In the Koitajoki River, Eastern Finland, there exists a self-sustaining population of river-spawning densely rakered whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus pallasi). The population has been classified as near-threatened due to overexploitation and possible hybridization with the lake-spawning sparsely rakered whitefish form. Thus, knowledge of habitat use, movements, and migrations is important for threat assessment and management decisions. We employed conventional tagging and acoustic telemetry to provide information on movements and home range of the Koitajoki River whitefish. We tagged mature individuals at their spawning areas and followed fish movements by tag recoveries and continuously recording fixed receiving stations. The maximum movement distances were 40–50?km both upstream and downstream from the releasing site. There were indications of a clear seasonal migration pattern and spawning-site fidelity; riverine habitats were mainly occupied for spawning and overwintering, while feeding and growth mainly took place in lacustrine environments within several lakes of the river system. Due to their migratory nature, whitefish is vulnerable to environmental disturbances and overfishing in a large geographic area. 相似文献

Entacapone was reacted with phosphorous oxychloride in dry pyridine to yield a phosphate ester. The phosphate promoiety increased aqueous solubility of the parent drug by more than 1700- and 20-fold at pH 1.2 and 7.4, respectively. The phosphate ester provides adequate stability (t(1/2) = 2227 h; pH 7.4) towards chemical hydrolysis, and allowed for release of the parent drug via enzymatic hydrolysis in liver homogenate. 相似文献

This paper has two aims. First, it reports the findings of a study on the effects of low-frequency magnetic fields on reproduction. Second, it serves as an example of an attempt to replicate the results of an experimental study in an independent laboratory and discusses some of the problems of replication studies. To try to replicate the findings of a study reporting increased resorptions (fetal loss) in mice exposed to 20 kHz magnetic fields with sawtooth waveform and to study the possible effects of 50 Hz sinusoidal fields, pregnant mice were exposed to magnetic fields from day 0 to 18 of pregnancy, 24 h per day. The flux densities of the vertical magnetic fields were 15 μT (peak-to-peak) at 20 kHz and 13 or 130 μT (root mean square) at 50 Hz. Two strains of animals were used: CBA/S mice imported from the laboratory reporting the original observations, and a closely related strain CBA/Ca. The CBA/S mice were cleaned of pathogenic microbes and parasites before they were imported into our laboratory. The magnetic field exposures did not affect resorption rate in CBA/Ca mice. In CBA/S, the frequency of resorptions was higher in the exposed mice than in the control group. However, the increase was not significantly different from either the no-effect hypothesis or the results of the original study we were attempting to replicate. Differences between the two studies and difficulties in interpreting the results are discussed. It is concluded that the results tend more to support than argue against increased resorptions in CBA/S mice exposed to the 20 kHz magnetic field. The results demonstrate that animal strain is an important variable in bioelectromagnetics research: even closely related strains may show different responses to magnetic field exposure.

Recent studies indicate that astrocytes may be the primary target of secreted amyloid-beta 1-42 peptides, with the neurotoxicity representing a secondary response to astrocytic stress. Our purpose was to clarify the astrocytic stress response induced by amyloid-beta peptides in human and rat astrocytes. Human amyloid-beta 1-42 peptides and fibrils induced the appearance of cytoplasmic vacuoles in normal human astrocytes (NHA) and CCFsttg1 astrocytoma cells. Vacuoles appeared 9-12h after the amyloid-beta exposure and remained present for several days. Rat primary neonatal astrocytes showed similar but less prominent vacuolar response. Human amyloid-beta peptides 1-16, 1-28, 10-20, 17-21 and 25-35 did not cause vacuole formation. Electron microscopic observations revealed large endocytic vacuoles containing fibrillar amyloid material. Stress marker analysis did not show any increase in protein levels of HSP70, HSP90, GRP78 and GRP94. However, the protein level of clusterin/apoJ, a secreted chaperone, was strongly increased both in NHA and CCFsttg1 astrocytes. Endocytic response associated with the accumulation of clusterin/apoJ protein suggests that clusterin/apoJ has a role in the clearance of amyloid-beta peptides. 相似文献

Predation of perch on vendace larvae: diet composition in an oligotrophic lake and digestion time of the larvae 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The diet of perch Perca fluviatilis was studied to reveal possible predation on vendace Coregonus albula larvae in an oligotrophic lake. Perch diet changed with the size of the fish: small perch ate mainly zooplankton and the diet shifted more to benthic invertebrates and fishes in larger perch. There were also annual and spatial differences in the diet, probably reflecting differences in the availability of prey animals. Perch predation on vendace larvae was only observed in the area with high availability of the larvae. The result suggested strengthened predation when the density of the larvae increases. According to bioenergetics modelling, the perch population increased natural mortality of vendace larvae only marginally. Food intake of spawning female perch was slightly reduced, whereas spawning males fed similarly to non-spawning males. Hence, the spawning period of perch was only a minor refuge for vendace larvae. Laboratory experiments of perch digestion rate demonstrated that, due to rapid digestion of the small fish larvae, diet sampling interval should not be >2 h in the field. 相似文献
