On the contrary, it rose np to 4 to 8 times of control level on occlusion of superior vena cava inclu ling azygos vein and it remained at the same level during observation of two hours. Some of experimental animals died during occlusion. 2) Good correlation was found betweeu intraspinal pressure and that of intracranial vein on occlusion of superior vena cava. 3) Decrease of blood flow to brain was compensated by increase of arterio-venous oxygen difference on occlusion of superior vena cava at the point distal to azygos vein. Hence, decrease of oxygen consumption of brain tissue was not significant. 4) Marked decrease in oxygen and glucose consumption of brain tissue developed 30 minutes after occlusion of superior vena cava including azygos vein, suggesting of development of impending damage of brain tissue. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=TagawaKazuo en-aut-sei=Tagawa en-aut-mei=Kazuo kn-aut-name=田川和夫 kn-aut-sei=田川 kn-aut-mei=和夫 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部砂田外科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4965 end-page=4980 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Experimental Study on Acute Occlusion of Superior Vena Cava Part I.

Occlusion of superior vena cave was made by catheter with inflatable baloon inserted into superior vena cava via jugular vein. Following results were obtained. 1) Azygos vein played the most important role as collateral circulation when superior vena cava was occluded. 2) A steady state of circulatory hemodynamics was reached about 30 minutes after acute occlusion of superior vena cava at the point distal to azygos vein and then gradually retnrned to normal state in accordance with complete development of collateral circulation. 3) Marked changes in circulatory hemodynamics developed when superior vena cava and azygos vein were concomitantly occluded. Dogs, whose azygos vein had been divided one week ago, died whthin 70 to 90 minutes on acute occlusion of superior vena cava. On the contrary, dogs, whose azygos vein had been divided two weeks ago, survived two hours' occlusion of superior vena cava. However, cardiac output did not return to preocclusion level even 20 minutes after release of occlusion. 4) The cause of death in the case of acute occlusion of superior vena cava including azygos vein was supposed to be central nature due to functional loss of central nervous system. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=TagawaKazuo en-aut-sei=Tagawa en-aut-mei=Kazuo kn-aut-name=田川和夫 kn-aut-sei=田川 kn-aut-mei=和夫 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部砂田外科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4959 end-page=4963 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Experiments on Anaphylaxis Part 3.

As for the passive anaphylaxis in guinea pigs by the serum of the rabbit immunized with bovine thymus aqueous extract, the bovine thymus and bovine thymus nucleoprotein clearly bring about anaphylaxis. 2. The same can be said in the case of passive anaphylaxis in guinea pigs by the serum of the rabbit immunized with bovine thymus nucleoprotein. 3. In passive Arthus phenomenon elicited by the serum of the rabbit immunized by bovine thymus aqueous extract, bovine thymus and thymus nucleoprotein elicit a strong reaction. 4. This is true even in passive Arthus phenomenon by the serum of the rabbit immunized with bovine thymus nucleoprotein. 5.

arrangement of the amount is this: - liver, bone marrow, kidney, spleen and abdominal lymphatic gland - and specially much at reticuloendothelial system. 2) In case of the abdominal injection, the highest storages at each organs are in 12 hours after the injection: and much at the abdominal lymphatic gland and some at liver, spleen and kidney and only a little at reticuloendothelial system. 3) In case of the hypodermic injection, the highest storage at each organs are in 24 hours after the injection and very a little distrbution is shown at reticuloendothelial system. 4) The antigen concentration in the blood and its excretion into the excrements are parallel each other. 5) The distribution and storage of the antigen in a cell are the most at mitochondria, the next microsome and the next nucleus. 6) The excretion of arsenic into the dung of I gramme is always more than that of the urine of I gramme. 7) The antigen amount given by the venous injection has been excreted into the excrements in II days, and in 15 days arsenic not seen. 8) The antigen is distributed to a lung much specially at the test of the anaphylactic shock death compared with a standard example and the

Various investigators entertain different views on these problems but their views are still quite conflicting with one another. In the present experiment the author made an attempt to pursue the relationship between circumscribed eosinophilia and the prognosis in cervical cancer. The author used the same materials as mentioned in part 1 for this investigation, and obtained the following results. 1. In both those given surgical treatment and those given radiation treatment there can be recognized not any diffrence in the prognosis between those who show a slight infiltration of eosinophils and these with no infaltration, but the prognosis is better in those showing the strong infiltration of eosinophils than that in those with a slight infiltration or without infiltration. 2. Findings of the prognosis in cervical cancer according to the grades of stromal inflammation and circumbscribed eosinophilia show closely resembling results in both stronger and weaker grads, and it is difficult to say which is the better. However, when the both findings are summarily judged, better results can be attained. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=FukaiJunichi en-aut-sei=Fukai en-aut-mei=Junichi kn-aut-name=深井潤一 kn-aut-sei=深井 kn-aut-mei=潤一 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部産科婦人科学教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4881 end-page=4888 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Relationship between Inflammation and its Prognosis in Carcinoma of the Cervix Part 1.

However, in 1949 Imai stated that the stromal reaction is closely associated with the prognosis in his report on C. P. L. classification and he emphasized that anti-earcinomataus factor exists in the stromal tissue of cancer. Being greatly attracted by his theory, the author studied inflammatory picture in uterine cancer and at the same time pursued the relationship between the inflammation and its prognosis. The materials used in the present investigation were specimens obtained from 902 cases of cervical cancer, treated in the Dept. of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Okayama University Medical Shcool during 12-year period from 1938 to 1949. As the results the author arrived at the following conclusions. 1. In both those given surgical treatment and those given radiation treatment, the prognosis is better in those showing a stronger inflammation in stroma than in those showing a weaker one. 2. However, only the case at the stage-IV cancer (rediation treatment) is an exception to this rule. 3. As for the relationship between Nagase's classification and the degree of inflammation, there can be recognized no great difference in the incidence of strong inflammation between type-I (58%) and type-II (55%), but the incidence of strong inflammation is least in type-III (28%). 4. The incidence of strong inflammation is greatest in the stage-II cancer (55%), followed by the stage-III cancer (46%), stage-I cancer (43%). and stage-IV cancer (42%) in the order mentioned. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=FukaiJunichi en-aut-sei=Fukai en-aut-mei=Junichi kn-aut-name=深井潤一 kn-aut-sei=深井 kn-aut-mei=潤一 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部産科婦人科学教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4875 end-page=4879 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Phosphoric Acid Metabolism in Cerebral Cortex Part III Phosphoric acid metabolism in cerebral cortex of rabbit anesthetized with ether kn-title=大脳皮質における燐酸代謝に関する研究 第3編 エーテル麻酔家兎大脳皮質の燐酸代謝について en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Phosphoric acic metabolism in the rabbit cerebral cortex, which was taken out after ether anesthesia, was studied in vitro by the same method described in Part I.

A study on non-tumorous ascites kn-title=体外組織培養法による人腹水の細胞学的研究 第3編 非腫瘍性疾病時腹水に就いて en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=In the vital observations on 19 cases of liver cirrhosis, 4 cases of tuberculous peritonitis, 3 cases of nephrosis, and two cases of cardiac insufficiency by means of tissue culture of ascites of respective group, the auther obtained the following results: 1. In the case of arcites of liver cirrhosis, the average cell count is 219/m㎥, and aside from phagocytes the appearance (average of 2.7%) of phagocytic sigenet-ring cells, a marked increase (average, 9.2%) of serous cells, a slight increase (average, 2.2%) of neutrophils can be recognized. The intermediatesize phagocytes have peculiar grass-like pseudopodia and serous cells have tongue-shaped pseudo-podia that are moving actively. 2. In the case of tuberculous peritonitis, the average cell count is 1, 820/mm3. There can be recognized such charachteristics as a marked increase (average, 51.7%) of small-size phagocytes, an increase (average, 39.9%) of lymphocytes, and the appearance of intermediatesize phagocytes shapedlike sea urchins as well as lymphocytes that move more actively six hours after the start of culture than at the initial stage of culture. 3. In the case of nephrosis an increase of small-size phagocytes and a slight increase of serous cells, but most of cells are degenerated, and also fibroblast-like degenrative intermediate-size phagocytes can be observed. 4. In the case of cardiac insufficiency, a slight increase of neutrophils can be observed, but the most outstanding characteristic in this case is an early degeneration of all cells. 5. As can be seen from the above, in the vital observations each kind of non-tumorous ascites has its own cytological charateristic traits and by these traits it is definitely possible to distinguish tumorous ascites from non-tumorous ones. Therefore, the clinical application of such vital observation offers a great promise in the differential diagnosis of ascites. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=IriéEtsuro en-aut-sei=Irié en-aut-mei=Etsuro kn-aut-name=入江悦郎 kn-aut-sei=入江 kn-aut-mei=悦郎 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部平木内科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4839 end-page=4847 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Cytological Studies on Human Ascites by Tissue Culture Part 2.

The average cell count is 642.5/m㎥. 2. The characteristics of the cell compestition are the appearance of tumor cells and tumorous signet-ring cells, a slight increase in the number of serous cells, a moderate increase of neutrophils, and the appearance of phagocytic signet-ring cells. 3. The detection of tumor cells and tumorous signet-ring cells is considered as the direct sign and the other cytological characteristics are considered as the indirect sign. 4. When the case showing less than six per cent of tumor cells is designated as group I, that over 20 par cent as group II, and hepatic cancer ascites as group III, each group presents respectively characteristic physio-chemical traits. 5. By vital observation tumorous signet-ring cells can be clearly distinguished from phagocytic signet-ring cells. 6. Cytological characteristics of different kinds of tumor cells, namely, adenoma, simple cancer, scirrhous cancer, colloid cancer, liver cancer, and coelothelioma cells, can be grasped by vital observation. 7. It has been possible to grasp the peculiarities of the cell-composition of ascites and cytological characterisitics of component cells as indirect sign, especially the characteristics differentiating tumor ascites from the ascites of liver cirrhosis. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=IriéEtsuro en-aut-sei=Irié en-aut-mei=Etsuro kn-aut-name=入江悦郎 kn-aut-sei=入江 kn-aut-mei=悦郎 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部平木内科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4831 end-page=4837 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Cytological Studies on Human Ascites by Tissue Culture Part 1.

The average cell count is 1, 161/mm3. 2. These cells are largely composed of phagocytes, mixed with a few lymphocytes, serous cells, neutrophils, eosinophils, and fat cells. 3. Phagocytes occupy 94.4 per cent of the total, and the majority of them are the intermediate-size phagocytes (46.4%), followed by small-size and large-size phagocytes. 4. The pattern of pseudopodia of the intermediate-size phagocytes resembles quite closely to that of monocytes, but with lapse of the culture time it undergoes some changes. Judging from the pattern of pseudopodia, transformation of the cell body, and modes of flow of the cellular granules, this cell seems to be a close relative of blood monocyte. However, the translocation of the cell is not quite so distinct. 5. Serous cells are small in number, but under the normal condition they do not show pseudopodia formation. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=IriéEtsuro en-aut-sei=Irié en-aut-mei=Etsuro kn-aut-name=入江悦郎 kn-aut-sei=入江 kn-aut-mei=悦郎 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部平木内科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4813 end-page=4820 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Studies on the Hematopoiesis of Chick Blastoderm Part 2.

The primitive erythroblasts on leaving the blood island at first performs the deformation movent by protruding and retracting actively large, irregular pseudopodia from all sides of the cell body, but with lapse in the culture time the number of protruding and retracting movements decrease and then shortening pseudopodia, finally ceases the movement of cell body completely. At this stage short rod-like mitochondria become slender, and as the cell body become smaller and reticulum grows coarser and nucleoles shrink, it is then transferred to a primitive proerythrocyte. The primitive proerythrocyte actively undergoes mitosis and as mitochondria gradually decrease in number, the cell becomes elliptical, the nucleus grows smaller, the reticulum grows like axle and nucleoles disappear, and it is finally transferred to a primitive erythrocyte. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=YamamotoShigeko en-aut-sei=Yamamoto en-aut-mei=Shigeko kn-aut-name=山本恵子 kn-aut-sei=山本 kn-aut-mei=恵子 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部平木内科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4805 end-page=4811 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Studies on the Hematopoiesis of Chick Blastoderm Part 1.

First of all, the primitive erythroblasts (Megaloblast, Sabin) have been found to possess giant nucleus with thin nuclear membrane, reticulum consisted of extremely fine fibers, nucleoles situated approximately in the center and of irregular round shape to be the darkest spot in the nucleus with a coarse network-like structure on the surface, and numerous short rod-like mitochondria arranged in parallel with the nuclear membrane. Secondly, the primitive proerythrocyted (erythroblast stage I, Sugiyama) have the nucleus with coarse but thick reticulum and with round or irregularly round small nucleoles showing deep or light colored spots on the surface. Mitochondria are arranged like a band and are variously shaped as J, U, V, or S, and most of them are situated around the nucleus and a portion of them in the outer layer. Finally, primitive erythrocytes (erythroblast stage II, Sugiyama) have the nucleus with thick axle-like reticulum but nucleoles are obliterated, showing no mitochondria. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=YamamotoShigeko en-aut-sei=Yamamoto en-aut-mei=Shigeko kn-aut-name=山本恵子 kn-aut-sei=山本 kn-aut-mei=恵子 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部平木内科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4793 end-page=4804 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Influences of the Sera of Hypoplastic Anemia and Banti's Disease on Rabbit Bone Marrow - by the bone-marrow tissue culture - Part 3.

Cortisone acts as to recover the lost erythropoiesis of the bone marrow of the rabbit injected with the serum of hypoplastic anemia. 2. Cortisone likewise possesses an action as to recover the lost erythropoietic function of the bone marrow of the rabbit injcted with the serum of Banti's disease. 3. In the case of (1) or (2) even when cortisone is loaded to the bone marrow culture in such a high does as to damage the bone marrow cells of normal rabbit, the erythropoiesis of the bone marrow has shown a tendency to recover. 4. In the case of the rabbit previously given ACTH injection and then successive injections of the serum of hypoplastic anemia. the peripheral blood picture shows hardly any anemia, and the erythropoiesis of the bone marrow is likewise not at all affected. 5. From these, it is clear that the stimulating action of ACTH or corisone on the bone-marrow erthropoiesis can counteract against the inhibitory action of anemia-inducing substances contained in the sera of these patients. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=OkuhashiAtsumu en-aut-sei=Okuhashi en-aut-mei=Atsumu kn-aut-name=奥橋褒 kn-aut-sei=奥橋 kn-aut-mei=褒 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部平木内科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4783 end-page=4791 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Influences of the Sera of Hypoplastic Anemia and Banti's Disease on Rabbit Bone Marrow - by the bone-marrow tissue culture - Part 2.

In the case loaded with ACTH, there is no significant difference from that of the control irrespective of the concentration at 5γ/cc, 100γ/cc, or 500γ/cc, indicating not any influence on the erythropoiesis of the bone marrow. 2. When cortisone is added at the concentration of 5γ/cc, 100γ/cc, or 500γ/cc, at the concentration of 5γ/cc erythropoiesis is slightly accelerated, and at 100γ/cc it is markedly accelerated, while at 500γ/cc the erythropoiesis is rather depressed. 3. In the case of cortisone injection at the dose of 1 mg/kg or 5 mg/kg successively for seven days the erythropoiesis of bone marrow is accelerated as in the case of its direct addition to the bone marrow culture, but the degree of the acceleration is higher than the loading case, especially marked in the injection of 5 mg/kg, but in the injection of 10 mg/kg cortisone the erythropoiesis is on the contrary markedly decreased. 4. In the case of injection of ACTH at the dose of 2mg/kg successively for seven days, the erythropoiesis of bone marrow is accelerated while in the injection of 10 mg/kg successively seven times it is on the contrary markedly reduced. 5. From these it is obvious that the injection of ACTH or cortisone in an appropriate amount accelerates erythropoiesis of bone marrow, while the injection in an excessive amount reduces the erythrocpoietic function. However, as it has been found that ACTH does not act directly upon the erythropoiesis of bone marrow, it is interpreted that in the case of ACTH injection the acceleration of erythropoiesis is due to the action of cortisone secreted secondarily. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=OkuhashiAtsumu en-aut-sei=Okuhashi en-aut-mei=Atsumu kn-aut-name=奥橋褒 kn-aut-sei=奥橋 kn-aut-mei=褒 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部平木内科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4769 end-page=4781 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Influences of the Sera of Hypoplastic Anemia and Banti's Disease on Rabbit Bone Marrow - by the bone-marrow tissue culture - Part 1.

In the case of a single injection, be it the serum of hypoplastic anemia or Banti's disease, no direct influence can be observed in the rabbit bone marrow. 2. In the case of successive injections with the serum of hypoplastic anemia both erythropoiesis and leucopoiesis are markedly decreased. 3. Even in the case of successive iujections with the serum of Banti's disease likewise both erythropoiesis and leucopoiesis are markedly decreased. 4. In the case injected with the serum obtained from ihe splenectomized patient with Banti's disease no influence on hematopoiesis of the bone marrow can be recogized. 5. After seven successive injections with either one of the sera, if the animals are left without any further treatment, the bone marrow functions at the recovery stage of anemia are back at the normal level. 6. Comparing the in vivo influences of both sera on the bone marrow, when injected successively, the injection of the serum from hypoplastic anemia mainly disturbs the production of bone marrow cells, while the injection of Banti's disease serum inhibits the production of bone marrow cells in some case while it hihibits the maturation of bone marrow cells in other. And the disturbance of the former on the bone-marrow parenchyma is stronger than that in the latter. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=OkuhashiAtsumu en-aut-sei=Okuhashi en-aut-mei=Atsumu kn-aut-name=奥橋褒 kn-aut-sei=奥橋 kn-aut-mei=褒 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部平木内科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4761 end-page=4768 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=A Study on the Mechanism of Chlorpromazine Action on the Brain kn-title=脳髄に於けるクロールプロマジン作用機序についての研究 第3編 C. P. 長期少量投与時に於ける犬脳の病理組織学的研究 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Ever since 1952 when Delay, Deniker and Heal first used chlorpromazine for various psychiatric patients, its clinical effect has come to be recognized. And as is wellknown it is now one of important drugs in the treatment of patients with mental illness. Believing that the clarification of the mechanism acting on the brain will still further the pathological study in endogenous psychoses, the author performed a series of experiments with dog, in which he studied clinical symptoms and side-effecects at the time of chlorpromazine administration and also carefully analyzed the results of histopathological findings on the brain for the purpose of elucidation of the mechanism of chlorpromazine acting on the brain. Namely, dogs were divided into two groups: the A-group given a large dose of chlorpromazine for a short period of time; and the B-group given a small does of chlorpromazine for a long time. 1. For the A-group, grown-up dogs and young dogs were selected to the total of nine dogs, and in order to give shockwise 43-133 mg/kg chlorpromazine was injected into the artery, vein or muscle. As the result the clinical stage can be divided into five stages: 1. somnolent stage; 2. lethargic stage; 3. paralytic stage; 4. dyspnea stage; and 5. agonal stage. All of them died within several days. It was revealed that various symptoms of motor disturbances were most apt to appear in the lethargid stage. Especially the young dog No.8 showed a marked torsion dystonia-like symptoms at this atage and these symptoms persisted thereafter. All of them were sacrificed by decapitation six hours after the injection, and removing and fixing the brains, histological specimens were prepared. 2. For the B-group two adult dogs were selected and 10 mg/kg chlorpromazine was injected every day intramuscularly. Although clinical symptoms could not be divided into different stages, there was a period when they became somnolent. There were decapitated 31 days after the start of experiment and tissue specimens were prepared in the same way as mentioned above. By comparing there clinical symptoms in dogs with those observed in hyman cases, the author studied the mechanism of chlorpromazine action in the brain. In the histopathologisal investigations specimens were stained with hematoxylin-eosin, azo-carmine, Nissl stain, myelin sheath stain, and fat stain (Sudan III). In the A-group changes changes appearing diffusely in the entire brain, the so-called acute changes, and those of nerve cells caused bue to the changes in blood vessels were recognized. Sites especially marked for such changes were in the corpus striatum, thalamus, putamen, globus pallidum, nucleus niger, nucleus ruber, corpus mammillaris, nucleus amygdae and a portion of cerebral cortex. In comparison of these changes with pathoanatomy of torsion dystonia in the literatures, the changes mentioned above seemed to substantiate torsion dxstonia-like symptoms. In the B-group their characteristic changes were chronic atrophy of nerve cells and demyelinating plaques in cortical medullary radiation. Moreover, these changes were found to appear selectively at a definite portion of the brain; and it is believed that these findings offer the clue for the acting mechanism of chlorpromazine in the hrain. Finally for the purpose of explaining summarily the acting mechanism of chlorpoomazine the author discussed first the sites of chlorpromazine action, its distribution in the brain, and then the acting mechanism of chlorpromazine reported in available literatures, and also made a comparison between the results obtained by other investigators and those in the present experiment as well as the correlation with clinical symptoms. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=ShimizuHidenori en-aut-sei=Shimizu en-aut-mei=Hidenori kn-aut-name=清水英詮 kn-aut-sei=清水 kn-aut-mei=英詮 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部神経精神医学教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4755 end-page=4760 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=脳髄に於けるクロールプロマジン作用機序についての研究 第2編 短期間大量クロールプロマジン投与に於ける犬脳の病理組織学的研究 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract= en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name= en-aut-sei= en-aut-mei= kn-aut-name=清水英詮 kn-aut-sei=清水 kn-aut-mei=英詮 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部神経精神医学教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4749 end-page=4754 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=脳髄に於けるクロールプロマジン作用機序についての研究 第1編 犬に於けるクロールプロマジン投与の臨床的研究 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract= en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name= en-aut-sei= en-aut-mei= kn-aut-name=清水英詮 kn-aut-sei=清水 kn-aut-mei=英詮 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部神経精神医学教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4739 end-page=4747 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Sero-Immunological Studies of the Filtrable Agent Isolated from Choriocarcinoma kn-title=海猽脳通過による悪性絨毛上皮腫濾過性病毒の分離実験 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=We sterilely homogenized the tumorous tissue of 3 choriocarcinomas confirmed by histological examination and made them emulsion by adding five times volumes of normal saline. After then it was centrifuged 3.000 r. p. m. for 5 minutes and each of these supernate were inoculated to 2 healthy guinea pigs which then were killed 2 weeks later by blood-loss. We autopsized them to take out sterilely their brain which then were made into 10% emulsion by adding normal saline. 0.2cc of these emulsion was inoculated to healthy guinea pigs which we called 2 nd generation. We successively incculated with same procedure. And also these guinea pigs were microscopically examined by H-E staining on their brains, lungs, livers and spleens. Regarding 1st case and 3rd case on the time of inoculation from fourth to fifth generation, and 2nd case frcm 5th to 6th generation the passage through Seitz E. K. filter was performed. The inoculation was continuously performed up to 22nd for 3rd case. The histological changes in the organs of guinea pigs were mainely found as the hyperplasia of septal cells and hypertrophies of septum, resulting in frequent narrowing or disappearing of alveolar cavities. There were present the infiltrations of lymphocytes and monocytes in septum. Around the vessels and bronchioles the hyperplasia of mesenchymal cells was revealed. The pathological findings shown above were indentical with interstitial pneumonia what we call virus pneumonia. There were present the hyperplasia of spider cells and infiltrations of monocytes and lymphocytes around the bile duct as liver concerned. Spleen showed the hyperplasia of reticulocytes in red marrow. All three cases were revealed to have histological changes even after the passage through Seitz filter and mede it possible to continue the successive inoculation. There was, however, found in 1st and 3rd cases the tendency of gradual withdrawal of histological changes. 2nd case, contrary to this, kept the almost same pictures after having passed through the filter. Using the brains of guinea pig proper for isolation of tumor filtrable agents and avoiding the infection from experimental room, we successfully isolated the filtrable agent from choriocarcinoma, and believe that this agent is choriotropic. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KubouchiSadayuki en-aut-sei=Kubouchi en-aut-mei=Sadayuki kn-aut-name=久保内貞行 kn-aut-sei=久保内 kn-aut-mei=貞行 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=FukaiJunichi en-aut-sei=Fukai en-aut-mei=Junichi kn-aut-name=深井潤一 kn-aut-sei=深井 kn-aut-mei=潤一 aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakeiTeruo en-aut-sei=Takei en-aut-mei=Teruo kn-aut-name=竹井輝雄 kn-aut-sei=竹井 kn-aut-mei=輝雄 aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部産科婦人科学教室 affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部産科婦人科学教室 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部産科婦人科学教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4729 end-page=4738 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Sero-Immunological Studies of the Filtrable Agent Isolated from Choriocarcinoma kn-title=悪性絨毛上皮腫より分離した濾過性病毒の免疫血清学的研究 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=While we successfully isolated a certain filtrable agent by inoculation to guinea pigs of emulsion of choriocarcinoma, in order to elucidate as to whether or not this agent is choriotropic, we performed the neutralization or cross-neutralization test with serum of choriocarcinoma patients or with filtrable agent from stomach cancer. For the neutralizaion test of filtrable agent isolated from guinea pigs, to which the successive inoculation of emulsion of tumor tissue of choriocarcinoma had been performed, with serum of choriocarcinoma patients, the emulsion of the lungs and brains of the guinea pigs of the seventh generation after having passed through Seitz E. K. filter were employed. In regard to cross-neutralization with filtrable agent isolated from guinea pigs which were successively inoculated, those of sixteenth generation after having passed through the filter were employed. A anti-choriocarcinoma-agent serum of rabbits we first obtained 2 cc of supernate of emulsion made from lungs and brains of guinea pigs of the twelvth to nineteenth generation each after having passed through Seitz E. K. filter, and then we obtained the serum from 2 rabbits 14 days after the last injection which had follwed 8 times injections previously performed into the auricular veins of rabbits with 10 days intervals. The filtrable agent of stomach cancer was obtained after having passed the brains of guinea pigs as usual procedure. The anti-stomach cancer filtrable agent serum of rabbits were obtained from serum of rabbit which were repeatedly injected intravenously by the emulsion of rabbits of seventeenth generation as with the case of choriocarcinoma. The following results summarily were obtained. In the neutralization test of choriocarcinoma filtrable agent with serum of choriocarcinoma patients the agent was almost perfectly neutralized, showing the value of ID(50)>10(-2.0). The neutralization with serum of the normal women contrarily showed ID(50)=10(-3.75). The former revealed the remarkably high value of neutralization body. The crossneutralization test with the filtrable agent isolated from human stomach cancer as the control experiment disclosed that the neutralization test of choriocarcinoma filtrable agent with serum of normal rabbits showed ID(50)=10(-5.0), and that those with anti-stomach cancer filtrable agent serum of rabbit showed ID(50)=10(-4.0), and also that the neutralization test of choriocarcinoma filtrable agent by anti-choriocarcinoma filtrable agent serum of rabbit revealed ID(50)=10(-2.0). From the result shown above it is highly understandable that the value of the neutralization test of choriocarcinoma filtrable agent by anti-serum of rabbit for choriocarcinoma agent is more striking compared with those by 2 other kind of anti-serum. The neutralization test of stomach cancer filtrable agent by anti-stomach cancer serum of rabbit, furthermore, disclosed ID(50)=10(-3.45) and that by anti-choriocarcinoma agent serum of rabbit showed ID(50)=10(-4.25) and also that by serum of normal rabbit was ID(50)=10(4.0) in value. Therefore, the establishment of the neutralization test apparently failed between the choriocarcinoma filtrable agent and stomach cancer agent. From the result shown above, we would like to conclude that the filtrable agent isolated from choriocarcinoma after passage through the brain of guinea pigs has the potentiality to neutralize and moreover is choriotropic in nature. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KubouchiSadayuki en-aut-sei=Kubouchi en-aut-mei=Sadayuki kn-aut-name=久保内貞行 kn-aut-sei=久保内 kn-aut-mei=貞行 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=FukaiJunichi en-aut-sei=Fukai en-aut-mei=Junichi kn-aut-name=深井潤一 kn-aut-sei=深井 kn-aut-mei=潤一 aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakeiTeruo en-aut-sei=Takei en-aut-mei=Teruo kn-aut-name=竹井輝雄 kn-aut-sei=竹井 kn-aut-mei=輝雄 aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部産科婦人科学教室 affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部産科婦人科学教室 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部産科婦人科学教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4713 end-page=4728 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Studies on Surgical Treatment of far Advanced Pulmonary Tuberculosis 3.

As to the direct operation results, lobectomy and segmental resection were accomplished most often and them came thoracoplasty, pneumonectomy and extrapleural pneumolysis in that order. For those with poor function, thoracoplasty and extrapleural pneumolysis were selected as the procedure of choice. The operative mortality rate was 4.4%. They were because of complications not directly related to functional impairment and could have been avoided by adequate supervision. Complications occurred in 20.4% of the cases, being more frequedcly than in milder cases. Particularly higher was the incidence when the pulmonary arterial mean pressure was above 20 mmHg and other values showed marked fall in function. Complications were observed most often in thoracoplasty, but this can mainly be attributed to the fact that cases of severest functional ruin were chosen for this procedure. The ventilation diminished following every surgical intervention, Generally in thoracoplasty and pneumonectomy a qualitative improvement was noted of ventilation and circulation, whereas in lobectomy and sagmental resection with no addidion of thoracoplasty an aggravation was noticed. This concerns, however, with the indication preceeing operation and does not help estimate the absolute value of each surgicai procedure. It is suggestive of the possibility that the pulmcnary function of patients with far advanced pulmonary tuberculosis can be improved by deliberate choice of indication and surgical procedure. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KamoNaruto en-aut-sei=Kamo en-aut-mei=Naruto kn-aut-name=加茂成人 kn-aut-sei=加茂 kn-aut-mei=成人 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=国立療養所山陽荘 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4703 end-page=4712 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Studies on Surgical Treatment of far Advanced Pulmonary Tuberculosis 2.

On the other hand, the cardiopulmonary function of the cases which developed complications was investigated to study the functional limit. Thus the following results were obtained. Values when a steady state was reached after pulmonary artery occlusion on the operative side were found in general to be stable in A and B groups, while in most cases of C, D and F groups cardiopulmonary function was markedly lowered. The modes of variation in pulmonary arterial meen pressure by the Occlusion test falls approximately into 4 types, the difference between type I and II being minimal and type III indicating distinct impairment as compared with type I and II. Minute care is required in selecting the method of operation in type III cases. Type IV consists of those with compensatory failure; total lung-resection of the side is contraindicated and other surgical procedures should be tried with extreme caution. A considerable correlation was noted in the % vital capacity of the opposite lung befor Occlusion and the type of pressure variation, and type III had the poorest result. Complications during and after operation were most often encountered in cases with % V. C. and % M. B. C. each below 60, % V. C. of the opposite side below 30%, pulmonary arterial mean pressure above 20 mmHg and SaO(2) below 60% by 10% low oxygen load. Their incidence was the highest in thoracoplsty, which could be prevented by a series of fractional operations. Pneumonectomy had the lowest incidence of complication. No complication occurred in caces the method of urgery was selected by analysis of pressures variation types after the pulmonary artery Occlusion. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KamoNaruto en-aut-sei=Kamo en-aut-mei=Naruto kn-aut-name=加茂成人 kn-aut-sei=加茂 kn-aut-mei=成人 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=国立療養所山陽荘 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4687 end-page=4702 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Studies on Surgical Treatment of far Advanced Pulmonary Tuberculosis 1. Results of Cardiopulmonary Function Tests kn-title=重症肺結核の外科療法に関する研究 第1編 心肺機能検査成績について en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Chemotherapy and surgical therapy have made such tremendous strides against pulmonary tuberculosis that it has been reduced to a disease which can be managed with much less difficulty than before. However, a group of severe cases which is very difficult to be cured or improved still remains, requiring prompt establishment of the approved treatment of choice from the social, economical and medical poinc of view. In an attempt to achieve better cure or improvement for these cases through surgical intervention, the author picked out the so-called surgical far advanced cases from them, and classified these into 7 types (A-G) from the X-Ray findings of lesions and other states of chest and took their cardiopulmonary function into consideration. The restlst are given below. In these so-called surgical for advanced cases ef pulmonary tuberculosis, marked functional impairment is noted both in ventilation and circulation, although differences exist more or less among them. The impairment is generally represented by the decrease of pnlmonary ventilation and increase of pulmonary arterial pressure. The degree of functional impairment corresponds to the extent of parenchymal damage of the lung and is also infuluenced remarkably by pleural callosity and surgical collapse therapy. The decline in vital capacity is closely related to the increase of pulmonary arterial mean pressure, which frequently exceeds 20 mmHg especially when the percent-vital capacity is below 60. The limit os functional compensation can be detected by loading the patient 10% low oxygen and in cases with oxygen saturation of peripheral arterial blood (Sao(2)) less than 60% there occurred right heart failure not infrequently. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KamoNaruto en-aut-sei=Kamo en-aut-mei=Naruto kn-aut-name=加茂成人 kn-aut-sei=加茂 kn-aut-mei=成人 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=国立療養所山陽荘 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4679 end-page=4685 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=The Influence of Amino Acid upon Cholinestrase Activity in the Brain Part 2.

Aspartic acid, γ-aminobutyric acid, asparagine, glutamic acid follows. To LCLA rabbits glutamine effects excellent and then asparagine, γ-aminobutyric acid, aspartic acid, glutamic acid. 4) If the density of adding amino acid solution is changed in glutamine and glutamic acid, they show a maximum straint at M/10. In glutamine it shows respectable straint even at M/200. 5) The influence of glutamine upon the ChE activity in the brain of LCLA rabbits showed straint even at M/100 and at M/200 it became equal with the level of normal rabbit brain. This is found to be almost the same value as the deficient value of amino nitrogen in LCLA rabbit brain. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=YamaguchiMichiya en-aut-sei=Yamaguchi en-aut-mei=Michiya kn-aut-name=山口廸哉 kn-aut-sei=山口 kn-aut-mei=廸哉 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部第1（陣内）外科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4671 end-page=4677 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=The Influence of Amino Acid upon Cholinestrase Activity in the Brain Part 1.

Actions of Some Autonomic Drugs kn-title=猫の胸管リンパに対する催リンパ物質の作用態度 第2報 二，三自律神経毒の作用について en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=The injection of 0.05-0.2 mg/kg adrenaline hydrochloride into the systemic vein of the cat at first retards the lymph flow from the thoracic duct transiently and then accelerates it. The degree of this acceleration is definitely weaker than that in the dog but it is rather close to that in the rabbit. The protein content in lymph is increased when the acceleration of lymph flow is less but it is reduced when the acceleration is greater. Judging from changes in arterial and portal blood pressures, the initial decrease in the lymph flow seems to be correlated to the temporary anemia occurring in the splanchnic area at the ascending stage of arterial blood pressure and the subsequent increase of the flow seems to be correlated to the congestion in the same area at the descending stage of arterial pressure. Since the increase of protein in lymph is preventable by the prior ligature of periportal lymphatics, the majority of protein rich lymph may originate from the liver. In the cat portal blood pressure is not decreased by adrenaline as in the rabbit but it is increased as in the dog. This seems in all probability to be due to the fact that the constrictor response of intrahepatic vessels to this drug is more like in the dog than in the rabbit. The acceleration in the rate of lymph flow coincides with the rise in portal pressure rather than with that in arterial pressure. The administration of 0.5-3 mg/kg nicotine tartrate likewise accelerates the thoracic lymph in the cat a little less than that in the dog but close to that in the rabbit. Following this acceleration, there has been observed some retardation. As for the changes in arterial pressure and portal and jugular venous pressures, with an exception of an initial temporary fall in the arterial pressure, in every respect all of them present the reactions similar to those observed in the case of adrenaline administration. The lymphagogic effect and rise in the portal pressure due to nicotine are reduced in the adrenalectomized cat. The administration of 0.5-2 mg/kg acetylcholine chloride on 0.1-2 mg/kg pilocarpine hydrochloride also accelerates the flow of highly proteinized thoracic lymph in the cat. This action is rather marked in the case of the latter drug Portal blood pressure has been elevated by either one of these drugs, but in the case of acetylcholine a rather marked fall can be observed preceding the elevation. It seems that the lymph rich in protein is mainly produced in the liver, and the other portion of the lymph is formed by the increased plasma filtration resulting from the temporary congestion occurring in other abdominal area including intestines. The administration of 4 mg/kg atropine sulfate inhibits the lymphagogic effect and cardiovascular effects of these two drugs to quite a marked extent; while adrenalectomy partially suppresses these effects. Generally cardiovascular responses what are believed to be associated with the lymphagogic effect of the drugs mentioned above in the cat resemble more closely to those in the dog rather than in the rabbit. The reason why lymphagogic effect in the cat is less than in the dog in spite of this seems to be due to a small capacity of tissue spaces where produced lymph is stored up until it is taken into lymphatic vessels. This can be readily understood even from the previously reported observations that the duration of the acceleration in lymph flow due to the obstruction of short period in hepatic vein or in portal vein is shorter in the cat than in the dog (Mitsufuji, Okayama-Igakkai-Zasshi, 71, 7II, 4113, 1959). Atropine in the cat inhibits the thoracic lymph flow just as in the case of the dog and rabbit, and decreases the protein content in lymph. This may be caused by the decrease in circulating blood volume in the portal vascular area. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MitsufujiYasuteru en-aut-sei=Mitsufuji en-aut-mei=Yasuteru kn-aut-name=光藤葆光 kn-aut-sei=光藤 kn-aut-mei=葆光 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部薬理学教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4649 end-page=4655 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Fundamental Studies on Bone-Marrow Tissue Culture Part 3.

Summarizing, the bone marrow functions of each one of short bones are higher, while those of long bone are lower with some exception. 2. Of the short bone group, the functions of the bone marrow in scapula and innominate bones are most active in an equal degree, followed by those of vertebra. 3.

With the lengthening of time after death the growth area, wandering velocity and carbon-particled phagocytosis tend to decrease, and as for the vital staining the average stainability is increased, indicating the fall in the cell functions. However, the density of cell distribution of human neutrophils in the growth zone is higher at 12 hoursf ater death than that immediately after death, but the growth index is also lower than that immediately after death. 2. As for the bone-marrow tissue culture according to the lengths of postmortem time, 120 hours after death in femur and 7 days in rabbits are the maximum limit permissible to enable the culture of the bone-marrow. 3.

Summarizing the cell proliferation in the bone-marrow tissue culture, in human the proliferation is high in the descending ordar of age 15, in the twenties, thirties, fifties, while in rabbits, it is high one, two and six months after birth followed by 5 days after birth; and below that is in the orber of one, two and three years old. 2. The wanderinh velocity coincides well with the rate of cell proliferation of both neutrophils and pseudoeosinophils, and in human it is great in the order of age 15, in the twenties, thirties, fifties, and seventies, while in rabbits it is greatest one and two months after birth, followed by 6 months, 5 days, one, two, and three years after birth. 3. The carboneparticle phagccytosis parallels with the cell proliferation and the wande ring velocity, and in human it decreases along with the advance in age, while in rabbits it is most active one, two and 6 months after birth, followed by 5 days, one, two and three years after birth. 4. As for the vital stainings the discoloration of stained granules is delayed in young age both in human and rabbits, and also the average stainability at the early stage of the culture shows a low value. Namely, in human at the age 15 the delay in the dircoloration is longest, and the discoloration occurs earlier along with the abvance in age as in the twenties, thirties, fifties, and seventies in ascending order. 5. From these results the functions of bone marrow in human is most active at the age of 15 years and it decreases along with the abvance in age, while in rabbits it is most active one to six months after birth, followed by 5 days after birth, and thereafter at one, two and three years the functions gradually decrcases. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MaédaAkira en-aut-sei=Maéda en-aut-mei=Akira kn-aut-name=前田昭 kn-aut-sei=前田 kn-aut-mei=昭 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部平木内科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4613 end-page=4627 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Studies on the Adrenal Cortical Function in Hypoplastic Anemia Part 3.

From these facts stated above, it is possible to assume that there is a decline in the adrenal cortical function in this disease. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KurozumiJiro en-aut-sei=Kurozumi en-aut-mei=Jiro kn-aut-name=黒住治郎 kn-aut-sei=黒住 kn-aut-mei=治郎 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部平木内科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4593 end-page=4612 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Studies on the Adrenal Cortical Function in Hypoplastic Anemia Part 2.

After the first injection there was no change in electrolytic metabolism of serum, just about the same as in the case of ratio Na/K, and it increased in successive injections. 2. The weight of adrenal gland showed no change after the first injection, and was inclined to lose a little during succescive injections. 3. The total ascorbic acid of adrenals decreased after the first injection, while in succesive injections, it increased by degrees remarkably. After the cessation of successive injection it became normal. 4. After the first injection lipid granules in adrenal cortex became finer and decreased in number in zona fasciculata. While in succesive injections they became grosser and moved to inner side and after stopping successive injections they became finer again and many of regenerated granules appeared in sight. 5. With the progress of injections zona glomerulosa of adrenal cortex became hypertrophic, transitional zone became broader, and cells of zona fasciculata became slightly atrophic or degenerated. 6. As the results of these findings above mentioned, the idea, that the first injection produces stress (alarm reaction); and in the initial stage of successive injections, stress (stage of resistance) can be observed; but this stage of resistance disappearing gradually, there ensues the stage of repression of adrenal cortical function; and after the cessation of injections hyperfunotional stage reappears, seems to be reasonable. And these changes are definitely caused by anemia producing factor in serum of patients with hypoplastic anemia. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KurozumiJiro en-aut-sei=Kurozumi en-aut-mei=Jiro kn-aut-name=黒住治郎 kn-aut-sei=黒住 kn-aut-mei=治郎 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部平木内科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4571 end-page=4591 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Studies on the Adrenal Cortical Function in Hypoplastic Anemia Part 1.

After the first injection there appeared a decrease in the number of circulating eosinophils, and while with successive injections once a day, 5 or 10 days, there occurred a similar decrease of eosinophils, but on stopping injections there appeared a remarkable increase of eosinophils. 2. The decrease in the number of circulating erythrocytes were observed in all cases, without any relation to the time of injections. This fact proved the existence of anemia producing factor in the sera of patients with hypoplastic anemia used in the present experiments. 3. After the first injection, a remarkable increase in the amount of free chemocorticoids (Ch. C.) excreted in the urine indicated that adrenal cortex was hyperfunctioned; with the progress of injections, of over 5 times, a gradual decrease of Ch. C. in the urine indicated that adrenal cortex was hypofunctioned. After stopping successive injections there occurred a remarkable increase of Ch. C. in the urine. 4. After the first injection there was no change in P(32) uptake into any organs. By successive injections an increase in P(32) uptake into hypophysis, bone marrow, liver and spleen can be observed. P(32) uptake into adrenals increased after the last injection, but it became normal 5 days after the cessation of injections. 5. Reserve function of adrenal ccrtex was maintained well even after the successive injections. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KurozumiJiro en-aut-sei=Kurozumi en-aut-mei=Jiro kn-aut-name=黒住治郎 kn-aut-sei=黒住 kn-aut-mei=治郎 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部平木内科教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4561 end-page=4569 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Morphological Studies on Human Ascites Tumor Cells by Tissue Culture Part 3.

The following are the results. 1) In the case loaded with colcemide a marked degeneration of cytoplasma and the abnormality in cell division can be recognized. 2) In the case loaded with carzinophilin the pyknosis and disintegration of the nucleus and cytoplasma can be observed. 3) In the case loaded with glucosamine the same as in (2), the pyknosis and disintegration of the nucleus and cytoplasma can be seen. 4) In the case of nitromine, the swelling and destruction of the nucleus and cytoplasma as well as the formation of bubbles can be recognized. 5) In the case loaded with unsaturated fatty acid extract of the roentgenized liver, the pyknosis and disintegration of the nucleus and the disintegration and swelling of cytoplasma, namely, the mechanism acting in two ways as carzinophilin and nitromine combined, can be recognized. As can be seen from above, it has been confirmed that the anticancerogenic mechanism of each of these drugs is characteristic respectively. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=AsakaTakakazu en-aut-sei=Asaka en-aut-mei=Takakazu kn-aut-name=浅香隆一 kn-aut-sei=浅香 kn-aut-mei=隆一 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学平木内科 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4551 end-page=4560 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Morphological Studies on Human Ascites Tumor Cells by Tissue Culture Part 2.

At the same time ground chick embryo tissue is cultured with this cellsuspension culture. Moreover, the medium is exchanged with fresh one every three days and the ground chick embryo tissue every six days. 2) By this culture method it has been possible to keep the cancer cells of ascites in gastric cancer alive for 21 days while tumor cells of coelothelioma for 18 days. 3) In the morphological observations: (1) In the case of cancer cells of gastric cancer ascites, cell division increases around third to fourth day of culture and numerous new small cells with clear cell body appear. On the other hand, about this time a portion of the cells become degenerated and are destroyed and within 4 or 5 days as a cyclic period the processes of cell degeneration and destruction and appearance of regenerated small cells are repeated. (2) Likewise in the tissue culture of coelothelioma cells, cell division occurs on around the third day of culture, and new small cells with clear cell-body make their appearance, revealing distinctly the transformation from serous cells. By the ninth day the cells gradually become disintegrated and are destroyed, and with lapse in culture time degenerated cells increase in number. As can be seen from above, it has been possible to obtain quite interesting findings in the day-to-day observations on morphological changes occurring in tumor cells under culture by the above method. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=AsakaTakakazu en-aut-sei=Asaka en-aut-mei=Takakazu kn-aut-name=浅香隆一 kn-aut-sei=浅香 kn-aut-mei=隆一 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学平木内科 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4527 end-page=4540 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Influences of Various Anti-carcinomatous Agents on the Tissue Respiration and the Glycolytic Action in Carcinoma of the Cervix kn-title=各種制癌剤の子宮腟部癌組織呼吸並びに解糖作用に及ぼす影響について en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=The author determined the tissue metabolism of 7 non-cancerous cervical tissues and 45 cancerous tissues of cervix which were taken from the in-patients admitted to Dept. of Obstetrics and Gynecology Okayama University Medical School, using Warburg manometer. The comparative studies were performed on its effects of x-ray (dosage from 900 to 1, 200 r and 3, 600 r) for the metabolism of 15 cancerous tissue and moreover, their effects of the various anti-carcinomatous agents for the tissue metabolism of 5 cancers each. These agents consisted of Nitromin 200 mg i. v., 15 cc of thymus extract hypodermic, Carzinophilin 15, 000 to 60, 000 u. and 75, 000 u. i.v., the combined administration of Carzinophilin 15, 000 to 60, 000 u. into the tumorous tissues and 35, 000 to 40, 000 u. i. v., and also Mitomyoin 16 mg i. v. The following results were obtained; 1) Whereas the non-cancerous tissues were comparatively higher in value of respiration rate, the glycolytic activity was low. 2) The cancerous tissues showed the slightly higher value of respiration rate and strikingly elevated in both aerobic and anaerobic glycolytic activity in comparison with noncancerous tissues. 3) The effects of x-ray on the tissue metabolism of carcinoma of the cervix were obtained as follows; i) The respiration activity was inhibited to various degree by x-ray irradiation, dosage ranging from 900 to 1, 200 r. and 3.600 r. ii) The glycolytic activity was inhibited by irradiation of 3, 600r. in all cases, on the other hand it was inhibited in most cases by irradiation of 900 r. to 1, 200 r., though some cases of them were elevated slightly and some not changed. Therfore, in the case of 900 r. to 1, 200 r., there was no decisive tendency. 4) The following tendencies were revealed concerning the effects of various anti-carcinomatous agents on the tissue metabolism of carcinoma of the cervix. i) In the administration of Nitromin 200 mg i. v., 15 cc of Thymus extrach h. d., Carzinophilin 25, 000 u, to 45, 000 u. i. v., the respiration activity was elevated to various degree, whereas in the adminisiration of Carzinophilin 75, 0000 u. i. v., the combined administration of its 15, 000 u. i. to 60, 000 u. into tumorous and its 35, 000 u. to 40, 000 u. i. and Mitomycin 16 mg i. v., the respiration activity was to various degree inhibited. ii) In the all cases the glycolytic activity was variously inhibited. 5) The various anti-carcinomatous agents had the similar effects on carcinoma of the cervix with the x-ray irradiation of dosage 3, 500 r. in the viewpoint of inhibition of the glycolytic activity. 6) In spite of beeing of their defferent actions on cancerous tissue, it appears to be believable that by the effects stated above, the metabolic activity characteristic for cancer tissue is inhibited and approach to the normal metabolic activity, resulting in inhibition of reproduction of cancer tissue, and in the cure. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=OharaTuguo en-aut-sei=Ohara en-aut-mei=Tuguo kn-aut-name=大原二男 kn-aut-sei=大原 kn-aut-mei=二男 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部産科婦人科学教室 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=8-1 article-no= start-page=4515 end-page=4526 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1959 dt-pub=19590810 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Interrelation between pH of media and Bacterial Growth kn-title=培養基のpHと細菌発育について en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=By mean of the glass electrode, the author investigated the buffer capacity of nutrient broth and peptone water, that were generally using in bacterial culture, and also studied the effects off buffer substance that gave rise of the buffer capacity when it was added to the media. Moreover, using the media obtained above, the author conduted the investigation of some change in the media by the preparation procedurs and of bacterial growth in it. The following results were obtained. 1) The buffer capacities of nutrient broth and peptone water were seemed to be depended upon the over-all action of substances contained in the media. However, the buffer capacity of each media could be depicted by entirely different curve at about pH 7.0; the curve for nutrient broth showed single peak at pH 7.0, while that for peptone water showed at pH 7.0 and rises either sides of this caving. 2) By the addition of phosphate buffer to peptone water, the peak was appeared around pH 7.0 on the buffer capacity cuve. The capacity curve obtained in this was resembled that obtained in composition from that of peptone water and phosphate buffer solution. 3) The pH deviation by sterilization was noticed in greater extent in nutrient broth than in peptone water, and less deviation of pH was observed in the media of which pH was adjusted by NaOH in comparison with the same media adjusted by Na(2)CO(3). There was no longer deviation of pH by the addition of phosphate buffer to the media in the concentration about M/100. 4) On any culture of E. coli communis, A. aerogenes and Sal. 57 S in peptone water to that phosphate buffer was added, the less deviation of pH of the media and much bacterial growth were observed compaired with the control. These evidences were also noticed more clearly on the culture of same organisms that were grown in the glucose added media. 5) The pH of the glucose added peptone water was decreased by the culture of E. coli communis or Sal. 57 S in the media and this condition turned out eventual standatill of the growth. However, by the adjustment of pH of the media to the same range as before, it was observed the growth of the organism recovered well in comparison with the control. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=TanakaTanenori en-aut-sei=Tanaka en-aut-mei=Tanenori kn-aut-name=田中種徳 kn-aut-sei=田中 kn-aut-mei=種徳 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部微生物学教室 END
