Bovine Mastitis due to Prototheca zopfii: Clinical,Epidemiological and Pathological Aspects in a Brazilian Dairy Herd

The clinical, epidemiological and pathological aspects of protothecal mastitis in a Brazilian dairy herd are described. Prototheca zopfii infection was diagnosed in 11 of 121 milking cows. Clinical mastitis refractory to usual therapy was observed in 7 cows. Several environmental conditions conducive to the growth of Prototheca spp., such as wetness, muddiness and the presence of organic material, were present in the dairy. Improper milking practices and insanitary infusion of the intramammary antibiotics were also observed. Six cows with protothecal mastitis were slaughtered and the affected quarters of each cow were examined by histology and immunohistochemical staining for bovine keratin and P. zopfii. The histological lesions were characterized by interstitial infiltrates of macrophages, plasma cells and lymphocytes; algae were seen in the alveolar lumen and interstitium. The lack of a positive reaction with an antiserum against bovine keratin in the mammary alveolar epithelial layer in some affected areas suggests destruction of milk-producing tissues, which may be related to the low milk production observed. The algal organisms stained positively with a polyclonal antibody against P. zopfii.     

Effects of Maternal Exposure to Bisphenol A on Survival Rate,Reproductive Hormones and Relative Genes of Offspring Mice

This study was aimed to investigate the reproductive toxicity of bisphenol A (BPA) exposed to the mother on the offsprings mice. Forty pregnant Kunming mice were randomly divided into 4 groups, i.e. groups A, B, C and D with 10 mice in each group. Group A was the control group and the mice received conventional feeds, mice in groups B, C and D were given 50,500 and 2 500 mg/kg BW BPA in feedstuffs during the whole gestation period (from 1 d to parturition), respectively. The death rates of the offsprings were calculated every week. The offspring mice were sacrificed at 56 days of age (at puberty). The morphology of ovary and testicular tissues were observed with hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. The levels of estradiol (E₂), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), testosterone (T) in mice serum were detected with ELISA Kit. The protein levels of Bax and Bcl-2 in ovary or testicular tissues were detected with immunohistochemistry, and the StAR,CYP11a mRNA levels in testicular tissues, the AMH, Kitlg mRNA levels in ovary were measured using Real-time PCR. The results showed that exposure of BPA to the mother extremely significantly increased the mortality (P<0.01),and significantly reduced the testicular weight of offspring mice (P<0.05). Maternal exposure to BPA extremely significantly reduced the levels of T (♂) and FSH(♀) (P<0.01),and extremely significantly elevated E₂ (♀) level in offspring mice (P<0.01). BPA exposure damaged the testicular with less leydig cells and ovarian tissues with more vacuoles and less corpus granules in offspring mice. Immunohistochemistry results revealed that maternal exposure to BPA increased the Bax protein level and decreased the Bcl-2 protein level of testicular and ovary tissues in offspring mice. BPA significantly reduced the StAR mRNA expression in male offsprings (P<0.05). However, the mRNA level of CYP11a in groups B and D extremely significantly decreased while group C showed an significant elevation in male offsprings (P<0.01). The expression levels of Kitlg mRNA in groups C and D were decreased extremely significantly in female offsprings (P<0.01), the AMH mRNA expression in groups C and D increased significantly (P<0.05). The conclusion indicated that pregnant mice exposed to different doses of BPA had harmful effects on survival rate in offspring mice, and impact the reproductive hormones, proteins and genes expression.

Comparison of the Distribution of PGP9.5 and NPY in Cryptorchidism and Testicular Tumors in Dogs

The purpose of this study was to analyze the distribution and expression of peptidergic neurotransmitters protein gene product 9.5 (PGP9.5) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) in cryptorchidism and testicular tumors of dogs,compare them with normal testicular tissues of the same age,and provide reference for clinical diagnosis of malignant transformation in testicular tumors of dogs.HE staing,Masson trichrome staining,Gomori silver staining and toluidine blue staining were used to observe the tissue characteristics of reticular fibers,collagen fibers and mast cells.Immunohistochemical SP method and immunofluorescence combined with IPP were used to analyze the expression and localization of PGP9.5 and NPY in tissues.The results showed that the seminiferous epithelium of normal dog testis was composed of 4-7 layers of spermatogenic cells and Sertoli cells,and the distribution of collagen fibers and reticular fibers in interstitial tissue was sparse.The thickness of collagen fibers in the basement membrane of cryptorchidism seminiferous tubules increased,the nucleus of Sertoli concentrated at the base of seminiferous tubules,and the interstitial reticular fibers increased.The tissue structure of testicular tumor was unclear,collagen fibers and reticular fibers were irregularly distributed,and mast cells increased significantly compared with normal and cryptorchid groups.The immunofluorescence results showed that PGP9.5 was moderately positive in Leydig cells of normal testis,no significant expression in spermatogenic cells,strongly positive in Leydig cells and spermatogenic cells of cryptorchidism,and occasional expression in testicular tumors.NPY was occasionally expressed in normal testicular Leydig cells,but not in spermatogenic cells,strong positive expression in Leydig cells and seminiferous epithelium of cryptorchidism,high density and strong positive expression in interstitial vessels,and no obvious expression in testicular tumors.Immunohistochemical statistics showed that the expression of PGP9.5 and NPY in testicular tumor tissue were extremely significantly lower than that in normal group (P<0.01),while the expression of PGP9.5 and NPY in cryptorchidism group were significantly or extremely significantly increased (P<0.05;P<0.01).Therefore,the expression of PGP9.5 and NPY in cryptorchidism of dogs was increased suggesting that the cryptorchidism of dogs had a tendency to develop into a tumor,and was related to the degree of malignant transformation of tumor.     

犬隐睾及睾丸肿瘤中PGP9.5和NPY的分布比较

试验旨在分析肽能神经递质蛋白基因产物9.5（protein gene product 9.5,PGP9.5）和神经肽Y（neuropeptide Y,NPY）在犬隐睾及睾丸肿瘤中的分布和表达,并与同年龄正常睾丸组织进行比较,为认识犬睾丸肿瘤恶变临床诊断提供参考。应用HE染色、Masson三色染色、Gomori银浸染、甲苯胺蓝染色观察各组织中网状纤维、胶原纤维及肥大细胞等组织特征,采用免疫组织化学SP法及免疫荧光法结合IPP统计分析PGP9.5和NPY在组织中的表达及定位。结果显示,正常犬睾丸生精上皮由4~7层生精细胞及Sertoli细胞构成,间质组织胶原纤维和网状纤维分布稀疏。隐睾生精小管基底膜胶原纤维厚度增加,Sertoli细胞核浓缩位于生精小管基底,间质网状纤维增多。睾丸肿瘤组织结构不清晰,胶原纤维和网状纤维无规则分布,肥大细胞较正常组及隐睾组显著增多。免疫荧光定位表明,PGP9.5在正常睾丸Leydig细胞中呈中等阳性表达,生精细胞中无明显表达;隐睾Leydig细胞及生精细胞中呈强阳性表达;睾丸肿瘤中偶有表达。NPY在正常睾丸Leydig细胞中偶见阳性表达,生精细胞中无表达;隐睾Leydig细胞及生精上皮中无表达,间质小血管管壁呈高密度强阳性表达;睾丸肿瘤组织中无明显表达。免疫组化统计表明,睾丸肿瘤组织中PGP9.5和NPY较正常组极显著降低（P<0.01）,隐睾组PGP9.5和NPY表达显著或极显著增加（P<0.05;P<0.01）。因此,犬隐睾时PGP9.5及NPY的表达增高,提示犬隐睾时已有发展为肿瘤的趋势,且与肿瘤恶变程度相关。
