Two techniques have recently been developed to simplify research and reduce the number of nonhuman primates needed in studies of certain complex hormonal reactions. One technique involves the culturing of primate pituitary(垂体)cells and the cells of certain human tumors. In the other, animal oviduct (输卵管) tissue is transplanted under the skin of laboratory primates. Both culturing techniques complement existing methods of studying intact(完整的) animals.
With an in vitro culturing technique, researchers are deciphering how biochemical agents regulate the secretion of prolactin(催乳激素), the pituitary hormone that promotes milk production. The cultured cells survive for as long as a month, and they do not require serum (血清), a commonly used culture ingredient that can influence cellular function and confound study results. One primate pituitary gland may yield enough cells for as many as 72 culture dishes, which otherwise would require as many animals.
The other technique allows scientists to monitor cellular differentiation in the reproductive tracts of female monkeys. While falling short of the long-sought goal of developing an in vitro model of the female reproductive system, the next-best alternative was achieved. The method involves transplanting oviduct tissue to an easily accessible site under the skin, where the grafted cells behave exactly as if they were in their normal environment. In about 80 percent of the grafts, blood vessels in surrounding abdominal skin grow into and begin nourishing the oviduct tissue. Otherwise, the tissue is largely isolated, walled off by the surrounding skin. A cyst(囊胞) forms that shrinks and swells in tandem(一前一后的串联) with stages of the menstrual cycle. With about 80 percent of the grafts reestablishing themselves in the new site, a single monkey may bear as many as 20 miniature oviducts that are easily accessible for study. Because samples are removed with a simple procedure requiring only local anesthesia, scientists can track changes in oviduct cells over short intervals. In contrast, repeated analysis of cellular changes within the oviduct itself would require abdominal surgery every time a sample was taken a procedure that the animals could not tolerate.
Scientists are using the grafting technique to study Chlamydia (衣原体)infections, a leading cause of infertility among women. By infecting oviduct tissues transplanted into the abdominal skin of rhesus (罗猴)monkeys, researchers hope to determine how the bacteria cause pelvic inflammatory disease and lesions(损害)that obstruct the oviduct. Such research could eventually lead to the development of antibodies to the infectious agent and a strategy for producing a Chlamydia vaccine. [br] All of the following are true of the transplantation technique EXCEPT that ______.
选项
A、it avoids the need for subjecting a laboratory subject to repeated major surgery
B、it permits scientists to monitor changes frequently
C、the transplanted cells grow as they would in their normal site
D、the transplanted cells can be easily grown in vitro
答案
D
解析
细节题。要注意题目中的except这个字,正确的选项内容在文中是无法找到的。A,B,C的相关内容我们都可在文章的第三段中找到,实验过程避免了重复手术,新技术可以保证长期观察以及细胞的活动正常。然后D模糊了阅读理解,In vitro culturing of cell属于第一种技术。
