Full textThe effect of high carbohydrate and fat meals on the insulin sensitivity was evaluated. Furthermore, it was investigated the content of GLUT4 protein on the skeletal muscle and white adipose tissue. Rats were refed for 1, 2, 4 and 6 hours with: balanced meal (B); high carbohydrate meal (C) and high fat meal (L). The glucose/insulin index shows that C and L meals exhibited insulin resistance after 2 hours of ingestion. In the insulin tolerance test, a reduction (~47%) in the insulin sensitivity was observed in C group after 2 and 4 hours of refeeding. The glucose tolerance test confirmed the insulin resistance in C and L-groups after 2 hours of ingestion and such phenomena did not involve alterations in the GLUT4 content on both skeletal muscle or white adipose tissue.

Full textThe results showed that the responses did not always correspond to task requirements. There was a general tendency to focus on specific details that the subjects understood at the expense of the global aspect of the question. There was a greater variation in performance within groups than between groups. The results also suggest that undergraduate education may have less influence on the performance in certification examination than residency training. The importance of developing examination questions with high construct and criterion validity is discussed.

Resumo: Nos peixes teleósteos, a unidade morfofuncional da espermatogênese é o espenrmatocisto ou cisto, constituído por células germinativas, em desenvolvimento sincrônico, envoltas perifericamente pelas células de Sertoli. Em função da cinética da espermatogênese e do tipo de reprodução (contínua ou sazonal), o epitélio germinativo pode se desenvolver de forma constante ou sofrer modificações cíclicas durante o ciclo reprodutivo. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo analisar, através de parâmetros histológicos, ultra-estruturais e imuno-histoquímicos, as alterações do epitélio germinativo em duas espécies de ciclos reprodutivos diferentes (Serrasalmus spilopleura - reprodução contínua e Pimelodus maculatus - reprodução sazonal) e correlacioná-las com as células esteroidogênicas e as células gonadotrópicas, no intuito de melhor compreender a fisiologia reprodutiva dos teleósteos tropicais de água doce. Em S. spilopleura, o epitélio germinativo organiza-se em cistos basais de espermatogônias e cistos apicais de células germinativas em desenvolvimento mais avançado. As espermatogônias basais apresentam intensa atividade proliferativa durante todo o ciclo reprodutivo. As células de Sertoli proliferam no intuito de acompanhar o crescimento dos cistos e aumentar o tamanho do testículo a cada ciclo reprodutivo. Quanto à esteroidogênese, a atividade 3"beta"-HSD é maior na região espermatogênica do que na região relacionada à espermiação. Em relação às células gonadotrópicas, as células LH são requeridas durante a espermatogênese e na espermiação, enquanto que as células FSH são mais ativas na liberação dos espermatozóides e provavelmente na proliferação das células sle Sertoli. Em P. maculatus, o epitélio germinativo passa por modificações morfofuncionais, categorizadas em quatro classes reprodutivas: regredida, maturação, maturação final e regressão. A proliferação das espermatogônias é intensa durante a maturação e depois diminui na maturação final e regressão. As células de Sertoli proliferam em maior freqüência na classe regredida, o que contribui para o crescimento do testículo durante o ciclo reprodutivo. A atividade 3"beta"-HSD é intensa na maturação e na maturação final, e depois diminui na regressão e na classe regredida. Os processos de espermatogênese e liberação de espermatozóides são dependentes de andrógenos. As células LH e FSH estão em maior quantidade durante a maturação e a maturação final, e depois diminuem na regressão e na classe regredida. A espermatogênese e a liberação dos espermatozóides são mais dependentes da atividade gonadotrópica do que os processos de proliferação espermatogonial e regressão testicular
Abstract: In teleost fish, the morphofuncional unit of the spermatogenesis is the spermatocyst or cyst, which are constituded by synchronous developmental germ cells surrounded by Sertoli cells. Depending on the spermatogenesis kinetics and the type of reproduction (continuous/non-seazonal or seazonal), the germinal epithelium may be constant or undego cyclical changes during the reproductive cyc1e. The aim, of the present work is to analyze, through histological, ultrastructural and immunohistochemical evaluation, the changes of the germinal epithelium in two different reproductive cycles (Serrasalmus spilopleura continuous/non-seazonal reproduction and Pimelodus maculatus - seazonal reproduction) and to correlate them with steroidogenic cells and gonadotropic cells, for a better knowledge on the reproductive physiology of the tropical fresh water teleosts. In S. spilopleura, the germinal epithelium was organized in basal cysts of spermatogonia and apical cysts of more advanced developmental germ cells. The basal spermatogonia had intense proliferative activity during the whole reproductive cycle. Sertoli cells proliferation occured in order to accompany the cyst growth and to increase the testis size during each reproductive cycle. For steroidogenic activity, 3"beta"-HSD was stronger in the spermatogenic area than in the area related to spermiation. In re1ation to gonadotropic cells, LH cells were requ~sted during spermatogenesis and spermiation, whereas FSH cells were more active in spermatozoa liberation and probably in the Sertoli celI proliferation. In P. maculatus, the germinal epithelium undergoes morphological changes, classified in 4 reproductive classes: regressed, maturation, final maturation and regression. The spermatogonial prolif~ration was intense during maturation and decreased in final maturation and regression. Sertoli cells proliferated more in regressed class, contributing to testis growth during the reproductive cycle. The 3"beta"-HSD activity was strong in maturation and final maturation, and decreased in regression and in regressed class. Then, spermatogenesis processes and spermatozoa release are dependent of androgenic. LH and FSH cells were in large number during maturation and final maturation, and decreased in regression and in regressed class. In P. maculatus, spermatogenesis and spermatozoa release are more dependent of the gonadotropic activity than the processes such as spermatogonial proliferation and testicular regression

Full textGLUT4 (gene Slc2a4) is responsible by insulin-induced glucose uptake and alterations in its expression are related to insulin resistance (IR). Variability in estradiol levels (E2) is related with IR and lower glucose transporter expression and this mechanism can be mediated by transcriptional factor NFk-B, which is an Slc2a4 repressor. Our aim was to evaluate in 3T3-L1 adipocytes the role of E2 in Slc2a4/GLUT4 expression, NFk-B binding activity and glucose uptake as well as the ESR1 (estrogen receptor 1) role in this regulation. For this, 3T3-L1 cells were treated for 1 day with E2 and PPT (ESR1-agonist). PPT enhanced Slc2a4/GLUT4 expression in the absence or presence of E2 as well as the glucose uptake and decreased NFk-B binding activity. Our results show that E2 increases Slc2a4/GLUT4 expression via ESR1 and this effect is partially mediated by NFk-B, and allow parallel changes in glucose uptake.

Insect metamorphosis is driven by two major hormones, juvenile hormone (JH) and ecdysone (Ec). The presence of JH with an Ec peak in each stadium results in larval-larval molting whereas in the last larval instar a decline of JH to undetectable level combined with pulses of Ec leads to larval-pupal metamorphosis. Larval-pupal metamorphosis normally occurs after a certain number of larval instar and upon reaching a certain size (critical weight). However, in the flour beetle, Tribolium freemani, under crowded conditions larva continue larval-larval molting (LLC) without pupation for longer than 14 instars (6 months). Previous studies have implicated high JH titer as preventing the metamorphosis leading to supernumerary molts. My investigation of JH roles in LLC started by asking whether suppression of JH would rescue the LLC phenotype and allow pupal metamorphosis. Using RNA interference (RNAi), I found that under crowded conditions RNAi of T. freemani methyltransferase3 (TfMT3), which encodes a crucial enzyme for the final methylation step in the JH biosynthesis, or RNAi of T. freemani Krüppel homolog1 (TfKr-h1), the JH downstream gene, did not rescue the larvae but resulted in prepupal lethality. Surprisingly, under crowded conditions prepupal lethality was rescued by RNAi of both TfMT3 and TfKr-h1 administered together, although developmental arrest occurred at the pharate adult stage; this is also the phenotype of TfKr-h1 RNAi-treated larvae under isolated conditions. In investigations of the role of Ec titer in LLC, lethality of the larvae with RNAi of TfMT3 under crowded conditions was associated with the loss of the major ecdysteroid peak, while TfKr-h1 RNAi-treated larvae under crowded conditions showed a delayed, but normal, Ec peak occurring at prepupal arrest. The pattern of Ec peak in RNAi of both TfMT3 and TfKr-h1 together was similar to that with TfKr-h1 RNAi alone. I suggest that a hormonal imbalance, high JH and high Ec in the prepupal arrest of TfKr-h1 RNAi, was rescued by RNAi of both TfMT3 and TfKr-h1 for low JH and high Ec. These results demonstrate that the signaling pathways for LLC are through at least two independent pathways; JH biosynthesis and TfKr-h1-mediated JH response.

Full textThe reproductive endocrinology of the southern muriqui (Brachyteles. Arachnoids) was evaluated through the dosage of fecal metabolites steroids for 04 adult females and fecal metabolites of testosterone and glucocorticoids for 04 adult males and 01 subadult male. The study was conducted over an eleven month period at two environmental conditions: a) an island of 600 m2, with natural vegetation, at Curitiba Zoo (PPC) and b) a large cage of 15,40X5,85X4,70m at Rio de Janeiro Primatological Centre (CPRJ). It was observed that females had large strogen interindividual variation and fecal progestins: three females did not show ovarian activity over a partial period of the study, while ovarian activity was observed for all sample periods for one female. Despite the detection of low levels of steroids, proceptive behaviour and copulations were observed. The PPC males showed significant levels of glicorticoids and testosteorne when compared to the CPRJ males (p<0.05). The subadult male exhibited the lowest level of testosterone metabolites and those differences were significant when compared to the adult males (p<0.05). For all males, copulations occurred when testosterone levels were highest and peaks of glucorticoids were linked to stressfull situations. This study have shown that the method used was effective for reproductive monitoring as well as for evaluating stressfull situations.

Full textIn my thesis I investigated whether loss of growth hormone receptor (GHR) signaling affects post-natal skeletal muscle development and regenerative ability in adult male mice, and whether the effect is via insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) signaling. Mouse models were used that had a post-natal muscle-specific loss of GHR signaling (mGHRKO), insulin-like growth factor receptor/ insulin receptor (IGF-1R/IR) signaling (MKR ), and loss of both GHR and IGF-1R/IR signaling (mGHRKO/MKR). The loss of GHR signaling did not alter muscle igf-1 expression, fiber cross sectional area, fiber type proportions, or regenerative fusion ability. Further more, loss of IGF-1R/IR signaling decreased regenerative ability. In conclusion, my data suggests that GHR signaling does not play a role in post-natal skeletal muscle development or regenerative fusion ability, and that IGF-1R/IR signaling has an effect that is independent of direct GH effects on muscle, though may be affected by systemic GH/IGF-1 function.

Full textInfusion of 17β-estradiol into the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (ARH) 47.5 hours after estrogen benzoate (EB) priming rapidly facilitates sexual receptivity (lordosis) via G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER) that deactivates µ-opioid receptors (MOP) in the medial pre-optic nucleus of the hypothalamus (MPN). Initial estradiol inhibits lordosis via activating an ARH neurocircuit that activates MPN MOP, and simultaneously upregulates orphanin FQ/ nociception (OFQ/N), its cognate receptor (ORL-1), and progesterone receptor (PR) in the ARH. Subsequent ORL-1 activation 48 hours post-EB deactivates MPN MOP to facilitate lordosis. Thus, I hypothesized that GPER directly regulates OFQ/N neurons and tested whether EB increased coexpression of GPER and OFQ/N in ARH neurons. EB significantly increased the number of GPER OFQ/N expressing neurons. Antiestrogens, tamoxifen (TAM) and ICI 182,780 (ICI), are treatments for some estrogen responsive tumors, but sometimes exacerbate tumor proliferation via GPER. I hypothesized that TAM and ICI activate ARH GPER and facilitate lordosis via deactivation of MPN MOP. In EB-primed rats, ARH infusion of either TAM or ICI facilitated lordosis and deactivated MPN MOP. GPER antagonist, G15, blocked these results. Thus, TAM and ICI rapidly activate ARH GPER neurons that express OFQ/N to facilitate sexual receptivity.

Full textAnthropogenic contaminants have been well documented in Southern California coastal marine waters and are largely associated with point source pollution entities like waste water treatment plants (WWTPs). This study measured known and suspected contaminants capable of disrupting physiological and endocrine functions in marine organisms. Thyroid endocrine and hepatic contaminant concentrations were measured in English Sole (Parophrys vetulus) and Hornyhead Turbot (Pleuronichthys verticalis) residing at a WWTP outfall location and two other locations, up- and down-current from the outfall. Fish from the outfall and down current locations had higher levels of contaminant compounds and altered thyroid endocrine physiology compared to the up-current reference location. Selected contaminants were significantly correlated with thyroid endocrine parameters, consistent with observed differences in contaminant levels among sites.

Full textThe golden lancehead pitviper (Bothrops insularis) is a critically endangered snake, endemic of the Queimada Grande Island, southeastern Brazil. With its declining population, a captive breeding program was established, but the knowledge of its reproductive biology is incipient. By the time this species is considered as seasonal, with spermatogenesis period and matting associated, occurring from autumn until early spring, but there are no studies about their reproductive endocrinology. The aim of this study was to validate a noninvasively hormonal evaluation method through feces and carry out the monitoring of androgens in conjunction with plasma testosterone evaluation. Over 36 months 156 stool samples and 30 blood samples were collected from eight captive males. The fecal androgen concentrations ranged from 10.9 to 249.3 ng / g of feces and the plasma testosterone concentrations ranged from 0.07 to 0.30 ng / mL of plasma. There was no significant difference between the concentrations of fecal androgens and plasma throughout the year, although the males had shown successfully reproductive behavior during this period. The data corroborate whith other studies of sperm storage, sperm quality and gonadal volume, but disagreeded of the results of testicular histology. We discuss the possibility of the species be assazonal or these results are a consequence of the captivity conditions. This study contributes to the validation of a new longitudinal evaluation method of sex steroids in B. insularis, with the knowledge of the reproductive biology of tropical snakes and the conservation of endangered animals
