    Notes: Summary Although a transitory maternal zinc deficiency has been shown to result in an increased cadmium-induced fetotoxicity, the results of the present investigation indicated that a maternal zinc deficiency apparently did not affect the placental transfer of cadmium. However, a zinc deficiency did alter the maternal distribution of cadmium. The increased cadmium fetotoxicity associated with a maternal zinc deficiency may be caused by a maternal alteration rather than a direct effect on the fetus. Further study is necessary prior to any definitive statement concerning the effects of a maternal zinc deficiency on cadmium. fetotoxicity.

    Notes: Summary This investigation has shown that not only the extent of fetal resorption and malformation but also the types of malformation seen in rats depend upon the strain used and day of gestation. Furthermore, the effects of zinc deficiency and cadmium administration on the fetus can be at least additive, as was seen for malformations. For fetal resorption, zinc deficiency potentiated the action of cadmium.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Ein Radioimmunoassay für Angiotensin I und seine Anwendung für die Messung der Reninkonzentration im Plasma werden beschrieben. Die zur Herstellung von Angiotensinantikörpern und radioaktiv markiertem Angiotensin sowie zur Trennung von gebundenem und freiem Hormon benutzten Verfahren werden mitgeteilt. Die Empfindlichkeit der Methode erlaubt den Nachweis von zwanzig Pikogramm Angiotensin I. Zur Messung der Reninkonzentration wurde substratfreies Plasma mit Schafsubstrat im Überschuß versetzt und in Anwesenheit von Inhibitoren von „converting enzyme“ und Angiotensinasen bei 37°C inkubiert. Das gebildete Angiotensin wurde in 20 µl des proteinfreien Inkubationsgemisches bestimmt. Die initiale Geschwindigkeit der Angiotensinbildung wurde zur Berechnung der Reninkonzentration herangezogen. Als eine Einheit wurde die Reninmenge definiert, die ein Nanogramm Angiotensin I pro Stunde Inkubation bildet. Normalwerte unter kontrollierter natriumreicher und natriumarmer Diät wurden ermittelt. Die Empfindlichkeit der Methode erlaubt die Messung der Reninkonzentration im Plasma von Patienten mit primärem Aldosteronismus.
    Notes: Summary A radioimmunoassay for angiotensin I and its application to the measurement of plasma renin concentration are described. Outlined are the methods which were used to elicite antibodies against angiotensin I, to iodinate angiotensin I with iodine125, and to separate free from antibody-bound hormone. The method is sensitive enough to detect 20 picogrammes of angiotensin I. Substrate-free plasma was mixed with excess of sheep substrate. The mixture was incubated at 37°C in the presence of inhibitors of converting enzyme and angiotensinases. The generated angiotensin I was measured in 20 µl of the protein-free incubation mixture. The initial velocity of angiotensin generation was used to calculate the renin concentration. One unit was defined as the amount of renin which generates one nanogram of angiotensin per hour. Normal values of plasma renin concentration were obtained both during sodium loading and sodium depletion. The sensitivity of the method allows the measurement of plasma renin in patients with primary aldosteronism.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Bei 13 Patienten mit einem primären Hyperaldosteronismus wurde die Plasma-Renin-Konzentration unter Stimulations- und unter Suppressionsbedingungen gemessen. Eine hochempfindliche Methode zur Reninmessung, die sich eines Radioimmunoassays für Angiotensin I bediente, wurde verwandt. Bei jedem der Patienten ließ sich die Reninkonzentration im Plasma gut messen. Die Werte lagen hochsignifikant unter den Normbereichen, die unter denselben Bedingungen ermittelt worden waren. Am eindrücklichsten war der Unterschied zwischen normalen und pathologischen Werten unter Stimulationsbedingungen. Nach Kochsalzentzug stieg die Reninkonzentration zwar bei nahezu allen Patienten signifikant an, der Anstieg war jedoch subnormal, gemessen an dem gesunden Kontrollkollektiv. Renin ist auch beim primären Aldosteronismus im Plasma vorhanden und reagiert auf Stimulation qualitativ regelrecht, quantitativ jedoch subnormal.
    Notes: Summary Plasma renin concentration (PRC) was measured in thirteen patients with primary aldosteronism during high and low sodium intake. A highly sensitive method using a radioimmunoassay for angiotensin I was applied for the determinations of PRC. PRC was detectable in each patient. The values obtained were significantly lower than the normal ranges which were assessed under the same conditions. Most impressive was the difference between normal and pathological values during sodium deprivation. PRC rose in almost each patient after several days of dietary sodium restriction. The increase was subnormal, however, when compared with normal controls. Renin is present in plasma of patients with primary aldosteronism. It responds qualitatively normally, but quantitatively subnormally when stimulated by sodium deprivation.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Percutaneous transluminal dilatation of a left sided renal artery stenosis was performed in a 61 year old patient with hypertension. Biochemical and hemodynamic activity of the renal artery stenosis was demonstrated by measurement of renal venous renin-activity and determination of renal plasma flow and of pre- and poststenotic blood pressure values. Shortly after the dilatation procedure hypertension disappeared and renal plasma flow increased. The described procedure might be an alternative method to renal vascular surgery.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Bei einem 61jährigen Patienten mit renovasculärer Hypertonie bei linksseitiger arteriosklerotischer Nierenarterienstenose wurde eine perkutane transluminale Dilatation der Stenose vorgenommen. Die biochemische und hämodynamische Aktivität der Nierenarterienstenose wurde durch Messung der Plasmareninaktivität im Nierenvenenblut, Bestimmung des renalen Plasmaflusses und der prä- und poststenotischen Blutdruckwerte in der Nierenarterie belegt. Kurz nach der Dilatation der Stenose normalisierte sich der Blutdruck, und es kam zu einem Anstieg des renalen Plasmaflusses. Weitere Untersuchungen werden zeigen, ob die beschriebene Methode eine Alternative zur operativen Korrektur der Nierenarterienstenose bietet.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary In three patients with diabetes and hyporeninemic hypoaldosteronism changes in renin activity, plasma aldosterone and cortisol were examined under various conditions: orthostasis and intravenous furosemide, infusion of synthetic β1–24 ACTH on two consecutive days and diurnal variations in basal hormone fluctuations. Each patient showed unmeasurably low renin activity unresponsive to orthostasis and intravenous furosemide while plasma aldosterone was below normal range. Under ACTH-infusion only marked increases in aldosterone were observed in one patient whereas cortisol responded normally in all diabetics tested. Analysis of diurnal night day fluctuations (20.00–8.00) in plasma aldosterone and cortisol revealed a close and statistically significant relationship between both hormones in each of the three patients (p〈0.05–〈0.001). Variations in plasma aldosterone thus were mediated through changes in endogenous pituitary ACTH. Compared with normal controls however, diurnal aldosterone curves were set at a lower level. Our results demonstrate that a reduced sensitivity of the adrenal gland to ACTH is not responsible for the observed subnormal plasma aldosterone levels in these patients. Therefore, the lack of circulating angiotensin II seems to be the causative reason of hypoaldosteronism. The exact mechanism of undetectable renin activity in these patients remains unknown.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Bei drei Patienten mit Diabetes mellitus und hyporeninämischem Hypoaldosteronismus wurden Veränderungen der Plasmareninaktivität, des Plasmaaldosteron- und Plasmacortisolspiegels unter folgenden Bedingungen geprüft: Orthostase und intravenöse Furosemidapplikation, Infusion von synthetischem β1–24 ACTH an zwei aufeinanderfolgenden Tagen, Tag-Nacht-Rhythmus der basalen Hormonplasmaspiegel. Alle Patienten zeigten eine nicht meßbare und durch Orthostase und Furosemid nicht stimulierbare Reninaktivität. Gleichzeitig wurden subnormale Aldosteronplasmakonzentrationen gemessen. Unter ACTH-Infusion zeigte nur ein Patient einen deutlichen Anstieg des Plasmaaldosterons, während das Plasmacortisol in allen drei Fällen normal stimulierbar war. Die statistische Analyse der Tag-Nacht-Schwankungen von Plasmaaldosteron und Plasmacortisol zeigte in jedem der Fälle eine enge und statistisch signifikante Beziehung zwischen beiden Hormonen (p〈0,05–〈0,001). Es ist somit anzunehmen, daß Schwankungen des Plasmaaldosterons durch Veränderungen der hypophysären ACTH-Ausschüttung verursacht wurden. Jedoch war im Vergleich zu Normalpersonen die Rhythmik des basalen Plasmaaldosterons auf einem tieferen Niveau eingestellt. Unsere Ergebnisse lassen den Schluß zu, daß bei diesen Patienten nicht eine verminderte Sensitivität der Nebennierenrinde auf ACTH für die beobachteten subnormalen Aldosteronspiegel verantwortlich ist. Ursache für den Hypoaldosteronismus scheint somit der Mangel an zirkulierendem Angiotensin II zu sein. Der genaue Mechanismus der nicht meßbaren Reninaktivität bei diesem Patienten bleibt unbekannt.

    Notes: Summary In microperfusion experiments the reabsorption of14C-labelledl-cystine,l-cysteine, andl-arginine from rat proximal tubule was measured, and the transport interaction of these amino acids and some derivatives was tested. The following results were obtained: 1. l-arginine,l-lysine, andl-cysteine inhibitedl-cystine reabsorption. 2. Glycine, agmantine, and 2,6-diaminopimelic acid showed no influence onl-cystine reabsorption. 3. l-cysteine reabsorption was inhibited byl-arginine, but not by glycine. 4. l-cysteine and 2,6-diaminopimelic acid were unable to influence reabsorption ofl-arginine. From these results and some observations reported in the literature, the following concept is put forward for discussion.l-arginine,l-lysine andl-ornithine may be reabsorbed by two separate mechanisms in the proximal tubule.l-cystine may use only one of these ways. Here, it is possible thatl-cystine is transported asl-cysteine. This concept may find relevance in the explanation of the pathogenesis of cystinuria.

    Notes: Abstract Concentration factors (CF) of 54Mn for three aquatic species: green algae (Protococcoidal chlorella), Daphnia magna, and fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) were determined following direct exposure to the isotope in solution. The maximum accumulation (CF = 911) in P. chlorella was reached at 48 hours of exposure; the maximum uptake (CF = 65) in Daphnia was reached at 8 hours of exposure; and the maximum accumulation (CF = 22.6) in fathead minnows was at 128 hours of exposure. The data indicate that 54Mn accumulation decreases with ascent up a theoretical aquatic food chain when water is the only source of contamination.

    Notes: Summary Applying the indirect fluorescent antibody technique to the infective stages of the hookwormAncylostoma caninum, it appeared that they do not show IgG antibody binding when serum from dogs infected withA. caninum was used in the test (antiserum). However, inhibiting these stages metabolically with azide or with low temperatures, IgG antibody binding to the outer surface was observed. When the inhibitory factors were removed, shedding of fluorescent substances was seen, which were obviously coming from the outer surface of the larvae. This suggests that shedding of the antigen might occur.

    Notes: Summary The Indirect Fluorescent Antibody Technique (IFAT) and the Indirect Immuno Peroxidase Technique (IIPT) have been applied to cryostat sections and intact stages of the hookworm speciesAncylostoma caninum with sera from infected dogs. Especially the role of the body surface (=cuticle (cortex, matrix, basal layer) and hypodermis) in immunity was studied. Using cryostat sections and dead intact stages as the antigen, specific antibody binding was demonstrated round the ovum membrane and the cuticle of all stages of this hookworm species. Cryostat sections of adult worms showed, that it probably is not the cuticle itself that is antigenic, but that the specific reaction that is observed consisted of a layer, covering the cortex of the cuticle. Infective and parasitic living stages, however, showed no antibody binding in contrast to the free-living stages in which specific antibody binding was demonstrated.
