Rats were fat diets containing 6, 12, or 250 ppm iron throughout gestation and lactation. On day 17, pups immunized with sRBC were used to determine antibody synthesis by the Jerne plaque assay. In both iron-deficient groups, antibody formation was decreased by at least 50% compared to controls. For 3 weeks beginning on day 21, iron-deficient pups were fed either a control diet (35 ppm iron) or the same iron-deficient diet as fed to the dam. IgG and IgM formation was only slightly improved in repleted rats and remained significantly below that of rats fed the control diet throughout the experiment. In contrast, 250 ppm iron pups fed an iron-deficient diet postweaning had significantly decreased IgG and IgM production compared to littermates fed a control diet postweaning. Maternal iron deficiency during the critical pre- and postnatal growth periods may result in long-term impairment of humoral immunity that is not corrected by dietary iron repletion after weaning. 相似文献

Iron deficiency is among the most prevalent of nutrient-related diseases worldwide, but the long-term consequences of maternal and neonatal iron deficiency on offspring are not well characterized. We investigated the effects of a postweaning iron-adequate diet following neonatal iron deficiency on the expression of genes involved in iron acquisition and homeostasis. Pregnant rats were fed an iron-adequate diet (0.08 g iron/kg diet) until gestational d 15, at which time they were divided into 2 groups: 1) a control group fed an iron-adequate diet, and 2) an iron-deficient group fed an iron-deficient diet (0.005 g iron/kg diet) through postnatal d (P) 23 (weaning). After weaning, pups from both dietary treatment groups were fed an iron-adequate diet until adulthood (P75). Rat pups that were iron deficient during the neonatal period (IDIA) had reduced weight gain and hemoglobin concentrations and decreased levels of serum, liver, and spleen iron on P75 compared with rats that were iron sufficient throughout early life (IA). IDIA rats developed erythrocytosis during postweaning development. Further, hepatic expression of hepcidin in IDIA rats was 1.4-fold greater than in IA rats, which paralleled an upregulation of IL-1 expression in the serum. Our data suggest that an iron-adequate diet following neonatal iron deficiency induced an inflammatory milieu that affected iron homeostasis and early growth and development. 相似文献

Iron deficiency anemia in early childhood causes developmental delays and, very likely, irreversible alterations in neurological functioning. One primary goal for the present study was to determine whether the effects of late gestational iron deficiency on brain monoamine metabolism, iron content, and behavioral phenotypes could be repaired with iron intervention in early lactation. Young pregnant rats were provided iron-deficient or control diets from mid-gestation (G15). At postnatal d 4 (P4), pups from iron-deficient dams were out-fostered either to other ID dams or control dams while pups of control dams were similarly fostered to other control dams. Dietary treatments continued to adulthood (P65) when brain iron and regional monoamines were evaluated. P4 iron repletion normalized body iron status, brain iron concentrations, monoamine concentrations, and monoamine transporter and receptor densities in most brain regions. Dopamine transporter densities in caudate and substantia nigra were lower in ID rats but were normalized with iron repletion. Serotonin transporter levels in most brain regions and open-field exploration were also normalized with iron repletion. The success of this approach of early postnatal iron intervention following iron deficiency in utero contrasts to a relative lack of success when the intervention is performed at weaning. These data suggest that a window of opportunity exists for reversing the detrimental effects of iron deficiency in utero in rats and provides strong support of intervention approaches in humans with iron deficiency during pregnancy. 相似文献

Iron-deficiency anemia impaired the blastogenic response of splenic lymphocytes and partially purified T cells to Concanavalin A and phytohemagglutinin. The response of splenic lymphocytes and partially B cells to bacterial lipopolysaccharide was also significantly impaired. Caloric restriction in pair-fed mice did not have any significant effect. Blastogenic response to the three mitogens was restored to normal after anemic mice were fed the regular diet containing 25 to 30 mg Fe/kg (FeSO4) for approximately 10 days. We also found that in the anemic mice the mean wet weights per 100 g of body of spleen, heart, brain, and kidney increased, while those of the thymus and liver decreased. In the pair-fed mice only the mean wet weight of the liver significantly decreased. There was a small but significant decrease in the white blood count and peripheral lymphocyte count in the anemic but not the pair-fed mice. The mechanism by which iron deficiency impairs the cell-mediated immune response is discussed. 相似文献

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVESIron deficiency in early life is associated with developmental problems, which may persist until later in life. The question of whether iron repletion after developmental iron deficiency could restore iron homeostasis is not well characterized. In the present study, we investigated the changes of iron transporters after iron depletion during the gestational-neonatal period and iron repletion during the post-weaning period.MATERIALS/METHODSPregnant rats were provided iron-deficient (< 6 ppm Fe) or control (36 ppm Fe) diets from gestational day 2. At weaning, pups from iron-deficient dams were fed either iron-deficient (ID group) or control (IDR group) diets for 4 week. Pups from control dams were continued to be fed with the control diet throughout the study period (CON).RESULTSCompared to the CON, ID rats had significantly lower hemoglobin and hematocrits in the blood and significantly lower tissue iron in the liver and spleen. Hepatic hepcidin and BMP6 mRNA levels were also strongly down-regulated in the ID group. Developmental iron deficiency significantly increased iron transporters divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) and ferroportin (FPN) in the duodenum, but decreased DMT1 in the liver. Dietary iron repletion restored the levels of hemoglobin and hematocrit to a normal range, but the tissue iron levels and hepatic hepcidin mRNA levels were significantly lower than those in the CON group. Both FPN and DMT1 protein levels in the liver and in the duodenum were not different between the IDR and the CON. By contrast, DMT1 in the spleen was significantly lower in the IDR, compared to the CON. The splenic FPN was also decreased in the IDR more than in the CON, although the difference did not reach statistical significance.CONCLUSIONSOur findings demonstrate that iron transporter proteins in the duodenum, liver and spleen are differentially regulated during developmental iron deficiency. Also, post-weaning iron repletion efficiently restores iron transporters in the duodenum and the liver but not in the spleen, which suggests that early-life iron deficiency may cause long term abnormalities in iron recycling from the spleen. 相似文献

Recently we have shown the susceptibility of Fe-deficient rat intestine to oxidative damage during Fe repletion. The role of dietary antioxidants like ascorbic acid, alpha-tocopherol and a combination of both in counteracting the oxidative stress was tested in this study. Five groups of thirteen weanling WKY female rats were fed with an Fe-deficient diet for a period of 5 weeks. Another set of thirteen rats received an Fe-sufficient diet and served as the control group (Con). Oral administration of either vehicle (D), 8 mg Fe alone (D+) or in the presence of 24 mg ascorbic acid (D+ + C), 40 mg alpha-tocopherol (D+ + E) or a combination of both (D+ + C + E) per d for 15 d was carried out in Fe-depleted rats. The impact of this treatment protocol on Fe status, oxidative stress and antioxidant status at the site of Fe absorption was assessed. It was observed that though the indicators of Fe status were normalised on Fe supplementation, the oxidative stress as reflected by the levels of both thiobarbituric-acid reactive substances (TBARS) and protein carbonyls were significantly greater in D+ and D+ + C compared to D+ + E, D+ + C + E and Con groups. The mucosal cell DNA damage was seen in D+, D+ + C and D+ + E groups on electrophoresis. Functional integrity as assessed by the activities of alkaline phosphatase and lys-ala-dipeptidyl aminopeptidase were normalized in all the groups treated with the antioxidant(s). There were significant positive alterations in some of the endogenous antiperoxidative systems and in serum caeruloplasmin activity in D+ + E and D+ + C + E groups. Paradoxically, serum ascorbate levels were significantly lower in D+ + C than in D+ + E and D+ + C + E groups. This could be due to the protection offered by alpha-tocopherol in the presence of Fe. It is concluded that supplementation of alpha-tocopherol alone or in combination with ascorbic acid protects the gastrointestinal tract of Fe-deficient rats against Fe-mediated oxidative damage during Fe repletion. However, ascorbic acid alone does not protect the gastrointestinal tract against Fe-induced oxidative stress. 相似文献

Folic acid deficiency was induced in rats by feeding folate deficient diet containing normal (35 mg iron/kg diet) or marginal amounts (20 mg iron/kg diet) of iron. The effect of excess iron intake on liver folate repletion following supplementation with folic acid was studied. Large quantities of iron supplements (210 mg iron/kg diet) had no adverse effect on liver folate repletion. On the other hand the replenishment of liver folate reserves was better with excess iron intake. 相似文献

To check the hypothesis that adequate dietary iron supplementation reduces cadmium retention and cadmium-induced anaemia during fast growth, three different dietary iron concentrations (6 mg/kg=iron-deficient; 55 mg/kg=marginal iron supply; 180 mg/kg=luxurious iron supply) were offered to growing rats. Four groups of rats at different age (44 days150±6 g, 49 days180±3 g, 57 days220±4 g, and 84 days295±9 g) received a diet with 55 mg Fe/kg which is a marginal iron-supply during growth. Six animals in each age group were exposed to 10 mg Cd/l as CdCl2 in the drinking water for 1 week; six animals in each age group received no cadmium. In the youngest and oldest groups additional 6 animals were exposed to the same cadmium dose but received an iron-deficient (6 mg Fe/kg) and an iron-adequate diet (180 mg Fe/kg) together with corresponding controls. The state of iron repletion was monitored by the tissue iron content in liver, kidney, and duodenum as well as by the concentrations of haemoglobin, plasma iron and plasma transferrin. The youngest animals showed the highest percent weight increases. Cadmium administration influenced neither growth rates nor food and water intake. At a dietary iron content of 55 mg/kg, iron repletion was negatively correlated to growth while the cadmium content in liver and kidney showed a positive correlation. At fast growth, a dietary iron content of 6 mg/kg lead to iron-deficiency anaemia and high cadmium retention. At all dietary iron concentrations, cadmium retention as well as the cadmium-related reduction in haemoglobin concentration was significantly higher at fast growth. Adequate dietary iron supplementation reduced cadmium retention and cadmium-induced anaemia significantly. Thus, the delicate balance between iron supply and the increased iron demand during growth can be disturbed within one week by a daily cadmium intake as low as 0.7–1.3 mg Cd/kg body weight.Part of the data was presented in Bioavailability 93, Proceedings of Bioavailability 93, Vol. II, U.

The effects of the degree of esterification (DE) and the molecular weight (MW) of pectins on iron bioavailability were investigated in anemic rats. The pectins prepared differed (in DE and MW, respectively) as follows: P-A (73%, 860,000), P-B (75%, 89,000), P-C (22%, 1,260,000) and P-D (24%, 114,000). Rats were fed an iron-deficient diet (8 mg Fe/kg diet) for 14 d. The anemic rats were then fed a ferrous sulfate-supplemented basal diet (47 mg Fe/kg diet) or the basal diet containing one of the pectins (80 g/kg diet) for 10 d. None of the pectins used caused any significant reduction in the bioavailability of ferrous sulfate. Addition of pectin P-B to the diet resulted in significantly greater iron repletion. Compared with control rats fed with ad libitum access or pair-fed, rats fed P-B showed higher (P < 0.05) hemoglobin regeneration efficiency, hematocrit, serum iron concentration, and transferrin saturation, and lower unsaturated iron-binding capacity and total iron-binding capacity. Pectins P-A and P-D also slightly improved the hematological indices compared with P-C and control. The observed effects were dependent on the physicochemical properties of each pectin as determined by its MW and DE. 相似文献

Effect of the different intensities of iron-deficient anemia in pregnant rats on the maternal tissue iron and the fetal development was investigated. The different intensities of iron deficiency were produced by changing period of feeding on the iron depleted diet (0.38 mg/100 g diet) prior to gestation. The anemic rats were divided into three groups with the hemoglobin levels of 12, 10 and 8 g/100 ml on the first day of gestation. Then, rats of each group were fed on the iron adequate and on the depleted diets during gestation. The whole body weights of the three deficient animals were lower than those of the corresponding controls on day-21 of gestation. Food intakes of the three deficient groups tended to be lower than those of corresponding controls. The values of hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (Ht) and red blood cells (RBC) decreased with the progress of pregnancy, and the hypochromic anemia was observed in all deficient animals. Iron contents of various tissues and the ratio of ferritin iron to total iron in liver and spleen of each deficient group were also apparently lower than those of corresponding controls. The numbers of placenta of the deficient groups were similar to those of corresponding controls. The litter size of severe anemic-animals was less than those of light and moderate anemic-animals, and the average body weight of fetus in severe anemic-animals was much lower than those of other groups. These results suggested that a higher severity of anemia in the mother at the beginning of pregnancy may result in a more frequent resorption of the fetus but the anemic status did not affect the ability of gestation itself. 相似文献

Increased insulin sensitivity in iron-deficient rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Iron deficient (ID) and control (C) rats were studied to determine if severe iron deficiency alters insulin-stimulated glucose disposal. Euglycemic hyperinsulinemic glucose clamps were conducted by infusing insulin (2 m mu.kg-1.min-1, constant rate) for 120 min while maintaining euglycemia. In a 12-h fasted state, ID rats were hyperglycemic (109.4 +/- 4.0 mg.dL-1 arterial plasma glucose, x +/- SEM) when compared with C rats (86.9 +/- 3.4 mg.dL-1) (P less than 0.05). Even though insulin was infused identically on a per kilogram body weight basis for both groups, the resulting hyperinsulinemia was higher in ID rats (3.1 +/- 0.27 ng.mL-1) compared with C rats (2.3 +/- 0.4 ng.mL-1) at the end of the clamp. Glucose infusion rates required to maintain euglycemia were twofold higher in ID rats (27.0 +/- 5.4 mg.kg-1.min-1) versus C rats (13.1 +/- 3.3 mg.kg-1.min-1) (P less than 0.05). Circulating lactic acid increased in both groups, and the concentrations in ID rats (3.2 +/- 0.4 mmol.L-1) were significantly higher than those in C rats (1.8 +/- 0.5 mmol.L-1) at the end of the clamp. When the efficiency of insulin to dispose glucose was evaluated by calculating the glucose disposal divided by the prevailing insulinemia, ID rats could dispose of almost twice the glucose per unit of insulin [9.0 +/- 0.6 (mg.kg-1.min-1)/(ng.mL-1)] when compared with C rats [5.6 +/- 0.9 (mg.kg-1.min-1)/(ng.mL-1)] (P less than 0.05). The data indicate that insulin sensitivity is increased in ID rats and that ID rats cannot metabolize exogenous insulin as well as C rats. 相似文献

Vitamin A (VA) and insulin-like growth factors (IGF) are important regulators of a wide range of physiological processes. To investigate the IGF system's involvement in the physiological actions of VA, we examined the effects of VA status on components of the IGF system in rats. Male rats (3-wk-old) fed a VA-deficient diet for 11 wk developed VA deficiency, as confirmed by the depletion of serum retinol and hepatic retinyl palmitate. Rats fed the VA-deficient diet had significantly lower body weight (p < 0.05) and lower serum IGF-I concentrations than the rats fed the control diet. The decreases in serum IGF-I levels were accompanied by approximately 40% lower levels of the IGF-I mRNA in the liver and lungs. With respect to the gene expression of other IGF system components, VA deficiency caused a twofold induction of IGF-I receptor (IGF-IR) mRNA in the heart and a twofold reduction in IGFBP-6 mRNA in the lungs, but did not alter the expression of IGF-II, IGFBP-1, IGFBP-3, IGFBP-4 or IGFBP-5 in all tissues examined. When VA-deficient rats received a single injection of retinoic acid (2 mg/rat), tissue IGF-I and IGF-IR gene expression did not change after 4 or 8 h, while the expression of IGF-II, IGFBP-4, and IGFBP-6 mRNAs in some tissues increased rapidly. These results suggest a possible involvement of the IGF system in mediating the physiological actions of VA, including VA-supported growth, in the rat. 相似文献

Retention of cadmium in cadmium-naive normal and iron-deficient rats as well as in cadmium-induced iron-deficient animals 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The retention of cadmium was investigated in cadmium-naive normal and iron-deficient rats in comparison to rats with cadmium-induced iron deficiency. Rats subchronically (4 weeks) exposed to dietary cadmium (28, 56, 112 ppm Cd and 28 ppm Fe) received a radioactively labeled dose of 2 mumol Cd/kg body wt; acutely (no cadmium exposure with diet) treated rats received doses between 1 and 8 mumol Cd/kg body wt. Two animals of each group received iron (1 mumol/kg as 59FeSO4 in order to monitor iron absorption in parallel. After a period of 4 weeks of feeding a cadmium-fortified diet, the test dose was administered and after a 2-weeks period 109Cd and of 59Fe retention was determined. The results showed in part an unexpected pattern of cadmium retention: subchronic feeding of cadmium induced iron deficiency. This implies an immediate interaction between the two metals with regard to intestinal transfer of iron. The retention of iron was increased in the Cd-induced anemia to the same extent as that in iron deficiency induced by iron restriction. Cadmium retention in iron deficiency induced by iron withdrawal also showed a marked increase, which implies that iron deficiency stimulates the intestinal transfer system for both metals in a similar way. Contrary to this effect, the cadmium retention in cadmium-induced iron deficiency was reduced to about 30% of control values. A self-induced aggravation of the body cadmium burden, as a consequence of the iron deficiency which is known to result from subchronic exposure to feeding of dietary cadmium, was thus excluded. 相似文献

Groups of rats were fed diets providing 8 ppm iron (-Fe) and 250 ppm iron (+Fe) throughout pregnancy and lactation. In spite of the increase in apparent absorption of iron in pregnant -Fe dams, iron deficiency anemia developed, resulting in decreased iron levels in placenta, amniotic fluid and fetal liver. Copper concentration of amniotic fluid was elevated in -Fe dams. On day 17 of lactation, -Fe dams and their suckling pups had hematologic evidence of iron deficiency. While liver and spleen iron decreased in 17-day-old pups, levels of copper increased. Subcellularly, the greatest increase in hepatic copper in -Fe pups was found in the cytosol, thus the increased copper deposition is not similar to copper loading. Serum ceruloplasmin activity was significantly elevated in -Fe lactating dams and was slightly, but not significantly, increased in -Fe pregnant dams and suckling pups. 相似文献

Severe iron deficiency in the suckling and weanling rat is associated with lipid accumulation in serum and liver, impaired ketogenesis in the suckling pup and low levels of carnitine in some tissues. Carnitine has been effective in reducing high triacylglycerol levels in humans and rats. This study examined tissue triacylglycerol concentrations of iron-deficient rats supplemented with carnitine or iron. Iron-adequate (C) and iron-deficient (D) pups were weaned to diets containing 38 ppm Fe (c) or 6 ppm Fe (d) with or without 0.2% DL-carnitine (Carn) resulting in six experimental treatments: CcCarn, DdCarn, Cc, Cd, Dc, Dd. Males received the diets for 2 wk and female littermates for 4. After 2 and 4 wk, carnitine supplementation significantly increased carnitine content in liver, heart and skeletal muscle by 30-60% in rats from control and Fe-deficient dams. Carnitine treatment significantly lowered the triacylglycerol level in liver of 49-d-old Fe-deficient females, but did not affect other tissues at either time point compared to other dietary treatments. Fe supplementation did not increase carnitine content in tissues, but did reduce triacylglycerol levels in liver by 4 wk and in skeletal muscle at both time points. Possible mechanisms by which iron and carnitine may lower lipids are discussed. 相似文献
