    Notes: Summary In the present work we study a sequential degree of response to insulin (0.001 IU/g body weight) in neonatal rats, using as parameters the blood glucose and the adrenal catecholamine levels. In 1-day and 90-day-old rats treated by insulin the glycemia showed a more marked fall than the rest of neonates. After insulin administration noradrenaline content did not show differences between control and treated rats. In contrast, adrenaline depletion was significant in adults (62.20%) and in neonates of 7 and 10 days of age (45% and 35.5%, respectively). No significant decrease of the amine was observed in the younger rats (1 to 4-days-old). This response to insulin probably depends on the gradual maturation and innervation of the adrenal chromaffin tissue.

    Notes: Summary The activities of three methylating enzymes HIOMT, COMT, and HNMT were determined in pineal glands from 2 groups of adult vizcachas of both sexes, one (I) maintained under permanent lighting (15 days) and the other (II) kept in darkness. The control determinations (III) were carried out in pineal glands from animals hunted and killed during the night. In (I) the HIOMT activity decreased and the COMT activity increased; no changes were exhibited by HNMT. In (II) showed a diminished HIOMT activity. In captivity illumination affected HIOMT and COMT activities in a similar form to that observed in other species of rodents. The decrease in HIOMT activity in (II) suggests that captivity may affect pineal function, possibly as a consequence of a decrease in locomotor activity.

    Notes: Resumen Células de pars intermedia bovina, dispersas por tripsina y cultivadas por 60 dias mantienen las caracteristicas morfológicas del tipo glandular descripto in vivo. Los medios muestran actividad melanocito-dispersante sobre la piel deRana pipiens. Estos resultados sugieren que las células cultivadas retienen la específica capacidad de sintetizar MSH.

    Notes: Summary The splanchnic nerves of toads were tightly ligated and the organelles present both on the proximal and the distal side of the constriction were counted after zero, 24 and 48 hrs. Swelling of the fibers and accumulation of mitochondria and of smooth canaliculi were found to be the most conspicuous expressions of damming in the nerve segments above the constriction. No changes in the microtubule population or in the ratio of dense-core microtubules to empty microtubules were observed. A progressive collection of granulated vesicles is described for a minority of fibers in the segment proximal to the ligature. Evidence is presented in support of the view that such granulated vesicles are budded from swollen canaliculi. Fine structural expressions of damming were not found in the nerve segments distal to the constriction.

    Notes: Summary The present report is a description of an abdominal sympathetic ganglion in close proximity to the kidneys (pararenal ganglion), which occurs in the toad. It is apparently associated with the splanchnic nerves and consists of: 1. typical ganglion cells; 2. myelinated and unmyelinated nerve fibers, some of which form axosomatic synapses (cholinergic junctions) and spine synapses (adrenergic junctions) with the ganglion cells; 3. clusters of noradrenergic chromaffin cells. Cells and fibers are distributed within wide interstices containing fibrocytes, collagen fibers, blood vessels, and mast cells.

    Notes: Numerous microtubules of nerve cells and gliocytes in the toad are found, in electron micrographs, to contain a dense core. Such content is granular in nature, the granules being irregularly disposed in the lumen of the microtubules. Comparative observations on dense-core microtubules in peripheral and central nerve cells indicate that they are consistent cell components in the entire nervous system of the toad. The functional significance of the granular content of the microtubles is discussed.
