盐度对花鲈幼鱼消化酶和抗氧化系统的影响

为探讨不同盐度对花鲈（Lateolabrax maculatus）幼鱼消化酶活性和抗氧化水平的影响,经过30 d养殖,应用试剂盒检测了盐度0、10、20、30条件下胃、幽门盲囊及肠道中胃蛋白酶、α-淀粉酶、脂肪酶活力,肝和肌肉组织中超氧化物歧化酶、过氧化氢酶的活力以及总抗氧化能力和丙二醛含量。结果显示,胃蛋白酶活力在0盐度组最高,4个盐度组间具有显著性差异（P < 0.05）;同一盐度组,胃蛋白酶活性在胃组织中高于幽门盲囊和肠道。随着盐度的增加,胃组织的α-淀粉酶活力呈逐渐降低趋势,幽门盲囊和肠道的α-淀粉酶活力则逐渐升高。胃组织中,0盐度组脂肪酶有较高活性,10盐度组脂肪酶活性最低,20和30盐度组酶活性逐渐升高,并在30盐度组达最大值,4个盐度组之间差异显著（P < 0.05）;幽门盲囊中,脂肪酶活力随盐度的增加,呈现先升高后降低趋势;肠组织中,0盐度和10盐度组脂肪酶酶活力差异不显著（P > 0.05）,20盐度和30盐度组增加显著（P < 0.05）。肝组织超氧化物歧化酶和过氧化氢酶在0盐度组活性最高,随盐度变化,呈现相似的变化趋势;肌肉中超氧化物歧化酶和过氧化氢酶活性整体上随盐度增高有上升趋势。0盐度组和30盐度组肝组织丙二醛含量和总抗氧化能力观测值都较高。在肌肉中,丙二醛含量在10盐度组达到较高值,随后盐度增加丙二醛含量变化不显著（P > 0.05）;总抗氧化能力含量也在10盐度组时达到最高值,其余组均下降。本研究认为,花鲈幼鱼不同消化酶活性所需的盐度条件各有差异,同时抗氧化系统能够响应不同的盐度条件。

大豆低聚糖对牙鲆营养效应的研究：II消化率和消化生理

本试验比较研究了不同蛋白源（鱼粉,FM;大豆分离蛋白,SPI）基础饲料中添加大豆低聚糖（SBOS）对牙鲆（Paralichthys olivaceus）消化道（胃、幽门盲囊、前肠、中肠和后肠）和肝脏消化酶活性、饲料表观消化率和消化道（胃、小肠）组织结构的影响。分别以FM、SPI作为主要蛋白源,配制了4种等氮等能饲料。其中,饲料FM、SP1分别以FM、SPI作为主要蛋白源;饲料FMO、SPIO分别在饲料FM、SPI基础上添加10％SBOS（水苏糖：2．61％;棉籽糖：0．61％）。试验表明：①饲料中添加SBOS普遍降低了牙鲆消化道和肝脏蛋白酶活性,但差异均不显著（P〉O．05）。FM基础饲料中添加SBOS显著降低了肝脏脂肪酶活性（P〈0．05）,而对消化道脂肪酶活性无显著影响;SPI基础饲料中添加SBOS显著提高了前肠脂肪酶活性,降低了胃和中肠脂肪酶的活性,而对幽门盲囊、后肠和肝脏脂肪酶活性均无显著影响。FM基础饲料中添加SBOS显著降低了中肠淀粉酶活性,提高了胃淀粉酶活性（P〈0．05）,而对幽门盲囊、前肠、后肠和肝脏淀粉酶活性无显著影响;SPI基础饲料中添加SBOS显著提高了胃和前肠淀粉酶活性,降低了中肠脂肪酶活性（P〈0．05）,而对幽门盲囊、后肠和肝脏淀粉酶活性无显著影响;②FM基础饲料中添加SBOS显著降低了饲料干物质表观消化率（P〈0．05）,而对粗蛋白、粗脂肪和能量表观消化率均无显著影响（P〉0．05）。SPI基础饲料中添加SBOS对干物质、粗蛋白、粗脂肪和能量表观消化率均无显著影响;③饲料中添加SBOS对牙鲆胃和小肠组织结构均无明显负面影响。试验结果表明,饲料中添加SBOS对牙鲆消化道和肝脏消化酶活性、饲料表观消化率和消化道组织结构均没有表现出明显的负面效应;大豆蛋白源中含有的SBOS不是影响牙鲆对其利用率差的主要因素。

Characteristics of the membranes of the pellicle of the ciliatePseudomicrothorax dubius

Summary The membranes of the pellicle of the ciliatePseudomicrothorax dubius are investigated using thin section electron microscopy and freeze-fracture replicas. The plasma membrane is covered by a surface coat and is connected to the outer alveolar membrane by short, sometimes branched, bridges. The inner alveolar membrane is coated on both sides. The epiplasm lies in intimate contact with the cytoplasmic surface of this membrane, and there is a corresponding deposit on the other surface. This deposit is regularly striated.The epiplasmic layer and the alveoli are interrupted at sites of cytotic activity,e.g., the attachment sites of trichocysts, the cytoproct, and the parasomal sacs. The striated deposit ends where the epiplasm ends, indicating a direct relationship between these two epimembranous layers.There is a deposit along the sides of the first part of the tip of the trichocysts, and in this region the trichocyst membrane is free of intramembranous particles.The membrane of the parasomal sacs has a coat on both surfaces. That on the extraplasmic surface is similar to the surface coat of the plasma membrane. The origin of the cytoplasmic coat is unknown. The cytotic activity of these sacs is indicated by their highly irregular profiles.     

The early development of the tail and the transformation of the shape of the nucleus of the spermatid of the domestic fowl,Gallus gallus

Summary The differentiation of the spermatid, especially in reference to the formation of the flagellum, and transformation of the shape of the nucleus was investigated in the domestic fowl.In the early stage of the spermatid, a prominent Golgi apparatus appears around the centrioles. The Golgi vesicles then surround the axial-filament complex which develops from the distal centriole. These vesicles fuse to form continuous membrane at the earliest stage of flagellar formation, and in the succeeding stage Golgi lamellae are attached to the plasma membrane of the developing flagellum. From these observations, it is assumed that Golgi apparatus may be a source of the membrane system of the flagellum.The microtubules distributed around the nucleus form the circular manchette. The anterior region of the nucleus with the manchette is cylindrical in shape and the posterior region without it remains irregular in shape. When the circular manchette has been completed, the whole nucleus acquires a slender cylindrical shape. The circular manchette then changes into the longitudinal manchette. The nuclei of spermatids without a longitudinal manchette are abnormal in shape. In view of these observations it is assumed that the nuclear shaping of the spermatid may be accomplished by circular manchette and the maintenance of shape of the elongated nucleus by longitudinal manchette.The authors wish to thank Mr. Takayuki Mori for his helpful suggestions and technical advices     

Characterization of the composition of the aqueous humor and the vitreous body of the eye of the frog Rana temporaria L

This study aimed to analyze the aqueous humor (AH) and the vitreous body (VB) of the eye of the adult frog Rana temporaria L. as a representative species of amphibians, which lead a semi-terrestrial life. The presence of collagen, albumin, uric acid and electron donors was shown in both media; however, there are slight differences in their concentrations. To determine collagen, a spectral-fluorescent probe, cyanine dye, was used. The presence of collagen in AH of the frog was found at the first time. The total content of electron donors (ascorbic and uric acids, tryptophan, and tyrosine) in VB and HA was roughly estimated at ~ 1.5 × 10^− 4 mol/L. Both VB and AH absorb light in similar UV regions. The total protein and albumin contents in AH were found to be somewhat higher than those in VB. The uric acid content was at an equally low level in both intraocular media. It is supposed that the similarity of VB and AH compositions shown in this work is due to some exchange between VB and AH contents in the course of accommodation. The role of intraocular fluids in physiological functions of the eye and in protecting the retina against UV light is discussed.     

Observations on the permeability of the choriocapillaris of the eye

Summary The choriocapillaris is a fenestrated capillary bed located posterior to the retinal pigment epithelium. It serves as the main source of supply to the photoreceptors, retinal pigment epithelium, and other cells of the outer retina. The permeability of these capillaries to intravenously injected ferritin (MW — approx. 480,000; mol. diam. 11 nm) was examined in the mouse, rabbit, and guinea pig, each of which is characterized by a different type of retinal vascularization. In all three species, the bulk of the ferritin remained in the capillary lumina, where it appeared to be blocked at the level of the diaphragmed fenestrae. Some ferritin was present in endothelial cell vacuoles. The results confirm previous work on the rat choriocapillaris and indicate that the barrier function of the choriocapillary endothelium is present even among species in which the retinal circulation differs significantly.Supported by NIH grant EY03418
