To clarify the role of serotonin (5‐HT) in the regulatory mechanism of L‐tryptophan (TRP)‐induced growth hormone (GH) secretion in cattle, changes in 5‐HT concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the third ventricle (3V) and GH in plasma before and after the peripheral infusion of TRP were determined simultaneously. The direct effect of TRP on GH release from the dispersed anterior pituitary cells was also assessed. A chronic cannula was placed in 3V by stereotaxic surgery, then CSF and blood were withdrawn under physiological conditions. TRP (38.5 mg/kg BW) was infused through an intravenous catheter from 12.00 to 14.00 hours and CSF and blood sampling were performed from 11.00 to 18.00 hours at 1‐h intervals. The concentration of 5‐HT in CSF was determined by high‐performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection. GH, melatonin (MEL), and cortisol (CORT) concentrations were measured by radio‐immunoassay and enzyme‐immunoassay. Concentrations of 5‐HT were increased by TRP infusion. The TRP infusion significantly increased GH release. On the other hand, TRP did not stimulate GH release from the bovine pituitary cells. MEL and CORT concentrations were not altered by TRP infusion. These results suggest that TRP induced GH release via the activation of serotonergic neurons in cattle.  相似文献

To clarify endocrine responses to psychological stressors in cattle, the effects of isolation from familiar peers on plasma prolactin (PRL) and cortisol (CORT) concentrations, and the effect of 3,4‐dihydroxy‐L‐phenylalanine (L‐DOPA), a precursor of dopamine (DA), on stress‐induced PRL secretion were determined in Holstein steers. First, the potency of peripheral L‐DOPA administration on attenuation of central DA levels was confirmed. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) collected from a chronic cannula in the third ventricle and plasma were sampled 1 h before and 3 h after intravenous injection of L‐DOPA (100 mg/head). DA concentrations in CSF increased just after L‐DOPA injection with subsequent decrease in PRL secretion. Injection of L‐DOPA increased CORT secretion. Second, one experimental steer was isolated in its stall by removing its peers for 2 h with or without‐ pre‐injection of L‐DOPA. The concentration of PRL was elevated by isolation treatment, whereas the effect of isolation on CORT concentration could not be detected. The increase in PRL concentration after isolation was abolished by pre‐injection of L‐DOPA. These results suggest that PRL responds to isolation and that DA neurons in the central nervous system may regulate stress‐induced PRL secretion in steers.  相似文献

To provide new insights into the neural mechanisms of physiological and behavioral responses to stressors in sheep, acute changes in endocrine, autonomic and behavioral functions following 30 min infusions of ovine‐corticotropin‐releasing hormone (oCRH; 0, 0.5, 5 or 50 µg/0.5 mL of artificial cerebrospinal fluid/30 min) into the third ventricle of sheep (n = 7–8) were examined. Serial blood samples were collected through indwelling jugular catheters to determine plasma cortisol concentrations (CORT). Heart rate (HR) and rectal temperature (RT) were obtained via telemetry systems. The behaviors of the animal were monitored simultaneously. Intracerebroventricular infusions of CRH dose‐dependently induced an increase in CORT; there was a time–treatment interaction in CORT (P < 0.001). There was not a time–treatment interaction either in HR (P = 0.29) or in RT (P = 0.28). That RT showed a tendency to decrease with higher doses of CRH in sheep was in contradiction to previous reports in rats and pigs. As to changes in behavioral function, only the induction of bleating was marked. These results suggest that in physiological and behavioral responses of sheep to stressors, CRH regulates the increase in CORT and the induction of bleating. However, CRH might have little function in sympathetic nervous activation during physiological responses to stressors in sheep.  相似文献

Some evidence suggests that there might be a species difference in the effect of intracerebroventricularly administered (ICV) prolactin‐releasing peptide (PrRP) between rodents and sheep. We compared the levels of cortisol (CORT) and prolactin (PRL), rectal temperature (RT) and behavioral responses to ICV bovine PrRP (bPrRP) in steers. ICV bPrRP (0.2, 2 and 20 nmol/200 µL) tended to evoke a dose‐related increase in CORT concentrations and 0.2 nmol of bPrRP induced transient increase in PRL concentrations. A significant time–treatment interaction was observed for the percent change of CORT (P < 0.05) and PRL (P < 0.05) from pre‐injection value. The time–treatment interaction for changes in RT was not significant (P = 0.50). There tended to be a difference among the four treatments in terms of maximum change in RT from the pre‐injection value between 0 and 90 min (P < 0.1). Stress‐related behavioral signs were not observed in the present experiment. These findings indicate that ICV bPrRP increased CORT and PRL levels, suggesting that central PrRP might participate in controlling the hypothalamo‐pituitary‐adrenal axis and PRL release in cattle, unlike sheep. In contrast, central PrRP is unlikely to be involved in controlling the behavior of this species because ICV bPrRP did not induce marked changes in their behavior.  相似文献

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of tryptophan (TRP) supply on the thermoregulatory responses via brain serotonin (5‐HT) in cattle. In period 1, 12 Holstein steers were kept under a constant room temperature (22°C) and were administered the intravenous (i.v.) infusion of saline or TRP (38.5 mg/kg/2 h). Changes in rectal temperature (RT), 5‐HT concentration in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and other factors involved in thermoregulation were measured. In period 2, the steers received the same treatments as in period 1; however, the room temperature was elevated from 22°C to 33°C during i.v. infusion and maintained at 33°C for 3 h. 5‐HT concentration in CSF increased following TRP infusion in both periods, and RT significantly decreased following TRP infusion only in period 2. The effect of TRP on respiration rate and plasma prolactin and total triiodothyronine concentrations was not significant. These results suggest that increase in TRP supply can attenuate increase in RT in response to acute heat stress through the increase in brain 5‐HT, followed by presumable increase in evaporative heat loss from the skin surface in cattle. It is possible that the increase in peripheral blood TRP metabolites could also participate in the hypothermic effect of TRP.  相似文献

The present study was conducted to determine the difference in plasma prostaglandin F2α metabolite concentrations following oxytocin (OT) challenge between pregnant and non‐pregnant cows. Experiment 1: cows were subjected to the OT challenge test on days 12, 14 or 16 (day of estrus = day 0) with or without prior insemination and plasma 13,14‐dihydro‐15‐keto prostaglandin F2α (PGFM) concentrations were measured from ?30 to 180 min after OT injection. On day 16, the increment of plasma PGFM concentrations in response to OT injection was significantly smaller in pregnant than that in cyclic cows. On days 12 and 14, there was little OT‐induced PGFM secretion and no difference in PGFM increase between the pregnant and cyclic cows. Experiment 2: cows were inseminated on day 0 and subjected to the OT challenge test on day 16. Cows were classified into non‐pregnant/early embryonic death (NP/EED), late embryonic death (LED) and pregnant (PREG) groups. The increment of PGFM concentrations in response to OT injection was less in both PREG and LED groups than that in the NP/EED group. In conclusion, plasma PGFM secretion induced by OT is suggested as the base of pregnancy diagnosis prior to returning estrus in cows.  相似文献

The secretion rhythms of plasma cortisol (CORT) and prolactin (PRL), hormones related to stress responsiveness and biological rhythm and controlled by light and temperature, were investigated under varying external environments and different management techniques. Serial blood samples were collected from female cattle reared in free‐stall and freely fed (FF) conditions (n = 4) or in tie‐stall and restricted feeding (RF) conditions (hay and concentrate twice daily, n = 4). Plasma CORT and PRL concentrations, eating behavior, and environmental parameters were analyzed. Cyclic patterns for each parameter were examined using spectral analysis, and correlations between CORT, PRL and other parameters were investigated using cross‐spectral analysis. Under FF conditions, CORT secretion was not related to the lighting intensity and eating behavior. However, under RF conditions, the CORT secretion rhythm showed a distinct correlation with lighting intensity and eating behavior. Under FF conditions, the PRL secretion rhythm was similar in all seasons. However, under RF conditions, the PRL rhythm oscillated with high frequency in summer and low frequency in winter, indicating a seasonal change in rhythm. The present study demonstrates that hormone secretion rhythms change under different environments and management techniques.  相似文献

It has been reported in recent studies that restraint stress on pregnant mice during the preimplantation stage elevated corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH) and glucocorticoid levels in the serum and oviducts; furthermore, CRH and corticosterone (CORT) impacted preimplantation embryos indirectly by triggering the apoptosis of oviductal epithelial cells (OECs) through activation of the Fas system. However, it remains unclear whether TNF-α signaling is involved in CRH- and/or glucocorticoid-induced apoptosis of OECs. In the present study, it was shown that culture with either CRH or CORT induced significant apoptosis of OECs. The culture of OECs with CRH augmented both FasL expression and TNF-α expression. However, culture with CORT increased FasL, but decreased TNF-α, expression significantly. Although knocking down/knocking out FasL expression in OECs significantly ameliorated the proapoptotic effects of both CRH and CORT, knocking down/knocking out TNF-α expression relieved only the proapoptotic effect of CRH but not that of CORT. Taken together, our results demonstrated that CRH-induced OEC apoptosis involved both Fas signaling and TNF-α signaling. Conversely, CORT-induced OEC apoptosis involved only the Fas, but not the TNF-α, signaling pathway. The data obtained are crucial for our understanding of the mechanisms by which various categories of stress imposed on pregnant females impair embryo development, as well as for the development of measures to protect the embryo from the adverse effects of stress.  相似文献

Hypothalamic neurons that control the luteinizing hormone (LH) and growth hormone (GH) axes are localized in regions that also express neuropeptide Y (NPY). Increased hypothalamic expression of NPY due to diet restriction has been associated with suppressed secretion of LH and enhanced secretion of GH in numerous species. However, these physiological relationships have not been described in cattle. Thus, two studies were conducted to characterize these relationships using ovariectomized (Experiment 1) or ovariectomized estrogen-implanted (Experiment 2) cows. In Experiment 1, four well-nourished, ovariectomized cows received third cerebroventricular (TCV) injections of 50 and 500 micrograms of NPY in a split-plot design. Venous blood was collected at 10-min intervals from -4 hr (pre-injection control period) to +4 hr (postinjection treatment period) relative to TCV injection. NPY suppressed (P < or = 0.04) tonic secretion of LH irrespective of dose and tended to stimulate (P < or = 0.10) an increase in tonic secretion of GH. In Experiment 2, six ovariectomized cows that were well nourished and implanted with estradiol received TCV injections of 0, 50, or 500 micrograms of NPY in a replicated 3 x 3 Latin Square. Both doses of NPY suppressed (P < 0.06) mean concentration of LH relative to the 0-microgram dose. The 50-microgram dose of NPY tended (P < 0.10) to increase the amplitude of GH pulses. In conclusion, TCV injection of NPY suppressed pituitary secretion of LH and simultaneously tended to increase pituitary secretion of GH.  相似文献

A modification of the intravenous regional anaesthesia technique was used to assess the peripheral antinociceptive effect of remoxipride, clonidine and fentanyl. Drugs administered intravenously via peripheral catheters were restricted to the distal limb and nociceptive threshold test site by prior inflation of a tourniquet proximal to both the catheter and a threshold-testing device. Lignocaine (1 mg/kg) induced peripheral antinociception during tourniquet inflation. Clonidine (6 μg/kg) only induced significant elevations in thresholds after tourniquet deflation. A low dose of remoxipride (2 mg/kg), which had no systemic antinociceptive effect, produced antinociception after its restriction to the periphery. Peripheral administration of saline and tourniquet-induced restriction of blood flow to the distal limb did not alter threshold values. Peripheral administration of fentanyl was used to test a further modification of the injection protocol designed to reduce the incidence of leakage into the systemic circulation. Fentanyl administration (11.2 μg/kg) failed to elicit an increase in thresholds when it was restricted to the distal limb test site. The contribution of a peripheral mechanism to the antinociception induced by systemic administration of a higher remoxipride dose (7.5 mg/kg) was investigated using an inflated tourniquet to exclude remoxipride from the periphery. Exclusion of remoxipride from the periphery reduced its antinociceptive effect, i.e. threshold values were lower than if remoxipride was allowed free access to the limb prior to tourniquet inflation.
The technique described here was effective in demonstrating that the increase in noninflammatory nociceptive thresholds seen with clonidine and fentanyl is not peripherally mediated whilst that seen with remoxipride has a peripheral component.  相似文献

This study investigated the effects of an intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) on physiological and behavioural responses in goats. In Experiment 1, saline (control) or saline plus 25 microg of ovine CRH was injected into the third ventricle of castrated male goats. CRH increased plasma cortisol (Cor) levels markedly within 15 min, but had little effect on plasma glucose (Glu). Compared with saline injected goats, CRH decreased the total duration of lying behaviour but increased its frequency, and suppressed rumination and self-grooming. In Experiment 2, the effects of an intravenous (IV) injection of human adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) (1-24) (0.1mg) were examined and an IV injection of saline was used as control. ACTH increased plasma Cor levels markedly, but did not change any behaviour compared with controls. It was concluded that CRH mediated the response of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and behaviour following stress in goats, although the CRH-induced behavioural changes were independent of the HPA axis and seemed to be the result of direct action within the central nervous system.  相似文献

Subluteolytic doses of prostaglandin F2alpha analogue (oestrophan) given i.m. and oxytocin (OT) antagonist (CAP) and noradrenaline (NA) infused into the abdominal aorta were used to test the importance of luteal OT in pulsatile secretion of prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF) during luteolysis in heifers (n = 17). In experiment 1, heifers were pre-infused for 30 minutes with saline on either day 17 of the oestrous cycle (group 1; n = 4) or on day 18 of the oestrous cycle (group 2; n = 3), and with CAP (8 mg per animal) on day 17 of the oestrous cycle (group 3; n = 4). Next, heifers were injected with oestrophan (30 microg per animal). Injection of oestrophan in Group 3 increased OT concentrations (P < 0.001) to values similar to those observed during spontaneous luteolysis (50 to 70 pg ml(-1)). PGFM concentrations in this group also increased (P < 0.001), but were lower (P < 0.05) than the values in groups 1 and 2, CAP given prior to oestrophan decreased both PGFM elevation (P < 0.06) and its area under the curve (P < 0.01), compared to the saline pretreated heifers. In experiment 2 NA (4 mg) was infused twice for 30 minutes at five hour intervals to release OT on day 17 of the oestrous cycle (n = 6). However, during hormone analysis it appeared that three of six heifers had elevated PGFM concentrations (group 1) and three others did not (group 2). NA caused the correlated increase of progesterone and OT secretion (r = 0.68; P < 0.05) in both groups but it only influenced PGF secretion in group 1 only (P < 0.05). We postulate that OT can amplify and modulate the course of induced luteolysis as a regulator of the amplitude of pulsatile PGF secretion. PGF analogue stimulates secretion of endogenous PGF from the uterus in cattle and this may be an important component of the luteolytic response to exogenous PGF.  相似文献

Two neuropeptides, neuropeptide B (NPB) and prolactin-releasing peptide (PrRP), have been suggested to play important roles in control of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in rodents. The aim of the present study was to clarify the central actions of NPB or PrRP in sheep. Ovariectomized ewes were surgically implanted with a cannula directed to the lateral ventricle. They received intracerebroventricular (icv) administration of 400 mul of artificial cerebrospinal fluid, NPB (0.05, 0.5 or 5 nmol), PrRP (0.5, 5 or 50 nmol) or corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH, 0.5 or 5 nmol) through the cannula, and blood samples were taken 30 and 0 min prior to and 15, 30, 60 and 90 min after the injection. Cortisol concentrations in plasma were determined by enzyme immunoassay. Administration of 0.5 nmol NPB resulted in a significant increase in the cortisol concentration compared with the vehicle control, whereas the cortisol concentration after lower or higher doses of NPB did not differ from the control value. Thus, an icv injection of NPB produced a bell-shaped dose-response of cortisol concentration. Administration of PrRP had no significant effect on the cortisol concentrations at any dose examined. Icv injection of CRH dose-dependently increased plasma cortisol concentrations. These results demonstrate that central NPB stimulates cortisol secretion, suggesting that this neuropeptide plays some roles in control of the HPA axis in sheep. On the other hand, unlike its role in rodents, PrRP is unlikely to be involved in control of the HPA axis in this species.  相似文献

The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of synthetic ACTH (1-24, tetracosactid) and porcine CRH on the plasma levels of cortisol and PGF2alpha metabolite in cycling gilts (n = 3) and castrated boars (n = 3). The experiments were designed as crossover studies for each gender separately. Each animal received, during three consecutive days; 1) ACTH (Synacthen Depot) at a dose of 10 microg/kg body weight in 5 ml physiological saline, 2) porcine CRH at a dose 0.6 microg/kg body weight in 5 ml physiological saline or 3) physiological saline (5 ml). The test substances were administered via an indwelling jugular cannula in randomized order according to a Latin square. The administration of ACTH to cycling gilts resulted in concomitant elevations of cortisol and PGF2alpha metabolite with peak levels reached at 70.0 +/- 10.0 and 33.3 +/- 6.7 min, respectively. Similarly, the administration of ACTH to castrated boars resulted in concomitant elevation of cortisol and PGF2alpha metabolite with peak levels reached at 60.0 +/- 0.0 and 20.0 +/- 0.0 min, respectively. Cortisol peaked at 20 min after administration of CRH in both cycling gilts and castrated boars with maximum levels of 149.3 +/- 16.5 nmol/l and 138.3 +/- 10.1 nmol/l, respectively. It can be concluded that administration of synthetic ACTH (tetracosactid) to pigs caused a concomitant elevation of cortisol and PGF2alpha metabolite levels in both cycling gilts as well as castrated boars. The administration of CRH to pigs resulted in an elevation of cortisol levels in both cycling gilts and castrated boars. Conversely, PGF2alpha metabolite levels were not influenced by the administration of CRH either in cycling gilts or in castrated boars.  相似文献

The effects of melatonin (MEL) injection into the third ventricle (3V) on growth hormone (GH) secretion were investigated in conscious Holstein steers. A stainless steel cannula was stereotaxically implanted in the 3V based on the ventriculogram. In Exp. 1, three doses of MEL (100, 300 or 600 microg) were injected into the 3V through the cannula and the GH concentration after the injection was determined. In Exp. 2, intracerebroventricular (icv) and intravenous (iv) injections of MEL (100 microg) and GH-releasing hormone (GHRH; 0.25 microg/kg body weight), respectively, were performed simultaneously to examine the effect of MEL on GHRH-induced GH release. The icv injection of MEL significantly stimulated GH release at 100 microg. The increase in GH concentrations by 100 microg of MEL was persistent. Intravenous injection of GHRH dramatically increased GH release. The injection of MEL did not alter GHRH-induced GH release. These results suggest that MEL stimulates GH secretion possibly through the hypothalamus in cattle.  相似文献

Pituitary cells, collected from five healthy dogs, were cultured and treated with various doses of ovine corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), arginine vasopressin (AVP), oxytocin (OT), or angiotensin II (AII) to determine which of these hypothalamic peptides affected adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) secretion. Of the 4 peptides, only CRH significantly increased ACTH secretion from cultured canine anterior pituitary cells. The lowest dose of CRH tested, 0.01 nM, significantly stimulated ACTH release. Co-addition of AVP, OT, or AII with CRH did not increase ACTH secretion beyond that caused by addition of CRH alone. Similarly, neither co-addition of AVP with OT, AVP with AII, or OT with AII significantly stimulated ACTH secretion. These results support a role for CRH in the physiologic regulation of ACTH secretion from the canine anterior pituitary, but do not support regulatory roles for AVP, OT, or AII.  相似文献

In rodents, intracerebroventricular oxytocin administration attenuated hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) responses and anxiety behavior during stress. We examined the effects of intracerebroventricular injection of oxytocin on isolation-induced stress responses in cattle. In a methodological test, we determined the dosage of oxytocin applied in a main test which did not induce an increase in plasma cortisol concentration or stereotyped behaviors. In a main test, 5 steers aged from 199 to 250 days were assigned to the following three treatments randomly: T1, no isolation after injection of 200 microl of artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF); T2, isolation after aCSF injection; and T3, isolation after 0.5 microg of oxytocin in 200 microl aCSF injection. The isolation was conducted by leaving the experimental steer alone in its stall for one hour while its peers were taken outside. In T2, the isolation induced a rapid increase in plasma cortisol concentration. The maximum %-changes from the pre-isolation value were significantly attenuated by oxytocin injection (T2 vs. T3, p<0.05). The isolation also induced an increase in the frequency (number of occurrences/1 hr isolation) of vocalizations and body orientation changes, and a decrease in the percentage of time spent lying and ruminating. The effect of oxytocin on these behavioral responses to isolation was not apparent. These results indicate that intracerebroventricularly injected oxytocin at low dose attenuated the cortisol response to isolation in steers while the effect on behavior was very small in this experimental condition.  相似文献

促肾上腺皮质激素释放激素结合蛋白(CRH-BP)是37 ku的分泌糖蛋白,其结构与促肾上腺皮质激素释放激素(CRH)受体不同,但与CRH和尿皮素(UCN)具有很高的亲和力.CRH-BP具有重要的生物调控作用,对CRH诱导的脑垂体促肾上腺皮质激素(adrenocorticotropic hormone,ACTH)的释放具有抑制作用.应激和代谢因素能改变体内CRH-BP的表达与调控,CRH-BP在生产分娩、炎性疾病、阿尔海默症(Alzheiner′s disease)和其他机能障碍等过程中也具有广泛的作用,这说明CRH-BP在大脑和脑垂体中可能还有其他潜在功能,研究CRH-BP在中枢和外周的作用及机理,有利于阐明其在病因学方面的潜在地位,有助于治疗CRH失调引起的机能紊乱.  相似文献

Background: Omeprazole and famotidine both reduce severity of exercise‐induced gastritis, but administering famotidine is easier than administering omeprazole during racing competition. Hypothesis: Famotidine is more efficacious than no treatment in reducing severity of exercise‐induced gastritis; and high‐dose famotidine is more efficacious than omeprazole in reducing severity of exercise‐induced gastritis. Animals: Experiment 1: Randomized placebo‐controlled study, 36 sled dogs (3–8 years); Experiment 2: Randomized positive‐control study, 52 sled dogs (2–8 years). Methods: Experiment 1: Equal numbers of dogs randomly assigned to famotidine (20 mg q24h) or no treatment groups. Gastroscopy was performed 24 hours after the dogs ran 330 miles. Mucosal appearance was blindly scored by previously described scoring system. Experiment 2: Equal numbers of dogs randomly assigned to omeprazole (20 mg q24h) or high‐dose famotidine (40 mg q12h) groups. Gastroscopy was performed 48 hours before and 24 hours after the dogs ran 300 miles. Mucosal appearance was blindly scored by previously described scoring system. Results: Famotidine reduced the prevalence of clinically relevant, exercise‐induced gastric lesions compared with no treatment (7/16 versus 11/16, P= .031). Compared with high‐dose famotidine, omeprazole significantly decreased the severity (0.4 versus 1.2, P= .0002) and prevalence (2/23 versus 7/21, P= .049) of gastric lesions. Conclusions and Clinical Relevance: Although famotidine provides some benefit in the prevention of exercise‐induced gastric lesions, omeprazole is superior to famotidine in preventing gastritis in dogs running 300 miles. Routine administration of omeprazole is recommended to prevent stress‐associated gastric disease in exercising and racing Alaskan sled dogs.  相似文献
