Increasing selenium supply during the close-up dry period improves nutrient metabolism and attenuates inflammatory response after calving in dairy cows

The objective of this study was to investigate whether feeding selenium (Se)-replete cows a Se-yeast supplement in late pregnancy affects nutrient metabolism and inflammatory response during the periparturient period. Twenty cows were randomly assigned to two groups with 10 cows each. Cows in one group received Se-yeast at 0.3 mg Se/kg DM during the last 4 weeks before calving in addition to fed a TMR containing supplemented sodium selenite at 0.3 mg Se/kg DM (Se-yeast), while cows in another group were only fed a TMR containing supplemented sodium selenite at 0.3 mg Se/kg DM (Control). Blood samples were collected and analyzed for nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA), β-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA), glucose, insulin, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, serum amyloid A (SAA), haptoglobin (Hp), and albumin. In control cows, plasma NEFA, IL-1β, IL-6, SAA, and Hp levels increased after calving, but glucose, insulin, and albumin levels decreased after parturition. Se-yeast supplemental cows had lower postpartum concentrations of NEFA, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, SAA, and Hp, and higher postpartum levels of glucose, insulin, and albumin compared with control cows. The results indicate that feeding Se-replete cows a Se-yeast supplement in late pregnancy improves nutrient metabolism and attenuates the inflammatory response after calving.

Effects of Medium-chain Triglyceride on Growth Performance and Serum Biochemical Indices in Broilers

The study was conducted to investigate the effects of medium-chain triglyceride replacing the soybean oil in the basal diet on growth performance and serum biochemical indices of broilers.One hundred and forty four healthy,similar body weights AA broilers at the age of 14 days were randomly assigned to four groups with six replicates ger group and six broilers per replicate.Groups A,B,C and D were respectively fed with 0,0.6%,1.2% and 2% medium-chain triglyceride substituted the equivalent amount of soybean oil (using corn flour to balance the energy levels in each group) .The test lasted for 28 days and the indexes were measured once every two weeks.The results showed that the average daily gain and average daily feed intake of groups B,C and D were higher than that of group A,and the F/G was lower than group A.The average daily gain of groups C and D at 28 to 42 days old and group D at 14 to 42 days old were significantly higher than that of group A (P < 0.05).The serum glucose,total content of amino acid,total protein and albumin of groups B,C and D at age of 28 and 42 days old were higher than that of group A,while the serum triglyceride,total cholesterol and urea nitrogen levels were lower.The total cholesterol content at 42 days old and triglyceride concentrations at 28 days old of group C were significantly lower than those of group A (P < 0.05).The results indicated that medium-chain triglyceride could raise average daily gain and reduce the total cholesterol content and triglyceride concentrations of broilers,which were useful for improving the growth performance.

产碳青霉烯酶肠杆菌科细菌检测方法研究进展

抗生素的不合理使用使得细菌耐药性快速产生及传播，细菌耐药性已然成为重大公共卫生问题。碳青霉烯类抗生素在临床治疗中表现良好，常作为治疗多重耐药菌感染的最后一道防线，碳青霉烯耐药菌的出现对公共卫生安全产生了极大的威胁。产碳青霉烯酶是碳青霉烯耐药菌耐药的主要机制，因此，对产碳青霉烯酶肠杆菌科细菌的检测至关重要。目前，对于碳青霉烯酶的检测手段以表型检测和分子生物学检测方法为主。表型检测一般易于操作，成本低廉，便于在临床进行，但在检测效率和检测用时方面差强人意。分子生物学及其他新型技术在保持高特异性和敏感性的基础上能做到快速、高通量检测，但试验检测的成本高，需专业设备和人员，部分技术在碳青霉烯酶检测领域仍有待开发。当前，多种碳青霉烯酶的检测方法可针对不同的需求和目的，并没有一项检测能满足所有情况。进行检测时，试验所需时间、操作难度、经济成本等都需列入考量，应根据实际情况选择合适的检测方法。笔者通过结合当前背景，归纳总结产碳青霉烯酶肠杆菌科细菌的检测方法，从试验特异性与敏感性、可操作性、检测时间、试验成本等方面分析比较各个方法特点，以期为之后新的检测方法的开发及现有方法的改良研究提供切入点，为临床监测与检测方案的制定和实行提供思路。

东北地区春玉米临界氮浓度稀释曲线的建立和验证

过量施氮是目前玉米栽培中存在的普遍现象,基于临界氮浓度稀释曲线计算得出的氮营养指数是诊断氮营养丰缺的重要手段。基于东北地区4个生态点的试验数据,构建了东北地区春玉米临界氮稀释曲线,并在此基础上建立了氮营养指数模型和需氮量模型,结果表明,东北地区春玉米地上部临界氮浓度与生物量符合幂函数关系。利用独立试验资料对建立的临界氮浓度稀释曲线进行检验,发现基于临界氮浓度稀释模型计算的氮营养指数可以准确诊断玉米植株的氮营养状况,并计算出实时的氮素需求量。该研究建立的东北地区春玉米临界氮稀释模型可以为该地区春玉米的氮营养诊断和动态调控提供较好的理论和技术指导。     

菊花花瓣伸长相关基因CmXTHs的克隆与功能验证

从杭白菊(Chrysanthemum morifolium‘Hangbaiju’)中克隆了4个细胞壁松弛和伸展相关的木葡聚糖内转糖苷酶/水解酶基因,分别命名为CmXTH1、CmXTH2、CmXTH3和CmXTH4,序列分析表明其编码的氨基酸序列N端都含有23~30个氨基酸组成的信号肽区域和保守的催化活性位点DE(I/L)DEFLG以及紧邻的N(R/A)T组成的N端糖基化位点,CmXTH1/2/3的C端均含有4个保守的半胱氨酸残基,CmXTH1/2/3/4蛋白的相似度为66.2%。系统进化分析结果表明,CmXTH1/2/3属于XTH家族Ⅰ组,CmXTH4属于Ⅱ组。实时荧光定量结果表明:(1)菊花CmXTH1/2/3/4在根、茎、叶和花蕾中均有表达。CmXTH1在根中表达量较高,CmXTH2/3在茎中表达量较高,CmXTH4在花蕾中表达量最高。(2)CmXTH1/2/3/4在花序不同部位表达量有差异,CmXTH1/4在舌状花中表达量最高,CmXTH2/3在筒状花中表达量较高。(3)CmXTH1/2/3/4在舌状花不同发育阶段表达量差异显著,CmXTH1/2在盛花期表达量最高,CmXTH3在衰老期表达量最高,CmXTH4在初开期表达量最高。病毒诱导基因沉默结果表明,CmXTH1/2/3/4沉默系的花序直径和舌状花长度与对照相比均有所减小,其中CmXTH4沉默系减小最大,分别减小了25.67%和10.42%,舌状花花瓣表皮细胞与对照相比明显变小,影响了舌状花花瓣的伸长;CmXTH2沉默系的筒状花雄蕊长度和CmXTH4沉默系的花萼直径分别与对照相比显著减小。这表明菊花CmXTH1/2/3/4基因参与了花序的开放,促进了舌状花花瓣的伸长,对于菊花的花序增大具有重要作用。
