    Notes: Abstract Objective: The effects of slow diurnal hemodialysis (slow HD) on amino acid losses and nitrogen balance were studied. Design: Slow HD was conducted for 10 h during the day at the dialysate flow rate of 30 ml/min. The patients received total parenteral nutrition including 40 g of amino acids (6.08 g of nitrogen). The amino acid concentrations in plasma and dialysate were determined and the daily nitrogen balance was calculated from the urea nitrogen appearance. Patients: Six critically ill patients with renal failure were entered into the study. Results: Slow HD eliminated 48.5±4.4 mmol (6.2±0.6 g) of amino acids, representing 16% of the daily amino acid load. The estimated nitrogen balance was –2.3±1.3 g/day. Amino acid nitrogen lost in the dialysate was 1.0±0.1 g, contributing 43% of the daily negative nitrogen balance. Conclusion: The amount of amino acid losses during slow HD should be taken into consideration when designing nutritional schedules for maintaining positive nitrogen balance in critically ill patients.

    Notes: Abstract Objective The pharmacokinetics of amikacin were studied in patients undergoing slow hemodialysis (HD). Design Slow HD was performed at the dialysate flow rate of 30 ml/min. After a single intravenous dose of amikacin 5 mg/kg, pharmacokinetic variables were calculated by fitting indivdual concentration-time curves to a two-compartment open model. Patients 6 critically ill patients with renal failure were entered into the study. Results The volume of distribution was 0.35±0.03 l/kg. Total body clearance was 35.1±2.3 ml/min with an elimination half-life of 10.5 h. During a 10.5 h session of slow HD, the serum amikacin concentration decreased from the peak level of 21.3±1.2 mg/l to 7.2±0.9 mg/l. Conclusion Slow HD eliminate amikacin more efficiently than other types of slowly performed renal replacement therapy and had profound effects on the pharmacokinetics. Amikacin elimination by this approach should be taken into consideration for designing a dosage schedule during the treatment.

    Enhanced melanogenesis of murine melanoma cells cultured on or in collagen gel (1990)

    Notes: Summary To elucidate the interaction between melanoma and its matrix, we cultured B16 murine melanoma cells on and in type I collagen gel and evaluated specified functions of melanoma cells; tyrosinase activity and melanin-synthesizing capacity. Proliferation of cells cultured in these environments was markedly suppressed compared with that of cells cultured conventionally on plastic. On the other hand, the tyrosinase activity of cells cultured in or on collagen gel was two to three times higher than that of cells cultured on the plastics, while their melanin production was approximately double that achieved during conventional culture of cells. In conclusion, collagen gel influenced the growth and cell-specific functions of the melanoma cell. The culture system using collagen gel as substrate may be useful for the investigation of the interaction between melanoma and its matrix.
