| local cerebral glucose utilization in normal female rats: variations during the estrous cycle and comparison with males. | the quantitative 2-[14c]deoxyglucose autoradiographic method was used to study the fluctuations of energy metabolism in discrete brain regions of female rats during the estrous cycle. a consistent though statistically nonsignificant cyclic variation in average glucose utilization of the brain as a whole was observed. highest levels of glucose utilization occurred during proestrus and metestrus, whereas lower rates were found during estrus and diestrus. statistically significant fluctuations were ... | 1985 | 4040921 |
| periosteal stress-induced reactions resembling stress fractures. a radiologic and histologic study in dogs. | an external callus is always associated with so-called stress fractures, but a fracture line cannot always be demonstrated by radiologic means. in such instances it is assumed that an undisplaced fracture or microfracture must nevertheless exist for an external callus to form. in this experimental study, 18 beagles were immobilized in a shoulder spica for periods of time ranging from 6 to 32 weeks and then remobilized. at the time of sacrifice, which varied from four to 28 weeks after remobiliza ... | 1985 | 4042491 |
| cryptococcal meningitis: presentation as sudden deafness. | a patient presented with a bilateral profound hearing loss of sudden onset following a two-month neurologic illness. microscopy and culture of cerebrospinal fluid revealed cryptococcus neoformans. treatment with amphotericin b and 5-fluorocytosine failed to restore hearing. auditory brain stem response and electrical promontory stimulation suggest a profound deafness with poor neuronal survival. this is consistent with previous temporal bone histopathology reports in individuals dying of cryptoc ... | 1985 | 4050983 |
| laminar origin of direct projection from cortex area v1 to v4 in the rhesus monkey. | direct projection from cortex area v1 to v4 in the rhesus monkey was demonstrated by means of retrograde axonal transport of wheat germ agglutinin-conjugated horseradish peroxidase (wga-hrp). this projection originated at the layers 2 and 3 of the only representation area of central visual field (0-6 degrees) in v1 and terminated at the central representation of v4, whereas there was no projection between the extracentral representations of v1 and v4. correlation of the present finding with the ... | 1985 | 4052788 |
| drastic improvement in the rectal absorption profile of morphine in man. | rectal absorption of morphine hcl from aqueous vehicles at different phs in man has been compared with an orally administered solution. plasma concentrations of morphine were measured by electrochemical hplc analysis after a single dose of 10 mg morphine hcl, in a cross-over study in 7 volunteers. rectal absorption of morphine was dependent on ph, which could be explained as being due to ph partitioning. the absorption rate and bioavailability could be greatly improved, as compared to orally adm ... | 1985 | 4054201 |
| [reactions of hypothalamic neurons to stimulation of the pelvic and sciatic nerves]. | unit activity of posterior, tuberal and anterior parts of the hypothalamus was studied during stimulation of the pelvic nerve in anesthetized and immobilized cats. comparative analysis showed that neurons of the posterior hypothalamus were more responsive (89.6%) and had a shorter mean latency (33.3 +/- 2.4 msec) than neurons of more rostral parts of the hypothalamus. the focus of maximal pelvic-induced unit activity seems to be located in the posterior hypothalamus. the unit responses of the po ... | 1985 | 4054386 |
| [dna synthesis in cultures of atrial and ventricular cardiomyocytes in the rat]. | by means of 3h-thymidine autoradiography dna replicative activity has been studied in cultured atrial and ventricular myocytes, and non-muscle cells from hearts of 2-week-old rats (age when cell proliferation in the myocardium is already significantly depressed). pas-reaction was used as a cytochemical marker of cardiomyocytes: atrial myocytes are richer in glycogen than ventricular cells. labeling indices of atrial myocytes after a 24 hour exposure to 3h-thymidine were higher than ventricular o ... | 1985 | 4060232 |
| age-associated alterations in hepatic glutathione-s-transferase activities. | age-associated alterations of hepatic cytosolic glutathione-s-transferase (gst) activities towards sulfobromophthalein sodium tetrahydrate (bsp), styrene oxide (stox), trans-4-phenyl-3-butene-2-one (pbo), 1,2-dichloro-4-nitrobenzene (dcnb), and 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (cdnb) were investigated in fischer-344 rats of both sexes with ages ranging from 1.5 to 28 months. the gst activities towards pbo and dcnb in male rats increased with age till 6-12 months when maximum values were attained, and ... | 1985 | 4062964 |
| effect of detergent on protein structure. action of detergents on secondary and oligomeric structures of band 3 from bovine erythrocyte membranes. | with special interest in the mode of action of zwitterionic detergents on proteins, a variety of detergents were examined for their ability to disrupt the secondary and quaternary structures of an anion transport protein, band 3, and its cytoplasmic 38 kda fragment from bovine erythrocyte membranes and for their effect on the binding of an anion transport inhibitor to band 3. nonionic detergents and chaps also acted as a nondenaturant in these instances, as well accepted for other proteins. thou ... | 1985 | 4063373 |
| convergence of influences from hypothalamus and locus coeruleus upon the olfactory tubercle. | the interaction of locus coeruleus (lc) and lateral hypothalamus (lh) stimulation upon the evoked potentials and unitary activity in the olfactory tubercle (ot) were studied. the difference in latency of the evoked potentials in the ot by lc or by lh stimulation seems to indicate that thin fibers compose the lc-ot pathway and that thick fibers compose the lh-ot pathway. the most common pattern of ot neuronal discharge was in bursts. the train stimulation of the lc decreased the ot neuronal disch ... | 1985 | 4063550 |
| an epidemic of acute diarrhoea in rural southern india associated with echovirus type 11 infection. | an epidemic of diarrhoea with two distinct waves affected a village of 1375 people in southern india in 1983. the first wave of the epidemic, from the last week of december 1982, had a sharp peak in january 1983 and was over by march. echovirus type 11 was isolated from patients, who also had a serum antibody response to the virus. during the second wave of the epidemic, from may to september 1983, the clinical features were different and shigella flexneri was isolated without significant viral ... | 1985 | 4067300 |
| fluorometric elisa method for rapid screening of anti-estrogen receptor antibody production in hybridoma cultures. | a micro-fluorometric elisa which required only 50 microliter of reagent in each step is reported here for rapid detection of anti-estrogen receptor (er) antibody production by hybridoma cultures. in this study, several factors which influence the sensitivity of elisa, e.g., incubation time, substrates, microtiter plates, concentration of coating antigens, choice and concentration of specific antibody and enzyme were evaluated. we observed that micro-fluorometric elisa using 4-methylumbelliferyl ... | 1985 | 4067317 |
| ledantec virus: identification as a rhabdovirus associated with human infection and formation of a new serogroup. | ledantec virus, originally recovered in 1965 from a patient with a febrile illness in senegal, was observed by thin section electron microscopy to be bullet-shaped, representative of members of the rhabdovirus group, with mean dimensions of 164 x 78 nm. particles were observed budding from the plasma membrane and moderate numbers accumulated in the intercellular spaces. in three mammalian cell lines, ledantec virus was rapidly cytopathic and replicated to moderately high titres. in complement fi ... | 1985 | 4067583 |
| classically conditioned hyperglycemia in the obese mouse. | the obese (c57bl/6j ob/ob) mouse is a commonly used animal model of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. it has recently been demonstrated that this mouse is not consistently hyperglycemic, however, unless it is subjected to environmental stress. in the present study, hyperglycemia in obese mice was induced by classical conditioning. obese diabetic mice and lean control animals were exposed to shaking stress. all animals developed hyperglycemia in response to shaking. to demonstrate classica ... | 1985 | 4070525 |

| temperature-dependent expression of virulence genes in shigella species. | the pathogenicity of shigella spp. involves the ability of the bacteria to penetrate and replicate within the epithelial cells of the large intestine. model systems for examining the virulence of shigellae employ henle intestinal epithelial cells in tissue culture and an in vivo assay for virulence in guinea pig eyes (sereny test). using these systems, we studied the genetic and physiological bases for the ability of shigellae to invade epithelial cells. we found that expression of virulence in ... | 1984 | 6360895 |
| loss of pigmentation in shigella flexneri 2a is correlated with loss of virulence and virulence-associated plasmid. | in this study, we examined the relationship between the virulence of shigella flexneri 2a and the ability of strains of s. flexneri 2a to absorb congo red. spontaneous nonpigmented (i.e., unable to bind congo red [pcr-]) derivatives of a virulent, pigmented (pcr+) strain of s. flexneri 2a were isolated and assayed for virulence as determined by their ability to invade epithelial cells. all pcr- mutants examined lost the ability to invade epithelial cells and were thus avirulent. agarose gel elec ... | 1984 | 6360906 |
| splenic abscess caused by shigella flexneri and bacteroides fragilis. | we report a case of splenic abscess from which only shigella flexneri (serotype 1a) and bacteroides fragilis were isolated. the patient was a 59-year-old diabetic female who displayed minimal gastrointestinal symptoms. the s. flexneri isolate was resistant to chloramphenicol and tetracycline. the possible synergistic relationship between the two organisms is discussed. | 1984 | 6361064 |
