The woolly monkey (Lagothrix lagothricha): a possible model for human hypertension research     

M Müller  A Heldstab  H Luginbühl 《Schweizer Archiv für Tierheilkunde》1989,131(9):569-576

The anatomical-pathological findings of 15 woolly monkeys were comparable with those described in man with essential benign or malignant hypertension. Kidneys revealed arterio- and arteriolosclerosis or an onion peel-like proliferation, in some cases necrotizing endarteritis. Obesity due to restricted physical activity, unnatural feeding, and psychical and physical stress could have contributed to the development of this condition. Further, high vulnerability of the genus woolly monkey is postulated. Thus, essential hypertension of woolly monkeys appears to be a multifactorial disease.  相似文献   

Gas exchange in swine before, during and after motor activity of different intensity and length     

M Steinhardt  S Reimer  J Kutschke  U Bünger 《Archiv fuer experimentelle veterinaermedizin》1989,43(1):111-119

4 female and 2 male untrained fattening pigs, weighing 43.9 +/- 1.6 kg at the beginning of the experiment underwent continuous measurement of VO2, VCO2, and rectal temperature, prior to, during, and after running on a horizontal exercise belt set to speeds of 0.7, 1.3, and 2.5 m.s-1. The highest values of VO2 and VCO2 (ml-min-1/kg-1) and rectal temperature (degrees C) were usually measured few minutes after running. They were 18.84 +/- 3.65 and 20.4 +/- 4.53 as well as 41.2 +/- 0.4, 28.41 +/- 4.07 and 33.26 +/- 5.92 or 41.3 +/- 0.5, 26.21 +/- 7.7 and 32.32 +/- 7.14 as well as 40.5 +/- 0.7, depending on the above belt speeds. Exercise belt speeds of 1.3 to 1.8 m.s-1 were found to be suitable for testing aerobic metabolic capacity of untrained young pigs.  相似文献   

A simple field method for spinal cord removal demonstrated in the cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus).     

Christian Walzer  Anna Kübber-Heiss  Nadia Robert 《Journal of veterinary diagnostic investigation》2002,14(1):76-79

Removal of the spinal cord is considered time consuming and difficult. A delay in the necropsy procedure, especially in the central nervous system, can result in significant tissue autolysis and subsequent diagnostic difficulties. In the field, where many necropsies are performed, suitable electric saws are mostly unavailable. A technically simple and rapid method for spinal cord removal, requiring only a straightforward tool, has been devised. No necropsy-induced structural damage has been noted on histopathologic examination.  相似文献   

Detection of mycoplasmas in experimentally-infected bull sperm     

A Richter  H Pfützner 《Archiv fuer experimentelle veterinaermedizin》1989,43(5):721-724

Bull sperm pellets experimentally infected with various concentrations of Mycoplasma (M.) bovis, M. bovigenitalium, and M. californicum were stored several months at -196 degrees C and were subsequently tested for mycoplasmas, using different methods and culturing media. M. bovis was reliably identified by laboratory diagnosis up to a concentration of 10(2) cfu/pellet. M. bovigenitalium and M. californicum were found to make higher demands on the quality of culturing substrates. Recommended are 1-h broth incubation and 5-d broth breeding.  相似文献

The appearance of ovarian cysts in young sows after treatment with gonadotropin preparations for estrus induction     

M Alt  C Günther  L Richter  H Plonait 《Berliner und Münchener tier?rztliche Wochenschrift》1989,102(9):298-303

In 72 (46%) of 155 gilts discarded for genetic reasons after performance testing and housed under fattening conditions no heat could have been detected during the first 30 days. The gilts were assigned alternatingly to a control group and four different treatments of delayed puberty. The induction of puberty was carried out by injections of 1000 iu PMSG, 400 iu HCG and 2 mg oestradiol benzoate, 400 iu PMSG and 200 iu HCG and 800 iu PMSG and 400 iu HCG. If there was no estrus gilts were slaughtered 12 days later for examination of the ovaries. Those coming into estrus were slaughtered 8 days after disappearance of estrus. Estrus could be induced in 69 to 94% of the gilts, whereas 40% of the untreated showed estrus signs. After treatment with PMSG and HCG in 40 and 87% of the gilts cysts were found whereas none of the untreated and 26 and 29% of those treated with PMSG und HCG + oestradiol benzoate revealed ovarian cysts. In addition, those gilts that had come into estrus during the first 30 days were given injections of either 1000 iu PMSG or 800 iu PMSG and 400 iu HCG. The injections were made either on the 5th, 10th or 15th day of cycle. In both latter groups significantly more gilts showed standing heat than after treatment at cycle day 5. The results of inspection of the ovaries at slaughter and steroid hormones could not be assigned to a defined stage of the physiological ovarian cycle.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献   

The effectiveness of the combined treatment of thrombocytic hemorrhagic diathesis of dogs with prednisolone and blood transfusion in the model of an aspirin-produced thrombocytopathy     

I Nolte  C Niemann  K Failing  G Müller-Berghaus 《Tier?rztliche Praxis》1988,16(4):417-422

The administration of 20 mg/kg of acetylsalicylic acid in 18 clinically healthy dogs resulted in a thrombocytopathy with lengthened capillary bleeding time and irreversible aggregation inhibition. Through the set up of individual dilution series, one could conclude the proportional percentage of aggregation functional transfused thrombocytes. The capillary bleeding time was shortened after the intravenous injection of prednisolone (5 mg/kg) without measurable influence on the thrombocytes. Compared to the singular use of cortisone or blood transfusion alone, the effect on capillary bleeding time became magnified when one combined transfusion and corticosteroids. The fresh blood conserves (12 hours) were, with respect to the haemostyptical properties, superior to blood stored for 5 days. The component of aggregation-functional thrombocytes was, due to the prophylactic cortisone application prior to transfusion, not increased.  相似文献   

Interferon in sheep]     

M Büttner  K Wertz  W Hollwich 《Tier?rztliche Praxis》1991,19(5):481-485

There is only limited information on sheep interferon available. Recent publications have reported on: 1. an interferon (IFN) alpha subtype, which is secreted by the fetal trophectoderm into the lumen of the uterus between the 10th and 21st day of gestation. It was therefore named ovine trophoblast protein (oTP-1), and is responsible for signalling pregnancy to the ewe via high affinity receptors in the endometrium. It is thought that oTP-1 acts by directly influencing prostaglandin metabolism. 2. the role of lentivirus-induced interferon (LV-IFN) in the pathogenesis of Maedi/Visna. The results indicate that LV-IFN limits viral replication and therefore contributes to virus persistence and is also responsible for a chronic inflammatory process. 3. the mitogen- or antigen-dependent induction of ovine interferon gamma (IFN gamma) and its characterization.  相似文献
