For the establishment of the experimental system to judge easily the effect of anti-inflammatory drug, 67Ga-citrate was used. The weight of granuloma tissues induced by inflammable agent, turpentine oil, gradually increased and reached a maximum at 6 days after the administration of turpentine oil. Gallium-67 accumulation in the inflammatory lesions showed also a maximum at 6 days after that. B...

Duodenum, spleen and liver have a crucial role in iron balance on the whole organism and are the major sites of Ferroportin (FPN) expression. Specific regulations between FPN and hepcidin are responsible for changes seen in physiopathological conditions such as inflammation. We studied in vivo effects of turpentine oil-induced acute inflammation on FPN expression, and its relation with prohepci...

A soap-water enema was given without effect. A dorsal slit was made and the meatus was exposed. A rubber catheter proving ineffective, a small-sized metal catheter was passed very slowly and carefully and an ordinary kidney tray full of urine was drawn off very slowly. Multiple incisions on the scrotum, penis and perineum were then made, and the catheter tied up. Turpentine stupes to the abdome...

The acute effects of a single intravenous dose of iasparaginase on protein synthesis were studied in normal rabbits and in animals that had received turpentine to stimulate fibrinogen production. Male New Zealand rabbits received 1-asparaginase (500 U/kg) 16 hr before the injection of the radiolabeled amino acid [75Sejselenomethionine (75SeM). Incorporation of 75SeM into fibrinogen and serum pr...
