Stroking by humans is beneficial to the human-animal relationship and improves welfare in many species that express intraspecific allogrooming, but very few studies have looked at species like sheep that do not express such contact except around parturition. This study investigated the way lambs perceive regular human tactile contact using behavioral and physiological responses. Twenty-four lambs were reared and bucket-fed in groups of four. All were stroked daily by their familiar caregiver. At 8 weeks of age, the lambs were individually tested in their home pen but in a 1×1m open-barred pen after a 15h period of habituation to physical separation from peers while remaining in visual and auditory contact. Half of the lambs received stroking by their caregiver for 8min and half were exposed to their caregiver’s immobile presence. Heart rate and heart rate variability were recorded and analyzed by 2-min slots over the same interval based on three measures: mean heart rate value (HR), root mean square of successive differences (RMSSD) and standard deviation of all intervals measured between consecutive sinus beats (SDNN). Behavioral responses (ear postures of the lamb and time spent in contact with the familiar caregiver, on the knees of the familiar caregiver, and moving) were recorded throughout the test. Lamb HR decreased continuously while in the presence of their caregiver. Lambs being stroked showed slower HR and higher RMSSD which reflected positive emotional states compared to lambs left unstroked. All behavioral variables were highly correlated with the main component axis of the PCA analyses: the more the animals stayed in contact with their caregiver, the less they moved and the more their ears were hanging. This first component clearly differentiates lambs being stroked or not. Behavioral and physiological observations support the hypothesis that gentle physical contact with the caregiver is perceived positively by lambs. 相似文献

Coordinated expression of Ig-like inhibitory MHC class I receptors and acquisition of cytotoxic function in human CD8+ T cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Anfossi N Doisne JM Peyrat MA Ugolini S Bonnaud O Bossy D Pitard V Merville P Moreau JF Delfraissy JF Dechanet-Merville J Bonneville M Venet A Vivier E 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2004,173(12):7223-7229
MHC class I-specific inhibitory receptors are expressed by a subset of memory-phenotype CD8(+) T cells. Similar to NK cells, MHC class I-specific inhibitory receptors might subserve on T cells an important negative control that participates to the prevention of autologous damage. We analyzed here human CD8(+) T cells that express the Ig-like MHC class I-specific inhibitory receptors: killer cell Ig-like receptor (KIR) and CD85j. The cell surface expression of Ig-like inhibitory MHC class I receptors was found to correlate with an advanced stage of CD8(+) T cell maturation as evidenced by the reduced proliferative potential of KIR(+) and CD85j(+) T cells associated with their high intracytoplasmic perforin content. This concomitant regulation might represent a safety mechanism to control potentially harmful cytolytic CD8(+) T cells, by raising their activation threshold. Yet, KIR(+) and CD85j(+) T cells present distinct features. KIR(+)CD8(+) T cells are poor IFN-gamma producers upon TCR engagement. In addition, KIR are barely detectable at the surface of virus-specific T cells during the course of CMV or HIV-1 infection. By contrast, CD85j(+)CD8(+) T cells produce IFN-gamma upon TCR triggering, and represent a large fraction of virus-specific T cells. Thus, the cell surface expression of Ig-like inhibitory MHC class I receptors is associated with T cell engagement into various stages of the cytolytic differentiation pathway, and the cell surface expression of CD85j or KIR witnesses to the history of qualitatively and/or quantitatively distinct T cell activation events. 相似文献

Significance of soluble endothelial molecule E-selectin in patients with breast cancer 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Increasing evidence suggests that endothelial cells are involved in tumor growth and metastasis. E-selectin, an adhesion molecule specifically expressed or secreted by activated endothelial cells, may enhance tumor angiogenesis and the adhesion of tumor cells to endothelial cells at distant sites. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between concentrations of circulating soluble E-selectin and clinical, pathological and biological features in patients with breast cancer (BC). sE-selectin concentrations were analyzed by an ELISA method in sera from 113 patients with metastatic BC, 30 patients with primary inflammatory BC, 105 patients with primary non-inflammatory BC, 456 patients with node-negative BC, and 42 healthy controls. sE-selectin in the metastatic BC group was significantly higher than in the healthy control group. In metastatic BC, sE-selectin was significantly higher in patients with liver metastases than in patients without liver metastases. In patients with primary non-inflammatory BC, a negative correlation was found between sE-selectin concentrations and tumoral microvessel count. In overall and disease-free survival studies performed in the node-negative population (median follow-up duration 7.5 years), multivariate analyses demonstrated a prognostic value of sE-selectin and tumor size. This study suggests that endothelial activation might play a role in the development of BC. This role seems not to be related to angiogenesis. 相似文献

Breast carcinoma specific antibody selection combining phage display and immunomagnetic cell sorting
Mazuet C Lerouge D Poul MA Blin N 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》2006,348(2):550-559
To discover new specific antibodies directed against disseminated carcinoma cells in breast cancer patients, a strategy combining single-chain variable fragment (scFv) phage display and immunomagnetic cell sorting was developed. A selection model, in which ErbB2-expressing breast carcinoma SKBR3 cells are spiked into a 50-fold excess of lymphocytes, was setup. Selection conditions, optimized using the previously characterized ErbB2-specific F5 phage scFv, led to an outstanding phage enrichment yield of 25,000 after only one round. This protocol applied to human nai ve and synthetic phage display antibody libraries led to the selection, in only two rounds, of individual scFv clones (43 out of 46 tested) specific for non-epithelial carcinoma antigens expressed on SKBR3 cells. This strategy is fully applicable to metastatic cells in effusions from breast carcinoma patients and shall lead to the discovery of immunotools crucial for novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. 相似文献

Betulinic Acid,The First Lupane‐Type Triterpenoid Isolated from Both a Phomopsis sp. and Its Host Plant Diospyros carbonaria Benoist 下载免费PDF全文

Following a biological screening using a dengue replicon virus‐cell‐based assay, Diospyros carbonaria AcOEt extract was investigated, affording six known lupane‐type triterpenoids endowed with anti‐DENV‐2 NS5 polymerase activity. The study of the associated microbial community of this species permitted us to identify 38 endophytes belonging to five different orders. Nine out of these 38 strains showed significant activity on the dengue replicon assay. The chemical investigation of the most active one, Phomopsis sp. SNB‐LAP1‐7‐32, led to the isolation of betulinic acid, an anti‐viral secondary metabolite isolated previously from the host plant. This result is the first example of a lupane‐type triterpenoid isolated from both an endophyte and its host plant. Its presence in the Phomopsis strain may result from gene transfer and/or specific niche selection. 相似文献

Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) is mitogenic for the human breast cancer cell line MCF-7; here we investigate some of the signaling pathways subserving this activity. FGF-2 stimulation of MCF-7 cells resulted in a global increase of intracellular tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins, particularly FGF receptor substrate-2, the protooncogene product Src and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) cascade. A major increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation of a 30-kDa protein species was also found. This protein was identified as cyclin D2 by mass spectrometry after trypsin digestion. Immunoprecipitation of cyclin D2 and immunoblotting with anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies confirmed that the tyrosine phosphorylation of cyclin D2 was indeed induced by FGF-2 stimulation. In addition, pharmacological inhibition of Src (with herbimycin A and PP2), and of the MAP kinase cascade (with PD98059), confirmed that Src activity is required for the FGF-2-induced phosphorylation of cyclin D2 whereas MAP kinase activity is not. Thus, tyrosine phosphorylation of cyclin D2 may be a key regulatory target for FGF-2 signaling. 相似文献
