    The etiology of psoriasis, one of the common skin diseases, remains the greatest unsolved problem to the investigator of dermatological diseases. (1, 2). Of particular interest in our investigations epidermis was the fact that the scales, when limited to the water soluble portion of the scale (3, 4, 5, 6), showed an abnormally high sulfhydryl content. It might be concluded that the abnormality resulted from a failure of oxidation to -S—S- during keratinization. Recently, some doubt has been thrown on the classical conception of normal keratinization. It is suggested that keratinization has not involved the SH groups by oxidation to -S—S. (3, 6). In this paper, the purposes of the investigation are to confirm the quantitative observation of the problem of the sulfhydryl content of abnormal stratum corneum, and to enlarge the research of the reductive decomposition of -S—S- bonds produced by the action of alkaline.

    At present the application of electron microscopy to cytology as well as to the whole of histology is extensively carried on in our country, and the papers concerned with this subject are increasing in number so much that, with respect to the various problems still left unsolved by light microscopy or the fine structure of tissue which has been said hardly possible to discover owing to the little resolving power of the light microscope, new information is being added to in rapid succession. For the purpose of pursuing morphological investigations of epileptic fits, especially convulsions, the present authors, by using female rabbits as materials, have made clear the normal fine structure of the hippocampus major and the cerebral cortex to which special attention has been paid light microscopically and, at the same time, after throwing materials experimentally into convulsions by electric shock, observed them by electron microscopy. Resides the findings by Mimoto in this clinic, the results obtained by the authors will be here reported

    16 rats from two litters (8 male and 8 female) were administered 1 %, 2 % and 3 % of salt water freely, starting at the latter part of puberty (the 60th day after birth) and early part of growth completion (the 120th day after birth). The effect of salt water intake on the growth of those rats in the two different growing stages was observed. 1. The increase of body weight in the group which started taking the salt water at the latter part of puberty was inverse as the concentration increased. The growth in male was rather less than in female. 2. The increase of body weight in the group which started taking the salt water at the early part of growth completion was also inverse as the concentration increased. In comparison with the former group, however, the degree of ill effects was much less and female growth was somewhat less than male. 3. The administration of the 3 % salt water caused death in all 4 rats. The period up to death was prolonged in the female about twice as in the male. Comparing the two groups, the group starting the experiment at the latter part of puberty died much earlier than the other. 4. Growth of the tail was affected relatively as the concentration increased although there was not much difference in two groups in body weight. Also there was no significant difference between the sexes. 5. Generally speaking, the averaged calory intake per kg. per day was more in the female than the male; but the authors did not observe a meaningful difference between the two groups. The group administered 3 % salt water took particularly fewer calories. 6. The total salt intake per kg. per day was the most in the 3 % salt water administered group and decreased as the concentration was lowered. The LPP group and the female sex took remarkably more salt in comparison. The authors will make another report in the near future as to the biochemical, ecological and pathohistogical observations of the studied rats.

    Poliomyelitis is probably a very ancient disease, it has high transmissibility from any infectivity. The epidemiological studies on poliomyelitis in Japan up to 1947 have been reviewed by Paul, since 1947 there are many epidemiologic studies of poliomyelitis in Japan. Poliomyelitis became epidemic in the northern part of Fukuoka prefecture in the winter of 1960. During the next summer, the period from June to August of 1961, poliomyelitis was prevalent chiefly in Fukuoka prefecture. It was revealed that this was an epidemic of poliovirus type I. The present paper reports the results of our study on those epidemics. The study is divided into the following parts : (1). Laboratory data from paralytic cases. (2). Distribution of cases according to age, sex, geography and season. (3). Relationship between the pathogenicity of poliovirus and the in vitro marker of poliovirus. (4). Relationship between the epidemic in the northern part of Fukuoka prefecture in the winter of 1960 and the epidemic in Fukuoka, Saga and Yamaguchi prefectures in the summer of 1961.

    MK, MS, FL and HeLa cells are susceptible to ECHO and Coxsackie B viruses. Some types of viruses do not possess the ability to form plaque under the conditions adopted in this study. The Coxsackie viruses surviving heat treatment has variations as to heat stability in the state of free virus or propagating virus in cells, plaque forming ability and plaque size. The variations are different with the type of viruses.

    Shepard has been making many contributions to the study of host-parasite relationships by researching the behaviours of parasites and host cells in the course of bacteria infection, especially acid-fast bacilli to the established HeLa cells. Mori presented results similar to that which were described by Shepard. Mitsuhashi et al. reported on the conditions influencing the infections of Salmonella enteritidis to L cells which were derived from mouse fibroblast and the morphological changes of cells and bacteria after infection. The purpose of this present paper is to describe the fundamental data in regard to the factors affecting the phagocytosis rate in the case of infection of acid-fast bacilli to the L cells.
