β-funaltrexamine antagonizes the discriminative stimulus effects of morphine but not naltrexone in pigeons
(Springer-Verlag, 1987-02)
Antagonistic actions of the irreversible, μ-selective antagonist β-funaltrexamine (β-FNA) were evaluated in pigeons trained to discriminate among intramuscular injections of morphine (5.6 mg/kg), saline, and naltrexone ...
The direct enhancement of positive palatability by chlordiazepoxide is antagonized by Ro 15-1788 and CGS 8216
(Elsevier, 1987-04)
In a pre previous study, it was found that positive, palatability-dependent consummatory reactions in rats to intraorally infused tastes were facilitated by chlordiazepoxide (10 mg/kg). In contrast, the rats' more neutral ...
Ion beam modification of metals: Compositional and microstructural changes
(Elsevier, 1989)
Ion implantation has become a highly developed tool for modifying the structure and properties of metals and alloys. In addition to direct implantation, a variety of other ion beam techniques such as ion beam mixing, ion ...
Relationship between the subunit structure of insulin receptor and its competence to bind insulin and undergo phosphorylation
(Elsevier, 1984-11-01)
Insulin receptor partially purified from human placenta by chromatography on immobilized wheat germ agglutinin was subjected to affinity cross linking to determine the relationship between the subunit structure of the ...
Leukotriene C4 induces vasogenic cerebral edema in rats
(Elsevier, 1984-06)
Leukotriene C4 (LTC4) is reported to neither contract nor relax isolated human cerebra artdial strips (1), but in skin LTC4 will increase vascular permeability in post capillary venules, increase blood flow (2) and elicit ...
Identification of a single nucleotide change in a mutant gene for hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT Ann Arbor)
(Springer-Verlag, 1988-05)
HPRT Ann Arbor is a variant of hypoxanthine (guanine) phosphoribosyl-transferase (HPRT: EC 2.4.2.8), which was identified in two brothers with hyperuricemia and nephrolithiasis. In previous studies, this mutant enzyme was ...
Hormonal regulation of plasminogen activator in rat hepatoma cells
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Martinus Nijhoff Publishers ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1983-03)
Plasminogen activators are membrane-associated, arginine-specific serine proteases which convert the inactive plasma zymogen plasminogen to plasmin, an active, broad-spectrum serine protease. Plasmin, the major fibrinolytic ...
Suppression of natural killer (NK) cell activity of spleen cells by thymocytes
(Elsevier, 1981-02)
The in vitro influence of thymus cells on natural killer cell activity of spleen cells against prelabeled target cells (YAC-I and RL[male symbol]I) has been studied in syngeneic as well as in allogeneic murine models. In ...
Hydroxylation of benzo[a]pyrene and binding of (-)trans 5-7,8-dihydroxy-7,8-dihydrobenzo[a]pyrene metabolites to deoxyribonucleic acid catalyzed by purified forms of rabbit liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 : Effect of 7,8-benzoflavone, butylated hydroxytoluene and ascorbic acid
(Elsevier, 1980-06-15)
The catalytic activities of hepatic microsornes from untreated, phenobarbital-treated and 3-methylcholanthrene-treated adult rabbits with respect to benzo[a]pyrene hydroxylation and the activation of (-)(rflw-7,8-dihydro ...
