Exogenous Triggering Factor for the Large Earthguakes

Presented October 5, 1999

 

Abstract. The problem of the distribution of planets and "couple of planets" in the moment of the origin of the earthquakes for the Caucasus, Turkey-Greece united region has been considered.

The obtained results enable us to make following conclusions: if the definite distribution of planets or "couple of planets" can play a role of the "triggering mechanism" then for the considered regions maximum and real probabilities of getting of the planets and "couple of planets" in the definite sectors are calculated.

 One interesting fact should be mentioned here: some pla-nets and couple of planets create the so-called "prohibited zo-ne" that is if the planet or couple of planets are in their prohi-bited zone, the probability of the origin of the large earthquakes is extremely small.

Key words: earthquake, triggering factor, exogenous.

Influence of Automatic Behaiour on Discriminative Learning

Presented by Member of the Academy T.Oniani, August 2, 1999

 

Abstract. The experiments were carried out in 4 cats in three series. First, the animals were trained to perform a conditioned automatic movement to one feeder. Numbers of trials were 224, 230 and 285 in three cats. Then a new conditioned instrumental reflex was elaborated to the opposite feeder. Finally, the trained and control cats were engaged in discriminative learning tasks. The results demonstrate that behavioural automaticity and discriminative learning have distinct and contradictory nature. They are based on memory forms differing by their structure. Attention is not involved in automatic behaviour but inevitably participates in discriminative learning. Time duration of automatic behaviour is an important factor determining the strength of retention in the brain.

Key words: memory, automatic behaviour, discriminative learning, attention.

Cholinergic Control of Emotional Memory in Rats

Presented by Member of the Academy T. Ioseliani, September 14, 1999

 

Abstract. Possible role of cholinergic input to hippocampus is considered in cognitive and emotional processes. With an aim to elucidate this problem influences of septal lesion, acetylcholinestherase inhibitor (galanthamine), and acetylcholine receptor blocker (atropine) were tested in Punished Water Drinking conflict test, in adult rats. It was found that septal lesion significantly decreased shock-induced memory retention, atropine insignificantly decreased retention time, while galanthamine significantly increased aversive memory retention. These results corroborate the notion that hippocampal theta-activity correlates with negative emotions and with improvement of aversive learning processes.

On Conformational Possibilities of Poly (L-Glutamic Acid)

Presented September 6, 1999.

 

Abstract. Conformational analysis of the (Glu)10 in uncharged and in charged states have been done in the regular main chain approximation. The electrostatic interactions have been estimated using three different values of electrostatic constants (e): e=4, e=R (R is a distance between interacting atoms) and conformationaly dependent values of e for each atom-atom interaction. The last evaluations of e are done accordingly as proposed by our method. The result of analysis allows us to suppose that the side chain charging changes the conformational possibility of the (Glu)10 homopolypeptides, making the extendent helix conformation more preferable relative to other conformations and a- helical conformation as well.

Key words: dielectric constant, uncharged and charged poly (L-Glu).

presented September 21, 1999

 

Abstract. Glutamine synthetase and glutamate dehydrogenase activities, as well as protein spectrum of cultivated in Georgia leaves and roots of young seedlings of different soya varieties have been studied. It has been stated that protein content is 5-fold higher in leaves as compared with roots. isoelectrofocusing of leaf and root proteins revealed that leaf proteins spectrum is more diverse. Difference in protein spectrum of studied varieties is little. Glutamine synthetase and glutamate dehydrogenase activities are higher in roots as compared with leaves. With plant ageing, while glutamine synthetase activities decrease in vegetative organs, glutamate dehydrogenase activities sharply increase, independently from protein amount change. The increase of glutamate dehydrogenase activities is more significant in roots, indicating the participation of glutamate dehydrogenase in ammonia assimilation in this organ.

Key words: soya varieties, glutamine synthetase, glutamate dehydrogenase, ammonia assimilation, protein spectrum.

Influence of Constituents of the Synaptosomal Factor on the NaK-ATPase activity

Presented by Member of the Academy T. Oniani, September 28, 1999

 

Abstract. Fractionation of the Synaptosomal Factor by HPLC recovered two active fractions that show influence on the NaK-ATPase activity. One of them is high -molecular-weight proteinous fraction and possesses ability of elimination the inhibitory effect of noradrenalin, and the second, directly inhibits the enzyme. This activity was not observed in preparations obtained after subsequent fractionation of the activatory fraction by the ion exchange HPLC. Even more, there was prominent reversed action, particularly, deepening of the enzyme inhibition by the noradrenalin. The full-fledged interpretation of the results currently is not possible and it needs further investigations but must be noted that enzyme activation effect might be caused by multicomponent complex.

Key words: NaK-ATPase, Synaptosomal Factor (SF), noradrenalin (NA).

P450 where 9 regions of similarity were observed. 7 regions were found with tomato, and only 2 regions with the Glycyrrhiza and Catharanthus P450. Among structural domains two out of four, domains B and D were showing high conservation among plant P450. These regions of similarity may correspond to conserved functional regions and should improve our understanding of the evolution of these proteins.

Key words: cytochrome P450, sequence analysis of the plant cytochrome P450.

Antioxidating Properties of the Plaferon-LB

Presented by

 

Abstract. Plaferon LB (PLB) is a mixture of biologically active compounds from human placenta amniotic membrane. Due to its immunomodulatory, antiishemic, antitoxic and anti-inflammatory properties PLB is widely used in clinical practice. Lipid peroxidation is a well-established mechanism of cellular injury and this process occurs in association with certain pathological conditions. Present study was aimed to investigate if PLB possesses antioxidant properties. Following products of lipid peroxidation were measured: malondialdehyde (MDA) and MDA plus 4-hydroxyalkenals (4-HAE). Experiments were carried out with three types of rat brain and  liver P2 membrane fraction and human plasma: (1) control untreated; (2) incubated with Fe2+ during one hour and (3) treated simultaneously with Fe2+ and PLB for the same period of time. It was shown that PLB causes significant decrease in the   Fe2+ induced elevated amount of MDA (but not MDA + 4-HAE). Effect is dose-dependent and is achieved by the cliPsychology
