    Notes: Summary Neurons that project to the spinal cord were located in the mesencephalic reticular formation outside the interstitial nucleus of Cajal in cerebellectomized cats under chloralose anesthesia. Of these neurons 40% responded only at C1 (reticulospinal N cells) and the remaining 60% responded at C4 also (reticulospinal D cells). Conduction velocities of N cells were significantly slower than those of D cells. N cells and D cells responded similarly to stimulation of the whole vestibular nerves and vestibular nuclei. However, they differ in semicircular canal inputs; N cells were more responsive to canal stimulation. Comparison of properties between mesencephalic reticulospinal and interstitiospinal neurons (Fukushima et al. 1980) showed that many reticulospinal and interstitiospinal neurons have similar properties, suggesting that functionally similar neurons may be found distributed over more than one anatomically defined cell group.

    Notes: Summary Interstitiospinal neurons were activated by antidromic stimulation of the spinal cord ventromedial funiculus at C1 and C4 in cerebellectomized cats under chlor alose anesthesia. Neurons responding only to C1 were classified as N cells and those responding both to C1 and C4 were classified as D cells, as in previous experiments (Fukushima et al. 1980a). Vestibular branching interstitiospinal and reticulospinal neurons were also identified as in the previous experiments. Stimulation of the ipsilateral pericruciate cortex evoked firing in 31% of N cells, 41% of D cells and 35% of vestibular branching neurons, while stimulation of the contralateral cortex excited 6% of N cells, 29% of D cells and 14% of vestibular branching neurons. Response latencies ranged from 2 to 15 ms after the effective pulse. By measuring the thresholds of activation of these neurons while changing the depth of the stimulating electrodes, and by mapping the cortical areas, it was shown that the lowest threshold areas were in the frontal eye fields and the anterior sigmoid gyrus near the presylvian sulcus (Area 6). Stimulation of the latter area often evoked neck or shoulder muscle contraction. Stimulation in the deep layers of the ipsilateral superior colliculus evoked firing in about 20% of interstitiospinal neurons and about 42% of vestibular branching neurons, with typical latencies 2–3 ms after the effective pulse, while stimulation of the contralateral superior colliculus was rarely effective. N cells and D cells responded similarly. Thresholds for activation were high in the intermediate tectal layers and declined as the electrodes entered the underlying tegmentum. This suggests that the superior colliculus is not the main source of synaptic inputs to these neurons. Low threshold points were found above the deep fiber layer when stimulating electrodes were inserted into the pretectum. Stimulation of the C2 biventer cervicis nerve excited about 8% of N cells, 18% of D cells, and 15% of vestibular branching neurons bilaterally with typical latencies around 10 ms. Similar results were obtained when C2 splenius nerves were stimulated. The fibers responsible for such excitation are probably group II, since stimuli stronger than 1.8 times threshold of the lowest threshold fibers were needed to evoke excitation. Response decrement was often observed when stimuli were repeated at 1/s, while no such decrement was observed at the rate of 1/3 s. When the convergence of cortical and labyrinthine excitatory inputs was studied, 36% of interstitiospinal neurons received single inputs either from the pericruciate cortex or from the labyrinth, 22% of neurons received convergent excitation from both and the remaining 42% did not respond to either stimulus. Although vestibular branching neurons rarely received labyrinthine inputs, they frequently showed convergence of excitation to stimulation of the frontal cortex, superior colliculus and vestibular nuclei.

    Vestibular responses and branching of interstitiospinal neurons (1980)

    Notes: Summary 1. Interstitiospinal neurons were activated by antidromic stimulation of the ventromedial funiculus of the spinal cord at C1 and C4 in cerebellectomized cats under chloralose anesthesia. 46% of these neurons responded only at C1 (N cells) and the remaining 54% responded at C4 also (D cells). There is no topographical difference in the location of N and D cells. Conduction velocities of N cells were significantly slower than those of D cells. 2. Stimulation of the contralateral whole vestibular nerve evoked firing of 31% of both N and D cells; some responded early enough to suggest disynaptic connections, many responded late. Stimulation of the ipsilateral whole vestibular nerve evoked firing of several cells, one spontaneously discharging D cell was inhibited. 3. Stimulation of the contralateral individual semicircular canal nerves evoked firing of 33% of N cells and 13% of D cells. Most of these responses were late. N cells responded not only to the vertical canals but also to the horizontal canal, whereas D cells responded to the horizontal canal, but seldom to the vertical ones. Most canal responding neurons received specific input, only two N cells received convergent input from both the anterior and horizontal canals. Stimulation of the ipsilateral canals did not evoke excitation of any cells tested; one D cell was inhibited by stimulation of the horizontal canal nerve. 4. Stimulation of the rostral medial vestibular nucleus evoked characteristic negative field potentials centered in the contralateral interstitial nucleus of Cajal (INC). Approximately 60% of both N and D cells received excitation from the contralateral vestibular nuclei. About 17% of these responding neurons received monosynaptic excitation, most frequently from the rostral medial nucleus. Stimulation of the ipsilateral vestibular nuclei evoked firing of 12% of both N and D cells. 5. Twenty-nine neurons were fired antidromically by weak stimuli applied to the ipsilateral vestibular nuclei. Twenty-seven of the 29 were activated only from C1 and were found in the INC (10 cells) and in the reticular formation dorsal to the INC (19 cells). Measurement of the spread of the effect of stimulus current and comparison of latencies to stimulation of the vestibular nuclei and C1 indicated that these neurons have axon collaterals going to the ipsilateral vestibular nuclei. Only one of them received excitation from the contralateral posterior canal, others did not respond to the labyrinth. Some were activated by stimulation of the vestibular nuclei.

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary To investigate the effects of the composition and structure on the gelation of tissue conditioners, we measured gelation time with an oscillating rheometer. Also, the plasticizer factor was determined using linear multiple regression equations with the dependent variable of gelation time and the independent variables of molecular weight, molar volume, solubility parameter and viscosity of plasticizers. The results obtained were (i) gelation time decreased as the average particle size of poly-ethyl-methacrylate was decreased and its weight average molecular weight increased; (ii) gelation time decreased as ethanol content in the liquid increased. It varied depending on the type of plasticizer; (iii) it was suggested that gelation time was explained by linear multiple regression equations with independent variable of molar volume, solubility parameter and viscosity of plasticizer. In particular, the most influential factor was suggested to be molar volume.

    Initial physics achievements of large helical device experiments : The 40th annual meeting of the division of plasma physics of the american physical society (1999)

    Notes: The Large Helical Device (LHD) experiments [O. Motojima, et al., Proceedings, 16th Conference on Fusion Energy, Montreal, 1996 (International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna, 1997), Vol. 3, p. 437] have started this year after a successful eight-year construction and test period of the fully superconducting facility. LHD investigates a variety of physics issues on large scale heliotron plasmas (R=3.9 m, a=0.6 m), which stimulates efforts to explore currentless and disruption-free steady plasmas under an optimized configuration. A magnetic field mapping has demonstrated the nested and healthy structure of magnetic surfaces, which indicates the successful completion of the physical design and the effectiveness of engineering quality control during the fabrication. Heating by 3 MW of neutral beam injection (NBI) has produced plasmas with a fusion triple product of 8×1018 keV m−3 s at a magnetic field of 1.5 T. An electron temperature of 1.5 keV and an ion temperature of 1.4 keV have been achieved. The maximum stored energy has reached 0.22 MJ, which corresponds to 〈β〉=0.7%, with neither unexpected confinement deterioration nor visible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) instabilities. Energy confinement times, reaching 0.17 s at the maximum, have shown a trend similar to the present scaling law derived from the existing medium sized helical devices, but enhanced by 50%. The knowledge on transport, MHD, divertor, and long pulse operation, etc., are now rapidly increasing, which implies the successful progress of physics experiments on helical currentless-toroidal plasmas. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have found the effects of HgTe layers on dislocations of (111)B HgCdTe layers grown on Si substrates by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy. The dislocations in HgCdTe layers were reduced by inserting thin HgTe layers between HgCdTe and CdTe buffer layers. Using this method, the dislocation density of 2.3×106 cm−2 was obtained, which is less than quarter that of HgCdTe layers without HgTe. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.
