Nuclear membrane ¯uidity is measured in rat liver by use of the ¯uorescence anisotropy of two probes: diphenylhexatriene and its cationic derivative trimethylammonium-diphenylhexatriene. It has been shown that, in 2-monthold rat liver cells, the bilayer surface is less ¯uid than the hydrophobic core

Incorporation of ethanol (1.0 or 1.25 M) into exponential-phase cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae N C Y C 366 growing anaerobically in a medium supplemented with ergosterol and an unsaturated fatty acid caused a retardation in growth rate, which was greater when the medium contained oleic rather
In vitro cultured mouse myeloma (Sp-2/0-Ag14) cells and phosphatidylcholine liposomes were used to study the membrane effects of photosensitization with an He-Ne laser activated haematoporphyrin (HP). Lipophilic HP molecules, intercalated between the membrane lipid molecules, caused morphological ch
Partially (6-fold) purified plasma membrane ATPase from an ethanol-sensitive yeast, Kloeckera apiculata, had an optimum pH of 6.0, an optimum temperature of 35°C, a K m of 3.6 mM ATP and a V max of 11 μmol Pi/min.mg protein. SDS-PAGE of the semi-purified plasma membrane showed a major band of 106 kD
## Abstract In this study, __S__‐allyl cysteine sulfoxide (SACS) was used to evaluate its preventive effect in isoproterenol (ISO)‐induced myocardial ischemia in male Wistar rats. Rats were pretreated with SACS (40 and 80 mg kg^−1^) orally for 5 weeks. After the treatment period, ISO (150 mg kg^−1^
