Physiological, biochemical and histological indices in Clarias gariepinus broodstock, and teratogenic indices in embryos exposed to sublethal concentrations of naphthalene, phenanthrene and pyrene were investigated in 2014 using a static-renewal bioassay protocol. Phenanthrene (1.41 mg l?1) was the most toxic, followed by pyrene (1.53 mg l?1) and naphthalene (7.21 mg l?1), based on 96 h LC50 values. Hepatosomatic indices were significantly higher in naphthalene- and pyrene-treated males compared with solvent controls, whereas fecundity in females was significantly lower by factors of 2.4 (naphthalene), 2.8 (phenanthrene) and 2.4 (pyrene), compared with controls. Catalase levels were lower in female phenanthrene-treated fish compared with controls. Histological alterations observed in PAH-treated fish include oedema, inflammatory cells, epithelial lifting and hyperplasia in the gills, vacuolation, haemosiderin pigments and sinusoidal congestion in the liver, and degenerated zona radiata in the ovary. Teratogenic effects were not observed, as evidenced by the lack of histological alterations in embryos spawned from pre-exposed broodstock. Sex-specific responses and the utility of biomarkers at cellular and individual levels of organisation are therefore demonstrated for holistic evaluations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in ecotoxicological studies. 相似文献

Ca, Mg-dependent endonuclease is one of the main DNAses of lymphocyte chromatin. It's activity is known to increase in the immune response and to decrease in spontaneous and experimental CLL. These observations became a basis for analysis of possible clinical meaning of it's enzymatic activity assay. Donors' peripheral blood lymphocytes being tested, normal level of endonucleolysis for men and children was defined. Except that patients with different clinical forms of lymphoproliferative diseases such as chronic lympholeukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphomas, Hodgkin's disease were observed. The results showed that Ca, Mg-dependent endonucleolysis activity was decreased in comparison to donors' one. Ca, Mg-dependent endonucleolysis activity was the same in the group of patients with non-malignant pathology and in donors' one. Successful treatment and remission state of our patients was associated with alteration of the Ca, Mg-dependent endonucleolysis activity to normal level as well as immunological parameters. That is why the activity of Ca, Mg-dependent endonucleolysis is suggested to be a new criterion of immune state and lymphocyte malignant transformation. 相似文献

The consequence of harvesting young leaves of cassava as vegetable on the vulnerability of the crop to cassava mosaic disease (CMD) and on storage root yield was investigated using 30 cassava genotypes planted in IITA fields located in the humid forest (Port Harcourt?:?Onne), forest-savannah transition (Ibadan), southern guinea savannah (Mokwa) and northern guinea savannah (Zaria) agroecologies in Nigeria. Tender apical leaves and shoots of the cassava genotypes were removed from forty plants per cassava genotype with the same number of plants considered as control. Whitefly infestation, disease incidence (DI) and symptom severity (ISS) of the disease were assessed at monthly interval for six months and also at the ninth month after planting (MAP). Yield reduction due to this treatment was calculated as percentage harvest index (HI). Whitefly population fluctuated throughout the period of observation at all locations with higher population obtained generally for treated plants compared to control plants. Sprouting leaves of some treated genotypes were observed with severe mosaic symptoms, while corresponding control showed no mosaic symptoms. Contrarily, no remarkable difference was observed in Zaria between the mean ISS of treated and control cassava genotypes. There was a highly significant difference (P?<?0.01) in DI and ISS among cassava genotypes across all locations. Also, there was a highly significant interaction (P?<?0.01) in symptom severity between location (loc) and genotype, genotype and treatment (trt), loc and trt. Interaction between loc, genotypes and trt with regard to DI was highly significant at 2, 3 and 4 MAP, while with ISS, the interaction was highly significant all through the counting period. There was a positive relationship between DI and ISS on plants of genotypes 96/1039 and ISU. The percentage HI (27.4) of treated plants of genotype 95/0166 in Ibadan was remarkably lower than the value obtained for corresponding control (41.9) plants. Also, sharp distinction in% HI of treated (39.5) and control (43.8) ISU was observed in Onne with their respective ISS values as 3.7 and 3.2. Therefore, harvesting tender apical leaves and shoots of cassava as vegetables should be discouraged as it increases the severity of CMD infection in the regenerating shoots of cassava with attendant storage root yield reduction. 相似文献

Mitochondrial DNA evolution in the genus Equus 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Employing mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) restriction-endonuclease maps as the
basis of comparison, we have investigated the evolutionary affinities of
the seven species generally recognized as the genus Equus. Individual
species' cleavage maps contained an average of 60 cleavage sites for 16
enzymes, of which 29 were invariant for all species. Based on an average
divergence rate of 2%/Myr, the variation between species supports a
divergence of extant lineages from a common ancestor approximately 3.9 Myr
before the present. Comparisons of cleavage maps between Equus przewalskii
(Mongolian wild horse) and E. caballus (domestic horse) yielded estimates
of nucleotide sequence divergence ranging from 0.27% to 0.41%. This range
was due to intraspecific variation, which was noted only for E. caballus.
For pairwise comparisons within this family, estimates of sequence
divergence ranged from 0% (E. hemionus onager vs. E. h. kulan) to 7.8% (E.
przewalskii vs. E. h. onager). Trees constructed according to the parsimony
principle, on the basis of 31 phylogenetically informative restriction
sites, indicate that the three extant zebra species represent a
monophyletic group with E. grevyi and E. burchelli antiquorum diverging
most recently. The phylogenetic relationships of E. africanus and E.
hemionus remain enigmatic on the basis of the mtDNA analysis, although a
recent divergence is unsupported.
