Decrease of phenylalanine hydroxylase during hepatocyte proliferation

In partially hepatectomized rats, the activity of phenylalanine hydroxylase decreased in the regenerating liver but not in the kidney. The concentration of corticosterone in the plasma of hepatectomized rats increased, and phenylalanine hydroxylase, despite being cortisol inducible, decreased in these as well as simultaneously adrenalectomized rats, showing lack of correlation between the changes of the steroid and the enzyme during the regeneration process. The decrease in the enzyme activity could be prevented by administering, during hepatic regeneration, only noradrenaline and adrenergic blocking agents, among the many hormones and phenyl compounds tested. A decrease in hepatic phenylalanine hydroxylase was also observed during two other conditions of hepatocyte cell proliferation obtained after giving chlorophenoxyisobutyrate and α-hexachlorocyclohexane.

Fracture Behavior of Ferrocement Beams

An attempt is made to study the fracture behavior of ferrocement beams using J-integral and critical crack opening displacement approaches. Ferrocement beams with three different relative notch depths and different percentages of mesh reinforcement were tested in four-point bending (third-point loading). The experimental results were used to evaluate the apparent J-integral and CODc values. Results show that the apparent J-integral does not seem to follow any particular trend in variation with notch depth, but is sensitive to the increase of mesh reinforcement. Hence, the apparent J-integral appears to be a useful fracture criterion for ferrocement. The computed values of CODt are found to be dependent on the depth of notch and, thus, cannot possibly be considered as a suitable fracture criterion for ferrocement.
