    Notes: Summary The primary plexus of the toad hypothalamic-adenohypophysial portal system has two types of loops. The short loops are localized in the external region of the median eminence and surrounded by nerve endings and glial cells. The long loops approach the ependymal lining of the median eminence. The ascending and descending branches of these loops are surrounded by nerve and ependymal endings and glial cells. The actual subependymal portion of the long loops is virtually in contact with ependymal processes only, which form a “cuff” interposed between this portion of the long loops and the fibres of the hypothalamic-neurohypophysial tract. Many of the vascular endings of the ependymal processes have electron dense granules whose diameter ranges between 700 and 1400 Å. The ultrastructure of the ependymal cells suggests that these granules are transport material and not secretory material. This anatomical arrangement linking the ependyma of the median eminence and the long loops of the primary plexus of the hypothalamic-adenohypophysial portal system makes the possibility of an interrelationship between the cerebrospinal fluid and the portal blood very considerable.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Das OVLT stellt jenen Abschnitt der Lamina terminalis dar, der durch eine eigentümliche, reiche Vaskularisation auffällt. Die von der Basalmembran bedeckte äußere Hirnoberfläche dringt an einer oder mehreren Stellen tief und spaltenartig in das OVLT ein. Dieser Spalt, der Bindegewebselemente und Gefäße enthält, verzweigt sich immer mehr und bildet ein aus 0,1–0,2 μ breiten Spalten bestehendes, labyrinthartiges System. Zum großen Teil füllen Gefäße vom Kapillartyp die größeren bindegewebigen Räume aus. Das Endothel der Kapillaren ist allgemein dünn und z. T. fenestriert. Die Bindegewebsräume und mit ihnen die Gefäße können sich dem Ventrikel derart nähern, daß sie von ihm durch nur eine einzige kubische Ependymzelle getrennt werden. Der Stützapparat des Organs wird in erster Linie von den Ependymzellen gebildet. Ihre langen basalen Fortsätze durchschneiden die Gehirnwand im Gebiet des OVLT und nehmen mit ihren Endigungen am Aufbau der Wand der Bindegewebsspalten und der äußeren Hirnoberfläche teil. In einem Teil der Ependymfüße findet man zahlreiche längliche, lysosomenartige Körper. Häufig kommen in die Tiefe der Substanz des OVLT eingedrungene Ependymzellen vor, welche nicht selten Zilien enthalten. Unter den Gliazellen konnten in erster Linie Astrozyten identifiziert werden. Die lichtmikroskopisch im OVLT beschriebenen sog. Parenchymzellen erweisen sich im Elektronenmikroskop als kleine, primitive Neurone. Ein großer Teil der Nervenfasern des Neuropils enthält granulierte Vesikel (Durchmesser zwischen 650 und 950 Å), die im allgemeinen eine runde oder ovoide Gestalt besitzen, obwohl auch tubulös ausgezogene Formen vorkommen. Die Nervenfasern welche die granulierten Vesikel enthalten, verlaufen nahe zur Kammeroberfläche, allgemein in der Längsachse des OVLT, wobei sie die länglichen Ependymzellen überkreuzen; in der Nähe der Endigung der basalen Ependymfortsätze wenden sie sich parallel zu letzteren und endigen zusammen mit ihnen frei am Rand der Bindegewebsspalten. Je ein solches, aus basalen Ependymfasern und Axonen bestehendes Bündel wird mehr oder weniger vom bindegewebigen Spalt umfaßt. Die Axonendigungen enthalten außer den granulierten Vesikeln und Mitochondrien auch zahlreiche synaptische Vesikel. Einige freie Axonendigungen wurden auch auf der freien Oberfläche des OVLT gefunden. Die Frage nach der Funktion des Organs wird an Hand der elektronenmikroskopischen Befunde diskutiert. Es wird für möglich gehalten, daß humorale Faktoren — ähnlich wie in der Eminentia mediana — aus den Axonendigungen in die Blutbahn gelangen; darauf scheinen die freien Endigungen am Rande des bindegewebigen Spaltensystems, die granulierte und synaptische Vesikel enthalten und die teilweise fenestrierten Kapillaren hinzuweisen, welche den aufgezweigten Bindegewebsraum „drainieren“.
    Notes: Summary OVLT is that part of the terminal plate which is characterized by its rich vascular supply. The brain surface covered by a basement membrane forms deep, cleft-like invaginations containing vessels and connective tissue elements. These connective tissue spaces dividing into 0.1 to 0.2 μ end branches are parts of a labyrinthic system in the interior of the organ. The vessels, mostly of the capillary type, are situated in the main clefts; their endothelium often shows fenestration. Some of the capillaries may approach the ventricle to such an extent that they are separated from it by a single ependymal cell. The supporting apparatus of the OVLT is mainly represented by elongated ependymal cells. Their long basal processes traverse the terminal plate to take part with their foot-like endings in the formation of the brain surface and that of the connective tissue spaces. Groups of special ependymal cells often exhibiting cilia may occur in the interior of the organ. Glial cells are mainly represented by astrocytes. The so-called parenchymal cells described in the light microscopy can be identified as small, primitive neurons. A great part of the nerve fibres in the OVLT contains granulated vesicles the diameter of which varies between 650 and 950 Å. The nerve fibres are mainly running vertically between the ependymal processes while at their terminal portion they assume a parallel course to the ependymal processes and end with them at the margin of the connective tissue spaces. Besides granulated vesicles, these free axon terminals contain numerous synaptic-like vesicles and several mitochondria. Some of the free terminals may occur also on the outer surface of the OVLT. The possible functions of the organ are discussed on the basis of the present findings. The hypothesis is raised that — similarly to the median eminence — humoral controlling factors may be released into the vessels. This hypothesis seems to be supported by the presence of free axon terminals containing granulated and synaptic vesicles and the existence of numerous, partly “fenestrated” capillaries draining the connective tissue spaces.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Der Nucleus supraopticus der Ratte, die einer Dehydratation ausgesetzt war, wurde ultrastrukturell-morphometrisch analysiert. Dabei zeigte sich, daß die relativen Volumenanteile der einzelnen Zellkompartimente während der fünftägigen Durstperiode eine auffallende Konstanz aufweisen. Hingegen läßt sich eine absolute Zunahme der Einzelzellvolumina und somit auch der an der Synthese und Sekretion der Neurohormone beteiligten Zellkompartimente feststellen. Die vorliegenden Befunde sprechen für einen beschleunigten Abtransport des neurosekretorischen Materials bei gesteigerter Synthese. Auf eine optimale Standardisierung der Perfusionsmethode bei Untersuchungen am neurosekretorischen Zwischenhirnsystem wird hingewiesen.
    Notes: Summary The supraoptic nucleus of the dehydrated rat has been analysed by electron microscopy and morphometry. With that it appears, that the relative volumes of the different cell compartments are striking constant. Otherwise one can see an absolute increase of the cell volume together with the cell compartments which take part at the synthesis and secretion of the neurohormones. These results are expression of an accelerated move of the neurosecretory material during increased synthesis. The importance of an optimal standardization of the perfusion-method in investigations of the neurosecretory system is demonstrated.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Der Hypophysenhinterlappen von Ratten, die einer Dehydratation unterworfen waren, wurde ultrastrukturell-morphometrisch untersucht. Als wichtigster Befund wurde bereits nach 36stündiger Dehydratation eine massive Abnahme der Neurosekretgranula festgestellt. Gleichzeitig ist ein signifikanter Anstieg der Fettkörper in den Pituicyten zu verzeichnen. Die Fettkörper können nach Ansicht der Autoren als Endprodukt der Membranreste oder der Trägersubstanz des Neurohormons interpretiert werden. Eine Mitbeteiligung der Lysosomen bei ihrer Verarbeitung wird diskutiert.
    Notes: Summary The neurohypophysis of the rat after dehydration has been studied by electron microscopic and morphometric methods. As the main result we found a massive decrease of the neurosecretory granules already at a dehydration of 36 hours. At the same time one can note a significant increase of fat vacuoles in the pituicytes. These fat vacuoles could be the final product of residual membranes or of the carrier substance of the neurohormones. The possibility of a functional role of lysosomes in the catabolism is discussed.

    Notes: Summary Methods for light and electron microscopic comparison of individual argentaffin and argyrophil enterochromaffin cells (EC) in the sheep duodenal mucosa are described. These silver procedures were applied for light microscopy to Epon-embedded sections. The adjacent sections were examined with the electron microscope. The most specific characteristics of the argentaffin and argyrophil EC in electron microscopy are highly osmiophilic cytoplasmic granules. In one cell type these granules are smaller and more roundish than in the another type. These two cell types are stainable both by the argentaffin and argyrophil reactions. No essential difference can be observed in the localization of these elements. It is suggested that both cell types belong to the enterochromaffin system. Both silver methods are also suitable for the light microscopic identification of other intestinal structures in sections adjacent to that sectioned for electron microscopy.

    Notes: Summary The pancreatic islet in the mouse has a highly complex and heterogeneous structure. It contains Aa, Ab, Ac, B, C, D, E, and F cells. The classification of cell types is primarily based on the shape, size and electron opacity of secretory granules and on the spatial relationship of the granules to their unit membranes. Morphological evidence is supported by a statistical analysis of the size distribution of granules and of their membranes. Experimental immunization of mice with insulin, provides additional data to support the existence of eight different cell types in the islet of the normal animal and reveales marked immunological stimulation of B cells, secondary stimulation of Aa, D and F cells, atrophy of Ac cells and hyperplasia of C cells. It is proposed that corresponding cell types exist in other mammals and man. The experimental insulin immunization process appears to perform an immunofunctional analysis of the islet, and suggests that in mice the Aa, D and F cells might be involved in cell energy supply. Lipocaic and some pancreatic factors with insulin-like activity (NSILA) will likely find their morphological equivalents. It is proposed that chemical solubility techniques represent the most promising avenues of approach to the isolation of secretory products from the endocrine pancreas, and that the assay of these extracts should primarily be conducted at the cell level.

    Notes: Summary The epidermis of Anolis carolinensis is renewed periodically by molting. Prior to the molt the distinct layers of the epidermis, namely, the Oberhäutchen, β, mesos, and α layers, are formed in sequence from a morphologically homogenous population of basal cells. The Oberhäutchen, the first cell layer to form, has spinules on the surface which interdigitate with the overlying cells of the clear layer. The cells of the Oberhäutchen develop 80 Å filaments similar to those in the cells of the α layer. Beneath the Oberhäutchen is the β layer, the cells of which develop membrane-bounded packets containing a homogenous material during the early stages of differentiation. Later 100–500 Å thick fibrils are formed in the membranebounded packets. The fully keratinized cells, however, are packed with filaments 30 Å in diameter separated by an electron dense amorphous matrix, very similar to β-type keratin found in the feather rachis. The cells of the α layer, which is immediately below the β layer, contain 80 Å filaments very similar to the α-type keratin found in hair cortex and keratinizing stratified epithelia of mammals. Large quantities of glycogen are found in the cells of each layer during their genesis. Even though a stratum granulosum is not found underneath the α layer, the cells of the clear layer develop bodies which have histochemical and ultrastructural characteristics of keratohyalin granules. The old epidermis is then shed in toto at the junction of the clear layer (above) and the Oberhäutchen (below).

    Notes: Summary The time and frequency of occurrence of granular cytoplasmic bodies in oocytes of the golden hamster has been investigated. The bodies are first seen immediately after birth when most of the germ cells have commenced meiotic prophase. They increase in frequency until approximately twelve days post-natal, at which time most oocytes have attained the dictyate stage. After this, frequency of occurrence of the bodies declines. Very few have been noted in adult material. The possible significance of the bodies is discussed.
