Estradiol-induced wasting syndrome in conventionally reared and germ-free mice.
The pathogenesis of the estradiol-induced wasting syndrome is complex and cannot be explained solely by immunological impairment and subsequent infection.
متن کاملDifferences in intestinal mucin dynamics between germ-free and conventionally reared chickens after mannan-oligosaccharide supplementation.
A germ-free (GF) chicken model was used to test 2 hypotheses: 1. microbial colonization of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) influences mucin gene expression and mucin types; and 2. mannan oligosaccharide (MOS) supplementation affects GIT cells directly, without bacteria mediation, compared with bacterial-mediated effect (i.e., indirectly). Gnotobiotic isolators were used: 1) GF, 2) with a singl...
متن کاملColorectal carcinogenesis in germ-free and conventionally reared rats: different intestinal environments affect the systemic immunity.
Intestinal microbiota are considered to play an important role both in colorectal tumor development and in the modulation of mucosal immunity. Studies on animals reared in germ-free (GF, without intestinal microbiota) versus conventional (CV, with regular microbiota colonization of the bowel) conditions can aid in clarifying the influence of bacteria on carcinogenesis and the anticancer immune ...
متن کاملAntigenic Stimuli do not Influence Thymic B Lymphocytes: A Morphological and Functional Study in Germ-Free and Conventionally Reared Piglets
We have recently reported that thymic B lymphocytes (TBL) are the first B-cell subpopulation undergoing isotype switching to IgG and IgA during embryonic life. The aim of this study is to analyze the influence of antigenic stimulation on TBL location and activity using a germ-free (GF) newborn pig model, in which maternal antibodies and antigens do not affect B-cell development. Immunohistologi...
متن کاملReproductive performance in pigs reared under organic conditions compared with conventionally reared pigs
BACKGROUND To achieve a competitive reproductive performance in organic pig farming is a major challenge for this farming practise. Practices and research data regarding conventional pig production are not always applicable to organic production, why field studies are needed to identify differences in performance between organic and conventional pig farms in order to identify areas for improvem...
