    Notes: Summary The isolated perfused rat brain was used for a comparative study of the effects of promazine, imipramine, monodesmethyl promazine and desipramine on cerebral energy metabolism. After perfusion for 30 min or 1 h the brain levels of the following substrates and metabolites were estimated: P-creatine, creatine, ATP, ADP, AMP, glycogen, glucose, glucose-6-P, fructose diphosphate, dihydroxyacetone-P, pyruvate, lactate, α-ketoglutarate, and ammonia. Drug concentrations of 5·10−6 M and 10−5 M in the perfusion medium caused a significant decrease of glucose-6-P alone. When the drug concentration was raised to a toxic range (10−4 M), reflected in the EEG by the pattern of secondary discharges, an accumulation of P-creatine and glucose and a decrease of glycogen, glucose-6-P and ammonia occurred; the lactate/pyruvate ratios remained unchanged. As there were no qualitative differences between the effects of the investigated neuroleptics and antidepressants on cerebral metabolism, these effects might be unspecific and not correlated with the pharmacological action of the drugs.

    Notes: Summary The isolated perfused rat brain was used for a comparative study of the effects of chloral hydrate and trichloroethanol on cerebral energy metabolism. After a perfusion period of 30 min the brain levels of the following substrates and metabolites were measured spectrophotometrically: P-creatine, creatine, ATP, ADP, AMP, glycogen, glucose, glucose-6-P, fructose diphosphate, α-glycero-P, dihydroxyacetone-P, pyruvate, lactate, glutamate, α-ketoglutarate and ammonia. Furthermore, the concentration of chloral hydrate and trichloroethanol in the isolated brain and in the perfusion medium was measured colorimetrically. Little more than 10% of chloral hydrate in the isolated brain and in the perfusion medium were reduced to trichloroethanol. In intact animals there were about 70% of chloral hydrate transformed. Chloral hydrate and trichloroethanol caused an accumulation of P-creatine, no change in the lactate/pyruvate ratio, an increase of the glucose concentration and a decrease of glucose-6-P level in the isolated brain. The rise of brain glucose level was more pronounced after trichloroethanol than after chloral hydrate. The effects of chloral hydrate and trichloroethanol on brain glucose and glucose-6-P levels suggest an inhibition of brain hexokinase activity by these drugs.

    Notes: Abstract The aim of the study was to analyze p53 gene mutations and the expression of p53 and mdm2 proteins in 31 randomly selected invasive breast carcinomas. The results were then correlated with tumor grade, stage, estrogen receptor status, nodal status, and DNA ploidy. The expression of the proteins p53 and mdm2 was determined immunohistochemically using formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded material. Screening for p53 mutation involved analysis of the highly conserved regions of the p53 gene (exons 5–9) by the polymerase chain reaction/single-strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) technique. PCR products with band shifts were directly sequenced. Immunohistochemical staining of p53 was positive in 9 cases (29.0 %), only 2 of which showed a p53 gene mutation. These were identified as a C→G transversion at the second position of codon 278 in exon 8 and an A→G transition at the second position of codon 205 in exon 6. A third case with a mutation was observed (C→T transition, position 1 of codon 250 in exon 7) that did not show p53 immunohistochemically. Of the 9 p53-positive tumors, 2 were moderately differentiated (grade II). The remaining tumors were poorly differentiated (7/9). By contrast, p53-negative carcinomas were well differentiated (grade I) in most cases (P = 0.02). DNA cytometry in 8 of the 9 p53-positive carcinomas revealed an aneuploid stem line. The majority of the p53-negative tumors were diploid (P = 0.01). Mdm2 oncoprotein was detected in 10 tumors (32.2 %), 4 of which were p53-positive, including the 3 with mutations. The grading of the mdm2-positive tumors was moderate or poor, G1 carcinomas were always noted to be mdm2-negative (P = 0.04). Overexpression of p53 protein is a complex mechanism and does not merely indicate the detection of mutations in the p53 gene. This study has shown that p53 expression correlates with tumor grade and DNA ploidy. Mdm2 expression was also associated with the tumor grade. Immunohistological demonstration of the p53 protein alone is insufficient as a basis for comment on the functional state of the p53 gene and gene product. The interrelation between recognition of the p53 protein and gene mutation needs more careful assessment to define their roles in the control of neoplasia.

    Notes: Summary The effects of glucose concentrations in the perfusion medium ranging from 5 to 15 mM and thiopental, on cerebral energy metabolism were studied using the isolated perfused rat brain. After a perfusion time of 30 min brain levels of the following substrates and metabolites were determined: P-creatine, ATP, ADP, AMP, glycogen, glucose, glucose-6-P, fructose-6-P, pyruvate, lactate, α-ketoglytarate, glutamate, ammonia. In control experiments increasing the glucose concentration in the perfusion medium produced an increase of intracellular brain glucose concentration only, revealing a linear relationship between glucose content in brain and blood. Neither high-energy phosphates nor glycolytic intermediates were markedly affected by the changes in blood glucose. With an anesthetic dose of thiopental (0.15 mM) in the perfusion medium identical metabolic alterations occurred in all experiments: P-creatine and glucose were significantly increased whereas ADP, AMP, lactate and pyruvate were diminished. Also with thiopental brain glucose was linearly related with the glucose concentration in the perfusion medium. The calculated regression line was apparently parallel with that from control experiments; that means thiopental always caused an elevation of brain glucose by the same amount of 0.9 μmoles/g—irrespective of the initial cerebral glucose content. The results yield further evidence that glucose transport is not the rate-limiting step in glycolysis. The action of thiopental on glycolytic pathway is discussed.

    Notes: Summary The concentrations of P-creatine, creatine, ATP, ADP, AMP, glycogen, glucose, glucose-6-P, fructose diphosphate, dihydroxyacetone-P, α-glycero-P, lactate and pyruvate were measured in the isolated perfused rat brain as well as in rat brain in vivo. Similar levels were observed in the isolated brain and in intact animals, and the values measured were in good accordance with those described in the literature. Only the pyruvate and lactate content were significantly higher in the isolated brain but the lactate/pyruvate ratio remained unchanged. An anesthetic or ischemia caused just the same effects on energy metabolism of the isolated rat brain as described for intact animals. Thus, 1.5 mM phenobarbital in the perfusion medium produced a statistically significant increase in P-creatine and glucose levels as well as a decrease of pyruvate, lactate and α-glycero-P levels. After ischemia of the isolated brain the concentrations of high-energy phosphates, glycogen, glucose, and pyruvate fell considerably concomitantly with significant accumulations of creatine, AMP, α-glycero-P and lactate. The results indicate that the isolated perfused rat brain may be a useful tool for studying cerebral metabolism.

    Notes: Summary Cerebral energy metabolism was studied in the isolated perfused rat brain after 6-aminonicotinamide (6-AN; 35 mg/kg i.p.) administered to the intact animals 7 hrs before perfusion was started. The metabolic alterations in the isolated rat brains were such as reported for rat and mouse brain in vivo: Inhibition of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase was followed by an accumulation of 6-phosphogluconate, leading to a decreased activity of glucosephosphate isomerase. This was reflected by increased levels of glucose and glucose 6-phosphate and decreased levels of fructose 6-phosphate, pyruvate and lactate. Since the concentration of lactate in the perfusate of the isolated brain was also lowered, 6-AN must have reduced the glycolytic flux rate.

    Notes: Abstract The cross sections for Bhabha and Møller scattering have been investigated in the energy range 2.1–2.4 MeV using monoenergetic positrons and electrons to search for hypothetical resonances superimposed to the continuum predicted by quantum electro dynamics. Bhabba-to-Mott, Møller-to-Mott and Møller-to-Bhabha cross section ratios were measured. The Bhabha-to-Mott ratios could be determined with statistical errors of typically 1% and remaining systematic errors not exceeding the statistical ones. No resonances in Bhabha scattering were observed. Limits for the intrinsic widths of hypothetical resonances are given. For the first time upper limits are deduced from our data for hypothetical resonances in the Møller scattering cross section in the MeV range. Additionally, Møller-to-Bhabha cross section ratios could be determined with good precision. A good agreement between the experimental and theoretical Møller-to-Bhabha ratios can be stated calling in question the recently predicted existence of series of narrow, unresolvable resonances in the Bhabha scattering cross section.
