Abstract— Polysomes were isolated from several different fractions of mouse brain tissue. After homogenization, the extract was centrifuged to yield a post-mitochondrial supernatant fraction and a pellet fraction. Sucrose gradient analysis of the material in the post-mitochondrial supernatant fraction indicated that 80 per cent of the ribosomes were present in polysomes and that little, if any, of the pellet fraction was present. Sucrose gradient analysis of the solution obtained after washing the pellet showed that very little polysomal material was present. The remaining pellet fraction was resuspended in a detergent mixture of deoxycholate-Tween 40. Sucrose gradient analysis of the resulting detergent-soluble solution indicated that large amounts of ribosomal material, in which 60–70 per cent of the ribosomes were associated in polysomes, were present.
In brain tissue from young animals, 20 per cent of the polysomes were found in the post-mitochondrial supernatant fraction whereas 80 per cent of the polysomes were released from the pellet fraction by detergent treatment. In contrast, in brain tissue from adult animals, 40 per cent of the polysomes were found in the post-mitochondrial supernatant fraction, whereas 60 per cent of the polysomes were released from the pellet fraction by detergent treatment. 相似文献

NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase was purified from hepatic microsomes of phenobarbital and hydrocortisone-treated rats by detergent solubilization and column chromatography. This membrane protein contains 31 mol per cent hydrophobic amino acid residues, 6 half-cystine residues, and a single tryptophan residue as determined by amino acid analysis after mineral or organic acid hydrolysis. The free mobility of cytochrome P-450 reductase in sodium dodecyl sulfate was identical to that of several soluble proteins used as standards (i.e. ovalbumin, bovin serum albumin, erythrocuprein, beta-galactosidase). Molecular weight estimates from sedimentation equilibrium studies in the presence of guanidine hydrochloride (76,500) are consistent with those determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate at various per cent gel concentrations (79,000 to 80,000). Computer analysis of circular dichroism spectra of cytochrome P-450 reductase in the far ultraviolet region indicated the presence of 34 per cent alpha helical and 16 per cent beta structure. The amount of random structure was calculated to be 50 per cent. 相似文献

Long acting, single injection caudal anesthesia with mepivacaine was studied in 1,208 obstetrical cases.A 1 per cent solution was used in 671 patients and compared with a 1.5 per cent concentration in 537. No remarkable differences were found between the two groups. The 1 per cent solution provided relief of labor discomfort for from 60 to 180 minutes with an average of 110 minutes. In contrast, the 1.5 per cent solution provided an average of 115 minutes with a range of 80 to 210 minutes.A total volume of 30 ml of anesthetic agent yielded anesthesia to a level of the tenth thoracic vertebra or higher in 91 per cent of patients.Significant alterations in blood pressure were uncommon. About 1 per cent of patients required a vasopressor because of a drop in systolic blood pressure below 80 mm of mercury. Another 8 per cent had a drop of over 20 points in systolic pressure but from high enough levels that they did not require a vasopressor.Toxic effects similar to those of lidocaine were found in slightly more than 1 per cent of cases.This anesthesia requires a higher incidence of operative intervention for delivery. 相似文献

Possible utilization of treated streptomycin fermentation broth modified with waste hydrochloric acid solution followed by lime neutralization was studied. Such a complex additive to concrete increased its strength by 36-41 per cent. With saving cement by 7 per cent the concrete strength increased by 22-29 per cent as compared to the control samples. Therefore, utilization of antibiotic industry waste in production of building material allowed not only to improve its quality but also to lower the environmental pollution. 相似文献

Colipase was isolated from porcine pancreas homogenate prepared in the presence of detergent (Triton X 100). After precipitation by ammonium sulfate and ethanol, the cofactor was purified by chromatography on SP-Sephadex in the presence of Triton X 100 and on DEAE-cellulose in the absence of detergent. Two molecular forms of porcine colipase were obtained. They represent 80 per cent (colipase A) and 20 per cent (colipase B), respectively, of the total colipase. Valine is the N-terminal residue of both proteins. Their aminoacid composition is similar to that found by Borgstrom for the two forms of porcine colipase. Determination of the sequence of the first sixteen residues at the N-terminal end of colipase A indicates that the cofactor undergoes no proteolytic degradation in this region of the molecule when extraction is carried out in the presence of detergent. The recovery of colipase is about 30 per cent. 相似文献

In a series of 240 cases of perforated peptic ulcer prior to 1952 there was a total mortality of 17 per cent. This included cases treated conservatively as a planned procedure or because of other morbid conditions and undiagnosed cases, all ending in death.In cases treated by simple suture, mortality was 2.6 per cent for patients under 50 years of age and 17 per cent for those over 50, the rate rising very steeply with each decade over 50.From 1953 through 1959 selective gastric resection was carried out, the operation being done in all cases of perforated gastric ulcers, of chronic duodenal ulcers and of perforations associated with hemorrhage.During this period 303 perforated ulcers were treated, with a mortality of 15.5 per cent. Patients with associated morbid conditions and those admitted moribund and died, or died undiagnosed were again included.In this series also the mortality increased steeply from age 50 onward.Gastric resection was carried out in 148 cases of perforated peptic ulcer with a mortality of 6 per cent. In 105 cases under 60 years of age there were no deaths but in those over 60 the mortality rate was 21.8 per cent. Results in the patients who had resection, as determined after three years of observation, compared favorably with the results in patients who were treated by suture.The mortality of perforated ulcers in females was higher than in males.Emergency gastric resection has a definite place in the treatment of perforated peptic ulcer. 相似文献

THE ACTION OF CALF BRAIN SIALIDASE ON GANGLIOSIDES, SIALOGLYCOPROTEINS AND SIALOGLYCOPEPTIDES 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
Abstract— In agreement with other investigators it has been shown that endogenous as well as added gangliosides are a substrate for brain sialidase. The release of sialic acid was enhanced in the presence of Triton X-100; this might be due to the action of the detergent on the ganglioside micelles. The sialic acid release from endogenous gangliosides was observed over 48 h and compared with the effect of the sialidase on the endogenous glycoproteins. Though the hydrolysis of sialic acid from gangliosides is much faster in the first hours, after 48 h 40 per cent of the total bound sialic was released from both substrates at pH 4.0 and 37°C.
Sialoglycopeptides obtained from brain glycoproteins are also metabolized by the sialidase. No effect of Triton X-100 on this substrate has been observed. From sialoglycopeptides, fractions can be obtained by DEAE-Sephadex A-50 column chromatography with a sialic acid content from 8 to 26 per cent. The fractions with a high sialic acid content were about equally active towards brain sialidase as gangliosides. The results agree with the similar turnover rate observed for the carbohydrate chains from gangliosides and glycoproteins, but are in contrast to the observations of other investigators who have stated that glycoproteins are a poor substrate for brain sialidase. In our experiments bovine and ovine submaxillary mucins and sialyl-lactoses showed only slight activity compared to gangliosides and selected brain sialoglycopeptides. 相似文献

The records of 2,377 patients with Laennec''s cirrhosis were reviewed for the period 1947-1957. The chief presenting symptom was ascites in 46 per cent, bleeding in 23 per cent, coma in 18 per cent, jaundice in 9 per cent, and both jaundice and ascites in 4 per cent. Nearly half of the patients died during the period under study—one-third from hepatic failure, one-third from gastrointestinal bleeding, and one-third from other causes, most of which were related to alcoholism.Massive gastrointestinal bleeding occurred in 21 per cent of the patients at some time in their clinical course, and in the 10 per cent of these in whom ulcer was demonstrated, one-fifth died as a result of the hemorrhage. Of those presumed to be bleeding from esophageal varices, 64 per cent died at the first hemorrhage and 10 per cent at subsequent hemorrhages; 85 per cent of all those who bled from varices were dead at the end of one year, and 91 per cent were dead at the end of three years.The survival curve of a group of patients who bled once and were good operative risks but had received no operative treatment was compared to the survival curve for entire group who survived the first hemorrhage. The three-year survival in the good risk group was 47 per cent; for the group as a whole it was 30 per cent. The difference in mortality rate was primarily due to an increased number of deaths from hepatic failure in the combined group, whereas 60 per cent of the good risk group died of recurrent gastrointestinal hemorrhage.As 86 per cent of those who were to die of gastrointestinal bleeding did so at the first hemorrhage, it was concluded that any decided improvement in the salvage rate achievable by operation must come from some means of diagnostic forecast of the likelihood of bleeding, with resort to prophylactic operation in such cases. 相似文献

In the presence of iodine at pH 5.0–6.0 a solution of pepsin absorbs iodine and the specific proteolytic activity of the solution decreases. The activity is less than 1 per cent of the original activity when the number of iodine atoms per mol of pepsin is 35–40. If the pH is 4.5 or less, iodine reacts very slowly and there is a correspondingly slower loss in activity. Glycyl tyrosine reacts with iodine in a manner similar to pepsin. Experiments were performed to determine the extent to which oxidation of pepsin by iodine occurs during iodination, and if such oxidation were responsible for the loss in enzymatic activity. Although the results were not absolutely decisive, there seems to be no appreciable oxidation taking place during iodination and no relationship between the slight oxidation and loss in peptic activity. From a dialyzed preparation of completely iodinated pepsin which was inactive and contained 13.4 per cent bound iodine, 82 per cent of the iodine was obtained in a solution which analyzed as a solution of diiodo-tyrosine. Because of the presence of a material which contained no iodine and prevented quantitative crystallization, only 53 per cent of the iodine containing substance could be crystallized. This 53 per cent was, however, identified as diiodo-tyrosine. The part of the titration curve which in pepsin and most proteins represents the phenolic group of tyrosine was, in the curve for iodinated pepsin, shifted toward the acid region as expected. From these results, it appears that the loss in proteolytic activity of pepsin, when treated with iodine under the specified conditions, is due to the reaction of the iodine with the tyrosine in pepsin. 相似文献

Of 560 prostatectomies in an 11-year period on patients with benign or malignant disease of the prostate gland, almost 98 per cent were done transurethrally.Although many of the patients were considered to be in poor condition preoperatively, results achieved by the transurethral operation were excellent or good in 91 per cent of those who had benign disease of the prostate and in 84 per cent of those with malignant invasion. The rate of deaths attributable to the operation was 3.1 per cent in the group of patients with benign disease, 5.3 per cent in patients who had cancer.Complications, such as urinary incontinence, persistent pyuria, epididymitis, strictures of the urethra and of the meatus, and contracture of the neck of the bladder, arose in a surprising number of cases. 相似文献

Biliary lipid secretion in the rat during infusion of increasing doses of unconjugated bile acids 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The aim of the present study was to examine the secretion of biliary components in rats during infusion of increasing doses of either deoxycholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid or cholic acid and to test the hypothesis that biliary phospholipids may regulate the hepatic bile acid secretory capacity. Analysis of bile samples, collected every 10 min throughout the infusion period showed that there was an elevation of bile acid, phospholipid, cholesterol and alkaline-phosphodiesterase secretion, with all the bile acids, peaking and then gradually declining. Their secretory rates maximum differed and were inversely related to their detergent strength. However, the secretory rates maximum and total output of phospholipids and cholesterol were similar for all bile acids infused. The per cent contribution of phosphatidylcholine to total bile acid-dependent phospholipid secretion was reduced from 84% (in the pre-infusion period) to 59, 46 and 13% at the end of the cholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid and deoxycholic acid infusions, respectively. This decrease in the per cent contribution of phosphatidylcholine was associated with an increase in the contribution of both sphingomyelin and phosphatidylethanolamine. The biliary phospholipid fatty acid pattern corroborated these changes in the phospholipid classes. Since sphingomyelin and phosphatidylethanolamine are major phospholipids in bile canalicular and other hepatocellular membranes, the marked increase in their secretion in bile during the infusion of high doses of bile acids may indicate solubilization of membrane phospholipids, resulting in membrane structural changes responsible for the reduced excretory function of the liver. 相似文献

Summary A technique was developed for extracting and analyzing the free amino acid fraction of soil. Ethanol was used as an extracting agent. Ethanolextraction curves showed 20 per cent ethanol was the optimum percentage for extraction. Extraction-time curves indicated 18 to 20 hours of extraction with 20 per cent ethanol produced satisfactory results.The free amino acid fraction of soil was characterized and the limitations of the technique were determined. The naturally occurring amino acids extracted with 20 per cent ethanol were limited to acidic and neutral amino acids; basic amino acids were not extracted in sufficient quantities to permit detection. Based on the percent recovery of amino acids incorporated into soil and extracted with 20 per cent ethanol 90 to 95 per cent of the acidic, 80 to 85 per cent of the neutral and 1 to 5 per cent of the basic amino acids used were recovered with the technique. 相似文献

Seven per cent of a sample group of civil service employees were found to have diagnosable heart disease. The diagnosis was made on the basis of a complete physical examination and history taken by a specialist in internal medicine and/or heart disease. In addition a questionnaire form related to symptoms of heart disease was filled out by the patient, and various laboratory tests were made. As a technique in cardiac case-finding, the electrocardiogram was the best single device. Of all the cases of heart disease in this survey 65 per cent were detected from tracings obtained by using all 12 leads, and 57 per cent if only the three standard limb leads were taken; but of the presumably normal persons, 13 per cent would be erroneously suspected of possible heart disease by this technique. Heart disease was detected in 50 per cent of the diagnosed cases on the basis of answers to three of the questions in the questionnaire. Eighteen per cent of normal persons would also have been suspected of having heart disease by this case-finding device. Although the survey reported did not develop a simple cardiac case-finding technique, the data presented indicated that a questionnaire history-form, if judiciously used and evaluated, may be of value to physicians who examine large numbers of patients who are unwilling to submit to a complete cardiac evaluation. 相似文献

The efficacy of cefepime in the treatment of 46 patients operated for general peritonitis of various genesis and severity (APACHE II not greater than 35) was studied. Cefepime was used in a dose of 2 g administered every 12 hours as slow intravenous infusions in 0.9 per cent sodium chloride solution in combination with metronidazole administered intravenously in a dose of 7.5 mg/kg body weight. The treatment course was 4 to 15 days. 45 patients were given diflucan for the prophylaxis of fungal superinfection, 3 patients were given aminoglycoside antibiotics (netilmicin or amikacin) and 2 patients were given vancomycin per os. The favourable clinical effect of the cefepime therapy was stated in 38 patients (82.6 per cent) including 4 out of 10 patients with initial APACHE II > 15. 101 isolates of aerobic gram-negative and gram-positive microbes from 38 patients treated with cefepime in combination with metronidazole were tested to estimate the bacteriological efficacy of the therapy and it was shown that only 5.9 per cent of them was resistant. The pathogen eradication was stated in 84.2 per cent of the patients. 相似文献

A flavored solution containing 80 mg. of theophylline and 3 cc. of ethyl alcohol per 15 cc. was given orally to 31 patients with acute asthma to terminate the attack. Thirty patients with moderate to severe chronic asthma were alternated for three or four weeks on daily multiple doses of either the theophylline solution or a placebo.In the acute cases three-second Vital Capacity increased by 33.8 per cent and Maximal Breathing Capacity by 30.2 per cent in one hour after taking 60 cc. to 75 cc. of the theophylline solution. When placebos were given, both measures of lung function declined during the first half hour.Seventy-one and a half per cent of patients with acute cases felt moderate to complete relief of symptoms. In persons with chronic asthma the regular use of the theophylline solution did not change the frequency of asthma in most cases, but it decreased the severity in 59 per cent of cases. The values for three-second Vital Capacity and Maximal Breathing Capacity rose only a little.Gastric irritation was noted in one-third of the chronic cases and one-fourth of the acute cases. This could be reduced by appropriate measures. 相似文献

1. The experiments on frog tadpoles show that with 0.15, 0.37, and 0.55 per cent ether solutions there is a decrease in CO2 output. The effect is reversible. With these concentrations the breathing movements and body movements remained normal during the experiment. In 3.65 and 7.3 per cent ether there is a decrease of respiration followed by an increase which in turn is followed by a decrease. The increase may reach about three times the normal rate. The increase in the CO2 output is accompanied by the peeling of the skin. The effect is irreversible. 2. Experiments on an aquatic insect, Dineutes assimilis Aube, show that in 7.3 per cent ether there is a decrease followed by an increase which in turn is followed by a decrease. There is no apparent disintegration of structures in the organism accompanying the increase. The effect is irreversible. 3. The experiments on frog eggs with 7.3 per cent ether show a result similar to that found in aquatic insects. 4. Experiments on Fundulus embryos show that with 0.73 per cent ether there is a reversible decrease in the rate of CO2 production. In 3.65 per cent ether there is a temporary decrease followed by an increase, after which the rate begins to fall off. In 7.3 per cent ether there is an immediate increase amounting to 307 per cent which is followed by a decrease. The increase in the 3.65 and 7.3 per cent ether is accompanied by irreversible changes leading to death. The decrease found in 0.73 per cent ether is not sufficient to cause narcosis, as is shown by experiments on which the same decrease is produced by lowering the temperature. 5. These experiments show that narcosis is not due to asphyxia. The action of anesthetics is due to some other cause than the effect on respiration. There is a difference between the animals studied and the plants described in this series of articles, since in animals the increase in the CO2 output is accompanied by irreversible changes leading to death, while this is not necessarily the case in plants. The reversible (narcotic) action of ether on the animals studied was accompanied by a decrease in the carbon dioxide output; in plants this is not ordinarily the case. These facts are of considerable interest, but their interpretation must be left to future investigation. 相似文献

Four hundred and forty pediatric patients at the age of 7 days to 15 years with various infections admitted to the Hospital within a month were examined. The biological material was inoculated to blood agar on the first days of the patient admittance to the Hospital and after the growth the organisms were isolated and identified. Antibiotic susceptibility of the isolates was assayed with the disk diffusion method. 479 strains in all were tested. The most frequent cases requiring hospitalization and antibiotic therapy were those of respiratory tract infections (54.09 per cent), urinary tract infections (26.36 per cent), cutaneous and subcutaneous fat diseases, gastrointestinal diseases and others (about 25 per cent of the cases in all). The main pathogens were Streptococcus viridans, S.aureus and S.epidermidis, as well as Enterobacteriaceae (chiefly E.coli) whose frequencies were practically equal (in 25-35 per cent of the cases). The Pneumococcus isolates amounted to 6.3 per cent. Nonfermenting bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter) and some representatives of Enterobacteriaceae (Citrobacter, Serratia, Morganella) were isolated from 7 per cent of the patients. The frequency of Klebsiella and Enterobacter was about 11 per cent. The main pathogens were tested for their susceptibility to amoxycillin/clavulanic acid, ampicillin, oxacillin and gentamicin. The least active antibiotic was ampicillin. 88.8 per cent of the E.coli isolates and 100 per cent of the Klebsiella, P.mirabilis, Morganella, Citrobacter, Enterobacter and Serratia isolates were resistant to it. 53.2 per cent of the Streptococcus isolates including 64.5 per cent of the Pneumococcus isolates were as well resistant to ampicillin. 59.5 per cent of the Streptococcus isolates (mainly S.viridans and Enterococcus) was susceptible to oxacillin, 22.2 per cent of them being moderately susceptible. 62.5 per cent of the Pneumococcus isolates and 78.1 per cent of the Staphylococcus isolates were also susceptible to oxacillin. The highest susceptibility of the isolates was that to amoxycillin/clavulanic acid, i.e. 90.1 per cent of the strains, 79.9 per cent of them being highly susceptible. All the isolates of Citrobacter, Serratia and Morganella and some isolates of P.aeruginosa, Acinetobacter, Enterobacter, Klebsiella and E.coli were resistant to amoxycillin/clavulanic acid. As for the latter 5 organisms their susceptibility to amoxycillin/clavulanic acid was comparable with that to gentamicin. The susceptibility of the Streptococcus and Staphylococcus isolates to amoxycillin/clavulanic acid was significantly much higher than that to oxacillin, gentamicin and ampicillin: 93 per cent of the Streptococcus isolates (62.7 per cent of the Pneumococcus isolates) and 90.7 per cent of the Staphylococcus isolates. 相似文献

Salvin is a preparation of Salvia officinalis L. Its effect on synthesis of macromolecules in cells of Staphylococcus aureus 209P was studied with labeled precursors in a system used for investigation of peptidoglycan synthesis. At a concentration of 10 micrograms/ml salvin inhibited incorporation of 14C-lysine into the cell wall polymer and protein fraction by 42.9 and 8.9 per cent respectively and stimulated incorporation of 3H-thymidine and 3H-uridine into the nucleic acid fraction. In the presence of salvin in a quantity of 120 micrograms/ml there was observed inhibition of 3H-uridine incorporation into the nucleic acid fraction by 53.3 per cent and 14C-lysine into the protein fraction by 74.5 per cent along with inhibition of peptidoglycan synthesis by 95.5 per cent. The results conformed to the findings of electron microscopic investigation of the solving effect on ultrastructure of S. aureus 209P. They confirmed the previous assumption that salvin had the primary effect on the processes directly associated with synthesis of the cell wall polymer. 相似文献
