    Notes: Abstract The interaction of several cyclic ethers, poly(ethylene glycol dimethyl ether)s, nitriles, esters and ketones with lithium picrate in dioxane at 25°C was investigated by means of a competition method using cross-linked poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) as the insoluble ligand. The Langmuir-Klotz isotherm of LiPi binding to the PEO gel gave an apparent binding constant, K′, as a function of the concentration of added ligand. Plots of 1/K′ vs. the ligand concentration then yielded the formation constant, K L , of the ligand complex with LiPi. The results demonstrate that in dioxane one ligand molecule binds to LiPi. While there is some dependence on the Gutmann donicity number of the respective ligands, steric factors often play a dominant role in determining the value of K L . The results were compared with complexation data obtained on similar systems but by different methods.

    Notes: Abstract Enamel-producing cells (ameloblasts) pass through several phenotypic and functional stages during enamel formation. In the transition between secretory and maturation stages, about one quarter of the ameloblasts suddenly undergo apoptosis. We have studied this phenomenon using the continuously erupting rat incisor model. A special feature of this model is that all stages of ameloblast differentiation are presented within a single longitudinal section of the developing tooth. This permits investigation of the temporal sequence of gene and growth factor receptor expression during ameloblast differentiation and apoptosis. We describe the light and electron microscopic morphology of ameloblast apoptosis and the pattern of insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor expression by ameloblasts in the continuously erupting rat incisor model. In the developing rat incisor, ameloblast apoptosis is associated with downregulated expression of the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that ameloblasts are “hard wired” for apoptosis and that insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor expression is required to block the default apoptotic pathway. Possible mechanisms of insulin-like growth factor-1 inhibition of ameloblast apoptosis are presented. The rat incisor model may be useful in studies of physiological apoptosis as it presents apoptosis in a predictable pattern in adult tissues.
