serum calcium accompanying a fall in red blood cell count following treatment with phenylhydrazine. We were stimulated by this report to make some additional studies of the calcium metabolism in polycythemia, but the work was halted in its incipiency by our inability to confirm the findings of Brown and Roth. Serum calcium determinations were made in nine cases of typical polycythemia vera usin...

Phenylhydrazine has been used to induce anaemia in Xenopus laevis. The dosage used causes the complete destruction of all mature erythrocytes within twelve days. The anaemia results in the initiation of a wave of erythropoiesis and large numbers of immature erythroid cells are released into the circulation. The morphological and biosynthetic changes which these cells undergo as they differentia...

A new type of magnetically-recoverable catalyst was synthesized by the immobilization of H3PW12O40 on the surface of silica-encapsulated -Fe2O3 nanoparticles. A series of novel 1,3,5-triaryl pyrazoline derivatives has been synthesized by the reaction of chalcone and phenylhydrazine in the presence of the -Fe2O3@SiO2-PW12nanoparticles,  in high yields. The structures of compounds obtained were...

The syntheses of novel hydrazono acyclic nucleosides similar to miconazole scaffolds are described. In this series of acyclic nucleosides, pyrimidine as well as purine and other azole derivatives replaced the imidazole function in miconazole and the ether group was replaced with a hydrazone moiety using phenylhydrazine. To interpret the dominant formation of (E)-hydrazone derivatives rather tha...

1-Cycloalkyl-2-propene-1-ones were synthesized by electrophilic addition of cycloalkanecarboxylic acid chlorides and its mono- dichloride-substituted derivatives to ethylene in the presence an AlCl3 catalyst at a temperature –10 ÷ –150C dichloroethane medium. The resulting vinyl ketones converted chlorination CCl4 –50C corresponding 1-cycloalkyl-2,3-dichloro-1-propanones, which form 1-R´-3-cycl...

The oxidation was carried out on a preparative scale with resting bacteria in the presence of oxygen by the technique described in the preceding paper (2). Oxygen uptake under these conditions ceased when about 1.3 atoms of oxygen had been taken up per molecule of d-quercitol. The addition of phenylhydrazine to the reaction mixture resulted in the deposition of a dextrorotatory, crystalline, ye...

A synthesis of tetrasubstituted pyrazoles containing two, three or four pyridinyl substituents is described. Hence, the reaction of 1,3-dipyridinyl-1,3-propanediones with 2-hydrazinopyridine or phenylhydrazine, respectively, affords the corresponding 1,3,5-trisubstituted pyrazoles. Iodination at the 4-position of the pyrazole nucleus by treatment with I2/HIO3 gives the appropriate 4-iodopyrazol...

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is an important serum regulator of erythropoiesis in vitro. We have now obtained evidence suggesting that PDGF-like molecules may also modulate erythropoiesis in vivo. Western blot analysis of cytoplasmic extracts from Rauscher murine erythroleukemia cells and phenylhydrazine-treated mouse splenic erythroid cells revealed the presence of several PDGF-like p...
