    Notes: Summary Various endocrine and metabolic disturbances associated with long standing uremia persist after kidney transplantation or arise from the use of immunosuppressive drugs. Hyperlipidemia for long time being implicated as the cause of corticosteroids is also observed in renal transplant recipients treated with cyclosporin A monotherapy. After conversion from cyclosporin to azathioprine serum cholesterol and triglyceride concentration fall, and elevation of LDL-cholesterol may also be reversed. There is a tendency for higher HDL-cholesterol in azathioprine and prednisolone treated transplant patients. Those patients who are at risk for clinically significant cholesterol elevations can be predicted by their pretransplant lipid levels, specifically the LDL-fraction. Risk-benefit ratio of conversion and of treatment with lipid-lowering drugs, especially with lovastatin, should be carefully examined, also in view of glucose intolerance. Higher incidence of diabetes mellitus requiring insulin therapy in cyclosporin treated transplant recipients has been reported. Cyclosporin may cause toxic effects on pancreatic beta-cells resulting in inhibition of insulin secretion. High doses of cyclosporin induce inhibition of glycogen synthesis in rat liver. Glucose intolerance is reversible after reduction of cyclosporin dose or conversion to azathioprine. Therefore glucose metabolism in kidney transplant recipients treated with cyclosporin should be carefully followed. Immunosuppressive therapy may affect reproductive function, arachidonate metabolism and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system as well as posttransplant calcium and phophate metabolism. Endocrine and metabolic abnormalities are associated with long standing uremia. After successful kidney transplantation several observations are normalized but further complications arise from the use of immunosuppressive drugs. The present paper reviews various endocrine and metabolic disturbances described following renal transplantation.

    Notes: Abstract Investigations were carried out by means of an autologous, heterotopic model for kidney transplantation applied to dogs. Duration of cold ischemia was 48 h. Four experimental groups were arranged. During the first 20 min following revitalization of the transplanted kidney, group 1 (HTK solution/80 cm perfusion height) showed a significant glomerular and tubular malfunction. In group 2 (HTK solution/120 cm perfusion height), only four urinary proteins with molecular weights of 25 kDa, 67 kDa, 100 kDa and 〉100 kDa were found. The excretion of higher molecular proteins receded over the 20-min period of observation. In both group 3 (HTK/aspartate solution) and group 4 (HTK/tryptophan solution) the quantity of excreted glomerular and tubular protein was well above that of group 2. As opposed to the “Tryptophan” group, a complete restoration of renal function was observed in the “Aspartate” group after 4 weeks. In general, the “standard” HTK protective solution delivered with 120 cm perfusion pressure gave the most favorable results, with the lowest levels of proteinuria and a satisfactory recovery of renal function after revitalization.

    Notes: Abstract Abstract We report on a 13-month old boy with microcephalic osteodysplastic primordial dwarfism (MOPD), whose radiographic signs correspond with type II of this entity. Some of his clinical signs, such as the anomalies of the external genitalia and the urinary tract, are common to this subgroup of MOPD, but he also shows unusual clinical signs including bilateral knee dislocation and hypoplasia of the anterior corpus callosum. His clinical course was unusual with several episodes of breathing difficulties and increased intracranial pressure secondary to craniosynostosis at the age of 16 months. After fronto-orbital advancement for the treatment of brachycephaly, his psychomotor development improved remarkably. Conclusion MOPD type II may have a wider range of expression than previously delineated.

    Notes: Liquid Crystals with Aliphatic Groups between Cyclohexane Rings - Synthesis of 1,4-Bis(4-n-alkylcyclohexyl)butanes and Esters of 4-[4-(4-n-Alkylcyclohexyl)-butyl]cyclohexanolsThe synthesis of 1,4-bis-(4-n-alkylcyclohexyl) butanes (1), esters of 4-[-(4-n-alkylcyclohexyl)butyl]cyclohexanols (2) and some analogous aromatic compounds are described. The thermal stability of mesophases of these compounds are in the order of the analogous ethylene-bridged liquid crystals. The reason for this result seems to be the combination of molecular rigidity and conformational flexibility.

    Description / Table of Contents: Studies on Oxide Catalysts. XLIV. Modification of the Catalytic Behavior of Modified ZSM-5 Zeolites by Thermal TreatmentThe catalytic activity, the shape selectivity, and the deactivation behavior of ZSM-5 in paraffin cracking reactions can be regulated by a thermal pretreatment. A minimum of the deactivation rate as a function of zeolite pretreatment time at 600°C found in the hexane cracking could be verified in the methanol conversion reaction to gasoline.
    Notes: Die katalytische Aktivität, die Formselektivität und das Aktivität-Zeit-Verhalten des ZSM-5 beim Spalten von Paraffinen kann durch thermische Vorbehandlung stark beeinflußt werden. Ein in der Spaltung von Hexan gefundenes Minimum der Desaktivierungsgeschwindigkeit als Funktion der Dauer der Vorbehandlung bei 600°C konnte in der Methanolumwandlung zu Benzin verifiziert werden.

    Description / Table of Contents: Studies on Oxide Catalysts. XXXVII. On the Influence of Preparation Conditions on the Properties of Silica-AluminaSilica-alumina samples of different composition were prepared by coprecipitation from aqueous solutions at pH = 6 and pH = 9, respectively. Structures and properties of the solids were characterized (i.r., DTA, X-ray, molybdato method, surface acidity, catalytic activity in the cracking reaction of cumene). Solid composition and pH value of the precipitation medium equally exhibit influence on the structure of the silica-alumina (kind of incorporation of the aluminium) and thereby on the acidic and catalytic properties of the solids. Silica-alumina of equal composition but precipitated at different pH values may widely differ in their properties including activity-composition dependency.
    Notes: Durch Mischfällung wurden aus wäßrigem Medium bei pH = 6 bzw. pH = 9 röntgenamorphe Al2O3—SiO2-Festkörper unterschiedlicher Zusammensetzung hergestellt. Aufbau und Eigenschaften der Festkörper wurden charakterisiert (IR, DTA, Röntgendiffraktometrie, Molybdatmethode, Oberflächenacidität, katalytische Aktivität in der Spaltung von Cumen). Zusammensetzung und pH-Wert des Fällmediums beeinflussen gleichermaßen den Aufbau des Al2O3—SiO2 (Art des Einbaus des Aluminiums) und damit dessen acide und katalytische Eigenschaften. Al2O3—SiO2-Proben gleicher Zusammensetzung können unterschiedliche Eigenschaften aufweisen, wenn sie bei unterschiedlichen pH-Werten gefällt wurden. Das trifft auch auf die Form der Abhängigkeit der katalytischen Aktivität von der Zusammensetzung zu.
