为研究IGFBP-3基因表达与鸡生长性状的相关性,以生长速度差异较大的花山麻鸡和清远麻鸡两个黄羽肉鸡品种为研究素材,用实时荧光定量PCR法检测胚胎期和出雏后两个品种鸡胸肌和肝脏中IGFBP-3基因的表达规律,并将其与体重、胸肌重和肝脏重进行相关性分析。结果表明,在9胚龄时两个品种鸡胸肌和肝脏中均可检测到IGFBP-3基因表达,同一胚龄或日龄品种内组织间比较,胚胎期两个品种鸡胸肌IGFBP-3 mRNA表达量均高于肝脏,出雏后肝脏IGFBP-3 mRNA表达量迅速上升,胸肌IGFBP-3 mRNA表达量下降,两个品种鸡肝脏IGFBP-3 mRNA表达量均极显著高于胸肌(P<0.01);组织中IGFBP-3 mRNA表达量与组织重量和体重相关研究表明,两个品种鸡肝脏IGFBP-3 mRNA表达量与其胸肌重、肝脏重和体重呈显著或极显著正相关(P<0.05;P<0.01),胸肌IGFBP-3 mRNA表达量与其胸肌重、肝脏重和体重均呈极显著负相关(P<0.01)。研究结果揭示,IGFBP-3 mRNA在鸡中的表达具有品种、年龄和组织特异性,出雏前肝脏并不是鸡产生IGFBP-3的主要器官,出雏后鸡IGFBP-3可能主要由肝脏合成,肝脏中IGFBP-3 mRNA水平差异是导致两个品种鸡出雏后体重和胸肌重差异的重要因素。  相似文献

The MyoD and Myf6 genes, which are muscle regulatory factors (MRFs), play major roles in muscle growth and development and initiate muscle fibre formation via the regulation of muscle‐specific gene translation. Therefore, MyoD and Myf6 are potential candidate genes for meat production traits in animals and poultry. The objective of this study was to evaluate MyoD and Myf6 gene expression patterns in the skeletal muscle during early developmental stage of ducks. Gene expression levels were detected using the quantitative RT‐PCR method in the breast muscle (BM) and leg muscle (LM) at embryonic days 13, 17, 21, 25, 27, as well as at 1 week posthatching in Gaoyou and Jinding ducks (Anas platyrhynchos domestica). The MyoD and Myf6 gene profiles in the two duck breeds were consistent during early development, and MyoD gene expression showed a ‘wave’ trend in BM and an approximate ‘anti‐√’ trend in LM. Myf6 gene expression in BM showed the highest level at embryonic day 21, which subsequently decreased, although remained relatively high, while levels at embryonic days 13, 17 and 21 were higher in LM. The results of correlation analysis showed that MyoD and Myf6 gene expression levels were more strongly correlated in LM than in BM in both duck breeds. These results indicated that different expression patterns of the MyoD and Myf6 genes in BM and LM may be related to muscle development and differentiation, suggesting that MyoD and Myf6 are integral to skeletal muscle development.  相似文献

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons arise in the olfactory placode, migrate into the preoptic area (POA), and then extend axons to the median eminence during embryogenesis. Little information is available concerning the properties of GnRH neurons during the late gestational period when GnRH neurons reach the POA and form neuronal networks, although many studies have examined such properties during earlier developmental stages or the postnatal period. The present study was performed to elucidate the involvement of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), one of the major neurotransmitters modifying GnRH neural activity, in regulation of GnRH gene expression on embryonic day 18.5 (E18.5) using transgenic rats expressing enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP) under the control of GnRH promoter. First, using RT-PCR, the mRNA of two isoforms of the GABA-synthesizing enzyme glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD), GAD65 and GAD67 was detected in E18.5 embryonic POA-containing tissues. GAD67-positive cells were also demonstrated in close vicinity to GnRH-positive cells by immunohistochemistry, and immunoreactivity for both the GABA-A and GABA-B receptor subunits was detected in GnRH neurons. Next, primary cultures derived from anterior hypothalamic tissue of E18.5 embryos were prepared, and the effects of GABA and its agonists on GnRH promoter activity were evaluated using EGFP expression as a marker. GABA and the GABA-A receptor agonist muscimol, but not the GABA-B receptor agonist baclofen, significantly increased the EGFP-positive/GnRH-positive cell ratio. These results suggest that GABA plays a role in stimulating GnRH gene expression through GABA-A receptors in embryonic GnRH neurons in late gestational stages.  相似文献

鸭胚骨骼肌不同组织Myf6基因表达的发育性变化研究   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
为研究Myf6基因对鸭肌肉发育的影响,本试验利用实时荧光定量PCR绝对定量技术检测Myf6基因在高邮鸭和金定鸭胚胎期第13、17、21、25、27天及出生后7日龄胸肌、腿肌发育过程中的表达量。结果显示,Myf6基因在2个品种的胸肌和腿肌中均有表达,在不同品种同一肌肉组织中的表达变化规律一致,而在不同肌肉组织中的表达模式不同,其中在胸肌组织中21胚龄时表达量最高,随后表达量下降,维持相对较高表达水平;在腿肌组织中13胚龄时表达量较高,17胚龄时达到最高,随后表达量有所降低,并在21胚龄后急速下降至极低水平,但其表达在胚胎期后期(27胚龄)及初生期(7日龄)又有缓慢上升趋势。上述结果表明,Myf6基因参与了胸、腿肌组织的发育,在胸、腿肌中表达模式不同,推测Myf6基因在胸、腿肌中的调控存在差异,可能与其胸、腿肌不同肌纤维的发育与分化有关。  相似文献

Ultrasonographic appearance of the bovine conceptus from days 10 through 20   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The bovine conceptus was monitored in 19 heifers by intrarectal ultrasonic imaging from the day an embryonic vesicle was first detected (mean, day 11.7 +/- 0.4; range, days 10 to 17) until detection of the embryo proper (mean, day 20.3 +/- 0.3). Fifteen heifers maintained the conceptus and 4 heifers apparently lost the conceptus. In the heifers that maintained the conceptus, 73% of the embryonic vesicles were classified as spherical (mean diameter, 2.8 +/- 0.2 mm) and 27% were classified as oblong (mean dimensions, 2.0 +/- 0.0 mm and 4.5 +/- 1.0 mm) on the day of first detection. All vesicles were in the uterine horn ipsilateral to the corpus luteum. The vesicles increased in length from the day of first detection. On the average, the vesicle occupied all of the ipsilateral uterine horn on day 16.9 +/- 0.6 and all of the contralateral horn on day 19.6 +/- 0.9. During elongation, the vesicle remained at an approximate height of 2 mm throughout its length, but developed a localized enlargement or bulge on mean day 19.7 +/- 0.2. The embryo proper was detected within the bulge in all 15 heifers. A heartbeat (mean, 188 +/- 4.8 beats/min) was detected on the first day of detection of the embryo proper (8 heifers) or on the following day (7 heifers). The mean length of the interovulatory interval in the 4 heifers that apparently lost the embryonic vesicle was not significantly different from that of nonbred heifers. The vesicles were lost (not ultrasonographically detectable) on days 17 (2 heifers) and 19 (2 heifers).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine growth of the alpaca conceptus during early gestation, using ultrasonography. ANIMALS: 40 pregnant alpacas (20 multiparous, 20 nulliparous). PROCEDURE: Transrectal ultrasonography with a 5-MHz probe was performed 3 times weekly from days 7 through 45 after copulation (day of copulation = day 0). Blood samples were collected for progesterone assay on days of ultrasonography. RESULTS: Forty embryonic vesicles and embryos were identified and measured. Embryonic vesicles were first detected on day 12 after copulation and appeared spherical. Cumulative percentage of embryonic vesicles detected was 50, 82.5, and 100% on days 12, 14, and 16, respectively. Embryos were first detected by day 22 and heartbeats by day 24. Similarly, cumulative percentage of embryos detected was 17.5, 82.5 and 100% for 22, 24, and 26 days after copulation, respectively. Embryonic vesicles occupied both uterine horns beginning on day 19. A positive correlation existed between length and width of embryonic vesicles. Size of embryonic vesicles and embryos and progesterone concentrations did not differ between multiparous and nulliparous females. Five sets of twins were detected from days 21 through 33 after copulation, but the conceptus identified in the right uterine horn became nondetectable between days 28 and 33. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Ultrasonography was useful in detecting the earliest appearance of alpaca embryonic vesicles and determining the changes in growth from days 12 through 45 after copulation. Embryos were first detected by day 22. Transrectal ultrasonography was not harmful to animals and did not provoke embryonic death in this study.  相似文献

The effect of light during incubation on embryonic and post‐embryonic development of White Leghorn chickens and Northern Bobwhite quail was determined. The treatments were: (a) 12 h light followed by 12 h dark (12L—12D), (b) 24 h light (24L—0D) and (c) 24 h dark (0L—24D) per day throughout incubation.

The development of the embryos of both species was accelerated by increasing the length of exposure to light during incubation. There were no differences in hatchability, weight at hatching, or at 4, 8, 12, 16 or 20 weeks of age. The incidence of healed navels was increased with greater length of exposure to light during incubation. No differences in egg production due to treatment were detected.  相似文献

Cytoplasmic Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) is an antioxidant enzyme that converts superoxide to hydrogen peroxide in cells. Its spatial distribution matches that of superoxide production, allowing it to protect cells from oxidative stress. SOD1 deficiencies result in embryonic lethality and a wide range of pathologies in mice, but little is known about normal SOD1 protein expression in developing embryos. In this study, the expression pattern of SOD1 was investigated in post-implantation mouse embryos and extraembryonic tissues, including placenta, using Western blotting and immunohistochemical analyses. SOD1 was detected in embryos and extraembryonic tissues from embryonic day (ED) 8.5 to 18.5. The signal in embryos was observed at the lowest level on ED 9.5-11.5, and the highest level on ED 17.5-18.5, while levels remained constant in the surrounding extraembryonic tissues during all developmental stages examined. Immunohistochemical analysis of SOD1 expression on ED 13.5-18.5 revealed its ubiquitous distribution throughout developing organs. In particular, high levels of SOD1 expression were observed in the ependymal epithelium of the choroid plexus, ganglia, sensory cells of the olfactory and vestibulocochlear epithelia, blood cells and vessels, hepatocytes and hematopoietic cells of the liver, lymph nodes, osteogenic tissues, and skin. Thus, SOD1 is highly expressed at late stages of embryonic development in a cell- and tissue-specific manner, and can function as an important antioxidant enzyme during organogenesis in mouse embryos.  相似文献

In chickens, although estrogen receptors (ER) are reported to be associated with the immunological processes, detailed information about the differences in ER expression in the tissues related to the development of lymphocytes is not fully known, especially during the developmental stage. To learn more about this immunological relationship, we used semi‐quantitative polymerase chain reaction method to detect the ER expression levels in the thymus tissues of chicks during the developmental stage. Furthermore, ER‐expressing cells were detected by immunohistochemistry. The results of this study show that the expression level of ER increased on embryonic day 16 and decreased on day 20. Furthermore, ER expression was significantly higher in male than in female chickens at day 16. The increased expression on day 16 and decreased level on day 20 were also reproduced in the incidence of immunoreactive cells, although there was a 1‐day delay in the elevated incidence of the cells. This study revealed the changes in ER expression and the incidence of ER‐positive cells in the thymus of chickens during the developmental stage.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to explore the hepatic lipolysis in broiler chickens with different fat deposition during embryonic development. The mRNA expression of CPT-1 (carmitine palmtoyltransferase-1), PPARα (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha) and LPL (lipoprotein lipase) genes were determined using Real time RT-PCR. The start of incubation was called day 1 (E1) and after hatching called day 1 (H1). On incubation days 9 (E9), 14 (E14) and 19 (E19) as well as at hatching (H1), samples of liver were collected. Blood samples were obtained during days 14 (E14) and 19 (E19) of embryonic development and at hatching. This study showed that serum TG (triglycerol) decreased and TC (total cholesterol) and NEFA (non-estered fatty acid) increased during embryonic development. The expression of CPT-1, PPARα and LPL genes exhibited different developmental changes. For example, little LPL gene was expressed at hatching and PPARα gene expression peaked before hatching. However, CPT-1 gene exhibited no significance during the embryonic development. Our results showed that expression of these genes in Arbor Acres (AA) broilers was significantly higher than that in San Huang (SH) broilers. Therefore, this study suggested that hepatic lipolysis in broiler chickens exhibited developmental changes during embryogenesis and breed difference which may be one of the factors in the fat deposition difference between fat line and lean line broilers during embryonic development.  相似文献

The in situ distribution of NK cells in rat liver during the first 28 days of an experimental infection with F hepatica was investigated. NK cells were distributed homogeneously throughout the hepatic parenchyma in uninfected animals. The total number of hepatic mononuclear cells increased significantly following infection, but the proportion of NK cells did not change. After infection, these cells were found around the portal space, around the centrolobular vein, in the periportal fibrosis and in the band of collagen. However, no NK cells could be detected in or around the granuloma during infection. The frequency of both I L-2- and IFNgamma-producing NK cells was higher on day 7 postinfection (pi) but only the percentage of IFNgamma -CD161+ subsets remained elevated thereafter, whereas the percentage of both IL-2+CD161+ and IL-4+CD161+ subsets returned to the baseline. The number of CD161+IL10+ cells did not change significantly. These results suggest that NK cells could be another source for the early production of IFNgamma but provide no evidence that these cells are involved in early events associated with granuloma formation.  相似文献

We investigated embryo tissues targeted by replication competent adenovirus (Ad)-free recombinant Ad expressing a codon-optimized avian influenza (AI) H5 gene from A/turkey/WI/68 (AdH5) when injected into 18-day embryonated eggs. We also evaluated the effects of concurrent in ovo vaccination with the experimental AdH5 vaccine and commercially available Marek's disease virus (MDV) vaccine combinations Rispens/turkey herpesvirus (HVT) or HVT/SB-1. Computed tomography indicates that in ovo injection on day 18 of incubation places the solution in the amnion cavity, allantoic cavity, or both. Ad DNA was consistently detected in the chorioallantoic membranes as well as in the embryonic bursa of Fabricius, esophagus, and thymus 3 days postinoculation. H5 expression in these tissues also was detected by immunofluorescence assay. These results indicate possible swallowing of vaccine virus contained in the amnion. In contrast, vaccine localization in the allantoic fluid would have allowed bursal exposure through the cloaca. When the AdH5 vaccine was used in combination with MDV, chickens responding to the AdH5 vaccine had similar AI antibody levels compared with AdH5-only-vaccinated birds. However, combined vaccinated groups showed reduced vaccine coverage to AI, suggesting some level of interference. The combination of AdH5 with MDV Rispens/HVT affected the vaccine coverage to AI more severely. This result suggests that the replication rate of the more aggressive Rispens strain of serotype 1 may have interfered with the Ad-vectored vaccine. Increasing the Ad concentration produced similar AI antibody titers and AI vaccine coverage when applied alone or in combination with the HVT/SB-1 vaccine. Ad DNA was detected in hatched chickens 2 days after hatch but was undetectable on day 9 after hatch. MDV DNA was detected in feather follicles of all vaccinated birds at 12 days of age. Thus, Ad-vector vaccination does not interfere with the efficacy of MDV vaccination by using any of the commonly used vaccine strains.  相似文献

The establishment of equine pregnancy is a unique and long process during which a series of physical and possibly biochemical interactions are required between the conceptus and uterus. In this study, we investigated the expression pattern of inhibin/activin subunits in the uterus during early pregnancy. The uteri from four adult mares on cyclic day 13 or pregnancy day 25 were obtained. Immunohistochemical experiments suggested that inhibin/activin subunits were immunolocalized in the luminal and glandular epithelium on pregnancy day 25. In addition, the inhibin α and inhibin/activin βB subunits were not detected, and inhibin/activin βA subunit was detected, in the luminal and glandular epithelium on cyclic day 13. Real‐time polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting results for the inhibin/activin subunits suggested a significant increase in the expression of inhibin/activin subunit βB and a significant decrease in the expression of inhibin/activin subunit βA on pregnancy day 25 compared with those on cyclic day 13. Enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assays suggested a significant decrease in the concentration of activin A in endometrium extracts from cyclic day 13 to pregnancy day 25. These results suggest that inhibins or activins synthesized in the uterus, as endocrine factors and necessary nutriments, have different expression patterns and may play different, important roles during early embryonic development of the equine.  相似文献
