Disease relevance of Eefsec

  • The lateral diffusion coefficient, D, of concanavalin A receptors and receptor complexes on the surface of lymphocytes and RDM4 lymphomas is enhanced by several orders of magnitude to D greater than 5 X 10(-9)cm2/sec by induction of swelling of the cells to bulbous form [1].
  • Approximately 90% of the scrapie agent was sedimented at an omega2t value of 3 X 10(10) rad2/sec in a fixed-angle rotor [2].
  • Pre-exposure of BALB/c mice to DA-3/sec cells afforded protection against challenge with DA-3/TM or DA-3/neo mammary tumors and the unrelated tumors K7, an osteosarcoma, and RENCA, a renal cell carcinoma [3].
  • When L-cysteine (1.25, or 5.0 mumol/animal) was injected intracerebroventricularly (i.c.v.) into mice, severe tonic seizures were observed for over 20 sec in 75% and 100% of the treated mice, respectively [4].
  • Real-time IVVM analysis of liver metastases after intraportal injection of cells via a mesenteric vein revealed that both LM-EGFP and E2-EGFP tumor cells arrest similarly in sinusoidal vessels near terminal portal venules within 0.4 sec, during which time no evidence of a "rolling"-like movement along endothelial cell surfaces was observed [5].

High impact information on Eefsec

  • Gly-PI molecules were sensitive to hydrolysis by a PI-specific phospholipase C and were rapidly (15 sec) degraded in response to insulin binding [11].
  • Label in inositol tetrakisphosphate (InsP4) and in Ins1,4,5P3 and Ins1,3,4P3 rose within 10 sec of stimulation and that in Ins1,4P2, another InsP2 and InsP1, more slowly [12].
  • However, complementation with HeLa cell extracts led to the formation of a SECIS-dependent complex containing mSelB and at least another factor [13].
  • In an attempt to isolate the eukaryotic homolog of SelB, a database search in this work identified a mouse expressed sequence tag containing the complete cDNA encoding a novel protein of 583 amino acids, which we called mSelB [13].
  • The diffusion coefficient of fluorescein (376 Da) was determined to be 3.3 +/- 0.6 x 10(-6) cm2/sec, which is 62% of its diffusion coefficient in water and is similar to diffusion coefficients measured for comparably sized molecules in cartilage [14].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Eefsec

  • Aerosolization of S 16118 (5 x 10(-3) M for 20 sec), 4 min before vagus nerve stimulation, induced a 60% decrease in the Evans blue extravasation, demonstrating the modulatory role of BK in neurogenic inflammation [15].
  • Frogs decapitated 1.5 sec after electroshock exhibited THE durations equal to those in intact frogs, and phenytoin and phenobarbital efficacies in shortening THE duration were unchanged by decapitation [16].
  • Continuous infusion of L-NAME negated the effect of hyperglycemia on islet blood flow: baseline TT was 20 +/- 1.8 pixel/0.03 sec and OCT was and 0.6 +/- 0.05 seconds; during hyperglycemia, TT was 20 +/- 1.1 pixel/0.03 sec and OCT was 0.6 +/- 0.33 seconds (n = 10; P < 0.05 versus glucose via unpaired t-test) [17].
  • The secondary phase from 30 sec following acetylcholine was selectively suppressed by anti-inflammatory agents and by atropine, while centrally acting analgesicw, other strong central nervous system drugs and ganglion blockers suppressed both phases of writhing to an equal extent [18].
  • Thiopental without N2O also increased survival time during complete anoxia (from 26 +/- 1 to 59 +/- 1 sec) [19].
 

Biological context of Eefsec

  • A careful examination of the kinetics of the phosphorylation reaction (from 30 sec to 10 min) revealed no activation of protein kinase C by extracellular ATP at any time [20].
  • In intact animals, resting heart rate (441 +/- 21 versus 534 +/- 17 bpm) and dP/dtmax (10,923 +/- 730 versus 15,308 +/- 471 mmHg/sec) were less in the Ile-164 mice as compared with wt beta 2AR mice [21].
  • Analysis of sleep disturbances, as defined by the occurrence of brief awakening (BA) episodes during NREM sleep, revealed that mutant mice exhibited a higher incidence of BAs of >16 sec compared with the wild-type, whereas no difference was seen in BAs of <16 sec between the two genotypes [22].
  • Formation of the complex is rapid (within 30 sec) and occurs at thrombin concentrations that stimulate platelet aggregation and secretion (50% of maximal complex formation at 0.03 unit of thrombin per ml) [23].
  • The maximal metabolic response in cells transfected with beta-adrenergic receptors peaks at approximately 12 min as compared with less than 30 sec in cells transfected with muscarinic receptors, perhaps reflecting activation of different second-messenger pathways [24].
 

Anatomical context of Eefsec

  • Incubation of macrophages with TNF alpha was found to transiently stimulate a MEKK that peaked in activity within 30 sec of exposure and progressively declined toward basal levels by 5 min [25].
  • The diffusion coefficient calculated from spin label collision frequency, averaged 3.3 X 10(-6) cm2/sec in several cell lines [26].
  • The calculated half-time for turnover of the spindle microtubules was 77 sec [27].
  • In fresh slices frozen within 20-30 sec of excision, calcium concentrations ranging from 0.8 to 18.6 mmol/kg of dry weight were measured in cisterns of smooth endoplasmic reticulum within Purkinje cell dendritic spines [28].
  • A diffusion coefficient of 1.6 X 10(-10) cm2/sec was determined for the labeled cytochrome c on inner mitochondrial membranes under conditions where succinate oxidase activity was demonstrated [29].
 

Associations of Eefsec with chemical compounds

  • A significant decline in stimulated ATP levels was observed within 30 sec, suggesting that the enhanced adenosine concentrations may result from the breakdown of ATP [30].
  • Indeed, the GABA transporter-evoked Na+ influxes are transient in nature, almost totally shutting off within approximately 30 sec of GABA application [31].
  • We show here that 1 microM isoproterenol evokes a rapid (less than 60 sec) transient increase in the activity of ornithine decarboxylase followed by an early (less than 2 min) sustained increase in putrescine, spermidine, and spermine concentrations in mouse kidney cortex slices in vitro [32].
  • Bradykinin caused the most rapid (maximum response, less than 20 sec) increase in intracellular Ca2+ [33].
  • By contrast, Vmax (fmol/sec per 50,000 cells) of the saturable oleate uptake component increased 3.5-fold in pFR400/pMAAT2 cells compared to pFR400, with a further 3.2-fold increase in the presence of Zn2+ [34].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Eefsec

  • We detected NOA-Au into perivascular spaces as early as 30 sec after the beginning of its perfusion [35].
  • Fluorescent derivatives of insulin and epidermal growth factor bound to 3T3 mouse fibroblasts are mobile on the cell surface, with similar diffusion coefficients, D approximately (3--5) x 10(-10) cm2/sec at 23 degrees C. Increasing the temperature to 37 degrees C results in rapid receptor immobilization [36].
  • The Stokes (molecular) radius was determined by gel filtration on Sephadex G-75 to be 22 A (range 21.5 to 22.5); the calculated diffusion coefficient (D20,w) was 9.7 X 10(-7) cm2/sec (range 9.5 X 10(-7) to 9.9 X 10(-7) [37].
  • Within 10 sec after treatment, LPS caused an average increase of about fourfold to fivefold in Ins(1,4,5)P3, which declined over 5 min [38].
  • In mice, room temperature swimming for as short a period as 15 sec has been found to induce a non-opioid analgesia with a time course of 10-12 min [39].
