    Notes: . Cryptosporidium parvum oocyst viability can be determined by vital dyes, in vitro excystation, and cell culture; however, neonatal mouse infectivity assays are the reference method. Unfortunately, there have been few efforts to standardize methods for infectivity assays thus casting a veil of uncertainty over the significance and comparability of results. In order to address this issue, two laboratories proficient in measuring oocyst infectivity conducted independent dose titration studies with neonatal CD-I mice using standardized protocols and a well-characterized isolate of Cryptosporidium parvum. The resulting independent logistic dose-response models derived by regression analysis were compared with each other and with a published model. The comparisons showed these dose-response functions to be reproducible under standardized conditions. It is important to standardize mouse strain, age of mice at inoculation and necropsy, oocyst isolate, and age of oocysts. However, other factors, including methods used to detect infectivity and to count oocyst doses, appear less critical. Adopting a standardized assay for oocyst infectivity will provide both a basis for comparing data from various oocyst disinfection studies and a suitable platform for evaluating new or existing in vitro viability surrogates such as excystation, vital dyes or cell culture.

    Notes: Summary (1) The mean cumulative urinary digoxin excretion over 8 days was compared in 8 healthy volunteers after single doses of digoxin administered as 3 Lanoxin tablets of 0.25 mg, 3 digoxin tablets of 0.2 mg, 12 Lanoxicaps without sorbitol of 0.05 mg, 6 Lanoxicaps without sorbitol of 0.1 mg digoxin, 3 Lanoxicaps without sorbitol of 0.2 mg and 3 Lanoxicaps with sorbitol of 0.2 mg. (2) There was no significant difference between the 8 day cumulative urinary excretion for any of the Lanoxicaps treatments. (3) Cumulative urinary excretion after 3 digoxin tablets of 0.2 mg was significantly (P〈0.05) lower than after all other treatments. (4) Cumulative urinary excretion after 3 Lanoxin tablets of 0.25 mg was not significantly different from that after any of the Lanoxicaps treatments except 0.1 mg Lanoxicaps without sorbitol, it was significantly (P〈0.05) lower after the latter. (5) Mean urinary excretion of digoxin was 60% of ingested dose for all Lanoxicaps treatments and was significantly (P〈0.05) higher than the mean value of 50% for both tablet treatments. (6) Enhanced absorption of digoxin from Lanoxicaps was confirmed and shown to be unrelated to the sorbitol content of the capsule shell.

    Notes: Summary The effects of oxprenolol and propranolol on the venoconstrictor response to noradrenaline were studied in healthy volunteers by measuring superficial dorsal hand vein diameter at a standard congesting pressure. In 8 subjects dose response curves to noradrenaline (20–1280 ng/ml) were obtained with noradrenaline alone, with noradrenaline plus propranolol 10 µg/ml, with noradrenaline plus propranolol 10 µg/ml plus oxprenolol 3 µg/ml and with noradrenaline plus propranolol 13 µg/ml according to a double blind balanced randomised design. Propranolol 10 µg/ml significantly (P〈0.05) potentiated the vasoconstrictor response to noradrenaline and the addition of oxprenolol significantly (P〈0.05) reversed the potentiation giving a response similar to that seen with noradrenaline alone. The higher concentration of propranolol did not produce further potentiation, the response being similar to that obtained with the lower concentration of propranolol. It is suggested that the effect of oxprenolol may be attributable to alpha blocking properties, to partial beta agonism or to its membrane stabilising properties.

    Notes: Summary The effect of treatment for eight weeks with isradipine 1.25 mg twice daily for 4 weeks and thereafter 2.5 mg twice daily for 4 weeks on ex vivo platelet function was investigated in 10 male hypertensive patients, aged 51 (6.1) y. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure, platelet aggregation in response to ADP, serum thromboxane B2 and β-thromboglobulin levels were significantly decreased at rest before exercise ergometry, during exercise and at rest after exercise. The platelet count, platelet sensitivity and the plasma levels of 6-oxo-prostaglandin F1α were not affected by isradipine. It is concluded that a compound that lowers blood pressure and inhibits platelet activation may be of clinical benefit in the routine treatment of hypertension.

    Notes: Abstract Objective: An increased apo B-containing lipoprotein influx and cholesterol ester accumulation in arteries are well-known events in human atherogenesis. In vitro and experimental animal studies have provided evidence of a beneficial effect of PGE1 on both vascular apo B-containing lipoprotein accumulation and cholesterol ester content. Methods: We examined the effect of PGE1 (administered via an intravenous portable infusion pump at a rate of 5 ng PGE1 kg−1 ·  min−1 for 5 days a week, 6 h daily, over a total of 5 weeks) in ten patients (eight males, two females) on 123I-apo B-containing lipoprotein accumulation into the large arteries in vivo. Apo B-containing lipoprotein isolation was carried out by immunoaffinity chromatography and radiolabeling with the iodine monochloride method. 123I-apo B-containing lipoprotein accumulation was imaged and quantified by means of special computer software before and after 5 weeks of PGE1 therapy Results: PGE1 led to a significant decrease in maximal arterial apo B-containing lipoprotein retention. The mean decrease in the carotid and femoral arteries in type I lesions amounted to between 16.9% and 30.4%, and in type II lesions between 22.4% and 30.7%, 20 h after injection of radiolabeled apo B-containing lipoprotein. The type of arterial apo B-containing lipoprotein kinetic curves, however, remained unchanged. Conclusion: These findings indicate that PGE1 decreases the apo B-containing lipoprotein influx in the large arteries and the vascular cholesterol content, suggesting that PGE1 may lead to regression of lipid-rich lesions in human in vivo.

    Notes: Summary The following study of cyclosporine pharmacokinetics was performed to investigate the effects of withdrawal of low-dose maintenance prednisolone (0.3–0.6 mg/kg body weight) from the routine immunosuppressive regimen given to 10 liver transplant recipients with stable liver function tests. After oral administration of cyclosporine (6.4–10.3 mg/kg) whole blood concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA) with both a specific monoclonal antibody detecting parent drug and a non-specific antibody additionally detecting a cross-section of metabolites. Withdrawal of prednisolone produced no significant change in the mean time and concentration of maximum blood cyclosporine (3.3 h and 1160 μg/l, respectively), the initial and terminal elimination half-life (3.5 h and 18.4 h, respectively) and the area under the blood concentration versus time curve (AUC) measured with either the specific or non-specific monoclonal antibody. Measurements with these two antibodies indicated that the terminal elimination of cyclosporine metabolites was more rapid than for the parent drug (half-life: 14.5 vs 18.4, respectively).
