    Notes: Summary Thirty two human tumours, mainly neurogenic, have been investigated for the presence of adenovirus-related RNA sequences.3H-labelled tumour virus DNA probes derived from human adenoviruses types 2 and 12, bovine adenovirus type 3, and avian adenovirus CELO were hybridized in-situ on tumour kryostat sections under conditions that detect complementary RNA. Tumour virus-related RNA was detected in 62% of all tumours tested, but was not detectable in normal human brain tissues. Expression of tumour virus-related RNA was found in 2/4 astrocytomas, 2/4 metastatic brain carcinomas, 2/2 glioblastomas, 1/1 melanoma, 5/7 meningiomas, 4/4 neurinomas, 1/2 oligodendrogliomas, and 1/1 rhabdomyosarcoma. The presence of adenovirus-related RNA in the majority of human neurogenic tumours may reflect a viral involvement in the pathogenesis of these tumours.

    Notes: Abstract Physiological effects of exposure to silver (AgCln n−1; 250 μg Ag l−1 or 1000 μg Ag l−1) in seawater fish were investigated using adult starry flounders. While all fish survived up to 10 days in 250 μg Ag l−1, flounders started to die after day 4 in 1000 μg l−1. Dose-dependent increases in plasma and hepatic silver concentrations showed that silver was available for uptake. There were minimal negative effects on hematological parameters, acid-base status, and blood gases. Plasma ammonia showed a pronounced (three- to four-fold), but transient increase in flounders exposed to either 250 μg Ag l−1 or 1000 μg Ag l−1. Whole body ammonia and acid equivalent efflux measurements indicated that ammonia retention was due to a combination of stimulated production and inhibited excretion. In the 1000-μg Ag l−1 group there was a similar transient increase in plasma [magnesium], which was restored by day 4. In contrast, plasma chloride and sodium levels increased gradually towards the point when fish began to die. At 250 μg Ag l−1, the Na+/K+-ATPase activity of the intestine was unaffected but there was a two-fold increase in branchial Na+/K+-ATPase activity. The latter effect was interpreted as compensation for an elevated chloride and sodium load. The increases in plasma chloride and sodium concentrations were accompanied by a marked suppression of drinking, thereby indicating that acute silver toxicity was likely caused by a combination of elevated electrolyte concentrations and dehydration.
