    Notes: Summary A family in which the proband showed phenotypic signs of both the Turner and Down syndromes was studied cytogenetically and with restriction fragment length polymorphisms. The proband's karyotype was 46,X,+21, showing double aneuploidy without any signs of mosaicism. The single X and one chromosome 21 were of paternal origin while two chromosomes 21 were of maternal origin. The nondisjunction of chromosome 21 took place in maternal meiosis II. If it is assumed that the absence of mosaicism renders postzygotic mitotic loss of the X chromosome unlikely, then the X chromosome would have been lost in maternal meiosis I or II. Recombination had occurred between the nondisjoined chromosomes 21. We conclude that double nondisjunction took place in one parent and that asynapsis was not a prerequisite for the autosomal nondisjunction.

    Notes: Abstract  Cystatin C is a non-glycated, 13-kDa basic protein produced by all nucleated cells. Recent studies have indicated that the plasma concentration of cystatin C is a better marker for glomerular filtration rate (GFR) than plasma creatinine, which is most commonly used for this purpose. We established reference values for plasma cystatin C in pre- or full-term infants and children. For comparison we also measured the creatinine concentration in the same samples. Cystatin C was measured by a commercially available immunoturbidimetric method with a Hitachi 704 analyzer in sera obtained from 58 pre-term infants, 50 full-term infants and 299 older children (132 girls, 167 boys, median age 4.17 years, range 8 days to 16 years). No sex differences were found. The pre-term infants had higher cystatin C concentrations (mean 1.88 mg/l, SD 0.36 mg/l) than the full-term (mean 1.70 mg/l, SD 0.26 mg/l, P=0.0145). The reference interval for pre-term infants calculated non-parametrically was 1.34–2.57 mg/l and for full-term infants 1.36–2.23 mg/l. The cystatin C concentration decreased rapidly after birth, and above 3 years of age did not depend on age. The reference interval for children 3–16 years of age calculated non-parametrically was 0.51–1.31 mg/l. Younger children (〈1 year: 0.75–1.87 mg/l; 1–3 years: 0.68 –1.60 mg/l) had slightly, but significantly, higher plasma cystatin C levels.

    Notes: Abstract An immunohistochemical study was undertaken, in an attempt to identify the acidic glycoprotein(s) present in colloid and in parenchymal cells in human fetal pituitary gland. As the colloid has been proposed to represent disintegrating cells, a series of antibodies against plasma glycoproteins and plasma proteins was applied; their presence intracellularly would generally be an indicator of plasma membrane leakage in dying parenchymal cells. In tissue sections from 9- to 20-week-old fetuses, the colloid showed prominent staining with an antibody to human fetuin/α2 HS glycoprotein. Anti-α2-HS glycoprotein labelled parenchymal cells in pars anterior and intermedia. Apart from a minor immunoreactivity for α1 β glycoprotein, no other plasma glycoprotein was seen in colloid or parenchymal cells. An antibody against bovine fetuin showed staining of the colloid and of some parenchymal cells in pars distalis and intermedia; the plasma and stroma of the pituitary gland were unstained. In contrast, the anti-human plasma protein antibodies all stained the stroma. The presence of α2 HS glycoprotein in parenchymal cells and absence of other plasma glycoproteins imply integrity of the parenchymal cell plasma membrane. Thus, α2 HS glycoprotein is either synthesized locally or taken up specifically in the parenchymal cells, which are proposed to participate in the formation of colloid. It is suggested that α2 HS glycoprotein is part of a homeostatic system, which controls remodelling and physiological cell death during development.

    Notes: Summary The CNS of the newly born opossum removed in its entirety survives and maintains its electrical excitability in suitable culture media for up to ten days at 25 ° C. The structure of the developing neonatal spinal cord has been studied in the intact animal and in the cultured CNS. The differentiation and survival of individual cells and subcellular structures were followed at the light and electron microscopic level. The expression of cell markers in neuronal and glial cells was studied immunocytochemically using commercially available antibodies. Both mono- and polyclonal antibodies raised against antigens from several other species cross-reacted with Monodelphis antigens. The spinal cord of preparations removed from three-day-old-animals showed many neuron specific enolase-positive large neurons in the ventral horn as well as vimentin- and glial fibrillary acidic protein-positive radial glial cells and numerous small diameter unmyelinated axons, abundant dendrites and synaptic structures. From post natal day 5 to post natal day 8 continued differentiation of neurons and differentiation of radial glial cells into astrocytes were apparent. Radial glial fibres and astrocytes reacted positively to antibodies against glial fibrillary acidic protein. Myelin had not appeared at 8 days. A comparison of material obtained from postnatal day 3-postnatal day 4 preparations fixed immediately after dissection and from postnatal day 3-postnatal day 4 preparations fixed after 5 days in culture showed growth with continued mitotic activity of the neuroepithelial cells and further neuronal and glial maturation in the spinal cord especially in the more rostral end. In successful experimentsin vitro, the preservation of individual cells, organelles, membranes and synapses was similar in the freshly dissected and cultured preparations apart from a distinct loss of the youngest and some of the oldest neurons in the spinal cord. Also the main fibre tracts (dorsal, lateral and ventromedial funiculus) survived. Virtually all preparations that had not been damaged or injured showed these results. Possible reasons for the death or survival of individual neuronal or glial cell populations in these preparations are discussed.
