Detection of γ-H2AX,a Biomarker for DNA Double-strand Breaks,in Urinary Bladders of N -Butyl- N -(4-Hydroxybutyl)-Nitrosamine-Treated Rats

To evaluate the potential role of DNA repair in bladder carcinogenesis, we performed an immunohistochemical analysis of expression of various DNA repair enzymes and γ-H2AX, a high-sensitivity marker of DNA double-strand breaks, in the urothelium of male F344 rats treated with N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)-nitrosamine (BBN), a bladder-specific carcinogen. Our results clearly demonstrated that γ-H2AX aggregation was specifically generated in nuclei of bladder epithelial cells of BBN-treated rats, which was not found in untreated controls or mesenchymal cells. γ-H2AX-positive cells were detected not only in hyperplastic and neoplastic areas but also in the normal-like urothelium after BBN treatment. These data indicate that γ-H2AX has potential as a useful biomarker for early detection of genotoxicity in the rat urinary bladder. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report demonstrating expression of γ-H2AX during bladder carcinogenesis.     

Effect of intake of linoleic acid and α‐linolenic acid levels on conversion into long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in backfat and in intramuscular fat of growing pigs

A study was conducted to determine the effect of two levels of linoleic acid (LA) intake at either high or low α‐linolenic acid (ALA) intake on their conversion and subsequent deposition into long‐chain (20–22 C‐atoms) polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC PUFA) in muscle and backfat in growing pigs. In a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement, 32 gilts from 8 litters were assigned to one of four dietary treatments, varying in LA and ALA intakes. Low ALA and LA intakes were 0.15 and 1.31 g/(kg BW^0.75/day), respectively, and high ALA and LA intakes were 1.48 and 2.65 g/(kg BW^0.75/day) respectively. There was a close positive relation between intake of ALA and the concentration of ALA in backfat and in intramuscular fat. Dietary ALA did not affect the concentration of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), but increased docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) in backfat. High ALA intake did not significantly affect DHA but significantly increased EPA, 20:3 n‐3 and DPA concentrations in intramuscular fat. The n‐3 LC PUFA proportion in backfat was increased from approximately 1–3%, which may be useful to enrich meat with these fatty acids. The effect of ALA intake on n‐3 LC PUFA was suppressed by LA intake. Dietary ALA suppressed the concentration of n‐6 LC PUFA in blood plasma by more than 50%. When compared at equal incremental dose, the inhibiting effect of ALA on blood arachidonic acid was stronger than the stimulating effect of LA as precursor.

延边黄牛骨骼肌特异性钙蛋白酶基因多态性及其与肉质性状关系的研究

Calpain3(CAPN3)在肌肉组织中特异表达,其多态位点与畜禽诸多生产性状相关。本研究采用PCR-SSCP方法,设计2对基因特异性引物CAPN3-1、CAPN3-3,对96头延边黄牛CAPN3基因进行了SNPs检测,并将其与部分肉质性状进行了方差分析。试验结果显示,分别在CAPN3基因54982bp处发现A→G突变,56094bp处发现G→A突变。方差分析结果表明,2个位点中各个基因型与肉质嫩度、蒸煮损失均无显著相关性,CAPN3-3片段BB基因型仅在第3天时的pH显著高于AA纯合型个体(P0.05)。2个位点与肉质色度方差分析结果显示,2个位点中各个基因型黄色度呈显著相关(P0.05),与肉色中其他色度无相关性。CAPN3-1位点处,BB基因型较AA、AB基因型具有更高的黄色度值,此规律并不随时间的延续而改变,而在CAPN3-3位点处则无此规律。
