BZ 55 in Diabetes

[Studies on the hypoglycemic mechanism of BZ-55 (carbutamide) with reference to the metabolism of the drug itself].

Kazuo NAKADA Ist Clinic, Dept. of Internal Medicine Wakayama Medical College (Instructed by Prof. Ryuzo Iwatsuru) BZ55 (carbutamide) has been studied in vitro and in vive as a series of the experiment on the hypoglycemic mechanism of sulfonylurea. 1) BZ55 administered to rabbit was recovered for the most part in the body fluid and the excretion of the agent to be dependent on the kidney on the ...

vascular diseases. Interest of many authors has been to isolate laboratory values associated with a high risk of the onset or worsening of clinical coronary artery disease. Afterwards, a possible link of these values with chronic infection carrier status was sought. Many conditions related with vascular pathology, such as hypercoagulability, presence of circulating immune complexes and oxidativ...

index (BMI, kg/m2) studies have been conducted in twins8, adoptees9, and family members10. The most convincing evidence that obesity is largely a genetic disease comes from studies of monozygotic twins reared apart. These studies are based on the assumption that when genetically identical individuals are separated at a young age and assigned randomly to different families, their shared environm...

Dynamics of the Oscillation Phase Distribution in the BZ Reaction

Oscillation phase dynamics in the homogeneous autooscillating Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction has been studied by computer simulations. The wave dynamics in autooscillating media is qualitatively di erent from those in excitable media for su ciently long waves. We propose a classi cation of chemical waves which is based on the analysis of shape of the dispersion curve. This delimits conventi...
