mechanism of binding of mouse interferon to controlled pore glass.many proteins bind to controlled pore glass; they are either acid elutable or alkali elutable. mouse interferon is an acid-elutable protein. since poly(l-lysine) and, to some extent, poly(l-arginine) are also eluted from controlled pore glass under acidic conditions, one may postulate that mouse interferon binds to controlled pore glass via some of the protein's epsilon-amino groups (of lysine) and/or guanidinium groups (of arginine) and the beads' silanol (hydroxyl groups). the necessity of lys ...197994835
analysis of anti-sperm sera for t/t locus-specific antibody.an objective antiglobulin radioimmunoassay for the analysis of anti-spermatozoa antisera has been used to characterize more than 30 alloantisera. each of these antisera was raised against spermatozoa from mice carrying t/t regin mutations. whilst all of the antisera had considerable activity for mouse spermatozoa, none of them was found to contain antibodies specific for t/t region gene products. a detailed analysis of a single serum revealed that its activity is for antigens which are non-polym ...197995255
bacillus subtilis 168 genetic transformation mediated by outgrowing spores: necessity for cell contact.transforming activity released in sequential genetic order during the first synchronous cycle of dna replication during outgrowth of spores of bacillus subtilis 168 was investigated. a transformation assay was used consisting of outgrowing spores as dna donors and multiply marked competent cells as recipients. dna synthesis inhibitors known to stop dna release were used during and subsequent to dna transfer to recipient cells. the released dna sedimented with the outgrowing cells after low-speed ...197896105

genital herpetic infection in men and women: clinical course and effect of topical application of adenine arabinoside.sixty-three episodes of genital herpetic infection in 55 men and 45 episodes in 42 women were randomly assigned to topical treatment with 3% adenine arabinoside, topical treatment with placebo ointment, or no therapy. in addition, 10 episodes in women who were not randomly assigned to therapy were evaluated and followed. clinical evaluation and viral cultures were done on day 3, day 8, and weekly thereafter until the lesions had healed. the natural clinical course of genital herpetic infection w ...1976180196
effectiveness of orally administered bordetella pertussis vaccine in mice.oral administration of killed bordetella pertussis organisms to mice results in increased resistance to an intracerebral infection with virulent b. pertussis cells. the rate of survival is dependent on the dose of antigen. but besides specific systemic immunity, which is persistent over a long period, also transient non-specific resistance is increased. these effects are evidently induced without penetration of bacterial substances into the circulation.1976182602
inflammatory cells in solid murine neoplasms. i. tumor disaggregation and identification of constituent inflammatory cells.mechanical and enzymatic methods of disaggregating tumors were studied with the goals of (1) minimizing cell losses while (2) maintaining functional and surface membrane markers needed to objectively identify inflammatory cells (ic)1 in resultant suspensions. application of the principles and methods described makes accurate estimation of the percentage of each ic type present in neoplasms possible for the first time. compared to purely mechanical means of disaggregating tumors, all enzyme mixtu ...1976182647
the effect of hypoxia on collagen synthesis in cultured 3t6 fibroblasts and its relationship to the mode of action of ascorbate.when exposed to low oxygen tension, in the absence of added ascorbic acid 3t6 mouse fibroblast cultures in late log phase respond by increased lactate production and increased hydroxylation of proline in nascent collagen, which is paralleled by an increase in prolyl hydroxylase activity. after 6 h recovery from the anoxic stimulus, however, cultures still yield more prolyl hydroxylase than controls, but the effect on hydroxylation of nascent collagen has disappeared. these observations help to d ...1976183826

regulation of norepinephrine release from cardiac sympathetic fibers in the dog by presynaptic alpha- and beta-receptors.the effect of phenoxybenzamine (pba), desmethylimipramine (dmi), clonidine (clnd), sotalol (stl), and isoproterenol (ispr) on the release of endogenous norepinephrine (ne) from the heart on right cardioaccelerator nerve stimulation was studied in anesthetized dogs. under control conditions, the catecholamine levels in coronary sinus blood increased linearly with increasing frequencies of stimulation up to 10 hz and did not increase further at 30 hz. the release of ne was markedly enhanced after ...1977193655
adenovirus of ring-necked pheasants: purification and partial characterization of marble spleen disease virus.a method for purification of marble spleen disease virus (msdv) from the spleens of infected turkeys and pheasants is described. it combines chloroform or fluorocarbon extraction with subsequent purification by centrifugation on a cushion of cesium chloride (cscl). further purification of msdv was accomplished with a cscl equilibrium density gradient. a viral buoyant density of approximately 1.32 to 1.33 g/cm3 was determined. negative-stain electron microscopy revealed that virus isopycnically b ...1977193796
