Plasma concentrations of tryptophan and dieting.
(1) Lung function should be adequate and stable before transfer. (2) Humidification of inspired air should be adequate before and during transport, particularly for patients with an endotracheal tube or tracheostomy. If secretions are sticky 2 ml ofwarm saline can be passed down the endotracheal tube or tracheostomy tube at frequent intervals. (3) Supplemental oxygen should be available. (4) Pa...
متن کاملTryptophan and the control of plasma glucose concentrations in the rat.
1. Injection of L-tryptophan (750 mg/kg body wt.) led to pronounced hypoglycaemia in fed and 48 h-starved rats. 2. The hypoglycaemic effect is blocked by pretreament with p-chlorophenylalanine, compound MK-486 [Carbidopa: L-alpha-(3,4-dihydroxybenzyl)-alpha-hydrazinopropionic acid monohydrate] or methysergide, and potentiated by pargyline. 3. 5-Hydroxy-L-tryptophan is more potent and induces a ...
متن کاملAnticonvulsant drugs alter plasma tryptophan concentrations in epileptic patients: implications for antiepileptic action and mental function.
In epileptic patients carbamazepine and diphenylhydantoin have opposite effects on whole and free plasma tryptophan concentrations, the former elevating and the latter depressing them. It is unlikely that these observations relate to the similar anti-epileptic properties of these two drugs but they may relate to their different effects on mental function and mood.
متن کاملNormal Range of Total Plasma Homocysteine Concentrations in Southern Iran
The distribution of total plasma homocysteine concentrations in relation to the sex and age is described, in a population of Shiraz, South West of Iran and compared to those reported in other populations. Two hundred and one healthy males and 201 healthy females aged >15 y were randomly selected. Total Plasma homocysteine concentrations were measured using high performance liquid chromatograp...
متن کاملEffects of Heat Stress and Dietary Tryptophan on Performance and Plasma Amino Acid Concentrations of Broiler Chickens
Two experiments were conducted to investigate the impact of high temperature and dietary tryptophan (Trp) on performance, selected organ weights and plasma free amino acid (AA) concentrations in broiler chickens. In Experiment 1, exposure to 27-33°C of chickens for 2 weeks from 2 weeks of age did not affect growth and plasma free AA concentration except for a decrease in the concentration of pl...
