Inner-city Black women were administered Rosenman and Friedman's A-B interview and invited to discuss stress experiences and traditional coronary heart disease risk factors while their blood pressure was monitored at two-minute intervals. Results revealed the essential reliability of the A-B classification for the sample and demonstrated a general congruence with type A behaviors reported in previous (mostly white male) samples. While type A Black women were not significantly more likely to be hypertensive than type B women, analyses of the intrasubject blood pressure variability revealed an interaction between A-B and hypertensive-normotensive status. Consistent with earlier findings, hypertensives were more variable than normotensives, but this was true only for type Bs; type As were intermediate and not differentiated in their variability. This finding calls attention to the possible adaptive function of type A behavior among stress inner-city Black females and raises the question of whether Rosenman and Friedman's personality theory might be objectionably simplistic.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/244883"}

This study tested the effects of role supplementations, as a preventive nursing intervention, on families who were experiencing a transition from a dyadic to a triadic relationship through the birth of a first child. Three groups--experimental (N = 12), control (N = 36), and FamCap (N = 10)--participated. Participation in the role supplementation prograd did not sharpen communication skills, increase skill in role taking, or increase the congruency in role perceptions. The intervention did help experimental group wives to have lower anxiety scores postdelivery than other wives in the study, although anxiety increased in all subjects. Through role supplementation intervention, experimental wives showed significant differences in their perceptions and attitudes toward ignoring the infant, protectiveness of the infant, and responsiveness of intants' needs.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/244882"}

Graduates of the Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) Program at the University of Vermont, Burlington, were surveyed to determine if the FNPs had enlarged their nursing roles following completion of the program. A sample of Vermont nurses served as a control group. Results of a questionnaire, used to obtain information about the nurses' training, functions, and attitudes, indicated that FNPs performed activities associated with an expanded nursing role more frequently than did their nonpractiioner counterparts. There was evidence that the two groups differed in their attitudes toward various aspects of their nursing roles. The evaluation is an ongoing study; as the number of program graduates increases, further characterization of their roles will be possible.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/244884"}

To identify a common core of process competencies that all masters-prepared nurses are expected to attain, regardless of area of clinical concentration or functional-role goal, a 68-item Process Competency Scale was devised from a conceptual model of the multiple roles of masters-prepared nurses: practitioner, educator, manager, and change agent. Responses from 118 questeionnaires from four groups of respondents revealed that 25 competency items met the criteria established for a core competency. There was uniform agreement that nursing educators should be high-level practitioners and that practitioners of nursing should attain teacher competencies.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/244887"}

Persons with increased intracranial pressure (ICP) from all causes are subject to periods of markedly increased pressure. Research since the initial clinical studies in the early 1960s has focused primarily on characteristics of ICP variations in specific pathologies and on mechanisms basic to increases in ICP rather than on the relationship between basic patient-care activities, such as moving the patient in bed, and variations in ICP. Therefore, nine patients with pressure-controlled ventriculostomy drainage systems were observed continuously for up to 24 hours to determine whate, if any, patient-nurse activities were associated with transient of sustained increased ICP. Frequencies of ventricular fluid drainage (VFD) during activity and nonactivity were compared to predicted frequencies. One patient had no VFD; eight patients had greater than predicted incidence of VFD associated with activity and less than predicted incidence associated with nonactivity. The difference between predicted and actual incidence of VFD was statistically significant (p less than .001) for all eight patients. Although each patient displayed individual patterns of specific activity associated with VFD, turning in bed and conversation about the patient's condition were consistent among the sample. Coughing, chewing use of bedpan, and restless movemenss were consistently associated with VFD in patients.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/244885"}

One hundred and thirty four cases of hypocalcaemia (parturient paresis) between April and Jul 1976 from 72 herds in the UK and Eire were used to compare the response to intravenous treatments with one of three solutions containing calcium salts. Two solutions contained 8 g calcium, one with added magnesium (1.03 g), a third solution contained 6.2 g calcium. The biochemical response obtained 24 hours after successful treatment from all solutions was similar. The clinical response with both 8 g calcium solutions was similar and significantly superior to that obtained with 6.2 g calcium (P less than 0.02 greater than 0.01). More cases (44 per cent) relapsed after treatment with 6.2 g calcium. There was no evidence that the added magnesium to the calcium solution improved the clinical response of parturient paresis cases in this spring claving season, as had been suggested previously. The herds providing these 134 cases had recorded an incidence of 8.04 per cent for parturient paresis in 1975.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/245219"}

The resistance of Salmonellae to drugs has been studied in the Netherlands since 1958. In 1972, 1973, and 1974 respectively, 14241, 13086, and 22927 strains were tested for resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, kanamycin and tetracycline. From 1973 all strains were also tested for resistance to trimethoprim. In the period covered, the yearly incidence of resistance to at least one of the above drugs ranged from 39.2% to 45.6% of all strains obtained from various sources (humans, animals, animal products, sewage, etc.). A new finding in the period 1972 to 1974 was that many multiply resistant strains emerged in S. typhimurium and in S. dublin isolated from calves and cattle. In 1974, 64.4% of all strains of S. typhimurium from these animals appeared to be resistant to ampicillin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol and kanamycin, and 25.5% of those of S. dublin were found to be resistant to chloramphenicol and tetracycline. Of all strains of Salmonellae examined in 1973 and 1974 respectively, 0.15% and 0.22% were resistant to trimethoprim, the main component of the twin-drug cotrimoxazol. Of the 142 strains of S. typhi isolated in 1972 to 1974 two were resistant to tetracycline only, and one was resistant to all four antibiotics. The others had a normal susceptibility pattern.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/245264"}

A method for the isolation and labeling to high specific radioactivity of individual isoaccepting tRNAs is described. After blocking reactive minor bases by acetylation and iodination of the crude tRNA, a single family of isoacceptors was aminoacylated. Individual isoacceptors were separated by chromatography on RPC-5 and then acylated with the 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionyl ester of N-hydroxysuccinimide. The product was purified by chromatography on BD-cellulose and RPC-5. This derivatized tRNA was then iodinated with 125I- and Chloramine-T to give a product containing between 5 X 10(7) and 3 X 10(8) dpm/microgram. The suitability of such labeled tRNAs for hybridization to homologous DNA in solution and cytological preparations of chromosomes is discussed with particular reference to Drosophila melanogaster.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/245309"}

Maize endosperm, 30 days after pollination is actively synthesizing zein, a storage protein containing high amounts of glutamine. leucine and alanine. Endosperm tRNAs have a higher accepting activity than embryo tRNAs for these three amino acids, but not for some other (control) amino acids. This increase in accepting activity is accompanied by a change in the distribution of the isoaccepting tRNA species corresponding to these three amino acids, but not of the isoacceptors corresponding to some other (control) amino acids. These results are in favor of the theory of functional adaptation of tRNA population.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/245310"}

Inactive, frozen and thawed cytoplasmic extracts of 3T3 and SV-101 (3T3 transformed by SV-40 virus) cells contain an inhibitor which blocks the poly(U)-directed incorporation of [14C]phenylalanine into polypeptides, catalyzed by active extracts of these cells. This inhibition is not reversed by adding increased amounts of poly(U). Furthermore, little or no inhibitory activity is observed when poly(U) translation is assayed using precharged [14C]Phe-tRNA. These results suggest that the observed inhibition is not due to the degradation of poly(U) by a nuclease. The inhibitor appears to act primarily at the level of tRNA charging since the synthesis of both Phe-tRNA and Lys-tRNA is impaired in its presence. Evidence is presented which indicates that the inhibitory activity is not due to a high molecular weight protein or nucleic acid. However, the inhibitor appears to be adsorbed to a macromolecule. The inhibitory activity is completely destroyed by ashing.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/245311"}

The decrease in the neural polyribosomes produced during hyperphenylalaninemia could not be restored to normal levels by the injection of other single neutral amino acids. All of the neutral amino acids that are transported with phenylalanine were found to produce an alteration of neural polyribosomes similar to that measured with phenylalanine. However, the injection of a balanced mixture of 6 or 7 neutral amino acids could restore the brain polyribosomes to normal states. Although this experimentally induced recovery did not lower brain phenylalanine concentrations, it did restore the acylation levels of methionyl-tRNA, and in particular, the methionyl-tRNA initiator species. This also led to a concomitant stimulation of the elongation rate of brain polypeptide synthesis. A natural recovery of brain polyribosomal levels (occurring 2 h after 1 mg/g phenylalanine is injected) did not appear to represent a real recovery of neural protein metabolism. Phenylalanine concentrations were increased in the brain, the acylation levels of methionyl-tRNA, alanyl-tRNA and the initiator methionyl-tRNA remained altered, and the rate of ribosome translocation was decreased 28%.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/245312"}

The professional student at various levels could benefit from the experience in this ambulatory setting to aquire skills and explore the concept of promoting health as well as care of illness. Minnesota has been a forerunner in the passage of legislation which informs the citizens as to the expectations they can hold in relation to their health care. A majority of these rights pertain to the informational needs of persons seeking health care. To comply with the law, the health care providers must be cognizant of the law and acquire skills as students to enable the client to be active and intelligent participants in their health care team, in either acceptance or refusal of care.

Fifty-one nursing administrators attending an institute on administration were asked to respond to two questions: \"What is good about conflict?\" \"What is bad about conflict?\" Findings indicated that nursing administrators: made more positive than negative statements about conflict, associated conflict's effects to be greater on people than on task accomplishment, indicated that conflict had greater intrapersonal than interpersonal effects, believed that the beneficial effects of conflict on task accomplishment lie in the realm of problem resolution, and reported that the major negative effects of conflict on task accomplishment were felt on productivity. These findings underscore the complex nature of conflict and its benefits and costs to the individual, organization, and nursing administrator. Views of these nursing administrators are in concert with contemporary behavioral science literature which suggests that conflict is necessary for organizational growth and is not automatically symptomatic of organizational pathology.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/245626"}

Fourteen faculty and 170 junior baccalaureate nursing students were measured at three points in time to determine student preferences for indirect-direct involvement in patient care. Findings did not support the convergence of students' preferences with those of faculty as they progressed through the course. At the completion of the course multiple regressions revealed that students' preferences were associated with preferences they attributed to faculty, their perceptions of faculty reputation among students, students' clinical grades, and their preferences for nursing practice before and after six weeks of the course.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/245636"}

Descriptive data about other factors that influenced women's practice of breast self-examination were obtained. Findings indicated a relationship between positive practice of breast self-examination and positive practices of other preventive health measures in women of health and nonhealth orientation up to 35 years of age and under, but not in those over 35 years of age. Significantly increased breast self-examination practices in women of all ages were reported following Mrs. Ford's mastectomy. Implications favorable to the early detection of breast disease are suggested.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/245637"}

No significant differences were found in the Km and Vmax for phenylalanine or ATP in progeria cells compared with controls. Initial velocities of both progeria and control synthetases were lower at late passage owing to either reduced enzyme content or reduced catalytic efficiency. Reverse phase 5 chromatography of tRNAs acylated by progeria and control synthetases gave a single peak of labeled phenylalanine tRNA in all cases with no secondary peaks evident.

To study the role of purine ribonucleotides as possible regulators of the rate of de novo purine biosynthesis in living human cells, we measured intracellular ribonucleotide concentrations by high-pressure liquid chromatography in a series of cloned human lymphoblast mutants selected by resistance to 8-azaguanine, in which the severity of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) deficiency could be correlated with increases in the rate of de novo purine biosynthesis and increases in intracellular concentrations of phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PP-ribose-P). Compared with appropriate normal controls, intracellular purine ribonucleotide concentrations were not reduced in HGPRT-deficient lymphoblasts but there were striking increases in intracellular concentrations of some pyrimidine nucleotides and nucleotide sugars which appeared to be related to the degree of the deficiency. Similar changes were found in lymphoblasts from a Lesch-Nyhan boy. These data support the hypothesis that the accelerated rate of purine biosynthesis in HGPRT-deficient cells result from increases in intracellular PP-ribose-P concentration and not from changes in intracellular purine ribonucleotide concentrations. The possibility that the abnormality of pyrimidine nucleotide metabolism results from coordinate regulation of purine and pyrimidine biosynthesis by PP-ribose-P was not substantiated by measurement of rates of pyrimidine synthesis and experimental elevation of intracellular concentrations of PP-ribose-P after incubation of cells with inorganic phosphate.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/245991"}
{"pmid": "245992", "title": "Dietary feedback regulation of purine and pyrimidine biosynthesis in man.", "content": "Dietary feedback regulation of purine and pyrimidine biosynthesis in man. Ten days after a healthy person has consumed a purine-free isoenergetic diet, the excretion of (endogenous) uric acid reaches a minimum and remains constant thereafter. Purines are absorbed in different degrees from various biochemical sources added to such a diet--little from DNA, nearly all from ribomononucleotides--presumably owing to different rates of hydrolysis. There is always a linear relationship between dietary purine content and uric acid excretion, independent of the source of purine. The findings suggest that dietary purines play a minor role (if any) in the regulation of purine synthesis, contrary to the conclusions of other workers. The demonstration that oral administration of uridine diminishes the oroticaciduria in patients with hereditary oroticaciduria suggested dietary feedback regulation of pyrimidine biosynthesis by pyrimidine nucleosides in the diet. The reduction of allopurinol-induced oroticaciduria by dietary RNA pointed in the same direction. Closer analysis with RNA hydrolysate and isolated purine as well as pyrimidine nucleotides, however, revealed that not only pyrimidine derivatives but also purine mononucleotides diminish oroticaciduria. The nucleotides had no influence on the change in the activity of orotidine-5'-phosphate decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.23), induced by allopurinol; this makes an effect on the decarboxylase unlikely. The feedback regulation is assumed to act by inhibition of an earlier step.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/245992"}

The possible factors in the pathogenesis of the brain damage and megaloblastic anaemia in the Lesch-Nyhan syndrome are discussed. Disordered growth and function appear to be limited to the brain, bone marrow and general body stature, yet the purine salvage enzyme hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.8, HGPRT), although present in variable amounts in different tissues, is ubiquitous, a fact which suggests that other factors than HGPRT deficiency alone determine the pattern of tissue damage. Recent evidence suggests that the specific tissue damage in the Lesch-Nyhan syndrome is due to lack of NGPRT in tissues with relatively reduced purine de novo capability and a greater dependence on purine salvage pathways at certain stages in their development for their supply of purine ribonucleotides. This evidence is presented together with possible mitigating factors operating in the bone marrow.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/245994"}

Heterozygotes for the Lesch-Nyhan syndrome have normal hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) activity in their erythrocyte lysates. However, HGPRT activity in lysates from heterozygotes for the partial HGPRT deficiency states is often between that seen in the affected hemizygote and the normal. An autoradiographic technique was developed which demonstrated the HGPRT activity in individual erythrocytes in vitro. This technique revealed that heterozygotes for the Lesch-Nyhan syndrome had erythrocytes that contained normal HGPRT activity but heterozygotes for the partial deficiency had two populations of erythrocytes, one with normal HGPRT activity and the other with the reduced HGPRT activity characteristic of the hemizygote. With these latter heterozygotes, the proportion of HGPRT-deficient erythrocytes agreed with that calculated on the basis of enzyme activity in erythrocyte lysates.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/245995"}

In 15 male veterans with moderate-to-severe COPD an ear oximeter was used to measure SaO2 levels while subjects completed a series of percussion, deep breathing, and coughing maneuvers in the head-down position (50 degree angle). No clinically significant changes in SaO2 levels were found in 14 subjects during pulmonary hygiene measures, but potentially dangerous symptoms were noted in two subjects.

Three lines of evidence are presented indicating that GTP hydrolysis associated with eukaryotic peptide initiation occurs in the absence of 60 S subunits when methionyl-tRNAf is bound to 40 S ribosomal subunits. An enzyme fraction required for binding of methionyl-tRNAf to 40 S subunits and peptide initiation, tentatively equated with eIF-(4 + 5), has GTPase activity and appears to be responsible for hydrolysis of GTP in the methionyl-tRNAf.eIF-2.GTP complex. Direct analysis of the methionyl-tRNAf.40 S complex formed with with eIF-2 and [8-3H] guanine, [gamma-32P]GTP reveals bound guanine but not gamma-phosphate. Edeine, a peptide antibiotic containing spermidine and beta-tyrosine residues at its COOH terminus and NH2 terminus, respectively, blocks peptide initiation and interferes with binding of methionyl-tRNAf to 40 S ribosomal subunits. Inhibition of binding is observed when the eIF-2-mediated binding reaction is carried out with GTP but not with guanosine 5'-(beta,gamma-methylene)triphosphate or guanosine 5'-(beta,gamma-imido)triphosphate. Edeine was labeled by iodination and shown to bind with high affinity to 40 S but not to 60 S ribosomal subunits. It is suggested that edeine blocks a specific site on the 40 S ribosomal subunit to which a segment of the methionyl-tRNAf molecule is bound during the course of the initiation reaction sequence.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246033"}

The different ways in which the progesterone requirements of pregnancy are met in various species are reviewed here. Progesterone production expressed in terms of metabolic body weight lies within about one order of magnitude in several species (but not in the rat), whether the hormone is predominantly ovarian or placental in origin. Parturition is usually preceded by a decrease in the plasma concentration of progesterone and the evidence which suggests that a decrease in secretion involves enzyme induction is summarized. In the sheep a sequence of well-marked hormonal changes can be discerned--an increase in fetal cortisol secretion followed by a fall in placental progesterone and a rise in oestrogen and prostaglandin F2alpha secretion. This sequence has been interpreted in terms of hierarchical control theory which envisages a series of levels placed in a descending order of importance and in which there is a downward transmission of a signal from a higher level that modifies activity at a lower level. A dominant level in the hierarchy in the sheep and pig seems to be the fetal hypothalamus and pituitary, but in the rabbit the maternal hypothalamus, pituitary and ovary play a more dominant role.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246390"}

The evidence which suggests a role for prostaglandins in parturition is reviewed, with special reference to experimental observations on the rat. The pregnant uterus can both synthesize and metabolize prostaglandins. The biosynthetic capacity of the rat uterus increases as pregnancy proceeds. This increase, which is especially marked during the last few days of pregnancy, may be oestrogen-controlled. During pregnancy the tissue levels of the major prostaglandin-metabolizing enzyme, 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.141) is greatly increased. This may prevent aberrant production of prostaglandins from terminating the pregnancy prematurely. The capacity for prostaglandin metabolism begins to fall (perhaps under hormonal control) as the expected day of delivery approaches; this, coupled with an augmented biosynthesis, produces a net increase in uterine prostaglandins which contribute to the process of parturition by causing a decrease in progesterone concentration, increasing the muscular tone of the uterus, and altering uterine haemodynamics. Agents which block either prostaglandin synthesis or metabolism delay or accelerate the parturition process in the rat.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246392"}

Dilatation of the cervix at parturition necessitates changes in the physical characteristics of cervical collagen and glycosaminoglycans which are probably hormone-dependent. The infusion of prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha) into the arterial blood supply to uterus and cervix of sheep pregnant for about 125 days resulted in cervical dilatation after 24 hours but this response was inconsistent; one factor affecting the response appeared to be the progesterone status, low circulating progesterone being associated with dilatation. Preliminary experiments in goats in which pregnancy is terminated by removal of the corpora lutea at day 125, subject to modification by the administration of progesterone, indomethacin or PGF2alpha, support the view that PGF2alpha evokes softening and dilatation of the cervix but that this is blocked by progesterone.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246393"}

The possibility that the fetal brain or pituitary either initiates parturition or influences the course of labour was studied in human and rat. The results when corticotropin or neurohypophysial hormones were injected directly into human anencephalic fetuses in utero, and data obtained from 147 clinical records of such fetuses, seemed to show that the fetal brain does not trigger the onset of parturition. On the other hand, the course of labour was seriously protracted in anencephalic fetuses. Gestation length of brain-aspirated rat fetuses was not significantly longer than in sham-operated controls. However, the course of labour was protracted in the brain-aspirated fetuses. A similarly protracted expulsion pattern was observed in Brattleboro rats homozygous for a hypothalamic form of diabetes insipidus. These data all pointed to the likelihood that fetal neurohypophysial hormones stimulate the course of labour. Neither oxytocin nor vasopressin could be demonstrated in the rat fetus on the last day of pregnancy, when specific immunofluorescence was used. However, a closely related compound was found that was identified as most probably being vasotocin. The hypothesis is put forward that this fetal hormone normally stimulates the course of labour.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246394"}

The mechanisms for transport and hydrolysis of lactose were investigated in five cariogenic strains (HS6, AHT, FA1, NCTC 10449, and SL1) representing the four serogenetic groups of Streptococcus mutans. The systems for transport and hydrolysis of lactose had the characteristics of a phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)-dependent lactose (Lac) phosphotransferase (PT) system and phospho-beta-galactosidase (P-beta-gal), respectively, in all strains tested, except strain HS6. Decryptified cells required PEP and Mg(2+) for transport of the non-metabolizable model beta-galactosides o-nitrophenyl-beta-d-galactopyranoside (ONPG) and thiomethyl-beta-d-galactopyranoside (TMG). Substitution of 2-phosphoglycerate (2-PG) for PEP also stimulated the Lac PT system. Other potential high-energy phosphate donors (adenosine tri-, di-, and monophosphates and guanosine triphosphate) did not stimulate the Lac PT system. Sodium fluoride had no effect upon the PEP-dependent Lac PT system in decryptified cells with PEP as the energy source; however, when 2-PG was used as the energy source, F(-) inhibited ONPG phosphorylation. With intact cells which must generate PEP endogenously, the presence of F(-) in concentration >/= 10 mM completely inhibited the Lac PT system, presumably through inhibition of 2-PG hydrolyase (EC 4.2.1.11; enolase). Both intact and decryptified cells accumulated a phosphorylated derivative of TMG that behaved chromatographically as TMG-phosphate. After alkaline phosphatase treatment, the derivative had an R(f) identical to that of TMG. No beta-galactosidase (beta-gal) activity was detected with ONPG as the substrate; hydrolysis occurred only when ONPG-6-phosphate was supplied as the substrate. Strain HS6 apparently transported lactose by an active transport-type system in which the accumulated intracellular product was the free disaccharide based on the following criteria: (i) ONPG transport and hydrolysis in decryptified cells was not stimulated by PEP; (ii) ONPG hydrolysis occurred in the absence of PEP; and (iii) ONPG-6-phosphate was not hydrolyzed. These data indicate that, in all strains tested except strain HS6, lactose transport was mediated by a PEP-dependent Lac PT system, resulting in accumulation of lactose-phosphate that was hydrolyzed by an enzyme similar to the P-beta-gal of group N streptococci and Staphylococcus aureus; conversely, strain HS6 transported and hydrolyzed lactose by a PEP-independent transport system and beta-gal, respectively.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246429"}

Women who choose to use oral contraceptives generally make that decision without sufficient factual information concerning alternative methods of birth control.  Information about the side effects of oral contraceptives is provided, but women are not in a position to adequately evaluate these risks, unless they have also received complete and impartial information on alternative methods.  A number of biases on the part of physicians and other family planning personnel preclude an impartial delivery of this information.  Family planners tend to favor oral contraceptives and IUDs over condoms and foam, a bias enhanced by the fact that the former methods have been studied extensively and are supported with use-effectiveness rates.  The latter methods have not been as thoroughly studied and information, such as use-effective rates for foams and condoms in combination, is not available.  The current attitude, that adolescents, minority women, and young mothers with several children are in need of the most highly effective birth control method does little to encourage an unprejudiced presentation of other methods.  Prescribing the pill is also more convenient and saves the time of the clinician.  The author calls upon clinicians to become aware of their biases and women to assert their right to make an \"informed choice.\"", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246460"}

{"pmid": "246496", "title": "Testing with puromycin and amino acyl tRNAs that limit the rate of peptide chain extension.", "content": "Testing with puromycin and amino acyl tRNAs that limit the rate of peptide chain extension. With puromycin one can recognize when the synthesis of a given protein is dependent on amino acyl tRNA that is present in rate limiting amount. We demonstrate this use of puromycin by its interaction with another inhibitor, L-o-methylthreonine. L-o-methylthreonine lowers the Ile-tRNA concentration in the cell, thereby inhibiting synthesis of proteins containing isoleucine. In certain rabbits, the alpha hemoglobin chain has three isoleucyl residues and the beta chain none. L-o-methylthreonine thus inhibits alpha globin synthesis in intact reticulocytes from these rabbits. When puromycin and L-o-methylthreonine are used together, the two inhibitors synergize in inhibiting alpha globin synthesis. Hence, puromycin is a more effective inhibitor when the Ile-tRNA concentration is lowered. Cycloheximide and sodium fluoride have different modes of action from puromycin. Neither synergizes with L-o-methylthreonine; instead, the interaction is less than additive. We have found that beta chain synthesis in rabbit reticulocytes is more sensitive than alpha to inhibition by puromycin. This difference could reflect either differences in amino acid sequence or tRNA dependent limitations of beta chain elongation. The switch from fetal to adult hemoglobin in humans does not involve changes in limiting amino acyl tRNA because, for cord blood from infants of different developmental ages, the puromycin sensitivity of incorporation into gamma and beta chains remains constant.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246496"}

Combination therapy, cefazolin sodium and gentamicin sulfate in patient 1 and penicillin G and gentamicin in patient 2, was necessary; synergy, as manifested by lethal activity against the infecting strains, was demonstrated in the laboratory.

The effect of different sera on aspartyl-tRNA in culture. In normal tissues aspartyl tRNA is present in 3 separable components by RPC-5-chromatography, 2 small and early eluting peaks and a major component designated rRNAAspIII. A late eluting peak, tRNAAspIV has also been found in many tumors of human and animals origin, and in BHK 21/13 cells grown in culture, where 27% or more of the total aspartate acceptance occurs in this peak. In contrast, normal tissue studied, i.e., hamster liver or kidney, exhibits less than 2.0% of the total aspartyl tRNA as the late eluting tRNAAspIV. Increasing the level of fetal calf serum in the medium from 5 to 15% resulted in a change from 0.79 to 1.83 in the ratio of tRNAAspIII--tRNAAspIV in BHK cells. Utilizing sera from different species, the percentage of tRNAAspIV was found to vary between 26.8 and 66.0% while the combined percentages of tRNAAspIII and tRNAAspIV varied between 59.5 and 80.8%. It appears that the increased tRNAAspIII was derived from tRNAAspIV and vice versa indicating that there may be a close structural relationship between tRNAAspIII and tRNAAspIV. It was also observed that BHK tumor cells or ascitic fluid enhanced the appearance of tRNAAspIV in normal host liver.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246753"}

{"pmid": "246778", "title": "Selective homogenous and heterogeneous catalysis.", "content": "Selective homogenous and heterogeneous catalysis. Catalysis of organic reactions by micellar aggregates in aqueous solution lacks synthetic utility in its present state, largely for two reasons: first, the selectivity attainable in a loose unstructured micelle is low, with little possibility of attaining the degree of substrate differentiation possible in enzymes, and, second, the scale of reaction is limited, since surfactant must be in large excess over reactant to avoid swamping of the catalytic effect. The discussion will cover initial attempts to overcome these drawbacks. Increased selectivity is apparent in the promotion of ester hydrolysis by micelles of asymmetric chain-functionalized surfactants. In the most favourable circumstances 3:1 discrimination in the rate of reaction of ester enantiomers may be observed. Increased scale of reaction is obtainable when polymer-linked cationic surfactants are used as insoluble catalysts, and these hold promise for various anionactivation reas are used as insoluble catalysts, and these hold promise for varous anion-activation reactions.

The enzyme carboxypeptidase A has been extensively studied and is thus a good candiate for chemical models and imitation. A model system was constructec which combined two of the three catalytic functional groups of the enzyme together with the appropriate substrate group, and cooperative effective catalysis was demonstrated. However, the mechanism which the model system used in enzyme-like conditions was unexpected, and this led to a study of the enzyme itself. Carboxypeptidase A was studied by examination of oxygen-18 exchange reactions and the ability of the enzyme to substitute only lytic agents, such as methanol, forthe water which is normally used. The result of these studies is proposed mechanism of action of this enzyme which accommodates the large amount of information already available, and which indicates that this enzyme uses a mechanism similar to that found in the model system. Approaches have also been made to an artificial enzyme which could hydrolyse amides. Cyclodextrin has been functionalized with two imidazole groups placed on opposite sides of the cavity. This material catalyses the hydrolysis of an amide, which binds to the cyclodextrin cavity and then is hydrolysed with the assistance of one imidazole in its basic form and the other one in its protonated form, acting together in a way reminiscent of the cooperation of some of the functional groups of hydrolytic enzymes.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246779"}

This progress could not have been made had not isotopes of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen become available in quantity at a time when the intellectual climate was right for their penetrating application in biosynthetic research. It was by his generation of far-reaching ideas about biosynthesis that Sir Robert Robinson made such a major contribution to establishing this right climate. His thinking pointed the way for many studies on living systems. Several examples will be discussed which were of particular interest to Sir Robert, such as the biosynthesis of morphine and colchicine, and another topic which is currently at a fascinating stage of development, the biosynthesis of natural porphyrins. New equipment and techniques, especially 13C n.m.r. spectroscopy and high-pressure liquid chromatography, have helped in a borad study of the biochemical conversion of porphobilinogen into uroporphyrinogen-III which must be formed by some rearrangement process.

Several phenols, including models of the phenolic ring A of tetracycline, gave o-hydroxydienones, with quinones and phenylselenated species as by-products, when treated with diphenylseleninic anhydride. When the phenols were converted into their corresponding anions before treatment with the anhydridide, the o-hydroxydienones were obtained in good yield free from other products arising from reaction at the para position. When phenols were added to a warm solution of diphenylseleninic anhydride, they were oxidized to the o-quinones even when the phenols were not substituted in para position.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246782"}

The contribuation made by Sir Robert Robinson to sesquiterpene chemistry and to the development of the biogenetic isoprene rule are discussed. Examaples of the great utility of the Robinson Ring Annelation in synthetic organic chemistry are given with reference to steroid and sesquiterpene systems. Recent modifications to the original method are also mentioned. The close relationship of the eremophilane sesquiterpenes and the spiro sesquiterpenes, which follows from the biogenetic derivation of eremophilone by Robinson, is the basis for the synthetic strategy under discussion leading to chiral spiro sesquiterpenes. This approach makes use of chiral starting material couples with subsequent stereospecific processes leading to sesquiterpenes of stereochemical interest and complexity.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246783"}
{"pmid": "246784", "title": "Rules for ring closure.", "content": "Rules for ring closure. The ease of formation of cyclic structures shows some regularity which can be described by a set of 'rules' for ring closure. The restrictions on the endocyclic transfer of groups due to SN2 displacements having linear transition states are exemplified by studied on a biogenetic type synthesis of penicillin and, more generally, on the endocyclic attack of a nucleophile attached by a linking chain to an enone or polarized double bond. The formation of five-memebered rings is considered. In base, enones such as 4-hydroxy- and 4-amino-2-methylenebutanoates close exocyclically to give the corresponding five-membered lactones and lactams, respectively. Hydroxymethyl vinyl ketones, however, do not cyclize in base. In strong acid, hydroxy-enones close endocyclically to five-membered ring, as in the formation of cyclic ethylene ketals from acetone and ethanediol. The endocyclic closure of nucleophilic centres to polarized double bonds to give five-membered rings is impeded by restrictions of geometry; these restrictions can be overcome in acid through the generation of oxonium or protonated forms.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246784"}

When CHO cells are incubated under conditions of extreme amino acid starvation, effected by withdrawal of an amino acid from the medium together with genetic or chemical interference with the activity of the corresponding aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase, there is a rapid and profound decline in the functional capacity of the protein synthetic machinery. The effect was observed for all amino acids tested including leucine, asparagine, histidine, methionine and glutamine. This decline in protein synthetic potential appears to be due to a progressive permanent inactivation of the specific aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase concerned, as shown by a decline in the amount of cellular, specific aminoacyl-tRNA and a decline in the cell-free enzyme activity, measured after reversal of the starvation conditions. When cells are left for more than several hours under these starvation conditions, they shrink in size, lose viability and eventually disintegrate, with anomalous rapidity. We suggest that the progressive loss of protein synthetic capacity of the cells is the prime cause of these subsequent events. If the starvation conditions are reversed before cell death, regeneration of the protein synthetic potential occurs rapidly but requires protein synthesis itself, implying the existence of strong control mechanisms for cellular aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase activities.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246869"}

A systematic program to improve health and survival for the 6651 preschool children in Hanover Parish, Jamaica began in 1973.  Regular anthropometric surveillance ensured early identification of malnourished children in whose homes nutritional advice was then provided.  In addition some children were provided with supplemental dried skim milk and basic medical care.  The program was begun in the eastern half of the parish in 1974; it was thus possible to observe sequential decline in the prevalence of malnutrition and mortality.  10.9% of the children in the eastern section were considered to be malnourished at the start of the program in 1973; by 1974 that figure was 5.9% and the number in the west where the program was just beginning was 13%.  By 1975 the prevalence in both sections was about 6.4%.  In addition the mortality rate was 14.5/1000 before the program and 6/1000 afterwards, a drop of 60%.  Other factors which might have influenced these conditions were not found to be significant.  These tests confirm earlier findings in Jamaica that even a simple program such as this could provide substantial improvement of child health in rural areas of developing countries.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/246945"}

This paper discusses 2 problems associated with evaluation of school health education programs: 1) why evaluate at all; and 2) what criteria, assuming a need to evaluate the programs, are most appropriate for assessing program effectiveness?  The need for evaluation arises from public interest in and concern for health promotion and prevention.  Given the need to educate the population for purposes of prevention, the specific immediate function of school health education must be clarified so that programs are not judged on outcome criteria that are inappropriate or unrealistic.  To this end, school health educators are encouraged to view their teaching tasks in the proper perspective, one of the potentially valuable factors for improving the quality of life of the population served.  School programs should especially apply themselves to evaluative research activities addressed to behavioral and health effects to demonstrate the relationships between health education in the school and the benefits the student will accrue over time.  In essence, then, school programs should focus on modifying behaviors which will be used to prevent disease or ill health prior to the signs or symptoms of illness.  It is emphasized that attempts to establish immediate behavior change as goals of school programs would be naive.  Federal and state initiatives are needed to support the necessary cost-benefit studies and the long-term evaluations required for policy decisions concerning school health education programs.  Local support is adequate to perform short-term studies of impact on knowledge and skills of specific health education programs.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/247090"}

It derives from pride in the accomplishments made by nurses of the past; from discontent with the meager influence that nurses now have; and from anticipation of a future that will be created when a critical mass of nurses are provided opportunities for completing pre-service doctoral study. It derives from confidence that those nurses can and will so influence the health care system that all persons will be properly served with care that promotes their health, restores their function,, and enhances their independence in knowledgeably exploiting their own health-seeking behaviors.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/247357"}

In this article, we have attempted to describe the process of change that occurred within two specific groups of the nursing administrative staff. When we began working with the individuals within this group of nursing managers, each possessed the skills and abilities that met the needs of the system and its concept of nursing at that time. Through discussion of issues related to nursing and nursing management, the clinical supervisors and head nurses developed an expanded concept of their responsibilities related to patient, personnel, and operational management. The initial actions we encouraged them to take related to increasing their involvement in providing direct patient care. Following this, they became more active in the areas of personnel and operational management. Our ultimate goal was to promote their active involvement in all three areas of management. At times, we became impatient with what seemed to be a slow process of change. We believed, however, that it was imperative to move slowly and not push for change beyond their level of readiness. As one of the clinical supervisors recently stated, \"Change is fast; progress is slow.\" Within this group of nursing managers, changes have been made, the goals are being met, and progress is indeed apparent.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/247368"}

Many established nursery routines are in conflict with the physician's responsibility to the infant and the needs of the mother.

Unless a problem is suspected immediately, this first hour of life is not the time for a thorough examination.

Stitt indicates that the two most common reasons why women decline to breast-feed are (1) embarassment about their lack of knowledge of techniques and (2) fear of failure. Nurses are in a unique position to intervene constructively in both instances. It is essential for nurses to explore their own feelings about breast-feeding and sexuality and to help each other recognize how attitudes and values affect care.

Secretion of Ca and PO4 into the stomach and intestines was measured separately. Parathyroidectomy resulted in a negative balance for Ca and PO4 and an accompanying fall in plasma Ca and PO4 concentrations. In the case of PO4 this response was attributed primarily to a reduced intestinal absorption, but for Ca increases in urinary excretion and intestinal secretion also contributed significantly. Secretion of PO4 to the stomach was reduced but endogenous PO4 excretion in the faeces was unchanged which indicated a reduced reabsorption of secreted PO4 by the intestines.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/247531"}

Pulmonary vasomotor actions of histamine and the possible relationship of histamine to hypoxic pulmonary vasconstriction were studied in anaesthetized cats with one lobe of lung perfused at constant flow and in isolated perfused rat and ferret lungs. In the cat histamine caused dilatation, biphasic responses and constriction with increasing doses. Histamine induced dilatation was better demonstrated during hypoxic vasoconstriction and was reduced by an H2 histamine antagonist; constriction with histamine was abolished by an H1 antagonist. Histamine also caused both vasodilatation and vasoconstriction in ferret lungs. A mast cell stabilizing agent had no effect on hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction in cats or rats. This response was unaffected in cats but greatly reduced in rats and ferrets by cyproheptadine, a combined histamine and 5-hydroxy-tryptamine inhibitor. It was unaffected in cats but abolished in ferrets an H1 histamine inhibitor. It was again unaffected in cats but greatly reduced in rats and ferrets by an H2 histamine inhibitor. These species differences may reflect differences in mechanism but more probably reflect non-specific effects of the inhibitors in certain circumstances. However, when drugs nearly abolished hypoxic vasoconstriction, ATP still caused vasoconstriction.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/247533"}

The present electrophysiological study shows that methacholine (MCh), generally regarded as a muscarinic agonist, stimulates the carotid chemoreceptors in pentobarbitone anaesthetized cats. The response consisted of a primary increase in discharge, attributable to nicotinic actions of MCh since it was unaffected by atropine but abolished by mecamylamine, and a delayed secondary increase in discharge, due mainly to bronchoconstriction evoked by MCh. Physostigmine caused similar potentiation of responses to acetylcholine and MCh which implies that acetylcholinesterase is located close to the site(s) at which the drugs act to stimulate chemoreceptor activity. The findings are in agreement with the general principle that chemosensory activity is increased by nicotinic agonists but not by muscarinic agonists.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/247534"}

The effects of intravenous infusion of ornithine-vasopressin (OVP) and desamino-D-arginine-vasopressin (dDAVP) were studied in normal and hydrated Merino sheep. In normal sheep, OVP resulted in a diuresis, increased urinary sodium and potassium excretion, and a fall in the plasma potassium concentration. Renal plasma flow remained constant but glomerular filtration rate and filtration fraction rose markedly. dDAVP in normal sheep was antidiuretic, but its only significant effect was a small decrease in plasma osmolality. In the hydrated sheep OVP was antidiuretic and resulted in increased urinary excretion of sodium and potassium, and a fall in the plasma potassium level. Renal plasma flow fell, but glomerular filtration and filtration fraction tended to rise. dDAVP in the hydrated sheep was also antidiuretic but urinary sodium and potassium excretion was reduced. Renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration fell, with a small decrease in filtration fraction. These results suggest that the diuretic effect in normal sheep and the electrolyte-excreting effects in both normal and hydrated sheep of OVP are related to the increase in glomerular filtration, which in turn is dependent on the vasopressor activity of the hormone. The increase in glomerular filtration caused by OVP is due to an increase in the filtration fraction of an unchanged renal plasma flow, which could be brought about by an increase in renal efferent arteriolar tone. The effects of hydration of the sheep were the conventional increased urine flow, decreased urine osmolality and decreased solute-free water reabsorption. Sodium and potassium excretion rose slightly and plasma osmolality fell. Renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration both increased with little change in filtration fraction. These effects could be brought about by suppression of endogenous vasopressin and a decrease in both afferent and efferent renal arteriolar tone.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/247535"}

Measurements of total body oxygen consumption, visceral and hepatic blood flow, oxygen consumption, exchanges of amino acids, lactate, pyruvate and glucose were made on sheep fed 3--6 h or 21 h before the experiment and exposed for 3 h to a neutral environment (15 degrees C) or a cold environment (0.5 to 4 degrees C with clipped coat and wind speed 2 m.s-1). Recent feeding significantly increasedd the total oxygen consumption and the oxygen consumption of the viscera and liver. No general release of amino acids from the viscera or uptake by the liver after feeding was detected although the arterial plasma concentration of essential amino acids did increase significantly after feeding. The plasma concentration of most non-essential amino acids also increased except that of glycine, which decreased significantly. Cold exposure increased the total oxygen consumption and reduced the respiratory quotient significantly. Release of amino acids from the viscera was stimulated by cold exposure. There was a variable increase in the hepatic uptake of lactate and alanine when the sheep were fasted and cold-exposed. The liver's glucose output doubled and the blood (arterial) glucose concentration significantly increased in the cold.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/247536"}

The combination of ticarcillin plus tobramycin (TT) or carbenicillin plus gentamicin (CG) was used to treat 82 patients with severe systemic gram-negative infection in a prospective, randomized study. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was the primary pathogen in 7 (93 per cent) of these patients. Patients treated with TT responded more frequently (92 per cent or 37 of 40) than patients treated with CG (71 per cent or 30 of 42) (p is less than 0.05). This difference was primarily due to a greater response to TT in patients with pulmonary infections (93 per cent versus 68 per cent) and infections due to Pseudomonas (92 per cent versus 70 per cent). Severity of underlying disease was also an important determinant of response. Except for a greater incidence of hepatotoxicity with CG (23 per cent versus 3 per cent; p is less than 0.02), there was no difference in toxicity, colonization with drug-resistant microorganisms or superinfection between the two treatment groups. The combination of TT appears to be superior to CG for the treatment of pulmonary infections due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/247895"}

Glucagon subserves the role of homeostasis by maintaining plasma glucose and of a stress hormone by producing hyperglycaemia. While control of glucagon release by circulating metabolites and also other hormones is clearly important, it seems likely that the nervous system exerts an over-riding influence. The parasympathetic nervous system maintains homeostasis and the sympathetic acts in stress. Glucagon levels are found to be high in cirrhosis and also after acute hepatic failure. It is likely that these changes in glucagon concentration are secondary to metabolic abnormalities. While some glucagon is cleared by the liver, a similar clearance is seen by many other tissues and it is not likely that the elevation of glucagon seen in liver failure is due solely to a gross deficiency of glucagon clearance. No liver abnormality is seen in the glucagonoma syndrome, where glucagon concentration are chronically high, or in patients who have had a total pancreatectomy, where plasma glucagon is undetectably low. It thus seems unlikely that liver mass is importantly controlled by glucagon.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/247999"}

Liver perfusion can be measured sequentially by monitoring the clearance of 85krypton injected into the portal circulation. Preliminary studies in dogs show that the method reflects gas clearance from a homogeneously perfused liver parenchyma and correlates well with measurements of total hepatic blood flow. The method has been adapted to measurement of liver blood flow in normal rats, partially hepatectomized rats and after portacaval transposition with and without partial hepatectomy. There is a marked rise of approximately 250% in the first four hours after partial hepatectomy in the rat. After portacaval trans-position, liver blood flow remains within the normal range and no great rise occurs after partial hepatectomy. In animals subjected to portacaval transposition, there is a reduction in relative liver weight (liver weight/body weight ratio) and when partial hepatectomy is performed three weeks after portacaval transposition, the relative liver weight is regained within three weeks, and does not differ from that of non-hepatectomized controls. DNA synthetic activity, studied during the 72 hours after partial hepatectomy performed three weeks after portacaval transposition, shows an uptake of tritiated thymidine into liver DNA of the same magnitude as and contemporaneous with that of controls. Liver atrophy after portal diversion is not a result of a decrease in absolute liver blood flow.

The effect is striking, being preceded by massive glycogen deposition and water imbibition as well as enchanced RNA and protein synthesis. More recently we have directly confirmed the stimulatory effects of insulin on liver RNA and glycogen synthesis in intact hepatocytes isolated from normal and diabetic rats. The hepatocytes specifically bind insulin (KD = 3.5X10(-9) M) and the bound hormone is degraded systematically, indicating the possibility of receptor-mediated uptake of the hormone. Recent studies in other laboratories of the growth factors, non-suppresible insulin-like activity (NSILA) and nerve growth factor (NGF), as well as of relaxin, have disclosed structural relationships between these peptides and pro-insulin, indicating the existence of families of closely related anabolic effectors.

After partial liver resection DNA synthesis reached peak levels after 24 hours while serum concentrations of immunoreactive insulin in portal and peripheral blood at this time were still suppressed. Increase of endogenous insulin levels by intravenous glucose infusion or portal infusion of insulin, glucagon or both together with glucose did not change DNA synthesis in normal or regenerating rat liver. After acute carbon tetrachloride poisoning of rats, survival rate and degree of liver necrosis was not changed by intraperitoneal infusion of glucagon and insulin with glucose. In vitro, insulin, glucagon and somatostatin synergistically stimulated the specific thymidine uptake in seven-day-old maintenance cultures of rat hepatocytes. The hormones did not cause cell multiplication but enhanced cell survival, probably by improving the uptake and utilization of nutrients. Gastrin G-17, secretin and cholecystokinin (contaminated with gastric inhibitory polypeptide) had no effect. It is concluded that the results do not support the contention that liver regeneration is regulated by the known pancreatic hormones.

An analysis of hepatocellular proliferation in regenerating rat liver reveals a dependence of kinetic parameters on the microvascular structure of the liver. Influx kinetics of hepatocytes into DNA synthesis as well as cell cycle phases vary in different parts of the liver lobule between the afferent and efferent vascular poles. Heterogeneity of the proliferative response and size limitations on cell cycle compartments appear to be intimately related to the actual functional state of the individual liver cell. Modifications of liver cell functions result in variations of the proliferative activity. Phenobarbital-induced hypertrophy of hepatocytes reveals a permissive action on G1- S influx. Selective destruction of the subpopulations, by allyl formate, leads to a new functional determination of the residual liver and to a change in proliferative compartments. Maximum modulation of cell cycle compartments is obtained by hydroxyurea-induced synchronization of hepatocytes after partial liver resection. During hydroxyurea treatment, the regenerating liver shows a pronounced cellular hypertrophy. After release from hydroxyurea block, cells embark on DNA synthesis simultaneously. The DNA synthesizing compartment comprises almost the entire liver cell population.

Fractionation of the native glycoprotein from the cat by gel chromatography in the presence of urea and dithiothreitol suggests a value of about 3 X 10(6) for the molecular weights. The chief monosaccharide constituents are N-acetylneuraminic acid, N-acetylglucosamine, N-acetylgalactosamine, fucose and galactose. In the goose tracheal mucin, mannose is present (serum proteins being absent). Doubly labelled cat mucus, obtained by giving Na235SO4 and [3H]glucose simultaneously into the lumen of the trachea, is massively released by parasympathetic agents, e.g. pilocarpine. The resulting mucus has a high content of 35S and is derived largely from submucosal gland cells. Subsequent exposure to an irritant, ammonia, releases a low sulphation fraction, highly labelled with 3H, arising from goblet cells. Evidence supports the view that the overall mucus is composed of mixed secretions, chemically distinct, from different cellular synthesizing sites.

Variations in upper respiratory defence mechanisms may bear some relationship to the aetiology of small airway disease in the lungs.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248012"}

Rats were exposed to influenza B virus for 2 hours. Mucociliary function in the isolated airway preparation of these animals was studied from the first day after exposure and at regular intervals for up to 190 days. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies were done at times corresponding to the mucociliary function studies. TEM studies confirmed the results of the mucociliary function studies: pathological changes were first apparent three days after exposure and began in the distal bronchioles. The morphological studies further demonstrated that the infection progressed proximally to include the entire tracheobronchial tree by the 18th day. The alterations observed included an increase in the number of goblet cells, a decrease in the number of microvilli and a reduction in the amount of interciliary fluid. The last two changes were closely correlated with the severity of the infection. The abnormalities found in mucociliary function included hypersecretion of mucus, inactive and hypoactive zones, synchronization of cilia beating, and a sticking together of the cilia tips.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248013"}

The site of attachment of the first sugar, N-acetylgalactosamine, to the seryl and threonyl residues of the protein chain is unknown in exocrine cells. The subsequent sugars of the carbohydrate side chains, galactose and N-acetylglucosamine alternately, and the end-group sugars, galactose, N-acetylgalactosamine and fucose, are attached in the Golgi complex. Sulphate too is attached in that structure. In the stomach, sulphate is probably transferred in the most mature cisterna of the Golgi stacks, galactose and fucose in other cisternae, suggesting a gradient in transferase activities along the stack. The possibilities of regulating the amount and relative sugar composition of the glycoproteins are discussed. The secretory product is stored in granules. Their polygonal, large and swollen appearance and complex formation by loss of bordering membranes, as observed in many kinds of glycoprotein-secreting cells ('mucous cells') might be caused by ineffective fixation techniques. Direct vascular perfusion results in a picture no different from what is found in non-mucous cells. Whether secretion is merely exocytotic, as in non-mucous cells, or whether it is accompanied by a loss of membrane and even cytoplasm needs thorough investigation, with the effects of various fixation techniques being compared.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248014"}

In chronic bronchitis, disorders of the physical and chemical properties of mucus may contribute to bronchial obstruction. The abnormalities are analysed in sputum collected by physiotherapy. Measurements of the rheological properties (apparent viscosity and strain recovery), content analysis of secretory immunoglobulin A (S-IgA) and of serum albumin, and determination of the transport velocity of sputum on the ciliated frog palate provide reliable indices of the functional capacity of bronchial mucosa. The effectiveness of mucociliary clearance and coughing is analysed in patients by measuring the rate of removal of radioactive particles deposited on proximal airways. Different types of pathological secretions may be observed. In subjects with occasional cough and sputum, the secretions are characterized by a high content of S-IgA and serum albumin, and a high viscosity and low elasticity, reflecting their high degree of cross-linking. In chronic bronchitics, the S-IgA content and viscoelastic properties of sputum decrease as the illness progresses. During infection, purulent sputum exhibits high viscosity and low strain recovery. Such modifications of the rheological properties of mucus may impair mucociliary clearance. The role of the elastic component is predominant. Sputum, characterized by very low strain recovery (SR less than 4 units) or conversely by very high strain recovery (SR greater than 15 units), is transported at a low rate by mucociliary clearance. A marked hyperviscosity (no greater than 200 poises (120 N s m-2)) also appears as a limiting factor of the mucociliary clearance.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248016"}

Hypersecretion of mucus is a feature of several clinical diseases and in some is associated with mucous gland hypertrophy and goblet cell increase. In a variety of species these changes have been produced by irritants, by infection, or by administration of drugs. While the end result may appear the same, differences emerge in the type and amount of glycoprotein secreted and in the amount retained within the cell. Organ culture can be used to ascertain functional activity. The use of animal models has not only established that these environmental changes cause hypertrophy but indicated some of the intracellular events associated with their development. When new types of granules appear within a cell, they appear first at the apex: a flow chart is offered of the way of which individual cells change and hence the population. The nature of glycoprotein elaborated by a secretory cell can change within hours. A Clara or serous cell can develop into a mucus-secreting or goblet cell.

In the cat and goose, studies have been undertaken to determine the ultrastructure of airway epithelia, the concentration and distribution of the secretory cells which produce respiratory tract mucus, and the histochemistry of mucins located within cells and on their luminal surfaces. By electron microscopy all the 11 cell types so far described can be found in the airways of the cat but not the goose. Both goblet cells and submucosal glands are abundant in the cat whereas the trachea of goose lacks the latter, having instead abundant goblet cells many of which form 'intraepithelial glands'. Histochemically, the goblet cells of the cat and goose are similar in that they contain mucins with a predominance of sulphate esters. A surface mucosubstance can be demonstrated which, histochemically, is similar to that described in dog and man. Interestingly, this surface layer may be sloughed in response to an inhaled irritant such as ammonia and thereby contribute to the respiratory tract mucus recovered experimentally. Incorporation into macromolecules of radioactively labelled mucin precursors is assessed by autoradiography of tissue sections, and preliminary results of experiments designed to test the response of mucus-secreting cells to airway irritation and the parasympathomimetic drug, pilocarpine, are also presented.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248019"}

The process of synthesizing a mucin molecule is discussed, primarily from the standpoint of glycoconjugate biosynthesis. The control of the activation steps in the making of nucleotide sugars is detailed, stressing the molecular mechanisms operating. These include: supply of glycolytic intermediates; the pyridine nucleotide redox potential; the energy state as expressed in nucleotide potential; and feedback modifiers. Next, the glycosyl transferases are discussed, as are suggestions of control at the first committment step and the subjects of specificity of donor and acceptor molecules and the associational state of the glycosyl transferases. The secondpart of the paper describes a model system in vivo. The paired cat submandibular glands are exposed and, in one, blood supply and salivary duct are cannulated and the parasympathetic and sympathetic nerve exposed. This preparation uses the contralateral gland as control and enables certain questions to be asked: 1. Does the cell produce incomplete mucins when the biosynthetic rate is high? 2. Does the energy state of the cell 'keep up with' the high rates of synthesis? 3. What is the extent of post-synthetic modifications? 4.

The students' perceived impact of certain educational factors was explored for possible relationship of these factors to changes that occurred. Values of the graduate nursing faculty and their perception of the importance of the same factors were obtained and compared with those of the students. Students showed signficant increases in values of support, recognition, and independence and significant decreases in benevolence, conformity, and practical mindedness. These changes bore similarity to those reported in previous studies of undergraduate nursing students and medical students. Differences between the students and faculty on two values, practical mindedness and independence, had disappeared by the end of one year; difference on one value, recognition, had appeared; and difference on one value, achievement, remained the same. The influence of specific educational factors was not clear. Faculty judged almost all factors as having a greater impact on students than students judged their impact to have been. Students' preestimate of probable influence of the same factors was significantly higher than their postestimate.

To evaluate the management of five common acute pediatric problems, a \"programmed mother\" made 148 unidentified calls to these health professionals during evening hours. The calls were tape recorded, and scored for history-taking, disposition, and interviewing skills. The scoring system, developed by a panel of 11 experts, assessed the relevance and completeness of each history obtained. Nurse practitioners averaged 79.6 percent of the total possible score, as compared to 52.6 percent for pediatricians  (p less than .001). When disposition was similarly analyzed, the nurse practitioners scored significantly higher than pediatricians. Analyzing only those items of history-taking and disposition deemed most critical by the panel, nurse practitioners included 91 percent and pediatricians only 55 percent (p less than .001). Parameters of interviewing skill were scored by the interviewer and each author with agreement of 80 percent or above; nurse practitioners obtained significantly higher scores than pediatricians (p less than .001).

Data on nurse practitioners in a number of locations in Virginia and in the Philadelphia metropolitan area were collected and analyzed to determine the way in which the nurse practitioners' time was allocated among various duties and to evaluate nurse practitioner performance by physicians and patients. Nurse practitioners performed a wide variety of clinical and nonclinical tasks. Most physicians were satisfied with the practitioner's performance, although there was some inconsistency between physicians and nurse practitioners regarding actual duties performed. A high percentage of physicians stated they would hire a nurse practitioner to replace one who left their employ. Physicians' reasons for hiring a nurse practitioner, as well as their previous contact with such personnel, were examined. Regarding patient attitudes toward nurse practitioners, data indicated that patients were satisfied with nurse practitioners and felt comfortable being treated by them.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248200"}

Nurses, among other professionals, have been tested extensively using the Edwards Personal Preference Schedule. High scoring needs found in previous studies were order, deference, and endurance. In this study, questions focused on whether these needs remained prominent in a group of nurses, whether there were shifts in the need patterns over time, and how the nurses' needs compared with the needs of physicians. In this study 127 graduate nurses enrolled in a medical nurse practitioner program and 31 physician colleagues completed the EPPS. The rank order of needs among nurses was strikingly different from those collected in previous samples. Need for heterosexuality, dominance, intraception, change, and achievement consistently appeared highest since 1973, whereas need for deference, order, and endurance scored consistently among the lowest six needs. The rank-order correlation between nurses and physicians in this sample, all of whom were working in primary care settings, was high (r = .9). Only one of the 15 needs, intraception, differed significantly between the nurse and the physician groups, the nurses scoring higher. The shift in needs of the nurses and the high similarity of needs of the nurse and physician groups suggest an emerging assertiveness on the part of the nurses and a trend toward similarity of need patterns with physicians practicing in primary care.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248201"}

To test the effect of different negative pressures on tracheobronchial trauma in the presence of simulated mucus, measured amounts of simulated mucus were injected into the trachea of two anesthetized mongrel dogs. Suctioning was performed using a different negative pressure for each animal. To identify the effects of negative pressure alone, endotracheal tube size, suction catheter type, suction duration, and suction procedure were identical for both dogs and were selected on the basis of current practices at the hospital with which the investigator was affiliated. Arterial pressure and electrocardiogram were monitored throughout each experiment. The trachea was excised and examined for pathologic changes. Tracheobronchial trauma occurred with suctioning at negative pressures of 100 mm Hg and 200 mm Hg; damage was greater, however, at 200 mg Hg. Results were consistent with postulates made by other investigators in that the extent of tracheobronchial trauma was directly related to the magnitude of negative pressure applied. Comparison of this study with studies which omitted mucus simulation suggests that the amount of damage is not related to the amount of mucus in the trachea. In addition, aspiration efficiency proved to be the same regardless of the negative pressure used. Suctioning at 200 mg Hg recovered approximately the same amount of mucus as suctioning at 100 mm Hg.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248202"}

The similarity of the rates of base modification and of the deacylation of the phenylalanyl-tRNA permitted the isolation of partially modified phenylalanyl-tRNAphe and partially modified deacylated tRNAphe. The sites and extents of base modification in these fractions were determined and found to be the same as those in uncharged tRNAphe modified under identical conditions.

The results suggested that undr these conditions a ternary complex, EF-1 . GTP . aminoacyl-tRNA, is necessary for the formation of a ribosome . EF-1 complex. However, when gel filtration was used to isolate the ribosome . EF-1 complex, only template and tRNA were required. These studie emphasize the fact that the procedure used to isolate the ribosome .

It is not possible to select one competing substrate molecule over another one when the selection system is at equilibrium. Therefore, it is convenient to view all substrate selections as transport phenomena. The requirement for a displacement from equilibrium to effect a substrate selection can be met in different ways. One particularly convenient way is to drive a nonselected substrate, such as GTP in protein synthesis, far from equilibrium. This allows the flux of selected substrate to be relatively slow, but effectively irreversible. Accordingly, the conventional view that GTP hydrolysis drives protein synthesis is amended. It is suggested that the regeneration GTP from GDP is the driving force for protein synthesis. Several different selection mechanisms are described in the context fof systems driven by displacements from equilibrium of the nonselected substrate. These are then evaluated in light of recent experimental results. The data argue against the relevance of proofreading mechanisms for aminoacyl-tRNA selection by the messenger RNA-programmed ribosome. Similarly, recent data suggesting that the translation of messenger RNA is not dependent on the presence of elongation factors and guanine nucleotides are reevaluated.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248284"}

Fifty-two per cent were still in treatment (258 at the clinics, 42 elsewhere), 28 per cent were not in treatment and not known to be using opiates, 11 per cent had died, 6 per cent were in custody and 3 per cent had left the country. Sixty-one per cent of the patients in treatment had remained so continuously. Twenty-eight per cent had also had in-patient hospital treatment. Some patients were very unstable and those treated as in-patients in hospital two or more times for drug abuse had an average of nine hospitalizations. Forty-six per cent of patients in clinic treatment said they were working regularly at the end of the study (23 per cent at entry). Some 7-8 per cent of patients left treatment each year and the death rate remained between 2 and 3 per cent each year.

Electrical recordings made from vascular smooth muscle during the last 15 years make it clear that the role of electrical activity in controlling contraction is often important but varies greatly both between different vessels and for different responses of a given vessel. Only a few mammalian vessels have widely conducted electrical activity, but others can develop this activity, with consequent rhythmical contraction, when made anoxic and stimulated. Action potentials play a part in smooth non-rhythmical responses of arteries to nerves and hormones, while passive conduction of depolarization round the vessel wall is responsible for ring contractions of arteries after local injury. Ca and K cause vasodilatation largely by hyperpolarizing the smooth muscle cells. Electrical activity plays no part in some responses. In particular noradrenaline can contract arteries by directly promoting entry of extracellular Ca, and also by releasing Ca stores by non-electrical means. These processes are particularly important in the inner muscle of arteries, which is not directly innervated.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248321"}

The guidelines for O2 therapy in acute decompensation of COPD and even the indications for short-term use of O2 during periods of increased requirements in stable COPD are fairly clear-cut. With regard to continuous O2 therapy in hypoxemic patients with stable COPD, most would agree that in patients with cor pulmonale treatment with low concentrations of O2 for periods of more than 12 hours per day will result in improved pulmonary hemodynamics, mental function, polycythemia, and perhaps exercise tolerance. In similar patients without cor pulmonale the potential benefit of continuous O2 is unknown. Many other serious questions remain. The optimum duration of chronic O2 therapy must be clarified. More data are needed to determine the effect of continuous O2 therapy on mortality rate at both sea level and high altitude. It is not known whether O2 therapy has any prophylactic value in those patients with COPD who have not developed severe pulmonary hypertension. The potential value of O2 therapy in exercise rehabilitation programs needs further study. Finally, lightweight, longer-lasting, and less-expensive O2 delivery systems must be sought.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248370"}

A theoretical model is described whose particular emphasis is directed towards operationalizing the statements: 'effective teaching bridges the gap between information and practice or 'teaching is more than telling'. It concentrates on nurse behaviours (facilitation) designed to actively engage the patient in learning whereby he accepts his diagnosis or situation, projects the effects of prescribed therapy on his future life, and commits his intentions to practice. It utilizes principles of learning derived from the perceptual (phenomenological) approach and indicates the nurses' responsibilities. The model identifies four critical elements in the engagement process--the patient's values, his perception of the disease threat, his perceived utility of prescription, and facilitating behaviours of the nurse. The strategy is adapted from a combination of the Health Belief Model and the Personal Choice Model.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248380"}

During January, 1976 seven patients in an SICU became colonized or infected with Acinetobacter calcoaceticus (variation, anitratum) at an attack rate of 12.5 per cent. The organism showed a marked reduction in antimicrobial sensitivity from previous experience. Comparison with 34 uninfected control patients indicated that intubation and continuous ventilatory assistance were significantly associated with acquiring the organism (p = 0.0154). Acinetobacter was cultured from nurses' hands, AMBU adaptors, respirator apparatus, respirometers, and unlabeled bottles of saline used for tracheal irrigation. Control measures were designed to interrupt transmission. The investigation identified the nursing techniques and reservoirs that allowed this outbreak to occur, and we emphasize the need for close surveillance of patient care procedures in an intensive care unit.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248372"}

Some of the responses also indicated that learners may be developing attitudes which are contrary to what they are taught in the schools of nursing. Some of the response also indicated that learners may be developing attitudes which are contrary to good nursing practice as a protection from external pressure. The majority of the respondents had opportunities for discussion of their problems, but 28% were unsure about available facilities.

One primary source of feedback on the effectiveness of their teaching, which instructors may easily overlook, comprises of students' reactions. The purpose of this study is to identify students' perceptions of teacher behaviours, which either facilitate or hinder students' learning in the clinical field, and to determine if there is a difference in the perceptions of 1st and 2nd year students. This study is exploratory and descriptive in nature. Firstly, some research studies regarding effective clinical teaching in nursing are reviewed, followed by a discussion of the research design. The tool used for collecting data is a modified form of the critical incident technique. A description of illustrative incidents is requested within five divisions: professional competency, relationship, personal attributes, teaching methods, and evaluation of  practice. A system for analysis and coding of data is then discussed. Finally, the finding of this study is presented. It would seem ot the investigator that students in 1st year are particularly sensitive to how the teacher makes them feel, whereas students in the 2nd year would seem to be more concerned with the teacher's competency in teaching. The teacher behaviours reported as helpful or hindering to students' learning, as identified by the students, are outlined.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248383"}

Blunt abdominal trauma is a possible sequel of many accidents and can result in death from hemorrhage or sepsis if it is not detected early and managed aggressively. A thorough history of the causative accident, a systematic abdominal examination, selected laboratory studies, and x-ray films are helpful in establishing the diagnosis. Peritoneal lavage is, however, the most reliable assessment tool (besides an exploratory laparotomy) for confirming significant viscus injury and intra-abdominal hemorrhage. Nurses who are assisting in the evaluation of trauma victims should be thoroughly familiar with the mechanics responsible for blunt abdominal injury, the initial steps for stabilizing the victim, and the usual tests and procedures that aid in diagnosis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248737"}

The emergency nursing care of patients with major burns presents one of nursing's greatest challenges. Priority is given to lifesaving measures. After a quick overall assessment, a careful estimate of fluid and electrolyte loss is made. An issue in burn care is whether colloids should be given in the immediate postburn period. Large amounts of fluid are always given, and balanced salt solutions are being used increasingly without colloid. The patient's response to fluid therapy can be monitored by central venous pressure readings, vital signs, and hourly measurements of urinary output. Psychologic and physiologic stress intensify the problems and should be kept to a minimum. Only after other aspects of care have been attended is attention directed to care of the burn wound.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248738"}

The use of autotransfusion is indicated for major blood losses of the patient who experiences blunt or penetrating trauma and has an external or a cavitational bleeding source. Advantages and disadvantages are numerous. It does appear that because of the low incidence of complications and the many advantages, autotransfusion will become a widespread resuscitative technique for use with the trauma patient. The procedure also has clinical application for those other than trauma patients. The nursing implications suggested by this new modality are many, including legal considerations, safety factors, protocol adoption, and new nursing roles. Perhaps the most positive benefit to nursing is the opportunity for clinical nursing staff (ER and OR) to become involved in nursing research that they can apply directly to their clinical setting.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/248739"}

Nineteen of 30 isolates were tolerant to oxacillin and cephalothin, but none was tolerant to gentamicin. Among the tolerant isolates, there was a wide spectrum of tolerance, with from 0.2 to 43% of the colony-forming units in the starting inoculum remaining after 18 to 24 h of incubation.

Three-factor genetic crosses performed by transformation have shown that the methicillin resistance determinant of Staphylococcus aureus strain DU4916 (the mec-4916 marker) is linked to a novobiocin resistance (Novr) marker (nov-142) and mutational sites affecting pyrimidine (pyr-141), purine (pur-102), and histidine (hisG15) biosynthesis in S. aureus strain 8325. The linkage group thus defined is pyr-141-hisG15-nov-142-pur-102-mec-4916. Phage 80alpha previously propagated on a novobiocin-resistant, methicillin-sensitive (Mecs) 8325 strain was used to infect 21 novobiocin-sensitive, methicillin-resistant clinical isolates (including strain DU4916). Among the novobiocin-resistant transductants so obtained from each recipient, between 1 and 5% were methicillin sensitive (reflecting cotransduction of Novr and Mecs). These results are consistent with the genetic determinant of methicillin resistance having a single chromosomal locus in most, if not all, strains of S. aureus.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/249312"}

Rabbit reticulocytes contain two RNA isoaccepting species for histidine as resolved by various chromatographic methods, while rabbit liver contains only one. These isoacceptors cannot be distinguished on the basis of coding properties, consistent with the \"Wobble Hypothesis\" (Smith, D.W.E., Meltzer, V.N., and McNamara, A.L. (1974) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 349, 366-375). Their function in hemoglobin synthesis in reticulocyte lysates has been investigated. Each of the tRNA isoacceptors of reticulocytes and the tRNA species of liver can incorporate histidine into positions in hemoglobin encoded by both of the histidine code words, CAC and CAU, and it is likely that each can incorporate histidine into all of the histidine-containing positions of hemoglobin. Even in experiments in which the two histidine tRNA species of reticulocytes are placed together in a lysate and are therefore in competition with each other, each incorporates histidine into all of the histidine-containing positions. There is no evidence that any residues are incorporated preferentially by either of the tRNA species. The two species are attached to reticulocyte ribosomes in the same proportion as they occur in the reticulocyte, also suggesting that neither of them is used preferentially in hemoglobin synthesis. The first of the two reticulocyte histidine isoacceptors and the histidine tRNA of rabbit liver contain Q base.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/249313"}

Purification and properties of a protein factor (Co-EIF-1) which stimulates Met-tRNAf binding to EIF-1. The peptide chain initiation factor, Co-EIF-1 has been purified to homogeneity. Upon sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the homogeneous preparation gives a single protein band corresponding to a molecular weight of approximately 20,000. In the crude preparation, Co-EIF-1 exists in two molecular forms: Co-EIF-1H (Mr = 200,000) and Co-EIF-1L (Mr = 20,000). Both forms are equally active in all the reactions studied. Upon heating, the heavy form (Co-EIF-1H) is completely converted into the light form (Co-EIF-1L). Radioactively labeled [14C]Co-EIF-1 was prepared by reductive alkylation using [14C]formaldehyde and borohydride. [14C]Methyl-Co-EIF-1 binds specifically to EIF-1; EIF-1.[14C]Co-EIF-1 complex was analyzed by gel (Sephadex G-100) filtration. EIF-1.Co-EIF-1 complex is distinctly more stable towards heat than EIF-1 alone and the quarternary complex, Met-tRNAf.EIF-1.Co-EIF-1.GTP is more resistant to aurintricarboxylic acid than the ternary complex, Met-tRNAf.EIF-1.GTP. Both the quarternary complex, Met-tRNAf.EIF-1.Co-EIF-1.GTP, and the ternary complex, Met-tRNAf.EIF-1.GTP, are equally sensitive to Mg2+ in the presence of EIF-2 (TDF). In the presence of Co-EIF-1, the initial rate of Met-tRNAf binding to 40 S ribosomes was significantly increased.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/249314"}

Binding of mRNA by eIF2 produces an alteration in its molecular  configuration resulting in dissociation of component subunits as assayed by isoelectric focusing. In contrast, GTP, GDP, or Met-tRNAi produce no subunit dissociation. Phosphorylation of the 37,000-dalton eIF2 subunit by the heme-controlled translational repressor does not alter the ability of mRNA to produce subunit dissociation of eIF2.

The international literature (circa 1970-1977) on biological and clinical phenomena associated with exposure to microwave or radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic (EM) fields was selectively reviewed. It was concluded that the mechanisms by which EM fields exert their biological effects are becoming better understood as investigative technology and methodology improve. Concurrent with this trend, there is some recent eivdence in the West which supports traditional Soviet and some European claims that EM fields can affect nervous system function and morphology in small mammals, birds and invertebrates at power levels below those defined as thermogenic in the West. These experimental findings coupled with the pressure of public opition may eventually have a significant effect on the establishment of revised occupational exposure limits and on unique positions regarding maximum permissible exposure (MPE). At present, the exposure level established in the Soviet Union is 0.01 m W/cm2 for a work day, while the United States adheres to a level of 10 m W/cm2 averaged over 0.1 h. At the same time, however, findings from clinical studies conducted in the West do not corroborate findings from extensive clinical surveys of occupational workers collected in Russia and in some East European countries. The latter continue to report a plethora of psychophysiological dysfunctions and impairments of a reversible nature as a result of chronic exposure to EM fields of relatively low power density (e.g., less than 10 m W/cm2, and occasionally below the 1 m W/cm2 level). Neither is there any recent compelling evidence to support certain speculations that modulated EM fields can be used to remotely control human behavior. Interaction between the concerned research and development communities in the East and West has increased substantially in the 1970s. Such interaction promises to provide a medium in which differences in doctrine, experimental methodology and protocol, and the interpretation of biological and clinical phenomena may be resolved.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/249341"}

Staphylococcus aureus and epidermidis species from patient cultures and hospital environmental samples were studied for resistance to Penicillin-G and Cloxacillin, a penicillinase resistant penicillin. Only 4--7% of the 232 Staphylococcus aureus strains were sensitive to Penicillin-G; 40--41% were sensitive to Cloxacillin. Patient strains (57) of Staphylococcus epidermidis were sensitive to Penicillin-G in 29% and to Cloxacillin in 53% of the cases. The incidence of sensitivity of the hospital strains (50) of Staphylococcus epidermidis to Penicillin-G was 78% and to Cloxacillin was 93%. In view of their high resistance to Cloxacillin, the strains were evaluated for sensitivity to Gentamicin, an alternate choice for antibiotic therapy. Approximately 90% of the Staphylococcus aureus strains were sensitive to Gentamicin while 99% of the Staphylococcus epidermidis strains were sensitive. This study indicates that differences may exist in regard to antibiotic resistance patterns in various localities and this should be evaluated.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/249404"}

The postmicrosomal supernatant fractions were used for the purification of elongation factor 1 by hydroxyapatite chromatography and phosphocellulose chromarography. The amount of binding factor present was essentially the same for both groups of animals, but the specific activity, as measured by the binding assay, was about twice as high in the DDT-treated preparations. After sucrose-gradient sedimentation, the difference in specific activity was found to reside in the low-molecular-weight (50000) form of elongation factor 1.

The recent development of steroids such as R2323 which are administered once a week potentially improves patient usage since daily motivation is not required.  However, other steroid contraceptives have been associated with alterations in lipid and carbohydrate metabolism.  Thus, the effects of R2323 on lipid and carbohydrate metabolism were monitored over a 6-month period in 21 women.  At the onset of the study, 19 had normal glucose tolerance tests and 2 tested as \"borderline abnormal.\" Among those with normal results, there was no change in either the blood glucose or plasma insulin levels at the 6-month test, except the 3-hour glucose value significantly decreased.  The 2 women with borderline abnormal control tests had normal glucose curves after 6 months of treatment.  In addition, no significant alterations were noted in studies of the fasting cholesterol and triglyceride levels in normal women.  It is important that new steroids continue to be investigated since, if a structural change can be related to a metabolic change, new, safe steroids can be developed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/249676"}

Immediate reduction of phosphorus loadings to the Great Lakes is essential to slow accelerated eutrophication. The Great Lakes National Program Office of the US Environmental Protection Agency now advocates adoption of bans on detergent phosphates as the most practical and feasible means of immediately reducing the phosphorus loadings to the Great Lakes. This change in policy from previous reliance on removal by sewage treatment has been adopted for the following reasons: (1) Bans on phosphates will reduce capital and operating costs of treatment and, were adopted, have met with consumer acceptance. (2) In practice, treatment plants have not met design expectations for phosphate removal. (3) Neither nitrilotriacetic acid nor other substitutes for phosphates have proved to be a public health problem. (4) Reduction of phosphorus loadings to treatment plants avoids increasing levels of chlorides and total dissolved solids in effluents. (5) Water quality has improved in small lakes with phosphorus reduction. In summary, detergent phosphate bans alone will not reduce phosphorus loadings to the Great Lakes sufficiently for the long term but the Environmental Protection Agency has concluded that such action is necessary in addition to continued efforts to control non-point sources.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/249680"}
{"pmid": "249678", "title": "Balance sheet for phosphorus in the UK.", "content": "Balance sheet for phosphorus in the UK. A balance sheet for the inputs, uses and outputs of phosphorus in the UK economy has been drawn up. The major import is fertilizer, amounting to about 200 kt P per year. After fertilizers, the other imports (in kt P) are in animal feeds (63), detergents (38) and human food (14). The major outputs are sewage (50), animal excreta (26) and refuse (21); soil losses are about 20 kt. The flowpaths for phosphorus through humans, animals and plants are described. The discrepancy of about 210 kt P/yr is explained by the fact that the amount of phosphorus in the soil increases each year by almost as much as the amount of fertilizer phosphorus added. In view of UK dependence on this imported resource it is suggested that priority is given to work which might eventually have some practical application in preventing or reversing the immobilization of phosphorus in the soil.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/249678"}

{"pmid": "249679", "title": "The use of phosphate in detergents and possible replacements for phosphate.", "content": "The use of phosphate in detergents and possible replacements for phosphate. About 5% of the total phosphate mined worldwide is used in detergents. The chemical form in which phosphate is used in detergents is predominantly pentasodium triphosphate (PSTP). The most significant feature for the use of PSTP in detergents is its ability to form soluble and strong complexes with calcium and magnesium ions. This provides a strong synergism with regard to detergency when PSTP is used in combination with synthetic surfactants. Other important features of PSTP are its ability to disperse dirt in the washing solution, its weak alkalinity, its crystalline form when dry (which enables production of crisp powders) and, last but not least, its toxicological acceptability. The development of PSTP for use in detergents has a history of over 25 years. In certain areas of highly developed countries where effluents from major centres of population can reach stagnant surface waters a rapid increase of eutrophication of these surface waters is observed. Phosphates are being recognized as one of the essential nutrients contributing to the eutrophication and detergents are one of the many sources of phosphate discharged to the environment. This is now causing demands for reduction in or even banning of the use of phosphates in detergents. Major reserach projects and some practical approaches to meeting these demands are described. The potential environmental impact of removing phosphate from detergents remains, however, doubtful, as it has been demonstrated in Sweden that phosphate removal by sewage treatment is the most effective measure to control phosphate discharges. This makes the case of phosphates in detergents an example of how science and technology can become entangled with politics.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/249679"}

Head nurses and faculty members have their own beliefs on and attitudes towards the process of selecting candidates to schools of nursing. Many times these are based on impressions and/or everyday experiences that might have a crucial influence on perception of the issue. These impressions are not always verified when a study is conducted. This article reports on some of the issues and findings regarding attrition in one school for registered nurses in Israel during the years 1968-1974. It also describes what head nurses and faculty members thought to be valid criteria in the selection process, though findings revealed that things are not always as they are believed to be. For example, psychological tester recommendations were thought to be crucial in selecting candidates and preventing attrition, but no significant correlation was found between the recommendations and attrition. Head nurses thought that the main reason for attrition was dissatisfaction, although this was not found to be a stated reason. This belief of the head nurses should evidently be investigated. Findings support the author's belief that local studies are important and that faculty members and head nurses should communicate on the issue of student nurse selection and education.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/249736"}

A follow-up study of 17 nurse-midwives, working in various Caribbean countries and previously trained in programs sponsored by the Medical Department of the Western Hemisphere Regional Office of IPPF, indicated that while the nurse-midwives viewed their training as beneficial, the skills and knowledge they acquired were not fully recognized nor utilized by the health systems in which they worked.  Data was obtained by administering questionnaires to all 17 nurse-midwives and by conducting personal interviews with 10 of the respondents.  Additional information was obtained by discussing the role of midwives with a number of physicians and other health personnel involved in family planning programs in Caribbean countries.  Of the 17 respondents, 7 worked in government facilities, 7 in Family PLanning Association programs, and 3 no longer worked in family planning related jobs.  All the respondents felt their training had increased their level of self-confidence.  41% said their role had changed as a result of training and 58% said that it had not changed.  Training did not significantly improve the status and pay for most of the nurse-midwives; only 5 received new titles and only 7 received salary increases after training.  Although 15 of the respondents said that they utilized most of the skills they acquired in training, in some of the countries there were legal barriers which prevented full utilization of their skills and in other countries doctors were frequently unwilling to allow them to perform many of the functions for which they were trained.  These findings lead to the suggestion that efforts should be made to promote additudual changes within the medical community toward nurse-midwives by 1) furnishing physicians with literature on programs which effectively utilize midwives and 2) encouraging representatives of international groups to discuss the feasibility of expanding the role of nurse-midwives with Caribbean medical personnel.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/249779"}

In a study of personality needs conducive to desired role change for nurse practitioners, 125 nursing students in a four-month pediatric nurse practitioner training program at Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts, were given the Edwards Personal Preference Schedule before and after the course. Students in the program were found to have needs associated with the assertiveness and flexibility required by the new role. Before and after training they were low in need for order, endurance, abasement, and deference and high in need for autonomy and aggression. During training, the need for order, endurance, and abasement decreased further. Inconsistent with this interpretation was the finding that students were actually lower in dominance and higher in succorance after training. The decrease in dominance may be related to the program's special emphasis on counseling; the high succorance at the end of the program may have resulted from the transitional state associated with leaving the program.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/249946"}

The extent of physical disability was found to be related to the quality of life inasmuch as women with a high number of physical symptoms were much more likely to have a higher number of symptoms of depression than women with fewer complications. Social supports mediated the effects of surgical complications on mental outlook, but only up to a point.

Extensive videotaped time-series data of patient-health care personnel interactions, involving four patients admitted for elective surgery, were collected approximately 16 hours a day from admission to discharge and computerized in both mnemonic word form and numeric files. These interactional data were instrumental in the methodologic development. Communicative interaction is conceptualized as a dynamic, ongoing behavior process which can be studied by identifying the observed effects of presenting behaviors on the participants. The process is complex, contex-related, and multivariate in nature. Synchronology provides a structure for in-context description and analysis of the complex verbal and nonverbal interaction patterns, preservation of multivariate data, and identification of key concepts in human interaction which are of use in education, practice, and research.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/249950"}

Nursing faculty registered at a higher rate than the other three faculty groups; nursing faculty voted more than music and education faculty and less or at the same rate as medical school faculty. The male medical faculty registered less frequently than the female faculty, but generally voted in larger percentages. The medical faculty were found to be more consistent voters.

Right heart catheterization, first reported in 1905, is now used for bedside assessment and management of the critically ill patient. A Swan-Ganz catheter and pulmonary artery pressure monitoring are the tools employed. In spite of the complications cited, the occurrence of hazard to the patient is infrequent. The catheter is particularly valuable in the hemodynamic evaluation of cardiac function. Right and left heart pump performance can be assessed by pressure measurements. The ability of the left heart to provide an adequate cardiac output can be numerically calculated, and its adequacy at a cellular level can be evaluated by determining arterial-venous oxygen saturation difference. One of the more important and newest uses of the Swan-Ganz catheter is the preventive function it plays in anesthesia administration. Implications of the Swan-Ganz catheter for nursing practice are: (1) explanation and support to patient and family; (2) technical understanding and knowledge of set-up; (3) care and maintenance of the catheter after insertion; (4) the understanding of physiologic principles underlying the use of the catheter; and, most important, (5) ability to correlate clinical observations and physiologic changes occurring in the patient with pressure measurements.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/250012"}

Any obvious open chest wound should be sealed, and any fractures should be splinted. These patients should be rapidly transported to the nearest Emergency Department capable of handling this type of injury. The majority of patients who arrive in the Emergency Department following blunt or penetrating trauma should be considered to be in critical condition until proven otherwise.

A detailed description is given of a method to section the pituitary stalk of the fetal lamb after 105 days gestational age. The approach to the stalk is made through a window in the frontal bone. In order to prevent regeneration of the hypothalamo-pituitary connections a silicone plate is introduced through the probe used to fracture the stalk. The surgical outcome and viability of 11 pituitary stalk sectioned fetuses is described over periods of up to 23 days. The presence of pituitary infarction following stalk section was related to damage of the anterior hypophysial vesssels if the probe was deviated from the mid-line at any time in its course. The effect of this procedure on fetal plasma T4 and PRL concentrations and the initiation of premature labour by the continuous infusion of cortisol into the fetus is described.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/250110"}
{"pmid": "250111", "title": "Mechanism of hypothalamic control of cardiac component of sinus nerve reflex.", "content": "Mechanism of hypothalamic control of cardiac component of sinus nerve reflex. The modulatory influence of hypothalamic structures on sinus nerve induced bradycardia was investigated in anaesthetized cats. Stimulation of the hypothalamic defence area inhibits the bradycardia produced by sinus nerve stimulation both in intact animals and also in animals with the spinal cord sectioned at C1 or C6. This inhibition was accompanied in the normal animal by an increased sympathetic discharge and by a sustained inspiration or tachypnoea. The same respiratory effects were noted in a spontaneously breathing C6 spinal animal, while an artificially ventilated C1 spinal animal still displayed a powerful central inspiratory drive in its recurrent laryngeal electroneurogram. The presence of central inspiratory activity was found to be an absolute impediment to the development of bradycardia. If this activity was eliminated by simultaneous stimulation of the superior laryngeal nerve, it was possible to obtain bradycardia during combined sinus nerve and hypothalamic defence area stimulation, though this bradycardia was modified by the presence of sympathetic discharge. The level of sympathetic neural discharge affects the magnitude of the bradycardia produced by sinus nerve stimulation. The bradycardia was less with normal or augmented level of sympathetic activity and was greater if this activity was reduced or absent. A lesion just caudal to the mammillary bodies disclosed a tonic hypothalamic influence both on respiration and on sympathetic discharge; stimulation of the sinus nerve produced a much more powerful bradycardia after the lesion. The existence of a respiratory \"gate\" through which afferent stimuli pass on their way to the nucleus ambiguus, and which can be operated by the hypothalamic defence and depressor areas, is postulated and discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/250111"}

Intra-luminal pressures were measured in in vitro preparations of the guinea-pig gall bladder. Intrinsic tone and spontaneous activity were recorded together with the response of the gall-bladder to Pancreozymin. The effect of the presence of a variety of conjugated and unconjugated bile salts in the luminal fluid [pH 7.4] was studied. Sodium deoxycholate and sodium chenodeoxycholate had in inhibitory effect on motor activity at concentrations as low as 6.0 times 10(-6) mol. 1(-1) Sodium taurocholate at a concentration of 3 times 10(-3) mol. 1(-1) promoted regular spontaneous activity. The results are discussed in relation to their possible physiological, pathological and pharmacological implications.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/250112"}

Cardiac performance in moderate bicycle exercise has been measured in five groups of New Guineans (N = 161). Men and women in both coastal and highland (2000 m) locations were studied, as well as a group of highland men after migration to the coast. The results have all been standardized to an oxygen consumption of 1 1.min(-1). Cardiac output values are similar to those previously quoted for Europeans; a significant positive correlation with body size is found, and resident highlanders appear to have slightly larger cardiac outputs (+4%) and larger stroke volumes (+10%) after adjustment for body size, but this is not because they have larger hearts. The highland migrants at sea-level share none of the 'altitude' characteristics of the highland residents and, after size-adjustment, correspond with the lowlanders. The cardiac frequencies of the lowland women are higher than the other groups (+15 beats.min(-1)) after adjustment for differences in body size. Their values are close to those found previously for moderately active Europeans, while all the other New Guinean subjects have lower cardiac frequencies probably because of their greater habitual activity.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/250113"}

Contemporary medical care is a valuable but incomplete approach to health. The individual is coming to be recognized by many providers and consumers of health care alike as the primary health care resource, and individual behaviors and lifestyles are now recognized as the principle determinants of health. A new trend toward health activation is emerging which emphasizes self-care and self-help. This movement is transforming the traditionally passive patient into an active, informed and effective participant in health care and health promotion. The recent interest in programs designed to enhance self-care skills is extremely relevant to health education in the schools and the community. The prime justification of health education has traditionally been one of promoting individual responsibility for generating and maintaining health.

Behavioral variables compared included dental visits, routine oral hygiene, and the use of fluoride paste and rinse at the sessions. Dental exams both a priori and a posteriori allowed an assessment of the dentition and gingival tissue of both groups.

The efficacy of nafcillin and gentamicin used alone and in combination at doses giving serum concentrations comparable to those achieved in patients was studied in rabbits with experimental Staphylococcus aureus endocarditis. The organism used was a penicillinase-producing, methicillin-susceptible, clinical isolate. The addition of gentamicin to nafcillin significantly increased the rate of killing of organisms in valvular vegetations, compared to the effect of nafcillin alone. Gentamicin alone delayed mortality but was not effective in reducing the bacterial populations of the vegetations. Bacteremia persisted in the animals treated with gentamicin alone, in contrast to the groups treated with nafcillin or the combination. Selection of a subpopulation of aminoglycoside-resistant small-colony variants occurred in animals treated with gentamicin alone. This variant was subsequently employed in the rabbit model and produced endocarditis, metastatic infection, and bacteremia comparable to those caused by the parent strain. Animals with infection produced by the variant died later than animals infected by the parent strain. Nafcillin was equally effective in reducing the population of both parent and variant strains in vitro and in therapy of the infected animals. Population studies showed the variant to be a mutant emerging at a rate of 1.9 x 10(-7). It was shown to differ from the parent strain in coagulase and hemolysin production, colonial morphology, and aminoglycoside susceptibility, but was similar by light and electron microscopy and in phage type, pigmentation of colonies, deoxyribonuclease production, mannitol fermentation, and growth rate.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/251069"}

Today's teen-agers do need access to contraceptive information.  8 years ago in Canada, there were 14,801 illegitimate births among mothers between the ages of 15 and 19.  Changes in Canadian abortion laws have resulted in a decrease in the number of illegitimate births since then, but the need for contraception continues as indicated by the 12,481 therapeutic abortions performed on adolescents in this age group in 1974.  Teen-age male as well as female adolescents need counseling in the area of sexual conduct regarding the prevention of pregnancy and venereal disease.  Despite school-sponsored classes in sexual development, teen-agers continue to have misconceptions concerning pregnancy and birth control.  Effective teaching and counseling as preventive measures are critical, and the nurse has a key role for often she provides the counseling.  Sensitive listening and open communication are important elements in dealing with young people.  It is important for nurses to be aware of their own personal attitudes and biases regarding human sexual conduct, and these personal views should not be imposed on patients.  A sensitive, open, and non-judgmental approach is necessary with adolescents.  The minor's capacity to give consent to treatment is of major relevance, for without consent a physician or nurse may incur liability.  While some provinces allow teen-agers under the age of majority to give a valid consent to treatment, most provinces restrict capacity to give such consent to those who have attained the age of majority.  Physicians and nurses frequently do deal directly with minors without parental consent, yet the number of reported legal cases in Canada remains miniscule, possibly because parents eventually recognize the need for contraception in their sexually active teen-agers.  Once parental involvement is refused by the teen-agers, the teen-agers should become the primary patient and confidentiality should be respected.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/251108"}

The low-molecular-weight form of elongation factor 1 (EF-1L) of the cysts of the brine shrimp Artemia salina and [3H]phenylalanyl-tRNA are able to form a stable complex which can be isolated on a Sephacryl S200 column. The formation of this complex is inhibited by increasing concentrations of magnesium acetate and KCl. Furthermore, the formation of this complex is independent of the presence of guanine nucleotides. Complex formation between EF-1L and phenylalanyl-tRNA appears to be specific, since acylation of the tRNA is a necessity for this interaction. Although EF-1L alone binds GDP somewhat more strongly than GTP, the complex between EF-1L and phenylalanyl-tRNA binds GTP exclusively. Our results support the idea that complex formation between EF-1L and aminoacyl-tRNA precedes the enzymatic binding of aminoacyl-tRNA to the 80-S ribosome. Subsequently to this binding, release of EF-1L from the ribosome occurs.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/251131"}

The precise cardiac rhythm diagnosis is extremely important for proper management. When the QRS morphology is bizarre and the ventricular rate is very fast (200 to 300 b.p.m.) in atrial fibrillation, the WPW syndrome should be considered as the underlying disorder. Digitalis should be avoided in this circumstance because anomalous conduction may be accelerated by the drug, leading to deterioration of the clinical picture and even death. When an antiarrhythmic drug is to be used, intravenous lidocaine is the drug of choice. For the prophylactic measure, oral quinidine or procainamide is equally effective for atrial fibrillation with anomalous conduction in the WPW syndrome.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/251167"}

The postinfarction group significantly decreased their frequency of coitus after infarction by 28%; the revascularization group, however, decreased activity by only 10%. The myocardial infarction group waited 9.4 weeks after infarction to resume sexual intercourse, while the revascularization group waited a mean of only 5.7 weeks. These data suggest that physically trained post-myocardial infarction patients decrease frequency of coitus significantly more than physically trained patients with myocardial revascularization. The overall decrease, however, is notably less than that reported in nontrained post-myocardial infarction patients and suggests a \"bedroom benefit\" of medically supervised exercise in selected patients after infarction or revascularization.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/251169"}

Human subjects' clearance was obtained for the study in each participating hospital. Data were collected primarily by means of patient and nurse responses to self-administered questionnaires. In the initial phase of data analysis, zero-order correlations were obtained for each pair of nursing activity and patient outcome variables. In addition, to identify relative contributions of different nursing activities to the health status of patients, regression analyses were performed in selected situations. The content and the quality of the explanation of the treatment and care regime were observed to be correlated positively with the patient's self-esteem.

This study investigated rate of contamination in simulated in-use intravenous solutions to obtain data from which to recommend a standard time period for the administration of intravenous solutions. Although the Center for Disease Control and many medical institutions have recommended that all bottles of in-use intravenous solutions be changed every 24 hours, there are no published data to support the 24-hour standard. In this study, samples were drawn from 80 bottles of Ringer's Lactate solution at predetermined time intervals over 48 hours and cultured on blood agar plates to determine rate of contamination. A low incidence of intravenous solution contamination was found at all time periods. Of 430 total samples, only 12 (2.8%) were contaminated. Results of this study did not indicate a significant relationship between time and contamination of simulated in-use intravenous solutions. Therefore, contamination that does occur within 48 hours in intravenous solutions must be introduced from some exogenous source. Further research is required to elucidate exogenous sources of contamination. In the meantime, it can be concluded, the 24-hour standard is adequate to protect against contamination that would occur solely from preparation of the intravenous solution for administration.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/251249"}

A tool, Patient Indicators of Nursing Care, was designed to measure quality of nursing care, defined in this study as prevention of nursing care complications. Nursing-accountable complications are seen as the presence of negative patient care outcomes as evidenced by observable physiologic indicators. A negative outcome results when either an observed indicator which was present at admission remains evident up to seven days postadmission or an absent indicator becomes evident during this time period. PINC is a 24-item list. Th list is first administered up to 48 hours postadmission; the second administration takes place between five and seven days postadmission. Scoring of PINC is based on the idea that four important presence-absence conditions exist and that each represents a value of quality of nursing care. Split-half reliability was computed for PINC, based on a sample of 124 patients from four hospital settings. The Spearman-Brown reliability coefficient was .871. An item analysis was accomplished by computing the correlation of each item with the total score. The computed correlation of .797 was a measure of interrater agreement. Face validity was established early in the test development by having the investigators judge the items in terms of observability, availability, and credibility. Predictive validity was not explicity examined although a major difference in PINC scores was found between critical care patients and other groups.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/251248"}

This article describes the development--including content, structure, validity, and reliability--of the Six-dimension Scale of Nursing Performance (Six-D Scale), which consists of a series of 52 nurse behaviors grouped into six performance subscales: leadership (5 items), critical care (7 items), teaching/collaboration (11 items), planning/evaluation (7 items), interpersonal relations/communications (12 items), and professional development (10 items). The scale may be used to obtain self-appraisals of performance, employer appraisals of performance, or perceived adequacy of nursing school preparation for performance. The case is made for the construct and pragmatic validity of the Six-D Scale, and all six subscales are shown to be highly reliable. The instrument was found to be suitable for performance evaluation as well as a useful research tool.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/251246"}

In a prospective study undertaken at Port-Royal Maternity Hospital, Paris, 1785 deliveries were studied during a 15-month period. Signs of cerebral dysfunction were observed in 57 newborn infants--mild signs in 38 infants, moderate in 17, severe in 2. There was a high incidence of abnormal labour in 28 of these 57 infants (50%) (dysfunctional labour patterns without obvious cephalopelvic disproportion, including false labour, prolonged active-phase dilatation, (prolonged descent, marked caput succedaneum). During the first year of life, 30 of the 57 infants were followed. In 14 of the 30 infants transitory abnormalities were observed. In five infants abnormalities persisted at the end of the first year. Eleven infants were normal throughout the first year. In another study the incidence of cerebral symptoms at birth was compared in full-term infants born in 1974 and those born in 1976. Thirteen infants with moderate and severe symptoms were observed out of 1578 deliveries during 1974 and five out of 1934 deliveries during 1976, the incidence of Caesarean section necessitated by acute fetal distress being the same in both groups. This decreasing percentage of complications appears to be linked with improving care, including more widespread use of fetal monitoring.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/251500"}

The hypothesis that the incidence of major childhood handicap could be significantly reduced by an increase in the availability of intensive care facilities for newborn babies has been considered in an examination of possible aetiological factors in 128 young children with mental and/or neurological handicaps referred to the Armitstead Child Development Centre, Dundee, 1973-77. Thirty-three children suffered from primary mental retardation; adverse perinatal factors were possibly implicated in one case. Low birth weight was considered to be the primary aetiological factor in 23 of 73 children with cerebral palsy +/- mental retardation and in 13 with other adverse perinatal factors. Moderate or severe neonatal complications were reported for 37% but in 27% complications were likely to have resulted from existing brain damage or abnormality. Available evidence suggested that early embryonic origin of handicap was most likely in three-quarters of cases of primary mental retardation, and in one-third of cases of cerebral palsy. Severity of handicap in children with cerebral palsy was significantly increased in those whose handicaps had a prenatal origin. Of this selected group of handicapped children (cerebral palsy being over-represented), adverse perinatal factors may have caused or exacerbated existing brain damage in, at most, one-third.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/251501"}

The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the continuum of perinatal risks responsible for developmental handicaps in infancy. The first step is the Assessment of risks during pregnancy so that intervention can occur naturally in the process of preventive health care. A valid risk-assessment system has been developed which can facilitate identification of the high-risk pregnancy. New methods of perinatal care during the Birth process are now available which allow active intervention aimed at reducing the likelihood of a high-risk patient delivering an infant destined to become handicapped. During the neonatal period Critical care has been shown to reduce morbidity and mortality. However, the perinatal profile of the handicap is not yet complete enough to fully explain developmental delay. A new health care strategy based on prospective risk assessment and early intervention must now be seriously considered which will allow technological medicine to continue to improve well-being.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/251502"}

During the past 20 years there has been a great increase in the understanding of deranged physiological mechanisms in certain groups of newborn infants that were, in the past, at high risk for death or major handicap. Much information of direct clinical relevance has come from the study of experimental animals, particularly about the changes that occur in the lungs and circulation at birth. Work in progress on an animal model of intraventricular haemorrhage suggests that this, like many other causes of brain damage, is a potentially preventable condition. Technological advances, such as continuous blood-gas analysis, make the prevention of handicapping conditions simpler, but the application of modern methods can be expensive. Current evidence shows that neonatal intensive care saves lives, and that the incidence of major handicap in the survivors is reduced. Society will have to decide how much money should be put into this area of medicine, and it will also have to help neonatal paediatricians with the difficult ethical dilemmas that they are now having to face.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/251503"}

Reports indicate that this method has a pregnancy rate of 1.3/100 women months.  Women desiring to use this method are advised to keep a record of each cycle till they learn to identify on a given day whether they are fertile or not.

Significant differences were noted between the two groups in five of 18 neonate behaviors observed in the delivery room. Among control subjects there was significantly more time spent with hand muscles tense during the first ten minutes after birth; more trembling, shuddering, and blinking during the first 15 minutes after deliver; and more trembling and shuddering overall.

High risk patients (more than 3 prognostically unfavourable characteristics) increased from 3.5% 1966-1970 to 15.6% 1971-1976, and the total mortality from 3.6 to 10.4%. The most unfavourable prognostic factor was low blood pressure at admission. High risk patients were more common among those who had meningococci with complete or partial sulfonamide resistance (25.7%) than among those having sensitive meningococci (11.9%). When the meningococci were at least partially sulfonamide-resistant, initial therapy with the combination of benzylpenicillin, sulfaisodimidine and chloramphenicol seemed to be more successful than benzylpenicillin alone in patients above 10 years. Ampicillin was used only in children, and these all survived.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252144"}

In this paper we report single cell experiments which explored how sensory inputs are used by the hippocampus to calculate spatial information and behavioural experiments which tested the sensory capabilities of fornix-lesioned rats. Both sets of experiments were done in cue-controlled enclosures which contained only a few distant cues by which the rat could locate itself and the goal. Other cues were eliminated by rotating the constellation of cues and the goal from trial to trial. The results of the single cell experiment show that the place fields of hippocampal cells recorded in this environment are related to the controlled cues and, further, that some of these place cells maintain their fields after the removal of any two of four controlled cues. The lesion studies show that rats with damaged fornices can learn to approach distant cues behind and below the level of the goal but not ones behind and above the goal. A second study showed that the addition of redundant distant cues to the enclosure impairs the learning ability of the lesioned, but not the normal, animals.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252440"}

Rhythmical slow activity (RSA) occurs in the hippocampus under many conditions including waking behaviour, active sleep and surgical anaesthesia. Under all these conditions RSA, apparently, is produced by the coupled operation of CA1 and dentate gyrus generators. Two ascending brainstem systems appear capable of initiating activity in these coupled generators. One system, ascending via the diagonal band and medial septal nucleus, may contain cholinergic synapses since it is blocked by atropine and stimulated by eserine. The RSA produced by this system usually has a frequency of 4--7 Hz and can occur during total immobility during the waking state, active sleep or anaesthesia. A second ascending system produces RSA of higher frequency (usually 7--12 Hz) and is active during waking if, and only if, movements such as walking occur. During active sleep this system is active only during phasic muscular twitches. Anaesthetics (ether, urethane) and morphine abolish activity in this second system but it is resistant to atropinic and nicotinic drugs. Amphetamine stimulates, and major tranquillizers depress the atropine-resistant system but these drugs do not abolish its normal relation to behaviour. Neocortical activity appears to be controlled by two ascending systems which parallel closely those ascending to the hippocampus.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252441"}

I present evidence from several different lines of investigation (including partial lesions, intraseptal and intrahippocampal drug injections, and surgical transections of the major fibre systems that enter, leave, or traverse the area) which indicates that individual components of the septal syndrome in the rat and cat reflect an interruption of different neural elements. The 'disinhibitory' effects of septal lesions on behaviour that is suppressed as a consequence of non-reward are due to an interruption of septo-hippocampal (or hippocampo-septal) connections that do not have a cholinergic synapse in the septum but do have one in the hippocampus. The inhibitory effects of punishment are not mediated by the same pathways but involve amygdalo-septal (no directionality intended) projections that have a cholinergic synapse in the septal area. This component of the septum may communicate with the hippocampus via entorhinal and periamygdaloid projections. This pathway does not appear to have a cholinergic synapse in the hippocampus. The effects of septal lesions on active avoidance are related to an interruption of at least two pathways. The facilitated shuttle box conditioned avoidance response acquisition is related mainly to an interruption of ventral connections of the septum with the lower brainstem. The impaired acquisition of most other avoidance problems seems to be due to an interruption of components of the stria medullaris. Both pathways have a cholinergic synapse in the septal area. The hyperdipsia, finickiness, and sudden weight loss are related to an interruption of pathways that interconnect the septum with the lower brainstem.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252442"}

Since the time of Elliot Smith (1910) it has been recognized that the septal complex occupies a pivotal position within the mammalian telencephalon, being strategically placed between the hippocampal formation on the one hand and the basal forebrain and diencephalon on the other. However, it is only in the last few years that the detailed interrelationships between the different nuclear groups within the septum and the various subfields of the hippocampus have been studied. We have recently re-examined the connections of both the septum and the hippocampal formation using the techniques based on the anterograde transport of isotopically labelled proteins and the retrograde transport of the enzyme marker, horseradish peroxidase. Our findings may be summarized as follows. Field CA1 of Ammon's horn and the adjoining subiculum project through the fimbria and pre-commissural fornix upon the lateral septal nucleus of the same side in a topographically ordered manner. Field CA3, on the other hand, projects bilaterally upon the lateral septum. The lateral septal nucleus in turn, projects partly upon the medial septal nucleus and nucleus of the diagonal band, and partly to the lateral hypothalamus and the mamillary complex. The medial septal-diagonal band complex projects back, through the fimbria and dorsal fornix, to fields CA3 and CA4 of the hippocampus, to the dentate gyrus, to the subicular complex, and to the entorhinal area. The subicular complex projects through the post-commissural fornix to the anterior thalamic group, the mamillary complex, and the ventromedial and arcuate nuclei of the hypothalamus. Ammon's horn and the subiculum also project to the posterior septal nuclei (triangular and septofimbrial), which in turn send their output to the habenular and interpeduncular nuclei. The significance of these projections is analysed in a review of the major known afferent and efferent connections of the septum and hippocampus, and the cell groups to which they project directly.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252443"}

Destruction of septo-hippocampal connections produces a severe and enduring deficit in the ability to perform a spatial memory task. Furthermore, crossed unilateral lesions of the entorhinal area and fimbria-fornix produce the same deficit as bilateral lesions in either the entorhinal area or the fimbria-fornix, as predicted from a disconnection analysis of hippocampal lesions. Evidence also suggests that septo-hippocampal damage produces a greater deficit in spatial behaviours when a flexible response is required than when a consistent response is required, although this difference is a relative one rather than an absolute one. Finally, disruptive stimulation of the hippocampus while rats are performing a spatial memory task produces retrograde amnesia but not proactive interference.

The rats were tested in a standard test battery consisting of a residential maze, spontaneous alternation, spatial learning, approach/avoidance conflict and one-way active avoidance. Factor analyses reveal a complex change in the factor structure after septal lesions. None of the previous explanations of septal functions receives unequivocal support. The findings do not exclude the possibility that septal lesions interfere with a few general behaviour mechanisms or perhaps only one. However, if so, this factor does not explain as much of the variance as expected. Situational or test-dependent factors play a greater role in the variance.

Bilateral damage to the medial temporal lobe, including the hippocampus, in man is associated with a severe amnesic syndrome. It is still not clear whether the hippocampus (or its output pathways and related target projection sites) is the critical structure in producing this syndrome, especially as more severe learning deficits in animals are found with lesions in the anterior inferotemporal cortex than with hippocampal lesions per se. But the problem of trying to relate memory deficits in man and animals depends on the characterization of the amnesic syndrome itself. It was originally thought to be a failure of input into long-term memory store or a failure of consolidation. Medial temporal and hippocampal lesions in animals do not produce results that fit such a characterization. On re-examination of the human syndrome, however, for which some of the evidence is reviewed, it appears that the amnesic patients can learn and remember over long intervals if certain testing paradigms are used. The results are more readily matched to some of the results of hippocampal lesion studies in animals. Two main classes of current theories of the amnesic syndrome are discussed. A somewhat different approach is suggested here, based on the dissociation between human amnesic subjects' commentaries and their objective performance, which suggests a dissociation between levels of processing rather than a failure on any particular level.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252447"}

Small but specific protein perturbations have been studied with various nuclear magnetic resonance procedures with haemoglobin as a model protein to establish the 'ground-rules' for anaesthetic-macromolecule interactions. The correlation of one aspect of these perturbations with anaesthetic potency and hydrophobic solubility indicates that hydrophobic pockets in proteins can behave like bulk-lipid phases in terms of their solubility characteristics. Other aspects appear to depend on physical characteristics such as size, geometry, structure and composition of the individual agents. These data support the hypothesis that anaesthetic actions can be explained on a molecular basis by direct interactions with proteins in addition to lipid and aqueous effects.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252450"}

Enzyme function is critically affected by gross changes in tertiary structure, but much less is known about the dependence of activity on localized conformational changes that might occur during the catalytic process. Such information is essential to the understanding and verification of enzyme mechanisms, and can only be obtained from systems in which the substrate binding and catalytic groups of the enzyme active centre are not only identified but also rendered appropriate probes of the catalytic reaction, that is they must signal changes in their mutual interactions at rates at least as fast as catalysis. It should then be possible to observe directly each of the dynamic events that result in catalysis. Time-averaged structural analyses can neither reveal the dynamics of catalysis nor describe the conformational details of molecules who structures-particularly of the active centre-are motile. Moreover, the three-dimensional structures of enzymes in crystals and solutions may not always be identical as evidenced by marked differences between the kinetic properties of crystalline and of dissolved enzymes (e.g. hexokinase, glycogen phosphorylase and carboxypeptidases A and B). Various experimental approaches have been devised to explore the relationship between structure and function of these and other enzymes. We have focused on the syncatalytic, spatial relationships of active-site residues as they bear on the mechanism of enzyme action using absorption, circular dichroism, magnetocircular dichroic, and resonance Raman spectroscopy as well as resonance energy transfer. Stopped-flow, pH and temperature jump methods quantitatively assess both the conformational and local structural features of the enzyme and reveal multiple, discrete conformational states that prove to have mechanistic significance.

One of these is designed to stabilize the trigonal bipyramidal transition state for an in-line displacement at the phosphorus of a phosphate monoester. This cyclodextrin contains three symmetrically disposed ammonium groups on the 'top' (at C-6) of the hydrophobic cavity formed by the hexa-glucose torus and the remaining 15 hydroxy groups are methylated.

Mean packing densities in protein interiors are comparable to those of most organic solids but the variations between small regions may be substantial. Packing defects may be related to allowed structural fluctuations. Molecular surface areas can be correlated with free energies of transfer between different solvents. The proportionality factor will depend, in general, on the nature of the solute and both the solvents. The changes in solvent-protein interfacial area on chain folding are large and the implied changes in free energy from this solvent-squeezing effect are correspondingly large. The strong tendency to minimize surface area is reflected in the globular shape of most protein molecules or domains in larger structures. The formation of isolated units of secondary structure from an extended chain represents about one half of the eventual total area change. The tendencies of amino acids to form beta-sheets correlate well with the rank-ordered list based on non-polar area change for each residue type. The calculated area changes for helix and sheet formation are not identical in rank order. The rank-ordered list for alpha-helix formation correlates satisfactorily with the probability list prepared from actual structures if glutamic acid and tyrosine are removed. What special characteristics unrelated to surface area these two amino acids might have is not clear. Tertiary structure formation from preformed secondary structural units can be rank ordered on area change and possible nucleation sites can be identified. A prediction scheme for helix-helix interactions is proposed. The hydrophobic force begins to be felt when two helices are about 0.6 nm (6 A) from their final contact positions. Interfacial surface tension is a logical parameter to relate free energy and solvent contact area, but this macroscopic parameter must be used with great caution. It is suggested that water in the deep grooves, characteristic of the active sites of many enzymes, may have a substantially higher fugacity than bulk water as indicated, at least qualitatively, by the Kelvin equation based on surface curvature. Such water would be more easily displaced than its plane surface counterpart and could contribute significantly to ligand-binding energy.

Advances in the understanding and treatment of myocardial infarction have appeared over the past decade. One intervention technique receiving increasing emphasis is the development of multidisciplinary \"rehabilitation teams\" whose chief aim is to assist individuals in returning to former levels of medical and psychosocial functioning. Within the team approach, the mental health specialist clearly plays a significant role. Counselors can provide support and reassurance in the midst of the medical crisis and help to minimize stress related to rearrangements in family roles and routines. In this instance, brief sex counseling as part of an ongoing rehabilitation program serves to clarify misconceptions, reduce fears, and facilitate return to sexual activities after infarction. It is important to remember, however, that an accurate physiologic evaluation provides the foundation on which to base counseling efforts. Without adequate medical information, no amount of counseling expertise will succeed. Certainly the final decision to resume sexual behavior remains with the individual couple. The counselor's primary task is to emphasize that the myth of total abstinence is not applicable for most cardiac patients. In reality, it is possible and even highly beneficial for patient and spouse to return to their normal sexual relationship.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252503"}

The study is consistent with others reported in the recent literature in suggesting that most patients who survive myocardial infarction have multivessel disease. High early and late post-myocardial infarction mortality is comparable to that described for patients with two- and three-vessel occlusive disease. Knowledge of specific coronary anatomy and left ventricular function is critical in assessing post-myocardial infarction prognosis. This information is also important in defining optimal medical or surgical treatment. Unfortunately, the severity of the subjective clinical syndrome does not correlate well with the degree of anatomic findings or the prognosis.

This study examined the subjective needs of labouring patients. A convenience sample of 80 postpartum patients was interviewed. They described the nursing care they had received, indicated the most helpful nursing measure received, and rated their satisfaction with their nursing care. These answers were categorized into types of nursing care. These were supportive care nursing, physical care nursing, medications and combinations of these three. X2 calculations done between these categories and satisfaction scores indicated a significant relationship between the type of care a patient received and her satisfaction scores. Patients found combined care very satisfying, but supportive care was the decisive factor in the way patients viewed their nursing care. The most frequently mentioned element in supportive care was the ability of the nurse to be a sustaining presence. The nurse's ability to assess and to meet the patient's need or non-need for her presence was major factor in patient satisfaction with nursing care in this sample. The relationship between congruency (agreement between time wanted and time spent by the nurse at the bedside) and satisfaction scores was highly significant. Thus the ability to recognize and respond to the patient's need or non-need for her presence was a crucial factor in patient satisfaction and in the way in which a nurse allocated her time. The relationships between numbers of nurses caring for a patient, parity, length of labour, presence of visitors, worries about the baby and patient satisfaction scores were examined. All were non-significant. However numbers of nurses caring for a patient was defined as a contributing factor to the delivery of supportive care nursing. More nurses contributed to more supportive care nursing being given, but was not the major factor in the delivery of supportive care nursing. Finally it was shown that the administration of syntocinon to patients in this sample decreased patient satisfaction with nursing care. Implications and possible reasons for these results are discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252533"}

This paper was presented in the context of an international interdisciplinary conference on Priorities in Health Care. The focus of the paper is the relationship between the nurse's role and the demands of patients, now and in the future. The incongruence between patients' needs and their demands is discussed and the question is raised as to whether the nurse's skills and knowledge currently acquired will be appropriate to meet patients' needs and demands in the future. Future patient needs and demands are not the only external pressures on changes in the nurse's role; advances in medical treatment and technology and changing roles of other health professionals are others. The paper highlights the dilemma between the profession having to give way to such external pressures or the risk of preparing nurses for irrelevant roles. A case is made for greater interchangeability of first level health care workers through a common portal of entry. It is suggested that diversion into the various professional fields should occur after the foundation course to health care and suitable counselling. Among the top level professionally qualified nurses should be both generalists and specialists. A speciality of nursing generalism, as a parallel with general medical practice, is advocated. A plea is made for a liberating rather than a restricting interpretation of professionalism so that necessary changes in the nurse's role can be initiated and directed by the profession rather than being forced upon it by external pressures.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252535"}

Salmonella johannesburg has been prevalent in Hong Kong since 1973 and most strains were resistant to a multiplicity of antibiotics. The susceptibility of S. johannesburg strains isolated in a 5-year period from 1973 to 1977 to eight antimicrobial drugs including ampicillin (A), streptomycin (S), tetracycline (T), chloramphenicol (C), Kanamycin (K), sulphadiazine (Su), trimethoprim (Tm) and gentamicin (G) was tested by the agar dilution method. The proportion of strains resistant to chloramphenicol and ampicillin increased steadily during the 5-year period while those resistant to tetracycline decreased dramatically. This change was associated with an alteration of predominant patterns of antibiotic resistance: strains with the resistance pattern A.S.T.C.K.Su predominated in years 1973, 1974 and 1975 while those with the resistance pattern A.S.C.K.Su predominated in years 1976 and 1977. Analysis of the resistance patterns of S. johannesburg strains isolated from the same cases showed that the resistance pattern A.S.C.K.Su was more stable, and changed less frequently to other patterns of resistance than strains with the resistance pattern A.S.T.C.K.Su. In donor salmonella strains with the A.S.T.C.K.Su resistance pattern, transmissible factors carrying resistance to A.S.T.C.K.Su in toto, to A.S.T.C.Su,A.T.C.K.Su and to A or T alone were demonstrated. In donor salmonella strains with the A.S.C.K.Su resistance pattern, transmissible factors carrying resistance to A.S.C.K.Su in toto and to A.S.K.Su were detected.

Although surveys have documented the ignorance of American teenagers on sexual matters, and other data suggest that a substantial segment of the public favors a sex education program in the schools, implementation has been limited.  A questionnaire designed to test the feelings of public school teachers, students and community members was undertaken in a stable, conservative town of 1000 in Ohio.  Respondents were asked to indicate which of 17 sex education topics should be included in a curriculum, the appropriate grade level for each, and whether each should be required or elective.  They also ranked potential types of instructors, indicated interest in adult sex education, and rated desirability of student-parent and coeducational classes.  The 1st choice for teacher type was a \"sex education specialist,\" followed by a physician.  Slightly over 1/2 of teachers favored parent-child sex education classes, but fewer than 25% of students did.  Almost 2/3 of students favored coed classrooms for sex education, while 47.5% of teachers, about 1/3 of parents of school-age children, and fewer than 1/4 of persons without school-age children saw this as desirable.  Teachers were most in favor of adult sex education (83.8%), and nearly 2/3 of all adults responded positively.  A majority of all respondents favored including all 17 topics listed in a curriculum, but modal percentages of parents and persons without school-age children favored dropping masturbation and abortion from the sex education classroom, and homosexuality and premarital sexual relationships also met substantial opposition.  Most groups agreed that with few exceptions sex education topics were most appropriate for grades 7-9.

The present study discusses the development of dental health knowledge tests as part of an integrated dental health curriculum in the public school system of a rural community. It is part of a large project designed to test the effectiveness of a school-based dental health delivery system. Cognitive measures of dental health were designed to study the relationship of dental health knowledge to oral health behaviors. A review of the literature revealed no suitable dental health knowledge tests for grades K-6; new assessment measures were then developed by project staff. The tests consisted of 14 objectively scored tests--two parallel forms at each of the seven grade levels, K-6, and were administered four times to 1,942 students. Consistently, the tests have demonstrated high reliability estimates and low standard errors of measurement and indicate that the instruments are functioning as parallel forms and measuring the same dental concepts with equal precision.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252587"}

This paper discusses the importance of studying physical growth patterns in children and presents the results of a survey of height and weight measurements collected on 1,953 children ages 5--11 from 12 schools in a city in the southeastern United States. Approximately 40% of the sample children had height/weight disproportion. Twenty-seven percent of the sample children weighed more than normal for their height. Physical and psychological consequences of childhood obesity are discussed as a basis for intervention with children. The investigators believe that the problems of elevated weight in childhood merits a great deal more study so that groups at risk can be predicted and more effective treatment programs developed. For persons who are overweight, control of weight requires a change in behavior which is essentially an educational process; therefore, it would appear appropriate to have such programs placed within the school setting.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252594"}

Two groups of pregnant adolescents enrolled in the St. Paul, Minnesota Maternal and Infant Care Project were involved in this study. A retrospective analysis of obstetrical summary sheets of delivered pregnant adolescents was conducted to demonstrate the relationship of the availiability of a comprehensive, interdisciplinary program of prenatal care in a regular public school setting to the achievement of early and continuous prenatal care and to the minimizing of obstetrical complications of the pregnant adolescents who were students in the school. A total sample of 36 students who received prenatal care in the school clinic (study group) from 1973 to 1976 was compared with a random sample of 36 adolescent patients (matched for race) who received care at a non-school clinic (comparison group). The data demonstrated that the study group initiated care earlier and had more total prenatal visits than did the comparison group. Also demonstrated were fewer obstetrical complications in the study group than in the comparison group. The comparison group had more low birth weight infants and more complicated deliveries than did the study group. Therefore, the results of this study support the initial objective and may have significance for educators and health personnel.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252595"}

When a pilot study provided evidence that insulin may increase the rate of healing of decubitus ulcers, this study attempted to answer the question: Is topical insulin therapy an effective treatment regimen for decubitus ulcers? The experimental study utilized a two-group, before-after design. Twenty-nine geriatric subjects were randomly assigned to either the experimental or the control group. The single independent variable was the topical application of ten units of regular insulin (U.S.P.) twice daily. The dependent variable was the surface area of the decubitus ulcer measured in square millimeters. Rate of healing was defined as decrease in surface area over time. Data were also gathered on extraneous variables believed to influence the healing process. The F test was used to test the research hypothesis that experimental subjects would have an increased rate of healing. When comparison of group means on day seven and day 15 revealed no significant differences, the research hypothesis was rejected. Pearson product moment correlation procedures were utilized to determine if there were differences between extraneous variables and the rate of healing.

Confusion in 91 hospitalized patients over 60 years of age who had sustained hip fracture and undergone subsequent surgical repair was examined in seven hospitals in five states. The relationship of nursing activities, patient, surgical, and environmental variables to the extent of confusion apparent in the sample was explored. Data were gathered by record review, patient testing, observation, and interview. Patient testing and interview were carried out on the first, third, and fifth postoperative days; the patient's caregiver on those days was also interviewed. The major dependent variables used in multiple regression analysis were memory (immediate and recent), observed behavior, and patient's self-report of mental clarity. Results showed that the most consistent predictors of postoperative confusion were the presence of confusion on admission to the hospital or confusion during the preoperative period. Greater postoperative mobility and freedom from urinary problems resulted in less confusion. Being male and of increased age were risk factors. The presence of timepieces and patients' use of television were associated with higher levels of mental clarity. Patients in private rooms tended to do better on memory testing than patients in rooms shared with others. Nursing personnel's major action in response to patient confusion was that of conscious attention to orientation, explanation, or reassurance. Use of restraints was relatively frequent.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252701"}

There are many things to consider when deciding upon the various instruments to use to monitor a newborn. The availability of these monitoring devices should be considered a boon both to the care of the sick newborn and to the nurse, for the data collection process is greatly enhanced in efficiency and accuracy. Nurses have assumed increasing responsibility for data collection, and with the aid of a variety of monitoring systems they will be better able to perform this task. They will also be left with more time for data synthesis and other aspects of patient care. The small amount of time that is necessary to check the machines for safety and functioning is well compensated for by the amount of data derived. The data contribute vastly to the maintenance of homeostasis and the early detection of problems in the neonate.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252713"}

The primary purpose of this study was to develop instruments that reliably measure belief and behavioral intentions toward the elderly with control for social desirability set within the belief measure. Related purposes involved evaluation of the impact of a gerontologic nursing course on beliefs and behavioral intentions of nursing students toward the elderly. Data were collected over a three-month period from 153 volunteers in a baccalaureate nursing program. One group was tested both before and immediately after a gerontologic nursing course; three other groups were tested immediately, one, and two years after the course. A paired-comparison type belief scale and a multiple-act behavioral intention scale were developed and used in the study. The Kogan Old People and Marlowe-Crowne Social Desirability scales served as outside criteria. Both new instruments were found to be highly reliable. An association between beliefs and behavioral intentions above the .30 level was found between scores on the behavioral intention and Kogan scales, but not between behavioral intention and belief scores.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252706"}

Findings revealed that nurse clinicians with moderate need for achievement, high need for affiliation, and moderate need for power performed significantly (p less than .03) more professional activities than nurses with high need for achievement, low need for affiliation, and high need for power. Other findings showed a significant (p less than .04) negative relationship between chance locus of control and self-appraisals.

Methods were developed to permit recovery of N-acetylserine in a yield of 30--40% from N-acetylseryl-tRNA added to liver homogenates and cell-free incubations. [14C]Serine and [3H]acetate were injected into rats pretreated with iron and into rats after partial hepatectomy, and aminoacyl-tRNA was isolated from their livers. The amount of radioactivity associated with N-acetylserine in the amino acids released by hydrolysis from the aminoacyl-tRNA was negligible. No formation of N-acetylseryl-tRNA could be observed in incubations of acetyl CoA and seryl-tRNA or tRNA with enzyme fractions from liver of rats pretreated with iron. It is concluded that previous reports of the existence of N-acetylseryl-tRNA in rat liver are erroneous.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/252925"}

Carbenicillin has been advocated for treatment of infections caused by Bacteroides fragilis and other anaerobic bacteria. Wide-scale use of the drug in this setting could result in a substantial increase in carbenicillin-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an effect that would have serious implications. Thirty-four strains of B. fragilis, one-half from bacteremic infections, were tested in vitro, and penicillin G was found to be twice as active as carbenicillin on an equal weight basis; 94% of the strains were inhibited by 32 microgram of penicillin/ml, a level easily achieved therapeutically. Penicillin killed B. fragilis organisms as rapidly as carbenicillin. In two subjects given equivalent doses (100 mg/kg intravenously) of carbenicillin and aqueous penicillin G, the bactericidal activity of serum against B. fragilis after administration of each drug was the same. Controlled clinical trials of treatment of anaerobic bacterial infections with penicillin G in high dosage, carbenicillin (or closely related ticarcillin), clindamycin, and chloramphenicol should be undertaken.

A methodology is described to utilize dormitory parents in direct care activities for the early intervention of behavioral problems of the school-age child. Specific information gathering, assessment, treatment, referral and follow-up tasks were defined and incorporated into a problem-solving protocol which served to guide the dormitory parents through the defined problem-solving process, to promote early identification of students with a behavioral problem, and to expedite referral to a professional for students with more severe problems. The methodology was pilot-tested in a large American Indian boarding school and demonstrated the feasibility and efficacy of dormitory parents in a therapeutic role as one component of a team approach to the management of behavioral problems. The pilot study resulted in a significant reduction in the rates of alcohol abuse and school dropouts and deserves application in a variety of settings.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253166"}

Although the term venereal disease has been synonymous with gonorrhea and syphilis, the Center for Disease Control now states that the new cases of herpes simplex type - 2, trichomoniasis and candidiasis are rapidly approaching and, in certain instances, have surpassed the annual cases of syphilis and gonorrhea. Trichomoniasis and candidiasis are at times unbearable to millions of women. In relation to genital herpes, the circumstances are much more serious. It is rapidly approaching epidemic proportions, it has no cure, and it can be detrimental to the unsuspecting pregnant woman. It is imperative that, as health professionals, we broaden our teaching efforts to include these \"other\" venereal diseases and help our students to do what they can within the total framework of their own knowledge and behavior to avoid and treat venereal infections. Traditionally the term \"venereal disease\" has been thought of as being synonymous with only gonorrhea and syphilis because of their high incidence rates. The Center for Disease Control estimates that there are 3 million new cases of trichomoniasis and 300,000 to 1 million cases of herpes genitalis, compared to one million cases of gonorrhea and about 20,000 cases of syphilis each year. These incidence rates certainly indicate a need for our educational programs to include trichomoniasis and herpes simplex, as well as the traditional coverage of gonorrhea and syphilis, in our health education classes. But what are these other common, sexually transmitted diseases? What are their causes, symptoms and complications, and most important, how can they be prevented or at least treated?", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253167"}

There exists in schools an unwritten set of presuppositions defining \"normalcy.\" Students going beyond these boundaries of normalcy are encouraged (sometimes punitively) to change their behaviors. However, there is a growing awareness that not all children going beyond normalcy do so willingly. The phenomenon here termed \"involuntary deviance\" represents a way of perceiving and dealing with special students. An example, the case of children with epilepsy, is presented to illustrate the need for health educators and other educators to be familiar with such medical problems and, among their students, to help decrease the social stigma attached to some of these conditions. This need will become more urgent as the practice of mainstreaming students becomes increasingly prevalent.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253169"}

This article describes the theory, methodology, and effectiveness of three natural methods of family planning: rhythm by calendar, strict basal body temperature rhythm, and combination calendar-BBT rhythm.  The author also appeals to family planning counselors to provide appropriate support and thorough teaching of the rhythmn method to those couples who choose to practice it and emphasizes that family planning counselors have the responsibility to present this method in a positive way when presenting alternatives to clients.  For rhythm might be the method of choice for the woman whose cycles are on the longer, more regular side and for whom the abstinence during the fertile period would present no hardship to the couple's normal pattern of sexual relations.  Contraceptive devices could be used as a supplementary measure during the fertile period.  The necessity for the cooperation of both partners is, however, essential to the workability of the natural methods of family planning.  High motivation, high knowledge of human reproductive physiology, and use of BBT all contribute to raising the effectiveness of the natural methods of family planning.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253185"}

The experience of Britain's National Health Service since 1948 suggests that there is a conflict between different social values and policy aims, and that progress toward achieving more community or worker control is constrained by the pursuit of other desired objectives. The egalitarian ideology of the NHS emphasizes central control to achieve a nationally equitable distribution of resources. Emphasis on coordination between the NHS and other social services limits freedom of action. Democracy as accountable policy-making on a national scale may therefore be incompatible with democracy as direct control, whether by community or workers. To encourage participation means accepting diversity in the provision of health care and the multiplication of small, self-governing units. Similarly, worker control is professional autonomy writ large and may therefore conflict with community control.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253198"}

Decisions regarding the need for a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy should be made only at this time and never during an episode of acute tonsillitis. Frequency of acute attacks should not by itself be the indication for surgery. The family physician who performs tonsillectomy and adenoidectomies has an opportunity to correlate the preoperative and postoperative clinical course of the patient with the findings at the time of surgery. In my experience, patients carefully selected for tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy on the basis of these criteria do benefit from the surgery, and the clinical improvement is sustained in the long-term follow up of these patients.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253367"}

The fetuses of nine pregnant ewes were chronically cannulated between 86 and 130 days with cannulae in one carotid artery, one jugular vein, the fetal bladder and the amniotic cavity. The effects of infused AVP on fetal urine flow rate and composition were studied. A dose of 35 pmol. h-1 always caused an increase in urine osmolality and a decrease in flow rate and free water clearance without change in blood pressure. Higher doses (140 pmol.h-1) were significantly pressor and caused increased excretion of sodium, chloride, urea and creatinine. Although this dose always caused an increase in urine osmolality, in five experiments the flow rate also rose. It is concluded that the ovine fetus has the ability to control its own urine flow and composition, and possibly also amniotic fluid volume and composition.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253374"}

Conscious Merino ewes were given an intravenous hypertonic sodium chloride load of 4 mmol.min-1 for 100 min. This resulted in increases in urine flow, sodium and potassium excretion and plasma sodium concentration and osmolality. Urinary vasopressin output and solute-free water reabsorption increased and plasma renin activity declined. Renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) rose, as did the solute clearance. The change in urinary osmolality was related to the initial urine osmolality such that when the initial urine osmolality was high the urine became more dilute, and vice versa. Tubular sodium reabsorption increased but the fractional reabsorption rate fell. It is suggested that the increase in GFR was at least partly due to the increase in AVP and that the electrolyte loss can be accounted for by the increase in GFR without necessarily involving AVP or other hormonal effects at the tubular level.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253375"}

The pattern of breathing following the breaking-point of sixty breath-holds has been studied in five healthy adults and compared with the pattern during recovery from CO2-rebreathing. The volume and direction of the first respiratory movement, and the VT, V relation for the first four complete breaths was measured. Only when breath-holds were terminated with an inspiration was the accumulated drive to breathe reflected in an increased volume of the first respiratory movement: terminating expirations simply returned the chest to the resting respiratory level. The volume of the first inspiration was not influenced by the intervention of a terminating expiration, suggesting that expiratory movements do not dissipate the non-chemical component of the drive to breathe. In three of the five subjects the tidal volumes for given levels of ventilation were greater following breath-holding than following rebreathing. This altered pattern of breathing has been interpreted in terms of an insiratory-augmenting reflex.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253376"}

We have reviewed the distribution of portal circulations throughout the animal body; they are commoner than is generally supposed. Most portal circulations consist of two serial capillary beds connected by one or more larger vessels. We have called these 'convergent' portal circulations: examples are hepatic portal, placental, hypophysial, renal, ovarian and testicular circulations, as are parts of the lymphatic circulation. A second type of portal circulation, which is less common, consists of two serial capillary beds that are not connected by larger vessels. These we have called 'continuous' portal circulations: adrenal and pancreatic circulations are examples of this type. When a countercurrent concentrating mechanism exists in the body it is always part of the primary or secondary bed of a convergent portal circulation, though some convergent portal circulations are not associated with countercurrent mechanisms.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253377"}

Accordingly, enzymes and other physiological parameters were monitored in four subjects cooled four times, under controlled conditions in the laboratory, to a mean auditory canal temperature of 35.0 degrees C. Mild hypovolaemia and acidosis is occurred.

No statistically significant sex differences among these parameters were found. In 36 specimens (23 males and 13 females), the plasma iron turnover was determined using 59Fe. The results obtained in this species, expressed per 100 ml-1 blood. day-1 and Kg-1 body weight. day-1, were compared with those of turkeys, ducks and chickens calculated from earlier papers. The highest values versus body weight were observed in pigeons. Organ (liver, spleen, tibia, heart, leg muscle, ribs, sternal keel, gonads and blood) distribution of 59Fe intravenous injection was analyzed during a period from 5 min up to 120 days (19 different times) in groups of 4 pigeons. At the 6 h period, the organs retained the highest dose (20% of total Fe injected), but by the 2nd day period, the radioiron in the blood represented about 98% of the total injected. A fast iron uptake by the circulatory blood was checked and compared with that of other species (domestic fowl, ducks and turkeys). The reticulocyte count in pigeons normally ranged from 4 to 12%, which was consistent with these results. A linear decreasing radioactivity in blood, with an inflexion point on the 40th day was observed. An inverse correspondence between blood and liver was found. Content in other organs decreased uniformly with time, except the heart where the iron content was practically constant during the whole time. Ribs and sternal keel are erythropoietic organs in young pigeons.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253379"}

HR 756, a new parenteral cephalosporin, was compared with cefazolin and carbenicillin for activity against a total of 264 strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp., Proteus mirabilis, Proteus spp. (indole positive), Enterobacter spp., Salmonella typhi, Serratia marcescens, Providencia stuartii, and Staphylococcus aureus. In every comparison, except that with the last organism, HR 756 was clearly more active than cefazolin and carbenicillin. All three compounds had similar activity against penicillin-susceptible staphylococci; against penicillin-resistant strains, HR 756 and cefazolin were equally active and superior to carbenicillin. HR 756 was compared with penicillin for activity against strains of Streptococcus pyogenes, Lancefield group D streptococci, and Neisseria gonorrhoeae; with ampicillin against Haemophilus influenzae; and with cefoxitin against Bacteriodes fragilis. HR 756 was clearly more active than the respective reference compounds in all of these comparisons, except those involving the streptococci. HR 756 and penicillin were essentially equally active against S. pyogenes; against Lancefield group D, penicillin was 32 times as active as HR 756. HR 756 not only compared favorably with the reference compounds with respect to relative activity, but also effected growth inhibition of essentially all test organisms (P. aeruginosa and group D streptococci excepted) at remarkably low concentrations ranging from 0.015 to 2.0 mug/ml. A series of seven transfers of selected strains of E. coli, Klebsiella spp., S. aureus, and P. aeruginosa through medium containing HR 756 led to emergence of strains with significant levels of resistance to the agent. Resistance to HR 756 was retained for at least seven transfers through plain medium.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253572"}

Modeccin inhibits polypeptide-chain elongation catalysed by Artemia salina (brine shrimp) ribosomes by inactivating the 60 S ribosomal subunit. Among the individual steps of elongation, peptide-bond formation, catalysed by 60 S peptidyltransferase, is unaffected by the toxin, whereas the binding of EF 2 (elongation factor 2) to ribosomes is strongly inhibited. Modeccin does not affect the poly(U)-dependent non-enzymic binding of either deacylated tRNAPhe or phenylalanyl-tRNA to ribosomes. The inhibitory effect of modeccin on the EF 1 (elongation factor 1)-dependent binding of phenylalanyl-tRNA is discussed, since it is decreased by tRNAPhe, which stimulates the binding reaction. The analysis of the distribution of ribosome-bound radioactivity during protein synthesis shows that modeccin consistently inhibits the radioactivity bound as long-chain peptides, but depending on the experimental conditions, can leave unchanged or even greatly stimulates the radioactivity bound as phenylalanyl-tRNA and/or short-chain peptides. It is concluded that, during the complete elongation cycle, modeccin does not affect the binding of the first aminoacyl-tRNA to ribosomes, but inhibits some step in the subsequent repetitive activity of either EF 1 or EF 2. The results obtained indicate that the mechanism of action of modeccin is very similar to that of ricin and related plant toxins such as abrin and crotin.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253592"}

RPC-5 chromatography was used to examine the phenylalanyl transfer RNA (Phe-tRNA) of 25 normal rat and mouse tissues including adult, fetal, and regenerating liver; whole embryos; and other adult organs. Only a single major isoaccepting Phe-tRNA was found in every case. Phe-tRNA's from 25 transplantable rat tumors and 33 transplantable mouse tumors were similarly examined. Seventeen rat tumors and 10 mouse tumors, of a wide spectrum of histological types, were found to have an additional, tumor-associated Phe-tRNA isoacceptor. This tumor-associated Phe-tRNA was not found in the livers of animals bearing tumors that contained this isoacceptor. Differences in chromatographic behavior between the rat and mouse tumor-associated Phe-tRNA's strongly suggest that they have different structures. Our data suggest that these differences result from different degrees of incompleteness of posttranscriptional modification, most likely at the normally very hypermodified Wye (formerly called Y) base.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253626"}

The antibacterial activity of a combination of equal parts of amoxycillin and flucloxacillin was compared in vitro and in vivo with that of amoxycillin and flucloxacillin against a range of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The combination generally showed additive effects against bacteria sensitive to the individual penicillins and there was no evidence of antagonism, but synergistic effects were observed between amoxycillin and flucloxacillin against certain amoxycillin-resistant gram-negative bacilli. The extent of synergism varied according to the particular bacterial species under test and synergy was observed only against bacteria with chromosomally-mediated beta-lactamases and not against bacteria with R-factor-mediated beta-lactamases. In general, amoxycillin + flucloxacillin demonstrated activity against experimental mouse infections in good agreement with demonstrated activity against experimental mouse infections in good agreement with its in vitro activity, and synergy was produced against a range of gram-negative bacilli in vivo.

Of 97 well-defined strains of Pseudomonas, isolated from sputum of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of several antibiotics was determined with a broth dilution method. The majority of the strains were resistant to ampicillin and cephalothin, moderately susceptible to carbenicillin (70% to 100 microgram/ml) and highly susceptible to piperacillin (100% to 25 microgram/ml, 88% to 6.25 microgram and 60% to 3.12 microgram/ml).

In six patients, endocarditis developed after prosthetic valve surgery; among the other ten patients (the medical group), eight had known antecedent valvular disease. The skin was thought to be the source of infection in eight patients, suggesting that prompt treatment of skin infections and avoidance of injections in patients with valvular disease are important measures in the prevention of this disease. Patients with prosthetic valve endocarditis were infected with antibiotic-resistant organisms and had a higher mortality than those in the medical group (83% versus 20%). Bacterial isolates from three patients with prosthetic valve endocarditis were resistant to methicillin, and two of these three isolates also were resistant to cephalothin by quantitative susceptibility testing. The only patient with prosthetic valve endocarditis to survive was operated upon early in the course of his illness. These observation, coupled with the high mortality in this series and in others, has prompted us to advocate early surgery in prosthetic valve endocarditis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/253687"}

Relatives of critically ill patients were able to identify their needs during the intensive care phase of hospitalization. The universal need identified as very important was the need for hope. Other important needs were concerned with receiving adequate and honest information and feeling that the hospital staff members were concerned about the patient. Although several of the needs appeared to be of great concern to relatives, all the needs were considered very important by at least one relative. The majority of needs were perceived as being met consistently. Various resources were used by the relatives to meet their needs; however, specific needs were expected to be met by physicians and nurses. Since many relatives have similar needs, the use of a group process to deal with them should be investigated. A group process allows for sharing and support among the relatives and also allows one  staff member to work with several relatives. The relatives perceived the role of health care personnel to be patientcentered only. If the patient is a member of a family, then the family and staff should recognize that the health care personnel are helping relatives because it is a crucial part of total patient care. This area in providing total patient care needs to be studied carefully. The relatives of critically ill patients have important needs in this crisis period.

Treatment of rats with ethionine was found to cause severe impairment in the aminoacylation capacity of tRNA. This effect was only observed when assayed in injected oocytes, while invitro assays of aminoacylation failed to detect differences between normal tRNA and tRNA from ethionine treated animals. The effect of ethionine on the tRNA population was not uniform and differed for various amino acid specific tRNAs. Thus liver tRNA from ethionine treated rats showed a decreased capacity for phenylalanine aminoacylation, while no change was found in the case of leucine. On the other hand, the level of histidine aminoacylation was higher for tRNA from ethionine treated animals. An even more complex response was observed with methionine aminoacylation where tRNA from ethionine treated animals showed an initially faster rate than control tRNA. With more prolonged incubation periods, the methionyl-tRNA from ethionine treated animals was deacylated at an accelerated rate while the level of normal methionyl-tRNA remained almost constant. In addition to the aminoacylation reaction, the participation of aminoacyl-tRNA in protein synthesis was severely impaired. In this case, both the injected oocyte system and the cell-free wheat germ assay revealed these differences which were manifested with various mRNA and viral RNA preparations.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/254045"}

An intramuscular injection into a relaxed muscle is believed to result in less discomfort than an injection into a contracted muscle. When the femur is internally rotated, the gluteus maximus muscle is relaxed. The hypothesis that a dorsogluteal injection with the femur internally rotated will cause less discomfort than when the femur is externally rotated was tested in 44 surgical patients who received two injections of preoperative medication. Each patient received an injection of a narcotic medication and one of diazepam. All possible combinations of the factors--position (internal and external rotation), order of injection (first or second injection), and medication (narcotic or diazepam)--were determined, and patients were randomly assigned to one of these conditions. Patients rated their perceived discomfort after each injection on a five-point scale. The hypothesis was supported by discomfort ratings from injections of both types of medications, although diazepam injections caused significantly more discomfort than injections of narcotics. Older patients tended to report less discomfort from diazepam injections than younger patients. Sex, order of injection, and nurse administering the injection did not significantly influence discomfort ratings.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/254058"}

Health status was measured before and after one year of implementation by specific observations and structured interviews. Residents who received the extensive nursing program: reported increases in their positive perceptions of their own health, learned to respond effectively to health screening programs, and showed increases in the number who were under primary care.

As a result, 12 categories of patient problems were identified, which were subjected to a latent partition analysis to identify common categorization. Subjects then were asked to decide on appropriate patient interventions. The two groups--experts and novices--were compared re: mean number of data elements requested, mean number of elements requested by LPA category, t test of the mean weights for each category, and rank order correlations of category emphasis. The 12 protocols were then tested for conformity to experience by nine judges.

A prospective study of 32 normal, married primigravidas was conducted to determine the relationship between psychological factors in the third trimester of pregnancy and progress in two defined phases of labor. Data were analyzed for the total group and with five subjects deleted to control partially for the effect of medications. Psychological variables measured in pregnancy had significant correlations with variables measured at the onset of phase two labor. Conflict concerning the acceptance of pregnancy showed the most significant relationships to the phase two labor variables with correlations of .39 with anxiety, .59 with plasma epinephrine, -.70 and -.52 with two adjacent Montevideo units, and .58 with length of labor in phase two (3-10 cm cervical dilation). Other pregnancy variables which significantly correlated with the labor variables were identification of a motherhood role, history of psychological counseling or psychiatric treatment, the trait scale of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and fears related to helplessness, pain, loss of control, and loss of self-esteem. Several psychological variables measured in pregnancy also correlated significantly with length of labor in phase three and type of delivery.

In summary, the balloon-tipped, flow-directed catheter is used almost universally to obtain important diagnostic information at the bedside with a relatively low risk of serious complications. The flexibility of the catheter and the protection of the catheter tip with the inflated balloon as it passes through the heart chambers have contributed to the low incidence of complications associated with cardiac arrhythmias. Although serious complications are rare, they have been reported to occur. It should always be kept in mind that this technique is an invasive one and can be potentially dangerous. Most of the complications associated with flow-directed catheters can be avoided, however, if they do occur the user should be able to recognize the problem immediately and correct it if possible.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/254671"}

Experience with this method in 24 consecutive patients indicates a distinct advantage over the antecubital fossa approach: A venous cutdown is not necessary, the pulmonary artery is readily entered, fluoroscopy is not required, the patient is free to move both arms, and thrombophlebitis and infection occur infrequently. With proper attention to landmarks such as the clavicular tubercle, the procedure may be performed with facility. The major complication, pneumothorax, is minimized if mechanical ventilators are briefly disconnected during the subclavian puncture.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/254672"}

Differences between the nurses and science students not attributable to age were observed in Factors A : Authoritarianism, B: Benevolence and D: Social restrictiveness. The nurses scored lower on the above mentioned factors while they scored higher on Interpersonal etiology and Mental hygiene ideology. Also intercorrelation between the five factors was done.

Since victims of cardiac arrest have a more favorable outcome when CPR is immediately applied, it is important to continue to motivate individuals to learn proper technique. It is equally important to ensure that individuals who have learned CPR maintain adequate recall of the procedure. With the intent of enhancing recall of the principles of CPR, a wallet-size plastic card was developed which, when tilted, creates the illusion of movements. Thus, the card enables a viewer to review the dynamic aspects of CPR and reinforces the essential steps of establishing an airway and maintaining breathing and circulation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/254674"}

A group of 201 ICU staff nurses were questioned regarding those activities they perceived as (1) most important, (2) most time-consuming, and (3) most professional. This information was collected to provide a data base for defining the role of the ICU staff nurse and evaluating the implications for nursing administration and staff development. The results indicated that the nurses are doing what they perceive to be important, but not what they perceive to be professional. There were differences in ranking relationships when the basic educational preparation of the nurse was considered as a variable. The results indicate that role perception was more a function of job requirements than a function of educational background. Comparing functional groupings of activities, the nurses ranked direct patient care activities high in time consumption and for importance when compared to nondirect patient care activities, but neither was ranked high for professionalism. This implies a disparity between perception of importance vs. professionalism.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/254677"}

After a discussion of models of nursing, the author focuses on what nurses are and argues that their perceptions are significantly different from those of medical practitioners.

Commitment is put into the prespective of 'accountability' and its effects on assessing quality of care and nurse-patient relationships are discussed. The author also argues that in certain circumstances she would contemplate defecting from 'being a nurse', particularly with regards to her personal concern for the mentally disordered. But the message that pervades the paper is that once one is a nurse, one is a nurse forever. Finally researchers are admonished to strive for 'an elucidation of the nature of commitment'.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/254692"}

The inability to transfer classroom knowledge to clinical nursing practice is a common learning problem encountered by many nursing students. Manifestations of this problem may involve both the academic performance and personal development of the students: inability to solve problems in nursing situations; inflexibility and rigidity in the exercise of nursing care; fragmentation of nursing care; and apathy towards clinical practice. Because of the seriousness of this learning problem, a plan must be formulated to rectify it. This plan is developed with major emphasis on the teaching process, the student and the curriculum. One of the important roles of a teacher is to help students understand many widely useful relationships, principles or generalizations. In order to enhance transfer, nursing students must be given ample opportunities to apply the learned principles in a variety of nursing situations. Learning is a self-active process; an ideal transfer demands the students' conscious realization that transfer is possible. Students need to be committed to the belief that particular facts in the classroom study are pertinent in other situations. To promote transfer, the curriculum must be designed in such a way so that it has transfer value in terms of the students' goals and purposes. Furthermore, proper sequence of curricular activities is crucial if transfer of classroom knowledge to clinical practice is to occur.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/254694"}

The problem of establishing criteria to be considered when selecting clinical areas for basic nurse training was investigated by the Teaching team from Bexley Hospital Nurse Education Centre, Kent. Establishments involved in training personnel in occupations other than nursing were examined and evaluated in order to see if comparisons could be made. Unfortunately the establishments chosen provided little information in respect of learner placement in nursing. Contributions to the nursing literature in respect of the subject being considered were sparse, but articles by Martin (1976), Roper (1976), Schröck (1973) and Strohmann (1977) were interesting and of considerable value. Whilst the project at Bexley involved examination of the more obvious criteria used in the selection of training areas, considerable attention was paid to the attitudes of clinical nursing personnel towards nurse education and training. Replies to an educational questionnaire devised by the team revealed many significant differences between the attitudes of those nurses involved in basic nurse training in the hospital's wards and departments when compared with those of other teaching and service personnel. A checklist of criteria was ultimately complied and it was suggested that a further comparative study emphasizing the attitude component of this project should be made in 12 months time.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/254695"}

The past 10 years have seen a shift in the master's level preparation of nurses. The majority of nurses currently seeking advanced preparation choose clinical specialization as the functional area rather than teaching. Such a shift in focus reflects the ever increasing specialization of services associated with an ever-growing complex society. Although the shift in focus of preparation and the concomitant change in curriculum design have been documented, few scientific investigations have been conducted on the graduates from master's programmes. Of those studies that have been conducted, the majority have focused on the differential personal characteristics of graduate nursing students in different types of programmes. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between a nurse's area of functional preparation in a master's degree programme and the individual's level of professionalism. The independent variable of the study was functional area of preparation in a master's programme. The dependent variables became enrolment in a formal programme of study, subscription to professional journals, attendance at non-formal educational programmes, number of authored publications, membership in professional organizations and employment in prepared area, as these seemed to reflect the criteria of professionalism explicated by Flexner (1915). The data for the study were gleaned from questionnaires sent to the 637 individuals who had graduated from the programme. Of the 395 questionnaires that were returned, only 272 were usable. This number represented 43% of the graduate population. The chi-square test was used to analyse the data. Each of the chi-square values for association between professionalism and graduate specialty was found to be significant. Postgraduates prepared as teachers met Flexner's criteria more often than did postgraduates prepared as clinical specialists.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/254696"}

The factors to be removed are: (i) the witch hunt against management, which has become the scapegoat for other ills; (ii) the medical model of health care, which is no longer relevant or practical; (iii) the industrial model, which has forced the NHS into an inappropriate style of management, trade unionism and employment patterns.

That process involves identifying and clarifying values, value labeling and generalization, examining the possible consequences of value decision, recognizing and resolving value conflict, and forming qualified decisions. It is not, however, necessary to proceed through that exact sequence of steps. For example, values discussion may begin with the teacher helping a students to recognize a value conflict. From that point, the discussion may move the identification and labeling of values. Consequently, there is flexibility in how this model may be used in the classroom. This model is developed on the premise that people who use such a process in making decisions relating to social-ethnical issues enhance their functioning within a democratic society. It is suggested that people who utilize this process in relation to health issues can likewise enhance the effectiveness of their health-related decisions. Hopefully, there will be a yield of postive health behaviors.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/254811"}

Fiftynine cases of abomasal displacement were registered during a 10 year period in a veterinary district in Norway with a dairy cow population of approx. 2500. Of these, 88% were left displacements and 12% right displacements. Ten per cent recovered spontaneously without subsequent relapse. Corrective surgery was performed on the remainder, and 92% of these recovered completely. Surgery was, in most cases, performed on the same day as the diagnosis of abomasal displacement was made. The displacements occurred at all times of the year: 86% of cases involved cows in third or subsequent lactation 95% were diagnosed within the period 4--64 days after calving, and 70% of the cows had been treated for other illness with disturbance of digestion during the week immediately prior to the demonstration of the displacement. In a further 25%, ketosis was diagnosed at the same time as the displacement. Etiology and pathogenesis are discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/254885"}

The 24-hour variation in physiological and psychological functioning within the individual and interpersonal differences were investigated in relation to the nature of social interaction between individuals. Level of activation, body temperature, and interpersonal conflict were studied in a sample of 16 married couples for a period of six weekdays of routine activity. Homogeneity was a major factor in sample selection. Body temperature was measured every hour during the waking time by electronic thermometer, and level of activation was measured four times a day on alternate forms of a self-report adjective  checklist. Interpersonal conflict, defined as perceived fulfillment of emotional and interaction needs, was measured in the morning and late day. The interpersonal Conflict Scale with established validity was constructed for the study and had two alternate forms of equal reliability. An index of desynchrony between partners for both temperature and activation was calculated for each day of data collection by the following method: The deviation score from the overall six-day mean was determined for each measurement time for each spouse and for each variable. Absolute values of the differences between deviation scores were added to obtain an index of desynchrony in that variable for the day. A daily mean of interpersonal conflict scores for both partners was also calculated. The hypotheses that a desynchrony between partners in body temperature rhythm and in level of activation rhythm would be positively related to conflict were tested by the Pearson product moment correlation.

Three hundred actively employed female registered professional nurses representing four cultural groups (white Anglo-Saxon, black, Jewish, and Hispanic) participated in a study to investigate nurses' attitudes toward culturally different patients. Cattell's 16 Personality Factor Questionnaire and Rokeach's Dogmatism Scale were used to measure the independent variables of ego defensiveness and open-closed mindedness. The Cultural Attitude Scale which was used to measure nurses' attitudes was developed by the investigator. Lower ego defensiveness of the nurses was found to result in more positive attitudes toward Hispanic patients regarding cultural attitudes and beliefs (p = .05). The more open minded the nurse, the more positive were attitudes toward all patients regarding nursing care-patient interaction (p = .01 for the white patient, p = .001 for the Hispanic, Jewish, and black patients) and cultural attitudes and beliefs. The data supported the hypothesis that ego defensiveness and open-closed mindedness predict greater variance in attitudes than one variable alone for all patients regarding nursing care-patient interaction and cultural attitudes and beliefs.

This study replicated a 1975 study that tested the theoretical proposition that duration experience is related to the processing of environmental events and that changes in the load and complexity of auditory information will change temporal experience. Duration experience was measured by the productive judgment of a 40-second interval and the retrospective estimate of a 150-minute interval. The sample consisted of 60 men and 60 women, aged 18--35 years, who had no known physical or mental health problems. Subjects rested in bed for two and one-half hours. Each subject received one of four forms of auditory information: decoded heavy, decoded light, coded heavy, and coded light. Three hypotheses were tested: 1) Duration experience will be shorter for decoded light than for coded heavy auditory information. 2) Duration experience will be shorter for subjects in decoded than for subjects in coded auditory information. 3) Duration experience will be shorter for subjects who assign a positive value to the auditory information than for those who assign a negative value. None of the hypotheses was supported by the data. The differences that were demonstrated in the first study did not occur. The major points of diversion in the two studies were the difference in geographic location of the sample, the method of judging a 40-second interval, and payment or nonpayment to the participating subjects.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/254895"}

In testing the effect of grading versus nongrading of formative evaluations on cognitive learning and affective behaviors of graduate nursing students the following hypotheses were formulated: The experimental (E) group will learn and demonstrate affective behaviors significantly more than control I (CI) and II (CII) groups. Subjects were 95 graduate nursing students. E group subjects (N = 38) were taught by means of FE, with grades. CI (N = 32) and CII (N = 25) groups were taught by means of lecture-discussion and FE without grades, respectively. The content covered conditions of learning and instruction in nursing. Pre- and posttests provided data on cognitive learning. Affective measures and demographic data were obtained only at the posttest. The hypotheses were tested by means of t test. Fisher's Exact Probability Test and Pearson were done to test distribution and relationships between variables. Results showed that: The E group learned significantly more than the CI group, but the CII group learned significantly more than the E group; all groups learned significantly; there were no significant differences among groups in affective behaviors although CII subjects scored highest.

No pregnancies occurred. The predominant side effects were irregular vaginal bleeding, headache, weight gain, and acne. Administration of the drug was stopped by the investigator in four patients (14%) because of the onset of headaches. Four patients discontinued the drug for other reasons. In 8 of 26 subjects (31%), endometrial biopsy in the third treatment cycle showed secretory endometrium. This suggests a variable central suppression with the 5-mg dose schedule.

Virulent strains of staphylococci are known to resist phagocytic destruction better than avirulent strains. In this context, in vitro elimination by human polymorphonuclear leukocytes of eight methicillin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus of unknown virulence was studied. After incubation for 1, 3, 5, or 24 hr in a modified phagocytic assay, the methicillin-resistant strains survived as well as other virulent but methicillin-sensitive strains of S. aureus. Highly resistant subpopulations were obtained from three parent strains, and a methicillin-sensitive revertant subpopulation from one resistant parent strain. All subpopulations were eliminated to the same extent as were the moderately resistant parent strains. When the phagocytic assay was performed in the presence of 25 microgram of methicillin/ml, only the methicillin-sensitive strains and the sensitive subpopulation derived from one resistant parent strain were eliminated after incubation for 24 hr. These in vitro data are further evidence against the use of methicillin in infections due to these organisms.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/255138"}

To measure physical sensations experienced by women undergoing saline abortion, 7 female patients were interviewed within 5-19 days after the abortion procedure with open-ended and fixed-choice questions which elicit recall of physical sensations.  The group recalled a total of 105 distinct sensations, with each woman recalling a mean of 22 sensations.  High incidence sensations according to the different phases of saline abortion (instillation, latency and labor; placental) were recalled by the women.  Sensations recalled by at least 2/3 of the women interviewed were defined as likely sensations (Table 1).  In describing their sensations, the women did not distinguish between the latency and labor phases, suggesting that distinction should not be considered when establishing an expectancy framework for the women.  Also, the usual sequence of fetal passage first and then placental passage second did not occur predictably as described by the medical literature.  These findings are applicable only to women in this series and those who have no concurrent medical problems or procedural complications.  The findings about physical sensation can be utilized in preparing women to expect bodily sensations during saline abortion; nurses desiring to intervene can make use of these findings.  The open-ended method of interviewing the small number of subjects in a predetermined way helped establish important information for nursing exploration and intervention.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/255179"}

Preeclampsia/eclampsia, also known as toxemia of pregnancy, remains one of the great triad of obstetric complications. The outlook for the preeclamptic woman and the fetus has improved as a result of increased knowledge of uteroplacental-fetal physiology and of the physiologic deviations involved in preeclampsia, although the  basic cause of preeclampsia remains unknown. Careful screening of women at risk for preeclampsia along with early detection and treatment can help reduce the toll taken in stillbirths, prematurity, and maternal death. Current concepts of pathophysiology are reviewed as is nursing care during the antepartum and intrapartum periods.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/255184"}
{"pmid": "255181", "title": "Impact of family planning nurse practitioners.", "content": "Impact of family planning nurse practitioners. A survey of family planning clinics shows that over half of responding clinics utilize the services of nurse practitioners and delegate to them considerable responsibility for patient care. Reported benefits from the use of family planning nurse practitioners as primary service providers include improved utilization of physician time, wider range of services, greater patient satisfaction, and increased patient volume. Findings indicate that family planning nurse practitioners have become an integral and important part of the family planning delivery system in the United States. A questionnaire on the utilization of family planning nurse practitioners (FPNP) was conducted among 1900 Dept. of Health, Education, and Welfare family planning grantee agencies.  Of the 757 usable responses, slightly more than 1/2 indicated that they were employing FPNPs.  A higher proportion of Planned Parenthood clinics (75%) versus clinics run by other types of agencies reported doing so.  Clinics using FPNPs were asked which of a specific list of duties they performed.  Considerable medical and training responsibilities seem to be delegated to the FPNPs.  More than 90% of the clinics permitted their FPNPs to perform all routine aspects of contraceptive care except IUD insertion and removal; in 70% of the clinics, the FPNPs performed even these procedures.  There is increasing willingness on the part of clinic directors and physicians to delegate more and more responsibility to the nurse practitioners.  The responding agencies indicated their intent to hire more FPNPs in the future.  Use of the FPNPs frees the physicians for more complicated medical duties and increases satisfaction with the clinics.  The utilization of FPNPs also allowed clinics to provide new services, run more efficiently, and handle a larger volume of patients.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/255181"}

Also, there was negative correlation between test scores and years of experience in areas of the hospital other than the nursery and percent of employment time currently spent in areas of the hospital other than the nursery. Phase II: An educational program in neonatal nursing was then provided to 48 RN's by the authors and to 12 RN's by peer-instructors. At the end of the course of instruction a posttest was given. Thirteen RN's who received no formal instruction served as a control group. On the posttest, both experimental groups performed significantly better than the control group (P less than .01), but the group taught by the authors scored significantly higher than the group taught by peers (P less than .05). Educational programs taught by RN's from the community hospital staff are not as effective in regional educational programs as instruction by course by developers.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/255185"}

A translation inhibitor from wheat germ has been purified more than 400-fold to apparent homogeneity. The inhibitor is a basic protein with a molecular weight of 30 000. This protein effectively blocks protein synthesis in animal cell-free extracts but does not affect protein synthesis in intact cells. Inhibition occurs at a ribosome to inhibitor molar ratio of 100:1, indicating an enzymic mechanism of action. The wheat germ protein inhibits the translation of endogenous mRNA, exogenous mRNA, and poly(uridylic acid) at a step in polypeptide chain elongation and without breakdown of the polysomes. Neither the aminoacylation reaction nor mRNA degradation is affected by the inhibitor. An interesting feature of the inhibition reaction is that it requires, in addition to the wheat germ inhibitor, both ATP and tRNA. The function of these two compounds in the inhibition is presently unknown since neither the hydrolysis of the beta,gamma-pyrophosphate bond of ATP nor a modification of the tRNA can be demonstrated during the reaction.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/255343"}

Constant and variable chromatographic profiles compared with the myeloma protein sequences. In order to test the concepts that aminoacyl-tRNAs in plasmacytomas may on the one hand modulate the protein synthesized or on the other hand reflect the structure of the synthesized protein, the RPC-5 chromatographic profiles of aminoacyl-tRNAs for all 20 amino acids were studied in tRNA prepared from normal mouse liver and 11 plasmacytomas. The patterns of isoaccepting tRNA were compared with the structure of the myeloma protein being synthesized. The elution profiles of aminoacyl-tRNAs for nine of the amino acids were constant, i.e. they were the same for liver and all plasmacytomas. Significant variability was observed in the profiles of the other 11 families of aminoacyl-tRNAs: asparagine, serine and tryptophan, had peaks of isoaccepting tRNAs found in tumors and not in liver; glutamic acid, histidine and lysine, had different patterns of aminoacyl-tRNAs in plasmacytomas which could be distinguished from the elution profile of liver; and isoleucine, proline, threonine and tyrosine, showed pattern variability in only a few of the tumors. Valyl-tRNA uniquely had one isoacceptor present in liver but absent in the tumors. This variability is thought to be associated with different posttranscriptional modification of the tRNAs rather than regulation of individual tRNA genes in response to particular amino acid sequences in secreted myeloma proteins. Similarily, the lack of correlation of isoacceptors with sequence differences makes the modulation of protein fine structure by tRNA availability unlikely.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/255344"}

The following determinents of parenthood are additional factors one must consider when discussing concepts of family planning: 1) the system of relationships among groups of individuals with differing roles and expectations; 2) values toward family size and parenthood; 3) the concept of parenthood as a career.  Successful family planning is often a result of perceiving the goal of planning as either termination of further childbearing or spacing of births; and 4) psychosocial and economic aspects of contraception.

Some are life threatening. Prompt recognition and institution of therapy are essential in those instances. The paraneoplastic syndromes usually are categorized by organ system, target organ involved or, where possible, by mediating factors.

In a 22-month period, strains of Staphylococcus aureus resistant to methicillin and multiple aminoglycosides, (designated MARS) were recovered from 108 inpatients with nosocomial infections at a hospital in the midwestern United States. Sixty-six of these patients were staying in a burn unit, and 42 were on other hospital wards. Among the patients with burns, MARS were recovered from the burn wounds of 64%; 32% of the patients with burns had MARS bacteremia. The patients without burns were age-matched with patients with nosocomial infections caused by antibiotic-susceptible strains of S. aureus. Patients from whom MARS were isolated had a longer mean hospital stay (79.6 days vs. 36.9 days; P less than 0.01), developed infection later (26.5 days vs. 13.5 days after admission; P less than 0.01), and had received antibiotic therapy before infection more often (81% vs. 38% of patients; P less than 0.01) than patients in the comparative population. Types of infection and incidences of death and bacteremia were similar in the two groups.

Studies to determine the epidemiologic behavior of strains of Staphylococcus aureus resistant to methicillin and aminoglycosides (MARS) were conducted over a period of two and one-half years, during which MARS were isolated from 201 patients at a hospital in the midwestern United States. Most cases of infection or colonization with MARS (156 of 201) occurred in patients with burns. In the burn unit, MARS were recovered from the air, from the hair and hands of personnel, and from inanimate objects. Nasal (72%) and rectal (66%) colonization were common among burned patients with infected or colonized burn wounds but occurred in only six of 74 burn unit personnel. When compared with two control periods, the prophylactic use of antistaphylococcal agents in patients with burns increased markedly at the time the outbreak began. Of the 45 patients without burns from whom MARS were isolated, 42 (93%) were surgical patients. MARS were not demonstrated in the air or environment of patients with infected surgical wounds. None of 334 non-burn unit hospital personnel were found to be carriers of MARS. Four phage types (83A, 6/75/85, 29/52/80, and 92) were recovered during the outbreak. A determinant of antibiotic resistance was probably transmitted among strains of S. aureus.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/255553"}

More than half of the 5,560 articles appeared in AJN, and more than half were written by authors in the Mid-Atlantic and North Central areas by the U.S.A. Fifty-eight percent of the articles were written by nurses with at least a masters degree. There were 32 institutions in which at least 20 articles originated during the 15 years studied. The three top-ranking institutions, according to number of publications, were University of Washington, University of California at San Francisco, and the University of California at Los Angeles.

A study was conducted to delineate further the physiological mechanisms underlying the type A behavior pattern's influence on coronary heart disease. It was suggested that while chronically elevated blood pressure is apparently not associated with overall A--B distinctions (at least not for males), acting in a type A fashion may be accompanied by temporary increases in blood pressure. Changes in the speech characteristics of 33 black inner-city women during the A--B interview and subsequent unstructured dialogue were analyzed at one-minute intervals and correlated with concomitant blood pressure measurements. Differences in the speech characteristics of women classified type A as opposed to B were consistent with recent studies of white males (e.g., type As spoke significantly faster than type Bs). Further, within-subject blood pressure elevations were significantly associated with louder/more explosive, longer speech episodes. Additional research is urged which examines biochemical and physiological changes as a function of type A behavior considered as a transient state as well as a relatively enduring trait.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/255915"}

It is also suggested that sex, social class, family relationships, and the media be considered in investigations of the development of children's fears.

Of the nurses observed, 97 percent had excellent regard for proper equipment utilization and 91 percent for maintenance of sterile environment. These high percentages were responsible for pulling the overall average scores to 65 percent, thus partially disguising the acute need for patient assessment (38 percent), psychological support (57 percent), and procedure (62 percent). Scores for subgroups of nurses--associate degree (group 1), diploma (group II), And baccalaureate (group III)--were 72, 69, and 65, respectively. Of particular concern were low scores in the assessment and psychological support categories. Despite increased emphasis on both of these areas in nursing programs in the last decade, AD graduates received scores of 52 and 57 percent while diploma graduates received scores of 38 and 58 percent and baccalaureate graduates received scores of 26 and 55 percent.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/255922"}

A longitudinal study of enrollment data of the Universtiy of Wisconsin--Madison School of Nursing identified several trends in student attrition over a six-year period and formed the basis for the development of a model to predict student attrition. The model proposed to satisfy the need for more precise measures of probable student retention and attrition for counseling and planning purposes in the school's new curriculum. To arrive at a means for predicting student attrition, scores of random samples of continuing and dropout student on achievement, learning style, and psychologial variables obtained during the first three years of the new curriculum were examined using a discriminant analysis technique. A significant differentiation between continuing and dropout students (p less than .000) resulted and allowed a predictive function to be developed. Using a conservative method of identification with student scores transformed by this function, predictions of successful and nonsuccessful students were obtained.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/255920"}

Forty-four children, aged four to seven, who attended two midwestern metropolitan immunization clinics were studied in an attempt to ascertain their responses to a painful stimulus and to observe correlations between their behavioral responses and their subjective ratings of the experience. The children were screened with three tests--two Piaget tests for the preoperational stage development and the Denver Develoment Screening Test for normal development. The children were observed for verbal, vocal, facial, and motor behavior during diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus or diphtheria-tetanus injections. The children then rated the extent of pain during the injection by responding to two instruments, a modification of Eland's Projective Tool and Hester's Poker Chip Tool. Each behavior category was correlated with the pain rating. Significant positive correlations were found for verbal and vocal behaviors while significant negative correlations were found for facial and motor behaviors.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/255924"}

The current state of knowledge in regard to nutritional requirements for pregnant and lactating women and for women who are taking oral contraceptives is reviewed.  During pregnancy caloric intake should be moderately increased, and the consumption of 30-60 mg of iron and 800-1200 mg of calcium is recommended. Phosphorus intake should also be increased, but this increase should be balanced by a corresponding increase in calcium intake.  Consumption of vitamins A and D should be increased but excessive increases should be avoided.  Vitamin E should be slightly increased.  The desirability of increasing vitamin K is till a matter of dispute.  Pregnant women have a slightly increased need for most water soluble vitamins.  Research has adequately demonstrated the need to increase folic acid and B6 consumption.  There is some evidence that iodine, chromium, and zinc deficiencies may be teratogenic.  Some care should be taken not to overconsume sodium, but the need for stringest restriction is unwarranted.  Heavy consumption of alcohol and caffeine should definitely be discouraged during pregnancy. Certain problems experienced by pregnant women, such as nausea, may be managed through nutritional modification.  The increased nutritional needs for lactating women can, in most cases, be met by increasing milk consumption by 3-3 1/2 cup/day and by consuming a well balanced diet.  The content of maternal milk may to some extent be altered by the consumption patterns of the mothers.  Ingestion of certain drugs and chemicals may also alter maternal milk.  The use of oral contraceptives apparently affects metabolism, but the consequences of these effects are largely unknown.  Oral contraceptive usage generally increases the serum levels of triglycerides, iron, copper, and vitamin A and reduces levels of some B vitamins of vitamin C and of zinc and albumin.  These effects vary from woman to woman and at the present time there is no agreement on the need for dietary supplementation.  The effects of a variety of drugs on lactating women and the effects of oral contraceptive usage on nutritional status are presented in tabular form.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256028"}

Gastric tissue histamine concentration was determined, 6 and 16 hours after pylorus ligation in vagus intact and vagotomized albino rats and the results were compared with those of respective control animals, sacrificed, 6 and 16 hours after ether anaesthesia alone. The gastric tissue histamine concentration of rats subjected to none of the experimental situations was also determined and taken into comparison. The results show that the stress of pylorus ligation reduced the gastric tissue histamine concentration, the reduction being more with increased duration of stress. On the other hand, subdiaphragmatic vagtomy preserved the histamine concentration of gastric tissue irrespective of the duration to which the animals were exposed following pylorus ligation. It appears that increase in vagal discharges during stress leads to increased liberation of histamine from the gastric wall, thereby, reducing the gastric tissue histamine concentration; the reduction being proportional to the duration of stress and increase in vagal discharges, whereas, in the absence of vagal impulses following subdiaphragmatic vagotomy, the gastric tissue histamine concentration is preserved in spite of the stress to which the animals were exposed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256165"}

The effects of continuous intravenous infusions (6 h) of ammonium chloride (5.6; 11.2; and 16.8 mumol.kg-1.min) on plasma glucose and immunoreactive insulin (I.R.I.) levels were studied in three adult sheep. Infusions of 5.6 and 11.2 mumol.kg-1.min elevated ammonia levels in circulating blood from 100 to 150 and 300 microgram.100 ml-1, respectively, but showed no appreciable effect on plasma glucose and I.R.I. concentrations. Infusion of 16.8 mumol.kg-1.min-1 resulted in a blood ammonia concentration of about 400 microgram.100 ml-1 after six hours of infusion. Blood ammonia returned to normal 1 to 2 hours after the end of infusion. Plasma glucose concentration tended to increase slightly from 65 to 75 mg . 100 ml-1 when 16.8 mumol of NH4Cl were infused kg-1.min-1 and remained at the elevated level at least for two additional hours when ammonia infusions were stopped. Plasma I.R.I. tended to decrease from 48 to 38 microunits . ml-1 during the time of the NH4Cl infusion and increased continually to 82 microunits . ml-1 when NH4Cl infusions were stopped. It is concluded from the time courses of plasma glucose and plasma I.R.I. that the effect of ammonia infusion of these parameters cannot entirely be explained by a regulatory release of adrenaline.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256167"}

Intravenous infusions of ammonium chloride (62.3 mumol.kg-1.min-1) for 30 min caused a significant increase in blood glucose, lactate, pyruvate and free fatty acid (FFA) levels. A similar effect was also observed during infusion of adrenaline. Propanolol--a beta-receptor blocking agent--completely prevented the rise of blood pyruvate and lactate after adrenaline when 8.3 microgram.kg-1.min-1 of propranolol were infused, but not after NH4Cl administration. Lipolytic actions of adrenaline were completely prevented but that of NH4Cl was only significantly diminished by blockade of beta-receptors with propranolol.

The cure rate of infections in cancer patients is adversely affected by neutropenia (less than 1,000/mm3). In particular, patients with severe neutropenia (less than 100/mm3) have shown a poor response to antibiotics. To overcome the adverse effects of neutropenia, tobramycin was given by continuous infusion and combined with intermittent carbenicillin. Tobramycin was given to a total daily dose of 300 mg/m2 and carbenicillin was given at a dose of 5 gm every four hours. There were 125 infectious episodes in 116 cancer patients receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy. The overall cure rate was 70%. Pneumonia was the most common infection and 61% of 59 episodes were cured. Gram-negative bacilli were the most common causative organisms and 69% of these infections were cured. The most common pathogen was Klebsiella pneumoniae and this, together with Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, accounted for 74% of all gram-negative bacillary infections. Response was not influenced by the initial neutrophil count, with a 62% cure rate for 39 episodes associated with severe neutropenia. However, failure of the neutrophil count to increase during therapy adversely affected response. Azotemia was the major side effect recognized, and it occurred in 11% of episodes. Major azotemia (serum creatinine greater than 2.5 mg/dl or BUN greater than 50 mg/dl) occurred in only 2%. Azotemia was not related to duration of therapy or serum tobramycin concentration. This antibiotic regimen showed both therapeutic efficacy and acceptable renal toxicity for these patients.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256433"}

A convenient isolation procedure with high yield for the pure monomeric unit from lysozyme digest of the accumulated polymer is described. 2. It is shown that the released peptidoglycan possesses the linear uncross-linked structure made of repeating disaccharide-pentapeptide unit [GlcNAc-MurNac-Ala-D-Glyn(meso-DAP-D-Ala-D-Ala)] which was isolated by stepwise gel filtration and fractionation of the digestion mixture in 10-mg quantities. Evidence that the minor digestion product of accumulated peptidoglycan possesses the glycan-linked dimer structure is given. Under conditions of beta-elimination, the monomeric unit yielded a lactylpentapeptide which was isolated in pure form by gel filtration. 3. The monomer unit originating from the cultures to which L-[U-14C]glutamic acid was added simultaneously with penicillin incorporated the label exclusively in the peptide chain, whereas that labeled from E11-14C]acetate as the precursor contained radioactivity in both the peptide chain (53%) and N-acetylamino groups (47%) of the glycan portion.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256515"}

This study was designed to explore the possible relationship between chloroplast membrane stacking or particle aggregation in stacked membrane regions (or both) and excitation energy distribution between photosystems I and II. To this end we have quantitatively examined the effects of different concentrations of univalent ions on the above-mentioned parameters, using a combination of freeze-fracture and thin-section electron microscopy for structural analysis and chlorophyll fluorescence measurements to assay energy-transfer processes. Membrane stacking was found to saturate at about 150mM-NaCl. Maximal EFs-face particle density and chlorophyll fluorescence occurred at about 100mM-NaCl, although only 50% of the potential EFs-face particles were located in stacked membrane regions at this salt concentration. Centrifugation (30,000 g, 1 h) could significantly increase the amount of stacked membranes at salt concentrations between 20- and 60-mM-NaCl; in contrast, centrifugation had little effect on cation-regulation of chlorophyll fluorescence properties. These and other findings suggest that neither chloroplast membrane stacking nor the aggregation of EF-face particles into stacked regions is directly related to the mechanism of excitation energy distribution between the two photosystems (as measured by chlorophyll fluorescence changes) although both structural and functional changes may be mediated by the same membrane component. It is proposed that the salt-induced stacking of chloroplast membranes and the concomitant aggregation of EF-face particles is mediated by the screening of negative surface charges on the membrane pigment-protein subunits, by the establishment of specific interactions between light-harvesting pigment-protein complexes and by 'entropic ordering' forces.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256527"}

Photoselection experiments with immobilized photosystem I particles have been done to determine the mutual orientation of pigments in the reaction centre. When these particles are excited and interrogated with linearly polarized light, the flash-induced transient absorption changes (mainly from the chlorophyll a dimer) reveal linear dichroism, which yields information on the mutual orientation between the excited and the interrogated transition moments. The interpretation of the data, however, is ambiguous, (1) for reasons of principles inherent in the photoselection technique when applied to complex systems and (2) because of incomplete knowledge about the relative contribution of x- and of y-polarized transitions of chlorophyll a to absorption or to absorption changes at a given wavelength. We find it impossible to attribute any particular structure to the photooxidizable dimer based on photoselection data alone. Instead we present a field of possible structures, imposing constraints on proposed models for the dimer structure.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256526"}

A simple model of the photosynthetic unit has been constructed and used for simulated Förster-type energy migration, fluorescence and intersystem crossing, in order to gain insight into the conditions that influence both the form and the lifetime of the fluorescence decay in vivo. The model consists of a two-dimensional random lattice with one central trap. The simulation was done by means of repetitive Monte Carlo-type computations. The results obtained show that the form of the decay curve changes from exponential to non-exponential, as the chlorophyll concentration (molecules/nm2) is increased. The fluorescence lifetimes (tau 1/e) were also found to decrease substantially with only slight increases inc concentration. At a concentration comparable to that of chlorophyll in the chloroplast, both the form of the fluorescence decay and the lifetime are in fair agreement with experiment in vivo. The reasons for non-exponentially of the decay as well as the properties of energy migration are discussed. Preliminary work involving the dependence of trapping rate on donor concentration is also presented.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256529"}

Measurements of the linear dichroism and of the polarization of the fluorescence with oriented chloroplasts have revealed a definite orientation of the pigment molecules with respect to the membrane plane. The Qy transition moments of the chlorophyll a molecules are more closely inclined with respect to this plane for the forms absorbing at longer wavelengths than for those absorbing at shorter wavelengths. The fluorescence depolarization by energy transfer, determined with magnetically-oriented chloroplasts, indicates that the degree of local order increases with wavelength for the different (absorption wavelength) forms of chlorophyll a in vivo. Laser pulses of either picosecond or microsecond duration have been used to probe the emission spectrum, lifetime and quantum yield of fluorescence of chloroplasts at various temperatures. With single picosecond pulses, singlet-singlet annihilations occur within the light-harvesting chlorophyll molecules. In the case of microsecond pulses, triplet excitions act as efficient quenchers of the singlets. By monitoring both the yield of carotenoid triplets and of the fluorescence during and after a laser flash, one can show that the carotenoid triplets account for part of but not all the fluorescence quenching.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256531"}

A theoretical analysis of bimolecular annihilation in finite domains is presented. A Pauli master equation is formulated for the case of varying incident delta function excitation sources. Expressions for the quantum fluorescence yield and its time dependence are derived. The relationship between the fluorescence yield and the number of hits per domain depends on two parameters: the rate constant of bimolecular exciton annihilation and the dimension of the domain in which this annihilation occurs. Recent experimental results imply that the exciton diffusion constant (D) is large (D approximately to greater than 10(-3) cm2 S-1) and that the photosystem II domains may contain as many as five photosynthetic units. An analysis of the time decay of the fluorescence indicates that, for a few hits per domain, the decay may be considered as exponential but for many hits it becomes non-exponential. Thus the fluorescence decay depends on the intensity of the excitation source and/or on the dimension of the domains. Conditions which change the effective size of the domain may change the shape of the fluorescence decay. Some biological consequences and experimental applications of this theory are presented.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256530"}

Within this context we report and discuss the implication of three kinds of data on spinach chloroplast LHCP. First, an analysis of the spectroscopic dependence of absorption, polarization and circular dichroism (reported recently by R.L.V.) suggests a model affording the possibility of easy chlorophyll a intercomplex transfer with chlorophyll b groups acting as local antitraps. Second, the ratio of LHCP emission and absorption probabilities obeys the Stepanov relation over a relatively wide range, an observation which suggests rapid Chl b-Chl a excitation equilibration. Finally, an LHCP absolute fluorescence yield as great as 10% has been measured, which provides a possible upper limit for the yield of the antenna fluorescence.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256528"}

The fluorescence kinetics of chlorophyll and the phycobilins of the red alga, Porphyridium cruentum, are governed by time-dependent kinetics, but the observed time dependence of the chlorophyll a fluorescence decay from dark-adapted Chlorella pyrenoidosa and spinach sub-chloroplast fractions is still open to conjecture. In contrast to the green plants containing only chlorophyll and carotenoids, Porphyridium shows distinct emission bands for each the pigments in the transfer sequence. The rate of energy transfer in vivo has the empirical form: dS/dt = -1/2S At-1/2, where S is the excited-state population of the donor pigment and A is the overall rate of energy transfer to the acceptor pigment. The kinetic analysis can describe closely the observed fluorescence risetimes and lifetimes of the photosynthetic pigments of Porphyridium. The extremely rapid rates of energy transfer, determined by this treatment, imply that exciton migration within each pigment bed of the phycobilisome is less extensive than in the chlorophyll-antenna systems. Changes in the fluorescence yield and decay kinetics of chlorophyll a and allophycocyanin in vivo can be induced at high excitation intensities by exciton-exciton annihilation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256533"}

With isolated chloroplasts variations in the degree of energy transfer between light-harvesting chlorophyll-protein complexes can be induced by changing the cation content of the suspending medium. The changes can be observed by measuring chlorophyll-fluorescence yields and lifetimes and are probably brought about by conformatial changes in the thylakoid membrane. Detailed studies of the properties of cation-induced changes in chlorophyll fluorescence indicated that the alterations in pigment organization are due to variations in the density of positive charges immediately adjacent to the surface of the thylakoid membrane, being in qualitative agreement with predictions based on the Gouy-Chapman theory of diffuse double layers.

It is shown that the equations for the yields of fluorescence from the different parts of the photochemical apparatus of the tripartite model transform into the simple equations of the bipartite formulation when the probability for energy transfer from the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b complex to photosystem II is unity. The nature of the 695 and 735 nm fluorescence bands which appear in the emission spectrum of chloroplasts at low temperature is examined. It is proposed that these bands are due to fluorescence from energy-trapping centres which form in the antenna chlorophyll of photosystem II and photosystem I on cooling to low temperature. Even though these fluorescence emissions can be regarded as low temperature artifacts since they are not present at physiological temperatures, they nevertheless are proportional to the excitation energy in the two photosystems and can be used to monitor energy distribution in the photochemical apparatus. However, the question of their artifactual nature is crucial to the interpretation of fluorescence-lifetime measurements at low temperature.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256532"}

There are several reasons for suspecting that there is a specific interaction between chlorophyll and galactolipids in the chloroplast. The model system described is intended to detect association of chlorophyll with polar lipids and other surfactants at a hydrocarbon-water interface. It consists of chlorophyll and other lipids or surfactants absorbed to the surface of polyethylene particles, which have been swelled with undecane to allow the lipophilic parts of these molecules to be anchored firmly in the hydrocarbon substrate. The absorption spectrum of adsorbed chlorophyll is usually modified by the presence of surfactant, and usually in the direction of decreased order of aggregation. Spectra in the presence of glycolipids in particular seem peculiar to the surfactant. The particles are strongly fluorescent, at room temperature as well as at 77K, and emission bands from aggregated chlorophyll species are observed along with fluorescence of monomeric chlorophyll.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256537"}

By special treatment and additions it was ascertained that the donor complex (S-states, see below) was in the reduced state. Three models of pigment systems have been considered: separate units; units with a boundary limiting energy transfer; and the matrix or pigment bed model, which was found to describe the experimental data. The following supplementary assumptions were made: ktf greater than kt greater than k't greater than 0. The rate constant ktf is that for electronic excitation transfer from a chlorophyll a molecule (or reaction-centre chlorophyll) to the surrounding chlorophyll molecules; kt and k't are rate constants for trapping at the reaction centres in the state PQ and PQ-, respectively. From this model and additional data such as fluorescence yield in vivo and in vitro, kt was estimated to be 4 X 10(11) S-1 and k't = 7.1 X 10(10) S-1; ktf greater than 10(12) S-1.

Rodents have been used by many investigators for studies of the effects that maternal diabetes during pregnancy may have on developing fetuses. In Wistar rats, the induction of mild chronic diabetes at the onset of pregnancy by alloxan or streptozotocin results in abnormalities of the nervous system and the heart, recognized in embryos at 11--13 days' gestation. Thus, early organogenesis is evidently affected in these embryos. With a method which enables rat embryos to be cultured in vitro in serum for the period of their early organogenesis, the growth and differentiation of embryos from normal and from diabetic rats can be observed in some detail. It is also possible to compare the effects of normal and of diabetic maternal serum on their development. The results reported here show that embryos from diabetic animals are more likely to be retarded or abnormal than those from non-diabetic animals when cultured in identical serum. The development of both types of embryo is more successful in diabetic than in non-diabetic serum, however, possibly because of the higher glucose content of diabetic serum. Cultures of fetal organs may also be used as test systems for the effects of diabetic maternal serum. Sacral vertebrae, some of which fail to ossify in fetuses from daibetic rats, are now being grown in media containing diabetic serum.

Brown algae contain the photosystem 1 reaction-centre complex, a P700-chlorophyll a-protein which has similar spectroscopic and chemical properties to those of higher plants. This complex represents about 10--20% of the total chlorophyll in all species; the Acrocarpia paniculata complex has a chlorophyll/P700 ratio of 38. Two main light-harvesting complexes have also been isolated, which have properties unique to brown algae. The heavier of these, an orange fraction, is a fucoxanthin-chlorophyll a/c-protein; this complex contains most of the fucoxanthin and has only chlorophyll c2. The other, a green fraction, is a chlorophyll a/c-protein enriched in violaxanthin. Neither of these complexes possesses detectable photosystem 1 or photosystem 2 activities. Both of these complexes efficiently transfer light energy to chlorophyll a, indicating that the molecular arrangement of their pigments is similar to that in vivo. Differential extraction of thylakoid membranes indicates that the P700-chlorophyll a-protein is the complex most firmly embedded in the membrane, but the fucoxanthin-chlorophyll a/c-protein is the least firmly bound.

The excess of anomalies associated with maternal diabetes occurs in many organ systems. Anomalies are no more frequent in the offspring of diabetic fathers and pre-diabetic mothers than among those of non-diabetics, suggesting that non-genetic factors are the important determinants. Anomalies are most frequent in the offspring of mothers who have developed diabetes at an early age, many of whom have diabetes of long duration, are insulin-treated, and may have vascular complications.

The glucose/oxygen quotients in different mammalian fetuses vary from about 0.5 to 0.8. Glucose transport across the placenta has been altered by fetal hyperinsulinaemia and by maternal fasting. Fetal hypoglycaemia is common to both conditions. However, umbilical glucose uptake increases with fetal hyperinsulinaemia and decreases with maternal fasting. During fasting, concomitant with a decrease in fetal glucose supply, there is an increase in amino acid catabolism. A high rate of placental production of both ammonia and lactate has been demonstrated in several mammalian species. Umbilical lactate uptake is sufficient to account for about 25% of the oxygen consumption in the ovine fetus. Ammonia production by the sheep placenta is reflected in increased ammonia concentrations in both the maternal and fetal circulations. In the ovine fetus, transport of umbilical amino acid has exceeded that required for new tissue growth, supporting the observations of a high urea production rate during fetal life. Neutral and basic amino acids represent the bulk of the amino acids transported across the placenta. In contrast there is a net uptake of glutamate from the fetal circulation into the placenta and very little umbilical uptake of aspartic acid.

Neonatal glucose assimilation during the first two hours of life correlated strongly with several functions of maternal carbohydrate tolerance. This was associated with higher plasma insulin concentrations at birth, and a marked tendency to hypoglycaemia in the infants of untreated chemical diabetic women. Impaired mobilization of triglyceride stores was also observed during the two hours after birth in the infants of diabetic women.

A preliminary investigation was carried out to determine how conditional lethal mutants affected in particular aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases may be used to study the role of tRNA charging levels in protein synthesis. The relationship between rate of protein synthesis and level of histidyl-tRNA in wild-type cultured Chinese hamster ovary cells was determined using the analogue histidinol to inhibit histidyl-tRNA synthetase activity. This response was compared with that obtained using a mutant strain with a defective histidyl-tRNA synthetase that phenotypically shows decreased rates of protein synthesis at reduced concentrations of histidine in the growth medium. The approach used was based on measuring the histidyl-tRNA levels in live cells. The percentage charging was estimated by comparing [14C]histidine incorporated into alkali-labile material in paired samples, one of which was treated with cycloheximide, five minutes before terminating during the incubation, to produce maximal aminoacylation. Wild-type cells under histidinol inhibition exhibited a sensitive, sigmoidal relationship between the level of histidyl-tRNA and the rate of protein synthesis. A decrease in the relative percentage of acylated tRNA (His) from 46% to 35% elicited a large reduction in the rate of protein synthesis from 90% to 30% relative to untreated cells. An unpredicted result was that the relationship between protein synthesis and histidyl-tRNA in the mutant was essentially linear. High acylation values for tRNA (His) were associated with rates of protein synthesis that were not nearly as high as in wild-type cells. These findings suggest that the charging charging levels of tRNA (His) isoacceptors could play a regulatory role in determining the rate of protein synthesis under conditions of histidine starvation in normal cells.

Nursing and sociology: the development of a symbiotic relationship. The paper has three aims: to illustrate ways in which sociology may help nurses to achieve their primary objective: good patient care; to show how nursing can contribute to sociology; and to indicate some conditions for a healthy relationship between the two activities. After a brief discussion of the nature of sociology, intended for non-sociologists, four examples of ways in which sociology may be relevant to nursing are discussed: (i) Implications for nursing of changing patterns of disease, dependency and death; (ii) Social and cultural variations in perceptions of, and responses to, pain and disease; (iii) Organizational analyses, with particular reference to the importance of nurse-patient communication; (iv) Sociological studies of inter-personal relationships, illustrated by a study of student nurse training. Nursing is described as the major caring profession; as such it has inherent interest for sociologists interested in health care. However, its sociological interest is enhanced by the fact that it is permeated by paradoxes. Reference is also made to current debate on the most appropriate model for health care: the traditional medical model places relatively greater emphasis on cure than does nursing, with its relatively greater involvement with care. It is suggested that current patterns of disease and dependency increase the importance of the care model, and that nursing could play a crucial role in such a shift of emphasis. Having shown that sociology can make positive contributions to nursing, attention is drawn to certain dangers. Nursing should thus make sure that the sociology which it welcomes into its domain is academically sound, and not ideology in disguise. It is also suggested that nursing education should encourage more critical thinking, to enliven nurses' appreciation of what sociology has to offer, and to improve their ability to evaluate the quality of health care.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256570"}

Mothers breast feeding 2 weeks after delivery were studied. One group (106 mothers) were advised to 'eat for two' during lactation to sustain their milk supply. They were compared at 3 months with a control group of 152 mothers. At 3 months only half as many advised group mothers had weaned their babies due to insufficient milk as control mothers. The numbers weaning for other reasons were similar in both groups. More breast feeding mothers reported an increased appetite during lactation than did mothers who had changed to artificial feeding. Smokers were more likely to have given up breast feeding between 2 weeks and 3 months than non-smokers but smoking was not associated with any particular weaning reason. Women taking a contraceptive pill during lactation more often experienced a diminution of milk supply than non-pill-takers. Sustained lactation benefits the mother since those who were still breast feeding were less likely to suffer from depression or fatigue at 3 months, and were more likely to  have lost weight. The early introduction of solids was less frequent among infants being breast fed at 3 months.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256571"}

The influences of major nursing reports as well as the consequences of the growth of professionalism in nursing and the potential outcome of the spread of political consciousness among nurses are also highlighted. Nurses are admonished to come to terms with the 'real' diseases of today; those resulting from affluence and senescence. Although conceding that nurses have unique and professional roles, a plea is made for the importance of good team work in health care. The paper ends with the recognition that by building up the body of knowledge of nursing, not only will the planning of nursing care be enhanced but also the ability to change as the needs of society change.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256573"}
{"pmid": "256572", "title": "The role of the nurse in support of breast feeding.", "content": "The role of the nurse in support of breast feeding. The nurse can provide information about, and support of, breast feeding. The prenatal nurse can inform the mother of the advantages of breast feeding to herself and her baby. The labour and delivery nurse can aid the mother in her first contact with the baby and reassure the mother who has a Caesarean birth, or a premature or sick infant, that she too can nurse. The postpartum nurse can help breast feeding to continue by providing frequent maternal-infant contact during the mother's hospital stay. The nursery nurse supports breast feeding by refraining from giving the baby other fluids. The paediatric nurse continues the helping pattern by reinforcing the statements and actions of others which will further impress the mother with the appropriateness of her infant feeding method. Mothers need to be informed about infant feeding options in order to make a knowledgeable choice based on awareness of alternatives. The nurse's role in support of breast feeding varies with the time and place where patient care is provided. In each setting, however, the nurse plays a significant role in helping the mother to begin breast feeding and to enjoy it, at the same time providing her infant with optimum nutrition for his early growth and development.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256572"}

When analysed these data reveal that in all wards there is a strong relationship between the nursing hours available and the various components of the nursing care provided. Indeed the linear relationship is so strong in some cases that it appears that these wards are a long way short of the staffing levels which produced the 'saturation' effect described by several American authors. The analysis of the interactions reveals, as one would suspect, that a disproportionate number of patients account for a large proportion of the interactions, but two further analyses will, it is hoped, shed a little more light on this aspect of the ward situation. The data are being subject to further examination to ascertain whether extra nursing staff leads to more or longer interactions and a longer term investigation is under way which is focused on patients with comparable diagnoses in different hospitals.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256574"}

{"pmid": "256575", "title": "Is the nursing profession really research-based?", "content": "Is the nursing profession really research-based? Modern nursing has its origins in the pioneering research of Florence Nightingale but a research approach to nursing problems was never transmitted as part of the traditions of the Nightingale pattern of nurse training. Although nurses in North America established nursing education programmes in centres of higher education as long ago as 1899, British nurses did not utilize these facilities until the 1950s. This militated against the proper preparation of British nurses for research and the innovation of nursing research activities was therefore drastically delayed in the United Kingdom. Such research as there was tended to focus on nurses rather than nursing. The Royal College of Nursing of the United Kingdom, together with the Department of Health and Social Security, London, sponsored a number of nursing care research projects in the late 1960s. This was followed, in the 1970s, by an upsurge of research interest and research activity among British nurses. But it is still very difficult to demonstrate any direct benefits from nursing research interest or activity on patient care. There are also problems associated with the lack of experimental and replicated studies, the death or research-minded nurses and the apparent lack of interest in implementing nursing research findings. This places a great responsibility on the teachers of nurses. Hope is on the horizon. This is fostered by recent syllabuses and guides produced by British statutory bodies responsible for basic and postbasic nursing research. In conclusion, the author argues that nursing research activity should not be permitted to become an end in itself. The search for a research base for nursing should be motivated primarily by a desire to achieve better nursing practice.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256575"}

The amino acid incorporating activity of cell-free systems with polysomes or mitochondria from newborn brain exceeds that of adult controls significantly in contrast to a smaller incorporating rate of labelled amino acids into synaptosomal protein. Addition of polysomes isolated from newborn brain increases the amino acid incorporation by cell-free systems with adult brain tRNA and enzymes, whereas the polysomes from adult brain decrease the incorporating activity of newborn brain systems. The loading capacity of newborn brain tRNA exceeds that of the adult controls and the velocities of its aminoacylation are four times faster. Uncharged as well as precharged newborn brain tRNA increases the amino acid incorporating activity of tRNA-dependent cell-free systems with adult brain polysomes and enzymes. In contrast to polysomes and tRNA, the newborn brain enzymes involved in protein synthesis seem to be less active in cell-free amino acid incorporation than the enzyme fractions from adult brain. These data indicate that the different protein synthesizing activity in developing and adult mouse brain is the result not only of higher amino acid incorporating activities of the newborn polysomes, but also of a stimulated acceptance and transfer function of the newborn brain tRNA.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256610"}

Tubulo-alveolar glands were present in all three species around large intrahepatic ducts and in large portal tracts there were zones of ductules (areas with many small bile ducts), surrounded by small vessels with no apparent relation to hepatocytes. Both these features were present in the guinea pig and tubulo-alveolar glands were present in the penguin liver. The biliary epithelium of the rat was comparatively simple but that of the rabbit appeared to be highly specialized. An estimation of the complexity of the biliary tree was obtained in the mammals by comparing the circumference of small portal venous branches with the circumference of the accompanying bile ducts, and obtaining a ratio. Man, dog, and cat had fewer and smaller bile ducts than the other species.

Potassium excretion declined with food intake at oestrus but subsequently failed to recover to pre-oestrous levels dispite full recovery of dietary intake. 3. Curiously, water intake also recovered completely whereas urinary and faecal water retention continued; faecal loss actually exceeded renal excretion on these liberal water intakes. 4. Changes in salivary, urinary and faecal Na/K indicated an aldosterone peak neither during the luteal phase nor at oestrus but three days later. The data raise questions concerning the regulation of water and electrolyte balance within the normal cycle. They also provide a baseline for the investigation of renal effects of gonadal steroids. Possible roles for aldosterone, ADH and progesterone in maintaining fluid and electrolyte balance are discussed, emphasising problems confronting species which have evolved with heavy obligatory potassium excretion but undependable supplies of sodium and water.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256630"}
{"pmid": "256631", "title": "Parotid salivary flow and composition during infusion of acetylcholine and atropine into the carotid artery of conscious sodium-replete sheep.", "content": "Parotid salivary flow and composition during infusion of acetylcholine and atropine into the carotid artery of conscious sodium-replete sheep. The rate of salivary flow and the concentrations of the major electrolytes in parotid saliva and arterial plasma of conscious sodium-replete sheep were measured during resting salivary secretion and when salivary flow was either increased by intracarotid infusion of acetylcholine at 10-30 nmol. min-1 for 20 min or reduced by intracarotid infusion of atropine at 14 nmol. min-1 for 50 min. During both treatments salivary phosphate concentration was always negatively correlated with salivary flow and salivary bicarbonate concentration was always positively correlated with flow. The chloride concentration of the saliva during the acetylcholine infusion experiments was positively correlated with salivary flow whereas when atropine was infused the chloride concentration was negatively correlated with flow. Acetylcholine infusion caused the potassium concentration of the saliva to increase significantly resulting in a marked increase in the total rate of loss of potassium in the saliva. The salivary potassium concentration fell significantly at the onset of the atropine infusion and then rose progressively so that the potassium concentration was elevated by the end of the infusion. In both treatments the concentrations of sodium and hydrion were negatively correlated with salivary flow rate. The maximum sodium concentration which occurred in the low-flow saliva of the atropine infusion was substantially higher than the concentration that would be achieved by equilibrium with the aqueous phase of arterial plasma. It was concluded that the negative correlation between salivary flow and sodium concentration occurred because the reabsorption of sodium from the saliva by the excurrent duct system was minimal in sodium-replete sheep which would have low levels of mineralocorticoids in the circulation. The inconsistency between this  study and previous reports presumably reflects differences in the criteria used to define the sodium status of the animals.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256631"}

The response to benzylpenicillin of 2 strains of Staphylococcus aureus was investigated in vitro using 3 techniques in parallel: continuous turbidimetric monitoring, continuous microscopic monitoring, and thin-section electron microscopy. Cultures of staphylococci were exposed to several concentrations of penicillin for various intervals of time before terminating the antibiotic activity with penicillinase. Bacterial lysis by penicillin was concentration-dependent and showed an optimal dosage effect which was very marked for one of the strains. The growth and division of cells continued for up to 1 h in the presence of penicillin. A variety of morphological responses was observed at each penicillin concentration. These changes ranged from complete bacterial lysis to apparently normal cells, and included several different types of aberrant morphological forms. On addition of penicillinase to cultures exposed to penicillin, there was a time interval before survivors began to divide. This period was increased by raising the concentration of penicillin or by increasing the period of exposure to penicillin. Bacteria resuming growth after surviving penicillin action exhibited markedly aberrant septation. Most of the survivors were found to originate from clumps of cocci rather than from individual cells or small groups.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256748"}

The value of animal models in biomedical research is firmly established, and many basic principles of human psychology have been explicated as the result of comparative studies. There is pressing need for non-human models in the behavioural sciences as represented by psychiatry, psychology and ethology; and such models should be constructed, provided their validity can be assured. Valid models cannot be based exclusively on similarity in the formal properties of behaviour. Commonality of descriptive terms as applied to different species does not guarantee identity of the concepts to which the terms apply. Model builders must evaluate interspecific similarities and differences in the causes, mediating mechanisms and functional outcomes of behaviour. The validity of interspecific generalization can never exceed the reliability of intraspecific analysis; and the latter is an indispensable antecedent of the former. Existing and potential models for homosexuality and other psychosexual characteristics of human beings are evaluated within the perspective provided by the foregoing generalizations.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256826"}

People with severe gender identity problems have always existed. Some hope to find a solution to their deep intrapersonal conflicts in a so-called sex transformation. The term 'transsexual' was coined by Cauldwell in 1949 and since then an unknown number of people all over the world, probably more biological men than women, have undergone a hormonal and surgical sex-transformation procedure. In this chapter we discuss the impossibility of real sex change from man to woman and vice versa. We briefly touch on two classical cases of sex transformation with some connection with Denmark: the Lili Elbe case of 1930 and the famous Chris Jorgensen case from the early fifties. We discuss the incidence of transsexuality and follow-up studies of patients, and give preliminary results from a Danish study of 110 people (81 men and 29 women) who during the past 25 years have applied for a sex-change operation. Of these, 56 individuals (42 men and 14 women) have had such operations.

Male homosexuality has complex determinants: biological, psychological, social, cultural and situational factors may be relevant, either inhibiting hetereosexuality or leading towards homosexuality. Environmental factors seem paramount, particularly significant early relationships, usually within the family. Especially implicated are the personalities and interaction of the parents, recent interest being especially in the father's role. Also relevant is the family as a complex social system and the modes of communication within it, both verbal and non-verbal. Social research and sociopolitical pressures have helped to liberalize attitudes to homosexually 'deviant' behaviour but have not added significantly to its understanding. Many factors are involved in determining whether homosexual men seek therapy and reach a particular therapist. These factors relate to the patient's and therapist's personalities; to different therapeutic philosophies and therapeutic goals; and to the formal and informal referral networks in society.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256827"}

This paper considers evidence from experiments in which exogenous androgens are given to people with impaired sexual response. Results from a study in which testosterone was given to unresponsive women are reported, together with the preliminary results of giving androstenedione to sexually unresponsive women taking oral contraceptives and giving testosterone undecanoate to hypogonadal males. In the first study, when testosterone was combined with counselling, significant effects were produced by the addition of testosterone. In the androstenedione study, where no counselling was given, beneficial effects of the androgen have been unusual. Examples of the evaluation of androgen replacement in hypogonodal males are also presented. Finally, some methodological problems of evaluating the effects of exogenous hormone in human sexual behaviour are briefly discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256830"}

The chain of events occurring during sexual development involves successive steps: genetic sex, gonadal sex and body sex. The latter comprises the genital tract, secondary sex characters and neural structures mediating sexual interest and appetite. Body sex obeys a hormonal control. In the absence of any hormone it develops in conformity with the homozygous sex type--feminine in mammals, masculine in birds, newts and one lizard studied so far. Similar differences have been observed for sex behaviour in some mammals and birds. It has been suggested that the sex of the gonads is determined by the presence (or absence) of the histocompatibility antigen produced by the sex chromosome of the heterozygous sex (Y or W). However, in newt or Xenopus graft chimaeras as well as in bovine freemartins, testicular dominance over presumptive ovaries is obvious whatever the mode of chromosomal control of sex. A unifying concept for sex differentiation in all vertebrates, accounting for the long series of recognized data, is still difficult to delineate.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256834"}

An interdisciplinary integrative approach must be utilized in the study of psychosexual differentiation. The approach must capitalize on data derived from non-human models, from experiments of nature, and from experiments of nurture. Studies from non-human primates strongly suggest the influence of prenatal sex hormone levels on postnatal sexually dimorphic behaviours. Starting from this basis we have studied sixty young adult men whose mothers received, during pregnancy, diethylstilboestrol, diethylstilboestrol and natural progesterone, natural progesterone, or synthetic progesterone. They have been compared with matched controls not exposed in utero to exogenous hormones. Studies of socialization patterns must document the differential developmental experiences, if any, of children with atypical and typical sex-typed behaviours. To this end, we are studying 60 boys whose behaviour before puberty was decidedly feminine, and their parents, and contrasting them with masculine boys and their parents. We are also studying 50 girls whose behaviour before puberty was 'masculine', and contrasting them with 'feminine' girls. Additionally, we are studying the sexually dimorphic behaviour of children of sexually atypical parents. The parents have either undergone sex-change surgery (male-to-female or female-to-male) or are homosexual. Data from the three studies are presented.

Naturally occurring endocrine syndromes and the offspring from steroid-treated pregnancies are the major sources of evidence for a role of prenatal hormones in psychosexual development in man. Effects of prenatal androgens have been established for the sex-dimorphic behaviour clusters of energy expenditure (increased), parenting rehearsal (decreased), peer associations (shifted to male), and grooming-related behaviour (decreased); most of the information was obtained on the syndrome of congenital adrenal hyperplasia and in progestin-induced female hermaphroditism. Studies of children and adults exposed prenatally to exogenous oestrogens and/or progestagens suggest slight demasculinizing effects but cannot yet be considered conclusive. Gender identity is largely dependent on the sex of rearing; a direct role of prenatal hormones in its formation has not been shown.

{"pmid": "256836", "title": "Hormones and sexual differentiation of the brain.", "content": "Hormones and sexual differentiation of the brain. Male rats castrated on the first day of life exhibited predominantly heterotypical (homosexual) behaviour after androgen substitution in adulthood. In addition, an increased evocability of a positive feedback effect of oestrogen was observed in such genetic males. In homosexual men, an increased evocability of a positive oestrogen feedback on luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion was also found as compared to heterosexual men. These findings suggest that male homosexuality may be based, at least in part, on andogen deficiency during a critical period of brain differentiation. In addition, we have found significantly increased plasma follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and LH levels associated with decreased plasma free testosterone levels in homosexual men, but only in effeminate homosexuals. In view of these data, sexual deviations in the human may be based, at least in part, on discrepancies between the genetic sex and a sex-specific sex-hormone level during brain differentiation in prenatal life. Methods were therefore developed for determining genetic sex and sex-specific sex-hormone level during brain differentiation in prenatal life. Methods were therefore developed for determining genetic sex and sex-specific sex-hormone levels in amniotic fluid, in order to detect and possibly correct such discrepancies. Sex hormone-dependent brain differentiation may be mediated, at least in part, by neurotransmitters, which may be regarded as local hormones of the brain. Interestingly enough, we have found permanent abnormalities of mating and other non-mating behaviour associated with permanent structural and chemical alterations in discrete brain regions of rats after neonatal treatment with psychotropic drugs known to affect neurotransmitter metabolism in the brain. Therefore, changes in  neurotransmitter concentrations and/or turnover rates induced by psychosocial influences as well as by systemic hormones (particularly by sex hormones), when occurring during differentiation and maturation of the brain, may permanently affect sexual behaviour, sexual orientation and gender role behaviour throughout life.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256836"}

This allowed a direct measurement of the endogenous pool size of eIF-2 in rabbit reticulocyte lysate according to the principle of isotope dilution. A value of 20 to 30 pmol/ml of lysate was obtained. Although translational inhibition resulting from hemin deficiency appears to be characterized by a change from catalytic to stoichiometric utilization of eIF-2, the pool size of eIF-2 is too small to account for the normal period of protein synthesis before the onset of translation inhibition.

The Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ) and a Level of Aspiration Test (LOA) were used to obtain measures of the personality traits of the sample. The scores obtained showed that the male RAF nurses were significantly less psychotic than male civilian nurses, male civilians or serviceman of similar age. They were also significantly less extraverted than servicemen as a whole and significantly more stable than the male civilian norm.

{"pmid": "256948", "title": "The functions of the nurse in an integrated national health service.", "content": "The functions of the nurse in an integrated national health service. The British National Health Service was reorganized in 1974 when the hospital services and the community health services, previously administered separately, were brought together into one organization: the Area Health Authority. The reorganization was a culmination of developments triggered off as long ago as 1589 when the first Poor Law Act was passed, but more particularly, the reorganization was the natural outcome of a number of important government and professional nursing reports published during the past 30 years. From 1974 the community and hospital nursing services have, therefore, been amalgamated under the direction of one head of the nursing services: a district (or area) nursing officer, who, together with medical, administrative and financial colleagues, manages the health services on a day-to-day basis in a team managing by consensus. The nurse's role in the management teams is both executive and professional: the nurse's unique contribution is that he/she brings a nursing perspective to management. The new nursing service organization has provided new opportunities for reorientating middle nurse managers to a clinical role. It has also provided opportunities for innovating integrated teams of community and hospital nurses and for developing specialist nursing roles. Nurses are also now able to make other additional contributions to health care by their involvement in health care planning team activities and by their membership of the statutory area and regional nursing and midwifery advisory committees. But, on the whole, changes and influence on health care have been brought about chiefly by changes in the managerial structure of British nursing, which is a perspective of the British nursing profession that seems to have been all pervasive since Florence Nightingale's reforms and which is perpetuated by the powerfully socializing agent of British nurse training. As health care and nursing service organizations should be means towards the end of good patient care, it may be timely to focus on the suggestion of autonomous nurse practitioners supported by a separately organized administrative structure.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/256948"}

Much that has been written about the concept, operation, and performance of HMOs--their use of resources compared with other health service systems--masks the real differences among HMOs themselves. Investigation of autonomous units within a unified HMO program shows a surprising diversity. Analytic formulations drawn from long-term and large-scale research fail to account for variations in staffing, budgeting, rate setting, and expansion when applied to institutional research.

Twenty primiparous mothers who had cesarean births were compared with 30 primiparous mothers who had vaginal deliveries to determine differences in their perceptions of the birth experience. The effect of general versus regional anesthesia on the satisfaction level of the cesarean mothers was also investigated. All subjects were between 20 and 32 years of age, were interviewed within 48 hours postpartum, and completed a 29-item questionnaire that measures maternal perceptions about the labor and delivery experience. Satisfaction with the birth experience was significantly lower among cesarean mothers and among those who had general anesthesia. The cesarean group displayed greater hesitancy in naming their infants and tended to view their deliveries as abnormal and having social stigma. The presence of a support person in the operating room for a cesarean birth seemed to lessen anxiety among these mothers. These findings suggest that a cesarean birth has a negative impact on the mother's perceptions of her labor and delivery experience. There is a need for further study of factors that can enhance this experience for families.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/257399"}

The sample included nurses employed at two midwestern psychiatric facilities and students beginning the masters program in psychiatric nursing at a midwestern university. Two questionnaires were administered: MacDonald's Attitude toward Homosexuality Scale--Female (ATHS--F) and the TAW Attitude toward Lesbianism Scenario. Scores on the ATHS--F range from 28 to 252, reflecting increasingly negative attitudes toward lesbianism; scores for this sample ranged from 28 to 232. Demographic variables which showed relationships to ATHS--F scores were type of education (p = .058), religious preference (p = .002), and level of religious devotion (p = .001). The TAW scenario proved more efficacious in determining affective components of attitudes than behavioral aspects.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/257402"}
{"pmid": "257400", "title": "Prenatal nipple conditioning for breastfeeding.", "content": "Prenatal nipple conditioning for breastfeeding. Twenty-two primigravida women who planned to breastfeed began conditioning their nipples six weeks before their expected delivery date by nipple rolling twice a day for two minutes each time; providing gentle friction against the nipple with a terry cloth towel for 15 seconds once a day; and nipple airing for two hours a day, allowing outer clothing to rub against the nipple. Each woman served as her own control, conditioning one nipple but not the other. No nipple ointments or soap were used on either nipple during the course of the study. Each woman was given instructions on breastfeeding techniques to be used after delivery. The women completed two checklists: One revealed how consistently they followed the nipple-conditioning regime; with the other, they rated nipple pain on each breast, for every nursing, during the first five days postdelivery. Ratings were: 1--negligible pain or no pain, 2--definite pain, 3--extreme pain. Seventeen women successfully completed the study. Effect of skin color on the amount of nipple pain was also investigated. The prenatal nipple-conditioning regime significantly reduced the amount of total nipple pain experienced during the first few days of breastfeeding. The amount of extreme pain experienced on the conditioned nipple was significantly (p less than .01) reduced compared to the control nipple. Fair-skinned women reported more nipple soreness on unconditioned nipples, and olive-complected women reported significantly (p less than .01) less nipple soreness on unconditioned nipples.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/257400"}

The paradox of relatively error free function in biological systems composed of relatively error prone components has recently come under intensive investigation. In the case of tRNA aminoacylation, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases were discovered to have a separate function that allows misacylated molecules to be hydrolyzed more rapidly than correctly acylated molecules. This additional function of the synthetases provides a proofreading or verification mechanism that is believed to improve significantly the overall accuracy of tRNA aminoacylation. In this paper we provide an explicit relationship between the accuracy achieved by proofreading and the energy cost. Experimental data available in the literature are examined in light of this relationship. The following are the principal conclusions from our study: (1) high-accuracy proofreading of tRNA aminoacylation has a high energy cost, as much as 100 times greater than indications from early experimental work; (2) the minimum net error derived in previous theoretical studies is never actually reached; (3) mechanisms in which misacylation and subsequent proofreading occur on the surface of the same synthetase molecule achieve a much higher accuracy than mechanisms in which these functions occur on the surface of different synthetase molecules.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258151"}

The subsequent damaging reactions of oxygen-derived radicals and of lipid peroxidation on biological components can be attenuated by various free-radical scavengers and a survey of more than 50 such scavengers in four different systems involving lipid peroxidation has been made.

The toxicity of ozone is solely due to its action as an oxidant. It is an extremely reactive gas which rapidly forms intermediate oxidizing derivatives after inhalation. High concentrations cause death from pulmonary oedema. Both pulmonary and extrapulmonary toxicity have been observed at lower concentrations of ozone, including those currently present in urban air. Pulmonary cellular and subcellular membranes appear to be particularly susceptible. A primary mechanism of this effect is the oxidative decomposition of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which has been demonstrated in rodent lungs after inhalation of ozone. Supporting evidence includes the potentiation of ozone toxicity by vitamin E deficiency and an increased use of this antioxidant vitamin during repetitive exposure to ozone. Other membrane effects include oxidation of thiol groups and, perhaps, of tryptophan. Microsomal alterations include a loss of lung cytochrome P450 which may also be related to lipid peroxidation. Extrapulmonary toxicity is not directly due to ozone but may represent in effect due to lipid peroxide decomposition products, particularly malonaldehyde. This three-carbon dialdehyde has been shown to alter cell membrane fluidity and to have mutagenic properties; the latter perhaps due to cross-linkage of DNA to histone.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258163"}

The genes which direct the structure of human fetal and adult haemoglobin consist of a linked pair of alpha-chain loci on chromosome 16 and the G gamma-A gamma-delta-beta loci complex on chromosome 11. The delta-and beta-chain genes contain inserts similar to those of the mouse and rabbit globin genes. The structure of the various messenger RNAs transcribed from these loci is now worked out although the function of the non-coding regions is not known. The abnormal haemoglobin disorders and thalassaemias result from a variety of lesions at these loci which include single base substitutions, deletions of one or more bases or entire loci, insertions, frame-shifts, fusion genes caused by abnormal crossing over, chain termination mutations and ill-defined defects which lead to a reduced rate of transcription or abnormal structure of messenger RNA. Some progress has been made towards an understanding of the cellular mechanisms whereby the haemoglobin polymorphisms have been maintained. Very little is known about the regulatory mechanisms involved in the switch from fetal to adult haemoglobin production, although it is likely that certain specific areas of the gamma-delta-beta gene complex are involved in its control.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258166"}

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (molecular weight about 42,000) has been purified from rabbit intestines and contains one mole of protohaem IX as the sole prosthetic group. It catalyses the oxidative cleavage of the pyrrole ring of various indoleamines with a much broader specificity of substrate than tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase. The enzyme has an absolute requirement for superoxide anion for catalytic activity. The enzyme was induced specifically in the lungs of mice for 24 h after administration of the lipopolysaccharide fraction of E. coli. This  increase is due to synthesis of enzyme protein and is specific for the lipopolysaccharide fraction. These results are interpreted to mean that indoleamine dioxygenase is induced in pulmonary inflammatory processes in response to an increase in production of superoxide anion, 5-hydroxytryptamine or other indoleamines in the lung as a consequence of inflammation. The dioxygenase reaction is a more innocuous way of disposing of superoxide than dismutation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258162"}
{"pmid": "258165", "title": "Interactions between iron metabolism and oxygen activation.", "content": "Interactions between iron metabolism and oxygen activation. On account of its easy access in aqueous solution to the two states ferrous (FeII) and ferric (FeIII), iron is ideally suited for the activation of molecular oxygen. It is, therefore, logical to seek links between the normal and pathological metabolism of iron and oxygen activation. The pathways of intracellular iron metabolism require changes in the oxidation state of iron both in its deposition in the storage form, ferritin, and in its mobilization from the storage form and use in the cell. Evidence is presented which shows that iron oxidation and deposition in ferritin involves activation of molecular oxygen with formation of a stable peroxo-complex as an intermediate in which the oxygen is bound between two iron atoms attached to adjacent polypeptide chains. The release of iron from ferritin is thought to involve reduction by a flavin, which is associated with the protein, and serves as a cofactor being alternately reduced by NADH or NADPH and oxidized by iron(III). The nature of the low-molecular-weight iron complex which serves to transfer storage iron to transferrin and to supply iron for intracellular use remains to be established. The consequence of excessive iron overload can be rationalized on the basis of oxidative free-radical reactions which provoke lesions typical of deregulated oxygen activation. In some cases these pathological defects can be reversed by iron chelators. Progress in the development of chelation therapy for iron overload are reviewed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258165"}

The separate enzymes in such a multilocus set ressemble each other not only in their enzyme properties, but also in subunit structures and in molecular sizes. However there are often remarkable differences in expression of the several loci of a set from tissue to tissue. Such sets of loci probably arose in evolution by gene duplications with subsequent divergence by point mutations.

It seems likely that the precursor system was what is now the alternative pathway and that its original function was a positive feedback loop for amplifying inflammatory reactions. These views are supported by physicochemical data on the complement components; by genetic data; and by similarities in the reaction patterns. Study of subjects with isolated complement component deficiencies provides information on the function of complement in vivo. It has been found that complement component deficiency is associated with bacterial infection, particularly with Neisseria; and even more so with immune complex disease. This second, rather surprising, association is likely to be the result of a requirement for complement in the catabolism of immune complexes on the one hand, and the need for an intact complement system to eliminate low virulence infectious organisms on the other.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258168"}

Many new categories of DNA sequence organization in higher organisms have been discovered in the last 20 years. Most of these are not found in bacterial and each in turn is hailed as a likely candidate for those regulatory elements which are assumed to distinguish higher from lower organisms. This article stresses the similarities between their sequence organizations and the continuing lack of convincing function for any of them. It suggests that these sequences often appear after chance recombinational events and their presence then facilitates further change. Within the constraints of proper function the genome is clearly able to find many organizational solutions of apparently equal advantage to the organism. Finally, an example of rapid genome reorganization resulting from selection for resistance to the drug methotrexate is considered.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258169"}

Malignancy, as measured by the ability of cells to grow progressively in vivo, is intimately linked to the presence of a structural abnormality in the polysaccharide moiety of one particular membrane glycoprotein. This abnormality is present in a wide range of different tumours; it co-segregates with malignancy in all crosses between malignant and non-malignant cells that have so far been tested; and it remains linked to malignancy in a stringent new test in which non-malignant variants are selected from tumour cell populations by the use of a lectin.

The topics covered in this paper include: (i) a somatic cell genetics approach for measuring the individual variability in the susceptibility to DNA damage/repair at the level of specific chromosomal sites; (ii) a rationale for a selective chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy of chromosomally unbalanced tumours; and (iii) studies on complementation for sister chromatid exchange (SCE) in roden-human hybrids. Preliminary studies indicate that the 'radiation co-transfer method' for gene mapping can be simplified and used in screening for differences in individual susceptibility to radiation induced chromosomal damage. The second topic is dealt with only speculatively, with the explicit aim of emphasizing a practical application in clinical medicine which may potentially derive from the admittedly esoteric activity of gene mappers. The third topic summarizes a somatic cell genetic approach to the study of SCE in mammalian cells. The high rate of SCE observed in an established rodent cell line can be fully suppressed after hybridization with SCE-normal human cells. However, this suppression can be fully removed after extensive loss of the human chromosome complement. Correspondingly, the high SCE rate of Bloom syndrome cells is fully corrected after hybridization with a Chinese hamster line, though the chromosomes of the latter parental cells continue to exhibit in the hybrid cells the moderately high rate of SCE which is typical of this animal line. These complementation experiments indicate that more than one lesion can upset the normal chromatid replication of mammalian cells and lead to high SCE. The experimental studies described promise to be of significant help for studies on the biology of SCE in general and offer a suitable way of screening for possible genetical heterogeneity among different Bloom syndrome patients.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258171"}

A mixture of synthetic phospholipids containing 90% Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine and 10% Dipalmitoylphosphatidylglycerol was tested for its suitability as surfactant substitute. Different methods of preparation were employed. The substance was studied by chromatography, Wilhelmy balance, and in rabbits after tracheal instillation during mechanical ventilation. When prepared as suspension of multilamellar liposomes in NaCl, the phospholipid samples displayed the essential surfactant features of adsorption from the subphase, spreading to a monolayer and lowering the surface tension to 3.7 dyn/cm at compression. For a dose of 2.55 microgram/cm2, the stability index was 1.83 +/- 0.29. Samples prepared with ultrasound were not surface-active. Sonication also destroyed the surface-tension-lowering ability of previously active samples. No signs of local toxicity were found in the treated animals. When radioactive DPPC/DPPG was instillated into the trachea of the ventilated rabbit, autohistoradiography demonstrated radioactive material in the alveoli covering the alveolar wall with a thin layer. Provided that proper techniques of preparation and administration are employed, the phospholipids tested are a promising surfactant substitute worthy of clinical study.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258178"}

Antibody chains are encoded in three gene clusters containing genes for the variable and constant regions. V and C genes are separated in germ line and during differentiation a rearrangement takes place. But even after this rearrangement the V and C coding sequences are not contiguous. A final splicing must take place in committed cells between the transcription of a discontinuous V-and C-region DNA and the expression of a continuous mRNA coding for an antibody chain. Analysis by cell fusion indicates that the splicing is cis. When two antibody-producing cell lines are fused, the resulting hybrids express the two antibodies that characterize the parental lines. Permanent cell lines producing antibody of predefined specificity have now been derived in this way. Spleen cells from hyperimmunized donors are fused with myeloma cells and a proportion of the hybrids that are established synthesize and secrete antibodies directed against the immunogen. The heterogeneous cell population can be cloned and propagated. This is a potent way of producing monospecific antibodies to complex antigens such as cell membranes and transplantation antigens. Monoclonal xenogeneic antibodies to rat cell-surface membranes have proved very valuable for characterizing and separating rat lymphocyte subpopulations. In more recent experiments, monoclonal xenogeneic antibodies to mouse and human cell-surface antigens have also been produced which permit the characterization of the hitherto undescribed differentiation antigens.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258170"}

If health is a state of equilibrium between intrinsic (genetic) functions and extrinsic (environmental) factors, then disease can be defined as a state of disequilibrium. Medicine has traditionally emphasized extrinsic factors in the origin of human diseases; medical genetics is concerned with the intrinsic factors (mutations) that either yield disease in the universal environment or constitute states of risk for individuals in particular (or universal) enviroments. Genetic screening is a process that defines specific risks for particular individuals. Screening is an ineffective activity if there is no participation by clients. Newborn (and homozygote) screening, on the basis of an experience involving 35 million infants, is usually considered as a 'successful' enterprise. But adult screening, usually for heterozygosity, is quantitatively a much more important activity in its execution, judging from current experience. Comprehension of risk and perceived importance of biological individuality by potential participants and advocates are part of the problem. A major revision in the education of medical personnel and citizens is indicated if medical genetics is to achieve its goals.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258174"}

The first part of this paper summarizes conclusions drawn from theoretical analysis of cultural change, as appeared in various papers (published and unpublished) by the author in collaboration with Marc Feldman. Among conclusions emphasized are the tendency to homogeneity of cultural traits with most mechanisms of cultural transmissions, the great variation in rates of change and conditions determining them, and the major factors responsible for change. The possibility of genetic variation in learning ability adds considerable complications and determines joint biological and cultural evolution. In the second part of the paper, one very specific example of biological and cultural coevolution is outlined. Archaeological information shows that agriculture spread slowly from a Near East area of origin of domestication of plants and animals. The spread towards Europe is particularly well mapped. There are good reasons why the spread of agriculture may have been accompanied by a spread of farmers from the area of origin. It turns out that synthetic gene maps of Europe showing such a spread of farmers would be an excellent explanation for the geographic distribution of genes in Europe.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258176"}

Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), Fanconi anaemia (FA), ataxia telangiectasia (AT) and Bloom disease (BS) are four rare autosomal recessive disorders in which there is defective DNA repair and/or chromosome instability and proneness to malignancy. Between 80 and 90% of patients with XP have a defect, demonstrable at cell level, of excision of DNA lesions induced by ultraviolet rays, while the remainder have a cellular error of post-replication repair. XP cells are also deficient in repairing DNA damage caused by a variety of chemical mutagens. There are at least five different complementation groups of the first, or classical, type of XP (A to D, etc.) Apparently group C patients, as well as those with defective post-replication repair, do not show the progressive neurological illness found in a proportion of the other patients. AT is heterogeneous clinically and genetically. Clinically it presents with a progressive neurological illness, progressive telangiectases and a developmental disorder of the thymus. AT is characterized by sensitivity to X-rays and AT cells are unable to repair gamma-ray-induced damage to bases in the DNA. It appears that in many cases of the disorder a chromosomally marked cellular clone is found. In BS the main defect, which results in growth retardation, sun-induced lesions of the face and susceptibility to infection, appears to be a slow DNA chain maturation during DNA synthesis. An increase of sister chromatid exchanges is characteristically seen in the chromosomes of cultured BS cells. In FA, in which there is progressive pancytopenia with eventual bone marrow exhaustion and a tendency to haemorrhage and infection, the cellular defect seems to consist of faulty removal of repair of cross-links in the DNA. In this condition, as in BS and AT, various structural chromosome changes are detected in cultured cells. Patients with XP develop skin cancers in early life and often maligant melanomas. In the other three disorders, in which an immune deficiency is often present, leukaemia and related proliferative disorders are a frequent cause of death while other malignancies also occur. There is some evidence that points to an increased risk of malignancy in heterozygotes who carry the FA and AT genes.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258177"}

Nurse retention has become a significant issue in the newborn intensive care units for two main reasons: 1) the quality of care declines as it is delivered by inexperienced nurses, and 2) the cost of orienting new nurses is exorbitant. \"Stress\" has been implicated as one of the important factors in nurse retention; it appears that a paradox exists in that the stress/excitement that attracts a nurse to the newborn ICU in the first place may ultimately drive her away. We attempted to define stress factors in the Turner Newborn Intensive Care Unit at Hermann Hospital in Houston, Texas, and to develop management methods to decrease stress. Over a three-year period, during the implementing of new programs, nurse termination rates decreased significantly, as did turnover.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258261"}

An increasing number of women today are choosing to have their babies at home. Health professionals concerned about the welfare of both mother and baby sometime tend to respond to these mothers by lecturing rather than listening. This tends to block communication. As a result, women become frustrated and often leave the health care system. This paper attempts to understand the behavior of women who seek a home birth and hypothesizes that these women are responding in a normal, healthy manner to threats imposed by present maternity care. Viewing women who seek home birth from this perspective would tend to facilitate communication. Through open communication the home birth option can be viewed not as a movement or fad, but as a growth period for women and maternity care.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258264"}

A brief review of the patient package inserts concept and estrogen pharmacology is presented. Then the need for patient education is discussed along with recommendations for a team approach to managing patient anxiety by helping patients understand the estrogen-containing products they are using. This article takes issue with the physicians' handling of patient inserts in estrogen-containing medications when presenting such medication to a patient in need.  This discussion follows a brief review of the rationale of the Food and Drug Administration of using package inserts and a review of estrogen uses, adverse reactions, cautions, and side effects.  The author argues for a more cooperative approach to patient package inserts, which would require direct participation by the physician rather than simple passive reading by the patient.  A questionnaire survey on patients' attitudes, knowledge, views, and sources of drug information on oral contraceptives, with particular attention to the role of the patient-oriented package insert, concluded that professional sources (physician, nurse, or pharmacist) were preferred over nonprofessional and media sources.  A collaborative approach to drug education is recommended, and suggestions for implementation are set forth.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258263"}

To test the hypothesis that primiparas who have had a previous elective abortion will have a higher incidence of depressive reactions postpartum than will primiparas who have not, 48 women pregnant for the first time and 25 who had had one abortion were interviewed six to eight weeks postpartum. No significant difference in the incidence of depression between the two groups could be found. In addition, when associations between their mean depression scores and other variables such as planned pregnancy, preferred infant sex, identified obstetrical problems, help at home, experiencing the baby blues, and an identified recent sad life event were calculated, no significant differences were noted. Spontaneous comments from the previously aborted women suggested that anxiety during pregnancy concerning the infant's health was a greater source of discomfort than was postpartum depression. This study investigated an hypothesis which states that primiparas who have had a previous elective abortion would experience a higher incidence of depressive reactions postpartum that primiparas who had not.  The experimental group consisted of 48 gravida 2, para 1, and the control group of gravida 1, para 1 included 25 women.  All were interviewed 6-8 weeks postpartum, and data were tabulated in a 2 x 2 table.  A chi-squared test of the hypothesis was equivalent to a significance level of P=.39, with a 1-tailed test and with 1 degree of freedom.  Therefore, the data showed no significant differences between the 2 groups studied.  This was further supported by the low coefficient of contingency (C=.03) which indicated little correlation between depression and prior abortion.  In addition, there were no differences among the 2 groups in mean depressive scores with respect to other variables such as planned pregnancy, preferred infant sex, identified obstetrical problems, help at home, the baby blues, or an identified sad event.  Spontaneous comments from the previously aborted women suggested that anxiety during pregnancy concerning the infants' health was a greater source of discomfort than was postpartum depression.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258266"}

Six clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus were compared for their relative susceptibilities to the killing effects of oxacillin. Three of the strains had minimum bactericidal concentrations which were >10 times the minimum bacteriostatic concentration for this antibiotic and were designated tolerant (Tol(+)). The other strains had minimum bactericidal concentrations which were comparable to the minimum bacteriostatic concentration (Tol(-)). Lysis curves of these strains revealed that the Tol(+) strains exhibited a diminished rate of lysis when inhibited by oxacillin. This reduced rate of lysis was reflected also in a reduced rate of viability loss when the cells were exposed to oxacillin. During log growth the uptake of [(14)C]glycerol by Tol(+) cells was 1.5-fold greater than that by Tol(-) cells. Glycerol-labeled cells of each phenotype secreted radioactivity when inhibited by oxacillin. However, the Tol(+) strains released over twice as much label as the Tol(-) strains. No difference in the proportion of lipid secreted by the two phenotypes was found. The behavior of 60 to 65% of the labeled material released by inhibited cells during both sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis and Sepharose 6B chromatography corresponded to that of lipoteichoic acid. When the major component of secreted material was added to oxacillin-inhibited Tol(-) strains, an inhibition of the lytic response was observed. These results suggest that oxacillin tolerance in S. aureus could be related to the enhanced secretion of an autolysin inhibitor, such as lipoteichoic acid.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258576"}

Gentamicin sulfate has been shown to enhance the effects of penicillinase-resistant penicillins against clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus in vitro, but the relevance of this observation to bacteremic patients is unclear. Therefore, serum samples from 14 patients with staphylococcal bacteremia were tested for growth inhibitory and bactericidal effects against the patients' own pathogen while they received a penicillinase-resistant penicillin alone, and again when gentamicin was added to the therapeutic regimen. Addition of gentamicin in vivo was associated with slight improvement in growth inhibitory activity but it caused profound increases in serum bactericidal activity. This effect could not be attributed to higher serum levels of penicillinase-resistant penicillin during gentamicin administration. Addition of gentamicin to penicillinase-resistant penicillin can lead to marked improvement in a patient's serum bactericidal activity against his own staphylococcal pathogen, and should be considered for any patient who does not respond to more conventional therapy.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258599"}

Because of the small number of subjects selected from only two communities, the results are not representative of the country as a whole. Nevertheless, in the city of Rawalpindi 90 users were studied and found to have a mean daily opium consumption of 0.9 grams at a cost of Rs. 1.00 ($US 0.10). Opium was taken by mouth once or twice daily. They were solitary users who first used opium as adults, most often for self-treatment of health disorders. The majority were employed males with no history of criminality. In the rural opium-producing village, 28 users were interviewed. They smoked opium three or four times a day in a social setting and reported a mean daily consumption of 11 grams. They were more likely to use the drug for its social and pleasure effects and to have addicts as close friends. The high dose was associated with adverse effects on work performance and with more severe withdrawal symptoms.

It was then related to parental control, peer involvement in drugs, sex differentiation and membership in youth movements. A bi-modal high involvement curve was found, the first mode consisting of youth of low socio-economic strata who are drop-outs, who associate with outside peer groups as an alternative to their shaky and diffused families and lack of involvement in school life. The other mode consists of youth with a higher socio-economic background who are involved with drugs due to their desire for new hedonistic and emotional experiences. Their openness to experiment with drugs is a corollary to their involvement within a peer group which condones and legitimizes narcotics as well as any experiences which irrespective of their source, provide \"a good high\". There is a sub-group within this group which would be involved with drugs as a partial escape from personal problems.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258603"}

The percentage rate of change into cannabinoids (Cannabidiol [CBD], tetrahydrocannabinol [THC] and cannabinol [CBN]) was higher in cannabis samples than in the extracts. This is probalby due to the decomposition of acids into corresponding neutral cannabinoids under the conditions of storage. Previous claims that CBD content in plant material is relatively constant are not substantiated by our results. There was a 1.0-2.5-fold increase in CBD content in plant material compared with the extracts. However, the fact that there was no appreciable increase in CBD/CBN content in the stored extracts of the same samples supports the view that the step-wise extraction does not bring the acids into the final extract pure delta 9THC decomposed at a rate of 41 per cent per year under tropical storage conditions. The delta 9THC content decreased in the samples and equally in the extracts though 100 per cent conversion of THC to CBN does not take place. The higher CBN content found in extracts than that expected by the conversion THC to CBN is a result of metabolic conversion.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258607"}

A sudden increase in the incidence of ampicillin resistance was observed among Salmonella species isolated within New Zealand in 1973--4. This increase was due mainly to the apperance and proliferation of Salmonella newington and Salmonella anatum serotypes resistant to ampicillin. The plasmid complements of 14 ampicillin-resistant S. newington and S. anatum isolates obtained from widely separated geographical areas within New Zealand between 1973 and 1974 were characterized by agarose gel electrophoresis. Each contained one or more plasmids ranging in molecular weight from 1.4 to 42 Mdal. Eleven isolates contained a self-transmissible plasmid of 33 Mdal which encoded resistance to ampicillin. After transfer to Escherichia coli, the 33 Mdal R-plasmids from each of these isolates were shown to be identical by restriction endonuclease analysis. The remaining three strains contained ampicillin R-plasmids having molecular weights of 35, 37.5 and 42 Mdal. These plasmids were shown by restriction endonuclease analysis to be related to the 33 Mdal R-plasmid. We conclude that the 33 Mdal plasmid and its derivatives were responsible for the increase in the incidence of ampicillin-resistant S. newington and S. anatum serotypes among the total Salmonella population.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258658"}

A striking increase observed in the demand for the diaphragm method at a contraception clinic for university women was documented by means of a record review and questionnaire. Record reviews completed at the conclusion of each semester from December 1973 to December 1976 showed a statistically significant increase in diaphragm acceptors. In the fall semester of 1976, diaphragm acceptors (49% of 151 patients) surpassed pill acceptors (46%). Data from 123 questionnaires revealed that concern for pill and IUD side effects was the primary reason for diaphragm choice. The study numbers are small, but a definite trend is evident. These educated young women may be forerunners, and an increase in diagphragm use in the general population may be seen in the near future. The Albany Medical College instituted weekly contraception clinics at the Health Service of a local university.  The clinic offered inexpensive contraceptive service for students and patient counseling.  The clinic has been self-supporting through low, fee-for-service charges.  Record reviews completed at the end of each semester from December 1973 to December 1976 showed a marked increase in diaphragm acceptors.  In the fall of 1976, diaphragm acceptors (49% of 151 patients) surpassed pill acceptors (46%).  Concern for pill and IUD side effects was the primary reason for diaphragm choice based on data from 123 interviews.  During the first year of operation a total of 196 patients were served: 146 (74%) chose pills, 17 (9%) selected the IUD, and only 13% (26) opted for the diaphragm.  In fall 1976, 49% chose the diaphragm.  46% chose the pill.  The biggest disadvantages of the diaphragm are that it is messy and interferes with spontaneity.  The advantages of the diaphragm, other than lack of side effects, are safety and reliability of the method, and a lack of need for constant protection because of infrequent relations.  The condom was the backup method used most frequently; 11 used no backup of any kind.  74% reported that they used the diaphragm with every contact; 40% did not.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258677"}

The DuPage County population was urban, while the Johnson County population had a strong farm background and the majority of the subjects still resided on a farm. The DuPage County sample of 1,466 represented approximately 5 percent of the elderly population. The sample size in the Johnson County study was only 82; however, it represented approximately 10 percent of the elderly in the eight townships of the study area. The method of interviewing in the resident's homes was replicated as was DuPage's method of statistical analysis. Comparison of data from the two counties showed striking similarities in all parameters: health condition, physical functioning accessibility of medical care, social isolation, and service needs. Both studies found need for additional health services. A multiple disciplinary service approach to health needs would assist the elderly to remain in their own homes longer and to improve the quality of their lives.

The study was undertaken to identify dimensions, or motivational orientations that underlie reasons nurses participate in continuing education programs and to determine relationships between these orientations and the legal status of CE and selected demographic characteristics of participants. The sample included 843 nurses who participated in CE programs sponsored by colleges and universities with accredited baccalaureate schools of nursing. Two instruments were used for data collection: a 56-item checklist consisting of reasons for participation (Education Participation Scale) and a personal data sheet. Factor analysis of responses to the EPS indicated that seven motivational orientations underlay the nurses' reasons for participation: compliance with authority, improvement in social relations, improvement in social welfare skills, professional advancement, professional knowledge, relief from routine, and acquisition of credentials. Mean scores on each orientation for the entire sample ranged from 6.55 (professional knowledge) to 1.57 (improvement in social relations) on a 10-point scale. Analysis of variance to determine the relationship between motivational orientation scores and legal status of continuing nursing education revealed no differences among the three legal conditions studied---mandatory, proposed, and voluntary CE---except on the acquisition of credentials orientation. Scores on this orientation varied significantly (p less than .001), but only for respondents employed part-time; for these nurses mean scores were ranked mandatory, proposed, then voluntary. Study findings suggest that, for these nurses, the presence or threat of a mandatory CE law had little influence in motivating participation. Rather, these nurses participated in continuing nursing education programs for reasons related to maintaining professional currency and improving their ability to serve the public.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258803"}

However, our main concern is for the patients and their families as a primary care practitioner rightly should be. Therefore, scientific study results are interspersed among the sections on a variety of clinical concerns. Alcohol abuse and alcoholism are family affairs. Families are complex interactive systems that serve to maintain themselves and their members. Under certain conditions the powerful forces at work within a family can promote the use of alcohol as an effort to solve problems. This chapter has discussed some methods which may be used to change them. Alcohol also presents a number of specialized problems that may occur in family practice.

Changes in the diameter of liver sinusoids were studied by an intravital television microscope method in pentobarbital-anaesthetized rats. Dilatation of liver sinusoids was observed during parasympathetic neural stimulation and during acetylcholine administration. Frequency-dependent stimulation-effect relationships were obtained by electrical excitation of intact vagus nerves at supramaximal intensity from 2 to 8 Hz. Acetylcholine concentration-effect relationships were also obtained by intraportal venous infusions of acetylcholine 30 microliter for 5 s from 10(-9) to 10(-2) mol.1(-1). Systemic cholinergic receptor blockade with atropine (1 mg.kg-1) markedly reduced dilatation of liver sinusoids produced by both vagus nerve stimulation and acetylcholine administration. Changes in diameter of liver sinusoids with frequency of neural stimulation and with concentration of administered acetylcholine were also expressed as percentage of observed maximum effect and the respective stimulation-effect curves were constructed such that at a certain percentage of diameter change, the equivalent level of vagus nerve activity was represented by a given concentration of administered acetylcholine. Liver plasma concentration of acetylcholine presumably released during electrical vagal stimulation and reaching liver sinusoids was also estimated and found to be within physiological range. It is therefore proposed that rat liver sinusoids have the capacity for parasympathetic cholinergic vasodilatation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258824"}

The effects of intravenous infusions of arginine vasopressin (AVP) alone and with angiotensin II (AII) on renal function were studied in conscious Merino ewes. AVP at 11.5 pmol.min-1 caused an increase in water and electrolyte output which was associated with a rise in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), solute clearance, solute-free water reabsorption and tubular sodium reabsorption. Addition of AII of 100 ng.min-1 generally reversed all of these effects. The filtration fraction, which rose during AVP infusion, increased further when AII was added due to a greater fall in renal plasma flow than in GFR. The diuretic and electrolyte-excreting effects of infused AVP appeared to be brought about by an increase in GFR. It is suggested that this inappropriate effect of AVP, which is secreted in response to water deprivation, could be countered by the simultaneous production of AII.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258825"}

Validation of the submaximal heart rate/oxygen consumption relationship as an index of 'cardiorespiratory fitness' requires the demonstration of systematic alterations in this relationship concomitant with interventions designed to alter physical fitness. To fulfil those criteria a longitudinal training/de-training study was undertaken. Previously sedentary adult subjects undertook the Canadian Airforce 5BX-XBX exercise programme. Submaximal exercise tests were performed before and after training, and following several weeks cessation of training. A regression line of submaximal heart rate on submaximal oxygen consumption was calculated from the data of each submaximal exercise test. Alterations in the regression lines were examined for each subject individually by testing statistically for difference in slope and elevation between any pair of lines. Subjects who undertook the training/de-training study demonstrated significant systematic alterations in the elevation of the regression lines concomitant with periods of training and de-training. The reproducibility of the submaximal heart rate/oxygen consumption relationship was examined in two additional groups of subjects. Group A repeated a submaximal test on 3 or 4 successive days; Group B were tested before and after 16 weeks of normal activity. Subjects in Group A demonstrated non significant, random alterations in the regression lines on repeated testing and subjects in Group B demonstrated random, though on occasion significant, alterations in the regression lines. The elevation of the submaximal heart rate/oxygen consumption relationship is therefore a valid index for detecting sequential changes in 'cardiorespiratory fitness' in individual subjects.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258828"}

It is widely accepted that the relationship between oxygen consumption and body weight obtained during exercise on a bicycle ergometer differs from that obtained during treadmill walking. Experimental evidence to support this claim is lacking. To examine this difference a group of subjects (body weight 41--81 kg) undertook a predetermined level of submaximal exercise on a bicycle ergometer and a treadmill. Oxygen consumption was measured in a steady state at rest (i.e. sitting on the bicycle ergometer and standing on the treadmill) and during the two modes of exercise. A significant positive correlation between oxygen consumption and body weight was obtained under all four conditions of measurement. At rest the two regression lines did not differ in slope or elevation. During exercise the slope and the elevation of the line obtain from treadmill walking were significantly greater than from bicycle ergometer exercise. The 'metabolic cost' of bicycle ergometer exercise, (Vo2 during exercise--V02 at rest), showed no significant correlation with body weight. In contrast, there was a significant positive correlation during walking. It is suggested that these differences have arisen due to a different proportion of the total body weight supported by the subject in the two forms of exercise.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258829"}

In anaesthetized rabbits, cardiac output (C.O.) and its distribution to the mammary glands, heart, liver and kidneys have been determined in established lactation (11--13 days), later lactation (26--27 days) and in virgins. During lactation, the volume of circulating blood, C.O., mammary blood flow and mammary weight were significantly greater than in virgins. There were no significant differences in C.O. and % C.O. received by the mammary glands between established and late lactation, and no significant decrease in mammary blood flow in late lactation. The weights of the liver and kidneys were significantly increased in lactation but there were no significant differences in liver, heart (coronary) and kidney blood flow. The rate of growth of the young was positively and significantly correlated with % C.O. received by the mammary glands and mammary weight, but not with C.O. Strong correlation was also observed between the % C.O. received by the mammary glands and mammary weight. There were no significant differences in C.O., mammary % C.O. and mammary blood flow in animals in established lactation 2--3 h and 24 h after suckling (i.e. shortly after and just before suckling). By 48 h after the last suckling mammary blood flow and % C.O., but not C.O., were significantly decreased. Possible factors causing these changes are discussed. The results are discussed in relation to the change in milk composition that occurs in late lactation in this species and to the role and effects of prolactin. It is suggested that events occurring during lactation have different sensitivities to prolactin.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/258830"}

Mammalian embryonic development depends on extrinsic support by the maternal organism. During the preimplantation period the growing blastocyst needs favourable environmental conditions, which are provided by endometrial transformations and secretion. The macromolecular composition of uterine secretion at different times before implantation is characterized by a spectrum of protein patterns which change daily. In an attempt to shed light on the significance of the uterine secretion proteins, particularly uteroglobin in the rabbit, in the establishment of early pregnancy, analyses are reported which demonstrate the origin and endocrine control of the synthesis and release of these proteins. In a comparative study of blastocyst development in vivo and in vitro the significance and consequences of asynchrony between the embryonic and maternal reproductive phases are investigated. Particular attention is drawn to uterine influences on the rabbit blastocyst coverings, and how embryonic development can be retarded by abnormal structural transformation of the zona pellucida and the mucin coat. Finally, the covenient experimental systems of pseudopregnancy and of delayed uterine secretion in the rabbit permit an approach the question of whether the uterine macromolecular components constitute a maternal response to the presence of the as yet unimplanted blastocyst.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259036"}

Various aspects of RNA, DNA and protein synthesis, as well as cellular fine structure, were examined in mouse embryos during the developmental diapause associated with delayed implantation, and during the reactivation of the embryo either by hormonal administration or by culture in vitro. The findings from these studies demonstrate that a cessation of DNA synthesis and mitosis, and a marked decline in the level of protein synthesis, but not of RNA synthesis, accompany diapause. Reactivation of the blastocyst results in the resumption of DNA synthesis and cell division, as well as in quantitative and qualitative changes in protein synthesis. At the fine-structural level diapause is indicated by the accumulation of lipid-like vacuoles, microfilaments, a basal lamina coating trophectodermal cells and the disassembly of polysomes into ribosomes. Significantly, nucleolar morphology remains unaltered during diapause and cisternae of the rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum persist at least for the first five days of delay. Reactivation of diapausing blastocysts is associated with the reassembly of polysomes and the accumulation of large quantities of an amorphous material within the cisternae of the rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum. Studies of blastocyst growth and development in vitro suggest experimental approaches to the question of the regulation delayed implantation. Finally, the role of ionic balances and concentrations in the control of the onset, maintenance and termination of delayed implantation in the mouse is discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259037"}

Suckling is the most important and best-known influence that the marsupia offspring exerts on its mother but recent evidence suggests that this is not the only way it proclaims its presence. The pregnant female differs from the non-pregnant in several features, which appear to be due to the presence of the conceptus in the uterus. The converse influence of the female on the embryo is best known in kangaroos and wallabies because the facultative and obligate embryonic diapause they exhibit has provided excellent opportunities for experimental investigation of the environmental and hormonal control of early pregnancy. Results from the tammar wallaby, which exhibits both types of diapause, show that the initiation of diapause occurs on Day 8 p.c. The sequence of events that lead to blastocyst reactivation, after removing the suckling stimulus (facultative diapause), takes seven days and involves a reduction in prolactin secretion from the anterior pituitary, reactivation of the corpus luteum, increase in endometrial secretion and reactivation of the blastocyst. The ultimate control of obligate diapause involves alteration of photoperiod but the role of prolactin is still uncertain.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259038"}

The corpus luteum of the ovulatory cycle is essential for establishing and maintaining the first seven weeks of human pregnancy. Progesterone, given parenterally, appears to be a satisfactory substitute for the corpus luteum, known to be the source of this steroid hormone during this period. Moreover, hCG appears to be essential for sustained secretion of progesterone by the corpus luteum, particularly during the first three weeks after fertilization. In primates at least, neutralization of the biological effects of CG during this critical period results in a reduction of blood progesterone levels and the interruption of pregnancy. Although alternative sources of hCG exist, and the physiological relevance of these sources requires further study, hCG appears to be essential component in the maternal recognition of pregnancy.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259039"}
{"pmid": "259040", "title": "Blastocyst oestrogen synthesis and the maternal recognition of pregnancy.", "content": "Blastocyst oestrogen synthesis and the maternal recognition of pregnancy. The maternal recognition of pregnancy takes a number of forms in different species; among the eutherian mammals the maintenance of luteal function and cessation of oestrous or menstrual cycles is an important event in early pregnancy. In the pig the embryos signal their presence in the uterus between Days 10 and 12 post coitum; this time corresponds to the onset of blastocyst synthesis of oestrogens, which are luteotrophic in this species, and it has been suggested that oestrogens may constitute an embryonic signal responsible for maintained luteal function in pregnancy. Although oestrone sulphate, which is formed from oestrogens of embryonic origin by uterine sulphotransferase, has been found in the maternal circulation in high concentrations after Day 15 p.c., its appearance is late relative to the time of maternal recognition of pregnancy. Therefore an alternative mechanism has been sought. The recent finding that oestradiol is capable of reducing uterine prostaglandin F2 alpha secretion (i.e. acting as an antiluteolysin), and that it is present in uterine venous blood as early as Day 12 p.c. in pregnant pigs, suggests a mechanism whereby blastocyst oestrogens may be capable of influencing luteal function.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259040"}
{"pmid": "259041", "title": "Antiluteolytic effect of the embryo.", "content": "Antiluteolytic effect of the embryo. In several mammalian species, prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha) released from the uterus causes corpus luteum regression, and thereby regulates the length of the oestrous cycle or pseudopregnancy. If the animal becomes pregnant, luteal regression must be prevented since ovarian progesterone is necessary for pregnancy maintenance during at least the first one-third of pregnancy. Evidence is presented that the guinea-pig conceptus produces an antiluteolytic factor which suppresses PGF2 alpha output from the uterus by preventing the increase in uterine PGF2 alpha-synthesizing capacity which occurs around the time of luteolysis. Experiments in unilaterally pregnant guinea-pigs, with either an intact or a transected sterile horn, indicate that this factor acts both locally systemically, though separation of the two uterine horns does greatly reduce its effect on the sterile side. Oestradiol administered during early pregnancy induces abortion, which is associated with a high PGF2 alpha-synthesizing capacity of the uterus. However, luteal regression does not take place while the conceptuses are in the uterus. Spontaneously aborting guinea-pigs behave similarly. The conceptus may therefore secrete a luteotrophic hormone as well. Luteal maintenance during early pregnancy in other species is discussed, since experiments on sheep indicate that the sheep embryo may also secrete an antiluteolytic factor.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259041"}

Fertilized eggs reach the uterus of the mare by the sixth day after ovulation whereas unfertilized eggs remain lodged in the fallopian tubes for many months. However, embryo removal studies indicate that the fetal message for luteal maintenance in the pregnant mare is not transmitted until Days 14-16. The equine endometrial cups comprise a series of small, ulcer-like endometrial outgrowths which are present in the pregnant horn of the uterus between 40 and 150 days of gestation. Each cup consists of a discrete colony of large, gonadotropin-secreting, trophoblast cells derived from a specialized region of the fetal membranes which invade the maternal endometrium around Day 37 after ovulation. Histological examination of endometrial cups from horses and donkeys, carrying intra- and interspecific conceptuses and after reciprocal transfer of hybrid zygotes, indicates maternal recognition of paternal transplantation antigens on the endometrial cup cells. This leads to a successful cell-mediated immune reaction which destroys the cups. The development of the local immune response is paralled by a rapid rise in the titre of paterno-specific cytotoxic antibodies in maternal serum. The precise function of endometrial cups in the maintenance of equine pregnancy remains to be elucidated.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259042"}

Implantation is a critical event, and perhaps the earliest one, in the maternal recognition of pregnancy. Information transfer from conceptus to mother might occur during, and subsequent to, implantation at the level of cell surface interaction. Therefore, attempts have been made both to identify the phases of implantation during which changes in the blastocyst surface occur and to characterized such changes. In vitro, blastocysts have been found to go through a series of discrete steps which are analogous to implantation in utero, and these steps can be retarded or prevented by the use of either suboptimal culture media or an inappropriate substratum. Morphological surface changes are not apparent when the blastocyst becomes adherent to the substratum; however, marked differences in blastocyst surface structure are revealed by scanning electron microscopy at the onset of trophoblast outgrowth. Studies at the molecular level implicate collagen as having a role in blastocyst adhesiveness, but other cell surface components are also likely to be involved.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259043"}

Other contributors to this symposium have analysed in great detail the many components that go to make up reproductive success, so it is fitting to conclude with some thoughts about the aetiology of reproductive failure. Firstly, there are occasions when reproduction can be too successful, so that a density-dependent mechanism for inducing early embryonic mortality may be a most valuable protective mechanism. This is particularly true for polytocous species, where it may be necessary to achieve some regulation of litter size by differential embryonic mortality. Even in monotocous species some degree of embryonic mortality may also be advantageous as a way of prolonging the interval between successive births, for if one infant follows too hard upon the heels of another, the normal growth and development of both offspring will be permanently impaired. Embryonic mortality is also likely to be an effective insurance mechanism against the production of genetically defective offspring, because the absence of haploid gene expression will protect the spermatozoon from maternal immunological surveillance systems. With these concepts in mind, it is interesting to look at the nature and extent of embryonic loss in man and animals.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259044"}

Biophysical and genetic analysis of staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) synthesis in 16 methicillin-resistant (Mecr) Staphylococcus aureus isolates demonstrated that the toxin gene (entB) can occupy either a plasmid or chromosomal locus. Biophysical analysis of the plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid content of these strains by agarose gel electrophoresis revealed the presence of a 1.15-megadalton plasmid in six isolates that appears to contain the entB gene. Genetic manipulation of SEB synthesis by transduction and elimination procedures demonstrated that this plasmid is critical for enterotoxigenesis. Nevertheless, the majority of the Mecr SEB+ isolates (62.5%) analyzed in this investigation were found to lack the 1.15-megadalton plasmid. In at least two of these strains (COL and 57-dk), transduction and elimination procedures showed that entB was chromosomal. Genetic studies involving strains harboring either a plasmid or chromosomal entB gene demonstrated that toxin synthesis was coeliminated with mec. However, analysis of the entB and mec loci by transformation or transduction showed that the genes are not closely linked. On the other hand, transduction of entB, regardless of the donor, was observed when both mec and the Tcr plasmid were jointly cotransduced. This finding suggests that, during transduction, a transient association between entB, mec, and the Tcr plasmid may exist.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259057"}

Staphylococcus epidermidis is a major pathogen in early prosthetic valve endocarditis and cerebrospinal fluid shunt infections. Approximately 10 to 15% of hospital isolates are methicillin resistant. Ten clinically significant isolates of the latter were collected for antibiotic studies in vitro and in an experimental infection in animals. Time-kill studies of five strains showed gentamicin to be the single most effective antibiotic; however, dwarf colony variants emerged as survivors with two of these strains when challenged with gentamicin alone. The addition of a second antibiotic to gentamicin did not significantly improve the bactericidal rate but prevented the emergence of variant strains. A blood culture isolate of methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis combined with 5% hog gastric mucin was used to establish an experimental intraperitoneal infection in mice. Neither methicillin nor nafcillin treatment reduced mortality below that of untreated animals. Cephalothin treatment delayed early mortality but did not diminish overall mortality. Gentamicin was the most effective single antibiotic, and gentamicin in combination with vancomycin was the most effective regimen overall. The combination of rifampin plus vancomycin was as effective as gentamicin alone. The combinations of cephalothin or nafcillin with gentamicin and cephalothin with vancomycin demonstrated antagonism. The antagonism was not due to multiple injections or drug-drug inactivation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259421"}

The hydration phenomena of A-RNA double helix and the anticodon loop of transfer RNA have been theoretically investigated using the empirical potential energy functions. The hydration schemes of a model compound of A-RNA and a polynucleotide which has the structure of the anticodon loop of yeast tRNAPhe have been determined, and their stabilization energies produced by the introduction of water in the first hydration shell were calculated by considering the hydrated ones as supermolecules. The results indicate that hydration scheme of A-RNA considerably differs from that of B-DNA and stabilization energy due to hydration of A-RNA is not so great as B-DNA. In the anticodon loop structure, however, stabilizing effect of the bound water molecules upon the structure is significant. From the results, the reason why the structure of RNA remains unchanged with the change of hydration degree while that of DNA is altered was studied.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259422"}

The preference in binding of given isoacceptors changes with the age of lupin seedling.

The vinylogue of methylglyoxal, 4-oxopent-2-enal, was expected to be a most reactive electron acceptor, on the basis of quantum mechanical calculations by J.J. Ladik's group.

Ab initio quantum mechanical calculations are used to study the interactions of the aldehydic group of methylglyoxal with the NH2 groups of protein side-chains, using methylamine as a representative molecule. The hydrogen-bonding interaction, C = O...H - N, results in an electronic charge transfer from methylglyoxal to methylamine in both the ground and first excited triplet states. In this latter state a slight possibility is found for the H atom in the hydrogen bond to tunnel from methylglyoxal to methylamine, leading to the possible formation of two free radical fragments. The approach of methylamine to methylglyoxal in the stacked conformation C...N to form a hemiacetal, associated with electron charge transfer from methylamine to methylglyoxal, is energetically unfavourable in vacuum. The concomitant tunnelling of a proton from a proton-donating solvent molecule to the aldehydic oxygen of methylglyoxal is shown to make this approach favourable.

The research of Szent-Györgyi and others has suggested that the three-carbon ketoaldehyde methylglyoxal has a potential role in the control of cell growth. Its metabolism to D-lactate (not the L-lactate of glycolysis) is catalysed by the mammalian enzymes glyoxalase I (S-lactoyl-glutathione methylglyoxal-lyase, isomerizing; EC 4.4.1.5) and glyoxalase II (S-2-hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolase; 3.1.2.6), with glutathione as a coenzyme. Direct determination of methylglyoxal in biological tissues is difficult because of the active glyoxalase system. However, the product of the glyoxalase system, D-lactate, should indicate formed or added methylglyoxal. A stereospecific assay was used to measure D-lactate in human plasma; it involved the spectrophotometric analysis of NADH at 340 nm catalysed by D-lactate dehydrogenase (D-lactate:NAD+ oxidoreductase; EC 1.1.1.28) from Lactobacillus leichmannii. Blood collected by venepuncture was used for the determination of the plasma concentration of D-lactate. The mean concentration for seven normal subjects was 0.023 mM +/- 0.002 S.E.M. When the glycolytic pathway in whole blood was inhibited in vitro with fluoride, a significant increase in D-lactate was found (about 0.15 mM/hour at 37 degrees C). Added methylglyoxal also produced an increase in D-lactate formation. Some specific precursors of L-lactate (dihydroxyacetone phosphate, for example) added to whole blood produced an increased concentration of D-lactate, even when glycolysis was not inhibited. This finding indicates that catabolites of glucose lead to methylglyoxal synthesis and suggest a control function for the glyoxalase enzyme system in glycolysis that could be exploited for cancer therapy.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259500"}

The effect of methylglyoxal and other aldehydes on several biochemical variables has been studied. Aldehydes inhibit amino acid incorporation into proteins, both in reconstituted systems and in isolated hepatocytes. They also decrease the secretion of protein and lipoprotein from hepatocytes into the incubation medium. This inhibition is seen even with prelabelled proteins, which indicates damage to the secretory mechanism itself. This conclusion is strenghened by the fact that aldehydes also decrease the binding of colchicine to liver tubulin. Aldehydes decrease the respiratory rate of mitochondria, as well as mitochondrial swelling induced by phosphate, by Ca2+ or by K+ plus valinomycin. They also partially inhibit cytochrome P-450. When injected into normal rats, aldehydes produce a decrease in the mitotic index of bone marrow cells and of the epithelial lining of the small intestine. A decrease in mitotic index and in cellularity is seen after injecting aldehydes into the peritoneal cavity of rats bearing transplanted ascites AH-130 Yoshida hepatoma. Aldehydes also impair the function of liver cell ligandin and potentiate the increase in cell permeability induced by 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin).

{"pmid": "259502", "title": "The living state and cancer.", "content": "The living state and cancer. The surrounding world can be divided into two parts: alive and inanimate. What makes the difference is the subtle reactivity of living systems. The difference is so great that it is reasonable to suppose that what underlies life is a specific physical state, 'the living state'. Living systems are built mainly of nucleic acids and proteins. The former are the guardians of the basic blueprint while the business of life is carried on by proteins. Proteins thus have to share the subtle reactivity of living systems. A closed-shell protein molecule, however, has no electronic mobility, and has but a low chemical reactivity. Its orbitals are occupied by electron pairs which are held firmly. The situation can be changed by taking single electrons out of the system. This unpairs electrons, leaves half-occupied orbitals with positive electron holes, making the molecules into highly reactive paramagnetic free radicals. The reactivity of the system depends on the degree of its electronic desaturation. Electrons can be taken out of protein molecules by 'electron aceptors' in 'cahrge transfer'. When life began, our globe was covered by dense water vapour. There was no light and no free oxygen. Electron acceptors could be made out of trioses by concentrating their carbon atoms as carbonyls at one end of the molecule. The resulting methylglyoxal is a weak acceptor which made a low level of development possible. When light appeared, free oxygen was generated by the energy of photons. Oxygen is a strong electron acceptor. Its appearance opened the way to the present level of development. The transfer of electrons from protein to oxygen is effected by a complex chemical mechanism which involves ascorbic acid.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259502"}

The results obtained for polyglycine, polyalanine, and for the mixed poly(Gly-Ala) periodic chain, as well as for the four homopolynucleotides, are presented. The correction of these band structures for excitonic effects (in the excited state) and for long-range correlation effects is shown also. Furthermore, it is outlined how the short-range correlation in insulator biopolymers and correlation effects in proteins with a partially filled valence band (for instance, due to charge transfer) can be calculated. The Coherent Potential Approximation is outlined and its possible application to aperiodic proteins and DNA is pointed out.

Theoretical calculations have already shown that the electronic properties of biopolymers may be described in terms of conduction and valence energy bands in which electrons are delocalized to a significant degree. Because these bands are separated by a large energy gap, it is concluded that electronic conduction in such systems must be by 'holes' in the valence band. The mechanism of this conduction is discussed with special reference to dry proteins where the charge-transfer role of appropriate acceptor molecules and the modulating influence of amino acid residues will encourage localized and delocalized hole production at the valence band edge. It is suggested that there are close similarities, which have shown up in measurements, in the electrical behaviour of proteins and other non-biological semi-crystalline solids. The significance of such long-range conduction and attendant polarization is considered briefly in the light of evidence for the existence of proteins in cell membranes and in the skeleton of the cytoplasm", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259505"}

Steady-state conduction and dielectric measurements over the frequency range 10(-5) to 10(5) Hz are reported for several proteins that have been complexed with methylglyoxal. Compared with the normal (white) proteins the brown protein--methylglyoxal complexes exhibit a marked increase in electronic conductivity and a pronounced low-frequency dielectric dispersion. The intensity of the brown colour and the electronic activity is directly related to the number of free lysine groups available to react with the methylglyoxal. It is proposed that the methylglyoxal molecules form Schiff bases with the epsilon-amino groups of lysine residues and that these Schiff bases then form a charge-transfer complex with a neighbouring peptide unit. For collagen, in particular, it is found that the electron 'holes' so formed in the polypeptide backbone are capable of long range motion in what can be interpreted as being the valence band of extended electronic states of the protein structure. The protein--methylglyoxal complexes have electronic and dielectric properties similar to those exhibited by the perylene-chloranil charge-transfer complex.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/259506"}

The magnitude of the task of providing basic health care for all the people of India necessitates reorientation of the entire health delivery system.  Family welfare programs must be integrated into the comprehensive health care system.  There must be a shift from the present institutionalized curative care programs to community-based comprehensive care which emphasizes preventive, promotive, and rehabilitative aspects of health care.  In addition, the current health hierarchical system must give way to a health team approach.  This can be facilitated if nursing personnel are given greater responsibilities in the health care system.  Physicians must take the responsibility of training other members of the health care team, especially in family planning areas.  Nurses can identify eligible cases, refer cases to proper services, actively participate in aspects of the family planning program, provide follow-up and educative services, and act in administrative roles.  There is a current shortage of nursing personnel in India because salaries are low, working conditions are poor, facilities are inadequate, social security is lacking, and they are asked to perform many nonnursing duties.  Recommendations to remedy these inadequacies are offered.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/260120"}

{"pmid": "260647", "title": "Abortion surveillance shows slower increase.", "content": "Abortion surveillance shows slower increase. According to a report in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, there was a 9% increase in the number of induced abortions reported to the U.S. Center for Disease Control in 1977 over 1976.  This was a lower increase than in previous years.  As in previous years, those obtaining abortions tended to be young, white, unmarried, and of low parity, although women of black and other races obtained abortions proportionately more frequently than white women.  The fact that there seem to be more unwanted pregnancies among black women indicates an unmet need for family planning services.  1 effect of the 1973 Supreme Court ruling has been to increase availability of abortion services in all states for women, to the point where only 10% of women obtaining abortions in 1977 did so out of their home state.  Curettage accounted for 94% of all abortion procedures in 1977 and 92% were performed within the 1st 12 weeks of pregnancy.  More effective use of contraception and greater use of sterilization may account for the slowdown in the percentage increase of abortions in 1977.  Improved sex education courses, changes in attitudes, and decreased public funding for abortion services and referral programs have also contributed to the slowdown.  In 1977, for the 1st time since 1972, there was an increase in abortion-related mortality.  Delay and choice of procedure influence mortality risk the most.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/260647"}

The dependence of protein synthesis on the intracellular content of aminoacylated tRNA has been studied in mouse ascites tumor cells deprived for various amino acids. A remarkable reduction in net protein synthesis has been found only after a drastic decrease in aminoacylation of tRNA. The quantitative correlation of protein synthesis with the degree of aminoacylation suggests that a moderate amino acid starvation primarily influences the rate of elongation at the codon concerned. These results are in contrast to the findings previously reported for HeLa cells. Some crucial steps during the determination of intracellular aminoacyl-tRNA have been investigated. The reliability of the method employed has been discussed on a theoretical basis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/260696"}

We have analyzed the transcription of a cloned silkworm tRNA2Ala gene in germinal vesicle extracts of X. laevis oocytes. The primary transcript was sequenced; it is 98 nucleotides long, beginning with a 5' triphosphate nucleotide and ending in  a 3' oligouridine stretch. After transcription for long periods of time, enzymes in the frog extract also process the tRNA2Ala precursor to remove extra 5' and 3' nucleotides and to add a CCA end. The twenty-two extra nucleotides at the 3' end of this precursor are recovered as an intact fragment, implicating a new site of endoribonuclease cleavage in eucaryotic tRNA processing. This enzyme activity has also been demonstrated by reincubation of isolated pre-tRNA2Ala with a germinal vesicle extract. The products of in vitro cleavage are the same as those seen in the transcription reactions. The tRNA2Ala precursor molecules are made faithfully in the system with as few as 6 bp of Bombyx morti DNA upstream of the transcription initiation site of the tRNA2Ala gene. This result narrows down the minimal amount of DNA adjacent to the 5' end of a eucaryotic tRNA gene needed to support proper initiation by RNA polymerase III.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/260697"}

The turnover rate and patterns in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) were assessed and compared with adult Intensive Care Units (ICUs) and General Infant Care Units at the same hospitals for the year 1976. Thirty-five hospitals with NICUs participated in the study. The findings of this study disagree with the previous literature in three major ways: 1 The turnover rate of staff nurses was less than half that estimated by The National Commission on Nursing for 1970. 2 The turnover rates in ICUs and NICUs were not significantly higher than that for staff nurses in Non-Intensive Care Units. In addition, the pattern of turnover among leavers is identical for all three major types of unit. The variability pattern for neonatal units, however, is statistically significant; this is not so with the other units studied. 3 There is no evidence for a stabilization of turnover following the usual 'induction crisis period' (the first 3 to 6 months).", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/260720"}

The proposition of this paper is principally that if the term 'reassurance' is used by nurses its meaning should be clearly stated and the methods by which it may be achieved should be clearly identified. The author begins by attempting to identify a workable definition of the term and by arguing a case for taking the approach that it is a nursing interpersonal skill rather than a nursing psychotherapy. Using this as the basis for the rest of the discussion he then suggests that as an interpersonal skill it is open to analysis and behaviours can be identified which help to achieve a restoration of the patient's confidence. Further to this, learning objectives are stated in the hope that the concept of reassurance can be seen as a skill which can be enhanced by educational processes. Full competence in the use of interpersonal skills is not a stable feature in all human beings; in every individual nurse there is scope for the development and training of interpersonal skills. Finally, the author attempts to achieve the major aim of the paper--stating nursing actions which may be employed in order to achieve this reassurance of the patient.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/260723"}

Nursing programmes in the United States of America are based on a conceptual framework. Not only do faculty and students ascribe to the necessity of such programmes but the national accreditation agency also provides its accreditation approval for the institution only after all criteria are met, including the requirement of a well-defined, operationalized and implemented framework. Can a nursing programme be developed in other nations utilizing the esoteric, American-based idea of the necessity for a conceptually based curriculum? The author answers this question. The manuscript presents both the process utilized in selecting a conceptual framwork for a new junior college programme in Kuwait and discusses the selected framework. The idea of a conceptual framework to guide the curriculum was as foreign in Kuwait as it was to nursing curricula in the United States 15 years ago. Though initially rejected by the faculty in Kuwait, the idea of a conceptual framework was reintroduced after much faculty discussion and questions related to nursing knowledge vis-a-vis medical knowledge, and what should be included in and excluded from the programme. By the end of the second year, a definite framework had been operationalized into courses and content. The selection of the framework evolved from faculty participation in the operationalization of the framework. This point is quite significant particularly in an international assignment, as it is the faculty who are left with the monumental task of supporting and continuing the work which has been done. Strategies used to develop and implement a conceptual framework included confrontation of faculty of the existing situation, lectures, seminars, workshops, and the identification of a critical review board.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/260726"}

The reason that studies do not always come to the same conclusion is that some studies are improperly carried out and others are inadequately analyzed.  Use of a biased sample constitutes an example of an improperly conducted study.  It is often difficult to obtain a representative sample in developing areas.  Inadequate funding and pressures to present any findings regarding infant feeding and health in the community lead to studies conducted with biased samples.  For example, samples from clinic or hospital patients are biased and do not adequately represent the health of the overall community.  Inadequate analysis of study findings is exemplified by confusion between correlation and cause-effect relationships between variables.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/260738"}

The parents of 200 malnourished childred referred and admitted over the July-December 1976 period to the nutrition wing of the Children's University Teaching Hospital, Zambia, were interviewed in an effort to understand the home environment of malnourished children in Lusaka, Zambia.  The 1974 incidence of malnutrition in Zambia was about 23% with higher prevalences of marasmus and moderate malnutrition.  There were 9.4% severly malnourished children admitted in 1976 as compared with less than 1% in 1971.  Many of these children were admitted very late in a hypothermic shocked state which is directly responsible for the increasing incidence of mortality over these years.  Plasma or blood transfusion is a standard procedure in all shocked cases of kwashiorkor, yet many of the children still die within 24 hours of admission.  Malnutrition incidence was found to be closely linked to the rise in price index.  The majority of the children were admitted from the rainy months November to March, the time associated with a higher incidence of gastroenteritis, respiratory infections, and measles.  88% of the children were between 1-3 years old.  Marasmus (33.5%) and marasmic kwashiorkor (40.5%) were more frequent.  63% of the malnourished childred had attended the child health clinics in their infancy and were immunized but discontinued attendance one vaccination was completed.  The problem of malnutrition was in the toddler age group.  86% of the childred came from urban slums and periurban areas; 83% were from unitary families, living in 1 or 2 bedroom houses with no separate provision for a kitchen.  Rural families (14%) were living as joint families.  32% of the children were from large families.  52% of the parents were employed as casual laborers and earning under US $35 per month.  There were only 10 families with earnings in excess of US $125 per month and only 8 had good sources of income from farms.  As many as 68.5% children were experiencing 1 or more adverse factors which contributed to their present condition.  Almost half of the mothers were pregnant or carrying a young child.  An alcoholic family, divorce, or separation of parents was frequently observed.  Separation from the mother was marked by a deterioration in the health of the children.  Only 4 divorced mothers were working to support the family.  The remainder were dependent on their parents.  53% of mothers were favorable to family spacing if properly motiavated.  A social rehabilitation program should meaningfully involve the family unit.  Parental responsibilities must be propagated.

The effect of birth interval on some physical and mental aspects of 9-year old children was studied in Singapore between September 1974 and July 1975.  Birth interval falls into 2 main categories -- B1, the interval preceding the birth of the index child and B2, the interval following the birth of the child.  It was hypothesized that the shorter the interval B1 the lower the vocabulary score and general attainment of the index child would be and the shorter the interval B2 the lesser the physical growth of the index child would be.  A significant difference was found in the Mill Hill vocabulary score, Raven's Progressive Matrices score, as well as height and weight for children born with varying birth intervals.  Children with shorter B1 intervals do score lower than those with longer B1 intervals, there being a gradual improvement as B1 progresses from less than 12 months to over 24 months.  The relationship is linear.  The effect of B2 is less marked and is inconsistent.  The most striking correlation is between B1 and vocabulary score, B1 accounting for about 39% of the variation in the Mill Hill test.  B2 does not have as great an effect as expected on height and weight, but it was significant at the 5% level for height. B1 is again more important.  In both height and weight, neither birth interval is as important as in the verbal and perception tests.  Neither family size nor language spoken at home affect the vocabulary score to any significant extent.  Income does have an association with all 4 major variables considered and is 2nd in importance to B1 as a predictor variable in the cases of vocabulary score and Raven's score.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/260745"}

Medical records are also important in workman's compensation cases, insurance claims, personal injury cases, and even in physician disciplinary hearings as well as their collection of bills. In creating and maintaining patient records, physicians and hospitals have several legal duties, including the duty to do so adequately, to safeguard the records' physical existence, and to prevent such use of the records as would violate the patient's right to confidentiality. Courts and legislatures are looking with increasing favor on the patient's interest in the content of his record, a phenomenon which is closely linked to the nationwide trend in favor of the patient's right to know and his right to determine his own physical destiny.

Binucleate cells which usually contain aggregations of spherical membrane-bound electron-dense inclusions, are a characteristic component of the chorionic epithelium of the sheep. Following CB154 infusion into either the fetus or ewe at 111 to 137 days of gestation, binucleate cells were partially or completely depleted of the droplets which are present in binucleate cells of control animals at a similar gestational age. No obvious changes in the maternal epithelial syncytium were observed after CB154 administration. Infusion of CB154 into the fetus alone was also followed by degenerative changes in some binucleate cells which ranged from condensation of nuclei to complete cell fragmentation.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis is an important cause of cerebrospinal fluid shunt infections and prosthetic valve endocarditis. Agar dilution minimum inhibitory concentrations were determined for 100 strains of methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis which were isolated from clinical specimens. Vancomycin inhibited all 100 strains at </=3.12 mug/ml, whereas clindamycin inhibited only 46 strains at </=12.5 mug/ml. Methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis strains were resistant to achievable levels of erythromycin, with 90 strains having a minimum inhibitory concentration of >/=3.12 mug/ml. Of the five cephalosporins and one cephamycin tested, cefamandole was the most active in vitro, inhibiting 97 strains at </=25 mug/ml. Antibiotic synergism was examined by a quantitative bacterial time-kill method. Synergism (>/=10(2) kill by the combination over the most effective single antibiotic at 24 h) was demonstrated with vancomycin (1.56 mug/ml) plus cefamandole (6.25 mug/ml) in 14 of 14 strains, vancomycin plus cephalothin (6.25 mug/ml) in 14 of 14 strains, vancomycin plus rifampin (0.008 to 0.012 mug/ml) in 6 of 12 strains, rifampin plus cefamandole in 9 of 12 strains, and rifampin plus cephalothin in 10 of 12 strains. The emergence of populations of bacteria resistant to 0.2 mug of rifampin per ml developed in three of five methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis strains tested. The addition of either vancomycin, cephalothin, or cefamandole to the rifampin prevented the emergence of resistance in these three strains. Clinical trials of synergistic antibiotic combination therapy for serious methicillin-resistant S. epidermidis infections are indicated.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/260880"}

This procedure was applied to determine cocaine content in three samples of Erythroxylum coca Lam. collected from different geographic locations in Peru. Using androst-4-ene-3,17-dione as the internal standard the calibration curve was linear over a factor of 0.5 to 10 fold cocaine concentration relative to internal standard.

A human colon kininogenase (kallikrein) was isolated by gel filtration on Sephacryl S-200 and affinity chromatography on Trasylolbound Sepharose, yielding a material with a specific activity of 1.3 U/mg (substrate: AcPheArgOEt). The molecular weight of the enzyme as estimated by gel filtration is approximately 70 000. After reduction with mercaptoethanol two bands were obtained in dodecyl sulfate eletrophoresis with molecular weights of 27 000 and 70 000. The bimolecular velocity constant for the inhibition by diisopropyl fluorophosphate was determined as 4 l x mol-1 x min-1. The preparation was characterized by immunological and enzymatic methods. Using the radioimmumoassay for human urinary kallikrein cross-reactivity and parallel binding curves were obtained. Kinin liberation from human high Mr-kininogen was totally inhibited by antibodies directed against human urinary kallikrein. Trasylol and diisopropyl fluorophosphate, but not by antibodies directed against human trypsin and plasma kallikrein. The effect on dog blood pressure was comparable to that obtained with human urinary kallikrein.

Interest in breast feeding and human milk continued in the literature in 1977.  A review of the various areas related to lactation which appeared in publications in 1977 is made.  The biological interactions between mother and nursing infant were explored.  The biochemical composition of human milk was investigated in different circumstances.  There seem to be particular problems with assessing the volume of breast milk produced in relation to optimal infant growth.  Research as already shown that human milk has antiviral properties.  Environmental pollutants are found in breast milk, but no immediate ill effects have yet been noted.  Breast milk has been shown to be a better protection for the infant against protein allergies and common infections.  Lactation seems to protect the mothers against development of breast cancer.  Investigation continues into longterm advantages for the child of breast- as opposed to bottle-feeding.  National health services have become interested in promoting breast feeding in many developing countries.  Research is continuing into ways to promote breast feeding among working women.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261097"}

Advantages of the use of a rubber stamp to aid in collecting client information at Maternal and Child Health care centers in Tunisia are discussed.  The stamp's use insures standardised data collection on pertinent points related to the health of mothers and infants who are regular clinic users.  The child's card is stamped at each visit and information is then filled at each designated area.  These are: breast feeding, artificial feeding, whether the child is fed with his family, age of weaning, whether the mother is pregnant and how many months, and whether she has had a tetanus shot.  The Nurse can make recommendations on feeding with the use of a specific chart for adequate nourishment for a Tunisian infant up to 11 months of age.  Whether the mother has followed previous recommendations is determined by comparing current answers with those noted down previously.  Staff errors are also easily pinpointed by the discrepancies they make in noting down various information.  Staff education can then be geared accordingly.  The resulting well standardised collection of data will be useful in specific studies on the clinics and the area.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261106"}

A survey was conducted to assess current knowledge, attitude and practice pertaining to family planning and population issues and to gauge changes in these respects since 1973 when the 1st National Survey on Family Planning in Singapore was conducted.  Field operations included 3 phases: updating of addresses; preliminary interviewing to identify and collect information on basic characteristics of women eligible for the main survey; and comprehensive interviewing of the selected women in their homes.  2467 women were successfully interviewed.  The rise in the mean age at 1st marriage from 21.6 years among married women of reproductive age in 1973 to 22.1 years among a similar group of women in 1977 was indicative of a slight move towards later marriages.  The mean number of children declined from 3.4 in 1973 to 2.8 in 1977; the mean number of children considered ideal for a married couple in Singapore fell from 3.1 to 2.7 over the same period.  Awareness of the oral contraceptive and female sterilization rose from its high levels in 1973 to almost universal levels in 1977; awareness of the condom, IUD and male sterilization increased from 81% to 88%, 51% to 62% and 50% to 75% respectively.  Contraceptive practice increased from 60% of respondents in 1973 to 71% in 1977.  The ever-users increased from 77% to 86% over the same period.  Awareness of the government policy advocating a 2-child family increased from 75% in 1973 to 93% in 1977.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261337"}

A patient with chronic membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis is presented whose serum contains a monoclonal IgG3 cryoglobulin. The presence of persistent hypocomplementemia suggested the possibility that the cryoglobulin, upon cold-induced precipitation, was capable of activating the complement system. Because visible cryoprecipitation commenced in vitro at 30 degrees C, the patient's serum and normal serum had been added the isolated cryoglobulin were repeatedly cooled to 30 degrees C and rewarmed to 37 degrees C. This reproduction of the in vivo counterpart of blood circulating through an extremity exposed to the cold resulted in activation of C3-proactivator (properdin factor B), C3 cleavage, and a 78% reduction in total hemolytic complement. This study demonstrates that IgG is capable of activating complement via the alternate pathway and reveals a mechanism through which this can occur in vivo; namely, by means of temperature dependent polymerization. In addition, we postulate that episodic complement activation initiated by the cryoglobulin contributed to the development of glomerulonephritis in this patient.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261514"}

A method is described for the simultaneous purification of milligram quantities of complement components C2 and Factor B. Both products are homogeneous by the criteria of polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and N-terminal sequence analysis. Component C2 is cleaved by serine proteinase C1s at an X-Lys bond to give fragment C2a (approx. mol.wt. 74000) and fragment C2b (approx. mol.wt. 34000). The two fragments can be separated by gel filtration without the need for reducing or denaturing agents. Fragment C2b represents the N-terminal end of the molecule. Similar results were seen on cleavage of Factor B by Factor D in the presence of component C3. Again two non-covalently linked fragments are formed. The smaller, fragment Ba (approx. mol.wt. 36,000),) has threonine as the N-terminal residue, as does Factor B; the larger, fragment Bb (approx. mol. wt. 58000), has lysine as the N-terminal residue. A similar cleavage pattern is obtained on limited proteolysis of Factor B by trypsin, suggesting an Arg-Lys-or Lys-Lys bond at the point of cleavage.

This paper describes a method of quantifying the amount of smaller peptides in physiological fluids and reports the preliminary results of studying the mesenteric blood of adult guinea-pigs during absorption of a partial hydrolysate of casein. Because of the different roles suggested for plasma and erythrocytes in the inter-organ transport of amino acids, both plasma and whole blood have been studied. Whole blood and plasma samples were deproteinized with sulphosalicylic acid, and amino acids and small peptides separated from residual small amounts of protein on a Sephadex G-25 column. Ion exchange chromatography was then performed before and after acid hydrolysis. The concentration of small peptides in blood seems to be much lower than was previously believed. The adult guinea-pig did not absorb small peptides across the intestine into mesenteric whole blood or plasma in our experiments. However, casein hydrolysates are not necessarily representative of all protein hydrolysates, and further studies are required using different proteins and varying degrees of hydrolysis. The possibility of peptide transfer during development, and in conditions involving mucosal damage, should also be investigated. The present investigation confirms the assumption that predominantly plasma, and not red blood corpuscles, carries amino acids from the gut to the liver. It is worth noting, however, that taurine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, citrulline and arginine were found in higher concentrations in whole mesenteric blood than in plasma.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261520"}

An important adaptation of the gastrointestinal tract to the extrauterine environment is its development of a mucosal barrier against the penetration of harmful substances (bacteria, toxins and antigens) present within the intestinal lumen. At birth, the newborn infant must be prepared to deal with bacterial colonization of the gut, with formation of toxic byproducts of bacteria and viruses (enterotoxins and endotoxins) and with the ingestion of antigens (milk proteins). These potentially noxious substances if allowed to penetrate the mucosal epithelial barrier under pathological conditions can cause inflammatory and allergic reactions which may result in gastrointestinal and systemic disease states. To combat the potential danger of invasion across the mucosal barrier the infant must develop an elaborate system of defence mechanisms within the lumen and on the luminal mucosal surface which act to control and maintain the epithelium as an impermeable barrier to uptake of macromolecular antigens. These defences include a unique immunological system adapted to function in the complicated milieu of the intestine as well as other non-immunological processes such as a gastric barrier, intestinal surface secretions, peristaltic movement and natural antibacterial substances (lysozyme, bile salts) which also help to provide maximum protection for the intestinal surface. Unfortunately, during the immediate postpartum period, particularly for premature and small-for-dates infants, this elaborate local defence system is incompletely developed. As a result of the delay in the maturation of the mucosal barrier newborn infants are particularly vulnerable to pathological penetration by harmful intraluminal substances. The consequences of altered defence are susceptibility to infection and the potential for hypersensitivity reactions and for formation of immune complexes. With these reactions comes the potential for developing life-threatening diseases such as necrotizing enterocolitis, sepsis and hepatitis. Fortunately, 'nature' has provided a means for passively protecting the 'vulnerable' newborn against dangers of a deficient intestinal defence system, namely human milk. It is now increasingly apparent that human milk contains not only antibodies and viable leucocytes but many other substances which can interfere with bacterial colonization and prevent antigen penetration.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261521"}

The first part of the paper deals with the effect of changes in the mother's hormonal status on the development of the small intestine of her offspring. Administration of cortisone or triiodothyronine (T3) to pregnant rats evokes a precocious appearance of sucrase activity in the fetal small intestine. Administered to lactating rats, T3 evokes a precocious increase in sucrase activity in sucklings and leads to increased T3 levels and decreased TSH levels in the mother's milk and in sera of mothers and sucklings. These experiments show that (a) sucrase activity can be induced in the fetal period; (b) changes in the mother's hormonal balance during the fetal and suckling period can influence the development of the small intestine; and (c) levels of thyroid hormones in milk can be altered experimentally. The second part deals with jejuno-ileal gradients in villus size and sucrase activity. Both gradients appear in fetal jejunal and ileal implants developing in adult hosts. Our experiments indicate that (a) the gradients are already 'programmed' during the fetal period; and (b) direct contact with food, and proximity of the jejunum to the flow of digesta from the stomach, are not decisive for expression of the jejuno-ileal gradients, but may play a 'tuning' role.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261519"}

D-Xylose absorption (using the one-hour blood levels) and active D-glucose absorption (calculated from changes in transmural electrical potential difference) have been measured after intraduodenal infusion of the appropriate sugar, in groups of neonates who were full-term or preterm, and who were in addition either appropriately sized for gestational age, or growth-retarded in utero. The one-hour D-xylose blood levels were significantly lower in preterm infants, and were even lower in the growth-retarded group. In follow-up studies D-xylose absorption rose in all groups of infants over the first three weeks of postnatal life but there was no sign of 'catch-up' in the results of the growth-retarded infants. In the studies of D-glucose absorption the theoretical kinetic parameters 'apparent P.D.max' (equivalent to Vmax) and 'apparent Km' were calculated. Normal full-term infants had values for both parameters that were approximately two-thirds of published adult values.

Susceptibility to deficiency during early postnatal life is influenced by the extent of fetal trace element reserves, by inadequacies in the supply of some elements in maternal milk and by postnatal changes in the efficiency of trace element absorption. The efficiency with which essential and some toxic trace elements are absorbed after birth is a function both of age and of diet. Homeostatic mechanisms for the control of iron absorption are poorly developed in the newborn. There are indications that pinocytotic absorption of iron, copper, lead and cadmium may occur at this stage and account for the high efficiency with which these elements are absorbed from a liquid diet. Evidence of developmental changes in the enterohepatic recirculation of such metals is considered and an account is given of our very inadequate understanding of the processes of trace metal absorption in the weaned animal.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261522"}

Of 19 recently isolated cultures of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, 18 showed inducible low-level resistance to minocycline, 15 showed high-level resistance to streptomycin, and 4 showed resistance to low levels of streptomycin. Two cultures produced yellow pigment and may have been derived in vivo by loss of a gene(s) determining orange pigment. Treatment of three cultures with serial exposures to N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine resulted in a widening of phage typing pattern that included all reactions in group I, the great majority in group III, but none in group II. The widening in phage lysis was possibly due to the elimination of defective prophages. Transfer of tetracycline resistance occurred from 12 out of the 19 cultures to a recipient in mixed culture; this transfer required either Ca2+ or Mg2+, was abolished by citrate, and enhanced by high cell density. It was probably mediated by defective bacteriophages. No evidence was obtained for the occurrence of recombination within the methicillin-resistant clone in nature.

This investigation aims at monitoring the formation of diamines in the gastrointestinal tract of human infants, and thereby also the bacterial colonization of the intestine, by studying the urinary excretion of the heterocyclic amine piperidine during development and in different malabsorptive states. A gas chromatographic assay of the dinitrophenyl derivative of piperidine and a mass spectrometric method of identification were worked out and applied. The piperidine excretion was expressed in units of urinary creatinine concentration. Adult women show a greater variation than men, both inter- and intra-individually. The piperidine excretion is very low and mostly undetectable in the first week of life. There is an increase in weaning, with a significant difference between breast-fed and formula-fed infants at 4--6 months. There is a significant difference between infants suffering from untreated coeliac disease and infants without malabsorption. The findings indicate that piperidine excretion is a sensitive biochemical index of changes in the gastrointestinal flora. The high excretion in coeliac disease suggests that piperidine, which is known to have nicotine-like synaptic activity in the CNS, is one of the hitherto unidentified 'auto-intoxicating' substances arising from the bacterial decomposition of protein suggested by Metchnikoff in 1903.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261524"}

During the last five days ('last trimester') of the 22-day gestation period of the rat the mucosa of the small intestine changes from undifferentiated stratified epithelium without villi to a mucosa with villi covered with simple columnar epithelium. During this process many secondary lumina form in the primitive stratified epithelium; these lumina enlarge and eventually fuse with the main intestinal lumen as degenerating superficial epithelial cells are exfoliated and as upward growth of mesenchyme towards the main lumen takes place. Proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells occurs along the entire length of the newly formed villi until one or two days before birth, when proliferating epithelial cells become confined to incompletely formed crypts at the base of the villi. In contrast, differentiation of the small intestinal mucosa in human fetuses begins much earlier in gestation. Villi form at 9 to 10 weeks and crypts are well developed by 12 weeks (first trimester). By 17 weeks, all epithelial cells types seen in intestinal crypts of adults are present. Absorptive cells on villi have a prominent apical tubular system, large meconium-filled lysosomes and abundant glycogen between 10 and 22 weeks' gestation. Whereas there is uptake of the macromolecular marker, ferritin, into the apical tubular system after eight or more minutes of in vitro exposure, there is no evidence of transport of ferritin across the absorptive cells after up to 40 minutes of exposure between 11 and 12 weeks' gestation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261525"}

The composition of breast milk from 197 mothers lactating for 12-34 months was investigated seeking correlation of composition with maternal and child nutrition and an estimate of nutritional value to be derived from mother's milk in the 2nd and 3rd years of life.  It was found that although the composition of breast milk is not constant from 1 mother to another or at all periods of lactation or even hourly throughout the day, the mean concentration of protein, fat and lactose in milk from women lactating for more than 1 year was the same as milk composition during the 1st year.  Proximate composition was not influenced by the duration or lactation or the nutritional status of the mother.  Even though the lactating mother is undernourished, she continues to provide high quality milk for her child.  In that no mother in this series was below 70% weight for height, severe malnutrition could not be evaluated.  Among children receiving mother's milk, there is no correlation between proximate composition and the nutritional status of the child.  Calculations to show the nutritional value of breast milk in the 2nd year indicate that it may supply 1/3 of all protein needs.  The presence of only 1 severely malnourished child in this group of children supports a protective nutritional effect of the breast milk.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261532"}

The surfaces of the epithelial cells of the rat small intestine were studied by fluorescence microscopy using various fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated lectins. Throughout most of the adult intestine changes were detected in the luminal surfaces as the cells differentiate and move from the crypts to the villi. These changes in cell surface material depend upon the region of intestine in which the villi are located. By the end of the second week of postnatal development the cell surface components detected by the lectins used in this study have appeared at all levels of the small intestine. The maturational and regional differences begin to appear during the third week of postnatal development, and the adult pattern of distribution of surface components is established by 30 days after birth. By eight weeks after proximal jejunal-ileal resectioning or transposition of ileal segments to the jejunum, the epithelial cell surfaces of the relocated ileum had acquired the surface properties characteristic of the jejunal cells. However, jejunal segments transposed to the ileum maintained their original cell surface characteristics and influenced the properties of ileal cell surfaces distally adjacent to the transposed segment. The cell surface material detected by the Ricinus communis (RCAI) lectin was extracted from crypt cells of adult rat jejunum and isolated by affinity chromatography. The isolated material was found to contain at least two components, and its distribution in the jejunum was examined by fluorescence microscopy using antibodies prepared against the isolated material.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261527"}

The aims and objectives of a training course to train the trainers for village nutrition programs in Indonesia are described along with the selection and preparation of participants, course syllabus, and the various field and classroom activities.  Certain aspects of both the program and training course are unique to Indonesia, but the principles of community nutrition and education techniques are applicable to many varied situations.  The training course is aimed at workers who will be training villagers and overseeing the initiation and the operation of the various program activities envisioned.  The assumption is that participants will enter the course with a firm background knowledge of nutrition and some grasp of the precepts of public health.  The participants are divided into groups of 6-7 persons in order to ensure a heterogeneous mix of experience, geography and professional background.  The general course objective was to educate persons designated as trainer for specified districts who will be prepared to train village level volunteers to organize and operate the village nutrition programs.  Course content includes the following:  nutrition; anthropometry; village weighing program; supplementary feeding; nutritional first aid; simple curative health services; home gardening; and organization/management.  The specific objectives for each of the course content areas are outlined.  A precourse reading assignment is sent to each participant 6 weeks prior to the training.  The assignment includes 4 concise pamphlets covering basic nutrition, simple anthropometry, a village weighing guide, and a supplementary feeding program guide.  Accompanying these pamphlets is a detailed examination to be used as a self test by the participant to assure an adequate standard of baseline knowledge on entering the course.  Emphasis during the course is on small group (5-7 members) problem solving activities in the classroom and in the field.  All lectures are illustrated with slides and briefly stenciled outlines that provide all necessary information.  This approach encourages participants to interact more freely with the speaker and to grasp concepts rather than trying to record facts.  A set of detailed written guides to provide clear instructions for action on return home is provided to all participants.  A course schedule is outlined in detail.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261534"}

Cannabis was the most widely encountered drug. Barbiturates constituted a considerable proportion. Amphetamines were rarely found; this was attributed to the unique legislation controlling the storage and sale of amphetamines. Various substances were sold as drugs of abuse. For example, Datura was sold as cannabis which caused a considerable concern because of its toxicity. The recognition of a drug-related problem of some significance in Ireland during 1968 led to the formation of a drug squad in the Irish police. Since that time a total of 4,933 exhibits arising from arrests and drug seizures have been submitted for laboratory analyses.

Blocking of the external ear, middle-ear damping, and middle-ear destruction produced little change in the BERs that were elicited by microwave pulses. Results indicate that activity in the central auditory pathway as induced by pulsed microwaves only requires stimulation of the cochlea.

A microwave system has been developed and characterized for delivering heat directly into tumors. This system employs a microwave power source (3-10W) operating in the 500 MHz to 1.3 GHz frequency range, coaxial transmission line, and a monopole antenna. Absorbed power was measured in saline, in tissue equivalent phantoms, and in tumors in live and dead mice. Antennas were designed to operate at 500 MHz and 1 GHz, and the critical design parameters have been identified for this system. Analytical and experimental results obtained in our laboratory suggest that this system is capable of providing controlled temperature distributions appropriate for hyperthermia in animal tumors. Theoretical results predict that 3 GHz may be an optimum choice for this system in animal tumors of approximately 1 cm diameter; the microwave antenna system provides a heat distribution superior to that obtained using a resistance heater of similar dimensions. We propose that further development of this approach may overcome some of the problems associated with other systems which use external radiation sources, and implications for clinical application of this system are discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261596"}

Microwave heating at the front surface was measured at nine locations on the phantom. Measurements at several depths within the phantom were also made at a central location to gain information on the depth-of-penetration of the microwave energy. Results of the frontal surface measurements and of the penetration study permitted a calculation of the approximate whole-body average specific absorption rate (SAR) when the model's long axis was parallel to the E-field vector. For a normalized power density of 1 mW/cm2 at a frequency of 1.29 GHz, the whole-body average SAR approximated 0.03 W/Kg. This result agrees well with theoretical predictions based on absorption in prolate spheroidal models of man.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261598"}

Each of twelve male hooded rats was trained to insert its head into a food cup for food pellets on a random-interval schedule of reinforcement. After performances stabilized, the rats were assorted into 3 groups of 4 animals. Groups were matched for response rates. Animals were exposed in groups of 4 for 15.5 h to CW 2450-MHz microwaves once every 6 nights. Animals of each group were exposed to microwaves at only one power density, either 5, 10, or 15 mW/cm2; they were exposed three times at an ambient temperature of 22 degrees C, then three times at 28 degrees C, and then once more at 22 degrees C. The relative humidity was 50% during all exposures. Rats were sham irradiated (at 0 mW/cm2) the night before each microwave exposure. Behavior was tested daily after termination of microwave irradiation or after sham exposures. None of the exposures to microwaves at 22 degrees C altered rates or durations of responding. Exposures at 28 degrees C reduced response rates and increased response durations in direct relation to the power density. The results are interpreted as the transient debilitation of behavior produced by the interaction of a mild elevation of ambient temperature and microwave irradiation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261599"}

According to Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, the existence of mental operations proves their usefulness. Darwin called himself a mental materialist. This is one scientific theory of consciousness. Human consciousness has three useful aspects: awareness, intentionality and sharing with others. All have simple equivalents in animals. The latter two are neglected in neurophysiology and experimental psychology. Developmental, neuroanatomical and neuropsychological evidence shows that the human brain has innate structures of awareness, intentionality and interpersonal sharing. Human life depends on interpersonal cooperation. We may have a conscious self, but consciousness of others is essential in us. Studies of commissurotomy patients demonstrate the elaborate interconnected neural organization of consciousness and provide evidence of underlying and necessary levels of motivation, perception and motor integration below consciousness. Additionally, they show that awareness may be split into two different modes. These regulate one another during development and are complementary in culturally sophisticated adult life. One hemisphere, usually the left, has responsibility for expressing ideas and purposes in language. The other responds to the phenomenal context and the subjective situation. Both have human experiences and purposes. Both still collaborate in a unified intentional system after commissurotomy. Infant studies reveal that language develops out of an interpersonal mental process. This seems to control development of thinking. Thus notions of the newborn as an isolated amoral id, and of the infant as an egocentric discoverer of the object concept, must be rejected. Cultivation of moral awareness and a sense of purpose guided by meanings and values depends on innate organization of the human brain for interpersonal consciousness.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261646"}

Consciousness may be understood as a behavioural state and thus levels of consciousness may be distinguished. But consciousness as we understand it is an experience. Any critical reasoning about it will lead to a dualistic formula. A neurophysiological mechanism may exist for this. In the neocortex various aspects of the world and of the physical and social relationships of the individuum to the world are represented through thalamocortical projection systems. There is no unified representation of the world in any single cortical area. All neocortical outputs feed into action systems of the brain. The synthesis of the distributed cortical representations of the world is thus realized through the action elicited by their combination. The action systems of the midbrain-cerebellum and the basal ganglia feed back into neocortical areas (internal loops). The action itself changes the relationship of the individual to the outside world and thus its representation in the brain (external loops). The role of the basal ganglia in the normal functioning of processes in consciousness and in the synthesis of cortical representations is described, which further emphasizes the intricate connections between motor performance and consciousness. The function of the reticular substance and related structures is seen as a gating mechanism for the (thalmic) access gates to the cortex and thus to mechanisms of conscious experience. The basis for the experience of consciousness is the symbolic representation of the world and of the individual to that individual's brain. This self-representation is based on the linguistic competence of the brain in a broad sense and is therefore possible only for brains with such a competence. The symbolic self-representation is called the reflective loop and its conditons are briefly discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261647"}

'Minimal' consciousness is the occurrence of any mental activity, whether or not the subject is aware of this activity. 'Perceptual' consciousness is perceptual activity. Minimal and perceptual consciousness may be present, yet 'introspective' consciousness be lacking. Introspective consciousness is conceived as it was by Locke and Kant: as perception-like awareness of the subject's own current mental states and activities. It includes introspective consciousness of introspective consciousness itself. A useful model for demystifying and naturalizing introspective consciousness is the subject's proprioceptive awareness of bodily states and activities. Introspective consciousness may be further subdivided into 'reflex' introspective consciousness and 'introspection proper'. The distinction is one of degree: the degree of attention involved. We attach a quite special importance to introspective consciousness and are particularly unwilling to identify it with a purely physical process in the brain. It is suggested, however, that this springs from (a) the fact that what is introspected is taken to be a state or activity of a single thing, the self; and (b) the fact that event-memory is generally only possible if the event remembered was the object of introspective consciousness at the time.

Much more difficult is to decide what to do when illness irreparably deprives the brain of cognitive functions. To facilitate less impassioned discussion of this question, 500 consecutive patients in coma from non-traumatic causes have been studied in the USA and Europe and the outcome has been compared against carefully selected early neurological signs. Medical coma was itself a dangerous sign, with only 15% of patients recovering independence within the first month. Within the first six hours, when most medical decisions are made about applying intensive care, neurological signs predicted with 95% confidence between the extremes of favourable and unfavourable outcomes in as many as a quarter of the patients. Only 5% of patients who failed to regain cognition by the end of one week regained any independence. Other more detailed guidelines were equally informative.

It is proposed that injury may be followed by three phases of behaviour in human beings and animals. In the immediate phase, pain may not occur and other activities take precedence. Even when the victims are fully aware of their injury, these other activities may include fighting, escaping and obtaining safety and aid. Once relative safety from the source of injury has been achieved, a new form of behaviour related to allowing recovery begins. This is the acute stage. The need for the initiation of this behaviour is signalled by pain. In the transition stage from injury to the beginning of recovery, anxiety is a cardinal feature. The anxiety is directed at assuring safety from the original damage, at assuring the best conditions for the initiation of treatment and recovery, and at the possible future consequences of the damage. This phase merges with the third period, during which quiet inactivity is the optimal tactic to encourage cure and recovery. This third stage associated with pain and depression may appear prolonged far beyond the necessary period for recovery.

A more potent argument is that pain is too poorly correlated with injury to count as perception of it. This issue is to be settled, in part, by determining the function of pain.

Communication may be approached through the individual, the social situation or social interaction. Psychoanalysis approaches the individual in terms of the coded communications of psychoneurotic symptoms or psychotic behaviour; the humanist-existential approach is concerned more with emotional expression. Both approaches emphasize the development of individual identity. The interaction between persons and their social background is stressed. Relevant are sociological concepts such as illness behaviour, stigma, labelling, institutionalization and compliance. Two approaches to social interactions are considered: the gamesplaying metaphor, e.g. back pain as a psychosocial manipulation--the 'pain game'; and the 'spiral of reciprocal perspectives' which emphasizes the interactional complexities of social perceptions. Communicatory aspects of psychological treatments are noted: learning a particular metaphor such as 'resolution' of the problem (psychotherapy), learning more 'rewarding' behaviour (learning theory) or learning authenticity or self-actualization (humanist-existential).", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261653"}

Self-reflective consciousness is distinguished from 'simple' awareness and from conscious awareness. Awareness is a fundamental property of living matter as it reacts to environmental stimuli. A hypothesis is advanced to account for the general phenomenon of decussation of nerve fibres in the central nervous system of vertebrates. This feature, the crossing over of nerve fibres to the opposite side of the brain, is interpreted as exemplifying the inherent caution of living forms. The evolution of increasing complexity of structure in spinal cord and brain is a prerequisite for increasing awareness of the environment and for increasing freedom from its constraints. Conscious awareness is manifested in living forms primarily when they are learning to respond either to new stimuli or to internal demands such as breathing and walking. The relegation of learnt activities to the realm of unconscious reflex allows for concentration on new and more complex responses, which leads to further freedom of action. The seeming simplicity of human thinking rests on the increasing complexity of the evolving brain and of appropriate responses learnt during phylogenetic development. The human brain and its thinking functions are basically trustworthy because they are rooted in biological evolution.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261656"}
{"pmid": "261657", "title": "The mine--body problem in an evolutionary perspective.", "content": "The mine--body problem in an evolutionary perspective. Charles Darwin realized that his theory of evolution, jointly with the psychoneural identity hypothesis, implies the conjecture that behaviour and ideation evolve alongside anatomical and physiological traits. He was therefore the founder of evolutionary psychology. However, this science has not been pursued with vigour: not even its name has attained currency. In fact most psychologists still think in a pre-evolutionary fashion and seldom ask questions about the adaptive value and possible evolution of behavioural and mental traits. One reason for the underdevelopment of evolutionary psychology is that, on the whole, psychology is still separate from biology. In turn, one reason for this estrangement between close relatives is that psychology is still to some extent in the grip of psychoneural dualism, or the prehistoric belief that mind and body are separate entities. This doctrine is bound to block the advance of evolutionary psychology because a dualist must either deny mental evolution or speculate that it proceeds by some mechanism other than genic variation and natural (and social) selection. On the other hand the psychoneural identity hypothesis fits in with biology and, in particular, with evolutionary biology. Moreover, by construing ideation as a brain process, psychoneural monism explains how ideas (via behaviour) can become a motor of evolution as well as an outcome of it. So, it is in the interest of evolutionary psychologists to pay closer attention to the mind-body problem and to adopt the psychoneural identity hypothesis and turn it into a full-fledged scientific theory.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261657"}

Experimental and linguistic evidence is brought to bear on the analysis of the sign: studies of coding and processing of signs in memory; of slips of the hand; of historical change in signs over time; the heightened use of language in poetry and wit. American Sign Language differs dramatically from English and other spoken languages in the mechanisms by which its lexical units are modified.

The final preparations are homogeneous by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and isoelectrofocusing. The molecular weight of the subunits is 41 000 for cysteinesulphinate transaminase A and 43 400 for B. Both enzymes are unspecific, as L-asparate, L-glutamate and L-cysteic acid serve as substrates in addition to L-cysteinesulphinic acid. Cysteinesulphinate transaminase A has a Km of 9.8 mM for cysteinesulphinic acid and 0.25 mM for aspartic acid, whereas the B enzyme has a Km of 6.5 mM for cysteinesulphinic acid and 1.4 mM for aspartic acid. The Vmax values of the A and B enzymes are respectively 7.1 and 6.2 mmol h-1 mg-1 protein for aspartic acid and 45 and 9.3 mmol h-1 mg-1 protein for cysteinesulphinic acid. Both enzymes exhibit maximum activity at pH 8.6. A high specific activity is found in optimal conditions for these two transaminases, the pI values being 9.06 and 5.70 for cysteinesulphinate transaminase A and B respectively.

In the technique discussed here a semipermeable membrane is interposed between the incubating solution and the tissue section. Because only molecules with a molecular weight of 20 000 can penetrate the membranes, diffusion of enzymes is prevented, whereas substrate molecules and other components necessary for the staining reaction diffuse through the membrane.

Principally these involve proving that the mean absorbance or fluorescence of the specific final reaction product (FRP) is related to section thickness, incubation time, substrate concentration and the concentration of enzyme in situ.

It has now achieved wide applicability to the measurement of cellular biochemical activity by means of stoichiometric chromogenic reactions. The validity of some of these measurements has been confirmed by comparative biochemical and microdensitometric assays. Thus microdensitometry, even of heterogeneously distributed chromophores, can be precise, provided that the technique is operated with due regard to its limitations within the laws of physics. The potential errors include: variation in thickness of tissue sections (path-length); scatter; glare; diffraction; occlusion of light by optically dense particles; and the inhomogeneity error. However, under correct conditions for the cytochemical reactions and for operating the microdensitometer, these potential errors become small or negligible.

Comparative analyses of enzyme activity patterns reveal groups of enzymes with constant proportions and enzymes with variable proportions of their maximum activities. Constant proportion groups comprise enzymes of unbranched metabolic sequences or functionally related pathways. Ratios of constant proportion groups reflect metabolic correlations, which may be used as discriminative magnitudes of  metabolic specialization. Comparison of closely related muscles reveals that differences in the absolute levels of the constant proportion group enzymes of glycolysis parallel differences in maximum glycolytic flux rates. This holds for near-equilibrium as well as for non-equilibrium enzymes. In any case, maximum enzyme activities are significantly higher than maximum metabolic flux rates. Maximum enzyme activities therefore do not permit conclusions on maximum metabolic capacities to be drawn. They may, however, be compared in closely related tissues or different metabolic conditions of a given tissue as relative magnitudes of maximum flux rates. Reference enzymes of constant proportion groups as well as of other enzymes which are representative of distinct metabolic pathways may be used in this sense for the evaluation of enzyme activity patterns. Selection of appropriate enzymes depends on the aim of the intended study, on a thorough knowledge of their individual properties, and on the possibility of measuring their maximum activity under reproducible conditions.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261673"}

It can be shown theoretically and experimentally that the maximum activities in vitro of enzymes that catalyse near-equilibrium reactions in vivo must be considerably higher than the maximum flux through that pathway. Consequently, the activities of such enzymes cannot provide quantitative information on the maximum possible flux through a pathway. On the other hand, the maximum activity of an enzyme that catalyses a non-equilibrium reaction in vivo may provide quantitative information. Such possibilities must be tested experimentally. Thus the maximum flux through a given metabolic pathway is measured (or calculated) and compared with the maximum in vitro activities of enzymes that catalyse non-equilibrium reactions in that pathway. Catalytic activities similar to the flux suggest that such enzymes may be useful as flux indicators. For example, phosphorylase or phosphofructokinase activities provide a quantitative indication of maximum flux through glycolysis-from-glycogen (i.e. anaerobic glycolysis); hexokinase activities provide a quantitative indication of maximum flux through glycolysis-from-glucose; 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase activities provide a quantitative indication of maximum flux through the citric acid cycle. The advamtages of the use of enzyme activities in this manner include simplicity, general applicability to pathways, tissues and animals, and minimum intervention (particularly in larger animals including the human species). One disadvantage is that the properties of the enzyme must be known in detail before an assay that gives maximum activities can be developed, and the properties of enzymes that catalyse non-equilibrium reactions may be complex. These considerations emphasize the dangers of quantitative interpretation of the maximum flux through pathways from 'near-equilibrium' enzymes or from 'non-equilibrium' enzymes whose properties have been inadequately studied.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261674"}

Quantitative studies in the 1960s established that the tissue disruption and enzyme loss which occurs when unfixed cryostat sections are incubated could be prevented with high concentrations of polyvinyl alcohol without inhibition of enzyme activity. This use of polymeric stabilizers has been largely confined to studies of 'soluble' dehydrogenases in tissue sections. However, optimum conditions for 'soluble' enzymes in cut sections may not be ideal for membrane-bound enzymes or for whole cells, where an over-stabilization of membranes can lead to restricted entry of reagents and thereby low activities. Lower concentrations, or other stabilizers such as Ficoll (a synthetic polysucrose) and collagen polypeptides, have been used in such cases. Suggested criteria for a tissue stabilizer are: (i) The stabilizer should be chemically inert, of defined and constant composition, and generally available; (ii) The tissue must remain structurally intact during the incubation, and the final preparation should look 'clean' and have the proper morphology; (iii) The component being assayed must remain inside the section, and not diffuse into the incubation medium.

We have not detected any significant relationship between blood platelet 5-HT re-uptake inhibition and therapeutic response to amitriptyline in depressed patients, although there is a significant correlation with plasma levels of the drug. It is interesting to note that nortriptyline, the major metabolite of amitriptyline, blocks the alpha-adrenoreceptor but the degree of blocking of this supersensitive receptor is significantly correlated to poor outcome.

Use of the tricyclic antidepressant drugs is the most common pharmacotherapeutic approach to the treatment of depression. It is a common clinical experience to find that a fair proportion of patients fail to show a satisfactory response and that others complain of side-effects. Important factors which influence this situation are the diagnostic criteria used to select patients for drug treatment, the dosage prescribed and individual compliance. Measurement of plasma drug concentrations has been proposed as a more rational way of increasing the efficacy of antidepressant medication and avoiding toxicity. A number of studies have shown a correlation between plasma concentrations of these drugs and clinical effects, but the relationship is far from simple. With amitriptyline and nortriptyline there is good evidence for a 'therapeutic window' within which maximum antidepressant action is obtained. Many patients being treated with these drugs have plasma levels outside recommended therapeutic ranges. Experience in our department has shown that there are a number of clinical situations where routine plasma level monitoring of selected antidepressants is of value: (1) inadequate clinical response; (2) side-effects/toxicity; (3) complicating medical conditions; (4) suspected poor compliance; and (5) long-term therapy.

Although there is no therapeutic range for any drug applicable to all patients, a more simple rational and effective approach to treatment is possible with the guidance of serum level monitoring. In new referrals, there is considerable potential for monotherapy, and the avoidance of polypharmacy and chronic toxicity. Reduction in polypharmacy in chronic patients is more difficult, but in many can be achieved with reduction in toxicity, and sometimes improved seizure control.

The practical value of measuring plasma concentrations is to optimize treatment in order to attain the best balance in each particular patient between wanted clinical therapeutic effects and unwanted adverse and side-effects. This increase in treatment efficacy can be concurrent--that is, the treatment is monitored and the dosage changed as necessary--or predictive, where the results of a test dose can be used to calculate the appropriate dosage. Wanted effects include: (1) the attainment of adequate drug concentrations for the minimum period of time necessary, as in the use of antibiotics; (2) the suppression of symptoms, as in the use of the benzodiazepines in anxiety states; (3) the use of drugs to improve function, e.g. levodopa in Parkinsonism; (4) drugs are used to prevent episodes of illness; and (5) complex suppression of symptoms, as with the antidepressives and antipsychotics. The biological alternatives to plasma level monitoring depend on establishing an empirical relationship between the putative monitor and the clinical response. Such measures avoid the problem of estimation of drug concentration at the receptor.

Many centrally acting drugs bind extensively to plasma proteins, particularly albumin. It is generally the free concentration rather than the total concentration which determines the intensity of pharmacological action and the distribution and rate of elimination of a drug. Measurement of the total plasma concentration may therefore give a false idea of the amount of active drug available. Furthermore, variation in the degree of binding from one subject to another, and displacement of drug molecules by a second drug, may complicate the interpretation of serum levels when both bound and free drug are measured together. The strict use of therapeutic ranges of serum levels may therefore be harmful when a larger than normal proportion of the drug is free. In theory, monitoring the free concentration would have advantages, but on a routine basis this is not practical at present for technical reasons. Cerebrospinal fluid is an ultrafiltrate of plasma but lumbar puncture for routine monitoring purposes cannot be justified.

The microinjection of transfer RNA into amphibian oocytes permits one to study under in vivo conditions the reactions that affect this important macromolecule. A comparative study has been carried out between the in vivo and in vitro specificity of the aminoacylation reacton. The results obtained show that modifications of the tRNA structure affect aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase recognition in the same fashion in both conditions. The in vivo aminoacylation was not affected by the presence of puromycin (0.5mM) or cycloheximide (0.1 mM) which completely inhibited oocyte protein synthesis. An interesting difference was obtained between the in vivo and in vitro aminoacylation of tRNA with regards to temperature requirements. While the in vivo reaction was optimal at 25 degrees and was totally inhibited at 37 degrees, the in vitro was optimal, at the latter temperature. The inhibition of the in vivo reaction at 37 degrees was not due to inactivation of the enzyme. The transfer of the amino acid moiety to nascent proteins was studied by measuring the transfer of radioactivity from injected (14C) phenylalanyl-tRNA into hot trichloroacetic acid precipitable material. It was found that 30% or more of the amino acid became incorporated into oocyte proteins and that this incorporation was due to direct transfer from the aminoacyl-tRNA and was inhibited by puromycin and cycloheximide.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261727"}

The two main patterns of inflammatory response in the placenta and its adnexae are: (1) amniotic infection, usually bacterial ascending, with acute chorioamnionitis and funisitis; (2) haematogenous villitis, usually viral, with early necrotizing lesions and vasculitis and, later, chronic infiltrates and obliterative vasculitis. In amniotic infection most cells in the exudate are maternal. These leucocytes participate in antibacterial defence of the amniotic cavity in conjunction with substances such as zinc polypeptide and lysozyme and may contribute directly to fetal defence. Immunoglobulins may be produced in the cord of placenta only in protracted lesions such as 'healed' funisitis. Individual variations in the resistance of the membranes to bacterial penetration are possible. In viral infections a massive multifocal production by plasmacytes of immunoglobulins M, G and A is seen in affected villi. The secretion of non-specific antiviral substances in the infected placenta is possible. In all affected villi there is an activation of fixed macrophages (Hofbauer cells) that remain partly 'immature', i.e. are lysozyme-negative. Multifocal lymphoplasmacytic villitis is uncommon and has helped to focus the diagnosis on prenatal infection. In contrast, non-specific lymphocytic villitis is common; since there is no morphological difference between cases known to be associated with an infection, e.g. varicella, and the others, many cases may well be due to silent infection, although a graft-versus-host reactions remains a distinct possibility.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261758"}

The frequency and duration of infectious illnesses in 408 pregnant rural women and 417 poor urban infants in Guatemala have been investigated, together with morbidity and mortality among the offspring of the rural women. Rural women suffered high rates of infection during the gestation period. Symptomatic illnesses, mainly acute respiratory infection and diarrhoeal disease, usually showed a higher incidence during the last months of pregnancy. Significant bacteriuria was identified in 21% of the women, though symptoms of urinary tract infection were found in about 25%. Vaginal infection was found in 38% of women at the beginning of pregnancy and in 79% at its end. Twelve per cent of women showed evidence of reactivated infections with cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus and Toxoplasma gondii. The neonatal mortality rate in the rural population was 37.7 per 1000 liveborn infants. Most deaths were among preterm babies. Significant bacteriuria was related to low birth weight. Morbidity in rural neonates was also high, but the illnesses were not severe and had a short duration. Neonatal morbidity in poor urban infants was also high. Breast-feeding had a protective effect: breast-fed rural and poor urban infants had a lower incidence of illness than urban babies who were not breast-fed. The influence of infection during pregnancy on the conceptus and some low-cost measures for reducing it are discussed. Measures for decreasing neonatal morbidity in rural and poor urban ureas are proposed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261759"}

In some cases the obstetrician can reduce the likelihood of premature rupture of the membranes by inserting a cervical suture. Where this has not been possible conservative management should be used to keep the fetus in utero before the 34th week and more active after this time. In trapartum infections can be reduced to a minimum by keeping the membranes intact during early labour, by the aggressive use of uterine stimulants to avoid prolonged labour, by exerting extreme care to avoid sepsis during pelvic examinations and internal monitoring, and by earlier use of Caesarean section.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261761"}

A number of maternal factors strongly influence the development and outcome of fetal infections. Severely undernourished mothers produce neonates with evidence of an immunoincompetence that persists into later childhood. Mothers who fast during pregnancy develop metabolic acidosis much more rapidly than non-pregnant women. The metabolic acidosis leads to high fetal and neonatal death rates from a variety of pre-existing disorders, including infections. Such metabolic acidosis also appears responsible for the excessive fetal and neonatal deaths associated with maternal urinary tract infections. Finally, coitus during pregnancy markedly increases both the frequency of bacterial infections of amniotic fluid and the mortality due to them. The effects are greatest at mid-pregnancy and gradually decrease to term.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261764"}

Amniotic fluid infections manifested by an inflammatory response in the extraplacental membranes and subchorionic plate of the placenta are a common phenomenon thought to be due in most cases to ascending bacterial infections via intact membranes. Fatal spread to the fetus is much less common and more likely to occur in underprivileged communities. The probable reasons are nutritional deprivation in the mother or both, leading to production of a liquor with diminished ability to suppress bacterial growth. Zinc is one component of the antibacterial system but liquor levels of zinc vary widely and inconsistently with antibacterial activity. Dietary supplementation with zinc did not improve antibacterial activity of liquors in a population with diminished liquor antibacterial activity and large number of fatal infections. Other factors in the genesis of amniotic fluid infections may be interference with normal defence mechanisms as a result of coitus in late pregnancy and vaginal infections with Trichomonas vaginalis. Socioeconomic factors may play a role apart from their association with maternal nutrition, through diminished hygiene associated with insufficient use of water and insufficient availability and use of medical facilities.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261765"}

This study describes the results of examination of blood cultures from infants born in a community with a high prevalence of fatal amniotic fluid infection. The incidence of first-week neonatal septicaemia was 5.5 per 1000 births. Septicaemia was detected in 38% within 12 hours and 75.6% within 72 hours of birth. The aetiological pattern of the septicaemia was similar to that of fatal amniotic fluid infections. The increase in mortality from septicaemia occurred in infants born after 34 weeks of gestation. Nearly 80% of the infections apparently occurred through intact membranes. Respiratory distress with or without radiological evidence of pneumonia was the only manifestation of septicaemia in most infants under four days of age. Low Apgar scores and multiple apnoeic episodes were more common in infants with septicaemia than in those without septicaemia. Neonatal jaundice with serum bilirubin in excess of 11 mg/dl was more common in septicaemic infants and indicated poor prognosis. Meningitis associated with septicaemia occurred in 3.8% and in all these infants the diagnosis of septicaemia was delayed beyond 72 hours. The results suggest that early recognition and treatment of antenatal bacterial infections may prevent mortality and morbidity from complications of septicaemia such as neonatal apnoea, meningitis and bilirubin encephalopathy.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261766"}

The levels of airborne dust and fluorides at the working places were related to the prevalence of chronic bronchitis (CB) symptoms, to the persistence of those symptoms during the five-year period, and to decrease of FEV1 values during that time.

II. Metabolic depletion of erythrocytes is not accompanied by a decrease of their sialic acid content during blood bank storage. Erythrocytes from human blood stored at 5 degrees C in anticoagulant-preservative solutions are considered, after a period from 21 to 24 days, unsuitable for transfusion. The nonviability of the cells appears due to metabolic impairment accompanied by a change of the biophysical properties of the cell but surprisingly not to a decrease of sialic acid of the membrane. The absence of proteolysis can be attributed to calcium chelation and to the stable levels of plasma protease inhibitors throughout the storage period. In fact, when erythrocytes are incubated for several days at 5 degrees C in protein-free media, release of sialopeptides from the membrane increases slowly and steadily, particularly if the medium is without glucose and adenine but contains divalent cations. Moreover, this phenomenon is strikingly amplified when incubation in protein-free media is carried out at 37 degrees C and once the ATP level has fallen below 5% of its initial value.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261814"}

In contrast, whilst no consistent patterns were seen in their concentration in five nephrectomized fetuses the levels were 2-10 times higher than the control values (0.5-10 micrograms/ml) at all stages. The plasma concentration of 5 beta-pregnane-3 alpha,20 alpha-diol was less perturbed by nephrectomy and only showed a slight increase over control values (0.2-0.5 micrograms/ml). Three sham-operated fetuses which aborted following infection also showed increased plasma concentrations of 5 beta-pregnane-3 beta,20 beta-diol and -20 alpha-diol, similar to the nephrectomized fetuses. It is postulated that high levels of circulating progesterone metabolites may reflect induced increases in adrenal endocrine activity culminating in premature activation of those changes in adrenal function which trigger parturition.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261983"}

A single intracisternal injection of 0.4 ml of 1.25 and 2.5 percent gentamicin sulfate with preservative to healthy adult rabbits caused acute respiratory paralysis and severe seizure activity initially and paralysis of the limbs subsequently. In the white matter of the upper cervical spinal cord, multiple, minute, disseminated, spongy lesions were observed. They consisted of lysis of axis cylinders, edematous dilatation of myelin sheaths, and loss of astroglia and interfascicular oligodendroglia. Axonal end-bulbs formed at the periphery of the lesions. Clinically and morphologically, 0.025 and 0.25 percent gentamicin sulfate solution did not produce myelopathy. The spinal lesions were distributed differently from those of other chemical myelopathies in that they developed in the deeper white matter with sparing of marginal myelinated fibers. Circumscribed high concentrations and gentamicin, and vulnerability of myelinated axis cylinders and interfascicular oligondendroglia to gentamicin may be the main factors causing these lesions. When gentamicin sulfate without preservative was injected, neutrophil leukocyte infiltration occurred actively in the spongy lesions. In the cervical spinal ganglia some nerve cells underwent cytoplasmic vacuolation. In control animals a single intracisternal injection of saline or preservative did not result in the production of these lesions.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261984"}

Adult cats survived left lateral funiculotomy 1 to 153 days. The pericruciate cortex was studied electron microscopically in these as well as sham-operated and unoperated animals. Ten days after surgery Betz cells of the right pericruciate cortex displayed disaggregation of cytoplasmic ribosomes; random dispersal and degranulation of the normally compact arrays of cisterns of rough ER; in some cells perinuclear and peripheral disposition of remaining Nissl bodies; retispersion of the Golgi apparatus; and, uncommonly, neurofilamentous hyperplasia. Fourteen days postoperatively cytoplasmic ribosomes were largely regrouped in rosette arrangements and Golgi membranes were evenly distributed in the cytoplasm. Further reversion of the ER toward a normal appearance occurred 28 days postoperatively but substantial perikaryal atrophy had supervened in many neurons by 49-153 days after surgery. Evidence of nerve cell death was not found. Concentric membranous arrays derived from ER and associated with autophagic bodies and mitochondria were identified in dendrites of normals and cats that had been operated upon, perhaps more frequently contralateral to the spinal operation. Electron-dense and electron-lucent degenerative changes in dendrites also occurred, especially early after operation. Degenerating myelin sheaths were detected in the pericruciate cortex of animals that had been operated upon and sometimes were captured in the process of phagocytosis by oligodendrocytes as well as astrocytes and microglia. The long-term persistence of axotomized Betz cells, albeit in an atrophic state, and the reversibility of some of the cytologic responses to axon injury suggest that these neurons may retain a capacity for axon regeneration that could be mobilized, as by pharmacologic means.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/261986"}

In larger programs, it will most likely be necessary to use the computerized system. However, the author has found that implementation costs have not been great, and the system has certainly been worthwhile in light of the dimensions that have been added to the program. The computer MIS that has been developed is completely modularized from the perspective that either one or all modules may be used. Small programs that need only demographic data can use selected aspects of the system without having to pay for or use the rest. Those who only need counseling information can use just that, and those who only wish to have economic activity can also be selective. The strength of this MIS is based upon the fact that it is completely flexible; it is cost effective, and can be used by programs of any size. Finally, use of a sophisticated MIS in drug treatment programs adds a professional facet to service delivery which has long been missing in the drug abuse field.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262074"}

However, alone or in combination, these variables did not relate significantly to need for or amount of shed blood uptake prior to sacrifice. Neither hepatic glycogen depletion nor uncoupled hepatic mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation alone accounted for hypoglycemia. The genesis of hypoglycemia was determined by the occurrence of both these events in either sequence. When hepatic mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation became uncoupled, the blood glucose concentration and hepatic glycogen content were linearly related (r = 0.94).

Improved surgical techniques and judicial use of available antibiotics have reduced the number of postoperative complications over the past decade. However, septic and hemorrhagic shock occur all too frequently, and each carries with it an appreciable morbidity and mortality. Endotoxins and hemorrhage are both known to suppress the phagocytic activity of the reticuloendothelial system (RES). On the other hand, zymosan, a yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) cell wall preparation administered intravenously, results in temporary RES hyperplasia and increased phagocytic activity. Dogs were pretreated with zymosan to determine the degree of RES stimulation and protection against endotoxin and hemorrhagic shock attainable. Twenty-five dogs received intravenous zymosan (10 mg/kg) on days 1, 2, and 3. Another 24 dogs served as controls. On day four, one-half the animals in each group received E coli endotoxin (1.5 mg/kg) intravenously. The other animals underwent two hours of hemorrhagic shock at a mean blood pressure of 40 mm Hg. Seventy-two hour survival was as follows: Endotoxin treated, 66.7% (8/12); endotoxin control, 27% (3/11); hemorrhagic treated, 53.3% (8/15); and hemorrhagic control, 28.6% (4/14).

INDO (5 mg/kg) was infused IV prior to MI, and the results were compared to vehicle-treated and sham-operated dogs. INDO induced a slight hypertension after MI. Additionally, INDO attenuated the decline in coronary blood flow in the non-ischemic myocardium after MI. Myocardial lysosomes (biopsied three hours post-MI) were more labile in ischemic than in nonischemic tissue, and INDO had a stabilizing effect on lysosomes from ischemic tissue. Plasma activity of cathepsin was increased following MI, and INDO attenuated this increase. In the myocardium (biopsies three hours post-MI) prostaglandin A + E levels were suppressed 60% in both ischemic and nonischemic tissue with INDO treatment; prostaglandin F2 alpha levels were lower with INDO treatment but not significantly so. These results suggest that INDO has a stabilizing effect on lysosomes in vivo, possibly involving an endogenous prostaglandin mechanism, and this protective effect may attenuate lysosomal damage to the cardiovascular system during MI.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262078"}

Venous compliance was determined by occluding the venous outflow catheters; venous flow and pressure drop were used to calculate resistance. Individual measurements were made for the superior (SVC) and inferior vena caval (IVC) beds. During hypotension, compliance increased equally in the SVC and IVC; following reinfusion, IVC compliance was consistently lower than SVC compliance. Resistance of the sVC system increased slightly more rapidly during early hypotension than did that of the IVC, but SVC resistance then decreased and remained significantly below that of the IVC system throughout the posthypotension period. These results are interpreted as indicating a different response of the two vascular beds, particularly an increase in IVC arteriolar resistance with a decrease in venous tone. To the extent that the splanchnic bed contributes to the IVC system changes, they are contrary to the concept of a maintained venous tone and decreased arteriolar tone after hemorrhagic shock.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262081"}

Animals were killed at various intervals, and pancreatic tissue was sampled for morphological study. No differences were seen between experimental and control animals by light microscopy. The main subcellular alteration seen using these models was the formation of numerous autophagic vacuoles.

The triad of gastric mucosal ischemia and lumenal acid and bile is known to be ulcerogenic. However, the explanation for progressive mucosal injury after resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock is not known, because ischemia does not persist. To test the hypothesis that persistent pathophysiologic arteriovenous shunting is the cause of progressive mucosal injury after shock, we studied in vivo canine gastric mucosal oxygenation and transmembrane potential difference during and after one hour of hemorrhagic shock with and without topical acid (160 mM HCl) and taurocholate (1 mM) in the mucosal bathing solution. Although systemic blood pressure and total gastric blood flow returned to normal after shock in all groups, only the group with topical acid and taurocholate developed mucosal erosions and had persistent hypoxia and inhibition of potential difference in surface epithelial cells. We conclude that pathophysiologic arteriovenous shunting persists in the superficial part of the gastric mucosa after shock. It is tempting to speculate that shunting may replace ischemia in the ulcerogenic triad during the postresuscitation phase of injury.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262088"}

Terms such as \"insulin resistance\" and \"glucose intolerance\" applied to shock-induced hyperglycemia suggest that this state may prejudice survival. However, our data indicate that posthemorrhage hyperglycemia improves short-term survival. Rabbits, either fed until the experiment or fasted for 24 hours, were shocked by rapid removal of 25% of their blood volume (BV) measured by 131IHSA. During the next 60 minutes, blood pressure (BP) was recorded, and the following variables were measured every 10 minutes: plasma volume (PV); arterial and venous plasma osmolality (PO), glucose, lactate, Na, K and hematocrit. Other fasted animals studied similarly received short intravenous pulses of hypertonic xylose after bleeding. The PO of fed animals, who all survived for 60 minutes rose to an extent accounted for by rises in glucose and lactate. A significant PV fluid gain was maintained for 60 minutes. The fasted animals, 42% of whom died before 60 minutes, had a flat glucose curve with a correspondingly small rise in PO. The PV fluid balance, after an initial small gain, became negative. Although a lower blood pressure in fasted rabbits was probably due to lack of PV refill, death resulted from hyperkalemia. Poor tolerance of fasted animals to shock is not attributable only to less glucose for energy metabolism, because when they received xylose, homeostatic features of fed animals were restored. The data suggest that, immediately after hemorrhage, glucose acts as a nonpermeant solute drawing fluid into the circulation.

Type II alveolar cells can be isolated and partially purified from adult rat lung by a series of steps that includes enzymatic digestion of the lung with trypsin and separation of cells on a discontinuous albumin density gradient. The yield of the isolated type II cells depends on the supplier and the housing of the rats used to prepare the cells. With specific pathogen-free rats housed in a laminar flow hood, the yield was 20.3 x 10(6) cells per rat, of which 50 per cent were type II cells. With rats from 2 other suppliers and no special housing, the yields were 8.8 and 8.3 x 10(6) cells per rat, of which 67 and 65 per cent were type II cells. The ultrastructural appearance of the isolated cells was similar to that of cells from intact lung, except for some dilatation of the endoplasmic reticulum and the perinuclear space. Most cells (92 +/- 5 per cent) excluded the vital dye, trypan blue. The cells consumed O2 at the rate of 76 +/- 12 nmole per 10(6) cells per hour and released only 5.7 +/- 2.0 per cent of their lactate dehydrogenase, a cytoplasmic enzyme, into the medium after 1 hour of incubation. The isolated type II cells contained disaturated phosphatidylcholine, a major component of purified surface-active material. The cells, however, had a low glucose utilization compared to their O2 consumption, which may indicate an abnormality in the metabolism of glucose. This population of cells could be further purified to 89 per cent type II cells by unit gravity velocity sedimentation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262096"}

Symptoms on exposure were independent of age and length of employment. Cough and wheezing on exposure were more common among smokers than nonsmokers (P less than 0.025).

Measurements of lung ventilatory function, as well as diffusing capacity, correlated significantly with age and smoking habits, but not with length of employment. Thirty-seven per cent of the workers had an abnormal mean forced expiratory flow during the middle half of the forced vital capacity (47 per cent of smokers and 13 per cent of nonsmokers), and 34 per cent had an abnormal maximal expiratory flow after exhalation of 50 per cent of the forced vital capacity (40 per cent of smokers and 13 per cent of nonsmokers), whereas only 13 per cent had an abnormal ratio of 1-sec forced expiratory volume to forced vital capacity. There was no correlation between precipitins to fungi, bacteria, grain, or grain dust antigens and acute or chronic respiratory symptoms, lung function, or grain fever. There was, however, a significant correlation between cutaneous reactivity to grain dust and wheezing on exposure (P less than 0.02).

Furthermore, there was no significant correlation between these 2 characteristics of the bronchial response to carbachol. The mean dose-response curves of the asthmatic and the normal subjects were widely divergent, indicating that the asthmatic subjects differed from normal subjects more in terms of bronchial reactivity than in bronchial sensitivity.

The absorption of theophylline was most rapid from the elixir, whereas that from Marax was faster than that from Tedral. The peak concentrations of theophylline after administration of the 3 oral dosage forms were in the order, elixir greater than Marax greater than Tedral, however, the time to achieve peak concentration was highly variable and did not differ significantly among the 3 products. On the basis of area under the serum concentration-time curves, the absorption of theophylline from the elixir and from Marax was essentially complete. The area under the serum concentration curve after administration of Tedral was significantly less than that after intravenous aminophylline, elixir, and Marax; however, when the individual areas under the concentration curves were adjusted for intrasubject variation in elimination rate constant, the mean area under the concentration curve after Tedral no longer differed significantly from those of the intravenous and other two oral products. A large degree of intersubject variation in the oral absorption of theophylline was observe din this study. Therefore, in addition to the well-documented, large individual variation in the serum clearance of theophylline, intersubject differences in the absorption of the drug is another factor that complicates proper adjustment of the dose in oral theophylline therapy.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262107"}

Alveolar wall from the lung of aging humans shows a progressive decrease in maximal extensibility, which should follow an increase in resting tissue length rather than a reduction in maximal length. An increase in resting tissue length is compatible with the change in lung volumes and reduction in elastic recoil that occurs with time. A model of the lung was used to compare the effects of a change in resting tissue length in diminishing elastic recoil with that of a reduction in the volume density of the elastic elements (emphysema). Such differentiation is important in selecting an animal that may model the aging or emphysematous lung. In the rat, rabbit, and horse, alveolar walls show no decrease in maximal extensibility with age. In the male monkey (M. nemestrina and M. mulatta) between birth and 2.4 years there is a decrease in maximal extensibility that lacks significance for the limited age span examined. On the other hand, the energy loss in length-tension cycling (hysteresis) of alveolar wall increases in aging humans, diminishes in rats and rabbits, and shows little change in horses and monkeys. The breaking force of alveolar wall increases with age in rats and rabbits but does not change significantly in the other species. Of these species, the monkey promises a better model of the age-related changes in maximal extensibility of alveolar wall. A measure of maximal extensibility can distinguish the effects of dilatation of air spaces from those of destruction of alveolar wall in causing loss of lung elastic recoil.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262109"}

A computer-stimulation study has been performed to determine how the performance characteristics of quality-control rules are affected by the presence of a between-run component of variation, the choice of control limits (calculated from within-run vs. total standard deviations), and the shape of the error distribution. When a between-run standard deviation (Sb) exists and control limits are calculated from the total standard deviation (St, which includes Sb as well as the within-run standard deviation, Sw), there is generally a loss in ability to detect analytical disturbances or errors. With control limits calculated from Sw, there is generally an increase in the level of false rejections. The presence of non-gaussian error distribution appears to have considerably less effect. It can be recommended that random error be controlled by use of a chi-square or range-control rule, with control limits calculated from Sw. Optimal control of systematic errors is difficult when Sb exists. An effort should be made to reduce Sb, and this will lead to increased ability to detect analytical errors.

The least-squares method is frequently used to calculate the slope and intercept of the best line through a set of data points. However, least-squares regression slopes and intercepts may be incorrect if the underlying assumptions of the least-squares model are not met. Two factors in particular that may result in incorrect least-squares regression coefficients are: (a) imprecision in the measurement of the independent (x-axis) variable and (b) inclusion of outliers in the data analysis. We compared the methods of Deming, Mandel, and Bartlett in estimating the known slope of a regression line when the independent variable is measured with imprecision, and found the method of Deming to be the most useful. Significant error in the least-squares slope estimation occurs when the ratio of the standard deviation of measurement of a single x value to the standard deviation of the x-data set exceeds 0.2. Errors in the least-squares coefficients attributable to outliers can be avoided by eliminating data points whose vertical distance from the regression line exceed four times the standard error the estimate.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262186"}

Measurements in the presence of specific M or B subunit-inhibitory antibodies indicated that 93% of the activity consisted of B-isomers. From these experiments we conclude that the abnormal CK is of BB nature. Gel filtration and immunoglobulin precipitation showed that the CK-BB was complexed with IgG. Normal CK-BB, when mixed with the patient's serum, was converted to macro CK-BB. In vitro stability of 37 degrees C of the abnormal enzyme was much greater than that of normal BB and MM isoenzymes. Following this finding, we then assessed 310 sera, received for enzyme assay by the clinical laboratory, for electrophoretically abnormally migrating CK isoenzymes.

The Hypertension Detection and Follow-up Program (HDFP), a national collaborative study, screened approximately 159,000 people for high blood pressure in 14 communities between 1973 and 1974. Results show that detection, treatment, and control of high blood pressure has improved considerably since the 1960s. Whereas in the past about half of all hypertensives knew they had high blood pressure, half of those detected were under treatment, and half of those under treatment had their high blood pressure under control, the corresponding percentages in the 14 HDFP communities a decade later indicate that 75% of hypertensives were detected, 72% of those were under treatment, and 70% of those under treatment had a diastolic blood pressure under 95 mm Hg. While the differences in prevalence of hypertension are between races rather than sexes (with black individuals in some age groups being about twice as likely as white individuals to have hypertension), the differences in detection and treatment rate are largely between sexes and not between races. Women are considerable more likely to be aware of their hypertension, to be under treatment for it, and to have their high blood pressure under control.

Noncompliance with follow-up is a serious problem in the management of hypertension. A retrospective cohort study examined dropout rates and their determinants among 249 randomly selected outpatients with essential hypertension from the medical clinic of an urban teaching hospital. Data were abstracted from hospital records and a subset of dropouts was interviewed. A lifetable analysis revealed that patients who were initiating therapy or who had been under therapy for less than six months had a 50% chance of remaining in care two years later, while 70% of patients who had been under therapy for more than six months at entry were still in care after this period. Patients who were less severely ill by several indicators were the most likely to drop out. It is hypothesized that the low perceived severity of illness, coupled with the costs and inconvenience of care and the lack of physician enthusiasm for the treatment of mild hypertension leads to non-compliance with follow-up.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262242"}

Information theory is used to survey the relative amounts of information provided by photometric and microscopic measurements. Then in model exploratory experiments, cell size and shape and changes therein are determined both by microscopy and by photometry for spherical and spheroidal cells. Scattering theory is used to calculate photometrically observed light from cell parameters. It is found that if certain other appropriate information about the morphological property of interest is available, then visible light photometry is the preferred method for obtaining quantitative information. It has good absolute sensitivity (0.01-0.10 micrometers resolution), its results are relatively unaffected by sample heterogeneity, it is nondestructive and compatible with many other techniques, it requires no sample preparation, and it provides its information in real time.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262375"}

To test our present quantitative knowledge of nicotinic transmission, we reconstruct the postsynaptic conductance change that results after a presynaptic nerve terminal liberates a quantum of acetylcholine (ACh) into the synaptic cleft. The theory assumes that ACh appears suddenly in the cleft and that is subsequent fate is determined by radial diffusion, by enzymatic hydrolysis, and by binding to receptors. Each receptor has one channel and two ACh binding sites; the channel opens when both sites are occupied and the rate-limiting step id the binding and dissociation of the second ACh molecule. The calculations reproduce the experimentally measured growth phase (200 microseconds), peak number of open channels (2,000), and exponential decay phase. The time constant of the decay phase exceeds the channel duration by approximately equal to 20%. The normal event is highly localized: at the peak, two-thirds of the open channels are within an area of 0.15 micrometer 2. This represents 75% of the available channels within this area. The model also simulates voltage and temperature dependence and effects of inactivating esterase and receptors.

With computer simulation we examined the extent to which current theories and experimental data explain function of single microperfused superficial Henle's loops in rats. In the model standard phenomenological equations describe transport; two sets of transport parameters labeled rat and rabbit were taken from published experiments; Michaelis-Menten kinetics in the ascending thick limb were adjusted arbitrarily; tubular radius is either constant or depends on luminal pressure with compliance based on experimental observations; the interstitium is an infinite sink with salt and urea concentrations constant in the cortex and exponentially increasing in the outer medulla; concentrations resemble those found in hydropenic or saline diuretic rats. The following predictions were obtained. The model with rabbit parameters does not recirculate urea and will not operate with high medullary urea concentrations; with rat parameters too much urea recirculates an the results of perfusion with equilibrium solution are not reproduced. Using a compromise between rat and rabbit parameters, the model reproduces water absorption, salt reabsorption, and urea recirculation as observed in vivo in rat loops perfused at 5-40 nl/min. It also simulates perfusion with saline, equilibrium solution, saline plus furosemide, and 300 mM mannitol. When the model includes a short early distal segment, effluent salt concentration reaches a minimum at a 15 nl/min perfusion rate as observed in vivo; however, concentration at the macula densa is a monotonically increasing function of flow. When permeation rate is a function of wall surface area and thickness a better fit to experimental results is produced. However, the effect is small: water absorption alters by 4% or less and effluent salt concentration is reduced by up to 10% at low perfusion rates. Comparison of rigid and compliant loops shows no relationship between transit time per se and reabsorption.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262377"}

Synchronized V79 Chinese hamster cells, pulse-labeled with 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdUrd), show marked changes in the sensitivity to near-ultraviolet light during the cell cycle. Cells are least sensitive during the remainder of the S-phase after the BrdUrd pulse. They become maximally sensitive in the next cell cycle when the BrdUrd-labeled DNA presumably serves as the template for replication. This is followed by a return to relative insensitivity during the remainder of the S-phase, the increase in survival does not occur until DNA synthesis progresses beyond the time when the DNA made during the second pulse serves as a template. Furthermore, cells in the resistant phases of the cell cycle are sensitized by 1-2 mM caffeine. Survival curves are shown for the various cell ages of interest and are discussed in relation to the observed changes in functional repair capacity. The data support the hypothesis that lesions in the BrdUrd-containing DNA are effectively repaired after semiconservative replication. The data indicate that saturation of repair capacity and not target multiplicity is responsible for the appearance of a shoulder on the survival curves.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262378"}

These responses present a critical check upon the validity of the HH model for electrical activity across squid axon membrane. It is shown that when a constant current is applied such that a stable equilibrium and rhythmic firing are present, the following predictions are inherent in the HH system of equations: (a) Small instantaneous voltage perturbations to the axon given at points along its firing spike result in phase resetting curves (when new phase versus old phase is plotted) with an average slope of 1. (b) A larger voltage perturbation (from certain points along the firing spike) results in the permanent cessation of periodic firing, with membrane voltage rapidly approaching the equilibrium value. (c) A still larger perturbation yields phase resetting curves with an average slope equal to 0. These predictions, coupled with Tasaki's experimental demonstration that squid axons in excellent condition do give repetitive firing under constant current, provide a critical test of the validity of the HH model.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262379"}

A comparison between resistive-force theory and slender-body theory. This paper investigates the accuracy of the resistive-force theory (Gray and Hancock method) which is commonly used for hydrodynamic analysis of swimming flagella. We made a comparison between the forces, bending moments, and shear moments calculated by resistive-force theory and by the more accurate slender-body theory for large-amplitude, planar wave forms computed for a flagellar model. By making an upward empirical adjustment, by about 35%, of the classical drag coefficient values used in the resistive-force theory calculations, we obtained good agreement between the distributions of the forces and moments along the length of the flagellum predicted by the two methods when the flagellum has no cell body attached. After this adjustment, we found the rate of energy expenditure calculated by the two methods for the few typical test cases to be almost identical. The resistive-force theory is thus completely satisfactory for use in analysis of mechanisms for the control of flagellar bending, at the current level of sophistication of this analysis. We also examined the effects of the presence of a cell body attached to one end of the flagellum, which modifies the flow field experienced by the flagellum. This interaction, which is not considered in resistive-force theory, is probably insignificant for small cell bodies, such as the heads of simple spermatozoa, but for larger cell bodies, or cell bodies that have large-amplitude motions transverse to the swimming direction, use of slender-body theory is required for accurate analysis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262381"}

Syncytial tissues consist of many cells whose intracellular spaces are electrically coupled one to another. Such tissues typically include narrow, tortuous extracellular space and often have specialized membranes at their outer surface. We derive differential equations to describe the potentials induced when a sinusoidal or steady current is applied to the intracellular space with a microelectrode. We derive solutions for spherical preparations with isotropic properties or with a particular anisotropy in effective extracellular and intracellular resistivities. Solutions are presented in an approximate form with a simple physical interpretation. The leading term in the intracellular potential describes an \"isopotential\" cell in which there is no spatial variation of intracellular potential. The leading term in the extracellular potential, and thus the potential across the inner membranes, varies with radial position, even at zero frequency. The next term of the potentials describes the direct effects of the point source of current and, for the parameters given here, acts as a series resistance producing a large local potential drop essentially independent of frequency.

The electrical properties of the crystalline lens of the frog eye are measured with stochastic currents applied with a microelectrode near the center of the preparation and potential recorded just under the surface. The stochastic signals are decomposed by Fourier analysis into sinusoidal components, and the impedance is determined from the ratio of mean cross power to input power. The data are fit by an electrical model that includes two paths for current flow: one through the cytoplasm, gap junctions, and outer membrane; the other through inner membranes and the extracellular space between lens fibers. The electrical properties of the structures of the lens which appear as circuit components in the model are determined by the fit to the data. The resistivity of the extracellular space within the lens is comparable to the resistivity of Ringer. The outer membrane has a normal resistance of 5 kohm . cm(2) but large capacitance of 10 muF/cm(2), probably because it represents the properties of several layers of fibers. The inner membranes have properties reminiscent of artificial lipid bilayers: they have high membrane resistance, 2.2 megohm . cm(2), and low specific capacitance, 0.8 muF/cm(2). There is so much membrane within the lens, however, that the sum of the current flow across all the inner membranes is comparable to that across the outer surface.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262384"}

Isothermal and isotopic studies of cytoplasmic sodium, potassium, and water. The intracellular reference phase (RP) method and ultra-low temperature micro-dissection were used for isothermal and isotopic phase distribution studies of Na(+), K(+), and water in amphibian oocyte cytoplasm. One-third of the cytoplasmic water is available as solvent for [(3)H]sucrose. This fraction, designated c1, quantitatively coincides with the water volume in which Na(+) and K(+) are freely diffusible. Two-thirds of the cytoplasmic water is inaccessible to sucrose and is designated c2. The Na(+) and K(+) associated with c2 are extremely slowly exchanging (bound) and at different concentrations than in c1. The cations in c1 are in mass-action equilibria with those in c2, each described by an equation of the formC(c) (i) = C(c) (1) (i) + C(c) (2) (i) = q(i).C(RP) (i) + (max)C(c) (2) (i).f(C(RP) (i)in which C(c) (i) is the cytoplasmic Na(+) or K(+) concentration, C(c) (1) (i) is the free, and C(c) (2) (i) the bound cation concentration averaged over the cytoplasmic water. q(i) is the fractional free solute space, C(RP) (i) the RP concentration, (max)C(c) (2) (i) the concentration of binding sites, and the function f is satisfied by the Langmuir isotherm. Numerical values for the variables of the isotherm are determined. Activity coefficients are calculated from RP data and provide a basis for generalizing the oocyte results to other cells. The conclusion is drawn that both c1 and c2 are widely distributed in cells, and that cellular ionic activities involve two distinct systems: the cell-membrane system and an adsorbed water ion-exchange-like buffering system. Alternative explanations for the two-component cytoplasm are considered.

Na+ transients in frog skin. We introduce a general network thermodynamic method for compartmental analysis which uses a compartmental model of sodium flows through frog skin as an illustrative example (Huf and Howell, 1974a). We use network thermodynamics (Mikulecky et al., 1977b) to formulate the problem, and a circuit simulation program (ASTEC 2, SPICE2, or PCAP) for computation. In this way, the compartment concentrations and net fluxes between compartments are readily obtained for a set of experimental conditions involving a square-wave pulse of labeled sodium at the outer surface of the skin. Qualitative features of the influx at the outer surface correlate very well with those observed for the short circuit current under another similar set of conditions by Morel and LeBlanc (1975). In related work, the compartmental model is used as a basis for simulation of the short circuit current and sodium flows simultaneously using a two-port network (Mikulecky et al., 1977a, and Mikulecky et al., A network thermodynamic model for short circuit current transients in frog skin. Manuscript in preparation; Gary-Bobo et al., 1978). The network approach lends itself to computation of classic compartmental problems in a simple manner using circuit simulation programs (Chua and Lin, 1975), and it further extends the compartmental models to more complicated situations involving coupled flows and non-linearities such as concentration dependencies, chemical reaction kinetics, etc.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262387"}

Sodium and potassium conductances were distributed so that the surface and cleft membranes had similar channel density. Assuming that the model is appropriate, sodium current (and conductance) measured in the voltage clamp is grossly underestimated because of loss of voltage control of the cleft membrane. Under these conditions a value for g Na of about 15-20 mmho/cm2 of actual membrane is consistent with the experimental measurements of Dudel and Rüdel (1970. Pfluegers Arch. Eur. J.

Intermediate and slow currents (slow inward current and potassium current) appear to be accurately measured under the model conditions, despite some voltage nonuniformity within the cleft.

We confirm its mathematical form as given by Cole (1965). When the membrane-soluble ions are strongly adsorbed, an additional, purely exponential transient of much larger time constant is calculated, with a time dependence identical to that of the translocation of adsorbed ions.

Improved alternative for the equivalent circuit. A two-port for coupled salt and current flow is created by using the network thermodynamic approach in the same manner as that for coupled solute and volume flow (Mikulecky et al., 1977b; Mikulecky, 1977). This electrochemical two-port has distinct advantages over the equivalent circuit representation and overcomes difficulties pointed out by Finkelstein and Mauro (1963). The electrochemical two-port is used to produce a schematic diagram of the coupled flows through a tissue. The network is superimposable on the tissue morphology and preserves the physical qualities of the flows and forces in each part of an organized structure (e.g., an epithelium). The topological properties are manipulated independently from the constitutive (flow-force) relations. The constitutive relations are chosen from a number of alternatives depending on the detail and rigor desired. With the topology and constitutive parameters specified, the steady-state behavior is simulated with a network simulation program. By using capacitance to represent the filling and depletion of compartments, as well as the traditional electrical capacitances, time-dependent behavior is also simulated. Nonlinear effects arising from the integration of equations describing local behavior (e.g., the Nernst-Planck equations) are dealt with explicitly.

We have used a capacitor microphone calorimeter to measure rapid enthalpy changes that occur when bacteriorhodopsin-containing membrane fragments are excited with short flashes of light. We resolved the enthalpy changes into three phases. At about 100 microsecond after the flash, the bacteriorhodopsins converted into metastable states have an enthalpy about 15-20 kcal mol-1 greater than the enthalpy before excitation. Some of this energy (approximately 10 kcal) is then released to the surroundings as the membrane fragments release protons to the solution. After proton release and before proton rebinding, a large amount of heat is released to the surroundings, equivalent to about 40-45 kcal/mol of bacteriorhodopsin reacting. At this point the energy of the system is about 35 kcal/mol less than it was before the flash; i.e., the system has released all of the energy of the photon (49 kcal/E) plus an additional 35 kcal/mol. Nevertheless, the free energy of the system must still be greater than it was originally, because relaxation to the original state occurs spontaneously. An entropy decrease of at least 125 cal/mol per deg is required to compensate for the heat release. An entropy decrease of this magnitude implies a major increase in molecular order in the purple membrane.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262392"}

The inward sodium current in cardiac muscle is difficult to study by voltage clamp methods, so various indirect experimental measures have been used to obtain insight into its characteristics. These methods depend on the relationship between maximal upstroke velocity of the action potential (Vmax) and the sodium current (INa), usually defined in terms of the Hodgkin-Huxley model. These relationships were explored using an adaptation of this model to cardiac Purkinje fibers. In general Vmax corresponded to INa, and it could be used to determine the relationship of membrane potential to GNa, and h infinity. The results, however, depended on the method of stimulation of the action potential, and an optimal stimulation method was determined. A commonly used experimental technique called \"membrane responsiveness\" was shown to distort seriously the properties of steady-state gating inactivation that is supposed to measure. Estimation of the changes in maximal sodium conductance, such as those produced by tetrodotoxin (TTX), would be accurately measured. Some experimental results have indicated a voltage-dependent effect of TTX. Characteristics of the measures of TTX effect under those conditions were illustrated. In summary, calculations with a model of the cardiac Purkinje fiber action potential provide insight into the accuracy of certain experimental methods using maximal upstroke velocity as a measure of INa, and cast doubt on other experimental methods, such as membrane responsiveness.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262397"}

Within the 10 ps-0.45 ns period of time over which our experiments were conducted, the absorbance changes in the Soret and Q bands for MbCO and MbO2 correspond to the conventional long-term, steady-state deoxymyoglobin difference spectra (Mb-MbCO and Mb-MbO2), as determined by comparison of isosbestic, maximum, and minimum points. In addition, MbCO exhibits a decay to a steady state in the Soret band (monitored at 440 nm). The onset of the decay immediately follows photodissociation and has a rate of (8 +/- 3) X 10(9) s-1 (tau = 125 +/- 50 ps). During the 10 ps-0.45 ns observation window, relaxation is not seen for MbO2 in the Soret band, nor is relaxation observed in the Q band for either MbCO or MbO2. We conclude from these results that the steady state that we observed for MbCO and MbO2 is most likely the stable form of deoxymyoglobin, and the relaxational differences between MbCO and MbO2 observed in the Soret band indicate that the electronic destabilization after ligand detachment is very different for these molecules.

To detect the change in the capacitive component during the action potential, we performed transient admittance measurements at lower frequencies. However, the frequency range of the measurements was restricted because of the short duration of the normal action potential. In addition, a change in the inductive component obscured the low frequency behavior of the capacitance. To use wider frequency range and simplify the system by eliminating the inductive component, the potassium current was blocked by tetraethyl ammonium, and the increase in the capacitive component was reinvestigated during the long action potential. The admittance change under this condition was found to be mostly capacitive, and conductance change was very small. The increase in the capacitive component was from 1.0 to 1.23 muF/cm2.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262409"}

Using a method they developed, Stamatoff and Krimm (1976) have phased swelling data from nerve myelin. Although most phases agree with those I determined previously, there are a few differences. In this letter the two different phasings, theirs and my own, are used to compute the corresponding electron-density profiles, which are then closely compared. For both phasings, small differences are seen in the membrane profile at different degrees of swelling. The explanation that these differences are due simply to errors in measuring intensity is shown to be quite improbable; thus the differences indicate a real change in the profile. It follows that the assumption of a constant membrane profile appears to be invalid in the case of myelin swelling. The differences therefore are assumed to indicate a real change in the profile. It is shown that this change can be attributed consistently to interdigitation of protein molecules at the surfaces of neighboring membranes, while the membrane structure itself remains unchanged. In this case, valid phases still can be determined by swelling, but the phases determined by Stamatoff and Krimm are not valid.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262410"}

The nonexponential phosphorescence decay of a highly folded form of poly-riboadenylic acid (poly rA) with noncovalently bound dye is explained by a novel application of a well-known theory of electronic excitation transfer based on the Förster mechanism. This theory, originally used to describe singlet-singlet energy transfer from donor molecules to an acceptor in a solution, is here applied to the transfer of triplet excitation from the adenine (in poly rA) to the singlet manifold of either of the bound dyes, ethidium bromide or proflavine. New experimental data are presented that allow straight-forward theoretical interpretation. These data fit the form predicted by the theory, U(t) exp(-Bt1/2), where U(t) is the decay of the poly rA phosphorescence in the absence of dye, for a range of relative concentrations of either dye. The self-consistency of these theoretical fits is demonstrated by the proportionality of B to the square root of the Förster triplet-singlet overlap integrals for transfer from poly rA to each of the dyes, as demanded by the theory. From these self-consistent values of B, the theory enables one to deduce the mean packing density of nucleotides in this folded poly rA, which we estimate to be approximately 1 nm-3. We conclude that some variations of the method described here may be useful for deducing packing densities of nucleotides in other compact nucleic acid structures.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262411"}

The orientation factor in intramolecular energy transfer. The measurement of the efficiency of Förster long-range resonance energy transfer between donor (D) and acceptor (A) luminophores attached to the same macromolecular substrate can be used to estimate the D-A separation, R. If the D and A transition dipoles sample all orientations with respect to the substrate (the isotropic condition) in a time short compared with the transfer time (the dynamic averaging condition), the average orientation factor less than K2 greater than is 2/3. If the isotropic condition is not satisfied but the dynamic averaging condition is, upper and lower bounds for less than K2 greater than, and thus R, may be obtained from observed D and A depolarizations, and these limits may be further narrowed if the transfer depolarization is also known. This paper offers experimental protocols for obtaining this reorientational information and presents contour plots of less than K2 greater than min and less than K2 greater than max as functions of generally observable depolarizations. This permits an uncertainty to be assigned to the determined value of R. The details of the D and A reoreintational process need not be known, but the orientational distributions are assumed to have at least approximate axial symmetry with respect to a stationary substrate. Average depolarization factors are derived for various orientational distribution functions that demonstrate the effects of various mechanisms for reorientation of the luminophores.

In the dark cytochrome f is initially fully reduced, oxidized by a 0.3-s flash, and reduced again in the dark period after the flash. In the presence of gramicidin at 18 degrees C, the dark reduction was characterized by a half-time of 25-30 ms, stoichiometries of cytochrome f:chlorophyll and P700:chlorophyll of 1:670 and 1:640, respectively, and a short time delay. The time delay in the dark reduction of cytochrome f, which is expected for a component in an intermediate position in the chain, becomes more apparent in the presence of valinomycin and K+. Under these conditions the half-time for cytochrome f dark reduction is 130-150 ms, and the delay is approximately equal to 20 ms. The measured value for the activation energy of the dark reduction of cytochrome f (11 +/- 1 kcal/mol) is the same as that for noncyclic electron transport in steady-state light. A sigmoidal time-course for the reduction of cytochrome f has been calculated for a simple linear electron transport chain. The kinetics for reduction of cytochrome f predicted by the calculation, in the presence of valinomycin and K+, are in reasonably good agreement with the experimental data. There is an appreciable amount of data in the literature to document complex properties of cytochrome f after illumination with short flashes, and evidence for complexity in a light-minus-dark transition.

This paper develops techniques for equivalent circuit analysis of tight epithelia by alternating-current impedance measurements, and tests these techniques on rabbit urinary bladder. Our approach consists of measuring transepithelial impedance, also measuring the DC voltage-divider ratio with a microelectrode, and extracting values of circuit parameters by computer fit of the data to an equivalent circuit model. We show that the commonly used equivalent circuit models of epithelia give significant misfits to the impedance data, because these models (so-called \"lumped models\") improperly represent the distributed resistors associated with long and narrow spaces such as lateral intercellular spaces (LIS). We develop a new \"distributed model\" of an epithelium to take account of these structures and thereby obtain much better fits to the data. The extracted parameters include the resistance and capacitance of the apical and basolateral cell membranes, the series resistance, and the ratio of the cross-sectional area to the length of the LIS. The capacitance values yield estimates of real area of the apical and basolateral membranes. Thus, impedance analysis can yield morphological information (configuration of the LIS, and real membrane areas) about a living tissue, independently of electron microscopy. The effects of transport-modifying agents such as amiloride and nystatin can be related to their effects on particular circuit elements by extracting parameter values from impedance runs before and during application of the agent.

Two kinetic models are introduced which predict amplitudes and time-courses of endplate currents and miniature endplate currents at neuromuscular junctions, at both normal and acetylcholinesterase-inhibited endplates. Appropriate differential rate equations reflecting interactions of acetylcholine with acetylcholine receptor and with esterase, diffusion of acetylcholine both within and from the synaptic cleft, and cooperativity between receptor site occupancy and ion channel opening are solved. Acetylcholine release into the cleft is assumed to be instantaneous. The simpler homogeneous reaction space model accurately predicts decay phase time constants are inaccurate. The two-reaction space model predicts amplitudes and time constants within a factor of two of those observed experimentally. The simulations indicate that the amplitudes and time-courses are primarily determined by the chemical reaction rates that characterize acetylcholine interactions with receptor and esterase and that these interactions occur under nonequilibrium conditions. Approximately 50% of the total ion channels in the initial reaction space are predicted to be opened at the peak endplate current. The cooperative opening of ion channels by acetylcholine requires that acetylcholine be introduced into the cleft in discrete, concentrated elements. Virtually all the open channels are confined to the initial reaction space, although acetylcholine-bound receptor sites can be much more widely distributed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262418"}

Conformations of oxytocin and lysine vasopressin in aqueous solution. The NH exchange rates in aqueous media of oxytocin and 8-lysine vasopressin (LVP) have been measured by using transfer of solvent saturation method. The data are consistent with a \"highly motile\" dynamic equilibrium between folded and highly solvated conformations. The highly-motility limit applies to the exchange of NH hydrogens of oxytocin and LVP. Folded structures are more prevalent in oxytocin than in LVP. Partial shielding is indicated for peptide hydrogens of Asn5 and perhaps also Cys6 of oxytocin and for Cys6 of LVP. It is tentatively proposed that the folded conformation of oxytocin in aqueous media may contain a parallel beta-structure in the tocinamide ring consisting of two hydrogen bonds: one between the Tyr2 C = O and Asn5 peptide NH as originally proposed for the preferred conformation of oxytocin in dimethyl sulfoxide (D. W. Urry and R. Walter), and the second between he Cys1 C = O and the Cys6 NH. In LVP the hydrogen bond between the Tyr2 C = O and Asn5 peptide NH appears to be absent. The acylic tripeptide sequences (-Pro-X-Gly-NH2) of both hormones appear to be predominantly solvated. The second-order rate constants for acid catalyzed exchange of the primary amide hydrogens of Gln4, Asn5, and Gly9 of oxytocin are consistently greater for the trans NH than for the corresponding cis NH.

Maximally activated vessels were subjected to isometric releases (step changes in L) and isotonic releases (step changes in T) of varying extents and at two different temperatures (27 degree C and 37 degree C). The recovery from an isometric release was monotonic and did not include the two phases seen in skeletal muscles. The isotonic release response did, however, contain a velocity transient lasting about 150 ms: the velocity immediately after the release was about six times the steady shortening velocity. The form of both the isometric and isotonic release responses and their dependence on the extent of release can be explained in terms of a modified Hill model in which the \"series elastic component\" (SEC) is replaced by the series combination of an undamped-SED (that is, an undamped elastic element) and a damped-SEC (a Voigt element). Although the initial response to both types of release was independent of temperature, all stages of subsequent responses were temperature dependent, with Q10's in the range 1.5 - 2.0.

The film and solution absorption spectra were similar except for a relative depression in the 200 - 225-nm region of the film spectrum. However, the CD spectra showed significant differences in the visible region, where the biphasic band in the solution spectrum was replaced by a single positive band at 555 nm in the film spectrum and in the far ultraviolet region, where the 208-nm band was deleted from the film spectra of the native and regenerated membranes.

II. Suppression of tetraphenylborate conductance and changes of interfacial potentials. It has been shown that the blocking of negatively charged tetraphenylborate ion transport in phosphatidylcholine (PC)-cholesterol membranes by the herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) is dominated by suppression of TPhB- diffusion across the membrane interior, rather than by the decrease of adsorption of TPhB- ions at the membrane surface. The blocking effect can be associated with the decrease of electric potential inside the membrane with respect to that of the aqueous medium, this decreases being proportional to the concentration of 2,4-D in the aqueous solution. It has been estimated that 25 - 30% of the total 2,4-D-induced change of the potential difference is between the plane of absorption of TPhB- and the aqueous solution, and the remaining fraction is between the membrane interior and the absorption plane. The results of this study support the dipolar hypothesis of 2,4-D action in lipid membranes. These conclusions are further supported by measurements changes of electric potential difference across air/water and air/lipid monolayer/water interfaces. It has been found that the electric potential of the nonpolar side of the interface decreases in the presence of neutral molecules of 2,4-D and that this effect becomes more prominent in presence of electrolyte. We have confirmed that PC-cholesterol monolayer cannot be considered as a model for half of the bilayer membrane because of the disagreement between the changes of the interfacial potential difference of PC-cholesterol monolayers and those determined from studied of transport of positive and negative ions across bilayer membranes. In contract, we have found close agreement between the 2,4-D-induced changes of electric potential of the lipid hydrocarbon region in glycerolmonooleate (GMO) membranes and GMO monolayers.

The selectivity of Na+-selective glass microelectrodes depended on the ion concentration of test solutions. With aging, resistance of Na+-selective microelectrodes increased and their selectivity for Na over K decreased. Na+-selective microelectrodes potential measured in NaCl solution remained constant with aging, while the potential measured in KCl solution decreased and became more positive. The changes in resistance and potential of Na+-selective microelectrodes may be due to the effects of the less mobile cation, i.e., H+ or K+ on the Na ion exchange in the Na-sensing region. The results indicate that Na+-selective microelectrodes must be used as soon after filling as possible. The selectivity of Na+-selective microelectrodes increased with increase of the sensitive exposed-tip length, whereas their response time became slow due to a large recessed volume, indicating requirement of an optimum exposed-tip length for intracellular applications. The changes in the properties of Na+-selective glass microelectrodes with aging contrasted with those of K+-selective glass microelectrodes in which resistance decreased and K+-selectivity increased. The K+-selective microelectrodes required aging before use for a high selectivity and low resistance. The K+-selective microelectrodes with low resistance after sufficient aging can be used without insulation to measure K+ and Na+ activities in aqueous solutions. The different properties between Na+- and K+-selective microelectrodes are understandable, because hydration of N+-selective glass is much less extensive than that of K+-selective glass.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262433"}

We have explored the kinetic implications of a model that may account for the acceleration of tail fiber (F) attachment to baseplates (B) by whiskers (W) on bacteriophage T4. The model assumes that a W-F complex is formed initially, and that the tethered fiber then undergoes rotational diffusion until a B-F encounter takes place. In the absence of whiskers, B-F complexes must form unassisted. Formation of a W-F intermediate will accelerate F attachment to B if (a) the bimolecular rate constant for W-F complex formation is larger than that for direct B-F interaction and (b) subsequent rotational diffusion of the tip of F to B is not much slower than the dissociation of W-F. Condition a was investigated by applying a recent theory of orientational effects on translational diffusion-controlled reactions. This theory suggests that substantial rate enhancement is expected if the reaction half-angle theta 0 is larger for W-F than for B-F complex formation. Condition b was investigated by calculating the mean and the variance of the time required for the diffusion of a molecule (the proximal tip of the fiber) on a spherical surface (whose radius is the distance from the tip to the whisker tethering point) into a circular sink (the baseplate site). The mean time is on the order of the inverse rotational diffusion coefficient, DR, of the fiber, but is sensitive to theta 0. Both conditions are satisfied for plausible choices of parameters. The solution to the diffusion equation we have obtained should have application to other physical situations, such as the rate of quenching of a fluorophore as it diffuses on the surface of a spherical membrane into proximity with a quencher.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262439"}

Scaled particle theory is used to provide an accurate estimate of the entropy of packing of the cylinders. To apply the model to bilayers we introduce a semiempirical attractive potential energy. Once the form of this potential is chosen, we adjust one parameter, the interaction strength, so that the model fits the transition temperatures and entropies for various phospholipids.

A model for left ventricular diastolic mechanics is formulated that takes into account noneligible wall thickness, incompressibility, finite deformation, nonlinear elastic effects, and the known fiber architecture of the ventricular wall. The model consists of a hollow cylindrical mass of muscle bound between two plates of negligible mass. The wall contains fiber elements that follow a helical course and carry only axial tension. The fiber angle (i.e., helical pitch) is constant along the length of each fiber but varies through the wall in accordance with the known distribution of fiber orientations in the canine left ventricle. To simplify the analysis and reduce the number of degrees of freedom, the anatomic distribution of fiber orientations is divided into a clockwise and counterclockwise system. The reference configuration for the model corresponds to a state in which, by hypothesis, the transmural pressure gradient is zero, the tension is zero for all fibers across the wall, and all fibers are assumed to have a sarcomere length of 1.9 micrometer. This choice of reference configuration is based on the empirical evidence that canine ventricles, fixed in a state of zero transmural pressure gradient and dissected, demonstrate sarcomere lengths between 1.9 and 2.0 micrometer in inner, middle, and outer wall layers, while isolated ventricular muscle bundles are observed to have zero resting tension when the sarcomere length ranges from 1.9 to 2.0 micrometer. An equation representing the global condition for equilibrium is derived and solved numerically. It is found that the model's pressure-volume relation is representative of diastolic filling in vivo over a wide range of filling pressures, and the calculated midwall sarcomere lengths in the model compare favorably with published experimental data. Subendocardial fibers are stretched beyond Lmax even at low filling pressures, i.e., 5 mm Hg, while fibers located between 60-80% of wall thickness extend minimally between 5 and 12 mm Hg. The hydrostatic pressure field within the wall is highly nonlinear. The pressure rises steeply in the subendocardial layers so that the net gain in pressure in the inner third of the wall is 85% of the filling pressure. It is demonstrated that these results are independent of heart size for a family of heart models that are scale models of each other. They are, however, critically dependent on the existence of longitudinally oriented fibers in the endocardial and epicardial regions of heart wall.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262444"}

Neither strain showed any significant difference in growth rate for interdivision doses on the order of the median lethal dose or less delivered continuously at a low dose rate or pulsed every 4 h at a high instantaneous dose rate. It was also shown that large numbers of dead cells have little effect on growth rate and that these dead cells last as discrete entities for many days. A simple theory of growth rate in the presence of radiation is presented, and the agreement with the observations implies that there is no effect of any sublethal low dose rate radiation received in one generation on the growth rate or radiation sensitivity of the succeeding generation.

Both the spontaneous activity and its augmentation were readily inhibited by macrophage-toxic agents such as silica and carrageenan in vivo. Since the NK cells themselves were not macrophages, as shown by the inability of silica or carrageenan to block in vitro cytolysis of target cells, we postulated that macrophages were required to maintain NK activity in vivo and that they were essential accessory cells in the augmentation. The induction of interferon by poly I:C was also inhibited by silica and carrageenan. The augmentation of NK activity induced by poly I:C was consistently accompanied by the rise in serum IF levels of the treated mice, and its inhibition by the macrophage-toxic agents was followed by decreased production of interferon.

At noncytotoxic concentrations the optimum range of 25 to 50 micrograms per 5 x 19(6) spleen cells was most effective in vitro.

All sound sources under all conditions were usually judged to be overhead and moving, but for Ss indoors with windows closed the to-the-side flyovers were judged to be off to the side in 24% of cases. Outdoor Ss reported correct direction in 75% of cases while indoor Ss were correct in only 25% (windows open) or 18% (windows closed). Judgments \"to the side\" were significantly better (p = less than .02) with windows open vs closed, while with windows closed judgments were significantly better (p = less than .05) for flyovers overhead vs to the side. In Exper. III, Ss localized in azimuth and in the vertical plane recorded noises (10 1-oct noise bands of CF = 28.12 c/s - 14.4kc/s, spoken voice, and jet aircraft takeoffs and landings), presented through 1, 2, or 4 floor-level loudspeakers at each corner of a simulated living room (4.2 x 5.4m)built inside an IAC soundproof room. Aircraft noises presented by 4 loudspeakers were localized as \"directly\" overhead 80% of the time and \"generally overhead\" about 90% of the time; other sounds were so localized about 50% and 75% of the time respectively. Through only 2 loudspeakers, aircraft noises were localized 25-36 degrees above horizontal. Implications are that acoustic realism can be achieved in simulated aircraft overflights and that future laboratory noise-effects research should incorporate the required conditions.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262465"}

Prior to considering the effects of herbs and drugs during pregnancy and lactation, attention is directed to the relevance of herbal medicines to human patients.  When a drug is taken orally, its absorption, biotransformation, and excretion will affect its blood level.  It then makes its way to the capillaries surrounding the alveoli of the breast, and the drug must cross the endothelium of the capillaries into the alveolar cells of the breast and then be excreted into the lumen with the milk.  Most of the drugs are excreted into milk by a process of diffusion as a result of a variation in the concentration gradient between plasma and milk.  Transfer of drugs also depends on their molecular size.  A table of drugs which have been found to be excreted or not, and if so whether the levels would be significant for the infant or not, is presented.  Several years of observation of prescription habits of herbalists in Singapore have brought to the surface the use of certain herbs which form the core of different prescriptions.  The following \"core\" herbs and their variations are described:  radix angelicae sinensis; radix rehmanniae; radix poeoniae alba; rhizoma ligusticum wallichii; rhizoma atractylis macrocephacae; glycyrrhiza radiz; ginseng radiz; gelatinum assini; radix codonopsis philosula; radix astragali; rhizoma cyperi; cinnamonium cassia; fritillaria cirrhosa; and poncirus trifoliata.  These \"core\" herbs are used in various presentations and combinations in various amounts in certain prescriptions for certain purposes during pregnancy.  It is difficult to confirm the effects which the Chinese herbalists claim when these herbs are prescribed for pregnant women.  The conclusion is that there is no specific effect on the pregnant woman, but this does not exclude the possibility of a beneficial psychosomatic effect.  It must also not be forgotten that the acttive principles can cross the placenta and reach the fetus.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262485"}

The first-when they were depressed and had just been admitted to the hospital, the second when they were at home and in their customary situation. On the same test occasions the severity of their psychopathology was rated by means of the CPRS. A significant improvement in CPRS rating was ascertained on the second test occasion. In contrast only small changes occurred in the subscales of the KSP. The score referring to 'psychic anxiety' and to 'somatic anxiety' decreased slightly but significantly (p less than 0.05). The scores referring to 'social desirability' also showed a significant (p less than 0.01) slight decrease. Of particular note is that no significant differences were found in the 6 KSP subscales concerned with aspects of aggression, or in the factors which can be obtained from these subscales.

Platelet structural physiology has contributed significantly to our understanding of basic mechanisms of platelet function in hemostasis and thrombosis. Current evidence indicates that platelets are a form of muscle cell with specialized capabilities for secretion and adhesion-aggregation. Activation of the discoid cell by any agent appears to involve a perturbation of the membrane resulting in movement of calcium from the cell wall to the interior. The calcium flux stimulates phospholipase A2 to cleave arachidonic acid from platelet phospholipids starting the cascade of prostaglandin synthesis. In addition, the movement of calcium to the cytoplasm initiates contraction leading to shape change. Products formed during prostaglandin synthesis, particularly thromboxane A2, act as ionophores to transport additional calcium from the dense tubular system to the cytoplasm amplifying the wave of contraction. Alterations in organelle membranes result in their fusion with channels of the open canalicular system. The contractile wave causes extrusion of secretory products which stimulate other platelets to become involved in formation of irreversible aggregates in vitro and hemostatic plugs in vivo. Mechanisms regulating platelet stimulation-contraction-secretion coupling are currently under investigation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262546"}

An analytic solution of the Förster energy transfer problem in two dimensions is presented for the case in which the orientation factor is independent of the donor-acceptor distance, and both the donors and acceptors are randomly distributed in a plane. A general solution based on the method of Förster is possible since all distances are measured in units of R0. The analytic solution is extended to the cases of donors embedded in structures that exclude acceptors, and donors that bind acceptors. The validity of the analytic solutions is demonstrated by comparison with numerical simulation calculations. Numerical approximations to the exact solutions are given for ease of computation. Specific applications to the case of fluorescence quenching of a membrane-bound donor by membrane-bound acceptors are presented.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262548"}

We have recorded membrane impedance and voltage noise in the pacemaker range of potentials (-70 to -59 mV) from spheroidal aggregates of 7-d embryonic chick ventricle cells made quiescent by exposure to tetrodotoxin in medium containing 4.5 mM K+. The input capacitance is proportional to aggregate volume and therefore to total membrane area. The specific membrane capacitance is 1.24 microF/cm2. The input resistance at constant potential is inversely proportional to aggregate volume and therefore to total membrane area. The specific membrane resistance in 18 k omega . cm2 at -70 mV and increases to 81 k omega . cm2 at -59 mV. The RC time constant is 22 ms at -70 mV and increases to 146 ms at -59 mV. The aggregate transmembrane small-signal impedance can be represented by a parallel RC circuit itself in parallel with an inductive branch consisting of a resistor (rL) and an inductor (L) in series. The time constant of the inductive branch (L/rL) is 340 ms, and is only weakly dependent on potential. Correlation functions of aggregate voltage noise and the impedance data were modeled by a population of channels with simple open-close kinetics. The time constant of a channel (tau s) derived from the noise analysis is 300 ms. The low frequency limit of the pacemaker current noise (SI[0]), derived from the voltage noise and impedance, increases from 10(-20) A2/Hz . cm2 at -67 mV to 10(-19) A2/Hz . cm2 at -61 mV.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262547"}

We have measured the force-velocity curves of glycerinated rabbit psoas fibers over a range of ATP concentration from 2.5 microM to 5 mM. As the ATP concentration is increased, the isometric tension increases to a maximum around 50 microM, then decreases to a plateau at 70% of the maximum by 1 mM ATP. At low ATP concentrations the maximum velocity of contraction is low and increases with increasing ATP, reaching a plateau at approximately 2 lengths per second by 1 mM ATP. Our studies suggest that the binding of ATP dissociates the myosin head from actin in the contracting muscle, a reaction similar to that seen in solution. We have constructed models of the actin-myosin-nucleotide interactions based on a kinetic scheme derived from solution studies. The fit of these models to the data shows that the rates of some reactions in the fiber must be considerably different from the rates of the analogous reactions in solution. The data is best fit by models in which head attachment occurs rapidly at the beginning of a power stroke, head detachment occurs rapidly at the end of the power stroke, and the force produced by a myosin head in a power stroke is independent of velocity.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262549"}

The neutral anesthetics chloroform and benzyl alcohol, at concentrations that block the nerve impulse, greatly modify the transport parameters of positive and negative ions in lipid bilayers made from monolayers. Both chloroform and benzyl alcohol increase the membrane permeability to these ions and increase the translocation rate for tetraphenylborate. It was found that both anesthetics increase the membrane permeability to positive ions more markedly than to negative ions. It was also found that the membrane capacitance increases lineary with the concentration of benzyl alcohol. At 51 mM benzyl alcohol, the increase in capacitance is approximately 6%. Chloroform also increases the membrane capacitance; the increase in capacitance was found to be 6% at 18 mM chloroform. An analysis of the changes in the transport parameters of the lipophilic ions, together with the changes in membrane capacitance, suggests that benzyl alcohol and chloroform modify the dipole potential and dielectric constant of the membrane. Benzyl alcohol may also increase the \"fluidity\" of the lipid bilayer membranes.

The kinetics of excision repair in confluent cultures of diploid human fibroblasts after ultraviolet irradiation at varying doses was measured by three different methods: (a) removal of thymine-containing dimers, (b) DNA excision repair synthesis, and (c) biological recovery of cells from the potentially lethal effects of the irradiation. Each method gave similar results and indicated that the excision rate was dependent upon the number of thymine-containing dimers induced (substrate concentration). For example, at a dose of 40 J/m2 (0.2% dimerization), the repair rate was 1.6 J/m2 per h as determined by a modified method to measure the number of thymine-containing dimers remaining in DNA and 1.65 J/m2 as measured by excision repair synthesis. At a dose of 7.5 J/m2, the repair rate was 0.5 J/m2 per h as measured by biological recovery, and at a dose of 7 J/m2, the repair rate was 0.46 J/m2 per h as measured by excision repair synthesis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262553"}

A simplified model consisting of random voltage fluctuations superimposed upon a linear pacemaker depolarization of slope a is used to analyze the N-dependent shape of the IBI histogram.

The magnitude of c required to achieve agreement with the experimental data is larger than the half-length of the head region of the cell. This implies that the midpiece, which also lies along c, contributes to the scattering power. Details regarding swimming trajectory and head orientation are included in the model.

Although measurement of the spectral density function is generally more complete for technical reasons, the autocorrelation function provides, for the case studied here, more physical insight into the underlying charge transport mechanism.

The acetylcholine receptor from the electric tissue of Torpedo californica is a large, integral membrane protein containing four different types of polypeptide chains. The structure of the purified receptor in detergent solution has previously been investigated by sedimentation analysis and gel filtration. Sedimentation analysis yielded a molecular weight of 250,000 for the protein moiety of the receptor monomer-detergent complex; hydrodynamic characteristics such as the Stokes radius, however, refer to the receptor-detergent complex. In this paper we report the results of our use of low-angle neutron scattering to investigate the shape of the receptor-detergent (Triton X-100 from Rohm & Haas Co., Philadelphia, Pa.) complex and separately of its protein and detergent moieties. By adjustment of the neutron-scattering density of the solvent with D2O to match that of one or the other of the moieties, its contribution to the scattering can be nearly, if not completely, eliminated. Neutron scattering from Triton X-100 micelles established that this detergent is contrast matched in approximately 18% D2O. Scattering measurements on the receptor-detergent complex in this solvent yielded a radius of gyration of the acetylcholine receptor monomer of 46 +/- 1A. The radius of gyration and molecular volume (305,000 A3) of the receptor are inconsistent with a compact spherical shape. These parameters are consistent with, for example, a prolate cylinder of dimensions (length x diameter) approximately 150 x approximately 50 A or an oblate cylinder, approximately 25 x approximately 130 A. More complex shapes are possible and in fact seem to be required to reconcile the present results with previous electron microscopic and x-ray analyses of receptor in membrane and with considerations of the function of the receptor in controlling ion permeability. The neutron-scattering data yield, in addition, an independent determination of the molecular weight of the receptor protein (240,000 +/- 40,000), the extent of Triton X-100 binding in the complex (approximately 0.4 g/g protein), and from the extended scattering curve, an approximation to the shape of the receptor-Triton X-100 complex, namely an oblate ellipsoid of axial ratio 1:4.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262562"}

The remaining 156 were sorted into different groups according to their clinical characteristics and were followed up for a period of 24 months at least. After that follow-up period, mortality and incidence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were as follows: angina of recent onset (Class III--IV NYHA): 8.5% (3/35) and 34.2% (12/35). Progressive angina: 7.4% (2/27) and 7.4% (2/27). Intermediate syndrome: 41.6% (10/24) and 37.5% (9/24). Prinzmetal's angina: 10% (1/10) and 10% (1/10). Post acute myocardial infarction angina: 35% (7/20) and 10% (2/20). Acute persistent ischemia: 2.5% (1/40) and 20% (8/40). Comparison of these figures pointed out significant differences (p less than 0.001 for mortality and p less than 0.03 for AMI incidence respectively). We conclude that it is clinically possible to identify different groups within the so-called unstable angina.

We measured mitral E point-ventricular septum separation (EPSS) at the moment of the E peak; the previously described method measures EPSS as the vertical distance between the nadir of systolic septal motion and the subsequent mitral E peak. Angiocardiographic ejection fractions correlated better with EPSS (r = 0.83) than with left ventricular (LV) end-diastolic internal diameter (r = 0.62), LV internal diameter systolic shortening fraction (r = 0.64), LV echocardiographic ejection fraction (r = 0.70), and LV posterior wall systolic thickening (r = 0.58). Patients with angiocardiographic ejection fractions below 55% usually had EPSS values over 10 mm by our method. Six false negatives and one false positive occurred. Our observations in patients with impaired LV performance suggest that LV dilatation, and especially dilatation of the LV outflow tract, is relatively more important than reduction in the amplitude of diastolic anterior mitral excursion in the production of high EPSS values.

The paper concludes that need should be defined in relation to the procedures available to meet it and the resources that permit those procedures to be used. The procedures include the whole gamut of prevention and screening, cure and care, research and development. This necessarily raises moral and ethical issues which stretch beyond the limits of medicine and concern patients, their relatives, and the public in general. Neither the medical profession nor the lay public can be expected to help define need for health care unless they understand the underlying issues.

A range of practical problems arising from these papers (especially the report of the RAWP) is described and traced to the terms of reference. It is concluded that the RAWP misinterpreted aspects of social and administrative reality, and it failed to recognise clearly that the several principles on which it had to work conflicted with each other and demanded decisions of priority. The consequential errors led to (a) an injudicious imposition of 'objectivity' at all levels of allocation, (b) an unjustified insistence that the same method be used at each administrative level in an additive and transitive manner, (c) the exclusion of general practitioner services from their considerations, (d) a failure to delineate those decisions which are in fact political decisions, thus to concatenate them, inappropriately, with technical and professional issues. The main requirement in a revised system is for a mechanism which allocates different priorities to different principles at each appropriate administrative and distributive level, and adapts the working methods of each tier to meet separately defined objectives.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262585"}

In this work a significant positive correlation is shown between the cholesterol values among men and women aged 35-49 years and the infant mortality rate previously present in the municipalities for the same cohort. The findings indicate that poverty in childhood and adolescence, followed by later prosperity, results in high cholesterol values.

The severity of clinical response was, however, dependent on the strain of virus used, with animals inoculated with Smithburn's neuroadapted strain showing a milder response than those inoculated with either the Nigerian or Lunyo strain.

Cardiac myocytes of Tower RSO-fed rats showed some loosening of myofibrils and a slight increase in the number of mitochondria, few of which had lost their cristae.

There was an apparent increase in the number of mitochondria of both normal and giant size. Many of the mitochondria exhibited distortion of shape and degeneration of cristae. The matrix of megamitochondria contained vesicles and electron-dense floccular inclusions and at times electron-lucent lipid-like material. The degenerative changes of mitochondria were most pronounced in the Target RSO group, where some megamitochondria showed a complete loss of cristae and a replacement of matrix with lipid-like material.

Attempts were made to immunise rats against Fasciola hepatica using the culture products obtained from the in vitro cultivation of newly excysted metacercariae. Three culture regimes were chosen: (1) medium NCTC 135 for 48 h (2) NCTC 135 + 20 per cent fetal calf serum (FCS) for 48 h (3) NCTC 135 + 20 per cent FCS for 14 days. The used culture medium from each of these regimes was concentrated, mixed with adjuvant and injected subcutaneously into rats. Similarly treated unused culture media was used in control rats. The rats were challenged with an oral dose of 20 F hepatica metacercariae 35 days later and autopsied 96 days after the start of the experiment. The fluke burdens in those rats which had received the culture antigens did not differ significantly from those in the control groups.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262614"}

Prior to this age the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) is dominant during resting conditions and the stress response is vagally mediated, which is the opposite of most adult rats. In the present research, using the Bailey recombinant inbred strains and their progenitor strains (C57BL/6By and BALB/cBy), we determined the developmental period for the CVS in mice. The CVS was controlled by a high SNS tone and the stress response was vagally mediated at 8 days of age. By 12 days of age, the mice had much slower baseline heart rates which were vagally controlled. Significant strain differences were also found with a polygenic model accounting for these differences. The stress response of the 12-day-old mice was not interpretable because of individual differences in the adult coping strategies. These differences were accounted for by a different polygenic model than was found in the baseline condition.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262626"}

For the assay of LATSP, IgG to be tested was incubated with human thyroid homogenate, then LATS-IgG was added and it was further incubated. The potency of LATS in the mixture was assayed. The adequacy of the present method for the assay of LATSP was supported by the facts that the LATSP activity was roughly related to the dose of IgG tested and that the inactivation of LATSP was observed when the IgG was pretreated with human thyroid particulate fraction and then assayed. With this method, 7 out of 32 patients with thyrotoxicosis showed LATS and 18 showed LATSP. Changes in LATSP were followed up in 7 cases out of the 18. LATSP activity decreased and then disappeared in 6 out of the 7 cases, when they had been euthyroid for a certain period of time.

Numerous studies have demonstrated that reticuloendothelial system (RES) depression induced by colloid blockade increases susceptibility to circulatory shock following trauma and sepsis. Recent data have suggested that this may relate to the failure of the RES to clear potentially embolic material derived from activation of the hemostatic system. The present study thus compared the hypotensive response precipitated by trauma or sepsis with that resulting from induction of intravascular coagulation. Mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) was monitored for 120 minutes after sublethal NCD trauma and after intra-aortic injection of live E coli (approximately 10(10) organisms per rat), E coli endotoxin (0.1 mg/100 gm), or bovine thrombin (10 units/100 gm) in 400-500 gm rats 30 minutes after RE blockade (50 mg/100 gm gelatinized lipid colloid) or saline injection. All rats were anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital. No hypotension was observed in blockaded control rats. After trauma, MABP decreased by 20 minutes after injury and recovered to normal levels by 1 hour post-trauma. MABP decreased in blockaded rats after trauma and remained diminished through 2 hours. After live E coli endotoxin or thrombin, both the normal and the blockaded groups underwent an initial hypotension of similar magnitude. A second period of hypotension was much more pronounced in the RE-blockaded animals. Reduced MABP persisted in these animals through 2 hours. These data indicate that RE blockade enhances the hypotensive response to intravascular coagulation and that resulting from trauma or sepsis. This effect was especially apparent during the second phase of hypotension during sepsis and intravascular coagulation. It was suggested that the RES manifests some protective effect against the agents inducing this secondary hypotensive response.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262805"}

Reticuloendothelial system (RES) depression has been correlated with diminished resistance to trauma, shock, and sepsis in man and animals. Previous studies have related the depression of RES hepatic Kupffer cell phagocytic function after trauma to diminished bioassayable opsonic activity. The present study determined if the loss of biological activity and RES alteration correlated with immunoreactive serum opsonic alpha 2 SB glycoprotein levels after trauma. Serum opsonic activity was measured by liver slice bioassay, and immunoreactive opsonic protein was measured by rocket electroimmunoassay. RE function was determined by colloid clearance over a 24-hour post-trauma period. Anesthetized rats (250-300 gm) subjected to sublethal or severe (greater than LD50) whole-body NCD trauma were the shock models investigated. Immunoreactive levels in 63 rats prior to injury were 518 +/- 24 microgram/ml. Neither biological nor immunoreactive levels were altered over 24 hours in anesthetized sham-traumatized controls. Temporal alteration in the initial decrease and recovery pattern of biologically active and immunoreactive opsonic protein levels significantly correlated following both sublethal and severe injury. Moreover, the patterns of immunoreactive levels of the opsonic protein correlated with the functional phagocytic activity of the RES as determined by vascular clearance of a test dose of blood-borne radiolabeled particulates. This glycoprotein falls after trauma, and the magnitude and duration of the decline increases with severity of injury. Immunoreactive opsonic alpha 2 SB glycoprotein appears to be an accurate measurement of circulating opsonic activity and RE Kupffer cell function after trauma, especially with respect to clearance. Thus, immunoreactive opsonic protein warrants clinical consideration as a noninvasive measure of reticuloendothelial systemic defense in patients after trauma and burn.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/262806"}

Mean arterial flow increased to nearly twice the control level of 12.5 +/- 1.1 ml/min/100 gm and fell gradually, with the sustained 50% drop in vascular resistance largely explained by expected decreases in blood viscosity.

Skin test response in various concentrations of antigens as well as studies of activation of lymphocytes by specific and non-specific mitogens in vitro have demonstrated a depressed cell-mediated immunity. This anergy, however, is not an \"all-or-none\" phenomenon; it varies and there seems to be a direct relationship between the state of anergy and the severity of the cases. Furthermore, certain discrepancies were observed between the in vivo and in vitro responses suggesting that defective cellular immune reactions in dermatophytosis may be symptomatic of a lack of some humoral factor and do not necessarily reflect an intrinsic cellular defect.

Ten years research into the physical and psychosocial consequences of severe brain damage in adults has revealed substantial information about the process of recovery. The main features are evidence that the greater part of physical and mental recovery occurs within six months of injury and that in most cases the mental consequences of injury outweigh the physical ones and place the greater burden upon the injured person's relatives. Impairment of memory is the most common cognitive disorder and alterations in personality often occur also and are the most taxing of the mental deficits for all concerned. The process of recovery has three stages, in the first the patient is unconscious, in the second he or she regains full consciousness signified by the end of the period of post traumatic amnesia and continues to show evidence of rapid improvement in basic physical and mental functions. The rate of recovery shows within six months of injury in most cases and this represents the end of the second stage. In the third stage, which may last for many months, both the patient and his or her relatives adapt to the residual disabilities of the former. Methods of managing the three stages should include physical, psychological and social techniques and the way in which they may be linked to the patients' differing physical and psychosocial needs during the three stages of recovery are briefly discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263003"}

Treatment varies widely but rapid rewarming of the affected tissues is by far the most successful treatment to minimize tissue loss.

A skin plasty is useful in preventing a cocked-up toe, and this is performed at the plantar aspect of the base of the toe. A V-osteotomy, or other metatarsal dorsiflectory procedure, is recommended when the neighboring metatarsal is only slightly plantar flexed or greater. This prevents the occurrence of transfer lesions so commonly associated with this procedure. Two case studies have been presented demonstrating successful results when the procedure is performed on both the second and third metatarsophalangeal joints.

Despite its frequency, ulcerative proctosigmoiditis is poorly recognized and its prognosis is not well understood. This study reviews experience at the Cleveland Clinic from 1960 through 1972, with a 97% follow-up. A total of 359 patients with a diagnosis of ulcerative proctosigmoiditis were followed for a mean of 11 years (range 3.2--17.7 years). There were 219 men and 140 women. Mean age at diagnosis was 40.6 years. All had rectal bleeding, typical proctosigmoidoscopic findings of diffuse granularity, mucosal ulcerations and friability, and normal findings above the rectosigmoid on barium enema. The major complaint in all patients was rectal bleeding, and there were few other symptoms. Perianal disease was absent. On the whole, the patients were older than the usual patients with ulcerative colitis; 37 were older than age 61 at diagnosis. The disease remained localized and the prognosis accordingly was good for 90% of the patients. Extension to the proximal colon developed in 10% (36) of patients, and operation was required in 8% (29), two for toxic megacolon. Operation was carried out a mean of 5.6 years after diagnosis: 2.2% (8) of the patients died during the period of follow-up, six after operation. One patient had carcinoma of the sigmoid colon 12 years after diagnosis. Only one patient was subsequently found to have Crohn's disease. Thirty-nine patients died from causes unrelated to colitis. This study suggests that ulcerative proctosigmoiditis as defined by typical sigmoidoscopic appearance and a normal barium enema is relatively common, that proctosigmoidoscopic findings are identical with those of universal ulcerative colitis, but that the outlook is much better. Ulcerative proctosigmoiditis is rarely confused with Crohn's disease, and carcinoma is rare. Recurrences do occur, however, and proximal extension develops in 10% of patients, usually within 5 years after the diagnosis is first made.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263130"}

External-beam and interstitial-implant therapy can also be combined to the patient's benefit; in many cases, this combination offers advantages over external-beam therapy alone, preoperative external-beam therapy, or aggressive surgery. The recent upsurge of interest in this modality has come about because of three developments: more suitable radioactive sources, after-loading, and computerized dosimetry.

After pneumatic dilatation and subsequent long myotomy, the features of classic achalasia disappeared and he again exhibited radiological and manometric evidence of \"vigorous\" achalasia. The evolution of this patient's disease provides evidence that diffuse spasm and achalasia are different stages of the same disease and lie at opposite ends of a spectrum of related esophageal motility disorders.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263136"}

A histological, physiological and pharmacological study of two regions of the isolated uterine muscle of the rat., i.e., the myometrial one (a zone close to the mesometrial insertion) and the linea uteri (the antimesometrial zone) was performed. From the histological point of view the linea uteri (LU) is characterized by the presence of small bundles of longitudinal smooth muscle fibers (20 to 50), closely packed and clearly surrounded by a connective tissue, whereas in the myometrial zone (M) the smooth muscle fibers are less closely packed and the connective tissue is surrounding a greater number of them. The spontaneous oxytocin or electrically-induced initial tension developed by the LU or the M, was similar. Also the stability with time did not differ between both regions. Atropine depressed consistently the isometric developed tension of M strips, either spontaneously active or driven by oxytocin or electrical stimulation, but had no action on the mechanical activity of preparations from the LU. A pretreatment with hemicholinium also inhibited the spontaneous as well the oxytocin-induced motility of M strips, without affecting those of LU. Pharmacologic evidences suggest that acetylcholine may play a \"facilitating\" role in M strips for the conduction of coordinate contractions.

Prostaglandin inhibitor, sodium meclofenamate, phosphodiesterase inhibitors, aminophylline and dipyridamole, adenosine and blockade of calcium entry by isoptin all reduced the force of spontaneous activity in a concentration-dependent manner, while imidazole enhanced it. Low concentration of aminophylline (10 microM), dipyridamole (6 microM) and meclofenamate (10 microM) depressed the spontaneous contraction of the vein by about 50% without modifying the response to noradrenaline. At higher concentration of these drugs, spontaneous mechanical contraction was reduced further and the response to noradrenaline antagonized. Low concentration of isoptin also reduced the mechanical activity without affecting maximum response to noradrenaline. A common mechanism of action for the drugs tested, namely the limiting of Ca2+ availability for muscular contraction, is discussed.

Also, the more negative the IFP, the weaker was the fibrinolytic activity in the intracapsular fluid (r = 0.60, p less than 0.01).

A woman of 58 came for psychotherapy for the first time suffering from a depressive reaction precipitated by two mid-life events: the marriage of her daughter and the realization that her own cherished marital dream would never be fulfilled. She had postponed coming to terms with the disappointments of her marriage as long as she had had other objects. When these objects were lost, and the distance she had maintained to handle her feelings was threatened, she sought help. There was suggestive evidence that a collusive marital system had sustained an unsatisfactory relationship for 35 years. Her husband was described as an obsessive-compulsive character. His traits were both needed, feared, and resented by the patient, representing the rejected part of herself and aspects of her hated grandmother. Mrs. A. had character traits and a developmental history which supported a diagnosis of primitive hysterical personality. (This type has been described by Zetzel (1968) as \"the so-called good hysteric.\") The paucity of object relationships in her life, her poor work habits, her inability to tolerate affects were striking. The patient had identified with a pathological mother in a family dominated by rejecting and depreciating attitudes. The patient's use of the defense mechanisms of splitting, projection, and withdrawal as ways of dealing with ambivalence significantly interfered with her self-object differentiation and her capacity for intense emotional or physical intimacy. She could only love men whom she rescued or protected, a pattern consistent with the fact that she could not relate to equals or superiors. Yet she was unable to draw on a good identification with a nuturing mother, so as to really be able to give. There was too much hurt and uncontrolled anger when she was in the superior position with the kind of man who could not meet her dependency needs. Feeling unprotected, she had married a \"strong\" man, who she expected would meet her narcissistic and dependency demands. He was inhibited and controlled and could neither need nor be needed by her during his active work life. This led to immediate disappointment of her conflicting conscious and unconscious expectations. She wanted him to be strong and ideal, yet to need her and never oppose her. Hence, there was a failure to establish a mature or satisfying marital relationship. She turned to her children for comfort, particularly her daughter, becoming depressed when her daughter married. She found gratification by staying busy tutoring and teaching underprivileged children. In the course of treatment her depressive symptoms disappeared. She felt hopeful, capable of being believed in, and able to cope as a result of the therapist's functioning as her uncritical ally. After she resumed living with her husband she began to acknowledge an ambivalence toward her cherished, confidante daughter and in some ways reversed her previous splitting of husband and daughter. The mean husband became a kindly saint and the darling daughter became a critical, spiteful queen...", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263175"}

Until recently contributions to geriatric psychotherapy tended to be limited to the consideration of the special problems of the most debilitated of the elderly, neglecting the vigorous majority of aging persons. The reluctance of psychoanalysts to treat individuals past 45 or 50 years of age by classical technique may have impeded the application of psychodynamic principles to the psychotherapy of older people. Gradually, a number of analysts and dynamic therapists reported favorable responses of the middle aged and elderly to such treatment and established some of its technical parameters. In this paper, distinguishing characteristics of the aging and of the debilitated aged are examined in order to clarify the techniques of geriatric psychotherapy. Six case vignettes illustrate the treatment aims of structural change, reinstatement of optimum functioning, and basic support in these two categories and in an intermediate group of those experiencing an emotional crisis. The application of psycho-therapeutic principles (promotion of insight, adaptive intervention, general supportive methods) is described. Psychological management is compared with psychotherapy in the debilitated aged. Treatment of emotional crises in older persons is illustrated. A sample of patients treated by means of psychotherapy--aging, in crisis, or debilitated--is examined with regard to diagnoses, precipitating stresses, the aims of therapy, and the involvement of their families in the treatment.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263177"}

The animals were conditioned to fear with a shock paired sound. The experimental test consisted of investigating the conditioned emotional response (CER) extinction. It was verified that as to conditioned emotional response extinction, neonatally androgenized males were different from control males; neonatally androgenized females, testosterone propionate treated in adulthood were also different from control females. There was no significant difference between neonatally androgenized females oestradiol benzoate treated in adulthood and their control group. In comparing neonatally androgenized females having different hormonal treatment in adulthood, we verified that testosterone propionate treated females were significantly different from those treated with progesterone. On the other hand, neonatally androgenized females treated with oestradiol benzoate in adulthood were different from those that have had the same hormonal manipulation in neonatal period, but that were injected with progesterone in adulthood.

The overdrinking elicited by SA lesions was blocked after SFO lesions. Neither hypovolemia, nor hypotension or water deprivation could elicit increased water intake in SFO-lesioned animals even after destruction of the SA. Animals with SFO lesions did not show increase of the water intake after cellular dehydration. The results obtained suggest that the SFO acts as the main structure in the regulation of water intake elicited by angiotensin with two opposite effects: one direct, facilitating water intake and the other indirect inhibiting the SA.

The continuous in vitro marrow culture system for proliferation of mouse pluripotent hemopoietic stem cells (CFUs) and granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells (CFUc) as initially described by T. M. Dexter, depended upon a 25% concentration of special lots of horse serum and addition of fresh \"recharging\" marrow after 3-4 weeks. This system has been modified to permit longer hemopoiesis in non-recharged cultures over 25-30 weeks. Addition of 10(-7)M hydrocortisone sodium hemi-succinate during weekly feeding and switch from horse to 25% fetal calf serum with corticosteroid at week 4, maintains stability of the adherent marrow stromal cells, decreases lipogenesis (which is deleterious after 10 weeks) and increases proliferation of hemopoietic cells over longer duration. Stem cells removed from 8 week old primary NIH/Swiss marrow cultures reconstituted hemopoiesis in lethally irradiated mice. While 16 week old cultures produced total numbers of CFUc equivalent to 8 week cultures, these cells could not prevent marrow death following similar total body irradiation. Thus, stem cells moved progressively from a pluripotent to a committed CFUc compartment between weeks 8-16. Human femur marrow required thyroxine in addition to hydrocortisone for sustained CFUc maintenance over a shorter 8 week period. Improved technology for mouse long-term marrow cultures should further aid in developing a usable human \"Dexter-system\".", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263239"}

A number of assays exist for hematopoietic stem cells in both humans and mice, but the appropriate stem cell assay for the repopulating potential of human marrow is not clear. Two murine models suggest that these assays may not always predict marrow proliferative potential. In vivo diffusion chamber culture growth of CD1 marrow depleted of pluripotent stem cells (CFU-S) by exposure to mouse-brain antisera plus complement was equivalent to or greater than that of normal serum treated control marrow. Furthermore, CF1 mice repeatedly injected with endotoxin had markedly stimulated granulopoiesis with increases in the number of marrow CFU-S and the % in S phase but no changes in the number or proliferative status of marrow CFU-C. However, inbred BDF1 mice chronically injected with endotoxin although also showing striking increases in granulopoiesis had no significant alteration in their marrow CFU-S or CFU-C number or cell cycle status relative to saline injected controls. Both models present examples where conventional stem cell assays do not provide insight into marrow cell production and suggest that in vitro clonal assays of human marrow cells may not always predict for the potential of marrow to repopulate a human transplant recipient.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263241"}

For bone marrow reconstitution after hemopoietic failure as a consequence of the action of a variety of etiological factors, hemopoietic stem cells are needed. These have been derived in the past mainly from bone marrow. This report describes studies and their results that indicate that granulocytic progenitor cells, measured in cell culture systems as \"colony forming units in culture - CFU-C\", can be collected in large quantities from the peripheral blood of human blood donors by continuous flow leukapheresis. They can be stored at ultra-low temperatures. Their recovery rate after thawing and washing is better than 85%. In a canine model, evidence was obtained that the presence of CFU-C in a suspension of mononuclear blood leukocytes is also indicative for the presence of pluripotent hemopoietic stem-cells. Therefore it is suggested that stem cells can also be collected from human blood as an alternative source for bone marrow reconstitution.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263245"}

Marrow specimens were obtained from 34 different individuals (mainly stage I or II Hodgkins or Lymphomas) and evaluated for their content of erythropoietic and granulopoietic progenitor cells using conventional colony assay procedures and a standardized set of re-agents. Frequency distributions showed that the data for all types of progenitors appeared to be log normally distributed. Estimates of compartment size (i.e. no. of progenitors per 2 X 10(5) buffy coat cells) were 107 CFU-E, 70 BFU-E (37 classified as mature, 12 classified as primitive) and 64 CFU-C. The ratio's of CFU-E: mature BFU-E: primitive BFU-E numbers in vivo correspond well to those predicted by their proliferative capacity in vitro. Interestingly the spread of values obtained for each erythropoietic compartment was not the same but decreased with progressive differentiation, suggesting that stringent regulation of red cell output may not occur until the latter stages of erythroid cell maturation. The ratio of total BFU-E: CFU-C numbers was 1.25 +/- 0.15 suggesting that on average the probability of stem cell commitment to either the erythropoietic or granulopoietic pathway may be roughly equal.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263246"}

To assess the effects of 2-Br-alpha-ergocryptine (CB-154 Sandoz) on hGH metabolism, six acromegalic women were studied before and after 2 months of treatment with 10 mg bromocriptine/day. GH kinetics were evaluated by noncompartmental analysis of the plasma disappearance curve of immunoprecipitable [125I]human GH after pulse administration of the labeled hormone. MCR was increased in all acromegalics after treatment; the difference between the means [153 +/- 11 vs. 200 +/- 16 ml/min . m2 (mean +/- SE)] was highly significant. Secretion rate (SR), measured as the product of MCR by integrated 12-h concentration, was decreased in four patients after treatment, while it was slightly increased in the other two. No change was found after treatment, either initial distribution volume [2.0 +/-0.1 before (B) vs. 2.1 +/- 0.1 liters/m2 after (A)] or total distribution volume [5.0 +/- 0.3 (B) vs. 5.4 +/- 0.4 liters/m2 (A)].

In conclusion, our study shows that in acromegaly, by increasing the MCR of the hormone, and 2) by reducing the SR. The mechanisms by which bromocriptine increased MCR of the GH are also suggested on the basis of kinetic results; like dopamine, bromocriptine could induce a redistribution of blood flows to different organs, thus resulting in a net increase of blood flow to the liver and kidneys which are the major catabolic sites of GH.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263286"}

This study was designed to investigate quantitatively the interference of thyroglobulin autoantibodies in the RIA of human thyroglobulin (hTG). Anti-hTG autoantibodies were combined with purified hTG to produce samples with known antibody titers and hTG concentrations. These samples were analyzed in the RIA. By using anti-human globulin serum it was first shown that immune complexes formed between labeled hTG and human anti-hTG. It was then shown that the most important factor in determining the direction of the interference was the specificity of the precipitating (second) antiserum with respect to these immune complexes. When the precipitating antiserum was specific, i.e. did not recognize human antibodies, the immune complexes remained in the supernatant and the measured hTG concentration was falsely elevated. When the precipitating antiserum cross-reacted with human antibodies, the direction of the interference depended on the sample volume. At small volumes there was false depression while at large volumes there was false elevation of apparent hTG levels, depending on the capacity of the precipitating antiserum to combine with human antibodies. Anti-hTG titers far below those detected by the tanned-red cell hemagglutination test had very large effects, to the point where measurements of hTG could not be made, when a cross-reactive precipitating antiserum was used. Therefore, the procedure which investigators have used until now, to exclude samples with anti-hTG hemagglutination titers above an arbitrary limit, is not adequate. It is necessary, until methods are developed which avoid the problem of autoantibody interference, to characterize each assay to determine the limits of anti-hTG that can be tolerated. The factors which influence anti-hTG interference in the hTG RIA are 1) the specificity of the precipitating antiserum, 2) the sample volume, 3) the maximum tracer binding, and 4) the anti-hTG titer.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263287"}

We have analyzed the interactions of several spirolactone analogs with the androgen receptor of human and rat prostate and the mineralocorticoid receptor of human and rat kidney. One analog, SC 25152, was found to have considerably reduced affinity for the prostate 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone receptor [Ka = 24 +/- 1% and 19 +/- 6% (mean +/- SE) in the human and rat, respectively, of the Ka for spironolactone] while maintaining similar affinity for the mineralocorticoid receptors of human and rat kidney [Ka = 113 +/- 37% and 86 +/- 7% (mean +/- SE), respectively, of the Ka for spironolactone].

Serum total T4, total T3, and TSH have been determined in nine full term newborns with congenital hypothyroid goiter before and after cutaneous application of iodine. The mothers of these infants had untreated euthyroid goiter and lived during pregnancy in the area of Göttingen, West Germany, known as an iodine-deficient region. Mean total T4 in the newborns was 6.3 +/- 1.6 (mean +/- SD) micrograms/dl compared to 16.6 +/- 3.4 micrograms/dl in normal newborns at 3-4 days of age. Mean T3 in the goitrous newborns was 2.74 +/- 0.66 ng/ml compared to 1.58 +/-0.41 ng/ml in the control group of the same age. Serum TSH remained elevated during the first week of life, with a concentration of 40.9 +/- 28.7 microU/ml (control group, 4.16 +/- 1.43 microU/ml).

We have found that the glucocorticoid conjugates correlate better with lung maturation (rs = 0.79) than does cortisol itself (rs = 0.58). This is probably because the conjugates are derived exclusively from the fetal compartment whereas cortisol is also produced by the chorionic membrane.

Exposure to the extrauterine environment is associated with marked stimulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid system after which, pituitary-thyroid equilibrium must be reestablished. This marked endogenous perturbation offers the opportunity to study the manner in which the pituitary-thyroid axis is reequilibrated. T4, T3 and TSH concentrations have been measured by RIA in sera from 440 healthy newborn infants, whose ages ranged from birth to 236 h. Results were analyzed by nonlinear curve-fitting procedures to assess the changes in mean hormone concentrations with age (t). Equations have been derived by Danziger and Elmergreen to allow assessment of oscillatory behavior during hormone equilibration. Applying these equations to the present data, we observed the presence of an oscillatory cosine term in the equation for each hormone. This indicates significant oscillations in serum T4, T3, and TSH concentrations during the first 5 days of life. The period of the oscillations approximates 16 h. The oscillations in T4, lag 1/2 to 3/4 cycle behind TSH; T3 lags behind T4. Thus, disturbances in hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid equilibrium seem to be followed by periodic oscillations in hormone concentrations; these oscillations decrease in amplitude as the negative feedback system establishes new equilibrium conditions.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263295"}

The assay was useful in identifying patients with chronic hyperparathyroid states, such as primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism. In addition, the assay could detect acute changes in PTH seen during calcium, pentagastrin, and EDTA infusions and after parathyroidectomy. These studies demonstrated that an immunoassay with predominant specificity for the carboxy-terminal fragment of PTH can be used to evaluate acute as well as chronic changes in hormone secretion.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263297"}

The present study was designed to compare the immunological, physical, and biological properties of native hCG with an hCG molecule secreted ectopically in vitro by an ovarian adenocarcinoma cell line maintained in long term tissue culture. The hCG produced by the cell line was concentrated by ultrafiltration of the tissue culture medium. The inhibition curves generated by serial dilutions of the culture medium concentrates were parallel to those obtained with purified urinary hCG in the beta-hCG RIA and the rat Leydig cell radioreceptor assay (RRA). The ectopic hCG also reacted with an antibody generated against the carboxyl-terminal peptide (109-145) of beta-hCG. The immunoreactive material cochromatographed with urinary hCG on a Sephadex G-100 column, as determined by the beta-hCG RIA and RRA. Neither free alpha nor free beta subunits were found in the tissue culture medium. The tissue culture gonadotropin was adsorbed onto a Concanavalin A-Sepharose column and could be eluted with alpha-D-methylglucoside. The biological activity of the ectopic hCG was 9289 IU/mg, as determined by the ventral prostate weight (VPW) method in hypophysectomized immature male rats. The biological to immunological ratios by the ventral prostate weight method and RRA were 1.79 and 2.17, respectively. The in vivo disappearance rate of ectopic hCG after injection into immature female rats was significantly faster than that of placental or urinary hCG, but was considerably slower than the disappearance rate of human LH. These studies demonstrate that the immunoreactive and biologically active portions of the hCG produced by the ovarian adenocarcinoma cell line and native hCG are similar or identical. The faster disappearance rate of the ectopic hCG in the rat model may be due to incomplete sialylation of the oligosaccharide moiety of the hCG molecule.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263300"}

T4, T3, and TSH concentrations were measured in the sera of 56 mothers (at the time of delivery) and 60 newborns (in the cord). The results obtained in these groups (untreated) were compared with those obtained in two control groups, comprising 53 mothers whose iodine deficiency had been corrected by the injection of iodized oil and 68 neonates born to such mothers. The results show that the mean (+/- SEM) T4 serum concentration (micrograms per dl) was 11.5 +/- 0.7 in the untreated mothers compared with 15.7 +/- 0.7 in the treated mothers (P less than 0.001), and 9.4 +/- 0.8 in the untreated newborns compared with 12.4 +/- 0.5 in the newborns of treated mothers (P less than 0.01). The values observed for the mean T3 serum concentrations (nanograms per dl) in the same groups were 171 +/- 10 and 154 +/- 9 (mothers; P greater than 0.05) and 68 +/- 6 and 55 +/- 6 (newborns; P greater than 0.05); the mean TSH serum concentrations (microunits per ml) were 8.7 (7.6 - 9.9) and 5.4 (4.9 - 5.9; mothers; P less than 0.001) and 19.6 (16.6 - 23.2) and 6.4 (5.8 - 7.0; newborns; P less than 0.001). The proportion of untreated newborns, i.e. 40%, with individual TSH values deviating by more than 2 SDS above the mean of the treated newborns is much greater than the corresponding proportion, i.e. 15%, of untreated mothers in relation to the treated ones. In 6 out of 34 untreated newborns, definite biochemical signs of congenital hypothyroidism were observed. Correlation coefficients were calculated between the untreated subjects. A positive correlation coefficient of 0.80 (P less than 0.001) was observed between the serum T4 concentrations of the mothers and those of the newborns, and one of 0.61 (P less than 0.001) was observed between their respective serum TSH values. Significant inverse correlations were observed between maternal serum T4 and cord serum TSH (-0.79; P less than 0.001) and between cord T4 concentrations and maternal TSH concentrations (-0.57; P less than 0.01). No definite trend is observed between the variations of serum T3 on one hand, and those of serum T4 or serum TSH on the other hand. Out of 51 mothers in whom serum T4 was determined, 11 showed values below 8 micrograms /dl; the newborns of those mothers showed very low serum T4 values (5.5 +/- 1.6 micrograms/100 ml) and extremely high serum TSH levels [144 (98-210) microU/ml]. It is concluded that, contrary to the situation observed in physiological conditions, maternal thyroid function in regions of severe endemic goiter is a good indicator of newborn thyroid function.

Virilization may occur during pregnancy as the result of an ovarian Krukenberg tumor. mechanism of the androgen overproduction in this exceptional condition is still poorly understood. A new case is reported in which only in the postpartum clinical, endocrine, and endoscopic studies led to the diagnosis of an ovarian Krukenberg tumor secondary to a gastric carcinoma. In the mother, basal hormonal studies were done 1 and 4 weeks after delivery, then after gastric and ovarian surgery. Three months after delivery, ovarian steroid response to hCG (priming dose, 5000 IU; then 1500 IU every other day for 12 days) and a study of progesterone (P) metabolism at a steady state after a constant infusion of [3H]P and cold P (92 micrograms/min leads to blood production rate (BPR) of 152 mg/day designed to reproduce the BPR of P usually seen in pregnancy) were successively performed. Hormones were measured by specific RIAs after chromatographical purification. Basal hormonal levels were normal in the child. In the mother, on the 5th day postpartum, mean hormone levels (in nanograms per dl) were: testosterone (T), 4181; androstenedione (delta 4), 8876; 17 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP), 9746; P 1075; estrone (E1), 195; and estradiol (E2), 151. One month later, levels were normal for the follicular phase; T, 40; delta 4, 146; P, 52; E2, 9; and E2, 4.5. At both times, dehydroepiandrosterone was normal (703-750).

Conversion ratios between products and precursor during constant infusion were normal. From these data, obtained in four different conditions (postpartum period, hCG stimulation, progesterone infusion, and after oophorectomy), the following can be concluded: adrenal production of dehydroepiandrosterone was normal; the ovarian overproduction of androgens likely resulted from the excessive reductive metabolism of both placental and ovarian P along the delta 4 steroid biosynthetic pathway by an hypertrophic stromal compartment; and HCG stimulation seems to be the necessary stimulus for this condition.

An in vitro system has been developed to examine the effects of PRL on the normal primate mammary gland. alpha-Lactalbumin a milk protein, was found in breast tissue samples from 17 of 19 primates representing several Macaca and Papio species; concentrations ranged from 10-768 ng/mg protein. That none of the animals was pregnant or lactating and half were nulliparous indicates that milk protein production takes place under normal circumstances, even in breast tissue of nonlactating animals. Studies of the effect of PRL on alpha-lactalbumin production in these tissues in organ culture revealed that PRL maintained existing or stimulated new production of alpha-lactalbumin for periods of up to 9 days. Measurement of alpha-lactalbumin in medium bathing mammary tissue from three animals revealed that mean alpha-lactalbumin production during days 7-9 when PRL was added (100 and 1000 ng/ml) was 11 and 59 times greater, respectively, than control. Simultaneous measurement of tissue concentrations of alpha-lactalbumin revealed that those tissues maintained with PRL (1000 ng/ml) had a mean concentration of alpha-lactalbumin that was 61 times that of controls without PRL. PRL consistently maintained or increased alpha-lactalbumin production in tissues from all 22 primates tested. Even in those premenarchal animals in whose mammary tissue alpha-lactalbumin was undetectable initially, PRL stimulated alpha-lactalbumin production in a dose-related fashion. In contrast, when PRL was absent from medium, alpha-lactalbumin concentrations decreased at 9 days to less than 20% of the initial 3-day value in all cases. These studies provide evidence that mammary tissue from normal nonlactating, nonpregnant primates produces milk proteins and that when tissues are exposed to PRL in culture, production of alpha-lactalbumin is stimulated.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263307"}

Total calcium (Ca), ionic calcium (Ca++), magnesium (Mg), phosphorus (P), and immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcitonin (CT) were measured. LH levels were used to date each cycle and progesterone levels were used to confirm ovulation. Plasma estradiol was measured in two of the subjects. In six subjects with cycle lengths of 27-31 days, PTH levels rose progressively through the follicular phase to a peak at or slightly before the LH surge, then fell progressively through the luteal phase; peak PTH levels were 30-35% above early follicular and late luteal values. CT levels were also highest at midcycle, but the CT pattern was somewhat more variable than that of PTH. Ca++ tended to fall until 3-4 days before ovulation and then to increase, while Ca, Mg, and P exhibited no particular pattern. One subject experienced a prolonged (44 day) ovulatory cycle characterized by three distinct PTH peaks, each of which coincided with elevations in plasma estradiol level. These results represent the first report of menstrual cyclicity in calcium-regulating hormones. The timing suggest an estrogen effect and it is hypothesized that estrogen inhibits PTH-induced bone resorption, lowering serum Ca++, which in turn provokes a compensatory PTH output. With the decline of the preovulatory estrogen peak, Ca++ levels rise and PTH secretion falls. Alternatively, it is possible that the primary action may be an estrogen-induced rise in CT release, causing hypocalcemia and consequent PTH output.

Indeed, in a short term study of 3- and 4-month duration in osteoporotic women, this was found to be so. A combination of calcium and calcitonin was therefore considered a more promising therapeutic alternative for this disease. Calcium was given to 26 patients, alone or with vitamin D, for a period of 15 months, and the effects on serum and urine calcium and phosphorus and on bone resorption and formation were evaluated. Calcium and vitamin D decreased serum parathyroid hormone levels, reduced bone resorption, and increased urinary calcium. The addition of calcitonin to the calcium and vitamin D did not seem to change these effects. Neither form of treatment resulted in change of bone mass.

The diagnosis of 5 alpha-reductase deficiency was confirmed by demonstration of male levels of testosterone and testosterone precursors before and after hCG administration, elevated plasma testosterone to dihydrotestosterone and urinary etiocholanolone to androsterone ratios, and by in vitro studies indicating 5 alpha-reductase enzyme deficiency in the epididymis of one patient. Studies of control and mutant epididymal microsomes indicated that a single enzyme is responsible in the normal person for the 5 alpha-reduction of testosterone and cortisol (and probably other delta 4-3-ketosteroids as well) and that 5 alpha-reductase activity is undetectable for all substrates examined in the mutant. This finding explains why the formation of 5 alpha-reduced glucocorticoids is also defective in the disorder.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263318"}

We extracted human placentas by three methods to obtain chorionic TSH (hCT).

Based on the RIA for hCT, the yield of hCT was only 0.68 +/- 0.15 (SE) mU/100 g placenta by the Bates method, 2.01 +/- 0.35 mU/100 g by the Reisfeld method, and 4 mU/100 g by a Concanavalin A-Sepharose technique. Thyrotropic activity was detected by bioassay only in one Reisfeld extract; this biological activity could be attributed to hCG in this fraction. In TSH bioassays of other extracts, the responses were less than the sensitivity of the assay; some extracts were lethal to the bioassay mice. The low yield of hCT, about one-tenth to one-hundredth of that reported previously, casts doubt on the validity of the previous observations.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263319"}

Both fractions had activities that were excluded from Sephacryl S-200 columns; another component (mol wt, 20,000) was present in the N fraction. The C was more thermostable than a homologous N activity, and addition to the former of KCl to 0.4 M had no effect. There was large, overlapping variation in thermostability of the C and N activities among strains from either site, sister strains developed from a single skin biopsy, and even among serial subcultures within a strain; likewise, the variable sedimentability of the C (4-7S) and N (3.2-5.9S) activities prevented their consistent discrimination. Each type of variation occurred despite excellent intraexperimental replication. The thermostability of a given N activity varied directly with its sedimentation coefficient. By cluster analysis, the data relating thermostability of a given N activity with the percentage of 0.4 M KCl-resistant nuclear activity segregated into two populations; within each population these two measurements were related inversely. We suggest that these coordinate behaviors of the N activity reflect intrinsic properties of the androgen-receptor system in normal genital skin fibroblasts which may be useful for defining qualitative aberrations of the system in receptor-positive forms of congenital androgen insensitivity.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263322"}

As the rT3 antiserum and assay conditions used were identical in all comparisons (except rT3 standards), the 2- to 3-fold differences in rT3 values noted in the same sera suggested variability in potency of rT3 standards.

The hPRL moiety of each peak fraction was stable in size, immunoreactivity, and bioreactivity, indicating that the polymorphic hPRL components, once formed, were not interconvertible. As the relative proportion of medium and small hPRL components in all blood samples obtained before surgery and in the pituitary tumor extracts were similar, it seems that these two forms of hPRL originate from the tumor. However, there was a lack of correlation between big, medium, and small hPRL in samples obtained before and 1 yr after surgery. Also, increasing amounts of radioactive substance similar to increasing amounts of radioactive substance similar to big PRL were formed by exposure of 125I-labeled small PRL to progressively larger concentrations of serum.

The changes in THE and THF formation and in the t1/2 and MCR of [C]cortisol are similar to the effects observed in patients with intrahepatic cholestasis. It is suggested that in the case of flutamide these changes were also due to a cholestasis-producing effect of the drug on the liver.

HMG CoA reductase activity was computed from the rate of formation of [14C]mevalonolactone from [14C]HMG CoA. The activity of HMG CoA reductase was expressed as nanomoles of mevalonolactone formed/min . mg solubilized cell protein. An inverse relationship was found between the presence of lipoprotein in the culture medium and the activity of HMG CoA reductase in these cells. In cells maintained in the presence of lipoprotein-enriched culture medium containing 840 micrograms cholesterol/ml, the average activity of HMG CoA reductase was 0.25 nmol/min . mg protein. After removal of lipoprotein, the activity of HMG CoA reductase increased to 1.3 nmol/min . mg protein. The average activity of HMG CoA reductase in cells maintained in lipoprotein-deficient culture medium was 1.5 nmol/min . mg protein but fell to 0.3 nmol/min . mg protein after addition of lipoprotein to the medium. When cells were maintained in the presence of lipoprotein, the rates of section of progesterone and pregnenolone into the culture medium were 2-8 times greater than the rates of secretion of these steroids by cells maintained in the absence of lipoprotein. On the basis of these results, it is concluded that lipoproteins control the rate of cholesterol biosynthesis in cultured choriocarcinoma cells by regulating the activity of HMG CoA reductase, and control the rate of synthesis of progesterone by providing the precursor, cholesterol. We suggest that progesterone synthesis by the trophoblast of the human placenta may also be regulated by the uptake of lipoprotein from maternal blood.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263339"}

Identical levels of iodothyronines in serum were found in the young and in the elderly healthy subjects. Moderate and severe disease induced alterations in iodothyronine concentrations in serum comparable to those reported earlier. Serum T3 and free T3 levels were low and serum rT3 levels were high in groups C and D subjects; serum free T4 was elevated in group D, while serum T4 was low. Serum TSH was lower in the healthy elderly subjects than in the young subjects. Serum TSH was higher in the elderly sick subjects (groups C and D) than in the healthy subjects (group B).

In one patient, normalization of glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity, and receptor binding were associated with a spontaneous fall in the titer of antireceptor antibody. A second, more severely affected patient had two entirely distinct phase to her illness. The first, or hyperglycemic phase, was characterized by insulin resistance, negligible insulin binding to receptors on circulating monocytes, and high titers of circulating antireceptor antibodies. The second phase was characterized by refractory hypoglycemia, in association with proliferation of membrance insulin receptors; these occurred despite persistence of high titers of antireceptor antibody. An unusual heptic lesion, diffuse adenomatosis, was observed during this phase. A third patient showed features of both of the other patients, with spontaneous fall in antibody titer as well as a later phase of receptor proliferation.

The analysis of the 3H:14C ratio of free DHT in arterial and hepatic vein blood showed that in both groups, the 3H:14C ratio of free DHT was the same in arterial and hepatic vein blood, indicating that splanchnic tissue is not the source of blood DHT from testosterone. This is in agreement with data that the transfer constant across the liver ([rho]T-DHT SD) was undetectable. In both young and elderly men, a significant increase of the 3H concentration of DHT glucuronide in hepatic vein blood was observed, indicating that the splanchnic compartment could be the site of production of DHT glucuronide. The 3H:14C ratio of DHT glucuronide was much higher than that of free DHT in both groups, suggesting that DHT glucuronide is derived from the blood testosterone pool, and most of the DHT from testosterone seems to be conjugated before mixing with blood DHT. This study indicates that a large fraction of DHT produced in the liver from testosterone is efficiently conjugated or further metabolized, and this results in the lack of splanchnic production of free DHT in men.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263350"}

Twenty-three patients underwent left ventricular aneurysmectomy without coronary artery bypass or other surgical procedure. Fourteen patients (Group 1) benefitted from surgery, and nine fared poorly (Group 2), including the four postoperative deaths. Among the 19 survivors, 17 had postoperative catheterizations. Pre- and postoperative left ventriculograms in the right anterior oblique projection were analyzed by planimetry of the aneurysmal and non-aneurysmal areas. This method provided data favorably altered by surgery in the improved patients and unchanged in the others. None of the preoperative ventriculographic measurements effectively separated the postoperative patient groups. The poor results in the Group 2 patients were of heterogeneous origin arising from pre-, peri- and postoperative factors. The more important factors were the largest and smallest aneurysms, surgically induced mitral insufficiency, and progressive coronary artery disease.

Patients with cirrhosis had a significantly longer quinidine half-life (9 +/- 1 hr; p less than .01) when compared to control patients (6 +/- 0.5h). This was not related to a reduced quinidine clearance rate but rather to an increase in quinidine volume of distribution (4.1 +/- .4 L./Kg. in cirrhotic patients vs 2.6 +/- 1 L./Kg. in control patients; p less than .01). Abnormal quinidine binding (greater than 25 per cent unbound fraction) was noted in seven of the eight cirrhotic patients. In contrast, patients receiving propranolol had a normal quinidine half-life of 6 +/- 0.5 hr. However, these patients had a significantly reduced quinidine clearance (3.3 +/- .7 ml./min./Kg. vs. 5.3 +/- .5 ml./min./Kg. in controls; p less than .05) and higher peak concentrations (1.25 +/- .20 micrograms/ml. vs. .80 +/- .5 micrograms/ml. in controls; p less than .05). Therefore in patients receiving propranolol, quinidine levels may be higher than expected shortly after dosage, and therefore a potential for transient toxicity exists in these patients. Maintenance quinidine dosage may have to be reduced in patients with moderate to severe hepatic cirrhosis, but not in patients receiving propranolol.

In two infants with Wolff-Parkinson-White type B, right bundle branch block was concealed during sinus rhythm and pacing from close to the atrial entrance of the right-sided accessory pathway. However, pacing from the vicinity of the A-V node, the A-V node itself, and the His bundle exposed the right bundle branch block by producing exclusive ventricular activation through the normal, A-V nodal His-Purkinje pathway. In addition, pacing from close to the A-V node also resulted in fusion beats characterized by absence of delta waves with (pseudo) normal QRS complexes and short H-V intervals. False patterns of tachycardia-dependent and bradycardia-dependent block in the accessory pathway also occurred. These dynamic phenomena were attributed to the (peri-A-V nodal) pacing-related, relatively early arrival of excitation at the ventricles through the normal pathways coexisting with delayed arrival of excitation via the accessory pathway. The latter in turn was due to the longer intra-atrial conduction time from paced (peri-A-V nodal) site to atrial entrance of the accessory pathway.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263398"}

One of the two 14-X chromosomes is late replicating in the son, with heavy terminal labeling of all but the centromeric end of the chromosome. This suggests that genetic inactivation has spread from the Xq segment of the translocation chromosome to at least two thirds of the segment derived from chromosome 14, and that the remaining proximal segment of chromosome 14 is possibly still genetically active. These findings provide an explanation for the phenotype: Klinefelter syndrome plus a few mild malformations that are sometimes seen in this syndrome but are also seen in duplication of the proximal portion of chromosome 14.

The literature on this syndrome is analyzed to derive some figures for use in genetic counseling of such families. Branchio-oto-renal dysplasia is an autosomal dominant disorder in which affected individuals may have preauricular pits, lachrymal duct stenosis, hearing loss, branchial fistulas or cysts, structural defects of the outer, middle, and inner ear, and renal anomalies, which may range from mild hypoplasia to complete absence. Not all features of the syndrome are expressed in all carriers of the gene, but few carriers lack all the features, and the pits, branchial clefts, and hearing loss, are frequently expressed. Those offspring of affected persons who have pits or fistulas are likely (about 80%) to have hearing loss of varying degrees of severity. A minority of heterozygotes (about 7%) may have hearing loss without pits or fistulas. The risk of severe renal malformation is probably fairly low. Whether families that show dominant inheritance of pits, clefts, and deafness without renal anomalies represent variants of the BOR syndrome or a separate entity (the BO syndrome), is still not clear.

Abnormalities included muscle variations concentrated along the radial margin of the forearm and hand, the absence of the definitive musculocutaneous nerve in all of the limbs, and reductions of the radial artery in four of the bodies.

The characteristic flexion deformities of the fingers seem to be due to a displacement of the tendons of extensors digitorum and digiti minimi. The lower limbs did not show a consistent pattern of defects, except for the absence of some muscles (psoas minor, the tendon of flexor digitorum brevis to digit V), and the presence of several supernumerary muscles. These variations are discussed as possible nonspecific effects of 18-trisomy on development. The additional anatomical data from this and the first paper in this series [Bersu and Ramirez-Castro, 1977] provide a more detailed picture of the trisomy-18 phenotype which may be useful in corroborating an unconfirmed clinical diagnosis of the syndrome.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263444"}

Fourteen patients with hypodontia and the ocular features of the Rieger syndrome were examined for the presence of systemic anomalies. A periumbilical defect that consisted of failure of the periumbilical skin to involute was seen in ten of the thirteen evaluated for the defect. Three others had scars over the umbilical area and had a history of surgery for herniation. In addition, four males in one family and one male from another family had hypospadias. None of several other anomalies reported to be components of the Rieger syndrome by other authors was detected in the fourteen patients. The mode of inheritance in the familial cases studied was compatible with autosomal dominance. The results of this study indicate that the Rieger syndrome is an autosomal dominant syndrome whose cardinal features are hypodontia, goniodysgenesis, and failure of the periumbilical skin to involute properly.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263445"}

Eighty normal Caucasians were studied by CBG technique for estimation of size and inversion heteromorphisms of chromosomes 1, 9, and 16. Size heteromorphisms were classified into one of five sizes using 16p as a reference standard: very small, small, intermediate, large, and very large. Inversion heteromorphisms were also classified into 5 categories - eg, no inversion; partial inversion - minor; half inversion; partial inversion - major; and complete inversion. The frequencies of size heteromorphisms for chromosomes 1, 9, and 16 were 11.3%, 47.5%, and 7.5%, respectively. Thirty-four chromosomes were found to have inversions. Of these, 16 were in chromosome 1, and 18 were in chromosome 9. No inversions were found in chromosome 16. An increase in the size of the h region was more frequently associated with inversion, suggesting that there is a possible relationship between size and inversion. For example, there were 118 chromosomes that were classified as \"intermediate\" by size; 23 (19.5%) had inversions. In contrast, there were 225 that were \"small\" in size, and only 10 (4.4%) had inversions.

The incidence of a small thyroid gland of less than 15 g in weight was higher in patients with lymphocytic infiltration and/or positive antibodies than in patients with a normal thyroid gland.

The clearance of cortisol in buffer, expressed as a fraction of the antipyrine transfer rate (clearance index), was 0.50 +/- 0.05 SEM in either direction. Extensive conversion to cortisone (85%) occurred during transfer. Addition of corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) in amounts sufficient to bind 50% of the cortisol reduced the clearance (0.40 +/- .026) insignificantly, whereas human serum albumin (HSA) in amounts sufficient to bind 50% of the cortisol reduced the clearance to 0.28 +/- 0.012 (P less than 0.001) even though the association constant for albumin is approximately 1000-fold less. The percent of conversion to cortisone did not change significantly with protein binding. The clearance index of cortisone from a protein-free perfusate was 0.74. With CBG and albumin in the same concentrations as used in the cortisol experiments, the binding of cortisone to CBG was 23% and its clearance was 0.70; with albumin, the binding was 45% and the clearance index was 0.45. The addition of albumin and CBG to the same perfusate resulted in a cortisol clearance equal to that obtained with perfusate containing only albumin.

The mean of the 22 samples obtained from each subject for each steroid was used as a reference mean. Individual determinations were converted to percentages of the reference mean which was normalized to 0%. All pregnancies were uncomplicated, and all mean values were within the normal range for gestational age. Variability about the reference mean for single samples, however, range from a low of -80% to a high of 150%. The single sample, 95% confidence intervals for individual steroids pooled from the five subjects (110 determinations) range from +/- 36% (E2) to +/- 60% (17P). Mean percentage coefficients of variation between 5-min and 15-min sampling sequences were compared by analysis of variance. There is no significant difference between the mean percentage coefficients of variation of a 5-min as opposed to a 15-min sampling sequence for any of the hormones measured. The 95% confidence interval width around the reference mean is a function of the number of samples obtained. Because the 95% confidence interval width from 110 measurements decreases approximately as 1/ square root n with increasing sampling size, the decrement progressively diminishes. For E2, the least variable steroid, a one-sample 95% confidence interval width of +/- 36% decreases to approximately +/- 18% with four samples or approximately +/- 12% with nine samples. For 17P, the most variable steroid, a one-sample 95% confidence interval width of +/- 60% decreases to approximately +/- 30% with four samples or approximately +/- 20% with nine samples.

This peak has been termed pre-T3 because it elutes just before the T3 peak. Identification of the various compounds in pre-T3 was carried out by cation exchange chromatography. Pre-T3 generated from [125I]T3 consistently contained labeled compounds with the chromatographic behavior of 3,3'-diiodothyronine and 3'-monoiodothyronine, while pre-T3 generated from [125I]rT3 contained labeled products with the chromatographic mobility of 3',5'-diiodothyronine, 3,3'-diiodothyronine, and 3'-monoiodothyronine. In addition, pre-T3 also contained the glucuro- and sulfoconjugates of these several labeled products.

Chromatography of serum on columns of Sephadex G-25 superfine after the iv administration of 125I-labeled T4 consistently yielded labeled iodide, iodoprotein, T3, and a labeled peak that eluted from the column before the T3, termed \"pre-T3.\" Much larger quantities of pre-T3 were generated after the iv administration of 125I-labeled T3 and rT3. The ratio of [125I]pre T3:[125I]T3 and [125I]pre T3:[125I]rT3 plateaued at approximately 10 h and 2 h, respectively, after the iv administration of the labeled hormone, and averaged approximately 15% in euthyroid subjects. As pre-T3 behaves like its precursors in the TCA precipitation-ethanol extraction or anion exchange chromatographic procedures used to separate labeled iodide and iodoprotein from administered labeled T3 and rT3, concentrations of labeled hormone measured by these techniques will be in error, because pre-T3 will be included. Thus, the MCR of labeled T3 and rT3 measured by Sephadex chromatography will always be higher than values obtained by the other two separative techniques and the magnitude of change will be similar to the ratio of pre-T3 to precursor T3 or rT3. The Sephadex chromatographic technique is laborious, but appears to be the method of choice where greatest accuracy of measurement is required.

Although purified human somatomedins and related peptides have been shown to stimulate growth-related processes in cultured human skin fibroblasts, it is unknown whether the serum macromolecules required for the routine growth of human fibroblasts in culture include the somatomedins. To evaluate this question we have obtained sera from five GH-deficient patients before and after GH treatment and have compared these pre- and post-GH sera for their ability to stimulate [3H]thymidine incorporation into DNA and cell multiplication in the patients' own fibroblasts in culture. Subconfluent human fibroblasts demonstrated a dose-dependent increase in thymidine incorporation and cell number when exposed to human sera. Pre- and post-GH sera were equipotent. Partial purification of somatomedin activity by boiling sera at pH 5.5 diminished the level of thymidine incorporation to 10-20% of the level achieved with unboiled sera but did not unmask a difference between pre- and post-GH sera. In contrast to the results in human fibroblasts, boiled post-GH sera were 2- to 5-fold more potent than pre-GH sera in stimulating thymidine incorporation in chick embryo fibroblasts. Mixing experiments failed to demonstrate inhibition of thymidine incorporation by boiled pre-GH sera. Boiled post-GH sera also were twice as active as boiled pre-GH sera in stimulating multiplication of chick embryo fibroblasts and confirmed that thymidine incorporation reflected DNA synthesis. GH added directly to chick embryo fibroblasts did not stimulate thymidine incorporation. We conclude that despite the presence of specific receptors for somatomedin-like peptides on human skin fibroblasts, somatomedins are not a major component of the serum macromolecules required for the routine growth of human fibroblasts in culture. In contrast, in chick embryo fibroblasts, somatomedins do appear to constitute an important part of the serum macromolecules supporting cell growth.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263474"}

That the immunoreactive material measured behaved like hCG was determined by RIA of the supernatants. Parallelism was demonstrated between dilution curves for the tissue homogenates and the hCG standard for all tissues except meconium. A rat Leydig cell in vitro bioassay was used to demonstrate that there was hCG biological activity in the supernatants in ovarian, thymic, and renal tissues. The mean ratios of biological to immunological activities were 5.3 in kidney (n = 4), 1.6 in thymus (n = 3), and 1.3 in ovary (n = 2). Blood content of the tissues was determined from measurements of hemoglobin levels and it was found that for the ovary, testis, kidney, and thymus, hCG concentrations were higher than could be explained by the presence of circulating hCG in the tissues. These results, together with our previous results of the binding and effects of hCG in the human fetal testis, support the fact that the fetal testis is a target organ for hCG in the stimulation of steroidogenesis. The presence of high levels of hCG in the ovary, thymus, kidney, and meconium poses questions for further study of the possible physiological role of hCG.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263477"}

The design of a split high-pressure xenon detector array for tomochemistry in computed tomography (CT) is described. Each detector produces a signal from the front primarily due to low energy photons and a signal from the back primarily due to high energy photons. Two methods are described whereby these signals are used to determine the photoelectric and Compton coefficients. From these, the electron density and average atomic number can be determined for each pixel in the image. These methods were tested by computer simulations of scans of a simple phantom, and the resulting Compton and photoelectric images are presented and compared with a conventional CT image. It was found that electron density and atomic number can be determined to an accuracy of better than 4%. The sensitivity to noise was studied, and it was found that the standard deviation of the mean of a 5 X 5 pixel region in the conventional image is about a factor of 3 lower than in the same region in the Compton image and about a factor of 40 lower than in the photoelectric image.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263487"}

An investigation into the feasibility of using X-ray computed tomography (CT) to measure disease induced changes in bone mineral content of the human spine is described. A theoretical study of this type of measurement has been made using a mathematical model of osteomalacia. The measured EMI number changes linearly with the mineral content, and the sensitivity is shown to be 1.2 EMI units (EU: 500 scale)/1% change in mineral content in vertebral bone. The physical sensitivity to an equal mineral change in cortical bone is found to be 8.6 times greater. The mineral selectivity of the CT method is such that only about half the change in the EMI number arising from progressive osteomalacia reflects change in actual mineral content, while half is due merely to changes in bone density that accompany demineralization. In addition, the perturbing effects of beam hardening on measurement accuracy are evaluated and shown to be significant. Finally, an experimental measurement indicates that in practice the reproducibility of such measurements would be about 1 EU, and it is shown that the measured parameter correlates well with the calculated total linear attenuation coefficients.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263488"}

The specific drug and dose conditions were the only discriminative cues available to the animals. The number of training sessions before criterion performance indicated the discriminability of the two training conditions. Drug vs no drug training showed that discriminability was proportional to dosage for low doses, but was constant over a range of higher doses. Such an asymptote of discriminability was observed with scopolamine, atropine, benactyzine and Ditran (JB 329), and was shown not to result from tolerance. High dose vs low dose discriminations involving scopolamine were learned very slowly if both doses were within the asymptotic range; this indicates that similar discriminable effects were produced by high and low doses. To compare various drugs, substitution tests were administered to trained rats. The four antimuscarinic drugs generally substituted for one another but did not mimic and were not mimicked by drugs in other pharmacological classes. Some exceptions to this pattern were noted. The discriminable effects of scopolamine were partially antagonized by physostigmine. The results indicate that the antimuscarinic drugs share discriminable actions probably produced by their anticholinergic actions.

This study demonstrates that the rat develops differential slow potential responses to reinforced and nonreinforced stimuli in a discrimination paradigm and that d-amphetamine produces a differential and dose-related alteration of these SP responses. It is suggested that the actions of amphetamine may be produced through interference with mechanisms of discrimination, by an effect on subcortical activating systems involving norepinephrine, and/or by activation of inhibitory dopamine receptors on cortical neurons.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263552"}

The effects of 4 doses of angiotensin II, 0.4, 0.8, 1.2 and 1.6 mg/kg, injected subcutaneously on schedule dependent lever pressing and schedule induced drinking and licking were studied in rats who had recovered body weight under ad lib eating conditions. Prior to this experiment rats had been maintained at 80% body weight and were tested under the usual conditions producing schedule induced drinking. Animals were then returned to the home cage and allowed to recover body weight. Results were analyzed for both the first 15 min of the 1 hr session and for the total 1 hr session. Data indicate that all four doses decreased lever pressing during the first 15 min and for the total 1 hr session. The three highest doses produced increased licking during the first 15 min. Only the highest dose augmented licking throughout the total 1 hr session. Water intakes were significantly increased by the three highest doses only during the first 15 min of the session.

This report shows that stimulus generalization occurs in rats conditioned by a single injection of apomorphine. The data suggest that apomorphine initially acts as an unconditioned stimulus (UCS) of an unconditioned response (UCR) that, in turn, produces stimuli which become conditioned stimuli (CS) of a conditioned response (CR) having a nature identical to that of the UCR. The study also shows that behaviour elicited by a subcutaneous injection of apomorphine depends on the part of the body selected for administration.

The advantages and disadvantages of evolutionary fitness (probability that a single mutant line will not become extinct) and genetic fitness (mean fecundity) are compared. For deterministic processes the two are equivalent, but for stochastic branching processes they may be totally unrelated except that an absolute genetic fitness of unity or less implies an evolutionary fitness of zero. To know the variance as well as the mean family size does not in general uniquely determine the evolutionary fitness. Except where genetic fitness is close to unity, the impact of selection is shown to be rapid for the binomial, Poisson, negative binomial, and truncated negative binomial distributions. Evolutionary fitness, though somewhat cumbersome, has greater relevance to evolution, genetic counseling, and voluntary population control; but genetic fitness which is much easier to handle is the more appropriate measure where a large number of mutants is involved. Some empirical data on the transmission of various types of characters from parent to child are analyzed to allow comparison of genetic fitness, Crow's index, and a Malthusian parameter, with evolutionary fitness. There is a fair, but far from perfect, agreement among them. Multiple correlation of evolutionary fitness with mean and variance of family size taken jointly suggests a much more satisfactory approximation. It thus appears that, at the least, the population geneticist cannot afford to ignore the variance (which is not adequately represented in Crow's index). These relationships, based on two sets of data only may be accidental and should be invoked with caution. It seems more than likely that other aspects of the distribution of family size (eg, even higher moments) may contain relevant information in certain cases.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263582"}

This is accomplished by computing the expected distribution of nuclear families with more than one affected sib conditioned on several family-dependent variables, including whether each family was ascertained via only affected boys or via at least one affected girl. A direct measure of the probability of observing a data set is thereby derived. The test, when applied to data on pyloric stenosis, exposes the critical nature of the ascertainment procedures.

The multilayer contribution can also be identified by its position and concentration behavior in both the intensity pattern and its Fourier transform. When the multilayer and protein components are subtracted, the phospholipid scattering and an interaction term are left: these two can be resolved by a reasonable assessment of their relative magnitude in the boundary region where they overlap.

Results indicated that 6-MP produced its suppressive effects primarily by action on cells of the monocyte-macrophage series. Suppression could occur under conditions of both developing and pre-established delayed hypersensitivity. The defect primarily involved newly synthesized, bone marrow-derived monocytes. Marked alterations in monocyte macrophage generation and distribution, especially the T1/2 of circulating monocytes were demonstrated. Suppressive effects were associated with the appearance of a unique morphologic microscopy.

Multivariate behavioral genetic analyses may employ either genetic and environmental correlations or phenotypically standardized covariances to assess the structure of genetic and environmental influences. Correlations and phenotypically standardized covariances answer different questions--correlations are appropriate for understanding the nature of genetic and environmental influences, whereas covariances are appropriate for determining the etiology of phenotypic correlations. The ratio of the genetic and environmental covariances to the phenotypic correlation yields estimates of bivariate heritability and environmentality, measures of the extent to which observed phenotypic covariance is due to genetic and environmental influences. Multivariate analyses of genetic and environmental correlations and covariances are illustrated with twin data on scholastic abilities. Factor analyses of correlations suggest that the same set of genes affects the major areas of academic achievement and that the environmental influences are similarly structured. Analyses of phenotypically standardized covariances indicate that the structures of genetic and environmental influences as they contribute to phenotypic resemblance among scholastic abilities are both similar and simple: there are one general genetic factor and one general environmental factor.

Since Galton's time, critics of the twin method have rejected the evidence of genetic differences in human behavior, because the twin method assumes that identical and fraternal pairs have equally similar environments. Twins whose genetic similarity is misperceived by themselves and others provide a critical test of the adequacy of this assumption. The relative effects of perceived and actual genetic similarity on cotwin differences in cognitive, personality, and physical development were assessed in a sample of young, adolescent twins whose genetic similarity was often misperceived. Twins' responses to questions about their own and others' judgments about their zygosity and physical similarity, and the ratings of similarity by eight judges, were used to estimate the perceived similarity of the twins. Actual zygosity was established by matching cotwins on 12 or more blood group loci. Perceived zygosity and perceived similarity by self and others were found to be insignificant biases in the twin study method.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263638"}

The enzyme which interconverts the active hormone cortisol (F) and its biologically inactive analog cortisone (E), viz. 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, is known to be present in many tissues. In this study, its possible role as a regulator of cortisol concentration in the human lung was investigated. Small amounts of minced tissue were incubated for 2 h at 37 C in the presence of tracer F or E. After extraction, the steroids were chromatographed using Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography. From 11-21 weeks of gestation, inactivation of F to E occurred (54.7 +/- 8.0%), while in 11 premature infants there was no conversion in either direction and in 9 infants (4 months to 2 yr of age) there was slight conversion of E to F (7.0 +/- 3.4%). Activity in children was negligible. Lung tissue from 4 anencephalics (35-40 + weeks) retained the ability to inactivate F to E (21.3 +/- 4.3%), though to a lesser extent (P less than 0.01) than fetuses up to 21 weeks. The validity of these in vitro studies was borne out by assays of the endogenous steroids in lung tissue and serum. These results suggest that there is an alteration from rapid inactivation of F to E in early fetal life to slight F production in infancy and that this change is advanced by pituitary or other factors which are decreased in anencephaly. This decreasing inactivation by the lung during late gestation results in higher intracellular F levels which probably act to promote lung maturation in preparation for birth.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263656"}

In the case of [125I]SM-A, the dose-response curves for whole plasma, acid-chromatographed plasma, and the standard SM preparation were parallel (P less than 0.2).

In a dose-response study, 7.5 mg/kg of naloxone produced maximal attenuation of conditioned taste aversion to saccharin induced by 10 mg/kg of morphine. Naloxone was administered immediately after the morphine in this study. In a second experiment, naloxone still caused a significant attenuation of taste aversions when administered with a 1 hr delay after morphine, but not after delays of 4 or 8 hr. These results suggest that behavioral consequences of morphine which peak during the first hr after injection (analgesia, catalepsy, and depression of intracranial self-stimulation) are not correlated with the aversive effect of morphine. Nor can the aversiveness of morphine be attributed to withdrawal effects. Only the facilitative actions of morphine occurring 1 to 4 hr after injection, including the facilitation of intracranial self-stimulation, are temporally correlated with the naloxone-sensitive aversive effect. Thus, a temporal analysis cannot be used to dissociate the paradoxical positive reinforcement and aversive effects of morphine. Rather, the temporal correlation between the two opposite motivational effects of morphine serves to emphasize the nature of this paradox.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263668"}

At equilibrium the affinity of the oxonols for the vesicles depends on the structure of the dye, the physical and chemical composition of the vesicles, and the ionic strength of the medium. The oxonols occupy soybean lipid vesicles to a level of 147.9 +/- 17.1 nmol/mg lipid with a dye membrane dissociation constant of 3.33 +/- 0.54 muM. The interaction of the oxonols with soybean lipid vesicles is biphasic. The fast phase has a second order rate constant of 9.04 +/- 0.36 x 10(6)M(-1) s(-1) and the number of \"fast\" binding sites, 68 +/- 8 nmol/mg lipid, was determined from the ratio of the second order rate constants obtained with lipid and with dye in excess. The dissociation of oxonols from soybean lipid vesicles is also biphasic, and the fast process has a rate constant of 17 +/- 2 s(-1), yielding a dissociation constant for the fast sites (k(-1)/k(2)) of 1.88 +/- 0.15 muM. The slow phases of oxonol association with, and release from, soybean lipid vesicles are not second order and have half times of between 0.2 and 5 min, depending on the physical and chemical composition of the membrane lipids. The amplitudes of the slow phases are sensitive to the composition of the aqueous media on each side of the vesicle membranes, which suggests that the slow processes represent the permeation of the membrane by the oxonols.

I. Enhancement of cationic conductance and changes of the kinetics of nonactin-mediated transport of potassium. We have found that herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) has the ability to increase the rate of transport of positive ions of several kinds, and to inhibit transport of negatively charged tetraphenylborate ions in lipid bilayer membranes. It has been found that only the neutral form of 2,4-D is transport active, whereas the ionized from of 2,4-D does not modify transport of ions, and does not by itself permeate through lipid membranes. The results suggest that the enhancement of transport of positively charged ions such as tetraphenylarsonium + and nonactin-K+ is dominated by the increase of the ion translocation rate constant. It has been shown that the enhancement of nonactin-mediated transport of K+ by 2,4-D can be accounted for by a simple carrier model. We have observed that a 2,4-D concentration above 3 X 10(-4) M the potassium ion transport in phosphatidylcholine-cholesterol as well as in cholesterol-free glycerolmonooleate membranes is enhanced to such a degree that, depending upon the concentration of potassium ions, it becomes limited by the rate of recombination of K+ with nonactin, and/or by backdiffusion of unloaded nonactin molecules. Furthermore, the effect of 2,4-D is enhanced by ionic strength of aqueous solution. From the changes of kinetic parameters of nonactin-K+ transport, as well as from the changes of membranes conductance due to tetraphenylarsonium + ions, we have estimated the changes of the electrical potential of the membrane interior. We have found that the potential of the interior of the membrane becomes more negative in the presence of 2,4-D, and that its change is proportional to the aqueous concentration of 2,4-D. The effect of 2,4-D on ion transport has been attributed to a layer of 2,4-D molecules absorbed within the interfacial region, and having a dipole moment directed toward the aqueous medium. The results of kinetic studied of nonactin-K+ transport suggest that this layer is located on the hydrocarbon side of the interface.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263687"}

Deuterium magnetic resonance is applied to the study of the liquid crystalline and gel phases, and of the phase transition, of a multilamellar dispersion of chain perdeuterated (d62)-dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine/H2O. Analysis of the deuterium spectra in terms of the moments of the spectra allows one to make quantitative statements concerning the distribution of quadrupolar splittings even in complicated situations, e.g., when using perdeuterated sampled or when there are mixed phases. This analysis indicates that d62-dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine in excess H2O undergoes a sharp phase transition (with a width of less than 1 degree C) at approximately 37 degrees C and that there appears to be hysteresis in the phase transition of approximately 1 degree C. In the lamellar liquid crystalline phase above 37 degrees C the spectra show a number of well-resolved features whose quadrupolar splittings can be followed as the temperature is varied. The gel phase near 20 degrees C possesses a very broad, almost featureless spectrum that does not seem to support a model of the gel phase wherein the hydrocarbon chains are fully extended in the all-trans conformation. At temperatures near 0 degrees C the spectra clearly indicate that a large fraction of the lipid molecules cease the rotation about their long axes, giving a spectrum more characteristic of a rigid or solid sample. These results give a picture of the gel phase as a phase characterized by considerable hydrocarbon chain disorder near 20 degrees C and becoming a more solid-like phase near 0 degrees C. The spin-lattice relaxation time, T1, has been measured at 20 degrees C in the gel phase, and at 37 and 45 degrees C in the liquid crystalline phase. The values of T1 obtained for each of the resolvable peaks in the spectrum at 37 degrees C are compared to the values (for each peak) of T2e, the decay time of the quadrupolar echo, obtained at the same temperature.

A combination of polarized and dark-field microscopy facilitated characterization of the defects; specific structural models are proposed. A new alignment technique involving compression and dilation of the lipid, which effects sample alignment at temperatures that are lower than those required by the Powers technique, is described.

The effect of the small anesthetic molecule, benzyl alcohol, on the structure of various bilayer system has been studied by optical, electrical, and x-ray diffraction techniques. We find that the modifications in bilayer thickness caused by benzyl alcohol differ dramatically for planar (or black lipid) bilayers containing solvent, planar bilayers containing little or no solvent, and vesicular bilayers. Benzyl alcohol increases the thickness of planar bilayers containing n-alkane solvents, yet decreases the thickness of \"solvent-free\" planar bilayers. The effect of benzyl alcohol on vesicular bilayers below the phase transition temperature also depends on whether solvent is present in the bilayers. Without solvent, gel-state bilayers are reduced in thickness by benzyl alcohol, whereas in the presence of solvent, the thickness is unchanged. Above the phase transition temperature, benzyl alcohol has no measurable effect on vesicular bilayer thickness, whether solvent is present or not. These results indicate that different model membrane systems respond quite differently to a particular anesthetic.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263698"}

An order parameter-based interpretation is applied to the temperature dependence of the deuterium magnetic resonance splittings and the anisotropic contribution to the chemical shift for 31P from the head groups of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC). It is shown that the rotational motion of the molecule about its long axis is not a free rotational motion as normally assumed, but instead a biased one. Changes in the degree of biasing appear to be primarily responsible for the variation of the NMR spectra with temperature. The degree of biasing is described by orientational order parameters. With the use of these order parameters, it is shown that the temperature dependence of the anisotropic contribution to the chemical shift for 31P can be predicted from that of the deuterium quadrupole splittings.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263699"}

We present a new method for the determination of structural parameters in biological membranes. Recording the continuous scattering of heavy-atom labeled membranes and applying elementary Fourier methods we obtain the scattering of the heavy-atom distribution alone. The details of this distribution are explored by developing a simple model and testing for cases relevant to biological membranes. We find that the intensity distribution is highly sensitive to many key parameters. The increased signal from heavy-atom labeling and the use of an improved x-ray system make it possible to record patterns from dilute membrane suspensions. Thus determination of these parameters is possible in the same environment where many membrane biochemical studies are performed. Application of the method is made to a model lipid bilayer membrane, dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine by labeling with UO2++ ions. We determine the precise distance between UO2++ layers on either side of the membrane as well as the width of the label on each side. This determination permits estimation of phosphate separation across single labeled bilayers in an aqueous suspension.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263700"}

TSAb was detected in 1 patient with idiopathic Addison's disease (autoimmune adrenalitis) and in 1 patient with juvenile diabetes mellitus (both of whom were euthyroid), and borderline levels were found in 1 patient with Sjögren's syndrome and 1 patient with methyldopa-induced antired blood cell antibodies.

Interference in binding of radioactive 3',5'-T2 to anti-3',5'-T2 by serum proteins was minimized by using 0.4 M phosphate buffer (pH 6.2) and merthiolate. The detection  threshold of the RIA was 2.5 ng/100 ml. Recovery of nonradioactive 3',5'-T2 added to serum averaged 99%. T4, T3, and rT3 cross-reacted with 3',5'-T2-binding sites on anti-3',5'-T2 antibody only to the extent of 0.0025, less than 0.0004, and 0.22%, respectively. 3'-Monoiodothyronine cross-reacted 1.7%. Serum 3',5'-T2 concentrations were (mean +/- SD) 6.4 +/- 2.4 ng/100 ml in 53 normal subjects, 4.2 +/- 3.5 ng/100 ml in 7 hypothyroid patients, 14.9 +/- 7.7 ng/ml in 25 patients with hepatic cirrhosis, and 14.3 +/- 5.3 ng/100 ml in 31 newborns' cord blood sera. The values in each of the latter four groups were significantly different from normal. The mean serum 3',5'-T2 concentration of 7.7 +/- 2.5 ng/ml in eight subjects in the third trimester of pregnancy did not differ significantly from normal at a time when serum T4 and T3 were clearly elevated. Oral administration of 300 microgram rT3 to 9 normal subjects led to a mean maximal increase in serum 3',5'-T2 concentration of 45% at 1 h. Total fasting in 3 obese subjects was associated with a significant increase in serum 3',5'-T2 from 8.6 to 16.3 ng/100 ml at 6-8 days; serum rT3 increased similarly, while serum T3 decreased and T4 did not change. Administration of dexamethasone (2 mg also associated with nearly parallel increases in serum 3',5'-T2 and rT3 and a decrease in serum T3. 3',5'-T2 concentrations were also measured in amniotic fluids at different stages of gestation; the mean value of 15.2 ng/100 ml at 15-20 weeks gestation was significantly higher than that of 5.8 ng/ml at 33-40 weeks gestation. Pronase hydrolysates of 9 autopsy specimens of normal thyroid glands contained (mean +/- SD) 350 +/- 144 microgram T4 and 0.24 +/- 0.15 microgram 3',5'-T2/g wet wt. On the basis of these data and those available for MCRs of 3',5'-T2 and T4, it was estimated that thyroidal secretion contributes less than 1% of 3',5'-T2 measured in serum of normal man. The various data suggest that: 1) 3',5'-T2 is a normal component of human serum; 2) almost all 3',5'-T2 in human serum derives from extrathyroidal sources; and 3) changes in serum 3',5'-2 generally parallel those in rT3.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263734"}

The program consultation process carried out to assist the nursing staff in dealing with problems in providing care and emotional support for these patients is described.  Program consultation is the process whereby an individual with expert clinical skills provides assistance in resolving a system dysfunction.  At a meeting on the gynecology unit with the head nurse, several unit staff nurses, the section social worker, and 2 physician residents, several issues were raised.  The staff noted that it was not uncommon for the patients to be hysterical both during and after the procedure.  The group identified a pressing need to improve nursing care for these patients, particularly in the area of offering emotional support.  The staff indicated that patients received little counseling or health education.  Additionally, both the medical and nursing staff experienced personal conflicts about the care of these patients.  Since comprehensive staff involvement throughout the abortion process was missing, it appeared the dysfunction involved the total system of care.  The consultation process is generally comprised of 3 main phases:  involvement of the consultant; problem solving; and a closing or culmination.  The 1st step in the involvement phase was agreement to assist the consultees in the development of an abortion counseling program.  The next step was to obtain approval for the plan.  This was followed by negotiating the consultation objectives with the staff.  2 primary objectives were identified:  to provide emotional support to abortion patients; and to assist the staff in developing an abortion counseling program.  Trust building begins as the consultees start to share limited information about their system's dysfunction.  When the consultees started talking in more detail about specific system concerns, problem solving began.  During the problem solving process, it became apparent that the staff's thoughts and feelings about abortion were the inhibiting factor which prevented them from providing comprehensive care.   The issue of abortion evoked moral, philosophical, and emotional responses within the staff members.  As a total group, the staff attempted to decrease their anxiety by using 4 major patterns:  acting out; somaticizing, psychosomatic disorders; freezing to the spot, withdrawal depression; and using anxiety in a positive manner in the service of learning.  The task during the problem solving phase was to channel the staff's anxiety into a positive direction.  The 1st intervention was to demonstrate that the patients could receive comprehensive care.  Focus was on the psychosocial aspects while encouraging staff to provide additional supportive care.  At the time the program consultation ended, 90% of the patients were receiving counseling and emotional support from the nursing staff.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263801"}

On most measures, including perceptual and achievement tests and behavior ratings by teachers, group 1 showed more improvement than either of the control groups. Several of these differences were significant (P less than .05, two-tailed). In general, the two control groups came closer to each other than to group 1. With no further intervention, follow-up one year later showed more dramatic significance. On every measure, group 1's improvement surpassed that of the control groups, and diverged from them even more than at posttest; this divergence was significant on most measures. Group 1 improved significantly (P less than .05 to P less than .01) in reading, IQ, and three behavior scales, while both control groups showed only deterioration on these measures.

To determine how a cohort of patients admitted to a mental health center in a single month used the center's clinical services over a year's time, an index of service utilization for each patient was developed. The weighted score took account of days of inpatient and day hospital care and minutes of outpatient time consumed. It was found that 15% of the cohort (48 patients of 330 admitted) used 70% of the total clinical services delivered to the cohort. Analyses of the data on patient characteristics as related to the index or score included the chi 2 test and multiple regression analysis. Not a single sociodemographic variable predicted high utilization of services. Only such clinical characteristics as severity of psychopathology as reflected in patients' diagnoses, suicidal behavior, and a history of prior inpatient treatment contributed to the prediction.

Subjects were drawn from a prospective study of couples in a home dialysis program. Thirty couples were systematically interviewed concerning social, personal, medical, and psychiatric history. After completion of the interview, subjects were asked a series of questions concerning their feelings about being interviewed. Although most subjects found the experience to be pleasant, nearly half believed it might upset other patients.

An unselected series of psychiatric admissions during a three month period were administered the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, MMPI, and a questionnaire dealing with prior drug use. Propoxyphene napsylate (Darvon-N) was made freely available on request from nurses who recorded details of the interaction on a prepared card. The nursing staff also recorded unusual incidents on the unit and evaluated daily the level of ward tension. The results indicate that, when made freely available to psychiatric inpatients, propoxyphene was used very conservatively and for appropriate complaints.

In chronic schizophrenics, disordered motor development in childhood is followed by more early cognitive and social impairment and poorer outcome; childhood schizophrenics represent the most extreme variants of this. Preschizophrenic infants show a fluctuating dysregulation of maturation--or \"pandevelopmental retardation\" (PDR)--that involves physical growth; gross motor, visual-motor, and cognitive development; proprioceptive and vestibular responses; muscle tone; and possibly arousal. Pandevelopmental retardation was significantly related to a genetic history for schizophrenia (less than .05), but not to obstetric complications. The severity of PDR was significantly related to the severity of later psychiatric and cognitive disorder (less than .01). Pandevelopmental retardation provides a \"marker\" in infancy for the inherited neurointegrative defect in schizophrenia.

As regards the quantitative and qualitative changes of the plasma aminogram, the total concentration of amino acids and the level of a few individual amino acids (glycine, alanine, taurine, and valine) were significantly elevated in full-term babies. However, no significant difference was found in the total plasma concentration of amino acids between premature infants of diabetic mothers and premature control infants, but the plasma alanine level was higher in the former. It is of interest that total plasma amino acid, alanine, and glycine levels were elevated in the asphyxiated babies.

Nasal cultures revealed a high rate of carriage of the Gmr staphylococcus in infants without clinical infection. Segregating patients according to a modified cohort system and use of careful aseptic techniques led to apparent elimination of the Gmr strain. The resistance to aminoglycosides in this strain was mediated by an aminoglycoside 6'-N-acetyltransferase and a gentamicin phosphotransferase.

Oxygen consumption by actively growing N. sicca cultures ceased immediately upon exposure to viridin B. Adenosine triphosphate production was slightly enhanced within 1 h of exposure to the bacteriocin but was subsequently repressed. The uptake and incorporation of glucose was prevented in the presence of viridin B. The bacteriocin also blocked uptake of an amino acid mixture in chloramphenicol-pretreated cells. Pretreatment or concomitant treatment with a variety of antibiotics known to inhibit specific synthetic pathways did not alter the inhibition of macromolecular synthesis produced by the bacteriocin. Although viridin B blocks protein and nucleic acid syntheses, no degradation of such macromolecules was observed. The inhibitory effects of viridin B on macromolecular synthesis and on viability required the presence of sufficient nutrients to allow active metabolism of N. sicca. The bacteriocin did not inhibit viability or macromolecular synthesis in anaerobically incubated N. sicca. Thus, active, oxidative metabolism by N. sicca cells is essential for viridin B action.

Quantitation of 5-FC was based on the linear relationship between peak area in the chromatograms and known concentrations of 5-FC in a set of serum standards (prepared by adding from 10 to 200 micrograms of 5-FC to 1-ml aliquots of pooled human serum). This method was compared with the standard microbiological method for 5-FC. Advantages of the HPLC method include: Determination of 5-FC levels within 30 min; lack of interference from other antimicrobial drugs, particularly amphotericin B; more accurate determination of true 5-FC level, particularly at concentrations of less than 25 micrograms/ml or greater than 100 micrograms/ml; and ease with which the assay may be automated for routine use.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263889"}

Elevation of serum muscle enzymes, electromyographic abnormalities, and muscle biopsy evidence of acute myositis were of confirmatory diagnostic value. The course of the disease in this study group has reconfirmed the efficacy of adrenal corticosteroid treatment in conjunction with an individualized physical therapy program and consistent followup. Prognosis for life and minimal functional disability has been good. There have been 3 deaths recorded in this series, only one of which was certain in its relationship to dermatomyositis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263908"}

Wounds inflicted by high velocity, center-fire rifles firing hunting ammunition are radically different from wounds caused by handguns or .22 rim-fire rifles. Injuries from pistol or .22 rim-fire bullets are confined to tissue and organs directly in the wound track. In contrast, high velocity rifle bullets can injure structures without actually contacting them. This is due to the temporary cavity produced by such missiles with the resultant shock waves having pressures of up to 200 atmospheres (20 MPa). Organs struck by such high velocity rifle bullets may undergo partial or complete disintegration. Hunting ammunition, as it passes through the body, tends to shed fragments of lead from its core, producing a characteristic snowstorm picture on X-ray. The maximum range at which powder tattooing of the skin occurs from center-fire rifles depends on the physical form of smokeless powder used as propellant. In a test with a 30-30 rifle, cartridges loaded with ball powder produced powder tattooing out to a range of 30 in. (76 cm), while similar cartridges, loaded with the traditional cylindrical powder, produced tattooing out to only 12 in. (30 cm) of range.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263931"}

The pink-tooth phenomenon was duplicated in human teeth by instilling into the pulp chambers whole blood and blood with the red cells hemolyzed. The change was manifested in teeth of dogs after freezing, heating, and decomposition in a moist environment. The authors postulate that pink teeth occur as a result of breakdown of red blood cells in the pulp chamber of the tooth and diffusion of hemoglobin and other serum proteins into the dentin via the dential tubules. Histochemical studies show that the brown or gray material in some teeth subjected to postmortem aging is probably hemoglobin and serum proteins.

While the morbidity (fractures, strains, sprains, and occasionally more severe injuries) associated with skiing is well recognized and considered by most physicians concerned to be distributed somewhat unevenly within the various skills of skiing, the authors have identified an exceedingly low mortality among the same population. Six individuals died as a result of injuries directly attributable to skiing. Three of these were considered to be advanced skiers and three were of intermediate skill. In three instances the environment was considered to play a role in the accident. Two of these victims were skiing out of control, one as a result of ice-covered snow and one as a result of speed in combination with a small jump. The third victim was crushed in an avalanche. One accident was completely unexplained, the skier having skied without apparent attempt at checking or change of course into a nonrecreational area. The two remaining skiers of intermediate skill both suffered injuries incident to falling forward with considerable force onto a relatively flat, hard snow surface.

In bleached hair, indigenous zinc concentrations were decreased, and absorbed zinc and cobalt concentrations were increased compared to values in normal hair. The data for absorbed zinc and cobalt were interpreted in terms of a variable concentration of metal-binding sites in the hair structure, coupled with an increased porosity induced by hair bleaching.

Thermal neutron activation analysis and instrumental gamma-ray spectrometry were used to analyze the elemental constituents in the head hair from sedentary Indian populations in the Venezuelan Amazonas region. Concentration values for 30 elements were determined quantitatively, and the presence of 7 others was detected qualitatively. The remoteness of the area and the primitive ecological conditions of the local population prevents the exposure of their biological systems to industrial and agricultural contamination, either external or metabolic. These conditions are reflected in a marked decrease of the concentration ranges of the trace elements, and a significant reduction or even the total absence of some components. The results demonstrate that closed groups of individuals exposed to similar dietary and environmental conditions exhibit closely similar trace element patterns in their hair and, consequently, in other biological tissue. This fact severely limits the use of trace element patterns in hair for forensic comparisons. The results also indicate that a large part of the constituents found in hair is probably deposited externally from ambient contamination and that any metabolic deposition occurs much more uniformly and probably in lower concentrations. Tables of analytical results in parts per million are presented, together with representative gamma-ray spectra of the hair.

The permeability of the PC membrane to 11 solutes of increasing molecular volumes (Na+, Ca++, K+, Cl-, HPO4-, urea, creatinine, uric acid, glucose, BSP, cyanocobalamine) was measured in vitro by rotating dialysis cells, as compared to that of Cuprophan PT 150. The evaluation of the PC membrane in vivo was carried out during a regular hemodialytic treatment in 5 patients using a Kiil dialyzer. The dialysance of 6 solutes (HPO4-, urea, creatinine, uric acid, hypaque, cyanocobalamine) across the PC membrane was measured at 200 ml/min blood flow rate. Both in vitro and in vivo the PC membrane showed permeability and dialysance coefficients to small molecules approximately the same than standard PT 150; the ultrafiltration rate of the PC membrane was also superimposable to that of PT 150. On the contrary, larger molecules were removed much more efficiently by the polycarbonate membrane than by PT 150.

As a result of studies in ego and developmental psychology, psychoanalytically oriented psychotherapy, empathy, countertransference, and object relations, the sphere of interest in psychoanalysis has been extended beyond the patient's intrapsychic life to embrace all aspects of the therapeutic relationship. A significant contribution to this trend has been a study of the collaborative aspects of the analytic relationship as exemplified in the concepts of therapeutic alliance and working alliance. A historical survey of writings on this subject serves as a background for a critical examination of the theoretical and clinical implications of these concepts. These studies have provided a useful conceptual basis for the understanding of many \"given\" aspects of the analytic relationship, delineating those personality attributes which make collaboration in the analytic work possible. This in turn has been helpful in making appropriate applications of psychoanalytic principles in the therapy of a broader range of clinical conditions. It is suggested that, along with the gains achieved by making explicit the rational and irrational elements of the collaborative aspects of analysis, there is also the danger of a shift of focus away from the nuclear analytic concepts of unconscious intrapsychic conflict, free association, and interpretation of transference and resistance. This danger lies especially in the tendency to see the therapeutic alliance as an end in itself--to provide a new and corrective object relationship--rather than a means to the end of analyzing resistance and transference.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263964"}

Through a transitory identification with the patient--empathy--the process of intuition is facilitated. The analyst conceptualizes the clinical data outside of consciousness. The end product is the analyst's inner response, made conscious to him through introspection. The analyst's response is a form of inner communication.

I question whether we encounter different patients today and suggest that we understand our patients better, thus making our analytic assessments and practices so different from 50 years ago.

I argue that the bulk of the analytic work should take place in the transference in the here and now. I detailed Freud's view that the transference should be encouraged to expand within the analytic situation. I suggested that the main technique for doing so, in addition to the analytic setup itself, is the interpretation of resistance to the awareness of transference by searching for the allusions to the transference in the associations not manifestly about the transference; that in making such interpretations one is guided by the connection to the actual analytic situation which every transference includes; that the major work in resolving the transference takes place in the here and now, both by way of examining the relation between the transference and the actuality of the analytic situation from which it takes its point of departure and the new experience which the analysis of the transference inevitably includes; and that, while genetic transference interpretations play a role in resolving the transference, genetic material is likely to appear spontaneously and with relative ease after the resistances have been overcome in the transference in the here and now.

Mounting direct evidences from both longitudinal developmental studies and child analyses, as well as from the more indirect evidences inferred from the genetic reconstructions of adult analyses, all argue for a developmental reconsideration of infantile neurosis to include preoedipal determinants. I have also asked that we include a measure of postoedipal determinancy as well in any such reconsideration, insofar as latency is the developmental condition for the usual resolution of the infantile neurosis. It must be emphasized that to argue for preoedipal determinancy is to say that problems with early object relatedness and early narcissistic pathology deform the oedipal conflict and its phase-adequate resolution. It does not suggest that narcissistic conflict can replace an oedipal one as the organizing conflict of the infantile neurosis during the phallic-oedipal period. The continuing parochialization of the infantile neurosis to the phallic-oedipal period has been perpetuated in great part by a technical legacy which has tended to restrict reconstructions of the infantile neurosis to the more discursively recoverable libidinal events of that period, and to exclude its preoedipal and aggressive determinants which are more apt to be expressed through the nondiscursive modes of the transference through its acts and self states.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/263969"}

Analytic insight is defined and differentiated from other types of self-knowledge and awareness and from pseudo insight; there are different levels and underlying processes in the development of insight. The importance of insight is delineated in theory and therapy, in analyst and patient, and in psychoanalysis and psychotherapy. Psychoanalysis aims to minimize noninsightful influences and to maximize insight leading to structural change. Psychoanalysis is not without a goal, but has the inexorable goal of expanded insight. Clinical limitations to gaining and retaining insight are recognized. Stress is placed on the acquisition and creation of insight and its relation to ego development, analytic progress, and adaptive mastery. Insight and creativity are complementary, and insight has creative and novel configurations. Although it is organized and consolidated in conscious verbalization, insight may proceed outside awareness. An unnoticed case of Freud's provides an example of creative insight.

In the remaining 25% of the muscles, the denervation-like activity was thought to be an effect of the local demyelinating block alone. The delay of the sensory action potential recorded above the presumed site of nerve compression most likely arises from a block of the largest myelinated nerve fibers.

The physiologic contribution of the limbic brain to emotionally induced stress is still poorly understood. The present study is designed to more specifically evaluate the role of the hippocampus in stress induced plasma 17-OHCS elevations. The conditional reflex to a sequential presentation of tone and shock was used as the stress agent in adult mongrel dogs. Plasma 17-OHCS levels were determined by the Porter-Silber method. Control and stress levels of 17-OHCS were determined before and after unilateral (left) hippocampectomy, and subsequent contralateral (right) hippocampectomy. A unilateral posterior hippocampal lesion partially attenuated (20%) the normal 17-OHCS stress response. In contrast to unilateral lesions, equivalent bilateral posterior hippocampal lesions abolished the normal 17-OHCS stress response. These observations support the thesis that the elevated 17-OHCS levels in response to the conditioning paradigm is dependent on the hippocampus. Furthermore, it is dependent upon the continuity of the hippocampal circuit and not upon the volumetric steroid binding capacity of the hippocampus. These studies also suggest that a unilaterally functioning hippocampus may be adequate to meet the physiologic needs of stress, as reflected by the 17-OHCS response.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264010"}

Wistar rats were made physically dependent on morphine by single daily intravenous injections or by a continuous i.v. infusion. Rats received the same total daily dose regardless of administration schedule. The initial daily morphine dose was 20 mg/kg, and was increased every fourth day by 20 mg/kg, until a dose of 200 mg/kg per day was reached. The rats were maintained at the highest dose level for 18 days, at which time morphine was discontinued.

Analysis of the serial position curves of recall revealed a greater recency effect for older boys and a greater primary effect for older girls.

In Stage 2, the conditional stimuli (CSs) were one of eight words, four reinforced (CS+) and four unreinforced (CS-), with taxonomic category (animals vs. musical instruments) as the discriminandum, and different subjects were given semantic, physical, or no additional CS processing tasks. The results showed sizeable and highly significant sequential dependencies in the form of greater conditional response probabilities when CS+ as opposed to CS- trials were recently experienced. These effects decreased over trials, were greater in the groups given additional processing loads, and were in some cases greater in C-form responders than in V-form responders and greater in subjects who were unable to verbalize the differential contingencies. It was concluded that the magnitude of sequential dependencies was inversely related to the subject's awareness of the differential contingencies and/or ability to use the contingency information to respond appropriately to the CS cues.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264015"}

The basic findings of these two studies are as follows: a failure of orientating and conditioning of viscero-autonomic responses, but essentially normal orienting and conditioning of a temporal muscle response in amygdalectomized animals. Small procedural differences exist between the two studies,and a possible order effect exists as a result of the use of the same subjects consecutively. However, we fell that the difference between the responses of the viscero-autonomic system and the skeletal system would still be found were all of the measures gathered simultaneously in an optimal conditioning situation. The definitive study--simultaneous viscero-autonomic and skeletal (behavioral) recording--remains to be done. Trial-by-trial analysis of the correlations or lack of correlations between these responses in such a study should be highly informative. These two studies offer substantial information relevant to the original questions. When behavior is modified by simple repetition of experience the effect of amygdalectomy is restricted to the viscero-autonomic components of orienting and classical conditioning, not to the entire spectrum of responses. The issue raised, therefore, is the significance of the viscero-autonomic components of orienting and classical conditioning. The suggestion has been proposed (Pribram, 1969) that these components serve as mechanisms of internal rehearsal necessary to the registration (as novel or familiar) of the orienting and conditioning experience.

Previous research has demonstrated that rats can be unsignaled shock to predict subsequent periods free from shock. This shock-no shock stimulus arrangement, termed an autocontingency, has appeared less likely to exert behavioral control when a traditional tone-shock contingency was simultaneously available. The present research examined the generality of CS-US contingency dominance in a conditioned suppression paradigm by using a summation test in which \"probe\" stimuli derived from tone-shock contingencies were superimposed upon responding maintained by an autocontingency. In experiment 1, an inhibitory CS accelerated responding only when responding was normally suppressed by the autocontingency. In experiment 2, an excitatory CS failed to yield conditioned suppression during an inhibitory (accelerative) period produced by the autocontingency. Unlike our previous findings (e.g., Davis, Memmott & Hurwitz, 1975), these results do not support a general notion of tone-shock contingency dominance over autocontingencies. Behavioral control by autocontingencies appears robust and \"holds its own\" in summation with both excitatory and inhibitory CSs derived from traditional contingencies.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264021"}

The crowded respondents scored significantly higher than did the uncrowded on both a depression scale and on the Health Opinion Survey. Associations between crowding and high scores on both scales were strongest among: respondents in the childrearing and middle years of life, blacks at all income levels, whites in the intermediate annual family income range of $6000 to $9999, and especially, females rather than males. Consistently, the crowded black population, and particularly, crowded white women, had much higher scores than did the uncrowded women. A multiple regression analysis showed that three variables--being a female, having a lower income, and crowding--accounted for 16.5% of the variance. The discussion emphasizes that the relationship between crowding and higher scores on indices of emotional distress is quite complicated. In crowded situations, depression may be a costly, semi-adaptive reaction to excessive interpersonal stimulation. Women living in crowded situations appear to be at high risk for depressive illness; their plight brings to mind the classic animal experiments which showed that the maternal behavior of females deteriorated in crowded situations.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264018"}

After 25 training sessions, a discriminative schedule was introduced, with the Sidman avoidance continuing in the presence of one discriminative stimulus and punishment introduced in the presence of the other. The discriminative stimuli were colors on the panel. Discriminative training also involved 25 sessions, each with a random sequence of 6 avoidance and 6 punishment segments, with 30 sec intervals between the segments. Plantar skin conductance and heart rate were recorded along with the panel-pressing behavior. The two monkeys adjusted to the discriminative schedule quite differently from one another. One animal responded at a high level and avoided very well (during avoidance) but was punished frequently (during punishment). The other animal responded less frequently and received many shocks during avoidance but almost none during punishment. The animal that showed less ability to inhibit responding (and received about four times as many shocks overall) appeared to have discriminated better temporally in spacing its responses during avoidance training. The monkey whose panel-pressing behavior resulted in more shocks also tended to show a higher tonic level of autonomic arousal. However, within-animal differences in shock frequency (between avoidance and punishment) were not similarly related to autonomic arousal. The animal that received fewer shocks overall (but more during avoidance) showed greater arousal during punishment.

It was found that in four of 6 cats in the basal secretion group and in five of 7 cats in the pentagastrin induced secretion group, gastric acid output was significantly higher in sessions in harness than in sessions in cage. These differences in acid output were due to acidity rather than volume of secretion. It was hypothesized that restriction of the animal's movements in the harness could evoke a \"reflex of freedom\" which, however, could not be accomplished because of the confinement.

The male contribution to contraceptive mismanagement and unwanted pregnancy was assessed among 109 students at the University of Melbourne in Australia.  The survey was conducted 3 months prior to annual examinations.  The interview focused on a range of subjects including socioeconomic data, extent of formal sex education, patterns of sexual behavior both in the past and in the present, contraception used within various types of relationships, reasons for contraceptive choice, and involvement in unwanted pregnancy.  The age range of the subjects was 17-35.  84% (92) of the men had experienced heterosexual intercourse.  2 main types of relationships emerged: an emotionally committed and usually long-term relationship and a usually brief and \"casual\" relationship.  30% of all subjects thought that females should always be responsible for contraception.  31% believed that contraception was a joint responsibility in steady relationships but the female's responsibility in casual relationships.  35% of all subjects felt that both partners had an equal responsibility in preventing conception irrespective of the type of relationship.  4 men believed that contraception was always the male's responsibility.  Contraceptive technique was rated adequate for 32% of the 92 sexually experienced men who always relied on either condoms, diaphragms, IUDs, oral contraceptives, or sterilization.  Intermittent contraceptive use was reported by 60% of sexually experienced men who alternated betwen reliable and unreliable methods.  Almost 1/5 of the sexually experienced men reported that they had been involved in an unwanted pregnancy.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264043"}

This positive result is predominant by a considerable degree of acidosis arising in the parturient in spite of the fact that fructose was infused at a slower rate than in the majority of papers published so far.

The daily reflux of iron in the mother and in the fetus amounted to 75% of the amount of iron cleared from the plasma compartment daily. The calculated iron transport from mother to fetus was about 1.0 mumol/day/100 g fetus. The reverse transplacental iron transport was negligible.

Epidural analgesia (bupivacaine) was administered during labor after amniotomy, in some cases supplemented by intravenous oxytocin. A higher incidence of transient uterine hypertonus was seen after blocking. Fetal heart rate changes mainly took the form of bradycardia (in association with uterine hypertonus). At birth, the maternal biochemical condition was characterized by a lower degree of metabolic acidosis, compared to normal unanesthetized controls. The fetuses displayed a slight degree of hypoxia and hypercapnia. The mechanisms underlying these modifications are discussed. Epidural blockade in combination with elective induction of labor, whether or not supplemented by intravenous oxytocin, may carry a risk. Its magnitude is considered acceptable for both mother and fetus provided they are constantly under close surveillance, limited amounts of bupivacaine are administered and the second stage of labor is kept short. However, some warnings against epidural analgesia apply to patients with placental insufficiency and very active labor. The maternal and neonatal influences of continuous lumbar epidural analgesia (CLEA;  bupivacaine) administered during labor after amniotomy were studied.  Intravenous oxytocin supplementation was employed in some cases.  Analgesic blockade increased the incidence of transient uterine hypertonus.  Fetal heart rate changes, primarily bradycardia, were associated with uterine hypertonus.  At birth, a lower degree of maternal metabolic acidosis was observed in comparison with normal unanesthetized controls.  A slight degree of hypoxia and hypercapnia was observed in the fetuses.

The application of CLEA in the elective induction of labor, whether accompanied by intravenous oxytocin or not, may have risks, though these are probably acceptable for the mother and fetus if they are closely observed, the amounts of  bupivacaine administered are limited, and if the duration of the 2nd stage of labor is kept to a minimum.

There was no effect on duration of pregnancy; no congenital abnormalities were seen in this small group of children when corticoids were used during the whole pregnancy. There was a slight decrease in birth weight and placenta weight and, when known, also in length in almost every case. However, after long-term follow-up all of these children except 1 showed a catch-up growth and were slightly above normal. Their neurological and mental development was also normal except in 1 child who was born severely asphyxiated. We conclude from these results that there appears to be no adverse effect on later growth in the use of glucocorticoids during pregnancy.

The occurrence of cribriform adenomatous hyperplasia of the endocervical glands of the uterus was examined in 92 women, in whom punch biopsies of the ecto-endocervical line were taken during the second half of their cycle. Of these, 79 women had taken combined estrogen-progestogen preparations, 9 women had taken progestogens alone, while 14 patients formed a control group. There was a significant difference only between the control group without hormones and the groups treated with hormones. The groups of patients under the various regimens of hormonal treatment displayed a varying percentage of cribriform adenomatous hyperplasia. There was a clear tendency for such lesions to be observed more frequently under the combined type of contraception than under the sequential type. These differences were not, however, significant. A correlation with specific exogenous groups of steroids could not be established. Unselected punch biopsies of the endo-ectocervical line were taken from 92 17-46 year old women in the 2nd half of their menstrual cycles.  14 of the women had not taken any hormones for over 1 year and 78 had taken hormones for 6 months or more previously.  Combination-type oral contraceptives had been taken by 49 and the sequential type by 20, while 9 had been treated with progestogens alone.  Cribriform adenomatous hyperplasia was found in 41% of the 78 patients who had taken hormones.  Only 1 of the 14 women who had not recently taken hormones showed this finding;  she had taken medroxyprogesterone acetate up to 18 months before the biopsy.

Beat-to-beat irregularity was independent of a functional alpha-adrenergic system, but at a high basic heart rate disappeared completely after cholinergic blockage and at a low rate after beta-adrenergic blockage.

In the course of pregnancy an increasing oligohydramnios becomes manifest; during labor, virtual absence of amniotic fluid is found in most cases. This oligohydramnios should alert the obstetrician to suspect Potter's syndrome; serial ultrasonography may confirm the diagnosis. Most affected children are born alive but die within a few hours due to respiratory difficulties caused by the pulmonary hypoplasia. Despite the remarkable facial characteristics of these infants, it was only in a small minority that the diagnosis was considered before autopsy. This stresses the need for a full post-mortem examination in all cases of perinatal death. The etiology is still uncertain, though multifactorial inheritance is the most likely. As a consequence, the recurrence risk is not negligible; the small number of 'familial occurrence' observations, however, does not allow estimation of a risk figure. Genetic counseling is indicated in any family giving birth to a child with bilateral renal agenesis. A family is described in which two consecutive male infants with bilateral renal agenesis were born alive and survived 19 and 38 h.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264077"}

An open-end catheter and a small strain gauge were tied and introduced into the uterine fundus during the labor of 8 parturients. As the tied probes were progressively withdrawn, the pressures given by each were simultaneously recorded. Normally the measurements are identical, but when the free ends of the probes are located between the head and the cervix, striking differences appear, the strain gauge giving much higher figures. Conversely, two intrauterine open-end catheters give the same results even if one is located in the fundus and the other is between the head and the cervix. It is suggested that the strain gauge measures a pressure which is not reliable enough because the area of application of the stress cannot be known accurately.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264078"}

The highest concentration of both receptors was observed during the periovulatory period.

Clinical grounds are the only means of diagnosis, and if actinomycosis is suspected clinically, a careful examination of a cervical smear or endometrial biopsy may let the physician prescribe antibiotics before laparotomy (or removal of an IUD, if present).  Penicillin in large doses is recommended, but the organism is sensitive to many antibiotics.  Recently, lincomycin and clindamycin have been used because of their better penetration into the circumscribed fibrotic abscess cavities which develop during actinomycosis, in addition to being effective against the secondary organims present.

Fetal heart rate decelerations resembling the late deceleration FHR pattern were produced in fetal sheep by periodic occlusion of the maternal common hypogastric artery for 30-60 sec. Transient fetal hypertension also occurred during the occlusions. Alpha-adrenergic blockade with phentolamine eliminated or markedly reduced the hypertensive response. FHR decelerations still occurred intermittently with some occlusions; however, their character was greatly altered. After parasympathetic blockade with atropine, the decelerations were replaced by periodic FHR accelerations during the occlusions. These accelerations were, in turn, eliminated by the beta-adrenergic blocking agent, propranolol. In the presence of combined parasympathetic, alpha- and beta-adrenergic blockade, the FHR remained essentially constant during the hypogastric artery occlusions in non-acidemic fetuses. FHR decelerations persisted after parasympathetic or total autonomic blockade when the fetuses were significantly hypoxic, as judged by depressed arterial blood pH and base excess values. Beat-to-beat variability of the baseline FHR persisted in the face of severe hypoxia and acidosis. These observations demonstrate that reflex mechanisms are involved importantly in the genesis of late deceleration FHR patterns in the acutely hypoxemic fetus, but that direct depression of myocardial rhythmicity becomes a factor as hypoxic acidosis develops.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264102"}

Purified, repeatedly washed, skeletal muscle myofibrils contain approx. 0.2 U of creatine kinase (CK) activity (equivalent to 2.5 micrograms CK) per milligram dry weight; this firmly bound CK activity is estimated to represent 3-5% of the total cellular CK. It had been shown previously that the myofibrillar CK, which can be quantitatively extracted at low ionic strength and purified to homogeneity, is very similar, if not identical, to the bulk MM-CK. It is shown that the two protein preparations also have the same peptide pattern after cyanogen bromide fractionation and very similar specific activities, confirming their identity. The earlier demonstration that the bound CK is specifically located at the M-lines of isolated myofibrils has been confirmed by immunofluorescence. Antibodies directed against purified MM- and BB-CK were used in the indirect fluorescent antibody technique to study the specificity of myofibril binding sites for different forms of CK. With myofibrils from adult muscle, which has only MM-CK, as well as from early developmental stages in which BB-CK is the predominant isoenzyme, M-type CK was localized exclusively at the M-line, while greater or lesser amounts of B-type CK were found at the Z-line. The data provide strong evidence that the MM-CK at the M-lines in skeletal myofibrils is not adventitiously bound but is rather an integral element in the M-line structure. The amount of CK bound is reasonably consistent with the earlier proposal that the CK molecules might be the transverse M-bridges and appears to be sufficient to regenerate all of the ATP hydrolyzed during muscle contraction.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264112"}

Peripheral nerve myelin contains a dominant low molecular weight glycoprotein called Po.

Mice and rat pups, injected with fucose, were sacrificed from 1 h to 98 days later. Series of autoradiographs were prepared. At the shortest labeling periods, newly formed product was confined to juxtanuclear Schwann cell cytoplasm, in association with regions rich in Golgi apparatus. After longer labeling periods, silver grain levels in Schwann cell cytoplasm decreased; concomitantly, there was an increase of silver grains associated with myelin. In adult animals, label associated with myelin was concentrated over outer layers of thickly myelinated fibers. Even at the longest time intervals examined (72 and 98 days), this distribution of label was largely retained. In contrast, in developing animals, label became associated with inner layers of the thicker sheaths. At no time was label observed over axons. Gel electrophoresis revealed that tritiated fucose was a suitable precursor for the faster migrating peripheral nerve glycoprotein(s). At all times examined, there was a single major peak of radioactivity that co-migrated on sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) acrylamide gels with the Po protein. Sometimes, a faster migrating shoulder of radioactivity was noted. With increased labeling periods, there was an enrichment of radioactivity associated with Po, indicative of a relatively slow turnover rate.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264114"}

The effect of the glucocorticoid analogue, dexamethasone, on the development of the embryonic pancreas was studied in tissue culture. It specifically enhances the accumulation of exocrine enzymes without altering the level of general cell proteins. The enhancement, however, is not symmetrical: the cellular levels of the two major exocrine products, amylase and chymotrypsinogen, are increased about 10- and 2-fold, respectively. Two other zymogens that are present in minor quantities, procarboxypeptidases A and B, are also increased, whereas no effect is seen on lipase A. Coordinate with these effects on synthesis, there is a dramatic change in the morphology of dexamethasone-stimulated acinar cells. Their number of zymogen granules is higher and crystalline arrays are found in the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Dexamethasone also inhibits cell replication, perhaps by selectively inhibiting the last cell divisions of the culture period. At the same time, there is a disproportionate reduction in the insulin content of cultured rudiments. We find that pancreatic development is normal in the absence of dexamethasone and that this glucocorticoid does not precociously induce the appearance of the specific secretory products, but rather enhances by a constant degree their synthesis and accumulation. Therefore, we conclude that glucocorticoids may play a modulatory but not an inductive role in pancreatic development.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264117"}

Sperm adhere to the isolated VLs. When both internal and external VL surfaces are accessible to sperm, the sperm attach only to the external surface, suggesting that the external surface may carry sperm receptor proteins not present on the internal surface.

Histogenesis of thyroid follicles in the chick embryo begins with a penetration by cells of the mesenchymal capsule into a solid epithelial primordium. Before penetration occurs, slits containing fibrillar material form between the epithelial cells. The fibrillar material is an epithelial cell product as shown by its formation within channels that form in cultures of isolated epithelial primordia. The drugs L-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid (LACA) and alpha, alpha'-dipyridyl, which interfere with collagen synthesis, prevent the formation of fibrils in cultured epithelial primordia and in cultures of whole thyroids. Furthermore, mesenchymal cells do not invade when whole thyroid primordia are cultured in the presence of either drug. The effects of alpha, alpha'-dipyridyl are reversed by washing out the drug; the effects of LACA are reversed by incubation with equimolar or greater amounts of L-proline added to the medium along with the drug. The results are interpreted to mean that the fibrillar material is collagen of epithelial origin, that the collagen in some way plays a role in mesenchymal penetration of the epithelial primordium, and that the epithelium is responsible for the pattern of lobulation within the developing gland.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264119"}

The adhesive properties of Chinese hamster V79 cells were analyzed and characterized by various cell dissociation treatments. The comparisons of aggregability among cells dissociated with EDTA, trypsin + Ca2+, and trypsin + EDTA, revealed that these cells have two adhesion mechanisms, a Ca2+-independent and a Ca2+-dependent one. The former did not depend on temperature, whereas the latter occurred only at physiological temperatures. Both mechanisms were trypsin sensitive, but the Ca2+-dependent one was protected by Ca2+ against trypsinization. In morphological studies, the Ca2+-independent adhesion appeared to be a simple agglutination or flocculation of cells, whereas the Ca2+-dependent adhesion seemed to be more physiological, being accompanied by cell deformation resulting in the increase of contact area between adjacent cells. Lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination of cell surface proteins revealed that several proteins are more intensely labeled in cells with Ca2+-independent adhesiveness than in cells without that property. It was also found that a cell surface protein with a molecular weight of approximately 150,000 is present only in cells with Ca2+-dependent adhesiveness. The iodination and trypsinization of this protein were protected by Ca2+, suggesting its reactivity to Ca2+.

Membrane addition and loss in relationship to light. The rate of disk addition to rod outer segments (ROS) varies widely in Xenopus laevis tadpoles kept in cyclic light (12L:12D). When measured as radioactive band (3H-band) displacement during the 2nd day after injection of [3H]leucine, 75% of the daily increment of displacement occurred during the first 8 h of light. During the same interval, the number of open disks at the ROS base increased more than threefold. During the last 8 h of darkness, 3H-band displacement was undetectable and the number of open disks was reduced. These observations suggest the possibility that disk addition may occur discontinuously. During the 3rd and 4th days after injection of [3H]leucine, maximal displacement of the 3H-band occurred later in the day than on the 2nd day, its movement no longer corresponding to the increase in open disks. This delay in 3H-band displacement may reflect a time delay as a result of propagation of compressive stress in an elastic ROS system. Maximal disk loss from ROS as reflected in counts of phagosomes in the pigment epithelium occurred within 1 h of light exposure, and phagosome counts remained high for 4 h before declining to a low level in darkness. Modified lighting regimes affected the daily rhythms of shedding and disk addition differently, suggesting that control mechanisms for the two processes are not directly coupled. During 3 days in darkness, disk addition was reduced 50% compared to controls (12L:12D), whereas shedding was reduced by about 40%. Although reduced in level, shedding occurred as a free-running circadian rhythm. There was no evidence of rhythmicity of disk addition in darkness. In constant light, the rate of disk addition was not different from controls, but shedding was reduced by about 80% after the 1st day. This resulted in a 21% increase in ROS length. Among animals kept on a 2.5L:21.5D cycle, the rate of disk addition was reduced by 40% while shedding was maintained near control levels, resulting in a slight decrease in ROS length. These observations indicate that normal shedding requires alternating light and darkness, and that the daily rhythm of disk addition is due primarily to daily stimulation by light.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264121"}

I. A study using whole-cell preparations in stereo high voltage electron microscopy. Pigment migration in cultured erythrophores of the squirrel fish Holocentrus ascensionis, after manipulation with K+, epinephrine, 3',5'-dibutyryl cyclic adenosine monophosphate, theophylline, and caffeine, is essentially identical to that observed in this chromatophore in situ. For such observations, the erythrophores are dissociated from the scales with hyaluronidase and collagenase, and allowed to spread on an amorphous collagen substrate, where they resemble the discoid erythrophore in situ. In this state, they are readily fixed by glutaraldehyde and osmium tetroxide, and are then critical-point dried for whole-cell viewing in the high voltage electron microscope. The organization and fine structure of the erythrophore cytoplast was stereoscopically examined after fixation of the pigment granules in four experimental states: pigment dispersed, pigment aggregated, pigment aggregating, and pigment dispersing. In the dispersed cell, granules are contained in an extensive three-dimensional lattice composed of radially oriented microtubules and a network of fine filaments 3-6 nm in diameter (microtrabeculae), whereas in the aggregated cell, the microtrabecular system is absent, and the majority of the microtubules appear displaced into the cortices on the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane. In cells fixed while aggregating, few microtrabeculae are observed, although formless thickenings are observed in the cortices, on granules, and between clumped granules. In dispersing cells, the microtrabecular system is reformed from material stored in the cortices and with the granules in the centrosphere. These observations suggest that the granules are suspended in a dynamic microtrabecular system that withdraws during pigment aggregation and is restructured during pigment dispersion. The microtubules guide linear granule motion not by defining physical channels, but by a recognizable affinity of microtubules, microtrabeculae, and granules for one another.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264122"}

To determine whether microtubules are linked to intracellular transport in absorptive cells of the proximal intestine, quantitative ultrastructural studies were carried out in which microtubule distribution and content were determined in cells from fasting and fed animals. Rats were given a 1-h meal of standard chow, and tissue was taken from the mid-jejunum before, 1/2 h, and 6 h after the meal. The microtubule content of apical, Golgi, and basal regions of cells was quantitated by point-counting stereology. The results show) that microtubules are localized in intracellular regions of enterocytes (apical and Golgi areas) previously shown to be associated with lipid transport, and that the microtubule content within apical and Golgi regions is significantly (P less than 0.01) reduced during transport of foodstuffs. To determine the effect of inhibition of microtubule assembly on transport, colchicine or vinblastine sulfate was administered to postabsorptive rats, and the lipid and microtubule content of enterocytes determined 1 and 3 h later. After treatment with these agents, lipid was found to accumulate in apical regions of the cells; this event was associated with a significant reduction in microtubule content. In conclusion, the regional distribution of microtubules in enterocytes, the decrease in assembled microtubules after a fat-containing meal, and the accumulation of lipid after the administration of antimicrotubule agents suggest that microtubules are related to lipid transport in enterocytes.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264123"}

Renal corpuscles from the juxtamedullary and subcapsular regions of the renal cortex were morphometrically analyzed in young rats and in adult rats that had been unilaterally nephrectomized or sham-operated at an early age. Mean corpuscular volumes increased 4.5-fold during normal development, and 7.7-fold as a result of compensatory hypertrophy in both cortical regions. Relative and absolute volumes were determined for Bowman's space, the glomerular tuft, and five glomerular components: epithelial, endothelial, and mesangial cells, capillaries, and the filtration membrane. Normal and hypertrophic enlargement of Bowman's space was slightly greater than glomerular growth, and the growth response of subcapsular glomeruli was greater than that of juxtamedullary glomeruli. The ratio of mean glomerular volumes between outer and inner glomeruli was 1:2 in both adult groups. Both adult groups also developed nearly identical proportions of all glomerular component structures, representing a relative decrease of epithelial cells and increase of capillaries compared to the young animals. Normal and hypertrophic maturation involved absolute increases in all glomerular cell populations, the length of capillary loops and the surface area of the filtration membrane, all nearly in proportion to the respective four- and seven-fold increases in glomerular volume. Changes in the filtration surface area are consistent with published data for glomerular filtration rates in normal and hypertrophied kidneys. The mean cell size in epithelial and mesangial populations doubled during growth, but was not greater than normal in mononephrectomized rats.

The level of orientation depends upon the mean concentration of peptide present as well as the concentration gradient. The response allows an estimation of the binding constant of the peptide to the cell. In optimal gradients, PMNs can detect a 1% difference in the concentration of peptide. At high cell densities, PMNs incubated with active peptides orient their locomotion away from the center of the cell population.

Social conditions and life quality ratings also had significant effects. People with high life-crisis scores reported more psychological distress, and poor social conditions appeared to further exacerbate their adjustment problems. Regardless of the magnitude of the crisis, quality of life ratings had sizable effects on reports of psychological adjustment.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264146"}

This effect cannot be explained by either an association of the smoking habit with malformation, premature birth, exaggerated consumption of coffee matrimonial status or paternal smoking, or by a combination of malformation, prematurity and any one of the other factors. The effect is also unrelated to the continuation or discontinuation of smoking during pregnancy. Paternal smoking seems to be associated with a reduced weight in children born to nonsmoking mothers. Between 1972 and 1974 202 cases of congenital malformation were reported among 17,970 live births in different hospitals.  175 control were compared with the group of malformed children for such factors as smoking habits of parents prior and during gestation, coffee consumption, social characteristics, and birth weight, height and head circumference of children.  Aim of the study was to investigate the possible association among these factors.  Tobacco smoking was not associated with the presence of malformations, but with a significant reduction in newborn size.  The average birth weight of chidren born to nonsmokers was 3250 g., as compared to 3028 g. for children born to smokers.  The height difference was 1.30 cm., and the head circumference difference 0.93 cm., all significant differences.

Data from the literature suggest that uric acid produced by the fetus could pass across the placenta and contribute to the observed increase in maternal plasma levels of uric acid in preeclamptic pregnancy. To investigate this hypothesis, fetal transplacental and renal uric acid clearances were estimated in 4 term pregnant rhesus monkeys by means of the steady infusion method using 14C-labeled uric acid. Allantoin clearances were determined in one pregnant monkey. Samples of maternal and fetal arterial blood were collected at regular intervals. The total amount of fetal urine produced during the experiment was collected at the end of the experiment. In addition, maternal endogenous renal uric acid and creatinine clearances were measured in 6 term pregnant monkeys. Fetal transplacental uric acid clearances appeared to be almost entirely limited by placental permeability and varied between 3.6 and 8.6 ml X min-1 X kg-1 of fetal weight; fetal renal clearances were between 0.11 and 0.20 ml X min-1 X kg-1. The allantoin clearances were found to be of the same magnitude. Maternal renal clearances of uric acid and creatinine were almost equal (mean 3.2 +/- 0.6 and 3.0 +/- 0.5 ml X min-1 X kg-1 of maternal weight, respectively).

In 3 different animals 14C-labeled uric acid was injected into the fetal circulation, the amniotic fluid and the maternal circulation, respectively. In one experiment no uric acid was administered and the fetus was deliberately killed at the beginning of the experiment. Samples of fetal and maternal blood, maternal urine and amniotic fluid were collected at regular intervals. Semilogarithmic time-activity curves were constructed and time constants were determined. An open four-compartment model (fetal-placental plasma, fetal-placental interstitial space, amniotic fluid and maternal plasma) was applied to describe the intercompartmental dynamics of uric acid. Transplacental clearance was approx. 1 ml X min-1 in both directions, maternal renal clearance was about 17 ml X min-1. These results and the calculated values of the other intercompartmental clearances support earlier results, obtained with the steady infusion method. Uric acid concentrations in amniotic fluid and fetal plasma appeared to increase significantly during the experiments. The rise in amniotic fluid levels can only be explained by accepting a yet undefined compartment in which uric acid is produced and cleared directly into the amniotic cavity. It is speculated that this additional compartment could be the fetal lung.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264166"}

Hypoperfusion of essential organs is common, though total blood flow may be significantly greater than normal. Specific therapy is directed to the specific inciting event--infection, abscess, tamponade, &c. Symptomatic therapy keeps the patient alive until we discover the specific problem or until he recovers spontaneously. The intravascular volume must be carefully monitored and corrected, using the pulmonary wedge pressure as the principal guide, and colloid osmotic pressure must be maintained. If the patient does not respond to volume augmentation alone then inotropic drugs may be needed, and of these dopamine is a selective vasodilator which redirects blood flow to the critical organs. The outstanding challenge in shock is the maldistribution of perfusion in the microvasculature. Although this may be ameliorated by the early administration of large doses of glucocorticoids, there is little convincing that these drugs constitute more than supportive therapy. Of greatest importance is reevaluation, reevaluation, and reevaluation. The patient in shock becomes a new patient every five minutes. Drugs that formerly worked, doses previously optimal--these are no guide because the situation changes so rapidly. The principles of management are to monitor vital functions, constantly vary drugs and doses, and continually attempt to put right all the parameters measured.

Arguments are presented to indicate that it should be possible to obtain a substantial improvement in prostheses control by properly training the amputee, improving the dynamics response of the prostheses, and improving the quality of the forward-path control signal. Augmentation of feedback information, although useful, may not be essential. The limitations of the myoelectric (muscle) signal as a forward-path control signal, especially for multiple degrees-of-freedom prostheses, is discussed. Most of the limitations of the myoelectric signal can be overcome if the neuroelectric (nerve) signal is used as a forward-path control signal. Results of a series of experiments which demonstrate the feasibility of constructing an electrode capable of being implanted around severed nerves and of detecting neuroelectric signals for prolonged periods of time are presented.

Genomic Xenopus borealis oocyte-specific 5S DNA (Xbo) contains clusters of 5S rRNA genes. The number of genes varies among clusters, and the distance between genes within a cluster is about 80 nucleotides. The spacer DNA between gene clusters is AT-rich and heterogeneous in length due in part to variable numbers of a tandemly repeated 21 nucleotide sequence. A cloned fragment of Xbo 5S DNA (Xbo1) containing three 5S rRNA genes has been sequenced. The sequences of Xbo1 genes 1 and 2 are very similar to the dominant 5S RNA sequence, whereas 15 of the 120 residues in the third gene are different. The sequence of gene 3 is as different from the dominant gene sequence as the X. laevis pseudogene is from the 5S RNA gene. Sequence analysis of genomic DNA shows that gene 3 is an abundant component of the multigene family. All three genes are transcribed when added to an extract of X. laevis oocyte nuclei, and a fragment of Xbo1 lacking the AT-rich spacer DNA and the 5' end of the first gene supports transcription of genes 2 and 3 in this in vitro system. Thus the 80 nucleotides preceding each 5S gene are sufficient for promoter function. Nucleic acid sequences preceding several eucaryotic genes that are transcribed by RNA polymerase III were analyzed and the following common features were found: a purine-rich region; at least one direct repeat; the absence of dyad symmetry; transcription beginning with a purine; a pyrimidine residue immediately preceding the first nucleotide of the gene; and the oligonucleotides AAAAG, AGAAG and GAC, located approximately 15, 25 and 35 nucleotides, respectively, before the start of transcription. The 10 base pair (bp) spacing between the homologous oligonucleotides is that expected for a recognition signal on one face of a DNA double helix. The extensive sequence differences between most of the spacers that precedes these genes make the three conserved oligonucleotides more striking. Parts of the 5' flanking regions of the three Xbo1 gene (-12 to -40), which include the conserved oligonucleotides, are identical. In contrast, 7 of the first 11 nucleotides that precede the third 5S RNA gene in Xbo1 differ from those that precede the first gene. The sequences following the X. borealis oocyte and somatic 5S genes are identical in 12 of the first 14 residues and contain two or more T clusters, as does the corresponding region of X. laevis oocyte 5S DNA. The 3' sequences of the Xenopus 5S rRNA genes and several other eucaryotic genes contain features in common with procaryotic transcription termination sites. The 3' end of the gene is GC-rich and contains a dyad symmetry. Termination occurs in an AT-rich region containing one or more T clusters on the noncoding strand.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264240"}

This region of the genome comprises the 1003 basepair long HindIII-I fragment and the first 75 nucleotides of the adjacent HindIII-F fragment, extending from the right-hand terminus to the sequences from which the main body of the mRNA of early region 4 is transcribed.

The hypothesis that the activity of serotonin (5-HT)-containing neurons of the midbrain raphe is subject to negative neuronal feedback regulation was examined. This hypothesis is based primarily on the observation that the administration of drugs which increase the synaptic availability of 5-HT depress midbrain raphe neuron discharge. Since the preponderance of midbrain raphe efferents are ascending, transections which interrupt both the main efferent outflow, as well as all inputs from anterior levels, ought to disrupt the functional integrity of a neuronal feedback loop. The effect of complete transections of the neuraxis placed just rostral to the midbrain raphe nuclei on the efficacy of two drugs which elevate synaptic serotonin, chlorimipramine and p-chloroamphetamine, was investigated in the chloral hydrate anesthetized rat. Such transections neither blocked nor attenuated the depressive effect of intravenously administered chlorimipramine (0.33 or 0.15 mg/kg) or p-chloroamphetamine (1.25 mg/kg) on midbrain raphe unit discharge. These results suggest that neuronal feedback involving the forebrain dose not mediate the depressive effect of drugs which elevate synaptic serotonin on midbrain raphe neuronal activity. An action at serotonergic synapses intrinsic to the midbrain raphe is suggested as an explanation for the persistence of drug effects in transected animals.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264274"}

Therefore postomortem arteriographic studies were undertaken to ascertain location of these major arteries and their branches in twelve near-term human fetuses. Comparison was made between arterial distributions in three cleft and nine non-cleft fetal palates. The question of bilateral symmetry was examined. It is known that these major branches are commonly present on both sides, but the study revealed numberous variations in each facial half in both cleft and non-cleft palates.

Intravenous administration of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) caused a dose-dependent contraction in the lower esophageal sphincter in the opossum. The smallest dose of 5-HT which caused a detectable contraction of the sphincter was 0.5 mug/kg, and a maximal sphincter contraction was produced by a dose of 40 mug/kg. Methysergide converted the contractile effect of 5-HT to a dose-dependent fall in the sphincter pressure; maximal inhibition of 77.2 +/- 7.2% of the resting pressure occurred with a dose of 40 mug/kg. The inhibitory effect of 5-HT was antagonized by tetrodotoxin, 5 MeO-DMT, and 5-HT tachyphylaxis. 5 MeO-DMT enhanced 5-HT-induced contraction of the sphincter. In the presence of 5 MeO-DMT and methysergide, 5-HT still caused a brief contraction of the sphincter; this contraction appeared to be due to stimulation of postganglionic cholinergic neurons as it was antagonized by tetrodotoxin or atropine. Reserpinization caused enhancement of the sphincter contraction by 5-HT. In the reserpinized animals in the presence of methysergide, 5-HT caused a small initial contraction followed by prolonged inhibition; atropine antagonized the initial contraction, while inhibition was antagonized by 5 MeO-DMT. These studies are consistent with the view that 5-HT exerts several different effects on the sphincter. 5-HT causes contraction of the sphincter by its direct action on the muscle and also by stimulation of cholinergic excitatory neurons. In addition, 5-HT inhibits the sphincter by stimulation of nonadrenergic inhibitory neurons.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264287"}

{"pmid": "264323", "title": "Effect of rapid curing procedures on polymer implant materials.", "content": "Effect of rapid curing procedures on polymer implant materials. This investigation of standard curing methods for PMMA implants has demonstrated that alternate means of using the air oven may produce good strength properties along with a considerable degree of porosity, when desired, in a relatively short period of time. Curing of polymers in a pressure pot offers few advantages owing to the length of time required to produce, at best, equivalent strength for the porous materials. The method also poses dangers inherent in the use of superheated salt solution or hot glycerin. The autoclave is widely used in dental offices for sterilizing and will fully and consistently cure polymers within 30 minutes. The best properties for the PMMA resin were achieved with this method (61 MPa or 9,130 p.s.i., tensile strength). The microwave oven has become relatively inexpensive in recent years, and it offers time savings of up to 90 per cent which would be beneficial in implant dentistry or in dental laboratory procedures in general. The exact condition for curing particular polymers must be carefully determined to adjust the time of irradiation in order not to under- or overcure the polymer object. Curing polymers which contain intrinsic foaming agents under pressure conditions slightly reduced the total pore volume. But, pore volume and pore diameter in the large-bead polymers are determined predominantly by packing conditions, not curing conditions. Biologic tolerance to materials cured by these methods in primates is presently being evaluated.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264323"}

In teeth with deep carious lesions severe inflammation with abscess formation was often observed in one half, whereas only scattered inflammatory cells were present in the other half.

Studies carried out in the laboratory have shown that an S-shaped cannula for trans-laryngeal jet ventilation provides a distinct advantage over conventional straight ones. Tidal volumes are larger and the cannula is more stable in position. The tendency of perforate the posterior wall of the trachea during introduction is also minimal. Blood gas data obtained from patients being operated upon with this technique of anaesthesia show that it provides very adequate ventilation and can be effectively used with balanced anaesthesia if a nitrous oxide-oxygen blender is incorporated into the jetting system. It can be put in position before induction of anaesthesia to enable preoxygenation and assist ventilation and can be left in place at the end of the operation until the patient is breathing adequately. If necessary, a tracheostomy can be done with the cannula in situ. It is not proposed that this should be the standard mode of anaesthesia or ventilation for patients undergoing operations on the larynx, but in stituations where other methods are not adequate and when significant upper airway obstruction is present, this is an excellent alternative.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264406"}

Eight months after CNS irradiation visual acuity in both patients began to decrease.

Friend virus-transformed murine erythroleukemia cells express the program of erythropoietic differentiation under the influence of the previously described, potent inducing agent, hexamethylene bisacetamide. Commitment to differentiation, defined as the ability to continue the processes of differentiation in the absence of inducer, has been examined at the single-cell level, with a combination of suspension and cell-cloning techniques. Recruitment of committed cells is shown to occur prior to the detectable accumulation of hemoglobin or the appearance of morphological changes characteristic or erythroid maturation. The stability of the commitment of murine erythroleukemia cells to differentiate is found to be dependent upon both the concentration of hexamethylene bisacetamide and the duration of exposure to the inducing agent. Under conditions less than optimal for induction, a single cell can give rise to a colony containing both differentiated and undifferentiated cells. On the basis of these findings, it is suggested that fully stabilized differentiation, in addition to the previously demonstrated requirement for the inducing agent to be present during a cell-cycle S phase, involves subsequent stabilizing event(s) caused by a direct or indirect action of the inducing agent.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264411"}

In addition, the periodontal health and oral hygiene of one group of villagers were assessed using the Russell PI and the Greene & Vermillions OHIS. Caries experience among the Yanomamö was shown to be positively associated with exposure to Western culture. S. mutans was recovered with about the same frequency from specimens taken from the teeth of Indians living at all three village locations. However, the presence of S. mutans alone did not account for the disparity in dental caries scores. The examinees had abundant and persistent accumulations of soft deposits on their teeth accompanied by markedly inflamed gingival tissues. However, periodontal pockets and loss of appreciable amounts of bone did not appear as early in life nor were they as severe as reported for some other populations which practice little oral hygiene.

To evaluate the potential benefits from elimination of dental caries in the fissures of teeth, surface patterns of decay were calculated for all surfaces of the premolar and second molar teeth of 98 children followed longitudinally for 5 years, between ages 11 and 15 years. Tooth eruption and susceptibility were also examined in relation to the administration of sealant programs. The children who were part of the control group of a fluoride dentifrice study on the Scottish Isle of Lewis, had low exposure to fluorides, high caries attack and very low restorative treatment levels; so true surface caries distribution was not masked. Variation in tooth eruption and susceptibility suggested that semiannual applications of preventive agents at each year age 10 through 15 might be required. Using hypothetical percentage reductions, the substantial potential benefits for caries control of the early use of completely retained occlusal, as well as buccal and lingual (molars), fissure sealants are conclusively demonstrated.

No inflammatory reaction was seen beneath any of the 39 deep cavity preparations in teeth without pulpal lesions and with an inlay cemented with polycarboxylate cement. In the contralateral teeth, under 39 inlays cemented with zinc phosphate cement, an inflammatory reaction was seen beneath two cavity preparations. In one, bacteria were found on the floor of the preparation. On the basis of this result and the findings of our earlier investigations, it may be warranted to conclude that neither the polycarboxylate cement nor the zinc phosphate cement has any notable irritating effect on the pulp.

Salmonella johannesburg (1, 40: b: e, n, x), a previously rare salmonella serotype, has established itself rapidly as an important and highly prevalent cause of gastroenteritis among children. The clinical features of the infection are usually mild but chronic. It has been suggested that S. johannesburg was introduced into Hong Kong through imported foods but no common vehicle could be traced as the source of infection. A thorough investigation of one paediatric ward in a general hospital revealed that non-infected patients admitted to the ward usually acquired S. johannesburg infection within 3-7 days, with or without symptoms. Thus hospital cross-infection could be a significant factor in contributing to its rapid spread in the community. Furthermore, the rapidity with which S. johannesburg spread was facilitated by (a) its tendency to produce a chronic infection, (b) its multiple resistance to antibiotics, and (c) the higher infectivity of S. johannesburg over other salmonellas endemic in this locality. These factors combined with the overcrowded conditions in many of the hospitals in Hong Kong facilitated the occurrence of hospital infection, which in its turn contributed to the spread of the infection in the local community.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264495"}

Rates of antibody prevalence rose with age in the sample of hospital staff and in that of the blood donors, particularly among males. On the other hand, in the ante-natal patients antibody prevalence declined with age. The rates in hospital staff were higher than those in blood donors of comparable age and sex, and high titres of antibody were more common in the staff group. However, no association was found between antibody prevalence and a history of clinical hepatitis, blood transfusion, or recognized contact with cases of hepatitis. Staff who had previously worked in an infectious disease hospital did not show increased antibody prevalence, indicating that simple isolation measures have been adequate to minimize exposure to hepatitis B. No particular prevalence of infection was seen in physicians and surgeons, in the nursing staff, or in workers in clinical diagnostic laboratories, hospital administration or other areas. One group clearly showing increased antibody prevalence was staff currently working, or who had worked, in the Haemodialysis Unit; this correlated with the outbreak of dialysis-associated hepatitis in 1969--70. However, no evidence suggested that significant dissemination of infection had occurred to other defined groups of hospital staff.

Organoleptic studies indicate that the oral cavity is usually the principal source of physiologic malodor associated with the early morning halitosis. In all individuals, regardless of the age or health status of the oral tissues, the most intense oral malodor is exhibited after prolonged periods of reduced saliva flow and abstinence from food and liquid. This results from normal metabolic activity in the oral cavity and is accentuated in cases with periodontal involvement. Physiologic oral malodor is transient in duration as it can be controlled to varying degrees in most individuals by oral hygiene measures, such as tooth brushing, dental prophylaxis, tongue scraping and rinsing with antiseptic mouth washes. Experimental evidence strongly suggests that putrefaction of sulphur-containing proteinaceous substrates by predominantly gram-negative oral microorganisms is the primary cause of oral malodor. Optimum putrefactive activity occurs in low carbohydrate environment, physiological pH, and anaerobic conditions. Salivary sediment containing the exfoliated epithelial cells is the primary source of substrate which exists in a disulphide state. Proteolysis and reduction of disulphide bonds precedes the formation of odor. The odor intensity of putrescent saliva and plaque head-space vapor has been correlated with the concentration of volatile sulphur compounds consisting of hydrogen sulphide, methyl mercaptan, dimethyl sulphide and dimethyl disulphide. Except for dimethyl disulphide, the same sulphur-containing compounds have been found in mouth air of all tested individuals. Hydrogen sulphide and methyl mercaptan emanate an offensive putrid odor and account for approxiamtely 90% of the total sulphur content of mouth air. In half of the population tested, methyl mercaptan and hydrogen sulphide content of early morning mouth air is sufficiently high to account for the oral malodor. Brushing studies indicate that both plaque and tongue are important sources of malodor with most of the odor emanating from the dorso-posterior surface of the tongue. None of the gas chromatographic or mass spectrometric analyses have detected the presence of amines, indole, or skatole in the head-space, mouth air, or breath vapor samples.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264535"}

A very distinct interface was seen at about 1 week after surgery between the advancing soft tissues from the flap wound surface and the attached, but severed supracrestal fibers. By 4 weeks after surgery, such distinction was absent and supragingival fiber bundles appeared continuous from their cemental attachment over to the adjacent alveolar crest. However, no evidence of cementogenesis was seen at this site which suggests that these attached fibers were attached prior to surgery. The position of the new junctional epithelium appeared to be limited to the level of the retained supracrestal fiber fragments. However, in areas where cementum, and thereby attached fibers, had been removed during surgery, an altered epithelial adherence was usually seen. This altered adherence was in the form of a long junctional epithelium or a short junctional epithelium on top of parallel oriented collagen fibers. The latter also appeared to adhere to the tooth surfaces.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264546"}

The selected areas were periodontal pockets ranging in depth from 6 to 8 mm. The bone deformities were of crater-form configuration. The buccal and lingual plates were removed. Later, the dehydrated speciemns were embedded in bioplastic and cut to sections 70 mu thick. Controls were healthy pieces of bone taken from the same patient in unaffected areas. Yellow fluorescent tetracycline labeling was observed in both periosteal and trabecular bone. In the trabecular bone, labeling was exhibited in the lamella of some Haversian systems, away form the bone resorption. There was a direct relationship between bone resorption and bone apposition as seen by the presence of tetracycline in the buccal and lingual alveolar plates. Controls showed only minimal labeling.

The amino acid compositions of pellicles formed in vitro from submandibular, parotid, and mixed saliva were determined and compared. Samples of the total pellicles as well as the relatively acid-soluble supernates and acid-insoluble sediments were collected and analyzed. In each instance striking differences in composition between the pellicle and the saliva from which it was formed indicate that pellicle formation is a highly selective process. The similarity in composition of the total and fractionated submandibular-parotid pellicle samples indicated a representative dissolution of the total mixed pellicle in the collection acid, rather than a preferential dissolution of part of the total pellicle. In the case of the pellicles formed from the isolated submandibular and parotid salivas, the supernate and the total pellicle were quite similar in composition, but differed somewhat from the sediment. Those results indicate that most of the salivary pellicle is soluble in the dilute acid used to collect the pellicle, and that a portion of the total submandibular or parotid salivary pellicle dissolves preferentially. The compositions of the total parotid pellicle and the parotid supernate and sediment were remarkable similar to the counterparts formed from submandibular saliva alone, suggesting similar origins and mechanisms of formation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264548"}

The DID measures the degree of delegation existing in a dental practice at a given time. Its four elements are: 1) the delegable tasks, 2) the personnel involved, 3) the task frequency, and 4) the task time. The formula yields the ratio of the Maximum State of Delegation to the Actual State of Delegation or, in other words, the theoretical potential for delegation divided by the observed state of actual delegation. Both are expressed in cost-related terms based upon the relative costs of the personnel in the practice. The DID has merit as a diagnostic tool to aid the practitioner in assessing his/her staff use. For example, a low DID might indicate an overqualified staff for his/her patient load, or underutilization of auxiliaries. The DID can also be used to compare levels of delegation between several practices at a given point in time. Such an application was made for 17 Washington private practices. In using the DID, it was found that delegation levels varied among the 17 practices; however, on the average the degree of delegation approached only one third of the maximum allowed under law. The DID, in its direct approach to task delegation, is a concept that can be applied to dental practices and, with appropriate adaptation, to other health care settings as well. All the influences on the DID and delegation, however are not fully understood and further study is warranted.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264561"}

Its onset time is reasonably rapid, its duration and extent are satisfactory for clinical purposes, and no toxic reactions were noted in the 100 injections given. However, its predictability for +4 anesthesia is poor, and there is wide variation in the onset time. Finally, the success rate compared with that for lidocaine, mepivacaine, or prilocaine for the same dosage and areas, with the use of the same criteria, is not good enough in my opinion to qualify carticaine as a general-purpose anesthetic on a par with standard lidocaine.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264643"}

This paper describes the chemical synthesis of a compound with voltage-gating characteristics similar to those observed in nerve membranes. For alamethicin (ALA), a natural antibiotic that induces such properties in lipid bilayer membranes, there are two proposed structures, one a cyclic and the other an open chain peptide. The open chain sequence (ALA-o) proposed by Martin and Williams [(1976) Biochem. J. 153, 181-190] was synthesized by stepwise solid-phase condensation of four fragments prepared by solid-phase synthesis. The product, purified to homogeneity, was not identical with the main component of natural ALA. Nevertheless, in lipid bilayer membranes the exponential dependence of conductance on voltage and the dependence of conductance on a high power of the peptide concentration were qualitatively similar for ALA-o and for natural ALA. Like ALA, ALA-o showed the characteristics of a channel-former, although the single-channel conductances were less well defined for the synthetic compound. This work establishes that a cyclic structure is not a necessary condition for a peptide to induce voltage-dependent conductances in membranes and that ALA-o possesses all the structural elements required for such an activity.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264663"}

The three components have overlapping methionine-containing tryptic peptides. All three actins are found to be present in actomyosin and cytoskeleton preparations from chick embryo fibroblasts. Identification of alpha-actin as the major actin from sarcomere-containing cells is confirmed by comparing embryonic chicken pre- and post-fusion myoblast cultures.

The ability of these strains to develop normally under nonpermissive conditions suggested that flagellin synthesis and stalk formation are dependent on the completion of different cell-cycle steps: the periodicity of flagellin synthesis is achieved by coupling it to either DNA chain elongation or completion, and stalk formation is dependent on a later step in the cell-division pathway.

The effects of similar attractive interactions between NH groups and S atoms on the potential function for rotation about C-C bonds also are considered.

The length of the long 5' tail is inversely related to the length of the unfinished rod. Surprisingly, both tails appear to protrude from the same end of the particle. These observations suggest that the strand of RNA coming out of one end of the particle loops back along the length of the rod so as to appear at the opposite end. The \"looped-back\" tail almost certainly passes down the empty central channel of the incomplete rod. The findings are compatible with a model of tobacco mosaic virus assembly in which the RNA inserts itself beneath layers of incoming protein from within the central channel.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264669"}

Soluble, glutathione-stimulated delta 5-3-ketosteroid isomerase (EC 5.3.3.A) activity of human and rat liver resides in very basic proteins with molecular weights of about 45,000 which are present in high concentrations in these tissues. Physiochemical and immunological evidence is presented for the identity of the proteins responsible for this enzymatic activity with the glutathione S-transferases (RX:glutathione R-transferase, EC 2.5.1.18) that conjugate glutathione with a variety of electrophilic compounds. In the rat, the steroid isomerase is associated principally with the major transferase (B), which is also known as ligandin, and has the versatility to bind various hydrophobic compounds such as bilirubin, corticosteroids, and metabolites of a number of carcinogens. Other rat liver-glutathione S-transferase species are far less active in the steroid isomerization reaction. The delta 5-3-ketosteroid isomerase activity of human liver is more uniformly distributed among the five glutathione S-transferases that have been described. Steroid isomerization differs fundamentally from other reactions promoted by glutathione S-transferases in that glutathione is not consumed in the reaction. However, because the transferase enzymes promote nucleophilic attack by glutathione on a variety of largely foreign organic substrates, a similar mechanism may be involved in the isomerase reaction. Delta 5-3-ketosteroids are among the few known naturally occurring substrates for these enzymes.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264670"}

Active antibodies were eluted by a moderate concentration of a chaotropic agent, but not by high ionic strength buffers or acidic buffers. The active fractions were identified as IgG by ultracentrifugation and immuno-electrophoresis. These antibodies gave precipitation bands with CB-protein conjugates and this reaction could be reversed in the presence of free CB. The GlcNAc-bound fraction quantitatively quenched the fluorescence of O-(4-methylumbelliferyl)-glucosides of GlcNAc and CB, while the CB-bound fraction quenched only the glycoside of CB; other O-(4-methylumbelliferyl)-glucosides were not quenched. Among eleven monosaccharides and oligosaccharides, only GlcNAc, CB, and tri-N-acetylchitotriose were able to inhibit the precipitation of antibodies against CB with CB-protein conjugate. These antibodies failed to agglutinate erythrocytes from various species but did agglutinate transformed cells and mouse lymphocytes.

Depending upon the extraction procedure employed, 0.4-0.6% of the radioactively-labeled total cellular RNA applied to the column annealed to globin complementary DNA cellulose. The annealed RNA was treated with formaldehyde and analyzed by formaldehyde/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Mature globin mRNA and an RNA migrating at approximately 15 S were observed. No globin mRNA containing sequences larger than 20 S were present. The 15S RNA was partially resolved from mature globin mRNA by neutral sucrose density gradient centrifugation.

We have solved the three-dimensional structure of this complex by x-ray crystallography and have observed two distinct intercalative binding modes by this drug to miniature Watson-Crick double helical structures. The first of these involves a pseudosymmetric stacking interaction between 9-aminoacridine molecules and guanine-cytosine base-pairs.

Bacterial flagella are semi-rigid helices that undergo true rotation. In peritrichously flagellated bacteria (e.g., Escherichia and Salmonella) there are many flagella on each cell; during translational cell movement these operate as a coordinated bundle that actively disperses upon reversal of the rotation sense. The dynamic behavior of a set of helices originating on separate rotational axes is explored by a working model, geometrical analysis, and hydrodynamic calculations. A critical relationship exists between the interaxial separation and phase difference of parallel helices with overlapping domains; in the subcritical case the filaments are not intertwisted, whereas in the supercritical case they are intertwisted in the same sense (left-handed) as the helices, with one twist per helical turn. During counter-clockwise rotation (the sense operative in forward swimming) any preexisting twists of this kind are automatically cancelled and the helices brought progressively into phase. Hydrodynamic calculations suggest that some wrapping then occurs in a right-handed sense, opposite to that of the helices; this necessitates a distortion from true helical geometry which is minimized by maintaining a coaxial in-phase relationship. A highly coordinated helical bundle results that is capable of operating smoothly for an indefinite period, in agreement with the observed behavior of swimming bacteria. During reverse rotation, the supercritical case develops to cause jamming of the bundle, as has been observed with bacteria in high-viscosity medium. The explosive dispersal of the bundle during reversal in low-viscosity medium is a consequence of a complicating phenomenon, namely, a drastic change in flagellar quaternary structure. The overall conclusion is that bundle formation and function are perfectly compatible with a rotational mechanism for the individual flagella.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264676"}

AD6, a mutant derived from 3T3 Balb/c cells, is characterized by low adhesion to substratum, round shape, increase in surface microvilli, increase in agglutinability by concanavalin A, and loss of directional motility. These properties are often observed in transformed cells. However, the mutant has normal growth properties and anchorage-dependence of growth, and it does not form tumors. In AD6, the biosynthesis of complex carbohydrates and glycoproteins is impaired because of a block in the acetylation of GlcN-6-P. This defect is responsible for all the surface alterations because feeding of GlcNAc to AD6 cells corrects the defects in the synthesis of complex carbohydrates and the exposure of glycoproteins at the outer surface of the plasma membrane. Parallel to this biochemical reversion, there is full restoration of the altered biological properties. In contrast, GlcNAc has no effect on the morphologic features of two lines of transformed cells. Our results suggest that the carbohydrate portion of cell surface proteins has an important role in adhesion and related aspects of cell behavior. The fact that a defined alteration of the cell surface induces many properties often encountered in transformed cells, without affecting control of cell division, strongly suggests that these alterations in properties are not sufficient to account for the loss of growth regulation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264677"}

The clones studied were either MGI+ (that can be induced to form Fc and C3 rosettes), a stage in the differentiation of myeloid cells, or MGI- (that cannot be induced to form these rosettes). All six cultured clones of MGI- cells from myeloid leukemias independently produced in six separate animals showed a loss of a piece of one chromosome 2 and this abnormal chromosome was maintained in leukemias derived from the cultured cells. This loss was not found in MGI+ clones or lymphoid leukemias. Five MGI+ mutants, derived from an MGI- clone with a loss of a piece of one chromosome 2, one normal chromosome 12, and two translocated chromosomes 12, maintained the abnormal chromosome 2 but lost either the one normal or one of these translocated chromosome 12.

Few if any exchanges were induced in lysogens carrying uvrA(-), uvrB(-), or recA(-). The increase in the frequency of recombination was presumably due to the psoralen damage in the phage DNA molecules and the action of host cell repair and recombination enzymes. The production of crosslinks in the phage DNA by psoralen and 360 nm light was measured by sedimentation in alkali. It showed second-order kinetics indicative of a two-photon reaction. In contrast, first-order kinetics had been reported for monoadduct formation. Second-order kinetics, similar to those for crosslink production, were found for genetic exchanges in homoimmune crosses. Presumably, crosslinks, rather than monoadducts, cause most of the exchanges. Because the uvrA(-) gene product (UV-endonuclease) was required, it is likely that recombination was initiated by DNA molecules cut at crosslinks.

Plasma gluccose fell 15-25% during the initial 1-2 hr, but subsequently rose to hyperglycemic levels (130-155 mg/100ml) by 3-6 hr, despite persistent hypoglucagonemia. Glucose production initially declined by 40-50%, but later rose to levels 15-20% above basal rates while peripheral glucose utilization fell to levels 20-30% below basal, thereby accounting for hyperglycemia. Infusion of exogenous insulin so as to restore plasma insulin to preinfusion values or cessation of the somatostatin infusion with restoration of endogenous insulin secretion resulted in a prompt reduction of plasma glucose to baseline values. Prevention of the initial somatostatin-induced hypoglycemic response by intravenous infusion of glucose failed to prevent the delayed hyperglycemia. We conclude that somatostatin caused only transient hypoglycemia in normal subjects and that hyperglycemia eventually developes as a consequence of insulin deficiency.

Both homologous oocyte RNA polymerase I and III and E. coli RNA polymerase transcribed the 5S genes in deproteinized DNA to approximately the same extent (severalfold above random) and both the sense and anti-sense strands of the gene were transcribed. It appears, therefore, that both chromatin-associated components and a purified RNA polymerase III are necessary and sufficient for the selective and accurate transcription of the 5S RNA genes in vitro.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264693"}

Reticulocytes, like other cells, selectively degrade certain abnormal proteins by an energy-dependent process. When isolated rabbit reticulocytes incorporate the valine analog 2-amino-3chlorobutyric acid (ClAbu) in place of valine, they produce an abnormal globin that is degraded with a half-life of 15 min. Normal hemoglobin, in contrast, undergoes little or no breakdown within these cells. Cell-free extracts from reticulocytes have been shown to rapidly hydrolyze these abnormal proteins. The degradative system is located in the 100,000 X g supernatant, has a pH optimum of 7.8, and does not appear to be of lysosomal origin. This breakdown of analog-containing protein was stimulated severalfold by ATP, and slightly by ADP. AMP and adenosine-3':5'-cyclic monophosphate had no significant effect on proteolysis. Experiments with ATP analogs suggest that the terminal high energy phosphate is important in the degradative process. Proteolysis in the cell-free system and in intact reticulocytes was inhibited by the same agents (L-l-tosylamido-2-phenyl-ethylchloromethyl ketone, N-alpha-p-tosyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone, N-ethylmaleimide, iodoacetamide, and o-phenanthroline). In addition, the relative rates of degradation of several polypeptides in the cell-free extracts paralleled degradatives rates within cells. Thus, a soluble nonlysosomal proteolytic system appears responsible for the energy-dependent degradation of abnormal proteins in reticulocytes.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264694"}

The order of the cyanogen-bromide-derived peptides from alpha 1 (III) chains of pepsin-solubilized calf skin collagen was found to be 3A-3B-3C-7-6-1,8,2-4-5-9A-9B. The amino-acid sequences of the NH2-terminal region of all peptides were determined by Edman's automated degradation procedure. The alignment of the peptides along the peptide chain was established by searching for the best homology between the partial sequences of the cyanogen bromide peptides from the alpha 1 (III) chain and the completely known sequence of the alpha 1 (I) chain. Characterization of three cyanogen-bromide-derived double peptides provided confirmation of the deduced order. A sequence Gly-Met-Hyl-Gly-His-Arg-Gly-Phe- was established near the NH2-terminus and a sequence Gly-Ile-Hyl-Gly-His-Arg-Gly-Phe near the COOH-terminus of the alpha 1(III) chain. Identical sequences have been found in the corresponding regions of the alph 1(I) chain. They include hydroxylysine, a site for intermolecular crosslink formation.

This effect may represent an increase in affinity for Mg2+ and/or a decrease in sensitivity of the enzyme towards inhibition by free ATP. Both of these inotropic hormones also increase maximum velocity. Pretreatment of the membrane-bound enzyme with EDTA, to remove available divalent cations, almost eliminates persistent stimulation by guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate [Gpp(NH)p]. Addition of Mg2+ to the preincubation medium restores the capacity of Gpp(NH)p to acutely activate the enzyme. These results indicate that Mg2+ interacts with the nucleotide (GTP) regulatory site.

In order to achieve this, it is essential to put to good use the experience acquired by cytologists and colposcopists and to constantly update and improve the technique employed. The population must be made aware of the benefits of the simultaneous use of these detection methods through health education. The possibilities of diagnostic prediction of cytology are already well known. By means of colposcopy, we may classify the findings as follows: 1) normal, 2) with benign pathology, 3) suspicious, requiring additional frequent control, 4) highly suspicious of neoplasm, 5) malignant. Using the combined methodology, we were able to detect the flaws in use of both methods separately. Considering the carcinoma in situ and microcarcinoma, the results amounted to 16.6 per cent of cytologic false negatives and 12.9 per cent of colposcopic false negatives, whereas applying both methods simultaneously, we obtained only 2.7 per cent of false negatives. As we mentioned previously, this percentage of error may be attributable to technical faults, associated pathology and/or anatomic-histologic localization.

One case of intramucous and two of \"early\" invasive carcinoma revealed malignant cells which did not differ from those of the advanced cases. In these cases as well as in some of the advanced ones, atypical epithelial cells were found in addition to the malignant ones; these cells could have derived from the histologic areas of atypical hyperplasia of the gastric mucosa surrounding the carcinoma. 14/15 cases of advanced diffuse carcinoma of the stomach could be cytologically identified on the basis of a scanty cellularity and the presence of rather small, monomorphic poorly differentiated cells with a high N/C ratio. The cytologic diagnosis of the mixed-type carcinoma was made in 2/5 positive cases on the basis of the presence of an admixture of both cell types described above. In two cases of the mixed-type carcinoma, only intestinal type cells were found. In the smears of nine cases of intestinal type carcinoma, one of which was intramucous, and of one case of mixed-type carcinoma, the tumor cells could not be specified. 13/78 cases (16.7%) showed negative cytology.

Mortality rates from cancer of the cervix uteri, as well as for all uterine cancer, have shown a remarkable decrease in recent years in Louisville, Kentucky. For women ages 30-39 the decrease was 70.8 per cent, and for ages 50-59, 69 per cent. No change in rates was noted for women ages 70 years and over. These changes correlate well with the success of recruitment for screening of women according to age. The high degree of success in screening the low socioeconomic quartile is thought to be of prime importance. The average annual age adjusted mortality for uterine cancer other than cervix also fell impressively. In contrast to Louisville, mortality from cervical cancer in England and Wales, with the exception of the younger age group, has remained fairly constant over the past decade. Denmark showed no mortality decline between 1961 and 1971. Like England and Wales and unlike Louisville, screening there had not achieved high population coverage and the screening as does exist was not commenced as early.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264759"}

The spleens of rats were studied by light and electron microscopy during the course of an acute myelogenous leukemia, with special reference to infiltration of leukemic myeloblasts in the spleens and to the correlation of leukemic cell infiltration with splenic hematopoiesis and splenomegaly. Leukemic myeloblasts infiltrated the cordal space of the red pulp. Many of them appeared in groups. Even in spleens which were heavily infiltrated, leukemic myeloblasts did not penetrate the while pulp. Massive infiltration and proliferation of the leukemic myeloblasts in the red pulp resulted in splenomegaly. The spleen increased its hematopoietic activity, while the medullary hematopoiesis diminished due to the invasion of leukemic myeloblasts in the bone marrow. Compensatory splenic hematopoiesis occurred in most of the leukemic spleens, but diminished in spleens which were very heavily infiltrated with leukemic myeloblasts. Thus, the degree of splenomegaly and splenic hematopoiesis did not necessarily correspond to the percentage of leukemic myeloblasts in the bone marrow, but rather related to the number of leukemic myeloblasts present in the spleen. A possible role for the splenic sinus walls in promoting compensatory hematopoiesis in the spleen is discussed.

Radiation exposure from panoramic equipment can be reduced significantly by use of smaller film, adjustment of the beam height to the height of the smaller film, and careful positioning of patients. These techniques have no adverse effect on the quality of the diagnostic information needed in dentistry. In addition to describing methods of reducing exposures from panoramic machines, this study demonstrates that the use of a barrier collar during static, cephalometric examinations can appreciably reduce thyroid exposure. Since the objective is to obtain diagnostic information from the film without irradiating the thyroid, the application of a lead-impregnated collar is a minor inconvenience, easily borne by the patient and operator. It should be noted that the use of the collar during panoramic examinations affords little or no protection since the relative motion of the panoramic machine places the axis of movement inside the head and neck of the patient. While the evolution of diagnostic radiology may have reached a high level of technical refinement of equipment and film the clinician still must avoid unnecessary exposure for X-ray examinations and must carefully select the best type of examination to be used for each patient. For example, a complete panoramic examination to determine the position of a known unerupted third molar tooth is probably not an exercise of good judgment since other examinations, such as periapical, could yield the same information with less exposure. Decisions must be made with good judgment, value being placed on relative risks versus the benefits of diagnostic yield.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264773"}

Serial cephalometric radiographs of 165 children have been used to analyze age-associated changes in the saddle angle (Ba-S-N). There are mean decreases in this angle of about 5 degrees from birth to 2 years in those with either a Class I or a Class II occlusion; later changes are slight. The mean values tend to be slightly smaller in Class I boys than in those with Class II. Generally, the means are slightly larger in boys than girls but in adults this sex difference is in the reverse direction while remaining slight. It is reasonable to conclude that change is dominant in the first two years. Even after pubescence the angle is not constant but the changes are much smaller. The variability of the angle is greater for Class II than Class I individuals and its variability is greater in girls than boys after 12 years. Almost all the median increments are negative; that is, the flexure of the cranial base decreases with age particularly if the increments begin at the first available radigraph. This tendency is more marked in Class II then Class I occlusion. The increments are markedly variable in each occlusion group with large changes occurring in some individuals. Correlations between the saddle angles at different ages are high; this shows a marked constancy of the relative levels for individuals. The correlations between increments are small; presumably this reflects the small sizes of these increments relative to error terms. In the present group the saddle angle is positively correlated with Ba-N length, but the correlation between the saddle angle and either cranial vault length of stature are near zero. These findings show that there is marked constancy within individuals after the age of 2 years although, as noted earlier, there is marked variability in the size of the angle at particular ages and the serial data for some unusual individuals show large changes that are generally decreases.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264777"}

New techniques, better understanding of the pathophysiology of cardiac problems, and the effective use of new drugs constantly improve the results of operation. Greater experience in anesthetic management and improved postoperative care will contribute much to the success of this youngest surgical specialty. This review outlines the current principles of anesthesia and postoperative care of patients undergoing cardiac operations. Preanesthetic evaluation provides guidance for anesthetic management, supportive techniques, and postoperative care. During operations, light anesthesia is usually sufficient for patients with cardiac disease and minimizes myocardial depression. Monitoring must provide data on the physiological changes that are taking place from moment to moment during and after operations. Perfusion produces a highly abnormal state, and the severity of complications varies with its duration. Introduction of new drugs has also facilitated hemodynamic management during and after operations.

Electrolyte disturbances in leukemia can be the result of the disease process or drug therapy. One group of electrolyte abnormalities is related to the stage of the leukemic process. Included in this group are newly diagnosed patients who may show elevated serum potassium, phosphorus, and magnesium--a result of their release from malignant cells after cytotoxic therapy or their accumulation due to urate nephropathy. Patients in remission usually have normal serum electrolyte concentrations, but acute leukemia patients during relapse may have hypokalemia, hypophosphatemia, and hypomagnesemia. This imbalance may be related to cellular uptake of these electrolytes in the presence of inadequate dietary intake. Other factors contributing to electrolyte derangements, and related to the leukemic process, include hyponatremia and hypochloremia secondary to the SIADH, hypokalemia in acute monocytic or acute myelomonocytic leukemia due to lysozyme-induced tubular damage, hypercalcemia possibly secondary to leukemic infiltration of bone or parathyroid glands (with PTH release), or production of a PTH-like substance by leukemic cells. Nonspecific factors related to the disease process which may aggravate the electrolyte imbalance include gastrointestinal loss through nausea, vomiting, and malnutrition. The drug-related electrolyte abnormalities include cyclophosphamide- and vincristine-induced SIADH; decreased serum sodium, chloride, potassium, and calcium concentrations as a result of polymyxin B nephrotoxicity; hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia secondary to amphotericin B; hypocalcemia, hypophosphatemia, and hyperphosphaturia due to L-asparaginase-induced hypoparathyroidism; hypokalemia due to a nonreabsorbable anion effect of antibiotics in the distal tubule or changes in membrane ionic transport of all cells by large doses of antibiotics. Electrolyte disturbance in leukemia thus have a multifactorial pathogenesis which can best be delineated according to the stage of the leukemic process and the drugs being used. Recognition of the cause or causes in a particular patient is essential for an effective approach to management.

Radiotherapy is important in the treatment of leukemia and lymphoma of children. In acute lymphocytic leukemia administration of cranial irradiation early during chemotherapy-induced remission prevents initial meningeal relapse. When cranial irradiation is combined with a 3-year course of multiple drug systemic chemotherapy approximately one-half of the children remain in complete remission for 5 years or more and are at little risk of relapse. Preventive cranial irradiation is effective in children with acute myelocytic leukemia, also, but this does not affect survival because of the inadequacy of chemotherapy in controlling bone marrow disease. Low dose palliative irradiation can be helpful in caring for some children with obstructive, painful or disabling leukemic lesions. In Hodgkin's disease of children radiotherapy is effective in curing stages IA, IIA, and IIIA disease and contributes to chemotherapy control of stages IIIB and IV disease. The role of radiotherapy in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is less clear. Children with T-lymphoblastic lymphoma tend to have rapid dissemination to bone marrow and meninges and appear to benefit more from multiple agent chemotherapy and preventive meningeal irradiation. Children with B-lymphoblastic lymphoma usually benefit from cyclophosphamide therapy; the value of irradiation is yet to be established. However, radiotherapy is frequently curative in stage I B-lymphocytic nodular and histiocytic lymphomas. The indications for radiotherapy in children with leukemia and lymphoma are constantly changing.

It is inhibited by chlorpromazine (30 mg/kg i.p.) injected 60 min before the tranylcypromine. However, chlorpromazine injection for 4 days either at a dose of 30 mg/kg once daily or 5 mg/kg twice daily results in an enhanced hyperactivity response to tranylcypromine and L-tryptophan administration 24 h after the final dose of chlorpromazine. 2 One injection of chlorpromazine (30 mg/kg) did not produce enhancement 24 h later and the inhibition of the tranylcypromine/L-tryptophan hyperactivity observed after acute chlorpromazine injection was seen if the rats were given tranylcypromine and L-tryptophan 1 h after the fourth chlorpromazine (30 mg/kg) dose. 3 Chlorpromazine (30 mg/kg) once daily or 5 mg/kg twice daily for 4 days resulted in rats displaying enhanced behavioral responses to the suggested 5-HT agonist 5-methoxy N,N-dimethyltryptamine (2 mg/kg) on day 5. 4 Chlorpromazine (30 mg/kg) once daily for 4 days produces a slight increase in brain 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) concentration on day 5, but no difference in the rate of brain 5-HT synthesis or the rate of 5-HT accumulation after tranylcypromine and L-tryptophan administration. 5. There is some evidence that chlorpromazine blocks 5-HT receptors. It has also been observed that several other neuroleptic drugs do not produce enhanced 5-HT responses after repeated administration. It is suggested therefore that the enhanced behavioural response to 5-HT receptor stimulation following repeated chlorpromazine administration may be because this drug blocks 5-HT receptors.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264797"}

Future exploitation or radiotherapy in adults with leukemia will be dependent upon improved communication and cooperation between the various medical specialists concerned with patient care in these diseases.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264799"}

On the basis of its pharmacologic action Deanol (dimethyl aminoethanol) was hypothesized to be of benefit in the Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome. In one case report the addition of Deanol to perphenazine did not result in an improvement of uncontrollable movements or involuntary speech utterances. Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome is a condition combining organic and psychogenic features existing in the interface between two etiologies. Classically the disease begins in childhood and is characterized by the appearance of sudden involuntary movements, involuntary speech utterances frequently consisting of curse words (coprolalia), and imitative phenomena such as echolalia and echopraxia. Neurotic symptomatology such as anxiety and obsessive thinking have also been reported. This condition is regarded neuropharmacologically as a dopaminergic state that responds to drugs with antidopaminergic activity e.g. the phenothiazines and butyrophenones. Deanol (dimethyl aminoethanol) is a putative cholinergic agonist and has reported effectiveness in conditions where there is a predominance of dopaminergic versus cholinergic activity, e.g. levodopa-induced dyskinesias, neuroleptic induced tardive dyskinesia, and Huntington's chorea. Because of its effectiveness in dopaminergic states it was hypothesized that Deanol could also be of benefit in the Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264808"}

The specificity of the reaction was tested by a spectrofluorometric analysis of cell extracts. In normal blood, the basophils emit a bright yellow fluorescence, whereas neutrophils, eosinophils and platelets react less consistently and when they do, they give off a less intense yellow or blue emission. In normal marrow, basophils react strongly whereas the metamyelocytes and later granular cells show only a weak yellow or blue fluorescence. In chronic myeloid leukaemia, cells of the granular series emit a strong yellow fluorescence at all stages of development, although still less intense than the basophils.

Findings were as follows: The residual dispersant particle was less hard than the gamma 1 matrix, but the ring around it was much harder than the gamma 1 matrix or the residual gamma particle. The improved mechanical properties seem to be the result of the presence of this ring. The gamma 2 phase was absent in this amalgam. The absence of gamma 2 phase seems to improve chemical resistance, to prevent the deformation by mercuroscopic expansion of amalgam margins, and thus to decrease their fracture potential. The minute gamma 1 crystals found adjacent to the ring around the residual dispersant particle seem to indicate that they were late in crystallization, resulting in low early strength.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264863"}

Biotypes a and b were rarely observed; c was the most common in each of the populations; and d and e were more prevalent in the Saudi Arabians than in the other groups.

Lymph capillaries originated as blind sacs in the odontoblastic layer and in the pulp proper near the pulpo-odontoblastic border. They drained into small thin-walled collecting vessels that were irregular in shape and showed great variability in their drainage patterns. Communications between these vessels were very common. The larger conducting lymphatic vessels accompanied the blood vessels and nerves in their course through the pulp. They could be identified by their thin walls and small size. The large caliber lymphatic vessels contained valves, a structure not present in the veins of the same size. The conducting lymphatic vessels passed through the roots as individual units without draining into a large single vessel.

A total of 166 Ami and 128 Atayal adolescents were included from their original living area, the Hwa-Lien Hsin and Wa-Lai District, Taiwan, Republic of China. Oral examination was done carefully and caries incidence, periodontal index, and Angle's Classification combined with OFI were included. After that, hydrocolloid impressions were taken, and dental casts were immediately made. The mesiodistal and buccloingual crown diameters and also the arch depth and width were measured using a sliding caliper. Dental morphological traits, such as shovel-shaped incisors, Carabelli's cusp, protostylid, and upper and lower molar groove patterns were observed and classified, and the results are given with statistical analysis. The aborigines have a quite low incidence of dental caries and periodontal disease which may be related to their dietary habits, good oral hygiene, and good dental occlusion. With regard to the differences between the Ami and Atayal, most of the date show no statistical significance except in the dental occlusion. The Atayal's occlusion is better than that of the differences of genetics or other factors. There are no sex differences in all the date in the dental survey, but there are sex differences in both the misiodistal and buccolingual crown diameters of both the Ami and Atayal tribes (the tooth crown of the male subjects is invariably broader and larger than that of females). In the dental arch dimensions, most of the data show no sex diffreence, except in the breadth of the upper and lower dental arch of the Atayal. Anthropologically, there are no statistical differences,  in  mesiodistal and buccolingual crown diameters and most of the data of dental arch dimesions, but there is a difference in arch depth in Ami and Atayal adolescents. The Atayal have a deeper dental arch than do the Ami. As for dental morphologi, the Taiwan aborigines have a high frequency of shovel-shaped incisors and Carabelli's trait but a relatively low frequency of protostylid.  There are no definite differences between races in the occlusal pattern of maxillary first molars, but there are differences in the maxillary second molars. The usual pattern is 4-- for the upper first and second molars of the Taiwan aborigines as well as for thedibular occlusal pattern, the first molar tends to follow the primitive \"dryopithecus\" pattern of 5 cusps and Y configuration, but in the second molar there are varying degrees of departure from Y5 to the more advanced +4 pattern with +5 and Y4 as intermediates.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264878"}

Bone pore volume of pores ranging from 0.1 to 77 mum in diameter was unchanged in alveolar bone from patients with periodontal disease compared with control subjects, a finding that is inconsistent with the involvement of systemic factors in alveolar bone loss in this disease. Bone density was decreased in alveolar bone from patients with periodontal disease. Bone density of normal alveolar bone increased with age. A similar finding was obtained in rat diaphyseal bone, suggesting that this is a general phenomenon in aging bone. This could be significant inasmuch as high density bone would be expected to be more brittle. In contrast to these findings in normal alveolar bone, bone density decreased rather than increased in the 50- to 59-year-old age group in patients with periodontal disease. The cause of  decreased bone density remains to be established.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264881"}

The correlation between downgrowth of subgingival plaque and loss of attachment was evaluated on 27 teeth which had to be extracted because of advanced bone loss in 16 patients between ages 12 and 22. The diagnostic criteria were those used for periodontosis. The teeth were stained and examined under the stereomicroscope. There was a very high degree of congruence between the subgingival plaque front and the line of lost attachment on all the teeth, thus showing that plaque is strongly involved in the destruction of the attachment apparatus. On some of the vestibular and lingual surfaces where efficient supragingival plaque control had been maintained, there was no subgingival plaque and no loss of attachment, showing that subgingival plaque develops from supragingival plaque. The highest speed of apical growth of the subgingival plaque front in any one case was estimated to be about 5 mu per day, or about 1,8 mm per year. Such an unusually rapid advancement must be the combined effect of an extremely high invasiveness of some inhabitants of the plaque and some deficiency in the host's defense mechanism against the same organisms. The subgingival plaque was found to be very thin and only occasionally calcified to form calculus. Symptoms of inflammation, if any, were only seen at the gingival margin, giving the clinical impression of a noninflamatory, degenerative condition. This explains why the concept of diffuse atrophy has developed. The observations made in this material indicate that what has been diagnosed as periodontosis, in fact is a highly destructive juvenile periodontitis which should be so named. The high destructiveness depends on a host parasite imbalance rather than on a degenerative condition.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264960"}

All three surgical procedures reduce pocket depths. In order of effectiveness they are: pocket elimination surgery, modified Widman flap, and subgingival curettage. 2. Pocket elimination surgery reduces pockets more than subgingival curettage on the buccal, lingual and interproximal, and more than the modified Widman flap on the lingual. The modified Widman flap procedure reduces pockets more interproximally than subgingival curettage. 3. Subgingival curettage results in a gain of attachment interproximally, and on the lingual side, while the modified Widman flap resulted in a gain of attachment interproximally only. 4 Pocket elimination surgery resulted in a loss of attachment buccally. 5 Subgingival curettage results in a more favorable postoperative attachment level on all surfaces than did pocket elimination surgery.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264961"}

A total of 30 facial gingivectomies were carried out for reduction of suprabony pockets (mean +/- S.D. preoperative pocket depth 2.8 mm +/- 0.3 mm). Remodeling of the gingival margin was monitored by clinical measurements. The following techniques were utilized: A polyvinyl stent was constructed for each surgical quadrant. This stent covered the occlusal margins of the involved teeth and contained the fixed point of reference. Preoperatively, the following measurements were taken: the distance from the fixed point to (a) the height of the free gingival margin, and (b) the base of the clinical pocket. For control purposes similar measurements were taken at the facial surface of an adjacent tooth. A standard gingivectomy to the base of the clinical pocket was then performed and a periodontal dressing was applied for 1 week. Utilizing the stent (fixed point of reference), measurements were taken of the healing margin and control sites inn the same manner as preoperatively; 1,4,8 and 12 weeks after surgery. Our findings indicate that 12 weeks after gingivectomy, the newly formed free gingival margin was located coronally to the line of incision in all cases. The mean pocket depth at 12 weeks after surgery was 0.7 mm +/- 0.2 mm. However, the mean gain in coronal marginal height was 1.2 mm +/- 0.3 mm. Thus, a clinical coronal pocket closure of about 0.5 mm seemed to have taken place at the soft tissue-tooth interface. Measurements at the nonoperated control site showed no significant variations in crevicular depth during the experimental period. We therefore conclude that the excisional reduction of a crevice to 0 mm depth was altered by gingival remodeling during the healing phase. In our experience, this remodeling took place within 3 months after surgery and clinically appeared as a limited coronal pocket closure and gain of marginal height.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264962"}

No clinical trial was undertaken in this investigation, and no mandibular movements were registered on the Stuart articulator for transfer to the Hanau XP-51 articulator. A method of comparison and mathematical formulae were described whereby specific angles were calculated for both articulators. All tabulated angles were correlated by determining the least-squares slope of the observed angular variation as a function of the three independent variables in a computerized program. The standard deviation from these was calculated for each articulator, and the differences were found to be very small. It was concluded that the experimental Hanau XP-51 articulator could reproduce specific movements made by the Stuart articulator. Further, the adjustable posterior wall within the condylar housing was found to compensate for the lack of an adjustable intercondylar distance on this articulator.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/264967"}

CONPADRI-I and COMPADRI-II chemotherapy (a multiple drug approach) is discussed. Adriamycin in combination or alone has proved effective in treating osteogenic sarcoma. Ewing's tumor is showing increased survival rates from radiation therapy alone, as well as by use of systemic adjuvant chemotherapy combined with local radiation. Adjuvant triple chemotherapy with radiotherapy has resulted in pronounced improvement in survival. Chondrosarcomas are largely chemotherapy-resistant. Immunotherapy in bone tumors still is in the experimental stage and investigations with immunotherapy are preliminary.

In four children with previously untreated acute leukemia the stathmokinetic effect of a single IV dose of vincristine (in two children with AML), or of a single IV dose of vincristine combined with daily prednisone (in one child with AMMoL and one with ALL), were investigated. The kinetics of bone marrow blast cells from all patients, and of red cell precursors from the patient with ALL, were studied by conventional methods (determinations of mitotic index and pro-+metaphase/ana-+telophase ratios). In two of the four patients (one AML and one AMMoL) the progression of cells through S, the incorporation pattern of tritiated thymidine, and the nuclear projection area changes during S were analyzed by a combination of autoradiographic and cytophotometric techniques. The results suggest that the doses of vincristine used (0.05 and 0.075mg/kg body weight) did not influence the progression of cells from G0/G1 into S nor from S into G2, and had no effect on the incorporation pattern of tritiated thymidine or on the nuclear projection area changes during S.

A total of sixty-two patients with head and neck malignancy who had teeth extracted prior to irradiation therapy were studied. Only one in this group of sixty-two patients developed posttherapy necrosis, and this instance was in no way related to the pre-irradiation extractions. Our experience with patients who have undergone extractions prior to radiotherapy indicates that exodontia may not be, within itself, associated with increased serious postirradiation sequelae. The incidence of osteoradionecrosis in these patients is extremely low. Further, our data do not indicate a critical time period for healing of extraction sockets prior to initiation of radiotherapy. When the state of the underlying disease allows, a healing time of 10 to 14 days should be granted when teeth are extracted prior to irradiation. This recommended interval is only a guideline, since a shorter healing time does not entail a significantly greater risk and should therefore not be arbitrarily classified as inappropriate.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265036"}

Furthermore, there are clear signs of sharp increases in the dental caries problem in populations which previously benefited by a near absence or low prevalence of the disease. For highly developed countries dental caries and periodontal disease are responsible for an ever increasing economic burden which could easily become intolerable for even the richest of economies. In developing countries where dental caries prevalence is increasing the extreme lack of manpower resources is the first barrier, any response to which will encounter the second and associated economic constraint. It is essential for both situations that greater emphasis be given to prevention of oral diseases both by methods already proven, such as fluoridation of water supplies and other uses of fluorides, by oral hygiene programs, and by coordinated research to develop complementary or other methods.

Na, Cl, Al, Mn, Ca, and P were determined by neutron activation analysis, K, Mg, Zn, Cu, and Fe by the atomic absorption method, and F with the fluoride-specific electrode. Most elements were present in higher concentrations in the enamel than in the dentin: Mg, however, was higher in the dentin. Compared with the permanent teeth, the primary teeth contained more K and Mn in enamel and K and Mg in dentin, but less Na and Zn in enamel. Differences between the six localities were significant for F, Cl, K, Zn, Na, and Mn. Fe, Cu, and Mn contents of teeth were much lower in Finland than elsewhere; in the typical Finnish diet the contents of Fe and Cu are relatively low and iron deficiency anemia is usually common in Finland.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265089"}

Class I and Class II restorations on selected teeth of children aged 7-13 years were recorded in order to find which types of restorations were suitable for clinical evaluation of amalgam restorations with regard to frequency and anticipated observation period. Restorations suited for amalgam evaluation were found to be MO type restoration on all first molars and occlusal, palatal, and occlusal/palatal restorations on maxillary first molars and buccal pit restorations on mandibllar first molars. For the age group 7-11 years, the MO type restoration in the first molars will reflect the caries situation; the DO type restoration on maxillary first molars will serve this purpose for an age group approximately 2-4 years older. Thus selected recording of restorations must be considered age dependent in order to give a representative reflection of the caries experience. The most striking difference between the groups with high and low restoration frequency was a 2-year delay in the group with low frequency as compared with the group with high restoration frequency.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265090"}

Using a method involving elution of hemoglobin bands from cellulose acetate strips following electrophoresis of hemolysates, hemoglobin A2 (Ab A2) was quantitated in bloods from 300 healthy individuals and 904 patients. The percentage of Hb A2 was elevated in beta-thalassemia heterozygotes and some patients who had megaloblastic anemia. In the latter, the highest Hb A2 levels were observed in patients with the most severe anemia. Low Hb A2 percentages were found in iron-deficiency anemia, hereditary persistance of fetal hemoglobin, and Hb H disease. In iron-deficiency anemia, the lowest levels of Hb A2 were observed in association with the most severe anemia. Iron and folate deficiency each suppressed Hb A2 levels in beta-thalassemia heterozygotes; however, vitamin B12 deficiency did not alter the percentage of Hb A2 in thalassemia.

The combined simultaneous anterior and posterior maxillary ostectomy has proved to be a useful method of treating skeletal open-bite. It is indicated primarily in patients with lip incompetence, excessive exposure of maxillary anterior teeth, long lower-face height, contour-deficient chin, and Class II malocclusion. Primary contraindications are the Class III skeletal open-bite and lip competence. We have used the procedure as routine treatment for many open-bites over the past 5 years since we first described it. Clinically, the results have been most gratifying, with marked improvement in facial appearance and stability of the open-bite correction. A preliminary study of stability following this procedure indicated good stability with regard to the vertical repositioning of the maxillary segments. A recently completed study by us on thirty-two patients treated with this procedure and followed for an average of 1.5 years showed excellent stability. This is by no means the only method by which open-bite may be successfully treated, but it is one more method to add to our armamentarium. The surgical procedure must be carefully planned and executed to attain the best possible results. Furthermore, the orthodontic procedures, particularly those involving vertical forces, must be provided at the proper time so that the surgical results are not compromised. Nevertheless, with proper planning, attention to detail, and meticulous execution, the results are rewarding.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265137"}

Contrary to expectation, a remarkable similarity between cleft and non-cleft twins was found from three to 10 years of age. It was only from 10 to 17 years of age that the expected diminution in height and weight was observed. Average heights and weights at two-year intervals were compared with population norms for the age range in question for cleft and non-cleft twins. For both height and weight, the \"over 10\" decrease below the population norms was attributable to the DZ cleft twins. The MZ cleft twins remained very close to the norms while their non-cleft matched siblings exceeded the norm after 10 years of age. In addition, the decreased weight for cleft twins was seen to occur earlier for girls than for boys, suggesting a relationship with the onset of puberty. This was not seen for height.

A tentative analysis was made of the efficiency of allocating resources to fissure sealing, rather than to restorative care, in a public dental program. Data for the study were taken from a 2-year clinical trial in London. The analysis is necessarily tentative because the clinical trial employed the half-mouth design, which does not represent a true-life situation. Over the 2 years of the study, it was found that sealing the population of study teeth took from 24.9% to 33.8% more time than treating the lesions which developed in the control teeth would have.

Addition of CIA reproducibly reduced colony and/or cluster numbers by 35-70%. CIA was heat labile being inactivated at 37 degrees C. Daily additions of CIA reduced colony numbers even further; inhibition was dependent on [PMN] used to prepare CIA and on the potency of stimulation produced by colony stimulating cells (CSC). PMN from some patients with leukemia were inactive as inhibitors and did not condition media with CIA. All experiments were thereafter controlled by parallel assessment of supernatant of lysed PMN not demonstrating any CIA. CIA appears to be not only stored in PMN but released from viable, as well as degranulating PMN. Although not species-specific, CIA was specific in its nontoxic action on CSC; colony forming cells and cell-free colony stimulating activity were not affected.

With the purpose of establishing to what extent \"periodontosis\" responds to total plaque control, 21 such patients were observed over periods ranging from 8 to 34 years. Total plaque control in the present context means complete removal of all supragingival plaque by the patient and complete removal of all subgingival plaque by the dentist. The results were evaluated in terms of the number of lost teeth and the percentage of lost attachment during the observation period. It was observed that \"periodontosis\" cases responded to total plaque control in the same way as do ordinary cases, but with periodontosis, incomplete plaque control on any teeth led to extremely rapid bone loss and eventually to extraction. The reason for this is the unusually rapid apical migration of the subgingival plaque which is the most typical feature of the juvenile periodontitis. Some attachment and some teeth were lost in most of the patients, but a sufficient number of teeth with a sufficient amount of supporting tissue were maintained to provide a set of natural teeth that functioned well. This study shows that the reduced resistance to the invasion of subgingival plaque can be compensated for by a correspondingly strong emphasis on total plaque control. The term \"periodontosis\" is misleading, and should be replaced by the name \"juvenile periodontitis\" as suggested by Lehner et al. (1974).", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265308"}

A study was made of the effect of wearing partial dentures upon plaque accumulation in a group of 24 partial denture wearers, when oral hygiene procedures were withdrawn.

Plaque accumulation was measured at the end of four different denture-wearing regimens each 3 days in length. The wearing of a partial denture either day only or day and night, significantly increased plaque accumulation over not wearing a denture. There was no significant difference between plaque accumulation with day wear and day and night wear. The increase in plaque accumulation with day and night wear resulted from an equal and significant increase in both buccal and lingual plaque accumulation. Chlorhexidine gluconate in the form of a gel significantly reduced plaque accumulation during daytime wear. These results tend to confirm that plaque control is a major factor in determining the long-term effects of partial dentures upon the periodontal structures and emphasize the importance of oral hygiene in partial denture wearers.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265309"}

The mechanisms of inactivation of aerosolized bacteriophage phiX174 in atmospheres containing ozone, cyclohexene, or ozonized cyclohexene were studied by using 32P-labelled phage. The inactivation of the aerosolized phage in clear air or in air containing cyclohexene is due to damage of the protein coat since the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) extracted from the inactivated phage retains its biological activity. Inactivation of the phage in air containing ozonized cyclohexene is due both to protein and DNA damage. Sucrose gradient analysis shows that aerosolized inactivated phiX174 releases unbroken DNA. In contrast, the DNA from phage phiX174 inactivated by ozonized cyclohexene is broken. The inactivation of aerosolized phage phiX174-DNA was studied in the same atmospheres using 32P-labelled DNA. phiX174-DNA aerosolized in clear air or air containing cyclohexene at 75% r.h. is inactivated by a factor of 2 in 30 min. The inactivated DNA is broken. Ozone as well as ozonized cyclohexene inactivates KNA very fast causing breaks in the molecule.

A study is described of influenza A anti-neuraminidase antibodies in the sera of young people of three different groups. Each serum was individually absorbed with viruses containing the N2 neuraminidases of 1957, 1968 and 1972. Rabbit antisera prepared against the viruses were similarly absorbed. Results obtained with the animal sera suggested that these neuraminidases were antigenically distinct, but the human sera had a broader range of anti-neuraminidase activity and gave indication of asymmetric antigenic relationships. Earlier workers who surveyed anti-haemagglutinin antibodies reported that the virus of primary infection absorbed all antibodies, and the virus of secondary infection only those directed against itself. We too found that the virus of secondary infection absorbed only homologous anti-neuraminidase antibody. However, although the primary infecting virus did absorb some secondary antibody, this absorption was incomplete and it lessened with the lengthening of the time interval between the primary and secondary infecting viruses. A similar pattern was seen with anti-haemagglutinin antibodies. Absorption of anti-neuraminidase antibodies from human sera proved much more difficult than absorption of anti-haemagglutinin antibodies particularly after repeated influenza virus infections. The relative rarity of antigenic shift in the neuraminidase subunit also creates problems in the interpretation of results of serum neuraminidase antibody surveys.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265343"}

These serotypes, especially S. anatum and S. derby, had been isolated frequently from clinical cases, symptomless carries and in this study from abattoir workers, suggesting that the pig was a significant source for human salmonella infection. The majority of pigs slaughtered are imported and the high level of apparent infection was thought to be due to cross-infection during transport of the pigs under stress.

Based on 25 cases with unilateral clefts of lip, alveolus and palate with retromaxillism (CLAP) and 25 cases with pure retromaxillism (RM) the effect on the nose of advancing the maxilla by a Le Fort I osteotomy is analyzed. It can be shown that on average the base of the nose which is at the same time the base of the upper lip, follows the base of the maxilla in the ratio of 4 : 7 while the nasal tip is advanced in a ratio of 2 : 7. This means that to achieve a specified advancement of the nasal base, the maxilla has to be brought forward about twice this amount. A planned advancement of the tip of the nose can, on average, only be obtained by an advancement of the maxilla by three times this amount. The tangent to the columella is tilted considerably forewards and upwards. The movement is a little more marked in CLAP than in RM. The amount of maxillary advancement influences the ratios very little. It seems that they are slightly better after significant advancement. Leaving the nasal spine intact and tilting the maxilla forwards and upwards have a favourable influence on the advancement of the nasal tip. There is no satisfactory explanation of why the extremes in all groups for all measurements are placed so very far apart. As was found in the evaluation of lip movements (Freihofer 1976) this leads to the conclusion that in spite of careful planning the result in the individual case can differ considerably from that expected.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265348"}

A modification of the technique of photoelectric plethysmography has been developed to monitor changes in the microcirculation of the human periodontal ligament and adjacent alveolar bone, whereby detection is made of light reflected from or transmitted through a tissue during alterations in blood volume, flow or distribution. Light is conducted to and from the periodontal tissues via miniature fiberoptics placed within the root canals of endodontically treated teeth, or illuminated through the external surface of the gingiva towards the root. Circulatory activity was monitored both with the teeth at rest and under forces up to 480 gm. Horizontal and axial forces were found to produce a decrease in blood volume in the area of the periodontal tissue under compression. In an area under tension, an initial increase in blood volume was followed by a decrease as the magnitude of force rose above the critical 90 to 180 gm level. The pulse volume, however, was increased during both phases. Analysis of the biphasic and pulse volume changes suggests that autoregulation of blood vessel tone occurs in the periodontal tissues as a result of alteration in extravascular tissue pressure when the root is moved relative to the alveolus. It is proposed that this autoregulatory mechanism may play a role in alveolar bone metabolism by producing alteration in local tissue oxygen tension.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265385"}

New strains of ODU plaque-susceptible and resistant rats have been developed starting from litter mating at our laboratory, in 1972. Those strains were selected and mated for further generations. ODU plaque-susceptible and resistant rats are those that show the presence or absence of plaque formation in their gingiva of lower incisors after they are fed a commercially available powder diet. Experiments were started when rats weighing 75 to 85 gm were about 5 weeks old being fed with 20 gm of a powder diet a day. Almost every 4 days, plaque formation was observed in terms of 5 degrees from zero to 4 degrees and body weight. As a result, plaque formation in plaque-susceptible and resistant rats clearly showed their quality in their 3rd generation. Those qualities will be further emphasized as the generation advances. In the 3rd generation of plaque-susceptible rats, no difference was found in growth between those ingested with a powder diet and those with a solid diet of the same ingredients. But in the first 2 months, male plaque-resistant rats of the 3rd generation grew more quickly than susceptible rats.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265386"}

The condylar element control is an improvement over existing devices for comparing interocclusal records in that it not only indicates differences in position but it also provides quick remounting of the casts in a working articulator. Other features of the articulator are: (1) a condylar lock mechanism which is activated by only a half turn, (2) adjustable spring tension, (3) precise long centric and wide centric controls, (4) an incisal pain which can be removed and replaced on the articulator without changing its setting, (5) a Bennett movement carefully selected to avoid the complication of a pantograph type of face-bow, and (6) a new sponge wall type of mounting plate which supports both casts for simultaneous mounting.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265396"}

The practical significance of this investigation lies in the data base that it provides for further analysis of tracings produced in a similar manner.

The treatment procedure for posterior unilateral condylar displacement has been described. An acrylic resin repositioning prosthesis may be used to decrease trismus. Occlusal adjustment permits lateral freedom for mandibular movement to the opposite side which provides a dual, or a therapeutic, centric occlusion as well as the existing dysfunctional centric relation. This permits the patient's physiologic adaptive mechanism to choose between the existing dysfunctional centric relation, which resulted in unilateral condylar retrusion and pain, or a therapeutic centric occlusion which is aimed at anterior unilateral condylar repositioning. Over long period of time, muscle reprogramming produces maximum intercuspation of teeth in the planned therapeutic centric occlusion rather than in the original dysfunctional position. No explanation has been established for this phenomenon. It is important, however, to provide a technique that permits physiologic adaptability over a period of time. It should be emphasized that this is not TMJ \"remodeling\" but a functional change in the position of the jaw.

The second group 1973-1975 of 680 patients were investigated with Bryan's cytotoxic food test, 60 percent reported very good relief and 26 percent useful relief of symptoms. Successfully treated patients were able to curtail or abandon drug therapy and the frequency of surgery was decreased.

The nutritional status of children (and hence the community) was assessed in the five major races in Auckland by height, weight, and head circumference measurements. Under the age of two years Samoan children were significnatly taller and heavier than Europeans and Maori children. No significant racial differences occurred in children between ages two and 13 years. No racial variation in head circumference between races was noted at any age. More children of lower socio-economic class had weights about the 97th percentile especially in Samoan, Cook Island and Niuean children's groups, suggesting they are particularly vulnerable to obesity. Heal circumference of children of low socio-economic status was smaller than that of other children. Similarly non-breast fed children had smaller heads than breast fed children.

Techniques of subjective evaluation of disease status (mailed schedules describing disease and color photographs) were used in making an assessment of RAU, including both current disease and histories of prior disease. The data presented suggested a trend toward decreased RAU prevalence and severity among physicians, dentists, veterinarians, and nurses as compared with 12 years previously when they were professional school students. The prevalence rate, however, was still very high, indicating that 48.3 per cent of the men and 57.2 per cent of the women had RAU at the time.

The prediction and experimental confirmation of a previously unsuspected kinetic effect occurring in electrolyte solutions are presented herein. Kinetic polarization deficiency may be described as a reduction, with respect to the pure solvent, in the static permittivity of the solution; the decrement in epsilon0 is shown to be proportional to the product of the dielectric relaxation time of the solvent and the low frequency conductivity of the solution. The kinetic ion-solvent interaction affects the capacitive admittance in two closely related ways: as an ion migrates, the surrounding volume elements of the liquid tend to rotate according to the laws of hydrodynamics, and although dielectric relaxation tends to restore an equilibrium polarization appropriate to the local electric field, this adjustment is not instantaneous; rather it lags behind by the dielectric relaxation time. Conversely, the force that an external field exerts on an ion does not develop its full strength instantly because the ion is driven partly by the external field and partly by the polarization that develops in response to the applied field, the polarization field evolving with a time constant that is the relaxation time for the orientation of solvent dipoles.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265511"}

The synthesis of N5-methyl- and N5-ethyl-1,5-dihydroflavin mononucleotides is reported. These compounds show no bioluminescence activity with bacterial luciferase. This feature is interpreted in terms of steric hindrance between the N5-alkyl group and a hydrogen bonding group at the active site of the luciferase. The chemiluminescence observed on reaction of N5-alkyl-1,5-dihydroflavins with oxygen and aldehydes has been shown to occur via formation of a mixed peroxide of flavin and aldehyde and to be associated with a primary deuterium isotope effect when [1-2H]aldehyde is substituted for aldehyde. The time course for light emission has been compared for aldehyde and ketone substrates. The suggestion is entertained that the peroxide bond of 4a-hydroperoxyflavin is sufficiently polarized to allow this species to act as the oxidant per se at the active site of mixed function oxidases. The second-order rate constants for reaction of hydroperoxides with thioxane and I- are compared. 4a-Hydroperoxy-3,5-dimethyllumiflavin is shown to convert thioxane to its sulfoxide 1.8 X 10(5) times faster than t-butyl hydroperoxide.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265512"}

Kinetic analysis of the flux of sodium ions in a heterogeneous population of acetylcholine receptor-rich microsacs (vesicles) formed by membrane fragments of electroplax indicated that functional microsacs, which on average comprise only 15% of the preparation, can be filled with 190 mM sodium chloride while nonfunctional microsacs are filled by 190 mM cesium chloride. The functional microsacs have then been successfully separated from nonfunctional microsacs on the basis of their density differences with a continuous sucrose-190 mM cesium chloride density gradient. In the presence of acetylcholine analogs all the internal sodium ions in these microsacs rapidly exchange with external ions. The efflux of sodium ions follows a single exponential decay. The isolation of functional microsacs opens up at least two new avenues of investigation of the molecular mechanism of receptor-mediated processes. The first deals with the efficiency of the process, and the second with the characterization of membrane components important in this process. The conclusions reached so far are: (i) The efficiency of the receptor-mediated process that allows inorganic ions to equilibrate across the membranes of the microsacs can adequately account for electrophysiological results obtained with muscle and nerve cells. (ii) In the receptor-rich heterogeneous population of microsacs the concentration of receptor sites in functional and nonfunctional microsacs is about the same and is therefore not the only factor determining functionality. Significant differences between functional and nonfunctional microsacs have been found so far in the concentrations of acetylcholinesterase and Na+-K+ ATPase.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265515"}

Survival of wild-type cells in darkness and of mutants that are blocked at different steps in photosynthetic electron transport is nearly 100% when incubated in the presence of the drug under identical conditions.

Light-dependent oxygen uptake mediated by metronidazole is shown to require active photosystem l in vitro and in vivo.

Both of these anions derepress ATP sulfurylase in cells growing on sulfate, but not in cells growing on L-cysteine. However, the two anions appear to derepress by different mechanisms. Molybdate caused derepression only at concentrations that were in excess over sulfate and were sufficient to inhibit growth and protein accumulation, indicating that the derepression resulted from sulfur starvation. Selenate caused derepression at one-tenth the concentration of sulfate, a concentration of selenate that was subtoxic, while toxic levels of selenate produced far less derepression. The susceptibility of the tobacco cells to selenate toxicity was high under conditions of sulfur nutrition that derepress ATP sulfurylase, and low under conditions that repress ATP sulfurylase, in agreement with the idea that selenate acts via a functional sulfate assimilation pathway. Since it is known that selenate is incorporated into analogs of sulfur compounds, it is proposed that the tobacco cells synthesize the seleno-analog of the end product of the sulfate pathway responsible for repression, and the seleno-analog antagonizes the normal end product in the repression mechanism, the net result being derepression of ATP sulfurylase by selenate.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265528"}

The enzymatic effects of the drugs that affect cholinergic mechanisms seem to be generally in keeping with the pharmacological reciprocity between psychoses and extrapyramidal function, except for the anticholinergic ones which inhibited this cyclase although they can be hallucinogenic.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265541"}

Combined high-voltage electron-microscopic and electrophysiological studies strongly suggest that cilia play an active role in sensory transduction in the grasshopper proximal femoral chordotonal organ (FCO) a ciliated mechanoreceptor. The FCO of pro- and mesothoracic legs of Melanoplus bivittatus contains a group of several hundred chorodontal sensilla arranged in a near-parallel bundle and slung between the proximal femur and the knee joint. Both flexion and extension of the tibia stimulate the FCO, which appears to measure the femoro-tibial angle. The FCO's U-shaped response curve indicates that progressive flexion or extension from the resting joint angle of 90 degrees increases the response frequency of individual receptors and recruits additional units as well. Since the FCO is a purely tonic mechanoreceptor, it is possible to fix FCOs during maximum and minimum states of stimulation and electron-microscopically observed changes in the receptor's fine structure. The most conspicuous change is the production of a pronounced bend at the base of the sensory cilia in chordotonal sensilla of maximally stimulated femoral chordotonal organs.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265544"}

Microviscosity was thus determined from the behavior of probes in isolated membranes. Phagocytosis of oil emulsions or polystyrene beads by rabbit polymorphonuclear leukocytes induces a marked decrease in plasma membrane microviscosity that parallels the extent of phagocytosis. Liposomes made from extracts of membrane lipid show qualitatively the same changes, indicating that the alteration of microviscosity results at least in part from changes in lipid composition. The decrease in microviscosity is abolished when colchicine is present during phagocytosis. Addition of colchicine to membranes previously isolated from control or phagocytic cells has no effect on their microviscosity.

Translation of polyadenylated mRNA of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii in a cell-free wheat germ system resulted in the synthesis of numerous discrete polypeptides. Among them was a species with molecular weight 20,000 that was immunoprecipitated specifically by antibodies raised against the authentic small subunit (16,500 daltons) of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase [3-phospho-D-glycerate carboxy-lyase(dimerizing), EC 4.1.1.39]. Since the immunoprecipitated polypeptide has a larger molecular weight by approximately 3500 than the small subunit (S) it was identified as a putative biosynthetic precursor (pS). Post-translational conversion of pS by a specific endoprotease yielded two detectable products: one apparently identical in size to S and the other, a small peptide, presumably representing the remainder of pS. The endoprotease requires sulfhydryl groups for its activity and is present in a C. reinhardtii postribosomal supernatant as well as in a free polysome fraction. The latter could account for the observation that completion of nascent chains in free polysomes yielded S but not pS.

Murine erythroleukemia cells are induced to erythrodifferentiate by polar compounds such as dimethyl sulfoxide and hexamethylene bisacetamide as well as by fatty acids such as butyric acid and propionic acid. The effect of these inducers on the expression of two beta globin genes, betamaj and betamin, during the course of differentiation of the cells has been examined. After 4 days of culture with hexamethylene bisacetamide or dimethyl sulfoxide, the betamaj-containing hemoglobin (Hbmaj) predominates. By contrast, in the presence of butyric acid or propionic acid, after 4 days of culture, relatively equal amounts of Hbmaj and Hbmin are found. When cultured with dimethyl sulfoxide or hexamethylene bisacetamide, murine erythroleukemia cells synthesize more betamaj than betamin, while about equal amounts of the two globins are synthesized in the presence of butyric acid. When poly(A)-containing RNA from the cells exposed to different inducers is translated in a wheat germ cell-free system, the ratio of betamaj to betamin synthesized reflects that in whole cells. In a strain of murine erythroleukemia cells resistant to dimethyl sulfoxide (DR-10), the preferential stimulation of betamaj synthesis by hexamethylene bisacetamide of the betamin synthesis by butyric acid is more pronounced than with the dimethyl sulfoxide-sensitive cells (DS-19).

BFU-E were isolated from the peripheral blood of normal individuals by Ficoll-Hypaque density gradient centrifugation and cultured in vitro using the plasma culture technique.

In order to test the anchorage modulation hypothesis, the fluorescence photobleaching recovery method was used to measure the global inhibition of cell surface receptor mobility induced in 3T3 mouse fibroblasts by local binding of platelets labeled with concanavalin A (Con A). By measuring the diffusion of antibody-labeled cell surface receptors at various points on the cell surface, two states, immobile and mobile, were distinguished in the receptor population. Bound Con A-platelets, occupying between 4% and 30% of the cell surface, decreased the diffusion coefficient of the mobile population by a factor of 6. The magnitude of this effect was independent of distance from the sites of the bound Con A-platelets, demonstrating the propagated and nonlocal properties of the modulation effect. The immobile fraction of the population was not changed by Con A-platelet binding. Modulation of the diffusion constant of mobile receptors was partially reversed by treatment with microtubule-disrupting agents such as Colcemid and Vinca alkaloids. High doses of soluble Con A induced even higher levels of modulation than Con A-platelets, but reversal by microtubule-disrupting drugs was observed. These experiments provide additional support for the anchorage modulation hypothesis and provide a measure of the nature and degree of mobility at the molecular level. They also put important constraints on the hypothesized interactions among submembranous components (microtubules and microfilaments) of surface modulating assemblies.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265557"}

Human fibroblasts containing a balanced reciprocal translocation between the short arms of chromosome 1 and chromosome 6--designated t(1;6) (p3200;p2100)--were fused with an established line of Chinese hamster cells. Hybrid clones with segregating human chromosomes were studied for the presence of the translocation chromosomes 1T and 6T and their normal homologues 1 and 6. Six clones that had retained 1T, three clones with 6T, and three clones with 6 and 6T as controls, were analyzed by a microabsorption test for expression of the allelic antigens HLA-A2 and HLA-A3, both of which were present on the human parental cells. HLA-A2 segregated with the 1T translocation chromosome and HLA-A3 with the normal chromosome 6. Hybrid clones with 6T did not possess an HLA-A gene. In contrast, human PGM3 and malic enzyme-1 expression segregated with the 6T translocation chromosome. These results indicate the location of the major histocompatibility complex in region 6p2100 leads to 6pter of the short arm of chromosome 6. The genes for PGM2 and malic enzyme-1 map in region 6p2100 leads to 6qter. The HLA:PGM3 genetic map distance is 15 centimorgans in males, as established by family studies. This allows rather precise mapping of both loci because HLA is distal and PGM3 proximal to the translocation breakpoint in band 6p2100. The findings are consistent with earlier conclusions that HLA is proximal to 6p22.

Synthetic N-formylmethionyl peptides are chemotactic attractants for human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. The well-defined structure-activity relationship of these peptides in eliciting a chemotactic response suggests that the interaction of the peptides with a specific cellular binding site may initiate chemotaxis. By using tritiated N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMet-Leu-[3H]Phe), a potent chemotactic peptide with high specific radioactivity, we have directly identified binding sites on human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Binding of fMet-Leu-[3H]Phe to polymorphonuclear leukocytes is rapid (t1/2  less than 2 min) and reversible. The equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) for the interaction of fMet-Leu-[3H-A1Phe with the binding site is 12-14 nM at 37 degrees. The number of binding sites is approximately 2000 per cell. The specificity of the binding sites for a series of N-formylmethionyl peptides exactly reflects the specificity of the chemotactic response to the peptides in that they compete for the binding sites and initiate chemotaxis with the same order of potency (fMet-Leu-Phe greater than fMet-Met-Met greater than fMet-Phe greater than fMet-Leu greater than fMet),fPhe-Met is a competitive antagonist of the chemotactic activity of N-formylmethionyl peptides and has a calculated KD of 6x10-5 M. FPhe-Met also half-maximally inhibits binding of fMet-Leu[3H]Phe binding was the highest in polymorphonuclear leukocytes. No binding of fMet-Leu-[3H]Phe to human erythrocytes could be detected.

The gill withdrawal reflex of Aplysia has been used as a model for studying the neuronal mechanisms of habituation, a behavioral plasticity. We have assessed the contribution of neuromuscular facilitation, an elementary synaptic plasticity, during habituation of the reflex by recording gill muscle potentials, which we show are caused by excitatory junctional potentials. These potentials show systematic frequency-dependent changes in amplitude. The gill withdrawal evoked by central motor neuron firing during each habituation trial is determined by facilitation of the excitatory junctional potentials during the trial and the facilitated state of the initial excitatory junctional potential in a trial, determined by neuron activity prior to the trial. The neuromuscular junctions, therefore, act like a frequency-dependent amplifier of central motor activity. They are fully responsive to the dynamic changes of motor neuron firing that occurs during habituation and especially after dishabituation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265569"}

Extracellular K+ was measured simultaneously with a second ion-selective micropipette. The potential reference barrels of the ion electrodes also provided fast field and slow potentials. During repetitive stimulation of the parallel fiber--Purkinje cell cerebellar circuit, extracellular Ca2+ fell to about 80% of base line concentration. During the spreading depression of Leão, extracellular Ca2+ fell to about 10% of base line; decreases of this magnitude also occurred during terminal anoxia. In all cases extracellular K+ increased substantially. These results show that extracellular Ca2+ is modulated during neuronal activity in the central nervous system and that under some conditions the Ca2+ change can be extreme.

In alternating 12-hr periods of light and darkness, start of the dark period entrains the hamster's 24-hr clock. Blinding or constant darkness frees the clock of entrainment by allowing it to run faster or slower than 24 hr. Constant light frees the clock from entrainment and permits it to run slower than 24 hr--that is, lengthening its period. Heavy water given in drinking water linearly lengthens the period of the 24-hr clock of blinded hamsters or of hamsters kept in constant darkness in direct proportion to concentration of heavy water (1--50%). Heavy water (1-35%) has very different effects on length of the periods of the 24-hr clock when given under conditions of alternating 12-hr periods of light and darkness. Under these conditions, length of the period is controlled by three factors: (i) heavy water which slows the 24-hr clock; (ii) constant light which also slows the 24-hr clock; (iii) the counteracting effects of entrainment. It is thus possible to observe the effects of all three forces simultaneously in the same animal. The clock slowed by heavy water (1--20%) showed a strong tendency to return to a 24-hr entrainment whenever possible. On a 50% concentration of heavy water, the length of period of the clock became markedly lengthened but very constant and apparently independent of all external and internal disturbances.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265574"}

Gas-liquid chromatographic analyses of radioactive sterol composition after whole cell pulse experiments with [3H]squalene and with [3H]anosterol suggest that the fundamental enzymatic defect of the mutant is at the stage of lanosterol demethylation.

The polyribosomes were suspended in D2O at 15 degrees and the infrared spectrum was determined using a reference cell containing collagen-depleted polyribosomes in D2O, matched to equal RNA content. The amide I and amide II bands were observed. When the polyribosomes were heated in D2O at 44 degrees in the infrared cells, the N--D amide II absorbance at 1480 cm-1 increased markedly, indicating that H leads to D exchange had occurred. Collagen-depleted polyribosomes showed no such changes in absorbance at 1450-1480 cm-1 upon heating. Polyribosomes recovered from the infrared cells after treatment at 44 degrees and cooling still contained collagen, as indicated by their [3H]hydroxyproline content. These data indicate that nascent collagen bound to the polyribosomes can assume a hydrogen-bonded structure. Taken with prior data showing that the nascent collagen was also resistant to pepsin digestion, it is suggested that the collagen examined is in triple-helix conformation. Because the nascent polyribosome-bound collagen is nearly fully hydroxylated, it must be considered that triple-helix formation can occur between nascent chains while they are attached to the endoplasmic reticulum surface and that chain association and triple-helix formation in vivo may well occur before rather than after release.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265584"}

The vascular and cellular reactions were, however, more pronounced after application of plaque extract than after neutrophil extract.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265607"}

Assays of complement- and K-cell-mediated activity were used. Cytotoxicity to allogeneic myeloblasts was detected in both assays. When sera from 15 patients, taken at various times during immunotherapy, were systematically tested against a panel of 5 myeloblasts, the following patterns emerged: 1. No antibody was cytotoxic against all myeloblasts of the panel in either the K-cell or complement-dependent assay. However, all myeloblasts of the panel were lysed by a number of sera. 2. Cytotoxic antibody was detected as often against a panel of lymphocytes from healthy donors as against the panel of allogeneic myeloblasts. 3. Fresh and cryopreserved myeloblasts were equally susceptible to lysis in both assays. 4. Experiments failed to demonstrate any deterioration of cytotoxic antibody on storage. 5. The number of K-cell-revealed cytotoxic antisera increased with length of immunotherapy. This pattern was not apparent for antibodies revealed by complement. 6. No instance of cytotoxicity in either assay was seen when serum was tested against 12 autologous myeloblasts.

Purification and characterization of the cytoplasmic and mitochondrial isozymes derived from blast cells of acute myelocytic leukemia patients. A procedure for purifying human cytoplasmic and mitochondrial deoxycytidine kinase (NTP:deoxycytidine 5'-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.74) was developed. Both purified isozymes have a similar molecular weight, activation energy and catalyze the reaction by a sequential mechanism. These two isozymes differ with respect to their substrate specificities. With cytoplasmic deoxycytidine kinase, ATP, GTP and TTP have the highest reaction velocity. Pyrimidine nucleoside triphosphates have higher affinity but lower V than purine nucleoside triphosphates. Cytidine and arabinosylcytidine can serve as substrates. With mitochondrial isozyme only ATP gives the highest reaction velocity. ATP and dATP have the same Km but different V values. Besides deoxycytidine, also deoxythymidine but not cytidine or arabinosylcytidine can serve as substrates. There are also differences between these two isozymes with respect to their sensitivity to inhibition. For cytoplasmic enzyme, Br5dCyd and Iodo5dCyd are not inhibitory. Both dCTP and UTP are competitive inhibitors (Ki 0.25 and 0.5 micronM, respectively) with respect to ATP.

None of the patients had received any prior therapy. Nearly all of the patients (68 of the 71) were treated with 4- or 5-day courses of arabinosyl-cytosine alone or in combination with cyclophosphamide, vincristine (oncovin) and prednisone (COAP). The pretreatment variables studied were age at diagnosis, the percent labeling index of the bone marrow leukemic cells, diagnosis, the highest temperature prior to start of treatment, the marrow clot section cellularity and smear differential percent of blasts, percent absolute marrow leukemic cell infiltrate and absolute number of blasts X 10(3)/mm3 in the peripheral blood. Fifty-one patients had acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) and 20 patients had acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Using a statistical regression model approach, the only variables found to be of significant prognostic importance with respect to the probability of complete remission for AML patients were the pretreatment percent labeling index, the age of the patient and the highest temperature prior to start of treatment. Unlike AML, the initial percent labeling index did not appear to be of prognostic significance for ALL patients. AML patients with high labeling indices (larger than or equal to 9%) and young patients in general (especially those less than 40 years old) had the best remission rates. With respect to the length of complete remission and survival for all patients, the only important variables were the pretreatment percent labeling index and the age of the patient, respectively. Once in complete remission, an initially high labeling index was an unfavorable sign with respect to length of remission, regardless of the patient's diagnosis. The results of this study are supportive of studies in experimental systems demonstrating the importance of cytokinetic factors in the administration of chemotherapy and suggest that such factors may be of clinical importance in selecting approaches to therapy.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265746"}

Proved incompleteness of surgical removal was an important factor in recurrence (12 out of 17 cases or 70.6%). The recurrence rate was significantly (P2 less than 0.01) higher in cases with a mitotic index of seven or more per 50 fields (X 750) than in those with a lower mitotic index. In relation to the recurrence rate, no statistically significant differences were found between the age groups less than or equal to 15 and greater than 15 years, between the combination age and lesion size, or between four localization groups. The cyst wall and the septa consist of a superficial layer of cellular fibroblastic and histiocytic tissue in which multinuclear giant cells are present, covering a deeper situated zone of less cellular fibrous tissue.

We have studied the utilization of free fatty acid and glucose by human leukemic blast cells. Palmitate was both incorporated into complex cellular lipids, primarily phospholipids and triglycerides, and oxidized to CO2. The predominant phospholipid synthesized was phosphatidylcholine. Only a small proportion of the incoming fatty acid was modified structurally before incorporation into lipid esters. After incubation with [1-14 C]palmitate, 91% of the radioactivity recovered in cell lipids remained in fatty acids containing 16 carbon atoms. Studies with labeled glucose revealed little de novo synthesis of fatty acid, and the majority of the radioactivity from glucose was located in the water-soluble fraction after saponification of the esters. We conclude that the free fatty acids contained in the extracellular fluid provide much of the fatty acid for required cellular lipid synthesis in human leukemic blast cells. Since there is little elongation of incoming palmitate before incorporation into cellular lipids, it may be possible to alter the fatty acid composition of membrane phospholipids by changing the proportion of the various free fatty acids available to the leukemic cells.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265753"}

Neoplastic erythroid precusor cells were obtained from spleens of CD-1 mice after infection with Friend erythroleukemia virus while the nonneoplastic ellls were obtained from spleens of mice with phenylhydrazine-stimulated erythroid hyperplasia. Erythroid precursors at different stages of development were isolated from these erythroid cell populations by sedimentation at unit gravity. The surface proteins were labeled by lactoperoxidase-catalyzed iodination, solubilized in sodium dodecyl sulfate, and separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate gradient gel electrophoresis. Multiple labeled bands were found at all stages of neoplastic and nonneoplastic erythroid differentiation examined. The pattern of external membrane proteins labeled in nonneoplastic erythrocytes and in reticulocytes from peripheral blood were qualitatively similar and not altered by infection with Friend virus. The nucleated precursor cells from noninfected mice exhibited distinct differences from erythrocytes, and with increaseing differentiation an evolutionary pattern of several minor proteins was seen. Clear-cut differences in lactoperoxidast-reactive proteins were also observed between neoplastic and nonneoplastic precursors. The most marked differences were observed between the most immature cells. The youngest neoplastic cells from CD-1 mice possessed a protein with a molecular weight of 8000 not seen in normal erythroid cells. Additionally, there was an absence of a normally occurring protein with a molecular weight of 13,000 and increased amounts of a protein with a molecular weight of 140,000. With increasing maturation of the neoplastic cells, labeling of the protein with a molecular weight of 8,000 decreased while the protein with a molecular weight of 13,000 became apparent, so that a labeling pattern similar to that of nonneoplastic cells was obtained.

These are L. cuprina (Wiedemann), L. porphyrina (Walker) and L. sinensis Aubertin. The female of L. sinensis has never been reported. Therefore, the female genitalia of L. sinensis are illustrated in this paper and compared with those of L. papuensis. The male genitalia of L. sinensis and L. papuensis are also illustrated in this paper.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265769"}

For the purpose of investigating many of the cells in the bone resorption area incident to experimental tooth movement and characterizing the role of these cells for the periodontal tissue resorption at the ultrastructural level, orthodontic force was applied to 24 male rats. Orthodontic elastics were inserted into the interproximal space of the upper first and second molars. The mesial side of the interradicular septum of the second molar was observed. The electron micrsocopic findings were as follows: 1. Cell cohorts were found in the undermining bone resorption area. They are mainly composed of fibroblasts, endothelial cells, undifferentiated cells, macrophages and several kinds of osteoclasts. 2. Four different kinds of osteoclasts could be recognized from the morphological features: a) small osteoclasts situated apart from the bone surface, b) large osteoclasts rich in rough ER, c) classic large osteoclasts and d) degenerating osteoclasts. 3. Two different types of undifferentiated cells were observed in these area. One was a spindle-shaped bright cell rich in rough ER and the other was a round-shaped dark cell with numerous mitochondria and free ribosomes. 4. Macrophages showing phagocytosis were also found in the bone resorption area.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265770"}

In order to study the normal and aged anatomical structure of the duct system of human pancreas, retrograde pancreatography was performed. Pancreas from 33 cadavers of non-pancreatic disease, aged from 0 to 81 years, was examined. Silicone rubber was injected through the canal of Wirsung, radiographs were taken, and microstereoscopic observation was done after clearing in methyl salicylate. The main duct tapered gradually toward the tail, branching off about 56 second term ducts at a regular interval. The eighth term branch became the centroacinar ductules in the peripheral region, and the fourth and fifth term branch did it in the proximal region. In aged cases, prominently over 60 years, the main duct became large in caliber and showed irregular dilatation and narrowing like beads. The second term ducts were visualized as irregular patterns. The figure of distortions like a corkscrew was also seen in smaller ductules of the aged cases over 50 years. The histological findings of these sites were not the pancreatitic lesions but only the increase of fibrous tissues and decrease of a cellular component in the ductal wall itself.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265771"}

Three types of arteries, subepicardial, branching, and straight type arteries, were confirmed. The microvascular pattern of left ventricular free wall, the posterior wall of the left ventricle, interventricular septum, right ventricular free wall, papillary muscles, trabeculae carneae, infant heart, and aged heart were also examined. The present study revealed that the inner one-third zone was supplied by the terminal branches of both branching and straight type arteries. In infant heart, the inner zone was wider than that of the adult. In the aged cases, reduction in filling with patchy deficit often appeared in this inner zone. The finding of the aged change was probably caused by the characteristic microvascular pattern, and this suggested that the same anatomical mechanism might commit myocardial infarction.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265772"}

The protective effect of propranolol on ischemic myocardium was studied experimentally and clinically by electron microscope. In an animal experiment, ischemic changes were produced in the posterior papillary muscle of the rabbit following 3, 15, 30 minutes of occlusion of the circumflex coronary artery. Propranolol (0.25 mg/kg) was injected into the left atrial cavity before occlusion of the artery. The posterior papillary muscle was excised and examined by electron microscope. In clinical experience, propranolol (20 microng/kg) was given intravenously to 6 patients who underwent open heart surgery. Transmural left ventricular myocardial biopsy was performed after the anoxic cardic arrest and the material, particularly the subendocardium, was examined by electron microscope. It was shown that propranolol was effective, both in the experiment and in the clinical experience, in preserving ischemic myocardium. The possible mechanisms through which propranolol might act were considered to be (1) indirect effect of altered oxygen supply vs. demand, effect by reducing heart rate and reducing cardiac output due to the drug's function as a beta blocker, (2) direct cellular effect, i.e., reducing myocardial substrate metabolism along with stabilization of cellular structure, and (3) increase collateral circulation to the subendocardium.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265777"}

The dental needs of a heterogeneous South African community are not being fully met because the majority of the already deficient dentist population is in private practice, mostly in urban areas, where they are rendering services to a small minority of the population who can afford comprehensive dental care. Contrary to public health services in general, public dental services are inadequate in extent and provide a limited range of treatment to some eighty-five per cent of the population. Millions of under-privileged people, particularly in rural areas, are not within range of any professional dental care whatsoever. Organized community preventive programmes and dental health education on a national basis are non-existent. Water fluoridation has not yet become a reality. Realizing the shortcomings in community dental services the Government recently adopted a national dental health policy which is aimed at limiting and preventing dental diseases and also at expanding the public dental service to bring it within reach of all sections of the community. In order to meet the dental needs of the community and also to give momentum to the national dental health policy, the following steps are being taken as far as dental education is concerned: (i) The Department of Health is planning to assist universities to establish departments of community dentistry with the object of promoting extended education in community dentistry at under-graduate and post-graduate level. (ii) Consideration is being given to a scheme whereby dental students will have to do one year compulsory intership. (iii) Additional dental schools are being established to enable more non-White dentists to qualify. (iv) With the extended education in community dentistry it is hoped to draw more dentists into community dental services.

Multifactorial studies are thus of great importance, even though it is not practicable to measure all the parameters included with the sam accuracy; in such studies retrospective computation of the relative importance of individual parameters is of greater value than arbitarily assigned weights. So far as early prediction of malignant transformation in oral premalignant lesions is concerned, great interest is now being shown in the reactivity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in epithelial cells.

Friend erythroleukemic cells (FLC) can be induced to differentiate in vitro by addition of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). We have studied the kinetics of induction by measuring cell volume, volume coefficient of variation and cell doubling time. Two distinct volume changes (early and late) are observed after the addition of the inducing agent. The early change occurs after ten hours and consist of a 10-20% decrease in volume compared to an untreated control population. This shift persists for two days and its magnitude is proportional to both the concentration of DMSO and the number of differentiated cells seen on day 5. FLC lines which induce weakly or not all with DMSO exhibit a reduced or absent early volume shift. Inclusion of a local anaesthetic in the culture prevents the appearance of differentiated cells and also counteracts the early volume shift. The exact time of the early volume change is a function of cell growth rate and appears to be cell cycle related. Synchronized cell populations exposed to DMSO during G2 and S phase undergo one round of mitosis before expression of the volume change whereas cells in G2-M express the change only after a second mitosis. A later, more gradual decrease in volume is observed in those cultures which begin to produce hemoglobin. It occurs after approximately five doubling times and coincides with the first appearance of hemoglobin-containing cells. Volume distribution parameters indicate that only a proportion of the population becomes smaller in size.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/265944"}

Terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase activity was present at 4.08+/-0.74 U/108 cells in 23 morphologicall normal bone marrow samples from childhood controls. Terminal transferase was present at greater than 23 U/108 nucleated cells and at greater than31 U/108 blasts in the bone marrow of all children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia studied at initial diagnosis and at disease relapse. Terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase was detectable at low levels, less than 7.5 U/108 cells, in all remission marrow smaples. Bone marrow terminal transferase activity was markedly elevated in all untreated acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients, whereas low levels which were difficult to interpret were present in the peripheral blood samples of two patients at diagnosis and six patients at relapse who had low absolute lymphoblast counts. Because of greater variation in the lymphoblast content of peripheral blood, bone marrow assays are more reliable in detecting disease activity. Marrow terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase values obtained during the active phase of acute lymphoblastic leukemia were significantly greater than those found in other types of leukemia, bone marrow malignancies, and hematologic disorders. Terminal transferase determinations in blast cells of two patients with leukemic conversion of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and in tumor cells from one patient with Burkitt's lymphoma were within the control range.

In an experimental model, slabs of sound and presoftened bovine enamel were worn in the human mouth for seven days except for periodic removal for in vitro exposure to experimental variables. Supplementation with 3% sucrose for 10 minutes, four times daily for seven days yielded predicted levels of experimental caries. Parallel exposure to 3% sucrose containing 100 ppm fluoride sharply reduced or negated the resultant caries in originally sound enamel, and reversed the simulated pre-experimental caries in most samples of presoftened enamel. Serial layers of test enamel surfaces showed high levels of fluoride accumulated in the originally sound enamel, and even higher levels in the presoftened enamel that had been suppemented with sucrose-fluoride solution. Quantitation of the plaqye microbial flora showed that the fluoride ion exerted no detectable influence. Consistent with the findings in previous studies, some correlation appeared to exist between the degree of experimental caries and that proportion of total plaque that was comprised of S salivarius.

Since BMP activity was previously attributed to noncollagenous proteins (NCP) of bone and dentin, the nature of NCP of the rat dentin was examined. After treatment of the matrix with purified bacterial collagenase, three NCP were solubilized concomitantly with digestion of the dentin collagen to smaller peptides. The three proteins were separated by anion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. Two of the NCP were rich in asparate, glutamate, glycine, serine, and alanine, and thus displayed compositions similar to acidic proteins of other connective tissues. The third NCP was shown by amino acid composition to be the aspartate, serine-rich phosphoprotein, which occurs mostly in a soluble form in rat dentin.

Neither did stripping of the enamel organ from the surface of the enamel have a demonstrable effect in those areas. However, metabolic inhibition with 2,4-dinitrophenol, heat killing or stripping of the enamel organ resulted in increased 45Ca uptake in newly formed enamel adjacent to the secreting ameloblasts.

Since these compounds have distinct crystalline forms, they may be discerned on the surface of a setting sample. Visual identification of these phases on polished and etched samples is often difficult and, hence, surface morphology studies have an advantage in following the stages of the setting reaction. The purpose of this investigation was to use high-resolution light microscopy to follow the course of the setting reaction. Amalgam specimens were triturated and condensed against glass plates under pressure. The sample surfaces were then photographed under a high-resolution metallographic microscope using oblique illumination. The roughness of four samples for each alloy type was determined with a surface profile analyzer at times between ten minutes and 23 hours after trituration. An electron microprobe was used to identify the gamma1 and gamma2 phases. The gamma1 phase had a polyhedramorphology, and the gamma2 crystals formed intermeshed smooth areas. During the setting reaction, the average times for the roughness to reach 95% of the final value were 189, 227, 96, 65, and 116 minutes after trituration for the various amalgam types studied.

The degree of wetting of amalgam alloy by mercury during trituration is an important variable in determining reaction rates and the degree of amalgamation. The purpose of this study was to measure the contact angle made by mercury on various phases present in amalgam alloy in air and on commercial alloys. During amalgamation, mercury is in contact with the oxides present on the amalgam alloy as well as the metallic amalgam phase. To measure the degree of wetting of the metallic phases, silver, tin, and copper were melted in such proportions as to give specimens of silver, tin, the alpha, beta, and gamma silver-tin phases, the eutectic in the silver-copper system. These were cast in the form of cylinders, sectioned, and the surfaces prepared by sandblasting. Oxide specimens of AgO, Ag2O, SnO, and SnO2 were prepared by compaction in a mold. Four commercial amalgam alloys also were tested. Mercury drops were then placed on the surfaces and the contact angles measured at different time intervals. The initial contact angles of mercury on the alpha, beta, gamma, and eutectic phases were found to be 90degrees, 112 degrees, 145 degrees, and 138 degrees, respectively. Mercury reacted with silver and tin, resulting in a change of contact angle with time. Contact angles measured on the commerical alloys were also high, on the order of 145 degrees. The gamma phase had contact angles closest to those of commercial alloys. Surface oxide phases are most likely responsible for this poor wettablility by mercury.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266003"}

Aspiration occurred in a single patient under the Jorgensen technique and could be related to the presence of a narcotic in the mixture. The incidence of tracheal soiling was lower than that with other intravenous techniques and could be attributed to the use of the semisupine position or the baseline concept of narcotic dosage in the Jorgensen technique. In the nitrous oxide-oxygen sedation technique, aspiration was not noted.

Laboratory experiments were contrived to define the magnitude of reading errors and the play in the screw threads. It was found that, only in instances where a graduation related closely to the datum mark, did errors of interpretation arise. These were found to exceed the height set for test purposes by 0-1 mm consistently. An error of this order is of no practical significance clinically and is no impediment to such an application of the device. Mean play in the new pattern jacks was 0-01 mm compared to 0-05 mm in the Timmer versions. In a clinical experiment the performance of the screw was compared to that of Timmer.

The ability to perform high frequency tooth tapping movements was studied in young dentulous, elderly dentulous and elderly edentulous subjects of both sexes as a possible test of the overall efficiency of the masticatory motor apparatus and related structures. Tapping frequency was measured during a test period of 90s by counting the number of taps per 5 s intervals. It was found that observed values of tapping frequency could be fitted to an exponential equation with a high degree of fit for 90% of the young subjects and for 60% of the elderly subjects. The values of the remaining elderly subjects were best fitted to straight lines. The elderly subjects could thus be regarded as belonging to two different populations which were differently affected by advanced age and loss of teeth regarding their tooth tapping ability. Young dentulous subjects had the highest starting frequency (6-1 Hz) followed by elderly dentulous (5-5 Hz) and elderly edentulous subjects (4-9 Hz). The lower limits were 4-6 Hz for young dentulous subjects, 4-1 Hz for elderly dentulous and 3-7 Hz for elderly edentulous subjects.

This was compared with the intensity and distribution of radiation from seven Nuva-lites and one Quartzlite. It was found that some of the Nuva-lites did not produce an average intensity of uv radiation sufficient to completely polymerize Nuva-seal within the manufacturer's recommended exposure times.

This report has considered the possibility that the described patient had a maxillary and possibly a mandibular fibrous dysplasia concomitant with a parathyroid abnormality. It has attempted to arouse the diagnostician's suspicion of possible interrelations of fibrous dysplasia and endocrine abnormalities, and to strengthen the hypothesis of others that association of fibrous dysplasia and hyperparathyroidism is not coincidental. Clinical, radiographic, and laboratory examinations more than a year postoperatively further substantiate our hypothesis that the patient had a facial fibrous dysplasia concomitant with primary hyperparathyroidism. The maxilla and mandible continued to enlarge clinically. Systemic manifestations of hyperparathyroidism had resolved. Calcium phosphorus, and parathyroid hormone levels returned to normal limits. Radiographically, there had been remodeling and recalcification of all involved bones except the maxilla and mandible which continued to expand. A possible explanation is that the maxillofacial lesions represent the polyostotic fibrous dysplasia component of the Albright syndrome. The endocrine abnormality could be manifested by the hyperparathyroidism. The third component of Albright syndrome, café au lait lesions, has not been identified. The potential interrelation of fibrous dysplasia with endocrine abnormalities is obviously important from a diagnostic and therapeutic standpoint.

All successfully submerged defects showed histologic evidence of new bone formation. New bone formation was not apparent in any of the control defects or nonsubmerged defects. 6. Either no epithelium or only a narrow band of epithelium was associated with the successfully submerged roots. A connective tissue inflammatory infiltrate was not present within the submerged defects. 7. The defects of all control teeth and nonsubmerged experimental roots contained epithelial downgrowth accompanied by a chronic inflammatory response in the connective tissue. 8. Pulpal tissues associated with submerged roots appeared vital without significant degenerative or inflammatory changes. Pulpal tissue was continuous with overlying connective tissue.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266072"}

Seven blocks containing one tooth each were obtained from two patients undergoing treatment for periodontitis. Sixteen weeks prior to block removal, these sites were treated by periodontal flap surgery. In six teeth a citric acid solution (pH = 1) was applied for 2 minutes to the planed root surfaces. The seventh tooth received identical periodontal therapy except that saline was applied to the planed root for 2 minutes. At the end of the experimental period, the blocks were removed and prepared for histologic study. In five out of six citric acid treated specimens, no evidence was observed suggesting that citric acid applications either initiated or accelerated cementogenesis or functional connective tissue attachment at root surfaces previously exposed to periodontal pockets. In one specimen, repair cementum was seen crestally to the alveolar margin. This cementum was deposited on the surface of acellular cementum. Unfortunately, however, the specimen does not allow us to date the deposition of the repair cementum. It thus remains questionable whether this cemental deposition is indeed a repair response to the specific treatment performed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266074"}

The possibility of stress and heredity as positive factors was considered, but with so few reported cases conclusions would be purely speculative. The absence of dermatologic pathology does not aid in establishing a relationship with psoriasis, however there is a microscopic similarity. An almost total lack of clinical symptoms may contribute to this sparse documentation, therefore dental practitioners should be articularly observant when examining oral soft tissues.

Male and female first-year dental students generally possess the same attitudes and the same perceptions about themselves, dentists they observe, and about their ideals for dentists and patients. The null-hypothesis, that is, assuming no difference between the two groups on the basis of these data, is accepted. In general, one must assume that those women who choose dentistry as a career are not significantly different from their men counterparts, although indirect evidence shows a possible exception of a more compassionate identification with the patient by female students. The findings suggest that it would not be appropriate or accurate to either admit or exclude male or female students based on what may well be \"sexist\" assumptions regarding women's perceptions of themselves as dentists or their perception of their relationships to patients. The findings should be generalized very cautiously beyond the UCLA School of Dentistry. However, at the time this study was conducted, this dental school had both the largest number of female students and the highest percentage of female students in the United States. The study is limited to perceptual differences of freshmen and does not attempt to deal with issues such as productivity or longevity of professional involvement. These issues may have some bearing on the formation of attitudes toward women entering the profession, but additional longitudinal studies following the careers of the current cohort of female dental students will be necessary to allay criticisms of women in dentistry.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266082"}

Less than a third of the plans went beyond the then mandated benefits of the Act, and those that did, only provided the benefits on a fee-for-service basis. The more established plans, with enrollments exceeding 15,000 members, offered a full spectrum of services, and have acceptable levels of utilization. There appears to be a relation between size and services offered and overall utilization of the dental services. The general direction HMOs are taking with regard to the scope of services provided is hard to predict because more than two thirds of the HMOs studied were \"transitional\" HMOs. The more mature plans appeared to be leaning toward fully comprehensive services; however, only the \"basic\" dental services then mandated by the Act were covered by prepayment. It is difficult to predict how the nearly 200 HMOs now being planned and developed will integrate dental care into their programs, especially when dental care services are no longer required as a \"basic health service\". Based upon the cautious approaches used by the HMOs now in operation, it appears safe to assume that comprehensive dental care programs will not be offered by HMOs until they are forced to do so by competing health insurance carriers or a dental program provides them with a competitive edge.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266084"}

Chromosomes obtained from tumors in male Long-Evans rats with transplantable Shay chloroleukemia were counted and analyzed with Giemsa staining and quinacrine fluorescence. Several consistent abnormalities were noted in the 43 cells in metaphase. An interstitial deletion of the distal portion of chromosome No 2 was noted in all cells. Trisomy for No 2 was found in 27 of 43 metaphases; the third No 2 had a terminal deletion, resulting in a chromosome shorter than the other deleted No 2. All cells were missing a No 11 chromosome. Most cells contained a large acrocentric chromosome that appeared to be a No 10 with a terminal addition (10q+). Several markers were also consistently noted. These chromosome abnormalities were compared to previous cytogenic analyses on the transplantable Shay chloroleukemia, in which new fluorescent banding techniques were not utilized. Since all the studies ultimately derived from the original Shay chloroleukemia, karyotypic differences and changes could be viewed over an extended period of time. This study corroborated previous reports on the specificity of involvement of chromosome No 2 in chemically induced tumors and supported the idea that chromosome No 2 may be important in oncogenesis in the rat and in the host response to different etiologic agents.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266085"}

Prevalence among married women in Albany, New York, health region, 1974. A household survey conducted in the Albany Health Region in New York State in 1974 revealed that the use of contraception by married women was very similar to that found in a national survey in 1973.  In both surveys the majority of married women were currently using a contraceptive method, and most were using the most effective methods.  Results of the Albany Health Region survey show that women residing in lower socioeconomic areas, women with less education, and Catholic women were less likely to be using any method.  Despite these differences, the majority of women in all these groups were practicing contraception.  Private physicians were found to be the most important source of contraceptive methods.  Overall, contraceptive protection could be increased by providing services to those women not currently using contraception who are unable to give good reasons for not being protected, and by shifting women using less effective methods toward  more effective methods of contraception.  The survey was conducted to obtain information on correlates of planned and unplanned fertility, family planning practices, and the sexual experience and contraceptive practice of unmarried women.  This report describes the prevalence of use and the source of contraception for married women in the Albany Health Region Survey.  The Albany Health Region Family Planning Survey was a household probability sample of all women 15-44 years of age living in the 18-county Albany Health Region area.  Interviews were completed for 90% of the sampling of 2291 women.  If nonusers are excluded, of all women using contraceptives, 1/3 were using oral contraceptives, 1/4 were contraceptively sterilized or their partners were, 1/8 were condom users, and 1/10 were using IUDS;  these 4 methods account for 81% of all users compared with about 83% in 1973 U.S. estimates.  Reflecting the greater proportion of Catholics, the rhythm method is used to a greater extent in the Albany Health Region, 9.1 vs.  4.1% of all users. Of the married women who are using contraceptives, 32% are not using the most effective methods - oral contraceptives, IUDs, and sterilization.  Lack of access does not appear to be the reason for nonuse, but lack of motivation is apparently important because indifference and nonspecific reasons account for a large number of nonusers.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266124"}

In contrast to normal children, the mean peak blood uric level in the patients increased significantly after the administration of glucagon (P less than 0.001).

Uric acid excretion increased after glucagon administration in both patients and control subjects, but the differences in uric acid excretion between the two groups were not significant. The data in our patients after fructose and glucagon administration suggest that hyperuricemia in GSD results from enhanced nucleotide catabolism. The concentrations of hepatic Pi and ATP may be low in patients with GSD; hepatic Pi and ATP content would therefore be further diminished by the administration of fructose and glucagon.

Recently an anhydride intermediate has been detected in the hydrolysis of an ester substrate by this enzyme. Other evidence also suggests that esters and peptides may not be cleaved by the same type of mechanism. A possible explanation is that the substrate carbonyl and a water molecule are always aligned between glutamate-270 and the zinc atom of the enzyme, but not always in the same sequence. With peptides the carbonyl is coordinated to zinc, and the water is delivered by glutamate acting as a general base. Esters are weaker ligands, and in some cases the ester carbonyl may not displace water from zinc. This would lead to a nucleophilic mechanism, with glutamate-270 forming an anhydride while zinc-aquo serves as a Brönsted acid. This picture is consistent with other evidence on ester cleavage, and resolves the otherwise baffling discrepant data on peptide as compared to ester substrates.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266172"}
{"pmid": "266173", "title": "Molecular description of dioxygen bonding in hemoglobin.", "content": "Molecular description of dioxygen bonding in hemoglobin. From ab initio quality calculations on model systems, we conclude that in unliganded Fe-porphyrin the FE lies in the plane for both the high-spin (q) and intermediate-spin (t) states. Thus, the high-spin d6 Fe is not too big to fit into the porphyrin plane (as often suggested). We find the q state lower for a porphyrin hole radius greater than 1.94 A and the t state lower for smaller sizes. For the five-coordinate complex including an axial nitrogenous ligand [a model for myoglobin (Mb) and hemoglobin  (Hb)], we find the ground state to be q with the Fe 0.3 A out of the plane (recent x-ray data on deoxy Mb suggests about 0.4 A). The origin of this out-of-plane displacement is the nonbonded repulsions between the axial ligand and porphyrin nitrogen orbitals. Pushing the Fe of the five-coordinate complex into the plane does not lead to a stable low-spin state (as usually suggested), the q and t states being the low-lying states. Bonding the O2 to form the six-coordinate complex stabilizes the t form of the Mb model, leading to a singlet state of MbO2 with Fe in the plane. (It has often been suggested that the Fe of MbO2 and HbO2 is low-spin Fe2+; however, we find this not to be the case.) The bonding in the MbO2 model confirms the ozone model of the bonding, leading to a structure consistent with the Pauling model (our calculated FeOO bond angle is 119 degrees). The total charge transfer to the O2 is 0.10 electron, in disagreement with the Weiss model. Molecular orbital calculations (Hartree-Fock) incorrectly lead to septet ground state (S = 3) for the MbO2 model. The implications for the cooperative O2 binding in hemoglobin and protein modifications of the energetics of the active site are considered. Use of our calculated force constants for displacement of Fe perpendicular to the heme plane suggests that the movement of the Fe upon a change in the quaternary structure from the T to the R form is only about 0.04 A toward the heme plane.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266173"}

The dissociation of the reconstituted bound enzyme releases subunits that again can be reassembled into a soluble octameric pure protein even when the crude liver preparation is used as the donor of the subunits. Thus, a pure enzyme can be isolated in a reassociation-dissociation cycle.

The unbound receptor is sensitive to inactivation whereas the steroid-bound receptor is unaffected.

Both the dephosphorylating and receptor inactivating activities coelute during DEAE-cellulose purification of the enzyme. There is no detectable proteolytic activity in the purified alkaline phosphatase preparation. In a mixed system containing both glucocorticoid and estrogen receptors, the glucocorticoid receptor is selectively inactivated. Although these observations do not prove that the receptor molecule itself is the substrate, they are consistent with the proposal that the glucocorticoid receptor can be inactivated by dephosphorylation and that only the phosphorylated form of the molecule is capable of binding steroid.

Ehrlich cells treated with dinitrophenol and iodoacetate rapidly recover their 30-sec uptake of 2-(methyl-amino)-isobutyrate on treatment with 0.1 mM phenazine methosulfate + 20 mM sodium ascorbate before they begin to recover from the severely depressed ATP levels and alkali-ion gradients. Addition of 10 mM pyruvate also restores uptake of methylaminoisobutyrate before the alkali-ion gradients rise. This restoration is prevented by rotenone, but rotenone does not handicap restoration by phenazine methosulfate/ascorbate. Na+-independent uptake of 2-aminonorbornane-2-carboxylate by Ehrlich cells is affected the same way. Quinacrine almost completely suppresses uptake of methylaminoisobutyrate within the 30-sec uptake test, even when ATP levels are sustained by pyruvate and alkali-ion gradients are not depressed. Ouabain prevents restoration of both Na+-dependent and Na+-independent amino-acid transport by phenazine methosulfate/ascorbate or pyruvate. We interpret these results to indicate that amino-acid transport can be energized not only by known means, but also by reducing equivalents, which presumably reach the plasma membrane in the form of NADH from the mitochondria when the source of energy is pyruvate.

It contains as part of its structure a protein component that is biologically, immunologically, and electrophoretically indistinguishable from the biologically active factor purified from mouse submandibular glands. However, unlike pure gland NGF, L cell NGF is highly stable in solution, and this finding indicates that L cell NGF is a form of the factor different from that previously described.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266190"}

The Int protein specified by bacteriophage lambda is required for the recombination event that integrates the viral DNA into the host genome at its specific attachment site. Using a DNA-binding assay, we have partially purified the Int protein and studied some of the features of its binding specificity and regulation. The DNA-binding activity is attributed to Int protein because the activity is eliminated by a nonsense mutation or a deletion in the int gene, and is rendered thermolabile by temperature-sensitive mutations in the int gene. The DNA-binding activity is specific for DNA carrying an appropriate attachment site, suggesting that Int protein directs the sequence-specific recognition essential for integrative recombination. The specific DNA-binding activity is also missing after infection by phage carrying mutations in the cII and cIII regulatory genes of lambda. This finding corroborates the conclusion from other types of experiments that regulation of the int and cI genes by cII/cIII provides for coordinate regulation of both major events of the lysogenic response, establishment of repression and insertion of viral DNA.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266191"}

Sialidase (neuraminidase; acylneuraminyl hydrolase; EC 3.2.1.18)-treated erythrocytes obtained from different species are susceptible to rapid elimination from the circulation and are sequestered in the liver and spleen. The present studies were concerned with the mechanism of this clearance and how it may relate to the normal physiological process of removing senescent erythrocytes from the circulation. The results obtained indicate a preferential recognition of sialidase-treated as compared to normal erythrocytes by mono-nuclear spleen cells and Kupffer cells of the liver. This recognition manifests itself in both autologous and homologous systems by adhesion of the complementary cells in the form of rosettes, and as such could explain the removal of enzyme-treated erythrocytes from the circulation with their accumulation in liver and spleen. This phenomenon may represent a normal physiological mechanism for removal of senescent erythrocytes containing decreased sialic acid.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266192"}

Determination of the amino acid sequence of the immunogenic polypeptides of hepatitis B surface antigen may not only permit molecular localization of the distinct determinants a, d, and y but may also lead to the synthesis of a hapten useful in prophylactic immunization against hepatitis B virus infection. For this purpose, purified monotypic hepatitis B surface antigen of adw subtype was resolved into equal amounts of two major polypeptides (22,000 and 28,000 daltons) and up to six other minor polypeptides by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. With the periodate staining reaction, only the 28,000-dalton polypeptide stained as a glycoprotein. Guinea pigs immunized with the 22,000-dalton polypeptide produced potent antisera against determinants a and d, but the 28,000-dalton glycoprotein did not induce a response. Both polypeptides isolated by preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed amino acid composition identical with that of the intact antigen. For both polypeptides, hydrazinolysis gave Ile as the carboxyterminus, and carboxypeptidase A digestion gave the same terminal sequence, Val-Tyr-Ile. Both peptides also yielded an identical sequence of amino acids in nine steps of Edman degradation--Met-Glu-Asn-Ile-Thr-Ser(Cys)-Gly-Phe-Leu.

We determined whether the limited repair capacity for ultraviolet damage was affected by treatment with N-acetoxy-2-acetylaminofluorene. To measure repair we determined unscheduled DNA synthesis and the number of sites sensitive to an ultraviolet endonuclease in an assay using an extract of Micrococcus luteus. The nuclease does not act on DNA treated with the chemical. The amount of unscheduled DNA synthesis due to a combined chemical and ultraviolet treatment was the sum of those observed from the separate treatments, even at saturation doses. The combined treatment did not affect the removal of nuclease-sensitive sites.

A clear dissociation occurred between the respective evolution patterns of basal and agonist-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities. The magnitudes of the enzyme response to PGE1, adenosine, and dopamine also exhibited different evolution patterns during the cell cycle. Evolution of adenylate cyclase responsiveness to PGE1 during the cell cycle exhibited striking similarities with the intracellular 3':5'-cyclic AMP changes observed elsewhere. Use of theophylline and fluphenazine as specific inhibitors of adenosine and dopamine, respectively, made it possible to demonstrate that adenosine, dopamine, and PGE1 stimulated adenylate cyclase through independent receptor sites. Furthermore, whatever the stage of the cell cycle, responses to these three agonists were not additive, indicating that the receptors of adenosine, dopamine, and PGE1 control the same adenylate cyclase moieties.

The close relationship among the three loci is indicated by the observation that hybrid enzymes of intercistronic origin form when the loci in different genomes carry alleles coding homodimers with unlike migration rates. Homozygous individuals fixed for different alleles in different genomes produce hybrid enzymes and, when self-fertilized, they breed true for isozyme patterns normally found only in the heterozygotes of diploid species. Biochemical diversity due to this \"fixed heterozygosity\" is high in F. microstachys; although this species is more than 99% self-fertilized the proportion of individuals with at least one heterodimer exceeded 61% in all of the 16 natural populations studied and it exceeded 92% in 11 of the populations.

The surface of zymosan (Zy), by affording a protected microenvironment for C3b and the amplification convertase stabilized by properdin, P,C3b,Bb, shifts the alternative complement pathway from slow fluid phase turnover to the amplification phase of its expression. This mode of activation is in contradistinction to that of the classical pathway, which follows conversion of a proenzyme, Cl, to its active form, C1. Under conditions in which the control proteins, C3b inactivator (C3bINA) and beta1H, completely, inactivated C3b on the sheep erythrocyte intermediate, EAC4b,3b, the activity of C3b bound to Zy,ZyC3b, was diminished by only one-third. Further, when ZyC3b was converted to ZyC3b,Bb,P there was an additional point of deregulation in that the convertase was resistant to beta1H-mediated decay-dissociation while P,C3b,Bb on the sheep erythrocyte exhibited the usual susceptibility to beta1H. That Zy alone could indeed promote rapid C3 cleavage by the alternative pathway through assembly and protection of the amplification convertase on its surface was demonstrated with a mixture of alternative pathway proteins, C3,B,D,P, C3bINA, and beta1H, that had each been purified to homogeneity. Interaction of these proteins at one-tenth their relative serum concentrations with Zy permitted low-grade inactivation of C3 and B to advance to the level of amplification after a 15 min lag period. Because the reaction of the purified proteins proceeded spontaneously when either regulatory protein was deleted, the effect of Zy was attributed to deregulation rather than to conversion of one of the proteins to a specific initiating state. The alternative pathway, through the normal presence of D, interacts with a microbial surface, such as Zy, to amplify deposition of C3b by circumvention of endogenous regulatory mechanisms, thereby augmenting host defense.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266208"}

The cells of origin of this tract were identified using horseradish peroxidase (donor:hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.11.1.7) as a retrograde marker. Injections of horseradish peroxidase confined primarily to the basal optic root nucleus labeled displaced ganglion cells of the contralateral retina. Cell sizes were 18-30 micronm and the dendrites of these cells were confined to the first stratum of the inner plexiform layer. Approximately 3700 displaced ganglion cells were labeled after injections of horseradish peroxidase into basal optic root. In contrast, no displaced ganglion cells were labeled after injections of horseradish peroxidase into the optic tectum, which labeled only cells in the ganglion cell layer proper. These findings indicate that displaced ganglion cells constitute a unique population of retinal neurons that give rise to a bisynaptic pathway directed to the cerebellum via the nucleus of the basal optic root. These displaced ganglion cells may play a major role inoculomotor reflexes.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266216"}

The desert cockroach, Arenivaga investigata, can gain weight by absorption of water-vapor from unsaturated atmospheres above 82.5% relative humidity. Blocking the anus or the dorsal surface with wax does not prevent water vapor uptake, but interference with movements of the mouthparts or blocking the mouth with wax-prevents such uptake. Weight gains are associated with the protrusion from the mouth of two bladder-like extensions of the hypopharynx. During absorption these structures are warmer than the surrounding mouthparts, their surface temperature increasing with relative humidity. This suggests that the surfaces of the bladder-like structures function at least as sites for condensation of water vapor, but the precise location of its transfer into the hemolymph has not yet been identified.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266217"}

Interaction of neurogenic and myogenic factors that control heart rate was studied. Sympathetic nerve actions and stretch of the sinoatrial node both have an accelerator effect which appears to be competitive, and additive rather than facilitatory. In contrast with this, the accelerator effects of sinoatrial node stretch were proportionately greater when stretch was applied during a slowing produced by vagus nerve stimulation. The hyperpolarizing effect of vagus nerve stimulation or acetylcholine apparently potentiates the accelerator effects consquent to the depolarizing actions of stretch. The myogenic reaction can be considered as playing a role in maintaining cardiac output and preventing excessive slowing or diastolic distension and a deficient circulation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266218"}

The data showed a significant difference in remission duration between the two groups, with median remission lengths for the maintained and unmaintained groups being 10.3 and 6.7 months, respectively (p<.05). In 46 percent of the maintained patients there were remissions lasting longer than 11 months, whereas in none of the unmaintained patients was there such a prolonged remission. No significant drug-induced toxicity was observed. That the prolonged exposure to these chemotherapeutic agents, which were also used in our induction program, did not adversely affect the rate of successful reinduction therapy was shown by identical 50 percent complete remission rates for second inductions in both groups.

A group of 57,518 industrial workers of Gujarat, India were screened for oral cancerous and precancerous oral lesions between 1967 and 1971. All subjects were 35 years of age or older and 95 per cent were males. The 27,841 oral lesions found were examined by cytologic scrapings and 13,230 were biopsied. Also, all lesions were followed clinically to assure a malignancy was not overlooked. There were 51 oral cancers diagnosed (.18% of the lesions and .09% of the entire study group). Computing all the cytologic smears, there was an overall accuracy exceeding 99 per cent. When assessing just the malignancies, the accuracy decreased to 80.4 per cent. Since there was a high degree of clinical suspicion on the part of the screeners, only one unsuspected cancer was discovered by cytology. There were four false positive interpretations; and 53 other specimens classified as \"suspicious\" subsequently were shown to be benign. Although exfoliative cytology has proved useful in assessing oral lesions as an adjunct to biopsy, the low frequency of oral cancer limits the value of this technique as a screening modality. Most false negatives have been associated with leukoplakic (hyperkeratotic) lesions. Therefore, in a persistent oral lesion, even though a cytologic scraping may not be suspicious or characteristic of malignancy, a biopsy should still be strongly considered.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266329"}

The oxytocinase activity curves in women with cytolytic smears were similar to those in patients with the \"before term\" smear patterns, which persisted before delivery. The average oxytocinase activity in women with the inflammatory smears was at first the highest and later it decreased most rapidly of all the groups under consideration. The maternal serum alkaline phosphatase and its heat-stable fraction in pregnant patients with \"post-partum\" and persisting \"at term\" smears were at first the lowest and just before labor the highest of all the cytologic pregnancy patterns.

Anderson Hospital and Tumor Institute over a 24-year period, form the basis of this study. These cases provide a basis for comparison of those patients currently receiving adjuvant chemotherapy with those who did not receive such treatment. Anatomic findings in 54 cases subjected to complete postmortem examinations were analyzed. Three significant findings emerged: pulmonary metastases were observed in all but one case, lymph-node metastases were found in only four cases, and in all metastases the histologic pattern reproduced that of the primary lesion. In addition, patients less than 26 years old had a significantly earlier appearance of pulmonary metastases than patients past this age. Patients with osteoblastic tumors had the poorest survival rate, followed by those with chondroblastic lesions. Those with fibroblastic tumors survived longest. In the overall study of 243 cases, tumors in the distal end of the femur and the proximal end of the tibia accounted for 147 cases, representing 60.5% of the cases. The highest incidence of the tumor was in the second decade of life, with 76.5% of the cases occurring in patients less than 25 years old. Three-year survival for the series was 21.7%, with only 12.6% surviving five years. Persons with primary lesions in the facial bones had the highest survival rate. Those with lesions in the humerus, tibia, and distal end of the femur had decreasingly lower survival rates. The lowest survival rates were for patients with lesions of the torso. In the femoral cases, size was a factor in survival; no patient with a tumor larger than 10 cm survived longer than five years. The surgery, irradiation, and chemotherapy employed--individually or in combination--did not alter appreciably the mortality rate for this tumor; only 12.6% of the patients survived five years or longer.  Survivals were directly attributable to surgical procedures, including resection of pulmonary metastases.

The workshop was designed to provide an in-depth review of present knowledge and to identify future goals and directions for research on guiding, altering, and thus controlling growth and development of the cranofacial skeleton. The agenda for discussion ranged from molecular biology to clinical arts such as orthopedics and surgery. It was evident during the workshop that the mechanisms and procedures for controlling craniofacial morphogenesis must be derived from many biologic, physical, and  clinical fields of knowledge. It is hoped that there will evolve an interdisciplinary clinical art which is aimed at preventing and correcting craniofacial deformities. Substantial biologic information has already been accumulated on the craniofacial skeleton. The clinical art of correcting malocclusion through mechanical forces is now applicable to the entire skull. The outstanding technical accomplishments of radical surgery in the correction of congenital craniofacial anomalies show that the needed surgical skills are now available. When these resources are combined, an area of knowledge and a clinical discipline which might be called \"orthocephalics\" is already identifiable.

Three discriminant groups of mandibular prognathism of various degrees of severity were discernible when comparisons of treatment categories simulating clinical decisions were made. The ORTHO group was distinguished from the SUB group in the horizontal plane and, more strongly, in the vertical plane. The ORTHO group was distinguished from the SET group in the vertical plane and, more strongly, in the horizontal plane. The SUB group was distinguished from the SET group in the horizontal plane. 2.

The distortion of the gonial angle in lateral roentgenographic head films was studied in skull material. The left and the right gonial angles were determined craniometrically and roentgenocephalometrically, and the observations were compared. Mean difference of 8.48 degrees and 5.15 degrees between the roentgenocephalometric and the craniometric registrations were found for the side closer to the film and the side farther away from it, respectively. For the intermediate gonial angle, the difference was 6.65 degrees. The differences were all statistically significant. It was demonstrated that they were mainly attributable to a systematic method error in the roentgenocephalometric method, involving a magnification of the gonial angles. The magnification was significantly larger on the side closer to the film than on the side farther away from it. A pronounced individual variation in gonial angle distortion was observed. For intermediate gonial angle it ranged between magnifications of 1.17 degrees and 17.54 degrees. The distortion is closely associated with the form of the mandible. It is largest in mandibles with a pronounced divergence of the two halves of the corpus and a pronounced upward convergence of the rami. It is smallest in mandibles with a modest divergence of the two halves of the corpus and a pronounced upward divergence of the rami. By some very special combinations of corpus divergence and ramus inclination, a correct reproduction may be obtained. No such cases were found in the sample studied, but there can hardly be any doubt that they exist. There is an association between corpus divergence and ramus inclination. Maximum magnifying effect of the forward-extending leg tends to coincide with the maximum magnifying effect of the upward-extending leg. Conversely, minimum magnifying effect of the forward-extending leg tends to coincide with a dimishing effect of the upward-extending leg. This is the clue to an understanding of the great individual variation in gonial angle distortion. Generally speaking, lateral head films do not permit reliable registrations of the gonial angle.

The importance of the growth in the nasal septum for the development of the facial skeleton has often been stressed. An increase in dimension is well-known from radiographs. It was the purpose of the present study to describe the normal pattern of the growth sites of the nasal septum according to age and sex by histological and microradiographical examination of human autopsy material. The nasal septum was removed from 66 boys and 57 girls who had died in accidents. Decalcified sections for conventional histology as well as undecalcified sections for microradiography were prepared. The superior surface and posterior margin of the vomer as well as the vomeroethmoidal and the vomeromaxillary sutures were studied. It was obvious that increase in size of the vomer could mainly be ascribed to apposition on the superior surface and the posterior margin. This was seen until adult age. After the ethmoid bone was ossified, the connection between the vomer and the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone was a slightly sinuous suture in which growth occurred until puberty. The growth pattern implied that a forward, downward sliding of the vomer must take place in relation to the ethmoid bone and the cartilaginous septum. Frontal sections revealed that, after the establishment of the suture between the vomer and the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid, a cartilage island was embedded in the vomer surrounded by thin, fenestrated cortical bone blades. This cartilage still persisted in specimens from adults. There is, on the basis of the present findings, no reason to believe that the septal cartilage plays a major role in the forward, downward growth of the maxillary complex in homo.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266387"}

Leucocytes containing a high proportion of blast cells were obtained from 11 patients with acute myeloid leukaemia, and leucocytes were also obtained from 2 normal subjects. Ferritin was partially purified from leucocyte extracts and subjected to anion-exchange chromatography and isoelectric focusing. The Fe content of leucocyte ferritin was low, and in all but one case the preparations contained isoferritins corresponding to those found in normal tissues or serum. Only some of the preparations contained the relatively acidic isoferritins which have been described as \"carcinofoetal\", but which are also present in normal heart and kidney. Ferritin from one patient contained isoferritins of lower isoelectric point than heart ferritin. These results show that there does not appear to be any specific isoelectric focusing pattern for leukaemic cells, and that assays for acidic isoferritins are unlikely to be of use in the diagnosis of leukaemia and in monitoring treatment. However, the very acidic protein found in one preparation suggests that the search for abnormal subunits of ferritin may be fruitful in acute leukaemia.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266405"}

The response following chemotherapy was significantly better in the patients whose cells failed to grow. Serial culture studies, performed in 9 patients throughout remissions of 100-1112 days, which had been maintained by intermittent chemotherapy, showed wide fluctuations in proliferative activity. These ranged from no growth to marked proliferation with predominance of clusters and small numbers of diffuse colonies, indistinguishable from the type B pattern seen in 47% of patients at first presentation.

For an experimental study with pre- and post-DMFS measures two methods of analysis were compared with respect to precision. It is shown that for large sample size, the analysis of covariance with the post-DMFS measure as criterion and the pre-DMFS measure as the covariate will be more precise than the analysis of variance of increment scores as the value of beta differs from 1. When beta is approximately 1, the two techniques will have essentially the same precision. The dental researcher interested in precision is advised, therefore, to use analysis of covariance with the pre-DMFS measure as the covariate and the post-measure as criterion rather than the traditional analysis of variance of increment scores. For large sample size, the precision of the former will tend to be at least that of the latter. The researcher is not encouraged to use analysis of covariance with the increment as the criterion; if the procedure increases precision over analysis of variance of the increments, it merely indicates that analysis of covariance (with the post-measure as criterion) should have been used originally.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266432"}

The group (59 students) was examined twice with an interval of 20.2 +/- 4.1 months. Clinical findings, augmented with bitewing radiographs and an orthopantomogram, were recorded separately for each tooth surface, and individual DMFS and DS index scores were computed. In addition, the students were interviewed with regard to oral hygiene, topical fluoride application, and dietary habits. The mean DMFS and DS index scores at the first examination were 45.0 and 9.1, respectively. At the second examination, DMFS was 46.4 and the number of new decayed surfaces per student 0.54/year. Both the latter values indicated that caries progression was slow. The increment of dental caries among the dental students was much smaller than that observed earlier among other groups of university students in Finland. Further evidence that caries progression among the dental students was slow was provided by the finding that of the 318 incipient caries lesions recorded at the first examination, no more than 11 had developed into clinical caries by 20 months.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266436"}

The Plaque and Gingival indices were recorded 1 month prior to the study, at the start, and at 4, 8, and 12 months. One month prior to the study calculus and bacterial plaque were thoroughly removed from all teeth. During the study period only the experimental teeth were cleaned.

Following the initial tooth cleaning and during the preexperimental period the Plaque and Gingival indices decreased to a low level on both the experimental and control teeth (mean P1I = 0.4, mean GI = 0.3). This high standard of oral hygiene and gingival health was maintained throughout the study period, and no differences could be observed between experimental and control teeth.

Root surface roughness, resulting from calculus removal by hand curette, ultrasonic curette and rotating diamond or Roto-Pro points, was examined by combined use of microroughness measurements and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Mandibular incisors were placed in a jaw model with a rubber \"gingiva\" in an attempt to simulate a clinical situation. After cleaning with the various instruments, the surface roughness was measured by an industrial profilometer followed by SEM evaluation. A microroughness index (MRI) was developed and showed that the instruments could be separated into three groups, where the hand curette produced least roughness, followed by the Roto-Pro instrument, while the ultrasonic curette and the diamond left the most uneven surfaces. A SEM roughness index (SRI) based on defined criteria, corresponded well with the results from the profilometer measurements, except that using this index the diamond scored higher than the ultrasonic curette. This was probably due to considerable calculus remnants remaining in the ultrasonic specimens. Characteristic features of the root surface morphology of the cleaned teeth are described.

Four hundred and seventy tuberculosis patients were each skin tested with four of a range of 17 mycobacterial reagents in four countries in all of which tuberculosis and leprosy were endemic. Sixteen of the reagents were new tuberculins prepared from extracts of living mycobacteria disrupted by ultrasonic disintegration and the last was PPD, RT23.The effect that tuberculosis exerted on the delayed-type skin test response to these antigens was assessed by comparing results for tuberculosis patients with those for Tuberculin positive and Tuberculin negative control populations. Tuberculosis patients on Rifampicin therapy showed no difference in their skin test responses to any of the antigens from those patients on other forms of antituberculosis treatment.Amongst the normal population it was found that possession of Tuberculin positivity was associated with an enhanced response to all the other mycobacterial antigens with the exception of A(*)-in which demonstrated a reciprocal relationship with Tuberculin in Burma. It was also noted, in Burma particularly, that sensitization to mycobacterial species other than Mycobacterium tuberculosis, especially to the slow growers, plays a role in determining responses to different mycobacterial species.In tuberculosis patients enhanced skin test responses were also seen but only in those countries, e.g. Libya, where the prevalence of mycobacterial species was low. Where mycobacteria were common, as in Burma, the converse was true and tuberculosis was associated with a diminished skin test response to each antigen. The high prevalence of A(*)-in positivity in Burma, its reciprocal relationship with Tuberculin there and the results for all the antigens in the tuberculosis patients indicate that the cell mediated skin test response may have a threshold. If this is exceeded the skin test becomes negative so that non-reactors then include those who have been excessively sensitized as well as those who have not been sensitized. Despite this, a greater percentage of tuberculosis patients in each country responded to the specific reagent Tuberculin than did the control populations and their mean positive induration sizes were consistently larger. Nevertheless, amongst the tuberculosis patients in Burma 13% were complete non-reactors to Tuberculin and this apparent anergy also applied to the other reagents with which these individuals were tested.This differs from lepromatous leprosy where the anergic state pertains exclusively to M. leprae and a few seemingly closely related species. The breadth of anergy in M. ulcerans infection has not been measured but it is known to effect both Burulin and the PPD, RT23.Just as in leprosy and M. ulcerans infection, tuberculosis can be shown to have a disease spectrum here detected by multiple skin testing. The significance of this spectrum and its similarities with and differences from that of the other mycobacterioses is discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266538"}

In addition, HAI antibody titres were determined in 46 seronegative schoolgirls after vaccination with the Cendehill strain and revaccination with the RA27/3 strain.All seronegative women vaccinated with the RA27/3 strain developed antibody, peak titres being reached 6 weeks after vaccination. Six months after vaccination with the Cendehill strain, 45 (98%) of the 46 seronegative girls had developed antibody, but 11 (24%) had not reached their peak titre by 6 weeks, suggesting a slower response than that elicited by the RA27/3 strain. Revaccination did not induce significant antibody responses in the seronegative women vaccinated 6 months previously with RA27/3 but 4 naturally immune women developed an eightfold increase in antibody. In 10 (22%) of 46 schoolgirls previously vaccinated with the Cendehill strain a significant rise in antibody followed revaccination with RA27/3. These results provide further evidence of the more rapid antibody responses elicited by the RA27/3 vaccine in comparison with the Cendehill vaccine.An outbreak of natural rubella occurred in 1972 and 97 cases were confirmed serologically. The clinical disease was more common in older school-children and in adults. More males than females were affected in the 11-15 age group, the sex ratio being 18:12; this may be explained by the routine vaccination of girls of this age group as part of the national programme which began in 1970.

This study suggests that: 1. The porous plastic material tested is compatible with and showed no undesirable reactions in subcutaneous, intracerebral, intramuscular, and especially, intraosseous sites. 2. By standardizing porosity (e.g., a desired hole, any dimension, uniformly distributed) with the implant material (P.P.M.M.), one can predict with a degree of certainty that connective-tissue (collagen fibers) or hard-tissue (osteogenesis and reparative bone) ingrowth into these micropores will definitely occur. 3. The various shapes employed for implantation of the plastic material were not carcinogenic and did not cause a malignant reaction in any implanted region. 4. A close \"amalgamation\" with adjacent tissues was a result regardless of the implant site (e.g., intramuscular, intracerebral, or subcutaneous). Intraosseously, there was a variation. Depending upon the pore size, one observes either connective tissue or osseous ingrowth into the micropores. At a 100 micron pore size (B material), connective tissue ingrowth into the P.P.M.M. was seen. At the 450 micron size (E material), osseous tissue ingrowth into the P.P.M.M. was clearly observed. 5. The P.P.M.M. implant material can be used as a tooth replacement (e.g., for a root) at a small pore size (100 micron) and as a bone replacement (e.g., for bony defects) at a larger pore size (450 micron). 6. To secure vascularization of the implant material, porosity throughout is indicated at a large pore size. Surface porosity regardless of size will encourage only soft-tissue ingrowth into the implant material. 7. Any hard-tissue size or shape can be duplicated with the material, at any pore size, with compatibility to the adjacent tissue, regardless of the region of placement in the body. 8. There is a possibility of bone \"induction\" or stimulation of bone growth in predetermined directions with all its implications (e.g., periodontal disease).

The distinction between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) has hitherto relied on supporting evidence of characteristic radiological changes in the sacroiliac joints, together with the Rose-Waaler and Latex tests for rheumatoid factor (RF). This distinction has remained incomplete since some 30 per cent of patients with RA may have sacroiliitis, a similar proportion having negative routine tests for RF. The identification of the HLA B27 antigen, present in 90 per cent of cases of AS and six per cent of the normal population, has enabled a number of cases to be recognized in which both diseases appear to co-exist. Ten cases are described in which either RA appears to have developed in patients with AS, or AS in patients with RA. They all fulfil the ARA diagnostic criteria for classical RA, and the criteria for classical AS. The likelihood of these two diseases occurring by chance in an individual might be of the order of 1:50,000 to 1:200,000.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266603"}

The incidence of the antigen B27 in JCP (55.3 per cent) was higher than in the controls (6.7 per cent). Patients with JCP could be further subdivided into four groups: (1) JCP evolving to ankylosing spondylitis (AS) (N = 3); (2) JCP with sacroiliitis (SI) (N = 18); (3) JCP without SI (N = 10); and (4) juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) characterized by positive seroloty (N = 7). Groups 1 and 2 had a high incidence of B27 (20/21), as contrasted to groups 3 and 4 (1/17). The sex distribution in groups 1 and 2 was similar to that found in AS in adults, whereas in groups 3 and 4 it was similar to that found in rheumatoid arthritis in adults. It is concluded that if B27 positives develop JCP, they also have a high risk of developing SI and acute uveitis. The authors propose using the term Still's disease for the overall group of children presenting with JCP before the age of 16 years. Subsequent follow-up permits classification into juvenile AS, JCP with SI, JCP without SI, or as JRA.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266604"}

Comparison with one control population showed a significant excess of BW15 in both disease samples, while a comparison with two other control populations, showed the excess not to be significant. Possible reasons for this discrepancy are discussed, together with the effect on statistical significance of a small percentage of false antigen assignments in one of the samples. A small systematic serological false assignment of an antigen can, by itself, produce a significant result more easily if the frequency of the antigen being detected is low than if it is high.

Structural details are reported for a novel right-handed polynucleotide double helix stabilized by vertical base stacking and hydrogen bonding. The primary difference between this duplex and the familiar Watson-Crick horizontally stabilized polynucleotide complex arises in the glycosyl rotation of the heterocyclic bases with respect to the sugar-phate backbone. In the vertical double helix the bases adopt a fairly unusual (although not sterically impossible) high-anti conformation, while in the horizontal models deduced from x-ray analyses the bases occur in the favored anti arrangement. The base pairing scheme in both duplexes is the standard Watson-Crick type. The vertical double helix is demonstrated to be a plausible model for the unusual complex formation observed between complementary synthetic polycyclonucleotides (the bases of which are fixed by a chemical linkage in the high-anti orientation) and also a potential alternative ordered structure available to naturally occurring nucleic acid systems that can adopt both anti and high-anti glycosyl arrangements.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266701"}

The circular dichroism and absorption spectra of (3'-5')ApA, (5'-5')AppA, and (5'-5')ApcpA [diadenosine(5'5') pyrophosphonate] under various ionic coditions and at various temperatures are reported. Temperature studies reveal that under the same ionic strength and solvation conditions the probability of base-base interaction is ApA greater than AppA greater than ApcpA. It is found that increasing the molar refractivity of the solvent decreases the base-base interaction for both ApA and AppA and that both compounds proceed to a monomeric state in solvents of high molar refractivity. Solvent effect studies also indicate that a major percentage of the driving force for the base-base interaction can be accounted for by London dispersion forces. Low ionic strength appears to favor the base-base interacted conformation. All compounds tend toward the same noninteracted form at high temperatures. Plots of [theta]lambda against X (where X is an experimental parameter) were constructed in order to obtain information concerning which transitions might be undergoing oscillator coupling. To a first approximation, transitions coupled to each other should have very similar deta[theta]lambda/detaX for the experimental range of X.

The contribution of the porphyrin skeleton to the potential energy surface metalloporphyrins is calculated by the semiempirical method of quantum mechanical extension of the consistent force field to eta electron molecules. This calculation makes it possible to correlate the observed structure of metalloporphyrins with the strain energy of the porphyrin skeleton. It is found that the out-of-plane metal displacement in pentacoordinate heme systems is due to both the restricted size of the porphyrin hole and the \"1-3\" steric interaction between the axial ligand and the heme nitrogens. The main components of the active site of hemoglobin are simulated by a histidine-heme-oxygen system. The energy surface of this system provides a quantitative explanation for the control of ligand binding by hemoglobin. It is shown that the heme acts as a diaphragm, designed to provide simultaneous binding to the histidine and the sixth ligand under the steric requirements of the 1-3 interactions. The dependence of the hemoglobin potential surface on the distance between the proximal histidine and the heme plane is evaluated for the R and T states, using the calculated heme potential and the observed energy of heme-heme interaction.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266703"}

Hormone-induced changes in mRNA were also demonstrated by determining the kinetics of hybridization of a cDNA probe prepared from RNA enriched (about 70%) for growth hormone translational activity with RNA from control and hormone-treated cells.

The synthetic COOH-terminal octapeptide, C3a-(70-77) or Ala-Ser-His-Leu-Gly-Leu-Ala-Arg, caused contraction of guinea pig ileum and uterus, release of vasoactive amines from rat mast cells, and increased vascular permeability in guinea pig and human skin. On a molar basis, the synthetic octapeptide possessed 1-2% of the biological activities of C3a and specifically desensitized smooth muscle to stimulation by C3a. Like natural C3a, the synthetic C3a=(70-77) was inactivated by digestion with carboxypeptidase B [peptidyl-L-lysine(-L-arginine) hydrolase, EC 3.4.12.3], which removed the essential COOH-terminal arginine. A synthetic nonapeptide [C3a-(70-77)-Gly], containing a glycyl instead of an arginyl COOH terminus, was approximately 1% as active as the octapeptide when assayed with smooth muscle. The COOH-terminal 13-residue peptide of C3a, C3a-(65-77), was equal in activity to C3a=(70-77); similarly, C3a-(65-77)-Gly expressed the same activity as C3a-(70-77)Gly. It is concluded that both the biological specificity and the activity of human C3a anaphylatoxin are determined by eight or fewer residues located at the COOH terminus of the natural protein.

Analytical reversed-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography of the DNA hydrolysate revealed that approximately 90% of the carcinogen bound to DNA could be accounted for as a single component. Preparative high-pressure liquid chromatography was used to isolate sufficient quantities of the adduct for structural analysis from large quantities (340 mg) of DNA. A combination of spectral and chemical data indicates that the major product of the interaction of metabolically activated aflatoxin B1 and DNA is 2,3-dihydro-2-(N7-guanyl)-3-hydroxyaflatoxin B1 with the guanine and hydroxyl functions possessing a trans configuration.

The trace metals nickel and platinum, which are not substrates for ferrochelatase and thus do not form heme in biological systems, were found to act similaryl to cobalt, and heme itself, in regulating heme metabolism in liver and kidney. These metals induced heme oxygenase activity in both organs with the peak of induced enzyme activity reached approximately 16 hr after single injections in rats. Both metals caused transient depression of cellular glutathione content followed by increases above normal after 12 hr in liver. Nickel and platinum were more potent inducers of heme oxygenase in kidney than in liver (10-13 times normal versus 5-6 times normal). At high concentrations, they inhibited heme oxygenase [heme, hydrogen-donor:oxygen oxidoreductase (alpha-methene-oxidizing, hydroxylating), EC 1.14.99.3] in vitro. Both were active in regulating heme metabolism only when administered in the ionic form. Complexing of the metals with sulfhydryl agents completely blocked their actions on heme metabolism. Administration of cysteine orally prior to or shortly after administration of the metals had a similar blocking effect. Nickel and platinum produced depression of delta-aminolevulinate synthase [succinyl-CoA:glycine c-succinyltransferase (decarboxylating), EC 2.3.1.37] activity in liver, but neigther inhibited this rate-limiting ennzyme for heme synthesis in vitro. Furthermore, despite the substantial decreases in cellular heme and hemoprotein contents mediated by the metal, production of delta-amimolevulinate synthase did not undergo the compensatory increase that would be expected if there were a direct reciprocal feedback relationship between cellular heme level and synthesis of this enzyme. These findings indicate that it is not necessary for metal ions to be chelated in the porphyrin ring in order to regulate the enzymes of heme synthesis and heme oxidation. Accordingly, it is suggested that the iron atom of heme is the proximately active regulator of delta-aminolevulinate synthase and heme oxygenase--actions generally ascribed to the iron-tetrapyrrole complex itself--and that the tetrapyrrole moiety of the complex functions primarily as a means of transport of the metal to regulatory sites in cells.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266710"}

It results from a change in the mode of the interaction between histone H1 and the chromosome fiber and is very likely the consequence of a change from cooperative binding between histone H1 and DNA to a noncooperative binding.

Voltage pulsation of the erythrocyte suspension can induce a transmembrane potential across the cell membrane and, at a critical point, it either opens up or creates pores in the red cells. In isotonic saline the pores are small. They allow passage of potassium and sodium ions but not sucrose and hemoglobin molecules. The pores are larger in low ionic conditions and permit permeation of sucrose molecules, but under no circumstances can hemoglobin leak out as the direct result of the voltage pulse. Kinetic measurements indicate that the hemolysis of the red cells follows a stepwise mechanism: leakage of ions leads to an osmotic imbalance which in turn causes a colloidal hemolysis of the red cells. Other effects of the voltage pulsation are also discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266714"}

A large fraction of the phospholipid protons of bovine retinal rod outer segment (ROS) disc membrane vesicles yield well-resolved nuclear magnetic resonance lines near physiological temperature. The spin-lattice (T1) relaxation rates of the resolved sharp resonance of ROS disc membranes appear biphasic above 10 degrees C. The rate of the more rapidly relaxing component of each resonance matches closely the relaxation rate of the corresponding resonances of liposomes of purified ROS phospholipids. The slowly relaxing component of each disc membrane resonance is most likely due to phospholipids whose motion is affected by rhodopsin. The primary difference in the relaxation behavior of phospholipids in the ROS membrane vesicles and ROS liposomes appears to be in T1, rather than T2, since the corresponding sharp resonances of both preparations have similar linewidths. These observations suggest that the interaction of rhodopsin with the more fluid membrane phospholipids predominantly affects relatively high frequency segmental motions, which determine T1, while having minimal effects on the lower frequency segmental motions, which influence T2. This conclusion can be rationalized by assuming that a substantial fraction of the interacting phospholipids are relatively fluid with respect to less frequent, larger amplitude segmental motions, but that the more frequent segmental motions (such as beta-coupled trans-gauche isomerizations) are significantly restricted by interaction with protein.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266718"}

The effect of temperature on the extent of association of self-assembling protein polymers is expressed mathematically in terms of the van't Hoff enthalpy of polymerization, deltaHV.H. This quantity has been experimentally defined in two ways--from the respective temperature derivatives of the critical polymerization concentration and of the fractional conversion of protein into polymer. These two definitions are shown not to be identical, except in certain limits. In terms of both definitions, it is shown that deltaHV.H. depends not only upon the enthalpy changes but also upon the corresponding equilibrium constants for the various equilibria involved in polymer formation. This has two consequences: (i) large deltaHV.H. values may result from reactions having small calorimetric enthalpy changes; and (ii) deltaHV.H. can depend strongly on temperature. These considerations are applied to two systems for which there exist considerable experimental data--namely, hemoglobin S and tubulin. The large discrepancy between the calorimetric and van't Hoff enthalpies for the polymerization of tubulin is shown to be explicable in terms of these considerations.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266719"}

However, pseudoplasmodia formed from cells grown at 23.5 degrees are thermotactic only from 22 degrees to 27.5 degrees. Thus, a temperature dependence of migration rate is not sufficient to explain thermotaxis. Because random lateral movements by the pseudoplasmodia have not been observed, the measurement of the temperature gradient appears to be spatial rather than temporal, with a half-maximal thermotactic response to a temperature gradient of about 0.04 degree/cm, or 0.0004 degree across an average pseudoplasmodium.

Human beta-glucuronidase (beta-D-glucuronide glucuronosohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.31), like many other glycoprotein lysosomal hydrolases, is specifically taken up from the culture medium by human fibroblasts. Prior work has indicated that the enzyme exhibits charge heterogeneity and that \"high-uptake\" forms, i.e., those rapidly internalized by human fibroblasts, are more acidic than slowly internalized forms. Here we present two lines of evidence that the acidic group required for the high-uptake property of certain forms of the enzyme is a phosphate on, or in proximity to, a D-mannose-type carbohydrate. The first line of evidence was obtained from analysis of inhibition of enzyme pinocytosis by yeast mannans, phosphorylated sugars, and sugars. Mannans that contained phosphate were more potent inhibitors than those that did not contain phosphate. D-Mannose 6-phosphate was a more potent inhibitor than either D-mannose 1 phosphate or 2-deoxy-D-glucose 6-phosphate. D-Mannose and certain related sugars were weak pinocytosis inhibitors, while 2- and 4-epimers of mannose were noninhibitory. Competitive inhibition was demonstrated and the apparent Kis estimated for the following compounds: Saccharomyces cerevisiae mannan from mutant X2180-mnnl, 3 X 10(-6) M; mannan from wild-type S. cerebisiae, 3 X 10(-5) M; D-mannose 6-phosphate, 6 X 10(-5) M; L-fucose, 4 X 10(-2) M; and D-mannose, 6 X 10(-2) M. The second line of evidence comes from the observation that alkaline phosphatase [orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase (alkaline optimum), EC 3.1.3.1] treatment of human platelet beta-glucuronidase abolished its \"high-uptake\" activity, without diminishing its catalytic activity, and converted some forms of the heterogeneous enzyme to less acidic forms.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266721"}

The proliferative fraction of mononucleated cells in differentiating chick embryonic wing muscle (day 11) was measured following continuous infusion of tritiated thymidine into the embryonic circulation. During progressively longer intervals of infusion of the isotopically labeled precursor, the percentage of cells that enter S becomes larger, reaching 92% at the longest time period measured (21 hr). These observations suggest that until they are withdrawn into nonreplicative muscle syncytia, virtually all of the single cells in differentiating embryonic muscle remain in the proliferative pool. Earlier calculations of the size of this pool in developing muscle, based on the percentage of cells in S during a brief pulse, indicated, however, that less than half of the mononucleated cells are still replicating. We therefore compared the size of the proliferative fraction determined by continuous labeling with the calculation of this same parameter using our own pulse-labeling data. We find that the calculation underestimates the size of the proliferative pool and is, in fact, an estimate of only that portion of the cells whose generation times cluster around the average. This underestimate is particularly pronounced in differentiating muscle in which, concomitant with myogenic fusion, the distribution of G1 times (and consequently generation times as well) becomes longer and more highly variable. Our results suggest that the mode of administering the labeled DNA precursor profoundly affects the measurement of cell cycle parameters in vivo when these parameters exhibit considerable variability. The data presented here do not support the notion that any sizeable fraction of the myoblast population is withdrawn from the cell cycle for any significant period of time prior to fusion.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266722"}

Globin mRNA, although unchanged in size or base sequence, was reduced in content in the Me2SO+IF cultures.

A marked decrease in growth hormone secretion and growth hormone mRNA activity was observed when cells were grown in a medium deficient in thyroid hormone. Addition of triiodothyronine in physiologic amounts both prevented and completely reversed this effect within 48 hr. Thyroid hormone had no effect on prolactin secretion or prolactin mRNA activity. These data suggest that thyroid hormone may stimulate synthesis of growth hormone through induction of transcriptional activity. The possibility of an additional effect at the posttranscriptional level has not been excluded. Although thyroid hormone is believed to have a general effect on a variety of metabolic processes, some effects, at the molecular level, may be quite selective, as indicated by the observed changes in growth hormone but not prolactin mRNA activity. The GH3 cell model is useful in the study of triiodothyronine action because of independence from secondary hormonal effects caused by hypothyroidism and because simultaneous measurement of prolactin mRNA activity serves as a unique internal control.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266726"}

This effect was manifested when washed Con A-treated peripheral blood lymphocytes were added to pokeweed mitogen-stimulated cocultures containing fresh autologous or allogeneic mononuclear cells, and it did not appear to involve cytotoxicity. Parallel control cultures consisting of mononuclear leukocytes incubated for 48 hr in the absence of Con A also had immunoglobulin suppressor activity in mixing experiments. This effect, however, was most pronounced when preincubated cells were added to fresh autologous pokeweed mitogen-stimulated peripheral blood lymphocytes. Cell mixtures containing peripheral blood lymphocytes demonstrated a spectrum of immunoregulatory effects ranging from suppression to enhancement of pokeweed mitogen-stimulated immunoglobulin synthesis and secretion. Several functional subclasses of suppressor cells that reflect varying levels of specific activity have thus been demonstrated in human beings.

Stretching the right atrium produced an aceleration of the heart and a definite increase in sympathetic nerve activity. Left atrial-stretch caused biphasic responses: an initial sympathetic nerve inhibition and slower heartbeat folowed by sympathetic excitation and heart acceleration. The afferents responsible were carried mainly by the vagi; efferent neural control of the heart was mostly sympathetic. The reflex inhibition observed was integrated chiefly at the medullary level, but supramedullary structures contributed to the augmentation in sympathetic activity and heart rate. When central connections between vagal afferent and sympathetic efferent pathways were separated by cord transection, atrial stretch caused a decrease in heart rate due to reflex action through the vagal loop. After the cord was sectioned, we found that some afferent impulses from the atria traveling in sympathetic nerves produced a slight reflex augmentation of sympathetic efferent activity, though insufficient to affect the heart rate.

The susceptibility to chlorhexidine of bacteria in aerobic, facultatively anaerobic and anaerobic isolates from clinical specimens of wounds, urine, saliva, and dental plaque was studied. Agar diffusion tests using 50 microng chlorhexidine discs and agar dilution tests were performed and the MIC values correlated with inhibition zone diameters. Anaerobic plaque strains were isolated and tested by the agar dilution method in an anaerobic glove box. Regression lines obtained for five agar media demonstrated a good correlation between zone diameters and MIC values. There was a broad range of susceptibility to chlorhexidine among both Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains. Low MIC values were noted for staphylococci, S. mutans, S. salivarius and E. coli, while strains of Proteus, Pseudomonas and Klebsiella were less susceptible. S. sanguis showed intermediate susceptibility with both low and high MIC values. Among the anaerobic isolates tested, the strains most susceptible to chlorhexidine were Propionibacterium and Selenomonas, While the least susceptible strains were Gram-negative cocci resembling Veillonella.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266752"}

Two methods for collecting the material were used: A) the epithelium was isolated by the removal of subepithelial connective tissue from the connective tissue side and B) the epithelium from the epithelial side was carefully scraped off. The lipid pattern of the epithelium was dominated by cholesterol (25 mol %) and phosphoglycerides (total 45 mol %), while triglycerides and free fatty acids constituted 10-15 mol % each. The fatty acid compostitions of the lipids were remarkably similar to each other, although the specific characteristics of each individual lipid were still noticeable. All lipids showed a large proportion of linoleic acid and a relatively small proportion of other polyunsatured fatty acids.

Right heart failure was present in two. Two patients required mechanical treatment via an endotracheal tube. All the patients were discharged home with a cuirass respirator. Standard type shells were used initially with low efficiency due to the poor fit of the cuirass shell to the deformed thoracic cage. Tailor-made shells were constructed from polyester reinforced with glass fibre, modelled on plaster casts of the thoracic cage. Subjectively the patients improved greatly and were able to resume and increase many activities. One patient committed suicide for reasons unconnected with treatment but the other three patients have been doing well from the time the cuirass respirator treatment was started, respectively, 3, 6, and 10 years ago.

The rate of disapperance (k-value) of iodide from dentinal cavities was measured in anaesthetized cats. Changes in k-value reflected changes in blood flow. It has previously been shown that stimulation of sympathetic vasoconstrictor nerve fibres generally causes a clearcut decrease in the k-value. Deep cavity preparation was found to inhibit the vasoconstrictor response in a few cases in experiments on mature cats. Heating or cooling the tooth during cavity preparation induced a more frequent inhibition, which proved to be reversible within a few hours. Compound 48/80 applied locally to the cavity was also found to induce inhibition of the vasoconstrictor effect, but in this case no sign of reversibility was observed. Chronic insults were produced by exposing the cavity to oral microorganisms during 1-4 weeks before the experimental procedure. In this case, the sympathetic vasoconstrictor response was not inhibited. A histological study was performed to examine the pulp tissue after cavity preparation and the application of insults.

The present investigations in cats were designed to study the effects of local anaesthetics containing adrenaline and felypressin (octapressin) on dental pulp function. Intradental sensory nerve excitability was measured using electrodes placed in dentinal cavities in canine teeth. Changes in pulp blood flow were measured using the disappearance rate of a radioactive tracer placed in the same cavities. Injections (0.5 ml) of lidocaine (20 mg/ml) - adrenaline (12.5 microng/ml) or prilocaine (30 mg/ml) - octapressin (0.54 microng/ml) were given supraperiosteally in the apical area of the tooth. Adrenaline either alone or with lidocaine caused almost complete inhibition of pulp blood flow within a few minutes. This effect was followed by a total inhibition of the sensory nerve activity. In most cases there was a recovery of both functions after 3 hours. Octapressin, on the other hand, had no inhibitory effects on pulp blood flow or sensory nerve activity. Lidocaine and prilocaine were also without effect. These findings indicate a different mode of action of the two vasoconstrictors and suggest that octapressin may be preferred in infiltration anaesthesia during treatment of the vital tooth.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266826"}

This fine structural study of the suture, its development, structure, and response to rapid expansion has shown that the sutural complex is best described in terms of the functional activity of two cell populations, namely, the osteocytic and fibrocytic series, which have the ability to remodel the tissues which they form. It is suggested that the previous detailed descriptions of differences in fiber orientation and vascular distribution reflect functional activity of a suture at any given time rather than immutable anatomic characteristics. Development of the suture and its rapid expansion showed many similarities in that growth during development and orthopedic expansion both separate the joint. If the initial inflammatory aspect of rapid expansion is ignored, the response of the suture is one of osteogenesis and fibrillogenesis, followed finally by remodeling. It is also suggested that sutural expansion involves injury followed by a proliferative repair phenomenon which, in other tissues, usually leads to the formation of scar tissue. However, the ability of sutural connective tissue fibroblasts to remodel ultimately leads to regeneration of the suture. Finally, programmed cell death has been shown to be an important feature in the development of the suture.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266842"}

Any of these antibiotics are considered suitable for prophylactic use prior to performing oesophageal dilatation and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in \"at risk\" patients. The risk of bacteraemia is much lower after endoscopy than oesophageal dilatation for stricture or oesophageal spasm.

In 36 of the treatment courses significant relief of pain was achieved but the contribution of placebo effect could not be determined. Serum alkaline phosphatase and urinary hydroxyproline levels reached normal in a few patients, but the grouped data indicated a plateau effect above the range of normal. The acute hypocalcaemic response to calcitonin was lost only in those patients whose bone turnover was restored to normal. Quantitative histology on iliac crest bone biopsy samples showed no statisically significant lowering of osteoclast counts. No antibody-based clinical resistance occurred and the incidence of side effects was low. The results indicate that porcine calcitonin is a useful treatment of Paget's disease, and the experience of the study helps in arriving at patient selection and treatment schedules.

A review of published reports has shown that such marked Bence Jones proteinuria at presentation is rare and is usually accompanied by renal impairment and a short survival. Additional presentation data from selected patients in the MRC First Myelomatosis Trial is presented. This suggests a higher incidence of marked Bence Jones proteinuria, and underlines the lack of correlation between the quantity excreted and the degree of renal impairment.

Potassium balance is regulated by appropriate changes in potassium excretion in the distal portion  of the nephron. By contrast, potassium intake, absorption and proximal renal reabsorption do not show regulatory variation. Extracellular potassium concentration, which is a critical factor in membrane polarization, may at times vary in a direction opposite to total body content, because of altered distribution across cell membranes. Alterations in acid-base status frequently disturb homeostasis by altering potassium movement into cells, while insulin has an important regulatory effect on distribution. In general, the multiple renal and extra-renal mechanisms which prevent potassium overload are highly developed,  while conservation is relatively ineffective. Consequently, depletion occurs more easily than spontaneous potassium overload. Homeostasis can be disturbed by renal impairment, excessive tissue breakdown, disturbances of acid-base balance, abnormal routes of loss, mineralocorticoid abnormalities and aberrations of sodium balance.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266897"}

A mortality of 66% was also found in patients suffering from non-occlusive gut ischaemia. Delay in diagnosis accounted for this high mortality. Early diagnosis is all-important, and this depends on the performance of mesenteric angiography in any patient suspected of having mesenteric ischaemia. Appropriate surgery may then be carried out in the occlusive group and supportive treatment, including intraarterial papaverine infusion, given to those with non-occlusive ischaemia.

The rising proportion of women has reached a plateau. A perforated peptic ulcer in an Australian women is still just as likely to be located in the stomach as in the duodenum. In men, however, 84% of perforations are pyloroduodenal. A perforated gastric ulcer is closely associated with the use of salicylate preparations. The mortality rate has remained steady at 15% over the last 30 years. It is significantly higher in women. There is a highly significant relationship between the mortality and (a) the duration of perforation; and (b) the size of the perforation, particularly if it is located in the stomach.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/266919"}

Cellular recovery, maturation, and colony-forming cell (CFC) generation patterns of bone marrow cells from 23 patients with acute, subacute, and chronic myeloid leukemia (AML, SML, and CML) were studied using liquid and agar culture techniques. Increased recovery of proliferative myeloid cells from liquid culture was noted in 6 of 8 AML patients at diagnosis or relapse and 5 of 7 untreated SML patients. Patients with either AML or SML with rapid clinical progression exhibited greater recovery of cells in vitro with less maturation than patients with more stable disease. Studies from 3 patients with CML showed normal to increased cellular recovery with normal maturation. Three of 4 studies of AML patients followed sequentially in apparent remission, but with impending relapse, exhibited increased numbers of myeloblasts and promyelocytes, whereas 28 of 32 studies performed during stable remission were normal. The normally observed increase in CFC during liquid culture was absent in most leukemic marrow samples studied (3 of 4 AML, 4 of 6 SML, and 2 of 3 CML). Persistent low recovery of CFC during AML remission was associated in 3 patients with short remission duration.

Increased incidence of anergy to recall antigens and unresponsiveness to PHA skin testing was observed in patients with lymphoreticular malignancies but not in those with solid tumors. There was a direct correlation between skin test reactivity to at least one recall antigen and/or PHA and survival in lymphoma patients. This was true of both short and long terms survival in Hodgkin's disease and of survival at least through 42 months in non-Hodgkin's lymphomas.

Three doses each of cathodal or anodal direct current were delivered to coagulate lateral hypothalamic tissue bilaterally in rats. Increases in hypothalamic tissue damage were associated with more instances of aphagia, greater amounts of glandular, but not rumenal, gastric pathology, and greater weight loss. Both anodal and cathodal lesions produced aphagia and similar amounts of gastric pathology, but anodal lesions also appeared to facilitate weight loss independently of the tissue damage. Extensive chromatolysis surrounding anodal lesion cavities may be importantly related to the postoperative effects. In additional experiments, anodal electrolytic lesions or cortical suction ablations were used to vary the location of neural damage. Fedding deficits and gastric pathology resulted from the destruction of several brain areas. In particular, eating of dry food in the presence of high gastric pathology was observed in rats with lesions ventral and medial to an area in the dorsolateral hypothalamus that was associated with aphagia. When aphagia was accompained by severe gastric pathology, the brain lesions typically encroached extensively on more ventromedial areas. Moreover, aphagia sometimes was observed with only negligible gastric pathology. It is suggested that gastric pathology is not primary to the expression of the aphagia that follows lateral hypothalamic damage.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267084"}

Interrelationships of growth hormone and thyroxine effects on endochondral osteogenesis have been investigated. Evidence is offered that thyroxine augments the effect of growth hormone on the mandibular condyle just as at other osteogenetic centers, for example proximal tibial epiphysis in hypophysectomized rats. This contrasts with previous reports of a unique thyroxine antagonism to the effect of growth hormone on condylar development. In a further study on tibial epiphysis, special attention was given to assure absence of the endogenous thyroid hormone by adding thyroidectomy to hypophysectomy and reducing the possibility of thyroteopin residues in growth hormone. By histochemical tests, the responses of both calcified and noncalcified regions of the epiphyseal cartilage plate were measured. Graded growth hormone doses stimulated graded response in a noncalcified region. Thyroxine augmented this response eightfold.

Each dental school will fashion its own faculty evaluation system. The results will be a network of activities related to such questions as these: What are valid sources of information? Which aspects of instructors' responsibilities are most significant? Which questions need answers? How should the system be operated? This review has focused on what is currently being discussed and attempted in each of these critical areas. Faculty evaluation takes place in an essentially political context, and dental educators are now awakening to the political forces at work in the profession. Faculty evaluation is also a scientific process, or at least one capable of being greatly improved by rigorous, empirical study, which has yet to be performed. Finally, the exact form of faculty evaluation developed at each school will likely be unique, since it will depend on the institution's resources, size, funding base, academic affiliation, and the personal preferences of concerned individuals. The degree of success or failure of an evaluation system will depend on how the chosen combination of purposes, sources, objects of evaluation, and implementation strategy serves the needs of the school and its personnel.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267117"}

The criteria for each faculty member's evaluation should be clearly specified in advance and be directly linked to his duties. Department and college goals must be considered as well as the individual faculty member's own interests.

This document, negotiated at the beginning of each academic year, must satisfy both department objectives and the professional and personal requirements of the individual faculty member. It may be modified during the year if both the faculty member and his department chairman agree to the change. This document states work objectives for the year similar to learning objectives in a course. At the end of the year, each faculty member is evaluated on how well he has met his individual objectives. Information relevant to teaching, university service, and student service is gathered by college administrators and forwarded to department chairmen. Together with information on research accomplishment, these data are used by the chairman in the evaluation of each faculty member. The college has clearly charged department chairmen with the direct responsibility for faculty evaluation. The Appointments, Promotions, and Tenure Committee also plays a role in faculty development and evaluation by recommending to the dean ways of improving individual faculty performance.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267124"}

Additional studies on partially purified lactoferrin revealed that lactoferrin binds Ga-67 more avidly than does transferrin. Since lactoferrin is present in high concentration non only in human colostrum and milk, but also in neutrophilic leukocytes, bone marrow, spleen, colon, tears, and in genital, salivary, and nasopharyngeal secretions, binding of Ga-67 to lactoferrin may explain the localization of Ga-67 in certain normal tissues and inflammatory lesions.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267143"}

We attribute this to careful selection of the level of amputation by use of preoperative bone scans, intraoperative frozen sections of bone stump and intensive postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. Immediate application of a prosthetic limb has enhanced the physical and emotional rehabilitation of these patients. Resections of pulmonary metastases in 12 patients who were receiving adjuvant chemotherapy has resulted in a median tumor-free survival of 17 mo, with 3 patients still alive without disease for 13, 25, and 72 mo.

The hemophiliacs were divided into three groups according to treatment pattern. Individuals who had received multiple doses of plasma fractions, derived from four or more commercial lots were placed in tgroup I \"large Exposure\". Group II \"Small Exposure\" had been treated with fractions from three or fewer lots and Group III \"Cryo\" had never received commercial fractions, but had been treated with cryoprecipitate. Abnormal liver function tests (LFT's) were found in 87% of Group I and 76% of Group II, but in only 16% of the \"Cryo\" group. Differences in LFT's were not great between treated VIII and IX deficient patients. All patients treated with 100,000 units or more showed either persistent or intermittent abnormalities. In the high exposure group, this history of past, overt hepatitis had no influence on observed LFT's. The sera of all patients in the high exposure and all, except one, in the low exposure groups were positive for HbsAg or anti-Hbs by RIA. Splenomegaly was found in 13% of fraction-treated patients. We conclude that there is biochemical evidence of liver disease following large exposure to commercial VIII or IX fractions, which should temper the physician's decision to start treatment with these fractions. On the other hand, evidence that their continued use produces mounting liver dysfunction is insufficient to withdraw this very effective and life-changing treatment from these individuals.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267294"}

From these figures, and, knowing that the average number of factor VIII units used per patient per years was 8,116 for the moderate and 11,592 for the severe haemophiliacs, it has been calculated that home treatment would require 6,000-10,000 factor VIII units per patient per year for the latter class.

In 3 cases of AML an increase of the blast cell number was observed exceeding the initial value whereas in 9 other cases the cell number decreased more or less rapidly. In 9 of these patients the proliferation kinetics of the cultured leukaemic blast cells were studied with 3H-thymidine labelling. In all these cases the labelling index increased during the first days of culture, in 3 cases to values of 48%, 45% and 38% on day 3.

Although transferrin-binding activity is also demonstrable in another mouse cell line of hematopoietic origin, the lymphoma cell, it does not increase on exposure to dimethyl sulfoxide. Gel filtration studies corroborate that the binding of transferrin to the erythroleukemic cells is due to the formation of a specific complex of transferrin and a membrane receptor. Thus, the specific interaction of transferrin with its receptor is another expression of dimethyl sulfoxide-induced differentiation in the Friend cell.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267327"}

The transmural passage of malignant blood cells from the extravascular parenchyma into sinusoidal lumen has been studied in the bone marrow of rats with myelogenous leukemia. The Shay myelogenous leukemia was chosen as a model system because an increased bone marrow cellularity is, in this leukemia, usually accompanied by an increase in circulating myeloid cells. By means of light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) it was found that the sinusoidal endothelial lining of the bone marrow remains intact and continuous even in advanced stages of the disease. SEM shows that the malignant myeloblast-like cell enters the sinusoidal lumen by means of a temporary migration pore, which appears only during the transmural passage of the cell. Certain nondegenerative changes in the sinusoidal blood vessels are associated with the myelogenous leukemia. The normal radial alignment of sinusoids about the central sinusoid is changed into a tortuous pattern, and intraluminal cytoplasmic bridges which impede the blood flow are formed by the endothelial cells.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267427"}

Nonspecific esterase activity in all of these erythroblasts was inhibited by sodium fluoride. Enzymatic activity could not be detected in normoblasts from normal marrows. Electrophoretically, three bands of nonspecific esterase activity could be visualized in marrow sonicates from the anemic patients and normal persons.

The median survival of the patients with erythroblastic transformation was two months, considerably less than the four-month median survival in the entire series of 67 patients. Only two brief partial remissions were obtained with combination chemotherapy. The causes of death were primarily hemorrhage and infection, related to thrombocytopenia and neutropenia. In this regard, the patients with erythroblastic transformation resembled all the patients with blast crisis and patients with acute leukemia in general.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) isoenzymes types of granulocytes were determined in eight women with chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML). The patients were heterozygous at the X-linked G-6-PD locus for the common gene, GdB, and a variant, such as GdA, so that both B and A enzyme types were found in skin cells. In contrast to these normal cells, only one G-6-PD type was found in CML granulocytes. The fact that such single-enzyme phenotypes are found in CML granulocytes, but not in nonleukemic granulocytes, provides strong evidence that the disease has a clonal origin. Single-enzyme phenotypes were also found in erythrocytes, platelets and cultured blood macrophages indicating that these cells have a common stem cell which is the site of the abnormality in CML. In the one studied patient, no evidence was found for involvement of cultured marrow fibroblasts. Clonal origin of CML virtually excludes cell recruitment as a sole pathogenetic mechanism. Either the leukemia arises as a consequence of a rare initial event in a single cell, or a series of events occurs in a clone such that it evolves into CML, or both.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267431"}

It is perhaps noteworthy that, while only one of the twins sucked his thumb habitually, there was no difference in the degree of postnormality of the posterior teeth but merely a change in the interincisor relation and in the palatal height. It can clearly be seen from the study of these two twins that the differences between them were very small indeed and could quite easily be classed as individual variations within the same identical genetic pattern. Similarly, in any other identical twins, the way in which one differs from another must be to a similarly small degree or the cause of the difference must clearly be attributable to environmental or acquired influences. Differences which cannot be classed as other than genetic show us that the twins are fraternal or dizygous and, therefore, no more alike than would be two brothers of differing ages.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267437"}

During the period 1964 to 1976, 39 children were treated in the Adelaide Children's Hospital for splenic trauma. Twenty-four were managed without operation, while 15 were treated by splenectomy. Recently, splenic scan has helped in the diagnosis and management of splenic injuries. From our observations, it appears that non-operative treatment of a proven splenic injury is safe and the ideal initial treatment in the paediatric age group, when the spleen is the only intraabdominal organ injured, and the vital signs are stable with the application of adequate resuscitative measures.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267459"}

The polyethylene surfaces of four metal on plastic prosthetic knee joints were compared with those of four hip joint replacements, by the use of scanning electron microscopy. The acetabular components of the hip joints showed concentric machining marks, but were generally smooth, and in some areas plastic deformation of the articular surface was evident after 24 months' use. In contrast, the tibial components of knee joints removed after 12 to 22 months showed deep scoring and pitting near the centre of their articular surfaces. This appeared to be due to abrasion by a third material, possibly fragments of cement, which sometimes became embedded in the joint surface. These results indicate that wear in prosthetic knee joints may be much more rapid than in hip joint replacements made from similar materials.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267462"}

The anthropometric examination revealed a great variety of defects on both sides of the face, often barely detectable by routine inspection. It was also found that great deficiencies in the surface measurements were accompanied by great bone deficiencies.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267518"}

An assessment was made of oral manometric performance of normal speaking six- and seven-year-old boys. Readings of maximum, sustained, positive and negative pressure with bleed and nostrils occluded and open were obtained from each of forty subjects. It was found that the majority of normal speaking six- and seven-year-old boys had considerable difficulty generating and maintaining stable, maximal positive and negative pressure upon repeated trials of each of four manometric tasks. The findings of this project support the general hypothesis that oral manometric ratio data may be of questionable diagnostic value in predicting velopharyngeal adequacy for speech, particularly if ratio data must be interpreted dichotomously. The observations made were interpreted to support the view that there may be substantial differences even within the normal population in the ability to perform manometric tasks. The present results suggest that operational procedures commonly used during manometric testing merit rigorous scrutiny, re-examination and analysis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267519"}

The administration of 7.5 mg cortisone acetate im to the female on day 12, of 0.5 mg 6-aminonicotinamide im on day 14, or amniocentesis on day 14 significantly retards growth of the embryo in general and of the mandible in particular without significantly affecting deflexion of the skull base. The different spatial conditions created by disproportion between deflexion of the base and the length of the mandible cause irregularities in the course of horizontalization which lead, as a rule, to cleft palate.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267520"}

The oral conditions of 42 patients being treated for cystic fibrosis were evaluated. The patients were grouped by age and, in some aspects, were compared with a small control group of their siblings. The patient group had a lowered incidence of plaque and less gingival disease than did the control group in which every person had some amount of plaque or gingival disease. Calculus formation was minimal. The reasons for the finding of minimal plaque in the patient group could be related to several factors, including the life-long use of various antibiotic agents, the chewing of digestive enzyme supplements, the effect of medical management on tooth hardness, and the effect of stained teeth (possible tetracycline deposition) on the plaque microorganisms. It appears that the therapy for cystic fibrosis was beneficial to the periodontal health of these patients. Much further study is needed to understand the interrelationship between an altered oral environment (salivary changes in cystic fibrosis), altered microbial flora (by antibiotics, enzymes) and even altered tooth surfaces (possible tetracycline deposition). Most patients were found to have one or more oral habits. Tooth mobility was associated with tension habits. Patients who had clubbed fingers (indicating pulmonary compromise) and possibly a severe disease process, did not appear to have either stained teeth or the severity of the gingivitis associated with this. The relationship of tetracycline to tooth staining could not be pinpointed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267646"}

In a prolonged field trial a 4% chlorhexidine digluconate detergent scrub (Hibiscrub(R)), that had earlier proved to be an effective hand disinfectant, was studied in hospital wards. Finger tips were found to harbour more bacteria than the hand dorsum and the samples collected from them yielded more information on the bacteriological and dermatological effects of hand disinfectants in practice.In wards with a relatively low hand-washing frequency (less than 20 times in 8 hours) the bacteriological results resembled those obtained by in-use tests with volunteers. In the neonatal unit where the hand washing frequency was remarkably high, even occasionally over 100 times/8 h shift, an increase in the bacterial colony counts of the majority of the staff was recorded both before and after hand washing already after using the preparation for 1 week. Age, occupation and hand-washing frequency all correlated with the bacteriological results. Twenty-seven out of 37 persons complained of side effects such as wounds of finger tips and redness or heavy drying of the skin. Wounds, particularly on finger tips, resulted in the failure of disinfection. An increase in bacterial counts was sometimes noted without any dermatological or subjective changes. Drying of the skin was complained of less often when no increase in skin bacteria occurred.After the changeover of washing practice to a detergent followed by a rinse with spirit solution containing chlorhexidine and glycerol a decrease was recorded in the bacterial counts. It is concluded that more attention should be paid to long-term testing of hand washing and disinfection methods to ensure optimum final results in practice. It is obvious that the knowledge obtained from short time in-use testing cannot be applied to all conditions of use.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267663"}

The effect of ventilation on airborne contamination was studied in a new operating suite containing operating rooms with conventional ventilation (17-20 turnovers/h) and operating rooms with zonal ventilation, where the turnover in the central part of the room was approximately 80/h. The efficacy of the ventilation was first examined with gas tracer experiments and found satisfactory. Experiments using potassium iodide particles showed the transfer between adjacent rooms in the suite to be less than 10(-3)% with closed doors and from 1% to 2.5 x 10(-2)% when the doors were opened once a minute. The transfer between two adjacent operating rooms was calculated to be approximately 10(-4)%. There is thus little risk of spread of airborne infection between operating rooms.Experiments with potassium iodide particles showed that in operating rooms with zonal ventilation the particle concentration in the centre of the room was about one-tenth that in the periphery; in conventionally ventilated operating rooms the concentration was about one-half. With bacteria-carrying particles generated by human activity the concentration in the centre of operating rooms with zonal ventilation was about half that in the periphery both during experimental activity and operations; in conventionally ventilated operating rooms it was about equal in both cases. Bacterial counts at the periphery were found to be lower in rooms with zonal ventilation ( approximately 50 c.f.u./m(3)) than in conventionally ventilated ( approximately 70 c.f.u./m(3)).", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267664"}

The effect of temperature difference, turbulence and ventilation flow. Analytical expressions have been derived for the exchange of air across doorways or similar apertures, in terms of the temperature difference between the spaces on both sides of the opening and the net volume of air flowing through this as a result of unbalanced air supply or extract. A simple allowance for turbulence which gives reasonable correspondence with observation is included. The formulae, which assume complete air mixing on both sides of the doorway up to the plane of the aperture, predict outflows from the warmer side, when there is an excess air supply to this side, which are progressively smaller than those observed as the temperature difference rises above 2-3 degrees C and the volume of excess air supply increases to produce an averaged outflow velocity greater than 0-1-0-15 m/s. This seems to be due to lack of mixing of the warm outflowing air with the cooler air mass. A correction factor for this can be deduced as a function of the pressure difference due to the excess air supply. The limiting magnitude and general form of this function are compatible with a simple theoretical model of the air flow patterns involved.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267666"}

About 80 cases of typhoid fever are reported each year in Jamaica. There has been little change in the prevalence of different phage types of Salmonella typhi since 1961. Paratyphoid fever is rare. Standardized antimicrobial disk-sensitivity testing was performed on selected surviving salmonella strains since 1964. S. typhi has remained fully sensitive to all the agents tested except streptomycin. Other salmonellas, however have shown a significant increase in antimicrobial resistance since 1970.

Chloramphenicol was concentrated by all cells by a factor of 2 to 4 (cellular/extracellular concentration [CE] ratio). Both the uptake and efflux were rapid and temperature independent. In contrast, the influx and efflux of TAP progressed slowly at 37 degrees C over a period exceeding 30 min, the maximal C/E ratios in most instances being slightly greater than 1. Thiamphenicol was virtually excluded from cells at 0 degrees C. Cells preloaded with TAP at 37 degrees C lost little or no drug at 0 degrees C. The uptake of labeled CAP and TAP was uninfluenced by metabolic inhibitors, and was only slightly reduced by the presence of relatively large concentrations of unlabeled drug. This transport pattern is most consistent with a mechanism of simple diffusion based on partitioning of CAP in cellular compartments. It is postulated that the greater polarity of the methylsulfonyl moiety of TAP renders this drug less soluble in membrane lipids and hence more slowly diffusible.

This requires that the reconstructive method most suitable for the individual case be chosen out of the wealth of techniques. The most important ones used at our hospital are discussed on the basis of various examples.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267708"}

Patients with thyroid cyst (TC), non-toxic nodular goiter (NNG), follicular adenoma (FA) and papillary carcinoma (PC) were given a tracer dose of 125I 40h prior to surgery. Tissue specimens were hydrolysed with Pronase and their labeled iodocompound distribution determined by paper or thin layer chromatography; they were then derivatized and their stable iodoamino acids (IAA) determined by gas liquid chromatography (GLC). Specific activity (SA) of MIT, DIT and T4 was within the same range in TC, FA and grossly normal part of a PC, and was markedly lower in two NNG. SA of T3 was very high in a TC, and higher than that of other IAA, in one NNG, indicating preferential synthesis. SA of MIT and DIT was very high in grossly normal part of a second PC but stable iodothyronines were undetectable. Specimen therefore was biochemically abnormal though grossly normal. In the two abnormal specimens of PC stable IAA were undetectable, even though type of distribution of labeled IAA in one specimen closely approximated that found in TC, FA and NNG. In a second abnormal PC specimen RAI uptake was too low for analysis to be carried out.

Epinephrine, 1:30,000, 1:100,000, or 1:300,000, was injected as the vasoconstrictor around the operative field. Epinephrine concentration of 1:100,000 provided sufficient hemostasis, whereas 1:300,000 was insufficient. With the same concentration of epinephrine, GOF and modified NLA seemed to be better than the Jackson-Rees method, since the GOF and modified NLA groups showed less increase of pulse rate, blood pressure, and plethysmographic changes. A 1:30,000 concentration of epinephrine could be used safely with the Jackson-Rees method and the hemostasis with this concentration was superior to 1:100,000. However, it is recommended only for the cleft lip operation, since these patients are younger and need better hemostasis, and hypersalivation after reversal does not disturb the postoperative course. So-called epinephrine-induced arrhythmia with halothane anesthesia occurred in 1 of 34 instances with 1:300,000 solution and in 5 of 48 instances with 1:100,000 solution.

This article presents complicated neuromuscular responses (reflexes) to occlusal contacts in an oversimplified way and with analogies so that the clinical significance of these neuromuscular reflexes in diagnosis and treatment can be more easily understood.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267770"}

Four hundred twenty-two mandibular third molars were extracted in 211 patients. After extraction, one half of the surgical sites were subjected to a 175 ml. lavage with normal saline solution, and the other half received a lavage of less than 25 ml. of normal saline solution. Comparisons revealed the following: 1. The overall incidence of localized osteitis was 8.3 per cent (thirty-five of 422 sites). 2. Localized osteitis occurred at twelve of 211 (5.7 per cent) sites which were subjected to the higher-volume lavage. 3. Localized osteitis occurred at twenty-three of 211 (10.9 per cent) sites which were subjected to minimal lavage. 4. The incidence of localized osteitis was determined in the various age groups as follows: ages 15 to 20, 5.0 per cent; ages 21 to 35, 10.4 per cent; ages 26 to 30, 14.7 per cent. 5. Localized osteitis occurred at eight of 175 (4.5 per cent) partial-impaction sites, whereas it occurred at twenty-seven of 246 (11 per cent) complete-impaction sites. 6. The incidence of localized osteitis at extraction sites in female patients taking oral contraceptives was 19.4 per cent (seven of thirty-six sites). 7. Postoperative infection occurred at seven of 422 extraction sites (1.4 per cent); six of these occurred at sites which were subjected to minimal lavage. These results indicate that the use of a 175 ml. lavage with normal saline solution after extraction of mandibular third molars will significantly reduce the incidence of localized osteitis to approximately one half of that observed when only a minimal-volume lavage is used. The results also suggest that age, type of impaction, and whether the patient is taking oral contraceptives are all important factors to be considered in the incidence of localized osteitis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267872"}

Xeroradiography has several inherent technical advantages over intraoral film radiography, as well as many convenience features.

Furthermore, high-quality images of soft tissue, bone, and teeth were produced at radiation exposures up to seven times less than for conventional intraoral film radiography. This demonstration of reduced radiation exposure should further encourage research into the applicability of xeroradiography to the imaging of dental structures.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267873"}

A retrospective study of the hospital records revealed that thirteen of these latter patients had been on a cancer chemotherapeutic regimen prior to death. There was a significantly higher incidence of atrophy in the chemotherapy group (p less than 0.001) than in control patients. These findings, as well as the expected inherent susceptibility of rapidly replicating oral epithelial cells to metabolic inhibitors, suggest a causal relationship between oral atrophy and the administration of cancer chemotherapeutic agents. This atrophy may therefore represent a preliminary stage of mucosal alteration that ultimately progresses to the clinical sequelae of stomatitis and oral ulcerations frequently encountered during cancer chemotherapy.

The ability of adenosine to stimulate adenylate cyclase [ATP pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing), EC 4.6.1.1] and increase adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) levels has important biochemical consequences. These include the suppression of immune responses and cardiovascular effects. Recent investigations involving the ability of adenosine and adenosine analogs to stimulate adenylate cyclase provided experimental data that appear to be correlated with the ability of adenosine and analogs of adenosine to exist in the glycosidic high anti conformation. 9-beta-D-Arabinofuranosyladenine, which is not stable in the high anti conformation, is inactive as a stimulator of adenylate cyclase. 2'-Deoxyadenosine is also not stable in the high anti conformation but its instability may be significantly decreased by intramolecular adjustments promoted by receptor or active site interactions. 2'-Deoxyadenosine does not activate adenylate cyclase in lymphocytes when ATP is the substrate but is able to activate adenylate cyclase when 2-fluoro ATP is the substrate. The inability of certain analogs of adenosine, with bulky groups substituted for hydrogen at the 8 position of the adenine base, to activate adenylate cyclase and increase either lymphocyte or cardiac cell cAMP levels is consistent with the designation of the high anti conformation as being the conformation required for the activation of adenylate cyclase. An understanding of the glycosidic conformation required by the extracellular adenosine receptor of the adenosine molecule provides the basis for designing nucleoside analogs of adenosine that will exert a desired effect on cAMP levels. The avoidance of unwanted immunosuppressive or cardiotoxic effects can be arranged by structural changes that prohibit the high anti conformation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267918"}

We have examined the relationship between the newly synthesized mRNA that enters polysomes in sea urchin embryos and the messengerlike RNA that enters the pool of ribosome-free ribonucleoprotein particles (free RNPs or informosomes). Although the RNA in the free RNPs turns over 25% more rapidly than in the polysomes, labeling kinetics indicate that the RNA containing poly(A) [poly(A)(+)RNA] and the RNA not containing poly(A) [poly(A)(-)RNA] within each cytoplasmic compartment have very similar half-lives. The poly(A)(+)RNA from both free RNPs and polysomes binds ribosomes almost equally well in a reticulocyte lysate, and this binding is sensitive to inhibitors of initiation. The poly(A)(-)RNA from polysomes initiates as well as poly(A)(+)RNA; however, poly(A)(-)RNA from free RNPs is only half as efficient in binding to ribosomes, and by this criterion is only 50% mRNA. We have also examined the size and dynamics of shortening of the poly(A) tails of poly(A)(+)RNA from free RNPs and polysomes. Pulse-labeled poly(A) from both free RNPs and polysomes is about 180 nucleotides in length. Poly(A) shortening is very rapid in polysomes; steady-state labeled polysomal RNA is largely devoid of the 180-nucleotide-long poly(A) segments. Poly(A) shortening in free RNPs is slower; half of the poly(A) derived from steady-state free RNPs is still 180 nucleotides long. Despite this difference in the rates of poly(A) shortening, polysomes and free RNPs have very similar half-lives. There is, then, no obvious relationship between poly(A) shortening and turnover of mRNA in these embryos. The data are interpreted to mean that poly(A)(+)RNA from free RNPs is enriched for a class of mRNA that initiates less frequently in vivo than the bulk of the cellular mRNA.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267921"}

With STNV RNA the predominant incorporation product of 22,000 daltons coelectrophoreses with viral coat protein and crossreacts with antibody to viral coat protein. A similar result is obtained with TNV RNA, the only major translation product being a 30,000-dalton protein which corresponds to the coat protein by gel sizing, serological tests, and tryptic peptide analysis. Other products appearing in smaller amounts are about 63,000, 43,000, and 26,000 daltons and smaller. The possible nature of these products is discussed, as well as the unusual feature of a large, presumably multigenic, viral RNA yielding the coat protein as the predominant translation product in a eukaryotic system.

Experiments with a rabbit reticulocyte cell-free system dependent on the addition of initiation factor 3 (eIF-3) and mRNA were carried out. In this system, using ribosomal subunits, AUG(U)(n) can direct polyphenylalanine synthesis in the absence of eIF-3 at 3 mM MgCl(2). Globin mRNA was not translated under similar conditions; its translation requires the addition of eIF-3. Moreover, the maximal rate of globin synthesis was achieved when the molar ratio of eIF-3 to ribosomes was approximately 1. This was taken to indicate that some ribosomal proteins were fractionated with eIF-3 and functioned in reconstitution of salt-washed ribosomes. In our system, almost all ribosomes were active, as evident from the fact that all were found in polysomes when analyzed at the time of linear incorporation, and the molar ratio of ribosomes to mRNA was maintained at 4:1. When AUG(U)(n) was hybridized with poly(A), it could not direct polyphenylalanine synthesis with or without eIF-3 and was a potent inhibitor of the translation of globin mRNA in the presence of eIF-3. When poly(A) containing 10% U was hybridized with AUG(U)(n) and added to the cell-free system, addition of eIF-3 promoted polyphenylalanine synthesis to about 80% of control. Moreover, eIF-3 was seen to shift significantly the melting temperature of globin and synthetic double-stranded RNA. These observations suggest that extraction of ribosomes with 0.5 M KCl may release a ribosomal protein that fractionates with eIF-3.

Furthermore, serum concentrations of NGF did not change after submandibular gland removal or after administration of several autonomic agonists. These results indicate that the submandibular glands are not endocrine organs with respect to NGF. On the other hand, extremely high concentrations of the factor are normally secreted in mouse saliva at levels that reflect the sex differences in the amount of NGF present in the glands.

A good agreement was observed between the stimulation of growth hormone synthesis and the stimulation of cytoplasmic levels of pregrowth hormone mRNA, assayed by translation in wheat germ extracts. Electrophoresis on formamide-acrylamide gels of oligo(dT)-treated membrane fraction RNA revealed a band that was induced by dexamethasone to about the same extent as was translatable pregrowth hormone mRNA. Elution of the band and translation in wheat germ extracts showed directly that it contained pregrowth hormone mRNA. These results suggest that the dexamethasone induction of growth hormone synthesis in GH3 cells arises from an accumulation of pregrowth hormone mRNA in the cytoplasm of the cells.

Insulin, dexamethasone, and fibroblast growth factor act synergistically to inhibit protein degradation and to stimulate thymidine incorporation to about the same extent as serum. When the medium content in serum or fibroblast growth factor is varied over a wide range, there is a close, inverse correlation between the rate of protein degradation and the extent of thymidine incorporation. When serum is added to cells that have been deprived of serum, the inhibition of protein degradation is immediate whereas the enhanced rate of protein degradation in serum-free medium is attained within 1 hr after serum removal. A 30-min exposure to serum followed by incubation in serum-free medium was as effective as continuous exposure to serum in stimulating thymidine incorporation after 8-24 hr.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267935"}

Major translation products of bovine pituitary RNA in a wheat germ cell-free system were identified as larger forms (prehormones) of growth hormone and prolactin containing amino-terminal extensions of 26 or 27 and 30 amino acid residues, respectively. However, translation of bovine pituitary RNA in the wheat germ cell-free system in the presence of microsomal membranes prepared from canine pancreas or bovine pituitary yielded products that were of the same size as authentic growth hormone and prolactin; by partial amino-terminal sequence analysis they were shown to contain the correct unique amino-terminal sequence of prolactin and the two correct amino termini of authentic growth hormone; moreover, they were found to be segregated within the microsomal vesicles in that they were largely inaccessible to degradation by proteolytic enzymes. When microsomal membranes were present after rather than during translation, prehormones were neither cleaved nor segregated. These results strongly suggest that the synthesis and segregation of the authentic hormone observed in the presence of membranes proceeds via a nascent prehormone rather than a completed prehormone.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267936"}

No radioimmunologically detectable casein was present in these glands. Subsequent cultivation for another 6 days in a \"lactogenic\" medium with the hormones insulin + prolactin + cortisol produced abundant milk-like secretory material in the alveolar lumen.

However, the glands sequentially cultivated in the \"growth-promoting\" and the \"lactogenic\" media showed a high level of casein mRNA activity in the heterologous cell-free protein synthesis system. Sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic characteristics of the immunoprecipitable (by antibody to mouse milk casein) polypeptides directed by the mammary RNA induced in organ culture medium containing the lactogenic hormones were similar to the characteristics of the polypeptides directed by mammary polysomes of lactating mice.

The genes that were activated are normally expressed in oocytes but not in cultured cells. Conversely, genes that are normally expressed in cultured cells but not in oocytes became inactive when cultured cell nuclei were injected into oocytes. These changes in gene activity were detected by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of proteins synthesized by oocytes injected with nuclei. Controls, which included the use of alpha-amanitin, showed that these changes in protein synthesis are dependent on gene transcription.

Cultured epithelial cells from human skin generally had 3- to 30-fold more hydrocarbon-metabolizing activity than fibroblasts from skin of the same donor. This activity was constant for up to 55 days in primary culture but was lost rapidly upon physical subdivision of the cultures. Treatment of primary mixed fibroblasts and epithelial cell cultures with methylcholanthrene, but not phenanthrene, led to development of actively growing fibroblastic cultures with many heteroploid cells. Unique marker chromosomes, stable over a number of cell population doublings, were identified in several of the heteroploid cell strains. Pure cultures of fibroblasts from the same donors did not undergo heteroploid conversion in response to methylcholanthrene. Spontaneously occurring heteroploidy in logarithmic phase human fibroblasts is a rare event; thus, heteroploid conversion may be a useful marker for chemical transformation of human cells. Because methylcholanthrene seems to have little transforming effect on human skin fibroblasts, human skin epithelial cells, because of their hydrocarbon-metabolizing activity, may serve to convert methylcholanthrene from a distal to an ultimate carcinogenic form.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267938"}

Cellular accumulation of globin RNA may reflect transcriptional activation of the globin genes and/or posttranscriptional stabilization of globin RNA during differentiation. To evaluate possible transcriptional controls directly; globin RNA synthesis by isolated erythroleukemic cell nuclei was studied. Conditions were established for optimal nuclear RNA synthesis in vitro in the presence of a mercurinucleotide (Hg-CTP). Mercurated RNA synthesized in vitro was purified free of endogenous RNA by affinity chromatography on sulfhydryl-Sepharose, and analyzed for the presence of newly synthesized globin RNA sequences by molecular hybridization to globin complementary [32P]DNA. The results demonstrate markedly increased synthesis of globin RNA by nuclei isolated from dimethyl sulfoxide-treated cells, even within 5 min of nuclear transcription in vitro.

Density gradient fractionation of the cytosolic fraction isolated from L cell cultures that had been incubated with low concentrations of 25-hydroxy[26,27-(3)H]cholesterol or [1,2-(3)H]cholesterol provided evidence for the existence of at least two different sterol-binding proteins. Bound cholesterol sedimented in a sucrose density gradient as two or more broad bands with coefficients of approximately 9 S and 21 S. Two relatively narrow bands of bound 25-hydroxycholesterol had sedimentation coefficients of 5 S and 8 S. Preincubation of the cells with a relatively high concentration of unlabeled 25-hydroxycholesterol altered the banding pattern of the 25-hydroxy[(3)H]cholesterol taken up during a subsequent incubation period by decreasing the size of the major (8S) band. Under these conditions, cholesterol did not affect the banding pattern of 25-hydroxy[(3)H]cholesterol. The density gradient banding pattern of bound [(3)H]cholesterol was only slightly affected by preincubating the cells with unlabeled cholesterol or 25-hydroxycholesterol. Both sterols appeared to be bound to proteins because the bound sterols were eliminated from cytosol that had been heated at 100 degrees , and their sedimentation coefficients were altered by proteolysis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267942"}

On the other hand, the number of rare alleles in a sample is much less affected by selection. Under genic selection, heterozygosity may decrease with increasing population size.

Genetic complementation and analysis of phage-specific protein synthesis show that, under restrictive conditions, nonsense mutants in gene A do not block the synthesis and activity of the B protein and nonsense mutants in gene B do not affect the gene A function. The map position of the COOH-terminal end of gene A was determined using an amber mutant that synthesizes slightly shortened A and A proteins. It is concluded from these experiments that gene A overlaps gene B completely (or almost completely) and that the overlap region can be translated in two ways with different reading frames: one frame for the synthesis of the A and A proteins and another for the synthesis of the B protein.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267943"}

Generations are discrete and nonoverlapping. Asymptotically, the rate of convergence is approximately (I-u)2t[I-(2NT)-1]t, where u, NT, and t denote the mutation rate, total population size, and time in generations, respectively; the transient part of the probability that two homologous genes are the same allele is approximately independent of their spatial separation.

Reduced antibody permitted to reoxidize in air no longer behaved as a direct agglutinin; reversion to an incomplete antibody did not occur when reoxidation was prevented by S-alkylation.

In order to quantitate lymphocyte proliferative responses, we explored the role of cell death in the kinetics of phytohemagglutinin-stimulated cultures. Unless the disintegration time (tDIS) of nonviable lymphocytes in culture is known, the rate of cell death cannot be calculated. To obtain tDIS, we determined the time interval between total and viable cell population decay after various killing events. Two subpopulations of lymphocytes were observed, the major (80%) with a mean (+/-SEM) tDIS of 16+/-2 hr and the minor (20%) with a tDIS of 45+/-7 hr. Kinetic balance sheets were constructed predicting total culture DNA content (cells plus medium), as calculated both from proliferation rates and from observed death and disintegration rates. In an experiment characterized by extensive cell death, the two tallies were well-matched when the above data were utilized. The large discrepancy between predicted and observed DNA contents of the medium indicates that the DNA of disintegrated lymphocytes is extensively degraded. We conclude that cell death explains proliferation deficits in stimulated lymphocyte cultures.

We have investigated the effect of size of a single neutral ring substituent on the induction of hemolytic anemia and the formation of a ferrihemochrome by substituted phenylhydrazines. The severity of induced anemia decreased with increase in size of a halogen atom or an alkyl group ortho to the hydrazino group, little anemia resulting from 2-iodophenylhydrazine and no anemia from 2-tert-butylphenylhydrazine. The size of a halogen atom or an alkyl group at the meta or para position had relatively little effect on the severity of induced anemia. The ability of an arylhydrazine to induce hemolytic anemia paralleled its ability to produce a ferrihemochrome with an exogenous ligand, probably the corresponding aryldiazene. In general, rapid and complete formation of ferrihemochrome occurred with arylhydrazines that induced severe anemia. The degree of hemolysis induced by an arylhydrazine was not related to its rate of autooxidation, i.e., the rate at which oxidants are formed by the reduction of oxygen. We propose a mechanism of arylhydrazine-induced oxidative denaturation based on the simultaneous formation of hydroxyl radical and aryldiazene ferrihemochrome in a reaction of oxyhemoglobin with arylhydrazine. We suggest that after oxidation of the porphyrin ring is initiated by a hydroxyl radical, oxidative cleavage of the ring is facilitated by the presence of a large ligand in the heme crevice. Thus, aryldiazene ferrihemochrome may contribute to instability in a hemoglobin molecule, whereas globin ferrihemochrome results from instability.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/267949"}

Once HBsAg(+), males were more likely to remain HBsAg(+) indefinitely, whereas females were more likely to convert to HBsAg(-) and develop anti-HBs. This was not due to a sex difference in exposure to hepatitis B virus because only patients who became infected while undergoing treatment were included in the analysis.

Both inhibitory and excitatory responses were blocked by the narcotic antagonist naloxone. Occurrence of responsive cells encountered in a particular region was loosely correlated with density of stereospecific opiate binding sites as reported by others.

Measurements of antifreeze concentrations in ice and scanning electron micrographs of freeze-dried antifreeze solutions indicate that the antifreezes are incorporated in ice during freezing. The antifreezes also have a pronounced effect on the crystal habit of ice grown in their presence. Each of four antifreezes investigated caused ice to grow in long needles whose axes were parallel to the ice c axis. Together these results indicate the antifreezes adsorb to ice surfaces and inhibit their growth. A model in which adsorbed antifreezes raise the curvature of growth steps on the ice surface is proposed to account for the observed depression of the temperature at which freezing occurs and agrees well with experimental observations.

The effect of an intrauterine progesterone-releasing device on the DNA-content in human endometrial cells has been studied by means of a microfluorometric method. Following six of seven months' use of the progesterone-releasing device a significant decrease in the mean DNA-content per cell nucleus was found in the epithelial cells indicating a suppression of the proliferative activity of the endometrium. The mean DNA-values of the endometrial cells remained at a low level throughout the cycles in spite of circulating levels of steroids indicating a normal ovarian function. It is suggested that the progesterone released in utero interferes with the DNA-synthesis of the epithelial cells, which may result in a disturbed metabolic function of the endometrium at the time of implantation. Several methods of intrauterine administration of various progestins have been developed.  A low pregnancy rate has been achieved after 12 months of use and the cyclic ovarian function has been maintained.  Removal for pain and bleeding has been the same as with the copper T device.  A suppression of endometrial growth has been reported and an intense inflammatory reaction has been observed.  In this study an intrauterine medicated device containing 38 mg of progesterone which was released at a rate of 65 mcg/day for 1 year was used.  Subjects were 9 women, aged 25-30 years, of proven fertility.  Endometrial material was obtained on Cycle Days 7-11 and 21-25 in 2 consecutive cycles before insertion of the devices and on the same cycle days in the 2nd-3rd and 6th-7th cycles with the devices in place.  6 of the 9 subjects were fitted with the progesterone device and 3 with a plain T device.  Endometrial cell smears were subjected to a fluorometric method for quantitative estimation of DNA per cell nucleus.  Only epithelial cells were analyzed.  Values were expressed in units of the BAO-fluorescence of 50 cell nuclei per sample.  The variation between observation periods was due to a significant decrease in the mean BAO-DNA content per cell nucleus (p less than .01).  At 1st, histological examination was normal.  However, after 6-7 cycles with the progesterone-releasing IUD in place, an atrophy was observed in the glandular epithelium.  Photographic reproductions illustrate the histology observed.  Circulating levels of steroids were unchanged indicating normal ovarian function.  It is suggested that the progesterone released in utero interfered with the DNA sythesis of the endometrial cells and resulted in a disturbed metabolism preventing implantation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268127"}

II. General organization of the transitional region in S1 dorsal rootlets. The aproximal segment of feline S1 dorsal rootlets were investigated light and electronmicroscopically. A one shaped protrusion of CNS tissue was found to extend distally into each rootlet for a distance of 100-1000 micrometer. That free segment of a rootlet which when cross sectioned revealed both CNS and PNS constituents was denoted the transitional region (TR). The TR was subdivided into an axial CNS compartment and a surrounding PNS compartment. The CNS compartment consisted of a core zone that showed the organisation of a CNS fiber tract, and of an outer astrocytic mantle zone which corresponded to the external glial limiting membrane of the brain and the spinal cord. The outer aspect of the mantle zone constituted the PNS-CNS borderline. The mantle zone was rich in astrocytes and projected a large number of thin processes--the glial fringe--distally into the endoneural space of the PNS compartment. There were large fenestration defects in the basement membrane that demarcated the endoneural space from the glial space. The mantle zone contained many large myelinoid bodies and some encapsulated small dark unclassified cells. Similar cells, some covered by a basement membrane, were at hand in the adjacent endoneural space.

Two curvature measures (as well as the traditional P2A) have then been applied to a set of shapes extracted from leukocyte nuclei in order to evaluate their effectiveness as numeric descriptors of shape complexity. Bending energy, (BEN), was shown to be, on the average, the most sensitive indicator of complex shape, normalized mean absolute curvature (NMAC) was next, and P2A was last. Bending energy could also have important biolgical significance due to its possible relation to developmental processes. Further studies on bending energy will be necessary in order to substantiate this possibility. Many of the discrepancies between P2A, NMAC, BEN, and the study subjects are explainable by the lack of \"syntactic\", or form, information used by the computer features. If an observer really classifies an object by decomposing it into simpler pieces, then a more sophisticated shape analysis procedure must be used.

The earlier demonstrated rearrangement of C-fibres during their passage along the transitional region (TR) was confirmed by the observation of extensive fibre divergence. The transitional region Schwann cells was calculated to be 10-20 times as high in the TR as in the more distal parts of the rootlets. Analysis of consecutive ultra-thin sections showed that PNS unmyelinated axons 0.8 micrometer or more acquired a myelin sheath as they entered the CNS. Fibres 0.6-0.8 micrometer in diameter appeared to be segmentally myelinated in the CNS. Fibres less than 0.6 micrometer remained unmyelinated at their CNS entrance.

Myelinated fibres in S1 dorsal rootlets. Myelinated nerve fibres were analysed at their passage of the PNS-CNS borderline in the transitional region (TR) of feline S1 dorsal rootlets by means of light and electron microscopy. At the borderline, PNS internodal length was 30% shorter than noted further distally in the root. Analysis of variance based on the numerical estimation of various fibre parameters did not support the current idea that a myelinated nerve fibre decreases in diameter as it passes from the PNS into the CNS. There was a rough rectilinear correlation between axon size and number of myelin lamellae in small and medium sized fibres. In large fibres the number of myelin lamellae was highly variable and could not be predicated from axon size. The nodes of Ranvier found at the borderline showed an organization that could be described as a compound node where the PNS-CNS demarcation line runs across the nodal axon segment in the midst of the node gap. Branching at the borderline nodes was a very rare phenomenon. The length of the nodal axon segment, the nodal axon membrane area and the amount of paranodal mitochondria were similar to earlier presented data of feline ventral root fibres. The hypothesis that the elements of the paranodal apparatus of PNS fibres compensates for the lack in the PNS of nodally connected astrocytes is presented and discussed. A small number of the fibres lacked a borderline node. In these cases the CNS myelin sheath projected uninterrupted for hundreds of micrometer into the PNS compartment where it was enclosed by a Schwann cell and PNS myelin. This rare arrangement was referred to as a transitional internode.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268136"}

The effects of verapamil on epicardial ST segment elevation, regional myocardial metabolism and collateral blood flow were studied in open-chest anesthetized dogs following left anterior descending coronary artery occlusion. Collateral blood flow was measured by radioactive microspheres (15 +/- 5 micron diameter) and regional metabolism was studied by measuring lactate concentration in venous blood draining the infarcting myocardium. Verapamil (0-2 mg/kg intravenously) produced a significant reduction (50-60%) in the epicardial ST elevation when it was given before coronary occlusion; when administered 15 minutes after coronary occlusion and infusion continued for two hours, it minimized (30-40%) ST segment elevation, and prevented the fall in cardiac index and rise in systemic resistance found in the untreated animals in which the ST segment remained persistently elevated. Changes in epicardial ST segment occurred without alterations in the QRS duration. Verapamil had no effect on either the total collateral blood flow or the relative distribution of flow to the endocardial and epicardial halves of the ischemic ventricular myocardium. No significant differences were found between the levels of lactate in blood sampled from small epicardial veins at the center of the infarct when the control animals were compared with those treated with verapamil.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268165"}

Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia may result from re-entrance in the AV node, the normal A-V pathway with an accessory AV connection, in the sino-atrial node, in the atria, or else reflect ectopic impulse formation in a spontaneously automatic supraventricular focus. Electrocardiographic criteria which are helpful in differentiating these mechanisms involve an analysis of cycle length, changes in cycle length with intermittent bundle branch block, P wave morphology and the relationship of P wave to QRS complex, P-R interval, the presence of A-V block during tachycardia and the influence of autonomic tone on the tachycardia. Electrophysiologic studies further elucidate mechanism by demonstrating the mode of induction and termination of the tachycardia, the characteristics of antegrade and retrograde A-V conduction curves and refractory periods, atrial activation sequence of echo beats and the influence of premature beats introduced during tachycardia. These features are summarised in Table 1. Therapy can be accurately planned according to the results of experimental administration of antiarrhythmic agents and of pacing sequences upon induction and termination of tachycardia in the catheterisation laboratory.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268166"}

In order to ascertain possible endogenous sources of lipids, the output of cholesterol, phospholipid and triglyceride from the bile and small intestine was studied in rats in relationship to body weight. The output of lipid in mesenteric lymph showed an almost two-fold increase in the heaviest rats. Small intestinal concentrations of phospholipid and unesterified cholesterol rose significantly with increase of body weight. Output of cholesterol and phospholipid in bile was found to be related to body weight and total bile salt output. The increased lipid content of mesenteric lymph may reflect lipid synthesis in the small intestine, as well as increased absorption from biliary sources, and contribute to cholesterol accumulation in obese rats. Although these are major differences between human and rat cholesterol metabolism, the intestine is a major source of endogenous cholesterol in both species, and could be part of the source of the additional cholesterol load in obese humans.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268172"}

Four children with lymphoproliferative malignant disease, two with acute lymphocytic leukemia in remission and two with Hodgkin's disease, were treated with a Thymic Hormone, THF, for disseminated varicella infecition. It is suggested that THF increased significantly the number of peripheral blood lymphocytes and T-rosette forming lymphocytes in 3 out of 4 children, who developed the varicella at the time of impaired cellular immunity. On the other hand, in the fourth child, with Hodgkin's disease, who had a normal number of T-rosettes, a decreased absolute number of lymphocytes as well as T-rosettes was observed over a course of 14 days THF treatment, although the percent of T-cells has not changed significantly. All of the four children recovered, including the child who was at high risk, with a marked lymphopenia, severe bilateral pneumonitis, hepatitis secondary infected skin lesions and psudomonas sepsis. It is indicated that THF therapy may restore the depressed cellular immunity in immunosuppressed children with malignant disease, and has its value as a supportive immunotherapy in life-threatening disseminated varicella infection.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268220"}

Arabinosylcytosine (ara-C) was administered by prolonged intravenous infusion with a portable liquid infusion system (LIS) to patients with acute myelogenous leukemia. With the use of tritiated ara-C and this portable system, pharmacologic studies were performed in 8 patients. Most of the plasma radioactivity is in the deaminated product, arabinosyluracil (ara-U). After continuous intravenous infusion, a constant ara-C level is achieved slowly in the plasma. Unless a loading (priming) dose is administered immediately before beginning the infusion, a steady-state ara-C level cannot be achieved until 8 to 24 hr after the infusion. The infusion system has two mechanisms--one for giving a loading dose (3 ml/min) and the other for regular infusion at a rate of 0.5 to 2.0 ml/hr. If a loading dose is given before continuous infusion, a steady-state are-C level is achieved within an hour. The plasma ara-C disappearance curves are biphasic with a terminal half-life of 104 min, which is the same as that of a single injection. The cumulative urinary excretion after approximately 23 hr of infusion varied from 14% to 35% in different patients; more than 90% is ara-U and the remainder is ara-C. Our results have demonstrated that LIS can be used conveniently to sustain a constant plasma level of ara-C.

Availability of this system does away with some high start-up costs. Three forms of input data, new case information, examination findings and operative procedure information, are regularly collected on data sheets and specially designed Port-a-punch IBM cards. Easily interpreted output tables are generated monthly on such variables as completed cases according to treatment series and clinician, number of various procedures performed by clinicians, etc. Productivity is measured, in part, by application of monetary constants to procedure data. This paper describes the computer programs used, the cost of setting up and operating the system (which is within the budgetary constraints of most small, publicly funded programs) and the benefits that can be derived from the use of such a system. The system provides prompt feedback of relevant administrative data, thus allowing for relatively quick response to problems. Use of the system reduces clerical needs to a minimum and the program can easily be implemented on any except the very smallest digital computer.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268259"}

A technique planned for marketing by mid-1978 can increase the probability of bearing a son to as much as 0.90. However, couples who wish to improve their chances of bearing a daughter have no such opportunity. The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First, a decision-making model is provided which describes how couples should choose among alternative sex-selection methods so as to maximize the probability of bearing their desired number of sons and daughters. Second, the effect of the widespread use of sex-selection techniques on the population sex ratio is explored.

In support of Fisher's model it is argued that intense selection for the wild type phenotype is more common in inbreeders than outbreeders.

In this part of the study the chewing of 10 pieces of sorbitol flavoured gum during a time period of 3 h did not significantly reduce the plaque scores, while the sucrose flavoured gum, correspondingly used, again resulted in a statistically significant increase in the amount of bacterial deposits.

There was an increased serum [(125)I]Clq-binding activity in 40% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia, 23% with acute lymphatic leukemia, 46% in blastic crisis of chronic myeloid leukemia, 12% with chronic lymphatic leukemia, and 13% with chronic myeloid leukemia. In 48 patients, serum was also tested for soluble immune complexes by the Raji cell radioassay; the correlation between results of the two tests was significant. The Clq-binding material had properties identical with those of immune complexes. It sedimented as 14-28s material on sucrose density gradient. It contained IgG which could be dissociated at acid pH. Its Clq-binding properties could be removed after passage through anti-IgG immuno-absorbant or after a mild reduction-alkylation treatment, but were not sensitive to deoxyribonuclease treatment.

The purpose of this study was to determine how accurately periodontal probes measure connective tissue attachment levels in beagle dogs with (1) clinically healthy gingivae, (2) experimental gingivitis, and (3) periodontitis. In the healthy and experimental gingivitis specimens the probes were inserted with a standardized force of 25 ponds. In periodontitis specimens the probes were inserted with a gentle, but nonstandardized force. After insertion, 120 plastic periodontal probes (40 in each group) were held in place by fusing them to the teeth. Blocks of periodontal tissue with the probes in situ were subsequently processed and serially sectioned. Histometric measurements were made from the sections in order to compare the level of connective tissue attachment to the level of probe penetration. In healthy specimens the probes consistently failed to reach the apical termination of the junctional epithelium (x = -0.39 mm). In the experimental gingivitis group most probes came closer to the apical termination of the junctional epithelium, but on the average still fell short by x = -0.10 mm. In periodontitis specimens the probes consistently went past the most apical cells of the junctional epithelium (x = +0.24 mm). A significant relationship between the degree of inflammation and level of probe penetration was found. No relationship was observed between histological and clinical sulcus depths. It is concluded that in beagle dogs (1) periodontal probes do not precisely measure connective tissue attachment levels, (2) inflammation has a significant influence on the degree of probe penetration, and (3) histological and clinical sulcus depths differ significantly.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268333"}

A tooth was considered crowded if it was displaced by 2 mm and/or rotated 15 degrees or more from the normal position in the arch. The material consisted of 50 dental students aged 21 to 32 years. An initial examination comprised assessment of Plaque Index, Gingival Index and pocket depths. After this examination the subjects refrained from using interdental cleaning aids but continued with their normal toothbrushing for 40 days. After re-examination they were instructed in the effective use of dental floss. A final examination was carried out after 140 days. At the start of the trial no difference was found in regard to the Plaque Index between crowded and non-crowded teeth. The Gingival Index for growded front teeth, but not for crowded premolars, was somewhat higher than for the corresponding controls. The cessation of interdental cleaning resulted in a similar increase in plaque accumulation and gingival inflammation in both non-crowded and crowded teeth. The use of dental floss for approximal tooth cleaning resulted in a similar decrease in the Plaque- and Gingival Indices for both types of teeth. The results demonstrate that in a group of young adults, crowding of teeth (1) did not favour plaque accumulation on approximal tooth surfaces and (2) influenced the degree of gingival inflammation only to a minor extent.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268334"}

The mechanism of the early stage of metastasis formation by sticky blood-born cancer cells is discussed. Abnormal platelet aggregation to circulating and lodged cancer cells, as well as alterations of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis play an important role. The reducing effect of several platelet aggregation inhibitors on cancer cell stickiness and tumor embolism mortality has been investigated in rats after intravenous transplantation of 1 X 10(6) Walker-256 carcinosarcoma cells. The tested substances diminished platelet aggregation to circulating cancer cells, leading to a dose-dependent inhibition of cancer cell lodgment to the endothelium. Furthermore, some of the substances prevented lethal pulmonary tumor cell embolism which was observed in 60% of the controls. These results are interpreted by assuming an inhibition of disseminated intravascular coagulation which occured after intravenous transplantation of Walker-256 carcinosarcoma. On this basis a clinical long-term study for metastasis prophylaxis was started more than 4 years ago with one of the tested substances, the dipyridamole derivative RA 233, in 40 patients with sarcoma or malignant lymphoma of the head and neck region.

Nine had previously failed on combination chemotherapy. No objective responses were observed. Leukopenia or thrombocytopenia were found in 4 patients with nadirs of 2,000 WBC and 60,000 platelets. The lack of response may be a function of the inability of lung carcinoma to concentrate the drug as shown with radioactive labeled Prednimustine. The malignant cells may lose their glucocorticoid binding capacity normally present in the lung. Determination of glucocorticoid binding capacity or Prednimustine uptake might predict the effectiveness of Prednimustine in the treatment of tumor.

No untoward or unexpected side effects were encountered. These observations, and our previous demonstration that both agents reduce enzyme efflux from skeletal muscle, give promise that a safe combination therapy may be found to approximately normalize the serum in DMD.

Most assessments of the quality of restorations are entirely subjective and involve standard clinical diagnostic equipment. However in recent years there has been an increasing demand for more accurate and reliable methods. Attempts to achieve these have been directed mainly towards the standardization of clinical judgements by the provision of various systems of guidelines of criteria upon which to base them. While these have improved the usefulness of the assessments, they have remained largely subjective. Furthermore, the efficacy of using the particular criteria selected are themselves open to questioning. By the use of more complex methods of examination, often in the field of restorative materials research, assessments have been made of various features of restorations and a body of knowledge concerning factors that might influence or manifest their quality has been build up. However the true significance of much of this knowledge in terms of the clinical behaviour, and thus the finite quality of restorations in service, has yet to be established, for many of the studies have been undertaken in isolation from the dynamic conditions of function in the mouth. Notably, however, a few objective clinical studies have been carried out and objective measurements of some factors affecting the quality of restorations have been reported.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268417"}

Electrical activity in the masseter muscles and tooth contact vibrations were recorded simultaneously from subjects tapping their teeth slowly into maximal intercuspidation and again with maximal frequency. High speed cinephotography was also used with four of the ten subjects. Three main parts could be distinguished on the obtained graphical representation of the tooth tapping movement: tooth contact phase (TCP), opening phase (OP) and closing phase (CP). Tapping frequency was increased by decreasing the jaw opening degree and the durations of TCP, OP and CP. The jaw velocity immediately before tooth contact, which may be of significance for the reflex response, was however not increased. The average jaw speed was nevertheless increased from 10 to 15 cm/s since the turning from OP to CP was more abrupt in high than in low frequency tapping. The duration of electrical activity after tooth contact was significantly shorter at tapping with high than with low frequency. The teeth maintained contact without detectable rebound between each open-close cycle. The OP started about 100 ms after the cessation of electrical activity both at low and high tapping frequency. The time between end of electrical activity and the start of a new OP was supposed to be dependent upon the relaxation time of the masseter muscles.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268419"}

Although the 24-month findings of the present study indicate some degree of success in reducing plaque and gingivitis and a marginal effect in reducing the incidence of dental caries among children who engaged in daily, supervised plaque-removal in school, obvious drawbacks limit the value of this regimen.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268433"}

This paper is part of a continuing study of the cost of children's dental care in a publicly funded model program. The Program--the Chattanooga Project--was designed to provide information and experience necessary for the development of similar programs elsewhere in the United States. From 1970 to 1975 comprehensive dental care was provided, at no charge, to an average of 5,500 indigent children per year. Children were treated in private practices (39%), public fixed clinics (20%), and public mobile clinics (41%). Costs were defined as public expenditures for purchasing care from private practitioners or producing care in public practices. As a framework for the analysis, program activities and their respective costs were divided into direct and indirect components. The former relate to the provision of care and the latter to noncare-oriented activities. Direct (indirect) costs per patient were $46.56 ($16.31) in private practices, $40.17 ($16.11) in fixed clinics, and $35.49 ($13.41) in mobile clinics. These results substantiate previous findings from a shorter period. A priori reasons for differences among the three modes in terms of patients' health status or the type of care provided have been specified and are currently under investigation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268435"}
{"pmid": "268436", "title": "The cost of providing restorative dentistry in an alternative delivery mode.", "content": "The cost of providing restorative dentistry in an alternative delivery mode. This study is based on the Forsyth Dental School experiment, where it was shown that dental hygienists can be trained to perform restorative dental functions which are now the exclusive responsibility of dentists. The focus of the Forsyth study was to determine the length of training time required and to measure the qualitative and quantitative aspects of services carried out by the hygienists. As a follow-up to that study, this paper is concerned with the economic aspects of the personnel substitution suggested by the Forsyth project. The basic hypothesis of the study is that there would be a considerable gain from this change, and that this gain can be measured by estimating the costs of operation in the new setting anc comparing them to costs in the conventional setting. Combining estimated clinic costs and productivity data provides a measure of the per-surface supply price for an amalgam restoration. This estimate is 44 percent lower than usual fees and 29 percent lower than current welfare fees. The magnitude of this difference implies that the introduction of Forsyth clinics would lead to considerable economics in the elivery of these services.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268436"}

The 22 cases who received an intraamniotic prostaglandin and calcium infusion with a Laminaria tent had no failures.  The prostaglandin group demonstrated a shorter infusion-abortion time (average, 17 hours).  When calcium was added to prostaglandin, no potentiating effect was noted.

In the 226Ra series 74 cases and in the 224Ra series 89 cases of osteosarcomas were evaluated by means of planimetric measurements of roentgenographic images, including the calcified structures. Even though it is not possible to differentiate the series precisely, still some differences between tumors under study could be found. In comparison with 226Ra series, the sarcomas induced by 224Ra are in average rather larger, calcified stuctures appear not to be fully developed and differentiated, he anatomical distribution is different from that characteristic to the 226Ra induced tumors, the mean life span is shorter.

After the animals had been on their respective diets for 8 weeks, a local irritant in the form of a stainless steel wire was placed around the maxillary left second molar of each animal. The wire served both as a mechanical irritant and as a collector of plaque and debris. Six weeks after the wire was placed, the animals were killed and the periodontium was examined histologically. Migration of the epithelial attachment, alveolar bone level, and numbers of inflammatory round cells were then evaluated on both sides of the maxilla. Multivariate analysis of variance was used to determine significant difference in the parameters. The results of this experiment indicate that a deficiency of vitamin E does not cause increased destruction of the periodontium in the presence of periodontitis.

Starting with the lowest energy binding structures of (GlcNAc)(4) as determined in a previous publication, we added a fifth GlcNAc residue to this tetramer in three different conformations, corresponding to the left-handed and right-handed helical structures and an intermediate structure, and the energy of each complex was minimized. The most stable binding conformation of the fifth residue of the pentamer was closest to the left-handed helical one. During energy minimization, the fourth residue of the pentamer moved from its initial position near the surface of the active site farther into the active site cleft at binding site D. Binding structures of (GlcNAc)(6) were then examined by addition of a residue to the lowest energy structure of (GlcNAc)(5), and it was found that the sixth residue of the hexamer binds in a conformation again close to the left-handed helical one. Stable binding regions of the rigid active site for the fifth and sixth residues were found to be near arginyl 45 and asparaginyl 46, on the opposite side of the active site cleft from arginyl 114. When the calculated structure of the lysozyme-(GlcNAc)(4) complex (used here as the starting structure for addition of the fifth and sixth residues) is compared with recent experimental data, it is found that the calculated structure is a reasonable one.

The large upfield shifts (0.5 to 0.85 ppm) observed at all the proflavine ring nonexchangeable protons on complex formation are consistent with intercalation of the mutagen between base pairs of the tetranucleotide duplex. We have proposed an approximate overlap geometry between the proflavine ring and nearest neighbor base pairs at the intercalation site from a comparison between experimental shifts and those calculated for various stacking orientations.

The larger form is being continuously degraded to yield the smaller one, probably as a result of a slow enzymatic process. Virtually identical results were obtained with crude submandibular gland extracts. The larger NGF is neither the well-known 7S NGF nor 2.5S NGF.

Tyrosylation followed by acetylation modifies only the 3' terminus. Nevertheless, acetylated tyrosyl-BMV RNA was less than one-fourth as infectious as a control sample subjected to procedures that differed only by the presence of tyrosinol (which prevents aminoacylation and subsequent acetylation). For each modified form of viral RNA, care was taken to test the infectivity of appropriate control samples.

The determination of the loading of avidin-Sepharose columns with biotinylinsulin was greatly facilitated by the attached biotin which provided a marker whose concentration could be assessed accurately by titration with avidin. Biotinylinsulin attached to avidin-Sepharose beads retained the ability to stimulate rat epididymal adipocytes. The activity of several samples of these beads was about 15% that of free biotinylinsulin, based on the amount of biotinylinsulin anchored to the support. The advantages of biotinylated hormones for the targeted attachment of hormones to solid supports are discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268619"}

Because each parameter can be varied independently, or several can be varied simultaneously, by single or multiple allosteric interactions of ligands with one or more of the cascade enzymes, interconvertible enzymes are exquisitely designed for the rigorous control of key metabolic steps. Compared with other reglatory enzymes, they can respond to a greater number of allosteric stimuli, they exhibit greater flexibility in overall control patterns, and they can generate a greatly amplified response to primary allosteric interactions of effectors with the converter enzymes.

With the conditions described by H.

DNase II also discriminated between \"active\" and \"inactive\" chromatins; when a DNase II-solubilized \"active\" chromatin fraction was prepared, it too was enriched in H6 and HMG-T.

The results show that while a large degree of structural conservation is evident due to codon synonomy, there is, in general, little tendency for the code to be structurally conservative in the majority of the cases where codon single-base changes result in amino acid substitutions.

A method is described for estimating the phases of high resolution single-crystal diffraction data from proteins, by using as a starting point a set of low resolution phases (about 3 A) derived by multiple isomorphous replacement (or other) methods. The method consists in refining by least-squares the positions and thermal parameters of a set of dummy atoms placed in the initial low resolution electron density map, so as to minimize the discrepancy between the calculated scattering intensities and the scattering intensities observed in the high resolution data set. Phases calculated from these refined atomic positions are used to extend the resolution and to improve the quality of the electron density map. The success of the method depends on a new least-squares algorithm that has a radius of convergence of about 0.75 A. This large radius of convergence, together with the severe restrictions placed on the initial positions of the dummy atoms by the requirement that they lie within limited regions of the isomorphous electron density map, and the constraint imposed by the polymeric nature of a polypeptide chain account for the success of the method.

Surface-attached ligands were revealed by an indirect immunofluorescence method. Incubation of control cells with these ligands induced the patching of corresponding surface receptors and the clearing of these receptors from the surface zones located on the lamellar cytoplasm near cell edges actively protruding pseudopodia. Effects of three antitubulins (microtubule-destroying drugs: Colcemid, colchicine, and vinblastine) on the ligand-induced redistribution of receptors were investigated and compared with the previously described effects of these drugs on the distribution of active cell edges. Incubation of normal and transformed fibroblasts with these antitubulins led to the disappearance of nonactive cell edges; the whole cell perimeter became active. Correspondingly, the clearing pattern of the surface receptors of fibroblasts was altered by antitubulins: the cleared area in antitubulin-treated cells formed a circular band along the whole peripheral cell edge. In epithelial cultures, in contrast to fibroblastic ones, antitubulins changed neither the distribution of the active sites of the surface nor the distribution of the areas cleared of crosslinked receptors. Thus, the specific ability of the surface areas located near the active cell edges to become cleared of crosslinked receptors is characteristic not only for the cells with intact microtubules, but also for the cells with microtubules destroyed with antitubulins.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268637"}

Early G1 cells were fused with mid-G1 or late G1 cells and late G1 cells were fused with mid-G1 cells. The G1 traverse of mono-, bi-, and trinucleated cells was studied. The bi- and trinucleated cells of mid-G1 and late G1 parents traversed the G1 period significantly faster than did their mononucleated counterparts.

By using cloned cell lines derived from pith parenchyma of tobacco, we have obtained evidence that the habituation process is gradual rather than all-or-none and leads to progressively more autotrophic tissues. Cells in culture show reversible shifts among a range of habituated states but remain totipotent and can be induced to regain their requirement for a cell division factor. Thus, it appears that habituation involves epigenetic changes in a quantitative cellular phenotype.

The heterogenetic Forssman antigen is a glycosphingolipid, a ceramide pentasaccharide with the structure GalNAcalpha1-->3GalNAcbeta1-->3Galalpha1-->4Galbeta1-->4Glc-->ceramide. Forssman-positive animals are capable of synthesizing this compound in tissues or in erythrocytes, in contrast to the Forssman-negative species, including humans, which are incapable of adding the last carbohydrate in the sequence of the Forssman antigen, namely alphaGalNAc. The Forssman glycolipid and its precursor globoside were examined in twenty-one samples of surgically extirpated gastrointestinal mucosa and tumors derived therefrom. The results revealed that a few patients had chemically and immunologically detectable levels of the Forssman glycolipid as a normal component of their gastrointestinal mucosa (F(+) population); in contrast, the majority of patients did not contain this glycolipid in their normal mucosa (F(-) population). Whereas the F(-) population included blood groups A, B, and O, the F(+) population did not correspond to blood group A. The Forssman status in tumors taken from the F(+) or F(-) population showed the following striking features: (i) all tumors derived from F(-) mucosa possessed Forssman glycolipid, whereas (ii) none of the tumors originating in F(+) mucosa contained Forssman glycolipid. Globoside, the immediate precursor of Forssman antigen, was distributed equally among F(+) and F(-) mucosa and the tumors derived therefrom. Thus, the expression of Forssman antigen in gastrointestinal mucosa appears akin to that of an isoantigen. Furthermore, the Forssman antigen that appears in tumors of the F(-) population could represent a human tumor-associated antigen. In view of the strong crossreactivity of Forssman antigen with blood group A determinants, the appearance of Forssman antigen in human tumors could be related to the \"A-like antigen\" (or \"neo-A antigen\") of human tumors reported previously [Hakomori, S., Koscielak, J., Black, K.

After the administration of heparin at 5, 10, and 20 units/kg in rabbits, the thrombogenicity of each of these proteases decreased progressively. The heparin-induced inhibition of thrombosis decreased in the order, activated Factor IX > activated Factor X > thrombin at each heparin concentration. These differences were statistically significant. These in vivo data provide support for the following hypotheses originally developed from in vitro experiments: (i) activation of the blood coagulation system, which proceeds through a cascade mechanism, incorporates biochemical amplification; (ii) the inhibition of activated Factor IX by antithrombin III in the presence of heparin is an important reaction in the prevention of thrombosis; (iii) less heparin is required to inhibit thrombosis prior to thrombin generation than afterward; (iv) an increase in the reactivity of antithrombin III reflects a decreased tendency to thrombosis while a decrease in this reactivity reflects an increased tendency to thrombosis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268650"}

The vast majority of plaque progeny selected from the Schwarz strain induced IF, even though this virus was originally derived from the Edmonston strain. This property was retained even after serial plaque purification of the progeny. However, the Schwarz-derived CC strain consisted of a population generally unable to induce IF. Stocks grown from both Edmonston and CC plaques demonstrating the IF+ phenotype maintained this characteristic as a whole, but it was not a property that was inherited by all progeny in the stocks. Levels of IF induced were approximately the same for all strains, even though the proportion of inducing progeny varied markedly among them. These noninducing variants appeared to be normal, fully infectious measles virions.

Antibody against acetylcholine receptor induces an increase in the rate of degradation of acetylcholine receptors on a mouse cell line (BC(3)H-1) and cultured rat skeletal muscle. The increased rate of degradation results in a lowered density of acetylcholine receptors on muscle membrane and a lowered sensitivity to iontophoretically applied acetylcholine. The modulation of acetylcholine receptor is energy, temperature, and time dependent and may be related to antigenic modulation found in other systems. Acetylcholine noise analysis demonstrates that antibody against acetylcholine receptor reduces the channel mean conductance and mean open time slightly. It is concluded that antibody binds to the acetylcholine receptor, impairs its function, and induces receptor degradation. This results in a lowered density of acetylcholine receptor and a lowered sensitivity to acetylcholine. Patients with myasthenia gravis have antibodies to their acetylcholine receptor in their serum. Antigenic modulation of receptor in the muscle of patients with myasthenia gravis could contribute to the observed decrease in amplitudes of miniature endplate potentials and in muscle acetylcholine sensitivity, and the symptoms of muscular weakness.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268657"}

In activating K influx, Li(c) interacts with the pump like Na rather than like K-depleting the cells of orthophosphate inhibited activation of K influx by intracellular K (K/K exchange) but did not inhibit Li-activated K influx. (To show these interactions of Li(c) with the Na/K pump, p-chloromercuribenzenesulfonate or nystatin was used to allow replacement of intracellular Na and K with Li and choline.) From kinetic studies of the pump, it was shown that the apparent affinity of the intracellular aspect of the Na/K pump for Li was an order of magnitude less than that for Na. From simultaneous measurements of ouabain-sensitive net fluxes of Li and K in Na-free cells, it was shown that the pump-mediated K influx and Li efflux were coupled. The stoichiometry of the coupling ratio was close to 1:1 for Li:K, different from the coupling ratio of 3:2 for Na:K in the pump's normal mode of operation. It had been shown previously that the Na/K pump in human erythrocytes mediates active Li influx. Because it also mediates active Li efflux, the molecular mechanisms for distinguishing between Na and K must be qualitatively different at the internal and external aspects of the pump.

Riboflavin did not bind to either chlorhexidine-treated apatite or untreated apatite, whereas the other dyes showed a considerable affinity for chlorhexidine-treated apatite as compared with untreated apatite. Because the dyes with binding ability possess two or three acidic groups, and because riboflavin has none, it was suggested that the binding of the dyes is mediated by an interaction between the anionic groups of the dye molecules and the cationic groups of the chlorhexidine molecules.

The reaction was probably conditioned by the presence of debris and plaque within this area. Pulpally and immediately below the necrotic zone, an area of demineralization was found which on the microradiographs appeared as a radiolucent zone. The zone showed a mineral gradient with an increasing mineral content towards the pulp. In the zone of demineralization a positive reaction occurred for sphingomyelin decreasing in a pulpal direction with increasing mineral content. A weakly positive reaction for cholesterol- and/or triglyceride-esters was also detected but only in the most pulpal part of the zone of demineralization; the intensity of the staining reaction was comparable to that found in normal dentin.

{"pmid": "268745", "title": "Intraperitoneal drain in cholelithiasis operations.", "content": "Intraperitoneal drain in cholelithiasis operations. 571 patients were operated on for cholelithiasis, 70 acute cases and 501 chronic ones. On 142 cases of the latter type choledochus exploration was performed, while on the others only simple cholecystectomy was carried out. Intraperitoneal drain in the form of a latex tube was used on all the acute cases except 4, on all who underwent choledochus exploration except 3, and on 254 of the 359 chronic cases on whom simple cholecystectomy was performed. The analysi of the material shows that the indications for intraperitoneal drainage are not very convincing after cholecystectomy at a chronic stage, considering the amount of fluid drawn via the intraperitoneal drain and the complications that arose. After choledochus exploration, however, intraperitoneal drain serves its purpose in connection with the removal of the choledochus drain. Intraperitoneal drain should therefore be used when choledochus has been explored. In routine cases it should not be removed until the choledochus drain has been withdrawn.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268745"}

Twenty-six patients seeking advice for sterility were given courses of treatment with HMG-HCG. Ovarian maturation was followed by daily evaluation of plasma 17beta-oestradiol concentrations. HCG was administered as soon as 17beta-oestradiol levels reached 250 pg/ml. In a first group of 7 amenorrheic patients with lack of oestrogen activity, a pregnancy rate of 71.4% and an ovulation rate of 91.7% were achieved. In a second group of 5 amenorrheic patients showing evidence of oestrogen activity, a pregnancy rate of 80.0% and an ovulation rate of 100% were obtained. In a third group of 14 oligomenorrheic patients, the pregnancy rate attained 71.4% and the ovulation rate 96.9%. The overall pregnancy rate was 73.0%. With this procedure of monitoring HMG-HCG treatment by means of plasma 17beta-oestradiol levels, the multiple pregnancy rate reached only 11.7% and only one case of mild ovarian hyperstimulation was observed. Pre-ovulatory and pre-conceptional 17beta-oestradiol concentration were identical with those observed in spontaneous ovulatory cycles with or without conception.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268747"}

Overbeek's interest and contributions in the field of oral contraception a survey is given of present leads and developments in this area. It is concluded that contraceptive preparations known under names such as: once-a-month pill, morning-after pill and post-coitum pill, although desired, do not really exist at the moment. It is further expected that oral contraception based on the inhibition of ovulation will stay with us for many years to come. Better preparations, not exclusively containing oestrogen progestagen combinations but possibly including a non-hormonal pituitary inhibitor as well, might be developed. This will allow better control over the endometrium, and the unwanted effects of the presently used hormonal substances. It is likely that an implantation-inhibiting compound or an abortifacient which acts shortly after implantation will be found. With respect to oral contraception for males it is concluded that, although inhibition of spermatogenesis with drugs is possible, a satisfactory contraceptive treatment for men is not yet available.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268749"}

The inhibitory effect of chlorhexidine and other bis-biguanides on the formation of dental plaque is not fully understood. The present paper describes the effect of chlorhexidine and some selected detergents on the activity of dextransucrase (EC 2.4.1.5.), an enzyme involved in the formation of important components of dental plaque. All detergents examined exerted an inhibitory effect on dextransucrase activity, to some degree dependent on the presence of charged groups and their characters. The high concentrations of chlorhexidine necessary to inhibit dextransucrase activity seem to exclude the possibility that chlorhexidine exerts its plaque inhibiting effect by means of an effect on dextransucrase.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268918"}

The thresholds in discriminating the thickness differences interocclusally were measured with three different mouth openings on subjects having natural dentitions. Also the duration of the perceptive memory was studied. The results showed that the functional activation or fatiguing of masticatory muscles and the degree of mouth opening affect size discrimination interocclusally. The ability to perceive thickness differences between the incisors was more accurate after 1 hour's chewing than normally. The trend was significant with 0.5 mm and 10 mm mouth openings (2 P less than 0.01) and highly significant with an 20 mm mouth opening (2 P less than 0.001). With a 20 mm mouth opening (2 P less than 0.01) and 10 mm mouth opening (2 P less than 0.05) size discrimination was less accurate after two hours' fatiguing chewing than after one hour's conventional chewing. After 30 seconds' forceful isometric contraction and with 20 mm mouth opening discrimination was more accurate than normally (2 P less than 0.01). The trend was the same with a 10 mm mouth opening, but no difference could be observed when the mouth opening was 0.5 mm. The memory tests showed that with a 0.5 mm mouth opening thickness differences of 0.3-0.5 mm were most commonly correctly perceived twenty-four hours later, but when the mouth openings were 10 and 20 mm an interval of only 1 min between the reference and test piece trial impaired the performance.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268919"}

The changes were classified according to extent. In addition, the depth of the arthrotic lesions was determined. Nearly half (48 of 102) of the adult TMJs revealed some form of change. No changes in the joint surfaces were noted from individuals under 20 years of age. Deviations in form occurred in 45 of the 48 affected joints and arthrosis in 24. The deviations in form were most common in the condyle while arthrotic lesions were noted mainly in the disk and temporal component of the joint.

Questionnaires about subjective symptoms were sent by post to 120 patients referred to the clinic for mandibular dysfunction. A group of 20 patients with crepitation of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and a group of 19 patients with palpatory tenderness of the TMJ were compared with a reference group of 29 patients for any difference in local subjective symptoms, frequency of headache and symptoms in other joints. The patients with TMJ crepitation, which were considered to have TMJ osteoarthrosis, were older and reported a higher frequency of grating sound from the TMJ than the patients in the reference group. The patients with palpatory tenderness of the TMJ reported a higher frequency of toothgrinding, more severe symptoms of mandibular dysfunction and a higher frequency of symptoms in the hand joints. No correlation was found between subjective symptoms of mandibular dysfunction and those of other joints. The results of the study indicate that patients with TMJ osteoarthrosis do not differ from other patients with mandibular dysfunction with respect to subjective symptoms and that subjective symptoms of mandibular dysfunction in general develop independently of those in other joints.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268923"}

Three mechanisms seem to be involved in the antihypertensive effect of pindolol: 1) a negative chronotropic effect on the heart, 2) a decrease in peripheral vascular resistance and 3) an increase in venous capacitance affecting the venous return.

Dentoalveolar morphology was described by 17 linear and angular variables and postural relationships by 18 angular variables. The position of the head in relation to the cervical column showed positive correlations with the anterior upper and lower dentoalveolar heights and with the inclinations of the upper and lower occlusal planes.

Spleen size, initial platelet counts, and periodic acid-Schiff scores did not distinguish E+ from E- patients. Since few patients were black and few presented with central nervous system leukemia, the association of these two characteristics with E+ blasts could not be determined. A hierarchical classification scheme and a linear logistic regression model were used to define the patterns of characteristics associated with E+ lymphoblasts.

Friend erythroleukemia cells, originally derived from DBA/2 mice, differentiate when cultured with inducing agents. Studies of the different effects of inducing agents on clone 745 have revealed that both dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and hemin produce benzidine-positive cells. Butyric acid produced mature but benzidine-negative cells in this clone. All agents induced globin synthesis above the 0.1% of protein synthesis found in uninduced cells. DMSO induction stimulated globin synthesis 9%, hemin 2%, and butyric acid 3%. Total beta/alpha ratios were approximately unity with all agents. Although the inducing agents all stimulated total globin synthesis in Friend cells, the relative rates of synthesis of the two mouse beta chains were affected differently by the various agents. Hemin markedly increased the proportion of beta minor. For example, DBA/2 mouse reticulocytes synthesized 20% beta minor and 80% beta major. DMSO induction of clone 745 caused 20%-33% synthesis of beta minor. In contrast, hemin increased the proportion of beta minor to 64%-69%.

Bone formation due to excessive production of growth hormone was studied in a case of acromegaly. Resorption of bone due to pathologic processes resembled the pattern found in surfaces which were undergoing resorption by osteoclasts. Lamelar-cortical bone formation in acromegally was similar in nature to normal bone. The deformities were rleated to the excessive continuous osteogenesis that occurs in these instances. Neoplastic ossification was characterized by calcifying globules, the diameters of which ranged from 1 to 3 micron. The surfaces of these globules were constructed of minute calcospherites with diameters ranging from 0.1 to 0.3 micron.

Chromosomes were studied in the bone marrow cells of 101 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) hospitalized at or attending the clinics of Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) between January, 1968, and December, 1976. Aneuploidy was observed in about 50% (54/101) of the cases. Two cases were hypodiploid and the remaining were either pseudo or hyperdiploid. The frequency of abnormalities and the chromosomal numbers were similar to those of 106 cases studied in our laboratory prior to 1968. Of 50 recently unselected cases of ALL in whom Q- and G-banded karyotypes were attempted, 31 were successfully analyzed with these techniques. The banding patterns revealed 16 cases to have chromosome abnormalities and four of these to have a similar abnormality, i.e., partial deletion of the long arm of chromosome no. 6: two cases had a 6q- with additional abnormalities and two had 6q- as the sole karyotypic abnormality. The breakpoint in chromosome no. 6 seemed to involve a segment from q21 to q25. An isochromosome of the long arm of no. 7, i(7q), was observed in two cases, two additional no. 21 chromosomes were observed in five cases and, except for the Y, all other chromosomes participated in the karyotypic changes encountered in the 16 cases in which banding analyses were performed. Banding analysis has afforded the first reliable approach towards ascertaining karyotypic evolution in ALL, which was achieved in eight cases of the present study. The chromosomes contributing to this karyotypic evolution were distributed widely. Thus, all chromosomes except the Y participated in numerical and/or structural karyotypic changes. Even though nonrandom chromosome changes may occur early in ALL, the pristine prototypic picture of the karyotypes in ALL is often obfuscated by successive chromosomal changes and hyperdiploidy by the time the karyotypes are analyzed in this condition. Further cytogenetic studies are required, with special attention to karyotypic evolution, in order to uncover the significance of chromosomal changes in early and late ALL.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/268996"}

In the years between 1958 and 1967 the number of patients with ALL in Argentina who survived 4 years was 1%. This increased to 21% in the years between 1967 and 1972. The major cause of this increase was the initiation in 1967 of protocols of therapy on a national scale through a cooperative group known as GATLA. In AML patients the number of long-term survivals remained unchanged during both periods. A large percent of the long-term survivors had lower WBC, a higher platelet count, and no hepato- or splenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, or hemorrhagic manifestations at diagnosis. However, only for those patients with a WBC under 100,000/mm3 at diagnosis was there a significant prognostic implication (p less than 0.01).

After 4 to 5 days, these cells become pyknotic and lyse. The inhibitory affect of dexamethasone first become apparent in suspension culture at a concentration of about 5 X 10(-8) M. Receptor analysis showed the presence of specific glucocorticoid receptors with an apparent dissociation constant for dexamethasone of about 1.3 X 10(-8) M both in the sensitive and in one resistant clone analyzed. Ability to displace dexamethasone from the receptor is correlated with the known glucocorticoid activity of all steroids tested, as is their ability to inhibit cloning of sensitive cells in agarose. These results indicate that the specificity of inhibitory effects is related to receptor specificity of inhibitory effects is related to receptor specificity. Dexamethasone is a potent inhibitor when cells are cloned in agarose, having a marked effect even at a concentration of 7 X 10(-9) M.

Data from our present studies demonstrate the capability of a 105,000 X g pellet from rat normal bone marrow, turpentine-induced hyperplastic bone marrow, and chloroma tumor to transform precursor arachidonic acid into prostaglandins. The activity of the prostaglandin synthetase systems in these tissues is inhibited by the known nonsteroid antiinflammatory drug indomethacin and by two unsaturated fatty acids previously demonstrated in other tissues. Although the overall biosynthesis of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) was higher in the hyperplastic bone marrow than in the chloroma tumor, the PGF2alpha:PGE2 ratio was markedly higher (8-fold) in the chloroma tissue. This latter increase was probably due to the increased transformation of PGE2 into PGF2alpha by the NADPH-dependent PGE2 9-ketoreductase (an enzyme that catalyzes the transformation of PGE2 and PGF2alpha). These results indicate the greater capability of the malignant chloroma tissue to form PGF2alpha than of nonmalignant hyperplastic bone marrow. Although the role of PGF2alpha in the malignant myelogenous leukemic tumor is presently unclear, its increased formation in this tissue suggests that this substance may play a role in the hyperproliferative process.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269012"}

A colloidal suspension of radioactive cerium chloride was inoculated into the hind legs of Sprague Dawley rats. Bone and soft-tissue tumours were induced at the site of inoculation in 77% of the animals. All bone tumours were osteogenic osteosarcomas. Soft tissue tumours were mostly malignant and were of various histological types, predominantly fibrosarcomas, haemangiopericytomas, angiosarcomas and rhabdomyosarcomas. A kinetic study showed that the doubling time (DT) of tumours was closely correlated with the anatomical site of tumour development: bone tumours had a DT of 17.4 +/- 4.3 days and malignant tumours which developed in soft tissues had a DT ranging from 7.4 to 8.4 days with the exception of two haemangiosarcomas which had a long DT of 17 +/- 0.6 days. Pulmonary metastases were frequent for osteosarcomas and tumours of vascular origin. This model of induction of bone and soft-tissue tumours in rats by injection of a colloidal suspension of radioactive cerium chloride offers the possibility of more comprehensive physiopathological and kinetic studies of these tumours and may constitute a good model for their human counterparts.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269099"}

The admixture of plasma proteins as judged by single radial immunodiffusion took place early in the incubation period, and could be reduced by discarding the first washing medium. Hydroxyproline measurements in the medium indicated that the autolysis increased significantly after two days of incubation. Isoelectric focusing of human submandibular proteins resulted in fractions with isoelectric points closely resembling those demonstraded earlier for monkey submandibular gland proteins, but with larger acid fractions and smaller basic fractions. Virus haemagglutination inhibition (HAI) activity and sulphate incorporation was demonstrated in the most acidic, viscous fractions, whereas L-leucine incorporation was found in all fractions of the isoelectric scale.

No affinity independent of the protein synthesis was revealed between nickel and submandibular proteins, including the acidic, viscous, sulphate-incorporating glycoproteins. It is therefore possible that a nickel-containing metalloprotein is present in the submandibular secretion, but a complex formation between nickel and macromolecules similar to the nickel-albumin transport system in plasma was not found.

Attempts at liberating cell-bound bacteriocins from washed cells were unsuccessful, even when they were treated with ultrasound, EDTA, or various chemicals followed by ultrasound. On the basis of size and sensitivity to heat the bacteriocins could be divided into two groups, while their resistance to ether and chloroform and to trypsin did not follow this pattern.

The following points emerged:(1) The value of the Widal test as an aid to diagnosis was limited;(2) the flagellar antibody titre in patients' sera provided a more reliable aid towards diagnosis than did the somatic antibody titre;(3) the response of immunized and non-immunized patients to the somatic antigens was poor and often delayed well into the period following discharge from hospital;(4) titres of 1/40 and over for Vi agglutinins were present in immunized and non-immunized patients for at least 12 months after discharge without their being S. typhi excretors;(5) Vi agglutinin titres as high as 1/40 were present in TAB immunized healthy individuals and also in members of the general public;(6) the presence of S. typhi septicaemia need not result in a high antibody titre;(7) patients who relapse, may do so without enhancement of previous antibody titres and may relapse even in the presence of earlier appreciable titres.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269193"}

Evaluation of possible alternative tests showed that: (1) the sensitivity of the anti-human globulin (Coombs') test appeared greater than that of the agglutination test but the length of time (48 h) before results were available rendered it of little value in rapid diagnosis: (2) the complement fixation test offered no particular help towards diagnosis; (3) immunized and non-immunized typhoid fever patients developed fimbrial antibodies, as also did immunized healthy individuals.

Experimental investigations of some clothes for barrier nursing. Clothes-borne transmission is an important way of spread of infection from patient to patient which is not interrupted by common cotton gowns. New barrier garments were designed from spun-bonded olefin that, in particle penetration tests, was 100 times better as a filter than cotton cloth. Three designs, a gown, a loose coverall and a close overall, were compared with each other and with conventional cotton gowns in experimental exercise and nursing procedures. Staphylococcus aureus from burned patients were used as markers. The close coverall was 4-7 times better than the loose coverall or gown in preventing the soiling of clothes worn underneath it, but appeared to permit substantially more transfer from garments underneath it to a mock 'patient' and to the air than did the looser garments. A cotton gown reduced the soiling of clothes underneath it by more than 10 times and the contamination of a mock patient by more than 30 times as compared with no barrier garment. The close coverall further diminished the contamination of clothes but not the transfer to the patient. The possible mechanisms for the discrepancy between particle transmission tests annd experimental porcedures are discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269195"}

An epidemic of acute haemorrhagic conjunctivitis (AHC) recurred at Lucknow during July to September 1975, after a gap of 4 years. Out of the 35 cases investigated thoroughly, 20 Entero-70-like cytopathogenic agents were isolated from the conjunctiva which were neutralized by antisera against AHC virus J670/71 of Japan. Seroconversion was seen in 7 out of 11 paired sera from patients. Serological study was also done on 100 sera collected before the AHC epidemic of 1971, 100 sera after 1971 and 100 sera after 1975 epidemic. There were no neutralizing antibodies in the pre-epidemic period, while 18% of sera after the first epidemic and 32% after the second epidemic showed antibodies. The incidence of antibodies was highest (43%) in children aged below 10 years. Of the children born after the first epidemic, 44% had antibodies. Thus our findings show that the AHC virus appeared for the firt time at Lucknow in 1971 and the almost complete absence of disease in children, and its mildness during second epidemic, may be due to immunity.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269197"}

The pattern of spread of the epidemic in the Middle East in 1960 could have been laid down by the infected midges carried on spells of south-east winds, and analyses of outbreaks in Algeria in 1965 and India in 1960 also suggested windborne spread of the disease. Each spread occurred when the presence of virus, host and vector coincided either with a spell of winds unusual for a particular time of year (Spain, Cyprus, Cape Verde Islands and Algeria) or with a series of disturbances usual at that time of the year (Middle East and India). Inferred flight endurance of the midge varied up to at least 20 h and flight range from 40 to 700 km. Flight occurred when temperatures were likely to have been in the range of 15-25 degrees C if it was at night or 20 to about 40 degrees C if it was by day.It is suggested that likely movements of midges on the wind can be estimated from synoptic weather charts, and should be taken into account when planning control of the disease in the face of an outbreak. Such control includes a ban on movement of horses, vaccination and spraying of insecticide.The risk of spread to countries outside the endemic areas should be assessed by reference to possible wind dispersal of infected midges.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269203"}

I. Effect of age, sex, length of stay and antibiotic use on nasal carriage of tetracycline-resistant Staphyloccus aureus and on post-operative wound infection. Cross-sectional surveys of infection in relation to ward structure and practice were made in 38 hospitals between 1967 and 1973, including repeat surveys in 12 hospitals. The survey team (a research nurse and a senior microbiologist or technician) visited one ward a day and entered data on patients, including appearance of wounds seen at change of dressings, on the structure of the ward, and on ward practices; bacteriological swabs were taken from noses of all patients and staff of wards visited and from infected or open wounds, also from some environmental sites. Effect of age, sex, length of hospital stay and antibiotic use on carriage of tetracycline-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and on post-operative sepsis are considered here.Clinical infection (sepsis), further classified as ;severe', ;moderate' or ;mild' in accordance with a code of physical signs, including inflammation and suppuration, was found in 6.1% of clean undrained operation wounds. Drained wounds and those through hollow, heavily colonized viscera (;contaminated' wounds) had higher sepsis rates than undrained and ;clean' wounds; there was less sepsis with closed drainage and with small drains. Staph. aureus (24%) was the commonest single bacterial species, but gram-negative bacilli (50%) were found in a much larger proportion of septic wounds. The results showed that the infection rate was lowest among patients between 20 and 40 years old. Infection was significantly more common in male than in female patients.Nasal carriage of tetracycline-resistant Staph. aureus, used as an index of hospital-acquired infection, was commonest in geriatric patients and least common in gynaecological patients.

The similarities between the various conditions described are remarkable. The orbital or frontal bruit and pulsating exophthalmos are common only to the carotid-cavernous fistula. A recent history of dental treatment, of facial infection with an elevated white blood cell count, and leukocytosis suggests cavernous sinus thrombosis. The superior orbital fissure syndrome and orbital apex syndrome occur most frequently in conjuction with Le Fort II and III fractures, which can involve the optic foramen and superior orbital fissure, therefore disrupting the sensory and motor innervation to the orbit and adjacent structures (Fig 4). Direct orbital trauma without evidence of fracture and with all symptoms mentioned, except infection, bruit, and pulsating exophthalmos, suggests orbital hematoma. A thorough differential diagnosis with complete data is essential for a correct diagnosis, thereby reducing morbidity by institution of the appropriate treatment. Treatments for carotid cavernous fistula have varied over the years--all aiming toward abolition of the fistula. Currently, the preferred treatment is the supraclinoid clamping of the internal carotid artery, followed by muscle embolization of the internal carotid artery distal to the bifurcation, and clamping of the internal carotid artery in the neck.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269234"}

The hypophysectomized rats failed to gain weight after 5 days. The palatal epithelium showed a normal morphology indicating the hypophysectomy allowed for differentiation of squamous epithelium. There was a significant reduction in the thickness of the epithelium and a reduced cell density. This was attributed to a significant decrease in DNA synthesis. The epithelial cells were lost from the surface without adequate replacement due to an expected depression in mitotic activity.

Prolonged inactivity of soleus (slow twitch) and medial head of flexor digitorum longus (fast twitch: previously commonly known as flexor hallucis longus and hereafter referred to as FDL) muscles of the cat was produced by sodium pentobarbitone anaesthesia or spinal isolation. Isometric contraction characteristics were examined after 4-22 days and 8-49 days respectively.2. Sleep of up to 3 weeks' duration was associated with progressive changes in the weight, maximum tetanic tension, speed of contraction and absolute refractory period of fast twitch muscle. The slow muscle showed corresponding changes which were not so pronounced. Cord isolation resulted in similar changes which tended to be reversed after longer periods of disuse.3. Fast muscle frequently exhibited an after-contraction with corresponding electromyographic activity following two weeks or more of disuse.4. The time to peak of FDL was prolonged, becoming approximately one and a half times normal. In contrast to other reports of disuse, that of soleus was normal or slightly prolonged.5. The ratio of twitch to tetanic tension of FDL increased to twice the normal value or greater and remained high. The soleus muscle showed a smaller increase with evidence of a return towards normal after longer periods of inactivity.6. Absolute refractory period of FDL was considerably prolonged (more than 50%) following barbiturate sleep and this also occurred, but to a lesser degree, with soleus after 4-7 weeks of cord isolation.7. The observation that inactivity produced slowing rather than an increased speed of switch contraction indicates that aggregate activity is not the controlling factor.

Nine of the patients with missing teeth received fixed partial dentures and occlusal adjustments. Another group of nine subjects with normal occlusions were used as controls. Electromyographic recordings of the bilateral temporal and masseter muscles enabled quantification of two reflex parameters, the EMG silent period duration, and the mechanical latency of the jaw-opening reflex. Phase-plane traces of jaw-closing velocity as a function of position displayed the repeatability of the median occlusal position. The statistical analysis disclosed that the mean duration of EMG silent periods and latency of the jaw-opening reflex were significantly reduced following the treatment procedures.

Degree of jaw separation and potential for maximum jaw separation. Accurate diagnosis and treatment of the gnathostomatic system require an understanding of both its biomechanics and its physiology. Clinically, the treatment consists of modifying the existing occlusal program to relieve stress from distressed tissues. The objective of treatment is to effect a neuromuscular release of the mandible. This may be accomplished by (1) equilibration of the natural occlusion, (2) orthodontics, (3) restorative procedures, or (4) surgery. Most frequently, however, the treatment entails some combination of these procedures. The criteria for success of treatment are not determined by the method or technique employed but by the neuromuscular response that the treatment produces. The purpose of this article is not to suggest which occlusal scheme produces the most favorable muscle response in the gnathostomatic tissues. Neither is an objective of this article to teach the mandible-manipulation techniques that are needed to identify occlusal irritants, perform occlusal equilibrations, or obtain accurate centric relation recores. The objective of this article is to emphasize that there are definite principles by which the muscles respond to occlusal contacts. Occlusal contacts can excite bruxism and the sequelae to bruxism.

To elucidate the mechanisms by which protein synthesis is affected by estradiol, we characterized cockerel liver polysomal profiles during hormone induction and withdrawal. We describe a method for isolating intact polysomes which results in preparations that are stable even after storage in solution at 10 degrees for 16 hr. In addition, our procedure eliminates the necessity for starving animals prior to experiments. Recovery of radioactive polysomes indicated that yield is about 90% and that our polysomal preparations appear to represent polysome distribution in vivo. Using this approach we show that estradiol injection stimulates ribosome content 6-fold and that formation of polysomes is coincident with the induction of vitellogenin synthesis. We also demonstrate that the size and number of polysomes increase and decrease in a coordinated fashion with the rate of vitellogenin synthesis. The kinetics of ribosome synthesis and the fact that at least 80% of the newly synthesized ribosomes are directly recruited into polysomes indicate that ribosomes might be limiting the rate of protein synthesis during the stimulatory phase of the hormone cycle.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269377"}

Administration of a single dose of estradiol to immature rats gives rise to the appearance of substantial amounts of peroxidase (donor:hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.11.1.7) enzyme activity in the uterus. This enzyme induction, which is inhibited by administration of actinomycin D and cycloheximide, can be detected at 4 hr after administration of estradiol, reaches a maximum level by 20 hr, and thereafter declines. The amount of uterine peroxidase seen at 20 hr after a single dose increases with dose from 0.1 to 100 microgram of estradiol. Estrone and estriol also show dose-dependent induction of peroxidase, and the quantitative peroxidase responses to these steroids follow their uterotropic capacities. The antiestrogen CI628, capable of low levels of enzyme induction by itself, can inhibit the induction due to estrogen. Solubilization of the uterine enzyme with divalent cations, especially calcium, results in a substantially increased yield of peroxidase.

The cistron A protein induced by phage varphiX174 nicks (produces a single-strand break in) the viral strand of the superhelical varphiX duplex DNA, thereby forming a complex with the DNA. The protein, seen bound to the DNA in the electron microscope, was located in the restriction endonuclease fragment between nucleotides 4290 and 4330 on the varphiX map [Sanger, F., Air, G. M., Barrel, B. G., Brown, N. L., Coulson, A. R., Fiddes, J. C., Hutchison, C. A., III, Slocomb, P. M. Y. & Smith, M. (1977) Nature 265, 687-695]. Replication also was initiated at this point, thus identifying the site of cistron A protein nicking and binding as the origin of replication. The cisA-DNA complex (separated from free cistron A protein), upon the addition of Escherichia coli rep protein, ATP, and DNA binding protein, is unwound to generate a single-stranded linear [presumably the nicked (+) strand] and a circular [presumably the (-) strand] molecule. The cisA-DNA complex, upon the further addition of DNA polymerase III holoenzyme and deoxynucleoside triphosphates, supports replication to generate viral, single-stranded circles, as many as 15 circles per cisA-DNA complex. The replicating intermediates seen in the electron microscope are a novel form of \"rolling circle\" [Gilbert, W. & Dressler, D. H. (1969) Cold Spring Harbor Symp. Quant. Biol. 33, 473-485]. The 5' end (presumably with the cistron A protein bound to it) is locked in the replication fork and loops back to accompany the strand-separation and replication fork around the template [(-) strand] circle. Thus, the multiple functions of cistron A protein include: (i) nicking the viral strand at the origin of replication to initiate a round of replication, (ii) participating in a complex which supports fork movement in strand separation and replication, (iii) nicking again at the regenerated origin to produce a unit-length DNA, and (iv) ligating the newly generated 3'-OH end to the 5'-phosphate-complexed end to form a circular viral molecule.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269383"}

Component alpha DNA is a homogeneous, highly repetitive fraction that comprises nearly a quarter of the African green monkey (Cercopithecus aethiops) genome. By restriction enzyme analysis, it has a repeat periodicity of 176 +/- 4 nucleotide base pairs, corresponding closely with the length of DNA contained within a nucleosome. The sequence is organized into large blocks of constitutive heterochromatin. A method is described here for the isolation of intact polynucleosomal arrays containing only component alpha sequences. Isolated monkey nuclei are treated with EcoRI, which releases only component alpha nucleosomal arrays; the arrays are then fractionated and purified by sedimentation in sucrose gradients. The method permits a compositional analysis of the proteins associated with a constitutively repressed, heterochromatic sequence. The major differences in the proteins associated with component alpha nucleosomes that distinguish them from the bulk DNA nucleosomes are a decrease in the content of the H1 histones in the component alpha nucleosomes and a concomitant increase in the amount of certain nonhistone proteins. The specific observations are: (i) In the component alpha nucleosomes, 65-70% of the proteins were nonhistone proteins; this contrasts with the value, 40%, for nonhistone proteins associated with nucleosomes containing bulk DNA. (ii) The amount of H1 histone in chromatin containing predominantly bulk DNA was about 13.7%. However, the H1 histone was depleted and possibly absent in component alpha oligonucleosomes. (iii) Coincident with the decrease in the H1 histones and in the same molecular weight range (24,000-43,000), there appeared five minor nonhistone proteins. The minor, low-molecular-weight, nonhistone proteins were not detected in chromatin containing bulk DNA but they represented nearly 12% of the protein in component alpha nucleosomes. The resistance to salt extraction (0.6-2.0 M NaCl) indicates that the low-molecular-weight nonhistone proteins are tenaciously bound to the component alpha nucleosomes. In addition, a class of high-molecular-weight (>100,000) nonhistone proteins was enriched 5- or 6-fold in component alpha oligonucleosomes.

In water, glucagon exists in an equilibrium between a trimer in which more than half of the peptide groups are in an alpha-helical configuration and a monomer which has a random coil configuration with few alpha-helical residues. The thermodynamics of this self-association have been evaluated by studying the temperature- and concentration-dependence of the mean residue ellipticity at 220 nm. The enthalpy and entropy changes of association were negative at all temperatures between 5 degrees and 50 degrees and had large negative temperature dependencies. Usually an association that involves nonpolar groups is considered to be driven by a positive entropy term. Such an explanation is not tenable in the case of glucagon. However, if the effects of nonpolar groups on the coil-to-helix transition of a polypeptide are included into the thermodynamic considerations of hydrophobic interactions, then the negative parameters observed for glucagon association can be readily understood. The hydrophobic interaction is therefore not necessarily controlled by the entropy change because, if there are significant conformational changes, the reaction may be controlled by the enthalpy change. Consequently, the more important parameter characteristic of all hydrophobic reactions is the heat capacity change.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269394"}

In microsomal vesicles approximately 40% of the outer surface phospholipids were cleaved before the enzyme gained access to the interior of the vesicles. The same conclusion was reached for Golgi vesicles. By following the degradation of the three major phospholipids in intact microsomes and in extracted lipids we found that the same fraction of each of these phospholipids was exposed on the outer surface of the microsomal vesicles. Corresponding experiments with Golgi vesicles showed that distinctly different fractions of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine were present on the surface of these vesicles. However, the difference was accounted for by enrichment of phosphatidylcholine in intravesicular particles rather than by asymmetry across the vesicle membrane.

Cycloheximide blocked some, but not all, of the opiate-dependent increase in adenylate cyclase activity. These results suggest that the opiate-dependent increase in adenylate cyclase is due to conversion of adenylate cyclase to a form with altered activity.

There is a linear relationship between the amount of mRNA injected and the interferon yield obtained over a range of 1-20 ng of injected RNA. Injection of 40-80 ng of mRNA into each of 15 oocytes, homogenized in 0.3 ml of incubation medium, gave a titer of 128-256 interferon reference units/ml of homogenate.FS-4 cells at the peak of interferon production-i.e., approximately 2.5 hr after the beginning of induction with poly(I).poly(C)-gave mRNA that yielded 24-48 interferon reference units/ml in the oocyte assay (30 ng of RNA injected per oocyte). An equivalent amount of mRNA from FS-4 cells in the shutoff phase, approximately 6 hr after induction, gave </=4 interferon reference units/ml.

Polyadenylylated RNA obtained from uninduced FS-4 cells did not lead to detectable interferon synthesis (<4 interferon reference units/ml).

Experiments were performed to test whether fraction I protein in the hybrid plant was a hybrid molecule or two kinds of protein molecules, one composed of large subunits combined with small subunits of the male type and the other composed of large subunits combined with small subunits of the female type. A mixture of fraction I proteins from Nicotiana langsdorffii and N. bonariensis was resolved into two components of different charge by agarose gel electrophoresis but the protein from the F(1) hybrid plant between the two species was a single component. However, two-dimensional agarose gel electrophoresis showed that fraction I protein from an F(1) hybrid could be highly heterogeneous in charge compared to a fraction I protein containing a single small subunit polypeptide that was homogeneous in charge. Evidently, charge heterogeneity results from random self-assembly of the small subunit polypeptides. Random self-assembly of small subunits of two types could result in a mixture in which 99.2% of the population are hybrid molecules composed of seven types together with 0.39% containing small subunits of the maternal type and 0.39% containing those of the paternal type. In an F(1) hybrid plant in which three small subunit polypeptides randomize during assembly, a mixture of 45 types of fraction I protein macromolecules could be present.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269403"}

The motility mutant of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii pf14 lacks radial spoke structures in its flagellar axonemes, and 12 proteins present in wild type are missing from a two-dimensional map (isoelectrofocusing/sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis) of its (35)S-labeled flagellar proteins. Six of these same proteins are missing in pf1, which lacks spoke-heads. To determine whether any of the missing proteins represent the mutant gene product two experimental approaches have been applied. The first makes use of the fact that gametes of either mutant strain when fused with wild-type gametes to form quadriflagellate dikaryons undergo recovery of flagellar function. Recovery at the molecular level was monitored by prelabeling the mutant proteins with (35)S and allowing recovery to occur in the absence of protein synthesis. It is to be expected that the mutant gene product would not be restored as a radioactive protein and that recovery would depend on the assembly of the wild-type counterpart that is not labeled. The second technique makes use of revertants induced by UV irradiation. Dikaryon rescue in the case of pf14 leads to restoration of 11 radioactive components; only protein 3 fails to appear as a radioactive spot. For pf1 only two radioactive proteins are restored; proteins 4, 6, 9, and 10 were not radioactive. Analysis of revertants of pf1 gave evidence (altered map positions) that protein 4 is the mutant gene product. In the case of pf14, analysis of 22 revertants has not provided similar positive evidence that protein 3 is the gene product.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269405"}

Current theory in sexual selection is extended to predict within-sex variability with regard to selectivity towards mates in different mating systems. Generally, the sex that invests more in the care of each offspring should be more selective of mates than the sex investing less. Within each sex, individuals of low male quality should be less selective than individuals of high quality, but there should be less variation in selectivity among individuals of the sex investing more. When only one sex contributes parental care, however, individuals of that sex should be uniformly selective, while the other sex is expected to mate indiscriminately. Using feral pigeons (Columba livia), these hypotheses are tested for the case in which both sexes contribute substantial parental care, but in which females contribute more than males. As predicted, females were found to be more selective of mates than males were.

The female germ cell stage of primary importance in radiation genetic hazards is the immature, arrested oocyte. In the mouse, this stage has a near zero or zero sensitivity to mutation induction by radiation. However, the application of these mouse results to women has been questioned on the ground that the mouse arrested oocytes are highly sensitive to killing by radiation, while the human cells are not; and, furthermore, that the mature and maturing oocytes in the mouse, which are resistant to killing, are sensitive to mutation induction. The present results have a 2-fold bearing on this problem. First, a more detailed analysis of oocyte-stage sensitivity to killing and mutation induction shows that there is no consistent correlation, either negative or positive, between the two. This indicates that the sensitivity to cell killing of the mouse immature oocyte may not be sufficient reason to prevent its use in predicting the mutational response of the human immature oocyte. Second, if the much more cautious assumption is made that the human arrested oocyte might be as mutationally sensitive as the most sensitive of all oocyte stages in the mouse, namely the maturing and mature ones, then the present data on the duration of these stages permit more accurate estimates than were heretofore possible on the mutational response of these stages to chronic irradiation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269410"}

The basic topographic organization of the histologically definable motor neuron clusters of the lateral motor columns remains unchanged by the addition of a supernumerary leg. Intramuscular injections of identified leg muscles have been used to map the intraspinal location of specific motor pools in stage 38 (12-day) embryos. In the normal embryo, the gastrocnemius muscle is innervated by neurons in a central dorsal cluster of motor neurons in segments 26-29. In six experimental cases, the motor neurons supplying the gastrocnemius muscle of a rostrally placed grafted leg were consistently located in a specific medial cluster of neurons in segments 23-25. Motor neurons in this location never normally innervate a gastrocnemius muscle, even in the very young embryos during the period of naturally occurring cell death.

This paper compares the transport of Li(+) and Na(+) in erythrocytes from a patient with mania and from members of his family to that in erythrocytes from normal humans. In normal human erythrocytes, Li(+) is transported by at least three operationally distinct pathways: one inhibited by ouabain (ouabain-sensitive), one by phloretin (phloretin-sensitive), and one not inhibited by either compound (insensitive). Li(+) can be driven up its electrochemical potential gradient by an oppositely directed electrochemical potential gradient for Na(+)-i.e., Li(+)/Na(+) counterflow can occur-through the phloretin-sensitive pathway but not through the other two pathways. Because ouabain-sensitive Li(+) transport is negligible under physiological conditions, Li(+) distribution between erythrocytes and plasma in vivo depends mainly on the balance between Li(+)/Na(+) counterflow and the insensitive pathway(s) of Li(+) transport. The steady-state ratio of Li(+) concentration in the erythrocytes to that in the plasma of the patient was between 2 and 3 times higher than the comparable ratio in normal persons. The phloretin-sensitive Li(+)/Na(+) counterflow system was almost absent in the erythrocytes of the patient. Furthermore, unlike those from normal individuals, the patient's erythrocytes showed no external Li(+)-stimulated, phloretin-sensitive, ouabain-insensitive Na(+) efflux. The magnitudes of the ouabain-sensitive and insensitive pathways for Li(+) transport in the patient's erythrocytes were within normal limits. The decreased Li(+)/Na(+) counterflow in the patient's erythrocytes was probably not due to the presence of an inhibitor in the plasma of the patient but rather to an intrinsic defect in the erythrocytes. Because the father and several siblings of the patient showed a similar abnormality in erythrocyte Li(+)/Na(+) transport, it is probable that this defect is inherited.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269417"}

Vitamin D-deficient rats showed a markedly diminished rate of uptake and level of equilibration.

With short labeling periods (10 and 25 min) there is a major labeled species with an apparent molecular weight of 22,000 and a smaller peak comigrating with purified betaNGF chains (13,260). As time proceeds, the radioactivity in the 22,000 molecular weight peak plateaus, while the label in betaNGF continues to increase, until by 4 hr it greatly exceeds the radioactivity of the 22,000 molecular weight species.

It appears that p20 has two distinct roles in head assembly: first, in construction of the prehead shell (blocked by ts and am mutation) and, second,in DNA packaging (blocked by cs mutation). The latter function is closely associated with gene 17 product, previously known to be required for DNA packagaing. Temperature shift studies of cs-ts double mutants and other observations allow determination of phage function required for DNA packaging. Contrary to previous proposals, we find that T4 DNA packaging is not directly coupled to and can follow DNA synthesis, protein cleavage, prehead core removal, and gene 21-mediated cleavage-induced increase in head volume.

After intact, cycling female mice received subcutaneous injections of antipain and leupeptin for 16 days, their uteri showed significant diminution in weight and total DNA when compared to untreated controls. Fertility rates were also diminished. Trypsin-like protease activity may be essential to normal uterine metabolism and function.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269427"}

A soluble extract prepared from HeLa cell nuclei has been shown to catalyze the 5'-terminal modification of RNA and synthetic polyribonucleotides to form m7G(5')pppA-and m7G(5')-pppG- structures referred to as caps. The reaction involves the transfer of a GMP moiety from GTP to the 5' end of an RNA molecule containing at least two terminal phosphates. Significantly, neither the beta nor the gamma phosphates of GTP are transferred and polynucleotides with no 5'-terminal phosphate or only one are not acceptors. In the absence of methyl donor, G(5')pppA- and G(5')pppG- structures were synthesized, indicating that methylation is not required for guanylylation. Cap formation was considered to occur by the following mechanism:  (see article), in which AdoMet is S-adenosylmethionine, AdoHcy is S-adenosylhomocysteine, and (p)ppN- represents either the original 5' end of an RNA molecule or an internal site to which one or more phosphates were added after processing.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269428"}

Upon incubation of [14C]mannose-labeled mannosyl retinyl phosphate with a membrane fraction from rat liver, mannose was transferred to an endogenous acceptor precipitable withchloroform/methanol to the extent of about 7%. The reaction proceeded linearly with time for 120 min at a pH optimum of about 7.0. The acceptor thus labeled with mannose could be solubilized by sodium dodecyl sulfate/mercaptoethanol. More than half of this acceptor appeared in the void volume of a Sephadex G-100 column. When it was digested with Pronase, a substantial proportion of it appeared between the void and bed volumes of a Sephadex G-100 column, thus indicating that it was a glycopeptide. In high-voltage paper electrophoresis, this glycopeptide moved to the cathode at low pH and to the anode at highpH. When digested with highly purified jack bean alpha-mannosidase, the glycopeptide released almost 50% of its radioactivity as mannose. That this transfer of mannose to glycoprotein from mannosyl retinyl phosphate does not take place via dolichyl mannosyl phosphate was shown by the fact that it is Mn2+ and Mg2+ independent, it is not inhibited by the presence of a 10-fold molar excess of nonradioactive GDP-mannose, and neither 14C-labeled dolichyl mannosyl phosphate nor 14-C labeled lipid pyrophosphoryl oligosaccharide could be detected during the incubation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269429"}

We have shown that 3-nitropropionate, an isoelectronic analogue of succinate, is a suicide inactivator of succinate dehydrogenase [succinate:(acceptor) oxidoreductase, EC 1.3.99.1] as follows. (i) When rat liver mitochondria oxidize succinate in the presence of 3-nitropropionate carbanion, the rate of O(2) consumption decreases exponentially to a zero value. This pattern is duplicated by subsequent additions of mitochondria. The dependence of the apparent first-order rate constant for enzyme inhibition, as well as the number of enzyme turnovers completed before inhibition, on the concentrations of 3-nitropropionate carbanion and succinate are those expected for an active site-directed and irreversible inhibitor. (ii) The inactivated enzyme is not resuscitated by centrifugation and washing of the mitochondria, in contrast to malonate-treated enzyme, and malonate protects against irreversible, inhibition. (iii) The inhibitor species is 3-nitropropionate carbanion and no external nucleophile is required for inhibition. (iv) The respiratory rates, respiratory control ratios, and ADP/O ratios obtained with NAD-linked substrates are unaffected by 3-nitropropionate carbanion. These results show that 3-nitropropionate carbanion is a highly specific, time-dependent, and irreversible inhibitor of succinate dehydrogenase. By analogy with the reaction of nitroethane with D-amino acid oxidase, the data are consistent with the hypothesis that the carbanionic inhibitor forms a covalent N-5 adduct with the active site flavin. However, the precise mechanism of inactivation, as well as mechanistic extrapolations to the oxidation of succinate, must await the elucidation of the structure of the modified enzyme. We can now explain the toxicity of plants such as Indigofera endecaphylla for mammals and fowl as being due to the irreversible blockage of the Krebs cycle by 3-nitropropionate carbanion.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269430"}

The structure of assembled histone H4 fibers has been studied by analysis of electronmicrographs, including optical diffraction. An individual fiber has the appearance of an 80-A wide ribbon, twisted at intervals of about 330 A. Thicker fibers which have been observed seem to be bundles of ribbons. In diffraction patterns from both kinds of fiber, layer lines at axial spacings of about 1/55 A-1, 1/37 A-1, and 1/27 A-1 were most consistently observed. The possible arrangements of molecules within the twisted ribbons have been deduced and are found to be fairly closely related. The ribbons appear to consist of two parallel, unstaggered rows of repeating units, which are probably H4 dimers. The similarity between the observed layer line spacings of the H4 fibers and the spacings of the maxima in x-ray diffraction patterns from whole chromatin suggests that the H4 fibers have a structure related to that of chromatin. Since homogeneous preparations of histones H2A, H2B, and H3, or any mixture of these four histones, can form similar structures, it seems likely that the basic organization of chromatin is determined by a fibrous histone core around which the DNA is wrapped.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269431"}

An immunoelectron microscopic method is described for sensitive high-resolution visualization of tissuebound cholera toxin. The principle is to incubate cells or tissue sections with toxin and then to localize the bound toxin with toxin-specific peroxidase (donor:hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase; EC 1.11.1.7)-conjugated antibody and enzyme substrate. Thin sections are examined for electron-opaque precipitates in a transmission electron microscope. Because of the specific binding of the toxin to membrane ganglioside G(M1), the method can be used for ultrastructural localization of this ganglioside. Semiquantitative data are obtained by titration of the limiting concentration of cholera toxin producing specific precipitates. The specificity of the method was controlled in various ways, including analyses of the correlation between the immunoelectron microscopy results and determinations of ganglioside G(M1) in tissues with different ganglioside concentrations, tissues hydrolyzed with Vibrio cholerae sialidase, tissues in which exogenous G(M1) has been incorporated, and lipid-extracted tissues. The immunoelectron microscopic method demonstrates that membrane G(M1) ganglioside is positioned on the external side exclusively. Cell-bound toxin remains in its original location on the plasma membrane surface of cells below 18 degrees , but appears to be redistributed both laterally and vertically in the membrane of cells incubated at 37 degrees for 30 min or longer. The results of this method indicate that in the central nervous system G(M1) is concentrated in the pre- and postsynaptic membranes of the synaptic terminals; a further increase in reactivity of these structures after hydrolysis of the nervous tissue with V. cholerae sialidase suggests that higher gangliosides of the same series are particularly increased in the pre- and postsynaptic junctions.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269432"}

The sequences are also found at approximately 200,000 copies per cell in poly(A)-containing RNA extracted from mature oocytes. To rule out contamination of the oocytes with somatic cells, two additional experiments were performed. First, RNA isolated from ovulated unfertilized eggs, which are devoid of somatic cells, was also shown to contain the globin sequences. Second, globin mRNA was isolated from Xenopus tadpoles. Adult globin mRNA is free of the tadpole sequence and no homology was detected between adult and tadpoles globin RNA. The ovary was shown to contain tadpole globin RNA at nearly the same concentration as the adult sequences. Thus, the results cannot be explained by contamination with erythroid cells which should contain only the adult sequence. The swimming tadpole, which possesses an active circulatory system, was also assayed for the tadpole and adult globin sequences.

The latter process follows first order kinetics, which can be quantified by a rate constant k. The temporal relationship of the interactions of PGF2 alpha, insulin, and hydrocortisone to produce alterations in the rate of exit from G1 was investigated. PGF2alpha establishes a constant lag phase and produces alterations in the rate constant k. These two effects can be partially separated by adding two concentrations of PGF2alpha at different times. Insulin fails to establish the lag phase but can stimulate the effect of PGF2alpha when added at any time after PGF2alpha. Hydrocortisone reduces the value of k when added between 0 and 3 hr after PGF2alpha.

We have used methods that have allowed simultaneous fluorescent staining of intracellular actin together with either myosin, filamin, or tubulin in normal rat kidney fibroblasts in monolayer culture. In the main portions of the cell body, the actin, myosin, and filamin are all present in two structures: in one, the three proteins are present in the same fiber bundles (stress fibers); in the other, there is a diffuse distribution of the three proteins. On portions of the cell periphery however-in the basal regions of microspikes, in ruffles, and in regions of cell-cell contact-actin and filamin are present, but myosin is severely depleted or absent. Microtubules are present in the cell body in a distribution independent of the stress fibers and are mostly absent from the cell periphery. Microspikes and ruffles are highly dynamic structures on the cell surface, and regions of cell-cell contact generally result from the association of ruffles on the two contacting cells. Therefore, the presence of filamin and actin but not myosin in these specialized regions on the cell surface, together with the recent demonstration [Wang, K. & Singer, S. J. (1977) Proc. Natl. Acad.

This response appears to be mediated through polyamine metabolism because ornithine decarboxylase (L-ornithine carboxy-lyase, EC 4.1.1.17)activity is markedly increased shortly after promoter exposure and this induction varies in magnitude according to dose and promoter potency of a series of phorbol esters. In vitro, exogenous putrescine (0.01-10 mM) results in a dose-related increase and prolongation of promoter-stimulated DNA DNA synthesis, a phenomenon noted in other systems of polyamine-mediated growth stimulation. The anti-inflammatory steroid fluocinolone acetonide (FA), an inhibitor of tumor promotion, prevents TPA stimulation of epidermal proliferation in vivo and in vitro. In vitro, FA most effectively prevents stimulation of DNA synthesis when applied is not required. Paradoxially, FA potentiates the increase in ornithine decarboxylase activity after TPA administeration both in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, the inhibition of TPA-stimulated DNA synthesis by FA in vitro can be reversed by exogenous putrescine.

Speciation rate was strongly correlated with rate of chromosomal evolution and average rates of speciation in lower vertebrate genera were one-fifth those in mammalian genera. Genera with high karyotypic diversity and rapid speciation rates may generally have small effective population size (Ne), whereas large Ne values may be associated with karyotypically uniform genera and slow rates of speciation. Speciation and chromosomal evolution seem fastest in those genera with species organized into clans or harems (e.g., some primates and horses) or with limited adult vagility and juvenile dispersal, patchy distribution, and strong individual territoriality (e.g., some rodents).

The stiffness of skinned crayfish single muscle fibers was continuously monitored at two frequencies. The length of the fibers was oscillated by the sum of two sine waves (5 Hz and 100 Hz) of small amplitudes. In saline containing saturating amounts of Ca2+, the stiffness ratio (5 Hz:100Hz) was constant as the MgATP (substrate) concentration was raised from 0 to 2 mu M, then it decreased with a further increment in MgATP. The systematic decrease in the stiffness ratio in MgATP above 2 mu M indicates the presence of faster transitions in the cross-bridge cycle. This dependence of the stiffness ratio on MgATP is predictable if we use the two-state model of A. F. Huxley (1957) with a modification, in which MgATP promotes the dissociation of the attached cross-bridges.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269452"}

Several laboratories have recently observed that common HLA typing sera contain antibodies to various nonHLA antigens, including leukemia-associated antigens and normal platelet, granulocyte, or B-lymphocyte-specific alloantigens. In order to study the possible effects of these antibodies on HLA typing data in leukemia, several of these sera were adsorbed with HLA typed platelets, purified B-lymphocytes, cultured lymphoblasts, or mononuclear cells from patients with active leukemia of various types, and retested for residual activity against previously reacting cells. The results indicate that many of the reactions of leukemia cells to HLA typing sera represent reactions to nonHLA antibodies, many of which are directed against antigens common to cultured lymphoblasts, leukemia cells of several types, and normal B-cells. In the absence of family studies or prior serum adsorption, caution should be used in interpretation of all data related to HLA antigens in leukemia.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269454"}

Following transfer to diffusion chambers intraperitoneally implanted into total body irradiated rats, LAP levels were detected in up to 92% of human and 80% of rat leucocytes. There was no associated morphologic differentiation. In rat leukaemia cells peroxidase and myeloid specific esterase also increased from tissue culture levels. Return of cells to tissue culture decreased enzymes to pre-implant levels. Addition of plasma or peritoneal fluid from irradiated rats to cells in tissue culture again induced LAP. In contrast, LAP was not increased under these conditions with cell lines derived from patients with acute lymphatic leukaemia, or Sezary cell leukaemia.

Their overall concurrence of the cytologic with the tissue diagnoses was 78 per cent and was slightly higher for the cytotechnology students than for the more experienced observers. In 44 per cent of the invasive carcinomas and in 38 per cent of carcinomas in situ, there was considerable disagreement between cytologic and tissue classification partly due to the presence of inadequate material on the cytologic slides which had been selected consecutively based on the subsequent tissue diagnosis. The pathologists reproduced their own cytologic classification within one category variance in 94 per cent of the cases as compared to 92 per cent for the cytotechnologist and 86 per cent for the students.

This case report illustrates a benign endometrial condition associated with a combination oral contraceptive agent in which psammoma bodies were produced. Additionally, it reemphasizes the fact that nonmalignant processes are capable of forming such structures. The presence of psammoma bodies in cervicovaginal material is uncommon and may be associated with the presence of a malignant tumor.  However, a variety of benign conditions are capable of forming these laminated, calcified bodies.  A case is reported in a 46-year-old woman who had been taking oral contraceptives for 3 years.  An ovary had been removed earlier for a benign cyst.  A psammoma body was identified in a cervical smear.  An acute inflammatory cellular exudate was present.  Also, embedded within the stroma were other psammoma bodies and dense, amorphous calcified structures.  No cellular dysplasia was noted.

The reported case, exceptional in our oncological material, illustrates the cytologica features of sarcoma of the vagina. We believe that the diagnosis of sarcoma of the cervix or other parts of the female genital system is not difficult providing that the tumor is exfoliating cells. Sarcomatous cells should not be mistaken either with those from keratininzing epitheliomas with desquamated fiber cells or snake cells. Such differentiation should not be a problem for an experienced cytologst. In spite of the low frequency of this malignancy, the microscopical appearance of the cells is so different from the cells of routine gynecological material that when present we should, at least, suspect a sarcoma.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269606"}
{"pmid": "269608", "title": "Mechanisms of chromatid breakage in human lymphocyte cultures.", "content": "Mechanisms of chromatid breakage in human lymphocyte cultures. G2 banding of human peripheral blood cultures with actinomycin D and tetracycline produced chromatid breakage in lightly stained Giemsa bands, and the number of such breaks tended to increase with fixation time. Chromatid breakage due to 3H-thymidine incorporation into DNA was also localized in light bands, but the number of these breaks did not increase with fixation time. These findings suggest that modification of chromosomal protein as a result of exposure to AMD or other chemicals following DNA synthesis can result in fixative-dependent chromatid breakage of susceptible chromosomal regions, unlike breakage due to 3H-thymidine which primarily affects DNA and is not affected by fixation. Thus, chromatid breakage observed in short-term lymphocyte cultures is not necessarily evidence of mutagenicity involving DNA, but rather may be due to toxic effects on synthesis or attachment of chromosomal proteins.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269608"}

The mode of chromosome number was found at the diploid range in all cases, and the exact counting of the modal range revealed that the peak of the number was 46 in 75 per cent of the analyzed cases. The distributions were even both in the hypo- and hyperdiploid areas. The karyotype analyses showed that the majority of the endometrial carcinomas presented pseudo-diploid chromosomes, revealing irregular numerical alterations of each group constitution and scattered variant chromosomes with minor structural changes. Only four cases were noted to have an unclassified chromosome with marked structural aberrations. A marker chromosome was identified in only one case, whereas no common specific chromosome was noted and the histologic findings did not correlate with chromosome aberration. From our tissue culture study, carcinomas of human corpus uteri consist mainly of the cells with a pseudodiploid chromosomal constitution.

In 6 groups of peri- and post-menopausal women, there was an inverse relation between the urinary sediment smear maturation value and the fasting urinary hydroxyproline/creatinine ratio. Administration of ethinyloestradiol and Progynova both reduced urinary hydroxyproline into the pre-menopausal range, the fall being proportional to the starting value. Oestrogen therapy also produced a significant fall in plasma ionised calcium. In a prospective trial, oestrogen therapy prevented post-menopausal bone loss but calcium therapy was less effective. It is suggested that a high fasting urinary hydroxyproline/creatinine ratio might be taken as an indication for oestrogen therapy in post-menopausal women. In established post-menopausal osteoporosis, pre-disposing risk factors appear to be low calcium intake, malabsorption of calcium and low oestrogen status. These patients appear to represent the fast bone-losers in the post-menopausal population. The accelerated bone loss can be wholly or partially corrected by hormone replacement therapy and by calcium supplements given to those with normal absorption only. These therapies also prevent loss of height due to further crush fractures. The malabsorption of calcium is very resistant to vitamin D therapy but responds to 1alpha-OHD3. Balance data suggest that the most effective therapy may be a combination of 1alpha-OHD3 with oestrogen.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269626"}

The influence of circulatory volume overload on the myocardial uptake of ouabain and on cardiotoxicity was studied in the unanaesthetised dog with aorto-caval fistula. One hour after tritiated ouabain (0-02 mg/kg IV) both ventricles and atria contained more ouabain than did those of normal dogs (left ventricle (LV), 166+/-23 (SD) ng/g vs. 97+/-19 ng/g, P less than 0-001) while concentrations in skeletal muscle, liver, kidney and plasma were not different in the two groups. In other experiments ouabain was infused to cardiotoxicity (7-5 microgram/kg followed by 3 microgram/kg/min). Cardiotoxicity occurred earlier in dogs with fistula than in normals (16-5+/-2-7 min vs. 24-1+/-2-4 min, P less than 0-001). Ouabain concentrations in myocardium were not different (LV, 434+/-58 ng/g, vs. 442+/-42 ng/g) while concentrations in liver and kidney were less in those with fistula (181+/-35 ng/g vs. 278+/-69 ng/g, P less than 0-001; 1422+/-189 ng/g vs. 2747+/-479 ng/g, P less than 0-001). Average content of skeletal muscle was also less, in proportion to administered dose. The increment in myicardial ouabain content associated with aorto-caval fistula appears to be physiologically active and hence is presumably specifically bound to the digitalis receptor.

Gonadal function in both sexes is under the synergistic control of the pituitary gonadotrophins, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinising hormone (LH) which are in turn influenced both by the hypothalamus (via the gonadotrophin releasing hormone) and by feedback signals from the gonads. There is good evidence that such feedback is mediated by steroid hormones and by a product of the germinal epithelium, termed inhibin. A logical approach to reproductive disorders involves the localization of the primary disturbance either to the hypothalamo-pituitary unit or to the gonad, on the basis of history, physical findings and the results of hormone assays. In men, the majority of disorders leading to infertility are of unknown aetiology and cannot, therefore, be treated specifically. In women, anovulation is usually readily treatable and recent studies have emphasised the usefulness of prolactin assays and of specific treatment for hyperprolactinaemia in restoring ferility. Increased understanding of the mechanisms leading to infertility may provide valuable new approaches to fertility control.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269695"}

Optimal results of repair of a severed tube can be expected when a meticulous atraumatic microsurgical technique is based on a detailed knowledge of the anatomy and function of the tube. A reliable vas repair after vasectomy involves the avoidance of leakage or scarring in a tube of which the ends differ in internal diameter from 1 mm to 0-2 mm and in which the inner mucosal layer is difficult of access because of its solid muscular core surround. In addition, the healing will only occur without massive scarring and the nerve supply will only return if the blood supply can be retained as close as possible to the anastomosis. The technique described was first researched in the Macaque monkey and requires considerable microsurgical expertise. It has proved reliable in that 98% of the first 50 patients showed sperms in their ejaculates three months after operation, with a 62% pregnancy rate after an operation on one side only.

A simple test with dexamethasone (DMS) in acute leukemia (AL) is described. In peripheral blood, blast cell count is determined before 8 mg DMS are given intravenously, and 2, 4 and 6 hours afterwards. The result is expressed as the lowest blast cell count after DMS in percentage of the initial value. This test was performed on 51 adult patients with AL. The results were correlated with the morphological and cytochemical classification. Only patients with clearly classified AL were evaluated. A statistically significant difference in blast cell response between acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) was observed. In 12 out of 16 cases of ALL, but in only 1 out of 19 cases of AML, the blast cell count decreased to 50 percent or less of the initial value. The results of the test were further correlated with the results of treatment. In 11 out of 12 patients with ALL, who showed a response to DMS, glucocorticoids were included in the treatment regimen. A complete remission was obtained in 7 out of 10 patients who were treated for the first time. In the remaining 4 patients with a poor response to DMS, a complete remission after the first treatment was obtained in only one case. The number of patients examined is to small for final conclusions on the value of this test for a discrimination between glucocorticoid-responsive and non-responsive cases of AL. Nevertheless, these preliminary results indicate that further trials seem to be warranted.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269744"}

After exclusion of 233 edentulous subjects, a total of 732 dentulous persons were accepted for the present interview study. 10 percent of the interviewees were aware of their having gingivitis at that time. 57 percent were of the opinion that they had never had gingivitis. On the other hand, 20 percent of the interviewed persons had recently observed gum bleeding while 54 percent stated that they had never observed it. 21 percent of the interviewees were aware of their having dental calculus and 46 percent had the impression that they had never had calculus. 24 oercent of those interviewees who presently had calculus or had had calculus stated that they had never had it removed. Generally Finns failed to realize that gingival bleeding is a symptom of gingival inflammation. This point should be made clear in the dental health education of the future.

Nearly 1,300 adult members of a prepaid medical group plan in New York City were screened through automated multiphasic health testing in a series of test stations including a dental station, during 1971-1973. Oral status indicators were developed including a number of missing teeth, scores to measure levels of gingival and periodontal disease, Simplified Oral Hygiene Index scores, and ratios of decayed teeth. Ratios of filled teeth were calculated to measure levels of restorative care. The present paper examines the interrelationships of economic status, education and ethnic origin with each of the above oral status measures. It was found that variations in ratios of decayed and of filled teeth were primarily due to economic status while variations in a number of missing teeth, oral hygiene levels and levels of gingival and periodontal diseases were primarily due to screenees' educational level. Ethnic group differences could be explained in part by differences among these groups in economic and and educational levels. There were no consistent ethnic patterns, however, and while some differences could be explained by controlling for education and economic status, others persisted.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269765"}

The stressors most frequently reported were pressed working conditions, anxiety and frustration deriving from disease, and family problems. Of the symptoms, pain was reported by 78 percent of the patients, clicking by 53 percent, limitation of movement by 44 percent and feeling of stiffness and fatigue of masticatory muscles by 41 percent. Significant correlations were found between a number of variables, of which the close relationship between perceived pressors and muscle groups painful to palpation was considered to be a paramount importance.

Caries experience and oral cleanliness were measured in 1,453 3- and 4-year-old Edinburgh nursery schoolchildren living in areas of multiple urban deprivation and of non-deprivation in the city of Edinburgh. Children with poor oral cleanliness had a mean dmf value of 3.6 teeth compared with 1.6 teeth in those with good oral cleanliness. The greatest relative increases in caries experience were seen in the incisor and canine teeth and upon the occlusal and approximal surfaces. Children living in deprived city areas had a mean dmf value of 3.0 teeth compared with 2.0 teeth in those from non-deprived areas. This difference in caries experience was partially accounted for by the different standards of oral cleanliness found between the deprived and non-deprived areas. In the deprived areas there was a trend towards a high caries experience which was independent of the standard of oral cleanliness. The children were in considerable need of dental care. Only 23 percent of dmf teeth had been either extracted or restored.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269767"}

Bradykinin (0.02-5 microgram) applied to the epicardium of the left ventricle in the open-chest, anaesthetized dog, elicits dose-related reflex pressor effects and acceleration of the heart rate. 2. Bradykinin-induced reflex tachycardia was suppressed after the blockade of beta-adrenoceptors with propranolol, whereas reflex pressor responses were prevented by blocking the alpha-adrenoceptor sites with phenoxybenzamine. 3. Vagotomy and atropine treatment did not affect reflex hypertension and tachycardia to epicardial bradykinin. 4. After spinal section at C1, the pressor responses to epicardial bradykinin were significantly reduced, but still present in all but one experiment. A small acceleration of the heart occurred in two out of five spinal dogs with intact vagi and was absent in three vagotomized spinal dogs. 5. The results indicate the reflex activation of the sympathetic outflow to the heart and blood vessels, mediated mainly at a supraspinal level as a predominant mechanism for the cardiovascular response initiated by bradykinin-induced stimulation of cardiac pain receptors.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269762"}

Five-day diet surveys were obtained, followed by clinical examinations for oral hygiene and caries. One examiner, using mouth mirror, explorer and extraoral light, conducted the caries examination. From the diet surveys, refined and total carbohydrate consumption was calculated per day; between meals, at meals, and totaled for the day. Five-day totals, which included one weekend, were recorded along with frequency of eating per day and for the 5-day periods. Computer analysis revealed no significant correlation between the diet variables and caries or oral hygiene indices and caries.

This survey attempted to determine the status of oral cleanliness and gingival health in 150 dental students and 101 faculty members in a dental school. Without advance notice, plaque deposits were scored, using the Plaque Index System, and gingival health was determined using the criteria of the Gingival Index System. The 1st-year students had the poorest hygiene and gingival health. An improvement (P less than 0.01) was noted in the 2nd-year students who were still not in clinical training but had completed a course in preventive dentistry including oral hygiene techniques. Further improvement (P less than 0.05) was found in students participating in the clinical courses (3rd and 4th years). However, some deterioration of both hygiene and gingival status occurred in the senior 5th year. Among the faculty, the best oral hygiene and gingival state were found in members of departments in which clinical work centered around patient motivation toward prevention and tooth conservation. The scores for plaque and gingivitis were worse in the departments of oral surgery, dental materials, orthodontics and the basic science departments. Almost all departments and every class showed a few individuals with very poor oral hygiene. It is suggested that regular patient contact influences the personal attitude toward oral hygiene, and that professional activity and emphasis on different aspects of the curriculum may be reflected in the attitude of health professionals toward oral health.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269770"}

In this laboratory the Enterobacteriaceae species isolated from these samples were biotyped as well as those isolated from infections that occurred in these patients during treatment. Enterobacteriaceae biotypes isolated for the first time during the isolation phase of the patient indicated a leak in the isolation system. The \"colonizing\" (newly resident) biotypes of Enterobacteriaceae species were found to be more often involved in infections and to be more commonly distributed among the patients in the participating hospitals than the \"contaminating\" (transient) Enterobacteriaceae biotypes. Furthermore, a linear correlation was found between the incidence of gram-negative infections and the number of cases in which these Enterobacteriaceae biotypes colonized the gastro-intestinal tract of patients. The majority of the infections was caused by Enterobacteriaceae biotypes that had settled in the gastro-intestinal tract during treatment and consequently were of nosocomial origin.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269842"}

Thymidylate synthetase (EC 2.1.1.B.) from blast cells of patients with acute myelocytic leukemia has been purified more than 1470-fold by affinity column chromatography. Methotrexate was the affinity ligand. dUMP was found to be a necessary additive for retention of the enzyme by the affinity column. Disc electrophoresis and sucrose density gradient centrifugation revealed a single enzyme species with a molecular weight of 76,000. The enzyme exhibits a temperature-dependent conformational change with activation energies of 5.3 +/- 0.4 and 17.3 +/- 1.9 kcal/mol, respectively, above and below a transitional temperature of 35 degrees. This conformational change is reflected in the binding affinity of dUMP but not of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate. The enzyme displays a broad pH maximum in the range of pH 7.4 to 8.8. The Michaelis constants for dUMP and (+/--L-5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate are 1.8 +/- 0.2 and 31 +/- 8.3 micrometer, respectively. Initial velocity and product inhibition studies reveal the enzymic mechanism to be ordered sequential. dUMP binds before 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate and dihydrofolate is released before TMP. 5-Fluoro-2'-deoxy-5'-uridylate (FdUMP) behaves as in irreversible inhibitor with a Ki of 1.68 +/- 0.45 nM. The enzyme has a turnover number of 6 min-1 per FdUMP binding site. Methotrexate inhibits noncompetitively with respect to dUMP and binds tighter to the enzyme in the presence of dUMP.

It also was found that 53% of all paired permanent control teeth judged cariesfree at the baseline examination were found to be carious, whereas only 30% of the treated teeth examined were carious. The corresponding relative reduction in caries rates was, therefore, 43%. The actual number of teeth estimated to be saved by the sealant treatment at 48 months, as measured by net gain per 100 teeth treated, was 23.

The assay of antibody reactivity by hemadsorption technique was about 10 times more sensitive than any of the cytotoxicity assays. This latter assay measures only IgG antibody however. These assays showed that cell lines from different patients may differ greatly in 'reactivity' to an allogeneic serum and emphasized the importance of utilizing tumor and normal cells from the same patient when using tissue culture cells to search for tumor specific reactivity.

In 3 cases the diagnosis of a fracture could not be definitely established. Exploratory surgery of the orbital floor showed blow-out fractures which needed treatment. These findings were photographed; 5 typical photographs of fractures are presented. Sinuscopy provides a simple and sure method in the diagnosis of blow-out fractures.

All transplants healed without complications and no resorption was found in either the autologous or homologous transplants at the late follow-up examinations. These findings are supported by animal experiments in rabbits with the aid of the polychrome sequence marking technique using fluorochromes.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269893"}

The use of the operating microscope and special microsurgical instruments make it possible to achieve successful anastomosis of blood vessels of less than 1 mm in diameter. Microvascular surgery offers newer possibilities in the transplantation of dermisfat grafts, and has led to an unusually high degree of success in the reimplantation of tissues. This paper describes a technique for microvascular anastomosis in animal experiment, using as a model the reimplantation of a completely amputated rabbit ear. In 10 amputated rabbit ears, the central auricular artery with a diameter of 0.5 mm and the two marginal auricular veins with diameter of 0.5-1.0 mm were microsurgically anastomosed. Of the 10 reimplanted ears, 8 survived. The postoperative angiogram showed an unrestricted patency of all the vessels.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269894"}

It is concluded that in the tooth treated by mortal extirpation there was neither histological healing nor any tendency for further apex formation. In both the tooth where vital extirpation was performed and in one of the teeth treated as apical periodontitis, the apices were formed from conglomerates of different calcified tissues, identical to the tissue which was formed under comparable conditions in experimental dogs. In the fourth human tooth also treated as apical periodontitis after treatment the apical opening closed with irregular dentine tissue.

Fifty-six neonatally thymectomized and 41 neonatally sham-operated female golden hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus) were divided into 2 groups, one inoculated with Actinomyces (N16) and the other not inoculated. All animals were raised and maintained on a high sucrose, soft diet (Diet 2000) and water, ad libitum. White blood cell counts, differentials and total lymphocyte counts were determined at 4 to 5 weeks of age. The rejection of albino hamster skin grafts and the hemagglutination response to sheep red blood cells (SRBC) were used to determine inhibition of T lymphocyte function. Evaluation of alveolar bone loss at the end of 160 days indicated that the thymectomized animals with a significant depression of the hemagglutination response to SRBC and a lack of skin graft rejections had a significantly higher bone loss than sham-operated animals. This suggests that the cellular immune response plays a role in the periodontal syndrome in hamsters. Further investigation is necessary to establish how significant this role is in relationship to the numerous other factors that are present. These data suggest that the role of the cellular immune response in the hamster periodontium may be protective rather than destructive.

The amount and percentage of fluoride released from amalgam were less for the 1:1.6 alloy/mercury ratio than for the 1:1 ratio. 2. Higher fluoride concentrations resulted in a greater quantity but lower percentage of fluoride released from the amalgam. 3. Longer immersion times resulted in a greater amounts and percentages of released fluoride. However, the fluoride released per hour decreased with immersion time. 4. Immersion of the amalgam in lactic acid caused a greater release of fluoride than immersion in distilled water. 5. Disintegration of the amalgam was greater in lactic acid than in distilled water. The contribution of calcium fluoride to weight loss was greater in water than in lactic acid, indicating a corrosive effect for lactic acid. 6. The higher calcium fluoride content (2 per cent) decreased the compressive strength of the amalgam but did not alter the dimensional change.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269951"}

An anatomic and clinical investigation of condylar remodeling; the position of the condyle in centric occlusion; and the relationships of these two factors to each other and to the features of the dentition are reported. Two groups of 100 adult crania were examined. The first group had complete or partially edentulous arches. In the second group, the dentition was complete and there were various degrees of abrasion. In addition, clinical and tomographic data were obtained from 70 patients with temporomandibular joint pain-dysfunction syndrome. Occlusion was also studied by intraoral registration of the gothic arch and by mounting the casts on an articulator in 40 patients. Comparison of the data made it clear that occlusal conditions determine the course of condylar remodeling and lead to marked changes in shape of the joints. Occlusal disorders are also responsible for condylar displacement (noted in 51.4 per cent of patients), which, in turn, may be the cause of typical reshaping of the joint. These findings cast doubt on the proposition that the gnathologic determinants (particularly centric relation) are never changed in the course of time.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/269953"}

Soft tissue masses, unlike bone tumors, most commonly look alike. They too require biopsy, but in this case to distinguish a benign mass from a soft tissue sarcoma.

The material was grouped according to early loss of primary molars and a comparison was made between children with and without early losses. Early loss was defined as follows: 1. extraction of the first primary molar between 7 1/2 and 9 1/2 years and/or extraction of the second primary molar between 7 1/2 and 10 1/2 years; 2. extraction of the first and/or second primary molar before 7 1/2 years of age. The following variables were studied: space conditions, dental stage for groups of teeth, eruption stage of single teeth. For the incisors the clinical crown length (CCL) was used as a measure of the eruption stage. The results showed that there was a tendency to later eruption and later onset of dental stages in cases without early losses when a comparison was made with investigations where this factor had not been taken into consideration. The second permanent molar erupted earlier in both jaws after early loss of the second primary molar. Children with loss of primary molars before 7 1/2 years developed more crowding than children without losses and losses after 7 1/2 years had little effect on the relative space.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270272"}

The dimensional changes of dental amalgams during setting was evaluated using different methods of specimen production, and measurement procedures. Amalgam specimens were prepared from 10 commercially available dental amalgam alloys by mechanical condensation. Dimensional change was measured on microcators with a measuring load of 1 g. The variation in dimensional change with trituration was substantial, and similar to the difference between various brands of alloys at the same trituration time. Porosity seems to vary between 0.1 and 0.6% independent of severity of trituration except for two alloys in which increased trituration time seemed to reduce porosity. It was therefore pointed out that even though trituration in most cases can be altered to make an amalgam expand, such procedures should not be followed since optimal values of other clinically significant properties may not be maintained.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270274"}

The purpose of the study was to test the retention of metallic implants in bone tissue for evaluation of early facial growth patterns in patients with craniofacial malformations. Implants were inserted in 51 patients (age range: 1-17 months) with different diagnoses, the majority of them with various types of cleft lip and/or palate. Seven positions in the maxilla and four in the mandible were employed. Roentgencephalometric follow-up examinations were carried out at various stages up to the age of about three years. The results indicated that the frequency of implants firmly retained within the bone decreased with time depending on the craniofacial deformity and the implant sites. Stability seemed most critical in positions close to the alveolar processes where more than one-half of the implants inserted were dislocated or lost at the three-year follow-up. For the maxillary implants the patients with bilateral cleft lip and palate displayed the highest failure rate. This investigation did not support continuation of the implant method in infants as used in the present study.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270275"}

A review of 88 cases from the literature with personal observations on 3 new patients is given of the syndrome featured by juvenile diabetes mellitus, optic atrophy, hearing loss, diabetes insipidus, atonia of the urinary tract and bladder and other abnormalities. The postmortem in one of our cases is mentioned. The pattern of inheritance is autosomal recessive. The interpretation of the data on diabetes insipidus from the literature and in our three patients is also discussed. It can only be stated that neurohypophyseal diabetes insipidus can be a component of the syndrome and that in many cases--particularly in the presence of lesions of the efferent urinary tract--the possibility of nephrogenous diabetes insipidus can not be excluded with certainty. It seems probable that the same mechanism can be held responsible for the lesions of the olfactory, optic, vestibular and cochlear nerves, the hypophyseal form of diabetes insipidus, retarded sexual maturation, abnormal pupillary reaction, myelopathy and the electro-encephalographic, electroneurological and electromyographic changes in the Wolfram syndrome.

This permits a semiautomatic assembly of the unit, which reduces production costs. Furthermore this technique facilitates aseptic handling of the item.

Biostereometrics is an accurate anthropometric system for quantifying geometric changes of facial form and the relationship of features as they are influenced by growth and by surgery. Facial features distant from the site of surgical intervention are influenced in their geometric relationship to each other by changes in the soft-tissue drape brought about by manipulation of skeletal tissues. The most accurate coordinate system should be elsewhere than on the surface of the face, but if this is not possible it should be in an area farthest removed from the surgical site. This investigation demonstrates that a usable coordinate transformation system can be created by connecting points supernasale and subnasale for establishing the Y Z plane and the construction of the X Z plane at subnasale. Accurate comparative numerical measurements can be made by using soft-tissue landmarks.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270285"}

Class I malocclusions with normal maxillary dentition and good buccal interdigitation in which there is severe lower anterior crowding are the best cases for this procedure, provided that the lower anterior arch length deficiency is greater than 4 to 5 mm. and the anterior tooth ratio is more than 83 mm. In conditions exhibiting a deep overbite pattern, reduction of the mandibular anterior unit should be avoided. Furthermore, I do not regard mandibular incisor extraction as a routine orthodontic procedure but, instead, consider it to be an almost last resort measure since it involves the most important stabilizing area of occlusion.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270288"}

The APo plane adequately serves as a guide to this purpose, whereas other reference lines such as mandibular plane or facial plane do not. 3) The positions of the incisors with respect to popular cephalometric reference lines such as APo, NB, or mandibular plane were not correlated with the relapse of mandibular crowding.

Seeking of attention appears to be intimately bound up with certain principles of motivation, especially the seeking of observable results of action and of optimum levels of stimulation, variety and challenge, and the relationship between results and the cost of achieving them--a high cost will tend to inhibit action but enhance the value subsequently placed upon what is achieved. These principles can be applied to personal relationships: thus friendship can be regarded as a situation involving facilitative feedback between persons, hostility as involving inhibitory feedback and lonliness as occurring when there is no feedback. Which of these situations occurs appears to depend upon the relationships between the costs and benefits of interaction between the persons concerned. The care of psychiatric or senile patients in the community appears likely to impose demands for attention which are unreasonably severe (\"costly\"). Any attempt to change community attitudes in the hope of securing greater acceptance of such demands appears to be unrealistic. Substantial benefits could probably be attained in many cases from training in skills, especially social skills, which would enable patients to cope more effectively with the world as it is.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270332"}

Labelling human myeloblasts with 125IUdR for survival studies in mice. The compound (125)IUdR can be incorporated in a stable form into the DNA of cells. The isotope is released if labelled cells or their progeny die. Consequently the rate of (125)I excretion from mice can be used to follow the fate of labelled cells in vivo. Using these principles we show:(1) Sufficient label can be incorporated in vitro into both fresh and cryopreserved human leukaemic myeloblasts, in non-toxic concentrations, to allow their survival in mice to be estimated by whole-body counting;(2) The release of isotope from labelled cells is sufficiently slow to offer reasonable expectation that this technique can be used for assessing the sensitivity of myeloblasts to cytotoxic agents in vivo (an application described in the second paper in this series, Sonis, Falcão and MacLennon, 1977);(3) The rate of (125)Iexcretion from mice injected with myeloblasts from different donors varies. This probably reflects different rates of spontaneous death of injected myeloblasts;(4) Active rejection of myeloblasts starts within 48 h of their injection into mice;(5) Indirect evidence that phagocytic cells may be active agents in myeloblast destruction in mice;(6) Various methods of immunologically depriving mice were assessed to see if they would result in a useful increase in survival of injected human myeloblasts. We conclude that there is little advantage and some limitations in using mice thus deprived;(7) One of the agents used for immunological deprivation-silica powder-markedly decreased the rate of (125)I loss from mice injected with labelled killed myeloblasts. This experience emphasizes the importance of including the killed-cell control in this assay.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270372"}

The toxic effects of cytosine arabinoside on 125IUdR-labelled human leukaemic myeloblasts in mice. Leukaemia cells from the peripheral blood and bone marrow of patients with acute myeloblastic leukaemia were labelled in vitro with [125I]5-iodo-2'-deoxy-uridine (IUdR). The myeloblasts were then injected into groups of mice and the survival of these cells estimated by measuring isotope loss, using whole-body counting. The isotope excretion from mice treated with various doses of cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) and those not treated with drugs were compared. This comparison showed that the sensitivity of myeloblasts to the drug varies from patient to patient, and in one case was different for myeloblasts from bone marrow and from blood from the same patient. We compare the clinical responses of myeloblasts to Ara-C in 6 patients, who had high peripheral blood myeloblast counts, with the sensitivities of their myeloblasts to Ara-C in mice. This comparison indicates that the assay might be a useful way of predicting the response of leukaemic cells in patients to cytotoxic agents.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270373"}

A simple and reproducible method for separating Y-bearing spermatozoa from human semen is reported.  Semen samples with 60-80 million count and 50% motility were obtained from healthy human donors.  Ficoll-400 and sodium metrizoate density gradient were used for separation.  Quinacrine hydrochloride was used for staining, and Olympus fluorescent microscopy was used for the detection of F body present in the spermatozoa bearing Y-chromosomes.  The data indicate that the percentage of Y-bearing spermatozoa in normal human semen is about 5-6% less than what is expected.  The observations agree with those of Barlow and Vosa that with the optical attenuation coefficient being sufficiently great, the chromosomes lying deep in the head may go undetected.  A mean value of 45.22 was obtained for Y-bearing spermatozoa and the sediment contained about 62.9 Y-bearing spermatozoa.  The results thus suggest that it is possible to separate Y-bearing spermatozoa from semen using Ficoll-socium metrizoate density gradient.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270461"}

One of the most difficult problems met with in endodontic therapy for children is the traumatized anterior tooth whose root is still incomplete. In cases where the pulp is vital, treatment by pulp capping or pulpotomy is directed to preserving the vitality of the radicular pulp to ensure completion of root formation. Calcium hydroxide remains the material of choice in both forms of treatment. Once root formation is complete, removal of the pulp residue and filling of the root canal may be performed as a preliminary to restoration by means of a post retained crown. Where the pulp is non vital, attempts to fill the funnel shaped apical part of the canal, whether from a coronal approach or by open operation for retrograde filling, have proved unsatisfactory. Many workers have shown however that a number of root filling materials and root dressings are capable of inducing either continued root growth or a closure of the apical region by a calcific scar. A detailed survey of 34 teeth treated by this method has been made and the important principles which appear to influence the success of the technique are enumerated.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270463"}

Data available to WHO shows that the profile of oral diseases differs dramatically between the technically advanced and the developing countries. In technically advanced countries the high tooth mortality due to caries is decreasing as a result of widespread dental care, though the incidence of the disease is little affected. Unless preventive measures can be applied the cost of maintaining curative services will outstrip the financial resources of even the most prosperous countries. In the developing countries where manpower is scarce the traditionally low prevalence of caries is tending to increase with progressive urbanization. Preventive measures are therefore vitally important and there is urgent need for field testing in these conditions. In both cases the development of preventive measures against periodontal disease is essential if teeth saved from loss by caries are not to be lost in later decades from the ravages of periodontal breakdown.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270464"}

Experimental studies on the formation of pellicles and plaque are described as examples of the use of clinical trials to bridge the gap between basic research and epidemiological data. The ideal model for dental research would involve the identification of a clinical problem and its subdivision into small biological units which could be studied in the laboratory in order to develop working hypothesis.

Since one concern of a healing profession is to alleviate or minimize pain it would be helpful if some means of assessment of the intensity of pain experienced by other persons were available.

Unfortunately dental education in developing countries is being modelled on the same pattern even though this is totally irrelevant to local needs and resources. The greatest need is for health  education designed to influence the lifestyle of people in a way which will reduce the prevalence of dental disease.

A report prepared by a Working Group of the Commission on Classification and Statistics for Oral Conditions. The vital statistics collected by the national and international registries and organizations include information on oral cancer. As their work proceeds and the accumulated information increases and probably also becomes progressively more reliable because of increasing accuracy in clinical diagnosis and death certification, the purpose of epidemiological research, that is, the identification of etiological factors, will come nearer to fulfilment. On the other hand, very little is known about the epidemiology and demography odontogenic tumours. Although these tumours are relatively uncommon they are of considerable practical and theoretical importance to dentists, oral surgeons and pathologists. Since workers in the oral field are especially concerned with these lesions they are in a particularly favourable situation to collate data. Although a lengthy period would be required to amass significant numbers of cases, the effect would be well worth while.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270468"}

In all cases the lesion involved the shaft of a long bone, most often the femur, and in two cases two different long bones were affected. Six of the seven patients were male and all were in the second decade. The characteristic appearance was that of a small tumour adjacent to the cortex with areas of spotty calcification often accompanied by radiating bone spicules perpendicular to the bone shaft and a typical Codman's triangle. Histologically all the tumours showed a cartilaginous lobular pattern, well limited on the surface and seldom infiltrating the cortex; areas of spotty calcification and enchondral ossification were often present but tumour osteoid and bone were conspicuously absent. Despite the ominous histological aspect, the prognosis proved to be relatively favourable compared with the usual central chondrosarcoma of a similar grade of malignancy.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270475"}

The concentration of virus in the various vaccines differed by both the international unitage test and by the concentration of haemagglutinin, as measured by the single radial diffusion test; the results of the two methods of standardization showed no correlation. The serum HI response to immunization was variable; volunteers given A/England/72 showed a 16.6-fold increase in homologous serum antibody titre whilst volunteers given A/Hong Kong/68 vaccine showed a 4.2-fold increase. The variable response of volunteers to immunization could not be explained by the varied concentration of virus in the vaccines, as measured by either test, the titres of serum HI antibody present before immunization, or a combination of these two factors.The ability to infect volunteers with WRL 105 virus 4 weeks after immunization with heterologous, inactivated virus vaccine was directly related to the degree of cross-reactivity between the haemagglutinins of this vaccine virus and WRL 105 virus. Thus, the greatest number of infections by the challenge virus were seen in volunteers given A/Hong Kong/68 vaccine, less were observed in volunteers given A/England/72 vaccine, and least were found in groups given A/Port Chalmers/73 or A/Scotland/74 vaccine.

In 1970, the mortality rate amongst wild rabbits was 59%, in 1974 it was 17%, and in 1976 it was 20%, thus showing that a considerable degree of inherited resistance to myxomatosis has developed.The types of myxoma virus most commonly isolated from wild rabbits in Great Britain in recent years have been those which cause 70-95% mortality in laboratory rabbits. Therefore, if the degree of innate resistance demonstrated is widespread in Great Britain, there are serious implications regarding the size of the rabbit population, because myxomatosis has been an important factor in holding rabbit numbers at a relatively low level.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270526"}

Skin scales may be attracted onto the surface of administration set connector needles before insertion into infusion containers. Viable microorganisms associated with skin scales may therefore gain access to the infusion by this route. A technique is described for creating an environment of airborne skin scales. This environment is used to examine the attraction of skin scales onto the surface of administration set connector needles and three other materials. After exposure, skin scales are found adhering to the surface of each material examined. The attraction of skin scales onto administration set connector needles is dependent on the time of exposure to the environment. Results suggest that intravenous infusions can be contaminated by this route when the infusion and administration set is assembled.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270527"}

The results suggest that muscular group IV and group III afferent units which respond to the above painful stimulation project into the SCT. The portion of SCT units that could be activated by injections of these algesic substances into the GS-muscle was different in spinal and decerebrate preparations, showing that the SCT neurones are subject to a descending influence.

Previous workers have suggested that the development of thrombocytopenia with a hypoplastic marrow following total lymphoid irradiation indicated recurrent Hodgkin's disease. When the combination cytopenias and hypoplastic marrow is recognized these workers have recommended early combination chemotherapy. Recent data suggest a 1300-fold increase in the risk of AML following multimodality therapy for Hodgkin's disease.

Agreement between the calculated and observed fraction of bends was found for 26 dipeptides, suggesting that, for those particular dipeptide sequences, local interactions dominate over long-range interactions in determining conformational preference. Seven dipeptide sequences, all of which contained a Gly residue, had a significantly higher calculated than observed bend preference, indicating the strong influence of long-range and/or solvent interactions in those sequences. Of the 14 sequences for which the calculated was significantly less than the observed bend fraction, 13 dipeptide sequences contained at least one polar residue (Ser, Asn, or Asp) and/or an aromatic residue (Phe or Tyr), suggesting that solvent effects may play an important role in dictating the conformation in these sequences. The analysis of dipeptide sequences in the twenty globular proteins also indicated that the 4 leads to 1 hydrogen bond is not a dominant factor in stabilizing bends in proteins, and that most dipeptide sequences are capable of forming several types of bend conformations.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270658"}

Oxygen isotherms of human hemoglobin measured in distilled water and in solutions of sodium chloride in the concentration range from 0.02 to 3.0 M indicate that the oxygen affinity decreases up to about 1 M salt and then begins to increase. The isotherms obtained in the range from 0.02 to 0.6 M sodium chloride, at 37 degrees and pH 7.4, have been analyzed in terms of changes in Gibbs free energy of heme ligation, resulting from the differential interaction between the chloride ion and the two forms of hemoglobin. The maximal theoretical change in Gibbs free energy that chloride ion can exert on the oxygen binding of hemoglobin amounts to 4.9 +/- 0.2 kcal/mol (21 +/- 0.8 kJ/mol) of hemoglobin tetramer. A plot of the logarithm of oxygen concentration at half saturation versus the logarithm of the chloride concentration has a slope of 0.40, suggesting 1.6 apparent chloride sites per hemoglobin tetramer. Because the interaction between chloride and hemoglobin is dependent on pH, the apparent thermodynamic linkage between chloride and oxygen binding will also include the salt dependence of the Bohr effect at pH 7.4. The fractional change in Gibbs free energy, measured as a function of the chloride concentration, can be approximated by the binding isotherm between a protein and a ligand, using an association constant of 11 M(-1). Thus, if the number of oxygen-linked chloride sites is more than one per hemoglobin tetramer, these sites must be considered independent.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270660"}

Multimer rings do not arise after transfection of purified monomers into bacterial host cells lacking a functional recA recombination system. Analogously, purified dimers, trimers, and tetramers, transfected into recA- cells, can replicate, but are constrained to remain in those conformations. Only upon transfection into rec+ cells can they regenerate the full spectrum of monomer- and multimer-size species. In this paper we trace the flow of genetic information from the monomer to the multimer state and back again under the guidance of the recA recombination system.

Such complexes have been isolated during in vivo progeny phiX174 DNA synthesis [Fujisawa, H. & Hayashi, M. (1976) J. Vriol. 19,409].

Previous studies have shown that sialidase-treated mammalian erythrocytes were rapidly eliminated from circulation. In contrast, chicken asialoerythrocytes remained fully viable. This investigation was undertaken to ascertain the reason for this difference in behavior as well as to determine the extent of the similarity of the physiological mechanism for the elimination from circulation of asialoglycoproteins and mammalian asialoerythrocytes. To that end, erythrocytes from dogs, rabbits, and chickens were each subjected to the action of galactose oxidase (D-galactose:oxygen 6-oxidoreductase; EC 1.1.3.9) both before and after sialidase (acylneuraminyl hydrolase; EC 3.2.1.18) treatment. The viability of the autologously transfused erythrocytes in circulation was monitored by Na2-51CrO4 labeling. Galactose oxidase had no deleterious effect on the viability of dog or chicken erythrocytes, nor did it restore the viability of dog or rabbit asialoerythrocytes. On the other hand, desialated chicken erythrocytes, which were fully viable, were rendered nonviable upon treatment with galactose oxidase. It may be concluded therefore that (a) the physiological mechanism of elimination of mammalian asialoerythrocytes from circulation is not the same as that for plasma asialoglycoproteins and (b) the treatment of chicken asialoerythrocytes with galactose oxidase results in the oxidation at carbons 6 of the galactosyl- or N-acetylgalactosaminyl residues, thereby rendering the erythrocytes nonviable.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270664"}

One feature of fertilization is the alteration of the vitelline layer, by components released from the egg, to produce an elevated, covalently crosslinked, hard, insoluble, fertilization membrane. The following evidence indicates that crosslinking and hardening are caused by the production of diand trityrosyl residues, by oxidation of protein-bound tyrosyl residues in the presence of a peroxidase. Hardening of the fertilization membrane, as evidenced by its loss of solubility in 50 mM dithiothreitol, is inhibited by compounds known to inhibit many peroxidases. A peroxidase, here called the ovoperoxidase, is released from eggs at fertilization. This enzyme is inhibited by the same compounds that inhibit hardening and at similar concentrations. Inhibitors of the ovoperoxidase and the hardening reaction include KCN, 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole, NaN(3), phenylhydrazine, K(4)Fe(CN)(6), sodium sulfite, and glycine ethyl ester. In addition, tyramine and N-acetyltyrosine both inhibit hardening, but O-methyltyrosine does not. Dityrosyl and trityrosyl residues are found in acid hydrolysates of isolated, hardened fertilization membranes. These residues have been identified by cellulose phosphate column chromatography, thin-layer chromatography, and amino acid analysis. The amino acid data have been used to estimate that there is one dityrosine crosslink per 55,000 daltons of protein. We suggest that, by catalyzing the crosslinking of tyrosyl residues, the ovoperoxidase leads to the production of a hard fertilization membrane that blocks the entry of additional sperm. Because peroxidases are spermicidal, a secondary function of the enzyme could be to kill sperm in the vicinity of the fertilized egg.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270665"}

Divalent cationophore A23187 stimulates prostaglandin and thromboxane production by washed human platelets in a concentration-dependent manner (0.3-9 muM). A23187 also induces an antimycin A-insensitive burst in oxygen utilization which is partially blocked by 5 mM aspirin or 10 muM indomethacin. Under our conditions, A23187 (up to 10 muM) does not appear to damage platelet membranes since it does not cause appreciable loss of lactate dehydrogenase or beta-glucuronidase. Mono- and divalent cationophore X537A also stimulates platelet thromboxane B(2) production and oxygen utilization, but monovalent cationophores nigericin, monensin A, A204, and valinomycin have no effect. The synthesis of prostaglandins E(2), D(2), and F(2alpha) by rat renal medulla mince is stimulated by 1 and 5 muM A23187 without changes in tissue ATP content, lactate output, or K(+) efflux. X537A, monensin A, and nigericin (all 5 muM) stimulate both prostaglandin output and K(+) efflux from renal medulla, while 5 muM valinomycin or A204 has no effect on either. None of the ionophores stimulates renomedullary prostaglandin production if calcium is omitted from the incubation medium. A23187 also stimulates prostaglandin production by human lymphoma cells, rat stomach and trachea preparations, and guinea pig polymorphonuclear leukocytes.

When these cells are transferred from medium containing normal animal serum (with 1.8 mug of thyroxine per dl) to a medium containing serum from a thyroidectomized calf, \"hypothyroid medium\" (with no detectable thyroid hormone), growth hormone production decreases markedly. In cells maintained for 5 days in hypothyroid medium, triiodothyronine induces within 50 hr a 17-fold increase in growth hormone production whereas glucocorticoids, during the same time, produce a negligible (3-fold or less) stimulation. In combination, the two hormones promote a 45-fold stimulation. In all instances the changes in growth hormone production are paralleled by changes in the levels of growth hormone mRNA as measured by cell-free translation. The transfer to hypothyroid medium and the hormonal induction do not affect the relative activities of other mRNAs whose products are detectable on polyacrylamide gels. These studies indicate that thyroid hormone can be an activator of the expression of the growth hormone gene. The results also show that triiodothyronine controls the magnitude of the effect of glucocorticoids on growth hormone mRNA, and provide a model for \"permissive\" triiodothyronine action.

(1976) Biochemistry 15, 4681-4686]. Until now, the biochemical basis of human alcohol metabolism had to be extrapolated from the properties and behavior of enzymes from other species, primarily horses and yeast. The biological determinants of human alcoholism have remained obscure, although recent evidence indicates a genetic predisposition, requiring delineation. A functionally distinct form of human liver alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), which we have designated II-ADH, is provocative since, thus far, it seems to be unique to human beings. It has a high K(m) for ethanol and is remarkably insensitive (apparent K(I), 500 muM) to pyrazole and its derivatives, which are usually potent ADH inhibitors (K(I), 1 muM), a property that is the basis for the isolation of II-ADH. The affinity resin 4-[3-(N-6-aminocaproyl)aminopropyl]pyrazole-Sepharose binds all other known forms of ADH but not II-ADH, thereby separating it selectively by affinity chromatography. In turn, this has led to the establishment of its identity with that enzyme form which was previously known as the anodic band and characterized by a high K(m) for ethanol (20 mM at pH 7.5). The remarkable insensitivity of II-ADH to pyrazole inhibition has also permitted quantitation of its role in hepatic ethanol oxidation. At 5 mM ethanol, a saturating concentration for virtually all other forms of ADH, II-ADH contributes less than 15% to total ethanol oxidation. However, at intoxicating concentrations, e.g., 60 mM, it can account for as much as 40% of the total ethanol oxidation rate of liver, indicating a seemingly unique role for this enzyme form in ethanol elimination. Thus far, we have found the amount of II-ADH varies from liver to liver of individuals and is considerably more labile than the other molecular forms, phenomena whose inter- or independence requires further study. The isolation of human II-ADH advances efforts to recognize and understand biochemical mechanisms that may be biological determinants of alcoholism and alcohol-related disease states, now generally approached and managed largely as psychosocial disorders.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270680"}

Long and short repetitive sequences of rat DNA can be isolated and characterized.

(Cot is the initial concentration of DNA in mol of nucleotides/liter multiplied by time in sec.) Long repetitive DNA can be driven by an excess of whole rat DNA can also be used to drive tracer quantities of either long (self-renaturation) or short repetitive DNA. Both the extent and the rate of the renaturations are found to be similar, suggesting that long and short DNA fragments share sequences. When long repetitive DNA is used to drive whole DNA tracers of various lengths, a 3.2-kb interspersion period is found. These data are consistent with the concept that short repetitive sequences are present within long repetitive DNA sequences in the rat genome.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270681"}

A sequence of 221 nucleotides consisting of the Escherichia coli trp promoter, operator, and leader was found to contain two strong dyad symmetries.

These two oligosaccharide-lipids were purified and added to fresh microsomal preparations. In comparative studies, we find that the glucose-containing lipid-linked oligosaccharide is transferred much more rapidly to endogenous protein acceptors than the glucose-free compound. With materials of comparable specific activities, as much as 41% of the glucose-containing oligosaccharide was transferred to protein as compared to 5% for the glucose-free compound.

The data demonstrate that on induction with poly(I-poly(C) human fibroblasts accumulate interferon mRNA for 1-1.5 hr, after which time the mRNA is rapidly degraded with a half-life (t 1/2) of 18 min. Treatment of cells with cycloheximide prolongs the period of accumulation to 3 hr and decreases the rate of mRNA inactivation (t 1/2 = 49 min). Treatment with actinomycin D decreases the rate of inactivation still further (t 1/2 = 68 min). A comparison of cellular interferon synthesis with the relative amounts of interferon m RNA after simple induction or inductionin the presence of the inhibitors (superinduction) indicated a general correlation.

At high density and in the presence of ascorbate, they are fully stabilized in that they devote 25-30% of their total protein synthesis to collagen, a level comparable to that in tendon cells in ovo. However, either at low density or in medium without ascorbate, they synthesize collagen at only a third of this level. If plated on a collagen matrix, these cells will orient themselves in a manner similar to that of tendon cells in vivo. Furthermore, they are capable of fully modulating the percentage of collagen synthesis upon addition or removal of ascorbate and serum. The variation in the percentage of collagen produced is a result of alterations in collagen synthesis rather than of changes in total protein synthesis or hydroxylation of proline in collagen. Primary avian tendon cells, therefore, provide a suitable model for understanding the stability of the differentiated state, the mechanism of action of ascorbate, and the regulation of collagen biosynthesis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270689"}

The cells on floating collagen membranes in medium containing insulin alone have sparse secretory organelles, and a small amount of casein can be detected in these cells with a sensitive radioimmunoassay. These cells resemble counterpart cells in early-pregnant mice. When the cells are exposed to insulin, cortisol, and prolactin, the secretory apparatus is elaborated and significant increases in intracellular and extracellular casein are observed. In this environment, the intracellular casein content is generally four to eight times greater than in freshly dissociated cells or cells cultured in insulin alone. The amount of casein secreted into the medium by floating-collagen-membrane cultures in the three hormones is from 25 to 200 times greater than that secreted by cultures in insulin alone.

The cultured neurons of both brain regions showed normal maturation of axons and dendrites and formed ultrastructurally defined synaptic contacts. Fluorescence microscopy of cultured neurons from both brain regions showed typical in situ cytological features: long axonal processes with multiple varicosities for locus ceruleus cultures, and smooth, wispy nonvaricose processes in the substantia nigra cultures.

Serum contains a growth factor derived from platelets and also growth factors derived from platelet-poor plasma. Extracts of heated (100 degrees ) human platelets function synergistically with platelet-poor plasma to induce DNA synthesis in quiescent, density-inhibited BALB/c 3T3 cells. Platelet-poor plasma alone did not induce DNA synthesis. Cells exposed to platelet extracts became competent to enter the cell cycle, but the rate of entry into the S phase depended upon the concentration of platelet-poor plasma. The time required for the induction of this competent state was a function of the concentration of the platelet extract. A 2-hr exposure to 100 mug of the platelet extract at 37 degrees caused the entire cell population to become competent to enter the S phase. At 4 degrees or 25 degrees the cells did not become competent to synthesize DNA. The platelet extract-induced competent state was stable for at least 13 hr after removal of the platelet extract; however, in the absence of platelet-poor plasma, these competent cells did not progress through the cell cycle. The addition of an optimal concentration of platelet-poor plasma (5%) to these competent cells initiated cell cycle traverse with a rapid, first-order entry of cells into the S phase beginning 12 hr after addition of the plasma. The addition of a suboptimal concentration of the plasma (0.25%) did not increase the rate of cell entry into the S phase. Thus, the induction of DNA synthesis in quiescent BALB/c 3T3 cells can be resolved into at least two phases, controlled by different serum components: (i) competence, induced by the platelet-derived growth factor; and (ii) progression of competent cells into the cell cycle, mediated by factors in platelet-poor plasma.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270695"}

Neurites regularly penetrated the barriers if a high concentration of nerve growth factor was present on both sides, but never penetrated into chambers to which no nerve growth factor had been added. After neurites crossed the barrier, local removal of nerve growth factor from the distal portions of the neurites caused the growth of these portions to stop, and they eventually appeared to degenerate even though nerve growth factor was continuously present in the chamber that contained their somas and proximal portions. In contrast, local nerve growth factor was not required at the somas and proximal portions of the neurites; many neurons survived its withdrawal provided their somas were associated with neurite bundles that crossed into a chamber containing nerve growth factor. These results show that the growth, and probably the survival, of neurites depends upon nerve growth factor in their local environment, regardless of the nerve growth factor concentrations to which other portions of the neuron are exposed.

One mechanism by which high-molecular-weight kininogen acts as a cofactor has been studied by using 125I-labeled Factor XI and prekallikrein in kaolin-activated normal human plasma and plasmas deficient in high-molecular-weight kininogen and Hageman factor. High-molecular-weight kininogen was found to be essential for normal binding and cleavage of both Factor XI and prekallikrein on the kaolin surface. Hageman factor was essential for cleavage but not for binding of Factor XI and prekallikrein to kaolin. In normal plasma 80% of the activated Factor XI remained surface-bound, whereas 80% of the kallikrein was not surface-bound. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that, in the initial phase of contact activation, high-molecular-weight kininogen links both Factor XI and prekallikrein to the exposed surface where they are activated by surface-bound activated Hageman factor.

Succinylacetone and succinylacetoacetate presumably originate from maleylacetoacetate or fumarylacetoacetate, or both, and their accumulation indicates a block at the fumarylacetoacetase (EC 3.7.1.2) step in the degradation of tyrosine. We suggest that the severe liver and kidney damage in hereditary tyrosinemia may be due to the accumulation of these tyrosine metabolites and that the primary enzyme defect in hereditary tyrosinemia may be decreased activity of fumarylacetoacetase.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270706"}

The amino acid sequence of the 78 residues of apoC-II has recently been established in this laboratory. To determine the minimal sequence requirements for activation, we have prepared both native and synthetic fragments of apoC-II and tested them for their ability to activate LPL. Cyanogen bromide fragments of apoC-II corresponding to residues 1--9 and 10--59 had little ability to activate LPL. However, the COOH-terminal cyanogen bromide fragment corresponding to residues 60--78 increased hydrolysis 4-fold compared to an average of 9-fold activation for the same concentration of apoC-II. The synthetic peptide containing residues 60--78 prepared by solid-phase techniques enhanced the lipolysis 3-fold. Addition of five residues produced a synthetic fragment 55--78 that enhanced the release of fatty acid 12-fold compared to 13-fold for intact apoC-II. By contrast, the synthetic peptide containing residues 66--78 did not activate. Removal of the three COOH-terminal residues, Gly-Glu-Glu, from fragment 60--78 decreased the ability to activate LPL by greater than 95%.

Doughnuts were not observed for single-stranded DNA-H1 complexes; instead, the complexes were globular. The circumference of the doughnutshaped particles indicates that much of the rigidity of duplex DNA in the complex has remained. Evidently, the condensation of the nucleohistone is constrained by the rigidity of duplex DNA and, under this constraint, surface contact with water is minimized by adopting a doughnut shape. Histone H5 causes a type of DNA condensation similar to that of H1 at comparable charge ratios. Core histones H2A-H2b, H3, and H4 complex with DNA to form globular aggregates of such small diameter that the duplex DNA in them must be much more tightly folded than is the case with the doughnut-shaped complexes.

Various serine proteases (e.g., trypsin, alpha-chymotrypsin, Pronase, and subtilisin) stimulate adenylate cyclase [ATP pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing), EC 4.6.1.1] activity in a membrane-enriched fraction of the rat ovary. Maximum stimulation is observed at protease concentrations ranging from 3 to 10 mug/ml. Higher protease concentrations inhibit ovarian adenylate cyclase in a dose-dependent manner. Protease stimulation causes a 6- to 8-fold increase in adenylate cyclase activity, which is comparable to the stimulation observed with human chorionic gonadotropin. Combinations of trypsin plus hormone or trypsin plus NaF stimulate ovarian adenylate cyclase activity to a greater extent than does any one of these alone. The mechanism of protease stimulation of adenylate cyclase involves limited proteolysis because zymogen precursors fail to activate the cyclase as does trypsin pretreated with trypsin inhibitors. Unlike cholera toxin, the serine protease stimulation is immediate (within the first 5 min) and requires no additional factors (e.g., NAD(+)). It is unlikely that protease stimulation of adenylate cyclase results from a proteolytic modification of the hormone receptor on the cell surface, because of the additive effects noted above and because protease stimulation is also observed in ovaries desensitized to hormone that lack this hormone receptor. Results with Lubrol-treated membranes also suggest that proteolytic enzymes do not directly activate the catalytic subunit of the cyclase or unmask new catalytic sites because the protease effect (like hormonal stimulation) is abolished by the detergent, whereas fluoride stimulation is enhanced. Other data suggest that serine protease and chorionic gonadotropin stimulation of adenylate cyclase result from activation of a membrane protease that then regulates adenylate cyclase in the ovary.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270717"}

Upon removal of excess PMB, KCl, and L-threonine, a time-dependent recovery of enzyme activity was observed in 25 mM phosphate/I mM EDTA buffer, pH 7.5. Circular dichroism studies indicated that the transition from inactive to reactivated form of the enzyme was accompanied by a conformational change in the protein. Experiments with [14C]PMB revealed loss of enzyme-bound radioactivity during reactivation. Increase in ionic strength of the phosphate buffer and/or addition of L-threonine, leading to enzyme aggregation, decreased the rate of enzyme reactivation, aggregated enzyme that remained inactive retained [14C]PMB on the enzyme. Sulfhydryl titration of various forms of the enzyme suggested a preferential release of PMB from a sulfhydryl group essential to enzymic activity.

In this report we examine the kinetics of digestion of three classes of genes in the oviduct which are transcribed at significantly different rates. Our results indicate that the ovalbumin genes appear to be organized by chromatin proteins in such a way that they are rendered exceedingly sensitive to digestion by DNase I. This sensitivity is not observed in the liver, a tissue in which these genes are transcriptionally inert. Furthermore, the transcriptionally inactive globin genes in the oviduct are not selectively sensitive to nuclease attack and are digested 5 times more slowly in the ovalbumin genes in this tissue. In addition, we have examined the accessibility of a complex subset of genes that are rarely represented in the mRNA and are likely to be transcribed at a frequency orders of magnitude below that of the ovalbumin gene. Comparison of the accessibility of these sequences with that of the ovalbumin gene indicates that these two subsets of genes are recognized and cleaved by DNase I at similar rates. These results suggest that the maintenance of an active conformation about specific genes does not reflect the polymerase distribution about these genes. This active conformation is therefore not confined to sequences actively engaged in the transcription process and may reflect the structure about a subpopulation of the genome which represents the transcriptional potential of a given cell type.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270719"}

The levels of both fluid-phase pinocytosis and receptor-mediated phagocytosis are decreased at all temperatures examined between 15 degrees and 37 degrees. The increased degree of saturation of cell phospholipids correlates with decreased endocytic rates for both processes and with increased activation energies (Eact) for phagocytosis. The Eact values for phagocytosis, which range from 54 to 90 kcal/mol, depend on the supplementation conditions used.

The structure of these histone-depleted chromosomes is due to the presence of a number of nonhistone proteins that form a central scaffold that retains the approximate size and shape of intact chromosomes and to which the DNA is attached, predominantly forming loops. We now demonstrate that the protein scaffold may be isolated independently of the DNA by treating HeLa chromosomes with micrococcal nuclease before removing the histones.The chromosomal scaffolds may be isolated by sucrose density gradient centrifugation as a well-defined peak that is stable in 2 M sodium chloride, but is dissociated by treatment with proteases, 4 M urea, or 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate.

The 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum of cholesterol/lecithin vesicles shows no resonances attributable to the sterol. By contrast, several resonances attributable to quaternary carbon atoms or methyl groups are seen in the 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum of lanosterol/lecithin vesicles, indicating that lanosterol is much less immobilized than cholesterol. Because the membrane behavior of 4,4-dimethylcholesterol is closely similar to that of cholesterol, it is concluded that the axial 14-alpha-methyl group is responsible for the lessened membrane immobilization of lanosterol.

The adduct was identified as the thioester by isolation with single and double isotope labeling ([(14)C]citric acid and [(35)S]glutathione) and by conversion to the monohydroxamate of citric acid and comparison with the synthetic product by thin layer chromatography and high voltage electrophoresis. The enzymatic formation of the thioester (pH optimum 7.39 at 30 degrees ) requires oxidized glutathione and citrate; both substrates exhibit a Michaelis-Menten kinetics. During the enzymatic reaction equimolar quantities of thioester and glutathione sulfinic acid are formed. After gel filtration or salt fractionation the enzyme system requires Mn(2+) (or Mg(2+), which is less effective) for maximal activity. When extracts of mitoplast are tested, the time course of reaction is biphasic due to the rapid synthesis of the product by the thioester-forming system (molecular weight 171,000) followed by its decay by the hydrolase (molecular weight 71,000).

Analysis of the fatty acid composition of the lipids from the mutant cells grown on odd-chain-length fatty acid as well as [14C]oleic acid incorporation studies have shown that the mutant cells, unlike the wild-type cells, cannot incorporate exogenous fatty acid as a whole into cellular lipids, but utilize the fatty acid that is synthesized de novo from acetyl-CoA produced by degradation of exogenous fatty acid. This finding indicates the presence of at least two acyl-CoA synthetases that activate long-chain fatty acid. One, designated acyl-CoA synthetase I, which is absent in the mutant strains, is responsible for the production of acyl-CoA to be utilized for the synthesis of cellular lipids. The other acyl-CoA synthetase provides actyl-CoA that is exclusively degraded via beta-oxidation to yield acetyl-CoA.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270729"}

In multiple binding of ligands to a protein, the binding sites may seem to behave as if they are partitioned equally between two modalities. This paper analyzes three different molecular situations in which two actual assemblages appear: (i) two classes of sites exist at the outset in the ligand-free macromolecule; (ii) all sites are initially identical but after half are occupied, the affinity of the residual ones is altered; (iii) all sites are initially identical but they interact in a pairwise manner. The contours of affinity profiles-graphs of normalized stoichiometric binding constants (iK(i)) versus stoichiometric step number i-are examined for each situation to provide a basis for discriminating among them. Proper procedures for evaluating the site binding constants are then described. To illustrate these procedures, published experimental data for two real systems, binding of substrate or modifier by the enzyme aspartate transcarbamylase (carbamoylphosphate: L-aspartate carbamoyltransferase, EC 2.1.3.2), are scrutinized and the meaning of the calculated binding parameters is examined. The results demonstrate concretely that site binding constants cannot be specified without assuming a particular molecular model, but the stoichiometric constants can be assigned unambiguously without regard to the type of behavior at the individual sites.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270730"}

Ultraviolet irradiation of this fragment produced single-strand breakds at the bromouracils. We examined breakage at each bromouracil in the sequence by denaturing the DNA and displaying the UV-generated fragments on a polyacrylamide gel. In the presence of lac repressor, UV radiation failed to break at specific sites. We attribute this to a competing reaction in which the DNA crosslinks to the repressor rather than breaking. These crosslinkable sites thus define positions at which the lac repressor protein lies close to the methyl group of a thymine in the major groove of DNA.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270732"}

When complexes of 111In3+ and nitrilotriacetic acid is encapsulated in vesicles, 111In3+ exhibits a fast tumbling rate. Upon alteration of the membrane, 111In3+ is released from the liposomes and becomes bound to macromolecules, consequently exhibiting a decrease in 111In3+ tumbling rate. The in vitro experiments show that the present technique is capable of determining quantitatively the percentage of material released from the vesicles upon the addition of serum or Triton X-100 to vesicles. The percentage of vesicles remaining intact in vivo can also be monitored continuously by the present technique. In mice, the half-life of dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine-cholesterol vesicles after intraperitoneal injection was estimated to be 10-13 hr.

An important feature of Perutz's trigger mechanism for cooperativity in the reversible oxygenation of hemoglobin (Hb) is the tension along the histidine--metal linkage in deoxyHb and deoxycobaltohemoglobin (deoxy CoHb), supposedly due to the pull exerted by the globin on the metal atom. We have attempted to verify the existence of this pull by studying the emission Mössbauer spectra of deoxy 57CoHb and oxy 57 CoHb at different temperatures. The emission Mössbauer spectrum for none of the cobalt Hbs agrees with the absorption spectrum of the corresponding iron analog and, moreover, the spectrum of deoxy 57CoHb is characteristic of the intermediate-spin iron. These observations indicate that the daughter 57Fe atom is \"frozen\" almost in the same spatial situation as that of the parent 57Co.

RNA synthesis in isolated HeLa cell nuclei prepared from cells pretreated with 5,6-dichloro-1-beta-D-ribofuranosylbenzimidazole (DRB) is inhibited in a time-dependent manner. After 40-min pretreatment of cells with 60 muM DRB in the presence of actinomycin D (0.04 mug/ml), the rate of RNA synthesis in isolated nuclei, measured by [(3)H]UTP incorporation, is decreased by 63%. The DRB-resistant one-third of heterogeneous nuclear is distributed over the entire size range of heterogeneous nuclear RNA with some enrichment in the 18S range, as was observed earlier by pulse-labeling whole cells. A subclass of nucleoplasmic RNA molecules is defined in the approximate size range 110 to 250 x 10(3) daltons (330-740 nucleotides). By using heparin (2 mg/ml) to block the synthesis of smaller RNA, a peak in the chain-length range 330-740 nucleotides can be clearly resolved on 2.2% polyacrylamide/1% agarose gels in nuclei from control and DRB-treated cells. The synthesis of these molecules is largely ( approximately 90%) resistant to DRB but sensitive to alpha-amanitin at 1 mug/ml. The in vitro synthesis of molecules in the 140-330 residue range is also sensitive to alpha-amanitin at 1 mug/ml, and it is not at all affected by pretreatment of cells with DRB. Although the synthesis of the RNA in both the 330-740 and the 140-330 residue size ranges appears to be catalyzed by RNA polymerase II, the results with heparin suggest that there may be reinitiation of molecules in the 140-330 size range but not in the 330-740 range in vitro. The synthesis of 4.5S RNA ( approximately 100 nucleotides) and 5S RNA (120 nucleotides) is unaffected by pretreatment of cells with DRB and, as previously reported, is catalyzed by RNA polymerase III, with reinitiation occurring in vitro.

Bovine adrenal chromaffin cells were isolated by removal of the cortex and sequential collagenase digestion of the medulla. The catecholamine secretory function of these cells was characterized with respect to acetylcholine stimulation, cation requirements, and cytoskeletal elements. The dose-response curve for stimulated release had its half-maximum value at 10(-5) M acetylcholine, and maximum secretion was on the average 7 times that of control basal secretion. The differential release of epinephrine versus norepinephrine after stimulation with 0.1 mM acetylcholine occurred in proportion to their distribution in the cell suspension. The cholinergic receptors were found to be predominantly nicotinic. The kinetics of catecholamine release were rapid, with significant secretion occurring in less than 60 sec and 85% of maximum secretion within 5 min. A critical requirement for calcium in the extracellular medium was demonstrated, and 80% of maximum secretion was achieved at physiologic calcium concentrations. Stimulation by excess potassium (65 mM KCl) also induced catecholamine secretion which differed from acetylcholine stimulation in being less potent, in having a different dependence on calcium concentration, and in its response to the local anesthetic tetracaine. Tetracaine, which is thought to inhibit membrane cation permeability, was able to block acetylcholine-stimulated but not KCl-stimulated secretion. The microtubule disrupting agent vinblastine was able to block catecholamine release whereas the microfilament disrupter cytochalasin B had little effect. The results show the isolated bovine chromaffin cells to be viable, functioning, and available in large quantity.

The main findings were the same regardless of the gland source or experimental approach. Dextran was taken up initially via coated pits into smooth-surfaced apical vesicles. Shortly thereafter it was found in multiple cell compartments: within the stacked Golgi cisternae, in condensing vacuoles, and in lysosomes. Uptake was more rapid and uniform in vivo; dextran was seen in multiple cisternae of numerous Golgi complexes within 5 min after infusion. In acini incubated in vitro uptake into Golgi cisternae was more delayed and occurred with increasing frequency up to 60 min; also, more dextran was taken up into lysosomes, which were more numerous in vitro than in vivo. The results demonstrate that, after exocytosis, membrane is removed from the cell surface via vesicles that fuse with multiple cell compartments. The two novel findings are: (a) the demonstration that the tracer can reach most of the Golgi cisternae in a given stack and (b) the demonstration of the rapidity with which the process takes place (i.e., within 5 min).

Erythropoietic stress in the form of periodic bleeding or erythropoietin injection in utero did not stimulate production of Hb C (alpha2betaC2) in fetal sheep until shortly before birth, and then only in two of six animals.

Subsequently, the acetylcholine receptor reaches maximal levels, whereas the development of electrical properties is marked by a further increase in resting potential, changes in the characteristics of the elicited action potential, and the recruitment of additional membrane areas for action potential generation. Maturation of electrical excitability, marked by the acquisition of the ability to fire repetitively and to conduct action potentials along the membrane, occurs well after resting potential has reached a maximum. During post-maturational development, myotubes exhibit spontaneous electrical and contractile activity, and levels of acetylcholine receptor accessible to externally applied 125I-labeled alpha-bungarotoxin decrease markedly.

However, when dissociated ciliary ganglion neurons were prepared from either 8- or 14-day-old embryos and grown in cell culture with skeletal myotubes, essentially all of the neurons survived for at least 3 weeks. Many of the neurons formed functional synapses on myotubes under these conditions; some neuromuscular synapses could be detected as early as 20 hr after addition of the ganglion cells to muscle cultures. In contrast, most neurons from 8-day embryos survived for only a few days when grown alone on either polyornithine- or collagen-coated dishes. These results suggest that neurons destined to die in ovo can be rescued when grown in cell culture with myotubes and that under these conditions the neurons develop and express differentiated properties.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270756"}

We present a method for setting up topographically ordered mappings between two sheets of nerve cells. A set of chemical markers that express the neighborhood relationships within the presynaptic sheet is induced by the fibers into the postsynaptic sheet. The markers are used to guide the fibers to their terminal sites. A case for which this idea may be relevant is the retinotectal projection; our model exhibits types of plasticity found experimentally. The fact that the postsynaptic markers remain after removal of the projecting fibers suggests an important difference between development and regeneration. This paper concentrates on explaining the basic idea, and in addition presents a set of preliminary computer simulations.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270757"}

The nerve cell line PC12, in its morphologically undifferentiated state, synthesizes, stores, and secretes catecholamines and acetylcholine. At least 60% of the basal level of neurotransmitter release is due to a calcium-dependent mechanism, and the rate of secretion is enhanced by increasing external potassium. A minimum of 80% of the intracellular acetylcholine and catecholamines are stored in particulate structures. The storage site for acetylcholine is dense core vesicles that can be distinguished from those containing catecholamines on the basis of vesicle density on sucrose gradients, vesicle size, and reserpine sensitivity. These results are discussed in relation to what are thought to be the early stages of synapse formation in cell culture.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270759"}

It generalizes neatly to a 2-sex model of linear differential equations, and to general n-variable linear systems.

The present study confirms earlier observations that the musculature of elite distance runners is characterized by a high predominance of ST fibers. Although the percent ST fibers effectively discriminates between good and elite distance runners, fiber composition alone is a poor predictor of distance running success within the group of elite runners. Muscle enzyme measurements suggest that the 11 to 20 miles (17.7 to 32.2 km) of daily training performed by the elite runners produced a significantly greater increase in muscle SDH activity than was observed in the good distance runners, who were running 7 to 11 miles (11.3 to 17.7 km) per day, Although such endurance training enhances the oxidative capacity of the muscle, it apparently has little influence on the enzymes of glycogenolysis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270925"}

Prescribed, supervised exercise training has proved valuable in the rehabilitation of selected coronary patients. However, long distance (marathon) running has limited cardiovascular value in the rehabilitation of patients for a majority of occupations, which involve predominantly upper extremity effort. The age of patients with coronary heart disease and the severity of the lesions preclude the wide application of marathon running to the general coronary heart disease population. Less than 6/1000 subjects with coronary heart disease have been estimated as potentially being able to achieve by high-level training a maximum Vo2 sufficient to complete a marathon race in 5 hours. The hazards of high-level-activity-induced cardiac arrest that is reversible mandates the availability of CPR equipment and personnel in the immediate vicinity of all coronary patients and most coronary-prone patients who are undertaking such heroic activity. Over-publicized marathon running by a few subjects has aroused unrealistic expectations for the majority of coronary heart disease subjects and probably similarly for a considerable number of coronary-prone subjects, many of whom have \"silent\" coronary disease.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270935"}

This is an interim report of an on-going study of deaths in 42-km men. The absence of fatal ASCVD in these athletes can not be construed as evidence for the protective role of exercise alone. The ability to run 42 km depends on many factors. Exercise is only one. Avoiding tobacco is another. Dietary factors also play a role. It has not been feasible to remove one of these factors while maintaining the ability to cover the 42 km distance. Some 42-km men claim that megadoses of ascorbic acid protect them from collagen injury. This is supported by animal studies that show increased collagen synthesis proportional to ascorbic acid intake up to dosage levels that would equal 10 grams per day for humans. Their self-selected macrobiotic diet contains a high ratio of peanuts:steak resulting in a high P/S ratio (polyunsaturates/saturates). Dietary manipulation quickly effects their ability to train. Smoking is so rare among these runners that it must be related to specific effects, such as a catalytic agent in tobacco smoke converting linoleic acid into a toxic lipid oxide. Noakes and Opie recently confirmed again (May, 1976) that no cases of \"death due to coronary atherosclerosis\" have been recorded in marathon finishers. If this holds true for the second 10-year period of this study, then marathon runners will have joined the longshoremen by earning life-long protection against ASCVD. These longshoremen burned 1,876 kcals on the job, equivalent to a 30-km run. Roberts and Straus suggest that many factors can cause atherosclerosis.

One of the two cases of clinically diagnosed myocardial infarction was fatal, and there were four cases of angiographically-proven infarction. Two athletes had significant arterial disease of two major coronary arteries, a third had stenosis of the anterior descending and the fourth of the right coronary artery. All these athletes had warning symptoms. Three of them completed marathon races despite symptoms, one athlete running more than 20 miles after the onset of exertional discomfort to complete the 56 mile Comrades Marathon. In spite of developing chest pain, another athlete who died had continued training for three weeks, including a 40 mile run. Two other athletes also continued to train with chest pain. We conclude that the marathon runners studied were not immune to coronary heart disease, nor to coronary atherosclerosis and that high levels of physical fitness did not guarantee the absence of significant cardiovascular disease. In addition, the relationship of exercise and myocardial infarction was complex because two athletes developed myocardial infarction during marathon running in the absence of complete coronary artery occlusion. We stress that marathon runners, like other sportsmen, should be warned of the serious significance of the development of exertional symptoms. Our conclusions do not reflect on the possible value of exercise in the prevention of coronary heart disease.

A prospective study of coronary heart disease (CHD) was done in 2,635 volunteer male federal employees of postal, health, aerospace, and other agencies, aged 35--59 years at intake. The present analysis is concerned with 2,065 initially well whites, of whom 65 suffered clinical CHD during a 4 years of annual follow-up. The subjects differed markedly in their levels of habitual vocational physical activity, which is classified (1) by division into sedentary, moderate, and heavy activity groups, (2) by blue collar or white collar type of occupation, and (3) by calculated annual caloric expenditure for both vocational and non-vocational physical activities. Intake variables that were studied in relation to physical activity and the CHD incidence include age, serum cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, relative body weight, ECG abnormality, and cigarette smoking. Socioeconomic status (SES) is assessed by levels of education and income and by a combined SES categorization based upon both. Estimated composite CHD risk scores are based upon Framingham equations. The CHD risk factors, singly, as well as in a derived composite risk score, are higher for men with heavy compared to sedentary or moderate habitual physical activity. However, this is a spurious association found to be induced by differences of SES. Thus, when physical activity and SES are studied in a concurrent analysis, a higher CHD risk is significantly associated with lower SES status but not with differences of vocational physical activity. The CHD incidence in this population is studied in relationship both to the risk factors and physical activity by multivariate analysis, using the multiple logistic risk model. The incidence of CHD is significantly associated with age, serum cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, and cigarette smoking. It is not found to be associated with the type of occupation (i.e., blue or white collar), the level of reported habitual vocational physical activity, or the calculated total vocational plus nonvocational caloric expenditure in physical activity.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270942"}

The relative prognostic importance of the measures considered here, the role of exercise, and the interrelationships between fitness, exercise, other risk factors, and CHD provide many interesting hypotheses for continued study. A future investigation will involve a large prospective study in which the risk function to be derived would include stress ECG and treadmill performance as predictor variables. The retrospective approach reported in this paper had certain limitations. It did, however, permit demonstration of new results because, essentially for the first time, all of the important risk factors are measured in the study population and can be evaluated simultaneously.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270943"}

The cardiovascular effects of a 12-week endurance training regimen were studied among normally active and healthy prepubertal children. Twenty-six 8- to 12-year-old children (20 boys and 6 girls) volunteered and 10 acted as control subjects. The training regimen consisted of distance running for progressively longer periods (from 10 to 35 min) 2 to 3 times per week, with 2 additional sessions per week devoted to running games. Those who were trained ran a cumulative average distance of 95.6 km (58.9 miles). Intensity of work was assessed from running pace and heart rate. The target workout intensity was 75% to 80% of aerobic capacity (Vo2 max). Growth and development accounted for increases in height, weight, body circumferences, and diameters, and fat-free body weight. Heart rate (HR) during submaximal workloads, both running and walking, decreased in the trained group (p less than 0.01) and (p less than 0.05). HRmax did not change, but Vo2 max increased significantly (average 7%) in the trained group but not in the controls. No significant change attributable to training was found for submaximal cardiac output, stroke volume, or arteriovenous oxygen difference. The Vo2 max value before conditioning was a relatively poor predictor of the magnitude of improvement in functional capacity, but those with higher initial Vo2 max logged more cumulative training mileage. It was concluded that prepubertal children respond to an endurance training regimen by improving their running capacity, which is, to a limited extent, associated with increased aerobic capacity.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/270949"}

Although infection was present at death in all 9 children whose leukaemia had relapsed, the leukaemia process itself was also a major contributing factor.

Ninety-six per cent of the 365 cases were histologically and radiologically verified and are separated into 8 categories of sarcoma.

Whereas previous writers have regarded the condition as a prenatal condylar aplasia or hypoplasia, morphanalysis studies of the four current cases have shown that the probable aetiology is postnatal local disturbance in the condylar region. The term condylysis has been chosen to emphasise the locally destructive (or lytic) mechanism which appears to be involved. Mandibular condylysis is distinguished from condylar aplasia by its non-association with aural/facial anomalies and because normal development appears to proceed until the lytic event occurs.

The relative frequency of occurrence of bone sarcomas, scored as to site, has been analysed in relation to these measured areas. Data on tumour occurrence have been drawn from three sources: radium-case data from Rowland and Keane (33 cases), naturally-occurring cases from series by Sissons (139 cases) and by Dahlin (473 cases). A strong correlation is demonstrated between tumour frequency and trabecular area, but correlation with cortical area is poor. By comparing the tumour frequency in the mid thirds of the bones with the total recorded it has been possible to show that the probability of tumour occurrence per unit area of cortical bone, relative to that of trabecular bone, is 0.16 +/- 0.06. Analysis of the available dose data for the radium cases shows that in this instance dose has not contributed to the observed correlations.

A substantial increase in plasma enzyme level was measured during drug-induced remissions, three weeks after drug therapy. The enzyme level fell to the normal range during unmaintained remissions inpatients with lymphomas; comparable information for the leukemia is not available since all remissions were drug maintained. These data, together with microscopic examination of marrow samples, indicate that the level of this fucosyltransferase is correlated with regeneration of a normal marrow population after chemotherapy. The enzyme assay may prove useful in defining normal bone marrow recovery and in timing cyclic combination chemotherapy in patients with neoplastic disease.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271043"}

This report identifies L-ethionine as an inducer of differentiation in murine erythroleukemia cells. When Friend erythroleukemia cells are grown in the presence of 4mM L-ethionine, globin mRNA accumulates and in 4-5 days, 25-30% of the cells in the culture contain hemoglobin. Incubation of the cells with bromodeoxyuridine prevents both ethionine-induced accumulation of globin mRNA and erythroide differentiation. At the concentration where L-ethionine acts as an inducer of FL cell differentiation it inhibits methylation of DNA and tRNA in vivo but does not prevent macromolecular synthesis or cell division. To establish whether a link existed between inhibition of a specific methyltransferase and activation of globin synthesis in FL cells, we examined the degree of hypomethylation of DNA and tRNA from FL cells induced to differentiate with dimethylsulfoxide and butyrate. In contrast to the tRNA from ethionine-treated cells, tRNA from cells induced by butyrate or Me2SO cannot be methylated in vitro using homologous enzymes. DNA isolated from cells exposed to any of the three inducers, however, was significantly hypomethylated when compared with DNA from uninduced cells. These data suggest that methylation of DNA may play a role in the regulation of gene expression.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271073"}

Clinical management of articulation dysfunctions is one area in which the joint efforts of dentistry and speech pathology are particularly beneficial. Those articulation deviations discussed result from: (1) deformities in the upper lip, teeth, mandible and the hard and soft palates; (2) introduction of dentures; (3) difficulties in adjusting to esophageal speech; and (4) special problems associated with cleft palate/cleft prepalate. Team management of the individual with cleft palate and/or cleft prepalate was also reviewed. While orthodontists and prosthodontists provide the technology for correct speech production, speech pathologists furnish therapy for cultivating speech or modifying defective articulation patterns. Speech pathologists also serve as liaisons with respect to patients and other professionals. The authors believe that, ideally, clinicians from all disciplines should assume a holistic attitude in treating organic and functional human pathologies. Such interdisciplinary clinical cooperation is especially effective between dentistry and speech pathology. The concept of team management of cleft palate/cleft prepalate is an excellent example of how concomitant treatment effects total patient care.

Treatment with ascitic fluid from animals bearing various tumors, can induce mouse myeloid leukemia line cells, M1, to differentiate in vitro into macrophages and granulocytes. Cells were isolated that were resistant to the ascitic fluid factor(s) stimulating differentiation (D-factor). The resistant cells became sensitive to the D-factor and differentiated after treatment with various inhibitors of RNA synthesis (actinomycin D, nogalamycin, chromomycin A3 or cordycepin) or protein synthesis (puromycin or cycloheximide). The cells could not be induced to differentiate by treatment with the inhibitors alone. The effective doses of the inhibitors of protein synthesis were toxic to the cells. Among these inhibitors actinomycin D (5 ng/ml) was the most effective for sensitizing the resistant cells. Inhibitors of DNA synthesis did not sensitize the resistant cells. Added actinomcyin D was mainly recovered in the nuclear fraction of the cells. The sensitizing effect of actinomycin D on the cells was roughly parallel to the extent of its inhibition of RNA synthesis in the cells. The effective concentration of actinomycin D (5 ng/ml) mainly inhibited it also inhibited alpha-amanitin-resistant RNA synthesis to some extent. These results suggest that alpha-amanitin-sensitive RNA synthesis may be involved in sensitization of the resistant cells to the D-factor.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271144"}

Several clones of dexamethasone-resistant cells, which could not differentiate even in a high concentration of dexamethasone, were isolated from glucocorticoid-sensitive myeloid leukemic cells. Some of them were shown to be deficient in steroid binding to specific cytoplasmic receptors, while the others contained glucocorticoid-specific cytoplasmic receptors that might be the same as those in sensitive cells. One of the resistant clones was found to be almost completely deficient in nuclear acceptor sites for cytoplasmic steroid-receptor complexes. The remaining clones were also characterized by significantly reduced amounts of nuclear-bound glucocorticoid. These results suggest that resistibility to glucocorticoids in the resistant clones of myeloid leukemic cells is due mainly to a defect in some steps of intracellular transfer of the steroid. Dexamethasone-sensitive cells, which could differentiate in the presence of dexamethasone, could be also induced to differentiate by protein factor(s) in ascitic fluid. Although all the resistant cells showed a low response to ascitic fluid, some of them showed 10-fold enhancement of phagocytic activity which is a typical character of differentiated cells.

Between 1973 and 1976, we performed 121 secondary corrections of the lip in cleft lip and palate cases; 75 of them were unilateral. Most of the cases were originally operated upon in another unit, usually by the same surgeon using a straight line closure according to Veau (1931). The result was always a short lip at the site of operation. In addition, the typical deformity of the aperture of the nose, with flatness of the ala cartilage, has been frequently observed. Various techniques have been used to correct the secondary deformities of the lip; some were modified by the author. In most cases, the Tennison (1952) technique was used with modification of the Trauner (1966) flap. The results of this technique were compared with those of Millard (1964). Other methods were used in a few cases. The results demonstrate, that by using the rotation advancement technique, better improvement of the nasal aperture will be obtained and the Z-plasty of the lip has the advantage of forming a cupid's bow. The method of lip correction chosen depends upon the nature of the lip deformity.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271185"}

In two thirds of the patients examined facial skull growth was found to be impaired, the clinical appearance ranging from pronounced faciostenosis to abortive forms. In some cases the clinical appearance was normal. One of the conclusions derived from the cephalometric data is that inhibited growth primarily affects the anterior portions of the skull base, which are found to be shorter than normal.

Effective multiple drug chemotherapy was able to control small deposits of osteogenic sarcoma in the lung, making surgical resection of residual visible nodules worthwhile. Surgical resection was most successful for solitary nodules or where multiple nodules were shrunk or at least prevented from growing by chemotherapy. Eight percent of these patients with pulmonary metastases initially or subsequently showed bilateral lung disease. When two or more nodules were found at th oracotomy, they were never confined to one lobe. For these reasons, wedge resections or segmental resections were the most commonly indicated procedures. Results justify an aggressive surgical approach to these lesions including multiple wedge resections of all lesions found at thoracotomy, chest wall resection and multiple bilateral thoracotomies.

Because all erythroid cells in chronic myelogenous leukemia are believed to arise from a common pluripotent stem cell, we studied the cellular distribution of fetal hemoglobin in patients with the disease to test whether cells with and without hemoglobin F have a common or separate pluripotent stem-cell origin. In a patient with chronic myelogenous leukemia and sickle/beta thalassemia, 17 per cent of the red cells during remission and 18 to 22 per cent during the blastic phase contained fetal hemoglobin. In 24 non-hemoglobinopathic leukemic patients 0.3 to 28 per cent of red cells contained hemoglobin F. Since the erythrocytes in chronic myelogenous leukemia are almost exclusively derived from the malignant clone, these data suggest that cells containing fetal hemoglobin originate from the same pluripotent stem-cell progenitor as those without hemoglobin F.

Cell-mediated skin tests reactions demonstrated less of a response to the N2 paste alone than when the dogs' pulp was altered with this material. In vitro analysis of cell-mediated immune response (lymphocyte proliferation) showed a marked response to the pulp altered by N2 paste as compared to the saline-treated pulp (P less than 0.002).

A barium-sulfate injection method combined with contact microradiography was used. Ingrowth of apparently new vessels was seen during the first postoperative days. After 10 days, visible vessels were seen in the apical half of the pulp, and after 30 days, in the whole pulp. Branches and apparently also anastomoses between pulpal vessels were seen after 10 days but were especially numerous after 30 days. One hundred eighty days postoperatively, only one of fifteen teeth was devoid of visible vessels, indicating pulpal necrosis. Thirteen of the remaining fourteen teeth exhibited visible vessels throughout the entire length of the pulp. It seems, therefore, that replanted and autotransplanted teeth with open apices have a high potential for repair. The revascularization of the pulp appeared to occur mainly by ingrowth of new vessels.

Sixteen teeth on which the cementoenamel junction was situated below the gingival margin and which were scheduled for extraction for prosthetic reasons were used. Two impressions of the facial gingival pockets of each tooth were taken using steel strips dipped in Coe-flex and inserted at the bottom of the pocket. The loss of attachment in relation to the cementoenamel junction was measured in a stereomicroscope with a  measuring unit of 0.04 mm.

In EOU the main recoveries were alpha-hemolytic streptococci, Corynebacterium, Veillonella, Neisseria, and Haemophilus. In NOM alpha-hemolytic streptococci dominated the cultures. Yeasts were only cultured from one patient with RAU. No mycoplasmas or viruses were isolated, nor was herpes virus antigen demonstrated in any of the RAU specimens. The role of the microorganisms in the pathogenesis of RAU is discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271340"}

The clinical findings in 20 patients with TMJ-crepitation (E1-group) and 19 patients with TMJ palpatory tenderness (E2-group) have been compared with the findings in 29 other patients with mandibular dysfunction (R-group). The patients underwent a clinical examination of the masticatory system and of the second distal interphalangeal joints (DIP II joints). No statistically significant differences could be found between groups with respect to clinical signs, occlusal interferences, or dental attrition. Loss of molar support was found to be significantly more frequent in the E1-group than in the R-group. The frequency of tenderness to palpation or pain on movement of DIP II joints was significantly higher in the E2-group than in the R-group. Periarticular bony swelling of DIP II joints was significantly correlated with TMJ-crepitation. The patients with TMJ-crepitation were considered to have TMJ-osteoarthrosis.

A study of intermandibular variations in bone mass in cortices between regions of the alveolar process and mandibular body and between buccal and lingual cortices in the same region has been carried out. The material consisted of 24 autopsy specimens of half mandibles from normal subjects. Microradiograms of ground sections from incisor, premolar, and molar regions were used. Quantitation of bone mass in percent within the cortices was done by an electronic point-counting system. The analysis indicates that bone mass may lie on nearly the same level all over in the entire lingual cortex. In buccal cortex, bone mass may vary from region to region, as a fall in bone mass from incisor to premolar to molar region in the buccal alveolar cortex, and a rise in bone mass from premolar to molar region in the mandibular body may occur. Bone mass in buccal incisor cortex of mandibular bodies shows great individual variations. Generally, bone mass may lie on a lower level in the buccal than in the lingual incisor and premolar cortec of the mandibular body while bone mass elsewhere lies on nearly the same level in the same part of the two cortices. Bone biopsies should be taken in either the premolar or the molar region of mandibular bodies.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271342"}

In 21 dental students, 14 males and seven females, with a history of 2--10 years of headache, acupuncture was performed unilaterally in the foot between the 4th and 5th metatarsal bones (G 41). The needle was inserted to a depth of 10--15 mm and moved continuously by hand for 15--20 min. Electromyographic recordings of postural activity in the right and left anterior temporal and masseter muscles were obtained in the same sitting before, during and after acupuncture treatment. In clinical controls 24 h, 1 month and 4 months after the treatment, 12 subjects reported considerable improvement, two variable results, and seven no change. The electromyographic recordings showed an average decrease in postural activity during acupuncture, particularly of the temporalis muscles, and a further decrease after completed treatment. However, marked individual variations in muscular response were noted.

It was concluded that all methods tested produced a rise in intraocular pressure in most patients, and that the degree of rise was related to the degree to which the eyelids were separated. It was therefore recommended that a method of eyelid retraction which allows adjustment is to be preferred, and that specula which do not allow this, such as the Barraquer speculum, are not to be recommended. Traction upon the superior rectus suture was shown to lead to a considerable rise in intraocular pressure and this should therefore be avoided unless strictly necessary. The traction produced by two limbal sutures pulling tangentially downwards, rotates the eye downwards for intraocular surgery without inducing a rise in intraocular pressure. Measurement of intraocular pressure in the operating theatre is recommended in order to ascertain whether the method used to retract the eyelids or to rotate the eye to the field of surgery is having an adverse effect.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271371"}

We have been largely influenced by the work and experience of Dr. M.H. Gobin (1964, 1968a, b, c), who feels that cyclotropia is an important factor in the aetiology of convergent squint. Gobin regards torsion as a third dimension in ocular motility, and thinks that for images to fall on corresponding retinal points it is reasonable to try to make the visual axes parallel horizontally and vertically, and that the retinal meridians should coincide.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271394"}

Vitreous haemorrhage was of secondary importance, and not a primary cause of MVR. The use of therapeutic encirclement is unnecessary and does not prevent the proliferative process of MVR. The few indications for cerclage, such as total retinal separation with no detectable breaks, total retinal separation with breaks in all quadrants, and MVR, are more effectively treated by 360 degrees scleral buckling.

The range of inter-individual variation of the maximal bite force and finger-thumb grip was great. The mean values were higher for the males than for the females. In the males the maximal bite force thus measured in the molar region was 39 kg (382 N) and 18 kg (176 N) in the incisor region. The corresponding values for the females were 22 kg (216 N) and 11 kg (108 N). The finger-thumb grip strength for males was, on the average, 10 kg (98 N); that of the females, 7 KG (69 N). The average difference in bite force between the men and the women was larger in the group with natural teeth than in the one with complete dentures. The values found for the bite force decreased with increasing age, especially for the females. Most of this reduction with increasing age was probably due to the age-dependent deterioration of the dentition. In both sexes the bite force was notably smaller among the denture wearers than among the dentate persons.

Initial treatment with OPAL (Oncovin (vincristine), prednisolone, adriamycin (doxorubicin), and L-asparaginase (colaspase)) followed by craniospinal or cranial irradiation and intrathecal methotrexate produced remission in 36 patients (71%). Seventeen of these patients relapsed three to 18 months after the start of remission; the remainder had been in remission for 12 to 52 months by the end of the study. The predicted median duration of complete remission was 18.5 months. None of the four patients who initially had clinical evidence of CNS disease, three of whom also had leukaemic cells identical to those found in Burkitt's lymphoma, achieved remission. Those patients who initially had hepatomegaly or splenomegaly had a shorter remission than those without. The predicted median survival was 27 months in those who achieved complete remission, one month in those who did not, and 21 months overall.

The end product of development is defective, incompletely calcified, disorganized bone without any inclusions of bone marrow tissue. When Dunn osteosarcoma is freeze-dried and then implanted, the tumor is resorbed and replaced by deposits of normal cartilage, bone, and bone marrow. Freeze-dried Ridgway osteosarcoma is replaced only by a fibrous connective tissue scar. Disaggregated Dunn tumor osteoblasts synthesize a trypsin-labile collagenase-resistant cell surface localized bone morphogen. Tumor matrix stroma, prepared by sequential chemical extraction of soluble non-collagenous proteins also contains significant quantities of the same bone morphogen. Tumor tissue pulverized to particle size as small as 44 micrometer3 transmitted bone morphogen more rapidly than intact tumor tissue. The total tumor cell and stroma mediated bone morphogen produces three times more normal bone than normal cortical bone matrix.

Since these dextran derivatives cannot penetrate into cells and since dextran itself does not bind to cells, these compounds represent reagents specific for the cell surface. They may be used both to evaluate cell surface constituents of intact cells and to affect viable cells via an interaction with those constituents. Mercury-dextran was found to bind to cells; the amount of mercury thus attached to the cells was about ten times smaller than when an equivalent concentration of free mercury ions was used. Mercury-dextran, bound to cells after a 30-min exposure at room temperature, was localized on the surface of these cells, as sodium borohydride reduced this complex giving rise to the intact cells, elementary mercury and free dextran which was released into medium. When cells were constantly exposed to the mercury-dextran, its toxic effects were comparable to that of free mercury ions. Diazonium-dextran, which also binds tightly to the cell surface, was also considerably toxic. Dextrans substituted with dyes which bind to nucleic acids were less toxic than the parent dyes themselves; it was shown that the attachment of such a dye to dextran decreased the binding of dye to cells under detection limits.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271608"}

Whenever a patient presents for evaluation of orofacial pain the dentist must remember: (1) to take a detailed history of the characteristics of the pain; (2) to complete a full examination of not only the teeth and the oral cavity but also the face, head, and neck; (3) not to assume that the patient in his chair necessarily has a dental condition producing his pain; (4) that if he is unaware of the existence of certain diseases he will never diagnose them!; and (5) to have no hesitation in referring a patient for evaluation rather than perform irreversible dental procedures.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271625"}

In order to assess whether copper amalgam accumulates less bacterial plaque than silver amalgam, 14 copper amalgam cervical restorations were placed in 10 patients. Control silver amalgam fillings were placed in homologous teeth of the same jaw. To evaluate the amount of plaque, the stained areas on the amalgams were analyzed from photographs with a planimetric method. Further quantitative analyses of plaque growth on copper amalgam were carried out with microbiological methods, for which a new group of 10 patients was selected. Cervical cavities were prepared on both sides of the jaw. Specimens of copper amalgam and silver amalgam restorations were placed on opposite sides. The plaque was collected after 2 and 3 days and cultivated under aerobic and anaerobic conditions on blood agar plates and on Mitis Salivarius Agar. The results of both methods show a very significant inhibition of plaque growth on copper amalgam. These results were confirmed by scanning electron micrographs which showed that copper amalgam only had plaque on small areas. The plaque appeared in band formations arranged irregularly on the surface. Higher magnifications revealed a filamentous structure with predominating coccoid organisms. Scanning electron micrographs also showed that pellicle formation, which is considered to be necessary for bacterial adherence to the surface, took place on both amalgams.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271651"}

Root surfaces of mandibular incisors placed in a jaw model were cleaned of adhering deposits, photographed by SEM and evaluated at a standard magnification by three examiners. Scores were given for remaining calculus (RCI) and loss of tooth substance (LTSI) according to defined index criteria. The results revealed that calculus removal was most complete following diamond instrumentation, whereas the ultrasonic curette was least efficient in this respect. Hand curette, ultrasonic curette and Roto-Pro removed about the same amount of tooth substance whereas the diamond removed considerably more than the others.

The material consisted of 30 subjects without known systemic diseases: one group of 15 patients with juvenile periodontitis and a control group of 15 subjects with normal periodontal conditions. Test- and control subjects were paired according to sex, age, height, and weight. Each group comprised four men and 11 women aged 18-31 years. The bone mineral content (BMC) was estimated by gamma-ray photon absorptiometry of both forearms, expressed (in arbitrary units) as the mean value of 6 scans of each forearm. No significant differences were found between the total average of the 6 scans from right and left forearms or between the total and mean value for BMC in the test- and in the control group.

The report also presents a new and effective method for the iontophoresis of fluoride for dentin desensitization.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271732"}

A review of the polyurethane elastomers used for facial prostheses has been presented. A description of the casting technique was given. The materials require accuracy and care in handling to insure the successful casting of a prosthesis. They seem to simulate the characteristics of the facial tissues and are more durable and comfortable than previously used materials. Over 300 patients have been exposed to or treated with these materials without evidencing significant adverse tissue reaction. In spite of the improvements that these materials present over previous ones (PVC and silicones), much work is still required to understand their behavior and their physical and mechanical characteristics and to compensate for the metameric phenomenon.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271733"}

Three classes of progenitor cells were assayed: burst-forming units dependent on erythropoietin (BFU-E), colony-forming units dependent on erythropoietin (CFU-E), and granulopoietic progenitors (CFU-C). Significant positive correlations between numbers of BFU-E, CFU-E, and CFU-C were found in all 3 groups of patients. In contrast, no such positive correlations were seen between marrow blasts and any of the classes of colony-forming progenitors. These results were compatible with a shared relationship of the colony-forming progenitors to a pluripotent cell of origin and raised the possibility that the immediate progenitors of the blasts may not be any of the myelopoietic progenitor cells monitored in these studies.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271747"}

A nonstructured interview schedule was used to obtain information.  Additional information was obtained on another 32 patients from their physicians.  There were 74 married, 142 never-married, and 37 previously married.  72.3% were European origin, 7.6% Maori, 13.8% as Pacific Island, and 6.3% other.  The majority of these patients were denied their abortion because their pregnancy was too advanced (57%).  52.9% were Protestant, 20.5% were Catholic, and 26.4% other.  18 patients had been denied abortion because of absence of pregnancy and this was confirmed at follow-up.  13 patients had miscarriages, 3 self-induced.  Only 69 patients completed their pregnancy the rest having obtained an abortion elsewhere.  8 women adopted out their infants.  54.5% of women with insufficient legal grounds for abortion and 66% of those whose pregnancies were too far advanced had therapeutic abortions elsewhere.

The levels of all hormones except human chorionic gonadotrophin increased till 37 weeks. After the 30th week, the increase of oestriol was steeper than oestradiol and hPL. The hormone profile of the maternal plasma is a good index of feto-placental function. The hPL levels which heralded the increase in endocrine function of the feto-placental unit were also elevated in premature labour, suggesting a casual relationship of significance.

The biphasic duplex-to-strand transition for the netropsin.poly(dA-dT) complex, phosphate/drug mole ratio (P/D) = 50, has been investigated by high-resolution proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy at the nonexchangeable base and sugar protons in 0.1 M cacodylate solution. The NMR spectral parameters monitor the structure and dynamics of the opening of antibiotic-free base pair regions (55 degrees-65 degrees) and the opening of base regions centered on bound netropsin (90 degrees-100 degrees). The gradual addition of netropsin to poly(dA-dT) results in structural perturbations extending into the antibiotic-free base pair regions that begin to level off above 0.02 antibiotic molecules per polynucleotide phosphate (P/D = 50). The NMR chemical shift parameters at the antibiotic-free base pair regions in the P/D = 50 complex suggest changes in the glycosidic torsion angles of the deoxyadenosine and thymidine residues and less pronounced changes in the base pair overlap geometries. The dissociation rates of the antibiotic-free base pair regions are at least an order of magnitude slower in the P/D = 50 netropsin.poly(dA-dT) complex compared to related parameters for poly(dA-dT) and the P/D = 50 ethidium bromide-poly(dA-dT) complex.

Increased rhodopsin content in the membranes appears to progressively inhibit the molecular motions of the methyl, methylene, and phosphate groups of the phospholipid molecules. This indicates that regions of the rhodopsin molecule interact in a manner that affects the phospholipids from the aqueous interface to the bilayer midline. In the dark, the recombinant vesicles were sealed to europium, manganese, or cobalt ions. Light exposure allowed rapid equilibration of Mn2+ and Co2+, and somewhat slower equilibration of Eu3+ across the membrane.

The tetrahedral adducts formed during nucleophilic attack by a hydroxyl ion on the carbonyl carbon of a model dipeptide, glycylglycine, were studied by modified-intermediate-neglect-of-differential-overlap molecular orbital calculations. This dipeptide is taken to represent the D-alanyl-D-alanine terminus of the polypeptides involved in the cross-linking transpeptidation reaction of peptidoglycan in bacterial cell walls. It was found that nucleophilic attack on one face of the carbonyl carbon leads to a transition intermediate species structurally similar to that afforded by the bicyclic nucleus of penicillins and cephalosporin antibiotics. The results support the concept that the beta-lactam antibiotics, which are known to inhibit various bacterial cell wall enzymes, may act as transition state analogs. Also, the structure formed from nucleophilic attack on the so-called alpha face of the dipeptide is more similar to the antibiotic structures than is that from attack on the opposite face. In agreement with other types of experiments, the results suggest that the alpha face may be the one approached by a nucleophile in the receptor site(s) of the appropriate cell wall enzymes.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271949"}

Activated Factor IX itself activated Factor X; thrombin failed to activate Factor IX. Sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis confirmed that the reaction product of tissue factor and Factor VII activated Factor IX, with replacement of the band corresponding to native factor IX [molecular weight (Mr) 55,000] by bands corresponding to the heavy chain (Mr 27,000) and light chain (Mr 17,000) of activated Factor IX. When either Factor VII or calcium ions were left out of incubation mixtures, the band of native Factor IX persisted unchanged.

Transcriptional activity and selectivity of added RNA polymerases are tested while endogenous RNA polymerase activity is inhibited by streptolydigin.

ApoC-II contains a single arginine residue, permitting tryptic cleavage into two peptides after succinylation of the native protein. The succinylated amino-terminal peptide, approximately 50 residues, did not activate lipoprotein lipase. The succinylated carboxyl-terminal peptide, about 29 residues, had significant cofactor activity. Relative to native apoC-II, the maximal activation observed with the succinylated carboxyl-terminal peptide was 50% lower and the concentration required for half-maximal activity was approximately 10 times higher.

The data are consistent with a site of action at the gene level, because it appears that interferon production is blocked at the transcriptional step by a retinoic acid-induced protein. (i) The effect of retinoic acid is probably on an early cellular function associated with interferon production rather than an effect on the inducer [virus or poly(I).poly(C)]. (ii) The suppression of interferon production by retinoic acid is blocked by cycloheximide, indicating that a newly synthesized protein (repressor) mediates the suppression. (iii) When allowances are made for the time required for the synthesis of the retinoic acid-induced protein, the time course of retinoic acid suppression of interferon production is superimposable on the time course of actinomycin D suppression because the slopes are parallel. These data provide evidence for transcriptional control of a specific protein (interferon) by retinoic acid.

The enzyme tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase [EC 1.13.11.11; L-tryptophan:oxygen 2,3-oxidoreductase (decyclizing)] first appears in the livers of young rats around the 15th postnatal day, and increases to the adult level by the 22nd day. Studies have shown that the appearance and subsequent development of the enzyme activity result from an increase in the rate of its synthesis and thus in the amount present in the liver. In this study, we have attempted to ascertain whether the appearance and development of tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase mRNA coincided with, and thus led to, the development of enzyme activity, or whether the biosynthesis of this enzyme was due to a developmental event enabling translation of a preexisting, sequestered, reservoir of its mRNA. Using a cell-free protein-synthesizing system based on a wheat germ S30 supernatant, we measured the level of tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase mRNA in the livers of rats between 0 and 22 days of age. We found that functional tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase mRNA is not detectable in rat liver until the 15th postnatal day. It increases to the adult level by the 22nd postnatal day, in parallel with the enzyme. The appearance and development of tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase are the direct consequence of the parallel appearance and development of its mRNA. It has been shown that glucocorticoids, which induce tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase activity in adult rats, are capable of inducing the appearance of this enzyme precociously in 8- and 10-day-old rats. We have found that it is also possible to induce tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase catalytic activity with hydrocortisone precociously in 4-day-old rats. Moreover, precocious induction of enzyme activity and the induction that occurs during the enzyme's normal developmental rise to the adult level between 15 and 22 days, are mediated through parallel increases in the level of tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase mRNA. The present findings indicate that glucocorticoids are developmental hormones that act upon the postnatal hepatocyte to evoke elevated levels of the mRNA species coding for tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase; the findings are compatible with the hypothesis that such hormones act by initiating and accelerating transcription of the structural genes coding for the alpha and beta protomers of this enzyme.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271960"}

Our investigations indicate also that these glycosphingolipid patterns are most likely caused by inherited preferential biosynthetic pathways in the abnormal phenotypes rather than by excess catabolism of the antigens. Evidence is presented that the fibroblasts of Pk phenotype lack beta-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (globoside synthetase; UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine:trihexosylceramide beta-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase; EC 2.4.1.79) activity, and those of p are deficient in alpha-galactosyltransferase (trihexosylceramide synthetase; UDP galactose:lactosylceramide alpha-galactosyltransferase) and possibly also in globoside synthetase. The diminished globoside synthetase activity in p cells, however, is not caused by the defect in the gene coding for this enzyme.

Carboxypeptidase A sequentially releases amino acids from the carboxyl end; the tetrapeptide sequence -Ala-Ala-Thr-Ser(COOH) was tentatively deduced for this terminus. (ii) The apomembrane, which lacks retinal, undergoes a second cleavage with trypsin releasing a fragment of approximately 6300 molecular weight from the amino terminus.

This fact raises the question of the function of the additional nucleotide sequence in the 14S mRNA. The following observations on 14S mRNA suggest that it may contain an additional cistron. (i) Under a number of denaturing conditions, 14S mRNA continues to retain its initial size characteristics.

Simultaneous injections of nerve growth factor entirely prevent the noxious effects of the vinca alkaloid, and result in partial appearance of the growth effects of nerve growth factor. Such protective action is not due to inhibition of vinblastine uptake which is the same in control mice and in mice pretreated with nerve growth factor. It is suggested that nerve growth factor prevents the vinca alkaloid action by favoring the assembly or organization, or both, of microtubules, which, from in vitro studies, have been proved to be inaccessible to vinblastine.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271981"}

Mutagenized stem cells of a cultured mouse teratocarcinoma cell line were selected for resistance to the purine base analog 6-thioguanine. Cells of a resistant clone were completely deficient in activity of the enzyme hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT, IMP:pyrophosphate phosphoribosyltransferase, EC 2.4.2.8), the same X-linked lesion as occurs in human Lesch-Nyhan disease. After microinjection into blastocysts of another genetic strain, the previously malignant cells successfully participated in normal embryogenesis and tumor-free, viable mosaic mice were obtained. Cells of tumor lineage were identified by strain markers in virtually all tissues of some individuals. Mature function of those cells was evident from their tissue-specific products (e.g., melanins, liver proteins). These mutagenized teratocarcinoma cells are therefore developmentally totipotent. Retention of the severe HPRT deficiency in the differentiated state was documented in extracts of mosaic tissues by depressed specific activity of the enzyme, and also by presence of unlabeled clones in autoradiographs of explanted cells incubated in [(3)H]hypoxanthine. Some mosaic individuals had mutant-strain cells in only one or a few tissues. Such animals may provide unique opportunities to identify the tissue sources of particular aspects of the complex disease syndrome. The tissue distribution of HPRT-deficient cells suggests that selection against them is particularly strong in blood of the mosaic mice, as is already known to be the case in human heterozygotes. This phenotypic parallelism supports the expectation that afflicted F(1) male mice that might be obtained from mutant germ cells can serve as a model of the human disease.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271982"}

The protease(s) responsible for removing the amino-terminal extension of nascent presecretory proteins (signal peptidase) has been extracted from rough microsomes of dog pancreas with the detergent sodium deoxycholate. Preprolactin and pre-growth-hormone, prepared by in vitro translation of bovine pituitary RNA in the wheat germ system, were used to assay signal peptidase in the extract. When added to the wheat germ system during translation, the extract reduced the size of preprolactin and pre-growth-hormone to that of prolactin and growth hormone, respectively. Post-translational addition of the extract also reduced the size of preprolactin and pre-growth-hormone to that of the authentic hormones. The prolactin produced by post-translational cleavage of radiolabeled preprolactin has been shown, by partial amino-terminal sequence analysis, to have the correct amino terminus. This post-translational assay has permitted the investigation of the subcellular localization of the enzyme. Sodium deoxycholate extracts of rough microsomes were active, whereas extracts of smooth microsomes were inactive. However, without detergent treatment, neither rough nor smooth microsomes were capable of cleaving preprolactin in the post-translational assay. From this we conclude that the signal peptidase activity is confined to the rough endoplasmic reticulum and is latent.

By using flow microfluorometry, the initial rate of dye transfer to the cells was measured as a function of the concentration of vesicles in the external medium. The rate of transfer consists of at least two components, one of which saturates at high vesicle concentration and the other of which does not saturate in the range of concentrations explored. The saturable component was competitively inhibited by vesicles not containing dye. Both the saturable and nonsaturable components of transfer were inhibited by fetal calf serum or bovine serum albumin but neither component was affected by bovine IgG, choline chloride, or heparin. Pretreatment of the lymphocytes with trypsin or Pronase had no effect on either component.

We demonstrate previously that fibroblasts from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients are significantly more resistant to the toxic effects of ouabain than normal human fibroblasts are. Ouabain is generally assumed to act primarily at the level of the cell membrane and to cause killing of cells by inhibiting ion transport. We have therefore examined the ability of normal and CF cells to survive exposure to ethacrynic acid, another inhibitor of ion transport, and to survive colchicine and aminopterin, resistance to which has been associated with membrane alterations in other cells. The effect of dexamethasone, which has a sterol nucleus similar to that of ouabain but is thought to have a different site of cellular action, was also tested. Exposure of the cells to ethacrynic acid, colchicine, or aminopterin did not reveal any differences in survival between normal and CF fibroblasts. However, CF cells survived exposure to dexamethasone significantly better than normal cells did. These results suggest that normal and CF cells do not differ in terms of a generalized resistance to ion transport inhibitors or to drugs that must pass through the membrane to be active. Instead, the results raise the possibility that CF cells have an enhanced resistance to drugs that have the sterol nucleus found in ouabain and dexamethasone.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271991"}

These interactions, in the presence of human serum, resulted in consumption of each of the components of the classical complement pathway (C1-C9) and also resulted in complement-dependent damage and release of trapped glucose from certain types of liposomes. CRP-initiated lysis of liposomes was strongly dependent upon membrane lipid composition. Optimal activity occurred with positively charged liposomes containing galactosylceramide (galactocerebroside); positively charged liposomes lacking galactocerebroside released much less glucose, while negatively charged liposomes, either with or without galactocerebroside, did not release glucose at all. Glucose release was inhibited by free phosphocholine. Lesser, but significant, \"background\" glucose release independent of the presence of CRP also was observed with positively charged liposomes containing galactocerebroside, and this was associated with marked preferential consumption of the later-acting complement components (C3-C9). C2-deficient human serum failed to support CRP-dependent glucose release, but glucose release was observed upon reconstitution of the serum with C2. Guinea pig complement also did not support CRP-mediated glucose release, but upon addition of human C1q substantial glucose release was observed. We conclude that (i) CRP can sensitize appropriate liposomes for complement-dependent damage via the primary complement pathway starting at the level of C1q; (ii) of those studied, liposomes that are most susceptible to membrane damage contain phosphatidylcholine, have a positive charge, and contain a ceramide glycolipid; and (iii) such liposomes also are sensitive, although to a much lesser degree, to complement-dependent lysis initiated in the absence of CRP and involving consumption of terminal in excess of early acting complement components.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/271994"}

For these studies the pentobarbital-treated proestrous rat was chosen as the major test animal model. If an artificial surge of luteinizing hormone (LH) is administered to these rats, it can induce a synchronized secondary rise in FSH secretion rate. Normal saline-treated rats were also used as test animals. They exhibit preovulatory endogenous \"surges\" of LH and FSH, and also a secondary FSH rise. Porcine follicular fluid was harvested from medium-sized and large (3- to 10-mm diameter) follicles and treated with charcoal to remove endogenous steroids. Charcoal-treated porcine serum served as a control solution. The fluid was injected intraperitoneally in two 0.5-ml doses into pentobarbital-treated proestrous rats immediately and 3 hr after LH injection. Follicular fluid, but not the serum, suppressed the secondary, LH-induced FSH rise (P < 0.01) in a dose-dependent manner, without altering the effects of LH upon serum ovarian steroid levels or follicular rupture. It was effective down to a total dose of 200 mul. Porcine follicular fluid also blocked the secondary FSH surge in normal proestrous rats exhibiting endogenous LH/FSH primary surges.

This was not the result of a particularly fragile site in that region of the chromosome because the break points in reciprocal translocations that involve it occurred almost exclusively in the short arm. Two consistent rearrangements that have been observed in chromosome 17 produced either duplication of the entire long arm or a translocation of the distal portion of the long arm to chromosome 15. The nonrandom chromosomal changes found in hematologic disorders can now be correlated with the gene loci on these chromosomes or chromosomal segments. Seventy-five genes related to various metabolic enzymes have been mapped; it may be significant that chromosomes carrying gene loci related to nucleic acid metabolism are more frequently involved in hematologic disorders (and other malignancies as well) than are gene loci related to intermediary or carbohydrate metabolism. Furthermore, the known virus-human chromosome associations are closely correlated with the chromosomes affected in hematologic disorders.

The type 1 S1 genome segment is responsible for ependymal damage with subsequent hydrocephalus; the type 3 S1 genome segment is responsible for neuronal necrosis and neurovirulence.

Cholinergic and adrenergic differentiation were assayed by incubating the cultures with radioactive choline and tyrosine and determining the rate of synthesis and accumulation of labelled acetylcholine and catecholamines. As in previous studies, pure neuronal cultures grown in control medium displayed much lower ratios of acetylcholine synthesis to catecholamine synthesis than did sister cultures grown in medium previously conditioned by incubation on appropriate nonneuronal cells (conditioned medium). However, here we report that neurons treated with the depolarizing agents elevated K(+) or veratridine, or stimulated directly with electrical current, either before or during application of conditioned medium, displayed up to 300-fold lower acetylcholine/catecholamine ratios than they would have without depolarization, and thus remained primarily adrenergic. Elevated K(+) and veratridine produced this effect on cholinergic differentiation without significantly altering neuronal survival. Because depolarization causes Ca(2+) entry in a number of cell types, the effects of several Ca(2+) agonists and antagonists were investigated. In the presence of the Ca(2+) antagonists D600 or Mg(2+), K(+) did not prevent the induction of cholinergic properties by conditioned medium.

The disposition and pharmacokinetics in rats of 14C-sorbitol-Ferastral has been studied as an initial step towards elucidating the metabolic fate of the polymeric organic moiety. The period of time studied was 24 h. Following i.v. administration of a dose corresponding to 10 mg/kg of iron approximately 60% of the isotope was found in the urine after this period of time. A further 3% was demonstrated in the faeces whilst the expired air accounted for about 10% in the form of 14CO2. Thus, a relatively large proportion of the radiolabel was promptly excreted via the kidneys whilst the expired air and probably bile constituted secondary excretion routes. The physico-chemical nature of the urinary product was similar to the parent carbohydrate compound. The residual 14C radioactivity was distributed mainly between the liver, which contained approximately 45% of the retained label, carcass with 36% and large intestine with 7%.

The extremes of dietary iron content so far reported are 5 mg per day in Mauritius to 180 mg per day in Ethiopia. Contamination with inorganic iron is an important source in some communities. Generally, the iron in food is in excess of requirement, but lumenal factors are all important in deciding how much is available for absorption. The iron of some diets is readily absorbed, but in other only a small percentage is utilizable. Hookworm infection is the commonest cause of severe iron-deficiency in many parts of the world. Its prevalence and its density depends on social habits, and may vary considerably even within tribes. The development of iron-deficiency anaemia depends on the hookworm load being sufficient to cause iron loss in excess of available intake.

The site of origin in 5 rats was found to be in or near the endosteum. Malignant proliferation started after at least 180 days of irradiation. Tumour development was dependent upon continued irradiation of an endosteum which contained a thin layer of fibroblasts and a few apparently inactive osteoblasts and osteoclasts. No increased cellular activity and no indication of new bone, cartilage or fibrosis were evident before the tumours began to develop.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272117"}

Intracytoplasmic deposits demonstrated to be calcifications have been identified in nipple aspirates from 3.6 per cent of breasts with satisfactory cytology. The deposits occurred almost exclusively in epithelial groups, and their structure ranged from dust-like particles and spiculated forms to psammoma bodies; all exhibited characteristic density, refractility and well-defined, irregular borders. Nipple aspirates containing calcifications were typically characterized by the presence of numerous epithelial groups, frequently of papillary type. This association was supported histologically by the fact that 11 of the 14 available tissue specimens contained papillary lesions in the duct system, including three with papillary carcinoma in situ. Cytologic abnormality was significantly associated with the presence of calcifications, and marked cellular changes were found four times as often in this group as in the total population with satisfactory cytology. Calcific deposits were found in six of the fourteen available tissue specimens, four of which contained breast carcinoma. Calcifications were noted in only 23 per cent of 97 available mammograms, but further investigation has revealed other significant radiologic findings. Cytologic calcifications were found most frequently in aspirates from women between the ages of 41 and 60 and were often associated with clinical findings of breast disease. Preliminary findings indicate an increased prevalence of breast carcinoma in patients with cytologic calcifications and suggest that such patients may require closer than normal follow-up.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272112"}

The patients began treatment at the age of six years and completed treatment at the age of nine years. As previously reported, chin-cup treatment resulted in a \"clockwise\" facial rotation with the mandible moving relatively posteriorly and inferiorly. Hyoid position measured in this study also tended to move slightly posteriorly but was primarily displaced in an inferior direction. The positional alteration exceeded in amount what might have been expected by growth alone. The inferior direction of change in hyoid and associated structures and the resultant lack of encroachment on the vital pharyngeal passageways suggests that stability and patency of the pharyngeal airway is a primary factor in hyoid positioning.

This finding was, however, only established for those landmarks having the lowest standard deviations and the clinical significance is thus questionable. There would appear to be other more important factors than physical image quality involved in the reliability of landmark identification. High intensifying screens are, therefore, recommended for use in cephalometric analyses since they help to reduce patient dose and do not appear to sacrifice diagnostic image quality to the extent that the reliability of cephalometric measurements is significantly affected.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272131"}

The use of a lower headgear-yoke-Class II mechanism on an average works faster than a maxillary headgear. The distal tipping of the molars is greater with HGY-II which may be the result of the quicker tooth movement. The speed of distalization is probably due to the effect of the constant force of the Class II elastics. An orthopedic change on the maxilla could be seen if one can draw any conclusions from a change of only 1 degrees. A reduction of the SNA angle and a slight clockwise rotation of the palatal plane was noticed. These results agree with earlier investigations about cephalometric changes with headgear therapy. We have come to the conclusion that both methods are indicated. We use the upper headgear especially at a time when a complete therapy is not possible because of noneruption of the permanent teeth. The HGY-II mechanism is indicated when most permanent teeth are available and thus the therapy can be completed in one treatment period.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272132"}

These patients illustrate a form of alcoholic muscle disease which may be more common than generally realised.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272168"}

Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis (TPP) is produced by a different metabolic disorder than familial periodic paralysis. In the familial disorder, a myopathic cause is well known, but although electromyography can be used to demonstrate the site of the lesion in TPP, such studies are rare in the medical literature and the results are conflicting. In this report, EMG studies were carried out on eight Chinese patients with thyrotoxic periodic paralysis during the attack and the results compared with studies repeated during a remission. Most cases showed a myopathic pattern during an attack of paralysis which disappeared during remission. The myopathic changes noted were a decrease in duration of muscle action potentials, an increase in polyphasic potentials, a satisfactory interference pattern with reduced amplitude and a reduced amplitude of the evoked muscle action potential on nerve stimulation. Peripheral nerve function was normal in the cases studied. It is concluded that the weakness in TPP is myopathic and that the peripheral nerve function during paralysis is normal.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272170"}

Scintisplenoportography (SSP) was used to assess shunt patency in 15 patients with surgically created portasystemic venous shunts and proved to be a simple, safe and accurate technique for demonstrating the patency of both mesocaval \"H\" grafts and distal lienorenal shunts. SSP was as accurate as angiography in confirming shunt patency but was simpler to perform and resulted in less radiation exposure to the patient. The direction and distribution of blood flow within the splanchnic venous system was different to that obtained by angiography. It is postulated that SSP may well reflect portal haemodynamics more accurately than angiography. In patients with patent mesocaval \"H\" grafts SSP demonstrated the complete diversion of splanchnic venous blood through the shunt into the systemic venous circulation. This suggests that the mesocaval \"H\" graft is haemodynamically similar to other side to side portacaval shunts.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272171"}

In nongonococcal acute salpingitis, evidence is good that both aerobic and anaerobic organisms are usually involved, especially Chlamydia and Bacteroides fragilis.  Penicillin must be infused intravenously in large doses to effect eradication, but the newer tetracycline analogs are effective in a majority of patients.  The following dose schedule for the analogs is recommended: intravenous doxycycline, a loading dose of 200 mg is administered slowly over several hours followed by 100 mg every 12 hours until the patient has been afebrile for 24-36 hours, then switch to oral forms.

These changes can be detected as early as 27 hr after the beginning of culture. Similar results are observed with DNA of the cells cultured with other inducers, butyric acid and dimethylacetamide, but not with DNA from a variant cell line resistant to induction with dimethyl sulfoxide. Ultraviolet irradiation, which is known to cause similar changes in the sedimentation rate of DNA in alkaline sucrose gradients, induces differentiation of the murine erythroleukemia cells.

The administration of 0.5 mg 6-amino-nicotinamide on the 14th day of gestation did not significantly affect the size of the palatal processes.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272236"}

Their responses were compared with standards specified by eight cleft palate specialists from four disciplines. The findings indicate that the specialists were somewhat inconsistent in what they expected the families to know about clefts and in their routine counseling procedures to provide the information. In general, the mothers had appropriate knowledge about clefts but predicted that their children knew more about clefts and cleft management than was actually the case. The children had less than adequate information about the general impact of a cleft, the etiology of clefts, the rationale for cleft management they had received, and future management of their problem. The results of the study indicate the need or more systematic procedures for providing information to the child with a cleft. The results also suggest the need for additional research about the general counseling process.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272237"}

A method is described for rapidly measuring the surface area of the palate by adapting a piece of soft plastic to a model of the upper jaw using a vacuum moulding technique. Tests with a hemisphere of known surface area showed the method to be consistent and to have a low degree of systematic error. When measuring models with unrepaired cleft palates, the error was found to be 2.1 per cent (compared with 3 per cent using stereophotogrammetry) but 7.1 percent when measuring intact palates. Because of the consistency of the method, the true palatal area could be calculated from the measured area by the use of a multiplying factor. These findings are described, and the application of the technique to the pretreatment assessment of cleft cases is illustrated by showing that, in a series of 30 cleft palate and 30 normal infants, a tissue deficiency of 16.8 per cent existed in the cleft subjects at birth.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272240"}

Research in human subjects should be conducted only if the rights and welfare of the participants are protected. Prospective study subjects must be given adequate information about all aspects of a study so that they can make a rationally exercised decision about participation; coercive techniques to solicit participants should not be used. Research in humans may be classified in one of three categories: (1) research on treatment of existing conditions; (2) research on preventive measures; and (3) research other than for treatment or prevention. Different concerns and aspects of informed consent assume particular importance in each category. In research on the treatment of existing conditions, untreated or placebo-treated control groups are rarely justified if the condition is irreversible. In research on preventive methods prospective subjects should be informed of the likelihood of receiving an ineffective treatment, if one or more placebo groups are included. A randomized clinical trial is usually the best design for studies of preventive methods. Non-randomized designs, which are feasible and statistically valid, may be employed in order to avoid depriving some subjects from receiving effective preventive methods.

Since that time each school with such a department has strived to develop various innovative methods of teaching community dentistry to its students. When the amount of time is taken into consideration, unlike the biological and clinical sciences, time allotted to community dentistry is minimal. However, at The University of Michigan students spend 232 hours in community dentistry, which necessitates development of creative teaching techniques to maintain their interest. This paper discusses one such technique which has proven to be successful over the past 3 years.

T(1;13)70H/+ translocation heretozygous mice were used for assessing heritability values for chiasma frequencies and the epididymal sperm count. The chiasma frequency estimates were based on 15 son-sire pairs, the translocation heterozygotes being maintained in a Swiss random-bred genetic background. The chiasma frequencies were scored separately for the T70H/+ derived multivalent, specific pairing segments within the multivalent and the remaining bivalents. Chiasma counts within these specified parts of the genome were positively correlated. The heritability estimates, significantly greater than zero, ranged from 0.78-0.98, depending on the chromosome segments included. These results indicate a strong genetic control on a cellular basis for the formation of chiasmata in the mouse. Despite significantly positive correlations and regressions between the various chiasma frequencies and the sperm count (for which 29 pairs of observations were available), no significant heritability estimate for the sperm count was obtained. The relation between the chiasma frequency and the sperm count was weakest when the chiasma count was confined to a region of the translocation-caused multivalent in which the absence of a chiasma almost always resulted in the production of an univalent. This indicates that in the translocation heterozygotes used, the overall chiasma frequency has a greater predictive value for the sperm count than autosomal univalence alone.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272363"}

This study has demonstrated, first, that the affinity of the enamel surface for a biologically active protein-in this case, acid phosphatase-may be modified by first impregnating the mineral with particular inorganic ions. Second, enzymic activity is altered as a function of the inorganic ion incorporated into the enamel surface. Third, strong inhibition of acid phosphatase is demonstrated by ions expected to be released during the carious process which contradicts the postulation that phosphatases are actively hydrolyzing enamel matrix-bound phosphate during the carious attack. Fourth, these results suggest that by incorporating a particular ion into the enamel mineral, a surface with assigned properties may be created which offers some degree of control over subsequent adsorption of organic matter. Thus, it is apparent that by proper selection of inorganic ions and organic macromolecules, both structural properties and biological activities at the enamel-oral fluid interface may be predictably modified.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272376"}

For some dental pulps, alveolar mucosa, and bone, the tracers were not determining equivalent blood flows. Because of incomplete trapping of the 7- to 10 mu microspheres and the flow limitation of 86Rb, the 15 mu spheres would appear to be a reliable indicator of \"total\" blood flow to pulpal tissues.

The results showed that 84% of the control group and 59% of the treatment groups had positive blood cultures (290 organisms isolated) after dental extraction. The duration and magnitude of these bacteremias were diminutive as documented by the six serial blood cultures taken for each patient, colony counts per milliliter of blood, and nitroblue tetrazolium and Limulus assays. Brushing the teeth or rinsing the mouth with chloramine-T before dental extraction significantly reduced the incidence of bacteremia (P less than .025) and the number of different organisms recovered from each patient (P less than .05).

Propranolol doses of 10 mg were retained in the mouth for varying lengths of time to investigate the absorption kinetics. Both plasma and oral contents were analyzed. Propranolol was found to be incompletely absorbed (about 40%) from the buccal cavity. The disappearance of propranolol from the oral cavity does not, however, reflect absorption of drug into the blood. Absorption onto or into the buccal mucosa followed first order kinetics with a half life of 1 to 17 minutes, variability being great between subjects. The appearance of drug into the blood was also first order characterized by a half life of 20 to 25 minutes. It was found that uptake from the oral cavity and appearance in the plasma are separate processes with transport into the plasma being the rate limiting step.

In rats with this leukemia the peripheral white blood cell (WBC) counts varied from 2.4 to 700 X 10(9)/liter. No differences were found in the bone marrow of the rats with the high WBC counts and that of rats with low WBC counts. This observation could explain the large variations in the number of circulating leukemia cells caused by differences in cell proliferation or delivery of cells into the circulation. Massive phagocytosis of leukemia cells occurred in animals with low WBC counts (less than 12 X 10(9)/liter) but not in animals with high WBC counts (greater than 150 X 10(9)/liter). This phagocytosis was directed against circulating leukemia cells. The main phagocytes were Kupffer's cells of the liver and macrophages of the spleen parenchyma. In addition, phagocytosis occurred in the spleens and bone marrow by intravascular macrophages, which were derived from extravascular sites. The endothelium of the postcapillary venules of the lymph nodes participated in the phagocytosis of circulating leukemia cells while continuing to be the locus of lymphocytic return from circulation to lymphatic parenchyma.

Both the distribution of general practitioners and the pattern of change 1966 to 1974 are analysed for three urban centres: Auckland, Wellington-Hutt and Christchurch. Results indicate that newer suburbs are less well served than either established neighbourhoods or areas of high socio-economic status. In addition, non-European areas were found to be disadvantaged.

We feel, however, this test may help in monitoring the progress of this illness in certain patients. Fibrin degradation products (FDP) are excreted in the urine in many forms of glomerulonephritis (Clarkson and others, 1971). The origin of the FDP is renal and not filtrated from the blood (Ekberg, Pandolfi, 1975). Clarkson further showed that in post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis there is a cessation of FDP excretion at the time of clinical recovery. We have studied a group of children with acute post-streptococcal nephritis in order to further assess the extent and possible value of daily FDP estimations in the management of patients during the acute phase of the disease.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272538"}

The earlier letter refutes a quote from \"Abortion and Social Justice\" used by the Commission, regarding the situation in Colorado after rape became an indication for abortion.  The quote reports that although between 1967-1971 the number of abortions for rape totalled 290, no rapist was charged or convicted for the crime.  However, according to the author of this letter, the actual quote reads somewhat differently, and states that, during the same period, \"no rapist was ever charged with his crime, much less convicted of it, which casts some real doubts on the reality of the alleged rapes.\" The meaning of this passage is that none of the alleged rapists had actually caused the 290 pregnancies.  From records and government statistics it is possible to count about 3300 cases of rape known to the police in Colorado for the years 1967-1971.  To suggest that none of these cases were charged or convicted is ridiculous.

The underlying structure of dense interlacing bundles of collagen is described. Surfaces of all pathologic condyles showed loss of lamina splendens, alteration of collagen size, and evidence of dissociation of both the collagen and its surrounding ground substance. Deeper levels showed aggregations of bizarre structures, which the authors term \"vermiform bodies,\" and which appear to be collections of abnormal amounts and types of elastic tissue. Its distribution suggests a stress elastosis, which may contribute to the loss of mechanical integrity of articular surfaces in arthropathy.

The idea that DNA in chromatin can be packed smoothly, without breaking of base-stacking interactions, has been explored by both energetical estimations and stereochemical model building. A model of deformed DNA is built that fits reasonably to the known dimensions of a nucleosome. The model has slightly changed torsion angles in the sugarphosphate moieties relative to B DNA, varying gradually along the chains. The angle between planes of adjacent base pairs varies between 1 and 7 degrees. This model of deformed DNA does not have any unusually close nonbonded contacts and is evidently not the only possible model of smooth packing of DNA in chromatin. An energetical estimation of the critical radius of curvature of a smoothly bent DNA molecule is made using approximate potential functions for different van der Waals contracts in the B DNA structure. The critical radius of curvature of the deformed DNA-axis is close to the radius of a nucleosome (similar to 50 A).

The degradation of lipophilic ganglioside GD1a and hydrophilic sialyllactitol by membrane-bound neuraminidase (EC 3.2.1.18) from calf brain has been studied at substrate concentrations of 0.1 mM. Ganglioside GD1a taken up by cell membranes is hydrolyzed faster membrane-bound neuraminidase than are water-soluble substrates of the enzyme, sialyllactitol and des-GD1a. Availability and enzymic breakdown of the disialoganglioside are enhanced by general anesthetics such as N2O or halothane whereas the degradation of the hydrophilic substrate silayllactitol is not affected or even is decreased by these agents. General anesthetics lower the microviscosity of membranes as indicated by studies of fluorescence depolarization with the indicator 1,6-diphenylhexatriene. Increased fluidity can result in higher lateral diffusion of ganglioside GD1a, thus increasing its chances of presentation to, and interaction with, membrane-bound neuraminidase. Lipophilic derivatives of the disialoganglioside, gangliosides GM1 and GM2 and gangliotriaosylceramide GA2, are strong inhibitors of the ganglioside degradation whereas water-soluble derivatives des-GM1, des-GM2, N-acetylneuraminic acid, and sialyllactose are not. A model is presented that suggests that the activity of membrane-bound neuraminidase on gangliosides of brain membranes is regulated by the viscosity of these membranes and their monosialoganglioside content.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272627"}

Catalysis-linked conformational transitions of aspartate aminotransferase (cytosolic isoenzyme from pig heart; L-aspartate:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase, EC 2.6.1.1) have been probed by infrared spectrophotometric measurement of hydrogen-deuterium exchange. In the unliganded pyridoxal form of the enzyme at pH 6.0 and 20 degrees, 43% of the total 411 peptide hydrogens per subunit exchange within the first 10 min. An additional 9% exchange slowly in the following time period to 360 min. A quite similar exchange curve is obtained with the pyridoxamine form of the enzyme, indicating close correspondence in conformation of both unliganded forms of the enzyme. Formation of a nonproductive adsorption complex of the pyridoxal enzyme with 2-oxoglutarate or of the pyridoxamine enzyme with glutamate alters the exchange characteristics only slightly. In contrast, the formation of an equilibrium mixture of the covalent transamination intermediates, which occurs in the silultaneous presence of the amino acid and the keto acid substrate, results in a marked retardation of hydrogen exchange, reflecting a substantial tightening of the structure of the enzyme. The exchange reactions of at least 26 peptide hydrogens per subunit (6% of the total) are retarded by a factor of 6 on the average. The occurrence of such syncatalytic conformational changes reflects energetic coupling of the covalency changes at the active site with conformational changes of the macromolecular protein matrix that may contribute to optimizing the free energy profile of enzymic transamination.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272628"}

USA 74, 510-514] presented evidence that was taken to support the existence of an intermediate in the deacetylation of acetylchymotrypsin. It was observed that deacylation, as measured by following the decrease in [(14)C]acetylchymotrypsin (decrease in acid-precipitable radioactivity), occurred at 1/10 the rate of reactivation, as measured by return of activity toward N-acetyl-L-tyrosine ethyl ester. Our experiments have shown that, at pH 6, the deacylation rate constant (measured by the loss of [(14)C]acetylchymotrypsin and by the formation of [(14)C]acetate) is identical (within experimental error) with the rate constant for reactivation (measured by determining the activity of aliquots of reactivating enzyme against N-acetyl-L-tryptophan ethyl ester) and with K(cat) for the turnover of p-nitrophenyl acetate by alpha-chymotrypsin. Part of the 10-fold greater reactivation rate observed by Chibber et al. has been shown to be due to the presence of 10% (vol/vol) isopropanol in their reactivation mixture, and it is argued that the balance of the effect is a manifestation of the \"indole effect\" produced by the simultaneous presence of 10 mM N-acetyl-L-tyrosine ethyl ester throughout the reactivation experiments.

The mechanism of the shutoff of cellular protein synthesis in vaccinia virus-infected cells has been investigated by using in vitro systems. Purified vaccinia cores cause inhibition of endogenous mRNA translation in nonpreincubated reticulocyte lysates and Ehrlich ascites tumor cell-free systems. Translation of viral mRNA from turnip yellow mosaic virus is also impaired in wheat germ cell-free extracts. The block induced by vaccinia cores in protein synthesis is not due to a decrease in the availability of mRNA but rather to an alteration of the cellular translational machinery. No nucleolytic activity able of digesting mRNA could be detected in purified vaccinia cores with three sensitive tests. There is a lack of inhibition in the poly(Phe)-poly(U) system, which bypasses the normal initiation process. An almost complete disaggregation of polyribosomes in the reticulocyte lysate appears when vaccinia cores are present. These results indicate that mRNA translation in a cell-free system is affected predominantly at the level of polypeptide chain initiation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272632"}

The IGF molecule is postulated to have an insulin-like main chain conformation for residues equivalent to B6--B27 and A1--A21 and a hydrophobic core nearly identical to that of insulin. A short connecting peptide of twelve residues and an extension at the COOH-terminus are easily accommodated on the molecular surface. The surface involved in dimer formation in insulin is largely conserved, but the zinc-binding histidine and many residues involving hexamerization are very different from those of insulin and it is unlikely that IGF forms zinc hexamers.

The field dependence of the steady-state dichroism values is not consistent with the induced electric dipole orientation mechanism, and the time dependence is not consistent with the presence of a permanent dipole moment. In order to explain the dependence of the dichroism on the electric field, the ionic strength of the medium, and the length of the macromolecule, we propose a new model in which anisotropic ion flow produces an asymmetric ion atmosphere around the polyelectrolyte, resulting in an orienting torque. From the limiting dichroism at high field, we estimate that the DNA bases are inclined at an angle of 73 degrees or less relative to the helix axis, in good agreement with the revised model of B-form DNA suggested by Levitt, in which the base pairs have a propeller-like twist.

Affinity chromatography of reticulocyte ribosomal wash yields over 100-fold purification of Met-tRNAf-binding factor. This factor is eluted as one of the most tightly bound proteins, and is active in protein synthesis even after passage over a column of double-stranded RNA-cellulose. eIF-2 binds mRNA and double-stranded RNA in distinctly different modes, protecting essentially all sequences in double stranded RNA, but very few in mRNA, against digestion with ribonuclease. Apparently, eIF-2 recognized the A conformation of double-stranded RNA, but not its sequence.

BSC-1 cells, epithelial cells of African green monkey kidney origin, show pronounced density-dependent regulation of growth in cell culture. Growth of the cells is rapid to a density of approximately 1.5 x 10(5) cells/per cm(2) in Dulbecco-modified Eagle's medium supplemented with 10% calf serum. Above this \"saturation density,\" growth is much slower. It has been found that the glucose concentration in the culture medium is important in determining the \"saturation density.\" If the glucose concentration is increased 4-fold, the \"saturation density\" increases approximately 50%. Reduction of the \"saturation density\" of BSC-1 cells is also possible by decreasing the concentrations of low molecular weight nutrients in the culture medium. In medium supplemented with 0.1% calf serum, decreasing the concentrations of all of the organic constituents of the medium, from the high levels present in Dulbecco-modified Eagle's medium to concentrations near physiological levels, decreases the \"saturation density\" by approximately half. The decreased \"saturation density\" is not the result of lowering the concentration of any single nutrient but rather results from reduction of the concentrations of several nutrients. When the growth of BSC-1 cells is limited by low concentrations of all of the nutrients, some stimulation of growth results from increasing, separately, the concentrations of individual groups of nutrients, but the best growth stimulation is obtained by increasing the concentrations of all of the nutrients. The \"wound healing\" phenomenon, one manifestation of density-dependent regulation of growth in cell culture, is abolished by lowering the concentration of glutamine in the medium.

They either could remain permeable or were able to \"reseal\" when replaced in complete medium under appropriate conditions. Optimal conditions for DNA synthesis were established for permeable cells, giving rates equal to those of intact cells.

Ribonucleotide reductase was active in permeable cells, permitting equal rates of DNA synthesis when ribonucleotide diphosphates or deoxyribonucleotide triphosphates were provided. Hydroxyurea did not inhibit DNA synthesis in permeable cells supplied with deoxyribonucleotide di- or triphosphates, but drastically inhibited DNA synthesis when ribonucleotide diphosphates were supplied.

Altruism is a group phenomenon in which some genes or individuals, which must be presumed to be selfish, benefit others at cost to themselves. The presumption of selfishness and the fact of altruism are reconciled by kin-group selection and by reciprocal altruism. Kin-group selection is clearly visible only in special cases; its role even among social insects may be overestimated; it is probably usually inhibited by competition. However, reciprocal altruism is ubiquitous. All altruism is: (i) potentially reciprocal; (ii) potentially profitable to altruists as well as to recipients; (iii) environmentally determined, usually by position of individuals in group or environmental situations; and (iv) a net-gain lottery. These generalizations are illustrated by four idealized cases; the difficulty of applying them to real cases is illustrated by alarm-calling in groups of birds. Although altruism is a group phenomenon, it evolves by individual selection, by processes equivalent to co-evolutions. Its evolution is: (i) opposed by competition; (ii) costly, complex, and slow, and tending to produce an imprecise flexible altruism rather than a precisely detailed one; and (iii) supplemented by group selection (differential extinction of groups).

Reversion of the TS phenotype for mutants TsAma(R)-1 and TsAma(R)-8 was accompanied by an alteration in the level of alpha-amanitin resistance of the RNA polymerase II activities in the revertant cells. Together these data provide convincing evidence that TS mutations in RNA polymerase II can be coselected with alpha-amanitin resistance.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272657"}

Thyroid hormone induces growth hormone synthesis approximately 5- to 20-fold and cortisol increases this response 2- to 6-fold further. Long-term kinetics of the growth hormone response show that, without added thyroid hormone, cortisol can induce a small-growth hormone response after 48 hr of incubation. Sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of proteins synthesized in intact cells demonstrates that the cortisol enhancement of growth hormone synthesis in cells incubated with thyroid hormone is a relatively selective process. Quantitation of growth hormone mRNA levels by cell-free protein synthesis demonstrates that the regulation of growth hormone synthesis by thyroid and glucocorticoid hormones is explained by a synergistic pretranslational control mechanism, presumably at the level of the growth hormone gene.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272661"}

In addition, three DES analogs, alpha-dienestrol, DES-dihydroxy diethyl phenanthrene (DES-phenanthrene), and 1-(alpha-ethyl, 4alpha-hydroxyphenyl)indanyl-5-ol (indanyl-DES), were studied. Estrogenic activities of the compounds in vivo were determined by the immature mouse uterine weight bioassay; in vitro, their estradiol receptor binding activity (competitive equilibrium binding, sucrose gradient analysis, and association rate inhibition assays) was determined. Results of the mouse uterine weight bioassay gave the following order of estrogenicity: DES > alpha-dienestrol >/= DES-epoxide > indanyl-DES > dihydroxy DES > beta-dienestrol > DES-phenanthrene. Results of competitive equilibrium binding analyses of these compounds with estradiol-17beta for the mouse uterine cytosol receptor followed the same order seen for the bioassay, except for indanyl-DES. DES, indanyl-DES, and alpha-dienestrol had the greatest affinities (K(a) values approximately 0.5-19.1 x 10(10) M(-1)), while DES-phenanthrene had the lowest (K(a) = 3.5 x 10(7) M(-1) +/- 1.2). Sucrose gradient analysis of the above competition preparations illustrated the displacement of [(3)H]estradiol from the receptor peak. This displacement was receptor specific and concentration dependent and correlated with the equilibrium binding concentrations. In addition, the most hormonally active substances demonstrated the greatest rate inhibition in the estradiol cytosol receptor association rate reaction (V(0)).

The level of melatonin in any urine sample tended to vary as a function of its norepinephrine content; however, the slope of the curve relating these two compounds in metestrous-diestrous samples differed from that for proestrous-estrous specimens. This difference suggests that factors other than the catecholamine (e.g., gonadal hormones) also affect melatonin secretion.

However, after hydrophobic resolution on an uncharged resin consisting of long-chain alkyl groups linked to agarose via ether bonds, 40% of the adenylate cyclase activity biospecifically adsorbed to an ATP affinity resin. Gel filtration without detergent after hydrophobic chromatography demonstrated that the enzyme eluted in the identical position as the native enzyme chromatographed in the presence of detergent. This preparation almost completely biospecifically adsorbed to the same ATP-resin and was not eluted with 5 mM cyclic AMP, pyrophosphate, or GTP.

Using DNA complementary to beef 33S thyroglobulin mRNA as a probe, we found that the mRNA sequence is present in the goat goiter but at a concentration 1/10-1/40 that of normal goat thyroid. Hybrids of cDNA with either goiter or normal thyroid RNA exhibited identical sharp melting curves which suggests that the same RNA sequence is responsible for hybridization in both tissues. Normal goat thyroid contains a population of large membrane-bound polysomes engaged in throglobulin synthesis. In contrast, such polysomes are absent in the goiter. In regard to subcellular distribution, the relative amount of the thyroglobulin mRNA sequences from the goiter in nuclear RNA was 42% of normal, in cytoplasmic RNA was 7% of normal, and in the membrane fraction was only 1-2% of normal.

Pathologic periradicular changes indicating pulp necrosis as a sequel to the total obliteration was observed in 16 teeth (21%). The late development of pulp necrosis was significantly related to teeth classified as severely injured, and to teeth with complete root formation at the time of injury. Furthermore, a comparatively rapid progress of the calcifying process appeared to be correlated with periradicular radiolucency.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272723"}

A study of the intramandibular variations in bone mass, coarseness of the bone trabeculae and bone activity between incisor, premolar, and molar regions has been carried out, as well as estimation of possible differences in these variations between groups of mandibles with different dentition. The material consisted of 24 autopsy specimens of half mandibles from normal subjects. Microradiograms of ground sections from incisor, premolar, and molar regions were used. Quantitation of bone mass was done by an electronic point-counting system. The analysis indicates that (1) the variations in bone mass within same region are marked, (2) trabecular bone is denser and more delicately woven in the incisor region than in either premolar or molar regions, where mass of bone is the same, although there is probably more delicately woven trabecular bone in molar region, (3) bone activity lies on the same level all over in trabecular bone within the mandibular body and (4) the variations of these factors seem to be independent of state of dentition in the single mandible.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272726"}

After the amalgams were removed from the solution, metallographic and microprobe examinations were made. The Cu amalgam released about 10 times more Cu to the artificial saliva than any of the other amalgams. The dispersion type amalgams showed a relatively large dissolution of Cu, while a smaller release was found from amalgam made of powder with one composition. The phases that appeared to be corroded first were gamma2 and Cu-Sn phases. In dispersion type amalgams the gamma phase appeared to be attacked. Most of the corrosion products remained inside the amalgam and were identified to be tin oxide chlorides.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272727"}

The outer enamel layer (less than 1 micron from the anatomical surface) is most likely a non-stoĭchiometric apatite. The chemical composition is obviously strongly different from the composition of bulk enamel. A model for the structure and atomic composition of surface enamel is presented. The available experimental evidence indicates that at an atomic scale, enamel crystallites have mainly phosphate groups (HPO42-groups) on the solid surface; the liquid adhering Stern layer contains most likely large amounts of calcium ions.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272746"}

Both crucian and carp egg-mRNAs were found to mediate the transformation of goldfish tail from the double (veil-shaped) to the single (fork-shaped). Livers of these single tailed goldfish were tested for genetic change using lactate dehydrogenase isozymes (LDH) as marker. Electrophoresis of liver extracts on starch gel showed that the liver specific LDH-C4 isozymes of both the egg-mRNA and liver-mRNA injected goldfish resembled the control goldfish except an additional intermediate band. The migration distance of this new band matched the third band of the hybrids (carp X goldfish). These findings lead to the conclusion that carp egg-mRNA contains a fraction partly responsible for liver development. Rat liver was found possessing the cathodally migrating C4 isozymes. Injection of rat liver-mRNA into goldfish eggs resulted in the intensification of the liver specific C4 isozymes. It appears therefore that the input informational molecules (liver-mRNA) and the output molecular products (liver C4 isozymes) are causally related. This causal relationship would pave the way for genetic manipulation in higher organisms.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272742"}

The aim of our experiments was to investigate firstly whether during an acute inflammatory process platelets accumulate in the inflamed area and secondly whether the inflammation has an effect on the properties of the platelets. Rat platelets were labeled with 51Cr and injected into the tail vein of rats with a carrageenin-induced edema in one of the hind paws. The amount of radioactivity was measured in the inflamed paw and compared to the control one in the 24 hr following the injection. An accumulation of platelets was found at 3-4 hr after the injection of the carrageenin which disappeared later. Maximal swelling occurred after 5 hr. The aggregability of the platelets was determined at different times of the inflammatory process. After 2 hr, a decrease was observed which was higher after 4 and 6 hr.

Rat platelet rich plasma (PRP) generates prostaglandin endoperoxide-like activity, thromboxane A2 (TXA2) and stable prostaglandins (PGs) after collagen addition. Of the stable PGs, PGE is the main product and its formation is related to the dose of collagen. Indomethacin and eicosatetraynoic acid (TYA), both cyclo-oxygenase inhibitors, inhibit TXA2 and PGE formation simultaneously. PRP of essential fatty acid deficient (EFAD) rats, however, generates far less PG-endoperoxide like activity, TXA2 and PGE, though the release of serotonin (5-HT) is unaltered. In normal rats a marked inhibition of the cyclo-oxygenase by TYA also has no effect on 5-HT release. For these 2 reasons the role of PG endoperoxides and TXA2 seems to be unimportant for the 5-HT release reaction. The diminished biosynthesis of PGs and TXA2 in EFAD PRP is not due to an impaired cyclo-oxygenase activity since addition of AA causes an equal formation of PGE in both types of PRP. The use of platelets as in-vitro model for testing anti-inflammatory activity of drugs is discussed. The results, obtained with platelets support the hypothesis that the main reason for the decreased acute inflammatory reaction in EFAD rats is a diminished supply of endogenous PG precursors.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272843"}

The carrageenin-induced paw oedema was used to study anti-inflammatory drugs in normal rats and in those deprived of endogenous precursors of prostaglandins. The latter condition was achieved by permanently keeping the rats on essential fatty acid deficient (EFAD) food. Indomethacin inhibited the carrageenin-oedema in normal rats, but failed to further suppress the poorly developed delayed phase of the carrageenin-induced inflammation in EFAD rats. In contrast, aspirin exhibited equal inhibition of the carrageenin oedema in both normal and EFAD rats. The anti-inflammatory effect of dexamethasone was also indentical in both normal and EFAD rats. Since in EFAD rats the inflammatory role of an increased output of prostaglandins is of negligible importance, the results with aspirin and dexamethasone shed some doubt on such views, that suppression of the release of prostaglandins alone explains the acute anti-inflammatory effects of these drugs. The inflammatory response of EFAD rats is a model situation appearing to be useful in studying anti-inflammatory mechanisms which, under normal conditions, might be masked by interference with the release of prostaglandins.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272845"}

Despite much early work on corticosteroid levels in the blood and urine of patients with rheumatic diseases, little strong evidence is available concerning the role of endogenous corticosteroids in inflammation. Nevertheless, the modulating role of adrenal corticosteroids in inflammation seems to be taken for granted even though the small amount of evidence in laboratory animals is, in some cases, contradictory. In the light of the immunological aetiology of some chronic inflammatory diseases and the immunosuppressive properties of corticosteroids, investigations into the role of endogenous corticosteroids in these conditions seem particularly worthwhile. Adrenalectomy has been used widely in studies on the physiological roles of adrenal corticosteroids but the operation requires care to avoid mortality. The adrenal corticosteroid synthesis inhibitor, metyrapone, could be used quite profitably in such investigations. However, it has been shown to exert differential effects on prostaglandin (PG) production in uterine tissue and may produce non-selective antagonism of the actions of PGs. Because PGs are probably involved in inflammation, care should be exercised in the doses of metyrapone used in any studies on inflammatory models to avoid interactions with the PG system.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272846"}

One hundred and ninety-one adults with acute myelogenous leukaemia were treated with combination chemotherapy consisting of daunorubicin and cytosine arabinoside (Barts III). Sixty-three patients achieved remission and were admitted to one of 3 trials of active immunotherapy: immunotherapy alone, immunotherapy and maintenance chemotherapy or neither of these. All patients had weekly clinical and blood examination and monthly marrow examination. Reinduction chemotherapy was given as soon as relapse was diagnosed in the marrow. The most striking observation was that immunotherapy was associated with easy and repeated reinduction of remission and marked prolongation of survival after first relapse when compared with immunotherapy plus chemotherapy. The possible reasons for this and the value of immunotherapy are discussed in relation to the third trial still in progress which includes 2 maintenance arms, immunotherapy alone and surveillance only.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/272913"}

It was concluded that the surface morphology of the cells from these lesions was intermediate between that of normal tissue and of malignant tissue. The observations have been quantified and subjected to computer analysis together with the data derived from the observations of normal and malignant tissue. This confirms the visual observation that a relationship exists between the modified surface characteristics of the cells from these lesions and their subjectively assessed histological appearances. A correlation has been found between the SEM appearance and an epithelial atypia index (EAI) derived according to the criteria of Smith and Pindborg (1969). In the case of lichen planus inflammatory changes appear to be associated with increased modification of surface characteristics. These changes are also reflected in an increased EAI.

The presence or absence of T- or B-cell markers was helful in classifying lymphoid leukemias. Monocyte progenitors were characteristically nonspecific esterase positive and Fc-receptor and membrane-IgG positive, but poorly phagocytic. Promyelocytes and myelocytes were frequently Fc-receptor positive and consequently positive for surface immunoglobulin. Myeloblasts were characteristically Fc-receptor negative.

Peripheral blood lymphocytes incubated with tumour cells or extracts may undergo blastogenesis. This is the basis of a technique studied in children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) in childhood in an attempt to predict relapse. Samples of peripheral blood and bone marrow from 82 children with varying degrees of ALL were analysed. Cultures were prepared by incubating a lymphocyte suspension with an autologous bone-marrow suspension. Final ratios of lymphocytes to bone-marrow cells (L: BM) were 1: 1 and 2: 1. Control wells received bone-marrow or lymphocyte suspension only. Cultures were incubated for 72, 96, and 120 hours. All were pulse-labelled with (3)H-TdR and radioactivity was measured by scintillation counting. Results were expressed as the stimulation index, calculated by dividing the mean counts per minute (cpm) of wells containing both lymphocytes and bone-marrow cells by the sum of the mean cpm for control wells. If the stimulation index exceeded 1 at 72, 96, or 120 hours at either L: BM ratio a positive response was recorded.Seventy-six children were in clinical remission at the time of testing (group A) and six were in clinical relapse (group B). In group A 24 patients showed stimulation and relapsed later at a mean time of 3.8 months (21 with marrow disease, two with testicular infiltration, and one with lung infiltration). Sixteen patients showed stimulation and had up to 4% blasts in their bone marrow but remained in remission. Nineteen other patients showed a positive response and several factors may have contributed to this: two underwent a \"rebound\" lymphocytosis after stopping treatment, nine had current or intercurrent infections, two had persistent unexplained bone-marrow lymphocytosis, but six had no causative symptoms and thus their responses were \"true false-positives.\" Seventeen patients from group A showed no response and remained in remission for a mean of 22.9 months after testing. None of the six children in group B responded, and at testing had 17-85% blasts in their bone marrow.During the study no patient relapsed who had not shown a positive response.

Investigations of the disorders of purine metabolism have been conducted for more than a century and a half in the borderland between biochemistry and medicine, illuminating both disciplines and reflecting their separate developments. These studies are a general model for work in other branches of human intermediary metabolism. It is hoped that the basic study of the inborn errors or metabolism will expand our knowledge of the defective gene and of its product, the enzyme protein. Clinical studies should aim to improve the prenatal, postnatal and carrier-state diagnosis of these disorders, and to improve their treatment by methods which can be made practicable and generally available at the clinical level.

Some aspects of the cell biology of normal and leukaemic haematopoietic cells are reviewed. Important points are: (a) normal and possibly also leukaemic stem cells differ from more mature cells in the kinetics as well as in cell surface antigens and other properties; (b) leukaemic cells are subject to a population size control as are normal haematopoietic cells; (c) part of the normal control seems to be chalone feedback regulation of proliferation and maturation rate of precursor cells; (d) evidence is accumulating that C-type oncornaviruses may cause leukaemia in man. Various experimental and established forms of therapy for leukaemia are discussed: No alterative exists to chemotherapy in acute lymphoid leukaemia. Granulocyte chalone may possibly become a valuable adjunct to other types of therapy in acute myeloid leukaemia. Immunotherapy may prove as efficient as maintenance chemotherapy in this disease. So far it has not been possible to synchronize leukaemic and normal cells so as to occupy different positions in the cell cycle. Nor has a forced maturation of human leukaemic cells been effected. Neither bone marrow transplantation nor prophylaxis by vaccination are considered worthwhile procedures for the time being. Anti-viral therapy has been promising in animal experiments, but animal leukaemias are often poor models for the disease in man.

Ia antigens and two different types of complement (C) receptors appeared on membrane surfaces in a distinct sequence during the maturation of human neutrophils. Taking advantage of the finding that neutrophil celll density increased with maturation, density gradient centrifugation was used to separate neutrophils into fractions that were greatly enriched in cells representing individual stages of differentiation. Myeloblasts, the earliest cells recognized in the myeloid series of both normal and myelogenous leukemic individuals, expressed Ia determinants, whereas Ia determinants were absent or diminished on the majority of promyelocytes and completely undetectable on more mature granulocytes. Double marker studies demonstrated that Ia determinants were lost from the membrane of developing myeloid cells before the appearance of any type of C receptor. In the next phase of maturation defined by surface markers, neutrophils acquired a CR2-type C receptor (C3d receptor) that was similar in specificity to CR2 of B lymphocytes. This stage of maturation approximately corresponded to the myelocyte-metamyelocyte stage defined by standard morphologic criteria, and preceded the third stage of surface marker maturation when developing neutrophils began to express CR1-type C receptors (immune adherence, C4b-C3b receptors) in addition to CR2. In the final stage of surface marker-defined maturation, CR2 was lost from high density polymorphonuclear neutrophils and CR1 was maximally expressed. Normal blood polymorphonuclear neutrophils contained only 17% of CR2-bearing cells and these were shown to be of lower density than the majority of neutrophils that expressed only CR1. There  was some variation in the correlation of surface marker expression and maturation stage defined by morphologic criteria, but in all cases the sequence of marker appearance was the same: Ia leads to CR2 leads to CR1CR2 leads to CR1.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273062"}

Results showed that the physical and mechanical behavior of the polyurethanes can be altered by variations in the basic composition of the material accomplished through changes in the ratio of Part A to Part B and by the addition of catalysts. Properties of compositions with low quantities of Part B (isocyanate) and no catalyst reached or approximated those parameters proposed as ideal goals to simulate living tissue. When preparing polyurethane material, proper mixing is essential to avoid entrapment of air and phase separation of the catalyst.

The proposed method for accurately determining the coordinates of given points in a three-dimensional space, along with the mathematical rigid body displacements to move these points into some predefined reference position, builds a complete model of the positional relationships of these points. On this basis additional information can easily be extracted, e.g., the distance between any two given points or the angle in degrees between any two given points or the angle in degrees between any three given points. An important advantage of the procedure is that the normally tedious calculations involved with distortions have been computerized, thus eliminating the tedium of repeated calculations. The possibility of calculation error is also reduced. Perhaps the greatest advantage to the investigator arises from the fact that once the procedural routine has been established and the computer programs written, the entire procedure can be done by technical personnel and does not necessarily require a large time committment from the principal researcher. Also, because of the normally small amount of time needed to read the coordinates and compute the inherent distortions, a set of computed distortions which appear unreasonable may be checked by repeating the entire set of coordinate readings and distortion calculations in a relatively short time.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273096"}

Twelve consecutive unselected patients (aged 6 to 18 years) with osteogenic sarcoma underwent 19 thoracotomies for resection of pulmonary metastases. Wedge excisions of 41 metastatic nodules, one bilobectomy, and one pneumonectomy were performed. Six patients each required one thoracotomy, five patients underwent two thoracotomies, and one patient required three. Serious surgical complications were limited to one patient who required reoperation for closure of a bronchopleural fistula following bilobectomy. Initial pulmonary metastasis occurred 9 months (mean) after amputation (range 1 to 21 months). Complete excision of all identifiable metastatic tumor was possible in 17 of 19 thoracotomies. All patients received intensive cyclical chemotherapy after initial definitive amputation, after thoracotomy, or both. Tumor doubling time (TDT) during chemotherapy (mean 74 days) was significantly prolonged (p = 0.017) compared to TDT during intervals of no therapy (mean 22 days). Five patients received pulmonary radiotherapy prior to thoracotomy and five after thoracotomy. Four patients died during the observation period, having survived 10 to 30 months after amputation. Two patients are alive with known extrapulmonary metastases. Six patients are free of disease. The survival rate is 91.7 percent 1 year after amputation, 82.5 percent at 2 years, and 57.8 percent at 3 years. These results suggest improved survival when aggressive surgical resections of pulmonary metastases are combined with chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Thoracic surgical procedures in this group of patients are safe and associated with a low incidence of complications despite the potentially increased risks owing to antecedent chemotherapy and pulmonary irradiation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273131"}

We undertook a prospective trial to evaluate terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase activity as a predictor of responsiveness to vincristine and prednisone in 22 Philadelphia-chromosome-positive patients with blastic chronic myelogenous leukemia. Thirteen patients were transferase positive, and nine negative. None of the nine negative patients responded, whereas eight of the 13 positive (P = 0.004) responded with complete clearing of peripheral blood blast cells and a return of normal marrow cellularity with less than 5 per cent blast cells. Among transferase-positive patients under 50 years of age the response rate was 78 per cent. Blast-cell morphology (i.e., lymphoblastic versus myeloblastic) had no significant correlation with either responsiveness or terminal transferase activity.

Electrophysiological recordings from all three types of transplants showed changes similar to those reported for effects of adrenergic and and cholinergic inputs in situ. Pharmacological studies with the transplants indicated that these electrophysiological changes were caused by activation of local muscarinic cholinergic and beta-adrenergic synapses.

Muscimol, a structural analogue and potent agonist of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), was used in its tritiated form for the autoradiographic localization of GABA receptors in the rat central nervous system. [(3)H]Muscimol ([(3)H]M) was incubated with brain slices or was injected intracortically or into intraocular brain transplants. As indicated by [(3)H]M binding and autoradiographic silver grains, GABA receptors display a laminar distribution over the cerebellar cortex, cerebral cortex, and hippocampus (in order of decreasing quantity); and a nonlaminar distribution in the caudate nucleus and substantia nigra. [(3)H]M binding was not affected by brief prior treatment of brain slices with (-)nipecotic acid or guvacine, two potent inhibitors of GABA uptake, indicating receptor binding specificity. Systemic administration of unlabeled muscimol interferred with binding of [(3)H]M binding subsequently administered in vitro, indicating that muscimol or a metabolite of it traverses the blood/brain barrier and binds to receptor sites, possibly in a manner competitive with [(3)H]M. [(3)H]M binding was greatest in the cerebellum. Quantitative analyses of the distribution of autoradiographic silver grains in the cerebellar cortex and dentate nucleus showed a general distribution of GABA receptors in the neuropil: molecular layer > granular layer > cerebellar nuclei > white matter. The highest binding of [(3)H]M occurred on the Purkinje cell somatic surface, in the basket axon formation surrounding the cell body and its axon initial segment, and somewhat less on basket and stellate cell somata. Neuroglial cells of the cortex have no [(3)H]M binding capacity; some glial cells in the cerebellar nuclei do. The role of glial cells in GABA uptake, metabolism, and GABA-receptor-mediated mechanisms remains to be clarified.

Treatment of eggs with the putrescine synthesis inhibitor alpha-methylornithine from the onset of development led to developmental arrest at gastrulation and to an abnormally low content of putrescine in the treated embryos.

{"pmid": "273216", "title": "The molecular mechanism of excitation in visual transduction and bacteriorhodopsin.", "content": "The molecular mechanism of excitation in visual transduction and bacteriorhodopsin. An electronic theory of excitation is proposed and described in terms of a three-dimensional excited/ground-state energy surface which elucidates the photochemical and excited-state dynamics of rhodopsins. In this theory the primary action of light is to produce significant electron redistribution in the retinal, thereby generating new interactions that vibrationally excite and perturb the ground-state protein conformation. Thus, light energy causes charge redistribution in the retinal and induces transient charge-density assisted bond rearrangements (such as proton translocation) in the protein structure which is stabilized by subsequent retinal structural alteration. In this theory the isoprenoid chain of the retinal is considered a structurally pliable molecular entity that can generate charge redistributions and can be subsequently achieve intermediate conformations or various isomeric states to minimize the energy of the new protein structure generated by light. Thus, the 11-cis to all trans isomerization of the retinylidene chromophore is not considered a primary mechanism of excitation. An alternate biological role for this molecular process (which is eventually completed in all photoreceptors but not in bacterial rhodopsins) is to provide the irreversibility needed for effective quantum detection on the time scale of a neural response. Finally, it will be demonstrated that this mechanism, which readily accounts for the photophysical and photochemical data, can also be restated in terms of the Monod, Wyman, and Changeux terminology suggesting that aggregates of these pigments may function allosterically.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273216"}

We show that it is possible to obtain (fold) a compact globular conformation from a sequence of amino acids consisting of only glycines and alanines. Our results indicate that glycines play a central role in stabilizing globular structures by facilitating the formation of turns and by destabilizing helical structures. Using this simple two-amino-acid representation, which serves as a control experiment, we are able to obtain a conformation that resembles the native structure of pancreatic trypsin inhibitor, as closely as any obtained previously in folding studies. However, careful examination reveals that the true chain topology has not been reproduced here or in previous studies. We suggest that the discrepancies between calculated and observed structures are more significant than the similarities. The implications of these results for the validity of models for protein folding, the use of pancreatic trypsin inhibitor in folding studies, and the possible role of glycine in the evolution of protein structure are discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273217"}

The kinetics of photodissociation, monitored by following absorbance changes in the Soret band at 440 nm, are interpreted as corresponding to predissociation followed by a corssing into a dissociative state. Subsequent recombination of CO with the porphyrin system and protein structural transformations were monitored by use of a continuous He-Cd laser beam spatially coincident with the photolysis and Soret interrogation beams at the sample. We find that the latter events take place in three distinct time regions, depending on exciation pulse energy and repetition rate. Exictation of HbCO with a single pulse (0.8--5 mJ) results in a relaxation to the ground state with an associative first-order constant of 5 X 10(3) sec-1. With a 100-pulse train (approximately 7.5 mJ), a new decay grows with a rate constant of 63 sec-1.

Several snake venom neurotoxins are larger and more complex than the well-studied group of postsynaptic toxins exemplified by alpha-bungarotoxin. Several of these, exemplified by beta-bungarotoxin, show phospholipase A2 activity (phosphatide 2-acylhydrolase, EC 3.1.1.4) when tested in the presence of detergents. The high hemolytic activity of crotoxin, the neurotoxin of Crotalus durissus terrificus, in the presence of lecithin has been attributed to this activity. The phospholipase A2 activity of several snake venom proteins has now been compared under the physiological conditions of the hemolysis tests. It appears that only the basic component of crotoxin, B, is enzymatically active, and that its activity is not inhibited by component A under these conditions, or in the presence of deoxycholate. Phosphatidylserine is found to be digested more readily than egg white phosphatidylcholine; and also causes hemolysis in conjunction with much lower levels of crotoxin. In neither case is calcium required or stimulating. Phospholipase from Crotalus adamanteus, which is not neurotoxic, digests phosphatidylcholine more rapidly than does crotoxin, but phosphatidylserine more slowly; yet it is slightly less active than crotoxin in the hemolysis test with phosphatidylcholine, and much less with phosphatidylserine. The digestion of several phospholipids by either enzyme fails to release the expected protons in the absence of detergents at 37 degrees .beta-Bungarotoxin, highly neurotoxic, has negligible phospholipase A2 activity in the absence of detergents, and is almost nonhemolytic in conjunction with all phospholipids tested.Binding studies with (125)I-labeled compounds show that rabbit erythrocytes and ghosts have much greater affinity for crotoxin than for beta-bungarotoxin and do not bind Crotalus adamanteus phospholipase. The crotoxin complex is split in the course of binding, with only component B, the hemolytic component, becoming bound. It appears that the role of component A may be to diminish the nonspecific binding tendency of component B. Our data appear to be consistent with the concepts that affinity to membranes, particularly to specific sites on synaptic membranes, is the critical requirement for beta type neurotoxicity, and that this property, at least in some instances, has evolved from phospholipase A2 enzymes, but does not necessarily require retention and expression of enzymatic activity.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273221"}

Thus, duplex ring synthesis appears to occur in two asymmetric steps, with positive strand DNA first being processed from the tail of the rolling circle and circularized, before it acts as a template for negative strand synthesis. (ii) Late in the life cycle, as single-stranded circles are synthesized and virus particles are assembled, only one replicating intermediate is observed--the rolling circle with a single-stranded tail. At this stage, the number of rolling circles reaches a level of about 35 per cell. (iii) The net rate of polymerization in the rolling circle intermediates is about 200 nucleotides per sec.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273222"}

We report the relative stabilities, in the form of complex lifetimes, of complexes between the tRNAs complementary, or nearly so, in their anticodons. The results show striking parallels with the genetic coding rules, including the wobble interaction and the role of modified nucleotides S2U and V (a 5-oxyacetic acid derivative of U). One important difference between the genetic code and the pairing rules in the tRNA-tRNA interaction is the stability in the latter of the short wobble pairs, which the wobble hypothesis excludes. We stress the potential of U for translational errors, and suggest a simple stereochemical basis for ribosome-mediated discrimination against short wobble pairs. Surprisingly, the stability of anticodon-anticodon complexes does not vary systematically on base sequence. Because of the close similarity to the genetic coding rules, it is tempting to speculate that the interaction between two RNA loops may have been part of the physical basis for the evolutionary origin of the genetic code, and that this mechanism may still be utilized by folding the mRNA on the ribosome into a loop similar to the anticodon loop.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273223"}

Both regions encode RNAs whose sequence content exceeds the coding capacity of the region. These multiple transcripts are likely to function as mRNAs, because they are present on polyribosomes. The DNA segment 39.3--51.8 specifies 27S, 22S, and 18S RNAs. The genome sites specifying these three size classes were determined by hybridizations with seven different DNA fragments from this region of the genome. The 3' termini of all three size classes are specified by sequences near a common site, position 50.1. The 27S RNA includes sequences beginning near 39.3, the 22S RNA contains sequences from 41.0, and the 18S RNA includes sequences from approximately 45.3 on the unit genome.

Structural analogs of the methylated 5' end (cap) of eukaryotic mRNA, such as 7-methylguanosine 5'-monophosphate, specifically inhibit both GTP-dependent binding of Met-tRNAfMet and binding of globin mRNA to eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF-2). Addition of purified eIF-2 effectively relieves the cap analog-induced inhibition of globin mRNA translation. The analog competitively inhibits the function of eIF-2 and of mRNA in protein synthesis. Binding to eIF-2 of capped mRNA as well as noncapped mRNA, such as Mengo virus RNA, can be inhibited completely by free cap molecules, but much more cap is needed to inhibit binding of Mengo virus RNA. mRNA, whether or not it is capped, competitively inhibits the binding of Met-tRNAfMet to eIF-2. These results provide compelling evidence that eIF-2 recognizes mRNA. It is shown that binding of mRNA to eIF-2 is primarily at an internal sequence, and secondarily through the cap. A model for the function of eIF-2 is presented that can account for all these properties. This model can provide a molecular basis for the differential translation of mRNA species, whether or not they are capped.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273228"}

The single-stranded mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) displacement-loop initiation sequence (7S mtDNA) is hydrogen-bonded at the origin of replication in animal cell mtDNA. Analysis of 7S mtDNA from several cell sources indicates that this initiation sequence exists as a family of fragments of relatively discrete lengths. mtDNA from both mouse L cells and mouse liver has four major sizes of 7S mtDNA fragments, ranging from 500 to 580 nucleotides in length. The 5'-end region of each of these species is the same; thus, the size heterogeneity is due primarily to differences in length at the 3'-end of these molecules. By contrast, 7S mtDNA from both human KB cells and human liver exists in three major forms, ranging from 555 to 615 nucleotides in length, due to differences at both terminal regions. The mtDNA initiation sequence from Xenopus laevis oocytes also exists in at least two forms, 1350 and 1510 nucleotides in length. Thus, the maintenance of multiple forms of mtDNA initiation sequence appears to be a general phenomenon of animal cells, although the precise mechanism of synthesis or processing of these forms is variable. The sequence of 42 nucleotides at the 5'-end of 7S mtDNA from mouse L cells has been determined and found to be rich in dGuo and dThd residues, with no apparent palindromes or potential secondary structures.

The inability of bound label to reequilibrate completely with the medium was demonstrated further by preincubating cells with labeled hormone prior to the initiation of saturation experiments. In such experiments, time-dependent changes in the binding properties of bound label were observed in Scatchard plots, as a result of the inability of prebound label to reequilibrate rapidly with the medium over the time course of such experiments. These data suggest that bound hormone may be distributed between at least two kinetic components.

Indirect immunoprecipitation of the polysomes with purified antibody to rat liver fatty acid synthetase and deproteination on sodium dodecyl sulfate-containing sucrose gradients gave an RNA fraction which, when translated in a cell-free system derived from wheat germ, yielded a major polypeptide of apparent molecular weight 225,000 when the translation products were analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate.

Protein synthesis in reticulocytes and their lysates is regulated by heme. In heme deficiency a heme-regulated translational inhibitor (HRI) that blocks initiation of polypeptide chains is activated. HRI is a protein kinase (ATP: protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) that specifically phosphorylates the 38,000-dalton subunit of the Met-tRNA(f) (Met) binding factor (IF), which forms a ternary complex with Met-tRNA(f) (Met) and GTP, a finding that suggests that the inhibition by HRI involves the phosphorylation of IF. We have investigated the effect of HRI in the partial reactions of protein chain initiation in which the IF-promoted binding of Met-tRNA(f) (Met) to 40S ribosomal subunits is enhanced by another initiation factor [ternary complex dissociation factor (TDF)] and AUG. The results show that HRI at very low concentrations markedly inhibits the binding of Met-tRNA(f) (Met) to 40S subunits. The inhibitory effect of HRI requires ATP. Under these conditions HRI phosphorylates only the 38,000-dalton subunit of IF. The TDF preparations not only promote the binding of the ternary complex to 40S subunits but also promote the dissociation of the ternary complex in the presence of 5 mM Mg(2+) at 0 degrees . The preincubation of purified IF alone with low concentrations of HRI and ATP does not significantly affect its capacity to form the ternary complex; however, the TDF-promoted dissociation of the ternary complex is inhibited. The nonhydrolyzable analog adenosine 5'-[beta,gamma-imido]triphosphate does not substitute for ATP. These findings suggest that phosphorylation causes a conformational modification in IF, which results in inhibition of the interaction between the ternary complex and TDF that is required for the binding of the ternary complex to 40S subunits.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273238"}

Factors controlling the changes in the vascular pattern of the ovary that occur during the reproductive cycle have been investigated. By using the rabbit cornea, the abilities of ovarian corpus luteum and of follicles to induce neovascularization have been compared. While the corpus luteum is capable of inducing neovascularization, the follicles do not have this ability. It is therefore likely that the corpus luteum actively participates in its own neovascularization by secreting a factor that we have called \"corpus leutem angiogenic factor\" (CLAF).", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273247"}

D. virilis H1 histone contains subfractions a, b, c, d, and e; D. novamexicana H1 contains subfractions a, b, and c. Therefore, satellites II and III might be correlated with H1d and H1e. To test the validity of this correlation, the H1 histones of polytene nuclei, which contain less than 1% satellite DNA, were analyzed. Polytene nuclei of D. virilis contain substantially decreased levels of H1c and H1e and marginally decreased levels of H1d. Polytene nuclei of D. novamexicana contain decreased levels of H1c.H1c is correlated with satellite I (common to D. virilis and D. novamexicana); H1e is correlated with satellites II and III; H1d is not correlated with any satellite DNA, because its level is virtually unchanged in polytene cells lacking detectable amounts of satellite DNA. Alkaline phosphatase digestion of the H1 histones reveals that H1c is the phosphorylated form of H1b and H1e is the phosphorylated form of H1d. Therefore, the under-replication of satellite DNAs is correlated with the decreased phosphorylation of H1 histones. In vitro, D. virilis H1 histones preferentially bind D. virilis DNAs in the progression III greater than II greater than I greater than main band, whereas D. virilis core histones do not preferentially bind any D. virilis DNA. As an extension of these results, we suggest that phosphorylated H1 histones bind D. virilis satellite DNAs in vivo and are involved in the compaction of heterochromatin.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273248"}

Hydra interstitial stem cells continuously give rise to daughter stem cells as well as precursors for nerve and nematocyte differentiation. Growth of the stem cell population is controlled by the self-renewal probability (Ps): Ps is the fraction of stem cell daughters that remain stem cells in each generation. We have determined Ps for Hydra interstitial stem cells by using a novel technique based on the cell conposition of clones. Stem cell clones were grown in aggregates of nitrogen mustard-inactivated Hydra tissue. They contain several hundred cells after 14 days of growth, including stem cells, differentiating nematocytes, and differentiating nerve cells. Clone size, size variability, and the ratio of differentiating cells to stem cells are sensitive measures of Ps. We have prepared standard curves relating these parameters to Ps, using computer simulations of clone growth. Comparisoon of the experimentally observed parameter of clones to these curves indicates that Ps decreases from 0.8 in 5- to 6-day clones to 0.6 in 10- to 12-day clones. The decrease in Ps coincides with the increase in clone size and suggest that Ps may be regulated by the density of stem cells in clones. Such a mechanism could be responsible for the observed homeostasis of stem cell populations in vivo.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273250"}

The X1 chromosome was found to be dosage-compensated, since the rate of RNA synthesis along the single X1 chromosome in males equaled that of both X1 chromosomes in females. Unlike other sex chromosomes that have been studied, the more recently evolved X2 heterochromosome exhibited regional differences in transcriptional activity when males and females were compared. The distal 10% of the X2 was not dosage-compensated, whereas the majority of an interior segment, representing 30% of the X2 chromosome's length, was found to be dosage-compensated. Our data are consistent with the idea that the evolution of X2 dosage compensation has paralleled the differentiation of the X2 sex chromosome.

Two human choriocarcinoma cell lines were shown to be deficient in adenosine deaminase (ADA; adenosine aminohydrolase, EC 3.5.4.4) such that they did not produce bands on starch gels after electrophoresis and histochemical staining. Radiometric assay indicated that their ADA specific activity was approximately 2% that of HeLa (human) cell controls. Subclone analysis of one of the lines indicated that this deficiency was representative of individual cells of the line. After fusion of these cells with mouse fibroblasts having high ADA activity, most independently isolated hybrid clones expressed one of two, or both, additional (to the mouse) bands of ADA activity after electrophoresis. The expression of these extra bands in hybrids was dependent upon actual fusion. The phenomenon was observed in 30 of 45 independently derived hybrid clones from four different fusion experiments involving two different parental lines from each species. The pattern of appearance of the extra bands in independent hybrid clones and the tendency of a hybrid clone to lose one of the extra bands through subsequent passages suggests that the bands were the products of human genetic material. The extra bands electrophoretically comigrated with human ADA 1 and 2 from human ADA-1-2 heterozygotes and the faster-migrating of the two extra bands comigrated with human ADA 1 from HeLa cells. Therefore, we suggest that the bands appearing in hybrids are the products of the 1 and 2 alleles of the human ADA locus. The human cells used for fusion were deficient in ADA activity but contained the genetic information for ADA 1 and 2. Fusion with mouse cells having ADA activity resulted in the activation of both human gene products coded for on separate homologous chromosomes.

Stimulation of animals with 2,4-dinitrophenyl-keyhole Limpet hemocyanin produces a response by 14 days is similar to the peak response inititated by 2,4-dinitrophenyl-guinea pig albumin. With time, however, basic IgG2 populations are added to the response. By days 28-35, when the anti-hapten response has reached a plateau, the major subpopulation of antibody is neutral IgG2, but there exists several times as much basic IgG2 as IgG1. These data suggest that antigen-responsive cells may be ordered into groups having different thresholds of activation.

No remarkable differences in both Ts and TLI were noted between haematologically normal subjects and patients with increased effective erythropoiesis (haemolytic anaemias), suggesting that the cell cycle time is not principally altered under the augmented erythropoiesis. In pernicious anaemia, Ts of basophilic erythroblasts was significantly shortened and TLI was elevated above normal. Normalization of erythropoiesis by vitamin B12 was associated with a transient increase of TLI in polychromatic erythroblasts, which was interpreted to reflect prevention of intramedullary premature death of basophilic megaloblasts. Erythroleukaemia showed a markedly prolonged Ts and lowered TLI indicating the presence of cells with prolonged cell cycle time. These findings contrasted to that of pernicious anaemia despite certain morphological as well as functional similarities.

A series of 69 eyes in which silicone oil injection was used to treat retinal detachment with massive preretinal retraction was reviewed with respect to retinal re-attachment and visual function. The selection of patients for treatment with silicone oil injection was influenced by the poor prognosis with conventional methods, the high incidence of postoperative complications after silicone oil injection, and the prognosis of the fellow eye. Although silicone oil injection is not an ideal method of re-attaching the retina, it remains the only successful method in many cases of massive preretinal traction. In cases in which the fellow eye is defective or is at risk of becoming so, we believe that the injection of silicone oil is fully justified.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273330"}

The three indications for vitrectomy are opacity causing severe visual deficit, vitreo-retinal traction causing or threatening retinal detachment, and displacement of the vitreous from its normal position. The types of pathology which cause opacity and/or traction and which are amenable to treatment by closed vitrectomy are lens changes or lens/iris remnants, opaque vitreous gel, ochre membranes, transgel traction bands, posterior hyaloid membranes, and epiretinal membranes. Closed vitrectomy has superseded the open sky method because the integrity of the cornea is preserved, the crystalline lens can be preserved, the intraocular pressure can be regulated, and the visualization and access to the posterior segment are good. More than 200 closed vitrectomies have been carried out at this hospital since 1974, using the Machemer VISC VII, the Douvas Rotoextractor, and the Peyman Vitrophage.

The tripod posterior chamber lens is free of some of the problems associated with other intraocular lenses, especially pupil block glaucoma, hyphaemata, and the contact with plastics of the corneal endothelium.

Methacrylate surfaces adhere to corneal endothelial cell membranes and appear to tear off the cell membranes as they separate. This adhesion appears to cause much of the massive cell damage seen at the time of intraocular lens insertion even in the hands of several groups of very experienced implant surgeons. The damage appears correlated with the incidence of endothelial touch, and may be avoidable both by avoiding contact, even for a brief period, between the endothelium and the intraocular lens during insertion, and by increasing the safety of such lenses through a hydrophilic protective coating which would give a surface similar to human lens epithelium or soft contact lens material which does not damage the endothelium. It is possible that similar damage also plays a role in causing abdominal adhesions through contact with rubber gloves, as well as venous thromboses and urethral strictures.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273337"}

Class V cavities were prepared in 24 premolars and filled with silicate cement (Bio-Trey). Four cavities were unlined, the rest of the cavities were lined with 1 or 2 layers of Copalite before insertion of the restorations. After 6 months, 70-100 microns thick longitudinal sections of the teeth were studied by polarized light microscopy, microradiography and electron probe microanalysis. When imbibed in water or quinoline, a subsurface zone of altered birefringence was noticed in nearly all cavity walls. Nearly half of the cavity walls in the experimental groups showed a surface zone of increased radiopacity. In a few instances a subsurface radiolucent zone was present. By electron probe microanalysis F (0,4-3% by weight), Zn (1-4%) and Al (0,2-6%) were measured in the outer 10-60 microns of the cavity walls. The study shows that even with a double layer of Copalite, known to prevent microleakage, a desirable uptake of F and Al from silicate restorations into cavity walls can take place.

In samples from both patients and normal persons, electrophoretic patterns of nonspecific esterase activity using alpha-naphthyl acetate and alpha-naphthyl butyrate were similar, and the esterase bands were weakly inhibited by fluoride. Lysolecithin extracts of specific esterase showed similar electrophoretic patterns for patients and normal subjects. However in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide extracts of specific esterase, 11 bands were seen in preparations from all of the patients with chronic granulocytic leukemia. In preparations of normal polymorphonuclear leukocytes, only eight bands were visualized. The results are consistent with an interpretation that these fast-moving components of specific esterase in chronic granulocytic leukemia granulocytes are present in normal polymorphonuclear leukocytes, but in quantities too small to be visualized with the technics used.

When the subjects made a slight inspiratory effort (\"assist\" mode), the cords opened widely during inspiration. There were large increases in flow and tidal volume in the \"assist\" mode compared with passive ventilation. Measurements of transdiaphragmatic pressure and esophageal pressure showed that these variables did not increase with the slight assist. Thus, increase in ventilation during the \"assist\" mode appeared to be due to alleviation of inspiratory obstruction at the level of the vocal cords. The same phenomenon was observed in the patient during phrenic nerve pacing. A pacemaker was designed to be triggered by the electromyographic impulse from an accessory muscle of respiration.

The team approach lends itself to full exploitation of all the centralized sophisticated cancer machinery, be it in the form of equipment like cell-trifuges and linear accelerators, a range and depth of cancer monitoring aids, or a medical record system aligned to a computer, with consequent immediate and long-term therapeutic gain to patients. For the State there is greater efficiency and hence economy. In teaching, the aggregation of all matters relating to cancer therapy presents enhanced opportunities for training of technicians and scientists and nurses as well as doctors, for postgraduate instruction, and for continuing education. For progress in understanding cancer, it is clear that clinical research in conjunction with the combined approach in cancer centres can be conducted with sufficient numbers of patients to give statistical credence to clinical trials.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273398"}

Neither direct arteriovenous anastomosis nor an interposition mandril graft was successful in any patient.

Major advances in the understanding of clinical tumour biology occurred with the appreciation that tumour-associated substances circulated in the blood of cancer patients. In this study their origin and immunogenic function have been investigated. Whole tumour cells (WTC) and cancer cell membrane fractions (CMF) of 24 patients with lung, colon, and breast cancer were investigated for their antigenic effect upon the patients' own lymphocytes and upon healthy allogeneic ones. The antigenicity of whole lung and breast cancer cells to stimulate lymphocyte DNA synthesis, and the ineffectiveness of colon cells were confirmed. CMF had little stimulating effect upon autologous lymphocytes; however, they were able to augment lymphocyte response to PPD and PHA in high dilution and to suppress it in high concentration. The serum of cancer patients exerted similar biphasic activity upon PPD and PHA stimulated lymphocytes (\"lymphosuppressive-stimulatory factors\", or LSSF). Sephadex studies confirmed that LSSF activity in cancer serum correlated with circulating CMF. These substances modulate lymphocyte nucleic acid synthesis in vitro; it is likely that they similarly modulate the patient tumour-host cell relationship.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273408"}

Hyperosmolar plasma gave significantly better preservation than isosmolar plasma, but the results were only marginally superior to those already obtainable with isosmolar albumin solution. No further improvement in preservation by albumin perfusion was obtained with the hyperosmolar formulations.

In two cases postmortem examination disclosed cerebral leukostasis. Analysis of the records from the MRC's fourth and fifth acute myeloid leukaemia trials showed that in the first week after diagnosis mortality was five times greater in patients with blast counts above 100 X 10(9)/1 than in patients with lower counts. Age and platelet count did not explain this excess. The mean haemoglobin concentration in the patients with high blast counts who died within the first week was 10.5 +/- 2.8 g/dl, which was significantly higher than that in the surviving group (7.6 +/- 2.4 g/dl). Only half the patients received chemotherapy within two days of diagnosis. Leukostasis is an important cause of early death in patients with high blast counts, and the increase in viscosity produced by transfusing to a haemoglobin concentration above 10 g/dl may lead to sudden deterioration.

Forty-five cases of osteosarcoma were studied for transepiphyseal spread of the lesion because of the current interest in local resection and chemotherapy as treatment of this disease. In 17 cases, the epiphyseal plate had closed and all 17 had transepiphyseal extension of the tumor. In 28 cases, the epiphyseal plate was open; 21 showed growth or microscopic evidence of transepiphyseal extension of the lesion. The most common method of extension was directly through the epiphyseal plate along vascular channels, or less commonly, about the epiphyseal plate beneath the perichondrium and into the epiphysis along the epiphyeal vascular channels. The majority of these extensions were not detectable by either conventional radiography or radioisotope scanning. Local resection with preservation of the epiphysis will, in all likelihood, leave residual disease despite the oft-quoted statement that an open epiphyseal plate is a biologic barrier to the extension of bone tumors.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273469"}

Three children with ALL having poor prognostic features developed clinical and laboratory evidence of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Two developed a bleeding diathesis associated temporally with a rapid drop in blast cell counts during induction therapy with L-asparaginase, prednisone, and vincristine. One of these children died of massive cerebral hemorrhage. The third patient developed episodes of superficial thrombophlebitis associated with relapses and rising blast cell counts which responded to chemotherapy and treatment with heparin. The unusual association of ALL with DIC and the fact that all 3 patients had multiple poor prognostic signs have led us to monitor carefully the coagulation system and withhold L-asparaginase in patients with massive disease until the white cell count and organomegaly have responded to prednisone and vincristine. The more common association of DIC with non-lymphocytic leukemia and recent reports of the presence of the Ph' chromosome in children with leukemia morphologically resembling ALL suggest that chromosomal evaluation be done in selected leukemic patients.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273470"}

Flow rates of oxygen into the bag were varied: 5, 10, 15, and 20 liter/min. For each flow rate, bag refill (reexpansion) times were varied: 1, 2, 4 sec. The results show that such a maneuver will effectively increase the FDO2 of the bags at all flow rates tested--in certain instances to values greater than 0.8. This maneuver would be important to resuscitation situations where it is desirable to achieve better patient oxygenation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273497"}

As part of the development of a life support stretcher for transportation of critically ill patients, a portable ventilation system was developed. This system was used successfully during transportation of 6 of 11 patients who required ventilatory assistance and who were being considered for extracorporeal membrane oxygenator support. Immediately after transportation, PaCO2 values were significantly lower (p less than 0.05) in patients ventilated with this system, when compared to PaCO2 values of the remaining 5 patients in whom ventilation was assisted with a 2-liter anesthesia bag (PaCO2 = 58.7 +/- 3.6). This system offers significant advantages over other presently manufactured systems, including low cost, portability, and efficiency in terms of oxygen utilization. (Manual ventilation is supplied so that no auxiliary electrical power supply is necessary.) Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) can be varied by 2.5 cm H2O increments using a commercially available, weighted ball valve. In addition, it has been useful for transporting patients with acute respiratory failure within the hospital for therapeutic maneuvers or diagnostic studies.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273498"}

Only 15 per cent of those who had toothache did seek dental advice for it. This represented a waste and an impairment in the quality of life. It is proposed that estimates of days of dental pain could prove an index of the quality of life of a population.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273571"}

Distances of this order may not correspond to the averaged electron micrographic data. The events leading to close approach of parts of cells are discussed in terms of electrical parameters, with an emphasis on the surface heterogeneities of cellular adherends. The distinct phenomenon of cell detachment is not simply the reverse of cell adhesion, and must be measured by different techniques. The effects of various pathophysiologic factors on cell attachment and detachment is discussed, with illustrative examples of direct and indirect factors. These include regeneration, degeneration, metabolic inhibitors, endotoxin and antisera. It is concluded the stability of the union between cells and teeth represents a delicate balance between factors promoting contact and initial adhesions, factors strengthening the adhesive interphase and factors promoting separation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273572"}

Persistent asymptomatic lesions in any portion of the oral cavity, except the lip, that were considered clinically suspicious with our previous criteria (erythroplasia), or those changes that did not correspond to the visual criteria but were found in high risk sites, were studied and biopsies were performed. Degrees of redness versus whiteness and clinical diagnoses were documented. Of 148 lesions in 113 patients, 66 were malignant (52 invasive and 14 in situ). There was a false negative diagnostic rate of 4.5% (3 of 66) and a false positive rate of 7% (4 of 57). Of the malignant lesions, 86.3% were primarily red compared with 31.9% of the benign lesions. OF the cancers, 10.7% were predominantly white as opposed to 66.7% of benign lesions.

The proportion of the drill material transferred to the bone varied widely, depending on the type of the drill, its previous usage, and on the specific element considered. Most of the drills transfer a few microgram of iron to the bone, together with smaller quantities of cobalt, tungsten, and chromium. The total quantity of material transferred to the bone from new drills exceeded that of old drills. Almost invariably, the second drilling transferred less material than did the first, even with used drills.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273665"}

To overcome some of the disadvantages of the mandibular body ostectomy, a sliding osteotomy accomplished by parallel sectionings of the mandible in the regions of the first premolars was used for the treatment of mandibular prognathism in two cases. The osteotomy was performed by an intraoral approach without any damage to the contents of the mental foramen. The anterior segment could be moved back to any desirable position without losing optimum bony contact. An adequate blood supply to the anterior segment was maintained by a large area of periosteal attachment on the lingual side.

Cavity preparations that are finished with hand instruments allow significantly less marginal leakage than those which are completed only with rotary instruments. This does not mean that hand-instruments walls are perfectly smooth; it only means that these walls allow less marginal leakage. Cavity preparations restored with composite resin showed more marginal leakage than those restored with amalgam. Also, the degree of marginal leakage was greater in cavity preparations restored with composite resin than in those restored with amalgam. Cavity preparations are more prone to marginal leakage at sharply defined cavosurface acute angles than at the smooth or straight surfaces of the cavity. This pattern of marginal leakage was true for both amalgam restorations and composite restorations, but the degree of marginal leakage was greater when composite resin was used as a restorative material. Since less marginal leakage was found in the finished cavity preparations, it is obvious that all cavity preparations must be finished with hand instruments. This may not completely eliminate the problem of marginal leakage, but it will reduce the potential secondary caries both in degree and frequency. Also, since sharply defined acute angles did exhibit more marginal leakage, this part of the cavity preparation needs special attention. With amalgam and composite restorations at least, these angles should not be sharply defined but should be slightly round, so that better condensation of restorative materials can be obtained. This may reduce the degree of marginal leakage.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273692"}

Some principles must be modified because of the defect and the character and position of the remaining structures. The defect, in conjunction with the remaining structures, must be used to provide support, retention, and stability of an obturator prosthesis. If basic prosthodontic principles are applied the size and extension of the obturator will be determined, and the extensive variation so commonly seen in obturators will be minimized. Acceptable prosthodontic care for the patient with the acquired maxillary defect should include cautious prosthesis design combined with routine maintenance care to provide comfort, function, cosmetics, and minimal change to the compromised remaining structures.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273694"}

The following were valuable in the assessment of patients with oliguria: urine sodium concentration (UNa) and osmolality, coagulation studies and high dose intravenous urography. Patients presenting with a high UNa or a coagulation abnormality were more likely to have ARF. Central venous pressure monitoring was helpful in the initial management but the administration of diuretics was not. Twenty patients with ARF were treated conservatively and the remainder by dialysis. Infection was both the commonest complication of ARF and the most frequent cause of death. Seventy percent of those with ARF died. Death was more common in the elderly or patients with a medical aetiology. The mortality of ARF remains high in spite of advances in the management of its metabolic and infective complications because of the acceptance of more high risk patients. An improved awareness of the preventable causes of oliguria is apparent.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273781"}

The practice of abortion and infanticide in pre and early European New Zealand is confirmed. The reasons for these practices and the methods used are discussed in relation to early Maori attitudes and mythology. There is much evidence to support the conclusion that both infanticide and induced abortion were widely practiced in pre- and early-European New Zealand by the Maoris.  Reasons for the practice of both abortion and infanticide were more often social than medical.  The desire to stay young, fertility control, and the fear of social disgrace are cited as some reasons why abortion was practiced.  Methods of inducing abortion included drugs, religious methods, and constrictive belts.  Infanticide was practiced as revenge by a mother on a wondering husband or as a means of matching the population to the food supply.  Because female babies were less highly valued than males, it was females who were almost always killed.

In normal subjects, 10am ambulant PRA was significantly related to plasma angiotensin II levels but not related to daily urine sodium exretion in these subjects consuming normal diets. PRA was suppressed in patients with mineralocorticoid hypertension and in a small proportion of patients with essential hypertension. Very high values were observed in patients with untreated primary adrenal insufficiency, treatment of which resulted in a prompt fall of PRA to normal. PRA was usually normal in adrenalectomised patients and those with chronic adrenal insufficiency receiving satisfactory steroid replacement therapy. It is concluded that provided standardised conditions are used for the collection and assay, PRA is helpful in the assessment of hypokalaemic hypertension as well as in the early detection and management of patients with primary adrenal insufficiency or related conditions of salt wasting.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273802"}

The order perturbation is studied as a function of temperature and lateral pressure by using Landau--de Gennes theory and a variational procedure. It is concluded that, for a given lateral pressure, the greatest amount of boundary lipid is present at the lipid phase-transition temperature. A critical point for the phase transition occurs, near which the amount of boundary lipid increases dramatically.

The RNA molecules initiated and labeled in vivo and elongated in vitro were then selectively purified on a thiopropyl 6-B Sepharose affinity column. The procedure was shown to be free of artifacts since the addition of mercurated nucleotides and the retention on the affinity column is mediated by the endogenous RNA polymerase II (nucleoside triphosphate:RNA nucleotidyltransferase; EC 2.7.7.6), is sensitive to actinomycin D, and is dependent on the presence of all four ribonucleotide triphosphates. This general procedure was applied to the mapping of viral promoters late after adenovirus 2 infection of HeLa cells. RNA purified as described above was hybridized to restriction enzyme fragments attached to nitrocellulose filters. The 5' ends of the nascent RNA chains are located in coordinates 9.5-17 for a rightward transcript, 0-25 for a leftward transcript, and possibly 60-70 for a second rightward transcript.

The kinetics of acetylcholine-receptor-mediated efflux of inorganic ions from electroplax microsacs of Electrophorus electricus in the presence of varying alkali metal ion concentrations on both sides of the membrane have been investigated. The efflux, a monophasic process when the ion distribution is symmetrical (the same concentrations and types of ions on both sides of the membrane), becomes a biphasic process, consisting of a very rapid initial release of ions followed by a slower first-order process, under conditions that resemble the physiological state of the neural membrane (potassium ions inside the microsacs and sodium ions on the outside). The initial phase of the efflux discriminates between calcium and sodium ions and is inhibited by potassium ions in the external solution. The rate constant associated with this phase is at least 40 times larger than the rate constant associated with the slower efflux. Both phases depend on the concentration of acetylcholine or carbamoylcholine, and are inhibited by receptor inhibitors (d-tubocurarine and alpha-bungarotoxin).A simple model is proposed which relates the kinetics of the flux to ligand-induced conformational changes in the receptor. We also indicate the relationship between the biphasic kinetics of the flux observed in microsacs to \"desensitization,\" the phenomenon in which, on addition of acetylcholine, the transmembrane voltage of muscle and nerve cells first increases and then decreases to its resting value within a few seconds.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273901"}

The results showed that the reconstitution reaction consists of two processes in which the direction, timing, and rate of assembly are different. Rapid elongation of particles toward the 5' end of the RNA proceeds in the first 5-7 min to give intermediate particles of 260 nm in length in which only the 5' terminus of the RNA is encapsidated. The subsequent process requires 30-50 min, is accompanied by a slow increase in turbidity, and gives rise to rods of the full length, 300 nm. The 3' terminus becomes RNase resistant by this process with concomitant development of ribonuclease-resistant infectivity, showing that the 3'-distal portion of the RNA is encapsidated in the direction of 5' to 3'.

The cro protein binds to the same three sites in the right operator (OR) of bacteriophage lambda DNA as does the lambda repressor. Dimethyl sulfate protection experiments reveal major groove contacts for both proteins, and cro protein protects from methylation a subset of those purines protected by lambda repressor. These experiments also show that the relative affinity of these two proteins for the three operator sites is different: whereas lambda repressor binds with an affinity OR1 greater than OR2 greater than OR3, the order for cro protein is OR3 greater than (OR1, OR2). As predicted by these results, cro protein, like the lambda repressor, blocks in vitro transcription of cI and cro from the two divergent promoters that overlap OR. Also as predicted, transcription of cI is turned off at lower cro protein concentrations than is transcription of cro, whereas the opposite order of repression is obtained with lambda repressor.

The levels of vitellogenin mRNA have been determined both by hybridization of total cellular RNA to vitellogenin cDNA and by translation of vitellogenin mRNA in a wheat germ cell-free system. The results obtained by both methods of analysis are in good agreement and indicate that vitellogenin mRNA is present in the liver of normal roosters at a level of 0-5 molecules per liver cell and increases in amount during the 3 days following injection of estrogen, reaching a level of almost 6000 molecules per cell at the peak of the response. The level of vitellogenin mRNA declined exponentially during the next 14 days with a half-life of 29 hr, reaching a level of less than 10 molecules per cell at 17 days after injection of the hormone. The levels of vitellogenin mRNA after stimulation with estrogen have been correlated with the in vivo rate of synthesis of the vitellogenin polypeptide.

This protein was specifically adsorbed to a concanavalin A column, and its migration on sodium dodecyl sulfate gels was enhanced after treatment with alpha-mannosidase (EC 3.2.1.24) or endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase C(II) or H. Similar results were obtained when mRNA was translated in lysates derived from first trimester placenta instead of in ascites cell extracts. Kinetic studies of the glycosylation reaction revealed that sugar attachment can occur just prior to release of the protein. These data show that the apoprotein of the alpha subunit can be glycosylated in vitro. The data also suggest that the glycosylated protein contains a sugar core consisting of di-N-acetylchitobiose and at least four mannose residues, some of which are alpha-linked. In addition, it appears that this carbohydrate unit is present in homologous placental membranes as well as in the ascites tumor membranes.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273908"}

Twenty-hour-exposure to fluorescent light produces chromatid breaks in a line of adult mouse lung cells grown in Dulbecco-Vogt medium supplemented with fetal bovine serum. The light-induced damage appears to be enhanced by increasing the concentration of oxygen in the gas phase of the culture. The effective wavelength(s) of light is in the visible range between 400 and 450 nm andis probably the mercury emission peak at 405 or 436 nm. Addition of catalase or glutathione with ascorbic acid to the culture medium reduced the number of chromatid breaks to a level not significantly different from that in the shielded cultures. It thus appears that the production of H2O2 in the culture medium or in the cell is responsible for the chromatid breaks. Most of the chromosomal abnormalities observed in long-term culture of mouse cells may result from exposure of cells or medium to fluorescent room lights in the presence of atmospheric oxygen. These genetic abnormalities can be minimized by shielding cells and medium from light, lowering the PO2 of the medium, and including reducing agents such as glutathione and ascorbic acid in the medium formulation.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273911"}

The unidentified inhibitor is destroyed by shaking the conditioned medium, by bubbling gas through the medium, or by heating or storing the medium in the absence of cells. The concentrations of lactic acid and ammonia that accumulate in conditioned medium inhibit growth when added to fresh medium. These results, together with earlier studies, indicate that density-dependent regulation of growth of BSC-1 cells results from the combined effects of (a) inhibitors formed by the cells, (b) decreased availability of receptor sites for serum growth factors as the cells become crowded, and (c) limiting concentrations of low molecular weight nutrients in the medium.

The carbodiimide-catalyzed conjugation of a 6700 molecular weight fragment of poly-L-lysine to radiolabeled human serum albumin or to horseradish peroxidase enhances the membrane transport of each protein into cultured mouse fibroblasts approximately 11- and 200-fold, respectively. At least 50% of the peroxidase activity remained after conjugation. Trypsinization and carbamylation of the two conjugates demonstrates that the enhancement of their cellular uptake is related to their poly-L-lysine content. Simple addition to the medium of comparable amounts of free poly-L-lysine has no effect on the transport of either native protein. Addition of poly-L-ornithine (molecular weight 200,000) at 3-30 microgram/ml, a condition known to cause enhancement of 125I-labeled human serum albumin uptake by mouse sarcoma cells, has no visible effect on the cellular uptake of native horseradish peroxidase. The intracellular localization of the enzyme-poly-L-lysine conjugate can be demonstrated cytochemically by either light or transmission electron microscopy. A concentration of conjugate that increases the uptake more than 200-fold does not cause any detectable morphological change suggestive of cell toxicity.

Calcium-dependent regulator protein is a low molecular weight (17,000), thermostable, calcium binding protein which is structurally homologous to skeletal muscle troponin C. This protein is present in all nonmuscle cells and has been shown to decorate stress fibers in interphase cells by indirect immunofluorescence. Using this procedure we have investigated the distribution of the protein during mitosis of eukaryotic cells. As the cells enter prophase, the distinct cytoplasmic localization disappears commensurate with the dissolution of the cytoskeleton. The regulator protein seems to be randomly distributed throughout the prophase cell, including the region around the condensed chromosomes. However, at prometaphase, it is localized in association with the half-spindles of the mitotic apparatus. Through metaphase and most of anaphase, the protein remains localized between the chromosomes and the poles of the spindle. During late anaphase the protein is also found in the interzone region but rapidly condenses into two small regions, one on each side of the midbody that separates the daughter cells. The regulator protein is not localized in the cleavage furrow during telophase, whereas actin is demonstrable in this region. Indeed, placement of the protein during mitosis is distinct from both that of actin and that of tubulin. The localization of calcium-dependent regulator protein during mitosis suggests that it may mediate the calcium effects on the mitotic apparatus and thus play a role in chromosome movement.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273915"}

This report describes the preparation and characterization of antisera to human trophoblast membranes. Rabbit antisera were raised to trophoblast microvilli prepared by differential ultracentrifugation. Antibodies to serum proteins were removed by solid-phase immunoabsorption with normal human serum, and indirect immunofluorescence experiments with cryostat sections of human placentas showed that the absorbed anti-trophoblast sera reacted with trophoblasts as well as with stromal cells and endothelium of chorionic villi. The antisera also produced membrane fluorescence when studied on viable lymphocytes and certain human cell lines. These anti-trophoblast sera were also lymphocytotoxic, and this reaction was abolished by prior absorption of the antisera with leukocytes. The leukocyte-absorbed anti-trophoblast sera retained their ability to react with trophoblasts and certain human cell lines, but no longer reacted with lymphocytes or placental stromal cells and endothelium. Two categories of trophoblast membrane antigens are thus defined: one present on trophoblasts and certain human cells lines (tentatively designated TA(1)), and the other on trophoblasts and lymphocytes, villous fibroblasts, and endothelium (tentatively designated TA(2)). A working hypothesis is proposed stating that normal pregnancy involves the generation of anti-TA(2) subsequent to blastocyst implantation and entrance of trophoblasts into the maternal circulation. This involves a mechanism similar to allogeneic cell stimulation and results in antibodies that block either the recognition or cytotoxicity of TA(1). Failure to mount this response allows TA(1) recognition and trophoblast immunopathology. Experimental and clinical studies in support of this working hypothesis, particularly involving abortion and toxemia, are cited from published reports.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273921"}

Two entities of HBeAg activity physicochemically different from each other were demonstrated in the serum of persons infected with hepatitis B virus. One was associated with a molecule that precipitated in 1.33 M ammonium sulfate solution, was larger than IgG, and had an electrophoretic mobility in the beta- to gamma-globulin regions and an isoelectric point of approximately pH 5.7. In contrast, the other HBeAg activity was associated with a molecule that was soluble in 1.33 M ammonium sulfate solution, was smaller than IgG, and had an electrophoretic mobility in the alpha-globulin region and an isoelectric point at pH 4.8.

Activation of the alternative pathway by sheep erythrocytes required removal or modification of at least 40% of the membrane sialic acid to reach threshold, and it increased proportionately when larger amounts of sialic acid had been affected. Studies with isolated proteins of the alternative pathway demonstrated that the altered erythrocyte membranes resembled natural activators in protecting bound C3b from inactivation by C3b inactivator and beta1H and protecting bound amplification C3 convertase (C3b,Bb) from decay-dissociation by beta1H. A 1% decrease in intact sialic acid was associated with a 1% decrease in beta1H activity in decay-dissociation of membrane bound C3b,Bb. Because removal of the C8 and C9 carbon atoms from the polyhydroxylated side chain of sialic acid by oxidation with NaIO(4) was functionally equivalent to removal of the entire sialic acid moiety, secondary effects of the latter reaction, such as diminution of the negative charge of the membrane or exposure of penultimate galactose residues, were not considered to be responsible for the altered activity of beta1H.

The most sensitive strains were derived from patients who had an early onset of neurological abnormalities; less sensitive strains were from patients with a later onset; and the most resistant strains were from patients without neurological abnormalities. The UV sensitivities of strains from each member of a sibling pair with xeroderma pigmentosum were identical, indicating that UV sensitivity of xeroderma pigmentosum strains is determined by the patient's inherited DNA repair defect.

The results showed that surface-bound Hageman factor was 500 times more susceptible than soluble Hageman factor to proteolytic activation by kallikrein in the presence of high molecular weight kininogen.

On a molar basis, trypsin was twice as potent as kallikrein in the cleavage of the surface-bound Hageman factor, while plasmin and activated Factor XI were an order of magnitude less potent than kallikrein.

This correlated with increasing adaptation or body (i.e., cellular) temperatures of 0 degrees, 5 degrees, 25 degrees, 34 degrees, and 37 degrees and suggested a partial compensation of membrane fluidity for environmental temperature that occurs over the evolutionary time period as well as during laboratory (seasonal) acclimation. Evolutionary adaptation of relatively stenothermal species to constant thermal environments resulted in a more complete compensation than laboratory (seasonal) acclimation. Each compensation is accompanied by differences in the saturation of membrane phosphoglycerides.

Lymphocytic and plasmacytic infiltration surrounding a malignant tumour probably represents an immunological response of the host directed against the neoplasm. Lymphocytic infiltration has a favourable effect on the prognosis in a number of human tunours, including cutaneous melanoma. The present study includes 326 consecutive cases of cholroidal melanoma which were examined for cellular infiltration. These data were then correlated with other histological parameters and with prognosis. An intense cellular infiltration was found in fifteen tumours (4.6 per cent) and a moderate infiltration in forty (12.3 per cent). Tumours with cellular infiltration were significantly larger and more vascularized than the remaining tumours, which may relate to the accessibility of the immune system to the tumour. There was a higher percentage of poorly differentiated tumours among those with cellular infiltration. However, it does not appear that cellular infiltration favourably influences the prognosis of choroidal melanoma, as 5-year survival rates did not correlate with the degree of cellular infiltration demonstrated by the primary tumour. Although choroidal melanomas are capable of inciting an immune response, this response is apparently ineffective in preventing metastastic spread.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/273996"}

Three out of seventeen patients with tumour diameters greater than 12 mm died of their disease with pulmonary and/or liver metastasis. Three eyes required enucleation and no residual tumour was found in two specimens. Three patients, average age 76 years, died from causes other than melanoma.

A present considered concept of growth hormone secretion is that the hormone is tonically inhibited by the hypothalamic tetradecapeptide somatostatin. The episodic fashion of GH secretion with 6-8 GH peaks per 24 hours and its modulation by light and sleep are probably governed by factors other than somatostain, one possibly being melatonin. Evidence for a GH-releasing factor also exists, causing a basal release pattern of GH in moderate hourly peaks. The regulotary peptides in their turn, and possibly the GH producing cell itself, are influenced by dopaminergic or noradrenergic neurons. GH secretion is also modulated in a not yet elucidated relation to serotonin activity. Furthermore, GH induced somatomedin may constitute a negative feed-back on the pituitary and/or hypothalamic level. In acromegaly and gigantism, conditions characterized by chronic hypersecretion of GH, the GH producing cells are less differentiated as indicated by their response with GH release to unphysiological stimuli as well as their cessation of GH release to stimuli that normally act as releasors of GH.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274037"}

There were 11 with intervillous thrombosis, and they had a significant reduction in infant birth weight and in placental content of DNA. A significant part of these (6) had asphyxia at birth. In neither of the groups was there proliferation of Langhans cells as a sign of longer lasting anoxia. The extent of villous fibrosis in the groups was the same as in the remainder of the material. It is concluded, that no evidence was found to support a theory that infarctions and intervillous thromboses have the same pathogenesis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274058"}

A blind histological examination of placentae, with regard to placentitis, was carried out of 2 prospective, selected materials. The first consisted of 283 placentae, which were selected with regard to optimal obstetric outcome. The second consisted of 160 placentae, randomized from all premature and low birth weight infants in the local area. Placentitis was sub-divided into: funisitis, chorionitis, villitis and hypercellular villi. Funisitis was found in premature infants only. Villitis resulted in the birth of significantly smaller infants and placentae, and must therefore, in contrast to funisitis and chorionitis, be considered chronic. Hypercellular villi are found to have no importance. Funisitis, chorionitis and villitis could possibly be explained by an infection in 10 of a total of 15 cases of placentitis.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274060"}

The stress/strain behavior at different strain rates and the creep rate of dental amalgams were evaluated and compared to the microstructure. The results indicate that substantial differences exist both in strength and strain at fracture. The strain at fracture for high strain rates was associated with the nature of the particle-matrix interface, in that amalgams with an interpenetrating interface exhibited some ductility, while amalgams with an abrupt interface exhibited practically no plastic deformation at fracture. The correlation between creep and slow compressive strength was verified and it was suggested that grain boundary sliding was the deformation mechanism in both cases.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274061"}

In the present paper an implantation technique is described whereby the effect of the surgical operation is eliminated and initial tissue reactions to materials may be studied. A teflon body was implanted intramuscularly in rabbits. After six weeks the overlaying tissue was excised and the implant removed. An intact, nonepithelialized tissue surface was exposed, which due to the shape of the implant showed three indentations. Materials were placed in the indentations for 15 minutes and the tissue reaction was registered by enzyme histochemical methods. Silicate cement, zinc phosphate cement and a 4% phenol solution caused an inhibition in the dehydrogenase enzyme activity in the tissue subjacent to the indentations. The severity of the tissue reaction, indicated by the width of the inhibition zone, varied among the test materials. Silicate cement caused the widest inhibition zone and the phenol solution the narrowest one. These results correlate well with previous tissue compatibility studies and indicate that the method is applicable for in vivo screening of initial tissue response to biomaterials.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274062"}

The quantities of remaining unreacted methacrylate groups were determined and the data expressed as percentages of the total amount of methacrylate groups in the unpolymerized materials. The specimens were specially prepared to ensure that the surface properties simulated the bulk properties of the polymerized composites. The quantities of remaining methacrylate groups in the six composites determined by this surface measuring technique ranged from 25 to 48%. The results demonstrate that commercially available composite materials exhibit different degrees of conversion 24 hours after the start of polymerization.

We have used this procedure as routine treatment for vertical maxillary excess over the past 5 years. Timing of the surgery is not so important in non-open-bite patients, and the procedure can be done with equal success before any orthodontic intervention, during orthodontic treatment, and following all orthodontic procedures. Timing is primarily dependent upon the orthodontist's desires. Since the surgery can produce a much simpler orthodontic problem, thus reducing treatment time and allowing a better over-all result, we recommend that it be done as early in treatment as possible. Clinically, the over-all improvement in facial appearance and the predictability and stability of the results have made this a most versatile and effective procedure when carried out with good planning, proper execution and attention to detail.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274071"}

Implants of killed freeze-dried Dunn cell cultures into the thigh muscles are resorbed and replaced by normal cartilage, bone, and bone marrow tissue, while implants of freeze-dried Ridgeway cells are resorbed and replaced by fibrous tissue only. Outgrowths of normal muscle septum connective tissue cells onto the stroma of Ridgeway tumors differentiate into fibrous tissue. Cultures of either tumor on a substratum of bone matrix stroma prepared from normal bone proliferate, assume a spherical shape, and perpetuate the transformed osteoblast-like cell without forming attachments or adapting to the contour of the substratum. Outgrwoths of muscle mesenchymal cells on the Dunn tumor stroma differentiate into cartilage. Dunn osteosarcoma cell cultures proliferate on the inside and produce deposits of normal bone (not tumorous bone) on the outside of diffusion chambers. Killed freeze-dried cell cultures produce transfilter deposits of normal bone and bone marrow, but the quantity is significantly lower. On a substratum of cellulose acetate, outgrowths of muscle connective tissue will differentiate into cartilage when cell-free Dunn stroma is present under the organ culture grid.

In contrast, an important variability of the chromosome set was demonstrated during the same period in leukemic cell lines. Moreover, in these lines, it was always possible to observe a nonsystemic pseudodiploidy. After 2 years, a clonal evolution was described in both types of cell lines that carried at least one marker.

The quantities of unlabeled and 14C-linear unit chains containing D-[14C]glucose at their reducing ends have been determined by paper chromatography followed by enzymic degradation and analysis. In the 30-min product, between 65 and 85% of the D-[14C]glucose groups were covered by unlabeled groups because of transferase action. In the 5-h product, the extent of covering approached 100%. Extensive redistribution of unlabeled groups also was found to have occurred, even in the early stages of the reaction. It is concluded that the D-[14C]glucose incorporation assay for amylo-(1 linked to 6)-glucosidase, as ordinarily carried out, is probably not specific just for the hydrolytic action of this enzyme, but that it depends indirectly on its transferase activity as well.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274178"}

Opposite variations of cAMP levels and LPL activity were only observed in WAT following high fat diet administration. The enhancement of LPL activity in BAT and in heart by cold acclimation or feeding an hyperlipidic diet was never associated with a decrease in cAMP content.

Core temperature progressively decreased over an 8 hour period reaching its lowest level just before death. Heart rate, cardiac output, and oxygen consumption also diminished over this period. The fractional distribution of the cardiac output to the pancreas, adipose tissue, burned and unburned skin and muscles fell sharply. Actual volume flow to the heart and brain also decreased while plasma FFA concentration exhibited little change. However, hyperglycemia was noted due in part to peripheral insulin resistance. Although plasma catecholamines increased during this trauma, their effect was muted by a low plasma pH and a rising lactic acid concentration. It is postulated that the destroyed peripheral temperature receptors, hypoxic areas of the brain, decreased blood flow through high metabolic areas and low oxygen and substrate utilization in the periphery brought about the hypometabolism.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274317"}

The relationship between differentiation of murine erythroleukemia cells (MEL) induced by DMSO and the cell division cycle has been analyzed. We demonstrate that incubation in the presence of DMSO increases the length of the G1 phase of the cell cycle. A method of synchronization of MEL cells by unit gravity sedimentation has been developed and characterized. Using this method, a series of synchronized cell populations covering the entire cell division cycle can be generated simultaneously. Cells synchronized by this technique were challenged with DMSO and analyzed for kinetics of commitment to the differentiation program. Our results indicate that populations of cells in G1 or G2 at the time of addition of inducer give rise to a greater proportion of committed cells than an unfractionated population, while cells in S phase result in a lower percentage of committed cells than the unfractionated population when cultured in DMSO.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274446"}

A new non-radioisotopic technique is described for measuring rates of intracellular formation by human leukemic blasts of 6-thioguanine nucleotide metabolites, obligatory intermediates in the antineoplastic action of both 6-mercaptopurine and 6-thioguanine itself. The method is both specific and sensitive, and involves combined high-performance liquid chromatography and flow fluormetric detection of oxidized 6-thioquanine nucleotides in alkaline permanganate-treated cell extracts. Non-metabolized 6-thioguanine and 6-thioxanthine are also separated and quantitated in this system, permitting complementary in vivo pharmacokinetic analysis.

Extensive resections of the mandible are usually carried out for malignat tumours or non-malignant tumours with a tendency to reccur, such as ameloblastomas. These hemi-resections include the ascending and horizontal ramus of the mandible. Such mutilations have serious functional and aesthetic consequences. In order to avoid these drawbacks we use two sorts of implants. The first are made from metallic and plastic materials. They are used when patients are too weak to support a bone graft, when there is insufficient soft tissue coverage, or when a recurrence of the tumour is feared. In order to be well tolerated they must be made of materials which are fully accepted by the tissues. For the plastic part we use methyl-methacrylate and, for the metal part, \"durallium\". The second type is used to maintain a bone graft in good position. It is completely metallic. The pattern is made in wax and reproduced in durallium. They are made and adjusted in the same way as plastic implants. The results are analysed separately covering two periods. In the first (1955-1967), the failures have been relatively large (25%).

The effect of puromycin on spinal cord regeneration was studied following implantation into the site of spinal cord hemi- or transection of Gel-foam saturated with puromycin (1 mM) in a saline carrier, implantation of Gel-foam sponge saturated with saline (carrier control), or lesion alone (lesion control). The spinal cords of 107 rats were studied with light and electron microscopy 7, 14, 30, 60 and 90 days postoperative (DPO). Spinal cord hemisected animals developed a dense cicatrix at the site of lesion replete with connective tissue, blood vessles, and myelinated and unmyelinated nerve fibres which could be traced to peripheral sources. Rostrally at the C.N.S.--cicatrix interface, there were reactive neuroglial cells, occasional nerve fibres and finger-like projections of spinal cord (due to cavitation lesions) which contained neuroglia, axons and dendrites. Implantation of saline in Gel-foam resulted in the same morphology as in hemisected animals except for increased lesion size due to mechanical factors and decreased cicatrix density during the first 30 DPO. Puromycin treatment resulted in a cicatrix with initial decreased cell density but which contained a new class of nerve fibres at 30 DPO. These nerve fibres were oriented in a rostro-caudal direction, were unmyelinated, 0.1-0.2 micron in diameter and had expanded smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Some of these nerve fibres were degenerating at 30 DPO and all were absent by 60 DPO. The puromycin-treated spinal cord within 200 micron rostral to the basal lamina contained nerve terminal conglomerates, which resembled boutons, in fascicles from 30-90 DPO (duration of experiment). Hemisection of the spinal cord by crushing 1-1 1/2 segments rostral to the site of puromycin implantation at 30 DPO resulted in degeneration of these nerve fibres in the cicatrix as well as the degeneration of nerve terminal conglomerates just rostral to the basal lamina. The regenerative capacity of the spinal cord is discussed in relationship to these findings.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274521"}

These findings provide a sound justification for the extra effort required to retain some natural teeth to provide overdenture services to patients. The fact that patients can masticate food more efficiently with overdentures than with complete dentures justifies the increased cost and time involved in their construction. The longitudinal effects that overdentures have on the basic physiopathologic processed involved in the progression of ridge resorption and the advantages of maintaining periodontal proprioception also should be studied.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274543"}

The Act prescribes a supervisory committee to oversee abortion decision-making, whereas most of the professional organizations favor the decision being an individual one by the woman or a joint woman-doctor decision.  Committees are feared by health professionals for the delay they cause.  Restriction of the grounds for granting abortions goes against the stated policy of all the health professional organizations.

When nurses were questioned, results showed a clear majority supporting the amendment allowing the woman and 2 financially independent doctors to decide.  However, when 1000 randomly selected individuals were questioned, approximately two-thirds favored a more liberal amendment allowing the woman and her physician to determine whether an abortion should be performed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274614"}

The 182 abortion cases referred to the Cook Hospital in Gisborne, New Zealand from November 1973 to December 1975 were analyzed in regard to referral patterns, operative methods, pregnancy duration prior to abortion, complication rates, and patient characteristics, including their contraceptive practices before and after abortion.  The results of the analysis were compared to data on a series of New Zealand women who obtained abortions in Melbourne, and to abortion data obtained from the Auckland Medical Aid Center.  The abortion rate among Gisborne residents increased markedly from 0.37/100 live births in 1969-1973 to 17.9/100 live births in 1976.  The 182 patients were referred to the hospital by 16 of the 19 doctors practicing in the areas, and in general, the % of patients referred by each doctor for termination was proportional to the % of patients delivered by that doctor at the hospital.  Of the 182 patients referred, 170 were subsequently aborted.  Most of these women were aborted by vacuum aspiration.  12% of the abortion patients were less than 21 years of age and 25% were over 30 years of age.  4.4% of the patients were nulliparous and 15.6% had 5 or more children.  46.8% were single.  Over 50% of patients used no contraception during the conception month.  Following the abortion, most patients practiced contraception.  20% were sterilized, 40% took oral contraceptives, and 13% used injectables.  75% of the patients who still live in the area continue to attend the hospital's family planning clinic.  Tables provide: 1) abortion rates for Gisborne residents, and 2) distribution of abortion cases by operative method, gestation duration, complications, parity, marital status, age, and contraceptive practice before and after conception.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274617"}

This paper analyses the distribution of metastases at every site of the human body in acute lymphoblastic, chronic lymphocytic, acute myeblastic and chronic myelocytic leukemias in patients that come to autopsy. It appeared that the 4 types of leukemia had a similar seeding frequency of the skin, breast, trachea, diaphragm and all other muscles. The highest incidence of metastases was found in the lymphatic system (i.e. all lymph-nodes and spleen). Acute lymphoblastic leukemia showed an excess of metastases in the major blood vessels, pleura, large intestines, extrahepatic biliary tract, ureters, prostate, cervix uteri, central nervous system, thymus, ovaries and pituitary. The excess of metastases at specific sites did not cluster either in topographical areas or in anatomical systems, with the exception of metastases in the central nervous and endocrine systems (acute lymphoblastic leukemia). Chronic lymphocytic leukemia showed an excess of metastases in all lymph nodes, kidney, adrenals and heart. A lymphatic route of dissemination, as opposed to a blood-borne spread of malignant cells, was hypothesised to account for the excess of metastases in the above mentioned organs in patients affected with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Soil specificity with the degree of anaplasia of leukemic cells may account for the higher than expected occurrence of metastases in a given organ, for a specific leukemia. This remark holds true particularly for acute lymphoblastic leukemia.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274679"}

The development of resistance by the Houghton strain of Eimeria tenella to the anticoccidial drugs amprolium, clopidol and methyl benzoquate has been studied. Resistance to amprolium and clopidol developed more readily in experiments where a large number of coccidia were exposed to the drug, either by increasing the number of oocysts in the inoculum or by increasing the number of birds in the group. When 45 birds were given 2.0 X 10(6) oocysts, resistance to amprolium and clopidol appeared after 6 and 7 passages respectively. In previous experiments, under similar conditions, resistance to robenidine developed after 6 passages, suggesting little difference between these three drugs. Resistance to amprolium and clopidol arose gradually as the concentration of drug was increased, but resistance to methyl benzoquate appeared in a single step from sensitivity to high-level resistance. Both amprolium and clopidol-resistant lines showed an 8-fold reduction in drug sensitivity.

The replacement of the distal valine by alanine in hemoglobin Sydney leaves a large gap inside the heme pocket, which is partly filled by a water molecule bonded to the distal histidine. Hemoglobin Sydney has the same partition coefficient between CO and O2 as hemoglobin A.

The mixture of both chains also behaves on Bio-Gel P-100 like native oxidized ricin.

Bacteriophage G4 has physically separated origins of synthesis of its viral and complementary DNA strands. Chain termination and \"plus and minus\" DNA sequencing methods have been used to obtain the nucleotide sequence of these two origins. The unique origin at which the complementary DNA strand is initiated has located in the untranslated region between genes F and G. This sequence, which has considerable secondary structure, contains a stretch which is complementary to the RNA primer that is observed during synthesis in vitro of the G4 complementary DNA strand [Bouché, J.P., Rowen, L. & Kornberg, A. (1978) J. Biol. Chem., in press]. This G4 origin shows extensive sequence homology with the bacteriophage lambda origin of DNA replication [Denniston-Thompson, K., Moore, D. D., Kruger, D.

Muscle and cytoplasmic actins from several species have been compared by extensive fingerprint analysis and by partial amino acid sequence determination with the known amino acid sequence of rabbit muscle actin. Although complete sequences have not been established, the following characteristics are apparent. (a) Cytoplasmic actins are the products of two different genes. The difference seen in isoelectric focusing studies is probably determined only by the nature of the three amino-terminal acidic residues. (b) Mammalian cytoplasmic actins are exceedingly similar and perhaps identical. (c) Cytoplasmic actins may differ by at least 25 amino acid replacement from rabbit muscle actin. These replacements have been identified for calf thymus actin; however, other cytoplasmic actins show the same replacements. (d) The replacements always involve-except for the first five residues-neutral amino acid residues. (e) The replacements are not randomly distributed. Residues 18-75 are constant whereas residues 2-18 and 259-298 show many substitutions. (f) The main component of smooth muscle actin from chicken gizzard shows the charge characteristics found at the amino terminus of the less acidic cytoplasmic actin species. In the rest of the polypeptide chain, gizzard actin resembles skeletal muscle actin, although two substitutions of the cytoplasmic type have been identified. (g) Heart muscle actin is very similar to skeletal muscle actin. Only two amino acid replacements have been found; they are of the cytoplasmic type.

From rat liver nuclei that had been incubated with NAD+, histones and some nonhistone proteins were extracted with 0.25 M HCl.

Incubation of reticulocyte lysates or isolated crude ribosomes with low levels of double-stranded RNA (0.1-10 ng/ml) induces the formation of an inhibitor of protein synthesis initiation similar to that observed in heme deficiency. The inhibitor is associated with a cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase activity (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) that phosphorylates the small polypeptide (38,000 daltons) of the eukaryotic initiation factor eIF-2. Activation of the inhibitor requires ATP in addition to double-stranded RNA and is accompanied by the phosphorylation of a 67,000-dalton polypeptide of unknown function. The inhibitor remains associated with the ribosomes during high-speed sedimentation. Once formed, the ribosome-associated inhibitor phosphorylates eIF-2 and inhibits protein synthesis in the absence of double-stranded RNA. Inhibition is prevented by exogenous eIF-2.

The enzyme was activated by double-stranded RNA and could be isolated by binding to columns of poly(I)-poly(C)-agarose. In the column-bound state, the enzyme reacted with ATP to synthesize the inhibitor, which could then be continuously eluted from the column. The inhibitor was purified and its structure and function were compared with those of the low molecular weight inhibitor of protein synthesis made by an enzyme from interferon-treated mouse L cells. The avian and mammalian inhibitors comigrated on thin layers of polyethyleneimine-cellulose during chromatography in three different solvent systems, and they coeluted as a series of peaks from columns of DEAE-cellulose during sodium chloride gradient elution. Digestion with bacterial alkaline phosphatase or snake venom phosphodiesterase yielded products that similarly comigrated. Functionally, the two inhibitors were interchangeable: both inhibited protein synthesis in extracts of mammalian and avian cells, producing 50% inhibition at a concentration of about 0.3 nM (AMP equivalents).

This protein was studied because it contains a single indole side chain which is deeply buried in an expandable oily region and because the phosphorescence of the homologous indole in bovine serum albumin could not be detected at ambient temperatures. The transient was identified on the following basis: (i) its triplet-triplet absorption spectrum was similar to those previously reported for indole and tryptophan; (ii) it was quenched by small quantities of oxygen; and (iii) it was photobleached by 370- to 700-nm light. In a nitrogen-saturated solution at room temperature, the indole triplet decays exponentially for more than a factor of 10 with a lifetime of 0.5 msec.

One of the 4S RNA species appears to be identical, by fingerprint analysis, to the tRNAMet1 isolated by hybridization of somatic cell RNA to this cloned tRNA gene fragment (tDNA). Thus, the tRNAMet1 produced after injection can be both fully processed and modified. Its rate of synthesis is estimated to be about 6 x 10(9) molecules/hr in each oocyte injected with 2 ng of tDNA. When the tDNA fragment is cleaved into two halves with restriction endonuclease Sst I, each injected half gives rise to a subset of the RNAs produced after injection of the intact fragment. This experiment thus suggests the presence of at least two transcriptional units on this cloned tDNA.

Treatment of genomic DNA with restriction endonucleases that do not cleave the ovalbumin mRNA sequence results in the generation of multiple DNA fragments capable of annealing with ovalbumin-specific probes in molecular hybridization reactions. These data strongly suggest that the linear order of DNA sequences coding for ovalbumin is interrupted by at least two intragenic DNA spacers absent from the corresponding RNA. At least one of these spacer sequences interrupts the coding sequence; therefore the chromosomal ovalbumin gene is not colinear with its translational product. We can discern no difference in the sequence organization about this gene in producer and nonproducer somatic cells, suggesting that the presence of intragenic spacers does not reflect that transcriptional activity of this gene. Furthermore, profiles obtained for gametes are identical to those observed for somatic cells, indicating that significant translocation during development is not responsible for the generation of this split sequence.

Information on the structure of binding sites of wheat germ agglutinin was obtained on the basis of fluorescence and phosphorescence changes of tryptophan residues induced by the binding of several thiomercuribenzoate derivatives of glycosides. The thiomercuribenzoate derivatives bind selectively to wheat germ agglutinin in the same way as the corresponding sugars. Using the thiomercuribenzoate of di-N-acetyl-beta-chitobiose, it was found that: (i) the fluorescence of tryptophan residues was drastically quenched at both 298 and 77 K; (ii) the phosphorescence intensity was strongly enhanced at 77 K; (iii) the phosphorescence lifetime was markedly decreased. A similar effect was observed with the thiomercuribenzoate of N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosamine. These changes were completely reversed upon addition of 1-O-methyl-di-N-acetyl-beta-chitobioside. The thiomercuribenzoate of beta-D-glucose had no effect at all, and the thiomercuribenzoate of tri-N-acetyl-beta-chitotriose had a limited effect. These results are interpreted as a specific heavy atom effect due to a close contact between one tryptophan residue of the protein and the heavy atom of the bound ligand. They are consistent with the view that: (i) binding sites of wheat germ agglutinin may be divided in three subsites, A, B, and C; (ii) a tryptophan residue is in the binding site at subsite C; and (iii) this residue and the ligand are in close contact. This new method, using the enhancement of spin-orbit coupling due to the selective perturbation induced in a tryptophan residue by a ligand containing a heavy atom, has proved to be suitable for locating the tryptophan residue in the binding site of wheat germ agglutinin and can probably be extended to other sugar-binding proteins.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274721"}

Nervous systems are composed of populations of cells that are synaptically connected in a highly predictable manner, and we have called two interconnected populations a pair of matching populations. Heritable genetic changes that affect a pair of matching populations can be evolutionary only when this matching quality is not disrupted. We distinguish two types of heritable change. Concordant heritable changes autonomously preserve the match and are thus automatically candidates for what we call type I evolutionary change. Nonconcordant heritable changes, on the other hand, are those that do not autonomously preserve the match. Those nonconcordant heritable changes that can use other normally present ontogenetic mechanisms to preserve the match are candidates for what we call type II evolutionary change. One example of such an ontogenetic mechanism consists of the production of excess neuroblasts and the subsequent weeding out (via cell death) of those that do not successfully match. Because normal ontogeny is an integral part of type II evolutionary change, ontogenetic manipulations can give evolutionary insights. Embryonic graft experiments, in particular, can elucidate the nature of ontogenetic mechanisms that participate in type II changes.

Crosslinking of membrane surface receptors may lead to their segregation into patches and then into a single large aggregate at one pole of the cell. This process is called capping. Here, a novel explanation of such a process is presented in which the membrane is viewed as a supersaturated solution of receptors in the lipid bilayer and the adjacent two aqueous layers. Without a crosslinking agent, a patch of receptors that is less than a certain size cannot stay in equilibrium with the solution and thus should dissolve. Patches greater than a certain size are stable and can, in principle, grow by the precipitation of the remaining dissolved receptors from the supersaturated solution. The task of the crosslinking molecules is to form such stable patches. These considerations are based on a qualitative thermodynamic calculation that takes into account the existence of a boundary tension in a patch (in analogy to the surface tension of a droplet). Thermodynamically, these systems should cap spontaneously after the patches have reached a certain size. But, in practice, such a process can be very slow. A suspension of patches may stay practically stable. The ways in which a cell may abolish this metastable equilibrium and thus achieve capping are considered and possible effects of capping inhibitors are discussed.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274724"}

Titration of cathepsin D with pepstatin indicated that the increase in this activity resulted from an increase in the number of enzyme molecules. These effects occurred with both pharmacologic (thyrotoxic) and physiologic (growth-promoting) doses of thyroid hormones. Liver and skeletal muscle from thyroidectomized rats had approximately 50% of the normal levels of lysosomal enzyme activities. Under these various conditions, heart and kidney, tissues in which protein degradation does not appear to be influenced by thyroid hormones, showed no significant changes in lysosomal hydrolases. Thus, thyroid hormones regulate proteolytic and other lysosomal enzyme activities in those tissues in which these hormones influence protein degradation. Many characteristic features of hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism may result from changes in levels of lysosomal enzymes.", "url": "http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/274725"}
