Abstract
Effects of 12-sulfodehydroabietic acid monosodium salt (TA-2711), a new anti-ulcer agent, on gastric secretion and experimental ulcers were investigated in rats. Oral administration of TA-2711 at doses of 25 to 100 mg/kg immediately after pyloric ligation markedly reduced pepsin activity and slightly lowered acid concentration without affecting the volume of gastric juice. Addition of TA-2711 (0.25-16 mg/ml) directly to gastric juice also reduced pepsin activity in vitro. Oral TA-2711 dose-relatedly inhibited the formation of pylorus-ligated ulcers (50-200 mg/kg), aspirin-induced gastric erosions (25-100 mg/kg) and cysteamine-induced duodenal ulcers (100-800 mg/kg). In addition, this drug prevented both the formation of gastric lesions (6.3-100 mg/kg, p.o.) and the fall in gastric potential difference (100 mg/kg, p.o.) induced by ethanol. The preventive effect against ethanol-induced lesions was suppressed by pretreatment with indomethacin (10 mg/kg, s.c.). Intravenous dosing of TA-2711 (10-100 mg/kg) never produced such effects on ethanol-induced lesions and pepsin activity as observed by oral administration. These results indicate that TA-2711 exerts its anti-ulcer effect by a local action, and it is suggested that both reduction of pepsin activity and a mucosal prostaglandin-mediated process are involved in the anti-ulcer action of TA-2711.

Abstract
Two rat hearts were perfused in series by a modified Loewi's method. The recipient heart was perfused with the perfusate collected from the donor heart. 1. After perfusion with 3H-isoprenaline in the presence of tropolone, an inhibitor of catechol-O-methyltransferase, the donor heart was washed out with amine-free medium containing tropolone and corticosterone. The heart rate of the recipient heart increased after the change to the perfusate from the donor heart during the wash-out. After wash-out the heart rate of the donor heart (which had accumulated 43.4 pmol.g-1 3H-isoprenaline) was higher than that of the recipient heart (which had accumulated 0.44 pmol.g-1 3H-isoprenaline), and the rates of efflux of 3H-isoprenaline from both hearts were similar. 2. After perfusion with 3H-isoprenaline and corticosterone in the absence of tropolone, the enhanced heart rate of the donor heart decreased during wash-out with amine-free medium in the presence of corticosterone. The heart rate of the recipient heart increased after the medium change to the perfusate from the donor heart, and the heart rates in both hearts were similar after wash-out. Only small amounts of 3H-isoprenaline remained in both hearts after wash-out, and the rates of efflux of 3H-isoprenaline from both hearts were similar. 3. After perfusion with 3H-isoprenaline in the presence of tropolone, the effects of propranolol and atenolol on the heart rate during wash-out with amine-free medium containing tropolone and corticosterone were compared. The inhibitory effect of propranolol on the heart rate was significantly greater than that of atenolol.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Extraneuronal accumulation of isoproterenol in atria and ventricle of perfused rat heart was investigated. Rat hearts were perfused with various concentrations of 3H-isoproterenol for 30 min in the absence and the presence of catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) inhibitor (tropolone). When COMT was intact, the accumulation of 3H-isoproterenol in both atria and ventricle after perfusion with low concentration of 3H-isoproterenol (0.01 to 1 mumol/l) was less than that of perfusing concentration; the tissue/medium ratio (T/M) of isoproterenol for artia was lower than that for ventricle. The T/M of isoproterenol after perfusion with 10 and 20 mumol/l of 3H-isoproterenol were 0.94 and 1.76 for atria and 3.25 and 2.95 for ventricle, respectively. When COMT was inhibited by tropolone, the T/M increased 6.3-9.0 folds for atria and 5.1-6.7 folds for ventricle after perfusion with 3H-isoproterenol (0.01 to 1 mumol/l). From these results, it was concluded that both atria and ventricle of the rat heart have an extraneuronal O-methylating system as reported in rat whole heart, and was suggested that there might be different capacities of extraneuronal uptake and COMT between them.

Abstract
Chloropolysporins A, B and C, as well as derivatives prepared from this group and alpha- and beta-avoparcins by enzymatic and mild acid hydrolysis, were active against Gram-positive bacteria including clinically isolated methicillin-resistant Staphylococci (MIC 0.39-6.25 micrograms/ml) and anaerobic enterobacteria (MIC 0.10-1.56 micrograms/ml). Derhamnosyl and demannosyl derivatives from both groups of antibiotics showed stronger activities than the parent compounds. The MIC and MBC values against Staphylococci were similar and were not effected by the presence of serum. Moreover, chloropolysporin C exhibited very strong synergistic effects with various beta-lactam antibiotics against methicillin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Some of these compounds also protected mice from experimental infection with S. aureus. Acute toxicities of chloropolysporin by intravenous administration ranged from 215-290 mg/kg in mice. Chloropolysporin B as well as other glycopeptide antibiotics, showed distinctive growth promoting activity in broiler chickens.

Abstract
The authors examined the effects of hypoxia (8% O2 in N2) on the turnover rates of norepinephrine (NE) and epinephrine (E) in the heart, adrenal gland, submaxillary gland and stomach. The turnover rates were estimated by measuring the decrease in the content of NE and E after an i.p. injection of alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine (250 mg/kg), an inhibitor of tyrosine hydroxylase. After a 4-h exposure to hypoxia, the turnover rate of NE in the heart and those of NE and E in the adrenal gland were increased, whereas that of NE in the submaxillary gland was decreased. The turnover rate of NE in the stomach was unchanged. Pretreatment with hexamethonium, a ganglionic nicotinic receptor blocker, abolished the hypoxia-induced changes in the turnover rate of NE or E in the heart, adrenal gland and submaxillary gland. Furthermore, transection of the spinal cord at the level of C5-6 abolished hypoxia-induced alterations in the turnover rate of NE and E in the adrenal gland and submaxillary gland. In contrast, the hypoxia-induced changes seen in the heart persisted, although at a lower level, even after transection. These results show that the effects of hypoxia on the activities of the sympathoadrenal system differ depending on the organs; activities are increased in the heart and adrenal gland, decreased in the submaxillary gland and unchanged in the stomach. Furthermore, the present data suggest that hypoxia-induced alterations in the activities of cardiac sympathetic nerves originate in both the brain and spinal cord, including preganglionic neurons, whereas changes in the activities of the sympathetic nerves to the adrenal gland and submaxillary gland originate mainly in the brain.

Abstract
Experiments were carried out in isolated perfused rat hearts. The presence of tropolone (100 mumol/l), an inhibitor of catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT), significantly potentiated the positive chronotropic response to isoprenaline (0.1, 1, 3 and 10 nmol/l). Two uptake2 inhibitors, 3-O-methylisoprenaline (100 mumol/l) and normetanephrine (100 mumol/l), induced a positive chronotropic response, but corticosterone (100 mumol/l) and hydrocortisone (100 mumol/l) had no such effect. 3-O-methylisoprenaline (100 mumol/l) and normetanephrine (100 mumol/l) enhanced the positive chronotropic response to isoprenaline (0.1, 1, 3 and 10 nmol/l). Corticosterone (100 mumol/l) potentiated the positive chronotropic response to isoprenaline (0.1 and 1 nmol/l). Hydrocortisone (30 mumol/l) enhanced the response to 0.1 nmol/l isoprenaline but did not affect the positive chronotropic responses to 1, 3 or 10 nmol/l isoprenaline. The addition of uptake2 inhibitors (3-O-methylisoprenaline, 100 mumol/l; normetanephrine, 100 mumol/l; corticosterone, 100 mumol/l) to the perfusion medium significantly reduced the positive chronotropic response to the perfusion with isoprenaline (3 nmol/l) and tropolone (100 mumol/l). The accumulation of 3H-isoprenaline in the heart perfused with 3H-isoprenaline (1, 10 and 100 nmol/l) was significantly increased by the presence of tropolone (100 mumol/l): the accumulation for 1, 10 and 100 nmol/l of 3H-isoprenaline was 5.07, 47.0 and 500 pmol/g, respectively. The high accumulation observed during perfusion with 3H-isoprenaline (3 nmol/l) and tropolone (100 mumol/l) was significantly decreased by the addition of an uptake2 inhibitor, 3-O-methylisoprenaline (100 mumol/l), normetanephrine (100 mumol/l) or corticosterone (100 mumol/l), but not by hydrocortisone (30 mumol/l).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Overgrowth by Clostridium difficile has been reported in conventional mice injected intraperitoneally with ampicillin. In this study, we aimed to determine which types of indigenous intestinal bacteria were eliminated by ampicillin to allow overgrowth by C. difficile. C. difficile overgrowth was associated with a decrease in the numbers of lactobacilli, an increase in bacteroidaceae and a slight decrease in the frequency of isolation of fusiform-shaped bacteria (clostridia). C. difficile cytotoxin was detected in caeca from mice in which the numbers of C. difficile were greater than 10(5) per gram of faeces. Gnotobiotic mice were inoculated with various groups of intestinal anaerobes to determine which members of the indigenous flora would antagonize C. difficile. Gnotobiotic mice inoculated with three strains of lactobacilli, 37 strains of bacteroides or 46 strains of clostridia isolated from limited-flora mice were unable to eliminate C. difficile. C. difficile was eliminated, however, from the gastrointestinal tracts of gnotobiotic mice inoculated with whole faeces or chloroform-treated faeces from conventional mice or whole faeces from limited-flora mice containing only clostridia.

Abstract
In vitro and in vivo antibacterial activities of cefmetazole alone and in combination with fosfomycin against methicillin- and cephem-resistant (MR) strains of Staphylococcus aureus were investigated, and the mechanism of synergistic effect between cefmetazole and fosfomycin was also studied. Cefmetazole inhibited the growth of 71 strains of MR S. aureus at concentrations ranging from 1.56 to 50 micrograms/ml; the antibacterial activity of cefmetazole against these strains was enhanced approximately 4 times with the addition of fosfomycin at a concentration of 1.56 micrograms/ml. The binding affinity of cefmetazole for the penicillin-binding protein 2' fraction specific for MR S. aureus was higher than that of methicillin, cloxacillin, cefazolin, and cefotaxime. A synergy experiment in vitro was performed by checkerboard titration with Mueller-Hinton agar plates containing various concentrations and ratios of cefmetazole and fosfomycin. The fractional inhibitory concentration index ranged from 0.09 to 0.75. Exposure of cefmetazole plus fosfomycin to exponentially growing cultures at a concentration at which both antibiotics had no bactericidal effect when given alone exerted bactericidal action. Combined administration of cefmetazole with fosfomycin at a ratio of 1:1 against systemic MR S. aureus infections with mice showed an excellent therapeutic efficacy as compared with administration of either antibiotic alone. Penicillin-binding protein 2', 2, and 4 fractions were scarcely detectable in MR S. aureus strains grown in the presence of fosfomycin at concentrations of 0.25 MIC and 0.5 MIC, respectively.

Abstract
An attempt was made to isolate Clostridium difficile from a total of 565 mice from nine different conventional mouse colonies and six different specified-pathogen-free mouse colonies. C. difficile was isolated from all the conventional colonies but from none of the specified-pathogen-free colonies. Ampicillin injected intraperitoneally increased the isolation rate of C. difficile from mouse faeces to 63.6% compared with 19.4% from untreated mice.

Abstract
Effects of trimebutine maleate (TM-906) on the spontaneous contraction of isolated duodenum and ileum were studied in both guinea pigs and rabbits. In the duodenum and ileum of both guinea pigs and rabbits, TM-906 (10(-6) g/ml, 10(-5) g/ml) produced a potentiation of the spontaneous contraction in preparations with low contractile activity (low tone or small contraction), while it caused an inhibition of the spontaneous contraction in preparations with high contractile activity (high tone or large contraction). The potentiation of spontaneous contraction by TM-906 was more pronounced in the ileum than in the duodenum of both guinea pigs and rabbits. When the spontaneous contraction of duodenum and ileum was decreased by atropine, the potentiation of spontaneous contraction by TM-906 was further augmented and was more pronounced in the ileum than in the duodenum. When the spontaneous contraction was remarkably potentiated by physostigmine or acetylcholine, TM-906 markedly inhibited the potentiated spontaneous contraction, and the potentiation by TM-906 seen in preparations with low contractile activity disappeared. From these results, it is concluded that TM-906 produces, depending on the contractile activity of the preparations, a potentiation or an inhibition of the spontaneous contraction of duodenum and ileum in both guinea pigs and rabbits and that the potentiation by TM-906 is more pronounced in the ileum than in the duodenum. It is suggested that the endogenous acetylcholine partly modifies the effects of TM-906, but that it does not relate to the more pronounced potentiation by TM-906 in the ileum than in the duodenum.

Abstract
Isolated rat hearts were perfused with various concentrations of isoprenaline (0.01-10 mumol/liter) for 30 min at a constant flow rate (6.5 ml/min) at 37-44 degrees C. The occurrence of ventricular fibrillations was isoprenaline concentration dependent and also perfusion temperature dependent in the combined treatment with various concentrations of isoprenaline and high perfusion temperatures. When the hearts were perfused with isoprenaline (1 mumol/liter) in the presence of tropolone (100 mumol/liter) at 40-41 degrees C, the duration of ventricular fibrillations was significantly prolonged, but the incidence of ventricular fibrillations was similar to that produced with isoprenaline (1 mumol/liter) alone. The antiarrhythmic drugs such as quinidine sulfate, lidocaine hydrochloride, dl-propranolol hydrochloride, carteolol hydrochloride, atenolol, dl-verapamil hydrochloride, and diltiazem hydrochloride, given at a concentration of 10 mumol/liter, significantly suppressed the incidence and duration of such ventricular fibrillations. Bretylium tosylate (10 mumol/liter) significantly suppressed the duration of the ventricular fibrillations but not their incidence. These results indicate that ventricular fibrillation induced by combined treatment with a high concentration of isoprenaline and tropolone at a high perfusion temperature in isolated rat hearts is a more useful experimental model of arrhythmia than conventional models.

Abstract
Ureaplasmas from various animal species were serologically characterized by the growth inhibition test as well as by the metabolism inhibition test. The animals positive for ureaplasmas included 9 common squirrel monkeys, 9 green monkeys, 164 cynomolgus monkeys, 58 chimpanzees, 73 goats, 11 sheep, 102 dogs, 116 cats, 64 cattle, 290 chickens, 3 red jungle fowls and 5 Japanese bantams. Simian ureaplasmas were divided into four serogroups in accordance with the zoological classification of the primates' families. Caprine ureaplasmas were all similar antigenically, and ovine ureaplasmas cross-reacted with the caprine ones, except for one strain. Canine, feline and bovine ureaplasmas were divided into groups of four, two and three, respectively. Avian ureaplasmas contained only one serogroup. All these ureaplasma serogroups were remarkably unrelated antigenically to each other, as shown by the growth inhibition test. Ureaplasmas could not be isolated from rhesus monkeys, Japanese monkeys, orangutans, gorillas, mice, rats, mongolian gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, opossums, pigs, quails and turkeys.

Abstract
Effects of trimebutine maleate (TM-906) on the spontaneous motility of the gastrointestinal tracts were investigated in anesthetized dogs by means of force transducers. TM-906, administrated intravenously or intraduodenally, produced an inhibition followed by a potentiation of the spontaneous motility in the stomach, and caused a potentiation of the spontaneous motility in the duodenum, jejunum, ileum and colon. These effects of TM-906 were observed also in the vagotomized dogs as in the intact dogs. From these results, it is suggested that TM-906 modulates the spontaneous motility of the gastrointestinal tracts primarily through the peripheral mechanism.

Abstract
Effects of trimebutine maleate (TM-906) on the smooth muscles of isolated guinea pig gallbladder were investigated. TM-906 inhibited the contractile responses to cholinergic nerve stimulation (5 Hz) and to acetylcholine (3 X 10(-8) g/ml) to the same extent, both of which produced much the same amplitude of contraction. TM-906 noncompetitively antagonized the contractile response to methacholine, and it caused a parallel shift of dose-response curves for the contractile response to CaCl2 to higher concentrations. Moreover, TM-906 inhibited the contractile response to 50 mM KCl in a dose-dependent manner. On the other hand, TM-906 itself evoked a slight contractile response in a dose-dependent manner. The contractile response induced by TM-906 was prevented by exposure to Ca++-free solution, but not by tetrodotoxin or atropine. From these results, it was suggested that TM-906 inhibited the contractile responses to cholinergic nerve stimulation, acetylcholine, methacholine and 50 mM KCl by reducing the influx of calcium ion across the cell membrane, while it was assumed that TM-906 itself evoked a slight contractile response by increasing in some way the concentration of the intracellular free calcium ion available for the contractile systems.

Abstract
Effects of trimebutine maleate (TM-906) on the spontaneous contraction of isolated guinea pig colon were investigated. TM-906 in the concentrations of 10(-6) g/ml and 10(-5) g/ml increased the tone without affecting the amplitude of the spontaneous contraction in the preparations with low tone, whereas it decreased the tone and the amplitude of the spontaneous contraction in the preparations with high tone. At the higher concentration (10(-4) g/ml). TM-906 decreased the tone and finally abolished the spontaneous contraction in any preparation. The increase in tone induced by TM-906 was prevented by diltiazem and exposure to Ca++-free solution, but not by tetrodotoxin, atropine, phentolamine or propranolol, and depended on the extracellular concentration of CaCl2. On the other hand, the decrease in tone and amplitude of the spontaneous contraction produced by TM-906 were not prevented by tetrodotoxin, phentolamine or propranolol. TM-906 further increased the tone increased by 10 mM KCl, while it decreased the tone increased by 30 mM KCl. From results described above, it is suggested that TM-906 possesses both a relaxing effect and an excitatory effect which seem to be due to its direct action on the smooth muscle.

Abstract
Our results of previous and successive studies indicate that torque control of curve-tipped catheters is easily accomplished by placing a guide mark on the catheter. Thus, a guide mark was made on a curve-tipped 14 FG Portex suction catheter using a felt pen. The efficacy of selective bronchial suctioning using this catheter was studied in 50 patients. Directed suctioning of the left and right bronchial passages was performed in each patient 3 times and once, respectively, with the head in the midline position. The success rate of left bronchial suctioning was 92% (138/150 attempts) and success in right bronchial suctioning 98% (49/50 attempts). The curve-tipped catheter with a guide mark significantly improved the success rate of left bronchial entry over the previous rate from 50% to 92%.

Abstract
Trimebutine maleate is known to have beneficial effect in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. In conscious dogs with implanted force transducers, effects of trimebutine maleate on the gastrointestinal motility were investigated by intravenous injection, and the results were compared to those with metoclopramide and hyoscine-N-butylbromide. When trimebutine maleate was administered during the motor quiescence in the interdigestive state, contractions were evoked or the quiescent time was shortened in the gastrointestinal tract. In the digestive state, the gastric antral contractile activity was reduced, and duodenal activity was somehow suppressed by trimebutine maleate; but in the jejunum, ileum or colon, the activity was augmented. Injection of metoclopramide evoked a continuous contraction in the gastric antrum and duodenum during the period of motor quiescence in the interdigestive state. In the digestive state, metoclopramide caused a slight enhancement in the contractile activity of the gastric antrum. On the other hand, hyoscine-N-butyl-bromide produced no effect during the period of motor quiescence in the interdigestive state and suppressed the activity of the gastrointestinal tract during the digestive state. Thus, the pattern of action of trimebutine maleate was different from metoclopramide and hyoscine-N-butylbromide. It was concluded that trimebutine maleate produces dual actions, suppression and acceleration, on the gastrointestinal motility in conscious dogs.

Abstract
Effects of trimebutine maleate (TM-906) on the spontaneous contraction were investigated in the isolated circular smooth muscle of the antrum region of the guinea pig stomach. TM-906 dose-dependently reduced the amplitude of the regular spontaneous contraction without any marked change in its frequency and basal tension. This effect of TM-906 was also observed in the presence of phentolamine, propranolol, atropine, and tetrodotoxin. However, the inhibitory effect of TM-906 was overcome by increasing the extracellular concentration of CaCl2. On the other hand, in preparations which exhibited irregular spontaneous contraction, TM-906 regularized it, and spontaneous contraction with regular frequency and amplitude was elicited. In addition, this regularizing effect of TM-906 was also observed in the presence of atropine and tetrodotoxin. It was concluded that TM-906 has dual effects on the spontaneous contraction, reducing the amplitude of regular contraction and regularizing the irregular contraction. These effects of TM-906 may be attributed to the direct action on the smooth muscle.

Abstract
An attempt was made to eradicate respiratory diseases developed in about 1,000 mice of 19 congenic inbred strains which were maintained in a mouse breeding room. The contagious diseases with respiratory signs were found to be caused by mixed infections with Mycoplasma pulmonis and Sendai virus. The eradication of the diseases was mainly made by sanitary improvement in care of the mice such as intensive disinfection, culling some diseased mice and so on, instead of destroying all colonies. As the result, mycoplasma infection decreased gradually, resulting in a complete eradication about one and half years later and remarkable increases in litter size and weaning rate of mice were obtained. Sendai virus infection failed to be eradicated.

Abstract
Ureaplasmas were isolated from the oropharynxes of 47 of 247 (19 per cent) Leghorn chickens (Gallus gallus domesticus) and from five Japanese bantams but none was isolated from the oropharynx or cloaca of other poultry comprising 10 Japanese game, 75 common quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica), 17 turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo) and 10 guinea fowls (Numida galeata). In apparently healthy chickens, ureaplasmas were found at various sites, including the conjunctiva, nasal cavity, oropharynx, upper and lower tracheas, but not from the air sac, lungs, yolk, oviduct, urine or cloaca. All the isolates were antigenically similar but had no serological relation to those isolated from man, monkey, cattle, goat, sheep, dog and cat. In chickens experimentally infected with an avian ureaplasma, the organisms infected the oropharynx and nasal cavity but none of the birds inoculated demonstrated any clinical signs or macroscopic lesions.
