    Notes: Abstract This report deals with an ultrastructural investigation of the synapses of anterior horn neurons in the lumbar spinal cords of five patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) who had mild neuronal depletion. Specimens from five age-matched, neurologically normal individuals served as controls. In each instance, the autopsy was performed within 3 h after death. A statistically significant decrease in cell body area, number of synapses and total synaptic length was found in the normal-appearing neurons of the ALS patients. The alterations were more pronounced in neurons with central chromatolysis. However, despite an approximately 20  % reduction in the number of synapses, the length of the active synaptic zone of the normal-appearing neurons in the ALS patients was not diminished. This observation may be accounted for by a plasticity to the loss of synapses which maintained the active zone of the remaining synapses to increase synaptic efficiency. It is suggested that when the plasticity of the active zone reaches its limit, the continuing loss of synapses may lead to functional impairment. The capacity of the active synaptic zone to respond to progressive denervation of the anterior horn neurons may preserve motor function or slow the development of motor deficits in the early stage of degeneration of the lower motor neurons.

    Synaptic loss in anterior horn neurons in lower motor neuron disease (1996)

    Notes: Abstract This report concerns an ultrastructural investigation of the synapses of anterior horn neurons in the lumbar spinal cord of four patients with lower motor neuron disease (LMND) who had no upper motor neuron and corticospinal tract involvement. Anterior horn neurons of five normal individuals served as controls. The cell body area and the number of synapses of the normal-appearing neurons of the LMND patients were significantly reduced (P 〈 0.0001). These findings suggest that synaptic changes of anterior horn neurons could be ascribed to the degeneration of lower motor neurons rather than to the influence of upper motor neuron system degeneration. On the other hand, the lengths of individual synapses (P 〈 0.0001) and of their active zones (P 〈 0.05) were significantly increased in the patients. These increases would indicate that synapses on anterior horn neurons of individuals with LMND appear to have the capacity to react to progressive degeneration and loss of other synapses by means of a compensatory response or plasticity that enhances their efficiency.

    Notes: A series of new polyimides containing fluorinated alkoxy side chains are prepared from novel fluorinated alkoxy diamines. The dieletric constant at 1 kHz in the fluorinated polyimides decreases from 3.3 to 2.6 as fluorine content increases. The refractive index also changes from 1.58 to 1.48, dependent on the fluorine content. In addition, the fluorinated polyimides exhibit lower water absorption than the reference polyimides prepared from m-phenylenediamine.

    A kinetic study of vinyl acetate polymerization in aqueous media in the absence of emulsifier (1978)

    Notes: In the absence of emulsifying agents, vinyl acetate polymerization in aqueous media was carried out at 50°C over a wide range of initial initiator and monomer concentrations to clarify the effect of reaction conditions on the kinetic behavior of the polymerization system. It was shown that the rate of polymerization was proportional to reaction time and initiator concentration and independent of the number of polymer particles present. The rate could also be successfully explained by the Smith and Ewart theory for emulsion polymerization when the dissolved monomer in water and the Trommsdorff effect were taken into consideration. A set of equations which could account for the effect of dissolved monomer in water on the rate of polymerization is proposed.

    Compatibility and mesophase separation in blends of α-helical polyglutamates (1988)

    Notes: Blends composed of the α-helical polymers, poly-L-glutamates [(—NHCαHRC′O—)n, R = —CH2CH2COO—(CH2)m(C6H5] (Lm) and the corresponding D enantiomers (Dm), have been studied by x-ray diffraction and viscoelastic measurements. Binary blends of L2, D2, L3, and D3 are compatible and form isomorphous mixed crystals at all compositions, whereas other pairs, with the exception of L1/D1, are incompatible. The demixing process is described for a ternary system consisting of L1, D3, and a diluent chloroform at 40°C. The phase diagram comprises four regions, I, IA, A, and AA, with increasing polymer concentration; I: isotropic, A: anisotropic, IA: I-A biphasic, and AA: A-A biphasic. The IA biphasic gap is greater in the ternary system than in the binary ones. The high-molecular-weight component (D3) is partitioned into the A phase in the IA region. The AA separation originates from incompatibility of the polymers. The phase behavior is discussed on the basis of the Abe-Flory theory by incorporating the polymer-polymer interaction parameter.
