Ecological niche modeling of Francisella tularensis subspecies and clades in the United States.
Two subspecies of Francisella tularensis are recognized: F. tularensis subsp. tularensis (type A) and F. tularensis subsp. holartica (type B). Type A has been subdivided further into A1a, A1b, and A2, which differ geographically and clinically. The aim of this work was to determine whether or not differences among subspecies and clades translate into distinct ecological niches. We used 223 isol...
متن کاملPlatelet thromboxane B2 production in neonatal pulmonary hypertension.
Production of platelet thromboxane B2, a stable metabolite of thromboxane A2, was measured in seven newborn infants with pulmonary hypertension during the first day of life. Platelet thromboxane B2 production was significantly lower than in 12 healthy controls but did not correlate with simultaneous blood gas values.
متن کاملActivation of liver mitochondrial phospholipase A2 by superoxide.
Mitochondrial damage is one of the prominent features of cell injury during oxidative stress and altered mitochondrial lipids may contribute to this damage. Lipid changes were observed when liver mitochondria were exposed to superoxide generating systems. Phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine contents were decreased with simultaneous formation of lysophospholipids when exposed to sup...
متن کاملSilicon switch approach in TRPV1 antagonist MK-056 and its analogues.
In searching for opportunities to exploit the benefits of silicon in TRPV1 research, we tried to investigate the pharmacological effects of sila-substitution (C/Si exchange) of tert-butyl group in the MK-056 series. Compound 13a, with a 4-positioned trimethylsilanyl group on the B ring in place of tert-butyl group, exhibited the most potent antagonist activity with IC(50) values of 0.15 microM,...
متن کاملNebulisation of surfactants in an animal model of neonatal respiratory distress.
AIMS To evaluate pulmonary deposition and gas exchange following nebulisation of two surfactants by either a jet or an ultrasonic nebuliser. METHOD After bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), 19 rabbits were ventilated in four groups. Group A1 (n = 5) and A2 (n = 6) received Technetium-99m labelled Exosurf, and groups B1 (n = 4) and B2 (n = 4) received radiolabelled Survanta. Groups A1 and B1 receive...
