Dispersed ovine luteal cells collected on day 7 or 16 postestrus were incubated in vitro with hCG, PGE1 or PGE2 in the presence or absence of adenosine, dipyridamole (inhibitor of adenosine uptake) or PGF2 alpha in two separate experiments. Secretion of progesterone was increased by hCG, PGE1 or PGE2 when incubated with day 7 luteal cells (P less than or equal to 0.05) which was increased further when co-incubated with adenosine (P less than or equal to 0.05). PGF2 alpha alone or in the presence of hCG decreased (P less than or equal to 0.05) the secretion of progesterone by day 7 luteal cells, PGF2 alpha decreased post treatment cell viability with or without hCG (P less than or equal to 0.05) and adenosine reduced (P less than or equal to 0.05) the inhibitory effect of PGF2 alpha on hCG actions and luteal cell viability. Day 16 luteal cells were not functional based on jugular progesterone (P less than or equal to 0.05) and did not respond to hCG, PGE1, or PGE2 in the presence of adenosine or PGF2 alpha (P greater than or equal to 0.05). It is concluded that adenosine enhances the response of functional luteal cells to the luteotropins hCG, PGE1 or PGE2 and adenosine reduces the luteolytic response to PGF2 alpha by hCG-stimulated ovine luteal cells in vitro. 相似文献

Experimental intrauterine growth retardation was studied in sheep. Endometrial caruncles (anlagen of maternal cotyledon) were removed before pregnancy and at a second operation, catheters were implanted into the ewe and fetus at 105-135 days of pregnancy. Three groups of fetuses were defined: low birthweight-for-dates (small-caruncle), normal birthweight-for-dates (normal-sized-caruncle) from ewes which had endometrial caruncles removed and the controls. The mean placental weights in these groups were 139 plus or minus 5 g, 283 plus or minus 46 g, 334 plus or minus 22 g respectively. The brains, kidneys and adrenals of the small-caruncle-fetuses were significantly greater in proportion to body weight than in the controls and the appearance of ossification centres was delayed. Arterial oxygen tension was lower and packed cell volume higher in the small-caruncle-fetuses (PaO2 15 plus or minus 0.6 mmHg; packed cell volume 37.3 plus or minus 1.6%) and normal sized caruncles (PaO2 20.7 plus or minus 1.2 mmHg; packed cell volume 35.2 plus or minus 0.7%) than in the controls (PaO2 23.2 plus or minus 0.7 mmHg; packed cell volume 29.8 plus or minus 0.7%). Plasma concentrations of glucose (0.65 plus or minus 0.12 micromol/ml), lactate (0.9 plus or minus 0.1 micromol/ml) and pyruvate (0.08 plus or minus 0.025 micromol/ml) were lower in small-caruncle fetuses than in the control fetuses (glucose 1.05 plus or minus 0.06 micromol/ml, lactate 1.83 plus or minus 0.7 micromol/ml, pyruvate 0.21 plus or minus 0.06 micromol/ml). The corresponding values for the normal-sized-caruncle fetuses were glucose 0.71 plus or minus 0.12, lactate 1.18 plus or minus 0.7 and pyruvate 0.12 plus or minus 0.03 micromol/ml. The plasma concentration of alanine in the small-caruncle-fetuses (0.25 plus or minus 0.09 micromol/ml) was higher than in the normal-sized-caruncle (0.073 plus or minus 0.009 micromol/ml) or control fetuses (0.12 plus or minus 0.013 micromol/ml). The results indicate that fetal growth retardation due to restriction of placental growth after removal of endometrial caruncles is associated with chronic hypoxaemia, polycythaemia and hypoglycaemia. The restriction of nutrient supply probably accounts for the altered pattern of fetal growth but the relative importance of the changes observed remains uncertain. 相似文献

Biological interactions among clonal marine organisms are an important aspect of their behavior and are important in the construction
of biological reefs. The interactions addressed here are among crustose and erect coralline algae, sponges, corals, and bryozoans,
and may involve clones of the same species (conspecific), or different species (heterospecific). Conspecific interactions
may be either between modules or clones that are produced asexually from one propagule, genetically identical, or between
clones that are sexually produced from two or more propagules that may or may not be genetically identical. Juxtaposed genetically
identical clones generally fuse whereas non-identical clones may or may not fuse, depending on their relatedness and histocompatibility.
Most heterospecific clonal interactions are spatially competitive and result in overgrowths or stand-offs. Clone fission/fragmentation
may occur as a result of biotic or abiotic processes that initially degrade but may eventually restore or even enhance ability
to gain space and/or nutrients. Self-overgrowths also occur, usually over dead, diseased, or senescent parts of the same clone. 相似文献

The primary radiologic evidence of intra-abdominal hernia is disturbance of normal small intestine arrangement. Loops of intestine are crowded together as if in a bag, giving the appearance of clumping or sacculation. Dilatation and loss of mobility may occur with varying degrees of stasis. Displacement of viscera or pressure deformity may be observed.Studies of the small bowel are necessary to demonstrate these conditions and must be made with the patient in the erect as well as the horizontal position. Repeated studies may be required, and the best time to make them is during an acute attack, as the hernia may be temporarily reduced during a remission.The clinical symptoms are sufficiently characteristic to suggest the diagnosis in most cases. The usual history is of repeated attacks of abdominal pain or discomfort, usually accompanied by distention, varying in periodicity and intensity, with or without nausea or vomiting, and not accompanied by laboratory data or clinical signs indicative of inflammatory disease.Similar or identical clinical and roentgenologic evidence may be produced by torsion of the small bowel or by peritoneal adhesions.The hernia or torsion may reduce spontaneously before or at the time of operation. Therefore, a careful search for abnormal fossae, mesenteric defects or adhesive bands is necessary if herniation or torsion is not found. 相似文献

Two separate experiments were conducted to determine whether prostaglandin (PG) E2 stimulates the secretion of progesterone by 270- or 200-day Brahman placentas in vitro. Secretion of progesterone, PGF2alpha, pregnancy specific protein B, or estradiol-17beta by 270-day Brahman placentas was not affected (p > or = 0.05) by PGE2, during the 4-h incubation period at the doses tested. Indomethacin or meclofenamic acid decreased (p < or = 0.05) 270-day Brahman placental secretion of PGE and PGF2alpha by 98 and 60%, respectively. However, PGE2 induced (p < or = 0.05) its own secretion, but not the secretion of PGF2alpha (p > or = 0.05), by 270-day Brahman placentas, even in the presence of indomethacin or meclofenamic acid at a dose of 100 ng/mL. Also, secretion of 8-Epi-PGE2 by Day 270 Brahman placentas was increased (p < or = 0.05) by PGE2. Secretion of progesterone, estradiol-17beta, or pregnancy specific protein B by 200-day Brahman placentas was not affected by PGE2, 8-Epi-PGE2, PGF2alpha, estradiol-17beta, or trichosanthin during the 4- or 8-h incubation period (p > or = 0.05). Secretion of estradiol-17beta at 8 h was lower (p < or = 0.05) in all treatment groups and did not differ (p > or = 0.05) among the 8-h incubation treatment groups. Secretion of PGE by 200-day Brahman placentas was reduced (p < 0.05) by indomethacin 72 and 82% and by meclofenamic acid 72 and 96%, respectively, at 4 and 8 h when compared to controls. Secretion of PGF2alpha was reduced (p < or = 0.05) 71 and 86% by indomethacin or 89 and 89% by meclofenamic acid at 4 and 8 h, respectively, and did not differ (p > or = 0.05) between 4 and 8 h of incubation. PGE2 did not (p > or = 0.05) induce secretion of PGE above what was added in any treatment group. PGE in culture media was increased (p < or = 0.05) by 8-Epi-PGE2, pregnancy specific protein B, and the 100 ng/mL PGF2alpha dose (p < or = 0.05), but not by PGE2, progesterone, estradiol-17beta, 8-Epi-PGF2alpha, or trichosanthin. Secretion of PGF2alpha by 200-day Brahman placentas was not affected (p > or = 0.05) by 8-Epi-PGE2, progesterone, or estradiol-17beta, but PGF2alpha secretion was increased (p < or = 0.05) by trichosanthin or PGE2, even in the presence of indomethacin or meclofenamic acid. It is concluded that PGE does not affect secretion of progesterone by 200- or 270-day bovine placentas, but, pregnancy specific protein B may regulate placental secretion of PGE. Also, indomethacin and meclofenamic may affect enzymes converting PGH to PGE rather than acting only on cyclooxygenase because indomethacin and meclofenamic acid lowered PGE secretion by 270-day Brahman placentas more than they lowered PGF2alpha. In addition, it is concluded that PGE2 can induce bovine placental secretion of PGE, but this is dependent upon the stage of gestation. 相似文献

Peroxidase catalysed the formation of active oxygen in the presence of NADH or GSH and traces of H2O2 and arylamine or phenolic substrates. Some oxygen activation occurred with some arylamines even in the absence of NADH or GSH. Oxygen consumption was proportional to the NADH oxidized or GSSG formed. Approximately 0.80 and 0.40 mol of oxygen were consumed per mole of NADH or GSH oxidized respectively. The requirement for trace amounts of hydrogen peroxide and arylamine or phenolic substrates suggest that redox cycling resulted in H2O2 formation. It is proposed that initially formed phenoxy radicals or arylamine cation radicals oxidize NADH or GSH to radicals which react with oxygen to form superoxide radicals and H2O2. 相似文献

Polyphasic typing of Cryptosporidium baileyi: a suggested model for characterization of cryptosporidia 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The present study was undertaken to characterize the oocyst morphology, host specificity, organ location, virulence, and sequences of the small subunit ribosomal RNA, 70-kDa heat shock protein, and oocyst wall protein genes of Cryptosporidium baileyi, and to compare this strain with other Cryptosporidium species. This study also aims to serve as a model for polyphasic (phenetic and genetic) characterization of Cryptosporidium species and strains. On the basis of these results, further genetic and phenetic characterization of an avian isolate is needed if the difference between the length or width, or both, of oocysts of an isolate and of C. baileyi is > or = 10% or if the difference between the oocyst shape index of the isolate and of C. baileyi is > or = 3% (or both). The isolate is infectious for mammals or lower vertebrates, or the host range is narrow, i.e., infectious only for some bird species; after oral or intratracheal inoculation, the parasites are not located in the cloaca and in the bursa of Fabricius or the respiratory tract; clinical disease or weight gain reduction can be observed after oral inoculation; the genetic distance for the examined gene between C. baileyi and the isolate is similar in magnitude to that observed between most closely related Cryptosporidium species. 相似文献

Binding enthalpies of various hormones to bovine serum albumin (BSA) and human serum albumin (HSA) in 50 mM phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, at 37 degrees C have been determined by direct microcalorimetry. The observed enthalpies of binding of progesterone, testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, corticosterone and estriol to BSA were found to be -13.24 plus or minus 0.11 -10.31 plus or minus 0.02, -2.37 plus or minus 0.46, -17.64 plus or minus 0.32 and -17.14 plus or minus 0.36 kcal/mol of hormone, respectively. under the same experimental conditions the enthalpies of binding of progesterone, testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, corticosterone and estriol to HSA were found to be -23.94 plus or minus 0.32, -18.88 plus or minus 0.49, -11.14 plus or minus 0.02, -9.88 plus or minus 0.14 and -20.85 plus or minus 0.39 kcal/mol of hormone, respectively. 相似文献

The approach that most animal cells employ to regulate intracellular pH (pH(i)) is not too different conceptually from the way a sophisticated system might regulate the temperature of a house. Just as the heat capacity (C) of a house minimizes sudden temperature (T) shifts caused by acute cold and heat loads, the buffering power (beta) of a cell minimizes sudden pH(i) shifts caused by acute acid and alkali loads. However, increasing C (or beta) only minimizes T (or pH(i)) changes; it does not eliminate the changes, return T (or pH(i)) to normal, or shift steady-state T (or pH(i)). Whereas a house may have a furnace to raise T, a cell generally has more than one acid-extruding transporter (which exports acid and/or imports alkali) to raise pH(i). Whereas an air conditioner lowers T, a cell generally has more than one acid-loading transporter to lower pH(i). Just as a house might respond to graded decreases (or increases) in T by producing graded increases in heat (or cold) output, cells respond to graded decreases (or increases) in pH(i) with graded increases (or decreases) in acid-extrusion (or acid-loading) rate. Steady-state T (or pH(i)) can change only in response to a change in chronic cold (or acid) loading or chronic heat (or alkali) loading as produced, for example, by a change in environmental T (or pH) or a change in the kinetics of the furnace (or acid extrudes) or air conditioner (or acid loaders). Finally, just as a temperature-control system might benefit from environmental sensors that provide clues about cold and heat loading, at least some cells seem to have extracellular CO(2) or extracellular HCO(3)(-) sensors that modulate acid-base transport. 相似文献

Condensation of carminomycin or daunorubicin with glutaric dialdehyde in the presence of NaBH3CN yielded 3'-deamino-3'-piperidinocarminomycin or 3'-deamino-3'-piperidinodaunorubicin and corresponding (13-R, S)-dihydroderivatives. To prepare similar derivatives of 14-hydroxycarminomycin or doxorubicin, 13-dimethylketals of 14-bromocarminomycin or 13-bromodaunorubicin were used in the reaction of reductive alkylation with glutaric or glycolic dialdehyde to give 3'-deamino-3'-piperidino- or 3'-deamino-3'-morpholino derivatives of 13-dimethylketals of 14-bromocarminomycin or daunorubicin, respectively. After deblocking and subsequent hydrolysis of these compounds 3'-deamino-3'-piperidino- and 3'-deamino-3'-morpholino derivatives of 13-hydroxycarminomycin or doxorubicin were prepared. Reduction of the antibiotic derivatives under mass spectrometry conditions was demonstrated. 相似文献

Several types of limb deformities were induced by vitamin A in B. melanostictus. These ranged from total suppression of all the limbs (ectromelia) to partial development of either the forelimb or the hindlimb or both (mesomelia) to reduction or absence of digits in either the forelimbs or hindlimbs or both and absence of long bones in either the forelimbs or hindlimbs or both (phocomelia) or duplication of the hindlimbs (polymelia). All the limb abnormalities were induced in the developing limbs of the tail amputated tadpoles of B. melanostictus following vitamin A treatment, which is all the more interesting. The results suggest that vitamin A induces the above mentioned abnormalities by either switching on or over-expressing or disrupting the limb-specific hox genes by yet unknown mechanisms. 相似文献

The aim of this review is to describe an in vivo assay of the interactions taking place in the Tol-Pal or TonB-ExbB-ExbD envelope complexes in the periplasm of Escherichia coli and between them and colicins or g3p protein of filamentous bacteriophages. Domains of colicins or periplasmic soluble domains of Tol or TonB proteins can be artificially addressed to the periplasm of bacteria by fusing them to a signal sequence from an exported protein. These domains interact specifically in the periplasm with the Tol or TonB complexes and disturb their function, which can be directly detected by the appearance of specific tol or tonB phenotypes. This technique can be used to detect new interactions, to characterize them biochemically and to map them or to induce tol or tonB phenotypes to study the functions of these two complexes. 相似文献

Experimental study of changes in osteoblastic shape induced by calcitonin and parathyroid extract in an organ culture system 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Summary Neonate rat endocranial osteoblasts were cultured on their bone surfaces in control medium (CC) or medium to which either parathyroid extract (PTE) or calcitonin (CT) had been added for 2, 4, 8 or 24 h. Some were cultured for 24 h in CC, then for 2, 4, 8 or 24 h in either CT or PTE medium; or for 24 h in PTE, then for 2, 4, 8 or 24 h in either CC or CT; or 24 h in CT and 2, 4, 8 or 24 h in CC. The dorsal ruffling of the cells in CC was found to be suppressed by later culturing with PTE and the disoriented cells reorganized to form arrays of parallel cells. The effects of PTE were also reversed by CC or CT: the osteoblasts in the second culture (CC) lost elongation and order, and proceeded through a proliferative phase before exhibiting the ruffling form similar to a single CC 24 h culture. PTE-cultured osteoblasts showed an increase in cell overlap and contact so that a more competent barrier was formed separating the bone from the medium. In control or CT medium, however, intercellular gaps were greater than in vivo.We are grateful for the expert technical assistance of Elaine Bailey, for laboratory facilities kindly provided by Dr. Martin Evans, and for financial support from the Medical Research Council 相似文献

Males and females differ physiologically, but they also do different things. Thus, we when we note sex differences in average rates of parasite prevalence, incidence or intensity of infection, or in clinical outcome, we may attribute such differences either to the different physiology, or to different activities, or to some combination of differences between the sexes. Hence the subject of this month's debate-to explore the question of ‘why do certain males or females have higher or lower incidence or prevalence or severity of parasitic infection?’ Don Bundy opens with a discussion of the epidemiological patterns, while Jim Alexander and Bill Stimson explore some of the physiological effects of sex and sex hormones on the host's immune response to infection. 相似文献

TPI tests were carried out on 4,060 sera. Among 3,934 patients with reactive STS and no history of syphilis, 2,148 or 54.6 per cent had negative reaction to TPI tests, 1,695 or 43.1 per cent had positive reaction and 91 or 2.3 per cent had doubtful reaction. Two hundred and ninety-two or 73.0 per cent of 400 pregnant women with reaction to STS in the absence of a history of syphilis showed negative results by TPI test, 103 or 25.8 per cent had positive results and five or 1.2 per cent had doubtful reaction.Ninety-five or 75.4 per cent of 126 patients with a history of treated syphilis had positive reaction to TPI tests, 20 or 20.2 per cent had negative reaction and nine or 9.1 per cent had doubtful reaction.TPI and TPIA tests were done on 143 sera carefully selected for the study. Among 102 sera subjected to the TPI test, 46 or 100 per cent of these positive were also positive by TPIA tests, while 52 or 94.5 per cent of 55 TPI-negative sera were also nonreactive by TPIA test. One serum gave doubtful TPI test reaction and positive TPIA test reaction. 相似文献
