| diversity of wolbachia pipientis strain wpip in a genetically admixtured, above-ground culex pipiens (diptera: culicidae) population: association with form molestus ancestry and host selection patterns. | analysis of molecular genetic diversity in nine marker regions of five genes within the bacteriophage wo genomic region revealed high diversity of the wolbachia pipentis strain wpip in a population of culex pipiens l. sampled in metropolitan chicago, il. from 166 blood fed females, 50 distinct genetic profiles of wpip were identified. rarefaction analysis suggested a maximum of 110 profiles out of a possible 512 predicted by combinations of the nine markers. a rank-abundance curve showed that fe ... | 0 | 22679853 |
| decapitation improves detection of wolbachia pipientis (rickettsiales: anaplasmataceae) in culex pipiens (diptera: culicidae) mosquitoes by the polymerase chain reaction. | polymerase chain reaction (pcr) is often used to detect microorganisms, pathogens, or both, including the reproductive parasite wolbachia pipientis (rickettsiales: anaplasmataceae), in mosquitoes. natural populations of culex pipiens l. (diptera: culicidae) mosquitoes are infected with one or more strains of w. pipientis, and crosses between mosquitoes harboring different wolbachia strains provide one of the best-known examples of cytoplasmic incompatibililty (ci). when we used pcr to monitor wo ... | 0 | 23025192 |
| detection of wolbachia pipientis, including a new strain containing the wsp gene, in two sister species of paraphlebotomus sandflies, potential vectors of zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis. | individual, naturally occurring phlebotomus mongolensis and phlebotomus caucasicus from iran were screened for infections with the maternally inherited intracellular rickettsia-like bacterium wolbachia pipientis via targeting a major surface protein gene (wsp). the main objective of this study was to determine if w. pipientis could be detected in these species. the sandflies were screened using polymerase chain reaction to amplify a fragment of the wolbachia surface protein gene. the obtained se ... | 0 | 23828002 |
| genomic evolution of the pathogenic wolbachia strain, wmelpop. | most strains of the widespread endosymbiotic bacterium wolbachia pipientis are benign or behave as reproductive parasites. the pathogenic strain wmelpop is a striking exception, however: it overreplicates in its insect hosts and causes severe life shortening. the mechanism of this pathogenesis is currently unknown. we have sequenced the genomes of three variants of wmelpop and of the closely related nonpathogenic strain wmelcs. we show that the genomes of wmelcs and wmelpop appear to be identica ... | 0 | 24190075 |

| [proportions of the femur and humerus in relation to bone length]. | taking as a starting point the known fact that the vertical proportions of man are dependent upon stature, a study has been made to investigate if the relations between individual segments of long tubular bones are also dependent upon overall bone length. for these investigations, use was made of 356 human femurs of unknown sex, which were obtained from the bone collection of the institute of anatomy (kurp 1979), and 70 human humeri of known sex (kropf 1979), which were obtained from the institu ... | 1985 | 4073525 |
| hypercalcemia in the neuroleptic malignant syndrome. | the neuroleptic malignant syndrome (nms) developed in a 32-year-old man following fluphenazine enanthate administration. hypercalcemia was initially present, perhaps reflecting release of calcium from skeletal muscle stores. the elevated serum calcium levels support the existence of a peripheral muscle abnormality in the pathogenesis of the nms and provides another point of similarity between nms and malignant hyperthermia. | 1985 | 3970627 |
| selective regulation of carboxypeptidase peptide hormone-processing enzyme during enkephalin biosynthesis in cultured bovine adrenomedullary chromaffin cells. | bovine adrenomedullary chromaffin cells in culture were incubated with reserpine or forskolin, two agents acting through different mechanisms, which increase cellular [met]enkephalin levels by 2-fold after 72 h. cells were harvested and chromaffin granules were purified on a linear sucrose gradient. after reserpine treatment, carboxypeptidase-processing enzyme specific activity in chromaffin granule fractions was stimulated 1.9-fold, and co2+-stimulated carboxypeptidase specific activity was sti ... | 1985 | 4039723 |
| extravasation of polymorphonuclear leukocytes from the cerebral microvasculature. inflammatory response induced by alpha-bungarotoxin. | postcapillary venules represent the segment of the microvasculature most vulnerable to inflammatory processes. while there is a considerable body of data on the peripheral vasculature, little is known about the primary events occurring during inflammatory reactions in cerebral blood vessels. we introduce here a model by which the migration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes through the cns endothelial barrier can be studied. alpha-bungarotoxin is used as a chemotactic agent and is shown, for the fi ... | 1985 | 4053172 |
| dyschondroplasia/osteochondrosis of the femoral trochanter in the fowl. | of 104 lame broilers, 12 birds with femoral trochanteric abnormalities were identified by post-mortem and radiographic examination. defects occurred in ossification of either the trochanteric zenith or its medial aspect. lesions were identified as dyschondroplasia, osteochondrosis or osteochondrosis dissecans affecting the articular surface of the femoral trochanter. in the absence of concomitant musculoskeletal disease, degrees of lameness can be attributed to trochanteric lesions. breaches in ... | 1985 | 4031131 |

| diversity and structure of genes of the alpha family of mouse t-cell antigen receptor. | we have analysed 19 complementary dna clones encoding the alpha-chain of the t-cell antigen receptor derived from thymic transcripts, and find that 15 of them contain partial or complete variable (v alpha) genes. seven of these genes cross-hybridize to over 40 germline v alpha gene segments in southern blot analyses. of the 19 joining (j alpha) sequences examined, 18 seem to be encoded by distinct gene segments, hence the repertoire of j alpha gene segments is much larger than those of the immun ... | 1985 | 3839904 |
| stoichiometry and kinetics of the interaction of prostaglandin h synthase with anti-inflammatory agents. | we have examined the kinetics, stoichiometry, and chemical nature of the interaction of three anti-inflammatory agents (indomethacin, flurbiprofen, and meclofenamic acid) with pure ovine prostaglandin h synthase. the kinetics of the interaction with the synthase for each of the three agents, monitored by the decrease in cyclooxygenase activity, was consistent with the model proposed by rome and lands (rome, l.h., and lands, w.e.m. (1975) proc. natl. acad. sci. u.s.a. 72, 4863-4865): a rapid and ... | 1985 | 3930499 |
| injections of atropine into the caudate nucleus impair the acquisition and the maintenance of passive avoidance. | two experiments were performed to test the hypotheses that cholinergic activity of the caudate nucleus (cn) is involved in the acquisition and in the maintenance of passive avoidance behavior. rats were trained, in one trial, to avoid one of two compartments of a conditioning box and retention of the task was measured 24 hours later. several doses of atropine were injected into the cn of independent groups of animals. in experiment 1 the atropine was injected 2 minutes after training and in expe ... | 1985 | 3983217 |
| excretion of radioactivity in faeces and urine of rats injected with 3h,14c-lipopolysaccharide. | the route of excretion of lipopolysaccharide (lps) and its possible degradation in vivo was studied in rats using biosynthetically radiolabelled lps from salmonella abortus equi, carrying 3h activity exclusively in fatty acids and 14c activity in fatty acids and sugars. following intravenous injection of the above lps in as2 rats with or without anaesthesia, excretion of radioactivity occurred mainly in the faeces and to smaller extent in urine. the rate of excretion was slow, a large part of th ... | 1985 | 4005148 |
| trends in cancer mortality in italy, 1955-1978. | trends in age-specific and age-standardized cancer death certification rates in italy from 1955 to 1978 were analyzed. in males total cancer mortality rates increased in all age groups. however, when respiratory and other tobacco-related neoplasms were excluded, death certification rates were roughly stable up to age 64. moderate decreases in overall cancer mortality have been apparent at younger ages (35-44) since the early 1970's. in females, all the age-specific and the age standardized, unde ... | 1985 | 4024279 |

| preferential uptake of intravenously administered hyaluronidase (hyalosidase) by damaged rat myocardium. | the induction of myocardial infarction in rats by ligation of the left-anterior coronary artery was confirmed by measurement of increased plasma levels of creatine kinase, aspartate aminotransferase and lactate dehydrogenase. using this model system it has been established that intravenous administration of 125i-labelled hyaluronidase to rats resulted in a preferential uptake of the enzyme by damaged myocardium as compared to normal heart tissue. | 1985 | 4027352 |
| multilayer-enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ml-elisa) for detection of entamoeba histolytica trophozoite coproantigen. | multilayer elisa (ml-elisa) method for entamoeba histolytica trophozoite coproantigen was developed for diagnosis of amoebiasis and its usefulness vis-a-vis microscopic examination analysed for paired specimens from 87 patients from lucknow and hyderabad, india. all the stool specimens positive for trophozoites were also found to be positive in ml-elisa. out of a total 32 samples positive for cysts in microscopy 21 (65.62%) gave positive reactions for coproantigen. results on 26 samples drawn fr ... | 1985 | 2867033 |
| identification of apolipoproteins involved in the interaction of human high density lipoprotein3 with receptors on cultured cells. | human high density lipoprotein (hdl), devoid of apolipoproteins e or b, binds with high affinity and specificity to cultured cells derived from several tissues. in order to investigate the ligand specificity of the putative receptor, we have performed competitive inhibition studies to identify the components of high density lipoprotein that bind to cell surfaces of rat adrenal cortical cells and human skin fibroblasts. radiolabeled hdl3 was displaced with unlabeled apolipoprotein-dimyristoylphos ... | 1985 | 2982866 |
| studies on the mechanism of action of omeprazole. | the effects of omeprazole on preparations of pig gastric (h+ + k+)-atpase have been studied. omeprazole was found to inhibit the (h+ + k+)-atpase activity in a time-dependent manner. inhibition was more pronounced at ph 6.1 compared with ph 7.4 and decreased as the concentration of (h+ + k+)-atpase preparation increased. the potency of omeprazole was therefore highly dependent upon the conditions used. when pre- incubated with (h+ + k+)-atpase preparation (30 micrograms protein/ml) for 30 min at ... | 1985 | 2992525 |

| dose-related effects of synthetic human beta-endorphin and naloxone on fed gastrointestinal motility. | in humans, plasma beta-endorphin levels rise during application of acute stressful stimuli (vertigo, cold pain, and transcutaneous electrical stimulation) that induce gut motor disturbances. whereas it is possible that circulating beta-endorphin participates in the mediation of these central effects on gut motility, its role cannot be established solely on the basis of changes in plasma levels. therefore, we designed the present study to investigate 1) the dose-related effects of intravenous syn ... | 1986 | 2942039 |
| structure-activity relationships of sex steroid analogs determined in vitro in a thyroid hormone-responsive membrane ca2+-atpase model. | physiological concentrations of l-t4 were found previously to stimulate ca2+-atpase activity in vitro in reticulocyte membranes from female rabbits and to inhibit this enzyme in reticulocyte membranes from males. in these previous studies, preincubation of intact cells or ghosts with testosterone (5 x 10(-11) m) converted female-source reticulocyte membranes to male-type responsiveness to thyroid hormone (inhibition of ca2+-atpase activity). preincubation of reticulocyte membranes with 17 beta-e ... | 1986 | 2946570 |
| fine structure of the organic matrix of human pancreatic stones. | pancreatic stones that were removed from the pancreatic ducts of patients with chronic calcifying pancreatitis were decalcified so the organic matrix could be studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. the observations made by scanning electron microscopy were compared with those made on undecalcified stones, and the findings were correlated with light microscopic observations. after the calcium carbonate was removed, the stones consisted of multiple partitions arranged like a spo ... | 1986 | 3575306 |
| insulin stimulates cord blood erythroid progenitor growth: evidence for an aetiological role in neonatal polycythaemia. | polycythaemia in the neonate is a serious pathologic entity which occurs particularly in infants of diabetic mothers (idm) and small-for-gestational age (sga) infants. both of these conditions are associated with fetal hyperinsulinaemia. cultures of cord blood mononuclear cells from polycythaemic idm showed increased growth of late erythroid progenitor colonies, compared to cord blood mononuclear cells from non-polycythaemic infants, reflecting a possible expansion of this progenitor population ... | 1986 | 3539174 |
| relationships between pulmonary inflammation, plasma transudation, and oxygen metabolite secretion by alveolar macrophages. | we have previously shown that alveolar macrophages from normal rabbit lungs do not synthesize reactive oxygen intermediates unless first conditioned by culture in vitro in the presence of serum for 24 to 48 hr. this conditioning process is mediated by a serum constituent that partitions on gel exclusion columns with an apparent m.w. of 30,000 to 50,000 daltons. alveolar macrophage conditioning in vitro requires protein synthesis, is associated with the generation of membrane nadph oxidase activi ... | 1986 | 3486910 |
| a common mechanism of chromosomal translocation in t- and b-cell neoplasia. | the chromosomal breakpoint involved in the t(8;14)(q24;q11) chromosome translocation in the skw-3 cell line, which directly involves the 3' flanking region of the c-myc gene, was cloned and sequenced. the breakpoint on chromosome 8 mapped to a position 3 kb 3' of c-myc while the chromosome 14 breakpoint occurred 36 kb 5' of the gene for the constant region of the alpha chain of the t-cell receptor (tcr). the translocation resulted in a precise rearrangement of sequences on chromosome 8 and what ... | 1986 | 3490692 |
| influence of single neonatal treatment with allylestrenol or diethylstilbestrol on microsomal enzyme activity of rat liver in adulthood. | a single neonatal treatment of rats with a steroid (allylestrenol or diethylstilbestrol) did not alter the later activity of the hepatic microsomal (cytochrome p-450) enzyme system, but inhibited the inducer action of another steroid (testosterone) administered at the age of six weeks. this suggests that a hormonal imprinting-like mechanism also operates in the case of enzymes. | 1986 | 3784633 |
