polycythemia/carbohydrate

The primary envelope (env) gene product of the polycythemia-inducing variant of Friend spleen focus-forming virus (F-SFFVP), representing a glycoprotein with an apparent Mr of 52,000 (gp52), was isolated from F-SFFVP-infected normal rat kidney cells metabolically labeled with [2-3H]mannose in the

The secondary envelope-gene product, glycoprotein 65 (gp65), of the polycythemia-inducing variant of Friend spleen focus-forming virus (F-SFFVp) was isolated from F-SFFVp-infected normal rat kidney cells cultivated in the presence or absence (-Glc) of glucose. Oligosaccharide side chains present

The primary envelope gene product of the polycythemia-inducing strain of Friend spleen focus-forming virus, glycoprotein 52 (gp52), as well as its processed form, glycoprotein 65 (gp65), were isolated from virus-infected normal rat kidney cells metabolically labeled with [2-3H]mannose. Following

The authors studied dyslipidaemia and "obesity" in 137 patients (87 males and 50 females) following cadaver renal transplantation with regard to the applied immunosuppressive treatment and the patients' hypertension. The most extreme dyslipidaemic values, the highest levels of total cholesterol, LDL

The importance of platelet-activating factor (PAF) in producing hypotension, hemoconcentration and alterations in carbohydrate metabolism following thermal injury was investigated in chronically catheterized rats. Animals were fasted overnight, anesthetized with pentobarbital, and then injected with

Some aspects of the toxic effects of nickel were studied in a toxicological experiment for one year on male albino rats, administered perorally nickel in doses 0.0005, 0.005, 0.05 and 0.5 mg/kg, corresponding to 1/10 of the Soviet MAC respectively, MAC, 10 MAC and 100 MAC of nickel in potable

Mutations in VHL, which encodes von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor (VHL), are associated with divergent diseases. We describe a patient with marked erythrocytosis and prominent mitochondrial alterations associated with a severe germline VHL deficiency due to homozygosity for a novel

Essential thrombocythemia is a myeloproliferative disorder characterized by frequent bleeding and thrombotic complications. On a molecular level, two abnormalities of platelet thrombospondin have been identified: abnormal glycosylation of the intact 185,000-dalton chain has been detected and a

BACKGROUND Neonatal hypoglycemia is the most common carbohydrate metabolic disturbance seen in case of neonates and especially in preterm neonates. Accurate and rapid determination of hypoglycemia and its prompt treatment is of utmost importance to decrease morbidity and mortality of

Although erythroid abnormalities (anemia and polycythemia) are commonly observed pathological conditions, not much information about borderline abnormalities is available. In this study, a cross-sectional study to analyze the relationships between erythropoiesis and nutrition, physical features, and

In seven splenectomised dogs a left renal vein-splenic vein anastomosis was performed and the right kidney removed. Eighteen to twenty-four months after portalisation of renal venous blood no significant alterations of liver function tests were found. Long-term diversion of renal venous blood into

We report the beneficial effect of control of anemia on hyperinsulinemia and hypoxemia in a hemodialysis patient with corrected transposition of the great arteries. The patient's hemoglobin (Hb) level of 10.3 g/dl on admission represents good control for hemodialysis (HD) patients, but it was too

In clonal aberrations leading to an excess or partial excess of chromosome 1, trisomy for bands 1q25-1q32 was noted in the myeloid cells from all of 34 patients who had various disorders such as acute leukemia, polycythemia vera, and myelofibrosis. This was not the result of a particularly fragile
