  • 1.1. Exogenous and endogenous tyrosine protein phosphorylation activities were examined in soluble and partieulate fractions from various normal tissues by using poly-[Glu-80Na, Tyr20] and a monoclonal antibody specific for phosphotyrosine.
  • 2.2. Phosphorylation of the exogenous substrate by the partieulate forms of TPKs was 2- to 10-fold higher than by soluble forms. The activities of partieulate and soluble enzymes decreased in the following order: spleen > (thymus = kidney) > testes ⩾ (pancreas = liver = brain) > heart.
  • 3.3. The level of endogenous phosphorylation in the tissues decreased respectively in the following order: thymus > brain ⩾ (pancreas = liver) > spleen > testes > kidney > heart for the partieulate fractions, and spleen > thymus > brain > pancreas ⩾ liver > testes > kidney > heart for the soluble fractions.
  • 4.4. A large number of phosphotyrosine-containing proteins were detected. In addition, several phosphotyrosine-containing proteins of similar molecular weight were found in different tissues and fractions.

  • 2.2. Gene products of 25 protein coding loci in L. africana were examined by horizontal starch-gel electrophoresis.
  • 3.3. Eighteen protein coding loci (72%) displayed monomorphic gel banding patterns whereas only seven (28%) displayed polymorphic gel banding patterns.
  • 4.4. Average heterozygosity values for adults, youngsters and the total population are respectively 0.058, 0.024 and 0.047.
  • 5.5. Relative gene diversities within and between populations are 84% and 16% respectively.
  • 6.6. Two population simulation programmes were utilized to predict the duration of the current variability present in this species, based on current genetic variation and gene transfer from one generation to the next.

  • 1.The levels of water, Na, K, Ca and Mg in blood serum, brain and kidney and aldosterone level in blood of Naja haje haje were studied during the different phases of the annual cycle.
  • 2.The water content in the tissues studied displayed only minor changes as the animals passed from one phase to the other.
  • 3.A significant increase in Na was recorded in the brain during the different phases indicating a depressed sodium pump, whereas the blood Na level showed a significant decrease during hibernation.
  • 4.K increased in blood serum, brain and kidney during hibernation, while a nonsignificant decrease was found in blood serum during arousal. The brain may act as a potassium reservoir.
  • 5.An increase in Ca and Mg concentration was recorded in blood serum, brain and kidney during prehibernation and hibernation. The data suggested a homeostatic function in the transport and metabolism of these cations.
  • 6.Aldosterone exhibited a highly significant decrease especially during hibernation. The aldosterone regulation of ionic composition is discussed.
  • 7.Na/K and Ca/Mg ratios in the brain may explain the decreased excitability during winter torpor.

  • 1.1. Growing male kittens were fed an 18% casein diet supplemented with 2, 3, or 4% l-methionine (MET) for 6 weeks.
  • 2.2. Free MET concentration in liver increased 30-fold and cystathionine two- to three-fold; the activity of adenosyl-MET transferase and cystathionase also increased but remained lower than previously found in rats.
  • 3.3. Taurine concentration in liver decreased in cats fed excess MET and appeared to depend on taurine intake.
  • 4.4. Alanine aminotransferase activity was high in all groups while serine dehydratase activity was very low.
  • 5.5. Pyruvate kinase and malic enzyme activities which are normally low in cat liver increased after excess MET. Also, glucose 6-phosphate and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenases increased.

  • 1.1. Various tissues of the porcupine Hystrix hodgesoni including liver, intestine, stomach, spleen, kidney, brain and lung were examined for the presence of growth hormone binding sites.
  • 2.2. Membranes were prepared from the aforementioned tissues and tested for binding to 125I-bovine growth hormone (125I-bGH).
  • 3.3. Porcupine kidney membranes yielded 1.3 and 2.7% specific binding when tested at 1000 and 2500 μg protein, respectively. Porcupine liver membranes demonstrated approximately 1% specific binding at 3000 μg protein. The other tissues gave low specific binding. The results indicate that porcupine kidney contained binding sites for growth hormone.
  • 4.4. Various tissues of two teleosts, the snakehead Channa maculata and the winter founder Pleuronectes americanus, were similarly processed and tested for binding to 125I-bGH. It was found that among the different tissues studied, the liver membranes of Channa maculata and the gonad membranes of Pleuronectes americanus gave the highest specific binding of 125I-bGH.
  • 5.5. Liver and intestine membranes of the lamprey Petromyzon marinus did not bind 125I-bGH.

  • 2.2. MFO activity was present in liver samples, but was at or below detection limits in samples of kidney, lung and pancreas.
  • 3.3. Hepatic ethoxyresorufin O-de-ethylase and benzo[a]pyrene hydroxylase activities were similar to those reported in other seals and in other mammals.
  • 4.4. Cytochromes P-450 and b5 concentrations were slightly lower than those observed in other mammals.
  • 5.5. MFO activities in newborn pups and foetuses were significantly lower than those in adult females.
  • 6.6. No qualitative differences in cytochrome P-450 isozyme distribution between foetal and adult samples could be discerned by electrophoresis.

  • 1.1. The incorporation of myo-[2-3H]inositol into phosphatidylinositols was unmodified in brain cortex miniprisms from convulsant rats.
  • 2.2. However, the incorporation had increased by 300–400% in non convulsant rats which had received the same amount of lindane at a lower concentration.
  • 3.3. This result suggests that phosphatidylinositols are implicated in the convulsion syndrome.
  • 4.4. Experiments with lindane added in vitro were performed with both subchronically lindane intoxicated and untreated rats.
  • 5.5. The results show an interesting lack of parallelism.
  • 6.6. This might indicate the development of some resistance to the effects of lindane, possibly as the result of complex compensatory changes in inositol lipid biosynthesis.

  • 1.1. The effects of niacin deficiency on the relative turnover rates of proteins in various tissues of Japanese quail were investigated.
  • 2.2. The level of liver NAD was not affected by niacin deficiency whereas the level of pectoral muscle NAD was markedly reduced.
  • 3.3. In all dietary treatments the liver had the highest turnover rates of proteins, heart and brain had intermediate rates, and pectoral muscle had the lowest rates.
  • 4.4. Relative turnover rates of proteins in all tissues (particularly pectoral muscle) of the niacin deficient group were significantly higher than those of pair-fed control group, although there were no significant differences in turnover rate between pair-fed control and control groups.
  • 5.5. The high turnover rate of proteins in niacin deficiency was primarily attributed to enhanced degradation rate of proteins rather than enhanced synthesis rate of proteins.
  • 6.6. Optical density scanning (or densitometric) of water-soluble pectoral muscle proteins separated by isoelectric focusing revealed several additional minor protein bands between major protein bands in the niacin deficient group which were more pronounced in the acidic region of the gel.
  • 7.7. These results suggest that proteins with a low pI value in pectoral muscle of the niacin deficient animal are highly sensitive to protein degradation.

  • 1.1. Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) exposed to experimental temperatures of 12, 18, 24, 30 or 36°C for a 4-week period were used to investigate the effect of temperature acclimation on the frequency of opercular movement (FOM), growth and cytochrome c oxidase (CCO) activity in heart, liver and muscle.
  • 2.2. An exponential relationship between FOM and temperature after the first week (1010 =1.76) disappeared after the second week.
  • 3.3. The initially high FOM at temperatures of 30 or 36°C and the low FOM at 18 or 12°C changed over 4 weeks to approach the FOM of fish at 24°C.
  • 4.4. This change in the relationship of FOM to temperature from highly dependent to independent appeared to be thermal compensation.
  • 5.5. Heart and liver CCO activities were significantly affected by temperature, with the lowest activity at the approximate optimum temperature for growth, 24°C.
  • 6.6. Highest CCO activities for heart and liver occurred at both the highest and lowest temperatures.
  • 7.7. Among the three tissues, heart CCO activity was generally the highest and most affected by acclimation temperature.
  • 8.8. Muscle tissue had the lowest CCO activity and was unaffected by temperature.
  • 9.9. The high CCO activity at a cold acclimation of temperature 12°C was probably due to thermal compensation and the high activity at 36°C may have been a result of thermal stress.

  • 1.1. Neonatal mice received subcutaneous injections of buffer, thiourea (TU) or propylthiouracil (PTU).
  • 2.2. The PTU-treated mice were sacrificed on postnatal day 14 (P14) and the TU-treated mice on P28.
  • 3.3. Brain weights of the TU- and PTU-treated mice were not significantly different from the controls.
  • 4.4. Acid but not alkaline phosphatase activity in the braistem decreased after TU and PTU treatment.
  • 5.5. Myelination as indicated by intensity of luxol fast blue staining was weaker in drug-treated animals.
  • 6.6. The level of myelin marker enzyme, 2′,3′-cyclic nucleotide 3′-phosphohydrolase, was lower in the brainstem of PTU-treated animals.
  • 7.7. The results suggest a correlation between acid phosphatase but not alkaline phosphatase activity with myelination in the developing mouse brain.

  • 1.1. Perchloric acid-soluble proteins containing H1 histone as a main component were isolated from whole liver, lung and kidney of New Zealand White, Chinchilla, French Silver and Czech Spotted rabbits.
  • 2.2. Proteins were resolved in a two-dimensional polyacrylamide slab gel into 4–5 spots depending on the tissue.
  • 3.3. One of the histone subtypes, Hle, was found to be nonuniformly distributed within rabbit populations.
  • 4.4. The prevailing fraction of animals had only a single spot of H1e (phenotype A). Approximately 10–28% of animals, depending on the breed, had two spots of H1e (e1 and e2; phenotype B) that slightly differed in the apparent molecular weights.
  • 5.5. These two distinct gel patterns of H1e showed no tissue specificity, and the same phenotype was revealed in all tissues from the same animal.

  • 1.1. The actions of piroxicam, a nonsteroidal and noncarboxylic anti-inflammatory drug, on the metabolism of the isolated perfused rat liver were investigated. The main purpose was to verify if piroxicam is also active on glycogenolysis and energy metabolism, as demonstrated for several carboxylic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories.
  • 2.2. Piroxicam increased oxygen consumption in livers from both fed and fasted rats.
  • 3.3. Piroxicam increased glucose release and glycolysis from endogenous glycogen (glycogenolysis).
  • 4.4. Gluconeogenesis from lactate plus pyruvate was inhibited.
  • 5.5. The action of piroxicam on oxygen consumption was blocked by antimycin A, but not by atractyloside.
  • 6.6. The action of piroxicam in the perfused rat liver metabolism seems to be a consequence of its action on mitochondria.
  • 7.7. It can be concluded that inhibition of energy metabolism and stimulation of glycogenolysis are not specific properties of carboxylic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

  • 1.1. Berenil, administered to rats in vivo, promoted a decrease in liver SAMDC activity, but an increase in ODC and SAT activity.
  • 2.2. Its effect on ODC was completely prevented by cycloheximide, that on SAT only partially.
  • 3.3. Berenil had no effect on ODC activity in adrenalectomized rats. Adrenergic antagonists counteracted the effect of Berenil on ODC activity.
  • 4.4. Polyamine content was increased. The maximum modification was observed for putrescine and N1-acetylspermidine.

  • 1.1. The benefit of dietary vitamin E supplementation in preventing oxidative-induced lung injury was investigated. Three day preterm guinea pig pups were exposed to hyperoxic (85% O2) or normoxic (21% O2) conditions. The animals were fed either a standard low birthweight human infant formula milk (6.4 mg/l vitamin E), or a vitamin E supplemented milk (100 mg/l) for up to 7 days.
  • 2.2. After 3 days vitamin E supplementation, plasma but not erythrocyte vitamin E concentrations were elevated, while following 7 days both plasma and erythrocyte vitamin E concentrations were significantly increased.
  • 3.3. Lung and liver vitamin E concentrations were elevated at both 3 and 7 days. At 3 days the increase in lung vitamin E was oxygen-dependent, suggesting that the lung increases uptake of vitamin E in response to oxidative stress.
  • 4.4. Despite an increase in the vitamin E concentration of the lungs of preterm guinea pigs, no amelioration of the lung injury was observed. These results suggest that although vitamin E is a potent antioxidant, it is unable to protect adequately the lungs from reactive oxygen species in the absence of sufficient primary enzymatic antioxidant defences.
