Brain-Reactive Antibodies: Molecular Specificity and Relationship to Biological Aging (open access)

Brain-Reactive Antibodies: Molecular Specificity and Relationship to Biological Aging

Brain-reactive antibodies (BRA) increase in frequency with age in several mammalian species and may be involved in the pathogenesis of age-related dementia. In this experiment, the molecular specificity of BRA in mouse sera was determined using an immunoblot assay, and the relationship of BRA to longevity was studied by comparing the rate of formation of specific BRAs in diet restricted C57BL/6NNia, B6D2F1/NNia, and DBA/2NNia, genotypes which differ markedly in life-span.

Studies of Pigment-Lipid-Protein Complexes Isolated from the Cell Membrane of Xanthomonas Juglandis (Campestris) (open access)

Studies of Pigment-Lipid-Protein Complexes Isolated from the Cell Membrane of Xanthomonas Juglandis (Campestris)

Separation of the pigment-lipid esters of Xanthomonas juglandis (campestris) in a silica gel G:celite 545 column yielded 4 bands. Two of these bands, ester #1 and #2, make up over 95% of the mixture. Analysis of the four pigments indicate that three are phospholipids and that the phosphate accounts for about 3-4% of the weight of each of the two major esters.
