    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: Liver mitochondria from normal and alloxan diabetic rats, isolated in 0.25 M sucrose, were assayed with an oxygen electrode for ADP/O and Ca+2/O ratios, respiratory ratio, and respiratory control index. Mitochondria were incubated with two substrates, succinate and β-hydroxybutyrate; two types of ionic media, Na+ medium (Na+ the major monovalent cation) and K+ medium (K+ the major monovalent cation); and two respiratory stimulants, ADP (352 μM) and Ca+2 (187 μM). Significant differences between respiratory rates and ADP/O ratios were dependent upon the substrate and ionic medium employed. The results confirm previous studies which showed no alteration in ADP/O ratio but decreased State 3 respiratory rates under similar conditions of K+ medium with ADP stimulation in the diabetic. Furthermore, the State 3 respiration was prolonged compared to normal. Ca+2 stimulation was the same in normal and diabetic mitochondria in K+ medium. Studies in Na+ media revealed more significant differences in RCI's, respiratory rates, and ADP/O ratios that were substrate dependent as well as ion dependent. The results from these various studies can be accounted for by an hypothesis linking mitochondrial K+ interaction with alterations in the diabetic mitochondria.

    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: 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: 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.
