AIM:To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of lipoic acid (LA) on redox regulation and digestive function in intestine of C57BL/6 mice fed high fat diet (HFD).METHODS:C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to one of three groups (n=8).The control group consumed an ordinary diet.The other two experimental groups were fed with a high fat diet, high fat plus 0.1% LA.After 6 weeks, the activities of digestive enzymes were examined.In order to evaluate the antioxidant status of the mice, superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in intestinal homogenate were measured.To investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of LA, the gene expression profiles in intestine were examined using the GeneChip microarray system.RESULTS:A depressed antioxidant defense system, accompanied by digestive and absorptive function impairment, was observed in HFD-fed mice.These changes were partially restored in the LA-treated group.DNA microarray analysis of intestine showed that LA ingestion up-regulated the expression of genes related to free-radical scavenger enzymes, digestive enzymes and transporters.CONCLUSION:Treatment with LA improves redox homeostasis and the function of intestine in mice fed HFD.The mechanism may involve preventing oxidative stress by scavenging ROS directly and increasing those of free-radical scavenger enzymes gene expression indirectly.  相似文献

Pharmacokinetics of cimetidine in dogs after oral administration of cimetidine tablets     

G. LE TRAON  S. BURGAUD  & L. J. I. HORSPOOL 《Journal of veterinary pharmacology and therapeutics》2009,32(3):213-218

Long-term oral treatment with cimetidine is recommended to reduce vomiting in dogs with chronic gastritis. Despite this, few studies have specifically examined the plasma disposition and pharmacokinetics of cimetidine in dogs, particularly following repeated oral administration. The pharmacokinetics of cimetidine following oral administration as tablets was investigated in healthy dogs. Cimetidine was absorbed rapidly post-treatment ( t _max = 0.5 h). A mean absolute bioavailability of 75% was calculated following a single oral administration of 5 mg cimetidine/kg body weight. After intravenous administration, a plasma half-life of 1.6 h was calculated. Repeated oral administration at the recommended dose rate and regime (5 mg/kg body weight three times daily) for 30 consecutive days did not lead to any accumulation of cimetidine in plasma. Food intake concomitant with oral administration of cimetidine delayed ( t _max = 2.25 h) and decreased the rate and extent of absorption ( AUC ) by about 40%. Cimetidine was well absorbed in fasted dogs. Administration of food decreased the bioavailability of cimetidine by 40%. Cimetidine does not accumulate over time in plasma when administered long term to dogs.  相似文献   

Squamous cell carcinoma originating from a cutaneous scar in a llama.          下载免费PDF全文

A nonhealing wound associated with a laceration in a 12-year-old llama was evaluated. Initial attempts at closure were unsuccessful and biopsy revealed scar tissue. Subsequent biopsies, 18 mo later, revealed squamous cell carcinoma with regional metastasis. This report describes squamous cell carcinoma, secondary to a traumatic wound in a llama.  相似文献   

Change of reactive oxygen species production in co-culture model of rat astrocytes and motor neurons VSC 4.1     

TANG Lu  PEI Yue-hong  ZHANG Nan  LE Wei-dong  FAN Dong-sheng  DENG Min  ZHANG Jun 《园艺学报》2009,25(12):2441-2446

AIM: To explore the mutual effect of co-culture of wild-type astrocytes (ASC) and motor neurons VSC4.1 (VSC) on the respective ability to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). METHODS: The inhibition rates of cell growth in ASC and VSC in co-culture or independent culture was detected after exposed to excitatory stimulus by MTT method. Real-time observation of ROS production by ASC and VSC labeled with Hoechst 33342 was detected by confocal microscopy under the conditions of co-culture or independent culture. RESULTS: Higher concentration of glutamate induced a higher inhibition rate in mixed cell growth than that in ASC alone, while lower concentration of glutamate induced a higher inhibition rate in mixed cell growth than that in VSC only. Real-time observation by confocal microscopy showed that ROS production by VSC under the condition of co-culture, which showed a notable increase at 15 min, was significant less than that in independent culture, which peaked at 5 min and was gradually decreased. ROS production by ASC in co-culture began to increase significantly at 10 min. CONCLUSION: Compared to independent culture, ASC reduces the resting ROS production by co-cultured with VSC, while ASC prolongs the duration of ROS production by VSC after exposed to excitatory stimulus.  相似文献

【目的】对江西省芝麻地方种质资源进行表型性状遗传多样分析,为江西芝麻种质资源的有效利用及开发提供理论参考。【方法】依托“第三次全国农作物种质资源普查与收集行动”从江西省39个县(市、区)收集到的132份芝麻地方种质为试验材料,对其23个表型性状(12个质量性状和11个数量性状)进行测定,并计算遗传多样性指数和变异系数。同时,对11个数量性状进行相关分析,并对供试种质进行聚类分析。【结果】23个表型性状的平均遗传多样性指数为1.2821,其中,12个质量性状的遗传多样性指数为0.3217~1.0307,平均0.7290;11个数量性状的变异系数为4.70%~43.58%,遗传多样性指数为1.6138~2.0627,平均1.8855。3种粒色类型芝麻种质中,以46份白芝麻种质表型性状的平均遗传多样性指数最高,为1.3602,74份黑芝麻种质和12份其他粒色(黄色、褐色、黄褐色、红褐色等)芝麻种质表型性状的平均遗传多样性指数分别为1.1782和1.0476。生育期与株高、始蒴高度、蒴果长、千粒重和蛋白含量呈极显著正相关(P<0.01,下同),但与含油量呈极显著负相关。供试的132份芝麻种质资源可分为四大类,不同类群种质的来源地存在地理位置的交错分布现象,其中,第Ⅰ类群可作为潜在选育芝麻高含油量新品种的亲本材料,第Ⅱ类群可作为潜在高产优良芝麻材料利用,第Ⅲ类群可作为潜在矮杆株型的亲本材料,第Ⅳ类群可作为潜在的高蛋白型亲本材料加以利用。【结论】江西芝麻地方种质资源的主要表型性状变异较大,遗传多样性较丰富,其中以46份白芝麻种质的遗传多样性更丰富。种质间亲缘关系与地理来源无必然联系。以高产高蛋白为育种目标时应选择株高较高,始蒴高度适中、蒴果较大、千粒重较高的材料为亲本,并据此进行后代选择。  相似文献

【目的】筛选抗枯萎病的生姜品种,建立抗病评价体系,为生姜枯萎病抗病品种选育及抗病机理研究提供理论参考。【方法】选取5个生姜主产区的主栽品种,采用室内人工接种法测定枯萎病菌(腐皮镰刀菌)侵染对不同生姜品种超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、苯丙氨酸解氨酶(PAL)、几丁质酶(CHI)、β-1,3-葡聚糖苷酶(GLU)活性及次生抗菌物质含量、超氧阴离子(O₂-·)、过氧化氢(H₂O₂)、丙二醛(MDA)含量等的影响,结合抗病系数、主成分分析、聚类分析、相关分析和隶属函数对5个生姜品种幼苗的抗病性进行综合评价。【结果】山东大姜病情指数最低(4.0)、发病率最低(4%)、发病周期最长(24 d),表现出较强的抗病性;罗平小黄姜病情指数最高(45.2)、发病周期最短(7 d),表现抗病性较弱。不同生姜品种幼苗接菌后的生理生化指标均出现不同程度的变化,其中,山东大姜的抗氧化酶(SOD、POD、CAT)活性、防御酶(PAL、CHI、GLU)活性和次生抗菌物质(总酚、类黄酮、木质素)含量均高于其他品种,O₂-·、H₂O₂和MDA含量低于其他品种,而罗平小黄姜呈现相反趋势。主成分分析将12个单项生理生化指标转换为3个独立综合指标,聚类分析将5个生姜品种划分为3类,结合隶属函数综合评价结果,5个生姜品种抗病性强弱表现为:山东大姜>凤头姜>竹根姜>贵州黄姜>罗平小黄姜,与人工接种试验中5个品种的发病程度一致。相关分析结果显示,SOD和类黄酮与抗病性综合评价值(D值)呈极显著正相关(P<0.01)。【结论】5个生姜品种中山东大姜抗病性最强,罗平小黄姜抗病性最弱;SOD和类黄酮可作为生姜枯萎病抗性鉴定的主要参考指标。  相似文献
