    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Chez l'homme, une population de neurones du noyau infundibulaire renferme des composés révélables par des I.S. dirigés contre les endorphines (α et β), l'ACTH, les MSH (α et β), et la β-LPH. Chez le foetus, ces neurones révélés par des I.S. anti-β-endorphine et anti-ACTH(17–39) sont identifiables dès la 11ème semaine. Ils renferment des grains de sécrétion immunoréactifs à l'anti-β-endorphine visibles en microscopie électronique. Chez l'adulte, de tels neurones sont situés dans le noyau infundibulaire. Leurs fibres se terminent autour des vaisseaux dans la zone de Green et la tige infundibulaire, ou au contact de péricaryons non immunoréactifs dans le noyau infundibulaire. Ces neurones sont indifféremment révélés par des I.S. anti-ACTH(17–39) ou anti-β-endorphine. Parmi cette population, les plus immunoréactifs sont marqués par des I.S. anti-α-MSH ou anti-β-MSH, anti-β-LPH, anti-α-endorphine ou anti-ACTH (1–24). Ces résultats suggèrent que des substances identiques ou apparentées aux endorphines, à la LPH, à l'ACTH et aux MSH sont élaborées par ces neurones probablement à partir d'une molécule mère similaire à la pro-opiocortine. Les fibres immunoréactives se terminant au contact des capillaires de l'éminence médiane pourraient intervenir dans le contrôle neuro-humoral de l'adénohypophyse, ou dans la modulation d'autres terminaisons peptidergiques ou aminergiques. Les fibres au contact de péricaryons non immunoréactifs peuvent correspondre à des relations avec d'autres neurones infundibulaires, peut-être dopaminergiques.

    Notes: Summary In man, discrete neurons of the infundibular (arcuate) nucleus contain compounds that can be stained with anti-endorphin (α and β), anti-ACTH, anti-MSH (α and β) and anti-β-LPH immune sera (I.S.) In the fetus, certain neurons stain with anti-β-endorphin or anti (17–39)ACTH starting from the 11th week of fetal life. At the ultrastructural level, these neurons contain elementary granules that are immunoreactive with anti-βendorphin. In the adult, neurons immunoreactive with anti-β-endorphin are found in the infundibular nucleus. Their axonal fibers terminate around blood vessels in the neurovascular zone and in the pituitary stalk, or establish contacts with nonimmunoreactive perikarya of the infundibular nucleus. These neurons can be stained with anti(17–39)ACTH and anti-β-endorphin I.S. The most reactive are also stained moderately with anti-α-MSH, anti-β-MSH, anti-β-LPH, anti-α-endorphin, or anti(1–24)ACTH I.S. These results indicate that, in man, compound(s) identical with or immunologically related to endorphins, β-LPH, ACTH and MSH are secreted by certain hypothalamic neurons. These agents probably originate from a common precursor molecule similar to the so-called pro-opiocortin. Immunoreactive fibers terminating around capillaries of the median eminence constitute a tubero-infundibular system that may be involved in the neurohumoral control of the adenohypophysis or in the regulation of other peptidergic or monoaminergic endings. Fibers also terminate close to nonimmunoreactive perikarya that might possibly be dopaminergic.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Dans les cerveaux de rats ayant reçu une injection intra-ventriculaire de colchicine, une même population de neurones du noyau arqué et du noyau ventro-médian est indifféremment immunoréactive à divers I.S. dirigés contre les endorphines (α et β), l'ACTH(1-24), l'ACTH(17-39), les MSH (α et β) et la β-LPH, comme le démontrent des études comparatives sur coupes sériées. Ces neurones sont intensément marqués par l'anti-ACTH(17-39), l'anti-β-endorphine, l'anti-α-MSH et l'anti-β-MSH et plus faiblement immunoréactifs à l'anti-α-endorphine, l'anti-β-LPH et l'anti-ACTH(1-24). Exceptionnellement, certains neurones immunoréactifs avec l'anti-ACTH(17-39) et l'anti-β-endorphine sont faiblement ou non reconnus par l'anti-α-MSH et l'anti-β-MSH. Les fibres immunoréactives se terminent dans l'éminence médiane latérale et dans le noyau arqué lui-même, ou forment des voies ascendantes le long du III∘ Ventricule. Des études comparatives avec d'autres I.S. ou avec la technique de Falck et Hillarp, montrent que ces neurones sont différents de ceux producteurs de LH-RH, de somatostatine, de neurophysine, d'ocytocine, de vasopressine et de dopamine. Ces résultats suggèrent que certains neurones de l'hypothalamus du rat synthétisent plusieurs neuropeptides identiques aux ou immunologiquement très voisins des peptides du groupe endorphine, ACTH, α-MSH et β-LPH, vraisemblablement à partir d'un précurseur commun similaire à celui des cellules corticotropes adénohypophysaires. Ces neuropeptides ayant une origine cellulaire et moléculaire commune pourraient être impliqués comme neurotransmetteurs ou neuromodulateurs dans le fonctionnement du système nerveux central.

    Notes: Summary In rat brains intraventricularly injected with colchicine, the same discrete neurons of the arcuate and ventromedial nuclei can be stained with antisera against α- and β-endorphins, (1-24)ACTH, (17-39)ACTH, α- and β-MSH, and β-LPH, as demonstrated by comparative studies in consecutive serial sections. These neurons are strongly reactive with anti-(17-39)ACTH, anti-β-endorphin, anti-α-MSH and anti-β-MSH, and more faintly stained with anti-α-endorphin, anti-β-LPH and anti-(1-24)ACTH. Exceptionally, neurons reactive with anti-(17-39)ACTH and anti-β-endorphin are poorly stained or completely negative with anti-α-MSH and anti-β-MSH. Immunoreactive fibers end in the lateral median eminence and in the arcuate nucleus proper, or form ascending pathways along the third ventricle. Comparative studies with other antisera or with the Falck and Hillarp technique show that these neurons differ from the elements producing LH-RH, somatostatin, neurophysin, oxytocin, vasopressin and dopamine. These results suggest that the same neurons of the rat hypothalamus synthesize several neuropeptides identical with or immunologically related to endorphins, ACTH, α-MSH and β-LPH, probably arising from a common precursor molecule similar to that found in the corticotropic cells of the pituitary. These neuropeptides of a common cellular and molecular origin might be involved in basic processes of the central nervous system as neurotransmitters or neuromodulators.

    Notes: Abstract The room temperature cw oscillation at 1.05 and 1.32 μm of lithium neodymium tetraphosphate [LiNd(PO3)4, LNP] lasers in an external resonator and, for the first time, also in a Fabry-Perot resonator with directly applied mirrors is reported. The growth and fluorescence properties of the LNP crystals are briefly described. Laser parameters such as threshold pump power, output power, differential efficiency, optical gain, emission cross section and laser modes are both measured and calculated. Laser experiments show the threshold pump power to be lower for 1.05 μm than for 1.32 μm emission because of the smaller emission cross section; the pump power density is lower for the external resonator than for the Fabry-Perot resonator because of its higher mode losses.

    Notes: Abstract This paper describes a 1 m-long CW HCN discharge laser with a hollow dielectric rectangular discharge tube of 5×20 cm2 cross-section. For optimum working conditions, the characteristics of the amplifying medium have been made constant over the cross-section, by using an additional magnetic field. Then, the unsaturated gain for the 337 μm line is 6.8% m−1. It is shown to be dependent on the smaller dimension of the cross-section rather than on the other dimension. By using the tube as a waveguide, laser output power of 1 Watt might be obtained with a discharge length of 4 m, instead of the 12m-long discharge required to get the same output power from a cylindrical waveguide laser.

    Notes: Summary Two giant neurons (diameter 130 μm) were identified immunocytochemically by means of the unlabeled antibody enzyme technique with anti ACTH 1–39 and 1–24 in the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis. The cells are located in the visceral and the right parietal ganglion, respectively. They contain moderately electron dense elementary granules (diameter 150–160 nm). By means of the intracellular horseradish peroxidase injection technique it was shown that the cells send fibres into the neuropiles of various ganglia and into nerves. Synapses occur on the fine fibre branches in the neuropile. Synapse-like structures were found on the cell bodies and on the major fibres. The giant neurons are electrotonically coupled. With toluidine blue staining for small peptides it was demonstrated that in the central nervous system of the pond snail numerous peptidergic neurons occur in addition to those identified with the classical staining methods for neurosecretion.

    Notes: Abstract It was shown by the method of indirect immunofluorescence that ACTH appears in the cephalic lobe of the adenohypophysis of chick embryos after the 8th day of development. A new tissuespecific antigen (A3) was found in the adenohypophysis: It is located in the cephalic lobe and appears on the 7th day of embryonic development. It is concluded from the results of quantitative analysis of the distribution of ACTH and antigen A 3 in cells of the adenohypophysis of 11-day chick embryos that antigen A 3 is present in the corticotropic cells.
