    Notes: Summary Using an immunocytochemical method, we examined the immunological responses of adult mice to intracerebellar syngeneic and allogeneic fetal mouse brainstem transplants (embryonic days 12–14). Syngeneic grafts and major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-compatible and non-MHC-incompatible allogeneic grafts survived well, showing no histological signs of rejection even 6 months after transplantation, and with no expression of MHC antigens being observed in any of the grafts. However, most cases of both MHC- and non-MHC-incompatible allografts showed rejection responses, such as marked neovascularization, cellular infiltration and necrosis, two weeks to one month after transplantation. In animals showing rejection, Class I MHC antigens were found on grafted neuronal tissue. An increased number of reactive astrocytes was also observed in the grafts. High levels of Class I antigen expression and prominent gliosis correlated with vigorous cellular infiltration. A quantitative analysis of T cell subsets in the animals showing rejection revealed that the L3T4/Lyt-2 ratio was 1.02±0.21 (mean ± S.D.), indicating that helper/inducer and cytotoxic/suppressor T cells appeared equally in the rejection of MHC- and non-MHC-incompatible allografts. We consider that in these experiments, the brain was not completely an immunologically privileged site, and that MHC- and non-MHC-incompatible intraparenchymal neural transplants were not shielded from host immune surveillance.

    Notes: Abstract A nuclear analysis was carried out for a heavy ion-beam fusion reactor, HIBLIC. The analysis includes the target and chamber neutronics, time-dependent radiation damage in the first wall, and radiation streaming through beam ports. It is found that the reactor chamber is characterized by its high tritium breeding ratio, low radiation damage in the second wall, and low induced activity. To reduce the radiation damage in the superconducting, focusing magnets, tapering the beam ports along the direct line-of-sight component of the source neutron is necessary in the magnet regions and also in the collimator region.
