Título:  Nutritional Programming of Accelerated Puberty in Heifers: Involvement of Pro-Opiomelanocortin Neurones in the Arcuate Nucleus.

Conteúdo:  The timing of puberty and subsequent fertility in female mammals are dependent on the inte-gration of metabolic signals by the hypothalamus. Pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurones inthe arcuate nucleus (ARC) comprise a critical metabolic-sensing pathway controlling the reproductive neuroendocrine axis. a-Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (aMSH), a product of thePOMC gene, has excitatory effects on gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurones andfibres containing aMSH project to GnRH and kisspeptin neurones. Because kisspeptin is a potentstimulator of GnRH release, aMSH may also stimulate GnRH secretion indirectly via kisspeptinneurones. In the present work, we report studies conducted in young female cattle (heifers) aiming to determine whether increased nutrient intake during the juvenile period (4-8 months ofage), a strategy previously shown to advance puberty, alters POMC and KISS1 mRNA expression, as well as aMSH close contacts on GnRH and kisspeptin neurones. In Experiment 1, POMCmRNA expression, detected by in situ hybridisation, was greater (P < 0.05) in the ARC in heifersthat gained 1 kg/day of body weight (high-gain, HG; n = 6) compared to heifers that gained0.5 kg/day (low-gain, LG; n = 5). The number of KISS1-expressing cells in the middle ARC was reduced (P < 0.05) in HG compared to LG heifers. In Experiment 2, double-immunofluorescence showed limited aMSH-positive close contacts on GnRH neurones, and the magnitude of these inputs was not influenced by nutritional ... Mostrar Tudo

Título:  Ecosystem engineers in a self-organized soil: a review of concepts and future research questions.

Conteúdo:  Soils are self-organized ecological systems within which organisms interact within a nested suite of discrete scales. Microorganisms form communities and physical structures at the smallest scale (microns), followed by the community of their predators organized in microfoodwebs (tens of microns), the functional domains built by ecosystem engineers (centimeters to meters), ecosystems, and landscapes. Ecosystemengineers, principally plant roots, earthworms, termites, and ants, play key roles in creating habitats for other organisms and controlling their activities through physical and biochemical processes. The biogenic, organic, and organomineral structures that they produce accumulate in the soil space to form threedimensional mosaics of functional domains, inhabited by specific communities of smaller organisms (microfauna and mesofauna, microorganisms) that drive soil processes through specific pathways. Ecosystem engineers also produce signaling and energy-rich molecules that act as ecological mediators of biological engineering processes. Energy-rich ecological mediators may selectively activate microbial populations and trigger priming effects, resulting in the degradation, synthesis, and sequestration of specific organic substrates. Signalingmolecules informsoil organisms of their producers? respective presences and change physiologies by modifying gene expression and through eliciting hormonal responses. Protection of plants against pests and diseases is largely achiev... Mostrar Tudo
