kinetics of glycerol uptake by the perfused rat liver. membrane transport, phosphorylation and effect on nad redox level.the kinetics of glycerol uptake by the perfused rat liver were determined according to a model which includes membrane transport, intracellular phosphorylation and competitive inhibition of glycerol phosphorylation by l-glycerol 3-phosphate. the membrane transport obeys first-order kinetics at concentrations below 10 mm in the affluent medium. the k-m of the glycerol phosphorylation was 10 mum and the k-i of the l-glycerol 3-phosphate inhibition was 50 mum. the maximum activity (v) was 3.70 mum ...1975164217
colchicine resistance in mammalian cell lines.colchicine-resistant variants derived from mouse and syrian hamster lines are described. the resistant cells do not appear to be true mutants, since they appear at a high frequency, unaffected by treatment with ethyl methyl sulphonate, and are unstable in the absence of the drug. they are cross-resistant to other drugs, show a reduced rate of binding of colchicine in monolayer, and give extracts with colchicine-binding properties identical to those of the wild type. thus the resistance is due to ...1975165207
influence of age and sex on carcinoma and cirrhosis of the liver in axc strain rats ingesting 0.025% n-2-fluorenyldiacetamide.inbred a x c male and female rats, 4, 12, 24, and 52 weeks of age, ingested 0.025% n-2-fluorenyldiacetamide in a semisynthetic diet. both age and sex were important in the development of hepatic lesions. the 4- and 12-week-old males developed a higher incidence of carcinomas and cirrhosis of the liver than did the females of the same ages or the males and females 24 and 52 weeks of age. four-week-old male rats had more carcinomas per liver, larger carcinomas, more poorly differentiated (as compa ...1975179045
cell-mediated immune reactions in vitro to cell walls and peptidoglycan from staphylococcus aureus.migration inhibition factor (mif) was produced by peritoneal exudate (pe) cells from guinea pigs sensitized with heat-killed cells of staphylococcus aureus cultured in vitro with staphylococcal cell walls or defined subunits of the cell walls. mif activity was assayed by inhibition of migration of alveolar macrophages from lungs of normal guinea pigs. specificity of inhibition was established using pe cells from tuberculin sensitive guinea pigs and tuberculin as appropriate controls. staphylococ ...1975126563
determination of some in vitro growth requirements of bacteroides nodosus.physical and nutritional factors required for growth of bacteroides nodosus isolates from ovine foot-rot lesions were examined. simplified anaerobic culture techniques were devised utilizing a fully soluble, autoclavable, liquid medium (tas) which contained proteose-peptone, yeast and meat extracts and certain other essential compounds required to promote prompt and serially transferrable growth of cultures from small inocula. the latter included trypticase, arginine, a reducing agent (most suit ...19751133574
effects of prostaglandins e-1 and f-2alpha on serum luteinizing hormone concentration and on some sexual functions in male rabbits.pge-1(50 mu-g/animal) and pgf-2alpha (250 mu-g/animal) caused a transient increase in serum lh at 5 min after injection. pge-1(250 mu-g/animal) had a biphasic effect on serum lh. a small peak was obtained at 5 min, and a second, larger peak at 60 min after injection. it is suggested that the first peak is a result of the stress associated with injection of the pgs, whereas the second peak represents a physiological effect of pge. subcutaneous injection of pge-1(1 mg in arachis oil b.i.d.) for 10 ...19751138302

biochemical and biological studies on the lipopolysaccharide of bacteroides nodosus.lipopolysaccharides (lps) were extracted from three bacteroides nodosus isolates by the aqueous phenol method and purified by ultracentrifugation. the structure of b nodosus lps appears to be similar to enterobacterial lps, with the polysaccharide component joined to the lipid a moiety through an acid-labile 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonic acid (kdo) linkage. b nodosus lps contained glucose, galactose, hexosamine, kdo and heptose and no sugars apart from ribose, which was possibly a nucleic acid contamina ...1977605298
recognition in great britain of bacteroides nodosus in foot lesions of cattle. 1977878236
selective medium for isolation of bacteroides nodosus.the sensitivity of bacteroides nodosus, the causative agent of sheep foot rot, to 24 selected antimicrobial agents was tested. many contaminants ordinarily associated with foot rot lesions were sensitive to lincomycin, whereas b. nodosus demonstrated resistance to this antibiotic. a concentration of 1 microgram of lincomycin per ml of basal medium optimally inhibited contaminants while allowing growth of b. nodosus. the basal medium was eugon agar with 0.2% yeast extract and 10.0% defibrinated h ...1977908746
the role of various antigenic fractions of bacteroides nodosus in eliciting protection against foot-rot in vaccinated sheep.sheep were vaccinated against foot-rot with various antigenic extracts of bacteroides nodosus and challenged to assess their resistance. the protective immunogen was shown to be a heat-labile, high molecular weight surface antigen which was removed by ultrafiltration and was either identical to or closely associated with the fimbriae of the organism. resistance appeared to be associated with the presence of a single high molecular precipitinogen distinct from the 0 antigen. agglutinating antibod ...1978625599
the occurrence, prevalence and transmission of bacteroides nodosus infection in cattle.following reports of findings of ovine foot-rot flora in the feet of cattle, a study was undertaken to determine the prevalence of bacteroides nodosus infection in the apparently normal cattle population. we found that 34.5 to 74.2 per cent of the animals examined on different farms had b nodosus present in one or more feet. b nodosus was not the most prevalent bacterium observed in smears from cattle. other gram negative species including fusiformis necrophorus and many gram positive cocci and ...1978674842
effect of age, weight and adequacy of zinc intake on the balance between alkaline ribonuclease and ribonuclease inhibitor in various tissues of the rat.1. deficiency of zinc inhibits growth and also increases the activity of alkaline ribonuclease in certain tissues of the rat (prasad & oberleas, 1973). zn could influence ribonuclease activity by direct effects on the enzyme or its natural inhibitor, or non-specifically as occurs when growth rate is affected by various other factors. these possibilities were studied. 2. alkaline ribonuclease was shown to be inhibited by zn in vitro, but the concentrations of zn required were so high that the enz ...1978415757
method of production of and antibody response to an oil adjuvant bacteroides nodosus bacterin.a procedure is described for the production of a highly concentrated bacteroides nodosus bacterin. an oil adjuvant bacterin which elicited the best antibody response in rabbits produced a response in sheep which lasted for at least 6 months.1978375151
calf liver nuclear n-acetyltransferases. purification and properties of two enzymes with both spermidine acetyltransferase and histone acetyltransferase activities.calf liver contains two nuclear n-acetyltransferases which are separated by chromatography on hydroxylapatite. both acetyltransferase a and acetyltransferase b will transfer acetate from acetyl-coa to either histone or spermidine. the same protein catalyzes the reaction with both substrates; this is shown by a constant ratio of spermidine to histone activity over a 5,000-fold purification and identical heat denaturation kinetics for both spermidine and histone acetyltransferase activity with eac ...197822543
the effect of induced hyperglucagonaemia on the zucker fatty rat.the effect of chronic treatment with a long-acting glucagon preparation on liver glucagon and insulin receptors, adenylate cyclase and plasma lipids has been examined in zucker fatty rats (fa/fa) and their lean littermates (fa/-). liver insulin and glucagon receptors were examined using radioreceptor assay techniques. neither fatty nor lean rats showed any change in insulin receptors after glucagon treatment. glucagon receptors of the fatty rats showed a 33% drop in the number of the glucagon re ...1978208903

bacillus of calmette and guérin and 7, 12-dimethylbenz(a)-anthracene carcinogenesis in mice.the effects of single or repeated bacillus of calmette and guérin (bcg) treatment on the onset of tumors induced by the carcinogen 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (dmba) injected at birth into swiss mice were studied. multiple doses of bcg, given at regular intervals significantly lowered the incidence of carcinogen-induced tumors. the dmba-induced lung adenomas did not differ morphologically from the ones that appeared in mice simultaneously treated with both dmba and bcg.197898879
[immunological relations between mother and child during pregnancy (author's transl)].the relations between the maternal and foetal organisms during pregnancy are partly very complicated and remain inexplicable. blastocyst, trophoblast, embryo and foetus have membrane antigens at a very early stage, and the immunocompetence of the foetus develops already during the second third of the pregnancy period. many non-specific factors are involved in preventing the castingoff reaction of the foetal organism. the trophoblastic tissue is probably of central importance. the focal point of ...197898927
[some aspects relating to the aflatoxin generation during the self-heating of cereals].in a stored batch of grain which was already affected by mould-formation tests were carried out with the known aflatoxin producer aspergillus flavus. a significantly lower aflatoxin production ensued if the mould growth was not connected with self-heating of the stored product. however, in conformity with increasing mould formation the germinating power was adversely affected and the significant signs (fatty acid number, reductive and none-reductive sugars) were influenced in the grain, irreleve ...197898933

structural determination of 'cord factor' from a corynebacterium diphtheriae strain by a combination of mass spectral ionization methods: field desorption cesium cationization and electron impact mass spectrometry studies.the composition and structure of a preparation of 'cord factor' (di-beta-hydroxy acyl trehaloses) from corynebacterium diphtheriae have been determined by a combination mass spectral ionization methods. the methods were tested by means of synthetic 6,6'-dicorynomycolate of alpha-d-trehalose prior to their use on natural products. the determination of the molecular weight of the components and the estimation of their relative abundance in the natural mixture were made by field desorption mass spe ...1978106902
igg1 and igg2 immunoglobulins to bacteroides (fusiformis) nodosus protease in infected and immunized sheep.sheep experimentally infected with foot rot developed antibodies that neutralized the proteolytic activity of bacteroides nodosus culture filtrates in vitro. similar antibody activity developed in sheep vaccinated against foot rot. in both cases the antibody was initially only associated with the igg2 fraction of serum, but with time there was an increase in the proportion associated with igg1. a subsidiary protein peak devoid of antiprotease activity was observed in elution profiles of affected ...1978569644
acetylated methylmannose polysaccharide of streptomyces griseus. locations of the acetyl groups.the positions of esterification of the 4 to 5 acetyl residues in the acetylated methylmannose-containing polysaccharide from streptomyces griseus have been established by the methyl replacement technique, wherein ester substituents are specifically replaced with methyl ether substituents. the newly incorporated methyl groups were distinguished from 3-o-methyl groups by the use of polysaccharide containing radioactively labeled endogenous methyl groups. the positions of methyl group localization ...1979107171
sarcocystinae: nomina dubia and available names.examination of the original descriptions of the species of sarcocystis in cattle, sheep, and swine, and of isosporid oocysts shed sporulated by dogs, cats, man, and other carnivores, has shown that it is not possible in most instances to identify unambiguously recently recognized taxa. the original descriptions are insufficient, and because no type specimens exist, could apply to two or more of the presently recognized taxa. we consider the following nomina dubia: sarcocystis hirsuta s. miescher ...1979107666
[lactic acid bacteria and streptococci of the human stomach normally and in pathological processes].lactic acid bacteria were either absent or present in negligent quantities in the stomach of apparently healthy man. but in case of various pathological processes in the stomach and duodenum lactic acid bacteria accumulated (up to a million cells per 1 ml of gastric contents). under these conditions coccal forms sharply prevailed over the bacillary ones. in patients with chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer of the stomach the most frequent were streptococcus faecalis and its variants; in oncologic ...1979107685
