    Notes: Abstract The variation with depth in water, lipid, protein, carbon and nitrogen contents (% wet weight) of 42 species of midwater fishes, collected in November 1976 off the west coast of Oahu in the Hawaiian Archipelago, was measured. The Hawaiian fishes show significant relationships between these components and depth of occurrence. The slopes of these relationships are not significantly different from those reported for midwater fishes from off California, USA. However, the fishes from Hawaii have significantly lower lipid levels and higher protein levels than do the species from off California. The deep-living Hawaiian species (500 m and deeper) have significantly lower lipid (% wet weight), but there is no significant difference in protein (% wet weight). The difference in lipid contents at all depths appears to be an evolved characteristic, with the greater lipid levels off California being selected for by greater spatial and temporal variation in the food supply for these fishes off the California coast than off Hawaii. The higher protein contents in the shallow-living Hawaiian fishes appear to reflect greater muscle power selected for in these fishes by the greater water clarity, and therefore greater “reactive distances”, in the surface layers off Hawaii. These conclusions support the general hypothesis that the lower protein contents of bathypelagic fishes are not directly selected by food limitation at depth, but rather result from the relaxation of selection for rapid-swimming abilities at greater depths due to the great reduction at greater depths in the distance over which visual predator-prey interactions can take place. The lower lipid levels in the deeper-living species are apparently made possible by the reduced metabolic rates of these species which reduces their need for energy stores.

    Notes: Abstract The content of water, ash, carbohydrate, lipid, protein, chitin, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and energy was measured for all life stages of the bathypelagic mysid Gnathophausia ingens collected in San Clemente Basin off Southern California, USA between January 1969 and February 1982. These data are used to examine the life history, growth rates, growth pattern and partitioning of material and energy over the life of this species. Females reproduce only once and brood their young for about 1.5 yr, during which time the females do not feed. This species has a very high reproductive effort: of the energy accumulated over its life, 61.3% is used in egg production, 13.4% in parental care of young, 5.6% in cast exoskeletons and only 19.6% remains in the females after brooding. The relative rate of growth (percentage of energy d−1) is about 1% immediately after leaving the mother and declines to about 0.2% as maturity is approached. Such growth rates appear to be typical for an animal of this size living at low temperatures. The evolutionary context of this mysid's life history is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract We have studied growth, energy use and reproduction in 4 mesopelagic fishes and 5 bathypelagic fishes living off Southern California (USA). All of the mesopelagic species underwent diurnal vertical migrations, while none of the bathypelagic species did so. The life histories of these pelagic fishes were compared among themselves and with epipelagic sardines and anchovies studied by others. The epipelagic species had the highest growth rates (estimated from otoliths, expressed in standard length or kilocalories), the mesopelagic species had the lowest growth rates and the bathypelagic species had intermediate growth rates. The relatively rapid growth rates of the bathypelagic fishes were achieved by high relative growth efficiencies made possible by low metabolic rates. Of the species studied, the lifespans of the epipelagic and bathypelagic species ranged from 4 to 8 yr and the lifespans of mesopelagic species from 5 to 8 yr. Data on egg diameters suggest that the mesopelagic species first reproduce in their 3rd yr, while the bathypelagic species do so in their last year. Epipelagic fishes generally have a large size, rapid growth, long life and early, repeated reproduction. Mesopelagic fishes are characterized by small size, slow growth, long life and early, repeated reproduction. Bathypelagic fishes generally have large size, rapid growth, somewhat shorter lives and late reproduction, which is possible a single event. The latter pattern is evidently feasible only in a rather stable environment where juvenile survivorship would always display relatively low variability. Many unusual characteristics of deep-living animals have possibly been selected by factors peculiar to the environment; however, such characteristics are just as likely to have been selected by factors equally present in many other environments, but not expressed there due to masking selective forces. In particular, we have in mind the darkness, stability and homogeneity of the bathypelagic realm as phenomena which represent the effective absence of many selective forces.

    Notes: Abstract Gnathophausia ingens has 13 instars, each with a distinct range of sizes which does not overlap the sizes of adjacent instars. The intermolt interval, measured in the laboratory at 5.5°, 6.5° and 7.5°C, increases with increasing size and decreases with increasing temperature. At 5.5°C it varies from 166 days for the smallest individuals to 253 days for the oldest. The period of larval development in the marsupium of a female is estimated to be 530 days. The life span of females is estimated to be 2,950 days with the onset of reproduction at 2,400 days. It is sugquested that this species is semelparous. The population structure data suggest that there is low mortality through the first 7 instars, progressively higher mortality from Instar 8 through Instar 11, and slightly lower mortality in the remaining 2 instars. These life-history characteristics appear to be directed toward maximizing absolute fecundity (as opposed to time-specific fecundity) in a stable environment. These characteristics may have been selected for by low available food energy and made possible by the stability of the deep sea.

    Notes: Summary CI-924 (CI), 5,5′-[[1,1′-biphenyl]-2,5-diylbis(oxy)]bis[2,2-dimethylpentanoic acid] is chemically similar to gemfibrozil. Patients with Type II (n=13) and Type IV (n=22) hyperlipoproteinaemia (HLP) were maintained 12 weeks on a baseline diet containing 55% sugar, 15% protein 30% fat and 〈300 mg cholesterol daily to stabilize weight and lipids. They were then entered in a parallel group double-blinded protocol and received 0, 300, 600, or 1200 mg CI p.o. daily for 12 weeks. CI consistently elevated anti-atherogenic HDL and lowered VLDL at 600 mg/day in both Type II and Type IV HPL at 8 weeks. In Type II patients, CI lowered cholesterol, decreased LDL/HDL and increased ApoA-I. In Type IV patients, CI also lowered TC while elevating LDL and ApoA-II. CI had no effect on Apo-B, LDL-ApoB, or Apo-E.

    Notes: Summary This study determined the effect of pinacidil on the concentration of plasma lipids and apolipoproteins in male patients previously equilibrated with 25 mg hydrochlorothiazide twice daily. Pinacidil therapy given to 52 hypertensives at 25 to 100 mg daily for 8 weeks resulted in a reduction of systolic and diastolic blood pressure concurrently to reductions in plasma cholesterol and triglycerides with no change in low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C). There was an associated decrease in apolipoproteins (Apo)B, C-III and E and elevation in ApoA-I. A parallel placebo group of 44 patients experienced reduction in diastolic blood pressure and an elevation in ApoA-I. These changes indicate that pinacidil will be a useful antihypertensive agent having properties on lipoprotein metabolism which would favor decreased risks of atherosclerosis.
