| glycosaminoglycans in normal and atherosclerotic human coronary arteries. | glycosaminoglycans (gags) were studied in normal and atherosclerotic coronary arteries of 15- to 60-year-old finnish men who had died accidentally. the gags were fractionated and quantified with electrophoretic techniques. the contents of sulfated gags (micrograms/cm2 vessel surface area) increased continuously until 20 to 30% of the vessel surface area was covered with fibrous plaques, after which they started to decrease. the largest increases were seen in chondroitin sulfates a and c and derm ... | 1986 | 3083156 |

| histologic evaluation of response to implantation of polyvinilidine plates in dogs and rats. | the effect of implantation of polyvinilidine spinal plates was studied when placed on spinous processes of 11 mixed breed dogs and when placed within the thoracolumbar musculature of 12 male white rats. specimens were also obtained from soft tissues adjacent to polyvinilidine plates 2 to 3 months after clinical surgery to repair spinal subluxations in three dogs. a similar pattern of dense, organized fibrous tissue interspersed with focal congregations of lymphocytes, plasma cells, and multinucl ... | 1988 | 3067442 |
| lipid and lipoprotein effects on endothelial eicosanoid formation. | an important function of endothelium is to release pgi2, a prostaglandin produced from arachidonic acid that prevents platelet aggregation and causes arterial relaxation. small amounts of other eicosanoids also are produced, but their role in endothelial function has not been elucidated. much of the arachidonic acid present in the endothelium is obtained preformed from the plasma, either as ffa or from lipoproteins. arachidonic acid is efficiently incorporated into endothelial lipids even when o ... | 2011 | 3061005 |
| the function of superoxide dismutase during the enzymatic formation of the free radical of ribonucleotide reductase. | an enzyme system from escherichia coli activates an inactive form of ribonucleotide reductase by transforming a tyrosine residue of the enzyme into a cationic free radical. the process requires nad(p)h, a flavin, dithiothreitol, and oxygen and at least three proteins. after purification to near homogeneity two of the proteins were identified as superoxide dismutase and nad(p)h:flavin oxidoreductase (fontecave, m., eliasson, r., and reichard, p. (1987) j. biol. chem. 262, 12325-12331). the nature ... | 1987 | 3040738 |

| structure-activity relationships for steroid interaction with the gamma-aminobutyric acida receptor complex. | certain steroids are potent barbiturate-like modulators of the gamma-aminobutyric acida (gaba) receptor-chloride ionophore complex in rat brain membranes. at nanomolar to low micromolar concentrations, these steroids stimulate [3h]flunitrazepam and [3h] muscimol binding and displace the convulsant [35s]t-butylbicyclophosphorothionate from its binding site in an allosteric manner, in addition to enhancing cl- conductance responses to gaba recorded in cultured rat hippocampal and spinal neurons. a ... | 1987 | 3033209 |
