      • The Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Active Immunization against GnRH (Immuno-Castration): using Rat as a Model

        Xing-fa Han,Xian-yin Zeng 한국동물생명공학회(구 한국동물번식학회) 2014 한국동물번식학회 한중일 심포지엄 Vol.2014 No.1

        The present study was aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms of active immunization against GnRH by focusing on effects of active immunization against GnRH on hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular axis. Adult male rats (n=36) were randomly and equally allocated into three groups: control (no treatment), surgically castrated, or immunized against 50 ug D-Lys6-GnRH-tandem-dimer peptide conjugated to ovalbumin in Specol adjuvant at 12 weeks of age (with a booster 8 weeks later). Blood samples (for antibody titers and hormone concentrations) were collected at 2-week intervals until rats were killed at 20 weeks of age. At decapitation, testes weight /volume and pituitary weight were recorded. Hypothalamus, pituitary and testis were collected to detect the mRNA expressions of reproduction-related genes with real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, and the hypothalamus and testes were excised for tissue GnRH detection and morphological observation, respectively. Compared to intact controls, immunocastration reduced (p<0.05) serum concentrations of testosterone, LH and FSH, and the GnRH content in the median eminence, reduced the weight of the hypohysis (p<0.01), and induced testicular atrophy (suppression of spermatogenesis). Furthermore, mRNA expression of GnRH in the hypothalamus, GnRH receptor, LH-β and FSH-β in the pituitary, LH receptor and FSH receptor in the testes, and genes in sex steroid feedback loops (androgen receptor (AR), kisspeptin encoded gene (Kiss-1) and kisspeptin receptor (GPR54) in the hypothalamus were decreased in immunocastrated rats compared to intact controls (p<0.05). Similarly, surgical castration reduced GnRH in the median eminence as well as mRNA expression of GnRH, AR, Kiss-1 and GPR54 in the hypothalamus (p<0.05). These results suggest that active immunization against GnRH reduces GnRH synthesis in the hypothalamus by decreasing androgen-androgen receptor-Kisspeptin-GPR54 signaling pathways and causes dysfunction of the pituitarytesticular axis. Both the loss of GnRH synthesis and dysfunction of the pituitary- testicular axis seem to be mechanisms underlying immunocastration.

        Ethyl Methane Sulfonate Induces Disease Resistance in Begonia × hiemalis Fotsch.

        Yang-Er Chen,Ying-Hong Zhang,Shu Yuan,Han-Mei Liu,Xian-Yin Zeng,Huai-Yu Zhang 한국원예학회 2014 Horticulture, Environment, and Biotechnology Vol.55 No.6

        To evaluate the disease resistance of Begonia × hiemalis Fotsch. ‘Schwabenland Red’ mutants induced byethyl methane sulphonate (EMS), we investigated the incidence and severity of stem rot caused by Rhizoctoniasolani Kuhn, and their morphological changes. In this study, we obtained three mutants with highly resistant diseaseafter two rounds of screening when the inoculated amount was 3 sheets/plant. The severity scale was 0 and therewere no obvious symptoms of stem rot in highly resistant Begonia × hiemalis. However, most of EMS mutagenizedplants were susceptible to stem rot caused by R. solani under this inoculated amount. In addition, these resistantmutants had different phenotypes as compared with the uninfected control plants. The color of leaves of the R. solani-resistent mutants was different with the control plants and their leaves were bigger than that of the control. The shape and number of their flowers were obviously different, as compared to the control plants.
