猪原始生殖嵴细胞(PGCs)建系因素的研究

从五指山猪(WSZP)近交系第8～13代培育群中，先后选用21头5～10月龄青年母猪，分别于授精后25～30d采集胎儿106个，进行原始生殖嵴(PGCs)细胞分离、培养等建系技术研究。以DMEM F10(1:1)为基础培养液，按添加或不添加生长因子，将培养液分为A、B、C3种，并以STO细胞作饲养层，在38℃、5.0％CO2和湿润的气相中进行培养建系。结果获得胚胎生殖嵴细胞(EG)细胞系6个细胞株，其中1个EG细胞株传至11代、2个传至5代、1个传至4代、2个传至3代冻存。并进行了AKP染色、体外分化、冷冻-解冻复苏和嵌合体制作等鉴定研究。研究发现：不同胚龄对EG细胞建系具有一定影响，不同培养液对EG细胞建系效果不同，STO细胞饲养层的质量是建株、传代、冷冻-解冻复苏的关键因素之一。EG细胞系的初步建立，为今后筛选进入种系的EG细胞系、实施体外基因操作提供了可能。

日粮维生素E水平对后备种母鸡生长发育的影响

研究日粮维生素E对后备种母鸡体形、肌肉和生殖器官生长发育的影响。发现日粮维生素E水平对20周龄后备种母鸡的体重、体重均匀度、胸骨长度、胫长度、屠宰率、半净膛率、全净膛率、胸肌率、腿肌率、翅重率、腹脂率、冠高度和卵巢重量没有显著影响(P>0 05 ), 但高剂量维生素E日粮显著增加输卵管的长度和重量(P<0 05)。结果表明日粮高维生素E水平(180mg/kg) 可加速20周龄后备种母鸡输卵管的生长发育。     

出血性大肠杆菌O157eae-stx1/2B融合基因的构建和表达

构建表达eae和stx1／2B的融合基因，克隆eae基因的C端280个氨基酸残基(Int280)基因部分，以正确地阅读框定向插入到含有stx1／2B融合基因的质粒，构建重组质粒，将其转化于BL21(DE3)，用IPTG进行诱导表达，经SDS—PAGE电泳检测，该融合蛋白获得了高效表达。薄层扫描分析表明：目的蛋白表达量占菌体总蛋白含量的50．67％。由于该融合蛋白由eae、stx1B、stx2B等三部分抗原组成，可刺激机体产生针对紧密素和StxB的抗体，在EHEC O157亚单位疫苗设计或单克隆抗体抗制备中具有重要价值。     

抗附红细胞体有效药物的筛选

以PCR检测附红细胞体呈现阳性，且镜检染虫率达909／5以上的猪血样为研究对象，选择几种附红细胞体敏感的药物(血虫净，附红净，庆大霉素，博士914，土霉素，三毒清，红弓链914，附红120，红弓链克，乌金土霉素)和对支原体敏感的恩诺沙星，对立克次氏体敏感的红霉素，采用两种方法进行体外药效试验。附红净对附红细胞体的作用效果最明显，而庆大霉素对附红细胞体基本无效，其他药物对附红细胞体也有一定杀灭效果。     

铜对体外仔猪软骨细胞增殖和细胞骨架的影响

体外分离、培养仔猪关节软骨细胞,在细胞培养液中分别添加铜0、7.8、15.6、31.2、62.5μmol/L。结果表明,软骨细胞在4种铜浓度中可存活并增殖,但随铜浓度的增加,其存活率、增殖率、3H-TdR掺入率有明显的差异,且能破坏软骨细胞骨架。培养液中添加铜31.2μmol/L,对软骨细胞的增殖作用最强,增殖率、3H-TdR掺入数显著高于对照组(P<0.01),软骨细胞形态及骨架均正常。表明31.2μmol/L铜浓度是促进体外软骨细胞增殖的最适浓度。     

The IMPDH inhibitors,ribavirin and mycophenolic acid,inhibit peste des petits ruminants virus infection

Peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) causes highly contagious diseases in domestic and particular wild small ruminants, leading to substantial economic loss. The development of effective and cheap antiviral medications shall help to circumvent this emerging burden. In this study, we found that ribavirin, a competitive inosine-5’-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) inhibitor, significantly inhibits the replication of PPRV. As IMPDH is a key enzyme in purine nucleotide synthesis, supplementation of exogenous guanosine attenuate the anti-PPRV effect of ribavirin. Interestingly, an uncompetitive IMPDH inhibitor, mycophenolic acid (MPA), exerted more potent antiviral effect again PPRV. Similarly, this effect was largely restored upon supplementation of guanosine. Thus, we have demonstrated that the IMPDH inhibitors ribavirin and MPA combat PPRV infection through purine nucleotide depletion. Because both regimens have been widely used in the clinic for treating viral infection or organ rejection in transplantation patients for decades, respectively, repurposing these existing safe and cheap medications may provide a new avenue for combating PPRV infection.     

Effect of gut stress induced by oxidized wheat gluten on the growth performance,gut morphology and oxidative states of broilers

This study was to investigate the effect of oxidized wheat gluten (OG) on growth performance, gut morphology and its oxidative states of broilers. One hundred and eighty‐day‐old male broilers (10 chicks/pen) were randomly allocated into three dietary treatments: control diet (CON), diet with 8% wheat gluten (WG) and diet with 8% OG with six pens/treatment. Body weight (BW) (21 and 35 days) and average daily gain (ADG) (1–21 days and 22–35 days) decreased (p < .05) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) (1–21 days and 22–35 days) increased (p < .05) in OG treatment. Feed intake (FI) decreased (p < .05) in WG and OG treatments during 22–35 days. However, FI was not influenced by dietary treatments during 1–21 days (p > .05). The OG‐fed broilers had a lower faecal pH value (p < .05) and higher faecal moisture content (p < 05) at 14, 21, 28 and 35 days. Villus height, crypt depth and V/C value were not different (p > .05) among treatments at 21 and 35 days. Lipid peroxidation (LPO) (21 and 35 days) and malondialdehyde (MDA) (35 days) content in crop of OG treatment increased (p < .05). Oxidized glutathione (GSSG) (21 days), LPO (21 and 35 days) and MDA (21 and 35 days) content in ileum of OG treatment increased (p < .05). The reduced glutathione/oxidized glutathione (GSH/GSSG) (21 days) and (GSH) (35 days) in ileum of OG treatment decreased (p < .05). The present findings indicate that OG might be a stressor for broiler gut, which could induce oxidative stress both in crop and in ileum, and the diarrhoea as well. The growth performance of broiler was consequently depressed.
