lectin binding to pseudoexfoliative material and the ocular zonules.	lectin staining of pseudoexfoliative material on the lens capsule, zonules, and iris showed the presence of the beta-d-galactose (1-3) galactosamine sequence, alpha-d-galactosamine, beta-d-galactose, beta-(1-4)-d-glucosamine, and terminal sialic acid. mono and difucosyl binding sites were also found. the likelihood that the lectins were binding to two different galactosamine-containing moieties was supported by their different distributions in the photoreceptors. these affinities suggest a compl ...	2013	3759368
endogenous suppression of neutral-active and calcium-dependent phospholipase a2 in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes.	phospholipase a2 activity was measured in homogenized and acid-extracted human polymorphonuclear leukocytes using [1-14c]oleate-labelled autoclaved escherichia coli as substrate. in whole homogenate and in the supernatant and particular fractions separated by centrifugation at 150,000 x g, phospholipase activity was barely detectable (1-4 pmol/h per 10(6) cell equivalents). by contrast, acid extracts of these fractions contained over 10-times as much phospholipase activity in the dialyzed supern ...	1986	3768394
effect of dilauroylphosphatidylcholine on the acrosome reaction and subsequent penetration of bull spermatozoa into zona-free hamster eggs.	incubation of bull sperm with liposomes made with phosphatidylcholine (pc) containing fatty acyl chains of either 10 (pc10) or 12 (pc12) carbons resulted in greater than 90% of the sperm exhibiting an acrosome reaction (ar) within 15 min. liposomes of pc10 rapidly destroyed sperm motility while pc12 acrosome-reacted sperm remained motile for several h. liposomes of pc with greater than or equal to 14-carbon fatty acyl chains had no effect on the ar or motility of sperm. the ar was not induced by ...	1986	3768462

opiate microinjections into midbrain do not affect the aversiveness of caudal trigeminal stimulation but produce somatotopically organized peripheral hypoalgesia.	high-dose microinjections of morphine sulfate (15 micrograms) and (d-ala2)-met-enkephalin (30 micrograms) were made into the ventral periaqueductal gray of rats. consistent with previous reports using lower doses, both opiates produced hypoalgesia for noxious thermal stimuli applied to the upper and lower body. more hypoalgesia was observed on the face than on the hind legs or tail. current thresholds of aversive reaction to stimulation in the trigeminal subnucleus caudalis were unaffected by mi ...	1986	3768692

low-dose diuretic therapy for hypertension.	the efficacy of low dosages of diuretics was evaluated in two studies. in one, 62 (48%) of 130 patients became normotensive with 2.5 mg/day of metolazone. in the other, 28 (49%) of 57 patients became normotensive with 25 mg of chlorthalidone, compared with 12 (22%) of 55 patients given placebo. there was a marked variation in blood pressure response and the occurrence of hypokalemia (less than 3.5 meq/l of potassium) from center to center and within patient groups in both studies. the mean decre ...	2011	3768929

cardiorespiratory inhibitory reflex induced by intravenous administration of acetaldehyde in rats.	in urethane anesthetized rats, intravenous administration of a bolus of acetaldehyde (diluted 50 times its volume in ringer locke solution) induced after a latency of about 1 second, a triple reflex response characterized by transient bradycardia, hypotension and apnea. intensity of both bradycardia (r = -0.78) and hypotension (r = -0.74) were dose dependent (p less than 0.001). the triple response was blocked by vagotomy. atropine and hexamethonium blocked bradycardia and hypotension and pretre ...	1986	3778648
microsomal binding sites for antioestrogens in rat liver. properties and detergent solubilization.	the properties of an antioestrogen binding site (aebs), which has high affinity and specificity for nonsteroidal antioestrogens and structurally related compounds, have been studied in rat liver microsomes. when subcellular organelles were separated on percoll density gradients the distribution of the aebs paralleled that of nadph-cytochrome c reductase, indicating that the aebs is associated with the endoplasmic reticulum. saturation analysis showed that [3h]tamoxifen was bound to a single clas ...	1986	3790095
