human very low density lipoproteins: loss of electrophoretic mobility on enzymatic removal of sialic acid residues.incubation of very low density lipoproteins (vldl) from three hyperlipoproteinemic patients with neuraminidase resulted in a progressive liberation of sialic acid residues. after the original sialic content had been reduced by approx. 75% a lipoprotein fraction having zero electrophoretic mobility on paper appeared. this fraction increased until, after the removal of all the sialic acid residues, the mobility of the entire vldl fraction was reduced to zero.1975165020
immune response of cattle to intranasally or parenterally administered parainfluenza type 3 virus vaccines.the principal significance of pi-3 virus in the bovine respiratory disease complex would seem to be its role in predisposing the respiratory tract to bacterial infection by (5) disrupting the integrity of the superficial mucosa and (3) producing a more favourable milieu for bacterial growth. attention has therefore been given to establishing local immunity to preclude infection of superficial cells of the mucosa. criteria used to evaluate the degree of such immunity are (5) presence of specific ...1975165124
local and systemic response after simultaneous intranasal inoculation of temperature-sensitive mutants of parainfluenza 3, ibr and bovine adenovirus 3.triple seronegative calves were exposed by the nasal route to three (ts) mutants of bovine respiratory viruses (pi3, ibr, adeno3). after a single exposure, they responded with significant levels of serum antibodies to the three viruses. nasal antibodies were demonstrated for pi3 and adenovirus antigens. the failure to demonstrate nasal antibodies to ibr may be due to lack of sensitivity of the procedure used. when reexposed six weeks later, calves had sharp increases in levels of serum antibodie ...1975165126
organ cultures of rat and hamster colon.human fibrin foam as a matrix for three-dimensional organ cultures was successfully employed for the cultivation of newborn rat and hamster colon tissue. colonic tissue was maintained under different oxygen atmospheres and with various synthetic media. explants of rat and hamster colon, maintained in leibovitz's l-15 medium buffered with hepes in the presence of 5% co2 and air, retained their normal columnar epithelial architecture for 24 days in culture. outgrowth of epithelial cells from colon ...1975165141
non-producer human cells induced by murine sarcoma virus.non-produces (np) human cells were isolated from transformed foci induced by the kirsten mouse sarcoma virus. these morphologically altered np cells produced neither infectious virus nor complement-fixing antigens of the murine sarcoma-leukemia virus complex. however, the sarcoma virus genome could be rescued from these nf cells by co-cultivation with cells carrying "helper" kirsten mouse leukemia virus or woolly monkey leukemia virus. the possible usefulness of these cells in efforts designed t ...1975165148
hydrophobic interactions of the apo-gln-i polypeptide component of human high density serum lipoprotein.apo-gln-i, the major polypeptide component of human serum high density lipoprotein, has four noninteracting hydrophobic sites which associate with alkanes, anionic detergents, and cationic detergents. hexane and octane bind to these sites with association constants of 6.8 times 10-2 and 1.8 times 10-4 liters/mol, respectively, and compete with the anionic detergent, sodium dodecyl sulfate (c12oso3-minus), at low detergent ligand binding ratios (i.e. smaller than or equal to 1.0 mol of c12oso3-mi ...1975165177
enterotoxins of escherichia coli and vibriocholerae: tools for the molecular biologist.with the independent discovery in several different laboratories that vibrio cholerae and heat-labile escherichia coli enterotoxins activated an enzyme (adenylate cyclase) in small intestinal epithealial cells to cause an enhanced intestinal secretion mediated by cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic amp), a molecular mechanism was provided for these disease states. as agents that also elevate intracellular concentrations of cyclic amp in virtually every mammalian tissue tested, the enter ...1975165247
long-term primary culture of mouse mammary tumor cells: production of virus.long-term primary cultures of mouse mammary tumor cells proved an excellent source of mouse mammary tumor virus (mmtv). virus purified from these primary cultures had the same morphologic biochemical, immunologic, and biologic characteristics as mmtv. quantitation of mmtv-protein equivalents released into the medium was measured by the radioimmunoassay for mmtv. peak production levels were 20-40 mug mmtv protien equivalents/75-cm-2 flask/24 hours. these cultures produced mmtv for as long as 90 ...1975165313

actions of a new muscle relaxant (ah8165) on neuromuscular transmission.the effects of a new muscle relaxant, ah8165, on miniature endplate potential (mepp) amplitude and frequency, endplate sensitivity to acetylcholine, and muscle twitch tension were studied in vitro in the frog sartorius muscle. nerve terminal effects were studied in vivo in the cat soleus muscle and its ventral root fibers. ah8165 stimulates the nerve terminal, as evidenced by increased mepp frequency and the appearance of post-drug repetitive activity. in the same concentration range at which me ...1975165756
the isolation of thymopoietin (thymin).the isolation from bovine thymus of two closely related polypeptides, thymopoietin i and ii, is described. these are considered to be thymic hormones, which physiologically induce the differentation of prothymocytes to thymocytes within the thymus. ths isolation of the thymopoietins was monitored not by their differentiative effects, but by a presumably secondary effect on neuromuscular transmission. this was discerned in experimental studies related to the human disease myasthenia gravis in whi ...1975165765

control of arrhythmias following ligation of the circumflex artery.in experimental work, three groups of 10 dogs each were subjected to ligation of the circumflex coronary artery. one group was given prophylactic medication with procainamide and another group was allowed a 2 hour interval between thoracotomy and ligation. the effects of these measures on the incidence of ventricular arrhythmias during the 30 minutes immediately after coronary artery occlusion were then compared. the two groups of animals on which these preventive measures were tested both showe ...1975166259
involvement of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide in the action of cholera toxin in vitro.nad is a necessary cofactor for the activation of adenylate cyclase (atp pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing), ec 4.6.1.1) by cholera toxin. lysates of certain types of cell that hydrolyze their endogenous store of nad after cell disruption respond poorly or not at all to cholera toxin. lysates of pigeon erythrocytes, which lack enzymes that degrade nad, provide a convenient and reproducible system for assaying the activity of cholera toxin in vitro and allow investigation of the mechanism of action ...1975166378
isolation of a glycogen synthase i kinase that is independent of adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate.three protein kinases (atp:protein phosphotransferase, ec 2.7.1.37) were detected when the soluble fraction of rabbit kidney medulla was chromatographed on deae-cellulose with a linear nac1 gradient. the first two kinases eluted (peak 1 and peak ii) were cyclic-amp-dependent, wheras peak iii was cyclic-amp-independent. a procedure was developed to separate the catalytic subunit of peak ii cyclic-amp-dependent protein kinase (representing the bulk of the histone kinase activity) from peak iii pro ...1975166380

pleiotropic effects of a dna adenine methylation mutation (dam-3) in escherichia coli k12.the dam-3 mutation results in a five-fold reduction in the number of 6-methyl-adenine (6-mea) residues in the dna of e. coli k12 or phage lambda. the dna of phage fd appears to be devoid of 6-mea when propagated on dam-3 bacteria. the phenotypic differences between dam-3 and dam+ bacteria include: (i) increased free phage in lysogenic dam-3 cultures, (2) increased sensitivity to methyl methanesulfonate (mms), (3) inviability of dam-3 lex-i strains, (4) lower molecular weight of dna in dam-3 bact ...1975167279
wound infection during the yom kippur war: observations concerning antibiotic prophylaxis and therapy.eighty-eight episodes of wound associated infection were identified among 624 consecutively admitted battlefield casualties. ninety-one per cent of infections occurred during the administration of antibiotic therapy or prophylaxis and 65% were associated with the use of multiple antibacterial agents. gram negative bacillary and mixed microbial infection predominated and were found to increase in relative incidence after the second day of hospitalization. appropriate therapy, based on disc sensit ...1975167666
stimulation of late interphase dictyostelium discoideum amoebae with an external cyclic amp signal.the microelectrode system described in the accompanying paper was used to investigate properties of fields of dictyostelium discoideum amoebae in late interphase. cells in the fields were competent to respond chemotactically to, and to relay, a c-amp signal, but not to produce an aggregative signal autonomously. the experimental results are generally consistent with c-amp being the sole compound required for chemotaxis and signal relaying. a periodic signal from the microelectrode can initiate a ...1975167879
adrenal cells in tissue culture the effects of choleragen and acth on steroid and cyclic-amp metabolism.primary cultures of mouse adrenocortical tumors provide a sensitive system for investigating the effects of the enterotoxin of the v. cholerae (choleragen) on cyclic-amp metabolism in the intact cell. like acth, the toxin stimulates the synthesis and release of steroids from these cells but its mode of action differs from that of acth. the steroidogenic response to acth is immediate and of limited duration. the initial rate of steroidogenesis is the highest. in contrast, the steroidogenic respon ...1975168056
the action of vibrio cholerae and corynebacterium diphtheriae neuraminidases on the sendai virus receptor of human erythrocytes.studies of the sendai virus haemagglutinin receptor on the human erythrocyte surface have confirmed that it involves 2 leads to 3 linked sialic acid. because the primary specificity of vibrio cholerae neuraminidase is for this linkage, it is able to compete with the virus for the receptor, to which it adsorbs strongly at low temperatures. corynebacterium diphtheriae neuraminidase, whose principal specificity is for a sialic acid linkage other than 2 leads to 3, does not easily remove sendai viru ...1975168311
antibody levels to parainfluenza, rubella, measles, and influenza a virus in children with polymyositis.the cf and hi antibody titers to rubella and measles viruses, the cf titers to influenxa a, and the hi titers to parainfluenza 1, 2, and 3 were carried out on the sera of 20 patients with childhood polymyositis and their matched controls. the titers for measles, parainfluenxa 1, and influenza a were slightly higher for patients than for controls. the control group had antibody titers to rubella and parainfluenza 2 and 3 higher than or similar to those of patients. strong patterns or significant ...1975168906

fetal calf serum alters cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate's effect on heme synthesis in vitro.an investigation of the effect of camp on heme synthesis of rat bone marrow cells revealed that at 10(-2) m this cyclic nucleotide inhibits heme synthesis and that optimum stimulation occurs at 10(-4) m. some unidentified constituent of fetal calf serum in the culture medium modifies the direction and degree of camp's effect.1975169145
the differential effect of cholera toxin on the lymphocyte stimulation induced by various mitogens.balb/c spleen cells (5 x 10(6)) were cultured in 1 ml of serum-free rpmi 1640 medium for 3 days in order to examine the effect of cholera enterotoxin (cn) and its spontaneously formed toxoid (cd) on lymphocyte stimulation. stimulation was assessed after addition of [3h] thymidine for the last 16 hours of culture. one microgram of cn per culture markedly reduced the baseline of [3h] thymidine incorporation and the stimulation due to phytohaemagglutinin (pha), concanavalin a (con a) and bacterial ...1975169198
effect of klebsiella pneumoniae enterotoxin on intestinal transport in the rat.the effects on intestinal transport of either a semipurified preparation of enterotoxin elaborated by klebsiella pneumoniae or similaryly prepared control material were tested by marker perfusion studies in the small intestine of rats. at a concentration of 2 mg/ml, the enterotoxin produced net secretion of water, na, and cl in both jejunal and ileal segments; hco3 transport was not affected. net secretion was evident within 30 min after intorduction of the toxin and was maximal after 90 min. th ...1975169297

ultrastructure of human bronchiolo-alveolar cell carcinoma.ultrastructural features were correlated with a series of special staining reactions in eight cases of bronchiolo-alveolar carcinoma. ultrastructural, all tumors were similarly composed of large cells with abundant cytoplasm and small nuclei in close contact with each other. straight membranes or complex interdigitations occurred within adjacent tumor cells, attached to each other by scattered desmosomes. microvilli or cilia abutted from free surfaces of the cells, and were noted in different st ...1975169987
genetic control of oncogenesis by murine sarcoma virus moloney pseudotype. ii. a dominant epistatic susceptibility gene.we have shown in the preceding paper that akr mice are highly resistant to m-msv tumor development, and that resistance is transmitted as a dominant character. in the present studies the tumor-response pattern of f1 hybrids between resistant akr and susceptible strains (c57bl/6, balb/c and b10br) following injection with moloney mouse sarcoma virus (m-msv) resembles that of the non-akr parent. segregation is observed in first backcross (bc1) and f2 mice, and the segregation ratios up to bc3 mice ...1975170220
mode of action of sodium nitroprusside on vascular smooth muscle.1. sodium nitroprusside is a potent relaxant of smooth muscles with a predominantly tonic response, e.g. rat aorta contracted by noradrenaline, angiotensin ii, phe2-lys8-vasopressin, bac1(2), or kc1, and guinea-pig tracheal smooth muscle contracted by carbachol. 2. smooth muscle preparations from the splanchnic region and with varying degrees of phasic contractility are less sensitive and develop tachyphylaxis (portal vein, duodenum of the rat) or are unresponsive to sodium nitroprusside (vas de ...1975170545
homology and relationship between the genomes of papovaviruses, bk virus and simian virus 40.a number of hybridization techniques have been used to assess the homology between the genomes of bk virus (bkv) and simian virus 40 (sv40). a noncontiguous set of homologous sequences has been localized primarily within the late region of the sv40 genome, and these sequences presumably account for the cross-reaction between v-antigens of the two viruses. the reason for the relatively strong crossreaction between sv40 and bkv t-antigens is still unclear. the sequence homology and similarity in g ...1975170606
[ultrastructure of human hepatocytes in early prenatal ontogenesis].the structure of hepatic cells was studied in 40 human embryos and fetuses from 4 to 16 weeks of intrauterine development. depending on the differentiation degree of organells and their amount in the hepatic cell of the embryo and fetus three types of hepatic cells are distinguished: slightly differentiated, transitional and differentiated cells. in the course of early prenatal ontogenesis the amount of slightly differentiated hepatic cells diminishes and the amount of transitional and different ...1975170891
on the mechanism of action of cholera toxin on isolated rat adrenocortical cells. comparison with the effects of adrenocorticotropin on steroidogenesis and cyclic amp output.the effects of cholera toxin on isolated rat adrenocortical cells have been investigated. both steroid and cyclic amp output from adrenal cells were increased by the toxin in a dose dependent fashion. the concentration of toxin for half maximal stimulation for both of these responses was about 40 ng/ml. maximal steroidogenesis and cyclic amp output was obtained with similar concentrations of the toxin. a correlation was observed between the low amounts of cyclic amp produced in response to all d ...1975170975
choleragen stimulates steroidogenesis and adenylate cyclase in cells lacking functional hormone receptors.choleragen stimulates steroid secretion and adenylate cyclase in three cell lines, adrenal tumor line (y-1), a corticotropin-resistant mutant derived from y-1 called os-3, and a receptor-deficient leydig tumor line (i-10). sensitivity for half-maximal stimulation varies from 3 to 36 pm choleragen, the i-10 line being the most sensitive. latency before the onset of steroidogenesis is longer in os-3 and i-10 cells than in the y-1 line. in both os-3 and i-10 cells choleragen stimulates adenylate cy ...1975172154
endotoxic lipopolysaccharides stimulate steroidogenesis and adenylate cyclase in adrenal tumor cells.lipopolysaccharides (endotoxins) from escherichia coli, serratia marcesens and salmonella typhosa stimulated steroid production in y-1 adrenal tumor cells in culture with a latent period of 3-4 h. lipid a, derived from escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide, also stimulated steroidogenesis. lipopolysaccharides and lipid a also stimulate adenylate cyclase activity and cause rounding of the cells. in contrast, lipopolysaccharides do not stimulate steroidogenesis in receptor-deficient adrenal tumor ce ...1975172155

the "otitis-prone" condition.we studied the incidence of exudative otitis media in 488 patients followed up from birth. forty-nine percent (240) of the patients had their initial episode of otitis media in the first year of life and only 12% (56) in the second year of life. thereafter, the incidence decreased steadily. patients having six or more episodes of otitis media before age 6 were termed "otitis prone". fifty-seven such patients were observed and this condition was found to be significantly related to the onset of o ...1975239591
method for detecting small numbers of vibrio cholerae in very polluted substrates.a method is presented for the indirect detection of vibrio cholerae by the multiplication of two specific bacteriophages: phih74/64 for el-tor vibrios, and phage group iv (mukerjee) for classical vibrios. the product to be examined is seeded in alkaline tryptone water for enrichment, as in the classical method, and is then incubated for 6 h at 37 c. thereafter, a loopful is transferred to each of two nutrient broth (ph 9) tubes. one of these receives a drop of phage phih74/64; the other receives ...1975239631
[characteristics of a mycobacterium mucosum culture oxidizing cholic acid].some physiologo-morphological and biochemical characteristics were studied with the culture of mycobacterium mucosum 1210 which can assimilate cholic acid as a sole source of carbon. this culture is capable of spontaneous variability. four variants of the culture were obtained which possessed different rates of the transformation of cholic acid. the variant which formed slimy colonies of pale-yellow colour was the most active. some morphological modifications of the cells were investigated in th ...1975240106
[michaelis constants of neuraminidases of pathogenic and apathogenic microorganisms (author's transl)].the km-values of neuraminidases from different pathogenic and apathogenic microorganisms have been determined on low and high molecular substrates. the substrate specificity and the affinity to the different types of substrates in relation to the pathogenicity of the microorganisms are discussed.1975241169
aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase in liver nuclei of c3h/he and dba/2 mice.aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity in liver nuclei from c3h/he mice is apparently increased by the administration of 3-methylcholanthrene, but the enzyme activity from the dba/2 mice is not. on the other hand, by treatment of the mice with phenobarbital sodium, the increased activity in liver nuclei was observed in both strains of mice. there are approximately the same levels of the apparent km for benzo[alpha]pyrene in liver nuclei from both strains of mice even after treatment with 3-methyl ...1975241681

accelerated cell death produced by a cholera cytotoxin on isolated epithelial cells from rabbit ileum.villus and crypt cells were removed from rabbit ileum by a modification of a method previously described. villus cells were isolated by vibration of everted bowel segments in citrate buffer, and crypt cells were removed by the expansion of these segments with air and simultaneous vibration in citrate buffer. several culture media were tested for the maintenance and/or culture of these cells. two defined media, eagle's minimum and medium 199, were unsatisfactory and led to rapid cell death. the p ...19744549039

an outbreak of cholera in australia due to food served in flight on an international aircraft.an outbreak of cholera occurred in november 1972 among passengers on an aircraft that had flown from london to sydney. the infection was confined to economy-class passengers and the available evidence indicates that it was due to a dish of hors d'oeuvres served on the aircraft between bahrain and singapore. although one person died, the infection was generally mild, and almost half of those infected were symptomless. there was a significant difference between the immunization status of persons w ...19744526408

cholera toxin and cell growth: role of membrane gangliosides.the binding of cholera toxin to three transformed mouse cell lines derived from the same parent strain, and the effects of the toxin on dna synthesis and adenylate cyclase activity, vary in parallel with the ganglioside composition of the cells. tal/n cells of early passage, which contain large quantities of gangliosides g(m3), g(m2), g(m1), and g(dla), as well as the glycosyltransferases necessary for the synthesis of these gangliosides, bind the most cholera toxin and are the most sensitive to ...19744530298
