structural and functional studies of the effects of sympathetic nerve stimulation on rabbit submandibular salivary glands.continuous sympathetic stimulation at 8-10 hz caused intense vasoconstriction in the gland, so stimulation was generally given in an interrupted pattern to minimize this detrimental effect on secretion. only a small increase in fluid secretion occurred; it became thick and tended to block the cannula; therefore in later experiments the main duct was not cannulated. after sympathetic stimulation there was substantial degranulation of acinar cells. however, as this was accompanied by little moveme ...19883165262
na+ modulates the k+ permeability and the membrane potential of alkalophilic bacillus.in the absence of na+ in the medium, the membrane potential of obligately alkalophilic bacillus cells was found to be decreased by the addition of k+ to the medium, whereas k+ addition in the presence of na+ had no effect. rb+ showed essentially the same effect as k+. the decreased membrane potential was quickly restored by lowering the k+ concentration in the medium or by adding na+ or li+ to the medium. thus, in the absence of na+, the membrane potential of alkalophilic bacillus seems to be af ...19873663674

[antibiotic resistance and plasmid profiles of vibrio isolates from cultured sparus sarba].a total of 51 potential pathogenic vibrios were isolated from moribund silver seabream sparus sarba, which were collected from local fish farms of hong kong. all the isolates were classified and identified as 7 species by the api 20 e system and the scheme of alsina & blanch. these species were vibrio alginolyticus (24 strains), vibrio vulnificus (12 strains), vibrio parahaemolyticus(7 strains), vibrio logei(4 strains), vibrio pelagius ii(2 strains), vibrio fluvialis (1 strains) and vibrio medit ...199912555529
spatial and temporal distribution of the vibrionaceae in coastal waters of hawaii, australia, and france.relatively little is known about large-scale spatial and temporal fluctuations in bacterioplankton, especially within the bacterial families. in general, however, a number of abiotic factors (namely, nutrients and temperature) appear to influence distribution. community dynamics within the vibrionaceae are of particular interest to biologists because this family contains a number of important pathogenic, commensal, and mutualist species. of special interest to this study is the mutualism between ...200717345129
multi-gene analysis reveals previously unrecognized phylogenetic diversity in aliivibrio.the "vibrio fischeri species group" recently was reclassified as a new genus, aliivibrio, comprising four species, aliivibrio fischeri, aliivibrio logei, aliivibrio salmonicida, and aliivibrio wodanis. only limited phylogenetic analysis of strains within aliivibrio has been carried out, however, and taxonomic ambiguity is evident within this group, especially for phenotypically unusual strains and certain strains isolated from bioluminescent symbioses. therefore, to examine in depth the evolutio ...200919481895
detection of quorum sensing signal molecules in the family vibrionaceae.the aim of this study was to detect the production of three kinds of quorum sensing (qs) signal molecules, i.e. the n-acyl-homoserine lactone (ahl), the autoinducer-2 (ai-2) and the cholerae autoinducer-1-like (cai-1-like) molecules in 25 vibrionaceae strains.201121395950
fetal heart rate during a maternal grand mal epileptic seizure.although maternal ingestion of antiepileptic drugs is strongly suspected of causing congenital defects, particularly oral clefts, the effect of epilepsy itself or a combined effect of drug intake and epilepsy have not been excluded as etiological factors. very little is known about fetal oxygenation during a maternal grand mal epileptic seizure. we describe two cases in which fetal heart rate was recorded during a maternal epileptic seizure during labor. the first fetus became clearly asphyctic ...1998106102

comparative analysis of the lux operons in aliivibrio logei kch1 (a kamchatka isolate) and aliivibrio salmonicida.here we provide a molecular description of a new psychrophilic strain, kch11, of marine luminescent bacteria classified as aliivibrio logei. we sequenced the entire lux operon of a. logei kch1 and showed that it is substantially similar to the lux operon of aliivibrio salmonicida. it was demonstrated that the reduced production of bioluminescence in a. salmonicida is most likely defined by a specific defect in its luxd gene.201121665974
anomalous origin of right pulmonary artery from the ascending aorta.anomalous origin of one pulmonary artery from the ascending aorta without associated intracardiac defects is a rare congenital malformation. about 60 anatomic and surgical descriptions have been reported in the literature. up to 1974, 22 of the 50 reported cases underwent surgical correction with a 40% mortality rate. the natural history without surgery is poor with a very high mortality during the first year of life. successful anatomic correction of anomalous origin of right pulmonary artery f ...20092777879
aliivibrio finisterrensis sp. nov., isolated from manila clam, ruditapes philippinarum and emended description of the genus aliivibrio.four strains isolated from cultured manila clam, ruditapes philippinarum, in the north-western coast of spain were characterized phenotypically and genotypically. phylogenetic analyses based on the 16s rrna gene sequences indicated that these bacteria were closely related to aliivibrio wodanis, aliivibrio salmonicida, aliivibrio fischeri and aliivibrio logei with sequence similarities between 98.1 and 96.0 %. phylogenetic analysis based on the rna polymerase alpha chain (rpoa), reca protein (rec ...201019648323

reclassification of vibrio fischeri, vibrio logei, vibrio salmonicida and vibrio wodanis as aliivibrio fischeri gen. nov., comb. nov., aliivibrio logei comb. nov., aliivibrio salmonicida comb. nov. and aliivibrio wodanis comb. nov.four closely related species, vibrio fischeri, vibrio logei, vibrio salmonicida and vibrio wodanis, form a clade within the family vibrionaceae; the taxonomic status and phylogenetic position of this clade have remained ambiguous for many years. to resolve this ambiguity, we tested these species against other species of the vibrionaceae for phylogenetic and phenotypic differences. sequence identities for the 16s rrna gene were > or =97.4 % among members of the v. fischeri group, but were < or =9 ...200718048732
vibrio gallicus sp. nov., isolated from the gut of the french abalone haliotis tuberculata.five alginolytic, facultatively anaerobic, non-motile bacteria were isolated from the gut of the abalone haliotis tuberculata. phylogenetic analyses based on 16s rdna data indicated that these strains are related to vibrio wodanis, vibrio salmonicida, vibrio logei and vibrio fischeri (but with <97 % 16s rrna gene sequence similarity). dna-dna hybridization and fluorescence amplified fragment length polymorphism fingerprinting demonstrated that the five strains constituted a single species that w ...200415143033
cloning, characterisation and phylogenetic analysis of the fur gene in vibrio salmonicida and vibrio logei.the gene encoding the ferric uptake regulator protein (fur gene) of vibrio salmonicida 87/09/1193 was located following hybridisation of an ecori digest of chromosomal v. salmonicida dna with a 316 base pairs (bp) probe internal to the fur gene of vibrio anguillarum. a 2088 bp fragment including an open reading frame of 441 bp, encoding a protein of 147 amino acids, and homologous with fur, was identified, cloned and sequenced. a plasmid bound v. salmonicida fur gene was found capable of complem ...200212383519
polychlorinated biphenyl degradation activities and hybridization analyses of fifteen aerobic strains isolated from a pcb-contaminated site.fifteen bacterial strains using biphenyl as sole carbon and energy source, obtained from different positions and depths of a polychlorinated biphenyl (pcb)-contaminated area, were analyzed for their basic metabolic phenotypes and subjected to genomic dna hybridization screening for the presence of well characterized bph operons such as those of pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes kf707 and rhodococcus globerulus p6. most of the isolates belonged to the gamma-subdivision (pseudomonas stutzeri, p. pluti ...200111501677
genome-level homology and phylogeny of vibrionaceae (gammaproteobacteria: vibrionales) with three new complete genome sequences.phylogenetic hypotheses based on complete genome data are presented for the gammaproteobacteria family vibrionaceae. two taxon samplings are presented: one including all those taxa for which the genome sequences are complete in terms of arrangement (chromosomal location of fragments; 19 taxa) and one for which the genome sequences contain multiple contigs (44 taxa). analyses are presented under the maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood optimality criteria for total evidence datasets, the two ...201323578061
temperature affects species distribution in symbiotic populations of vibrio spp.the genus sepiola (cephalopoda: sepiolidae) contains 10 known species that occur in the mediterranean sea today. all sepiola species have a light organ that contains at least one of two species of luminous bacteria, vibrio fischeri and vibrio logei. the two vibrio species coexist in at least four sepiola species (s. affinis, s. intermedia, s. ligulata, and s. robusta), and their concentrations in the light organ depend on changes in certain abiotic factors, including temperature. strains of v. f ...200010919820
characterization of vibrio viscosus and vibrio wodanis isolated at different geographical locations: a proposal for reclassification of vibrio viscosus as moritella viscosa comb. nov.vibrio viscosus and vibrio wodanis are recently described species of psychrotropic bacteria that have been found associated with a disease called 'winter ulcer', affecting salmonid fish reared in saline water in norway, iceland and recently in scotland. v. viscosus and v. wodanis strains initially isolated from fish in iceland and norway were subjected to characterization using biochemical tests, sds-page of whole-cell proteins and a novel dna fingerprinting method, amplified fragment length pol ...200010758850
phenotypic and genotypic characterization of vibrio viscosus sp. nov. and vibrio wodanis sp. nov. isolated from atlantic salmon (salmo salar) with 'winter ulcer'.two groups of vibrio strains isolated from atlantic salmon with 'winter ulcer' were characterized phenotypically and genotypically. the data obtained indicated that each of the two groups represented a new species in the genus vibrio. the names vibrio viscosus sp. nov. [type strain nvi 88/478t (= ncimb 13584t)] and vibrio wodanis sp. nov. [type strain nvi 88/441t (= ncimb 13582t)] are proposed for the new species. v. viscosus strains exhibited a similar total dna rflp pattern and a similar plasm ...200010758846
cryptic luminescence in the cold-water fish pathogen vibrio salmonicida.the recent discovery that the fish pathogen vibrio salmonicida is closely related to the luminous bacteria vibrio fischeri and vibrio logei suggested that v. salmonicida might also be capable of bioluminescence. interestingly, cells of v. salmonicida were found to produce light in culture, but only when exposed to either an aliphatic aldehyde and/or the major v. fischeri autoinducer n-(3-oxo-hexanoyl)-l-homoserine lactone, a transcriptional activator of the luminescence (lux) genes. an extract o ...199910201098
a new niche for vibrio logei, the predominant light organ symbiont of squids in the genus sepiola.two genera of sepiolid squids--euprymna, found primarily in shallow, coastal waters of hawaii and the western pacific, and sepiola, the deeper-, colder-water-dwelling mediterranean and atlantic squids--are known to recruit luminous bacteria into light organ symbioses. the light organ symbiont of euprymna spp. is vibrio fischeri, but until now, the light organ symbionts of sepiola spp. have remained inadequately identified. we used a combination of molecular and physiological characteristics to r ...19989422593
shewanella woodyi sp. nov., an exclusively respiratory luminous bacterium isolated from the alboran sea.thirty-four strains of nonfermentative, respiratory, luminous bacteria were isolated from samples of squid ink and seawater from depths of 200 to 300 m in the alboran sea. although these strains had a few properties similar to properties of shewanella (alteromonas) hanedai, they did not cluster phenotypically with any previously described bacterium. the nucleotide sequence of a 740-bp segment of luxa was not homologous with other known luxa sequences but clustered with the luxa sequences of shew ...19979336902

benzodiazepines enhance the muscimol-dependent activation of phospholipase a2 in glioma c6 cells.glioma c6 cells were incubated with [14c]arachidonate to label membrane phospholipids. muscimol, a selective gamma-aminobutyric acid a receptor agonist, but not (-)-baclofen, a selective gamma-aminobutyric acid b receptor agonist, stimulates [14c]arachidonate release from c6 cells as a result of hydrolysis of a small pool of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine by phospholipase a2. this release is facilitated by diazepam and a number of other benzodiazepines such as flunitrazepam, me ...19852857784
death due to disruption of sternal fixation wire--a rare complication after open heart surgery through sternotomy: report of a case.following sternotomy for open heart surgery, a 57-year-old man had the sternum closed in the usual manner with six no.22 gauge stainless steel wire sutures. twenty-four days later, sternum disruption occurred with only one wire suture in place, 3 wire sutures cutting through the bone, and 2 wire sutures fractured. a lacerating injury over the anterior surface of the right ventricle was rendered by these 2 fractured wires followed by fatal outcome. to our knowledge, death induced by fractured wir ...19892794943
absorption of lactose from colon of newborn piglet.piglets in three age groups (1-3, 9-11, and 16-25 days after birth) were used for in vivo colonic perfusions. studies compared an isosmolar (312 mosm) with a high osmolar (551 mosm) solution and two equimolar substrates (with hexose concentrations of 73.1 mm), lactose and glucose-galactose. from the isosmolar perfusates, lactose absorption was 0.43 +/- 0.04 in the 18-20 day olds and 1.04 +/- 0.2 mumol.cm-1.min-1 in the 1-3 day olds; absorption from the glucose-galactose solution was negligible i ...19911907103
a comparison of drug-induced rotation in rats lesioned in the medial forebrain bundle with 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine or 6-hydroxydopamine.drug-induced rotational behaviour was studied in two groups of rats with differing chemical lesion of the right medial forebrain bundle (mfb). 6-hydroxydopamine (6-oh-da), 3.5 mug, injected in one group, induced a marked lowering of dopamine (da) and noradrenaline (na) in the right hemiforebrain. 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine (5,6-ht), 10 mug, injected in a second group, produced a profound and long-lasting depletion of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-ht) and da, but not of na. rotational behaviour induced in ...1975127559
the cellulolytic enzymes of botryodiplodia theobromae pat. separation and characterization of cellulases and beta-glucosidases.1. filtrates from cultures of different ages of botryodiplodia theobromae pat. were fractionated by gel filtration, ion-exchange chromatography and polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. 2. five cellulases (c1, c2, c3, c4 and c5) were found, and their molecular weights, estimated by gel filtration, were 46000-48000 (c1), 30000-35000 (c2), 15000-18000 (c3), 10000-11000 (c4) and 4800-5500 (c5). 3. cellulase c5 was absent from old culture filtrates. 4. cellulase c1 had little or no activity on cm-cell ...1979106849
demonstration of antigenic differences between strains of poliovirus type 1 by agar diffusion precipitation reaction.antigenic differences between type 1 poliovirus strains circulating in nature were investigated by agar diffusion precipitation reaction. three strain-specific sera were absorbed with antigens prepared from 8 strains (sabin's vaccine strain lsc2ab and 7 strains isolated from poliomyelitis patients or healthy persons). the results suggested the presence of at least 5 antigenic determinants in the poliovirus type 1 strains studied. three determinants in different combinations were found in 7 strai ...200092184
the relation between maternal plasma alpha-fetoprotein and birth weight in twin pregnancies.in the course of routine screening for neural tube defects, maternal plasma alpha-fetoprotein (afp) was measured between 15 and 23 weeks of gestation in 64 twin pregnancies. women with afp levels more than twice the median for singleton pregnancies gave birth to infants with significantly decreased birth weights. women with afp less than the median also tended to produce twins with decreased birth weights. the distribution of gestations at delivery suggested that in twin pregnancies low afp valu ...199991381
pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency in spinocerebellar degenerations.to study the incidence of abnormalities of the pyruvate (pdh) or ketoglutarate (kgdh) dehydrogenase complexes in patients with spinocerebellar degenerations, we measured the activities of pdh and kgdh in platelet-enriched preparations from the blood of 14 patients. low pdh was found in 6 of the 14 patients; low kgdh was found in 2 of the 6. pdh-normal and pdh-abnormal patients could not be distinguished by clinical criteria. these results extend previous studies, which suggested abnormalities of ...1998106330

[post-traumatic intracavernous aneurysms. 2 cases].the authors describe two cases of post-traumatic aneurysms of the intracavernous carotid artery. they analyze the difficulties they have encountered during direct approach. direct cure was impossible for the first patient because of the arterial wall dilaceration. in the second case, the aneurysm has been treated upon by stitching. a second operation with injection of biological glue into the cavernous sinus was required because of the secondary formation of a carotido-cavernous fistula in front ...20083374725
the significance of the variant left accessory hepatic artery in surgery for proximal gastric cancer.during proximal resection of the stomach and gastrectomy, a large left accessory hepatic artery originating from the left gastric artery is sometimes found. when this occurs together with absent or weak collateral circulation in the corresponding part of the liver, it is necessary to perform resection of the left lobe of the liver (0.91% of all cases). this tactic can save a patient from the development of lethal complications of necrosis of the left lobe.20083579588
determination of the genetic diversity of different bioluminescent bacteria by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (pfge).there are 4 different genera (i.e. vibrio, aliivibrio, photobacterium, and shewanella) in the new classification of bioluminescent bacteria. the mechanism of bioluminescence has yet to be fully elucidated. therefore, the determination of physiological and genetic characteristics of bioluminescent bacteria isolated from different sources is very important. pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (pfge) has the highest discriminatory power among the different molecular typing methods for the investigatio ...201526421141
the dna-mimic antirestriction proteins arda colib-p9, arn t4, and ocr t7 as activators of h-ns-dependent gene transcription.the antirestriction proteins arda colib-p9, arn t4 and ocr t7 specifically inhibit type i and type iv restriction enzymes and belong to the family of dna-mimic proteins because their three-dimensional structure is similar to the double-helical b-form dna. it is proposed that the dna-mimic proteins are able to bind nucleoid protein h-ns and alleviate h-ns-silencing of the transcription of bacterial genes. escherichia coli lux biosensors were constructed by inserting h-ns-dependent promoters into ...201627664747
a combination of luxr1 and luxr2 genes activates pr-promoters of psychrophilic aliivibrio logei lux-operon independently of chaperonin groel/es and protease lon at high concentrations of autoinducer.lux-operon of psychrophilic bacteria aliivibrio logei contains two copies of luxr and is regulated by type i quorum sensing (qs). activation of lux-operon of psychrophilic bacteria a. logei by luxr1 requires about 100 times higher concentrations of autoinducer (ai) than the activation by luxr2. on the other hand, luxr1 does not require groel/es chaperonin for its folding and cannot be degraded by protease lon, while luxr2 sensitive to lon and requires groel/es. here we show that at 10(-5) - 10(- ...201627067048
lux-operon of the marine psychrophilic bacteria aliivibrio logei: a comparative analysis of the luxr1/luxr2 regulatory activity in escherichia coli cells.the lux-operon оf the psychrophilic bioluminescent bacterium a. logei is regulated by quorum sensing (qs). the key components of this system are luxi that catalyzes the synthesis of autoinducer (ai) and luxr that activates the transcription of entire lux-operon. the lux-operon of a. logei contains two copies of luxr gene: luxr1 and luxr2. in the present study lux-operon sequence analysis from 16 strains of a. logei, isolated from cold habitats of the white, baltic, okhotsk and bering seas was ca ...201626847185
