    Notes: Summary The interaction of the carbostyril derivatives 5-[2-[[1-(4-aminophenyl)-2-methyl-prop-2-yl]amino]-1-hydroxyethyl]-8-hydroxycarbostyril (carbo-amine) and 5-[2[[3-[4-(bromoacetamido)phenyl]-2-methylprop-2-yl]amino]1-hydroxyethyl]-8-hydroxycarbostryril (carbo-Br) with the rat reticulocyte beta-adrenoreceptor system has been partially characterized. In the absence of a guanine nucleotide, the concentration of carbo-amine, carbo-Br and (−)isoprenaline that inhibited (−)-[125I]iodocyanopindolol ([125I]CYP) binding by 50% (IC50) was 5.9 ± 0.2, 3.3 ± 0.3 and 49 ± 3 nM, respectively. In the presence of a guanine nucleotide, the (IC50) values were carbo-amine, 21 ± 0.6 nM; carbo-Br, 7.6 ± 0.3 nM and (−)isoprenaline, 813 ± 66 nM. Preincubation of membranes with either of the carbostyril congeners followed by washing reduced specific [125I]CYP binding capacity without changing the K D value for the remaining receptors. The beta-antagonist nadolol largely prevented the receptor reduction induced by the carbostyril compounds. Incubation of membranes for 18 It at 25°C resulted in an 11 % recovery of the carbo-amine-induced receptor loss and no recovery of the receptors lost by preincubation with carbo-Br. However, the carbo-amine induced receptor loss could be largely reversed (80%) by membrane heating at 45°C whereas little reversal (〈 10%) was observed with the carbo-Br pretreated membranes. The concentration of carbo-amine, carbo-Br and (−)isoprenaline that stimulated halt-maximal cAMP formation in reticulocyte membranes was 17.8 ± 3.1, 8.2 ± 2.1 and 241 ± 17 nM, respectively, and all 3 agonists produced the same maximal response. Initial cAMP formation stimulated by the carbostyril derivatives and (−)isoprenaline was blocked by concurrent addition of propranolol. However, the addition of propranolol after 7 min of incubation with either of the two carbostyril derivatives did not affect further cAMP production whereas with (−)isoprenaline further cAMP production was blocked. The data indicate that both carbostyril-derivatives are potent, full beta-adrenoreceptor agonists and the carbo-amine bound to the beta-adrenoreceptor in a tight, slowly dissociating manner whereas carbo-Br binding shows an apparent irreversible interaction with the receptor.

    Notes: Abstract The false-negative rate of barium enema examinations for the recognition of polypoid sigmoid cancer was evaluated in 167 patients with histologically proven carcinoma. The cases were classified according to the coexistence of sigmoid diverticula. In patients with less than 15 diverticula, 3.1% of lesions were missed, while in those with more than 15 diverticula, 20.4% of tumors were undetected. The overall error rate was 7.2%. Extensive diverticulosis is an important factor limiting the sensitivity of barium enema examinations for the evaluation of sigmoid masses.

    Notes: Abstract Intramural perforation of the colon proximal to the rectosigmoid is a rare complication of the barium enema examination. We present a case in which air and barium entered the wall of the transverse colon, and then dissected through the transverse mesocolon during double-contrast barium enema in an asymptomatic patient with no known underlying colonic disease.
