The aim of the current study was to examine the effects of clenbuterol injection into newly hatched chicks on both the abdominal fat pad tissue weight and the skeletal muscle weight during subsequent growth. Twenty‐seven 1‐day‐old chicks were divided into two groups, receiving either a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of clenbuterol (0.1 mg/kg body weight) or phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS). Body weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion ratio were not affected by clenbuterol injection during the 5‐week experimental period, while the abdominal fat pad tissue weight of the clenbuterol‐injected chicks was lower than that of the control chicks at 5 weeks post‐injection. Plasma non‐esterified fatty acid concentrations were significantly increased in the clenbuterol‐injected chicks, while plasma triacylglycerol concentrations did not differ. Additionally, the enzymatic activity of fatty acid synthase was lower in the liver of the clenbuterol‐injected chicks. Conversely, the skeletal muscle weights were not affected by clenbuterol injection. These results suggest that a single clenbuterol injection into 1‐day‐old chicks decreases the abdominal fat pad tissue weight, but may not affect skeletal muscle weights during growth. © 2015 Japanese Society of Animal Science  相似文献

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDD) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDF), persistent pollutants that accumulate in the food chain, pose a risk to humans through consumption of tainted livestock. Clenbuterol, a leanness-enhancing agent, was tested for usefulness in PCDD/F body store reduction through body fat reduction (the predominant site of accumulation). To mimic the situation of contaminated animals, rats were given feed with or without a mixture of PCDD/F (0.6 to 2.7 ng/congener per day) for 10 d, followed by 16 d of feed with or without dietary clenbuterol (2 mg/kg feed). Clenbuterol reduced body fat by 28% (P < 0.05), increased muscle mass by 25% (P < 0.02), and decreased liver mass by 7% (P < 0.02). Although the concentrations of most PCDD/F per gram of fat were slightly increased after clenbuterol treatment, the total amount of PCDD/F that remained in fat was reduced by approximately 30%. Muscle PCDD/F concentrations and total burden were decreased by clenbuterol. In contrast, clenbuterol tended to increase concentration, but not total burden of PCDD/F in livers. One congener known to be rapidly metabolized and excreted, 2,3,7,8-TCDF, was the exception to this increase, decreasing 40% with clenbuterol treatment. This was also the congener that showed the greatest reduction in both fat and muscle. Examination of the ratio of PCDD/F in liver and fat revealed that clenbuterol increased the liver's share of the body burden of PCDD/F, from 38 to 75%. In a remediation/disposal context, these findings would be beneficial if clenbuterol lowered the meat and carcass burden of PCDD/F to safe levels, requiring only livers to be disposed of as hazardous waste.  相似文献

1. The effects of the beta-adrenergic agonist, clenbuterol (1 mg/kg diet) on the growth and muscle composition in female broiler chickens (14 to 32 d of age) fed on diets containing various concentrations of protein (220, 240 or 260 g protein/kg) were examined. 2. Body weight gain over the 18 d period increased linearly with increasing protein intake. The rate of gain was significantly higher in clenbuterol-treated chickens than in control birds. 3. Dietary clenbuterol increased thigh muscle weight and protein concentration of breast and thigh muscle, regardless of dietary protein content. Protein/DNA ratio in thigh muscle was enhanced by clenbuterol feeding, and the magnitude of difference of the ratio was higher in chickens fed on the 240 and 260 g CP/kg diets than in those fed the 220 g CP/kg diet. 4. It was concluded that clenbuterol-treated chickens require increased dietary protein to maintain maximal growth, and that increased protein consumption is an important factor in improving growth in clenbuterolfed broilers.  相似文献

The acute metabolic effects of clenbuterol were studied in calves. Clenbuterol was given intravenously at a dose of 1 µg/kg body weight. Glucagon was used to increase insulin secretion. Pretreatment with clenbuterol did not change the glucagon-induced hyperglycaemia, but the serum levels of insulin were significantly higher. Clenbuterol showed a significant lipolytic effect. The post prandial increases in glucose and insulin were significantly higher in clenbuterol treated calves. The findings are in accordance with results from earlier studies where clenbuterol was given orally in much higher doses.  相似文献

1. Beta‐adrenergic agonist (Clenbuterol, 0.33 mg/kg) and corticosterone (10 mg/kg) were incorporated into a diet based on maize and soyabean meal. Their effects on performance, carcase composition, hepatic microsomal mixed function oxidase and antibody production were investigated in female broilers.

2. Dietary corticosterone reduced the titre to sheep red blood cells, while it was unchanged by clenbuterol.

3. Clenbuterol exerted a promoting effect on gain‐to‐food ratio, carcase protein and hepatic microsomal cytochrome P‐450 content.

4. Addition of clenbuterol to the corticosterone‐containing diet prevented the increase in abdominal fat weight and uric acid excretion induced by corticosterone, but did not affect total fat mass.

5. The results showed that clenbuterol reduced abdominal rather than carcase fat and prevented protein degradation in the body when chicks were treated with corticosterone. Clenbuterol also influenced the content of cytochrome P‐450, but not the humoral immunity.  相似文献

Beta-adrenergic agonists increase growth rate, but their efficacy is reduced over time as the number of beta2-adrenoceptors in muscle decreases. Dexamethasone increases beta2-adrenoceptor density in many tissues, but this effect has not been reported in skeletal muscle. In this study, male rats were treated daily for 10 d with either clenbuterol (4 mg/kg of feed), dexamethasone (.2 mg/kg BW, s.c.), or clenbuterol plus dexamethasone. Untreated rats served as controls. Dexamethasone caused a marked suppression of growth rate, which resulted in decreased (P < .001) body weight (-29%), carcass weight (-30%), hind-limb muscles (-22%), omental fat (-22%), and heart weight (-10%). Feed intake was reduced (-26%), but feed conversion efficiency was also impaired (P < .001). Clenbuterol caused a small increase in growth rate (+6%; P < .05), with an increase in leg muscle (+7%; P < .01) and heart mass (+8%; P < .05). Feed efficiency was improved (P < .001) by clenbuterol. Rats given the combined treatment still showed a reduction in growth rate (-81%). Clenbuterol caused only a mild attenuation of the effects of dexamethasone on feed intake, BW, and carcass weight, but reduced the catabolic effect of dexamethasone on hind-limb muscle to only -8%. Clenbuterol caused a slight increase in the affinity beta2-adrenoceptors in lung for binding to the radioligand (-)[125I]iodocyanopindolol. Relative to control values, the density of beta2-adrenoceptors in lung was +31% with dexamethasone treatment, -45% with clenbuterol, and -23% with the combined treatment. Clenbuterol also decreased beta2-adrenoceptors in skeletal muscle (-35%), but so did dexamethasone (-13%), so the effects of the beta-adrenergic agonist were not attenuated through use of the combined treatment (-40%). The results show that the inductive effect of glucocorticoids on beta2-adrenoceptors is tissue-specific and that glucocorticoid treatment is not a useful adjunct to beta-adrenergic agonist treatment in animal production.  相似文献

Neonatal pigs were treated with lipolytic agents to determine whether this would cause a long-term decrease in their ability to deposit fat, with a consequent increase in muscle growth and feed efficiency. Groups of 25 female piglets were given clenbuterol (100 microg/kg BW), porcine somatotropin (pST; 100 microg/kg BW), pST plus clenbuterol, or saline injections from 3 d to 40 d of age. Five piglets from each group were then slaughtered to determine body composition. Clenbuterol and pST both increased ADG up to weaning when given separately (24%, P < 0.05; 20%, P < 0.1 respectively) but did not reduce fat deposition. In contrast, pigs given clenbuterol plus pST showed no increase in ADG and a 41% reduction in carcass fat (P < 0.05). Clenbuterol caused a marked decrease in beta2-adrenoceptor density in porcine adipose tissue (P < 0.001) and skeletal muscle (P < 0.01). This effect was attenuated by concurrent pST treatment, which helps to explain the synergistic effect of these drugs on fat deposition. Once the drugs were withdrawn at 40 d, the anabolic effect of pST gradually disappeared, so that the live weight of pST-treated and control pigs was identical at 168 d. Clenbuterol withdrawal caused the rapid loss of extra weight gained, plus an additional 4 to 5 kg live weight that was never recovered. During the 4-wk finishing period there was an increase in feed intake in pigs that had previously undergone treatment with pST (23%, P < 0.1), with no increase in ADG, and so feed efficiency was impaired (P < 0.05). Pigs that were treated with pST plus clenbuterol showed no marked increase in feed intake during this period. Carcasses from clenbuterol-treated pigs tended to be leaner at 168 d, but there was no long-term effect of pST or the combined treatment on carcass composition. Overall, the treatment of neonatal pigs with repartitioning agents was counter-productive, due to the withdrawal effects of the beta-adrenefgic agonist and the delayed long-term effect of pST on feed intake.  相似文献

To evaluate the effects of clenbuterol on cardio-respiratory parameters and blood lactate relation to exercise tolerance, experimental horses performed standardized exercise tests on a high-speed treadmill before and after administration of the drug. Clenbuterol was administered in feed to six healthy Standardbreds at a dose rate of 0.8 micrograms/kg b.wt twice daily for 5.5 days. Each horse was tested twice, without and with a respiratory mask, during two consecutive days. One week elapsed between the baseline tests without drug and the tests with clenbuterol treatment (each horse served as its own control). The results show an unchanged heart rate response to exercise 2 h after the last clenbuterol administration. The blood lactate response and the arterial oxygen tension during exercise did not differ before and after drug treatment. The oxygen uptake as well as pulmonary ventilation relative to the work load performed was essentially unaffected. The arterial pH during exercise was significantly increased (P less than 0.05) following clenbuterol treatment. Plasma levels of clenbuterol were maximal 2 h post-administration with values between 0.45 and 0.75 ng/ml. The plasma half-life of elimination was 10.4 h (+/- 2.25 SD). In conclusion, clenbuterol did not cause any major effects on the cardio-respiratory and blood lactate parameters studied in healthy horses performing submaximal exercise tolerance tests.  相似文献

A pharmacokinetic study is described in which Friesian calves (n = 30) were treated orally with clenbuterol at 10 times the therapeutic dose. The study was designed to establish the distribution and elimination of clenbuterol from edible tissues, the major compartments of the eye and body fluids. Animals (n= 24) were dosed (10 μg/kg body weight) twice daily with clenbuterol for 21 days and slaughtered in groups of five (one untreated control animal per group) at 6 h and 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16 days after cessation of treatment At slaughter, samples of diaphragm muscle, liver, kidney, bile, urine and both eyes were obtained. One of the eyes was separated into constituent tissues: aqueous humour, vitreous humour, comea, lens, retina (without pigmented epithelium), choroid (with pigmented retinal epithelium; choroid/PRE) and sclera. All samples were stored at -20°C. Clenbuterol concentrations were higher in liver than kidney, bile and urine from day 2 of withdrawal onwards. Concentrations in choroid/PRE were at least 10 times higher than in liver at all periods following cessation of treatment and 52 times higher 16 days after treatment The concentrations of clenbuterol in the constituent tissues of the eye were in the order choroid/PRE > comea > sclera > retina > aqueous humour/vitreous humour ≥ lens. Concentrations of clenbuterol in choroid/PRE taken from eyes frozen whole were generally lower than those in choroid/PRE separated before storage. Choroid/PRE stored by either method contained clenbuterol at more than 100 ng/g 16 days following cessation of treatment These data suggest that analysis of choroid taken at the abattoir would provide reliable surveillance information on the use or abuse of clenbuterol within the slaughter population. It is proposed that liver samples taken concurrently could be used in the event of a positive result from choroid/PRE analysis to indicate whether the maximum residue limit for edible tissues has been exceeded.  相似文献

盐酸克伦特罗在羊主要脏器中残留量消除规律的研究   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
本试验对盐酸克伦特罗在休药期肉羊眼睛、心脏、肾脏、肺脏、脾脏等组织中的残留规律进行了研究。选择24头体重为(30±5)kg健康肉羊进行试验,在饲料中添加50 μg/kg盐酸克伦特罗,连续饲喂35 d后休药,通过液相色谱—质谱联用/质谱检测休药期肉羊组织中克伦特罗含量,研究其残留量消除规律。试验结果表明,肉羊眼睛中有高浓度的盐酸克伦特罗残留且其在肝脏中消除较慢;停药第14天眼睛中盐酸克伦特罗的浓度仍为42.42~63.48 μg/kg,脾脏中盐酸克伦特罗消除速度是最快的;停药3 d时,检测不到盐酸克伦特罗的残留量(低于检出限0.07 μg/kg),故眼睛可用作检测盐酸克伦特罗在肉羊生产上非法使用的靶标。  相似文献

Clenbuterol (0.8 microgram/kg intravenously) was administered to 10 anesthetized horses with an abnormally low PaO2 (less than 90 mm Hg) despite controlled ventilation with an oxygen-rich gas mixture. Results were compared with those from 10 controls to which no clenbuterol was given and in which conventional methods to increase PaO2 were ongoing. Horses treated with clenbuterol had higher PaO2 values for at least 90 minutes. Clenbuterol was associated with increased heart rate and profuse sweating. Clenbuterol can be administered intravenously to increase the PaO2 of mechanically ventilated horses that have low arterial oxygen tension while under inhalation anesthesia. Further studies are warranted to define more precisely the circumstances under which clenbuterol may be used safely.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics and residues of clenbuterol in veal calves.   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
Seven female Brown Swiss calves were used to study the pharmacokinetics of clenbuterol after an effective anabolic dosage of 5 micrograms/kg of BW was given twice daily for 3 wk. Analyses of clenbuterol concentrations in different tissues was done by enzyme immunoassay (EIA). Tissue samples were taken from three calves on the last day of administration and from two more after 3.5 or 14 d of clenbuterol withdrawal. The rate of clenbuterol elimination was dependent on time and tissue. Clenbuterol concentrations in the lung dropped from a mean of 76 ng/g to a level of less than .08 ng/g after 14 d, whereas in the liver the clenbuterol concentrations decreased from 46 ng/g to .6 ng/g within 14 d of withdrawal. Highest levels were always found in the eye: 118 ng/g, 57.5 ng/g, and 15.1 ng/g after 0, 3.5, and 14 d of withdrawal, respectively. These data reveal that different compartments contribute to the elimination of clenbuterol; therefore, concentrations in urine do not follow first order kinetics. An initial rapid decline in the concentration of clenbuterol in urine with a half-life of 10 h is followed by a slower elimination with a half-life of about 2.5 d. Treatments using the anabolic dose of 5 micrograms/kg of BW require longer withdrawal times than the therapeutic dose (.8 micrograms/kg BW).  相似文献

The aim of the study was to examine the effect of the beta2-adrenoceptor, clenbuterol, on the duodenal epithelium of food-restricted rats. Clenbuterol was administered as a dietary admixture (4 mg/kg diet) to three groups of male Wistar rats (n = 8) housed individually in metabolic cages and fed ad libitum for 15 days at 110% and 160% of the estimated requirement for energy maintenance. Untreated groups at each energy intake level were also included. Samples of the duodenum were examined by light microscopy. Compared with control animals, clenbuterol treatment significantly increased body mass in all diet groups, although it induced no changes in mean food intake. Gastrointestinal (GIT) dry mass was increased by clenbuterol only in the most severely-restricted-diet group. In this group, clenbuterol treatment increased GIT tissue nitrogen (23%), more than it did in the ad libitum group (13%). In all treated groups, clenbuterol induced significant hypertrophy of duodenal enterocytes and circular muscle layers, and the diameter of lymphatic vessels increased. In the clenbuterol-treated, restricted-diet groups the height of the brush borders of enterocytes increased. It is concluded that clenbuterol has a protective effect on the intestinal structure in rats on restricted as well as ad libitum diets.  相似文献

The effects of a 3-day intramuscular (i.m.) administration of clenbuterol (25 μ.g/ Kg), propranolol (12 mg/kg), clenbuterol (25 μg/kg) plus propranolol (12 mg/ Kg) and estradiol (0.5 μg) upon the female reproductive system were investigated in immature Sprague-Dawley rats. Clenbuterol and estradiol treatments induced a significant increase in uterus weight and in relative uterus weight, whereas in the groups treated with propranolol and clenbuterol plus propranolol no differences were detected versus controls. The uterine estrogen receptor levels were significantly increased by clenbuterol administration. In the rats dosed with propranolol and clenbuterol plus propranolol, no modifications occurred in estrogen receptor concentrations when compared with control values. Uterine progesterone receptors were never significantly affected by any of the considered treatments. Data obtained indicate that clenbuterol treatment induces an increase in uterus weight and in estrogen receptor levels and that these effects are regulated by acute beta-adrenergic stimulation, as the contemporaneous administration of high doses of a beta-blocker inhibit such effects.  相似文献

The beta-agonist clenbuterol in mane and tail hair of horses   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
REASONS FOR PERFORMING STUDY: The beta2-agonist clenbuterol is commonly administered for therapeutic purposes in the horse, but its use an an anabolic agent is illegal. Clenbuterol can be detected in blood and urine for a relatively short period after administration and detection in hair could enhance the analytical range and be used to determine the history of clenbuterol application. HYPOTHESIS: That detection in mane or tail hair is possible over an extended period. METHODS: Four horses received 0.8 microg clenbuterol hydrochloride/kg bwt b.i.d. for 10 days. Four other horses were used as untreated controls. Blood, urine, mane and tail hair samples were taken on Day 0 (before) and 5, 10, 30, 35, 40, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 360 days after start of treatment. Gas chromotography/high resolution mass spectrometry (GC/HRMS) was developed for clenbuterol analysis: limit of detection was 0.2 pg/mg; intra-assay repeatability limit r = 0.06 (confidence level 95%); interassay repeatability limit r = 0.03 (confidence level 95%). Prior to treatment, clenbuterol was absent from all samples analysed. RESULTS: Clenbuterol was detectable as early as Day 5 in tail and mane hair of Segment 1 (0-20 mm from the roots) and was maximal on Day 90. However, as time progressed, shift into lower 20 mm segments was observed. On Day 360, the maximum concentration (up to 21 pg/mg) was located in Segment 13, i.e. 26-28 cm from roots of hair. Clenbuterol was not detectable in blood or urine after Day 30. Mane and tail hair results were very similar. CONCLUSIONS: The study showed that the beta-agonist clenbuterol can be found in mane and tail hair of horses after extended periods. POTENTIAL RELEVANCE: It will be possible to detect clenbuterol in breeding and show horses where anabolic drugs have been used illegally to improve conformation. This method may also be helpful to monitor therapeutic clenbuterol treatment.  相似文献

Fusarium moniliforme culture material containing fumonisin B1 at 300 mg/kg was incorporated into a broiler starter ration and fed ad libitum to 1-day-old broiler chicks for 2 weeks in two experiments. Clinical features of the disease produced included diarrhea, a 19% reduction in body weight, a 30% increase in relative liver weight, and a worsening of feed conversion by 20 points at 2 weeks of age. Histologically, chicks fed fumonisin had multifocal hepatic necrosis, biliary hyperplasia, muscle necrosis, intestinal goblet-cell hyperplasia, and rickets. Simultaneous feeding of 0.5% aluminosilicate had no effect on the clinical disease or lesions. The clinical disease and lesions induced mimicked those of a viral enteritis.  相似文献

Clenbuterol, a beta2 agonist/antagonist, is the only bronchodilator approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for use in horses. The Association of Racing Commissioners International classifies clenbuterol as a class 3 agent, and, as such, its identification in post-race samples may lead to sanctions. Anecdotal reports suggest that clenbuterol may have been administered by intratracheal (IT) injection to obtain beneficial effects and avoid post-race detection. The objectives of this study were (1) to measure the pharmacological efficacy of IT dose of clenbuterol and (2) to determine the analytical findings in urine in the presence and absence of furosemide. When administered intratracheally (90 microg/horse) to horses suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), clenbuterol had effects that were not significantly different from those of saline. In parallel experiments using a behavior chamber, no significant effects of IT clenbuterol on heart rate or spontaneous locomotor activity were observed. Clenbuterol concentrations in the urine were also measured after IT dose in the presence and absence of furosemide. Four horses were administered i.v. furosemide (5 mg/kg), and four horses were administered saline (5 mL). Two hours later, all horses were administrated clenbuterol (IT, 90 microg), and the furosemide-treated horses received a second dose of furosemide (2.5 mg/kg, i.v.). Three hours after clenbuterol dose (1 h after hypothetical 'post-time'), the mean specific gravity of urine samples from furosemide-treated horses was 1.024, well above the 1.010 concentration at which furosemide is considered to interfere with drug detection. There was no interference by furosemide with 'enhanced' ELISA screening of clenbuterol equivalents in extracted and concentrated samples. Similarly, furosemide had no effect on mass spectral identification or quantification of clenbuterol in these samples. These results suggest that the IT dose of clenbuterol (90 microg) is, in pharmacological terms, indistinguishable from the dose of saline, and that, using extracted samples, clenbuterol dose is readily detectable at 3 h after dosing. Furthermore, concomitant dose of furosemide does not interfere with detection or confirmation of clenbuterol.  相似文献
