Neuroendocrine system
關於神經內分泌系統
• A welfare change affects three subdivisions of the neuroendocrine system:
動物福利變化影響下列三個神經內分泌子系統:
– Hypothalamus 下視丘
– Pituitary gland 腦下垂體
– Adrenal gland 腎上腺
Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal
Axis (HPA)
下視丘-腦下垂體-腎上腺(HPA軸)
• Major mediator of endocrine responses內分泌反應
的主要媒介
• HPA increases mobilisation of energy stores for
physical response HPA加強動員儲存的能量,供生理
反應所需
• HPA mediates responses to: HPA調節的反應包括:
– Stress 壓力
─ Sexual activity 性行為
– Courtship 求偶 ─ Food arrival / foraging 尋覓食物
HPA cascade HPA軸作用流程
Hypothalamus 下視丘
腦下垂體前葉釋放激素
CRH
corticotrophin-releasing hormone
Anterior pituitary gland 腦下垂體前葉
促腎上腺皮質激素
ACTH adrenocorticotrophic hormone
Adrenal cortex 腎上腺皮質
糖皮質素
Glucocorticoids
Liver
Stimulus
刺激
肝臟
HAP vessels
下視丘前葉血管
Module 4
Circulation
血流
HPA characteristics
HPA軸之特性
• Response not as immediate as
sympathetic adreno-medullary system 反應
比交感腎上腺系統慢
• Measure of acute welfare changes 可測量
急性的動物福利變化
– For example, plasma glucocorticoids elevated
between 2-10 minutes after stimulation 動物在
受到刺激後2-10分鐘,糖皮質素的血中濃度提昇
– Can remain elevated for hours depending on
severity of stimulus 依照刺激的強弱,其濃度可以
在血中維持數小時
Glucocorticoid measurement
糖皮質素測量評估
Method

Glucocorticoid measurement
糖皮質素測量評估
• Analytical methods 分析方法
– Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay 酵素
連結免疫吸附分析
– High performance liquid chromatography
高壓液相層析分析
– Competitive protein binding assay 蛋白質結
合競爭分析
– Radioimmunoassay 同位素免疫分析
Glucocorticoids
糖皮質素
• Corticosterone: rodents, birds 囓齒、鳥類
• Cortisol: humans, pigs,
and monkeys 人類、豬、猴
• Useful direct measure
有用的直接測量準則
Glucocorticoid example 1
糖皮質素作用例1
• Cortisol in lambs in response to:
– Tail-docking 小羊在實施斷尾
手術時糖皮質素會升高
– Castration小羊在實施閹割手
術時糖皮質素會升高
(Mellor & Murray, 1989)
Glucocorticoid example 2
糖皮質素作用—例二
• Urinary cortisol increases in
domestic dogs if they are put in
kennels 家犬隻若是被關入狗舍中,可
在尿液中檢測到cortisol濃度上升
(Hennessey et al 1997)
• If the dog has not been in
kennels before, the increase is
greater than if the dog has
experienced kennels before 而且
沒有被關入狗舍經驗的犬隻反應更激烈,
濃度上升越多 (Hiby 2005)
Chronic welfare assessment
慢性福利反應評估
• Indirect assessment of HPA 間接HPA評估法
• Glucocorticoid receptors in the brain 腦中糖皮
質素受體數目
– Number of receptors decreased in rats that were
exposed to prolonged handling and disturbance 大
鼠在經歷重複保定、驚擾的刺激後,發現腦中的受體
數量減少 (Wadham, 1997)
• ACTH challenge test 促腎上腺皮質素測試
– ACTH is administered, and resulting glucocorticoid
levels measured 注射ACTH後測血液中糖皮質素量
ACTH challenge test
促腎上腺皮質素測試
• Example: Dairy cows
以乳牛飼養為例
– Long periods of overcrowding => higher
cortisol response than
if less crowded 經長期
密飼後血中cortisol會升高
(Friend et al., 1977)
Limitations to HPA measures
HPA測量技術之限制
Individual differences: 個體差異
– Early experience 早年生活經驗
(Levine et al., 1967)
– Sex 性別
(Livezey et al., 1985)
– Metabolism 代謝狀態

•
Disturbance due to measurement 測量
之干擾
•
Human presence, handling, restraint
and sampling method 有人在動物旁邊、人
觸摸動物、保定,甚至是採樣方式不當
Other autonomic measures of
animal welfare
其他測量動物福利之項目
• Body temperature 體溫
• Opioid levels 類鴉片物質濃度
• Organ pathology 器官病理變化
Body temperature
體溫代表的意義
• Acute welfare measure 急性的福利測量
• Changes in other physiological systems (e.g.
adrenal activity) => changes in core body
temperature 其他生理系統產生變化(如腎上腺活性改變)
造成中心體溫出現改變
• Rat body temperature by storms and unfamiliar
people 暴風與陌生人會使大鼠的體溫升高(Georgiev,
1978)
• body temperature in defeated tree shrews 社會
地位挑釁落敗的樹鼩體溫反而下降(von Holst, 1986)

receptor density than group-housed
sows 繫頸鏈的豬比群飼豬有較高之類鴉片類受體密

Organ Pathology
器官病變
• Chronic welfare changes => wide variety of
pathologies 慢性動物福利變化可造成多處器官病變
• Most are measured post-mortem e.g., 大部分
是藉由死後解剖來觀察,例如:
– Adrenal hypertrophy 腎上腺肥大
– Kidney lesions 腎臟病變
– Myocardial lesions 心肌病變
• In vivo 活體觀察
– Stomach ulcers 胃潰瘍
Pathology examples
器官病變之例
• Social instability in female groups of rats =
adrenal hypertrophy 置身於不安定社會之雌性大鼠
出現腎上腺肥大的病變(Haller et al., 1999)
• Subordinate mice show kidney lesions in the
presence of dominant animals 在強勢小鼠之存
在下,弱勢鼠產生腎臟的病變 (Henry & StephensLarson, 1985)
• Myocardial lesions associated with longer
periods of restraint in pigs 豬受到長期保定與心肌
病變有關 (Wutzen et al., 1987)

• Direct and indirect ANS measures中樞神經系統
