    Notes: Summary The effect of aconitine (10−5–10−6 g/ml) on membrane potentials and membrane currents of myelinated nerve fibres of Xenopus laevis was investigated. The following observations were made: a) Current clamp conditions: Slow depolarization (10–15 mV), decrease of amplitude and maximum rate of rise of action potential, finally inexcitability. With inward current pulses ‘hyperpolarizing responses’ could be elicited at membrane potentials more negative than the resting potential (E r ). Neither spontaneous activity nor repetitive responses to electrical stimuli were observed. No effects of aconitine were found in Na-free solutions or in the presence of tetrodotoxin. b) Voltage clamp conditions: Development of steady inward current at normal resting potential due to formation of a non-inactivating sodium permeability; heavily poisoned nodes therefore exhibit an N-shaped steady-state current voltage relation with negative slope at membrane potentials more negative thanE r . These non-inactivating sodium channels open more slowly than normal sodium channels, and can only be closed by hyperpolarizing the membrane by about 50 mV. The majority of sodium channels have almost normalτ m; theirm ∞ andh ∞-V relations are shifted by 10–15 mV towardsE r . It is concluded that these changes of the sodium permeability account for the changes of electrical activity observed after treatment with aconitine.

    Notes: Abstract White matter abnormalities on MRI have been observed in phenylketonuria (PKU) patients with late onset neurological symptoms as well as in neurologically inconspicious patients. We investigated 14 early treated adolescents at an age between 12 and 17 years (mean age 14.3 years) with classical PKU as well as one retarded patient with atypical PKU by cranial MRI with spinecho T1-, T2- and proton density sequences. Clinical examination was normal. Visual evoked potential (VEP) examination showed a prolonged latency of peak P100 (mean 122.6 ms; control mean 115.9) and IQ testing showed a mean IQ of 101.1. To investigate the influence of plasma phenylalanine (Phe) levels three approaches were used: Phe was determined for the day of MRI, for a period of 6 months prior to MRI and for lifetime up to 12 years. MRI scans revealed areas of abnormally increased signal intensity on T2-weighted and proton density images in 12 (86%) patients, preferably involving the parieto-occipital lobes. MRI of the patient with atypical PKU was normal. MRI findings correlated most strongly to long-term dietary control up to 12 years. We found no correlation with the other parameters of biochemical control, IQ or VEP latency. The nature and prognosis of MRI abnormalities in neurologically normal PKU patients remain unclear although abnormalities in VEPs which were not associated with the degree of MRI abnormalities in our sample indicate a disturbance in myelination along the visual pathways.

    Notes: Abstract The interdependence of the predicted in vitro residual enzyme activity (PRA), as deduced from the complete genotypes of 64 hyperphenylalaninaemic patients, and parameters for diagnosis of hyperphenylalaninaemic disorders, the fluctuation of the phyenlylalanine (Phe) values during treatment, long-term dietary control during treatment, and a parameter for the outcome of therapy (IQ) was investigated by correlation analysis. A highly significant correlation was found between the PRA and diagnostic parameters, as well as the fluctuation of the Phe values during treatment. Significant correlations were also observed between the parameter describing the fluctuation of the Phe values and the IQ, as well as between the quality of dietary control and IQ. The PRA is a valuable tool for the differential diagnosis of hyperphenylalaninaemic disorders and for the prediction of one aspect of the course of the disease which is related to the intellectual outcome of therapy. The quality of dietary control was independent of the genotype, indicating that the outcome of therapy can be successfully manipulated in spite of the genetic make-up.

    Notes: Abstract The intellectual status and professional careers of 51 young adults with phenylketonuria whose treatment started before 3 months of age are described. Their mean IQ was 97 (SD = 16). Of the IQs, 4% were more than 2 SD below the norm. The distribution of types of schooling of the patients was comparable to that in the German population. The professional careers of nearly all the patients were according to their educational level. Within the sample the outcome was significantly correlated with phenylalanine (Phe) control, even when the patients’ social background was statistically taken into account. The main influence of Phe on intelligence seems to occur during the first decade of life since IQ data remain stable even after Phe levels increased during adolescence.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung 1. Die Wirkung von Skorpiongift (10−6 g/ml) auf die Ionenströme einzelner markhaltiger Nervenfasern von Xenopus laevis wurde in voltage-clamp-Experimenten untersucht. 2. Skorpiongift beeinflußt sowohl die Natrium- als auch die Kalium-Permeabilität der Schnürringmembran. 3. Die hauptsächlichen Wirkungen des Skorpiongiftes auf die Natrium-PermeabilitätP Na sind: a) Die maximale Natrium-Permeabilität $$\bar P_{_{{\rm N}a} } $$ wird auf 60% ihres an der unvergifteten Membran gemessenen Wertes reduziert. b) Die Natriuminaktivierung wird stark verlangsamt und verläuft in zwei Phasen. c) Der zeitliche Verlauf vonP Na kann unter der Annahme beschrieben werden, daß die Variableh aus zwei Komponentenx undy besteht, deren Zeitkonstanten τ x und τ y 4 bzw. 200 mal so groß sind wie τ h der unvergifteten Membran. 4. Die Wirkungen des Skorpiongiftes auf die Kalium-PermeabilitätP K sind: a) Die maximale Kalium-PermeabilitätP K' wird auf etwa 35% ihres Normalwertes vermindert. b) Der Anstieg vonP K bei Depolarisation wird verlangsamt; zwei Phasen können unterschieden werden. 5. Die Wirkungen auf die Natrium-Inaktivierung und auf die Kalium-Permeabilität können die unter dem Einfluß von Skorpiongift beobachtete extreme Verlängerung des Aktionspotentials erklären.
    Notes: Summary 1. The action of scorpion venom (10−6 g/ml) on the ionic currents of single myelinated nerve fibres of Xenopus laevis was studied in voltage clamp experiments. 2. Scorpion venom was found to affect the sodium permeability as well as the potassium permeability of the nodal membrane. 3. The main effects of scorpion venom on the sodium permeabilityP Na are: a) The maximum sodium permeability $$\bar P_{_{{\rm N}a} } $$ is reduced to 60% of its value in the unpoisoned membrane. b) The sodium inactivation is markedly slowed and proceeds in two phases. c) The time course ofP Na can be described assuming that the variableh is the sum of two componentsx andy, whose time constants τ x and τ y are 4 and 200 times τh of the unpoisoned membrane. 4. The effects of scorpion venom on the potassium permeabilityP K are: a) The maximum potassium permeabilityP K' is reduced to about 35% of its normal value. b) The increase ofP K' upon depolarisation is slowed down; two phases can be distinguished. 5. The effects on sodium inactivation and potassium permeability may explain the extreme prolongation of the action potential under the influence of scorpion venom.

Die Wirkung von Skorpiongift auf die Inaktivierung der Natrium-PermeabilitätP Na wurde in voltage-clamp-Experimenten an einzelnen markhaltigen Nervenfasern von Xenopus laevis untersucht. 2. Beim normalen Ruhepotential warP Na der vergifteten Membran stärker inaktiviert als an der unvergifteten Membran; bei starken Depolarisationen war die Inaktivierung jedoch unvollständig. 3. Der zeitliche Verlauf vonP Na konnte unter verschiedenen experimentellen Bedingungen mit den Hodgkin-Huxley-Gleichungen beschrieben werden, die wie folgt modifiziert wurden: a) die Variableh wurde durch eine schnelle Komponentex und eine langsame Komponentey ersetzt; b) die Komponentex nahm selbst bei Depolarisationen von mehr als 40 mV nicht auf Null ab.
    Notes: Summary 1. The action of scorpion venom on the inactivation of the sodium permeabilityP Na was studied in voltage-clamp experiments on single myelinated nerve fibres of Xenopus laevis. 2. At the normal resting potentialP Na of the poisoned membrane was more inactivated than the control; at large depolarizations inactivation was, however, incomplete. 3. The time course ofP Na under various experimental conditions could be described by theHodgkin-Huxley equations modified as follows: a) the variableh was split into a fast and a slow component (x andy, respectively); b) componentx did not vanish even for depolarizations by more than 40 mV.

    Notes: Summary Voltage clamp experiments were done on myelinated nerve fibres of Xenopus laevis to study the effect of calcium on the ionic currents of the nodal membrane treated with scorpion venom. Increasing the calcium concentration of the medium from 1.8 to 7.2 mM produced the following changes of the sodium and potassium permeabilities,P Na andP K: a) The incomplete sodium inactivation, which is typical for nodes of Ranvier treated with scorpion venom, is abolished. The curves relatingm ∞ and τ m to membrane potential are shifted by 8–10 mV towards larger depolarizations.P Na and the time constants of the fast and slow components of the sodium inactivation remain practically unchanged. b) The maximum potassium permeability,P K, which is reduced by scorpion venom to 45% of the value observed in the normal node, increases to 68% by addition of calcium ions; τ n is unchanged. These effects of calcium ions on the ionic permeabilities explain the shortening of the extremely prolonged action potential and the inhibition of spontaneous activity observed in nodes of Ranvier poisoned with scorpion venom.
