Effect of growth hormone administration to mature miniature Brahman cattle treated with or without insulin on circulating concentrations of insulin-like growth factor-I and other metabolic hormones and metabolites

Previously, we determined that a primary cause of proportional stunted growth in a line of Brahman cattle was related to an apparent refractoriness in metabolic response to GH in young animals. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of administration of GH, insulin (INS), and GH plus INS to mature miniature Brahman cows (n = 6; 9.7 ± 2.06 y; 391 ± 48.6 kg) and bulls (n = 8; 9.4 ± 2.00 y; 441 ± 54.0 kg) on circulating concentrations of metabolic hormones and metabolites, primarily IGF-I and IGF-I binding proteins. We hypothesized that IGF-I secretion could be enhanced by concomitant administration of exogenous GH and INS, and neither alone would be effective. Animals were allotted to a modified crossover design that included four treatments: control (CON), GH, INS, and GH + INS. At the start of the study, one-half of the cattle were administered GH (Posilac; 14-d slow release) and the other one-half served as CON for 7 d. Beginning on day 8, and for 7 d, INS (Novolin L) was administered (0.125 IU/kg BW) twice daily (7:00 AM and 7:00 PM) to all animals; hence, the INS and GH + INS treatments. Cattle were rested for 14 d and then were switched to the reciprocal crossover treatments. Blood samples were collected at 12-hour intervals during the study. Compared with CON, GH treatment increased (P < 0.01) mean plasma concentrations of GH (11.1 vs 15.7 ± 0.94 ng/mL), INS (0.48 vs 1.00 ± 0.081 ng/mL), IGF-I (191.3 vs 319.3 ± 29.59 ng/mL), and glucose (73.9 vs 83.4 ± 2.12 mg/dL) but decreased (P < 0.05) plasma urea nitrogen (14.2 vs 11.5 ± 0.75 mg/dL). Compared with INS, GH + INS treatment increased (P < 0.05) mean plasma concentration of INS (0.71 vs 0.96 ± 0.081 ng/mL), IGF-I (228.7 vs 392.3 ± 29.74 ng/mL), and glucose (48.1 vs 66.7 ± 2.12 mg/dL), decreased (P < 0.01) plasma urea nitrogen (13.6 vs 10.4 ± 0.76 mg/dL), and did not affect GH (13.5 vs 12.7 ± 0.95 ng/mL). In the miniature Brahman model, both the GH and GH + INS treatments dramatically increased circulating concentrations of IGF-I in mature cattle, suggesting that this line of Brahman cattle is capable of responding to bioactive GH.

STAT6介导的巨噬细胞极化对布鲁氏菌胞内存活的影响

旨在探讨STAT6介导的巨噬细胞极化对布鲁氏菌胞内生存的影响。本研究采用布鲁氏菌光滑株S2308（S2308）和粗糙型疫苗株RB51（RB51）侵染巨噬细胞。利用qRT-PCR检测M1型巨噬细胞标志因子p65、NOS2和IL-1β,M2型巨噬细胞标志因子STAT6、ARG1、IL-10的mRNA表达水平;流式细胞术检测M1型标记分子CD86和M2型标记分子CD206的表达;Western blot检测p-STAT6蛋白及抑制剂AS对蛋白的抑制作用;ELISA检测M1型细胞因子TNF-α、IL-12和M2型细胞因子IL-4、IL-10的表达量;最后对胞内菌落进行CFU计数。qRT-PCR结果显示,在感染8、12 h时可显著诱导M1型因子mRNA转录表达,72 h时低表达,而M2型因子在72 h时高表达;流式细胞术结果显示,S2308感染12 h可显著诱导CD86的表达,感染72 h可显著诱导CD206的表达,但RB51对二者无影响;Western blot结果显示,S2308菌株在感染72 h时激活STAT6信号通路,而RB51几乎不激活该通路,抑制剂AS在2 μmol·L^-1浓度时抑制效果最佳;ELISA结果显示,AS抑制剂可显著抑制IL-4、IL-10的释放,并促进TNF-α、IL-12的释放;CFU计数结果显示,S2308组的胞内菌呈先降低后显著上升趋势,加入AS抑制剂后可显著抑制布鲁氏菌胞内复制。布鲁氏菌S2308在感染后期能够通过STAT6诱导M1型巨噬细胞向M2型转化,并促进Th2型细胞因子的释放,从而有利于布鲁氏菌的胞内生存。而RB51几乎不激活该通路,不影响胞内生存。     

Glucose homeostasis and the enteroinsular axis in the horse: A possible role in equine metabolic syndrome

One of the principal components of equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) is hyperinsulinaemia combined with insulin resistance. It has long been known that hyperinsulinaemia occurs after the development of insulin resistance. But it is also known that hyperinsulinaemia itself can induce insulin resistance and obesity and might play a key role in the development of metabolic syndrome. This review focuses on the physiology of glucose and insulin metabolism and the pathophysiological mechanisms in glucose homeostasis in the horse (compared with what is already known in humans) in order to gain insight into the pathophysiological principles underlying EMS. The review summarizes new insights on the oral uptake of glucose by the gut and the enteroinsular axis, the role of diet in incretin hormone and postprandial insulin responses, the handling of glucose by the liver, muscle and fat tissue, and the production and secretion of insulin by the pancreas under healthy and disrupted glucose homeostatic conditions in horses.

Effects of Ω-3 (n-3) Fatty Acid Supplementation on Insulin Sensitivity in Horses

The objective of this study was to examine the effects of dietary ω-3 fatty acid supplementation on insulin sensitivity (SI) in horses. Twenty-one mares were blocked by age, body weight (BW), and body condition score (BCS) and randomly assigned to one of three dietary treatments. Treatments consisted of (1) 38 g of n-3 fatty acids via fish and algae supplement and diet (MARINE), (2) 38 g of n-3 fatty acids via a flaxseed meal from the supplement and diet (FLAX), and (3) control (CON) no supplemental fatty acid. Treatments were supplemented for 90 days. Frequent sampling intravenous glucose tolerance tests were performed on days 0, 30, 60, and 90. Blood samples were analyzed for glucose and insulin. The minimal model was applied for the glucose and insulin curves using MinMod Millennium. SI increased 39% (P < .007) across all treatment groups. Acute insulin response to glucose decreased 22% (P < .006) between days 30 and 60 and increased (P = .040) again at day 90. Disposition index (combined SI and β pancreatic response) increased (P = .03) by 53% in the MARINE- and 48% in the FLAX-supplemented horses and did not change with time in the CON group. In insulin-resistant mares, MARINE- and FLAX-treated horses had an increase in SI (P = .09). It would be interesting to test this supplement in a larger group of insulin-resistant horses. If proven effective, supplementation with ω-3 fatty acids would help to reduce problems associated with insulin resistance in horses.
