Gastrointestinal motility disorders are a serious problem in both veterinary and human medicine and may represent a dysfunction of the neural, muscular or pacemaker components (interstitial cells of Cajal) of bowel control. The interstitial cells of Cajal are considered to be the pacemakers and mediators of certain forms of neurotransmission in the gastrointestinal tract. These cells have been implicated, either primarily or secondarily, in the pathogenesis of gastrointestinal disease processes in which there is a prominent element of disturbance to intestinal motility. In the horse, their involvement has been implicated in large intestinal obstructive colic and grass sickness (equine dysautonomia). This review highlights the properties of the interstitial cells of Cajal and the role these cells play in orchestrating gastrointestinal motility patterns. In addition, it examines their role in intestinal motility disorders and summarises our current understanding of their importance in the equine gastrointestinal tract. 相似文献

SUMMARY Cortisol and testosterone were measured by radioimmunoassay in plasma samples from race horses. None of 6 stressed male horses had Iow cortisol levels but testosterone levels (0.81 ± 0.15 nmol/l) were significantly lower than in healthy horses (1.86 ± 0.31 nmol/l). The conclusion was made that adrenocortical insufficiency is not a common association of stress in race horses. The reduction in testosterone levels is probably a nonspecific response similar to that seen in other species. 相似文献

The salivary glands of Aedes stimulans (Walker) are the source of an antigen which produces typical bite reactions in men and laboratory rabbits. If the main salivary duct is cut, the reaction is not produced when the mosquito bites. Lack of saliva does not affect the intake or movement of blood into the mid-gut, nor does it prevent the development of eggs. The presence of ain a-nesthetic component in saliva is suggested. 相似文献

A model simulating acute-compressive spinal cord trauma at the second lumbar spinal cord segment (100 g, 300 seconds) was used to evaluate the efficacy of a vehicle control, methylprednisolone sodium succinate (MPSS), and a 21-aminosteroid compound (U74389G). Dogs were allocated into one of five treatment groups (A to E) using ultrasonographic determination of spinal cord diameters to ensure even distribution of spinal cord diameters among the treatment groups. Initial dosages of the vehicle control (A), methylprednisolone (30 mg/kg of body weight) (B), or U74389G (30 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg, or 10 mg/kg of body weight) (C, D, or E, respectively) were administered intravenously 30 minutes after trauma. Dosages were reduced by one-half for 2 and 6 hour treatments. Then every 4 hours for 42 hours, dosages were reduced one-third and one-sixth from the original dose of methylprednisolone and U74389G, respectively. Neurological examinations were performed daily for 21 days. Histopathological examination of the traumatized spinal cord showed malacic and degenerative lesions. Although significant differences in some portions of the neurological and histopathologic examinations were observed, clinical efficacy for MPSS and U74389G could not be established in this model. 相似文献
