The incretin concept today.
1. The insulinogenic factor of the gastrointestinal mucosa named "incretin" is only one part of the complex enteroinsular axis. --2. Of the chemically defined gastrointestinal hormones GIP is the strongest incretin candidate. --3. Because of the dual function of GIP as gastrone and insulinotropic substance several safe...

The hospital and optimal chemotherapy in schizophrenia.
With some schizophrenics, response to antipsychotic drugs is best monitored in the hospital. They include dysphoric responders, those whose illness has been only minimally responsive to antipsychotic drugs, and habitual noncompliers with drug regimen. Dysphoric responses need to be acknowledged and regarded as a danger...

The stimulation by dopamine appeared to be the result of its antagonism of inhibition of adenylate cyclase by GTP or higher concentrations of ATP. Stimulation o...

The effects of ATP, Mg(2+), and various agents on pH gradient, membrane potential, and catecholamine transport across membranes of intact bovine chromaffin vesicles were investigated. Methylamine and thiocyanate (SCN(-)) distributions across the vesicle membrane were used to estimate the H(+) concentration gradient and...

The position of regenerating cambia: auxin/sucrose ratio and the gradient induction hypothesis.
To account for the positions in which vascular cambia regenerate in wound callus, a gradient induction hypothesis was proposed in 1961 in terms of gradients in 'some factor as yet unknown'. It now seems likely that the gradient is based on morphogen diffusion between source and sink on opposite sides of existing cambia...

Rapid screening for urease inhibitors.
Two methods are described that are suitable for the rapid screening of compounds as urease inhibitors. The first utilizes an electrode sensitive to NH4+ ions; the second is dependent on pH rise. A feature of both is a direct readout of reaction rate.

Observations on the gubernaculum during descent of the testis.
The mechanisms that influence the descent of the testis are not clearly understood. The gubernaculum is a structure worthy of scrutiny inasmuch as it is conspicuous during descent, but virtually disappears after descent is complete. Early in gestation, the rat gubernacular bulb consists of loose mesenchymal cells that ...
