    Notes: Abstract Differentiation of adipogenic precursor cells into mature adipocytes is a complex phenomenon, characterized by an ordered expression of adipocyte-specific genes, triggered by a set of interacting transcription factors. The most important transcription factors involved in this process are the γ form of peroxisome proliferator activated receptors (PPARγ) and the various members of the CCAAT enhancer binding proteins (α, β, and δ). In addition to PPARγ and these enhancer binding proteins, several other transcription factors, including ADD-1 (SRE-BP), HMGI-C, are involved in regulating this process. Altered activity and/or expression of these transcription factors, will induce the expression of target genes in the differentiating cells, ultimately resulting in the phenotypical characteristics of the adipocytes. It is speculated that modulation of these transcription factors by either pharmacological or dietary manipulations might influence adipocyte differentiation and prove beneficial in the prevention and treatment of obesity.

    Observations on the early development of ascending spinal pathways (1983)

    Notes: Summary The development of ascending spinal pathways has been studied in the North American opossum using degeneration methods and the retrograde transport of horseradish peroxidase. Axons from caudal thoracic and/or lumbosacral levels of the spinal cord reach the lateral reticular nucleus, the inferior olivary complex, the reticular formation of the medulla and pons as well as the cerebellum very early in development. Innervation of the nucleus gracilis occurs somewhat later. Spinal axons grow into most of the caudal brain stem areas they occupy in the adult animal, including the nucleus gracilis, before there is convincing evidence that they reach the thalamus. Although spinal axons enter the cerebellum early in development their adult distribution with its characteristic discontinuities appears relatively late.

    The direct spinal area of the inferior olivary nucleus: An electron microscopic study (1975)

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary Identification of the direct spinal areas (portions of the dorsal and medial accessory nuclei) within the opossum inferior olivary complex was accomplished by mapping the location of the terminal degeneration by the Fink-Heimer technique subsequent to cervical cord lesions. Following similar lesions, sampling of these same regions for electron microscopic study was assured by examination of transversely oriented, 1 μ plastic sections prior to thin sectioning. The first evidence of electron dense axon terminals was found at a survival time of 24 hours. At survival times of 36, 48 and 72 hours, degenerating presynaptic profiles shrink, become irregular in shape and are totally or partially surrounded by glial processes. Spinal terminals average 1–2 μ in their greatest dimension, contain round, clear synaptic vesicles and generally contact small diameter (0.4–1.8 μ) dendritic shafts or occasional spiny appendages. The spiny dendritic appendages make up the central core of the olivary glomeruli and these juxtaposed dendritic processes exhibit gap junctions. At longer survival times (5, 7 and 9 days) many presynaptic profiles with either round or pleomorphic synaptic vesicles remain normal in appearance and contact dendritic shafts or the spiny appendages within glomeruli. Afferents from other sources (possibly including intrinsic neurons) must terminate within the direct spinal portion of the nuclear complex to account for the numerous axon terminals which retain normal morphology after such long survival times.

    Cerebello-olivary fibers: Their origin, course and distribution in the North American opossum (1976)

    ISSN: 1432-1106
    Keywords: Inferior olive ; Cerebellum ; Opossum

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary Although degeneration techniques suggest that cerebello-olivary fibers are limited in their origin and distribution, horseradish peroxidase and autoradiographic experiments make it clear that they arise within all cerebellar nuclei and project to most, if not all, areas of the contralateral inferior olive. Autoradiographic preparations show that cerebello-olivary fibers are highly ordered and suggest that the dentate nucleus projects primarily to the principal olive, the interpositus anterior relays particularly heavy to the dorsal accessory nucleus and the interpositus posterior distributes extensively to the medial accessory complex. Evidence for a small projection from the fastigial nucleus to the caudal medial accessory nucleus is also available. However, it appears clear that neither the dentate nor the interpositus nuclei project to just one subdivision of the olive. For example, although dentate fibers end extensively within the principal nucleus some of them also distribute to portions of the medial accessory nucleus and perhaps the dorsal accessory nucleus as well. The medial accessory olive is particularly complex and at rostral levels receives input from both interposed and dentate nuclei, whereas more caudally it receives a projection from the fastigial nucleus. Olivary fibers from both the interposed and dentate nuclei traverse the brachium conjunctivum descendons and distribute primarily to the rostral 2/3 to 3/4 of the olive, whereas those from fastigial neurons take a different route and end more caudally. Experiments utilizing horseradish peroxidase as a retrograde tracer suggest that cerebello-olivary fibers from both the interpositus anterior and dentate nuclei take origin from a population of generally small neurons.

    The synaptic organization of the cerebello-oiivary circuit (1976)

    Notes: Summary Section of the superior cerebellar peduncle just rostral to the deep cerebellar nuclei results in degenerating axon terminals within the contralateral inferior olive. The nuclear origin of this fiber system and its distribution within the subdivisions of the inferior olive were described in a companion study (Martin et al., 1976). Precise localization of these degenerating terminals within the nucleus was accomplished by the examination of 1 μ plastic sections cut from each tissue block prior to thin sectioning. Degenerating axon terminals are present in all the nuclear subdivisions and when seen with the electron microscope they frequently are localized in the previously described synaptic clusters (King, 1976). These terminals demonstrate an electron dense reaction at survival times of 2 and 3 days. By day 4, they are shrunken and irregular in shape, and typically are surrounded by astrocyte processes. Cerebello-olivary axon terminals measure 1–3 μ, contain spherical, clear synaptic vesicles and typically contact spiny appendages within the synaptic clusters (glomeruli). Thus, we have demonstrated that one of the primary axon systems which terminates within the synaptic clusters is from the cerebellar nuclei. We have yet to determine the origins of the remaining terminals within the synaptic clusters which include endings with either smaller spherical, pleomorphic or numerous dense core vesicles.

    Notes: 2-(Dimethylamino)oxazoline-4-carboxylic acids 5 were prepared by condensation of binucleophilic amino acids 4and O-ethyl-N,N-dimethylisourea 3. New heterocyclic N-acetylglucosaminyl amides and chitobiosyl amides 8 were obtained by the coupling of tetraacetylglucosamine 6a or heptaacetylchitobiosylamine 6b with acid chlorides of heterocyclic carboxylic acids 2 or 5a and subsequent deacetylation. Based on their substitution patterns, compounds 8were expected to have inhibitory activity towards chitinases. Enzyme assays showed that glycosyl amides 8 indeed were moderate inhibitors of chitinases, the diacetylchitobiosyl amides 8d-f generally having higher inhibitory activities than the N-acetylglucosaminyl amide derivatives 8a-c. Inhibitory activities depended on the chitinase tested.

    Notes: Chinone und Vorstufen, die oxidativ in Chinone und/oder Chinonmethide umgewandelt werden können, sind in der Natur weit verbreitet. Als sekundäre Naturstoffe wirken sie häufig antibiotisch, cytotoxisch, aber auch pathogen, und eine Reihe von Pflanzen und Tieren benutzt chinoide Substanzen als Abwehrstoffe, oft mit spektakulärem Erfolg. Auf makromolekularer Ebene spielen Chinonmethide im Pflanzenreich eine Schlüsselrolle bei der Biosynthese von Lignin, während die Bildung von Melanoproteinen ein Beispiel für Reaktionen von o-Chinonen im Tierreich ist. Bei den Insekten dienen Chinone und Chinonmethide zur Bildung des lebensnotwendigen Exoskeletts. Die Reaktivität von Chinonen in biologischen Systemen hat auch für den Menschen unmittelbare Bedeutung in pharmazeutischer, toxikologischer und technologischer Hinsicht. Den Beispielen in diesem Aufsatz liegt ein gemeinsames Prinzip zugrunde, nämlich die chemische Modifikation von Biopolymeren durch Chinone und Chinonmethide. Wie sich besonders bei einer detaillierteren Betrachtung der Reaktionen zeigt, die zur Sklerotisierung der Insektencuticula führen, sind in den letzten Jahren wichtige neue Erkenntnisse hinzugekommen, die vor allem durch die modernen Methoden der Stofftrennung und der Festkörper-NMR-Spektroskopie ermöglicht worden sind.
