The first case of Entamoeba of the 1-nucleate mature cyst group in birds is described. Trophozoites and cysts of Entamoeba have been found in ostriches (Struthio camelus) from farms located all over Spain. The cysts are large (13.47microm mean diameter); they possess one nucleus when mature, with a large endosome and peripheral chromatine arranged in small granules; chromatoid bodies, when present, are large and elongated. Trophozoites are large (19. 88microm mean diameter), with a clear differentiation between ecto- and endoplasm, this containing numerous vacuoles; the nucleus is large and diffuse. The characteristics of this amoeba resembles but do not completely fulfill those of E. suis and E. chattoni; also, these species are from mammals.  相似文献

This study evaluated overall efficacy, percentage of dogs free of live ticks, retention of ticks, and efficacy against retained ticks of fipronil (9.8% w/w) + (S)-methoprene (8.8% w/w) and imidacloprid (8.8% w/w) + permethrin (44% w/w) spot-on topical solutions against Dermacentor variabilis infesting dogs. Fipronil + (S)-methoprene provided significantly (P less than .05) greater tick control compared with the control dogs for the entire 30-day study period. Conversely, the combination product of imidacloprid + permethrin demonstrated activity significantly (P less than .05) different from control dogs only up to day 23. Significantly (P less than .05) more dogs treated with fipronil + (S)-methoprene were free of live ticks compared with controls on days 3, 9, and 16. There was never a significant difference (P greater than .05) between control and imidacloprid + permethrin-treated dogs in numbers of dogs free of live ticks. After the initial 10-minute tick exposure, lower numbers of ticks were retained on the imidacloprid + permethrin-treated dogs than on the fipronil + (S)-methoprene-treated dogs. However, when evaluating the effectiveness of the acaricides on "retained ticks," it appears that while some of the ticks were rapidly knocked down on the imidacloprid + permethrin-treated dogs, efficacy against ticks still retained at 10 minutes was never greater than 50%.  相似文献

In this study we investigated the effect of kefir on the levels of glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO) in the liver, stomach, spleen and colon of mice with colonic aberrant crypts formed by azoxymethane (AOM). Thirty 12 weeks old Swiss Albino mice averaging 31.5 g weight were used as experimental animals. The mice were separated into 3 groups. The first group was the control group, second group was the AOM and third group was the AOM+kefir group. We applied AOM to the second and third groups. Mice were fed ad libitum by laboratory rodent chow during the experiment period. Water was given to the first and second groups and third group received only kefir diluted with water (50%). AOM was injected subcutaneously to the second and third groups for 7 weeks (two times a week, 5 mg/kg). Six weeks after the final AOM treatment the animals were sacrificed and liver, stomach, spleen and colon samples were collected from all the groups. MDA level demonstrated an increase only in stomach for the third group (p < 0.001), while an elevation was observed for all of the four organs for the second group (spleen p < 0.001, liver p < 0.001, colon p < 0.01). GSH level showed an increase in the second group at stomach (p < 0.01) and colon (p < 0.001), while in the third group, a small increase was determined only at the colon (p < 0.05). NO level increased at all of the organs in the second group (spleen, liver, colon p < 0.001, stomach p < 0.05), but only at liver and colon in the third group 3 (p < 0.001). In conclusion these results showed that kefir plays an antioxidant role.  相似文献

Some kinetic data on the inactivation of equine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV1) and equine rhinovirus type 1 (ERhV1) by betapropiolactone (BPL) and ultraviolet (UV) irradiation are reported. 0.25% BPL at 37 degrees C for 1 h reduced the titre of EHV1 by greater than 10(3 . 4) and of ERhV1 by greater than 10(4 . 1) TCID50/ml. UV irradiation (334 microW/cm2) produced similar reductions in titre after 2 min. These data were used as a basis for inactivating EHV1 and ERhV1 by the combined action of BPL and UV irradiation. Viruses were exposed to 0.1% BPL for 1 h at 4 degrees C with constant stirring, followed by UV irradiation for 2 min, followed by incubation for 3 h at 37 degrees C. Inactivated EHV1 elicited secondary immune responses only in horses whereas ERhV1 produced primary immune responses in mice (including athymic nu/nu mice), rabbits and probably in horses.  相似文献

In the present study, arterial vascularization of the uropygial glands (Gl. uropygialis) of 10 adult geese (Anser anser) and 10 adult ducks (Anas platyrhynches) were studied. Takilon was injected into the median coccygeal arteries of six specimens from each species, and Latex (a natural rubber with ammonia) into those of four specimens. Takilon-injected specimens were corrosion casted, and arteries nourishing the gland were revealed via dissection. Vascularization of the uropygial glands of both the goose and the duck was observed to be the right (a. gl. uropygii dextra), left (a. gl. uropygi sinistra) and ventral (a. gl. uropygi ventralis) glandular uropygial arteries, arising from the median coccygeal (a. coccygea media) artery. Both the right and left glandular uropygial arteries were observed, divided into four branches as follows; muscular ramus (ramus muscularis), medial ramus (ramus medialis), ventral ramus (ramus ventralis) and lateral ramus (ramus lateralis). Of these, as the lateral, medial and ventral branches feed the gland, the muscular branch provides blood for the lateral coccygeal (m. coccygealis lateralis) and levator coccygeal (m. levator coccygealis) muscles, and the skin. Among the arteries mentioned above, anastomosis between the first and the second branches of the right ventral uropygial arteries in the five geese and five ducks was found.  相似文献

The antioxydants butylhydroxyanisol (BHA), butylhydroxytoluene (BHT) and ethoxyquin (EMQ) were tested for mutagenicity in the so-called “Ames test”. The test was performed with and without the addition of microsomal mixed function oxidase system from rat liver. The compounds were found not to be mutagenic in this test. At high concentration of BHA and EMQ toxic effects on the growth of the bacteria were observed.  相似文献

We have recently demonstrated that salsolinol (SAL), a dopamine (DA)-derived compound, is present in the posterior pituitary gland and is able to stimulate the release of prolactin (PRL) in ruminants. The aim of the present study was to clarify the effect that the interaction of SAL with thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) or DA has on the secretion of PRL in ruminants. A single intravenous (i.v.) injection of SAL (5mg/kg body weight (b.w.)), TRH (1microg/kg b.w.), and SAL plus TRH significantly stimulated the release of PRL in goats (P<0.05). The cumulative response curve (area under the curve: AUC) during 120min was 1.53 and 1.47 times greater after the injection of SAL plus TRH than either SAL or TRH alone, respectively (P<0.05). A single i.v. injection of sulpiride (a DA receptor antagonist, 0.1mg/kg b.w.), sulpiride plus SAL (5mg/kg b.w.), and sulpiride plus TRH (1microg/kg b.w.) significantly stimulated the release of PRL in goats (P<0.05). The AUC of PRL during 120min was 2.12 and 1.78 times greater after the injection of sulpiride plus TRH than either sulpiride alone or sulpiride plus SAL, respectively (P<0.05). In cultured bovine anterior pituitary (AP) cells, SAL (10(-6)M), TRH (10(-8)M), and SAL plus TRH significantly increased the release of PRL (P<0.05), but the additive effect of SAL and TRH detected in vivo was not observed in vitro. In contrast, DA (10(-6)M) inhibited the TRH-, as well as SAL-induced PRL release in vitro. All together, these results clearly show that SAL can stimulate the release of PRL in ruminants. Furthermore, they also demonstrate that the additive effect of SAL and TRH on the release of PRL detected in vivo may not be mediated at the level of the AP, but that DA can overcome their releasing activity both in vivo and in vitro, confirming the dominant role of DA in the inhibitory regulation of PRL secretion in ruminants.  相似文献

The New Zealand sea lion is a threatened species and two unusual events contributed to a decrease in recruitment in 2002. The first was a marked reduction (20%) in the number of pups born at the principal Auckland Island rookeries. Secondly, the mortality rate for pups was significantly elevated and was 33% by the end of February, almost three times the mean for that time of the year. Counts of females at rookeries indicated that the lowered fecundity was possibly due to a scarcity of food resources, supported by the fact that male pups (n=50) in 2002 grew poorly with the lightest recorded liveweights for the previous 8 years. Lowered fecundity may also have resulted from infection leading to foetal death, seen in an adult by-catch female, or abortion. Necropsies were conducted on 126/133 pups that died at Sandy Bay and for many the cause of death was multifactorial and included stillbirth, trauma, malnutrition, and severe anaemia caused by hookworm (Uncinaria spp) infection. An unusual disease presentation seen for the first time in 2002 was characterised by systemic bacterial infection that caused suppurative polyarthritis, severe necrotising fasciitis, myositis and osteomyelitis, suppurative peritonitis, pleuritis, or meningitis. For 41 pups, this syndrome was the primary cause of death and for an additional 16 it was a contributing factor along with hookworm infection or trauma. A consistent isolate has been Klebsiella pneumoniae with frequent isolations of Salmonella spp.  相似文献

The aim of the present study was to clarify the effects of hypothalamic dopamine (DA) on salsolinol (SAL)‐induced prolactin (PRL) release in goats. The PRL‐releasing response to an intravenous (i.v.) injection of SAL was examined after treatment with augmentation of central DA using carbidopa (carbi) and L‐dopa in male goats under 8‐h (8 h light, 16 h dark) or 16‐h (16 h light, 8 h dark) photoperiod conditions. The carbi and L‐dopa treatments reduced basal PRL concentrations in the 16‐h photoperiod group (P < 0.05), while a reduction was not observed in the 8‐h photoperiod group. The mean basal plasma PRL concentration in the control group for the 8‐h photoperiod was lower than that for the 16‐h photoperiod (P < 0.05). SAL significantly stimulated the release of PRL promptly after the injection in both the 8‐ and 16‐h photoperiod groups (P < 0.05). PRL‐releasing responses for the 16‐h photoperiod were greater than those for the 8‐h photoperiod (P < 0.05). The carbi and L‐dopa treatments blunted SAL‐induced PRL release in both the 8‐ and 16‐h photoperiods (P < 0.05). These results indicate that hypothalamic DA blunts the SAL‐induced release of PRL in male goats, regardless of the photoperiod, which suggests that both SAL and DA are involved in regulating the secretion of PRL in goats.  相似文献

We previously reported that the enforced expression of exogenous whey acidic protein (WAP) significantly inhibited the proliferation of mouse mammary epithelial cells (HC11 and EpH4/H6 cells). This paper presents the first evidence that WAP also depresses the proliferation of mammary tumor cells from mouse (MMT cells) and human (MCF-7 cells). We established WAP-clonal MMT and MCF-7 cell lines, and confirmed the secretion of WAP from the WAP-clonal cells into culture medium. The enforced expression of WAP significantly inhibited the proliferation of MMT and MCF-7 cells in in vitro culture. FACScan analyses revealed that G0/G1 phase cell-cycle progression was disordered and elongated in the WAP-clonal MMT and MCF-7 cells compared to that of the control cells. The expression of cyclin D1 was significantly decreased in the WAP-clonal MMT and MCF-7 cells, suggesting that progression from the G1 to the S phase was delayed in the WAP-clonal cells. The present results indicate that WAP plays a negative regulatory role in the cell-cycle progression of mammary tumor cells via a paracrine mechanism.  相似文献

The time periods and the behavioural pattern of mink euthanized with carbon dioxide (CO2), 100% and 70%, carbon monoxide (CO), 4%, and nitrogen (N2), 100%, are described. The time between the placement of the animal in a glass box and the first symptoms of incoordination (phase I), the period of loss of consciousness (phase II), and, finally, the coma phase until cessation of respiration (phase III) using three groups each of 10 pastel male mink each were recorded. Phase I times ranged from 14 s for CO2, 31 s for N2, and 49 s for CO. In phase II, the difference was even more pronounced, being 5 s for CO2, 15 s for CO, and 45 s for N2. In phase III, the time was 58 s for N2, 134 s and 151 s for CO2 and CO respectively. Hence, the critical period from the time when the animals were placed in the glass box till unconsciousness occurred (phase I and II) was 19 s for CO2, 64 s for CO, and 76 s for N2. The total course of euthanasia was 153 s for CO2, 215 s for CO, and 134 s for N2. The following minimum times will be required before it can be judged to be safe to remove the animals: CO2 and N2: 5 min, and for CO: 6.5 min. In a supplementary experiment, involving a mixture of 70% CO2 and 30% atmospheric air, it was not possible within the allotted time to kill adult male mink.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The signaling pathways leading to the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), formyl-methionylleucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in chicken heterophils were examined. To determine the mechanism of ERK's activation and its relation with the influx of calcium ions, heterophils were stimulated by PMA, fMLP and LPS. ERK was not activated by fMLP. LPS- and PMA-stimulated activation of ERK, based on Western blotting with antibodies against the phosphorylated form of ERK, was attenuated by the pretreatment of cells with the intracellular calcium chelator BAPTA/AM (1,2-bis (o-aminophenoxy) ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid) but not with the extracellular calcium chelator EGTA (glycol-bis(2-aminoethylether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid). Exposure of cells to the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor GF109203X inhibited the LPS- and PMA-stimulated phosphorylation of ERK in a concentration-dependent manner. The LPS-stimulated phosphorylation was inhibited by pretreatment with the phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor U73122 but not the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor LY294002. These results indicate that the LPS-induced phosphorylation of ERK in the chicken heterophils is mediated by PLC, PKC and intracellular calcium, and the PMA-stimulated phosphorylation is dependent on intracellular calcium ion and PKC.  相似文献

In 1969 25 musk ox calves were captured in Greenland and brought to Norway. The animals were kept on a farm at Bardu in the northern part of the country. In this herd a serious outbreak of contagious ecthyma occurred. This disease has quite recently been observed in musk ox also in Alaska (White, personal communication 1978).  相似文献
