| mechanism of action of putrescine oxidase. binding characteristics of the active site of putrescine oxidase from micrococcus rubens. | putrescine oxidase (ec 1.4.3.4), putrescine: oxygen oxidoreductase (deaminating) (flavin containing), has been found to form complexes with a variety of amines. with few exceptions these compounds competitively inhibit putrescine oxidation and also perturb the visible absorption spectrum of the enzyme (i.e., the spectrum due to fad). inhibition constants are reported for a number of amines; the presence of a cationic amino group in the inhibitors appears to be the structural feature essential fo ... | 1976 | 1260033 |
| ige-secreting cells in the thymus: correlation with induction of tolerance to ige. | we have shown previously that normal mice become tolerant to endogenous ige when they are approximately 2 weeks old and that this corresponds closely with the initial appearance of ige in serum. tolerance evidently is restricted to t cells, since b cells responsive to ige are present in neonatal and adult mice. the present report shows that ige-secreting cells can be detected in the thymus between days 7 and 11 after birth and that the onset of tolerance to ige occurs at the age of 11 days. simi ... | 2006 | 1594629 |
| the major carotenoid pigment of a psychrotrophic micrococcus roseus strain: purification, structure, and interaction with synthetic membranes. | the major carotenoid pigment of a psychrotrophic micrococcus roseus strain was purified to homogeneity from methanol extracts of dried cells by reverse-phase liquid chromatography and was designated p-3. on the basis of the uv-visible, infrared, mass, and 1h nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of p-3, it was identified as bisdehydro-beta-carotene-2-carboxylic acid. the pigment interacted with synthetic membranes of phosphatidylcholine and dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine and stabilized the membran ... | 1991 | 1744046 |

| review of european clinical experience with fenofibrate. | since the introduction of fenofibrate to european clinical practice in 1975, some 6.5 million patient-years of experience in the treatment of hyperlipidemia have been accumulated. a review of results of clinical trials shows fenofibrate to have a broad spectrum of lipid-lowering activity, reducing the total cholesterol level by 20-25% in type iia patients and triglycerides by 40-60% in type iib and iv patients. high levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol are reduced and, where low at base ... | 2008 | 2653620 |
| lymphoma phenotyping in formalin-fixed and paraffin wax-embedded tissues. i. range of antibodies and staining patterns. | recently, monoclonal antibodies capable of phenotyping malignant lymphomas in routinely fixed and processed tissue have become available. some of these reagents identify lineage-restricted variants of the leucocyte common molecule, whereas others identify unique fixation-resistant epitopes on lymphoid cells, some of which are shared by non-lymphoid tissues. a new generation of antibodies recognizing 'classical' leucocyte antigens such as cd3 are also emerging. refinements in antigen detection sy ... | 2008 | 2661395 |
| detection of messenger rna in routinely processed tissue sections with biotinylated oligonucleotide probes. | in situ hybridization (ish) with a radioactively 35s-labeled probe and a biotinylated oligonucleotide probe for human calcitonin was used to analyze eight cases of medullary thyroid carcinoma (mtc) in paraffin sections. three of these cases were also studied with frozen tissue sections. the biotinylated probe readily detected calcitonin messenger rna (mrna) in routinely processed formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue section within 24 hours. northern hybridization and other control studies dem ... | 1989 | 2756933 |
| in-vitro release of [14c]glutamate from dentate gyrus is modulated by gaba. | the effect of gaba (10(-3) and 10(-4) m) on the release of preloaded [14c]glutamate from slices of rat dentate gyrus, in response to k+ stimulation, was studied in ca2+-free and normal krebs solutions. release in ca2+-free solution was significantly enhanced, but there was no change in release in normal krebs solution. these results imply that ca2+-dependent (presumably neuronal) release of glutamate from the dentate gyrus is depressed by gaba, while non-neuronal ca2+-independent release is enha ... | 1986 | 2872320 |

| specific antibodies reveal ordered and cell-cycle-related use of histone-h4 acetylation sites in mammalian cells. | antibodies specific for the acetylated forms of histone h4 (h4) were produced in rabbits with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the 18 n-terminal residues of tetra-acetylated h4 (i.e. with acetyllysine at positions 5, 8, 12 and 16). specificity was determined by inhibition assays using four additional peptides, each acetylated at only a single site. using an antiserum (r6) specific for the acetylation site at lys-5 we have estimated the proportion of lys-5 sites acetylated in the mono-, di- a ... | 1989 | 2917555 |
| adrenergic receptors: possible mechanism of inverse regulation of alpha- and beta-receptors. | many physiologic and pathologic conditions, including bronchial asthma, are associated with inverse changes in alpha- and beta-receptor-mediated responses in various tissues. the direction of the change elicited by a given stimulus is tissue specific, as exemplified by the actions of thyroid hormones: in the rat heart, hypothyroidism reduces beta- and increases alpha-receptor responses, whereas in the rat liver it has the opposite effects. a similar increase in beta- and decrease in alpha-recept ... | 1985 | 2991359 |
| potentiation of cholinergic tone by pyridostigmine bromide re-instates and potentiates the growth hormone responsiveness to intermittent administration of growth hormone-releasing factor in man. | it is known that in normal subjects repeated administration of the growth hormone-releasing factor (grf) induces a state of partial refractoriness of the somatotropes to grf. studies were conducted to verify whether the cholinergic system plays a role in the mechanism(s) underlying the reduced gh responsiveness to the neuropeptide. in five healthy men, the gh response to three consecutive injections of grf (50 micrograms iv), administered at 2 h intervals, was considerably blunted after the seco ... | 1986 | 3020850 |

| cohabitation, convergence, and environmental covariances. | temporal variation in traits has long been a central theme in epidemiology. however, human geneticists have largely avoided this topic. recently, several authors have shown how temporal variation in relative-to-relative covariances can be accommodated within the framework of variance components analysis. the present paper attempts to clarify the mathematics implicit in their approach. a stochastic mechanism is discussed that causes covariances to converge or diverge exponentially fast as relativ ... | 1986 | 3728567 |

| [postoperative radiotherapy of supratentorial anaplastic glioma]. | between 1970 and 1983, 149 patients with high grade anaplastic supratentorial gliomas received a postoperative irradiation during primary treatment. 118 out of these patients had an anaplastic astrocytoma, 18 an anaplastic oligodendroglioma, and 13 an anaplastic ependymoma. most of these patients were treated by irradiation of a great volume with 50 gy within five weeks, the others by irradiation of the total brain with 50 gy within five weeks and saturation with 10 gy within one week. the one-y ... | 2012 | 3738736 |
| significance of the dog as 'second animal species' in toxicity testing for establishing the lowest 'no-toxic-effect level'. | the toxicity data of 66 compounds adequately tested in the rat (as 'prime animal species') and in the dog (as 'second animal species') were studied to find out for how many of these compounds the study in dogs led to a lower 'no-toxic-effect level' (ntel) than that found in the rat. from a quantitative point of view such information would contribute to a better insight into the desirability of toxicity studies in dogs, because acceptable daily intakes and permissible exposure levels in man are g ... | 1986 | 3760453 |
