    Notes: —Male Wistar rats aged 24 days were divided into three groups. Two groups were given a high protein (250 g/kg casein) and a low protein (30 g/kg casein) diet respectively. The third group was given an amount of the high protein diet containing the same amount of energy as that consumed by the low protein diet rats. The plasma of the animals on low protein contained 20% of the concentration of tryptophan of animals on the other two diets. In these animals the concentration of tryptophan was reduced in the forebrain, cerebellum and brain stem, and the concentrations of 5-HT and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid were reduced in the forebrain and brain stem. The low protein diet decreased the total uptake of l-[G-3H]tryptophan into the brain and its incorporation into brain protein. Plasma insulin concentrations were reduced in the low protein and ‘restricted high protein’ animals and the plasma corticosterone concentration was raised in the low protein animals. Exogenous insulin did not raise the plasma tryptophan concentration in the low protein animals but it increased the uptake of l-[G-3H]tryptophan into the brain and its incorporation into protein. Rehabilitation for 7 days restored the plasma and brain tryptophan concentrations and those of brain 5-HT and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid to control values.

    THE EFFECT OF GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT ON THE PHOSPHOLIPIDS OF THE HUMAN BRAIN (1977)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd

    Notes: Abstract— The phospholipid content and composition of the different regions of the developing human brain were studied. Brains from 25 fetuses and 9 infants, aged 13 weeks gestation to 26 months, were analysed. The concentration of total lipid-P was highest in the brain stem and lowest in the cerebellum at any age. Compared with the forebrain or brain stem, the cerebellum had a sharp phospholipid growth spurt between 3 months before and 6 months after birth. Before birth, the phospholipid pattern was similar in each part of the brain, with choline phosphoglycerides as the major phospholipid. After birth, the pattern in the brain stem changed further and ethanolamine phosphoglycerides became the dominant phospholipid, while in the other two there was little change. In all parts of the brain the proportion of sphingomyelin increased. The relative proportion of serine and inositol phosphoglycerides remained almost constant throughout the whole period of development. The possible significances of the changes in the phospholipids in neurological development are discussed.

    EFFECT OF DEVELOPMENT ON THE GANGLIOSIDES OF HUMAN BRAIN (1977)

    Notes: Abstract— The ganglioside content and composition of brains from twenty-five human fetuses, three new-born babies and ten children, were studied. The ages ranged from 13 weeks gestation to 26 months postpartum. Each brain was divided into forebrain. cerebellum and brain stem. The concentration of total gangliosides rose to a plateau at different stages of development in the different parts, whereas the total amount reached a constant value at 9 months of age in each part. The developmental profile of individual gangliosides differed in the different parts of the brain. Thus, in the forebrain GD1a. and in the cerebellum GD1a rose to become the major gangliosides. The brain stem showed little change in its ganglioside pattern during the developmental period studied. The possible significance of these charges in the gangliosides during development is discussed.

    POLYAMINES OF THE HUMAN BRAIN DURING NORMAL FETAL AND POSTNATAL GROWTH AND DURING POSTNATAL MALNUTRITION (1977)

    Notes: Abstract— The concentrations of the polyamines and putrescine were measured in the brains of human infants during fetal and early postnatal development. The concentrations of the amines were also measured in the brains of children who were malnourished during the first 2 years of life. In the brains of the adequately-nourished infants there were differences in the developmental profiles of the amines between different regions of the brain, and the changes in polyamine concentrations paralleled changes in nucleic acid accumulation. The concentration of putrescine was much higher than that of the polyamines in all regions of the brain, and in the brain stem there were marked increases in putrescine concentration at the time of most rapid rate of myelination. Putrescine also increased markedly in the forebrain at the time of neuroblast multiplication in the fetus. In children malnourished during the first year of life there were reductions in the concentrations of spermidine and putrescine in the forebrain and brainstem, but spermine was unaffected. Malnutrition had no effect on the concentration of any of the amines in the cerebellum.
