    Notes: Abstract A rare (arteriolo-)capillomedullary venous anomaly of the cerebellum was examined with CT, MRI, and angiography. Unlike the usual venous angioma, this case had such extraordinary features as: infratentorial location, involvement of the whole left cerebellum, an arteriolocapillary component and a history of progressive vomiting and chronic constipation in a 7-year-old boy. CT and MRI were consistent with an extensive vascular malformation, but the actual diagnosis was reached by angiography.

    Notes: Abstract The present study examines the time dependent effects of n-6 and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on liver microsomal lipid metabolism in FVB mice fed a diet supplemented with a mixture of free fatty acids (mainly 18:3n-6 and 20:5n-3) at 25 mg/g diet. Significant changes in the fatty acid composition of total liver and microsomal lipids were observed after 7 days on the diets. Thereafter, some animals remained on the same diet while others were fed a diet supplemented with hydrogenated coconut oil (HCO). With the exception of 20:5n-3 which showed a slower recovery, establishment of the HCO pattern was rapid indicating that the diet-induced changes could be easily reversed. The unsaturation index, the cholesterol/phospholipid ratio and the microviscosity of the microsomal membranes were not affected by these dietary manipulations. Unsaturated fatty acid supplementation reduced the activity of Δ9 desaturase by 50%. Feeding the HCO diet to mice previously fed the EPA/GLA diet led to a progressive increase in Δ9 desaturase activity, reaching 80% of the day zero values after 14 days. The monoene content of hepatic total lipids reflected, in most cases, the changes in enzyme activity. This study shows that a low dose of a n-3 and n-6 free fatty acid mixture increases the quantities of members of the n-3 family, without loss of n-6 fatty acids in microsomal membranes and modifies the activity of Δ9 desaturase without altering the microsome physicochemical parameters.

    Notes: Abstract Effects of supplementation of saturated fatty acids (16:0 and 18:0) on metabolism of the cytotoxic n-6 fatty acids in cultured human monocyte-like cells (U937) have been examined. U937 cells were incubated in 5% delipidated fetal bovine serum containing 16:0 and 18:0. Supplementation of either 16:0 or 18:0 has no significant effect on the uptake of 18:2n-6 and 18:3n-6. However, addition of 16:0 to the medium increased whereas 18:0 suppressed the cytotoxic effects of 18:2n-6 and 18:3n-6. In addition, 16:0 supplementation reduced the incorporation of n-6 fatty acids in cellular phospholipid fraction, and enhanced the metabolism of n-6 fatty acids, particularly the conversion of 20:3n-6 to 20: 4n-6 in U937 cells. Results with microsomes prepared from U937 cells also showed that 16:0 supplementation increased the Δ5 desaturase activity. This may be related in part to an increase in the availability of 20:3n-6, since results obtained in a separate study have shown that 16:0 competed with 20:3n-6 for incorporaton into the phospholipid molecule at sn-2 position. Increasing the availability and formation of long chain n-6 fatty acids, which are cytotoxic, might also be responsible for increasing cytotoxicity of 16:0 supplementation.

    Notes: The macromolecular cholesteric structure in the ethyl-cyanoethyl cellulose [(E-CE)C]/acrylic acid [AA] cholesteric liquid crystalline solutions is studied by directly observing the morphology and structure of the ethyl-cyanoethyl cellulose [(E-CE)C]/polyacrylic acid [PAA] using electron microscopy. A periodical lamellar structure is observed in ultrathin slices of the composites with cholesteric order by both transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and low-voltage scanning electron microscopy (LVSEM). It is suggested that the periodical lamellar structure is induced by the twist of the molecular orientation in the cholesteric phase and reflects the structural features of the macromolecular cholesteric phase. The macromolecular cholesteric phase exhibits the twisted ring morphology in the initial stage of the formation of the liquid crystalline phase. The swelling of the ultrathin slices with cholesteric order in water is heterogeneous, which suggests the tight packing of the (E-CE)C chains in the direction of the helix axis in the macromolecular cholesteric phase. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The formation, textures, and optic characteristics of the ethyl-cyanoethyl cellulose [(E-CE)C]/acrylic acid (AA) mesophase were studied using polarizing microscopy, spectro-photometry, and small-angle light scattering (SALS). The disklike, oily streak, planar, pseudoisotropic, polygonal textures and the texture of domains gathered randomly were observed in the mesophase. The polygonal texture in unitary mesomorphic solutions can be regarded as the texture from the combination of deformed mesophase aggregates with the disclike texture. The mesomorphic solution exhibits vivid colors when the concentration is about 42-52 wt % because of its selective reflection to visible light. The wavelength of the light that is selectively reflected shifts to the shorter wavelength, with increasing concentration. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Ethyl-cyanoethyl cellulose [(E-CE)C]/cross-linked polystyrene (PS) composites were prepared via polymerization of styrene in (E-CE)C/styrene solution with glycol diacrylate as a cross-linking reagent. The polymerization of the solution, morphology, and miscibility of (E-CE)C/PS composites were studied with polarizing microscopy, small-angle light scattering (SALS), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It was found that the mixing state of the (E-CE)C/PS system and the thermal stability of composites were modified by cross-linking of PS. In the intensively cross-linked composite prepared from the anisotropic solution, there existed cylindrical domains in which (E-CE)C spherulites were dispersed in PS. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Thermotropic behavior of hydroxyethyl celloulose acetate (HECA) was studied by polarizing microscopy, DSC, and X-ray diffraction. It was found that HECA was an anisotropic liquid between the temperature from 130 to 185°C on heating, and when the temperature was over 185°C, it became isotropic. In cooling, however, mesophase began to form at about 165°C. The transformation temperature decreased with decreasing molecular weight and the temperature region of transformation decreased with decreasing the distribution of the molecular weight for HECA. The kinetic ability of tranformation appeared the maximum with molecular weight. The HECA liquid crystal is cholesteric and the distance between layers of ordered molecular chains was enlarged when HECA was transformed from liquid crystalline glass to the liquid crystalline state. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Two technical methods were developed for transcrystalline growth in order to create perfect transcrystalline growth for both thermoplastics and liquid crystalline polymers. A principle was suggested for oriented crystallization that the nucleation is created with high density along a one-dimensional or on a two-dimensional unit, while the nucleation in the matrix is suppressed. The steric hindrance was a key factor to create the transcrystalline growth in isothermal crystallization. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Three series of polyurethane adhesives - polyethyleneadipateurethane (PEAU), polybuthyleneadipateurethane (PBAU), and polyhexyleneadipateurethane (PHAU) - with the same MW and hard/soft segment ratio, based on the three polyesters polyethyleneadipate (PEA), polybuthyleneadipate (PBA), polyhexyleneadipate (PHA), with 4,4′-diphnylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), and butendiol were synthesized by solution polymerization. The crystallinity of these polyesters and polyurethanes (PUs) and the compatibility of blends of PUs with PVC were studied by means of wide-angle x-ray diffraction (WAXD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic thermomechanical analysis (DMA), testing of solubility, and phase contrast microscopy. The results indicated that PBAU/PVC and PHAU/PVC were compatible systems, but PEAU/PVC was incompatible. The adhesive strengths of the three adhesives were quite different from one another, in the order of PBAU ≥ PHAU ≫ PEAU. The influences of crystallinity and compatibility on adhesion were discussed, and the Diffusion Theory for PU-PVC systems was recommended. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
