    Notes:
    Several second messenger systems have been implicated in mediating the action of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone on the pituitary gonadotrophs and numerous studies have shown that activation of these systems induces luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion. However, it is not known how gonadotrophin-releasing hormone or the second messenger systems induce de novo LH biosynthesis and post-translational modification of the hormone. In these experiments hemipituitary glands have been perifused with drugs which activate second messengers or stimulate protein kinase C directly. The LH secretory responses have been correlated with measurements of common a and LHβ mRNA and the molecular species of LH which were present in the pituitary perifusate after exposure to the drugs.Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (50 ng/ml, 42 nM), with and without the presence of extracellular Ca2+, the Ca2+ ionophore, A23187 (10 μM), and phorbol 12-myristate (1 μM) all stimulated an increase in LHβ mRNA compared with controls and the appearance of a different isoform of LH to that found stored in and released from the unstimulated pituitary gland. Phospholipase C was without effect on LHβ mRNA levels and showed minimal efficacy in inducing the appearance of the different LH isoform.

    Notes:
    From 1987 to 1989 a campaign to promote the early detection of cutaneous malignant melanoma was conducted in the areas of seven health authorities in England and Scotland (total population 3.6 million). Data were collected on 17.155 patients attending pigmented lesion clinics (PLCs) in each study area during the campaign. After a dramatic rise in PLC referral rates in the first month of the campaign the average monthly referral rate among the target population in the study period settled to an average of l3 per 105, a twofold increase compared with the pre-campaign period. Over 85% of patients at all PLCs were seen within 4 weeks of referral from their general practitioners. The melanoma to non-melanoma detection ratio was (1:33). The organization of future early detection initiatives needs careful review and planning, in order to improve their effectiveness in all sections of the population, and to enable health services to cope with the increased work-toad.

    Notes:
    The effect on the detection and characteristics of melanoma, resulting from the Cancer Research Campaign's health education programme to promote the early detection of melanoma in the general population, was studied from 1987 to 1989. The seven study areas in England and Scotland yield a target population of 3.6 million. Data were collected from local clinic-based registers, pathology laboratories, and the cancer registries. The average annual incidence rates of melanoma were seven and 12 per 105 in males and females, respectively, age-standardized to England and Wales, 1988. These rates are similar to the national figures for Scotland, where there is a national melanoma register, but higher than those reported by the English and Welsh cancer registries. The incidence was significantly higher in females than males (P〈(0.001), and increased with age. Fifty-three per cent and 65% of cases in males and females, respectively, were thin (Breslow thickness ≤1.5 mm), similar to the national figures from Scotland. No significant decrease in the incidence of late-stage tumours was found in either sex as a result of the campaign. Because of difficulties with ascertainment of cases in England, the main evaluation will focus on future trends in mortality rates for melanoma.

    Abstract Keyes' method of non-surgical therapy was compared with modified Widman flap surgery in 9 patients with symmetrical periodontal disease. Following an initial oral hygiene programme, baseline measurements were recorded and paired contralateral areas were subjected randomly to the 2 techniques. 42 teeth receiving surgery were compared with 40 treated by Keyes' method. 6 sites per tooth were scored immediately prior to therapy and 3 months later, using a constant force probe with onlays. Consistent data were recorded for the 6 separate sites, which showed no baseline difference between treatments, slightly greater recession with surgery at 3 months, but no difference between treatments in probing depth and attachment levels. Mean data for individual patients showed similar consistency. Probing depth in deep sites was reduced slightly more with surgery, and there were no differences in bleeding on probing at 3 months. Both techniques gave marked improvements in health. Surprisingly, only 2 subjects preferred Keyes' technique of mechanical therapy, 6 preferred surgery, and 1 had no preference.

    Summary The effects of long- and short-term streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus on the control of gonadotrophin secretion have been investigated in adult intact rats. A high dose of streptozotocin (80 mg/kg), administered intraperitoneally 3 days before experimentation, inhibited ovulation and reduced the pituitary luteinizing hormone response to luteinizing hormone releasing hormone in proestrous rats. A lower dose (40 mg/kg) did not inhibit ovulation but abolished the luteinizing hormone releasing hormone-priming effect on the pituitary which normally occurs on proestrus, prior to ovulation. Oestrous cyclicity was lost when diabetes was induced for 14 or 56 days, but there was no effect on pituitary responsiveness to luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone compared with control animals. Similar observations were made with rats placed on a food-restricted diet. In all experiments there was no difference between diabetic and control animals in the pituitary luteinizing hormone content, the hypothalamic content of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone or the ovarian weights. Ovariectomized rats treated with streptozotocin (40 mg/kg) were used to investigate the effects of diabetes on steroid feedback mechanisms. There was an attenuated luteinizing hormone response to ovariectomy in diabetic compared with control animals, and an impaired positive feedback effect of progesterone in oestrogen-primed animals. The results show that streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus inhibits feedback action of gonadal steroids and this could account for both the loss of oestrous cyclicity and the reduced pituitary sensitivity to luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone.

    Notes:
    Summary Chronic ovariectomized rats treated neonatally with MSG showed reduced circulating concentrations of LH coupled with elevated hypothalamic LHRH stores. Despite the apparent loss of LHRH secretion, the small pituitary glands showed an increased density of LHRH receptors and normal responsiveness to the releasing hormone. The positive feedback effects of progesterone on LH release in oestrogen-primed animals was greatly exaggerated reflecting the build-up of hypothalamic LHRH stores without loss of pituitary responsiveness to LHRH.

    Notes:
    Summary We have compared two components of bacterial cell walls, muramyl dipeptide (MDP) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS), for their effects on bone resorption as measured by the release of previously incorporated45Ca. MDP is the smallest active component of peptidoglycan, whereas LPS is the active component of endotoxin. Fetal rat long bones were cultured for 5 days in a chemically defined medium supplemented with bovine serum albumin (BSA) or serum. LPS increased45Ca release at concentrations of 0.03–1.0 µg/ml. LPS further purified by electrolytic dialysis (ED-LPS) was active at 0.01 µg/ml. ED-LPS was ineffective at such low concentrations in the presence of serum. The response to MDP was more variable than that to LPS, but bone resorption was stimulated at concentrations of 10−7–10−5 M. MDP was less effective or inactive in medium supplemented with serum. Stereoisomers of MDP that do not have adjuvant activity caused minimal stimulation of bone resorption, whereas 6-0-steroyl MDP stimulated resorption at 10−8 M. The stimulation of bone resorption by LPS and MDP was not inhibited by indomethacin. Both LPS and MDP increased lysosomal enzyme release in proportion to their effects on45Ca release. LPS also markedly increased collagenase activity in the medium, but MDP did not. These results indicate that chemically different products of bacterial cell walls can stimulate bone resorption in vitro. These products may be distinguished by differences in dose response curve, serum inhibition, and collagenase release.

    Notes:
    Abstract Mössbauer measurements using 57Fe and 155Gd have been made on samples of ball-milled Nd2Fe14B in a gadolinium matrix in order to determine the magnetisation of each phase separately. Although magnetometer measurements did not show any coercivity, both measurements showed the phases were in intimate magnetic contact. The spectra of each phase differed considerably from those of the respective original materials and provide information on the conduction electron polarisation through the transferred hyperfine fields.
