Failed oocyte activation has been observed in unexplained infertile (UI) and asthenoteratozoospermic (AT) men. The deficiency of phospholipase C‐zeta (PLCζ) could be a possible reason for such failures and has not been studied yet. We investigated the expression and localization of PLCζ protein in the sperms of patients with UI and AT conditions. The relationships between PLCζ‐related parameters with male age, sperm characteristics, DNA integrity, and cellular maturity were assessed. Semen samples were collected from fertile (n = 40), UI (n = 40), and AT (n = 40) men. Subsequently, semen analysis, DNA fragmentation, hyaluronic acid‐binding ability, and PLCζ level along with its distribution were evaluated using computer‐assisted sperm analyzer, sperm chromatin structure assay (SCSA), hyaluronic acid‐binding assay (HBA), western blot analysis and immunofluorescence microscopy, respectively. Unlike SCSA, the values of HBA, and PLCζ expression were significantly reduced in UI and AT patients compared to fertile men, whereas no significant differences were observed among the experimental groups in terms of PLCζ localization patterns. The regression analysis also showed that HBA is the only variable associated with PLCζ levels. Furthermore, the correlation of male age with PLCζ localization in postacrosomal, equatorial, and acrosomal+postacrosomal+equatorial (A+PA+E) patterns, as well as the relation of normal morphology, with the (A+PA+E) pattern, remained in the regression model. Our findings indicated that reduced PLCζ level along with the increased DNA fragmentation and impaired maturation may be possible etiologies of decreased fertilization in the studied subjects. 相似文献

Cell-cell communication within the follicle involves many signaling molecules, and this process may be mediated by secretion and uptake of exosomes that contain several bioactive molecules including extra-cellular miRNAs. Follicular fluid and cells from individual follicles of cattle were grouped based on Brilliant Cresyl Blue (BCB) staining of the corresponding oocytes. Both Exoquick precipitation and differential ultracentrifugation were used to separate the exosome and non-exosomal fraction of follicular fluid. Following miRNA isolation from both fractions, the human miRCURY LNA™ Universal RT miRNA PCR array system was used to profile miRNA expression. This analysis found that miRNAs were present in both exosomal and non-exosomal fraction of bovine follicular fluid. We found 25 miRNAs differentially expressed (16 up and 9 down) in exosomes and 30 miRNAs differentially expressed (21 up and 9 down) in non-exosomal fraction of follicular fluid in comparison of BCB- versus BCB+ oocyte groups. Expression of selected miRNAs was detected in theca, granulosa and cumulus oocyte complex. To further explore the potential roles of these follicular fluid derived extra-cellular miRNAs, the potential target genes were predicted, and functional annotation and pathway analysis revealed most of these pathways are known regulators of follicular development and oocyte growth. In order to validate exosome mediated cell-cell communication within follicular microenvironment, we demonstrated uptake of exosomes and resulting increase of endogenous miRNA level and subsequent alteration of mRNA levels in follicular cells in vitro. This study demonstrates for the first time, the presence of exosome or non-exosome mediated transfer of miRNA in the bovine follicular fluid, and oocyte growth dependent variation in extra-cellular miRNA signatures in the follicular environment. 相似文献

Liver ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury is a complex phenomenon that may cause local as well as remote organ injuries. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) along with many pro- and anti- inflammatory cytokines are implicated in the development of organ injury. The renal functional, histological, oxidative stress and inflammatory indices were studied during a short and a longer period of liver IR. Rats were subjected to either sham operation or 90 min partial liver ischemia followed by 4 or 24 h of reperfusion. Serum ALT, AST, ALK and LDH levels, BUN and creatinine, renal MDA level, SOD and catalase activities were evaluated as well as serum IL-6 and IL-10 concentrations along with renal histological evaluation. Ninety minutes liver ischemia /4 h reperfusion caused an increase in BUN and renal MDA levels and a decrease in SOD and catalase activities. It also caused an increase in serum IL-6 and IL-10 levels. 24 h liver reperfusion resulted in a reduction in BUN levels and lower oxidative damages demonstrated by a decrease in renal MDA levels and an increase in renal SOD and catalase activities comparing to 4 h reperfusion group. Evaluations indicated improvement in histology such as less cytoplasmic vacuolation and lower tubular debris. Serum inflammatory indices (IL-6 and IL-10 levels) were also reduced. This study showed that liver IR damage causes renal injury including functional, inflammatory and oxidative status changes. The remote kidney damage was then improved by continuing reperfusion from 4 to 24 h. 相似文献

Uric acid is considered as an antioxidant in the blood. Despite its proposed protective properties, elevated plasma uric acid has been associated with hypertension in a variety of disorders. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the increase of arterial blood pressure and the changes in serum uric acid, measured during the gradual development of experimental hypertension in deoxycorticosterone (DOCA)-salt-treated rats. Blood pressure was monitored by tail-cuff method, urinary and plasma uric acid was measured by autoanalyzer during the induction of hypertension in 1-, 2-, 3- and 4-week DOCA-salt-treated Sprague-Dawley rats. Vitamin E (200 mg/kg/day/gavage) was co-administered with DOCA-salt for 4 weeks. From the first week of DOCA-salt treatment, rats exhibited marked increases in blood pressure. DOCA-salt treatment also resulted in a significant increase in serum uric acid and a significant decrease in urinary uric acid at the end of the first week. These changes in serum and urinary uric acid remained until the 4th week of DOCA-salt treatment but blood pressure continued to increase throughout the study. Vitamin E treatment increased urinary excretion of uric acid and decreased blood pressure and serum uric acid in DOCA-salt-treated rats. These data suggest that enhanced serum uric acid may be a contributing factor to the onset of hypertension in DOCA-salt-treated rats. A uricosuric effect is suggested for vitamin E in the treatment of hypertension. 相似文献

Oxidative stress‐induced renal telomere shortening as a mechanism of cyclosporine‐induced nephrotoxicity 下载免费PDF全文

Due to the association of oxidative stress and telomere shortening, it was aimed in the present study to investigate the possibility whether cyclosporine‐A exerts its nephrotoxic side effects via induction of oxidative stress‐induced renal telomere shortening and senescent phenotype in renal tissues of rats. Renal oxidative stress markers, 8‐hydroxydeoxyguanosine, malondialdehyde, and protein carbonyl groups were measured by standard methods. Telomere length and telomerase activity were also evaluated in kidney tissue samples. Results showed that cyclosporine‐A treatment significantly (P < 0.05) enhanced renal malondialdehyde, 8‐hydroxydeoxyguanosine, and protein carbonyl groups levels, decreased renal telomere length, and deteriorated renal function compared with the controls. Renal telomerase activity was not affected by cyclosporine‐A. Renal telomere length could be considered as an important parameter of both oxidative stress and kidney function. Telomere shortening and accelerated kidney aging may be caused by cyclosporine‐induced oxidative stress, indicating the potential mechanism of cyclosporine‐induced nephrotoxicity. 相似文献
