小熊猫夏秋季的昼夜活动节律

2002年5~11月,在邛崃山系宝兴蜂桶寨自然保护区采用无线电遥测技术对6只野生小熊猫的昼夜活动节律进行了研究。结果表明,小熊猫具有晨昏活动的习性,5~11月的平均活动率为0.5286。小熊猫以白昼活动为主,兼夜间活动,白昼的活动率(0.5903±0.0538)高于夜晚活动率(0.4468±0.0413)。每昼夜有(52.86±9.8)%的时间处于活动状态,其中64.53%的活动时间在白昼,35.47%的活动时间在夜晚。每昼夜有两个活动高峰,分别出现在08∶00~10∶00和17∶30~18∶30。在休息时间的分配上,小熊猫每昼夜长休息平均2.07次,持续时间平均3.75小时;中等长度休息1.56次,持续1.59小时;短休息1.21次,持续0.84小时;长休息有44.06%在白昼,55.94%在夜晚。     

圈养白头叶猴春季昼夜活动节律

2008 年3 ～5 月,采用瞬时扫描法,对上海动物园5 只白头叶猴的行为进行24 h 昼夜连续观察。结果表明:春季圈养白头叶猴一天的活动起于06∶ 00 左右,结束于18∶ 00 或18∶ 30。白天白头叶猴的主要行为为休息、取食和移动,平均频次依次是13.79 次、4.75 次和2.18 次。夜间的主要行为为休息、移动和抓挠,平均频次依次是22.13 次、0.43 次和0.26 次。不同个体昼夜活动节律差异很大。其中,移动、理毛、玩耍和其它行为的差异显著。夜间无理毛和玩耍行为,移动行为在夜间21∶ 00, 00 ∶ 30, 03∶00 和04∶ 30 出现高峰。在22∶ 30, 01∶ 00, 02∶ 00, 03∶ 30, 04∶ 30 和05∶30 则出现抓挠高峰。这预示白头叶猴夜间休息时处于一个“轻睡眠”状态。同时,雌雄白头叶猴昼夜移动行为差异显著。     

原发性高血压患者红细胞抗高血压因子对高血压大鼠血压的影响

本工作观察了原发性高血压患者 (EHS) 红细胞抗高血压因子(AHF)对自发性高血压大鼠(SHR)和肾性高血压大鼠(RHR)及正常血压的 wistar Kyoto(WKY)大鼠和 wistar 大鼠的收缩压(SBP)和舒张压(DBP)的影响。结果如下:(1)从腹腔一次注入 AHF(1.6mg/kg体重),可明显降低 SHR 和 RHR 的 SBP。给 AHF10min 后,SHR 的 SBP 平均降低34.0 mmHg,至3h 恢复;RHR 在注射 AHF 后24h,SBP 平均降低92.5mmHg,且持续时间较长,至第九天仍维持在低水平。(2)从股静脉一次推注 AHF(0.8 mg/kg体重)后,SHR 和 RHR的 SBP 和 DBP 均有显著性降低,且对 RHR 作用时间较 SHR 长,对 DBP 作用时间较 SBP长。给 AHF 后12 min,SHR 的 SBP 和 DBP 分别降低42.8和48.2 mmHg;RHR 在给AHF 后25 min,SBP 和 DBP 分别降低38.3和42.5 mmHg;AHF 后5min,wistar大鼠 DBP 由96.7±12.9mmHg 降到 83.3±11.7 mmHg(P<0.05),而 SBP 无明显变化。AHF 的降压作用具有剂量依赖性。(3)AHF 可拮抗去甲肾上腺素对 Wistar 大鼠的升压作用。     

IL-2有抗高血压作用

美国纽约共济会医学研究实验室的Tuttle和Boppana首次报道,IL-2对自发性高血压大鼠(SHR)具有特异的抗高血压作用。在高血压形成前的42日龄SHR,注射一次巨丸剂式的人重组IL-2(5 000 U/kg),血压不再继续升高,在整个实验期,动脉压一直维持在70mmHg以下;而只给予介剂的对照组,血压则由42日龄时的70mmHg     

低氧增强清醒自发性高血压大鼠心血管-呼吸活动（英文）

激活外周化学感受器可以同时引起呼吸和心血管反射,此机制可能参与高血压形成过程中的交感神经过度激活。因此我们推测激活外周呼吸化学感受器可以显著增强高血压大鼠的心肺活动。本研究通过联合应用全身无创全体积描记术和无线生物信号遥测技术,观察急性低氧刺激对清醒自发性高血压大鼠(spontaneously hypertensive rat, SHR)和血压正常的对照Wistar-Kyoto (WKY)大鼠的肺通气、动脉血压和心率的影响。结果表明,急性低氧刺激引起SHR潮气量和每分通气量明显高于WKY大鼠,并且急性低氧引起SHR血压和心率的增加幅度更明显。切断支配大鼠颈动脉体的双侧窦神经后,SHR和WKY大鼠急性低氧通气反应均降低,并且两组间比较没有显著性差异。同时,在切断双侧窦神经后,急性低氧引起的两组动物的血压和心率变化均无显著性差异。本研究表明,急性低氧刺激显著增强SHR的心血管和呼吸效应,这可能与其颈动脉体外周呼吸化学感受器对低氧的敏感性增高有关。     

白头鹎体温、体重及能量代谢的昼夜节律

动物的生理昼夜节律是对环境昼夜变化的一种重要适应。为探讨白头鹎(Pycnonotus sinensis)体温、体重及能量代谢的昼夜节律变化,采用数字式温度计、电子天平及封闭式流体压力呼吸仪,测定了白头鹎的日体温、日体重和昼夜基础代谢率(BMR)。结果发现:白头鹎日体温及日体重变化存在显著差异,其中夜间体温明显低于白昼,并在4:00时体温呈现最低值;而白头鹎夜间体重显著低于白昼,在4:00时达到最小值,在18:00时达到最大值。另外,白头鹎的BMR也表现出了明显的昼夜差异,夜间BMR显著低于白昼。表明白头鹎体温、体重及能量代谢存在显著的昼夜节律变化,并调节达到自身生理能量平衡,从而适应昼夜环境变化。     

温度对红尾沙蜥代谢昼夜节律的影响

爬行动物很多生理、生化和行为指标都表现出昼夜节律。代谢昼夜节律不仅涉及内在因子的固有控制,而且受到多种外部因素的影响。为了探究温度对代谢昼夜节律的影响,在恒定的温度下(18℃和28℃)测定了红尾沙蜥Phrynocephalus erythrurus体温、心率、标准代谢率(SMR)和血糖浓度的昼夜变化。结果表明:(1)在2个温度下红尾沙蜥体温没有明显的昼夜变化;(2)昼间SMR明显高于夜间,18℃下SMR水平以及SMR昼夜变化的范围都低于28℃下的结果;(3)心率的变化也与代谢率的变化一致,但最低点提前了2 h;(4)28℃下的血糖浓度整体水平显著高于18℃下的,而波动规律却不同:28℃条件下白天平均值高于晚上,血糖浓度在16∶00显著高于20∶00、00∶00和12∶00;18℃条件下,血糖浓度在20∶00和08∶00明显低于00∶00和12∶00(P0.05),而在04∶00和16∶00处于中间水平。该研究证实了红尾沙蜥SMR、心率和血糖浓度等生理生化指标也存在明显的昼夜节律,虽然这种现象受环境温度的影响,但主要还是由内在因子决定,这可能与某些激素的分泌活动有关。     

秦岭羚牛春夏季昼夜活动节律与时间分配

1996年4~8月,在陕西省佛坪自然保护区内采用无线电遥测技术对4只秦岭羚牛（Budorcas taxicolor bedfordi）的活动规律进行了研究。春夏季羚牛的活动规律以白昼活动为主。羚牛每昼夜有69.95+11.06%的时间处于活动状态（n=40）,其中76.77%的活动时间是在日出后到日落前的白昼。白昼有3个活动高峰期,分别出现在06:00~08:00、10：00~12：00、18：00~20：00 3个时间段。在夜间羚牛只有1个活动高峰期,通常出现在24：00至次日凌晨01：00的时间段。野外观察证实,羚牛白昼的3个活动高峰期与羚牛群体活跃采食的时间吻合。羚牛的昼夜活动节律的形成与变化,可能会受到诸如光照、温度、雨等气候条件的影响。每天的黎明阶段（06：00~07：00）及黄昏阶段（18：30~19：30）是羚牛活动最频繁的时候,平均活动率在90%以上。大雨期间羚牛常常站立或卧地休息。此外,羚牛昼夜活动节律和时间分配方面的差异在年龄上也有所体现。     

不同周龄自发性高血压大鼠的动态血压变化与心脏的组织学改变

目的测量不同周龄自发性高血压(SHR)的收缩压、舒张压、平均压、心率、血流量及血流速,为SHR及有关高血压方面的实验研究提供基础数据参考。方法采用CODATM无创血压仪,测量34只8～15周龄SHR的收缩压、舒张压、平均压、心率、血流量及血流速。在最后一周测量完血压值后,采用45mg/kg的戊巴比妥钠,腹腔注射麻醉动物,进行处死。采取胸主动脉、肺、肾、心脏和大脑,经10%的福尔马林溶液固定常规脱水,包埋,切片,进行HE染色。结果8～15周龄SHR的收缩压和心率值在各周之间均无统计学差异(P0.05)。舒张压的比较中,第8周与第15周之间存在显著差异(P0.05)。平均压的比较中,第8周与第15周之间存在显著差异(P0.05)。在组织学观察中,40%的心肌细胞变性。结论SHR的舒张压、收缩压及平均压随周龄的增加均有上升的趋势。而心率、血流速及血流量均有下降的趋势,但是在各周存在一定的波动。     

Altered Orcadian Rhythms of Blood Pressure and Heart Rate in Non-Hemodialysis Chronic Renal Failure

The extended use of ambulatory monitoring has permitted the identification of many conditions in which the circadian rhythm of blood pressure is altered. The common denominator seems to be an impairment of the autonomic nervous system function. We examined whether the circadian blood pressure rhythm is altered in chronic renal failure (where autonomic dysfunction is usually present) by using a standardized chronobiological inferential statistical method in hospitalized subjects. For this purpose, a group of 30 non-hemodialysis hypertensive patients with chronic renal failure was compared with a second group of 30 patients affected by uncomplicated mild-to-moderate essential hypertension. The two groups were matched by age, sex and circadian mesors of blood pressure. Diet, meal times, sleep and activity logs were standardized. Blood pressure and heart rate recordings were obtained by using an automatic oscillometric recorder and subsequently analyzed according to the cosinor method. A mean circadian rhythm of blood pressure was documented in both groups, but while the mean acrophases occurred between 2 and 3 p.m. in essential hypertension, in renal failure they were between 11 p.m. and midnight for blood pressure and around 7 p.m. for heart rate. In addition, the mean circadian amplitudes were significantly lower in renal failure, while the mean circadian mesor of heart rate was significantly higher. Our data demonstrate that the circadian rhythms of blood pressure and heart rate are altered also in hypertension due to chronic renal failure.

Endogenous opioids and opiate antagonists modulate the blood pressure of the spontaneously hypertensive rat

Endogenous opioids have been implicated as modulators of the central nervous system regulation of blood pressure and heart rate. Whether these neuropeptides participate in blood pressure regulation in hypertension is unknown. To begin to study this question, we examined the response to opiate antagonists and agonists in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) and the normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rat. The long-acting opiate antagonist naltrexone, 2.5 micrograms/kg, was injected into the lateral ventricle of the brain in awake, freely-moving SHR and produced a significant 19 mmHg decrease in mean arterial blood pressure compared to basal blood pressure (p less than 0.01); a decrease was not observed at a two logarithm lower dose. In contrast, naltrexone had no effect on the blood pressure of normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. To evaluate a possible regulatory role for the predominantly kappa receptor active opioids, alpha- and beta-neo-endorphin, 10 micrograms each, was administered to SHR on separate days by intracerebroventricular injection. alpha- and beta-neo-endorphin caused significant decreases in mean arterial blood pressure of 11 and 9 mmHg respectively, effects reversed by pre-treatment with the opiate antagonist, naloxone. Heart rate was unaffected by any of the injected opioids or antagonists. Our naltrexone results support the hypothesis that an endogenous opioid(s) contributes to the hypertensive state of the SHR. Additionally, alpha- and beta-neo-endorphin can lower blood pressure in this model.     

Circadian blood pressure rhythm in primary and secondary hypertension.

Circadian blood pressure variability was recorded in patients with primary hypertension and with different forms of secondary hypertension using ambulatory 24-h blood pressure measurement. A group of 20 patients with different forms of secondary hypertension was compared with a matched group of patients with primary hypertension. Although the mean 24-h blood pressure was not different between the two groups, the patients with secondary hypertension had significantly higher systolic blood pressure during sleep and higher systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the early morning, compared with the primary hypertension group. This nocturnal blood pressure fall was then investigated in various groups of patients with different forms of secondary hypertension and compared with normotensives and patients with primary hypertension. Patients with mild primary hypertension (n = 152) and with severe primary hypertension (n = 30) had the same blood pressure fall (14-16 mm Hg systolic and diastolic) during the night (23:00-05:00 h) as normotensives (n = 20). However, in patients with renoparenchymal hypertension (n = 29), renovascular hypertensions (n = 20), hyperaldosteronism (n = 6), and hyperthyroidism (n = 14), the nocturnal blood pressure fall was significantly (p less than 0.01) reduced. One patient with coarctation of the aorta and nine patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and elevated blood pressure had a normal circadian blood pressure profile with a normal nocturnal blood pressure fall. The heart rate decrease during the night was equal in all patient groups. Ambulatory blood pressure measurement allows blood pressure recording under everyday conditions, including nighttime. In primary hypertension the blood pressure variability exhibits the same circadian variation as in normotension, showing a marked nocturnal fall.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Circadian Rhythms of Renal Hemodynamics in Unanesthetized, Unrestrained Rats

Catheters were placed in the jugular vein and femoral artery of male Sprague-Dawley rats and connected to a specially designed perfusor for continuous constant infusion of 0.9% NaCl and a syringe to perform simultaneous and intermittent blood collections. This permitted continuous 24-h study of renal hemodynamics, estimated by inulin (C_in) and p-amino-hippuric acid (C_PAH) clearances; C_in represents glomerular filtration rate and C_PAH renal plasma flow. Animals were individually housed in metabolism cages in a controlled environment with light/dark 12:12 h. Urine was collected every 4 h (12:00, 16:00, 20:00, 24:00, 04:00, and 08:00) and blood sampled at the midpoint of urine collection periods. Urine and plasma sodium, potassium, inulin, and PAH were spectrophotometrically assessed. During continuous infusion of isotonic saline, C_in exhibited circadian changes with large decrease between 12:00 and 20:00 h (0.9 ± 0.2 ml/min) and acrophase at 00:30 h. Rhythmicity in C_PAH was similar with the minimum between 16:00 and 20:00 h (2.5 ± 0.3 ml/min) and peak between 00:00 and 04:00 h (acrophase at 00:25 h). Water and electrolyte excretion were also circadian rhythmic with a similar nighttime enhancement and daytime minimum. Such circadian changes persisted during continuous 0.9% NaCl infusion for several consecutive days. The unanesthetized, unrestrained rat model enables investigations in renal chronopharmacology and chronotoxicology.     

Chronotherapy in Coronary Heart Disease: Comparison of Two Nitrate Treatments

The purpose of this study was to assess the ischemic burden and the hemodynamic changes during daily activities in patients with coronary heart disease. Three exercise tests were performed during the day (10:00 a.m., 2:00 p.m., 6:00 p.m.), recording ST-segment depression, pulmonary artery pressure, pulmonary wedge pressure, and cardiac output as well as heart rate and systemic blood pressure during placebo and nitrate therapy. With placebo as well as nitrate therapy there was a gradual increase of ischemia and preload and a decrease of cardiac output during the day. High nitrate concentrations led to a significant reduction of both preload and ST depression with a marked circadian phase dependency of cardiovascular effects.

Effects of Amlodipine on Orcadian Rhythms in Blood Pressure, Heart Rate, and Motility: A Telemetric Study in Rats

In male Wistar rats [light (L): 07:00-19:00 h, dark (D): 19:00-07:00 h], the effects of the calcium channel blocker amlodipine (1, 3, 10 mg/kg i.p.) on blood pressure, heart rate, and motor activity were studied by telemetric monitoring. Amlodipine was injected either at 07:00 h or at 19:00 h. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure were dose-dependently decreased with more pronounced effects in the dark span, ED₅₀ values in D were about seven times lower than in L. In contrast, the dose-dependent increase in heart rate was more pronounced in L than in D. No significant effects of amlodipine were found on motor activity. The study gives evidence for a circadian phase-dependency in the cardiovascular effects amlodipine in rats.     

Circadian periodicity of cerebral blood flow revealed by laser-Doppler flowmetry in awake rats: relation to blood pressure and activity

Cardiovascular parameters such as arterial blood pressure (ABP) and heart rate display pronounced circadian variation. The present study was performed to detect whether there is a circadian periodicity in the regulation of cerebral perfusion. Normotensive Sprague-Dawley rats (SDR, approximately 15 wk old) and hypertensive (mREN2)27 transgenic rats (TGR, approximately 12 wk old) were instrumented in the abdominal aorta with a blood pressure sensor coupled to a telemetry system for continuous recording of ABP, heart rate, and locomotor activity. After 5-12 days, a laser-Doppler flow (LDF) probe was attached to the skull by means of a guiding device to measure changes in brain cortical blood flow (CBF). After the animals recovered from anesthesia, measurements were taken for 3-4 days. The time series were analyzed with respect to the midline estimating statistic of rhythm (i.e., mean value of a periodic event after fit to a cosine function), amplitude, and acrophase (i.e., phase angle that corresponds to the peak of a given period) of the 24-h period. The LDF signal displayed a significant circadian rhythm, with the peak occurring at around midnight in SDR and TGR, despite inverse periodicity of ABP in TGR. This finding suggests independence of LDF periodicity from ABP regulation. Furthermore, the acrophase of the LDF was consistently found before the acrophase of the activity. From the present data, it is concluded that there is a circadian periodicity in the regulation of cerebral perfusion that is independent of circadian changes in ABP and probably is also independent of locomotor activity. The presence of a circadian periodicity in CBF may have implications for the occurrence of diurnal alterations in cerebrovascular events in humans.
