    Notes: Summary Dopamine-β-hydroxylase (DBH) immunohistochemistry was used to demonstrate the noradrenergic fibers and terminals in the anterior column of the rat lumbosacral spinal segments. PAP-positive varicose fibers were widely distributed in the gray matter with preferential accumulation in the nuclear regions containing motoneurons involved in the contraction of perineal striated muscles. Unmyelinated DBH fibers were composed of nodular enlargements (varicosities, 0.4–3.0 μm in diameter) and very fine, short intervals (intervaricose segments, 0.1–0.2 μm in diameter and 1.0–4.0 μm in length). DBH-positive dense products were electron microscopically often confined within small granular particles and less frequently within large granules. Additionally, in order to characterize the innervation pattern of noradrenergic fibers on dendritic bundles organized in the motoneuronal pools innervating the pelvic small muscles, semi-quantitative analysis was done in the area of the dorsolateral nucleus endowed with especially well-developed dendritic bundles. DBH terminals contacting with unreactive dendrites were more common (67.9%) than those with neuronal somata (15.1%), and the remainder (17%) had no contacts with surrounding neuronal elements. Furthermore, specialized synaptic formations were observed in only 20.1% of these nodules. The results suggest that bulbospinal descending noradrenergic neuron systems influence the functioning of pelvic muscles principally via the neuronal contacts with dendritic bundles in the spinal cord.

    Notes: Summary The distribution of serotonin-containing nerve fibers in the corpus striatum of the rat, cat and monkey was studied with modified peroxidase-antiperoxidase method using serotonin antiserum without any pretreatment. In the neostriatum (caudate nucleus and putamen) of all mammalian species investigated, the immunoreactive fibers were distinct varicose fibers in a fine network. The concentration of these fibers was high in the ventral, medial and caudal neostriatum. Especially in the area bounded by the globus pallidus, serotonin fibers were abundant and compactly arranged along the nucleus. In this area of the monkey, a few thick fibers (tract fibers) were intermingled; they ran along the lateral medullary lamina. Such tract fibers were also observed outside the medial medullary lamina and in the central portion of the medial pallidal segment. The paleostriatum (globus pallidus and entopeduncular nucleus) of the rat and cat as well as the medial pallidal segment of the monkey was diffusely innervated with serotonin fibers composed of numerous varicosities and fine intervaricose segments, while in the lateral pallidal segment of the monkey, the distribution of fibers was scantly and partial. Our results hint at the morphological basis of the serotonergic regulation of the extrapyramidal system in mammals.

    Notes: Summary The distribution of serotonin-containing nerve fibers in the substantia nigra of the rat, cat and monkey was studied with a highly sensitive peroxidase-antiperoxidase immunohistochemical method. Serotonin fibers in the substantia nigra of all species consisted of fine varicose fibers and formed a fine network. In the zona compacta of all species, serotonin fibers were sparsely distributed. In the zone reticularis of the rat and cat, these fibers were densely distributed and their distributional pattern was almost uniform, while in the monkey such fibers were unevenly distributed and high and low dense areas were intermingled. In the pars lateralis of all species, serotonin fibers were diffusely distributed, and the distributional density was much higher in the cat and monkey than in the rat. Immunoelectron-microscopic studies further revealed that a majority of the labeled varicosities in the rat substantia nigra were in close apposition to peridendritic axon terminals and were also free in the neuropil; occasionally they exhibited symmetrical synapses of “en passant” type with non-immunoreactive dendrites or somata. Our results support a functional significance of serotonergic regulation of the substantia nigra in mammals.

    Effect of space angle on constriction resistance and contact resistance for a point contact (1985)

    Notes: It can generally be considered that an actual contact makes an angle with the extension of the contact surface because the tip of a contact element is convex in shape (macroscopically) and has surface roughness (microscopically). The effect of this angle on constriction resistance and contact resistance for a point contact is analyzed theoretically by solving Laplace's equation subject to boundary conditions determined by a modeled morphology of the contact. The analysis leads to the modified formulas for the constriction resistance and the contact resistance, which show that the effect cannot always be neglected and that the contact model with space angle is useful.

    Notes: Summary Masked indoleamine cells (MICS) in the area postrema and adjacent areas in the rat were immunohistochemically studied (the peroxidase-antiperoxidase method) using a serotonin antiserum. After pretreatment with nialamide (200–300 mg/kg), immunoreactive MICS could be observed. They were small cells (about 12 μm in diameter) with several processes and were distributed in nearly all parts of the area postrema and also in the nucleus tructus solitarii. Following a single intraventricular injection of 75 μg 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine, the immunoreactivity of these cells conspicuously decreased for several days. The submicroscopical structure of the cells was investigated using immunoelectron microscopy. Immunoreactive products were observed in the cytoplasm as particles with a diameter of 25–40 nm and high electron density, but these were not found in the nucleus or cell organelles.

    Notes: Summary The retrograde fluorescence tracer, True Blue (TB), was injected into the forebrain septal area of neonatal rats. After 3 to 6 days the brains of these animals were carefully removed and placed in ice-cold sterilized physiological saline containing 1% glucose. Under the surgical microscope, one or two pairs of mesencephalic tissue samples, each containing a dorsal raphe nucleus, were punched out and transplanted into the third ventricle of a 5,6-DHT-pretreated adult rat. One month after transplantation, all animals were perfused and their brains sectioned using a cryostat. The sections were examined using a fluorescence microscope, and then processed for serotonin immunohistochemistry. The grafts were found to be successfully implanted and connected with the middle portion of the third ventricle. Four types of neurons, i.e., TB-labeled, serotonin-labeled, both TB-and serotonin-labeled, and non-labeled neurons, were detected in the grafts. This double-labeling method is considered to be a useful technique in characterizing the neurons in grafts which consist of a heterogeneous cell population.

    Notes: Summary To date, there have been few immunohistochemical investigations of atrial natriuretic polypeptide (ANP) in human cardiac tissue, especially the ventricles. In this study, myocardial tissue was obtained from two sources: the bilateral atria and ventricles at autopsy; and biopsy tissues from the right auricle and left ventricle of a patient with myocardial infarction undergoing surgery. These tissues were examined by the avidin-biotin immunoperoxidase technique using three kinds of primary ANP-antibodies. ANP-immunoreactivity was observed in the perinuclear region of myocytes of all tissues examined. The intensity of the reaction was stronger in atrial tissue, weaker in ventricular tissue. In the later tissue, the positive-staining myocytes were not part of the pulse-conducting system. Although the tissues we studied were not obtained from normal hearts, our data demonstrates that ANP-reactivity can be detected in ventricular myocytes outside the pulse-conducting system.

    Notes: Summary Using the immunoperoxidase technique in conjunction with specific antisera to α-atrial natriuretic polypeptide (α-ANP), it was shown that immunoreactive cell bodies and varicose fibers are widely distributed throughout the rat brain. The highest concentrations of α-ANP-containing neuronal cell bodies and fibers were found in the hypothalamus and septum. This result confirms the radioimmunological determination of α-ANP immunoreactivity in the rat brain.

    Notes: Summary A newly modified and improved immunohistochemical method was devised for the demonstration of the serotonin neuron system in the central nervous system of the rabbit using serotonin antibody obtained by the immunization of rabbits, i.e., the biotinylation of serotonin antibodies, and the application of the two-step avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex (ABC) method. Using this technique, high background staining and nonspecific reactions were avoided, and extremely clear preparations were produced. The serotonin neurons of rabbit brain, which have a Golgi-like appearance, were followed to the fine terminals. This technique were also applied for electron microscopy, and satisfactory results concerning the submicroscopical distribution of serotonin were obtained.
