Minusculc amount of human endomyocardial tissues Was sectioned and incubated in [125I]-PIN, emulsion-coatcd covcrslips Were attached to the slides and then developed, fixed and staincd after exposure. The grain density was quantified using a computer image analyzer.The autoradiograms demonstrated the sites of cardiac β-receptorbinding with clear grains, and the non-specific binding was below 10%-20%' of the total binding. Linearregression analysis for the plot of specific cpm against specific grains at each concentration of [125I]-PINgave ay value of 0.99. Using this technique, we identified down-regulation of cardiac β-receptors inpatients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) as compared with that of normal human subjects.展开更多

The first biphasic open one-compartment pharmacokinetic model is described. Its analytical solutions to drug concentration were developed from parameters of an open two-compartment pharmacokinetic model. The model is ...The first biphasic open one-compartment pharmacokinetic model is described. Its analytical solutions to drug concentration were developed from parameters of an open two-compartment pharmacokinetic model. The model is used to explain the unusually large compartment volumes and apparent volumes of distribution of lipophilic drugs, as well as to identify which of the pharmacokinetic parameters of the classical compartment models are biologically relevant.展开更多
