| blood changes in carp (cyprinus carpio) induced by ulcerative aeromonas salmonicida infections. | only recently aeromonas salmonicida has been recognized as a significant bacterial pathogen in ulcerative disease of cyprinid fish. our attempts to formulate a vaccine based on bacterial surface antigens were unsuccessful in conferring reliable protection against lethal challenge. this lead us to study pathological changes in the humoral defense system during ulcerative a. salmonicida infection in carp. high numbers of opportunist pathogens such as a. hydrophila and pseudomonas sp. were frequent ... | 1986 | 3765352 |
| effect of an immunopotentiator on aeromonas salmonicida infection in rainbow trout (salmo gairdneri). | the immunoactive peptide fk-565 (heptanoyl-y-d-glutamyl-(l)-mesodiaminopimelyl-(d)-alanine) was found to induce protection against intraperitoneal aeromonas salmonicida infection in rainbow trout (salmo gairdneri richardson). the survival rate was as high as 60% when fk-565 was given intraperitoneally as a single dose (1mg/kg) one day before bacterial challenge. a non-specific stimulation of phagocytic cells by fk-565 at an early stage of the bacterial infection may contribute to the resistance ... | 1986 | 3765348 |
| interaction between aeromonas salmonicida and peritoneal macrophages of brook trout (salvelinus fontinalis). | the phagocytic and bactericidal properties of peritoneal macrophages obtained from brook trout (salvelinus fontinalis), injected with either glycogen or a modified freund's complete adjuvant (mfca), were evaluated against an avirulent and a virulent strain of aeromonas salmonicida. avirulent bacteria were effectively phagocytized and killed by macrophages obtained from fish injected with both irritants. with glycogen-elicited macrophages, no enhancement of killing was observed following opsoniza ... | 1986 | 3765344 |

| evaluation of prostaglandins as mediators of tubuloglomerular feedback. | orthograde and retrograde microperfusion experiments were conducted in sprague-dawley rats to evaluate the participation of vasoconstrictive eicosanoids as mediators of tubuloglomerular feedback (tgf) signals. retrograde perfusion with 160 microm arachidonic acid (aa) added to a hypotonic solution enhanced the stop-flow pressure (sfp) feedback responses compared with those obtained with the control hypotonic solution (delta sfp, 1.6 +/- 0.4 vs. 10.1 +/- 0.7 mmhg with aa). blockade of thromboxane ... | 1988 | 3364575 |
| the processing of asparagine-linked oligosaccharides in ht-29 cells is a function of their state of enterocytic differentiation. an accumulation of man9,8-glcnac2-asn species is indicative of an impaired n-glycan trimming in undifferentiated cells. | studies on the regulation of the enterocytic differentiation of the human colon cancer cell line ht-29, which is differentiated in the absence (glc-) but not in the presence of glucose (glc+), have recently shown that the post-translational processing of sucrase-isomaltase and particularly its glycosylation vary as a function of cell differentiation (trugnan g., rousset, m., chantret, i., barbat, a., and zweibaum, a. (1987) j. cell biol. 104, 1199-1205). other studies indicate that in undifferen ... | 1988 | 3360773 |
