    Notes: Summary Ultrastructural studies of secretory granules of rat antral G-cells and measurement of serum gastrin level were performed under the condition of fasting and administration of alkaline solution into the stomach. On electron micrographs, no qualitative difference was observed among those experimental groups. However, morphometrical analysis revealed significant quantitative differences. The population density of secretory granules of the rats treated once with alkali first increased and then decreased reaching that of the fasted group, while that of the repeatedly treated group remained nearly equal to the maximum value. The average sectioned surface area of secretory granules tended to decrease for 1.5h after the stimulation but the difference was not significant among those groups. From the results obtained at present, responding to chemical stimulation such as pH changes in the antrum, it seems probable that not only exocytosis but also migration of secretory granules from supra- and/or para-nuclear portion to the basal portion of the cell occurs rapidly in G-cells and that both these processes are inhibited immediately by antral acidification. Moreover, the present results apparently indicate that under the condition of no antral acidification G-cells have a capacity of secreting gastrin for a fairly long time, such as 4–8 h, responding to adequate stimulus. These findings are strongly suggestive of the existence of a capacious pool of granules in the supra- and/or para-nuclear cytoplasm or of fairly speedy production of secretory granules in the Golgi area.

    Notes: Three types of functional microgels with vinyl groups on their surface were prepared. For the first type, the counter anion from clorin was exchanged with β-methacryloylethyl sulfonic acid, styrene sulfonic acid or allyl sulfonic acid in a microgel with ammonium anions. For the second and third types, a quaternization with N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate of 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate in the presence of microgel particles was prepared by emulsion copolymerization of styrene, chloromethylstyrene or N,N-dimethylamino-methylbenzene, and divinylbenzene. The resulting samples show good dispersibility in organic solvents without an emulsifier.A functional microgel-based photopolymer combined with an acrylate monomer and ultraviolet (UV) or visible (VIS) light-absorbing photoinitiators provides oleophilic images when exposed to UV or VIS light and developed in tap water. This photopolymer has a higher sensitivity than those of photopolymers based on microgels with an analogous composition but without vinyl groups. Photopolymers pepared by using functional microgels with a methacryloyl group exhibited a higher rate of polymerization (Rp) than that of photopolymers based on microgels without a vinyl group. The Rp of photopolymers prepared by using a functional microgel with either an allyl group or vinylphenyl group was nearly equal to that of photopolymers based on microgels with ammonium ions. Their high sensitivities are attributed to the rapid photopolymerization in the methacryloyl group.To determine how the photoreaction mechanism enhances sensitivity, the photoreaction products were investigated using a model photopolymerization system. It was found that the gelation reactions enhancing sensitivity are predominantly the polymerization and crosslinking ones when a microgel with the methacryloyl group is used, and the graft copolymerization with acrylate monomers when a microgel with either the allyl group or vinylphenyl group is used.
