    Notes: Abstract Objective: The present study compares the effects of yohimbine, an alpha2 adrenoceptor antagonist, and anetholtrithione, a reference drug in the treatment of dry mouth, in patients treated with psychotropic drugs (tricyclic antidepressants or neuroleptics) and suffering from xerostomia. Methods: Ten patients were included in a randomized, double-blind, cross-over study, and receiving after yohimbine (3 × 6 mg per day) or anetholtrithione (3 × 25 mg per day) orally for 5 days. Salivary secretion was estimated under resting conditions, before any drug, and then on day 6, 1 h after the ingestion of yohimbine or anetholtrithione. Results: Compared with basal secretion, the increase in salivary flow was significantly more marked after yohimbine than after anetholtrithione. Conclusion: This study demonstrates the sialogenic effect of yohimbine in drug-induced dry mouth.

    Notes: Abstract Molecular films from polymeric materials play an important role in basic research as well as in technology. We have synthesized the double chain diacetylenic ammonium lipid N-bis-(10, 12-pentacosadiinoyl)-oxy-ethyl)-N-methyl-amine (ONCO). We have characterized monomolecular films at the air/water interface by means of microfluorescence filmbalance techniques and by atomic force microscopy (AFM). ONCO forms stable monomolecular films that exhibit a fluid-solid phase transition with a transition enthalpy of 90 kJ/mol at 10 °C and neutral pH. The coexistence pressure was found to decrease with decreasing protonation, which is in contrast to the commonly found Coulomb mechanism. A change in the chain packing due to a different nitrogen bond angle is discussed as a possible mechanism. This model is cor-roborated by the finding that crystals at high and at low pH differ in their polymerization properties as measured by microfluorescence.
