A method to estimate binding constants at variable protein concentrations.

The association constants of the binding of chlorpromazine and imipramine to serum albumin at low saturation of the protein were determined by a new experimental approach with the protein concentration rather than the ligand concentration being varied. This approach is suitable for estimating binding constants in systems with one class of binding sites. In addition, the method is proposed to complement conventional binding studies of systems with two classes of binding constant with higher accuracy.

The effect of denervation on bony overgrowth after below knee amputation in rats.

Bony overgrowth of amputated limbs of children is an infrequent but difficult problem. This article presents the hypothesis that the bony overgrowth is under nerve control and may represent an abortive form of partial limb regeneration. Tested in young rats, denervation produces a significant reduction in the mass and length of the bony overgrowth and a reduced rate of periosteal cell mitosis.
