From 1995 to 1999, two species of endemic Hawaiian thrushes, `Oma`o (Myadestes obscurus) and Puaiohi (M. palmeri), were captive‐reared and re‐introduced into their historic range in Hawai`i by The Peregrine Fund, in collaboration with the U.S. Geological Survey–Biological Resources Division (BRD) and the Hawai`i State Department of Land and Natural Resources. This paper describes the management techniques that were developed (collection of wild eggs, artificial incubation, hand‐rearing, captive propagation, and release) with the non‐endangered surrogate species, the `Oma`o; techniques that are now being used for recovery of the endangered Puaiohi. In 1995 and 1996, 29 viable `Oma`o eggs were collected from the wild. Of 27 chicks hatched, 25 were hand‐reared and released into Pu`u Wa`awa`a Wildlife Reserve. Using the techniques developed for the `Oma`o, a captive propagation and release program was initiated in 1996 to aid the recovery of the endangered Puaiohi. Fifteen viable Puaiohi eggs were collected from the wild (1996–1997) to establish a captive breeding flock to produce birds for re‐introduction. These Puaiohi reproduced for the first time in captivity in 1998 (total Puaiohi chicks reared in captivity 1996–1998 = 41). In 1999, 14 captive‐bred Puaiohi were re‐introduced into the Alaka`i Swamp, Kaua`i. These captive‐bred birds reproduced and fledged seven chicks in the wild after release. This is the first endangered passerine recovery program using this broad spectrum of management techniques (collection of wild eggs, artificial incubation, hand‐rearing, captive‐breeding, and release) in which re‐introduced birds survived and bred in the wild. Long‐term population monitoring will be published separately [BRD, in preparation]. Zoo Biol 19:263–277, 2000. © 2000 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献

The segmentation of scenes of fixed tissue sections for quantitative histopathology is the crucial step for further image processing. Different segmentation methods for the separation of nuclei, nucleoli and whole cells in methacrylate-embedded sections of rat liver were investigated. Reasonable segmentation results were obtained using a contrast-enhanced polar-coordinate transformation to distinguish nuclei, a compactness algorithm to distinguish nucleoli and a skeletonization algorithm to delineate cells when a priori information on the morphometric and photometric properties of the liver tissue was included. 相似文献

Transition from G(2) to M phase, a cell cycle checkpoint, is regulated by the Cdc2-cyclin B1 complex. Here, we report that persistent infection with Borna disease virus (BDV), a noncytolytic RNA virus infecting the central nervous system, results in decelerated proliferation of infected host cells due to a delayed G(2)-to-M transition. Persistent BDV-infected rat fibroblast cells showed reduced proliferation compared to uninfected cells. In pull-down assays we observed an interaction of the viral nucleoprotein with the Cdc2-cyclin B1 complex. Transfection of the viral nucleoprotein but not of the phosphoprotein also results in decelerated proliferation. This phenomenon was found in BDV-susceptible primary rat fibroblast cells and also in primary mouse cells, which are not susceptible to BDV infection. This is the first evidence that the noncytolytic Borna disease virus can manipulate host cell functions via interaction of the viral nucleoprotein with mitotic entry regulators. BDV preferentially infects and persists in nondividing neurons. The present report could give an explanation for this selective choice of host cell by BDV. 相似文献

To study the suspected mechanism of the interaction between tobacco smoking and asbestos exposure in the modulation of cancer risk, the mutagenic potential of asbestos in combination with the tobacco smoke carcinogen benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) was examined in vivo in the rat lung. B[a]P was administered intratracheally in one set of experiments, or by two daily intraperitoneal injections in another set of experiments, to lambdalacI transgenic rats, together with 1, 2 or 4 x 2 mg amosite in one experiment. In the first experiment, the combined action of amosite and B[a]P caused a synergistic (superadditive) increase of mutation frequency in the lung, as compared to groups treated only with asbestos or B[a]P. In the second experiment, i.p. treatment with B[a]P did not significantly alter the mutation frequency induced by amosite, neither after 4 nor after 16 weeks of exposure. The B[a]P-DNA adduct levels were unaffected by amosite co-treatment in both experiments. We assume that the synergistic increase of mutation frequency after intratracheal treatment was due to the mitogenic activities of B[a]P and of amosite. In conclusion, our findings indicate that a weak and delayed mutagenic effect of amosite in rat lung observed in another study was strongly enhanced by the concomitant action of B[a]P. The striking enhancement effect of B[a]P may provide a basis for understanding the suspected synergism of smoking on asbestos carcinogenesis. 相似文献

The fine structure of the dorsal giant fibre septa of earthworm (Lumbricus terrestris and Eisenia foetida) was studied by thin sectioning. E-PTA, BIUL and ZIO impregnation were carried out to characterize the various membrane specializations found. A septum, which is formed by two axon membranes only ca. 7 nm apart, is a heterogeneous structure showing a number of different specializations (intermediate junctions, dense projection-like humps, septate regions, vesicles quite often associated with a widened intercellular gap and membrane thickening). Septal areas referred to as septal complexes are of particular interest. They comprise up to 20% of septal cross-sections and are characterized by membrane appositions (diameter ca. 25 nm) which bridge the septal gap, protrude 16-25 nm into the respective axoplasms, and form a more or less hexagonal array with a centre-to-centre spacing of ca. 33 nm (ca. 29 nm after E-EPTA treatment) in en face sections. We interpret the septal complexes as gap junctions, i.e. sites of electronic coupling, and emphasize their unusually large dimension. The vesicles found at the septum could not be stained by ZIO treatment. 相似文献
