The effect of LHRHa with and without dopamine antagonist on reproductive performance in lambari Astyanax altiparanae

ЖАРКОВА И.П., ГРИШИНА Д. С. Федеральный научный центр «Всероссийский научно-исследовательский и технологический институт птицеводства» Российской академии наук Аннотация: Авторами изучены генетические параметры хозяйственно-полезных признаков гусей (сохранность, яйценоскость, масса яиц, оплодотворенность и выводимость яиц, вывод гусят) в зависимости от их происхождения. Новизна работы заключается в том, что впервые проведен анализ закономерностей проявления репродуктивных качеств у родственных групп гусей. При сравнительном изучении 21 породы гусей установлено, что группа пород гусей, родственных между собой по общему селекционному предку, а именно китайской серой породе (1-я родословная), имеет более высокие воспроизводительные способности по сравнению с другими породами и группами пород. Полученные данные будут применяться в дальнейшей работе с целью совершенствования приемов сохранения генофонда малочисленных пород гусей.

Intermittent Lighting Improves the Efficiency of Artificial Insemination in Cage Housed Laying Hens Kavtarashvili A.Sh., Kolokolnikova T.N. Federal Scientific Center “All-Russian Research and Technological Poultry Institute” of Russian Academy of Sciences Omsk Agrarian Scientific Center Summary: The effects of different lighting regimes on the oviposition schedule, productive performance, and reproductive efficiency in cage housed laying hens of layer parental flock (Hisex White-R) were studied; the reasonable regime of artificial insemination (AI) under intermittent lighting is proposed. It was found that intermittent lighting regime 1L:4D:4L:1D:4L:10D compared to the constant lighting significantly alters oviposition schedule: under this regime 82.3% of all daily eggs were laid until 9 am (vs. 66.6% in control). This regime and AI at 10 am improved the productive and reproductive performance compared to control (constant lighting 16L:8D and AI at 12 am): mortality by 1.9%, egg production per initial hen by 3.8%, egg weight by 1.1%, percentage of eggs suitable for incubation by 1.9%, egg fertility by 0.9%, hatchability by 2.3%, hatch of chicks by 2.9%, feed conversion ratio (kg of feed per 10 eggs) by 5.3%, the expenses of electric energy for lighting (per 1000 eggs suitable for incubation) by 54.5%.

ABSTRACT Mature female hamsters bearing subcutaneous polyacrylamide (PAA) implants, with ethinyloestradiol (EO), for at least 10 days prior to mating revealed: 0.5 and 2.5 mg EO in 7% PAA significantly disturb the timing of oestrus and mating, but have no apparent effect on rate of pregnancy, ovulation and implantation. 2.5 mg EO in 20 and 40% PAA conspicuously reduces the likelihood of pregnancy, although the occurrence of oestrus and mating are affected only slightly. Fertility in these hamsters was virtually restored, judging from pregnancy rates, when they were remated 11 days, or more, following removal of their implants (37 days after implantation), but significantly more foetuses were resorbed in these litters. From tissue sections of skin and muscle at the implant site, ovary, uterus, pituitary, adrenals and liver, PAA implants, without EO, cause no overt pathological changes in the bearer. Effects characteristic of oestrogen are present when these implants contain EO, and these include a conspicuous thickening of the epidermis and dermis; haemorrhagic lesions were also noted in the maternal placenta of animals with EO implants. There is an association between reproductive performance and the rate of EO release by an implant. A 7% PAA implant with 2.5 mg EO can release most of it within 2 days, and principally influences events (oestrus and mating) that precede the main target (pregnancy) of a 20% PAA implant, which releases the steroid over the longer interval of 7 days.

Abstract. In order to determine whether or not pituitary responsiveness to the dopaminergic antagonist clebopride changes during the nyctohemeral cycle, 10 healthy women with regular cycles were given 1 mg of clebopride orally at 09.00 h and 24.00 h with at least a 5 day interval between each test. In addition, 5 of the women were given a placebo instead of clebopride at midnight to evaluate the spontaneous hormonal changes. During the 24.00 h test the women had significantly higher P < 0.05) mean TSH basal levels. Serum prolactin (Prl) increased significantly (P < 0.001) after clebopride administration while these changes did not occur when placebo was used instead of clebopride at midnight. The Prl response to clebopride was qualitatively similar at 09.00 h and at 24.00 h. Clebopride given at midnight induced a significant increase (P < 0.05) in serum TSH while this change did not occur when the drug was given at 09.00 h or when placebo was given at midnight. The administration of clebopride resulted in no discernible alterations in serum LH, FSH or GH in either the 09.00 h or the 24.00 h tests. Thus, Prl responses to clebopride were similar in the morning and at midnight, TSH significantly increased after clebopride at midnight whereas this did not occur when the drug was given in the morning, and no significant changes were induced in LH, FSH or GH at the times studied.

Dopaminergic Regulation

Abstract. In order to examine regulation of pituitary intermediate lobe secretion, plasma immunoreactive (i)ACTH, cortisol, and α-MSH responses to iv bolus injections of CRF, quipazine maleate (serotonin agonist), isoproterenol (β-adrenergic agonist) or haloperidol (dopamine antagonist) were determined in conscious, unrestrained dogs. Endocrine responses to these test substances were also determined in dogs pre-treated with dexamethasone. Administration of one or more doses of each test substance resulted in significant elevations in plasma iACTH and cortisol concentrations. Only haloperidol injection caused significant increases in plasma iα-MSH. Following dexamethasone pre-treatment, plasma iACTH and cortisol increases in response to all test substances were considerably reduced or abolished. Dexamethasone did not alter baseline or haloperidol-stimulated plasma ia-MSH concentrations. However, infusion of bromocriptine mesylate (dopamine agonist) in combination with dexamethasone pre-treatment reduced the plasma iα-MSH response to haloperidol. We conclude that a dopaminergic pathway is important in the in vivo regulation of pituitary intermediate lobe activity in dogs.
