A study was made of the heat shock puff activity in salivary glands of Drosophila melanogaster larvae after 5 and 20 min treatments with anoxia (dipping into physiological solution), heat shock (37 degrees C), and simultaneously with both the agents. The simultaneous treatment with heat shock and anoxia, as well as treatment with anoxia only blocked the induction of heat shock puffs. They appeared 10-15 min after the treatment during recovery under aerobic conditions. There was a super-additive effect of the simultaneous treatment on the heat shock puffing duration. A specific regulation of the 93D locus was observed. The 93D puff was induced by a 5 min simultaneous treatment with anoxia and heat shock and, as a rule, was not induced by the analogous 20 min treatment. The role of anoxia in blocking heat shock puff induction under simultaneous effects of heat shock and anoxia is discussed. 相似文献

Embryos of the annual killifish Austrofundulus limnaeus can experience oxygen deprivation as part of their normal developmental environment. We exposed embryos to anoxia and monitored heart activity for 48 hr, and subsequent aerobic recovery from anoxia for 40 hr. Embryos were tested at four different developmental stages that differ in their tolerance of anoxia. Our results indicate that high tolerance of anoxia is associated with an arrest of heart contractility during the first 24 hr of anoxia. These embryos recover to normoxic levels of heart rate within 16 hr of aerobic recovery. In contrast, embryos from later developmental stages that have a highly reduced ability to survive long-term anoxia experience a severe bradycardia but not an arrest of heart rate. These data illustrate a new and potentially powerful model for investigating the effects of anoxia on the developing cardiovascular system in vertebrates. 相似文献

Summary The energy flow of the anaerobic metabolism of glodfish at 20°C during hypoxia and anoxia was studied by simultaneous direct and indirect calorimetry. During anoxia the heat production as determined by direct calorimetry (180 J · h–1 · kg–0.85) is reduced to 30% of the normoxic level (570 J · h–1 · kg–0.85), which is the same reduction as found previously. The patterns of substrate utilization are compared with previous results, where the anoxic pattern was established by simultaneous calorimetry without carbon dioxide measurements. The present results, which do include carbon dioxide measurements, show the same pattern: carbohydrate and protein as substrates and carbon dioxide, ethanol and fat as end products. The pattern of substrate utilization at low oxygen levels is a combination of the anoxic pattern with an aerobic component. During anoxia only 5% of the metabolizable energy is used for energy metabolism. Of the remaining part (metabolizable energy for production) 60% is converted into ethanol and 40% into fat. At two hypoxia levels the distribution of the metabolizable energy for production into ethanol and fat is the same. 相似文献

Summary Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) activity was present in roots and shoots of 48-h rice embryos and rose in response to anoxia. The increase was accompanied by changes in the ADH isozyme pattern. Translatable levels of mRNA for two ADH peptides increases as early as 1 h after the beginning of anoxic treatment. Adh mRNA was detected in aerobically grown rice embryos by hybridization to maize Adh1 cDNA: its level increased significantly after 3 h of anoxia. 相似文献

The effects of anoxic exposure and the post-anoxia aerobic recovery period on carbohydrate metabolism in the central nervous system (CNS) of the land snail Megalobulimus oblongus, an anoxia-tolerant land gastropod, were studied. The snails were exposed to anoxia for periods of 1.5, 3, 6, 12, 18, or 24 hr. In order to study the post-anoxia recovery phase, snails exposed to a 3-hr period of anoxia were returned to aerobic conditions for 1.5, 3, 6, or 15 hr. Glycogen and glucose concentrations in the CNS, hemolymph glucose concentration, and glycogen phosphorylase (active form, GPa) activity in the CNS were analyzed. Anoxia does not significantly affect the concentration of CNS glucose but induces hyperglycemia and a reduction of CNS GPa activity. The glycogen concentration was decreased at 12 hr of anoxia; however, by 18 and 24 hr in anoxia, the glycogen content was not significantly different from basal control values. During the post-anoxia period, the reduction in GPa activity and the increased hemolymph glucose concentration induced by anoxia returned to control values. These results suggest that the CNS of M. oblongus may use hemolymph glucose to fulfill the metabolic demands during anoxia. However, the hypothesis of tissue metabolic arrest cannot be excluded. 相似文献

The puffing pattern changes in the salivary gland chromosomes of the third instar larvae of the melonfly, Dacus cucurbitae are described. Three classes of puffs were noticed over a period of development of 120 hrs. Class (1) are those which are more or less constantly found; class (2) are those which oscillate, i.e. appear and disappear at irregular time intervals; and class (3) are those that are linked to a specific developmental event. Also, 3 peaks of puffing activity have been noticed during the present study; one in the 120 hr old larva, the second in the 168 hr old larva and the third in the 240 hr old larvae. The significance of these 3 classes of puffs and the 3 peaks in puffing activity has been discussed. The puff RNA has a high rate of synthesis and incorporates 3H-cytidine within 30 secs after being offered. There is a high degree of variation in the incorporation of labelled precursors into the different nuclei of the same gland, such a variation is not noticed in the diploid and embryonic cells. 相似文献

The effect of severe anoxia produced by gassing with 100% nitrogen on gastric mucosal permeability and hydrogen ion back diffusion was investigated using an in vitro preparation of rabbit fundic gastric mucosa mounted in an Ussing chamber. Permeability was estimated by determination of the flux of the water soluble, nonlipidsoluble molecule erythritol from the mucosal to serosal solution. The flux rate across normal tissue was 2.80 plus or minus 0.41 pmoles/cm-2/sec, and rose to 3.32 plus or minus 0.57 pmoles/cm-2/sec after 2 hr of severe anoxia. Hydrogen ion ack diffusion was measured by determining with a pH stat the amount of hydrogen required to maintain the [H+] of the mucosal solution at 0.1, 1.0, 2.0 and 3.2 mEq/L in both normal and anoxic tissues. One hour of anoxia increased the back diffusion of H+, but the changes only became statistically significant at all pH values after 1.5 hr. Anoxia did however cause an immediate fall in potential difference to zero, and a rise in resistance which after 30 min fell progressively to preanoxic levels. Anoxia produces a small increase in gastric mucosal, permeability, an effect which may be enhanced by other factors. 相似文献

The mammalian brain undergoes rapid cell death during anoxia that is characterized by uncontrolled Ca(2+) entry via N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs). In contrast, the western painted turtle is extremely anoxia tolerant and maintains close-to-normal [Ca(2+)](i) during periods of anoxia lasting from days to months. A plausible mechanism of anoxic survival in turtle neurons is the regulation of NMDARs to prevent excitotoxic Ca(2+) injury. However, studies using metabolic inhibitors such as cyanide (NaCN) as a convenient method to induce anoxia may not represent a true anoxic stress. This study was undertaken to determine whether turtle cortical neuron whole-cell NMDAR currents respond similarly to true anoxia with N(2) and to NaCN-induced anoxia. Whole-cell NMDAR currents were measured during a control N(2)-induced anoxic transition and a control NaCN-induced transition. During anoxia with N(2) normalized, NMDAR currents decreased to 35.3%+/-10.8% of control values. Two different NMDAR current responses were observed during NaCN-induced anoxia: one resulted in a 172%+/-51% increase in NMDAR currents, and the other was a decrease to 48%+/-14% of control. When responses were correlated to the two major neuronal subtypes under study, we found that stellate neurons responded to NaCN treatment with a decrease in NMDAR current, while pyramidal neurons exhibited both increases and decreases. Our results show that whole-cell NMDAR currents respond differently to NaCN-induced anoxia than to the more physiologically relevant anoxia with N(2). 相似文献

Oxygen deprivation has a role in the pathology of many human diseases. Thus it is of interest in understanding the genetic and cellular responses to hypoxia or anoxia in oxygen-deprivation-tolerant organisms such as Caenorhabditis elegans. In C. elegans the DAF-2/DAF-16 pathway, an IGF-1/insulin-like signaling pathway, is involved with dauer formation, longevity, and stress resistance. In this report we compared the response of wild-type and daf-2(e1370) animals to anoxia. Unlike wild-type animals, the daf-2(e1370) animals have an enhanced anoxia-survival phenotype in that they survive long-term anoxia and high-temperature anoxia, do not accumulate significant tissue damage in either of these conditions, and are motile after 24 hr of anoxia. RNA interference was used to screen DAF-16-regulated genes that suppress the daf-2(e1370)-enhanced anoxia-survival phenotype. We identified gpd-2 and gpd-3, two nearly identical genes in an operon that encode the glycolytic enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. We found that not only is the daf-2(e1370)-enhanced anoxia phenotype dependent upon gpd-2 and gpd-3, but also the motility of animals exposed to brief periods of anoxia is prematurely arrested in gpd-2/3(RNAi) and daf-2(e1370);gpd-2/3(RNAi) animals. These data suggest that gpd-2 and gpd-3 may serve a protective role in tissue exposed to oxygen deprivation. 相似文献

Mature green leaves of Acorus calamus and Iris pseudacorus have been shown to survive at least 28 d of total anoxia in the dark during the growing season, increasing up to 75 d and 60 d in overwintering leaves in A. calamus and I. pseudacorus, respectively. During the period of anaerobic incubation the glycolytic rate is reduced, carbohydrate reserves are conserved and ethanol levels in the tissues reached an equilibrium. Prolonged anoxia significantly suppressed leaf capacity for respiration and photosynthesis. After 28 d of anoxia, respiratory capacity was reduced in A. calamus and I. pseudacorus by 80% and 90%, respectively. The photosynthetic capacity of leaves decreased by 83% in A. calamus and by 97% in I. pseudacorus after 28 d of anoxia. This reduction in photosynthetic capacity was accompanied by a modification of the chlorophyll fluorescence pattern indicating damage to the PSII reaction centre and subsequent electron transport. Chlorophyll content was only slightly reduced after 28 d under anoxia and darkness in A. calamus, whereas there was a 50% reduction in I. pseudacorus. On return to air A. calamus leaves that endured 28 d of anoxia recovered full photosynthetic activity within 7 d while those of I. pseudacorus had a lag phase of 3-10 d. This well-developed ability to endure prolonged periods of oxygen deprivation in both these species is associated with a down-regulation in metabolic activity in response to the imposition of anaerobiosis. It is suggested that when leaf damage eventually does take place in these species after protracted oxygen deprivation, it is anoxic rather than post-anoxic stress that is responsible. 相似文献

Exposure of Drosophila melanogaster larvae to high temperature for short periods of time results in marked changes in the puffing patterns of salivary gland chromosomes. Temperature shock induces puffing at 9 specific loci; this pattern of induced puffs shows little developmental specificity and is similar in three strains of D. melanogaster (including the mutant lethal giant-larvae) and in D. simulans. Temperature shock also (i) retards the regression of some developmentally specific puffs and (ii) results in the regression of all other puffs normal to development. The effect of temperature treatment is similar in vivo and after in vitro treatment of salivary glands. The in vitro response is not sensitive to cycloheximide. A similar pattern of induced puffs to that found after temperature treatment is found during recovery of larvae from anoxia, but additional puffs are induced after anoxia. The size and duration of activity of the induced puffs is dependent upon the magnitude of the treatment. 相似文献

Role of trehalose phosphate synthase in anoxia tolerance and development in Drosophila melanogaster. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Recent studies have shown that trehalose plays a protective role in yeast in a variety of stresses, including heat, freezing and thawing, dehydration, hyperosmotic shock, and oxidant injury. Because (a) heat shock and anoxia share mechanisms that allow organisms to survive, (b) Drosophila melanogaster is tolerant to anoxia, and (c) trehalose is present in flies and is metabolically active, we asked whether trehalose can protect against anoxic stress. Here we report on a new role of trehalose in anoxia resistance in Drosophila. We first cloned the gene trehalose-6-phosphate synthase (tps1), which synthesizes trehalose, and examined the effect of tps1 overexpression as well as mutation on the resistance of Drosophila to anoxia. Upon induction of tps1, trehalose increased, and this was associated with increased tolerance to anoxia. Furthermore, in vitro experiments showed that trehalose reduced protein aggregation caused by anoxia. Homozygous tps1 mutant (P-element insertion into the third intron of the gene) leads to lethality at an early larval stage, and excision of the P-element rescues totally the phenotype. We conclude that trehalose contributes to anoxia tolerance in flies; this protection is likely to be due to a reduction of protein aggregation. 相似文献

Adrenergic responses during normoxia and chemical anoxia were investigated in anoxia-tolerant hepatocytes from the goldfish, Carassius auratus. Epinephrine-stimulated glucose release was unaltered after 1 hr of chemical anoxia, the concentration of epinephrine required for half maximal stimulation of glucose release (K0.5(GLU)) ranging from 0.62 x 10(-8) to 2.05 x 10(-8) M. Similarly, the maximum rate of glucose release caused by hormonal stimulation was not affected by chemical anoxia. In anoxic goldfish hepatocytes [Ca2+](i) remained constant in nonstimulated cells but could be elevated by addition of epinephrine. The magnitude of this [Ca(2+)](i)-increase was dependent on the concentration of the catecholamine and this dependency was similar under normoxia (K0.5(Ca2+) = 1.17 x 10(-8) M) and chemical anoxia (K0.5(Ca2+) = 1.15 x 10(-8) M), as was the percentage of cells responding (77%) and displaying oscillatory [Ca2+]i response patterns (60%) after epinephrine addition, although the frequency of [Ca2+]i oscillations was significantly lower in anoxic cells. To analyze a possible shift in the importance of alpha- and beta-adrenoceptors during chemical anoxia, the effect of phentolamine and propranolol, alpha- and beta-adrenergic antagonists respectively, on epinephrine-stimulated glucose release was studied. Application of the alpha-antagonist caused a dose-dependent reduction of glucose-release which was similar under both conditions, whereas the sensitivity to the beta-antagonist was lowered after chemical anoxia. Taken together these results provide evidence that during chemical anoxia goldfish hepatocytes remain responsive to adrenergic stimulation and that there is a partial shift regarding the contribution of alpha- and beta-adrenergic pathways to the induction of cellular glucose release stimulated by epinephrine. 相似文献

The indigenous North American Cranberry ( Vaccinium macrocarpon ), when cultivated in specially constructed cranberry bogs, is normally flooded in winter to prevent frost injury. This protection under ice can give rise to prolonged periods of anoxia, which depending on the state of the vines and environmental conditions, can cause severe oxygen-deprivation injury. An experimental study of the tolerance of cranberry vines to controlled total anoxia reveals that mature dark-green perennating leaves with high carbohydrate levels are able to survive prolonged periods of total oxygen-deprivation while younger newly formed leaves are readily damaged. During the anoxic treatment the mature leaves exhibit a marked downregulation of metabolism. Carbohydrate consumption and energy metabolism stabilize at low levels soon after the switch from aerobic to anaerobic pathways. Pathways such as TCA cycle or photosynthesis, which are non-operating during the anoxia treatment, are severely affected but still measurable after 28 days anoxia. In the post-anoxic period the perennating leaves rapidly re-establish their capacity for aerobic respiration and photosynthesis. 相似文献

Background
Preconditioning environments or therapeutics, to suppress the cellular damage associated with severe oxygen deprivation, is of interest to our understanding of diseases associated with oxygen deprivation. Wildtype C. elegans exposed to anoxia enter into a state of suspended animation in which energy-requiring processes reversibly arrest. C. elegans at all developmental stages survive 24-hours of anoxia exposure however, the ability of adult hermaphrodites to survive three days of anoxia significantly decreases. Mutations in the insulin-like signaling receptor (daf-2) and LIN-12/Notch (glp-1) lead to an enhanced long-term anoxia survival phenotype.Methodology/Principal Findings
In this study we show that the combined growth environment of 25°C and a diet of HT115 E. coli will precondition adult hermaphrodites to survive long-term anoxia; many of these survivors have normal movement after anoxia treatment. Animals fed the drug metformin, which induces a dietary-restriction like state in animals and activates AMPK in mammalian cell culture, have a higher survival rate when exposed to long-term anoxia. Mutations in genes encoding components of AMPK (aak-2, aakb-1, aakb-2, aakg-2) suppress the environmentally and genetically induced long-term anoxia survival phenotype. We further determine that there is a correlation between the animals that survive long-term anoxia and increased levels of carminic acid staining, which is a fluorescent dye that incorporates in with carbohydrates such as glycogen.Conclusions/Significance
We conclude that small changes in growth conditions such as increased temperature and food source can influence the physiology of the animal thus affecting the responses to stress such as anoxia. Furthermore, this supports the idea that metformin should be further investigated as a therapeutic tool for treatment of oxygen-deprived tissues. Finally, the capacity for an animal to survive long bouts of severe oxygen deprivation is likely dependent on specific subunits of the heterotrimeric protein AMPK and energy stores such as carbohydrates. 相似文献18.
