    Notes: Summary Variations of presynaptic inhibition in heteronymous Ia fibres projecting to soleus motoneurones were studied during the first 250 ms of phasic voluntary isometric contractions of the antagonist tibialis anterior muscle in human subjects. During the first 60–80 ms of TA e.m.g activity, presynaptic inhibition was often more marked than at rest, but not in all experimental sessions. After 60–80 ms, presynaptic inhibition was always increased compared to rest and to the onset of TA e.m.g. activity. A “rebound” in femoral nerve induced Ia facilitation was often observed between 90–150 ms. The early increase in presynaptic inhibition was widespread and non specific since it was observed at the onset of extensor carpi radialis contractions of maximal strength. The “rebound” in heteronymous Ia facilitation was interpreted as a relative decrease in presynaptic inhibition to which nonspecific suprasegmental and cutaneous effects contributed. The late increase in presynaptic inhibition in Ia fibers to soleus motoneurones was considered as reciprocally inhibiting the Sol H-reflex, thus counteracting the phasic stretch of the antagonist muscle during TA contraction.

    Notes: Summary The facilitation of the quadriceps (Q) H reflex evoked by stimulation of group I afferents from pretibial flexors exhibits biphasic changes during Q voluntary contraction. At short conditioning-test intervals the facilitation is increased, whereas it is decreased at longer intervals and/or at high conditioning stimulus intensities and/or when the contraction strength is increased. The spatial facilitation at a premotoneuronal level observed at rest on combined stimulation — common peroneal nerve (CPN) and femoral nerve (FN) — regularly disappeared during contraction. It is argued that the increase in facilitation at the onset of the weakest Q contraction reflects a descending facilitation of the interneurones mediating the CPN-induced excitation to Q MNs. An occlusion of descending and peripheral excitation in these interneurones can easily account for the depression of the facilitation when the conditioning stimulus intensity and/or the strength of the contraction is increased. However, occlusion cannot explain all the results and inhibition of the neurones mediating excitation of MNs, i.e. disfacilitation of the MNs, probably contributes to the decrease in facilitation observed during contraction.

    Notes: Summary Homonymous Ia facilitation of quadriceps (Q) motoneurones (MNs) was significantly larger during (and at the onset of) a very weak Q voluntary contraction than at rest. This increase in Ia facilitation only appeared with a conditioning-test interval within the narrow range of 5–9 ms, which fits the time course of the recently described polysynaptic Ia excitation to Q MNs. This suggests that interneurones mediating polysynaptic Ia excitatory effects to Q MNs receive a strong descending excitation during such a contraction. It is therefore argued that these interneurones might mediate part of the descending command to Q MNs during voluntary contraction.

    Notes: Summary Three optimized small-scale methods for amino acid separation are described and compared. Two dimensional separations are based on paper or cellulose thin-layer ionophoresis and chromatography with simple and inexpensive apparatus. The influence of experimental conditions on resolution and amount required for amino acids possessing almost identical mobilities, is studied. The quickest procedure based on the coupling of 200×200×0.25 mm thin-layer, low-voltage electrophoresis (20 V/cm) with chromatography, and the system: cellulose −1.04 mol dm−3 formic acid — tertbutanol/methanol/pyridine/formic acid/water (33∶43∶9.6∶0.4∶20), provides very reproducible results with high separating power for small samples (2–10 nmoles).

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The authors describe an effective method and the conditions (low pH values, dioxane/water (1∶2) media, watersoluble carbodiimide) for making coloured carboxylic peptides from amino-dye (i.e.: 1(4-dimethylamino-1 phenylazo)-4-aminobenzene=p,p′-dimapa-aniline), without polymerisation of unprotected peptide. Some easy chromatographic methods for isolation of peptide-p,p′-dimapa-anilides and some properties of these new compounds (C-dyed-peptides) are given.

The efficiency of the procedures is evaluated in various examples.
