When individuals of Drosophila subobscura at 0 hr prepupa are submitted to anoxia (4 hr and 24 hr, respectively), their puffing pattern is very similar to that shown by individuals at the moment of development in which treatment began. The same expression of genes (the same puffing pattern and the same protein pattern) is induced in this species by recovery from anoxia as well as by heat shock treatment at 31 degrees C. 相似文献

For the purpose of developing highly sensitive and convenient determination of plasmalogens, the high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method using radioactive iodine ((125)I) was investigated. Radioactive triiodide (1-) ion ((125)I(3)(-)), which is an actual iodine form capable of reacting with vinyl ether bond ([bond]CH(2)[bond]O[bond]CH[double bond]CH[bond]) of plasmalogens, could be safely and efficiently produced by oxidizing a commercial radioactive sodium iodine (Na(125)I) with hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) under acid condition (pH 5.5-6.0), which is called iodine-125 reagent. I(3)(-) specifically reacted with plasmalogens at the molar ratio of 1:1 in methanol, and 1 or 2 mol of plasmalogens was involved in the binding with iodine per iodine atom, resulting in the formation of stable iodine-binding phospholipids. The HPLC system with Diol column and acetonitrile/water as a mobile phase was available for separating iodine-binding phospholipids from nonbinding free iodine and for separately eluting iodine-binding phospholipids derived from choline and ethanolamine plasmalogens. Using iodine-125 reagent (1.85 MBq/ml), plasmalogens were detectable at high sensitivity of 10,000-15,000 cpm/nmol, which is more than 1000-fold higher sensitivity than the classical determination with nonradioactive iodine. Plasmalogen concentrations in human plasma were measured with the HPLC system and determined as, on average, 129.1+/-31.3 microM (n=8) in a 1.2 content ratio of choline to ethanolamine plasmalogens, a concentration that nearly agrees with the value reported previously. 相似文献

Differential effects of perinatal hypoxia and anoxia on long term seizure susceptibility in the rat. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
We have previously demonstrated that hypoxia is acutely epileptogenic in the immature rat but not in the adult. The window during which hypoxia induces seizures in the rat ranges from postnatal day (P) 5-17, with the most severe seizures occurring at P10-12. Perinatal hypoxia resulted in significantly more acute seizure activity than perinatal anoxia. The present study evaluates the long term effects of perinatal hypoxia versus anoxia. Animals were exposed to hypoxia (3%O2) or anoxia (0%O2) at P10 and challenged later in adulthood (P55-60) with administration of pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) (45 mg/kg subcutaneously). Compared to normal littermate controls, the animals which had been exposed to perinatal hypoxia had a significantly higher frequency of generalized convulsions (GC) and a significantly shorter latency to the first myoclonic jerk (MJ) after PTZ. In contrast, perinatal anoxia did not alter long term seizure susceptibility. These results are discussed in context of previous studies which have shown variable long term effects using different models of perinatal hypoxia and/or ischemia. 相似文献

Rat hearts perfused for up to 60 min in the working mode with palmitate, but not with glucose, resulted in substantial formation of palmitoylcarnitine and stearoylcarnitine. To test whether lipolysis of endogenous lipids was responsible for the increased stearoylcarnitine content or whether some of the perfused palmitate underwent chain elongation, hearts were perfused with hexadecanoic-16,16,16-d(3) acid (M+3). The pentafluorophenacyl ester of deuterium labeled stearoylcarnitine had an M+3 (639.4 m/z) compared to the unlabeled M+0 (636.3 m/z) consistent with a direct chain elongation of the perfused palmitate. Furthermore, the near equal isotope enrichment of palmitoyl- (90.2+/-5.8%) and stearoylcarnitine (78.0+/-7.1%) suggest that both palmitoyl- and stearoyl-CoA have ready access to mitochondrial carnitine palmitoyltransferase and that most of the stearoylcarnitine is derived from the perfused palmitate. 相似文献

1. The kinetics of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis in rat liver were followed 5-60 min after the intraportal injection of [14-C]choline and [3-H]-ethanolamine. 2. At all time-intervals the specific radioactivity of CDP-choline was only about half that of phosphorylcholine. This indicated that CDP-choline was formed at a similar rate from phosphorylcholine and phosphatidylcholines, the latter probably through the reverse reaction of cholinephosphotransferase (EC 2.7.8.2.). In view of recent data obtained from experiments in vitro this implies a significant role for the cholinephosphotransferase reaction in the turnover of molecular species of phosphatidylcholine. 3. The specific radioactivity of CDP-ethanolamine was about twice that of phosphorylethanolamine at all time-intervals studied. This supports a previous suggestion that the liver phosphorylethanolamine pool is subject to compartmentation and shows that there is no rapid equilibration between different pools. In contrast with a recent study, no evidence was found for any significant methylation of phosphoryl-or CDP-ethanolamine to the corresponding choline derivative. 4. Quantitative data on the biosynthesis of molecular species of phosphoLIPIDS via CDP derivatives were calculated according to simple kinetic models. They were in the same range as those calculated from earlier data on precusors incorporated via diacylglycerols. 5. The proportion of radioactive phosphatidylethanolamines appearing in the plasma was approximately ten times lower than that for phosphatidylcholines. No selectivity was observed in the transfer into plasma of different molecular species of phosphatidylethanolamine. 相似文献

Previous reports suggest that hypoxia downregulates cardiac beta-adrenergic receptors from young rats. Because aging alters response to stress, we hypothesized an age-related alteration in the response to hypoxia. Male Fischer-344 rats, aged 3 and 20 mo, were divided into control and hypoxic groups. The hypoxic rats were exposed to hypobaric hypoxia (0.5 atm) for 3 wk. After hypoxic exposure, body weight decreased, hematocrit increased, right ventricular weight increased, and left ventricular weight decreased in all animals. beta-Adrenergic receptor density declined after hypoxic exposure in the young but not in the older animals, a change that was confined to the left ventricle. beta-Adrenergic receptor density in the right ventricle was significantly lower in the older animals than in the young animals. Plasma catecholamines (norepinephrine, epinephrine) drawn after the animals were killed (stress levels) decreased in young rats and increased in old rats after the exposure to hypoxia. Hypoxia is a useful physiological stress that elucidates age-related changes in cardiac beta-adrenergic receptor and catecholamine regulation that have not previously been described. 相似文献

Coronary heart disease is frequently associated with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and treating obstructive sleep apnea appears to significantly improve the outcome in coronary heart disease. Thus we have developed a rat model of chronic intermittent hypoxia (IH) to study the influence of this condition on myocardial ischemia-reperfusion tolerance and on functional vascular reactivity. Wistar male rats were divided in three experimental groups (n = 12 each) subjected to chronic IH (IH group), normoxia (N group), or control conditions (control group). IH consisted of repetitive cycles of 1 min (40 s with inspired O(2) fraction 5% followed by 20 s normoxia) and was applied for 8 h during daytime, for 35 days. Normoxic cycles were applied in the same conditions, inspired O(2) fraction remaining constant at 21%. On day 36, mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) was measured before isolated hearts were submitted to an ischemia-reperfusion protocol. The thoracic aorta and left carotid artery were also excised for functional reactivity studies. MABP was not significantly different between the three experimental groups. Infarct sizes (in percent of ventricles) were significantly higher in IH group (46.9 +/- 3.6%) compared with N (26.1 +/- 2.8%) and control (21.7 +/- 2.1%) groups. Vascular smooth muscle function was similar in aorta and carotid arteries from all groups. The endothelium-dependent relaxation in response to acetylcholine was also similar in aorta and carotid arteries from all groups. Chronic IH increased heart sensitivity to infarction, independently of a significant increase in MABP, and did not affect vascular reactivity of aorta and carotid arteries. 相似文献

The explanation for the increased frequency of troubles with digoxin therapy in patients with chronic pulmonary diseases is debated. The reported effects of hypoxia in vivo on myocardial levels of digoxin are contradictory, and there have been few studies on the effects of hypercapnia. In the past, it has been shown in rat myocardial tissue at rest in vitro that hypoxia decreased and hypercapnic acidosis increased the digoxin uptake. We performed a new study in vitro in an isolated beating rat heart perfused at constant flow (37 degrees C) and stimulated at a constant frequency (6 Hz). The performances were recorded with an intraventricular balloon equipped with a tip-manometer catheter. The action of digoxin was studied by recording systolic pressure (PS) and diastolic pressure (PD), the left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP = PS - PD), the (dP/dt)max, and the ratio (dP/dt)max/PS. First, the heart was perfused for 30 min with a modified Tyrode's solution perfusate aerated with carbogen (pH = 7.40; PCO2 = 37 mmHg; PO2 = 530 mmHg) (1 mmHg = 133.32 Pa). Various parameters of contractions were recorded (initial control values). Then the heart was perfused for 15 min with Tyrode's solution aerated either with a hypoxic gas mixture (pH = 7.41; PCO2 = 36 mmHg; PO2 = 122 mmHg), a hypercapnic gas mixture (pH = 7.08; PCO2 75 mmHg; PO2 = 485 mmHg), or a hypoxic-hypercapnic gas mixture (pH = 7.09; PCO2 = 73 mmHg; PO2 = 124 mmHg). Control hearts were continuously perfused with Tyrode's solution aerated with carbogen.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献
