    Notes:
    The high-field magnetization process in the randomly diluted metamagnet Fe1−xMgxTiO3 has been investigated in single crystal samples with x≤0.3 by using dc magnetic fields of up to 300 kOe generated by a hybrid magnet. In contrast to the sharp metamagnetic transition along the hexagonal c axis observed in FeTiO3, the diluted compounds show a considerable smearing in the transition with increasing Mg concentration. When the field is applied along the a axis at 4.2 K, a sudden jump in magnetization occurs at 235 kOe in FeTiO3, while no anomaly is observed up to 300 kOe along the a* axis which is taken to be perpendicular to both c and a axes. The jump field is lower in the diluted compounds. For the sample with x=0.185 we have also observed an anomalous increase in magnetization along the a* axis at 270 kOe.

    Notes:
    In order to investigate the el led of occlusion on the skin, the flexor sides of both upper arms were covered with column-shaped closed chambers, 30 mm in outer diameter. 20 mm in inner diameter. and 5 mm in height, which were made of polyethylene loam. The tops of the chambers were sealed be plastic films with various levels of water vapor permeability to control moisture in each chamber. The raised chamber walls prevented direct contact between the skin and the plastic film. After 24 h of application, morphological changes of the skin surface were observed microscopically by the nitrocellulose-replica method. Although no visual alterations were found on all areas of occluded skin, microscopic evaluation showed that simple occlusion by films induced an increase in the number of deepened skin furrows on the skin surface. This increase was associated with lower water vapor permeability of the films, as well as with higher values of both temperature and humidity on the test day. Thus, since conditions which facilitate perspiration from the skin lend to cause skin irritation, prolonged exposure of the skin to sweat by simple occlusion may act as a primary skin irritant

    Notes:
    Chromosome 3A of wheat is known to carry earliness per se genes. To determine the number of genes and their arm location, ear emergence time under a controlled environment was nvestigated using ditelosomic lines and homozygous recombinant substitution lines developed between chromosome 3A homologues from (Timstein) and (Chinese Spring) (CS) in a CS genetic background. Because the ear emergence distribution was discontinuous and two separate modes were produced, the 86 recombinant lines could be divided into 21 lines as the early ‘Timstein’3A type and 65 lines as the late CS type. This agrees with the 1:3 independent segregation of two genes both located on chromosome 3A. Therefore, two hypotheses can be proposed, either CS(‘Timstein’ 3A) carries two genes and both are necessary to give early ear emergence, or one gene for early ear emergence is present on (Timstein) 3A, but a suppressor is on CS 3A. The behaviour of ditelosomic 3AL and 3AS lines, with an ear emergence time identical to that of CS, suggested that one gene is located on the long arm and the other is on the short arm.

    Notes:
    To clarify the significance of basic fetoprotein (BFP) in lymphocytes, we investigated whether BFP is produced in lymphocytes during blastic transformation. Peripheral blood lymphocytes obtained from 14 adults were cultured under the stimulation of lectins. The concentration of BFP in the culture medium (extracellular BFP) was estimated serially. The incorporation of [6-3 H] thymidine was assayed simultaneously. The intracellular BFP was measured by dual flow cytometry for DNA and BFP. A lymph node was studies immunohistochemically. Serum BFP was measured in four cases of lumphocytic leukaemia. In two cases, dual staining was performed. The intracellular BFP of the mitogen-stimulated lymphocytes was increased within 24 h. The extracellular BFP was increased exponentially from 72 h. The extracellular BFP at 96 h did not correlate with the [3H]-thymidine incorporation. The intracellular BFP increase began in G1 phase. Immunostaining showed that the B cells also produced BFP. Theserum BFP level in leukaemia was high in 1 of 4 cases and the leukaemic cells in two cases showed high intracellular BFP content. These observations indicate that BFP is produced in activated human lymphocytes and in lymphocytic leukaemic cells. The production of BFP during blastic transformation will be a useful new in vitro model for studying the biological role of BFP, and BFP labelling may offer some new possibilities for study of lymphocytes.

    1. In the present study, using the euglycaemic hyperinsulinaemic glucose clamp technique, we investigated the effects of hyperinsulinaemia on sodium-water metabolism and the pressor system in obesity, both of which have been reported to be closely associated with insulin resistance and/or hyperinsulinaemia.2. Sixteen obese young subjects and 24 non-obese young subjects who were all normotensives, participated in this study. The 2h euglycaemic hyperinsulinaemic glucose clamp was performed in a fasting state. The mean glucose infusion rate needed to maintain a fasting blood sugar level (FBS) during the last 30 min of the clamp was used as an indicator of insulin sensitivity (M-value). Before and after the clamp, the following parameters were measured: creatinine clearance (Ccr); urinary excretion of sodium (UNaV); fractional excretion of sodium (FENa); plasma renin activity (PRA); plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) and plasma noradrenaline concentration (PNA).3. The M-value was significantly lower in obese subjects compared with non-obese subjects, although FBS and fasting immunoreactive insulin levels were similar in both groups. UNaV and FENa fell only in obese subjects during the clamp, while Ccr showed no significant change in either group. PNA and PRA increased significantly and PAC tended to increase in both groups.4. These results suggest that obese subjects have insulin resistance with respect to glucose metabolism, but that urinary sodium excretion and the pressor system remain insulin-sensitive; the sensitivity of the sodium retaining action to hyperinsulinaemia was actually higher in obese subjects than in non-obese subjects. Therefore, if compensatory endogenous hyperinsulinaemia was raised by insulin resistance, these two factors may lead to chronic sodium retention and pressor system stimulation and, in turn, to hypertension in obesity.

    Notes:
    1. The present study was performed to determine whether chronic treatments with gamma linolenic acid (n-6, GLA) or eicosapentaenoic acid (n-3, EPA) would alter serum and red blood cell (RBC) unsaturated fatty acid composition, and to determine whether these treatments would affect blood pressure (BP), serum lipid metabolism and the development of atherosclerosis in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR).2. To compare the effects on atherosclerosis, some SHR were denuded of aortic endothelium so that the development of atherosclerosis would be accelerated. Olive oil (control), GLA or EPA (low dose: 5 mg/day per rat, high dose: 50 mg/day per kg, respectively) was administered intraperitoneally for 6 weeks in SHR.3. GLA treatments increased GLA and its metabolite, dihomo-GLA, levels in serum but not in RBC, while EPA treatments increased EPA level both in serum and in RBC.4. The BP of control SHR was further elevated. EPA significantly reduced this elevation of systolic, mean and diastolic pressure within the first week and thereafter, whereas GLA did not affect BP elevation. Neither heart rate or bodyweight gain was affected by these treatments.5. Serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and glucose (G) levels and the development of atherosclerosis were unaffected by either GLA or EPA treatment.6. In summary, chronic EPA but not GLA treatment slightly reduced BP elevation in SHR. Although chronic GLA or EPA treatment increased the respective serum level, these treatments unaltered serum TC, TG and G levels, and could not prevent the development of aortic atherosclerosis in SHR.

    Notes:
    1. To determine whether hypothalamic and medullary GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid)B stimulation would affect the sympathetic and cardiovascular activities, and to determine whether these effects would be altered in hypertension, baclofen (a GABAb agonist) was injected into a hypothalamic pressor area (ventromedial hypothalamus, VMH), a depressor area (anterior hypothalamus, AH), or a nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) in normotensive and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR).2. Intracetebroventricular (ICV) injections of a GABAa agonist (muscimol, 1 μg) decreased blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR). ICV injections of baclofen (2μg) elicited biphasic depressor and pressor effects, and these effects were abolished by a pretreatment with saclofen (GABAb antagonist, 100 μg, icv).3. Muscimol (400 ng) and baclofen (800 ng) injected into VMH decreased sympathetic nerve activity (SNA), BP and HR to almost similar levels, while saclofen injected into VMH increased HR without affecting BP levels.4. The same dose of baclofen injected into AH increased BP, but muscimol (AH) did not alter BP.5. Both muscimol and baclofen injected into NTS increased BP, but its magnitude was larger in baclofen injections.6. Depressor and sympathoinhibitory effects of baclofen (VMH) in SHR were larger than those in normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats, while pressor responses elicited by baclofen (AH) did not differ between SHR and WKY.7. In summary, GABA reduces SNA, BP and HR through both GABAa and GABAb receptors in VMH. In addition, the GABAb system acts on AH and NTS to further regulate the cardiovascular activities. In SHR, GABAB-ergic dysfunction in VMH but not in AH might contribute to the development of hypertension.

    Notes:
    1. A controlled-release preparation of mesalazine microgranules (PentasaR; Ferring AS, Vanlose, Denmark) releases the active ingredient over a wide area from the small intestine to the rectum and is consequently expected to bring about therapeutic benefits to patients with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease.2. Mesalazine microgranules (50 or 150 mg/kg per day) were administered orally to each rabbit with carrageenan-induced colitis for six weeks. Its inhibitory effect on colonic mucosal damage was assessed in terms of the microscopic damage scores, leukotriene B4 concentrations and concentrations of mesalazine derivatives.3. At the end of the experiment, the mesalazine 150 mg group had gained a significantly greater bodyweight than the control group. Microscopic damage was significantly lower in the 150 mg group than in the untreated control group. Tissue concentrations of 5-aminosalicylic acid and acetyl-5-aminosalicylic acid in the small and large intestine were higher in the 150 mg group than in the 50 mg group. Mucosal leukotriene B4 levels tended to be lower in rabbits receiving the larger dose of mesalazine.4. The present study indicates that slow release 5-aminosalicylic acid at the larger dose reaches the large bowel in sufficiently high concentrations following oral administration and significantly reduces carrageenan-induced colitis in the rabbit.

    Notes:
    This study investigates the differential localization of the α- subunit (S100-α) and the β-subunit (S100-β) of the S-100 protein in the feline testis, using immunohistochemistry with polyclonal antibodies to bovine S-100 protein (S-100) and monoclonal antibodies to bovine S100-α and S100-β. Appreciable differences were observed in the cellular localization of the immunoreactivity of each subunit. S-100 was observed in the Sertoli cells, the epithelial cells of the transitional segment of the seminiferous tubules, Leydig cells and the peritubular cells of the seminiferous tubules, but was not observed in the epithelial cells of straight tubules and the rete testis or in the endothelial cells of blood and lymph vessels. S100-α immunoreactivity was localized in Sertoli cells, peritubular cells and the epithelial cells of the terminal segment of the tubules, whereas S100-β immunoreactivity was localized in Leydig cells. The differential localization of the α- and β-subunits of the S-100 protein in the feline testis suggests that this protein is multifunctional and be useful as an investigative tool in studying feline testis function.

    Notes:
    The aim of this study was to reveal the effect of metal wire on the adaptation of the denture reinforced with it. Forty maxillary dentures were made with two polymerization systems (DS system and SR-Ivocap system). The dentures were divided into two groups: (1) the unreinforced dentures (control) and (2) the dentures reinforced with metal wire 1·0 mm in diameter. Discrepancies between the denture base and the stone cast were measured at five points immediately after polymerization and after a 30-day immersion in water. The data were analysed using a two-way or one-way ANOVA test. Dentures reinforced with metal wire exhibited significantly lower adaptation to the stone cast than the unreinforced ones for each polymerization system. Immersion in water did not affect the adaptation of dentures reinforced with metal wire for each polymerization. Unreinforced dentures made by the DS system had significantly smaller discrepancies compared with the dentures processed with the SR-Ivocap system. The adaptation of the dentures reinforced with metal wire decreased in comparison with the unreinforced ones regardless of the polymerization method. This should be considered when metal wire is used clinically as reinforcement.
