    Notes: A new simulation method has been developed to investigate the excitation and saturation processes of toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes (TAE modes). The background plasma is described by a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fluid model, while the kinetic evolution of energetic alpha particles is followed by the drift kinetic equation. The magnetic fluctuation of n=2 mode develops and saturates at the level of 1.8×10−3 of the equilibrium field when the initial beta of alpha particles is 2% at the magnetic axis. After saturation, the TAE mode amplitude shows an oscillatory behavior with a frequency corresponding to the bounce frequency of the alpha particles trapped by the TAE mode. The decrease of the power transfer rate from the alpha particles to the TAE mode, which is due to the trapped particle effect of a finite-amplitude wave, causes the saturation. From the linear growth rate the saturation level can be estimated. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Resistance to potato viruses was examined in the F1 hybrids (TET) obtained from a cross between a diploid (2n = 24), tuber-bearing interspecific hybrid 87HW13.7 (Solanum tuberosum W231 ×S. multi-dissectum PI 473354) and a diploid (2n = 24), nontuber-bearing wild potato species (S. brevidens CPC 2451) using S. phureja IvP35 (2n = 24) for rescue pollination. The parental plants were susceptible to PVX, whereas two hybrids (TET38.2 and TET38.9) and S. phureja IvP35 reacted with hypersensitivity to PVX. Two hybrids (TET 38.9 and TET 38.12) were extremely resistant to PVY°, which was similar to S. brevidens and S. phureja IvP35, whereas the remaining two hybrids were moderately resistant to PVY°. No resistance to PVA and PLRV was observed in the progenies, in contrast to S. brevidens which was extremely resistant to PVA and PLRV. Hypersensitivity to PVX in two progenies suggested (1) integration by somatic translocation or heterofertilization and expression of genes from the rescue pollinator S. phureja IvP35, or (2) transgressive or complementary gene action.

    Notes: We report a case of idiopathic portal hypertension (IPH) with unusual liver pathology. The liver showed changes similar to these previously reported in IPH and, in addition, we observed the unusual features of prolapse of hepatocytes into portal tracts and also into the subendothelial space of hepatic veins. Hepatocyte prolapse into hepatic veins has previously been reported only in patients with a history of androgenic steroid therapy and immunosuppressive therapy. We speculate that, in our case, prolapse of hepatocytes could be related to the abnormal intrahepatic blood flow or to intrahepatic vasculopathy.

    Notes: Abstract. Infectious salmon anaemia (ISA) is a viral disease of farmed Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., in Norway. The enveloped virus particles (100nm) believed to be the causative agent of the disease have been observed budding from endothelial cells in heart blood vessels. However, it is not known if the virus propagates in endothelial cells in all tissues/organs, if other target cells exist or if material collected from different salmon farms with natural outbreaks of ISA contain the same virus particles. Salmon smolts from three hatcheries with no history of disease were taken into the laboratory and experimentally challenged with ISA collected from Atlantic salmon during natural outbreaks of the disease in three different fish farms outside Bergen. Norway. Tissues for TEM studies were Collected from: (1) organs that showed clinical signs of ISA (i.e. used in the diagnosis of the disease); (2) tissues believed to be important in transmission of the virus (integument, kidney, urinary bladder, gut and somatic muscle); and (3) hormone-producing tissues (pituitary gland, saccus vasculosus, thymus, thyroid, ultimobranehial gland, gonad, head kidney, heart and ventral aorta). The same virus as that believed to be the causative agent of ISA was found in all tissues examined from the challenged fish, i.e. a multiorgan infection with the same virus present in salmon from all three fish farms. The virus particles are about 100 nm in diameter, consisting of a slightly pleomorphic unit membrane envelope within which are a number of granules about 10–12nm in diameter. The granules seemed to be arranged in two concentric circles (spheres). The virus was seen budding from the surface of endothelial cells in blood vessels/sinus only. However, the virus was found intracellularly in both endothelial cells and in leucocytes.

    Notes: Summary Occlusal sounds, contact timings and time moments were measured and analysed on 10 subjects onto whom an occlusal interference was created experimentally. A full-cast double crown was unilaterally set on the upper first molar of each subject, then gradually elevated for 0.06, 0.10, 0.20 and 0.30 mm by inserting a pre-calibrated metal folio. Occlusal sound was measured with an analyser designed for the purpose. Timings and time moments were analysed with a T-scan system. All measurements were performed at least 10 times per subject. The results showed that prolonged occlusal sound duration, changes in acoustic signal waveform and increased shift of the centre of effort were observed concomitantly with crown elevation. Differences in these values at 0.06mm as compared with those at baseline were not statistically significant. This could be explained through a physiological compensation by the periodontal ligament. The differences with baseline were statistically significant from 0.10mm ongoing. The distribution of occlusal conacts was determined by the use of a newly developed parameter. Referred to as ‘Tap Score’, the parameter consists of converting contact timings occuring in seven ranges into least-square-based weighted scores. Analysis of the tap score disclosed evident imbalance between the crowned and the non-crowned side starting from 0.10mm elevation, whereby a forward shift of the major contact point was observed on the non-crowned side. Our study demonstrated that evident changes in gnathosonic and T-scan parameters are likely to occur at a crown elevation within a 0.06–0.10 mm range. Not only did the results show the analytical capacity of the combined use of occlusal sound analyser and T-scan, but also they confirmed that a method using simple chairside devices, e.g. T-scan and Dental Sound Checker, could be helpful in bringing further understanding and information on occlusal interference.

    Notes: Abstract Nickel hydroxide is widely used as an active material in pasted-type nickel electrodes. Physical properties of several nickel hydroxide powders have been examined by laser diffraction, BET, X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis and SEM. Nickel hydroxide powder with a smaller crystalline size shows better charge-discharge cyclic characteristics. The chemical diffusion coefficients of the proton in the nickel hydroxide sample are measured by a current pulse relaxation method. Nickel hydroxide with a smaller crystalline size shows a higher proton diffusion coefficient, giving excellent cycling behaviour.

    Notes: Abstract We have demonstrated the presence of estrogen receptor mRNA and the mature protein in the cytoplasm and nucleus, respectively, of a 9,10-dimethyl-1,2-benzathracene-induced submandibular gland tumor in female rats. We have previously shown that progesterone receptors are also present in human salivary gland tumors. These results suggest that endocrine therapy may be effective in treatment of submandibular gland tumors.

    Notes: Abstract To elucidate the signal transduction system in the production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) by porcine tracheal smooth muscle cells in culture (PTSMC), we examined the pattern of arachidonic acid metabolites released from PTSMC and the relationship between bradykinin-stimulated rises in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) and PGE2 production by PTSMC. We next examined the effect of dexamethasone on these parameters. Bradykinin induced a dose-dependent increase in both the rise in [Ca2+]i and PGE2 production by PTSMC. The increase in [Ca2+]i paralleled an increase in PGE2 production. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) revealed that dexamethasone-treated PTSMC were suppressed to release arachidonic acid metabolites such as PGE2 and prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α). Incubation of PTSMC with 10−6M dexamethasone for 24 h significantly suppressed both the rise in [Ca2+]i and PGE2 production by PTSMC in response to bradykinin, and also significantly suppressed bradykinin-stimulated release of radioactivity from PTSMC prelabeled with 3H-labeled arachidonic acid (3H-AA). When PTSMC pretreated with dexamethasone were incubated with 170 nM prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) or 20 μM arachidonic acid; PTSMC synthesized less PGE2 than control PTSMC. Results suggest that bradykinin stimulates PTSMC to produce PGE2 via the signal transduction system including Ca2+, and dexamethasone appeared to suppress PGE2 production by reducing the activity of cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) and PGE2 synthase. However, we failed to demonstrate the suppression of the activity of cyclooxygenase in PTSMC by dexamethasone. Since the elevation of [Ca2+]i is necessary for the contraction of airway smooth muscles, dexamethasone seems to reduce the contraction of airway.
