    Notes: Summary Lectin-binding sites of the human pituitary adenoma cells were examined by electron microscopy in correlation with their functional states. In this study used were 37 cases of the human pituitary adenomas which had been operated in our clinics from 1977 to 1979. They were divided into four groups: 13 cases of PRL-producing adenomas, nine of hGH-producing adenomas, three of ACTH-producing adenomas, and 12 of hormonal non-functioning adenomas. In parallel with the detection of the lectinbinding sites by means of the ferritin-labeling method, the basal levels of their secreting hormones were determined by the radioimmunoassay technique, and their producing hormones were characterized light microscopically by the immunocytochemical HRP-labeling technique. The present study clearly shows that the ferritinlabeled, lectin-binding sites of the human pituitary adenoma cells prefixed with aldehyde are different in number between PRL- or hGH-producing adenoma cells and non-functioning ones. Morphologically resemblin, non-functioning adenoma cells and mixed somatotrophic and lactotrophic adenoma cells are definitely distinguished from each other by the findings of the ferritin-labeled RCA-binding sites' distribution pattern. Lectins have been proved very useful to evaluate the membrane characteristics of the human pituitary adenoma cells in association with their functional states.

    Anterior sacral meningocele discovered by whole body computerized tomography (1981)
    Springer
    Acta neurochirurgica 59 (1981), S. 267-272

    Notes: Summary A case of anterior sacral meningocele which was clearly visualized on whole body computerized tomography is presented. Posterior surgical approach with ligation of the narrow communication between the sacral dural sac and the meningocele alleviated the subjective complaints of a feeling of abdominal distention and of dysuria. For the purpose of postoperative follow-up study, examination by whole body computerized tomography proved to be the best method of evaluating the size of the meningocele and also the state of neighbouring structures.

    Roles of subarachnoid blood clots and norepinephrine in cerebral vasospasm (1982)
    Springer
    Acta neurochirurgica 63 (1982), S. 277-280 
    Details

    Notes: Summary The content of norepinephrine (NE) in the ventricular, basal cisternal and lumbar cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was determined in 19 patients with ruptured cerebral aneurysms. The cisternal CSF in patients with vasospasm contained a significantly higher level of NE (0.246 ± 0.049 ng/ml) compared with those without vasospasm (0.075 ± 0.001 ng/ml) (p 〈 0.001). However, this increase is not considered to be high enough to constrict cerebral arteries, unless there is an increased NE-sensitivity in subarachnoid haemorrhage. Vascular responses to NE in vivo were then studied after reversing blood-induced prolonged vasospasm of the rabbit's basilar artery through a transclival approach as well as a newly developed basal cisternal irrigation model. However, NE in molar concentrations between 1 × 10−10 and 10−2 failed to produce further contraction of the artery. In conclusion, the increase in NE with vasospasm might be only a secondary phenomenon, and not a causative factor of vasospasm. Early removal of subarachnoid blood clots seemed to prevent the development of vasospasm.

    Notes: Summary Intracellular lectin (Con A)-binding sites of human pituitary adenoma were examined by electron microscopy using the horseradish-peroxidase (HRP)-labelling technique. In this study were used 16 cases of human pituitary adenomas operated on in our clinics between 1977 and 1981: they concluded 4 each of PRL-, GH-, ACTH-producing and hormonal non-functioning adenomas. In parallel with the detection of lectin-binding sites, basal levels of their secreting hormones were determined by the radioimmunoassay technique, and their producing hormones were characterized light microscopically by the immunocytochemical HRP-labelling technique. In the present study, for hormonal functioning adenoma cells, mature or large granules of each specific type of adenoma cells had no definite Con A-binding sites. On the other hand, immature or small secretory granules of RPL- or GH-producing adenoma cells showed a positive reaction with Con A. ACTH-producing adenomas so far examined revealed no definite binding sites. Some variable results were obtained concerning non-functioning adenomas. Lectins have been and will be very useful in the detection of different subtypes of adenomas in each specific group.

    Notes: Summary A peculiar ultrastructural change of the cytoplasmic membrane is described. It concerns selective destruction of the outer leaflet of the luminal side of the capillary endothelium in the white matter of the rat brain. 30 min and 3h after intracerebral injection of arachidonic acid (AA). The cristae of the mitochondria disappeared in the endothelium of many capillaries. These changes were observed mainly in the central part of brain edema, where the extracellular space was markedly widened. The possible mechanism whereby these changes developed is discussed.
