环境丰容对川金丝猴毛尾线虫感染的影响分析 by 胡新波 黄淑芳 何 鑫 于学伟 朱 岩 胡红卫

“…首先分析了丰容前7只川金丝猴毛尾线虫的感染情况,通过7次取样结果显示每克粪便中毛尾线虫卵达到10 000/g以上的占70%; 其次分析7只川金丝猴在相同季节进行的丰容前后毛尾线虫感染程度的变化,通过2012年9～11月和2013年8～10月共12次取样,结果采用重复测量的方差分析比较,发现丰容后感染情况明显低于丰容前(<i>F</i>=13.33,<i>P</i>=0.001); 再次对环境丰容3个月后毛尾线虫卵与丰容前比较,通过2014年1月的5次取样,结果同样采用重复测量的方差分析比较发现,丰容后3个月的虫卵与丰容前无显著差异(<i>F</i>=1.529,<i>P</i>=0.240)。…”

Metabolic Activity in Human Intermuscular Adipose Tissue Directs the Response of Resident PPARγ⁺ Macrophages to Fatty Acids by Xiaoying Chen, Sebastian Ludger Schubert, Aline Müller, Miguel Pishnamaz, Frank Hildebrand, Mahtab Nourbakhsh

“…<b>Results</b>: Data from 14 adults revealed that PPARγ⁺ macrophages exclusively reside in intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT), and their abundance correlates with the metabolic status of surrounding adipocytes during tissue maintenance in vitro for 9–11 days. Elevated fatty acid levels lead to significant increases in PPARγ⁺ populations, which are correlated with the donor’s body mass index (BMI). …”
