    Notes: This study investigated the effects of novelty stress on neuroendocrine activities and running performance in Thoroughbred horses. First, to examine the neuroendocrine responses to novelty stress, we exposed horses to two types of novel environmental stimuli (audiovisual or novel field stimuli). After the stimuli, plasma concentrations of vasopressin, catecholamines and adrenocorticotropin (ACTH), as well as heart rates, were significantly increased in each experiment. Second, we investigated neuroendocrine activities during incremental exercise. Plasma concentrations of vasopressin, catecholamines, ACTH and blood lactate increased as the exercise load increased. Finally, we investigated the effects of novelty stimuli on neuroendocrine activities and running performance during supra-maximal exercise (110% VHRmax). When the novelty stimuli were presented to horses, the increases in plasma vasopressin and catecholamines due to exercise load were significantly smaller than those in the control experiments. Blood lactate during supra-maximal exercise was also significantly lower and total run time until exhaustion was prolonged in the novel environmental stimuli compared to the control. These results suggest that novelty stimuli facilitate vasopressin release from the posterior pituitary in addition to activating the sympatho-adrenomedullary and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axes in thoroughbred horses, and increase exercise capacity, resulting in improvement of running performance during supra-maximal exercise.

    Notes: The effect of electrically evoked dendritic vasopressin release on noradrenaline release into the hypothalamic supraoptic nucleus was assessed by in vivo microdialysis in conjunction with high pressure liquid chromatography and electrochemical detection. Electrical activation of magnocellular supraoptic neurones by stimulation of their axons at the level of the neural lobe significantly increased noradrenaline release into the nucleus (2.5-fold, P〈0.03). This increase was completely blocked by administration of a nonpeptide vasopressin V1a receptor antagonist via the microdialysis probe. These data suggest that dendritically released vasopressin facilitates noradrenaline release into the hypothalamic nucleus.

    Notes: Abstract The laser dye, 4-dicyanomethylene-2-methyl-6-p-dimethylaminostyryl-4H-pyran (DCM) was incorporated in various inorganic-organic host matrices by the sol-gel technique. The photostability of the DCM-doped materials under CW argon laser irradiation was investigated. The absorption of DCM monomer ar 480 nm decreased with increasing irradiation time and was accompanied by an increase in the absorption at 352 nm by inactive photoproducts. Photostability was estimated by measuring the decay rates of DCM fluorescences in different host matrices. The rates exhibited two components; a rapid decay within the first several tens of seconds followed by a slower luminescence decay. The rapid decay depended upon the DCM content in the matrix while the slow decay component was related to the mobility of the DCM in the different matrices. The silica host matrix containing phenyl and a small amount of epoxy groups exhibited the best photostability of the materials examined.

    Notes: Abstract Background. Studies of human tumors and human tumor cell lines indicate that telomerase activity may play a critical role in the tumor cell growth by sustaining cellular immortality. Telomerase activity has been detected in different percentages in various carcinomas, but the incidence of positive telomerase activity in bile duct carcinomas and surrounding normal bile duct tissues in its relation with malignancy grades of tumors, depth of invasion, lymphatic and vascular invasion, and lymph node metastases has not been studied. Methods. Telomerase activity was assayed in surgically resected specimens of seven human bile duct carcinomas and seven adjacent nonneoplastic tissues using the PCR-based Oncor TRAP (a telomeric repeat amplification protocol)-eze telomerase detection kit. The correlation between the results of telomerase activity and clinicopathological data was examined. Results. The telomerase activity was detected in six of seven (86%) bile duct carcinoma cases with only one negative case in our series, whereas no telomerase activity was detected in nonneoplastic adjacent bile duct tissues. Although the number of cases in our study was small, telomerase activity was regarded as independent of tumor grade, depth of invasion, lymphatic and intravascular invasion, or lymph node metastasis. Conclusions. These results indicate that increased telomerase activity is a common phenomenon in the majority of bile duct carcinomas, and that it is negative in nonneoplastic bile duct tissues.

    Notes: Abstract A 7-year-old boy who presented with a painful left hemiscrotal mass was diagnosed with acquired lymphangioma of the scrotum. Chronic friction from a cast for Perthes' disease might have been the cause of sudden enlargement of a congenital lymphangioma of the scrotum. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was useful for preoperative diagnosis and determining the extent of the scrotal lesions. Total excision of the mass leaving the overlying skin was successfully performed. The clinical significance of MRI for preoperative diagnosis and planning surgical resection of this lesion is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract In the absence of an external substrate, H 2 was evolved in Rhodovulum sulfidophilum under light-anaerobic conditions, along with degradation of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB). Cells grown with succinate as a sole carbon source accumulated only a small amount of PHB compared with that in cells grown with a multiple substrate consisting of a mixture of four organic acids. Unlike PHB-containing cells, PHB-deficient cells did not evolve H in the absence of an external substrate. Nitrogenase activity was expressed while no hydrogenase activity was detected during the incubation of PHB-containing cells. These results suggest that intracellular PHB serves as a substrate for the H evolution catalyzed by nitrogenase when an external substrate is lacking.

    Notes: Abstract Since the high-strength Ni-based superalloy, cast IN-100, is considered to be brittle at high temperatures, the stable creep crack growth region is limited. Therefore, technically, it is very difficult to perform creep tests and there are few experimental results on the creep crack growth behaviour of this material. We performed creep crack growth tests using Ni-based superalloy, cast IN-100, and derived the Q* parameter for this material, which characterizes the creep crack growth rate. Using this Q* parameter, we derived a law for the creep rupture life of this material.

    Notes: Juvenile hormone (JH) binding components from the fat body of the African migratory locust were analyzed in a search for a potential nuclear JH receptor. Biosynthetically prepared 10R[3H]JH III gave a high proportion of specific binding to isolated nuclei and extracted proteins; data obtained with the JH analogs, [3H]methoprene and [3H]pyriproxyfen, on the other hand, were obscured by abundant non-specific binding. The vast majority of the high affinity JH III binding activity present in cytosolic and nuclear extracts was due to a high molecular weight JH binding protein (JHBP) which has previously been identified in locust hemolymph. This protein has several chromatographic forms which interfered in the search for a nuclear JH receptor. When specific antiserum was used to remove JHBP from nuclear extracts, a novel JH binding activity (NBP) was detected. NBP could be separated from JHBP by precipitation with ammonium sulfate. NBP displayed a high affinity for JH III (Kd = 0.25 nM) and JH I and JH II competed strongly for JH III binding, whereas methoprene and pyriproxyfen showed apparent competition when present in 1,000-fold excess. NBP was present in nuclear extracts at approximately 25,000 sites per cell; levels were similar in male and female locusts and were not greatly affected by the presence or absence of JH. The characteristics of NPB make it a strong candidate for a nuclear JH receptor. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
