Non-myelinated nerve fibres are present in the ventral roots at all levels though the largest number are found inthe thoracic and L1, L5, L6 and S1 ventral roots. The number is very small in L2, L3, and L4 ventral roots which are those supplying the hind limb. Fibre diameter histograms were obtained from measurements of cross sectional area for myelinated and non-myelinated fibres in L1 and L4 ventral roots. The relationship of myelin thickness to axon diameter shows that to a near approximation the myelin thickness is 1/5 to 1/4 the axon diameter. A measure of circularity was calculated, the ratio of the measured cross-sectional area to the area calculated from the measured perimeter assuming the fibre to be circular, and plotted against the axon perimeter fo L1 and L4 ventral root myelinated fibres, This showed a tendency for larger fibres to be less circular than smaller fibres.","PeriodicalId":77774,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly journal of experimental physiology (Cambridge, England)","volume":"67 3","pages":"473-94"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1113/expphysiol.1982.sp002663","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18128421","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Linear Scatchard plots of binding data obtained from 15 d control and cafeteria groups indicated a single class of receptor, with the same affinity for GDP in all animals, but the maximum number of binding sites was markedly elevated in cafeteria rats and was increased further after treatment with noradrenaline 1 h prior to sacrifice. When cafeteria-fed rats were returned to stock diet alone the differences in b.a.t. mass and GDP binding diminished but after 10 d brown fat mass and noradrenaline-stimulated GDP binding were still significantly higher than control levels. These data provide further evidence for the involvement of b.a.t. and its mitochondrial proton conductance pathway in diet-induced changes in thermogenic capacity.","PeriodicalId":77774,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly journal of experimental physiology (Cambridge, England)","volume":"67 2","pages":"259-68"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1113/expphysiol.1982.sp002634","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18124266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During experiments bile was returned to the small intestine, via a second catheter, by means of a small pump which also measured bile flow rates. The mean +/- S.E. of the mean rate of bile flow in fed ponies with an intact enterohepatic circulation of bile salts was 1.33 +/- 0.10 ml/kg . h, n = 13; mean +/- S.E. of the mean concentration of bilirubin in bile was 10.82 +/- 0.91 mg/dl, n = 13. The effect on bile flow and bilirubin excretion in bile of a standard feed lasting 2 h was compared with that of an intraduodenal or intravascular 2 h infusion of glucose (50 g/h) before and after a short period of fasting (approximately 2 d). Prior to the fast, bile flow and bilirubin excretion in bile rose by 38.5 and 39.0% respectively following a feed. Glucose infused intravascularly or intraduodenally did not alter bilirubin excretion. Following a two day fast, bilirubin excretion in bile rose 72.7% to 136.5% following feeding and 65.2% to 120.3% when glucose was infused either intravascularly or intraduodenally. A correlation between plasma glucose and bilirubin excretion in bile was observed when the pony was fed or glucose infused intraduodenally. When glucose was infused intravascularly a correlation was only observed in a single experiment in which glucose was infused over 10 h at the lower rate of 24 g/h. It appears that an infusion of glucose can mimic the effects of a feed on bilirubin excretion in bile following a short fast, but not preceding it.","PeriodicalId":77774,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly journal of experimental physiology (Cambridge, England)","volume":"67 2","pages":"311-21"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1113/expphysiol.1982.sp002639","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18124269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both unidirectional Na fluxes increase to the same extent with an increase in vascular flow so there is no apparent effect of flow on net Na movement. Raising the vascular flow rate in individual experiments increases the lumen-blood Na flux proportionately, but reducing the flow from an initially high value reduces the lumen-blood flux only slowly at first then more rapidly. The unidirectional Na fluxes increase linearly as the lumen flow rate is increased. In the colon increasing the vascular flow rate also increases the lumen-blood Na flux but changing the vascular flow rate has little effect on the blood-lumen flux, the net absorption of Na is invariably increased as the vascular flow increases. Using 14C-labelled sucrose as a marker for the extracellular space of the small intestine, it can be shown that the increases in Na flux found with increased vascular flow rates are associated with an increase in this sucrose space. An increase in sucrose space, therefore, seems to enhance the accessibility of the low resistance, paracellular pathways for Na to and from the blood across the epithelium.","PeriodicalId":77774,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly journal of experimental physiology (Cambridge, England)","volume":"67 2","pages":"323-34"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1113/expphysiol.1982.sp002640","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18027240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Udder volume and milk yield were also measured. The marked variation between goats in the time after parturition at which peak milk yield is attained and in the rate of decline after peak is illustrated. Hourly milking had a stimulatory effect on the rate of milk secretion in early lactation (before peak) and in declining lactation (after peak), in both cases at previous milk yields of 1.1 - 1.48 g/ml udder volume . d. There was no stimulatory effect of hourly milking on milk yield at or near peak lactation (yield before the experiment greater than 1.48 g/ml volume . d) or in late lactation (less than 1.1 g/ml . d). The responses of milk yield to hourly milking are discussed in relation to the factors which limit the rate of secretion. In particular, it is concluded that a stimulatory response indicates that before the experiment the rate of secretion could not have been limited directly by the arterial supply of one or more substrates for milk synthesis.

NADH redox state was measured simultaneously in both regions using a two-channel surface fluorometer. It was found that ligation was followed by an immediate fall in local coronary blood flow to the ischaemic region, accompanied by a sharp elevation in NADH redox level. Local contractile force in the ischaemic region was also reduced. The non-ischaemic region showed little or no change following occlusion. Response to heart rate elevation before ligation was increased work, elevation of NADH redox levels, and increased coronary flow. Following ligation, this response was attenuated in the ischaemic region, but not abolished.

A linear relationship between acutely induced changes in plasma phosphate concentration and the phosphate level in saliva has been demonstrated in both intact and t.x.p.t.x. animals. Dietary phosphorus depletion caused adaptation of salivary phosphate concentration so that less was secreted at a given concentration of plasma phosphate. Attention is drawn to the similarity between this phenomenon and that already described for the proximal renal tubule. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) was shown to reduce the salivary phosphate concentration with little or no effect on phosphataemia. The administration of 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol (1,25(OH)2CC) also caused a reduction in salivary phosphate concentration despite hyperphosphataemia and hypercalcaemia. It is suggested that salivary phosphate concentration can be influenced directly by the concurrent level of plasma phosphate but that this relationship can be modified by the circulating concentration of 1,25(OH)2CC and indirectly by PTH via increased production of 1,25(OH)2CC.","PeriodicalId":77774,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly journal of experimental physiology (Cambridge, England)","volume":"67 2","pages":"269-80"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1113/expphysiol.1982.sp002635","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"17946304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Higher frequencies of parasympathetic nerve stimulation during the obstructive period induced greater increases in the permeability. It is likely that the intraluminal distensions had disrupted some tight junctions and so permitted a greater paracellular leakiness. The damage tended to induce ballooning between striated ductal cells, similar to the appearances observed by Emmelin, Garrett & Gjörstrup (1977 a) when sympathetic secretion was accompanied by myoepithelial contraction against a raised outflow pressure. The present results have been compared with experimental data from other workers and give support to the idea that tight junctions can behave in a sieve-like manner towards the back-diffusion of molecules across them. This work indicates that there is a great need for care in permeability studies. It is possible that some permeability changes observed by other workers may have been the consequences of physical damage between cells. Our findings reinforce the need for morphological assessment of the glands after permeability experiments. In man it is likely that naturally occurring or artificially induced obstructive events may at times create similar permeability changes and these may enable protective substances to pass from the blood to the saliva. This affords possible explanation for such phenomena as the therapeutic value that often accrues from sialography and the efficacy of many different antibiotics in obstructive sialadenitis, despite the fact that most antibiotics do not normally permeate to the saliva.","PeriodicalId":77774,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly journal of experimental physiology (Cambridge, England)","volume":"67 2","pages":"349-59"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1113/expphysiol.1982.sp002642","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18124271","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Input to the cord is precisely organized: the primary afferent fibres from different types of receptors distribute their anatomically specific collaterals to particular parts of the dorsal horn, afferent fibres from the skin lay down a precise somatotopic map, input to the dorsal horn from descending systems is also distributed in a localized way. The neurones of the dorsal horn are varied in both structure and function, even so some quite specific cell types can be identified and the dendritic trees may respect laminar boundaries as determined cytoarchitectonically (although the majority of neurones have dendrites that cut across these boundaries). The output pathways from the dorsal horn are many and various, but again they arise from cells in definite parts of the dorsal horn. The dorsal horn must be considered as a well-organized, and complex, part of the central nervous system. It cannot be considered as a structural or functional unit but is made up of many interacting parts that process input from the primary afferent fibres, from other levels of the spinal cord and from many descending pathways from the brain.","PeriodicalId":77774,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly journal of experimental physiology (Cambridge, England)","volume":"67 2 1","pages":"193-212"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1982-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69633480","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
