We have reported that dietary fish oil (FO) rich in n-3 PUFA modulates gut contractility. It was further demonstrated that the gut of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) has a depressed contractility response to prostaglandins (PG) compared with normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. We investigated whether feeding diets supplemented with n-3 PUFA increased gut contractility and restored the depressed prostanoid response in SHR gut. Thirteen-week-old SHR were fed diets containing fat at 5 g/100 g as coconut oil (CO), lard, canola oil containing 10% (w/w) n-3 FA as alpha-linolenic acid (1 8:3n-3), or FO (as HiDHA, 22:6n-3) for 12 wk. A control WKY group was fed 5 g/100 g CO in the diet. As confirmed, the SHR CO group had a significantly lower gut response to PGE2 and PGF2alpha compared with the WKY CO group. Feeding FO increased the maximal contraction response to acetylcholine in the ileum compared with all diets and in the colon compared with lard, and restored the depressed response to PGE2 and PGF2alpha in the ileum but not the colon of SHR. FO feeding also led to a significant increase in gut total phospholipid n-3 PUFA as DHA (22:6n-3) with lower n-6 PUFA as arachidonic acid (20:4n-6). Canola feeding led to a small increase in ileal EPA (20:5n-3) and DHA and in colonic DHA without affecting contractility. However, there was no change in ileal membrane muscarinic binding properties due to FO feeding. This report confirms that dietary FO increases muscarinic- and eicosanoid receptor-induced contractility in ileum and that the depressed prostanoid response in SHR ileum, but not colon, is restored by tissue incorporation of DHA as the active nutrient. 相似文献

The role of ionotropic glutamate receptors within the ventral pallidum (VP) in the expression of conditioned place preference (CPP) and motor adaptations to morphine was evaluated. VP-cannulated rats were subjected to 3 days of conditioning in which saline was paired to one distinct chamber in the morning and morphine (8 mg/kg ip or its vehicle) was paired to an alternate chamber in the afternoon. This induced (a) CPP expression in drug-free rats 1 day later, which was blocked by immediate pretreatments with intra-VP injections of a glutamate antagonist cocktail (DL-2-amino-5- phosphonopentanoic acid lithium salt [AP-5] + 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione disodium salt [CNQX]), and (b) changes in motor function expressed following an acute morphine challenge 18 days later, which were absent if preceded by a 10-day treatment with the glutamate antagonists injected unilaterally once daily in alternating hemispheres. Thus, VP ionotropic glutamate receptors are critical mediators of the expression of place preference and motor adaptations subsequent to repeated morphine exposure.

A coupled three-dimensional hydrodynamics and two-dimensional underflow model is adapted to provide simulation of plunging inflows in reservoirs. The new approach accounts for the effect of the barotropic term prior to the plunge point of the inflow. Simulations of plunging flows in constant width and constant slope channels are conducted and the resulting plunge depths are in agreement with prior empirical models. Simulation of a previously measured underflow in Wellington Reservoir (Australia) demonstrates the model application to a plunging inflow in a natural water body and good agreement between field and model results. 相似文献

Hydrostatic and non-hydrostatic models were used to simulate the generation of internal surges and associated soliton-like trailing waves from the non-linear steepening of low-frequency basin-scale waves. Results confirmed that the process cannot be modelled using the hydrostatic approximation. A grid-switching strategy was developed to reduce the simulation run-time of the non-hydrostatic model; a low-resolution grid using a hydrostatic computation of the flow field is dynamically switched to a high-resolution grid in the region of propagation of the leading internal surge, using a non-hydrostatic computation of the flow field. The strategy takes advantage of the small time scale required for non-hydrostatic effects to become important such that a high-resolution grid is invoked only when and where these effects become large. Run-time reduction, conservation of the interpolation scheme involved in the grid switching and strategies for field scale studies were addressed. In relation to the laboratory experiments, the grid-switching strategy predicted the phase speed and the amplitude of the leading internal surge similarly to the uniform-grid models, however, the trailing soliton-like waves lost some of their signature. All non-hydrostatic models predicted the features of the energy flux path between low- and high-frequency waves. 相似文献

A separate underflow model is coupled to the three-dimensional (3D) estuary and lake computer model. The underflow equations are solved on a two-dimensional (2D) grid underlying the 3D model grid. The underflow model entrains ambient water whose properties are given by the fluid properties of the bottom boundary cells in the 3D model. This new approach allows improved representation of underflow effects in z-coordinate models by reducing numerical convective entrainment. An idealized case is used to illustrate the benefits of the underflow model. Comparisons of model results and field data for a saline underflow event in Lake Ogawara and a cold-water underflow in Lake Kinneret demonstrate improved model capability in representing underflow events that are thin compared to the vertical grid scale. 相似文献

Results from a three-dimensional hydrodynamic model of a stratified lake show that the computed structure of the pycnocline changed rapidly due to numerical diffusion, thus altering the vertical mixing dynamics and introducing a positive feedback that quickly drives model predictions off course. To negate the numerical diffusion a pycnocline filtering method is proposed that assimilates high-resolution thermistor chain data and adaptively adjusts to minimize the discrepancy between observed and computed temperatures. The adaptive pycnocline filter ensures that the computed temperature gradients in the metalimnion at the position of the thermistor chain remain within the bounds of the measured values so the computation preserves the spectrum of internal wave motions that trigger diapycnal mixing events in the deeper reaches of the lake. 相似文献

We have reported that dietary fish oil (FO) leads to the incorporation of long-chain n−3 PUFA into the gut tissue of small
animal models, affecting contractility, particularly of rat ileum. This study examined the FO dose response for the incorporation
of n−3 PUFA into ileal tissue and how this correlated with in vitro contractility. Groups of ten to twelve 13-wk-old Wistar-Kyoto rats were fed 0, 1, 2.5, and 5% FO-supplemented diets balanced
with sunflower seed oil for 4 wk, after which ileal total phospholipid FA were determined and in vitro contractility assessed. For the total phospholipid fraction, increasing the dietary FO levels led to a significant increase
first evident at 1% FO, with a stepwise, nonsaturating six-fold increase in n−3 PUFA as EPA (20∶5n−3), DPA (docosapentaenoic
acid, 22∶5n−3), and DHA, but mainly as DHA (22∶6n−3), replacing the n−6 PUFA linoleic acid (18∶2n−6) and arachidonic acid
(20∶4n−6) over the dosage range. There was no difference in KCl-induced depolarization-driven contractility. However, a significant
increase in receptor-dependent maximal contractility occurred at 1% FO for carbachol and at 2.5% FO for prostaglandin E2, with a concomitant increase in sensitivity for prostaglandin E2 at 2.5 and 5% FO. These results demonstrate that significant increases in ileal membrane n−3 PUFA occurred at relatively
low doses of dietary FO, with differential receptor-dependent increases in contractility observed for muscarinic and prostanoid
agonists. 相似文献

Under certain tidal conditions, a saline underflow originating in the Pacific Ocean moves into Lake Ogawara, Japan. The underflow consists of a uniform saline bottom layer that is slightly warmer than the ambient and an interfacial shear layer in which the velocity and density are decreased. Within the experimental area the underflow is confined to a channel approximately 1 km wide and is essentially two-dimensional. The underflow had a bulk Richardson number, defined in terms of the mean properties, between 1 and 2. The rate of entrainment into the bottom layer was calculated using two distinct methods. The first method used the change in the maximum salinity of the underflow measured at two stations along the path of the underflow to infer the amount of ambient water entrained. The second method made direct measurements of vertical mass fluxes with a profiler. The agreement between the two methods was excellent. The measured entrainment coefficients were consistent with the derived entrainment law. The turbulent structure of the flow was mapped for a 3 h quasisteady period of the flow. Turbulence is predominantly generated on the bottom boundary and is transported vertically to the density interface, where it leads to mixing. 相似文献
