Abstract
Type-C virus-like particles (VLPs) were found in an Epstein-Barr (EB) virus-infected human B-cell lymphoma cell line, SP-50B, that was established from a patient with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The cell line continuously produces a small number of type-C VLPs, 150-200 nm in diameter, over 1 year. SP-50B cells were negative for HTLV-I and HTLV-II antigens and did not contain the HTLV-I genome. In addition, two EB virus nuclear antigen (EBNA)-positive B-cell lines, SP-54-Cord and SP-57-CLL, were established from human cord blood and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), respectively, by coculture with lethally irradiated SP-50B cells. Type-C VLPs with the same morphology were also found in both cell lines.

Abstract
Both 25-epimers of (22E)-22-dehydro-1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-26-methylvitamin D3 [22-dehydro-26-methyl-1,25-(OH)2D3] were synthesized. The biological activity of these compounds was tested in binding affinity to chick intestinal receptor protein of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3] and in stimulating for intestinal calcium transport and bone calcium mobilization with vitamin D-deficient rats. The relative potency of (25R)- and (25S)-22-dehydro-26-homo-1,25-(OH)2D3 and 1,25-(OH)2D3 in competing for the intestinal cytosolic binding was 1.7:1.5:1. A similar order of activity was observed on intestinal calcium transport and bone calcium mobilization. In the ability for stimulation of intestinal calcium transport, (25R)- and (25S)-22-dehydro-26-methyl-1,25-(OH)2D3 were about 3.6 and 2.1 times as active as 1,25-(OH)2D3, respectively. In bone calcium mobilization tests, (25R)- and (25S)-22-dehydro-26-methyl-1,25-(OH)2D3 were estimated to be 2.2 and 1.6 times as potent as 1,25-(OH)2D3, respectively.

Abstract
To assess tissue changes responsible for enhancement of the meninges adjacent to meningiomas on magnetic resonance (MR) images, the authors correlated the MR imaging characteristics of meningeal lesions seen before and after administration of gadolinium diethylenetriamine-pentaacetic acid (DTPA) with the appearance of these lesions on contrast material-enhanced computed tomographic (CT) images and with histopathologic findings in four patients. Histopathologic examination of meninges showed increased loose connective tissue, hypervascularity, and dilated vessels. There was neoplastic infiltration of the dura mater in two patients but it was restricted to the immediate junction of neoplasm and dura mater, with maximum peripheral extension within 1 mm of the tumor margin. In both patients the meninges were enhanced far beyond the neoplastic infiltration. The other two patients showed no infiltration of dura mater. These findings suggest that pathologic enhancement of meninges adjacent to meningioma after administration of Gd-DTPA mainly represents reactive changes to the neoplasm and does not necessarily indicate neoplastic involvement.

Abstract
A series of analogs of 1 alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3 (1)] with alkyl substitutions in 26- and 27-positions have been tested for their activity 1) in competing with 1,25-(OH)2D3 for binding to chick intestinal cytosol receptor, 2) in ability for formation of multinucleated cells (MNC) with various osteoclastic cell characteristics from blast cells, and 3) in stimulating bone calcium mobilization in vitamin D-deficient rats. The relative potencies of 1,25-(OH)2D3, 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-26,27-dimethylvitamin D3 (2), 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-26,27-diethylvitamin D3 (3), and 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-26,27-dipropylvitamin D3 (4) in competing for intestinal cytosolic binding were 1:1.1:0.25:0.05. The similar order of the abilities on formation of the multinucleated cells in the same series was observed. In a bone calcium mobilization test with vitamin D-deficient rats, 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-26,27-dimethylvitamin D3 showed slightly less activity than 1,25-(OH)2D3 at 12 h after administration, but long lasting activity was observed during time course experiments. 1 alpha,25-Dihydroxy-26,27-diethylvitamin D3, and 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy-26,27-dipropylvitamin D3 were found to be much less active than 1,25-(OH)2D3 in a bone calcium mobilization test.

Abstract
1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2D3) greatly enhances sodium butyrate (NaB)-induced enterocyte differentiation of HT-29 human colonic carcinoma cells while 1,25-(OH)2D3 alone induces growth restriction without associated differentiation. In the present study, the efficacies of various analogs of 1,25-(OH)2D3 to enhance NaB-induced HT-29 differentiation and to prolong the reversal of the differentiated phenotype under NaB-free growth conditions were subsequently examined. Extent of HT-29 differentiation was assessed by measurement of alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity, appearance of mucin-producing cells, changes in morphological characteristics, and expression of differentiation-associated cytokeratin proteins. Among active analogs of 1,25-(OH)2D3, 26,26,26,27,27,27-hexafluoro-1,25-(OH)2D3 (F6-1,25-(OH)2D3), 24,24-difluoro-24-homo-1,25-(OH)2D3, and 26,27-dimethyl-1,25-(OH)2D3 were 100-, 10-, and 5-fold, respectively, more effective than 1,25-(OH)2D3 in enhancing NaB-induced mucin production. Combined use of NaB and F6-1,25-(OH)2D3 (10(-9) M) also induced HT-29 cells to form highly differentiated goblet-like enterocytes, and increased both cellular AP enzymatic activity and tissue-type cytokeratin content. This differentiated state was qualitatively more advanced than that achieved by a combination of NaB and 10(-7) M 1,25-(OH)2D3. NaB-mediated HT-29 differentiation (in short-term inductions) was found to be reversible following a return to NaB-free medium. HT-29 cells differentiated by combined use of NaB and 1,25-(OH)2D3 or its analogs exhibited a significant prolonged reversal time relative to cells differentiated with NaB alone. The most prominent effect was achieved using cells differentiated with NaB and 10(-9) M F6-1,25-(OH)2D3 which exhibited a 7-fold prolonged reversal time over colonocytes differentiated by NaB alone. Our data suggest that a combined use of NaB and 1,25-(OH)2D3 or its derivatives may provide a convenient in vitro model system to probe molecular events associated with steroid-target tissue interactions in a differentiating cell system as commonly occurs in vivo. Such an analysis might lend itself to design of a rational combination differentiation-based therapy for the clinical management of colon cancer.

Abstract
A reliable method for the simultaneous determination of keto and non-keto bile acids in human serum was developed. Carbonyl substituents of bile acid ethyl esters were converted into methyloxime and hydroxyl substituents into dimethylethylsilyl ethers and the products were analysed directly by capillary gas chromatography with selected ion monitoring using [2H4]chenodeoxycholic and [2H4]3 alpha-hydroxy-7-oxo-5 beta-cholanoic acids as internal standards. The bile acid peaks on the selected ion chromatogram were separated without interference from endogenous substances present in serum. Recoveries of individual keto bile acids added to serum range from 74.4 to 94.7% with a mean of 87.1%. Eight kinds of keto bile acids not previously found in sera of normal subjects, namely 3-oxo-, 3-oxo-7 alpha-hydroxy-, 3-oxo-12 alpha-hydroxy-, 3 alpha-hydroxy-7-oxo, 3 alpha-hydroxy-12-oxo-, 3-oxo-7 alpha,12 alpha-dihydroxy-, 3 alpha,7 alpha-dihydroxy-12-oxo- and 3 alpha,12 alpha-dihydroxy-7-oxo-5 beta-cholanoic acids were identified and quantified. The total concentration of keto bile acids was found to be 0.16 +/- 0.08 nmol/ml and constituted 2.9 +/- 1.5% of that of the usual non-keto bile acids in peripheral venous serum.

Abstract
The dynamic analyses of bone scintigraphy were performed in 30 cases of hemodialysed patients. The regression analyses between biochemical data or duration and K indexes obtained from the 2-compartment model analysis in the maxillofacial region were carried out. The obtained results were as follows. 1) The duration and K indexes were significantly correlated with 1 or 2% of significance level in the parietal bone and the zygomatic bone. 2) Serum Ca and K indexes were highly correlated in every settled ROI. The correlation coefficients were distributed from 0.58 to 0.79. In the cranial bone the correlation were more higher than in maxilla and mandibular bone. 3) Serum ALP and K indexes have more higher significant level of correlation than the results of Ca. The correlation coefficients were distributed from 0.48 to 0.83. The level of significance were changed by location. The highest correlation coefficient was 0.83 in the parietal bone. 4) Serum c-PTH and K indexes have significant correlation in every settled ROI with the correlation coefficient from 0.59 to 0.69. The significance level were nearly equal in every location. 5) In the case of subtotal parathyroidoectomy the K indexes which were abnormally high in preoperation showed the tendancy to decrease toward normal range in postoperation. These results indicated that K indexes reflected the bone change caused by renal osteodystrophy. And the K indexes considered to be usefull to estimate the bone improvement.

Abstract
Two lymphoma cell lines, SP-50B and SP-53, were established from peripheral blood of a 58-year-old woman with leukemic conversion of intermediate lymphocytic lymphoma. These cell lines grew in suspension with or without forming clumps of cells. SP-50B was morphologically similar to the common Epstein-Barr (EB) virus-transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines and was positive for EB virus nuclear antigen (EBNA), whereas SP-53 closely resembled the patient's lymphoma cells and was negative for EBNA. Both cell lines expressed the same phenotypic markers as original lymphoma cells (CpIg+, SmIg+, OKIa1+, Leu12+) and possessed t(11;14)(q13;q32) chromosome translocation. These results indicate that although morphologically different, SP-50B and SP-53 were both derived from patient's lymphoma cells. The long-term cultivation of EBNA-positive and EBNA-negative B-cell lymphoma lines from a single donor has not been previously reported. These cell lines would provide useful tools for studying the oncogenic role of EB virus and bcl-1 oncogene that is located on chromosome 11q13.

Abstract
We describe a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and overlapping syndrome who had repeated gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and malabsorption. With a subacute process, she developed paralytic ileus and contracted bladder, and died of perforation of the ileum. When 13 reported cases with lupus cystitis were reviewed, an extremely strong correlation between GI and urinary tract symptoms was observed, indicating the presence of a unique subgroup of SLE.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate features of the successional tooth of the lower first molar. Materials investigated in this study deal with a supernumerary tooth formed at the distolingual deep part to the lower right first molar of a male patient aged twenty-four. It was observed with binocular microscopy and under X-ray. The occlusal surface of it was observed with scanning electron microscopy. Horizontal ground sections of it were prepared and observed with polarizing microscopy, fluorescent microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. It is thought that this supernumerary tooth is a true successional tooth of the lower first molar because it was formed at the distolingual deep part to the lower first molar and the fissure of it is Y-shaped and it has five cusps. It is considered that two impressions at buccal and distal surfaces of it isn't original hereditary features but was accidentally formed by pressures of mesial and distal roots of the lower first molar. The rough form of it has most resemblance to the lower second premolar and distal and lingual parts of it are smaller than that of the lower first molar. But fundamental features of the lower first molar are preserved in it. It is thought that the center of the molarization field of human lower successional teeth lies at the successional tooth of the lower first molar because the form of the occlusal surface of it is more complex and functional than those of the lower first and second premolars.

Abstract
The nicotinic acetylcholine receptor-ion channels (AChR channels) of the bullfrog sympathetic ganglion cells were studied with a two-electrode voltage clamp technique. The decay phase of the fast excitatory postsynaptic current (fast e.p.s.c.) in B-type neurones followed a double exponential function whose time constants were 3.2 and 8.0 ms at -60 mV and increased with membrane hyperpolarization. Likewise, the decay phase of the fast e.p.s.c. in C-type neurones was double-exponential with time constants of 4.4 and 12.3 ms (at -60 mV). The miniature e.p.s.c. in B-type neurones also decayed with a double exponential function (2.7 and 15.4 ms at -100 mV). Analysis of acetylcholine-induced current fluctuations revealed the power spectral density distribution of a double Lorentzian function which yielded the time constants of elementary events [tau noise(f) and tau noise(s): 1.7 and 29.7 ms, respectively, at -100 mV] and the averaged elementary conductance (gamma: 7.8 pS). The amplitude of fast e.p.s.c. and the time constant of the fast component of its decay phase decreased during the initial ("acute") phase (within 15 min) of the action of atropine (3 microM), but recovered during the later ("chronic") phase (more than 30 min after application) of the action. The slow component was affected by atropine in a manner similar to the fast component during the "acute" phase. During the "chronic phase", however, the slow time constant recovered and exceeded the control value. Furthermore, this prolongation remained for at least 1 h after the removal of atropine.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The usefulness of the pancreatic dual-label Schilling test as an indirect test of pancreatic exocrine function was evaluated. This dual-label Schilling test was based on the difference of absorption for [58Co]cobalamin bound to hog R protein and [57Co]cobalamin bound to intrinsic factor. In this study, the test was performed in 7 normal subjects, 5 patients with pancreatectomy, 12 patients with chronic pancreatitis, 10 patients with suspicion of chronic pancreatitis, and 13 patients without chronic pancreatitis. The normal lower limit (mean -2 SD) of excretion ratio for [58Co]/[57Co] in 24-h urine was 0.68. Of the 26 patients on whom endoscopic retrograde pancreatography was performed, none of the 9 patients with normal pancreatogram, 4 of the 9 patients with mild to moderate pancreatitic changes in pancreatogram, and 7 of the 8 patients with advanced pancreatitic changes in pancreatogram showed a positive value lower than the ratio of 0.68 in this test. In 28 patients examined with the direct test of pancreatic secretory capacity, 2 of the 13 patients with normal function, 6 of the 9 patients with mild dysfunction, and 5 of the 6 patients with definite dysfunction were positive in this test. The results of the pancreatic dual-label Schilling test significantly correlated with those of a direct test of pancreatic secretory capacity and the findings of pancreatitic changes in pancreatogram (p less than 0.01, chi 2 test). The ratio for [58Co]/[57Co] correlated (r = 0.73) with the maximal bicarbonate concentration in duodenal juice of the direct test of pancreatic secretory capacity. The impairment of bicarbonate output by the pancreas may adversely affect the transfer of cobalamin from R protein to intrinsic factor. It suggested that the pancreatic dual-label Schilling test is useful for detecting not only patients with severe pancreatic insufficiency but also the relatively early stage of chronic pancreatitis with bicarbonate secretory dysfunction of the pancreas.

Abstract
High voltage electric pulses, 1000 V/cm, were found to induce cell fusion efficiently when delivered to cells growing in a monolayer culture. The maximum yield of fused cells was about 30% of cells remaining after treatment. Colonies of interspecies hybrid cells between mouse and others also appeared with a frequency of 3 X 10(-4) - 2 X 10(-5) after culturing fused cells in a selection medium that permits the growth of only hybrid cells. This method of electrofusion was applied for complementation analysis of DNA repair-deficient xeroderma pigmentosum cells. Efficient cell fusion was also observed with these human diploid fibroblasts and the resulting heterodikaryons showed a recovery of ultraviolet light-induced unscheduled DNA synthesis to the same extent as in normal cells.

Abstract
We report here four patients with acute leukemia, who developed seizure or tremor following treatment with imipenem, a new broad-spectrum antibiotic. All four patients had no renal dysfunction and recovered after discontinuation of the drug. Two patients who developed seizure had a past history of cerebral hemorrhage with symptoms of meningitis in one and the other had received frequent intrathecal injections of methotrexate. Seizure also occurred in another patient who was given multiple intrathecal injections of methotrexate. The remaining old patient developed tremor after the first administration of imipenem which did not progress to convulsion. Cerebral hemorrhage or meningitis is known to predispose patients for convulsion following imipenem treatment. In addition, the present study suggests that central nervous system damage related with intrathecal injections of methotrexate may be a predisposing factor. Thus, imipenem should be given with caution to acute leukemia patients who often have risk factors for developing imipenem-related complications.

Abstract
A 6-month-old boy having intraspinal lipoma with lumbosacral subcutaneous lipoma and occult spinal dysraphism is described. CT scan and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are demonstrated. On admission, the patient showed no neurological deficits. Lumbosacral hemangioma and subcutaneous lipoma were noticed on physical examination. A plain spinal roentogenogram revealed occult spinal dysraphism extending from L 4 level down to the sacral region. A plain CT scan disclosed a round-shaped low density area surrounded by a relatively high density area corresponding to the neural tissue in the spinal canal. MRI (1.5-T superconducting system) with sagittal views clearly showed an oval-shaped high signal intensity (SI) area-an intraspinal lipoma-with the neural tissue running longitudinally within and on its surface. The lipoma appeared to be attached to the spinal cord at L 1/2 level. On operation, we found an extramedullary lipoma which had a certain connection to the sacral epidural adipose tissue with an opening of the dural sac, as far as the subcutaneous lipoma. Tethered cord and thickened filum terminale were not identified. Generally, lipoma is demonstrated as a low density area of approximately -90 H.U. on a CT scan. In MRI, we can obtain a high contrast between the lipoma, the spinal cord, and the cerebrospinal fluid, since they are shown as a high, an intermediate, and a low SI area respectively, on T1-weighted spin echo images. Furthermore, sagittal section of MRI is regarded as a potent diagnostic modality to get the precise anatomy of the spinal cord lesion. These short spin echo images can be taken in a relatively brief time. It is a great advantage for patients with spinal lipoma, who are usually infants. MRI is considered to be a quite useful modality to diagnose spinal lipoma, and is able to lead to an early diagnosis non-invasively and accurately, facilitating appropriate surgical treatment.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Black-pigmented Bacteroides (BPB) and spirochetes are associated with some forms of periodontal diseases. The enzymes produced by these bacteria may participate in the destruction of gingival and periodontal tissues. Certain proteases and peptidases are unique to Bacteroides gingivalis and Treponema denticola. Our purpose was to study the peptidases of periodontopathogens and to evaluate the use of unique peptidases for detection and identification of these bacteria. Bacteria used were BPB, Treponema, Fusobacterium, Capnocytophaga, Actinobacillus (Haemophilus), and Eikenella species. Twenty-five substrates, including mono-, di-, and tri-peptides of β-naphthylamide (β-NA) were employed for examination of peptidase activity. Clinically isolated BPB were obtained from 16 adult periodontitis patients. One hundred and ninety-three BPB strains were identified by conventional identification methods, and the peptidase activity was determined with N-Carbobenzoxy-glycyl-glycyl-L-arginine-β-naphthylamide (N-CBz-Gly-Gly-Arg-β-NA) used as a substrate. Among tested periodontopathic bacteria, only B. gingivalis and T. denticola could strongly hydrolyze some substrates such as N-CBz-Gly-Gly-Arg-β-NA and N-Benzoyl-L-valyl-glycyl-L-arginine-4-methoxy-(3-naphthylamide (Bz-Val-Gly-Arg-β-NA). In subgingival plaque samples, all patients showed BPB, and eight out of 16 patients possessed B. gingivalis by culture. One hundred and ten strains out of 193 BPB isolated were identified as B. gingivalis. Ninety-nine percent of these B. gingivalis strains identified showed N-CBz-Gly-Gly-Arg-β-NAhydrolyzing activity on a newly developed colorimetric plate assay. However, none of the other strains showed this activity in cultures of subgingival plaque which did not allow growth of spirochetes. Enzymes, such as N-CBz-Gly-Gly-Arg-peptidase and Bz-Val-Gly-Arg-peptidase, specific for B. gingivalis and T. denticola seem to be useful for rapid detection and identification of these bacteria.

Abstract
The effects of clofibrate treatment on N-nitrosobis(2-hydroxypropyl)amine (BHP) induced liver, gall bladder, pancreas, lung and kidney carcinogenesis in hamsters were studied. Animals were given BHP as an initiator at a dose of 500 mg/kg body weight subcutaneously once a week for 5 weeks followed by diet containing 0.25 or 0.5% clofibrate for 30 weeks. Both doses of clofibrate promoted hepatocarcinogenesis as judged from the associated multiplicity of liver lesions including hyperplastic nodules and hepatocellular carcinomas. gamma-Glutamyltranspeptidase (gamma-GTP) activity was not expressed in those lesions in the liver of hamsters given BHP followed by a basal diet or diets containing clofibrate. Clofibrate at a dose of 0.5% in the diet, in contrast, inhibited the development of pancreatic adenocarcinomas and lung neoplasms, including adenomas and adenocarcinomas, without affecting carcinogenesis in the gall bladder and kidney. These results clearly indicate differential modification potential of clofibrate for BHP-induced liver, pancreas and lung carcinogenesis in Syrian hamsters.

Abstract
A hamster lymphoid cell line, HCT-2, transformed by human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I) was serially transplanted for 9 passages in newborn hamsters. A total of 34 newborn hamsters inoculated intraperitoneally (i.p.) with 0.2-2 X 10(7) HCT-2 cells developed fatal lymphomas with dissemination to various organs within 5-10 days. The growth of i.p. inoculated HCT-2 cells was found to be dependent on the age of recipients: all 21 suckling hamsters inoculated when aged 5-10 days succumbed to disseminated lymphomas within 6-7 days, while 4 of 12 older hamsters inoculated at the age of 15-25 days developed less extensive disease with signs of tumor regression. To investigate the effect of immunosuppression on host resistance, 3 adult hamsters treated with anti-thymocyte serum were inoculated i.v. with 2-4 X 10(7) HCT-2 cells; all 3 developed fatal leukemias in 5-7 days. Irrespective of whether HCT-2 cells were inoculated into newborn, suckling, or adult hamsters, histopathological findings were similar, with frequent involvement of liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, lymph nodes, blood, and bone marrow. Cells harvested from tumors and peripheral blood of some tumor-bearing hamsters could be readily recultured as cell lines. Chromosome analysis and Southern blot hybridization showed that tumors were caused by growth of HCT-2 cells.

Abstract
A mother and daughter are described with light and electron microscopic, and biochemical abnormalities of their connective tissue characteristic of both cutis laxa and the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. The mother was clinically normal, while her 8-year-old daughter exhibited loose, wrinkled skin and other clinical features of cutis laxa, and also fragility, bruisability and hyper-extensibility of the skin and poor healing of wounds, leaving "cigarette paper" scars, features characteristic of the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Light and electron microscopic studies of skin biopsy specimens and cultured skin fibroblasts from both individuals revealed reduced and distorted elastic fibres, a finding usually seen in cutis laxa. Electrophoretic studies of collagen excreted from cultured skin fibroblasts revealed in both individuals an alpha 2(I) chain with a molecular size smaller than usual. The father and elder daughter were normal by clinical, light and electron microscopic and electrophoretic studies. It was concluded from these findings that the mother and daughter represented a hitherto undescribed disease of the connective tissue with dominant inheritance and variable expressivity.

Abstract
Two HTLV-I-carrying T cell lines were prepared from peripheral lymphocytes of a virus-infected (B/J X Chbb:HM) F1 rabbit, and these cells were inoculated intraperitoneally into 5 newborn F1 rabbits. These animals were killed 3-5 weeks later. Their leukocyte counts were higher than those in normal control animals, with abnormal lymphocytes amounting to 3-5% of total leukocytes. Histological examination showed leukemic infiltration in liver, spleen, lung and kidneys of all these animals. The peripheral lymphocytes at first lacked HTLV-I antigens, but became antigen-positive after in vitro culture. Southern blot analysis of these cells revealed HTLV-I integration patterns different from those of the inoculated cells.

Abstract
Vitamin B12 (B12) absorption was studied in rats following biliopancreatic duct ligation. The absorption of free B12, as well as of hog R protein-bound B12, was markedly impaired after both intragastric and intraduodenal administration in these rats. The intraduodenal administration of a mixture of pancreatic extract and sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) improved the absorption of both free and R protein-bound B12. However, pancreatic extract without NaHCO3 was ineffective in this respect. Intraduodenal administration of NaHCO3 without pancreatic extract worsened the R protein-bound B12 absorption. This finding would indicate that the degradation of R protein by proteolytic enzymes, in the intestine of rats with pancreatic juice exclusion, is inhibited by NaHCO3.

Abstract
Poly(ethyleneglycol)-bound NAD (PEG-NAD) was covalently linked to Thermus thermophilus malate dehydrogenase with a bifunctional reagent, 3,3'-(1,6-dioxo-1,6-hexanediyl)bis-2-thiazolidinethione. The covalently linked malate-dehydrogenase--PEG--NAD complex (MDH-PEG-NAD) was purified by DEAE-Sephadex column chromatography to remove unbound PEG-NAD, and fractionated by blue-Sepharose column chromatography into four preparations: MDH-PEG-NAD I, MDH-PEG-NAD II, MDH-PEG-NAD III and MDH-PEG-NAD IV. The average numbers of NAD moieties covalently bound per subunit of MDH-PEG-NAD I, MDH-PEG-NAD II, MDH-PEG-NAD III and MDH-PEG-NAD IV were 1.2, 1.2, 0.8 and 0.5, respectively, and the values were confirmed by sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. 60-80% bound NAD moiety of these preparations of MDH-PEG-NAD was reduced by the enzyme moiety in the presence of L-malate, and the specific activity of the enzyme moiety of the preparations was more than 80% that of the native enzyme. MDH-PEG-NAD I has the following properties. The Km value for exogenous NAD is three times that of the native enzyme. The coenzyme activity of its NAD moiety is 20-40% that of native NAD for alcohol and lactate dehydrogenases. The complex catalyzes the oxidation of L-malate in the presence of the redox system of 5-ethylphenazinium ethyl sulfate and a tetrazolium salt with a rate constant of 0.11 s-1. The coenzyme moiety of the complex can also be recycled by coupled reactions of the active site of the same complex and alcohol dehydrogenase. These results indicate that MDH-PEG-NAD works as an NAD(H)-regeneration unit for coupled reactions.

Abstract
Sera from 39 patients with pernicious anemia and 251 patients with various other diseases and 42 healthy normal subjects were tested for intrinsic factor blocking antibody by a Corning commercial kit. Twenty-five (64%) out of 39 pernicious anemia patients showed a positive reaction to the intrinsic factor blocking antibody. The positive incidence of intrinsic factor blocking antibody by this method agreed well with the results obtained in this laboratory over the past 10 years using the charcoal method. No sera from normal subjects tested were positive for the intrinsic factor blocking antibody. All 226 sera with vitamin B12 levels less than 3,500 pg/ml which came from patients without pernicious anemia, were negative for the intrinsic factor blocking antibody. In 15 sera with B12 levels greater than 3,500 pg/ml from patients who received recent B12 medications, 11 sera showed false positive results. On the other hand, no false positive results were obtained by this method in 10 sera with endogenous serum B12 levels greater than 3,500 pg/ml collected from patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia. It is reasonable to presume that this assay is clinically useful for detection of intrinsic factor blocking antibody in the diagnosis of pernicious anemia, if false positive results due to B12 medication are excluded.

Abstract
The mechanism(s) by which intracerebroventricularly administered angiotensin II (ANG II) regulates aldosterone production was investigated in dogs with chronically implanted cannula into a lateral cerebroventricle. In salt-replete and salt-depleted dogs, artificial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) with or without ANG II (1, 10, 100 ng X kg-1 X min-1) was infused intracerebroventricularly for 2 h under pentobarbital anesthesia. Artificial CSF produced no significant humoral changes. Intracerebroventricular ANG II decreased plasma renin activity and increased both ACTH and plasma cortisol in both groups but decreased plasma aldosterone (PA) only in salt-depleted dogs. Dexamethasone pretreatment during intracerebroventricular ANG II decreased PA further in salt-replete but not in salt-depleted dogs. Moreover, the fall in PA during intracerebroventricular ANG II in salt-depleted dogs was prevented when intravenous infusion of ANG II (10 ng X kg-1 X min-1) was given simultaneously to maintain circulating ANG II levels. We conclude that PA response to intracerebroventricular ANG II is mediated primarily through the renin-angiotensin system in the salt-depleted state; however, in the salt-replete state, ACTH assumes a more important role.

Abstract
We studied the operative approaches to anterior communicating artery aneurysms by means of reviewing preoperative angiogram and operation records. During the past 5 years, 117 patients with anterior communicating artery aneurysms were operated on in our hospital. Among these, we examined 112 cases of which preoperative angiogram and operation records were satisfactory for this study. We checked the next points on the preoperative angiograms. Neck of aneurysm-planum sphenoidal distance. Direction of the anterior communicating artery. It means which A2 is anterior to the other A2 in the lateral view of angiogram. Size of aneurysm. We checked the next points on the operation records. Operative approach and the side of craniotomy. When the pterional approach was taken, the rectal gyrus was aspirated or not. This analysis derived these two conclusions as below. 1. In the literature, as the operative approach to anterior communicating artery aneurysm, the pterional approach has a lot of advantages. For example, the pterional approach was accomplished without extensive frontal lobe retraction, without mobilization of the temporal lobe, without sacrificing the olfactory tract, and so on. Moreover, in early stage after onset of SAH, it is possible to remove the subarachnoid blood extensively without obvious brain damage by the pterional approach. In this study, we paid attention to the correlation between the neck-planum sphenoidal distance and the fact of aspiration of the rectal gyrus in the pterional approach. The result is that the higher aneurysmal neck was, the more frequently the rectal gyrus was aspirated. So, if the neck-planum sphenoidal distance is under 12 mm, which includes the majority of the cases (94% of cases), we think the pterional approach is the best approach for anterior communicating artery aneurysm.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The combined one-stage operations, STA-MCA anastomosis and internal carotid artery (ICA) ligation (or trapping) were carried out in 11 cases (Age): 18-79 yrs, Av.: 45.8 yrs) of ICA aneurysms which were inaccessible for a direct operation because of their locations and sizes. First the STA-MCA anastomosis was performed under general anesthesia. Then the patient was awaken and thereafter under local anesthesia the ICA was temporarily clamped for 30 min. under induced hypotension to check whether any ischemic signs appeared. This was followed by proximal ICA ligation when no ischemic signs were observed. In all 11 cases, the anastomosis was patent. The aneurysms disappeared. Neither cerebral ischemia nor rebleeding from the aneurysms was seen during the long follow-up. The mean value of the bypass flow was 119 m/min which was twice as much as that in the cases of other occlusive cerebrovascular diseases and which was about one third of the blood flow of the ICA. Cerebral blood flow measurements through 133Xe inhalation method revealed that there was no difference in rCBF values between the operated and non-operated sides and that their values were within normal limits. The postoperative blood pressure was unchanged in 42% of our 11 cases, temporarily elevated and thereafter normalized in 33% and persistently elevated in 25%. Ophthalmodynamometry showed that the pressure of the central retinal artery decreased postoperatively in a degree of 5-10% in comparison to the non-operated side. No visual impairment was observed postoperatively (except case 3, see the text). These combined operations, STA-MCA anastomosis and ICA ligation were beneficial in preventing the potential postoperative cerebral ischemia. Intra-arterial pressure measurements of the STA and MCA suggested that the one-stage operations of these two procedures are better than the two-stage operations for the patency of the anastomosis because the pressure gradient between the donor and recipient vessels is increased (from 10.3 mmHg to 49.3 mmHg) by this technique. Temporary ICA clamp for 30 min. under induced hypotension in local anesthesia is useful to check whether the one-stage operations can be tolerated or not. EC/IC bypass with an interposed saphenous vein graft is a more beneficial surgical technique than a routine STA-MCA anastomosis, because an immediate and larger amount of bypass flow can be obtained.
