科普專欄–薯不揀單 - 深入淺出–熊貓渡過寒冬的一道妙計

上集我們講述了小臭鼩應對寒冬的一道機制，今集我們將會講述熊貓應付寒冬的一道怪招。507Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocArmXqK8k

（圖2）有研究發現（Ref1)，當攝氏低過15度的時候，熊貓會將馬糞塗滿全身，而且選糞中亦有一定的揀擇，牠們並不會採用暴露於大自然間超過10日的馬糞。507Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbXyoxwuHR

為何會塗糞上身，而且為何又如此揀擇呢？507Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsoZ1iI2Rs

（圖3）最後科學家發現，新鮮馬糞含有一定份量的化合物，BCP/BCPO (beta-caryophyllene/caryophyllene oxide) ，而這些化合物具有抑壓負責感測寒冷的TRPM8蛋白質功效。507Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3uwBctbbF

利用老鼠作實驗體，在牠們身體塗上BCP/BCPO液體以模仿熊貓塗馬糞的舉動，對比塗上鹽水的對照群組，塗上化合物液體的老鼠較傾向行走寒冷的地方，而且亦較少互相擁抱取暖。507Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8ycJ9uHiz
507Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72mOOkXThX
因此科學家推斷，熊腦大有可能透過馬糞中的化合物抑制身體的TRPM8蛋白質，以自欺欺人的方式盡量減低身體感知寒冷的能力，使自己感覺良好渡過寒冬。507Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68nPhLCu7o

但為何熊貓會懂得馬糞中含有對應的化合物，那就還是一個無法拆解的謎。507Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0t1bJi4N5
亦有可能的是，馬糞還有另外的功用尚未被揭曉出來。507Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2NOw0pvAU
