1-(substituted)benzyl-5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamides are potent orally active inhibitors of Trypanosoma cruzi in mice

1-(Substituted)benzyl-5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamides are potent orally active inhibitors of Trypanosoma cruzi infections in mice. The most active compounds are the 1-(4-chlorobenzyl)- and 1-(3,4-dichlorobenzyl)-analogs (L-153,094 [2] and L-153,153 [4], resp.) which are approximately 7-fold more potent upon oral administration than nifurtimox (Lampit) in suppressing parasite levels in the blood of mice with acute Trypanosoma cruzi infections.     

Glucose/galactose malabsorption caused by a defect in the Na+/glucose cotransporter

Glucose/galactose malabsorption (GGM) is an autosomal recessive disease manifesting within the first weeks of life and characterized by a selective failure to absorb dietary glucose and galactose from the intestine. The consequent severe diarrhoea and dehydration are usually fatal unless these sugars are eliminated from the diet. Intestinal biopsies of GGM patients have revealed a specific defect in Na(+)-dependent absorption of glucose in the brush border. Normal glucose absorption is mediated by the Na+/glucose cotransporter in the brush border membrane of the intestinal epithelium. Cellular influx is driven by the transmembrane Na+ electrochemical potential gradient; thereafter the sugar moves to the blood across the basolateral membrane via the facilitated glucose carrier. We have previously cloned and sequenced a Na+/glucose cotransporter from normal human ileum and shown that this gene, SGLT1, resides on the distal q arm of chromosome 22. We have now amplified SGLT1 complementary DNA and genomic DNA from members of a family affected with GGM by the polymerase chain reaction. Sequence analysis of the amplified products has revealed a single missense mutation in SGLT1 which cosegregates with the GGM phenotype and results in a complete loss of Na(+)-dependent glucose transport in Xenopus oocytes injected with this complementary RNA.

The effects of manganese and barium on the cardiac pacemaker current,i f,in rabbit sino-atrial node myocytes

Summary The isolation of ionic fluxes contributing to electric currents through cell membranes often requires block of other undesired components which can be achieved, among others, by divalent cations. Mn²⁺ and Ba²⁺ are often used, for example, to block Ca and K currents. Here we have investigated the effects of these two cations on the properties of the hyperpolarization-activated pacemaker current i_f, in rabbit sino-atrial node myocytes, as obtained by voltage clamp analysis. We find that 2 mM Mn²⁺ shifts the i_f activation curve by 3.2±0.3 mV towards more positive values. However, when 1 mM Ba²⁺ is also added, the positive shift is more than halved (1.3±0.2 mV). We find, too, that in the absence of blocking cations the ACh-induced i_f inhibition is slightly higher than in their presence. These results indicate that the alteration of i_f kinetic properties by Ba²⁺ plus Mn²⁺-containing solutions is minimal.     

Alopecia induced in young mice by exposure to excess dietary zinc

Summary Second generation mice were exposed to normal (50 ppm, Group I) or excess (2000 ppm, Group II) zinc in the maternal diet during gestation and lactation, then weaned and continued on the mother's diet until sacrifice at 8 weeks. Tibia zinc reflected dietary intake. Group II had reduced plasma copper, body weight, and hematocrit; the second coat of hair appeared late and was lighter in color than Group I, possibly as an effect of copper and pigmentation development and hair growth.     

Overcast tests with clock-shifted pigeons

In order to investigate the pigeon's compass mechanism, a series of overcast tests with clock-shifted birds were run at two familiar release sites. While controls were able to assume a correct homeward direction, the experimental birds' initial orientation cannot be explained either on the basis of a time-compensated sun compass or of a time-independent magnetic compass. Speculative explanations of our paradoxical results are attempted.
