Blood serum samples were obtained from 114 crossbred calves on a feed trial under feedlot conditions at the end of a 56-day feeding period. Average values for 19 blood components were determined. The effects of the 3 trial rations and 2 electrolyte treatments were analyzed. Except for inorganic phosphates, urea nitrogen, cholesterol, glucose, alanine aminotransferase, and alkaline phosphatase most mean values were similar to those in dairy cattle. Urea nitrogen values differed significantly (P less than 0.05) in animals fed different rations apparently reflecting the crude protein content of each ration. The mean values presented can be used as base-line data for comparison with other similar studies or with values from diseased animals.

We show our experience in 12 patients treated during a year with weekly intermittent dialysis whit a rigid catheter for 36 hours a week. Patients were on a diet of 50 g. of proteins a day, normocaloric without sodium or fluid restriction. They received supplementation whith iron, calcium, vitamins B, C and folic acid, anabolic hormonal and, in some cases, furosemide hypotensives and antibiotics. Patients received the procedure for a mean of 8 months. The results show the following mean values: blood pressure: 143 +/- 12/99 +/- 3 mm. Hg., plasma urea 208 +/- 62 ng./dl.; creatinine 21 +/- 2 mg./dl., hematocrit 25 mm. and 8.0 g. hemoglobin. There was light increase of glucose, K, P, Mg, alkaline phosphatase. Na, CO2, proteins cholesterol, albumin and Ca keep in normal values. Nine patients passed to hemodialysis after a mean period of nine months and three of them received a kidney transplant. Three are still in peritoneal dialysis, one of them for 18 months. We compared our results with a similar group of patients who were treated with non-regular peritoneal dialysis. Our group had less cardiovascular complaints, or infections and keep more adequate body weight, and also got more survival in better conditions with less days in hospital, they received less blood transfusion. We concluded that weekly peritoneal dialysis is an alternative method of treatment in uremic patients for longer period of time even though frequently paracentesis.

A thyroid hormone analogue, sodium dextro-triiodothyronine (NaDT3), at a dosage of 1 mg/day for 1 or 2 yr, decreased serum cholesterol levels about 30% in 26 hyperlipidemic adults. There were less sustained decreases in the serum phospholipids, and occasional lowering of the serum triglycerides, but no effects on body weight, blood pressure, or pulse rate. Changes recognized as variable concomitants of spontaneous or induced thyrotoxicosis, such as transient increases in fasting blood glucose, calcium, and globulin, persistent rises in alkaline phosphatase, and nonsustained decreases in hematocrit are consonant with the fact that Na-DT3 exerts about one tenth of the thyroid hormone activity of LT3. These changes, however, appear to represent actions of iodinated amino acids apart from those effects that result in clinical thyrotoxicosis.

In a series of experiments with a total of 1480 veal calves, different aspects of treating calves with anabolic steroids were examined. The anabolics used were 17beta-estradiol (E), trenbolone acetate (T), progesterone (P), testosterone (Te), C+T, E+P, E+Te and zeranole (Z). The N-retention was estimated by examining the urea: creatinine ratio in single urine specimens during the course of two feeding trials. Increased gain due to the treatment with E (20 mg implanted/calf) + P (200 mg) and Te (200 mg), respectively, E + T (140 mg) or Z (36 mg) was during the whole experimental period. The extra gain, due to anabolics seems to contain even more protein. This conclusion may be supported by the crude protein content of meat samples. The antibody production of a total of 311 male and female calves was investigated after the application of the following steroids: E (20 mg), T (200 mg), T (200 mg), E + T, P (200 mg), Te (200 mg), E + P, E + Te, and Z. Eleven days after the implantation of the steroids the animals were immunized with alumprecipitated human serumalbumin. Antibody-titres were determined by the Antigen-Binding-Capacity Test on day 14 following immunization. In nearly all groups the antibody-titres of female calves exceeded those of male calves on the average by 75%. The immune response of all experimental groups did not differ significantly from that of the corresponding control groups. However, the results indicate that both E + T and its single components E and T exert an immunodepressive effect in male calves. While the humoral antibody formation in the calf appears not to be influenced by anabolic steroids, it cannot be decided presently whether these substances effect cell-mediated immune reactions and/or unspecific mechanisms of resistance. When estradiol (20, 200, and 500 mg) and trenbolone acetate (140, 1400, 3500 mg) alone and in combination were implanted in female calves, blood glucose, GOT, GPT, alkaline phosphatase, LDH, cholesterine and bilirubine; Hb, PVC, quick value; urine density and pH were not affected by treatment. Some criteria of the mineral metabolism (Ca- and P-levels in serum and bone) was not altered by treatment. Trenbolone (1 400 and 3 500 mg), especially with estradiol, caused a decrease of the serum Mg-level and of the Mg-deposition in the bone. It is discussed that Trenbolone affects the dig-metabolism of calves. Some morphological findings are worth mentioning. The weight of uterus was not affected by the different doses of E or T, but a combination E + T led to a surprising weight increase. The proliferation of uterine glandular cells was responsible for the increased uterine size. The lumen of uterus was partially filled with a watery liquid. The reduction of the ovarian weight was accompanied by a diminution of follicular size for all treated calves, most evident for E (200, 500 mg) + T (1400, 3500 mg). A decrease in the number of follicles was also found for these two groups. T (3500 mg) caused an abnormal size of the clitoris and led to a reduction of the size of thymus.

Oral glucose tolerance curves were constructed for 50 normal pregnant women, 25 pre-diabetics and 25 cases of diabetic pregnant women of different degrees of disturbance in carbohydrate metabolism. The mean rise in blood glucose level after the intake of 50 g glucose, was 53% in normal cases, and only 41% in the prediabetic cases, due to increased insulin secretion in the prediabetic group. This group of pregnants gave flat-topped curves in 60% of the cases studied, as compared to 10% of the normal pregnant cases in the same study. This was attributed to delayed insulin secretion in the prediabetic group. On the other hand, all diabetic cases gave peaked glucose tolerance curves during the first hour after glucose intake. The results of insulin-glucose tolerance test, effect of fasting for four hours and tolbutamide sensitivity test suggested that the prediabetic pregnants showed hyperinsulinemia which became evident during fasting. The pancreas of the prediabetic responds more readily, by the release of insulin, to the stimulus of oral hypoglycemic agents, such as sodium tolbutamide, than in the case of normal pregnants. Measurements of serum inorganic phosphorus, serum potassium and serum alkaline phosphatase of these 3 groups of pregnants, showed a definite disturbance in the liver function of the prediabetics which became more obvious in the diabetic group.

De novo synthesis of two periplasmic enzymes in Escherichia coli, alkaline phosphatase and acid hexose phosphatase, have been studied in the presence and absence of new phospholipid synthesis. Alkaline phosphatase synthesis was initiated by a temperature shift in a strain carrying a phoA amber mutation and a temperature-sensitive suppressor mutation; acid hexose phosphatase was studied after relief of catabolite repression. Glycerol auxotrophs (gpsA) were used to control phospholipid synthesis. Synthesis of both enzymes proceeded at a normal rate for 0.5 to 1.0 generation of growth, although it was then curtailed. It is concluded that secretion of these enzymes is not obligatorily coupled to new net phospholipid synthesis.

The localization of acid and alkaline phosphatases in the kidney of Cirrhinus reba, Ompak bimaculatus and Labeo gonius has been studied. In all these fishes, the enzymes are found in the proximal tubule. The activity of alkaline phosphatase is more stronger than acid phosphatase. The renal capsule, distal tubule, collecting tubule and interstitial hematopoietec tissue are all phosphatase negative. The activity is more stronger in the first proximal tubule than in the second tubule. It is probable that acid phosphatase is associated with the intracellular digestion of the macromolecules absorbed and alkaline phosphatase with the absorption of glucose from the tubular lumen.

L-Malate repressed sporulation in the wild-type strain of Bacillus subtilis. When 75 mM L-malate was added to the growth medium at the time of inoculation, the appearance of heat-resistant spores was delayed 6 to 8 h. The synthesis of extracellular serine protease, alkaline phosphatase, glucose dehydrogenase, and dipicolinic acid was similarly delayed. Sporulation was not repressed when malate was added to the culture at t4 or later. A mutant was selected for ability to sporulate in the presence of malate. This strain could also sporulate in the presence of glucose. The malate-resistant mutant grew poorly with malate as sole carbon source, although it possessed an intact citric acid cycle, and it showed increased levels of malic enzyme. This indicates a defect in the metabolism of malate in the mutant. A mutant lacking malate dehydrogenase activity was also able to sporulate in the presence of malate. A model for the regulation of sporulation by malate is presented and discussed. Citric acid cycle intermediates other than malate did not affect sporulation. In contrast to previous results, sporulation of certain citric acid cycle mutants could be greatly increased or completely restored by the addition of intermediates after the enzymatic block. The results indicate that the failure of citric acid cycle mutants to sporulate can be adequately explained by lack of energy and lack of glutamate.

Glucose dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase activities have been studied for various conditions of sporulation of Bacillus megaterium KM (carbon, nitrogen, phosphate starvation). Glucose dehydrogenase appears in all conditions of sporulation, even with excess of glucose or gluconate. Alkaline phosphatase, usually dereprimed in phosphate starvation, does not increase during sporulation of Bacillus megaterium when phosphate is present.

Forty-seven male Macaca mulatta, 3 to 4 kg weight, were inoculated intravenously or subcutaneously with various doses of yolk sac-grown Rickettsia rickettsii. Thirty-four macaques became febrile and exhibited signs of infection ranging from transient illness with a few days of fever to severe illness with subsequent death. The rash appeared more frequently in the macaques inoculated subcutaneously. Febrile macaques that survived had leukocytosis, with concomitant neutrophilia. Febrile macaques that died had, in addition, marked terminal leukopenia and thrombocytopenia. Packed cell volume of all febrile macaques decreased. In almost all of the febrile macaques, there were increased serum urea nitrogen, glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase, and lactate dehydrogenase and decreased total serum protein and amylase concentrations. A few febrile macaques had increased bilirubin values and decreased sodium, chloride, phosphorus, and alkaline phosphatase concentrations. Changes did not occur in serum glucose, potassium, calcium, and glutamic-pyruvic transaminase values. The experimental form of Rocky Mountain spotted fever in the macaque provides a subhuman primate model for studying the pathophysiology of this disease.
