We have studied kidney samples of 16 garden dormouses (Eliomys quercinus L.) divided into two groups, 8 hibernating and 8 non-hibernating. Hibernation produces structural modifications in the glomerular ultrafilter: (1) the endothelial pores decrease in number and size; (2) the podocytic food processes increase in number and the slit pores decrease in size; (3) in the basement membrane there are no structural morphological modifications. In short, we could say that the permeability of the glomerular ultrafilter decreases during hibernation. This fact helps to understand the decrease in the rate of urine formation that takes place in the presence of a low body temperature and a metabolic depression. 相似文献

Liver and brown fat mitochondrial response to cold in the garden dormouse (Eliomys quercinus) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The involvement of two organs, i.e. the liver and the brown adipose tissue (BAT) in response to cold in a hibernating species such as the garden dormouse has been studied. 2. In animals living in the cold, mitochondrial respiratory rates significantly increased (with respect to those living at 28 degrees C) in both organs with a larger increase in the BAT (+152% in the BAT and 67% in the liver). 3. The increase in BAT activity was obtained by a concomitant increase in: (a) the BAT mass (+30%), (b) the total mitochondrial mass (+20%), and (c) the mitochondrial respiratory rate (+64%). In the liver the increase was due only to an augmentation in mitochondrial mass and activity. 4. These results indicate that: (a) the BAT exerts a pre-eminent role in the physiological response to cold of garden dormouse, (b) a certain non-shivering thermogenesis (NST) is present in the liver of such species. In addition we suggest that a local thermoregulatory response would take place in a metabolically important organ such as the liver. 相似文献

1. The thermogenic activity of brown adipose tissue in hibernating garden dormice during hypothermic torpor and at different states of arousal were studied. High levels of GDP binding were observed on isolated brown fat mitochondria, indicating that the thermogenic proton conductance pathway is very active in brown fat during arousal. 2. In order to investigate this phenomenon, the uncoupling protein was assessed by immunological assay and the mRNA for UCP was analysed. 3. Animals during arousal exhibited neither increase in UCPmRNA nor an increase in UCP. 4. Our results suggest that during the rewarming of garden dormice there is an acute unmasking of GDP binding sites on the protein. 相似文献

Heart rate in hibernating garden dormice, Eliomys quercinus, was studied by means of permanently implanted electrodes; ambient temperatures (TA's) were maintained at 0, 4, 6.5, and 9 degrees C during the 6-month test period in each winter study. The animals were kept under constant conditions in darkness and without food or water. Heart rate remained at a low level during deep hibernation at all TA's studied. There were no differences in midwinter values between the TA's of 6.5 and 9 degrees C: the means were 9-12 beats/min during apnea. Heart rate thus differs from other hibernation parameters studied simultaneously, which were strongly TA dependent. However, the optimal TA of 4 degrees C could be distinguished and heart rate was significantly lower, 8-10 beats/min. At 0 degree C the values were slightly higher: 12-13 beats/min. The TA of 0 degree C was exceptional for all parameters studied. At the beginning of the hibernation season was a transition period with elevated heart rate values. Respiratory-related heart-rate changes appeared during periodic respiration, heart rate being significantly higher during respiratory periods at all TA's. At 0, 6.5, and 9 degrees C tachycardia occurred also during apnea, very close to the respiratory period. There are responses that are comparable to hypoxic environmental conditions during hibernation, diving, and pregnancy and under high-altitude conditions. Parallel adaptations appear in heart rate and respiration, i.e., bradycardia and periodic respiration. In conclusion, heart-rate values were low during deep hibernation, and compared with other parameters measured at different TA's heart rate is maintained inside narrow limits during deep hibernation. 相似文献

More than 3500 fleas, collected in southern Belgium, from 54 garden dormice (Eliomys quercinus) and from 58 nests of the rodent, were examined. Ceratophyllus s. sciurorum seems to be the only regular and abundant flea on the garden dormouse and in its nest whereas Myoxopsylla laverani is quite uncommon (5/31 infested animal and 11/52 infested nests). In comparison, 96 garden dormice were checked in France. M. laverani is present on nearly every infested animal (61/66). Other fleas were also found, some mammal-fleas (Megabothris turbidus, Hystrichopsylla talpae, several Ctenophthalmus spp.) and great numbers of bird-fleas (Ceratophyllus gallinae and Dasypsyllus gallinulae) because the dormouse-nests where the fleas were taken were built on old tit-nests (Parus spp). Finally, Schizophthirus pleurophaeus, a louse, was collected for the first time in Belgium. 相似文献

In garden dormouse protein deficiency leads to reversible hypothermic torpor, comparable with that provoked by starvation or occuring naturally during hibernation, whether the diet consists wholly of apples or of synthetic protein-free food. Torpor induced by protein deficiency occurs even though the energy requirements of the animal are amply satisfied. These phases of lethargy occur after a certain delay and with a variable frequency, both of which vary with the ambient temperature. 相似文献

Summary Posterior and intermediate lobes of pituitary glands of cat, rabbit, beef, and rat were examined histochemically for specific (AChE) and non-specific (BuChE) cholinesterase by light and electron microscopy. Acetylthiocholine was utilized in conjunction with ethopropazine to demonstrate AChE, and butyrylthiocholine with BW 284C51 to demonstrate BuChE. Glandular cells of the intermediate lobe of cat, rabbit and rat contained variable amounts of AChE, whereas those of beef contained BuChE. In the posterior pituitary, AChE was detected in the cat, BuChE in the beef and rat, and both AChE and BuChE in the rabbit. In the posterior lobe of all species examined, cholinesterase, whether true or pseudo enzyme, as the case may be, was localized to certain pituicytes and pituicyte-neuron junctions. These histochemical studies failed to identify cholinergic neurons in the posterior pituitary. Large blood vessels of the pituitary were innervated apparently by adrenergic nerves only. Speculations on the role of pituicyte cholinesterase in posterior pituitary secretion are presented.Supported by the Medical Research Council of Canada.Medical Research Associate of the MRC of Canada. 相似文献
