Diffuse type of senile plaques in the cerebellum of Alzheimer-type dementia demonstrated byβ protein immunostain

Summary We studied senile plaques (SP) in the cerebella of six autopsied subjects with Alzheimer-type dementia (ATD) and ten non-ATD autopsied subjects between the ages of 78 and 90. Neither SP nor amyloid angiopathy (AA) was observed in any of the non-ATD subjects. In the four of the six ATD subjects, diffuse plaques in the molecular layer were seen as ill-defined areas of fine fibrillar materials by protein immunostaining with formic acid pretreatment, the modified Bielschowsky stain, and periodic acid-methenamine silver (PAM) stain. The plaques were not visible with Bodian, Congo red, or periodic acid-Schiff stains. Compact plaques in the Purkinje cell or in the granular cell layers were found in three of the six subjects. Their amyloid core was often surrounded by areolar amyloid deposits. AA was observed in three of the six subjects. The argyrophilia of the diffuse and compact plaques, demonstrated by the modified Bielschowsky and PAM stains, became undetectable when the sections were first treated with formic acid. Such treatment made the plaques immunoreactive with protein antiserum. The findings suggested that cerebellar diffuse plaques and compact plaques consist mainly of an amyloid component, and are characteristic of ATD.

Characterization of NK cells and extrathymic T cells generated in the liver of irradiated mice with a liver shield

We previously reported that c-kit⁺ stem cells which give rise to extrathymic T cells are present in the liver of adult mice. Further characterization of extrathymic T cells in the liver of adult mice is conducted here. When mice with a liver shield were lethally (9.5 Gy) irradiated, all mice survived. All tested organs showed a distribution pattern of hepatic lymphocytes on day 7. The distribution pattern in the liver was characterized by an abundance of NK (CD3^? IL-2Rβ⁺) and extrathymic T cells (CD3^int IL-2Rβ⁺) before and after irradiation. To determine their function, post-irradiation allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) was performed in mice with or without a liver shield. Allogeneic BM cells were rejected in mice with a liver shield and specific activation of CD8⁺ CD3^int IL-2Rβ⁺ cells was induced. At that time, potent cytotoxicity of liver mononuclear cells (MNC) against allogeneic thymocytes was induced. Both NK1.1⁺ and NK1.1^? subsets of CD3^int cells expanded in these mice. An in vivo elimination experiment of the subsets indicated that the NK1.1⁺ subset of CD3^int cells (i.e. NK T cells) was much more associated with the rejection of allogeneic BM cells. However, even after the elimination of NK T cells, allogeneic BM cells were rejected. In this case, granulocytes expanded in parallel with NK1.1^? subsets. Granulocytes may also be associated with the rejection of allogeneic BM cells. These results suggest that the liver is an important haematopoietic organ even in adult life.     

Cannabinoid agonist, CP 55,940, facilitates intake of palatable foods when injected into the hindbrain

Cannabinoids have been shown to influence food intake, and until recently, the neural pathways mediating these effects have remained obscure. It has been previously shown that intracerebroventricular injection of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ⁹-THC) causes increased consumption of palatable foods in rats, and we postulated the involvement of the hindbrain in this cannabinoid-induced food intake. Cannulated rats (both female and male groups) trained to consume sweetened condensed milk received either lateral or fourth ventricle injections of CP 55,940 and were presented with sweetened condensed milk 15 min after injection. Rats were injected over a range of doses between 100 pg and 10 μg per rat. Milk intake was recorded for a total of 3 h. Lateral ventricle injection of CP 55,940 increased milk intake at doses in the microgram range. However, CP 55,940 was effective in increasing food intake at nanogram doses when injected into the fourth ventricle. Finally, male rats appeared to be more sensitive to CP 55,940 than female rats inasmuch as milk consumption was increased at the 1 ng dose in male rats, whereas only the 10 ng dose was effective in females. These results indicate that CP 55,940 may act in the hindbrain to influence feeding behavior in rats.     

Développement d’un hydrogel autodurcissant in vivo, en perspective d’un usage biomédicalA new self-hardening gel in prospect of biomedical use

Since 1995, an injectable bone substitute is developed in our laboratory, it is based on a mix of an hydrogel (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose at 3%: cellulose ether) and biphasic calcium phosphate granules (MBCP^® : 60% hydroxyapatite, 40% β-tri calcium phosphate). This first generation of injectable bone substitute is a non-self-hardening past, nevertheless it owns a great osteoconductor potential. But it shows a tendency to the discharge by its initial composition, and involved limited clinical applications. An evolution of this product is presented in this article: the modification is generated by a new self-hardening hydrogel. This hydrogel is a cellulose ether grafted by silane and diluted in an aqueous solution at basic pH. Also it will be presented the general synthesis of this cellulose derivate, the dissolution condition and the self hardening principle in function of the pH and the temperature. As to conclude by preliminary tests, the biocompatibility in vivo and in vitro of the self-hardening hydrogel mixed with biphasic calcium phosphate granules will be studied.     

Biosynthetic and regulatory role of lys9 mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Summary Derepression of lysine biosynthetic enzymes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was investigated in lys9 auxotrophs which lack saccharopine reductase activity. Five enzymes (homocitrate synthase, homoisocitrate dehydrogenase, -aminoadipate aminotransferase, -aminoadipate reductase and saccharopine dehydrogenase) were constitutively derepressed in all lys9 mutants with up to eight-fold higher enzyme levels than in isogenic wild-type cells. Levels of these enzymes in lys2, lys14, and lys15 S mutants were the same or lower than those in wild-type cells. The regulatory property of lys9 mutants exhibited recessiveness to the wild-type gene in heterozygous diploids. Unlike the mating type effect, homozygous diploids resulting from crosses between lys9 auxotrophs exhibited even higher levels of derepressed enzymes than the haploid mutants. Addition of a higher concentration of lysine to the growth medium resulted in reduction of enzyme levels although they were still derepressed. These results suggest that lys9 mutants represent a lesion for the saccharopine reductase and may represent a repressor mutation which in the wild-type cells simultaneously represses unlinked structural genes that encode for five of the lysine biosynthetic enzymes.
