We detected the presence of fructosamine in human and bovine semen. In seminal plasma of healthy normozoospermic men (N = 17) fructosamine was found in 53% of the cases (fru+). In fru+ semen samples the concentration of fructosamine was (mean +/- S.E.M., N = 9) 0.45 +/- 0.09 mmol/L and varied from 0.15 to 0.75 mmol/L. It was 3-12 times lower than in blood serum of healthy men. In semen of infertile men (N = 57) fructosamine was present only in 21% of the cases and its concentration was lower than in fertile men i.e. (mean +/- S.E.M., N = 12) 0.27 +/- 0.007 mmol/L. In bulls (N = 98) fructosamine was found in semen of 82% of animals. In fru+ semen samples the concentration of fructosamine was (mean +/- S.E.M., N = 80) 0.77 +/- 0.12 mmol/L and varied from 0.30 to 1.15 mmol/L. We did not find any correlation between the concentration of fructosamine on one hand, and that of fructose and glucose on the other hand, in either human or bull semen. The difference in the frequency of fructosamine appearance in semen of fertile and infertile men suggests that fructosamine may be in some way involved in the process of fertilisation. 相似文献

Changes in the biological value of sperm depending on the time of the first ejaculation are presented. A control group included 194 boys with normal puberty in whom a biologic value of sperm was evaluated in dependence of the first ejaculation. In all time points a biological value of sperm was significantly worse in the delayed puberty than that in the control group. Twenty four months following the first ejaculation sperm was not normal in any case whereas in the control group normospermia prevailed in this period of time. 相似文献

Transgenic mice overexpressing the inflammatory cytokine TNF-alpha in the heart develop a progressive heart failure syndrome characterized by biventricular dilatation, decreased ejection fraction, decreased survival compared with non-transgenic littermates, and earlier pathology in males. TNF-alpha mice (TNF1.6) develop atrial arrhythmias on ambulatory telemetry monitoring that worsen with age and are more severe in males. We performed in vivo electrophysiological testing in transgenic and control mice, ex vivo optical mapping of voltage in the atria of isolated perfused TNF1.6 hearts, and in vitro studies on isolated atrial muscle and cells to study the mechanisms that lead to the spontaneous arrhythmias. Programmed stimulation induces atrial arrhythmias (n = 8/32) in TNF1.6 but not in control mice (n = 0/37), with a higher inducibility in males. In the isolated perfused hearts, programmed stimulation with single extra beats elicits reentrant atrial arrhythmias (n = 6/6) in TNF1.6 but not control hearts due to slow heterogeneous conduction of the premature beats. Lowering extracellular Ca(2+) normalizes conduction and prevents the arrhythmias. Atrial muscle and cells from TNF1.6 compared with control mice exhibit increased collagen deposition, decreased contractile function, and abnormal systolic and diastolic Ca(2+) handling. Thus abnormalities in action potential propagation and Ca(2+) handling contribute to the initiation of atrial arrhythmias in this mouse model of heart failure. 相似文献

In this study, AR42J pancreatic acinar cells were used to investigate if glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) or glucagon might influence amylase release and acinar cell function. We first confirmed the presence of GLP-1 receptors on AR42J cells by reverse trasncriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), Western blotting, and partial sequencing analysis. While cholecystokinin (CCK) increased amylase release from AR42J cells, GLP-1, alone or in the presence of CCK, had no effect on amylase release but both CCK and GLP-1 increased intracellular calcium. Similar to GLP-1, glucagon increased both cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and intracellular calcium in AR42J cells but it actually decreased CCK-mediated amylase release (n = 20, P < 0.01). CCK stimulation resulted in an increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of several cellular proteins, unlike GLP-1 treatment, where no such increased phosphorylation was seen. Instead, GLP-1 decreased such protein phosphorylations. Genestein blocked CCK-induced phosphorylation events and amylase secretion while vanadate increased amylase secretion. These results provide evidence that tyrosine phosphorylation is necessary for amylase release and that signaling through GLP-1 receptors does not mediate amylase release in AR42J cells. J. Cell.

Molecular evolution of mitochondrial 12S RNA and cytochrome b sequences in the pantherine lineage of Felidae 总被引:4,自引:2,他引:2
DNA sequence comparisons of two mitochondrial DNA genes were used to infer
phylogenetic relationships among 17 Felidae species, notably 15 in the
previously described pantherine lineage. The polymerase chain reaction
(PCR) was used to generate sequences of 358 base pairs of the mitochondrial
12S RNA gene and 289 base pairs of the cytochrome b protein coding gene.
DNA sequences were compared within and between 17 felid and five nonfelid
carnivore species. Evolutionary trees were constructed using phenetic,
cladistic, and maximum likelihood algorithms. The combined results
suggested several phylogenetic relationships including (1) the recognition
of a recently evolved monophyletic genus Panthera consisting of Panthera
leo, P. pardus, P. onca, P. uncia, P. tigris, and Neofelis nebulosa; (2)
the recent common ancestry of Acinonyx jubatus, the African cheetah, and
Puma concolor, the American puma; and (3) two golden cat species, Profelis
temmincki and Profelis aurata, are not sister species, and the latter is
strongly associated with Caracal caracal. These data add to the growing
database of vertebrate mtDNA sequences and, given the relatively recent
divergence among the felids represented here (1-10 Myr), allow 12S and
cytochrome b sequence evolution to be addressed over a time scale different
from those addressed in most work on vertebrate mtDNA.
