    Notes: The distribution and activity patterns of monoamine oxidase and monoaminergic (formaldehyde-induced) fluorescence in the central nervous system of web-building and hunting spiders have been studied using histochemical methods. Enzyme activity occurred in the neuronal perikarya and in varying intensity in the structures of the neuropile mass, but only when dopamine, adrenaline, and noradrenaline were used as substrates. The optic centres of the spider brain normally exhibited relatively strong enzyme reactions when compared with the staining intensity of the rest of the nervous system.The neuronal cell bodies contained numerous granules of yellow-green fluorescence. Monoaminergic fluorescence of the neuropile was generally a weak green. The optic mases of the hunting spiders, the anterior bridge, several commissures of the ventral cord, and the neural lamellae showed a slightly higher fluorescence intensity and single fluorescing granules.The results obtained indicate the presence of catecholamines in the spider nervous system.

    Notes: The morphology of the foregut muscles of five spider families (Theraphosidae, Agelenidae, Araneidae, Lycosidae, Salticidae) was described, and the individual fibre numbers and fibre cross diameters of the muscles were determined. The nomenclature of these muscles was reviewed and modified if necessary.Oxidative enzyme and myosin-ATPase histochemistry revealed eight dilatatory muscles of the foregut to consist of slow (type I) fibres, while fast fibres (type IIB), and intermediate fibres, were only to be found in the two other muscles of the foregut, and in the remaining prosomal muscles (type IIA fibres around the poison gland).The eight sucking muscles proper of the foregut also showed stronger activities of transmitter metabolizing enzymes [monoamine oxidase, glutamate dehydrogenase(NAD)], and comparatively distinct amounts of glycogen and lipids.

    Notes: Shells from eggs of the tuatara (Sphenodon punctatus) are 0.2 mm thick and are composed of a layer of calcite and a multi-layered, fibrous shell membrane. Most of the calcareous layer is composed of roughly circular columns of crystalline material that extend deep into the shell membrane. The crystalline matrix of the columns is interwoven with fibers of the shell membrane except near the outer surface of the eggshell, where the calcareous material is more compact. Overlying the columns is a granular layer composed of blocks of crystalline material of random size, shape, and orientation. Disruption of this granular layer, perhaps through swelling of the eggs or as a result of environmental factors, gives the outer surface of the eggshell a coarse, weathered appearance. Removal of the calcareous material with a decalcifying agent shows that the outer surface of the shell membrane is composed of a meshwork of small fibers bound together by an amorphous matrix. No matrix was observed in inner layers of the shell membrane, and the fibers of these inner layers are arranged somewhat more regularly than the outer fibers. No structure comparable to the central cores of avian and certain chelonian eggs was observed in eggshells of the tuatara.

    Notes: Early corpora lutea (CL) of the rat were histologically examined on Day 1, 2, 4, and 6 of gestation. Measurements were taken of total volume and of the number of luteal and endothelial cells in one CL of both ovaries of five rats at each stage examined. CL volume increased over the 6 days from --0.76 to 1.39μl and peripheral plasma progesterone levels from 8.1 to 33.2 ng/ml. The number of luteal cells per CL (range 303,000 to 37,000) did not significantly change, and there was no evidence of mitosis or death amongst these cells. Luteal cell volume increased from 1.74 to 3.49 pl and nuclear volume from 0.25 to 0.38 pl, the former being the major cause of CL growth. The CL appeared to be richly vascularized, even on Day 1, and the number of endothelial cells per CL (range 289,000 to 354,000) remained relatively constant over the period examined.It was concluded that the number of luteal cells per CL is determined prior to or around ovulation in the rat and that subsequent growth of the CL is due to hypertrophy and not hyperplasia.

    Notes: Destructive lesions were made in the right olfactory bulb of 16 adult opossums. Following postoperative survival periods of 4 to 31 days, the animals were sacrificed and perfused with 10% Formalin. Frozen sections of the brain were cut in either the coronal, horizontal, or sagittal plane and processed by the Fink-Heimer II method. Degenerating axons of olfactory bulb neurons were traced caudally in the ipsilateral lateral olfactory tract (LOT). Small lesions revealed a topographic representation of the olfactory bulb within the LOT. The dorsal, lateral, and ventral parts of the bulb were, respectively, represented in the dorsal, intermediate, and ventral parts of the LOT. Terminal degeneration was observed in the superficial half of the molecular layer ipsilaterally in the following structures: anterior olfactory nucleus, anterior hippocampal rudiment, olfactory tubercle, piriform cortex, ventrolateral frontal neocortex, lateral entorhinal cortex, nucleus of the LOT, and the lateral aspect of the cortical amygdaloid nucleus. No degeneration was observed in the anterior limb of the anterior commissure. Dorsal and lateral parts of the olfactory bulb projected to the anterolateral aspect of the olfactory tubercle, whereas the ventral part projected heavily to the entire tubercle. There was no evidence of topographic projections to other olfactory structures. The observations of the present investigation indicated that the olfactory bulb projections in the opossum, a primitive mammal, are essentially comparable with those of placental mammals.

    Morphometric analysis of the corpus luteum of 16-day pregnant rats: The effect of preparative procedures on volume of luteal cell, interstitial, and vascular compartments (1983)

    Notes: The volumes of the major tissue compartments, vascular space, interstitial space, and luteal cells, in the corpus luteum (CL) of 16-day pregnant rats were determined morphometrically after different fixation procedures. Ovaries were fixed by perfusion at physiologic pressures (PF), by immersion directly in fixative (IF), by immersion after clamping blood vessels to prevent escape of blood (IFC), or by immersion after administration of heparin to prevent blood clotting (IFH). Three CL in each of eight ovaries were examined for each fixation method. Total volumes were significantly larger in CL fixed by PF and IFC, and approximated physiologic volumes as assessed from frozen ovaries. Perfusion-fixed CL had significantly larger vascular and interstitial spaces and smaller cell volumes than immersion-fixed CL. Capillary surface area varied significantly between the four groups in accordance with absolute volume of vascular space. Estimated numbers of endothelial cells and amounts of connective tissue differed significantly, presumably due to difficulties in identifying these components in immersion-fixed CL with collapsed vessels. The fixation methods used caused substantial fluid shifts between the three major compartments. A theoretical approach for considering these shifts and the likely physiologic situation was developed.

    Induction of both rat and mouse lactate dehydrogenase in hybrids between inducible rat glioma and uninducible mouse neuroblastoma cells (1980)

    Notes: The specific activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH; EC 1.1.1.27) is induced two-fold by l-norepinephrine (NE) in C6TK- rat glioma cells, but not in NA mouse neuroblastoma cells or various other nonglial cells. Previous reports have shown that the induction is mediated by cyclic AMP (cAMP) and possibly protein phosphorylation, and that it requires RNA and protein synthesis. To study the block to LDH induction in nonglial cells, we hybridized C6TK- cells with NA cells and isolated a hybrid clone in which LDH is inducible by NE. Mouse and rat LDH from hybrid cells were separated by electrophoresis and quantitated by two independent methods, and it was found that mouse and rat LDH were induced equally when cells were exposed to NE. The results suggest that inducibility of LDH is not determined by a cis-acting control at the gene level, but rather by the presence or absence of an earlier component in the cAMP-mediated induction system, and that the induction system acts indiscriminately on all active LDH gene copies in the cell.

    Notes: Previous studies have shown that cytosolic glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH; EC 1.1.1.8) can be induced by glucocorticoids in mammalian brain, mammary gland, and thymus, but it was thought that no induction occurred in liver. We report here that GPDH is induced by glucocorticoids in several lines of hepatoma cells and in rat hepatocytes cultured in vitro. When rat hepatoma cells of clone FU5AH were exposed to 3 μM hydrocortisone (HC) for 3 days, GPDH specific activity increased greater than sixfold over control. The rate and extent of induction were similar in exponentially growing and stationary-phase cultures of cells. Four other hepatoma cell lines were inducible to a lesser extent, and three lines were not inducible. GPDH was also induced by glucocorticoids in cultures of hepatocytes isolated from livers of 6-day-old rats. The enzyme was induced threeto fourfold by the synthetic glucocorticoid, dexamethasone, in the presence of 1 nM insulin, but the induction was not observed in the absence of insulin.

    Notes: Die von Hantzsch vor nahezu hundert Jahren synthetisierten Aryldihydropyridine erwiesen sich in jüngerer Zeit als hochwirksame und gut verträgliche Calcium-Antagonisten. Paradebeispiel ist der bereits therapeutisch angewandte 1,4-Dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-4-(o-nitrophenyl)pyridin-3,5-dicarbonsäure-dimethylester (Nifedipine). Dieser Stoff setzt die Anfallshäufigkeit bei Angina pectoris herab und senkt den Blutdruck. Die Entdeckung der therapeutischen Wirksamkeit dieser Stoffklasse initiierte erneute Untersuchungen der Hantzsch-Kondensation sowie die Synthese zahlreicher 4-Aryldihydropyridine und verwandter Verbindungen. Aus ihren biologischen Daten lassen sich qualitative und quantitative Struktur-Wirkungs-Beziehungen ableiten.
