  • Pigmented villonodular synovitis, synovial chondromatosis, long-standing rheumatoid arthritis, hemophilic arthropathy, chronic tophaceous gout, amyloid arthropathy, tuberculous arthritis, and hemangioma are the synovial diseases showing low signal intensity on T2-weighted image. Synovial deposition of hemosiderin, urate, and amyloid and fibrosis or caseous necrosis of hypertrophied synovium are known as the pathologic causes of T2 signal intensity. Because of the low incidence of the synovial lesions showing T2 low signal intensity, recognition of these diseases would be helpful for the exact diagnosis.

  • To monitor the reproductive patterns of endangered common chimpanzee including annual reproductive cycle, amenorrhea, breeding season, and pregnancy diagnosis, Time-Resolved Fluorescence Immuno Assay (TR-FIA) was used to trace MRH (estradiol, progesterone, testosterone) and human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG). In result of this research, age was not the important factor in determining the reproduction capability in common chimpanzee; it was rather greatly influenced by the combination of various factors such as individual's fertilizing ability, presence of obstetrical diseases, the pattern of mating behavior, and the mental communication under the introduction of a mating partner. This research will play an important role in operating conservation project for common chimpanzees and can be extended also for shedding new light on understanding human menopause and obstetrical diseases.

  • Primary choriocarcinoma of the lung is extremely rare and have been reported ten and several cases only in the literature. It is very difficult to confirm the "Pure primary pulmonary choriocarcinoma" clinically, so most cases that have been reported in the literature confirmed by autopsy and the prognosis is relatively poor compared with metastases. We experience one case of the primary pulmonary choriocarcinoma. She was 53 year old multiparous woman[4 \ulcorner0 \ulcorner2 \ulcorner0] who complain right chest pain for 4 years. On plain film and computerized tomogram of the thorax at admission, 2.5cmx3.5cmx5 cm sized, well demarcated ovoid mass was founded on the right middle lobe just below the parietal pleura and growing rapidly on plain film to 5cm x 6.5cm x 7cm after 15 days. We confirm the choriocarcinoma in the lung by percutaneous needle aspiration biopsy and strongly suspect primary after various examination for rule out metastases from the ovary or uterus. We perform middle lobe lobectomy because that can not confirm the primary or the metastases because there are not complete histological examination by bilateral ovariectomy and hysterectomy, and under the belief that extragestational or extragonadal primary choriocarcinoma is more resistant to the chemotherapy, and could be reduce the duration of hospitalization and the amount of chemotherapy used to achieve remission On 14th postoperative day, serum p-HCG level was returned to normal limit, and perform chemotherapy two times on 3rd and 5th week for prevention surgical traumatic hematogenous metastases or undetected microfocus, but the patient expire on 68th postoperative day due to intracerebral hemorrhage in the intracranial choriocarcinoma which strongly suspected surgical traumatic hematogenous metastases.etastases.

  • The anatomy and ultrastructure of the digestive diverticulum of Saxidomus purpuratus were described using light and electron microscopy. The digestive diverticulum of dark green color was situated on the gonad and connected to stomach by a primary duct. Digestive diverticulum is composed of numerous digestive tubules. The epithelial layer of digestive tubule, which is simple, is composed of basophilic cells and digestive cells. Basophilic cells are columnar in shape, and the electron density is higher than that of the digestive cell. The cytoplasm has a well-developed endoplasmic reticulum, tubular mitochondria, Golgi complex and membrane-bounded granules of high electron density. Digestive cells are columnar in shape, with development of microvilli on the free surface. Pinocytic vasicles, lysosomes and numerous mitochondria were observed in the apical cytoplasm of digestive cells. The results of this study suggest that basophilic cells and digestive cells in the digestive tubule are specialized in the extracellular and intracellular digestions, respectively.

  • The eyes of Nilaparvata lugens were examined for ultrastructural changes in the light and dark adapted states. Inspection of light microscope sections taken at similar levels of compound eyes from insects kept in light or darkness for periods up to 72 hors revealed some differences between light and dark adapted eyes. Using the electronmicroscope, in light adapted eyes the palisade layer was narrower than that in dark adapted eyes. The pigment granules still formed a ring around the palisade layer in the dark adapted eye but, they did not form a tight circle around the rhabdom. No constant difference was found between the diameters of the microvilli in light and dark adapted eyes. The pigment movements at the junction of the cone and the rhabdom took the effect on varying the pigment aperture at the tip of the cone in front of the rhabdom tip.

  • The occurrence of PVNS in the TMJ is very rare. We report a case of PVNS which was misdiagnosed as a parotid tumor at first. CT and conventional radiograph revealed a well defined mass demonstrating higher attenuation than adjacent soft tissue. Erosion and expansion of the cortical plate of the mandibular condyle and sclerotic change beneath the margin of the lesion were also shown. MRI demonstrated well defined mass of very low signal intensity on both Tl and T2-weighted images due to ferromagnetic effect of the high concentrated hemosiderin and clearly delineated the extent of the lesion. Histopathologic findings and characteristic appearance of the various imaging methods were described and the usefulness of these images for diagnosis and pretreatment evaluation of PVNS were also discussed.

  • The migut epitheluim of the last instar larva in the mosquito larvae, Anopheles sinensis was observed with electron microscopes. The midgut epitheluim of the mosquito larva is composed of a single-layered columnar absorptive cells, regenerative cells and secretory granular cells. The free surface of the columnar absorptive cells has a regular array of microvilli 'brush border', while cell membranes close to the basal lamina are extrmely infolded and a lot of mitochondria are concentrated in those processes. The columnar absorptive cells also contain cell organelles expected to be found in absorptive cell. Midgut regenerative cells which are positioned basally in the epithelium form the groups, which are called 'nidi', composed of 1 or $2{\sim}3$ cells, they show darker appearance than the columnar absoptive cells. The secretory granular cells contain numerous electron dense granules, $200{\sim}400$ nm in diameter. The cone shaped secretory granular cells are located in the basal portion of the midgut epitheluim. The epithelium is surrounded by the subepithelial space and muscle bundles. The subepithelial space, which is filled with fibrous connective tissue, is innervated by many axon cells and tracheoles.

  • The full-grown oocyte envelope of the two spined loaches, Niwaella multifasciata and Kichulchoia brevifasciata, was examined by electron microscopy. The oocyte is surrounded by its envelope, and an external modification (an adhesive structure) in the surface of the envelope is present. The envelope consists of two layers, a zona radiata externa which is the site of the adhesive structure, and a zona radiata interna, which has heterogeneous, electron-dense multi layers. The surface (zona radiata externa) of the envelope in N. multifasciata is equipped with short villuslike protuberances, which have a length of 1.5~2.5 ${\mu}m$ and are separated from each other by a distance of 2~2.5 ${\mu}m$. In contrast, K. brevifasciata has undulating or wave-like structures that extend over the entire oocyte surface. The waves are 1.5~2.5 ${\mu}m$ in length and are separated a distance of 2.5~3.3 ${\mu}m$ from each other.

  • Total parenteral nutritional effect was induced by surgical creation of Thiry-Vella fistula(TVFs) in rats. Glutamine, glycine or nucleosides/nucleotide mixture in solution was injected into the loops for 2, 4, 6, 8 days. Control animals received a 0.9% saline solution. Results include weight gain, total protein, DNA, [$^3$H] thymidine incorporation into DNA, morphometry of the intestine in both TVFs and intestine in continuity. Perfusion of nucleosides/nucleotide mixture into the bypassed loops caused an increase in total protein, DNA content, villous height, villous surface area in loops. The injection of glycine into loops caused an increase in [$^3$H] thymidine incorporation but the mean values of the protein and DNA contents were not significantly different from those in group Cont and group Nuc. Overall values for group Gln were slightly higher than those of the control but the differences were not statistically significant. This study suggests that this animal model may be useful for studying the effect of dietary factors on intestinal growth and maturation, separating the direct effect of diet from systemic effect on the intestine.
