    Notes: Summary Serum high density lipoprotein cholesterol, total cholesterol, triglyceride and apolipoproteins A-I and B were studied at diagnosis and after 12 months conventional treatment in a group of Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetic patients. No significant deleterious effect on serum lipids and apolipoproteins was seen in any of the subgroups during the treatment period, although in the overall group there was a significant increase in serum total cholesterol in females. Serum high density lipoprotein cholesterol increased significantly in obese males treated with calorie restriction alone. There was a significant increase in serum apolipoprotein A-I in obese females treated with calorie restriction and metformin and in non-obese females treated with carbohydrate restriction and glibenclamide.

    Notes: Summary High-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels were decreased in patients with non-insulin dependent diabetes at diagnosis when matched with a control population for sex, age, obesity, alcohol consumption and cigarette smoking. There was no association between serum HDL-cholesterol concentration and the percentage of glycosylated haemoglobin A1 (HbA1). Serum HDL-cholesterol levels were lower in diabetics over the whole range of serum triglyceride levels, and particularly in hypertriglyceridaemic diabetics. Serum apolipoprotein A-I levels were not decreased in diabetics with normal serum triglyceride levels, so that the ratio of HDL cholesterol to apolipoprotein A-I was significantly decreased in diabetics (p〈0.005). Decreased HDL cholesterol levels in non-insulin dependent diabetes could be relevant to the subsequent development of atherosclerosis.

    Notes: Abstract Adult hooded rats exposed to a repeated maternal separation procedure during the neonatal period showed a blunted expression of locomotor hyperactivity conditioned to the presentation of the daily food ration. We have demonstrated that the expression of food-conditioned anticipatory hyperactivity is sensitive to the response-enhancing effects of systemicd-amphetamine (0.5; 1.0 mg/kg) and to the response-attenuating effects of the selective dopamine D2 antagonist sulpiride (8; 20 mg/kg), the selective dopamine D1 antagonist SCH 23390 (0.01; 0.022 mg/kg) and the mixed α1/α2 adrenoceptor agonist clonidine (5; 15 μg/kg) in a dose dependent manner. Animals from the early separation groups showed a reduced enhancement of activity in response to 0.5 mg/kgd-amphetamine and a greater attenuation of activity in response to 8 mg/kg sulpiride and 5 μg/kg clonidine. Female separated rats also exhibited an attenuated locomotor response to the unconditioned stimulant effects of 0.5 mg/kg systemicd-amphetamine. The experiments confirm that early maternal separation attenuates the response to conditioned appetitive cues in adult rats and implicate altered dopaminergic and noradrenergic function in the changes. It is possible that early maternal separation in the rat may offer a useful preparation for investigation of the neural substrates mediating affective development and affective psychopathology.
