Specificity in the Development of Vertical Connections in Cat Striate Cortex

The main efferent axons of pyramidal cells in layer 2/3 in the adult cat striate cortex make collateral connections specifically within layer 2/3 and layer 5 and avoid the intervening layer 4. Intracellular dye injections in vitro were used to determine how, during early postnatal development, this precise pattern of laminar connections was achieved. These investigations revealed that the pattern of collateral outgrowth was specific from the very earliest time that axons began sprouting collaterals. During the first postnatal week, sprouts were seen exclusively within layers 2/3 and 5; no evidence for a transient connection to layer 4 was observed. Furthermore, collaterals emerged simultaneously within layers 2/3 and 5, despite the large difference in the postmigratory ages of the two layers. By the end of the second postnatal week, the adult number of collaterals was achieved. Further elaboration of the local arbors occurred by repeated branching of already existing collaterals, rather than by addition of new collaterals to the main axon. These results demonstrate that the formation of local connections between cortical layers is highly specific, in contrast to the development of clustered horizontal connections by these same cells within layers 2/3 and 5, which involves extensive remodelling of local connections.     

Temporal stability of acetylcholinesterase staining in colonic and rectal neural tissue

Confirmation of the clinical diagnosis of Hirschsprung's disease on standard rectal suction biopsy requires demonstration of aganglionosis in 60 adequate serial sections of submucosa. Positive staining for acetylcholinesterase (AChE), demonstrating an increase in nerve fibres within the lamina propria, muscularis mucosae, and subjacent submucosa, is a useful adjunctive test. In this study, sections of distal colonic muscularis propria and rectal mucosa were stained for AChE over a period of days following storage at 4 °C and at room temperature (15–20 °C). Positive staining of neural tissue was demonstrated in specimens stored at 4 °C for up to 14 days, at which time the experiment was discontinued due to tissue autolysis. Positive staining of the myenteric plexus in colonic specimens stored at room temperature also continued until tissue dissolution became marked at 5 days. This study has demonstrated stability of AChE staining of intestinal neural tissue in specimens stored at 4 °C for 14 days, which suggests that reliable staining for AChE should still be achievable if rectal biopsies are taken in clinics/hospitals without access to staining facilities, provided that tissues are transferred (fresh and moist, at 4 °C) to a reference laboratory for staining within several days of the biopsy procedure.

抗脑抗体对精神分裂症自身免疫反应的探讨

目的探讨精神分裂症患者脑脊液中抗脑抗体(ABAb)的致病作用。方法应用ELISA法检测患者脑脊液抗脑抗体，并对患者尸解脑组织进行免疫组化染色和病理学检验。结果患者脑脊液中有73．9％(34／46)检出抗脑抗体；在脑右侧扣带回、海马及胼胝体等脑组织神经元细胞胞浆中发现IgG和补体C3沉着；脑组织呈现明显的多种退行性改变，伴胶质细胞增生。结论抗脑抗体可能参与精神分裂症自身免疫反应，使患者脑内某些部位出现自身抗体沉着并引起补体活化，而导致脑组织病理性改变。     

旋毛形线虫体细胞的分离及活性检测

Supravital staining: It's role in detecting early malignancies

The efficacy of supravital staining in the detection of malignancies in oro and oropharyngeal lesions and its role in the detection of malignant changes in premalignant lesions were studied. This prospective study comprises 90 cases of clinically suspicious lesions and it was done over a period of 3 years. Most of the patients had multiple risk factors for the development of malignancy. All underwent staining with a modified solution of 1% toluidine blue (TB). In our study the overall sensitivity was 97.29% and the specificity was 62.5%.
