23Na solid state MAS NMR of sodium halides occluded in zeolites.

Occlusion of sodium chloride and sodium bromide in zeolitic pores was performed by heating mixtures of the salts with zeolites NaY and NaA under high vacuum conditions. The obtained samples were subjected to various further pretreatments like washing with water and zinc-exchange, and were investigated spectroscopically with the 23Na MAS NMR technique at various Zeeman field strengths. In the case of NaY, the halides are occluded in both types of cages of the faujasite structure. About 90% of the sodalite cages are shown to have incorporated salt which is concluded to be part of [Na4Hal]3+ clusters as in the case of sodalite type materials.

Evaluation of various agro-wastes for traditional black soap production.

The agricultural wastes, cocoa-pod husks, palm-bunch waste, sorghum chaff and groundnut shells, which are normally thrown away have been used in the production of black soap. Unlike other soaps which are made from oils and chemicals, black soap is made from oils and agro-wastes ashes. Chemical analysis indicated that the liquid extract from the ashes of the different agro-wastes used contained various amounts of potassium and sodium compounds. The most common ingredient in the agro-wastes was potassium carbonate. The amount of potassium carbonate was 56.73 +/- 0.16% in cocoa-pod ash, 43.15 +/- 0.13% in palm-bunch ash, 16.65 +/- 0.05% in groundnut shell ash and 12.40 +/- 0.08% in sorghum chaff ash. Soaps made from the agro-wastes ashes had excellent solubility, consistency, cleansing and lathering abilities.

A comprehensive study on the blockage of thyroid and gastric uptakes of 188Re-perrhenate in endovascular irradiation using liquid-filled balloon to prevent restenosis.

188Re-perrhenate has been reported effective in preventing restenosis after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. However, if the balloon ruptures, 188Re-perrhenate is released into the circulation, causing high radiation dosing to the thyroid and stomach. In this study, we evaluated the effects of perchlorate or iodide given at different times and in different ways for blocking the uptake of 188Re-perrhenate in the thyroid glands and the stomach to find the best method to apply clinically to reduce the radiation dose in case of balloon rupture. Sodium perchlorate, sodium iodide, or potassium iodide was given orally or intravenously to rats before, during, and after the injection of 188Re-perrhenate. The rats were sacrificed and we calculated the concentration of 188Re-perrhenate in various organs to evaluate the preblocking, mixed formula, and postblocking effects of perchlorate or iodide. Our data showed that the preblocking method effectively reduced the uptake of 188Re-perrhenate in both the thyroid and the stomach. The mixed formula method also demonstrated good blocking effect. The postblocking method showed obvious depression of thyroid uptake of perrhenate but its blocking effect on the stomach was not satisfactory.

Iontophoretic current and intradermal microdialysis recovery in humans.

When microdialysis (MD) is used to study dermal delivery by iontophoresis, the effects of current may alter MD recovery through an increase in temperature, a change of pH, hyperemia, and dermal hydration. The objective of this work is to assess whether these effects of current may cause a measurable change in the retrodialysis of a model compound (sodium fluorescein, Fl). Two linear MD-probes were inserted in the forearm dermis of healthy human volunteers and perfused with Ringer's solution containing Fl. Two identical iontophoresis chambers (IC, filled with NaCl in propylene glycol) were placed over the MD-probes. Each IC included a laser Doppler flowmetry probe to monitor skin blood flow. At one IC, current was applied for two periods of 30 min each, separated by 30 min of no current. No current was applied to the control site. Dialysate samples were collected every 5 min and analyzed for Fl by HPLC. Skin blood flow increased in response to iontophoresis, on average, 570% compared to the control site. However, there was no difference in the recovery of Fl between the current-active site versus the control site, and between the period with applied current versus the period with no current. In conclusion, iontophoretic current did not affect intradermal MD recovery.

Prevention of cytotoxic effects of arsenic by short-term dietary supplementation with selenium in mice in vivo.

Interaction between selenium and arsenic has been used to protect against the genotoxic effects of sodium arsenite through dietary intervention by an equivalent amount (1/10 LD50) of sodium selenite. The two salts were administered by gavaging to laboratory bred Swiss albino mice sequentially and in combination. Cytogenetic endpoints, including chromosomal aberrations (CA) and damaged cells (DC) were recorded 24 h after exposure from chromosome spreads in bone marrow cells. Administration of sodium selenite 1 h before sodium arsenite reduced the clastogenic effects of the latter significantly. The protection was less when the salts were given together and negative when arsenite was given before selenite. Histological changes were recorded. Such reduction of arsenic toxicity through dietary intervention by selenium is of significance in protecting against the widespread toxicity observed in human populations exposed to arsenic through drinking water from contaminated deep tubewells in West Bengal and Bangladesh.

Fluid preload before spinal anaesthesia in Caesarean section: the effect on neonatal acid-base status.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the effect of two different preload solutions: (i) Ringer's lactate (compound sodium lactate intravenous infusion BP) and (ii) 0.9% sodium chloride solution on the neonatal acid-base status of the newborn infants. The two standard regimens were compared to detect a possible difference. METHODS: A 2 L crystalloid fluid bolus was administered immediately before spinal anaesthesia for elective Caesarean section in two groups of 20 healthy parturients, while rigorously maintaining maternal normotension. RESULTS: No significant differences in the Apgar scores at 1 and 5 min, or infant well-being were demonstrated in either of the two groups. The data show that umbilical artery PCO2 is lower in the Ringer's lactate group and that pH is insignificantly higher by 0.03. CONCLUSIONS: The choice of Ringer's lactate or saline for fluid preload does not have any effect on neonatal well-being.

Platination of the (T2G4)4 telomeric sequence: a structural and cross-linking study.

The telomeric sequence (T(2)G(4))(4) was platinated in aqueous solutions containing 50 mM LiClO(4), NaClO(4), or KClO(4). The identification of the guanines which reacted with [Pt(NH(3))(3)(H(2)O)](2+) revealed that the same type of folding exists in the presence of the three cations and that the latter determine the relative stabilities of the G-quadruplex structures in the order K(+) > Na(+) >> Li(+). The tri-ammine complex yielded ca. 40--90% of adducts, mono- and poly-platinated, bound to 4 guanines out of the 16 guanines in the sequence, in the decreasing amounts G9 > G15 >> G3 > G21. The formation of these adducts was interpreted with a G-quadruplex structure obtained by restrained molecular dynamics (rMD) simulations which confirms the schematic model proposed by Williamson et al. [(1989) Cell 59, 871--880]. The bifunctional complexes cis- and trans-[Pt(NH(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2)](2+) also first reacted with G9 and G15 and gave cross-linked adducts between two guanines, which did not exceed 5% each of the products formed. Both the cis and trans isomers formed a G3-G15 platinum chelate, and the second also formed bis-chelates at both ends of the G-quadruplex structure: G3-G15/G9-G21 and G3-G15/G9-G24. The rMD simulations showed that the cross-linking reactions by the trans complex can occur without disturbing the stacking of the three G-quartets.

Effects of base composition on the negative cooperativity and binding mode transitions of Escherichia coli SSB-single-stranded DNA complexes.

We have examined the ability of the Escherichia coli single-stranded DNA binding protein (SSB) tetramer to form its different binding modes on poly(dC), poly(U), and poly(A) over a range of NaCl and NaF concentrations for comparison with previous studies with poly(dT). In reverse titrations with poly(U) and poly(A) at 25 degrees C, pH 8.1, SSB forms all four binding modes previously observed with poly(dT), namely, (SSB)35, (SSB)40, (SSB)56, and (SSB)65, where the subscript denotes the site size (i.e., the average number of nucleotides occluded per SSB tetramer). As with poly(dT), the low site size modes are favored at low monovalent salt concentration (< 10 mM), whereas increasing salt concentration facilitates the transitions to the higher site size modes. Surprisingly, SSB does not form a stable (SSB)35 complex on poly(dC), even at 1 mM NaCl; rather, the (SSB)56 mode is formed under these conditions. Upon raising the [NaCl], the (SSB)56 complex undergoes a transition to the (SSB)65 complex (transition midpoint, 40 mM NaCl). On the basis of studies with dC(pC)34, dT(pT)34, and dA(pA)34, the inability of the SSB tetramer to form the (SSB)35 complex with poly(dC) is due mainly to a much lower degree of negative cooperativity for binding oligodeoxycytidylates to the SSB tetramer. At low salt concentration, the negative cooperativity parameter, sigma 35, is lowest for dA(pA)34, intermediate for dT(pT)34, and highest for dC(pC)34, indicating that it is most difficult to saturate the SSB tetramer with two molecules of dA(pA)34. We have also measured the equilibrium constants for binding the oligodeoxynucleotides dC(pC)34, dC(pC)69, dA(pA)34, and dA(pA)69 as a function of [NaCl] and [NaBr] and find that the salt dependencies of these oligonucleotides are dependent upon base composition. These studies also indicate that ion binding accompanies formation of these SSB-ss-DNA complexes, although there is a net release of ions upon formation of the complex. This influence of both salt concentration and base composition indicates that both electrostatic and nonelectrostatic factors contribute to the negative cooperativity associated with ss-DNA binding to the SSB tetramer.

Phosphate inhibition of the copper- and zinc-containing superoxide dismutase: a reexamination.

Phosphate was reported to be an inhibitor of copper- and zinc-containing superoxide dismutase (SOD) [de Freitas, D.M., & Valentine, J.S. (1984) Biochemistry 23, 2079-2082]. Thus SOD activity, in 50 mM 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid (HEPES) (pH 7.4), was decreased by approximately 50% when the assay was made 10 mM in phosphate, and the ionic strength was adjusted with sodium fluoride. The inhibitory effect of phosphate was attributed to the neutralization of the positive charge on the guanidino residue of Arg-141. We have reexamined the effects of phosphate inhibition of SOD and found that the enzyme has identical activity in phosphate or HEPES buffer when the ionic strength is adjusted with NaBr. The putative inhibitory effect of phosphate appears to have been due to fluoride inhibition of the superoxide generating system of xanthine/xanthine oxidase. We have confirmed this result by using a photochemical generation of O2- in addition to the enzymatic generation of O2-. Chemical modification of the lysine residues to homoarginines does not affect the activity of the enzyme and does not impart a phosphate sensitivity. Chemical modification with phenylglyoxal caused approximately 80% inactivation of the native enzyme and 90% inactivation of the O-methylisourea-modified enzyme. Our results suggest that phosphate does not inhibit the copper- and zinc-containing superoxide dismutase (Cu,Zn-SOD) beyond the expectations of its effect on ionic strength.

Propagation of photosensitive chemical waves on the circular routes.

The propagation of chemical waves in the photosensitive Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction was investigated using an excitable field in the shape of a circular ring or figure "8" that was drawn by computer software and then projected on a film soaked with BZ solution using a liquid-crystal projector. For a chemical wave in a circular reaction field, the shape of the chemical wave was investigated depending on the ratio of the inner and outer radii. When two chemical waves were generated on a field shaped like a figure "8" (one chemical wave in each circle) as the initial condition, the location of the collision of the waves either was constant or alternated depending on the degree of overlap of the two circular rings. These experimental results were analyzed on the basis of a geometrical discussion and theoretically reproduced on the basis of a reaction-diffusion system using a modified Oregonator model. These results suggest that the photosensitive BZ reaction may be useful for creating spatio-temporal patterns depending on the geometric arrangement of excitable fields.

Toward understanding the Hofmeister series. 3. Effects of sodium halides on the molecular organization of H2O as probed by 1-propanol.

We investigated the effects of NaF, NaCl, NaBr, and NaI on the molecular organization of H2O by a calorimetric methodology developed by us earlier. We use the third derivative quantities of G pertaining to 1-propanol (1P) in ternary 1P-a salt-H2O as a probe to elucidate the effects of a salt on H2O. We found that NaF and NaCl worked as hydration centers. The hydration numbers were 19 +/- 2 for NaF and 7.5 +/- 0.6 for NaCl. Furthermore, the bulk H2O away from the hydration shell was found unaffected by the presence of Na+, F-, and Cl-. For NaBr and NaI, in addition to the hydration to Na+, Br- and I- acted like a hydrophilic moiety such as urea. Namely, they formed a hydrogen bond to the existing H2O network and retarded the fluctuation nature of H2O. These findings were discussed with respect to the Hofmeister ranking. We suggested that more chaotropic anions Br- and I- are characterized as hydrophiles, whereas kosmotropes, F- and Cl-, are hydration centers.

Hyperthermia, Na+K+ATPase and lactic acid production in some human tumour cells.

When HeLa cells are exposed to brief heat shock at 45 degrees C there is a reduction in the cellular level of Na+K+ATPase. Return of the cells to the normal growth temperature of 37 degrees C leads to a partial restoration of enzyme activity. The pattern of this recovery of activity suggests that it may be associated with the induction of heat shock proteins. Indeed other means of heat shock protein induction such as continuous heat treatment at 42 degrees C, or treatment of cells at 37 degrees C with sodium arsenite, leads to elevated levels of Na+K+ATPase activity and alterations in the kinetic properties of the enzyme. Continuous hyperthermia at 42 degrees C led to increased lactate production which could be blocked with ouabain suggesting that effects on Na+K+ATPase activity could partly influence glycolysis. A number of other human and hamster cells also showed increased lactate production at 42 degrees C and also an inhibition of lactate production by ouabain. Whilst incubation of HeLa cells with cyanide had little effect on glycolysis at 37 degrees C elevation of the temperature to 42 degrees C (or 45 degrees C), in the presence of cyanide, impaired glycolysis. The possible role in this phenomenon, of an unusual oxygen-sensitive isoenzyme of lactate dehydrogenase, expressed in human cancers, is discussed.

Nitric oxide co-operates with hydrogen peroxide in inducing DNA fragmentation and cell lysis in murine lymphoma cells.

We examined whether NO and H2O2 could interact in inducing DNA fragmentation and cell death. H2O2 and the NO-releasing compounds sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and S-nitroso-N-acetyl-D,L-penicillamine (SNAP) by themselves elicited lysis of YAC-1 murine lymphoma cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Exposure of the cells to a combination of sublytic concentrations of SNP (0.78 mM) plus H2O2 (7.8 microM) or SNAP (0.18 mM) plus H2O2 (7.8 microM) resulted in cell death which is mediated, in part, through apoptosis. Evidence for this direction is provided by fluorescence microscopic evaluation of the cells, which revealed the presence of changes in nuclear morphology characteristic of apoptosis in 30-40% of lymphoma cells and by the specific pattern of internucleosomal DNA fragmentation detected by gel electrophoresis. The cytotoxic effect of SNP plus H2O2 could be effectively inhibited by either oxyhaemoglobin, which binds NO, or catalase, which eliminates H2O2. Partial protection from SNP-plus-H2O2-induced cell lysis was observed with the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors, nicotinamide and 3-aminobenzamide, parallelling their ability to reverse depletion of cellular NAD+ pools. These results indicate an interaction between NO and H2O2 which leads to a markedly enhanced cytotoxic activity, in part, via induction of apoptosis and suggest that poly(ADP-ribosylation) and subsequent NAD+ depletion mediate, at least in part, this cytotoxic activity.

CD45 engagement induces L-selectin down-regulation.

The CD45 glycoprotein isoforms exhibit a receptor-like composition and display intracellular protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) activity. The present study links CD45 to the regulation of L-selectin (CD62L), a leucocyte glycoprotein important for extravasation and homotypic aggregation. Monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) IOL1b and AICD45.2, but not GAP8.3, all of which are directed against common CD45 epitopes, were found to elicit lymphocyte L-selectin down-regulation. Lymphocyte L-selectin down-regulation in response to anti-CD45 MoAbs was enhanced by high cell density and partially antagonized by the protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitor, herbimycin A. The MoAbs IOL1b, AICD45.2 and GAP8.3 recognized granulocyte-expressed CD45 but did not induce loss of L-selectin expression of granulocytes. In contrast, the CD45 PTPase inhibitor, vanadate, induced L-selectin down-regulation both in lymphocytes and granulocytes. The PTPase activation by nitric oxide (NO) or the NO-generating compound, sodium nitroprusside, did not affect L-selectin surface expression. Increased concentrations of soluble L-selectin were detected after anti-CD45 or vanadate-induced down-regulation of L-selectin surface expression. While activation of protein kinase C (PKC) by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) induces rapid L-selectin down-regulation of L-selectin surface expression in both lymphocytes and granulocytes, the PKC inhibitor, H 7, was also found to down-regulate lymphocyte and granulocyte L-selectin surface expression. The inhibitor H 7 synergized with vanadate in down-regulating lymphocyte L-selectin surface expression, but partially inhibited vanadate-induced granulocyte L-selectin down-regulation. The results suggest that in a cell type-specific fashion the PKC system and tyrosine phosphorylation and dephosphorylation cascades are involved in the regulation of L-selectin surface expression.

Effects of nitric oxide on platelet activation during plateletpheresis and in vivo tracking of biotinylated platelets in humans.

BACKGROUND: The use of platelet transfusions has risen considerably over the last few years, which leads to the collection and transfusion of a greater number of donor plateletpheresis units. Plateletpheresis activates platelets in platelet concentrates, which determines the degree of the storage lesion subsequently observed. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: As nitric oxide (NO) is a potent inhibitor of platelet aggregation and activation, a placebo-controlled crossover trial was performed in healthy young male volunteers to determine whether the NO-donating compound, sodium nitroprusside (SNP), decreases platelet activation during apheresis and whether activated (p-selectin+) platelets circulate in vivo after transfusion. The study also investigated whether nonradioactive biotin labeling of apheresis platelets is feasible for the study of platelet recovery after transfusion in humans. RESULTS: Platelet activation increased after plateletpheresis in the platelet components, but SNP did not inhibit platelet activation during apheresis, as measured by the percentage of p-selectin expression and the secretion of soluble p-selectin and RANTES. Only a minor increase in p-selectin+ platelets was seen in peripheral blood at 60 minutes after transfusion of the platelets, a rise that was considerably less than that calculated in p-selectin+ platelets if they all were recovered as activated platelets after transfusion. Biotin-labeled platelets averaged 1.5 percent at 10 minutes after transfusion and increased slowly to 2.6 and 3.4 percent after 60 minutes and 24 hours, respectively (p<0.05). CONCLUSION: SNP does not decrease platelet activation during apheresis and subsequent storage, and only a minor proportion of activated (p-selectin+) platelets circulate after transfusion in men. Moreover, biotin labeling of PCs can safely be used in humans for the study of platelet recovery after transfusion, and measuring recovery at 1 hour may lead to an underestimation of the true recovery when activated platelets are transfused.

NO hyperpolarizes pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells and decreases the intracellular Ca2+ concentration by activating voltage-gated K+ channels.

NO causes pulmonary vasodilation in patients with pulmonary hypertension. In pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells, the activity of voltage-gated K+ (Kv) channels controls resting membrane potential. In turn, membrane potential is an important regulator of the intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) and pulmonary vascular tone. We used patch clamp methods to determine whether the NO-induced pulmonary vasodilation is mediated by activation of Kv channels. Quantitative fluorescence microscopy was employed to test the effect of NO on the depolarization-induced rise in [Ca2+]i. Blockade of Kv channels by 4-aminopyridine (5 mM) depolarized pulmonary artery myocytes to threshold for initiation of Ca2+ action potentials, and thereby increased [Ca2+]i. NO (approximately 3 microM) and the NO-generating compound sodium nitroprusside (5-10 microM) opened Kv channels in rat pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells. The enhanced K+ currents then hyperpolarized the cells, and blocked Ca(2+)-dependent action potentials, thereby preventing the evoked increases in [Ca2+]i. Nitroprusside also increased the probability of Kv channel opening in excised, outside-out membrane patches. This raises the possibility that NO may act either directly on the channel protein or on a closely associated molecule rather than via soluble guanylate cyclase. In isolated pulmonary arteries, 4-aminopyridine significantly inhibited NO-induced relaxation. We conclude that NO promotes the opening of Kv channels in pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells. The resulting membrane hyperpolarization, which lowers [Ca2+]i, is apparently one of the mechanisms by which NO induces pulmonary vasodilation.

Topology of the membrane domain of human erythrocyte anion exchange protein, AE1.

Anion exchanger 1 (AE1) is the chloride/bicarbonate exchange protein of the erythrocyte membrane. By using a combination of introduced cysteine mutants and sulfhydryl-specific chemistry, we have mapped the topology of the human AE1 membrane domain. Twenty-seven single cysteines were introduced throughout the Leu708-Val911 region of human AE1, and these mutants were expressed by transient transfection of human embryonic kidney cells. On the basis of cysteine accessibility to membrane-permeant biotin maleimide and to membrane-impermeant lucifer yellow iodoacetamide, we have proposed a model for the topology of AE1 membrane domain. In this model, AE1 is composed of 13 typical transmembrane segments, and the Asp807-His834 region is membrane-embedded but does not have the usual alpha-helical conformation. To identify amino acids that are important for anion transport, we analyzed the anion exchange activity for all introduced cysteine mutants, using a whole cell fluorescence assay. We found that mutants G714C, S725C, and S731C have very low transport activity, implying that this region has a structurally and/or catalytically important role. We measured the residual anion transport activity after mutant treatment with the membrane-impermeant, cysteine-directed compound, sodium (2-sulfonatoethyl)methanethiosulfonate) (MTSES). Only two mutants, S852C and A858C, were inhibited by MTSES, indicating that these residues may be located in a pore-lining region.

Characterization of the MRP4- and MRP5-mediated transport of cyclic nucleotides from intact cells.

Cyclic nucleotides are known to be effluxed from cultured cells or isolated tissues. Two recently described members of the multidrug resistance protein family, MRP4 and MRP5, might be involved in this process, because they transport the 3',5'-cyclic nucleotides, cAMP and cGMP, into inside-out membrane vesicles. We have investigated cGMP and cAMP efflux from intact HEK293 cells overexpressing MRP4 or MRP5. The intracellular production of cGMP and cAMP was stimulated with the nitric oxide releasing compound sodium nitroprusside and the adenylate cyclase stimulator forskolin, respectively. MRP4- and MRP5-overexpressing cells effluxed more cGMP and cAMP than parental cells in an ATP-dependent manner. In contrast to a previous report we found no glutathione requirement for cyclic nucleotide transport. Transport increased proportionally with intracellular cyclic nucleotide concentrations over a calculated range of 20-600 microm, indicating low affinity transport. In addition to several classic inhibitors of organic anion transport, prostaglandins A(1) and E(1), the steroid progesterone and the anti-cancer drug estramustine all inhibited cyclic nucleotide efflux. The efflux mediated by MRP4 and MRP5 did not lead to a proportional decrease in the intracellular cGMP or cAMP levels but reduced cGMP by maximally 2-fold over the first hour. This was also the case when phosphodiesterase-mediated cyclic nucleotide hydrolysis was inhibited by 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, conditions in which efflux was maximal. These data indicate that MRP4 and MRP5 are low affinity cyclic nucleotide transporters that may at best function as overflow pumps, decreasing steep increases in cGMP levels under conditions where cGMP synthesis is strongly induced and phosphodiesterase activity is limiting.
