VE在硒缺乏动物自由基代谢中的作用

为探讨ＶＥ在硒缺乏动物自由基代谢中的作用及添加ＶＥ对自由基代谢的影响,本试验采用低硒（低于１０－９）、补ＶＥ（１０－４）日粮饲喂小鼠,并对动物增重,血液、肝组织内丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）、硒谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶（Ｓｅ－ＧＳＨ－Ｐｘ）及自由基（ＦＲｓ）水平进行了系统检测。试验发现,添加ＶＥ除可阻止缺硒所致的动物生长迟缓外,还可明显降低相关组织内ＭＤＡ的含量,但它并不直接影响Ｓｅ－ＧＳＨ－Ｐｘ的活力。试验结果表明,ＶＥ主要通过对机体脂质过氧化反应的抑制作用及其对自由基所致膜结构损伤的修复而参与机体自由基代谢,在硒缺乏状态下,它能与硒协同作用而影响病程发展和疾病转归。     

雷州半岛尾巨桉人工林林下穿透雨特征研究

为深入了解桉树生态水文过程,正确认识桉树水文功能,本文通过野外实测法,对不同林龄尾巨桉林下穿透雨进行连续观测,并结合林外降雨量分析尾巨桉人工林林下穿透雨特征及其与降雨的关系.结果发现:尾巨桉各林龄林下穿透雨量与降雨量呈极显著正相关线性模型(P＜0.01);林下穿透雨率与降雨强度呈极显著正相关(P＜0.01),截留率与降雨强度呈极显著负相关(P＜0.01),变异系数随降雨强度的增大先增大后减小,且两者均与降雨量无显著相关性;干湿季林下穿透雨率差异显著,湿季显著大于干季(P＜0.05),最大穿透雨率及最小穿透雨率分别是干季的1.17倍和3.2倍.     

东北豹保护对策研究

通过概述世界上东北豹的种群数量特征和分布状况,分析了东北豹保护面临的各种威胁和问题,如人类过度干扰、乱砍滥伐、乱捕滥猎、近亲繁殖以及人类的开发建设等活动对栖息地造成的严重破坏,使栖息地呈片段化、破碎化发展趋势,直接威胁东北豹种群的生存和繁衍。中国对东北豹的保护没有足够的重视,还没有建立专门的东北豹自然保护区,而俄罗斯对于东北豹的保护非常重视,不但建立了专门的东北豹自然保护区,还完善了东北豹的各项保护措施。最后,针对上述情况,提出了东北豹栖息地保护、猎物种群恢复、东北豹的重引入、建立东北豹跨界保护区等相应的保护对策。     

牦牛大肠杆菌的分离鉴定及系统发育分析

本试验旨在研究牦牛源大肠杆菌的遗传进化关系,明确其与人和其他动物大肠杆菌的亲缘关系。采集来源于四川省甘孜州、阿坝州的60份临床健康成年牦牛肛门棉拭子样本,接种于麦康凯琼脂培养基上进行细菌的分离培养,通过常规形态学、培养特性、生化特征和16S rRNA PCR检测的研究,确定49株为大肠杆菌。对其中9株牦牛源大肠杆菌进行16S rRNA克隆、测序,经系统发育分析发现牦牛菌株组内同源性为98.8%~99.9%,与GenBank中其他菌株的同源性为94.0%~100%。结果表明,牦牛源大肠杆菌与牛源菌株的遗传距离最近,与羊源菌株的遗传距离最远,与人、猪、鸭、鸡源菌株的遗传距离较近,其中有2株菌与人肠出血性大肠杆菌(EHEC)O₁₅₇∶H₇和志贺氏菌聚为一支,从遗传进化的关系看其有可能成为人类的潜在病原菌。     

Serotypes of Escherichia coli strains isolated from piglets with diarrhea in swine industrial farms

Serotypes of E. coli strains isolated from piglets, which died with symptoms of diarrhea in 9 swine industrial farms, were determined. Large numbers of serotypes (from 16 to 27) in individual farms were detected. The sets of serotypes from 9 investigated farms differed among each other significantly, depending on the farm and time of examination. It was found that more than one serotype of E. coli may exist in the pig body and contribute to the development of disease. The predominant serotypes, i.e. those comprising more than 10% of serologically determined strains, were found to exist in 6 of the investigated farms and not in the remaining ones. Among the predominant serotypes, particularly important seem to be strains with K88 antigen. For prophylaxis of piglet colibacteriosis in industrial farms in Poland two vaccines for sows are recommended: one containing the K88 antigen only and the other the following serotypes: 0149:K91,K88; 020:K57; 020:K83; 0157:K88; 01:K1; 0136:K78; 024:K?; 078:K80 and 0118:K? Strains belonging to these serotypes were the most prevalent in our strain collection.

产肠毒素大肠杆菌K88诱导仔猪炎症反应的分子机制

为探讨产肠毒素大肠杆菌（ETEC） K88感染仔猪发生炎症反应的分子机制,试验用ETEC K88灌服断奶仔猪,ELISA法检测攻毒后仔猪血清中白细胞介素8（IL-8）含量,实时荧光定量PCR方法检测淋巴结中Toll样受体2（TLR2）、Toll样受体4（TLR4）及其信号通路相关基因（髓样分化因子88（MyD88）、Toll相互作用蛋白（Tollip）、B细胞淋巴瘤因子3（Bcl3））的mRNA相对表达水平。结果发现,仔猪攻毒ETEC K88后6和24 h血清IL-8含量和淋巴结TLR2/4的表达水平均极显著或显著高于对照组（P<0.01;P<0.05）,且感染后24 h显著低于感染后6 h（P<0.05）;仔猪感染ETEC K88后24 h淋巴结中MyD88、Tollip和Bcl3的表达水平均极显著高于对照组（P<0.01）,但是感染后6 h时与对照组相比均无显著差异（P>0.05）。综上所述,ETEC K88感染仔猪可能是通过TLR2/4-MyD88信号通路产生炎症因子IL-8,促使仔猪出现炎症反应,且该炎症反应可能受Tollip和Bcl3蛋白的调控而被减弱。

以种植于青海刚察木里煤田江仓矿区排土场不同坡向(半阴半阳、阳坡和阴坡)、生长期为1～5 a的垂穗披碱草为研究对象,对该植物根系开展单根拉伸试验,测定其根径、单根抗拉力、抗拉强度、极限拉伸应变率和拉伸模量等力学指标。分别以采样位置、生长期和坡向为自变量,以上述力学指标为响应变量,通过单因素方差分析,探讨各自变量对上述指标的影响。结果表明：在半阴半阳坡和阴坡,各指标在不同取样点未表现出显著性差异,在阳坡,除根径外,其余指标均表现出显著性差异;随生长期增加,各坡向的植物抗拉力、抗拉强度等指标呈增加的变化特征;阳坡植物根径、单根抗拉力大于半阴半阳坡,而其余各指标则表现出相反的变化特征,在半阴半阳边坡,植物根系力学指标大于阴坡。     

Food animals as reservoirs and potential sources of multidrug-resistant diarrheagenic E. coli pathotypes: Focus on intensive pig farming in South Africa

BackgroundDiarrheagenic E. coli (DEC) strains are a major cause of diarrheal diseases in both developed and developing countries. Healthy asymptomatic animals may be reservoirs of zoonotic DEC, which may enter the food chain via the weak points in hygiene practices.AimWe investigated the prevalence of DEC along the pig production continuum from farm-to-fork.MethodsA total of 417 samples were collected from specific points along the pig production system, that is, farm, transport, abattoir and food. E. coli was isolated and enumerated using Colilert. Ten isolates from each Quanti-tray were selected randomly and phenotypically identified using eosin methylene blue agar selective media. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to confirm the species and to classify them into the various diarrheagenic pathotypes. Antimicrobial susceptibility was determined against a panel of 20 antibiotics using the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method and EUCAST guideline.ResultsThe final sample size consisted of 1044 isolates, of which 45.40% (474/1044) were DEC and 73% (762/1044) were multidrug-resistant. Enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC) was the most predominant DEC at all the sampling sites.ConclusionThe presence of DEC in food animal production environments and food of animal origin could serve as reservoirs for transmitting these bacteria to humans, especially in occupationally exposed workers and via food. Adherence to good hygienic practices along the pig production continuum is essential for mitigating the risk of transmission and infection, and ensuring food safety.
