酸枣仁散对运输应激大鼠脑内5-HT表达的影响

为研究运输应激对脑内五羟色胺(5-hydroxytryptamine,5-HT)表达的影响及酸枣仁散对运输应激的调控作用,试验采用摇床模拟公路运输途中的摇晃、高温和拥挤等因素,建立大鼠运输应激模型(35℃,60r/min,每天应激2h,连续7d)。将40只大鼠随机分为对照组、酸枣仁组、应激组和应激+酸枣仁组,分别处理7d后,断头取脑,利用酶联免疫吸附法(ELISA)和免疫组化法检测各组大鼠脑区5-HT含量变化及分布。酶联免疫吸附法检测结果显示,与对照组相比,应激组大鼠中缝核、海马和纹状体等脑区5-HT表达量均明显减少(P0.05),应激+酸枣仁组较应激组5-HT表达量显著增加(P0.05)。免疫组化结果显示,在中缝背核及其亚核DRDsh、DRv和DRc亚核,应激组大鼠5-HT灰度值与对照组相比显著下降(P0.05),应激+酸枣仁组与应激组相比显著上升(P0.05)。以上结果表明,运输应激可以导致中枢神经系统部分脑区5-HT含量下降,而酸枣仁散可能通过上调脑内5-HT的含量来调控运输应激。     

妊娠后期营养限制对蒙古绵羊胎儿生物原胺类神经递质的影响

本试验旨在研究妊娠后期营养限制对蒙古绵羊胎儿生物原胺类神经递质的影响。选择健康、体况相近的蒙古绵羊18只,对其进行同期发情、配种后,从妊娠第90天开始,随机分为3个组:营养限制1组[NG1组,n=6,代谢能(ME)=0.175 MJ/(kg BW 0.75·d)]、营养限制2组[NG2组,n=6,ME=0.330 MJ/(kg BW 0.75·d)]和对照组[CG组,n=6,ME=0.670 MJ/(kg BW 0.75·d)],在妊娠第140天时屠宰,取各组胎儿及其脑组织和血液。结果显示:NG1组胎儿的脑重较CG组显著增高(P<0.05),并且NG1组胎儿脑中5-羟色胺(5-HT)(P<0.01)、肾上腺素(EPI)(P<0.05)含量显著或极显著高于CG组,去甲肾上腺素(NA)的含量极显著低于CG组(P<0.01)。NG2组胎儿脑中5-HT含量极显著高于CG组(P<0.01),而NA(P<0.01)、多巴胺(DA)(P<0.05)含量显著或极显著低于CG组。另外,NG1组胎儿血浆中5-HT(P<0.01)、EPI(P<0.01)、NA(P<0.05)、DA(P<0.01)含量显著或极显著低于CG组;NG2组胎儿血浆中5-HT(P<0.01)、NA(P<0.01)、DA(P<0.05)含量显著或极显著低于CG组。由此得出,妊娠后期营养限制使得蒙古绵羊胎儿脑中5-HT、EPI含量升高和NA含量降低,血浆中5-HT、EPI、NA、DA含量降低。

Structural Effects of N-Arylcarbamoylpyrazolines on Calcium Uptake in Rat Brain Synaptosomes

N-Arylcarbamoylpyrazolines with various substituents at the para position of the carbamoyl benzene ring inhibited ATP-dependent Ca²⁺-uptake in synaptosomes prepared from the rat brain. The activity of these compounds was evaluated as log(1/I₅₀), the reciprocal logarithm of half inhibitory concentration, I₅₀ (m ), from the concentration–response curve for the inhibition of Ca²⁺-uptake. Among the compounds tested, methyl 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-methyl-1-[N-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)carbamoyl]-2-pyrazoline-4-carboxylate was the most potent, the I₅₀ value of which as 9·12×10⁻⁷ m . Variations in the activity in terms of log(1/I₅₀) were quantitatively analysed using a substituent parameter, showing that the higher the electron-withdrawing effect of the substituent, the higher was the activity. The substituent effects were similar to those on insecticidal activity against the Americal cockroach. The higher the inhibitory activity against Ca²⁺ uptake, the higher seemed to be the insecticidal activity. Methyl(4S) - 3 - (4 - chlorophenyl) - 4 - methyl - 1 - [N - (4 - chlorophenyl)carbamoyl] - 2 - pyrazoline -4-carboxylate had higher inhibitory activity against Ca²⁺-uptake and higher in-secticidal activity than the R-isomer, but the difference was greater in theCa²⁺-uptake system.     

在斑马鱼仔鱼脑部异体移植胚胎细胞的尝试

为建立斑马鱼(Danio rerio)脑部细胞移植模型,先用红色荧光染料标记供体胚胎细胞,再移植细胞到AB品系和两种转基因斑马鱼仔鱼脑部。荧光显微镜和组织学切片观察发现移植细胞沿组织或细胞间隙而不是通过血管向周围组织扩散,但细胞增殖分化不明显。在细胞移植24 h后,脑部组织学结构与对照组无明显差别。带有白血病基因的胚胎细胞在AB仔鱼的脑部没有产生肿瘤样增生和转移。相比之下,正常胚胎细胞在白血病模型的仔鱼脑部非白血病细胞聚集区出现较多增殖和迁移。这些结果提示脑局部微环境不支持移植细胞的增殖分化;细胞移植只能弥补局部细胞的空疏而不能用作细胞替代治疗。

Determining cessation of brain activity during depopulation or euthanasia of broilers using accelerometers

The threat of avian influenza virus is a major concern for poultry growers worldwide. In response to avian influenza virus outbreaks in the United States and the existence of zoonotic strains causing human infection and death in Eastern Asia, a mass emergency depopulation method using water-based foam was developed for floor-reared broilers and turkeys. During foam depopulation, birds cannot be observed directly. As a result, several methods for monitoring bird activity during field depopulation research were explored. Accelerometers were found to be a simple, effective means of detecting motion and subsequently the cessation of motion after terminal convulsions ceased. In a previous study, it was shown that motion cessation may coincide with a lack of measureable brain activity. In this study, broilers were monitored with electroencephalograph, electrocardiograph, and motion sensors and treated with 1 of 3 methods of depopulation or euthanasia (Ar-CO₂ gas, CO₂ gas, or water-based foam). The differences between the accelerometer motion cessation and electrocardiogram signal stabilization were significant, as were the differences between motion cessation and electroencephalogram silence. Although the differences are statistically significant, these do not invalidate the use of an accelerometer to detect cessation of measurable brain activity during depopulation or euthanasia research.
