猪生殖--呼吸道综合征(PRRS)的诊断与防制

1987年在美国北卡罗来纳州、明尼苏达州以及衣阿华州等地的猪群中爆发了一系列令人震惊的"流产风暴",特征是妊娠母猪发生晚期流产、早产、死胎和木乃伊胎,以及仔猪出现呼吸道病和高死亡率.由于该病前所未闻且病原不明,故被称为"猪神秘病"(MSD)[1-4].其后,加拿大报道了类似的病症[5].1990年冬,欧洲开始流行MSD,首先在德国出现[6].继而,在荷兰、西班牙、比利时、英国、法国等养猪业较发达的欧洲国家陆续爆发了本病[7-10].     

发达国家牛结核病根除计划的法律要点分析

完善有效的法规体系,是美、欧、澳根除牛结核病等动物疫病的基础保障。其要点主要包括：健全法律制度,强化财政支持,减少利益方抵触行为;规范检测方法,对屠宰牛进行全部检疫;对阳性牛实施严格追溯制度,并分类实施标识制度;建立病牛扑杀的基本标准,选择性采取扑杀措施;推行区域化管理制度,建立差异性市场准入标准;实施野生动物隔离及监测制度,防止野生动物向家养动物传播疫情;强化利益方的宣传教育,营建群防群控氛围。这些策略和措施,对我国健全结核病防治策略具有一定借鉴意义。

Suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid,a novel histone deacetylase inhibitor,improves the development and acetylation level of miniature porcine handmade cloning embryos

Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) can change the histone acetylation and significantly enhance the developmental competence of the pre‐implantation SCNT embryo. To select a proper histone deacetylase inhibitor to improve the success rate and potentially developmental ability of handmade cloning (HMC) embryos of miniature porcine, we compared the effect of two histone deacetylase inhibitors (SAHA vs. VPA) on HMC embryo development, their histone acetylation level and the expression level of relevant genes. The blastocyst rate and number of blastocyst cells of HMC embryos treated with SAHA (SAHA‐HMC) or VPA (VPA‐HMC) were significantly higher than those of control (Control‐HMC), respectively, but there were no significant difference between SAHA‐HMC and VPA‐HMC groups. In addition, the acetylation level (AcH4K8) of Control‐HMC and VPA‐HMC embryos at the blastocyst stage, respectively, was significantly lower than that of in vitro fertilized (IVF) and SAHA‐HMC embryos. However, the acetylation H4K8 of the blastocysts had no significant difference between SAHA‐HMC and the IVF groups. The SAHA‐HMC blastocysts indicated comparative expression levels of Oct4 and HDAC1 (histone deacetyltransferase gene) with those of IVF blastocysts. In contrast, the expression levels of Oct4 were lower and those of HDAC1 were higher in the VPA‐HMC and Control‐HMC blastocysts, respectively, compared to those of the IVF blastocysts. Our results demonstrated that the HMC embryos treated by SAHA could promote the pre‐implantation development and increase the levels of histone H4K8 acetylation and the expression of the OCT4 gene, yet decrease the expression of the HDAC1 gene to the comparable level of the IVF embryos. Our results proved that SAHA may be a better histone deacetylase inhibitor for porcine HMC compared to VPA, and furthermore, it may indicate that SAHA can effectively correct the abnormal histone acetylation during the HMC embryo development and subsequently improve the full‐term developmental potential of the HMC embryos after embryo transplantation.     

新品系A系兔生长发育及部分特征特性测定

肉鸡屠宰加工过程中沙门菌污染定量风险评估

为了构建肉鸡屠宰加工过程中沙门菌污染定量风险评估模型,分析鸡肉中沙门菌的消长变化规律,明确关键风险防控点,采用2015年部分肉鸡屠宰场沙门菌污染监测和调研数据,构建以烫煺后为评估过程起点,包括净膛、清洗预冷和分割传送的模块化过程风险评估模型,以不同分布描述各变量,并通过@RISK软件模拟运行。结果显示,通过构建的模型模拟屠宰加工后终端鸡肉产品中的沙门菌污染量,90%的可能分布在0~9MPN之间,而依据实际监测数据换算为5.3 MPN,说明模型可信。根据过程中各环节的模拟数据,分析了肉鸡携带的沙门菌消长变化,发现预冷后沙门菌污染总量明显下降,但分割传送后污染总量又有所回升。通过拟合的相关系数分析,明确了传送带上的沙门菌是影响终端鸡肉沙门菌污染的最关键风险点。本研究构建的肉鸡屠宰加工全过程沙门菌定量风险评估模型,可为肉鸡屠宰场沙门菌污染的卫生监管和风险管理提供理论依据。     

Immune response and protective efficacy against homologous challenge in BALB/c mice vaccinated with DNA vaccine encoding Toxoplasma gondii actin depolymerizing factor gene

A DNA vaccine (pVAX1-TgADF) encoding Toxoplasma gondii actin depolymerizing factor (ADF) gene was constructed and the immune response and protective efficacy of this vaccine against homologous challenge in BALB/c mice were evaluated. High titers of specific antibody and increases in the percentage of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T lymphocyte cells were observed from BALB/c mice vaccinated with pVAX1-TgADF (P<0.05), when PBS group was used as control. The survival time of BALB/c mice in pVAX1-TgADF group was longer than those in control groups. The numbers of brain cysts in the experimental BALB/c mice immunized with pVAX1-TgADF reduced significantly compared with those in PBS group (P<0.05), and the rate of reduction could reach to around 42.8%. These results suggested that the DNA vaccine pVAX1-TgADF could generate specific humoral and cellular immune responses, prolong survival times, and reduce brain cysts load against T. gondii infection in BALB/c mice.
