the uptake of horseradish peroxidase by cortical synapses in rat brain. an in vivo study.horseradish peroxidase (hrp) was introduced directly into the cerebral cortex of adult rats, which were allowed to survive for 60 min before perfusion fixation. after the tissue had been incubated to demonstrate hrp at the lm and em levels, blocks of cortical tissue were taken at varying distances from the injection site. these eight blocks of tissue constituted a time sequence for hrp diffusion. qualitative examination of the presynaptic terminals showed that the most commonly encountered profi ...1977844083
afferent connections of the habenular nuclei in the rat. a horseradish peroxidase study, with a note on the fiber-of-passage problem.the afferent connections of the habenular complex in the rat were examined by injecting horseradish peroxidase (hrp) into discrete portions of the habenular nuclei by microelectrophoresis. 1. hrp deposits confined to the lateral half of the lateral habenular nucleus labeled a multitude of cells in the entopeduncular nucleus. numerous labeled cells also appeared in such cases in the lateral hypothalamus, indicating that the lateral habenular nucleus is a major convergence point of projections fro ...1977845280
the commissural projection of the superior colliculus in the cat.the origin, course, and termination of the commissural projection of the superior colliculus were studied using the orthograde and autoradiographic tracing method and the retrograde method utilizing horseradish peroxidase. the complementary and mutually confirming sets of data showed that the commissural fibers interconnect a restricted region of the colliculi. this region includes the strata grisea intermedium and profundum and to a lesser degree the stratum opticum. it extends throughout only ...1977845285
increased vesicular transfer of horseradish peroxidase across cerebral endothelium, evoked by acute hypertension.acute hypertension in rats was produced by intravenous infusion of metaraminol bitartrate (aramine). the permeability to intravenously injected horseradish peroxidase (hrp) was increased across the cerebral arterioles, capillaries and venules. from the basement membranes of the vessel walls the protein tracer moved into the extracellular spaces of the adjacent neuropil. no endothelial cell damage was observed. the tight junctions between endothelial cells were intact and prevented intercellular ...1977848278
amino-acid sequences of heme-linked, histidine-containing peptides of five peroxidases from horseradish and turnip.in a previous paper we have characterized five plant peroxidases, p1, p2, p3 and p7 of turnip and horseradish isoperoxidase c by peptide mapping studies, and only found two highly homologous sequences present in all. both contained histidine. the findings supported previous suggestions of two histidine sequences nearthe peroxidase heme prostetic group. in the present paper we present the amino acid sequences around the histidine residues of all four turnip peroxidases, i. e. of 25 residues aroun ...1977849740
attachment and ingestion of mycoplasmas by mouse macrophages. ii. scanning electron microscopic observations.mycoplasmas adhere closely to the central region of the surface of mouse peritoneal macrophages in vitro. they do not appear connected to each other or the macrophage membrane, and they induce no change in the surface of the cell. after addition of antimycoplasma antibody, mycoplasmas show interconnections and the cell shows an increase occurrence of ruffled membrane and folding over the mycoplasmas. large and small lacunae appear in the membrane at sites other than those taking in organisms, an ...1977851171
thalamic projections to parietal cortex.thalamic projections to parietal regions of cerebral cortex were investigated in the cat by retrograde degeneration and retrograde transport techniques. studies of retrograde cellular changes indicate cortically projecting cells in the lateroporterior nucleus (lp), rostral pulvinar (pul), and the ventral part of the laterodorsal nucleus (ld). when lesions were placed in the cortex of young kittens, clear chromatolytic changes and cell loss were also consistently observed in middle and caudal par ...1977851845
convergence of excitatory synaptic inputs to caudate spiny neurons.intracellular recordings were obtained from cat caudate nucleus neurons. these cells responded with convergent, monosynaptic epsps to cerebral cortex, intralaminar thalamus, and substantia nigra stimulation. intracellular injection of horseradish peroxidase into these electrophysiologically defined neurons shows that they represent the spiny neuron of the caudate based upon somadendritic morphology. the axons of these cells are appreciably longer than previous reports indicate. several lines of ...1977851861
permeability and patency of retinal blood vessels in experimental diabetes.increased permeability of retinal blood vessels in human diabetic retinopathy is well known clinically. its morphologic equivalent is unknown. in dogs with 5 years of poorly controlled alloxan diabetes and nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy comparable to that of man, permeability and patency of retinal blood vessels were tested with the protein tracer horseradish peroxidase and evaluated by electron microscopy. a breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier was found associated with extensive trace ...1977852945

internalization of lectins in neuronal gerl.conjugates of ricin agglutinin and phytohemagglutinin with horseradish peroxidase (hrp) were used for a cytochemical study of internalization of their plasma membrane "receptors" in cultured isolated mouse dorsal root ganglion neurons. labeling of cells with lectin-hrp was done at 4 degrees c, and internalization was performed at 37 degrees c in a culture medium free of lectin-hrp. 15-20 min after incubation at 37 degrees c, lectin-hrp receptor complexes were seen in vesicles or tubules located ...1977856827
the organization of the pulvinar in the grey squirrel (sciurus carolinensis). i. cytoarchitecture and connections.the posterior neocortex in the grey squirrel, sciurus carolinensis, includes an extensive region which receives projections from the pulvinar. previous studies have demonstrated that this cortical region can be subdivided on the basis of differences in cytoarchitecture and electrophysiologically defined representations of the visual field. the main purpose of the present paper was to determine whether these cortical subdivisions could be related to corresponding subdivisions in the pulvinar. the ...1977856889
anatomy of interhemispheric connections in the visual system of boston siamese and ordinary cats.in siamese cats, previous studies have shown that a genetic mutation causes retinogeniculate fibers in each eye which arise from the temporal retina representing the 20 degrees of ipsilateral visual field adjacent to the vertical meridian to cross aberrantly in the optic chiasm, thereby terminating in the wrong lateral geniculate nucleus. the abnormality is expressed subsequently at the level of the visual cortex. this paper presents anatomical evidence that the pattern of commissural visual con ...1977856894
the projection from the lateral geniculate nucleus onto the visual cortex in the cat. a quantitative study with horseradish-peroxidase.horseradish-peroxidase (hrp) was injected (9-18 microng in 0.03-0.06 micronl) into cortical areas 17, 18 or 19 of 11 adult cats. after survival times of 17 hours to 7 days, the thalamus was examined for retrogradely hrp labelled nerve cells in serial transverse sections. from these sections, the percentage of labelled cells occurring in each subdivision of the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (lgnd) was calculated for each animal. one case each for injections in areas 17, 18, and 19 was then ch ...1977856895
site of horseadish peroxidase transport by the small intestine of the neonatal rat.the absorption of horseradish peroxidase was estimated in 10-day-old rats by measuring plasma peroxidase levels following intraduodenal admininstration. peak levels occurred 45 min after injection. plasma peroxidase levels, 45 min after injection into five ligated segments along the small intestine, were significantly lower in rats with distal segments than in rats with proximal segments. this indicates that the proximal small intestine, including the duodenum, may play a significant role in non ...1977861316

ultrastructural characteristics of the brain and blood-brain barrier in experimental seizures.during experimental seizures, the blood-brain barrier (bbb) is broken; tracer substances such as i131-albumin, evans blue and horseradish peroxidase (hrp) geographically locate the barrier breakdown primarily in the diencephalon. using rats, we have induced seizures with electroshocks and demonstrated the breakdown of the bbb with evans blue and hrp. we have shown that (1) the bbb breakdown is proportional to the number of electroconvulsant shocks (es) given; (2) the mechanism of increased barri ...1977861758
control of density and microredistribution of concanavalin-a receptors in rat thymocytes at 4 degrees c.in a previous paper, we reported that at 4 degrees c, a cooperative binding of concanavalin a to rat thymocytes is observed which corresponds to a modification of the membrane leading to the recruitment of receptors and their immobilization. in this paper, we report that both phenomena are modulated at 4 degrees c by drugs such as colchicine and cytochalasin b; cooperative binding of concanavalin a, which reflects receptor recruitment is only slightly modified by each drug alone. when the two dr ...1977862619

effect of mixed solvents on the formation of horseradish peroxidase compound i. the importance of diffusion-controlled reactions.in aqueous glycerol solutions, the rate constant for the formation of compound i of horseradish peroxidase from hydrogen peroxide is independent of the viscosity. however, whem m-chloroperbenzoic acid is used to form compound i, the rate is viscosity dependent, indicating that this reaction is diffusion controlled. the problems in obtaining accurate information about diffusion-controlled reactions are discussed as is the possible significance of diffusion control. ethanol has been used in previo ...1977880290
descending connections between superior olivary and cochlear nuclear complexes in the cat studied by autoradiographic and horseradish peroxidase methods.the descending pathways from the superior olivary complex (so) to the cochlear nuclear complex (cn) were investigated in 58 cats using labelled aminoacid and horseradish peroxidase transport techniques. descending connections were found coursing bilaterally through the trapezoid body (tb) and ipsilaterally in the intermediate and dorsal acoustic striae. the dorsolateral periolivary nucleus (dlpo) sends fibres through both the intermediate and dorsal striae, which are joined by others from the la ...1977880993
direct projections from thalamic intralaminar nuclei to extra-striate visual cortex in the cat traced with horseradish peroxidase.thalamic projections to the visual cortex were investigated using the horseradish peroxidase tracing technique. besides confirmation of a distinct origin of thalamic projections to striate and extra-striate visual cortex, afferents of the intralaminar nuclei (iln) to visual cortex were demonstrated. these projections of iln were shown to be specific in that they terminate in areas 18, 19 and clare bishop but not area 17. the coupling of these intralaminar projections on to the extra-striate visu ...1977880998
ultrastructural observations of the abducens nucleus of the cat after injection of horseradish peroxydase into the lateral rectus muscle.the ultrastructure of cat abducens motoneurones is described, after labelling by retrograde axonal transport of horseradish peroxydase. the motoneurones were densely covered with synaptic boutons of both the "terminal" and "en passant" types and axo-axonal synapses were observed on the initial segment of motoneurone axons. within the population of axons forming the vith nerve, multiple branching was encountered and axons closely apposed at the nodes of ranvier were seen.1977881006
