The aim of this study was to determine the changes in the mRNA expression of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) in hen ovarian follicles during follicular growth and in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). White follicles and the fifth largest to largest follicles (WF and F(5)-F(1), respectively) were collected from laying hens. To examine the effects of LPS, the laying hens were treated intravenously with LPS (1 mg/kg BW) 0, 3, 6, 12 and 24 h before examination. Expressions of TLRs and IL-1beta in the theca and granulosa layers were examined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Immunocytochemistry was performed to identify immunoreactive TLR-4. The theca layer expressed TLR-2, TLR-4, TLR-5 and TLR-7, whereas the granulosa layer expressed only TLR-4 and TLR-5. The expression of TLR-4 and TLR-5 in the theca layer increased significantly during follicular growth. In the granulosa layer, the expression of TLR-5 increased, but that of TLR-4 was unchanged. Expression of TLR-4 increased significantly during the period of 6 to 12 h of LPS treatment in the theca layer and during the period of 12 to 24 h in the granulosa layer of F(3). Immunoreaction products for TLR-4 were observed in theca interna and granulosa layers of WF and F(5)-F(1), with the greater amount observed in the theca interna. LPS treatment significantly increased expression of IL-1beta in the theca layer after 3 h and in the granulosa layer during the period of 12 to 24 h. These results suggest that TLRs are expressed in ovarian follicles and that TLR-4 and TLR-5 expression increase with the growth of follicles. Enhanced expression of TLR-4 and IL-1beta by LPS in the theca and granulosa layers suggests possible roles of TLR in recognition of microorganisms. 相似文献

Jhinuwa is an aromatic rice (Oryza sativa L.) landrace from the Pokhara Valley of Nepal. A total of 210 accessions comprising seven types of Jhinuwa rice landraces were randomly collected from the rice fields to evaluate inter- and intra-population variability based on agro-morphological traits. The experiment was conducted in factorial randomized complete block design with three replicates in 2005. The first six principal components (PCs) accounted for 76.6 % variation for agro-morphological traits. Major traits that accounted for the variation by six PCs includes days to heading, days to maturity, total grain panicle?1, fertile grain panicle?1, culm length, panicle length, milling recovery, head rice recovery, aroma, 1,000 grain weight, sterile grain panicle?1, grain sterility %, and leaf characteristics. Both principal coordinate analysis and cluster analyses revealed four phenotypic groups, two of which represent Bayarni, Jhinuwa, and Biramphul while the other two account for Tunde and Pakho Tunde. Tunde, Pakho Tunde, Kalo Bayarni, and Seto Bayarni showed higher intra- as well as inter-population variation compared to other populations. The phenotypic and genotypic coefficients of variation, broad sense heritability (h 2B) and genetic advance (GA) as a percent of the mean assessed for 210 accessions revealed high h 2B and GA estimates for leaf width, leaf length breadth ratio, ligule length, sterile grain panicle?1, grain sterility % and 1,000 grain weight. The current study demonstrates that improvement in Jhinuwa rice landrace is possible by selecting superior accessions from existing natural populations while selection should be focussed to market traits with higher h 2B and GA estimates. 相似文献

Effects of age, egg-laying activity, and Salmonella-inoculation on the expressions of gallinacin mRNA in the vagina of the hen oviduct 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Gallinacins (Gal) are antimicrobial peptides that play significant roles in innate immunity in chickens. The aim of this study was to examine whether age of birds and egg-laying activity (laying and non-laying caused by feed-regulation) affect the mRNA expression of Gal-1, -2, and -3 in the vagina of hens, and whether their expressions are changed in response to the stimulation with Salmonella enteritidis (SE) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS). White Leghorn hens were divided into groups of young and old laying hens, and groups of laying and non-laying hens after feed-regulation. Vaginal cells were cultured and stimulated with SE or LPS. Expressions of Gal-1, -2, and -3 mRNA in their vaginal mucosa and cultured cells were examined by quantitative real-time RT-PCR. The expressions of Gal-1, -2, and -3 of the vaginal mucosa were significantly greater in old birds than in young birds. Expression of these Gals in the vagina were decreased in the regressed oviduct of non-laying birds compared with laying birds. The expressions of Gal-1, -2, and -3 in the cultured vaginal cells were increased by stimulation with SE or LPS within 24 h. These results suggest that the mRNA expressions of Gal-1, -2 and -3 in the vagina of laying hens increased with age, whereas they decreased in the regressed oviduct during the non-laying phase. Also, synthesis of these antimicrobial peptides in the vagina may increase in response to SE and LPS to eliminate SE bacteria. 相似文献

The protons and neutrons in a nucleus can form strongly correlated nucleon pairs. Scattering experiments, in which a proton is knocked out of the nucleus with high-momentum transfer and high missing momentum, show that in carbon-12 the neutron-proton pairs are nearly 20 times as prevalent as proton-proton pairs and, by inference, neutron-neutron pairs. This difference between the types of pairs is due to the nature of the strong force and has implications for understanding cold dense nuclear systems such as neutron stars. 相似文献

Seed morphometric characters and oil content were studied in multiple-use plant, Calophyllum inophyllum L. of two countries, Australia (southern hemisphere) and Sri Lanka (northern hemisphere). Seven provenances were selected
which included three from northern Australia and four from Sri Lanka. Twelve Candidate plus trees (CPTs) each were selected
from 2 to 3 different locations within each provenance based on the morphometric and qualitative traits (GBH > 100 cm). Seed
collection in both hemispheres was carried out from May to August 2008. Calophyllum inophyllum L. provenances showed a distinct hemisphere variation in their seed-related characters and oil content. All provenances differed
significantly (P < 0.05) with one another in seed length. Seeds from Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka and seeds from Cardwell Australia recorded the
highest (≈57%) and the lowest oil (≈31%) content respectively. Strong correlations were found between seed morphometric characters.
Relatively weaker correlations were found between seed morphometric characters and oil content. Variations in seed-related
characters were largely attributed by the provenance contribution which shows the significance of the effect of genetic variability
on above mentioned seed related characters. 相似文献

Marine planktonic organisms, such as diatoms, are prospective sources of novel bioactive metabolites. Oxygenated derivatives of fatty acids, generally referred to as oxylipins, in diatoms comprise a highly diverse and complex family of secondary metabolites. These molecules have recently been implicated in several biological processes including intra- and inter-cellular signaling as well as in defense against biotic stressors and grazers. Here, we analyze the production and diversity of C20 and C22 non-volatile oxylipins in five species of the family Leptocylindraceae, which constitute a basal clade in the diatom phylogeny. We report the presence of species-specific lipoxygenase activity and oxylipin patterns, providing the first demonstration of enzymatic production of docosahexaenoic acid derivatives in marine diatoms. The differences observed in lipoxygenase pathways among the species investigated broadly reflected the relationships observed with phylogenetic markers, thus providing functional support to the taxonomic diversity of the individual species. 相似文献
