Vascular endothelial growth factor‐A (VEGF) influences several physiological processes including endothelial cell function, angiogenesis and maintenance of organ/tissue capillarity. While the functional aspects of VEGF were vigorously investigated, only little detail is known on structural integrity of skeletal muscle fibers and capillaries in mice lacking VEGF expression in their muscles. Therefore, we assessed systematically the architecture of the glycolytic plantaris and the oxidative soleus muscles obtained from muscle‐specific VEGF knockout (mVEGF‐KO, n = 7) mice and their wild‐type (WT, n = 7) littermates by morphometry after transmission electron microscopy. The capillary/fiber ratio was lower (plantaris: ?63.5%; soleus: ?54.8%; P ≤ 0.05) in mVEGF‐KO mice than in WT mice. In plantaris, quantification of volume density (Vv) of compartments revealed higher Vv of total mitochondria (+56.5%, P ≤ 0.05) as well as higher Vv‐values for both intrafibrillar (+39%; P ≤ 0.05) and subsarcolemmal (+220%; P ≤ 0.05) mitochondrial pools in mVEGF‐KO mice than WT mice. The capillary phenotype also differed (P ≤ 0.05) between the two mouse‐strains: Vv (–17.4%), absolute area size (–19.1%) and thickness (–19.6%) of the endothelium layer were lower and Vv of capillary lumen (+15.1%) was higher in mVEGF‐KO mice than in WT littermates. In soleus, mitochondrial Vv in fibers and the structural indicators specific to the capillary phenotype exhibited the same tendency in differences between the mouse strains without reaching statistical significance. Our morphometric analysis demonstrates that the lower capillary supply in plantaris of mVEGF‐KO mice is accompanied by higher mitochondrial Vv in muscle fibers as well as lumen dilation and endothelium thinning of capillaries. These structural alterations were more pronounced in a glycolytic than an oxidative muscle. Anat Rec, 300:2239–2249, 2017. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

目的:探讨慢性皮质酮注射对小鼠抑郁样行为以及脑糖原水平的影响。方法:将40只雄性C57BL/6N小鼠随机分为正常对照组与模型组,模型组小鼠连续4周给予皮质酮皮下注射,构建慢性应激抑郁障碍小鼠模型。采用强迫游泳实验和旷场实验验证慢性应激模型的建立;放免法测定小鼠血清中皮质酮(CORT)水平;采用蛋白免疫印迹法检测海马突触素(SYP)和脑源性神经营养因子(BDNF)的蛋白表达水平;采用荧光间接测定法检测海马组织的糖原以及糖原合酶和糖原磷酸化酶的水平。结果:与正常对照组相比,模型组强迫游泳静止不动时间延长(P0.01)、自主活动能力降低(P0.01),表明慢性皮质酮注射诱导小鼠产生抑郁样行为。抑郁小鼠的皮质酮明显升高(P0.01)。皮质酮注射降低海马SYP和BDNF的蛋白表达(P0.01),同时海马组织糖原含量减少(P0.05),糖原合酶的活性降低(P0.05),而糖原磷酸化酶活性增加(P0.05)。结论:慢性皮质酮注射引起的海马神经元损伤和诱导小鼠抑郁样行为,可能与皮质酮降低海马糖原水平有关。 相似文献

We have described that administration of seeds or parts of the seed of Senna occidentalis (coffee senna) for long periods, induces histochemical changes in the skeletal muscles of hens and rats that are characteristic of a mitochondrial myopathy--as decrease of SDH and COX activity, with some COX negative fibers. In this experimental model of mitochondrial myopathy, as in many human mitochondrial diseases, there is a random distribution of COX negative fibers. Some fibers are completely COX negative while others are partially negative and others are completely positive. In the present work we have studied the distribution of COX negative mitochondria at transmission electron microscopy in skeletal muscle of rats in this experimental myopathy. In myofibers of intoxicated animals the expression of COX was heterogeneous. The histochemical reaction was observed in the internal membrane (more evident in mitochondrial cristae) of all mitochondria of some myofibers, while it was almost absent in other myofibers. In these myofibers the great part of the mitochondria were negative for COX reaction while other ones had a weak expression of this enzyme (dot or focal expression of COX). Our results indicated that the COX mitochondrial activity is heterogeneously impaired in myofibers of rats intoxicated with S. occidentalis. These abnormalities remember those observed in some types of human mitochondrial myopathies. 相似文献

The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of aging on plasma and free corticosterone (CORT) levels in the brain in basal conditions and in response to an acute stressor. Microdialysis experiments were performed in the hippocampus (HC) and the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of young adult (6 months) and aged (24 months) male Wistar rats. Basal free levels of CORT in the HC and the PFC were higher in aged animals. Restraint stress increased plasma CORT and free CORT levels in the HC and the PFC both in young and aged animals. However, while the increase of plasma CORT was higher in aged rats compared with young rats, the increases of free CORT in the HC and the PFC were not different between these two groups of rats. These results suggest that the changes produced by aging in the brain may be related to the enhanced basal levels of free CORT and not to the CORT increases in response to stress. 相似文献

There is some evidence suggesting that stress may induce diabetes mellitus; the effects of restraint stress however need to be investigated. The present study investigates the role of chronic restraint stress on carbohydrate metabolism in male rats. The animals of the stressed group (n=8) were exposed to different restraint stressors (1 h twice daily) for 30 days. On days 1, 15 and 30, before stress exposure, the animals were weighed and fasting blood samples were obtained by tail snipping and subsequently oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT) were carried out. Fasting plasma glucose levels on the 15th day and the plasma glucose concentrations, on the 15th and 30th days of the experiment at 15 and 60 min following OGTT, in the stressed group, were significantly higher as compared to the control group. In the stressed group, fasting plasma insulin levels on the 15th and 30th days of the experiment and the plasma insulin concentrations, on the 15th day at 15 and 60 min after performing OGTT, were significantly lower as compared to the control group. Fasting plasma corticosterone concentrations were significantly increased on the 15th day of the experiment in the stressed rats as compared to the control rats and to concentrations on the 1st day. The weights of the stressed rats on the 15th and 30th experimental days were significantly lower than the controls. In conclusion, chronic restraint stress for 30 days leads to low body weight gain in rats and impairs glucose metabolism perhaps by affecting corticosterone and insulin secretion and by inducing a degree of insulin resistance. 相似文献

Chronic corticosterone affects brain weight, and mitochondrial, but not glial volume fraction in hippocampal area CA3 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Corticosterone (CORT), the predominant glucocorticoid in rodents, is known to damage hippocampal area CA3. Here we investigate how that damage is represented at the cellular and ultrastructural level of analyses. Rats were injected with CORT (26.8 mg/kg, s.c.) or vehicle for 56 days. Cell counts were estimated with the physical disector method. Glial and mitochondrial volume fractions were obtained from electron micrographs. The effectiveness of the CORT dose used was demonstrated in two ways. First, CORT significantly inhibited body weight gain relative to vehicles. Second, CORT significantly reduced adrenal gland, heart and gastrocnemius muscle weight. Both the adrenal and gastrocnemius muscle weight to body weight ratios were also significantly reduced. Although absolute brain weight was reduced, the brain to body weight ratio was higher in the CORT group relative to vehicles, suggesting that the brain is more resistant to the effects of CORT than many peripheral organs and muscles. Consistent with that interpretation, CORT did not alter CA3 cell density, cell layer volume, or apical dendritic neuropil volume. Likewise, CORT did not significantly alter glial volume fraction, but did reduce mitochondrial volume fraction. These findings highlight the need for ultrastructural analyses in addition to cellular level analyses before conclusions can be drawn about the damaging effects of prolonged CORT elevations. The relative reduction in mitochondria may indicate a reduction in bioenergetic capacity that, in turn, could render CA3 vulnerable to metabolic challenges. 相似文献

Cytochrome c oxidase and mitochondrial F1F0-ATPase (ATP synthase) activities in platelets and brain from patients with Alzheimer's disease 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Evidence suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction is prominent in Alzheimer's disease (AD). A failure of one or more of the mitochondrial electron transport chain enzymes or of F(1)F(0)-ATPase (ATP synthase) could compromise brain energy stores, generate damaging reactive oxygen species (ROS), and lead to neuronal death. In the present study, cytochrome c oxidase (COX) and F(1)F(0)-ATPase activities of isolated mitochondria from platelets and postmortem motor cortex and hippocampus from AD patients and age-matched control subjects were assayed. Compared with controls, COX activity was decreased significantly in platelets (-30%, P < 0.01, n = 20) and hippocampus (-35 to -40%, P < 0.05, n = 6), but not in motor cortex from the AD patients. In contrast, in AD platelets and brain tissues, F(1)F(0)-ATP hydrolysis activity was not significantly changed. Moreover, the ATP synthesis rate was similar in mitochondria of platelets from AD patients and controls. These results demonstrate that COX but not F(1)F(0)-ATPase is a mitochondrial target in AD, in both a brain association area and in platelets. A reduced COX activity may make the tissue vulnerable to excitotoxicity or reduced oxygen availability. 相似文献

Corticotropic and serotonergic responses to acute stress with/without prior exercise training in different rat strains 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Martin CL Duclos M Aguerre S Mormede P Manier G Chaouloff F 《Acta physiologica Scandinavica》2000,168(3):421-430
The ability to cope with exercise training depends both on environmental and genetic background; however, whether the genetic status may affect (i) the hormonal status of trained subjects and, (ii) its responses to a heterotypic stressor is unknown. Herein, we have used Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats (SHR) and Lewis rats, that differ with regard to their psychoneuroendocrine profiles, to study the influences of an 8-week training programme and/or a 1-h immobilization stress on plasma adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) and corticosterone levels. In addition, brain serotonin metabolism was also measured as an index of neurochemical reactivity to stress. The amplitude of immobilization-elicited increases in ACTH levels which differed with the rat strain (Lewis > SHR), was amplified by prior training; besides, training decreased the strain difference in basal corticosterone (SHR > Lewis) and affected corticosterone response to immobilization in a strain-dependent manner. Thus, immobilization, which increased corticosterone levels in sedentary Lewis but not in SHRs, did not reveal interstrain differences in trained rats. Taken with the observation of a stimulatory effect of training on adrenal weights in SHRs, but not in Lewis, it is concluded that the effects of training on the corticotropic axis depend on the genetic profile of the individual. Lastly, training amplified the response of midbrain (but not striatum or hippocampus) serotonin metabolism to immobilization in a strain-independent manner although the levels of serotonin precursor, namely tryptophan, varied with training and immobilization in a strain-dependent manner. This study shows that some neuroendocrine and neurochemical effects of training undergo interindividual variability. 相似文献

Because of the pathogenic effects of chronic stress exposure, it is important to identify factors, such as effective coping strategies, that mitigate stress-induced pathology. Of interest in the present study was the consistency of behavioral responses across a diverse array of stressors. Sixteen male and 16 female Long-Evans rats were assigned to either a stress or control group. The stressed animals were subsequently exposed to a battery of ecologically relevant stressors (e.g., predator odor, novel stimuli, and immunological challenge) to determine trends in coping strategies. Blood was collected for corticosterone (CORT) assay and brains were harvested for assessment of fos immunoreactivity in the paraventricular hypothalamus (PVH) and central amygdala (CEA) following exposure to the final stressor of fox urine. A correlational analysis indicated that certain response strategies (e.g., latency to respond in different stress tests such as the open-field and novel item tests) persist across several behavioral tests, especially those tests involving exploratory components. A subsequent principal component factor analysis revealed the following four components: initiative to explore, low reactivity, variable reactivity, and high reactivity. Females exhibited higher recovery CORT levels than males; however, sex only affected one behavioral response measure (i.e., females demonstrated more attempts to climb the wall in the forced-swim test than their male counterparts). In conclusion, these results support the importance and prevalence of initiative to explore as a common factor in many stress tests; additionally, the principal component analysis indicated that physiological correlates of stress are more closely associated with more challenging environments and stimuli such as forced swimming, immunological challenges, and exposure to predator odors. 相似文献

The chronic stress state has previously been defined as persistent visceral arousal coupled with behavioral abnormalities. To determine the number of stressor exposures necessary to induce a chronic stress state, male rats were given 2 hours of inescapable shock on 10, 7, 4, or 3 consecutive days. The 3-day stress group had the most pervasive changes in the variables measured: persistently elevated basal plasma corticosterone (CORT), continued weight loss in the post-stressor period, and abnormal behavior. More exposures to the stress regimen did not produce higher CORT levels or greater behavioral changes. Acutely stressed rats, exposed to 1 day of inescapable shock, had persistent CORT elevations without the other changes seen in the 3-day stress group. The data suggest that 3 days of our stress regimen are sufficient to produce a state of chronic stress and that some signs of this state begin to appear as early as the first exposure to our inescapable stress regimen. 相似文献

目的:通过观察针刺对大负荷运动大鼠骨骼肌线粒体自噬相关蛋白表达的影响,探讨针刺在运动性骨骼肌损伤修复中的作用及其机制。方法:将128只成年雄性Sprague-Dawley大鼠随机分为4组:空白对照(control,C;n=8)组、单纯运动(exercise,E;n=40)组、单纯针刺(acupuncture,A;n=40)组和运动针刺(exercise and acupuncture,EA;n=40)组。其中,E和EA组进行1次下坡跑运动,A组和EA组(运动后即刻)施加针刺处理。后3组根据干预后不同时相又分为0 h、12 h、24 h、48 h和72 h亚组(n=8),分别于对应时点分离比目鱼肌进行检测,使用透射电子显微镜观察骨骼肌线粒体超微结构变化;采用ELISA法检测比目鱼肌线粒体定量酶柠檬酸合成酶(CS)的含量变化;应用Western blot法检测骨骼肌PTEN诱导假定激酶1(PINK1)、parkin和微管相关蛋白1轻链3(LC3)的蛋白表达变化。结果:1次大负荷运动后大鼠比目鱼肌线粒体出现明显肿胀和肌膜下积聚等超微结构异常变化,伴有大量自噬体形成;同时CS的含量明显减少(P0.05);线粒体自噬蛋白PINK1、parkin和LC3均出现一过性的表达升高(P0.05)。运动后针刺明显改善了线粒体超微结构的异常变化,减少自噬溶酶体的出现,同时抑制CS的含量减少,下调PINK1、parkin和LC3在线粒体上的表达(P0.05)。结论:1次大负荷运动后骨骼肌线粒体结构和数量受损,通过激活PINK1/parkin途径诱发线粒体自噬的过度发生。大负荷运动后针刺可以缓解骨骼肌线粒体的损伤,其作用机制可能是通过下调线粒体外膜蛋白PINK1表达,抑制其对下游胞浆蛋白parkin的招募,进而影响LC3与线粒体的结合以抑制线粒体自噬过度激活。 相似文献

Under aerobic work, the oxygen consumption and major ATP production occur in the mitochondria and it is therefore a relevant question whether the in vivo rates can be accounted for by mitochondrial capacities measured in vitro. Mitochondria were isolated from human quadriceps muscle biopsies in yields of approximately 45%. The tissue content of total creatine, mitochondrial protein and different cytochromes was estimated. A number of activities were measured in functional assays of the mitochondria: pyruvate, ketoglutarate, glutamate and succinate dehydrogenases, palmitoyl-carnitine respiration, cytochrome oxidase, the respiratory chain and the ATP synthesis. The activities involved in carbohydrate oxidation could account for in vivo oxygen uptakes of 15-16 mmol O2 min-1 kg-1 or slightly above the value measured at maximal work rates in the knee-extensor model of Saltin and co-workers, i.e. without limitation from the cardiac output. This probably indicates that the maximal oxygen consumption of the muscle is limited by the mitochondrial capacities. The in vitro activities of fatty acid oxidation corresponded to only 39% of those of carbohydrate oxidation. The maximal rate of free energy production from aerobic metabolism of glycogen was calculated from the mitochondrial activities and estimates of the DeltaG or ATP hydrolysis and the efficiency of the actin-myosin reaction. The resultant value was 20 W kg-1 or approximately 70% of the maximal in vivo work rates of which 10-20% probably are sustained by the anaerobic ATP production. The lack of aerobic in vitro ATP synthesis might reflect termination of some critical interplay between cytoplasm and mitochondria. 相似文献

Vertebrates respond to the onset of an acute stressor with an acute increase in plasma glucocorticoids. The increase in plasma glucocorticoids is believed to be adaptive, helping an animal cope until the stressful episode subsides. Although much is known about the effects of chronic elevation of glucocorticoids, far less is known about the role of acute increases in glucocorticoids in mediating stress responses. To better understand the regulation and function of acute increases in plasma glucocorticoids, we measured stress-induced increases in plasma corticosterone (CORT) and the effects of stressors and exogenous CORT on activity in male Allegheny dusky salamanders (Desmognathus ochrophaeus). Capture and handling of field-caught salamanders resulted in an acute elevation of plasma CORT during the nonmating season but not during the mating season. In laboratory-housed salamanders, a handling stressor that simulated capture resulted in decreased locomotor activity. Noninvasive elevation of plasma CORT via dermal patches did not replicate the handling-induced decrease in activity. Together, this work indicated that 1) the CORT response to the acute stressor of capture and handling was seasonally variable, 2) handling induced a decrease in locomotor activity in the laboratory, and 3) acute increases in plasma CORT did not contribute to stress-induced changes in locomotor activity. Future studies using noninvasive methods to elevate plasma CORT should illuminate the role of acute increases in plasma glucocorticoids in coordinating organismal responses to acute stressors. 相似文献

Doxorubicin causes a chronic cardiomyopathy. Although the exact pathogenesis is unknown, recent animal data suggest that somatically acquired alterations of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and concomitant mitochondrial dysfunction play an important role in its onset. In this study, skeletal and myocardial muscles were examined from human autopsies. Compared to controls (n = 8), doxorubicin-exposed hearts (n = 6) showed low absolute enzyme activity of mtDNA-encoded nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydrogen dehydrogenase (NADH DH, 79% residual activity, p = 0.03) and cytochrome c oxidase (COX, 59% residual activity, p < 0.001), but not of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), which is encoded exclusively by nuclear DNA. NADH DH/SDH and COX/SDH ratios were 37% (p < 0.001) and 27% (p < 0.001) of controls. Expression of the mtDNA-encoded subunit II of COX was reduced (82%, p = 0.04), compared to its unchanged nucleus-encoded subunit IV. MtDNA-content was diminished (56%, p = 0.02), but the 'common' mtDNA-deletion was increased (9.2-fold, p = 0.004). Doxorubicin-exposed hearts harboured numerous additional mtDNA rearrangements lacking direct repeats. They contained elevated levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) (p = 0.006, compared to controls), which correlated inversely with the COX/SDH ratio (r = -0.45, p = 0.02) and the mtDNA-content (r = -0.75, p = 0.002), and correlated positively with the levels of the 'common' deletion (r = 0.80, p < 0.001). Doxorubicin-exposed hearts also contained the highest levels of superoxide (p < 0.001, compared to controls), which correlated negatively with the mtDNA-encoded respiratory chain activities, such as the COX/SDH ratio (r = -0.57, p = 0.02) and the NADH/SDH ratio (r = -0.52, p = 0.04), as well as with the mtDNA content (r = -0.69, p = 0.003), and correlated positively with the frequency of the 'common' deletion (r = 0.76, p < 0.001) and the MDA levels (r = 0.86, p < 0.001). Doxorubicin-exposed hearts contained electron-dense deposits within mitochondria. Hearts exposed to other anthracyclines (n = 6) or skeletal muscle (all groups) had no mitochondrial dysfunction. Doxorubicin, unlike other anthracyclines, augments lipid peroxidation, induces mtDNA mutations and decreases mtDNA content in human hearts. These lesions have an impact on mitochondrial function and could be of importance in the pathogenesis of clinical cardiomyopathy. 相似文献

During the mating seasons (late summer and spring), male copperheads (Agkistrodon contortrix; Serpentes, Viperidae) engage in aggressive physical interactions for priority of access to females. These fights generally involve two individuals and are characterized by prominent vertical displays, a high degree of physical contact, and the absence of biting. Ritualized aggression does not occur in females. Although intrasexual aggression in conspecifics has obvious energetic costs (e.g., lactate accumulation) that can affect subsequent behavior, few studies have addressed these costs in reptiles, and no studies have examined snakes. Moreover, recent studies suggest psychoneuroendocrine (catecholamines, glucocorticoids) regulation of metabolism during and following aggressive episodes. There were three main questions addressed in this study. Do winners and losers of staged, pair-wise encounters show differences in post-fight (60-min) levels of plasma lactate and corticosterone (CORT)? Are levels of plasma lactate correlated with levels of plasma CORT? Is fight duration correlated with levels of plasma lactate and CORT? Two different control groups (cage and arena) were used. Body length, body mass, duration of fighting, and season of testing were not correlated with levels of plasma lactate and CORT. At 60-min post-fight, losers had significantly higher levels of mean plasma lactate and CORT when compared to levels in winners and controls, and there were no significant differences between winners and controls. From our results, we suggest the following conclusions. First, elevated levels of CORT in losers, but not winners, result from psychoneuroendocrine factors rather than simple exercise. Second, elevated levels of CORT in losers retard metabolic recovery resulting in higher lactate levels in losers, whereas winners return to pre-fight levels within 60-min post-fight. Last, the CORT response has a net negative effect on metabolic recovery and may be implicated in the protracted suppression of aggressive behavior in losers. 相似文献
