    Notes: [Auszug] The X-ray powder diffraction pattern of the isolated lung dust does not show any additional lines except those of quartz which can be traced in every human lung. A semiquantitative X-ray fluorescence analysis showed the presence of the following elements (in order of decreasing frequency): cerium, ...

    Notes: Summary The submicroscopic morphology of freeze-etched “cellular adhesions” in rat hepatocytes is reported. In contrast to the reticulated “tight junctions” which line the bile capillaries, the junctional complexes of the described type appear as ovally or irregularly shaped patches. They are randomly distributed over the cell surface with the exception of the villous biliary and sinusoidal surface. In tangential fractures hepatocellular adhesions reveal one single layer of densely packed globular particles measuring 85–95 Å in diameter. These particles are interpreted as a product of both the plasma membranes involved in the complex formation. They also are supposed to be identical with the subunits demonstrated by Benedetti and Emmelot (1968) in liver cell membranes and more recently by Brightman and Reese (1969) in the “gap junctions” of vertebrate brain cells. Based on the findings, a hypothetical model of the adhesional complex-architecture is presented. The model may well explain the special task of this type of cellular adhesion which is to permit the ion flow from one cell to the other.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Der Pecten oculi des Haushuhns wurde licht-, scanning- und transmissions-elektronenmikroskopisch sowie mit der Gefrierätz-Technik unter besonderer Berücksichtigung seiner Kapillarstruktur untersucht. Die Kapillaren bilden ausgedehnte anastomosierende Netze. Ihre Endothelzellen besitzen sowohl apikal (luminal) als auch basal längsorientierte Mikrofalten. Es wird angenommen, daß die Ausbildung der apikalen endothelialen Oberflächendifferenzierung haemodynamisch bedingt ist. Hierbei wird gleichzeitig ausreichend Platz für membrangebundene Fermente geschaffen, die für aktive energie-verbrauchende transzelluläre Transportprozesse benötigt werden. Die Gefrierätzbefunde lassen unterschiedlich strukturierte Membranoberflächen an den Mikrofalten erkennen, die im Zusammenhang mit Transportfunktionen der Kapillarendothelzellen des Pectenoculi diskutiert werden. Vermutlich spielt der Pecten eine wichtige Rolle für die Ernährung von Retina und Glaskörper.
    Notes: Summary The pecten oculi of the domestic chicken was examined with light, scanning and transmission electron microscopy and with freeze-etching techniques. Particular attention has been given to the capillary structure. The capillaries form an extensive anastomotic network. Their endothelial cells have apical (luminal), as well as basal, longitudinally oriented microfolds. It is assumed that the formation of apical differentiations of the endothelial surface is due to haemodynamic influences. Thus, sufficient surface area for membrane bound enzymes is achieved. These enzymes are necessary for active transcellular transport processes that require energy. In freeze-etched material, two different structures of the membrane surface of microfolds can be recognized. These results are discussed in relation to transport functions through capillary endothelial cells of the pecten. It is assumed that the pecten plays an important role in the nourishment of the retina and vitreous body.
