spatial and temporal regulations in helicoidal extracellular matrices: comparison between plant and animal systems.this paper proposes an overview of the last few years' investigations regarding the helicoid formation in extracellular matrices (ecms). despite the architectural polymorphism displayed among the layered ecm throughout the living kingdom, helicoidal structures are often described in ecms and appear as an optimal mechanical device. helicoids correspond to complex two-phases composites, formation and regulation of which are still a source of debate. taking the time-event into consideration, it is ...20061636171
soft tissue sarcomas: experience with intraoperative brachytherapy in the conservative management.forty-eight patients with soft tissue sarcomas were treated with iridium implant after wide local excision between 1980 and 1990 at our institution. external irradiation was also given postoperatively in 33 patients with initially resectable tumours (treatment a) and preoperatively in 3 with initially unresectable tumours (treatment c); brachytherapy was the only treatment in 12 patients presenting small superficial tumours or recurring after previous irradiation (treatment b). median follow up ...20061622870
headspace flavour compounds produced by yeasts and lactobacilli during fermentation of preferments and bread doughs.production of volatile flavour compounds during fermentation with pure cultures of saccharomyces cerevisiae and candida guilliermondii, lactobacillus brevis and lactobacillus plantarum have been investigated, using wheat doughs and several preferements as substrates. for yeast, preferments consisted of 10% (w/v) glucose, maltose and sucrose solutions, whereas for lactobacilli they consisted of supplemented and unsupplemented (3% and 10% (w/v)) glucose solutions, and a 10% (w/v) wheat flour slurr ...19921622751
pharmacokinetic interaction between 1,3-butadiene and styrene in sprague-dawley rats.gas uptake studies were carried out to evaluate kinetic interactions between 1,3-butadiene and styrene in sprague-dawley rats. the animals were co-exposed by inhalation to a mixture of 1,3-butadiene between 20 and 6000 ppm (v/v) and styrene between 0 and 500 ppm. the data demonstrate that metabolism of 1,3-butadiene was partially inhibited by styrene. the inhibition was competitive at atmospheric concentrations of styrene up to 90 ppm. higher concentrations of styrene resulted in a small additio ...19921610292
occurrence of antinuclear antibodies in an unselected pregnancy population.the occurrence of antinuclear antibodies (ana) in an unselected population of pregnant women was studied by an indirect immunofluorescence method. six women out of 116 were ana-positive (5.2%), 2 of them having a moderately high titre (1:160 and 1:320) and 1 complement-fixing ana. the antigenic specificity of ana was anti-single-stranded dna in 2 cases and rnaase-sensitive anti-extractable nuclear antigen in 1 case. two of the ana-positive women had pre-eclampsia laevis and 1 had a premature del ...20061563653
external cephalic version and daily post-versional maternal self-assessment of fetal presentation. a prospective study.external cephalic version (ecv) using tocolysis is a widely recognized low-risk intervention in cases of breech presentation, particularly in areas where resources are scarce and the perinatal mortality is high in vaginal breech deliveries. in such a setting, pregnant women were trained to make regular self-assessments of the presenting fetal part after ecv in order to detect spontaneous reversions to breech presentation. it was found that such maternal involvement could significantly improve th ...20061563651
intrauterine resuscitation in the severely distressed fetal dog.severe fetal distress was produced in 16 fetal dogs by successive and/or prolonged occlusion of the maternal abdominal aorta in an acute surgical preparation, and was characterized in fetal arterial blood of 7.06 for ph, 10 mm hg for o2, 127 mm hg for co2, and fetal heart rate decelerations. five fetuses recovered spontaneously in utero and delivered normally; 3 needed maternal oxygenation before delivery; 3 suddenly died in utero; 5 fetuses were delivered while still alive in utero when the tph ...19921563650

inhibition of trypsin by t-butyloxycarbonyl-alpha-aza-(4-aminophenyl)alanine phenyl ester.t-butyloxycarbonyl-alpha-aza-(4-aminophenyl)alanine phenyl ester (iii: r = nh2) has been synthesized. the rate of inhibition of trypsin (ec 3.4.21.4) by this compound (due to acylation followed by slower deacylation) shows a marked ph maximum at approximately 6. the shape of the ph-rate curve is discussed in terms of (i) the normal ph-activity curve of trypsin reacting with a charged substrate, i.e. the protonated form of the amino compound, (ii) the deprotonation of the 4-amino group with pka 4 ...20061367228
reaction mechanism of glutamate racemase, a pyridoxal phosphate-independent amino acid racemase.glutamate racemase of pediococcus pentosaceus contained no cofactor, and was completely inactivated by a thiol reagent. the role of a cysteine residue in the enzyme reaction was studied by chemical modification. the modification of this cysteine residue resulted in a concomitant loss of activity. dl-glutamate protected the enzyme from inactivation. the inactivated enzyme was reactivated by addition of dithiothreitol. the racemization in 2h2o showed an overshoot in the optical rotation of glutama ...19921358877
[molecular bases of chronic granulomatous disease--analysis of the involvement of cytosol factors for nadph oxidase].during the past 5 years, the discovery of cell-free superoxide generation system (bromberg y, pick e: cell immunol 88:213-221, 1984) has been revolutionized our understanding of phagocyte superoxide generation. using cell-free system, it was clarified that nadph oxidase for superoxide generation was comprised of components present in both the plasma membrane as well as in the cytosol. this oxidase could be kept inactive by keeping its components separated from each other within the cell and then ...20051317471
concentrations of endothelial-cell-stimulating angiogenesis factor, a major component of human uterine angiogenesis factor, in human and bovine embryonic tissues and decidua.embryonic development involves the establishment of new patterns of vascular growth in the fetus and within the lining of the womb. a factor, human uterine angiogenesis factor, has been purified from the decidua and stimulates the growth of blood vessels in collagen sponge implants and in the chick chorioallantoic membrane. evidence is presented that suggests that a major active component of human uterine angiogenesis factor is an activator of latent matrix metalloproteinases, of low m(r), calle ...19921317450
on the mechanism of action of picrotoxin on gaba receptor channels in dissociated sympathetic neurones of the rat.1. the mechanism of action of picrotoxin on gaba receptor channels in rat sympathetic neurones has been investigated with whole-cell clamp. in addition, the action of picrotoxin on single gaba channels has been examined in outside-out membrane patches from these cells. 2. picrotoxin, at concentrations which dramatically reduced the amplitude of whole-cell gaba currents, did not alter the spectral time constants or single-channel conductance estimated by analysis of gaba-activated current noise. ...19921317428
tert-butyl hydroperoxide-induced radical production in rat liver mitochondria.when rat liver mitochondria are treated with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (tbhp) in the presence of the spin trap 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline n-oxide (dmpo), electron paramagnetic resonance (epr) signals are detected attributable to spin adducts resulting from the trapping of methyl, tert-butoxyl, and tert-butylperoxyl radicals. the addition of respiratory substrate results in a 3- to 7.5-fold increase in the signal intensity of the dmpo/methyl adduct, no change in the signal intensity of the dmpo/tert ...19921317326

[diagnostic problems of primary amyloidosis].surgical liver biopsy specimen of a women aged 58 with "biliary complaints" showed amyloid deposits of unknown nature. after a nearly two-years-course of the disease the patient died of cardiac and renal failure. clinical findings and laboratory tests without abnormal serum globulins suggested primary amyloidosis. morphologically amyloid was present in the heart, tongue, striated muscles and in many parenchymatous organs and endocrine glands. by electron microscopy no difference was revealed bet ...2003152408

[quantitative changes in the cellular makeup of the spleen in mice infected with the rauscher leukemia virus and brucella abortus].changes in the absolute number of splenic cells of mice infected with rauscher leukemia virus (rlv) and a day later--with living brucella (ba) were studied. the increase in the absolute number of splenic cells of mice infected with rlv + ba was initially caused by the lymphoid tissue reaction to brycella and then by the development of leukemia. the number of reticular cells in the spleen appeared to be larger than the control (rlv) within all observation periods; the number of basophilic normocy ...1979111416
[laboratory diagnosis of group d streptococcus].after taxonomic listing of group d streptococci, the authors discuss the methodology of the bacteriologic diagnosis of infections produced by these bacteria, showing the way in which the pathological products are collected, the strains isolated and seeded. the strains are identified in two stages: (1) group identification by group antigen identification, resistance to oxacillin, development at +45 degrees, development on bilaesculin media; (2) species and variety identification by biochemical, p ...1979111334
congenital hypothyroidism control programs. a cost-benefit analysis.comprehensive screening programs to control congenital hypothyroidism (ch), a preventable form of mental retardation, are being considered by some public health agencies. the proposed programs would test neonates' blood for thyroxine and, if warranted, provide follow-up testing and therapy. the estimated cost of detecting a single case of ch is $9,300, which includes specimen collection, laboratory analysis, and retesting of border-line cases. the present value of the treatment costs of ch adds ...1998108409

primary structure of a human iga1 immunoglobulin. iv. streptococcal iga1 protease, digestion, fab and fc fragments, and the complete amino acid sequence of the alpha 1 heavy chain.in order to establish the complete amino acid sequence of the human iga alpha1 chain bur, iga1 protease from streptococcus sanguis was employed to generate fabalpha and fcalpha fragments in the final stage of this investigation. cyanogen bromide cleavage of the fabalpha fragment followed by reduction and aminoethylation produced the fd' fragment (residues 84 to 227); this contains part of the variable region (vr), the whole first constant domain (calpha1), and part of the hinge region of this he ...1979107164
