The objectives of this study were to investigate the effects of dietary high molybdenum (Mo) on immune function by determining changes of the subsets of peripheral blood T-cells and serum interleukin (IL)-2 contents. 300 1-day-old avian broilers were divided into four groups and fed on a corn–soybean basal diet as control diet or the same diet amended to contain 500; 1,000; and 1,500 mg/kg of Mo supplied as sodium molybdate dihydrate. In comparison with those of the control group, the percentages of CD3+, CD3+CD4+ and CD3+CD8+ were decreased in 1,000 and 1,500 mg/kg of Mo intake groups from 14 days of age to 42 days of age. Also, the serum IL-2 contents were decreased in 1,000 and 1,500 mg/kg of Mo intake groups from 14 days of age to 42 days of age. Histopathologically, hypocellularity appeared in the thymus in 1,000 and 1,500 mg/kg of Mo intake groups. It was concluded that dietary high-Mo (1,000 mg/kg and 1,500 mg/kg) reduced the percentages of peripheral blood T-cell subsets and serum IL-2 contents and caused thymic lesions. The cellular immune function was finally injured in broilers.  相似文献

Cytokines are immunoregulatory proteins which play an important role in the immune system. The purpose of this study was to examine the serum cytokine contents including interleukin-2 (IL-2), interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10), interferon gamma (IFN-γ), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) induced by dietary nickel chloride in broilers by enzyme-linked immunospecific assay. A total of 240 one-day-old avian broilers were divided into four groups and fed on a corn–soybean basal diet as control diet or the same basal diet supplemented with 300, 600, and 900 mg/kg of nickel chloride. During the experimental period of 42 days, the results showed that the serum IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IFN-γ and TNF-α contents were lower (p?<?0.05 or p?<?0.01) in the 300, 600, 900 mg/kg groups than those in the control group. It was concluded that dietary nickel chloride in the range of 300 to 900 mg/kg could reduce the serum cytokine contents, which could finally impact the immune function in broilers.  相似文献

The contents of glycogen, lipid, urea and amino acids, and some enzyme activities in plasma, liver muscle and urine were determined with rats fed 10 to 12 g of 100 g body weight per day of the 10% casein diet (control) and 10% casein diets containing 7% glycine with or without 1.4% l-arginine HC1 and l-methionine for 7 days.

Nine hours after the final feeding, the amount of liver glycogen was high in the order of rats fed 10% casein diet containing 7% glycine, 10% casein diet containing 7% glycine with l-arginine and l-methionine, and the control. The amount of muscle glycogen was decreased only in those fed the control diet. The amount of liver lipid was increased by the addition of l-arginine and l-methionine to the excess glycine diet. Plasma and urinary urea was increased in animals given the excess glycine diets with or without both amino acids. In plasma liver, and muscle of animals given either of both the excess glycine diets 3 and 9 hr after the feeding, in general, glycine and serine were increased, and threonine and alanine were decreased as compared with those of rats given the control diet. However, the increase of glycine in plasma, liver and muscle detected at 9 hr after feeding the excess glycine diet was slightly prevented by the supplementation of both amino acids to the excess glycine diet. The activities of liver glycine oxidase and ornithine δ-aminotransferase of rats given the excess glycine diet with both amino acids were higher than those of other dietary groups. Liver serine dehydratase and glutamate-oxalacetate transaminase activities were high in the order of the animals fed the control, the excess glycine diet and the excess glycine diet containing both amino acids. Glutamate-pyruvate transaminase activity in the liver of rats fed the excess glycine diets with or without both amino acids were markedly higher than that of those fed the control. The activities of phosphopyruvate carboxylase and aconitase in the liver of animals given the excess glycine diet were higher than those of other dietary groups. Liver pyruvate kinase and glutamate dehydrogenase activities were similar among those dietary groups.  相似文献

The experiment was conducted with the objective of examining the effects of high molybdenum (Mo) on the apoptosis of splenic lymphocytes in broilers by the methods of experimental pathology and flow cytometry (FCM). Three hundred 1-day-old avian broilers were divided into four groups of 75 each and were fed on control diet (Mo 13 mg/kg) and high Mo diets (Mo 500 mg/kg, high Mo group I; Mo 1,000 mg/kg, high Mo group II; and Mo 1,500 mg/kg, high Mo group III) for 42 days. The results showed that the relative weight of spleen was decreased, and lymphocytes were histopathologically decreased in high Mo groups II and III. Ultrastructurally, the apoptotic cells showed typical condensed nuclei with dark-round, petal-like, and horseshoe-like shapes. The mitochondria were swelled, and the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus were dilated in high Mo groups II and III. The statistical analyses by FCM indicated that the percentage of cellular apoptosis was higher in high Mo groups II and III than in control group. Also, the TUNEL staining was consistent with the results of FCM. It was concluded that dietary molybdenum in 1,000 and 1,500 mg/kg caused splenic lesions and lymphocyte apoptosis, which could inhibit the development of spleen and could impair immune function in broilers.  相似文献

The purpose of this 42-day study was to investigate the effects of excess dietary selenium on immune function by determining morphological changes of spleen and cell cycle of splenocyte. Three hundred 1-day-old avian broilers were fed on a basic diet (0.2 mg/kg selenium) or the same diet amended to contain 1, 5, 10, and 15 mg/kg selenium (Se) supplied as sodium selenite (n = 60/group). Anatomically, the spleens were shrinked in volume with pallecent color. Histopathologically, lymphopenia in splenic nodules and periarterial lymphatic sheaths and congestion of the red pulp were observed in 5, 10, and 15 mg/kg Se group. By flow cytometry method, the percentage of G0/G1 phase splenocytes was significantly increased, whereas the percentages of S phase and G2+M phase splenocytes and the proliferation index were markedly decreased in 5, 10, and 15 mg/kg Se groups when compared with those of 0.2 mg/kg group. The results confirmed that excess dietary Se as sodium selenite in the range of 5∼15 mg/kg caused growth retardation of spleen by cell cycle blockage in young chickens.  相似文献

The purpose of this 42-day study was to investigate the effects of dietary excess vanadium on intestinal immune function by histopathological observation of cecal tonsil and changes of the cecal tonsil T cell subsets by method of flow cytometry. Four hundred twenty 1-day-old avian broilers were divided into six groups and fed on a corn-soybean basal diet as control diet or the same diet amended to contain 5, 15, 30, 45, and 60 mg/kg vanadium supplied as ammonium metavanadate. In comparison with those of control group, lymphocytes in the lymphatic nodule of cecal tonsil were apparently decreased in 45 and 60 mg/kg groups. The percentage of CD(3)(+) T cells was decreased (p?相似文献

Formaldehyde (FA) is a well-known irritant, and it is suggested to increase the risk of immune diseases and cancer. The present study aimed to evaluate the distribution of major lymphocyte subsets and cytokine expression profiles in the peripheral blood of FA-exposed workers. A total of 118 FA-exposed workers and 79 controls were enrolled in the study. High performance liquid chromatography, flow cytometry, and cytometric bead array were used to analyze FA in air sample and formic acid in urine, blood lymphocyte subpopulations, and serum cytokines, respectively. The FA-exposed workers were divided into low and high exposure groups according to their exposure levels. The results showed that both the low and high FA-exposed groups had a significant increase of formic acid in urine when compared to the controls. Both the low and high exposure groups had a significant increase in the percentage of B cells (CD19+) compared to the control group (p<0.01). A significant increase in the percentage of the natural killer (NK) cells (CD56+) was observed in the low exposure group compared to the control (p = 0.013). Moreover, the FA-exposed workers in both exposure groups showed a significant higher level of IL-10 but lower level of IL-8 than the control (p<0.01). Subjects in the high exposure group had a higher level of IL-4 but a lower level of IFN-γ than the control (p<0.05). Finally, there is a significant correlation between the levels of IL-10, IL-4, and IL-8 and formic acid (p<0.05). The findings from the present study may explain, at least in part, the association between FA exposure and immune diseases and cancer.  相似文献

Zinc deficiency induces a striking reduction of food intake in animals. To elucidate the mechanisms for this effect, two studies were connectedly conducted to determine the effects of peripheral administration of zinc on food intake in rats fed the zinc-adequate or zinc-deficient diets for a 3-week period. In study 1, two groups of male Sprague-Dawley rats were provided diets made either adequate (ZA; 38.89 mg/kg) or deficient (ZD; 3.30 mg/kg) in zinc. In study 2, after feeding for 3 weeks, both ZA and ZD groups received intraperitoneal (IP) injection of zinc solution with three levels (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 mug zinc/g body weight, respectively) and cumulative food intake at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 24 h, and plasma hormones concentrations were measured. The results in study 1 showed rats fed the ZD diets revealed symptoms of zinc deficiency, such as sparse and coarse hair, poor appetite, susceptibility to surroundings, lethargy, and small movements. Zinc concentrations in serum, femur, and skeletal muscle of rats fed the ZD diets declined by 26.58% (P < 0.01), 27.32% (P < 0.01), and 24.22% (P < 0.05), respectively, as compared with ZA control group. These findings demonstrated that rat models with zinc deficiency and zinc adequacy had been fully established. The results in study 2 showed that IP administration of zinc in both ZA and ZD rats did not influence food intake at each time points (P > 0.05), although zinc deficiency suppressed food intake. Plasma neuropeptide Y (NPY) was higher, but insulin and glucagon were lower in response to zinc deficiency or zinc administration by contrast with their respective controls (P < 0.05). Leptin, T3, and T4 concentrations were uniformly decreased (P < 0.05) in rats fed the ZD diets in contrast to ZA diets; however, no differences (P > 0.05) were observed during zinc injection. Calcitonin gene-related peptide was unaffected (P > 0.05) by either zinc deficiency or zinc administration. The present studies suggested that zinc administration did not affect short-term food intake in rats even in the zinc-deficient ones; the reduced food intake induced by zinc deficiency was fprobably associated with the depression in thyroid hormones. The results also indicated that NPY and insulin varied conversely during the control of food intake.  相似文献

The purpose of this 42-day study was to investigate the effects of low selenium (Se) on cellular immune function by determining cell cycle of thymus, serum IL-2 content, and mitogenesis of peripheral blood T-lymphocytes. One hundred twenty 1-day-old Avian broilers were randomly assigned to two groups of 60 each and were fed on a low-Se diet (0.0342?mg/kg Se) or a control diet (0.2?mg/kg Se), respectively. Cell cycle analysis by flow cytometry showed that low-Se diet caused an increase in G(0)G(1) phase cells that corresponded to a decrease in S-phase cells in thymus. Ultrastructurally, mitochondria injury and increased apoptotic cells with condensed nuclei were observed. Low-Se diet decreased the serum IL-2 contents and mitogenesis of peripheral blood lymphocytes to concanavalin A in comparison with those of control group. These data indicate that low-Se diet inhibits the development of thymus by arresting the cell cycle and decreasing the IL-2 content.  相似文献

This study evaluated the effects of diets with fiber (cellulose and/or pectin) supplemented with chromium(III) on homeostasis of selected minerals in femurs, thigh muscles, livers, and kidneys of rats. For 6 weeks, male rats were fed experimental diets: a fiber-free diet (FF), a diet containing 5 % cellulose (CEL), 5 % pectin (PEC), or 2.5 % cellulose and 2.5 % pectin (CEL?+?PEC). These diets had 2.53 or 0.164 mg Cr/kg diet. The tissue levels of Ca, Mg, Zn, Fe, and Cr were determined by using atomic absorption spectrometry. Supplementing diets with Cr resulted in significantly higher Cr levels in the femurs of rats fed the CEL diet and significantly higher Cr and Fe levels in the rats fed the CEL?+?PEC diet compared to the rats fed FF diet. Muscle Ca content was significantly lower in the rats fed the CEL?+?PEC?+?Cr diet compared to the rats fed FF?+?Cr diet. The rats consuming the PEC?+?Cr diet had the highest liver Cr content. The highest kidney Zn content was observed in the rats fed diets containing Cr and one type of fiber. These results indicate that diets containing chromium at elevated dose and fiber have a significant effect on the mineral balance in rat tissues.  相似文献

Although many investigations have been devoted to carbohydrate exchange in schizophrenics, the changes characteristic of this illness have not yet been discovered. Experimental investigations have been more successful. It has been established that changes at various points of carbohydrate exchange occur in living single-celled organisms or isolated mammalian cells under the influence of the blood serum of schizophrenics. For example, it has been demonstrated that the blood serum of schizophrenics inhibits breathing in yeasts and glucose absorption in experiments on the diaphragm and retina in rats in vitro (1-4).  相似文献

Human natural killer (NK) cells are considered professional cytotoxic cells that are integrated into the effector branch of innate immunity during antiviral and antitumoral responses. The purpose of this study was to examine the peripheral distribution and expression of NK cell activation receptors from the fresh peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 30 breast cancer patients prior to any form of treatment (including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy), 10 benign breast pathology patients, and 24 control individuals. CD3CD56dimCD16bright NK cells (CD56dim NK) and CD3CD56brightCD16dim/− NK cells (CD56bright NK) were identified using flow cytometry. The circulating counts of CD56dim and CD56bright NK cells were not significantly different between the groups evaluated, nor were the counts of other leukocyte subsets between the breast cancer patients and benign breast pathology patients. However, in CD56dim NK cells, NKp44 expression was higher in breast cancer patients (P = .0302), whereas NKp30 (P = .0005), NKp46 (P = .0298), and NKG2D (P = .0005) expression was lower with respect to healthy donors. In CD56bright NK cells, NKp30 (P = .0007), NKp46 (P = .0012), and NKG2D (P = .0069) expression was lower in breast cancer patients compared with control group. Only NKG2D in CD56bright NK cells (P = .0208) and CD56dim NK cells (P = .0439) showed difference between benign breast pathology and breast cancer patients. Collectively, the current study showed phenotypic alterations in activation receptors on CD56dim and CD56bright NK cells, suggesting that breast cancer patients have decreased NK cell cytotoxicity.  相似文献

Sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) is a class III histone deacetylase (HDAC) that modulates gene expression and is involved in the regulation of proinflammatory cytokines. Interleukin-23 (IL-23) is produced by activated macrophages and dendritic cells and could fuel the progression of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The goal of our study was to evaluate serum IL-23 levels and both Sirt1 activity and expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in patients with RA compared to healthy controls (HC) and to determine the relationship between Sirt1 activity/expression and IL-23 levels. We assessed apoptosis in PBMCs of RA patients and its association with Sirt1 expression and serum IL-23. Serum IL-23 levels were increased in RA patients in comparison with controls. We found a positive correlation between the levels of serum IL-23 and serum IL-6 in RA patients. Decreased cytoplasmic Sirt1 activity was observed in RA patients with severe disease compared to HC. The expression of Sirt1 protein was significantly decreased in PBMCs of RA patients compared to HC using western blotting. Serum IL-23 levels correlated positively with the cytoplasmic Sirt1 activity in RA patients. Apoptosis rate of PBMCs isolated from RA patients was increased compared to HC and correlated negatively with the expression of Sirt1 protein and serum IL-23 levels. Levels of serum IL-23 and Sirt1 activity and expression were disturbed in RA parallel to increased PBMC apoptosis. Our findings might provide the rationale for the development of new therapeutic approaches in RA.  相似文献

Pigs and chickens were fed diets containing increased concentrations of the single cell protein (SCP), Pruteen, in order to investigate the effects of a diet containing high levels of nucleic acids on the activity of DNase in intestinal contents. Increased levels of SCP in the diet generally resulted in increased DNase activity in intestinal contents. Significant differences at P≦0.05, were found between the control groups and most of the experimental groups in both species. With the exception of the 2 groups given the highest levels of SCP in the chicken experiment, the DNases in the large intestines were not inhibited by antisera produced against DNase in pancreatic juice.  相似文献
