Regulation of fibroblast growth factor 9 on the differentiation of goat intramuscular adipocytes

It has been found that fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGF-FGFR) signaling can regulate the expression of adipocyte differentiation genes. FGF9 is one of the members of FGFs that mainly binds receptors FGFR2 and FGFR3. FGF9 is highly expressed in the adipose tissue of humans and mice, but there are few reports on the role of FGF9 in goat intramuscular adipocyte differentiation. Therefore, this study explored the effect of FGF9 on adipocyte differentiation through cell culture, interference, and overexpression. The expression of receptors FGFR1–FGFR4 in adipocyte differentiation and their effects on differentiation were detected to screen receptor gene of FGF9. Finally, the interaction between FGF9 and the receptor was tested by cotransfection. Our results showed that FGF9 interacts with FGFR2 to inhibit goat intramuscular adipocyte differentiation by regulating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) and preadipocyte factor 1 (Pref1), which is a data support for subsequent pathway research.     

秦川牛保种情况的分析 Ⅰ群体规模、年龄结构与迁移

采用群体遗传学理论与方法研究了陕西省秦川牛场秦川牛保种群30多年来的保种情况,详细地分析了保种群的规模、年龄结构及迁移情况。研究发现,该保种群规模变化剧烈,总的来说规模偏小,尤其是公牛群远小于保种遗传学基本法则规定的最小值;畜群结构不稳定,迁入不规则,该研究结果将为今后采取适当的措施提高保种效果提供科学的参考依据。     

Pharmacokinetics of thiopentone in the horse

Abass, B.T., Weaver, B.M.Q., Staddon, G.E., Waterman, A.W. Pharmacokinetics of thiopentone in the horse. J. vet. Pharmacol. Therap . 17 , 331–338.
The pharmacokinetics of thiopentone sodium administered intravenously as a single dose (11 mg/kg) were studied in acepromazine pre-medicated horses and ponies in which anaesthesia was maintained with either halothane (Group 1) or isoflurane (Group 2). The results showed that the disposition kinetics of thiopentone in horses and ponies were best described by a three-compartment open model. In plasma, a very short initial distribution phase in both horses and ponies, half-life 1.4 ± 1.2 min (mean ± SD) and 1.3 ± 0.7 min, respectively, was obtained, which was followed by a second comparatively slower redistribution phase, half-life 16 ± 12 min and 11 ± 5 min, respectively. The volume of distribution for the drug was large, especially in the ponies which received isoflurane (1127 ± 86 ml/kg). compared to the horses which received halothane (742 ± 89 ml/kg). The drug had a somewhat shorter elimination half-life in the horses (147 ± 21 min) than in the ponies (222 ± 44 min), but no obvious difference in clearance of the drug was observed between the horses (3.5 ± 0.5 ml/min/kg) and ponies (3.6 ± 0.8 ml/min/kg).     

温度、光照和发芽床对假俭草种子萌发的影响

实验室内进行了假俭草种子净度检验样品最低限量和发芽检验方法的研究，探讨了光照（以黑暗为对照）、温度（分别包括２０℃恒温，１５／２５℃、２０／３０℃、２０／３５℃和２５／３５℃变温）和发芽床（分设纸上ＴＰ和砂中Ｓ）等因素对种子发芽的影响。结果表明：假俭草种子净度检验样品最低限量是３ｇ，送验样最低量以及计数其它植物种子检验样品最低量均为３０ｇ；最佳萌发条件为２０／３０℃或２０／３５℃变温（１６小时低温，８小时高温），高温时段设光照，和纸上（ＴＰ）发芽；发芽的初次和未次计数时间分别以第１０天和第２１天为宜；种子的幼苗发育可划分为单子叶植物子叶留土类型。

宜阳县猪场疥螨感染情况调查

疥螨是引起猪螨病(俗称疥癣或癞病)的主要寄生虫,呈世界性分布,对猪的生长危害很大,具有高度接触传染性。猪感染疥螨后,皮肤剧痒,出现红色疹状凸起,因搔痒摩擦导致脱毛,皮肤皱裂、结痂,严重影响生长发育。现将2018年宜阳地区养殖场(户)猪疥螨的感染情况报道如下,为该病的防治提供参考。     

牛胃肠炎发生原因及防治

胃肠炎是家畜生长中的常见病和高发病,牛具有很高的发病率。造成胃肠炎发生的原因是饲养管理不到位、饲料营养价值较差,饲料不足,牛出现营养不良,身体抵抗能力下降,使消化机能变差,进入消化道中的饲料不能很好的吸收,肠鸣音大,饲料随着肠道的蠕动排出体外。临床上主要表现为腹泻、身体脱水、生长发育不良。由于牛胃肠炎的发生机理还不明确,病因比较复杂,在疾病诊治期间应尝试明确实际的发病愿意,对动物进行对症防治,确保牛健康生长。该文主要论述牛胃肠炎的发生原因和防治措施。     

Age-related changes in the anatomical characteristics of Peyer's patches in small intestine of Bactrian camels (Camelus bactrianus)

The distribution, size, and appearance of Peyer's patches vary according to species. In order to determine the anatomical characteristics of Peyer's patches in small intestine of Bactrian camel, and age-related changes in the number of Peyer's patches, 40 Bactrian camels of the following four age groups were studied: young (0.5–2 years), pubertal (3–5 years), middle-aged (6–16 years), and old (17–20 years). The exact number of Peyer's patches was recorded, and the appearance of Peyer's patches was described in detail. The results indicated that Peyer's patches of Bactrian camels not only have a particular anatomical location and distinct appearance but also change with age. They were distributed in the whole small intestine and there were four distinct types of Peyer's patches: nodular, faviform, cup-shaped, and cystic form Peyer's patches. However, the nodular and cystic form Peyer’s patches are specific to Bactrian camel, which have not been found in other animals including Dromedary camel. In addition, the distribution density of Peyer's patches in ileum was the maximum, then was jejunum and duodenum. Further statistical analysis showed that the number of Peyer's patches was altered with age. The number peaked in 5-year-old camels and declined subsequently with age. However, there was little change in the size of Peyer's patches in different age groups; no age-related macroscopic variations in the shape or size of the Peyer's patches were found. Results obtained from this study provide the basic information to further study on the gastrointestinal mucosal immunity of Bactrian camel.     

森林生态系统土壤碳库对氮沉降的响应研究进展

大气氮沉降的不断加剧,改变了土壤理化性质,直接影响植物的生长与发育,间接影响了陆地生态系统碳库,进而可能改变全球气候变化进程。森林是陆地生态系统的主体,因此,弄清氮沉降如何影响森林生态系统碳库,对预测全球气候变化具有重要意义。笔者旨在详细分析氮沉降对森林生态系统土壤碳库输入和输出的影响,阐述氮沉降对森林生态系统凋落物分解、细根周转和土壤呼吸的影响研究进展和作用机制。截至目前,关于氮沉降对于陆地生态系统的影响研究报道较多,且国内外诸多学者也在森林生态系统土壤碳库对氮沉降的响应领域开展了较多试验研究,但多集中于碳输入和输出的总量分析,而对输入和输出各个组分的研究相对较少。笔者综述了国内外有关森林生态系统碳库输入和输出各组分对氮沉降响应的相关研究,为进一步揭示其响应机制和途径提供参考依据。
