Using single unit recording in nucleus paragigantocellularis neurons located in the rostral ventrolateral medulla, and measuring the precipitated withdrawal syndrome, we investigated whether chronic morphine administration would produce adaptive changes in the adenosine system. Caffeine (50 mg/kg, i.p.) induced withdrawal signs (head shakes, tooth chattering, ejaculation, chewing, and irritability) in morphine-dependent rats 10-18 min after the injection. Only the tooth chattering and diarrhea were expressed following a direct paragigantocellularis injection of caffeine (200 microM, 0.5 microl). The spontaneous activity of paragigantocellularis neurons was significantly decreased by microinjection of both adenosine (10 nM) and an adenosine A1 receptor-selective agonist, cyclohexyladenosine (200 microM), into the paragigantocellularis nucleus of both control and morphine-dependent rats, but the decrease in firing rate of paragigantocellularis neurons of morphine-dependent rats was greater than that of control ones. There was also a significant enhancement of spontaneous activity of paragigantocellularis neurons 8-15 min after caffeine administration (50 mg/kg, i.p.) and 10-18 min after the injection of an adenosine A1 receptor-selective antagonist 8-phenyltheophylline (10 mg/kg, i.p.) in both control and morphine-dependent rats. However, the effect of the antagonists was greater in morphine-dependent rats than in control ones. These data suggest that there is an increase in the sensitivity of nucleus paragigantocellularis neurons to adenosine receptor ligands in morphine-dependent rats that may be associated with the ability of caffeine to produce withdrawal signs.

The effects of hydrogen peroxide were studied on isolated rabbit mesenteric small artery; rabbit superior mesenteric artery and mouse aorta were also studied as reference tissues. For mesenteric small artery, hydrogen peroxide (1 to 100 microM) relaxed a norepinephrine-stimulated artery in a concentration-dependent manner. The relaxation was not significantly affected by removal of the endothelium and was less pronounced in arteries contracted with high-KCl solution plus norepinephrine than in those contracted with norepinephrine alone. The relaxation response to hydrogen peroxide was increased by isobutylmethylxanthine and zaprinast, inhibited by diclofenac, methylene blue and dithiothreitol and unaffected by atropine, tetraethylammonium, superoxide dismutase, deferoxamine, dimethyl sulfoxide or the Rp stereoisomer of adenosine cyclic monophosphothioate. Hydrogen peroxide shifted concentration-contractile response curves for norepinephrine to the right and downwards. Norepinephrine and caffeine elicited a transient, phasic contraction of the mesenteric small artery exposed for 0.5, 1 and 2 min to a Ca2+-free solution. Hydrogen peroxide inhibited the norepinephrine-induced contraction, and to a lesser extent the caffeine-induced contraction, and verapamil did not alter the contraction to norepinephrine. These pharmacological properties of hydrogen peroxide were similar to those of 8-bromo cGMP; 8-bromo cGMP inhibited more potently the norepinephrine-induced than the KCl-induced contraction and the contraction elicited by norepinephrine in Ca2+-free solution. The present results suggest that hydrogen peroxide induces endothelium-independent relaxation of the rabbit mesenteric small artery precontracted with norepinephrine. The effects of hydrogen peroxide may be at least in part mediated by cGMP and cyclooxygenase products in the vascular smooth muscles now used.

Functional analysis of the Neurospora crassa PZL-1 protein phosphatase by expression in budding and fission yeast.

The gene pzl-1 from the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa encodes a putative Ser/Thr protein phosphatase that is reminiscent of the Ppz1/Ppz2 and Pzh1 phosphatases from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe, respectively. The entire PZL-1 protein, as well as its carboxyl-terminal domain, have been expressed in Escherichia coli as active protein phosphatases. To characterize its cellular role, PZL-1 was also expressed in Sz. pombe and in S. cerevisiae. Expression of PZL-1 in S. cerevisiae from the PPZ1 promoter was able to rescue the altered sensitivity to caffeine and lithium ions of a ppz1 strain. Furthermore, high copy number expression of PZL-1 alleviated the lytic phenotype of a S. cerevisiae slt2/mpk1 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase mutant, similarly to that described for PPZ1, and mimicked the effects of high levels of Ppz1 on cell growth. Expression of PZL-1 in fission yeast from a weak version of the nmt1 promoter fully rescued the growth defect of a pzh1Delta strain in high potassium, but only partially complemented the sodium-hypertolerant phenotype. Strong overexpression of the N. crassa phosphatase in Sz. pombe affected cell growth and morphology. Therefore, PZL-1 appears to fulfil every known function carried out by its S. cerevisiae counterpart, despite the marked divergence in sequence within their NH(2)-terminal moieties. 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Beautiful, dense hair is a dream for many people.
Hair growth is a sophisticated biological process, which has not yet been understood.
A multitude of therapeutic measures, including drugs, surgery, and suppelements have been developed.
However, due to the diversity of the problems underlying hair loss, there is no single solution that
can address all hair loss cases. Another problem is that most of chemical drugs and hair transplantation
surgeries are not free from varying degrees of undesirable side effects on health.
Hair Million is an alternative solution to cope with hair loss problems.
Anecdotally, it shows prositive results and improvement especially for age-related hair thinning and hair loss
for a large group of people who take it as suggested. Although personal experiences and anecdotal evidences
indicate that it works, we still do not understand the mechanisms of action as to how Hair Million works to
help stop hair loss, and promote hair growth. There has been no clinical trials nor placebo controlled statistical
analysis on the efficacy of Hair Million on hair loss and hair growth. R & D costs dearly, and no one would
afford to research complex herbal ingredients, which are often not patentable at all because they are
made by mother nature.
DHEA is a natural hormone, and it is produced in our body by the adrenal glands.
DHEA has been suggested to provide numerous potential benefits. DHEA (or dehydroepiandrosterone) is converted into androgens (male hormones)
or estrogens (female hormones) in the cells.
