采用扫描电镜观察了不同碱度(0、2、4 g/L Na HCO_3)胁迫对尼罗罗非鱼(Oreochromis niloticus)鳃离子细胞形态变化的影响,并采用免疫组化技术观察了鳃、肾、肠中4个HCO_3^-转运因子碳酸酐酶(CAⅡ、CAⅣ)、碳酸氢钠协同转运载体(SLC4A4)...采用扫描电镜观察了不同碱度(0、2、4 g/L Na HCO_3)胁迫对尼罗罗非鱼(Oreochromis niloticus)鳃离子细胞形态变化的影响,并采用免疫组化技术观察了鳃、肾、肠中4个HCO_3^-转运因子碳酸酐酶(CAⅡ、CAⅣ)、碳酸氢钠协同转运载体(SLC4A4)、Cl^-/HCO_3^-离子交换体(SLC26A6)的阳性反应变化。扫描电镜结果表明,鳃离子细胞分布在鳃小片基部。根据其表面开孔形状和尺寸,可分为Ⅰ型、Ⅱ型、Ⅲ型和Ⅳ型4种亚型,各亚型离子细胞的开孔尺寸随碱度胁迫强度增高呈正比增大,Ⅲ型离子细胞开孔尺寸变化最明显(P<0.01);离子细胞总数目也随碱度升高而增加,Ⅲ型离子细胞数目上升最为显著(P<0.01)。免疫组化结果表明,在淡水、碱水组中,CAⅡ、CAⅣ、SLC4A4、SLC26A6在鳃小片基部和肾中均有阳性反应,且随着碱度升高,阳性反应增强,但在肠道中未观察到阳性反应。本研究结果初步表明,尼罗罗非鱼可通过鳃离子细胞形态和数量调节适应碱度变化,鳃和肾为主要应答调节器官。展开更多

RESULTS Loss of NBCe1 in cardiac myocytes did not impair cardiac contractility or relaxation under basal conditions or in response toβ-adrenergic stimulation,and caused only limited changes in gene expression patterns,such as those for electrical excitability.However,following ischemia and reperfusion,KO heart sections exhibited significantly fewer apoptotic nuclei than WT sections.CONCLUSION These studies indicate that cardiac-specific loss of NBCe1 does not impair cardiovascular performance,causes only minimal changes in gene expression patterns,and protects against IR injury in vivo.展开更多
