Mycoplasma pneumonia of swine (MPS) lung lesions and immunogenic properties were compared between a Landrace line that was genetically selected for reduced incidence of pulmonary MPS lesions, and a non‐selected Landrace line. The MPS‐selected Landrace line showed significantly lower degrees of pulmonary MPS lesions compared with the non‐selected Landrace line. When changes in immunity before and after vaccination were compared, the percentage of B cells in the peripheral blood of the MPS‐selected Landrace line was significantly lower than that of the non‐selected line. Furthermore, the concentration of growth hormone and the mitogen activity of peripheral blood mononuclear cells in the MPS‐selected Landrace line showed significantly (P < 0.05) lower increases after vaccination than the non‐selected line. Conversely, the concentration of peripheral blood interferon (IFN)‐γ and salivary immunoglobulin A (IgA) after Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae vaccination was significantly higher in the MPS‐selected Landrace line than in the non‐selected line. Gene expression of toll‐like receptor (TLR)2 and TLR4 was significantly higher in the MPS‐selected Landrace line in immune tissues, with the exception of the hilar lymph nodes. The present results suggest that peripheral blood IFN‐γ, salivary IgA TLR2, and TLR4 are important immunological factors influencing the development of MPS lesions.  相似文献

This study aimed to identify the genes associated with the development of the rumen epithelium by screening for candidate genes by digital differential display (DDD) in silico. Using DDD in NCBI's UniGene database, expressed sequence tag (EST)‐based gene expression profiles were analyzed in rumen, reticulum, omasum, abomasum and other tissues in cattle. One hundred and ten candidate genes with high expression in the rumen were derived from a library of all tissues. The expression levels of 11 genes in all candidate genes were analyzed in the rumen, reticulum, omasum and abomasum of nine Japanese Black male calves (5‐week‐old pre‐weaning: n = 3; 15‐week‐old weaned calves: n = 6). Among the 11 genes, only 3‐hydroxy‐3‐methylglutaryl‐CoA synthase 2 (HMGCS2), aldo‐keto reductase family 1, member C1‐like (AKR1C1), and fatty acid binding protein 3 (FABP3) showed significant changes in the levels of gene expression in the rumen between the pre‐ and post‐weaning of calves. These results indicate that DDD analysis in silico can be useful for screening candidate genes related to rumen development, and that the changes in expression levels of three genes in the rumen may have been caused by weaning, aging or both. © 2015 Japanese Society of Animal Science  相似文献   

Immunogenic properties and mycoplasmal pneumonia of swine (MPS) lung lesions in Large White pigs selected for higher peripheral blood immune capacity          下载免费PDF全文

Liushiqi Borjigin  Tomoyuki Shimazu  Yuki Katayama  Meihua Li  Takumi Satoh  Kouichi Watanabe  Haruki Kitazawa  Sang‐gun Roh  Hisashi Aso  Kazuo Katoh  Takafumi Uchida  Yoshihito Suda  Akiko Sakuma  Mituru Nakajo  Keiichi Suzuki 《Animal Science Journal》2016,87(5):638-645

Immunogenic properties and mycoplasmal pneumonia of swine (MPS) lung lesions were compared between the immunity‐selected Large White line and the non‐selected Large White line. The selected Large White line showed a higher level of pulmonary MPS lesions compared with the non‐selected Large White line. Subsequent to vaccination, the percentage of natural killer cells and T cells (CD3⁺CD4⁺CD8^‐ and CD3⁺CD4^?CD8⁺ T cells) were significantly increased in the non‐selected line but remained unchanged in the immunity‐selected Large White line. Secretion of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae vaccine‐specific immunoblogulin G and phagocyte activity in peripheral blood were significantly higher in the immunity‐selected Large White line than in the non‐selected line. Expression of interleukin (IL)‐4 and IL‐6 messenger RNA in hilar lymph nodes was significantly lower in the immunity‐selected Large White line than in the non‐selected line. However, expression of IL‐10 in all immune tissues was significantly higher in the immunity‐selected Large White line. These results suggest that the selection for high immunity was not effective in increasing resistance to MPS lung lesions.  相似文献   

Mycoplasma pneumonia of swine (MPS) resistance and immune characteristics of pig lines generated by crossing an MPS pulmonary lesion selected Landrace line and a highly immune capacity selected Large White line          下载免费PDF全文

Liushiqi Borjigin  Tomoyuki Shimazu  Yuki Katayama  Kouichi Watanabe  Haruki Kitazawa  Sang‐gun Roh  Hisashi Aso  Kazuo Katoh  Takafumi Uchida  Yoshihito Suda  Akiko Sakuma  Mituru Nakajo  Keiichi Suzuki 《Animal Science Journal》2016,87(8):972-981

To understand the influence of crossbreeding on Mycoplasma pneumonia of swine (MPS) resistance and immune characteristics, two crossbred lines were characterized. One crossbred line, LaWa, was generated by crossing the MPS pulmonary lesion selected Landrace line (La) and the highly immune‐selected Large White line (Wa). The second crossbred line, LaWb, was generated by crossing the La line and the nonselected Large White line (Wb). The crossbred LbWb line (nonselected Landrace line × nonselected Large White line) and the La line were used as controls. The LaWa and LaWb lines had an intermediate level of MPS lung lesions between La and LbWb lines, although the difference was not statistically significant. After stimulation with sheep red blood cells (SRBCs), the LaWb and LaWa lines showed immune characteristics similar to that of the La line; the number of monocytes in peripheral blood increased, while B cells, T cells, secretion of SRBC‐specific immunoglobulin G, and interleukin (IL)‐13 decreased. Additionally, the number of natural killer (NK) cells and the expression of IL‐4 and IL‐17 were significantly higher in the LaWb and LaWa lines, respectively. These data suggested that crossbreeding of La and Wa lines resulted in the inheritance of some of the selected immune responses.  相似文献   

Production of HanWoo (Bos taurus coreanae) fetuses following interbreed somatic cell nuclear transfer     

Roh S  Yoon JT 《The Journal of veterinary medical science / the Japanese Society of Veterinary Science》2001,63(9):945-948

The possibility of producing HanWoo (Bos taurus coreanae) calves from transferable bovine embryos, obtained by interbreed nuclear transfer using Holstein cytoplasts and surrogates, was investigated. As donor nuclei, HanWoo fetal fibroblasts were used. Cells were induced into quiescence by serum deprivation for 4-7 days before nuclear transfer. In vitro matured Holstein oocytes were enucleated, and single donor cell was placed into the perivitelline space of enucleated oocyte. After reconstruction, the embryos were fused. activated and cultured. On day 7, the embryos that developed to the blastocyst stages were transferred into Holstein recipient cows on day 6 to 7 of estrous cycle (estrus=0). The reconstructed embryos were successfully fused (58.8%; 47/80), cleaved (91.5%; 43/47), and developed to blastocysts (29.8%; 14/47). Eleven blastocysts were transferred into 5 Holstein recipient cows. Two recipients were pregnant, confirmed by ultrasonography at day 60 of gestation. But, one of them was opened between on day 80 to 100 of pregnancy, and the other had a stillbirth on day 255. The stillborn calf was physically normal, and we couldn't find any evidence of anomaly. These results show that cells derived from HanWoo somatic cell lines can be reprogrammed by interbreed nuclear transfer and develop subsequently in vivo as well as in vitro.  相似文献   

Improved monospermic fertilization and subsequent blastocyst formation of bovine oocytes fertilized in vitro in a medium containing NaCl of decreased concentration     

Roh S  Hwang W  Lee B  Lim J  Lee E 《The Journal of veterinary medical science / the Japanese Society of Veterinary Science》2002,64(8):667-671

The objective of this study was to evaluate whether changes in NaCl concentration in a fertilization medium could improve normal fertilization and preimplantation development of bovine oocytes. In vitro matured bovine oocytes were inseminated with frozen-thawed semen for 18 hr in a Tyrode's medium with albumin, lactate and pyruvate (TALP), to which 114 (TALP-114), 96 (TALP-96) or 78 (TALP-78) mM NaCl was added. Presumptive zygotes were cultured for 192 hr in a modified TALP containing 90 mM NaCl, 1.5 mM glucose, 0.3% (w/v) BSA, minimal essential medium (MEM) essential and nonessential amino acids, and insulin-transferrin-selenium complex. Lower polyspermy rate was obtained by the insemination in TALP-96 (7.8 +/- 2.3%) than by the insemination in TALP-114 (25.6 +/- 1.4%), without decrease in male pronucleus (MPN) formation. Fertilization in TALP-78 also yielded decreased polyspermic fertilization (3.8 +/- 1.5%), but significant decrease in MPN formation was found (63.1 +/- 3.1%). In preimplantation development, more blastocysts developed from oocytes inseminated in TALP-96 (24.1 +/- 1.7%) than from oocytes inseminated in TALP-114 (16.8 +/- 1.4%). TALP-78, however, did not improve preimplantation development beyond the 8-cell stage compared with TALP-114. Mean cell number of blastocyst was higher when oocytes were fertilized in TALP-96 (137.0 +/- 4.5) than in TALP-114 (123.1 +/- 5.1) and in TALP-78 (102.3 +/- 4.5). These results demonstrate that insemination of bovine oocytes in a TALP with decreased NaCl concentration (96 mM) improves blastocyst formation and embryo viability. Decrease in NaCl concentration below 96 mM, however, may delay or inhibit MPN formation, and inhibits subsequent development in vitro.  相似文献

A simplified one-step nuclear transfer procedure alters the gene expression patterns and developmental potential of cloned porcine embryos     

Sang Kyu Park  Sangho Roh  Jong-Im Park 《Journal of veterinary science (Suw?n-si, Korea)》2014,15(1):73-80

Various somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) techniques for mammalian species have been developed to adjust species-specific procedures to oocyte-associated differences among species. Species-specific SCNT protocols may result in different expression levels of developmentally important genes that may affect embryonic development and pregnancy. In the present study, porcine oocytes were treated with demecolcine that facilitated enucleation with protruding genetic material. Enucleation and donor cell injection were performed either simultaneously with a single pipette (simplified one-step SCNT; SONT) or separately with different pipettes (conventional two-step SCNT; CTNT) as the control procedure. After blastocysts from both groups were cultured in vitro, the expression levels of developmentally important genes (OCT4, NANOG, EOMES, CDX2, GLUT-1, PolyA, and HSP70) were analyzed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Both the developmental rate according to blastocyst stage as well as the expression levels CDX2, EOMES, and HSP70 were elevated with SONT compared to CTNT. The genes with elevated expression are known to influence trophectoderm formation and heat stress-induced arrest. These results showed that our SONT technique improved the development of SCNT porcine embryos, and increased the expression of genes that are important for placental formation and stress-induced arrest.  相似文献   

Confirmation of hybrid origin in Arisaema (Araceae) using molecular markers     

Ae Kyung Lee  Young Hee Joung  Xue Wei Wu  Heoy Kyung Jung  C. John Burk  Laurie L. Sanders  Mark S. Roh  Jeung Keun Suh 《Scientia Horticulturae》2011

A population of hybrids between Arisaema triphyllum subsp. stewardsonii and A. dracontium was investigated using molecular markers to document the hybrid origin. Total genomic DNA was extracted from A. triphyllum, A. dracontium, and the hybrids, and subjected to sequence analysis of various regions of intergenic spacer and genes of chloroplast or intergenic spacer and genes of nuclear ribosome for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Clustering was performed using the unweighted pair group method with averages (UPGMA) tested by bootstrap (BS). Hybrid origin could not be easily confirmed in some regions. However, dendrograms constructed with a combined sequence analysis of A. triphyllum 26S ribosomal RNA gene [sequence identification (SI) 467] plus A. tortuosum phytochrome C-like (phyC) gene (SI 468) were very similar to dendrograms constructed from sequences of all regions. This suggests that selecting SI 467 and SI 468 would be practical to identify hybrid origins involving two parental species. Clustering of hybrids together with the female parent in most target regions suggests that, in Arisaema, cpDNA is considered maternally inherited.  相似文献
