    Notes: Abstract  Distribution and morphological changes of cells containing the signal transducing neurotrophin receptor, full-length Trk B (fl-Trk B), were investigated in the prefrontal cortex (area FD) and the primary visual cortex (area OC) of the macaque monkey between embryonic day 140 and the adult stage. In area FD at the adult stage, fl-Trk B immunoreactivity was mainly observed in the pyramidal cells in layers II/III, V and VI. Small numbers of granule cells in layer IV were immunopositive. Bipolar and multipolar cells in layer II were rarely immunoreactive. At embryonic day 140, the number of fl-Trk B immunoreactive pyramidal cell was high, and gradually decreased until the adult stage. In layer IV, the number of fl-Trk B-ir cells was also high at embryonic day 140, and decreased remarkably from postnatal day 7 to the adult stage. On the other hand, in area OC at the adult stage, cells in layers II/III, IV, V and VI were fl-Trk B immunopositive. From embryonic day 140 until adulthood, the cells in layer IVc were fl-Trk B immunoreactive. The strongest fl-Trk B immunoreactivity in areas FD and OC occurred at postnatal month 6, coinciding with the time of the synapse overproduction. These findings suggest that ligands of fl-Trk B, such as BDNF and NT4/5 may be involved in the development and maintenance of the monkey cerebral cortices.

    Notes: Summary Concentration of cholecystokinin-8 and the activity of glutamic acid decarboxylase were determined in the various cerebral cortical subdivisions of Japanese monkey (Macaca fuscata fuscata) at three different ages (embryonic 4 months, full-term and adult). The CCK-8 immunoreactive material extracted with 90% methanol from the cerebral cortex of the adult and foetal monkey were shown to be identical with synthetic cholecystokinin-8 by the criterion of co-elution on gel filtration chromatography (Sephadex G-50). The peptide concentration increased dramatically by about 30–80 fold (in terms of protein) and 17–28 fold (in terms of wet weight) between embryonic 4-month-old and full-term monkeys, while the level decreased 1/6–1/16 (protein) and 1/4–1/10 (wet weight) between full-term and adult monkeys. In adults, the highest levels of the peptide was observed in the association cortex, orbital prefrontal cortex and posterior parietal cortex. Glutamic acid decarboxylase activity, on the other hand, gradually increased about 4–10 fold (protein) between embryonic 4-month-old and adult animals and there was little variation in the increase rate among the cerebral subdivisions. In contrast to cholecystokinin-8, no reduction in the enzyme activity occurred between full-term and adult animals. The high level of cholecystokinin-8 in the embryonic period suggests that the peptide may participate in the regulation of the development of primate cerebral cortex.

    Notes: Abstract DNA polymorphisms in the ψβ1-β-globin gene region in nine Asian macaques(Macaca fuscata, M. mulatta, M. nemestrina, M. cyclopis, M. fascicularis, M. arctoides, M. radiata, M. maura, andM. assamensis) were examined using several restriction endonucleases and the human ψβ1, δIVS2, and βIVS2 probes. TheBamHI site 3′ to the β-globin gene was polymorphic inM. fuscata andM. mulatta, while the HincII site and the EcoRI site in the ψβ1-globin gene region was highly polymorphic inM. fuscata andM. mulatta, respectively. These polymorphic sites also seem to be present in other Asian macaques. The present study of the polymorphism at theBamHI site 3′ to the β-globin gene in Asian macaques supports, at the nuclear DNA level, the idea that thefascicularis group includingM. fuscata, M. mulatta, M. cyclopis, andM. fascicularis is different from other Asian macaque groups.

    Notes: Abstract DNA polymorphisms in the ε- and γ-globin gene regions in nine Asian macaques(Macaca fuscata, M. mulatta, M. nemestrina, M. cyclopis, M. fascicularis, M. arctoides, M. radiata, M. maura, andM. assamensis) were examined using several different restriction endonucleases and the human ε and γIVS2 probes.M. fuscata andM. mulatta had highly polymorphic sites(BglII andHincII, respectively) in the ε-globin gene region. TheBamHI site in the γ-globin gene region was highly polymorphic inM. mulatta, while theBglII andHindIII sites in the γ-globin gene region were highly polymorphic inM. fuscata andM. mulatta. The presence of the γ-globin gene triplication was frequently observed inM. fuscata. The gain or loss of an additionalBglII site between two γ-globin genes in Asian macaques seems to be very meaningful for discussing genetic relationships among them.

    Notes: New resist systems based on acid-catalyzed, electrophilic aromatic substitution are described. These new resists show high sensitivity to deep UV and E-beam radiation with values approaching 2 mJ/cm2 and 2 μC/cm2, respectively. The resists are based on a three component system consisting of poly(4-hydroxystyrene), a polyfunctional, low molecular weight, latent electrophile, and a photoactive onium salt used as an acid generator. Irradiation of the resist film produces a latent image of acid dispersed in the matrix. During the postbaking step the photo-generated acid reacts with the latent polyfunctional electrophile and releases a reactive carbocationic intermediate with concomitant liberation of acetic acid. The carbocationic intermediate then reacts with neighboring phenolic moieties in a crosslinking reaction. The substitution reaction liberates a proton, making the process catalytic in nature, thus incorporating the concept of chemical amplification. These highly sensitive materials can be used as nonswelling negative multipurpose resists that function in deep-UV, x-ray or E-beam modes. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Commercial cellulase preparations from Trichoderma viride and Aspergillus niger were immobilized on porous silica glass and ceramics such as alumina and titania with titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4) and on their silanized derivatives with glutaraldehyde (GLUT). The amounts of the immobilized enzymes were in the range 10-50 mg/g carrier (dry) depending on the kind of carrier and immobilization method. Their activities toward carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), xylan, aryl-β-glucoside, and aryl-β-xyloside were 3-53% of those of the native enzymes. The optimum pH of the enzymes shifted to the acidic side in most cases, whereas the optimum temperatures were nearly the same as those of native ones. The activity of immobilized enzyme preparations towards CMC did not change significantly during continuous operation over a periods of 60 days. Finally, xylan was hydrolyzed with the immobilized enzymes, and the sugars formed were investigated.

    Notes: The baculovirus/insect cell system (Autographa californica multiple nuclear polyhedrosis virus/Spodoptera frugiperda Sf9 cells) was used to express the GPI-anchored human melanoma tumor antigen, melanotransferrin or p97. This system served to study the expression and productivity of recombinant GPI-anchored p97 by insect cells. The Sf9 cells expressed a cell surface GPI-anchored form of p97 as well as a soluble form of p97 that did not appear to be derived from the GPI-anchored form of p97. Both recombinant forms, although Endo H resistant, migrated slightly faster (∼88 kDa) than the native p97 (∼95-97 kDa). The insect GPI-anchored p97 was sensitive to PI-PLC, which exposed a detectable cross-reacting determinant. The Sf9 cell surface p97 expression was similar to that of human melanoma (SK-MEL-28) cells, whereas the Sf9 cell specific secretion rate was 10-fold higher. Also Sf9 cells retained considerably higher levels of p97 within the cell. The Sf9 cell surface expression of p97 varied with time after infection, with the maximum expression, which appeared independent of multiplicities of infection greater than 1, occurring at 48 h. After 48 h, levels of cell surface and secreted p97 fell whereas p97 retained within the cell increased, which possibly reflected the lytic nature of the expression system. The successful expression of GPI-anchored human p97 by the baculovirus/insect cell system not only provides a source of p97 for further research but also is the basis of an alternative method for the commercial production of GPI-anchored proteins. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A new carbon fiber was prepared from the lignin (steam-exploded lignin), which was isolated from steam-exploded birch wood (Betula platyphylla). The lignin was modified to melt thermally on hydrogenolysis. The chloroform soluble and carbon disulfide insoluble fraction (HL) of the reaction products was heated at 300-350°C for 30 min, giving a molten viscous material (HHL). The HHL had a softening point of 110°C and melted at over 145°C to form viscous liquid. When HHL was subjected to a spinning test, according to a conventional fusion spinning method at a speed over 100 m/min, a fine filament could be continuously formed through a pinhole (diameter: 0.3 mm). After the filaments were heated in air at 1-2°C/min up to 210°C, by which time the filament was converted to have an infusible property, the filaments were carbonized by heating from a room temperature to 1000°C at a heating rate of 5°C/min in a stream of nitrogen. The typical properties of the lignin based carbon fiber were as follows: Fiber diameter = 7.6 ± 2.7μ Elongation = 1.63 ± 0.29% Tensile strength = 660 ± 230 MPa; Modulus of elasticity = 40.7 ± 6.3 GPa. The chemical structure of the precursor was remarkably changed from that of the original lignin, indicating the elimination of aliphatic functional groups implied originally in the starting material.
