Induced synthesis of metallothionein by pig kidney cells in vitro in response to cadmium.

Cells of a line (K7), derived from the cortex of the adult pig kidney, synthesize and accumulate high levels of metallothionein when grown in vitro in the presence of low concentrations (0.5 mug/ml) of Cd2+. This indicates that the accumulation of this protein in the kidneys of animals exposed to cadmium is due at least partly to synthesis in situ, and not solely to uptake by the renal cells of metallothionein produced by the liver. It is suggested that the ability to synthesize large amounts of metallothionein indicates the tubular origin of the cells of this line.

Two myobiid mites (Myobiidae: Trombidiformes) from the Great Himalaya Mountains).

In the region of the Barun Glacier, in the vicinity of the Makalu Mountain in the Great Himalaya (Nepal) two mite species of the family Myobiidae, Protomyobia kounickyi sp. n. and Radfordia lemnina (C. L. Koch, 1841) were found on Soriculus caudatus soluensis (Gruber) and Alticola roylei (Gray) respectively at high altitudes (3450--4900 m). A single specimen of the latter species slightly differs from specimens from the typical host, Clethrionomys glareolus (Schreber), in a greater length of l4 and d5 and in the form of coxal setae I, but it is not regarded as a different taxon.

Some cestodes and nematodes parasitizing gallinaceous and columbi-form birds in Nepal.

The birds from the valley of the Barun Khola River (Great Himalaya, Eastern Nepal), Tetraogallus tibetanus aquilonifer, Ithaginis cruentus cruentus, Lophophorus impejanus, Columba leuconota and Gallus gallus f. dom., were examined for helminths. Ten species of parasitic worms (3 of the class Cestoidea and 7 of the class Nematoda) were found in their digestive tract. One of them, Ascaridia nepalensis, is described as a new species.
