OBJECTIVE: To evaluate plasma glipizide concentration and its relationship to plasma glucose and serum insulin concentrations in healthy cats administered glipizide orally or transdermally. ANIMALS-15 healthy adult laboratory-raised cats. PROCEDURE: Cats were randomly assigned to 2 treatment groups (5 mg of glipizide, PO or transdermally) and a control group. Blood samples were collected 0, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes and 4, 6, 10, 14, 18, and 24 hours after administration to determine concentrations of insulin, glucose, and glipizide. RESULTS: Glipizide was detected in all treated cats. Mean +/- SD transdermal absorption was 20 +/- 14% of oral absorption. Mean maximum glipizide concentration was reached 5.0 +/- 3.5 hours after oral and 16.0 +/- 4.5 hours after transdermal administration. Elimination half-life was variable (16.8 +/- 12 hours orally and 15.5 +/- 15.3 hours transdermally). Plasma glucose concentrations decreased in all treated cats, compared with concentrations in control cats. Plasma glucose concentrations were significantly lower 2 to 6 hours after oral administration, compared with after transdermal application; concentrations were similar between treatment groups and significantly lower than for control cats 10 to 24 hours after treatment. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Transdermal absorption of glipizide was low and inconsistent, but analysis of our results indicated that it did affect plasma glucose concentrations. Transdermal administration of glipizide is not equivalent to oral administration. Formulation, absorption, and stability studies are required before clinical analysis can be performed. Transdermal administration of glipizide cannot be recommended for clinical use at this time. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of darglitazone, a compound of the thiazolidinedione class, on glucose clearance and lipid metabolism in obese cats. ANIMALS: 18 obese and 4 lean adult neutered female cats. PROCEDURE: IV glucose tolerance tests with measurements of glucose, insulin, and nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA) concentrations were performed before and 42 days after daily administration of darglitazone (9 obese cats) or placebo (9 obese and 4 lean cats). Additionally, cholesterol, triglyceride, leptin, and glycosylated hemoglobin concentrations were measured. RESULTS: Darglitazone-treated cats had significantly lower cholesterol, triglyceride, and leptin concentrations, compared with placebo-treated obese cats. A significant decrease in the area under the curve for NEFAs, glucose, and insulin during an i.v. glucose tolerance test was seen in darglitazone-treated cats. The drug was well tolerated. CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The response of obese cats to darglitazone was similar to the response to thiazolidinediones in obese humans and rodents Darglitazone was effective in improving insulin sensitivity and glucose and lipid metabolism in obese cats. 相似文献

Obesity is a rising problem in cats. It is a risk factor for several diseases and has been linked to impaired immunity. The goal of this study was to determine the effect of body composition and effects of diet on immune function in cats. Twenty-eight short-term obese and 12 lean cats with equal gender distribution were evenly and randomly divided into two groups which were either fed a diet containing saturated (SFA) or long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (3-PUFA) for a period of 6 months prior to testing. Blood was collected by venipuncture from the jugular vein. Blood samples were analyzed in a double blind fashion. A complete blood count was performed and lymphocyte distribution was examined by flow cytometric analysis with specific fluorescein-conjugated subset markers. Immune function was measured as follows: the proliferative activity of different cellular fractions was tested with polyclonal mitogens such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS), phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), Ca ionophore, and concanavalin A. Innate immune functions assessed were phagocytosis and natural killer cell (NK) cytotoxicity. A similar immune innate and adaptive immune response was elicited regardless of diet or body condition. However, there was no correlation between body condition, diet, and any of the quantitative and qualitative functional responses of the immune system. We conclude that short-term obesity and the fatty acid composition of the diet do not alter immune responses in cats. 相似文献

The potential of known and new insecticides to interfere with cuticle sclerotization was investigated using assays for key enzymes such as phenoloxidase, quinone methide isomerase and DOPA decarboxylase. Homogenates from the blowfly Lucilia cuprina and from the epithelial cell line from Chironomus tentans were used to examine the compounds under investigation. Phenoloxidases are known to oxidize DOPA, the substrate for DOPA decarboxylase. Since phenoloxidases were not detectable in C. tentans cell homogenates, inhibitor and kinetic studies were done for comparison with DOPA decarboxylase of this insect cell line. DOPA decarboxylase and phenoloxidase of L. cuprina exerted highest specific activities at early pupal stages (day 7). The apparent Km values for the two enzymes were 0·47(±0·21) mM and 0·71(±0·16) mM , respectively, using L -DOPA as substrate. DOPA decarboxylase from C. tentans had a Km value of 0·42(±0·18) mM . Quinone methide isomerase was most active in young pupae. In terms of substrate specificity for enzymic (mushroom-tyrosinase) production of different quinones from their corresponding catechols, that with dopamine quinone proved to be the most efficient. Synthesis of derivatives of L -DOPA and L -tyrosine led to a compound which inhibited both phenoloxidase and quinone methide isomerase. DOPA decarboxylase from L. cuprina and from cells of C. tentans was inhibited by carbidopa (IC50 values of 0·021(±0·011) μM and 0·031(±0·019) μM , respectively) and indomethacine (IC50 values of 22·6(±7·1) μM and 18·8(±9·7) μM ). Both compounds exerted a competitive type of inhibition and were able to interfere with development of L. cuprina. 相似文献

The inhibitory activities of several allosamidin derivatives on two family 18 chitinases, an insect enzyme from the epithelial cell line from Chironomus tentans, and a bacterial enzyme, chitinase A from Serratia marcescens, were evaluated. The following structural requirements are necessary for inhibition of the Chironomus enzyme: 1. One N-acetylallosamine residue can be omitted without impairment of enzyme inhibition. 2. At least one N-acetylallosamine sugar must be present. 3. Glucosamine can replace the allosamine moiety without a negative effect on the inhibitory activity. 4. The spatial arrangement of the allosamizoline moiety is important for inhibition. 5. If one sugar is omitted and the arrangement of the cyclitol residue is changed, the inhibitory effect is diminished further. For purified chitinase A from Serratia marcescens the arrangement of the aglycone moiety is equally important, but recognition of the sugar is different: 1. Omission of one allosamine residue decreases the inhibitory activity considerably. 2. Inhibition is improved if the remaining N-acetylallosamine is replaced by the epimer N-acetylglucosamine. Only endochitinase activity is affected, since chitin formation (up to 10-4 M ) and N-acetylglucosaminidase activity (up to 10-3 M ) are not impaired, at least in Chironomus cells. © 1998 SCI. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether dietary fatty acids affect indicators of insulin sensitivity, plasma insulin and lipid concentrations, and lipid accumulation in muscle cells in lean and obese cats. ANIMALS: 28 neutered adult cats. PROCEDURE: IV glucose tolerance tests and magnetic resonance imaging were performed before (lean phase) and after 21 weeks of ad libitum intake of either a diet high in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (3-PUFAs; n = 14) or high in saturated fatty acids (SFAs; 14). RESULTS: Compared with the lean phase, ad libitum food intake resulted in increased weight, body mass index, girth, and percentage fat in both groups. Baseline plasma glucose or insulin concentrations and glucose area under the curve (AUC) were unaffected by diet. Insulin AUC values for obese and lean cats fed 3-PUFAs did not differ, but values were higher in obese cats fed SFAs, compared with values for lean cats fed SFAs and obese cats fed 3-PUFAs. Nineteen cats that became glucose intolerant when obese had altered insulin secretion and decreased glucose clearance when lean. Plasma cholesterol, triglyceride, and non-esterified fatty acid concentrations were unaffected by diet. Ad libitum intake of either diet resulted in an increase in both intra- and extramyocellular lipid. Obese cats fed SFAs had higher glycosylated hemoglobin concentration than obese cats fed 3-PUFAs. CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: In obese cats, a diet high in 3-PUFAs appeared to improve long-term glucose control and decrease plasma insulin concentration. Obesity resulted in intra- and extramyocellular lipid accumulations (regardless of diet) that likely modulate insulin sensitivity. 相似文献

Bursaphelenchus fungivorus is reported for the first time in Portugal, identified as associated with Pinus pinaster bark and characterized on the basis of morphological and morphometrical characters for this species. Species identification was confirmed using restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis and sequencing of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of ribosomal DNA. Intraisolate genetic variability was detected among ITS sequences of the Portuguese B. fungivorus isolate. Phylogenetic analysis, obtained from multiple sequence alignment between ITS sequences of Bursaphelenchus species, revealed that the Portuguese B. fungivorus isolate clusters with other B. fungivorus isolates, forming a separate group close to B. seani highlighting a molecular proximity of these two species. 相似文献
