Channel catfish leucocytes cryopreserved with glycerol or dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) had significantly higher ( P <0.05) viability and recovery rates than did cells cryopreserved with methanol. After 7 days of frozen storage, a 24 to 27% reduction of viability was observed for cells cryopreserved with glycerol; a 25 to 43% reduction for cells frozen with DMSO, and a 67 to 100% reduction for cells frozen with methanol. The concentration of cryoprotectants affected the viability of cryopreserved cells significantly ( p <0.05). The viability reduction was 36% for cells frozen with 5% of cryoprotectants, 30% for cells frozen with 10% of cryoprotectants, and 49% for cells frozen with 15% of cryoprotectants. The viability of cells frozen at the slower rate (-2.7°C min−1 ) was significantly higher ( p <0.05) than that of cells frozen at the faster rate (-45°C min−1 ). Best results were obtained for cells cryopreserved with 10% of glycerol or DMSO and frozen at the slower rate. The chromosomes prepared from cells cryopreserved using this procedure were identical to those prepared from fresh cells, and to those reported in the literature for channel Catfish. 相似文献

The anabolic action of intermittent parathyroid hormone on cortical bone depends partly on its ability to induce nitric oxide‐mediated vasorelaxation in BALB/c mice 下载免费PDF全文

There is strong evidence that vasodilatory nitric oxide (NO) donors have anabolic effects on bone in humans. Parathyroid hormone (PTH), the only osteoanabolic drug currently approved, is also a vasodilator. We investigated whether the NO synthase inhibitor L‐NAME might alter the effect of PTH on bone by blocking its vasodilatory effect. BALB/c mice received 28 daily injections of PTH[1–34] (80 µg/kg/day) or L‐NAME (30 mg/kg/day), alone or in combination. Hindlimb blood perfusion was measured by laser Doppler imaging. Bone architecture, turnover and mechanical properties in the femur were analysed respectively by micro‐CT, histomorphometry and three‐point bending. PTH increased hindlimb blood flow by >30% within 10 min of injection (P < 0.001). Co‐treatment with L‐NAME blocked the action of PTH on blood flow, whereas L‐NAME alone had no effect. PTH treatment increased femoral cortical bone volume and formation rate by 20% and 110%, respectively (P < 0.001). PTH had no effect on trabecular bone volume in the femoral metaphysis although trabecular thickness and number were increased and decreased by 25%, respectively. Co‐treatment with L‐NAME restricted the PTH‐stimulated increase in cortical bone formation but had no clear‐cut effects in trabecular bone. Co‐treatment with L‐NAME did not affect the mechanical strength in femurs induced by iPTH. These results suggest that NO‐mediated vasorelaxation plays partly a role in the anabolic action of PTH on cortical bone. © 2016 The Authors.

Nuclear gene trees and the phylogenetic relationships of the mangabeys (Primates: Papionini) 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
Phylogenetic relationships of mangabeys within the Old World monkey tribe
Papionini are inferred from analyses of nuclear DNA sequences from five
unlinked loci. The following conclusions are strongly supported, based on
congruence among trees derived for the five separate gene regions: (1)
mangabeys are polyphyletic within the Papionini; (2) Cercocebus is the
sister taxon to the genus Mandrillus; and (3) Lophocebus belongs to a clade
with Papio and Theropithecus, with Papio as its most likely sister taxon.
Morphologically based phylogenies positing mangabey monophyly were
evaluated by mapping the sequences for each locus on these trees. The data
seem to fit these trees poorly in both maximum-parsimony and likelihood
analyses. Incongruence among nuclear gene trees occurred in the
interrelationships among Lophocebus, Papio, and Theropithecus. Several
factors that may account for this incongruence are discussed, including
sampling error, random lineage sorting, and introgression.

The homologous sequences of human or mouse SOX1, SOX4 and SOX11 , and one novel Sox gene (named Ccf-SoxN ) were identified in the genome of channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus . Identification of these genes is a potential step in understanding development regulations including sex determination in channel catfish. 相似文献

Despite some 26 published reports addressing oyster sperm cryopreservation, systematic factor optimization is lacking, and sperm cryopreservation has not yet found application in aquaculture on a commercial scale. In this study, the effects of cooling rate, single or combined cryoprotectants at various concentrations, equilibration time (exposure to cryoprotectant), straw size, and cooling method were evaluated for protocol optimization of shipped sperm samples from diploid oysters. Evaluation of cooling rates revealed an optimal rate of 5 degrees C/min to -30 degrees C followed by cooling at 45 degrees C/min to -80 degrees C before plunging into liquid nitrogen. Screening of single or combined cryoprotectants at various concentrations suggested that a low concentration (2%) of polyethylene glycol (FW 200) was effective in retaining post-thaw motility and fertilizing capability when combined with permeating cryoprotetcants such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), methanol (MeOH), and propylene glycol (P-glycol). However, polyethylene glycol alone was not as effective as MeOH, DMSO, and P-glycol when using the same methods. The highest post-thaw motility (70%) and percent fertilization (98%) were obtained for samples cryopreserved with 6% MeOH. However, this does not exclude other cryoprotectants such as DMSO or P-glycol identified as effective agents in other studies. There was no significant difference in post-thaw motility between straw sizes of 0.25- and 0.5-ml. Equilibration time (exposure to cryoprotectant) of 60 min could be beneficial when the cryoprotectant concentration is low and solution is added in a step-wise fashion at low temperature. Differences in post-thaw sperm quality (e.g., motility or percent fertilization) among individual males were evident in this research. As a consequence, a generalized classification describing males with different tolerances (broad, intermediate, and narrow) to cryopreservation was developed. This classification could be applied to strain or species differences in tolerances to the cryopreservation process. The present study demonstrated that oyster sperm could be collected and shipped chilled to another facility for cryopreservation, and that it could be shipped back to the hatchery for fertilization performed at a production scale yielding live larvae with >90% fertilization. Given the existence of facilities for commercial-scale cryopreservation of dairy bull sperm, the methods developed in the present study for oysters provide a template for the potential commercialization of cryopreserved sperm in aquatic species. 相似文献

Gamete preservation techniques are essential in animal husbandry as well as in assisted reproduction for humans. In this research we attempted to use 3 different sperm preservation techniques in combination with newly developed techniques for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) to fertilize eggs of a teleost fish, the Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Of 47 eggs injected with fresh sperm, 11 (23%) were fertilized, 5 developed abnormally, and 4 developed normally and hatched; from these, one grew to adulthood. Nuclear DNA content of 4 of the abnormal embryos indicated that they were diploid. Flow cytometric analysis of a blood sample from the surviving ICSI fish collected 2 months after fertilization indicated that the fish was diploid. Of 45 eggs injected with cryopreserved sperm, 9 (20%) developed to the blastula stage. Of 40 eggs injected with sperm preserved in 70% methanol, none were fertilized. No injections were possible with freeze-dried Nile tilapia sperm owing to technical difficulties during manipulation. Although the findings described here are limited, they provide the first steps toward using sperm preservation methods in addition to cryopreservation for fertilization in fishes. 相似文献
