    Notes: Summary In early cleavage stages ofLymnaea stagnalis, three kinds of intercellular junctions could be distinguished up to the sixth cleavage: intermediate, septate and gap junctions. The first two form “junctional belts” located on the cell border at the periphery of the embryo. For the purpose of our study we were most interested in gap junctions as they are alleged to be structures that allow cell-to-cell communication. Gap junctions first appear at the four cell stage. Up to the sixth cleavage no difference in the distribution pattern could be found between and within each of the four quadrants of the embryo. Some of the cell tiers along the animal-vegetal axis lack gap junctions either between the blastomeres within the tier or between the blastomeres from adjacent tiers. All gap junctions observed in freeze fracture replicas show plaques with an irregular IMP pattern. The average IMP diameter measures 12 nm (SD±2 nm). In stages fixed after the fifth cleavage, gap junctions are found between micromeres at the animal pole and the central 3D macromere. This is in agreement with the presumed interaction between these cells at this stage. The possibility of a transition of non-functional into functional gap junctions after the fifth cleavage is discussed.

    Notes: Summary The accumulation of major haemolymph proteins (a group of proteins immunologically related to Calliphorin) their biosynthesis in vivo and in organ culture as well as their secretion, has been studied during the late larval stages and white pupae of the Mediterranean fruit flyCeratitis capitata. The accumulation of major haemolymph proteins in the haemolymph, shows a twenty fold increase from the 4-day old larvae to the white pupae stage, while in the fat body there is only a seven fold increase. It is evident from the in vivo and organ culture studies, that the major haemolymph proteins are synthesized during the late larval stage and their synthesis declines abruptly during the stage of white pupae. It seems also that each polypeptide has its own characteristic developmental kinetics of synthesis. The major haemolymph proteins are synthesized in the fat body and are very quickly secreted into the haemolymph.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'effet de la tétracycline HCl sur la synthèse de statolithes de sulfate de calcium chezAurelia a été étudié. La tétracycline inhibe la synthèse de statolithes et nématocystes à un stade précoce de strobilation. La tétracycline, cependant, n'est pas incorporée dans les statolithes ou nématocystes en formation. Comme la tétracycline ne se combine pas avec le calcium des statolithes de sulfate de calcium dihydraté d'Aurelia, l'explication des effets d'inhibition sur la différenciation de statolithes et nématocystes ne semble pas liée avec un facteur en rapport avec l'incorporation. Des étudesin vitro de quatre systèmes inorganiques de calcium et de tétracycline montrent que le sulfate de calcium dihydraté (gypse) n'incorpore pas la tétracycline: il en est de même de son équivalent isostructural, le phosphate de calcium hydrogéné dihydraté (brushite). Le carbonate de calcium et le phosphate de calcium (apatite) incorpore la tétracycline. L'explication des différences de comportement du calcium peut être liée à la structure cristalline des composés respectifs, et, en particulier, au fait que l'ion Ca est prêt ou non à réagir avec la tétracycline.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Es wird über die Wirkung von Tetracyclinchlorhydrat auf die Synthese von Calciumsulfat-Statolithen beiAurelia berichtet. Wird das Tetracyclin in einem Frühstadium der Strobilation verabreicht, so hemmt es die Synthese der Statolithen und der Nematocysten. Das Tetracyclin wird jedoch nicht in die sich bildenden Statolithen oder Nematocysten eingebaut. Da sich das Tetracyclin nicht mit dem Calcium der Calciumsulfatdihydrat-Statolithen derAurelia verbindet, so kann dessen Hemmwirkung auf die Statolithen und die sich differenzierenden Nematocysten offenbar nicht mit einem einbaubedingten Faktor erklärt werden. Untersuchunge, die in vitro mit vier verschiedenen anorganischen Calciumsalzen und Tetracyclin ausgeführt wurden, zeigten, daß weder Calciumsulfatdihydrat (Gips), noch dessen isotrukturelles Aequivalent Calciumhydrogenphosphatdihydrat (Bruschit) Tetracyclin einbauen. Dagegen inkorporieren Calciumcarbonat und Calciumphosphat (Apatit) das Tetracyclin. Die Erklärung für dieses unterschiedliche Verhalten der Calciumsalze findet sich in der Kristallstruktur der betreffenden Verbindungen, d.h. es hängt davon ab, ob das Calciumion ür die Reaktion mit Tetracyclin leicht verfügbar ist.
    Notes: Abstract The effect of tetracycline HCl on synthesis of calcium sulphate statoliths inAurelia is reported. Tetracycline inhibits synthesis of statoliths and nematocysts when administered at an early stage of strobilation. The tetracycline, however, is not incorporated into the developing statoliths or nematocysts. As the tetracycline does not combine with the calcium of the calcium sulfate dihydrate statoliths ofAurelia, an explanation for its inhibitory effects on statoliths and nematocyst differentiation apparently does not rest with an incorporation-related factor. In vitro studies of four inorganic calcium systems and tetracycline revealed that calcium sulfate dihydrate (gypsum) did not incorporate tetracycline nor did its isostructural equivalent, calcium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate (brushite). Calcium carbonate and calcium phosphate (apatite) did incorporate tetracycline. The explanation for these different behaviors of calcium can be found in the crystal structure of the respective compounds, namely, whether or not the Ca ion is readily available to react with tetracycline.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Une étude longitudinale, par séries, est effectuée pour déterminer les activités en phosphatases acide et alcaline dans les os longs et la mandibule. Le pH optimum des deux enzymes se situe respectivement à 10.2 et 5.4 pour les phosphatases alcaline et acide. Des portées synchronisées de rats sont sacrifiées, à raison d'une portée par jour, en commençant au premier jour jusqu'au 25ème jour post-partum. Les spécimens sont analysés en ce qui concerne leur concentration en protéine et leur activité en phosphatases. Une activité de types élevée et faible est observée au niveau du tissu osseux, ainsi qu'un type d'activité faible en phosphatase alcaline, au cours des pics d'activité en phosphatase acide, et vice-versa. Les pics observés suggèrent une concordance entre l'activité en phosphatase et les autres changements biochimiques de la croissance osseuse, au niveau de la matrice organique et la formation minérale. Une étude séparée, tenant compte de la possibilité d'une activité enzymatique rythmique, suggère l'existence d'un rythme diurne court chez les animaux jeunes.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Eine serienmäßige Longitudinaluntersuchung wurde unternommen, um die Aktivitäten der alkalischen und sauren Phosphatase in den Röhrenknochen und den Mandibulae von Ratten zu bestimmen. Das pH-Optimum der beiden Enzyme wurde für die alkalische Phosphatase bei 10,2 und für die saure Phosphatase bei 5,4 ermittelt. Synchronisierte und randomisierte Würfe wurden getötet, 1 Wurf pro Tag vom 1.–25. Tag post partum. Die Proben wurden auf ihren Proteingehalt und ihre Phosphatasenaktivität untersucht. Ein Muster niedriger und hoher Aktivität konnte in beiden Knochengeweben beobachtet werden, sowie ein Muster von niedriger Aktivität der alkalischen Phosphatase bei Spitzenwerten der sauren Phosphatase und umgekehrt. Die beobachteten Spitzenwerte lassen einen Zusammenhang vermuten zwischen der Phosphatasenaktivität und den anderen biochemischen Veränderungen, die im wachsenden Knochen auftreten, d. h. Bildung der organischen Matrix und des Minerals. Eine getrennte Untersuchung, welche sich mit der Möglichkeit rhythmischer Merkmale der Enzymaktivität befaßte, läßt vermuten, daß in den ersten Tagen ein schwacher Tagersrhythmus bestehen könnte.
    Notes: Abstract A serial longitudinal study was undertaken to determine the activities of the alkaline and acid phosphatases in the long bones and mandibles. The optimum pH of the two enzymes was recorded at 10.2 and 5.4 for alkaline and acid phosphatase, respectively. Synchronized and randomized litters of rats were killed, 1 litter daily, starting at day 1 to day 25 post partum. Samples were analyzed for protein concentration and activity of the phosphatases. A pattern of low and high activity was observed in both bony tissues, as well as a pattern of low alkaline phosphatase activity during acid phosphatase activity peaks, and vice versa. The observed peaks suggest a correspondence between phosphatase activity and the other biochemical changes occurring in the growing bone, i.e., organic matrix and mineral formation. A separate study, considering the possibility of rhythmic features of the enzyme activity suggests that there may be a small diurnal rhythm at an early age.

    Notes: Abstract Viability of Rhizobium leguminosarum bacteroids isolated from Pisum sativum was determined after sucrose gradient centrifugation of the bacteroids resulting in separation according to developmental stage. The results suggest that past a critical stage of development bacteroids lose viability. Similar experiments with R. japonicum bacteroids having a lower degree of morphological differentiation showed an appreciably higher viability in all gradient fractions. The results support the hypothesis that bacteroid morphology and viability is dependent on the nature of—and length of exposure to—the host plant cytoplasm.

    Notes: Summary A study was made of the ultrastructure of the paracervical (Frankenhäuser) ganglion of the newborn rat, using immersion fixation by glutaraldehyde (2.5%) followed by OsO4 (1%), or KMnO4 (3%) fixation. The cells containing dense—core vesicles were divided into three groups: (1) primitive sympathetic cells, (2) cells containing some dense-core vesicles 700–1100 Å in size and structurally resembling sympathetic neurons, called principal neurons, and (3) cells containing many dense-core vesicles with a larger, darker dense core, 800–2000 Å in diameter, called granule-containing cells. Using glutaraldehyde-osmium fixation, the principal neurons were further divided into dark and light cells on the basis of electron opacity of the cytoplasmic matrix. The granule-containing cells were believed to correspond to the small, intensely fluorescent cells (SIF-cells) previously described using the formaldehyde-induced fluorescence technique. On the basis of the amount of granules, the granulecontaining cells were classified as mature or maturing SIF-cells and as more primitive SIF-cells, and developing sympathicoblasts. The development of synapses in autonomic ganglia was discussed.

    Notes: Summary A study of the ultrastructure of the developing thymus of the leopard frog (Rana pipiens) revealed that the thymus had undergone all of the major changes which would persist through larval life and metamorphosis by the time that the animals had reached larval stage IV of Taylor and Kollros (1946). These changes included development of an outer, lymphoid cortical region and an inner, essentially nonlymphoid medulla; mitotic activity among lymphoid cell precursors and the formation of the first small lymphocytes; development of complex cysts containing PAS-positive material and the appearance of other signs of secretory activity among epithelial cells of the medulla; and differentiation of large myoid cells containing bundles of striated muscle fibrils. The changes are particularly noteworthy because they first appear during a period in which the animals are known to be developing the capacity to respond immunologically to allografts.

    Notes: Summary Glio-vascular relationships were studied in the developing rat cervical spinal cord with electron microscopy. Capillaries were first evident on the eleventh prenatal day and were surrounded by undifferentiated cells and neuroblasts separated from the capillary wall by a perivascular space. This space persisted until day thirteen, when basement membranes began to appear. Small cellular processes containing glycogen were visible adjacent to the capillary basement membrane beginning at day fifteen and became more prominent as development proceeded. The origin of these cellular processes was not apparent, but they were most likely collaterals of epithelial elements. In prenatal animals neuroblasts or neurons were in direct contact with the capillary basement membrane. Cells resembling adult astrocytes were first observed during the nineteenth day. Astrocytic processes completely invested the capillaries, separating them from neurons in the spinal cord of all postnatal animals.

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructural alterations in the anterior midgut epithelium of the fly Calliphora were investigated by electron microscopy. Nine developmental stages, from late larval to late adult, were studied. During metamorphosis, a tube is formed by proliferation of undifferentiated cells residing in cell nests in the basal part of the larval epithelium. The process of microvillus formation is described and compared with that in the embryonic stage. Differences between larval and imaginal cells were found in the rate of microvillus formation and in the occurrence of dense vesicles. The formation of a basal labyrinth coincides roughly with microvillus formation. Glycogen deposits occur mainly in the pupal stage and are almost always absent after emergence. Epithelial crypts are formed in late pupae by modification of the existing layer of cells together with a localized development of muscle fibres. In the adult stage changes may take place in the form of the cell apex, which generally assumes a more pointed shape, and in the amount of osmiophilic material, aggregating almost exclusively in the supranuclear part of the cell.

    Notes: Summary A developmental study at the electron microscopic level was conducted of the fat body cells of Hyalophora cecropia (L.). During the last larval instar the fat body increases in volume and the cells exhibit a well developed rough endoplasmic reticulum and protein bodies of diverse sizes. In the pupal fat body, the protein bodies appear to be enclosed by a double membrane and contain glycogen granules, ribosomes and mitochondrion-like structures. In addition, there are large lipid globules, cytolysomes and rough endoplasmic reticulum. The ultrastructure of the protein bodies suggests the development of large bodies by fusion of smaller protein bodies. Changes in fat body cell ultrastructure were followed during adult development and cytological evidence was obtained for the depletion of protein, glycogen and lipid in the female during this period. The female adult fat body cell contains free ribosomes, protein bodies, many mitochondria, a few lipid globules and glycogen granules. The male moth fat body cells have many mitochondria, a few glycogen granules, essentially no protein bodies, but an abundance of large lipid globules. Studies on the influence of egg maturation on the morphology of the fat body of Hyalophora gloveri (L.) revealed that ovariectomy of pupae yielded adults having more fat body than normal females, and that the fat body cells of the ovariectomized animals contained more glycogen, lipid and protein. Male pupae receiving ovarian implants developed into adults containing eggs and possessed more fat body than normal females but less than normal males. Very few glycogen granules were found in the fat body cells of normal males or males with implanted ovaries.
