investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
A Rapid Histidine Decarboxylase Assay1
Histidine decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.22) catalyzes the conversion of histidine to histamine. Because current assays for enzyme activity are time consuming and require additional enzymes or large amounts of tissue, a rapid radioisotopic assay was devised. Using commercially available radioactive histidine (without additional purification), the enzyme mediates the formation of histamine. The product...
متن کاملDeletion of histidine decarboxylase (HDC) enhances the antinociceptive effects of orexin A in the central nervous system
It has long been established that histamine plays a role as a mediator of inflammation. From numerous studies, it has been well known that the amine has many pharmacological actions on a variety of organs. To evaluate the role of histamine in pain perception, we generated HDC knockout mice using a gene targeting method. Histamine is a hydrophilic autacoid, and in most tissues it is stored and s...
متن کاملEffect of hydrocortisone on histidine decarboxylase activity in rat stomach.
Hydrocortisone-stimulated synthesis of histidine decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.22) was studied in rat stomach. Single or daily administration of hydrocortisone increased the histidine decarboxylase activity but not the histamine content in the fundic glands of stomachs from fed and fasted rats with or without adrenalectomy, and also in those from adrenalectomized fasted rats with concomitant treatmen...
