Beneficial effect of chloramphenicol on pyrexia in patients with acute leukemia.

Abstract:

:6 patients with acute leukemia are described. All of them suffered from high temperature and malaise, and showed negative urine and blood cultures. High doses of gentamicin, cephalothin and cerebenicillin failed to lower the fever. The temperature became normal after administration of chloramphenicol (CAP) 2.0 g/day. In 3 out of 6 patients the peripheral blood blast cell count decreased following CAP administration. Incubation of acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells with CAP in vitro showed a marked decrease in the DNA synthesizing activity of the leukemic cells. The role of CAP as an additional tool in the treatment of acute leukemia is discussed.

  • Characterization of a diester lipase activity in human erythrocytes.

    abstract::A diester lipase activity is described in human red blood cells (RBC). Diester lipase activity acts as a membrane-bound enzyme and is assayed using intact RBC as the enzyme source. An emulsion of di-[3H]-oleoylglycerol (0.6 mM) serves as the substrate. The optimum pH for the reaction is 7.8 at 37 degrees C. Lipolytic ...
