水产动物诱食剂的研究进展

在水产养殖中 ,很多饲料投放后未被动物采食就沉入了水底 ,不但浪费了饲料 ,而且还污染了水质和提高了饲料成本 ,而水产动物诱食剂可以缓解这些问题。     

土耳其斯坦东毕吸虫肌动蛋白基因的克隆及其序列分析

目的利用RT-PCR和RACE技术克隆土耳其斯坦东毕吸虫肌动蛋白基因全长序列并进行序列分析.方法根据日本血吸虫和曼氏血吸虫肌动蛋白基因的保守区设计引物,利用RT-PCR扩增出土耳其斯坦东毕吸虫的肌动蛋白基因的大片段,再结合RACE技术分别得到肌动蛋白的3＇端和5＇端,将三部分序列拼接后获得肌动蛋白基因的全长cDNA序列并进行序列分析.结果成功克隆了土耳其斯坦东毕吸虫肌动蛋白的全长cDNA并提交GenBank,登录号为DQ017265,核酸序列比对表明东毕吸虫肌动蛋白基因的核苷酸序列和日本血吸虫、曼氏血吸虫的同源性分别为90%和91%.结论土耳其斯坦东毕吸虫肌动蛋白的全长cDNA的克隆为进一步表达及其生物学性能的分析提供了理论基础.     

苓桂术甘汤对肉鸡腹水综合征的防治作用

将15日龄艾维茵肉鸡分成5组,一组在常温(21±1)℃下饲养,作为正常对照组(N);其余4组在低温(11±1)℃下饲养以诱发腹水综合征,其中模型对照组(C)不给任何药物,维生素组(V)饮水中添加VC(0.5 g/L)和VE(0.1 g/L),2个试验组(T1和T2)分别给予不同剂量(0.4和0.8 mL/kg bw)的苓桂术甘汤。结果显示,C组的腹水发病率、腹水心脏指数(AHI)、红细胞压积(PCV)、红细胞数、血红蛋白(Hb)及丙二醛(MDA)含量、血清α-羟丁酸脱氢酶(-αHBDH)、谷草转氨酶(GOT)和谷丙转氨酶(GPT)均显著高于N组;而3种抗氧化酶[超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px)]的活性则显著降低;2个试验组及V组的上述检测指数都得到明显改善,表明苓桂术甘汤能增强肉鸡的抗氧化能力,具有防治肉鸡腹水综合征的作用。     

奶牛瘤胃酸中毒的发病机理与营养调控

瘤胃酸中毒主要是由于饲喂大量的极易发酵的碳水化合物,引起瘤胃内酸度升高,从而导致机体功能紊乱的一种营养代谢病。发病快、病程短、病症重、死亡率高,给奶牛养殖造成严重的损失。本文主要就奶牛瘤胃酸中毒的发病机制及预防的研究进展作了简要综述。合理调配饲料,日粮中添加缓冲物质,调控瘤胃内微生物区系,加强饲养管理等手段的综合运用可有效的防止瘤胃酸中毒的发生。     

川西北高寒沙地不同年限高山柳林下优势植物碳、氮、磷生态化学计量特征

通过采集川西北高寒沙地不同年限(6、18、24年)高山柳林下3种优势植被藏沙蒿、裂叶独活和镰荚棘豆,分别测定分析3种植被叶片、根部C、N、P化学计量特征变化特征。结果表明:不同年限高山柳林下植被C、N、P含量及其比值间存在显著差异且呈现出不同变化趋势。林下植被C含量整体下降;叶N含量呈上升趋势,根N含量随年限增长而下降;除藏沙蒿外,林下植被P含量变化不显著;C∶N变化范围为1.92~12.86;C∶P为29.18~196.88;不同年限高山柳林下植被N∶P间虽存在差异,但均表现出主要受到P限制,表明该区域植被生长主要受P限制,应注意P养分的适当补充。     

The effect of maternal obesity on fatty acid transporter expression and lipid metabolism in the full‐term placenta of lean breed swine

This study was conducted to evaluate the influence of back‐fat thickness (BF), at mating of sows, on the maternal and newborn circulating lipids, expression of placental fatty acids (FA) transporters and lipid accumulation in placenta. Full‐term placentas were obtained by vaginal delivery from BFI (9–14 mm; n = 37), BFII (15–19 mm; n = 43) and BFIII (20–27 mm; n = 38) sows according to BF at mating, and frozen placental sections were analysed for fat accumulation. Blood samples were collected from the sows of day 105 pregnancy and from cord blood at delivery. mRNA and protein expression levels were evaluated with real‐time RT‐PCR and Western blotting. Our results demonstrated that BFII females had significantly increased litter weight and placental efficiency, decreased maternal triglyceride (TG) and non‐esterified fatty acids (NEFA) levels, decreased maternal IL‐6, TNFα and leptin levels compared to BFIII females (p < .05). BFIII sows were associated with significantly decreased newborn TG levels, increased newborn glucose, IL‐6 and TNFα levels compared to BFI or BFII sows (p < .05). BFI and BFII females had significantly decreased placental TG, NEFA and cholesterol (CHOL) contents compared to BFIII females (p < .05). Moreover, decreased CD36, FATP1, FABP4, and FABP1 mRNA and protein and FATP4 protein expression, and increased LPL activity were also observed in BFIII group compared with BFII group (p < .05). PPARγ mRNA and protein and lipogenic genes such as SREBP‐1c, ACSL1, ACCα, FAS and SCD mRNA expression were downregulated or upregulated, respectively, in the placentas of BFIII sows compared to BFI or BFII sows (p < .05). Overall, this study demonstrated that there is no advantage, in terms of litter live size, litter weight and placental FA transport and metabolism, in performing the mating of sows with BF>19 mm.
