The associations of the SNPs with the total egg production （NE）, average days of continual laying （ADCL）, and number of double-yolked eggs （DYE） traits were analyzed. The frequency of restriction enzyme A/a alleles in the population was for GnRHR 0.69 （Bpu1102 Ⅰ A） and 0.31 （Bpu1102 Ⅰ a） and for NPY 0.46 （Dra Ⅰ B） and 0.54 （Dra Ⅰ b）. Trait data from a total of 120 hens, which were purebred introduced from Hainan Province, China from one generation were recorded. Two significant effects of genes＇ marker were found： for GnRHR and number of eggs （dominant; t= 2.67, df= 116） and NPY and number of eggs （additive; t= 1.97, df= 116）. The current research supports the effects of GnRHR and NPY genes on egg-laying traits of chickens.展开更多

[ Method] GnRH in pituitary were immunohistochemically stained by avidin biotin complex method. The GnRH expression was analyzed with image system. The GnRH receptor gene was amplified by real-time PCR. [ Result] Many GnRH positive cells were detected in pars distalis of adenohypophysis. GnRH were distributed in cytoplasm but not in nuclei. No positive sig- nal was observed in neurohypophysis. In addition, the GnRH receptor gene, 920 bp in size, was amplified. [ Conclusion] A large number of GnRH and GnRH receptor were found in pars distalis of adenohypophysis, which indicates that anterior pituitary is an important tissue for functions of hypo- thalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis and other endocrine axes.展开更多

文摘【目的】研究连翘叶提取物(Forsythia suspensa leaves extract,FSLE)对孕马血清促性腺激素(pregnant mare serum gonadotropin,PMSG)在肝脏中代谢的影响,改善在畜牧生产中因PMSG代谢缓慢而造成的氧化应激。【方法】采用半仿生酶醇法提取连翘叶有效成分,给予昆明雌鼠不同含量的FSLE进行动物体内试验;收集小鼠血清,进行酶联免疫吸附试验,检测各组小鼠血清中PMSG的质量浓度;采集小鼠肝脏组织,检测氧化应激指标谷胱甘肽、超氧化物歧化酶、丙二醛和过氧化氢的水平;采用Western-blot检测小鼠肝脏组织孕烷X受体(pregnane X receptor,PXR)和细胞色素酶P45017A1(cytochrome P45017A1,CYP17A1)蛋白的表达水平。【结果】FSLE可显著降低小鼠血清中PMSG的质量浓度,且可以减缓PMSG代谢引起的氧化应激。Western-blot结果显示:FSLE可显著下调小鼠肝组织中PXR和CYP17A1蛋白的表达。【结论】连翘叶提取物可能是通过下调肝脏中PXR和CYP17A1的表达减缓PMSG代谢引起的氧化应激。
