Neurosecretory cell: capable of conducting impulse in rats.

Electriic vtinulation of the rat neurohypophlysis in Situ evoked the unit action potentials. in the supraoptic nucleus. Compound and unit action potentials. were recorded from the isolated neurohypophysis stimulation. The applicaition of solutions high in potassium or devoid of sodium made the neurohypophysis inexcitable.

In order to evaluate clinical efficacy of D-penicillamine (DP) a double-blind study was conducted by the Metalcaptase Research Group consisting of forty-one rheumatological centers in Japan. A total of 179 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) was divided into two groups; one treated with 5 mg (control group) and the other with 100 mg (drug group) of DP in capsule form. The trial lasted 24 weeks. Global judgment by physicians revealed that improvement was found in 27% in the controls and 65% in the drug group. Adverse reactions occurred in 34% of the controls and 49% of the drug group.
