大鼠冷束缚应激时胃粘膜损伤与外周β—内啡肽关系的实验研究

目的：探讨冷束缚应激大鼠血浆及胃黏膜中β－内啡肽（β－endorphine)的变化及作用。方法：制作大鼠冷束缚应激模型,以放免法测定应激0,1／4,2,8h血浆及胃黏膜中β－内啡肽的含量,同时测定胃液pH,胃黏膜溃疡指数（UI）,另设两预处理组,分别于应激前15分钟用纳洛酮（1．6mg/kg)和等容量生理盐水颈静脉注射,测定其UI及胃液pH,结果：整个应激过程中血浆及胃黏膜中β－内啡肽的含量无显著变化（P＞0．05）,应激各组胃黏膜UI均显著高于未应激组（P＜0．01）,应激15分钟组胃液pH显著高于未应激组（P＜0．01）,临终前（应激8h组）胃液pH显著高于对照组（P＜0．05）,阻断阴UI及胃液pH较对照组均无显著变化（P＞0．05）,结论：应激过程中血浆及胃黏膜β－内啡肽含量稳定,阻断β－内啡肽不影响胃液pH及UI,外周β－内啡肽变化对应激所致胃黏膜损伤可能不起重要作用。     

束缚浸水应激对大鼠肝胆汁分泌的影响及其作用机制的研究

目的：通过研究束缚浸水应激对大鼠肝胆汁分泌的影响,探讨其作用机制。方法：实验分6组（n=8）：A组：室温下单纯束缚＋生理盐水;B组：束缚浸水应激＋生理盐水;C组：室温下单纯束缚＋阿托品;D组：束缚浸水应激＋阿托品;E组：室温下单纯束缚＋酚妥拉明;F组：束缚浸水应激＋酚妥拉明。结果：与A组比较,B组肝胆汁分泌量显著减少（P〈0．05）,pH值显著升高（P〈0．01）;与A组比较,C组肝胆汁分泌量变化不明显,只有微量减少：E组与A组相对照肝胆汁分泌量无明显变化,但也有微量减少。与B组比较,D组肝胆汁分泌量有明显变化（P〈0．05）,肝胆汁pH无明显变化;F组与B组对照其肝胆汁分泌量有明显变化（P〈0．05）,肝胆汁pH无明显变化;D组与F组对照肝胆汁分泌量无明显变化,肝胆汁pH无明显变化。结论：束缚浸水应激对大鼠肝胆汁分泌有明显地抑制作用。浸水应激组肝胆汁的分泌量明显减少,肝胆汁的pH明显升高;迷走神经、交感神经在室温单纯束缚的情况下对肝胆汁的分泌影响较小,而在束缚浸水的情况下迷走神经、交感神经对肝胆汁的分泌有较显著的影响（P〈0．05）。     

大黄葸醌提取物对建鲤抗应激及生长的影响

将750尾建鲤随机分成5组,第1组为对照组,投喂基础日粮,另外4组为试验组,投喂基础日粮中分别添加0．5％、1．0％、2．0％、4．0％大黄蒽醌提取物。从2005年7月到9月连续投喂70d后,对鱼体进行高密度应激,测定其生长、应激前后血液皮质醇、血糖、溶菌酶等变化。结果表明：与对照组相比,应激前添加大黄葸醌提取物提高了鱼体增重率、特定生长率、鱼体丰满度、血液溶菌酶活性,降低了饵料系数与鱼体死亡率,但是与大黄葸醌提取物的添加水平不成线性关系,其中2．0％试验组还显著降低了血液皮质醇。高密度应激1d后,各组血液中的皮质醇、血糖、溶菌酶都有不同程度的增加,其中对照组最高,添加1．0％和2．0％大黄蒽醌提取物的试验组相对较低。应激前后各组鱼的攻毒试验表明：除应激前添加1．0％和2．0％大黄蒽醌提取物的组没有死鱼外,其它各组都有死鱼,其中对照组死亡率最高。因此添加1．0％-2．0％大黄蒽醌提取物提高了机体抗应激能力,并对病原菌感染起一定的保护作用,促进了鱼体生长。     

应激对免疫功能的影响

应激(stress)可产生广泛的、复杂的生物学效应,如神经内分泌系统功能的改变、心血、管反应,以及心理和行为方面的变化等。长期在应激状态下生活可导致机体抗病能力下降,从而产生多种疾病,这可能是机体免疫功能下降的一种反映。近年来已有许多学者报道应激可通过神经内分泌系统的作用影响机体的免疫功能。一、应激与疾病的关系应激对于多种疾病的发病、演变以至结局都有密切的关系,这是由于应激可使机体产生复杂的生理和心理反应。关于机体在应激过程中所表现出的各种反应机制,众说不一,早期     

维生素C和酸应激对中华鳖幼鳖血清补体C3和C4含量的影响

为研究维生素C对中华鳖(Pelodiscus sinensis)血清补体C3和C4的影响及其在酸应激条件下的变化,我们设置了6个实验组,饵料中维生素C的添加量依次为0、250、500、2500、5000和10000mg／kg,喂食4周后取其血清,用透射比浊法测定酸应激前后中华鳖血清补体C3和C4的含量。结果表明,维生素C添加量为250mg／kg时,血清补体C3的含量与对照组间没有明显不同;维生素C添加量为500、2500、5000和10000mg／kg的4组,血清补体C3的含量明显高于对照组和维生素C添加量为250mg／kg组;维生素C添加量为500mg／kg的一组,血清补体CA含量明显高于其它5组;维生素C添加量为250mg／kg组明显高于10000mg／kg组。酸应激后,补体C3的含量没有明显下降,将维生素C添加量为0、250和500mg／kg的三组并为一组处理,则应激后有明显下降。维生素C添加量为0、250和500mg／kg的3组,血清补体CA的含量在酸应激后明显下降,而维生素C添加量为2500、5000和10000mg／kg的3组,应激后血清补体C4没有明显变化。维生素C和酸应激对中华鳖血清补体C3和CA含量的影响没有交互作用。这说明,维生素C在一定剂量范围内,能提高中华鳖血清补体C3和CA的水平,酸应激能导致其含量降低,而高剂量的维生素C对其下降有颉颃作用[动物学报49(6)：769～774,2003]。

不同水温游泳对小鼠行为,记忆和脂质过氧化影响差异的研究

目的 :探讨不同强度应激对小鼠衰老改变影响的差异。方法 :用D 半乳糖进行衰老诱导的小鼠同步进行不同水温 (12℃、18℃、2 5℃ )游泳应激训练 ,连续六周后 ,进行开场行为、学习记忆能力、半脑MDA含量及海马SOD活性测定。结果 :D 半乳糖诱导组 (D)较对照组 (C)探究行为减少 ,获得性行为能力减退 (P <0 .0 1) ,且脑内脂褐素含量明显增加 (P <0 .0 5 ) ;18℃及 2 5℃水温应激训练有对抗D 半乳糖所致行为和学习记忆能力减退的作用 (P <0 .0 1) ,同时脑中抗氧化能力提高 (P <0 .0 5 ) ,而 12℃水温组学习记忆能力进一步减退 ,海马SOD活性进一步下降(P <0 .0 5 ) ,且各项行为能力及SOD活性与 18℃和 2 5℃组均有显著差异 (P <0 .0 1)。结论 :不同水温游泳应激对机体的影响具有双重性 ,适量的应激刺激可逆转机体的衰老改变 ,提高动物的学习记忆能力 ,而过强的应激刺激有加速衰老进程的倾向。两种应激对机体抗氧化能力的不同改变可能是引起这一差异的原因。     

Keap1/Nrf2/ARE通路相关基因在热诱导的氧化应激小鼠肝脏中的表达

为了研究热应激对小鼠肝脏抗氧化功能及Keap1 (kelch-like ECH-associated protein- 1)/Nrf2（NF-E2-related factor 2）/ARE (antioxidant response element)通路相关基因表达的影响,选用30只8周龄雄性小鼠随机分成6组,每 d连续42 ℃热处理2 h,分别在热处理0 d(对照组)、1 d、2 d、4 d、8 d和12 d时观察肝脏组织形态学和免疫组织化学分析,另取一部分肝脏组织保存于-80 ℃用于后续荧光定量PCR实验,检测肝脏抗氧化指标及Keap1/Nrf2/ARE通路相关基因的表达．结果显示：小鼠的体表温度和直肠温度在热处理后都极显著高于热处理前．组织形态学观察发现,热处理导致小鼠肝脏组织充血和肝细胞水肿．小鼠肝脏氧化应激指标 MDA (malondialdehyde)含量在热处理第2 d较对照组显著升高,GSH (glutathione)含量、GSH-PX (glutathione peroxidase)活力和总SOD (superoxide dismutase)活力在第4 d和12 d都有升高．免疫组织化学发现,与对照组和第12 d组相比,Nrf2蛋白在第1 d,2 d,4 d,8 d表达明显,其中Nrf2蛋白在第4 d表达最为显著. 荧光定量RT PCR结果表明,与对照组比较Keap1基因的表达量从热处理第1 d开始显著降低,Nrf2基因的表达量在第4 d和12 d显著升高,HO-1 (Heme oxygenase-1)基因的表达量在第1 d显著升高,NQO1 (Quinone oxidoreductase)和GCLC (Glutamate cysteine ligase catalytic)基因的表达量在第1 d和4 d显著升高．上述结果表明,热应激引起了小鼠肝脏氧化损伤, Keap1/Nrf2/ARE通路可能参与了肝脏自身缓解热应激的过程.     

Stress adaptation and low-frequency impedance of rat lungs

At transpulmonary pressures (Ptp) of 7-12 cmH2O, pressure-volume hysteresis of isolated cat lungs has been found to be 20-50% larger than predicted from their amount of stress adaptation (J. Hildebrandt, J. Appl. Physiol. 28: 365-372, 1970). This behavior is inconsistent with linear viscoelasticity and has been interpreted in terms of plastoelasticity. We have reinvestigated this phenomenon in isolated lungs from 12 Wistar rats by measuring 1) the changes in Ptp after 0.5-ml step volume changes (initial Ptp of 5 cmH2O) and 2) their response to sinusoidal pressure forcing from 0.01 to 0.67 Hz (2 cmH2O peak to peak, mean Ptp of 6 cmH2O). Stress adaptation curves were found to fit approximately Hildebrandt's logarithmic model [delta Ptp/delta V = A - B.log(t)] from 0.2 to 100 s, where delta V is the step volume change, A and B are coefficients, and t is time. A and B averaged 1.06 +/- 0.11 and 0.173 +/- 0.019 cmH2O/ml, respectively, with minor differences between stress relaxation and stress recovery curves. The response to sinusoidal forcing was characterized by the effective resistance (Re) and elastance (EL). Re decreased from 2.48 +/- 0.41 cmH2O.ml-1.s at 0.01 Hz to 0.18 +/- 0.03 cmH2O.ml-1.s at 0.5 Hz, and EL increased from 0.99 +/- 0.10 to 1.26 +/- 0.20 cmH2O/ml on the same frequency range. These data were analyzed with the frequency-domain version of the same model, complemented by a Newtonian resistance (R) to account for airway resistance: Re = R + B/ (9.2f) and EL = A + 0.25B + B . log 2 pi f, where f is the frequency.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Biomass Carbon Accounting Parameters for Young and Middle Aged Plantation of Simao Pine (Pinus kesiya var.langbianensis)

Based on data collected from field surveys, biomass carbon accounting parameters including biomass conversion and expansion factor (BCEF), biomass expansion factor (BEF) and root shoot ratio (R) for Pinus kesiya var. langbianensis plantation were calculated, and relationships between the parameters and relative stand factors were studied. Main findings were as follows. (1) Mean BCEF for Pinus kesiya var. langbianensis plantation was 05483 Mg m 3(n=30, 95% confidence interval=05357-05609), lower than the IPCC default value. BCEF for Pinus kesiya var langbianensis plantation was negatively related to stand form height (FH), mean stand height (H), stand growing stock (V) and stand age(A) (P<005). BCEF was negatively related to mean diameter at breast height (D), but not statistically significant（P >005）, positively related to stand density (N), not statistically significant（P>005）. Regression equations developed for calculating BCEF with stand factors did not give satisfied estimates. (2) Mean BEF for Pinus kesiya var langbianensis plantation was 178378 (n=30, 95% confidence interval=171714-185043), higher than the IPCC default value. BEF was negatively related to D、H、FH、V and A (P <001), positively related to N (P <005). Regression equations of y=a+bx+cx2 performed well to calculating BEF with A and V as variables. Regression equation of y=a+b/x performed well to calculate BEF with N. Regression equations of y=a xb performed well to calculate BEF with FH、H and D as variables. (3) Mean R for Pinus kesiya varlangbianensis plantation was 02400 (n=30, 95% confidence interval=02194-02606), close to the IPCC default value. R was negatively related to D、H、FH、V and A (P <001), positively related to N (P <005). Regression equations of y= a+bx +cx2 performed well to calculate R with D、H、FH、V and Aas variables. Regression equation of y=a+b/x performed well to calculate R with N.     

Acute Short-Term Mental Stress Does Not Influence Salivary Flow Rate Dynamics

Background: Results of studies that address the influence of stress on salivary flow rate and composition are controversial. The aim of this study was to reveal the influence of stress vulnerability and different phases of stress reactivity on the unstimulated and stimulated salivary flow rate. We examined that acute mental stress does not change the salivary flow rate. In addition, we also examined the salivary cortisol and protein level in relation to acute mental stress stimuli. Methods: Saliva of male subjects was collected for five minutes before, immediately, 10, 30 and 120 min after toothbrushing. Before toothbrushing, the subjects were exposed to acute stress in the form of a 2 min public speech. Salivary flow rate and total protein was measured. The physiological stress marker cortisol was analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. To determine the subjects'' psychological stress reaction, the State-Trait-Anxiety Inventory State questionnaire (STAI) data were obtained. The subjects were divided into stress subgroup (S1) (psychological reactivity), stress subgroup (S2) (psychological and physiological reactivity) and a control group. The area under the curve for salivarycortisol concentration and STAI-State scores were calculated. All data underwent statistical analysis using one-way analysis of variance. Results: Immediately after stress exposure, all participants exhibited a psychological stress reaction. Stress exposure did not change the salivary flow rate. Only 69% of the subjects continued to display a physiological stress reaction 20 minutes after the public talk. There was no significant change in the salivary flow rate during the psychological and the physiological stress reaction phases relative to the baseline. Conclusions: Acute stress has no impact on the salivary flow rate; however, there may be other responses through salivary proteins that are increased with the acute stress stimuli. Future studies are needed to examine specific proteins and their possible roles in acute stress responses.     

Simultaneous determination of 6beta-hydroxycortisol and cortisol in human urine by liquid chromatography with ultraviolet absorbance detection for phenotyping the CYP3A activity determined by the cortisol 6beta-hydroxylation clearance

This study describes a high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the simultaneous determination of 6beta-hydroxycortisol (6beta-OHF) and cortisol in human urine using either methylprednisolone or beclomethasone as internal standard. Separation was achieved on a reversed-phase phenyl column by a gradient elution of 0.05 M KH(2)PO(4)-0.01 M CH(3)COOH (pH 3.77) and 0.05 M KH(2)PO(4)-0.01 M CH(3)COOH with acetonitrile (4:6, v/v). 6beta-Hydroxycortisol and cortisol were monitored by UV absorption at 239 nm. The lower quantitation limits of the present HPLC method were 21.5 ng/ml for 6beta-OHF and 5.0 ng/ml for cortisol in urine. The within-day reproducibilities in the amounts of 6beta-OHF and cortisol determined were in good agreement with the actual amounts added, the relative error being less than 1.59%. The inter-assay precisions (R.S.D. values) were less than 7.91% for 6beta-OHF and cortisol. The method was compared with the GC/MS method by measuring 6beta-OHF in the same urine samples. A good correlation was found between the amounts determined by the two methods. The regression equations for the HPLC (y) and GC/MS (x) methods were: y=1.0701x+17.389 (r=0.9772) for methylprednisolone as internal standard and y=1.0827x+6.1364 (r=0.9794) for beclomethasone as internal standard.     

松嫩平原碱化草甸朝鲜碱茅、獐茅耐盐碱特性的比较研究

本研究通过野外调查与室内实验相结合的方法,从生态学、生理学方面探讨了松嫩平原碱化草甸朝鲜碱茅和獐毛耐盐碱的特性,结果表明：两种植物均生长在含盐、潮湿而贫瘠的土壤上,朝鲜碱茅分布地段的土壤多含碱性盐(Na2CO3)。而獐毛所在地的土壤则多含中性盐(NaCl),这些体现出它们对盐碱适应性的差异。不同浓度的NaCl、Na2CO3胁迫对这两种植物的细胞膜透性、游离脯氨酸含量有明显影响。均以logistic曲线y=k/(1+ea-bx)或直线方程：y=a+bx形式较好地表达出来。说明朝鲜碱茅对NaCl的胁迫敏感,獐毛则对Na2CO3的胁迫敏感。两种植物在自然条件下的生态适应与实验条件下的生理适应相近。

Osmotic flow equations for leaky porous membranes

A basic set of equations describing the flows of volume (Jv) and solute (Js) across a leaky porous membrane, coupled to the differences of osmotic and hydrostatic pressures d pi and dP has been derived by using general frictional theory. Denoting the mean pore concentration of solute by c*s and the hydraulic and diffusive conductances by Lp and Ps/RT the equations take the form Jv = LpdP + sigma sLp d pi Js = c*s(1 - sigma f)Jv + Ps d pi/RT sigma s = theta (1 - DsVs/DwVw - Ds/Dos) sigma f = 1 - theta DsVs/DwVw - Ds/Dos in which Dw and Ds are the diffusion coefficients for water and solute in the pore and Dos that for free solution. The relation between the reflection coefficients sigma s and sigma f for osmosis and ultrafiltration is then given by sigma s = sigma f - (1- theta)(1 - Ds/Dos), where theta is the diffusive-driven:pressure-driven flow ratio. These equations follow from the fact that in leaky pores osmosis occurs by diffusion alone and that there cannot be any Onsager symmetry leading to sigma s = sigma f. Symmetry holds in the limits where either the pore is small, when sigma s = sigma f = 1, or where the pore is large when sigma s = sigma f = 0.     

New Hope for Correctional Officers: An Innovative Program for Reducing Stress and Health Risks

This study investigated the impact of a new stress management program on physiological and psychological stress and health risk factors among 75 correctional officers. The experimental group received training in emotion self-regulation techniques intended to reduce stress and health risk factors. Practice of the techniques was enhanced by heart rate variability feedback, which helped participants learn and sustain use of the self-management tools. Measures of physiological stress included cortisol, DHEA, cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting glucose levels, 10-min resting electrocardiogram, heart rate variability, and blood pressure. Three psychological questionnaires assessed emotional stress and work-related variables. There were significant improvements in the experimental group in cholesterol, glucose, heart rate, blood pressure and positive outlook and significant reductions in overall psychological distress. There were significant increases in productivity, motivation, goal clarity, and perceived support. The mean difference between pre- and post-intervention projected health care costs was calculated to be $1,179 per employee per year.     

Sister-chromatid exchange in childhood in relation to age and sex

Small children have been found to have a lower SCE/cell than adults and in recent reports females have had higher SCEs/cell than males. We here describe the relationship between SCE/cell and age and sex in 46 girls and 39 boys with an age range of 1.4-19.2 years and 2.6-18.7 years, respectively. For the calculation a transformation y = (sum SCE)1/2 + (sum SCE + 1)1/2 was used. The best fit to our material was represented by the equation y = b0 + b1 X log age. A common slope (b1) could be used for the boys and girls. This slope was significantly different from zero (P less than 0.0005). The levels of the regression lines for the two sexes were different (P = 0.0006). The girls had a 0.55-0.7 higher SCE/cell than the boys, depending on age. The following equations were found: Girls: y = 22.49 + 6.53 X log age. Boys: y = 21.11 + 6.53 X log age. By this model 43% of the variation in y could be explained. As a consequence of the result it is absolutely essential, when planning studies of children, to use age-matched groups to decrease the variability of the test system.
