Ghrelin、KGF、TGF-β(β2、β3)在大鵟胃肠道中的表达

应用免疫组织化学方法和体视学半定量方法,检测了ghrelin、KGF、TGF-β(TGF-β_2,TGF-β_3)在大鵟(Buteo hemilasius)胃肠道中的表达,利用IPP专业图像分析软件对其表达强度进行了定量分析.结果表明,ghrelin免疫反应阳性物质分布在十二指肠、空肠、回肠、盲肠和直肠的黏膜层,主要分布于黏膜上皮、肠腺上皮和固有层.从十二指肠到盲肠阳性细胞的分布密度逐渐减小,直肠阳性细胞的分布密度高于盲肠.胃肠道呈KGF免疫反应阳性,胃内阳性物质分布于腺胃浅腺和深腺、肌胃黏膜、肌胃单管腺的上皮细胞;肠内阳性物质分布于固有层的血管、淋巴和平滑肌纤维.胃黏膜、腺胃深腺、肌胃单管腺、肠道黏膜、肠腺呈TGF-β_2及TGF-β_3免疫反应阳性,阳性物质分布于黏膜、肠腺上皮细胞胞质中.图像分析显示,KGF的阳性表达水平呈波浪形变化,在空肠和直肠处达到峰值;TGF-β2的阳性表达水平呈波浪形变化,分别在肌胃和空肠处有峰值;TGF-β_3从腺胃到空肠阳性表达水平逐渐增强,之后阳性表达水平又逐渐下降,到盲肠阳性表达水平回升.ghrelin、KGF、TGF-β_2和TGF-β_3的阳性表达强弱可能与胃肠道的消化能力有关,它们的协同表达调控鸟类胃肠道的生长和发育.     

黑麂肝、小肠和大肠的组织学结构及Ghrelin的分布

研究了成年雌性黑麂(Muntiacus crinifrons)的肝、小肠和大肠的组织学结构及Ghrelin的分布。采用H.E染色法观察组织学结构,免疫组化PV-9000两步法并结合DAB显色技术确定Ghrelin的分布。结果表明,黑麂的肝组织分为被膜、肝小叶、肝中央静脉、门管区等结构。被膜为浆膜结构,肝小叶不明显。肝细胞以中央静脉为中心,呈放射状排列。肝血窦的形状不规则。肠黏膜上皮为单层柱状上皮,小肠、盲肠和结肠的黏膜肌层很薄,管壁皱襞与肠绒毛等形态在消化道各部也存在差异。免疫组化结果显示肝细胞中有Ghrelin阳性细胞的表达;在肠道,免疫阳性细胞在十二指肠、空肠、回肠、盲肠和直肠的黏膜、黏膜下层和肌层均有分布,尤其在肠绒毛上皮和黏膜下层分布较多。黑麂肝、小肠和大肠结构与哺乳动物基本相似,但无十二指肠腺;Ghrelin阳性细胞在肝、小肠和大肠均有分布,这表明Ghrelin可能对消化有一定的调节作用。     

生长抑素在齐口裂腹鱼消化道和脑中的定位

采用链霉亲合素一生物素过氧化物酶复合物免疫组化法研究生长抑素（Somatostatin,Som）在齐口裂腹鱼（Schizothorax prenanti）脑和消化道中的定位。在消化道中,口咽腔和食道为阴性反应;肠道有Som强阳性细胞,其中前肠密度最高,后肠最低。这些Som阳性细胞多分布于粘膜上皮,形态多样。肠道巨噬细胞呈Som强阳性反应。Som广泛分布于各脑区的神经元或神经纤维中,呈弱或强阳性反应,其中下丘脑下叶乳头体内Som阳性细胞密度最高,背嗅核、侧嗅核、原始纹体、视前核、内嗅沟旁、缰核下区、前丘脑核、前圆核、下丘脑中叶、下丘脑下叶、中脑室侧次之;小脑分子层和延脑VI、V核较少。端极和脑上腺有阳性神经纤维。这说明Som在肠道中的分布与该鱼食性、消化道结构和功能密切相关;Som在下丘脑中的分布特点为鱼类GH调控提供了形态学证据;Som在脑中广泛分布,提示可能作为一种神经递质或调质,发挥更为广泛的生理功能。

应用免疫组织化学方法检测了Bax蛋白、TGF-β(TGF-β2、TGF-β3)和Ghrelin在饥饿后长耳鸮(Asio otus)胃及小肠中的表达,利用体视学方法对其表达强度进行半定量分析。结果表明,胃及小肠呈Bax、TGF-β2、TGF-β3和Ghrelin免疫反应阳性。Bax免疫反应阳性物质主要分布在胃黏膜、肠黏膜、肠腺的单层柱状上皮细胞,腺胃深腺单层立方上皮细胞及胃黏膜固有层;TGF-β2、TGF-β3免疫反应阳性物质主要分布在胃黏膜、肠黏膜及肠腺的单层柱状上皮细胞,腺胃深腺单层立方上皮细胞及肠黏膜固有层;Ghrelin免疫反应阳性细胞分布在腺胃深腺,十二指肠、空肠、回肠的黏膜、肠腺的单层柱状上皮细胞及黏膜固有层。Bax蛋白阳性表达部位的面密度值在腺胃有最大值,从腺胃到十二指肠面密度值下降,十二指肠到回肠逐渐上升;TGF-β2和TGF-β3阳性表达部位的面密度值在十二指肠达到峰值,TGF-β2从十二指肠到回肠阳性表达部位的面密度值呈递减趋势,TGF-β3从腺胃到十二指肠面密度值逐渐增大,之后下降,到回肠回升;Ghrelin阳性表达部位的面密度值从腺胃到回肠逐渐减小。Bax、TGF-β2、TGF-β3及Ghrelin在饥饿后长耳鸮胃和小肠各段均有不同程度的表达,它们可能参与长耳鸮胃肠功能的调节。     

神经肽Y、钙基因相关肽和P物质在甲状腺中的分布及其在甲亢状态下的变化(英文)

以往的研究表明,甲状腺中分布有肽能神经,包括神经肽Y(NPY)能神经、P物质(SP)能神经和脑肠肽(VIP)能神经.这些神经纤维的终末与血管和甲状腺的滤泡接触.一般认为,甲状腺的功能活动主要受下丘脑-垂体-甲状腺轴的调节,有关神经肽的调节,尤其是在甲亢状态下的调节尚不清楚.本研究以SD大鼠为实验动物,通过T4注射建立甲亢动物模型.使用免疫组化技术对NPY、CGRP和SP 在实验与对照动物的分布进行形态学研究,使用放射免疫测定技术对模型动物与对照动物甲状腺中的NPY、CGRP和SP进行定量研究.免疫组化技术发现NPY阳性神经纤维密集环绕小血管,其末端与血管内皮紧密联系,一些NPY阳性神经走行于滤泡间的结缔组织中,其末端与滤泡上皮接触;有SP阳性神经纤维走行于滤泡间的结缔组织中,其末端与滤泡上皮接触;CGRP阳性细胞分布于滤泡间的结缔组织中,或滤泡上皮细胞之间.放射免疫测定表明甲亢大鼠NPY、SP水平高于对照大鼠,CGRP水平低于对照大鼠.结果表明,在甲亢状态下,机体通过血管收缩介质NPY、SP的增多与血管舒张介质CGRP的减少,控制甲状腺素进入血液循环,这是机体在病理过程中的自稳机制之一.

扬子鳄小肠壁神经丛内含AChE及SOM神经元的组织化学和免疫组织化学观察

本实验分别应用显示乙酰胆碱酯酶（ＡＣｈＥ）和生长抑素（ＳＯＭ）的组织化学和免疫组织化学方法,对扬子鳄小肠神经丛进行了研究。结果显示;ＡＣｈＥ阳性神经纤维广泛分布于肠壁神经丛内;粘膜下丛和肌间丛可见到许多ＡＣｈＥ阳性神经元,胞体大小不等形态不一。生长抑素免疫反应（ＳＯＭ－ＩＲ）纤维主要分布在肌间神经丛,ＳＯＭ－ＩＲ纤维大体呈两种类型：即较多的膨体状神经纤维和少量的细长神经纤维。粘膜下丛和肌间丛可见ＳＯＭ－ＩＲ阳性神经元,有时尚可见突起与周围神经纤维联系。提示低等脊柱动物两栖爬行类一扬子鳄内脏已存在比较完善的神经调节。     

猕猴发育过程中肠肝组织生长抑素及其受体表达演变规律

探讨在猕猴发育过程中生长抑素(somatostatin,SST)及其受体在肠肝组织的演变规律。通过手术途径获得胚胎6月、新生2 d、新生45 d和成年猕猴的回肠、肝脏、门静脉和外周血等标本。应用放射免疫分析法测定各标本中的SST含量; 通过免疫组化方法观察SST在肠、肝组织内的分布;利用原位杂交检测SST受体2(somatostatin receptor 2,SSTR2)的表达。结果显示:(1)胚胎6月的猕猴,小肠内SST含量为(27．3±16．6)ng／mg蛋白;黏膜隐窝处SST呈弱阳性染色,肌层 SST染色阴性。在发育过程中,小肠内SST含量逐渐增加,成年期时达最高水平(120．1±35．3)ng／mg蛋白,较胚胎6月显著增加(P<0．01)。(2)成年小肠黏膜隐窝处及肌间神经丛SST呈强阳性染色。(3)胚胎6月,小肠粘膜上皮可见大量SSTR2 表达,成年时SSTR2表达下调,且主要定位于腺上皮隐窝处;胚胎及新生期肌层SSTR2染色阴性,成年时小肠肌间神经丛则可见阳性SSTR2染色。(4)肝脏在发育过程中SST及SSTR2含量逐渐降低;发育的各个时期,小肠组织的SST含量均明显高于肝脏组织含量,门静脉SST水平也始终高于外周血。总之,位于小肠黏膜隐窝处的SST和SSTR2随着发育逐渐增加,来自肠道的SST进入门静脉后迅速被降解。SST阳性的肠肌间神经丛仅在发育成熟后才出现。     

中华竹鼠胃肠道内分泌细胞分布型的研究

本文用免疫组织化学方法（ＰＡＰ法）对１０种ＧＩＥＣ在中华竹鼠（Ｒｈｉｚｏｍｙｓｓｉｎｅｎｓｉｓ）１５个胃肠段中的分布作了观察和统计分析,以探讨中华竹鼠胃肠内分泌细胞与其特殊食性的适应关系．结果表明：中华竹鼠胃肠中可能至少有７种免疫反应活性内分泌细胞。与大熊猫相比,尽管都以竹类为主食,但由于取食行为不同,它们ＧＩＥＣ的分布型不尽相同．这些结果从一定程度上表明ＧＩＥＣ的分布不仅与食物组成相关。也可能与取食行为有关。

Apelin cells in the rat stomach

Apelin is a recently discovered peptide that is the endogenous ligand for the APJ receptor. Apelin is produced in the central nervous system, heart, lung, mammary gland and gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The aim of this study was to identify by immunohistochemistry (IHC) cell types in the rat stomach that produce apelin peptide. IHC revealed abundant apelin-positive cells, primarily in the neck and upper base regions of the gastric glands in the mucosal epithelium. Apelin is not detected in the muscle layer. Apelin-positive cells were identified as mucous neck, parietal cells, and chief cells. Apelin is also identified in gastric epithelial cells that produce chromogranin A (CGA), a marker of enteroendocrine cells. The findings that apelin is expressed in gastric exocrine and endocrine cells agrees with and extends other data showing that apelin peptide is measurable in the gut lumen and in the systemic circulation by immunoassay.     

Histochemical distribution of four types of enzymes and mucous cells in the gastrointestinal tract of reared half‐smooth tongue sole Cynoglossus semilaevis

The histochemical distribution of acid phosphatase (ACP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), non‐specific esterase (NSE), peroxidase (POD) and mucous‐cell types was evaluated in the gastrointestinal tract of the half‐smooth tongue sole Cynoglossus semilaevis. The enzymes were detected in the entire stretch of the gastrointestinal tract. ACP activity was found in the supranuclear region of enterocytes and the lamina propria of the intestine, as well as the cytoplasm of epithelial cells of the stomach. The staining intensity of ACP in the anterior and posterior intestines was stronger than in the stomach. ALP activity was detected in the striated border of enterocytes and muscularis of the whole intestine, lamina propria and supranuclear cytoplasm of the enterocytes in the anterior intestine, as well as in the blood vessels of the stomach. The staining intensity for ALP in the anterior intestine was stronger than in the posterior segment and the latter was stronger than in the stomach. NSE activity was detected in the cytoplasm of the epithelial cells in the entire gastrointestinal tract, with the anterior intestine showing stronger intensity than the stomach. POD activity was located in the blood cells of the lamina propria of the gastrointestinal tract and the levels in the stomach were similar to the anterior and posterior intestines. Alcian blue (pH 2·5) periodic acid Schiff (AB‐PAS) histochemical results revealed three types of mucous cells in the gastrointestinal tract. Type I cells (PAS+AB‐) were observed among the gastric mucosa columnar cells in the stomach and enterocytes in the basal region of the villi and in the middle and top regions of the intestinal villi. Type II cells (PAS‐AB+) and type III cells (PAS+AB+) were not detected in the stomach but were distributed ubiquitously among enterocytes in the middle and top regions of the intestinal villi.     

感染肺炎链球菌猕猴消化系统白细胞介素6 的表达观察

检测猕猴自发性感染肺炎链球菌后,白细胞介素6 在胃肠道以及肝脏、食管的表达变化,探讨肺炎链球菌的发病机制以及自发性肺炎链球菌性肺炎的病理特点。采用常规H. E.染色观察消化系统病理组织学变化,采用免疫组织化学和原位杂交方法检测白细胞介素6 在肝脏、食管、空肠、盲肠和胃组织的表达变化。各组织表现出典型的炎症病变,肝组织和肠腺均可见大面积坏死,在空肠、盲肠和肝脏中有明显的广泛性出血和充血现象;肠道有大量炎性细胞浸润。和健康组比较,白细胞介素6 在感染组的胃肠道以及肝脏、食管中的表达均呈现升高趋势,感染组的IL-6 阳性细胞总面积比正常组有显著性升高
(P < 0.05)。在胃肠道以及食管的表达主要集中在粘膜层,在肝脏相对集中分布于血管周围。阳性细胞包括了部分腺体细胞、肝细胞、内皮细胞、未角化
上皮细胞以及淋巴细胞。白细胞介素6 作为一种炎症细胞因子在肺炎链球菌感染中发挥了一定的作用,可能参与了肺炎的病理过程并对机体清除肺炎链球菌有一定促进作用。     

Immunocytochemical localization of prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase in the bovine intestine

The localization of prostaglandin (PG) endoperoxide synthase in bovine intestine was examined immunocytochemically with polyclonal antibody raised against PG endoperoxide synthase purified from bovine seminal glands. The most intense positive staining reaction for the enzyme was present in mast cells. Mast cells were found to be widely distributed in the intestinal wall, and were particularly numerous in the lamina propria. Most of the mast cells in the lamina propria of the intestinal villi were elongated and oriented with their long axis parallel to the plane of the absorptive epithelium. In whole mount preparations of jejunal villi, mast cells were seen to form a two-dimensional network in the lamina propria. In addition to mast cells, smooth muscle cells of the inner circular muscle layer and muscularis mucosae, nerve cells and fibers, endothelial cells of arterioles, and serosal epithelial cells also showed faint to moderate staining for the enzyme. These results suggested that mast cells are the major source of PGs in the bovine intestinal wall. The characteristic arrangement of mast cells in the intestinal villi may be related to their functions in this portion of the bovine intestine.     

The Microbial Community in the Feces of the Giant Panda (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Ailuropoda melanoleuca</Emphasis>) as Determined by PCR-TGGE Profiling and Clone Library Analysis

Despite having a typical carnivorous digestive tract, the giant panda has a diet consisting exclusively of bamboo, a low-efficiency food source. Given this paradox, we sought to investigate if the giant panda digestive tract is inhabited by organisms indicative of high cellulose diet or their gastrointestinal tract anatomy. The diversity and dynamics of the predominant bacteria in the fecal flora of two adult (male and female) and one young (male) giant panda reared in two different zoos over a 2-year period was studied using 16S rDNA-based approaches. The temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE) profiles of the 16S rDNA V3 region of the three individuals were highly similar. The structure of their fecal flora remained relatively stable over the 2-year period. Both the most predominant band in TGGE patterns shared by the three pandas and the biggest operational taxonomic unit (OTU) in the clone library were phylogenetically related to Escherichia coli. Gram-negative, facultative bacteria constituted almost 60% of the whole community in the clone library. All the OTUs were related to previously described phylotypes known to reside in the intestine or rumen. The results of our study indicate that the predominant bacterial populations in the intestine of the three pandas were markedly different from that of herbivores. The unbalanced intestinal community structure may play a role in the inefficient digestion of bamboo by the giant pandas.     

大熊猫粪便乳酸菌的分离鉴定

大熊猫作为国家保护动物,其健康问题备受瞩目。为了维护大熊猫的肠道健康,本研究从大熊猫肠道内分离出适宜于大熊猫肠道环境的乳酸菌菌株,有望将其制成熊猫肠道微生物制剂,从而改善大熊猫肠道菌群环境。从雅安市宝兴县蜂桶寨自然保护区选取圈养与野生大熊猫的粪便,通过体外培养分离出9个菌株。分离菌株经过革兰氏染色镜检、过氧化氢产气、菌落形态观察等方法与技术初步鉴定为乳酸菌。对这9株乳酸菌进行耐酸试验、耐胆盐试验、抑菌能力试验和产酸能力等测试,筛选出了3个适应性较强,有望制成调节大熊猫肠道内环境平衡作用的微生态菌剂的菌株。16S rRNA基因序列分析表明:分离菌株J1、J2和J4分别为融合魏斯氏菌（Weissella confusa）,海氏肠球菌（Enterococcus heynei）和非解乳糖链球菌（Streptococcus alactolyticus）,有望被应用于大熊猫肠道微生态制剂的研究。     

大鳞副泥鳅肠道黏液细胞及消化酶活性分布特征研究

采用阿利新兰-碘酸雪夫氏反应(AB-PAS)染色法及酶学方法研究了大鳞副泥鳅成熟个体肠道各段黏液细胞分布及消化酶活性。结果表明, 大鳞副泥鳅肠道黏液细胞分为Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ和Ⅳ 4种类型。前肠至后肠, 黏液细胞数量逐渐减少。前肠主要分布Ⅲ和Ⅳ混合型黏液细胞, 后肠则以Ⅱ和Ⅳ型酸性黏液细胞为主。肠道胰蛋白酶活性显著高于淀粉酶和脂肪酶。且后肠消化酶活性显著低于前肠和中肠。根据黏液细胞及消化酶活性分布特点, 表明大鳞副泥鳅属于杂食性鱼类, 前肠为其主要的消化吸收场所, 后肠中性黏液细胞的数量较少以及消化酶活性较低, 表明其对食物的消化吸收功能较弱, 与其为辅助呼吸功能的特点相关。     

Occurrence and distribution of neuropeptide-Y-immunoreactive nerves in the respiratory tract and middle ear

Summary Nerve fibres displaying neuropeptide-Y (NPY) immunoreactivity are abundantly distributed in the respiratory tract of cats, guinea-pigs, rats and mice. Fine beaded NPY fibres were seen in whole-mount spreads of the middle-ear mucosa. In the nasal mucosa and in the wall of the Eustachian tube NPY fibres were numerous around arteries and arterioles but sparse in the vicinity of veins; single fibres were found close to the acini of seromucous glands. In the tracheobronchial wall NPY fibres occurred in the proximity of blood vessels, in the subepithelial layer and in the smooth muscle. Surgical and chemical (6-hydroxydopamine treatment) sympathectomy resulted in disappearance of adrenergic and NPY-containing nerve fibres in the nasal mucosa. Sequential staining with antibodies against dopamine--hydroxylase (DBH) and NPY revealed that DBH and NPY occur in the same perivascular nerve fibres in the nasal mucosa. The distribution of NPY fibres in the respiratory tract suggests multiple functions of NPY, such as regulation of local blood flow, glandular secretion and smooth muscle activity.
