Experimental studies of electroacupuncture on ventricular fibrillation threshold in rats with acute ischemic myocardium

Summary By ligating the proximate left anterior descend (LAD) of coronary artery and inducing the ventricular fibrillation with electrical stimulation, the preventive effects of electroacupuncture (EA) on ventricular fibrillation were observed. The results showed that the ventricular fibrillation threshold (VFT) of rats with acute ischemic myocardium was raised after acupuncturing some acupoints, which could prevent the occurrence of ventricular fibrillation. Furthermore, the combination of EA and propranolol could enhance the VFT effectively, and they showed a good synergistic effect.

Preliminary observations on the activity of progabide, administered as monotherapy in complex partial seizures

Progabide (PGB), a gamma-amino-butyric acid receptor agonist, was administered, according to an open-label long-term design, to 40 adult patients suffering from complex partial seizures, with or without secondary generalization, whose response to carbamazepine (CBZ) monotherapy was unsatisfactory. A reference-baseline period of two months with carbamazepine monotherapy was followed by a two-month "add-on" period where increasing doses of progabide were added without modifying the CBZ regimen; then CBZ was withdrawn over 15-60 days and patients were followed up to 12 months' progabide treatment. Twenty-seven patients completed the trial but 12 of them had to be returned to CBZ + PGB bitherapy due to an increase of seizures following CBZ withdrawal. A definite therapeutic effect could be observed in nine patients on PGB monotherapy and in six patients on CBZ + PGB bitherapy. Side-effects of clinical relevance occurred in three cases and were represented by remarkable anxiety in two patients and a rise in serum glutamic oxalo-acetic acid and pyruvic transaminases with clinical symptoms of liver dysfunction in one, with rapid recovery following progabide discontinuation. In conclusion, progabide was effective against complex partial seizures in about 40% of patients not responding satisfactorily to available antiepileptic drugs. Although the withdrawal of previous antiepileptic drugs was not possible in all patients, progabide monotherapy was sometimes more effective than CBZ monotherapy, and several patients in whom bitherapy had to be restored benefited from the association of progabide.

Reciprocal interactions between α2-adrenoceptor agonist and neuropeptide Y binding sites in the nucleus tractus solitarius of the rat

Summary Interactions between a ₂-adrenoreceptor agonist and neuropeptide Y (NPY) binding sites have been studied in the rat medulla oblongata (MO) using biochemical binding techniques as well as quantitative autoradiography. Tritiated para-amino clonidine (³H-PAC; ₂-adrenoceptor agonist), idazoxan (³H-IDA; ₂-adrenoceptor antagonist) and iodinated neuropeptide Y (¹²⁵I-NPY) were used as radioligands. (1) Neuropeptide Y (NPY; 10^–8M) but not bovine pancreatic polypeptide (BPP) nor peptide YY (PYY 10nM) increased the K_D value of³H-PAC binding sites. However, intraventricular administration of a high dose of NPY (1.25nmol) did not change the³H-PAC binding characteristics in MO membrane preparations of these animals. (2) GTP 10^–4 lowered the affinity of³H-PAC binding. NPY (10 nM) had no additional effect, nor did NPYinfluence the GTP induced shift in potency of clonidine to displace³H-IDA from its binding sites. (3) In the autoradiographical experiments NPY (10nM) significantly reduced³H-PAC binding (2nM) in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) area by 35%. (4) When clonidine, either given centrally in vivo (3.75nmol) or in vitro (10 nM) the binding of¹²⁵I-NPY was reduced (34 and 24%, respectively) in the NTS. When the monoamine receptors were irreversibly blocked in vivo by N-ethoxycarbonyl-2-ethoxy-1,2-dihydroquinoline (EEDQ, 10 g i.e. 24h)¹²⁵I-NPY (0.5 nM) binding was increased by 137% in the NTS. This effect of EEDQ was prevented by pretreatment with the ₂-adrenoreceptor antagonist idazoxan.These results provide support for a direct intramembrane interaction between the ₂-receptor and the NPY receptor within the NTS and may be of importance in central cardiovascular regulation.     

Soman intoxication-induced changes in serum acute phase protein levels,corticosterone concentration and immunosuppressive potency of the serum

We have studied the effect of soman intoxication on serum acute phase reactants (APR) levels, and the relationship of the APR and corticosterone concentrations and the immunosuppressive activity of the serum. One day after the injection of 1.8 LD₅₀ soman the concentrations of ₂-macroglobulin (₂-MG) and ₁-acid glycoprotein (AGP) in the serum of antidote protected rats increased 4- and 7-fold, respectively, whereas those of hemopexin (Hx), haptoglobin (Hp) and cysteine protease inhibitor (CPI) were two to three times higher than in the controls. A similar magnitude of increase of serum acute phase reactants levels was observed when 0.3 LD₅₀ soman was administered at 24-h intervals over the 5-day period. The relationship of changes in the APR concentration, corticosterone level and immunosuppressive activity of the serum was also comparable to that observed in the acute phase response to tissue injury.     

Proanthocyanidin: a natural crosslinking reagent for stabilizing collagen matrices

While attempting to find a suitable crosslinking reagent for biopolymers, a naturally occurring proanthocyanidin (PA) obtained from grape seeds was selected to fix biological tissues. The cytotoxicity and crosslinking rate, reflected by the in vitro and in vivo degradation of fixed matrices has been studied. The shrinkage temperature of the fixed bovine pericardium increased from 66 to 86 degrees C. A cytotoxicity assay using fibroblast cultures revealed that PA is approximately 120 times less toxic than glutaraldehyde (GA), a currently used tissue stabilizer. In vitro degradation studies showed that fixed tissue was resistant to digestion by bacterial collagenase. Crosslinks between PA and tissues can be stabilized by decreasing the dielectric constant of the solution during storage. After subcutaneous implantation for periods ranging between 3 and 6 weeks, we found no apparent degradation of the GA- or PA-fixed tissues, whereas fresh tissue controls rapidly disintegrated. Beyond 6 weeks PA crosslinks began to degrade. More fibroblasts migrated and proliferated inside the PA-fixed implants compared with GA counterparts. Tissues crosslinked with PA manifested an enhanced collagen expression and deposition and did not calcify after implantation. GA, on the other hand, even after thorough rinsing continued to be cytotoxic, inhibited collagen synthesis and encouraged dystrophic calcification. Collagen matrices crosslinked with PA are expected to be of value in the design of matrices that will encourage cell ingrowth and proliferation, which are temporary in nature, and that are intended to regenerate or replace missing tissues, which can delay the biogradation of collagen. As such they should be of significant value in the emerging field of tissue engineering.     

The geographical distribution in Sweden of viruses belonging to the Russian spring-summer-louping Ill group

Conclusions NT antibodies to LI virus were found in the sera of Swedish cows from many parts of the country although only exceptionally in the north. The prevalence of positive specimens increased markedly towards the southeast. This geographic distribution apparently fits well with the occurrence of ticks in the country. An analysis, now in progress, of RSSE-LI antibodies in human cases of meningoencephalomyelitis seems to indicate a closely similar distribution of the human RSSE infections. It is thus obvious that the screening of cow sera for LI antibodies provides reliable information as to endemic regions of RSSE-LI-like viruses. There was nothing to suggest that nonspecific reactions occurred or impaired the results; in fact the very uneven geographic distribution of positive specimens, of high as well as low titers, should argue for specificity of the reaction.Aided by a grant from the Swedish National Association against Poliomyelitis.The skilful technical assistance of MissSiri Austrin, MissIngrid Lövhvist, MissBrita Gustafson and Mr.Nils Lundh is gratefully acknowledged.
