the cathode bound group antigen of dysentery-provoking escherichieae (author's transl).antigens from disrupted cells of dysentery-provoking and of non-enteropathogenic escherichieae were submitted to immunoelectrophoresis on cellulose acetate stripes at ph 8.0. among 6 immune sera produced for this purpose by immunizing rabbits against desintegrated dysentery bacteria, only one contained a precipitine reacting with an antigen similar to the "generic antigen" of belaya. this - at ph 8.0 - cathode-bound group antigen (kga) could not only be found in virulent but also in 5 attenuated ...1975873
use of lincomycin, methicillin and ristomycin in the nutrient media for isolating pathogenic intestinal microorganisms.elective-differentiating solid nutrient media for simultaneous isolation of vibrioes, salmonella and shigella were developed. antibiotics active against grampostive microflora and dry bile salts inhibiting the growth of proteus were used as the inhibitors of the growth of the accompanying microflora. the medium was lincomycin and the bile salts may be prepared in a dry form.19752096
lactulose therapy in shigella carrier state and acute dysentery.antibiotic-resistant shigella are increasingly prevalent. lactulose, a non-absorbable disaccharide, was investigated as an alternative therapy for shigella infection on the hypothesis that the short-chain fatty acids (inhibitory to shigella) resulting from metabolism of lactulose by normal colonic flora would diminish shigella excretion. a long-term antibiotic-refractory carrier (large bowel) excreting 10(4) to 10(7)shigella sonnei/g of feces was given two courses of lactulose (of 24 and 16 days ...19752098
comparative in vitro studies of cinoxacin, nalidixic acid, and oxolinic acid.cinoxacin and nalidixic acid were found to be similar in in vitro activity against 138 shigella isolates and somewhat less active than oxolinic acid on a weight basis. cross-resistance developed when 10 shigellae were transferred on increasing amounts of the respective agent contained in mueller-hinton agar. plate dilution studies of the effect of changes in agar ph on the minimum inhibitory concentration revealed that the antibacterial activity increased with decreasing ph. protein binding inve ...197612717
kallikrein inhibitors in rat plasma.the kallikrein inhibitor contents of human and animal plasma were determined with glandular kallikreins ec 3.4.21.8. one ml of plasma could inactivate 20-700 kallikrein units (ku). rat plasma was the most potent and inactivated 230-700 ku. however, no enzyme capable of inactivating kallikrein could be found in this plasma. two fractions which inhibited hog pancreatic kallikrein, a fraction corresponding to alpha2-macroglobulin and a fraction which was eluted prior to albumin, were separated from ...197714935
purification and characterization of a plasminogen activator secreted by cultured human pancreatic carcinoma cells.a plasminogen activator secreted by cultured human pancreatic carcinoma (mia paca-2) cells has been purified to apparent homogeneity by procedures including sepharose-l-arginine methyl ester affinity chromatography, sephadex g-200 gel filtration, isoelectric focusing, and sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. the plasminogen activator shares many properties with urokinase including: molecular weight (55 000), isoelectric point (8.7), heat stability (60 degrees c, 30 min), ph stability (1.5 ...197715590
acute bacteremia in asplenic renal transplant patients.four cases of overwhelming bacteremia were observed in asplenic renal transplant patients 12 to 20 months after transplantation. the bacteriologic findings and presentation of these infections are characteristic of post-splenectomy sepsis reported in nontransplant patients. it is suggested that the absence of the spleen, more than immunosuppression with azathioprine and prednisone, predisposes to these late, uncommon infections after transplantation.197716144
identification of essential histidine residues of aminoacylase by photooxidation and by reaction with diethylpyrocarbonate.state and function of the histidine residues of aminoacylase were investigated by photoxidation in the presence of methylene blue and by chemical modification with diethylpyrocarbonate. complete inactivation of the enzyme was observed after oxidation of 4 histidine residues. from the ph dependence of the photooxidation it becomes evident that the inactivation of the enzyme is not a consequence of the simultaneous oxidation of tryptophan residues. the enzyme is also inactivated by chemical modifi ...197717959

drug effects on blood pressure and heart rate in unanesthetized animals. (1). effects of beta-blocking agents (author's transl).beta-blocking actions of orally administered kö 1400 and tiprenolol, new beta-blocking agents, were studied in unanesthetized rats and dogs, using a fall of blood pressure and an increase in heart rate produced by isoproterenol as a measure of beta-receptor activation. blood pressure was recorded from the aorta of the dog and the caudal artery of rat via indwelling catheter, and heart rate of the dog was recorded by a cardiotachometer triggered by r waves of the lead ii electrocardiogram. mean r ...197720392
liver enzyme adaptation after lithium administration in handled and nonhandled rats.we have examined the interaction of lithium administration and the infant stimulation procedure of handling on hormonally regulated enzymes of liver. animals handled in infancy show an increased morning corticosterone level in response to lithium feeding and markedly elevated serum glucose during refeeding following a two day fast, when compared to non-handled control animals. lithium alters serum corticosterone both in response to the stress of fasting, and during the diurnal cycle following gl ...197721840
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 metabolism of 4-14c-pregnenolone in tissue sections of human ovaries and their modification by chlormadinone acetate].in vitro incubations with slices of two normal human ovaries and 4-14c-pregnenolone as precursor were carried out to study the possibility of a direct influence of chlormadinone acetate on the metabolism of pregnenolone. in agreement with our previous studies the incubations of the ovary from the follicle phase of the cycle yields a profile of steroids different from that of the ovary from the corpus luteum phase of the cycle. under the experimental condition chosen, the presence of enzymes of ...197558782
the cutaneous reactions to kallikrein, prostaglandin and thurfyl nicotinate in chronic urticaria and the effect of polyphloretin phosphate.the erythema and wealing resulting from the application of thurfyl nicotinate ointment (trafuril) and from the inoculation of kallikrein has been studied in patients with chronic urticaria and normal controls. polyphloretin phosphate (ppp) suppressed the reaction in controls but in patients with urticaria it increased the reactions to trafuril and had little effect on the kallikrein reaction. ppp also suppressed the pge2-induced erythma in normal controls but not in urticaria patients. in a sepa ...197659506
studies on the pathogenesis of enteric infections caused by invasive bacteria.salmonellae, shigellae and some escherichia coli must invade the intestinal epithelial cell and multiply within the mucosa to cause disease. although the bacterial cell most likely possesses several properties essential to this invasive ability, the nature of the cell envelope complex is at present the only characteristic which has been implicated in this process. while a number of pathophysiological events result from invasion, some of our recent efforts have concerned the site and mechanism of ...197662646
[several allergic reactions under conditions of functioning of an inhibitor of antibody activity in the body].allergization under conditions of functioning an inhibitory factor in the organism was studied by the reaction of leukocytolysis with tsuverkalov's dysenterin and in the reproduction of hypersensitivity of the immediate type on the schultz-dale's model. it was shown that in functioning an inhibitory factor in the organism the degree of leukocytolysis reaction with the dysentery allergen decreased in the immunized animals in parallel with the fall in the serum antibody activity. a depression of t ...197765882

antigenic heterogeneity of the non-serogroup antigen structure of neisseria gonorrhoeae lipopolysaccharides.studies of the antigenic structure of the polysaccharide component of gonococcal lipopolysaccaride (lps) indicated that the non-serogroup antigen structure is antigenically heterogeneous. immunodiffusion studies of gc4 strain 8551 indicated that in addition to the gc serogroup determinent, this polysaccharide contains two other sets of determinants, one which is shared with the other five gc serogroups and a second which is shared by the gc1 and gc3 serogroups. enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ...197993575
abortive expression of the epstein-barr virus (ebv) cycle in a variety of ebv dna-containing cell lines, as reflected by nucleic acid hybridization in situ.a variety of epstein-barr virus (ebv) dna-containing cell lines have been tested for the expression of the ebv-associated antigens ebna (nuclear antigen), ea (early antigen), and vca (viral capsid antigen), and for the presence of cells containing disproportionate amounts of ebv dna. the antigen tests utilized immunofluorescence and 125i-labelled antibodies combined with autoradiography. ebv-dna was detected by in situ hybridization with 3h-labelled ebv rna complementary to p3hr-1 ebv dna (p-ebv ...197993584
characteristics and genetic control of nk-cell-mediated cytotoxicity activated by naturally acquired infection in the mouse.most and perhaps all natural-cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ncmc) may be activated by a response to exogenous infections. specific-pathogen-free (spf) mice have little or no natural killer (nk) cell activity, but when they are relocated in conventional conditions, they develop strong ncmc within 2 to 3 days. unlike other spf animals, hypothymic nude mice display good ncmc which is further augmented upon their entry into a pathogenic environment. the ontogeny, genetic control and other features of p ...197993585

in vivo release of substance p in the cat substantia nigra.push-pull cannuale were implanted into the substantia nigra (sn) and the caudate nucleus (cn) of the cat to study the in vivo release of substance p (sp), using a radioimmunoassay and high pressure liquid chromatography (hplc) analysis. the spontaneous release of sp could be detected in the sn and the cn. potassium (50 mm) locally applied stimulated sp release in both structures. furthermore an important evoked release of sp was observed in the sn during depolarization of striato-nigral sp fiber ...197993729
characterization and mode of action of a bacteriocin produced by a bacteroides fragilis strain.a bacteroides fragilis strain produces a low-molecular-weight (13,500 to 18,700), proteinaceous bacteriocin during the stationary growth phase. the extracellular bacteriocin is not inducible by ultraviolet light or mitomycin c and is stable between ph 7.5 and 8.2. the majority of the bacteriocin is thermolabile, but a small proportion (3%) of the bacteriocin is stable after autoclaving at 121 degrees c for 15 min. killing of sensitive bacteroides cells follows single-hit kinetics, and the intera ...197993876
effects of exogenous gonadotropic and steroid hormones on the social behaviour and gonadal maturation of male domestic ducklings anas platyrhynchos l.male domestic ducklings were injected during their first month of life with mammalian gonadotrophins (ovine lh or fsh, hmg) or gonadal steroids (testosterone or oestradiol). lh and testosterone stimulated sexual behaviour while oestradiol inhibited the increase of aggression observed in control birds during the experiment. the mammalian gonadotrophins did not increase plasma testosterone but nevertheless they all stimulated the testis growth. several hypotheses which could explain this finding ( ...197993890
