应用胞质内精子注射 (intracytoplasmic sperm injection,ICSI)技术探讨了水牛卵母细胞胞质与注射精子间的相互作用以及 ICSI精子的形态变化。ICSI后 13h,5 9.4 %的精子头部已膨大 ,且有 18.8%的精子进入解聚状态。雌雄原核发育不同步 ,雄原核在 ICSI后 16 h和 19h的形成率分别为 3.2 %和 4 0 .0 % ;雌原核在 ICSI后 13h已达到 71.9% ,16 h时提高到 90 .3%。经离子霉素与 6 - DMAP联合激活 ,ICSI后 19h产生的胚胎核型以 2 PN PB1 为主 ,其雌原核形成 (激活 )率为 91.3% ,雄原核形成率为 4 0 .0 % ,5 1.3%为孤雌胚。用 5 mm ol/ L 的 DTT预处理精子 1h,可提高精子的解聚率 (30 .9%比 12 .7% ,P<0 .0 5 ) ,但对雄原核的形成率无显著影响 (33.3%比 32 .7% ,P>0 .0 5 )。结果表明 ,水牛精子 ICSI后的雄原核形成时间晚于卵子雌原核形成时间 ,且其比率低于卵子 ,DTT处理精子能提高其解聚率 ,但对雄原核形成无影响     

CD117‐ and vimentin‐positive telocytes in the bovine teat sphincter

Mastitis is a common economically relevant problem in dairy farming. As the major entry for pathogens is the papillary duct, one of the first defence mechanisms is the teat sphincter. This sphincter shows a rhythmic contractility of yet unknown origin. Searching for possible modulatory pacemaker cells, teat sphincters of eight cows were stained immunohistochemically with antibodies against CD117 and vimentin and evaluated microscopically for the presence of telocytes. CD117‐ and vimentin‐positive telocytes with telopodes were found in close contact with smooth muscle cells. Our findings present a first evidence of telocytes in the teat of bovines.     

Improved milk production through PG–PL system by provision of in‐house shelter management in lactating Murrah buffaloes during winter season

Comprehensive information on the role of β‐casein and plasminogen–plasmin (PG–PL) system in milk secretion of Murrah buffaloes during winter season is lacking, although effects of cold stress can be ameliorated to an extent by altering microclimate at farm level. Hence, this study was aimed to determine the changes in productivity along with PG–PL system of milk, plasma hormones and metabolites of buffaloes during winter (December–January) season under two different management systems. Average minimum temperature and wind chill index during this season were 7.02 and 12.74 °C respectively. Buffaloes were divided in two groups of six animals each: control and treatment, where treatment group animals were placed in‐house with floor bedding of paddy straw and the control group animals in loose housing system without straw bedding. Physiological responses were recorded, and milk and blood samples were collected at weekly intervals for six‐week experimental period. Under in‐house management system, buffaloes experienced better comfort by alleviating environmental stress as their physiological responses such as respiration rate and pulse rate were significantly reduced (p < 0.01) as compared to the control, which subsequently resulted higher milk yield by 9.92% (p < 0.05). Analysis of milk samples revealed higher concentration of plasminogen (10.6 vs. 8.05 μg/ml; p < 0.01) and β‐casein (p < 0.05), and lower plasmin level (0.299 vs. 0.321 μg/ml; p < 0.05) in buffaloes under treatment group. It was also found that plasma cortisol, glucose and non‐esterified fatty acids levels were higher (p < 0.01) in control group as compared to the treatment animals by 13.6%, 8.14% and 12.6% respectively. However, milk composition, growth hormone, epinephrine and norepinephrine level in plasma were similar in both the groups. Hence, it may be concluded that provision of in‐house shelter management with floor bedding of paddy straw during winter was effective to minimize environmental stress and improved milk production through manipulation of PG–PL system in buffaloes.
