The study of the safety of bacillary strains forming the base of new probiotics (biosporin and subalin) was made. For control, the safety of Bacillus sp. IP5832 (the base of the preparation of bactisubtil) was studied. The results obtained in this investigation demonstrated that the strains contained in biosporin and subalin were safe when injected intravenously and intraperitoneally into animals in dose of 5 x 10(9) cells per 0.5 ml of physiological saline. The introduction of Bacillus sp. IP5832 in the same dose produced 100% lethal effect. 相似文献

Both hypothyroidism and retinol supplementation in rats induce CYP 3A2 and suppress CYP 2C11. Therefore studies were performed to evaluate the role of thyroid hormones in the modulation of P450 expression by retinol. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were given retinol as a single oral dose of 75 mg/kg. Rats were killed and hepatic microsomes prepared at 24, 48, 72, and 96 hr following treatment. The catalytic activity of 2C11 was reduced maximally by retinol at 48 hr (by 30%) whereas 3A2 activity was elevated maximally at 24 hr (by 30%). The serum concentration of testosterone was not altered at any time point. However, retinol produced a decline in the concentration of thyroxine by 35% and 43% at 24 and 48 hr, respectively. These data suggest that administration of large doses of retinol may alter hepatic microsomal enzyme expression by perturbation of plasma thyroid hormone levels. 相似文献

Tumour ploidy is of prognostic value in colorectal cancer, DNA aneuploid tumours having a worse outlook. Nearly all studies have concentrated on the DNA content of the primary tumour. We have examined the ploidy of the primary tumour and its lymph node metastases in 71 cases of Dukes' stage C disease, to see whether this provides greater prognostic information than the primary alone. Analysis was performed using formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumour sections. Ploidy of primary and metastases was different in 20 cases (28%), aneuploid nodes being seen with diploid primaries and vice versa. Ploidy of both the primary (chi 2 = 4.86, P = 0.03) and secondary (chi 2 = 4.86, P = 0.03) tumours predicted survival in univariate analysis. Combining the ploidy of primary and nodes, three prognostic groups could be defined--diploid primaries with diploid metastases (hazard relative to both aneuploid, 0.36) had significantly better survival than cases where the ploidy of the primary and nodes were mixed (relative hazard 0.47-0.56), which did better than cases with aneuploid primary and nodes. This study demonstrates that ploidy variation between primary and secondary tumours is common, and better prognostic information may be gained by studying both. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To clarify the mechanism of the suppressive effect of 2-buten-4-olide (2-B4O), an endogenous feeding suppressant, on the pulsatile secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH), by studying whether endogenous opioid peptides are involved in this suppressive effect. METHODS: Using ovariectomized (ovx) rats, blood samples were taken every 6 min for 2 h after administration of 2-B4O or saline into the third cerebroventricle (3V) and sequential i.v. injection of naloxone (0. 5 mg/kg per h) or saline. Rats were divided into three experimental groups: group 1: 3V saline + i.v. saline (control); group 2: 3V 2-B4O + i.v. saline; group 3: 3V 2-B4O + i.v. naloxone. Serum LH concentrations were determined by double-antibody RIA. To determine whether 2-B4O affected the biosynthetic activity of the opioidergic neurons within the ovx rat arcuate nucleus, we measured the concentrations of pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) mRNA, a precursor of beta-endorphin, in the rostral arcuate nucleus using non-radioactive in situ hybridization and a computerized image-analysis system. RESULTS: 2-B4O significantly suppressed the pulse frequency of LH (group 2: 1.5+/-0.33 pulses/2 h, group 1: 2.43+/-0.2 pulses/2 h; P < 0.05), but naloxone blocked its suppressive effect and restored the pulse frequency (group 3: 3.29+/-0.36 pulses/2 h, group 2: 1.5+/-0.33 pulses/2 h: P < 0.01). There were no significant changes in the mean LH concentrations and amplitude. Furthermore, 2-B4O significantly stimulated the expression of POMC mRNA in the rostral arcuate nucleus. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that 2-B4O may impair the pulsatile secretion of LH by activating the opioid pathway within the hypothalamus. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: In dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) mild extrapyramidal symptoms are associated with moderate reductions in substantia nigra neuron density and concentration of striatal dopamine. Many DLB patients treated with typical neuroleptics suffer severe adverse reactions, which result in decreased survival. METHODS: In a series of DLB cases, with and without neuroleptic sensitivity, substantia nigra neuron densities, striatal dopamine and homovanillic acid concentrations, and autoradiographic [3H]mazindol and [3H]raclopride binding (to the dopamine transporter and D2 receptor, respectively) were analyzed and compared to control and idiopathic Parkinson's disease cases. RESULTS: D2 receptors were up-regulated in neuroleptictolerant DLB and Parkinson's disease compared to DLB without neuroleptic exposure and controls. D2 receptors were not up-regulated in DLB cases with severe neuroleptic reactions. Dopamine uptake sites were reduced concomitantly with substantia nigra neuron density in Parkinson's disease compared to controls, but there was no significant correlation between substantia nigra neuron density and [3H]mazindol binding in DLB groups. There was no significant difference in substantia nigra neuron density, [3H]mazindol binding, and dopamine or homovanillic acid concentration between neuroleptic-tolerant and -sensitive groups. CONCLUSIONS: Failure to up-regulate D2 receptors in response to neuroleptic blockade or reduced dopaminergic innervation may be the critical factor responsible for neuroleptic sensitivity. 相似文献

Pyrimidine/purine/purine triplexes are known to inhibit DNA polymerization. Here we have studied the mechanisms of this inhibition by comparing the efficiency of Vent DNA polymerase on triplex- and duplex-containing templates at different temperatures, Mg2+concentrations and time intervals with the thermal stability of the corresponding structures. Our results show that triplexes can only be by-passed at temperatures where thermal denaturation initiates, while duplexes, in contrast, are overcome at temperatures where they are quite stable. These results show that DNA polymerase cannot untangle triplex regions within DNA templates and seems to entirely depend on their thermal fluctuations. The high stability of triplexes at physiological temperatures and ambient conditions make them a barrier to polymerization. 相似文献

Endometriosis is usually confined to the pelvis but may involve distant organs. When the small bowel is affected, endometriosis has a propensity to develop in the distal ileum, which may lead to fibrosis and stricture formation that can be confused with Crohn's disease. Here were describe two women, one with antecedent Crohn's colitis in whom ileal endometriosis mimicked obstructing Crohn's disease of the terminal ileum. These reports illustrate that ileal endometriosis must be considered in the differential diagnosis of Crohn's disease of the ileum, even in the presence of Crohn's disease elsewhere in the gastrointestinal tract. 相似文献
