    Notes: Summary Ultrastructural changes in the pars intermedia of the mouse pituitary caused by dietary sodium deprivation were investigated quantitatively. Of the six classes of organelles and inclusions selected for analysis in the pars intermedia cells, only the mitochondria showed no significant changes, while all of the remaining classes showed statistically significant changes. The most conspicuous changes were an abrupt decrease in the number of secretory granules and the appearance of parallel arrays of rough endoplasmic reticulum. The Golgi apparatus also showed hypertrophy accompanied by newly formed granules. The number of vesicles increased temporarily and then decreased. These findings indicate that dietary sodium depletion, a stimulus to greater aldosterone secretion, causes significant changes in the pars intermedia cells within 3 days, and these signs of hyperfunction last up to 5 days. The present study suggests a possible new role of the pars intermedia in the regulation of aldosterone secretion in response to dietary sodium deprivation in the mouse.

    Notes: Summary Fine structural alterations were investigated in cells of the pars intermedia of the pituitary of mice treated for four weeks with (a) a sodium deficient diet, (b) a sodium deficient diet mixed with propranolol (renininhibitor), (c) a sodium deficient diet combined with propranolol and aminoglutethimide (corticosterone 18-hydroxylase inhibitor), and (d) a sodium deficient diet combined with propranolol, aminoglutethimide and dexamethasone. The number of secretory granules decreased from 5.0/μm2 in the normal control to 2.4/μm2 in all four experimental groups suggesting that the cells in treated groups had reached an equilibrium in the production and release of secretory granules during the chronic treatments. The number of immature Golgi granules per unit Golgi area was 0.91 in the control, while this value rose to 3.29 (3.62 fold of the control), 4.37 (4.8 fold), 4.94 (5.43 fold) and 5.16 (5.67 fold) respectively in the four experimental groups. In these groups a good correlation was observed between the number of immature granules and the percent volume of rough endoplasmic reticulum (r=0.985, p〈0.01). The present study suggests that the pars intermedia contains an unidentified pituitary factor (or factors) essential for aldosterone biosynthesis.

    Notes: The chemical reactivities of novel reactive antioxidants based on tetrazoles for carbon-carbon double bonds of liquid polybutadiene and their antioxidation activities toward isoprene rubber were evaluated. These antioxidants, i.e., 2-substituted phenyl-5-(3′,5′ -di-tert-butyl-4′-hydroxyphenyl)tetrazoles (PHPT), were pyrolyzed in liquid polybutadiene at 160-170°C for 30 min to attach to rubber in extents of 61-85% of the nitrileimines formed from PHPT by 1,3-dipolar addition reaction. The reactivities of PHPT followed the order p-Cl 〉 m-Cl 〉 H 〉 p-CH3 〉 m-CH3, p-OC2H5, suggesting that PHPT reacts with diene rubber in electrophilic reaction and p-derivatives exhibit higher contents of binding than m-derivatives due to steric hindrance. From oxygen absorption data, the antioxidation activities of PHPT for isoprene rubber vulcanizates followed the order m-Cl, m-CH3 〉 H, p-Cl, p-Cl, p-CH3 〉 p-OC2H5. Isoprene rubber vulcanizates, obtained after pretreatment with PHPT by heating, were extracted with acetone, followed by aging to show that there was good retention and appreciable antioxidation activities of PHPT, especially, p-CH3 and p-Cl substituted PHPT.

    Notes: The γ-ray-induced graft copolyinerization of cellulose and styrene by preirradiation was studied. (1) The graft copolymerization of cellulose and styrene was accelerated by immersing the cellulose in H202 solution during γ irradiation. The number of active sites such as hydroperoxides was estimated by the ferrous ion method. There is shown a correlation between the number of active sites and the rate of grafting. (2) The acetylation of the grafted cellulose-styrene polymer was carried out. The progress of the reaction was observed from the weight increase and infrared spectra measurement. The reaction proceeded very rapidly owing to the increased swelling of grafted polymer in the treating bath. (3) The acetylation of the cellulose-styrene polymer was next carried out under more severe conditions. In this case the ccllulose part of the grafted polymer was degraded by acetolysis and only the polystyrene was extracted from the grafted polymer. The viscosity-average molecular weight of the extracted polystyrene was estimated by viscometry and the degree of polymerization was calculated as 1.98 × l06. This value was compared with the number of the active sites estimated by the ferrous ion method.
