    Notes: A characteristic feature of epitaxial [110] thin films of YBa2Cu3O7−δ and PrBa2Cu3O7−x on [110]SrTiO3 substrates is that the films have a tendency to crack along the (001) planes. We have studied the crack spacing as a function of deposition temperature and film thickness. The experimental data have been found to be in excellent agreement with a theoretical analysis of the crack spacings in brittle films. The study has allowed us to determine the critical thickness below which no cracks are expected to form as a function of temperature for [110] films of YBa2Cu3O7−δ, PrBa2Cu3O7−x, and YBa2Cu3O7−δ/ PrBa2Cu3O7−x bilayers.

    Notes: An anomalously large periodicity has been observed in scanning tunneling microscope images of a (00.1) graphite sample. The unusual contrast has hexagonal symmetry, a periodicity of 7.7±0.2 nm and is superimposed on the usual a=0.246 nm atomic spacing of graphite. Current-voltage curves recorded in the scanning tunneling spectroscopy mode from the region showing the superperiodicity exhibit slightly more metallic behavior than those from neighboring normal regions. One possible explanation for the observed periodicity is that it is a rotational moiré pattern resulting from the overlap between a misoriented layer of graphite and the underlying graphite single crystal.

    Notes: Summary. Primary tumours from 40 patients with epithelial ovarian cancer, treated at St Thomas's Hospital over a 10-year period, were studied for the immunocytochemical expression of the following tumour markers in formalin-fixed paraffin embedded material: carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), cytokeratin (CAM 5.2), and DD9. An indirect immunoperoxidase staining technique was used. All of the tumours were positive for EMA and CAM 5.2, and 30% of them were positive for both CEA and DD9. The absence of CEA and DD9 may be of value in differentiating between metastatic abdominal adenocarcinomas of ovarian origin and those of gastrointestinal origin, but no indication of prognosis was obtained using these epithelial markers. The strong and widespread staining of all of the tumours for EMA suggests that this may be a useful marker for detecting metastatic or recurrent disease by immunoscintigraphy.

    Notes: Abstract Primary cultures were derived from human fetal ventral mesencephalon and cerebral cortex at 7–11 weeks gestation, and from fetal rat mesencephalon and cortex at embryonic day 14–15. Immunohistochemical analysis of the mesencephalic cultures using antibodies to tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) showed between 0.1–0.5% of human cells to be TH positive and 0.1–1% of rat cells to be TH positive. HPLC analysis of extracts from the cultures showed that they had the ability to synthesise and store dopamine. Implantation of the cultured human and rat mesencephalic tissue into a 6-hydroxydopamine rat model of Parkinson's disease produced marked recovery from amphetamine induced rotational asymmetry in the recipient rats, but no such recovery was observed following implantation of cortical cultures. Histological examination demonstrated the presence of surviving human mesencephalic and cortical grafts at least 6 months after implantation. Implants of cultured fetal rat tissue were less obviously but still significantly effective in these experiments. These rat tissue grafts were detectable for periods of at least 6–8 weeks by histological staining.

    Notes: Abstract Granulite-facies xenoliths from an Upper Devonian lamprophyre dyke near Tangier, Nova Scotia, provide new information about the lower crust in the Meguma Zone. Two mineralogically and chemically distinet groups of xenoliths occur. Both groups contain quartz+feldspar+biotite+Fe−Ti oxides+sulfides. In addition, group A contains garnet+graphite±[aluminosilicates+spinel±sapphirine (hight Al2O3 subgroups A1 and A2)] or [clinopyroxene+sphene+apatite (high CaO sub-group A3)]. Group B has highly variable proportions of orthopyroxene (B1), clinopyroxene (B2), and amphibole (B3). Trace-element contents of the highly aluminous xenoliths compare closely with average to upper crustal model compositions and are similar in many aspects to other “undepleted” granulite-facies rocks. LowP-T sedimentary assemblages of quartz-chlorite-clay minerals-calcite-albite or paragonite can account for the compositions of group A xenoliths. Within group B, a high-MgO (MgO〉13 wt%) subgroup with high transition-metal contents, and low-MgO (MgO〈9 wt%) sub-groups with higher LIL (large-ion-lithophile) element contents exist. Although the rare-earth and high-field-strength elements indicate a tholeiitic or low-K calc-alkaline chemistry, the LIL elements are as high as those from high-K calc-alkaline volcanic are rocks. Isotopically, group A ranges from εNdt=-2.56 to-0.80 and87Sr/86Sr t =0.7046 to 0.7182 fort=370 Ma. For group B these values are +1.45 to +5.33 and 0.7028 to 0.7048, respectively. Model ages (TCHUR) are correspondingly low and are tightly constrained (544±52 Ma). These “young” ages contrast with the middle Proterozoic Nd model ages of the overlying Meguma Zone low-grade flysch. This time-inverted stratigraphy appears to be the product of a tectonic break between a younger autochthonous Tangier lower crust (≡Avalon), and an older allochthonous Meguma Group upper crust.

    Notes: Summary Agonist-induced desensitization has been utilized to discriminate and independently “isolate” the neuronal excitatory receptors to 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) in the guinea pig ileum (5-HT3 and putative 5-HT4 receptors). Electrically stimulated longitudinal muscle myenteric plexus preparations, and non-stimulated segments of whole ileum were used. Exposure to 5-methoxytryptamine (10 μmol/l) inhibited completely responses to 5-HT at the putative 5-HT4 receptor without affecting 5-HT3-mediated responses. Conversely, exposure to 2-methyl-5-HT (10 μmol/l) inhibited completely responses to 5-HT at the 5-HT3 receptor without affecting putative 5-HT4-mediated responses. The inhibition with 5-methoxytryptamine and 2-methyl-5-HT, either alone or in combination, appeared selective as responses to KCI, DMPP, carbachol, histamine, and substance P were unaffected or only very slightly modified. Furthermore, the pA2 values for ICS 205–930 at the putative 5-HT4 (pA2 = 6.2 to 6.5) and 5-HT3 (pA2 = 7.6 to 8.1) receptors (estimated in the presence of 2-methyl-5HT and 5-methoxytryptamine, respectively) were consistent with those estimated in the absence of desensitization. 5-Methoxytryptamine, but not 2-methyl-5-HT, suppressed completely but reversibly the concentration-effect curve to renzapride, suggesting that responses to this agent are mediated exclusively via agonism at the putative 5-HT4 receptor. It is concluded that 5-methoxytryptamine and 2-methyl-5-HT can be utilized as selective probes to discriminate the putative 5-HT4 receptor from the 5-HT3 receptor in guinea pig ileum. This finding is of importance as no selective antagonist exists for the putative 5-HT4 receptor. Furthermore, the presently described method of agonist-induced desensitization and 5-HT receptor discrimination may be useful for the identification and characterization of the putative 5-HT4 receptor in other tissues and species.

    Notes: Summary The present study was designed to characterize an “atypical” 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor mediating relaxation of the rat oesophageal tunica muscularis mucosae. All experiments were performed under equilibrium conditions, using pargyline to inhibit the oxidative deamination of indoleamines, and cocaine and corticosterone to inhibit neuronal and extraneuronal uptake. Under these conditions 5-HT (0.3–1000 nmol/l) produced a concentration-dependent relaxation of carbachol-induced tension. The concentration-effect curve to 5-HT was unaffected by potent antagonists for 5-HT1, 5-HT2, 5-HT3 and so called 5-HT1P receptors (metergoline, methysergide, ketanserin, ondansetron, N-acetyl-5-hydroxytryptophyl-5-hydroxytryptophan amide), but was antagonized competitively by ICS 205–930 (pA2 = 6.7). Responses to 5-HT were mimicked by other indoleamines and substituted benzamides with the following order of potency: 5-HT ≥ 5-methoxytryptamine 〉 cisapride = α-methyl-5-HT = (S)-zacopride = renzapride 〉 (RS)-zacopride 〉 5-carboxamido-tryptamine = metoclopramide = (R)-zacopride 〉 tryptamine 〉 2-methyl-5-HT. ICS 205–930 afforded similar pA2 values (6.0–6.7) against each agonist, indicating a common site of action. Concentration-effect curves to 5-HT were not affected by tetrodotoxin or indomethacin, sugesting that 5-HT-induced relaxation of the tunica muscularis mucosae was mediated via a postjunctional receptor, independent of endogenous prostanoids. The pharmacological profile of the 5-HT receptor in the rat oesophageal tunica muscularis mucosae correlates well with the 5-HT4 receptor characterized recently in both the CNS and gastro-intestinal tract.
