Interrelationships between Experimental Hypercholesteremia, Magnesium Requirement, and Experimental Atherosclerosis

The addition of cholesterol and cholic acid to a diet containing 24 mg. percent of magnesium, an amount normally required for young rats, resulted in magnesium deficiency in rats. This was characterized by hyperexcitability, hyperemia of the ears, calcium deposition in the kidney tubules, low serum magnesium levels, and decreased oxidative phosphorylation of heart mitochondria. All these lesion...

Tumor-host relationships. III. Composition studies on experimental tumors.

the quantitative importance of the different amino acids in the metabolic reactions of the tissue, a comparison of profiles of different tissues may serve to indicate relative, though undefined, meta bolic differences among these tissues. Quantitative studies of the free amino acid contents of tumors have generally been conducted on a single neoplasm or on several neoplasms of similar histopath...

Primary Hypercholesteremia Compared to Combined Hypercholesteremia and Hypertriglyceridemia

Total daily bile acid excretion was measured in 10 patients with primary hypercholesteremia and in nine patients with combined hypercholesteremia and hypertriglyceridermia by using "GC-labeled cholic acid and 3H-labeled chenodeoxycholic acid. The average bile acid excretion by the patients with primary hypercholesteremia was 282 mg/day; that by the patients with combined hypercholesteremia and ...

Experimental Studies on Inflammation

1. Wright's method for the study of chemotaxis of leucocytes in vitro, slightly modified, has been found to be most satisfactory in the estimation of the degree of chemotaxis of various substances, because it is possible to make an exact quantitative determination of the leucocytes that have migrated from the blood clot and adhere to the surfaces containing the tested substance. 2. The calcium ...
