It has steadily proved to be of much use in clinical research of neurological and psychiatric diseases, in which altered functions of central monoamine neurotransmitters have been identified. In this work 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylethylglycol (MHPG), 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC), homovanillic acid (HVA) and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) were quantified in normal CSF and in patients with untreated Parkinson's disease (PD) and olivopontocerebellar atrophy (OPCA). Normal CSF was obtained from 162 patients at the time of spinal anesthesia for surgery. Reference values for monoamine metabolites were established for normal adult lumbar CSF. Up to the age of 70 years no relation of monoamine metabolite concentration with age or sex were encountered. In individuals above 70 years of age higher levels of MHPG, HVA, and 5-HIAA were present in women, while in men only higher levels of MHPG could be detected. A strong correlation between 5-HIAA and HVA concentrations were observed in all groups. PD patients exhibited normal CSF metabolite levels, but an altered 5-HIAA/HVA ratio, favoring 5-HIAA. Dominant and recessive OPCA differed essentially in HVA concentration-diminished in the first group and elevated in the last. Comparing the results obtained in PD and dominant OPCA, we suggest that the decrease of CSF HVA in the latter group might not reflect nigrostriatal degeneration as we previously thought. Possibly another factor influencing dopamine function in the CNS is involved.</p>","PeriodicalId":75608,"journal":{"name":"Boletin de estudios medicos y biologicos","volume":"41 1-4","pages":"13-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18528116","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Also, a partial characterization of the radiolabeled lipid fraction was obtained. The effects of in vivo steroids administration were evaluated by 14C-U-glucose metabolic incorporation into lipids by the female hamster flank organs in culture conditions, in the presence or absence of LNG and/or T in the incubation medium. The radioactive lipids were identified by thin layer chromatography. Levonorgestrel alone or together with testosterone on female hamster flank organs decreased the organ weight and sebum content compared with T-treatment alone. In culture conditions, a rapid and significant increase of radiolabeled glucose was observed with T. By contrast when LNG was present in the incubation medium, no differences in 14C-U-glucose incorporation were observed when compared with their controls. When T+LNG were added, a similar result to the obtained when using LNG alone was determined. Testosterone increased glycerides and free fatty acids but decreased polar lipids; whereas LNG did not have any effect in the relative proportions of 14C-U-glucose incorporated into the different classes of lipids, when it was compared with their controls. The results indicated that LNG abolished the increasing effect of 14C glucose incorporation caused by T and changed the lipid composition induced on female hamsters flank organs.</p>","PeriodicalId":75608,"journal":{"name":"Boletin de estudios medicos y biologicos","volume":"41 1-4","pages":"20-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19068427","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Four groups of cats were studied: 1) CRA and continuous administration of nimodipine, 1 microgram/kg/min iv during 6 h; 2) CRA and continuous administration of vehicle; 3) sham and continuous administration of nimodipine as in group 1; 4) sham and vehicle as in group 2. MUA and electroencephalogram disappeared during ischemia-anoxia; their progressive recovery occurred throughout the hours following CRA, although 6 h after CRA MUA was still lower than its control prearrest values in all the recorded subcortical structures. Delta-like waves, isolated spikes, and bursts of fast EEG waves occurred during the recovery of EEG activity. Nimodipine inhibited the otherwise increasing MUA in mesencephalic reticular formation, hippocampus and putamen, but not in ventromedial hypothalamus, during the hours following acute global cerebral ischemia-anoxia. Absence of isolated spikes and bursts of fast EEG activity was noted in the EEG of CRA-, nimodipine-treated cats.
