(1) this hypothesis is said to be supported by the fact that cholera toxin, which raises camp levels in lymphoid tissue in vivo, is immunosuppressive. however, we found that cholera toxin inhibited antibody production only if given in doses causing gross d ... | 1976 | 194828 |
| absence of the effect of ephedrine on levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate in human lymphocytes. | concentrations of 10(-6) to 10(-3) m ephedrine did not increase cyclic adenosine monophosphate (camp) levels of normal human lymphocytes even in the presence of theophylline or cortisol, which enhance the response to isoproterenol or prostaglandin e1. preincubation for 2 hr with ephedrine did not reduce the subsequent effect of isoproterenol, although preincubation with isoproterenol itself did. therefore, ephedrine is not a direct beta-adrenergic agonist on human peripheral blood lymphocytes. | 1977 | 194936 |
| cyclic adenylic acid-dependent and -independent production of chloramphenicol acetyltransferase in escherichia coli carrying r plasmids. | a plasmid-specified, inducible, but cyclic adenylic acid (camp)-independent resistance to chloramphenicol (cm) is reported. the resistance level to cm was increased two- to fourfold by treatment with a small amount of cm for a short period in escherichia coli strains carrying the r plasmid pjy1, which was obtained from a clinical isolate of vibrio cholerae. though camp was required for production of cm acetyltransferase (catase) in camp-deficient mutants of e. coli carrying the r100 plasmid, the ... | 1977 | 195517 |

| simple sensitive technique for detecting organochlorine pesticides on thin layer chromatograms. | chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides can be quickly detected using commercially available thin layer chromatographic plates dipped in an acetone solution of silver nitrate. the limits of detection are functions of the pesticide, adsorbent, developing system, and concentration of the silver nitrate in acetone solution. on exposure to ultraviolet light, 0.002 microgram 2,4,5-t produced clear darkening within 30 min on precoated silica gel plates (polyvinyl alcohol binder) coated with a solution of 0 ... | 1994 | 197057 |
| mechanisms of disease and immunity in cholera: a review. | the adenyl cyclase-activating enterotoxin of vibrio cholerae was shown to contain two types of subunit: six smaller units (l) that are responsible for the binding to cell membrane receptors and a larger unit (h) that mediates the toxic action. the receptor was identified as the ganglioside gm1 (galactosyl-n-acetylgalactosaminyl [sialosyl] lactosyl ceramide), and the results suggested that penetration of the toxin molecule into the membrane follows the rapid binding to gm1. the relationship of th ... | 1977 | 197173 |

| regulation of amylase release from dispersed pancreatic acinar cells. | 1. a study has been made of factors influencing release of amylase from dispersed pancreatic acinar cells. 2. in the basal, unstimulated, condition cells released 2-3% of the total amylase present in 30 min. 3. the rate of amylase release was stimulated 50-70% by c-terminal octapeptide of cholecystokinin (cck-op, maximally effective concentration, 3 x 10(-10) m); carbamylcholine (maximally effective concentration, 10(-5 m); secretin (maximally effective concentration greater than 10(-6) m); vaso ... | 1977 | 198531 |

| cell receptors for paramyxoviruses. | treatment of chick embryo fibroblasts, calf kidney and bhk cells for 30 minutes with the enzyme neuraminidase from vibrio cholerae causes an enhancement of the per cent of attached ndv virions. this enhancement does not depend on the multiplicity of infection. the quantity of spontaneously eluted and cellbound virus is two times greater than the quantity of the same virus derived from control cells. n-acetyl-neuramin lactose inhibits the effect of vibrio cholerae neuraminidase. after prolonged a ... | 1977 | 199141 |
| effects of neuraminidase on lectin binding by wild-type and ricin-resistant strains of hamster fibroblasts. | the nature of cell surface receptors for ricin on wild-type and ricin-resistant variants of baby hamster kidney fibroblasts has been studied. neuraminidase stimulated ricin binding threefold by wild-type cells, and increased their susceptibility to ricin toxicity as measured by inhibition of [3h]leucine uptake (ld30 fell from 5.0 to 0.5 microgram/ml). basal ricin binding by ricin-resistant variants (10-300% that of wild type) was also stimulated (2- to 17-fold) by neuraminidase in all seven clon ... | 1977 | 199243 |
| [solubility of adenosine in concentrated salt solutions]. | the solubility of adenosine has been measured in concentrated neutral salt solutions of naclo4 (salt-destabilizer) and na2so4 (salt-stabilizer) as a function of salt concentration and temperature. the thermodynamic functions of adenosine transfer from water to salt solutions have been estimated. the values of delta ftr, delta htr, delta str adenosine transfer in naclo4 solutions are negative, in na2so4--positive. the results are considered in connection with the mechanism of high concentrations ... | 2001 | 199278 |

| studies of isolated adult rat heart cells: the surface morphology and the influence of extracellular calcium ion concentration on cellular viability. | rat cardiac muscle was dissociated into single cells by a coronary perfusion technique with collagenase and hyaluronidase in a ca-free medium. retention of the cylindrical shape of isolated muscle cells could be achieved by regulation of [ca2+]0 and temperature. cells kept at 4 degrees c, and 0-01 mm cacl2 remained cylindrical for more than a week and contracted spontaneously upon warming at 37 degrees c. at [ca2+]0 between 0-1-2 mm and 37 degrees c, cells underwent contracture and rounded up. s ... | 1977 | 201046 |
| progesterone interaction with estrogen and antiestrogen in the rat uterus--receptor effects. | daily injections of estradiol or the antiestrogen tamoxifen initially stimulate uterine weight increase and progesterone receptor synthesis, though continued tamoxifen fails to maintain the increased weight. the stimulatory actions of both estradiol and tamoxifen are inhibited or reversed by a single injection of progesterone. it has been hypothesized that progesterone antagonizes estrogen action by reducing estrogen receptor levels, but in the present experiments neither cytoplasmic nor nuclear ... | 1977 | 201053 |
| the ultrastructure of malignant fibrous histiocytoma (case report). | a soft tissue malignant fibrous histiocytoma was studied by light and electron microscopy. the presence of fibroblast-like cells, histiocyte-like cells, undifferentiated stem cells, and xanthomatous cells was confirmed. fibroblast- and histiocyte-like multinucleated giant cells were also observed. the observation of lysosomes in some fibroblast-like cells, the features of undifferentiated stem cells, and the presence of cells and intermediate characteristics common to xanthomatous, histiocytic, ... | 2003 | 201064 |
| [content of free amino acids in rabbit tissues as affected by adrenalectomy and administration of hydrocortisone and acth]. | adrenalectomy is accompanied by a decreased content of free amino acids in muscules and blood plasma by an increased content of certain amino acids in the liver. a single injection of hydrocortisone to adrenalectomized animals increases the content of amino acids in muscles and lowers their total content in the liver; a single injection of acth lowers the total content of amino acids in the liver and blood plasma "substitutive therapy" by hydrocortisone essentially increases the content of amino ... | 1977 | 201065 |
| viral hepatitis: enzyme assays and serologic procedures in the study of an epidemic. | an epidemic of viral hepatitis beginning in late 1975 in a residence for multiply handicapped children, recognized very early in its course, was investigated prospectively to permit comparison of enzymatic and serologic tests. thirty-three residents of the institution and 46 full- and part-time employees were studied by the immune adherence hemagglutination procedure for antibody (anti-hav) to hepatitis a virus (hav). of these, 31 residents and 37 staff members were susceptible at the beginning ... | 1977 | 201170 |
