studies on the mechanism of action of omeprazole. | the effects of omeprazole on preparations of pig gastric (h+ + k+)-atpase have been studied. omeprazole was found to inhibit the (h+ + k+)-atpase activity in a time-dependent manner. inhibition was more pronounced at ph 6.1 compared with ph 7.4 and decreased as the concentration of (h+ + k+)-atpase preparation increased. the potency of omeprazole was therefore highly dependent upon the conditions used. when pre- incubated with (h+ + k+)-atpase preparation (30 micrograms protein/ml) for 30 min at ... | 1985 | 2992525 |
thio-analogues of inorganic pyrophosphate inhibit the replication of influenza virus a in vitro. | mono- and bisthiopyrophosphate can inhibit the replication of influenza virus a/x49 in madin-darby canine kidney (mdck) cells at concentrations at which no cytotoxic effect is observed after 3 days. the thiopyrophosphate analogues inhibit the rna transcriptase activity of this virus possibly by chelating with an essential metal ion in the transcriptase complex. [31p]nmr spectroscopy indicates that bisthiopyrophosphate coordinates to zinc through sulphur and magnesium through oxygen which may inf ... | 1985 | 2990333 |
identification of apolipoproteins involved in the interaction of human high density lipoprotein3 with receptors on cultured cells. | human high density lipoprotein (hdl), devoid of apolipoproteins e or b, binds with high affinity and specificity to cultured cells derived from several tissues. in order to investigate the ligand specificity of the putative receptor, we have performed competitive inhibition studies to identify the components of high density lipoprotein that bind to cell surfaces of rat adrenal cortical cells and human skin fibroblasts. radiolabeled hdl3 was displaced with unlabeled apolipoprotein-dimyristoylphos ... | 1985 | 2982866 |

jaundice. clinical pearls and perils revisited. | i recount some clinical "pearls and perils" to help reassess the contributions of abdominal ultrasound, cholangiography, needle biopsy of the liver, and laparoscopy. abdominal ultrasound demonstrates stones in the gallbladder in approximately 98% of cases, but in only 15% in the common bile duct, whereas computerized tomography scan reveals them in greater than or equal to 50%. on cholangiography a blood clot (in hemobilia) may closely resemble a common duct stone, as may spasm or tumor of the d ... | 2003 | 2958535 |
subfractionation of human t lymphocyte subpopulations by partitioning: surface heterogeneity of the okt8/leu2+ t cell subset. | human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (pbmc) were subjected to countercurrent distribution in a charge-sensitive dextran-poly (ethylene glycol) aqueous two-phase system. cells are thereby subfractionated on the basis of their charge-associated surface properties. the helper/inducer t cell subset (okt4/leu3+) has a single distribution curve with a low partition ratio (p). in contrast, the suppressor/cytotoxic (okt8/leu2+) subset is clearly heterogeneous and gives two peaks, one with a lower an ... | 1987 | 2955975 |

chromosomal assignments of genes coding for human leukocyte common antigen, t-200, and lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1, lfa-1 beta subunit. | five hybrids reactive with monoclonal antibodies against human leukocyte common antigen (t-200) and/or lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 (lfa-1) beta subunit were obtained from the fusion of human blood lymphocytes or t-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells with bw5147 mouse t-cell leukemia cells. chromosome analyses of 20 clones showed concordance between the presence of human chromosomes 1 and 21 and the expression of t-200 and lfa-1 beta subunit, respectively. confirmation of human c ... | 1987 | 2955527 |
reca protein-promoted atp hydrolysis occurs throughout reca nucleoprotein filaments. | when reca protein binds cooperatively to single-stranded dna to form filamentous nucleoprotein complexes, it becomes competent to hydrolyze atp. no correlation exists between the ends of such complexes and the rate of atp hydrolysis. atp hydrolysis is not, therefore, restricted to the terminal subunits on cooperatively bound reca oligomers, but occurs throughout the complex. similarly, during reca protein-promoted branch migration (during dna strand exchange), atp hydrolysis is not restricted to ... | 1987 | 2951381 |
structure-activity relationships of sex steroid analogs determined in vitro in a thyroid hormone-responsive membrane ca2+-atpase model. | physiological concentrations of l-t4 were found previously to stimulate ca2+-atpase activity in vitro in reticulocyte membranes from female rabbits and to inhibit this enzyme in reticulocyte membranes from males. in these previous studies, preincubation of intact cells or ghosts with testosterone (5 x 10(-11) m) converted female-source reticulocyte membranes to male-type responsiveness to thyroid hormone (inhibition of ca2+-atpase activity). preincubation of reticulocyte membranes with 17 beta-e ... | 1986 | 2946570 |

dose-related effects of synthetic human beta-endorphin and naloxone on fed gastrointestinal motility. | in humans, plasma beta-endorphin levels rise during application of acute stressful stimuli (vertigo, cold pain, and transcutaneous electrical stimulation) that induce gut motor disturbances. whereas it is possible that circulating beta-endorphin participates in the mediation of these central effects on gut motility, its role cannot be established solely on the basis of changes in plasma levels. therefore, we designed the present study to investigate 1) the dose-related effects of intravenous syn ... | 1986 | 2942039 |
autoimmunity after induction of neonatal tolerance to alloantigens: role of b cell chimerism and f1 donor b cell activation. | balb/c mice rendered tolerant by the neonatal injection of semiallogeneic (c57bl/6 x balb/c)f1 spleen cells develop features of autoimmune disease. the possible mechanisms involved in autoantibody production, particularly anti-dna antibodies, were investigated. in the first 5 wk, there was polyclonal b cell activation, as indicated by marked hypergammaglobulinemia, with a predominance of igg1 and an increased production of antihapten antibodies. igg1 anti-ssdna and anti-dsdna antibodies were det ... | 2010 | 2940295 |

administration of gm1 ganglioside eliminates neuroleptic-induced sensorimotor deficits in mptp-treated mice. | injection of a low dose of haloperidol, that has no obvious behavioral effects in normal mice, produces akinesia, catalepsy, and sensory neglect in mptp-treated mice. gm1 ganglioside treatment eliminates all of these behavioral impairments and also partially restores striatal dopamine content. these observations suggest that the mptp-treated mouse may be a valuable model for studying mechanisms underlying parkinsonism and that administration of gm1 ganglioside may be an effective therapy. | 1988 | 2903475 |
