Gene expression profiles in early (12 d after sowing, DAS), mature (35 DAS) and senescent (77 DAS) soybean ( Glycine max (L.) Merr. cv. Enrei) root nodules were analyzed using Lotus japonicus cDNA macroarray. The cDNA macroarray membranes contained 18,144 independent cDNAs of L. japonicus isolated from various organs. The membranes were hybridized to 33 P-labeled single-strand cDNAs transcribed from mRNA extracted from the soybean root nodules at three different growth stages. The results showed that over 75% of the cDNA clones gave a relative signal intensity (RSI) lower than 300, irrespective of the soybean growth stage. cDNA with an RSI value over 5,000 accounted for 2.1, 1.2 and 0.5% of the total cDNA clones at 12, 35 and 77 DAS, respectively. The highest RSI value was detected in a clone hybridized to putative pectinesterase (MWM097c10_r) at 12 DAS, while the RSI value of lycopene β-cyclase (MWL025d06_r) was the highest at 35 and 77 DAS. At 77 DAS, the percentage of transferase gene cDNA clones accounted for 20.5% of the total cDNA clones showing an RSI value over 500, a value clearly lower than that at 12 and 35 DAS. On the other hand, the percentage of hydrolase gene cDNA clones accounted for 45.2% at 77 DAS, a value around 1.5 times higher than that at 12 and 35 DAS. The chronological RSI profiles of individual cDNA clones were classified into nine patterns, and the profiles of the cDNA clones belonging to 15 homologous gene groups encoding enzymes of nitrogen and carbon metabolism, nodule specific proteins, enzymes of RNA and protein hydrolysis, and synthesis of jasmonic acid precursor were compared within and between groups. As a result, significant variations both within- and between-groups were revealed. 相似文献

Streptococcosis is an important bacterial disease in Nile tilapia causing severe economic losses to tilapia aquaculture worldwide. The effects of water quality (low‐ [LS] and high‐level [HS] soiling, to mimic clean or dirty surface conditions and temperatures) and disinfectant application (diluted concentrations and exposure time) were characterized on the inactivation of Streptococcus agalactiae isolated from diseased tilapia. Five isolates were tested against three commercial disinfectant products with the main ingredients being povidone iodine (Anidine 100?; AD), benzalkonium chloride (Better BKC 80%?; BKC 80), and a mixture of quaternary ammonium compounds and glutaraldehyde (Chloraldehyde?; CR). CR demonstrated highest efficacy to S. agalactiae inactivation, followed by BKC 80 and AD, respectively. Higher‐level soiling, low temperature, diluted concentrations and short exposure time all decreased the disinfectant efficacy. CR and BKC 80 provided more than 5‐log inactivation at 1‐min exposure at 20°C under HS conditions, and also with ten‐fold‐diluted concentrations at 60‐min exposure time at 30°C. However, AD required 10‐min exposure to effectively remove bacteria under LS conditions at 30°C. The results could facilitate aquaculture management planning that leads to operating cost reductions and improvements in biosecurity. 相似文献

This study aimed to obtain information about the types of spirochaetes colonising urban dogs in Thailand, and to investigate their pathogenic potential in a day-old chick model of intestinal spirochaetosis. Spirochaetes were isolated from the faeces of six of 47 (12.8%) healthy dogs and 11 of 104 (10.6%) dogs with diarrhoea. Their biochemical properties and 16S ribosomal DNA sequences were analysed. Four isolates were identified as Brachyspira pilosicoli, three resembled "Brachyspira pulli", nine clustered with "Brachyspira canis" and one was similar to Brachyspira intermedia. Canine isolates of B. pilosicoli, "B. canis" and "B. pulli", and control strains of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae, B. pilosicoli and Brachyspira innocens colonised experimentally infected day-old chicks. The chicks did not develop diarrhoea, but were significantly lighter than the non-infected group and those infected with B. innocens after 21 days (P<0.05). Using immunohistochemistry, spirochaetes were observed covering the surface epithelium and in the crypts of chicks in all three groups challenged with the canine isolates. Variable histopathological changes were seen, with the greatest inflammatory cell infiltration into the lamina propria occurring in the group infected with "B. pulli". Canine "B. canis", "B. pulli" and B. pilosicoli isolates may have pathogenic potential. 相似文献

Tilapia lake virus (TiLV) is a highly contagious pathogen that has detrimental effects on tilapia farming. This virus was discovered in 2014 and has received tremendous global attention from the aquaculture sector due to its association with high fish mortalities and its strong economic impact on the tilapia aquaculture industry. Currently, TiLV has been reported in 16 countries, and this number is continuing to rise due to improved diagnostic assays and surveillance activities around the world. In this review, we summarize the up-to-date knowledge of TiLV with regard to TiLV host species, the clinical signs of a TiLV infection, the affected tissues, pathogenesis and potential disease risk factors. We also describe the reported information concerning the virus itself: its morphology, genetic make-up and transmission pathways. We review the current methods for virus detection and potential control measures. We close the review of the TiLV story so far, by offering a commentary on the major TiLV research gaps, why these are delaying future TiLV research and why the TiLV field needs to come together and proceed as a more collaborative scientific community if there is any hope limiting the impact of this serious virus. 相似文献

ObjectivesTo determine the percentage of cells undergoing apoptosis within canine myxomatous valves and to evaluate whether TGFβ1 can be implicated as an anti-apoptosic signal through the Bcl-2 family of signaling proteins.AnimalsPost-mortem mitral valve leaflets harvested from 5 normal dogs, 5 dogs with early-stage myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD), and 5 dogs with late-stage MMVD.Materials and methodsThe number of cells expressing cleaved caspase-3, DNA fragmentation (TUNEL marker) and apoptotic bodies were evaluated as a measure of apoptosis. To evaluate the relationship between TGFβ1 signaling and apoptosis, the abundance of activated TGFβ1 signaling protein, phosphorylated Smad 2/3 (p-Smad 2/3), and Bcl-2 family proteins (pro-apoptotic Bax and anti-apoptotic Bcl-2) was determined by immunohistochemistry.ResultsCells in normal and both stages of MMVD expressed the TUNEL marker and cleaved caspase-3, but not apoptotic bodies. The percentage of TUNEL marker and cleaved caspase-3 positive nuclei was not significantly different between groups of dogs (p > 0.05). P-Smad 2/3 and Bax were more abundant in myxomatous mitral valves while Bcl-2 was less abundant. P-Smad 2/3 primarily increased in the atrialis layer and was abundantly increased only in late-stage MMVD.ConclusionsThese data suggest that interstitial cells in MMVD are in a pro-apoptotic condition; however, they do not execute apoptosis. Thus, apoptosis does not explain differences in cellular density in canine MMVD. TGFβ1 signaling through the canonical SMAD pathway is increased in myxomatous mitral valves, but does not apparently mediate interstitial cell apoptosis in canine MMVD. 相似文献

Objective
This study aimed to evaluate cardiac function and compare the concentration of cardiac biomarkers including cardiac troponin I (cTnI), galectin-3 (Gal-3), and N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptides (NT-proBNP) in diabetic and control dogs.Animals
Thirty-nine dogs were included. The diabetic and control groups consisted of 19 and 20 dogs, respectively.Methods
Plasma cTnI, Gal-3, and NT-proBNP concentrations were measured in the diabetic and control groups. Echocardiography was performed in all dogs to evaluate cardiac structure and function. Echocardiographic values and cardiac biomarker concentrations between the two groups were compared with the Mann–Whitney U test. The p-value < 0.05 was considered statistical significance.Results
No evidence of cardiac structural changes was detected in diabetic dogs on two-dimensional echocardiography. The echocardiographic values of diabetic and control dogs were within reference intervals. Echocardiographic changes indicating diastolic dysfunction assessed by spectral flow Doppler echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging were found in diabetic dogs (42.10%) compared with control dogs (10.00%; p = 0.022). Diabetic dogs with durations of diabetes mellitus > 1 year had an increased left ventricular wall thickness and echocardiographic changes suggesting diastolic dysfunction compared with those with duration of diabetes mellitus < 1 year. No evidence of systolic dysfunction was detected in diabetic dogs. No significant difference in plasma cTnI, Gal-3, and NT-proBNP concentrations was found between the two groups.Conclusions
Echocardiographic changes suggested that left ventricular diastolic dysfunction was detected in diabetic dogs without changes in the concentration of cardiac biomarkers including cTnI, Gal-3, and NT-proBNP compared with the age- and breed-matched control dogs. 相似文献9.

BACKGROUND: Age and heart rate have effects on myocardial velocities as assessed by color tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) in people. A similar phenomenon has been identified when left ventricular velocities are assessed in cats. To date, the effects of age and heart rate on tricuspid annular velocities of cats have not been assessed. OBJECTIVES: This study was designed to determine the relationships between age and heart rate and tricuspid annular velocities in cats as assessed by 2-dimensional (2D) color TDI. ANIMALS: Fifty healthy nonsedated cats with age range from 3 months to 19 years old were studied. METHODS: Tricuspid annular velocities were obtained with 2D color TDI. Effects of age and heart rate on tricuspid annular velocities were evaluated by simple linear regression. The strength of the linear relationship was determined by using coefficient of determination (R2). RESULTS: A significant weak negative relationship was found between age and peak early diastolic annular velocity (E'; R2 = 0.135, P = .018). No significant relationships between age and right ventricular (RV) systolic TDI values were found. Diastolic and systolic TDI parameters were not affected by heart rate with the exception of deceleration rate of early diastolic motion (DR; R2 = 0.100, P = .025). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: Age and heart rate have minimal effects on tricuspid annular velocities. The present study provides reference ranges for tricuspid annular velocities in healthy cats and information for assessing the clinical utility of color TDI for evaluation of RV function in cats. 相似文献
