Platelet adhesion in hyperlipidemic and hypertensive patients.
Brook JG, Marmur A, Berkovitch Y, Aviram M.
Platelet adhesion was studied in whole blood using a simple stagnation flow method in patients at high risk for the development of atherosclerosis. Fourteen patients with hypercholesterolemia, 26 with hypertriglyceridemia and 25 normolipidemic hypertensive subjects were compared with 75 normal (normotensive and normolipidemic) subjects. Increased platelet adhesion was found in hypercholesterolemic (but not hypertriglyceridemic) patients only when native blood with no anticoagulants was used. In hypertensive patients, platelet adhesion was significantly elevated, but remarkably reduced by beta-blocker drugs. Propranolol and atenolol significantly reduced platelet adhesion, but this effect was found to take a longer time than that required for significant blood pressure reduction.

Uniparental disomy (UPD) has been shown to result in specific disorders either due to imprinting and/or homozygosity of mutant alleles. Here we present the findings in a child with paternal UPD14. Ultrasound evaluation was performed at 30 weeks of gestation because of abnormally large uterine size. Pertinent ultrasound findings included polyhydramnios, short limbs, abnormal position of hands, small thorax, and nonvisualization of the fetal stomach. Post-natally the infant was found to have a low birth weight, short birth length, contractures, short limbs, and a small thorax with upslanting ribs. Assisted ventilation and gastrostomy were required. At age 6 months, the infant required hospitalization for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy which responded to Atenolol. Initial cytogenetic studies demonstrated an apparently balanced de novo Robertsonian translocation involving chromosomes 14 and a karyotype designation of 45,XY,t(14q14q). No indication of mosaicism for trisomy 14 was observed in metaphase spreads prepared from peripheral blood lymphocytes or skin-derived fibroblasts. C-band and fluorescence in situ hybridization results demonstrated that the chromosome was dicentric. DNA analyses showed paternal uniparental isodisomy for chromosome 14. Based on the cytogenetic and DNA results a final karyotype designation of 45,XY,idic(14)(p11) was assigned to this infant with paternal isodisomy of chromosome 14.

Analysis of the hyperpolarizing effect of catecholamines on canine cardiac Purkinje fibres.

1. The hyperpolarization induced by catecholamines on barium-depolarized (0.2-0.8 mM BaCl) canine cardiac Purkinje fibres, in vitro, was studied by use of conventional microelectrode recordings of transmembrane electrical potentials. 2. Noradrenaline, adrenaline and isoprenaline hyperpolarized Purkinje fibres in a concentration-dependent manner from a threshold concentration around 5 nM. The three catecholamines were shown to be approximately equipotent. Tachyphylaxis was observed when the interval between catecholamine applications was less than 15 min. 3. Atenolol (10 microM) blocked the hyperpolarization reversibly and theophylline (0.5 mM) potentiated it. 4. Tetrodotoxin (5 microM) did not affect the hyperpolarization induced by isoprenaline. Acetylcholine and histamine, up to 10 microM, were not effective in hyperpolarizing Purkinje fibres. 5. Low extracellular potassium concentrations (zero and 1 mM) did not affect the hyperpolarization, but high extracellular potassium concentrations (10-20 mM), markedly reduced the effect of isoprenaline (100 nM). 6. Reduction of the extracellular sodium concentration produced a roughly proportional reduction in the isoprenaline-induced hyperpolarization. The hyperpolarization was reversibly blocked in 34 mM sodium Tris-Tyrode solution. 7. The hyperpolarization was not reduced in Tyrode solution containing 0.6 mM calcium, but was drastically reduced in zero-calcium Tyrode solution. This effect was reversible. 8. Addition of verapamil (5-10 microM) diminished the hyperpolarization, in a concentration-dependent manner. This effect was partially reversed after washing. 9. Ouabain (0.7-1 microM) significantly reduced the isoprenaline-induced hyperpolarization, but 2,4-dinitrophenol (0.2 mM) did not affect it. 10.Caesium chloride (20 mM) abolished the hyperpolarization. The blockade was only partially reversed upon washing.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
