Recombinant strains of herpesvirus of turkeys (HVT) were constructed that contain either the fusion protein gene or the hemagglutinin-neuraminidase gene of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) inserted into a nonessential gene of HVT. Expression of the NDV antigens was regulated from a strong promoter element derived from the Rous sarcoma virus long terminal repeat. Recombinant HVT strains were stable and fully infectious in cell culture and in chickens. Chickens receiving a single intra-abdominal inoculation at 1 day of age with recombinant HVT expressing the NDV fusion protein had an immunological response and were protected (> 90%) against lethal intramuscular challenge at 28 days of age with the neurotropic velogenic NDV strain Texas GB. Recombinant HVT expressing the NDV hemagglutinin-neuraminidase provided partial protection (47%) against the same challenge. Chickens vaccinated with recombinant HVT vaccines had low levels of protection against NDV replication in the trachea when challenged ocularly. Recombinant HVT vaccines and the parent HVT strain provided similar levels of protection to chickens challenged with the very virulent RB1B strain of Marek's disease virus, indicating that insertion of foreign sequences into the HVT genome did not compromise the ability of HVT to protect against Marek's disease. 相似文献

The cryopreservation of testicular tissue is a potential method for preserving male fertility. However, the effect of cryopreservation on bovine calf testicular tissue is scarce. This study investigated the effect of different cryoprotectants on bovine calf testicular tissue at the molecular level. Testicular tissue from ten immature bovine calves (6 months) was collected after slaughter and cryopreserved in an extender containing different concentrations of the following five cryopreservation solutions (CP): bovine serum albumin (BSA) with 5% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), trehalose with 5% DMSO, DMSO and glycerol and ethylene glycol (EG). After 7‐day cryopreservation, the expression levels of three spermatogonial stem cell (SSC)‐related genes, octamer‐4 (OCT4), KIT ligand (MGF/SCF) and kit oncogene (C‐KIT), were investigated by quantitative PCR (qPCR). The cell viability was highest for the tissues preserved with 30 mg/ml BSA (77.82% ± 1.22) and 40 mg/ml trehalose (74.23% ± 1.16) compared with other groups (p < 0.05), and the level of expression of the three genes was highest with 30 mg/ml BSA (p < 0.05). Compared with other CPs, the 30 mg/ml BSA and 40 mg/ml trehalose have the better cryopreserve protection. The 30 mg/ml BSA is the most viable media for the cryopreservation of testicular tissue from cattle. 相似文献

Plasma concentrations of PAG‐1 are used for pregnancy diagnosis and as a marker of placental/foetal well‐being, while those of PAG‐2 may be an indicator of abortion risk in Neospora caninum‐infected cows. Studies have shown that N. caninum infection modifies PAG‐1 and PAG‐2 patterns in maternal blood plasma. However, no prior work has examined the effects of N. caninum infection on concentrations of PAGs in foetal fluids. In this study, PAG‐1, PAG‐2 and pH levels were determined in the amniotic and allantoic fluids of foetuses collected at 152 days of gestation from control uninfected dams and from dams experimentally infected with N. caninum on Day 110 of gestation. Foetal fluids from infected foetuses had significantly higher PAG‐2 concentrations (p = 0.026) and pH values (p = 0.02) than fluids from non‐infected foetuses. In infected foetuses, significantly higher concentrations of PAG‐1 (p < 0.001) and PAG‐2 (p < 0.001) were detected in fluid samples showing antibodies against N. caninum than those without antibodies. Moreover, pH values were significantly higher (p = 0.011) in foetal fluid samples with antibodies than in samples from non‐infected foetuses. In conclusion, this is the first report on the effect of N. caninum infection on PAG levels in foetal fluids. Our results indicate that following the experimental infection of dams with N. caninum on Day 110 of gestation, foetal fluids collected from the infected foetuses of these dams featured higher PAG‐1 and PAG‐2 levels and pH values than fluids from non‐infected controls, provided that the samples tested showed the presence of antibodies. The clinical implications of these findings are that following infection with N. caninum, most cows will experience some level of placental damage and that this injury correlates with foetal fluid PAG levels and pH. 相似文献

The repeatability of ultrasonographic measurements of the canine thyroid gland was evaluated. The variability of three different parameters (the maximal length, width, and height) within observer, between observer and between dogs was assessed based on three different measurements made by each of three observers infive healthy beagle dogs. From the three parameters, the volume of the gland was estimated using a formula of a rotation ellipse. The height and the volume had the lowest intra- and interobserver variability, while measurements of the length had the biggest intra- and interobserver variability. The mean values, with their 90% confidence interval were: height = 0.53cm [0.33-0.73], length = 2.45cm [2.04-2.85], width = 0.62cm [0.46- 0.78], volume = 0.38 cm3 [0.20-0.55]. 相似文献

Pregnancy‐associated glycoproteins (PAGs) isolated from the placenta of various ruminant species are enzymatically inactive members of the aspartic proteinase family. The measurement of these proteins in the maternal blood can be a good indicator of the presence of a live embryo. As certain aspartic proteinases are present in biological fluids in physiological and pathological conditions at various concentrations, it was necessary to determine the specificity of three radioimmunoassay (RIA) systems currently used for the detection of PAG molecules. Commercially available members of the aspartic proteinase family like pepsinogen, pepsin, chymosin, rennet, cathepsin D and renin were tested in a wide concentration range (10 ng/ml – 1 mg/ml). Pepsinogen cross‐reacted in RIA 1, RIA 2 and RIA 3 over 1 mg/ml, 50 μg/ml and 500 μg/ml concentrations, respectively. In the presence of pepsin, cross‐reaction was observed in RIA 1, RIA 2 and RIA 3 over 1 mg/ml, 500 μg/ml and 1 mg/ml concentrations, respectively. Chymosin and rennet could cross‐react in RIA 2 and RIA 3, while renin and cathepsin D did not decrease the binding of the tracer to antisera more, than that of the minimal detection limit. As the plasma/serum concentrations of the examined aspartic proteinases reported in the literature were outside the concentration range where cross‐reaction was observed, it can be concluded that these RIA systems were specific for the detection of PAGs in biological fluids. 相似文献

Further investigations have shown that Difolatan applications initially slow down bark renewal; however, the thickness of the living bark becomes about normal after 2 years. The previous finding that Difolatan has no direct effect on latex yield was confirmed. Evidence was obtained that the renewing bark is of normal yield capacity.A suitable colouring agent to check the application of Difolatan is yellow iron oxide; Sterox NJ — a synthetic detergent — should be added to obtain stable suspensions.Promising yield increase was obtained when 0.25–1% 2,4-D was added to the Difolatan suspension in water. The percentage yield increase depends not only on the 2,4-D concentration but also on the use of admixtures, which give more bulk to the 2,4-D coating on the bark. The mixtures which gave the highest yield increase caused the greatest proliferation of the renewing bark and were less effective in controlling the disease. When relatively low concentrations of 2,4-D (up to 0.25%) are mixed with the Difolatan suspension, important yield increases can be obtained without much bark proliferation or loss of fungitoxicity; such applications open up possibilities for mild stimulation of younger tress.Samenvatting Gebleken is dat het fungicide Difolatan, toegepast bij de bestrijding vanPhytophthora palmivora — veroorzaker van een tapvlakziekte, bekend als black thread (Ned. naam: streepjeskanker) — aanvankelijk een remmende invloed heeft op het herstel van deHevea-bast. Echter, na enkele jaren bereikt de levende bast toch een normale dikte. Waarschijnlijk vermindert Difolatan in het begin de activiteit van het kurkcambium, waardoor minder harde bast en kurk worden gevormd. In verscheidene veldproeven werd aangetoond dat Difolatan geen effect heeft op de latexproduktie; de produktiecapaciteit van de herstellende bast zelf is waarschijnlijk ook normaal. Difolatantoepassingen op de bast worden beter zichtbaar door 1% geel ijzeroxide toe te voegen aan de waterige suspensie, welke 1% Difolatan (1.25% van het 80% spuitpoeder) en 0.1% Ortho spray sticker bevat; in dit geval dient nog 0.01% Sterox NJ (een uitvloeier) te worden toegevoegd om een stabiele suspensie te verkrijgen.Hogere rubberopbrengsten werden verkregen door 0.25–1% 2,4-D aan de suspensie toe te voegen. De produktie kan nog verder worden opgevoerd met behulp van hechters, die een dikkere laag residu op de bast achterlaten. De grootste produkties gingen gepaard met sterke woekering van de herstellende bast en een minder bevredigende ziektebestrijding. Evenwel, in betrekkelijk lage 2,4-D concentraties (niet hoger dan 0.25%) werden toch nog belangrijke meeropbrengsten verkregen zonder noemenswaardige bastwoekering of een sterke teruggang in fungitoxische eigenschappen van het mengsel. Deze formuleringen bieden mogelijkheden voor een milde stimulatie van jongere bomen, terwijl tegelijkertijd de streepjeskanker wordt bestreden. 相似文献

In the present study, the effect of free amino acid (FAA) diets on the intestinal absorption rate of methionine and leucine was studied ‘ex vivo’ with rats adapted for different periods of time to the diets, using the everted sac method. The adaptation period to the 21% FAA diet with an amino acid content based on casein was either, 0 (no adaptation, N‐ADA), 5 (short‐term adaptation, ST‐ADA), or 26–33 days (long‐term adaptation, LT‐ADA). Within the ST‐ADA and the LT‐ADA groups, three different levels of methionine were included: 50%, 100% and 200% of the level normally present in casein. All diets were iso‐nitrogenous and iso‐caloric. After the adaptation period (0, 5, or 26–33 days), intestinal everted sacs were prepared. Methionine or leucine was added to the medium as transport substrate. The methionine absorption rate of the rats of the LT‐ADA groups was higher than that of the N‐ADA groups. Furthermore, adaptation to 200% dietary methionine levels caused a significantly slower leucine absorption compared to the 100%, and 50% group. Methionine absorption was similar in the 100% and 200% groups, but the absorption of methionine in the 50% group was enhanced in the distal part of the intestines. We concluded that in response diets with 21% FAAs as only amino acid source, amino acid absorption is decreased to avoid toxic effects of high levels of methionine in the circulation. 相似文献
