Effects of VPS extract of Coriolus versicolor on cancer of the large intestine using a serial sacrifice technique.

VPS, a hot water extract of the Coriolus versicolor mushroom, was given at a 2% dose level in the diet of female Swiss Webster CFW outbred mice in a serial sacrifice experiment. The mice were also administered either 1,2-dimethylhydrazine dihydrochloride (1,2-DMH) as ten weekly subcutaneous (s.c) injections of 20 microg/g body weight or physiological saline (PS) as ten weekly (s.c) injections of 0.01 ml/g body weight. The animals were sacrificed at 26 weeks or 35 weeks after the first injection of 1,2-DMH or PS. The number of mice with large intestinal tumors and the total number of these tumors were: Group I (1,2-DMH), 29 and 438; Group 2 (VPS + 1,2-DMH), 29 and 344; Group 3 (VPS + PS), 0 and 0; and Group 4 (PS), I and 1, in the mice sacrificed at 26 weeks. The corresponding tumor incidences in mice sacrificed at 35 weeks were: Group 1 (1,2-DMH), 30 and 323; Group 2 (VPS + 1,2-DMH), 29 and 521; Group 3 (VPS + PS), 1 and 2; and Group 4 (PS), 0 and 0. Histopathologically, the tumors were diagnosed as polypoid adenomas and adenocarcinomas of the cecum, colon and rectum. Contrary to expectations, the VPS treatment enhanced the development of large intestinal tumors induced by 1,2-DMH in animals sacrificed at 35 weeks after the first injection of the carcinogen.

[Study and immunoanalytical applications for peroxidase from Arthromyces ramosus].

Some biochemical and catalytic properties of peroxidase from Arthromyces ramosus (EC 1.11.7.1) in chemiluminescent reaction of luminol oxidation by hydrogen peroxide were investigated. The second order rate constants were determined by the stopped-flow technique. Optimal conditions to quantity the enzyme were found, the detection limit being 5.10(-13) M. The peroxidase was used as a marker in the human IgG immunoassay.

Individual patterns of immediate skin reactivity to mold extracts.

One hundred atopic patients were skin tested intradermally over a 2-year period with 30 different mold extracts. Subjects were monitored for immediate reactions. Data suggest that to evaluate mold sensitivity in atopic patients one must use multiple mold extracts.

[Study of patulin by NMR and mass spectroscopy].

Patulin was studied by NMR and mass spectrometry. On the basis of the 1H and 13C NMR spectral analysis and experiments on double homo-(1H NMR) and heteronuclear (13C NMR) resonances complete assigning of the proton and carbon signals was achieved. Patulin was studied mass spectrometrically with using high performance mass spectrometry and the DADI technique. It was shown that formation of the [M--C2H4O]+ ion was due to rearrangement of the molecular ion (M+).

Common toxic plant ingestions.

This article focuses on some of the more common dangerous plant and mushroom ingestions, discussing toxic components, early symptoms, and treatment. Among the plants considered are oleander, foxglove, hemlock, dieffenbachia, and Amanita phalloides. Details concerning recognition of toxic species are intentionally omitted in an effort to avoid potentially dangerous errors in identification.

The synaptonemal complex, recombination nodules and chiasmata in human spermatocytes.

Reconstruction from serial sections of 120 human spermatocyte nuclei, ranging in stage from leptotene to anaphase I, has led to the following conclusions. The reconstructed nuclei form a continuous sequence of developmental stages. With few exceptions, all of the bivalents are identifiable by length, centromere index and morphological markers. Crossing over is accompanied by a transformation of the recombination nodule (RN) into a fusiform bar lying across the synaptonemal complex (SC). The evolution of the crossover distribution at late pachytene is regulated at two levels both involving the SC. Each bivalent displays a pattern of SC regions - domains - with high affinity for RNs in the middle and low affinity at the ends. The occurrence of crossing over in a domain reduces the probability of attachment of new RNs and causes RNs not yet involved in crossing over to be released from that domain. Positive interference between crossovers is a consequence of these phenomena. At diplotene the degradation of the SC is initiated in regions with low affinity for RNs and small segments of the SC are retained at the crossover sites until late diakinesis. The site of crossing over is only identifiable by an RN for a certain period of time during pachytene. The distribution of total crossovers in a nucleus is similar but not identical to the distribution of chiasmata as seen in the light microscope. The number of crossovers has been estimated to be 70 and exceeds the number of chiasmata determined by light microscopy by a factor of 1.4.
