Intervesicular exchange of lipids with weak acid and weak base characteristics: influence of transmembrane pH gradients.
Transmembrane pH gradients have previously been shown to induce an asymmetric transmembrane distribution of simple lipids that exhibit weak acid or basic characteristics (Hope, M.J. and Cullis, P.R. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 4360-4366). In the present study we have examined the influence of proton gradients on the inter-vesicular exchange of stearylamine and oleic acid. We show that vesicles c...
متن کاملpassivity in waiting for godot and endgame: a psychoanalytic reading
this study intends to investigate samuel beckett’s waiting for godot and endgame under the lacanian psychoanalysis. it begins by explaining the most important concepts of lacanian psychoanalysis. the beckettian characters are studied regarding their state of unconscious, and not the state of consciousness as is common in most beckett studies. according to lacan, language plays the sole role in ...
z-weak ideals and prime weak ideals
In this paper, we study a generalization of z-ideals in the ring C(X) of continuous real valued functions on a completely regular Hausdorff space X. The notion of a weak ideal and naturally a weak z-ideal and a prime weak ideal are introduced and it turns out that they behave such as z-ideals in C(X).
متن کاملTumor pH controls the in vivo efficacy of weak acid and base chemotherapeutics.
The extracellular pH of tumor tissue is significantly lower than the extracellular pH of normal tissue, whereas the intracellular pH of both tissues is similar. In principle, extracellular acidity may be expected to enhance the intracellular uptake and cytotoxicity of weak acid chemotherapeutics that are membrane permeable in their uncharged state and inhibit the efficacy of weak bases. However...
متن کاملRegulation of intracellular pH in sea urchin eggs by medium containing both weak acid and base.
To establish a method of pHi regulation and to understand the pH regulation mechanism in the cell, we investigated the pHi response of unfertilized or fertilized eggs of sea urchin, applying sea water containing both weak permeant acid, acetic acid and/or base, ammonia, to eggs. Pyranine was employed as a pH indicator to measure intracellular pH (pHi) by microfluorometry. The unfertilized/ferti...
