    Notes: Abstract A two-choice discrimination task was used to evaluate the effects of psychoactive drugs on the discriminative stimulus properties of brain self-stimulation in rats. In these experiments, brain stimulation served both as a discriminative stimulus and as a reinforcing stimulus, but the two effects were manipulated separately. Animals were trained to a criterion of 95% correct in choosing between two levers, and when this levels of accuracy was reached, the ability to choose correctly remained stable over an 8-month period. Increasing the current strength of the discriminative stimulus from zero to 100% of the training current produced a graded increase in the number of trials completed on the appropriate lever. The discriminative effects produced by brain stimulation were evaluated pharmacologically by using three prototypical psychoactive drugs in an attempt to change the detection threshold for the discriminative stimulus. Morphine, d-amphetamine, and haloperidol, drugs that reliably alter reinforcement thresholds for brain stimulation, failed to change detection thresholds. These results demonstrated that: (1) brain stimulation produces potent and reliable discriminative effects and (2) the effects of psychoactive drugs on detection thresholds can be dissociated from their effects on reinforcement thresholds for brain stimulation.

    Notes: Abstract Rats were implanted with stimulating electrodes aimed either at the medial forebrain bundle-lateral hypothalamus (MFB-LH) or the midbrain-central gray (MID-GG), and were trained to lever-press for brain self-stimulation on a fixed ratio: 15 schedule of reinforcement. The dose-dependent effects of morphine (0.1–3.0 mg/kg), naloxone (0.1–30 mg/kg), and naltrexone (0.1–30 mg/kg) were then determined during 1 h test sessions. Both naloxone and naltrexone decreased the rate of responding in the MFB-LH as well as in the MID-CG. However, decrements in response rates were produced in the MID-CG by both naloxone and naltrexone at one tenth the doses required to produce similar decrements with electrodes in the MFB-LH. Dose-dependent decreases in response rates produced by morphine occurred at the same doses in the two electrode sites. At both sites, the decreases in response rates produced by the highest dose of morphine were antagonized completely by a low dose of naloxone (0.1 mg/kg). At an intermediate dose of naloxone (1.0 mg/kg), antagonism occurred in the MFB-LH but not in the MID-CG. At a high dose of naloxone (10 mg/kg), a depression in lever-pressing occurred at both sites in the morphine-treated animal indicating that the depressive action predominated over antagonism. These data explain the lack of consistency of the effects of naloxone on brain self-stimulation previously reported by different laboratories, and demonstrate that the use of partial reinforcement schedules in a rational approach to the evaluation of opioid effects on brain self-stimulation behavior.

    Interactions of naloxone with morphine, amphetamine and phencyclidine on fixed interval responding for intracranial self-stimulation in rats (1990)

    Notes: Abstract Rats were implanted with stimulating electrodes aimed at the medial forebrain bundle-lateral hypothalamus (MFB-LH) and were trained to lever-press for brain self-stimulation on a fixed interval: 60 s schedule of reinforcement. The effects of graded doses of naloxone (0.1–30 mg/kg), morphine (0.3–5.6 mg/kg), naloxone plus morphine,d-amphetamine (0.03–1.0 mg/kg), naloxone plusd-amphetamine, phencyclidine (0.3–5.6 mg/kg), and naloxone plus phencyclidine were tested. Naloxone produced a significant decrease in rates at 30 mg/kg. Naloxone (0.1–1.0 mg/kg) plus morphine blocked the dose-dependent decrease produced by morphine alone. In contrast, naloxone (1.0–10 mg/kg) plusd-amphetamine attenuated the graded increase in response rates produced byd-amphetamine. Naloxone (1.0–10 mg/kg) plus phencyclidine did not reliably change the increase in response rates produced by phencyclidine alone. The use of the fixed interval schedule of brain self-stimulation to study these drug interactions is novel, and further demonstrates that the highly reinforcing aspects of brain stimulation, known to be influenced by dopamine, may also be modulated by the endogenous opiate system.

    Notes: Mixtures of both synthetic and naturally occurring (human plasma) cholesteryl esters have been examined by capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). A magnetic sector mass spectrometer was used and a variety of ionization modes were assessed with a view to obtaining structural information on intact cholesteryl esters. By employing ammonia as reagent gas, with negative ion scanning, spectra were produced from which the nature of steryl and fatty acyl moieties could be readily deduced. Analyses were performed at an ion source temperature of 300°C in order to maintain the integrity of the gas chromatographic profile. The technique described is of general use for the GC/MS analysis of steryl esters, particularly in conjunction with magnetic sector instruments.

    Notes: An azurin, a small respiratory copper protein from the bacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens biotype G, has been studied by mass spectrometry to determine sequence information. The study of homologously related proteins by mass spectiometry is particularly attractive, since the correct nature of major parts of the deduced sequences can be confirmed by comparison with the sequences of the protein from related organisms. An oxidized tryptohan residue has been identified amongst the products from a cyanogen bromide digest of this wild type azurin. In the same digest, a product is also found to arise from cleavage of the peptide chain at the C-terminal side of the same tryptophan residue. These results are rationalized.

    High-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry with thermospray lonization of free ecdysteroids (1993)

    Notes: High-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS) with thermospray ionization has been applied to the analysis of free ecdysteroids (polyhydroxylated steroids that serve as arthropod moulting hormones). Of a range of analytical conditions that were tested, optimum results were obtained by the use of re versed-phase HPLC using a methanol + water mixture containing 0.1 M ammonium acetate. The positive-ion spectra of ecdysteroids showed pseudo-molecular ions, [M + H]+, and fragment ions corresponding to the sequential losses of hydroxyl groups. The [M + H - H2O]+ and [M + H - H2O]+ ions were the most abundant for all the compounds tested. Ecdysteroids bearing a C-20 hydroxyl group (e.g. 20-hydroxyecdysone) showed ions characteristic of cleavage of the side-chain from the steroid nucleus. This mode of fragmentation was much less obvious in the case of ecdysteroids lacking C-20 hydroxylation (e.g. ecdysone). Full-scan mass spectra were readily obtained from 1 μg of free ecdysteroids, while a limit of detection of 5 ng (signal-to-noise ratio 3) was attained in the selected-ion monitoring mode. The application of HPLC/MS to the study of ecdysteroids in biological materials is demonstrated by the analysis of extracts of newly laid eggs of the desert locust (Schistocerca gregaria) and pupae of the cotton leafworm (Spodoptera litoralis).

    Notes: Nucleic acid extracts from 1400-year-old radish seeds recovered from excavations at Qasr Ibrim, Upper Egypt, have been analysed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry. tert-Butyldimethyisilyl derivatives of the purine and pyrimidine bases were prepared, after treatment of the nucleic acid extracts with concentrated formic acid. Under electron ionization these derivatives yield prominent [M-57]+ ions that were found to be of value for use in analyses employing selected-ion monitoring and product-ion studies. These two techniques were used in the sensitive and selective detection of nucieotide bases in crude extracts of ancient seeds. The results obtained were supported by complementary analyses of hydrolysates of ancient nucleic acids and authentic bases by means of retention time and spectral comparisons. This work demonstrates for the first time that mass spectrometry can be used in the direct chemical examination of nucleotide bases in ancient materials. This analytical approach is currently being used to address questions regarding the possible chemical (diagenetic) changes occurring in the nucleic acids of ancient biological material.

    Notes: Aminoglycoside antibiotics including gentamicin, bekanamycin, tobramycin, lincomycin, neomycin, kanamycin, and ribostamycin have been determined by CE-EC with copper clectrodes. Both copper wall-jet electrodes (WJEs) and copper on-capillary electrodes (OCEs) were evaluated. The OCEs provided μM detection limits, superior stability and reproducibility (2-3% relative standard deviation in oxidation current), and a simple instrumental set-up without the need for capillary/electrode alignment. The analytical capabilities of the Cu-OCE were examined, following the optimization of CE conditions, for the seven aminoglycosides above; and the practical utility of this approach was demonstrated through the determination of aminoglycoside antibiotics in three pharmaceutical preparations.

    Notes: Metastable ions arising from pseudomolecular [M — H]- ions produced by fast-atom bombardment negative-ion mass spectrometry of a range of free ecdysteroids, ecdysteroid conjugates and polar metabolites were investigated by means of linked scanning at constant B/E. Free ecdysteroids displayed daughter-ion spectra which allow 20-hydroxyecdysteroids and ecdysteroids lacking C-20 hydroxylation to be readily distinguished. The ejection of acetic acid from acetylated ecdysteroids was also readily detectable. Characteristic metastable-ion decomposition of ecdysteroid acids was not observed, presumably as a result of charge localization. High-mass daughter ions were also lacking in the case of phosphate conjugates.
