an ultrastructural study of preimplantation uterine embryos of the rhesus monkey. | two cleavage stage embryos, two blastocyts surrounded by zona pellucida, and two azonal ('hatched') blastocysts were recovered from uteri of rhesus monkeys and examined with the electron microscope. cleavage-stage embryos showed no striking differences between inside and outside blastomeres, all of them displaying primitive junctional complexes, heteromorphic mitochondria, large ovoid nuclei and a few polyribosomes. the zonal blastocysts had distinctive trophectoderm and inner cell mass areas in ... | 1978 | 418052 |
high-performance liquid chromatographic determination of plasma and urinary 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3,7-dicarboxylic acid. | a high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the analysis of 1-ethyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3,7-dicarboxylic acid (i) in plasma and urine is described. a statistical evaluation of the assay technique has shown acceptable accuracy and precision at concentrations as high as 2.0 microgram/ml of plasma or 29.0 microgram/ml of urine for samples augmented with 1. as little as 0.08 microgram/ml of i in plasma or 0.42 microgram/ml of i in urine were quantitatively determined. the me ... | 1978 | 418076 |
thalamic projections to s-i in macaque monkey. | the organization of thalamic input to functionally characterized zones in primary somatosensory cerebral cortex (s-i) of macaque monkeys (macaca mulatta) was investigated using the method of labelling by retrograde transport of horseradish peroxidase (hrp). it was found that the cell columns positioned at the posterior margin of the band of cortex representing a given body region receive thalamic input from a posterior level of the ventroposterior thalamic nucleus (vp), and that cell columns at ... | 1978 | 418081 |
efferent projections of the subthalamic nucleus: an autoradiographic study in monkey and cat. | the efferent projections of the subthalamic nucleus were studied with the autoradiographic tracing technique in rhesus monkey and cat. from the data it appears that the major efferent projections of the nucleus are to the pallidal complex and the substantia nigra. in both monkey and cat, the projection to the pallidal complex is truly massive and is directed at both pallidal segments. the projection field includes an infracommissural part of the pallidal complex bordering on the substantia innom ... | 1978 | 418083 |
the neurons and the synaptic endings in the primate basilar pontine gray. | two types of neurons, projection and intrinsic, previously identified in golgi preparations of the adult monkey (macaca mulatta) basilar pontine gray (cooper and fox, '76) were observed electronmicroscopically in macaca mulatta and the squirrel monkey saimiri sciureus. the cell body of the projection neuron measures up to 37 micrometer and its cytoplasm is rich in organelles. the goli apparatus, ribosomes, and mitochondria are disposed around the nucleus, while rough endoplasmic reticulum though ... | 1978 | 418084 |
distribution of 14c-formaldehyde after pulpotomy with formocresol. | pulpotomies were performed on rhesus monkeys with use of formocresol to determine if there was uptake of 14c-formaldehyde into the systemic circulation after formocresol pulpotomies. five-minute exposure of pulpal tissue to the 14c-formocresol resulted in the systemic absorption of approximately 1% of the dose. two hours of exposure of pulp tissue to the 14c-formocresol did not increase the systemic absorption. multiple sequential pulpotomies resulted in proportionately higher systemic absorptio ... | 1978 | 418090 |
the topographic organization of rhesus monkey prestriate cortex. | 1. the topographic organization of prestriate visual cortex in the rhesus monkey has been studied both anatomically, by determining the pattern of termination of fibres passing through the corpus callosum, and physiologically, in the same animals, by plotting receptive field positions for different recording sites. results are displayed on two-dimensional, "unfolded" maps of the cortex in the dorsal half of the occipital lobe. 2. transcallosal fibres terminate in a narrow strip of cortex along t ... | 1978 | 418173 |
the cortical projections of foveal striate cortex in the rhesus monkey. | 1. the cortical projections of the foveal and extrafoveal parts of the striate cortex have been compared, using conventional degeneration techniques, as well as combinations of anatomical methods. while both foveal and extrafoveal striate cortex share a common pattern of projections (to areas v2, v3 and the visual area in the medial part of the posterior bank of the superior temporal sulcus), foveal striate cortex was found to have an additional projection (to part of the cortex of the fourth vi ... | 1978 | 418174 |
the third visual complex of rhesus monkey prestriate cortex. | 1. two independent but neighbouring visual areas, v3 and v3a, sharing a common cytoarchitectural plan, but in each one of which the visual fields are separately represented, have been studied anatomically, functionally, and in combined anatomico-physiological experiments. 2. the properties of single cells in the two areas are so similar, judged by the techniques used in this study, that it is often impossible to tell whether any one penetration was sampling from cells in v3 or v3a. this is espec ... | 1978 | 418175 |
uniformity and diversity of structure and function in rhesus monkey prestriate visual cortex. | 1. recordings were made from single neurones, or small clusters of cells, in five prestriate visual areas of rhesus monkey cortex. the cells were studied for their binocularity, as well as for their orientational, motion and colour preferences. in all, 1500 cells were studied, 250 cells for each of the areas v2, v3, v3a and the motion area of the posterior bank of the superior temporal sulcus, and 500 cells for v4. all the cells referred to in this study can be placed in one prestriate area or a ... | 1978 | 418176 |
narcotic tolerance and operant behavior. | narcotic tolerance was measured as a shift to the right in dose-effect relations on operant behavior following repeated administration of drug. tolerance has been observed with operant responding in both pigeons and rhesus monkeys. the amount of tolerance observed with food-reinforced responding is related both to the amount of morphine administered and to the nature of the drug-induced change in operant responding. pharmacological specificity of the narcotic tolerance has been confirmed by equi ... | 1978 | 418354 |
ethanol drinking by rhesus monkeys as a function of concentration. | ethanol deliveries maintained fixed-ratio (fr) responding of three rhesus monkeys during daily 3-h sessions. at fr values of 8 or 16, ethanol concentration was varied in the sequence 0 (water), 8, 11.3, 16, 22.6 32, 8, and 0% (w/v). as the ethanol concentration increased, number of liquid deliveries decreased somewhat. blood ethanol levels were usually greater than 200 mg% and occasionally greater than 300 mg%. | 1978 | 418445 |
