Pre-weaned porcine islets (PPIs) represent an unlimited source for islet transplantation but are functionally immature. We previously showed that necrostatin-1 (Nec-1) immediately after islet isolation enhanced the in vitro development of PPIs. Here, we examined the impact of Nec-1 on the in vivo function of PPIs after transplantation in diabetic mice. PPIs were isolated from pancreata of 8–15-day-old, pre-weaned pigs and cultured in media alone, or supplemented with Nec-1 (100 µM) on day 0 or on day 3 of culture (n = 5 for each group). On day 7, islet recovery, viability, oxygen consumption rate, insulin content, cellular composition, insulin secretion capacity, and transplant outcomes were evaluated. While islet viability and oxygen consumption rate remained high throughout 7-day tissue culture, Nec-1 supplementation on day 3 significantly improved islet recovery, insulin content, endocrine composition, GLUT2 expression, differentiation potential, proliferation capacity of endocrine cells, and insulin secretion. Adding Nec-1 on day 3 of tissue culture enhanced the islet recovery, proportion of delta cells, beta-cell differentiation and proliferation, and stimulation index. In vivo, this leads to shorter times to normoglycemia, better glycemic control, and higher circulating insulin. Our findings identify the novel time-dependent effects of Nec-1 supplementation on porcine islet quantity and quality prior to transplantation.

To study the role of nitric oxide (NO) in regulating oxygen consumption by vessel walls, the oxygen consumption rate of arteriolar walls in rat cremaster muscle was measured in vivo during flow-induced vasodilation and after inhibiting NO synthesis. The oxygen consumption rate of arteriolar walls was calculated based on the intra- and perivascular Po2 values measured by phosphorescence quenching laser microscopy. The perivascular Po2 value of the arterioles during vasodilation was significantly higher than under control conditions, although the intravascular Po2 values under both conditions were approximately the same. Inhibition of NO synthesis, on the other hand, caused a significant increase in arterial blood pressure and a significant decrease in arteriolar diameter. Inhibition of NO synthesis also caused a significant decrease in both the intra- and perivascular Po2 values of the arterioles. Inhibition of NO synthesis increased the oxygen consumption rate of the vessel walls by 42%, whereas enhancement of flow-induced NO release decreased it by 34%. These results suggest that NO plays an important role not only as a regulator of peripheral vascular tone but also as a modulator of tissue oxygenation by reducing oxygen consumption by vessel walls. In addition, enhancement of NO release during exercise may facilitate efficient oxygen supply to the surrounding high metabolic tissue.

Abstract Background and aims Renal fibrosis is the common outcome in all progressive forms of chronic kidney disease. Unfortunately, the pathogenesis of renal fibrosis remains largely unexplored, among which metabolic reprogramming plays an extremely crucial role in the evolution of renal fibrosis. Ceria nanoparticles (CeNP-PEG) with strong ROS scavenging and anti-inflammatory activities have been applied for mitochondrial oxidative stress and inflammatory diseases. The present study aims to determine whether CeNP-PEG has therapeutic value for renal fibrosis. Methods The unilateral ureteral obstructive fibrosis model was used to assess the therapeutic effects in vivo. Transforming growth factor beta1-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in HK-2 cells was used as the in vitro cell model. The seahorse bioscience X96 extracellular flux analyzer was used to measure the oxygen consumption rate and extracellular acidification rate. Results In the present study, CeNP-PEG treatment significantly ameliorated renal fibrosis by increased E-cadherin protein expression, and decreased α-SMA, Vimentin and Fibronectin expression both in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, CeNP-PEG significantly reduced the ROS formation and improved the levels of mitochondrial ATP. The seahorse analyzer assay demonstrated that the extracellular acidification rate markedly decreased, whereas the oxygen consumption rate markedly increased, in the presence of CeNP-PEG. Furthermore, the mitochondrial membrane potential markedly enhanced, hexokinase 1 and hexokinase 2 expression significantly decreased after treatment with CeNP-PEG. Conclusions CeNP-PEG can block the dysregulated metabolic status and exert protective function on renal fibrosis. This may provide another therapeutic option for renal fibrosis. Graphical Abstract

Contractile and metabolic activities of the isolated heart of Panulirus japonicus were recorded while thermal and hormonal stimuli were applied for 3–6 min. The heart beat was often augmented in amplitude with a fall in temperature from 20° to 17–15°C. With the augmented beat, a decrease of pO2 in the ventricle indicated an increase in oxygen consumption rate of the heart. When serotonin (0.1 µM) and the cold stimulation were applied at the same time, pO2 in the ventricle decreased, suggesting that the metabolic rate of the heart markedly rose. In contrast, octopamine (1 µM) raised the oxygen consumption rate of the heart only slightly. Octopamine greatly enhanced the membrane excitability and contraction force of the heart during cold treatment. A transient period of cooling in vivo may cause the pericardial organs to release octopamine and serotonin in P. japonicus. This may be relevant to the care of spiny lobsters during mariculture, capture, handling and transport.

The relationship between oxygen consumption rate (milligrams per kilogram per hour) and sustained swimming speed (calculated from tailbeat frequency) was determined for 1.2-g juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) at 15 °C. The data are best described by the following equation: log oxygen consumption rate = 2.2 + 0.13 (body lengths-s−1). This relationship is very similar to that extrapolated for sockeye salmon (O. nerka) of the same size, thus potentially enabling researchers to utilize the extensive sockeye data base to predict metabolic rates of coho. The oxygen consumption rate during burst swimming (9 body lengths∙s−1) was also determined. The burst swimming metabolic rate (38 000 mgO2∙kg−1∙h−1) is nearly 40 times greater than the maximum sustained swimming metabolic rate.

<p><strong><em>Abstract.</em></strong><em> The aims of the study were: (1) to test oxygen consumption of Anadara granosa under sub-lethal concentrations of endosulfan, (2) oxygen consumption under sub-lethal concentrations of glifosat and (3) oxygen consumption under mixture of endosulfan and glifosat. </em><em>Complete randomlizeddesign were applied on this experiment.</em><em> Initially, the oxygen consumption was standardised against animal’s dry flesh weight. Results showed that dry flesh weight afffected significantly the oxygen consumption.  The relationship between the two variables was formulated as  y = 0</em><em>.</em><em>217 + 0</em><em>.</em><em>243x.  Based on teh relationship, the oxygen consumption was reported as mg/l/hr of 1g standard animal.  Exposure of blood cockles to various sub-lethal concentrations of pesticides showed that the oxygen consumption rates reduced as the concentrations increased.  For endosulfan, the oxygen consumption rate decreased from </em><em>(</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>5325 ±</em><em> 0.1556)</em><em>mg/l/hr at 0</em><em>.</em><em>05 ppm to </em><em>(</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>2282 ±</em><em> 0.1552 ) </em><em>mg/l/hr at 0</em><em>.</em><em>5 ppm.  Increasing glifosat from 50 ppm to 200 ppm reduced the oxygen consumption from </em><em>(</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>3111±</em><em> 0.1811)</em><em>to </em><em>(</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>2449 ±</em><em> 0.2548)</em><em>mg/l/hr.</em><em> </em><em>Accordingly, the oxygen consumption decreased from </em><em>(</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>3376±</em><em> 0.972)</em><em>mg/l/hr to </em><em>(</em><em>0,2841±</em><em> 0.2057)</em><em>mg/l/hr</em><em> </em><em>when concentrations of mixture endosulfan + glifosat mixture increased from 0</em><em>.</em><em>005 + 50 ppm to 5 + 200 ppm.</em></p><p><strong><em>Keywords:</em></strong><em> pesticide</em><em>; </em><em>endosulfan</em><em>;</em><em> glyphosate</em><em>;</em><em> Anadara granosa</em><em>;</em><em> bioassay</em><em>;</em><em> oxygen consumption</em></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>Abstrak.</strong><strong> </strong>Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh konsentrasi sublethal endosulfan, glifosat, dan secara bersama-sama terhadap konsumsi oksigen kerang darah (<em>Anadara granosa</em>). Metode eksperimental dengan rancangan percobaan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) diterapkan dalam penelitian ini. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa berat tubuh mempengaruhi laju konsumsi oksigen dengan hubungan <em>y = 0,217+0,243 x</em>, sehingga hasil pengukuran laju konsumsi oksigen dinyatakan sebagai mg/l/jam per 1 gram berat kering kerang standar. Pemaparan terhadap konsentrasi sublethal menunjukkan bahwa laju konsumsi oksigen menurun seiring dengan meningkatnya konsentrasi masing – masing pestisida maupun campurannya.  Untuk endosulfan, laju konsumsi oksigen menurun dari (0,5325± 0,1556) mg/l/jam pada 0,05 ppm menjadi (0,2282 ± 0,1552) mg/l/jam pada 5 ppm.  Untuk glifosat, laju konsumsi oksigen menurun dari (0,3111± 0,1811) mg/l/jam pada 50 ppm menjadi (0,2449 ± 0,2548) pada 200 ppm, sedangkan untuk campuran endosulfan + glifosat, laju konsumsi oksigen menurun dari (0,3376± 0,972)  mg/l/jam pada 0,005 + 50 ppm menjadi (0,2841± 0,2057) mg/l/jam pada 5 + 200 ppm.  Kisaran konsentrasi sublethal ini sangat mempengaruhi konsumsi oksigen kerang darah (<em>Anadara granosa</em>) yaitu laju konsumsi oksigen akan menurun jika konsentrasi endosulfan dan glifosat ditingkatkan. </p><strong><em>Kata kunci</em></strong><em>: pestisida; endosulfan; glifosat; Anadara granosa; bioassay; konsumsi oksigen</em>
