The effects of tricaine methanesulfonate (MS-222) on plasma nonesterified fatty acids in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss.

The effects of tricaine methanesulfonate (MS-222), a commonly used fish anesthetic, on plasma nonesterified fatty acid levels (NEFA) were examined in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss. Total NEFA levels declined with increasing duration of exposure to MS-222. Most of the decline in total NEFA was due to decreases in saturated fatty acids (14:0, 16:0 and 18:0). The fatty acid displaying the most rapid response to exposure to MS-222 was 20:5n-3. The lower plasma NEFA levels in anesthetized fish may be explained by depressed lipolysis in the presence of the anesthetic.

Gorlin-Goltz: what's in a name?

This paper describes the clinical features of two very distinct syndromes with similar names: Gorlin-Goltz and Goltz-Gorlin Syndromes. A case report is presented that highlights the differences between these syndromes. To avoid errors in diagnosis because of the similarity in names, the authors caution that, based on additional information now available, the preferred names should be Focal Dermal Hypoplasia syndrome for Goltz-Gorlin syndrome and Nevoid Basal Cell Carcinoma syndrome for Gorlin-Goltz syndrome.
