reference ranges and ideal patient values for blood cholesterol. can there be reconciliation?reference ranges for blood cholesterol levels reflect the nationwide epidemic of "silent" hypercholesterolemia. as such, reference ranges for cholesterol levels without accompanying designation of levels associated with increased coronary risk are misleading and falsely comforting to physicians and patients. in a recent continent-wide study of 108 academically based clinical laboratories, highly variable reference ranges were observed, the ranges having been derived from a vast assortment of sou ...20133754717
the chemical and enzymatic oxidation of hematohemin ix. identification of hematobiliverdin ix alpha as the sole product of the enzymatic oxidation.oxidative cleavage of hematohemin ix in pyridine solution in the presence of ascorbic acid (coupled oxidation), followed by esterification of the products with boron trifluoride/methanol produced the four possible hematobiliverdin dimethyl esters in 11.1% overall yield. transetherifications took place simultaneously with the esterification reaction and resulted in the formation of the dimethyl ester of hematobiliverdin ix gamma 8a,13a-dimethyl ether (1.8%), the dimethyl ester of hematobiliverdin ...19863754208
morphological changes in rat striatal boutons after chronic methamphetamine and haloperidol treatment.dopaminergic (da) synaptic boutons were identified in rat striatum with an electron microscopic histochemical method. in rats which developed behavioral hypersensitivity after treatment with methamphetamine (map) for about 2 weeks, significantly fewer da boutons were found. this effect was specific to da boutons without mitochondria and was not seen in boutons with mitochondria. the density of granular synaptic vesicles in da boutons, however, did not change significantly. these morphological ch ...19863748472
a method for repeated csf sampling in the freely moving rat.with the use of a holder mounted on the skull of rats, a cannula can be implanted so that one end rests on the atlanto-occipital membrane overlying the cisterna magna. needles introduced through the cannula allow repeated access to the cisterna magna in the freely moving animal. this system is stable for periods of up to 4 weeks and is suited for repeated sampling of the cerebrospinal fluid.19863747592
the sodium cycle. iii. vibrio alginolyticus resembles vibrio cholerae and some other vibriones by flagellar motor and ribosomal 5s-rna structures.an electron microscopic study of the basal bodies of the vibrio albinolyticus flagellum revealed a four-disc structure. the diameters of the two discs localized closer to the cytoplasmic membrane proved to be about 2-fold shorter than those of the two others. in this respect the basal body of v. alginolyticus resembles very much that of v. cholerae described by ferris and co-workers. the sequence of the v. alginolyticus ribosomal 5s-rna showed that it is similar to those of v. cholerae, v. harve ...19863730372
purification and initial characterization of the 71-kilodalton rat heat-shock protein and its cognate as fatty acid binding proteins.the major rat heat-shock (stress) protein and its cognate were purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from livers of heat-shocked rats. both proteins exhibited similar behavior on a variety of column chromatography matrices but were separable by preparative isoelectric focusing under nondenaturing conditions by virtue of a 0.2 ph unit difference in isoelectric point. both purified proteins had similar physical properties, suggesting the possibility that they may have similar biological function ...19863730359

effect of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin d3 on insulin secretion: direct or mediated?in order to clarify the role of vitamin d (d) in regulating insulin secretion, we studied the effect of long term (10 days) and short term (3 days) supplementation with d and/or calcium (ca) on insulin secretion from the isolated, perfused pancreas of d- and ca-deficient rats. the influence of the nutritional state induced by d deficiency was also evaluated. the long term supplementation of either d, ca, or both restored the body weight and improved insulin secretion induced by high glucose conc ...19863516655

experience with isoxicam and catabolin.1 synovial cells produce a protein factor, catabolin, that induces chondrocytes to resorb their own matrix with the release of glycosaminoglycan (gag). 2 studies were performed to determine the effect of isoxicam, a new nsaid, on gag production in a catabolin system utilizing tissue culture of bovine nasal septum in a medium containing pooled synovial tissue from young pigs. 3 using fresh medium containing no synovial tissue, the release of gag by inherent cartilage breakdown was 49.7% after 8 d ...19863497659
trimethoprim used for selective decontamination of the digestive tract in rats: possible route of excretion.selective elimination of enterobacteriaceae species from the digestive tract of rats has been accomplished by oral treatment with trimethoprim (235 mg/kg body weight/day) within 6 days. in the present study it was investigated whether this elimination was mainly due to antimicrobial activity of trimethoprim excreted with the gastrointestinal mucus or mainly by non-absorbed trimethoprim in the lumen contents. by means of whole gut irrigation (wgi) the lumen contents were washed out, followed by m ...19873497436
nifedipine and thallium-201 myocardial perfusion in progressive systemic sclerosis.heart disease in patients with progressive systemic sclerosis may be due in part to myocardial ischemia caused by a disturbance of the coronary microcirculation. to determine whether abnormalities of myocardial perfusion in this disorder are potentially reversible, we evaluated the effect of the coronary vasodilator nifedipine on myocardial perfusion assessed by thallium-201 scanning in 20 patients. thallium-201 single-photon-emission computerized tomography was performed under control condition ...20123486363
immunological studies on crohn's disease. iv. decreased adcc activity.antibody dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (adcc) activity was studied in 16 japanese patients with crohn's disease (cd) and 16 healthy controls. adcc activity was assessed by measuring 51cr release from antibody coated human b-cell line. significantly (p less than 0.002) depressed adcc activity was found in patients with cd, although adcc activity was not directly related to the disease activity. to determine causative factors related to reductions in adcc activity, circulating immune comple ...19863485720
