    Notes: Summary The influence of tracheal lavage in a restricted area, with a proteolytic enzyme (Pronase) on the bronchial response to challenge with ACH and AE was studied in 15 dogs. Histamine concentrations measured in the tracheal liquid after lavage with Pronase were smaller than the values after tracheal lavage with allergen. Airway response to ACH inhalation was significantly increased after tracheal lavage with Pronase. Effects of proteolytic enzymes and allergens on the tracheal wall are compared. Allergens and proteolytic enzymes evidence a different mode of action in increasing reactivity of peripheral airways.

    Notes: Summary The influence of tracheal lavage with an allergen on the airway response to bronchial challenge with histamine, acetylcholine, and ascaris extract was investigated in 36 dogs. High histamine concentrations were measured in the tracheal solution after lavage with allergen. This amine, released on the mucosal surface, was observed in only very small concentrations in the circulation. Airway response to acetylcholine inhalation was significantly increased after tracheal lavage with allergen. This hyperreactivity of the lower airways induced by tracheal lavage with an allergen suggests that a reflex mechanism is involved. After histamine inhalation a significantly larger antigen-induced histamine release to tracheal lumen was observed. No influence on airway response was found after tracheal lavage with H2O.

    Notes: Summary The influence of tracheal lavage with compound 48/80 on the bronchial response to challenge with ACH and AE was studied in 24 animals. Furthermore, the effect of i.v. administration of 48/80 was compared to its administration into the tracheal lumen. No increased histamine liberation was detected in the tracheal fluid after lavage with 48/80, nor was an influence on the bronchial response observed. These observations were the same as those described for tracheal lavage with water. The same amounts of this secretagogue induced, after i.v. administration, a high histamine release which correlates significantly with blood pressure decrease.

    Notes: Summary The influence of tracheal lavage with histamine, and of i.v. administration of histamine on bronchospastic response was studied in 16 dogs. Airway response to acetylcholine inhalation was significantly increased after tracheal lavage with high concentrated histamine solution (1%). No influence on airway response was found after (1) tracheal lavage with lower concentrations of histamine and (2) its i.v. administration. The clinical importance of these manifestations is discussed.

    Identification of the DNA damage-responsive elements of the rhp51 + gene, a recA and RAD51 homolog from the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe (1996)

    Notes: Abstract The Schizosaccharomyces pombe rhp51 + gene encodes a recombinational repair protein that shares significant sequence identities with the bacterial RecA and the Saccharomyces cerevisiae 1RAD51 protein. Levels of rhp51 + mRNA increase following several types of DNA damage or inhibition of DNA synthesis. An rhp51:: ura4 fusion gene was used to identify the cis-acting promoter elements involved in regulating rhp51 + expression in response to DNA damage. Two elements, designated DRE1 and DRE2 (for damage-responsive element), match a decamer consensus URS (upstream repressing sequence) found in the promoters of many other DNA repair and metabolism genes from S. cerevisiae. However, our results show that DRE1 and DRE2 each function as a UAS (upstream activating sequence) rather than a URS and are also required for DNA-damage inducibility of the gene. A 20-bp fragment located downstream of both DRE1 and DRE2 is responsible for URS function. The DRE1 and DRE2 elements cross-competed for binding to two proteins of 45 and 59 kDa. DNase I footprint analysis suggests that DRE1 and DRE2 bind to the same DNA-binding proteins. These results suggest that the DRE-binding proteins may play an important role in the DNA-damage inducibility of rhp51 + expression.

    Notes: Abstract Responses of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPCase) to an elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration were determined along with net CO2 uptake rates for the Crassulacean acid metabolism species Opuntia ficus-indica growing in open-top chambers. During the spring 13 months after planting, total daily net CO2 uptake of basal and first-order daughter cladodes was 28% higher at 720 than at 360 μl CO2 l-1. The enhancement, caused mainly by higher CO2 assimilation during the early part of the night, was also observed during late summer (5 months after planting) and the following winter. The activities of Rubisco and PEPCase measured in vitro were both lower at the elevated CO2 concentration, particularly under the more favorable growth conditions in the spring and late summer. Enzyme activity in second-order daughter cladodes increased with cladode age, becoming maximal at 6 to 10 days. The effect ofelevated CO2 on Rubisco and PEPCase activity declined with decreasing irradiance, especially for Rubisco. Throughout the 13-month observation period, O. ficus-indica thus showed increased CO2 uptake when the atmospheric CO2 concentration was doubled despite lower activities of both carboxylating enzymes.

    Recovery of photosynthetic reactions after high-temperature treatments of a heat-tolerant cactus (1988)

    Notes: Abstract Inhibition and recovery of net CO2 uptake and three photosynthetic electron transport reactions as well as plant survival following high-temperature treatments were investigated for Opuntia ficus-indica. For plants maintained at 30°C/20°C day/night air temperatures, treatment at 60°C for 1 h irreversibly inhibited net CO2 uptake and photosynthetic electron transport, resulting in plant death in about 60 days. When a plant maintained at 30°C/20°C was treated at 55°C for 1 h, net CO2 uptake was completely inhibited 1 d after the treatment but fully recovered in 60 d. Differential inactivation of photosystem (PS) I, PSII, and whole chain electron transport activities occurred; PSI was the most tolerant of 55°C and took the least time (45 d) for total recovery. All 30°C/20°C plants survived a 1-h treatment at 55°C, although some pale green areas were observed on the cladode surfaces. In contrast to growing at 30°C/20°C, plants acclimated to 45°C/35°C survived 60°C for 1 h without showing any necrotic or pale green areas on the cladode surfaces. When such a plant was transferred to 30°C/20°C following the high-temperature treatment, recovery in net CO2 uptake began in 1 d and progressed to complete recovery by 30 d. Growth temperatures thus influence the possibility for recovery of photosynthetic reactions and ultimately the survival of O. ficus-indica following a high-temperature exposure.

    Description / Table of Contents: Influence of grain size on mechanical properties and dry oscillating sliding wear of Al2O3-ceramicsSpecimens with average grain sizes varying between about 0.8 μm and 12 μm were produced by cold isostatic pressing of high purity Al2O3-powder followed by sintering between 1300°C and 1700°C. Hardness, Young's modulus, bending strength and fracture toughness were measured as a function of average grain sizes. Tribological tests were carried out on the different microstructures at normal laboratory air and room temperature by using a ring-on-block tribometer.Experimental results showed the dependence of mechanical properties on grain size, hardness and bending strength obeying a Hall-Petch type relation, approximately. Coefficient of friction was relatively independent of grain size under the test conditions used. However, wear intensity increased substantially if a critical grain size was surpassed. This was due to a change in mechanisms of material removal which was confirmed by scanning electron microscopical studies of the worn surfaces.
    Notes: Aus hochreinem Al2O3-Pulver wurden durch kaltisostatisches Pressen und Variation der Sintertemperatur zwischen 1300°C und 1700°C Formkörper mit unterschiedlichen mittleren Korngrößen zwischen etwa 0,8 und 12 μm hergestellt. Untersucht wurde der Einfluß der Korngröße auf mechanische und tribologische Eigen-schaften.Die Ergebnisse zeigten, daß mechanische Eigenschaften wie Härte, E-Modul, Biegebruchfestigkeit und Bruchzähigkeit von der Korngröße bzw. den Sintertemperaturen abhingen, wobei im Fall der Härte und Bruchfestigkeit näiherungsweise eine Hall-Peteh-Beziehung vorlag. Während die Reibungszahl relativ unabhängig von der Korngröße war, trat in der Verschleißintensität aufgrund geänderter Mechanismen ein starker Anstieg mit zunchmender Korngröße auf. Rasterelektronenmikroskopische Untersuchungen zeigten, daß der Verschleiß durch plastische Verformung, Mikrobruch, Kornfragmentierung und Deckschichten beeinflußt wurde.

    Notes: The response properties of a new thiocyanate-selective solvent-polymeric membrane electrode are reported. The membrane contains (5,10,15,20-tetrakis(2,4,6-triphenylphenyl)porphyrinato)manganese(III) chloride (Mn[TPPP]CI) in a plasticized polyvinyl chloride matrix. The electrode deviates from the Hofmeister selectivity pattern by responding to thiocyanate preferentially over inorganic anions (perchlorate, chloride, iodide, and bromide) and several organic anions often present in biological samples (ascorbate, citrate, urate, and salicylate). The performance of this electrode as an ion-selective detector in a low-dispersion, flow-injection system is also evaluated. While selectivity in such a nonequilibrium flow arrangement is found to be somewhat different than that observed under equilibrium conditions, the electrode's response and selectivity is still adequate to allow for measurement of thiocyanate in biological samples. This application is demonstrated via the flow-injection analysis (FIA) detection of thiocyanate in 22 human saliva samples with good correlation to a classical colorimetric method (r = 0.981).
