The possible roles of anorexia, competition for glucose by the tumour, and lack of hormonal control of glycogen biosynthesis have been investigated. The glycogen content of the liver, skeletal muscle, and brain, and the levels of glucose and the hormones corticosterone, insulin, and glucagon were determined in healthy rats which had been starved for various periods and in tumour-bearing rats carrying the fast-growing Zajdela ascites hepatoma or the slow-growing solid hepatoma 27. It was found that towards the terminal stages of tumour development there was an increase in the content of corticosterone and glucagon in the blood serum and also an increase in the glycogen reserves in skeletal muscle and brain despite the presence of hypoglycaemia and hypo-insulinaemia. There was at this time a sharp fall in the level of liver glycogen. It is shown that neither anorexia nor excessive competition for glucose by the tumour were the main reasons for liver glycogen depletion and hypoglycaemia. A strong correlation was observed, however, between the occurrence of anaemia and the loss of liver glycogen, which suggests that the former may be an important factor in the changes in host tissue observed in response to tumour growth.</p>","PeriodicalId":77499,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12935359","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}

Furthermore, the postinfarction changes in BP showed a negative correlation with the endothelium-dependent relaxation. Preliminary adaptation of rats to short-term nondamaging stress exposures or pretreatment with the antioxidant, ionol, prevented to a great extent both the postinfarction decrease in BP and the disturbances in endothelium-mediated responses of smooth muscle.

In order to prepare a specific immune antiserum, rabbits were immunised with homogenates of the rat metrial gland removed at day 15 of pseudopregnancy. The resultant immune antisera were adsorbed by glutaraldehyde-polymerised sera from nonpregnant rats until the Ouchterlony test ceased to give a positive reaction with sera of nonpregnant rats. These adsorbed specific sera continued to react with sera of pregnant and pseudopregnant animals, indicating that the latter both contain one or more antigens identical to those produced by the cells of the metrial gland, and against which the specific antisera had been raised. When 10% and 15% fresh serum from nonpregnant females was added to molten agar or was initially dropped into wells in the agar, the positive reaction between the specific antisera and the sera of pregnant and pseudopregnant rats was not eliminated. An antigen identical to the serum antigen was also found in amniotic fluid, in sera, and in extracts of metrial glands from pregnant and pseudopregnant laboratory animals.

However, in many cases the true biochemical functions and some of the structural aspects of cytoskeletal filaments are still unknown. Several hybridoma cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies (Mab) against a complex of linear DNA with the tridecapeptide Dns-NH2-VVTGVKTGVKTVT-CO2H have been established. (Dns is 5-methylaminonaphthalene-1-sulphonic acid.) The organization of this complex, in which the DNA is in a compact form, has been well-characterized previously by physicochemical methods and electron microscopy. A monoclonal antibody, Mab 66/9, was selected for further study on the basis of its reactivity with the immunizing DNA-peptide complex and minimal reaction with DNA alone. In immunofluorescence studies with cultured cells, this Mab did not recognize any nuclear structures, but reacted with cytoskeletal intermediate filaments and with nuclear lamins. Thus, Mab 66/9 appears to define an epitope present in the immunizing DNA-peptide complex and in cytoskeletal elements. The epitope is probably determined by the conformation of the oligopeptide since it was not detected in denatured cell lysates. Our observations provide some indirect evidence in support of the DNA-binding properties of cytoskeletal components which have been hypothesized in some recent publications.</p>","PeriodicalId":77499,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13003028","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}
