(A) There are three different theories put foward for the very slow relaxation of catch muscles of molluscs. (B) One theory holds that catch is due

to some unusual property of myosin in these muscles that produces a slow rate of

detachement (ref). (C) In this theory, paramyosin would have no special role beyond that of

providing the long scaffolding on which the myosin is positioned as well as the mechanical

strenght for the large tensions developed.

(Zeiger 2000)

(D) The second theory holds that tension is developed by actin-myosin interaction but is

maintained by paramyosin interactions (ref). (E) Because the thick filaments are of limited

lenght, interaction would have to occur through fusion of thick filaments (ref). (F) A third theory, to which I subscribe, pictures a structural change

in the paramyosin core affecting the rate of breaking of myosin-actin links at the filament

surface (ref).

(A) To assess the distribution, size, and shape of ganglion cell bodies in the tracheal neural

plexus, we examined individual cell bodies in their entirety at 100-400 x with a compound light microscope. (B1) For the assessment of

distribution, first each ganglion cell body that was stained by the acetylcholinesterase reaction

product or that was bordered by acetylcholinesterase-positive ganglion cell

bodies was classified according to its location in tracheal neural plexus; (B2) then the number of

cell bodies in each ganglion was counted.

(Zeiger 2000)

(C) For the assessment of the size and shape of each ganglion cell body, the (α) major and (β)

minor axis of the cell body were mesured with a calibrated reticle in the eye-piece of the

microscope, and, based on these dimensions, the mean caliper diameter, the volume (π αβ2/6), and the aspect ration (α/β) were

calculated. (D) Mean caliper diameter was calculated by the formula for prolate ellipsoid of

rotatio as described by Eliasand Hyde (1983).

(A) Like Karoumet al. (ref), we estimated the half-life of ganglionic dopamine to be

considerably less than 1h, which indicates a very rapid rate of turnover. (B) Although measures of

total dopamine turnover cannot distinguish between of turnover associated with SIF cells

and principal neurons, from our results we suspect that this rapid rate of turnover is

accounted for primarily by precursor dopamine in principal neurons.

(Zeiger 2000)

(C) We based this suspicion on our finding that whitin 1 h after injection of the systhesis

inhibitor α-MT, and 40 min after injection of the systhesis inhibitor NSD-1015, the ganglionic dopamine content dropped by about 60%,

leaving some 7 pmol of dopamine that was resistant to further significant depletion for at least 3 h. (D) To interpret these data, we used

Koslow’s finding that approximately 40% of the dopamine in the rat superior cervical ganglion is

stored in SIF cells (ref).

(Zeiger 2000)

(E) Applying this figure to our measure of ganglionic dopamine (18pmol/ganglion) would

mean that about 7 pmol of dopamine is contained in SIF cells. (F) Therefore, we speculate that the 7 pmol of dopamine

remaining 1 h after synthesis was inhibited represents SIF cell dopamine that is slowly

turning over, whereas the 60% that is rapidly depleted represents the precursor dopamine in

principal neurons that is rapidly turning over.

(Zeiger 2000)

(G) This notion is consistent with reports which have shown that SIF cell catecholamines have a very slow turn over in the rat superior cervical

ganglion (ref).

The extent of digestion of the liver was determined empirically, on the basis of the softness of the liver in response to gentle

scratches applied with sterile tweezers. When these scratches broke the surface of the liver,

digestion was considered complete. The key enzyme in hepatocyte isolation is collagenase, but there is surprisingly little

definitive information about what constitutes a good enzyme preparation for efficacy of cell yield

and viability. (Zeiger 2000)

liver, and apo-B48, mainly synthesized in the intestine, are products of a single op-B gene (ref). The production of apo-B48 in the human intestine

is the result of an RNA-editing process that changes a glutamine codon (CAA) of the mRNA

for apo-B100 into a translational stop codon (UAA). This apo-B mRNA-editing process does not

occurs in human livers, so apo-B48 is not synthesized in human livers. However, the mRNA-

Cellular oncogenes are created when normal cellular genes that have latent transforming

proliferation are subverted. Several subfamilies of G-protein-coupled receptors, for example, the

serotonin (1c) and muscarinic cholinenergic (m1, m3, m5) receptors, have been shown to result in

conditional, agonist-dependent activation of proto-oncogenes (ref).

The ability to perform high-resolution genotyping for the purposes of genetic mapping depends on the availability of polymorphic markers at very

high density. Single-base variations, reported on average at every 1 kb of the human genome,

provide an attractive reservoir of polymorphisms. Mismatch repair detection is an in vivo method for the detection of DNA sequence variations.

Transição entre sentenças By widening our focus to the entire trachea, we were able to see that most ganglion cell bodies (72%) are located in the neural plexuses associated with the

trachealis muscle and submucosal glands, and only a small proportion (28%) are located along the

longitudinal nerve trunks. Furthermore, we were able to see that most of the ganglia in the superficial

muscle and gland plexuses contain only 1-4 ganglion cell bodies (average, 2.8 ganglions cell bodies). Thus,

previously reported ganglia along the longitudinal nerve trunk that contain 10-20 ganglion cells bodies

are not typical of most tracheal ganglia.

There are three different theories put foward for the very slow relaxation of catch muscles of

molluscs. One theory holds that catch is due to some unusual property of myosin in these

muscles that produces a slow rate of detachement (ref). In this theory, paramyosin

would have no special role beyond that of providing the long scaffolding on which the

myosin is positioned as well as the mechanical strenght for the large tensions developed.

and thus contribute to neoplastic grow. Many ligands that activate G protein-coupled

receptors, including bombesin, lysophosphatidic acid (LDA), acetylcholine, and serotonin (5TH),

have mitogenic effects. Moreover, pertussis toxin blocks the mitogenic effects of three of

these ligands (bombesin, LDA, and 5TH) and also of thrombin and phosphatidic acid.

These benefits were greatest in patients who had documented severe to moderate mitral

regurgitation, intermediate in those who had mild to no apparent mitral regurgitation, and

smallest in patients who had competent mitral valve prostheses and therefore no mitral

regurgitation.

To assess the distribution, size, and shape of ganglion cell bodies in the tracheal neural

plexus, we examined individual cell bodies in their entirety at 100-400 x with a compound

light microscope. For the assessment of distribution, first each ganglion cell body that

was stained by the acetylcholinesterase reaction product or that was bordered by

acetylcholinesterase-positive ganglion cell bodies was classified according to its location in tracheal neural plexus; then the number of cell

bodies in each ganglion was counted.

(Zeiger 2000)

For the assessment of the size and shape of each ganglion cell body, the (α) major and (β) minor

axis of the cell body were mesured with a calibrated reticle in the eye-piece of the

microscope, and, based on these dimensions, the mean caliper diameter, the volume (π αβ2/6), and the aspect ration (α/β) were calculated. Mean caliper diameter was

calculated by the formula for prolate ellipsoid of rotatio as described by Eliasand Hyde (1983).

Samples of inspired, end-tidal, and mixed-expired gases were taken during the 2-h wash-in period. Inspired gas samples were collected proximal to the non-rebreathing valve. End-tidal gas samples were collected throught a catheter, the tip of it which was placed near the tracheal end of the endotracheal tube. The endotracheal tube was

conected to the non-rebreathing valve with fllexible Teflon® tubing whose internal volume

was approximately 100 ml.

(Zeiger 2000)

Teflon® was used to avoid the absortion and release of anesthetic that occur with plastics such

as polyethylene, and the added 100 ml of dead space was used to prevent contamination of end-

tidal samples with inspired gas. Expired gases were conducted via a flexible Teflon® tube to an aluminum mixing chamber. Mixed-expired gas samples were collected distal to the aluminum

mixing chamber. All gas samples were collected in 50 ml glass syringes that were stored upright (to

produce a slight positive pressure) until analysed.

Propranolol had variable effects on the hypoxemia-induced changes in regional blood

flow. In the cerebrum, the increase in blood flow caused by hypoxemia was not significantly

altered by propranolol. However, in other organs, such as the gut and the kidneys, and in the

peripheral circulation, propranolol cause a more severe decrease in blood flow that did hypoxemia

Olsen et al. (ref) concluded that series interaction was more important than direct interaction;

Visner et al. (ref), using nearly identical preparations and protocol, concluded the

opposite. We found that direct interaction was about one-half as important as series interaction in determining left ventricular volume at the end diastole when the pericardium was on, and that the direct interaction effect decreased when the

pericardium was removed.

Acetylcholinesterase activity has been found in most ganglion cells of the myenteric and

submucosal plexuses of the enteric nervous system, but differences have been found in the

intensity of the acetylcholinesterase reaction, and ganglia have been classified accordingly (ref).

Likewise, differences in the intensity of the acetylcholinesterase reaction were found in the

ferret trachea.

(Zeiger 2000)

However, the intensity of the reaction appeared to depend more on the ganglion cell’s position and on the presence of overlying connective tissue than on acetylcholinesterase content.

Therefore, no atempt was made in this study to classify ganglion cells according to the amount of

acetylcholinesterase activity.

The log10 function eliminated some waves. The factor that determined whether a wave was

eliminated or amplified was the divisor. When the divisor was greater than the absolute value of the peak of a wave, the wave was eliminated. When

the divisor was less than the absolute value of the peak of a wave, the wave was amplified.
