    Notes: Summary Stimulation of the vestibular nerve induced EPSPs monosynaptically in 29% of cat's Deiters neurones sampled on the ipsilateral side. These EPSPs started with latencies of 0.6–1.0 msec, rose sharply with a summit time of 0.5 msec and decayed exponentially with a time constant of 0.9–1.7 msec. Then amplitudes were graded finely according to the intensity of the vestibular nerve stimulation, the maximal size being 5–10 mV. The unitary EPSPs, evoked by vestibular nerve stimulation at juxta-threshold intensity or appearing spontaneously, were as small as 0.2–0.3 mV in amplitude. Those neurones monosynaptically activated by vestibular nerve volleys were located in the ventral portion of the nucleus of Deiters, in agreement with histological data. The vestibular nerve impulses also produced delayed EPSPs with latencies of 1.0–1.8 msec, presumably disynaptically. They occurred in many Deiters neurones located not only ventrally but also dorsally. Even later EPSPs often were superposed on the monosynaptic EPSPs with latencies of 1.9–2.2 msec. There is evidence that they were caused by repetitive discharges in the vestibular nerve fibres which occur in response to single shock stimulation of the vestibular nerve. IPSPs were produced only polysynaptically in some Deiters neurones in association with the monosynaptic EPSPs.

    Cerebellar-evoked disinhibition in dorsal deiters neurones (1968)

    Notes: Summary Following the stimulation of cerebellar cortex, a slow depolarization developed in the neurones which were impaled with microelectrodes in the dorsal portion of the nucleus of Deiters. Characteristically, it was produced bilaterally from a wide area of the culmen and, with double shock stimulation at brief intervals, showed a marked potentiation, often in association with a later depression. After repetitive stimulation of the cerebellar cortex the slow depolarization was prolonged for a period of many seconds. Even stimulation of the spinal cord caused similar depolarization. By intracellular injection of currents and ions, the depolarization was shown to be disinhibition, i. e., removal of background inhibition. Accordingly, it was confirmed that there was a steady production of IPSPs in dorsal Deiters neurones, which diminished during the phase of disinhibition. As the possible source of these background IPSPs, the Purkinje cell axons within the nucleus of Deiters were found to be discharging rhythmically at a rate of 20–90/sec, and in fact they were depressed very effectively after cerebellar stimulation. At the same time, volleys along Purkinje cell axons produced by a testing cerebellar stimulation also were diminished, indicating a depression in the excitability of Purkinje cells.

    Notes: Summary In anaesthetized cats, electric pulse stimuli were applied at various lateralities to the anterior lobe of the cerebellum. In dorsal Deiters neurones delayed IPSPs with latencies of 3–6 msec were evoked from the entire area of the culmen including the paravermis bilaterally. The delayed IPSPs had a summit time of about 2 msec and a duration of about 7 msec. They showed a marked temporal facilitation and subsequent depression with double shock stimulation. Corticovestibular fibers were penetrated within the nucleus of Deiters and showed delayed, labile responses to cortical stimulation, corresponding to the delayed IPSPs in Deiters neurones. During stimulation of the anterior lobe at any laterality, field potentials recorded in the cerebellar cortex further revealed that there was activation, presumably through axon collaterals of mossy fibers, of granule cells and subsequently of Purkinje cells in the vermal cortex. Cortical events exhibited a prominent temporal facilitation and subsequent depression, in parallel with that observed for the delayed IPSPs in Deiters neurones. The delayed IPSPs in Deiters neurones arising from a wide area of the cerebellar cortex thus were attributed to activation through mossy fiber-granule cell pathway of Purkinje cells of the corticovestibular projection.

    Notes: Summary By recording intracellularly from Deiters neurones of cats, there was a survey of those cerebellar areas that, when stimulated, produced inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (IPSPs) monosynaptically in Deiters neurones. The monosynaptic inhibitory area expanded longitudinally mainly along the ipsilateral vermal cortex of the anterior lobe. The ipsilateral cortex of the posterior lobe was also effective in inhibiting Deiters neurones though less prominently than the anterior lobe. The inhibitory fibers could be stimulated in the white matter of the cerebellum, predominantly in the ipsilateral side at rostral regions of nuclei fastigii and interpositus. It was further shown that the monosynaptic inhibition from the anterior and posterior lobes occurs chiefly in the dorsal portion of Deiters nucleus. Since in both the cerebellum and Deiters nucleus the spatial pattern of distribution of the inhibitory fibers conforms to that of the corticovestibular fibers as histologically defined, the experimental findings are in accord with the hypothesis that the cerebellar Purkinje cells are inhibitory in nature.

    Notes: Summary When recording intracellularly from cat's Deiters neurones, stimulation of the anterior lobe of the cerebellar cortex produced excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) monosynaptically, in addition to the inhibitory ones (IPSPs) that were identified previously as being produced via Purkinje cell axons. The EPSPs were induced bilaterally from a wide area of the anterior and posterior lobes of the cerebellum, in contrast to the IPSPs that were evoked only ipsilaterally, mainly from the vermal cortex. The latency of the EPSPs was slightly, but significantly, shorter than that of the IPSPs. The presynaptic impulses responsible for these EPSPs were represented by the discrete field potentials and also by unit spikes of individual fibres. The pathway for these EPSPs and presynaptic impulses was pursued by testing their interference, in the manner of impulse collision and refractoriness, with those induced from various spots within or outside the cerebellum. It is found that the excitatory fibres for Deiters neurones extend transversely, and probably longitudinally too, over the culmen and pass out of the cerebellum through cerebellar peduncles. The major portion of them appears to originate from the medulla and a minority from the spinal cord. It is postulated that cerebellar afferents from these structures have synapses with Deiters neurones via their collateral branches, through which a kind of axon reflex occurs to Deiters neurones during stimulation of the cerebellar cortex.

    Notes: Summary The organization of the cerebellar, vestibular and spinal inputs to the lateral and medial vestibulospinal tract (LVST and MVST) cells was studied in anaesthetized rabbits. Synaptic actions of these inputs were determined by recording postsynaptic potentials intracellularly and also unit spike discharges extracellularly from a number of LVST and MVST cells. As reported previously in cats, inhibition was evoked very frequently from the vermal cortex of the cerebellar anterior lobe and less frequently from that of the posterior lobe. However, no such inhibition was derived from the flocculus. The cerebellar inhibition was exerted upon both LVST and MVST cells, whether they received monosynaptic activation from the primary vestibular afferents (second-order) or not and whether they conducted impulses fast or slowly. However, the inhibition was frequently absent in “slow” “second-order” MVST cells. The vast majority of LVST and MVST cells received an excitatory input from the spinocerebellar afferents ascending the funiculus posterolateralis. This input was particularly prominent from the upper cervical cord. The spinal excitation thus obtained occurred in close connection with the cerebellar inhibition. Hence, it appears that the cerebellar vermis receives the spinal signals that drive LVST and MVST cells and in turn sends out inhibitory signals to adjust the reflex activity in these cells.

    Notes: Molecular motions in a series of linear aliphatic polyesters [poly(ethylene adipate), poly(ethylene sebacate), poly(hexamethylene sebacate), and poly(decamethylene 1,16-hexadecanedicarboxylate)] were studied by dielectric measurements. Two loss maxima were observed for each polymer in the temperature range from -196 to about 60°C and in the frequency range from 110 to 105 Hz. The loss maxima of these polyesters, lying between -17 and -38°C at 110 Hz (β-relaxation), are due to the micro-Brownian motions of amorphous main chains. It was found that these β-relaxations are well described by the WLF equation. The loss maxima in the range from -88 to -109°C at 110 Hz (γ-relaxation), are attributed both to local mode motions of main chains in the amorphous region and to motions of the polar groups involved at the chain ends. For the β-relaxation, no simple relation between the methylene sequence length and the loss peak temperature was found. Furthermore, as the methylene sequence length decreased, the effective dipole moment of the polyesters increased gradually. These facts were explained in terms of interchain dipole attraction.

    The relationship between chemical structure and viscoelastic properties of linear aliphatic polyesters (1978)

    Notes: The effects of Chemical structure on the molecular motions in linear aliphatic polyesters have been investigated with a free-oscillation torsion pendulum. Broad-line NMR provided supplementary information. In the γ relaxation which corresponds to the local-mode motions of main chains in the noncrystalline region, the polyesters which are composed of two methylene units in the diol part of the chemical repeat unit showed an extremely asymmetric loss curve with a relatively high-loss peak temperature compared with that of the other polyesters. In addition to the two relaxations (β,γ) which have been observed in earlier dielectric measurements, a new relaxation (α) was found on the high-temperature side of the glass transition of the polyesters. The α relaxation was assigned to molecular motions of methylene segments in the crystalline region. The α and β relaxations of the two-dimensional series are situated close to the temperatures found for other polyesters with rather long methylene sequence in the chemical repeat unit. The results were explained in terms of a difference on the chain mobility in the noncrystalline regions which may be related to the difference of chemical structure of the polyesters.

    Pulsed NMR observation of ultradrawn polypropylene (1983)

    Notes: Proton spin-spin relaxation times have been measured as a function of temperature for ultradrawn polypropylene with draw ratios λ up to 24. The three relaxation times T2a (the longest), T2i (intermediate), and T2c (the shortest), observed for all the samples, have been ascribed to the relaxations of the amorphous, constrained amorphous, and crystalline components, respectively. T2i and T2a, which reflect the changes in structure and mobility in the noncrystalline regions, decrease with increasing λ; T2i becomes saturated at λ 〉 9, whereas T2a shows a substantial decrease up to λ = 24. The continued decrease in T2a indicates that the constraint on the amorphous segments keeps increasing up to the highest λ. The associated mass fractions Fa, Fi, and Fc also change with λ. At λ 〈 9, the increasc in Fi with increasing λ is accompanied by a decrease in Fa, with Fc remaining unchanged. At higher λ, however, Fa is almost constant, and stepwise rises in Fc at about λ = 12 and 24 are accompanied by corresponding drops in Fi. It seems that, in this high draw ratio range, some of the taut molecules are fully extended and are in sufficiently good lateral register to transform into crystalline bridges. This conjecture is supported by the similarity in the λ dependence of Fc and the mass-fraction crystallinity obtained from the heat of fusion.
