Patterns and Direct/Indirect Signaling Pathways in Cardiovascular System in the Condition of Transient Increase of NO.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

To study "patterns" and connections of signaling pathways derived from the rat arterial pulse waveform (APW) under the condition of transient NO increase.

Methods and results

The right jugular vein of anesthetized Wistar rats was cannulated for administration of NO donor S-nitrosoglutathione. The left carotid artery was cannulated to detect APW. From rat APW, 35 hemodynamic parameters (HPs) and several their crossrelationships were evaluated. We introduced a new methodology to study "patterns" and connections of different signaling pathways, which are suggested from hysteresis and nonhysteresis crossrelationships of 35 rat HPs. Here, we show parallel time-dependent patterns of 35 HPs and some of their crossrelationships under the condition of transient increase of NO bioavailability by administration of S-nitrosoglutathione. Approximate nonhysteresis relationships were observed between systolic blood pressure and at least 11 HPs suggesting that these HPs, i.e., their signaling pathways, responding to NO concentration, are directly connected. Hysteresis relationships were observed between systolic blood pressure and at least 14 HPs suggesting that the signaling pathways of these HPs are indirectly connected. Totally, from the crossrelationships of 35 HPs, one can obtain 595 "patterns" and indication of direct or indirect connections between the signaling pathways.

Conclusion

We described the procedure leading virtually to 595 relationships, from which "patterns" for transient NO increase and direct or indirect connections of signaling pathways can be suggested. From a clinical perspective, this approach may be used in animal models and in humans to create a data bank of patterns of crossrelationships of HPs for different cardiovascular conditions. By comparison with unknown patterns of studied APW with the data bank patterns, it would be possible to determine cardiovascular conditions of the studied subject from the recorded arterial blood pressure. Additionally, it can help to find molecular mechanism of particular (patho-) physiological conditions or drug action and may have predictive or diagnostic value.

Project description:BackgroundFeather pecking is a major welfare issue in laying hen industry that leads to mortality. Due to a ban on conventional cages in the EU and on beak trimming in some countries of the EU, feather pecking will become an even bigger problem. Its severity depends both on the victim receiving pecking and on its group mates inflicting pecking (indirect effects), which together determine plumage condition of the victim. Plumage condition may depend, therefore, on both the direct genetic effect of an individual itself and on the indirect genetic effects of its group mates. Here, we present estimated genetic parameters for direct and indirect effects on plumage condition of different body regions in two purebred layer lines, and estimates of genetic correlations between body regions.MethodsFeather condition scores (FCS) were recorded at 40 weeks of age for neck, back, rump and belly and these four scores were added-up into a total FCS. A classical animal model and a direct-indirect effects model were used to estimate genetic parameters for FCS. In addition, a bivariate model with mortality (0/1) was used to account for mortality before recording FCS. Due to mortality during the first 23 weeks of laying, 5363 (for W1) and 5089 (for WB) FCS records were available.ResultsTotal heritable variance for FCS ranged from 1.5% to 9.8% and from 9.8% to 53.6% when estimated respectively with the classical animal and the direct-indirect effects model. The direct-indirect effects model had a significantly higher likelihood. In both lines, 70% to 94% of the estimated total heritable variation in FCS was due to indirect effects. Using bivariate analysis of FCS and mortality did not affect estimates of genetic parameters. Genetic correlations were high between adjacent regions for FCS on neck, back, and rump but moderate to low for belly with other regions.ConclusionOur results show that 70% to 94% of the heritable variation in FCS relates to indirect effects, indicating that methods of genetic selection that include indirect genetic effects offer perspectives to improve plumage condition in laying hens. This, in turn could reduce a major welfare problem.
