    Notes: Summary Antibodies against Ro and La, including recombinant La and recombinant 60 kD-Ro, were determined by counter immunoelectrophoresis and ELISA in over 300 central European systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. The presence of both Ro and La antibodies was strongly associated with the MHC haplotype B8-C4AQ0-DR3-DQ2, the association being stronges for DR3. After exclusion of all B8-DR3 positive patients only DR3 positive patients still showed an increased incidence of Ro and La antibodies, suggesting DR3 as the primary association factor. High titers of La antibody, but not of 60 kD-Ro antibody, were also significantly associated with the presence of DR3. Other DR and DQ antigens or heterozygous DQ combinations were not significantly associated with Ro and La antibodies.

    Notes: Summary Antibodies against recombinant 52 kD-Ro, recombinant 60 kD-Ro and recombinant La protein were determined by ELISA in over 300 central European patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). A strong association with HLA-DR3 was found for antibodies against 52 kD-Ro and La, but not for recombinant 60 kD-Ro antibodies in the absence of antibodies against 52 kD-Ro or La. Ro/La negative SLE patients still showed an increased frequency of HLA-DR3 as compared to healthy controls. These results indicated that the preferential formation of Ro and La antibodies was not due to an unspecific stimulatory effect of HLA-DR3 but that the antibody response to certain defined proteins (52 kD-Ro and La) was influenced by MHC genes in SLE. Furthermore, the association of SLE with HLA-DR3 was independent of the effects of DR3 on the formation of 52 kD-Ro and La antibodies.

    L-Tyrosine-3-hydroxylase regulation in the brain: genetic aspects (1992)

    Notes: Summary L-tyrosine-3-hydroxylase (TH) is the first and rate limiting enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway of catecholamine neurotransmitters (dopamine, noradrenaline, adrenaline). Implication of dopamine (DA) in various psychopathological phenomena, such as schizophrenia, has considerably contributed to the intensity of investigation of basic biochemical regulation of TH by activation and induction. Here we consider a third, constitutional (genotypic) aspect of regulation and present evidence that differences in mesencephalic (TH/SN), striatal (TH/CS), and hypothalamic (TH/HT) TH activity between virtually isogeneic strains of mice can be explained by segregating genetic factors. Biometrical genetic analysis of progenitor strains and their crosses indicated significant additive gene effects for TH/SN, TH/CS, and TH/HT, whereas dominance effects were statistically non-significant. A monogenic model of inheritance for TH/SN and TH/CS could not be rejected, while more than one gene was indicated for TH/HT. Significant positive phenotypic correlations were found in genetically segregating populations among mesencephalic, striatal and hypothalamic TH activities. This would suggest that some common genetic factors (or linked genes) are involved in the genetic variation of all three traits. A genetic selection experiment to elucidate the cellular and biochemical mechanisms underlying these variations is in progress.

    Notes: Summary In order to elucidate the genetic abnormalities underlying lipoprotein disorders associated with coronary heart disease susceptibility, researchers have looked for candidate genes. The studies have focused particularly on the lipoprotein transport genes. Relatively common as well as rare mutations have already been identified in several of these genes. In addition, further metabolic and genetic studies indicate that some of these loci harbor significant, but as yet undefined, genetic variation. In the next few years, it is not unreasonable to expect that all or most of the significant mutations at these loci will be catalogued. It is too early to know whether this will be sufficient to explain the genetic basis of altered lipoprotein levels or whether new loci will need to be investigated. Additional candidate gene loci might be those coding for genes involved in intracellular cholesterol metabolism, cholesterol absorption, or insulin resistance. New loci may also be revealed by the technique of reverse genetics. A more complete understanding of the genetics of atherosclerosis susceptibility will probably also entail the identification of variants at genetic loci that control both the reaction of the blood vessel wall to atherogenic lipoproteins and the thrombosis system. Investigation of the genetic basis of coronary heart disease susceptibility remains a worthwhile and lively field, with important clinical and public health ramifications.

    Identifying sex differences in reading disability (1992)

    Topics: Education
    Notes: Abstract The issue of sex differences in reading disability has been of recent interest in relation to sex ratios in families with reading disabled children and to possible sex biases in referred populations. Data from a study of 570 twins are used to develop alternative definitions of reading disability that vary in the manner to which sex effects are taken into account. These definitions include discrepancies between reading quotients and IQ, the use of the regression of reading onto IQ and chronological age/reading age differences. In each case the reading and spelling disability was defined either separately for the sexes or based upon the data for the sexes combined and with and without an IQ〉90 exclusion criterion. The consequences of using the alternative definitions for prevalence, sex ratio and heritability are examined. The results demonstrate that the characteristics of reading disabled children vary with the way disability is defined. The excess of males seems to be a robust finding. Definitions that take into account differences in mean score for males and females reduce but do not eradicate the sex ratio. From the genetic analysis, there is no support for the suggestion that the genetic effect on reading is greater for females than males. It is concluded that the use of regression based procedures for identifying reading disability is desirable but that at present there is insufficient evidence to justify the adoption of separate regression procedures for the two sexes.

    Notes: Summary We have recently examined the exons encoding the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase domain and GLUT 4 in 30 subjects with Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus using a molecular scanning approach. The variant sequences Val-Met985 and Lys-Glu1068 of the insulin receptor and Val-Ile383 of GLUT 4 were each separately found in three different diabetic subjects. In a study of a Welsh population, the GLUT 4383 variant was found in three of 160 diabetic and none of the 80 control subjects. In this study, the same group of Welsh Type 2 diabetic and control subjects was analysed using allele-specific oligonucleotide hybridisation, single nucleotide primer extension and allele-specific restriction digestion to ascertain the frequency of the two insulin receptor mutations. The Val-Met985 mutation was found in none of the 160 Welsh Caucasian Type 2 diabetic subjects and two of 80 control subjects. The Lys-Glu1068 mutation removes a Sty 1 site and digestion of amplified exon 18 with Sty 1 confirmed the presence of this mutation in the heterozygous state in the original subject. None of the Welsh diabetic or control subjects had the Glu1068 mutation. The discovery of a very common silent polymorphism at codon 130 of GLUT 4 allowed examination of the association of this locus with Type 2 diabetes using allele-specific oligonucleotide hybridisation in a subset of the Welsh subjects. The genotypic frequencies (homozygous wild-type and heterzygous polymorphic (poly) sequences) were not significantly different between diabetic and control subjects (Type 2 diabetic subjects: wild-type/wild-type 40%, wild-type/poly 46%, poly/poly 14%; Control subjects: wild-type/wild-type 37%0, wild-type/poly 45 %, poly/poly 18 %;p 〉 0.05). In conclusion, in a British Caucasian population the examined insulin receptor tyrosine kinase domain mutations are uncommon. Also the GLUT 4 locus does not appear to be strongly associated with Type 2 diabetes.

    Notes: Abstract We report on nine patients with craniofrontonasal dysplasia (CFND). Seven classical cases had facial features suggestive of frontonasal dysplasia and coronal craniosynostosis. Extracranial abnormalities such as brittle nails with prominent longitudinal grooves or syndactyly of fingers and toes were observed in individual patients. In two families the father of classical cases showed a milder pattern of abnormalities, consistent with the diagnosis. We present a 2- to 13-year follow-up on our patients. Hypotonia and laxity of joints are common and may necessitate supportive measures. Mild developmental delay was noted in three out of six classical cases studied in detail. Unlike almost all other X-linked disorders, clinical expression in CFND is generally much more severe in females than in males. In contrast to previous reports of this condition, one of our severely affected cases is a male.

    Genetic and immunologic analysis of a family containing five patients with common-variable immune deficiency or selective IgA deficiency (1992)

    Notes: Abstract A family with 13 members included 2 subjects with selective IgA deficiency (IgA-D) and 3 subjects with common-variable immune deficiency (CVID), diseases which usually occur sporadically. Reciprocal combinations of B and T cellsin vitro between one normal and two immune-deficient family members and normal subjects revealed that defective Ig synthesis was determined by the B cells, while the patient T cells functioned normally. Normal T helper and suppressor function was demonstrated even in one patient with CVID who developed a T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder associated with elevated IgM; this patient's B cells made only IgMin vitro. Immune deficiencies were inherited in this family in a pattern consistent with an autosomal dominant trait with incomplete penetrance. All the immune-deficient patients in this family possessed at least one copy of an MHC haplotype previously shown to be abnormally frequent in IgA-D and CVID: HLA-DQB1*0201, HLA-DR3, C4B-Sf, C4A-deleted, G11-15, Bf-0.4, C2-a, HSP70-7.5, TNFα-5, HLA-B8, and HLA-A1. The patient who developed the lymphoproliferative disorder was homozygous for this haplotype. Four immunologically normal members, one of whom was 80 years old, also possessed this MHC haplotype, indicating that its presence is not sufficient for disease expression. A small segment of another MHC haplotype associated with Ig deficiency in the population also occurred in this family, but it was not associated with immune deficiency. The presence of neutral amino acids at position 57 of DQβ, previously correlated with IgA-D, was associated with disease in this family approximately to the same degree reported previously in unrelated patients. Thus the expression of immunodeficiency in individuals bearing a disease-associated MHC haplotype appears to require either additional genes or an environmental trigger.

    Notes: Abstract Glucose transporter genes have been proposed as candidate genes for type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. We chose to study the adult skeletal muscle glucose transporter gene (GLUT 4) andGLUT 1 in consideration of previous conflicting results obtained by different authors. We studied 68 patients with type 2 diabetes, and 66 non-diabetic controls matched for age, sex, and body mass index (BMI). Women and men were considered separately, according to BMI (≤24.0 and 〉24.0 for women; ≤25.0 and 〉25.0 for men). Allele and genotype frequencies were not significantly different in controls and in type 2 diabetic patients. ForGLUT 1 allele 1 and genotype x1x1 were more frequent, although not significantly (P=0.064 at χ2,P=0.025 at Fisher exact test) in overweight/obese diabetic women than in overweight/obese non-diabetic women. These data do not support the hypothesis that these genes play a major role in genetic susceptibility to type 2 diabetes mellitus, but suggest a possible association, at least in women, of allele 1 ofGLUT 1 with obese type 2 diabetes mellitus.

    Notes: Abstract Studies of kidney cross-transplantation in the Milan hypertensive strain of rats (MHS) and in its control strain (MNS) have demonstrated that the kidney has a causal role in the development of hypertension in this animal model. The same result was obtained in two other strains of rats with genetic hypertension. Patients receiving a kidney from a donor with hypertensive parents require more antihypertensive therapy than recipients of a kidney from a donor with a normotensive family. When MHS rats and a subset of patients with primary hypertension were compared with their appropriate controls, similar changes in kidney function and Na−K−Cl cotransport were observed. Offspring of hypertensive parents exhibit altered kidney function compared with their controls. Na−K−Cl co-transport in MHS rats is genetically determined and genetically associated with hypertension. In MHS rats the increase in Na−K−Cl co-transport seems to be linked to a cytoskeletal protein, adducin. In conclusion, a consistent sequence of events from a protein abnormality to cell and renal dysfunction may be proposed as being responsible for hypertension.

    Notes: Summary Accessions of Triticum tauschii (Coss.) Schmal. (D genome donor to hexaploid wheat) vary in salt tolerance and in the rate that Na+ accumulates in leaves. The aim of this study was to determine whether these differences in salt tolerance and leaf Na+ concentration would be expressed in hexaploid wheat. Synthetic hexaploids were produced from five T. tauschii accessions varying in salt tolerance and two salt-sensitive T. turgidum cultivars. The degree of salt tolerance of the hexaploids was evaluated as the grain yield per plant in 150 mol m-3 NaCl relative to grain yield in 1 mol m-3 NaCl (control). Sodium concentration in leaf 5 was measured after the leaf was fully expanded. The salt tolerance of the genotypes correlated negatively with the concentration of Na+ in leaf 5. The salt tolerance of the synthetic hexaploids was greater than the tetraploid parents primarily due to the maintenance of kernel weight under saline conditions. Synthetic hexaploids varied in salt tolerance with the source of their D genome which demonstrates that genes for salt tolerance from the diploid are expressed at the hexaploid level.

    Notes: Abstract We seek to understand the relative contribution of allelic variations of a particular gene to the determination of an individual's risk of atherosclerosis or hypertension. Work in progress is focusing on the identification and characterization of mutations in candidate genes that are known to be involved in determining the phenotypic expression of intermediate biochemical and physiological traits that are in the pathway of causation between genetic variation and variation in risk of disease. The statistical strategy described in this paper is designed to aid geneticists and molecular biologists in their search to find the DNA sequences responsible for the genetic component of variation in these traits. With this information we will have a more complete understanding of the nature of the organization of the genetic variation responsible for quantitative variation in risk of disease. It will then be possible to fully evaluate the utility of measured genetic information in predicting the risk of common diseases having a complex multifactorial etiology, such as atherosclerosis and hypertension.

    Notes: Blood group B antigenic trisaccharide-β-aminopropyl glycoside (B-TSAP) covalently attached to poly-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)acrylamide-coated porous glass interacts with anti-B monoclonal antibodies faster than the ligand coupled to CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B and Affi-Gel 10. Rates of hydrophobic adsorption of antibodies on the butyl derivatives of the same supports were measured to evaluate the diffusion input to overall kinetics. The lowest average affinity adsorption time [t1(aff) = 250 s] observed for polymer-coated glass probably arises because of the flexibility of the extended segments of chemisorbed N-substituted polyacrylamide acting as effective spacer arms.

    Notes: Antibodies against gangliosides isolated from small tumour and nervous tissue specimens can be reliably detected in serum samples by the ganglioside electrotransfer technique without the need for previous purification steps. After separation by high performance thin layer chromatography gangliosides are transferred from silica gel plates to hydrophobic polyvinylidene difluoride membranes. These membranes are highly suitable for immuno-staining. The use of a 15-slit device allows simulataneous testing of up to 15 serum samples. Samples of serum from 39 patients with clear-cell carcinoma of the kidney, mammary carcinoma, ovarian carcinoma and neurological disorder together with samples from healthy controls were tested for anti-ganglioside antibodies from various tissues.

    Notes: This paper describes a high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for determining 1,5-anhydroglucitol in plasma, in which anion exchange chromatography and pulsed amperometric detection are used. Plasma samples deproteinized with trichloroacetic acid are passed through a three-layer column packed with (1) strongly basic anion (BO3-3 form, the upper layer), (2) strongly basic anion (OH- form, the middle layer) and (3) strongly acidic cation (H+ form, the lower layer) exchange resins. 1,5-Anhydroglucitol is efficiently recovered in the flow-through fraction and interfering substances are completely removed by the column treatment. The analytical response of the method is linear with concentration to 40 mg/L, and it is possible to detect as little as 0.1 mg 1,5-anhydroglucitol per litre of plasma. Analytical recovery is between 96 and 103%, and there is good agreement between the results measured by our method and by a gas/liquid chromatographic method (r = 0.998). The method has been successfully used for the determination of very low 1,5-anhydroglucitol concentrations (〈 1 mg/L) in the plasma of diabetic patients.

    Notes: The peroxyoxalate chemiluminescence(CL) detection method for the evaluation of the CL intensity of malondialdehyde(MDA) condensates with seven 2-thiobarbituric acid derivatives is described. The method consists of a flow injection technique together with a CL detection system using bis(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl) oxalate(TCPO) and hydrogen peroxide as chemiluminogenic reagents. Linear correlations between CL intensity and concentration are obtained for pmol levels of condensates. Among the condensates, 1,3-diethyl-2-thiobarbituric acid(DETBA)-MDA shows the largest CL intensity. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)/CL detection of DETBA-MDA and 1,3-diphenyl-2-thiobarbituric acid(DPTBA)-MDA using a mixture of TCPO and hydrogen peroxide in acetonitrile as a postcolumn reagent solution is also described. The detection limits for DETBA-MDA and DPTBA-MDA are 20 and 200 fmol, respectively, per 20 μL injection at a signal-to-noise ratio of 2. This HPLC/CL detection system was applied to the defermination of MDA in rat brains by using DETBA as a fluorescent derivatizing reagent.

    Notes: On the basis of the heparin-like effect of phosphotungstate (PTA), we have shown that it is useful for the purification of hepatitis-B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) using heparin-Sepharose affinity chromatography. HBsAg was eluted with 0.2-0.6 M NaCl. HBsAg was also eluted with PTA at approximately 1 mM, and the HBsAg fraction thus obtained contained fewer impurities than the corresponding fraction eluted with NaCl. Moreover, PTA yielded HBsAg and hepatitis-B virus e-antigen simultaneously. PTA may specifically reduce the affinity of HBsAg for heparin as well as simply competing with heparin for an anion-binding site of HBsAg. Residual PTA in the eluate was easily decomposed by alkalization, which was useful for subsequent studies.

    Notes: The use of capillary electrophoresis for simultaneous separation and detection of the two bipyridylium herbicides, paraquat and diquat, was investigated. Both herbicides were extracted from fortified sera with disposable ODS-silica cartridges. Separation was carried out using a capillary tube (50 μm i.d., 750 mm) of fused silica containing 10 mM glycine-HCl buffer (pH 3.0), 40 mM NaCl and 20% methanol as the carrier. Paraquat and diquat were completely separated in 10 min at an applied potential of 20 kV. On-column UV monitoring allowed detection of both herbicides simultaneously. The assay sensitivity was 0.05 μg/mL (signal-to-noise ratio, 2:1), which probably increases with increase in the sample volume of serum. Analytical recovery of both herbicides added to serum was about 97% at concentrations of 0.5-2.0 μg/mL.

    Notes: A highly sensitive and simple reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the quantitative determination of free fatty acids in human serum is presented. The method is based on the direct derivatization of serum fatty acids with 6,7-dimethoxy-1-methyl-2(1H)-quinoxalinone-3-propionylcarboxylic acid hydrazide. The derivatization reaction proceeds in aqueous solution in the presence of pyridine and 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide at 37°C. The resulting derivatives are separated within 75 min on a reversed phase column (YMC Pack C8) with a gradient elution of aqueous acetonitrile and detected fluorimetrically. The detection limits are 2.5-5 fmol in a 10 μL injection volume. The sensitivity permits precise determination of free fatty acids in 5 μL serum. The method is simple and is without the conventional liquid-liquid extraction steps of serum fatty acids.

    Notes: A highly sensitive method for the determination of N-acetylneuraminic acid in human serum and urine is investigated. This method employs high performance liquid chromatography with chemiluminescence detection. N-Acetylneuraminic acid, released by hydrochloric acid hydrolysis of serum and urine, and N-glycolylneuraminic acid (internal standard) are converted into chemiluminescent derivatives with 4,5-diaminophthalhydrazide dihydrochloride, a chemiluminescence derivatization reagent for α-keto acids. The derivatives are separated within 35 min on a reversed phase column, TSKgel ODS-120T, with isocratic elution, followed by chemiluminescence detection; the chemiluminescence is produced by the reaction of the derivatives with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of potassium hexacyanoferrate(III) in alkaline solution. The detection limit for N-acetylneuraminic acid is 9 fmol (signal-to-noise ratio = 3). This sensitivity permits precise determination of N-acetylneuraminic acid in 10 nL of serum or 50 nL of urine. The method is applied to the determination of the N-acetylneuraminic acid in human sera from normal subjects and cancer patients and in normal urine.

    Notes: The content and dissolution rate of theophylline, diprophylline and proxyphylline from a sustained release formulation were determined by UV in situ densitometry. After separation the chromatographic zones corresponding to the spots of theophylline, diprophylline and proxyphylline on the high performance thin layer chromatographic plates were scanned in reflectance/absorbance mode at 275 nm. Quantification was performed with a second degree polynomial function over the range 40-200 ng for theophylline and 60-300 ng for diprophylline and proxyphylline. Percentages of dissolved theophylline, diprophylline and proxyphylline were monitored over 1, 3 and 6 h. The method was found to be simple, accurate, reliable, time-saving (up to 18 samples can be determined simultaneously) and low-cost.

    Notes: An improved method for the preparation of perbenzoylated ganglioside-derived sialic acids is described. After mild acid hydrolysis, isolation of sialic acids can be achieved by Folch partition (Method A) or by anion exchange chromatography (Method B). Perbenzoylated sialic acids were freed from benzoylation reagents by a second Folch partition. Total recoveries of both methods were found to be ≥90%, calculated from metabolically labelled gangliosides. Derivatized N-acetylneuraminic and N-glycolylneuraminic acids were separated and quantified by isocratic high performance liquid chromatography using a RP18 column as the stationary phase and methanol: water (8:2) as the mobile phase. Both sialic acids were completely separated and eluted as single peaks within 15 min, monitored by UV detection. As little as 20 ng of neuraminic acid could be detected, the detector being linear up to 5 μg tested.

    Notes: A procedure for the solubilization and purification of cytochrome-P450 (cyt-P450) from human liver microsomes is described. Successive treatment of microsomes with protease XXVII and 3-(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammoniopropanesulphonic acid gave a solubilized cyt-P450 in more than 80% yield and with a three-fold increae in specific activity. With this treatment it was possible to eliminate 80% of cytochrome-b5 and 75% of NADPH cyt-P450 reductase. The solubilized cyt-P450 was filtered on a Sephacryl-200 column and then subjected to high performance liquid chromatography with a Mono-P column (chromatofocussing). The recovery of separated cyt-P450 was about 50% with a specific activity of 11.5 nmol cyt-P450/mg protein. Also with this technique it was possible to determinate the isoelectric points of cyt-P450. These results allowed us to confirm the usefulness of our method, for the study the cyt-P450 from surgical biopsies.

    Notes: The retention behaviour of conjugated bile acids has been studied in a reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) system by using the mixture of methanol and aqueous phosphate buffer as the mobile phase. The retentions of the conjugates in RP-HPLC have been found to be mainly controlled by the glycine and taurine groups. The selectivity between five different glycine and taurine conjugated bile acids is a constant in RP-HPLC. This selectivity has been used for peak identification in the practical separation of conjugated bile acids.

    Notes: A combined high performance liquid chromatography/radioimmunoassay procedure is described for the simultaneous determination of dexamethasone (DEX) and its prodrug dexamethasone-21-sulphobenzoate sodium (DSS) in plasma. After precipitation of the plasma proteins by acetonitrile, the protein-free supernatant was injected onto a C18 reversed phase liquid chromatographic system and DSS- and DEX-containing fractions were collected. Hydrolysis of DSS by 0.01 N NaOH, followed by fractions extraction of both hydrolysed DSS and DEX fractions with ethyl acetate allowed the use of a dexamethasone-specific radioimmunoassay for the selective determination of both compounds. The method is accurate and reproducible (intraday variability for DSS and DEX〈6%, interday variability for DEX 14%), allowing quantification of DEX and DSS as low as 0.3 ng/mL and 0.7 ng/mL, respectively.

    Notes: Vaginal organic acids have previously been detected by gas-liquid chromatography, but we have applied an ion exclusion high performance liquid chromatographic procedure to the analysis of vaginal discharge samples. This procedure has the advantage of not requiring derivitization of non-volatile acids and provides the convenience of a technique which does not require the use of flammable gasses, while allowing the identification of at least 18 different acids from the same chromatographic analysis. Vaginal discharge from women with symptoms of bacterial vaginosis was collected on weighed swabs and analysed for the presence of organic acids. The results were compared to the organic acid content of samples obtained from the same cohort of women after treatment with metronidazole. In addition, samples were obtained from asymptomatic women and these samples were analysed in the same manner. The number of organic acids present in samples from women with bacterial vaginosis was greater than the number found after treatment or among asymptomatic women. Succinic acid appeared to be inversely related to lactate concentration and succinate:lactate ratios were greater among women with bacterial vaginosis before treatment than after treatment. Liquid chromatography has proven useful as a means of evaluating the metabolic end-products of vaginal microorganisms in situ.

    Notes: CGS 18102A is a novel hexahydrobenzopyranopyridine that has a mixed pharmacological profile of 5-HT-1A agonist and 5-HT-2 antagonist properties. Based upon these mechanisms, the compound is predicted to have anxiolytic efficacy with possible efficacy in depression. Preclinical studies in the rat have shown the drug to be well absorbed and extensively metabolized. Because of the anticipated low plasma levels in humans a gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analytical method has been developed and validated to determine plasma concentrations of CGS 18102A in early clinical studies. The method utilizes CGS 18416A as the internal standard. Samples (1 mL) were extracted with pentane:ethyl acetate (75:25, v:v). Extracts were then concentrated and analysed directly by GC/MS. Separation was accomplished on a methylsilicone capillary column (30 m × 0.32 mm i.d.). GC/MS was carried out under positive ion ammonia CI conditions, with selected ion monitoring of the [M + H]+ ions (m/z = 262 and 248) for CGS 18102A and CGS 18416A, respectively. The method was successively applied to the analysis of clinical samples from an ascending multidose safety and tolerability study conducted in six normal healthy male volunteers.

    Notes: A selective and sensitive method for the determination of low molecular weight aliphatic primary amines in urine is described. These amines were converted into their benzenesulphonyl derivatives by a modified Hinsberg procedure, and measured by gas chromatography with flame photometric detection (FPD-GC) using a DB-1 capillary column. The derivatives were very stable and provided excellent FPD responses. By FPD-GC, linear calibration curves were obtained in the range 10-200 ng of methylamine, ethylamine, n-propylamine, isobutylamine and n-butylamine using tert-butylamine as an internal standard, and the detection limits of these amines were ca. 6-25 pg as the injection amount. Benzenesulphonamide derived from ammonia was converted into its N-dimethylaminomethylene derivative which has a longer retention time, and separated from benzenesulphonyl derivatives of low molecular weight primary amines on the chromatogram. The recoveries of aliphatic primary amines added to urine samples were 91-107% and the relative standard deviations were 0.2-4.5%. Analytical results of aliphatic primary amine contents in urine samples of normal subjects are presented.

    Notes: Several polymer-bound o-nitrobenzophenone reagents containing different detector-sensitive tags have been combined in the same reactor for the on-line derivatization of amine samples. The formation of multiple derivatives allows numerous opportunities for quantitation from the same injection, and also allows improved identification from the retention times of the multiple derivatives. Changing the reaction conditions changes the ratio of the products formed, so that changes in the ratio of peak heights and areas can also be used for analyte identification. In this work, propylamine was derivatized in acetonitrile on-line, precolumn. Changing the reaction conditions, of reaction time, temperature, solvent, presence of catalyst and the components of the reactor, changed the ratio of the derivatives formed. These changes in product formation with changing reaction conditions were applied to the identification and quantitation of amphetamine and methamphetamine in urine. The drugs were identified by the retention times of their derivatives, the ratio of te peak areas of the derivatives and the change in the ratios after changing reaction conditions. Each derivative was also used for quantitation of levels of spiked concentrations of amphetamine and methamphetamine, with relative errors less than 8%.

    Notes: A high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the simultaneous assay of R(-)- and S(+)-albuterol in human serum. The assay involves solid phase extraction as a sample clean-up step and derivatization of racemic albuterol to its diastereomeric thioureas with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-D-glucopyranosyl isothiocyanate. Chromatographic separation was accomplished under isocratic conditions using an octadecylsilane column and a mobile phase consisting of 29:71 acetonitrile:distilled water containing 0.1% triethylamine, pH 4.0 (adjusted with concentrated phosphoric acid) at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. The diastereomers were detected using a fluorescence detector set at 223 nm excitation and no emission filter. Racemic bamethane was used as internal standard. Drug to internal standard peak-height ratios were linear over a 2-20 ng/mL range for each enantiomer. The limit of detection of each analyte was 1.0 ng/mL (S/N = 3).

    Notes: A fully automated assay for the analysis of ranitidine in serum and plasma, with and without an internal standard, was validated. It utilizes robotic solid phase extraction with on-line high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) analysis. The ruggedness of the assay was demonstrated over a three-year period. A Zymark Py Technology II® robotic system was used for serial processing from initial aspiration of samples from original collection containers, to final direct injection onto the on-line HPLC system. Automated serial processing with on-line analysis provided uniform sample history and increased productivity by freeing the chemist to analyse data and perform other tasks. The solid phase extraction efficiency was 94% throughout the assay range of 10-250 ng/mL. The coefficients of variation for within- and between-day quality control samples ranged from 1 to 6% and 1 to 5%, respectively. Mean accuracy for between-day standards and quality control results ranged from 97 to 102% of the respective theoretical concentrations.

    Notes: Different types and degrees of “spontaneous” and artificially induced cyclopic malformation in fishes are defined. Symmetrical cyclopia ranges from approximation of the eyes, to partial merger of the eyes in the midline, to complete cyclopia with a single median eye. It is always associated with dorsal displacement of the rostral-nasal apparatus to the top of the head. Skeletal reorganization associated with symmetrical cyclopia is described for the first time, using hatchery material of Salmo gairdneri and S. trutta. Development of the nasal capsule is essentially normal, except for position; the trabeculae cranii remain in the normal position but show modified shape corresponding to the degree of cyclopia. The jaw apparatus is modified through anterior foreshortening, especially the upper jaws. The branchial apparatus is unaffected. The condition demonstrates that later morphogenesis of the nasal capsule and trabeculae cranii are independent of each other. Cyclopia appears to result from alteration of relative position and timing in developmental events in the head, especially the prosencephalon.

    Notes: The interrenal (adrenal) of Ichthyophis beddomei lies on the ventral side of the kidney, distributed in four zones. It is separated from the renal tissue by a thin layer of connective tissue and contains both adrenocortical and chromaffin cells. Adrenocortical tissue constitutes a major portion of the interrenal islets; the chromaffin tissue consists of a few cells located at the peripheries of the interrenal islets. Histochemical studies demonstrate the presence of Δ53β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, 17 β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, and sudanophilic lipids in the adrenocortical tissue, suggesting its steroidogenic potential. Annual histometric and histochemical studies show two peaks of interrenal activity: (1) during the breeding phase of the reproductive cycle (January and February) and (2) during the season of heavy monsoon rains (June and July) in the postbreeding phase.

    Functional osteology of the avian wrist and the evolution of flapping flight (1992)

    Notes: The avian wrist is extraordinarily adapted for flight. Its intricate osteology is constructed to perform four very different, but extremely important, flight-related functions. (1) Throughout the downstroke, the cuneiform transmits force from the carpometacarpus to the ulna and prevents the manus from hyperpronating. (2) While gliding or maneuvering, the scapholunar interlocks with the carpometacarpus and prevents the manus from supinating. By employing both carpal bones simultaneously birds can lock the manus into place during flight. (3) Throughout the downstroke-upstroke transition, the articular ridge on the distal extremity of the ulna, in conjuction with the cuneiform, guides the manus from the plane of the wing toward the body. (4) During take-off or landing, the upstroke of some heavy birds exhibits a pronounced flick of the manus. The backward component of this flick is produced by reversing the wrist mechanism that enables the manus to rotate toward the body during the early upstroke. The upward component of the flick is generated by mechanical interplay between the ventral ramus of the cuneiform, the ventral ridge of the carpometacarpus, and the ulnocarpo-metacarpal ligament.Without the highly specialized osteology of the wrist it is doubtful that birds would be able to carry out successfully the wing motions associated with flapping flight. Yet in Archaeopteryx, the wrist displays a very different morphology that lacks all the key features found in the modern avian wrist. Therefore, Archaeopteryx was probably incapable of executing the kinematics of modern avian powered flight.

    Notes: Analyses of the histology, histochemistry, and ultrastructre of the Harderian gland of Coluber viridiflavus prove the gland to be compound acinar and to produce a seromucous secretion. Acinar cells (type I) contain secretory granules that are composite, consisting ultrastructurally of three distinct parts that are sharply separated. They are similar to the “special secretory granules” described in the cells of the Harderian gland of the lizard Podarcis s. sicula. Some acini of the most anterior and posterior parts of the gland are mucous. Acinar cells (type II) of this type contain secretory granules that are Alcian blue/PAS positve. At the ultrastructural level, they appear homogeneous and of low density, characteristic of mucous secretions. These mucus-secreting anterior and posterior parts of the Harderian gland may by considered as regions of intial differentiation of the anterior and posterior lacrimal galnds.

    Development of the subdigital adhesive pads of Ptyodactylus guttatus (Reptilia: Gekkonidae) (1992)

    Notes: Subdigital adhesive pads play an important role in the locomotion of many species of gekkonid lizards. These pads consist of integrated components derived from the epidermis, dermis, vascular system, subcuticular tendons, and phalanges. These components become intimately associated with each other during the developmental differentiation of the digits and the sequence of this integration is outlined herein in Ptyodactylus guttatus. The pads initially appear as paired swellings at the distal tips of the digits. Subsequently, a fan-like array of naked scansors develops on the ventral surface of each digit, at about the same time that scales differentiate over the surface of the foot as a whole. At the time of appearance of the naked scansors, the vascular sinus system of the pad also differentiates, along with subcuticular connective tissue specializations. At this stage the digits, along with the rest of the body, are clad in an embryonic periderm. Only after hatching and as the periderm is shed, do the epidermal setae and spines appear. The developmental sequence described here is consistent with predictions previously advanced about the evolutionary origin and elaboration of subdigital pads in gekkonid lizards. The paucity of available staged embryonic material leaves many questions unresolved.

    Notes: Histology, histochemistry, and biochemistry of the oviduct change seasonally in relationship to the annual ovarian cycle of Calotes versicolor. Histological changes show distinct changes in various components of the infundibulum, uterus and vagina of the oviduct. The active phase in the oviduct cycle of C. versicolor is relatively long, extending from April to October. Histochemical results of the oviduct during the breeding season show PAS-positive glycosaminoglycans in the mucosal epithelium as well as the presence of hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases, esterase, and intense acid phosphatase activity in the uterine glands. Biochemically alkaline and acid phosphatase show marked cyclic changes in the infundibulum and uterus respectively during the oviduct cycle. Greater activity was observed during the breeding season. β-Glucuronidase, on the other hand, shows an inverse relationship with the oviduct cycle being most active during the regressive phase and least at the time of reproductive phase.

    Patterns of peripheral innervation of the tongue and hyobranchial apparatus in caecilians (Amphibia: Gymnophiona) (1992)

    Notes: The innervation of the musculature of the tongue and the hyobranchial apparatus of caecilians has long been assumed to be simple and to exhibit little interspecific variation. A study of 14 genera representing all six families of caecilians demonstrates that general patterns of innervations by the trigeminal, facial, glossopharyngeal, and vagus nerves are similar across taxa but that the composition of the “hypoglossal” nerve is highly variable. Probably in all caecilians, spinal nerves 1 and 2 contribute to the hypoglossal. In addition, in certain taxa, an “occipital,” the vagus, and/or spinal 3 appear to contribute fibers to the composition of the hypoglossal nerve. These patterns, the lengths of fusion of the contributing elements, and the branching patterns of the hypoglossal are assessed according to the currently accepted hypothesis of phylogenetic relationships of caecilians, and of amphibians. An hypothesis is proposed that limblessness and a simple tongue, with concomitant reduced complexity of innervation of muscles associated with limbs and the tongue, has released a constraint on pattern of innervation. As a consequence, a greater diversity and, in several taxa, greater complexity of neuroanatomical associations of nerve roots to form the hypoglossal are expressed.

    Notes: The nereid polychaete, Platynereis dumerilii, possess two pairs of post-trochophoral eyes with one vitreous body each. The development of these eyes has first been observed in 2-day-old larvae. Whether the eye anlagen arise from stem cells or from undifferentiated ectodermal tissue was not determined. At first, the anlagen of the anterior and the posterior eyes adjoin each other. They separate in late 3-day-old larvae. The first separated eye complexes consist each of two supporting and two sensory cells. The supporting cells synthesize two different kinds of granules, the pigment granules of the pigment cup and the prospective tubules of the vitreous body. These tubules accumulate in the distal process of the supporting cell. The vitreous body is formed by compartments of the supporting cells filled with the osmiophilic vitreous body tubules. The short, bulbar photosensory processes bear microvilli that emerge into the ocular cavity. At the apex of each sensory cell process, a single cilium (or occasionally two) arises. The sensory cells contain a different kind of pigment granule within their necks at the level of the pigment cup. The rate of eye development and differentiation varies. New supporting cells are added to the rim of the eye cup. They contribute to the periphery of the vitreous body like onion skins, and sensory cells move between supporting cells. The older the individual compartments of the vitreous body are, the more densely packed is their content of vitreous body tubules. Elongation of the sensory and supporting cell processes of the older cells increases the volume of the eye. The eyespots of the trochophore are briefly described as of the two-celled rhabdomeric type with a single basal body with ciliary rootlet.

    Notes: Movements of the neck, jaws, and hyolingual apparatus during inertial feeding in Caiman crocodilus were studied by cineradiography. Analysis reveals two kinds of cycles: inertial bites (reposition, kill/crush, and transport) and swallowing cycles. They differ in their gape profile and in displacement of the neck, cranium, and hyolingual apparatus.Inertial bites are initiated by an elevation of the neck and cranium; the head is then retracted backward, the prey simultaneously being lifted by the hyolingual apparatus. Next the lower jaw is depressed, and the prey is rapidly pushed further upward by the hyolingual apparatus. Thereafter fast mouth-closure occurs with the neck and cranium being abruptly depressed, the lower jaw elevated, and the hyolingual apparatus rapidly retracted ventrally. Depression of the neck and cranium thrusts the head forward and impacts the backward moving prey more posteriorly in the oral cavity.Swallowing cycles initially involve movement of the hyoid in front of the prey followed by rapid posteroventrad retraction of the hyoid, forcing the prey into the esophagus during opening and closing of the mouth. After mouth-closure, the hyoid apparatus is again protracted.Jaws, neck, tongue, and hyoid apparatus play an active role during intertial feeding sequences. At the beginning of a feeding sequence, the hyolingual apparatus mainly moves dorsoventrally, whereas toward the end of a sequence anteroposterior displacements of the hyoid are prominent. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The morphology of the female reproductive tract and corpus luteum is examined in Sphenomorphus fragilis, a lizard from the lowland regions of New Guinea exhibiting incipient viviparity. Females oviposit eggs that hatch either immediately or within a few hours. Corpora lutea form from ovulated follicles and decrease in diameter as embryonic development progresses. The oviduct from vitellogenic females is sparsely populated with well developed uterine glands containing secretory granules. The eggs are covered with a relatively thin shell (10 μm thick) composed of an inner boundary layer and proteinacous fibers. The secreted shell is complete by early neurulation. Shell morphology does not change throughout the remainder of the in utero incubation period. A well vascularized uterus and chorioallantoic membrane provide simple placentation. These findings suggest that the reduction in shell thickness associated with the evolution of a placenta is due to a decrease in the number of shell glands in the uterus and is not a delay or inhibition of the shelling process per se. This hypothesis further suggests that the selective forces favoring shell gland loss act on the vitellogenic female during gland recruitment which occurs prior to ovulation and not on the pregnant female. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Study of the esophageal microscopic morphology of adult Rana perezi by light and electron microscopy discloses some large folds throughout the esophagus that are in themselves ringed. Glandular ostia open in the furrows of the luminal surface. The esophageal wall is made up of a connective adventitia rich in melanocytes, a muscular tunica, a connective and glandular subepithelial layer, and a pseudostratified ciliated epithelium. This epithelium basically consists of ciliated, goblet, basal, microvillous-apex, and migratory cells. Two types of goblet cells are distinguished with regard to the granular ultrastructure. The microvillous-apex cell has not been found in other amphibians. It shows a very differentiated morphology with a high number of mitochondria. The basal cells give the epithelium a pseudostratified morphology, and they have a proliferative function. Glands are branched and drain through an excretory duct that has a monolayered mucosecreting epithelium. The glandular units are formed by two principal types of cells: mucosecretory and serous. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The spermathecae of Eurycea cirrigera are exocrine glands in the cloaca that secrete a substance that bathes sperm stored in the lumen after mating and prior to oviposition. Many sperm remain in the spermathecae after oviposition, and the spermathecal epithelium becomes spermiophagic. Pseudopodia enclose sperm into endocytic vacuoles. The vacuoles become associated with primary lysosomes in the cytoplasm. Following formation of secondary lysosomes and resulting condensation of the sperm fragments, residual bodies are exocytized into the surrounding connective tissue stroma. By the start of the next breeding cycle, most sperm remaining from the previous mating have been degraded, but some sperm remain in the lumen, and the viability of these sperm is unknown. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Basement membrane lectin binding sites are decreased in the esophageal endoderm during the arrival of presumptive muscle mesenchyme in the developing asteroid Pisaster ochraceus (1992)

    Notes: Basement membranes (BMs) of vertebrates and invertebrates have been shown to contain glycoproteins and proteoglycans, which include oligosaccharides and glycosaminoglycans. Lectin binding sites were characterized in the BM of gastrulating embryos of the starfish, Pisaster ochraceus. In early and mid-gastrulae, the fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-lectin conjugates of concanavalin A (Con A) and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) reveal the presence of mannose/glucose and glucosamine/sialic acid residues in the BM of all regions of the embryos. However, in the late gastrula embryo, an apparent reduction of these components is observed over the esophageal BM. Ultrastructural studies using the lectin-gold conjugates Con A, Limax flavus agglutinin (LFA), specific for sialic acid, and Dolichos biflorus agglutinin (DBA), specific for galactosamine, demonstrate that most mannose/glucose and galactosamine containing residues lie in the lamina densa, whereas most sialic acid residues are located over the lamina lucida. In addition, a statistical analysis of lectin binding in the late gastrula embryo reveals that the amount of labelling with both Con A and LFA is significantly reduced in the esophageal region, suggesting that mannose/glucose and sialic acid residuces are reduced in this region. These results confirm the observations of the FITC-lectin studies described above. They also confirm earlier studies that demonstrated a difference in BM morphology of the esophageal region (Crawford, '88). Mesenchyme cells, some of which arise from the forming coeloms (Crawford, '90), and which may represent a distinct population, colonize exclusively on this esophageal BM, where they later differentiate into muscle. Quantitative differences in BM glycoconjugates may act to direct the presumptive muscle cells to the region of the esophagus. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A large sample of embryological material of the North American paddlefish Polyodon spathula (Acipenseriformes: Polyodontidae) confirms that early development in Polyodon is very similar to that reported for the sister group of Polyodontidae, the sturgeons (Acipenseridae). Polyodon illustrates many basic aspects of acipenseriform (and actinopterygian) head development that have not been adequately described. In this paper, we provide an overview of external features of cranial development using scanning electron microscopy. The observations are correlated with staging schemes previously proposed for paddlefishes and other acipenseriforms. Events that occur after the start of neurulation (stage 19) to the start of feeding (stage 46) are emphasized. New information on the structure and folding of the mandibular and hyoid segments permits an understanding of the early development of the pharyngeal region. In addition, we offer new descriptions of the hatching gland, the olfactory organ, the sensory barbel, and the initiation of paddle outgrowth. We also comment on the mode of origin of the hypophysis, and refute the notion that it is derived from the lips of the anterior neuropore as suggested in older literature. This information sets the stage for future comparative and experimental studies of the embryology of basal actinopterygians. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Seminal receptacula in the female reproductive tract of Opisthopatus cinctipes purcell (onychophora, peripatopsidae) (1992)

    Notes: The presence of seminal receptacula in the female reproductive tract of Opisthopatus cinctipes (Purcell, 1900) has been disputed (Choonoo, '47; Ruhberg, '85; Herzberg et al., '80). However, they do occur and are described here from observations by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). No spermatozoa are associated with the surface of the ovary; in contrast the ovary of Peripatopsis capensis is covered with spermatozoa and numerous small rounded cells. The seminal receptacula of O. cinctipes are formed from a loop in the proximal region of the uterus and contain remnants of spermatozoa in their lumens. The epithelial cells lining the seminal receptacula contain numerous vesicles and residual bodies. It is suggested that these cells absorb those spermatozoa not required for fertilization, and that the seminal receptacula in the Peripatopsidae act as short-term storage sites for spermatozoa. By contrast, the seminal receptacula of the Peripatidae are considered to act as long-term storage sites for spermatozoa. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Scanning and transmission electron microscopy of the antennae of Culicoides impunctatus and Culicoides nubeculosus show that males and females share five sensillum types. Sensilla chaetica resemble mechanoreceptors, each innervated by a single neurone whose dendrite terminates distally in a tubular body: the arrangement of sensilla on male antennae suggests that females are located by sound. The antennae have both sharp- and blunt-tipped sensilla trichodea, sharp-tipped sensilla on only the distal third and blunttipped sensilla on all subsegments. These sensilla are typical of olfactory receptors, having multiporous walls and being innervated by a number of neurones with bifurcating dendrites ascending the hair shafts. Sensilla basiconica occur on the distal five subsegments of the female antenna and the distal three subsegments of the male antenna. Sensilla coeloconica always occur on subsegment one and sometimes on a number of other subsegments, depending on sex and species. Both basiconic and coeloconic sensilla have double walls and unbranched dendrites and may be either olfactory or thermo- and/or hygroreceptors. All antennae except those of male C. impunctatus antennae have sensilla ampullacea, apparently deep-seated olfactory or thermoreceptors. Small peg sensilla fitting the description of contact chemoreceptors occur only at the tip of the male antenna. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Retinoic acid enhances monoclonal antibody WE3 reactivity in the regenerate epithelium of the adult newt (1992)

    Notes: Monoclonal antibody (mAb) WE3 recognizes an antigen that is developmentally expressed in the wound epithelium during adult newt limb regeneration. Experiments were designed to determine whether retinoic acid (RA), dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and administered by intraperitoneal injection, would enhance the temporal appearance of the WE3 antigen. RA given on days 1 or 4 after amputation, when the WE3 antigen is not yet detectable, resulted in moderate reactivity to mAb 2 days after injection and strong reactivity throughout the wound epithelium 4 days after injection. DMSO alone had no enhancing effect. RA also caused limb skin epidermis to exhibit reactivity to mAb WE3, initially near the amputation level, but then also more proximally. By 4 and 6 days after RA injection, epidermis of the flank, eye lid, and unamputated hind limbs also became strongly reactive to mAb WE3. Outer layers of skin epidermis were shed, resulting in an epidermis only one or two cells thick. Epidermis of newts given DMSO alone remained non-reactive to mAb WE3. When RA was given on days 7 and 10 after amputation, when a low level of mAb WE3 reactivity is already present in the wound epithelium, a considerable enhancement of mAb WE3 reactivity occurred through the next few days. No such enhancement was seen with DMSO alone. RA also greatly increased mAb WE3 reactivity in the wound epithelium of denervated limbs, in which case the wound epithelial reactivity to mAb WE3 is normally low. Retinol palmitate also increased mAb WE3 reactivity. The results raise the possibility that the WE3 antigen is a component of most if not all retinoid target tissues in newts. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Skull mechanics in the pigeon, Columba livia, a three-dimensional kinematic model (1992)

    Notes: The mechanics of the skull of the pigeon are analyzed quantitatively, based on a three-dimensional kinematic computer model that considers the skull as a mechanism (Goodman, '60). The degrees of freedom at each cranial joint are defined and translated into geometric relations, using the method of Elshoud ('80). The model predicts the positions of cranial elements from three input variables: the positions of the upper and lower bills and the length of the M. protractor quadrati et pterygoidei. Simulations with the model suggest the presence of a locking mechanism for the lower bill, which prevents its depression. High speed films of feeding pigeons confirmed that locking can occur at different upper bill positions. The locking mechanism may permit feeding pigeons to use the elastic energy stored in the hinge of the upper bill during the grasp, producing simultaneous fast closing of the upper and lower bills. Simulation of jaw muscle activity suggests that these jaw muscles should not be divided into “openers” and “closers.” © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Neurons in whole mount preparations of the frontal ganglion (FG) of the cockroach, Periplaneta americana, were mapped with the aid of cobalt chloride staining and silver intensification techniques. Eighty-six neurons were counted in the FG after staining with reduced methylene blue. The cell size ranged between 20 to 35 μm in diameter. Of the somata located in the FG, 44 were found to contribute their fibers to the nervus recurrens, 26 to the right frontal commissure, 28 to the left frontal commissure, and 6 to the nervus connectivus. In addition, a few neurons presumably from the tritocerebral region also contribute their fibers in the formation of nervus connectivus. The present study has helped delineate the neuronal connections of the FG with the brain and neuroendocrine system (corpora cardiaca and corpora allata). This information will be useful in facilitating the positioning of microelectrodes in our future electrophysiological experiments. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Microcorrosion casts of the renal vascular system of tadpoles of the Clawed Frog, Xenopus laevis, were observed by scanning electron microscopy. Glomerular differentiation was studied qualitatively and quantitatively during developmental stages 56-66 (metamorphic climax). The general structure of the renal vascular system corresponds to the pattern commonly found in anurans; however, the arterial supply has conspicuous connecting vessels that supply groups of glomeruli. In the dorsal part of the kidney, qualitative differentiation of glomerular structures precedes quantitative growth. The ventral part of the kidney has larger, well-developed renal corpuscles of nearly adult appearance. Four developmental stages of glomerulogenesis are distinguished morphologically and their glomerular and vascular growth is analyzed. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Postembryonic skeletal development of the pipid frog Xenopus laevis is described from cleared-and-stained whole-mount specimens and sectioned material representing Nieuwkoop and Faber developmental Stages 46-65, plus postmetamorphic individuals up to 6 months old. An assessment of variation of skeletogenesis within a single population of larvae and comparison with earlier studies revealed that the timing, but not the sequence, of skeletal development in X. laevis is more variable than previously reported and poorly correlated with the development of external morphology. Examination of chondrocranial development indicates that the rostral cartilages of X. laevis are homologous with the suprarostral cartilages of non-pipoid anurans, and suggests that the peculiar chondrocranium of this taxon is derived from a more generalized pattern typical of non-pipoid frogs. Derived features of skeletal development not previously reported for X. laevis include (1) bipartite formation of the palatoquadrate; (2) precocious formation of the adult mandible; (3) origin of the angulosplenial from two centers of ossification; (4) complete erosion of the orbital cartilage during the later stages of metamorphosis; (5) development of the sphenethmoid as a membrane, rather than an endochondral bone; and (6) a pattern of timing of ossification that more closely coincides with that of the pelobatid frog Spea than that recorded for neobatrachian species. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Anatomy of synganglia, including their neurosecretory regions, in unfed, virgin female Ixodes scapularis say (Acari: Ixodidae) (1992)

    Notes: The central nervous system of Ixodes scapularis is fused into a single compact synganglion. The esophagus runs through the synganglion and divides it into supraesophageal and subesophageal parts. The supraesophageal portion contains a single protocerebrum with four pairs of glomeruli, paired optic lobes and cheliceral ganglia, and a single stomodeal bridge. The subesophageal portion contains a centrally located network of commissures and connectives, a pair of palpal ganglia, paired olfactory lobes of the first pedal ganglia, four pairs of pedal ganglia, and a single opisthosomal ganglion. A retrocerebral organ complex (ROC) in close vicinity of the digestive tract, as described in some other tick species, apparently is lacking. Perhaps the function of the ROC is performed by the paired, large, ganglion-like bodies that lie anterolaterad to the cheliceral ganglia.The rind, which is formed from the neuronal somata and glial cells, surrounds the central fibrous core or neuropile. Neurosecretory cells (NSC) are distinct among rind cells due to their large size and concentration of cytoplasmic neurosecretions. NSC are present throughout the synganglion, although the subesophageal portion contains larger groups of these cells. Histological serial sections, stained with Meola's (Trans Am Microsc Soc 89:66-71, '70) paraldehyde fuchsin (PAF) procedure revealed 24 PAF-stained, putative neurosecretory regions in the synganglion of virgin, unfed females. All of these regions appear to be connected and associated with the nearest ganglion and are correspondingly named. Eighteen PAF-positive regions occur in the synganglion. In addition, PAF-negative (green-stained) cells occupy 6 distinct regions in the synganglion of unfed, unmated females. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Female Thamnophis sirtalis were administered intraperitoneal implants of either estradiol 17β (E2), testosterone (T), 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT), or empty silastic capsules for 3 weeks. Plasma levels of E2 and T, measured by specific radioimmunoassay, were significantly elevated in E2 and T-implanted females when compared to controls. T-implanted females did not have elevated circulating E2 levels, suggesting that E2 in the plasma normally is not derived from peripheral conversion of T to E2. Implantation of DHT did not significantly change circulating levels of E2, T, or DHT. All three sex steroid - treated groups of animals had increased oviductal mass compared to controls, while hepatic mass of only E2-treated animals was significantly greater. None of the steroid treatments influenced ovarian mass. Oviductal epithelial cell height and area were greater in the three steroid-treated groups. Testosterone increased myometrial area while DHT drastically altered oviductal morphology. Hepatic cell area and number increased significantly in E2-treated females. However, a small increase in both hepatic cell area and number was noted in T- and DHT-treated females as well. These results suggest that androgen in both an aromatizable and non-aromatizable form can affect the oviduct of females but that the liver primarily responds to estrogenic steroids. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The labial palpus of the elephant louse Haematomyzus elephantis has six sensilla that represent three different types: trichoid, basiconic, and styloconic. Two rows of basiconic sensilla are situated on the dorsal and ventral surfaces of the rostrum, and each row consists of three sensilla. Male and female antennae have 15-17 trichoid sensilla situated on the scape, pedicel, and three antennal annuli. Both sexes have two sensilla basiconica on the dorsal surface of the pedicel near the junction of the scape and pedicel. Two coeloconic (tuft) sensilla are situated on the antennae of both sexes, one sensillum on each of the last two annuli. There are three plate organs, two on the last annulus and one on the penultimate annulus of the male and female antennae. Sexual dimorphism is exhibited in the male and female antennae, in that the male has about twice as many sensilla basiconica on the apex of the last annulus as does the female. The total number of sensilla basiconica on the apex of the male antennae is at least two times the number that is known to be present in any other species of lice. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Representative functional teeth from Cryptobranchus alleghaniensis (Cryptobranchidae), Amphiuma means (Amphiumidae), Dicamptodon ensatus (Dicamptodontidae), Necturus maculosus (Proteidae), and Dermophis sp. (Costa Rica) (Caeciliidae) were prepared for transmission electron microscope and electron microprobe analysis of the trace elements of the enamel layer. The enamel layer of these species is very thin and the arrangement of enamel crystals variable. In particular, the outer part of the enamel layer in which hydroxyapatite elements (Ca, P) and trace elements (e.g., F, Fe, Mg) are concentrated, is most heavily mineralized. The concentrations and alignment of crystals in the outer and inner parts of the enamel layer differ among these species.The presence of collagen fibers in the inner part of the enamel layer of Cryptobranchus and Dermophis indicates that it is enameloid rather than true enamel. The presence of trace elements may be related to the pattern of mineralization of enamel or enameloid, as suggested for tetra-odontiform fishes by Suga et al. (J. Dent. Res. 68:1115-1123, 1989). © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: A statistical and functional relationship between neural canal anatomy and locomotor mode is demonstrated in living marine mammals of the Order Carnivora. This relationship is interpreted to be the result of differential innervation and territory of musculature involved in generating the six locomotor patterns analyzed. This osteological reflection of a behavioral trait allows prediction of locomotor pattern in extinct genera of closely related taxa. The robust data allow such predictions even when a considerable number of presacral vertebrae are missing in the fossil specimens. In some cases, these predictions conflict with interpretations based solely on limb osteology. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Metabolite 2 was well separated from the urine components on a reversed phase column, Hypersil ODS 5 μm, using an acetonitrile: pH 3.5 phosphate buffer (40:60, v/v) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. UV detection was set up at 220 nm. After addition of a known amount of lysergamide as the internal standard, the compounds were extracted from alkalysed urine on a pre-packed glass column (Extrelut 1) with dichloromethane. With 0.5 mL urine, concentrations down to 0.56 μmol/L could be determined.

    Notes: This paper describes a method for the direct gas/liquid chromatographic (GC) analysis of 46 glycine-conjugated bile acids, which differ from one another in the number, position and configuration of the hydroxyl groups at positions C-2, C-3, C-4, C-6, C-7 and/or C-12. Free bile acids were converted quantitatively on a micro scale to ethyl ester-trimethylsilyl (Et-TMS) and methyl ester-dimethylethylsilyl (Me-DMES) ether derivatives of the corresponding glycine conjugates. The Et-TMS and Me-DMES ethers of the glycine conjugates were chromatographed on an aluminum-clad flexible fused-silica capillary column coated with a thin film (0.1 μm) of chemically bonded and cross-linked methylpolysiloxane. Relative retention time (RRT) and methylene unit (MU) values were determined for the 46 compounds and their GC behaviour was discussed. The derivatization procedure and the retention data would be useful for the direct GC identification of unknown glycine-conjugated bile acid mixtures extracted from biological samples.

    Notes: A method for the determination of the antiepileptic drug valproic acid and 14 of its metabolites in serum and urine by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry with selected ion monitoring of the trimethylsilylated derivatives has been developed. Sample preparation, including hydrolysis of VPA-conjugates and removal of urea in urine is carried out at pH 5.0 and is rapid and simple. The samples are extracted with ethyl acetate and the concentrated extracts are trimethylsilylated. Analysis with adequate separation of metabolites is achieved with a DB 1701 fused silica (Megabore) capillary column. The method exhibits high recovery and reproducibility and is sufficiently sensitive and selective for analysis of small sample volumes. Application of the method for screening patient serum and urine samples for unusual metabolite patterns, with possible predictive value for early detection of liver injury, is presented.

    Notes: A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method has been developed to permit the rapid comparison of acidic polysaccharides of diverse compositions and the sensitive determination of their constituents. It is based on two combined analyses of the polysaccharide hydrolysates - a separation of the released compounds by ion-moderated partition chromatography with UV detection at two wavelengths and a separation of the sugar dansylhydrazine derivatives by reversed phase chromatography. The former permits identification and quantitation of uronic and carboxylic acids, the latter permits more sensitive and specific determination of the neutral aldoses. Some bacterial exopolysaccharides have been used to demonstrate the validity of this HPLC procedure for the chemical characterization of uronic acid-containing polysaccharides. This method appears to be useful for studying capsular polysaccharides, which are involved in the evasion of phagocytosis by pathogenic bacteria.

    Notes: A highly sensitive and simple method for the determination of prostaglandins (PGs) by HPLC with fluorescence detection is described. PGs are converted to the corresponding fluorescence derivatives by the reaction with 4-(N,N-dimethylaminosulphonyl)-7-(1-piperazinyl)-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (DBD-PZ) in the presence of 2,2′-dipyridyl disulphide and triphenyl phosphine in acetonitrile. The reaction is completed at room temperature after 30 min. The DBD derivatives of nine PGs are separated within a single 45 min chromatographic run on a reversed phase ODS column with a linear gradient elution using water and acetonitrile. The detection limits (signal-to-noise ratio of 3) calculated from the standard mixture of PGs (6-keto-F1α, F1α, F2α, E1, E2, D2, limaprost, A1 and B1) are in the range 1.7-5.0 fmol. The applicability of the proposed procedure is evaluated to the detection of PGs added to rat plasma.

    Notes: A method for the extraction and quantification by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) of non-labelled benzodiazepines partitioned into biological membranes has been developed. The benzodiazepine (BZD) was partitioned in a synaptosomal membrane-buffer system. The membranous pellet was separated by centrifugation and from this pellet, previously submitted or not to a proteolytic treatment and resuspended in the same buffer, the BZD was extracted by the addition of the proper volume of ethyl acetate, i.e. that capable of extracting at least 99.5% of the total drug in the aqueous phase. Optimal conditions for maximum proteolysis were: incubation of membranes at a final concentration of 1 mg protein/mL in the presence of 0.08 mg of Protease type I per mL for 90 min. at 45°C. Although the efficiency of the proteolysis was demonstrated not only by kinetic but also by electrophoretic evidence, recovery of BZD in the organic solvent was not increased by the enzymatic treatment at a mass BZD/protein ratio in the range 4-4.6 10-5 μg BZD/mg protein. For the HPLC quantification a reversed phase ODS column was used with methanol: water (1:1) plus 3.5% acetic acid as the mobile phase at a constant pressure and 1 mL/min flow rate. The UV detector was calibrated at 265 nm. Calibration curves were constructed by plotting peak height or peak area vs. nmoles BZD and adjusted to straight lines by a regression analysis by the least squares method. The peak height was selected as the detection method. Intra- and inter-assay precision did not exceed 10% and the total recovery was 100%.

    Notes: A reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic method for the simultaneous determination of pseudouridine (PU) and creatinine (Cr) in urine is described. The mobile phase was 0.01 mol phosphate buffer (pH 6.1) containing 2.5 mmol octanesulphonic acid as the ion pairing agent. UV detection was set at 250 nm. Variation in pH value affected the retention time of PU and Cr significantly; Their separation from interfering peaks was also affected. The recoveries of PU and Cr were 89.93% and 90.35%, respectively. The standard deviation of the method for PU was 48.69 ± 0.063 (nmol/μmol Cr, mean ± SD, n = 5). The urine samples from 233 normal children of different ages and 119 patients with leukaemia were analysed by this method. The normal reference value was appraised by comparison with the percentage of immature cells in the bone marrow. The results showed that the sensitivity of the method was 94.12%, the specificity was 95.86%, the accuuracy was 95.50%, the positive predictive value was 82.05% and the negative predictive value was 98.78%. The method can be used to evaluate the state of the leukaemia, and to monitor the effect of treatment.

    Notes: Zn-metallothioneins (MT-1 and MT-2) were isolated and purified from Wistar rat liver induced by subcutaneous injection with cadmium chloride over a short time. Instead of Sephadex G-50 and DEAE Sephadex A-50, new chromatographic media produced by Pharmacia, Sephacryl S-200, S-100 and DEAE Sepharose Fast Flow were used in the purification of metallothioneins. The time required for purification with the new method was only 1/3 that required with the usual method and had the same purification effect and rate of recovery. The number of mercapto groups measured with modified Ellman's reagent and cysteine as standard is 20 in MT molecules. Zn and Cd concentrations in each fraction were measured by single sweep polarography rather than atomic absorption spectrophotometry. MT-1 and MT-2 contained 6 gram atoms of zinc, but no cadmium. Purified MT-1 and MT-2 were shown by high performance liquid chromatographic analysis to be highly homogeneous and had an amino acid composition similar to that of Cd-MT.

    Notes: Haemoglobin obtained from a male adult Ghanian with retinopathy, which was probably caused by haemoglobinopathy was analysed by capillary electrophoresis (CE) for clinical diagnosis. Two major peaks, which were in the ratio of nearly one, were detected. The elution times of these peaks (HbXI and HbXII) were faster than that of normal haemoglobin (HbA). The existence of two different abnormal types of haemoglobin was clear in the patient blood. The following sequence analysis revealed that the first peak (HbXI) was HbC and the second (HbXII) was HbS on the electropherogram, and that the patient was a heterozygote of HbS and HbC (HbSC disease). One of the diagnostic processes in a haemoglobin disease was shown by the combined use of CE, HPLC and a protein sequencer.

    Notes: An analytical method has been developed for the determination of a new antiepileptic drug, CGS 18416A, in human plasma. CGS 18416A is a new anticonvulsant representative of a novel class of water-soluble agents being developed for the treatment of epilepsy. Preclinical trials indicate sustained efficacy at relatively low oral doses, indicating a need for a sensitive assay. The method is based on capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry and utilizes stable isotope-labelled CGS 18416A as the internal standard. Samples (1 mL) are acidified, then washed with pentane/ethyl acetate, followed by liquid/liquid extraction at pH 11 with pentane/ethyl acetate. Extracts are then concentrated and analysed directly by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Separation is accomplished on a thick film methylsilicone capillary column. Mass spectrometry was carried out under positive ion ammonia Cl conditions with selected ion monitoring of the protonated molecular ions (m/z = 248 and 252) for CGS 18416A and the 13CD3-CGS 18416A, respectively. Specificity was demonstrated by the lack of interfering peaks at the retention time of CGS 18416A and the internal standard. Recovery and reproducibility assessments indicate good accuracy and precision over the validated concentration range of 0.2-51 ng/mL. The limit of quantification is 0.2 ng/mL and the method has sufficient sensitivity to support clinical trials. This is illustrated with an example of quantification in a normal volunteer following oral dosing.

    Notes: A sensitive determination method for a non-fluorescent anti-arrhythmic drug, mexiletine, in rat plasma is presented utilizing a HPLC peroxyoxalate chemiluminescence (PO-CL) detection system. After an internal standard (4-methylmexiletine, 4.35 pmol) and 0.1 N sodium hydroxide solution were added to 5 μL rat plasma, the solution was poured onto an Extrelut 1 column. Both mexiletine and the internal standard were eluted with diethy ether and then the eluate was evaporated to dryness. The residue was dissolved in 0.2 M borate buffer (pH 8.5) and mixed with dansyl chloride (75 nmol) in acetronitrile. After standing of 90 min at room temperature, 0.5 N HCI was added to the reaction mixture to stop the reaction and a 2/45 aliquot of the mixture was subjected to a HPLC PO-CL detection system using bis(4-nitro-2(3,6,9-trioxadecyloxycarbonyl)phenyl)oxalate (TDPO) and hydrogen peroxide. The calibration curve for mexiletine in rat plasma was linear over the range 20-100 ng/mL plasma (20.6-103 fmol/injection). The detection limit (S/N = 2) was 1.0 fmol over the whole procedure. The method was applied to the measurement of the time courses of plasma mexiletine concentration after oral administration of the drug [25 mg (115.9 μmol)/kg] to rats.

    Notes: The increased attention on the therapeutic implications of stereoisomerism has provided an impetus for the development of analytical methods for enantiomeric separation. The indirect method of separation of enantiomers as diastereomers using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has emerged as an efficient and versatile approach. This is due mainly to the availability of numerous chiral derivatization reagents (CDRs). This article reviews CDRs useful for the development of an indirect HPLC method using ultraviolet, fluoresence and electrochemical detection. In addition, factors crucial for the development of the indirect method are discussed.

    Notes: A sensitive method for the determination of hyoscine (scopolamine) in urine is described. After concentration and “clean-up” on C18 and CN solid phase extraction columns, hyoscine was quantified by high performance liquid chromatography with coulometric detection (oxidation at +0.9 V). The limit of detection was 5 ng per sample and the precision for 5 mL samples containing 2 ng/mL was 12.3%. The method was applied to urine samples collected from 12 volunteers wearing Scopoderm TTS patches. The mean excretion rate of unmetabolized hyoscine was 0.45 μg/h and 87% of the total hyoscine was present as conjugates. Apohyoscine (aposcopolamine) was identified as a urinary metabolite. The significance of this with regard to hyoscine assays is discussed.

    Notes: A new method for the detection of gangliosides based on the lipophilic fluorescence agent 4-(N,N-dihexadecyl)amino-7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole (NBD dihexadecylamine) and its application for preparative high performance thin layer chromatography is described. Brain gangliosides were chromatographed on silica gel coated thin layer plates and located with non-destructive fluorochrome under longwave ultraviolet light. The fluorescent zones were scraped off and the gangliosides were extracted with a mixture of chloroform/methanol/water (30/60/8; v/v/v). The gangliosides were separated from uncharged NBD dihexadecylamine by anion exchange chromatography and impurities were removed by Iatrobeads chromatography. The method described offers a simple and succesful preparative thin layer chromatographic strategy to obtain pure gangliosides in microgram and milligram quantities.

    Notes: Oosorption has been considered an important strategy in many invertebrate species which occurs in response to behavioral, ecological, or physiological factors. In crustaceans, the early light microscopic studies of the ovary attributed a role in oosorption to follicle cells, hemocytes, or phagocytes. In this study, ovaries were collected from female golden crabs following spawning and processed for examination by electron microscopy.Following spawning, several unspawned oocytes which had become dissociated from their follicle cells were found in the ovaries. They appeared to be lodged within the lumen. Such oocytes were observed undergoing various stages of autolysis. At no time were hemocytes or recognizable phagocytes found in the lumen of the ovaries or in contact with the degenerating oocytes. Follicle cells which had surrounded the oocytes prior to the time of spawning exhibited disrupted membranes. Resorption of unspawned eggs appears to occur by autolysis of the individual oocytes.Several of the females who had recently spawned had numerous sperm in their ovaries. Such sperm may have been pressed into the lumen at the time of spawning or during the fixation process.

    Notes: Light and transmission electron microscopy of the liver of juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) reveals a tubular arrangement of parenchymal cells, with biliary passages typically located at the center of tubules. Hepatocytes generally contain a single nucleus surrounded by a cuff of rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), with many round to elongate mitochondria associated with the perinuclear RER. Whereas glycogen deposits are common and usually lie at the cell periphery, parenchymal cells seldom contain lipid droplets. Golgi complexes and heterogeneous dense bodies also occur in many hepatocytes, often in close proximity to bile canaliculi. Numerous microvilli from hepatocytes extend into the subendothelial space of Disse, which is also the location of stellate fat-storing cells. Interhepatocytic macrophages, sometimes containing prominent phagolysosomes and residual bodies, are common in the liver. The intrahepatic biliary system consists of intercellular canaliculi, bile pre-ductules, ductules, and ducts. In contrast to some other teleosts, the liver of the Atlantic salmon contains no intracellular bile canaliculi or Kupffer cells. The hepatic endothelium, arterioles, and perivenous regions are also described.

    Trunk movements during locomotion in the marsupial Monodelphis domestica (didelphidae) (1992)

    Notes: The small didelphid cmarsupial, Monodelphis domestica, uses a lateral sequence walk during slow treadmill locomotion and gradually shifts to a trot as speed increases. At higher speeds it changes abruptly to a half-bound. Cinematographic records suggest significant lateral bending but no sagittal bending of the trunk during the slow walk and a reduced amount of lateral bending during the fast walk. There is slight lteral, but no sagittal, bending during the trot. Sagittal bending is obvious during the half-bound, but no lateral bending is evident. Cineradiography confirms that the vertebral column of the trunk bends laterally during the slow walk. Bending occurs throughout the trunk region, but seems to be most pronounced in the anterior lumbar region. Associated with this bending of the trunk is substantial rotation of the pelvic girdle in the plane of yaw. Pelvic rotation is synchronized with the locomotor cycle of hindlimbs. Each side of the pelvis rotates forward during the recovery phase of the ipsilateral hindlimb and backward during the contact phase of this limb. Information on locomotor trunk movements in other limbed tetrapods is limited. The pattern of trunk bending found in Monodelphis, however, is consistent with that reported in the placental mammal Felis catus and in some lepidosaurian reptiles. This suggests that sagittal bending did not replace lateral bending during the evolution of mammals, as is sometimes suggested. Rather, bending in the vertical plane seems to have been added to lateral bleeding when the ancestors of extant mammals acquired galloping and bounding capabilities.

    Notes: Scanning electron microscopy shows that lingual papillae occur all over the dorsal surface of the tongue of the freshwater turtle, Geoclemys reevesii. The surface of each papilla is composed of compactly distributed hemispherical bulges, each composed of a single cell. Microvilli are widely distributed over the surface of cells. Histological examination reveals that the connective tissue penetrates deep into the center of papillae and that the epithelium is stratified columnar. Under the transmission electron microscope, the cells of the basal and the deep intermediate layers of the epithelium appear rounded. A large nucleus lies in the central area of each cell. The cytoplasm contains mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum and free ribosomes. The cell membrane form numerous processes. The shallow intermediate layer contains two types of cell. The cytoplasm of the first has numerous fine granules, in addition to mitochondria, ribosomes, and endoplasmic reticulum. The other type of cell contains highly electron-dense granules. The surface layer shows two cell types. One type consists of typical mucous cells. The other type of cell contains fine, electron-lucent granules. The latter cells lie on the free-surface side, covering the mucous cells, and have microvilli on their free surfaces.

    Notes: The eyelids of the newt were studied in 10 μm serial paraffin and 1-2 μm plastic sections using standard histological stains and special stains for glycconjugates. The eylids contain four different glands. Simple acinar serous and simple acinar mucous glands occur in the skin; unicellular mucous glands occur in the conjunctiva; and convoluted tubular seromucous glands are present in connective tissue beneath the conjunctiva. The first two are identical to cutaneous glands found elsewhere on the head and body. The simple acinar serous glands are surrounded by myoepithelial cells and release their sectetion, which is composed largely of proteins with minimal glycoconjugate content, by a holocrine mechansm. The secretory product of the simple acinar mucous glands is composed of neutral glycoconjugates with a minor content of acidic glycoconjugates; the mucin exhibits strong PAS and PAPD staining and weak staining by AB and PAPS methods. The unicellular conjunctival mucous glands secrete both neutral and acidic glycoconjugates as shown by positive reactions with PAS, PAPD, PAPS, and AB methods. Convoluted tubular seromucous glands in the ventral eyelid synthesize both proteins and neutral glycoconjugates. The mucous secretions of the conjunctival glands probably provide lubrication and protection for the cornea.

    The effects of silicate depletion and subsequent replenishment on the cytoplasmic fine structure of the silica-secreting testate amoeba Netzelia tuberculata in laboratory culture (1992)

    Notes: In the absence of silicate in the growth medium, Netzelia tuberculata cells withdraw their feeding lobopodia, become quiescent, and cease to divide. Upon replenishment of silicate, growth resumes within 18-24 hours. Cytoplasmic changes produced by a low silicate medium result in a zonal arrangement, with siliceous particles at the outer periphery of the cytoplasm in a region rich in Golgi bodies (Region A), a more centrally located layer containing endoplasmic reticulum, lipid reserves, and finely granular cytoplasm (Region B), and a region of partially digested food and waste material fringed by fine rhizopodia extending into the central space of the test (Region C). The reserve siliceous particles in the outer peripheral cytoplasm are foreign particles that contain a fragile deposit of silica and appear to be incomplet. This may be a mechanism for conserving silica in the low-silicate medium by coating particles instead of making particles of solid silica de novo. Upon addition of silicate to the growth medium, new siliceous particles are synthesized within vacuoles in the region of the Golgi apparatus within 2-18 hours. Vacuoles containing fine silica deposits, characteristic of new particle production, are surrounded by Golgi-derived vesicles previously shown to be a source of membrane for the silica-secreting vacuoles. The newly synthesized particles are solid silica as is characteristic of de novo secreted test particles, in contrast to the numerous silica-coated foreign bodies found in quiescent cells produced in low-silicate medium.
