    Notes: Summary In order to elucidate the phase specificity of the embryo-lethal and teratogenic action of actinomycin D (day 5–10 of gestation) rats received 3H-actinomycin D at different times of gestation. The distribution of the radioactivity in the fetus and the placenta was measured. Moreover, the effects of actinomycin D on the RNA polymerase reactions in isolated nuclei of the decidual and fetal tissue were studied. The biochemical results were correlated electron microscopically with specific alterations occurring in different structures of the total implantation sites. These studies show that the time-dependent embryo-lethal and teratogenic effects of actinomycin D result from a lesion of the embryo and the decidua. The effects of the decidua occur at an earlier time and are more pronounced as compared to those of the embryo. Since the decidua is significant for the nutrition of the embryo till closure of the yolk-sac and beginning of the yolk-sac circulation (day 10 of gestation), the direct effects of actinomycin D on the embryo are intensified by the lesion of the decidua. After day 10 of gestation till the beginning of the placental function 3H-actinomycin D passes over to the embryo. But the concentration-even after a dose of 1 mg/kg-does not suffice to inhibit in vivo RNA polymerase reactions in isolated nuclei.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung An narkotisierten Katzen wurde der Einfluß des Blut-pH auf die Toxicität herzwirksamer Glykoside untersucht. An isolierten Vorhofpräparaten wurden in Ergänzung hierzu Versuche mit Änderung des pH der Tyrodelösung durchgeführt. 1. An Katzen wird durch eine respiratorische Acidose (pH 7,0) die Toxicität des Digitoxins, Digoxins und k-Strophanthins signifikant erhöht; dabei ist die Toxicität des Digitoxins stärker erhöht als die des Digoxins und k-Strophanthins. 2. Vorbehandlung mit Reserpin oder Practolol vermindert die Toxicität des Digitoxins in Acidose wesentlich stärker als bei normalem pH. 3. Eine durch Tris-Infusion erzeugte Alkalose von pH 7,6 bewirkt keine Änderung, eine durch Infusion von NaHCO3 erzeugte Alkalose von pH 7,6 verursacht eine geringfügige Steigerung der Digitoxintoxicität. 4. Am isolierten Vorhofpräparat des Meerschweinchens ist die Toxicität des Digitoxins, Digoxins und k-Strophanthins bei pH-Werten der Tyrodelösung von 7,0 und 7,8 nicht signifikant verschieden.
    Notes: Summary In anaesthetized cats the influence of blood-pH on the toxicity of cardiac glycosides was studied. In isolated guinea pigs atrias further experiments were performed by changing the pH of the tyrode solution. 1. In cats with respiratory acidosis (pH 7.0) the toxicity of digitoxin, digoxin and k-strophanthin is enhanced — thereby the toxicity of digitoxin is more enhanced than that of digoxin and k-strophanthin. 2. Pretreatment with reserpine or practolol diminishes the toxicity of digitoxin in acidosis more than at normal blood-pH. 3. An alcalosis of pH 7.6, produced by the infusion of tris causes no change, an alcalosis of pH 7.6 produced by the infusion of NaHCO3 causes a small increase of the toxicity of digitoxin. 4. In the isolated guinea pigs atria the toxicity of digitoxin, digoxin and kstrophanthin is not different at pH 7.0 and 7.8 of the tyrode solution.
