    The effects of galactosamine-induced hepatic failure upon blood-brain barrier permeability

    Full text link
    The role of changes in blood-brain barrier permeability in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy remains uncertain. To test the hypothesis that brain microvessel permeability is nonselectively increased in hepatic encephalopathy we measured the blood-brain barrier permeability-surface area product in rats with acute liver failure induced by intraperitoneal injection of galactosamine. The permeability-surface area products to the diffusion-limited tracers, sucrose and methylaminoisobutyric acid, were determined as a measure of blood-brain barrier permeability. Animals were examined 24, 36 and 42 hr after injection, at times when they were stuporous, but not comatose. No significant elevations of the permeability-surface area products for either compound were detected in clinically affected experimental animals when compared to controls. Our results indicate there is no generalized increase in brain vascular permeability during hepatic insufficiency in precomatose animals.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/38333/1/1840070307_ftp.pd

    A universal description for the experimental behavior of salt-(in)dependent oligocation-induced DNA condensation

    We report a systematic study of the condensation of plasmid DNA by oligocations with variation of the charge, Z, from +3 to +31. The oligocations include a series of synthetic linear ε-oligo(l-lysines), (denoted εKn, n = 3–10, 31; n is the number of lysines equal to the ligand charge) and branched α-substituted homologues of εK10: εYK10, εLK10 (Z = +10); εRK10, εYRK10 and εLYRK10 (Z = +20). Data were obtained by light scattering, UV absorption monitored precipitation assay and isothermal titration calorimetry in a wide range concentrations of DNA and monovalent salt (KCl, CKCl). The dependence of EC50 (ligand concentration at the midpoint of DNA condensation) on CKCl shows the existence of a salt-independent regime at low CKCl and a salt-dependent regime with a steep rise of EC50 with increase of CKCl. Increase of the ligand charge shifts the transition from the salt-independent to salt-dependent regime to higher CKCl. A novel and simple relationship describing the EC50 dependence on DNA concentration, charge of the ligand and the salt-dependent dissociation constant of the ligand–DNA complex is derived. For the ε-oligolysines εK3–εK10, the experimental dependencies of EC50 on CKCl and Z are well-described by an equation with a common set of parameters. Implications from our findings for understanding DNA condensation in chromatin are discussed
