    Notes: Abstract Rats with bilaterally implanted lateral hypothalamic electrodes were tested daily for self-stimulation to each side of the brain, and rotation (circling behavior) was recorded concomitantly. All rats rotated in a preferred direction regardless of the side of the brain stimulated and all rats had asymmetries in self-stimulation sensitivity related to the direction of rotation. Morphine increased rotation and lowered self-stimulation thresholds at low doses (e.g., 2.5 mg/kg) and decreased rotation and raised self-stimulation thresholds at high doses (e.g., 20.0 mg/kg). The changes in self-stimulation thresholds preferentially occurred on opposite sides of the brain, i.e., the low-dose decrease in thresholds was greater in the normally less sensitive side of the brain whereas the high-dose increase in thresholds was greater in the normally more sensitive side of the brain. Naloxone produced no changes in rates of rotation but did elicit small changes in self-stimulation that varied with the side of the brain, i.e., dose-related decreases in thresholds occurred in the normally more sensitive side of the brain whereas dose-related increases in thresholds occurred in the normally less sensitive side of the brain. Subsequently rats were tested in a choice procedure providing concurrent access to rewarding stimulation of either side of the brain; currents were titrated such that, under baseline conditions, rats continually alternated between self-stimulating one side of the brain or the other. Morphine induced a preference for the less sensitive side of the brain that was comparable in magnitude at all doses and independent of its biphasic effects on rates of responding. Naloxone induced a dose-related preference for the more sensitive side of the brain while not altering rates of responding. Naloxone (1.0 mg/kg) also completely antagonized the effects of all doses of morphine. The results are discussed in terms of lateralized actions mediating the discriminable effects of reinforcing drugs.

    The perineurium of the adult housefly: Ultrastructure and permeability to lanthanum (1981)

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructure of the perineurial cells of Musca overlying the first optic neuropile was examined by transmission electron microscopy. These cells are somewhat similar to those of other insects but cytoplasmic flanges seem to be absent, and mitochondria are relatively large and sinuous. The intercellular channel system on the lateral border of the cells is relatively spacious and highly meandering. Perineurial cells are joined by septate, gap, and tight junctions, hemidesmosomes, and desmosomes. Tight and septate junctions bond perineurial cells and glial cells. These data are evaluated on the basis of tracer studies with lanthanum. This material penetrates the extracellular space between perineurium and underlying glial and nerve cells, between epithelial glial cells and retinular axon terminals (capitate projections), and between the α-β fiber pair in the optic cartridge (gnarls). If no damage occurs to the perineurial cells during tissue preparation, this passage of lanthanum to neuronal surfaces indicates that the blood brain barrier is incomplete in this restricted area. Supportive evidence for such permeance is based on electrophysiological data, considerations of membrane specializations in the optic neuropile, and Na+/K+ ratios of dipteran hemolymph.

    Mechanism of the hydroxyiodination of 2-butenoic acid (1982)

    Notes: Aqueous iodination of trans-2-butenoic acid proceeds via hydrolysis of I2 to form HOI and I-, then rapid addition of HOI across the double bond to form the iodohydrin product. In the presence of iodate to keep iodide concentration low, the reaction proceeds at a conveniently measurable rate. The rate for the addition reaction \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ {\rm HOI + CH}_{\rm 3} {\rm CH=\!=CHCOOH} \to {\rm CH}_{\rm 3} {\rm CH(OH)CHICOOH}$$ \end{document} is -d[C4H6O2]/dt = 5900 [H+][C4H6O2][HOI]M/s at 25.0°C when [IO3-] = 0.025M and ionic strength = 0.3. The overall rate law in the presence of iodate is \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ -d[{\rm I}_{\rm 2}]/dt = 3.2 \times 10^{ - 3} \times 10^{ - 3} [{\rm H}^{\rm + }][{\rm IO}_{\rm 3}^ -]^{0.65} [{\rm C}_{\rm 4} {\rm H}_{\rm 6} {\rm O}_{\rm 2}]^{1/2} [{\rm I}_{\rm 2}]^{1/2} M/{\rm s}$$ \end{document} where [H+] and [IO3-] are total concentrations used to prepare the solution.
