Experimental results showed that the hair root, hair tip, outer sheath, inner sheath, hair follicle group, fi- brous sheath, outer epidermis, inner epidermis, sebaceous gland and other organiza- tional structures of hair follicles of Hezuo swine can be clearly observed. The hair follicle pore size varied extremely significantly （P〈0.01） among different parts, showing a downward trend of shoulder 〈 body side 〈 buttocks; the hair follicle density ranged from 5.59 to 7.26 hair follicles/mm^2. This study provides reference for the in-dustrial and medical applications.展开更多

Mi- crotubular layers already formed at the sites beneath the dorsal cortical pellicle corresponding to vegetative cells,but they still proceed to be organized on the ventral struc-tures. Cristae, highly-tangled with tubular-type struc-tures, appeared on the mitochondria, and were morpho-logically similar to that of vegetative cells. In the cor-tical ciliatures, such as ciliary shafts, kinetosomes, sur-rounding fibrillar cirral baskets, and attached structures of ciliatures, etc., they are different from those in rest- ing cysts which are degenerated or lost. All the cilia- ture microtubules of ciliary shafts are of the 9+2 pattern,but the microtubule-like structure aggregates at triplet - microtubule centers of many kinetosmes, are still under various stages of differentiation. Microtubules beneath the kinetosomal rows are of a developmentally elongated stage; crowded chromatins of various shapes and sizes are found in macronucleus, but there are no nuclear pores (formed by nuclear membrane as in resting cysts) on the nuclear membrane where these chromatins attached.展开更多

In this research, we explored the effect of DADAG on angiogenesis in chick chorioallantoic membrane （CAM） model and on the proliferation and migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells （HUVECs）. We also studied the possible mechanism of the anti-angiogenesis effect of DADAG. The results showed that DADAG （100, 500 and 1000μnol/L） inhibited angiogenesis in CAM model dose-dependently. Sulforhodamine B （SRB） assay indicated that DADAG （45, 90, 135, 180 and 225 μmol/L） suppressed HUVECs proliferation in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner. High Content Screening （HCS, Cellomics） assay, in which the influence of cell proliferation on migration could be excluded, indicated that DADAG （45, 135 and 225 ~xmol/L） directly inhibited the motility ofHUVECs. Immunofiuorescence assay suggested that DADAG inhibited angiogenesis possibly by decreasing vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） expression in HUVECs. Our findings reveal that DADAG show anti-angiogenic activity in vivo and in vitro, which is related to the downregulation of VEGF expression in endothelial cells.展开更多

文摘The characteristics of skin hair follicle structure of Hezuo swine were in- vestigated using frozen section method and HE staining. Experimental results showed that the hair root, hair tip, outer sheath, inner sheath, hair follicle group, fi- brous sheath, outer epidermis, inner epidermis, sebaceous gland and other organiza- tional structures of hair follicles of Hezuo swine can be clearly observed. The hair follicle pore size varied extremely significantly （P〈0.01） among different parts, showing a downward trend of shoulder 〈 body side 〈 buttocks; the hair follicle density ranged from 5.59 to 7.26 hair follicles/mm^2. This study provides reference for the in-dustrial and medical applications.
