enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) for titration of antibodies against brucella abortus and yersinia enterocolitica.an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) using phenolwater extracted lipopolysaccarides as antigen was used for detection and quantitation of antibodies against brucella and yersinia bacteria in rabbit antisera. elisa was found to be from ten to hundred-fold more sensitive than the commonly used tube agglutination assay (widal). in addition, both direct and inhibition assays using elisa revealed antigenic differences between brucella abortus and yersinia enterocolitica o-group v, previously ...1976826112
pseudotuberculosis (yersinia enterocolitica) in the owl monkey (aotus trivirgatus).pseudotuberculosis caused by yersinia enterocolitica was observed as an enzootic disease of the owl monkey (aotus trivirgatus). a description is given of the natural disease and its successful reproduction in owl monkeys. the disease was characterized by purulent and necrotizing enteritis, hepatitis, and splenitis. large colonies of the causative organism were consistently associated with the lesions. although pseudotuberculosis has been reported in other monkeys, the disease in the authors' pri ...1976828225
subversion of host defense mechanisms by murine tumors. i. a circulating factor that suppresses macrophage-mediated resistance to infection.the subcutaneous injection of cells of any one of five unselected murine tumors resulted very rapidly in the liberation into the circulation of a small molecular weight factor that severely impaired the capacity of the host to resist experimental infection with listeria monocytogenes and yersinia enterocolitica. it was found that the factor appeared in blood within 8 h of injecting tumor cells subcutaneously. that it possessed potent physiological activity was evidenced by the demonstration that ...19761249520
the lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase reaction, lysolecithin and red cell ageing in blood stored under normal transfusion service conditions.the lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (lcat) activity and lysolecithin content of human blood stored under standard blood transfusion service conditions at 4 degrees c for 6 weeks has been investigated. cooling the blood to 4 degrees c rapidly inactivates the lcat reaction, but the enzyme is not denatured during storage under these conditions. citrate in the anticoagulant did not activate the lcat reaction in freshly-taken whole blood. the total phospholipid and total lysolecithin content of ...19761251568
yersinia enterocolitica in borwn trout (salmo trutta l.) from norway.in this pilot study, 20 brown trout (salmo trutta l.) from one area in western norway were investigated for the presence of yersinia enterocolitica (y.e.). three strains were isolated from three of these trout. all strains were classified as y.e. on the basis of biochemical properties. one of the strains showed antigenic relationship to y.e o-serotype 17. a second strain was antigenically related both to y.e. and y. pseudotuberculosis: agglutination against y.e. o-antisera 4-33, 18, and 21, was ...19761251738

the application of rapid kinetic techniques to the transport of thymidine and 3-o-methylglucose into mammalian cells in suspension culture.techniques are described by which the transport of nutrients into mammalian cells in suspension can be measured at intervals of 1.5 seconds. by application of these techniques, the existence of a saturable (km = 85 mum), non-concentrative, transport system for thymidine was demonstrated in novikoff rat hepatoma cells depleted of atp. at concentrations of thymidine less than the km, this system operated at velocities sufficient to nearly completely equilibrate intra- and extra-cellular thymidine ...1976188833
regulation of carbohydrate permeases and adenylate cyclase in escherichia coli. studies with mutant strains in which enzyme i of the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system is thermolabile.carbohydrate uptake and cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic amp) synthesis were studied employing mutant strains of escherichia coli in which enzyme i of the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system was heat-labile. partial loss of enzyme i activity, which resulted from incubation of cells at the nonpermissive temperature, depressed the rate and extent of methyl alpha-glucoside uptake. temperature inactivation of enzyme i also rendered cyclic amp synthesis and the uptake of s ...1976184083
cell coat in tumor cells -- effects of trypsin and edta: a biochemical and morphological study.the effects of trypsin and edta on the cell coat of ascites tumor cells were studied by means of biochemical and electron microscopy techniques. edta seems to release, by chelation of the ca2+-bridges, an outer layer of glycoproteins of presumably exogenous origin. on the contrary, trypsin produces a deeper enzymic cleavage which appears to affect the structural integrity of the bilayered cell membrane. the significance of the cell leakage in tumor cells and the effect of edta on the modificatio ...1976185564
ultrastructure of lipopolysaccharides of yersinia enterocolitica, salmonella typhimurium and escherichia coli.the fine structure of isolated lipopolysaccharides (lps) from the rough and smooth form of an yersinia enterocolitica strain (ye 75 r/ye 75 s) and from smooth forms of salmonella typhimurium (s 1010) and escherichia coli (essen) were examined electron-microscopically by negative staining. partial denaturation of lps in tris-buffer with acid and/or polymyxin b treatment revealed a common structure of strandlike lps. electron-microscopically, lps-strands were found to consist of two identical sub- ...1976185850
uridine--cytidine kinase from foetal and adult rat liver. purification and study of some properties.partial purification of uridine--cytidine kinase (ec 2.7.1.48) from foetal rat liver by chromatography on deae-cellulose gives two active fractions. the first in order of elution was identified as a form specific for foetal liver. it was purified 300-fold. the second fraction was common to foetal, and adult rat liver and spleen and was purified 20-fold. the foetal fraction of the enzyme was found to be heat-sensitive and protected against inactivation by po34- anions. the two isolated forms have ...1976186262
effect of cerebral injury on cerebrospinal fluid cyclic amp concentration.cerbrospinal fluid (csf) cyclic adenosine-3', 5'-monophosphate (camp) was measured in rabbits after experimental brain injury as well as in patients with cerebral contusion and cerebral concussion. in rabbits a marked elevation lasting for two weeks was observed. from the third week onwards after the injury the csf camp concentration was lower than the basal level before the injury. dexamethasone partly inhibited the elevation. ethanol treatment decreased the csf camp values. in man, the csf cam ...1976186266
effect of epinephrine on the oxidative desaturation of fatty acids in the rat.the effect of epinephrine on the oxidative desaturation of fatty acids by liver microsomal preparations of rats has been studied. administration of epinephrine (1 mg/kg body weight) produced a significant decrease in desaturation of [l-14c]=linoleic acid to gamma-linolenic acid and of [l-14c]alpha-linolenic acid to actadeca-6,9,12,15-tetraenoic acid 12 hr after the infection. lower doses produced a lesser effect on the delta6-desaturation activity. epinephrine administration modified the v max o ...1976186549
generation of superoxide anion and chemiluminescence by human monocytes during phagocytosis and on contact with surface-bound immunoglobulin g.extent of o-2-release and chemiluminescence, attributed to singlet oxygen, has been compared in human monocytes and neutrophils during phagocytosis, stimulation by the surface-active agent phorbol myristate acetate, or contact with aggregated igg in a model of immune complex disease. monocytes generated o-2-and chemiluminescence with each of the three stimuli, although values were significantly less than those of neutrophils from the same individuals. lymphocytes had no significant activity in e ...1976178824
nad+-malic enzyme. regulatory properties of the enzyme from ascaris suum.the regulatory properties of the nad-dependent malic enzyme from the mitochondria of ascaris suum have been studied. the malate saturation curve exhibits sigmoidicity and the degree of this sigmoidicity increases as the ph is increased. fumarate was the only compound tested that stimulated the enzyme activity, whereas oxalacetate was the most powerful inhibitor. activation by low levels of fumarate was found to be competitive with malate. it is proposed that this stimulation has physiological si ...1976180002
herpes simplex virus specified deoxypyrimidine kinase and the uptake of exogenous nucleosides by infected cells.herpes simplex virus can confer to thymidine kinaseless cells the ability to incorporate exogenously supplied thymidine into acid precipitable material. however no incorporation of exogenously supplied deoxycytidine into acid precipitable material can be detected after infection of deoxycytidine kinaseless cells by herpes simplex virus. this failure to incorporate exogenous deoxycytidine is not due to the failure of the deoxycytidine phosphorylating activity of the virus induced deoxycytidine ki ...1976180246
serum testosterone and dihydrotestosterone in patients with trophoblastic disease.serum testosterone (t) and dihydrotestosterone (dht) were measured by radioimmunoassay in 14 patients with unaborted hydatidiform mole and in 16 patients with normal pregnancy of similar gestational age. serum human chorionic gonadotropin (hcg) was measured by the radioreceptor assay in patients with hydatidiform mole. serum t ranged from 0.27 to 5.39 ng/ml with a mean +/- se of 2.21 +/- 0.45 ng/ml in patients with hydatidiform mole mole and from 0.20 to 2.40 ng/ml with a mean +/- se of 0.80 +/- ...1976180465
regulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase in rat heart. mechanism of regulation of proportions of dephosphorylated and phosphorylated enzyme by oxidation of fatty acids and ketone bodies and of effects of diabetes: role of coenzyme a, acetyl-coenzyme a and reduced and oxidized nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide.the proportion of active (dephosphorylated) pyruvate dehydrogenase in perfused rat heart was decreased by alloxan-diabetes or by perfusion with media containing acetate, n-octanoate or palmitate. the total activity of the dehydrogenase was unchanged. 2. pyruvate (5 or 25mm) or dichloroacetate (1mm) increased the proportion of active (dephosphorylated) pyruvate dehydrogenase in perfused rat heart, presumably by inhibiting the pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase reaction. alloxan-diabetes markedly decre ...1976180974

inhibition of estrogen-receptor-dna interaction by intercalating drugs.ethidium bromide, an intercalating drug, was shown to inhibit the in vitro dna binding of the uterine estradiol-receptor complex. the inhibition was reversible, dose dependent, complete for total saturation of dna intercalating sites by the dye, and proportional to the extent of intercalated drug. the binding of the receptor to phosphocellulose and poly(adenylic acid)-cellulose was not decreased by this drug. similar inhibition was also obtained with 9-hydroxyellipticine. denatured dna was more ...1976182199
testosterone-binding protein in reproductive tracts of fetal rats.testosterone-binding proteins may mediate the induction of wolffian duct differentiation by testicular testosterone. the presence of such protein(s) was sought in reproductive tracts of 14.5-21.5-day-old fetal rats. supernatant fractions (127,000 x g) were equilibrated with [3h]t) +/- radioinert testosterone in tris - hcl:edta buffer, ph 7.4, (approximately 0.1 mg protein/0.5 ml) at 4 c for 16 hours. bound and free (3h)t were separated by charcoaldextran adsorption or sephadex g-100 gel filtrati ...1976182453
in vitro behavior of human intestinal mucosa. the influence of acetyl choline on ion transport.the possibility that the autonomic nervous system may influence the function of intestinal mucosa was investigated by assessing the effect of acetyl choline on ion transport in human intestine. isolated pieces of stripped ileal mucosa were mounted in perspex flux-chambers and bathed in isotonic glucose ringer's solution. acetyl choline caused a rise in mean potential difference (8.8-12.3 mv, p less than 0.002) and short circuit current (287.7-417.2 mua-cm-2, p less than 0.01) (n = 12), observabl ...1976182722
steroid-binding proteins in carcinoma of the human male breast.receptor sites for a group of four steroid hormones were estimated by competitive binding assay of a biopsy specimen of carcinoma from a male breast. the results indicate that the tissue contained a significant number of binding sites for 17beta estradiol, and probably for dihydrotestosterone and progesterone, but not for testosterone. these preliminary data suggest that, as in the female, certain mammary carcinomas in the male may be under the influence of steroid hormones. correlation of such ...1976176884
carcinogenic activity of quinoline on rat liver.the effects of prolonged p.o. administration of quinoline or 2-chloroquinoline on rat liver were examined histologically. hepatocellular carcinomas and hemangioendotheliomas were observed in the livers of rats fed a basal diet containing 0.05, 0.10, or 0.25% quinoline for about 16 to 40 weeks. however, no neoplastic changes were seen in the livers of rats fed a basal diet containing 0.05, 0.10, or 0.25% 2-chloroquinoline for 40 weeks. in groups that received low concentrations of quinoline, the ...1976177193
[changes in the level of acth in the fetal hypophysis. a study in the rat toward the end of gestation].the isolated adrenal cell method for bioassay of acth was employed in order to determine the acth content of the hypophysis of the rat foetus, in late pregnancy. the acth concentration decreases between 17 days 8 h and 17 days 15 h, then it increases regularly until the term. this evolution is correlated with the change in the fluorescence intensity of the corticotrophs and with the modification of the adrenocortical activity.1976177226
the role of serum nonsuppressible insulin-like activity (nsila) in compensatory renal growth.the nonsuppressible insulin-like activity (nsila) of serum is defined as the insulin-like activity measured in insulin bioassays that is not suppressed by addition of insulin antiserum. the major part of serum nsila is attributable to a 90,000 mol wt trace protein which has been recently purified. this study was designed to evaluate the role of serum nsila in compensatory renal growth (crg).1976177337
coxsackievirus and adenovirus infection. association with acute febrile and juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.the prearthritic manifestations of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis in a 16-year-old boy were associated with a rise in coxsackievirus b3 and a9 neutralizing antibody titers from 1:16 to larger than or equal to 1:512, and 1:64 to 1:512, respectively. recurrent polyarthritis followed and has persisted for three years. adenovirus 7 was isolated from the pericardial fluid of a 9-year-old girl in whom juvenile rheumatoid arthritis then developed. of 11 patients with acute, nonspecific, febrile arthriti ...1976177792

the effect of increased brain gaba produced by amino-oxyacetic acid on arousal in rats.previous work has reported behavioral arousal in the rat to be inversely related to cortical gaba production. therefore the effects of an increase in brain gaba levels, induced by amino-oxyacetic acid, on measures of behavioural arousal such as rearing and ambulation were examined. the increase in gaba was immediately associated with decreased rearing, however the behaviour was later indistinguishable from control values while the levels of brain gaba remained raised. it was suggested that the r ...1976134388
allergic reaction to allopurinol with cross-reactivity to oxypurinol.a 25-year-old white man with gout and nephropathy and with a previous reaction to allopurinol was given a trial dose of oxypurinol. he developed malaise, a generalized erythematous reaction with edema, pruritus, and emesis; this was clinically identical to the reaction he experienced with allopurinol. when the patient's lymphocytes were exposed in vitro to oxypurinol and allopurinol, increased dna synthesis was observed, suggesting an immunologic basis for the reaction. this patient indicates th ...1976134655
[study of the threshold dose of penicillin which induces an epileptogenic focus during ontogenesis in the rabbit].a local application on the cortex surface of a very small drop of ringer solution containing penicillin was performed to establish the threshold dose required to elicit and epileptogenic focus and consequently the occuring latency of it. threshold doses are small (20 - 60 international units) and show a significant decrease during the maturation of the c.n.s. on the other hand latencies, whatever the animal's age, decrease fairly. the results are confronted to the various supposed modes of actio ...1976134784
[antigenic analysis and immunological studies of the uterotropic bacterial strains sh6 and 01 isolated from aborted cows].the uterotropic strains sh6 and o1 were studied immunoelectrophoretically to establish their antigenic relationship. the more readily diffusing component of the o-antigenic fraction of the strains proved immunologically identical with lpa of the r brucella organisms, while the slower component showed common determinants with the o-antigenic fraction of yersinia pseudotuberculosis. immunodiffusion revealed that the o-antigenic fraction of the o1 strain and lpa of the s brucella organisms contain ...197660821

a serial study of pregnancy proteins in primigravidae.the plasma concentrations from four 'pregnancy proteins' and three steroid hormones have been measured throughout pregnancy in 15 primigravidae. two of the proteins, human placental lactogen (hpl) and pregnancy-specific beta1-glycoprotein (psbetag), are specific for pregnancy and correlate well with the stage of gestation. it is suggested that measurement of psbetag may be useful in assessing feto-placental wellbeing. neither of the pregnancy-associated proteins, steriod-binding beta-globulin (s ...197657799
antigenic relationship between morganella morganii and yersinia enterocolitica.two new o antigens have been described for the morganella morganii antigenic schema. o antigens of the strains representing the new serotypes (o43 :h2 and o44 : h19, 37) are related to yersinia enterocolitica o9 and o17, respectively.197659520

yersinae isolated from wapiti (cervus canadensis roosevelti).yersinia enterocolitica and yersinia enterocolitica-like bacteria were isolated from 22 of 90 fecal samples taken from five herds of wapiti studied in northwestern california. the serotypes included: (5), (6), (11), (16), (2,19), (4,16) and (6,15). in one herd, all of the organisms were isolated from within a one hectare area. a significantly higher (p < .02) prevalence of isolations was obtained during april and may.197616498883
yersiniae in pond water and snails.a yersinia enterocolitica serotype 9 was isolated from pond water; y. enterocolitica-like bacteria were also isolated from pond water and from three species of snails (lymnaea palustris elodes, helisoma sp., oxyloma retusa) from the edwin s. george reserve in southeastern michigan. there was evidence for biochemical stability among some of the organisms over a period of years. there also was evidence of transmission of these organisms to snails from the water.197616502684

eye movement disorders in men with isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.the eye movement abnormalities in two men with isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism were studied clinically and electro-oculographically. both demonstrated striking saccadic dysmetria. subsequent neuroradiologic investigation confirmed atrophy of the cerebellar vermis in one of the patients. this is in concert with other midline structural abnormalities described in patients with isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and suggests that this syndrome may arise from a genetically linked developm ...19762190133
supercoiled dna energetics and dynamics by computer simulation.a new formulation is presented for investigating supercoiled dna configurations by deterministic techniques. thus far, the computational difficulties involved in applying deterministic methods to supercoiled dna studies have generally limited computer simulations to stochastic approaches. while stochastic methods, such as simulated annealing and metropolis-monte carlo sampling, are successful at generating a large number of configurations and estimating thermodynamic properties of topoisomer ens ...19761538391
