目的:探讨模拟海拔6 000 m高原低氧环境对小鼠脾脏铁代谢的影响。 方法:将C57BL/6小鼠按体重随机分为常压常氧组(Nor)和低压低氧组(HH)。HH组小鼠放置于低压低氧动物实验舱内,模拟急性海拔6 000 m高原低氧环境,控制光照时间比大约12 h∶12 h。Nor组置于同等条件的常压常氧环境。HH组又分为低氧12 h组(HH-12 h)和3 d组(HH-3 d),对照组对应分为(Nor-12 h及Nor-3 d),每组9只小鼠。采用血常规检测、HE染色、组织铁染色、蛋白质免疫印迹(WB)、免疫组织化学(IHC)综合评价模拟高原低氧环境下小鼠脾脏铁代谢情况。 结果:与相同时间点Nor组相比:①HH-12 h组小鼠红细胞数(RBC)、血红蛋白量(HGB)、红细胞压积(HCT)均无明显变化。HH-3 d组RBC、HGB及HCT均显著增加( P<0.05),平均血红蛋白量(MCH)在HH-12 h和HH-3 d组均无显著变化。②与Nor-3 d相比,HH-3 d组小鼠脾脏明显增大,HE染色显示脾窦变窄,铁染色结果显示HH-3 d组脾脏红髓中铁含量明显增加。③WB结果显示,HH-3 d组低氧诱导因子1α(HIF-1α),转铁蛋白受体1(TfR1),铁输出蛋白(Fpn)表达均显著增加,而铁蛋白(Ft-L)的表达显著降低( P<0.05);IHC结果也与WB结果一致,高原低氧暴露3 d后脾脏红髓TfR1、Fpn表达和分布均明显增多,Ft-L表达分布明显减少。 结论:模拟海拔6 000 m高原低氧暴露3 d后小鼠脾脏截留处理RBC增多,脾索铁沉积,脾脏组织细胞内铁动员加速。高原低氧下脾脏铁代谢异常可能是引起高原低氧暴露下红细胞病理性增多甚至造成高原红细胞增多症的主要原因。 相似文献

本研究旨在探讨并比较慢性间歇性低压低氧(intermitten thypobaric hypoxia,IHH)和慢性连续性低压低氧(continuous hypobaric hypoxia,CHH)对大鼠血液动力学作用的影响。40只成年Sprague—Dawley大鼠随机分为5组:对照组(CON),28天IHH处理组(IHH28),42天IHH处理组(IHH42),28天CHH组(CHH28)和42天CHH组(CHH42)。IHH火鼠于低压氧舱分别接受28或42天模拟5000m海拔高度低氧(11.1%O2)处理、每天6h。CHH处理大鼠生活在低压氧舱环境中,除每天半小时常氧供食、供水和清洁外,其余时间均分别接受时程为28或42天的模拟5000m海拔高度低氧(11.1%O2)处理。每周定时测定大鼠体重。通过导管法测定基础常氧和急性低氧状态下的血液动力学,包括半均动脉压(meanartery blood pressure,MAP)、心率(heartrate,HR)、左审收缩峰压(1eft ventricular systolic pressure,LVSP)、正负左率最人压力变化速率(maximum change rate of left ventricular pressure,±LVdP/dtmax)。通过生物化学方法测定大鼠心肌超氧化物岐化酶活性和丙二醛含量。并分别测定全心、左心室和右心室重量。结果显示:(1)CHH42大鼠基础HR和MAP低于CON,IHH和CHH28大鼠(P〈0.05)。(2)IHH大鼠表现出明显的抗心肌缺氧/复氧损伤作用,表现为急性低氧状态下的HR、MAP、LVSP和+LVdP/dtmax,改变明显低于CON大鼠(P〈0.05);CHH大鼠表现出更为明显的抗急性低氧心脏保护作用,表现为急性低氧的HR、MAP、LVSP和±LVdP/dtmax;改变明显低于CON和IHH火鼠(P〈0.05),但出现复氧损伤作用,表现为复氧过程中血液动力学的恢复明显低于CON和IHH大鼠(P〈0.05)。(3)与CON大鼠相比较,IHH和CHH大鼠心肌抗氧化能力明显增强(P〈0.05,P〈0.01)。(4)与IHH和CON大鼠相比较,CHH大鼠表现明显的右心室肥厚(P〈0.01)。结果表明,IHH可诱导有效的心脏保护作用,而无明显的不良反应,因而具有潜在的实际应用价值。 相似文献

In order to evaluate the toxic effects of Sodium Cyanate (NaOCN), it was orally administered to growing mice at sea level (SL-CN) and to mice chronically exposed to intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH-CN). The effects on body weight, in-vivo O2 consumption (VO2) and the respiratory function of liver mitochondria were evaluated. At sea level, the animals on cyanate lost weight in contrast with the controls that gained weight. When exposed to IHH, the controls lost weight and the animals on cyanate regained weight. After 2 months observation the weights of the IHH-CN and IHH-C were similar. The VO2 after one month of treatment was similar in the SL-C and in the SL-CN but it was lower in the IHH-CN when compared with IHH-C. The substrate-stimulated respiration of isolated liver mitochondria (ST4) was not affected by NaOCN, but the ADP-stimulated respiration (ST3) was reduced. The ratio ST3/ST4 (RCR) was also lower. These changes were present in both SL and in IHH and were much larger after three months of treatment. The toxic effects of chronic administration of NaOCN are discussed. 相似文献

The prevalence of the Ixodes dammini spirochete (IDS) in white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) and white-footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus) was studied on the eastern end of Long Island, New York. Both species commonly occur in a variety of habitats, are preferred hosts of Ixodes dammini, and can harbor the spirochetes in the blood. Each animal was examined for spirochetemia, tick infestation, and IDS infection rates in the ticks that were removed from it. The results obtained suggest that in winter deer can be infected by questing adult I. dammini. Adult ticks apparently are infected through transtadial transmission of spirochetes from subadult ticks which had fed earlier in their life history on infected animals. Deer are important hosts of adult ticks and the IDS in winter and probably are a reservoir host in other seasons. The patterns of spirochete prevalence suggest that deer and mice are reservoirs of the organism and thus are fundamental to the ecology of Lyme disease on Long Island. 相似文献

The effect of exposure to hypoxia on macrophage activity, lymphocyte function and oxidative stress was investigated. Hypoxia
enhanced peritoneal macrophage activity as revealed by enhanced phagocytosis and free radical production. There was no significant
change in antibody titres to sheep red blood cells in either serum or spleen during hypoxia. However, there was a considerable
reduction in the delayed-type hypersensitivity response to sheep red blood cells, indicating the impairment of T-cell activity.
Hypoxia decreased the blood glutathione (reduced) level and increased plasma malondialdehyde by a factor of about 2. It is
therefore speculated that hypoxia imposes an oxidative stress leading to decreased T-cell acivity.

作为青藏高原最为关键的环境因子,低压低氧对高原非习服动物繁殖和生殖系统功能有不利影响。已有的研究表明,低氧环境会导致雄性生殖细胞凋亡、精子畸形率升高、精子质量下降,进而影响受精和早期胚胎发育,但目前缺乏低氧损伤精子功能的机理研究。小RNA (small RNA)是在转录后及翻译水平上调控基因表达的重要功能分子,不同类型的small RNA通过诱导基因沉默或调控翻译等方式参与调节精子发生。本研究通过低压氧舱模拟海拔5 000 m处理4周建立缺氧小鼠模型,发现低氧处理导致小鼠曲精细管中生精细胞排列紊乱,精子数量未发生显著变化但畸形率增加17.5倍(P <0.001)。通过small RNA测序发现,低氧组小鼠精子中的small RNA碱基偏好性与对照组一致,第一碱基对尿嘧啶(U)有很强的偏好性。低氧组小鼠精子中21 nt长度的small RNA比例显著减少4.4%(P <0.05)。低氧组小鼠精子中piRNA、tsRNA表达无差异,但miRNA表达上调21个,下调58个。对差异miRNAs靶基因与相同低氧处理小鼠睾丸组织差异基因比对,共比对到831个差异表达基因,其中上调miR... 相似文献

Previous studies have documented that repetitive exposure to intermittent hypoxia, such as that encountered in preparation to high-altitude ascent, influences breathing. However, the impact of intermittent hypoxia on airway smooth muscle has not been explored. Ascents to high altitude, in addition to hypoxia, expose individuals to cold air. The objective of the present study is to examine the effect of chronic intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (CIH) and CIH combined with cold exposure (CIHC) on tracheal smooth muscle responses to various contractile and relaxant agonists. Experiments were performed on tracheal rings harvested from adult guinea pigs exposed either to CIH or CIHC [14 days (6 h/day) at barometric pressure of 350 mmHg with and without cold exposure of 5 degrees C] or to room air (normoxia). CIH and CIHC attenuated maximum contractile responses to ACh compared with normoxia. The maximum contractile response to histamine decreased with CIH, whereas CIHC restored the response back to normoxia. Both CIH and CIHC attenuated maximum contractile responses to 5-HT. Altered contractile responses after CIH and CIHC were independent of epithelium. Isoproterenol-induced relaxation was not altered by CIH, whereas it was enhanced after CIHC, and these responses were independent of the epithelium. The data demonstrate that intermittent exposure to hypoxia profoundly influences contractile response of tracheal smooth muscle, and cold exposure can further modulate the response, implying the importance of cold at high altitude. 相似文献

Effects of chronic high-altitude hypoxia on the remodeling of right ventricle were examined in three age groups of rats: 2, 6, and 18 mo. The extent of right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy (RVH) showed an age-associated diminution. RV cell size and pericellular fibrosis showed a significant increase in the 2- and 6-mo-old exposed rats but not in the 18-mo-old exposed rats compared with control. A hyperplasic response was underscored in the three exposed age groups but appeared less pronounced in the 18-mo-old rats. A significant decrease in the transient outward potassium current (Ito) density was observed in RV cell only in the 2-mo-old exposed group compared with the control group. In the control group, there was a clear tendency for Ito density to decrease as a function of age. The sustained outward current density was modified neither by the hypoxia condition nor by the age. Neither the cytochrome c oxidase activity nor the heat shock protein 72 content in the RV was altered after hypoxic exposure regardless of age. The norepinephrine content in the RV was significantly decreased in each age group exposed to hypoxia when compared with their age-matched control group. Our findings indicate that the remodeling (at morphological and electrophysiological levels) induced by chronic hypoxia in the RV can be decreased by the natural aging process. 相似文献

Apart from acetyl-choline (Ach), adenosine-5′-trisphosphate (ATP) is thought to play a role in neuromuscular function, however little information is available on its cellular physiology. As such, effects of ATP and adenosine on contractility of mice diaphragmatic and skeletal muscles (m. extensor digitorum longa—MEDL) have been investigated in in vitro experiments. Application of carbacholine (CCh) in vitro in different concentrations led to pronounced muscle contractions, varying from 9.15 ± 4.76 to 513.13 ± 15.4 mg and from 44.65 ± 5.01 to 101.46 ± 9.11 mg for diaphragm and MEDL, respectively. Two hundred micromolars of CCh in both muscles caused the contraction with the 65% (diaphragm) to 75% (MEDL) of maximal contraction force—this concentration was thus used in further experiments. It was found that application of ATP (100 μM) increased the force of diaphragmatic contraction caused by CCh (200 μM) from 335.2 ± 51.4 mg ( n = 21) in controls to 426.5 ± 47.8 mg ( n = 10; P < 0.05), but decreased the contractions of MEDL of CCh from 76.6 ± 6.5 mg ( n = 26) in control to 40.2 ± 9.0 mg ( n = 8; P < 0.05). Application of adenosine (100 μM) had no effect on CCh-induced contractions of these muscles.Resting membrane potential (MP) measurements using sharp electrodes were done at 10, 20 and 30 min after the application of ATP and adenosine. Diaphragm showed depolarization from 75 ± 0.6 down to 63.2 ± 1.05, 57.2 ± 0.96 and 53.6 ± 1.1 mV after 10, 20 and 30 min of exposition, respectively (20 fibers from 4 muscles each, P < 0.05 in all three cases). Adenosine showed no effect on diaphragmatic MP. Both agents were ineffective in case of MEDL.The effects of ATP in both tissues were abolished by suramin (100 μM), a P2-receptor antagonist, and chelerythrin (50 μM), a specific protein-kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, but were not affected by 1 H-[1,2,4]-oxadiazolo-[4,3-α]-quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ, 1 μM), a guanylyl-cyclase inhibitor, or by adenosine-3,5-monophosphothioate (Rp-cAMP, 1 μM), a protein-kinase A (PKA) inhibitor.Besides the action on contractile activity, ATP (100 μM) led to a significant ( P < 0.001) depolarization of diaphragm muscle fibers from 74.5 ± 2.3 down to 64 ± 2.1, 58.2 ± 2.2 and 54.3 ± 2.4 mV after 10, 20 and 30 min of incubation, respectively. Incubation of MEDL with the same ATP concentration showed no significant change of MP.Denervation of the muscles for 28 days led to a decrease of CCh-induced contractions of diaphragm down to 171.1 ± 34.5 mg ( n = 11, P < 0.05), but increased the contractile force of MEDL up to 723.9 ± 82.3 mg ( n = 9, P < 0.01). Application of ATP elevated the contractility of denervated diaphragm caused by CCh up to normal values (311.1 ± 79.7 mg, n = 6, P > 0.05 versus control), but did not significantly affect of contractility of MEDL, which became 848.1 ± 62.7 mg ( n = 6).These results show that the effects of ATP on both diaphragmatic and skeletal muscles are mediated through P2Y receptors coupled to chelerytrin-sensitive protein-kinase C. 相似文献
