    An autopsy case of horseshoe kidney in a 76-year-old Japanese male cadaver is reported. The kidney was inferiorly convexed as a result of fusion at the inferior poles of the original kidneys. It possessed certain peculiarities representing the most frequent type, such as a lower position than the normal kidney, ventral orientation of the hilus, passage of the ureter on its ventral surface and the presence of surplus arteries.
    Two other malformations were observed: 1) the left testicular vein divided into two branches in its course and drained into the left renal and the suprarenal veins, and 2) invasion of the abdominal aorta was seen.
    The arterial distribution, not only of the surplus arteries but also the original renal arteries, may represent a developmentally incomplete pattern. The embryonic stage of the arterial development was apparently coincident with the stage of migration of the renal anlages from the pelvic to the abdominal position through the arterial crotch of the iliac or the umbilical arteries.
    In view of the anomalous arterial distribution, the authors support Lewis and Papez's theory regarding the developmental mechanism of horseshoe kidney

    The course, origin and ramification of the posterior deep temporal artery of the crab-eating monkey were studied by the acryl plastic injection method. The artery arose from the maxillary artery distal to the points of origin of the inferior alveolar and the middle meningeal arteries in all examples observed. The branches of the artery were: the anterior branch, the lateral pterygoid branch, the masseteric artery, the temporal lateral and the temporal crestal branch. These supplied the masticatory muscles except for the medial pterygoid muscle. In particular, the distribution territories of these branches were described according to the lamination of the masseter muscle (see Table 1). The artery terminated in the superior, the superoposterior and the posterior branches in the temporal muscle. The lingual branch arose from the maxillary artery near the origin of the posterior deep temporal artery in all examples, and supplied the oral mucosa behind the lower molar teeth, their lingual gingivae and the posterior margin of the mylohyoid muscle and the masticatory muscles except for the masseter.

    The significance of increased basophilia in various tissues after treatment with oxidizing agents which are widely used in histochemical studies, was investigated.
    Potassium permanganate treatment resulted in a marked increase in basophilia in gastric chief cells, gastric mucin, intestinal goblet cell mucin, thyroidal colloid, elastic fibers, pancreatic acinar cells and B cells, Purkinje cells, hypophyseal neurosecretory substances, and pilary cortex. Performic and peracetic acid treatment exerted a similar effect on neurosecretory substances, pancreatic B cells and pilary cortex, while periodic acid treatment did so only on pilary cortex. Potassium permanganate treatment resulted in increased basophilia on synthetic polypeptides of cysteine, tyrosine and tryptophan, while treatment with performic or peracetic acid exerted a similar effect on synthetic polypeptides of cysteine and tryptophan.
    The present model tissue experiments and the reaction of chemical end groups of amino acids following oxidation suggest that the permanganate-induced basophilia of tissue proteins may be attributable to cysteine, cystine, tyrosine, or tryptophan; the performic and peracetic acid-induced basophilia to cysteine, cystine or tryptophan; and the periodic acid-induced basophilia to cysteine or cystine.

    HRP was injected into the peripheral branches of the trigeminal nerve, of rats and ducks, and the subdivisional organization of the trigeminal ganglion was observed in relation to food seeking behavior. In both the rat and the duck, there were definite regions of cellular localization corresponding to the peripheral local regions. In the rat, particularly the regions demarcating the respective regions were shown to be laid three-dimensionally and zigzagged unevenly, but the adjoining regions in the rat or the duck were less vague than in previous studies using axonal degeneration (chromatolysis). Among the regions of the rat trigeminal ganglion, the largest was the NV2 region, next the NV3, and lastly the NV1. In particular, the space held by the cells innervating the sinus hair occupied almost all the NV2 region. In the duck, moreover, the Grandry corpuscles of the bill were especially numerous in the upper bill, and were equally innervated from the respective regions of NV1 and NV2in the trigeminal ganglion. The region of NV3 was quantitatively smaller than that of NV1 or NV2 in the duck (a reduction of about 20%). The above morphological findings indicate that the animal's food seeking behavior is closely related to the constitution of the trigeminal ganglion, so that it might be said that the behavioral characteristics reflect the morphological structure.
