Cholinergic agonist-antagonist interactions on neocortical and limbic EEG activation
(Elsevier, 1967-09)
The effects of various cholinergic agonists and antagonists and their interactions were determined on the awake-sleep cycle of cats with chronic indwelling brain electrodes. The effects were measured by the use of the EEG ...
in vivo steroid biogenesis and metabolism in the human term placenta 2. in situ placental perfusion with cholesterol-7[alpha]-3H
(Elsevier, 1966-11)
Two human term placentas have been perfused with cholesterol-7[alpha]-3H. The perfusions were carried out at the time of elective repeat cesarean section and tubal ligation in term pregnancies. The major tritiated steroid ...
Effects of chlorpromazine on some motor reflexes,
(Elsevier, 1963-08)
The effects of chlorpromazine (CPZ) on the patellar reflex and segmentally evoked spinal cord potentials were determined in various cat preparations. CPZ in doses of 1-8 mg/kg given intravenously (as an accumulative dose) ...
Action of nicotine on the ascending reticular activating system
(Elsevier, 1962-12)
Synchronization of the electroencephalogram was produced by midpontine brainstem transection in the rabbit, cat and dog, and by high pontine transection in the monkey. After transection, i.v. injections of 10-20 [mu]g/kg ...
Automatic continuous monitoring of enzymic activity in column effluent
(Elsevier, 1964-12)
A procedure has been deseribed using the flow system of analysis for continuous monitoring of enzymic activities in column effluents. The system exhibits a high degree of sensitivity. Greater than 90% of the enzyme in the ...
Protein-Carbohydrate interaction : VII. Physical and chemical studies on concanavalin A, the hemagglutinin of the jack bean
(Elsevier, 1968)
Concanavalin A yielded a monodiperse pattern in the analytical ultracentrifuge in the pH range 2-5. The sedimentation coefficient, so20,w in pH 5 acetate buffer containing 0.1 NaCl (total [Gamma]/2 = 0.20) was 4S. At pH ...
A study of the biosynthesis of phenazine-1-carboxylic acid
(Elsevier, 1964)
Washed cell preparations of Pseudomonas aureofaciens synthesize phenazine-1-carboxylic acid in a medium consisting of 0.2 M glycerol and 0.02 M-lysine. Experiments with C14-labeled substrates indicate that all of the carbon ...
Testosterone metabolism in target tissues: Hypothalamic and pituitary tissues of the adult rat and human fetus, and the immature rat epiphysis
(Elsevier, 1969-11)
Rat pituitary, hypothalamic and cerebral cortical minces are demonstrated to effect the conversion of testosterone (T) to 5[alpha]-androstan-17[beta]-o1-3-one (DHT) and [Delta]4-androstene-3,17-dione ([Delta]4A). The ...
A mutant form of ornithine transcarbamylase found in a strain of Neurospora carrying a pyrimidine-proline suppressor gene
(Elsevier, 1962-04)
A mutation, s, of Neurospora, leads to a 98% reduction in ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) activity without imposing an arginine requirement. It has been found that the enzyme present in the s strain is different from the ...
