    Notizen: Abstract Five cases of giant inflammatory polyps associated with idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease are reported. Polyps produced intestinal obstruction in three cases; consequently, surgery was performed. In a further two cases, intestinal bleeding was improved by endoscopic polypectomy. Electron microscopy showed fibroblasts, myofibroblasts, mast cells, lymphocytes, collagen fibers, capillaries, and venules. Remnants of the original mucosal epithelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and hypertrophic autonomous nerve plexuses were noted. Nerve fibers were interwoven with the matrix of the polyps. Mast cells were closely linked with vessels, nerves, and collagen fibers. They may have an important role in the excessive granulation, angiogenesis, and fibrotic process in giant inflammatory polyps.

    Notizen: Summary The functionally important lining cells of the synovium (types A and B synoviocytes) are the subjects of much study but have presented problems with their characterization and microscopical identification, particularly at the light level. Type A (macrophage-like) synoviocytes, however are more easily localized than the type B (fibroblast-like) variety because of the greater availability of antimacrophage antisera. We describe, using light and electron microscopy, a monoclonal antibody which in the synovial intimal layer is specific for type B synoviocytes.

    Notizen: Summary A series of 29 cellular schwannomas is described in terms of their clinical presentation and course, light and electron-microscopic appearance, immunohistochemical properties and cytogenetics. The study indicates that cellular schwannoma can be defined as a subtype of classical schwannoma, characterized by spindle cells forming a compact fascicular, sometimes fibrosarcoma-like growth pattern, a low mitotic activity, a generally moderate nuclear and cellular polymorphism and a high degree of Schwann cell differentiation as seen by electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry. The tumour is characteristically located close to the vertebral column, in the mediastinum or retroperitoneum and has a benign course. Occasionally bone destruction and neurological symptoms develop. The clinical appearance together with the high cellularity, fascicular pattern and mitotic activity had led to the erroneous diagnosis of a soft tissue sarcoma in a few cases, and cellular schwannoma may thus be considered to be a pseudosarcoma. Immunohistochemically, cellular schwannomas appear to deviate from classical schwannomas and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumours by their expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein. The chromosome analysis revealed a normal diploid stemline karyotype, with a variety of abnormal clones, including one with monosomy 22.

    Notizen: Summary We report the second case of a malignant paraganglioma of the stomach in a 56-year-old female patient. However, our case is the first investigated by immunohistochemistry and electron-microscopy. The tumour was characterized immunohistochemically by the presence of neurofilament protein, glial fibrillary acidic protein, S-100 protein, neuron-specific enolase, chromogranin A, ACTH, leu-enkephalin and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, and ultrastructurally by demonstration of neurosecretory granules and paranuclear intermediate filament whorls. Despite massive metastatic spread in the abdominal cavity, the patient is still alive 4 years after initial diagnosis.

    Notizen: Summary Glomerular lesions in hereditary nephrotic mice (ICGN strain) were investigated by electron microscopy. The glomeruli of unaffected animals, which appeared normal by light microscopy, had developed an ultrastructural change in the glomerular capillary basement membrane (GCBM). There was a partial thickening of the GCBM with bilaminar splitting of the lamina densa and an electron-dense fibrillar material exhibiting cross-striations. In affected animals, light microscopy revealed a marked thickening of GCBM and an increase of mesangial matrix without cellular proliferaton. By electron microscopy, multilaminar splitting of the lamina densa in the thickened GCBMs and fusion of the epithelial foot processes were observed. In some severely affected animals, immune complex deposition was found in GCBM, but little if any was observed in other animals. In the end, the glomeruli were globally sclerosed. Our findings suggest that initial structural abnormalities in GCBM may play an important role in the onset and development of the disease, though subsequent events such as immune complex deposition would modify the disease.

    Notizen: Summary Cyclosporin A (CsA) is a potent immunosuppressant with a selective activity on T-helper lymphocytes. However, CsA also exerts biological effects on non-lymphoid cells (fibroblasts, endothelial and epithelial cells). CsA can inhibit in vivo and in vitro DNA synthesis of epidermal keratinocytes (EK) and induces in vivo morphological alterations of kidney epithelial cells. In the present study we investigated the in vivo effects of a short-term CsA treatment (50 mg/kg per day) on DNA synthesis (evaluated through 5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine incorporation) and on the histological features of normal human skin xenografted (NHSX) on to congenitally athymic nude mice. When compared with control NHSX, CsA induced a statistically significant inhibition of DNA synthesis of NHSX EK. At the light- and electron-microscopic level, apart from a decrease in the thickness of the viable epidermis of NHSX (statistically non-significant), no noticeable differences between treated and control NHSX could be detected. EK, Langerhans cells and melanocytes appeared morphologically unaffected by CsA and no signs of acute toxicity (giant mitochondria, vacuolization, microcalcifications) were seen. These results suggest that CsA exerts a subtle effect on human EK; indeed, despite an unequivocal antiproliferative activity, no significant histological changes related to the acute CsA toxicity seem to be induced on the various epidermal cell types.

    Thema: Medizin
    Notizen: Summary Current classifications of salivary gland tumors separate mucoepidermoid carcinoma from other neoplasms on the basis of a number of histological features, in particular the lack of participation of neoplastic myoepithelial cells. However, ultrastructural examination of low- and intermediate-grade mucoepidermoid carcinomas and pleomorphic adenomas reveals many common organizational and cellular features. Of prime importance is the relationship of intermediate cells to the luminal cells in mucoepidermoid carcinomas, which is remarkably similar to that seen between modified myoepithelial cells and luminal cells in pleomorphic adenomas. The results suggest that intermediate cells of mucoepidermoid carcinoma are the counterpart of the modified myoepithelial cells of pleomorphic adenoma. The generally accepted hypothesis that the former tumor develops from an excretory duct reserve cell, while the latter originates from an intercalated duct stem cell does not seem to be valid; pleomorphic adenoma and mucoepidermoid carcinoma appear to be closely related morphologically.

    Notizen: Summary The very heterogeneous population of glomeruli in rats with lithium-induced chronic nephropathy which includes small glomeruli without connection to a proximal tubule (atubular glomeruli) and large hypertropic glomeruli with connection to a normal proximal tubule, was studied at the ultrastructural level, using stereological methods. After 8 weeks of lithium treatment followed by 8 weeks without lithium the hypertrophic glomeruli showed no changes in their relative ultrastructural composition, including normal mesangium, basement membrane-like material and peripheral basement membrane. The absolute quantities of each component were, however, increased due to the increased volume of the glomeruli. The atubular glomeruli had increased volume fractions of mesangium, peripheral basement membrane, basement membrane-like material and epithelium, whereas the absolute quantities were decreased due to the decreased volume. The thickness of the basement membrane was within normal limits in the group of hypertrophic glomeruli but increased by 31% above controls in the group of atubular glomeruli. Both groups of glomeruli in lithium-treated animals showed normal mean foot process width, but with a slightly abnormal distribution. The atubular glomeruli showed a disproportionate large decrease in peripheral filtration surface and capillary length, compared with the reduction in glomerular volume, whereas the hypertrophic glomeruli showed changes in proportion with the increased volume.

    Notizen: Summary Density and pattern of nerve fibers with neuropeptide Y-like immunoreactivity (NPY-LI) and substance P-like immunoreactivity (SP-LI) in the rat dura mater encephali were investigated by light and electron microscopy using whole-mount preparations. NPY-LI fibers are observed throughout the encephalic dura mater. A remarkable net of NPY-LI nerve fibers is located in the walls of the sagittal and transverse sinuses. Beyond that NPY-LI network, distinct NPY-LI nerve fibers or plexus occur in the rostral falx, parietal dura mater of the olfactory bulb, supratentorial dura mater, parietal dura mater of the cerebellum, tentorium cerebelli and the ventral dura mater. Electron microscopic studies reveal that NPY-LI is exclusively located in unmyelinated axons of small and large nerve fiber bundles, with or without a perineural sheath. Immunopositive C-fibers are predominantly associated with the vascular bed. SP-LI nerve fibers have a moderate and more uniform distribution in the encephalic dura mater. A distinct plexus of SP-LI fibers follows the branches of the middle meningeal artery and the adjacent dura mater. SP-LI fibers are most prominent in the parietal dura mater of the cerebellum. Fine beaded SP-LI fibers, arising from larger SP-LI fiber bundles, are observed in close association to the capillary bed. SP-LI axons are all unmyelinated. They are found in larger nerve fiber bundles with a perineural sheath or in Schwann cells lacking any perineural sheath. The function of NPY-LI and SP-LI nerve fibers in the rat dura mater is discussed in relation to their topography, density and termination.

    Notizen: Summary Morphological changes are shown in the muscle biopsy specimens of an 8-year-old girl who suffered from a triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) deficiency, resulting in a chronic, nonspherocytic, hemolytic anemia, mental retardation and neuromuscular impairment. The newly introduced enzyme histochemical reaction for TPI demonstrated a total lack of histochemically detectable enzyme activity, whereas biochemical analysis of muscle tissue revealed less than 10% of the normal enzyme activity. Electron microscopy showed a degenerative myopathy with an increase in the amount of intracellular glycogen. Additionally, mitochondrial changes within the muscle fibers were observed to be similar to those in mitochondrial myopathies. The disturbed balance between glycerinaldehyde phosphate and dihydroxy-acetone phosphate, due to the deficiency of the TPI enzyme, is interpreted as the biochemical background of an impaired electron transport across the mitochondrial membrane, resulting in the coexistence of an impaired glycolytic pathway and an impaired mitochondrial metabolism of muscle cells.

    Notizen: Summary Seven muscle biopsies from patients with the clinical characteristics of Marinesco-Sjögren syndrome (MSS) revealed myopathic changes of two types; muscle fiber necrosis followed by regeneration and focal myofibrillar degeneration inducing autophagocytosis with rimmed vacuole formation. In two young patients, massive muscle fiber necrosis with phagocytic invasion was the predominant feature and autophagic phenomenon was minimal, resembling the findings in progressive muscular dystrophy. Myofibrillar degeneration with autophagic phenomenon was prominent in five adult patients. The coexistence of these two degenerative processes and the secondarily induced reactive changes of muscle fiber hypertrophy, interstitial fibrosis, occasional ragged-red fibers and type 1 fiber predominance, are responsible for the wide spectrum of muscle pathology in MSS. The dense double-membrane structure surrounding myonuclei, previously reported as being specific to MSS, was present in only one biopsy.

    Notizen: Summary We have developed a functional vegetative model by an 18-min clamping of the ascending aorta combined with a bypass formation between the aorta to right atrium and the aorta to femoral vein. Complete global brain ischemia (CGBI) induced for 18 min with this model provided the following distinct advantages: cardiopulmonary functions were well preserved during postischemic recirculation, and all dogs survived without serious extracerebral complications. Neuronal damage in vegetative dog induced by an 18-min CGBI was studied by light and electron microscopy. The Purkinje cells and the hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells showing clumping of nuclear chromatin and slightly increased stainability were observed after CGBI without recirculation. All these neurons showed transient increased stainability with microvacuolation 15 min after recirculation. Over 50% of these neurons showed virtually normal features 1 h after recirculation. Damage to these neurons progressed again slowly up to 6 h after recirculation. However, all these neurons had disintegrated 2–3 days after recirculation. A decrease in synaptic vesicles was observed in many presynaptic terminals in the molecular layers of the cerebellum after CGBI without recirculation. These changes in the presynaptic terminals progressed 15 min after recirculation. These results indicated that the damage to the Purkinje cells and the CA1 pyramidal cells induced by CGBI consisted of two phases, and that the change in the early phase was reversible. We speculate that the damage to the Purkinje cells in the early stage is related to the decrease of the synaptic vesicles in the presynaptic terminals.

    Notizen: Summary The pathways and mechanisms by which edematous fluid accumulation in the extracellular space (ECS) clears from brain are poorly understood. The objective of this study was to explore, using immunocytochemical technique, the fate of a proteinaceous fluid added to the brain ECS and to study the clearance pathways. The protein movement of this edema fluid was investigated using the direct infusion model on rats. Rat albumin (20 μl) was slowly infused into the caudate-putamen of anesthetized adult rats and the spread and clearance of the edema was followed in various brain regions using immunocytochemical and conventional light and electron microscopy at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 days post-infusion. Our studies showed that protein-rich edema fluid cleared slowly from the brain, with 8 days required for the infusion albumin to exit completely from the brain parenchyma. Immediately following infusion, the albumin was distributed in the ECS of the white matter and the overlying deep cortical layers related to the infusion site. During the next 24 h, more of the infused albumin traveled through the ECS to the cortical surface where the albumin passed through the glia limitans to reach the subarachnoid front. Additionally, at 48 h post-infusion, that albumin, which had migrated to the ventricular wall, cleared from the ECS of the subependymal white matter and the ependymal clefts to reach the ventricular cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). In edematous regions, the perivascular spaces of venules and veins were filled with reaction product. Continuity of this perivascular reaction product existed from the deep edematous area to the temporobasal subarachnoid space from where the reaction product gradually disappeared from the parenchyma. From these studies we infer that during the late state of the resolution process the edema front moves toward both the ventricle and the cortical surface to reach the CSF. Thus, among the potential routes for edema clearance, the pathways leading to CSF clearance of fluid predominated. During this clearance process, neither neurons, glia nor the vascular endothelium showed any endocytotic response to the infused albumin throughout the 8-day course. We conclude from these observations that the CSF pathway is the major route of protein-rich edema clearance, when such clearance is not complicated by any concomitant CNS perturbation.

    Notizen: Summary The ultrastructure of corticotrophs in the pituitary of golden hamsters was studied by immunocytochemistry. Corticotrophs were classified into three types according to the different size of the secretory granules. Type A and B cells were oval or polygonal in shape containing small (158±38 nm) and medium-sized (250±53 nm) secretory granules, respectively. Type C cells were usually pyramidal or irregular in shape, and contained large secretory granules (380±78 nm). The cytoplasmic organelles of type B and C cells were fairly well developed. In all types of corticotrophs, the secretory granules varied in electron density, and were either arranged in a single row along the cell membrane, or concentrated in the vascular pole of the cytoplasm. Many of the corticotrophs sent processes to encircle neighboring somatotrophs. In the female, the proportions of type A and B cells were higher then those in the male, whereas that of the type C cells was lower. All three types of corticotrophs were observed in the early postnatal stage. The population of type A cells decreased with the advancement of postnatal development, with a concomitant increase of that of the type C cells. Thus, type A cells might represent the immature type of corticotrophs which would evolve to become the type C cells. One to 2 weeks after adrenalectomy, the number of type C cells was drastically increased. This was accompanied by their prominent changes in ultrastructure as in the type B cells. The cytoplasm became hypertrophic with extensive dilated cisternae of rough endoplasmic reticulum. The large Golgi apparatus displayed profiles seemingly involved in the formation of secretory granules. The number of type A cells was moderately decreased, and they showed little morphological alteration. Since type B and C corticotrophs exhibited a remarkable response to adrenalectomy, it is concluded that they represent the active state of corticotrophs.

    Thema: Medizin
    Notizen: Summary Central neurocytoma has been characterised by its intraventricular localisation, predominant occurrence in young adults, oligodendroglioma-like histology, benign course and ultrastructural evidence for neuronal differentiation. Eleven intraventricular central neurocytomas were studied histopathologically, employing cell type-specific immunocytochemical markers and electron microscopic analysis. In the past, these lesions have caused diagnostic problems since central neurocytomas share basic histopathological features with other periventricular neoplasms. Accordingly, several tumours of this series had previously been classified as ependymomas of the foramen of Monro or oligodendrogliomas. Although generally regarded as benign lesions, two central neurocytomas of this series showed histopathological evidence of anaplasia, with focal necrosis, mitotic activity and vascular proliferation. All central neurocytomas exhibited immunoreactivity for neuronspecific enolase and synaptophysin, indicating consistent neuronal differentiation. Three tumours were studied by electron microscopy and contained synaptic vesicles, neuritic processes and neurosecretory granules. In addition, one tumour contained ganglioid cells and this was associated with focal immunoreactivity for neurofilament protein, suggesting that some central neurocytomas may, at least focally, continue to differentiate towards the formation of mature neurons. Two of the tumours expressed glial fibrillary acidic protein in a considerable percentage of neoplastic cells which demonstrates a capacity for bipotential, i.e. glial and neuronal differentiation. We conclude that the central neurocytoma can be reliably diagnosed using antibodies to neuron-specific enolase and synaptophysin, and that histogenetically, this neoplasm is derived from a neuroectodermal precursor cell capable of both, neuronal and glial differentiation. The hypothesis is proposed that the central neurocytoma originates from the subependymal plate of the lateral ventricles, an embryonal matrix cell layer which postnatally maintains a limited proliferative potential.

    Notizen: Summary A case is reported of a 9-year-old boy with a cerebral polar spongioblastoma. This neoplasm, first described by Russell and Cairns in 1947, is morphologically a distinct entity characterized by bipolar tumor cells with palisading nuclei. In the case under study immunoreactivity for neuron-specific enolase was found and ultrastructural features of developing neuronal elements were present. A neuro-endocrine nature was suggested by de Chadarévian et al. (1984) in a morphologically similar case. These findings are in contrast with the longheld view that the polar spongioblastoma is cytogenetically related to the embryonal radial glial cells.

    Notizen: Summary We have consistently observed tubulovesicular structures in brain tissues during the terminal stages of naturally occurring and experimentally induced spongiform encephalopathies, irrespective of the host species and virus strain. In NIH Swiss mice inoculated intracerebrally or intraocularly with the Fujisaki strain of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) virus, tubulovesicular structures, measuring 20–50 nm in diameter, were particularly prominent in dilated, pre-and postsynaptic neuronal processes, occasionally being mixed with synaptic vesicles. These structures appeared 13 weeks following intracerebral inoculation, 5 weeks before the onset of clinical signs, when spongiform changes were also detected. The number and density of tubulovesicular structures increased steadily during the course of clinical disease, and were particularly abundant in mice 47 to 51 weeks after intraocular inoculation. In hamsters infected with the 263 K strain of scrapie virus, these structures were initially detected 3 weeks following intracerebral inoculation and increased dramatically at 10 weeks postinoculation. The appearance of tubulovesicular structures before the onset of overt disease in mice inoculated with CJD virus by either the intracerebral or intraocular route, and before the appearance of other neuropathological changes in hamsters infected with scrapie virus, indicate that they represent either a part or aggregate of the infectious virus or a pathological product of the infection.

    Notizen: Summary To study the pathomechanism of demyelination in canine distemper (CD), dog brain cell cultures were infected with virulent A75/17-CD virus (CDV) and examined ultrastructurally. Special attention was paid to the oligodendrocytes, which were specifically immunolabelled. In addition, cerebroside sulfotransferase (CST), an enzyme specific for oligodendrocyte activity was assayed during the course of the infection. Infection and maturation as well as CDV-induced changes were found in astrocytes and brain macrophages. Infection of oligodendrocytes was rarely seen, although CST activity of the culture markedly decreased and vacuolar degeneration of these cells occurred, resulting in their complete disappearance. We concluded that the degeneration of oligodendrocytes and demyelination is not due to direct virus-oligodendrocyte interaction, but due to CDV-induced events in other glial cells.

    Notizen: Summary An unusual cerebral tumor is reported in a 14-year-old boy. On light and electron microscopy, the constituent cells were very complex; the majority of the neoplastic cells were primitive neuroectodermal cells dispersed in myxomatous or fibrous stroma. Neoplastic neuronal cells and hypertrophic astrocytes were also observed in these areas. The neuronal cells showed a continuous spectrum of differentiation from very primitive to mature ganglion cells. Furthermore, the tumor contained a highly cellular discrete area consisting of neuroblasts and their precursor cells. From these findings, a diagnosis of composite ganglioneuroblastoma was made.

    Notizen: Summary A case is reported of a boy, 3 years of age, with a large medulloepithelioma in the left cerebral hemisphere. Medulloepitheliomas are rare tumors of the primitive medullar epithelium. Histological, immunohistochemical and electron microscopical findings are presented. We discuss previously reported cases, the ontogeny of this type of tumor and the relation to the socalled primitive neuro-ectodermal tumors (PNET).

    Notizen: Summary An autopsy case of hereditary peroneal muscular atrophy (PMA) with rigidity and static tremor is presented. The patient developed slowly progressive distal muscular atrophy of the legs at the age of 15 years. By the age of 52 years, PMA became marked associated with pes cavus, and tremor and rigidity of the extremities were noted. Motor and sensory conduction velocities gradually depressed and lost near the end of his life. At autopsy, the major neuropathological abnormalities involved the peripheral nervous systems, and were characterized by axonal atrophy and loss of myelinated fibres. These changes involved both the proximal and distal nerves, being more severely affected in the distal. The pathological changes in other regions of the nervous systems were mainly confined to the spinal cord, dorsal ganglia and spinal nerve roots, and pigmented neurons in the brain stem. Morphometrically, the total fascicular area was much smaller than in control, but the total number of myelinated fibers greatly outnumbered that of control 75 200 to 48 200 at the proximal sciatic nerve and then gradually decreased towards the periphery; however, even in the distal sural nerve, the total number of myelinated fibers exceeded that of control (6820 to 5469). Thus, the density of myelinated fibers were much higher, being 1.5 to 2 times greater, than in control. Its abrupt decline at the distal nerve might account for neurogenic atrophy of the distal musculature. Unmyelinated fibers were slightly increased in density and not atrophic. This case is unique in its clinicopathology and does not belong to any subtypes of PMA including “neuronal plus”.

    Notizen: Summary We describe postmortem findings in a patient with human T lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I)-as-sociated myelopathy (HAM). The patient developed the disease 8 years after blood transfusion and showed good response to corticosteroid treatment but died of cardiac failure. Histologically, chronic, mild meningoence-phalomyelitis was noted predominantly involving the bilateral lateral and anterior columns of the middle to lower thoracic segments. The spinal cord lesions showed obvious loss of myelinated nerve fibers and fibrillary gliosis with minimal inflammatory cell infiltration. Electron microscopy of the lesion revealed disintegration of the myelin sheaths, regular separation of the minor dense line of the myelin sheaths, and completely demyelinated axons. In addition, remyelinated fibers with thin central myelin sheaths and disproportionately large axons were seen frequently. These findings indicate that primary demyelination and remyelination by oligodendrocytes occur in the spinal cord lesions of HAM.

    Notizen: Summary Day-6 rabbit blastocysts were cultured in Ham's F10 medium supplemented with polyvinylpyrrolidone as a macromolecular component, for 4 to 12 h. The integrity of the blastocyst cells was demonstrated by electron microscopy. Expansion and biosynthesis of proteins and of DNA were studied after culturing in the presence of 35S-methionine and 3H-thymidine. Polyvinylpyrrolidone did not interfere with the subsequent protein analysis, which was performed by two dimensional gel electrophoresis followed by silver staining and fluorography. More than 600 labelled proteins were found in the blastocyst tissue, many of them were also present in the blastocyst fluid and in the blastocyst coverings. Several proteins seemed to be produced for incorporation into the blastocyst coverings; others, only detected in the culture medium, might have been synthesized for secretion into the environment.

    Notizen: Summary The present study described the labelling of amoeboid microglial cells in the postnatal rat brain with OX-42, an antibody that recognizes type 3 complement receptors CR3 in mononuclear phagocytes. Of the diverse morphological forms of amoeboid microglia present in the corpus callosum in early postnatal (2–5 days) rats, cells with a round regular outline, or showing short stout processes, were the most intensely stained. When traced from the main cell colony into the borderline zone with the cortex, the immunoreactivity of amoeboid microglia that assumed a ramified form was drastically reduced. Examination of materials from the late postnatal (8–12 days) age group showed that the majority of the OX-42 positive cells in the corpus callosum became oval, elongated and ramified. Immunoelectron microscopy confirmed the above observations, and also showed that the immunoreactivity in the round amoeboid microglia was localized in their plasma membrane, surface projections and invaginations, as well as in some of the subsurface vacuoles. The immunoreactivity was reduced in the oval cells, and diminished in the elongated or ramified form. It is proposed that the presence of CR3 membrane receptors in amoeboid microglial cells is related to their active role in endocytosis. These, however, diminish with the growth of the brain.

    Notizen: Summary The astroglial cells have been studied in the lizard spinal cord by means of metallic impregnations, immunohistochemical (glial fibrillary acidic protein) and ultrastructural methods. Three astroglial cell types have been immunohistochemically identified: ependymocytes, radial astrocytes and astrocytes. Transitional forms have also been observed. Scarce immunopositive ependymocytes were located in the dorsal and ventral regions of the ependyma. The radial astrocytic somata were located around the ependymal layer and their processes reached the subpial glia limitans. Typical astrocytes were the most abundant astroglial cell type; astrocytes located in the ventral horn showed a greater development than those of the dorsal horn. In the white matter, the astrocytes were large and their processes formed part of the subpial glia limitans; on some occasions, astrocytic cell bodies also formed part of this subpial limitans. Transitional elements between astrocytes and radial astrocytes were observed in both grey and white matter. The perivascular and subpial glia limitans were continuous and showed a strong immunoreactivity. The comparative analysis of our results in the lizard spinal cord with those in other vertebrate groups leads us to conclude that reptiles could represent the key group in the phylogenetic evolution of the astroglial cells in vertebrates.

    Notizen: Summary A new kind of diffuse palmoplantar keratoderma with autosomal recessive inheritance and without associated symptoms was described in Norrbotten, Sweden by Gamborg Nielsen in 1985. Clinically, it ranges between the less severe dominant Unna-Thost type and the more severe recessive Meleda type, as it is milder than the latter. Skin biopsies of five patients from three different families with this new palmoplantar keratoderma, as well as five obligatory heterozygotes from one family, were investigated ultrastructurally in order to characterize this new entity and to differentiate it from the Meleda type. Several features are common to both autosomal recessive palmoplantar keratoses. They show a broadened granular layer, a transit region consisting of cells with a marginal envelope, and considerable hyperkeratosis. Morphologically, this transformation delay is less pronounced in the Gamborg Nielsen type than in the classical Meleda type. As is typical for ridged skin, both types of palmoplantar keratoses possess composite keratohyaline granules. In contrast to the normal appearance of keratohyaline granules in the Meleda type, the Gamborg Nielsen type also shows qualitative deviations of keratohyaline granules with different degrees of spongiosity and electron density and sometimes with a granular border. It seems that abnormal keratohyaline proteins are synthesized that behave differently. The sudden transformation of a granular into a horny cell is physiologically regulated by different enzymes. A delay in this process may be caused by a mutation that reduces or alters the enzymes concerned. We assume the palmoplantar keratoderma of the Gamborg Nielsen type to be a variant of the heterogeneous group of the Meleda type of palmoplantar keratoderma with autosomal recessive inheritance.

    Notizen: Summary The cultured hair cells from 4-day-old C3H mice were studied by electron microscopy. The hair roots isolated from the skin by collagenase digestion were dispersed into a cell suspension by treatment with a mixture of trypsin and ethylenediaminetetraacetate. The cells were cultured in MCDB-153 (a medium containing seven growth factors) for 1, 3, 6 or 13 days. The number of cultured cells on day 3 was twice that on day 1, and stayed at the same level until day 13. By electron microscopy, some of the cells cultured for 1 day were seen to be undifferentiated and others already showed differentiation into various hair structures. Such differentiated cells disappeared on day 3 and most of the cells cultured for 3 days were undifferentiated. Cells cultured for 6 days were differentiated showing inner root sheath cell, hair cortical cell and medulla cell structures. The characteristics of these cultured cells corresponded well to those of in vivo cells of the hair tissues from the back skin of 7-day-old C3H mice. On day 13 degeneration occurred in the cultured cells. In none of these cultures were mesenchymal cells, such as fibroblasts, found. The present electron microscopic study reveals that immature cells obtained from mouse hair tissues proliferate in vitro and differentiate into several subpopulations corresponding to those of in vivo cell layers of hair tissues. The present culture technique may be useful for studies of hair cell growth and differentiation.

    Notizen: Summary Human eccrine sweat glands were embedded in Lowicryl K4M. Cytokeratin proteins and blood group H antigen were localized by applying a postembedding immunogold method using a monoclonal antikeratin antibody and the lectin Ulex europaeus I. The antikeratin antibody labeled intermediate filaments in the secretory coil and dermal duct. Within dark secretory cells bundles of filaments criss-crossing the cell were labeled. Within the luminal cells of the dermal duct filaments arranged parallel to the cell surface and lying in the apex of the cell were labeled, too. The association of keratin filaments with desmosomes was visualized demonstrating their subcellular connection with other cell organelles. The desmosomes themselves remained unlabeled. The lectin Ulex europaeus I is a blood group H specific lectin and binds to α-l-fucosyl-containing glycoproteins. Dark cells of the secretory coil reacted with the lectin. Here the secretory granules, the lateral cell membranes, and the microvilli membranes were labeled. The endoplasmatic reticulum, the Golgi complex, and transport vesicles were not labeled, although the glycoprotein synthesis is considered to be located in the Golgi complex. Thus, either the number of α-l-fucose molecules in the Golgi is too low to be detected by the technique employed or the determinant of blood group H antigen is released after the secretory granules and transport vesicles leave the Golgi complex.

    Notizen: Summary Up to now, bicomponent keratohyalin has only been described for rat epithelium and human intraepidermal sweat ducts and fetal nail organ cells. In normal human interductal epidermis, the keratohyalin appears homogeneous, osmiophilic and stellate in shape. Under pathological conditions, bicomponent keratohyalin has been observed in different palmoplantar keratoses and has therefore been thought to be associated with abnormal keratosis. We studied the keratinization process in normal human plantar epidermis, in which keratohyalin was found to exhibit several morphological differences as compared to that seen in non-ridged skin. The most striking feature was seen in upper granular cells, where the keratohyalin granules consisted of two components of differing electron density. The electron-dense component formed the main part of the composite granule and was found in the cytoplasm of lower and upper granular cells. The less-electron-dense component was attached to the main component and appeared in the cytoplasm of upper granular cells, forming the convex contact zone. No intranuclear osmiophilic inclusions were present. The respective electron densities of the two keratohyalin components of ridged skin were obviously different to that of the bicomponent keratohyalin granules seen in the epidermal sweat-duct cells of the same specimen. These findings indicate the presence of at least two different types of keratohyalin proteins in normal human ridged skin. They can be distinguished at the electron-microscope level and differ from the keratohyalin of human non-ridged skin as well as from bicomponent keratohyalin granules derived from human epidermal sweat-duct cells or from rat epithelium.

    Notizen: Summary The pathogenesis of a rare form of the ichthyotic diseases, ichthyosis hystrix Curth-Macklin, was investigated by immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy. Monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) against keratins expressed in normal basal cells (PKK2 and KA1), Mabs against keratins only present in normal fetal skin (PKK1), and Mabs against keratins 1, 2, 10, and 11 (KA5 and K8.60) were used. The Mabs reacting with normal basal cells showed an increased reaction with many cell layers. The Mab PKK1 distinctly reacted with the basal cell layer, suggesting an expression of fetal keratins. Electron microscopic study of both normal-looking and involved skin revealed the keratinization disorder characterized by tonofilament shells, perinuclear vacuoles, and binuclear keratinocytes. The results suggest that there is no prematurity of keratinization, but rather a pathological expression of specific keratin genes leading to expression of fetal keratins in this form of ichthyosis hystrix.

    Notizen: Summary The ultrastructural, light microscopical and immunological features of twelve cases of acute childhood leukemia are described. Nine cases were unclassifiable by light microscopy, morphology and cytochemistry, and three were difficult to classify because of a low percentage of Sudan-Black B positive blasts. By means of electron microscopy (including peroxidase cytochemistry), two main groups were seen: 1. Acute myeloid leukemia, in which could be distinguished a) a more differentiated myeloid leukemia, b) a leukemia with megakaryoblastic involvement and c) a minimally differentiated acute myeloid leukemia with granules present and 2. lymphoblastic leukemia. One case could not be classified. The first group included two possible cases of a hybrid leukemia with CD19 or CD10 positivity as well as ultrastructural peroxidase activity. We conclude that electron microscopy aids to further classification of minimally differentiated and hybrid acute leukemias.

    Notizen: Summary A correlative light and electron microscopic investigation was undertaken to determine the morphology and distribution of catecholamine (CA)-containing axon terminals in the hypoglossal nucleus (XII) of the rat. This was accomplished immunocytochemically with antibody to tyrosine hydroxylase (TH). The major findings in this study were the following: 1) Immunoreactive profiles were found throughout XII and included unmyelinated axons, varicosities, axon terminals and dendrites; 2) Nonsynaptic immunoreactive profiles (preterminal axons, varicosities) were more frequently observed (55.2%) than synaptic profiles (43.5%); 3) CA-containing axon terminals ending on dendrites were more numerous (71.8%) than those synapsing on somata (25.4%) or nonlabeled axon terminals (2.7%); 4) The morphology of labeled axon terminals was variable. Axodendritic terminals typically contained numerous small, round agranular vesicles, a few large dense-core vesicles and were associated with either a symmetric or no synaptic specialization, axosomatic terminals were often associated with a presynaptic membrane thickening or a symmetric synaptic specialization and contained small, round and a few elliptical-shaped vesicles, while axoaxonic synapses formed asymmetric postsynaptic specializations; and 5) CA-positive dendritic processes were identified in XII. These findings confirm the CA innervation of XII, and suggest a complex, multifunctional role for CA in controlling oro-lingual motor behavior.

    Notizen: Abstract Over a 22-year period, eith patients affected with severe systemic or polyarticular juvenile chronic arthritis (JCA) developed systemic amyloidosis with nephrotic syndrome. They were treated with chlorambucil over 5–192 months (mean=44 months). With treatment, an abrupt decrease in the severity of JCA was observed in six patients but two patients were chlorambucil resistant. After a mean follow-up period of 10 years from onset of renal symptoms, one chlorambucil-resistant patient died of end-stage renal failure; two patients have a persistent nephrotic syndrome; and five patients are free from proteinaria, of whom one has developed hypertension. A good correlation was observed between the response of the rheumatic disease to chlorambucil treatment and the clinical course of renal symptoms. Fourteen renal biopsies were performed in these eight patients. In all, amyloid deposits were of the AA type, which persisted on repeat biopsies. In addition, 15%–60% of glomeruli had become globally sclerotic by the second or third biopsies. At the ultrastructural level, modifications in the structure of amyloid deposits and reparative changes of the glomeruli, characterized by partial restoration of glomerular architecture, were observed in three patients with a favourable clinical course.

    Notizen: Abstract Inborn errors involving the oxidative metabolism of fatty acids may present clinically with a Reye syndrome-like picture. This case report of a patient with medium-chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency illustrates that electron microscopy may help to differentiate this disorder from Reye syndrome even if a liver biopsy is performed in a patient who recovered from an acute metabolic decompensation. Together with this case, a review of the few reports in the literature of pathological findings in MCAD deficiency is given. Changes uncharacteristic for Reye syndrome are a largedroplet steatosis and the presence of distinctive mitochondrial abnormalities on electron microscopy. The detection of an electron dense mitochondrial matrix and a widened space of inner mitochondrial membranes rules out Reye syndrome and is suggestive of a disorder of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation.

The number of nerve fibres per unit area of the corpus callosum was decreased in PSVE by 18–26%. The loss of nerve fibres in the corpus callosum can play a role in inducing the cognitive deficit of PSVE, on the basis of the loss of nerve fibres in the cerebral hemispheres.

    Notizen: Summary In Alzheimer-type dementia brains, numerous “amyloid-rich primitive plaques (PPs)” were observed with β-protein immunostaining and periodicacid methenamine (PAM) staining. These amyloid-rich primitive plaques were accompanied by various degrees of small argyrophilic rod-like, granular or filamentous structures. Routine and modified-PAM electron microscopy revealed many bundles and flecks consisting of amyloid fibrils scattered widely throughout the plaques. Degenerate neurites, astrocytic processes and bundles of glial fibres also participated in the formation of the plaques. The similarities and differences between these amyloid-rich primitive plaques and diffuse plaques are described.

    Notizen: Summary This study was designed to examine the vascular system of human xenotransplanted tumors on nude mice with different complementary morphometrical and morphological methods. The vascular system shows a chaotic arrangement. There is an extreme heterogeneity in the vascular distribution and density. Large avascular regions could be identified in several non-necrotic tumors. There was no clear difference in the vascular density between the center and the periphery of the tumors, nor was there any zonal correlation for the distribution of the necrosis. With three-dimensional corrosion casts it could be demonstrated that clusters of vessels were directly beneath areas almost free of vessels. In the center, vessels often form a sinusoidal system with numerous blind ends without clearly discernible endothelial cells. Numerous irregular tumor-cell-lined sinusoids are visible next to endothelial-lined vessels with transmission electron microscopy. With scanning electron microscopy it could be demonstrated that large-calibre endotheliazed vessels were found in the direct vicinity or in the center of non-viable zones. Even large-calibre vessels have a capillary wall structure. Sometimes, a basement membrane cannot be observed at all or only incompletely. There are numerous indications of vascular discontinuities and leaks with a widespread intercellular occurrence of blood cells.

    Notizen: Summary The accumulation of mast cells in the testicular interstitium of neonatally estrogen-treated rats was studied from 15 to 90 days of age. The maturation of these cells was assessed by ultrastructural analysis and their histochemical properties were examined with the sequential alcian blue-safranin staining method. The first identifiable mast cells appeared in the testis at 17–20 days of age, as immature cells with proliferative capacity. The density of mast cells increased up to 45 days of age, showing a slight decrease from 45 to 90 days of age. Before 45 days of age, most mast cells showed alcian blue-stained granules, whereas at 45 days of age, most cells presented a mixture of alcian blue and safranin-stained granules. From this age onward, most cells were stained with safranin. These maturational changes were well-correlated with their ultrastructural features. Mast cells presented few and heterogeneous immature granules up to 45 days of age, and many uniform electron-dense granules at 90 days of age. These results indicate that the testicular interstitium of neonatally estrogen-treated rats provides an adventageous environment for the recruitment, proliferation and maturation of connective tissue mast cells.

    Notizen: Summary Keratin filaments of epithelial- and taste-bud cells in the circumvallate papillae of adult and developing mice were studied by immunocytochemistry using monoclonal antikeratin antibodies (PKK2 and PKK3) and by conventional electron microscopy. Elongated cells (type-I,-II, and-III cells) of the taste buds were stained by PKK3 antibody, which reacts with 45-kdalton keratin, whereas basal cells of the taste buds and surrounding epithelial cells showed negative staining with PKK3. Such PKK3-reactive cells occurred at 0 day after birth, when taste-buds first appeared in the dorsal surface epithelium of the papillae. Thus 45-kdalton keratin seems to be an excellent immunocytochemical marker for identifying taste-bud cells. Epithelial cells in all layers of the trench wall and basal layer cells of the dorsal surface contained densely aggregated bundles of keratin filaments that reacted with PKK2 antibody, but not with PKK3. In contrast, taste-bud cells and spinous and granular layer cells of the dorsal surface possessed loose aggregated bundles of filaments that reacted with PKK3, but not with PKK2. These results suggest that the aggregation and distribution pattern of keratin filaments may reflect differences in the keratin subtypes that comprise these filaments.

    Notizen: Summary The effect of vitamin A-deficiency on jejunal Paneth cells in rats was investigated. Crystalloid particles were observed in secretion granules of Paneth cells from 6 out of 8 rats with vitamin A-deficiency. The particles were similar to those found in Paneth cells under other experimental conditions. Using an immuno-electron-microscopic technique we demonstrated a clear lysozyme immunoreactivity of these particles. In 2 vitamin A-deficient rats tubular structures have been detected in addition to the crystalloid particles. Crystalloid particles or tubular structures were not detectable in a control group of 8 vitamin A-supplemented rats. The morphological alterations of Paneth cells may be correlated to an impaired local immunity of the intestine during vitamin A-deficiency.

    Notizen: Summary The ultrastructure of peroxisomes in the proximal nephron tubules of bovine kidney cortex was studied using ultrathin-sectioning, diaminobenzidine cytochemistry for the visualization of catalase, and by freeze-fracture. Peroxisomes in this nephron segment are up to 1.5 μm in diameter and exhibit a peculiar angular shape, which is probably related to the occurrence of multiple straight plate-like inclusions (marginal plates) in the matrix of peroxisomes; they lie directly underneath the peroxisomal membranes. The peroxisomal membrane in such regions follows the outline of the marginal plate. The peculiar shape of peroxisomes allows their unequivocal identification in freeze-fracture preparations. Peroxisomal membranes are recognized by their flat, often rectangular appearance. Intramembrane particles are much more numerous on P-fracture faces than on E-fracture faces. A crystalline lattice-structure with a periodicity of approximately 10 nm can be observed on the flat rectangular areas of E-fracture faces. This lattice structure is intensified after prolonged freeze-etching. Intramembranous particles seem to be superimposed over this pattern. The crystalline pattern on the E-fracture faces of peroxisomal membranes is probably not a membrane structure but it reveals the structure of the membrane-associated marginal plates. A cast of the marginal-plate surface may be generated by a collapse of the peroxisomal membrane half onto the immediately underlying matrix inclusion.

    Notizen: Summary Certain populations of arginine vasopressin (AVP) neurons in the magnocellular paraventricular nucleus became immunoreactive for neuropeptide Y (NPY) when rats were treated with colchicine or monosodium glutamate (MSG). The co-storage of these peptides was examined by empooying a post-embedding electron-microscopic immunohistochemistry technique using goldlabeled antibodies to the two peptides. In colchicinetreated rats, the neuronal perikarya contained numerous secretory granules showing co-storage of the two peptides. The cells of the MSG-treated rats were characterized by having well-developed Golgi bodies with the granular structures also co-storing the two peptides, although the secretory granules in the perikarya were rather fewer than in the colchicine-treated rats. It is concluded that the destruction of the arcuate nucleus by MSG-treatment may potentiate the synthesis of NPY in AVP neurons, the synthesis of which is latent in intact animals.

    Notizen: Summary Ultrastructural and cytochemical features of embryo development during anther and free microspore culture inBrassica napus have been followed from the late uninucleate microspore stage through the first embryonic division. On transfer to culture, the microspore cytoplasm possesses a large vacuole, often containing electron opaque aggregates, and a peripheral nucleus. Mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum and starch-free plastids are distributed throughout the cytoplasm. The conditions of culture induce a number of major changes in the cytoplasmic organisation of the microspore. First, the central vacuole becomes fragmented allowing the nucleus to assume a central position within the cell. Secondly, starch synthesis commences in the plastids which, in turn, are seen to occupy a domain investing the nucleus. Thirdly, the cell develops a thick fibrillar wall, situated immediately adjacent to the intine of the immature pollen wall. Finally, the microspores develop large cytoplasmic aggregates of globular material. The nature of this substance remains unknown, but it remains present until the young embryos have reached the 30 cell stage. The first division of cultured microspores destined to become embryos is generally symmetrical, in contrast to the asymmetric division seen in normal development in vivo. Consideration is given to the differences observed between embryos developing from anthers and free microspores in culture.

    Notizen: Summary Localization of acid phosphatase in mammary glands of lactating rats was studied by both biochemical and cytochemical methods. Cytochemically, acid phosphatase activity was detected by using lead citrate as the capture agent for the inorganic phosphate released from p-nitrophenyl phosphate. The activity was predominantly localized in the lumina of the endomembrane system and in the milk that had been secreted into the alveolar lumen. Biochemically, acid phosphatase was present in all the subcellular fractions with higher activities in the membrane-associated fractions. The localization of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatases within the endomembrane system of fully lactating rat mammary tissue suggests a possible role for these enzymes in milk secretory processes.

    Notizen: Summary The primary leaf, epicotyl, and root cells ofVigna sinensis seedlings grown continuously in a 0.08% colchicine solution, become microtubule-free and polyploid. In meristematic root cells a tubulin transformation is detected 1–3 h after the treatment had begun. Tubulin strands are organized at the positions of the pre-existing microtubules. Frequently, the strands converge on or are organized in the cortical cytoplasmic zone where in normal cells the preprophase microtubule band (PMB) is assembled. In meristematic root cells subjected to a 6–12 h colchicine treatment, the tubulin strands become perinuclear, entering the cortical cytoplasm at regions close to the nucleus. One day after the onset of the treatment, tubulin generally forms a continuous reticulum of interconnected strands in all the organs examined. In most cells this reticulum surrounds the nucleus partly or totally or lies close to it, exhibiting variable configurations in different cells. After prolonged treatments, the organization of the tubulin reticulum changes further. Now this consists of crystal-like structures interconnected by thin strands. On thin sections of fixed tissue the tubulin strands consist of paracrystalline material. The distribution of this material in the affected cells coincides with that of tubulin reticulum visualized by immunofluorescence. In transverse planes each strand exhibits circular subunits arranged close to one another in a hexagonal pattern but in longitudinal ones variable images were observed. The paracrystalline material persists in root cells subjected to an 8-day continuous colchicine treatment. The immunolabeled strands seem to be composed of tubulin-colchicine complexes and not pure tubulin.

    Notizen: Summary The purpose of the present study was to clarify morphological differences in lipofuscin or so-called age pigments observed in the spiral ganglion cells of both young and adult rat groups and to characterize the size and structure of ceroid pigment granules generated in vitamin-E-deficient rats. The results showed different patterns of lipofuscin distribution in the two groups. The adult rat group had large aggregated lipoid, dark pigment granules of irregular shape in the cytoplasm. In contrast, the young group had small numbers of small, dense homogeneous granules, suggesting higher Schwann cell phagocytic activity. The ceroid pigments apparently included numerous vesicles and droplets of more variable density and size than the lipofuscin pigments appearing in the non-treated older animals. Both lipofuscin and ceroid pigments developing in such non-dividing cells are produced as a result of peroxidation reactions, so that the more they accumulate in the cytoplasm the more likely cell function deteriorates. The present study has shown that lipofuscin/ceroid granules are generated in the spiral ganglions under either endogenous (aging) or exogenous (vitamin E deficiency) conditions.

Gold labeling was observed on the fibrous structure of the tectorial membrane, the basilar membrane and the spiral limbus. The labeling was also observed on the cuticular plate of the hair cells, the head and cone of the pillar cells and the head plate of Deiters' cells and other supporting cells. Collagen or cytoskeletal glycoproteins are suggested to be the source of the sialic acid in these structures.

    Notizen: Summary The mesothelial cells of Reissner's membrane in guinea pigs were found to be connected by junctional complexes. No cell discontinuities or gaps were observed by scanning or transmission electron microscopy. These results are not in accordance with previous studies. They were achieved by in vivo vascular perfusion fixation, handling of cochleae in protective specimen carriers, thiocarbohydrazide treatment and continuous dehydration. Findings in the present study indicate that the interepithelial space between the epithelial and mesothelial cell layers constitutes a specific compartment which must be considered when examining solute transport over Reissner's membrane.

    Notizen: Three staining procedures to detect sperm acrosome integrity were compared via electron microscopy. Stains were applied to epididymal, freshly ejaculated, in vivo capacitated, and sonicated sperm cells in addition to spermatozoa displaying sequentially removed plasma and outer and inner acrosomal membranes. Sequential membrane removal procedures resulted in removal of plasma membranes from 73% of all sperm cells, removal of plasma and outer acrosomal membranes from 74% of all sperm cells, and removal of plasma and outer and inner acrosomal membranes from 87% of all sperm cells as determined by electron microscopy. Live/dead staining results were not statistically different from subjective microscopic motility evaluations (P 〈 0.005) for epiddymal, sonicated, freshly ejaculated, and in vivo capacitated sperm samples. All three stains assessed were similarly capable of detecting the acrosome status of freshly ejaculated and of sonicated spermatozoa compared to data obtained by electron microscopy (P = 0.010). However, only the Bryan-Akruk stain afforded data that were closely correlated with data obtained via electron microscopy for all sperm types assessed; the latter included in vivo capacitated spermatozoa and sperm cells rendered free of plasma membranes. Results confirmed an earlier report by successfully effecting sequential removal of rabbit acrosomal membrances and documented use of the Bryan-Akruk acrosomal stain for evaluation of sperm cell popualtions for fertilizing ability. These findings should prove useful in further investigations of mechanisms involved in achievement of fertilizing ability by rabbit spermatozoa.

    Notizen: We have extended the observations of previous transmission electron microscopy studies of sperm-egg fusion to include those of freeze-fracture replicas showing sperm-egg interactions before, during, and following sperm head fusion with the egg membrane. Hamster eggs were incubated with hamster sperm under polyspermic conditions and were observed after a period of 5-30 minutes. After fixation, the eggs and sperm were exposed to filipin, which binds β-OH-sterols to form visible complexes in freeze-fracture replicas. Filipin can act as a marker for egg plasma membrane wherein it is abundant, while filipin is relatively scarce in the acrosome-reacted hamster sperm membrane, found only in the plasma membrane of the equatorial segment. The earliest sperm-egg interactions are observed between the egg microvilli and the perforatorium and the equatorial segment of the sperm, and the initial fusion between egg and sperm occurs in the vicinity of the equatorial segment. At later stages of fusion involving the postacrosomal segment, a clear line of demarcation is observed between the filipin-rich egg membrane and the filipin-poor sperm postacrosomal segment, suggesting that filipin binding lipids from the egg intercalate into the sperm membrane following membrane fusion. The anterior segment of the sperm does not fuse with the egg but is instead incorporated into a cytoplasmic vesicle derived from both sperm and egg membranes. In this latter step, filipin-sterol complexes are not found in sperm-derived membranes suggesting that there may be barriers to the movement of filipin binding lipids from the egg into these sperm membranes.

    Notizen: Expression of the bindin gene was examined in testicular cells of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus. In situ hybridization studies, using an 35S-labeled antisense RNA probe transcribed from a bindin cDNA, reveal that bindin mRNAs are localized in spermatogenic cells displaced towards the lumens of maturing testicular acini. Little or no hybridization is observed in spermatogenic cells displaced towards the perivisceral epithelium or in somatic cells of the testis. A similar localization of the bindin protein itself is observed using a rhodamine-conjugated polyclonal antibody against bindin, which shows a punctate immunofluorescence pattern in late spermatogenic cells. Immunogold labeling of ultrathin sections and electron microscopy reveal that this punctate immunofluorescence is an apparent result of localized deposits of bindin in intracellular vesicles. Through the terminal stages of spermatogenesis, these bindin-containing vesicles apparently fuse to form the single acrosomal vesicle of the mature spermatozoon. These results indicate (1) that bindin mRNAs are transcribed relatively late in spermatogenesis, (2) that bindin is translated soon after production of its mRNA, (3) that bindin quickly associates with intracellular vesicles during or soon after its synthesis, and (4) that these vesicles fuse to form the single acrosomal vesicle during the terminal stage of spermatogenesis.

    Notizen: We have developed an instrument capable of freezing transient intermediates in rapid biochemical reactions for subsequent freeze-fracturing, replication, and viewing by transmission electron microscopy. The machine combines a rapid mixing unit similar to one widely used in chemical kinetics (Johnson, 1986) with a propane jet freezing unit previously used to prepare static samples for freeze-fracturing (Gilkey and Staehelin, 1986). The key element in the system is a unique thin-walled flow cell of copper that allows for injection and aging of the sample, followed by rapid freezing. During freeze-fracturing, a tangential cut is made along the wall of the flow cell to expose the sample for etching and replication. The dead time required for mixing and injection of the reactants into the flow cell is less than 5 ms. Electronic controls allow one to specify, on a millisecond time scale, any time above 5 ms between initiation of the reaction and quenching by rapid freezing.

    Notizen: Evaporation of water cannot be fully avoided when an unsupported thin vitrified film of an aqueous suspension is prepared for cryo-electron microscopy. This results in increasing concentration of solute which could affect the observed material. We have quantitatively studied this effect by measuring the contrast of polystyrene spheres in a metrizamide solution. The drying effect is generally negligible when specimens are prepared on a hydrophilic perforated support but it is frequently important when hydrophobic films are used instead. A flow of humid air, double blotting with minimal exposure of the thin liquid film to the atmosphere, or an automatic plunger optimizing the blotting conditions are simple methods for reducing drying effects. With this third device acting on a hydrophilic supporting film, the increase of solute concentration is limited to less than 20%.

    Notizen: Counts of cells and nuclei from sections provide information central to studying structural changes in cells, tissues, and organs. This study considers some of the practical problems associated with counting cells with the newer random and serial sectioning methods of stereology and tests the hypothesis that similar cell counts can be obtained with both random and serial sectioning methods.Using irregularly shaped nuclei from alveolar cells of the goat lung, we compared cell counts derived from random (electron microscopic) and serial sectioning (light microscopic) methods. The results showed that both sectioning methods gave similar cell counts (107/cm3 of parenchyma) for type 1 epithelial cells (5.0 vs. 5.0; P=1.0), type 2 epithelial cells (8.6 vs. 9.8; P=0.42) and interstitial cells (34.6 vs. 33.4; P=0.64), provided that corrections were introduced for sectionrelated biases and that the nuclei of the random sectioning method were corrected for shape. We found counting biases of 5%-7% for nuclear shape and 16% for section compression. These observations support the hypothesis that similar cell counts can be obtained with random and serial sectioning, even when nuclei have irregular shapes.

    Notizen: For more than a century the Golgi method has been providing structural information about the organization of neuronal networks. Recent developments allow the extension of the method to the electron microscopic analysis of the afferent and efferent synaptic connections of identified, Golgi-impregnated neurones. The introduction of degeneration, autoradiographic, enzyme histochemical, and immunocytochemical methods for the characterization of Golgi-impregnated neurones and their pre-and postsynaptic partners makes it possible to establish the origin and also the chemical composition of pre-and postsynaptic elements. Furthermore, for a direct correlation of structure and function the synaptic interconnections between physiologically characterized, intracellularly HRP-filled neurones and Golgi-impregnated cells can be studied. It is thought that most of the neuronal communication takes place at the synaptic junction. In the enterprise of unravelling the circuits underlying the synaptic interactions, the Golgi technique continues to be a powerful tool of analysis.

    Notizen: We have compared the biochemical expression of cholinergic enzymes with the morphological differentiation of efferent nerve fibers and endings in the cochlea of the postnatally developing mouse. Choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) are present in the newborn cochlea at specific activities 63% and 25%, respectively, of their mature levels. The relative increases in ChAT, in AChE, and in its molecular forms over the newborn values start about day 4 and reach maturity by about day 10. The biochemical results correlate well with the massive presence of nerve fibers stained immunocytochemically for ChAT and AChE or enzymatically for AChE in the inner and outer hair cell regions. Ultrastructural studies, however, indicate the presence of only few vesiculated fibers and endings in the inner and outer hair cell regions. The appearance of large, cytologically mature endings occurs only toward the end of the third postnatal week. The discrepancy may be resolved in the electron microscope using the enzymatic staining for AChE. Labeling is seen on many nonvesiculated fibers and endings in the hair cell regions, suggesting that the majority of the efferent fibers in the perinatal organ may be biochemically differentiated but morphologically immature. The results may imply that the efferents to inner and outer hair cells develop earlier than indicated by previous ultrastructural studies. Moreover, the pattern of development suggests that in the cochlea, as in other tissues, the biochemical differentiation of the efferent innervation may precede the morphological maturation.

    Notizen: During the past two decades new techniques have been developed to directly test the dogma that neuronal structure is correlated with neuronal function. In the earliest experiments, Procion yellow was injected into neurons after they had been characterized physiologically; these neurons were then viewed through the light microscope. Recent advances in the method generally employ horseradish peroxidase as the dye which is injected since it diffuses quite readily throughout the injected neuron and produces a stable reaction product for both light and electron microscopic studies. This review explores the utility of examining synaptic circuitry after physiologically recording from axons or neurons and then injecting horseradish peroxidase into them. As a model system, we studied the cat lateral geniculate nucleus and investigated, at the electron microscopic level, the synaptic contribution to this nucleus from retinogeniculate axons, from interneurons, and from the axon collaterals of neurons that project to visual cortex.

    Notizen: In the present study, we modified the technique described by Altman et al. (J. Histochem. Cytochem., 32:1217-1223, 1984) for rapid embedding of tissues in Lowicryl K4M. To attain good sections of the small intestine that contained villi, crypts, submucosa, and external muscle layers, we cut 100 μm slices of the full thickness of the wall with a vibratome before embedment and then deoxygenated the resin and tissue before polymerization. The sections we obtained compared favorably with the quality of sections from conventional resins.

    Notizen: Cholinergic synapses can be identified in immunocytochemical preparations by the use of monoclonal antibodies and specific antisera to choline acetyltransferase (ChAT), the synthesizing enzyme for acetylcholine (ACh) and a specific marker for cholinergic neurons. Electron microscopic studies demonstrate that the fibers and varicosities observed in light microscopic preparations of many brain regions are small-diameter unmyelinated axons and vesicle-containing boutons. The labeled boutons generally contain clear vesicles and one or more mitochondrial profiles. Many of these boutons form synaptic contacts, and the synapses are frequently of the symmetric type, displaying thin postsynaptic densities and relatively short contact zones. However, ChAT-labeled synapses with asymmetric junctions are also observed, and their frequency varies among different brain regions. Unlabeled dendritic shafts are the most common postsynaptic elements in virtually all regions examined although other neuronal elements, including dendritic spines and neuronal somata, also receive some cholinergic innervation. ChAT-labeled boutons form synaptic contacts with several different types of unlabeled neurons within the same brain region. Such findings are consistent with a generally diffuse pattern of cholinergic innervation in many parts of the central nervous system. Despite many similarities in the characteristics of ChAT-labeled synapses, there appears to be some heterogeneity in the cholinergic innervation within as well as among brain regions. Differences are observed in the sizes of ChAT-immunoreactive boutons, the types of synaptic contacts, and the predominant postsynaptic elements. Thus, the cholinergic system presents interesting challenges for future studies of the morphological organization and related function of cholinergic synapses.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung Das Nuclear-Channel-System ist eine runde bis ellipsoide Struktur, deren Tubuli querangeschnitten oder längsangeschnitten in eine elektronendichte Matrix eingebettet sind. Das NCS liegt meist der Kernmembran dicht an, die in diesem Bereich Einziehungen aufweist. Gelegentlich ist ein Kontakt der Kernmembran mit der Membran eines Tubulus zu beobachten. Im NCS sind Partikel festzustellen, die den 150 Å großen Partikeln des Nucleolus vergleichbar sind, was auf einen Gehalt des NCS an RNA schließen läßt. In hier vorliegenden Untersuchungen konnte das NCS in Zellkernen endometrialer Drüsenzellen während der mittleren und späten Proliferationsphase beobachtet werden. Diese Befunde sprechen gegen eine zwingende Abhängigkeit des Auftretens des NCS vom Zeitpunkt der Ovulation. Das NCS kann somit nicht als eine für postovulatorisches Endometrium typische Struktur angesehen werden. Offensichtlich bestehen zwischen den hormonellen Faktoren und der Ausbildung des NCS Beziehungen, deren Bedeutung bis heute nicht sicher beurteilt werden kann.
    Notizen: Summary The Nuclear Channel System (NCS) is a distinct endometrial pattern as observed by transmission electron microscopy. The NCS was identified in the present study in cell nuclei of endometrial glands during mid and late proliferation. These observations do not support the concept that the NCS develops at the ovulation, and is therefore not a typical post ovulatory structure. It is suggested that there are relations between hormonal factors and the development of the NCS which are as yet no clarified.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung Es wurden Leberbiopsien von 12 Frauen feinstrukturell-morphometrisch untersucht, die über einen Zeitraum von 2 Monaten bis zu 8 Jahren ein Kombinationspräparat zur hormonellen Antikonzeption eingenommen hatten. Die stereologischen Daten wurden bereits vorher erstellten Basiswerten für normale Lebern (Roessner et al., 1977) gegenübergestellt und auf signifikante Unterschiede hin überprüft (p〈0,001). Eine deutliche Volumenzunahme lysosomaler Zelleinschlüsse pro ml Hepatocyten und eine leichte Cytoplasmavergrößerung bei gleichzeitiger Verkleine-rung der Nuclei kennzeichnen die Veränderungen der Hepatocyten. Alle übrigen ermittelten Parameter lassen den Schluß zu, daß wesentliche Alterationen der Ultrastruktur der menschlichen Leber nach hormoneller Kontrazeption nicht auftreten. Ob damit auch funktionelle Alterationen auszuschließen sind, kann hier nicht beantwortet werden.
    Notizen: Summary Liver biopsies from 12 healthy women were investigated morphometrically — according to the methods of Weibel (1969). All women had taken an oral contraceptive agent during 2 til 76 months. The evaluated stereological datas were compared with base-line datas for normal human liver biopsies, which were elaborated in a previous investigation (Roessner et al., 1977). Statistical analysis was performed on an IBM 360/50 computer system, including F- and student's t-test. In the liver biopsy-specimen from the women, which were on oral contraceptives, the volume-density of lysosomes per ml hepatocytes shows a pronounced, significant (p〈0.001) increase. A moderate increase of cytoplasm is combined with decrease of nuclei-volume. The surface-densities of the rough and smooth endoplasmatic reticulum do not differ significantly from the datas calculated from normal human liver biopsies. All other datas too demonstrate that there are no striking changes in the ultrastructure of human liver, caused by oral contraceptives. Functional alterations however can not be excluded.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung Neun Fälle von Granuloma annulare in verschiedenen Entwicklungsstadien wurden elektronenmikroskopisch untersucht, insbesondere Kollagenveränderungen, das entzündliche Infiltrat und Gefäßalterationen. Die nekrobiotischen Veränderungen des Kollagens bestehen in Auflockerung der Bündel vom Rande her, Schwellung der Fibrillen mit Verlust ihrer Querstreifung, völliger Desintegration des Kollagens und Niederschlägen von mucinösen Substanzen, Fibrin und Glykogen. In 2 Fällen waren sogenannte “filamentöse quergestreifte Aggregationen” (= sog. “long-spacing collagen”) nachweisbar. In späteren Stadien zeigte sich Kollagenneubildung. Im Infiltrat sind vor allem Histiocyten/Makrophagen mit Übergängen zu Epitheloidzellen und Riesenzellen, daneben auch Lymphocyten und später Neutrophile identifizierbar. Gefäßveränderungen bestehen in Endothelschwellung und Basalmembranverdoppelungen. Es besteht ein perivasculäres Infiltrat, jedoch keine echte Vaskulitis. Die Ergebnisse sprechen dafür, daß die Nekrobiose des Kollagens ohne primäre Vaskulitis ein initiales Ereignis bei Granuloma annulare darstellt. Pathogenetisch wird ein Immungeschehen vom verzögerten Typ diskutiert.
    Notizen: Summary Nine cases of granuloma annulare at different stages of development were investigated electron microscopically. Special attention was given to collagen changes, to the cellular infiltrate, and to vascular changes. The necrobiotic changes of the collagen were: loosening of the fibers at the borders of the bundles; swelling and loss of cross-striation of the fibrils; and complete degradation of the collagen, with precipitation of mucinous and fibrin material and of glycogen. In 2 cases “cross-banded filamentous aggregations” were present. In later stages new collagen synthesis occurred. In the infiltrate, histiocytes/macrophages were seen developing into epithelioid and giant cells. In addition, numerous active lymphocytes and, at later stages, some neutrophils were found. Vascular changes consisted of endothelial swelling and duplications of the basal lamina. A perivascular infiltrate was present, but no distinct vasculitis was seen. Our results indicate that the necrobiosis of the collagen without primary vasculitis may be an initial event in granuloma annulare. A delayed hypersensitivity mechanism is discussed with regard to pathogenesis.

    Notizen: Summary The fine structure of the bone marrow in chronic megakaryocytic-granulocytic myelosis (CMGM) was studied in 5 nontreated patients to investigate possible malignant proliferation of megakaryocytes and the role of megakaryopoiesis in fibrillogenesis, terminating in osteomyelofibrosis. In comparison with normal megakaryopoiesis there is an enormous increase of the megakaryocytic cell line and many immature and atypical forms are seen. Most conspicuous are microforms, nuclear-cytoplasmic disorganization and nuclear inclusions. Asynchrony of maturation causes abnormal thrombocytogenesis with premature detachment of platelets resulting in immature and peculiar giant forms of thrombocytes. Besides megakaryocytes appearing superficially normal the maturation anarchy of many cells is so severe that by analogy with observations in other leukaemic cells these abnormalities are thought to be representative of a malignant growth. Moreover, there is a striking accumulation of microfibrils and single collagen fibres around megakaryoblasts. Since these cells contain all those organelles commonly associated with fibre production the initial step for fibrillogenesis may therefore arise from the megakaryoblasts prior to platelet release, or any fibroblast proliferation.

    Notizen: Summary Inflammatory cell infiltrates in ulcerative colitis have been investigated by means of the immunoperoxidase method and by electronmicroscopy. Considerable morphological and functional changes of the local plasma cell population have been found. The absolute number of plasma cells is raised with a marked increase of IgG-cells and a relative decrease of IgA-cells. In particular complement (C3) has been demonstrated at the basement membrane of the surface epithelium and between epithelial cells. The significance of these findings, as a local humoral immune response, is briefly considered, with regard to their possible pathogenetic importance in aggravating and perpetuating the disease.

    Notizen: Summary The distribution of mucosubstances in adenoid cystic carcinoma was investigated, and an attempt was made to characterize histochemically the various mucosubstances present. For these purposes the high iron diamine technique (HID), as well as the Astra blue, aldehyde fuchsin and Alcian blue staining methods were employed. Alcian blue was further combined with the periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) technique, the Alcian blue being applied at pH levels between 0.5 and 2.5. In addition the effects of neuraminidase and hyaluronidase treatment as well as methylation and acid hydrolysis procedures on the staining qualities were studied. Acidic mucosubstances with varying histochemical properties were present in different structures of the neoplasm. The characteristic pseudocyst, a major structural component of the neoplasm, stained strongly with HID, Astra blue, aldehyde fuchsin and Alcian blue at low pH. These staining reactions were markedly suppressed by hyaluronidase treatment, and are apparently attributable to the presence of chondroitin 4- and/or 6-sulfate. Employing the Alcian blue-critical electrolyte concentration technique, the basophilia of the pseudocysts was suppressed at a concentration of 0.5–0.6 M MgCl2, which might indicate polysaccharides of relatively low degree of sulfation. An additional, non-sulfated acid mucin could also be demonstrated in these structures. In certain duct and gland like structures of the tumours, a change in staining pattern from blue or blue-red to red could be observed after exposure of the sections to neuraminidase and subsequent staining with the Alcian blue (pH 2.5)-PAS sequence. Similar observations were also made when the pH of the Alcian blue was lowered to 1.5–1.0, as well as after acid hydrolysis. These findings afford evidence for the presence of a neuraminidase susceptive sialomucin in certain epithelial secretions of the tumor. At the ultrastructural level the replicated basement lamina of the pseudocysts displayed a strong positive reaction with the PA-CrA-silver staining technique. Furthermore, amorphous material within the lumina of small duct like structures also displayed a positive reaction. The amorphous material of the cystic compartments was less reactive.

The tumour cells showed an argyrophil reaction with the Grimelius technique and contained cytoplasmic secretory granules, but in contrast to previous reports were devoid of histochemically demonstrable biogenic amines. For routine diagnosis the argyrophil technique may be useful in differentiating this type of tumour from epidermoid carcinoma.

    Notizen: Summary Target and targetoid fibers in a muscle biopsy from a patient with paralysis of the deltoid and supraspinatus muscles were studied by light and electron microscopy. The probable cause of the neuropathy was tumor compression. Target and targetoid change was exclusively confined to hypertrophic or normal-sized fibers. Morphometric evaluation of the target and targetoid fibers showed no significant difference between them. With the electron microscope, up to 4 structural zones were seen in the typical target fiber but many were devoid of either zone 2 (halo) or zone 3, or both. It was conceivable that focal irregularity and streaming of Z-bands were the primary alterations in the process of target-targetoid fiber formation, and that this phenomenon was induced both by partial residual innervation as well as re-innervation.

    Notizen: Summary The atherosclerotic lesions, associated with the celiac intimal smooth muscle cushions, of four and five year old White Carneau pigeons were studied with the light and electron miscroscopes. Light microscopic examination of the spontaneous lesions demonstrated large intimal cushions composed of smooth muscle, abundant collagen, clusters of foam cells and cholesterol crystal clefts. Ultrastructural examination of the intimal atheroma revealed dilatations between apposing endothelial cells which contained a flocculent material, similar to that seen in the subendothelial space. The subendothelial compartment contained abundant collagen, extracellular lipid, vesiculated material and cell processes which contained a flocculent matrix and tubular-like elements. In addition, fibroblast-like interlaminar cells were often observed. Numerous intimal smooth muscle cells were seen which displayed varied morphology. Abundant foam cells were also present within the intimal atheromas. The presence of atherosclerotic lesions in preexisting intimal smooth muscle cushions suggests that hemodynamic factors may be important in the progression of these spontaneous lesions. Endothelial cell dilatations may provide an important route of transport for circulating elements which may accumulate within the subendothelial space. Morphologically, it appears that the smooth muscle cells undergo modification and may represent the precursors of foam cells in this species.

    Notizen: Summary Ultrastructural findings in the liver in a case of childhood cystinosis are reported. Crystalline structures were found mainly in Kupffer cells. The presence of dark cells, with or without crystals, was the most striking feature observed. Such cells have already been noted within the kidney on one occasion when it was shown that the dark substance was L-cystine (Spear et al., 1971). In this case identical dark material was also found extracellularly. The data shows that free cystine can fill cell cytoplasm and extracellular spaces and the possibility that cystine overproduction may take place in the hyaloplasm should be considered. Extracellular location of cystine in the tubules might account for an increase in epithelial permeability and thus for the Fanconi syndrome.

    Notizen: Summary The surface features of the ependymal lining of the habenular complex in rats, aged between three weeks and nine months, were studied by means of scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The ependyma of the medial habenular nucleus is heavily ciliated, the cilia obscuring underlying substructure in SEM — preparations. On the habenular commissure most cilia are arranged in tufts. Cilia are provided with segmental indentations and occasional apical thickenings. Vesicular protrusions of the ependymal cytoplasm into the ventricular lumen and the frequent occurrence of homogeneous supraependymal globules were interpreted as signs of ependymosecretory activity of nucl. hab. med. Supraependymal cells are most numerous on the anterior and superior surface of the habenular commissure. Cells presenting features identical to Kolmer (epiplexus) cells were identified on the ventricular surface of nucl. hab. med. in one specimen showing degenerative changes of undetermined aetiology in the habenular nuclei. It is therefore suggested that such cells need not necessarily be restricted to the choroid plexus. Supraependymal unmyelinated axons are particularly numerous on both nucl. hab. med. and commiss. hab. They make desmosome contacts (maculae adherentes) with the ependymal plasmalemma. Contacts presenting all features of typical synapses were not encountered. The vesicle population of the axonal profiles mainly comprises 35–50 nm translucent round vesicles besides small numbers of 60–100 nm dense-cored vesicles and large pleiomorphic vesicles. Most probably the axons belong to the well-established dense population of serotonergic axons in the dorsal part of the third ventricle.

    Notizen: Summary Thyroid hormone exerts a powerful influence on CNS growth and maturation. Hypothyroidism early in life has long been known to cause disturbances in innate behavior, motor performance, severe and frequently irreversible mental retardation. In this deficiency, depressed caudate neurogenesis, cell migration and neuropil development during the rapid period of CNS growth may contribute to the clinical picture of perceptual handicaps often seen in cretins. Light microscopic and Golgi studies of the developing caudate nucleus in thyroid deficiency have been carried out to help attain insights into the mechanisms whereby the extrapyramidal system regulates motor function. The ultrastructural study of caudate nuclear cytogenesis and synaptogenesis in normal and hypothyroid states provides more detailed information for further analysis of the problem. Hypothyroidism was induced from birth by adding propylthiouracil to the food and drinking water of lactating dams. Linear development of the caudate nucleus of both normal and hypothyroid rats at ages 8, 14, 20, 30 and 42 days was studied by electron microscopy. Thyroid glands were examined by light microscopy to assess the normal and deficient states. Immature cells, primitive processes and synapses were the characteristic features of the 8-day-old normal caudate nucleus. Distinctively wide cisternae of the rough endoplasmic reticulum, loosely packed Golgi apparatus and chromatin clumps throughout the nuclei of the neurons were significant early morphologic variations. The dramatic cytoarchitectural maturation in the 14- and 20-day normal caudate neuropil points to the rapidity of developmental rate. After the growth spurt of the first three weeks a maturational plateau occurs which is characterized by well-formed neuronal cytoplasmic organelles, myelinated and non-myelinated axons, axon terminals, dendrites and their spines, and synapses. Thyroid deficiency causes a marked maturational delay of approximately 7 days in caudate neuronal proliferation, the elaboration of neuronal networks and the attainment of mature synaptic contents and membranes. This delay is evidenced by comparison of the structural similarities between 8-day-old normal and 14-day-old deficient rats; and additional comparisons between the 14-day-old normal and 20-day-old hypothyroid rats. A rapid “catch up” process in fine structural morphogenesis takes place in the period between days 14 and 30 in the deficient animals. Repression of thyroid function does not entirely prevent development of the caudate nucleus but allows a fairly extensive, though critically incomplete degree of maturation. This imperfection is manifested by a decrease in the number of synaptic contacts that persists even after the rapid “catch up” phenomenon of caudate synaptogenesis.

On the 4th day some of these cells came into close contact with the basement membrane of the dorsal iris epithelium. The bases of the epithelial cells were flat at this stage. Towards the 10th day they formed cytoplasmic processes which did not penetrate the basement membrane. Fine mesenchymal cytoplasmic processes and a large number of extracellular fibrils developed in the epithelial-mesenchymal interface. The fine mesenchymal processes came into close contact with the basement membrane of the posterior iris epithelium but did not penetrate it. Collagen-like material was observed within the cisternae of the rough ER of the mesenchymal cells at certain stages of development. Both, the mesenchymal cells and the collagen fibrils adjacent to the posterior iris layer disappeared by the 10th day when the entire iris epithelium was completely pigmented. The possible origin of the collagen fibrils and the differentiation of the posterior iris epithelium are discussed.

    Notizen: Summary Primary 9+0 cilia have been found in the embryonic and the adult human heart. Proximally the cilia show the typical (+0 filament arrangement. Rearrangement of the filaments occur in their distal regions. The cilia are usually found in deep invaginations of the cell membrane, but can also be found in a superficial position. Close connections are frequently found between cilia and thin cytoplasmic extensions from neighbouring cells.

    Notizen: Summary The otic, the lens and the nasal placodes have been examined in chick embryos between stages 10 and 18 of Hamburger and Hamilton. At the stage when each placode first becomes visible conspicuous differences have been seen in the surface morphology between those cells which will invaginate and form the placode and those which will remain on the surface of the head, forming the epidermis. The differences become more pronounced with increasing development. The placode cells possess many surface projections whilst the epidermal cells do not. These differences in surface morphology are related to other differences which are visible in TEM sections, the placode cells being highly columnar and extending the full depth of the placode, whilst the epidermal cells are cuboidal or even squamous. This modification in cell shape of the placode cells is correlated with the presence of longitudinally orientated microtubules. The mechanism of invagination is discussed and evidence is presented which supports the idea that there is a migration of cells into the placode from one side. Such a phenomenon would help to explain the asymmetrical structure of the placode, including the presence of the overhanging lip.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung Fünf Fälle von Psoriasis pustulosa wurden elektronenmikroskopisch untersucht. Die Hauptveränderungen im Corium bestanden in Capillardilatation mit intravasculären polymorphonukleären Leukocyten und Erythrocyten. Leukocyten traten durch die vasculären Spalten und Fenestrationen und wanderten durch das deutlich ödematöse Corium zur Epidermis. Lymphgefäße fanden sich ebenfalls. Histiocyten mit Langerhansgranula wurden in der Dermis und Epidermis beobachtet. Die morphologischen Veränderungen in der Epidermis waren abhängig von der Lokalisation und besonders stark ausgeprägt in der Nähe von voll entwickelten Pusteln in höheren Zellschichten. Früher beschriebene Befunde konnten bestätigt werden. Perinukleäre Cytolyse und andere Veränderungen in den Keratinocyten scheinen sekundär aufgrund des Ödems und der Ansammlung von Neutrophilen innerhalb der Epidermis zu entstehen. Immunologische Phänomene könnten hierfür verantwortlich sein.
    Notizen: Summary Five cases of psoriasis pustulosa were examined by electron microscopy. The main features within the dermis were dilated capillaries filled with polymorphonuclear leukocytes and red cells. Neutrophils passed out of the vessels through the gaps and fenestrations and migrated towards the epidermis throughout the distinctly edematous corium. Lymphatic vessels could be found. Histiocytes containing Langerhans granules were observed in the dermis and epidermis. The morphological changes of the epidermis depented on the place examined and were most evident near fully developed pustules in the upper layers. The presence of previously described morphological findings could be confirmed. Perinuclear cytolysis and other changes in the keratinocytes, however, seem to be secondary, resulting from edema and accumulation of neutrophils within the epidermis. Immunological phenomenona may be responsible for the latter event.

    Notizen: Summary Two sporadic cases of amyloid polyneuropathy with clinical features corresponding to the Portuguese type of this disease were studied. Histological examination of sural nerve demonstrated a marked loss of myelinated and unmyelinated fibers in the case 1 due to axonal degeneration, high content of fibers with segmental demyelination and the occurrence of several enlarged axons filled with the 10 nm filaments (so-called giant axons). In the case 2 there was total loss of unmyelinated axons and myelinated fibers were nearly completely lacking. In the development of changes in the myelinated fibers their direct compression by amyloid deposits seems to play an important role. It leads to the appearance of both axonal degeneration and segmental demyelination. The latter seems to be due to local compression and it may involve many fibers. In the light of observations reported by other authors the mechanism of changes developing in unmyelinated fibers is explained by the presence of changes in the cells of posterior root ganglia, however the question whether some abnormalities seen in unmyelinated axons could not be related to the pressure exerted by amyloid deposits directly to these fibers, remains open.

    Notizen: Summary Inclusions identical to those described in multiple sclerosis (MS) brain by Prineas (1975) have been seen by ultrastructural study of cerebral tissue in two elsewhere reported cases of Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML). The meaning of these formations, which have been suggested to be related to a special process of demyelination in MS, is discussed in the light of the hypotheses concerning the demyelination mechanism in PML. Whatever might be their significance, these cytoplasmic non viral inclusions are not specific for MS.

    Notizen: Summary The ultrastructure of visna, a slowly progressive meningo-encephalomyelitis of sheep, was studied in animals sacrificed one month after intracerebral inoculation of visna virus. The major pathological changes, representative of those seen during the first year after infection, consist of inflammation and minor focal destructive lesions of grey and white matter. The inflammatory infiltrates, both subependymal and perivascular as well as of the choroid plexus, were composed mainly of lymphocytes and macrophages with varying numbers of plasma cells. The demyelination seen was of the secondary or Wallerian type. There was no evidence of primary demyelination. Visna virions were not seen in any of the CNS material studied. The ultrastructural findings are compatible with the view that lesions in visna may be induced by a cell-mediated immune response. However, changes characteristic of an autoimmune reaction to myelin antigens were not observed.

    Notizen: Summary The pathological findings in four nerves and muscles and in one skin biopsies from four patients treated with perhexiline maleate for angina pectoris are reported. In every case, a muscular denervation atrophy and a decrease in the large diameter myelinated fibers were observed. Only one case showed a decrease of the total number of myelinated fibers, on quantitative studies. The electron microscopic study of each nerve displayed findings consistent with a predominant schwannian degeneration, associated with a few onion bulbs formations and, in two cases, with a mild wallerian degeneration. The most striking finding consisted in the presence of polymorphous membrane-bound inclusions reminding the morphology of lysosomal complex lipids. These structures were very abundant in Schwann cells, but they were seen also in fibrocytes, endothelial and pericytic cells. Similar inclusions were present in the single muscle and skin biopsies studied by electron microscopy. In the muscle, they were seen in muscular cells as well as in endothelial and pericytic cells. In the skin, similar inclusions were observed in endothelial, smooth muscle and sweat gland cells. These inclusions were difficult to identifiy in one micron thick sections, emphazing the need of ultrastructural study for diagnostic purposes.

    Notizen: Summary Ouabain, a specific inhibitor of active cation transport across cell membrane, was applied topically to brain surface of cats. The cerebral cortex to which 10−3 M ouabain was applied showed a spongy state, which was ultrastructurally revealed to be swelling of the neuronal cell processes, especially of dendrites. Astrocytes did not show swelling even in the most severely affected lesions. There was a marked increase in sodium with a slight increase of water in the most severely affected lesions. There was a marked increase in sodium with a slight increase of water in the cortex treated with 10−3 M ouabain. No evidence of increased vascular permeability was noted in the cortex, morphologically or biochemically. Electron microscopic cytochemistry to detect the sodium ion revealed that the increased sodium in the cortex accumulated in the swollen neuronal cell processes. It is speculated that neuronal rather than astrocytic elements might be highly dependent upon active cation transport, and that intracellular oedema in the brain tissue responsible for impairment of active cation transport might be related primarily to neuronal elements.

    Notizen: Summary In a muscle biopsy from a patient suffering about 2 years from an amyotrophic lateral sclerosis groups of atrophic fibres and target fibres were observed. By electron microscopic examination, amongst numerous parallel or spinal cisternae near the plasma membrane, single-membrane bound smooth tubular elements with a constant diameter of 200–300 Å occur in the central and intermediary zone of some target fibres. The connexion between these tubules and the terminal cisternae (triads) of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, suggest that this phenomenon seems to be a proliferation of the transversal-tubular system due to the partial denervation. Only a mechanical displacement of the T-tubules as a result of the destruction of the muscle fibres is not plausible, because the T-system volumetrically amounts only 0.3–0.5% of the muscle fibre.

    Notizen: Summary The development of human extraocular muscles (EOM) was studied in a series of fetal specimens (12–24 weeks gestation). EOM were evaluated by enzyme histochemistry (EZ) (NADH and ATPase), by differential phase contrast microscopy (DPC) and electron microscopy (EM). In the early fetus (14 weeks), there was no clear-cut sub-division into fibre types. A uniform histochemical reaction was seen with NADH while ATPase showed light and dark myotubes. Myotubes contained large central nuclei, prominent eccentric nucleoli, abundant glycogen granules, free ribosomes, numerous mitochondria, and dense and looser bundles of myofilaments. Mesenchymal cells undergoing mitosis and fibroblasts with prominent stacks of rough endoplasmic reticulum were scattered within endomysium. Mast cells with well formed cytoplasmic granules were found as early as 18–24 weeks. The same specimens by DPC showed differentiation into at least 4 different fibre types at 12 weeks. All the intramuscular nerves at 12–16 weeks were composed of unmyelinated fibres. At 18 weeks, myelinated axons were present. Morphologically immature end-plates devoid of junctional folds were found at 12 weeks. The motor innervation of some EOM appears to be derived from more than one axon (multiple innervated fibres). At 18 weeks gestational age, differentiation into fibre types became apparent by enzyme histochemistry. These histochemical and morphological findings suggest that morphologically mature endplates are not prerequisites for differentiation into muscle fibre types.

    Notizen: Summary Vibratome sections of hippocampus of adult rabbits were stained by a modified Hortega's silver-carbonate method. Impregnated materials were examined by electron microscopy to decide fine-structural characteristics of the resting microglia. Comparing their characteristics with those of macrophages, we came to the following conclusions:(1) Impregnated resting microglia in the hippocampus of adult rabbits can be identified as cells having distinct fine structures. (2) Resting microglia are morphologically different from macrophages or their precursor cells, and therefore, seem not to be hematogenous cells sojourning in the normal brain parenchyma.

The specificity of the infection for a given cell type is discussed.

    Notizen: Summary The ultrastructural findings in nerve biopsies from two cases of late onset metachromatic leukodystrophy were compared with those in cases of late infantile and juvenile onset. Hypertrophic changes and regenerating clusters were more evident in the late onset cases, in which macrophages were less frequent, presumably reflecting the chronicity of the disorder in this form. Inclusions within Schwann cells and endoneurial macrophages were similar in all four cases. Myelin figures, in which the periodicity of major dense lines was 8 nm, were present in Schwann cells associated with myelinated axons. The electron lucent zones between the major dense lines were bisected by lines of lesser electron density. These inclusions were probably related to myelin breakdown. All other inclusions displayed a periodicity of 5.8 nm and consisted of zebra bodies, vacuoles containing irregularly orientated lamellar material and stacks of flattened discs. These inclusions represented the metachromatic sulphatide deposits. Occasional inclusion bodies were observed within axons.

    Notizen: Summary An ultrastructural study of cerebral infarcts in spontaneously hypertensive rats 1–5 h after bilateral carotid artery occlusion was performed. The alterations of the neocortex consisted of shrinkage of the neurons surrounded by swollen astrocytic processes. Distension of the rough endoplasmic reticulum of the neuronal cytoplasm appeared early, while changes of the mitochondria were slight. Though there appeared slight to moderate perivascular astrocytic swelling, endothelial swelling was rare and there was no severe narrowing of the capillary lumen. There were no filling defects of colloidal carbon injected to the blood vessels of the ischemic brains. Ischemic neuronal alterations were proved to develop in the absence of severe morphological changes of the microvasculature in the developing cerebral infarcts in the present experimental model.

    Notizen: Summary Adult NMRI mice were inoculated intracerebrally with 1.5–5×102 pfu of the “neurovirulent” strain Ma1 of vaccinia virus. The animals usually became diseased on day 3 and died on day 5 or 6 p.i. Infectivity assay studies on the mouse brains yielded a steeply rising viral titer comparable with that exhibited by several other so-called neurovaccinia strains after intracerebral inoculation. Histological studies revealed a patchy leptomeningitis most apparent over the basal brain surface. Mononuclear elements of varied size were the most common infiltrate cells in the meningitic lesions. These often showed a pronounced hemorrhagic and necrotizing character. In some places, the cellular infiltrates within the subarachnoid space extended along the perforating vessels into the superficial cerebral cortex. By electron microscopy, all essential stages of virus morphogenesis including the discharge of mature virions could be seen in numerous mononuclear phagocytes and adventitial cells. In contrast to this, no unequivocal neuroectodermal cell showed morphologic evidence of productive viral infection. Likewise, no endothelia or vascular myocytes were encountered which contained newly formed virus particles. However, alterations of the walls of blood vessels and signs of disturbed vascular permeability were a frequent finding in the meningeal foci of inflammation as well as in and around the track left by the inoculating needle. Another ultrastructural feature of the meningitic lesions was the widespread occurrence of degenerating or disintegrating infiltrate cells both infected and uninfected ones. The virologic and morphologic findings observed in this model of experimental vaccinia virus meningo-encephalitis are discussed with regard to data previously published by other authors. The propensity of strain Ma1 of vaccinia virus (and most probably of other so-called neurovaccinia strains) for replication in mesenchymal cells in particularly emphasized.

    Notizen: Summary Malignant schwannomas of the trigeminal nerves were induced transplacentally by a single intravenous injection of 30 mg of N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea per kg of body weight into pregnant BD-IX rats on the 15th day of gestation. These neoplasms consisted of a pleomorphic population of Schwann cells and occasional fibroblasts. In order to preserve sterols the tumours were fixed in a digitonin-containing aldehyde solution. The electron microscope investigation of the tissues so treated revealed various structures: lamellar, tubular and complex formations were all observed. In addition, the unit membranes, including those of various cytoplasmic organelles, showed areas of increased contrast. The abundance of these fine structural configurations indicated the high sterol content of ethyl-nitrosourea-induced schwannomas.

    Notizen: Summary A study of a muscle biopsy has provided evidence of storage involvement of the skeletal muscle fibres in Fabry's disease. In the endothelial cells of the capillaries, the inclusions were more abundant and pleomorphic. Muscle satellite cells were spared. In the sensory nerve biopsy, the perineurial and endothelial cells contained lamellar bodies, but not the Schwann cells. There was a slight reduction of the number of the small myelinated fibres and of the unmyelinated fibres. An electron microscopic study of a muscle biopsy can be helpful in the diagnosis of the disease. The physiopathology of the pain attacks is still a matter for discussion.

    Notizen: Summary A recently recognised progressive disorder of central myelin in Dalmatian dogs is described. The disease is probably transmitted by autosomal recessive inheritance. The symptoms started at the age of 3–6 months and were dominated by visual deficiency and/or progressive locomotive abnormalities. Pathologically, the most consistent lesions were found bilaterally in the region of the centrum semiovale. The optic nerves were also frequently affected, the basal ganglia and spinal cord were affected infrequently. The main lesions were confined to myelin, while axons and nerve cells were spared, particularly in the early stages of the lesions. Numberous phagocytes were observed which contained engulfed myelin and other lipid breakdown products. Ultrastructurally and histochemically the disease differs from previusly described types of leucodystrophy.

    Notizen: Summary A sporadic case of tuberous sclerosis in a stillborn infant is reported. The death at the 31st week of gestation was presumably due to the development of enormous rhabdomyomas of the heart. The typical cerebral lesions were fully developed as in patients deceased later in life. The atypical cells found in the cortical tubers demonstrated ultrastructural features of reactive astrocytes. Moreover, they showed innumerable microvillilike projections on their surface and junctional complexes, mostly of the zonula adhaerens type, reminiscent of ependymocytes. The significance of such glio-epithelial cellular features is discussed.

    Notizen: Summary Following chronic administration of disulfiram to rats, changes of the brain were examined electron-microscopically. Pathological findings were observed in the nerve cells of the cerebral cortex and hypothalamus at later stage, and synaptic changes in the hypothalamus from initial stage. On the other hand, changes of myelinated fibers, neuroglias and capillaries were very slight. It was considered that neurons were affected more predominantly than other neuronal elements by the cytotoxic action of the drug, and that the synaptic changes of the hypothalamus might reveal chronic disturbance of noradrenergic transmission by inhibition of dopamine-β-hydroxylase. These ultrastructural findings might relate to the pathogenic mechanism of the disulfiram psychosis.
