    Notes: Abstract Squirrel monkeys were presented with two stimuli in alternation, separated by time out periods during which neither was present. One was white noise accompanied by irregularly spaced pulses of shock, the other continuous shock at a lower intensity. Following an interval of time which varied in an unpredictable sequence, the next depression of the response lever turned the stimulus off. The schedule on which termination was possible was identical for the two stimuli, and the intensity of the continuous shock was adjusted to a level that produced approximately equal frequencies of pressing, typically from 40 to 80 responses per minute. Doses of chlordiazepoxide ranging from 2.5 to 10.0 mg/kg, i.p., produced a significantly greater decrease in the rate of response in the presence of the continuous shock than in the presence of the noise. On the other hand, doses of chlorpromazine ranging from 0.25 to 1.0 mg/kg, i.p., produced no differential effect. Previous findings of selective action on behavior that terminates signals paired with shock (avoidance) may be related to differences in experimental contingencies or in the pre-drug strength of the two performances compared, rather than to the effect of chlorpromazine on an experimental analogue of human anxiety.

    Notes: The cloacal sacs of Leptotyphlops dulcis are nonglandular, posterior evaginations of the cloaca. The median cloacal gland is tubuloalveolar. Similar unpaired cloacal glands as well as paired sacs are noted in certain colubrid snakes. Terminology applied to these cloacal derivatives is discussed, and a standardization of names is provided.

    Notes: Horseradish peroxidase was injected into the spleens of mice and the animals were sacrificed ten minutes after injection. The tissues were reacted with 3-3′ diaminobenzidine hydrochloride and the distribution of the reaction product was studied with both the light and electron microscope. The peroxidase was localized between epithelial cells up to the region of the tight junction and within vacuoles in the absorptive cells Granules ranging in size from ca. 40A to 600A were observed in the cytoplasm of epithelial cells in numbers far in excess of that found in control specimens. It appeared that the diffuse light brown staining observed in epithelial cells with the light microscope could be attributed to large numbers of granules of reaction product free in the cytoplasm. When corn oil was given by stomach tube and an intravascular injection of perioxidase was given ten minutes later, absorbed lipid was found to pass from interepithelial cell spaces to lamina propria at the same time that peroxidase was traversing the same compartments in the reverse direction. Hence, it was shown that exogenous peroxidase and probably other substances of vascular origin required for the metabolism of epithelial cells are exposed to both the basal and lateral epithelial cell membranes, even when absorbed lipid is traversing the same spaces in the opposite direction.

    Notes: Normal development of the urostyle is described during late stages of metamorphosis in five species of anurans: Xenopus laevis (Daudin), Bufo americanus Holbrook, Pseudacris triseriata (Wied), Hyla chrysoscelis Cope, and Rana pipiens Schreber. The developing urostyle of all five species is composed of essentially the same cartilaginous elements: one pair of basidorsals above the notochord and the subtended hypochord. Among the five species there is variation in such details as the number of spinal nerve foramina and the degree of fusion of the basidorsals; however, both the hypochord and basidorsals are very similar in all five genera examined. Consideration of the literature suggests that contradictory descriptions of the developing urostyle result from (1) varied methods of study (alizarin-staining of whole specimens or serial cross-sections), (2) the variety of species examined, and (3) the particular stage of development of the tadpole described by an investigator.

    Notes: Growth sites within the cartilaginous nasal septa of four different species of animals (5-day-old rats, rabbits, guinea pigs and beagles) were identified by monitoring cellular proliferation radioautographically. A statistical analysis (MANOVA) was employed. It showed that, of the six combinations compared (rat-beagle, rat-guinea pig, rat-rabbit, beagle-guinea pig, beagle-rabbit, and guinea pig-rabbit), in only one (beagle-guinea pig) was there any similarity in growth pattern. The other five combinations all were significantly different. Since no particular areas emerged, with any consistency, as common growth sites within any of the four kinds of septa, it was concluded that the nasal septum might well play a passive role in midfacial growth, rather than an active role as previously thought.

    Notes: Growth sites within the newborn cartilaginous nasal septum have been identified by monitoring chondrocytic proliferation radioautographically. Tritiated thymidine was the labeling agent used. The results were tabulated and charted graphically; they showed the overall septum to be relatively active mitotically, yielding an average of 3.54 labeled cells per microscopic field counted. However, certain areas showed greater activity than others, namely the anterior tip (4.51 labeled cells/field), the midportion (3.98 labeled cells/field) and the posterior section of the presphenoidal tail (4.24 labeled cells/field).

    Notes: Macrophages and cells of the plasmocyte series were studied in the rat's spleen during the primary and secondary immune responses to particulate antigen. Evidence is presented to suggest that the plasma cell precursors are located in the marginal zones surrounding the lymphoid nodules and that less than one day following injection of antigen, these cells migrate into the nodules, where mitosis and subsequent differentiation into hemocytoblasts occurs in the presence of nodular macrophages. The hemocytoblasts then migrate across the marginal zone into the red pulp where differentiation into mature plasma cells occurs in the presence of red pulp macrophages. It is suggested that the initiation of the antibody-forming process occurs in the lymphoid nodules where marginal zone cells come into close contact with the marginal metalophils or with germinal center macrophages. The process initiating the migration of cells from the marginal zone to the nodules is unknown.

    Notes: Spleens from neonatally thymectomized and nonthymectomized young rats were studied histologically and histochemically to elucidate the development of the splenic immune system with and without thymus.In intact animals primitive germinal center activity could be elicited with antigen as early as 13 days of age. More definitive germinal centers lacking tingible body macrophages were observed at 18 days of age. Germinal centers containing tingible body macrophages did not develop until 35 days of age in response to antigenic stimulation. This coincided with maximal development of the marginal zone of medium-sized lymphocytes and the mature development of nodular macrophages possessing strong acid phosphatase activity.Neonatally thymectomized rats developed marginal zones and germinal centers similar to control littermates when the young animals were maintained on tetracycline. Thymectomized animals not given tetracycline showed disturbances in splenic development. These are discussed.The results suggest that the thymus may be critical to the immune system in rats from birth to about 30 days of age but is not essential to its function beyond this period. Marginal zone lymphocytes and germinal center cells proliferate normally and mature to the plasma cell stage in the absence of a thymus if the animals are maintained on tetracycline beyond this critical age.

    Notes: Immunocytochemical staining after controlled proteolytic treatment of the sections with pronase revealed widespread distribution of neuronal cell bodies with somatostatin- like immunoreactivity (SLI) in the rat forebrain. SLI-positive neurons were found in regions of the neocortex, the pyriform cortex, the cingulate cortex, the striatum, the olfactory tract and tubercle, the nucleus accumbens, the septum, and the hypothalamus. These results are consistent with previous radioimmunoassay findings and suggest the presence of large somatostatin-like (possibly precursor) molecules in the neurons stained for SLI after pronase treatment.

    Notes: The purpose of this investigation was to study the effects of various hormones on the surface morphology of 20-day-old rat testicular cells in culture. Aggregates containing primarily Sertoli cells and germinal cells were obtained by enzymatic digestion. The surface morphology of the cells composing these aggregates was characterized under various culture conditions using light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The cytoplasmic processes of Sertoli cells became highly branched and filamentous after being cultured in the presence of rat, human or ovine FSH. Identical branching and filamentation was observed when Sertoli cells were cultured in rat TSH. Finally, numerous large blebs were observed on the surfaces of germinal cells cultured in the presence of insulin.These results suggest that the branching and filamentation of Sertoli cell cytoplasm observed after FSH stimulation are not specific for that hormone.
