GLUTAMINE METABOLISM IN LYMPHOCYTES: ITS BIOCHEMICAL, PHYSIOLOGICAL AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCEWiley - Tập 70 Số 4 - Trang 473-489 - 1985
E A Newsholme, B. Crabtree, M. Salleh M. Ardawi
Glutamine is utilized at a high rate (fourfold higher than that of glucose) by isolated incubated lymphocytes and produces glutamate, aspartate, lactate and ammonia. The pathway for glutamine metabolism includes the reactions catalysed by glutaminase, aspartate aminotransferase, oxoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, fumarase, malate dehydrogenase and phosphoenolpyruvate carb...... hiện toàn bộ
CENTRALLY INJECTED ATRIAL NATRIURETIC FACTOR INHIBITS ANGIOTENSIN‐ AND OSMOTICALLY‐INDUCED DRINKING IN PIGSWiley - Tập 73 Số 6 - Trang 1009-1012 - 1988
Simon N. Thornton, B.A. Baldwin
Atrial natriuretic factor 5‐28 (atriopeptin III, APIHI; 10 µg) injected into the cerebral ventricles of young pigs 5 min before injection of either angiotensin II (AII, 300 ng) or hypertonic NaCl (0·74 M) attenuated the subsequent drinking responses to these dipsogens although the latency to the response was not altered. The inhibition lasted for up to 4 days in the case of AII‐induced dri...... hiện toàn bộ
TOLBUTAMIDE REVERSES HYPOXIC PULMONARY VASOCONSTRICTION IN ISOLATED RAT LUNGSWiley - Tập 74 Số 6 - Trang 959-962 - 1989
B. E. Robertson, David J. Paterson, Chris Peers, P. C. G. Nye
We have investigated the effects of tolbutamide on the hypoxic vasoconstriction of isolated, perfused rat lungs. We did this because lowered ATP may link hypoxia and constriction, and tolbutamide mimics the effects of ATP in other tissues by blocking ATP‐sensitive potassium (ATP‐K) channels. Pulmonary vasoconstriction, induced by lowering the oxygen of the gas ventilating the lungs from 95...... hiện toàn bộ
FACTORS DETERMINING THE DIGESTIVE EFFICIENCY OF THE DOMESTICATED DONKEY (EQUUS ASINUS ASINUS)Wiley - Tập 74 Số 1 - Trang 1-6 - 1989
H. Izraely, I. Choshniak, Amiram Shkolnik, Charles E. Stevens, Montague W. Demment
Factors determining the digestive efficiency of donkeys were studied in animals fed either a low quality roughage (wheat straw: 77·1% neutral detergent fibre, 2·8% crude protein) or a high quality forage (alfalfa hay: 47·5% neutral detergent fibre, 22·7% crude protein). The neutral detergent fibre (NDF) intake when fed wheat straw was 1693 ± 268 g animal−1 day... hiện toàn bộ
GROWTH AND SYNAPSE FORMATION BY IDENTIFIED LEECH NEURONES IN CULTURE: A REVIEWWiley - Tập 74 Số 6 - Trang 965-973 - 1989
John G. Nicholls, Ubaldo García Hernández
Within hours after identified neurones have been isolated from the CNS of the leech, they begin to sprout and to form synapses. Electrical recordings made by loose‐patch clamp show that the tip of the isolated neurone has distinct properties with a high density of sodium channels. Neurites grow out from this tip after about 30 min and continue to grow for the next few days. The extent of g...... hiện toàn bộ
MECHANISMS RESISTING FATIGUE IN ISOMETRICALLY CONTRACTING HUMAN SKELETAL MUSCLEWiley - Tập 73 Số 6 - Trang 903-914 - 1988
H Gibson, Robert G. Cooper, R. H. T. Edwards, María Stokes
Human adductor pollicis was fatigued during circulatory occlusion by supramaximal stimulation via the ulnar nerve using intermittent trains of stimuli in ascending (1, 10, 20, 50 and 100 Hz) and descending (100, 50, 20, 10 and 1 Hz) frequencies to investigate the contribution of relaxation rate slowing and post‐tetanic potentiation (PTP) to fatigue resistance. At 50 and 100 Hz force was in...... hiện toàn bộ
