histophysiology of the pancreatic islets of rana tigrina, treated with glucagon.the effect of mammalian crystalline glucagon (0.5 mg and 2.0 mg/kg) on the blood glucose level and pancreatic islets of rana tigrina was studied at different stages after its treatment. this frog is moderately sensitive to glucagon and exhibits hyperglycemia and regressive changes, primarily in the beta- and secondarily in the alpha-cells of the islet tissue. the effectiveness of the hormone depends upon the dose employed. the restricted damage in only a fraction of the alpha-cells indicates tha ...1976801307
effect of glucose administration on the blood sugar and pancreatic islets of the frog, rana tigrina.glucose evoked significant hyperglycemia in the frog, rana tigrina, 0.5 h after the injection and it took a longer time to regain normoglycemia than mammals, thus exhibiting a low glucose tolerance. the islet tissue of injected animals showed degranulation and atrophy of beta-cells only, the alpha-cells remained almost normal. this damage suggests that the beta-cells of this frog are functionally like those of mammals and other vertebrates, and secrete insulin. a single dose of glucose was found ...1976785932

roles of extracellular matrix components in tiger frog virus attachment to fathead minnow (pimephales promelas) cells.tiger frog virus (tfv) belongs to the genus ranavirus (family iridoviridae) and causes significant harm in cultured frogs, resulting in substantial losses in ecological and economic field in southern china. attachment is the first step in viral life cycle, which is dependent on the interactions of virions with extracellular matrix (ecm) components. studying this process will help in understanding virus infection and controlling viral diseases. in this study, the roles of primary ecm components i ...202032976972
rapid diagnosis of largemouth bass ranavirus in fish samples using the loop-mediated isothermal amplification method.largemouth bass ranavirus (lmbv) has been recognized as the causative pathogen responsible for infectious skin ulcerative syndrome in cultured largemouth bass in china. a fast and simple lmbv detection method is urgently needed. here, a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (lamp) assay was established for the detection of this virus using primers targeting the major capsid protein gene of lmbv. the amplification conditions were optimized; the assay was specific for the diagnosis of lmbv, as th ...202032268179
effect of chlorine dioxide and phosphates on the quality of tiger frog (rana tigrina) meat during 4 °c storage.tiger frog (rana tigrina) meat is extremely perishable. this study investigated the antimicrobial efficacy of chlorine dioxide (clo2 ) on frog meat, optimized the formulation of a phosphate-based enhancement solution by response surface methodology (rsm), and determined the quality parameters (i.e., total aerobic counts [tac], ph, drip loss, cooking loss, color measurements, shear force, total volatile basic nitrogen [tvb-n], and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances [tbars]) of refrigerated f ...202032249422
microbial community structures and important associations between soil nutrients and the responses of specific taxa to rice-frog cultivation.rice-frog cultivation is a traditional farming system in china and has been reintroduced as an agricultural practice in china in recent years. the microbial community in paddy rhizospheric soils has attracted much attention because many microorganisms participate in functional processes in soils. in this study, illumina miseq sequencing-based techniques were used to investigate soil microbial communities and functional gene patterns across samples obtained by conventional rice cultivation (cr) a ...201931440215
tiger frog virus orf104r interacts with cellular vdac2 to inhibit cell apoptosis.ranaviruses belong to the family iridoviridae, and have become a serious threat to both farmed and natural populations of fish and amphibians. previous reports showed that ranaviruses could encode viral bcl-2 family-like proteins (vbcl-2), which play a critical role in the regulation of cell apoptosis. however, the mechanism of ranaviruses vbcl-2 interactions with host protein in mediating apoptosis remains unknown. tiger frog virus (tfv) belonging to the genus ranavirus has been isolated from i ...201931299465
development and characterization of 33 microsatellite loci for the tiger frog hoplobatrachus rugulosus (wiegmann 1834) through transcriptome sequencing.the tiger frog hoplobatrachus rugulosus (wiegmann 1834) is a large robust dicroglossid frog widely distributed in southern china, malaysia, myanmar, vietnam and thailand. the escaped bred tiger frog introduced from thailand hybridized with chinese native population may have affected the genetic diversity of local chinese tiger frogs. however, previous microsatellite loci of this species do not offer enough information to construct the genetic map. here, we reported 33 new microsatellite loci fro ...201830574879
protein a from orange-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus triggers type i interferon production in fish cell.family nodaviridae consists of two genera: alphanodavirus and betanodavirus, and the latter is classified into four genotypes, including red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus, tiger puffer nervous necrosis virus, striped jack nervous necrosis virus, and barfin flounder nervous necrosis virus. type i interferons (ifns) play a central role in the innate immune system and antiviral responses, and the interactions between ifn and nnv have been investigated in this study. we have found that the ...201829733958
asian bullfrog (rana tigerina) skin gelatin extracted by ultrasound-assisted process: characteristics and in-vitro cytotoxicity.impact of ultrasound-assisted process (uap) on yield and characteristics of asian bullfrog (rana tigerina) skin gelatin was studied and the in-vitro cytotoxicity of the resulting frog skin gelatin was evaluated using caco-2, raw264.7 and l929 cell lines. different ultrasonication modes (5 min on-time with 25 min off-time (5/25) and 10 min on-time with 50 min off-times (10/50)) were implemented for different total ultrasonication times (10-60 min) during gelatin extraction at 55 °c. uap could eff ...202031954782
