Background
Pseudorabies virus (PRV) is an alphaherpesviruses whose native host is pig. PRV infection mainly causes signs of central nervous system disorder in young pigs, and respiratory system diseases in the adult. 相似文献3.
Background
Observations were made on the prevalence of onchocerciasis and Onchocercal Skin Diseases (OSD); frequency of occurrence and anatomical distribution of OSD in the Hawal River Valley, an established onchocerciasis endemic focus in north-eastern Nigeria.Methods
Symptoms of OSD were diagnosed in 5 844 subjects using Rapid Assessment Method (RAM) while 1 479 of the subjects chosen from alternate households had their skin biopsies examined for active microfilariae of Onchocerca volvulus. Also, Focal Group Discussions (FGD) were conducted at the Health District levels.Results
O. volvulus was recorded in (19.0%) and OSD in (43.8%) of the subjects. The Mantel-Haenszel test for linear association showed a close agreement between onchocerciasis prevalence and the rate of OSD (χ2 = 3.93; p < 0.05). The various forms of OSD occurred in the order: CPOD (17.7%), APOD (9.9%), DPM (9.0%), LOD (7.0%) and ATR (3.1%). The overall frequency of occurrence of various symptoms of OSD on different anatomical locations showed the locations in descending order of occurrence as lower limbs (24.6%), upper limbs (21.3%), buttocks (19.9%), shoulder & neck (19.1%), abdomen and trunk (11.3%), backside (10.6), and 'other' sites (7.5%). The Focal Group Discussion (FGD) revealed the most worrisome consequences of OSD as social isolation of victims (31.3%), shame and low self esteem (22.7%) and high cost of medication (15.6%).Conclusion
It is recommended that Onchocerciasis control programmes in the Hawal River Valley and any other focus with high incidence of OSD should incorporate an aspect that would address the anxiety and depression caused by various OSD lesions since they carry lots of psycho-social implications. This would increase acceptance and compliance of the target population. The classification criteria of onchocerciasis endemicity should be based on either or both of the O. volvulus and onchocercal skin disease burden of any community and no longer on O. volvulus parasitic infection rate alone. 相似文献4.
Degradation of nuclei in epidermal and guard cells of pea leaves was induced by NaCN. Guard cells were considerably more resistant to CN- than epidermal cells. CN--induced nucleus degradation in guard cells was accelerated by illumination. The effect of illumination was negligible in epidermal cells that, unlike guard cells, do not contain chloroplasts. These data may indicate a role of chloroplasts in CN--induced cell death. CN--induced nucleus degradation in epidermal cells was retarded by antioxidants (butylated hydroxytoluene and vitamin E). The effect of CN- in guard cells was largely removed by vitamin E. Salicylic acid, an inhibitor of catalase and ascorbate peroxidase, induced 100% degradation of nuclei in epidermal cells but did not significantly affect nuclei in guard cells. CN--induced inhibition of catalase and peroxidase is assumed to lead to generation and accumulation of reactive oxygen species inducing apoptosis. Like mitochondria, which play an important role in animal cell apoptosis, chloroplasts may take part in apoptosis in plant cells. 相似文献

Proteoliposomes containing oxygen-evolving particles of Photosystem II and associated with a planar phospholipid membrane generate a transmembrane electric potential difference (DeltaPsi) induced by a laser flash. With direct electrometrical technique, it was shown that the direction of the electrical field ("minus" inside the proteoliposome) corresponds to acceptor side of the Photosystem II complex facing inside and donor side facing outside of the liposomes. In addition to the fast phase (tau < 0.1 microsec) of the DeltaPsi generation due to electron transfer between YZ of the water-oxidizing complex and the primary plastoquinone QA, a phase with tau approximately 120 microsec and maximum amplitude approximately 30% of the amplitude of the fast phase was observed under the first flash in proteoliposomes containing potassium ferricyanide, which is known as an oxidant of the non-heme iron (Fenh) on the acceptor side of Photosystem II. This additional phase was absent under the second laser flash but was completely restored after 5 min dark adaptation. The phase of the photoelectric response with tau approximately 120 microsec is probably due to electron transfer from QA to Fenh(III) and likely includes a component related to H+ transfer. 相似文献

In cell suspension of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans B-1388, oxidation of CO as the only energy source is associated with reduction of SO42-. After a 2-h incubation of cells in 8% CO, 81% of the gas is converted. Oxidation of 1 mole CO results in formation of 0.23 mole H2S. Intracellular ATP content increases from 2.5 (control) to 8.3 nmoles/mg (during CO conversion). Dinitrophenol inhibits sulfate reduction and CO oxidation. CO dehydrogenase was detected in cytoplasmic and membrane cell fractions (59 and 34%, respectively). 相似文献
