Abstract
Cox and Bürk (Eur. J. Biochem., 1991) reported the partial characterization of Milk Growth Factor (MGF) which stimulated the migration of fibroblasts. We have fractionated the partially purified sample by RP-HPLC and obtained the separation of two peaks of activity. The two active components were isolated as pure MGF-a and MGF-b by RP-HPLC and preparative SDS-PAGE. The purified MGF-a, consisting of a single band by gel electrophoresis and a single peak on an HPLC reversed-phase C-4 column, has the same specific activity as TGF-beta 2 in the fibroblast migration assay. MGF-a was digested by endoprotease Asp-N and the cleaved peptides were analyzed by Edman degradation and plasma desorption mass spectrometry (PDMS). The whole sequence of MGF-a determined by automated sequenator and PDMS of S-pyridylethylated protein and selected fragments was found to be identical to that of TGF-beta 2. MGF-b protein mixture separated by SDS-PAGE was electrophoretically transferred onto a Biometra Glassybond membrane, and the blotted MGF-b protein was directly sequenced on an automated sequenator. The identified 29 amino acids sequence of MGF-b was identical to the amino-terminal sequence of TGF-beta 1. Our study demonstrates that MGF is composed of both TGF-beta 1 and TGF-beta 2. TGF-beta 2 (85%) is the predominant form.

Abstract
The monoclonal antibody against bone morphogenetic protein (BMP-McAb) was first used for demonstration of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) in 13 patients with osteosarcoma. Using avidin-biotin complex method (ABC), we demonstrated that BMP mainly existed in the tumor cell cytoplasm and tumorous osteoblast with positive staining in 10 out of 13 osteosarcoma patients. Using this staining method, we can not only differentiate osteosarcoma from fibrosarcoma (all are negative) and other non-osteogenic tumors, but also further classify osteosarcoma according to the BMP content and distribution by means of quantitative histological analysis. The BMP quantity of osteosarcoma with the patients' clinical situation will be useful in clinical diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. The relationship between BMP and the formation of the tumorous bone, and the relation between BMP and the process of osteosarcoma are discussed.

Abstract
The ocular hypotensive effects of medetomidine, a relatively selective alpha 2-agonist, and its analogs were tested in rabbits and cats and their inhibition of adenylate cyclase in the isolated bovine ciliary process was also studied. It was found that topical unilateral administration of medetomidine (0.5-2.0%) to the normotensive rabbits produced a dose-dependent bilateral decrease in IOP with peak reduction in IOP at 2 hr in the treated eye and 1 hr in the untreated eye. A dose-dependent mydriasis was also observed in the treated eye. The dose-response curves of medetomidine and its analogs showed that the ranked order of intrinsic activity at lowering IOP was medetomidine greater than or equal to MPV-1440 greater than detomidine greater than MPV-1441 and MPV-305 BII. At concentrations lower than those used in rabbits, topical application of medetomidine to the normotensive cats lowered IOP in both treated and untreated eyes. Medetomidine and detomidine caused a dose-dependent inhibition of isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity. Detomidine was found to be a partial agonist producing about 43% of maximum inhibition obtained by medetomidine. The IOP efficacy of these alpha 2-agonists paralleled their effects on adenylate cyclase activity. The results demonstrated that these imidazoline derivatives are effective ocular hypotensive agents which may be useful in understanding the contribution of alpha 2-receptors to the regulation of IOP.

Abstract
1. Adult male Wistar rats were injected with streptozotocin (STZ: 55 mg/kg) for inducing diabetes. Then blood and atria for RNA extraction were withdrawn from rats treated 3 and 11 weeks previously with STZ respectively. Atrial total RNA were extracted with cold phenol method. The ANP mRNA contents were determined using Dot blot hybridization technique with alpha-32-P-labelled r-prepro ANP cDNA probe. 2. Plasma glucose was increased and plasma immunoreactive insulin was lowered in rats at 3 and 11 weeks after injection of STZ. ANP gene expression in diabetic rats was depressed. ANP mRNA contents in rats treated 3 and 11 weeks with STZ were 86.4% and 31.7% of that of control rats. 3. Three weeks after treatment of STZ, the rats were gastrically perfused with FOC (Fish Oil Compound) (0.355 ml/kg) once a day successively until 11 weeks. This treatment induces lower blood pressure in rats. ANP gene expression in FOC group was apparently recovered which had been decreased because of the effect of diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Two adenoid cystic carcinomas, one of the nasal cavity, the other a bronchial tumor, were cytogenetically analyzed. The former had a t(6;9)(q21-22;p 13-21) as the sole karyotypic abnormality. The latter had two related abnormal clones, resulting in the mosaic karyotype 46,XY,t(9;17)(p13;p13)/46,Y,t(X;6)(p22;q23),t(9;17)(p13;p13). The karyotypic profiles of the two cases, the only respiratory tract adenoid cystic carcinomas that have been cytogenetically characterized, differ little from those of previously reported adenoid cystic carcinomas of the major salivary glands, underscoring the fundamental biologic similarity among these tumors even when they develop from different structures and in different anatomical sites and organs. Because in the second case the t(9;17) obviously must have preceded the t(X;6), we conclude that both tumors had rearrangement of 9p13 as the primary cytogenetic change. The data thus add to the evidence that 6q changes are frequent, albeit at least sometimes secondary, aberrations in malignant salivary gland tumors. A subset of adenoid cystic carcinomas instead have rearrangement of 9p as the primary, and presumably pathogenetically essential, abnormality.

Abstract
The Chinese translation of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children--Revised (WISC-RC) was administered to 660 children (ages 6 through 16 yr.) in the city of Shanghai. The obtained norms represent children's intelligence levels in big cities where the economic and cultural development is advanced. The norms are reported as "Scaled Score Equivalents of Raw Scores" for each age group and as "IQ Equivalents of Sums of Scaled Scores." The reliability and validity of the norms indicate that the WISC-R is suitable for use with school-age children in China. The difference between the results for our Shanghai sample (WISC-RCs) and a USA sample (WISC-R) is also discussed.

Abstract
The monoclonal antibody against bovine bone morphogenetic protein was used for demonstration of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) in neoplastic bone diseases. The avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex method demonstrated that BMP mainly exists in the cytoplasm of tumor cells of osteosarcoma and chondrosarcoma. Immunostaining showed that a majority of osteosarcomas and all of the chondrosarcoma cells contained a large quantity of BMP. Conversely, none of the fibrosarcomas showed positive staining. Thus, it was possible to differentiate osteosarcomas from fibrosarcomas by immunostaining. In fibrous dysplasia of bone, BMP was abundant in the fibrocellular tissue that had osteogenic activity. In contrast, fibrous tissue of ossifying fibroma showed weak positive staining; only the osteoblasts rimming the bone showed a positive reaction. Immunostaining showed that BMP was also detected in other neoplastic bone diseases such as osteoma, chondroma, and other tumors.

Abstract
Localization of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) in human tissues and cells is important for investigating the mechanism of bone induction. A stable cell line secreting monoclonal antibody against bovine BMP (bBMP-McAb) was obtained by the hybridoma technique. The result of immunohistochemical staining (ABC method) showed that BMP is distributed along collagen fibers of normal bone, in periosteal cells, and in mesenchymal cells of marrow stroma. Little BMP can be found in bone cells of lamellar bone or in calcified bone matrix. BMP may be abundant in human tooth anlagen such as predentin, cells of the outer and inner enamel epithelium, and cells of dental sac generating bone. BMP is found in the cytoplasm of tumor cells of osteosarcoma and chondrosarcoma. Immunohistochemical staining showed that BMP plays a role in bone fracture healing. The ability of BMP-McAb to detect BMP and to inhibit the generation of new bone also makes it potentially useful in diagnosing, treating, and providing a prognosis for osteosarcoma and other bone diseases.

Abstract
Studies were done in rats on placental transfer and excretion into milk of 14C-BMY-28100 upon single oral administration. Studies on absorption, distribution and excretion of 14C-BMY-28100 were also done upon multiple dosing. 1. Fetal tissue concentration of the drug reached a maximum at 6 hours after dosing on day 18 of gestation. The highest concentration observed was only 0.56 microgram equiv./g in fetal kidney; The transfer of radioactivity into the fetus was low. Similar results were obtained from whole body autoradiograms performed in rats on day 12 and day 18 of gestation. 2. Concentrations of radioactivity in milk reached a maximum of 0.60 microgram equiv./ml at 1 hour after administration, and gradually decreased thereafter. The maximum concentration in milk was 10% of the plasma concentration measured at the same time. 3. In the multiple oral administration study, 24 hours blood levels of radioactivity rose progressively with each dose, and reached a level 3.8 times higher than that observed with single dosing by the final (21st) administration. Tissue concentrations were relatively high in aorta, kidney and large intestine as were found upon single administration. However, the ratios of these levels between multiple and single dosing were lower than those observed in blood; 1.7, 3.6 and 2.9 for aorta, kidney and large intestine, respectively. Urinary and fecal excretion were constant after the 2nd administration.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetics of BMY-28100 have been studied in rats and monkeys upon oral administration of 14C-BMY-28100. 1. In rats administered with BMY-28100 at a single oral dose of 20 mg/kg, the peak blood level of the drug was 6.30 micrograms equiv./ml at 1 hour after administration. Blood levels declined biphasically, thereafter. The AUC value was 37.0 micrograms equiv..hr/ml, and was 97% of that observed after intravenous administration. This suggests that BMY-28100 is absorbed at a high absorption rate from the gastro-intestinal tract. 2. In monkeys administered with a single oral dose of 20 mg/kg, the peak blood level was 4.26 micrograms equiv./ml at 3 hours after administration. Thereafter, blood levels declined biphasically as did in rats. The AUC was 38.9 micrograms equiv..hr/ml, which is similar to that observed in rats. 3. Urinary and fecal excretion after 20 mg/kg oral administration were 60.9% and 38.1%, respectively, in rats, and 40.3% and 51.2%, respectively, in monkeys. 4. Although absorption from gastro-intestinal tract was delayed by food intake, this did not affect the total amount absorbed in rats. 5. The absorption rates were similar in rats administered with 20 and 60 mg/kg, while a lower rate was obtained with 200 mg/kg. 6. In rats, biliary excretion was 28.5% of dose administered. Thirty-nine percent of the biliary radioactivity was reabsorbed from the intestinal tract. 7. No differences between sexes were observed in absorption and excretion in rats administered with the drug at 20 mg/kg orally. 8. In rats administered with 20 mg/kg, the radioactivity distributed rapidly to the whole body. High levels of radioactivity were found in gastro-intestinal tract, kidney, urinary bladder, aorta and liver. The radioactivity was removed rapidly from the tissues. Autoradiograms of the whole body were consistent with the measured tissue distribution. Relatively high levels of radioactivity were found in aorta, fascia, and ligament at 0.5, 1, 6, and 24 hours. 9. In vivo protein binding, which increased with time after administration, was 56.8 to 73.5% in rat and 36.3 to 58.6% in monkey. The in vitro protein binding at 0.4 to 50 micrograms/ml of drug concentration was 50.0 to 54.7% in rat, 32.3 to 35.0% in monkey, and 33.4 to 36.3% in human. 10. A stability test of 14C-BMY-28100 in plasma solution showed that the drug decomposed gradually into relatively polar compound(s). At 8 and 24 hours, the proportions of unchanged 14C-BMY-28100 were 53.2% and 5.9%, respectively.

Abstract
The monoclonal antibody against bovine bone morphogenetic protein (bBMP-McAb) was first used for demonstration of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) in osteosarcoma. The avidin-biotin complex method (ABC) demonstrated that of the 18 osteosarcomas, 15 stained positive, while all 6 fibrosarcomas were negative. The results showed that BMP mainly exists in the tumor cell plasma and some tumor-like bone tissues. Using this staining method, we can not only differentiate osteosarcoma from fibrosarcoma and other non-bone-derived tumors, but also classify osteosarcoma according to the content and distribution of BMP and the patient's clinical situation, thus providing a scientific basis for clinical treatment.

Abstract
Numerous studies have differentiated schizophrenic patients and normal controls in electroencephalography (EEG) spectral patterns recorded at rest. We replicated the resting EEG spectral differences between these groups and observed significant differences in periodic photic stimuli on the EEG spectra. Drug-free schizophrenic male patients (n = 8, mean age = 23.9) and normal male controls (n = 11, mean age = 24.3) were studied. Eighty seconds of EEG were collected from each subject for each of four experimental conditions: one resting and three photic-driving conditions (2.38, 4.54, and 8.33 Hz). Eye movement and other movement artifacts were minimized by use of an automatic amplitude threshold filter. Although large eye movements could be excluded as confounding factors, the filter could not for certain exclude small eye movements. Subjects were instructed to keep their eyes closed throughout. A significant difference was found between the groups both at rest and following photic stimulation in EEG activity. This result was characterized by increased delta activity and decreased alpha activity in schizophrenic patients at rest. The EEG activity following the photic driving also differentiated the groups. Schizophrenic patients had decreased sensitivity to the photic stimulation in the alpha range for spectra derived from both fundamental and harmonic analysis.

Abstract
The use of a surface-acoustic-wave (SAW) device to measure the flow rate of liquids is described. A delay-line stabilized SAW oscillator heated to a suitable temperature above ambient is cooled by the flowing fluid. This results in a change in the oscillator frequency. The frequency of a 68-MHz oscillator operated at 9 degrees C above ambient is found to vary by more than 40 kHz for variation in water flow rate from 0 to 0.8 ml/min. Attractive features of this device include the ability to measure very low flow rates (less than 0.1 mul/min) and direct digital output. However, since this is a thermal type of flow sensor, the temperature of the fluid will be slightly elevated during its passage through the flow cell. The device should be useful in applications where low flow rates have to be monitored.

Abstract
Periodic photic stimuli across the entire electroencephalographic (EEG) frequency range were used in an attempt to assess EEG functional differences between chronic schizophrenic patients and control subjects. The EEG responses to these photic stimuli were significantly attenuated in the schizophrenic patients, specifically at the frequencies within the EEG alpha range. The schizophrenic patients also showed an alpha range attenuation in the "no stimulus" EEG alpha measure, such that there was a significant correlation across subjects between the "stimulus" and "no stimulus" EEG alpha range abnormalities. These abnormalities are discussed with reference to possible dysfunctional thalamic mechanisms involved in the pacing of EEG alpha activity and the gating of information through the cerebral cortex.

Abstract
Bovine bone morphogenetic protein (bBMP) was incorporated with bio-active glass ceramic (BGC). The composite of bBMP-BGC and BGC were implanted into the surgically produced periodontal osseous defects in dogs. Observations at 10, 16, 20, and 24 weeks show that the implants of BMP-BGC have the ability of bone induction and enhance the regeneration of periodontal bony defects in a relatively short time, but the implants of BGC alone only have the ability of bone-conduction, these is no bone-induction ability, and made a more long time in repairing the periodontal bony defects.

Abstract
3H-Desferrithiocin (DFT) has been synthesized from desmethyl desferrithiocin. The uptake and release of this 3H siderophore and of its iron complex have been studied in cultured rat hepatocytes and systematically compared to 14C desferrioxamine B (DFO). At 37 degrees, the uptake of both chelators is strictly proportional to the extracellular concentration and no toxicity is observed up to, at least, 1 mM. Uptake of 3H DFT is rapid and reaches a plateau after ca. 1 hr. The accumulation of 3H DFT attains a maximum three times that of 14C DFO and the plateau is reached much more rapidly. Upon reincubation in a drug-free medium of cells that had accumulated 3H DFT, most of the 3H label is rapidly released in the culture medium. These kinetic parameters suggest that the accumulation of these two chelators results from their diffusion across cellular membranes, as a function of the gradient of concentration between the cellular compartment and the extracellular medium. Differential centrifugation of homogenates from hepatocytes incubated with 3H DFT shows that the bulk of cell associated 3H-label (82%) is found in the cytosol, whereas a small proportion (14.5%) is present in the particulate fraction. Isopycnic centrifugation on sucrose gradients suggests that 3H-label associated with the particulate fraction is localized within mitochondria. In contrast, 14C DFO distributes in almost equal proportions between cytosol and the particulate fraction (MLP). At least part of the 14C-label in MLP is associated with lysosomes. Rat hepatocytes cultivated for long term in synthetic culture medium have been used to study iron mobilization by chelators from 59Fe loaded cells. DFT mobilizes iron more rapidly than DFO. This effect is also observed in vitro with ferritin, where, in addition, DFT is much more efficient than DFO to mobilize iron at acidic pH. These results strongly suggest that different iron mobilization from cultured hepatocytes results from differences in the cellular pharmacology of these two chelators and, in particular, in their rate of uptake, cellular accumulation levels and subcellular localizations. DFT could mobilize iron from cytosol and, possibly, to a small extent from mitochondria, whereas DFO would do so from cytosol and lysosomes.

Abstract
A nonconventional joint-transform correlator (NJTC) is discussed. We show that the shift-invariant property of the usual joint-transform arrangement can be preserved. The advantages of the NJTC are the efficient use of the light source, the use of smaller transform lenses, higher correlation peaks, and a higher carrier fringe frequency.

Abstract
This paper reports the result of the content determination of water extract of Caulis Aristolochiae Manshuriensis. It has been found that the yellower colour of section, the richer the contents of the water extract, and the contents tend to decrease when stored for a long time or unsuitably kept. The contents of water extract have nothing to do with the diameter or the producing area. We suggest using cold extraction to determine the contents of water extract of Caulis Aristolochiae Manshuriensis and the content should not be less than 16 percent.

Abstract
Nucleotide cap analogues of 7-methylguanosine 5'-monophosphate (m7GMP) were synthesized in which the 7-methyl moiety was replaced with 7-ethyl (e7), 7-propyl (p7), 7-isopropyl (ip7), 7-butyl (b7), 7-isobutyl (ib7), 7-cyclopentyl (cp7), 7-(carboxymethyl) (cm7), 7-benzyl (bn7), 7-(2-phenylethyl) [7-(2-PhEt)], and 7-(1-phenylethyl) [7-(1-PhEt)]. These derivatives were assayed as competitive inhibitors of capped mRNA translation in reticulocyte lysate. We observed that N7 alkyl and alicyclic substituents larger than ethyl significantly decreased the inhibitory activity of these cap analogues presumably by decreasing their affinity for cap binding proteins, which participate in the initiation of translation. This result defined a maximum size for this class of N7 substituents in the nucleotide binding domain of cap binding proteins. Like m7GMP, the N7-substituted GMP derivatives synthesized in this study were found to be predominantly in the anti conformation as determined by proton NMR analyses. However, bn7GMP and 7-(2-PhEt)GMP, which have aromatic N7 substituents, were more effective than m7GMP as competitive inhibitors of translation. The increased affinity of bn7GMP for cap binding proteins was further examined by synthesis of beta-globin mRNA containing 5'-bn7G, 5'-m7G, or 5'-e7G cap structures. These modified mRNAs were tested as translation templates. Messenger RNA capped with bn7G was observed to increase the translation activity of the template 1.8-fold relative to that of its m7G-capped mRNA counterpart. By contrast, e7G-capped mRNA was 25% less active than m7G-capped mRNA.2+V photo-cross-linking of m7G-capped mRNA to cap binding proteins

Abstract
Short-term cultures of nonneoplastic brain tissue from 11 patients, seven of whom had a malignant brain tumor, were cytogenetically examined. In only a single case was a wholly normal chromosome complement detected; the remaining ten cases exhibited mosaicism with clonal numerical aberrations found alongside cells carrying a normal karyotype. The abnormal clones were characterized by trisomy 7, the loss of the Y chromosome in men and an X chromosome in women, or by combinations thereof. No structural aberrations were present. Our findings demonstrate that although -Y, -X, and +7 have in the past repeatedly been associated with brain tumors, these changes presumably reflect normal in vivo organ mosaicism and, thus, should not be accepted as neoplasia-specific in this context.

Abstract
Alpha 2-adrenergic inhibition of adenylate cyclase in bovine ciliary processes and rabbit iris ciliary body (ICB) was studied. With bovine ciliary process membrane, it was found that cAMP production in the presence of 1 microM isoproterenol was increased with increasing NaCl concentrations from 0 to 200 mM. Clonidine, an alpha 2-adrenergic agonist, produced a NaCl concentration-dependent inhibition of cAMP production in the presence of isoproterenol with a maximum inhibition at 200 mM NaCl (P less than 0.05). NaCl concentrations had no effect on basal adenylate cyclase activities and activity in the presence of clonidine alone. The alpha 2-adrenergic agonists, lofexidine, clonidine and p-amino-clonidine were tested for their ability to inhibit isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase in bovine ciliary process membrane in the presence of 200 mM NaCl. Their dose-response curves showed that they had similar IC50's but the maximum inhibition differed among these agonists. Clonidine was found to be a partial agonists producing 55% of the inhibition obtained with lofexidine. The specificity of inhibition of isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase by alpha 2-agonists and blockade by pertussis toxin was examined by adenine labelling in rabbit ICB. The results demonstrate that alpha 2-adrenergic receptors exert specific inhibitory effects on adenylate cyclase activity in rabbit ICB, which are mediated by an inhibition guanine nucleotide regulatory protein, Gi.

Abstract
A cell line was established from an in situ squamous cell carcinoma of the skin (Bowen's disease), and its in vitro karyotypic evolution was cytogenetically analyzed. Initially, considerable genetic heterogeneity was evident. Nine cytogenetically abnormal clones, eight of which were apparently unrelated, were found among the 83 metaphases analyzed from the primary culture and the first passage. With increasing time in culture this complexity was reduced, so that a single clone dominated passages 7-11. The clone that emerged from this genetic convergence had a t(12;17)(p13;q21) as the sole abnormality. Our findings indicate that the cytogenetic multiclonality that has been repeatedly detected in short-term cultures of squamous cell carcinomas is not caused by the in vitro conditions. Instead, the principles of Darwinian selection apply: the altered, but stable, selection pressure facing a newly established and initially multiclonal cell line will lead to a reduction of genetic heterogeneity until the one clone that now has the proliferative advantage outgrows the other subpopulations.

Abstract
We have cytogenetically analyzed short-term cultures from an in situ squamous cell carcinoma of the skin (Bowen's disease). The following mosaic tumor karyotype was found: 46,XX, -1, +der(1)(pter----p22::q11----cen----p22:), -9, +der(9)t(1;9)(q11; p24)/46,XX,t(3;6) (q21;p21)/46,XX,t(5;14)(q13;q24),t(7;18)(q32;q11)/46,XX,t(8;11)(p22;q13) /46, XX,t(8;11) (p22;q13),t(15;17) (q13;q24)/46,XX,t(12;15)(q12;p11). None of the rearrangements correspond to previously known cancer-associated abnormalities. Two of the clones are obviously related, and it is reasonable to assume that the t(15;17) developed as an evolutionary change in a cell that already contained t(8;11)(p22;q13). Since five clones without cytogenetic similarities were found in this in situ skin carcinoma, we suggest that the tumor was of polyclonal origin. It is impossible to decide whether all, or indeed any, of the visible abnormalities constitute pathogenetically essential primary changes, or merely represent chromosomal markers of secondary importance in tumorigenesis.

Abstract
We examined the intramolecular effect of altered cap structures on translation efficiency of artificial beta-globin mRNAs. For these studies, synthetic dinucleotides of the form X(5')ppp(5')G [X = 7-methyl guanosine (m7G), 2,7-dimethyl guanosine (m2(2,7)G) or 2,2,7-trimethyl guanosine (m3(2,2,7)G)], were transcriptionally incorporated into mRNAs, containing rabbit beta-globin coding sequences, using T7 RNA polymerase and a beta-globin cDNA template. These synthetic mRNAs were assayed in reticulocyte lysate for activity relative to m7G-capped mRNA. m2(2,7)G-Capped mRNA was found to be 1.5-fold more active than m7G-capped mRNA. Messenger RNA capped with m3(2,2,7)G was less active with activity of 0.24 relative to its m7G-capped counterpart (activity = 1.0). These data suggest that m7G-capped mRNAs become more active as translation templates after addition of a single N2 methyl moiety, which is especially pertinent to gene expression in togaviridae. The latter are observed to synthesize m2(2,7)G and m3(2,2,7)G-capped mRNAs in addition to m7G-capped templates during the course of infection in animal cells.

Abstract
Disposition and metabolism of [14C]-amezinium metilsulfate (4-amino-6-methoxy-1-phenylpyridazinium methylsulfate, Risumic) were systematically studied in rats after intravenous (5 mg/kg) or oral (20, 100 mg/kg) administration. After oral administration at 20 mg/kg, blood level reached the maximum (Cmax) of 0.65 microgram eq/ml at 3 h (tmax) and decreased with t1/2 of 8.1 h. Levels in plasma and most tissues elevated to the Cmax at 3 h. The liver level was the highest (61 times as high as plasma level) of all examined tissues. Most tissue levels decreased thereafter essentially in parallel with plasma levels. The findings by whole-body autoradiography essentially agreed with those by radiometry. In lactating rats, milk levels were virtually similar to plasma levels. [14C]-Amezinium metilsulfate radioactivity in fetus and fetal blood was around 0.3 microgram eq/g, being about 1/10 level of maternal plasma level. About 24, 72 and 42% were excreted in urine, feces and bile, respectively. Re-absorption of biliary metabolites accounted for about 31%, being about 13% of orally given [14C]-amezinium metilsulfate. Plasma and aorta contained unchanged amezinium and glucuronide of hydroxyl amezinium MIII. In the brain, the major metabolite was O-demethyl amezinium MV and unchanged drug was not detected. Urinary metabolites were largely MIII glucuronide and the unchanged drug. Biliary metabolite was found composed mostly from MIII glucuronide. In feces, MIII and the unchanged amezinium were found. MIII and its glucuronide were novel metabolites which were identified by thin-layer chromatography and mass spectrometry.

Abstract
We have studied the antigen specificity and processing requirements of three vaccine-induced cloned human T cell lines specific for HBsAg, the envelope protein of hepatitis B virus. Each T cell line recognized endogenously expressed antigen as well as exogenous antigen. Two clones required endosomal processing, both for exogenous and endogenous antigen; while the other T cell line depended on nonendosomal processing to generate antigenic peptides from both endogenous and exogenous antigen. Thus, the two processing pathways are accessible to exogenous and endogenous antigen. These results suggest that vaccine-induced T cells can participate actively in the immune response to live virus.

Abstract
The transfer of iron from 59Fe-labelled human spleen ferritin to human apotransferrin occurs in the absence of either reducing or chelating agents. The reaction is first order with respect to ferritin and zero order to apotransferrin. The transfer is enhanced by low-Mr substances from human serum such as ascorbate, citrate, bicarbonate and lactate. A mixture of the four molecules at their normal physiological concentrations can increase the iron exchange to the same extent as that observed with an ultrafiltrate of serum. A pathway of intracellular iron mobilization is considered.
