1.SCANNING ELECTRONMICROSCOPIC STUDIES ON LA NGERHANS ISLET OF RATS
Acta Anatomica Sinica 1955;0(03):-
The Pancreatic islets of rats were demonstrated after perfusion with Kanovski- Dithizon by Scanning electronmicroscopy. The results are summed up as follows: Pancreatic islets are closely surrounded by a proper membrane formed by two layers of reticular and collagenous fiber nets. B-cells are polygonal and average 10 ?m in diameter. The surfaces of B-cell are characterized by cytoplasmic projections and blebs, while those of A-cell have few characteristics, A-cells show a momopolar and B-cells a polypolar type of secretions, The inner surfaces of B-cells are characterized by "secretion canaliculus" (insulin canaliculus) and "secretion pore". The secretions canaliculus and secretions pores are the passage through which the secretion Passes into the calpillary net or sinus of the islets.

68 NIH Mice (24-25g) were divided into three groups. Group A was normal control, group B was treated with 54% alcohol in the beverages 0.25ml/per day, and group C was administrated 54% alcohol mixed with folic acid 0.25ml/per day. The histochemical reaction and ultrastructural changes in liver were observed. The reaction of glycogen (PAS reaction), Mg-ATPase SDH LDH G-6-Pasc and ACP was demonstrated respectively by Chayen's, Wachstein-Meisel, Lojda, Bancroft's method, and some procedures of these techniques were modified. The results showed that under the protection effect of acid folic, the regularities seemed to be present in the changes of the following histochemical reactions in the liver cells of the group C (treaded by acid folic) the PAS reaction and the activities of Mg-ATPase SDH LDH G-6-Pase were similar to the group A and apparently higher than that in group B. The activities of ACP were lower those in group B(P

In the present study, 10 healthy adult dogs were used,8 for the experimental group and 2 for the normal group. We observed the histochemical and ultrastrac- tural changes of the enzymes in the pyramidal cells in the cerebral cortex under the condition of acute ischemia. The result demonstrated that the activity of LDH, AcP and AchE was increased, while the activity of SDH, MAO, ATP ase was decreased. The ultrastructural chnges showed that in the acute ischemia gromp, there were enlargement perinucleus spaces of neurone, brisement, disappearance and vasicularization of the mitochondrial crista. This indicated that acute ischemia had an obvious effect on the histochcmistry of enzymes and the ultra- structure of the neurone in the cerebral cortex.

The protective effect of vitamin E and the change in activity of enzymes at hepatic injury by carbon tetrachloride(CCl_4) were studied with histochcmical methods. 60 rats were devided into three groups(A,B,C). The group A was untreated control; the animals of group B and C were injected(i. m.) with 0.9% NaCl 1 ml/100g or vitamin E 1 ml/100g body weight qd for 7 days respectively and then treated with 30% CCl_4 0.05ml/l00g by adding to the solution of NaCl or vitamin E from 8th to 14th days. On the 15th day, rats were sacrificed for histochemical study of the liver parenchyma. The results showed that the activity of SDH, G-6-Pase, ATPase, 5-NT or AcP in liver lobules of groups B and C animals were changed conspicuously after treatment with CCl_4. The quantitative histochemistry of SDH and G-6-Pase was also consistent with these results. The activity of SDH, G-6-Pase, ATPase and 5-NT were inhibited, but of AcP was elevated. As compared with those in the rats of group A, the changes however in group B appeared more obviously than those in group C. The results indicated that CCl_4 of the given dose induced acute damage in liver cells, while vitamin E had important protective effect against acute liver damag induced by CCl_4.
