    Notes: Summary Twelve patients (age 33–77 years, mean age 68.4 years) with peripheral vascular disease (PVD) stage III–IV received continuous intravenous infusions of 5 ng prostacyclin (PGI2)/kg/min and physiological saline for 7 days. The administration was randomized and double-blind with an interval of 7 days between the infusions. During PGI2 infusion systolic blood pressure fell significantly from 147.8±4.8 mm Hg to 140.6±4.0 mm Hg (P〈0.01) and returned to 144.5±4.9 mm Hg post infusion. Transcutaneous p 2 O (tcp 2 O ) measured on the instep of the affected limb increased significantly by 8.9±3.8 Torr during PGI2 infusion and remained elevated during the subsequent week. A significant reduction of pain was observed from the 5th day of PGI2 infusion, lasting for at least the following observation period. Platelet cAMP increased from 18.8±1.5 pmol/108 platelets to 24.7±1.6 pmol/108 platelets on the 3rd day of PGI2 infusion (P〈0.01). Spontaneous platelet aggregation was also significantly reduced during PGI2 infusion. However, 7 days after the infusion thromboxane B2 (TXB2) in plasma and spontaneous platelet aggregation significantly increased in comparison with the preinfusion values, indicating a rebound phenomenon. The clinical outcome was favorable in 9 of 12 patients, was unchanged in two patients, while progressing to limb amputation in one patient.

    Notes: Summary The technical evolution of ultrasonic equipment provides a high resolution imaging analysis of the vessel wall and thereby offers new possibilities in diagnosing very early atherosclerotic changes. The typical B-mode image in human and animal arteries shows parallel wall contures enclosing a hypoechcic space. In this study in Vitro-and in Vivo-experiments in rabbit aortas document the distance between these contures correlating histologically with a high cholesterol diet caused a broadening of the hypoechoic space in the rabbit aortic vessel wall. The data demonstrate that high resolution Duplex Sonography is a useful noninvasive approach for the detection of very early atherosclerotic changes in arterial vessel walls in a stage before plaques can be identified.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Wurzelstücke vonArmoracia rusticana wurden auf Agarmedien nachMurashige undSkoog 1962 mit Zusatz von 2,4 D kultiviert. Daraus entstanden Kallusgewebe mit zahlreichen Vegetationspunkten. Ohne Zusatz von Wuchsstoffen entwickelten sich Pflänzchen, die in Erde ausgesetzt zu groß en Individuen mit verschieden deformierten Blättern heranwuchsen. Diese, sowie steril gezogene Pflanzen und der Kallus wurden elektronenmikroskopisch untersucht. Es fielen zweierlei Einschlüsse auf, schalenförmige, aufgebaut aus isometrischen Partikeln und spindelartige, bestehend aus fibrillären Partikeln. Die schalenförmigen Einschlüsse treten im Cytoplasma meristematischer Zellen des Kallus auf, die Partikeln sind ca. 20–22 nm groß. In allen übrigen untersuchten Geweben kommen die gleichen Aggregate nur in der Vakuole vor. Die Partikeln wurden auch in Plasmodesmen sämtlicher Gewebe gefunden. Sie liegen innerhalb eines Tubulus, der auf einer Seite der Zellwand ins Cytoplasma vorsteht. Desmotubuli kommen nur in partikelfreien Plasmodesmen vor. Zellwandvorstülpungen wurden nur in Kallusgewebe und Epidermiszellen der Blätter beobachtet. Innerhalb dieser sind ebenfalls Tubuli mit isometrischen Partikeln zu finden. Auffallend große Hohlräume in den Zellwänden der Kalluszellen, die in Verbindung mit Plasmodesmen stehen, enthalten viele zum Teil geordnete Partikeln. Es hat den Anschein, als würden sie in der Zellwand wie auch in der Vakuole abgelagert. Die fibrillären Partikeln kommen selten gemeinsam mit den isometrischen in derselben Zelle vor. Man findet sie im Cytoplasma und im Zellkern meist in Form von Spindeln. Die Fibrillen haben einen Durchmesser von ca. 12 nm. Das Thylakoidsystem der ausdifferenzierten Chloroplasten im Kallus und in den Blattzellen ist bogig gekrümmt, einzelne aufgetriebene Thylakoide liegen als Vesikeln im peripheren Stroma. Da die Gewebe vonArmoracia- Pflanzen verschiedener Fundorte keine derartigen Einschlüsse und Piastidenveränderungen aufwiesen, kann angenommen werden, daß die für die Kultur verwendeten Wurzelstücke von zwei verschiedenen Viren infiziert waren. Eine Isolierung der Viren ist bisher nicht gelungen.
    Notes: Summary Root explants ofArmoracia rusticana were cultivatedin vitro on theMurashige, andSkoog 1962 nutrient medium with addition of 2,4 D (2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid). Under such conditions callus tissue containing several apical meristems developed. Without 2,4 D the explants were growing to aseptic small plants; when further cultivated in soil they developed into big plants showing leaves with different deformations. These leaves, aseptically cultivated plants and callus tissue were examined by light and electron microscopy. There occured two types of inclusions consisting of isometric and elongated particles, respectively. Those of the isometric type were observed in the cytoplasm of meristematic cells of the callus; the isometric particles had a diameter of about 20–22 nm and were arranged hexagonally or in curvilinear arrays. In all other tissues that were examined such aggregates were to be seen only in vacuoles. Isometric particles were also found in plasmodesmata of all tissues examined. They lay in a tubulus which protrudes into the cytoplasm on one side of the cell wall. Desmotubuli appeared only in particle-free plasmodesmata. Protrusions of the cell wall into the cytoplasm containing tubuli and isometric particles within were observed only in callus tissue and in epidermic cells of leaves. In the cell wall of callus cells, conspicuous cavities connected with the cytoplasm by plasmodesmata contained many particles which were arranged in hexagonal structures. It seemed as if they had been put away into the cell walls or into the vacuoles. The occurence of fibrillar inclusions together with those consisting of isometric particles in the same cell was extremely rare. The fibrillar inclusions were observed in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus. The diameter of one fibril is about 12 nm. The thylacoids in well differentiated chloroplasts in callus and in cells of leaves are curved; single swelled thylacoids lie as vesicles in peripheral stroma. As tissues ofArmoracia rusticana plants from different localities do not contain such inclusions we assume that the root segment examined was infected with two different viruses. The isolation of the viruses has not yet been possible.

    Notes: Summary PGI2 increased cAMP levels in cultured endothelial cells derived from bovine aortas in the presence of isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX). Stable PGI analogues were more effective, while PGE1 was without effect. In cultured smooth muscle cells from bovine aortas, PGI2, PGE1 and the stable PGI analogues dose-dependently increased cAMP levels in the absence and presence of IBMX. The data confirm the stimulatory effect of PGI2 on cAMP content in bovine coronary artery rings and suggest that the effect is mainly due to the stimulatory action of PGI2 on cAMP in smooth muscle cells.

    Notes: Summary In rabbits receiving an atherogenic diet for 2 months, the ATP content of platelet rich plasma (PRP) and arterial tissue was significantly elevated as compared to normal rabbits. This increase in ATP levels of platelets from atherosclerotic rabbits was paralleled by higher basal as well as PGI2-induced cAMP levels. In arterial tissues, an increase was only obtained in PGI2-stimulated cAMP content. Treatment with dipyridamole (DPD) for 4 weeks resulted in a reduction of the ATP content in platelets and arterial tissue from atherosclerotic rabbits to values seen in normal animals. Again, the reduction of ATP content was reflected in a decrease of basal as well as PGI2-induced cAMP levels in platelets, whereas in arterial tissue a decrease was only obtained in PGI2-induced cAMP content. At the same time, DPD treatment enhanced atherosclerotic plaque formation in the aortic wall. The enhanced atherosclerotic plaque formation seen in DPD treated atherosclerotic rabbits may be linked to the inhibition of adenosine uptake, resulting in a decrease of the adenine nucleotide pools of arterial wall cells. The decrease also caused a reduction in PGI2-induced cAMP content. This effect may be linked to altered proliferative activity, since in many cell types, stimulation of cAMP levels results in reduced proliferation rates.

    Notes: Summary Incubation of bovine coronary artery (BCA) rings with isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX) resulted in a time-dependent increase of cAMP content. This effect was blocked, when the rings were preincubated with indomethacin or 15-hydroperoxy-arachidonic acid for 5 min, indicating that the IBMX-induced increase in cAMP content may depend on endogenous PGI2 formation. PGE2 did not increase the cAMP content in BCA rings. Dipyridamole did not affect cAMP content, when used as a substitute for IBMX. It is suggested that PGI2 stimulates cAMP formation in arterial walls, but that this effect only becomes visible in the presence of a phosphodiesterase inhibitor.

    Notes: Summary Callus tissue, plants grown in the Botanical gardens, andin vitro cultivated plants ofArmoracia rusticana, were investigated. Dilated rough cisternae of ER characteristic ofBrassicaceae andCapparaceae occur in both the leaf and the root callus. They are spindle shaped and contain granula and filaments the latter are often oriented longitudinally. A tubular pattern could never be observed in the cisternae of the callus. This pattern is considered as typical of the dilated cisternae of the leaves and shoots ofArmoracia plants grown in the garden and of plants cultivatedin vitro. Few cells of the shoot apex containing filamentous material, however, were additionally found. In parenchyma cells of aseptically cultivated plants cisternae often fuse into shapeless formations which seem to persist. Phloem parenchyma cells of plants cultivatedin vitro contain tubules and areas of filaments in the very same cisternae, we suppose a close connexion between the two structures. Adjacent tubules appear to be linked by fine filaments. In the transverse section they form a hexagonal pattern with a centre-to-centre spacing of about 60 nm. The tubules have an external diameter of 20–24 nm and seem to be formed by 5 or 6 subunits in the transection. In differentiating sieve elements P protein tubules and cisternae containing tubules occur together. Relationship between the two tubules cannot be found. The idioblasts of the aseptically cultivated plants develop in the same way as those of plants grown in the Botanical gardens but they are absent in the callus tissue.
