The crystal structures of the (R)-enantiomer (2b) and the racemate (1 b) of (cyclohexyl)phenyl[2- (pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethyl]silanol (sila--procyclidine) have been determined by X -ray structural analysis. The absolute configuration of (2b) was established. (2b) crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P2\(_1\)2\(_1\)2\(_1\), with a = 15.221 (1 ), b = 17.967(1 ), c = 6.463(1) A, and Z = 4. (1 b) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2\(_1\)/c, with a = 6.441 (1 ), b = 17.1 82(7), c = 16.707(4) A, ß = 1 03.86(2r, and Z = 4. The structures were refined to respective R factors of 0.044 and 0.058. The molecular conformation of sila-procyclidine is identical in the two different structures. lntermolecular 0-H • • • N hydrogen bonding is observed in both crystallattices.ln (1 b) (R)- and (S)-configurated molecules form centrosymmetric dimers, in (2b) the (R)-configurated molecules are linked into infinite chains parallel to the c axis. The (R)-configurated sila--procyclidine (2b) has higher affinity for ileal and atrial muscarinic receptors of the guinea pig than the (S)-configurated enantiomer (3b).
In dieser Habilitationsschrift wird das Gesamtgebiet des Wärmetransports in dispersen Medien untersucht, kompakt, ohne Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit, jedoch mit Schwerpunkt auf Strahlungstransport in nicht-transparenten Medien; hier sind es bevorzugt hochporöse Substanzen, die aus Festkörperteilchen bestehen. Die Ergebnisse lassen sich auf andere disperse nicht-transparente Medien wie dichte Gasatmosphären oder einige Zweiphasengemische übertragen, wenn Nicht-Strahlungsanteile und Gesamt-Energieerhaltung korrekt formuliert werden. Die vorliegenden Untersuchungen konzentrieren sich auf stationäre Randbedingungen und Strahlungsquellen. Die Motivation zu dieser Arbeit ist mindestens zweifach: Die Trennung des totalen Wärmestroms in seine Komponenten, in irgendeinem kontinuierlichen oder dispersen Medium, ist eines der herausfordernden, gleichzeitig schwierigsten physikalischen Probleme bei der Analyse des Wärmetransports; zum zweiten ist es für die Verringerung von Wärmeverlusten (z. B. in thermischen Isolierungen) dringend erforderlich, die einzelnen Komponenten der Wärmeverlustströme zu kennen, um sie einzeln zu minimieren (das geht offensichtlich nur, wenn man den totalen Wärmstrom in seine Komponenten zerlegen kann). Die Trennung kann erfolgreich sein, wenn die optische Dicke des untersuchten Mediums sehr groß ist (das Medium ist dann nicht-transparent). In dieser idealen, in der Energietechnik jedoch häufig auftretenden Situation (und nicht nur dort), liefert das Strahlungsdiffusionsmodell den korrekten Ansatz zur Beschreibung des Strahlungsanteils und dessen Temperaturabhängigkeit. Wegen Energieerhaltung und mit der additiven Näherung erlaubt dieses Ergebnis umgekehrt die Berechnung auch der Nichtstrahlungsanteile im totalen Wärmestrom; diese sind demnach alle gleichzeitig in kalorimetrischen Messungen zugänglich. Damit wird nachfolgende separate Analyse dieser Komponenten mittels geeigneter theoretischer Modelle möglich. Da das Temperaturprofil im Medium alle Wärmestromkomponenten zum totalen Wärmestrom miteinander koppelt, ist für diesen Ansatz die Kenntnis der Temperaturabhängigkeit auch aller Nicht-Strahlungsanteile erforderlich. Neben der kalorimetrischen Methode kann die Bestimmung der Extinktion des dispersen Mediums und hiermit des Strahlungstransports auch mittels Spektroskopie sowie Berechnung nach der strengen Mie-Theorie der Lichtstreuung und mit dem Rosseland-Mittelwert vorgenommen werden. Dadurch wird ein Vergleich möglich zwischen Ergebnissen, die mittels drei voneinander völlig unabhängiger Methoden, nämlich kalorimetrisch, spektroskopisch und analytisch/numerisch erzielt wurden. Die Ergebnisse stimmen überein, wenn das Medium nicht-transparent ist; dieser Nachweis wird in der vorliegenden Habilitationsschrift geführt. Im ersten Teil der Habilitationsschrift wird in breit angelegtem Review die Fachliteratur zum Strahlungstransport bis zum Jahr 1985 diskutiert und Methoden zur Lösung der Strahlungstransportgleichung auch im Fall stark anisotroper Streuung beschrieben. Wegen der Forderung nach Energieerhaltung und mit dem oben genannten Ziel, auch die Nicht-Strahlungskomponenten zu analysieren, muß diese Diskussion die theoretischen Aspekte auch dieser Anteile (hier Gas- und Festkörperkontakt-Wärmetransport) einschließen. Den Schluß des ersten Teils bildet ein Katalog offener Fragen, die im zweiten Teil der Habilitationsschrift angegangen werden. Dort werden mittels experimenteller und analytisch/numerischer Ergebnisse das Strahlungsdiffusionsmodell und seine Anwendbarkeit auf disperse nicht-transparente Medien bestätigt. Die Analysen sind gerichtet auf reine oder mit Infrarot-Trübungsmitteln dotierte Pulver und Faserpapiere; beide sind leicht zugängliche, wohl-definierte Testsubstanzen disperser Medien. Ein wichtiger Teil dieser Untersuchungen enthält Messungen ihrer Wärmeleitfähigkeit unter Vakuum und unter externer mechanischer Druckbelastung. Mit evakuierten, druckbelasteten Faserpapieren wurden Wärmeleitfähigkeiten erzielt, die zu den niedrigsten gehören, die bis 1985 an solchen Medien bei hohen Temperaturen gemessen wurden. Weiter sollen optimale Teilchendurchmesser gefunden werden, mit denen das Extinktionsvermögen solcher Schüttungen signifikant erhöht werden kann. Insbesondere ist eine exotische Vorhersage der Mie-Theorie zu prüfen, nach welcher die Extinktion perfekt elektrisch leitender, langer, extrem dünner Zylinder (unter 50 nm) um Größenordnungen über derjenigen herkömmlicher (nichtleitender) Pulver oder Fasern liegt; hierfür sind Materialproben herzustellen. In der Habilitationsschrift wird aufgezeigt, welcher Weg für diesen Nachweis beschritten werden muß (wenige Jahre nach Vorlage der Habilitationsschrift wurden Gustav Mies und Milton Kerkers Vorhersagen auf diesem Weg mit feinsten metallisierten Glasfasern und mit Nickelfasern in Veröffentlichungen des Autors gemeinsam mit J. Fricke, M. Arduini-Schuster, H.-P. Ebert, R. Caps, D. Büttner und A. Kreh erstmalig bestätigt).
Adenosine receptors in guinea pig lung were characterized by measurement of cyclic AMP formation and radioligand binding. 5'-N-Ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (NECA) increased cyclic AMP Ievels in lung slices about 4-fold over basal values with an EC\(_{50}\) of 0.32 \(\mu\)mol/l. N\(^6\) - R-(- )-Phenylisopropyladenosine (R-PIA) was 5-fold less potent than NECA. 5'-N-Methylcarboxamidoadenosine (MECA) and 2-chloroadenosine had EC\(_{50}\)-values of 0.29 and 2.6 \(\mu\)mol/l, whereas adenosine and inosine had no effect. The adenosine receptors in guinea pig Iung can therefore be classified as A\(_2\) receptors. Several xanthine derivatives antagonized the NECA-induced increase in cyclic AMP levels. 1,3-Diethyl-8-phenylxanthine (DPX; K\(_i\) 0.14 \(\mu\)mol/l) was the most potent analogue, followed by 8-phenyltheophylline (K\(_i\) 0.55 \(\mu\)mol/l), 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX; K\(_i\) 2.9 \(\mu\)mol/l) and theophylline (K\(_i\) 8.1 \(\mu\)mol/l). In contrast, enprofylline (1 mmol/1) enhanced basal and NECA-stimulated cyclic AMP formation. In addition, we attempted to characterize these receptors in binding studies with [\(^3\)H]NECA. The K\(_D\) for [\(^3\)H] NECA was 0.25 \(\mu\)mol/l and the maximal number of binding sites was 12 pmol/mg protein. In competition experiments MECA (K\(_i\) 0.14 \(\mu\)mol/l) was the most potent inhibitor of [\(^3\)H] NECA binding, followed by NECA (K\(_i\) 0.19 \(\mu\)mol/l) and 2-chloroadenosine (K\(_i\) 1.4 \(\mu\)mol/l). These results correlate well with the EC\(_{50}\)- values for cyclic AMP formation in lung slices. However, the K\(_i\)-values of R-PIA and theophylline were 240 and 270 \(\mu\)mol/l, and DPX and 8-phenyltheophylline did not compete for [\(^3\)H]NECA binding sites. Therefore, a complete characterization of A\(_2\) adenosine receptors by [\(^3\)H] NECA binding was not achieved. In conclusion, our results show the presence of adenylate cyclase-coupled A\(_2\) adenosiile receptors in lung tissue which are antagonized by several xanthines.
The ligand-binding subunit of the A\(_1\)-adenosine receptor has been identified by photoaffinity labeling. A photolabile derivative of R- \(N^6\)-phenylisopropyladenosine, R-2-azido-\(N^6\)-p-hydroxyphenylisopropyladenosine (R-AHPIA), has been synthesized as a covalent specific Iigand for A\(_1\)-adenosine receptors. In adenylate cyclase studies with membranes of rat fat cells and human platelets, R·AHPIA has adenosine receptor agonist activity with a more than 60-fold selectivity for the A\(_1\)-subtype. It competes for [\(^3\)H].\(N^6\)- phenylisopropyladenosine binding to Arreceptors of rat brain membranes with a Ki value of 1.6 nM. After UV irradiation, R-AHPIA binds irreversibly to the receptor, as indicated by a loss of [\(^3\)H)\(N^6\)-phenylisopropyladenosine binding afterextensive washing; the K; value for this photoinactivation is 1.3 nM. The p-hydroxyphenyl substituent of R-AHPIA can be directly radioiodinated to give a photoaffinity Iabel of high specific radioactivity (\(^{125}\)I-AHPIA). This compound has a KD value of about 1.5 nM as assessed from saturation and kinetic experiments. Adenosine analogues compete for \(^{125}\)I-AHPIA binding to rat brain membranes with an order of potency characteristic for A\(_1\)-adenosine receptors. Dissociation curves following UV irradiation at equilibrium demonstrate 30-40% irreversible specific binding. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicates that the probe is photoincorporated into a single peptide of M\(_r\) = 35,000. Labeling of this peptide can be blocked specifically and stereoselectively by adenosine receptor agonists and antagonists in a manner which is typical for the A\(_1\)-subtype. The results indicate that \(^{125}\)I-AHPIA identifies the ligand-binding subunit of the A\(_1\)-adenosine receptor, which is a peptide with M\(_r\) = 35,000.
Barbiturates in pharmacologically relevant . concentrations inhibit binding of (R)-\(N^6\)-phenylisopropyl[\(^3\)H]adenosine ([\(^3\)H]PIA) to solubilized A\(_1\) adenosine receptors in a concentration-dependent, stereospecific, and competitive manner. K\(_i\) values are similar to those obtained for membrane-bound receptors and are 31 \(\mu\)M for ( ± )-5-(1 ,3-dimethyl)-5-ethylbarbituric acid [( ± )DMBB] and 89 \(\mu\)M for ( ± )-pentobarbital. Kinetic experiments demoostrate that barbiturates compete directly for the binding site of the receptor. The inhibition of rat striatal adenylate cyclase by unlabelled (R)-\(N^6\)-phenylisopropyladenosine [(R)-PIA] is antagonized by barbiturates in the same concentrations that inhibit radioligand binding. The Stimulation of adenylate cyclase via A\(_2\) adenosine receptors in membranes from NIE 115 neuroblastoma cells is antagonized only by 10-30 times higher concentrations of barbiturates. lt is concluded that barbiturates are selective antagonists at the A1 receptor subtype. In analogy to the excitatory effects of methylxanthines it is suggested that A\(_1\) adenosine receptor antagonism may convey excitatory properties to barbiturates. Key Words: Adenosine receptors-Barbiturates - Adenylate cyclase-Receptor solubilization-[3H]PIA binding-N1E 115 cells. Lohse M. J. et al. Barbiturates are selective antagonists at A1 adenosine receptors.
The haemolysin (hly) determinant of the plasmid pHly152 contains an IS2 element at 469 bp upstream of the hlyC gene. The sequence at the other (right-hand) end (RS) also shows multiple hybridization with the plasmid pHly152 and the chromosome of some Escherichia coli strains but the nucleotide sequence of this region does not reveal the typical properties of an IS element. Similar arrangements in the regions flanking the hly determinant are also found on various Hly plasmids from uropathogenic E. coli strains. Chromosomal hly determinants Iack both flanking sequences (IS2 and RS) in the immediate vicinity of the hly genes. The sequences immediately upstream of the hlyC gene have been determined from several chromosomal hly determinants and compared with the corresponding sequence of the hly determinant of the plasmid pHly152. We show that these sequences, which contain one promoter (left promoter, phlyL) in all hly determinants tested, vary considerably although common sequence elements can still be identified. In contrast, only relatively few nucleotide exchanges have been detected in the adjacent structural hlyC genes. The A + T content of the 200 bp sequence upstream of hlyC is very high (72 mol% A + T) but even the structural hly genes show a considerably higher A + T content (about 60 mol%) than the E. coli chromosome on average (50 mol% A+T) suggesting that the hly determinant may not have originated in E. coli.
We investigated the role of bacterial adherence and hemolysin production from Escherichia coli parent and genetically cloned strains as to their eft'ects on bistaJidne release from rat mast cells and leukotriene generation from human polymorphonuclear granulocytes. These mediators were involved in the induction of inftammatory disease processes and led, for example, to enhancement of vascular permeability, chemotaxis (leukotriene 84 [LTB4]), chemoaggregation, lysosomal enzyme release, and smooth muscle contraction, (LTC4, LTD4 , and LTE4). Washed bacteria (E. coli K-12 Ms+ my=; E. coli 536 Ms+ MR= my=) as weil as their culture supematants were analyzed. Washed E. coli K-12 (Hiy+), unlike Hly- strains, induced high amounts of histamine release from rat mast cells and chemotactic activity from human polymorphonuclear granulocytes. Significant leukotriene releasewas obtained with washed E. coli K-12 my+ strains and their bacterial culture supematants. Leukotriene induction was dependent on the amount of hemolysin activity present in the supematant. However, additional soluble factors should also be considered. The presence of hemolysin appeared to aceeierate and enhance the rate of phagocytosis of bacteria by neutrophUs. When E. coli 536 (MS+ MR= Hly=) strains were analyzed, the simultaneous presence of MR+ pili and hemolysin production led to an increase in histamine release as compared with MR- my+ strains. The genetically cloned MR+ my+ E. coli 536 strain induced higher amounts of IeukotrieDes as compared with the wUd-type strain. Our data soggest a potent role for adhesins and hemolysin as virulence factors in inducing the release of inftammatory mediators.
The Qropathogenic Escherichia coli strain 536 (06:K15:H31) exhibits a mannose-resistant hemagglutination phenotype (Mrh) with bovine erythrocytes and delayed Mrh with human and guinea pig erythrocytes. Neuraminidase treatment of the erythrocytes abolishes mannose resistant hemagglutination, which is typical for X fimbriae. E. coli strain 536 synthesizes two different fimbriae (Fim phenotype) prQtein subunits, 16.5 and 22 kilodaltons in size. In addition the strain shows mannose-sensitive hemagglutination and common type I (Fl) fimbriae. The cosmid clone E. coli K-12(pANN801) and another nine independently isolated Mrh+ cosmid clones derived from a cosmid gene bank of strain 536 express the 16.5-kilodalton protein band, bot not the 22-kilodalton protein, indicating an association of the Mrh+ property with the "16.5-kilodalton fimbriae." All cosmid clones were fimbriated, and they reacted with antiserum produced against Mrh+ fimbriae of the E. coli strain HB101(pANN801) and lacked mannose-sensitive hemagglutination (Fl) funbriae. From the Mrh fim cosmid DNA pANN801, several subclones coding for hemagglutination and X fimbriae were constructed. Subclones that express both hemagglutination and fimbriae and subclones that only code for the hemagglutination antigen were isolated; subclones that only produce fimbriae were not detected. By transposon Tn5 mutagenesis we demonstrated that about 6.5 kilobases of DNA is required for the Mrh+ Fim+ phenotype, and the 1.5- to 2-kilobase DNA region coding for the structural proteiil of the fimbriae has been mapped adjacent to the region responsible for the Mrh+ phenotype. Two different regions can thus be distinguished in the adhesion determinant, one coding for hemagglutination and the other coding for fimbria formation. Transformation of plasmid DNA from these subclones into a Mrh- Fim- mutant of E. coli 536 and into a galE (rough) strain of Salmonella typhimurium yielded transformants that expressed both hemagglutination and fimbria production.

The He (I) photoelectron spectra of 2-bicyclo[2.1.l]hexene (1), 2,3-bis(methylene)bicyclo[2.1.l]hexane (3), and 3,4-bis(methylene)tricyclo[3.l.O.0\(^{2.6}\)]hexane (4) have been investigated. The assignment given is based on a ZDO model and semiempirical calculations. Tagether with the PE data of benzvalene (2), the reported data allow a comparison between 1-2 and 3-4. This yields a measure of the interactions between 8 cyclobutane or 8 bicyclobutane moiety and a double bond system within a ZDO model. The resonance integral found in the case of 1 and 3 amounts to -1.9 eV, that for 2 and 4, to -2.3 eV. The investigations furthermore reveal that the electronic factors which contribute to the higher reactivity of the bicyclobutane compounds amount to 5 kcal/mol.
In den Reaktionen von Tetracyanethylen (TCNE) und 5,6-Dichlor-2,3-dicyan-p-benzochinon mit Benzvalen haben wir kürzlich die ersten Beispiele für die lange gesuchte einstufige 1,4-Cycloaddition eines Alkens an ein Vinylcyclopropan gcfunden(I~J. Sie ist als [(.,2.+.2s)+ 112J-Prozeß der Dicls-Alder-Addition nahe verwandtllbl. Allerdings entsteht das betreffende TCNE-Addukt, ein Dihydrosemibullvalen-Derivat, nur in einer Ausbeute von wenigen Prozent. Die Hauptprodukte gehen aus einer Zwitterionischen Zwischenstufe hervor, die durch Anlagerung von TCNE an die Benzvalen-n-Bindung resultiert.

In this study we report that cloned Thy-l +, L3T4-, Lyt-l-, Lyt-2+, H-Y-specific and H-2Db-restricted cytotoxic T ce11 lines (CTLL) when indueed by lectin or antigen secrete a soluble mediator(s) (SF) that inhibits proliferation and generation of cytotoxic lymphocytes (CTL) in mixed lymphocyte cultures (MLC). The biological activity was separable by gel filtration and appeared as a broad peak in the moleeular mass range between 10000 and 50000 kDa. It was found that the suppressive activity released by CTLL neither strictly correlates with their cytotoxic potential nor with their ability to produce immune interferon or Iymphotoxin. SF was shown to elicitits activity in an antigen-nonspeeific manner in that it suppressed the maturation of T lymphocytes responding to both, the appropriate H-Y antigen as weH as to unrelated H_2d alloantigens or to the hapten 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl (TNP). The effect of SF on CTL responses was most pronounced in early phases of primary or secondary MLC. When analyzed for its inhibitory activity on precursor ceHs in populations selected for either Lyt-2- or L3T4- lymphocytes, it was found that SF interfered with the maturation of both subsets. The inhibition of CTL responses elicited by SF could not be reversed by the addition of exogenous interleukin 2. The findtng that SF also inhi. bited the proliferation of some but not a11 antigen-dependent cloned T ceHs with helper or eytc'toxic potential provides evidence that the faetor also may regulate effector lymphl)cytes. In addition, the results support the assumption that SF exerts its effect direetly on the responder rather than the stimulator population, and demonstrate that the development of CTL from their preeursor eeHs is contro11ed at least in part by the eytotoxic effeetor cells themselves via a soluble factor(s) that interferes with distinct stages of T ce11 maturation. These findings again emphasize the expression of multiple functions by CTL and indieate their possible role du ring the course of an immune response by their capability to eliminate target cells and to secrete a soluble product(s) that mediates feedback contro!.

Male Fischer F-344 rats were given ethanol in the drinking water and/or by single oral administration. Following this, the animals received p.o. 100 ng/kg of the hepatocarcinogen eHJaflatoxin BI (AFBI)' 24 h later, the level of DNA-bound AFBI was determined in the liver and was found not to be affected by any type of ethanol pretreatment. A cocarcinogenic effect of ethanol in the liver is therefore unlikely to be due to an effect on the metabolic activation and inactivation processes governing the formation of DNA-binding AFBI metabolites.
