    Notes: Summary Single, slow muscle fibers fromRana temporaria were equilibrated in normal Ringer's. 95 mmol/liter K1-solution containing various concentrations of Ca2+, Ni2+, Mn2 or Mg2+ was applied, and the ensuing contractures were recorded isometrically. While peak tension (F max) was little affected, maintained tension (measured 1 min after onset of contracture) strongly depended on the concentration and species of divalent cations. Tension was maintained at its peak value in the presence of all species of divalent cations provided their concentrations were adequately increased. Dose-response curves were hyperbolic: Lineweaver-Burk plots revealed straight lines with different slopes intersecting near 1/F max, and indicating the following order of efficiency: Ni2+〉Ca2+〉Mn2+〉〉Mg2+. Hill plots for these cations resulted in straight lines with slopes near 1. Qualitatively similar relationships were obtained with contracture solutions containing D6000 (3–12 μmol/liter). However, under these conditions higher concentrations of Ca2+ or Ni2+ were required in order to fully maintain tension. After a step concentration change in the medium during contracture, the effects of Ca2+ or D600 were detectable only after a delay of 9 and 18 sec, respectively. It is concluded that divalent cations and D600 compete for the same binding site according to a 1:1 reaction. This site is presumably located inside the transverse tubular system and controls inactivation of the contractile force.

    Notes: Abstract New nanocomposites materials have been synthesized. They present electrochemical and photochromic properties. They are based on a hybrid organic-inorganic network, in which tungsten heteropolyoxometalates (PW12O 40 3− , SiW12O 40 4− , W10O 32 4− , polymeric tungstate) are entrapped. High tungsten ratios could be reached and films or bulk materials have been obtained. The structure of these materials is described on the basis of multi-spectroscopic investigations (IR, EPR, NMR). Electrochemical redox reactions have been observed in thin films. Dark blue reversible coloration of the materials is obtained under UV irradiation. The photochromic mechanism has been investigated and shows the reversible formation of carbonyl group.

    Enhancement of the Photochromic Performance of Spirooxazine in Sol-Gel Derived Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Matrices by Additives (1997)

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Abstract Organic-inorganic hybrid materials synthesized via sol-gel processing are excellent solid matrices for photochromic dyes like spirooxazine, and the photochromic performance can be further enhanced by introducing suitable additives. This work describes the effects of additives on the photochromic intensity (Δ A 0), decolouration rate (k) and photostability of spirooxazine in sol-gel derived organic-inorganic hybrid matrices. They include fluoro-alkylsilane (FAS), bisphenol A (BPA) and methyl-imidazole (MI). FAS enhances both Δ A 0 and photostability, but has little effect on k. The higher the content of BPA, the higher the Δ A 0 and the higher the photostability, but the lower the k. The effect of MI on Δ A 0 and k is not so considerable as that of BPA and is a little complicated, while significant improvement in photostability is achieved by the addition of MI at an optimum concentration with the presence of BPA at a higher content.

    D600 prolongs inactivation of the contractile system in frog twitch fibres (1987)
    Springer

    Notes: Abstract (1) Single twitch fibres were dissected from tibialis muscles ofRana temporaria and used to study the effect of D600 (gallopamil) on potassium-induced contractures. (2) 95 mM K-Ringer's was applied for 8–15 s at intervals of generally 2.5–5 min; at temperatures of 6–8°C and in the absence of D600 the amplitude of the contractures remained fairly constant. After pretreatment with D600 (30 μM) a single (conditioning) K-contracture was sufficient to ‘paralyze’ the fibres (cf. Eisenberg et al. 1983). (3) Complete paralysis could also be achieved at 18–20°C. In three fibres a single conditioning K-application was sufficient; in two more fibres two or three conditioning K-applications were required. (4) D600-paralysis could not only be achieved with high K-concentrations but also by conditioning with subor suprathreshold K-concentrations (20–40 mM); the duration of the conditioning periods required to induce complete paralysis was approximately the same before and after D600-treatment. (5) Contractures were partially abolished by application of 20–40 mM K-Ringer's for short conditioning periods; after D600-treatment the degree of contracture loss was similar. (6) At low temperature the state of partial or complete paralysis induced by subthreshold K-concentrations and D600 was maintained for long periods of time. (7) The presence of 10 mM Ca2+ did not protect the fibres from being paralyzed by treatment with D600 and high K-Ringer's at low temperature; however, more than one conditioning K-application was required. (8) Resting and action potentials of paralyzed fibres were not significantly different from control values. However, endplate potentials were reduced in size, and failure of neuromuscular transmission was observed in some of these fibres. (9) It is concluded that D600 prolongs the state of inactivation of the contractile mechanism, while the development of inactivation does not seem to be markedly affected.

    The effect of D600 on potassium contractures of slow muscle fibres ofRana temporaria (1988)
    Springer
    Pflügers Archiv 412 (1988), S. 390-396

    ISSN: 1432-2013
    Keywords: Slow fibre ; K-Contracture ; D600 ; Inactivation ; Repriming

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract (1) The effect of 30 μM D600 on the amplitude and time course of isometric contractures was studied in single slow fibres ofRana temporaria. (2) D600 only slightly reduced the amplitude of contractures evoked with 30 or 95 mM K-Ringer's. Maintenance of tension was strongly impaired by D600 only during exposure to 95 mM K. The caffeine contracture was not affected. (3) Addition of 10 mM Ca2+ or other divalent cations to the medium strongly counteracted the effect of D600 on maintained tension. The order of efficiency was Ca2+=Ni2+〉Co2+〉Mn2+〉Mg2+. (4) During 2 min exposure to 95 mM K-Ringer's the slow fibres inactivated to a variable degree; recovery from inactivation in normal Ringer's proceeded with a half time of the order of 1 min, while in the presence of D600 recovery was prolonged 3.3 to 27 times. (5) It is concluded that the effect of D600 on the contractile behaviour of slow fibres fromRana temporaria is predominantly due to a prolongation of the inactivated state. It is suggested that D600 binds to a site at the outer membrane surface which also binds divalent cations and determines the degree of contractile inactivation during exposure to potassium. Blocking of Ca2+ channels is unlikely to be the mechanism of this D600-effect.

    Notes: This paper describes the properties of some new organic-inorganic photochromic layers. They are based on a hybrid organic-inorganic matrix in which tungsten heteropolyoxometallates (SiW12O4-40, PW12O3-40) are entrapped in a network obtained from the reaction of 3-glycidoxy-propyltrimethoxysilane. The high homogeneity of these materials on the nanoscale leads to transparent monoliths and layers of controlled thicknesses up to 40 μm. The optical properties of the blend are emphasised and the construction of amplitude gratings in the materials by two-wave-mixing experiments is described. The results of the optical experiments and the comparison with the theoretical background are used as a model for photochromic holographic storage processes. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
