Eight cows were used to evaluate the effects of supplementation of soy sauce oil (SO) or Ca salts of fatty acids (FA) on rumen fermentation and milk production. The control diet (CO) consisted mainly of hay, corn silage and a concentrate. In the experimental diets, 400 g/day per cow of SO or FA (soybean oil and rapeseed oil) was supplemented to the CO diet. Experimental period for the three treatments was 14 days, and milk samples were taken during the last 2 days and rumen sample was taken on the last day. Dry matter intake was not affected by the treatments. The number of rumen protozoa at 0 h increased by SO and FA diets. Total volatile fatty acids at 2 h after feeding of SO diet was decreased compared to CO. The milk composition yield did not differ among treatments, although the percentages of fat and protein were decreased by SO and FA diets. The proportions of C8–C16 fatty acids in milk fat decreased, and those of C18 increased by SO and FA diets. The proportion of cis‐9, trans‐11 conjugated linoleic acid in milk fat by SO and FA diets increased by 120% and 135%, respectively. In spite of the slight suppression of rumen fermentation by SO diet, negative effects on feed intake and milk production were not detected. 相似文献

In the mammalian testis, the ubiquitin-proteasome system plays important roles in the process that promotes the formation of
mature sperm. We recently identified zygote-specific proteasome
assembly phaperone (ZPAC), which is specifically expressed in the mouse
gonads and zygote. ZPAC mediates a unique proteasome assembly pathway in the zygote, but the expression profile and function
of ZPAC in the testis is not fully understood. In this study, we investigated the possible role of ZPAC during mouse
spermatogenesis. First, we analyzed the expression of ZPAC and 20S proteasome subunit α4/PSMA7 in the adult mouse testis.
ZPAC and α4 were expressed in spermatogonia, spermatocytes, and round spermatids. In elongating spermatids, ZPAC was
expressed until step 10, whereas expression of α4 persisted until step 12. We then examined the expression profile of ZPAC
and α4 in a mouse model of experimental unilateral cryptorchidism. Consistent with appearance of morphologically impaired
germ cells following cryptorchidism, the ZPAC protein level was significantly decreased at 4 days post induction of
experimental cryptorchidism (D4) compared with the intact testis, although the amount of α4 protein persisted at least until
D10. Moreover, intense ZPAC staining was co-localized with staining of annexin V, an early indicator of apoptosis in
mammalian cells, in germ cells of cryptorchid testis, but ZPAC was also expressed in germ cells showing no detectable
expression of annexin V. These results suggest that ZPAC plays a role during spermatogenesis and raises the possibility that
20S proteasome mediated by ZPAC may be involved in the regulation of germ cell survival during spermatogenesis. 相似文献

A field experiment, involving lime N (calcium cyanamide, CaCN2) fertilization as a control measure, was conducted to study environmental problems induced by long-term heavy N application in Japanese tea fields. Long-term tea cultivation caused serious soil acidification. Seventy-seven percent of the 70 tea fields investigated had soil pH values below 4.0, and 9% below 3.0, with the lowest value of 2.7. Moreover, excess N application in tea fields put a threat to plant growth, induced serious nitrate contamination to local water, and caused high nitrous oxide loss. Compared with the conventional high N application treatment (1 100 kg N ha^-1) without lime N, the low N application (400 kg N ha^-1) with calcium cyanamide effectively stopped soil acidification as well as achieved the same or slightly higher levels in tea yield and in total N and amino acid contents of tea shoots. The application of calcium cyanamide could be a suitable fertilization for the prevention of environmental problems in tea cultivation. 相似文献

Fatty acid‐binding protein (FABP) has high affinity for long‐chain fatty acids and appears to participate in the metabolism and intracellular transport of lipids. Liver‐ and intestinal‐type FABP (L‐FABP and I‐FABP, respectively) are expressed in the small intestine. However, in the gastrointestinal tract of ruminants, expression and localization of FABPs are unknown. In this study, we investigated the expression of I‐FABP and L‐FABP in the gastrointestinal tract of cattle. I‐ and L‐FABP had higher messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein expression levels in the duodenum and jejunum relatively to other gastrointestinal regions in both calves and cows. Furthermore, L‐FABP mRNA and protein expression were high in the colon. Both these protein types were confirmed to be in the cytosol of jejunal epithelial cells, where they were found in the villi rather than in the crypts. We concluded that duodenal and jejunal FABPs might be involved in the metabolism of fatty acids mainly in epithelial cells in cattle. 相似文献

To detect the predominant lactobacilli in the intestinal flora of healthy thoroughbreds, we isolated lactobacilli from the feces of nine thoroughbreds (five males and four females; 0–15-year-old). The isolated lactobacilli comprise 17 species (37 strains), and they were classified into five groups: Lactobacillus salivarius (6 species), L. reuteri (6 species), Lactobacillus delbrueckii (3 species), L. buchneri (1 species) and L. vitulinus (1 species). On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequences, we identified 3 other phylogenetic relatives belonging to the genus Lactobacillus . These results suggest that the intestinal flora of thoroughbreds may comprise many species of the genus Lactobacillus . Polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) analyses of the 340-bp fragments of the 16S rRNA genes from the same nine fecal samples showed that L. hayakitensis , L. equigenerosi and L. equi are contained in all the samples, suggesting that these species are predominant lactobacilli in the intestinal flora of thoroughbreds. 相似文献

The present study was conducted to evaluate whether supplementation of semen extender with glutathione (GSH) can maintain the quality of frozen-thawed canine spermatozoa. Eighteen ejaculates were obtained from 5 dogs and placed in extender (20% egg yolk, Tris, citric acid, lactose, raffinose, antibiotics and 6.5% glycerol) containing 0 (control), 2.5, 5, 7.5 or 10 mM GSH. The samples were cooled to 4 C and then frozen in liquid nitrogen vapor. Motility parameters of the sperm were evaluated at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 12 and 24 h after thawing. Sperm motility was higher in the 5 mM GSH group than in the control or 2.5 and 10 mM GSH groups; this effect was observed at 1 to 24 h after thawing (P < 0.05). The 5 mM GSH group had a higher sperm viability index at 12 and 24 h after thawing compared with the other groups (P < 0.05). Acrosome integrity, evaluated at 4 h after thawing, was greater in two of the GSH-treated groups (5 and 10 mM) compared with the control. Lipid
peroxidation (LP) levels immediately after thawing were lower in the 5 and 10 mM GSH groups compared with the control, while those at 12 h after thawing did not differ significantly. Frozen-thawed semen in the 5 mM GSH group was used for transcervical insemination of 4 bitches, resulting in delivery of 5 puppies from 2 bitches. These results indicate that supplementation of semen extender with 5 mM GSH was effective in improving motility, longevity and acrosomal integrity and inhibiting LP levels in post-thaw canine spermatozoa, without any adverse impacts on full-term development after transcervical insemination. 相似文献

Ischemic acute kidney injury (AKI) is the most key pathological event for accelerating
progression to chronic kidney disease through vascular endothelial injury or dysfunction.
Thus, it is critical to elucidate the molecular mechanism of endothelial protection and
regeneration. Emerging evidence indicates that bone marrow-derived cells (BMCs) contribute
to tissue reconstitution in several types of organs post-injury, but little is known
whether and how BMCs contribute to renal endothelial reconstitution, especially in an
early-stage of AKI. Using a mouse model of ischemic AKI, we provide evidence that
incorporation of BMCs in vascular components (such as endothelial and smooth muscle cells)
becomes evident within four days after renal ischemia and reperfusion, associated with an
increase in stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF1) in endothelium and that in
CXCR4/SDF1-receptor in BMCs. Notably, anti-CXCR4 antibody decreased the numbers of
infiltrated BMCs and BMC-derived endothelium-like cells, but not of BMC-derived smooth
muscle cell-like cells. These results suggest that reconstitution of renal endothelium
post-ischemia partially depends on a paracrine loop of SDF1-CXCR4 between resident
endothelium and BMCs. Such a chemokine ligand-receptor system may be attributable for
selecting a cellular lineage (s), required for renal vascular protection, repair and
homeostasis, even in an earlier phase of AKI. 相似文献
