    Notes: Summary The permeability of blood vessels in rat spinal nerve roots was investigated with Evans blue-albumin as an in vivo macromolecular tracer and lanthanum as tracers as an electron microscopic ionic marker added to a fixative. Rats injected intravenously with Evans blue, showed macroscopic distinct staining of dorsal root ganglia, whereas spinal nerve roots remained unstained. Fluorescence microscopy, however, revealed clear extravascular fluorescence both in ventral and dorsal roots 2 or 18 h after tracer administration. Two different types of blood vessels exists in spinal nerve root; large extrinsic (radicular) in the root sheath and minute intrinsic vessels in the parenchyma. Lanthanum added to a fixative, perfused through the vessels was detected in the lumen of both types of vessels, usually adhering to the luminal plasma membrane and in many invaginations from that membrane. Lanthanum also entered the clefts between endothelial cells but was always stopped at the junctions which are, thus, of the tight type. Diffuse penetration of the compound into the cytoplasm was seen in one endothelial cell, but no fenestrations were detected. Junctions between the endothelial cells of vessel in rat spinal nerve roots are impermeable to lanthanum and most likely also to other large molecular substances like albumin. Thus, probable routes for serum albumin to enter the nerve rools, where it normally is present, must be either by centripetal extracellular diffusion from the ganglia and the peripheral nerve or by vascular leakage in the roots, caused by for instance pinocytosis across endothelial cells.

    Notes: Abstract In separate groups of Fischer 344 and Long Evans rats, initial sensitivity and acute tolerance to ethanol were determined in a jumping test. Sensitivity measurements in each strain were carried out in separate subgroups at ethanol doses of 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 g/kg IP. Similarly, acute tolerance was measured in different subgroups of each strain using the method of two successive doses of ethanol (2 + 0.4 g/kg; 2 + 0.7 g/kg and 2 + 1.0 g/kg, respectively). After completion of sensitivity and acute tolerance measurement, acute tolerance was then tested in all rats. Based on their acute tolerance values, they were divided into three groups: high, medium, and low. Two weeks after the last acute tolerance test, six rats from each group (i.e., the six highest and six lowest from the high and low acute tolerance groups, respectively, and six from the midrange of the medium tolerance group) were tested for voluntary ethanol drinking in the limited access model. Long Evans rats had lower initial CNS sensitivity to ethanol-induced impairment of jumping performance than Fischer 344 rats. Long Evans rats also drank significantly more alcohol than the Fischer 344 but there was no significant difference in acute tolerance development between these two strains. Moreover, within each strain the rats differing in acute tolerance development (i.e., high, medium, and low) showed no difference in alcohol consumption. These results suggest that acute tolerance development is not the main determinant of differences in ethanol drinking.

    Notes: Summary Soft winter wheat lines were crossed with Agropyron intermedium, A. elongatum and A. trichophorum using pollen from single plants of Agropyron spp. to pollinate wheat spikes. Not only species but also individual plants within varieties of Agropyron species differed in percent seed set with a wheat genotype. In two arrays of crosses between two phenotypically different plants of A. elongatum and nine wheat lines, one Agropyron plant gave higher seed set (overall=27.1%) than the other (overall=3.7%). The differences were significant in seven of the nine cross combinations. Results are consistent with the hypothesis that these two plants differ in their crossability as pollen parents with wheat, and suggest the possibility of occurrence of crossability genes in wheatgrasses. The success rate of hybrid embryo rescue was higher (87.5%) with cold treatment (4°C) than without cold treatment (75.0%) of excised embryos on culture media. Results underscore the significance of genotype of the alien species for crossing with low crossable wheats, and of the physical factors for improving embryo rescue in wide crosses.
