The Effect of Lecithin Supplementation on the Biochemical Profile and Morphological Changes in the Liver of Rats Fed Different Animal Fats

Sixty-four Wistar rats were divided into 8 equal groups and kept for 36 days in individual boxes. Three of the groups were given full synthetic diets containing various animal fats: beef tallow, pork fat or fish oil. A control group was fed the diets without the fat. The other four groups were fed the same diets with lecithin supplementation. At the end of experiment, sections taken from the liver were stained with haematoxylin–eosin and Sudan III to indicate fat infiltration. Liver enzyme levels, total bilirubin, albumin and two products of lipd metabolism were measured in serum from all the animals. The addition of lecithin to the diets did not influence the level of enzymes in the serum except in rats fed the diet containing beef tallow. A relationship between the type of diet, lecithin supplementation and the total cholesterol concentration in serum was observed. The concentration of HDL-cholesterol was only influenced by lecithin supplementation and that of triglycerides by the type of fat in the diet. The addition of lecithin to the diet was associated with proliferation of Kupffer cells, and an increased number of binuclear cells. Fatty degeneration of hepatocytes was less pronounced in all groups following lecithin supplementation. Lecithin supplementation of the diet did not elicit any pathological lesions and may be considered as a hepatocyte protector. This favourable effect of lecithin was most marked in the group of rats fed the fish oil.     

Embryo Transplantation in Cattle: Non-Surgical Recovery of Embryos From Repeat Breeders

Fourteen true repeat breeders with entirely normal oestrous cyclicity more than 1 year after calving and 14 control donor cows were superovulated with PMSG (2000 i.u.) and flushed non-surgically 6–8 days after the superovulatory heat. The superovulatory response was identical for the 2 groups such as assessed by the number of corpora lutea (9.4 ± 1.8 C.L. per repeat breeder and 9.1 ± 1.5 per control cow), occurrence of ovarian overstimulation (polycysts), presence of a non-countable amount of corpora lutea, negative outcome of the flushings and the number of recovered embryos (5.8 ± 1.0 embryos per repeat breeder and 6.0 ± 1.8 embryos per control cow). The most pronounced difference between the 2 categories of animals was related to the fertilization rate of embryos. In the repeat breeder group only 2.4 embryos per cow or 41 % were fertilized, whereas the control animals attained a fertilization rate of 4.9 embryos or 82 %. Since most factors liable to interfere with the fertilization process were identical for both groups (age, breed, nutritional and management conditions, semen quality, dose, AI-technician e.g.), it is believed that intraovarian, follicular, or follicular-dynamic conditions were responsible for producing a high proportion of non-fertilizable oocytes.     

Accumulation of Sapogenin Conjugates and Histological Changes in the Liver and Kidneys of Lambs Suffering from Alveld,a Hepatogenous Photosensitization Disease of Sheep Grazing Narthecium ossifragum

Sixteen lambs exhibiting hepatogenous photosensitization (alveld) after grazing pasture containing Narthecium ossifragum and seven nonphotosensitized lambs grazing the same pastures were studied. All the alveld-affected lambs revealed liver damage dominated by single cell necrosis, portal fibroplasia and bile duct proliferation. Crystalloid clefts were demonstrated in the bile ducts of two and in the hepatocytes and Kupffer cells of nine photosensitized lambs. Plasma bilirubin concentration was severely increased in ten of the cases of alveld whereas the activity of aspartate aminotransferase was moderately to severely increased in seven cases. The activity of glutamate dehydrogenase was moderately elevated in one of the photosensitized lambs. The main histopathological findings in the kidneys from the alveld-affected lambs were dilated tubules, often with eosinophilic material in the tubular lumina. Regenerative changes were seen in a large proportion of the renal sections. Elevated plasma concentrations of urea and creatinine, and the renal histopathological changes, suggested that the photosensitized lambs had been through a phase of renal injury. Analysis of the free and conjugated sapogenin content in liver tissue and bile was performed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. There were significantly higher concentrations of conjugated episapogenins in both the liver and bile in the alveld-affected lambs than in the nonphotosensitized lambs.     

Xylitol intoxication associated with fulminant hepatic failure in a dog

Objective: To describe a case of xylitol intoxication causing fulminant hepatic failure in a dog. Case summary: A 2.5‐year‐old castrated male English Springer Spaniel weighing 26 kg, was presented after ingestion of half of a loaf of bread containing the sweetener xylitol. Toxic effects of the xylitol in this dog included vomiting, mild hypoglycemia and fulminant hepatic failure. Clinical management of acute hepatic failure and subsequent coagulopathy with supportive care and fresh frozen plasma is described. The dog was discharged 3 days after admission after a full clinical recovery. New or unique information provided: This paper describes the clinical consequence and successful treatment of fulminant hepatic failure in a dog following ingestion of xylitol.

辛硫磷慢性暴露对大鼠肝脏氧化应激的影响

本试验旨在研究辛硫磷(Phoxim)对大鼠的毒性作用,探讨辛硫磷中毒的氧化应激机制。将36只SD大鼠分成对照组和2个染毒组,染毒组大鼠分别以30(低剂量组)和300μmol/kg体重剂量(高剂量组)灌服辛硫磷,连续灌服153、0 d后,分别测定血浆和肝脏胆碱酯酶(ChE)、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px)活性和丙二醛(MDA)含量,并观察肝脏组织学变化。结果表明:辛硫磷染毒后大鼠血浆和肝脏ChE活性均极显著降低(P<0.01),尤其是高剂量染毒组,大鼠血浆ChE最大降低至对照组的22%,肝匀浆中ChE活性降低至对照组的75%。大鼠血浆和肝脏SOD、GSH-Px活性变化随染毒时间延长呈下降趋势,血浆和肝脏MDA含量均呈上升趋势。组织学检查显示辛硫磷可造成肝细胞脂肪变性。本研究表明,大鼠辛硫磷持续染毒可以诱导机体脂质过氧化增强,并导致肝脏结构损伤,说明氧化应激在辛硫磷的肝脏毒性中发挥着重要作用。
