[Stereotaxic biopsies (SB) of intracranial neoplasms. Considerations apropos of 3,052 cases].

On May 12th 1984 a meeting on stereotactic biopsies of intraencephalic lesions has been held in Marseilles. All French Neurosurgeons and Neuropathologists involved with this technique were present. This report presents, in one hand, the result of an investigation on 3 052 BS and, in the other hand, the synthesis of discussions held on the limits and dangers of the BS, morphology of the biopsy instrument, means of the definition of the target and the microscopic histologic technics and results.

Mechanism of action of Mg2+ and Zn2+ on rat placental alkaline phosphatase. I. Studies on the soluble Zn2+ and Mg2+ alkaline phosphatases.

Rat placental alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1), a dimer of 135,000 daltons, is strongly activated by Mg2+. However, Zn2+ has to be present on the apoenzyme to obtain this activation. Mg2+ alone is unable to reconstitute functional active sites. Excess Zn2+ which competes for the Mg2+ site leads to a phosphatase with little catalytic activity at alkaline pH but with normal active sites at acidic pH as shown by covalent incorporation of ortho-[32P]phosphate. Two enzyme species with identical functional active sites have been reconstituted that only differ by the presence of Zn2+ or Mg2+ at the effector site. A mechanism is presented by which alkaline phosphatase activity of rat placenta would be controlled by a molecular process involving the interaction of Mg2+ and Zn2+ with the dimeric enzyme molecule.
