Bilateral changes in glutamate uptake,muscarinic receptor binding and acetylcholinesterase level in the rat hippocampus after unilateral entorhinal cortex lesions

This report examines the effects of unilateral electrolytic and knife-cut lesions of entorhinal cortex on glutamate uptake, the muscarinic receptor [³H]QNB binding and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in the dorsal and ventral parts of the ipsi- and contralateral hippocampus of the rat.We found that (1) in unoperated, control rats there are no pre-existing differences in the level of the investigated markers between the right and left hippocampus, (2) both electrolytic and knife-cut lesions of the entorhinal cortex evoke bilateral changes in the investigated markers and (3) the character of the response is dependent on the survival time and on the hippocampal part involved. Four days after operation a substantial reduction in glutamate uptake was found in both the dorsal and ventral parts of the ipsi- and contralateral hippocampus. At the same time there was a drop in muscarinic receptor binding, while AChE activity was not affected. The decrease in glutamate uptake persisted on the 21st postoperative day, whereas muscarinic receptor binding was enhanced, in comparison with the control level, in the ventral part of both the ipsi- and contralateral hippocampus. This overshoot was not so evident on the 30th postoperative day; glutamate uptake at that time reached or even surpassed the control level. Enhancement of AChE activity on the ipsi- and contralateral sides was noted on both the 21st and 30th day after operation.We suggest the following interpretation of these results: (1) glutamatergic projections from the entorhinal cortex to the hippocampus are bilateral, (2) some transneuronal changes probably contribute to the decline in glutamate uptake, particularly on the contralateral side, (3) neuronal depolarization does not seem to be the only mechanism responsible for the decrease in muscarinic receptor binding and (4) some compensatory mechanisms occur in the hippocampus at a later time after the lesion.Moreover, we believe that the use of the contralateral side as a control should be considered with caution in studies with unilaterally lesioned animals.     

Inhibiting scar formation in rat wounds by adenovirus-mediated overexpression of truncated TGF-beta receptor II

The purpose of this study was to explore the possibility of inhibiting wound scarring by blocking TGFbeta signaling of wound cells by means of a gene therapy approach. Normal dermal fibroblasts were infected in vitro either with recombinant adenovirus encoding a truncated TGFbeta receptor II (Ad-tTGF-betaRII) or with [beta]-galactosidase adenovirus (Ad-beta-gal). TGF-beta1 gene expression in infected fibroblasts was analyzed by Northern blot. In vivo, 1x10(9) plaque-forming units of Ad-tTGF-betaRII were intradermally injected into the dorsal skin of 10-day-old newborn Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 10). For gene therapy, 1x10(9) plaque-forming units of Ad-tTGF-betaRII viruses were injected intradermally at the right side dorsal skin of another set of same aged Sprague-Dawley rats as the experimental group (n = 15). In the control group, 1x10(9) plaque-forming units of Ad-beta-gal (n = 11) or the same volume of saline (n = 4) was injected at the left side skin of the same rats. A 5-mm-long full-thickness incisional wound was created at the injection sites of each rat 2 days after injection. Wound tissues were harvested at day 3 (n = 2), day 7 (n = 2), and day 14 (n = 11) after wounding for histological analysis. Scar area of wound tissues harvested at day 14 was quantitatively analyzed. The results showed that TGF-beta1 gene expression was markedly down-regulated in Ad-tTGF-betaRII infected fibroblasts compared with Ad-beta-gal infected cells. In vivo, adenovirus-mediated transgene expression in rat skin reached a peak level at day 2 after injection and the expression gradually decreased afterward. Inhibited inflammatory reaction was also observed in the treated wounds with significantly reduced inflammatory cells (p < 0.05). Moreover, in all 11 rats, the experimental wound at day 14 had much less scarring than its control wound of the same rat, with an average of 49 percent reduction of the scar area (p < 0.05). Furthermore, more panniculus muscles were repaired in the experimental wounds (nine of 11) than in the control wounds (two of 11) (p < 0.05). These results indicate that gene therapy by targeting wound TGF-beta can effectively inhibit wound scarring and may potentially be applied to clinical scar treatment.     

Neotropical Monogenoidea. 33. Three new species of Ancistrohaptor n. g. (Dactylogyridae,Ancyrocephalinae) on Triportheus spp. (Teleostei,Characidae) from Brazil,with checklists of ancyrocephalines recorded from neotropical characiform fishes

Three new species of Ancistrohaptor n. g. are described from the gills of three species of Triportheus (Characidae) collected from the environs of Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil: A. falcatum n. sp. from T. elongatus; and A. falciferum n. sp. and A. falcunculum n. sp. from T. angulatus, T. albus and T. elongatus. Ancistrohaptor n. g. is proposed for species possessing overlapping gonads, a dextral or dextroventral vaginal aperture, a coiled (counter-clockwise) male copulatory organ, two accessory pieces in the copulatory complex, and a haptor armed with two pairs of anchors (ventral anchor with elongate shaft), dorsal and ventral bars and 14 hooks; hook pair 1 (ventral) anterior to ventral bar, pairs 2–4 (ventral) lying bilaterally anterior to ventral anchor bases, pair 5 (ventral) associated with distal end of ventral anchor shafts, and pairs 6 and 7 (dorsal) bilateral about midway along haptoral length. Parasite-host and host-parasite lists of the Ancyrocephalinae from neotropical Characiformes are provided.     

The Ultrabithorax gene of Drosophila and the specification of abdominal histoblasts.

Separation of the imaginal and larval developmental pathways in Drosophila occurs early in embryogenesis, resulting in the formation of imaginal discs and abdominal histoblast nests along the larval body wall. The dorsal and ventral histoblast nests within the first abdominal (A1) segment are shown not to be segmentally homologous with the metathoracic (T3) haltere and leg discs, respectively, since they occur at distinct dorso-ventral locations during normal development and can be found together within the same segment in mutants of the Bithorax complex (BX-C) where T3 is transformed towards A2-A4 or A1 towards T3. Several patterning abnormalities are also observed in BX-C mutants. A ventral shift in the A1 ventral nest occurs in partially transformed larvae harboring weak bithoraxoid (bxd) mutations; in more fully transformed larvae (Ubx1/Df) both the anterior dorsal and ventral nests are lost and instead a dorsal and ventral disc bud are formed. Dorso-ventral inversions in the pattern of the ventral nest occur in a random fashion throughout A1-A7 in response to an increase or decrease in the gene dosage of the BX-C. In gain-of-function mutants anterior dorsal histoblast cells form in the homologous anterior as well as the nonhomologous posterior portion of T3. Based on these and other findings it appears that the Ultrabithorax (Ubx) locus (and possibly abdominal-A and Abdominal-B) is required to steer ectodermal cells toward an imaginal histoblast rather than a larval cell fate at specific regions within the first abdominal segment.     

D-Aspartate Uptake and Release in the Guinea Pig Spinal Cord After Partial Ablation of the Cerebral Cortex

This study attempts to determine if L-glutamate and L-aspartate may be transmitters of the guinea pig corticospinal tract. Unilateral ablations were made of the frontal and parietal neocortex which destroyed most of the motor and somatosensory areas in the right cerebral hemisphere. In lesioned animals, transverse sections of the cervical enlargement of the spinal cord (segments C6--T1) were stained to reveal degenerating fibers. Degeneration of axons first appeared 4 days after surgery, reached a maximum on the seventh day, and began to wane by the ninth day. The most prominent loss of axons appeared deep in the dorsal funiculus and in laminae IV-IX of the gray matter contralateral to the cortical lesion. Ipsilaterally, there was very sparse degeneration of fibers in the dorsal and ventral funiculi and in the spinal gray matter. The uptake and release of D-[3H]aspartate, a putative nonmetabolizable marker for L-glutamate and L-aspartate, were measured in dissected quadrants of the cervical enlargement taken from intact and lesioned animals. The uptake and the electrically evoked, Ca2+-dependent release of D-[3H]aspartate were depressed by 29-35% at 4 and 7 days after surgery, but only in tissue that was contralateral to the cortical ablation. The lesion had no effect on the uptake and release of exogenous gamma-[14C]aminobutyric acid, which were measured as indices of the postlesion integrity of neurons in the spinal gray matter. These findings suggest that the synaptic endings of corticospinal fibers probably mediate the uptake and release of D-[3H]aspartate and, therefore, may use L-glutamate and/or L-aspartate as a transmitter.
