- 1.1. Osmotic measurements were made on the perivisceral coelomic and water vascular fluids of 4 species of northwest Pacific starfish and their stable sea-water media.
- 2.2. Mean levels of both fluids were hyperosmotic in every species, often at statistically significant levels.
- 3.3. For all species combined, mean hyperosmolality (mosmol/kg ± SE) of perivisceral coelomic fluid was 1.49 ± 0.17, and water vascular fluid 6.07 ± 0.74.
- 4.4. The hyperosmotic nature of these fluids contributes to water balance, working in conjunction with madreporitic inflow and other factors.

- 1.1. A large amount of coelomic fluid appears at the moment of ovulation in Salmonidae, and the ovulated eggs lie free in the body cavity.
- 2.2. Ion composition and osmolality of the coelomic fluid of the mature female salmon, Oncorhynchus keta, were approximately the same as those of the blood plasma, although an excess of sodium chloride and low levels of organic constituents were noted in the coelomic fluid.
- 3.3. On transfer from seawater to freshwater, a significant reduction in ion concentrations and osmolality of the coelomic fluid was observed in close association with the changes in the plasma values.

- 1.1. Weight change after submerging the earthworm into water varied remarkably according to the environmental humidity in which animals were placed before submergence.
- 2.2. Pretreatment with physiological saline solution before submergence in water gave stable values for the ionic concentrations of the body fluid.
- 3.3. Brain removal caused decrease of both sodium and chloride ion concentrations and increase of potassium ion concentration of the coelomic fluid when animals were submerged in water.
- 4.4. Although brain replacement failed, action of a brain hormone is suggested to regulate the decrease of both sodium and choride ions and increase of potassium ion of the coelomic fluid to normal level when animals were submerged in water.

- 1.1. The types of haemocytes during larval development were studied.
- 2.2. The developmental profile of leucine aminopeptidase and alkaline phosphatase was studied. The maximum LAP activity was found to be in early larval development, while the maximum alkaline phosphatase during the white pupal stage.
- 3.3. These activities were compared with those determined in cell-free haemolymph.
- 4.4. Both hydrolytic enzymes have been found histochemically in the prohaemocytes and in the plasmatocytes.
- 5.5. In cultured haemocytes experiments it was found that 64% of the total LAP activity was secreted into the incubation medium, while electrophoretic analysis of released LAP activity demonstrated that only LAP A isozyme was secreted.
- 6.6. Based on the above results we suggest that both hydrolytic enzymes are functionally important throughout larval development.

- 1.1. Phosphatase activities were determined in various seminal fluid and plant tissues.
- 2.2. Human semen showed a markedly higher phosphatase activity, and some plants and mushrooms exhibited a considerably higher phosphatase activity.
- 3.3. Phosphatase purified from human seminal fluid showed a pH optimum of 5–6 and was potently inhibited by l-(+)-tartrate.
- 4.4. Tartrate could not inhibit most plant phosphatases, but inhibited the mushroom phosphatase with a one-order lower affinity than that of the seminal enzyme.

- 1.l. High amino acid concentrations were found in the anterior coelomic fluid of a Polychaeta (Sabella pavonina Savigny).
- 2.2. The concentrations being much higher in the fluid which penetrates the nephrostomia into the nephridia lumen than in the final urine indicates that the nephridia reabsorbs large amounts of amino acids.
- 3.3. Nephridial perfusion experiments showed that an amino acid analogue (α-amino-iso-butyric acid, AIB) is transported by the nephidia.
- 4.4. The transport took place across the nephridial wall owing to the presence of a carrier-mediated transport system and a diffusion system.
- 5.5. For the carrier-mediated transport, the Vmax was 0.234 ± 0.025 nmol·min− and the Km 3.715 ± 0.315mmol·l−.
- 6.6. AIB accumulated in the nephridial cells up to a maximum rate of 01.17 nmol·min−.
- 7.7. Intracellular accumulation stopped increasing when the Vmax for reabsorption was reached.
- 8.8. These results indicate that the carrier-mediated transport of AIB is located at the apical membrane of the nephridial cell, and that AIB transport by simple diffusion takes place through the paracellular pathway.

- 1.1. The concentrations of echinochrome-A in coelomic fluid from healthy specimens of the sea urchin Echinus esculentus (L.) ranged from 3 to 60 μg/ml, with a geometric mean of 14 μg/ml.
- 2.2. Echinochrome-A (50 μg/ml) dissolved in sea water, with the aid of mammalian proteins as dispersants, was bactericidal or bacteriostatic towards six out of seven strains of marine gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria.
- 3.3. Echinochrome-A is suggested as a major factor in the bactericidal activity of coelomic fluid from E. esculentus.

- 1.1. The concentrations (mM) of osmolytes in the coelomic fluid of Luidia clathrata kept at 25‰S seawater (control individuals) were: 345, Na+; 10, K+; 10, Ca2+; 44, Mg2+; 387, Cl−; 0.67, amino acids; 0.09, NH4+.
- 2.2. When individuals were transferred from 25‰S to 15‰S or 35‰S, the concentrations of inorganic ions in the coelomic fluid usually equilibrated within 24hr and became the same as those in the medium.
- 3.3. The intracellular water content (g intracellular H2O/g solute-free dry tissue) of the pyloric caeca and tube feet of control individuals throughout the experiment was 2.13 and 5.40, respectively.
- 4.4. In tissues of individuals transferred to 15‰S, the intracellular water content increased by an average 50% in 12 hr but returned to 19% above control levels during 1 week.
- 5.5. In tissues of individuals transferred to 35‰S, the intracellular water content decreased by an average 17% in 12 hr and did not change during 1 week.
- 6.6. Luidia clathrata is an osmoconformer and partial cell volume regulator within the seasonal salinity range it encounters.

- 7.7. The acid phosphatase of all the Elapidae venoms was not inhibited by zinc ion. However, most of the venom alkaline phosphatases were inhibited by zinc ion.
- 8.8. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) had inhibitory action on venom phosphatase activity. However, tris-(hydroxymethyl)-aminoethane had a counter effect on the inhibitory action of EDTA.
- 9.9. Optimum pH studies of the snake venom phosphatases showed that the acid phosphatases of the snake venoms had their highest activity in the range of pH 4–5. The alkaline phosphatases of the snake venoms had their optimum pH at 9.

- 1.1. At 37 stations in the English Channel and the southern North Sea concentrations of four brominated phenols in Lanice conchilega were determined using ECD equipped capillary gas chromatography: 2,4-dibromophenol, 2,6-dibromo-4-methylphenol, 2,4,6-tribromophenol, 3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde.
- 2.2. Concentrations in worms of the southern North Sea were generally below 1 μg/g wet wt.
- 3.3. Levels were slightly raised in worms of sheltered shores, those of 3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde were increased in subtidal populations.
- 4.4. Concentrations in L. conchilega of Brittany were considerably higher than those in worms of the Frisian Islands, North Sea; they deviated from the latter by factors of 3, 16, 4, 4, respectively.
- 5.5. The reasons for the conspicuous differences are hitherto unknown; three explanations are suggested.

- 1.1. Cellular and intracellular localization of catalase and acid phosphomonoesterase in the midgut of Lumbricus terrestris was studied by use of tissue fractionation.
- 2.2. At least 60–70% of the catalase resides in the chloragocyte cytosol and the remaining 30–40% resides in gut epithelium peroxisomes.
- 3.3. One of the main functions of the chloragocyte catalase is probably scavenging for H2O2 arising from the interaction between blood heme-protein and oxygen.
- 4.4. A simple method for the histochemical detection of cytosol catalase is proposed.
- 5.5. About 10% of the gut acid phosphatase resides in chloragocyte lysosomes. The chloragosomes contain no acid phosphatase.

- 1.1. Human placental alkaline phosphatase was inactivated with tetranitromethane in a biphasic process.
- 2.2. Spectral and amino acid analysis demonstrated that the inactivation was due to the conversion of tyrosine residues to 3-nitrotyrosine.
- 3.3. The inactivation process showed saturation kinetics.
- 4.4. Protection of the enzyme against tetranitromethane inactivation was afforded by inorganic phosphate.
- 5.5. The binding affinity between the modified enzyme and inorganic phosphate was decreased.
- 6.6. Our results suggest the involvement of tyrosyl residues in the locus of phosphoryl site of the phosphorylated enzyme forms.

- 1.1. The oxygen affinity of Urechis caupo coelomic cells is the same in normoxic and in hypoxic animals. There is no Bohr effect between pH 6.8 and 8.0.
- 2.2. The oxygen affinity of intact coelomic cells is the same as that of extracted, stripped hemoglobin. The oxygen binding properties of stripped hemoglobin are not affected by 1 mM ATP, IMP, or hydrogen ions between pH 6.8 and 8.0, nor do they clearly show cooperativity. The heat of oxygenation. ΔH, = −13.1 kcal/mol between 10 and 25 C.
- 3.3. Although U. caupo coelomic cell hemoglobin is tetrameric and intracellular, it apparently exhibits neither heterotropic nor homotropic interactions.
