| bone mineral metabolism in experimental diabetes mellitus: osteocalcin as a measure of bone remodeling. | the etiology of diabetic osteopenia has not been established. the value of serum osteocalcin (bgp) as a marker of the bone abnormalities and the possible role of the polyol pathway in diabetic osteopenia were investigated. three groups of rats were studied over 7 weeks: group d (n = 12), rats with streptozotocin (55 mg/kg)-induced diabetes given saline by gavage; group ds (n = 12), rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes given the aldose reductase inhibitor sorbinil (25 mg/kg) daily by gavage; ... | 1988 | 3133194 |
| valproate-associated hepatotoxicity and its biochemical mechanisms. | intake of the anticonvulsant drug valproic acid, or its sodium salt, has been associated with occasional instances of severe and sometimes fatal hepatotoxicity. probably at least 80 cases have occurred worldwide. the syndrome affects perhaps 1 in 10,000 persons taking the drug, and usually develops in the early weeks or months of therapy. most instances have involved children, usually those receiving more than 1 anticonvulsant. multiple cases have occurred in 2 families. the typical presentation ... | 2011 | 3131628 |
| cytopathic effects of the pathogenic neisseria. studies using human fallopian tube organ cultures and human nasopharyngeal organ cultures. | infection of mucosal surfaces by n. gonorrhoeae and n. meningitidis may result in inflammation indicating potential injury to host cells. we used human fallopian tube organ cultures (ftoc) and human nasopharyngeal organ cultures (npoc) to study the mechanisms by which gonococci and meningococci damage human mucosal surfaces. early in the course of ftoc infected with gonococci and npoc infected with meningococci, damage was most apparent to ciliary activity. loss of ciliary activity was accompani ... | 1987 | 3130794 |
