Thirty dogs with spontaneously occurring malignant neoplasms were treated monthly with carboplatin (CBDCA) given as a 30-minute intravenous infusion in a dose escalation study. Twenty-eight dogs were considered evaluable for toxicity. The maximally tolerated dose of CBDCA was conceptually defined as that dose, determined by logistic regression analyses of toxicity data, resulting in a 50% incidence of moderate toxicity (MOD₅₀) or a 5% incidence of severe toxicity (SEV₅). Each designated maximally tolerated dose was calculated for the first course of treatment only and for the first and second courses of treatment combined to estimate cumulative drug toxicity. The MOD₅₀ and SEV₅ for the first treatment course were 340 and 278 mg/M², respectively. MOD₅₀ and SEV₅ values for the first plus second treatment courses were 327 and 231 mg/M², respectively. The nadir of neutrophil and platelet counts occurred approximately 14 days after treatment. The mean neutrophil and platelet values for all dogs experiencing myelosuppression during the first two treatment courses were 1541/μL and 62,600/μL, respectively. Nonparametric pharmacokinetic analysis of plasma CBDCA values suggested that half-life (T_1/2), area-under-the-curve and total body clearance (CL_b) were not dose dependent. Volume of distribution (VD_ss) significantly increased with dose only between 100 and 150 mg/M², not between 150 and 300 mg/M². Dose-independent serum CBDCA pharmacokinetic disposition indicates that detailed investigation of tissue CBDCA distribution would be warranted and may identify novel dosing strategies that could improve the therapeutic index of CBDCA by minimizing toxicity.

Pronuclear Embryo Yield in Canindé and Saanen Goats for DNA Microinjection     

RR Moura  ES Lopes‐Junior  DIA Teixeira  IA Serova  LE Andreeva  LM Melo  VJF Freitas 《Reproduction in domestic animals》2010,45(5):e101-e106

The objective of this study was to examine the effect of donor breed on pronuclear‐stage embryo yield to be used for DNA microinjection in a transgenesis goat program. Twelve Canindé and twelve Saanen goats were heat synchronized using a progestagen‐cloprostenol treatment. Forty‐eight hours before the sponge removal, superovulation was induced with a total administration of 4.4 mg/kg bodyweight NIH‐FSH‐P1, given twice daily in decreasing doses over 3 days. In addition, goats received 100 μg of GnRH and they were hand‐mated at 36 and 48 h after progestagen removal. Embryo recovery was performed by oviduct flushing at 72 h after sponge removal. Embryos were microinjected with a DNA construct and noticeable swelling of the nuclei was the criterion for successful microinjection. The total diameter, cytoplasm diameter, zona pellucida thickness and pronuclei diameter were measured for each microinjected embryo. A higher (p < 0.05) percentage of fertilized ova was observed in Canindé (89.9%) than Saanen (36.2%) goats. In addition, Canindé donors produced a higher percentage of pronuclear embryos when compared with Saanen: 72.5% vs 20.6% (p < 0.05), respectively. Successful microinjection was verified in 96.7% and 73.3% of times in Canindé and Saanen embryos, respectively (p < 0.05). Significant differences were observed for all morphometric parameters except for cytoplasm diameter. In conclusion, under our study experimental conditions, Canindé were more efficient than Saanen goats concerning the pronuclear embryo yield and manipulation. The use of Canindé goats in transgenesis programs could be increase the interest in their breeding and could be contribute to saving them from extinction.  相似文献   

Mixed effects modeling of the disposition of gentamicin across domestic animal species     

Martín-Jiménez T  Riviere JE 《Journal of veterinary pharmacology and therapeutics》2001,24(5):321-332

An interspecies pharmacokinetic model for gentamicin was developed using the mixed effects modeling approach and serum disposition data obtained from the Food Animal Residue Avoidance Databank (FARAD). Data that met a priori quality criteria was obtained from the database and analysed using the traditional double logarithmic analysis and the mixed effects modeling approach. Body weight, brain weight and fever were the covariates of interest in our study. Population pharmacokinetic models across species were developed and validated with swine data. The parameter volume of distribution was modeled as a function of body weight. The total clearance was initially modeled as a function of body weight. The predictability performance of the model improved dramatically when the parameter brain weight was included in the covariate model for clearance. This was a surprising finding worthy of further study. The covariate fever seemed to influence the magnitude of the volume of distribution, although the scarcity of data pertaining to diseased animals makes this finding uncertain. We conclude that the pharmacokinetic characteristics of drugs such as gentamicin, can be predicted across species using a population pharmacokinetics modeling approach, and that clinical features that affect species in a similar manner can be also explored in this fashion.  相似文献   

Effects of dose and duration of therapy on gentamicin tissue residues in sheep   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

S A Brown  G L Coppoc  J E Riviere 《American journal of veterinary research》1986,47(11):2373-2379

The effects of different doses and dosage regimens on gentamicin pharmacokinetics and tissue residues were determined. Five groups of 12 sheep each were given gentamicin IM: group I, 2 mg of gentamicin sulfate/kg once; group II, 6 mg/kg once; group III, 18 mg/kg once; group IV, 6 mg/kg every 24 hours for 3 doses; and group V, 2 mg/kg every 8 hours for 9 doses. Serum concentrations were determined serially until sheep were killed and necropsied. Three sheep from each group were killed at 1, 4, 8, and 12 days after the last dose was administered. Renal cortex, renal medulla, liver, spleen, lung, skeletal muscle, and skeletal muscle at the injection site were assayed for gentamicin. An exponential equation was fitted to the serum concentrations, and various pharmacokinetic variables were determined. Serum clearance tended to increase as the single dose increased (P = 0.0588). Steady-state volume of distribution increased as the single dose was increased (P less than 0.05). Renal cortex contained the highest concentration of gentamicin which decreased in a biexponential manner. Concentrations in all tissues, except the injection site, were dependent upon the amount of the total dose, not the size of the injected dose (P less than 0.05). Concentrations at the injection site were up to 29 micrograms/g of tissue at 1 day after the last dose was given and were dependent upon the amount of total dose from multiple injections, not on the amount of each injected dose (P less than 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献   

Isolation of oral spirochetes from dogs and cats and provisional identification using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis specific for human plaque Treponema spp     

Valdez M  Haines R  Riviere KH  Riviere GR  Thomas DD 《Journal of veterinary dentistry》2000,17(1):23-26

Identification of plaque spirochetes from dogs is rare and no studies to date report cultivation of canine or feline plaque spirochetes. Plaque samples obtained from canine and feline patients were cultured in broth media. Spirochetes cultured were subjected to microscopic evaluation and were cloned on a solid medium. The clones were provisionally identified using species-specific PCR for treponema isolated from human plaque. Canine spirochete clones included Treponema denticola, T. socranskii ssp., T. vincentii, T. maltophilum, T. medium, and T. pectinovorum. Feline clones included T. maltophilum and T. socranskii. Non-amplified clones may represent novel treponemes. Future studies will be aimed at comparison of the spirochetes present in dogs and cats with or without periodontal disease.  相似文献   

Seed dormancy and germination in the summer annual Galeopsis speciosa     

LM KARLSSON  JAL ERICSSON  & P MILBERG 《Weed Research》2006,46(5):353-361

This study examined germination and dormancy in Galeopsis speciosa (Lamiaceae), a common summer annual weed in cold‐temperate areas. Seeds collected in southern Sweden were subjected to several experiments. The seeds were dormant at maturity. Seeds sown outdoors after collection produced a small number of seedlings that emerged early in the spring. After long cold stratification or stratification outdoors over two winters, the maximum germination was 40–50%; germination occurring over a wide range of temperatures. Warm stratification preceding cold stratification had no effect on germination, but repeated warm and cold periods seemed to promote germination. Gibberellic acid (GA) stimulated germination, but full germination was only achieved after more than 2 months of incubation at the most suitable temperature regime tested. Excised embryos grew and developed into normal seedlings. With these results, the species does not fit into the currently used system for seed dormancy classifications. The response to GA and the growth of excised embryos indicate non‐deep or intermediate physiological dormancy, but dormancy alleviation by stratification was not in line with the guiding principles for these classifications. Galeopsis speciosa has a strong dormancy that is sufficiently alleviated during the winter to allow germination of only part of a seed batch each year; hence a stepwise germination pattern occurs over a period of several years.  相似文献

Pharmacokinetics and metabolic inertness of doxycycline in young pigs   总被引：5，自引：0，他引：5  

J L Riond  J E Riviere 《American journal of veterinary research》1990,51(8):1271-1275

The disposition of doxycycline hyclate after IV administration of 20 mg/kg of body weight was studied in 6 pigs. Median elimination half-life, estimated in 4 pigs, was 3.92 hours. Mean (+/- SEM) total body clearance was 1.67 +/- 0.18 ml/min/kg, and mean apparent volume of distribution at steady state was 0.53 +/- 0.04 L/kg. In 2 pigs, secondary peaks in the logarithmic serum concentration-time profile suggested discontinuous enterohepatic cycling, and precluded using these pigs in the pharmacokinetic analysis. The extent of doxycycline binding to serum protein was 93.1 +/- 0.2%. Serum or urine from 3 of the pigs was analyzed by use of photodiode array detection and mass spectrometry of a high-performance liquid chromatographic column effluent. These procedures documented lack of doxycycline biotransformation in pigs. It is concluded that, despite an elimination half-life shorter than that reported in other species, doxycycline may be a valuable antimicrobial drug for use in swine practice, pending the development of appropriate formulations.  相似文献
