| histology and ultrastructure of the r-3327 c-f transplantable prostate tumor of cophenhagen-fisher rats. | the r-3327 c-f tumor is an adenocarcinoma of the prostate maintained by serial transplantation in male copenhagen-fisher hybrid rats. the tumor is histologically different from other tumor sublines derived from the original r-3327 tumor discovered in 1961 in an aged copenhagen rat. light and electron microscopy have shown that the r-3327 c-f tumor contains a well organized glandular epithelium with myoepithelial cells and a continuous basement membrane, although epithelial cells were much less d ... | 1978 | 711418 |
| homicide and community-based psychiatry. | the authors studied the records of all persons convicted of homicide or found not guilty by reason of insanity during the uears 1963 through 1975, 6 years before and after the opening of the community-based psychiatric facility, in albany county, new york. using the fisher exact probability test, a statistically significant increase was found for those found not guilty by reason of insanity (p = .041) and those with a history of mental illness found guilty (p = .036). other factors, including ag ... | 1978 | 722309 |
| freeze-fracture autoradiography: the in-vacuo coating technique. | freeze-fracture autoradiography (ffa) was introduced in 1976 as a new method for electron microscopic autoradiography of diffusible compounds (fisher and branton, rix et al.). with the original technique, the film monolayer was applied to the cold specimen in a cryostat at atmospheric pressure. coating under these conditions did not exclude the risk of artifacts, mainly due to uncontrolled ice contamination of the cold specimen surface. a new method has been developed for coating the frozen spec ... | 1978 | 738908 |
| metabolic clearance of endogenous and radioiodinated thyroglobulin in rats. | the basal concentration and metabolic clearance of radiolabeled and endogenous thyroglobulin (tg) were measured in normal male rats. serum tg concentrations (by ria) in sprague-dawley adult males ranged from 70-680 ng/ml (mean +/- sd, 218 +/- 177). in male fisher rats, basal serum tg concentrations were 32-263 ng/ml. the fractional disappearance rate of endogenously radioiodinated rat tg and of endogenous rat tg after thyroidectomy were both about 8%/h. the mcr of endogenously labeled tg was 2.4 ... | 1978 | 744090 |
| synthesis of some 11h-indolo[3,2-c][1,8]naphthyridines. | the preparation of some 11h-indolo[3,2-c] [1,8]naphthyridines (v), having oxygen functions at positions 3 or 3 and 10 or 3 and 8, as in steroidal active compounds, is described. compounds (v) were obtained using the fisher indole synthesis. the preparation of the parent nucleus: 11h-indolo [3,2-c] [1,8]naphthyridines (v n) is also described. some compounds were subjected to pharmacological screening, but none was found to be significantly active. | 1978 | 744236 |

| s-phase fractions of breast carcinomas. relationships to morphology, estrogen and progesterone receptors, and early recurrence. | analysis of the s-phase fractions (spf) measured by in vitro thymidine labeling, morphological appearances, and estrogen receptor (er) assays of primary invasive breast carcinomas demonstrated several interrelationships. lobular, mucinous, tubular, and adenocystic carcinomas consistently had low spf and were usually positive for er. the same was true for the carcinomas of no special histologic type [the not otherwise specified (nos) group of e. r. fisher including "infiltrating ductal" and undif ... | 1978 | 747801 |
| inbreeding effects in a coastal village and other parts of andhra pradesh. | a survey was carried out among fisher-women in pallepalam, in nellore district of andhra pradesh, to determine the prevalence and pattern of consanguinity and its effects on fertility, mortality, and morbidity. of the 106 marriages investigated, 54.72% were consanguineous with predominant proportions of first cousin (36.79%) and uncle-niece (13.21%) marriages. the average inbreeding coefficients for autosomal and sex-linked genes were found to be 0.0405 and 0.0448 respectively. the differences b ... | 1978 | 751385 |

| the rate of skin allografts within the prostate. | there is good evidence demonstrating the absence of lymphatic drainage in the normal glandular prostate. in other organs, such as the brain and anterior chamber of the eye, this property is associated with an impaired response to foreign tissue antigens. we have examined the first set allograft survival of normal skin transplanted between strains of male inbred rats (lewis leads to fisher) to various sites including the prostate. the resulting data indicate that the prostate is not an immunologi ... | 1976 | 786938 |

| serotyping of pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from patients with cystic fibrosis of the pancreas. | pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates (173) from 144 patients with cystic fibrosis (cf) of the pancreas in seven hospitals were serotyped with the agglutination systems of homma (1974) and fisher et al. (1969). the two systems were complementary. strains from cf patients were much less likely to furnish a stable type on repetitive typing tests than strains from other patients. this was related to the frequent occurrence of mucoid p. aeruginosa strains. the 173 strains were divided among 11 homma serot ... | 1975 | 809484 |
| genetics of the rh-hr locus in humans. | an analysis is attempted to throw more light on the inheritance of rhesus factor in humans and the fisher-race and wiener's concepts are respectively evaluated. it is claimed that the rh-hr locus is not comprised of the recombination of c, d, e, c and e genes, much less the help of the auxiliary (d) which merely appears to be a conventional approach derived from an even principle of recombination for a polyhybrid cross. as for wiener's rare or common mutants of rh-hr in humans and the emergence ... | 1975 | 817554 |
| role of galactose in the antigenic properties of thyroglobulin. | thyroglobulins (tg) from a "hot" human thyroid nodule and from fisher rats have been purified and the effects of progressive removal of sialic acid and galactose on the immunoreactive properties of the proteins were studied. terminal sialic acid and galactose were released by stepwise hydrolysis with neuraminidase and beta-galactosidase. agalacto-tg shows a slower electrophoretic mobility than native tg, but in polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoelectrophoresis it migrates in the same ... | 1976 | 822669 |
| measurement of acute and chronic behavioural effects of methamphetamine in the mouse. | a simple and reliable method was developed for rating the dose-related behavioural effects of methamphetamine in male swiss albino mice for acute or chronic drug treatment. this procedure was based on a frequency count of certain behaviours made at 15-min intervals over a 90-min period following drug administration. the fisher randomization procedure was adapted to analyze behavioural data for the chronic studies. clear-cut, dose-related behavioural responses occurred following acute (+)-methamp ... | 1976 | 823582 |

| erythrocyte membrane plaques from rats with magnesium deficiency. | this study investigated the anemia of dietary magnesium deficiency in inbred fisher white rats using freeze-fracture electron microscopy. the plasma membranes of erythrocytes from animals receiving two different magnesium-deficient and control diets were observed at weekly or biweekly intervals for 6 wk. the earliest changes were small plaques on the external surface (es) and fracture face (pf) of erythrocyte plasma membranes, which occurred after 2 wk of either magnesium-deficient diet. these p ... | 1977 | 843624 |
| effects of a zinc deficient diet upon fluid intake in the rat. | zinc deficient rats demonstrate an increased intake of sodium chloride (nacl) containing solutions as compared to normal rats, presumably related to decreased taste acuity. the purpose of this study was to determine if zinc deficient rats would show altered intake of other solutions since changes in nacl intake may be reflective of serious pathophysiologic processes not related to taste. eight littermate pairs of inbred fisher cdf rats, 29 days of age, were divided into two groups and individual ... | 1977 | 845680 |
| is the biomechanical principle of 'antagonistic compensation' valid also on the genetic level? | according to 'antagonistic compensation', appendicular bones rendered hypofunctional by surgical means, become shorter and more robust. in normal buffalo rats, appendicular bones are short and very robust and in fisher rats they are long and gracile. total body constitution is robust in buffalo rats and gracile in fisher rats. in grl rats, appendicular bones are short but body constitution is gracile and the robusticity of the appendicular bones is intermediate between fischer and buffalo rats. ... | 1977 | 848266 |

| the vehicle tray revisited: the use of the vehicle tray in assessing allergic contact dermatitis by a 24-hour application method. | over 700 patients were screened by patch testing for sensitivity to the components of a vehicle tray from july 1974 through june 1976 at the mayo clinic. a modified version of the vehicle tray originally suggested by fisher et al. (1971) was used, containing 14 substances commonly found in vehicles. patches were applied for 24 rather than the usual 48 hours. our percentage of reactivity compares favorably with the 48-h application method, thus demonstrating the efficacy of this time-saving techn ... | 1977 | 891174 |
| the evolution of epistasis and the advantage of recombination in populations of bacteriophage t4. | experiments reported here test two hypotheses about the evolution of recombination: first, the fisher-muller concept that sexual organisms respond to selection more rapidly than do asexual ones, and second, that epistasis is more likely to evolve in the absence of recombination. populations of bacterio-phage t4 were selected by the drug proflavine in discrete generations and the change in mean population fitness was monitored. three separate selection series yielded results supporting the fisher ... | 1977 | 892424 |
| effect of oil composition on both adjuvant-induced arthritis and delayed hypersensitivity to purified protein derivative and peptidoglycans in various rat strains. | we confirmed that, when immunized with a conventional complete freund adjuvant (water in oil), lewis rats were highly susceptible to adjuvant arthritis, fisher rats were less susceptible, and buffalo rats were much less susceptible. however, mycobacterial delipidated cells in squalane (squalane-type adjuvant) produced severe arthritis with almost 100% incidence even in the less susceptible rat strains except for buffalo rats. with regard to an immune response, freund complete adjuvant induced st ... | 1977 | 892904 |
| [numerical procedure for the decomposition of biorhythmic processes into harmonic oscillating components]. | a numerical procedure for decomposition of time series into inherent periodic nonstochastic components in form of harmonic oscillations will be explained. it is supposed that the rhythmic process is built up by these harmonic oscillating components and by a stochastic component. the procedure is a combination of harmonic analyses for intervals with different numbers of measured values with a significance test elaborated by r.a. fisher for the greatest component in the spectrum. the parameter val ... | 1977 | 914007 |
| [from phlebothrombosis to the postthrombotic syndrome]. | the same pathomechanism causes both thrombosis of the superficial and deep veins. for practical purposes one may separate phlebothrombosis of bed-patients and that of out-patients. superficial phlebothrombosis and thrombophlebitis of the out-patients heal in shorter time by compression according to heinrich fisher. patients should not be immobilized. phlebothrombosis of the bed-patient should be reserved to clinical therapy including fibrinolysis, thrombectomy and anticoagulants. the post-thromb ... | 1977 | 914157 |
| peripheral nerve conduction in miller fisher syndrome. | two cases of acute ophthalmoplegia, ataxia, and arreflexia with high csf protein are reported (miller fisher syndrome). detailed emg and nerve conduction studies showed abnormal conduction in peripheral sensory fibres from the initial stages of the illness in both patients. careful review up to 10 months after the onset was required to document the sensory conduction abnormality properly in one of them. the electrical findings did not differ from those that can be seen in the guillain-barré synd ... | 1977 | 925702 |
| polyradiculitis (landry-guillain-barré syndrome) with total external ophthalmoplegia: encephalo-myelo-radiculo-neuropathy. | total ophthalmoplegia is described in an eight-year-old boy with polyradiculitis. the findings suggest central nervous system involvement. it is postulated that this case represents an entity intermediate between the miller-fisher and the landry-guillain-barré syndromes, with features of brain-stem encephalitis. | 1976 | 939350 |
| creativity and body image boundaries. | descriptions of the creative individual or the individual who can regress in the service of the ego seem to parallel fisher and cleveland's (1968) description of the high barrier individual: well-integrated; self-sufficient, but often outgoing and communicative; and able to experience a full range of sensation and emotions without neurotic anxiety. the relationships between barrier and five measures associated with creativity were investigated, using 100 paid male college student volunteers. the ... | 1976 | 943498 |
| estimates of the heritability of serum lipoprotein and lipid concentrations. | heritability (h2) of a serum lipid or a serum lipoprotein concentration is the proportion of variability in that concentration, among individuals, which is associated with heredity. we derive a familiar formula for estimating heritability (h2) from a simple linear model for inheritance. the formula was implied by fisher (1918) and by wright (1921); it was derived from a consideration of variances by jensen (1967), and from a consideration of path coefficients by rao et al. (1974). the estimate o ... | 1976 | 945139 |
| feminization of hepatic s metabolism in male rats with a transplanted (mtt/f4). | after transplantation of mtt/f4 pituitary tumor cells to male rats of the fisher strain, the masculine type of hepatic steroid metabolism was changed into a feminine pattern of enzyme activities. liver metabolism of steroid hormones in female rats was relatively unaffected following transplantation of pituitary tumor cells. futhermore, extract from mtt/f4 tumors and "autonomous" pituitary tissue increased the 5alpha-reductase activity of hepatoma cells in the culture (htc cells) at subsaturation ... | 1976 | 947549 |

| a model for assortative mating. | it is shown that a generalization of the hardy-weinberg law of the proportions of genotypes of the kind given by wright (1922) is maintained in equilibrium by a pattern of assortative mating suggested by fisher (1918) and elaborated by malécot (1939, 1948). | 1976 | 952488 |
| composite sampling. | in sampling certain types of materials, such as bags of fertilizer, or subsampling large quantities of water, as might be done in investigating the density of plankton in certain environmental situations, it is customary to composite the samples. that is, several samples are drawn, mixed into a composite sample, and a sample taken from the composite is then used to determine relevant characteristics of the population. in this paper the results of brown and fisher [1972] are extended to more comp ... | 1976 | 953130 |

| constitution and body proportions in different strains of rats. a study of race formation in breeding isolates. | (1) there are considerable differences in body constitution in different strains of rats, ranging from very robust to very gracile forms. the differences are greater in the larger males than in the smaller females. (2)craniofacial and postcranial proportions of the trunk in domesticated strains of rats differ either uniformly or mosaically from the wild form. (3)nasal shape differs greatly in rats ranging from extreme leptorrhine to extreme platyrrhine forms, giving a total range greater than in ... | 1976 | 961343 |
| the evolutionary advantage of recombination. ii. individual selection for recombination. | based on the fisher-muller theory of the evolution of recombination, an argument can be constructed predicting that a recessive allele favoring recombination will be favored, if there are either favorable or deleterious mutants occurring at other loci. in this case there is no clear distinction between individual and group selection. computer simulation of populations segregating for recessive or dominant recombination alleles showed selection favoring recombination, except in the case of a domi ... | 1976 | 971808 |
| age-related changes in the lipid metabolism of fisher 344 rats. | lipid metabolism of male fisher 344 rats aged 2-24 months was studied. serum and liver cholesterol levels did not display the age-related gradual increase seen in other rat strains. an increase in the serum plus liver cholesterol pool from 2 to 6 months was followed by a plateau through 18 months and then another increase at 24 months of age. the triglyceride pool increased from 2 to 6 months and then remained unchanged through 24 months of age. cholesterol synthesis from acetate decreased 50% b ... | 1976 | 972580 |
| automated rodent respiratory monitor and histogram computer--a preliminary report. | the system described in this paper was designed to monitor total inhaled volume (v), tidal volume (vt), and respiratory frequency (f) of fisher rats before, during, and after exposure to cigarette smoke. the systems consists of three major subsystems: plethysmograph, analog signal conditioner, and histogram computer. the volume type whole body plethysmograph incorporates a rubber nose seal. tidal flow rate (v) from the tube, measured by a pneumotachometer, is integrated by the signal conditionin ... | 1976 | 977275 |
| evidence for dimensional independence in short-term memory of retarded individuals. | this experiment was designed to assess the relative importance of dimensional similarity between test and interpolated problems and absolute difficulty of interpolated material as variables influencing short-term retention in the discrimination learning of retarded persons. twenty moderate-to-borderline retarded individuals were taught a mixed series of two-trial discriminations consisting of: (a) relatively easy multidimensional ("junk") problems and (b) more difficult, form-relevant dotpattern ... | 1976 | 985634 |
| androgen receptor dependent and independent activities of testosterone on hepatic microsomal drug metabolism. | administration of testosterone for 6 days to intact female and castrate male balb/cj mice stimulated hepatic microsomal ethylmorphine n-demethylase activity and cytochrome p-450 content by 50-75%. testosterone also stimulated hepatic microsomal nadph-oxidase activity, but to a lesser degree. to probe the mechanism of this effect of androgens, two antiandrogens (cyproterone acetate and flutamide) were employed. since cyproterone acetate was a potent stimulator of hepatic microsomal ethylmorphine ... | 1976 | 991826 |
| [cross resistance in tumor cells and staphylococci with respect to anthracycline-group antineoplastic antibiotics]. | the variants of the tumor cells of fisher lymphadenosis, strain l-5178 and staph. aureus resistant to rubomycin simultaneously became partially less sensitive to adriamycin. sensitivity to karminomycin in the rubomycin resistant strains did not practically change as compared to the sensitivity of the initial strains. sensitivity to adriamycin and rubomycin in staph. aureus decreased 67 and 4 times respectively after 7 passages on media with increasing concentrations of adriamycin, while sensitiv ... | 1976 | 999240 |
| [cranial polyradiculitis or the so-called fisher syndrome]. | in the light of 3 personally observed cases a description is given of polyradiculitis cranialis or socalled fisher's syndrome, a separate form of guillain-barre-strohl polyradiculitis. it is a combination of acute ataxia, areflexia and ophthalmoplegia. the cause is probably an immunological reaction to a harmless infectious disease. reversible or limited demyelination is assumed. the demyelination occurs particularly in the peripheral nerves and their spinal roots, but also in the spinal-cerebel ... | 1976 | 1013715 |

| is sex maintained to facilitate or minimise mutational advance? | there are two alternative hypotheses for the selective advantages of sex: (i) the "fisher-muller" model:sex facilitates evolutionary adaptation to chaning environments. (ii) the "rachet" model: sex minimises the mutational load. the relative importance of these hypotheses is discussed with reference to (a) comparative data on sexual and asexual reproduction, (b) the timing of sex in species with asexual/sexual alternation, (c) the advantages of haploid/diploid alternation, (d) the disadvantage a ... | 1976 | 1064588 |

| endogenous intestinal metallothionein possibly contributes to the renal accumulation of cadmium. | at low levels of dietary cadmium chloride, cadmium accumulates directly in the kidneys and not in the liver. as dietary cadmium induces intestinal metallothionein (mt), intestinal cdmt complexes could be at least partly responsible for the renal accumulation of oral cadmium. for this to be possible, however, serosal release of mucosal cdmt would be required. to test this hypothesis, we perfused isolated rat small intestinal segments (fisher-parsons method) in an attempt to demonstrate the releas ... | 1992 | 1303945 |
