Healthy adult male desert sheep were experimentally infected with Fasciola gigantica , to investigate the influence of experimental fasciolasis on the pharmacokinetics of antipyrine and sulphadimidine. Each animal received 500 metacercariae orally. The experimental infection was confirmed histologically, by detection of Fasciola eggs in faeces and by measuring the activities of the enzymes sorbitol dehydrogenase (SD), glutamate dehydrogenase (GD) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in plasma during the course of the disease. Changes in the pharmacokinetics of antipyrine and sulphadimidine were reported in the experimentally infected animals. Significant prolongation of antipyrine half life was observed 16 weeks after infection. The half-life of sulphadimidine was also significantly prolonged 5, 9 and 16 weeks after infection. Clearance of the sulphonamide was decreased significantly 5 and 9 weeks after infection and it regained its pre-infection value 16 weeks after infection.  相似文献

Quail were fed monensin to determine liver damage, as measured by changes in activities of serum enzymes and liver microsomal enzymes. Monensin fed at a therapeutic level of 110 ppm for 2 weeks produced an increase in cytochrome P-450 and cytochrome b5 and induction of the activities of benzphetamine N-demethylase, aminopyrine N-demethylase, and aniline hydroxylase, with no changes in the activities of serum sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST). On the other hand, quail fed 110 ppm, 220 ppm, and 330 ppm monensin in feed for 6 weeks showed a significant rise in SDH and AST activities at 330 ppm but not at 110 ppm and 220 ppm. The manifestations of liver toxicity observed at 330 ppm were accompanied by a significant decrease in all the aforementioned hepatic microsomal mixed-function oxidases. In contrast, quail fed monensin at 110 ppm and 220 ppm for 6 weeks produced no change in these parameters except for benzphetamine N-demethylase, aminopyrine N-demethylase, and aniline hydroxylase, which were significantly increased in birds fed 220 ppm of monensin.  相似文献

Maturational development of drug-metabolizing enzymes in sheep   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
A qualitative and quantitative assessment was made of the development of hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes (DME) in sheep as part of a study of the ability of the food-producing species to metabolize drugs. The following DME and components were measured in this study: cytochromes P-450 and b5 and NADPH and NADPH-dependent reductases associated with each of these cytochromes; cytochrome P-450-mediated reactions, including aniline and coumarin hydroxylases, aminopyrine N-demethylase, and 7-ethoxycoumarin 0-deethylase; a uridine diphosphoglucuronic acid glucuronyl transferase with 4-methylumbelliferone as substrate; and glutathione-S-transferase with dinitrochlorobenzene and dichloronitrobenzene as substrates. Amounts or activities of most of these components and enzymes increased up to and beyond the time of weaning. Amount of cytochrome b5 and uridine diphosphoglucuronic acid transferase activity were not affected by age, whereas NADPH cytochrome c (P-450) reductase activity actually decreased after weaning. In some instances (eg, coumarin hydroxylase, cytochrome P-450, and dinitrochlorobenzene-glutathione-S-transferase), differences from preweaning DME values were observed only after sheep were greater than or equal to 6 months old. All other DME activities were definitely increased, compared with the values in lambs before weaning (0 to 12 weeks old). Approximately a third of the sheep studied had some type of clinical disease that might have affected the DME activities. Diseases were classified as sore mouth, pneumonia, foot rot, parasitism, and systemic bacterial infections. Except in a few instances, these diseases had minimal effect on DME activities measured in vitro.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Innate resistance of Javanese thin-tailed sheep to Fasciola gigantica was investigated in animals infected with single doses of 150 or 500 metacercariae and killed 4, 8, 12 or 16 weeks after infection. Infected and non-infected sheep had similar values for packed cell volume, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration, serum glutamate dehydrogenase, serum gamma glutamyl transferase and serum aspartate transferase throughout the trial, except for one animal infected with 500 metacercariae from which the highest recovery of flukes (55) was made. This animal developed pathologically altered values from 12 weeks post infection, coincident with the period of greatest hepatic haemorrhage and destruction of hepatic tissue by migrating flukes and their entry into bile ducts. However, values were altered much less than those reported in other sheep given as few as 200 metacercaria of F. gigantica. Both susceptibility to infection with F. gigantica, as indicated by percentage take of metacercariae and the severity of pathological changes were low in this study in comparison with reports involving other breeds of sheep infected with this parasite. These findings support the conclusion that Javanese thin-tailed sheep have a high innate resistance to F. gigantica.  相似文献

Sheep given a primary infection of Fasciola hepatica were challenged 18 weeks later with Taenia hydatigena or F hepatica, or both parasites together, or were not challenged. At the same time, control sheep were infected with T hydatigena and/or F hepatica separately or concurrently. All sheep were killed seven weeks after challenge and the number of cysts and flukes counted. Challenge infection with T hydatigena did not affect the numbers of flukes recovered from either primary or challenge F hepatica infections. On the other hand, the numbers of cysticerci were reduced in sheep previously infected with F hepatica but not in those given T hydatigena and F hepatica concurrently.  相似文献

The value of cercarial antigen for diagnosis of experimental and natural sheep fasciolosis was studied by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and enzyme linked immunotransfer blot (EITB). In ELISA, the antibody levels of experimentally infected sheep with Fasciola gigantica appeared at 2 weeks post infection (PI), gradually increased till 7 weeks PI and nearly remained at the same level from 7 to 13 weeks PI (the end of experiment). Also, the sensitivity and specificity of cercarial antigen for diagnosis of naturally sheep fasciolosis were 100 and 90%, respectively.In EITB, in the sheep experimentally infected with F. gigantica, the band of 32.5kDa molecular weight polypeptide appeared at 2 weeks PI and continued till the end of experiment. Also, the cercarial antigen recognized 32.5kDa molecular weight band with all sera from naturally infected sheep with fasciolosis (n = 25). This band did not cross-react when tested with sera from infected sheep with Cysticercus tenuicollus (n = 20). This study suggests that, the 32.5kDa molecular weight polypeptide could be used as sensitive and specific epitope for the serodiagnosis of sheep fasciolosis.  相似文献

Groups of eight Welsh Mountain sheep were dosed with diamphenethide at the rate of 70 mg/kg bodyweight at either one, four, six or eight weeks after artificial infection with approximately 300 Fasciola hepatica metacercariae. Comparisons were made with similarly infected but undosed sheep and with sheep which were neither infected nor dosed. The good clearance of flukes up to six weeks of age (above 97 per cent on pooled data) was reflected in the plasma concentrations of the accepted liver damage marker enzymes glutamate dehydrogenase and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase. Highly significant correlations were demonstrated between the numbers of flukes recovered, the plasma levels of these enzymes and haemoglobin and plasma albumin values. At 70 mg/kg, diamphenethide was shown to be able to control F hepatica populations of up to six weeks of age. The systematic use of diamphenethide at this dose level at intervals of up to six weeks during the period of metacercarial challenge should prevent ovine fascioliasis.  相似文献

The influence of Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica infection on serum glucose and beta-hydroxybutyrate (beta-HOB) in sheep was evaluated. This was done by setting up two groups of sheep. The first group (n=13) was split in two sub-groups, one experimentally infected with F. hepatica (n=9) and the other (n=4) as uninfected control. A second group consisting of a sub-group experimentally infected with F. gigantica (n=9) the other sub-group (n=6) left as uninfected control was also set up. The results of weight gain, parasitological and serum liver enzymes activity (glutamate dehydrogenase [GLDH] and gamma glutamyltransferase [gamma-GT]) used in monitoring the infection showed that all infected animals developed fasciolosis. It was observed that a reduction in serum glucose levels was significantly lower (p<0.05) in F. hepatica infected sheep than in uninfected control sheep starting from 5 weeks post-infection (wpi) to the end of the experiment. Similar reduction was recorded in F. gigantica infected sheep between 8 and 19 wpi. In contrast, serum beta-HOB levels were elevated in F. hepatica infected sheep between 6 and 16 wpi and in F. gigantica infected sheep between 7 and 15 wpi. It would appear from these serum glucose and beta-HOB levels that fasciolosis does lead to energy deficiency (low glucose) and ketosis (increased beta-HOB). The decrease in serum glucose and increase in serum beta-HOB levels in infected sheep may help in understanding the interaction between fasciolosis and nutritional status of infected ruminants especially in young growing animals.  相似文献

Microsomal and cytosolic enzymes that metabolize xenobiotics were measured in composite samples representing entire livers and in samples from three lobes, using livers of cattle, goats and sheep. Within individual species, concentrations of cytochrome P-450 and b5 and activities of NADPH cytochrome c reductase, aldrin epoxidase, aminopyrine N-demethylase, ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase, microsomal and cytosolic stilbene oxide (epoxide) hydrolase and glutathione S-transferase were not different (P greater than .05) among the various hepatic lobes. Among species, several activities differed (P less than .05), with cattle livers generally having lower values than sheep or goats.  相似文献

Maturational development of drug-metabolizing enzymes in dogs   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
A qualitative and quantitative assessment was made of the development of hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes (DME) in dogs as part of a study of the ability of animal test species to metabolize drugs. The following DME variables were measured in this study: amount of cytochromes P-450 and b5; activity of the NADPH and NADH-dependent reductases associated with each of these cytochromes; activity of cytochrome P-450-mediated enzymes, including aniline and coumarin hydroxylases, aminopyrine N-demethylase, and 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase; activity of a uridine diphosphoglucuronic acid glucuronyl transferase with 4-methylumbelliferone as substrate; and glutathione-S-transferase activities, with dinitrochlorobenzene and dichloronitrobenzene as substrates. Most enzyme components had achieved maximal amount or activity by the fifth to eighth week after birth; they tended to decrease after weaning, although the activity of dichloronitrobenzene-glutathione transferase in geriatric dogs (312 to 525 weeks old) was approximately twofold greater than that of 8-week-old pups. There were no gender-related differences in any of the enzyme amounts or activities determined. Individual variation was pronounced even in the homogeneous colony from which these dogs were obtained.  相似文献

Three groups of calves were infected daily with either 1500 Ostertagia ostertagi larvae, 20 Fasciola hepatica metacercariae, or 1500 O ostertagi plus 20 F hepatica metacercariae. Weekly measurements were taken of calf weight, faecal egg output, plasma concentrations of albumin, plasma activities of sorbitol dehydrogenase, gamma glutamyl transpeptidase and pepsinogen and standard haematological indices. Calves were killed either 10 or 21 weeks after daily infections began. F hepatica infection had little influence on the size and structure of the O ostertagi worm population or vice versa. Mean worm burdens found at 20 weeks in those animals infected with both F hepatica and O ostertagi were 293 flukes and 20,641 nematodes. While this level of infection is similar to that seen in the disease complex in the field, there was no evidence of clinical disease or any difference in weight gain between the groups in this experiment. Factors other than additive worm burdens are obviously important for the expression of disease under field conditions.  相似文献

The influence of two infectious bursal disease vaccines on the activities of hepatic microsomal enzymes aniline hydroxylase, ethylmorphine N-demethylase, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase, aryl sulphotransferase and p-nitrophenol UDP-glucuronyltransferase was investigated in chickens. The vaccines contained attenuated Winterfield 2512 and VMG-91 strains, respectively. The activities of enzymes were determined on postvaccination days 0, 2, 5 and 7. At the same time, post-mitochondrial supernatant, cytosolic and microsomal pellet protein concentrations were determined. As expected, the antibody titres against infectious bursal disease virus in the serum were increased in both tested groups in relation to each administered vaccine. Using RT-PCR, the presence of the VP2 gene fragment of virus in the liver of chicken was demonstrated 4 and 6 h after vaccination. The results of this study suggest that the two commercial vaccines modulate the activities of five enzymes tested, and that the two attenuated vaccines applied triggered induction and/or inhibition of phases I and II of biotransformation enzyme activities.  相似文献

Chickens were vaccinated against Marek's disease intramuscularly at one day of age. Enrofloxacin was given ad libitum in the drinking water at concentrations of 50, 100 and 250 mg/L from 8 days to 13 days of age when the animals were killed and the activities of cytochrome P-450 enzymes in the liver were measured. Vaccinated non-treated chickens served as a positive control. A negative control group was neither vaccinated nor treated. Vaccination decreased the activity of aniline hydroxylase and ethylmorphine N-demethylase in the positive control group. Subsequent application of enrofloxacin in the lowest concentration (50 mg/L) decreased, while that given at the highest level (250 mg/L) significantly increased the activity of the same microsomal enzymes. Relative liver weights and concentrations of proteins in 9000 x g supernatant were not affected by vaccination or treatment.  相似文献

Excretory-secretory products (ESP) products of ex vivo Fasciola gigantica adult worms were used for immunodiagnosis of sheep experimental infection with F. gigantica and natural infection with Fasciola spp. by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western blotting. Specific IgG antibody binding to native or denatured ESP was detected as early as 2 weeks after experimental sheep infection with 100 or 200 metacercariae. No specific IgG antibody binding was displayed by sera obtained from 192 sheep considered to be Fasciola- and other parasite-free by microscopic examination of bile and feces. Additionally, sera from 200 apparently Fasciola-free sheep, yet infected with other parasites, were all negative. The data, thus, indicated that ESP-based ELISA reached nearly 100% sensitivity and specificity in immunodiagnosis of sheep fasciolosis. As expected, the ESP molecules were immunogenic in sheep eliciting interleukin-12p40 mRNA response and considerable amounts of antibodies, which were able to bind to the surface of newly excysted juvenile worms as judged by membrane indirect immunofluorescence, and mediate their attrition via antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity. The ESP-induced cellular and humoral immune responses were associated with a modest reduction in worm count, yet with a highly significant (P<0.0001) decrease in size of recovered worms, thus suggesting that ESP immunization might be a safe and cost-effective strategy for reducing transmission of the infection.  相似文献

The development of drug-metabolizing enzymes in female sheep livers   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The purpose of this investigation was to determine age-related changes of some hepatic drug-metabolizing activities in Lacaune ewes in the foetal, neonatal (1 and 4 weeks), growing (7 months), pregnant (11 months) and adult (6 years) stages. Although microsomal cytochrome P-450 was not detected in 3-month-old foetuses, it increased regularly from 1-week- to 11-month-old animals. Among mixed-function oxidases, the development of aminopyrine and ethylmorphine N-demethylases, benzo(alpha)pyrene hydroxylase and ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase were correlated to that of total cytochrome P-450. Due to their presence in foetal liver or their more rapid evolution, cytochrome b5, NADPH cytochrome c reductase, aniline hydroxylase, benzphetamine N-demethylase and erythromycin N-demethylase did not parallel the ontogenesis of cytochrome P-450. Hepatic transferases showed different developmental patterns from mono-oxygenases, so UDP glucuronyltransferase was detected in the foetus, reached maximum activity in all young ages up to the pregnant stage and subsequently fell in adult ewes. Concerning glutathione S-transferase accepting 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene as substrate, similar values were obtained in the foetus and all young animals, whereas five- to tenfold higher values were obtained in both pregnant and adult female sheep. N-acetyltransferase using sulphamethazine did not significantly change from foetuses to adults but there were large differences in the capacity of hepatic acetylation between animals belonging to the same group.  相似文献

The effect of low grade chronic Fasciola hepatica infection on the concentration of plasma glutamate dehydrogenase (GD), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (gamma-GT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) was investigated in sheep dosed daily with three (AL3), eight (AL8) or 14 (AL14) metacercariae over 22 weeks or given a single dose of 200 metacercariae. Significant increases in plasma GD activity first occurred after nine, 12 and 23 weeks and in gamma-GT activity after 12, 24 and 32 weeks for groups AL14, AL8 and AL3 respectively. Changes in AST activity were not as clearly related to dose level. In sheep with single infection, both GD and gamma-GT were capable of detecting liver damage resulting from the migration of 10 or more flukes. Plasma GD and gamma-GT activities are more sensitive indicators of liver cell damage in chronic subclinical fascioliasis than AST activity and gamma-GT may be more suitable as a diagnostic aid on account of its greater stability.  相似文献

Summary

An enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with somatic (S) or excretory‐secretory antigens (ES) was compared with an indirect haemagglutination assay (IHA) for ability to detect antibodies against Fasciola hepatica in sheep. The specificity of both assays was determined by testing sera collected from sheep experimentally or naturally mono‐infected with Fasciola hepatica, Haemonchus contortus, Ostertagia circumcincta, Cooperia curticei, Taenia ovis, Eimeria spp., Trichostrongylus vitrinus, Trichostrongylus colubriformis or Nematodirus battus respectively. With S or ES antigens the specificity of the ELISA was 98% or 95% respectively, whereas the specificity of the IHA was 86%. Antibodies directed against Fasciola hepatica were detected by the ELISA with S or ES antigens from 2 weeks after infection until the end of the experiment, whereas the IHA detected antibodies from week 3. We conclude that the ELISA with S antigens compares favourably with the IHA and can be used for the serodiagnosis of ovine fasciolosis in the Netherlands.  相似文献

Eight desert sheep were each infected orally with 500 metacercariae of Fasciola gigantica and, after 4 weeks, four of the animals were given niclofolan orally at the recommended therapeutic dose rate of 7 mg/kg, the other four remaining as controls. One week later, the animals were slaughtered and the fasciocidal effect of the drug was evaluated on the basis of worm burden, haemogram, some plasma constituents, and gross and histopathological lesions of the liver, as indicators of efficacy. The treatment was found to be ineffective, the degree of infection remaining the same as in the untreated control group. The experiment was repeated using eight infected sheep: four were given the drug orally at a dose rate of 10.5 mg/kg, i.e., 1.5 times the recommended dose; and the same parameters were measured as described above. The drug failed to cure the infected sheep, and caused depression, anorexia and weakness. In a third experiment six sheep were infected as before and three were treated with niclofolan by deep i.m. injection at the recommended therapeutic dose of 2 mg/kg. A week later the animals were killed and examined as before. The drug was effective in treating the infection and produced no untoward effects except for transient signs of pain at the site of injection. It seems possible that the oral dose, unlike the i.m. dose, of niclofolan is not absorbed and/or metabolized sufficiently to prevent elimination of the infection.  相似文献
