Gangliosides and phospholipids of the membranes from bovine adrenal medullary chromaffin granules.

The lipid and ganglioside compositions of membranes of chromaffin granules isolated from bovine adrenal medulla have been investigated. The detailed lipid analysis revealed the presence of high levels of lysophosphatidylcholine, in agreement with previous studies, but also of sphingomyelin and plasmalogens. From these membranes, gangliosides have been extracted and separated by thin-layer chromatography and analysed. 95% of the total recovered gangliosides were hematosides (GM3), which migrated as three major species. Sugar analyses have been performed, as well as the fatty acid compositions. The three hematoside gangliosides appeared to differ on the basis of their fatty acid composition. Compared with the brain, chromaffin granule membranes showed a simple ganglioside composition, thus offering a good model for the study of the metabolism and the role of gangliosides. The simple ganglioside composition of chromaffin granule membranes has allowed us to state that there are 60 mol phospholipid and 30 mol cholesterol per mol ganglioside.

Repair of a high esophageal stenosis with a mucosal flap of a Zenker's diverticle.

A patient presented an esophageal stenosis due to lasertherapy by Dohlmann's technique for the treatment of a Zenker's diverticle. This esophageal stenosis has been repaired by taking a mucosal flap out of the Zenker's diverticle. The technique is presented in this paper, together with some analogue data from literature.

[Renal autotransplantation].

The progress of renal transplantation in the last 2 decades has made possible the development of autotransplantation and extracorporeal surgery of the kidney. By those techniques, it is possible to operate upon patients in which conservative conventional surgery is impossible. In this article the technique is described, and two typical cases are reported. The mean indications are renal vascular hypertension, malignant tumors of the kidney, traumatic lesions of the kidney and ureteral lesions. All these indications are described in detail.
