Absorption and excretion of carbenicillin indanyl sodium in patients with reduced kidney function.

On eight volunteers with reduced kidney function, 1 g of carbenicillin indanyl sodium was administered orally for the single dose studies and was given orally in a dose of 1 g every 6 h for 7 days for the multiple dose studies. The patients were divided into two groups according to their kidney functions: group I moderately impaired and group II severely impaired. In the single dose studies, the mean peak level was 12.6 microgram/ml for group I and 26.9 microgram/ml for group II. In the multiple dose studies, the drug tended to accumulate in group II, but the level obtained in group II did not exceed more than 300 microgram/ml. In the single dose studies, the mean peak level in the urine was 1,478.5 microgram/ml for group I and 350.0 microgram/ml for group II. In the multiple dose studies, despite the multiple dose regimen, the level obtained from group II patients only transiently exceeded more than that which will effectively inhibit the growth of Pseudomonas, Klebsiella and Enterobacter. In the single dose studies, the mean cumulative amount excreted in the urine within 24 h was 314.2 mg for group I and 120.1 mg for group II and the difference between both groups was significant (p less than 0.05). For the multiple dose studies, the amount was 278.0 mg for group I and 127.2 mg for group II, respectively. The total amount excreted in the urine within 24 h and the serum level obtained 6 h after ingestion of 1 g of carbenicillin indanyl sodium was correlated to the creatinine clearance and the rate of PSP excreted in the urine within the first 15 min of the test.

Retrocaval ureter with carcinoma of the renal pelvis: report of a case.

A case of retrocaval ureter associated with carcinoma of the renal pelvis has been presented. This is the 2nd such case out of 110 cases reported in Japan. It is suggested that long term stagnation of urine is the cause for such a high incidence of malignant neoplasm involving the renal pelvis.

Relationship between the structures of fatty acid amide derivatives and their antimicrobial activities.

The structure-activity relationships of derivatives of the antibiotic cerulenin were investigated by chemically modifying dodecanoic acid, its skeletal back-bone. The dimethylamide derivatives were active against both gram-positive and -negative bacteria, and fungi. Among the compounds having modified groups at positions C2 and C4, the most active were those with a carbonyl group at C4 and a double bond at C2. The dimethylamide and pyrrolidine amide derivatives of this structure type were the most active. Activity against bacteria and yeast increased with the number of carbon atoms in the skeleton, with the maximum activity being observed at C=12. No significant differences in activity against fungi were observed with change in chain length.

Pancreas acinar cell differentiation. VII. Autoradiographic demonstration of intracellular radioactivity with with S-adenosyl-L-(C 3 H 3 ) methionine.

After rat pancreas anlagen were grown in an organ culture medium for 9 days and further incubated for 15, 30 or 60 minutes in media to which C(3)H(3)-Sadenosyl-L-methionine (C(3)H(3)-SAM) was added, autoradiography demonstrated radioactivity in the nucleolus, nucleus and cytoplasm of the acinar cell. Under similar circumstances, except that the anlagen were grown in a methionine-deficient (CD-MD) medium prior to incubation with C(3)H(3)-SAM, much greater concentrations of radioactivity were present in the nucleolus, nucleus and cytoplasm of the acinar cell than in the respective compartments of anlagen grown in control medium. The nucleolus showed the highest concentration of radioactivity in anlagen grown in either control or methionine-deficient medium. The nucleolus of the acinar cell of anlagen grown in CD-MD medium appeared to be the most undermethylated cellular compartment and was larger than the nucleolus of the acinar cell grown in the control CD medium, so it is possible that a deficient methylation of ribosomal RNA precursors led to a piling up of RNA in the nucleolus and a decrease in the flow of ribosomal precursors to the cytoplasm. Other substance might have been undermethylated and thereby have inhibited differentiation.
