Utilization of oleic acid in whole dog kidneys perfused in vitro for 24 hr at 10 degrees C was studied, and the data were correlated with results on the utilization of oleic acid in kidney slices incubated in the same perfusate at 10 degrees C. Kidneys perfused without added oleate lost 35% of their total lipid content and 27% of their phospholipids. Addition of serum albumin-bound oleate to the perfusate prevented the loss of neutral lipid and reduced the loss of phospholipid to 8%. The kidney slices incorporated 29% of the added oleate into lipid and oxidized 3.2% to CO(2). Oleate apparently largely replaces endogenous fatty acids which are oxidized to meet the energy requirements of the kidney. The loss of phospholipid from the perfused organ is taken as an indication of cell damage, which may be reduced but is not prevented by the addition of oleate to the perfusate. 相似文献

An eight-channel programmed flow system for automatic lipid extraction and TLC application is described. Each channel has a container for lipid extraction connected by Acidflex tubing through an AutoAnalyzer pump to a TLC applicator needle. Extraction containers are prepared from disposable Oxford sampler pipet tips by inserting a small cotton filter into their lower, narrower end, which is connected to the pump tubing. The applicator needles are supported vertically in a manifold, and their tips rest on a TLC plate placed on a hot plate. Serum is added to isopropanol in each extraction container, and proteins are completely precipitated in 2 min and retained in the extraction chambers by the cotton filters; lipid extracts are then transferred on to the heated TLC plate by intermittent pumping at a rate allowing for continuous evaporation of isopropanol under streams of warmed air or nitrogen. The lipids accumulate on the plate in eight small spots, one for each channel. Solvent is proportionally added into the extraction chambers from a common reservoir through Acidflex tubing in a second AutoAnalyzer pump. During the extraction procedure, both pump motors are automatically operated by a programmed timer with a solid-state switch. Of several different solvents tested, isopropanol is the fastest for protein precipitation and lipid extraction and does not extract substances from the Acidflex tubing which interfere with chromatographic separation. 相似文献

IT has become clear that some plastics contaminate materials or fluids with toxic substances1–4,8. I report here evidence that serum-containing solutions perfused through polyvinyl chloride administration tubing, of the type used routinely for blood transfusions, become highly toxic to heart cells isolated in tissue culture. 相似文献

Microdialysis catheters (CMA-60 with a polyamide dialysis membrane; 20,000-molecular wt cutoff) were either immersed in an external medium or were inserted in the quadriceps femoris muscle of healthy subjects, using perfusate with or without dextran 70. Varying the position of the outflow tubing induced changes in hydrostatic pressure. The sample volumes were significantly smaller in catheters perfused without a colloid compared with those perfused with a colloid [11-50% (in vitro) and 8-59% (in vivo) lower than in colloid-perfused catheters with the same position of the outflow tubing]. The sample volumes were also significantly smaller when the dialysis membrane was influenced by maximal hydrostatic pressure (above position) compared with minimal hydrostatic pressure (below position) [7-38% (in vitro) and 3-46% (in vivo) lower than in catheters in the below position with the same perfusion fluid]. In vivo, glucose concentration at a perfusion flow rate of 0.33 microl/min was higher when the catheters were perfused without a colloid [18-28% higher than in colloid-perfused catheters with the same position of the outflow tubing (P < 0.001)] than with a colloid. A corresponding difference also tended to occur with lactate, glycerol, and urea. At 0.16 microl/min, the glucose concentration was the same irrespective of whether fluid loss had been counteracted by colloid inclusion or by lowering of outlet tubing. The mechanism behind the observed concentration difference is thought to be a higher effective perfusion flow rate when fluid loss is prevented at low-perfusion flows. This study shows that fluid imbalances can have important implications for microdialysis results at low-perfusion flow rates. 相似文献

We require repeated blood samples from rats over long periods in our studies on obese hyperlipemic animals and normal controls. Under our conditions of lipid adnormality and exercise previously reported techniques did not give long-term cannula patency. We have thus developed a technique using thromboresistant heparin-treated Silastic tubing and a mesh-stabilized metal cannula at the base of the skull. The tubing is inserted into the vena cava without occlusion and the tip lying in the region of the termination of the hepatic veins. The tubing exists from the abdomen through the incision and runs subcutaneously to a metal tube protruding from the skin. It is closed with a short length of polyethylene tubing folded over and secured with a tight Teflon sleeve. Heparinized saline is used to fill the cannula and flush it at biweekly intervals. The cannulas remain patent for long periods with 59% permitting withdrawal of blood at 120 days. Loss of function is random after 30 days when 100% were patent. A significant number remain functional at 200 days. 相似文献

The experimental setup, consisting of a bundle of dialysis tubing 2.5 mm in diameter [10-15 kD cutoff, mean pore size 25 A, 20 microns (dry) and 40 microns (wet) wall thickness] inserted into a 1-l glass bioreactor supplied with oxygen and pH electrodes, a porous gas distributor, a sampling tube, and a holder for the eight pieces of dialysis tubing, was developed to investigate the properties and the microenvironment of hybridoma cells enclosed in the tubing during their batch cultivation. The concentrations of low-molecular-weight medium components were the same inside and outside the tubing, and it was possible to control the microenvironment of the cells in the tubing easily. The cell damage caused by mechanical stress was less in the dialysis tubing than in stirred spinner flasks. The influence of the initial cell density in the range from 4 X 10(5) to 1 X 10(8) cells ml-1 and the cultivation time were evaluated according to the total and viable cell concentrations and the cell/cell fragment size distributions. Furthermore, the cell membrane properties, glucose consumption rate, lactate, ammonia and lipid storage material, and the monoclonal antibody production rates as well as intracellular enzyme activities in the culture medium were measured and compared to those in reference cultures in spinner flasks with the same inoculum at low initial cell densities. In dialysis tubing in a concentration range of 5 X 10(6) to 10(8) cells ml-1, the total and viable concentrations of cells remained the same during cultivation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Growth of the obligately methylotrophic Bacterium B6/2 in continuous culture was inhibited when the mineral salts-methylamine medium was supplied through silicone rubber tubing which had been autoclaved more than 50 times. The growth inhibition was removed when the medium was supplied through new silicone rubber tubing. Growth in small-scale batch cultures was delayed or inhibited after the medium passed through the former tubing but not when it had passed through the latter. It is recommended that silicone rubber medium supply lines to chemostats are replaced periodically. 相似文献

The rat pericoronary adipose tissue was perfused in the presence of either the liposynthetic hormone insulin or the lipolytic hormone noradrenaline. Insulin perfusion associated with a) larger adipocyte mean sectional diameter in comparison with noradrenaline perfusion; b) glycogen deposition; c) appearance of small fat globules at discrete sites at the periphery of the main lipid drop. The two latter phenomena were apparently dose-dependent. Massive lipid deposition was induced by addition of triglycerides to the perfusion medium and this associated with appearance of prominent endoplasmic reticulum in the cytoplasm. In noradrenaline-perfused adipose tissue many small lipid droplets surrounded the central lipid deposit and the endoplasmic reticulum was in the form of both thin long, dashed cisternae sometime surrounding lipid droplets and grouped, anastomosing tubular cisternae. The present work shows that the perfused white adipose tissue of the heart is a suitable model to study, in situ, the morphological effects of hormones in adipocytes. 相似文献

Conversion of AI to AII has been studied in the mesenteric circulation of the isolated perfused cat terminal ileum. Infusion of AI through the mesenteric circulation induced a significantly potentiated response when the venous return was superfused over the rat colon and the rabbit aortic strip. Addition of converting-enzyme inhibitor, SQ 20881 to the perfusion medium competitively prevented the potentiation of AI on the assay organs without altering its direct effects. The percent conversion of AI to AII was found to be 68 in the mesenteric circulation. In contrast, infusion of AII through the mesenteric circulation has lost about 40% of its biological activity as measured on the same assay organs. SQ 20881 abolished the inactivation of AII in the mesenteric circulation. It is concluded that the mesenteric circulation of the isolated perfused cat terminal ileum is one of the major conversion areas of AI to AII. SQ 20881 prevented the conversion of AI to AII as well as abolishing the inhibition of AII passing through the mesenteric circulation. 相似文献

To determine if chylomicron triglycerides are taken up and metabolized by the arterial wall, rabbit abdominal aortas were perfused in situ for various times up to 2 hr with blood-buffer containing isotopically labeled substrates. Labeled chylomicrons were obtained by feeding [(3)H]palmitic acid or [(3)H]glyceryl trioleate to rats and rabbits with cannulated thoracic ducts. After aortic perfusion with these chylomicrons, more than 85% of aortic lipid ester radioactivity was in triglyceride; when labeled glycerol or palmitic acid was perfused, most aortic ester lipid radioactivity was in diglycerides and phospholipids. This indicated that, during perfusion with chylomicrons, intact triglyceride molecules were taken up by aorta. The rate of triglyceride fatty acid uptake by the inner avascular segment approached maximal values at low concentrations of perfusate triglyceride fatty acids (2 mm), whereas uptake in the outer capillary perfused segment increased with increasing triglyceride fatty acid concentration (0.4-25 mm). By double-radioisotope techniques it was shown that aortic free fatty acid was derived from both perfusate free fatty acids and from hydrolysis of lipoprotein glycerides within the aortic wall. Uptake of chylomicron triglyceride by perfused aorta was independent of triglyceride hydrolysis, which was quantitatively small. 相似文献

Venous waterfalls in coronary circulation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Several studies of flow through collapsible tubing deformed by external pressures have led to a concept known as the "vascular waterfall". One hallmark of this state is a positive zero-flow pressure intercept (Pe) in flow-pressure curves. This intercept is commonly observed in the coronary circulation, but in blood-perfused beating hearts a vascular waterfall is not the only putative cause. To restrict the possibilities, we have measured flow-pressure curves in excised non-beating rabbit hearts in which the coronary arteries were perfused in a non-pulsatile way with a newtonian fluid (Ringers solution) containing potent vasodilator drugs. Under these circumstances, vascular waterfalls are believed to be the only tenable explanation for Pe. In physical terms the waterfall is a region where the vessel is in a state of partial collapse with a stabilized intraluminal fluid pressure (Pw). It is argued that the most probable site of this collapse was the intramural veins just before they reached the epicardial surface. In accord with the waterfall hypothesis, Pe increased as the heart became more edematous, but flow-pressure curves also became flatter, implying multiple waterfalls with differing Pws, leading to complete collapse of some of the venous channels. The principal compressive force is believed to have been the interstitial fluid pressure as registered through a needle (Pn) implanted in the left ventricular wall, but a small additional force (Ps) was probably due to swelling of interstitial gels. A method is presented for estimating Ps and Pw. Unlike rubber tubing, blood vessels are both collapsible and porous. Apparently because of increased capillary filtration, Pn was found to increase linearly with the perfusion pressure. Thus, Pw was not the same at all points on the flow-pressure curve. This finding has interesting implications with respect to the concept of coronary resistance. 相似文献

The effects of experimentally induced diabetes on the conversion of glucose to lipid in the isolated perfused rat lung were examined. Alloxan diabetes and streptozotocin diabetes reduced the incorporation of glucose into the neutral lipid and phospholipid fractions of the lung to a rate less than 40% of that observed in normal animals. This phenomenon appears to be related to insulin deficiency as lungs from diabetic rats treated for one week with insulin were capable of incorporating glucose at a rate comparable to that observed in normal animals. While insulin altered lipid metabolism in perfused lung, insulin had no demonstrable effect on lipid metabolism in the perfused lung, an indication that the effects of the hormone may be long term rather than short term. These data indicate that pulmonary lipid metabolism may be regulated by the action of insulin. 相似文献

Rats were implanted with 0.3-mm-diameter dialysis tubing through the hippocampus and subsequently perfused with Ringer's solution at a flow rate of 2 microliter/min. Samples of the perfusate representing the extracellular fluid were collected over 5-min periods and subsequently analyzed for contents of the amino acids glutamate, aspartate, glutamine, taurine, alanine, and serine. Samples were collected before, during, and after a 10-min period of transient complete cerebral ischemia. The extracellular contents of glutamate and aspartate were increased, respectively, eight- and threefold during the ischemic period; the taurine concentration also was increased 2.6-fold. During the same period the extracellular content of glutamine was significantly decreased (to 68% of the control value), whereas the concentrations of alanine and serine did not change significantly during the ischemic period. The concentrations of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) were too low to be measured reliably. It is suggested that the large increase in the content of extracellular glutamate and aspartate in the hippocampus induced by the ischemia may be one of the causal factors in the damage to certain neurons observed after ischemia. 相似文献

Abstract: To study the effects of lipid hydroperoxide on ionotropic neurotransmitter receptors, γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), N -methyl- d -aspartate (NMDA), and non-NMDA receptors (GABARs, NMDARs, and non-NMDARs, respectively) were expressed in Xenopus oocytes that received an injection of mRNA prepared from rat whole brain. Linoleic acid (LA) and its hydroperoxide 13- l -hydroperoxylinoleic acid (LOOH) prepared with soybean lipoxygenase inhibited the response of GABARs in the presence of GABA at high concentrations. The inhibition was stronger when the inhibitors were perfused 1 min before a mixture of GABA and the inhibitors than when they were perfused simultaneously with GABA. On the other hand, only LOOH potentiated the response of GABARs in the presence of GABA at low concentrations, possibly increasing the affinity of GABA to the receptors. Both LA and LOOH accelerated the rate of desensitization of GABARs, but LOOH did not affect their equilibrium between the active and desensitized form of the receptors. They also inhibited the response of NMDARs in a noncompetitive manner but barely inhibited the response of non-NMDARs in the presence of kainate at various concentrations. These results suggest the possibility that production of lipid hydroperoxide modulates the neural transmission in the brain, especially through GABARs. 相似文献

The contribution of triacylglycerol to energy provision in the hypertrophied heart, mediated through lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is largely unknown and the contribution of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) receptor to control of LPL presentation at the endothelium is unclear. For isolated perfused rat hearts, cold acclimation (CA) induced volume-overload hypertrophy, with decreased developed pressure (P<0.01), increased end-diastolic volume of the left ventricle (P<0.001) and a loss of contractile reserve in response to dobutamine challenge (P<0.01). Oleate utilisation by perfused hearts was unchanged by CA, however uptake of intralipid emulsion increased 3-fold (P<0.01). CA increased the proportion of lipid deposited in tissue lipids from 10% in euthermic controls to 40% (P<0.01) although the overall contribution of individual lipid classes was unaffected. Cold acclimation significantly increased heparin-releasable LPL (P<0.05) and tissue residual LPL (P<0.01). Western blot analysis indicated preserved expression of proteins coding for SERCA2, muscle-CPT1 and VLDL-receptor following CA, while AMPKalpha2 and phospho-AMPKalpha2 were unaffected. These observations indicate that for physiological hypertrophy AMPK phosphorylation does not mediate the enhanced translocation of LPL to cardiac endothelium. 相似文献

Summary To efficiently supply inhibitory aromatic solvents such as benzene, toluene, and xylenes in liquid phase for aerobic biodegradation
processes, a novel technique was developed. Silicon tubing was immersed in the bioreactor and liquid solvent was circulated
within the tubing from a solvent reservoir. Transfer rate of the solvent through a silicon tubing was significantly affected
by impeller speed, whereas other operating parameters such as aeration rate and circulation rate of liquid solvent within
the tubing showed a negligible effect. Aerobic biodegradation of toluene and p-xylene was carried out using this method and
the biodegradation rate of solvent mixture was high compared to those of conventional methods. 相似文献

The kinetics of accumulation of lipid peroxidation products (hydroperoxides as primary products and malonic dialdehyde and "fluorescent pigments" as secondary ones) was investigated in an isolated non-perfused and preliminarily perfused liver during aerobic incubation. In the course of surviving there takes place an intensive accumulation of primary, secondary and final products of lipid peroxidation whose kinetics is of an extreme character. The rate of this process in a non-perfused liver is considerably higher than in a preliminarily perfused liver. 相似文献

Most perfusion techniques rely on mechanical means to provide blood flow to the isolated organ for maintaining its physiological conditions. The approach usually requires a complicated mechanical system with the associated problems of blood type matching and prevention of blood cell damage. This paper describes a gastrointestinal tract perfusion technique that uses the rabbit's own cardiopulmonary system as the autologous blood supply source. The technique allows for the removal of the complete intestinal loop from the abdominal cavity of the rabbit, and maintains its blood circulation through silastic tubing connections of the catheterized portal vein and cranial and caudal mesenteric arteries. An alternative perfusion site that uses the aorta as the arterial blood supply and the vena cava as the venous return also is described. The isolated perfused GI tract may then be placed in a separate test environment for controlled experiments. For an acute animal test, the approach was found to be a convenient alternative to conventional approaches. 相似文献

Rabbit kidneys have been perfused for 24 hr at 5 °C and tested by autotransplantation with immediate contralateral nephrectomy. The perfusate contained an extracellular balance of ions with dextran and bovine serum albumin. The circuit included a nonpulsatile pump, a 0.22-μm membrane filter, and an oxygenator.The efficiency of membrane, film, and bubble oxygenators was compared. Flat membrane oxygenators were found to be more efficient than tubing oxygenators, and although the bubble oxygenator was the most efficient it created problems with foaming. A simple film oxygenator provided the best compromise.Ten kidneys were perfused and transplanted in each of three experimental groups; a film oxygenator was used to provide partial pressures of oxygen of 676 mmHg, 137 mmHg, and 9 mmHg, respectively.There were no significant differences in behavior during perfusion, function after transplantation, or histology of transplanted kidneys in the three groups.The similarity of the results using a film oxygenator with those previously obtained with a membrane oxygenator indicates that complex membrane oxygenators are not necessary for preservation in our system. Moreover, the similarity of the results with oxygen tensions from 9 mmHg to 676 mmHg shows that deliberate oxygenation is also unnecessary. 相似文献

Hearts from normal and alloxan diabetic rats were perfused in vitro with a bicarbonate-buffered medium containing glucose. Transport of glucose through the cell membrane was stimulated with insulin or by induction of anaerobiosis. The organs were rapidly fixed and examined by electron microscopy. Transport stimulation was not associated with any increase in the number of sarcolemmal invaginations or subsarcolemmal cytoplasmic vesicles. It was concluded that glucose transport and the effects of insulin or anoxia do not involve pinocytosis. The relationship of pinocytosis to glucose transport is discussed. The appearance of numerous lipid inclusions at the Z line level of the sarcomeres in the diabetic and anoxic myocardia is described. 相似文献
