Calculations using different quantum mechanical methods including semiempirical (MNDO,AM1 and PM3), ab initio (RHF and MP2 calculations using the 6-311G and 6-311++G** basis sets), and density functional theory (LSDA, BP, MIXBP and B3LYP, i.e., B3LYP/6-311+G**//B3LYP/6-31G*) have been performed on the thermal fragmentation of cyclopropanone to ethylene and carbon monoxide. All RHF calculations predict a concerted single step mechanism for this conversion. The estimated activation energies vary from 34.4 to 54.6 kcal·mol-1, mainly localized around 37±2 kcal·mol-1, depending on the method. Whereas the calculated RHF reaction energies also varied from 14.5 to -33.3 kcal·mol-1, the B3LYP/6-311+G**//B3LYP/6-31G* method predicts the experimental value (-17.7 kcal·mol-1) within experimental uncertainties. Remarkably, semiempirical AM1 and PM3 methods and simple DFT calculations, LSDA, predict comparable results to the more advanced methods. UHF ab initio calculations predict the same single step mechanism, whereas a multistep biradical mechanism with an unrealistically low activation energy is favored by the semiempirical methods. Structures of the activated complex of the single step mechanism, estimated by different methods, are very similar and consistent with a nonlinear cheletropic [2s + 2a] reaction, as predicted by the orbital symmetry rules and earlier EHT calculations.Electronic Supplementary Material available. 相似文献

Time course of vasopressin-induced formation of microvilli in granular cells of toad urinary bladder
Summary Vasopressin-induced transformation of ridges to microvilli on the surface of granular cells of toad urinary bladder occurs in conjunction with induced alterations in the water permeability of the luminal membrane. This study was designed to establish the relationship between the time course for induction of microvilli and the time course for induction of increased water permeability after vasopressin stimulation. Hemibladders were examined at 2.5, 5, 10, 20 and 30 min following exposure to 20 mU/ml of vasopressin and at 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 min after washout of vasopressin. Within 2.5 min, vasopressin initiated complete transformation of ridges to microvilli on approximately 13% of the granular cells, while osmotic water flow (Jv) was 0.31±0.10 l·min–1·cm–2. Five minutes following vasopressin stimulation, microvilli were present on approximately 30% of granular cells andJv was 2.27±0.13 l·min–1·cm–2. At 10 minJv was maximum at 4.03±0.15 l·min–1·cm–2 and 50% of the granular cells were covered with microvilli. This percentage increased to 70% at 20 min and was maintained at 30 min, althoughJv decreased to 3.9±0.35 l·min–1·cm–2 at 30 min. Five minutes following vasopressin washout, ridges interspersed with microvilli reappeared asJv fell to 1.10±0.30 l·min–1·cm–2. At 10 min after vasopressin washout,Jv approached basal levels, but the reversal of microvilli to ridges remained incomplete. At 60 min after vasopressin washout, the granular cells had regained their original ridgelike surface structures. Thus, these studies establish a temporal relationship between the induction and reversibility of vasopressin-induced microvillous formation and alterations in the osmotic water permeability of the apical plasmalemma. 相似文献

Summary Colchicine, an agent which disrupts microtubules, inhibits the vasopressin (VP)-induced increase in water permeability as well as intramembranous particle (IMP) aggregation in the luminal plasma membrane of granular cells of toad urinary bladder. However, the hydroosmotic response induced by serosal hypertonicity is not affected by colchicine. The present investigation was initiated to establish whether serosal hypertonicity is associated with IMP aggregation and whether the aggregation, if present, is altered by colchicine. The experimental half of paired hemibladders from the toad, Bufo marinus, treated with 0.1 mM colchicine for 4 h prior to exposure to serosal mannitol (240 mM) demonstrated no significant difference in osmotic water How (Jv) (1.03 × 0.18 vs. 1.13 ± 0.22l · min–1 · cm–2; p>0.20) when compared with control hemibladders. Similarly, comparison of control and colchicine-treated bladders revealed no difference in the number of IMP aggregation sites per area of membrane (17.8 ± 2.0 vs. 24.7 ± 3.5/100m; p>0.10), the relative area of membrane occupied by these sites (0.30 ± 0.06 vs. 0.39 ± 0.07%; p>0.10) or the mean size of the aggregates (17.0 ± 1.4 vs. 15.8 ± 1.0 × 103 m2; p > 0.20). These results indicate that in toad bladder the increase in Jv induced by serosal hypertonicity is associated with IMP aggregation. Secondly, an intact microtubule system is not required to induce the hydroosmotic or the aggregation responses. If, as has been proposed, the cellular actions of VP and serosal hypertonicity share a common pathway to bring about an increase in osmotic water permeability and cause IMP aggregation in the luminal membrane of the granular cell, the present results suggest that the pathway begins at a step subsequent not only to the generation of cAMP, but also beyond the involvement of the microtubule system.This work was supported in part by U.S. Public Health Service Grant AM 13845.

Summary In vivo electrolyte transport and water absorption from the caeca of dehydrated, low-NaCl diet hens are reported. In the absence of luminal glucose or acetate, net electrolyte transport rates and water absorption are small. When physiological concentrations of acetate (40 mM) are included in the perfusate, Na+ transport and water absorption increase significantly (P<0.01): 38±7 eqNa+/caecum kg·h and 256±33 l H2O/caecum · kg · h.A similar increase in water absorption occurs with the inclusion of 15 mM glucose in the perfusate (219±30 l H2O/caecum · kg · h), however both net Na+ and Cl– absorption increase: 28±6 eq Na+/caecum · kg · h and 21±5 eq Cl–/caecum kg · h.These pronounced increases in electrolyte and water absorption are not accompanied by any significant increase in transmural potential difference.The data presented establish caeca as important sites in the recuperation of water and electrolytes in dehydrated, low-NaCl diet hens.Abbreviations

Summary Respiratory gas exchange and blood respiratory properties have been studied in the East-African tree frogChiromantis petersi. This frog is unusually xerophilous, occupies dry habitats and prefers body temperatures near 40°C and direct solar exposure. Total O2 uptake was low at 81 l O2·g–1·h–1±19.0 (SD) at 25°C increasing to 253.5 l O2·g–1·h–1±94.8 (SD) at 40°C giving aQ
10 value of 2.1. Skin O2 uptake at 25°C was 38.5% of total. The gas exchange ratio was 0.71 for whole body gas exchange, 0.61 for the lungs and 1.02 for the skin at 25°C.Blood O2 affinity was low with aP
50 of 47.5 mmHg at 25°C and pH 7.65. Then
H-value at 25°C increased from 2.7 aroundP
50 to 5.0 at O2 saturations exceeding 70–80%. Surprisingly, blood O2 affinity was nearly insensitive to temperature expressed by a H value of ±1.0 kcal·mole between 25 and 40°C.The adaptive significance of the low O2 affinity, the increase ofn
H with O2 saturation and the temperature insensitive O2-Hb binding is discussed in relation to the high and fluctuating body temperatures ofChiromantis. 相似文献

Summary The transepithelial water permeability in frog urinary bladder is believed to be essentially dependent on the ADH-regulated apical water permeability. To get a better understanding of the transmural water movement, the diffusional water permeability (P
d) of the basolateral membrane of urinary bladder was studied. Access to this post-luminal barrier was made possible by perforating the apical membrane with amphotericin B. The addition of this antibiotic increasedP
d from 1.12±0.10×10–4 cm/sec (n=7) to 4.08±0.33×10–4 cm/sec (n=7). The effect of mercuric sulfhydryl reagents, which are commonly used to characterize water channels, was tested on amphotericin B-treated bladders. HgCl2 (10–3
m) decreasedP
d by 52% andpara-chloromercuribenzoic acid (pCMB) (1.4×10–4
m) by 34%. The activation energy for the diffusional water transport was found to increase from 4.52±0.23 kcal/mol (n=3), in the control situation, to 9.99±0.91 kcal/mol (n=4) in the presence of 1.4×10–4
m
pCMB. Our second approach was to measure the kinetics of water efflux, by stop-flow light scattering, on isolated epithelial cells from urinary bladders.pCMB (0.5 or 1.4×10–4
m) was found to inhibit water exit by 91±2%. These data strongly support the existence of proteins responsible for water transport across the basolateral membrane, which are permanently present. 相似文献

Stem cells are important for regenerative medicine mainly due to their multilineage differentiation capacity. However, the cells rapidly loose this capability during culturing. Cryopreservation preserves the differentiation potential of the cells, until they are needed. In this study, specific cell properties of multipotent stromal cells (MSCs), from the common marmoset monkey Callithrix jacchus MSCs derived from amnion (Am) and bone marrow (Bm) were studied in order to predict optimal cooling rates for cryopreservation. Cell volume behaviour in anisotonic media, hydraulic membrane permeability at supra as well as subzero temperatures, and time point of intracellular ice formation (IIF) were investigated by Coulter Counter and cryomicroscopy. Cryopreservation outcome was studied using the predicted and experimentally determined cooling rate followed by 24 h re-cultivation. Little differences in osmotically inactive volume were found between amnion (0.27 × Vo) and bone marrow (0.28 × Vo) derived MSCs. The activation energy for water transport at suprazero temperature was found to be similar for both cell types; 4.4 ± 0.2 and 5.0 ± 0.15 kcal mol−1 for amnion and bone marrow derived MSCs, respectively. At subzero temperatures in the absence of dimethyl sulfoxide (Me2SO), the activation energy for water transport increased to 24.8 ± 3 kcal mol−1 and 27.4 ± 0.9 kcal mol−1 for Am and BmMSCs respectively. In the presence of Me2SO, activation energies were found to be 11.6 ± 0.3 kcal mol−1 and 19.5 ± 0.5 kcal mol−1 respectively. Furthermore, Me2SO was found to decrease the incidence of intracellular ice formation. The predicted optimal cooling rates of 11.6 ± 0.9 °C/min (AmMSCs) and 16.3 ± 0.5 °C/min (BmMSCs) resulted in similar post-thaw viability values compared to the experimentally determined optimal cooling profiles of 7.5 °C/min to −30 °C, followed by 3 °C/min to −80 °C. 相似文献

Summary The decreasing effect of -adrenergic blockade on skin resistance to vapor diffusion and the onset of cutaneous water evaporation in the pigeon (Columba livia) was investigated. Oral administration of 1, 2.3 and 5 mg propranolol to pigeons (268±53 g) initiated intensive trans-cutaneous water evaporation (CWE) up to 29.1 mg H2O·cm–2·h–1 in resting birds at 30°C air temperature (Ta), but had only a slight effect on CWE of birds exposed to 50 °C Ta.After 7 h of effective -adrenergic blockade (oral administration of 5 mg propranolol), skin and body temperature stabilized at 39.0±0.5 °C and 41.0±0.7 °C, compared to 40.2±0.8 °C and 41.9±0.6 °C in the control group, respectively. A slight hypothermia was accompanied by feather fluffing.Intradermal injection of 0.001, 0.01 and 0.12 mg propranolol also caused intensive CWE. Local -adrenergic blockade in relatively low blocker doses (0.001 and 0.01 mg propranolol) decreased skin resistance from a high value of 44.5 s·cm–1 to about 6.0 s·cm–1, and caused a sharp increase in CWE from a control value of about 4 to a high of 26.4 mg H2O·cm–2·h–1 during the first two hours of exposure to 30°C Ta.The possible role of -adrenergic blockade in regulation of trans-cutaneous water evaporation of latent heat dissipation is discussed. 相似文献

The enzymatic activity (expressed as milliunits per milligram total proteins) of three intestinal brush-border membrane enzymes, leucine aminopeptidase, alkaline phosphatase and maltase, measured over a range of temperatures between 1.5 and 37 °C, has been found to be much higher in the Antarctic fish Pagothenia bernacchii than in the temperate fish Anguilla anguilla. To explain this experimental observation the apparent Michaelis-Menten constant, the maximal velocity, the activation energy values and the thermal stability of these three enzymes were measured. The apparent Michaelis-Menten constant values of leucine amino peptidase and alkaline phosphatase were different in the intestine mucosal homogenate of the two fish at each measured temperature (from a minimum of 2.5 to a maximum of 37 °C). However, the values found at 2.5 °C for the Antarctic species and 15 °C for the eel where comparable. Furthermore, its value was unchanged in eel intestine apical membranes, both in the presence and without enzyme lipid microenvironment. While the maximal enzymatic activities of the leucine aminopeptidase and maltase did not decrease without their enzyme lipid microenvironment, produced by treatment with Triton X-100, the impairment of alkaline phosphatase maximal activity cannot be significantly differentiated from a non-specific inhibitory effect of the detergent. The activation energy values of leucine amino peptidase, alkaline phosphatase and maltase were lower in the Antarctic fish (11.7, 5.6 and 11.8 kcal·mol-1, respectively) than in the eel (13.6, 7.6 and 13.1 kcal·mol-1, respectively). The thermal stability of alkaline phosphatase and maltase is different in Pagothenia bernacchii and Anguilla anguilla intestinal homogenate.Abbreviations BBM

Saliva was collected from the mandibular glands of anaesthetized common wombats (Vombatus ursinus) to ascertain maximal flow rates, salivary compostion and possible adaptations, particularly PO4
3- secretion, to assist digestion. After temporary catheterization of the main duct through its oral opening, salivary secretion was evoked at flow rates ranging from 0.02±0.002 (±SEM) ml·min-1 (0.7±0.07 l·min-1·kg body weight-1) to 0.4±0.05 ml·min-1(14±1.9 l·min-1·kg body weight-1) by ipsilateral intracarotid infusion of acetylcholine. The [Na+] (15±5.1 to 58±8.6 mmol·l-1) and [HCO3
-] (35±1.9 to 60±1.9 mmol·l-1) were positively correlated with salivary flow rate. The [K+] (58±5.2 to 30±2.4 mmol·l-1), [Ca2+] (10.4±1.67 to 4.1±0.44 mmol·l-1), [Mg2+] (0.94±0.137 to 0.17±0.032 mmol·l-1), [Cl-] (71±9.2 to 45±6.0 mmol·l-1), [urea] (9.3±0.79 to 5.1±0.54 mmol·l-1), H+ activity (29±1.6 to 17±1.6 nEq·l-1) and amylase activity (251±57.4 to 92±23.3 kat·l-1) were negatively correlated with flow. Both concentration and osmolality fell with increasing flow at the lower end of the flow range but osmolality always increased again by maximal flow whereas the relation between protein and flow was not consistent at the higher levels of flow and stimulation. Salivary [PO4
3+] was not correlated with flow and at 3–14% of the plasma concentration was extremely low. Thus, in contrast to its nearest relative, the koala (Phascolarctos cinereus), the wombat secretes little PO4
3+ presumably because it does not need high levels of PO4

Water permeability and composition of soluble cuticular lipids of isolated cuticular membranes from leaves of Citrus aurantium L. were investigated for 3 successive years. The average water permeability coefficient determined using 169 cuticular membranes was 1.09·10–7 cm s–1 with a standard deviation of 0.78·10–7 cm s–1. There were no significant differences in water permeability between years. Cuticular membranes are characterized by a great variability in water permeability both within and between years. Both water permeability of individual membranes and variability between membranes are shown to be determined by soluble cuticular lipids contained within the cuticular membranes. The soluble cuticular lipids of Citrus leaves are composed of fatty acids, primary alcohols, esters, and hydrocarbons. They occur in amounts of 9.84 g cm–2, which represents approx. 3% of the total mass of isolated cuticular membranes. The specific weight of cuticular membranes (365.4 g cm–1) and total amount of soluble cuticular lipids did not vary significantly between years. Significant differences were observed for the amounts and composition of the constituent classes of lipids. Six homologues comprise 86% of the fatty acids (C16; C18; C19; C21; C24; C26), 83% of the primary alcohols (C24; C26; C28; C30; C32; C34) and 88% of the esters (C36; C38; C40; C41; C42; C44). Eleven major homologues amount only to 62% of the total hydrocarbons (C16; C17; C18; C20; C26; C27; C29; C30; C31; C32; C33). Variability in the composition of soluble cuticular lipids between years was much smaller than variability of water permeability and, therefore, no relation between composition of soluble cuticular lipids and water permeability could be found. It is suggested that this may be due to the fact that the lipid composition observed represents the averages of 20 to 30 membranes analyzed so that differences between individual membranes may have been leveled out.Abbreviations CM

Summary The kidneys of winter flounders transferred to hypotonic medium were investigated for glomerular and tubular handling of fluid and electrolytes and for the urinary excretion of proteins. Media were sea water (925 mosm·kg–1) and brackish water (70 mosm·kg–1).In sea water, the urine was hypertonic to the plasma in 7 fish of this study. Urine flow rate was correlated with the GFR. After adaptation to brackish water a delay of 1 to 3 days was observed until the kidneys switched from fluid retention to the excretion of large amounts of dilute urine. GFR and urine flow rate were increased from 0.61±0.08 to 1.58±0.29 ml·h–1·kg–1 and from 0.14±0.02 to 0.68±0.08 ml·h–1·kg–1, respectively
. With increased filtered load the tubular reabsorption of fluid decreased from 74±2.4% to 45±11.2%. The excretion rates of sodium and potassium were increased due to decreased fractional sodium and potassium reabsorption. The urinary excretion of divalent cations, however, was reduced because the net tubular reabsorption of calcium was increased and the net secretion of magnesium was diminished.Both the urinary total protein concentration and the protein pattern showed no significant change, but the rate of protein excretion was increased from 0.21±0.04 to 0.60±0.05 mg·h–1·kg–1. The comparison of protein patterns obtained from urine and serum samples revealed that high molecular weight (HMW) proteins prevail in the serum whereas low molecular weight (LMW) proteins dominate in the urine. The diminished quantity of the HMW-protein fraction in the urine thus may reflect size selectivity of the glomerular filtration barrier for serum proteins also in the winter flounder.Abbreviations

Mechanisms involved in cold hardiness of cocoons of the lumbricid earthworm Dendrobaena octaedra were elucidated by osmometric and calorimetric studies of water relations in cocoons exposed to subzero temperatures. Fully hydrated cocoons contained ca. 3 g water · g dry weight-1; about 15% of this water (0.5 g·g dry weight-1) was osmotically inactive or bound. The melting point of the cocoon fluids in fully hydrated cocoons was-0.20°C. Exposure to frozen surroundings initially resulted in supercooling of the cocoons dehydrated (as a result of the vapour pressure difference at a given temperature between supercooled water and ice) to an extent where the vapour pressure of water in the body fluids was in equilibrium with the surrounding ice. This resulted in a profound dehydration of the cocoons, even at mild freezing exposures, and a concomitant slight reduction in the amount of osmotically inactive water. At temperatures around-8°C, which cocoons readily survive, almost all (>97%) osmotically active water had been withdrawn from the cocoons. It is suggested that cold injuries in D. octaedra cocoons observed at still lower temperatures may be related to the degree of dehydration, and possibly to the loss of all osmotically active water. The study indicates that ice formation in the tissues is prevented by equilibrating the body fluid melting point with the exposure temperature. This winter survival mechanism does not conform with the freeze tolerance/freeze avoidance classification generally applied to cold-hardy poikilotherms. Implications of this cold hardiness mechanism for other semi-terrestrial invertebrates are discussed.Abbreviations DSC

Down-regulation of blood-brain glucose transport in the hyperglycemic nonobese diabetic mouse 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The intracarotid injection method has been utilized to examine blood-brain barrier (BBB) glucose transport in hyperglycemic (4–6 days) mice. In anesthetized mice, Brain Uptake Indices were measured over a range of glucose concentrations from 0.010–50 mmol/l; glucose uptake was found to be saturable and kinetically characterized. The maximal velocity (Vmax) for glucose transport was 989±214 nmol·min–1·g–1· and the half-saturation constant estimated to be 5.80±1.38 mmol/l. The unsaturated Permeability Surface are product (PS) is=171+8 l·min.–1·g–1. A rabbit polyclonal antiserum to a synthetic peptide encoding the 13 C-terminal amino acids of the human erythrocyte glucose transporter immunocytochemically confirmed the presence of the GLUT1 isoform in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse brain capillary endothelia. These studies indicate that a down-regulation of BBB glucose transport occurs in these spontaneously hyperglycemic mice; both BBB glucose permeability (as indicated by PS product) and transporter maximal velocity are reduced (in comparison to normoglycemic CD-1 mice), but the half-saturation constant remains unchanged. 相似文献

Possible mechanisms of primary fluid formation by macropodine parotid glands were investigated in anaesthetized red kangaroos using ion transport inhibitors. Carotid plasma amiloride concentrations of 0.05–0.5 mmol·l-1 progressively reduced a stable acetylcholine-evoked half-maximal flow rate of 2.0±0.04 to 0.22±0.024 ml·min-1 (mean±SEM). Concurrently, saliva bicarbonate concentration and secretion fell (135±1.6 to 67±1.7 mmol·l-1 and 272±7.6 to 15±2.6 mol·min-1, respectively); [phosphate], [chloride] and [sodium] rose and [potassium] and osmolality were unaltered. High-rate cholinergic stimulation did not increase saliva flow beyond 11±1.0% of that for equivalent pre-amiloride stimulation. Equipotent levels of amiloride and methazolamide given concurrently were no more effective at blocking flow and bicarbonate secretion than when given separately. Furosemide (up to 2 mmol·l-1), bumetanide (up to 0.2 mmol·l-1) and ethacrynate (1 mmol·l-1) in carotid plasma had no effect on salivary flow or ion concentrations. During methazolamide blockade, furosemide did not curtail the concurrent increase in salivary [chloride]. Chlorothiazide at 0.25–1.0 mmol·l-1 caused progressive depression of saliva flow and [bicarbonate], and elevation of [chloride]. 4-acetamido-4-isothiocyanatostilbene-2,2 disulphonic acid at 0.1 mmol·l-1 was without effect, whereas at 0.5 mmol·l-1 it stimulated fluid secretion and increased saliva [protein], [sodium], [potassium], [bicarbonate] and osmolality. Concurrently, mean arterial blood pressure and pulse pressure fell and heart rate, haematocrit and carotid artery plasma flow rose. These responses were absent if saliva flow was kept constant by reduction in cholinergic stimulation during 4-acetamido-4-isothiocyanatostilbene-2,2 disulphonic acid administration. It is concluded that secretion of primary fluid by the kangaroo parotid is initiated mainly (>90%) by secretion of bicarbonate which is formed in the endpiece cells from CO2 delivered by the circulation. No evidence was found for initiation of fluid secretion by chloride transport involving basolateral Na+-K+-2Cl- symports, Na+-Cl- symports or Cl-/HCO

Summary Leeches were placed in a 0.8 m linear temperature gradient from 0°C to 40°C. The temperature selected by the leeches was recorded over 30 min intervals; series of animals then received an injection of either pure sterile water,Escherichia coli endotoxin (LPS) at doses of 0.05, 0.25 and 10 g·g–1, alcohol, or prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) at doses of 2 and 4 g·g–1. After a latency of about 90 min, the leeches developed a dose-dependent fever in response to LPS. Maximal preferred temperature was near 29.6±1.4 whereas the control was 20.5±0.6°C. PGE1 also evoked dose-dependent fevers of the same magnitude as LPS (30.0±1.0°C), but without latency. Another series of leeches received an injection of LPS of 10 g·g–1 while in water containing 1.6 mg acetaminophen per 20 l water. Acetaminophen prevented the development of LPS fever. It is concluded that annelids respond to infection with a behavioral fever analogous to that of vertebrates. 相似文献

Summary The uptake of C14-urea into everted and noneverted bladder sacs was compared, over short time periods (up to 2 min), with the transepithelial urea fluxes. This method allowed the study of the time course of urea uptake and distribution, while previously this problem was only studied in steady-state conditions. When mucosal uptake was studied no accumulation of C14-urea inside the tissue was observed, indicating that the mucosal border could be the limiting step. Comparative studies of urea and inulin uptake from the serosal side showed that urea equilibrated with the water epithelial cells in less than 30 sec. This accumulation suggested again that the mucosal border is an effective barrier for urea translocation. The kinetics of the increase in urea permeability induced by antidiuretic hormone was also studied and it was similar (T1/2:4.3 min) to the kinetics of the increase in water permeability induced by the hormone (T1/2:5.6 min). A strong parallelism was also observed between the time course of the increases in water and urea permeabilities induced by medium hypertonicity (T1/2 25 and 26 min, respectively). The values obtained for the permeability coefficientk

Summary Paired toad urinary bladders were prepared without or with an osmotic gradient (175 mosm) across them, stimulated for 2.5 (n=6), 5 (n=6), 30 (n=6) or 60 (n=6) min with ADH (20 mU/ml), and studied by freeze-fracture electron microscopy. Water permeability at these times was assessed in additional bladders (n=6 for each case) after tissue fixation according to the technique of Eggena. After both 60 and 30 min of ADH stimulation, the presence of a gradient compared with the absence of one was associated with fewer aggregates (242±35vs. 382±14 ×235 m–2 at 60 min,P<0.01; 279±36vs. 470±51 ×235 m–2 at 30 min,P<0.01) and lower water permeability (8.4±1.1vs. 18.8±1.8g×min–1×cm–1 ×mosm
–1 at60min,P<0.005; 9.2±1.0vs. 22.0±2.1 g ×min–1×cm–2×mosm
–1 at 30 min,P<0.001). In addition, with a gradient both maximum water permeability and maximum aggregate frequency were reached nearly together; a similar correspondence occurred without a gradient. We conclude that in the presence of an osmotic gradient both the ADH-associated aggregates and the water permeability response to ADH are prevented from reaching the higher levels observed in bladders not exposed to a gradient. 相似文献
