na(+)-coupled alternative to h(+)-coupled primary transport systems in bacteria. | protons are the most common coupling ions in bacterial energy conversions. however, while many organisms, such as the alkaliphilic bacilli, employ h(+)-bioenergetics for electron transport phosphorylation, they use na+ as the coupling ion for transport and flagellar movement. the na+ gradient required for these bioenergetic functions is established by the secondary na+/h+ antiporter. in contrast, vibrio alginolyticus and methanogenic bacteria have primary pumps for both h+ and na+. they use the ... | 1991 | 1665692 |
regulation of the mouse mammary tumor virus (mmtv) binding site in cultured mammary tissue. | the mouse mammary tumor virus (mmtv) initiates infection when the envelope protein, gp52, binds to a cell surface protein and triggers internalization. the hormonal regulation of this protein was studied both in vitro and in vivo. in mammary gland explant culture, levels of the mmtv binding protein were maintained only when prolactin was present in the medium. the further addition of progesterone induced levels to 164% of controls, while estradiol was without effect. these results were reproduce ... | 1991 | 1665450 |
f0f1-atpase from vibrio alginolyticus. subunit composition and proton pumping activity. | an f0f1-atpase was isolated from the membranes of the marine bacterium vibrio alginolyticus. homology between the subunits of the f0-complexes from e. coli and v. alginolyticus was found using antibodies against subunits a, b and c of the e. coli f0f1-atpase. the f0f1-complex from v. alginolyticus was reconstituted into proteoliposomes, which were competent in atp-dependent proton uptake. this process was inhibited by triphenyltin, dccd, and venturicidin. na+ did not affect proton translocation. | 1991 | 1647986 |

the highest gene concentrations in the human genome are in telomeric bands of metaphase chromosomes. | chromosome in situ suppression hybridization has been carried out on human metaphase chromosomes to localize the g+c-richest human dna fraction (which only represents 3.5% of the genome), as isolated by preparative equilibrium centrifugation in cs2so4/3,6-bis(acetatomercurimethyl)-1,4-dioxane density gradient. this fraction essentially corresponds to isochore family h3. the rationale for carrying out this experiment is that this isochore family has, by far, the highest gene concentration, the hi ... | 1992 | 1594593 |
[changes in centrally released arginine vasopressin by stimulation of the medullary reticular formation]. | it has been reported that after 40 minutes of stimulation of the medullary reticular formation (morf), widespread significant increase by 1.4% to 2.8% in brain water content occurs in white matter of the injured hemisphere. recent studies indicate that centrally released arginine vasopressin (avp) influences water permeability of the brain in both normal and pathological conditions. the present study was carried out to clarify the effect of electrical stimulation of morf on centrally released av ... | 1992 | 1562384 |
properties of respiratory chain-linked na(+)-independent nadh-quinone reductase in a marine vibrio alginolyticus. | the respiratory chain of a marine vibrio alginolyticus contains two types of nadh-quinone reductase (nqr): one is an na(+)-dependent nqr functioning as an na+ pump (nqr-1) and the other is an na(+)-independent nqr (nqr-2). nqr-2 was purified about 55-fold from the membrane of mutant nap-1 which is devoid of nqr-1, and its properties were compared with those of nqr-1. in contrast to nqr-1, the purified nqr-2 does not require any salts for activity and is not inhibited by up to 0.4 m salts. the op ... | 1992 | 1543699 |

case report: myocardial ischemia: an overlooked substrate in syncope of aortic stenosis. | the cause of the syncope in aortic stenosis has been the subject of controversy partly because only a few patients have been monitored during their syncopal episodes. among the mechanisms proposed are hypersensitive carotid sinus, complete a-v block, ventricular arrhythmias, and ischemic myocardial depression. it is now accepted that the syncope is caused by a vasodepressor response from stimulation of left ventricular baroceptors, resulting in reflex hypotension and bradycardia. this case repor ... | 2006 | 1539605 |
effects of celiprolol on cardiovascular reactivity to laboratory stressors in patients with hypertension. | an ideal antihypertensive drug should reduce blood pressure not only at rest but also during stressful situations. to test whether this criterion is fulfilled by celiprolol, a new beta 1-selective adrenergic blocker drug with peripheral vasodilating activity, we examined the effects of its oral administration on cardiovascular reactivity to laboratory stressors in 18 patients with essential hypertension, according to a placebo-controlled crossover design. in the 12 patients classified as "respon ... | 2006 | 1534042 |
interleukin-1 receptor antagonist protein inhibits interleukin-8 expression in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated human whole blood. | interleukin-8 (il-8) is a neutrophil and lymphocyte chemoattractant and activator that may play an important role in mediating events at sites of inflammation. il-8 is produced by many cell types in response to a variety of inducers, including interleukin-1 (il-1). studies were conducted to address the question of whether an inhibitor of il-1 action, il-1 receptor antagonist protein (irap), would suppress il-8 production. lipopolysaccharide (lps)-stimulated human whole blood was used as an ex vi ... | 1992 | 1533750 |
purification and characterization of l-2,4-diaminobutyrate decarboxylase from acinetobacter calcoaceticus. | acinetobacter calcoaceticus atcc 23055 produces a large amount of 1,3-diaminopropane under normal growth conditions. the enzyme responsible, l-2,4-diaminobutyrate (daba) decarboxylase (ec 4.1.1.-), was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from this bacterium. the native enzyme had an m(r) of approximately 108,000, with a pi of 5.0, and was a dimer composed of identical or nearly identical subunits with apparent m(r) 53,000. the enzyme showed hyperbolic kinetics with a km of 1.59 mm for daba a ... | 1992 | 1512577 |

development of monoclonal antibodies that identify vibrio species commonly isolated from infections of humans, fish, and shellfish. | monoclonal antibodies (mabs) against vibrio species that infect humans, fish, and shellfish were developed for application in rapid identifications. the pathogens included vibrio alginolyticus, v. anguillarum, v. carchariae, v. cholerae, v. damsela, v. furnissii, v. harveyi, v. ordalii, v. parahaemolyticus, and v. vulnificus. three types of mabs were selected. the first important group included mabs that reacted with only a single species. a second group comprised a number of mabs that reacted w ... | 1992 | 1482190 |
vibrio alginolyticus ("achromobacter") collagenase: biosynthesis, function and application. | bacterial collagenase from aerobic non-pathogenic vibrio alginolyticus chemovar iophagus ("achromobacter" collagenase, ec 3.4.24.08) is an inducible extracellular metallo-proteinase. production of vibrio collagenase is induced specifically by collagen or by its macromolecular fragments. on the cell surface is expressed a specific receptor recognizing collagen structure. the study of natural inducers led to synthetic peptides with inducing properties. vibrio collagenase cleaves collagen helical c ... | 1992 | 1480012 |
ultrastructural alterations of brain cortex in rat following intraperitoneal administration of mercuric chloride. | intraperitoneal administration of a single dose (6 mg/kg body weight) of mercuric chloride (hgcl2) results in ultrastructural changes in brain cortex of the rats. 18 hours after administration of hgcl2 the accumulation of dense deposits of mercury in nerve and glial cell cytoplasm was observed. the quantity of microglia in neuropil was also increased in this experimental group. we postulate that these cerebral macrophages can play an important role in the process of intoxication, too. 5 days aft ... | 1992 | 1479187 |
diagnosis and management of the dandy-walker malformation: 30 years of experience. | thirty-seven patients with dandy-walker malformation were treated between 1959 and 1989. eighty percent of patients became symptomatic by 3 years of age, with 70% presenting within the 1st year of life. hydrocephalus was present in 91% of patients at the time of diagnosis. clinical presentation was most often heralded by symptoms and signs of hydrocephalus with focal neurological findings being a less prominent feature. one third of children demonstrated developmental delay. associated congenita ... | 2006 | 1472430 |
amiloride at ph 7.0 inhibits the na(+)-driven flagellar motors of vibrio alginolyticus but allows cell growth. | amiloride, a specific inhibitor for the na(+)-driven flagellar motors of alkalophilic bacillus, is known to inhibit secondarily the growth of alkalophiles. the motility of a marine vibrio, v. alginolyticus, was almost completely inhibited by 2 mm amiloride either at ph 7.0 or 8.5. we found that this concentration of amiloride inhibited the cell growth completely at ph 8.5 but only slightly at ph 7.0. kinetic analysis of the inhibition of motility by amiloride at ph 7.0 showed that the inhibition ... | 1992 | 1459240 |
[membrane atpase of vibrio alginolyticus. ion transport activity and homology with f0f1-atpase from e. coli]. | f0f1-atpase has been isolated from the marine alkali-resistant bacterium vibrio alginolyticus. the enzyme subunits cross-reacted with antibodies against subunits alpha, beta, gamma, epsilon, and b of e. coli atpase. the purified atpase was reconstituted into liposomes effecting an atp-dependent uptake of h+. proton transport was inhibited by the atpase blockers dccd, triphenyltin, and venturicidin. na+ ions had no effect on atp-dependent proton transport. no atp-dependent transport of na+ was de ... | 1992 | 1457596 |
