Cell kinetic parameters of mouse granulocytic and mononuclear cells growing in colonies in agar cultures have been measured. Analysis of flash and continuous labelling studies with 3H-thymidine together with determinations of colony size, growth fraction and mitotic indices, gave the following values for the phases of the cell cycle: G1= 6·3 1·6 hr, S = 5·8 ± 1·4 hr, G2= 1·7 ± 0·1 hr and M = 0·7 ± 0·1 hr (42 ± 8 min). No difference in the cell cycle parameters of granulocytic and mononuclear cells were found in this study.
Colonies of different size from cultures of the same age group had similar labelling indices, indicating that the size of a colony is not a function of the rate of proliferation of cells in the colony. Rather, variation in colony size is probably representative of an initial delay in the onset of colony development.  相似文献

Murine bone marrow cells were cultured in cell impermeable diffusion chambers in the abdominal cavities of mice. The kinetics of granulocyte and macrophage formation were studied by stathmokinetic and autoradiographic techniques. During the period of most rapid growth of proliferative granulocytes, their generation time and its different phases were: t c∽ 8 hr, t G1∽ 1·5 hr, t s∽ 5·5 hr, t G2∽ 0·7 hr and t M∽ 0·25 hr.
The generation time of macrophages and their precursors was approximately 8 hr. Formation of macrophages was significantly reduced when chamber inoculum was increased, as judged by 3H-TdR labelling index.  相似文献

A double isotope DNA labelling method has been used to determine the duration of DNA synthesis (S) in bone marrow lymphoid cells classified by their nuclear diameters in smears. Incorporation of 3H-thymidine was confined almost entirely to marrow lymphoid cells of 8·0-15·0 μm nuclear diameter (large lymphoid cells). After exposure to 3H-thymidine in vivo and 14C-thymidine 40-104 min later in vitro , the proportion of cells labelled with 3H alone to those labelled with 14C(±3H) in radioautographic smears, plotted against time indicated the efflux from S per hour. Collectively, 28·3 ± 1·1% of all large lymphoid cells were in S and the efflux from S was 15·1% per hour. With decreasing cell size (nuclear diameter) the efflux fell progressively from 28·3% per hour (11·0 μm) to 9·2% per hour (8·0-8·9 μm) and the proportion of cells in S declined from 54·9 ± 2·3% to 14·8 ± 1·6%. Influx into S, measured in vitro by reversing the sequence of isotopes, closely resembled the corresponding efflux values in vivo relative to cell size. Most DNA synthesizing marrow large lymphoid cells belonged to a subgroup with deeply basophilic cytoplasm. The results demonstrate that basophilic large lymphoid cells in the marrow are actively proliferating and have a mean S phase duration of 6·6 hr. The largest marrow lymphoid cells (11·0 μm) proliferate most rapidly (S phase, 3·5 hr; maximum cell cycle time, 6·4 hr) while S duration is prolonged progressively to 10·9 hr for the smaller cells (8·0-8·9 μm).  相似文献

The cell kinetics of the murine JB-1 ascites tumour have been investigated on days 4, 7 and 10 after transplantation of 2·5 × 106 cells. The experimental data, growth curve, percentage of labelled mitoses curves, continuous labelling curves and cytophotometric determination of single-cell DNA content have been analysed by means of a mathematical model for the cell kinetics. The important result was the existence of 8% non-cycling cells with G2 DNA content in the 10-day tumour, while only 0·2 and 0% were observed in the 7- and 4-day tumours, respectively. The doubling times determined from the growth curve were 22·8, 70 and 240 hr, respectively, in the 4-, 7- and 10-day tumours. Growth fractions of 76, 67 and 44% were calculated for the same tumour ages. The mean cell cycle time increased from 14 to 44 hr from day 4 to 7 due to a proportional increase in the mean transit time of all phases in the cell cycle. In the 10-day tumour, the mean cell cycle changed to 41 hr and T G1 decreased to 0·5 hr. The cell production rate was 4·3%/hr in the 4-day tumour, 1·2%/hr in the 7-day tumour and 1·0%/hr in the 10-day tumour. The cell loss rates in the same tumours were 1·3, 0·2 and 0·7%/hr, respectively. The analysis made it probable that the mode of cell loss was an age-specific elimination of non-cycling cells with postmitotic DNA content.  相似文献

Investigations were undertaken in CF1 mice to study the effects of hydroxyurea (HU) on hair matrix cell kinetics, and to assess the effects of combined administration of HU and irradiation on induction of temporary alopecia. HU 100 mg/kg was administered intraperitoneally and each animal received tritiated thymidine 0·5 μCi/g 30 min before biopsy. Serial biopsies were taken up to 48 hr after drug administration. Autoradiographs of anagen follicle squashes revealed sharp reductions in mitotic and labeling indices within 30 min. Depressed mitotic indices of 0·6–0·9% at 1–4 hr returned to normal (2·3%) after 6 hr, followed by cyclic mitotic 'overshoot', and were preceded by parallel changes in the labeling indices. HU-induced cellular damage was most marked 4 hr after HU injection, with almost complete recovery from injury observed at the 24 hr interval.
The effects of varying the time intervals from 1 to 12 hr between HU administration and irradiation (650 rads) after injection of HU 1200 mg/kg were examined. Hair loss was measured 7 days later by photomicroscopy. Cyclic maximum alopecia was found at the 1–5 and 8–12 hr intervals, with relative 'protection' occurring at the 6–7 hr time periods.  相似文献

Thermal tolerance of a northern population of striped bass Morone saxatilis   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Thermal tolerance of age 0+ year Shubenacadie River (Nova Scotia, Canada) striped bass Morone saxatilis juveniles (mean ± s . e . fork length, L F, 19·2 ± 0·2 cm) acclimated in fresh water to six temperatures from 5 to 30° C was measured by both the incipient lethal technique (72 h assay), and the critical thermal method ( C m). The lower incipient lethal temperature ranged from 2·4 to 11·3° C, and the upper incipient lethal temperature ( I U) from 24·4 to 33·9° C. The area of thermal tolerance was 618° C2. In a separate experiment, the I U of large age 2+ year fish (34·4 ± 0·5 cm L F) was 1·2 and 0·6° C lower ( P < 0·01) than smaller age 1+ year fish (21·8 ± 0·5 cm L F) at acclimation temperatures of 16 and 23° C. Using the C m, loss of equilibrium occurred at 27·4–37·7° C, loss of righting response at 28·1–38·4° C and onset of spasms at 28·5–38·8° C, depending on acclimation temperature. The linear regression slopes for these three responses were statistically similar (0·41; P > 0·05), but the intercepts differed (25·3, 26·0 and 26·5° C; P < 0·01). The thermal tolerance of this northern population appears to be broader than southern populations.  相似文献

Mucor circinelloides LU M40 produced 12·2 mU ml−1 of linamarase activity when grown in a 3 l fermenter in the following optimized medium (g l−1 deionized water): pectin, 10·0; (NH4)2SO4,
1·0; KH2PO4, 2·0; Na2HPO4, 0·7; MgSO4.7H2O, 0·5; yeast extract, 1·0; Tween-80,
1·0, added after 48 h of fermentation. The purified linamarase was a dimeric protein with a molecular mass of 210 kDa; the enzyme showed optimum catalytic activity at pH 5·5 and 40 °C and had a wide range (3·0–7·0) of pH stability. The enzyme substrate specificity on plant cyanogenic glycosides was wide; the Km value for linamarin was 2·93 mmol l−1. The addition, before processing, of the fungal crude enzyme to cassava roots facilitated and shortened detoxification; after 24 h of fermentation, all cyanogenic glycosides were hydrolysed.  相似文献

The mean rate of oxygen consumption (routine respiration rate, R R, mg O2 fish−1 h−1), measured for individual or small groups of haddock Melanogrammus aeglefinus (3–12 cm standard length, L S) maintained for 5 days within flow‐through respiratory chambers at four different temperatures, increased with increasing dry mass ( M D). The relationship between R R and M D was allometric ( R R = α  M b ) with b values of 0·631, 0·606, 0·655 and 0·650 at 5·0, 8·0, 12·0 and 15·0° C, respectively. The effect of temperature ( T ) and M D on mean R R was described by     indicating a Q 10 of 2·27 between 5 and 15° C. Juvenile haddock routine metabolic scope, calculated as the ratio of the mean of highest and lowest deciles of R R measured in each chamber, significantly decreased with temperature such that the routine scope at 15° C was half that at 5° C. The cost of feeding ( R SDA) was c . 3% of consumed food energy, a value half that found for larger gadoid juveniles and adults.  相似文献

The proliferative activity of liver epithelia in 3-week-old rats was studied auto-radiographically using 3H-thymidine. Only a single peak of labelled mitoses (late pro- to anaphases) at 7 hr was found in the per cent labelled mitoses curve after injection of 3H-thymidine. A second peak at about 32 hr described by Post, Huang & Hoffman (1963) and Post & Hoffman (1964, 1965) as well as Grisham (1969) and a cycle time of about 22 hr derived from the distance between the two peaks could not be confirmed by the present work.
According to the present experiments the cycle time of parenchymal liver cells in 3-week-old rats must range between 50 hr (with a growth fraction of 0·25) and 7·1 days (with a growth fraction of 1·0). The present results do not support the existence of a growth fraction of only 0·1 as assumed by Post et al. (1963).  相似文献

Survival, recoverability and sublethal injury of two strains of Listeria monocytogenes , Scott A and an environmental strain KM, on exposure to sea water at 12·8 or 20·8 °C was determined using in situ diffusion chambers. Plate counts were used to assess recoverability and injury while 5-cyano-2,3-ditolyl tetrazolium chloride (CTC) reduction was used to determine respiratory activity. T90 values (times for 10-fold decreases in numbers of recoverable cells) on non-selective medium (trypticase soya agar with 0·6% yeast extract) at 12·8 and 20·8 °C were 61·7 and 69·2 h for L. monocytogenes Scott A, and 103·0 and 67·0 h for L. monocytogenes KM, respectively. On selective medium (Oxford agar), T90 values at 12·8 and 20·8 °C were 60·6 and 56·9 h for L. monocytogenes Scott A, and 83·0 and 65·9 h for L. monocytogenes KM, respectively. With Scott A, the percentage of sublethally injured cells at 12·8 and 20·8 °C was 1·7 and 17·7%, respectively, while for KM the values were 19·0 and 1·6%, respectively. The fraction of cells reducing CTC but which were not recoverable on plating progressively increased on exposure to sea water. Listeria monocytogenes KM challenged at 58 °C showed an apparent increase in heat resistance after exposure to sea water at 20·8 °C for 7 d ( D 58= 2·64 min) compared with before exposure ( D 58= 1·24). This increase in thermal resistance was not apparent at temperatures greater than 63 °C, and analysis of the best-fit regression lines fitted to the thermal data obtained from the two cell populations indicated that their thermal resistance was not significantly different ( P > 0·05) over the temperature range tested (58–62 °C).  相似文献

The question was investigated of whether for crypt epithelia of the jejunum of the mouse all cells labelled after a single injection of 3H-TdR subsequently divide or whether cells exist in the crypt which synthesize metabolic DNA and, therefore, do not undergo division after labelling.
A double labelling experiment was performed with a first injection of 3H-TdR followed 1 hr later by an injection of 14C-TdR. Then from double emulsion autoradiographs of isolated squashed crypts the number of 3H-only, 14C-only and double labelled cells and mitoses were counted.
The double labelling produced a narrow, 1 hr wide sub-population of 3H-only labelled cells. This subpopulation of S cells completed its division before labelled cells were lost from the crypts by migration onto the villi. The results showed that this subpopulation of 3H-only cells completely doubled within 3 hr and then remained constant through 6 hr. From this result it was concluded that every cell labelled after a single injection of 3H-TdR divides.
From the same autoradiographs the flow rate through the end of mitosis was measured. From the flow rate and the mitotic index a mitotic duration of 0·5 hr was determined. The agreement of this measured mitotic time with the value calculated from the labelling index, mitotic index and S duration is also strong evidence that every labelled cell divides.
Both experiments show that the intestinal crypt does not contain cells synthesizing metabolic DNA.  相似文献

The Sr/Ca ratios in otoliths of silver Japanese eels Anguilla japonica , in Pearl River, China, indicated that both sexes did not stay in brackish water and grew in fresh water from the glass eel stage until spawning migration. This did not support the hypothesis that females tended to distribute upstream and males might be restricted to estuaries. The back-calculated total length of males at glass eel stage was not significantly different from that of females, indicating that the hypothesis that small glass eels became males and larger ones became females may not be true. The mean (±S.D.) age and total length of males at migration were 6·4±1·6 years and 48·3±4·5 cm, which were significantly smaller than for females, 8·3±1·6 years and 61·4±4·1 cm. The age of migration was related inversely to growth rate for both sexes. Growth parameters of the von Bertalanffy growth equation were K =0·21 cm year°1, L =55·7 cm and t o=-0·55 year for males and K =0·14 cm year−1, L =77·5 cm and t o=-0·60 year for females. The difference in asymptotic length ( L ) between males and females may be because females postpone migration to achieve larger size for maximizing reproductive success.  相似文献

Slurry storage tanks on Lancashire farms were sampled in May, June, October and November. There was a seasonal pattern in the number of thermophilic campylobacters. The average log10 MPN per gram fresh weight (log10 MPN gfw−1) in stored samples in May and June was 0·78 ( S.D. 0·71) compared to 2·07 ( S.D. 0·70) in November and December. Campylobacters were readily detected in samples of mature slurry and composted bedding that farmers were about to put to land. The survival of campylobacters in slurry sprayed on land was studied in two seasons. In June, on farm A, stored slurry was mechanically aerated for 48 h and very low numbers of campylobacters (0·9 log10 MPN gfw−1) remained in the slurry before it was sprayed onto land. They became undetectable within 24 h once sprayed on land. In contrast, campylobacters in matured but unaerated slurry that was sprayed onto land on farm B in February were still detectable in samples taken 5 d after application to land, dropping from 2·11 log10 MPN gfw−1–1·37, a decline of only 0·74 log10 MPN gfw−1 in the first 5 d after application.  相似文献

The survival of Atlantic salmon smolts on exposure to constant concentrations of cyanide and ammonia, singly and together, has been measured under laboratory conditions at a concentration of 5 mgl-1 of carbon dioxide. The 24-h LC50 values of cyanide and of un-ionised ammonia, in fresh water, were 0·073 mg HCN l-1 and 0·20 mg NH3l-1 respectively at a concentration of dissolved oxygen of 10 mg l-1, and 0·024 mg HCN l-1 and 0·08 mgNH3l-1 respectively at a concentration of dissolved oxygen of 3·5 mg l-1. In 30% sea water the corresponding values were similar for cyanide but markedly higher for ammonioa. In 80% sea water the values were intermediate between those of fresh water and 30% sea water. Prior acclimation of the fish to the respective toxicant increased the resistance of the fish only slightly to cyanide, but with ammonia the 24-h LC50 was increased between 1·4 and 2-fold after acclimation for 1–3 days to between 0·2 and 0·5 of the 24-h LC50 value. Mixtures of cyanide and ammonia were between 0·6 and 1·25 times as toxic as expected, assuming simple additivity of toxicity.  相似文献

The compensatory growth of juvenile brown flounder Paralichthys olivaceus (body mass c. 12 g) following different thermal exposure was investigated. Fish were exposed to one of the five temperatures: 8·5 ( T 8·5), 13·0 ( T 13·0), 17·5 ( T 17·5), 22·0 ( T 22·0) and 26·5° C ( T 26·5) for 10 days and fish grew best at 22·0° C. Then the water temperature in all treatments was equably adjusted to 22·0° C over 3 days. At the end of the following 30 days after temperature adjustment, there were no significant differences between body masses of fish in the different treatments (wet body mass at the end of the experiment ranged from 22·13 to 24·56 g). Results indicated that the juvenile P. olivaceus achieved complete compensatory growth. Analysis of the dynamics of the feeding rates and feed conversion efficiencies indicated that compensatory growth of the fish experienced low temperature ( T 8·5, T 13·5 and T 17·5) or high temperature ( T 26·5) exposure was mainly dependent on increasing feed intake (hyperphagia) and possibly by improvement in feed conversion efficiency. The moisture content was not affected by different temperature exposure significantly. The lipid and energy content of juvenile P. olivaceus in T 8·5, however, were significantly lower than other treatment. Results of the current study indicate that a short period of low or high temperature exposure may not affect annual growth, but may affect lipid and energy deposition.  相似文献

Abstract— Slices of cerebral cortex were incubated in medium containing 0·75 or 2·8 mM 45CaCl2, in the presence or absence of 0·01–0·1 m m -ouabain. Ouabain induced accumulation of calcium by slices to a maximum of 4 μmoles/g of tissue/hr (0·75 m m -CaCl2 in the medium) and to 8 μmoles/g of tissue/hr (2·8 m m -CaCl2 in the medium). Accumulation of Ca2+ occurred more slowly than loss of K+ from the slices and more closely resembled the pattern of Na+ uptake.
Mitochondrial fractions isolated from ouabain-treated slices contained significantly more calcium than controls. Inclusion of EDTA in the homogenization medium resulted in decreased amounts of particulate-bound calcium.
The effect of ouabain on accumulation of calcium is discussed with regard to possible relationships to processes of active and passive transport.  相似文献

Cow's milk was inoculated with ca 103 and 107 cfu ml−1 Escherichia coli O157 : H7. After fermentation at 42°C for 0–5 h, the yoghurt was stored at 4°C. Two kinds of yoghurt were used : traditional yoghurt (TY), made with Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus starter cultures, and 'bifido' yoghurt (BY), made with the two starter cultures plus Bifidobacterium bifidum . After 7 d E. coli O157 : H7 decreased from 3·52 to 2·72 log10 cfu ml−1 and from 7·08 to 5·32 log10 cfu ml−1 in TY, and from 3·49 to 2·73 log10 cfu ml−1 and from 7·38 to 5·41 log10 cfu ml−1 in BY. The pH values of yoghurt dropped from 6·6 to 4·5 and 4·4 in TY (for low and high pathogen inocula, respectively), and from 6·6 to 4·6 and 4·5 in BY (for low and high pathogen inocula, respectively).  相似文献

Aquatic and aerial respiration of the amphibious fishes Lipophrys pholis and Periophthalmus barbarus were examined using a newly designed flow-through respirometer system. The system allowed long-term measurements of oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide release during periods of aquatic and aerial respiration. The M o 2 of L. pholis , measured at 15° C, was 2·1 μmol O2 g–1 h–1 during aquatic and 1·99 μmol O2 g–1 h–1 during aerial exposure. The corresponding values of the M co2 were 1.67 and 1.59 μmol O2 g–1 h–1 respectively, giving an aquatic respiratory exchange ratio (RER) of 0·80 and an aerial RER of 0·79. The M o2 of P. barbarus , measured at 28°C, was 4·05 μmol O2 g–1 h–1 during aquatic and 3·44 μmol O2 g–1 h–1 during aerial exposure. The corresponding values of the Mco2 were 3·29 μmol CO2 g–1 h–1 and 2·63 μmol CO2 g–1 h–1 respectively, giving an aquatic RER of 0·81 and an aerial RER of 0·77. While exposed to air for at least 10 h, both species showed no decrease in metabolic rate or carbon dioxide release. The RER of these fishes equalled their respiratory quotient. After re-immersion an increased oxygen consumption, due to the payment of an oxygen debt, could not be detected.  相似文献

The life history, population and reproductive variables of the southern red tabira bitterling Acheilognathus tabira jordani were investigated in a lowland reach of the River Ohara in Shimane Prefecture, western Honshu, Japan. Acheilognathus t. jordani , like all other species of bitterling, lays its eggs on the gills of freshwater mussels. It was the only species of bitterling present in the study reach, and three species of bivalve mussel were available to it for spawning: Anemina arcaeformis, Anodonta lauta and Corbicula leana . Spawning by A.t. jordani was recorded between early April and early July in 2003 and began at a size of 38· 0 mm standard length ( L S) in the 1+ age class. Ovipositor length ( L OP) during oviposition was positively correlated with female L S, and showed significant seasonal variation, with a mean ± s.d. L OP of 27· 5 ± 5· 3 mm ranging from 16· 8 to 42· 0 mm during the spawning period, which was shorter than that of a previously studied A. t. tabira population. Eggs of this subspecies are relatively long and elliptic in shape, with a volume of c. 2· 4 mm3. Egg number correlated positively with female L S and both egg shape and volume changed significantly with season. The population size of adults was estimated to be 850 individuals, and comprised age 0+ to 3+ individuals with L S ranging from 12· 0 to 72· 2 mm. The population sex ratio was significantly female biased, with seven females: three males. Egg shape and size and L OP during oviposition in the present A. tabira population may be the result of local adaptations to the mussel species utilized and no competition with other bitterling species for spawning sites.  相似文献

Reproductive investment in the Silurus meridionalis   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
A comparison of pre- and postspawning Silurus meridionalis showed that 20·7% of body stored energy was utilized during spawning for a standard male (74·5 cm) and 23·8% for a standard female (85·3 cm). About one-third of the loss of the stored energy was released as eggs by females, and almost all of the energy loss for males and about two-thirds for females were expended in metabolism. Stored lipid as fuel for metabolism supplied 90·0% of energy in males and 95·2% in females, and protein supplied the rest of the energy. Models for predicting energy in released gametes ( G g), deposited in the body as somatic growth ( G s), utilized in spawning activity ( S a), expended in maintenance ( M , including metabolism, faeces and excretion), and food energy ( C ) were developed, and annual energy budgets were compiled. The balanced budget for a male aged 4 was: 100 C =0·06 G g+11·17 S a+19·5 G s+69·2 M , and for a female aged 5: 100 C =5·48 G g+8·51 S a+15·8 G s+70·2 M .  相似文献
