Abstract:Despite years of research, the etiology of most birth defects remains largely unknown. Interview instruments have been the major tools in the search for environmental causes of birth defects. Because of respondents' problems with recognition and recall, interviews are limited in their capacity to measure certain exposures. Laboratory scientists can have a major impact on defining markers of environmental exposure and genetic susceptibility. The Centers for Disease Control is starting a case-control study of serious birth defects on the basis of a population-based surveillance system for birth defects diagnosed during the first year of life in metropolitan Atlanta. Each year, 300 infants with selected birth defects (case subjects) and 100 population-based control subjects (infants without birth defects) will be enrolled in an ongoing study that will supplement surveillance. In addition to conducting extensive maternal interviews, we will collect blood and urine specimens from case and control subjects and their mothers for laboratory testing. Eventually, some environmental sampling may be incorporated. Particular areas of emphasis are (1) nutritional factors, specifically measuring maternal folic acid levels and other micronutrients (e.g., zinc) to explore their role in the etiology of neural tube defects, (2) substance use, specifically measuring cocaine metabolites in the blood and urine to explore their role for specific vascular disruption defects, and (3) environmental factors such as pesticides and aflatoxins, to explore their potential relationships with specific defects. In addition, a DNA bank will be maintained to evaluate the role of specific candidate genes in the etiology of birth defects.

Analysis of protective idiotype in sera and hybridomas derived from tumor-bearing mice with long-term survival. Abstract:In this study, the contribution of idiotype-positive antitumor antibodies (anti-Id) in protective tumor immunity was investigated. We have previously shown that among various anti-Id generated and typed as the internal-image Ab2 of the tumor-associated antibody (TAA) gp52, only 2F10 antibody induces protective immunity. Increase of the 2F10 idiotope in sera of tumor-bearing mice correlated with long-term survival, while in mice with short survival the circulating 2F10 idiotype decreased. 2F10+ Ig were purified from sera of tumor-bearing mice with long-term survival and the amount of 2F10+ anti-TAA antibodies was determined. Only about 3% of 2F10+ antibodies are 2F10+ anti-TAA+. Hybridomas were generated from a 2F10 high mouse with spontaneous tumor regression. Only 2 out of 52 tumor-specific hybridomas were 2F10+.

Abstract:In this study, SR 33805 was shown to inhibit competitively [3H]fantofarone binding to cardiac sarcolemmal membranes. In contrast, SR 33805 was shown to inhibit allosterically [3H](+)-PN200-110, [3H](-)-D888 and cis-(+)-[3H]diltiazem binding. In isolated rabbit atrial preparations, SR 33805 was shown to be the least potent of fantofarone, nifedipine, verapamil and diltiazem in terms of both negative chronotropic and inotropic responses (IC50's 6 and 12 microM, respectively). In superfused rat aortic strips, SR 33805 like other Ca2+ channel antagonists, caused a significant inhibition of both K(+)-induced 45Ca2+ influx and contractile responses. In addition this agent was shown to antagonize Ca(2+)-induced contractions in K(+)-depolarized aorta with a pA2, value of 8.39 +/- 0.02. In femoral, renal and basilar arteries, SR 33805 was equiactive to the other Ca2+ channel antagonists studied in antagonizing K(+)-induced contractions (IC50 approximately 40 nM), but unlike the reference Ca2+ channel antagonists, was equiactive in antagonizing serotonin-induced contractions (IC50 approximately 250 nM). This suggests that the effects of SR 33805 depend mainly on membrane potential.

Abstract:While the general structure of immunoglobulin chains has remained relatively unchanged throughout evolution, the organization of the genes encoding these molecules differs substantially. To understand how the rearranging immunoglobulin system arose, it is necessary to examine living representatives of the most early vertebrate phyla. Elasmo-branches, which include the sharks, skates, and rays, are the most primitive phylogenetic class of vertebrates from which immunoglobulin DNA sequences have been obtained. In the sandbar shark (Carcharhinus plumbeus), the genes are arranged in individual clusters in which a single variable (V), joining (J), and constant (C) region gene, along with upstream regulatory elements, span a distance of approximately 4.4 kb or approximately 5.8 kb. We report the complete sequence of a genomic clone encoding sandbar shark lambda light chain. A unique finding of our study is that the V and J genes are fused in the germ line. Three additional clones have been shown by DNA sequencing to also have fused V and J genes. The four clones have complementarity-determining regions 3 of various lengths and amino acid sequence variability similar to the products of rearranged genes. Furthermore, analysis by polymerase chain reaction technology revealed an additional 26 genomic clones demonstrating fusion of the V and J segments. Therefore, VJ fusion is the prominent organizational feature of sandbar shark immunoglobulin light chain genes.

Abstract:This paper reviews a series of experiments regarding the influence of body condition and dietary energy supply on reproductive processes in the female mink. The reporting is based on 1905 sets of reproductive performance data and on data regarding number of corpora lutea, implantation rate, plasma progesterone and oestradiol, luteinizing hormone (LH) release and ovulation rate, and the early development of the fertilized ova. Generally, treatment effects were more pronounced in yearling females than in adults; furthermore, adults responded less to varied energy supply by changes in body weight. A weight reduction of > 300 g during the winter resulted in poor reproductive performance in yearling females. A long-term study indicated better reproductive longevity for females on a low-intensity feeding regimen, whereas females on a high-intensity feeding regimen tended to have larger litters until 3 years of age. Nutritional flushing was carried out by a 2-week period of moderate energy restriction followed by feeding ad libitum from 3-5 days before initiation of matings until matings were completed for the individual females. Mainly in yearlings, but also in adults, litter sizes were improved for females with a first mating early in the breeding season, which was confirmed by an increased number of corpora lutea. The interval between the first recorded increase in plasma progesterone and the day of the peak progesterone concentration was decreased.

Maternal vasoconstriction and fetal growth retardation are part of the syndrome of pre-eclampsia and are thought to be related to placental insufficiency. There is evidence to suggest that the powerfully vasoactive endothelin peptides might be involved in the pathogenesis. 2. The production of endothelins appears to be regulated mainly by modulation of mRNA levels, and they are thought to exert their effects locally, rather than systemically. Hence, the measurement of endothelin mRNA levels in tissues would be expected to reflect the activity of the endothelin systems. 3. RNAase protection assays, using specific antisense probes capable of distinguishing between the endothelin mRNA isoforms, have been used to examine the expression of the three endothelin genes in placental villous tissue, amniotic membrane and myometrium. Samples were taken from 15 pre-eclamptic women and from 14 women with normal gestations. Myometrium was taken at hysterectomy from five non-pregnant women as an additional control. Plasma concentrations of immunoreactive endothelin [endothelin-1, endothelin-2 and big endothelin (not distinguished)] were measured in samples taken concurrently from uterine vein and peripheral blood during surgery in ten patients. 4. The level of endothelin-1 mRNA in placental villous tissue was significantly higher in pre-eclamptic women (32 weeks gestation) than in control subjects (38 weeks gestation) (1.85 +/- 0.26 versus 0.52 +/- 0.09 arbitrary units, means +/- SEM, P < 0.001) and in gravid than in non-gravid myometrium (P < 0.001).

Abstract:In our model of experimental autoimmune glomerulonephritis (EAG), BN rats given a single IM injection of homologous glomerular basement membrane (GBM) in FCA develop anti-GBM autoantibodies with focal glomerulonephritis. To investigate the role of lymphocytes in the induction of EAG, we examined the effects of antigen rechallenge and of adoptive cell transfer from donors with nephritis to naive recipients. Groups of animals were rechallenged with GBM in FCA following either low (non-nephritogenic) doses of GBM, or following resolution of EAG. This resulted in an enhanced anti-GBM antibody response in both groups, suggesting the presence of GBM specific T or B memory cells. To investigate this possibility, spleen cells from animals with EAG were transferred into lightly irradiated recipients. There was no significant rise in anti-GBM antibody levels after transfer. However, subsequent challenge with GBM in FCA resulted in an enhanced anti-GBM antibody response by 2 weeks when compared with recipients of normal spleen cells. Cells capable of priming for EAG developed by week 4 after immunization of donors and persisted in the recipients for at least 24 weeks. To investigate which cell type was responsible for this effect, we depleted or positively selected donor spleen cells prior to transfer, using Dynabeads coated with monoclonal antibodies to Th or B lymphocytes. Depletion of Th cells, but not B cells, reduced the enhanced anti-GBM antibody response of recipients challenged with GBM in FCA. Positively selected Th cells, but not B cells, resulted in an enhanced anti-GBM antibody response similar to that in positive controls.

Abstract:Dipyridamole (DPM), an inhibitor of nucleoside transport, is a unique potentiator of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). We examined the combined effects of DPM and 5-FU on three cell lines (IMC-2, IMC-3, IMC-4) derived from a single tumor of a patient with maxillary cancer. DPM at 1.0-2.0 microM potentiated the cytocidal action of 5-FU > 20-fold against IMC-2 cells, while DPM at 10-20 microM potentiated the action of 5-FU against IMC-3 cells by 2-fold and against IMC-4 cells by approximately 4-fold. We examined why DPM differentially potentiated 5-FU against the three cell lines. The three maxillary cell lines showed heterogeneous sensitivities to the combination of 5-FU and DPM. We compared intracellular metabolism of 5-FU in IMC-2, IMC-3 and IMC-4 cells by HPLC. Determination of 5-FU metabolites demonstrated that cellular contents of 5-fluorodeoxyuridine monophosphate (FdUMP) were 104.66, 15.35 and 61.5 fmol/10(6) cells in IMC-2, IMC-3 and IMC-4 cells, respectively, in the presence of 10 microM DPM when the three cell lines had similar levels (0.21-0.33 fmol/10(6) cells) of FdUMP in the absence of DPM. By contrast, cellular levels of 5-FU and 5-fluorouridine triphosphate (FUTP) were not appreciably changed by DPM in three cell lines. The cellular level of thymidylate synthase mRNA in IMC-2 cells was found to be about one-fifth of that in IMC-3 and IMC-4 cells. The differential effects of DPM on the potentiation of 5-FU cytotoxicity might be closely related to the cellular levels of FdUMP and its target enzyme, thymidylate synthase in three human maxillary cancer cell lines.\nOutput:\n" }, { "from": "agent", "value": "Cell Survival,Dipyridamole,Drug Synergism,Fluorodeoxyuridylate,Fluorouracil,Humans,Maxillary Neoplasms,Tumor Cells, Cultured,Uridine Triphosphate" } ]

Abstract:Dipyridamole echocardiography test (DET) has gained acceptance due to its safety, feasibility, diagnostic accuracy and prognostic power. The main limitation of the test is a less than ideal sensitivity in some patient subsets, such as those with limited coronary artery disease. Atropine with dipyridamole might theoretically combine to become a synergistic ischaemic stress test, by increasing myocardial oxygen demand through chronotropic stress and by reducing flow supply through a shortening of the diastolic interval under maximal coronary vasodilation. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of the addition of atropine to DET. Three hundred and twenty-one patients (age = 58 +/- 9 years), referred for testing in the echo lab, were initially studied by DET. Of these, 151 were stopped during or within the 2 min following dipyridamole infusion because of achievement of a predetermined end-point: obvious echocardiographic positivity (n = 137), severe chest pain (n = 3), diagnostic ST segment changes (n = 7) or limited side effects (n = 4).

Abstract:Dipyridamole echocardiography test (DET) has gained acceptance due to its safety, feasibility, diagnostic accuracy and prognostic power. The main limitation of the test is a less than ideal sensitivity in some patient subsets, such as those with limited coronary artery disease. Atropine with dipyridamole might theoretically combine to become a synergistic ischaemic stress test, by increasing myocardial oxygen demand through chronotropic stress and by reducing flow supply through a shortening of the diastolic interval under maximal coronary vasodilation. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of the addition of atropine to DET. Three hundred and twenty-one patients (age = 58 +/- 9 years), referred for testing in the echo lab, were initially studied by DET. Of these, 151 were stopped during or within the 2 min following dipyridamole infusion because of achievement of a predetermined end-point: obvious echocardiographic positivity (n = 137), severe chest pain (n = 3), diagnostic ST segment changes (n = 7) or limited side effects (n = 4). In another three cases, atropine was not given due to a history of glaucoma or severe prostatic hypertrophy. In the remaining 167 patients with a negative DET test, atropine (0.25 mg intravenously, repeated every min up to a maximum of 1 mg, if necessary) was added, starting 3 min after the end of the dipyridamole infusion. The dipyridamole-atropine echo test (DETA) was positive in 32 and negative in 135 patients, and no major side effects occurred in any patient.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) Output:

Abstract:The 5' flanking region of the human interleukin (IL)-2 gene was investigated for enhancer activity in response to CD69-generated signals, using a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT)-driven transient expression system in Jurkat cells. The region extending from -317 to +47 relative to the initiation site of IL-2 gene transcription was shown to contain sequences able to respond to CD69 cross-linking, by enhancing by about 100% a phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-plus-ionomycin stimulation of CAT activity. A similar increase in CAT activity produced by PMA-plus-anti-CD3 mAb was induced by CD69 cross-linking, while a 200% increase over that obtained by PMA-plus-anti-CD28 mAb stimulation was seen. Analysis of enhancer deletion mutants revealed that proximal AP-1, OCT-1/octamer-associated protein and nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) binding regions were all necessary to allow CD69-mediated enhancement of CAT activity. By gel mobility shift analysis, cyclosporin A-sensitive NFAT-binding induction and enhancement of AP-1 binding activity could be detected in nuclear extracts of both Jurkat and peripheral blood T cells after simultaneous CD69 and protein kinase C stimulation. Finally, CD69-mediated signals could increase NFAT and AP-1 binding activity following PMA and ionomycin stimulation in peripheral blood T cells.

Abstract:Twenty-seven patients with poor-prognosis malignancies were treated with a combination (CARBOPEC) of fixed-dose etoposide (1,750 mg/m2), cyclophosphamide (6,400 mg/m2), and escalating doses of carboplatin (from 800 to 1,600 mg/m2) followed by autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT). All patients had previously received platinum derivatives. The diagnoses were as follows: germ cell tumors (GCTs; n = 15); ovarian carcinomas (n = 8); rhabdomyosarcomas (n = 3), and Hodgkin's disease (n = 1). All 27 patients were fully evaluated for toxicity. The median duration of granulocytopenia (leukocytes < 0.5 x 10(9)/l) and thrombocytopenia (platelets < 20 x 10(9)/l) was 23 and 20 days, respectively. Hematologic growth factors were used in 3 cases. The main nonhematologic toxicity was gastrointestinal, with moderate to severe diarrhea in 18 patients. No significant renal toxicity was observed. The overall response rate to this high-dose chemotherapy was 55%, with a complete response (CR) rate of 45% (9 patients). The median duration of CR was 9 months. Five of the 27 patients are alive with no evidence of disease (NED) at 5, 22, 27, 40, and 43 months after ABMT.

Abstract:Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) is associated with the syndrome of humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy. A high incidence of positive staining for PTHrP is observed in breast cancer and positivity is more frequent in patients who develop bone metastases. We assessed the presence of PTHrP mRNA by using the polymerase chain reaction in 38 normocalcemic breast cancer patients with long-term follow-up (minimum, 5 years) selected for the presence or absence of later bone metastasis development.

Abstract:Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) is associated with the syndrome of humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy. A high incidence of positive staining for PTHrP is observed in breast cancer and positivity is more frequent in patients who develop bone metastases. We assessed the presence of PTHrP mRNA by using the polymerase chain reaction in 38 normocalcemic breast cancer patients with long-term follow-up (minimum, 5 years) selected for the presence or absence of later bone metastasis development. In all the patients except one, the PTHrP gene was expressed in the breast tumor. The level of amplified PTHrP complementary DNA was inversely related to age (P < 0.02) and positively related to the proportion of invaded nodes (P < 0.02) but was not related to the other usual prognostic factors. The level of PTHrP mRNA was not different between the group of patients without recurrence or metastases (n = 11) and the group of patients who later developed metastases in soft tissues (n = 10).

Abstract:In rats, the injection of soman (70 micrograms/kg, SC) resulted in a 90% inhibition of the cholinesterase (ChE) activities in three brain regions. The density (Bmax) for muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) following a single injection of soman was significantly reduced at 2 h after injection in the cortex and hindbrain. Bmax values, however, returned to baseline within 24 h. Subacute (repeated injection every 15 min) treatment with a sublethal dose of soman over 2 h also decreased the density of mAChRs. In both cases the density of mAChRs was reduced by about 15% for the cortex and 17% for the hindbrain (the midbrain was also reduced by 18% for subacute injections). Chronic administration (once daily for 7 days) of soman (20 micrograms/kg, SC) produced maximal inhibition of ChE activity but did not significantly downregulate mAChRs. Clonidine pretreatment reversed the soman-induced mAChR downregulation in cortex and hindbrain produced by acute soman administration.

Abstract:In the game of ruby union, the scrum epitomises the physical nature of the game. It is both a powerful offensive skill, affording a base for attacking play, and a defensive skill in denying the opposition clean possession. However, the scrum has also been implicated in a large proportion of serious spinal injuries in rugby union. The majority of injuries are found to occur at engagement where the forces experienced by front-row players (more than two-thirds of a tonne shared across the front-row) can exceed the structural limits of the cervical spine. These large forces are a consequence of the speed of engagement and the weight (and number) of players involved in the scrum. This highlights not only the need for physical preparation of all forwards but particularly player restraint at engagement, and justifies the 'crouch-pause-engage' sequence recently introduced to 'depower' the scrum. As the hooker is the player exposed to the greatest loads throughout the scrum and subsequently most at risk, he should determine the timing of engagement of the 2 front-rows. Stability of the scrum is an indication of front-row players' ability to utilise their strength to transmit the force to their opponents as well as the push of second-row and back-row players behind them in the scrum. This appears to be independent of the size of players. Equally, it reflects the risk of chronic degeneration of the musculoskeletal system through repeated exposure to these large stresses. However, not only are older and more experienced players better able to generate and transmit these forces, they are also able to maintain the integrity of the scrum. A large proportion of individual players' efforts to generate force is lost in their coordinated effort in a normal scrum. It is assumed these forces are dissipated through players re-orientating their bodies in the scrum situation as well as to less efficient shear forces and to the elastic and compressive tissues in the body. It again reinforces the importance of physical preparation for all forwards to better withstand the large forces involved in scrummaging. Despite negative publicity surrounding the risk of serious spinal injury in rugby union, limited research has been conducted to examine either the mechanisms of injury or techniques implicated in causing injury. Biomechanical information can provide systematic bases for modifying existing techniques and assessing the physical capacities necessary to efficiently and safely play in the serum.

Abstract:The role of adult thymus in in vivo immune response to infection with Listeria monocytogenes was examined using euthymic mice and adult-thymectomized (ATx) mice which had been thymectomized 2 weeks before. Numbers of T cells in peritoneal cavities and spleens were increased at 2 weeks after inoculation of L. monocytogenes, whereas such increases of T cells were several times higher in euthymic mice than in ATx mice. In flow-cytometric analysis of peritoneal exudate cells, a significant increase of CD3+CD4-CD8- cells bearing gamma/delta type T cell receptor was noted in euthymic mouse after infection compared to ATx mouse. Neither assay of antigen-specific T cell proliferation nor analysis of cell cycle exhibited any superiority of T cells obtained from euthymic mice to those obtained from ATx mice. These findings suggest that the enlargement of T cell population in euthymic mice is attributed largely to T cells which emigrate from the thymus after inoculation of L. monocytogenes. Moreover, in vivo protective immune response against secondarily challenged L. monocytogenes was achieved more efficiently in euthymic mice than in ATx mice, as shown by the clearance of the bacteria from organs and the survival rate of infected mice.

Abstract:Since 1987 we have analysed throat samples from 1,086 healthy contacts of 32 patients with meningococcal disease. The disease-causing strain was found in contacts of 17 out of the 32 patients. 161 (18%) of the contacts carried meningococci, and 30 (3%) of them were carriers of the disease-causing strain as determined by DNA fingerprinting. The carrier strain was eradicated in 29 of these 30 contacts by treatment with rifampicin. No secondary case of meningococcal disease was observed. During the four-year period 1984-87, there were 39 confirmed cases of meningococcal disease, including 12 verified and four suspected secondary cases of meningococcal disease. Therefore identification and eradication of the disease-causing strain seems to prevent secondary cases. A change in the Norwegian recommendations for preventing secondary cases of meningococcal disease should be discussed.\nOutput:\n" }, { "from": "agent", "value": "Adolescent,Adult,Aged,Carrier State,Child,Child, Preschool,Contact Tracing,Female,Humans,Infant,Male,Meningitis, Meningococcal,Middle Aged,Norway,Pharynx,Rifampin" } ]

Abstract:A cDNA encoding phosphoglucomutase (PGM) has been isolated from a rat liver cDNA library following screening with a polymerase chain reaction product. The cDNA was found to contain a 53-base-pair (bp) 5' untranslated region (5' UTR), a single start codon and consensus initiation sequence, an open reading frame (ORF) of 1686 bp, and a 3' untranslated tail. A comparison to the rabbit and human muscle PGM cDNAs [Whitehouse et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89 (1992) 411-415] showed 90% identity of rat cDNA to both, while a comparison to the deduced amino acid sequences showed 97 and 96% identity, respectively. Northern blot analyses determined that PGM was encoded by a single mRNA in rat liver, of approximately 2.2 kb. Following transfection of COS-7 cells with a plasmid containing the entire PGM ORF, indirect immunofluorescence analyses using a PGM-specific monoclonal antibody determined that approximately 5% of the cells displayed 50-100 times greater fluorescence than that seen in the remainder of the cells or in mock transfects.

Abstract:Traditionally, gastro-oesophageal reflux is deemed to have occurred when oesophageal pH falls below 4. Other 'non-traditional' pH changes that do not fall below pH 4, that fall below 4 for only brief intervals, or that occur when basal pH is less than 4 are usually disregarded. The aim of this study was to determine whether these non-traditional pH changes represent gastro-oesophageal reflux or are artefactual. The 3-h postprandial combined oesophageal pH and manometric records of 22 patients referred for investigation of suspected gastro-oesophageal reflux were reviewed. All pH falls of > or = 0.5 pH units were analysed for manometric evidence of reflux that was classified as definite, probable, or possible. In total, 196 traditional and 223 non-traditional pH events were scored and analysed. The majority of traditional (80%) and non-traditional (60%) events were associated with definite manometric evidence of reflux, although a greater proportion of non-traditional events were associated with only probable evidence of reflux (33%) compared with traditional events (18%). The proportions of possible reflux were similar in the two groups. Limiting pH events to only those satisfying traditional criteria excluded an additional 32% with definite manometric evidence of reflux and 49% with definite or probable evidence of reflux. Most pH falls that remained above 4 or fell across 4 for < 15 sec occurred in the 1st h postprandially, compared with traditional pH events, which occurred equally throughout the 3-h period.

Glycine is an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the spinal cord and brainstem. The mechanism of this inhibition is via binding of glycine to specific receptors, increasing transmembrane Cl- conductance and hyperpolarizing neurones. Strychnine selectively antagonizes these effects. The role of glycinergic neurones in supraspinal regions is poorly understood. 2. Effects of glycine on release of catecholamines in the striatum were examined by microdialysis in freely-moving rats. Transcription of the genes encoding strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors was assessed in the striatum and substantia nigra, by use of reverse transcription followed by the polymerase chain reaction. 3. Glycine administered via the microdialysis probe dose-dependently increased concentrations of dopamine and its metabolites, dihydroxyphenylacetic acid and homovanillic acid, in the perfusate, indicating increased local release and metabolism of dopamine. Strychnine markedly attenuated these responses. Whereas striatal tissue did not contain mRNA for either the adult or neonatal form of strychnine-sensitive glycine receptor, nigral tissue contained a message for the adult form. 4.

Abstract:In vivo kinetics of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] were investigated in homozygous Watanabe heritable hyperlipidaemic (WHHL) rabbits (an animal model of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH)), and in normolipidemic Japanese White rabbits (controls). 125I-labelled Lp(a) and 131I-labelled LDL were simultaneously injected intravenously. Blood samples were then taken periodically. Kinetic parameters were calculated from the plasma radioactivity decay curves. The fractional catabolic rates (FCRs) of both Lp(a) and LDL (1.355 +/- 0.189 pools per day and 1.278 +/- 0.397 pools per day, respectively) in the WHHL rabbits were significantly (P < 0.005) smaller than those in the control rabbits (2.008 +/- 0.083 pools per day and 2.855 +/- 0.759 pools per day, respectively). In WHHL rabbits, the FCRs of Lp(a) and LDL were similar. However, in control rabbits, the FCR of Lp(a) was significantly (P < 0.01) smaller than that of LDL. In WHHL rabbit organs, the mean ratio of 125I-Lp(a): 131I-LDL, 48 h after injection, normalized to the corresponding isotope ratio in plasma, were 1.525, 1.020, 1.819 and 1.967, in liver, kidney, spleen and bile, respectively. These values were significantly higher than the corresponding values in control rabbits (0.590, 0.677, 0.862 and 0.766, respectively).

Abstract:We used phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P-MRS) to study the effect of exercise-induced muscle injury in the calf muscle of 7 DMD/BMD carriers and 6 non-carrier females. All subjects performed 50-80 lengthening contractions with the right calf muscles. 48 h after lengthening exercise non-carriers showed increased sensitivity to pressure in their gastrocnemius accompanied by increased T2 relaxation times and by elevated Pi/PCr ratios at rest. DMD/BMD carriers did not show any effect of lengthening exercise on these measurements. In-magnet exercise revealed in all carriers a reduced initial rate of Pi recovery and an increased time to fully recovery the resting value of intracellular pH. Lengthening exercise further decreased the initial rate of Pi recovery. Non-carriers did not show any variation attributable to lengthening exercise either during in-magnet work or during recovery from exercise. We found that lengthening exercise contractions causes: (1) less muscle injury in carriers compared to non-carriers, (2) even slower rate of Pi recovery, but (3) no effect on Pi recovery in non-carriers.

Abstract:Purine nucleoside phosphorylase from calf spleen catalyzes the arsenolysis of inosine to form hypoxanthine and ribose 1-arsenate, which spontaneously hydrolyzes to ribose and arsenate. In the presence of H2(18)O, no 18O is incorporated into ribose, demonstrating that ribose 1-arsenate hydrolysis occurs by attack of water on the arsenic atom. Rapid reaction kinetics at 20 degrees C result in a biphasic rate curve with the first turnover occurring at a rate of 20 s-1 followed by a steady-state rate of 2 s-1. The product burst is consistent with rapid steps for substrate binding and arsenolysis followed by rate-limiting hypoxanthine release at a rate of 2 s-1. Purine nucleoside phosphorylase with bound [14C]inosine was mixed with excess unlabeled inosine and arsenate to determine relative rates for reaction or dissociation of bound inosine. The commitment factor (product formed/inosine released) was 0.19 at saturating arsenate, indicating that inosine binds to free enzyme and that bound inosine is not in thermodynamic equilibrium with free substrate. At neutral pH, kinetic isotope effects for the phosphorolysis reaction are small, indicating kinetic suppression. Kinetic isotope effects for arsenolysis were measured with [1'-3H]-, [2'-3H]-, [1'-14C]-, [9-15N]-, [4'-3H]-, and [5'-3H]inosine to provide experimental values of 1.118 +/- 0.003, 1.128 +/- 0.003, 1.022 +/- 0.005, 1.009 +/- 0.004, 1.007 +/- 0.003 and 1.028 +/- 0.004 respectively.
