    Notes: To determine the prism sheath configurations in human cuspal enamel 80 teeth were initially ground to produce flat surfaces through the following planes: a horizontal series at successively greater distances from the dentinoenamel junction and longitudinally through the center of the cusps. Individual teeth were suspended in an acid-alcohol solution (1 cm3 conc. HCl in 100 cm3 95% ethanol) at 37°C for seven to ten days. The treatment “softened” the enamel to a depth of approximately 1 mm. The teeth were embedded in Epon and sectioned at 0.5 to 10 μm with a diamond knife. Thick and thin ground sections for phase contrast microscopy and acid-etched ground sections for Nomarski differential interference microscopy were prepared through the same regions. In thicker longitudinal sections, the prisms in gnarled enamel formed a zig-zag pattern which was unlike the twisting pattern generally observed in ground sections. The thinnest transverse sections showed the sheath outlines to be dramatically different from those seen elsewhere in the enamel. Some prism sheaths were circular, others were in the form of spirals. What could be described as sheaths within sheaths were also seen. In the thinnest longitudinal sections the prisms were seen to be elongated and discontinuous. Sheath outlines in enamel adjacent to the central core of gnarled enamel were similar to those described elsewhere in the body of the enamel. Keyhole, modified keyhole patterns and arcade forms were the dominant sheath patterns. Other atypical sheath configurations were seen scattered throughout this region.

    Notes: The agglutination with concanavalin A and wheat germ agglutinin of the established malignant cells, HEp 2, KB, HeLa, TDB-3, HTC and RV 3T3, and of the putatively normal cells, BHK 21, 3T3 and Wi-38 was examined as a function of their saturation densities in culture. A positive correlation between the saturation density of the cell lines and the capacity to agglutinate was demonstrated. Incubation for 15 minutes with 1.25 mg/ml of trypsin converted non-agglutinating and poorly agglutinating cells into agglutinable ones, while leaving the highly agglutinating lines largely unchanged. The magnitude of change in agglutination after trypsin treatment correlated inversely with saturation density. Although the extent of agglutination varied with the saturation density, the agglutinability of a particular line remained relatively unchanged at different cell densities.

    Notes: Both chick embryo fibroblasts and mouse 3T3 cells reduce the rate at which they incorporate H3 uridine into RNA as their growth becomes inhibited at high cell density. This reduction occurs as a function of the cell population density, and with chick embryo cells (in contrast to 3T3 cells) it is not accompanied by significant medium alterations. This indicates the importance of the cell population density in the control of cellular metabolism.The decline in H3 uridine incorporation is paralleled by a decline in the rate of uptake of the isotope into the acid-soluble pool, suggesting that decreased entry of H3 uridine into the cell, rather than a decreased rate of RNA synthesis, is responsible for the reduced rate of incorporation into RNA of density-inhibited cells. This suggestion was confirmed by finding that when the restriction on uridine uptake was overcome by increasing the concentration of uridine in the medium, the density-dependent inhibition of uridine incorporation was largely reversed. We conclude that, even though the rate of H3 uridine incorporation into RNA is reduced three- to five-fold in density-inhibited cells, the rate of synthesis of pulse-labeled RNA continues at 70 to 85% of the rapidly-growing rate.
