This article pursues two tasks. The first is to clarify the value and productivity of Williams’s Keywords: a vocabulary culture society (first edition 1976, second expanded 1983a) for project Cultural Studies. clarification helped, I argue, by reading it alongside Vološinov’s Marxism philosophy language (published in Russian 1929, translated into English 1973). related task speculative developm...

The effects on facility of outflow of lens depression (controlled mechanical retrodisplacement of the crystalline lens to simulate cyclotonia in excised eye preparations), prolonged perfusion, and intracameral hyaluronidase were evaluated in 16 pairs of freshly excised canine eyes. Lens depression increased facility of aqueous outflow by an amount greater than could be attributed to mechanical ...

In recent papers (1, 5) it was suggested that invasion of the adjacent normal tissues by malignant tumors may be facilitated by the presence of a spreading fac,tor such as hyaluronidase. In support of this hypothesis, it was reported that some human carcinomas have been found to contain a sprcading factor. Further support would bc given to this hypothesis if it could be shown that invasiveness ...

Recently we purified to homogeneity hyaluronidase from stonefish (Synanceja horrida) venom, for the first time from a marine source [Poh, Yuen, Chung & Khoo (1992) Comp. Biochem. Physiol., in the press]. In the present study the reaction products of the hyaluronidase purified from stonefish venom were analysed. It produced tetra-, hexa-, octa- and deca-saccharides as major end products, but not...

Different workers have at various times sought to correlate the in vivo and in vitro activities of hyaluronidase preparations. Chain & Duthie (1940), drawing attention to the association between diffusion in the tissues and the mucolytic activity of testicular extracts, pointed out that the viscosityreducing and diffusing activities of various enzyme preparations were in good agreement. McClean...
