[The effect of serotonin on the hematopoietic stem cells of the bone marrow].

Haemopoietic stem cells content and proliferative activity were studied in the bone marrow of female F1 (CBA x C57Bl6) mice after single (50 mg/kg) and chronic (0.5 mg/kg daily for 7 days) serotonin (S) injections. It is shown that 9-day and 12-day COEs contents in the bone marrow of experimental mice has been increasing for 24 h after single S injection. After chronic S injections twofold increase of 12-day COEs is observed without any increasing of 9-day COEs. Total myelokaryocyte number is increased too. The study of proliferative status by in vitro incubation of bone marrow cells with ARA-C has shown that the numbers of 9-day and 12-day COEs in S-phase have increased both after single and chronic S injections. Possible mechanisms of stimulating effect of S on bone marrow stem cells are discussed.

[Assessment of the erythropoietin-producing function of the kidney and liver under controlled perfusion].

The balance of erythropoietin production by the dog kidney and liver was studied during controlled normoxic perfusion. The hormone production was stimulated by acute posthemorrhagic anemia (bloodletting of 25% total blood volume) combined with subcutaneous injection of cobaltous chloride (250 microM/kg body weight). The increase in erythropoietin level was revealed in posthypoxic animal perfusate after 6 hours of perfusion. The amount of hepatic erythropoietin was shown to be 2.5 times higher than that excreted by kidneys.

[Effect of serotonin on proliferating and resting cells in culture].

The influence of exogenous serotonin on cell division of L929 and L-41 cell strains has been investigated under various conditions of cell growth in culture (the incubation either in 10% serum medium without changing the medium, or in the medium with 0.5% serum). The data obtained show that serotonin in physiological concentration (10(-7) M) stimulates proliferation of resting cells. In proliferating cells, compared to resting ones, the sensitivity to exogenous amine appeared statistically non-significant. Exogenous serotonin is suggested to be a proliferating stimulus for resting cells.

[Effect of hypoxemia on the erythropoietic activity of organs during perfusion].

Hypoxemia (45-minute) influence in vivo on erythropoietic activity of the kidney, liver, spleen, and sternum was studied by normoxemic perfusion of the isolated organs. The erythropoietic activity proved to increase after 6-hour perfusion of the liver; this confirmed the participation of this organ in the extrarenal secretion of the erythropoietic factor.

[Dynamics of the amino acid composition of the medium during cultivation of isolated liver and kidney by the controlled perfusion method].

The dynamics of the medium amino acid composition was studied during a 6-hour perfusion of dog kidney and liver by a mixture of autogenic plasma and medium 199 (a ratio of 2 : 3). In comparison to the initial level the amount of histidine during 6-hour cultivation of the kidney was found to increase 2.2 times, that of glutamic acid--1.7 times, and of alanine and lysine--1.6 times. At the same time the amount of arginine, serine and asparagic acid became 3.3 times and of glutamine and threonine--2.5 times lower. With the liver perfusion the level of glutaminic acid became 2.9 times, of alanine--2.3 times, of cystine--2 times and of glycine--1.5 times higher. With the liver perfusion the level of arginine decreased so rapidly that none was found in the medium after a 2-hour perfusion. The described method of amino acid analysis during the cultivation of the organs could serve as means for elaborating and correcting the culture media.

[Dynamics of the amino acid composition of the medium during cultivation of isolated organs by the directed perfusion method].

The dynamics of the amino acid composition of the medium under conditions of adequate perfusion of the isolated organs of a dog (sternum, kidney and liver) was studied. It was found that after a 6-hour perfusion of the complex of organs the amount in the perfusion medium of such amino acids as histidine, lysine, alanine, considerably increased, whereas the amount of arginine, serine, aspartic acid, threonine with glutamine, isoleucine, proline, leucine and valine decreased as compared with their initial concentration. The dynamics of the amino acid medium composition during a 4-hour perfusion was studied in experiments with the isolated sternum. The concentration of alanine, lysine and histidine increased in the medium. At the same time there was seen a decrease in the concentration of serine, aspartic acid, isoleucine, tyrosine and phenyl-alanine.
