The effects of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation on the fer- tilizing sperm were also examined. Both normal and UV-irradiated sperm nuclei enlarged at three distinct phases (phase A, meta- phase I; phase B, polar body formation; and phase C, female pronuclear development and expansion) that were temporally correlated with meiotic process of the maternal chromosomes. Sperm nuclei underwent a rapid, initial enlargement during phase A, but con- densed slightly during phase B, then re-enlarged during phase C. The effects of UV irradiation were not apparent during transforma- tion of the sperm nucleus into a male pronucleus, and there was not any apparent effect on meiotic maturation and development of the female pronucleus. However, the rate of expansion of the UV-irradiated sperm nuclei and the size of male pronuclei were reduced apparently. Unlike the female pronucleus, the male pronucleus derived from sperm genome inactivated by UV irradiation did not form chromosomes, but became a dense chromatin body (DCB). At mitotic anaphase, DCB did not participate in the karyokinesis of the first cleavage as evidenced by chromosomal nondisjunction, demonstrating the effectiveness of using UV irradiation to induce gynogenetic scallop embryos.展开更多
文摘目的探讨原发性干燥综合征(primary Sj gren syndrome,pSS)患者唾液胱抑素D水平与唾液腺损伤的相关性。方法纳入2022年9月1日至2023年6月30日就诊于西安交通大学第一附属医院风湿免疫科pSS组患者51例及年龄、性别匹配的来院健康体检对照组人员51例。检测唾液中胱抑素D水平,采用独立样本t检验评估两组胱抑素D水平的差异,采用Pearson相关性检验评估pSS组胱抑素D与临床指标的关系。结果pSS组唾液中胱抑素D水平明显低于对照组(206.55±108.11 vs 374.32±172.24 pg/mL,P<0.01)。pSS患者胱抑素D水平与其静态唾液流率(r=0.433,P=0.002)及动态唾液流率(r=0.363,P=0.009)呈正相关。高唾液腺超声检查评分的pSS患者唾液胱抑素D水平明显低于低评分患者(腮腺:160.75±85.56 vs 290.53±95.17 pg/mL,P<0.01;颌下腺:157.76±87.59 vs 276.25±97.06 pg/mL,P<0.01)。pSS患者胱抑素D水平与外周血IL-6水平(r=-0.453,P=0.001)及CD4+T细胞计数(r=-0.396,P=0.005)呈负相关。结论pSS患者唾液胱抑素D水平可作为反映唾液腺损伤的指标。

文摘目的:探讨感染后肠易激综合征(PI-IBS)小鼠肠道菌群与血清代谢物的变化,分析其对内脏敏感性的影响。方法:采用旋毛虫感染法制备PI-IBS模型,利用16S rDNA测序分析PI-IBS小鼠和正常小鼠肠道微生物变化;血清代谢组学分析血清代谢物变化;Spearman法对2组的差异代谢物和差异菌群进行关联分析。结果:16S rDNA测序结果显示mouse gut metagenome和g_Alistipes可能是PI-IBS小鼠的关键肠道微生物。代谢组学分析共筛选出22种组间差异代谢物,涉及16条代谢通路,主要包括氨基酸的生物合成、半胱氨酸和蛋氨酸代谢、精氨酸生物合成、突触囊泡循环等通路。结论:肠道菌群和血清代谢物改变参与PI-IBS内脏高敏感性的产生。
