There was a singificantly larger deposition of particles in the proximal parts of the airways in rabbits exposed to an aerosol of the bronchoconstrictor compound carbachol than in control rabbits exposed to distilled water alone. The resistance to insufflation of a constant volume of air increased during the exposure to the carbachol aerosol, indicating bronchoconstriction. There was reproducible interindividual differences in bronchoconstrictor response to the carbachol aerosol. They were attributed to interindividual differences either in deposition of carbachol or in bronchial muscle sensitivity to carbachol.

The results suggested that metals other than those already reported (Cd, Zn, Cu, and Hg) can bind the protein. These observations were confirmed by in vivo radiotracer experiments by injecting i.p. 21 labelled metal ions in cadmium-treated rats. Of the metals tested, 109Cd, 65Zn, 64Cu, 203Hg, 106Ag and 113Sn were found incorporated in the Cd-BP. The incorporation of 35S-cysteine, used as an indicator of Cd-BP biosynthesis, was increased in rats exposed to cadmium as compared to untreated animals. In order to establish the influence of other metal ions on the biosynthesis of Cd-BP and the incorporation of cadmium in the protein, in vivo experiments were carried out by i.p. injection of 109Cd and 35S-cysteine. In the presence of 42 metal ions no influence was observed on the incorporation of the two radioisotopes in the Cd-BP.

Comparisons were made at 11, 20 and 21 days of gestation between sea level controls rats bred at sea level and placed at reduced barometric pressure on confirmation of pregnancy (SHA). Although fewer fetuses were present in SHA rats on day 11 of gestation, litter size at days 20 and 21 was similar to controls. Body weight and length of SHA fetuses were significantly reduced by day 21 of gestation while placental weights remained similar to controls. The follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) content in the pituitaries of SHA rats was significantly reduced at days 11 and 21 of pregnancy as compared with controls; luteinizing hormone (LH) content was lower at day 20 than at day 11 among SHA rats.

Vitamin B12 absorption in x-irradiated rats. x射线照射大鼠对维生素B12的吸收。

The rate of absorption of vitamin B12 from the intestinal loops is decreased in x-irradiated rat. Inclusion of gastric juice from normal rat does not improve the rate. A severe interference in the absorption and retention of orally fed (57-Co)-B12, as evidenced by low serum levels, decreased organ uptake and increased excretion, is observed. However, when the vitamin is administered intraperitoneally, its uptake by organs is not affected in the irradiated animal. This suggests that the observed morphological degeneration of mucosal cells in x-irradiated rats is the main reason for the malabsorption of vitamin B12. Atrophy of intestinal cells in the protein-fasted rat accentuates the adverse effects of radiation.
