Abstract
We report an unusual case of inflammatory pseudotumor of the choroid plexus of the right lateral ventricle, manifesting as an intraventricular mass and causing unilateral hydrocephalus in a 48-year-old man who suffered from Sjögren's disease and subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus. The lesion obliterated the normal choroidal architecture by a mixed chronic inflammatory process that was associated with reactive connective tissue changes. Immunohistochemical studies showed no light-chain restriction in the cells, and residual islands of transthyretin-positive epithelial cells were identified, implicating the choroid plexus origin of the mass.

Abstract
C5a is a 74 amino acid polypeptide that likely plays an important role in the pathogenesis of a number of inflammatory diseases. Therefore, the discovery of a C5a antagonist is of considerable therapeutic interest. A series of peptides designed to survey various regions of the molecule was synthesized by solid-phase peptide synthesis and evaluated for receptor-binding activity with polymorphonuclear leukocyte membranes. The C-terminal octapeptide (Ac-His-Lys-Asp-Met-Gln-Leu-Gly-Arg-OH) was identified as the smallest fragment which possessed reasonable C5a receptor binding activity.

Abstract
Thirteen patients have been treated over a 2-year period utilizing a team approach between the radiology and surgical services. Initial diagnostic evaluation is directed at determining the size and anatomic extent of the hemangioma; clinical assessment of coagulation and hemodynamic status is also performed. Arteriography with superselective embolization precedes the surgical procedure, usually by 24 hours. The YAG laser with contact sapphire-tip scalpels is then utilized for resection and reconstruction of the hemangioma. Total removal of hemangioma was achieved in 9 of 13 patients, and partial or subtotal removal was achieved in the remainder. Blood loss and complications were minimal.

Abstract
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a new, minimaly invasive technique for removing the gallbladder which has several advantages over the traditional laparotomy cholecystectomy. We reviewed our initial experience with 100 consecutive patients in whom laparoscopic cholecystectomy was attempted. The indications for operation were biliary colic, chronic cholecystitis, acute gallbladder and gallstone pancreatitis. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was successfully performed in 87 patients. Anaesthesia time was 144 +/- 52 min. There was no mortality while overall morbidity was 14%. One patient had a retained common bile duct stone. Postoperative hospital stay was 4.1 +/- 2.2 days and the mean time to full activity in a random sample of 25 patients was 13.7 +/- 11.7 days. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a safe effective procedure which removes the gallbladder. We suggest that this technique be considered in all patients undergoing cholecystectomy.

Abstract
The urinary sediment was examined by light microscopy in 65 consecutive inpatients with renal insufficiency (not due to pre- or postrenal factors) referred to a nephrology consult service for evaluation. In the 60 patients in whom a single diagnosis was reached, the sediments of 34 (57%) contained an easily recognized cell, which we have called the "bubble cell". These cells were bizarre, large cells with a single nucleus, which appeared to contain one or more fluid-filled vesicles. Bubble cells were most prevalent in the sediment of patients with acute tubular necrosis but were also seen a variety of other renal diseases. In most patients with acute tubular necrosis, the sediment also contained "normal"-appearing renal tubular cells, muddy brown casts, and oval fat bodies which were indistinguishable from those seen in the nephrotic syndrome. By electron microscopy, the bubble cells appeared to be vacuolated renal tubular epithelial cells, which had characteristics of viable cells. Most bubble cells excluded the vital dye Trypan blue, whereas the normal-appearing renal tubular cells were typically strongly positive. It was concluded that bubble cells, often accompanied by oval fat bodies, are commonly present in the sediment of patients with acute tubular necrosis as well as many other types of renal disease. Most cells which would be classified as "normal" renal tubular cells in these sediments are dead. In contrast, the findings suggest that the bubble cell represents an injured but viable renal tubular cell. The frequent finding of oval fat bodies in the same sediments suggests that the oval fat body is also produced by tubular cell injury.

Abstract
In patients with intracerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), symptoms attributed to steal can lead to progressive debilitating deficits. This study was undertaken to determine which morphologic features of the AVM could be correlated with clinical symptoms of steal. Over a 4-year period, 65 patients with intracranial AVMs were evaluated with angiography supplemented by MR (46 cases) and CT (19 cases). Eleven characteristics of AVM vascular architecture were studied; these included size, lobar location, periventricular/intraventricular location, arterial stenosis, arteriovenous fistulae, angiomatous change (the presence of dilated transcortical collateral circulation), venous drainage pattern (central, cortical, mixed), venous stenosis, venous aneurysm or ectasia, venous variation, and delayed drainage. These characteristics were correlated with a history of clinical steal, which was seen in nine (14%) of 65 patients. Three characteristics were found to correlate highly with steal: angiomatous change (p less than .0001), size (p less than .0001), and peripheral venous drainage (p = .045). The mean size of the AVM nidus was 31.3 cm3 for the entire group of patients, 105.0 cm3 for patients with steal, and 19.5 cm3 for those without steal symptoms. Angiomatous change was seen in six (9%) of 65 patients; all six of these had clinical steal. The association of clinical steal with AVM size, angiomatous change, and peripheral venous drainage may contribute to establishing a prognosis and treatment planning. When a patient's symptoms are caused by steal, treatment with subtotal excision or partial embolization may be beneficial.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown a protective effect of trifluoperazine (TFP), a calmodulin inhibitor, upon the microcirculation of cold-stored kidneys. The present study points to similar beneficial effects of TFP on the microcirculation of cold-stored livers; 25 canine livers were preserved for 24 hr with Euro-Collins' solution (EC) (n = 8), University of Wisconsin solution (UW) (n = 7), or UW + TFP (n = 10). The stored livers underwent heterotopic transplantation (HLTX); hepatic-artery and portal-vein pressure and flow were monitored; oxygen consumption and extraction were measured before HLTX and at 15-min intervals after reperfusion, for 1 hr. Mean hepatic-artery and portal-vein flow (HAF & PVF) prior to donor hepatectomy were 172 and 530 cc/min, respectively. Poor HAF and PVF occurred in EC-HLTX (mean 35, 175 cc/min, respectively). The damaged EC-flushed livers could not compensate to the decreased hepatic blood flow by increased oxygen extraction (oxygen consumption and extraction, 8.7 vol.% and 48%, respectively). Light and electron microscopy showed severe liver necrosis and periportal hemorrhages. Improved hepatic-artery and portal-vein flows were seen in UW HLTX (105 and 254 cc/min), and oxygen consumption and extraction were 16.4 vol.% and 66%, respectively. Liver biopsy taken just before reperfusion revealed well-preserved liver architecture. Liver biopsy obtained 1 hr after reperfusion revealed marked edema of the portal triad, sinusoid congestion, and hemorrhage. Electron-microscopy biopsies obtained during reperfusion at 15-min intervals revealed severe vasospasm of the terminal hepatic arterioles and progressive damage to the liver microcirculation. The addition of TFP to the UW-flush solution resulted in excellent protection of the liver microcirculation. Marked increase in hepatic-artery and portal-vein blood flow was noted after reperfusion (mean 167 and 421 cc/min, respectively (P 0.02 vs. UW: P 0.001 vs. EC). The recovery of metabolic activity was evident by the high oxygen consumption and extraction (25.8 vol.% and 80%, respectively). And serial liver biopsies obtained after reperfusion have shown excellent protection of liver architecture and the absence of hepatic arteriolar vasospasm. Taken together, these data suggest that the addition of TFP to the UW solution protects the liver microcirculation by rendering the hepatic microcirculation insensitive to vasospastic stimuli during reperfusion, thus permitting better metabolic recovery after transplantation.

Abstract
We have recently presented biochemical evidence for collagen and gelatin degrading activities associated with plasma membranes of various human cancer cell lines. In this report we describe the localization of interstitial collagenase at the basal plasma membrane of the human pancreatic cancer cell line RWP-I, using immunofluorescence and ultrastructural immunogold labeling techniques. Collagenase was expressed on the extracellular face of the plasma membrane. Furthermore, the immunogold labeling was concentrated on the long, finger-like microvillous projections typically seen on the basal cell surface, while the short, brush-like projections characteristic of the apical cell surface were unlabeled. When the cytoplasmic face of the membrane was made accessible, the number of reactive sites increased markedly, indicating a high concentration of enzyme at the inner surface of the plasma membrane. When plasma membrane fractions of RWP-I cells were prepared by differential centrifugation, high salt washes virtually failed to extract collagenase activity from the membrane, while detergent extraction with n-octyl glucoside, a detergent used in the purification of integral membrane proteins, yielded soluble collagenase activity. When detergent extracted membrane fractions were passed over an anticollagenase immunoaffinity column, collagenase was specifically bound, as demonstrated by the TCA and TCB degradation of type I collagen by the bound material. Gelatinolytic activity did not bind to the column. Furthermore, immunoprecipitation of 125I-labeled detergent extracts of tumor membranes yielded a single Mr 55,000 band consistent with the zymogen form of the connective tissue collagenase. These morphological and biochemical findings suggest that collagenase is a tightly associated component of the basal plasma membrane, where it occupies a strategic location for directional proteolysis during cell migration and invasion.

Abstract
We describe a simple procedure to measure precisely the tip diameter of glass micropipets. This procedure can improve the precision of microinjection and some electrophysiological measurements due to their extreme sensitivity to the pipet's exact geometric dimensions. The technique is nondestructive and readily carried out as a brief, extra step in these applications. Digital measurements of the threshold pressures for gas bubbling from (gas filled) pipets submerged in methanol were used to calculate the corresponding inner tip diameters using the LaPlace equation. Direct measurements of the inner tip diameters (from 0.2-5.0 mu) using scanning electron microscopy confirmed the validity of this indirect, simple procedure.

Abstract
The most serious and frequent complication of intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) is intracranial hemorrhage. Identification of patients at greatest risk for intracranial bleeding would be beneficial. Detailed analysis of vascular architecture was performed in 65 patients with intracranial AVMs to identify the vascular characteristics that correlated with hemorrhage. Fifteen characteristics were assessed. Hemorrhage was present in 45 patients (69%). The following characteristics correlated positively with hemorrhage (Fisher-Irwin exact test): central venous drainage (P less than .0001), periventricular or intraventricular location of the AVM (P = .0002), and intranidal aneurysm (P = .028). The following characteristics correlated negatively with hemorrhage: angiomatous change (P = .0005), peripheral venous drainage (P = .005), and mixed venous drainage (P = .021). Multivariate linear discriminant analysis demonstrated that central venous drainage, angiomatous change (negatively predictive), intranidal aneurysm, and periventricular or intraventricular location of the AVM were the most discriminating or predictive characteristics of hemorrhage. Detailed analysis of the vascular architecture of intracranial AVMs helped identify features that strongly correlate with clinical hemorrhage and have important prognostic implications for the treatment of patients with these lesions.

Abstract
We investigated whether polyaspartic acid (PAA) can inhibit aminoglycoside-induced perturbations of phospholipid metabolism in cultured renal cells of opossum and rabbit and examined the mechanism involved. Cells incubated in medium containing gentamicin (10(-3) M) manifested a time-dependent increase in total phospholipid in association with the appearance of lysosomal myeloid bodies, impaired degradation of phospholipid, and disruption of the phosphatidylinositol (PI) cascade in response to bradykinin stimulation. These alterations of phospholipid metabolism were either completely or almost completely prevented in cells grown in medium containing gentamicin (10(-3) M) and PAA (3 x 10(-4) M, mol wt 11,000) even though PAA did not inhibit the cellular accumulation of gentamicin (40 +/- 1 vs. 42 +/- 1 micrograms/mg protein). In other in vitro studies, we demonstrated that gentamicin depressed the permeability of phosphatidylcholine (PC)/PI liposomes to glycerol and promoted liposomal aggregation. Both effects were blocked by prior addition of PAA. Methylene blue, a cationic dye, was shown to form an electrostatic complex with PAA; gentamicin competitively displaced methylene blue bound to PAA. Our results support the conclusion that the protective effect of PAA is related to its ability to serve as an anionic substrate that electrostatically binds aminoglycoside antibiotics and, thereby, prevents these polycationic drugs from interacting electrostatically with anionic phospholipid of cell membranes.

Abstract
Twenty patients with capillary/cavernous hemangiomas of the periorbital area (eyelid, eyebrow, nose extending to canthus) have been treated with a variety of techniques. Six patients were treated by yttrium-aluminum-garnet (YAG) laser photocoagulation and direct injection of steroids. Rapid shrinkage of the hemangiomas occurred in all patients, and 2 infants whose eye was totally occluded by the hemangioma had their eyes rapidly opened. YAG laser excision with or without previous photocoagulation plus injection and with arteriogram plus superselective embolization was performed in the other 14 patients. Results were satisfactory in all patients.

Abstract
The expression of keratins in normal cervical epithelia, metaplastic epithelium, and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grades I, II, and III is investigated with a panel of keratin polypeptide-specific monoclonal antibodies. This approach allowed the detection of individual keratins 4, 7, 8, 10, 13, 14, 18, and 19 at the single-cell level. By using an antibody recognizing keratins 5 and 8 (RCK 102) and two antibodies specific for keratin 8 (CAM 5.2 and M 20), it was also possible to derive information on the distribution of keratin 5. Our results show that during immature squamous metaplasia there is an acquisition of keratins typical of squamous epithelium, ie, keratins 4, 5, 13, and 14. This process continues during further differentiation to mature squamous metaplasia. In premalignant lesions the expression pattern of the progenitor reserve cells and immature squamous metaplastic epithelium is partly conserved. However, in most cases an induction in the expression of the keratins 4, 13, and 14 was observed. Furthermore, CIN III shows a more extensive expression of keratins typical of simple epithelia, ie, keratins 8 and 18, as compared to CIN I and CIN II.

Abstract
Differentiation of benign from pathologic compression fractures of vertebral bodies was evaluated with magnetic resonance imaging in a prospective study of 53 patients. Twenty-six patients had 34 benign posttraumatic compression fractures. Twenty-seven patients had metastatic disease to the vertebral column and seven pathologic fractures. T1- and T2-weighted spin-echo (SE) sequences (1.5 T) were performed in all patients. A presaturation technique was used to obtain "fat" and "water" images to better assess the degree of normal fatty marrow replacement in fractured vertebrae. Short inversion-time inversion-recovery (STIR) images were also obtained. Discrimination between benign and pathologic compression fractures was generally possible with the SE sequences. Chronic benign fractures demonstrated isointense marrow signal intensity (SI), compared with that of normal vertebrae with all sequences. Pathologic fractures showed low SI on T1-weighted images and high SI on T2-weighted images. Fat images revealed complete replacement of normal fatty marrow, shown as absent SI in the involved vertebral body. Water and STIR images showed diffuse high SI in pathologic fractures, with STIR images having the highest contrast between abnormal and normal marrow. Acute benign compression fractures also demonstrated high SI on T2-weighted, water, and STIR images, but the SI was less pronounced and the pattern was generally more inhomogeneous than that of pathologic compressions. In general, fat images showed only partial replacement of normal fatty marrow by low SI, in contrast to the complete absence of marrow SI typical of pathologic fractures.

Abstract
A massive cavernous hemangioma of the face in an 11 month old child has been successfully resected utilizing a combination of laser and non-laser techniques. The hemangioma was initially treated twice with YAG laser photocoagulation plus direct injection of steroids. This treatment promptly stopped the rapid growth and induced blanching as well as a 25% shrinkage with each treatment. Arteriogram with superselective embolization produced a further shrinkage of the hemangioma. Finally, the contact YAG laser with sapphire scalpel tips was utilized for complete and cosmetically satisfactory hemangioma resection. The treatment of a massive cavernous hemangioma by a combination of modalities is discussed.

Abstract
Maize leaves are divided into repeated longitudinal units consisting of vascular tissue, bundle sheath (BS), and mesophyll (M) cells. We have carried out a cell lineage analysis of these cell types using six spontaneous striping mutants of maize. We show that certain cell division patterns are preferentially utilized, but not required, to form the characteristic arrangement of cell types. Our data suggest that early in development a central cell layer is formed, most frequently by periclinal divisions in the adaxial subepidermal layer of the leaf primordium. Lateral and intermediate veins are initiated in this central layer, most often by divisions which contribute daughter cells to both the procambium and the ground meristem. These divisions generate "half vein" units which comprise half of the bundle sheath cells around a vein and a single adjacent M cell. We show that intermediate veins are multiclonal both in this transverse direction and along their lengths. BS cells are more closely related to M cells in the middle layer of the leaf than to those in the upper and lower subepidermal layers. An examination of sector boundaries has shown that photosynthetic differentiation in M cells is affected by the phenotype of neighboring BS cells.

Lateral and intermediate veins are initiated in this central layer, most often by divisions which contribute daughter cells to both the procambium and the ground meristem. These divisions generate "half vein" units which comprise half of the bundle sheath cells around a vein and a single adjacent M cell. We show that intermediate veins are multiclonal both in this transverse direction and along their lengths. BS cells are more closely related to M cells in the middle layer of the leaf than to those in the upper and lower subepidermal layers. An examination of sector boundaries has shown that photosynthetic differentiation in M cells is affected by the phenotype of neighboring BS cells.

Abstract
We examined the hypothesis that the accumulation of phospholipid in cells exposed to gentamicin is due to impaired degradation. Experiments were performed in rabbit proximal tubular cells grown in primary culture. Cells exposed to 10(-3) M gentamicin manifested myeloid body formation and a progressive increase in total phospholipid that by day 6 was 44% higher than that of control cells and reflected increases of phosphatidylinositol of 235%, phosphatidylcholine of 60%, phosphatidylethanolamine of 90%, and phosphatidylserine of 55% above control values. Gentamicin impaired the degradation of these phospholipids. The t1/2 of the phospholipid pool labeled with [3H]myoinositol increased 146% from 1.17 (control) to 2.88 days (gentamicin); the t1/2 of the [3H]choline pool increased 34% from 1.77 to 2.38 days; the t1/2 of the [3H]ethanolamine pool increased 57% from 3.14 to 4.93 days; the t1/2 of the [3H] serine pool increased 37% from 6.30 to 8.63 days. Exposure of cells to gentamicin for 2 days also stimulated increased incorporation of [3H]myoinositol (68%) and [3H]ethanolamine (59%) into phospholipid. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that gentamicin inhibits the activity of lysosomal phospholipases that results in the accumulation of phospholipid within the lysosome in the form of myeloid bodies. Increased phospholipid synthesis may represent a compensatory response to the impaired lysosomal degradation of phospholipid. We postulate that the preferential increase of phosphatidylinositol reflects the capacity of the polycationic gentamicin to interact electrostatically with the anionic phosphoinositides and inhibit their turnover.
