Induction of VEGF by tepoxalin does not lead to increased tumour growth in a canine osteosarcoma xenograft

The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug tepoxalin on canine tumour cell growth and describe the changes associated with tepoxalin treatment. In vitro experiments were performed to assess tepoxalin-associated alterations in tumour cell growth. Clinically achievable tepoxalin concentrations did not significantly alter tumour cell growth in vitro. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) production and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α dose-dependently increased in vitro in the presence of tepoxalin. A canine osteosarcoma xenograft was used to determine in vivo effects of tepoxalin on tumour growth and angiogenesis. Despite increased VEGF in vitro, there was a significant growth delay associated with tepoxalin treatment. Normal dogs were administered tepoxalin to assess effects on systemic VEGF production, but not found to have significantly increased VEGF. These data suggest that tepoxalin may moderately inhibit tumour growth and may be administered as an analgesic to tumour-bearing dogs.     

血清中不同甘露(聚)糖结合凝集素浓度的绵羊感染绵羊肺炎支原体后免疫因子表达的变化

为研究中国美利奴羊不同甘露(聚)糖结合凝集素(MBL)浓度感染绵羊肺炎支原体(MO)的免疫因子水平变化,本研究选择血清中MBL高、低浓度的绵羊各6只(感染组和对照组各3只),感染组人工感染MO,分别在人工感染前和感染后不同时间,采用荧光定量PCR法检测血液中血清因子及补体表达水平。结果显示,不同MBL浓度的绵羊人工感染后MBL m RNA水平呈下降趋势,MBL高浓度促炎因子IL-2和IFN-γ的m RNA表达水平较高,抗炎因子IL-4的m RNA表达水平在感染后1 d升高,此后开始下降,而IL-4的m RNA水平在14 d后有所升高;MBL低浓度羊感染后其TNF-α的m RNA水平显著升高,随炎症的缓解,逐渐降低;补体C1和C3的m RNA在感染后表现出不同的变化,MO感染可以激活补体途径。本研究结果表明,低血清MBL浓度与绵羊支原体肺炎具有一定的相关性,MBL不同浓度组之间其IL-2、IL-4、TNF-α、IFN-γ、补体C1、C3水平存在差异,低浓度MBL的绵羊更易发生比较严重的炎症反应。

三江源区高寒草原土壤湿度变化特征及与气候因子的关系

利用青海省三江源区兴海县牧业气象站1999-2016年高寒草原土壤湿度、牧草生育期资料,分析了高寒草原土壤湿度的年、季变化特征以及牧草生长季不同生育期土壤湿度的变化特征及与气候因子的关系。结果表明:高寒草原0-10、10-20、20-30、30-40和40-50 cm土壤湿度均随年际延长呈增加趋势,春季除40-50 cm土层外,其他各层土壤湿度均随年际延长呈显著增加趋势(P<0.05)。高寒草原牧草生长季的土壤相对湿度随年际延长呈显著上升趋势(P<0.05),且与生长季降水量之间呈极显著正相关关系(P<0.01)。随着气候变化,牧草抽穗、开花、成熟和枯黄期的土壤相对湿度随年际延长呈显著增加趋势(P<0.05)。牧草抽穗期、枯黄和全生育期的土壤湿度与气温呈显著负相关关系(P<0.05)。高寒草原牧草生长季土壤湿度的增加有利于草地植被生长。     

温性典型草原羊草光合特性对模拟放牧因素分解的响应

放牧是一种复合胁迫,包括采食、践踏、粪尿返还等因素。为明晰放牧对草原影响的过程与机制,通过刈割、人工模拟踩踏、人工粪尿添加来模拟家畜放牧过程,以羊草为例,研究了株高、盖度、干重以及羊草叶片的光合特性对放牧分解因子的响应。结果表明,采食及包含采食因子的处理显著降低了羊草的盖度、高度及干重,但提升了羊草叶片的净光合速率（P_n）、蒸腾速率（T_r）、气孔导度（G_s）、胞间CO₂浓度（C_i）,降低了羊草叶片的水分利用效率（WUE）。羊草株高与羊草叶片净光合速率、气孔导度、胞间CO₂浓度、蒸腾速率显著负相关,与水分利用效率显著正相关;土壤含水量与气孔导度、胞间CO₂浓度、蒸腾速率显著正相关。相对而言,践踏和粪便以及它们的交互作用对羊草的影响比采食弱。综合可得,家畜的采食是放牧对温性典型草原羊草光合特性影响的主要因子。     

EGF和FGF-2对猪皮下脂肪神经嵴干细胞增殖和分化的影响

【目的】探究表皮生长因子（epidermal growth factor,EGF）和成纤维细胞生长因子2（fibroblast growth factor 2,FGF-2）对猪皮下脂肪神经嵴干细胞（neural crest stem cells,NCSCs）增殖及分化的影响,以优化猪皮下脂肪神经嵴干细胞的培养条件。【方法】通过体外分离培养原代猪皮下脂肪NCSCs,免疫荧光染色鉴定NCSCs标志物p75 NTR,并用不同浓度的EGF和FGF-2（0和0、10和10、10和20、20和10、20和20、30和30 ng/mL）作用于传代猪皮下脂肪NCSCs,用CCK-8试剂盒测定细胞增殖率,确定细胞生长的最适EGF和FGF-2浓度,将试验分为空白组和最适浓度组,测定两组细胞的生长曲线,成脂化诱导后油红O染色,对比两组细胞的脂滴生成量。【结果】免疫荧光染色结果显示,原代猪皮下脂肪NCSCs经p75 NTR鉴定呈阳性。CCK-8细胞增殖试验结果显示,EGF和FGF-2的浓度均为20 ng/mL时对传代猪皮下脂肪NCSCs的促增殖作用最佳。生长曲线显示,两组细胞均在第5~9天处于对数生长期,第10~15天细胞增殖减缓,逐渐到达停滞期。油红O染色结果显示,最适浓度组胞质内的脂滴生成量远多于对照组。【结论】在培养液中添加20 ng/mL EGF和20 ng/mL FGF-2对猪皮下脂肪NCSCs的增殖和分化有促进作用。

Necrotizing Meningoencephalitis in Atypical Dog Breeds: A Case Series and Literature Review

Background

Canine necrotizing meningoencephalitis (NME) is a fatal, noninfectious inflammatory disease of unknown etiology. NME has been reported only in a small number of dog breeds, which has led to the presumption that it is a breed‐restricted disorder.

Hypothesis/Objectives

Our objective was to describe histopathologically confirmed NME in dog breeds in which the condition has not been reported previously and to provide preliminary evidence that NME affects a wider spectrum of dog breeds than previously reported.

Animals

Four dogs with NME.

Methods

Archives from 3 institutions and from 1 author''s (BS) collection were reviewed to identify histopathologically confirmed cases of NME in breeds in which the disease has not been reported previously. Age, sex, breed, survival from onset of clinical signs, and histopathologic findings were evaluated.

Results

Necrotizing meningoencephalitis was identified in 4 small dog breeds (Papillon, Shih Tzu, Coton de Tulear, and Brussels Griffon). Median age at clinical evaluation was 2.5 years. Histopathologic abnormalities included 2 or more of the following: lymphoplasmacytic or histiocytic meningoencephalitis or encephalitis, moderate‐to‐severe cerebrocortical necrosis, variable involvement of other anatomic locations within the brain (cerebellum, brainstem), and absence of detectable infectious agents.

Conclusions and Clinical Importance

Until now, NME has only been described in 5 small dog breeds. We document an additional 4 small breeds previously not shown to develop NME. Our cases further illustrate that NME is not a breed‐restricted disorder and should be considered in the differential diagnosis for dogs with signalment and clinical signs consistent with inflammatory brain disease.
