    Notes: Summary 1. There has been a comparative study of two kinds of inhibition in the cerebellar cortex: basket cell inhibition of Purkinje cells; and Golgi cell inhibition of granule cells. These inhibitory actions were assayed by the degree of inhibition of the potential waves that juxta-fastigial (J.F.) stimulation evoked in the granular or molecular layers: basket cell inhibition by the N1 wave generated by antidromic invasion of Purkinje cells; and Golgi cell inhibition of the N3 or P2 waves evoked by the mossy fibre volley in the molecular and granular layers respectively. 2. The Golgi cell inhibition produced by a parallel fibre volley (LOC stimulation) extended transversely for no more than 200 μ on either side of the narrow beam of the excited parallel fibres, whereas the spread of basket cell inhibition was much larger — to as far as 1 mm. 3. When activated by the on-beam LOC stimulation, the Golgi cell and the basket cell inhibition showed much the same threshold of the stimulation. The off-beam LOC stimulation produced only the basket cell inhibition which is in conformity with the different transverse distributions described in (2) above. 4. When evoked by J. F. or trans-folial (T. F.) stimulation, the Golgi cell inhibition had a much lower threshold than the basket cell inhibition. It is suggested that in part at least this is attributable to the direct synaptic connection from mossy fibres to Golgi cells. 5. The Golgi cell inhibition elicited by the LOC stimulation showed a relatively short time course, the maximum being attained by about 10 msec, after which there was an approximately exponential decrease so that the total duration was only about 100 msec. On the other hand, the basket cell inhibition had a much slower time course, maximum being attained at a latency of 20 to 40 msec, the total duration being even in excess of 200 msec. Suggestions are made with respect to the factors responsible for the slow time course of the basket cell inhibition.

    The profiles of physiological events produced by a parallel fibre volley in the cerebellar cortex (1966)

    Notes: Summary 1. Stimulation through concentric electrodes on the surface of a wide cerebellar folium was employed to set up a parallel fibre volley or beam. Serial recording of the field potential was made over a range of depths along microelectrode tracks arranged in a transverse plane across the folium in order to discover the action on Purkinje cells, both those that were on-beam for the parallel fibre volley and those at various distances off-beam. A juxta-fastigial electrode was carefully placed so that an applied stimulus could excite the axons of Purkinje cells distributed across the folium under investigation, the antidromic propagation of impulses thus obtained being utilized to test the effect of parallel fibre volleys upon Purkinje cells. 2. The observations were in accord with the two actions that a parallel fibre volley would be expected to exert on Purkinje cells: a direct excitatory action by the synapses made by parallel fibres with the spines of the Purkinje cell dendrites; an inhibitory action mediated by the stellate and basket cells that themselves are directly excited by the parallel fibre volley. 3. The excitatory synaptic action would result in the two types of responses that were restricted to the narrow zone and superficial location of the parallel fibre volley: active sinks formed by this excitatory synaptic action on the superficial dendrites of Purkinje cells would account for the observed depth profile of extra-cellular slow potentials, a superficial negative wave reversing to a deeper positive wave formed by passive sources on deeper dendrites; superficial synaptic excitation would also account for the facilitation of the propagation of antidromic impulses into the superficial dendrites. 4. The inhibitory synaptic action would result in the two types of responses that were widely dispersed transversely and in depth, far beyond the traject of the parallel fibre volley: a slow positive potential wave with a maximum at a depth usually of 300–400 μ; an inhibitory action on the antidromic invasion of Purkinje cells. The transverse profiles of these two presumed indices of inhibitory action on Purkinje cells apparently revealed that a basket cell may give inhibitory synapses up to 1000 μ laterally from the location of its soma and dendrites. 5. A description is given of the variants in the transverse profiles of the deeper positive waves and of inhibitory actions of a parallel fibre volley that presumably are mediated by basket cells and also by the superficial stellate cells. These physiological findings are correlated with the histologically determined distribution of synapses from a basket cell onto Purkinje cells.

    Notes: Abstract  Aseptically propagated regenerates were cultivated in a hydroponic apparatus, a phytotron or in the field, and their growth and littorine contents were investigated. No littorine was detected in aseptic regenerates cultured on solidified Murashige and Skoog medium, nor was it found in leaves under the three conditions tested. In roots, it was common features to all three conditions tested that littorine increased dramatically after transplantation from culture tubes and was a major alkaloid up to week 4; subsequently the littorine contents varied depending on the cultivation conditions. Roots cultivated in the field showed a marked thickening and rapid disappearance of littorine; those cultivated in the hydroponic apparatus were thin and maintained a high level of littorine for a long time. In a plant cultivated for 16 weeks in a pot, littorine content in the roots decreased with increasing root diameter.

    Notes: Abstract A hairy root clone (M8) of Atropa belladonna, producing high levels of tropane alkaloids, was established by transformation with Agrobacterium rhizogenes (MAFF 03-01724). Littorine, an intermediate of tropane alkaloids, was detected by high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in the alkaloid fraction of the hairy roots and identified by nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. Littorine was also detected in the non-transformed root culture of A. belladonna.

    Notes: Abstract Hairy roots of Coleus forskohlii were induced by infection with the Agrobacterium rhizogenes MAFF 03-01724 strain. Growth and forskolin production of two hairy root clones cultured in various liquid media were examined. Hairy root clone B9 grew well in woody plant liquid medium and showed a high forskolin yield (ca. 1.3 mg/ 100 ml flask) after 5 weeks of culture. The time course of growth and forskolin production of the clone B9 cultured in woody plant liquid medium was also examined. Rapid growth started at week 2 and continued until week 5. The highest forskolin yield (ca. 1.6 mg/100 ml flask) was obtained at week 5. Productivity was much higher than that previously reported.
