1. 1.|Progresterone concentrations in peripheral plasma, corpus luteum, uterus and placenta were determined by radioimmunoassay, in pregnant heat-acclimated (HA) and control (C) rats.
2. 2.|Concentration of progesterone in plasma and uterus of HA rats were lower than C from day 5 to 18 and day 5 to mid-gestation respectively.
3. 3.|Number and weight of pups born to HA rats were lower than C by 11.1% and 12.3% respectively.
4. 4.|It is concluded that aberration in pregnancy development observed in HA rats is associated with lower progesterone concentration in plasma and uterus from day of implantation to mid-pregnancy.

The effects of mildronate [3(2,2,2-trimethylhydrazinium) propionate dihydrate], γ-butyrobetaine (GBB) and their combination (neomildronate) on the level of thyroid hormones and some intermediates of basal metabolism (free fatty acids, triglycerides, glucose) in serum of laboratory rats with various dysfunctions of thyroid glands including idiopathic hyperfunction and also hypofunction induced by administration of 6-propyl-2-thiouracil (PTU) or L-carnitine administration. Intraperitoneal injections of mildronate (150 mg/kg) during 20 days to male Wistar rats with elevated level of thyroid hormones and basal metabolism normalized thyroxin level and parameters of lipid metabolism in serum. Administration of the compounds studied to rats with hypothyroidism induced by administration of PTU or L-carnitine did not influence natural recovery of the hormonal level. Possible biochemical role of these pharmacological treatments is discussed in terms of in regulation of thyroid gland function. 相似文献

(1) Changes in the activity of hepatic glycogen phosphorylase a+b and a (GPh-ase a+b and a), liver glycogen content and blood glucose level during acclimation to moderate high environmental temperature (35±1 °C) were studied. (2) Experiments were carried out on adult fed Wistar rats of both sexes, previously given either short-term (1, 4 and 7 days) or long-term (14, 21, 30 and 60 days) exposure to high environmental temperature. The controls were continuously kept at room temperature (20±2 °C). (3) The results obtained showed that in the period of short-term exposure the liver glycogen content was decreased significantly (after the first and fourth days in male rats and after first day in female rats) and the GPh-ase a activity increased (after first day in male rats and after first, fourth and seventh day in female rats). Long-term exposure caused significant increased liver glycogen content (beginning from the 14th day in male rats and the 21st day in female rats) until the end of the acclimation period (60 days). The elevated activity of GPh-ase a persists after 14th day of exposure only in female rats while there are no significant changes over the rest of the acclimation period in both sexes. There were no significant changes in total GPh-ase activity during the whole period of exposure. Blood glucose level was significantly decreased throughout the whole period of acclimation to high environmental temperature, in both sexes (except in the 1 day exposed groups). (4) The increased activity of hepatic GPh-ase a and decreased glycogen content suggested that the short-term exposure to heat stimulates the glycogenolytical processes. Decreased blood glucose level, and elevated liver glycogen content (r=-0.7467 in male and r=-0.6548 in female rats) suggested that prolonged exposure to high environmental temperature stimulated glycogenogenesis, without changes in the GPh-ase activity. 相似文献

A conventional balance study with 48 male weanling rats was conducted to determine true absorption and endogenous fecal excretion
of manganese (Mn) in relation to dietary Mn supply, following the procedures of a previously adapted isotope dilution technique.
After 10 d on a diet with 1.5 ppm Mn, eight animals each were assigned to diets containing 1.5, 4.5, 11.2, 35, 65, or 100
ppm Mn on a dry-matter basis. Three days later, each rat was given an intramuscular54Mn injection and kept on treatment for a balance period of 16 d.
Apparent Mn absorption assessed for the final 8 d, averaged 8.6 μg/d without significant treatment effects, although Mn intake
ranged from 18.6 to 1200 μg/d, in direct relation to dietary Mn concentrations. Mean fecal excretion of endogenous Mn for
the six treatments was 0.9, 2.7, 7.4, 11.0, 16.3, and 17.7 μg/d, respectively. These values delineate the rates to which true
absorption exceeded apparent rates. True absorption, as percent of Mn intake, averaged 28.7, 15.9, 11.7, 6.1, 3.4, and 2.0,
respectively, as compared with mean values of 23.9, 10.9, 6.2, 3.4, 1.2, and 0.5 for percent apparent absorption. It was concluded
that both true absorption and endogenous fecal excretion markedly responded to Mn nutrition and that the reduction in the
efficiency of true absorption was quantitatively the most significant homeostatic response for maintaining stable Mn concentrations
in body tissues. 相似文献
