Abstract
The effect of pancreatic proteases or juice on the sodium oleate-stimulated pancreatic secretion and plasma concentrations of secretin and cholecystokinin in anesthetized rats was investigated. Each rat received sodium oleate in a dose of 0.12 mmol.h-1 via a duodenal tube. Sodium oleate infusion significantly increased pancreatic secretion (volume and protein output) compared with the saline given the control group. The increase in pancreatic secretion paralleled significant elevations of plasma concentrations of secretin and cholecystokinin. To determine a possible role of pancreatic proteases on the responses induced by sodium oleate, saline, chymotrypsin, and trypsin, a combination of chymotrypsin and trypsin or pancreatic juice was infused into the duodenum. The pancreatic secretion was significantly reduced by pancreatic proteases or pancreatic juice, and the reduction paralleled the decreases in plasma concentrations of the two hormones. These agents suppressed both pancreatic secretion and plasma hormone levels in the following order of magnitude: (pancreatic juice or chymotrypsin + trypsin) greater than (trypsin) greater than (chymotrypsin). The reduction of pancreatic secretion by pancreatic proteases was reversed by intravenous administration of secretin and cholecystokinin in physiological doses. It is concluded that negative-feedback regulation of pancreatic secretion is operative in the intestinal phase in rats and that both secretin and cholecystokinin are involved in the regulation.

Abstract
Trigeminal neuralgia is often seen in elderly persons. Two hundred patients with trigeminal neuralgia were submitted to microvascular decompression by a retrosigmoid approach. The surgical procedure is described. Vascular compression of the nerves was noticed in all these patients at operation. One hundred ninety-seven had relief of symptoms postoperatively, for a 98.5% cure rate. In addition, we suggest that another important cause is arteriosclerosis.

Abstract
Rapid-pressor and slow-pressor responses to angiotensin (ANG) II and norepinephrine (NE) in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and Wistar Kyoto control rats (WKY) were examined. All animals were treated from 4 wk of age with captopril (100 mg/kg/day in drinking water) to prevent development of hypertension so that changes in responsiveness could not be attributed to disparate base-line blood pressures or to hypertension-induced injury of the cardiovascular system. In 11-wk, conscious, unrestrained, captopril-treated rats, ANG II and NE induced rapid-pressor responses (i.e., a rapid increase in arterial blood pressure that reached a maximum within 10 min) that were of similar magnitude in SHR and WKY. In an additional group of 9-wk captopril-treated rats, both ANG II and NE caused slow-pressor responses (i.e., a slow increase in arterial blood pressure over 2 wk). Although the slow-pressor response to NE was similar in SHR versus WKY, the slow-pressor response to ANG II was much greater in SHR compared with WKY. Further studies were conducted in captopril-treated (from 4 wk of age) SHR and WKY to investigate whether the increased slow-pressor response to ANG II in SHR was mediated by an enhanced ability of ANG II to potentiate peripheral sympathetic neurotransmission, contract vascular smooth muscle, increase sympathetic tone to nonadrenal sites, release aldosterone, and/or reduce renal function. No evidence was found that supported a role for the aforementioned nonrenal actions of ANG II. However, 11-wk captopril-treated SHR were 10-fold more sensitive to the antidiuretic, antinatriuretic, and renal vascular effects of intrarenal infusions of ANG II compared with captopril-treated WKY. Also, chronic (1 wk) intrarenal infusions of a very low dose of ANG II (1 ng/min) caused a marked slow-pressor response in 11-wk captopril-treated SHR but did not alter arterial blood pressure in WKY. We conclude that 1) the slow-pressor response to ANG II is greatly enhanced in SHR, 2) this enhancement is specific with respect to type of response (slow not rapid) and pressor agent (ANG II not NE), 3) a genetic defect underlies the increased slow-pressor response to ANG II in SHR, and 4) the enhanced slow-pressor response to ANG II contributes significantly to the pathophysiology of hypertension in SHR. Finally, the current studies are consistent with our working hypothesis that the kidneys mediate the enhanced slow-pressor response to ANG II in SHR.

Abstract
The chromosomal aberration rate (including gap and break) and expression frequency of common fragile sites were examined in peripheral blood lymphocytes cultured with TC199 medium from 96 patients with lung cancers, 40 of their first-degree relatives, and 45 normal control subjects. Both the chromosomal aberration rates and expression frequencies of common fragile sites observed in patients and their relatives were significantly higher than those in normal control subjects. About 60% of chromosomal aberrations were derived from the expression of common fragile sites either in the patients and their relatives or in the controls. The expression of fra(3)(p14) was most frequently observed, and the mean frequencies of its expression in patients and their relatives were significantly higher than in control subjects. It is suggested that common fragile sites might be unstable factors of the human genome, and their expression might be affected by some genetic factors, and they might play an important role in the genetic susceptibility to lung cancers. The significantly high expression of fra(3)(p14) in patients and their relatives may be related to the generation of the breakpoint at band 3p14 found in lung cancers.

Abstract
When a signal sequence is attached to beta-galactosidase, the normally cytoplasmic protein is unable to fully traverse the cytoplasmic membrane. We used a genetic approach to study those features of beta-galactosidase responsible for the block in translocation. By using both in vivo and in vitro techniques, fragments of beta-galactosidase were interposed between a signal sequence and alkaline phosphatase. The alkaline phosphatase acts as a sensor for any blocking effects of beta-galactosidase on export. From these studies, we show that multiple regions of beta-galactosidase contribute to its failure to be translocated. These results are most easily interpreted if the folding of beta-galactosidase or of domains of it is responsible for the block in export. In addition, in certain constructs, positively charged amino acids directly following the signal sequence interfered with export.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to determine whether endogenous adenosine (ADO) participates in angiotensin II (AII)-induced decreases in heart rate (HR) and regulates AII-induced aldosterone (ALDO) release. To test these hypotheses we investigated: 1) the effects of ADO and AII on base-line HR and ALDO levels; 2) the effects of ADO on AII-induced bradycardia and AII-induced increases in ALDO levels; 3) the effects of ADO receptor antagonists [caffeine and/or 1,3-dipropyl-8-p-sulfophenylxanthine (DPSPX)] on AII-induced bradycardia and AII-induced increases in ALDO levels; and 4) the effects of ADO receptor hypersensitivity on AII-induced bradycardia. In the latter experiments, the animals were rendered hypersensitive to the bradycardic effects of ADO by administering caffeine for 1 week then abruptly withdrawing caffeine 18 hr before the experiment, i.e., caffeine withdrawal. Intravenous infusions of either ADO or AII decreased base-line HR and ADO reduced the bradycardic response to AII. Intravenous infusions of DPSPX attenuated and caffeine withdrawal potentiated AII-induced bradycardia without modifying AII-induced increases in arterial blood pressure. AII increased and ADO did not alter base-line plasma ALDO levels; however, ADO attenuated by 50% AII-induced increases in ALDO levels. Neither DPSPX nor caffeine altered the ability of AII to increase plasma ALDO levels. These results indicate that although ADO has the potential to modulate AII-induced increases in plasma ALDO concentrations, endogenous ADO does not regulate the effects of AII on plasma ALDO levels under the conditions of these studies. However, endogenous ADO, in some way, contributes substantially to AII-induced bradycardia.

Abstract
The trophoblast was dissociated from the underlying mesenchymal layer either with acetic acid after short-term prefixation or with mechanical power after fixation twice. The colcemid treatment time was shorted to 16 min and trypsin solution of low pH (6.2) was used for banding. By these steps, the quality of chromosome banding was greatly improved and complete standard chromosome diagnoses were made in 24 of 24 cases. With the modified technique, high resolution banding chromosomes were consistently obtained after short-term incubation.

Abstract
The product of the secB gene is required for export of a subset of secreted proteins to the outer membrane and periplasm of Escherichia coli. Precursor maltose-binding protein (MBP) accumulates in the cytoplasm of secB-carrying mutants, but export of alkaline phosphatase is only minimally affected by secB mutations. When export of MBP-alkaline phosphatase hybrid proteins was analyzed in wild-type and secB-carrying mutant strains, the first third of mature MBP was sufficient to render export of the hybrid proteins dependent on SecB. Substitution of a signal sequence from a SecB-independent protein had no effect on SecB-dependent export. These findings show that the first third of mature MBP is capable of conferring export incompetence on an otherwise competent protein.

Abstract
Experiments were carried out on 47 urethane-chloralose anesthetized and flaxedil immobilized rabbits under artificial respiration. Intracerebroventricular injection (ICV) of neostigmine (100 micrograms/200 microliters) caused a marked increase in blood pressure (BP), left ventricular pressure (LVP) and renal sympathetic nerve discharge (RND), while femoral blood flow (FBF) and conductance (COND), were decreased and the heart rate (HR) was initially reduced and then slightly increased. Microinjection of atropine (0.25 micrograms/site) into the rostral ventrolateral medulla (rVLM) caused a decrease in BP, HR, RND and LVP and a increase in FBF and COND. Pretreatment of atropine injection into rVLM before ICV of neostigmine blocked the pressor response of neostigmine. These results indicate that rVLM is important for the pressor response to ICV neostigmine, which may be mediated via cholinergic muscarinic receptors in rVLM.

Abstract
The compared inhibitory effects of two dose levels of ticlopidine (250 and 500 mg/day) on bleeding time and platelet function in Chinese volunteers have been studied in a placebo-controlled study. Ticlopidine exerted several significant effects: namely prolongation of bleeding time, inhibition of ADP-induced platelet aggregation, reduction of the thromboxane B2 synthesis induced by collagen as well as by ADP. The daily dose of 250 mg did not show significantly different effects as compared to the western, usually recommended daily dose of 500 mg. At the daily dose of 500 mg, adverse reactions occurred more frequently than at the daily dose of 250 mg, but no serious side effects necessitating discontinuation of treatment, or abnormalities in hematological and liver function parameters were observed at these two dose levels. In Chinese people, ticlopidine therapy should be administered at a daily dose of 250 mg.

Abstract
The possibility that putative transmitters may influence the aortic nerve stimulation-produced bradycardia and depressor responses was examined in urethane- and chloralose-anesthetized, paralyzed and artificially ventilated rabbits. The ipsilateral microinjection of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA, 2-4 micrograms) or morphine hydrochloride (2-4 micrograms) into the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) area could partially block the evoked bradycardia and depressor responses produced by stimulation of the aortic nerve without influencing the basal blood pressure and heart rate. This blocking effect of either GABA or morphine was dose-related. Pretreatment with GABA receptor antagonist bicuculline methiodide (0.15-0.20 micrograms) and opiate receptor antagonist naloxone hydrochloride (1-2 micrograms) into the same medullary area completely abolished the effect of GABA and morphine, respectively. Application of bicuculline also greatly antagonized the effect of morphine, but the blocking effect of GABA on the evoked bradycardia and depressor responses still existed following the pretreatment of naloxone. These results indicate that GABAergic and opiate systems present at the NTS exert an inhibitory influence on the evoked baroreflexes and inhibitory effect of the latter may be related to the activation of GABAergic receptor in this nucleus.

Abstract
Extracellular recording experiments were done in urethane- and chloralose-anaesthetized, paralyzed and artificially ventilated rabbits. Thirty-one baroreceptor-sensitive neurones were identified in the region of the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) by their excitatory responses to stimulation of the ipsilateral aortic nerve. A conditioning stimulus delivered to the ipsilateral or contralateral rostral ventrolateral medulla (rVLM) inhibited the excitatory responses of 80.0% (19 out of 24) neurones to an aortic test stimulus as early as 3 ms and extending as long as 400 ms after conditioning. The same inhibitory effect was also observed by application of excitant amino acid DL-homocysteic acid (0.2 M, 100 nl) into the ipsi- or contralateral rVLM area in 6 units. In 5 units inhibited by rVLM stimulation, evoked discharges were inhibited by prolonged electrical stimulation of the superficial peroneal nerve (SP) with low intensity and low frequency (0.1-0.3 mA and 5-10 Hz). These results provide the electrophysiological evidence for the suppressing effect of the rVLM on the excitatory responses of NTS neurones to baroreceptor afferent stimulation.

Abstract
Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase, coded for by the phoA gene, is normally translocated across the cytoplasmic membrane into the periplasm with high efficiency. We have constructed a series of derivatives of the phoA gene that code for a wild-type signal sequence but result in altered amino acid sequences at the amino terminus of the mature alkaline phosphatase. Our results suggest that the presence of two positively charged amino acids very early in the mature sequence interferes significantly with protein export. In one case, phoA2AB, the presence of the sequence Arg-Ile-Arg at the amino terminus of alkaline phosphatase results in a 50-times reduction in the export of the protein. By using oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis, we have constructed mutant derivatives of phoA2AB that are greatly enhanced for export. In all cases, these derivatives reduce the net positive charge in the region. Our results may explain the failure of E. coli to export a number of proteins coded for by artificial constructs and suggest a way to improve export in these cases.

Abstract
A depressor response and bradycardia were produced by aortic nerve stimulation in urethane-chloralose-anaesthetized, paralyzed and artificially ventilated rabbits. Stimulation of the superficial peroneal nerve (SP) or rostral ventrolateral medulla (rVLM) inhibited the aortic nerve stimulation-evoked bradycardia, which was also inhibited by direct microinjection of GABA into the dorsal vagus nucleus (DVN). Application of bicuculline methiodide into the same medullary area antagonized the effect of GABA and partially or completely abolished the SP or rVLM stimulation-produced inhibition. However, strychnine hydrochloride had no effect on the SP or rVLM stimulation-produced inhibition. These observations indicate that GABAergic system present at the DVN is possibly involved in the inhibition of evoked bradycardia during somatic afferent and rVLM stimulation.

Abstract
Our previous studies support the hypothesis that activation of the renin-angiotensin system by renal ischemia elevates adenosine levels and that adenosine acts in a negative feedback loop to limit renin release and to mitigate some of the hypertension-producing effects of angiotensin II. To further test this hypothesis, we compared the time course of caffeine-induced increases in plasma renin activity with the time course of changes in plasma levels of adenosine in two models of renin-dependent renovascular hypertension. Also, we compared the effects of caffeine on plasma renin activity and arterial blood pressure in renin-dependent versus renin-independent renovascular hypertension. In comparison to sham-operated rats, plasma levels of adenosine in the left and right renal veins and aorta were elevated severalfold in two-kidney, one clip rats (2K1C) 1 week after left renal artery clipping. However, adenosine levels declined during the second and third weeks after clipping. In 2K1C rats treated chronically with caffeine, plasma renin activity was markedly elevated during the first week after operation as compared to non-caffeine-treated 2K1C rats. However, during the second and third weeks after clipping, caffeine had lesser effects on plasma renin activity. A temporal relationship between plasma adenosine levels and caffeine-induced hyperreninemia was also observed in rats with aortic ligation. Caffeine accelerated hypertension in 2K1C rats and rats with aortic ligation (renin-dependent renovascular hypertension), but it had no effect on plasma renin activity or blood pressure in one-kidney, one clip rats (renin-independent renovascular hypertension). These results lend further support to the hypothesis that adenosine functions to mitigate the renin-angiotensin system in renin-dependent renovascular hypertension.

Abstract
Vectors were constructed that allow foreign peptides to be expressed in Escherichia coli as fusion proteins. The peptides are fused to the C terminus of maltose-binding protein (MBP), which allows them to be purified by the MBP's affinity to cross-linked amylose (starch). The fusion protein can be directed to the periplasm by including the leader sequence from the phoA gene on the vector.

Abstract
Experiments were done in 41 rabbits anaesthetized with urethane and chloralose, paralyzed with Flaxedil and ventilated artificially. Extracellular recordings of 142 units were made in the dorsal vagal nucleus (DVN) and the nucleus ambiguus (NA), identified by antidromic response to stimulation of the cervical vagus nerve. In total 63.5% of them exhibited spontaneous activity and 22 units (17 in DVN and 5 in NA) showed a cardiac rhythm; their antidromic conduction velocity was 3.7-12.5 m/s, which suggests their having axons in the range of B fibres. These neurones were classified as vagal cardiomotor neurones. A total of 16 DVN and 4 NA vagal cardiomotor neurones were excited orthodromically by electrical stimulation of the contralateral nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS). Electrical stimulation of the superficial peroneal nerve (SP) with low intensity or the deep peroneal nerve (DP) with high intensity which activated C fibres inhibited excitatory responses of 16 neurones (14 in DVN and 2 in NA). The other 4 neurones were unaffected by SP inputs. These results provide electrophysiological evidence for the inhibitory effect of somatic inputs on the evoked discharges of vagal cardiomotor neurones in the DVN and the NA.

Abstract
Converting enzyme inhibitors prevent the development of hypertension and normalize arterial blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), suggesting a critical role for angiotensin II in genetic hypertension. We hypothesized that the SHR is hyperresponsive to the slow-pressor effect of angiotensin II. To test this hypothesis, 14 SHR and 14 normotensive Wistar Kyoto rats (WKY) were treated chronically with captopril (100 mg X kg-1 X day-1 in drinking water) beginning at 5 weeks of age. At 9 weeks of age, either angiotensin II (125 ng/min; 7 SHR and 7 WKY) or vehicle (7 SHR and 7 WKY) was infused for 2 weeks via an osmotic minipump implanted into the peritoneal cavity. Captopril treatment was maintained and systolic blood pressure was monitored 3 times weekly. Although systolic blood pressure was similar in SHR and WKY infused with vehicle (101 +/- 2 versus 103 +/- 5 mmHg, respectively during the second week), systolic blood pressure in SHR treated with angiotensin II was much greater than systolic blood pressure in WKY treated with angiotensin II (193 +/- 9 versus 132 +/- 11 mmHg, respectively during the second week, p less than 0.001). These results indicate that compared to WKY, SHR are remarkably more sensitive to the slow-pressor effect of chronic, low-dose infusions of angiotensin II. Our results support the hypothesis that the critical genetic defect in SHR is a change in the sensitivity to the slow-pressor effect of angiotensin II.

Abstract
Synthetic oligonucleotides, complementary to unique sequences in the heat stable enterotoxin gene of Escherichia coli specific for humans, were prepared with a 30-atom spacer arm and a 3' terminal sulfhydryl group which was coupled to bromoacetyl-derivatized alkaline phosphatase. The resulting direct enzyme-linked oligonucleotide probes, containing one enzyme molecule per oligonucleotide, successfully diagnosed enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli in clinical specimens by using a modified colony hybridization method and a colorimetric assay. The procedure is rapid, simple and reliable with a sensitivity equivalent to that using 5'-terminally labelled [32p]-oligonucleotide probes. The results indicate that the enzyme-labelled oligonucleotide probes should be applicable to the routine diagnosis of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli and possess the potential for the detection of other microbial pathogens.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine if caffeine augments the slow-pressor response to chronic low-dose infusions of angiotensin II (AII) or the rapid-pressor response to acute infusions of AII. AII was infused (125 ng/min i.p.) for 12 d via mini-osmotic pumps in four groups of rats: group I, intact rats not treated with caffeine (n = 9); group II, intact rats treated with caffeine (0.1% in drinking water, n = 9); group III, rats previously sympathectomized with 6-hydroxydopamine, but not treated with caffeine (n = 10); and group IV, rats previously sympathectomized with 6-hydroxydopamine and treated with caffeine (n = 10). Chronic low-dose AII infusions slowly elevated systolic blood pressure in all groups. Caffeine greatly augmented this slow-pressor response to AII in intact animals; however, caffeine failed to enhance AII-induced hypertension in sympathectomized rats. Caffeine pretreatment did not enhance the rapid-pressor response to acute intravenous infusions of AII. We conclude that caffeine augmented the slow-pressor effect of chronic low-dose infusions of AII via a mechanism that involved the sympathetic nervous system.

Abstract
G-banded karyotypes were analyzed on four human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines, AGZY83-a, LTEP-a1, LTEP-a2, and GLC-82. More than 50 cells were counted and 20-40 cells were karyotyped for each cell line at different passages. The chromosome numbers of cell line AGZY83-a, LTEP-a1, LTEP-a2, and GLC-82 were 53-69, 100-110, 51-56, and 61-63, respectively. Each cell line had a number of markers involving complex chromosome rearrangements. Chromosomal analysis at different passages showed the stability of these cell lines in vitro. It was revealed that the marker chromosomes involving deletions or rearrangements of the short arm of chromosome #1 were present in all the four cell lines with breakpoints at 1p12-1p22.

Abstract
Multitubular enzyme reactors with immobilized enzymes were developed to achieve depletion of circulating substrate by extracorporeal means. To act as prototypes, reactors were prepared with immobilized L-phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, an enzyme that metabolizes phenylalanine to trans-cinnamic acid and ammonia without the need for a coenzyme. We report the first application of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase reactors in an extracorporeal circulation system in a patient with phenylketonuria. A phenylalanine level of 1.82 mmol/L (for the last 6 years) decreased to 1.24 mmol/L after 5.5. hours of treatment, without the enzyme entering the circulation. Total phenylalanine depletion from blood and tissue stores was estimated at 1800 mg. The hemodialysis-like procedure proved to be without side effects, specific for phenylalanine, and suitable in the management of pregnant women with phenylketonuria and late-onset hyperphenylalaninemia. The extracorporeal use of enzyme reactors for temporary enzyme replacement represents a new, safe, and effective therapeutic modality.

Abstract
A 24-week pilot study of daily or weekly multiple vitamin supplementation among 852 adults in Linxian, where the rate of esophageal cancer is exceptionally high, demonstrated the feasibility of an intervention trial in this population. Compliance, when judged by pill count, was high for both frequencies of pill use. Only 2% of the subjects refused to take any pills, and, among pill takers, over 95% were reported to be taking most of their pills at the end of the study. Biochemical confirmation of high compliance was demonstrated in urine and blood tests, which showed markedly improved vitamin levels after supplementation. Results of the pilot study indicated that a system in which barefoot doctors were used in pill distribution was effective and that established field operating procedures for a full-scale intervention trial in this area were acceptable.

Abstract
One hundred young patients with recurrent otitis media with effusion (OME) were evaluated for IgE-mediated hypersensitivity by critical analysis of history, physical findings, skin testing for selected antigen, laboratory determination of total IgE, and radioallergosorbent testing (RAST) for six inhalant and two food allergens. The patients could be divided into allergic rhinitis and nonallergic groups. Allergic rhinitis patients had higher total IgE in their serum, and middle ear effusion (MEE). IgE was elevated in 16 of 35 allergic patients. In 8 of these 16 (23% of the allergic group), the IgE/mg protein was higher in the MEE than in the corresponding serum, suggesting local production of IgE. Nasal IgE was substantially increased in the allergic patients; however, in many patients there was no correlation between the corresponding MEE IgE and elevated nasal IgE, suggesting that local production of nasal and middle ear IgE is independent. We conclude that IgE-mediated allergic reactions may play a role in the pathogenesis of OME in about 23% of young allergic patients.

Abstract
Altered control of the rat cell cycle induced by adenovirus requires expression of transformation region E1A, but not of E1B, E2A, E2B, or late genes. We show here that neither E3 nor E4 is required, so the effect results directly from an E1A product. Mutants with defects in the 289-amino-acid (aa) E1A product had little or no effect on the rat cell cycle even at 1,000 IU per cell. A mutant (pm975) lacking the 243-aa E1A product altered cell cycle progression, but less efficiently than did wild-type virus. The 289-aa E1A protein is therefore essential for cell cycle effects; the 243-aa protein is also necessary for the full effect but cannot act alone. Mutants with altered 289-aa E1A proteins showed different extents of leak expression of viral early region E2A as the multiplicity was increased; each leaked more in human than in rat cells. dl312, with no E1A products, failed to produce E2A mRNA or protein at 1,000 IU per cell in rat cells but did so in some experiments in human cells. There appears to be a very strict dependence of viral early gene expression on E1A in rat cells, whereas dependence on E1A is more relaxed in HeLa cells, perhaps due to a cellular E1A-like function. Altered cell cycle control is more dependent on E1A function than is early viral gene expression.
