以不同传染性支气管炎病毒（肾型IBV-河北分离株与呼吸型IBV-M41）分别感染蛋雏鸡,通过测定输卵管蛋白分泌部及子宫雌激素受体（Estrogen receptor,ER）和孕激素受体（Progesterone receptor,PR）的表达水平,来探讨IBV早期感染（10d）对抑制蛋鸡输卵管发育的作用机制。结果显示,IBV感染降低子宫和蛋白分泌部ER mR-NA、PR mRNA的表达水平,即致子宫ER mRNA和PR mRNA的表达低于检测水平;蛋白分泌部ER mRNA和PR mRNA的表达水平显著降低（P〈0.01）,且M41的作用幅度较肾型IBV更为显著（P〈0.01）。结果表明,IBV可通过降低ER和PR的表达水平,抑制输卵管对雌激素的应答能力而影响输卵管的发育。  相似文献

1. In the present study the distribution of large granular lymphocytes (LGLs) and influence of oestrogen on these cells was investigated in the oviduct of chickens by the observation of H and E stained sections. 2. The LGLs first appeared in the oviduct at 9 weeks and their frequency of occurrence increased with age and was highest in the infundibulum and vagina from 21 to 32 weeks of age. The frequency of occurrence of LGLs from magnum to uterus (glandular part) was low. These cells were located at the base, middle and apical parts of the lining epithelium as well as in the sperm-storage glandular epithelium. 3. When chickens of 21 weeks were treated with DES, LGLs abundantly infiltrated in the oviducal epithelium in comparison to the control. 4. These results suggested that the development of LGLs in the oviduct of chickens correlates with oestrogen secretion.  相似文献

本试验通过相对定量RT-PCR检测接种M41型鸡传染性支气管炎病毒(infectious bronchitis virus,IBV)对蛋鸡输卵管各部分(蛋白部、峡部、伞部和子宫)雌激素受体(ER)、孕激素受体(PR)及胰岛素生长因子-Ⅰ(IGF-Ⅰ)mRNA表达的影响,研究IBV早期感染(10 d)抑制蛋鸡输卵管发育的作用机制。结果显示,输卵管各部均有ER、PR和IGF-Ⅰ mRNA的表达,染毒组ER、PR mRNA的表达量较正常对照组显著减少(P＜0.05),而IGF-Ⅰ的表达量较正常对照组显著增加(P＜0.05)。可见IBV可通过降低ER和 PR mRNA的表达水平,抑制输卵管对雌激素的应答能力而影响输卵管的发育;而IGF-Ⅰ可能是以自分泌、旁分泌方式在输卵管局部起作用,是输卵管生长的调节因子。  相似文献

The objective of this work was to study cellular changes in the epithelium of the mare’s oviduct. Oviductal samples were taken from mares at different reproductive stages for optical microscopy and Hoechst 33258 staining. Glandular-like structures were observed in 100% of the oviducts. These structures were of the tubular type and were formed by ciliated and nonciliated epithelial cells arranged in a way similar to the epithelial surface. The amount of structures decreased progressively from the ampulla to the isthmus, but did not change through the different reproductive stages. Histological changes in the epithelium of the oviduct were observed associated with the reproductive stages. In the ampulla, the amount of ciliated cells decreased in the anovulatory phase compared with other reproductive stages. Cords of connective tissue lined by epithelium (trabeculae) and dividing completely the lumen of the oviduct were found in 50% of the oviducts. Epithelial cells projected toward the lumen as large vesicles of cytoplasm, sometimes containing a nucleus. The amount of cells presenting nuclear protrusion varied throughout the oviduct, with highest incidence in the ampulla, decreasing progressively toward the isthmus (P < .05). In addition, nuclear protrusions were higher in number during the anovulatory and luteal phases than in the other reproductive stages (P < .05). These nuclear protruding cells appeared to be extruding from the epithelium and showed no signs of apoptosis based on the histological and fluorescent stains used. The existence of these gland-like structures in the oviductal mucosa should be considered when studying the oviductal physiology in mares.  相似文献

Morphohistological features of the tubular organs of the Myocastor coypus (coypu) female reproductive tract were studied. Specimens came from breeding farms with yard breeding systems. The analysis of the organs was made by histological methods and by macro and microscopic measurement techniques. The animals showed oviducts with macro and microscopically differentiable regions. Their mucosa showed primary branched folds in the ampullar sector. In the rest of the oviduct tract these folds were only of the primary type. The double uterus showed regional variations in the lumen, endometrial glands along the whole surface and a wide fibromuscular cervix with pseudoglands. The endocervical mucosa made clear a complex system of folds covered by a mucus-secreting epithelium. In the long vagina of the coypu a folded, rugose and irregular mucosa was observed.  相似文献

Ovaries and oviducts of the adult African Clawed Toad (Xenopus laevis DAUDIN, 1802) were studied by light microscopy (LM) of paraplast embedded tissue sections and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of vascular corrosion casts (VCCs). Histomorphology revealed that ovarian vessels located in the thecal layers. Ovarian and interlobar arteries displayed a horse-shoe shaped longitudinally running bundle of vascular smooth muscle cells. Follicular blood vessels showed flattened profiles, which were confirmed by scanning electron microscopy in vascular corrosion casts. The flattened profiles obviously led to high intravasal pressures, which locally prevented filling of the follicular capillary bed. Oviduct arteries pierced the fibrous stroma surrounding the oviduct mucosa. In the pars convoluta, the mucosa consisted of a ciliated simple columnar epithelium and tubular oviduct glands that opened between ciliated epithelial cells into the oviduct lumen. Oviduct arteries branched at the basolateral surfaces of tubular glands. After a short tangential course, arterioles branched into capillaries which ran radially between oviduct glands towards the subepithelium. Anastomoses at different heights connected capillaries of neighbouring glands. Subepithelially, capillaries ran longitudinally and undulated. Postcapillary venules radiated centrifugally towards the stroma to finally drain into oviduct veins located in the stroma. Oviduct vascular densities clearly reflected non-ovulatory and ovulatory states.  相似文献

Quantitative morphological methods were used to analyse the histomorphometric changes and variations in the number and size of cells from diverse cellular populations in testes of newly hatched chicks treated with follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) during embryonic development. The tissue was fixed and embedded in Epon and sections were morphometrically measured under light microscopy, using point counting for volume densities and the Floderus equation to determine numerical density. The average volume of the individual cell was determined by dividing the volume density by the numerical density. Results indicate that FSH administration causes an increase in the number of Sertoli cells and spermatogonia, as well as enlargement of the individual Sertoli cells leading consequently to an increase in the diameter and volume density of the testicular seminiferous tubules. Results also reveal an increase in the volume density of the interstitial cords of the Leydig cells, this expansion is due to the enlargement of the individual Leydig cells and not to an increase in their number, which remains constant. We conclude that testes of chick embryos are able to respond to FSH treatment, as revealed by the changes in the number and size of the cells conforming the diverse cellular populations of the testis. FSH treatment during embryonic development induces histomorphometric changes in both the interstitial tissue and seminiferous tubules, accelerating their growth and differentiation.  相似文献

1. Our aim was to determine the presence and numbers of immunocompetent cells in the oviduct of laying and moulting hens. Immunocompetent cells were localised by immunocytochemistry throughout the entire length of the oviduct.

2. In laying birds, MHC class II + cells were observed in the subepithelial and middle part of the stroma of all oviducal segments and the mucosal epithelium of the infundibulum and vagina. CD3 + cells were also localised in subepithelial and middle part of stroma as well as in mucosal epithelium of each oviducal segment. Bu‐lb + and IgG + cells were also observed in the epithelium and subepithelial and middle part of the stroma of all oviducal segments, though stroma of the magnum, isthmus and uterus contained few Bu‐lb + cells. IgA + cells were observed only in the mucosal epithelium of the magnum in small numbers.

3. In moulting hens, there were few numbers of immunocompetent cells in the mucosal epithelium of each oviducal segment, although CD3 + cells were observed in the infundibulum and vagina. In the subepithelial stroma, the populations of MHC class II + cells in the infundibulum, magnum and uterus, CD3 + cells in the infundibulum and vagina, as well as IgG + cells in each oviducal segment except for isthmus were smaller than in laying hens. In contrast, the number of immunocompetent cells in the middle part of stroma of moulting hens were equal to or greater than in laying hens.

4. These results suggest that the oviducal immune function is active in the surface tissues of the mucosa in laying hens, whereas it is reduced in moulting hens.  相似文献

This study describes the distribution of vimentin, desmin, smooth muscle actin (SMA) and laminin in the oviduct of the laying domestic fowl. Vimentin immunostaining was localised in the luminal epithelium of the infundibulum, magnum, magnum–isthmus junction and isthmus. The luminal epithelium of the shell gland regions displayed weak vimentin immunostaining. Vimentin immunostaining was demonstrated in the glandular grooves of the tubular infundibular region. In contrast, gland cells in the magnum, isthmus and shell gland regions were vimentin immunonegative. Fibroblasts and vascular endothelial cells in the lamina propria of the oviductal regions studied exhibited vimentin immunostaining. Strong desmin and SMA immunostaining were present in the smooth muscle cells of the tunica muscularis and vascular tunica media. In this study, basement membranes underlying the luminal and glandular epithelia were immunopositive for laminin. In addition, basement membranes associated with smooth muscle cells exhibited laminin immunostaining. The results of the study indicate that the immunolocalisation of desmin, SMA and laminin in the oviduct of the domestic fowl is similar to that in the mammalian uterus. The immunolocalisation of vimentin in the domestic fowl varies depending on the oviductal region.  相似文献

The morphological characteristics of the oviduct of 12 sexually mature rheas (Rhea americana) were studied. Only the left oviduct is developed as a long tube with a length of 122 +/- 23.1 cm, and is subdivided into infundibulum (15.2 +/- 4.0 cm), magnum (63.3 +/- 9.4 cm), isthmus (5.6 +/- 3.1 cm), uterus (16.0 +/- 4.2 cm) and vagina (11.5 +/- 1.4 cm). The mucous membrane of the oviduct, as a whole, possesses luminal folds covered by ciliated columnar epithelium with secretory cells. The infundibulum part presents a cranial opening with thin and long fimbriae with few tubular glands in caudal tubular portion. In the magnum, the largest portion of the oviduct, the folds are thicker and are filled with tubular glands. The isthmus is short and presents less bulky folds and a few tubular glands. A bag-shaped uterus in the cranial area shows thin folds, and in the caudal region (shell gland) more ramified folds with few tubular glands. The vagina has long luminal folds and a thick muscular tunic; no glands with sperm-storage characteristics have been observed. In conclusion, the oviduct in sexually mature rhea has morphological similarities with the other species of birds already described; however it presents its own characteristics to produce a big egg.  相似文献

The Nurmi concept for diminishing salmonella infection of poultry by application of gastrointestinal microflora from adult birds into newly hatched chicks was tested in a field study in which 8 million broilers were involved. Half of the 284 flocks was treated in the hatchery by spray application of an undefined microflora propagated in SPF chicks. A significant reduction in salmonella-contaminated flocks, as well as in the number of infected broilers in these flocks was demonstrated. No undesirable side effects were detected. It was concluded that hygienic improvements in transportation and slaughtering of broilers are needed in order to maintain the reduced salmonella contamination rate.  相似文献

In the present study, we investigated the effects of adding luteinizing hormone (LH) to a medium containing follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) on the shift in expression of progesterone receptor (PR) isoforms (PR‐A and PR‐B) and the roles in function of cumulus cells of cumulus‐oocyte complexes (COC). The level of PR‐B mRNA in cumulus cells was up‐regulated by FSH during the first 16‐h cultivation but the level was significantly decreased at 20 h. The decrease of PR‐B mRNA was accelerated when COC were cultured with FSH and LH. Still, a high level of total PR mRNA was maintained in cumulus cells cultured with or without the addition of LH up to 20 h, suggesting that the expression of PR isoforms was shifted from PR‐B to PR‐A in cumulus cells. The reduction of PR‐B was also induced by addition of progesterone to FSH‐containing medium. The addition of LH or progesterone to FSH‐containing medium stimulated cumulus expansion of COC as compared with that of COC cultured with FSH. In the expanded COC, ADAMTS‐1 which is expressed in granulosa cells and cumulus cells in rodent follicles through LH‐induced progesterone‐ and PR‐dependent pathway, was more accumulated within the COC matrix. These results suggest that the addition of LH or progesterone to FSH‐containing medium is required for the differentiation of cumulus cells, such as cumulus expansion, mediated by the shift from PR‐B to PR‐A in them.  相似文献

A three-dimensional model has not been clearly established for the porcine oviductal mucosa. The oviducts of 12 cyclic sows were examined by Scanning Electron Microscopy to study the structure and nature of the mucosal arrangement of the oviduct. Epithelial cyclic changes were also studied. The oviductal infundibulum is an asymmetric funnel-shaped structure surrounding the ostium, in which a wide and a narrow side can be distinguished. The mucosa is more complex in the narrow side, showing numerous and tortuous longitudinal primary folds, while the mucosa becomes simpler in the wide side. Around the ostium abdominale wide secondary folds form cul-de-sacs, with their opening pointing in ovarian direction. Areas between folds throughout the lumen of the oviduct show a high-degree of complexity. Inter-fold spaces are occupied by a system of irregular grooves and pockets, with the presence of basal crypts in the caudal oviduct. Marked variations were observed in the oviductal epithelium depending on the oviductal segment, basal or apical areas of the folds, and phase of the oestrous cycle. Cyclical changes were observed in the infundibulum and ampulla, so that prominent and numerous ciliated cells lined apical areas of the folds in the follicular phase; whereas secretary cells were predominant throughout all areas of epithelial surface in the luteal phase. The oestrous cycle phase appeared do not affect the epithelial population cells of the caudal segments of the oviduct: ciliated and secretory cells uniformly lined apical and basal areas of the folds. The topography of the oviduct provides a complex system of regulation, which may influence not only the passage of cells, but also movement of fluid within the oviductal canal.  相似文献

The immunolocalization of the progesterone (PR) and oestrogen receptors (OR), in the magnum of the immature ostrich, was investigated during periods of ovarian activity and inactivity. In the immature ostrich, with an active ovary, numerous well-developed tubular glands were present in the lamina propria. Significantly, PR immunostaining was strong in the surface epithelium and tubular glands of these birds. In contrast, weak staining for the PR was observed in the surface epithelium of birds with inactive ovaries. Tubular gland formation, in these birds, was indicated by bud-like invaginations of the surface epithelium. Oestrogen receptor immunoreactivity was negligible in both birds with active and inactive ovaries. These findings suggest that steroid hormones, produced by the active ovary of the immature ostrich, influence the differentiation of the magnum. Furthermore, the action of these steroid hormones appears to be mediated through the PR.  相似文献

The use of nitrofuran antibiotics in food-producing animals is prohibited within the EU. Countries in the EU, as well those intending to export food to the EU, must ensure that their products are free from nitrofuran residues. As a result of recent global problems where chicken meat from a wide range of countries has been contaminated with nitrofuran metabolites, an investigation was performed to discover whether or not residues of the nitrofurans might be transferred from parent breeder chickens to their offspring broilers. Four groups of broiler breeders were each treated with one of the nitrofurans: furazolidone, nitrofurazone, nitrofurantoin or furaltadone. Residues of their side-chain metabolites, AOZ, SEM, AHD and AMOZ, were detected in the fertilised eggs at concentrations up to 1567 microg/kg. However, in the chicks that subsequently hatched from these eggs, residue concentrations of SEM, for example, were only found up to 26.6 and 32.5 microg/kg in liver and muscle, respectively, for 1-d-old chicks. Residue concentrations in tissues had fallen below the detection limit of the analytical method for 40-d-old broiler chicks, for all compounds except for semicarbazide (SEM, the nitrofurazone metabolite). Relatively high concentrations of nitrofurans are available to the newly hatched chick through the egg yolk. However, most of these residues are neither utilised nor deposited in the liver or muscle.  相似文献

Studies were made on the distribution of lymphoid tissues and immunoglobulin (Ig: IgA, IgG and IgM)-containing cells (cIg: cIgA, cIgG and cIgM) and the localization of immunoglobulins (Igs) in the oviducal walls of laying hens. Lymphocyte accumulations were occasionally observed, located mainly in the middle infundibulum and in the regions from the isthmus to the vagina. The number of cIgG significantly predominated over that of cIgA or cIgM in the mucosal connective tissue of the magnum and the isthmus. In contrast, in the regions other than the magnum and the isthmus, these three types of cIg were fewer in number. Igs were localized in some superficial epithelial cells (SECs) and glandular cells (GlCs) of the oviduct. Many IgG-containing SECs were found in the infundibulum, the isthmus, and the cranial and major uterus. IgA- or IgM-containing SECs were rare throughout the oviduct. Three types of Ig-containing GlCs were numerously found in the magnum, though lymphocyte accumulations were scarce there. In the isthmus, many IgG-containing GlCs were found, while IgA- or IgM-containing GlCs were rarely observed. Ig-containing GlCs in the magnum were considerably decreased in number after the egg passage. The results suggest that the maternal Igs are transferred to the egg mainly through GlCs in the magnum of the chicken oviduct, and that the oviducal lymphoid tissues have little relationship to the passive immunity.  相似文献

本试验研究了使用竞争排斥类益生菌制剂(CE)对初生雏鸡肠道菌群的影响。试验一随机将180只刚出壳雏鸡分为两组,试验组在0d每只口服接种益生菌106CFU,而对照组则口服无菌生理盐水。通过选择性培养和DGGE带型分析,研究不同日龄雏鸡盲肠内容物中菌群结构的变化。结果表明:试验和对照组的细菌总数差异不显著,试验组的大肠杆菌数显著低于对照组(P<0.05),试验组的乳酸杆菌数高于对照组;肠球菌数低于对照组,但二者差异不显著。PCR-DGGE结果表明试验组的电泳条带明显多于对照组,而且两组肠道菌群按不同处理明显地聚类成两大分支,说明初雏接种益生菌可以影响后期的盲肠菌群结构。试验二的分组和0d处理同试验一,两组随后在1d均口服接种鼠伤寒沙门氏菌。通过检测沙门氏菌和耐药性大肠杆菌定植数量来比较益生菌对雏鸡的保护率。结果表明:在12d,对照组盲肠内沙门氏菌阳性率为46.15%,而试验组则未检出。同时,与对照组相比,试验组盲肠内耐30ppm卡那霉素和5ppm氨苄青霉素的大肠杆菌数量下降显著。以上结果显示,竞争排斥类益生菌制剂不仅可在雏鸡肠道内成功定植,而且可以显著降低肠道沙门氏菌的数量。  相似文献

This study aimed to investigate the potential toxic effects of pure glyphosate or Roundup® on hatchability, serum biochemistry and histopathological observation of the liver and kidney of newly hatched chicks. On day six, a total of 225 fertile eggs were obtained from Huafeng breeder hens. The eggs were randomly divided into three treatments: (a) the control group injected with deionized water, (b) the glyphosate group injected 10 mg pure glyphosate/Kg egg mass and (c) the Roundup group injected 10 mg the active ingredient glyphosate in Roundup®/Kg egg. The results showed a decrease of hatchability rate in chicks treated with Roundup® (66%). In addition, no significant change was observed in body weights, yolk sac weight and relative weight organs except the liver and kidney were significantly increased with groups treated with glyphosate and Roundup® compared to the control group. The results showed that serum protein profiles were linearly significantly increased of serum phosphor, uric acid, aspirate aminotransferase, alanine transaminase and alkaline phosphatase in groups treated with Roundup®, as well as the serum concentrations of triglyceride altered after treatment with glyphosate. Furthermore, oxidative stress was observed in the treated chicks, the glyphosate and Roundup® induced changes of the content of malondialdehyde in both the liver and kidney, moreover decrease of glutathione peroxidase, total superoxide dismutase and catalase activity in the kidney tissue and serum. Additionally, changes also happened in the histomorphology of the liver and kidney tissue of the treated chicks. It can be concluded that Roundup® as a probable decrease of hatchability. Exposure to glyphosate alone or Roundup® caused liver and kidney histopathological alterations, serum parameters imbalances and oxidative stress, also induced a variety of liver and kidney biochemical alterations that might impair normal organ functioning in newly hatched chicks.  相似文献
