    Notes: Summary A method is described for the isolation and purification of a sulphated glycopeptide from human supragingival calculus. The compound was isolated after using EDTA treatment, 2 M CaCl2 extraction, proteolytic digestion, ethanol precipitation, and finally purified by DEAE cellulose chromatography. It migrated as a single component on cellulose acetate electrophoresis, and chemical and infrared spectral analysis showed the presence of covalently attached sulphate groups. The sulphated glycopeptide was distinguished from being a sulphated glycosaminoglycan.

    Notes: Summary Cyanogen bromide (CNBr) peptides were prepared of the insoluble collagen of bovine dental cementum. Following chromatographic separation, the peptides were identified by their amino-acid composition. Type I collagen ([α1(I)]2α2) accounted for more than 90% of the organic matrix, while Type III collagen ([α1(III)]3) was present at a level of approximately 5%. Amino-acid analyses revealed that the CNBr peptides from α1(I) and α2 chains of cementum closely resembled the corresponding peptides from calf skin. The only systematic difference was a higher level of hydroxylation of prolyl and lysyl residues of the cementum peptides.

    Notes: Summary The calcium homeostatic mechanism was challenged in adult female rats by feeding them a calcium-deficient diet containing oxalate, and by subjecting them to pregnancy and lactation. The regimen caused a substantial weight loss, especially in those animals which reared their young well. Severe hypocalcaemia was observed in the lactating rats. Serum-P was slightly elevated. The content of hydroxyproline in serum was considerably elevated, reflecting the degree of calcium deprivation. Serum proteins were least influenced. The calcium depriving regimen reduced the growth of long bones, but did not stop it. The ash content of the bones was considerably reduced, the degree of reduction depended on the degree of calcium deprivation. Ash as percentage of total bone organ was reduced, but not to the same extent as total ash. Analyses of different parts of femur showed that the proximal and distal parts had lost more bone mineral than the diaphyseal shaft. The ash content of cortical bone tissue from the femur was estimated by a volumetric method. No differences were observed between test groups and controls, indicating that no measurable amounts of bone mineral had been removed from the walls of the vascular canals or by osteocytic osteolysis. Planimetric determinations on cross sections from femora disclosed that a great amount of bone had been removed from the endosteal surface of the diaphysis, while the periosteal surface demonstrated reduced bone apposition.

    Notes: Summary The fat globules of the cream fractions of human and rat milk were stained with ruthenium red. Under the electron microscope, discrete granules and an amorphous coat of lesser density are seen at the surface of the milk fat globules. Since ruthenium red binds anionic groups selectively, it is probable that the granules containe the greatest concentration of these groups. The cream fraction of rat milk contains hexoses, hexosamines, methylpentoses and sialic acid. Methylpentoses and hexosamines are significantly enriched in the cream fraction. It is concluded that the finding of a surface coat in milk fat globules is in keeping with the Bargmann-Knoop model and suggests a distinct mechanism for carrying certain complex carbohydrates in milk. The role of the negative charges at the outer surface of the membrane coat in maintaining fat globules in suspension and in binding certain cations such as calcium is suggested.

    Keywords: Hypophysis ; Rostral pars distalis ; Mugil platanus ; Animals ; Prolactin hormone secretion
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary The rostral pars distalis (RPD) of the teleost Mugil platanus from animals pretreated with reserpine or 6-hydroxydopamine (6-HODA) were assayed for dopamine (DA) or noradrenaline (NA) or for prolactin hormone. Such determinations were coupled with electron microscopy. It was found that reserpine and 6-HODA produced a significant decrease in the content of DA, NA, and prolactin. Electron microscope studies revealed that prolactin cells became activated as judged by ultrastructural criteria. After 6-HODA treatment type “B” neurosecretory fibers entering the RPD became selectively destroyed. These observations lead us to suggest that prolactin secretion is under inhibitory control by type “B” neurosecretory fibers of adrenergic nature.

    Notes: The surface properties of Ag3Sn are important in the amalgamation process so that mechanical abrasion is generally necessary to get a satisfactory amalgam. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to characterize the surface of Ag3Sn after several types of surfaces treatments.Homogeneous polycrystalline rods of Ag3Sn were prepared in vacuo from high purity (99.99%) Ag and Sn. Specimens were sliced from these rods and prepared as follows: (1) mechanically polished, (2) polished as in (1) and allowed to sit in air for three days and (3) polished as in (1) and electrolytically etched. Each of these specimens was examined by Auger electron spectroscopy.The results showed that after mechanical abrasion the surface film was primarily oxide and the Ag to Sn ratio was lower than the bulk composition, indicating preferential oxidation of Sn. After sitting in air sulfur was also present on the surface and the Ag to Sn ratio was greater than that immediately after polishing, indicating the formation of Ag2S. After electrolytic etching some oxide was still present, but only a trace of sulfide was found. However, the Ag to Sn ratio was greater than that for mechanically polished specimens, indicating preferential dissolution of Sn. Therefore, it is seen that the surface preparation of Ag3Sn has a marked effect on Ag and Sn concentrations and the nature of films at the surface.

    Notes: A streaming potential experiment was conducted on in vitro bone to determine the effects polyvalent salts have on bone zeta potential. Polyvalent metal salts would be introduced into local physiological electrolytes by corrosion of a metal implant or dissolution of a ceramic implant. It was hypothesized that a change in zeta potential of mineralized tissue, resulting from the introduction of polyvalent salts, could be a cause of tissue instability at the implant interface. Zeta potentials measured in bone were on the order of a few millivolts. Strongly hydrolytic metal cations such as Al+3 and Fe+3 did not have sufficient activity in buffered neutral electrolytes to alter bone zeta potential. Results suggest that less hydrolytic cations of high valence, and large polarizable anions may affect bone zeta potential.

    Notes: The wettability characteristics of the contact lens material, PHEMA, with respect to water have been determined by using the sessile drop, and the captive air bubble techniques of contact angle goniometry. It is concluded that on PHEMA gels water does not spread spontaneously. Large hysteresis has been observed in the advancing and receding contact angles. This suggests that this hydrogel surface is capable of changing its free energy through reorientation of the polymer side chains and chain segments depending on the nature of the adjacent phase. The water content of the gels does not appear to have an effect on water wettability in the hydration range investigated. The minor wettability differences among the various gels studied were most likely due to differences in surface structure and segmental mobility due to inherent variations in the method of preparation. Small but consistent differences were found between the contact angles measured by the captive bubble method and those obtained by the sessile drop method, the former values being higher. These differences may not be method-related artifacts and cannot be explained at the present time.

    Notes: Dogs were dialyzed with collagen and cuprophane membranes, human renal failure patients were dialyzed with cuprophane membranes, and samples of the membranes were observed by scanning electron microscopy at different time periods. Fixation was done in glutaraldehyde and cacodylate buffer, and samples were dried at the critical point. All cellular elements were well preserved and appeared viable. Cuprophane adsorbed platelets almost selectively in dog dialyses, whereas collagen adsorbed a smaller number and more heterogeneous group of cells. In contrast to these findings, when cuprophane was used in clinical dialyses, the cell population was predominantly polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
