[gamma globulin in secondary antibody deficiency syndrome]. | 12 patients with secondary antibody deficiency syndrome received a new gammaglobulin compound intravenously (lyoph. srk sandoz). the drug was given in a 3% nacl-solution once to four times. at the end of the infusion of 6 g gammaglobulin and after one week, serum levels were significantly higher. gammaglobulin intravenously was well tolerated in all cases. severe infections during the period of treatment were not observed. | 2000 | 92444 |
populational polymorphisms in silver staining of nucleolus organizer regions (nors) in human acrocentric chromosomes. | the ag stainability of the nucleolus organizer region (nor) was studied in the acrocentric chromosomes identified by q banding of cultured lymphocytes in 41 karyotypically normal persons (33 males and 8 females) originating from southeast estonia. the data obtained are compared with those established earlier for a combined vienna-ulm population of 51 karyotypically normal persons (see mikelsaar et al., 1977a). significant differences between the two populations in the frequency and patterns of a ... | 1979 | 92452 |
nonspecific light loss and intrinsic dna variation problems associated with feulgen dna cytophotometry. | nonspecific light loss by the cell-wall-plus-cytoplasm (cwc) can cause a 50% increase in feulgen absorption units in peanut root-tip nuclei as determined by scanning at 450 nm, whereas this phenomenon is not evident with chicken erythrocytes. a two wavelength scanning method of subtracting nonspecific 450 nm absorption from 550 nm feulgen absorption values eliminated the nonspecific light loss in cwc, however, the two wavelength scanning method is time consuming and somewhat impractical with a r ... | 1979 | 92496 |
applications of microcomputer technology to cytophotometry. | lack of appropriate software support for microprocessor program development has previously limited the applications of such technology in the field of microspectrophotometry. this paper describes our use of a vickers m86 integrating microdensitometer coupled through a custom-designed interface circuit to a processor technology sol iii microcomputer. w e have developed a series of interactive, user-oriented programs for dna-feulgen cytophotometry with this instrument to allow automatic storage of ... | 2000 | 92497 |
macrophage oxygen-dependent antimicrobial activity. i. susceptibility of toxoplasma gondii to oxygen intermediates. | a sensitive method for evaluating extracellular parasite viability was used to determine the in vitro susceptibility of virulent toxoplasma gondii to selected oxygen intermediates. by acridine orange fluorescent staining criteria, toxoplasmas were resistant to up to either 10(-3) m reagent h2o2 or h2o2 generated by glucose-glucose oxidase. in keeping with a lack of sensitivity to h2o2, toxoplasmas contained endogenous catalase (5.7 x 10(-4) baudhuin units/10(6) organisms). the addition of a pero ... | 1979 | 92521 |
ia determinants on human t-cell subsets defined by monoclonal antibody. activation stimuli required for expression. | the nature of ia antigens which appear on human t cells after activation and the stimuli required for their expression was examined utilizing a monoclonal antibody reactive with the ia antigen framework. t cells were purified using monoclonal antibodies directed either at the entire t-cell population (okt3) or the t-cell inducer subset (okt4). by indirect immunofluorescence, it was shown that the human t-cell population contains no detectable ia+ cells in the resting state. in contrast, in exces ... | 1979 | 92523 |
right/left differences of median nerve evoked scalp potentials in multiple sclerosis. | scalp potentials evoked by electrical stimulation of the median nerve at the wrist were examined in multiple sclerosis patients and healthy controls. the latencies of the first negative peak (about 18 ms latency) of the response to right and to left-sided stimulation were compared. forty-eight of 60 measured latency differences in 15 suspected or certain ms patients were more than 3 standard deviations beyond the average difference in controls (arbitrary norm limit), whereas none of the 56 resul ... | 2001 | 92533 |

study of the interaction between phosphorylase and hydrophobic groups by means of affinity electrophoresis. | a homologous series of water-soluble alkyl-dextrans varying in the length of their hydrocarbon side-chain [-nh-(ch2)n-ch3; n = 1-5] were synthesized. when alkyl-dextrans were entrapped in polyacrylamide gel, the electrophoretic mobility of phosphorylase was retarded by hydrophobic interaction between phosphorylase and the immobilized alkyl groups. the dissociation constants of rabbit brain phosphorylase, rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase a and b and potato glycogen and starch phosphorylases w ... | 1979 | 94915 |
[indoleamine precursors in depression (author's transl)]. | tryptophan and 5-hydroxytryptophan have now been extensively investigated in affective disorders. there is now very good evidence that tryptophan increases the antidepressant activity of monoamine oxidase inhibitors. the antidepressant activity of tryptophan and 5-hydroxytryptophan has also been the subject of numerous investigations. there is evidence that patients with decreased cerebrospinal fluid concentration of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid respond particularly favourably to this treatment. t ... | 2001 | 95009 |

[dangers of rapid digitalization]. | on the patients with moderate and severe heart insufficiency haemodynamic, clinical and electrocardiographic examinations were carried out. after the application of digitoxin at the beginning in the majority of cases no favourable effects on clinical and haemodynamic findings could be proved. in 2 patients with cor pulmonale even a drastic deterioration with increase of the pulmonary pressure and formation of a pulmonary oedema developed. the temporary analysis of the systole and the estimation ... | 2001 | 95071 |
the keraton. a biological unit of the epidermis. | the term keraton is proposed to denote that specific subpopulation of epidermal cells that matures to form epidermis and horny layer exclusive of other functional units within the epidermis such as melanocytes, acrosyringium, acrotrichium, langerhans' cells, and nerves. | 2001 | 95081 |
demonstration of a murine cell surface component with affinity for exogenous beta 2-microglobulin. | murine and human beta 2-microglobulin (beta 2m) bind to various types of mouse cells. the binding is saturable and displays a single association constant of about 1 x 10(9) liter/mol. the binding of beta 2m to splenocytes was not affected by a variety of metabolic inhibitors but was temperature-dependent. it is suggested that the beta 2m "receptor" exhibits a temperature-dependent conformational change since the "receptor", whether integrated into the membrane or solubilized by the detergent tri ... | 1979 | 95108 |

subclassification of murine t cells by computerized microphotometric analysis. | splenocytes separated by physical means and classified as t cells bay immunologic tests and computerized microphotometric analysis are differentiated into subgroups by analysis of the distribution patterns of feulgen-positive nuclear dna. in like fashion t cells obtained as purified preparations after separation on a nylon column, and accepted as t cells by micromorphometric analysis were subjected to further computerized morphometric analysis of nuclear dna to form subgroups of cells. in each c ... | 2001 | 95181 |
normally functioning inhibited pacemaker concomitant with vertebral nerve stimulator. | electromagnetic inference is a recognized difficulty in concomitant cardiac pacing and nerve stimulation. a case is reported in which a vertebral nerve stimulator was implanted, with a transmitter antenna distal to the right nipple. six months later, intermittent s-a block with adams-stokes attacks urgently necessitated cardiac pacing. the ecg lead ii showed nerve stimulator potentials of 0.75 mv. intracardiac electrogram with unipolar electrode registered potential of 0.25 mv, but with a bipola ... | 2001 | 95228 |
aggression in humans correlates with cerebrospinal fluid amine metabolites. | cerebrospinal fluid of the major central metabolites of serotonin (5ht), norepinephrine (ne), and dopamine (da)--5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5hiaa), 3-methoxy-4-hydroxy=phenylglycol (mhpg), and homovanillic acid (hva), respectively--were studied in a group of 26 age-similar military men with no history of major psychiatric illness, but with various personality disorders and difficulties adjusting to military life. independently scored history of aggressive behavior showed a significant negative ... | 2001 | 95232 |
