ABSTRACT 1. The metabolism of suspensions of circulating leucocytes has been studied after intramuscular injection of a dose of 50 mg/kg of a corticosteroid (cortisone acetate). The suspensions were incubated under aerobic conditions in the presence of a glucose concentration of 5.6 mm. Glucose consumption, lactate production, and variations in intracellular glycogen concentration were measured. After the administration of the corticosteroid, the anabolic processes of granulocyte metabolism were reversibly stimulated. Glucose consumption and lactate production increased 12 hours after the injection, but tended to normalize after 24 hours. The glycogen content of the granulocytes was enhanced, and glycogen synthesis during the course of the incubation was greatly stimulated. The action of the administered corticosteroid is more prolonged in females than in males. The injection of the corticosteroid caused metabolic modifications which resemble in their modulations and in their chronological development those found in circulating granulocytes of guinea-pigs suffering from sterile peritonitis. These results suggest, therefore, that, in the case of acute inflammation, the glucocorticosteroids may play an important role in the regulation of the metabolism of the blood leucocytes.

Abstract. In order to examine regulation of pituitary intermediate lobe secretion, plasma immunoreactive (i)ACTH, cortisol, and α-MSH responses to iv bolus injections of CRF, quipazine maleate (serotonin agonist), isoproterenol (β-adrenergic agonist) or haloperidol (dopamine antagonist) were determined in conscious, unrestrained dogs. Endocrine responses to these test substances were also determined in dogs pre-treated with dexamethasone. Administration of one or more doses of each test substance resulted in significant elevations in plasma iACTH and cortisol concentrations. Only haloperidol injection caused significant increases in plasma iα-MSH. Following dexamethasone pre-treatment, plasma iACTH and cortisol increases in response to all test substances were considerably reduced or abolished. Dexamethasone did not alter baseline or haloperidol-stimulated plasma ia-MSH concentrations. However, infusion of bromocriptine mesylate (dopamine agonist) in combination with dexamethasone pre-treatment reduced the plasma iα-MSH response to haloperidol. We conclude that a dopaminergic pathway is important in the in vivo regulation of pituitary intermediate lobe activity in dogs.

ABSTRACT A study was made of the influence of pharmacological amounts of synthetic oxytocin (»Syntocinon«) on the lactating mammary gland of the rabbit. The drug was given by intravenous infusion, by intramuscular injection and by intranasal administration. Two different types of reaction were noted: a tonic reaction, i. e. a lasting increase in pressure in the mammary gland without significant fluctuations, or a rhythmic reaction, i. e. a series of increases in pressure at more or less regular intervals. In order to elicit reactions approximately identical in intensity and character with those produced by intravenous infusion, it was necessary to give approximately 1.5 to 8.0 times as much by intramuscular injection and approximately 10 to 100 times as much by intranasal administration. Intravenous administration of adrenaline transiently suppressed a long-lasting reaction to oxytocin.

The present study aimed to investigate the prophylactic effect of Cymbopogon proximus and Alhagi maurorum on Sulfadimidine induced urolithiasis in rabbits . Thirty New Zealand male rabbits were allocated into six equal groups (each of five): Group (1) was used as a negative control. Group(2) were administered sulfadimidine (200mg/kg) by intramuscular injection.Groups(3) and (4) were administered sulfadimidine(200mg/kg) by intramuscular injection and 330mg/kg of Cymbopogon proximus alcoholic and aqueous extracts respectively orally.Groups(5) and (6) were administered sulfadimidine(200mg/kg) by intramuscular injection and 400mg/kg of Alhagi maurorum alcoholic and aqueous extracts respectively orally. The period of experiment was 10 days. Blood and urine samples were collected from rabbits on the 10th day. The results recorded a significant decrease in serum creatinine, urea, uric acid and crystalluria in Cymbopogon proximus and Alhagi maurorum groups compared to sulfadimidine treated group.We conclude that Cymbopogon proximus and Alhagi maurorum have a nephroprotective and antiurolithiatic effects against sulfadimidine induced crystalluria.
