    Notes: Profiles of fresh chick lenses of 5, 8, 11, 14, 17 and 20 days embryological age were photographed and from tracings of these profiles, volumes were calculated using a formula for volume of a solid of revolution. Accurate volumes were also obtained by assuming the lens to be two half oblate spheroids of different minor axis, or, better, two half-solids of profile (x/a)k + (y/b)k = 1. In addition, the k in this equation described well the curvature of the lens profiles and thus provided a quantitative measure of developing lens shape. Lens diameter, depth and shift of equatorial diameter upon lens axis as a function of age were also studied.

    Notes: The study of the ultrastructure of the kidney tubules of the crocodile was made to compare the cellular structure with the capacity for electrolyte resorption and the ability to create an osmotic gradient across the tubular wall. The crocodile tubular cells were found to differ from the mammalian tubular cells in that they do not have basal infoldings, but instead have open lateral spaces between the cells, similar in many aspects to those found in the mammalian gallbladder. The physiological role of these lateral spaces in solute and fluid transfer is discussed.

    Proliferative response in experimentally injured frog lens epithelium: Autoradiographic evidence for movement of DNA synthesis towards the injuryThis investigation was supported by Public Health Service Research grant 5R01-NB-05635-02 from the National Institute of Neurological Diseases and Blindness.

    Notes: In order to follow the movement of cells involved in the proliferative response induced by wounding, changes in the cell population of three regions of normal and injured frog lens epithelium were studied with respect to DNA synthesis and mitosis using autoradiography following intraperitoneal injection of H-3-thymidine. The injured lenses comprised two groups: one subjected to labeled thymidine at 40 hours post-injury when the proliferative response begins, the other at 72 hours when the proliferative response is at its peak. Lenses were fixed at increasing intervals after injection.The data show that a central injury initiates proliferation in a large number of cells; this response appears at first mainly among the cells in the outlying proliferative (pre-equatorial) zone, as judged by the number of labeled nuclei and mitoses seen there in the first few hours after injection in the 40 hour preparations. At later intervals labeled cells and mitoses appear centrally adjacent to the wound. And in the 72 hour preparations, the greatest concentration of reactive cells is adjacent to the wound. There is also thinning out of labeled cells in the proliferative zone and greater dilution of exposed emulsion grains over nuclei adjacent to the wound with time, suggesting that outlying cells migrate centrally, dividing en route. However, interpretation of these data is limited by the finding that H-3-thymidine injected intraperitoneally into the frog is not cleared rapidly from the circulation; the serum after 24 hours retains about 20% of the radioactivity (measured by scintillation counting) present at 15 minutes post-injection.

    Notes: In this study, the condensation of the three thoracic and 11 abdominal segmental ganglia to form a prothoracic and central nerve mass during embryogenesis is described. During katatrepsis, many changes occur in the organization of these ganglia; this study suggests that some of these changes are caused by mechanical forces acting on the ventral nerve cord at this time. The ventral nerve cord begins its anterior migration and coalescence ten hours after katatrepsis and is completed 63 hours later. The central ganglion is made up of the meso- and metathoracic ganglia and seven abdominal ganglia. Intrasegmental median cord nuclei are shown to form glial elements in the median sagittal plane of the neuropile and in the longitudinal connectives. Intersegmental median cord neuroblasts migrate into the posterior gangliomeres but, apparently, degenerate soon after katatrepsis. Lateral cord cells bordering on the neuropile form a glial investment that surrounds this fiber tract region. Peripheral lateral cord cells are shown to form the cells of the outer ganglionic sheath, the perineurium.

    Notes: The squirrel monkey uterine cervix was studied macroscopically and microscopically in intact and ovariectomized monkeys. The effect in ovariectomized monkeys of estradiol dipropionate or progesterone of both given after estrogen priming was studied by PAS staining.The lower portion of the cervix was dilated to form a vestibule into which projected fibromuscular colliculi which arose from the isthmic end of the cervix. The stratified squamous epithelium of the vagina was continuous through the external os with a similar epithelium lining the vestibule and covering the external surfaces of the colliculi. The transitional zone between the stratified epithelium and columnar cells was variable. The colliculi were covered internally with mucosal folds of columnar epithelium continuous with those of the endocervical canal.Glycogen concentration in the smooth muscle did not fluctuate markedly, irrespective of the hormones used. Glycogen granules were more numerous in the stratified squamous epithelium. Malt-diastase-resistant material appeared to be more abundant in the columnar epithelium and glandular lumina when the monkeys received both hormones than when they received solely estrogen or progesterone.

    Notes: The ultrastructural changes occurring during the differentiation of the pancreatic acinar cell were studied in White Leghorn chick embryos from the onset of pancreatic morphogenesis on day 3 of incubation (day 3) to hatching. Generally, the changes included a loss of some structures, the addition of others and modification of existing structures. Numerous cytoplasmic filaments which were present in the early migrating cells of the pancreatic bud were no longer present on day 5. The nucleoli enlarged temporarily on days 5-6 and then resumed a reduced size. The Golgi apparatus enlarged by day 6 and remained this way throughout the embryonic period. Associated with these changes was the initial appearance of the zymogen granules on day 5. The endoplasmic reticulum was present initially in both the smooth and the rough forms. The rough form and the outer nuclear membrane were both initially studded intermittently with aggregates of ribosomes. Subsequently, there was an increase in the number of attached ribosomes, an increase in the amount of rough reticulum and a decrease in smooth membranes. The ribosomes attached to the membranes appeared to augment the large free ribosome population characteristic of the early cells. Mitochondria did not appear to increase in number but there was an increase in size. The granules varied in kind, number and size with developmental age. The first granules formed (days 3-5) appeared to be miniatures of the mature type. Subsequently, a heterogeneity of granule morphologies was present.

    Histology, histochemistry, and emptying mechanism of the venom glands of some elapid snakesThis investigation was partially supported by National Institutes of Health grant AC 00151 from the Division of Accident Prevention, Bureau of State Services (to C.

    Notes: The venom glands of several species of elapid snakes are described. The main venom gland consists of many tubules which usually contain large amounts of secretion product. The accessory gland surrounds the entire venom duct and is usually composed of uniform mucous epithelium. The epithelium lining the tubules of the accessory gland of Naja naja is composed of two distinct types of cells. Histochemical tests indicate that the main venom gland reacts with mercury bromphenol blue and PAS but not with alcian blue. The accessory gland reacts with PAS and alcian blue, and not with mercury bromphenol blue. Treatment of sections with sialidase demonstrates the presence of a sialomucin in the accessory gland. Stimulation of the muscles associated with the venom gland offers an indication of the venom expulsion mechanism of Bungarus caeruleus. A comparison of the venom apparatus of elapid and viperid snakes emphasizes marked differences in the internal anatomy of the venom glands, muscles associated with the gland, and arrangement of glandular components. The morphological differences and dissimilar venom expulsion mechanisms support the recent view of the polyphyletic origin of venomous snakes.

    Notes: This study describes the post-embryonic growth of the terminal ganglion in Acheta domesticus in terms of volume and cell number. All measurements were made at the beginning of each instar from hatching until the final moult on animals reared under controlled conditions. The terminal ganglion increases about 40-fold in volume from 2 × 106 μ3 in the first instar to 85 × 106 μ3 in the adult. A double logarithmic plot of ganglion volume against body weight shows that the ganglion volume is a function of body weight to the 0.56 power. Initially the neuropile grows at a greater rate than the cortex; in later stages they increase at the same rate.Increase in cell number was determined from serial sections. The total number of cells, based on corrected nuclear counts, increases from 3,400 to 20,000. There is little or no increase in the number of neurons. There are approximately 2,000 association neurons and 100 motor neurons in all stages. The number of glial cells increase from 1,000 to 17,000. Their multiplication rate appears to be related to the increase in neuron volume.Despite the increase in glial cell number, increase in cell volume is primarily responsible for the increase in total volume of the ganglion.

    Notes: Epithelio-mesodermal interaction in mature thyroids of older chick embryos was tested by dissociation, monolayer culture to disrupt cytoplasmic organization, and reaggregation with heterologous and homologous mesoderm. Each combination formed a different histological pattern: with mesentery  -  islands of epithelial cells in a loose connective tissue; with heart  -  follicles at the ends of cords in a rich vascular bed, with perichondrium  -  a ring of follicles surrounding masses of cartilage; with thyroid capsule  -  normal thyroid organization. Electron-microscopic examination of cells incorporated into follicles revealed reorganization of canaliculate endoplasmic reticulum in only the homotypic combination. Therefore, interactions occur in mature organs as well as primordia.

    Notes: Seventy-seven hearts from one species of bat, Eidolon helvum Kerr, have been examined as a preliminary step in correlating cardiac form the and function in relation to flight in mammals. The supposition is that the heart, like the upper limbs and pectoral girdle, will show deviations from the common mammalian plan because of the animal's unusual way of life.The first thing that happens in flight, as in any form of exercise, is an immense increase in venous return to the heart. The architecture of the sinus venarum of the right atrium and of the right ventricle in the region of the atrioventricular valve, including the position of the papillary muscles, may be related to prevention of rapid overdistension of the right side of the heart. The walls of the inflow and outflow tracts of the right ventricle are exceptionally smooth, an anatomical feature that may have significance in that friction may be reduced. The left side of the heart resembles that of other mammals more closely.

    Notes: The ovarian cycle of the brook or 5-spined stickleback was studied histologically. Specimens were trapped between July, 1965 and August, 1966 in a shallow pond near London, Ontario.Spawning took place from mid-April to mid-July, when the water averaged 10°C. In early August, When the water averaged 20-22°C for prolonged periods, spawning ceased and the ovaries contained only oögonia, atretic mature oöcytes and empty follicles. Oögonia and immature oöcytes were found throughout the year but only in the spring did the mature stages begin to appear.Oöcytes for each year's spawning appear to arise mitotically from a residual stock of lightly basophilic oögonia. As the oöcytes mature, their basophilia increases and they acquire a vitelline membrane and follicular layer. The deeply basophilic cytoplasm of the early oöcyte becomes frothy, as oily droplets of primary yolk are laid down. Finally, it becomes filled with eosinophilic secondary yolk in the mature egg.Two types of atresia of developing eggs are common, especially during and after the spawning period. The first involves active phagocytosis of yolky material and hypertrophy of the follicular layer, leading to the formation of what could be called a “corpus luteum.” In the second type of atresia, neither phagocytosis nor hypertrophy was seen and nothing resembling a corpus luteum was formed.

    Notes: The structure of bone marrow from chickens and pigeons was studied with light and electron microscopy. Erythropoiesis occurs in the lumen of the medullary sinuses. Immature erythroid cells appear to adhere to the sinus wall and may thus be prevented from entering the peripheral circulation.The wall of the medullary sinuses is formed by elongated lining cells, lacking a basement membrane, which are continous except at sites where blood cells are passing through them.When viewed with the electron microscope, developing heterophil myelocytes, which occur only in the extravascular spaces, possess two populations of granules; one type is globular in content, the other is fibrillar in content. The globular type predominates during all stages of development and appears to be the specific granule. Specific granules originate from material which is formed in the Golgi complex, pinches off, and accumulates in expanded vesicles. The origin of the material in the fibrillar granules was not determined. Like the globular granules of heterophil leucocytes, granules of eosinophil leucocytes arise from material which is formed in the Golgi complex.

    Notes: The relationship between muscles and the components of the integument in muscle insertions have been studied with the electron microscope in two insects, Calpodes ethlius (Hesperiidae, Lepidoptera) and Rhodnius prolixus (Reduviidae, Hemiptera). The area of contact between the muscles and the epidermis is increased by interdigitating processes whose membranes are joined by intermediate junctions. The junctions occur at the level of a Z line so that actin filaments attach directly to them. Within the epidermis, microtubules extend from the junctions of the myoepidermal connection to the cuticle, where they attach to hemidesmosomes which line deep indentations of the membrane. The microtubules probably enable the tendinous epidermal cells to withstand the tensions exerted upon them by the muscles. The epidermis is anchored to the cuticle by tonofibrillae, homogeneous rods secreted in the deep indentations of the plasma membrane. Since the tonofibrillae of successive instars are continous, they penetrate and attach to the cuticulin, the outermost layer of the epicuticle.

    Notes: The anatomy of the ventral neck region of the scincid lizards Chalcides ocellatus and Scincus scincus is presented and is found to be similar to that of other lizards as described in the literature. The internal carotid artery arises by 3-5 roots from the dorsal side of the ascending limb of the carotid arch. During its first part, the internal carotid artery is completely divided into two nearly equal channels. The carotid sinus is more complicated in Chalcides than in Scincus. In lizards, it may be homologous to the carotid labyrinth of fishes and amphibians. Around the origin of the internal carotid artery are two kinds of epithelioid cells scattered in the adventitial connective tissue: a- large cells with rounded, faintly stained nuclei, and little, clear cytoplasm; b- cells with small darkly stained nuclei. Both kinds of cells appear to represent different levels of secretory activity. The number of the large cells increases with greater complexity of the carotid sinus. The cells also increase in size and number during summer (sexual period); this is especially true in younger animals. The epithelioid cells are considered to be homologous to the carotid body of higher vertebrates. The carotid sinus and epithelioid cells together form a closely interrelated system which may be intermediate between the carotid labyrinth of fishes and amphibians, and the carotid body of birds and mammals.

    Notes: The fine structure of the nerve cell types in the white planarian Procotyla fluviatilis were described. Ganglion cells comprise the major portion of the brain. These cells are irregular in shape with several cytoplasmic processes and contain ribosomes, a sparse endoplasmic reticulum, microtubules, lysosomes, and a Golgi apparatus with numerous small vesicles. Granule-containing cells are situated in the peripheral regions of the brain and along the nerve cords. These cells contain ribosomes, rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum and a Golgi apparatus with associated dense granules. The granules occupy most of the cytoplasm and are ∼ 750A in diameter with moderately dense contents, ∼ 750A with opaque contents, and ∼ 1000A with contents of medium density. These granules are similar to those in the nervous systems of higher animals that contain epinephrine, norepinephrine, and neurosecretory substance, respectively. Each cell contains predominantly one type of granule although there is some intermixing of granules and intermediate types between the three most abundant granules. Small clear vesicles, resembling cholinergic synaptic vesicles, and all types of dense granules occur in the neuropil and within nerve endings.

    Notes: Parenteral administration of methylcellulose causes massive splenomegaly and hemolytic anemia in rats. The red pulp of the spleen is markedly cellular due mainly to: (1) large numbers of voluminous free macrophages containing methylcellulose-induced vacuoles, (2) an increase in the number of plasma cells and (3) stasis of blood evidenced by a large number of erythrocytes and platelets in vessels, sinuses and cords. White pulp changes are usually less marked. Here the major change is the presence of macrophages containing methylcellulose-induced inclusions. The slow circulatory time in the spleen and the increase in macrophages may cause the hemolytic anemia observed in these animals.

    Notes: Different types of sebaceous glands in guinea pigs were chosen to study their comparative responsiveness to steroid hormones. Glands selected were (1) Sebaceous glands associated with rudimentary hair in the supracaudal gland; (2) Free sebaceous glands of the nipple; (3) Sebaceous glands associated with the hair. The results showed distinct differences in sensitivity among these different sebaceous glands and according to the sex of the experimental animal. The most responsive of the glands in males was the supracaudal gland; in the female the most responsive glands were the sebaceous glands of the nipple. Sebaceous glands associated with normal hair were relatively insensitive to changes in hormonal level. In all cases testosterone propionate was more potent in stimulating any of the sebaceous glands than progesterone. After gonadectomy, various sebaceous glands showed unequal states of depletion due to the different rates of differentiation and disintegration of their cells into sebum.

    Studies on the neurosecretory system of Ranatra elongata fabricius (Hemiptera: Nepidae) with reference to the distal fate of NCC I and II (1967)

    Notes: With the help of PF and PAVB bulk-stained preparations and sections the neurosecretory system of Ranatra elongata has been described. Two medial, each of 9-10 cells, and two lateral, each of 3-4 cells, groups of neurosecretory cells have been observed in the protocerebrum. Only the A-cells have been found to be positive to PAVB histo- and cyto-chemical technique. Axons of the A-cells after traversing the proto- and deuto-cerebrum emerge from the tritocerebrum as the NCC I. The NCC I after bypassing the corpora cardiaca penetrate the aorta wall. There is no physical continuity between the corpora cardiaca and the NCC I and the two are separable. The NSM from the A-cells, transported by their nerve fibers, has been observed in the aorta wall. On the basis of large accumulation on NSM in the aorta wall the latter has been considered as the storage-and-release organ for the A-material. Corpora cardiaca are found to be devoid of A-material. Axons from the B-cells, after emergence from the tritocerebrum as the NCC II, have been observed to penetrate the corpora cardiaca. On the basis of ample amounts of B-material the glands have been considered as the storage-and-release organ for the B-material only.Observations are compared with results on related species and it is concluded that two independent organ complexes constitute the neurosecretory systemt of R. elongata. The A-cells, their pathways, the NCC I, and the aorta wall comprise the first; and the B-cells, their pathways, the NCC II, and the corpora cardiaca the second. The former is concerned with the elaboration, transportion, storage-and-release of the A-material and the latter with the B-material. Finally arguments are presented to include the aorta wall in the neurosecretory system.

    Notes: The content and synthesis of ribonucleic acid (RNA) and protein was studied by microphotometry and autoradiography in the developing pancreatic acinar cells of White Leghorn chick embryos. These findings were correlated with previously reported changes in ultrastructural components. Shortly before or concomitant with zymogen granulation, RNA synthesis increased, in association with increases in the amount of nucleolar and cytoplasmic protein. The cytoplasmic fraction was transitory, whereas the accumulated nucleolar protein was maintained and was soon followed by an increase in nucleolar RNA. Concomitantly, a decrease in chromosomal RNA was observed, with the total amount of nuclear RNA staying constant. When zymogen first appeared, nucleoli were greatly enlarged due to large amounts of RNA and protein; total cellular RNA and protein had decreased slightly, in association with a decrease in cell volume. Subsequent development presented smaller nucleoli with decreased amounts of RNA and protein. Total cellular RNA increased due to its accumulation in the cytoplasm, probably as ribosomes. The accumulation of zymogen and the enlargement of other cellular structures contributed to an increase in total cellular protein. Prior to hatching, total cell RNA and protein decreased in amount, probably due to a reduction in cell volume through cell division.

    Notes: A correlated light and electron microscope study was made of lymphocyte-epithelial relations in the appendix of normal rabbits, ranging in age from one week to ten months. The lymphocyte migration into the epithelium was very slight at one week. The lymphocytes were increased considerably in number from two weeks to three months, grouping into unique nests in the epithelium. The basement membrane began to be penetrated by migrating cells at one week and bacame discontinuous in older animals. At one and two weeks, the epithelial cells contained glycogen, which disappeared at three weeks. Degenerating cells as well as bacilli were found in the epithelial cells and in the macrophages of the nodules. The varied appearance of bacilli in the macrophages indicates that they were being digested. The lymphocytes in the epithelium were larger, having less crowded cytoplasm as compared with those in the lymph nodules. Many lymphocytes were in deep folds of epithelial cells. There was evidence favoring an intracellular position for some lymphocytes in the epithelium.

    Notes: The limb tissues of the adult newt investigated for their fine structure include epidermis, subcutaneous glands, dermis, striated muscle, peripheral nerves and blood vessels. This survey complements and extends previous observations, emphasizing intercellular junctions, and the ubiquitous “glycocalyx” (= polysaccharide-protein lamella, around cells and adjacent to epithelia).Our survey touches on the characteristic tonofilaments, intercellular desmosomes and basal hemidesmosomes of the epidermis. The subcutaneous glands consist of secretory cells with a granular product, and myoepithelial cells; intercellular desmosomes are present. The adepidermal reticulum of collagen fibrils reveals periodic regions of intersecting fibrils ( = nodules), and fibril continuity with the underlying dermis: a striking feature is the adipose tissue closely applied to the adepidermal reticulum. The limb striated muscle displays typical banded myofibrils, and a triad system with centrotubules in the I-band close to the Z-band: terminal sacs of sarcoplasmic reticulum complete the triad system. A particularly prominent glycocalyx is applied to the surface of the sarcolemma. The peripheral nerves of the limb possess connective tissue sheaths with prominent vesiculation of the cell membranes, and an occasional intercellular desmosomal junction. Blood vessels typically have endothelial cells with prominently vesiculated plasma membranes.This investigation serves as the basis for recognizing the fine structure of tissue responses to trauma, their repair, and regeneration.

    Notes: White Leghorn eggs were incubated to desired prevasular stages. Each embryo, upon its intact yolk and surrounded by albumen, was rolled from the shell into a sterile 50 ml beaker. In an uppermost position, the blastoderm was lightly stained with neutral red. Three types of localized cuts were made as indicated below, and the beaker-embryo unit placed in a sterile humidified chamber for further incubation. Results: (1) Unilateral cuts adjacent to the body and parallel with its axis blocked or suppressed formation of the vitelline artery on the cut side, even though healing occurred; (2) A specific site was found in the area pellucida opposite the sinus rhomboidalis which, when lightly cut perpendicular to the body axis, resulted in blockage or shifting of the final junction between aorta and vitelline artery as far cephalad as the thirteenth somite level. Formation of a dual final junction with the aorta also occurred. (3)Transverse cuts through the body axis and into the area pellucida bilaterally, frequently resulted in bilateral blockage or bilateral shifting. In still other cases, growth of a functional loop around the cut to connect the aortae in anterior and posterior segments with the vitelline artery were observed. Other unique circulatory patterns are described.Apparently, slight interference with the capillary plexus which precedes the vitelline artery causes anomalous development. Circulation is considered a major factor in arterial differentiation. Cutting probably alters the plexus and relation of its components to the onset of blood flow.

    Notes: The forms of the tectorial membrane and its connections to the ciliary tufts of the hair cells have been studied in detail in 18 species of lizards and, less thoroughly, in three others. This group, which represents eight lizard families, exhibits three forms of tectorial membrane: a complete form that connects to all parts of the auditory papilla, an abbreviated form that makes this connection only in one limited region of the papilla, and a dendritic form in which the distal portion of the membrane subdivides into strands reaching all the hair cells.Sometimes the tectorial membrane connects directly with the tufts of the hair cells, but more often it makes this connection through intermediary structures. Seven types of such intermediary structures have been identified (if we include the sallet, which is not “intermediate” in a strict sense).Detailed descriptions are given of the various forms of tectorial membrane structures and their variations along the auditory papilla in 12 lizard species. The description for Iguana iguana is offered as representative of the iguanid pattern found in ten members of this family.Consideration is given to the functioning of the tectorial membrane, and also of the sallet, in the process of hair-cell stimulation.

    Notes: An electron microscope study of oocyte maturation in the mouse revealed that some mitochondria undergo gradual transformation in their ultrastructural appearance. In very young oocytes these mitochondria were already found to contain vacuoles, one in each such organelle. In somewhat older oocytes more mitochondria displayed vacuoles which generally appeared to be getting larger. These intramitochondrial vacuoles were found to be essentially optically empty structures surrounded by a single membrane. In favorable sections someof the developing vacuoles had a bottle-shaped appearance, the constricted end of which was attached to the inner limiting membrane of the mitochondrion. With further maturation of the oocytes vacuoles having a pear-shaped appearance became evident. An hypothesis was presented outlining the mode of formation of these vacuoles by expansion of the individual cristae. Intramitochondrial transformations occuring during both oogenesis and spermatogenesis in mammals were reviewed.

    Notes: The monotypic perciform suborder Luciocephaloidei possesses the following, previously unknown, salient morphological characters: a third joint, the nasopalatopterygoid, between neurocranium and suspensorium; a toothless and dorsally exposed prevomer; no pharyngeal processes on either parasphenoid or basioccipital; a tympanum-covered foramen exoccipitale in the saccular bulla as a hearing organ; a gular ossification; a craniovertebral joint with small exoccipital condyles widely separated from the basioccipital condyle; and a large physoclystic swimbladder with a notable caudal extension. The seemingly functionless gular-like mental ossification is considered a paleomorphic structure with a neogenetic development. Attenuation in longitudinal growth is evident in the derivatives and dermal additions of the mandibular arch and nasal capsule while other regions of the head have remained independent. The primary adaptive significance of the attenuation in the growth of the entire preorbital region is the accomodation of oral incubation. Secondarily the elongate jaws increase both the speed and grasping range of the bite in prey catching. The degree of jaw protrusion depends mainly on the length of the maxillary. The exaggerated length of the ascending processes of the premaxillaries may be the result of a positive differential growth rate within one growth field. The meaning of the preponderance of parallel-fibered cranial muscles is discussed in respect to holding functions, greatest possible excursion of the insertion with minimum loss of force, and muscle fiber length. Based on the overall morphology, the monotypic suborder Luciocephaloidei is retained.

    Notes: Osteology, myology and motion analysis of the head of the anabantoid fish Helostoma temmincki, a specialized filter feeder, has revealed six functional units: neurocranium, suspensory apparatus, opercular apparatus, hyoid apparatus, branchial apparatus and pectoral girdle. Interactions between the functional units take place through four couplings involved in opening and protruding the jaws. The first coupling is activated in the beginning of the opening cycle by the levator operculi muscle through the opercular apparatus, interoperculomandibular ligament and mandible. The second is activated during feeding by contraction of the sternohyoideus through the hyoid apparatus, interopercular, interoperculomandibular ligament and mandible. The third coupling is active during feeding and “kissing” by contraction of epaxial muscles through mediation of the neurocranium to the jaw apparatus. The fourth coupling is the only one active during air intake and involves contraction of the levator arcus palatini which abducts and rotates the suspensory apparatus forwards, causing the mandible to drop. The retention of isolated ancestral characters during mosaic evolution are explained in terms of the maintenance of couplings which represent functional associations of seemingly remote structures. When natural selection acts on one component of a functional unit or coupling, it essentially acts on all associated elements simultaneously causing character complexes to evolve in common evolutionary trends. It is feasible that functional analysis can separate primary from secondary evolutionary trends.

    Notes: Five types of sense organs have been found on the antennal flagellum of Forficula auricularia Linnaeus: (1) tactile hairs; (2) long, thick-walled chemoreceptors; (3) short, thick-walled chemoreceptors; (4) thin-walled chemoreceptors and (5) coeloconic chemoreceptors. Earlier workers have placed the first three of these in a single class. The structural characteristics and distribution of these five kinds of sensilla on the antenna are described. All of the types except the third have been reported previously for other species but short, thick-walled chemoreceptors have not been described before. They are remarkable for the presence of (1) a broad pad-Like structure that absorbs dyes readily at the distal end of the peg and (2) a spheroid body, over a micron in diameter, on the dendrite of each olfactory neuron at the point where it narrows to assume the structure of a cilium. The antennal sense organs of a few specimens of Chelisoches morio (Fabricius), Labidura riparia (Pallas) and Euborellia annulipes (Lucas) were also examined.

    Notes: Histochemical methods, especially azo dye methods for detecting acid phosphomonoesterase activity were applied to normal, regenerating and denervated, amputated limbs from larval Amblystoma maculatum. Efforts were made to control inactivation of enzymic activity and diffusion of both enzyme and reaction product. “Base-line” values for enzymic activity were determined for normal limbs. Activity appeared most intense in macrophages, less intense in epidermis and cartilage matrix. Some activity was detected in Schwann cells, peri- and endoneurium and muscle fibers form normal limbs. Enzymic activity in regenerating limbs was strongest within macrophages which appeared in increased numbers especially in early stages. Wound tissue showed little increased activity. As the blastema formed, increased enzymic activity was detected in epidermis and within increased numbers of macrophages. Chondrocytes showed increased activity especially during cartilage matrix deposition. Amputated, denervated limbs showed large numbers of active macrophages beneath and within epidermis and along muscle. As regression commenced, areas of cartilage matrix breakdown showed increased enzymic activity but, in general, greatest activity was in macrophages. The various possible roles of acid phosphomonoesterase activity in the specific biological situations dealt with are considered in light of such observations.

    Notes: Basal tail constriction occurs in about two-thirds of the species of plethodontid salamanders. The constriction, which marks the site of tail autotomy, is a result of a reduction in length and diameter of the first caudal segment. Gross and microscopic anatomical studies reveal that many structural specializations are associated with basal constriction, and these are considered in detail. Areas of weakness in the skin at the posterior end of the first caudal segment, at the attachment of the musculature to the intermyotomal septum at the anterior end of the same segment, and between the last caudosacral and first caudal vertebrae precisely define the route of tail breakage. During autotomy the entire tail is shed, and a cylinder of skin one segment long closes over the wound at the end of the body.It is suggested that specializations described in this paper have evolved independently in three different groups of salamanders.Experiments and field observations reveal that, contrary to expectations, frequency of tail breakage is less in species with apparent provisions for tail autotomy than in less specialized species. The tail is a very important, highly functional organ in salamanders and it is suggested that selection has been for behavioral and structural adaptations for control of tail loss, rather than for tail loss per se.

    Notes: The major events associated with the morphogenesis of the amphibian alimentary tract are described and illustrated with a series of photomicrographs that present a continuous account of the differentiation process from its onset at stage 38 until the initiation of feeding at stage 46. Histological evidence is presented for the normal disappearance of the midgut region of the archenteron and the de novo formation of the intestine through the yolk mass. The mechanics of intestinal lumen formation are discussed in terms of the dynamic autonomous actions and interactions of the endoderm and the splanchnic mesoderm. The opening of the intestinal lumen as a consequence of cytolysis or cellular digestion is discounted. The relation of the present observations to the previously described polar endoderm cells is considered.

    Notes: The bullfrog, Rana catesbeiana, possesses lympho-myeloid and epithelial structures that are morphologically similar in some respects to lymph nodes of mammals. These organs are present during the entire life cycle of the frog, however, the structures that are present during larval stages do not appear to be morphological precursors of adult organs. According to certain terms used previously by other investigators, two major organs are present throughout the larval stages: the lymph gland and the ventral cavity body. In the adult, the jugular body, the epithelial body, the precoracoid and propericardial bodies are found in the ventral neck region in contrast to the lateral and ventral arrangement of the lymph gland and ventral cavity body in larvae. The function of these organs is not known but it is believed that they play a role in the production of certain blood cells, particularly lymphocytes, and they may be involved in some aspects of the differentiation and maintenance of the immune response capacity.

    Notes: Silver stained Cordylophora were examined by light and electron microscopy, which provided a general picture of nerve cell forms and distribution for comparison with electron micrographs of osmium-fixed tissues from the same hydroid. Muscle, nerve and neurosensory components were studied in the nectophore of Nanomia (O. Siphonophora) and in the hydromedusae Sarsia and Euphysa by means of vital staining and optical and electron microscopy of epon sections; particular attention was given to relationships and interconnections between the cellular elements of the two marginal nerve rings. Mitochondrial size, numbers and types of vesicles and the occurrence of neurotubules and of parts of sensory cilia may provide useful ultrastructural clues for recognizing nerve elements, but serial sections are often needed to make identification conclusive.In Cordylophora and Nanomia, some neurites contain massed A vesicles (membrane-bounded dense granules) suggestive of neurosecretion (cf. reports on Hydra). However, a small type of A vesicle also occurs at synapses in Sarsia, indicating a probable role here in junctional transmission. Vesicles occur on both sides of some synapses (as previously reported for Cyanea) but on one side only in others, these being the first examples of polarized junctional ultrastructure in coelenterates.

    Notes: Ductuli efferentes in four examined genera of family Didelphidae are organized into highly convoluted tubules, located within a conical body adjacent to the vascular plexus supplying the testis. They have yellowish-green color in the adult Didelphis virginiana and grey pink color in other genera. The ductuli efferentes in all examined animals are lined by very low columnar cells, covered by microvilli or booth cilia and microvilli.Histochemical analysis reveals several types of cytoplasmic granules in the genera examined. A single sperical body about 1.5 μ in diameter is found in epithelial cells of the four eyed opossum (genus Philander); this body stains positively for RNA and non-histone protein, and appears granular under the electron microscope, without a limiting membrane. Abundant cytoplasmic bodies in the Virginia opossum show strong reactions for SH groups; these granules may be responsible for the green color of the ductuli in this species. Ultrastructural studies show that the morphology of membrane limited granules in the ductuli of the examined genera is characteristic for each genus. Abundant pinocytotic vacuoles in the apices of these cells and a strongly positive alkaline phosphatase reaction suggest a marked absorptive activity of epithelial cells.

    Notes: The enigmatic lophophoral organs of phoronids are demonstrated to by accessory sex glands. In the hermaphroditic Phoronis vancouverensis, each mature adult has two pairs of such glands: female nidamental glands that facilitate the temporary brooding of the embryos and male accessory spermatophoral organs that function in spermatophore elaboration. Functional males of Phoronopsis harmeri have complex accessory spermatophoral organs while females of this non-brooding dioecious species lack accessory sex glands.In both species, coelomic spermatozoa are accumulated within the nephridia and passed en masse into the partially enclosed spermatophoral organs. There each sperm mass is molded into a characteristic shape and encased in one or more membranes before release as a spermatophore into the ambient water. The structure of the spermatophore is characteristic for each species and is correlated with the functional morphology of the distinctive spermatophoral organs.The existence of spermatophores, the non-primitive nature of the spermatozoa, and additional features of reproductive biology dictate that fertilization is internal in these species, but attempts to determine the means of sperm transfer proved futile. Reproductive potential and behaviour of male Phoronopsis, means of gamete segregation in Phoronis, and general pattern of reproductive biology for both phoronids were also studied.

    Notes: Large dogs are able to deliver a powerful bite that generates considerable stress in the anterior, prehensile part of the jaws.In the upper jaw most of the biting force is borne by the anterior teeth. The palatal mucosa provides little resistance to deformation. It is easily compressed and rather mobile.In the lower jaw, the mucosa covering the upper surface of the symphysis receives a sizeable portion of the biting force. It is firmly attached to the underlying bone and possesses special connective tissue arrangements that enable it to transduce locally applied pressure to tension distributed over a broad area.

    Notes: Goldfish testes were nutritionally regressed in about 115 days regardless of season and without controlled light or temperature. A gonosomatic index (testes weight ″ 100/body weight) of the regressed fish was about one tenth that of spawning fish. The regressed testes were primarily composed of spermatogonia, spermatocytes, and connective tissue. Fish testes were maintained in a regressed state for over 200 days with no change in gonosomatic index. Fish with regressed testes appeared to be in a state of “pseudohypophysectomy” with respect to gonadotropin. Pituitary replacement and a diet of 5% of the body weight per day initiated spermatogenesis and brought the regressed testes to functional maturity in one month. The results suggest that spermatogonial proliferation and the maturation of sperm have different regulatory requirements.

    Notes: We have examined the fine structure of injured, repairing and regenerating tissues of the amputated forelimbs of the adult newt: observations were made on wound epithelium, nerves, striated muscle, the regeneration blastema, connective tissues and cartilage.The wound epithelium shows little modulation from the adjacent epidermis: a subjacent glycocalyx and hemidesmosomes are initially absent. Some cells reveal phagocytic activity. As regeneration progresses, a glycocalyx, hemidesmosomes, and an adepidermal reticulum of fibers develop.Nerve fiber degeneration and regeneration lie side by side in the same nerve bundle. Myelin degeneration is evident within 24 hours; neural connective tissues loosen and fibers appear to spread apart.Striated muscle fibers display a nonuniform response to trauma, due to unequal degree of injury inflicted by amputation. The moderately and greatly injured fibers lose their distal fibril organization. There is a numerical increase in mitochondria, and occasionally a pyknotic nucleus is present. The myofiber glycocalyx appears to resist destruction, even when cell degeneration is extensive. Satellite cells have been observed intimately in contact with injured myofibers. Myogenesis is accompanied by an increase in collagen fibrillogenesis associated with adjacent fibroblasts. Many of these latter cells appear to contain intracellular fibrils: the significance of these observations are discussed, and a basis for intracellular fibrillogenesis and tropocollagen accretion is proposed.The fine structure of the regeneration blastema cell agrees with the description offered by others for the adult newt limb regeneration.Early prochondral condensation of blastema cells is described briefly.

    Notes: The elongate paired testes of Sebastodes paucispinis consist of tubules which radiate from a single longitudinal sperm duct and terminate blindly at the periphery of the testis. They are lined by an epithelium consisting of columnar cells with distinct elliptical nuclei. During fall and winter, germ cells migrate inward from the fibrous capsule of the testis and become lodged among the tubule-boundary cells of the seminiferous tubules where they mature into primary spermatogonia. Each of these undergoes several mitotic divisions to produce large cysts of secondary spermatogonia. Subsequent spermatogenic divisions within these cysts produce large sperm-filled cysts which rupture, releasing the spermatozoa into the lumina of the seminiferous tubules. Seasonal cycles of cholesterol and carbohydrate production by the tubule-boundary cells suggest that they perform the same functions as the Leydig cells (androgen production) and Sertoli cells (nutrition) of other vertebrates.The paired fusiform ovaries consist of spongy tissue surrounded by thin-walled muscular ovisacs that converge posteriorly to form a genital duct. The spongy tissue is arranged in transverse lamellae composed of fibrovascular trunks which support epithelial and ovigerous tissue. A series of oocytes (up to 150 μ in diameter) is produced continually from oogonial nests distributed throughout each lamella. Vitellogenesis begins in July and continues throughout the summer. The follicle surrounding the mature oocyte consists of a bilaminar striated vitelline membrane, two epithelial layers (granulosa and theca), and a profuse capillary network.Spermatozoa appear within the ovaries from October to March. Ovulation probably precedes fertilization since spermatozoa were never found within pre-ovulatory or post-ovulatory follicles. The follicular epithelium regresses after ovulation but the capillary beds remain intact, thus providing a mechanism for fetal-maternal exchange of gases and nitrogenous wastes.

    Notes: Branches of the coronary arteries of normal human hearts, supplying both atria and ventricles, were found by fine dissection and have been named rami atrioventriculares. They comprise atrial branches from ventricular arteries and ventricular branches from atrial arteries. Their incidence was 74% in the 50 adult individuals studied. The subjects had committed suicide with a poison which did not damage the coronary arteries. The atrioventricular branches constitute communications across the coronary sulcus, thus establishing a continuity between the atrial and the ventricular arterial supply. Therefore, there is not invariably a sharp demarcation of blood supply between atria and ventricles, as has been commonly taught. Neither atrial nor ventricular branches consist exclusively of ascending and descending branches of the coronary arteries, as has been assumed. Atrioventricular branches can play a role in collateral circulation and may, in individuals who are born with them, provide an explanation for some of the variability in signs and symptoms incidental to heart attacks.

    Notes: There were no lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes demonstrable in adult and larval Rana catesbeiana by a method that adequately demonstrated the same in mammals. Although the parenchymal arrangement in the lymphomyeloid organs is not exactly the same as in mammalian hemal nodes, nonetheless the vascular patterns of the lymph glands and jugular bodies are prima facie evidence that they function as blood-filtering organs among other probable functions. The vascular pattern of the lymph gland is that of a rete mirabile, particularly a venous portal system, inasmuch as the afferent and efferent vessels are venous in character and interposed between them is a labyrinth of sinusoids. This is not the case, though, in the adult organs. The vascular pattern of the jugular bodies is very much like the spleen, viz., artery-capillary-sinusoid-vein sequence. It is doubtful, however, if the propericardial and procoracoid bodies ever filter blood, because the smallest blood vessels in them are capillary in type Because of the absence of a well-defined capsule in some parts of the propericardial body, similarly to lymphoid follicles, especially in the mammalian gastrointestinal tract, it is probable that it filters tissue fluid. The last two organs are apparently mainly blood cell-forming organs. It is inferred from the vascular connections of the larval and the adult lymphomyeloid organs that they are not genetically related. This aspect was analyzed from earlier developmental data, but actual follow-up of the larval organs to the adult stage is still in progress.

    Notes: Hemolymph cells of Orconectes virilis were stained during the months of August to November by a variety of histological and histochemical techniques. Cells were classified as hyaline cells, small granulocytes, and large granulocytes. Presence of mitochondrial enzymes was indicated by tests for succinic dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase. Reaction to test for the hydrolytic enzyme, leucine acylnaphthylamidase was intense in the granules of the large granulocytes. The PAS reaction indicated a mucopolysaccharide at the cell membrane. Lipid was found in all three hemolymph cell types of Orconectes virilis at the time of this study.

    Notes: Histological serial sections of spleens from the adult raccoon (Procyon lotor) and woodchuck (Marmota monax) were processed for microscopic examination. Observations related to various aspects of the internal vascular pattern in the spleen of the raccoon and woodchuck demonstrated features that were characteristic of the respective animal. The spleen of the raccoon possess well-developed ellipsoid sheaths, whereas these same structures were not as prominent in the spleen of the woodchuck. The spleen of both mammals examined demonstrated the presence of an anastomosing series of venous sinuses within the red pulp tissue and may be classified as sinusal in nature.

    Notes: Detailed descriptions are presented of morphogenetic and histogenetic events occurring in the membranous and bony labyrinths, sensory areas, acoustic ganglia, and acoustic centers of the hindbrain of the chick embryo, stages 11 to 45. Major morphogenetic changes occur between stage 11 and stage 30. During this period primordial ganglionic neuroblasts are segregated from the otic epithelium and differentiate into the bipolar neuroblasts of the vestibular and cochlear ganglia, neuroblasts of the alar plate in the acoustic region of the rhombencephalon differentiate, migrate, and are organized into acoustic nuclei, and the otic cup closes to form a vesicle which undergoes complicated structural changes to become a labyrinth. Morphological events in neural structures are closely followed by structural changes in the labyrinth. Minor morphological changes continue to occur through stage 44. The histogenetic period, stage 26 to 38, is the same for all parts of the acoustic apparatus. Minor histogenetic events occur up to hatching. In this period, differentiation of ganglionic and central neurones precedes differentiation of sensory cells.

    Notes: The lymphoid cell population of thymus in the rattlesnake and king snake is similar to that of mammals. Lymphocytes occupy the interstices of an epithelial cell framework. An abudance of tonofilaments and desmosomes occupy the cytoplasm of epithelial cells with light, homogeneous nuclei and prominent nucleoli. Other epithelial cells contain phagocytized material in a dense cytoplasm which surrounds an irregular nucleus with heavily clumped chromatin. Small, granular vesicles are found within some epithelial cells.Myoid cells occur in the medullary area. In mature forms, myofibrils are arranged in a concentric fashion around the nucleus and occupy much of the cytoplasmic volume. The presence of developmental stages of these cells suggests their differentiation within the thymus of the adult animal.

    Notes: The ovary in Callosobruchus analis consists of telotrophic ovarioles with the so called nurse cells confined to one chamber at the anterior end of the ovariole. There are three types of lipids in the ovary: (1) L1 bodies that are present in the early oocytes, in the posterior prefollicular tissue and in the follicular epithelium and contain unsaturated phospholipids; (2) L2 bodies that have a complete or incomplete sheath of phospholipids and a triglyceride core; (3) L3 bodies that are formed of highly saturated triglycerides. Lipids are absent from the trophic tissue. In a mature oocyte the L1 and L2 bodies are cortical in distribution while the L3 bodies are centrally located.The mitochondria contain lipoproteins with RNA. The yolk spheres are acid mucopolysaccharides and protein in nature. The precursors of the yolk spheres appear first in the cortical coplasm and are absent from the follicular epithelium or the trophic tissue. The nucleolus of the oocyte shows evidence of extrusions that are believed to pass into the ooplasm.There are no nutritive cords connecting the trophic tissue to the oocytes; nor is there any evidence of any histochemically demonstrable nutritive material being contributed to the oocyte by the trophic tissue. The circumstantial evidence points towards a contribution of the raw materials to the oocyte by the haemolymph either through or in between the follicular epithelium in some soluble form or as submicroscopic particles.

    Notes: The origin of the internal carotid artery in the lizards Tiliqua occipitalis and Trachysaurus rugosus has been shown to be both extremely variable and complex. In the dense connective tissue investing the junction of the internal carotid artery and the summit of the carotid arch are groups of cells associated with sinusoids derved from arterioles arising from the neighboring great vessels. The conspicuous epithelioid cells in these groups resemble the mammalian carotid body glomus and amphibian α cells. Nerve fibers showing no obvious synaptic specializations pass to and over these cell groups. It is suggested that these cell groups and sinusoids are comparable to mammalian carotid body glomeruli. A similar group of cells has been described in the concavity of the summit of the fourth aortic arch. This cell group, however, gives a distinct chromaffin reaction.

    Notes: Three distinct types of mitochondria as related to shape, position, and size in the femoral muscle of the cockroach, Leucophae maderae, are described. The elongated mitochondria are interposed between the myofibrils and are oriented parallel to the long axis of the fiber. Surface indentations on these mitochondria for surrounding structures indicate their permanent position. The oval mitochondria are situated under the sarcolemma. These organelles have a parallel orientation to the underlying muscle fiber but no alignment with respect to the “sarcomeric repeat” and thereby suggest that this type is mobile. The Y-shaped mitochondria are observed in the intermyofibrillar sarcoplasm. Their paired processes are on each side of the Z-disc and imply that the Y-shaped mitochondria are a sessile type. The cristae in all three categories of mitochondria display a tightly packed and complex arrangement.

    Notes: The labellar hairs of the blowfly Phormia regina Meigen are arranged in a definite pattern. Topographically they can be divided into the following groups: prickles, bristles, intermediate hairs, large hairs, largest hairs, marginal hairs. On the basis of dimensions they fall into four groups. The total number of hairs is somewhat variable. The mean for males is 122.65 hairs on one lobe; for females, 128.82 hairs. The interpseudotracheal papillae vary both in position and number. The mean for males is 65.9 papillae; for females, 67.65. The labial nerve divides, in the labellum, into four principal branches which consist of proximal processes of the sense cells of all hairs and interpseudotracheal papillae. Preparations stained by methylene blue revealed numerous multipolar cells. It was impossible to decide with certainty whether they are nerve cells, perilemma cells, or tracheal cells. They did not stain with silver. Numerous free endings revealed in preparations by use of Kenyon's method appeared to be the finest tracheoles seen on preparations stained by the method of Romanes.

    Notes: The development of neuromasts was studied in two species of teleosts, Cirrhina mrigala Ham. Buch. and Ophicephalus punctatus Bloch, and the findings are presented and discussed. It has been discovered, in the course of this investigation, that a neuromast arises by a process of invagination  -  a fact hitherto not reported. The occurrence of the dorsal lateral line and the accessory lateral line of the trunk, in addition to the main lateral line, has also been reported for the first time for teleosts, although known for other bony fishes.

    Notes: In an attempt to understand the factors involved in morphogenesis of a complex cell like a scale or bristle, the fine structure of the normal development of bristle cells in Drosophila melanogaster (Oregon R) has been studied and compared with that of the mutants sn3 and Sb. In the development of the normal bristle rounded bundles of longitudinally oriented fibrils lie just beneath the cell surface at regularly spaced intervals. Fiber bundles constitute about 20% of the cross sectional area. The cytoplasmic surface between these bundles is active in enveloping the nerve fiber associated with the bristle and in sending out cytoplasmic processes associated with which the longitudinally oriented bristle ridges form. Singed bristles are bent and twisted and the fiber bundles are present as flattened bands constituting only about 5% of the cross-sectional area. In Sb mutants the total cross-sectional area of fiber bundle material is the same as that in Oregon R, but fiber bundles are smaller and more numerous, being distributed over the larger surface of this thicker and shorter bristle. They constitute only 7% of the cross-sectional area of the bristle. In Sn3Sb mutants characteristics of each gene are exaggerated and an extremely short, wide, and irregular bristle is formed.

    Notes: A theoretical analysis is made of the mechanical advantages of exoskeletons and endoskeletons. More complicated and realistic loading systems are considered than have been by previous authors. For all cases involving static loading, an exoskeleton would seem to be advantageous, but sometimes the advantage is quite small. If impact is considered, the advantage of exoskeletons becomes very much reduced, even on theoretical calculations; and it is likely that in life the advantage may be converted to a disadvantage, particularly in large active animals such as vertebrates.

    Notes: Histological examination of the fibrous and cellular connective tissue components of the periodontal ligament in the Caiman and the Alligator reveals the presence of reticular fibrillae, collagenic, elastic, and oxytalan fibers, as well as fibrocytes, osteoblasts, cementoblasts and epithelial rests. The oxytalan fibers differentiated by the peracetic acid aldehyde-fuchsin method are most numerous in the coronal region, radiating from the primary cementum into the periodontal ligament a short distance. Oxytalan fibers in fewer numbers are found interspersed between the oblique and the horizontal principal fiber bundles. Inasmuch as the crocodilian teeth have continuous replacement and thus a relatively short functional life, the oxytalan fibers of the Caiman and the Alligator appear to be proportionally fewer in number than they are in the mammalian periodontal tissues. The presence of the oxytalan fibers and epithelial rests in the Order Crocodilia (Crocodilia) adds to the number of dental structures shared with the Class Mammalia (Mammalia) (mammals) such as a stellate reticulum, a primary and secondary cementum and a periodontal ligament. This furnishes additional histological evidence for evaluation of the phylogenetic position of this group.

    Notes: In the column of hydra, tissues continually move away from a region located just underthe whorl of tentacles. Above this subtentacular region, tissues proceed into the hypostome and tentacles; below it tissues pass into the buds or continue down the stalk. These movements represent a steady state pattern of tissue renewal in which column growth is balanced by tissue loss at the body extremities. But the existence of a subtentacular zone in which tissue appears stationary does not necessarily indicate that growth is restrictedto this region, as is commonly stated.The body column of hydra can be viewed as an expanding cylinder whose elongation is balanced by tissue loss at the two ends. In such a body there must be one region from whichtissue appears to emanate, regardless of how growth is distributed along the cylinder. Only the rates at which tissues move will be characteristic of the underlying growthpattern. In Hydra littoralis, the measured rates of tissue movement down the gastric column are consistent with the distributions of mitotic figures, which indicate that growth is spread out along the column.

    Notes: Light and electron microscopical studies allow a descriptive account to be given of he morphogenesis of the egg chamber of Drosophila melanogaster. The study demonstrates that the mitotic products of a single cystoblast generate a branching chain of 16 inter-connected cystocytes. Two specific cystocytes enter meiotic prophase, while the rest become nurse cells. The two pro-oocytes form synaptinemal complexes in their nuclei. However, one of the two cells later switches back into the nurse cell developmental pathway. The elongation of the synaptinemal complexes is described, and estimates are made of the time involved in their formation. These complexes continue to be synthesized long after the DNA replication which gives the oocyte its 4C DNA content. This finding implies that at least some genetic crossing over follows DNA replication. Evidence is presented that cells undergoing crossing over are most efficient in repairing radiation-induced chromosomal breaks. Suggestions are given as to the mechanisms by which (1) cell division is inhibited once 16 cystocytes are formed, (2) the future cleavage planes of cystocytes are programmed, (3) the pro-oocytes are differentiated from nurse cells, and (4) the oocyte is chosen from the twin pro-oocytes. The contrasting behaviors of the oocyte and nurse cell nucleoli are described. During oogenesis nucleolar synthesis of ribosomal RNAs is suppressed in the oocyte and concurrently stimulated in the nurse cells. It follows that the nurse nuclei are the major sources of the prodigious quantities of ribosomes found in the ooplasm of the mature oocyte.

    Notes: A study of the ingestion of particulate matter from the pallial space located between the shell and the outer surface of the mantle of Isognomon alatus and Pinctada radiata was undertaken with the aid of the electron microscope. For this purpose colloidal thorium dioxide (thorotrast) was introduced into the pallial space for periods of 1-5 days after which time the mantle was excised and prepared for examination with the electron microscope. After 24 hours thorotrast micelles were observed in the pallial space, on the surface of the microvilli, in small pinocytotic vesicles between the bases of the microvilli, in vacuoles undergoing coalescence and finally in large dense bodies (lysosomes). Amoebocytes in the pallial space also participate in the removal of particulate matter in a manner similar to that described for the surface epithelium. During active ingestion the Golgi apparatus changes from a vesicular to a lamellar form. The method of ingestion observed in the surface epithelia and the amoebocytes is similar to the ingestion of protein and other particulate material reported for a variety of vertebrate tissues.

    Notes: The proventriculus of White Leghorn chick embryos (stages 29-45) newly-hatched chicks, and adult chickens were frozen, sectioned in a cryostat and treated histochemically to identify localizations of alkaline and acid phosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase, 5-nucleotidase, nucleotide-diphosphatase, non-specific glycerophosphatase, glucose-6-phosphatase, non-specific esterase and succinic dehydrogenase. Ribonucleic acid, proteins and acid mucopolysaccharides were identified in tissues fixed in FAA.Acid phosphatase, nucleotide-diphosphatase, adenosine triphosphatase, succinic dehydrogenase, ribonucleic acid and proteins were present in the cells of the deep glands at all stages of development. Alkaline phosphatase and 5-nucleotidase were found only in mesenchymal derivatives of the proventriculus. After the chick begins swallowing and digesting albumen, enzymatic activity increased and non-specific esterase became very reactive.The surface epithelium is covered with a mucous coat. Ribonucleic acid, non-specific esterase, acid phosphatase and nucleotide-diphosphatase were localized in the basal portions of the epithelial cells. The functional significance of these different patterns is discussed.

    Notes: Adult newts, Triturus viridescens, were treated with from 1.0-10.0 μg/g body weight of actinomycin D one day before amputation of both forelimbs. Mean survival times ranged from over 50 days in newts treated with 1.0 μg/g to 13.2 days in animals given 10.0 μg/g body weight of actinomycin. Low doses little altered the course of regeneration, but animals treated with over 2.0 μg/g never formed blastemas. In another series, animals were given doses of 2.5 μg/g body weight of actinomycin D at intervals from 14 days before to 30 days after amputation. It was found that certain signs of toxicity (loss of equilibrium) are related to the time of administration of the drug whereas others (hemorrhage into the limb stumps) are restricted to a definite phase of the regenerative process. Early administration of actinomycin completely inhibits regeneration whereas later treatment results in a considerably lessened effect. The postamputational stages which are basically destructive in nature are not noticeably affected by actinomycin D, but the phases of dedifferentiation, blastema formation and redifferentiation are strongly inhibited.

    Notes: This study is concerned with the forms of the tectorial membrane in the lizard ear and its manner of attachment to the ciliary tufts of the hair cells. These structures and their variations were observed in 20 species representing eight families of lizards.Three forms of tectorial membrane were found, a continuous form that extends throughout the length of the auditory papilla, an abbreviated form that reaches the papilla only in one region, and a dendritic form that is particularly narrow at first and then branches extensively to supply all the hair cells.Occasionally the lower edge of the tectorial membrane makes direct connections with the hair tufts. More often there are special connecting structures between the membrane and the hair tufts. Seven types of these structures were identified, as follows: (1) simple fibers, (2) open network, (3) heavy network, (4) fiber plate, (5) finger processes, (6) sallets, and (7) remote connections. These types of tectorial connections are described and illustrated.

    Notes: The effects of 72 hours of dehydration on the hypothalamo-neuro-hypophyseal system have been compared in three avian species which originate from different climatic habitats but belong to the same genus, Lonchura. In L. malacca, which is an inhabitant of swampy, non-arid regions, the neurosecretory nuclei are activated and there is a depletion of neurosecretory material from the nuclear regions and neurosecretory tract, as well as from the neurohypophysis. In L. punctulata, an inhabitant of woods and grasslands, the supraoptic cells show signs of activation. To some extent, a depletion of the neurosecretory material is observed from the neurohypophysis. In the fibrous layer the continuity of the neurosecretory material along the tract is not maintained to such an extent as in the control. In L. malabrica, which lives in semi-arid regions, there is some activation of the supraoptic nuclei but there is little to no depletion of the aldehyde fuchsin-positive material from the neurohypophysis and the tract leading to it. The results of this investigation are indicative of a correlation between the neurosecretory mechanism and ecologic adaptation.

    Notes: The development of Stannius corpuscles in the teleost Colisa lalia is described. Certain cells of the mesonephric tubules differentiate and proliferate to form buds which evaginate and finally become separated from the structure of origin. The separated cellular masses undergo further histologic differentiation to attain the adult structures.The corpuscles in C. laha, in contrast to some other teleosts, develop only from mesonephric tubules. A possible explanation for the different types of distribution of Stannius corpuscles in teleosts is suggested, and the possible homology of these structures with part of the adrenal cortex or higher vertebrates is discussed.

    Notes: A detailed gross anatomical study of the innervation of the respiratory muscles was made on twenty mature, male, Single Comb White Leghorn chickens. The aim was to demonstrate the general pattern and degree of terminal branching of the intercostal and lumbar nerves that innervate respiratory muscles.The point of entry for all nerves was on the medial face of the proximal third of the belly of the muscles, except for the transversus abdominis and costopulmonary muscles. The nerves were not always accompanied by blood vessels at the point of entry but both were invariably related at their terminal branches within the muscle belly and the tendon or aponeurosis. Within the muscle, primary, secondary, tertiary, and quarternary subdivisions of nerves coursed parallel to the muscle fibers, but some were tortuous. Plexus formation and/or segmental nerve anastomosis was most evident in strongly active expiratory and inspiratory muscles, i.e., all abdominal muscles and the m. costisternalis pars major.A craniocaudal gradient in the size and development of the contractile mass of the intercostal muscles was observed. The mm. intercostales interni increased in size in the caudal intercostal spaces, while the reverse was true for the mm. intercostales externi. Variable forms and sizes of lateroventral abdominal muscles were observed and the m. rectus abdominis was consistently present.The mm. intercostales interni and externi received branches from both the nn. intercostales interni and externi.

    Notes: The morphology and possible functional significance of cytoplasmic filaments associated with herpes-like viruses of the frog renal carcinoma is described. Filaments, invariability arranged in elongated bundles or sheaths, individually measure approximately 30 mμ in diameter, and are composed of finely granular, proteinaceous material. During the viral maturation sequence, this material is believed to be deposited on the surface of the capsid, thereby possibly providing the virus with a defensive coating prior to ergression from the cell.

    Notes: The ctenophore, Vallicula multiformis (V. multiformis) (Rankin), can reproduce asexully by segregating pieces of tissue from its periphery. These pieces of tissue then differentiate to form new individuals. In 99% of the cases the pieces of tissue form normal animals; however in 1% of the cases they form “half animals” which have only one set of tentacles (the animal normally has two sets of tentacles). V. multiformis can also regenerate its apical organ, and one or both sets of tentacles.By cutting V. multiformis in half through the apical organ along the sagittal plane it is possible to produce “half animals” in 30% of the cases. “Half animals” can reproduce asexually. In 6% of the cases the new individuals which form from them differentiate as “half animals.” A part of a “half animal” that contains an apical organ will regenerate as a “half animal” while a part that does not contain an apical organ will regenerate as a normal individual. If one removes the apical organ from a “half animal,” it will regenerate it. A part of this animal containing the regenerated apical organ will regenerate as a “half animal.” If one removes the apical organ from a “half animal” and replaces it with the apical organ of a normal individual, the part containing the apical organ will regenerate as a normal individual. The results of these experiments are discussed in terms of possible mechanisms that control the process of regeneration.

    Notes: Esophagi of White Leghron chick embryos, six days to hatching, were fixed in 5% glutaraldehyde in a cacodylate-sucrose buffer, postfixed in 1% OsO4, dehydrated and embedded in Araldite. Tissues were sectioned with glass knives and viewed with a Philips EM 100C. The epithelium in early stages of development is characterized by small intercellular spaces, few cell processes and few desmosomes. In contrast the differentiated epithelium contains numerous cell processes, large intercellular spaces and numerous desmosomes. Mucin appeared in the mucous glands at 17 days.

    Epidermal morphology and sloughing frequency in normal and prolactin treated Anolis carolinensis (Iguanidae, lacertilia) (1967)

    Notes: The morphology of the epidermal generations throughout the sloughing cycle of Anolis carolinensis is essentially the same as that described for other squamates, whether studied in control or hormone-injected animals. Readily identifiable granules in the clear layer of this and other lizard species emphasize the eventual hardening of this layer prior to its separation from the subjacent Oberhautchen, which brings about sloughing. Eosinophils are described for the first time in the lacunar tissue of lizard, but their functional role remains problematical. Daily 25 μg injections of prolactin (alone or in combination with gonadotropins) raise the frequency of sloughing by shortening the resting phase as compared with controls and animals receiving 1.0 I.U./day injections of gonadotropins. The duration of the proliferation-renewal phase and the pattern of histological changes occurring therein is unchanged by experimental treatments. The results show that neither endogenous nor exogenous gonadotropins affect the sloughing frequency, but exogenous prolactin produces a similar effect to that described for thyroxine. Although the mechanisms of action are unknown, the results provide another example of the cutaneous action of prolactin in vertebrates.

    Notes: Catostomus macrocheilus, a sucker, and Poecilia reticulata, a live-bearer, are subjected to dissimilar mechanical stresses while most of their bony structures are forming. Osteogenesis occurs in the sucker when it is a free-living larva, whereas in the livebearer it occurs intrafollicularly. The first-formed bones ofboth species are those that meet functional demands and are subjected to the greatest stresses. These are the movable bones associated with the acts of respiration and feeding, and some of the axial bones. The cranial roof is the last to calcify. The primary differences in osteogenesis of the two species, such as in the vertebral column and caudal fin, can be correlated with differences in stress. Surface forces on calcifiable tissue perhapsassist in the deposition of calcium salts.

    Notes: An electron microscopic study of the functional mesonephros in the 8-day chick embryo revealed the following features of the nephron:Proximal tubule cells. Nuclei are spherical and basally oriented. Mitochondri are round or elongate with clear-cut cristae. Intramitochondrial granules occur sporadically. The Golgi complex, lying adjacent to the nucleus in apical cytoplasm, consists of flattened lamellae and associated secretion droplets. The cytoplasm is filled with ribosomes which occasionally are spiral in arrangement. Characteristic microvilli project from the apical end of cells. Basal regions of the cells are bounded by a homogeneous basement membrane. Adjacent epithelial cells are separated at their base by wide intercellular spaces. Interdigitating processes between cells are common in this area. At their apices, cells are joined by junctional complexes.Distal tubule cells. Nuclei are round and centrally located. Microvilli are sparse and usually absent. When present, they are short and blunt. Cells are closely allied at their base and joined tightly at their apices. Interdigitating processes are not as prevalent as in proximal tubules. Infoldings of the plasma membrane are prominent and compartmentalize mitochondria.Glomerulus. Endothelial cells are elongate, bordering the capillary lumen, and their membranes contain definite slit-pores. Epithelial pedicels extend from the cell body, intergiditate with each other and rest on the capillary basement membrane. The latter consists of three layers resembling those in adults.The similarity in the fine structural characteristics between chick mesonephros and adult metanepros corroborates the holonephric theory of vertebrate kidney evolution.

    Notes: The paper deals with the development of the salivary gland system in Melipona quadrifasciata anthidioides, which begins in the prepupal stage. The silk glands degenerate by autolysis at the end of the larval stage. Degeneration is characterized by cytoplasmic vacuolization and pycnosis of the nuclei of the secretory cells. The glandular secretory portion of degenerated silk glands separates from the excretory ducts. The salivary glands develop from the duct of the larval silk glands. The thoracic salivary glands develop from the ducts of the secretory tubules and the head salivary glands from the terminal excretory duct. The mandibular glands appear in the prepupa as invaginations of mandibular segments, and their differentiation to attain the adult configuration occurs during pupation. The hypopharyngeal glands have their origin from evaginations of the ventral anterior portion of the pharynx. A long tubule first appears with walls formed by more than one cellular layer. Then some cells separate from the lumen of the duct, staying attached to it by a cuticular channel in part intracellular. The initial duct constitutes the axial duct, in which the channel of the secretory cells opens. During the development of salivary and mandibular glands, they recapitulate primitive stages of the phylogeny of the bees. During the development of salivary glands system, mitosis accounts for only part of the growth. Most of the growth occurs by increase in size of cells rather than by cell division. In brown-eyed and pigmented pupae six days before emergence, the salivary gland system is completely developed, although not yet functioning.

    Notes: The caudal anatomy (caudal skeleton, musculature, vascularization, innervation, and urohypophysis) and swimming behavior of three clupeiform and three perciform fishes: Elops hawaiensis (Cupeiformes: Elopidae), Oncorhynchus nerka (Cupeiformes: Salmonidae), Chanos chanos (Clupeiformes: Chanidae), Kuhlia sandvicensis (Perciformes: Kuhlidae), Apogon menesemus (Perciformes: Apogonidae), and Gnathanodon speciousus (Perciformes: Carangidae), were studdied. The taxonomic significance of caudal structures was determined and evaluated by detailed examination of differences in caudal anatomy. An interpretation of functional significance of these differences was attempted by relating them to observed differences in swimming behavior. The swimming behavior was studied by the observation of swimming activities of fish while resting or cruising and while feeding in the aquarium, and by an analysis of each frame of an 8 mm movie film of swimming activities.There are certain consistent and basic differences between all three species of the order Clupeiformes and all three species of the order Perciformes in respect to caudal structures. Although certain caudal structures show overlapping in number and/or complexity of arrangement, they seem to indicate more complex structural organization in Clupeiformes than Perciformes. The differences confirm the conclusion of others that the order Clupeiformes is more “primitive” than the order Perciformes.With respect to caudal structures of the three clupeiform species studied, E. hawaiensis is the most “primitive” and, of the three perciform species studied, K. sandvicensis is the most “primitive.”Caudal structural variations from one species to another are related to the mode of adaptation to swimming as well as to the evolutionary status of the species.

    Notes: A two-stage procedure has been used to obtain hemopoietic spleen colonies derived from single precursor cells containing radiation-induced chromosomal markers. Of a total of 46 colonies examined, 17 were found to contain cells with abnormal karyotypes. In each of the 17 marked colonies, 90% or more of the dividing cells in the colony carried the same marker. Cell suspensions prepared from each of the individual colonies were tested for their content of dividing cells possessing recognizable differentiated functions. Metaphase cells with peroxidase-positive granules in their cytoplasm were considered to be members of the granulopoietic series, while metaphase cells which contained Fe55 were considered to be members of the erythropoietic series. Results were obtained for 12 of the marked colonies, and in nine of these, the percentage of metaphases lacking the marker was less than the percentage of metaphases which were scored as erythropoietic, and also was less than the percentage of metaphases scored as granulopoietic. This is the result which would be expected if the marker were present in both erythropoietic and granulopoietic cells. These results provide support for the view that colony forming hemopoietic stem cells are multipotent, and that differentiation along more than one pathway can occur during the formation of macroscopic splenic colonies.

    Notes: Reaction of the slowly penetrating organic mercurial compound parachloromercuribenzene sulfonate (PCMBS) with intact erythrocytes has been characterized. Addition of concentrations of PCMBS which result in binding within the interior of the membrane of more than 1.9 × 10-18 moles/cell produces alterations in Na+ and K+ permeability, but does not affect choline permeability. However, the increased cation permeability is observed only after a lag period of over two hours. After ten hours, a spontaneous slow “recovery” to normal rates of K+ leakage occurs at 25°C but not at 2°C. Subsequent to the effects on cation balance, increasing degrees of hemolysis occur, interpreted as colloid osmotic lysis. The relationships between the binding of the agent and its effects are as follows: a small, rapid initial uptake does not affect cation permeability; the subsequent slower uptake is associated with increased leakage of K+ and Na+; and the recovery at 25°C is associated with desorption of about half of the PCMBS due to competition by soluble thiol substances released into the medium from the cells. Desorption and “recovery” can be mimicked at any time by addition of small amounts of protein in the medium. The half of the PCMBS that cannot be desorbed is assumed to be bound by the hemoglobin inside the cell. The sulfhydryl groups involved in control of cation permeability constitute only a fraction of the total within the membrane (4-18%). They are located within the interior of the membrane separated from the medium and from the interior of the cell by diffusion barriers to PCMBS.

    Notes: Cultured Chinese hamster cells incorporated radioactivity from glucosamine-1-14C into surface sialic acid and into trypsin-removable material distinct from the surface sialoglycans. Cells prelabeled with glucosamine-1-14C and then transferred to medium containing unlabeled glucosamine progressively lost counts to the medium for many hours. Such chase experiments suggested a more rapid turnover of trypsinremovable material than of surface-bound sialic acid. Further studies of the regeneration of surface sialic acid showed that the actinomycin D-resistant portion of the process involved emergence of an intracellular precursor onto the cell surface. An earlier portion of the process was inhibited by actinomycin D, and at least three steps were inhibited by puromycin or cycloheximide.

    Notes: Ribonucleic acid polymerase and deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase have been partially purified from bovine lymphosarcoma, lymph node, and thymus. An examination of the deoxyribonucleic acid requirements of the two enzymes indicates that “native” deoxyribonucleic acid is the preferred template for ribonucleic acid synthesis; heat-denatured deoxyribonucleic acid is considerably less active. The primer requirements for deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis differ: “native” deoxyribonucleic acid is usually inactive, while denatured deoxyribonucleic acid is active. The two enzymes also differ in pH optima and in their requirements for metal cofactors.

    Notes: Eggs of the sea urchins, Arbacia punctulata and Lytechinus variegatus were observed with a centrifuge microscope. The protoplasmic viscosity calculated from the displacement velocity of the nucleus in a centrifugal field is about 30 poises. The surface forces of the unfertilized egg, which were determined from the relationship between the deformations of the egg in centrifugal fields and the magnitudes of the centrifugal forces, are 0.046 dyne/cm in Arbacia and 0.087 dyne/cm in Lytechinus (mean values). Both of these values increase as the deformation of the egg increases. The cleavage plane of the first cleavage of the egg in the centrifugal field (35-140 × g) is parallel to the direction of the centrifugal force. The flattening of the fertilized egg in a constant centrifugal field changes during development, probably owing to the change in the surface force. The flattening attains a minimum shortly before the onset of cleavage and another minimum during the cleavage, corresponding to a peak of the surface before the cleavage and another peak during the cleavage.

    Notes: Resting membrane potentials of isolated frog sartorius muscles were measured under a variety of conditions using intracellular glass microelectrodes. Muscle cells depolarized by the addition of 5.0 or 10.0 mM KCl to the bathing Ringer solution can be repolarized some 5 to 10 mV by the substitution of an equivalent amount of K-aspartate for KCl in the presence of 2.0 mM Mg++. The repolarization produced by this method persists when the muscle is again placed in the initial KCl solution, thus eliminating the possibility that the hyperpolarization is due to the reduction of chloride in the bathing medium. If for some reason the resting membrane potential of the muscle fibers is considerably below (less negative than) the normal level of 92 mV reported for muscles bathed in 2.5 mM Ringer solution, the substitution of 2.5 mM K-aspartate for the 2.5 mM KCl and the addition of 2.0 mM Mg-aspartate to the Ringer solution will, within 15 minutes, repolarize the fiber to the normal level. Magnesium ions alone will not produce the observed repolarization nor can it be attributed to a reduction in the activity of the potassium in the Ringer solution.

    Notes: The effects of actinomycin D, puromycin, and p-fluorophenylalanine on the activation of glyconeogenesis in Tetrahymena were studied.The extent of activation of glyconeogenesis in cultures containing inhibitor was as great as or greater than in the controls, as was the uptake of tracer levels of acetate into glycogen. These increases occurred despite a partial or complete inhibition of synthesis of isocitrate lyase, a glyconeogenic enzyme in Tetrahymena. Washed cells from these cultures could convert tracer or substrate levels of acetate to glycogen at enhanced rates. When glyconeogenesis was activated in starved cells in the presence of inhibitor, there was a negligible increase in the amount of isocitrate lyase, but a significant increase in the rate of glyconeogenesis. The data indicate that glyconeogenesis in Tetrahymena can be activated in the absence of enzyme synthesis.

    Notes: The study of an effect of exogenous thymidine on the mitotic cycle demonstrated that a 30 minute exposure to unlabeled and to tritiated thymidine at a concentration of 2.9 × 10-6 M was sufficient to cause a significant increase in the mitotic index of root meristem cells of Haplopappus gracilis. An analysis of the data revealed that this was due to the prolongation of metaphase rather than to an increase in the actual number of cells entering division.

    Notes: Acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, and lactic dehydrogenase activities have been compared in normal human diploid cell strains and in SV40-transformed heteroploid cell lines derived from them. A higher level of acid phosphatase activity was observed in diploid cultures derived from adult lung than in cultures derived from fetal lung of similar passage levels. The alkaline phosphatase activity of normal diploid fibroblasts was significantly higher than that of SV40-transformed cell lines derived from them. Generally, the lactic dehydrogenase activities of all these cell cultures were similar.Human diploid cells in culture “age,” in the sense that their ability to proliferate decreases with time during serial subcultivation. Evaluation of the activities of these three enzymes during the “aging” process showed that, although alkaline phosphatase and lactic dehydrogenase activities were similar in “young” and “senescent” cells, acid phosphatase showed a small but significant increase in the senescent cells.

    Notes: Ribonuclease was shown to reduce the electrophoretic mobility of a line of cultured mammalian cells (RPMI no. 41), and Ehrlich ascites tumour cells. No reduction was detected in the case of human, mouse or embryonic chick erythrocytes. These data, taken with the various controls, support the hypothesis that RNA is a structural component of the peripheries of two types of cells, but not of erythrocytes from three species.Calcium-binding was studied in RPMI no. 41 cells, Ehrlich ascites tumour cells, and human and mouse eryhrocytes, by measurement of reduction in cellular electrophoretic mobility in suspending solutions containing various concentrations of calcium chloride. The effect of treating cells with neuraminidase and/or ribonuclease on calcium-binding was also studied. The results suggest that less calcium binds to the carboxyl groups of peripheral sialic acids than to the phosphates of peripheral, structural RNA. However, calcium apparently binds most avidly to as yet unidentified anionic sites.

    Notes: Both two-wavelength microspectrophotometry of Feulgen-stained whole nuclei and autoradiography of H3-thymidine incorporation by giant salivary chromosomes in Drosophila virilis demonstrate a net decrease in the relative rate of salivary DNA synthesis during the late third instar and prepupal stages of development. Amounts of DNA-Feulgen per nucleus were distributed into several classes, the means of which closely approximated values projected as geometric multiples of the basic somatic DNA level estimated from hemocyte nuclei of the same larvae. Comparison of DNA polytene class frequencies showed no statistical difference between male larvae of different development stages, although female prepupae showed a greater frequency of nuclei in higher polytene classes when compared to male prepupae of the same age. Comparison of chromosomal H3-thymidine incorporation with previously described H3-histidine incorporation suggests that the amino acid labeling, which reaches a maximum during the prepupal period, has a physiological significance distinct from chromosomal endoreplication.

    Notes: The light microsomal fraction was isolated from homogenates of rabbit and bullfrog gastric mucosa. On examination with the electron microscope, the light microsomes appear as tubular membranous structures with morphology and dimensions similar to the elements of the smooth-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum seen in intact oxyntic cells. A K+-stimulated, Mg++-requiring p-nitrophenylphosphatase has been demonstrated in the gastric microsomes. Neither Na+ nor ouabain (10-6-10-3 M) altered the K+-stimulated phosphatase. SCN- was not very effective as an inhibitor of the gastric microsomal phosphatase, in contrast to the effect of this anion on the ATPase activity; however, the gastric phosphatase as well as the ATPase are destroyed by phospholipase C, thus showing the lipoprotein nature of these enzymes. Kinetics of the K+ activation of the microsomal phosphatase suggest that the K+-PNPP complex is the active substrate for the enzymic reaction. Rb+, NH4 + and Cs+ will substitute to some degree for K+ as an activator of the microsomal phosphatase. It is pointed out that K+ is an essential requirement for HCl secretion in intact gastric mucosa and the replacement of K+ with Rb+, Cs+ and NH4+ is discussed. The K+-stimulated phosphatase presented in this paper may play a role in the H+ secretion process.

    Notes: Cultured mammalian cells (RPMI no. 41) in parasynchronous growth were treated, at different stages of the mitotic cycle, with neuraminidase and ribonuclease, separately and sequentially, and their electrophoretic mobilities determined. Changes in the electrophoretic mobility of these cells are probably mainly due to variations in the density of negatively charged groups susceptible to neuraminidase, although variations in groups susceptible to ribonuclease may occur. It is suggested that the observed variations in electrophoretic mobility of different cells may be due to differences in the relative lengths of different life-cycle phases. Where G2 phase is relatively long or G1 relatively short the cell populations will hve higher mean electrophoretic mobilities.

    Notes: Significantly more calcium per gram protein was found in a relatively pure granule fraction isolated from fresh bovine adrenal medulla than in predominantly mitochondrial fractions isolated from the same tissue. Sixty-four and 55% of the calcium associated with chromaffin granule and mitochondrial fractions, respectively, was released into the supernatant upon lowering the tonicity of the medium. The per cent calcium released by this procedure was significantly greater for granules than for mitochondria (p 〈 0.05). The amount of calcium per gram protein released into the supernatant also was greater in granule fractions than in mitochondrial fractions (p 〈 0.05). These data, coupled with a previous report that 10-3 M EDTA does not markedly decrease the calcium content of whole granules, indicate that the excess calcium of the granule fractions relative to the mitochondrial fractions is maintained within the particles of that fraction. The functional significance of the relatively large amount of calcium in chromaffin granules is not clear.The presence of 150 mM sodium chloride or potassium chloride decreases calcium binding by granule or mitochondrial fragments incubated in 2.2 mM calcium chloride in 0.2 M Tris, pH 7, by about 50%. EDTA, 10-3 M, removes all but a small residual of the calcium associated with the granule or mitochondrial fragments whereas lowering the concentration of Tris increases calcium binding to about the same extent in both these subcellular fractions. The calcium-binding properties of granule and mitochondrial fragments therefore appear to be quantitatively and qualitatively similar. Inhibition of catecholamine release by relatively high concentrations of sodium may be explained by competitive inhibition of calcium binding. Calcium binding by granule fragments decreases with an increase in hydrogen ion concentration.

    Notes: Attempts to synchronize the BHK21 hamster cell C-13 and its polyoma-transformed derivative P-183 with excess thymidine resulted in the observation that the parent cell line could be readily synchronized but the transformed derivative could not. Differences in the growth pattern indicate that excess thymidine (10 mM) stops progress of the virus-transformed derivative at all stages in the life cycle rather than exclusively in S. The data are suggestive but do not establish that the difference is a result of the presence of the virus genome.
