    Notes: The interaction of Leishmania with lysosomes within macrophages in vivo has been investigated. Lysosomes labeled with colloidal gold in vivo fused with phagocytic vacuoles containing Leishmania amastigotes within the macrophages of infected footpad tissue of BALB/c mice. This localization of Leishmania within macrophage phagolysosomes in vivo is the first confirmation for any obligate intracellulaire protozoon that parasite-lysosome interactions in vitro occur in vivo.

    Notes: Abstract. Seedlings of Pharhitis nil show a circadian rhythm in the capacity to flower in response to the timing of a second red light pulse given at various times after a first saturating exposure to red when this is given together with a benzyladeninc spray. There are also changes in the photon irradiance required for half maximum response to the second red pulse.The photochemical properties of phytochrome in the photoperiodically sensitive cotyledons were also shown to change rhythmically. Oscillations in both pr→ Pfr and Pfr→ Pr photoconversion characteristics persisted over at least two circadian cycles with a periodicity of about 12 h. There were, however, no significant oscillations in either Pfr peak absorbance or in Δ(ΔA). The changes in sensitivity for the photoconversion of Pr→ Pfr did not parallel the much larger changes in sensitivity of the flowering response to red light. The amplitude of the Pr→ Pfr rhythm was at least as great as that for Pr→ Pfr, but the flowering response to far-red light was not rhythmic, nor was there any large change in sensitivity. The changes in photoconversion properties may reflect a basic biochemical oscillation which affects both photoreceptor properties and sensitivity to photoreceptor input.There was also a marked rhythm in the Pfr/P ratio that would be established by a saturating pulse of red light and this too may have affected the flowering response to such a pulse.Far-red light inhibited flowering when given at any time during the inductive night. After 14 h in darkness, Pfr could still be measured in the cotyledons and it was concluded that far-red light inhibited flowering by removing Pfr As red light also inhibited flowering at this time, there may be two pools of phytochrome with different kinetic properties.

    Notes: Summary A differential plating method permitted preparation of cultures significantly enriched for Type II pneumocytes. These cells were maintained in a differentiated state for at least 12 d, identifiable morphologically (by presence of osmiophilic lamellar inclusion bodies) and bio-chemically (by demonstration of synthesis of phosphatidyl choline and production of disaturated lecithin).

    Notes: Summary A simple method for the in situ embedding of cell cultures for electron microscopy has been developed. The procedure is carried out in its entirety within the culture flask, using only standard fixing and embedding reagents. Precoating of the supporting surface of the flask with alternative substrates is not required. This method permits precise orientation of samples with respect to the phase-contrast image of living cultures.

    Notes: Summary Calmodulin, a calcium binding protein, has been implicated in the regulation of many calcium-dependent biological processes. Since calcium has an important role in hard tissue genesis, both at intra- and extracellular levels, we anticipate that calcium binding proteins may modulate this process. The present study investigated a mineralising tissue, the rat molar tooth germ, to determine the presence of calmodulin-like activity. A heat-treated cell-free extract of tooth germs provided enhancement of Ca2+-dependent Mg2+-ATPase and 3′:5′-nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity. No enhancement occurred in the absence of calcium or in the presence of trifluoperazine. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of this extract revealed a protein band of approximately 18,000 mol. wt. These findings indicate the presence of calmodulin-like activity in rat molar tooth germs and support the proposal that calcium and calcium binding proteins, in particular calmodulin, have a major regulatory role in the biology of mineralising tissues.

    Notes: Abstract Swarming locusts show three physical criteria, i.e. the phase changes of melanisation of the nymphal stages or hoppers, of the proportions of certain body parts (morphometric ratios), and increased genetic recombination (meiotic chiasma frequencies) in the adult. The control of these changes, initiated by aggregation into swarms, i.e. gregarisation, seems to be vested in a pheromone which is produced by all hoppers in both the solitaria and gregaria phases, also by hoppers of the albino strain. Such a pheromone can be extracted from the locust room air and from the locust, these extracts showing high activity in bioassays, primarily in increased chiasma frequencies but also in hopper colour. The extract in risella oil is more efficient than that in petroleum ether and can be distilled to yield an active distillate. The pheromone is secreted in the faeces of hoppers but not of adults. There is evidence in faeces bioassays that all three physical criteria are affected; the pheromone may be called locustone. It is manufactured or secreted in a specific section of the alimentary canal, i.e. the crop. Reception is not through the antennae but through the stigmata. Preliminary chemical analysis of a risella oil air extract distilled into various other solvents showed the presence of a relatively simple saturated aliphatic chain with a carbonyl function, perhaps a ketone or an ester.

    Notes: Summary Human β-galactosidase and α-neuraminidase deficient mucolipidosis [ML(gal-neur-)] is an inherited lysosomal enzymopathy which recently was designated as a sialidosis. We analyzed the neuraminidase deficiency of this disorder with genetic complementation analyses using a heterokaryon enrichment procedure. The genetic defects of two apparent variants of this disorder complemented the defects of the neuraminidase deficiency diseases, sialidosis I and mucolipidosis I, resulting in the restoration of neuraminidase activity in heterokaryons. The neuraminidase deficiency, therefore, may not be the primary defect in ML(gal-neur-) and is not an appropriate test for determining carrier status. The clinical and biochemical characteristics of this disorder suggest that a post-translational or processing event for these enzymes may be defective. The defect, however, is different from I-cell disease and pseudo-Hurler polydystrophy, two disorders of post-translational lysosomal enzyme biosynthesis, since complementation studies demonstrated recovery of intracellular β-galactosidase and α-neuraminidase levels in heterokaryons. The lack of human β-galactosidase expression in man-mouse somatic cell hybrids formed from fibroblasts of the infantile onset type disorder suggests that the defect is not corrected by the mouse genome. The ML(gal-neur-) disorder therefore appears to be a distinct subtype of the inherited neuraminidase deficiencies in which the defect may occur in a post-translational or regulatory step which coordinately affects the expression of lysosomal β-galactosidase and α-neuraminidase.

    Notes: Summary Cytogerontology, the science of cellular ageing, originated in 1881 with the prediction by August Weismann that the somatic cells of higher animals have limited division potential. Weismann's prediction was derived by considering the role of natural selection in regulating the duration of an organism's life. For various reasons, Weismann's ideas on ageing fell into neglect following his death in 1914, and cytogerontology has only reappeared as a major research area following the demonstration by Hayflick and Moorhead in the early 1960s that diploid human fibroblasts are restricted to a finite number of divisions in vitro. In this review we give a detailed account of Weismann's theory, and we reveal that his ideas were both more extensive in their scope and more pertinent to current research than is generally recognised. We also appraise the progress which has been made over the past hundred years in investigating the causes of ageing, with particular emphasis being given to (i) the evolution of ageing, and (ii) ageing at the cellular level. We critically assess the current state of knowledge in these areas and recommend a series of points as primary targets for future research.

    Notes: Summary The human and rodent forms of glyoxalase II (hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolase, HAGH) can readily be separated by starch gel electrophoretic procedures. Fifty-one human-rodent somatic cell hybrid clones were examined for their human HAGH and for human enzyme markers whose genes are encoced on each autosome and the X chromosome. Sixteen clones were also examined for their human karyotypes. Human glyoxalase II segregated only with chromosome 16, demonstrating that the gene is located on this chromosome.

    Notes: Abstract A set of rat monoclonal antibodies (ARC MAC 48 to 52 and 54 to 56), raised to phytochrome from dark-grown seedlings of Avena sativa L. was tested for the ability to discriminate between the red-absorbing (Pr) and far-red-absorbing (Pfr) forms of phytochrome by indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. MAC 50 bound more strongly to Pfr and MAC 49 and 52 showed preferential binding to Pr from extracts of dark-grown Avena seedlings; MAC 50 also bound more strongly to Pfr from brushite-purified phytochrome. The remainder of the monoclonal antibodies and a rabbit polyclonal antiphytochrome preparation did not discriminate between Pr and Pfr. The results provide evidence for conformational changes in defined regions of the phytochrome apoprotein upon photoconversion.
