    Notes: Abstract : The role of 3′,5′-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) in the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) was investigated in rat pinealocytes. Treatment with dibutyryl cGMP (DBcGMP) dosedependently increased the phosphorylation of both p44 and p42 isoforms of MAPK. This effect of DBcGMP was abolished by PD98059 (a MAPK kinase inhibitor), H7 (a nonspecific protein kinase inhibitor), and KT5823 [a selective cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) inhibitor]. Elevation of cellular cGMP content by treatment with norepinephrine, zaprinast (a cGMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor), or nitroprusside was effective in activating MAPK. Natriuretic peptides that were effective in elevating cGMP levels in this tissue were also effective in activating MAPK. Our results indicate that, in this neuroendocrine tissue, the cGMP/PKG signaling pathway is an important mechanism used by hormones and neurotransmitters in activating MAPK.

    Notes: A 7-year-old Italian girl with juvenile colloid milium was studied with histological, immunohistochemical, and electron microscopic methods. This patient had a well-documented history of severe sunburn and developed the lesions on the face shortly afterward. Numerous apoptotic keratinocytes were observed in the lower epidermis. These cells began their degeneration with filamentous whorl formation (or filamentous degeneration) of tonofilaments. In the papillary dermis the colloid substance was resolved by the electron microscopy into either wavy, thin filaments derived from the epidermal keratinocytes or typical amyloid filaments. Many desmosomes and gap junctions were found in the colloid substance. Polyclonal antikeratin antibody (DAKO) was positive in the colloid substance, particularly in the parts close to the epidermis. These findings suggested that juvenile colloid milium is different from adult colloid milium despite clinical similarities and that the former belongs to the group of actinic amyloid K, i.e. amyloidoses due to actinic degeneration of keratinocyte and its keratin.

    Notes: Several monoclonal antibodies (MAB) have been produced using an eccrine carcinoma cell line as an immunogen. One such MAB, SKH1, reacted with both the secretory portion and coiled duct of the eccrine and with the secretory portion of apocrine gland. SKH1, however, did not react with myoepithelial cells, intradermal ducts of both types of sweat gland, or with other components of normal axillary skin including the epidermis and follicular apparatus. The reaction was strongest if the specimen was fixed with 80% methanol, and moderate on non-fixed or acid-alcohol-fixed specimens. Only weak reaction was obtained on cold acetone-fixed specimens, and reaction was negative with formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues. SKH1 reacted positively with the cytoskeleton of the eccrine carcinoma cell line, Colo-16 and MCF-7. Applied to pathological skin specimens, SKH1 reacted with the tumor cells of clear cell hidradenoma, syringocystadenoma papilliferum, and extramammary Paget's disease. SKH1 also reacted with the tumor cells of meta-static adenocarcinomas arising from lung, breast and ovary. SKH1 did not react with the majority of tumor cells of eccrine poroma, but reacted with single–layered cells lining narrow ductal lumina. SKH1 did not react with epithelial cells lining cystic or ductal lumina of syringoma, but reacted moderately with the amorphous keratin–like substance filling the lumina. Immunoblot analysis revealed that SKH1 recognizes a 40 Kd sweat gland-associated antigen, and can be an aid to identifying tumors arising from sweat gland structures.

    Notes: A hair matrix tumor showing an unusual tumor cell arrangement was found at the base of a solitary trichoepithelioma. Coexisting with solid epithelial islands and immature hair follicle-like structures, areas of alternating epithelial cords and hand-like stroma resembling the Verocay bodies of neurilemmoma or “ripplemarks” on waves were found. In other areas myxomatous degeneration of the stroma changed the rippling into a cribriform pattern. In some parts of the tumor there was a dense melanin pigment associated with MEL5 stained melanocytes. S-100 and GDI (OKT6) antigen stains demonstrated Langerhans cells scattered in the parenchyma and less frequently in the stroma. The majority of tumor cells were considered immature pilar cortical cells because of the following: 1. HKN-6 was strongly positive; 2. a large number of melanocytes were associated with tumor cells in some foci; 3. ultrastructurally immature tumor cells, which had electron-dense tonofilaments and many desmosomes, were transformed without production of trichohyalin granules into semikeratinized cells which showed nuclear degeneration and loss of electron density in tonofilaments. This tumor, however, has not attained the degree of differentiation observed in trichoblastoma (1) another example of an immature cortical cell tumor. Squamous eddy-like or horn pearl-like foci of incomplete keratinization and large keratin-filled cysts were also present within the immature parenchyma, indicating that some immature cells were differentiating toward non-cortical cells, as found in the outer sheath. We would like to designate this tumor “rippled pattern trichomatricoma”, a new entity.

    Notes: Abstract Manganese-molybdenum oxide electrodes were prepared by anodic deposition on an IrO2-coated titanium substrate at a constant current density of 600Am−2 from baths containing 0.2M MnSO4 and 0–0.1M Na2MoO4 at 90∘C and pH 0.5. These electrodes were characterised for oxygen evolution in the electrolysis at 1,000Am−2 in 0.5M NaCl solution at 30∘C and pH 8 or 12. The most active and stable oxygen evolving anode exhibited 100% efficiency for oxygen evolution, and an efficiency of 98.5% for over 1,500 h at pH 12 and of 96.5% for over 2,800 h at pH 8 of continuous electrolysis. X-ray diffraction measurement and XPS analysis indicated that the deposits consist of a nanocrystalline single γ-MnO2 type phase, and manganese and molybdenum in the deposits are in the Mn4+ and Mo6+ states. The electrochemical studies showed that the manganese-molybdenum oxide electrodes drastically reduced the electrocatalytic activity for chlorine evolution to the undetectable level, resulting in 100% efficiency for oxygen evolution, although the addition of molybdenum slightly increased the oxygen overpotential.

    Antikeratin autoantibodies in the amyloid deposits of lichen amyloidosus and macular amyloidosis (1989)

    Notes: Summary In order to characterize immunoglobulins found on amyloid deposits of lichen amyloidosus and macular amyloidosis, an elution from cryostat sections was performed with citrate buffer, glycine buffer, NaCl, and PBS. Resulting eluates (mainly IgG) were examined with dot immunoblotting and SDS-PAGE immunoblotting and were found to react with the human epidermal keratin of 50 and 67 kD. Antikeratin autoantibody activities in normal murine and human sera were examined using a dot immunoblotting assay. In murine sera, titers of IgG and IgM autoantibodies were higher in older mice. The human cord blood showed significantly lower IgM autoantibody titers, whereas IgG antibody titers showed no significant differences from adults' sera, probably due to the permeability of IgG through the placental barrier. A stronger antibody activity in older individuals was thought to be due to the repeated exposures to keratin proteins derived from apoptotic keratinocytes. Sera from lichen amyloidosus and macular amyloidosis patients did not show any difference from normal controls in their antikeratin titers. It was concluded that the patients with lichenoid or macular amyloidosis are capable of producing a normal level of antikeratin autoantibodies. However, the removal of opsonized keratin-type amyloid from the skin is slow or deficient due to as yet unknown factors.

    Notes: Abstract Grass puffer Fugu niphobles, captured in November 1986 at Shimoda, Japan, and then reared at different temperatures ranging from 10 to 29°C, was examined for microflora changes in the skin, gill and intestines. At 10°C, the skin and gill were colonized mainly by Pseudomonas, Flavobacterium and Moraxella, while at 29°C Vibrio and Flavobacterium appeared abundantly. The intestinal microflora, consisting of Vibrio, Pseudomonas and Flavobacterium, revealed little temperature dependence, although the intrageneric composition of Vibrio changed conspicuously depending on the change of water temperature. Vibrio group 1, tentatively identified as V. alginolyticus, was detected in all tissues examined at 20 and 29°C. This, along with the fact that V. alginolyticus produces tetrodotoxin, suggests that the tetrodotoxin contained in puffer is, at least partly, accounted for by this bacterial species inhabiting intestines.

    Notes: Abstract Several live specimens of the blue-ringed octopus Octopus maculosus were collected from the Philippines in November 1985, and from Japan in February 1986, and the distribution of toxicity, along with toxin composition, in the posterior salivary gland and other soft parts were examined. Tetrodotoxin (TTX: 1400 mouse units g-1) was detected in the posterior salivary gland of a Japanese specimen, while not only the salivary gland but other soft parts were toxic in the Philippine specimens. The Philippine specimens contained TTX and anhydrotetrodotoxin, the Japanese specimen TTX, 4-epitetrodotoxin, and an unknown toxin. The posterior salivary gland, intestine and other parts were excised from the Philippine specimens and examined for bacterial flora. Twenty-two dominant strains were isolated and cultured in a 2xORI medium (Ocean Research Institute, Simidu and Tsukamoto 1985) at 20°C for 20 to 48 h. Cells were harvested by centrifugation, and disrupted by ultrasonication. The toxins were partially purified from the cell lyzate by ultrafiltration and Bio-Gel P-2 column-chromatography. Instrumental analyses disclosed that 16 of the 22 strains produced TTX and/or related substances. Six strains which clearly exhibited TTX productivity were identified as Alteromonas (2 strains), Bacillus (2), Pseudomonas (1) and Vibrio (1), based on biochemical and biological characteristics. Of these, one strain each of Bacillus and Pseudomonas produced TTX at a level detectable by the mouse assay.

    Notes: Abstract The plasma concentrations of fructose, glucose, free fatty acids (FFA) and triglycerides (TG) were measured in dogs and cats. Changes in these concentrations were investigated in dogs by an intravenous fructose tolerance test (IVFTT) at a dose of 0.1 g/kg body weight. Fructose concentrations in the plasma of dogs were significantly higher than those of cats. There was no significant difference in plasma glucose concentrations between dogs and cats. Plasma FFA concentrations decreased and TG concentrations increased after feeding in both dogs and cats. During the IVFTT, the plasma fructose concentrations in the dogs increased rapidly to a peak by 2 min and then decreased to half of the peak by 5 min after the administration of fructose. Administration of fructose resulted in an increase in the plasma TG concentrations and reduced plasma FFA concentrations in the dogs. Only 4% of the administered fructose was detected in the urine of dogs following IVFTT. Plasma fructose was considered to be rapidly absorbed and metabolized in both dogs and cats. However, as with glucose metabolism, there appear to be some differences in fructose metabolism between dogs and cats.

    Notes: Abstract: The incidence, specificity and clinical significance of positivity for serum antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) was investigated in 60 patients with primary Sjögren’s syndrome (SjS). The indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) technique and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were used to measure ANCA. Purified myeloperoxidase (MPO), lactoferrin (LF), cathepsin-G (CTG) and elastase (HLE) served as ANCA antigens for the ELISA. Ten (16.7%) of the 60 SjS patients showed positivity by IIF for perinuclear, but not cytoplasmic, ANCA. Four of the 60 sera were shown to be positive for LF, four for MPO, 0 for CTG and 0 for HLE by ELISA. There was no correlation between ANCA positivity and clinical features. ANCA in patients with SjS might be an epiphenomenon of polyclonal B-cell activation.
