Abstract
The preparation and examination of three dithiocarbamates derived from N-substituted D-gluco-L-talooctamine reveals that the 4-methoxybenzyl derivative (MeOBGD) is superior to any previously prepared dithiocarbamates as an agent for the mobilization of aged intracellular hepatic cadmium deposits from mice. All of these compounds are also quite effective in reducing whole body burdens of cadmium. The use of these compounds does not result in any increase in the cadmium content of the brain. The selection of these chelating agents for synthesis was suggested by an analysis of the log dose-response curves for the mobilization of renal cadmium by previously studied dithiocarbamates. This revealed that the slope of the percentage renal cadmium mobilized vs the log dosage curve is determined to a considerable extent by the sum of the Hansch pi parameters for the substituents, while the intercept is largely determined by the molecular weight of the compound. The implication of such a correlation is that the ability of a chelating agent to remove cadmium from its aged deposits is determined to some extent by its molecular weight, provided the polarity of the overall molecule is appropriate.

Abstract
An examination of the efficacy of several structural types of chelating agents in the removal of cadmium from its intracellular deposits in mouse liver and kidneys reveals that of the structural types examined, only dithiocarbamates and a vicinal dithiol were able to mobilize cadmium from such intracellular sites. Esters of L-cysteine, a macrocyclic thioether, and a disulfide of a dithiocarbamate were unable to cause any appreciable decrease in either renal or hepatic cadmium levels. Charged groups such as carboxylic acid groups reduce the efficacy as well as the toxicity of the structural types that can otherwise mobilize such cadmium. It was also found that the administration of a cadmium-binding polymer ip leads to only a very slight net excretion of cadmium, while the po administration of this polymer leads to no net additional cadmium excretion. Of the compounds newly reported here, some are approximately equal in cadmium-mobilizing efficacy to the most effective of previously reported compounds.

Abstract
The dithiocarbamate-induced removal of aged cadmium from intracellular sites in the kidneys and liver of mice has been followed as a function of time. The processes are quite rapid with the entire course of the cadmium-removal process being completed in 60-90 min. An examination of the rates at which a dithiocarbamate removes cadmium from hepatic and renal deposits in vivo and from metallothionein in vitro, suggests strongly that the processes are similar. A common mechanism is proposed for both processes which involves the direct attack by the dithiocarbamate on cadmium ion incorporated into metallothionein. Such a mechanism is consistent with the similarities in rates and the degree of overall mobilization of cadmium by the same dithiocarbamate both in vitro and in vivo. The administration of 1 mmol/kg of sodium N-(4-methoxybenzyl)-D-glucamine dithiocarbamate (MeOBDCG) to cadmium-loaded mice leads to a reduction of in vivo renal and hepatic cadmium levels of 45% and 30%, respectively, over a period of only 1 h. Previously the incubation of metallothionein in vitro in the presence of 1 mmol/l of MeOBDCG was found to lead to the reduction of the cadmium content of metallothionein of approximately 60% over a period of 1 h. The administration of higher doses of this compound (2 mmol/kg and 4 mmol/kg) to cadmium-loaded mice led to an even more rapid and more extensive removal of cadmium from both the liver and the kidney. The major factors which limit the ability of dithiocarbamates to mobilize cadmium from in vivo sites appear to be molecular structural features which hinder or prevent the access of the dithiocarbamates to the intracellular sites at which the majority of aged cadmium deposits are held.

Abstract
An examination was made of the relative efficacies of 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanol (BAL) and three diesters ( [CH(SH)COOR]2; DMDMS, R = CH3; DEDMS, R = C2H5; and Di-PDMS, R = CH(CH3)2] of meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) in mobilizing freshly injected lead from mice. These diesters, like BAL, reduced the lead levels resulting from freshly injected lead in both the soft tissues (liver, kidneys, spleen, and brain) and the bone (tibia). After treatment with the dimethyl (DMDMS), the diethyl (DEDMS), and the diisopropyl (Di-PDMS) esters the lead content of each of the organs was significantly less than that present in the untreated controls. Each of the diesters reduced lead levels in the kidneys, liver, and spleen significantly below those levels found after BAL treatment. The action of the diesters in reducing brain lead levels was comparable to that of BAL. Di-PDMS was the most effective of these compounds and was significantly superior to BAL. Each of the esters was also significantly more effective than BAL in reducing the whole body level of lead.

Abstract
The newly synthesized dithiocarbamate analog, N-(4-methoxybenzyl)-N-dithiocarboxy-D-glucamine (MeOBDCG) reduced whole-body cadmium levels 66% in cadmium-laden mice when given as 3 injections at 1.0 mmol/kg. Renal and hepatic Cd concentrations were reduced 78 and 85%, respectively. After 6 injections, the whole-body cadmium burden was reduced 71%, while renal and hepatic levels were lowered 84% and 91%, respectively. Mobilized cadmium was excreted almost exclusively by the fecal route. There was no evident toxicity consequent to treatment as judged by mouse body weights and by gross appearance of organs upon dissection. On a molar dose basis, MeOBDCG was more effective than N-benzyl-N-dithiocarboxy-D-glucamine (BDCG) in removing cadmium from both renal and hepatic deposits. An in-vitro assessment of the interaction of MeOBDCG, BDCG and N-methyl-N-dithiocarboxy-D-glucamine with murine cadmium-metallothionein (Cd-MT) revealed a direct relationship between the extent of cadmium depletion from Cd-MT and the relative in-vivo efficacies of the 3 analogs.

Abstract
The esters of the general structure, [CH(SH)COOR]2, i.e., Di-BDMS, R = CH2CH(CH3)2; Ds-BDMS, R = CH(CH3)CH2CH3; Di-ADMS, R = CH2CH2CH(CH3)2; and D3-ADMS, R = CH(CH2CH3)2 from the reaction of meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid with isobutyl, sec-butyl, isoamyl, and 3-amyl alcohols, respectively, have been prepared, characterized, and examined as chelating agents for the removal of cadmium from its aged intracellular deposits. All of these compounds depleted cadmium from such deposits and significantly reduced the whole body levels of cadmium. In the case of three (Ds-BDMS, Di-BDMS, and Di-ADMS) of these compounds, the reductions achieved are equal to or greater than that produced by 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanol (BAL) under similar circumstances. None of these compounds caused any redistribution of cadmium to the brain, and two of them (Di-BDMS and Di-ADMS) caused a very much larger reduction in the liver levels of cadmium than BAL. None was as effective as BAL in reducing kidney levels of cadmium. These compounds are not soluble in water and are administered as solutions in peanut oil. A comparison of the behavior of these compounds with others which have been reported to be effective in reducing body burdens of cadmium in chronic cadmium intoxication reveals that they are among the most effective. An analysis of the manner in which mobilizing efficacy changes with structure indicates that higher, purely alkyl analogs are not expected to be superior to these compounds, though other structural variations may be.

Abstract
Mice which had received a non-lethal injection of cadmium (Cd) as CdCl2 nine days prior to therapy were treated with N-benzyl-N-dithiocarboxy-D-glucamine (BDCG) alone or in combination with either di(iso-butyl)dimercaptosuccinate (DiBDMS) or di(iso-amyl)-dimercaptosuccinate (DiADMS). Seven injections of BDCG (1.0 mmole/kg), DiBDMS (0.4 mmole/kg), and DiADMS (0.4 mmol/kg) reduced whole body Cd burdens 50%, 54% and 37%, respectively; coadministration of BDCG + DiBDMS and BDCG + DiADMS produced respective reductions of 65% and 61%. Seven injections of BDCG lowered renal Cd concentrations an average of 82%, but reduced hepatic Cd concentrations only 53%. The DMSA diesters were more effective in lowering hepatic Cd than in reducing the levels of Cd in the kidneys. The respective hepatic and renal Cd reductions were 50% and 20% after treatment with DiADMS, and were 73% and 30% after treatment with DiBDMS. Coadministration of BDCG with DiADMS reduced hepatic and renal Cd concentrations 74% and 82%, respectively, while BDCG co-administered with DiBDMS yielded respective reductions of 80% and 82%. It is suggested that combined use of these newer Cd complexing agents in studies of experimental Cd poisoning may now permit resolution of the issue of reversibility of Cd-induced nephrotoxicity.

Abstract
The dimethyl, diethyl, di-n-propyl, diisopropyl (Di-PDMS), and di-n-butyl esters of meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid were prepared by esterification of the parent acid and were subsequently purified and characterized. Their relative ability to mobilize cadmium from its aged (greater than 30 days) deposits was evaluated in mice in comparison with 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanol (BAL). All but the dimethyl ester were superior to BAL in reducing the hepatic cadmium levels, though none was superior in reducing renal cadmium levels. Their efficacy in reducing hepatic cadmium levels had the result that all except the dimethyl ester were significantly more effective than BAL in reducing total cadmium body burdens in mice. The most effective of these compounds, Di-PDMS, caused a reduction of whole body cadmium of 59% (i.e., to 41% of control values) under conditions where the corresponding reduction found for BAL was only 18% (i.e., to 82% of control value). The predominant route of excretion of cadmium subsequent to administration of these compounds is via the fecal route (greater than 99%). A synergistic effect was found in the reduction of whole body and kidney cadmium burdens when Di-PDMS was used in combination with trisodium calcium diethylenethriaminepentaacetate.

Abstract
A mixed culture of cyanobacteria (BGA) containingAulosira sp.,Aphanothece sp., andGloeotrichia sp. were grown throughout the year to assess the influence of seasonal variables on their biomass production and nitrogen (N)-yield under field conditions. The seasonal variables considered in this study, i.e., water temperature (maximum, minimum), solar radiation, sunshine hours, and rainfall, fluctuated widely. Attempts were made to establish a relationship between seasonal changes as independent variables and BGA productivity and N-yield as dependent variables. The analysis indicated that solar radiation was the prime factor. Estimates of BGA biomass production varied from 3.3 to 366.5 kg (dry wt)/ha/month, and N-yield ranged from 0.1 to 11.8 kg N/ha/month. The nitrogen accumulated during the study period was 71.2 kg N/ha. The variations explained by seasonal changes were 52.3 and 50.3% for biomass production and N-yield of BGA, respectively.

Abstract
The Topliss scheme, which designates a special series of substituents for use in sequence in the search for suitably substituted aromatic compounds with biological properties superior to the parent unsubstituted aromatic compound, has been applied to the design of new chelating agents for the decorporation of cadmium from its deposits in vivo. Substituted benzylamines have been used in the syntheses of the corresponding substituted sodium N-benzyl-D-glucamine-N-carbodithioates, i.e., RC6H4CH2N(CS2Na)CH2(CHOH)4CH2OH (or RBGDTC): CF3BGDTC, R = 3-CF3; MeBGDTC, R = 4-CH3; MeOBGDTC, R = 4-OCH3; ClBGDTC, R = 4-Cl. Examination of the behavior of these compounds as agents for the mobilization of cadmium from its deposits in vivo shows that such substitution can have an appreciable effect on the organ selectivity for cadmium removal, as well as the efficacy. Of the four compounds suggested by the Topliss scheme for pilot studies, two were much more effective than the parent compound (BGDTC), and of these the best one, sodium N-(4-methoxybenzyl)-D-glucamine-N-carbodithioate (MeOBGDTC) reduced kidney cadmium levels to 30% and liver cadmium levels to 50% of those obtained with the parent compound. Sodium N-[3-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]-D-glucamine-N-carbodithioate (CF3BGDTC) was also found to be superior to the parent compound in reducing the liver cadmium levels, though it was equivalent in reducing renal cadmium levels.

Abstract
Diethyl dimercaptosuccinate (DEDMS) was prepared and found to be capable of mobilizing cadmium from mice one month after they had been given an injection (i.p.) of 0.03 mg CdCl2.2.5H2O containing 1.0 microCi of 109 CdCl2. When pure, DEDMS is a waxy solid with a melting point of 61-62 degrees C which is soluble in warm peanut oil. Its LD50 value (i.p.) in mice is approximately 2.6 mmol/kg, a value which allows it to be given at a higher dosage than other known lipid-soluble dithiols. This compound is especially effective in reducing hepatic and whole body levels of cadmium; it is not as effective as 2,3-dimercaptopropanol (BAL) in reducing renal cadmium levels.

Abstract
Ten healthy volunteers were studied to find out whether tachyphylaxis occurs on repeated application of topical steroids. The Singh and Singh modification of the Reddy and Singh (1976) technique was used. Fluocinolone acetonide cream (0.1%) under occlusion was applied daily for 14 days on the flexor aspect of the forearms. The wheal was induced by pricking with histamine acid phosphate solution and the volume of the wheal produced was calculated. The test was repeated on the same sites on alternate days for 14 days. The maximum wheal suppression, which gradually diminished, was observed on the 8th day. By the 14th day, there was practically total tolerance to topical steroid, which showed minimal suppression of histamine wheal formation. This confirms the occurrence of the phenomenon of tachyphylaxis by different experimental techniques.

Abstract
Efficacy of ten topical corticosteroid preparations was evaluated on ten healthy volunteers by wheal suppression technique of Reddy and Singh motified by Singh and Singh. This double bind study revealed that clobetasol propionate (0.05%) and halcinonide (0.01%) oinment were the potent steroids i.e. 5 to 6 times more potent than hydrocortisone acetate ( 1%). Prednisolone (0.025%0 and hydrocortisone acetate ( 1%) were the least potent. The potency of other of other preparations such as fluocinolone acetonide (0.025%), betamethasone valerate (0.120/o), betamethasone dipropionate (0.64%), dexamethasone (0.04%), beclomethasone dipropiotiate (p.025%) and triamcinolone acetonide (0.1%) was in between. Mid potent steroids were, however 2 times more potent than hydrocortisone acetate (1%) The potency Of these -three groups of steroid preparations were significantly different from each other . The most potent steroids showed maximum efficacy on the 6th day and the remainig steroids on 8th day of continuous application under occlusion.
