瘤胃乙酸、丙酸比例对绵羊体内氧化代谢和血浆胰岛素水平动态变化的影响

本研究以全胃营养灌注绵羊为试验动物 ,用物质代谢区室分析方法和同位素示踪技术研究了瘤胃乙酸、丙酸比例对体内氧化代谢和血浆胰岛素水平动态变化的影响。不同试验处理间营养灌注液能量、蛋白质水平相同 ,而瘤胃灌注混合挥发性脂肪酸的乙酸、丙酸比例不同。三种混合挥发性脂肪酸的乙酸、丙酸比例分别为75 :15(VFA1)、65 :25(VFA2)、45 :45(VFA3)。由测定引入 14C -乙酸后血液二氧化碳放射比强度—时间曲线上升段斜率(k值)反映体内氧化代谢强度。试验结果为 ,瘤胃灌注VFA1 时的k值显著高于灌注VFA2 和VFA3 时的k值(P<0.05) ,而VFA2 和VFA3 两处理间的差异不显著(P>0.05) ,说明瘤胃灌注VFA1 时绵羊体内氧化代谢强度增加。向停止灌注24小时的绵羊瘤胃内灌注VFA1,血浆胰岛素水平在恢复灌注后缓慢上升。将瘤胃灌注混合挥发性脂肪酸由VFA1 换为VFA2 后 ,血浆胰岛素水平迅速上升 ,之后迅速下降 ,而由VFA2 换为VFA3 后未出现血浆胰岛素水平的明显变化 ,说明血浆胰岛素水平的变化与体内糖代谢调节状态有关 ,而瘤胃灌注VFA1 时的体内糖代谢调节状态与灌注VFA2 和VFA3 时明显不同。     

Yield and morphological responses of a forage sorghum to mefluidide

Abstract

Due to rapid growth, stem build‐up in forage sorghum crops often leads to considerable wastage by animals and consequent loss of production. In this study the potential of the chemical plant growth regulator, mefluidide, for modifying the morphology of forage sorghum was examined. Mefluidide was applied to two consecutive plantings of forage sorghum at 0; 0,14 and 0,28 kg/ha. Treatment with mefluidide suppressed stem elongation of sorghum plants and stimulated tillering 4–6 weeks after application. After 6 weeks the stem:leaf ratio of treated plants was significantly lower (P ≤0,05) than that of control plants. On average, total dry matter (DM) yield was marginally higher for the control, but DM yield of leaf material was significantly higher. (P ≤0,05) for treated plots from 6 weeks after mefluidide application. No significant differences were observed between levels of mefluidide but responses of different variables over time differed between plantings. This was associated with different stages of plant growth when mefluidide was applied and different environmental conditions for two plantings.

研究了鹿胎及胎盘制剂对老年雄性大鼠免疫器官指数、血清球蛋白含量和巨噬细胞吞噬率及吞噬指数的影响。结果表明,鹿胎及胎盘制剂对老年雄性大鼠胸腺和脾脏指数影响不显著(P>0.05);但提高了老年雄性大鼠血清球蛋白含量,其中鹿胎制剂Ⅰ号组最高,比对照组高出62.64%,与其他各组相比有显著差异(P<0.05);鹿胎制剂Ⅱ号组和人胎盘粉处理组大鼠巨噬细胞吞噬率和吞噬指数与对照组相比有极显著提高(P<0.01),说明鹿胎及胎盘制剂对老年雄性大鼠具有提高免疫机能的作用。     

Successful drug development despite adverse preclinical findings part 1: processes to address issues and most important findings

Unexpected adverse preclinical findings (APFs) are not infrequently encountered during drug development. Such APFs can be functional disturbances such as QT prolongation, morphological toxicity or carcinogenicity. The latter is of particular concern in conjunction with equivocal genotoxicity results. The toxicologic pathologist plays an important role in recognizing these effects, in helping to characterize them, to evaluate their risk for man, and in proposing measures to mitigate the risk particularly in early clinical trials. A careful scientific evaluation is crucial while termination of the development of a potentially useful drug must be avoided. This first part of the review discusses processes to address unexpected APFs and provides an overview over typical APFs in particular classes of drugs. If the mode of action (MoA) by which a drug candidate produces an APF is known, this supports evaluation of its relevance for humans. Tailor-made mechanistic studies, when needed, must be planned carefully to test one or several hypotheses regarding the potential MoA and to provide further data for risk evaluation. Safety considerations are based on exposure at no-observed-adverse-effect levels (NOAEL) of the most sensitive and relevant animal species and guide dose escalation in clinical trials. The availability of early markers of toxicity for monitoring of humans adds further safety to clinical studies. Risk evaluation is concluded by a weight of evidence analysis (WoE) with an array of parameters including drug use, medical need and alternatives on the market. In the second part of this review relevant examples of APFs will be discussed in more detail.     

牛体外受精时老化卵对受精率与染色体异常发生的影响

通过延长体外培养时间得到牛老化卵，对其体外受精率与染色体的异常发生进行了研究，体外受精48h后的受精率，46h培养组与22h和34h培养组之间差异显著（P＜0．05），随着老化时间的延长，受精率及胚胎发育速度明显降低。染色体分析结果表明，46h组的受精卵的染色体异常发生率为61．6％，22h组44．6％，2组之间差异显著（P＜0．05），单倍体（n=31)的发生率也随着老化时间的延长而增加，这些单倍体的性染色体的构成表明，含有X－性染色体的胚的出现率显著高于含有Y－染色体的胚的出现率（P＜0．05）。单倍体的发生是由卵的老化而引起单一配子的孤雌发生，体外培养时间的延长对正常的2倍体的性别无明显影响。     

复合微生态制剂对苏牧白鹅雏鹅生长性能的试验研究

试验研究复合微生态制剂对雏鹅生长性能的影响。采用单因素随机设计,将160只1日龄健康苏牧白鹅仔鹅,随机分为4个处理,每个处理4个重复,每个重复10只,公母各半。0-3周龄雏鹅饲喂两种不同营养水平的饲料,观察其对雏鹅日增重、饲料报酬的影响。结果表明：雏鹅日增重、饲料转化率复合微生态制剂组显著高于不添加组。随着复合微生态制剂添加量的增加,肉鹅的日增重和日采食量均上升的趋势,料重比呈下降后的趋势,其中试验3组的日增重与采食量最高,但与对照组差异显著,与试验1组、试验2组差异显著（P〈0.05）;试验1组与试验2组差异不显著（P〉0.05）;料重比的变化趋势与平均日增重相同。     

Changes in nutrient balance,methane emissions,physiologic biomarkers,and production performance in goats fed different forage-to-concentrate ratios during lactation

The objective was to determine the effect forage-to-concentrate (F:C) ratio and stage of lactation on methane emissions, digestibility, nutrient balance, lactation performance, and metabolic responses in lactating goats. Twenty Murciano-Granadina dairy goats were used in an experiment divided into 3 periods: early (30 d), mid (100 d), and late (170 d) lactation. All goats were fed a diet with 35:65 F:C (FCL) during early-lactation. Then, 1 group (n = 10 goats) remained on FCL through mid- and late-lactation while the other group (n = 10 goats) was fed a diet with 50:50 F:C at mid-lactation (FCM) and 65:35 (FCH) at late lactation. A greater proportion of concentrate in the diet was associated with greater overall intake and digestibility (P < 0.05). Energy balance was negative in early-lactation (−77 kJ/kg of BW^0.75, on average) and positive for FCL at mid- and late-lactation (13 and 35 kJ/kg of BW^0.75, respectively). Goats fed FCM and FCH maintained negative energy balance throughout lactation. Plasma concentrations of non-esterified fatty acids at mid-lactation were greater for FCM than FCL (680 mEq/L), and at late-lactation concentrations were greater for FCH and FCL (856 mEq/L). A similar response was detected for plasma β-hydroxybutyrate. Methane emission was greater (P < 0.05) for FCM than FCH (1.7 g CH₄/d). This study demonstrated that differences in F:C across stages of lactation lead to distinct metabolic responses at the level of the rumen and tissues.
