寒冷刺激对部分睡眠剥夺小鼠血细胞参数的影响

目的：探讨寒冷刺激,部分睡眠剥夺,以及部分睡眠剥夺的基础上再给予寒冷刺激等处理对小鼠血细胞参数的影响。方法：昆明小鼠24只,随机均分为4组（n=6）：对照组、寒冷组、不完全睡眠剥夺组和不完全睡眠剥夺加寒冷组。寒冷组每天给予（10±2）℃的低温处理4h,不完全睡眠剥夺组每天18：00至次日9：00剥夺睡眠,不完全睡眠剥夺加寒冷组在每天睡眠剥夺的基础上再给予4h寒冷刺激。连续处理4d后采血检测血常规和血沉率。结果：与对照组相比,寒冷刺激可使小鼠血液中淋巴细胞含量（P〈0．05）以及百分比（P〈0．01）显著增加;部分睡眠剥夺可使小鼠血液白细胞和淋巴细胞含量（P〈0．05）及百分比（P〈0．01）明显降低。不完全睡眠剥夺加寒冷刺激处理后与其它三组相比小鼠血液白细胞和淋巴细胞含量显著降低（P〈0．01）,而血沉率则显著升高（P〈0．01）。结论：部分睡眠剥夺会抑制机体免疫能力,在部分剥夺睡眠的基础上再给予寒冷刺激则将进一步抑制机体免疫能力并使血沉率加快,降低机体对外界环境变化的适应能力。     

肝郁脾虚证模型大鼠下丘脑- 垂体- 肾上腺皮质的变化

对体长145．77±12．21cm,体重35．42±8．51g的月鳢（Channa asiatica）在正常摄食和饥饿4～20d状态下的几项血液指标进行了恻定。结果表明：饥饿组与对照组相比,随着饥饿时间的延长,月鳢的红细胞数量极显著减少（P〈0．01）;血红蛋白含量在前8d内是升高的,随后下降;血液中红细胞的渗透脆性有所上升,16d和20d差异显著（P〈0．05）;白细胞数量在整个饥饿期间一直呈上升趋势,在饥饿的第8d的测试中,白细胞数量的增加差异显著（P〈0．05）,12d以后的测试中白细胞数量的增加差异极显著（P〈0．01）。     

饥饿对小规格斑点叉尾鮰体重及鱼体生化组成的影响

将180尾初始体重为（41.9 ± 0.5）g的斑点叉尾鮰放养于18个室内容积为300L的水族箱中进行饥饿处理12周,每箱放10尾,每2周取样一次,研究长期饥饿胁迫下斑点叉尾鮰生长和鱼体生化组成的变化,尤其是肌肉氨基酸和脂肪酸组成的变化。实验结果表明：斑点叉尾鮰的体重、肥满度、脏体比、肝体比和脂体比随着饥饿时间的延长显著降低（p < 0.05）;饥饿过程中全鱼的蛋白质、脂肪含量显著下降（p < 0.05）,水分含量显著增加（p< 0.05）,而灰分含量变化不大;肌肉中蛋白质含量前6周变化不显著（p > 0.05）,而6周后显著降低（p < 0.05）,脂肪、糖原和灰分含量随着饥饿时间的延长显著降低（p < 0.05）,水分含量显著增加（p < 0.05）;肝脏中的蛋白质和水分含量随饥饿时间的延长显著上升（p < 0.05）,粗脂肪和糖原的含量则显著下降（p < 0.05）;在12周的饥饿时间内,总的必需氨基酸所占的百分比变化不显著（p > 0.05）,而总的必需氨基酸和总的非必需氨基酸的比值显著增加（p < 0.05）;斑点叉尾鮰肌肉中总饱和脂肪酸、总单不饱和脂肪酸和n-6 系列脂肪酸的百分含量显著下降（p < 0.05）,而总的n-3系列脂肪酸含量显著增加（p < 0.05）。n-3/n-6脂肪酸的比值随饥饿时间的延长而显著升高（p < 0.05）。以上结果说明：斑点叉尾鮰在饥饿条件下优先动用机体的贮存性物质（脂肪和糖原）作为能源的供给物,而后才被迫动用组织或器官中的功能性物质蛋白质;长期饥饿胁迫下斑点叉尾鮰优先保留必需氨基酸及EPA、DHA等高度不饱和脂肪酸。     

不同时间睡眠剥夺对大鼠运动能力及谷氨酰胺的影响

肠易激综合征模型WHBE兔神经-体液-内分泌系统调节的变化

目的观察肠易激综合征（IBS）模型WHBE兔神经内分泌激素和电解质水平的变化,探讨神经-体液-内分泌系统在IBS中的作用。方法以湿热环境应激加小剂量致泻剂诱导WHBE兔建立IBS模型,在造模9d和14d时取血分离血清,检测血清中5-羟色胺（5-HT）、多巴胺（DA）、促肾上腺皮质激素（ACTH）、皮质醇（COR）、β-内啡肽（β-EP）激素和K^＋、Na^＋、cl^-含量的变化,并以JW兔作对照。结果与正常对照组比,造模9d时WHBE兔的5-HT、DA、ACTH、β-EP、COR均显著升高（P〈0．05,P〈0．01）,Na^＋、K^＋含量均显著降低（P〈0．01）,而JW兔ACTH、β-EP、COR均显著升高（P〈0．05,P〈0．01）,K^＋含量显著降低（P〈0．05）;造模14d时WHBE兔5-HT、ACTH、β-EP均显著升高（P〈0．05,P〈0．01）,JW兔ACTH显著升高（P〈0．05）;相关分析显示,IBS模型中血清中5-HT、COR与Na^＋、K^＋浓度呈显著负相关（P〈0．05,P〈0．01）,血清中DA、β-EP水平与Na^＋、K^＋、Cl^-浓度呈显著负相关（P〈0．05,P〈0．01）,ACTH水平则与K^＋浓度呈显著负相关（P〈0．01）。结论IBS的发生不仅与HPA轴兴奋性升高有关,亦与体液因素有关,故神经-体液-内分泌系统参与了WHBE兔IBS的发生过程。     

不同脂肪源对管角螺生长和体成分的影响

在基础配合饲料中添加（4％）不同脂肪源[鱼油、猪油、豆油、花生油、混合油I（鱼油：豆油=1：1）、混合油Ⅱ（鱼油：猪油：豆油：花生油=1：1：1：1）]配制成6组实验饲料,对体重（2．23±0．05）g的管角螺幼螺进行60d的饲养试验。结果表明,鱼油组摄食率（34．10g／d·ind·10^3）、增重率（64．33％）和特定生长率（0．79％）最高,与混合油I组没有显著差异（P〉0．05）,并显著高于其他各组（P〈0．05）,最低的为猪油组;肝体比没有显著差异（P〉0．05）,猪油组最高（1．33）,混合油I组最低（1．22）;饲料转化率和存活率没有显著差异（P〉0．05）;鱼油组粗蛋白含量（肌肉：18．35％;肝脏：17．55％）显著高于猪油组、豆油组、花生油组和混合油Ⅱ组,猪油组（2．96％）和鱼油组（2．86％）肝脏粗脂肪含量显著高于其他各组（P〈0．05）,水分和灰分没有显著差异（P〉0．05）;鱼油组EPA（肌肉：4．44％;肝脏：5．89％）和DHA（肌肉：4．53％;肝脏：5．65％）含量,n-3／n-6（肌肉：1．57;肝脏：1．69）均最高．与混合油I组没有显著差异（P〉0．05）。从人体健康和生产角度来说,以混合油I作为管角螺脂肪源不但可以得到较好的生长效果,还可以节约饲料成本。

Partial compensatory growth in hybrid tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus × O. niloticus following food deprivation

The capacity of hybrid tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus × O. niloticus [23.2 ± 0.2 g (mean ± SE)] to show compensatory growth was assessed in an 8‐week experiment. Fish were deprived of feed for 1, 2 and 4 weeks, and then fed to satiation for 4 weeks; fish fed to satiation during the experiment served as control. Water temperature gradually declined from 28.1 to 25.5°C throughout the experiment. Specific growth rate (SGR) decreased with progressive food deprivation. At the end of deprivation, body weight was lower in the deprived fish than in the control. Fish deprived for 4 weeks exhibited lower contents of lipids and energy in whole body, and higher moisture content and ratio of protein to energy (P/E) than those of the control; they also consumed feed faster than the control when normal feeding was resumed. All deprived fish showed higher food intake (FI) than that of the control during re‐alimentation; however, enhanced SGR was only observed in the fish deprived for 4 weeks. There were no significant differences in digestibility of protein and energy, food efficiency (FE) or energy retention efficiency between the control and deprived fish. At the end of re‐alimentation, deprived fish failed to catch up in body weight with the control, while content of moisture, lipids and energy, and P/E in whole body of the deprived fish did not significantly differ from that of the control. The results of the experiment revealed that the hybrid tilapia reared in freshwater showed partial capacity for compensatory growth following food deprivation of 4 weeks, and that growth compensation was due mainly to increased FI, rather than to improved FE.     

Compensatory growth response in three-spined stickleback in relation to feed-deprivation protocols

Different protocols of food deprivation were used to bring two groups of juvenile three-spined sticklebacks Gasterosteus aculeatus to the same reduced body mass in comparison with a control group fed daily ad libitum . One group experienced 1 week of deprivation then 2 weeks on maintenance rations. The second group experienced 1 week of ad libitum feeding followed by 2 weeks of deprivation. The deprived groups were reduced to a mean mass of c . 80% of controls. The compensatory growth response shown when ad libitum feeding was resumed was independent of the trajectory by which the three-spined sticklebacks had reached the reduced body mass. The compensatory response was sufficient to return the deprived groups to the mass and length trajectories shown by the control group within 4 weeks. There was full compensation for dry mass and total lipid, but incomplete compensation for lipid-free dry mass. Hyperphagia and increased growth efficiency were present in the re-feeding phase, but there was a lag of a week before the hyperphagia was established. The consistency of the compensatory response of immature three-spined sticklebacks provides a potential model system for the analysis and prediction of appetite and growth in teleosts.     

Compensatory growth in the gibel carp following feed deprivation: temporal patterns in growth, nutrient deposition, feed intake and body composition

To investigate the nature of compenstory growth in fish, an 8 week study at 28°C was performed on juvenile gibel carp Carassius auratus gibelio weighing 6·6 g. Fish were starved for 0 (control), 1 (S1) or 2 (S2) weeks and then re-fed to satiation for 5 weeks. Weekly changes in weight gain, feed intake and body composition were monitored during re-feeding. No significant difference was found in final body weight between the three groups, indicating complete compensation in the deprived fish. The deprived groups caught up in body weight with that of the control after 2 weeks of re-feeding. Body fat: lean body mass ratio was restored to the control level within 1 week of re-feeding. In the re-feeding period, weekly gains in body weight, protein, lipid, ash and energy in the S1 group were significantly higher than in the controls for 1 week. For the S2 group, weekly gains in body weight, lipid, ash and energy were higher than in the controls for 2 weeks, and gain in protein was higher than in the controls for 3 weeks, though gain in body energy became elevated again during the last 2 weeks of the experiment. Feed intake remained higher than the control level for 3 weeks in the S1 group and 4 weeks in the S2 group. Growth efficiency was not significantly different among the three groups in any of the weeks during re-feeding. Compensatory responses in growth and especially feed intake tended to last longer than the recovery of body composition.     

Effect of cycles of feed deprivation on growth and food consumption of immature three-spined sticklebacks and European minnows

Individual juvenile three-spined sticklebacks Gasterosteus aculeatus and European minnow Phoxinus phoxinus , from sympatric populations, were subjected to four cycles of 1 week of food deprivation and 2 weeks of ad libitum feeding. Mean specific growth rate during the weeks of deprivation was negative and did not differ between species. The three-spined stickleback showed sufficient growth compensation to recover to the growth trajectory shown by control fish daily fed ad libitum . The compensation was generated by hyperphagia during the re-feeding periods, and in the last two periods of re-feeding, the gross growth efficiencies of deprived three-spined sticklebacks were greater than in control fish. The expression of the compensatory changes in growth and food consumption became clearer over the successive periods of re-feeding. The European minnow developed only a weak compensatory growth response and the mass trajectory of the deprived fish deviated more and more from the control trajectory. During re-feeding periods, there were no significant differences in food consumption or gross growth efficiency between control and deprived European minnows. The differences between the two species are discussed in terms of the possible costs of compensatory growth, the control of growth and differences in feeding biology.     

Compensatory growth in juvenile roach Rutilus caspicus: effect of starvation and re‐feeding on growth and digestive surface area

The aim of this study was to investigate compensatory growth in juvenile Rutilus caspicus during starvation and re‐feeding periods. The results confirmed the existence of compensatory growth in R. caspicus which depended on the duration of food deprivation. Complete compensatory growth occurred in the fish that were food deprived for at least 3 weeks. Starvation and re‐feeding had no significant effect on the digestive somatic index and intestinal surface areas in the fish that were food deprived for 1 week, while they showed a significant decrease and increase, during starvation and re‐feeding in the fish that were food deprived for 2 and 3 weeks. This knowledge may have application in aquaculture, as appropriate exploitation of compensatory growth can give increased growth rate and feeding efficiency.     

维生素E对中华鳖幼鳖生长、肝脏维生素E以及血清皮质醇含量的影响

为探讨维生素E(VE)对中华鳖(Pelodiscus sinensis)幼鳖的生长、肝脏VE和血清皮质醇的影响，通过特定生长率、高压液相色谱法和放免法，我们测定了中华鳖幼鳖的生长、肝脏VE和血清皮质醇含量。发现VE添加量为1000和5000mg／kg的两组，能明显降低中华鳖幼鳖的生长。维生素E添加量为500、1000和5000mg／kg的三组，肝脏维生素E含量明显高于对照组，VE添加量在0—1000mg／kg的范围时，肝脏VE的含量随着饲料中VE含量的增加呈指数式增加，并且在VE添加量为5000kg／kg的一组基本达到饱和。维生素E添加量为0和50mg／kg的2组，其血清皮质醇的平均值明显高于维生素E添加量为250、500、1000和5000mg／kg的4组的平均值。上述结果表明：高剂量的VE降低了中华鳖幼鳖的生长和血清皮质醇的含量；在一定剂量范围内，肝脏VE随着饲料中VE含量的增加而升高。     

高比例棉粕饲料中补充蛋氨酸对中华绒螯蟹幼蟹摄食、生长及抗氧化酶活性的影响

以40%棉粕为主的混合蛋白源制成基础饲料, 分别在其中添加0.00%、0.14%、0.28%、0.42%、0.56%蛋氨酸(分别记为0.00%Met、0.14%Met、0.28%Met、0.42%Met和0.56%Met), 配制了5种等氮等能的试验饲料, 以全鱼粉组(64.4%鱼粉)作为对照, 探讨了在高比例棉粕饲料中补充蛋氨酸对中华绒螯蟹幼蟹(0.390.02) g的摄食率、生长率和机体抗氧化酶活性的影响。结果表明: 与全鱼粉对照组相比, 0.42%Met组的增重率、特定生长率和饲料系数均无显著差异(P0.05), 但其显著高于0.00%Met、0.14%Met和0.28%Met组(P0.05); 增重率和特定生长率则显著高于0.56%Met组(P0.05); 从幼蟹的摄食量和蛋白质沉积率来看, 0.42%Met和0.28%Met组的摄食量与对照组相似, 当蛋氨酸的补充量低于0.28%或高于0.42%时, 幼蟹的摄食量均有所下降; 统计表明, 对照组的蛋白质沉积率最高(23.20%), 在各试验组中, 0.28%Met和0.42%Met组之间的蛋白质沉积率无显著差异(P0.05), 但显著高于0.00%Met、0.14%Met和0.56%Met组(P0.05); 分析幼蟹的肠道胰蛋白酶活性, 发现0.42%Met组与对照组之间无显著性差异(P0.05), 但均显著高于其他各试验组(P0.05); 0.28%Met、0.42%Met和0.56%Met处理组的血清丙二醛含量、超氧化物歧化酶活性和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶活性与对照组无显著差异(P0.05)。结果提示, 在高比例植物蛋白(40%棉粕)的基础饲料中, 补充0.42%Met能够显著提高中华绒螯蟹幼蟹的生长率、消化率和抗氧化酶的活性。       

Effect of starvation and re‐feeding on growth performance and content of plasma lipids,glucose and insulin in cultured juvenile Persian sturgeon (Acipenser persicus Borodin, 1897)

The effect of starvation and subsequent re‐feeding to satiation on compensatory growth performance, insulin and blood serum values were investigated in juvenile Persian sturgeon (Acipencer persicus) with an average weight 108.04 ± 0.28 g (mean ± SEM) and in the same rearing condition over an 8‐week period. Sturgeons were allocated to one of five feeding treatments: controls (C, continuous feeding), W1 (1 week starvation), W2 (2 weeks starvation), W3 (3 weeks starvation) and W4 (4 weeks starvation), followed by a single 4 weeks of re‐feeding to satiation. Changes in growth performance and blood serum indices were examined at the end of weeks 4 and 8. Body weight, specific growth rate (SGR), condition factor (CF) and weight gain were determined to have significantly decreased during starvation. Fish starved for 1 week reached the same weight as the control fish after re‐feeding for 4 weeks, indicating that complete compensatory growth occurred. Although the specific growth rate in W2, W3 and W4 fish was greater than that in the control fish after re‐feeding, W2, W3 and W4 fish did not reach the same body weight as control fish at the end of re‐feeding period, and showed partial compensation only. Blood plasma, glucose and insulin concentrations did not change significantly during starvation and re‐feeding (P > 0.05). This suggests that sturgeon are able to maintain glycaemia during starvation, probably due to their non‐carbohydrate dietary source. Plasma total lipid and triglyceride levels increased in starvation treatments, whereas the increases were significant only in W3 treatment (P < 0.05). After a 4‐week re‐feeding period, their levels decreased in comparison to the starvation periods. Increases in plasma total lipid and triglyceride levels appear to be due to their roles as preferred nutrients for mobilization in Persian sturgeon and the magnitude and duration of compensatory growth depended on the length of food deprivation.     

慢性氨暴露对中华鳖幼鳖生长及非特异性免疫反应的影响

在高密度养殖模式下,中华鳖经常暴露于高氨环境中。本研究评价了慢性氨暴露对中华鳖(Pelodiscussinensis)幼鳖生长及非特异性免疫功能的影响。将鳖(体重90.5±20.5g)饲养于非离子氨浓度分别为1.49mg/L(C1)、2.61mg/L(C2)和4.14mg/L(C3)的环境中84d,以不外加氨氮的自来水饲养组为对照(C0),实验期间各处理组均保持恒定的温度(29.5±0.5℃)和pH(7.8±0.1)值。氨暴露21、42和84d后测体重,氨暴露84d后取各实验组鳖的血样。在本实验设定浓度范围内,氨对中华鳖的生长及非特异性免疫指标如血清溶血活性、血清杀菌活性、血清溶菌活性和脾脏系数没有显著影响。但氨暴露组中华鳖血液和脾脏淋巴细胞α-乙酸萘酯酶(ANAE)阳性率与对照组相比均显著下降。研究结果表明中华鳖对高氨耐受能力比鱼类更强。     

The influence of previous feeding regime on the compensatory growth response of maturing and immature Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus

Alternating periods of food deprivation with those of unlimited provision of food depressed the growth of Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus , below that of controls. Fish that were deprived of food and then fed on alternate weeks (1:1) were larger than those that were exposed to periods of 1 5- or 3-week deprivation and feeding (1·5:1·5 or 3:3). On receiving excess food supplies following 24 weeks on the restricted feeding regimes the previously-restricted fish grew more rapidly than the controls. The greatest compensatory growth was displayed after the 3:3 regime, followed by the 1·5: 1·5 and then the 1:1 feeding regime. At the termination of the experiment there were no significant differences in body weight between fish fed according to the different regimes during the period that food restriction was imposed. Growth patterns of the immature males and females were similar, but mature males were significantly lighter than the immature fish by the end of the experiment. Both immature and maturing fish displayed a compensatory growth response on return to adequate feeding. Beginning food restriction in May did not influence the proportions of male fish ( c . 60%) which were mature in the autumn.
