When the potent inhibitor of nitric oxide (NO) synthesis NG-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA) was incorporated into the diet, hypertension was induced and sustained due to the effects of the long-term inhibition of endothelium-dependent relaxing factor (EDRF)/NO. The effects of L-NNA on normotensive rats of four strains (Donryu, Sprague-Dawley (SD), Wistar, and Wistar-Kyoto (WKY)) were compared relative to control rats. L-NNA administration caused a sharp initial increase in systolic blood pressure (SBP) at 2 weeks in all animals, and this was followed by a gradual and steady increase until 4 weeks. At the end of the experiments (5 weeks), the mean SBP of Donryu and SD rats was decreased. The maximum blood pressure of Donryu and Wistar rats during the experiments exceeded 200 mmHg, but that of SD and WKY rats was below 200 mmHg. Body weight loss and death were observed only in L-NNA-fed Donryu rats. Pathological changes in the kidneys and the morbidity rates for the lesions were determined, and indicated that the Donryu L-NNA group was 100% positive. These results suggest that the Donryu strain is more sensitive to L-NNA than the other strains. That dietary L-NNA-induced hypertension in normotensive rats of the four strains provides a new artificially-induced hypertensive model in which vasoconstriction occurs mainly due to EDRF deficiency. 相似文献

The density of mucus glycoprotein compared to that of the corpus, antrum and duodenum was; 1.52, 1.49 and 1.57 g/ml respectively. Carbohydrate composition of gastrointestinal mucus glycoprotein consisted of N-acetylgalactosamine, N-acetylglucosamine, galactose, fucose and sialic acid. Ratios of carbohydrate composition among corpus, antral and duodenal mucus glycoproteins differed. The average length of an oligosaccharide was found to be about 12-13, 14 and 10 sugars in the corpus, antrum and duodenum, respectively. In the corpus, the amino acid content was found to have the following quantitative order: Thr greater than Ser greater than Glx = Pro; in the antrum: Thr greater than Ser greater than Glx; and in the duodenum: Thr greater than Ser greater than Pro. Corpus, antral and duodenal mucus glycoproteins have the blood-group A antigen; antral mucus glycoprotein in particular exhibited strong blood-group A activity. 相似文献

Experiments with restriction endonucleases showed that Sprague-Dawley strain rats have two types of mitochondrial DNAs (mtDNAs), named α- and β-types, which differ in primary structure. Individual rats have only one type. Individuals of other strains, such as Wistar, Fischer, and Donryu, also all have one of these types of mtDNA. Thus irrespective of their strain, all rats can be classified into one of two groups according to the type of their mtDNA. 相似文献

Genetic control of blood pressure in the SHR strain was studied by three separate experiments which consist of cross analysis between the SHR and Donryu, two-way selecton for high and low blood pressure levels, and successive backcrosses to the parental strains. The results obtained were as follows. 1. The data from genetic crosses between the SHR and Donryu showed the phenotype segregation ratio of 1:1 at the backcross and 1:2:1 at the F2 generation. 2. Two-way selection for high and low blood pressure levels was performed from the F2 generation onward. The separation between the two lines occurred immediately after the first selection. Thereafter, the difference increased gradually with generation. The blood pressure level at the seventh generation of selection became approximately equal to those of the parental strains. 3. Two types of the successive backcross were performed from the F1 hybrids by mating the males showing the highest blood pressure level to Donryu females and the females showing the lowest blood pressure level to SHR males on the other. Bimodality was observed in the distribution of blood pressure levels at each generation. Their phenotypic segregation ratios were accordant with 1:1 on the whole. At the intercross generation during successive backcrosses, a trimodal distribution was observed. 4. These results confirmed that the hypertensive trait of the SHR is regulated by a single major gene and other several genes with minor effect. A gene symbol ht was proposed for this major gene. Concurrently, a congenic strain having the ht gene on the genetic background of the Donryu was developed by the successive backcross system. 相似文献

The allelic frequencies at 6 isozyme loci (Es-1, Es-2, Es-3, Es-4, Es-Si and Amy-1) were examined in 4 outbred Wistar strains and additionally 2 SD strains as controls. From the allelic frequencies, the averages of the heterozygosities in individual strains and the geometric genetic distances between every pair of all possible strain combinations were calculated. The averages of the heterozygosities in 2 SD strains were both intermediate (around 0.2) and the genetic distance between them was rather short. But among the Wistar strains, the averages of the heterozygosities were highly variable and the genetic relationships among them were very variable in their genetic distances. From these results, it was suggested that the outbred Wistar strains were different each other in their genetic constitutions and that no suggestion was obtained to descriminate genetically the Wistar strains from the SD strains. 相似文献

Gastric lesions induced by aspirin increased the ulcer index and incidence with prolongation of fasting time. Aspirin decreased gastric mucus glycoprotein in both the corpus and antrum. However, the rate of decrease in mucus glycoprotein induced by aspirin differed according to feeding habits and the gastric region. Qualitative change in corpus mucus glycoprotein was induced by aspirin. 相似文献

Biosynthetic activity of gastrin mucus glycoprotein in rats after fasting for 24 and 72 hr was studied by the organ culture technique. Fasting produced a slight reduction in gastric mucus glycoprotein biosynthesis in the corpus and antrum (about 70-90% of fed rats). Sulfation of gastric mucus glycoprotein was restrained in the corpus (18% in control for 72 hr). 相似文献

Radiolabelled mucus glycoprotein was obtained from tissue and a culture medium each of the corpus and antrum of rat stomach incubated with [35S]sulphate in vitro. Gel-filtration analysis of oligosaccharides liberated by alkaline-borohydride treatment from glycoproteins indicated that 35S-labelled oligosaccharides from the corpus vary considerably with respect to chain length whereas those from antral mucus glycoprotein are composed of small oligosaccharides. Examination of the reduced radiolabelled products obtained by HNO2 cleavage of the hydrazine-treated oligosaccharides indicated sulphate esters of N-acetylglucosamine to be present at three locations on a carbohydrate unit: [35S]sulphated monosaccharide (2,5-anhydromannitol 6-sulphate), [35S]sulphated disaccharide [galactosyl(beta 1-4)-2,5-anhydromannitol 6-sulphate] and [35S]sulphated trisaccharide [fucosyl(alpha 1-2)-galactosyl(beta 1-4)-2,5-anhydromannitol 6-sulphate]. Sulphated disaccharide and trisaccharide, possibly originating from the N-acetyl-lactosamine and fucosyl-N-acetyl-lactosamine sequences respectively, were detected in the corpus, especially as large oligosaccharides, but were present in the antrum in only very small amounts. The sulphated monosaccharide, however, most probably originating from 6-sulphated N-acetylglucosamine residues at non-reducing termini, was present in all oligosaccharide fractions in both the corpus and antrum. 相似文献

Telomerase activity is known to be implicated both in cell immortalization and carcinogenesis. Telomerase activity has not been detected in most human somatic tissues. However, we previously confirmed that the activity is present both in methylazoxymethanol acetate-induced rat colonic adenocarcinoma and non-treated colonic mucosa, presumably indicating the tissue-specific activity of the enzyme in rats. To determine the standard activity of rat telomerase in various organs in relation to differences in sex, age and strain, we examined the activity by using the telomeric repeat amplification protocol (TRAP) assay. The testis, liver, and colon mucosa showed the activity. The brain had very low or negative activity in 5-week-old male rats of the F344, SD, Wistar, Donryu or ACI strains. Age (5-week-old and 9-month-old) or sex difference for the activity was not apparent in rats of these strains. In general, telomerase activity in the fetal brain, liver and kidney was stronger than in the adult organ. The telomerase activity of each organ was different from that of human. This difference may indicate that the rat has a specific mechanism for maintaining the telomeric repeats of the chromosome even in somatic tissues. The basic information resulting from this study may be useful for the study of the role of telomerase in tumorigenesis in animal experiment models. 相似文献

Rats of the Donryu, Wistar, Fischer, and Sprague-Dawley strains were examined for the effects of choline deficiency on liver lipids, serum lipids, and serum ornithine carbamoyltransferase. The liver total lipid, triacylglycerol, cholesterol and phospholipid contents in the choline-deficient rats were significantly higher than those in choline-sufficient rats. The contents of total lipids and phospholipids in the liver of the Wistar and Fischer rats fed on a choline-deficient diet were significantly higher than those of the Donryu and Sprague-Dawley rats. The levels of triacylglycerol, cholesterol and phospholipids in the serum were significantly decreased by feeding with the choline-deficient diet. The serum ornithine carbamoyltransferase activity was increased in the Wistar and Fischer strains by feeding with the choline-deficient diet. The Wistar and Fischer strains were consequently the most sensitive to both lipid accumulation and liver lesions induced by the choline deficiency. 相似文献

In animal models and human trials, Lactobacillus gasseri OLL2716 (LG21) strain suppressed Helicobacter pylori colonization in the stomach. The aim of the present study was to clarify whether orally administered LG21 strain can enter the gastric mucus layer. Biopsy samples were taken from the gastric antrum and corpus of two healthy volunteers (H. pylori infected and non-infected) who drank yogurt supplemented with LG21 strains. DNA of LG21 and H. pylori in the mucus layer was detected using the laser-assisted microdissection and non-contact pressure catapulting (LMPC) method and the semi-nested PCR method with primer sets of RNA helicases of superfamily II gene-Insertion sequence for LG21 strain and those of ureA gene for H. pylori. In the volunteer with H. pylori infection, DNA fragments of LG21- and H. pylori-specific regions from both antrum and corpus were amplified, whereas in a non-infected volunteer, only the LG21 DNA from the antrum was amplified. The present study demonstrated that LG21 strains administered through a yogurt drink can enter into the gastric mucus layer. Our novel method may be useful in studying gastric probiotics for H. pylori infection. 相似文献

Factors affecting the efficiency of producing transgenic rats by intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)-mediated DNA transfer were investigated. Epididymal spermatozoa from Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were sonicated and/or frozen-thawed for cutting the tail and membrane disruption. The sperm heads were exposed for 1 min to different concentrations (0.02-2.5 microg/ml) of 3.0 kb enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) DNA solution, and then microinjected into the denuded F1 hybrid (Donryu x LEW) rat oocytes. The optimal concentration of EGFP DNA solution was 0.1 microg/ml, as determined by the in vitro developmental competence into morulae/blastocysts of the ICSI oocytes and the EGFP expression of the resultant embryos. The efficiency of producing transgenic rat offspring (per transferred zygote) was 2.8%, 1.6%, and 3.3% in the oocytes injected with sonicated, frozen-thawed, and sonicated + frozen-thawed sperm heads, respectively. The founder transgenic rats carrying the EGFP gene transmitted their transgenes to their progeny according to the Mendelian fashion, suggesting the stable incorporation of the transgenes into the rat genomes. Four rat strains (F344, LEW, Donryu, and SD) were compared for their suitability as sperm/oocyte donors for the production of transgenic rats by ICSI with sonicated, frozen-thawed and solution of EGFP DNA-exposed sperm heads. The efficiency of producing transgenic rats in the SD strain (8.2%) was higher than that in the LEW strain (0.9%), while those in the F344 and Donryu strains (4.3%-4.4%) were intermediate. One plasmid DNA (Fyn, 5.0 kb) and two BAC DNA (BAC/Fyn, 208 kb; Svet1/IRES-Cre, 186 kb) were successfully introduced into the SD rat genomes via ICSI, with the producing efficiencies of 2.8%, 0.9%, and 2.4%, respectively. 相似文献

The role of covalently bound fatty acids in the degradation of human gastric mucus glycoprotein 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The undegraded high-molecular-weight glycoprotein of human gastric mucus has been isolated free of noncovalently bound proteins and lipids, as judged by gel filtration, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, cesium chloride density gradient centrifugation, and lipid analysis. Mild alkaline methanolysis of the thoroughly delipidated glycoprotein revealed that, on the average, the native undegraded glycoprotein contains 2.9 mol of acyl linked fatty acids/mg glycoprotein. The low-molecular-weight glycoprotein subunits, obtained after pepsin digestion, contain 2 nmol of acyl linked fatty acids/mg glycopeptide. The highest content of covalently bound fatty acids was found in the fraction of glycoprotein which remained undegraded after pepsin digestion. On the average, 10.2 mol of fatty acids/mg was substituted on this pepsin-resistant glycoprotein. After deacylation with hydroxylamine, the undegraded pepsin-resistant glycoprotein became susceptible to proteolytic cleavage. The obtained results suggest that fatty acids covalently bound to gastric mucus glycoprotein are involved in the regulation of proteolytic digestion of mucus glycoprotein in the stomach. 相似文献

A mucus glycoprotein of the duodenal gland is characterized. The glycoprotein was isolated from a water-soluble homogenate fraction of the submucosal tissue of the most proximal part of the small intestine, containing the duodenal gland, and was purified from contaminating protein by two sequential equilibrium-centrifugation steps in CsCl density gradients. Structural analysis of the purified glycoprotein showed two regions in the protein core: one part characterized by the presence of essentially all of the cysteine residues and another by the presence of most of the serine and threonine. Carbohydrate was found linked to the latter part. Rat (H. L. Smits, P. J. M. van Kerkhof, and M. F. Kramer (1982) Biochem. J. 203, 779-785.) and human duodenal gland mucus glycoprotein show homology in chemical composition. Both glycoproteins have a relatively high protein content and contain little sulfate and no neuraminic acid. In man the mucus glycoprotein, however, has a higher content of serine plus threonine, a lower content of N-acetylglucosamine, a slightly higher content of fucose, and a lower molar ratio of N-acetylgalactosamine relative to serine plus threonine. 相似文献

A carcinogen-resistant inbred strain DRH/Sea has been developed from the Crj:Donryu strain. The rats had a very low incidence of liver tumors when they were fed diets containing a hepatocarcinogen such as 3'-methyl-4-dimethylamino-azobenzene (3'-Me-DAB). Despite using 3'-Me-DAB during the stage of selection, the DRH/Sea rats developed normally, reproduced and did not have any spontaneous tumor in the lung, liver or uterus at over 1 year of age. Although their growth curves were similar to the Crj:Donryu rats, the progression of polyploidization in the liver was significantly delayed when compared with Crj:Donryu rats. Mitogenic changes that occurred in the liver caused by either 3'-Me-DAB or lead nitrate were less significant in the DRH rats than in Crj:Donryu rats. Furthermore, the growth rate of cultured fibroblasts derived from the DRH rats was slower than that of Crj:Donryu rats. These results, together with our previous results, suggest that slow growth potential is present under certain conditions in DRH rats. These findings may explain partly the meaning of the different susceptibility to hepatocarcinogens. 相似文献

The differences between rat strains in superovulation response, in vitro and in vivo development of preimplantation embryos and overall transgenic efficiency was studied. The protocols for induction of superovulation
using single injections of pregnant mare’s serum gonadotropin (PMSG) or minipumps with follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)
were compared in Lewis (LEW), Wistar-Kyoto (WKY), and stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP) or Sprague–Dawley
(SD) and Wistar rats as representative inbred or outbred strains, respectively. The percentage of mated animals with positive
superovulatory response was similar in all strains (60.0–100%). The mean number of ova per donor was not dependent on the
kind of hormonal treatment used within each rat strain. In general, females from outbred SD and Wistar rats were more responsive
to hormonal treatments than animals from inbred rat strains. In addition, SD female rats produced a significantly higher number
of embryos per female in response to PMSG-treatment compared to all other strains. Between the inbred strains, SHRSP was the
most effective for superovulation. In vitro development of intact zygotes to the blastocyst stage was not different between SD, Wistar and SHRSP rats. In contrast, in vitro development of WKY zygotes was significantly less efficient than in other strains. However, 2-cell stage embryos in vivo produced from SD, SD × Wistar and WKY animals showed no difference in competence to develop to blastocyst stage in vitro. The proportion of offspring developing after oviduct transfer of intact zygotes was similar in all strains (44.0–56.4%)
with the exception of WKY rats (35.9%). We also compared the survival rate after injection, ability of manipulated zygotes
to develop to term and overall transgenic efficiency in various rat strains. SD and SHRSP zygotes survived after microinjection
better than the WKY and Lewis zygotes. No differences were found in the efficiency of transgene integration per newborn in
different strains ranging from 5.7 to 16.7%. The results of this study demonstrate that different rat strains have varying
responses to superovulation, sensitivity to microinjection, capability to develop in vitro until blastocyst stage or in vivo to term after transfer to foster mothers. Despite these differences all studied strains can be used for efficient transgenic
rat production. 相似文献

Two types of rat gastric mucus glycoprotein subunits 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Gastric mucus glycoproteins were extracted with 2% Triton X-100 from rat gastric corpus and antrum and purified by CsCl equilibrium centrifugation. Corpus mucus glycoproteins were degraded into what appeared to be two "subunits" (Mw 4.4 x 10(5) and 6 x 10(6)) by the reduction of disulfide bonds. Papain digestion of the latter produced glycopeptides with a molecular weight of approximately 4.4 x 10(5). This type of subunit had carbohydrate chains with about 9 sugars attached to every 2 amino acid residues. Papain digestion of the former type of subunit revealed no change in the elution profile on Bio-Gel A-15m. This type of subunit had carbohydrate chains with 17-19 sugars attached to every 3 amino acid residues. The subunit of antral mucus glycoproteins was essentially the same as the former type of corpus subunits in molecular weight (Mw 4.4 x 10(5)) and average oligosaccharide chain length. These results suggest that there are two distinct types of mucus glycoprotein subunits in rat stomach. 相似文献

Human parathyroid hormone (hPTH 1-34) stimulates an anabolic response in human and animal skeletons; however, it is unclear if the effect is strain dependent. To determine if the anabolic response to hPTH (1-34) was dependent upon strain in rats we used 2 outbred strains (Sprague Dawley, Wistar), 2 inbred strains (Fischer 344, Wistar spontaneously hypertensive:SHR), and 2 mutant strains (Zucker obese, Zucker lean) of rats. Male rats, 5 weeks of age, from each strain were treated subcutaneously with 80 microg/kg body weight hPTH (1-34) or vehicle for 12 days. The response to PTH was similar in all strains whereby PTH exerted an anabolic effect on femoral bone mass and cancellous bone histology that was independent of strain differences. Histomorphometric indices of bone volume, mineralized surface and bone formation in lumbar vertebrae increased in all PTH-treated rats. Additionally, femur bone mineral content and bone mineral density measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), and ash weight increased in all PTH-treated rats. These increases occurred regardless of strain. In summary, PTH exerted comparable anabolic effects on bone mass, bone mineral density and bone formation in all rat models tested demonstrating that the skeletal responsiveness to PTH was not dependent upon strain. 相似文献

1. The effect of pepsin on the loss of mucus glycoprotein from the gastric epithelial mucus layer was studied in the rat. 2. Pepsin was instilled into the gastric lumen, and luminal contents were subsequently assayed. 3. Glycoprotein loss increased with luminal pepsin, up to a concentration of 1 mg pepsin/ml. 4. Luminal glycoprotein had a molecular size distribution intermediate between subunit, and native mucus glycoprotein of the epithelial mucus layer. 5. Incubation of gastric epithelial scrapings with pepsin demonstrated that insoluble, native mucus glycoprotein was rapidly degraded to soluble glycoprotein of similar molecular size distribution to that found in vivo in the lumen. 相似文献
