    Notes: Nitric oxide is generated from L-arginine by nitric oxide synthase (NOS), which has at least three isoJorms: endothelial-type NOS (eNOS) and brain-type NOS (bNOS) are constitutive enzymes, and inducible-type NOS (iNOS) is expressed after stimulation. Studies by the avidin-biotin immunocomplex method, revealed eNOS immunoreactivity exclusively in the human eccrine clear cells. No eNOS immunoreactivity was observed in the eccrine dark cells or myoepithelial cells. No staining of iNOS or bNOS was observed in the eccrine yland. These findings indicate that NO pUiys a physiological part in the production and/or excretion of sweat in the human skin eccritie gland.

    Notes: The stability constants for the inclusion of fragrance materials with 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (2HP-β-C yD) in aqueous solution have been determined by the static head-space method. The 1:1 stability constants obtained by this method were in reasonable agreement with the corresponding values in the literature. In addition, the release profiles of fragrance materials from 2HP-β-CyD aqueous solution were investigated using the dynamic head-space method. It was found that the suppression of the fragrance materials release was dependent on their stability constants.

    Correlation among dominance status, metabolic rate and otolith size in masu salmon (1998)

    Notes: In spatial competition between individuals, neither fish sex nor body mass affected dominance status in masu salmon Oncorhynchus masou . In contrast, resting metabolic rate (MR) was significantly correlated with dominance status, indicating that a high metabolic rate can increase the dominance rank of juvenile salmon. Whole animal growth rate was significantly correlated with MR, but not with initial body weight. This suggests that the body size of masu salmon is not a cause, but rather a consequence, of dominance status which is closely related to MR. The increment width between otolith daily rings was also significantly correlated with MR. Thus, the size of the Otolith may indicate the degree of MR.

    Notes: Changes in cytosolic proteins of the olfactory system (olfactory epithelium, olfactory nerve and olfactory bulb) and the telencephalon of masu salmon Oncorhynchus masou were analysed by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis during parr-smolt transformation; parr, pre-smolt and full-smolt stages. In the olfactory system, several protein spots appeared and disappeared in the course of smolting. One protein spot in particular with an estimated molecular weight of 27 kDa and isoelectric point of 5.6 (M27) disappeared in common with the olfactory system during smolting. The disappearance of M27 was also observed in the telencephalon. These proteins, which appeared and disappeared, may reflect the changes in olfactory function during smolting. Simultaneously, the present study confirmed a salmonid olfactory specific protein of 24 kDa (N24), which existed in the olfactory system but not in the telencephalon, as a single neutral protein spot in masu salmon.

    Effects of activator on masticatory muscle activity during daytime and sleep (2003)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Science Ltd

    Notes: summary  The purpose of this study was to investigate masticatory muscle activity with and without the use of an activator during daytime and sleep, and further to focus on the changes in muscle activity produced by the daytime use. The subjects in this study were 10 healthy males (mean age: 27·6 years). A portable electromyogram (EMG) recording device was used to record the activity from the right temporal, masseter and digastric muscles. After recording, the integrated EMG values (µV s) were measured. The muscle activity was lower during sleep than during daytime, irrespective of the use of the activator. In sleep-time, temporal and digastric muscle activity was significantly decreased, although masseter muscle activity presented no significant differences. With the activator in use, the digastric muscle activity tended to increase in comparison with the elevator muscles during daytime and sleep. Although the activity of both elevator muscles was diminished by use of the activator during sleep in all subjects, some subjects showed an increase during daytime. These results suggested that the activator should be used, if possible, not only during sleep, but also during daytime and clenched on consciously to obtain the adaptation and development of the masticatory muscles for the ‘re-training of the muscles’ at a new favourable mandibular position.

    Notes: summary  This study was designed to investigate the nature of masticatory muscle activity and the balance in the bilateral symmetry of the masticatory muscle activity in jaw deformity patients. Fifteen patients (19·9 ± 5·3 years) with lateral shift of the mandible caused by transverse craniofacial deformity and 15 controls (28·6 ± 1·9 years) were used as the subjects in this study. Surface electromyographic (EMG) activities were recorded from the bilateral masseter and anterior temporal muscles during daytime (142 min, including mealtime) and sleep (142 min). The averaged rectified EMG values were normalized with reference to the EMG amplitude induced by a 98-N bite force. Bilateral symmetry of masseter and anterior temporal muscle activities was examined using an asymmetry index (AI) for both the controls and the patients. The normalized activities of the masseter and anterior temporal muscles during normal daily activities were lower in patients than in the controls. Asymmetry indices in patients were significantly greater during usual daytime activities and sleep for the anterior temporal muscle and significantly smaller during sleep for the masseter muscle as compared with the controls. The results show that masticatory muscle activity is lower in these jaw deformity patients in association with more prominent asymmetry of anterior temporal muscle activity than in the controls. It is suggested that these findings are highly relevant to occlusal interference and instability because of malocclusion and lateral mandibular deviation.

    Notes: The purpose of this study was to investigate the nature of fatigue and recovery of masticatory and neck muscles and the differences between sexes in normal subjects during experimentally induced loading. Subjects consisted of eight males (mean age: 27·6 years) and eight females (mean age: 24·2 years) selected from the volunteers in the Faculty of Dentistry, Hiroshima University. The inclusion criteria for the subjects were as follows: (1) good general health, (2) normal horizontal and vertical skeletal relationships, (3) no severe malocclusions and (4) no complaints of temporomandibular disorders. Each subject was requested to bite an occlusal-force meter with 98, 196 and 294 N forces on the first molar region per side for 45 s. Activities of the masseter and sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscles were recorded during these performances. Fatigue and recovery ratios were calculated with mean power frequency of power spectrum using a fast Fourier transform algorithm. Significant differences in the fatigue ratios between both sexes were found for the masseter muscle with 98, 196 and 294 N bite forces. Meanwhile, the SCM presented a significant difference between both sexes only at 98 N biting. Significant differences in the recovery ratios between both sexes were more prominent in the masseter muscle than in the SCM. These results suggest that the differences in muscle endurance between sexes may have some association with higher susceptibility of craniomandibular disorders in females than in males.

    Notes: Changes in size and shape of the craniofacial skeleton during growth may be related to the masticatory muscle function in daily life. The purpose of this study was to measure the masseter muscle activity during the whole day in children and to investigate the differences between children and young adults. Fifteen children (7·8–13·0 years of age) and 30 young adults (20·3–34·7 years of age), who had acceptable occlusions without any remarkable skeletal discrepancy or temporomandibular disorder, were used as the subjects. In both children and young adults, most high-amplitude bursts of masseter muscle appeared mainly during mealtime, whereas a substantially larger number of low-amplitude ones were widely distributed throughout the whole day. The number and total duration of bursts of masseter muscle activity during the whole day was greater in children than in young adults, although significant differences were not found between the sexes. During daytime and sleep, both the number and total duration of bursts were greater in children. During mealtime, no significant differences in the number of bursts were found between children and young adults, however, the duration of bursts tended to be longer in children. It is concluded that the masseter muscle activity during the whole day is greater in children than in young adults.

    Association between nasal respiratory obstruction and vertical mandibular position (2004)

    Notes: summary  Vertical mandibular position is considered to have an effect on the patency of the upper airway, because mouth opening is associated with a backward and downward displacement of the mandible and tongue. This study was conducted to investigate the nature of mandibular displacement at rest and to determine whether or not different respiration modes and body postures influence the mandibular position. The mandibular position was measured by use of a newly developed system with magnets and magnetic sensors placed on the upper and lower first molars, respectively. Vertical mandibular position was significantly affected by the degree of nasal airway obstruction. The proportion of the duration of mouth opening from 0 to 2.5 mm was about 80% in the sitting and lateral recumbent positions and 55% in the supine position. The amount and duration of vertical mandibular displacement were thus significantly increased by experimentally induced nasal respiratory obstruction. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that the amount and duration of mouth opening were significantly greater in the supine posture than in the sitting and lateral recumbent positions. It is thus shown that nasal respiratory disturbance may be a key determinant for mouth opening and breathing and the resultant vertical mandibular displacement.
