The autopsy findings are very characteristic. They consist in swelling and reddening of Payer s Patches and mesenteric lymph glands, internal hemorrhages and diffuse nephritis. Cruz, Flexner, Mueller and others have shown that these lesions are not due to thrombosis, but to direct action on the tissues. The site of the injection is boggy. 

The use of an internal motor has found wide acceptance even for the very large autoclaves now in service, although Du Pont has used an external motor with a shaft passing through high pressure glands (157).

The First International Symposium on Disease Prevention by IP6 and other Rice Bran Components. was conducted in Kyoto, Japan on June 8-9, 1998. Scientists from all over the globe gathered and presented their research findings on the effect of IP6 and other rice bran components on several aspects of health. The brain storming sessions of nearly 35 presentations demonstrated that IP6 is a chemopreventive agent as both a cancer inhibitor and a cancer suppressor in mammary gland, colon and lung cancer (Shamsuddin et al, 1997). 

The chemoreceptive mechanisms in amphibia are undoubtedly worthy of further analysis, not only for their own sake, but to provide clues as to the origination of advanced chemosignal systems. As noted above, a pheromonal signal from the mental gland acts as a courtship/ receptivity inducer. The plethodontid receptivity factor (PRF) (Chap. 3) despite its size (22 kD), seems to have been converted from its internal role as an inter-cellular cytokine, to an inter-individual coordinator of reproductive activity (Rollmann et al., 1999). Endocrine or...

Associates, Inc. and W.H. Freeman, Sunderland, MA.) Note that organs such as liver are rich in other elements, for example, iron. The large part of the body is linked by internal bones.

In 1858 Schiff removed the thyroid gland from animals and found they could not survive. From his, and later, Horsley s, experiments and from the clinical observations it was concluded that the effects of removal or damage to the thyroid were due to a loss of its internal secretions. Confirmation of this came when patients with myxoedema were successfully treated by thyroid extracts or even by eating thyroid tissue.
