    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Résumé L'influence de l'insuline sur le métabolisme du glycogène hépatique et sur la lipolyse semble s'exercer par l'intermédiaire d'une diminution de la concentration de 3,′5′-AMP intracellulaire. Onamontré une diminution de la formation de 3′5′-AMP dans le tissu adipeux incubé avec de l'insuline. L'influence de l'insuline sur la dégradation du 3,′5′-AMP est étudiée. — L'activité de la 3,′5′-AMP-phos-phodiestérase (PDE) est diminuée dans le foie, le tissu adipeux et, de façon non-significative, dans le muscle strié des rats qui manquent d'insuline, c-à-d les rats rendus diabétiques par l'alloxane ou les rats privés de nourriture. L'injection intraveineuse d'une faible dose d'insuline (0.5 U/kg) ou la stimulation de la sécrétion d'insuline endogène par une injection de glucose provoquent une augmentation rapide de l'activité de la phosphodiestérase dans ces tissus. 15 min après l'injection d'insuline, l'activité de la phosphodiesterase du foie est augmentée. L'effet maximum est atteint après 30–45 min. L'activité de la phosphodiestérase rénale n'est pas diminuée dans le diabète alloxanique, l'injection d'insuline s'est avérée inefficace.In vitro, l'insuline cristalline a un effet activant sur la phosphodiestérase purifiée du coeur de boeuf. La concentration d'insuline requise pour doubler l'activité de l'enzyme est de l'ordre de 2 · 10−5 M. Le traitement avec actinomycin D empêche la stimulation par l'insuline de la PDE dans le foie. Ceci peut indiquer que l'action de l'insuline sur l'activité de la phosphodiestérase est essentiellement basée sur une synthèse accrue de l'enzyme. A cause de l'influence de la sécrétion d'insuline sur la concentration en 3,′5′-AMP du foie et du tissu adipeux, le métabolisme du glycogène et la lipolyse peuvent s'adapter rapidement à la prise de nourriture.
    Kurzfassung: Zusammenfassung An der Steigerung der Glykogensynthese der Leber und der Verminderung der Lipolyse durch Insulin ist eine Abnahme der 3′,5′-AMP-Konzentration wesentlich beteiligt. Die 3′,5′-AMP-Bildung ist in Fettgewebe, das mit Insulin inkubiert wird, vermindert. Insulin beeinflußt jedoch auch den 3′,5′-AMP-Abbau. -Die 3′,5′-AMP-Phosphodiesterase (PDE)-Aktivität des Fettgewebes, der Leber und, in geringerem Grade, der Skeletmuskulatur ist im Insulinmangel vermindert, d.h. bei alloxandiabetischen oder hungernden Ratten. I.v. Injektion von 0,5 E/kg Insulin oder eine erhöhte Abgabe von Insulin aus dem Pankreas nach Glucoseinjektion führen in diesen Geweben zu einem raschen Anstieg der PDE-Aktivität. Dieser ist in der Leber schon 15 min nach Insulingabe nachweisbar und erreicht nach 30–45 min sein Maximum. In der Niere ist kein Einfluß von Insulin auf die PDE-Aktivität nachweisbar. — Aus Rinderherz isolierte PDE wirdin vitro durch Insulin aktiviert, jedoch werden2 · 10−5 M zur Verdopplung der Aktivität benötigt. Actinomycin D verhindert die Steigerung der Leber-PDE-Aktivität nach Insulininjektion. So kann die Wirkung des Hormons im wesentlichen auf eine gesteigerte PDE-Synthese zurückgeführt werden. — Durch diesen Einfluß der Insulininkretion auf die 3′,5′-AMP-Konzentration in Leber und Fettgewebe können Glykogenstoffwechsel und Lipolyse rasch an die Nahrungsaufnahme angepaßt werden.
    Notizen: Summary Influence of insulin on liver glycogen metabolism and on lipolysis appears to be mediated by a decreased intracellular 3′,5′-AMP concentration. Reduced formation of 3′,5′-AMP had been shown in adipose tissue incubated with insulin. The influence of insulin on 3′,5′-AMP degradation has been investigated. — 3′,5′-AMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity was reduced in liver, adipose tissue and, insignificantly, in skeletal muscle of insulin deficient, i.e. alloxan diabetic or starved rats. I.V. injection of a low dose of insulin (0.5 U/kg) or stimulation of endogenous insulin secretion by injection of glucose led to a rapid increase of PDE activity in these tissues. 15 min after insulin injection liver PDE activity was increased. The maximal effect occurred after 30–45 min. Renal PDE activity was not decreased in alloxan diabetes, insulin injection has been found ineffective. —In vitro, there was an activating effect of crystalline insulin on PDE purified from beef heart. Insulin concentration required for duplication of enzyme activity was of the order of 2 · 10−5 M. Treatment with actinomycin D nearly prevented stimulation of liver PDE by insulin. This may indicate that the action of insulin on PDE activity is essentially based on an increased enzyme synthesis. — Owing to the influence of insulin secretion on liver and adipose tissue 3′,5′-AMP concentration, glycogen metabolism and lipolysis can be quickly adapted to food intake.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Résumé Il a été démontré récemment que l'hormone de croissance humaine (HGH) joue un rôle prééminent dans la régulation normale de la glycémie. De plus, il est bien connu que l'hormone de croissance peut créer un état semblable au diabète chez l'animal. Chez l'homme, l'injection de HGH ou l'hypersécrétion de l'hormone endogène dans l'acromégalie est suivie d'intolérance au glucose seulement dans 25% des cas. — Dans ce travail nous présentons des données qui mettent l'action dite diabétogène de HGH dans un contexte plus nuancé. Nous suggérons que HGH, bien que diminuant l'utilisation du glucose par les tissus périphériques, n'est pas une substance primairement diabétogène, car l'effet insulinotrope de l'hormone cause une hyperinsulinémie compensatrice, qui à son tour normalise la tolérance au glucose. HGH est diabétogène exclusivement chez les sujets prédiabétiques dont le pancréas est incapable de répondre à l'effet insulinotrope de l'hormone. Chez ces sujets, la diabétogénicité de HGH n'étant pas surmontée par une hyperinsulinémie compensatrice, la tolérance au glucose sera anormale. Ainsi, HGH peut être considérée comme unfacteur additif pour la pathogénèse du diabète sucré, la condition essentielle et primaire étant un état préexistant de prédiabète.
    Kurzfassung: Zusammenfassung Wie kürzlich gezeigt wurde, spielt das menschliche Wachstumshormon (HGH) eine wichtige Rolle bei der Kontrolle der Blutzucker-Homöostase. Ferner ist schon lange bekannt, daß die Verabreichung von Wachstumshormon an Tiere zu einem diabetesähnlichen Zustand führen kann. Beim Menschen löst die Gabe der Substanz oder die Überproduktion des endogenen Hormons bei der Akromegalie nur in etwa 25 % der Fälle eine Glucosetoleranzstörung aus. — In dieser Arbeit werden Resultate beschrieben, die ein detaillierteres Bild der sogenannten diabetogenen Wirkung des HGH vermitteln. Wir möchten annehmen, daß das HGH, obwohl es den peripheren Glucoseverbraueh herabsetzt, kein primär diabetogener Faktor ist, da es über eine Insulin-mehrausschüttung zu einem Hyperinsulinismus führt, der eine normale Glucosetoleranz bewirkt. HGH zeigt Scine diabetogene Wirkung nur bei Prädiabetikern, deren Pankreas den stimulierenden Effekt des Hormons auf die Insulinausschüttung nicht beantworten kann. Bei diesen Personen kann eine Störung der Glucosetoleranz dadurch entstehen, daß die diabetogene Wirkung des HGH nicht durch einen kompensatorischen Hyperinsulinismus ausgeglichen wird. HGH kann daher als ein Zusatzfaktor bei der Diabetesentstehung angesehen werden, deren Hauptvorbedingung jedoch eine schon vorher bestehende prädiabetische Stoffwechselsituation darstellt.
    Notizen: Summary Human growth hormone (HGH) has recently been shown to play a prominent role in the control of blood glucose homeostasis. Furthermore, it has long been known that administration of growth hormone in animals can induce a diabetes-like state. In human subjects, exogenous administration of HGH or hypersecretion of the endogenous hormone in acromegaly is accompanied by glucose intolerance in only about 25 per cent of the cases. — In this paper, data are presented which give a more diversified picture of the so-called diabetogenic action of HGH. It is suggested that HGH, although decreasing the peripheral utilization of glucose, is not a primary diabetogenic factor, since its insulinogenic action causes a compensatory hyperinsulinism, with normal glucose tolerance as the result. HGH is diabetogenic only in prediabetic subjects whose pancreas is unable to respond to the insulinogenic effect of the hormone. In such subjects, the diabetogenic action of HGH not being counterbalanced by a compensatory hyperinsulinism, glucose intolerance may result. Thus, HGH may be regarded as anadditional factor for the development of diabetes, the major prerequisite being a preëxisting prediabetic state.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Résumé Peu de progrès conduisant à la compréhension du diabète en termes moléculaires ont été réalisés. La possibilité qu'il existe une modification dans la structure de l'insuline des diabétiques, aussi bien circulante que pancréatique, s'appuie sur trois arguments expérimentaux obtenus au laboratoire des auteurs. — La purification immunochimique de l'insuline circulante de diabétiques jeunes non traités par l'insuline a d'abord conduit à la constatation que cette insuline est relativement résistante à l'action réductrice et protéolytique d'une préparation d'insulinase musculaire. De plus, l'insuline pancréatique, isolée à partir de cinq pancréas diabétiques, s'est avérée d'activité biologique diminuée quant à son pouvoir d'augmenter la synthèse du glycogènein vivo et à sa capacité d'accélérer le “turnover” du R.N.A. en culture tissulaire. — La nature de cette „insuline anormale” et son rôle possible dans la physiopathologie du diabète sont examinés à la lumière de la nécessité de donner une définition spécifique de la modification moléculaire précise.
    Kurzfassung: Zusammenfassung Unsere Kenntnisse über den Diabetes in molekularbiologischer Sicht haben kaum Fortschritte gemacht. Die Möglichkeit, daß das zirkulierende und das Pankreas-Insulin des Diabetikers strukturelle Unterschiede aufweisen, wird durch die Ergebnisse von drei verschiedenen Untersuchungsreihen gestützt, die im Laboratorium der Verfasser durchgeführt wurden. — Immunologisch gereinigtes zirkulierendes Insulin von Diabetikern, die noch kein Insulin erhalten hatten, erwies sich als recht widerstandsfähig gegenüber dem Abbau durch ein Insulinase-Rohextrakt aus Muskelgewebe. Aus den Bauchspeicheldrüsen von 5 Diabetikern gewonnenes Insulin zeigte sowohl in seiner Fähigkeit, die Glycogen-Synthesein vivo, als auch den Ribonucleinsäuren-Umsatz in der Gewebskultur zu stimulieren, eine herabgesetzte biologische Aktivität. — Bei der Diskussion der Natur dieses „abnormen” Insulins und seiner hypothetischen Rolle in der Physiopathologie des Diabetes ergibt sich besonders deutlich, wie dringend erforderlich eine genauere Klärung des in diesem Falle vorliegenden molekularen Umbaus ist.
    Notizen: Summary Understanding of diabetes in molecular terms has advanced very little. The possibility that a structural difference exists in the circulating and pancreatic insulin moiety of diabetics is supported by three lines of evidence obtained in the authors' laboratory. — Immunologically purified circulating insulin from diabetic subjects untreated with insulin was noted to be relatively resistant to degradation by a crude muscle insulinase preparation. The pancreatic insulin of five diabetic pancreases was found to have a decreased biological activity in its ability to enhance glycogen synthesisin vivo and in its capacity to stimulate RNA turnover in tissue culture. — The nature of this “abnormal insulin” and its hypothetical role in the physiopathology of diabetes are discussed in the light of the need for a specific definition of the precise molecular change.

Cette fraction protéique est de taille supérieure à l'insuline, possède l'immunoréactivité propre à l'insuline, et après traitement limité par la trypsine elle est transformée en un peptide semblable à l'insuline.
    Kurzfassung: Zusammenfassung Die Inkubierung von Dünnschnitten des fötalen Rinder-Pankreas in Gegenwart vom H3- Leucin ergab einen Einbau dieser Amminosäure in eine Eiweißfraktion, die die Eigenschaften eines, Pro-Insulins' aufwies. Das Molekulargewicht dieser Eiweißfraktion war größer als dasjenige des Insulins; sie besaß die Immunreaktivität des Insulins und konnte durch teilweisen Abbau mit Trypsin in ein insulinähnliches Peptid umgewandelt werden.
    Notizen: Summary Incubation of fœtal bovine pancreas slices resulted in the incorporation of3H-leucine into a protein fraction which appeared to have the properties of a ‘proinsulin’. This protein fraction was larger in size than insulin, possessed the immunoreactivity of insulin and was converted by limited trypsin treatment to a peptide similar to insulin.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Résumé L'effet des acides biliaires sur le dosage radioimmunologique de l'insuline a été examiné et les résultats ont montré que les acides biliaires en concentrations physiologiques nuisent à la liaison de l'insuline avec le sérum anti-insulinique. La courbe de dilution de l'insuline immunoréaetive dans la bile de la vésicule biliaire porcine n'était pas parallèle à celle de l'insuline porcine standard. Après extraction de la bile porcine par du sérum antiinsulinique et après dosage de l'extrait, des taux d'insuline plus bas ont été trouvés. Les résultats suggèrent qu'une partie seulement de «l'insuline immunoreactive» de la bile de la vésicule biliaire représente de l'insuline véritable.
    Kurzfassung: Zusammenfassung Die Wirkung von Gallensäuren auf die radio-immunologische Insulinbestimmung wurde untersucht. Aus den Resultaten geht hervor, daß Gallensäuren in physiologischen Konzentrationen zu einer Störung der Insulinbindung an Anti-Insulinserum führen. Die Verdünnungskurve von immunoreaktivem Insulin im Gallensaft aus Schweinegallenblasen verlief nicht parallel zur Standard-Eichkurve von Schweineinsulin. Nach Extraktion der Schweinegalle mit Anti-Insulinserum fanden sich im Extrakt niedrigere Insulinkonzentrationen. Die Ergebnisse deuten darauf hin, daß nur ein Teil des „immunoreaktiven Insulins” in der Blasengalle echtes Insulin ist.
    Notizen: Summary The effect of bile acids on the radioimmunoassay of insulin has been investigated, and the results show that bile acids in physiological concentrations interfere with the binding of insulin by anti-insulin serum. The dilution curve of immunoreactive insulin in pig gall-bladder bile was not parallel to that of standard pig insulin. After extraction of pig bile with anti-insulin serum and assay of the extract, lower insulin levels were found. The results suggest that only a part of the “immunoreactive insulin” in gall-bladder bile is genuine insulin.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung An 102 Zellen des Zwerchfells von insgesamt 7 Ratten mit alimentärem Kaliummangel fanden wir unter dem Einfluß von Insulin (0,1 I.E./ml) eine Depolarisation um 11,2 mV, nämlich von −94,6 (s=±6,4) mV bei insgesamt 100 Zellen auf −83,4 (s=±6,8)mV (p 〈 0,001). Die Kaliumkonzentration in der Inkubationslösung betrug 4,7 (s=±0,29) mval/l. — Ferner steigt die bei kaliumverarmten Tieren erniedrigte intracelluläre Kaliumkonzentration unter Insulineinfluß von 107 (s=±12) mval/lH2O IZR auf 130 (s=±19,8) mval/lH2O IZR an (p〈0,05). Die Befunde sprechen dafür, daß Insulin bei kaliumverarmten Tieren einen Netto-Kaliumeinstrom bewirkt, der eine Abnahme des Membranpotentials zur Folge hat.
    Notizen: Summary In 102 single muscle cells of 7 rats with alimentary potassium depletion we found under influence of insulin (0.1 I.U./ml) a depolarisation of 11.2 mV, i.e. from −94.6 (s=±6.4)mV (100 cells) to −83.4 (s=±6.8)mV (p〈0.001). The potassium concentration in the incubation medium was 4.7 (s=±0.29) mequ/l. — In addition we measured under influence of insulin (0.1 I.U./ml) an intracellular potassium concentration of 130 mval/lH2O IZR, which is probably higher than in potassium deficient animals without insulin (p〈0.05). These findings suggest that insulin produces a netto potassium influx in potassium deficient animals, which could explain the depolarisation.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung Lebergewebe von Ratten, die mit Tolbutamid, mit anderen blutzuckerwirksamen Sulfonylharnstoffderivaten oder mit Insulin behandelt worden waren, bildet bei Inkubation in vitro mehr Bilirubinglucuronid als das Gewebe unbehandelter Kontrolltiere. Dieser Effekt wurde 2 Std nach der intraperitonealen Injektion der blutzuckersenkenden Stoffe nachgewiesen, er tritt dosisabhängig auf und ist mit der blutzuckersenkenden Wirkung gut korreliert. Ein dem Tolbutamid chemisch verwandtes, jedoch blutzuckerunwirksames Methylsulfonylharnstoffderivat hatte diese Wirkung nicht. Die Steigerung der Glucuronidsynthese ist dadurch bedingt, daß in der Leberzelle während einer Insulin- oder Sulfonylharnstoffhypoglykämie vermehrt aktivierte Glucuronsäure (UDPGA) für die Konjugation bereitgestellt wird. Die Aktivität des für die Konjugationsreaktion verantwortlichen Enzyms, der UDP-Glucuronyltransferase, war unter unseren Versuchsbedingungen nicht verändert. Es fanden sich keine Anhaltspunkte dafür, daß in der Insulin- oder Sulfonylharnstoffhypoglykämie die Bildung von UDPGA aus UDPG beschleunigt erfolgt. Die Aktivität der UDPG-Dehydrogenase war nicht verändert, auch Faktoren, die eine Bildung von UDPGA begünstigen könnten, wie ein erhöhter NAD+/NADH-Quotient und eine gesteigerte ATP-Konzentration im Gewebe, waren nach Tolbutamid nicht nachzuweisen.
    Notizen: Summary Liver tissue of rats pretreated with tolbutamide, with other hypoglycaemic sulfonylurea compounds, or with insulin formed more bilirubinglucuronide when incubated in vitro than the tissue of untreated controls. The effect was present two hours after the blood sugar lowering agents had been injected intraperitoneally. It was dose-dependent and well correlated to the hypoglycaemic response. A methylated sulfonylurea compound, which is chemically closely related to tolbutamide but devoid of blood sugar lowering activity failed to show this effect. Glucuronide formation in hypoglycaemia induced by insulin or tolbutamide is increased as more activated glucuronic acid (UDPGA) is made available to the conjugation reaction. There was no change in the activity of the enzyme responsible for glucuronide synthesis, the UDP-glucuronyl-transferase, in our experiments. There was no indication that the formation of UDPGA from UDPG was accelerated by insulin or sulfonylureas. There was no change in the activity of the hepatic UDPG-dehydrogenase. Factors which could favour the formation of UDPGA such as an increased NAD+/NADH ratio or an elevated ATP concentration in the tissue were not present following tolbutamide.

Un título elevado de anticuerpos antiinsulina se asocia a una disminución sensible de la sensibilidad a la insulina (0,1 U/kg i.v.).
    Notizen: Riassunto Vengono presentati i risultati ottenuti con l'impiego di una metodica di semplice esecuzione per la ricerca di anticorpi anti-insulina, basata sull'impiego di insulina I125 o I131 e sulla successiva precipitazione con alcool assoluto del complesso antigene-anticorpo. Gli anticorpi anti-insulina sono stati riscontrati con grande frequenza solo in pazienti diabetici già sottoposti a trattamento insulinico. Un elevato titolo di anticorpi anti-insulina si associa ad una diminuzione marcata della sensibilità all'insulina (0,1 U/kg i.v.).

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Resume Des préparations hautement purifiées de gastrine, sécrétine et pancréozymine ont été injectées par voie endoportale chez des chiens anesthésiés, en vue d'examiner les influences possibles des hormones gastro-intestinales sur la sécrétion des îlots de Langerhans. On a vu que les trois hormones provoquent une augmentation immédiate de la concentration d'insuline dans la veine pancréatico-duodénale. L'effet de la gastrine sur la libération d'insuline était insignificant quantitativement, tandis que celui de la sécrétine était plus important et de plus grande durée; cependant la pancréozymine semblait être le stimulant le plus puissant et déterminer en outre une augmentation parallèle de la sécrétion pancréatique de glucagon. On a démontré de plus que la pancréozymine augmentait la réponse tant de l'insuline que du glucagon à l'hyperaminoacidémie. On a observé que l'administration intraduodénale d'acides aminés, qui représente notoirement la stimulation la plus puissante de la pancréozymine endogène, est en mesure de déterminer une libération plus grande et plus rapide d'insuline et de glucagon par rapport à l'administration intraveineuse d'acides aminés, ce qui fait supposer que la pancréozymine endogène joue un rôle physiologique lorsque la réponse de l'hormone des cellules insulaires aux acides aminés ingérés est augmentée. Le facteur physiologique qui augmente la réponse insulaire au glucose ingéré reste toutefois inconnu.
    Kurzfassung: Resumen Medicamentos altamente purificados de gastrina, secretina y pancreozimina han sido inyectados por via intraportal a perros anestesiados, con el fin de examinar las posibles influencias de las hormonas gastro-intestinales sobre la secreción de las hormonas de las islas de Langerhans. Se ha notado que las tres hormonas producen aumento inmediato de la concentración de insulina en la vena pancreática-duodenal. El efecto de la gastrina sobre la liberación de insulina era insignificante cuantitativamente, mientras el de la secretina era apreciable y de mayor duración; sin embargo, parecía que la pancreozimina fuese el estimulante más potente y que además determinava aumento paralelo de la secreción pancreática de glucagón. Además se ha demostrado que la pancreozimina aumentava la respuesta, ya de la insulina, ya del glucagón, a la hiperaminoacidemia. La administración intraduodenal de aminoácidos, que representa notoriamente el más potente estímulo de la pancreozimina endógena, está en grado de provocar una liberación mayor y más rápida de insulina y glucagón, que la administración intravenosa de aminoácidos; cosa que hace pensar que la pancreozimina endógena ejerce un papel fisiológico cuando aumenta la respuesta de la hormona de las células de las islas a los aminoácidos ingeridos. Sin embargo, el factor fisiológico que aumenta la respuesta insular a la glucosa ingerida, queda desconocido.
    Notizen: Riassunto Preparati altamente purificati di gastrina, secretina e pancreozimina sono stati iniettati per via endoportale in cani anestetizzati, allo scopo di esaminare le possibili influenze degli ormoni gastro-intestinali sulla secrezione degli ormoni delle isole di Langerhans. Si è riscontrato che tutti e tre gli ormoni provocano un immediato aumento della concentrazione di insulina nella vena pancreatico-duodenale. L'effetto della gastrina sulla liberazione di insulina era quantitativamente insignificante, mentre quello della secretina era più rilevante e di maggiore durata; tuttavia sembrava che la pancreozimina fosse il più potente stimolatore e che inoltre determinasse un aumento parallelo della secrezione pancreatica di glucagone. Per di più si è dimostrato che la pancreozimina aumentava la risposta sia dell'insulina che del glucagone alla iperaminoacidemia. La somministrazione intraduodenale di aminoacidi, che rappresenta notoriamente la più potente stimolazione della pancreozimina endogena, è stata riscontrata in grado di determinare una liberazione maggiore e più rapida di insulina e di glucagone rispetto alla somministrazione endovenosa di aminoacidi, il che fa pensare che la pancreozimina endogena svolga un ruolo fisiologico nell'aumentare la risposta dell'ormone delle cellule insulari agli aminoacidi ingeriti. Tuttavia il fattore fisiologico che aumenta la risposta insulare al glucosio ingerito rimane sconosciuto.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung Bei Kaninchen, Meerschweinchen, Mäusen und Ratten wurde der Einfluß von Xylit auf die Insulinhypoglykämie untersucht. Es zeigte sich, daß Xylit die durch große intravenöse Insulindosen hervorgerufenen neurogenen Störungen (Lähmungserscheinungen, Krämpfe) zu beseitigen bzw. zu verhüten vermag. Gleichzeitig kommt es zu einem Wiederanstieg der Glucosekonzentration im Blut. Die möglichen Mechanismen dieser Wirkung werden diskutiert.
    Notizen: Summary The influence of xylitol on insulin-induced hypoglycemia was studied in rabbits, guinea pigs, mice, and rats. Relief of hypoglycemia and the concomitant disturbances of the nervous system was observed following the injection of xylitol. The possible mechanisms of this action are discussed.

    Notizen: The cells surrounding a wound in the integument of Rhodnius adults show an increase in RNA content, cytochrome oxidase and esterase activity. An excision in the integument is filled by blood which coagulates and is tanned into an insoluble membrane. The basement membrane of the adjoining epidermis acts as a self-sealing membrane and contracts to cover the excision. The epidermis is attached to the cuticle by the subcuticular layer which it resorbs and by pore canal filaments which are left behind as it migrates. The epidermis migrates as a sheet in contact with the cuticle then with the coagulated blood and basement membrane which cover the excision. Blood cells migrate individually into an excision and do not adhere to a surface in the process. Microtubules cannot be identified with movement. Both epidermal and blood cells remove the cells killed by wounding as evidenced by the appearance of coated vesicles and phagocytic bodies in both cell types. The reconstituted integument consists of a surface membrane in which the layers of the epicuticle are not distinguishable, a nonlamellate cuticle secreted by an epidermis which also appears to secrete the new basement membrane.

    Notizen: The development of intraneural vessels was studied in response to an induced hypermorphosis of neural tissue inthe midbrains of 38 chick embryos ranging in age from three days through 14 days of incubation. The pattern of vascularization was compared with that of normal chick embryos at comparable stages of development. In the experimental embryos, the increase in mitotic figures along the ventricular borders of the mesencephalon is accompanied by the establishment of an endoneural plexus approximately one day earlier than is the case during normal vascularization of the midbrain. This plexus also penetrates more deeply and extensively into the ependymal layer. Surface vessels and intraneural vascular elements are dilated, and the cerebrospinal fluid contains varying amounts of blood released from large intraneural vessels which protrude into the ventricle. The most prominent cerebrovascular effects seem to occur between the fourth and eighth days of incubation. Thereafter, the cerebrovascular pattern becomes more normal except for relatively few isolated hemorrhagic areas.

    Notizen: The eye of Haideotriton wallacei is more reduced histologically than those of othe troglobitic salamanders. The tiny eye is imbedded in a mass of adipose tissue. No extrinsic eye muscles are present. A rudimentary lens is present in about half of the eyes examined. In two instances the lens is surrounded by a small chamber; most eyes lack a chamber. The retina and iris are relatively undifferentiated. The relatively massive retina lacks rods and cones, an outer plexiform layer and subdivided nuclear layers. A tiny optic nerve runs to the brain.

    Notizen: The aesthetascs, short thin-walled pegs on the antennule flagella of Coenobita clypeatus, a terrestrial hermit crab, are similar to those of other decapod crustacea in containing the dendrites of many bipolar neurons whose cell bodies are grouped in spindle-shaped masses beneath the bases of each hair. The dendrites contain rootlets, basal bodies, and cilia, which divide dichotomously before entering the aesthetasc, so that within the hair, each cilium becomes represented by a group of slender branches.The aesthetascs themselves are short, blunt, and partially recumbent so that each has an exposed and an unexposed side. The cuticle on the exposed side is thinner and more tenuous than that on the protected side, and the dendrite branches are concentrated just underneath. The protected side, on the other hand, is lined with nondendritic supporting cells, and the cuticle is thicker, more lamellar, and probably less permeable.All dendritic elements proximal to the dendrite branches are enclosed within the main body of the antennular flagellum, and the initial segments of the cilia lie within a vacuole. In these respects, the aesthetascs of Coenobita resemble the thin-walled pegs on insect antennae more than they do those of the marine decapods thus far examined. This convergence in the terrestrial forms may be in response to the need to conserve water.

    Notizen: The Brittle Star digestive system is composed of buccal, pharyngeal, esophageal and stomach cavities. The buccal and pharyngeal cavities are lined by columnar cells covered by a cuticle, and are apparently concerned with mucous production. Coelomocytes and tall columnar cells are described in the esophagus and stomach epithelia. The columnar cells are adapted for nutrient absorption, enzyme synthesis, and lipid storage. Nerves are found beneath the epithelia within a connective tissue layer. Smooth muscle and coelomic layers lie external to the connective tissue layer. The coelomic layer lines a perivisceral space and has diverse modifications of its perivisceral surface; a pedicle-cuticle modification perhaps having general significance in echinoderms.

    Notizen: Two complete composite photographs of the optic nerve of Limulus, made by electron microscopy, reveal the presence of neurosecretory granules in the large axons of the rudimentary eye neurons. The number of intermediate sized, (3-7 μ), of eccentric cells corresponds with the number of ommatidia as expected, but only their sheath of Schwann cells show an intimate interfolding. Based on the number of fine axons within the nerve each ommatidium has an average of 12-13 retinular cells. The diameter of their fibers is between 0.2 and 3 μ although the majority are between 1 and 1.5 μ. They are aggregated into bundles of six to seven fibers by the sheath cells although some bundles contain only two, others as many as 181 fibers. There is no indication in these studies that retinular cell axons within a bundle are associated with the same, adjacent, or other pattern of ommatidia. The photographs suggest that physiological activity in retinular cell axons might be detected most easily in the smallest bundles because they contain the fewest, but the larger retinular cell axons.

    Notizen: The lateral and ventral external surfaces of the third and fourth abdominal segments were described and muscle attachments were correlated with surface indentations of the larva. The proleg of this species has a symmetrical planta with a complete circle of crochets. Furthermore, it differs externally from the grasping type of proleg in having a largely membranous coxal region confluent with the body wall, and a relatively large subcoxal lobe.The body wall musculature and innervation of the third and fourth abdominal segments are similar in many respects to those described for other lepidopteran larvae to which they are here compared, but differ from most because of the simpler structure of the prolegs which lack highly developed adductor muscles. Like most muscles innervated by the ventral nerve, the principal plantar retractors of these two segments cease to function in the first day of the pupal stage and have completely degenerated by the forty-fifth hour of pupal life. The ventral nerve retains its four primary branches in the adult, in which many smaller rami can be traced to the cuticle and to the neoblastic body wall muscles.

    Notizen: The gross anatomy of muscles, the topography of nerve tissues, and the histology of the pregenital abdominal glands of Nomia melanderi Ckll. are reported in detail. The movable and fixed points of muscle attachment were utilized in establishing a system of nomenclature for a typical abdominal segment. Names of nervules correspond to those of the tissues they innervate. The points of attachment of muscles of the fifth abdominal segment are essentially the same in both Nomia and Apis, except for the second tergo-sternal muscle which, in Nomia, has shifted its point of movable attachment to the membranous integument in front of the intersegmental membrane gland where it helps in relasing glandular secretion. The general plan of the nerves in the fifth abdominal segment in Nomia is more diffuse than in Apis, but there is no difficulty in establishing homology between the nervules of the two species. A pair of intersegmental stretch organs was found in abdominal segments 3-6. Glands of the sixth intersegmental membrane possess a reservoir with peripheral pouches both of which are absent in those of the fifth. Both types of glands have neither closing nor opening mechanisms, and neither is innervated. Release of glandular secretion is accomplished by the action of the tergo-sternal muscles.

    Notizen: This report describes the capacity of larvae of the Leopard frog, Rana pipiens, to regenerate pineal tissue after embryonic pinealectomy, and presents experimental evidence for frontal organ dependence on the epiphysis. In addition, it was found that the “brow spot,” a pigment-free region located in the epidermis betweeen the eyes, is dependent on the frontal organ for its formation. This report also substantiates that the absence of the pineal organ in larval animals does not affect growth or development through metamorphosis.

    Notizen: Interest in the structure of the antennae of the Florida Queen butterfly arises from the finding that a pheromone is active in their courtship. Light and electron microscopic techniques were used to study the sensilla on the antennae and three types of sensilla with perforated walls were identified. The most common of these are short, thin-walled pegs which are distributed over most of the antennal surface. Long, curved, thin-walled pegs occur in patches on the inner medial antennal surface. Multiple coeloconic sensilla are present having up to 50 pegs in one sensillum. On the outer 28 flagellar subsegments there are two such sensilla per subsegment. In addition there are on the antennae long, thick-walled hairs which are mechanoreceptors and probably also contact chemoreceptors. Sunken pegs, the function of which is not known, occur on the antennae. Grooved sensilla were found with the electron microscope but could not be identified with the light microscope. There was no indication of sexual dimorphism in sensilla types or numbers on the antennae.

    Notizen: Succinic dehydrogenase, NAD and NADP diaphorases, choline oxidase, d-amino acid oxidase, α-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, glutamic dehydrogenase, lactic dehydrogenase and aldolase were identified histochemically in the esophagus and proventriculus of the developing chick embryo. In general, the deep glands of the proventriculus reacted more strongly than the epithelium and mucous glands of the esophagus to the tests. The intensity of the enzymatic activity seems correlated with the number of mitochondria and metabolic activity of the cells.

    Notizen: Two kinds of tactile hairs, plain and wavy, thick-walled chemoreceptors and two types of thin-walled chemoreceptors are present on the antennal flagellum of Gromphadorhina portentosa males. These are described and their location on the antenna noted. Females of this species have plain tactile hairs and the same types of chemoreceptors as do the males but wavy tactile hairs are absent. The antennal sense organs of a few specimens of five other species of cockroaches  -  Periplaneta americana, Blatta orientalis, Supella longipalpa, Pycnoscelus surinamensis and Diploptera punctata  -  were also examined. All lacked tactile hairs but were provided with thick-walled chemoreceptors and with two types of thin-walled chemoreceptors similar to those described for Gromphadorhina portentosa.

    Notizen: Pulse labeling with tritiated thymidine has permitted the identification of a progenitor cell compartment at the base of the hypostomal glandular ridges of the marine hydroid Podocoryne carnea. This progenitor compartment produces cells which move out on the ridges differentiate as digestive gland cells, and are ejected into the gastro-vascular cavity. Spherous gland cells of the body appear not to be part of this circumscribed replacement system. There appears to be no proximal movement of gastrodermal cells in the body of this marine hydroid.

    Notizen: Among eight species of mammals in this study (cattle, sheep, pig-tail and rhesus monkeys, rabbit, pig, rat, and dog) four basic patterns of anatomical structure at the uterotubal junction are described. The classification of types is based upon the presence or absence of an intramural portion of the oviduct and of isthmal folds or plicae projecting into the lumen of the uterine cornu.Histological variations are reported for three tissues: epithelial and connective of the mucosa and smooth muscle of the tunica muscularis. In the epithelium during the estrous cycle the differences recorded include: (a) absence of ciliated cells in the distal end of the oviduct in rat and dog; (b) variations in ciliated and nonciliated cells in (1) cell height, (2) location, shape and stainability of the nucleus, and (3) in amount and stainability of apical cytoplasm; (c) presence of lymphoblast-like cells which appear to migrate through the epithelium from the lamina propria. The connective tissue of the mucosa, as a circular layer and as cores for the mucosal folds, shows variations in thickness and in relative density of cells and fibers of the matrix. Emphasis is given to the presence of an inner longitudinal layer of smooth muscle in the tunica muscularis of the distal oviduct in six of the eight species.

    Notizen: The structure of cells in the colleterial glands of the Cecropia silkmoth was examined. Morphologically and functionally the gland is divided into two regions, a tubular one in which columnar protein-synthesizing cells are located, and an expanded region in which flattened cells with very different structure are most prominent. The fine structure of the latter cells which are presumed to secrete a phenolic glucoside, closely resembles that of cells described in the colleterial glands of orthopterans. The protein-secreting cells have many features normally associated with pancreatic acinar, and other cells of similar function. Among these are extensive rough endoplasmic reticulum, an elaborate Golgi complex, and a modest number of mitochondria. Other features which are less usual in cells of this type are an elaborate secretory apparatus consisting of a cuticular tubule inserted into a microvilli-lined cavity at the apical end of the cell, and large numbers of cytolysomes, myelin figures, and lipid droplets. A chitogenous cell with a very distinct and specific type of ultrastructure is found associated with the secretory cell. This cell type is attached to the cuticular elements of the gland, and the main features of its cytoplasm are extensive bundles of microtubules which presumably serve as supportive elements for the secretory cells.

    Notizen: Embryonic chick myocardium (stages 8+ to 12-) was studied by light and electron microscopy. The myocardium, which is initially comprised of radially oriented cells with large intercellular spaces gradually becomes more tightly packed. Intercellular spaces decrease and the cells assume a circumferential orientation. Myocardial cells remain epithelial throughout formation of the functional tubular heart and specialized epithelial junctions (apical junctional complex or terminal bars) undergo modification to form intercalated discs. Embryonic myocardial cells contain large amounts of free ribosomes and particulate glycogen, the latter often associated with portions of granular reticulum. Unlike developing skeletal muscle. The amount of granular reticulum contained in the myocardial cell cytoplasm is large and, along with a hypertrophied Golgi apparatus, suggests that these cells may have a secretory function. These organelles persist during the initial period of fibril formation. Myofibrils apparently form from non filamentous precursor material and not by alignment of sequentially synthesized components.

    Notizen: The characteristic anoline climbing organ consists of a number of lamellar scales, on whose outer scale surface are numerous keratinized setae which contact the substrate. These setae are derived from the Oberhautchen of the epidermal generation, and as such are renewed and shed periodically along with the rest of the epidermal material. The histological development of the setae is described, and modifications of the surrounding elements are noted. The relative lengths of the setae and their congregation to form a pad unit poses certain mechanical problems during morphogenesis, simply in terms of accommodation between the functional outer epidermal generation and dermal core of each lamella. Regression of the dermal core and a distal migration of some cells permits accommodation within the lamella for the distal aspect of the Oberhautchen layer, or free margin. Additionally, changes in the gross shape of the lamella occur throughout the sloughing cycle, and a swelling of the cells of the lacunar tissue results in a gap between the stratum corneum of inner and outer epidermal generations. There is a considerable amount of variation in mitotic activity between the germinal layers of opposite sides of the lamella.

    Notizen: Function and ultrastructure of the excretory organs (antennal glands) of the shore crab Uca mordax were investigated. The crabs were maintained at three different salinities: 50%, 100% and 200% seawater. In spite of previous reports to the contrary, the investigation showed that the powerful osmoregulatory ability found in Uca mordax is not due to participation of the antennal glands. Freezing point depression of urine under all conditions was found to be slightly less than that of the hemolymph, indicating a slightly hypoosmotic urine. It was further found that the antennal gland is extremely effective in resorbing sodium from the filtrate. The higher the salinity to which the crabs were acclimated the lower the sodium concentration in the urine. No water was resorbed from the filtrate as shown by the fact that the inulin U/P ratio remained unity regardless of the salinity to which the crabs were adapted. Electronmicroscopy of the antennal glands revealed that the coelomosac cells are similar to the podocytes described in the crayfish by Kümmel ('64), and the coelomosac appears to be a typical filtration organ. The cells of the labyrinth showed brush border and very elaborate basal infoldings with numerous mitochondria. The deep cytoplasmic infoldings which represent interdigitations with neighboring cells may be correlated with the effective sodium reabsorption in the labyrinth, but apparently not with water movement.

    Notizen: Mitochondria in early spermatids of many insects aggregate and form a round body, the nebenkern. The nebenkern undergoes a structural differentiation and then divides into two separate equal-sized bodies. In the present study, nebenkerns of Murgantia histrionica, a Hemipteran insect, were reconstructed using electron micrographs of serial sections to determine how the mitochondria transform into the two separate bodies.Newly formed nebenkerns are made of one piece, an anastomosis of rod-like segments. Some segments interconnect to join networks of rings. Each network interlocks with another similar network, but networks which interlock are connected with each other by other segments of the nebenkern. Later, the entire nebenkern is made of two unconnected and interlocked networks of rings. The nebenkern appears to remain bipartite during subsequent differentiation. Since the two pieces are interlocked, breaks must occur before the pieces can separate. As breaks occur, each network transforms into a set of curved sheets, producing a nebenkern made of four concentric layers. The three outer layers are each made of two curved sheets which surround a bipartite central core. The surface sheets meet at a furrow in the surface of the nebenkern; segments in each layer are roughly symmetrical with each other about the plane in which the furrow lies. Rod-like segments join alternate segments. The number of layers then decreases to three, and later, to two. These nebenkerns resemble four-layered nebenkerns, but fewer connections between alternate segments are present. The two pieces constituting the nebenkern probably separate after most of the latter connections disappear. Hypotheses to account for the observed changes in nebenkern structure are presented.

    Notizen: Adult sloths (Bradypus tridactylus) were studied by electrocardiography and by light and electron microscopy under normal conditions and under experimental conditions as provided for by injection of 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) and ether anesthesia. ECG's of the animals indicated heart rates of 45-71/min, which can be considered as the normal heart rate of the sloth under laboratory conditions. Under normal conditions, the contracted ventricular myocardium of the sloth exhibited (a) a wrinkled sarcolemma, (b) the usual pattern of myofibrils and of sarcoplasmic reticulum, (c) small mitochondria with spiked and branched, often anastomosed cristae, including a few small intramitochondrial dark bodies, (d) an amount of sacrcosomes smaller than the amount of myofibrils, (e) many glycogen granules, isolated, in the form of a chain, or as clusters, in subsarcolemmal, intermyofilamentous and perimitochondrial positions, (f) few multivesicular bodies and (g) large flat sections of the transverse tubular system.Injection of DNP (1 mg/kg) caused tachycardia. With ether anesthesia, the ECG showed monophasic action potential of myocardial injury and prolongation of inter or intraventricular condition. Electrically, the sloth's heart responded to hypoxia as do other mammalian hearts.The administration of DNP produced (a) derangement and reduction in number and length of the mitochondrial cristae, (b) disappearance of spikes, connections between the cristae and, consequently, the honeycombed arrangement, (c) increased matricial space in the center of mitochondria which was often filled with a grayish substance, (d) disappearance of small dark intramitochondrial granules, (e) depletion of glycogen particles and (f) few dilations in the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

    Notizen: Latex endocranial casts, which may be made without damaging the skull, reveal much of the information provided by a hemisected skull. Examination of drawings of endocasts superimposed on skulls may provide insight into the biological significance of skull and brain morphology. The high degree of cranial flexion and the globose brain shape of Daubentonia appear to be related to the functional demands of its gnawing mechanism. The broad frontal lobes of indriids are correlated with orbital orientation; differences in frontal lobe sulcal pattern suggest greater elaboration of the motor filed for the hand in indriids than in lemurids. Several features of lorisid cranial anatomy are discussed. It is suggested that, as a first approximation, increased splanchnocranial declination in small prosimians results from the necessity of accommodating relatively large eyes in a skull with a relatively small splanchnocranium.

    Notizen: In March through April when the oocyte growth in the ovaries of the wall lizard (Hemidactylus) is very rapid, the yolk nucleus continues to persist through various stages of previtellogenesis. This persisting yolk nucleus and associated cell components have been studied with histochemical techniques. The spherical and dense yolk nucleus stains for protein, lipoprotein and RNA. It does not form any close morphological association with the other cell components such as the mitochondria, lipid bodies (L2), spaces or canals, diffuse sudanophilic substance and dense bodies, which are arranged into three zones round the yolk nucleus proper. The mitochondria stain for lipoprotein; the L2 bodies consist of phospholipid; the spaces do not contain any material demonstrable with histochemical techniques; and the ooplasm containing the diffuse sudanophilic substance and dense bodies shows lipoprotein, protein and RNA. Eventually, the yolk nucleus disintegrates, and its substance as well as the other cell components are distributed in the cortical ooplasm of oocytes which are ready to form the yolk bodies.Concepts of the origin, morphology, cytochemistry and function of the yolk nucleus in the oocytes of invertebrates and vertebrates, which have come about recently through the application of cytochemical and submicroscopical techniques, are discussed.

    Notizen: Symmetrical gaits of 37 breeds of dogs were analyzed. Usual walking and trotting gaits resemble those of other carnivores of similar size and conformation. Only certain long-legged dogs pace - usually at the fast walk or slow run. At the moderate walk, long-legged dogs tend to use lateral-couplets gaits, whereas short-legged breeds tend to use single-foot gaits. Many dogs must turn the axis of the body slightly from the line of travel at the trot to prevent interference between fore and hind feet. The relative duration with the ground made by fore and hind feet is discussed, usual support-sequences of the varicus gaits are presented, and the amount of variation is shown.

    Notizen: Electron microscope autoradiography was used to study cartilage from regenerating limbs of adult newts, Triturus, after intraperitoneal injections of proline-3H. The labeling in the endoplasmic reticulum, small vesicles, Golgi vacuoles, ground cytoplasm and extracellular matrix was compared during the secretion of radioactive products. The data appear to indicate that a large part of the radioactive secretion probably leaves the cell after having been in only one cellular compartment. Although this compartment may be the endoplasmic reticulum, a considerable amount of radioactivity fluxes through the ground cytoplasm and the possibility cannot be excluded that some secretory components leave the cell directly from the ground cytoplasm. The data appear incompatible with the hypothesis that all the radioactivity seen in the extracellular matrix arrived there via a single pathway involving first the endoplasmic reticulum and then the Golgi vacuoles. It is not, however, incompatible with a hypothesis that a fraction of the radioactive product uses this pathway.

    Notizen: An electron microscope examination of the minute bristle organules in the Drosophila eye revealed an organisation characteristic of insect hair sensilla. They were derived from four concentrically arranged cells which were active at the mid-pupal stage in producing the bristle, socket and receptor structures. Two of the cells degenerated towards the end of pupation, the mature organule consisting of a bipolar sense cell and an accessory cell.Growth in length of the bristle was accompanied by a proliferation of longitudinally oriented microtubules which gradually disappeared after maximum growth had been achieved. The breakdown of microfibrillar aggregates, which were also present as transient structures in the developing bristle and showed some correspondence with the longitudinal ridges formed at the surface, may similarly be related to the establishment of cell shape by the deposition of the cuticle which occurred at the same time.

    Notizen: Forty-two unselected ovaries from adult mares were examined histologically, and with histochemical methods for mucins. A considerable part of the surface of the ovulation fossa was directly covered by columnar epithelium, with many ciliated cells. This epithelium, which was distributed mainly on the anterior side of the ovulation fossa, closely resembled the contiguous epithelium of the infundibulum of the oviduct, was frequently folded, and gave rise to short clefts projecting into the ovarian substance. The remainder of the ovulation fossa was covered by non-ciliated, low cuboidal or squamous epithelium, lacking folds or clefts.“Fossa cysts,” up to 6.5 mm in diameter, were observed in the ovarian tissue around the ovulation fossa in 27 (64%) of these ovaries. Both simple and branched, tubular and vesicular forms were present, and all were blind-ending. Their epithelial lining cells, which varied from simple squamous to columnar in type, were frequently ciliated. Many fossa cysts contained secretions histochemically similar to those of the columnar epithelium of the ovulation fossa and infundibulum. Both sialic acidcontaining and neutral mucins were present. It is suggested that these cysts were probably derived by ingrowth from the columnar epithelium of the ovulation fossa. This epithelium may be of müllerian duct origin.

    Notizen: Light microscopic sections of the adult opossum (Didelphis virginiana) spleen were observed to lack venous sinuses; this primitive mammalian spleen may be classified as non-sinusal in nature. In the spleen of the opossum, the capillary segments of the penicillar arteries lacked ellipsoid sheaths characteristic of certain mammalian spleens.Separating the lymphoid nodules from the surrounding red pulp was a distinct band of vascular tissue, the marginal zone. Arising from the central artery within the lymphoid nodule, vessels of capillary dimension were observed to terminate within the marginal zone and the area between lymphoid nodule and marginal zone. In addition to the vascular channels established by the terminal arterial vessels within the red pulp, the system of vessels within the marginal zone has been implicated as an important intermediate vascular channel within the spleen.

    Notizen: A total of 54 embryos of Chrysemys (Chelonia) and 29 embryos of Aristelliger (Lacertilia) were used in examining septation of the embryonic bulbus cordis. Division of this region of the heart includes a period of cushion or septal primordia formation and a period of physical partitioning. In both reptilian genera, the physical configuration of the early bulbus, the temporal sequence of appearance of the endocardial cushions, the number of major endocardial cushions, the primordia composing the two primary bulbar septa, and the mode of descent of the bulbar septa are strikingly similar. The two genera differ primarily in the pattern of the endocardial cushions and consequently the rotation of the two bulbar septa. In both the turtle and the lizard the aortico-pulmonary septum passes through an angle of about 120° in its descent toward the ventricle. In Aristelliger the aortic septum rotates through an angle of approximately 120°. By contrast, the same partition in Chrysemys spirals through an angle of about 90°. The lesser spiral of this septum in the turtle is interpreted as the result of a decrease in the rotation of distal endocardial ridge 4. The pattern of the two bulbar septa in the turtle appears to represent an advanced phylogenetic feature in terms of the evolution of the reptilian bulbus cordis.

    Notizen: Oogenesis and the relationships between oocytes and other ovarian tissues have been studied in Sypharochiton septentriones. The ovarian tissues were examined by electron microscopy and by histochemical methods.The sac-like ovary is dorsal, below the aorta, and opens to the exterior by two posterior oviducts. Ventrally, the ovarian epithelium is folded inwards to form a series of plates of tissue, which support the developing ova. Each ovum is attached to a tissue plate by a stalk, the plasma membrane of which is bathed by the blood in the tissue plate sinus. Dorsally, ciliated vessels from the aorta enter the ovary and open into blood sinuses in the top of the plates.After each germinal epithelial cell rounds up to become a primary oogonium, it undergoes four mitotic divisions to give rise to a cluster of 16 secondary oogonia. Of these, the outer ones become follicle cells and the inner ones become oocytes. As in other molluses, the increases in nuclear and nucleolar volume are relatively greatest towards the end of previtellogenesis, when chromosomal and nucleolar activity are most intense. This phase of activity is accompanied by a great increase in cytoplasmic basophilia. Subsequently this basophilia is decreased during vitellogenesis, when chromosomal and nucleolar activity diminish. Fluid filled interstices appear in the cytoplasm during early vitellogenesis. Protein yolk deposition is associated with these interstices, but the lipid yolk appears to arise de novo. The follicle cells do not appear to be directly involved in oocyte nutrition.At times during oogenesis, certain manifestations of polarity can be found in the oocyte. This polarity is based on an apical-basal axis and can be related to the nutritive source of the oocyte, namely the blood which bathes the plasma membrane of the oocyte in the stalk.Numerous granulated cells are present in the ovarian tissue plates and ventral epithelium as storage cells containing lysosomes, and they are capable of phagocytosis and micropinocytosis of extracellular material. A scheme is outlined whereby reserves in these cells may be incorporated into the oocyte cytoplasm. Lysosomal activity is responsible for autolysis of the cells as well as resorption of unspawned ova.

    Notizen: The postnatal development of the pelage and ventral gland of male Mongolian gerbils ranging from newborn to 86 days of age was studied. The development of the gerbil pelage follows a pattern similar to that observed for other rodents. The length of the dorsal and ventral skin juvenile hair cycle was found to be 26 to 28 days with a 15 to 18 day anagen and a ten to 11 day catagen and telogen. Hair follicles in the ventral gland began growth ten days later than those of the general pelage and secondary follicles budded from the sides of primary follicles. The ventral gland area differed from the general pelage in that it lacked a panniculus carnosus. The ventral gland is a complex of pilosebaceous glands which, in the adult, fill the entire hypodermis. The length and width of the pilosebaceous canals of the gland units are greater than those of the dorsum. The period of telogen of the hair follicles in the ventral gland is very short. The mid-ventral gland of the male gerbil appears to be a secondary sexual characteristic.

    Notizen: The ultrastructure of lymphatic capillaries in the tail fin of Rana catesbiana larvae was investigated. With the use of a colloidal marker particle (Biological Carbon) the extent that these delicate vessels ramify throughout the fin region was demonstrated. This opaque substance also serves as a marker particle for identification of lymphatics with some degree of certainty at both light and electron microscopic levels. The cytoplasm of the lymphatic endothelial cell is abruptly attenuated beyond the perinuclear region, reaching widths as thin as 300 Å. Lymphatic Anchoring filaments are present, but to a lesser degree than noted for other species studied. Other features of interest include an extensive Golgi complex and electron dense bodies that are surrounded by a smooth surfaced unit membrane. These bodies are somewhat heterogeneous in size (500 Å up to 0.5 μ in diameter) and density. Numerous exit channels are provided by the extensive supply of lymphatics throughout the tail fin region of amphibian larva thus allowing them to serve an important function during metamorphosis. It is suggested that these vessels also act as passageways through which lysed cellular and connective tissue components may be rapidly removed during the process of tail fin resorption.

    Notizen: The cuticle of Watersipora nigra is at first translucent, but it later becomes black and differentiates into two layers. It is composed, at least in part, of a protein-polysaccharide complex. Calcified parts are three-layered: (1) an outer, cuticular layer, (2) a calcium carbonate skeleton deposited on a matrix of acid mucopolysaccharide, and (3) a “skeletal membrane.” The relationships of these layers indicate that the skeleton is intracuticular. A layer of cuticular material, the “intercalary cuticle” is present in lateral walls, but not transverse walls; it may become calcified in some species. The cuticles of calcified and uncalcified parts of cheilostomes are not necessarily homologous.

    Notizen: Cell population and neuropile morphology of larval and adult brains of the monarch butterfly, Danaus plexippus plexippus, L., are compared. The larval brain is in continuous transition, the processes of adult brain development being underway from the earliest larval stages. It is characterized by a less diverse population of cells and more homogenous fiber areas than those of the adult. Neuroblasts, which divide to form the neurones of the adult brain, occur either in discrete proliferation centers or scattered among the larval ganglion cells. The larval brain contains, in addition to small homogeneous antennal centers and a distinct larval optic center, rapidly developing adult optic centers, corpora pedunculata, and protocerebral bridge. The larval brain lacks a central body. Major differences between larval and adult brains are clearly related to the increased dependence of the adult upon sensory input from the eyes and antennae.

    Notizen: Distomus variolosus from Roscoff, France, comprises two sorts, differing in their branchial and gonadal patterns. Their sexual cycle has been followed histologically and micro-anatomically. Gonads begin as clumps of lymphocytes that persist along germinal tracts. Cavitation of the clump, growth of the gonoduct, maturation of the gametes, and elaboration of accessory structures are described. Oocytes develop in a linear series in each ovary; only one or two reach maturity in each gonad. The released egg and subsequent tadpole may be held to the ovary by a “leash” formed of the partially everted outer follicle of the egg. Post-mature gonads deteriorate. Testes disrupt altogether; ovaries may persist as moribund loci of remnant germinal tissue. The sharp right-left hermaphroditism of the zooid appears to combine with a subtler anterior-posterior gradient of sexual determination.

    Notizen: In a hydrozoan jellyfish, the female gonad is differentiated from a specialized region of the epidermis near the manubrium. Changes in the oocytes during growth and vitellogenesis are described as observed with electron microscopic and cytochemical techniques. Three major types of yolk are formed; these include lipid, glycogen, and membrane-bound granules consisting of both protein and carbohydrate. The latter first appear evident within vesicular and cisternal elements of the numerous Golgi complexes. The orientation and structural variations noted between the endoplasmic reticulum and forming face of the Golgi complexes suggest that the protein component of the yolk granules may be transferred from the cisternae of the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi complex where it is joined to carbohydrate perhaps synthesized by the Golgi complexes. Stages in the release of the precursor yolk material sequestered in cisternal elements of the Golgi complexes are illustrated. The presence of coated and uncoated vesicles in the Golgi regions and their possible role in intracellular transport are described and discussed. The presence and possible method of morphogenesis of vesiculate yolk bodies are also described. What appear to represent invaginations of the oolemma extend into the ooplasm and display a special orientation with respect to lamellae of the rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum. Intraooplasmic synthesis appears to constitute the major pathway for protein-carbohydrate yolk deposition.

    Notizen: The dipnoan heart is only in part structurally developed to support a separated circulation in pulmonary and systemic circuits. In the present investigation biplane angiocardiography has been used to describe the extent of such a double circulation and the factors which may modify it in the African lungfish, Protopterus aethiopicus.Contrast injections in the pulmonary vein revealed a clear tendency for aerated blood returing from the lungs to be selectively dispatched to the anterior branchial arteries giving rise to the major systemic circulation. Contrast injections in the vena cava delineated the sinus venosus as a large receiving chamber for systemic venous blood. Contraction of the sinus venosus discharged blood into the right, posterior part of the partially divided atrial space. Contrast injection in the pulmonary vein showed that vessel to pass obliquely from right to left such that blood was emptied distinctly into the left side of the atrium. During contraction the atrial space tended to retain a residual volume in its anterior undivided part which minized mixing.Ventricular filling occurred through separate right and left atrio-ventricular connections. Right-left separation in most of the ventricle was maintained by the partial ventricular septum, the trabeculated, spongelike myocardium and the mode of inflow from the atria. Mixing in the anterior undivided portion of the ventricle during the ejection phase was slight due to a streamlined ejection pattern.The outflow through the bulbus cordis occurred in discrete streams which in part were structurally separated by well developed spiral folds. In the anterior bulbus segment the spiral folds are fused and make completely separate dorsal and ventral outflow tracts. The ventral bulbus channel provides blood to the three anterior branchial arteries. The second and third branchial arteries are large and represent direct shunts to the dorsal aorta. The fourth and fifth branchial arteries are gill bearing and receive blood form the dorsal bulbus channel. The most posterior epibranchial vessels give rise to the pulmonary arteries.

    Notizen: Sinistral ovariectomy in the Japanese quail resulted in some hypertrophy of the rudimentary right gonad in about 80% of the cases. The hypertrophied right gonads were composed of cords of epithelial origin, fat laden cells and a connective tissue stroma containing masses of lymphocytes. Neither cortical tissue nor germ cells were found in any of the gonads. In some cases regeneration of a testis-like tissue was seen on the site of removed left ovary. This, however, did not alter the effects of ovariectomy on rudimentary right gonad, accessory sex organs, plumage or sexual behavior. Neither Wolffian nor Müllerian ducts exhibited hormonal stimulation in poulards showing hypertrophy of right gonad with exception of the latter in two poulards. Early orchiectomy inhibited growth and differentiation of the cloacal gland. This organ revealed no noticeable stimulation in poulards showing hypertrophied right gonads. Castration produced no significant changes in plumage of males. Similarly, sinistral ovariectomy did not effect the first juvenile, but the second juvenile, adult winter and summar plumages changed to the male type. However, the plumage of some of these poulards began to revert to the female character as early as 10 to 12 weeks following ovariectomy. The behavior of capons and poulards revealed no conspicuous difference and neither showed any masculine behavior. The average weight of adult females was 20 to 30 gm above that of adult males whereas that of capons was above normal males and that of poulards below normal females. The average weight of capons was somewhat above that of poulards.

    Notizen: Lymphatic tissues of inbred lines of White Leghorn chickens and 20-day embryos (inbreeding coefficient exceeds 95%) were used in the experiments, e.g. line 6 was susceptible, line 7 was resistant, and line 15 I was intermediate in response to the virus. Enzyme reactions were studied in cryostat-cut sections of tissues and in tissue minces by colorimetric procedures. Numbers of isozymes and proteins of lymphatic tissues were resolved by disc gel electrophoresis.Colorimetric tests showed that intensities of lactate, malate, isocitrate and succinic dehydrogenase catalyzed reactions were higher in the bursae of 15 I 20-day embryos than they were in bursae of either line 6 or 7 embryos. Intensity of dehydrogenase reactions of the spleen (15 I embryos) exceeded that found in line 6 and 7 embryos. Intensity of diaphorase reactions in the spleen and thymus was fairly uniform in all lines of embryos. Intensity of DPN diaphorase reactions in the bursae of line 15 I embryos exceeds that found in either line 6 or 7 embryos. Intensity of enzyme reactions leveled off to become fairly uniform in lymphatic tissues of chickens 3-4 weeks post hatching with the exception that dehydrogenase reactions were less intense in the thymus of 15 I chickens.Photodensitometer scans of acrylamide gel columns showed that proteins of line 6 lymphatic tissues combined with less Amido black 10B than lymphatic proteins of either line 15 I or 7 embryos. There was fairly good agreement between concentrations of strong mobility (components 1-9) and weak mobility (components 10-16) in lymphatic tissues of all lines of embryos with the exception that strong mobility proteins were about twice as concentrated in line 15 I bursae. Variable numbers of lactate isozymes were found in the lymphatic tissues of 20-day embryos.

    Notizen: The morphology of the gonads and epididymides, and an analysis of selected scale characters of six hybrid males presumed to be the result of the natural mating of the all-female whiptail lizard species Cnemidophorus neomexicanus and the bisxual species C. inornatus are presented. The histological appearance of the gonads and epididymides reveals a seasonal cyclicity with respect to the production and storage of spermatogenic elements. On the basis of the limited sample, it is postulated that some abnormality may be present in gametogenesis of these hybrid males which could be related to their chromosomal number. The data on scale characters support the interpretation that these hybrids are intermediate with respect to the parental species.

    Notizen: In 85 frogs and 29 rats, the entire gastrocnemius muscle was removed. After removal of as much connective tissue as possible, about two-thirds of the remaining muscle was finely minced with a scissors. These minced fragments were orthotopically re-implanted, and the overlying skin was sutured. As the implanted muscle fragments degenerate, new muscle fibers appears in the regenerate. The proportion of connective tissue to muscle is usually greater than normal especially in the frog. Grossly, normal relationships are established with the cut ends of the Achilles and proximal tendons, as well as with the blood vessels and nerves. The total diameter of the regenerated muscle is almost always less than half of that seen in normal muscles. Regeneration of muscle is much more extensive in the rat than in the frog, and it occurs almost twice as rapidly. The histology of the regenerative process is described for both the frog and the rat.

    Notizen: Presumptive myoblasts from the regenerating tail of the lizard plated at clonal density undergo extensive growth giving rise to large colonies. After several days in culture at 31°C some of the cells begin to round up and assume a spherical morphology. The number of rounded up cells increases over the next few days until 50 to 75% of the cells are rounded up. If the cultures are switched to a permissive medium, fusion and differentiation occur. If they are left in a nonpermissive medium fusion does not occur. Instead, the cells stretch out on the substrate and become long and attenuated or broad and strap-like. However, differentiation may continue in some of the cells giving mononucleate cells with cross striations. Autoradiographic studies indicate that the rounded up cells represent a post-synthesis, prefusion population of cells.

    Notizen: The thoracic skeleton and musculature of the adult bittacid mecopteron Bittacus strigosus Hagen is described. In its musculature, Bittacus shows only moderate differences from two panorpids (Neopanorpa, Panorpa) that have been studied by Maki ('38) and by Hasken ('39), respectively. Not only are these three genera much alike in their musculature generally, but in all of them, and in Boreus (Boreidae) too, the mesothorax is extremely similar to the metathorax. Functional emphasis (for flight) on either of the two pterothoracic segments has not appeared among neuropteroid insects at the metopteran evolutionary level.Although the “snowfleas” of the genus Boreus possess striking alterations of pterothoracic structure in comparison with other mecopterons (Füller, '54, '55), these are related to their unusual activities and have not, to any great extent, affected the two pterothoracic segments differentially.In terms of thoracic specialization, the overall mecopteran pattern represents a stage somewhat advanced beyond the primitive conditions exemplified by the Megaloptera and certain coleopterous larvae, but one that is in general less highly developed than is charatceristic of such neuropteroid orders as the Siphonaptera, Diptera, Trichoptera, and Lepidoptera.

    Notizen: The comparative morphology of the gonads and fat bodies of members of 17 genera and 46 species of caecilians (Amphibia: Gymnophiona) is described and analyzed. Comparison is made with the morphology of salamanders and frogs in order to elucidate evolutionary trends and relationships within the order Gymnophiona and within the class Amphibia. The structure of the testis lobes and transverse and longitudinal ducts is described based on gross dissection and histological investigation. The pattern of spermatogenesis and interstitial tissue changes are described and compared with those of other amphibians. A trend toward fusion of testis lobes is analyzed. The characteristics of the seasonal reproductive cycle of male Gymnopis m. proxima are described, and evidence for cyclic reproductive activity in other forms is presented. The morphology of the ovaries and ova is described. Size of ovary and size and number of ova is dependent on the state of maturation of the ova. Some evidence for seasonal ovum production and breeding is presented. Fat body morphology is found to be correlated with size, nutrition, and gonad condition, as in other amphibians.

    Notizen: The distribution of carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids was studied in the cochleae of kangaroo rat, gerbil, and guinea pig using both fixed paraffin sections and fresh-frozen cryostat sections. Enzyme distribution in the cochleae of the three speices was studied with both EDTA-decalcified and undecalcified fresh-frozen cryostat sections.Although the cochleae of the three species are morphologically different, their distributions of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids are similar. The zona pectinata of the basilar membrane - which is hypertrophied in the kangaroo rat and gerbil but normal in the guinea pig - stains the same in all three species. The unique, flaskshaped Hensen cells of the kangaroo rat contain more protein than do the normal Hensen cells of the gerbil and guinea pig. At least some of the protein in the kangaroo rat Hensen cells is in the form of carboxylic esterases which are not affected by 10-4 M eserine, but are inhibited by 10-2 M eserine and 10-6 M E600. More than one population of carboxylic esterases is indicated by this reaction to inhibitors and by the results of enzyme distribution tests which used different substrates. A high concentration of malate dehydrogenase in the kangaroo rat Hensen cells may be related to the synthesis of carboxylic esterases. The possible role of these esterases in cochlear functioning is discussed.

    Notizen: This report presents light microscopic descriptions of normal histology, including innervation, of the lymph glands and jugular bodies, of larval and adult Rana catesbeiana. A brief description of two other adult organs, the propericardial and procoracoid bodies, is also included. The parenchyma was studied by employing the May-Grunwald-Giemsa staining technique for better cytoplasmic differentiation; the Periodic Acid-Schiff technique and hematoxylin and eosin yielded clearer nuclear and cytoplasmic delineations. The intercellular portion of the stroma was studied from sections stained with Masson's trichrome, Weigert's elastic stain, Periodic Acid-Schiff and Wilder's reticulum stain. Demonstration of phagocytes was facilitated by intraperitoneal India ink injections followed by the above staining procedures. Innerrvation was observed in serial sections of silver impregnated whole organs as well as in the other serial sections. These organs are lymphocytopoietic and to a certain extent granulopoietic; they also serve, like the spleen, as graveyards for dead cells and most probably play a role in immunity especially in the synthesis of antibodies as indicated by the presence of plasma cells, macrophages and lymphocytes.

    Notizen: The structure and cell types of the closely similar glands of Calamoichthys and Polypterus are described and a general comparison made with the teleost pituitary. The Polypterine gland shows some unsual features in the anatomical disposition of its parts and in the arrangement of its neurosecetory and vascular supply and an explanation of these differences is suggested, based on relative growth changes in later development, in order to include these glands in the evolutionary pattern of the actinopterygian pituitary.

    Notizen: About 10,000 sense organs are present on one antenna of a female mantis, Tenodera angustipennis, and nearly 40,000 on that of a male. These are of four kinds: (1) thick-walled pegs, (2) short thin-walled pegs, (3) medium length thin-walled pegs and (4) long thin-walled pegs. All have the structural characteristics of chemoreceptors. The dendrites of the sensory neurons of the thick-walled pegs are exposed to the air in an opening at its distal end and those of the thin-walled pegs terminate at many pores in the surface. The significance of the larger number of sense organs possessed by the male is discussed. No important differences were found between the antenna of Tenodera angustipennis and those of T. aridifolia and T. australasiae.

    Notizen: Light and electron microscopical studies allow a descriptive account to be given of the preadult development of the ovary of Drosophila melanogaster. The lineage of the cell groups which contribute to the tissues of the adult ovary has been determined. The earliest morphologically detectable event in the differeentiation of each ovariole is the formation during the larval period of its terminal filament. Oogonia play no role in the induction of terminal filaments. The developmental events which transform a spherical mass of ovarian cells into a collection of multicellular cylinders is described. The importance in morphogenesis of acellular membranes secreted at the interface separting cells of different prospective significances is stressed. Such membranes may serve to regulate the future migration of cell populations or as sites of attachment for monolayers of cells which later fuse to form multinucleated muscle sheaths. The transformation of oogonia to cystoblasts coincides with and presumably depends upon the same hormonal stimulus which causes metamorphosis. The first oocytes to undergo crossing over do so between 24 and 36 hours after puparium formation.

    Notizen: A morphological study of the presoma of adult Corynosoma hamanni (Linstow, 1892) was undertaken in an effort to clarify some problems encountered during analysis of a large collection of juveniles of this species assembled from fishes of McMurdo Sound. This study is based on approximately 600 adult specimens recovered from four Weddel seals, Leptonychotes weddelli, collected at McMurdo Sound.Morphologically the proboscis armature is more varied than previously reported and consists of 18 to 23 longitudinal rows each with 11 to 15 hooks of two distinct types. At the apex of the proboscis is an undivided, bi-nucleated apical organ unlike that described for species of Neoechinorhynchus. In the basal third of the proboscis is a thin-walled vesicle which extends into the anterior quarter of the proboscis receptacle. The more posterior of two external folds on the presoma is a cuticular invagination permitting recognition of the neck-trunk border of C. hamanni. Lemnisci originate between the two folds and extend into the trunk cavity between the body wall and extensive neck retractor muscles. Contrary to Linstow's original description, each lemniscus is a single structure.Several limitations in material prevent speculation at this time about the limits of intraspecific variation in C. hamanni.

    Notizen: The formation of cortical alveoli and yolk has been investigated in the pipe-fish, Syngnathus fuscus, and the killifish, Fundulus heteroclitus by techniques of light and electron microscopy. In addition to cortical alveoli and yolk components the ooplasm contains many mitochondria, numerous Golgi complexes, copious quantities of the endoplasmic reticulum of the rough variety, ribosomes and particulate glycogen. While the formation of cortical alveoli and yolk may proceed simultaneously, the cortical alveoli are the first to develop. Staining procedures indicate that cortical alveoli, like some of the yolk bodies contain a polysaccharide component and protein. It is suggested that the protein portion is made by the endoplasmic reticulum and is subsequently transferred to the Golgi complex via vesicles. Within the saccules of the Golgi complex the polysaccharide component is fabricated after which time the Golgi produce vesicles containing the products of either the cortical alveoli or yolk bodies.The precursors used in the production of the yolk are produced by the oocyte (endogenous) and by an organ other than the ovary (exogenous). The precursors made exogenously become associated with the morphologically and physiologically specialized oolemma and are subsequently internalized by the process of micropinocytosis.

    Notizen: In a variety of amphibians examined the stratum corneum was one cell in depth, although in Xenopus it was up to three cells deep. The flattened horny cells were closely fused together along their lateral membranes to form a continuous sheet. Disulphide bonds of keratin were most concentrated in the peripheral cytoplasm, but the interiors of the cornified cells were sufficiently well keratinized to prevent more than slight enzymatic cytolysis of the normal cell components. Characteristically large, weakly stainable, non-shrunken nuclear remnants were found in the salamander and frog horny layers, but the clawed toad had small pyknotic (parakeratotic) nuclei. The mature amphibian keratinocytes contained free fats, bound phospholipids, calcium and sulphydryl groups, together with acid phosphatase and non-specific esterase. Cornification appears to begin by a process of separate individual cell keratinization and lateral membranes of neighbouring cells only later become fused together. This differs from the process in higher vertebrates in which the cells undergoing keratinization form a uniform transitional layer in the epidermis. In the amphibian epidermis neighbouring cells occur in different stages of keratinization.

    Notizen: The oocyte-nurse cell complex of the polychaetous annelid, Diopatra cuprea, has been explored by various methods of light microscopy and by the technique of electron microscopy. Early in its development the complex appears as a string of cells floating within the coelomic cavity. As this string of cells develops, the volume of one cell (approximately the middle one) increases greatly; while that of the remaining cells, referred to as nurse cells, increase slightly. Due to this differential growth, the two opposing strands of nurse cells are displaced to one side of the oocyte.Nurse cells are joined to one another by cytoplasmic bridges. Cytoplasmic bridges also exist between the strands of nurse cells and the oocyte. The presence of numerous ribosomes within the bridges between the oocyte and nurse cells encourages us to suggest that this organelle may be transferred to the oocyte via this route. The transported ribosomes may be used by the maturing oocyte, or they may be stored by the egg to be utilized during embryogenesis. Moreover, we believe that the nurse cells are not involved in the production of the protein-carbohydrate yolk bodies for we think that these are elaborated by the endoplasmic reticulum in collaboration with certain Golgi complexes of the oocyte.

    Notizen: A series of nine features of the shoulder girdle, chosen as having functional significance in relation to the movements of the shoulder in arboreal locomotion, have been studied in 1188 specimens of 194 genera of mammals. The features were defined metrically and examined by means of a multivariate statistical technique: viz. canonical analysis. The study has shown that those mammals which are nonarboreal differ considerably among themselves and form the arboreal forms. But the myriad shapes of the shoulder girdle in a wide range of mammals (e.g. some marsupials, edentates, rodents, carnivores and primates) which climb or forage in trees, can be summarized mathematically by a very small number of similar canonical variates. This information correlates well with that of a previous series of studies carried out on the primates alone.The biological information that was postulated as being reflected by the individual canonical variates for the primates is also apparent for the arboreal mammals. The different variates separate the forms in ways which are consonant with what is known about the function of the shoulder in locomotion. Aspects of the shape of the shoulder defined by the analysis appear to be discernible from an examination of the contribution of the original variables to each individual canonical variate. This seems to confirm that the shape of the shoulder girdle within a very wide range of mammals is limited by a very small number of underlying factors of biological significance.One interpretation of the results suggests that the genetic model of the mammalian shoulder may have been sufficiently fixed at an early stage in the evolution of the class as to place considerable constraints upon the subsequent evolution of the shoulder in the different Orders.

    Notizen: Hypophysectomized adult newts exhibited 98% survival and limb regeneration at 23 days post-hypophysectomy when injected intraperitoneally every other day with prolactin (0.015 U/newt) and kept continuously in aquaria with 1 × 10-7 concentration of thyroxine. Thyroxine alone was no more effective than saline injections.Prolactin (1.2 U/newt every other day) alone increased survival and limb regeneration, but less effectively than did the prolactin-thyroxine combination.

    Notizen: Thin semi-serial ground sections of coronal dentin were examined radiographically. The bulk of the coronal dentin was characterized by the majority of the tubules having a distinct peritubular zone. With the exception of the tubules running from the tip of the cusp to the pulp cornu, the bulk of peritubular matrix forming the walls of the tubules was disposed eccentrically. The matrix was thicker on the cervical sides of the tubule than it was on the incisal sides. In a relatively narrow layer of the coronal dentin between the bulk of the dentin and the predentindentin border area the thickness of the peritubular matrix varied considerably. It was extremely narrow or absent in some tubules and reached its greatest thickness in others. The tubules in the predentin border area showed little or no evidence of peritubular matrix. The area of dentin beneath the central developmental groove differed somewhat from the bulk of the dentin. Many of the tubules at all levels of this area showed little radiographic evidence of peritubular matrix. Obliterated tubules were seen in some of the sections taken immediately above the predentin-dentin border area in the region of the pulp cornu and were always seen at the junction of the mantle dentin and the circumpulpal dentin beneath the central developmental groove.

    Notizen: Microscopic studies of human adrenal glands from 58 autopsy specimens, ranging in age from one month gestation to 69 years, revealed a pertinent developmental pattern in the establishment of definitive zonation. This pattern was established using the following criteria: (1) relationship of age to the developing zones; (2) times of formation of definitive zonation; and (3) the morphological determination of developmental patterns based on staining characteristics.Using these criteria, development was divided into five phases: (1) condensation of coelomic epithelium; (2) secondary proliferation of coelomic epithelium; (3) finding of PAS-positive material within the fetal cortex; (4) decline and disappearance of the fetal cortex; and (5) establishment and stabilization of the definitive zonular patterns.Significant features occurring in this development were: (1) the origin of both permanent and fetal cortex from proliferation of coelomic epithelium; (2) the appearance of PAS-positive granules surrounding a homogenous mass in the fetal cortex and the zona reticularis during maturation and organization; and (3) the gradual establishment of definitive zones by proliferation of the permanent cortex, maturation of the fetal cortex, and growth of the medulla; with the adult structure of the adrenal gland achieved by the eleventh to fifteenth year without any apparent major involution or hemorrhage.

    Notizen: The mesothoracic leg discs of the blowfly, Sarcophaga bullata (Parker) were studied by electron microscopy during the third larval instar. As the peripodial membrane and separation form, the cells of the disc become elongated and perpendicularly oriented toward the separation. The cellular organelles do not undergo significant changes until the late third instar. At this time, there is a significant increase in the amount of granular endoplasmic reticulum and in the number of inclusions, particularly in those cells located more deeply in the disc. Nucleolar enlargement and an increase in the number of mitochondria are also observed at this time.The cells at the border of the disc form a columnar epithelium whose surface develops microvilli-like projections. These projections. These projections reach their maximum development towards the end of third instar.It is suggested that some of the observed changes may represent a phenotypic expression of secretion of cuticular material.

    Notizen: Neurosecretory activity and fine structure of the supraesophageal and optic ganglia of Daphnia schødleri Sars were studied. The relative amount of paraldehyde fuchsin stainable material present was determined at “daylight” and at one and three hours following for animals maintained under photoperiods of 7.5, 10.5, 13.5, and 16.5 hours. More material was found after one hour in both ganglia and there was a tendency for more in the optic ganglion under 7.5- and 10.5-hour photoperiods.Sections made at two levels in the supraesophageal ganglion and one level in the optic ganglion were examined with an electron microscope. Posterior and anterior parts of the supraesophageal ganglion contain apparent nerve processes at the edge of the ganglion, parallel to the anterior-posterior axis; these have large granules. Neurons in both areas contain patches of presumed polysaccharide granules. In the posterior region are a dorsolateral and a ventrolateral glandular cell, presumably these occur on both sides of the brain. They have very well-developed endoplasmic reticulum and some large granules. The dorsal cell is usually at the tip of a glial attenuation.Concentric lamellar systems are located in dilated nerve processes of the first optic ganglion neuropile. Large whorls (about 3.5 μ) are composed of concentric lamellae. When lamellae do not form complete rings, they end in loops or in dilated tubules that are sometimes constricted as vesicles. Small whorls (1.5 μ) typically have lamellae joined into two or three thick layers. Mitochondria are frequently associated with the whorls. It is proposed that the whorls are active in synthesis, possibly neurohumor production.

    Notizen: In the spiroboloid millipeds the male gonopods develop from rudiments of both pairs of legs of the seventh body segment. They are first evident as “lumps” on the sternum of the seventh segment following the molt to instar 5; they replace the functional walking legs of the seventh segment of earlier instars. These “lumps” go through progressive morphological changes in each instar until they attain the adult form. It is evident that in the spirobolid millipeds the gonopods do not develop as a gradual modification of functional walking legs; rather they pass through a progressive growth and differentiation of their own.

    Notizen: A total of 1125 normal chick embryos, representing 25 each of the 45 stages of Hamburger and Hamilton, were removed, fixed in Bouin's solution, stored in 70% ethanol and weighed with a semi-micro analytical balance. Entire blastoderms of stages 1-8 were weighed, whereas only embryos-proper were weighed in stages 9-45. As a consequence, results constituted two groups, each of which showed a geometric rate of growth marked only by minor deviations which were related to specific events of normal growth and development.

    Notizen: Estimates of the number of ganglionic neurons of superior cervical sympathetic ganglia and the number of preganglionic axons in the trunks just caudal to these ganglia were obtained from a sample of primates that included: man, chimpanzee, baboon, stump-tailed macaque, rhesus monkey, and squirrel monkey. The number of ganglionic neurons ranged from 63,625 in a squirrel monkey ganglion to 1,041,652 neurons in a human ganglion. Estimates of the number of preganglionic fibers varied between 2,285 in a cervical sympathetic trunk of a squirrel monkey and 12,008 in a human specimen. The resulting ratios of preganglionic fibers to ganglionic neurons ranged from 1:28 in a squirrel monkey ganglion to 1:196 in a human ganglion.The data reported in this study reveal considerable variation in the ratio of pre- to post-ganglionic neurons, and as was noted in regard to the number of cells in the ganglion, the ratios of ganglionic to preganglionic neurons appear to increase as a function of body size. In contrast, the number of preganglionic fibers does not increase as strikingly with body size, but varies greatly in the same species. The resulting ratio between the two orders of neurons is, therefore, less predictable than the number of ganglionic neurons in any given ganglion.

    Notizen: The volumes of a sample of primate superior cervical sympathetic ganglia were measured and related to body weight and to the number of ganglionic neurons. Estimates of volumes of the ganglia varied between 1.956 mm3 in squirrel monkey and 173.530 mm3 in a human specimen. Average cell densities for the ganglia ranged from 4,455 cells/mm3 in a human ganglion to 32,528 cells/mm3 in a squirrel monkey ganglion. Mean cell territories varied from 0.0000307 mm3 in a squirrel monkey ganglion to 0.0002245 mm3 in a human ganglion.Analysis of the data reveals striking trends of correlation between body size, volume of ganglia, and average cell territories. Since similar correlations have been described for other types of neuronal cell aggregates, it is suggested that for any given nucleus, ganglion or cortical area, the neuronal packing density varies as a function of body size.

    Notizen: Electron microscope observations on the differentiating Drosophila eye show an extensive proliferation of parallel arrays of microtubules at periods preceding, or coinciding with, alterations in cellular morphology. In the retinular cells they are aligned in the direction of elongation and close to the developing rhabdomeres, forming a cylinder around the central ommatidial axis. At a later stage, in the cone cells, they are aligned in the direction of cellular contraction. Thus as in other developing systems microtubules appear to be directly involved in the morphogenesis of the Drosophila eye. In the retinular cells they gradually disappear during elongation, whereas they persist in the cone cells. The pigment cells contain few of these structures. The distribution of two types of specialised cell attachments, adhering zones and septate desmosomes is discussed in relation to intercellular morphogenesis and communication. The rhabdomeres originate from infoldings of the plasma membrane which later grow out into typical microvilli. Unusul cytoplasmic granules are described in the pigment cells of early pupae.

    Notizen: The structure of the cellular cyst which encapsulates the parasitic copepod, Scolecodes huntsmani, in the subendostylar blood vessel of the ascidian, Styela gibbsii, is described from light and electron microscopic studies.The cells comprising the cyst are contributed by the ascidian. The cells are columnar, contain large central reservoirs of glycogen and lipid, and have a conspicuous Golgi apparatus, many small cisternae of smooth endoplasmic reticulum and peripheral mitochondria. The cells are held together by complex basal interdigitations and a short apical zonula occludens. Long cilia emerge in circular clusters from the cell apices and beat in the lumen of the cyst. As atypical of a columnar epithelial layer, the nuclei are staggered in position in the cells and there is no basal lamina. One end of the cyst is blind, but the other end, which may be either anterior or posterior with respect to the longitudinal axis of the host, narrows to a profusely ciliated duct which opens through the wall of the blood vessel to the atrium of the ascidian by a ciliated funnel. The effective beat of the cilia of the duct and the funnel is outward toward the atrium.The first nauplii of the copepod emerge from the incubatory pouch of the adult and pass to the exterior sea water through the cyst funnel and the atrium and atrial siphon of the ascidian. As in other notodelphyid copepods, the life cycle of this incarcerated form also involves free-living naupliar stages followed by two free-living copepodid stages. The provision of an egress for the first nauplii is, therefore, important to the survival of the species.The adult females of Scolecodes, which range in length from 2 to 14.6 mm, are sluggish when removed from the cyst and fail to survive in sea water for more than 24 hours. The males, which have only been obtained when parasitic fifth copepodids molt in culture, are much smaller, averaging 0.8 mm, and are very active. Since one dead male has been found inside the cyst of an adult female and females are often found with attached spermatophores, it is suggested that the funnel of the cyst may also serve as an entrance for the males.Evidence is presented for the formation of the cyst as an accumulation of totipotent lymphocytes around the copepod. Cysts of parasitic developmental stages (third through fifth copepodids) are also described. All of these cysts and those of immature adult females lack funnels to the atrium. The funnel of the cyst of mature females is formed, in part, by modified cells of the wall of the blood vessel, but is induced after the major portion of the cellular cyst has been formed.Cells in the general circulation of the ascidian and those inside the lumen of the cyst are compared. The cells in the lumen of the mature cyst do not arise by diapedesis of blood cells from the subendostylar blood vessel, but by conversion and migration of cells composing the cyst proper. These cells have been found in the guts of the copepods and they may serve as a nutritive source.The ascidian appears not to be harmed by the association, but the copepod gains in many ways.

    Notizen: Autoradiographic studies combined with digestion tests of incorporated 3H-uridine showed that the peripheral nerve of Triturus contains ribonucleic acid. Localization studies revealed the presence of RNA in the axon, in the myelin and Schwann sheath, and in the Schwann cell body. Similar experiments on nerve separated by transection from its neuronal cell bodies yielded the same results. They showed that RNA of the nerve can be synthesized without the intervention of the neuronal cell body. The results strongly suggest that the radioactive substance, precursor or RNA, is transported inward from the Schwann cell to be deposited in the myelin sheath and axon. The route of passage and the possible sites of origin of the RNA in the nerve are discussed. A significant role is suggested for the Schmidt-Lantermann cleft because of its relations with the adaxonal layer of Schwann cytoplasm and with the myelin leaflets.

    Notizen: The respiratory organs of Amphipnous cuchia comprise a pair of aicsacs, vestigial gill filaments borne on second gill arch and vascular folds of the third gill arch. The volume of each air-sac, its surface area and its reltionship with the body weight of the fish have been determined. The air-sac is lined by a respiratory mucosa which is composed of vascular and non-vascular areas. Each vascular area, called here the ‘respiratory islet,’ studded with hundreds of vascular rosettes, which are formed of collagenous material and supported by endothelial cells. Pilaster cells are absent. The ‘islets’ are covered over by a single layer of squamous type of epithelial cells.The non-vascular areas (lanes') are the stratified part of the respiratory epithelium and contain a large number of mucous glands which secrete mainly acid mucopolysaccharides.The vascularisation of the gills have been studied by India ink injection methods. The secondary gill lamellae are absent, their place being taken up by coiled vascular loops.A quantitative estimation of haemoglobin in blood of ‘cuchia’ and other air- and water-breathing fishes have been made by colorimetric method and the results have been discussed in relation to their habit and habitats. The cranial muscles which are involved in respiration of ‘cuchia’ and the mechanics of muscle action in breathing have been described.

    Notizen: The sequence of events in posterior regeneration of the polychaete, Nephtys, has been examined in histological preparations from the fifth day to the end of the third week after amputation, that is from the time when wound healing is complete until several new segments are differentiated. The pygidium forms and begins to differentiate prior to segmentation. The first indication of each new segment is the appearance of a large pair of segmental blood vessels which arise from the vascular complex in the gut wall. Associated with these are fibroblasts, the anlagen of the new septum. Epidermal derivatives develop subsequently, appearing first ventrolaterally, close to the regenerating nerve cord. The mitotic rate appears to be highest prior to the period of maximum segment formation. Visible cell differentation follows, and subsequent growth of segments is primarily by cell enlargement. It appears likely that the blood-vascular system associated with the gut and the regenerating nerve cord, both of which are disproportionately large in the regenerate, are important for the initiation of new segments.

    Notizen: Adaptive explanations for the temporal fenestration in reptiles are briefly reviewed. With few possible exceptions, fenestrate appeared first in the reptiles, and have seemingly evolved independently in several different phyletic lines.The several explanations for fenestration offered by previous authors include speculations that open spaces in the skull permitted bulging of the jaw-closing muscles, and that fenestrae formed in areas of reduced stress where the presence of bone would be functionally useless. The first of these does not readily apply to initial evolutionary stages; the second is more satisfactory.Certain features of muscular attachments to bones are dealt with, and their implications applied to the fenestration problem to add another possible explanation (which need not contradict previously published suggestions).Considerations of cranial strength in tetrapod skulls led to speculations on the lack of fenestration in temnospondyls, anthracosaurs, microsaurs and cotylosaurs.Emargination of the skull roof in turtles is also discussed.

    Notizen: The down feather of the chick embryo has been examined by electron microscopy during three distinct stages of its early development; the presumptive stage, represented by dorsal skin of an area from which the feather organ will arise; the thickening stage, during which areas of the basal epidermis form spurs projecting into the mesenchyme, and the latter condenses under a thickened area of the epidermis; the elevation stage, at which time the basal epidermis flattens, the entire epidermis increases in thickness, and the underlying mesenchyme becomes more compact.As development proceeds the rough endoplasmic reticulum of the epidermal cells dilates, but during the elevation stage begins to flatten, and Golgi is observed with increasing frequency. The mitochondria do not appear to differ except for those in the periderm during the presumptive stage, in which case they reveal a vacant matrix and irregular cristae.Evidence is presented for actual contact between basal epidermal spurs and filopodia of cells within the mesenchyme, some of which contain numerous vesicles. The basal epidermal spurs are also seen in intimate association with collagen and anchor filaments and a network of reticulin.Evidence is also presented for the presence of neuronal elements within the mesenchyme during the thickening stage. Cross sections of cell processes within the condensations of the mesenchyme resemble unmyelinated nerve fibers, and cross sections of filopodia similar to arborizing axons abound at and within the basal lamina of both the thickening and elevation stages. Further support for the presence of nerve fibers within the mesenchyme comes from positive staining results with Bodian's and Ungewitter's methods.This comparative study of three stages of early development of the feather organ serves as a basis for more detailed investigations of each stage.

    Beschreibung / Inhaltsverzeichnis: Zusammenfassung Die Stimulierung der Insulinsekretion durch Monosaccharide und Hormone wurde mit der Technik der Inkubation von isolierten Pankreasstückchen untersucht. Der Insulingehalt der Inkubationsmedien und der Pankreasgewebe wurde mit der biologischen (Oxydation von14C-Glucose durch das epidydemale Fettgewebe der Ratte) und der radioimmunologischen Bestimmungsmethode mit Trennung des freien und gebundenen Insulins durch Amberlite ermittelt. Das Kaninchenpankreas reagierte auf Glucose, Fructose, Ribose, Xylose, STH und Sekretin mit gleichbleibender Insulinausschüttung, nicht dagegen auf Galaktose, D- und L-Arabinose und ACTH. Die Gewebe anderer Säugetiere (Hund und Kalb, nicht aber Ratten) und einer Amphibienart (Grasfrosch) zeigten eine übereinstimmende Insulinfreisetzung nach Gabe von Glucose, wobei die Säugetiere etwa 1%, das Amphibium etwa 10% des Insulingehalts abgaben. Das Froschpankreas wies in seiner Reaktion eine jahreszeitliche Abhängigkeit auf, indem es im Winter nicht, im Sommer am stärksten auf die Stimulationsreize ansprach.
    Notizen: Summary The stimulation of insulin-secretion by monosaccharides and hormones was studied with the technique of incubation of isolated pieces of pancreas. The insulin content of the incubation medium and of the pancreatic tissue was measured using both biological (oxidation of 14-C-glucose by epidydimal fat tissue of rats) and radio-immunological methods (separation of free and bound insulin with amberlite). The rabbit pancreas was stimulated by glucose, fructose, ribose, xylose (with constant insulin release), STH, and secretin, but not by galactose,d- andl-arabinose, and ACTH. The pancreatic tissue of other mammals (dog and calf, not rats) and one amphibian species (gras frog) showed the same insulin release after glucose which was 1% by mammals and 10% by amphibian of the insulin content of the tissue. The reaction of the frog pancreas depended upon the time of the year. In summer it reacted strongly to stimulants but in the winter it did not.

    Notizen: The testes, seminal vesicles and coagulating glands of hamsters subjected to bilateral optic enucleation (blinding) involuted within 6-8 weeks. During the first several weeks after blinding there was relatively little change in the weights of the reproductive organs, however, between 4-6 weeks the weights of these organs declined precipitously. Finally, the testes and accessory sex organs of 8-week blinded hamsters were about one-tenth and one-third their normal size, respectively. The atrophic testes exhibited a complete loss of spermatogensis and an apparent diminished secretion of androgens since the seminal vesicles and coagulating glands also regressed significantly. Despite the involution, the testes showed a high degree of deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis as evidenced by the large number of spermatogenic cells which took up tritiated thymidine. These findings indicate that the testes retained a certain level of regenerative capacity even in the presence of advanced tubular damage.If hamsters blinded for 9 weeks, had either their pineal gland or superior cervical ganglia removed, the involuted testes and accessory organs regenerated and returned to the normal size, and presumed function, within approximately 8 weeks. Regenerated testes were histologically indistinguishable from those of normal animals. Eyeless hamsters killed after 17 weeks still possessed involuted reproductive organs.

    Notizen: Organ and tissue phagocytosis of intravenously injected cobaltic oxide was studied quantitatively over a wide range of dose levels by means of radioassay of Co260O3 in rats.There is a single linear relationship between the amount of particulate administered and the amount recovered from liver, spleen, and lung combined. The same is true for the uptake by the liver alone. However, the spleen and lung each has two linear relationships. For the spleen the two different linear trends are related to the dose administered, while for the lung the determining parameter is the weight and (or) age of the animal. Notwithstanding these different linear trends, the uptake by spleen and lung is interdependent.Although the liver is the main phagocytic organ, per unit weight the phagocytic uptake of the spleen exceeds that of the liver at amounts of cobaltic oxide larger than 40 mg. The reverse is true for amounts less than or equal to 40 mg. The phagocytic uptake by other components of the RES was not sufficient for reliable quantitative estimation.

    Notizen: The possibility that the incidence of polyovular follicles and multinucleate ova may depend upon hormonal balance, in the hamster, has been investigated with respect to circulating estrogens. Samples were drawn at weekly intervals from the third through the seventh week of age. An inverse correlation was found to exist. Total blood estrogen decreased from day 21 to day 35, then increased through day 49. Polyovular follicles are most numerous at day 35 while multinucleate ova are most numerous on day 42. Non-polar estrogen decreased from day 21, achieving a low 28 day level which was maintained throughout the study period. More polar estrogens dropped to the thirty-fifth day and rose by the forty-ninth day. The limiting factor in the decrease of more active polar estrogens may be lack of conversion of non-polar to polar estrogens or a tendency toward rapid degradation and loss of polar estrogens. The role of the fluctuating estrogen titres in the development of ovarian abnormalities is discussed.

    Notizen: Electron micrographs of vagus and sciatic nerve fibers of different size from adult male mice were examined by planimetry to determine the distribution of axoplasm, Schwann cell cytoplasm and mitochondrial density. The findings revealed that the ratio of axoplasm to Schwann cell cytoplasm in normal mature fibers increased with fiber size. The increase appeared curvilinear from 61% axoplasm in nonmyelinated fibers to 90% in the thickest myelinated fibers. Schwann cell cytoplasm extended along the sheaths in longitudinal and interconnected strands. The number of strands varied between 2 and 5, depending on fiber size. An analysis of mitochondrial density in axoplasm and Schwann cell cytoplasm of nonmyelinated and myelinated fibers revealed a greater concentration of mitochondria in the Schwann cells with increasing fiber size. The mean ratio of mitochondrial density between axoplasm and Schwann cell cytoplasm was 1:0.24 for nonmyelinated fibers, 1:2.54 for fibers with less than 30 lamellae and 1:5.21 for fibers with 30 or more lamellae. The distribution of mitochondria observed in electron micrographs was confirmed histochemically by localization of NAD-diaphorase activity.

    Notizen: Fetal membranes grafted to the omentum in mice do not degenerate at a time corresponding to the normal termination of the donor pregnancy, as would be expected if a “biological clock” were matching their lifespan with that of the embryo and placenta. Neither, in our experience, did such grafted membranes form a variety of highly differentiated secondary tissues, as some authors have suggested. Rather, the fate of the various components of the membrane seemed different for each cell type. In allogeneic hosts a brisk cellular reaction occurred and the membranes were destroyed. In isogeneic hosts, the grafts was vascularized and healthy membrane-derived structures were still present after 33 days of grafting (48 days conceptual age). Mesothelial cells remained applied to well-preserved basement membrane, whereas visceral endoderm cells appeared to degenerate or else detach themselves and become free rounded cells with foamy cytoplasm, sometimes multinucleated. Mesodermal cells accompanying the blood vessels of the membrane probably accounted for the connective tissue stroma seen in these grafts. The normal failure of the fetal membranes to persist in situ after the termination of pregnancy may result from the resistance of the uterine lumen to grafts not having highly invasive properties, together with the general sloughing of the uterine lining which takes place after delivery.
