贵州小型香猪和广西巴马小型猪微卫星位点的遗传学分析

利用35个微卫星位点对贵州小型香猪,广西巴马小型猪的封闭群进行了遗传检测,计算出两个小型猪品系个体样本微卫星位点的平均杂合度,多态信息含量（PIC）、有效等效基因数及品系间的遗传距离。结果表明两个品系的小型猪平均杂合度和PIC均较低,有效等效基因数与实测等位基因数较接近,也表明两品系均有稳定的遗传;两者的遗传距离表明贵州小型香猪和广西巴马小型猪亲缘关系较近,同时表明两者已分别成为两个猛增的封闭群动物。

Blood groups and serum protein polymorphisms in the Pitman-Moore and Ohmini strains of miniature pigs

The variations of blood groups and biochemical polymorphisms in the populations of the two miniature pig strains reared in Japan were investigated in this report. The variations in eight blood group systems were investigated by using serological techniques, and five serum protein systems by using starch gel electrophoresis. The Pitman-Moore strain showed no variations in K, O, Tf, Cp and Am systems, but showed plymorphisms in A, E, F, G, H, L, Pa and Hpx systems. The Ohmini strain showed no or little variations in E, F, G, Tf, Pa and Cp systems, but showed polymorphisms in A, H, K, L, O, Hpx and Am systems. From the results of investigation of genetic similarities among nine pig populations including various breeds, it was made clear that the two miniature pig strains were very different genetically, and the Pitman-Moore strain was genetically closer to European large pig breeds than to East Asian native pigs, while the Ohmini strain was close to Thai and Philippine natives.     

Embryo collection from miniature pigs and production of the piglets after transfer to common pig recipients

Embryo collection from G?ttingen miniature pigs and transfer to common pig recipients were performed. Embryos were collected 2 to 6 days after the onset of estrus. Two to 7 eggs including unfertilized ova were collected from a naturally ovulated donor and more eggs (7 to 15) were obtained from a superovulated donor. A total of 21 piglets were born after transfer of 33 miniature pig embryos to two common pig recipients. Among them 12 were stillbirths which seemed to have resulted from suffocation during the parturition. Such an embryo transfer technique will be utilized as an inventive method for the purposes such as international exchange of the particular strains of miniature pigs, establishment of a SPF miniature pig herd and so on.     

Serum biochemistry of healthy Yucatan miniature pigs

Sera collected from 24 (12 boars and 12 gilts) healthy, fasted 28-43 week-old Yucatan miniature pigs were analyzed for 21 clinical chemistry parameters. The mean, standard deviation, median, and observed range for each parameter are presented as reference values for the normal blood chemistry for this breed. Comparison with published values reveals that the Yucatan miniature pig has a blood chemistry profile comparable to that of domestic pigs and other breeds of miniature swine.

Sleep apnea in obese miniature pigs

Lonergan, Robert P., III, J. Catsby Ware, Richard L. Atkinson, W. Christopher Winter, and Paul M. Suratt. Sleep apnea in obese miniature pigs. J. Appl.Physiol. 84(2): 531-536, 1998.We postulated thatthree extremely obese Yucatan miniature pigs would have more sleepapnea than three nonobese Yucatan miniature pigs. Pigs were studiedwith the use of electroencephalograms, inductance plethysmography,oximetry, expired nasal CO₂, orthermistors. All of the obese pigs, but none of the nonobese pigs, hadboth sleep apnea (8.5, 10.3, and 97.0 in obese pigs vs. 0 apnea + hypopnea/h in all nonobese pigs; P < 0.05) and oxyhemoglobin desaturation episodes during sleep [9.4 ± 3.0 vs. 0 + 0.53 (SD) mean desaturation episodes/h in obese pigsvs. nonobese pigs, respectively; P < 0.05]. Two of the extremely obese pigs had obstructive sleepapnea, whereas the third obese pig had central sleep apnea. We conclude that sleep apnea occurs in extremely obese Yucatan minipigs and suggestthat this animal can be used as a model for sleep apnea in obesity.

Characteristics and gender differences concerning pulmonary hemodynamics in Clawn miniature pigs.

The characteristics and gender differences of the pulmonary hemodynamic parameters of 16 Clawn miniature pigs were examined and the data were compared with reports concerning dogs and other pig species. The pulmonary systolic, diastolic and mean arterial blood pressures of the mini-pig were slightly higher than those of the dog, respectively, but both the right atrial pressure and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure were within the normal physiological ranges of the dog. Concerning gender differences in hemodynamic parameters of the mini-pig, the female values, except the right atrial pressure, were slightly higher than those of the male, but no significant differences were recognized. The present study results will help pulmonary researchers understand the differences between Clawn miniature pigs and dogs for accurate analysis of experimental results.     

Cardiac function and morphology of Hanford miniature swine and Yucatan miniature and micro swine

The use of miniature swine in biomedical research is increasing; however, a comparison of cardiac function and morphology between strains has yet to be characterized. The purpose of this project was to examine comprehensive hemodynamics and cardiac morphology of three groups of ten normal, 4 months old, age-matched Yucatan miniature (MINI) pigs, Yucatan micropigs (MICRO) and Hanford (HAN) miniature pigs, 5 males and five females per group. Closed chest cardiac catheterization under equivalent conditions was performed followed by post mortem cardiac morphometry. Mean arterial pressure was significantly greater in the Hanford group when compared to both the minipig and micropig pigs (HAN: 89 +/- 4; MINI: 48 +/- 3; MICRO: 53 +/- 2 mmHg). Pulmonary vascular resistance was significantly different between the three groups (HAN: 9 +/- 1; MINI: 60 +/- 12; MICRO: 111 +/- 29 dyne x sec/cm x m2). The Hanford strain had a significantly smaller heart weight to body weight ratio than the other two groups (HAN: 4.6 +/- 1.0; MINI: 5.7 +/- 0.1; MICRO: 5.5 +/- 1.0). Variations in cardiovascular parameters occur among these strains and should be considered when constructing experimental designs.
