    Notes: The hearts of 38 black-footed ferrets (Mustela nigripes) were studied with the use of physiologic, microdissection, vascular injection and histologic methods. These animals had a mean heart rate of 265 per minute, a heart weight of 3.7-5.2 gm, and a mean aortic pressure of 139.5 mm Hg. The predominant left coronary artery supplied usually both the SA and AV nodes, as well as the AV bundle, bundle branches and most of the ventricular myocardium. The cells of a well differentiated cardiac conduction system increase in cytoplasmic diameter from the SA node to the distal bundle branches. A cartilaginous right fibrous trigone and thick anulus fibrosus form useful landmarks for delineating AV node and AV bundle relationships. Small size, discrete nodal masses and a unique coronary arterial pattern make this heart an ideal model for histochemical, ultrastructural, electrophysiologic and pathologic circulation research.

    Notes: This light microscopic study of the cardiac junctional tissues was based on 27 human embryos, fetuses and postnatal hearts. Evidence was presented that superficial and deep portions of the postnatal AV node were derived from two cellular primordia in the posterior wall of the common atrium at the 6-mm stage. The small right primordia was associated with the right venous valve and gave rise to the loosely organized superficial AV node that extended posteriorly to the coronary sinus ostium. A larger left primordia formed the more compact deep subdivision of the AV node located against the anulus fibrosus. In most postnatal hearts the two subdivisions are partially or completely fused to form the adult AV node. Failure of the nodal primordia to fuse during cardiogenesis may result in two separate nodal cell aggregates above the anulus. The present observations provide a rational explanation for the two AV nodal masses described in the literature and an additional specimen that is illustrated in this communication.An AV bundle was first identified in a 13-mm embryo and appeared to be derived from large clear cells of the posterior AV canal. At 25 mm the bundle formed a broad band across the top of the IV septum and continued into both ventricles. At this stage multiple cell strands penetrated the endocardial cushion to connect the AV bundle to the two nodal primordia. Failure of normal fusion between the AV node primordia and AV bundle can result in a variety of junctional anomalies including congenital heart block.

    Notes: The dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus nerve (DMX) of adult cats and young kittens was studied by quantitative light microscopic methods. In normal animals, the DMX was found to contain no distinct subgroupings of neurons, based on somatic volume or Nissl pattern. Retrograde perikaryal responses to axotomy of neurons in the DMX were found to be of a more subtle nature than those seen in other types of neurons. Quantitative methodology applied to the DMX after cervical vagotomy permitted a better understanding of the results of axotomy than could be obtained by routine microscopic observations. Changes which occurred included a slight chromatolytic reaction, and a decrease in the volume of the nucleus followed by an increase in somatic volume. These morphological alterations were affected by the factors of age of the animal, time after axotomy, and length of the intact proximal axon stump. More pronounced perikaryal changes occurred when the vagus nerve was recut at a more proximal level five days after the first vagotomy. Interpretation of the data yielded the conclusion that most if not all neurons of the ipsilateral DMX contribute axons to the cervical vagus nerge. In addition, at least 10% of the neurons on the side contralateral to vagotomy showed signs of retrograde reaction. It was therefore concluded that there exists in the vagus nerve a population of axons with cell bodies located in the contralateral DMX.

    Notes: Twenty human brains were weighed as fresh specimens and for varying periods of time following fixation in 10% formol. Meninges and blood vessels were removed, the brain stem was trimmed uniformly and a final total cleaned brain weight was thereby obtained. Ten brains (group I) were specially dissected to determine the respective weights of eight brain subdivisions. Ten fixed brains (group II) were boiled for 20 minutes, then refixed in formol for 30 days. Group II specimens were then dissected into the same eight subdivisions.The use of standardized procedures and meticulous dissection yielded surprisingly uniform fractionation of the specimens in both groups I and II. This study indicates that precise gross dissection can be used as an accurate method of subdividing the human brain by weight.

    Notes: A study of 40 racing Greyhounds and 60 mongrel dogs provided comparative data on the respective components of the canine electrocardiogram. Additional data revealed that the Greyhound had a heart weight  -  body weight ratio of 1.25 gm, a heart rate of 115 beats per minute, a systolic blood pressure of 254 mm of Hg, and a diastolic pressure of 139 mm of Hg. These findings in an athletic animal are compared with similar observations in untrained animals. The significance of this basic information is presented and discussed.

    Notes: This light microscope study on the cell diameters of six myocardial structures was based 15 primate hearts. One hundred cell measurements were made of each cell category in each of five speciments of three primate species (monkey, baboon, man). Mean values of cell diameter, range and the standard error of each group of measurements are presented in graph form. The coefficients of variation between the cells in each of the five hearts of each species are presented. Microscopically the small cells of the SA and AV nodes constitute a more uniform population, while the atrium, AV bundle and left bundle branch have a heterogeneous admixture of large and small cells. Left ventricles of the human and baboon hearts had more uniform cell populations than did the left ventricle of the monkey. Representative examples of the more heterogeneous areas are demonstrated photographically. The sources of error, importance of several cardiac junction sites, significance of cell diameter in cardiac hypertrophy and the potential relationship between cell size and cardiac conduction velocities are presented.

    Notes: The development of the atrioventricular (AV) node and bundle in the ferret heart was examined at the light microscopic level. The AV node develops from two primordia which were first observed in the posterior wall of the common atrium during the stage when the single heart tube convolutes. During septation of the heart, the AV nodal primordia eventually fuse and come to lie at the base of the interatrial septum. The right AV nodal primordium is located below the attachment of the right venous valve to the interatrial septum. The left AV nodal primordium maintains a position anterior to the prospective ostium of the coronary sinus. At 16 days of gestation, large pale cells were seen in the dorsal AV canal. By 21 days of gestation these AV canal cells have been replaced by AV bundle cells. At this time the bundle is continuous with both nodal primordia. At birth the AV bundle is continuous mainly with the component of the AV node that is derived from the right AV node primordium. The anulus fibrosus begins to undergo the greatest developmental change after the AV node and bundle attain their final position in the AV junction. However, the anulus does not completely separate the atria from the ventricles during the later stages of development nor at birth, so that accessory AV pathways are present in the newborn ferret heart. Both the AV node and the AV bundle also demonstrated continuity with the myocardial cells of the interventricular septum in the neonatal heart. During development there was no evidence that rings of specialized tissues at the junctions of the cardiac chambers give rise to any component of the cardiac conduction system.
