neuroendocrine embryology and the apud concept.in the vertebrata the great majority of cells producing hormonal peptides belong to the apud series and share its distinctive cytochemical and ultrastructural characteristics. according to the concept all members of the series are to be regarded as derivatives of neuroectoderm or of specialized (placodal) ectoderm. for most of the apud cells this criterion is fulfilled in that their origin from neural tube, neural ridges or neural crest can be considered proven. complete proof is not yet availab ...200129734

cell-mediated immunity: delayed-type hypersensitivity and cytotoxic responses are mediated by different t-cell subclasses.cell-mediated immunity includes both the generation of cytotoxic cells and initiation of delayed-type hypersensitivity (dth). the resting t-cell population, before stimulation by antigen, already contains cells of the lyl subclass that are programmed to initiate dth (and helper function) but not cytotoxic responses, as well as ly23 cells which can generate killer activity (and suppressive function) but not dth. the central implication of these findings is that the broad division between humoral ...20011083891

a theoretical model for adhesion between cells mediated by multivalent ligands.a theoretical model is developed for cell-to-cell binding by bivalent ligands that can bind to mobile receptors on the cell surfaces. monovalent inhibitors that can bind either to receptors or ligands are also included. for symmetrical ligands, that is, ligands in which both binding sites are the same, it is shown that crosslinking of receptors on each cell will interfere with intercellular bridge formation. at equilibrium, such interference is not drastic, but if the crosslinks can form before ...200195173
dietary and dental variations in the genus lemur, with comments concerning dietary-dental correlations among malagasy primates.field studies of feeding in the lemur subspecies lemur fulvus rufus and l. f. mayottensis have revealed that feeding patterns within a single species can be markedly different, both regionally and seasonally. thus l. f. rufus is a dietary specialist (3 plant species accounting for 80-90% of feeding time), and is highly folivorous, especially during the dry season (90% of feeding time spent eating leaves during the dry season, and 53% during the wet season). on the other hand, l. f. mayottensis i ...200198050
hysterographic double-outlined uterine cavity: a sign of unsuspected pregnancy.a review of three hysterograms inadvertently performed during early pregnancy reaffirms the regular appearance of infiltration of aqueous opaque media into the substance of the decidua, producing the sign of the double-outlined uterine cavity. although such endometrial opacification may also occur during the late secretory phase, its recognition should arouse suspicion of pregnancy. a coexisting intrauterine filling defect may then be more confidently diagnosed as an amniotic sac.200198013
the biology of ethics or the ethics of biology? the biologist's quest for meaning.the biologist's involvement in value issues concerning the metholology of biological sciences, in establishing the biological basis of ethics and in creating a value system based on biological knowledge is examined. it is proposed that the roots of this involvement are in the conflict of the knowledge-ethic with the established system of values and in the need for metaphysical explanation.200197886

methods for the preparation and crystallization of fab fragments in complex with peptide antigens derived from n. meningitidis outer membrane proteins.an understanding of the molecular basis for the recognition of outer-membrane proteins (omps) by antibody is an important goal in the development of a more rational approach to vaccine design. x-ray crystallography has been outstandingly successful in delineating the detailed chemical interactions that are responsible for the high affinity and high selectivity of antibody-antigen interactions (1). although a number of x-ray structures of omps have now been reported (e.g., 2), determination of th ...200121336751
thyrotoxicosis in a patient with secondary hypothyroidism.we have described a patient with panhypopituitarism who developed thyrotoxicosis. there is a widespread belief that pituitary thyrotropin (tsh) is not a pathogenetic factor in most patients with thyrotoxicosis. due to technical reasons, however, it has been difficult to entirely exclude the role(s) of tsh in the development of thyrotoxicosis. in this report hyperthyroidism appeared in a patient with tsh deficiency proved by the lack of response to trh administration. this is the first known case ...200198848

atrial septal thickness and area in normal heart specimens and in those with ostium secundum atrial septal defects.this anatomic study suggests that an understanding of the thickness of the atrial septum should allow better visualization of most portions of the blade-shaped atrial septum during cross-sectional echocardiography, both in normal subjects and in patients with ostium secundum atrial septal defects. the thickness measurements also demonstrate that difficulties in imaging the atrial septum are a function of resolution limits of existing echocardiographic equipment.2001114537
magnetic susceptibility studies of laccase and oxyhemocyanin.the magnetic susceptibility of rhus vernicifera laccase has been remeasured over the temperature range 5-260 k. in contrast to our previous results [solomon, e.i., dooley, d. m., wang r.-h., gray, h.b., cerdonio, m., mogno, f. & romani, g. l. (1975) j. am. chem. soc. 98, 1029-1031] linear chi versus t-1 behavior was observed. the susceptibility of limulus polyphemus oxyhemocyanin has also been measured in the range 5-260 k. only weak paramagnetism, attributable to dissolved oxygen and a small am ...200198765
