    Notizen: Summary Nitric oxide, which is produced from l-arginine by a nitric oxide-synthase enzyme, has been shown to be a ubiquitous messenger molecule. Recently, it has been suggested that nitric oxide might influence insulin secretion by activating the soluble guanylate cyclase and generating cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). We have investigated the role of the nitric oxide pathway in insulin secretion by evaluating the insulin response to several secretagogues in rats in which nitric oxide-synthase was chronically inhibited by oral administration of the l-arginine analogue, NG-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME). Blood pressure and aortic wall cGMP content were used as indices of nitric oxide-synthase blockade. Insulin secretion was evaluated after an intravenous bolus of d-glucose, l-arginine or d-arginine. Chronic l-NAME administration induced a 30% increase in blood pressure and a seven-fold drop in arterial cGMP content. Body weight, fasting plasma glucose and insulin were not influenced by l-NAME administration. First-phase insulin secretion (1+3 min) in response to glucose was not significantly different in l-NAME and control rats. The areas under the insulin curve were similar in both groups. Insulin secretion in response to d-arginine or l-arginine in l-NAME-treated and control rats were also similar. In conclusion, chronic nitric oxide-synthase blockade increases blood pressure and decreases aortic cGMP content, but does not alter insulin secretion in response to several secretagogues. Chronic oral administration of l-NAME in the rat provides an adequate animal model for studying the l-arginine nitric oxide-pathway.

    Notizen: Abstract The aim of this study was to identify malignant thyroid nodules using iodine-123 and thallium-201 simultaneous dynamic acquisition. The image sequences acquired were processed by factor analysis of spectral and dynamic structures (FASDS). Some 49 patients were investigated, and their diagnoses were confirmed by histological examination. Data processing enables the estimation of the spectra of the two isotopes and the evaluation of the kinetics and spatial structures related to each tracer. The superimposition of thallium and iodide sum images allowed us to delineate the nodule accurately. Two groups were defined: 21 patients who had 201T1 uptake in the nodule, and 28 who had none. In the first group, 5 nodules were carcinomas, whereas all nodules in the second group were benign. The results of the 201T1 dynamic study improved the diagnosis of carcinoma as the number of false-positive cases decreased. FASDS succeeds in extracting spectral and kinetic information, proving its usefulness in clinical diagnosis.
