چکیده انگلیسی
Chronic ingestion of bracken fern (Pteridium spp.) by cattle produces upper alimentary tract and urinary bladder tumours causing a syndrome called bovine enzootic haematuria (BEH). Previous studies demonstrated ptaquiloside-DNA adducts and mutations in the h-ras gene in ileal epithelial cells of bracken fern-fed calves. Systematic inspection of the bladder mucosa of grazing cattle (n=126) from bracken-fern areas was carried out in a slaughterhouse. Of the 126 slaughterhouse cattle, 46 showed macroscopical lesions of the bladder. These bladders, together with six others known to have BEH, were examined histopathologically and by H-ras immunohistochemistry. Thirteen affected bladders were also examined by H-ras molecular analysis to detect mutations. Macroscopical and histological study of urinary bladder lesions found at the slaughterhouse revealed chronic cystitis (34.1%) and tumours (2.4%). There was significantly increased immunohistochemical expression of H-ras (P<0.05) in chronic cystitis (H-ras=53.24%) and bladder tumours (H-ras=63.60%) as compared with normal urinary bladders (H-ras=4.32%). A silent mutation (D38D) was detected in one animal with a mixed bladder tumour. The prevalence of urinary bladder lesions (chronic cystitis and tumours) obtained at the slaughterhouse was higher than expected. This study demonstrates that close inspection of urinary bladders of adult grazing cows is necessary to prevent possible human exposure to bracken-fern carcinogens. The absence of mutations in the codons of h-ras studied did not exclude the presence of polymorphisms in other regions of the gene (promoter or regulation sequences) or in other genes (belonging or not to the ras family) that significantly affect the H-ras protein.
