1998 journal article

Endosulfan elevates testosterone biotransformation and clearance in CD-1 mice

TOXICOLOGY AND APPLIED PHARMACOLOGY, 148(1), 158–168.

By: V. Wilson n & G. LeBlanc n 

MeSH headings : Animals; Biotransformation; Body Weight / drug effects; Cytosol / drug effects; Cytosol / metabolism; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Endosulfan / toxicity; Estradiol / blood; Female; Hydrocarbons, Chlorinated; Insecticides / toxicity; Kidney / drug effects; Kidney / metabolism; Liver / drug effects; Liver / metabolism; Male; Mice; Microsomes, Liver / drug effects; Microsomes, Liver / metabolism; Organ Size / drug effects; Testosterone / pharmacokinetics
TL;DR: Results indicate that increases in testosterone biotransformation from endosulfan exposure can result in increases in the elimination of the steroid, however, homeostatic processes apparently compensate for the effect and minimize any consequences on serum hormone levels.

1998 journal article

Differential effects of fat and sucrose on body composition in A/J and C57BL/6 mice

METABOLISM-CLINICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL, 47(11), 1354–1359.

By: B. Black n, J. Croom n, E. Eisen n, A. Petro n, C. Edwards  n & R. Surwit n

MeSH headings : Animals; Body Composition; Dietary Fats / administration & dosage; Dietary Sucrose / administration & dosage; Intestines / enzymology; Male; Mice; Mice, Inbred C57BL; Species Specificity; Sucrase / metabolism; Weight Gain; alpha-Glucosidases / metabolism
TL;DR: The B6 mouse exhibits disproportionate weight gain and altered body composition on a high-fat diet, which coupled with the reduced body weight and increased body protein on a low-fat, high-sucrose diet suggests that factors-relative to fat metabolism rather than sucrose metabolism are responsible for obesity.

1998 journal article

Delimiting the genus Staphylococcus through description of Macrococcus caseolyticus gen. nov., comb. nov. and Macrococcus equipercicus sp. nov., Macrococcus bovicus sp. nov. and Macrococcus carouselicus sp. nov.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SYSTEMATIC BACTERIOLOGY, 48, 859–877.

By: W. Kloos n, D. Ballard n, C. George n, J. Webster*, R. Hubner*, W. Ludwig *, K. Schleifer*, F. Fiedler*, K. Schubert*

author keywords: Macrococcus gen. nov.; Macrococcus caseolyticus gen. nov., comb. nov.; Macrococcus equipercicus sp. nov.; Macrococcus bovicus sp. nov.; Macrococcus carouselicus sp. nov.
MeSH headings : Animals; Base Composition; Base Sequence; Cell Wall / chemistry; DNA, Ribosomal / chemistry; Horses; Micrococcaceae / classification; Molecular Sequence Data; Nucleic Acid Hybridization; Phenotype; Phylogeny; Plasmids; RNA, Ribosomal, 16S / genetics; Staphylococcus / classification
TL;DR: Four species of the newly proposed genus Macrococcus are described on the basis of a phylogenetic analysis comparing 16S rRNA sequences, DNA-DNA liquid hybridization, DNA base composition, normalized ribotype patterns, macrorestriction pattern analysis and estimation of genome size using PFGE, cell wall composition, phenotypic characteristics and plasmid profiles.

1998 journal article

Two pimarane diterpenoids from Ephemerantha lonchophylla and their evaluation as modulators of the multidrug resistance phenotype

JOURNAL OF NATURAL PRODUCTS, 61(1), 112–115.

By: G. Ma*, T. Wang, L. Yin, Y. Pan, Y. Guo*, G. LeBlanc n , M. Reinecke, W. Watson, M. Krawiec

MeSH headings : ATP Binding Cassette Transporter, Subfamily B, Member 1 / biosynthesis; Animals; Antineoplastic Agents, Phytogenic / isolation & purification; Antineoplastic Agents, Phytogenic / pharmacology; Doxorubicin / pharmacology; Genes, MDR / drug effects; Humans; Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy; Mice; Phenanthrenes / isolation & purification; Phenanthrenes / pharmacology; Phenotype; Plant Stems / chemistry; Structure-Activity Relationship; Tumor Cells, Cultured; X-Ray Diffraction
TL;DR: Two new pimarane diterpenoids, lonchophylloids A and B, were isolated from the stems of Ephemerantha lon chophylla and were capable of sensitizing cells that expressed the multidrug resistance phenotype to the toxicity of the anticancer drug doxorubicin. (via Semantic Scholar)

1998 journal article

Heat resistance of Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris spores as affected by various pH values and organic acids

JOURNAL OF FOOD PROTECTION, 61(1), 41–46.

By: A. Pontius n, J. Rushing n & P. Foegeding n

MeSH headings : Bacillaceae / isolation & purification; Bacillaceae / physiology; Beverages / microbiology; Carboxylic Acids / pharmacology; Food Contamination / prevention & control; Food Microbiology; Fruit / microbiology; Hot Temperature; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Spores, Bacterial / growth & development
TL;DR: The models generated from this research can be used to determine adequate thermal processes, accounting for the acid type, pH, and temperature, to destroy A. acidoterrestris spores in beverages, since this organism is able to survive the typical hot-fill and hold process currently used to process fruit juice.

1998 journal article

Spawning migration of telemetered striped bass in the Roanoke River, North Carolina

TRANSACTIONS OF THE AMERICAN FISHERIES SOCIETY, 127(2), 286–297.

By: J. Carmichael n, S. Haeseker n & J. Hightower n

TL;DR: This work used ultrasonic telemetry to estimate the timing and duration of the upriver spawning migration for the Roanoke River, North Carolina, population and to evaluate whether a short-term fluctuation in temperature or flow would alter the distribution of telemetered fish on the spawning grounds.
