Introduction One of the rare problems in newborns is ascites. Almost 30 percent of neonatal ascites is caused by urinary disease. The most common cause is urinary tract obstruction from posterior urethral valve. Case Report In this case report, we present a two-day boy with urinary ascites at Akbar hospital Mashhad, Iran, it ...

A polypeptide of Mr 26,000 and pI 6.7 that was markedly increased in rat livers bearing hyperplastic nodules (HNs) induced by chemical carcinogens was identified immunochemically as the subunit of neutral glutathione (GSH) transferase (GSHTase; RX:glutathione R-transferase, EC 2.5.1.18; also called GSH S-transferase) purified from placenta (GSHTase-P) and was demonstrated immunohistochemically ...

Nucleolar 28 S, 35 S, and 45 S RNA's were isolated from normal rat liver, Novikoff hepatoma ascites cells, and Morris hepatoma 9618A after short (60 min) and long (6 hr) labeling with orthophosphate-32p. After purification by sucrose density sedimentation, the 32p nucleotide composition of these RNA's was determined. The RNA was hydrolyzed to oligonucleotides with pancreatic ribonuclease. The d...

A study of the chemical and kinetic properties of a series of transplantable, chemically induced rat hepatomas has revealed profound alterations in isozyme patterns of glycogen synthetase and phosphorylase. Highly differentiated, slow-growing hepatomas retain the liver-type isozymes, but with decreased differentiation and increased growth rate these are largely or entirely replaced by nonhepati...
