    Notes: 2,4(1H,3H)-Quinazolinediones 3a-c, lumazine (3d) and thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione (8) were silylated and condensed with methyl 2,3-dideoxy-3-fluoro-5-O-(4-phenylbenzoyl)-β-D-erythro-pentofuranoside (2) by using trimethylsilyl triflate as a catalyst to afford the corresponding cyclic nucleosides 4 and 9 and acyclic nucleosides 5 and 10. Removal of the protecting group from the glycon moiety was achieved in good yields by treatment with sodium methoxide in methanol at room temperature. The new FLT analogues were devoid of activity against HIV-1 and HSV-1.

    Notes: Although there is a recent increase in the use of the isolated pancreatic islets of the rat in the transplantation and functional studies, there has been no detailed quantitative assessment on the size and cellular constituents of islets after the isolation procedure. The present work was undertaken to study the size classes of the isolated islets and the morphometry of their cellular populations.Islets of the rat pancreas were isolated by using the intraductal collagenase digestion technique, the most commonly used procedure for the isolation of pancreatic islets. Different endocrine cells of the isolated islets were stained by immunoperoxidase staining techniques. The distribution of the cellular constituents of the isolated islets was similar to that of the intact islets of the normal pancreas; A, D, and PP cells were peripherally arranged around the centrally located B cells. However, morphometric quantitative study showed that the percent volume and percent number of A, D, and PP cells of the isolated islets were lower than those of the corresponding intact ones. Further, the mean true diameter of the isolated islets was lower than that of the intact ones. These data indicate loss of islet cells during the process of isolation. Most of the lost cells were from the periphery of islets. This may provide an explanation for the incomplete metabolic control and recurrence of hyperglycemia encountered after isolated islet transplantation in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. It seems that further refinements of the isolation techniques are necessary to obtain islet tissue with total cellular integrity, before a complete success in transplantation could be achieved. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: WCB6F1 mice of the genotype S1/S1d did not form transient 5-day endogenous spleen colonies following midlethal irradiation, either spontaneously or in response to postirradiation bleeding. Their hematologically normal (+/+) littermates produced colonies equivalent in number and morphologic type to a normal strain (D2B6F1), as evaluated by both macroscopic and microscopic criteria. Bone marrow cells from S1/S1d mice, when transplanted into lethally irradiated +/+ mice, were able to generate equivalent numbers of transient endogenous spleen colonies (TE-CFUs), as compared to that obtained when syngeneic +/+ marrow cells were injected into lethally irradiated +/+ recipients. A defective growth of an early class of hematopoietic progenitor cells, resulting in the clinical course of the S1/S1d anemia is suggested and confirms previous reports on the microenvironmental nature of this abnormality.

    Notes: Human preimplantation embryos secrete platelet-activating factor (PAF), which stimulates prostaglandin E2 synthesis from secretory endometrium. This study investigated the action of PAF on phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (Ptdlns(4,5)P2)-specific phospholipase C activity in human endometrium. Slices of normal endometrium were incubated with 5 μCi/ml myo-[2-3H] inositol for 3 h at 37°C in 95% O2 and 5% CO2 to label tissue phosphoinositides. Inositol phosphates were extracted using trichloroacetic acid precipitation and diethylether neutralization and production was measured using Dowex 1-X8 anion-exchange column chromatography. PAF induced rapid and concentration-dependent accumulation of inositol phosphates (IP) from secretory endometrium, but had no effect on endometrium removed in the proliferative phase of the menstrual cycle. The IP3 fraction was significantly elevated from a median value of 14.0 c.p.m. mg-1 dry wt [range: 8-41 c.p.m. mg-1 dry wt] to 28.0 c.p.m. mg-1 dry wt [range: 11-87 c.p.m. mg-1 dry wt, P 〈 0.002] following 1 min exposure of secretory endometrium to PAF-acether, in the presence of 10 mM LiCl. PAF-induced hydrolysis of Ptdlns(4,5)P2 was inhibited by the specific PAF receptor antagonist WEB 2086, in a dose-dependent manner (P 〈 0.02), indicating that in human endometrium Ptdlns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis is mediated via a PAF receptor. These results indicate that PAF receptor coupling activates endometrial Ptdlns(4,5)P2-specific phospholipase C only in the secretory phase of the menstrual cycle, suggesting that the PAF response may be under ovarian steroid regulation. It is proposed that the ability of the endometrium to respond to PAF appears to be a feature of the preparation of this tissue for implantation and that the second messengers generated may play a role in cellular processes involved in the maternal recognition of very early human pregnancy. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The reaction of silylated 6-substituted uracils 5 with methyl 2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-α-D-arabinofuranoside (3) in the presence of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (TMS triflate) afforded a mixture of the corresponding protected N1,N3-bis(arabinofuranosyl)uracils 6 and the 6-substituted 2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-α-D-arabinofuranosyluracils 8. Deprotection of 6 and 8 gave the corresponding α nucleosides 7 and 9. The reaction of silylated 6-ethyl- and 6-methylthiouracil with 3 afforded a mixture of S- and N3-glycosides 10 and 11. The glycosides 10 were deblocked by treatment with methanolic ammonia to obtain the deprotected α nucleosides 12.

    Notes: 5-Formyl-1-(2,3,5-tri-O-acetyl-β-D-ribofuranosyl)uracil (4) was synthesized from 5-formyluracil (2) and 1,2,3,5-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-ribofuranose (3) and condensed with 2-thiohydantoin derivatives 5 by using piperidine as the catalyst to give 5-(uridin-5-ylmethylene)-2-thiohydantoin (8a) and 3-phenyl-5-(uridin-5-ylmethylene)-2-thiohydantoin (8b) after deprotection with sodium methoxide in methanol. Compound 8a was also obtained in an inversed reaction sequence from 5-formyluracil starting with condensation with 2-thiohydantoin and then with 3. The compounds 8a and 8b did not show any activity against HSV-1 or HIV-1.
