    Notes: Summary Blood glucose and plasma insulin levels were measured in two groups of women, following one year of oral contraceptive therapy of different types. There were no significant differences from pretreatment glucose and insulin values in the first group of women (on ethynodiol diacetate). In the second group (on norethynodrel and mestranol), there was a significant elevation of mean blood glucose levels in the fasting state and at all times of an i. v. glucose tolerance test. Furthermore, a statistically significant alteration in plasma insulin was observed at all times of the test (except at 120 min). Patients participating in this study will continue this treatment, and results of carbohydrate metabolism monitoring will be reported after 2 years of therapy.

    Notes: Summary In order to evaluate long-term effects of different types of oral contraceptive compounds, blood glucose and plasma insulin levels were measured during an intravenous glucose tolerance test in 2 groups of normal, nondiabetic patients: 36 women using a progesterone-alone oral contraceptive, ethynodiol diacetate, and 36 women using a combinationtype drug, containing norethynodrel and mestranol. Each patient was tested before and after 6 months of treatment. There were no significant differences from pre-treatment glucose and insulin values in the first group of women (on ethynodiol diacetate). In the second group (on norethynodrel and mestranol), there was a significant elevation of mean blood glucose levels at 15, 30 and 120 min of the glucose tolerance test. Nevertheless, a significant elevation of plasma insulin was seen only at 60 min of the test. Patients participating in this study will continue this treatment, and monitoring of carbohydrate metabolism is contemplated over a period of several years.

    Notes: Summary In weanling male rats, destruction of the ventromedial hypothalamus causes increased carcass lipid deposition and decreased linear growth without changes in food intake or blood glucose levels. These changes are not dependent on altered pituitary function. Lipogenesis and glucose utilization are increased in vivo and in vitro, while gluconeogenesis is accelerated in vivo. The enhanced lipogenesis occurs before increased gluconeogenesis.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Du glucose U-14C a été injecté à des rats sevrés deux semaines après la destruction électrolytique des noyaux ventromédiaux de l'hypothalamus. Nous avons mesuré l'incorporation de la radioactivité dans les lipides du plasma de même que dans le foie, le tissu adipeux, le glycogène du diaphragme et du corps, les lipides totaux et les acides gras saponifiables. Au cours d'un régime avec ou sans graisse, les rats avec lésions incorporaient davantage de radioactivité dans tous les composés du tissu adipeux et dans les acides gras du foie, mais non dans le glycogène du foie. Pendant le régime avec graisse, la radioactivité des lipides du plasma était augmentée et celle des lipides totaux du foie restait constante, tandis que pendant le régime sans graisse, l'incorporation dans les lipides du plasma n'était pas augmentée, contrairement à l'incorporation dans les lipides du foie. La radioactivité des lipides totaux et des acides gras du diaphragme était augmentée tandis que celle du glycogène du diaphragme ne l'était pas. La radioactivité des lipides, des acides gras et du glycogène du corps était augmentée. - Le diaphragme a été également incubéin vitro avec le glucose U-14C ou le palmitate l-14C. L'incorporation du glucose dans les lipides totaux et les acides gras était augmentée tandis que son oxydation et son incorporation dans le glycogène ne l'étaient pas. L'oxydation et l'incorporation du palmitate dans les phospholipides étaient réduites, tandis que son incorporation dans les triglycérides était augmentée. - Les résultats ont été discutés dans le sens de changements similaires préalablement notés avec le tissu adipeuxin vitro.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Zwei Wochen nach elektrolytischer Zerstörung der ventromedialen Nuclei des Hypothalamus wurde entwöhnten Ratten U-14C-markierte Glucose eingespritzt. Es wurde die Inkorporation der Radioaktivität in Plasmalipide als auch in die Leber, das Fettgewebe, das Glykogen des Diaphragmas und des Körpers, die Gesamtlipide und die verseifbaren Fettsäuren gemessen. Bei fettfreier als auch bei fetthaltiger Diät inkorporierten Ratten mit Schäden im Hypothalamus mehr Radioaktivität in alle Fettgewebskomponenten und in Leberfettsäuren, aber nicht in Leberglykogen. Bei der fetthaltigen Diät war die Radioaktivität der Plasmalipide erhöht und die der gesamten Leberlipide unverändert geblieben. Bei einer fettfreien Ernährung war die Inkorporation in Plasmalipide nicht erhöht, während jene in Leberlipide angestiegen war. Die Radioaktivität der Gesamtlipide des Diaphragmas und der Fettsäuren war erhöht, diejenige des Diaphragmaglykogens jedoch nicht. Lipid-, Fettsäuren- und Glykogenradioaktivität des Körpers waren erhöht. - Das Diaphragma wurde ebenfallsin vitro mit U-14C-Glucose oder l-14C-Palmitat inkubiert. Die Glucoseinkorporation in Gesamtlipide und Fettsäuren war erhöht, dagegen nicht die Oxidation und Inkorporation in Glykogen. Die Palmitatoxidation und -inkorporation in Phospholipide war vermindert aber die Inkorporation in Triglyceride erhöht. — Die Ergebnisse werden im Lichte ähnlicher Veränderungen, die früher an Fettgewebenin vitro festgestellt wurden, diskutiert.
    Notes: Summary U-14C-Glucose was injected into weanling rats two weeks after electrolytic destruction of the ventromedial hypothalamic nuclei. Incorporation of radio-activity into plasma lipids as well as liver, adipose tissue, diaphragm and carcass glycogen, total lipid and saponifiable fatty acids was measured. On a fat free as well as on a chow diet, rats with lesions incorporated more radioativity into all adipose tissue components and into liver fatty acids but not into liver glycogen. On the fat containing diet (chow) radioactivity of plasma lipid was increased and that of liver total lipid unchanged, whereas on a fat-free diet incorporation into plasma lipid was not increased while that into liver lipid was. Diaphragm total lipid and fatty acid radioactivity was increased while that of diaphragm glycogen was not. Carcass lipid, fatty acid and glycogen radioactivity were increased. — Diaphragm was also incubatedin vitro with U-14C-Glucose or 1-14C-Palmitate. Glucose incorporation into total lipid and fatty acid was increased whereas oxidation and incorporation into glycogen were not. Palmitate oxidation and incorporation into phospholipid were decreased while incorporation into triglyceride was increased. - Results have been discussed in the light of similar changes previously noted with adipose tissuein vitro.

    Notes: Summary Post-mortem pathological and biochemical studies are reported on six patients with progressive dementia. The characteristic pathological finding was neurofilament-containing cytoplasmic inclusions in cortical and subcortical neurons. The clinical and pathological findings were consistent with so-called diffuse Lewy body disease. The patients had variable changes of the Alzheimer type, with five of six patients displaying “plaques only” Alzheimer's changes. Biochemical studies showed profound decreases in neocortical choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) activities that correlated with marked neuronal loss in the basal nucleus of Meynert. ChAT activities were normal in the hippocampus in three patients who also had no significant Alzheimer type hippocampal changes. All patients had decreased cortical somatostatin-like immunoreactivity. Our observations suggest that dementia in diffuse Lewy body disease bears biochemical similarities to Alzheimer's disease, in that biochemical markers for both intrinsic cortical neurons and ascending cholinergic neurons are affected.

    Notes: Summary Hirano bodies are filamentous, paracrystalline inclusions that are found in dendrites and cell bodies of neurons in Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases. Actin appears to be a major component of these structures. We present evidence that tropomyosin and high molecular weight microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) are also components of Hirano bodies. Although an association betwen actin and MAPs has been noted in vitro, interactions in vivo have not heretofore been demonstrated. Since microtubules are not present in Hirano bodies, and anti-tubulin and anti-neurofilament antibodies do not bind to Hirano bodies, the association between MAPs and these inclusions is likely a result of interactions between MAPs and actin, and not MAPs and microtubules or neurofilaments.

    Notes: Summary The cellular expression of estrogen receptor-related small heat-shock protein (HSP27) in meningiomas was investigated immunologically. A cytoplasmic distribution of HSP27 was demonstrated in surgical specimens of 22 of 26 cases with meningiomas and cultured meningioma cells derived from two individuals. By Western blotting, HSP27 was detected in every tissue homogenate of 17 cases studied. Thus, HSP27 appears to be constitutively expressed in most meningiomas. In anaplastic portions of one papillary meningioma, there were numerous granulofilamentous inclusion bodies [Goldman JE et al. (1980) Cancer 46:156–161]. The inclusion bodies were immunopositive for HSP27 despite the negativity of the tumor cytoplasms. Thus, HSP27 seems to participate in the formation of certain inclusion bodies in meningioma cells, like αB-crystallin which participates in the formation of Rosenthal fibers in astrocytes.

    Notes: Summary The composition of the eosinophilic inclusions of the large neurons in the human caudate nucleus and of neurons in the substantia nigra was investigated by immunocytochemical methods. Sections of caudate nucleus and substantia nigra were stained using a peroxidase-anti-peroxidase method with antisera to actin, to neurofilament proteins, and to a crude CNS microtubule fraction, the last of which reacts with neurofibrillary tangles. Of the several antisera, only the anti-actin antiserum gave positive results, indicating that these inclusions, composed of regularly arranged filaments, are highly ordered aggregates of actin polymers.

    Notes: Abstract In recent studies, we developed a combined nutrient removal-marine aquaculture process for the tertiary treatment of wastewater and the production of commercially important shellfish. Part of this process consists of an outdoor mass cultivation system for marine algae. During our previous experiments we observed that marine diatoms almost exclusively are the dominant algal species in our outdoor cultures. To better understand this phenomenon of diatom dominance we grew 16 species of marine algae in continuous monoculture under laboratory conditions simulating to some degree the conditions prevailing in our outdoor experiments. Species such as Skeletonema costatum, Monochrysis lutheri and Tetraselmis sp., which were never dominant in our outdoor cultures, grew as well in monoculture, as Phaeodactylum tricornutum, frequently, the prevalent species outdoors. However, when monocultures of Dunaliella tertiolecta and Thalassiosira pseudonana (3H) were purposely contaminated with P. tricornutum, the latter species quickly became dominant. It is suggested that a complex interaction of environmental factors is usually responsible for the dominance of a particular species; one such factor may be the nitrogen source in the growth media. Under conditions of virtually, complete nitrogen assimilation, the carbon: nitrogen ratio in the algae was high (7 to 8) when NO 3 - −N was the source of nitrogen, and low (4 to 6) when NH 4 + −N was the prime form of nitrogen. When algal growth was low, resulting in a large inorganic nitrogen residue, the carbon:nitrogen ratio was low regardless of whether NO 3 - −N or NH 4 + −N was the main nitrogen source.
