| observational study of "urine testing" in the horse and donkey stallion. | although "urine testing" is said to enable the male equid to assess the sexual status of the mare, there are no reports in the literature of any detailed study of this behavioural response of the stallion. behavioural response to conspecific urine was studied in two horse stallions and one donkey stallion. the relevant nasopalatine anatomy is described. events observed during urine testing included head, neck, lip, jaw, tongue movements, penile changes and nasal secretion. nasal endoscopy indica ... | 1983 | 6641679 |
| estimation of 14c-triolein assimilation from postprandial serum radioactivity of 14c. | in an attempt to establish a test of lipid assimilation, based on the measurement of the postprandial serum radioactivity of 14c from ingested 14c-triolein, the activity of 14c was measured in serum samples, drawn 1,2,3,4,6 and 9 h after ingestion in 48 consecutive patients suspected of malassimilation. simultaneously, faecal excretion of 14c was measured to estimate 14c-triolein assimilation (f-14c-ass). f-14c-ass served as reference of 14c-triolein assimilation. the sum of the 2- and 4-h serum ... | 1983 | 6648327 |
| cortical infarction in rabbits with serum sickness following cyclosporin a therapy. | rabbits given acute serum sickness (ass) and treated with cyclosporin a (cya) developed glomerular capillary thrombosis and cortical infarction. these lesions were associated with severe endothelial injury and platelet-fibrin-leucocyte thrombi. they were not seen in untreated rabbits with ass, nor in normal rabbits given cya alone in equivalent doses. a similar renal lesion has been reported in patients receiving cya following bone marrow transplantation. | 1983 | 6657686 |
| hormonal regulation of two urea-cycle enzymes in cultured foetal hepatocytes. | foetal-rat hepatocytes were cultured in primary monolayer culture, and activity changes of argininosuccinate synthetase (ass, ec 6.3.4.5) and argininosuccinase (asl, ec 4.3.2.1) were followed under defined hormone conditions. in hormone-free medium, cultured cells maintained the enzyme activities at values equal to those of freshly isolated cells for at least 3 days. continuous addition of dexamethasone produced the development of the two enzyme activities, but only after the first 20h of cultur ... | 1983 | 6661196 |
| analysis of competition for substrate sites in an allosteric enzyme with co-operative kinetics. effects of damp and dump on donkey spleen deoxycytidylate aminohydrolase. | hypotheses about the interactions of effectors with conformations of allosteric enzymes having co-operative kinetics can be tested simply and exactly without knowledge of the nature of the intersubunit co-operativity by using a linkage approach to the analysis of steady-state kinetics. applying this approach to competition for substrate sites in the allosteric enzyme donkey spleen dcmp aminohydrolase, we show that the kinetics are consistent with the hypothesis that the substrate dcmp and the co ... | 1983 | 6662104 |
| onchocerca raillieti: adult location and skin distribution of the microfilaria in sudanese donkeys. | onchocerca raillieti is the only onchocerca species infecting sudanese donkeys; it occurs only in the ligamentum nuchae, especially in the lamellar part of the ligament. the morphological features of both uterine and skin microfilariae were determined. skin microfilariae are shorter than uterine ones and tend to accumulate in the regions of linea alba and withers of infected donkeys. the possible identity of the vector of this worm in the sudan is discussed. | 1983 | 6668423 |
| [combined effect of fm-100 and several anti-ulcer agents on ulcer induced by ligation of the pylorus in rats]. | single administration of fm-100 (50, 200 mg/kg, i.p.), cimetidine (200, 800 mg/kg, i.d.), pirenzepine (5, 20 mg/kg, i.d.) and ass (20, 80 mg/kg, p.o.) dose-dependently prevented ulcer formation in pylorus-ligated rats. fm-100 and pirenzepine dose-dependently decreased the volume of gastric juice with a slight increase in the ph, but scarcely influenced pepsin activity. the inhibitory effect of cimetidine on gastric secretion was characterized by an elevation in the ph of the gastric juice. ass a ... | 1983 | 6688602 |
| glomerular thrombosis and cortical infarction in cyclosporin-treated rabbits with acute serum sickness. | rabbits given acute serum sickness (ass) and treated with cyclosporin a (cya) developed glomerular capillary thrombosis and cortical infarction, lesions not seen in unmodified ass. thirty-three nzw rabbits received a single intravenous injection of 250 mg/kg bovine serum albumen (bsa) with or without endotoxin (5 micrograms/kg) on day 0. groups of rabbits were given intramuscular cya as follows: 15 mg/kg from day -2 to +8, or 25 mg/kg/day from day -20 to +3 or day 0 to 5. signs of this renal inj ... | 1984 | 6696830 |
| increased corrosion of stainless steel implants in infected plated fractures. | correlation has previously been observed between the incidence of metal hypersensitivity (ni, cr, co) and the incidence of infection after internal fixation of bone fractures. as there is no doubt that exposure to high concentrations of metal can cause allergy, metal levels (cr, ni, mo, co) were analyzed in implant contact tissues by ass. both the absolute concentration of the ions and the ni:cr ratio in the tissues adjacent to metal implants is greater in infected cases than in non-infected. th ... | 1984 | 6703879 |
| [effect of fab-fragments of antibodies against spleen cell surface antigens on the development of antibody formation in cultures of different densities]. | the role of surface antigens in the density-dependent inhibition of primary immune response in mouse spleen cell cultures was investigated. for this purpose fab-fragments of rabbit igg obtained after immunization with mouse splenocytes were used. such fab-fragments alone had no effect on immune response in both optimal and dense cultures. however, successive treatment of cells with fab-fragments and with ass antibodies against rabbit igg dramatically augmented the density-dependent inhibition of ... | 1984 | 6704524 |
| verminous (strongylus vulgaris) myelitis in a donkey. | a fifth stage strongylus vulgaris migrated through the spinal cord of a 2-year-old, male donkey resulting in progressive paraparesis and then tetraplegia. a profound neutrophilic pleocytosis was detected on analysis of cerebrospinal fluid. the parasite appeared to have entered the mid-lumbar spinal cord, migrated to the cranial thoracic segments, exited, then re-entered the spinal cord a few segments craniad. it then traveled further cranially and was found in the third cervical spinal cord segm ... | 1984 | 6705537 |
