Whole-cell currents from nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) channels were studied in rat myoballs using a light-activated agonist to determine the voltage dependence of the macroscopic opening and closing rate constants. Myoballs were bathed in a solution containing a low concentration of the inactive isomer of the photoisomerizable azobenzene derivative, cis-Bis-Q. A light flash was then presented to produce a known concentration jump of agonist, trans-Bis-Q, across a wide range of membrane potentials in symmetrical solutions (NaCl or CsCl on both sides) or asymmetrical solutions (NaCl in the bath and CsCl in the pipette). At the low agonist concentration used in this study, the reciprocal of the macroscopic time constants gives an unambiguous measure of the effective closing rate. It showed an exponential decrease with membrane hyperpolarization between +20 and -100 mV, but tended to level off at more depolarized and at more hyperpolarized membrane potentials. The relative effective opening rate was derived from the steady-state conductance, the single-channel conductance, and the apparent closing rate; it decreased sharply in the depolarizing region and tended to level off and then turn up in the hyperpolarizing region. The two effective rate constants were shown to depend on the first, second, and third power of membrane potential. 相似文献

The steady-state gating of individual batrachotoxin-modified sodium channels in neutral phospholipid bilayers exhibits spontaneous, reversible changes in channel activation, such that the midpoint potential (Va) for the gating curves may change, by 30 mV or more, with or without a change in the apparent gating valence (za). Consequently, estimates for Va and, in particular, za from ensemble-averaged gating curves differ from the average values for Va and za from single-channel gating curves. In addition to these spontaneous variations, the average Va shifts systematically as a function of [NaCl] (being -109, -88, and -75 mV at 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 M NaCl), with no systematic variation in the average za (approximately 3.7). The [NaCl]-dependent shifts in Va were interpreted in terms of screening of fixed charges near the channels' gating machinery. Estimates for the extracellular and intracellular apparent charge densities (sigma e = -0.7 and sigma i = -0.08 e/nm2) were obtained from experiments in symmetrical and asymmetrical NaCl solutions using the Gouy-Chapman theory. In 0.1 M NaCl the extracellular and intracellular surface potentials are estimated to be -94 and -17 mV, respectively. The intrinsic midpoint potential, corrected for the surface potentials, is thus about -30 mV, and the standard free energy of activation is approximately -12 kJ/mol. In symmetrical 0.1 M NaCl, addition of 0.005 M Ba2+ to the extracellular solution produced a 17-mV depolarizing shift in Va and a slight reduction in za. The shift is consistent with predictions using the Gouy-Chapman theory and the above estimate for sigma e. Subsequent addition of 0.005 M Ba2+ to the intracellular solution produced a approximately 5-mV hyperpolarizing shift in the ensemble-averaged gating curve and reduced za by approximately 1. This Ba(2+)-induced shift is threefold larger than predicted, which together with the reduction in za implies that Ba2+ may bind at the intracellular channel surface. 相似文献

The compound L-660, 631 (2-oxo-5-(1-hydroxy-2,4,6-heptatriynyl)-1,3-dioxolane-4 heptanoic acid), a natural product isolated from an Actinomycete culture, was found to inhibit rat liver cytosolic acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase, the first step in the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway, with an IC50 of 1.0 x 10(-8) M. The inhibitor had no effect on other sulfhydryl containing enzymes of lipid synthesis such as HMG-CoA synthase, HMG-CoA reductase, and fatty acid synthase. When tested in cultured human liver Hep G2 cells the compound inhibited the incorporation of 14C-acetate and 14C-octanoate into sterols 56% and 48% respectively at 3 x 10(-6) M with no effect on fatty acid synthesis. No noticeable effect was seen on fatty acid biosynthesis. This strongly suggests that the locus of inhibition of acetate incorporation into sterols found with this compound is the acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase step in the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway. 相似文献

Background
Tuberculosis in Zambia is a major public health problem, however the country does not have reliable baseline data on the TB prevalence for impact measurement; therefore it was among the priority countries identified by the World Health Organization to conduct a national TB prevalence surveyObjective
To estimate the prevalence of tuberculosis among the adult Zambian population aged 15 years and above, in 2013–2014.Methods
A cross-sectional population-based survey was conducted in 66 clusters across all the 10 provinces of Zambia. Eligible participants aged 15 years and above were screened for TB symptoms, had a chest x-ray (CXR) performed and were offered an HIV test. Participants with TB symptoms and/or CXR abnormality underwent an in-depth interview and submitted one spot- and one morning sputum sample for smear microscopy and liquid culture. Digital data collection methods were used throughout the process.Results
Of the 98,458 individuals who were enumerated, 54,830 (55.7%) were eligible to participate, and 46,099 (84.1%) participated. Of those who participated, 45,633/46,099 (99%) were screened by both symptom assessment and chest x-ray, while 466/46,099 (1.01%) were screened by interview only. 6,708 (14.6%) were eligible to submit sputum and 6,154/6,708 (91.7%) of them submitted at least one specimen for examination. MTB cases identified were 265/6,123 (4.3%). The estimated national adult prevalence of smear, culture and bacteriologically confirmed TB was 319/100,000 (232-406/100,000); 568/100,000 (440-697/100,000); and 638/100,000 (502-774/100,000) population, respectively. The risk of having TB was five times higher in the HIV positive than HIV negative individuals. The TB prevalence for all forms was estimated to be 455 /100,000 population for all age groups.Conclusion
The prevalence of tuberculosis in Zambia was higher than previously estimated. Innovative approaches are required to accelerate the control of TB. 相似文献7.

The title compound, L-659,989, is a highly potent, competitive, and selective antagonist of the binding of [3H]PAF to its receptors in platelet membranes from rabbits and humans. It exhibits equilibrium inhibition constants for PAF binding of 1.1 nM (rabbit) to 9.0 nM (human), values that are at least 1-2 orders of magnitude lower than those of other PAF antagonists tested. L-659,989 potently inhibits PAF-induced aggregation of rabbit platelets and degranulation of rat (ED50 4.5 nM) and human (ED50 10 nM) neutrophils. L-659,989 inhibits PAF-induced extravasation and lysosomal enzyme release in rats, and is active orally in female rats (ED50 0.2 mg/kg) with an extraordinary oral duration of action of 12 to 16 hours at 1.0 mg/kg p.o. 相似文献

Photoactivation and dissociation of agonist molecules at the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in voltage-clamped rat myoballs. 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0 下载免费PDF全文
The photochemical properties of the azobenzene derivative, Bis-Q, were exploited to carry out an agonist concentration jump followed by a molecular rearrangement of bound agonist molecules at acetylcholine (ACh) receptor channels of voltage-clamped rat myoballs. Myoballs were bathed in solutions containing low concentrations of cis-Bis-Q, the inactive isomer. Whole-cell current relaxations were studied following a light flash that produced a concentration jump of agonist, trans-Bis-Q, followed by a second flash that produced net trans----cis photoisomerizations of Bis-Q molecules. The concentration-jump relaxation provided a measure of the mean burst duration for ACh receptor channels occupied by trans-Bis-Q (7.7 ms, 22 degrees C). The second current relaxation was a more rapid conductance decrease (phase 1, tau = 0.8 ms). Phase 1 may represent either the burst duration for receptors initially occupied by a single cis- and a single trans-Bis-Q molecule or that for unliganded receptors. Single-channel current recordings from excised outside-out membrane patches showed that single channels open following an agonist concentration jump comparable to that used in the whole-cell experiments; when many such records were averaged, a synthetic macroscopic relaxation was produced. Individual open channels closed faster following a flash that promoted trans----cis photoisomerizations of the bound ligand, thus confirming the whole-cell observations of phase 1. 相似文献

The bone marrow formation of three structure-functional types of chromosome combinations was studied on intact rats at diverse age periods and experimental models of splenectomy, aseptic inflammation, hypoxic state, hemorrhage, and irradiation. As a result, a dependence was revealed of their formation intensity upon the ontogenesis stage as well as upon the nature and power of the experimental factor affecting the organism. 相似文献

Comparative study of morphological structure of chromosomes in different hematogenous cells of experimental white rats was carried out on the 5th day after ablation of spleen, on the 6th day after intermittent action of hypoxia in an altitude chamber and on the 6th day in case of aseptic inflammation after introduction of turpentine. In the populations of marrow cells of all experimental animals three types of chromosome sets were detected, their ratio changing, due to the regulation level of different hematogenous rows. 相似文献
