Albino rats (Wistar) and albino mice (RAP) were either injected intravenously with ethanol during the preimplantation period (day 4 and 3, respectively) or injected in the same way after a previous chronic alcoholization (peroral consumption of 20% ethanol for 50-60 and 32-35 days, respectively before mating, adding the days until killing). The control of possible effects was performed on day 5 (rats) and 4 (mice) by usual flushing, examination and photographing of oviductal and uterine embryos. A group of albino rats, with chronic alcoholization, was controlled for late, fetal effects (resorption rate, skeletal control, possible ocular anomalies). The main results obtained were as follows: Acute ethanol intoxication. Rats: significant increase of pathological, fragmented preimplantation embryos with a marked "litter effect". Mice: no deleterious effect upon preimplantation development. Chronic alcoholization + acute ethanol intoxication. Rats: significant retardation of the preimplantation development rate and a significant increase of the number of pathological, fragmented embryos with a marked "litter effect". Mice: demonstrable advance of preimplantation development and migration rate. Chronic alcoholization--late fetal control in rats: the increase of resorption rate; the more frequent absence of sacral vertebrae; very rare rib anomalies and the absence of ocular malformations. 相似文献

The preimplantation and early postimplantation effect of chronic alcohol consumption (at least a month before mating and during pregnancy until killing) and of acute ethanol intoxication during the preimplantation period (i.v. infection of ethanol) was studied on albino rats (Wistar) and albino mice (RAP). The main results were as follows: Chronic alcoholization. Rats: significant retardation of preimplantation development and in early postimplantation stages; a tendency of lowering of the mean litter size. Mice: significant increase of the number of preimplantation pathological forms; a tendency of lowering of the mean litter size. Pathological changes show, both in rats and mice, an obvious "litter effect". Acute ethanol intoxication. Rats: significant retardation in some litters, normal or even advanced development in others. This effect differs from the previously reported effect of acute ethanol intoxication during early postimplantation stages. The results obtained attest the prenatal noxious effect of chronic ethanol consumption in both species used and of acute ethanol intoxication during preimplantation development upon early postimplantation development in rats. Within the limits of extrapolation possibilities, they represent a risk signal for other species (including human). 相似文献

In completion of the previously outlined "experimental alcohol blastopathy", the role of acetaldehyde in the induction of preimplantation pathological changes in rat embryos has been controlled. Two experimental models were used: the direct administration of acetaldehyde by gavage and the blockage of acetaldehyde metabolization by ANTALCOL (an aldehyde-dehydrogenase blocking compound). The main results were as follows: The exogenous acetaldehyde in the blood of pregnant animals has an obvious effect upon the developmental rate during the late preimplantation period (retarding segmentation, blastulation), and in one of the experimental models upon the oviductal-uterine migration rate. The increase of the blood acetaldehyde level by blockage of its further metabolization has a more marked effect as compared with the direct intravenous administration of the substance. According to our previous observations the intravenous application of ethanol on the same day (day 4) has no such effect. The direct noxious influence upon the developing preimplantation embryos (fragmentation) of the increased level of acetaldehyde obtained by ANTALCOL treatment is similar but more marked than this effect obtained previously by ethanol administration. The same effect observed after the direct administration of the substance is less marked than the effect of ANTALCOL treatment but more marked than the effect of intravenous ethanol administration. These results attest that acetaldehyde may contribute (alone or together with the effect of ethanol) to the induction of "experimental alcohol blastopathy". The less marked action of the substance proper introduced into the blood stream may be due--in our opinion--to its possible alteration during the period between distillation and application. 相似文献

Acute ethanol intoxication in albino mice (RAP) induced by intravenous administration of ethanol on day 4 of pregnancy delayed or inhibited implantation in about 25 per cent of the cases. The noxious action upon the implantation process showed a clear-cut "litter effect" and the mean litter was not affected by the experimental intervention. In very early postimplantation stage (day 6 of pregnancy) a statistically significant advance of some main morphogenetic indices was detected in treated specimens. As a possible explanation of this finding, a "selection" of more resistant and viable embryos by the acute ethanol intoxication is presumed. The data discussed in the present paper, together with authors' previous findings suggest a possible noxious action of acute ethanol intoxication during preimplantation stages upon implantation. 相似文献

The effects of chronic consumption of some beverages (plum-brandy 24% and cognac 20%) upon preimplantation development in rats were studied. The control of possible effects was performed on day 5 by usual flushing, examination and photographying of oviductal and uterine embryos. In order to evaluate the effect of the beverage applied, the following criteria were used: mean litter size, migration of the embryos from the oviduct to the uterus, the developmental stage attained by the pre-implantation embryos and the appearance of pathological embryos. The main results were the following: both beverages applied influenced the preimplantation development; with respect to the developmental rate and to the induction of pathological changes, the effect of both beverages was similar (retardation and an increased, number of pathological morulae and blastocysts); a different action could be detected as to the mean litter size and to the migration of preimplantation embryos: plum-brandy reduced more substantially the mean litter size, whereas cognac had a more marked retarding effect upon the migration of embryos from the oviduct to the uterus: all the changes detected show a more or less marked "litter-effect". The present data were compared with the corresponding effects of chronic ethanol administration observed previously in our laboratory. No obvious potentiating effect of beverage congeners could be established. The findings are discussed in connection with other experimental models of alcohol embryo and fetopathy. 相似文献

The preimplantation effect of acute intoxication during the preimplantation period of pregnancy (i.p. or i.v. injection on day 4) with beer and wine has been investigated on female albino rats (Wistar strain). The following criteria were applied for checking preimplantation development: mean number of embryos/animal; topographical distribution of the embryos; developmental stage attained; occurrence of pathological embryonic forms. The control on day 5 of pregnancy revealed no significant effect upon the developmental criteria used. The data obtained are compared with our own previous results. 相似文献

Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) embryos exposed to ethanol have developed craniofacial, cardiovascular and skeletal defects which can be compared with the phenotypic features of fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) observed in human. The present experiment was designed to show that the disruption in circulation by ethanol during embryogenesis is a potential cause of FASD. Fertilized eggs were exposed to ethanol (0, 100 and/or 400 mM) for 24 or 48 h at various developmental stages (Iwamatsu stages 4-30) and were analyzed at 6 day post fertilization (dpf). It was observed that controls and the embryos exposed to 100 mM ethanol were in circulating state; however, a significant number of embryos of stages 4-24 exposed to 400 mM ethanol had disrupted circulation. Compared to controls, protein and RNA contents were significantly reduced in non-circulating embryos. Lipid peroxidation (LPO) analysis was made at 3, 6, 24, 48, 96 and 144 hour post fertilization (hpf). LPO was increased with the advancement of morphogenesis; however, ethanol or the circulation status had no effect. We further analyzed alcohol dehydrogenase (Adh 5 and adh8) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (Aldh9A and Aldh1A2) enzyme mRNAs in the embryos exposed to 400 mM ethanol for 24 h. A developmental stage-specific reduction in these enzyme mRNAs by ethanol was observed. We conclude that ethanol-induced disruption in circulation during embryogenesis is a potential cause of the development of FASD features in medaka. 相似文献

Female albino mice (RAP strain) were injected intravenously with absolute alcohol diluted aa by a.d., on days 2, 3 and 4 of pregnancy respectively. Macroscopically pregnant and empty uteri were controlled by microscopic examination. The developmental rate of postimplantation embryos was controlled by a previously reported biometrical method. The acute ethanol intoxication did not influence the postimplantation developmental rate (except for the appearance and development of the allantoic bud). In some of the uteri of the treated females (mainly of those treated on day 4), free blastocysts were found in the uterine lumen on day 9 of pregnancy, supposedly due to the deleterious effect of ethanol intoxication on central and local factors of implantation. Regressive changes of the decidua and consecutive embryonic death found in two litters may be caused by the same deleterious effect or (and) by inflammatory changes present in the endometrium of some control and treated females. The acute ethanol intoxication lowered the mean litter size in all the experimental groups. 相似文献

Ebselen prevents early alcohol-induced liver injury in rats 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Oxidants have been shown to be involved in alcohol-induced liver injury. Moreover, 2-phenyl-1,2-benzisoselenazole-3(2H)-one (ebselen), an organoselenium compound and glutathione peroxidase mimic, decreases oxidative stress and protects against stroke clinically. This study was designed to test the hypothesis that ebselen protects against early alcohol-induced liver injury in rats. Male Wistar rats were fed high-fat liquid diets with or without ethanol (10-16 g/kg/d) continuously for up to 4 weeks using the intragastric enteral feeding protocol developed by Tsukamoto and French. Ebselen (50 mg/kg twice daily, intragastrically) or vehicle (1% tylose) was administered throughout the experiment. Mean urine ethanol concentrations were not significantly different between treatment groups, and ebselen did not affect body weight gains or cyclic patterns of ethanol concentrations in urine. After 4 weeks, serum ALT levels were increased significantly about 4-fold over control values (37 +/- 5 IU/l) by enteral ethanol (112 +/- 7 IU/l); ebselen blunted this increase significantly (61 +/- 8 IU/l). Enteral ethanol also caused severe fatty accumulation, mild inflammation, and necrosis in the liver (pathology score: 4.3 +/- 0.3). In contrast, these pathological changes were blunted significantly by ebselen (pathology score: 2.5 +/- 0.4). While there were no significant effects of either ethanol or ebselen on glutathione peroxidase activity in serum or liver tissue, ebselen blocked the increase in serum nitrate/nitrite caused by ethanol. Furthermore, ethanol increased the activity of NF-kappaB over 5-fold, the number of infiltrating neutrophils 4-fold, and the accumulation of 4-hydroxynonenal over 5-fold. Ebselen blunted all of these effects significantly. These results indicate that ebselen prevents early alcohol-induced liver injury, most likely by preventing oxidative stress, which decreases inflammation. 相似文献

Two-cell-stage embryos were flushed from the oviducts on Day 2. Zygotes were collected from oviducts on Day 1 (Fertilization In Situ, ISF) or derived from fertilization in vitro (IVF). 2-cell embryos had a high rate of blastocyst development to each embryo concentration from 1 embryo/microliter to 1 embryo/1000 microliters. The zygotes produced by either ISF or IVF were adversely affected by reducing the embryo concentration over this range (P < 0.001), with approximately 82.5% of ISF zygotes developing to blastocysts at highest concentration but only 22.3% at the lowest. For IVF zygotes the corresponding results were 46.3% and 5.2%. The number of cells in each blastocyst from 2-cell embryos was significantly higher than that from ISF and IVF group. The media supplementing Platelet-activating factor (PAF) caused a significant increase in the rate of blastocyst development of IVF zygotes at embryo concentration of 1 embryo/10 microliters (10 ng/ml) and 1 embryo/100 microliters (100 ng/ml). Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) (10 ng/ml) also stimulated development of IVF zygotes when they were cultured at the concentration of 1 embryo/10 microliters. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) was no effect over range of 1-1000 ng/ml to embryo development. The results show that factors necessary for normal embryo development are diluted to suboptimal levels during culture at low embryo concentration. The PAF, IGF-I partially compensate the effects of low embryo concentration during culture and play important roles as autocrine embryotrophic factors. 相似文献

We compared the characteristics of ultraweak emissions from groups of loach embryos of different ages in the presence or absence of optic interaction. The percentage of zero values of emission gradually increased during the first hour of optic interaction. The number and height of rare big pulses estimated by the value of kurtosis increased in parallel. In addition, the correlation between the Fourier spectra of optically interacting samples decreased at a higher rate than in the absence of optical contact. Just after the 1-hour optic interaction was terminated, the number of high pulses decreased in a younger interacting group and increased in the older one and the farther away the partner groups were in developmental stages, the more pronounced these differences were. Measurements of the Fourier spectra after long-term (12–22-hour) optic interactions have shown that an exchange of autocorrelation characteristics of the spectra took place among the samples: the sums of autocorrelation coefficients were inverted in the vast majority of cases, often with an overshoot or, at least, were smoothed over with reference to the control samples. We conclude that the previously described effects of optic interactions between groups of loach embryos of different ages could be due to changes in the frequency spectra of their ultraweak emissions. 相似文献

We used two experimental paradigms to examine the influence of the neurotrophins, NGF, EGF, and bFGF on normal neuroblast survival and also after ethanol insult. In the first paradigm, chick embryos received in ovo at embryonic day 1 and 2 (E1 and E2) saline (control) ethanol (10mg/50 l/day), NGF (50 ng/50 l/day), or EGF (25 ng/50 l/day), or ethanol+NGF or EGF. At E3, cultures were prepared from whole embryos separately from each group. At C2, all cultures were labeled with [3H]thymidine and assessed for effects or neuronal survival. In the second paradigm, cultures were prepared from 3-day-old whole embryos and at CO, cultures were treated with either ethanol (50 mM) alone, NGF (50 ng/ml) alone, EGF (25 ng/ml) alone, bFGF (50 ng/ml) alone, or were treated concomitantly with ethanol plus one of the neurotrophins; control had only the culture medium, DMEM+5% FBS. We obtained the following findings. 1) Cultures derived from embryos treated with either of the three neurotrophins exhibited a higher neuronal survival as compared to controls (1st paradigm). 2) The survival-promoting effect was also observed when the neurotrophins were added directly to the cultures (2nd paradigm). 3) As reported previously, cultures derived from ethanol-treated embryos exhibited a marked decline in neuronal survival as compared to controls. 4) All three neurotrophins attenuated the decline in neuronal survival produced by ethanol. The rescuing effects of the neurotrophins support our early hypothesis that ethanol administration during early neurogenesis interferes with microenvironmental trophic signals essential for neuroblast survival and differentiation. 相似文献

Vitellogenins (Vtgs) are the major yolk proteins in all oviparous animals. Systematic and regulated processing of these during embryogenesis is crucial for embryonic development. In the present study, toxicant-induced disturbance of Vtg degradation processes during Danio rerio (DR) embryogenesis was analysed to establish a sensitive tool for monitoring toxic stress at the molecular level. A 2-DE-based proteomic approach for whole DR embryos was established to study Vtg cleavage products (lipovitellin (Lv) derivatives). Ethanol was chosen as a positive control for a toxicity related change in the proteome of whole zebra fish embryos. Protein extracts from embryos treated with two ethanol concentrations, 0.5 and 2% v/v, showing either no or very strong visible effects, like absent heartbeat and blood circulation, were examined. Significant changes in the Lv pattern were detected for both conditions. The results are interpreted as scope for the use of the high abundant Lv derivatives as sensitive stress indicators in zebra fish embryos reflecting the overall fitness of the intact organisms. 相似文献

Experimental data are presented with respect to "experimental alcohol blastopathy" performed in our laboratory. As in our interpretation the notion of blastopathy involves both pathological changes during preimplantation development due to previous, preconceptional or preimplantation influences and later, pre- or postnatal effects induced by factors active during the preimplantation period, up to now the following experimental models were applied (on rats and mice): chronic and acute maternal, biparental or paternal ethanol alcoholization; preimplantation treatment with acetaldehyde or disulfiram followed by ethanol administration; acute ethanol intoxication before implantation on the background of chronic maternal ethanol intake; chronic maternal intake of various beverages. The main components of experimental alcohol blastopathy detected (by using a complex control methodology) were: pathological changes during the preimplantation developmental stages (lower mean number of embryos/animal, retardation of development, lowered migration rate of the embryos from the oviduct to the uterus, higher number of pathological morphological features), delayed implantation, disturbances of the early postimplantation development, retarded late foetal and placental growth. The effect of ethanol may be direct (ethanol being detectable in the oviductal and uterine fluid after both acute and chronic alcoholization) or indirect, via changes of the maternal macro- or microenvironment. The increase of the maternal blood acetaldehyde level may contribute to the appearance of alcohol blastopathy. Chronic beer and wine intake and acute intoxication with cognac suggest - up to now - the enhancing effect of beverage congeners. The noxious effect of acute ethanol intoxication superposed to chronic alcoholization is more marked that the separate effect of the two kinds of treatment. The chronic ethanol intake of fertilizing males (in mice) leads, both in the case of treated or untreated females, to lowered fertilization efficiency, to retardation of development (not occurring in the experimental model with chronic alcoholization of females) and to an enhanced increase of the number of pathological features. The cytogenetic control of preimplantation embryos (after chronic, acute or combined treatment with ethanol) does not reveal significant chromosomal changes. A possible alcohol blastopathy in humans must be taken into account (i.e. a noxious effect during the very early period of pregnancy when it is ignored). 相似文献

The threshold pH for survival of early life stages of pike Esox lucius in post-mining lakes was determined in a laboratory experiment using artificial water characterized by high concentrations of dissolved Ca, Al, Fe, Mn and SO2/4− . At pH 3·50–4·00, high mortality was observed before hatching. At pH 4·00 and 4·25, hatching rates were reduced compared with the controls (pH 7·40), and many embryos died in a partly hatched state. Hatching success of embryos exposed to pH levels of 4·50 or higher was not affected. However, at pH 5·00 many newly hatched embryos were deformed. Furthermore, pike exposed to pH 4·00–5·00 did not start feeding. At pH 4·75 and below, mortality increased to 100%, and at pH 5·00, only few eleutheroembryos which were in extremely poor condition survived to the end of the experiment. At pH 5·50, survival was in the same range as in the control group, but growth was reduced. Therefore, early life stages of pike are expected to survive in Lustian post-mining lakes when a pH of 5·50 and above is reached and maintained. 相似文献

A/J strain mice have a high spontaneous incidence of cleft lip (ICL) and/or palate. The primary palate-related effects of sevoflurane on developing A/J strain mouse embryos (embryos) were studied using a whole-embryo culture (WEC) system. This system could separate the direct effects of sevoflurane from those that are maternally mediated. A total of 205 10.5-d embryos were cultured for 24 h in either a control group (control gas: 95% O2 and 5% CO2) or sevoflurane-administered groups (1/4, 1/2, and 1 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) with control gas) for 8 h. After 16 h, 11.5-d culture embryos were examined in terms of crown-rump length, number of somites, and protein content. Crown-rump length in the 1 MAC was significantly shorter than in the control group (p?<?0.05). Protein content in the 1/2 MAC (p?<?0.05) and 1 MAC (p?<?0.001) was significantly lower than in the control group. The ICL showed no significant differences between each group. (The ICL rose with an increase in the sevoflurane concentration, but this was not significant). The positive findings in this study indicate that a WEC system is useful for studying the mechanisms of ICL (teratogenicity) associated with sevoflurane. 相似文献

Neurotensin is a tridecapeptide, present in the central nervous system and the gastrointestinal tract in man and animals. The affect of orally administered ethanol (1 g/kg body weight) on the neurotensin secretion over 24 hr period was studied in eight young healthy men. No significant circadian rhythm of neurotensin secretion was detected in the eight subjects studied. Ethanol produced a progressive rise in the plasma level of neurotensin reaching a maximum at 12:00 (13.8 +/- 8.6 pmol/l). At 12:00 and 14:00, the neurotensin concentrations were significantly higher than on the placebo day (p < 0.05). The secretion rate of neurotensin was determined approximately using the area under the curve method. Ethanol produced a transient rise in neurotensin secretion over the first 12 hrs period (08:00-20:00 h) after its administration (p < 0.02). The observation that ethanol increases transiently the neurotensin secretion in man supports the hypothesis that neurotensin may be involved in the biological effect of ethanol. The source of its secretion remains to be elucidated. 相似文献

Elimination of spontaneous and chemically induced chromosome aberrations in mice during early embryogenesis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Summary NMRI mice () were treated with 0.25 mg/kg body weight Trenimon (2,3,5-triethyleneiminobenzoquinone-1,4) in the preovulatory phase just before ovulation. Then they were mated with untreated males.The female mice were dissected 45 h after application of this mutagen. The preimplantation embryos, being in a 2-cell stage, were flushed out of the oviduct and cultured in vitro for 60 h. Of the cultured embryos 87.7% reached the blastocysts stage in the control series, whereas only 49.7% did so in the experiments.Some of the females were dissected on the 14th day post conception (p.c.) and the number of dead and living implants was determined.Furthermore, the 9.5- and 13.5-day-old embryos were cytologically investigated, to determine the frequency of chromosomal aberrations.Of the unfertilized oocytes 76.2% deriving from mice treated with 0.25 mg/kg Trenimon, were aberrant in the stage of metaphase II (Röhrborn and Hansmann, 1971).Comparing Röhrborn's and Hansmann's results (1971) to our own findings a continous elimination of chromosome aberration is clearly to be seen during early embryogenesis. The biological selection takes place in the pre- as well as in the early and late postimplantative phase. 相似文献

Objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of season and dose of FSH on superovulatory responses in Iranian Bos indicus beef cattle (Sistani). Cyclic cows, in summer (n=16) and winter (n=16), were assigned randomly to three dose-treatment groups of 120 (n=10), 160 (n=12) and 200 (n=10) total mg of Folltropin-V with injections given twice daily for 4 days in decreasing doses. Estrous cycles were synchronized with two prostaglandin F2alpha injections given 14 days apart. From day 5 after the ensuing cycle, daily ovarian ultrasonography was conducted to determine emergence of the second follicular wave at which time superovulation was initiated. Relative humidity, environmental and rectal temperatures were measured at 08:00, 14:00 and 20:00 h for the 3 days before and 2 days after the estrus of superovulation. Non-surgical embryo recovery was performed on day 7 after estrus. The effects of season, dose, time of estrous expression and all two-way interactions were evaluated on superovulatory responses: total numbers of CL, unovulated follicles (10 mm), ova/embryo, transferable and non-transferable embryos. Season (summer or winter), doses of Folltropin-V (120, 160 or 200 mg NIH) and time of estrous expression (08:00, 14:00 or 20:00 h) did not affect the number of transferable embryos (3.1+/-0.58). When superovulatory estrus was detected at 08:00, a FSH dose effect was detected with the greatest numbers of CL (12.2+/-0.87) and total ova/embryos (12.2+/-1.46) occurring with 200 mg FSH (dosextime of estrous expression; P<0.01). 相似文献

Plant regeneration from embryogenic cells of two Rosa hybrida cultivars, Kardinal and Classy, was increased by dispersing embryogenic callus in liquid medium for 3 h followed by size-fractionation to isolate proembryogenic masses that were smaller than 530 m. Dispersed callus of three cultivars, Kardinal, Classy, and Tineke, produced 61–135 cotyledonary-stage embryos/100 mg fresh weight (FW) as compared to intact callus that had not been dispersed, which produced only zero to three cotyledonary-stage embryos/100 mg FW. Over 500 cotyledonary-stage embryos/100 mg FW callus developed from proembryogenic masses of Kardinal, Classy, and Tineke following 2 months of culture on solidified Murashige and Skoogs basal salts medium supplemented with 0.25% activated charcoal. Cotyledonary-stage embryos of Classy that developed from both dispersed callus and fractionated cells of various sizes showed a significantly higher conversion frequency to plants (28%) than cotyledonary-stage embryos isolated from intact callus (9%). The highest conversion frequencies for Kardinal (50–58%) occurred from cotyledonary-stage embryos that developed from dispersed callus and from the fraction of cells smaller than 850 m.Abbreviations BAP 6-Benzyladenine - FeEDDHA Ferric ethylenediamine di(o-hydroxyphenylacetate) - FW Fresh weight - PEMs Proembryogenic masses - PGRs Plant growth regulatorsCommunicated by S.A.
