Inhibition and stimulation of prolactin release. Delayed response in duodenal ulcer patients.

Prolactin inhibitory tests (bromocriptine in a single dose 2.5 mg orally) as well as stimulatory tests (metoclopramide in a single dose of 10 mg intravenously) were performed in 33 patients with endoscopically proven duodenal ulcer and in 32 healthy volunteers. Delayed response in inhibition of prolactin release as well as in stimulation of prolactin release was observed in duodenal ulcer patients compared to healthy volunteers (P < 0.01). The results implicate the role of the dopamine-prolactin axis in the pathogenesis of duodenal ulcer disease.

Base stacking in the dinucleoside phosphate rapa.

The pH-induced unstacking of rRpA has been investigated by batch calorimetry and uv spectroscopy. Equilibrium uv melting curves confirmed that the adenine bases in rApA are stacked at pH7 but unstacked at pH 1.5. The enthalpy change accompanying this pH-induced unstacking is +2.65 kcal (mole of A-A stack)-1 as measured by batch calorimetry. This represents the first direct determination of this important parameter for a dinucleoside phosphate. It is noted that the calorimetrically determined value reported here is considerably lower than published van't Hoff enthalpies but is consistent with values that can be derived from calorimetric data on polymers.
