Brain Stem — Cerebellar and Hemispheric Blood Flow in Stupor and Impaired States of Responsiveness with and without Intracranial Hypertension
Average or regional cerebral hemispheric blood flow (RCBF) have been reported to be reduced markedly in all comatose patients studied, whether due to apoplexy, trauma, cardiac arrest, or other causes, and in p...

Industrial Production of Cyclodextrins
We isolated three alkalophilic bacteria producing large amount of cyclodextrin glycosyltransferases (CGTases). Two of the enzymes, CGTases of Bacillus No. 38–2 and Bacillus No. 17–1 were purified by starch adsorp...

The Effects of Middle Cerebral Artery Embolisation on Intracranial Pressure, Regional Cerebral Blood Flow and Regional Energy Metabolism
The brain swelling which can be due to acute occlusion of a major cerebral artery, is one of the chief causes of death and the most common problem in the surgical restoration of blood flow after an ischemic st...

Spectroscopic behavior of biliprotein from Porphyra tenera upon denaturation with urea and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)
It is well known that the biliprotein accessory photosynthetic pigments phycoerythrin (PE) and phycocyanin (PC) have been extensively studied. Both PE and PC have been shown to be composed of two kinds of subu...

Changes in Water Status of Rat Brain Tissue After Cardiocirculatory Arrest Measured by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
It is speculated that the autolysis or physicochemical changes of protein in the brain tissue after brain damage such as trauma or stroke play an important role in the development of brain edema through the in...

Some Rheological Considerations in Ischemic Cerebrovascular Disease — Blood Viscosity, RBC Aggregation, and RBC Zeta Potential
It is well known that blood viscosity is one of the most important determinants of cerebral blood flow (CBF) in normal and diseased states. It is also well recognized that blood viscosity is mainly influenced ...

Correlation Between Inhibitory Effect of Retinoid on N-Nitrosomethylbutylamine-Induced Esophageal Carcinogenesis and Levels of Cellular Retinoic Acid-Binding Protein
Epidemiological studies have suggested that low levels of serum retinol increase susceptibility to cancer [1, 2] and that there is an inverse relationship between vitamin A intake and risk of develo** cancer...

Anomalous Diffusion in a Fractal Potential
Anomalous diffusion on a fractal structure has been investigated by many authors (reviewed by Ref.[1]). Such diffusion is characterized by the the spectral (fracton) dimension[2] [3], which is defined through ...

Calcium Antagonists and a Rapid Shift of Water from Extracellular to Intracellular Space After Cerebral Ischemia
In many respects calcium plays a key role in the central nervous system. Calcium antagonists may serve as protective agents in cerebral hypoxia or ischemia and may be useful in the treatment of cerebrovascular...

Effect of Glutamate and Its Antagonist on Shift of Water from Extra- to Intracellular Space After Cerebral Ischaemia
The effects of glutamate and the excitatory amino acid antagonist, MK-801, were investigated on the time course of the shift of water from extracellular to intracellular space (progression or cytotoxic oedema)...

Peritumoral Brain Edema and Cortical Damage by Meningioma
Forty supratentorial meningiomas were analyzed to identify factors causing peritumoral brain edema. Parasagittal, sphenoid ridge, and olfactory groove meningiomas induced edema more frequently than those in ot...
