In order to clarify whether an interaction between endogenous opioids and feeding occurs at birth, we studied Beta-endorphin (beta-EP) and ACTH plasma levels in response to a feed of 10% glucose, or formula, in 120 healthy full-term infants. Neither postprandial beta-EP nor ACTH increases were found at the 24th hour or on the fourth day of life. beta-EP physiology in newborn infants seems to be different from adults. 相似文献

Codon usage in the vertebrate hemoglobins and its implications 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A study of codon usage in vertebrate hemoglobins revealed an evolutionary
trend toward elevated numbers of CpG codon boundary pairs in mammalian
hemoglobin alpha genes. Selection for CpG codon boundaries countering the
generally observed CpG suppression is strongly suggested by these data.
These observations parallel recently published experimental results that
indicate that constitutive expression of the human alpha-globin gene
appears to be determined by regulatory information encoded within the
structural gene. The possibility is raised that, in the absence of
selection, CpG decay can be used to date the evolutionary origin of a
mammalian alpha pseudogene from its active alpha gene.

Previous studies have demonstrated that the intercellular spaces of the stratum corneum contain multilamellar lipid sheets with variable ultrastructure in addition to desmosomes or desmosomal remnants. The intercellular lamellae are thought to provide a permeability barrier whereas the desmosomes are responsible for cell-cell cohesion. In this study, transmission electron microscopy of RuO4-fixed tissue was used to compare the proportions of the intercellular spaces in epidermal and palatal stratum corneum occupied by desmosomes and by different patterns of lamellae. Desmosomes are more abundant in palatal than in epidermal stratum corneum (46.9 vs 15.0% length of intercellular space). In epidermis the most frequent lamellar arrangements involve 3 (23.5%) or 6 (24.2%) lucent bands with an alternating broad-narrow-broad pattern, whereas the most frequent lamellar arrangements in palatal tissue are 2 (17.2%) or 4 (10.5%) lucent bands of uniform width. Most of the nondesmosomal portion of the intercellular space in palatal stratum corneum was dilated and had elongated lamellae at the periphery and short disorganized lamellae and amorphous electron-dense material in the interior. It is concluded that the multilamellar lipid sheets are less extensive in palatal than in epidermal stratum corneum, which could explain the greater permeability of the palate. 相似文献

Background
New generations of image-based diagnostic machines are based on digital technologies for data acquisition; consequently, the diffusion of digital archiving systems for diagnostic exams preservation and cataloguing is rapidly increasing. To overcome the limits of current state of art text-based access methods, we have developed a novel content-based search engine for dermoscopic images to support clinical decision making. 相似文献6.

Leukotriene A4 epoxide hydrolase from dog lung, a soluble enzyme catalyzing the hydrolysis of leukotriene A4 (LTA4) to leukotriene B4 (LTB4) was partially purified by anion exchange HPLC. The enzymatic reaction obeys Michaelis- Menten kinetics. The apparent Km ranged between 15 and 25 μM and the enzyme exhibited an optimum activity at pH 7.8. An improved assay for the epoxide hydrolase has been developed using bovine serum albumin and EDTA to increase the conversion of LTA4 to LTB4. This method was used to produce 700 mg of LTB4 from LTA4 methyl ester. The partial by purified enzyme was found to be uncompetitively inhibited by divalent cations. Ca2+, Mn+, Fe2+, Zn+2 and Cu+2 were found to have inhibitor constants (Ki) of 89 mM, 3.4 mM, 1.1 mM, 0.57 mM, and 28 μM respectively Eicosapentaenoic acid was shown to be a competitive inhibitor of this enzyme with a Ki of 200 μM. From these inhibition studies, it can be theorized that the epoxide hydrolae has at least one hydrophobic and one hydrophilic binding site. 相似文献

The embryonic period during which Mullerian duct regression and Mullerian Inhibiting Substance (MIS) secretion occur was determined in canine embryos removed from timed pregnancies (32, 36, 37, 39, 42, and 46 days gestation). Sex chromosomes of each embryo were identified in metaphase spreads prepared from fibroblast cultures. Testicular differentiation, defined by seminiferous tubule formation and the presence of Sertoli cells and Leydig cells, and the degree of Mullerian duct regression were determined by careful morphologic analysis of histologic sections of canine embryonic gonads (n = 20) and Mullerian ducts (n = 20). MIS was detected immunohistochemically in embryonic testes using avidin-biotin complex enhancement of a specific rabbit polyclonal anti-MIS antibody. Testicular differentiation was observed at 36 days gestation. The earliest evidence of Mullerian duct regression in male embryos was observed at 36 days gestation, and regression was completed by 46 days gestation. Positive staining for MIS was present in testes from 36 to 46 days (n = 9). Staining was absent in the undifferentiated testis (n = 1) at 32 days gestation and in ovaries at all ages tested (n = 10). Thus, MIS is normally present throughout the critical period for Mullerian duct regression in the embryonic male dog. 相似文献
