    Notes: Abstract In the developmentalist era,industrialization has simultaneously transformedagriculture and degraded its natural and culturalbase. Food production and consumption embodies thecontradictory aspects of this transformation. Thispaper argues that the crisis of development hasgenerated two basic responses: (1) the attempt toredefine development as a global project, includingharnessing biotechnology to resolve the food securityquestion, and (2) a series of countermovementsattempting to simultaneously reassert the value oflocal, organic foods, and challenge the attempt on thepart of food corporations and national and globalinstitutions to subject the food question to marketsolutions. It is proposed that the power of food liesin its material and symbolic functions of linkingnature, human survival, health, culture and livelihoodas a focus of resistance to corporate takeover of lifeitself.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Des cartes tissulaires ainsi que les caractéristiques et propriétés cellularires ont été relevées au cours d'une étude de microscopie optique du développement de la calotte cranienne de souris, avant la naissance, jusqu'au 26ème jour. Les population d'ostéocytes de moitiés droite et gauche de ces calottes sont semblables, mais décroissent avec le temps dans un volume donné. De petites plages limitées de matrice osseuse se colorent pour le phosphate (ou carbonate) de façon plus nette que la matrice environnante, qui se colore légèrement après coupe. Les divers types ostéocytaires se distinguent par les réactions histochimiques du calcium et du phosphate, qui sont associés dans les cellules osseuses de façon complexe, variant dans le temps et la localisation. Ces deux constituants ne sont pas toujours présent dans les cellules des diverses régions, ou dans la même localisation dans un type cellulaire donné. En tenant compte des changements visible dans les divers types cellulaires avec le temps, dans des régions données, une hypothèse de “charge” et “décharge” cellulaire est émise.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Anläßlich einer mikroskopischen Studie über die Entwicklung des Mäuse-Calvariums von der Pränatalperiode bis zu 26 Tagen nach der Geburt wurden auch die Gewebetopographie sowie die Charakteristica und Eigenschaften der Zellen aufgezeichnet. Die Osteocyten-populationen in der linken und rechten Hälfte des Calvariums waren sich gleich, nahmen jedoch bei einem gegebenen Volumen mit der Zeit ab. Kleine isolierte Stellen von Knochen-matrix konnten leichter auf Ph sphat (oder Carbonat) angefärbt werden, als die umgebende Matrix, welche sich wohl am Schnitt, nicht aber am ganzen Stück färben ließ. Die verschiedenen Typen von Osteocyten wurden aufgrund histochemischer Calcium- und Phosphat-reaktionen bestimmt. Calcium und Phosphat waren innerhalb der Knochenzellen auf komplexe Art miteinander verbunden, die je nach Zeit und Lagerung unterschiedlich war. Zellen in abgetrennten Bereichen enthielten nicht immer Calcium und Phosphat und beide waren bei einer bestimmten Zellenart auch nicht immer am gleichen Ort abgelagert. Aufgrund der an ausgewählten Stellen beobachteten, zeitlich bedingten Veränderungen innerhalb der verschiedenen Zelltypen wird vorgeschlagen, daß es sich dabei um eine Sequenz von “Ladung” und “Entladung” der Zellen handelt.
    Notes: Abstract Tissue maps, and cell characteristics and properties were recorded in a study under the optical microscope of the development of the mouse calvarium from pre-natal to 26 days. Osteocyte populations in left and right halves of the calvarium were similar, but decreased with time for a given volume. Small isolated areas of bone matrix stained for phosphate (or carbonate) in a more readily available form from that in the surrounding matrix, which could be stained after sectioning but failed to stain in bulk. Osteocyte types were defined on the basis of histochemical methods for calcium and phosphate, which were associated inside bone cells in a complex manner, varying with time and position. The calcium and phosphate were not always present within the cell in discrete regions and were not always present in the same place in a given cell type. On the basis of a study of changes in cell types with time in selected sites a sequence of “loading” and “unloading” is proposed.

    Notes: Abstract Mucopolysaccharides (MPS) and collagen have been analyzed in different types of cartilage and some other tissues at various stages of prenatal and postnatal human development. The concentration of the chondroitin sulfate-type MPS increased from the 38th embryonal day, the 6-sulfate exceeding in amount the 4-sulfate. The increase in collagen concentration was accompanied by a decrease in the proportion of neutral salt-soluble collagen. There was no accumulation of chondroitin sulfates in the calvaria. A maximal concentration of MPS of a low molecular weight occurred in the skin and in the ear pinna after the 10th prenatal week. Postnatally, the MPS-concentration in the iliac crest and in the tibial articular cartilages decreased gradually, the highest values being reached in the newborn; the collagen-concentration showed an approximately reciprocal course.

    Notes: Summary When the complexity of a developmental system evolves to a certain point, appreciable variation must occur in the process. The problem the biologist faces is whether this point constitutes a limit to the evolution of complexity in developmental systems. If not, what mechanisms are employed to cope with the problem ? The problem—essentially one in “custom fitting” of parts, — and the possible solution(s) to it that have evolved are discussed. The antibody producing system appears to be one that “solves” the custom-fitting problem.

    Notes: Abstract  In this paper we describe the embryonic development of the polyclad flatworm Imogine mcgrathi. Imogine is an indirect developer that hatches as a planctonic Goette’s larva after an embryonic period of approximately 7 days. Light and electron microscopic analyses of sections of staged embryos were combined with antibody stainings of wholemounted embryos to reconstruct the origin and movement of the primordia of the various organ systems, with particular emphasis on the nervous system. We introduce a system of morphologically defined stages aimed at facilitating future studies and cross-species comparisons among flatworm embryos. Imogine embryos undergo typical spiral cleavage. Micromere quartets 1–3 form an irregular double layer of mesenchymal cells that during gastrulation expands over micromere quartet 4. Micromere 4d divides into several large mesendodermal precursors whose position defines the ventral pole of the embryo. These cells, along with the animal micromeres that obtained a sub-surface position during cleavage, form a deep layer of cells that gives rise to all internal structures, including the nervous system, musculature, nephridia, and gut. Micromeres 4a–c are large yolky cells that are incorporated into the lumen of the gut, but do not themselves contribute to the gut epithelium. Shortly after gastrulation, cell differentiation sets in. Cells located at the surface adopt epithelial characteristics and form cilia that result in continuous movement of the post-gastrula stage embryo. Deep cells at the lateral margins of the embryo become organized into a protonephridial tube. A cluster of approximately 50 deep cells at the anterior pole forms the brain, in which we have identified sets of founder neurons of the brain commissure and the dorsal and ventral connectives. The early differentiating neurons, along with other cells forming stabilized microtubules (ciliated cells of the epidermis, gut and protonephridia; apical gland cells) could be analyzed in detail because of their labeling with an antibody against acetylated α-tubulin. Our findings indicate that, despite significant differences in the cleavage pattern and arrangement of blastomeres in the early embryo, morphogenesis and organ formation of a polyclad embryo follows a pattern that is very similar to the pattern observed by us and others in phylogenetically more evolved rhabdocoel flatworms.

    Notes: Abstract  Slovakia has many areas rich in thermal waters one of which is the Hornonitrianska kotlina depression. At four localities three types of waters are found. The first belongs to the Ca–Mg–HCO3 type with T.D.S. 0.7 g/l, the second to the Ca–Mg–SO4 type with T.D.S. 1.37–2.01 g/l and the third to the Ca–Mg–SO4–HCO3 type with T.D.S. 0.97 g/l. Discharge at individual localities varies up to 30 l/s and temperatures of water reach 32.5–66.6  °C. The waters are predominantly used for healing, rehabilitation purposes, recreation and heating.

    Notes: Abstract  To rapidly isolate genes specifically expressed during medaka development we generated a cDNA library enriched for genes expressed in the head region of the developing embryo. Clones were spotted on filters automatically and preselected for abundantly expressed genes by hybridizing them with a probe derived from RNA of undifferentiated totipotent cells. Of the nonhybridizing clones 153 were chosen randomly and further analyzed by whole-mount in situ hybridization. There were 67 selected clones differentially expressed in the developing embryos, and 48 of these were expressed in the developing head. Differentially expressed genes were either of novel type or showed homology to known genes containing DNA binding motifs or to putative housekeeping genes.

    Notes: Abstract  The embryonic development of the flatworm Mesostoma lingua was studied using a combination of life observation and histological analysis of wholemount preparations and sections (viewed by both light and electron microscopy.) We introduce a series of stages defined by easily recognizable morphological criteria. These stages are also applicable to other platyhelminth taxa that are currently under investigation in our laboratory. During cleavage (stages 1 and 2), the embryo is located in the center of the egg, surrounded by a layer of yolk cells. After cleavage, the embryo forms a solid, disc-shaped cell cluster. During stage 3, the embryo migrates to the periphery of the egg and acquires bilateral symmetry. The side where it contacts the egg surface corresponds to the future ventral surface of the embryo. Stage 4 is the emergence of the first organ primordia, the brain and pharynx. Gastrulation, as usually defined by the appearance of germ layers, does not exist in Mesos-toma; instead, organ primordia emerge ”in situ” from a mesenchymal mass of cells. Organogenesis takes place during stages 5 and 6. Cells at the ventral surface form the epidermal epithelium; inner cells differentiate into neurons, somatic and pharyngeal muscle cells, as well as the pharyngeal and protonephridial (excretory) epithelium. A junctional complex, consisting initially of small septate junctions, followed later by a more apically located zonula adherens, is formed in all epithelial tissues at stage 6. Beginning towards the end of stage 6 and continuing throughout stages 7 and 8, cytodifferentiation of the different organ systems takes place. Stage 7 is characterized by the appearance of eye pigmentation, brain condensation and spindle-shaped myocytes. Stage 8 describes the fully dorsally closed and differentiated embryo. Muscular contraction moves the body in the egg shell. We discuss Mesostoma embryogenesis in comparison to other animal phyla. Particular attention is given to the apparent absence of gastrulation and the formation of the epithelial junctional complex.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'activité en naphtylamidase est étudiéc au niveau des incisives et molaires de rat, à divers stades de développement. Du L-leucyl-4-methoxy-2-naphtylamide, du L-alanyl-4-methoxy-2-naphtylamide, du L-leucyl-2-naphthylamide et du DL-alanyl-2-naphtylamide sont utilisés comme substrats: du bleu rapide B et du grenat rapide GBC sont employés comme sels de diazonium. Le naphtylamidase n'est pas visible au niveau de dents, en voie de dévelopment, au cours de la formation matricielle de l'émail. A la fin de ce stade, le naphtylamidase est présent au niveau de l'extrémité distale des améloblastes, près de la surface de l'émail. L'activité enzymatique reste identique jusqu'au moment de la fusion de l'épithélium dentaire et de l'épithélium buccal, au moment de l'éruption de la dent dans la cavité buccale. On ne rencontre pas de naphtylamidase au niveau d'autres tissues dentaires; cependant une activité marquée est observée dans les ostéoclastes au niveau des surfaces de résorption de l'os alvéolaire, entourant les dents, en voie de développement et d'éruption, et dans certaines régions du tissu conjonctif.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Die Aktivität der Naphthylamidase wurde in den Backen- und Schneidezähnen von Ratten in verschiedenen Entwicklungsstufen studiert. Als Substrate wurden L-leucyl-4-methoxy-2-naphthylamid, L-alanyl-4-methoxy-2-naphthylamid, L-leucyl-2-naphthylamid und DL-alanyl-2-naphthylamid verwendet; als Diazoniumsalze dienten Echtblau B und Echt-Granat GBC. Naphthylamidase konnte während der Schmelzmatrixbildung im Zahn nicht nachgewiesen werden. Nach Abschluß dieser Phase erschien Naphthylamidase in den distalen Enden der Ameloblasten, nahe bei der Schmelzoberfläche. Die Enzymtätigkeit blieb am selben Ort lokalisiert, bis das Zahnepithel, im Augenblick wo der Zahn in die Mundhöhle durchstößt, in das Mundepithel überging. Naphthylamidase wurde in anderen Zahngeweben nicht gefunden, aber eine deutliche Aktivität konnte in gewissen Bezirken des Bindegewebes sowie in den Osteoklasten der resorbierenden Oberflächen vom alveolären Knochen festgestellt werden, welcher die sich bildenden und die hervorstoßenden Zähne umgibt.
    Notes: Abstract Naphthylamidase activity was studied in rat molar and incisor teeth at different stages of development. L-leucyl-4-methoxy-2-naphthylamide, L-alanyl-4-methoxy-2-naphthylamide, L-leucyl-2-naphthylamide and DL-alanyl-2-naphthylamide were used as substrates and Fast blue B and Fast Garnet GBC as diazonium salts. Naphthylamidase was not demonstrable in the teeth during enamel matrix formation. After the termination of this stage, naphthylamidase was present in the ameloblasts in their distal ends close to the enamel surface. The enzyme activity retained this localization until the dental epithelium fused with the oral epithelium at the time of tooth eruption into the oral cavity. Naphthylamidase was not found in other dental tissues, but marked activity was found in osteoclasts at the resorbing surfaces of alveolar bone surrounding the developing and erupting teeth and in certain areas of the connective tissue.

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