Rapamycin (5) was isolated in 1975 from the soil bacteria Streptomyces hygroscopicus and its structure was determined from spectroscopic techniques and an x-ray crystallographic analysis. Although it was initially found to exhibit antibiotic activity, it was subsequently shown to possess potent immunosuppressive activity as well.
Three approaches to the synthesis...
Two experiments were conducted to determine whether in
ewes uterine concentrations of estrogen and progesterone
receptors are affected by the presence of a conceptus or by
the hormonal milieu associated with extremes in photoperiod
to which ewes are exposed.
In Exp.1, nine mature ewes were unilaterally
ovariectomized by removing an...
Upper Klamath Lake in southern Oregon has two species of lacustrine suckers,
Lost River sucker Deltistes luxatus and shortnose sucker Chasmistes brevirostris that
were historically abundant. Results of surveys performed in the mid-1980's indicated that populations of both species were declining and ageing with apparent recruitment failure in most years...
Two experiments were conducted to examine the effect of
a cyclopropenoid fatty acid on luteal cell function. In Exp.
1, 12 mature ewes were mated to a fertile ram, assigned to two
groups (n = 6/group) and laparotomized on day 18 of gestation.
Ewes with corpora lutea (CL) in both...
