L-arginine prevents reduced expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in pulmonary arterioles of broilers exposed to cool temperatures

This study investigated nitric oxide synthase (NOS) expression in the endothelium of pulmonary arterioles of broilers during the development of pulmonary hypertension syndrome (PHS). PHS was triggered by exposing broilers to sub-thermoneutral (cool) temperatures and an additional 1.0% L-arginine was added to the basal diet to evaluate the effects of supplemental L-arginine on nitric oxide (NO) production, endothelial NOS expression, and the incidence of PHS. Cumulative mortality from PHS, right/total ventricle weight ratios (RV/TV), and body weights were recorded. Plasma NO concentration and NOS expression in the endothelium of pulmonary arterioles with an outer diameter ranging from 100 to 200 microm were determined. Birds exposed to cool temperatures had increased pulmonary hypertension and PHS mortality and diminished endothelial NOS expression. Supplemental dietary L-arginine reduced PHS mortality and elicited higher NOS expression within the pulmonary endothelium coincident with elevated NO production. The results demonstrated that broilers developing PHS exhibited diminished NOS expression in the endothelium of their pulmonary arterioles. Supplemental L-arginine prevented the reduced expression of NOS in the pulmonary endothelium, which might contribute to the increased production of NO by the pulmonary vasculature.     

Inhibition of porcine circovirus type 1 and type 2 production in PK-15 cells by small interfering RNAs targeting the Rep gene

Porcine circovirus type 1 (PCV1) and type 2 (PCV2) are two genotypes of porcine circovirus. Both of them are presumed to be widespread in the swine population. Currently, there is no specific treatment for their infections. RNA interference (RNAi) is a sequence-specific RNA degradation mechanism mediated by small interfering RNA (siRNA), which represents a possible therapeutic application for the treatment of viral infections. In this study, three siRNA expression plasmids (pS-RepA, pS-RepB and pS-RepC) were generated to target three different coding regions of the Rep protein (Rep) of PCV. These siRNAs were used to inhibit PCV production in a porcine kidney cell line, PK-15 cells. Our results revealed that Rep gene expression was inhibited by pS-RepA, pS-RepB and pS-RepC to different degrees. Moreover, our study also showed that the production of PCV1 and PCV2 was reduced by these siRNAs. pS-RepC, which targets the middle region of Rep gene, proved to be the most efficient siRNA for inhibition of Rep expression and viral production. Taken together, our data suggest that RNAi could be investigated as a potential treatment for PCV infection.     

秋蚕饲育技术要点

针对秋季气候环境条件,采取相应的技术措施,才能保证秋蚕稳产高产. 1 把好消毒关 在夏蚕饲养结束后,首先进行蚕后消毒,即用2%的福尔马林液或含有效氯1%的漂白粉澄清液将蚕室蚕具先消一次毒后再搬出去清洗,晒干.养蚕前又用含有效氯1%漂白粉液对蚕室蚕具进行消毒,然后用硫磺柏桠熏烟一次,最后开放门窗,准备养蚕.上一季养蚕的大蚕室和上蔟室不能用来养下一季的小蚕.在饲养中要做到蚕期继续消毒,坚持每天用漂白粉防僵粉或新鲜石灰进行蚕体蚕座消毒,如发现病蚕应及时隔离淘汰,除沙时,对死蚕和淘汰的病、弱蚕必须投入石灰缸中集中深埋.除沙后坚持换鞋进出贮桑室,坚持洗手给桑等卫生制度,隔离病源防止蚕病传播蔓延.小蚕期坚持用含有效氯0.3%的漂白粉液进行擦洗桑叶,稍干后再喂蚕.     

控光增绒技术在辽宁绒山羊中应用效果观察

2010～2012年,辽宁省畜牧科学研究院先后在本院科技示范场、凤城市绒山羊养殖户,开展了辽宁绒山羊控光增绒试验,设置了不同控光时间的试验组以及相应的对照组,以期验证该项技术在辽宁地区和辽宁绒山羊生产中的应用效果。试验结果表明,该项技术对辽宁绒山羊增绒效果不明显,达不到一年两次剪绒、提高产绒量的目的,建议谨慎将该项技术应用于辽宁地区辽宁绒山羊生产中。

短期禁牧对天山北坡蒿类荒漠群落特征及其稳定性的影响

本研究以天山北坡蒿类荒漠为研究对象,采用野外调查取样的方法,探讨不同区域荒漠围栏内外群落特征和物种多样性对禁牧的响应规律,分析禁牧对生态系统稳定性的影响。结果表明,1)禁牧能改变荒漠植被功能群结构,禁牧后不同生态经济类群群落盖度和生物量分别上升40.2%~57.0%和44.4%~81.0%;2)荒漠群落物种多样性指数对短期禁牧的响应较小,但从区域上看,玛纳斯荒漠放牧区Patrick丰富度指数、Shannon-Wiener多样性指数比博乐和奇台显著高16.7%~20.0%,而禁牧区Simpson优势度指数、Shannon-Wiener多样性指数、Pielou均匀度指数高了8.6%~17.7%;3)短期禁牧有利于荒漠群落稳定性的维持,且稳定性可能与禁牧年限和生态环境的变化均有一定的关系。因此,短期禁牧能显著提高荒漠草地生产力,有利于群落物种多样性和群落稳定性的维持。
