To examine the gastric emptying characteristics of four drinks varying in carbohydrate composition and concentration, five men ingested 600 ml of one of the different drinks on four separate occasions. All drinks contained Na+ 71 mmol.l-1, Cl- 60 mmol.l-1, Mg+2 5 mmol.l-1 and citrate 7 mmol.l-1; the carbohydrate component was either 3% glucose, 3% glucose-polymer (GP), 5% GP or 10% GP. With 99mTc-diethylene-triaminepenta-acetic acid (DTPA) as a marker, a scintillation camera and computer were used to measure the rate of gastric emptying. The half-emptying times (T 1/2) were inversely related to the glucose content of the solutions. The T 1/2 for 3% PG was 22.4 +/- 4.4 min (mean +/- SE) and for 10% GP 50 +/- 3.3 min (p less than 0.005). There was no significant difference in T 1/2 between the 3% glucose and 3% GP solutions. The increments in blood glucose (highest blood levels from 7.4 +/- 0.3 mmol.l-1 to 8.9 +/- 0.8 mmol.l-1), serum insulin (from 28 +/- 6 mU.l-1 to 77 +/- 13 mU.l-1) and C-peptide (from 3.6 +/- 0.4 micrograms.l-1 to 5.8 +/- 0.9 micrograms.l-1) were related to the amount of carbohydrate ingested. In all cases the serum insulin levels were high enough to inhibit the liberation of free fatty acids from the adipose tissue. It is concluded that the amount of carbohydrate in glucosyl units in the solution is a major determinant of gastric emptying.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Large-scale production of recombinant hepatitis B surface antigen from Pichia pastoris 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The ability of the Pichia pastoris-based technology for large-scale production of recombinant hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) and both reproducibly purify HBsAg and remove most of the relevant contaminants was ascertained by evaluating ten industrial production batches, five in 1993 and five in 1998. At an early stage, the clarification of mechanically disrupted yeast cells by acid precipitation renders HBsAg with a purity as low as 3.8 +/- 0.6%. However, by adsorption/desorption from diatomaceous earth matrix, the purity of HBsAg rapidly increases to 18.8 +/- 5%, which is suitable for chromatographic processing. This step also eliminates non-particulated forms of HBsAg, significantly lowers the amount of carbohydrates and lipids, and concentrates the HBsAg 4.8-fold. Finally, a sequential purification procedure that includes large-scale immunoaffinity, ion-exchange, and size-exclusion chromatographies further purifies the preparation, resulting in a product (HBsAg at a concentration of 1.3 +/- 0.2 g l-1) with a purity of 95% or more. Furthermore, each of the other contaminants measured reaches the following low levels per 20 micrograms HBsAg: host deoxyribonucleic acid (< 10 pg), carbohydrates (1.2 +/- 0.02 micrograms), lipids (14 +/- 0.28 micrograms), immunopurification-released immunoglobulin G (less than 100 ppm), and endotoxins (106.7 +/- 19.3 pg). These values are below those specified for recombinant DNA hepatitis B vaccines according to World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines. 相似文献

Cyproheptadine (CPH)--a putative serotonin antagonist--is known to inhibit growth hormone (GH) response to various pharmacological stimuli, as well as during sleep. To elucidate the possible site at which this drug takes effect, we examined plasma GH and somatostatin response to i.v. GHRH1-44 (1 microgram/kg body wt.) before and after CPH treatment in 10 healthy volunteers. The oral administration of CPH (8-12 mg daily for 5 days; total dose 56 mg) significantly curbed GH response to GHRH as expressed in peak plasma GH values (32.0 +/- 6.1 micrograms/l vs. 12.6 +/- 3.2 micrograms/l; P less than 0.01) and in integrated GH response area (2368 +/- 517 micrograms x l-1 x 2 h vs. 744 +/- 172 micrograms x l-1 x 2 h; P less than 0.01). Plasma somatostatin levels did not change in response to GHRH. 相似文献

The secretory profiles of LH and FSH were investigated before and during the administration of bromocriptine in six beagle bitches. Plasma samples were obtained via jugular venepuncture at 10 min intervals for 6 h every 2 weeks until the next ovulation. Bromocriptine treatment was started 100 days after ovulation. Both before and after bromocriptine treatment, LH and FSH pulses occurred together. The mean duration of the FSH pulse (120 min) was significantly longer than that of the LH pulse (80 min). The interoestrous interval in the bitches treated with bromocriptine was significantly shorter than that of the preceding cycle (160 +/- 3 versus 206 +/- 24 days). The mean basal plasma FSH concentration (7.4 +/- 0.6 versus 6.1 +/- 0.7 iu l-1) and the mean area under the curve for FSH (46.6 +/- 4.7 versus 40.4 +/- 4.4 iu l-1 in 6 h) increased significantly after the start of the bromocriptine treatment. In contrast, the differences in mean basal plasma LH concentration (2.1 +/- 0.2 versus 2.0 +/- 0.2 micrograms l-1) and the mean area under the curve for LH (19.0 +/- 3.1 versus 19.5 +/- 2.5 micrograms l-1 in 6 h) between the day before and 14 days after the start of the bromocriptine treatment were not significant. Bromocriptine administration also lowered the mean amplitude of the FSH pulse and shortened the mean duration of the FSH pulse, without influencing the LH pulse. In addition to demonstrating the concurrent pulsatile secretion of LH and FSH, the results of the present study demonstrate that the bromocriptine-induced shortening of the interoestrous interval in the bitch is associated with an increase in plasma FSH concentration without a concomitant increase in plasma LH concentration. This finding indicates that treatment with the dopamine agonist bromocriptine increase plasma FSH to a concentration that results in the enhancement of follicle development. 相似文献

This study examines the relationships between vascular changes and endocrine responses to prolonged exercise in the heat, associated with dehydration and rehydration by fluids of different osmolarity. Five subjects were exposed, in a 34 degrees C environment for 4 h of intermittent exercise on a cycle ergometer at 85 +/- 12 Watts (SD). Fluid regulatory hormones and cortisol were analysed in 3 experimental sessions: one without any fluid supplement (NO FLUID), and two with progressive rehydration, either by spring water (WATER) or isotonic solution (ISO), given after 70 min of exercise. Results were expressed in terms of differences between the mean values observed at the end of the exercise and the first hour values taken as references. Dehydration (NO FLUID) elicited a 4.0 +/- 0.8% (SE) decrease in plasma volume (PV) and an increase in osmolarity (8.4 +/- 3.1 mosmol X l-1). Concomitantly, plasma aldosterone (PA), renin activity (PRA), arginin vasopressin (AVP) and cortisol (PC) levels increased greatly in response to exercise in the heat (PA: 37.2 +/- 10.8 ng. 100 ml-1; PRA: 13.4 +/- 2.5 ng X ml-1 X h-1; AVP: 3.8 +/- 1.3 pg X ml-1; PC: 12.2 +/- 2.7 micrograms X 100 ml-1). Rehydration with water led to decreased osmolarity (-8.2 +/- 2.1 mosmol X l-1) with no significant changes in PV. With ISO, PV increased by 6.0 +/- 1.3% and the decrease in osmolarity was-5.8 +/- 1.8 mosmol X l-1. With both modes of rehydration, the increases in PRA, AVP and cortisol were blunted; only ISO prevented the rise in PA.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Time to exhaustion at 87-91% of peak VO2 was measured in 5 untrained men (age: 31 +/- 8 years, body mass: 74.20 +/- 16.50 kg, body surface area: 1.90 +/- 0.24 m2, peak VO2: 2.87 +/- 0.40 l min-1, plasma volume: 3.21 +/- 0.88 l; means +/-SD) after consuming nothing (N) or two fluid formulations (10 ml kg-1, 743 +/- 161 ml): Performance 1 (P1), a multi-ionic carbohydrate drink, containing 55 mEq l-1 Na+, 4.16 g l-1 citrate, 20.49 g l-1 glucose, and 365 mOsm kg-1 H2O, and AstroAde (AA), a sodium chloride-sodium citrate hyperhydration drink, containing 164 mEq l-1 Na+, 8.54 g l-1 citrate, <5 mg l-1 glucose, and 253 mOsm kg-1 H2O. Mean (+/-SE) endurance for N, P1 and AA was 24.68 +/- 1.50, 24.55 +/- 1.09, and 30.50 +/- 3.44 min respectively. Percent changes in plasma volume (PV) from -105 min of rest to zero min before exercise were -1.5 +/- 3.2% (N), 0.2 +/- 2.2% (P1), and 4.8 +/- 3.0% (AA; P < 0.05). The attenuated endurance for N and P1 could not be attributed to differences in exercise metabolism (VE, RE, VO2) from the carbohydrate or citrate, terminal heart rate, levels of perceived exertion, forehead or thigh skin blood flow velocity, changes or absolute termination levels of rectal temperature. Thus, the higher level of resting PV for AA just before exercise, as well as greater acid buffering and possible increased energy substrate from citrate, may have contributed to the greater endurance. 相似文献

Kinetic aspects of ethanol metabolism were studied in sheep after intravenous or intraruminal infusion of ethanol. Vmax and Km in fed animals were respectively 295 +/- 10 mg.h-1.l-1 (l = litre of body water) and 32.1 +/- 2.4 mg.l-1. Elimination half-life was 1.47 +/- 0.26 h. The corresponding values in the fasted animal were not significantly different. During venous infusion an increase in plasma acetate, inversely correlated to plasma ethanol, was observed. No modification in glycemia occurred. Intraruminal infusion of ethanol increased the concentration of all SCFA in the rumen juice, the largest part of this modification being relative to acetate. Repetition of the infusion over a period of 11 consecutive days increased the number of SCFA in the rumen, indicating microflora adaptation to ethanol utilization. Taking into account the range of ethanol concentrations found in silage (10-50 g.kg-1 BW) we can consider that ethanol is readily metabolized simultaneously by the rumen microflora and the enzymatic system of the host. With a corresponding daily intake of ethanol (0.2-1 g.kg-1 BW) both systems are not saturated and plasma ethanol level always remains below 0.25 g.l-1. 相似文献

The responses to brief maximal exercise of 10 male subjects have been studied. During 30 s of exercise on a non-motorized treadmill, the mean power output (mean +/- SD) was 424.8 +/- 41.9 W, peak power 653.3 +/- 103.0 W and the distance covered was 167.3 +/- 9.7 m. In response to the exercise blood lactate concentrations increased from 0.60 +/- 0.26 to 13.46 +/- 1.71 mmol.l-1 (p less than 0.001) and blood glucose concentrations from 4.25 +/- 0.45 to 5.59 +/- 0.67 mmol.l-1 (p less than 0.001). The severe nature of the exercise is indicated by the fall in blood pH from 7.38 +/- 0.02 to 7.16 +/- 0.07 (p less than 0.001) and the estimated decrease in plasma volume of 11.5 +/- 3.4% (p less than 0.001). The plasma catecholamine concentrations increased from 2.2 +/- 0.6 to 13.4 +/- 6.4 nmol.l-1 (p less than 0.001) and 0.2 +/- 0.2 to 1.4 +/- 0.6 nmol.l-1 (p less than 0.001) for noradrenaline (NA) and adrenaline (AD) respectively. The plasma concentration of the opioid beta-endorphin increased in response to the exercise from less than 5.0 to 10.2 +/- 3.9 p mol.l-1. The post-exercise AD concentrations correlated with those for lactate as well as with changes in pH and the decrease in plasma volume. Post-exercise beta-endorphin levels correlated with the peak speed attained during the sprint and the subjects peak power to weight ratio. These results suggest that the increases in plasma adrenaline are related to those factors that reflect the stress of the exercise and the contribution of anaerobic metabolism.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The effect of 60 min of exercise at two intensities (50 and 60% VO2max) and temperatures (0 and 22 degrees C) on changes (delta) in plasma lipids [triglycerides (TG), glycerol (GLY), total cholesterol (TC), and HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C)] was examined. Subjects were 10 men aged 27 +/- 7 years (VO2max = 3.81 +/- 0.45 1 min, % fat = 12.2% +/- 7.1%). VO2 and respiratory exchange ratio results indicated that total energy and fat energy use were similar at the two temperatures. Changes in plasma volume (%delta PV) were different (P less than 0.05) at the two temperatures (22 degrees C: -2.3% vs 0 degrees C: 1.1%). Combining the data at each temperature revealed that the increases in concentrations were greater (P less than 0.05) at 22 degrees C (delta TG = 0.22, delta GLY = 0.20, delta TC = 0.14, delta HDL-C = 0.05 mmol l-1) vs 0 degrees C (delta TG = 0.10, delta GLY = 0.12, delta TC = 0.05, delta HDL-C = 0.02 mmol l-1). Combining the data for each intensity revealed that the increases in concentration were greater (P less than 0.05) at 60% VO2max for delta TG and delta HDL-C. The 60% VO2max/22 degrees C bout produced greater changes (P less than 0.05) than all other bouts for delta TC and delta HDL-C (0.21 and 0.08 mmol l-1, respectively). Only delta TG and delta GLY were greater at 22 degrees C when adjusted for %delta PV. These metabolic and plasma lipid results indicate that cold exposure does not act synergistically with exercise to further stimulate fat metabolism. 相似文献

We studied the sympathetic neural response on airways to hypotensive stimuli in 19 swine in vivo. The effects of pharmacologically induced hypotension with nitroprusside (NTP) and hypotension elicited by intravenous compound 48/80 (48/80), a mast cell degranulating agent, were compared after equivalent reductions in mean arterial blood pressure (MAP). Reduction of the MAP to 60% of base line with NTP in six swine caused an increase in plasma epinephrine (E) from 60 +/- 28 to 705 +/- 276 pg/ml (P = 0.032) and plasma norepinephrine (NE) from 270 +/- 46 to 796 +/- 131 pg/ml (P = 0.032). Comparable reduction in MAP elicited with 48/80 in six other swine caused a substantially greater increase in both plasma E (9,581 +/- 4,147 pg/ml; P = 0.012 vs. NTP group) and plasma NE (2,239 +/- 637 pg/ml; P = 0.041 vs. NTP group). Catecholamine secretion attenuated mediator-induced changes in lung resistance (RL). In animals receiving 48/80, RL increased from 2.97 +/- 0.31 to 7.44 +/- 0.56 cmH2O.l-1.s. In animals having ganglionic blockade with 7.5 mg/kg iv hexamethonium and beta-adrenergic blockade with propranolol (4.0 mg/kg iv followed by 40 micrograms/kg-1.min-1), comparable doses of 48/80 caused an increase in RL to 18.6 +/- 4.55 cmH2O.l-1.s (P less than 0.04 vs. swine receiving neither hexamethonium nor propranolol).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

A radioimmunoassay system for 17 alpha-hydroxy-4-androstene-3-one (epitestosterone) was developed and evaluated using rabbit antisera against 17 alpha-hydroxy-4-androstene-3-one-3-(O-carboxymethyl)-oxime-bovine serum albumin conjugate, and radioiodinated homologous histaminyl derivative of epitestosterone as a tracer. Two antisera with different specificity were used for radioimmunological determination of epitestosterone in hydrolyzed urine and plasma, respectively. Apparent intrinsic association constants and derived thermodynamic variables for ligand-antibody interaction were measured under various conditions in order to set up an optimal assay protocol. The mean plasma epitestosterone levels for healthy subjects were 0.44 +/- 0.15 nmol.l-1 (means +/- SD) in males and 0.092 +/- 0.056 nmol.l-1 in females. The corresponding concentrations in urine were 320 +/- 70 nmol.l-1 (males) and 273 +/- 100 nmol.l-1 (females). 相似文献

The effects of iron deficiency and endurance training on muscle myoglobin (Mb), body weights, and blood lactic acid concentration were studied in rats. Fifty animals were divided into four groups: anemic trained (AT), normal trained (NT), anemic sedentary (AS), and normal sedentary (NS). Following 5 weeks of dietary control, the mean hemoglobin values for the AT and AS rats were 0.013 +/- 0.002 mmol X l-1 (8.7 +/- 1.4 g X dl-1) and 0.014 +/- 0.003 mmol X l-1 (9.2 +/- 1.7 g X dl-1) respectively, and did not significantly change throughout the study. AT and NT rats were run on a motor driven treadmill 4 days/week for 6 weeks up to a pre-established time of 90 min. Following the training, body weights of the AT (157 +/- 13 g) and NT (153 +/- 13 g) rats were lower than their respective sedentary groups AS (172 +/- 9 g) and NS (176 +/- 15 g). Resting blood lactic acid concentration following training was lower in both trained groups, AT (3.3 +/- 2.0 mM) and NT (2.3 +/- 1.9 mM) compared to AS (8.2 +/- 2.6 mM) and NS (3.8 +/- 1.6 mM). Training increased Mb concentration in hearts of both the anemic and normal trained groups (AT, 0.66 +/- 0.13 mg X g-1; NT, 0.95 +/- 0.08 mg X g-1) compared to the sedentary groups (AS, 0.44 +/- 0.08 mg X g-1; NS, 0.70 +/- 0.13 mg X g-1). Only the AT rats showed an increase in skeletal muscle Mb. This study provides evidence that myoglobin may limit aerobic metabolism. 相似文献

Eight athletes (T), studied the third morning after the last exercise session, and seven sedentary males (C) (maximal O2 consumption 65 +/- 4 vs. 49 +/- 4 (SE) ml X kg-1 X min-1, for T and C men, respectively) had insulin infused until plasma glucose, at an insulin level of 1,600 pmol X l-1, was 1.9 mmol X l-1. Glucose turnover was determined by primed constant rate infusion of 3-[3H]glucose. Basal C-peptide (0.46 +/- 0.04 vs. 0.73 +/- 0.06 pmol X ml-1) and glucagon (4 +/- 0.4 vs. 10 +/- 2 pmol X l-1) were lower (P less than 0.05) and epinephrine higher (0.30 +/- 0.06 vs. 0.09 +/- 0.03 nmol X l-1) in T than in C subjects. During and after insulin infusion production, disappearance and clearance of glucose changed identically in T and C subjects. However, in spite of identical plasma glucose concentrations, epinephrine (7.88 +/- 0.99 vs. 3.97 +/- 0.40 nmol X l-1), growth hormone (97 +/- 17 vs. 64 +/- 6 mU X l-1), and pancreatic polypeptide (361 +/- 84 vs. 180 +/- 29 pmol X l-1) reached higher levels (P less than 0.05) and glucagon (28 +/- 3 vs. 47 +/- 10 pmol X l-1) lower levels in T than in C subjects. Blood pressures changed earlier in athletes during insulin infusion, and early recovery of heart rate, free fatty acid, and glycerol was faster. Responses of norepinephrine, cortisol, C-peptide, and lactate were similar in the two groups. Training radically changes hormonal responses but not glucose kinetics in insulin hypoglycemia. 相似文献

Isolated rat lungs, pretreated with 100 microM pargyline and 100 microM U-0521 (3',4'-dihydroxy-2-methylpropriophenone) to block metabolism of norepinephrine (NE), were perfused with 0.3 microM 3H-labeled l-norepinephrine (1-[3H]-NE) for 30 min. Efflux samples were then collected for 30 min during washout of the tissue with amine-free Krebs solution. Compartmental analysis (nonlinear least-squares regression) of the efflux of tissue l-[3H]NE content vs. time indicates that NE is accumulated in a large slowly equilibrating compartment (t 1/2 = 58.15 +/- 6.84 min) in addition to distribution in the vascular (blue dextran tracer) and extracellular ([3H]sorbitol tracer) fluid compartments of the lung. Pretreatment of the lungs with 100 microM cocaine hydrochloride reduces the total l-[3H]NE space from 7.44 +/- 1.91 to 2.48 +/- 0.23 ml/g (P less than 0.05) by selectively decreasing the size of the slow NE compartment from 6.99 +/- 1.97 to 1.67 +/- 0.14 ml/g (P less than 0.05). The large size, cocaine sensitivity, and long efflux half time of this compartment suggest that neuronal uptake contributes to the pulmonary vascular inactivation of l-[3H]NE. 相似文献

Non-enzymatic glycation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) has been suggested to be responsible for the increase in susceptibility to atherogenesis of diabetic individuals. Although the association of lipid glycation with this process has been investigated, the effect of specific lipid glycation products on LDL metabolism has not been addressed. This study reports that glucosylated phosphatidylethanolamine (Glc-PtdEtn), the major LDL lipid glycation product, promotes LDL uptake and cholesteryl ester (CE) and triacylglycerol (TG) accumulation by THP-1 macrophages. Incubation of THP-1 macrophages at a concentration of 100 micrograms/ml protein LDL specifically enriched (10 nmol/mg LDL protein) with synthetically prepared Glc-PtdEtn resulted in a significant increase in CE and TG accumulation when compared with LDL enriched in non-glucosylated PtdEtn. After a 24-h incubation with LDL containing Glc-PtdEtn, the macrophages contained 2-fold higher CE (10.11 +/- 1.54 micrograms/mg cell protein) and TG (285.32 +/- 4.38 micrograms/mg cell protein) compared with LDL specifically enriched in non-glucosylated PtdEtn (CE, 3.97 +/- 0.95, p < 0.01 and TG, 185.57 +/- 3.58 micrograms/mg cell protein, p < 0.01). The corresponding values obtained with LDL containing glycated protein and lipid were similar to those of LDL containing Glc-PtdEtn (CE, 11.9 +/- 1.35 and TG, 280.78 +/- 3.98 micrograms/mg cell protein). The accumulation of both neutral lipids was further significantly increased by incubating the macrophages with Glc-PtdEtn LDL exposed to copper oxidation. By utilizing the fluorescent probe, 1,1'-dioctadecyl-3,3,3', 3'-tetramethylindocarbocyanine perchlorate (DiI), a 1.6-fold increase was seen in Glc-PtdEtn + LDL uptake when compared with control LDL. Competition studies revealed that acetylated LDL is not a good competitor for DiI Glc-PtdEtn LDL (5-6% inhibition), whereas glycated LDL gave an 80% inhibition, and LDL + Glc-PtdEtn gave 93% inhibition of uptake by macrophages. These results indicate that glucosylation of PtdEtn in LDL accounts for the entire effect of LDL glycation on macrophage uptake and CE and TG accumulation and, therefore, the increased atherogenic potential of LDL in hyperglycemia. 相似文献

Ontogeny of the liver nuclear T3-receptor during the last days of incubation and posthatch in the chick embryo. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The characteristics of the nuclear T3 receptor in the liver of the chick embryo were studied from incubation day 18 until day 1 posthatching. Treatment of the nuclei with 3 mol.l-1 MgCl2, which removed the endogenously bound hormone, was used in order to determine the total amount of receptors. The affinity constant Ka decreased between incubation day 18 (0.996 +/- 0.276.10(9) M-1) and day 19 (0.247 +/- 0.072.10(9) M-1), remained the same thereafter until hatching and increased again on day 1 posthatching (1.846 +/- 0.928.10(9) M-1). The total amount of receptors tended to increase from incubation day 18 to day 20 non-pipping (np) (from 4.40 to 11.55 fmol/micrograms DNA) and decreased thereafter to 2.38 fmol/micrograms DNA on day 1 posthatching. The amount of free binding sites reached a maximum on day 19 (6.91 fmol/micrograms DNA) and then decreased drastically until posthatching (0.19 fmol/micrograms DNA). The maximal specific binding was found on day 20 (np), just prior to penetration of the air chamber. During the time at which the level of T3 remains high in the plasma, a reduction in the amount of receptor was observed, which may be the consequence of a down-regulation by T3 itself. 相似文献

The responses of nine men and nine women to brief repetitive maximal exercise have been studied. The exercise involved a 6-s sprint on a non-motorised treadmill repeated 10 times with 30 s recovery between each sprint. The total work done during the ten sprints was 37,693 +/- 3,956 J by the men and 26,555 +/- 4,589 J by the women (M greater than F, P less than 0.01). This difference in performance was not associated with higher blood lactate concentrations in the men (13.96 +/- 1.70 mmol.l-1) than the women (13.09 +/- 3.04 mmol.l-1). An 18-fold increase in plasma adrenaline (AD) occurred with the peak concentration observed after five sprints. The peak AD concentration in the men was larger than that seen in the women (9.2 +/- 7.3 and 3.7 +/- 2.4 nmol.l-1 respectively, P less than 0.05). The maximum noradrenaline (NA) concentration occurred after ten sprints in the men (31.6 +/- 10.9 nmol.l-1) and after five sprints in the women (27.4 +/- 20.8 nmol.l-1). Plasma cardiodilatin (CDN) and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) concentrations were elevated in response to the exercise. The peak ANP concentration occurred immediately post-exercise and the response of the women (10.8 +/- 4.5 pmol.l-1) was greater than that of the men (5.1 +/- 2.6 pmol.l-1, P less than 0.05). The peak CDN concentrations were 163 +/- 61 pmol.l-1 for the women and 135 +/- 61 pmol.l-1 for the men. No increases in calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) were detected in response to the exercise. These results indicate differences between men and women in performance and hormonal responses. There was no evidence for a role of CGRP in the control of the cardiovascular system after brief intermittent maximal exercise. 相似文献

Short-term exposure to 0.5 parts per million (ppm) ozone has been shown to cause an increase in respiratory resistance in primates that can be diminished by 50% with pretreatment with cromolyn sodium. Because of the known membrane-stabilizing effects of cromolyn and the resultant inhibition of mediator production, we hypothesized a role for the products of arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism in these events. We exposed five adult male baboons to 0.5 ppm ozone on two occasions, once with cromolyn pretreatment and once without. Pulmonary resistance (RL) was monitored and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was performed before and after each exposure. The BAL was analyzed for a stable hydrolysis product of prostacyclin, 6-keto-prostaglandin (PG) F1 alpha, PGE2, a stable hydrolysis product of thromboxane (Tx) A2, TxB2, and PGF2 alpha. RL increased after ozone exposure (1.62 +/- 0.23 to 3.77 +/- 0.51 cmH2O.l-1.s, difference 2.15; P less than 0.02), and this effect was partially blocked by cromolyn (1.93 +/- 0.09 to 3.18 +/- 0.40 cmH2O.l-1.s, difference 1.25; P less than 0.02). The base-line levels of the metabolites of AA in the BAL were as follows (in pg/ml): 6-keto-PGF1 alpha 72.78 +/- 12.6, PGE2 145.92 +/- 30.52, TxB2 52.52 +/- 9.56, and PGF2 alpha 22.28 +/- 5.42. Ozone exposure had no effect on the level of any of these prostanoids (P = NS). These studies quantify the magnitude of cyclooxygenase products of AA metabolism in BAL from baboon lungs and demonstrate that changes in the levels of these mediators in BAL are not prerequisites for ozone-induced increases in respiratory resistance.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The effects of hypercapnia produced by CO2 rebreathing on total pulmonary, supraglottic, and lower airway (larynx and lungs) resistance were determined in eight premature infants [gestational age at birth 32 +/- 3 (SE) wk, weight at study 1,950 +/- 150 g]. Nasal airflow was measured with a mask pneumotachograph, and pressures in the esophagus and oropharynx were measured with a fluid-filled or 5-Fr Millar pressure catheter. Trials of hyperoxic (40% inspired O2 fraction) CO2 rebreathing were performed during quiet sleep. Total pulmonary resistance decreased progressively as end-tidal PCO2 (PETCO2) increased from 63 +/- 23 to 23 +/- 15 cmH2O.l-1.s in inspiration and from 115 +/- 82 to 42 +/- 27 cmH2O.l-1.s in expiration between room air (PETCO2 37 Torr) and PETCO2 of 55 Torr (P less than 0.05). Lower airway resistance (larynx and lungs) also decreased from 52 +/- 22 to 18 +/- 14 cmH2O.l-1.s in inspiration and from 88 +/- 45 to 30 +/- 22 cmH2O.l-1.s in expiration between PETCO2 of 37 and 55 Torr, respectively (P less than 0.05). Resistance of the supraglottic airway also decreased during inspiration from 7.2 +/- 2.5 to 3.6 +/- 2.5 cmH2O.l-1.s and in expiration from 7.6 +/- 3.3 to 5.3 +/- 4.7 cmH2O.l-1.s at PETCO2 of 37 and 55 Torr (P less than 0.05). The decrease in resistance that occurs within the airway in response to inhaled CO2 may permit greater airflow at any level of respiratory drive, thereby improving the infant's response to CO2. 相似文献

The influence of maturation on extrathoracic airway (ETA) stability during quiet sleep was determined in 13 normal preterm infants of 1.41 +/- 0.14 (SD) kg birth weight and 32 +/- 2 wk estimated gestational age. Studies began in the first week of life and were performed three times at weekly intervals. A drop in intraluminal pressure within the ETA was produced by external inspiratory flow-resistive loading (60 cmH2O.l-1 x s at 1 l/min); an increase in intrinsic resistance, indicating airway narrowing, was sought as a measure of ETA instability. Baseline total pulmonary resistance was not significantly different between weeks 1, 2, and 3 (88 +/- 35, 65 +/- 24, and 61 +/- 17 cmH2O.l-1 x s, respectively) but increased markedly above baseline with loading to 144 +/- 45 cmH2O.l-1.s during week 1 (P < 0.001), 89 +/- 28 cmH2O.l-1 x s at week 2 (P < 0.01), and 74 +/- 25 cmH2O.l-1 x s at week 3 (n = 10). The increment with loading was significantly greater during week 1 than during weeks 2 or 3 (P < 0.02). Similar studies were also done in seven full-term infants in the first week of life to evaluate the influence of gestational maturity on ETA stability. Despite a relatively greater drop in intraluminal pressure within the ETA of term vs. preterm infants with loading (P < 0.001), total pulmonary resistance failed to increase (68 +/- 21 to 71 +/- 32 cmH2O.l-1.s). These data reveal that ETA instability is present in preterm infants at birth and decreases with increasing postnatal age. Full-term neonates, by comparison, display markedly greater ETA stability in the immediate neonatal period. 相似文献
