Heat stress induced enhancement of heat shock protein gene activity in the honey bee (Apis mellifera).

We employed in vitro translation of mRNA and product separation using SDS-PAGE to examine the heat-shock response of the worker honey bee. Increases in the levels of 6 translatable RNA populations were observed following heat stress. The greatest response was observed among bees aged 9 days. Slight levels of induction of 70 and 82 kDa heat shock proteins were evident among bees taken directly from the colony.

Inhibition of rat passive cutaneous anaphylaxis by 3-(tetrazol-5-yl)quinolines.

Quinoline-3-carboxylic acid (3) was found to have weak oral activity in the rat passive cutaneous (PCA) assay. In an effort to increase activity, the synthesis of structurally related compounds was initiated. This led to substituted 3-(tetrazol-5-yl)quinolines, some of which are equal in potency, when given orally, to doxantrazole. Further work resulted in the synthesis of 4-oxoquinolines, one of which, 8-chloro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-(tetrazol-5-yl)quinoline (132), is 33-fold more active than disodium cromoglycate (ip) and 32-fold more active than doxantrazole (po).

Simulated decision-making experience via case analysis.

An effective strategy for developing decision-making skills is presented, using a problem-solving systems model. Through retrospective examination of an actual problem, the systematic, sequential aspects of decision making are illustrated.

Antiallergic activity of tetracyclic derivatives of quinoline-2-carboxylic acid. 2. Some benzothienoquinolinecarboxylic acids.

Some benzothienoquinolinecarboxylic acids were synthesized and tested in the rat passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) assay as potential antiallergic agents. Many of the compounds showed activity comparable to that shown by disodium cromoglycate (DSFG); two of them, 1,4-dihydro-4,6,6-trioxo-5-chloro[1]benzothieno[2,3-g]quinoline-2-carboxylic acid and 1,4-dihydro-1,7-dioxo[1]benzothieno[3,2-f]quinoline-3-carboxylic acid, showed potency approximately eightfold greater than that of DSCG in the PCA assay.

Antiallergic activity of tetracyclic derivatives of quinoline-2-carboxylic acids. 1.

Substitution of 1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-2-carboxylic acid by acetyl, benzoyl, and phenylsulfonyl substituents was found to enhance activity in the rat passive cutaneous anaphylaxis assay. A further increase in activity, to equipotency with DSCG, was achieved by incorporation of the 8-benzoyl moiety into a tetracyclic structure to give 1,4-dihydro-4,11(1H,11H)-dioxoindeno[1,2-h]quinoline-2-carboxylic acid (20). In contrast, the reverse isomer 19 was found to have little activity.
