The author continues in aquatic vertebrates the study of the evolution of the respiratory stereotype initiated in the XIIth note of this series and carried out in the light of the systemic conception (Bertalanffy), of Needham's theory of order in nature, and of the theory of biological stereotypes (Marza, Repciuc, Eskenasy). The stability of some characters of the respiratory stereotype inherited by vertebrates from invertebrates is pointed out. The respiratory stereotype in vertebrates gradually passed from the respiration of water-dissolved oxygen through branchiae and skin, to the concomitant uptake of this form and of air oxygen (through buccopharyngeal formations, gaseous bladder or rudimentary lungs in osseous fishes), the double respiration (in Amphibia) and later the air respiration in Reptilia. The five steps of this gradual evolution are described, as well as the conditions of the evolution from crossopterygians to Tetrapoda (amphibians and reptiles). 相似文献

This review explores the long‐standing question: ‘Why do cardiovascular shunts occur?’ An historical perspective is provided on previous research into cardiac shunts in vertebrates that continues to shape current views. Cardiac shunts and when they occur is then described for vertebrates. Nearly 20 different functional reasons have been proposed as specific causes of shunts, ranging from energy conservation to improved gas exchange, and including a plethora of functions related to thermoregulation, digestion and haemodynamics. It has even been suggested that shunts are merely an evolutionary or developmental relic. Having considered the various hypotheses involving cardiovascular shunting in vertebrates, this review then takes a non‐traditional approach. Rather than attempting to identify the single ‘correct’ reason for the occurrence of shunts, we advance a more holistic, integrative approach that embraces multiple, non‐exclusive suites of proposed causes for shunts, and indicates how these varied functions might at least co‐exist, if not actually support each other as shunts serve multiple, concurrent physiological functions. It is argued that deposing the ‘monolithic’ view of shunting leads to a more nuanced view of vertebrate cardiovascular systems. This review concludes by suggesting new paradigms for testing the function(s) of shunts, including experimentally placing organ systems into conflict in terms of their perfusion needs, reducing sources of variation in physiological experiments, measuring possible compensatory responses to shunt ablation, moving experiments from the laboratory to the field, and using cladistics‐related approaches in the choice of experimental animals. 相似文献

The respiratory control in land vertebrates (Tetrapoda) is mainly linked to regulation of acid-base status, which involves peripheral and central chemoreceptors. The lungfish (Dipnoi) might constitute the sister group of all land vertebrates (Tetrapoda) and possess a combination of real lungs and reduced gills. In this context, we evaluated the possible presence of central respiratory chemoreceptors in the South American Lungfish, Lepidosiren paradoxa. Pulmonary ventilation and respiratory frequency increased significantly with reductions of CSF pH by means of mock CSF solutions. This suggests that Lepidosiren possess central acid-base receptors. 相似文献

We hypothesized that increasing exercise intensity recruits dormant arteriovenous intrapulmonary shunts, which may contribute to the widened alveolar-arterial oxygen difference seen with exercise. Twenty-three healthy volunteers (13 men and 10 women, aged 23-48 yr) with normal lung function and a wide range of fitness (mean maximal oxygen uptake = 126% predicted; range = 78-200% predicted) were studied by agitated saline contrast echocardiography (4-chamber apical view). All 23 subjects had normal resting contrast echocardiograms without evidence of intracardiac or intrapulmonary shunting. However, with cycle ergometer exercise, 21 of 23 (91%) of the subjects showed a delayed (>3 cardiac cycles) appearance of contrast bubbles in the left heart. This pattern is consistent with passage of contrast bubbles through the pulmonary circulation. Because the contrast bubbles are known to be significantly larger than pulmonary capillaries, we propose that they are traveling through direct arteriovenous intrapulmonary shunts. In all cases, the intrapulmonary shunting developed at submaximal oxygen uptakes [%maximal oxygen uptake = 59 +/- 20 (SD)] and once evident persisted at all subsequent work rates. Within 3 min of exercise termination, the contrast echocardiograms with bubble injection showed no evidence of intrapulmonary shunting. These dynamic shunts will contribute significantly to the widened alveolar-arterial oxygen difference seen with exercise. They may also act as a protective parallel vascular network limiting the rise in regional pulmonary vascular pressure while preserving cardiac output during exercise. 相似文献

The fastest swimming fishes in relation to size are found among coral reef fish larvae on their way to settle on reefs. By testing two damselfishes, Chromis atripectoralis and Pomacentrus amboinensis, we show that the high swimming speeds of the pre-settlement larvae are accompanied by the highest rates of oxygen uptake ever recorded in ectothermic vertebrates. As expected, these high rates of oxygen uptake occur at the cost of poor hypoxia tolerance. However, hypoxia tolerance is needed when coral reef fishes seek nocturnal shelter from predators within coral colonies, which can become severely hypoxic microhabitats at night. When the larvae settle on the reef, we found that they go through a striking respiratory transformation, i.e. the capacity for rapid oxygen uptake falls, while the ability for high-affinity oxygen uptake at low oxygen levels is increased. This transition to hypoxia tolerance is needed when they settle on the reef; this was strengthened by our finding that small resident larvae of Acanthochromis polyacanthus, a damselfish lacking a planktonic larval stage, do not display such a transition, being well adapted to hypoxia and showing relatively low maximum rates of oxygen uptake that change little with age. 相似文献

Regardless of the mode of reproduction, three things must occur at birth or hatching in amniote vertebrates: initiation of breathing, pulmonary fluid elimination and reabsorption, and adequate perfusion of pulmonary circulation. Although data on these events are few, there appears to be no fundamental difference in them that can be associated with the oviparity to viviparity transition. There are, however, differences in the timing of these events in oviparous and viviparous amniotes. The transition to neonatal respiration tends to be very quick in viviparous species because the vascular support for oxygen uptake provided by the mother is rapidly disassociated from the mechanism for uptake by the embryo. By contrast, hatching often is a slow process, taking 24 h or more in some species, as chorioallantoic blood flow slowly gives way to clearing of the lungs and pulmonary gas exchange. Little is known of the mechanisms of pulmonary fluid elimination and reabsorption or lung inflation in reptiles, but the cellular structures and surfactant systems are similar in all amniote vertebrates. Nevertheless, there are differences, particularly of timing and maturation of various systems, but there has been no exploration of the functional (or phylogenetic) bases of these differences. Perfusion of the neonatal pulmonary system to support respiration in reptiles remains to be investigated. In mammals and birds, closure of the ductus arteriosus is important, but the role played by the ductus arterioisus in reptilian hatching or birth is not known. 相似文献

The incomplete double circulation of air-breathing fishes and lungfishes, amphibians, reptiles and embryonic birds and mammals has been analyzed using a simplified mode comprising the intra- and extracardiac shunts and compartments for the gas exchange (gills, lungs, skin, etc.) as well as systemic tissue gas exchange. The intracardiac shunting is defined and given common symbols for all species of animals analyzed. Two types of equations, fluid-flow and mass-flow equations, are derived for each model, which are solved to give shunting rate as a function of blood O2 content of the principal cardiac compartments and vessels. The model analysis not only offers possibility for an overall average evaluation of central shunts, but also suggests which blood samples must be determined for evaluation of the shunt patterns. 相似文献

The pulmonary mucosa of three species of ancient fish was studied immunohistochemically to show the distribution of serotonin, regarded as the main monoamine of mammalian bronchopulmonary paraneurons. Serotonin-like immunoreactive cells, dispersed through the airway epithelium as single cells, were found in all the fish species studied. They are presumably equivalent to the neuroendocrine cells reported in the lungs of mammalian and submammalian vertebrates. However, the precise role and the function of these cells remain unknown. Since the species studied belong to the most primitive extant groups of ancient fish, the present investigation suggests that serotonin is widely distributed in the lungs of the vertebrates. Several peptides, known to be specific cytochemical markers for the identification of the pulmonary neuroendocrine cells of mammals, are being investigated in the lungs of the fish species studied. They may help to trace the phylogeny of the pulmonary neuroendocrine cell system and to elucidate its function in lower vertebrates. 相似文献

Terrestrial isopods have evolved pleopodal lungs that provide access to the rich aerial supply of oxygen. However, isopods occupy conditions with wide and unpredictable thermal and oxygen gradients, suggesting that they might have evolved adaptive developmental plasticity in their respiratory organs to help meet metabolic demand over a wide range of oxygen conditions.To explore this plasticity, we conducted an experiment in which we reared common rough woodlice (Porcellio scaber) from eggs to maturation at different temperatures (15 and 22 °C) combined with different oxygen levels (10% and 22% O2). We sampled animals during development (only females) and then examined mature adults (both sexes). We compared woodlice between treatments with respect to the area of their pleopod exopodites (our proxy of lung size) and the shape of Bertalanffy’s equations (our proxy of individual growth curves).Generally, males exhibited larger lungs than females relative to body size. Woodlice also grew relatively fast but achieved a decreased asymptotic body mass in response to warm conditions; the oxygen did not affect growth. Under hypoxia, growing females developed larger lungs compared to under normoxia, but only in the late stage of development. Among mature animals, this effect was present only in males. Woodlice reared under warm conditions had relatively small lungs, in both developing females (the effect was increased in relatively large females) and among mature males and females.Our results demonstrated that woodlice exhibit phenotypic plasticity in their lung size. We suggest that this plasticity helps woodlice equilibrate their gas exchange capacity to differences in the oxygen supply and metabolic demand along environmental temperature and oxygen gradients. The complex pattern of plasticity might indicate the effects of a balance between water conservation and oxygen uptake, which would be especially pronounced in mature females that need to generate an aqueous environment inside their brood pouch. 相似文献

Major distinctive features of avian lungs are the absence of draining lymph nodes and alveoli and alveolar macrophages (MPhs). However, a large network of MPhs and dendritic cells (DCs) is present in the mucosa of the larger airways and in the linings of the parabronchi. For the modulation of respiratory tract immune responses, for example, by vaccination, a better understanding of Ag uptake in the chicken respiratory tract is needed. In this study, we provide detailed characterization of APCs in chicken lungs, including their functional in vivo activities as measured by the uptake of fluorescently labeled 1-μm beads that are coated with either LPS or inactivated avian influenza A virus (IAV) mimicking the uptake of bacterial or viral Ag. We identified different subsets of MPhs and DCs in chicken lungs, based on the expression of CD11, activation markers, and DEC205. In vivo uptake of LPS- and IAV-beads resulted in an increased percentage MHC class II(+) (MHC II(+)) cells and in the upregulation of CD40. The uptake of LPS-beads resulted in the upregulation of CD80 and MHC II on the cell surface, suggesting either uptake of LPS- and IAV-beads by different subsets of phagocytic cells or LPS-mediated differential activation. Differences in phagosomal acidification indicated that in chicken lungs the MHC II(+) and CD80(+) bead(+) cell population includes DCs and that a large proportion of beads was taken up by MPhs. LPS-bead(+) cells were present in BALT, suggesting local induction of immune responses. Collectively, we characterized the uptake of Ags by phagocytes in the respiratory tract of chickens. 相似文献

The biological importance of the oxygen affinity of the tetrameric haemoglobin molecule and its dependency from co-factors is described. Oxygen affinity variations during development from embryonic to adult values are discussed in respect to oxygen uptake from maternal blood via placenta, in lungs and gills as well as to oxygen delivery into tissues. Comparative aspects of the molecular mechanisms leading to affinity changes are presented. 相似文献

Multiscale model for pulmonary oxygen uptake and its application to quantify hypoxemia in hepatopulmonary syndrome 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This paper presents a novel multiscale methodology for quantitative analysis of pulmonary gas exchange. The process of oxygen uptake in the lungs is a complex multiscale process, characterized by multiple time and length scales which are coupled nonlinearly through the processes of diffusion, convection and reaction, and the overall oxygen uptake is significantly influenced by the transport and reaction rate processes at the small-scales. Based on the separation of length scales, we characterize these disparate scales by three representative ones, namely micro (red blood cell), meso (capillary and alveolus) and macro (lung). We start with the fundamental convection-diffusion-reaction (CDR) equation that quantifies transport and reaction rates at each scale and apply spatial averaging techniques to reduce the dimensionality of these models. The resultant low-dimensional models embed each scale hierarchically within the other while retaining the important parameters of the small-scales in the averaged equations, and drastically reduce the computational efforts involved in solving them. We use our multiscale model for pulmonary gas exchange to quantify the oxygen uptake abnormalities in patients with hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS), a disease which is characterized by coupled abnormalities in multiple length scales. Based on our multiscale modeling, we suggest a strategy to stratify patients with HPS into two categories--those who are oxygen-responsive and those who are oxygen non-responsive with intractable hypoxemia. 相似文献

Reaction of hemoglobin oxygenation is known to occur for 40 femtoseconds (40 × 10?15 s). However, the process of oxygen diffusion to hemoglobin under physiologic conditions decelerated this reaction approximately billion times. In mammalian lungs, blood is moving at a high rate and in a relatively high amount. The human lung mass is as low as 600 g, but the complete cardiac output approaches 6 l/min. In rat, from 20 to 40 ml of blood is passed for one minute through the lung whose mass is about 1.5 g. Such blood flow rate is possible, as in lungs of high animals there exists a dense network of relatively large microvessels with diameter from 20 to 40 μm and more. In spite of a large volume and a high blood flow rate hampering oxygen diffusion, the complete blood oxygenation occurs in lung alveoli. This is due to peculiar mechanisms that facilitate markedly the oxygen diffusion and that developed in alveoli of mammals in the course of many million years of evolution of their respiratory system. Thus, alveolus is not a bubble with air, but a complex tool of fight with inertness of diffusion. It is interesting that in lungs of the low vertebrates, neither such system of blood vessels nor alveoli exist, and their blood flow rate is much lower than in mammals. 相似文献

Paradoxical arterializations of venous gas emboli can lead to neurological damage after diving with compressed air. Recently, significant exercise-induced intrapulmonary anatomical shunts have been reported in healthy humans that result in widening of alveolar-to-arterial oxygen gradient. The aim of this study was to examine whether intrapulmonary shunts can be found following strenuous exercise after diving and, if so, whether exercise should be avoided during that period. Eleven healthy, military male divers performed an open-sea dive to 30 m breathing air, remaining at pressure for 30 min. During the bottom phase of the dive, subjects performed mild exercise at approximately 30% of their maximal oxygen uptake. The ascent rate was 9 m/min. Each diver performed graded upright cycle ergometry up to 80% of the maximal oxygen uptake 40 min after the dive. Monitoring of venous gas emboli was performed in both the right and left heart with an ultrasonic scanner every 20 min for 60 min after reaching the surface pressure during supine rest and following two coughs. The diving profile used in this study produced significant amounts of venous bubbles. No evidence of intrapulmonary shunting was found in any subject during either supine resting posture or any exercise grade. Also, short strenuous exercise after the dive did not result in delayed-onset decompression sickness in any subject, but studies with a greater number of participants are needed to confirm whether divers should be allowed to exercise after diving. 相似文献

Oxygen transport behavior in erythrocyte suspension or in hemoglobin solution was studied as a potential therapeutic model for the clinical treatment of blood loss, and this can also provide physiological data with which to evaluate blood substitutes. In the present project, we examined the in vitro kinetics of hemoglobin binding to and releasing oxygen, to provide detailed oxygen-flux measurements for unmodified hemoglobin solutions and erythrocyte suspensions in human, as well as other vertebrates. An in vitro method was used, based on a widely used artificial system, with the oxygen saturation level being detected in real time. Results from this study indicated that the kinetic curves of human erythrocyte suspensions and hemoglobin solutions were either S-shaped or hyperbolic, respectively. Based on these curves, the significance of T(50) emerged in our investigation, where T(50) is defined as the time needed for 50% hemoglobin to be saturated with oxygen, and reflects the efficiency with which hemoglobin carries oxygen. This parameter may be used to diagnose blood diseases, and could be a standard for evaluating blood substitutes. In this study, we also compared the T(50) of 4 species of vertebrates, and found that it shows a distinct efficiency of oxygen binding related to species, and potentially reveals the evolutionary function of hemoglobin and its possible adaptation to the environment. 相似文献

The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae predominantly ferments glucose to ethanol at high external glucose concentrations, irrespective of the presence of oxygen. In contrast, at low external glucose concentrations and in the presence of oxygen, as in a glucose-limited chemostat, no ethanol is produced. The importance of the external glucose concentration suggests a central role for the affinity and maximal transport rates of yeast's glucose transporters in the control of ethanol production. Here we present a series of strains producing functional chimeras between the hexose transporters Hxt1 and Hxt7, each of which has distinct glucose transport characteristics. The strains display a range of decreasing glycolytic rates resulting in a proportional decrease in ethanol production. Using these strains, we show for the first time that at high glucose levels, the glucose uptake capacity of wild-type S. cerevisiae does not control glycolytic flux during exponential batch growth. In contrast, our chimeric Hxt transporters control the rate of glycolysis to a high degree. Strains whose glucose uptake is mediated by these chimeric transporters will undoubtedly provide a powerful tool with which to examine in detail the mechanism underlying the switch between fermentation and respiration in S. cerevisiae and will provide new tools for the control of industrial fermentations. 相似文献
