mechanism of plasma cyclic amp response to hypoglycemia in man. | the effect of insulin-induced hypoglycemia on plasma cyclic amp levels was studied in normal volunteers, adrenalectomized, and sympathectomized subjects. significant increases in plasma glucagon were observed in all groups. normal subjects all had two- to threefold rises in plasma camp while no response was seen in any adrenalectomized or sympathectomized subject. these findings suggest that the mechanism for enhanced plasma camp release during insulin-induced hypoglycemia is catecholamine depen ... | 1976 | 178982 |
activation of intestinal mucosal adenylate cyclase by shigella dysenteriae i enterotoxin. | because the mechanism whereby shigella dysenteriae i enterotoxin induces intestinal secretion is unclear, the effect of this toxin on adenylate cyclase activity in rabbit ileal mucosa was studied under various in vitro and in vivo conditions. activation of adenylate cyclase by shigella enterotoxin was observed only when substrate (atp) concentrations above the km of adenylate cyclase were employed. these concentrations of atp are greater than those required to demonstrate activation of adenylate ... | 1976 | 178569 |
pregnancy interrupting effects of some bacterial toxins. | embryotoxic properties of shigella dysenteriae and clostridium perfringens toxins, of e. coli endotoxin, v. cholerase and e. coli enterotoxins were compared in mice. e. coli endotoxin has embryotoxic effects at all stages of pregnancy. e. coli enterotoxin v. cholerae enterotoxin and shigella dysenteriae toxin are most effective mainly at earlier stages of pregnancy. clostridium perfringens toxin has no embryotoxic effect. | 1976 | 178014 |
evaluation of the antilipolytic action of clomiphene in vitro. | clomiphene (10(-3) - 10(-2) m) in a dose-dependent manner inhibited the lypolytic response of isolated rat epididymal adipose tissue and fat cells to epinephrine, acth, and dibutyryl-cyclic amp. furthermore, it reduced the non-hormonally stimulated activity of a crude preparation of lipase from epididymal adipose tissue. the accumulation of cyclic amp produced by epinephrine in fat cells was not prevented by clomiphene at a concentration causing antilipolytic activity. it is concluded from these ... | 1976 | 177345 |
[epidemiology of human and animal brucellosis in western africa. the results of six studies in the ivory coast, upper volta, and nigeria]. | brucellosis has a two-fold importance in public health: the transmission of the disease to man by contact with animals or ingestion of raw milk is of direct importance; of indirect importance is the loss of animal protein. the authors have carried out ten epidemiological investigations in different bio-climatic zones of west africa. more than 120 villages were evaluated. in each village, 100 persons were chosen at random and all or part of the animal population was also studied. three tests were ... | 1976 | 177324 |

huntington's disease--growth of fibroblast cultures in lipid-deficient medium: a preliminary report. | when skin fibroblast cultures derived from subjects with huntington's disease (hd) were grown in medium supplemented with lipid-deficient serum (lds), growth rates were less than those of control cultures. the mean percentage increase in generation times for nine control cultures incurred by using lds rather than fetal calf serum (fcs) was 8.0%. four cultures from 2 patients with hd failed to grow in lds but grew well in medium supplemented with fcs. in nine other cultures derived from 7 patient ... | 2003 | 152597 |
study of the kinetics of conversion of maternal plasma dehydroisoandrosterone sulfate to 16 alpha-hydroxydehydroisoandrosterone sulfate, estradiol, and estriol. | the transfer constants of conversion of maternal plasma dehydroisoandrosterone sulfate to estradiol ([rho]ds-e2bu) and to 16alphaoh-dehydroisoandrosterone sulfate ([rho]ds-160hds bu) and of maternal plasma 16alphaoh-dehydroisoandrosterone sulfate to estriol ([rho]160hds-e3 bu) were measured in women late in pregnancy. the mean [rho]160hds-e3 bu, 0.17, was considerably less than the mean [rho]ds-e2 bu, 0.29. however, the extent of 16alpha-hydroxylation of maternal plasma dehydroisoandrosterone su ... | 2003 | 152062 |
phage typing of nontypable isolates of staphylococcus aureus using the new phages 94, 95, and 96 and the heat-shock treatment. | of 2,144 isolates of staphylococcus aureus (from human beings in new york state) received in the authors' laboratory during 1975, 992 (46.,%) were nontypable with the use of the international basic set of bacteriophages. these 2,144 isolates were retested with the use of the recently added phages 94, 95, and 96. nearly 60% of the isolates were lysed with one or more of these three phages, including 64% of those previously nontypable, thus reducing the percentage of nontypables to 16.5%. one hund ... | 1978 | 152059 |

[method for simultaneous study of peristaltic and pendular movements of isolated rabbit ileum]. | a method is described for studying simultaneously the peristalsis and the pendular movements in the isolated pieces of rabbit ileum. at the same time, using this method it is possible to analyse the actions of drugs on the mechanisms which ensure the pendular movements and the propulsive activity, as well as their relationship. the method is relatively simple and only classical and commercially available equipments are needed. with this method the records and the volume of fluid expelled are sui ... | 1978 | 150905 |
comparative clinical pharmacokinetics of tubocurarine, gallamine, alcuronium and pancuronium. | data about plasma concentration, renal and biliary elimination of tubocurarine, gallamine, alcuronium and pancuronium are taken from the literature for synoptical pharmacokinetic analysis. all plasma concentration curves can be described by triexponential functions according to an open three-compartment pharmacokinetic model in line, the elements of which are an application and measuring compartment, a pharmacologically specific compartment and a non-specific one. the corresponding results for a ... | 2002 | 150804 |
hypersensitivity reactions to food colours with special reference to the natural colour annatto extract (butter colour). | it is well known that synthetic food colours especially some azo dyes can provoke hypersensitivity reactions such as urticaria, angioneurotic oedema, and astma (michaëlsson and juhlin, 1973, granholt and thune, 1975). natural food colours are scarcely investigated with respect to potential allergic properties. annatto extract, a commonly used food colour in edible fats e.g. butter, has been tested in patients. among 61 consecutive patients suffereing from chornic urticaria and/or angioneurotic o ... | 2003 | 150265 |

[tubal sterilization with a clip applicator under laparoscopic control]. | tubal sterilization with a clip or spring-loaded applicator under laparoscopic control reduces complications that appear in other forms of sterilization. the clip or spring-loaded applicator is inserted by means of a 2nd cut or insertion. this system has many advantages over the single cut or single insertion method as it permits much clearer vision and location of the tubes as well as the exact placement of the clips. the laparoscopic system of tubal sterilization is effective and the number of ... | 2003 | 149716 |
the multicomposite structure of tendon. | a revised morphological model for the crimp structure of tendon is presented. the 300-500 mu diameter tendons of the mature rat tail are comprised of from one to more than ten substructures, called fascicles, of 80-320 mu diameter. fascicles each possess a "crimp structure" demonstrable in the polarizing microscope and neighboring fascicles within a tendon usually exhibit crimp registry. the fascicle itself is shown to be a cylindrical array of planar-zig-zag crimped 500-5000 a diameter collagen ... | 1978 | 149646 |
changes in immunological activity of rat lymphoid organs during pregnancy. | immune reactivity in lymhoid organs of rats during the last week of syngeneic (lewis: l x l) or allogeneic (females lewis x males wistar: l x w) pregnancy was compared with that found in non-pregnant animals. the thymus weight was slightly reduced and the response of thymic lymphocytes to phytohaemagglutinin and concanavalin a was slightly, but not significantly, elevated in pregnant rats. by contrast, the response of lymphoid cells from spleen and mesenteric lymph nodes to the mitogens was redu ... | 1978 | 149623 |
