[Subcutaneous grafts of fresh or cryopreserved testis in castrated rats and mice: comparison of the histologic aspects of the grafts].

In the castrated rat, only testis taken in one to two week-old donors observed three months after sub-cutaneous isograft contain a well developed interstitial tissue and some seminiferous tubules with germinal cells. On the contrary in castrated mice, testicular grafts taken in adult animals show some Leydig cells and degenerating seminiferous tubules. These grafts permit the restoration of androgenic activity in previously castrated recipients.

[Effect of an acidic sulfated polysaccharide on whole blood coagulability. In vivo study in rats].

Armatan, an acid sulphated polysaccharide isolated from a red marine seaweed Asparagopsis armata (Harv.), increases the coagulation time of the rat plasma in vivo assays. This property presents, with administration, time and dose, some variations. Among the three ways studied, subcutaneous injection gives more interesting results than the others. At high concentrations (10, 20 and 50 mg/kg), intravenous administration induces plasma and organic (liver-spleen) diseases.

[Characteristics of the action of an acidic sulfated polysaccharide on global blood coagulation in vitro. Preliminary study in various species of mammals and in man].

An acid sulphated polysaccharide, isolated from a red marine seaweed, Asparagopsis armata ( Harv .), increases the coagulation time of the plasma in vitro studies. This property, compared with the anticoagulant activity of pentosan polysulphate and heparin, pr esents , with concentration and temperature, some variations in man and other mammals . The rat and human plasma seem to behave in the same way with this substance.

[In vitro effects of preovulatory human follicular liquid on migration of human spermatozoa].

In vitro measurements of spermatozoa migration in different media showed a 75% increase in the number of spermatozoa migrating into preovulatory human follicular fluid versus Menezo's fluid. However after 4 h storage in either medium, total and progressive motility of the spermatozoa was lower in follicular fluid than in Menezo's fluid. A positive correlation was evident between the spermatozoa migration in follicular fluid and the concentration or motility of spermatozoa in fresh sperm.

[Cells with phosphatase activity in the walls of subcutaneous capillaries from normal and inflamed rat tissue].

In the wall of rat's capillary blood vessels the adenosine triphosphatase is located on the endothelium, the 5'nucleotidase on the perithelial cells. The perithelial cells activities are strong during the inflammatory state, but at the beginning of the phenomenon the nucleotidasic cells become free into the oedematous tissue by preceding and accompagning the fibroblastic differenciation cells.

[Appearance of phosphatase reticular cells in the spleen parenchyme of normal and tumor-bearing mice].

The splenic mouse parenchyma presents 3 reticular cells types revealed by histo-enzymatic technics: the phagocytic cells show a strong phosphatasic acid activity, the endothelial cells possess a phosphatasic alcalin or adenosine-triphosphatasic reaction, the perithelial cells are 5' nucleotidasic. These different cells are distributed by forming specific topographic structures in the splenic tissue. The phosphatasic alcalin reticular cells seem to be, with their distribution, characteristic elements of mouse spleen. Indeed the modifications in tumoral animal interest chiefly this cell category. In this case, the reticular cells form a deep and large membrane between marginal zone and perivascular lymphoid sheath of the white pulp. These different reticular cells probably react for the defense system of the animal.

[The effect of cortisone on lympho-reticular cells with specific enzyme activity of the white pulp of rat spleen].

By its destructive effect on the small lymphocyte, cortisone was used to separate the T-lymphocyte from other cells which might be found in the same areas. A reticular cell showing a predominant 5' nucleotidasic activity distinct from that of the phosphatasic acid appeared to be a component of the thymus-dependent areas in the splenic white pulp of Rat. Specific correlations seem to exist between this reticular cell and T-lymphocytes. This histoenzymatic feature involves the reticular cell in the process of maturation of the small lymphocyte.

[Comparison of topographical locations of reticular cells with 5'-nucleotidase activity in spleen white pulp and lymph nodes in man and rat].

The cells connections occuring in thymus-dependent areas of the splenic white pulp of rat between 5'nucleotidasic reticular cells and small lymphocytes allowed to research this same associated cells in the rat lymph node and the human splenic white pulp and lymph node. The locations of the thymus- dependent areas seem different in man and rat.
