    Notes: Abstract The gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) determined by measuring dye coupling with Lucifer yellow, decreased within 3 d from 66% to 28% in monocultures of rat liver parenchymal cells. Coculturing of the parenchymal cells with a nonparenchymal epithelial cell line from rat liver resulted in increased and stabilized intercellular communication (83% after 3 d). The presence of isolated plasma membrane vesicles of the nonparenchymal epithelial cells also stabilized the intercellular communication between the liver parenchymal cells (70% after 3 d). When liver parenchymal cells were cocultured with a rat liver fibroblast cell line the gap junctional communication between the parenchymal cells was not stabilized (43% after 3 d), and isolated plasma membrane vesicles of the fibroblast were also unable to support the GJIC in parenchymal cells (35% after 3 d). It is concluded that plasma membrane constituents of the nonparenchymal epithelial cells were responsible for the stabilization of the GJIC between parenchymal cells. A heterotypic gap junctional communication between parenchymal and nonparenchymal cells was not observed.

    Notes: Abstract About 250 μmol/kg tetrachloromethane is metabolized by male Sprague-Dawley rats receiving a dose of 500 μmol/kg by inhalation. Determination of enzyme activities and histopathological assessment show that various parameters reflecting cellular injury do not differ for the same amount of tetrachloromethane metabolized under different oxygen partial pressures. On the other hand, the amounts of ethane and pentane exhaled under hypoxic conditions are greater than under normoxia. The previously reported differences in the toxicity of tetrachloromethane upon exposure under normoxia or hypoxia seem to be mainly due to the different amounts of tetrachloromethane metabolized under both conditions.

    Notes: Summary We report the occurrence of bilateral sacroiliitis in 2 cases of biopsy-proven sarcoidosis. Tuberculosis was excluded by tuberculin testing and bronchoalveolar lavage in both cases. In the literature, 5 cases of sacroiliitis and sarcoidosis have thus far been described, but in all tuberculosis was not excluded (tuberculin testing was not performed or revealed a postive test result). In 1 of these cases tuberculosis was even simultaneously suspected to be present. In all previous cases, antituberculous or other antimicrobial agents were given. Previously reported cases of sacroiliitis in sarcoidosis are briefly reviewed, and possible relations between seronegative spondylarthropathies, slow bacterial infections, sarcoidosis and other granulomatous diseases are discussed.
