| cerebral cyst infection with micrococcus sedentarius. case report. | a 7-year-old boy with congenital hydrocephalus and a left septate cerebral cyst presented with a shunt infection due to micrococcus sedentarius, resistant to all penicillins. the shunt infection was persistent despite several courses of parenteral, intraventricular, and intracyst antibiotics. evaluation of the ventricular fluid revealed adequate "killing power" against the patient's microorganism. no extracranial focus of infection could be found. computerized tomographic scanning, along with ai ... | 1980 | 7350273 |
| a comparative examination of the in vitro metabolism of five cyclopenta[a]phenanthrenes of varying carcinogenic potential. | metabolites of 15,16-dihydrocyclopenta[a]phenanthren-17-one and its 1- and 12-methyl homologues (all non-carcinogens) along with those from the 11-methyl and 11,12-dimethyl-17-ketones (carcinogens), produced in vitro by hepatic microsomes from methylcholanthrene induced rats, were separated by reverse phase h.p.l.c. identifications of individual metabolites were based upon elution times, u.v. spectra, and in some cases by mass spectrometry, circular dichroism, and identity with synthetic derivat ... | 1985 | 4017190 |
| a rapid assay for activity of phospholipase a2 using radioactive substrate. | a rapid method for the assay of phospholipase a2 has been developed using a radioactive substrate, l-alpha-dipalmitoyl-(2-[9,10(n)-3h]palmitoyl)-phosphatidylcholine. the substrate diluted with cold carrier (1 mm) is dissolved in 80% ethanol containing 25 mm sodium deoxycholate. the enzymatic reaction is performed in 1.0 ml 0.1 m glycine-naoh buffer, ph 9.0, containing 2 mumol cacl2, 10 micrograms bovine serum albumin, 2.5 mumol sodium deoxycholate, 0.01 unit (or less) phospholipase a2, and 40-10 ... | 1986 | 3755302 |
| thyrocyte hla class ii expression and regulation in relation to thyroid autoimmunity. | the occurrence of hla class ii expression by thyroid (and other endocrine) epithelia in autoimmune diseases suggests that these cells may facilitate their own destruction by immunogenically presenting autoantigens. this is supported by the findings that class ii+ thyrocytes can specifically stimulate virus-specific and autoreactive t cell clones, and that class ii expression by thyrocytes correlates with the occurrence of thyroid autoantibodies. a variety of factors may contribute to the regulat ... | 1987 | 3497511 |
| pitted keratolysis. the role of micrococcus sedentarius. | though pitted keratolysis of the foot is generally viewed to be caused by bacteria, there is confusion regarding the identity of the causative organism. species of corynebacterium, actinomyces, dermatophilus, and micrococcus have been proposed by various investigators. we have studied eight cases of pitted keratolysis and have cultured an organism identified as micrococcus sedentarius on the basis of colonial morphology, micromorphology, biochemical reactions, and chemical analysis of whole-cell ... | 1987 | 3310909 |
| bovine papillomavirus transcriptional regulation: localization of the e2-responsive elements of the long control region. | the long control region (lcr) of the bovine papillomavirus type 1 genome can function as a conditional transcriptional enhancer which can be specifically trans-activated by the viral e2 gene product. to precisely map the target(s) of this trans-activation, bal 31 exonuclease was used to generate two overlapping series of deleted dna segments through the lcr. these fragments were assayed for their ability to activate transcription from the enhancer-deleted simian virus 40 early promoter of pa10ca ... | 1987 | 3035214 |
| [primary leiomyosarcoma of the pulmonary artery. apropos of a case]. | a case of leiomyosarcoma of the pulmonary artery in a 64-year old man without previous cardiovascular disease is reported. the clinical picture, which comprised episodes of paroxysmal dyspnoea associated with acute cor pulmonale, suggested pulmonary embolism. radioisotope perfusion study and pulmonary angiography seemed to confirm this diagnosis, but no improvement was obtained with a prolonged thrombolytic treatment. the presence of a median mass at ct led to exploratory thoracotomy and to the ... | 1987 | 3122693 |
| structure-activity relationships of recombinant human interleukin 2. | structure-activity relationships of recombinant human interleukin 2 were investigated by preparation, purification, and characterization of 21 missense mutants. a key role for residue phe42 in the high-affinity interaction with receptor was indicated by (a) the reduction of 5-10-fold in binding affinity and bioactivity upon mutation of this residue to ala and (b) the lack of evidence for conformational perturbation in phe42----ala in comparison with the wild-type protein as investigated by intri ... | 1988 | 3264184 |
| hemorrhagic shock induces bacterial translocation from the gut. | sepsis and multiple organ failure are common after hemorrhagic shock. the goal of the current experiments was to determine whether hemorrhagic shock would promote the translocation of bacteria from the gut to visceral organs. twenty-four hours after being subjected to sham shock, or 30, 60, or 90 minutes of shock (30 mm hg), rats were sacrificed and their organs quantitatively cultured for translocating bacteria. there was a direct relationship between the duration of hemorrhagic shock and the 2 ... | 1988 | 3294427 |
| antibody-dependent cell-mediated growth inhibition of rat thyroid cells, frtl-5, in patients with autoimmune thyroid diseases. | we studied antibody-dependent mononuclear cell-mediated growth inhibition of thyroid cells in 18 untreated patients with graves' disease, 18 patients with chronic thyroiditis, and 15 normal subjects by measuring the ability of their sera to inhibit [3h]thymidine incorporation into dna in a rat thyroid cell line, frtl-5, in the presence of normal mononuclear cells. [3h]thymidine incorporation was significantly inhibited in the presence of sera from patients with graves' disease and chronic thyroi ... | 1988 | 3400407 |
| evaluation of teicoplanin for treatment of endocarditis caused by gram-positive cocci in 20 patients. | teicoplanin, a new glycopeptide antibiotic similar to vancomycin, was evaluated for the treatment of bacterial endocarditis in an open multicenter study from may 1985 to august 1987. a total of 20 patients with positive blood culture endocarditis received teicoplanin once daily as a mean intravenous injection of 7.3 mg/kg of body weight (range, 4.8 to 10.6 mg/kg); in 17 patients, teicoplanin was combined with another antibiotic, usually an aminoglycoside. the mean duration of therapy was 28 days ... | 1989 | 2527483 |
| microbial ecology of interdigital infections of toe web spaces. | the microbial flora of normal and macerated interdigital toe web spaces was qualitatively and quantitatively identified in 77 patients. dermatophyte fungi were recovered from 11% of normal patients compared with a 31% recovery from patients with macerated interspaces. macerated interspaces were characterized by a greater recovery of organisms with pathogenic potential, with staphylococcus aureus recovered from 36% of patients, micrococcus sedentarius in 37%, brevibacterium epidermidis in 54%, co ... | 1990 | 2319017 |
| the effect of dilution rate and ph on biomass and proteinase production by micrococcus sedentarius grown in continuous culture. | micrococcus sedentarius, an organism associated with pitted keratolysis, produced two proteinases in culture supernatant fluids, as shown by non-denaturing page with overlaying with a casein substrate. a mixture had optimal activity at ph 10 with azocasein substrate. at ph 7.1 and 8.1 in continuous culture with varying dilution rates high proteinase production occurred at relative specific growth rates (mu rels) 0.39 and 0.77 and biomass concentrations decreased with increasing dilution rate. on ... | 1992 | 1618719 |
| taxonomic dissection of the genus micrococcus: kocuria gen. nov., nesterenkonia gen. nov., kytococcus gen. nov., dermacoccus gen. nov., and micrococcus cohn 1872 gen. emend. | the results of a phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic analysis of the genus micrococcus indicated that it is significantly heterogeneous. except for micrococcus lylae, no species groups phylogenetically with the type species of the genus, micrococcus luteus. the other members of the genus form three separate phylogenetic lines which on the basis of chemotaxonomic properties can be assigned to four genera. these genera are the genus kocuria gen. nov. for micrococcus roseus, micrococcus varians, and mi ... | 1995 | 7547287 |
| kytococcus sedentarius (formerly micrococcus sedentarius) and dermacoccus nishinomiyaensis (formerly micrococcus nishinomiyaensis) produce monensins, typical streptomyces cinnamonensis metabolites. | the environmental isolate kytococcus sedentarius tr-2 was found to be a new producer of the oligoketide antibiotics monensin a and b. electron microscopic studies demonstrated that the tr-2 strain had coccoid cells and dna analysis revealed no close relationship to streptomyces cinnamonensis, a typical monensin producer. production of monensins was also proven with six culture collection k. sedentarius strains and three dermacoccus nishinomiyaensis strains. the secondary metabolism of micrococci ... | 1998 | 9933918 |
| [study on the inhibitory activity, in vitro, of baicalein and baicalin against skin fungi and bacteria]. | in this paper, we concentrated in examining, in vitro, the antiseptic activity of the baicalein and baicalin upon the seventeen pathogenic skin fungal and sixteen skin bacterial strains, these two flavonic compounds were known principally as the biosubstances of a traditional chinese medicinal plant: scutellaria baicalensis. in agar media, the baicalein possessed potent specific activity against the pathogenic yeasts with mics of 70-100 micrograms/ml; but in the same condition, no inhibitory eff ... | 2000 | 12575154 |
