    Notes: Abstract In the female grasshopper Gomphocerus rufus mating elicits ‘secondary defense’ which makes remating impossible. The behavioral change is caused by the liquid white secretions, proteins of less than 90 kD, which are produced by the white tubuli of the male's accessory glands. Experimental injection of the white secretions directly into the spermathecal duct of receptive virgins provokes ‘secondary defense’ instantly whereas sperm transfer had no such effect. ‘Secondary defense’ is also released by eggs entering the oviducts and excerting pressure against the oviductal walls on their way to oviposition.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Am Epithel der drei Vormägen der Ziege wurden licht- und elektronenmikroskopische Untersuchungen über den Nachweis der Mg++-, (Mg++-Na+-K+)- und der Ca++-aktivierbaren ATPasen durchgeführt. Bereits an lichtmikroskopischen Präparaten wurde festgestellt, daß sich deutliche Unterschiede in der Enzymaktivität der Mg++- und Ca++ stimulierbaren ATPasen sowohl für die einzelnen Epithelschichten als auch für die verschiedenen Bereiche der Vormägen nachweisen lassen; die tiefen Epithellagen reagieren stets stärker als die oberflächlichen. Ferner ist die in hohem Maße von der Inkubationszeit abhängige Reaktionsstärke im Epithel des Blättermagens größer als in der Lamina epithelialis des Netzmagens und vor allem in jener des Pansens. Bei dem elektronenmikroskopisch geführten Nachweis der ATPasen zeigt sich, daß die Reaktionsprodukte an der Außenseite der Zellmembranen liegen. Frei von Niederschlägen sind alle Zellmembranabschnitte, die sich an der Bildung der Desmosomen und Halbdesmosomen beteiligen sowie die basalen Abschnitte der Basalzellen. Im Hinblick auf die Verteilung und feinstrukturelle Lokalisation konnten keine Unterschiede zwischen den Mg++-, Ca++- und (Mg++-Na+-K+)-aktivierbaren ATPasen beobachtet werden. In Anlehnung an die Methode nach Coleman u.a. (1967) wurden Zellmembranen von Pansenepithelzellen isoliert und an diesen biochemische Enzymbestimmungen durchgeführt. Die Ausbeute der gewonnenen Zellmembranen betrug, gemessen anhand der 5′-Nukleotidase, dem Leitenzym für Plasmamembranen, gegenüber dem eingesetzten Gesamthomogenat 0,3%. Die mit diesem Verfahren durchgeführten biochemischen Enzymbestimmungen erbrachten den Nachweis, daß in den Plasmamembranen der Pansenepithelzellen neben der Mg++- und Ca++-aktivierbaren auch eine (Na+-K+)-abhängige Transport-ATPase vorkommt.
    Notes: Summary Light- and electron microscopical studies were carried out to demonstrate ATPases activated by Mg++, by (Mg++-Na+-K+), and by Ca++. Histological sections showed clear differences of the activity of Mg++- and Ca++-stimulated ATPases in the light microscope in different layers of the epithelium as well as in different areas of the forestomach. The deeper layers reacted more intensely than the superficial ones. The intensity of the reaction (which depends on incubation time) in the omasal epithelium was stronger than in the lamina epithelialis of the reticulum and much stronger than in the lamina epithelialis of the rumen. In the electron microscope, the reaction products of the ATPase appeared on the outer surface of cell membranes (plasmalemmata). No deposits of the reaction products were observed on those areas of the cell membranes, which are involved in the formation of desmosomes and semidesmosomes. The basal parts of the basal cells were also free from reaction products. As for the distribution and ultrastructural localisation of the deposits, no differences were observed among the ATPase stimulated by Mg++, (Mg++-Na+-K+), and Ca++. Using the technique of Coleman et al. (1967), the cell membranes of ruminal epithelium were isolated. Biochemical assays of the enzymes were carried out. The quantity of cell membranes obtained was 0.3% of the whole homogenate, when compared with 5′-nucleotidase, which is the typical enzyme of plasmalemmata. The biochemical enzyme assays showed that, besides Mg++- and Ca++-dependent ATPases, a (Na+-K+)-dependent transport ATPase exists in the cell membranes of ruminal epithelial cells.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Une étude pharmacologique et histologique des transformations enregistrées le long du tractus neurosécrétoire est réalisée chez l'anguille européenne après hypophysectomie totale. Les animaux, sacrifiés entre 8 jours et 150 jours après hypophysectomie, sont d'abord examinés sur le plan quantitatif en suivant le devenir de l'arginine-vasotocine et de l'istotocine dans les parties antérieure (noyau préoptique) et caudale du tractus neurosécrétoire. L'étude est ensuite effectuée sur un plan qualitatif, en suivant, pour les mêmes territoires et les mêmes périodes de temps, les transformations notées pour le neurosécrétat. Les résultats obtenus au moyen de ces deux techniques d'investigation sont comparés. 1. Sur le plan quantitatif, l'expérience montre que l'évolution de l'arginine-vasotocine est différente de celle de l'isotocine, et qu'une distinction peut être faite entre les parties antérieure et caudale du tractus neurosécrétoire. En règle générale, et particuhèrement pour le premier peptide, lorsqu'il y a chute de concentration au niveau préoptique il y a augmentation de concentration dans la partie caudale, ce qui permet de traduire le cheminement des hormones. 2. L'expérience montre également que les hormones sont toujours présentes, mais subissent des chutes de concentration très importantes. 3. Le contrôle histologique confirme les résultats précédents, et montre des variations importantes dans la quantité et la colorabilité du neurosécrétat.
    Notes: Summary A pharmacological and histological study of the transformations of the neurosecretory material observed along the neurosecretory tract of the hypophysectomized eel has been performed. The animals, sacrificed within a period of 8 to 150 days after hypophysectomy, have been first examined on a quantitative level by registrating the concentration of arginine-vasotocin and ichthyotocin in the anterior (preoptic nucleus) and caudal parts of the neurosecretory tract. The study was then transferred to a qualitative level for the same regions and post-operative times, to follow up the transformations of the neurosecretory material. The results obtained with these two approaches of investigation are compared. 1. On the quantitative level, the experiments showed that the arginine-vasotocin behaves differently if compared with ichthyotocin, and that a difference exists between the anterior and caudal parts of the neurosecretory tract. In general, a decrease of concentration in the preoptic nucleus is followed by an increase of concentration in the caudal part. This is particularly obvious in the case of the arginine-vasotocin. This result speaks in favour of the transport of hormones along the neurosecretory tract. 2. The experiment showed also that the hormones are always present, but show an important decrease in concentration. 3. The histological control confirmed the pharmacological results, showing great variations of the quantity and stainability of the neurosecretory material.

    Notes: Summary Monoamine-containing neurons in the gut of Lampetra fluviatilis are characterized by histochemical, electron microscopical and biochemical methods. Strongly yellow fluorescent, probably serotonin-containing intrinsic neurons are found along the entire length of the intestine. Their processes aggregate to form large bundles of mainly non-terminal axons, constituting a subepithelial fibre plexus. This subepithelial, ganglion cell comprising plexus is connected to a wide-meshed subserosal plexus which has ganglion cells of different size and few varicose, single axons. Intermingled with both plexus there occur — in the anterior and middle but not in the preanal portion of the lamprey intestine — scattered green fluorescent intrinsic perikarya, emanating faintly green fluorescent, poorly varicosed axons. The formaldehyde-induced neuronal fluorophores conform to serotonin (yellow fluorescent compound), noradrenaline, and dopamine (green fluorescent substance), as revealed in microspectrofluorimetric recordings. The electron microscopical analysis of the yellow fluorescent intrinsic neurons in the terminal hindgut shows nerve cell pericarya and axons equipped with a typical population of occasional small granular and many large granular vesicles (750–1600 Å). The number and opacity of cores of the small and the osmiophilia of the cores of the large granular vesicles are significantly increased following short-term treatment with 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine. Long-term treatment with 5,6- or 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine provokes severe signs of ultrastructure impairment and eventual degeneration in the supposed serotonin-containing axons, besides indications of piling-up of organelles in the non-terminal axons due to arrest of axonal transport. Chromatography of acid extracts from the lamprey intestine, gills and kidney reveals the presence of serotonin (besides another unidentified indoleamine) and dopamine and noradrenaline in the gut, but only dopamine in the brain. The detection of serotonin, noradrenaline and dopamine in the lamprey gut is confirmed by chemical determinations. The occurrence of intrinsic serotonin-, noradrenaline- and dopamine-containing neurons in the gut of Lampetra fluviatilis deviates from the established pattern of innervation of the vertebrate intestine and is considered to be a remnant of an autonomic innervation principle common in invertebrates.

    Notes: Abstract  Significant amounts of endogenous biotin were detected by avidin-peroxidase in fixed rat kidney, liver, and brain. The staining was indistinguishable from the true signals of immunoreactivity and could not be consistently blocked by pretreatment with avidin. The finding that certain neurons in the hippocampus contain more biotin than neurons in other areas of the brain suggests that biotin might have novel functions in the brain other than its well-known role as cofactor of carboxylases. Critical examination of published immunohistochemical localization studies on rat kidney strongly suggests that many false-positive results have been considered as true signals. Interference of endogenous biotin in any study using avidin-biotin technology must be considered if biological tissues are involved. The published data obtained by this method should therefore be reevaluated. Furthermore, appropriate controls, blockers and caution in interpreting results must be exercised, not only in immunohistochemistry but also in any applications of avidin-biotin technology.

    Notes: The finite Gaussian Expansion method for molecular integrals proposed by Taketa, O-ohata and Huzinaga has been extended to the integrals of molecular properties. The integral formulas of so-called moment, field and field gradient integrals have been derived. It has been numerically shown that in order to evaluate the field and the field gradient integrals based on Slater type orbitals, eight- or ten-term Gaussian expansions are sufficient but this method fails to attain sufficient effective numbers for the moment integrals.

    Notes: A one-dimensional model consisting of a “diatomic” spring attached on one side to a rigid wall and on the other side to a linear array of mass-springs is proposed as a model for the vibrational relaxation of small solute molecules in host lattices. A modification allowing a change in the equilibrium internuclear extension of the diatomic spring is also incorporated. The Hamiltonian divides naturally into pure diatomic, pure linear crystal, and the two mixed perturbation terms, one giving rise to stepwise vibrational cascade damping accompanied by phonon emission, and the other process, lattice relaxation, giving rise to phonon emission without any change of the quantum number of the diatomic spring. The cascade damping rate for a diatomic spring with a frequency less than the the maximum frequency of the linear crystal is calculated to second-order, and it is shown that the perturbation series converges in this range.An upper bound to the cascade damping rate for a diatomic spring with a frequency greater (i.e., 4.5 ×) than the cut-off frequency of the linear crystal is determined to be very small, λ ≦ 104 sec -;1.The rate for the lattice relaxation process corresponds to a line-width λ = 6 cm -1 at 0K.An explanation for the thermal quenching of the low-temperature luminescence of SO2 is based upon induced cascade-phonon emission.

    Notes: A one-centre CI wave function for HeH+ reported by Stuart and Matsen for 0.1 ≤ R ≤ 5.0 has been analysed in detail from the viewpoint of molecular formation. Further, by means of a natural orbital analysis, it was possible to obtain some measure of the electron correlation contained within such wave functions for various R values. These effects were illustrated by means of a series of difference maps for the electron density. One- and two-particle expectation values were obtained as a function of R. Thus, it was possible to study several aspects of the influence of the proton on the electron charge cloud as we pass from He through to the united atom Li+. The occupation numbers within the natural expansions were compared with those which arise from a similar analysis of a two-centre wave function for HeH+. The “character” of such wave functions for HeH+, and also for He and Li+, were analysed and compared.

    Notes: The quadrupolar and octupolar distortion of the ions in the He-sequence caused by an external electro-magnetic field has been studied by a variation-perturbation method in the Hartree-Fock scheme. For certain frequencies singularities appear in the response of the system to the perturbation. Approximate representations for the excited d and f states have been obtained from a study of these resonances. Such a perturbation calculation has the advantage that representations of the different excited states are obtained independently. The orthogonality to all the lower lying levels of the same symmetry is not required. The only source of inaccuracy implicit in the procedure lies in the improper consideration of the inter-electronic interaction. This is corrected for by an independent calculation, which is again formulated in terms of a perturbation treatment. The resulting wave functions for the excited states are accurate in the Hartree-Fock model. Expectation values of several operators have been calculated with these corrected wave functions.
