For more than 50 years the Guy's Hospital physician Frederick Pavy (1829-1911) attempted to discredit the theory of his erstwhile teacher, Claude Bernard, that liver glycogen was broken down to supply sugar to the systemic circulation. His opposition was driven by his clinical perceptions and was based on two assumptions: the first was that the kidney was a simple filter through which small molecules would diffuse, so that sugar had to be prevented from reaching the systemic circulation. For Pavy, the liver was the barrier. The second was teleological: he could not believe that nature would operate in what he saw as a defective way, i.e. converting sugar into glycogen and then back again. At the beginning of his long working life Pavy regarded himself as a physiologist and was critical of the stagnancy of English physiology which was kept afloat by amateurs like himself in whatever time they could spare from busy private practice. At the end he came to see his own view of carbohydrate metabolism as symbolic of the schism between responsible clinicians (himself) and irresponsible daydreaming physiologists (his opponents).  相似文献

Summary Human fetal hemoglobin was more susceptible to methemoglobin formation in the presence of aminophenols than was adult hemoglobin. This was due to the intrinsic properties of the proteins rather than the presence of methemoglobin reductases.This work was supported by a grant from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences GM-17184.  相似文献

The effect of an acute non-specific inflammatory exudate with mitogenic activity on macrophages in culture has been tested on the spontaneous and PHA-induced DNA synthesis of spleen cells in vitro. Stimulatory effect of this exudate was observed on spontaneous DNA synthesis which was detectable over a range of 1 : 4 to 1 : 4,000 concentrations. After optimal PHA stimulation, an inhibition of mitogen-induced DNA synthesis was observed when the cells were exposed to the highest concentrations (up to 1 : 128) of the exudate. Thereafter, the phenomenon could be reversed and the stimulation was maximal at a concentration of 1 : 2,000. When a sub-optimal dose of PHA was used, the simulatory effect was more pronounced and detected from 1 : 8 up to 1 : 4,000 concentrations.  相似文献

Interleukin-1 (Il-1) was added to collagen lattice cultures of human skin fibroblasts. No cell division was induced, the ability of fibroblasts to contract the lattices was decreased and a dose-related inhibition of collagen synthesis without effect on non-collagen proteins was found. Indomethacin had no influence on these effects.  相似文献

In order to study the sperm-egg recognition mechanism on the surface of the plasma membrane, zonae were removed from mouse eggs by exposure to acidic conditions. Sperm binding to denuded eggs was then observed in the presence of various sugars. Among several carbohydrates tested, only glucosamine (GlcN) was found to increase the number of sperm bound to eggs while inhibiting sperm-egg fusion. The inhibition was reversible; when denuded eggs were transferred to a GlcN free medium, a high rate of polyspermy was observed.  相似文献

Transgenic mice with a small hairpin RNA construct interfering with the expression of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) were created by lentiviral transgenesis. TRPV1 expression level in transgenic mice was reduced to 8% while the expression of ankyrin repeat domain 1 (TRPA1) was unchanged. Ear oedema induced by topical application of TRPV1 agonist capsaicin was completely absent in TRPV1 knockdown mice. Thermoregulatory behaviour in relation to environmental thermopreference (30 vs. 35°C) was slightly impaired in male knockdown mice, but the reduction of TRPV1 function was not associated with enhanced hyperthermia. TRPV1 agonist resiniferatoxin induced hypothermia and tail vasodilatation was markedly inhibited in knockdown mice. In conclusion, shRNA-mediated knock down of the TRPV1 receptor in mice induced robust inhibition of the responses to TRPV1 agonists without altering the expression, gating function or neurogenic oedema provoked by TRPA1 activation. Thermoregulatory behaviour in response to heat was inhibited, but enhanced hyperthermia was not observed.  相似文献

The ability of strains of Aeromonas hydrophila to bind 125I-labelled collagen types I and IV, fibronectin, laminin, lactoferrin, and immobilized mucins and orosomucoid on latex beads was found to be a property common to all the isolated strains. The binding was specific, was inhibited by homologous unlabelled glycoproteins, and was protease sensitive. The nature of the binding is discussed.  相似文献

Growth and longevity of the Rats were the same when: (i) the diet was rich in casein (21%), from weaning to death: (ii) the casein content of this diet (without B12) was progressively lowered from weaning to 200 days of age, and thereafter was 7%. When the casein level had been too rapidly lowered, inducing retardation of growth after 75 days, maximal growth was lowered and life span was increased.  相似文献

The binding of HDL, Apo-E-free, was studied in rats fed a cholesterol rich diet for 2, 4 and 7 days. Plasma cholesterol increased up to 16-fold (from 55 to 900 mg/dl); liver cholesterol was also raised, from 0.5 to 16 mg/g of tissue. The HDL binding to membrane preparations was not affected while the binding of beta VLDL was reduced to about 50% of the controls. These data show, therefore, that liver binding sites for HDL are refractory to regulation by dietary cholesterol.  相似文献

Immunohistochemical localization of glutamine synthetase in human liver   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
R Gebhardt  H Schmid  H Fitzke 《Experientia》1989,45(2):137-139
Glutamine synthetase (GS) of human liver was recognized with a polyclonal antibody to pig brain GS, but failed to stain with an antibody against rat liver GS. Using the latter antibody GS of human liver was shown to be localized within small rings of 1 to 3 hepatocytes surrounding the terminal hepatic venules. This pattern was analogous to that seen in rat and mouse liver.  相似文献

Summary A microbiol culture able to grow in the absence of oxygen with nitrilotriacetate (NTA) as the sole source of carbon and energy was enriched from river sediment. Growth was strictly dependent on the presence of nitrate and the results indicate that nitrate was exclusively used as the electron acceptor and was reduced to dinitrogen (N2). The stoichiometry of anaerobic NTA degradation by the enrichment culture was determined.  相似文献

Summary The dye Lucifer Yellow was injected into single smooth muscle cells in the guinea pig small intestine in order to study intercellular coupling. Dye-coupling was observed in both the circular and longitudinal muscle layers and was markedly reduced when the intercellular pH was lowered. These results suggest the presence of gap junctions among intestinal muscle cells, but are inconsistent with previous ultrastructural studies that failed to demonstrate such junctions in the longitudinal muscle.  相似文献

Immunoreactive human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) was found in 9 of 65 surgically removed malignant breast tumors. Concentrations ranged from 5 to greater than 500 mIU hCG/g tumor. hCG was measured by a beta-chain specific readiommunoassay. In further study of these specimens, an immunoperoxidase staining technique was used to stain for hCG in formalin-fixed sections. The hCG was shown to be localized within the cytoplasm and on the surface of the malignant cells.  相似文献

This paper argues that, contrary to the claims of Alan Chalmers, Boyle understood his experimental work to be intimately related to his mechanical philosophy. Its central claim is that the mechanical philosophy has a heuristic structure that motivates and gives direction to Boyle's experimental programme. Boyle was able to delimit the scope of possible explanations of any phenomenon by positing both that all qualities are ultimately reducible to a select group of mechanical qualities and that all explanations of natural phenomena are to be in terms of the operations of machines and are to appeal only to qualities that are already familiar. This is illustrated by his investigations into the Torricellian experiment. Boyle's explanation of the elevation of the mercurial cylinder by appeal to the spring of the air was an intermediate mechanical explanation. Boyle was convinced that the spring of the air was ultimately reducible to the mechanical qualities. This in turn had implications for his research into the cause of respiration. In a move that was both parsimonious and consistent with the broad requirements of the mechanical philosophy, Boyle was able to solve the problem of the cause of the inflow of air into the lungs by appeal to his research in pneumatics. This application of a mechanical explanation in pneumatics to physiology is just what one would expect if the mechanical philosophy was as universal as Boyle claimed it to be. Therefore, far from Boyle's experiments having a life of their own, they were clearly directed by and understood in terms of the mechanical philosophy.  相似文献

Neural discharge in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) was examined after gastrin-17 injection into the carotid artery in anesthetized rats. Neural discharge was increased by gastrin-17 injection into the carotid artery close to the cranium, and the response due to the gastrin was dose-dependent. No discharge response was seen when gastrin was injected into the jugular vein. These results suggest that gastrin circulating in the arterial blood can penetrate the blood brain barrier, and modulate neural PVN activity which is responsible for gastric acid secretion.  相似文献
