Repression is mediated by the C-terminal segment of Tat, which binds the TFIID component, TAF(II)250, although the site(s) of interaction were not defined previously. We now report that the interaction between Tat and TAFII250 is extensive and involves multiple contacts between the Tat protein and TAFII250. The C-terminal domain of Tat, which is necessary for repression of transcription initiation, binds to a segment of TAFII250 that encompasses its acetyl transferase (AT) domain (885-1034 amino acids (aa)). Surprisingly, the N-terminal segment of Tat, which contains its activation domains, also binds to TAF(II)250 and interacts with two discontinuous segments of TAFII250 located between 885 and 984 aa and 1120 and 1279 aa. Binding of Tat to the 885-984 aa segment of TAFII250 requires the cysteine-rich domain of Tat, but not the acidic or glutamine-rich domains. Binding by the N-terminal domain of Tat to the 1120-1279 aa TAFII250 segment does not involve the acidic, cysteine- or glutamine-rich domains. Repression of transcription initiation by Tat requires functional TAFII250. We now demonstrate that transcription of the HIV LTR does not depend on TAFII250 which may account for its resistance to Tat mediated repression. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Although they are abundant on neuronal cell membranes, their precise functions and importance in the central nervous system (CNS) remain largely undefined. We have disrupted the gene encoding GD3 synthase (GD3S), a sialyltransferase expressed in the CNS that is responsible for the synthesis of b-series gangliosides. GD3S-/- mice, even with an absence of b-series gangliosides, appear to undergo normal development and have a normal life span. To further restrict the expression of gangliosides, the GD3S mutant mice were crossbred with mice carrying a disrupted GalNAcT gene encoding beta1,4-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase. These double mutant mice expressed GM3 as their major ganglioside. In contrast to the single mutant mice, the double mutants displayed a sudden death phenotype and were extremely susceptible to induction of lethal seizures by sound stimulus. These results demonstrate unequivocally that gangliosides play an essential role in the proper functioning of the CNS. C1 NIDDKD, Genet Dev & Dis Branch, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA.

We have shown earlier that the Cys-rich domain is critical for signal transmission from the VFT domain to the seven-transmembrane domain. The VFT domain contains 10 cysteines: two of them (Cys(129) and Cys(131)) were identified as involved in intermolecular disulfide bonds necessary for homodimerization, and six others (Cys(60)- Cys(101), Cys(358)-Cys(395), and Cys(437)-Cys(449)) are predicted to form three intramolecular disulfide bonds. The Cys-rich domain contains nine cysteines, the involvement of which in disulfide bond formation has not been defined. In this work, we asked whether the remaining cysteines in the hCaR VFT, namely Cys(236) and Cys(482), form disulfide bond(s) with cysteines in the Cys-rich domain. We constructed mutant hCaRs with a unique tobacco etch virus (TEV) protease recognition site inserted between the VFT domain and the Cys-rich domain. These mutant hCaRs remain fully functional compared with the wild type hCaR. After TEV protease digestion of the mutant hCaR proteins, dimers of the VFT were identified on Western blot under nonreducing conditions. We concluded that there is no disulfide bond between the VFT and the Cys-rich domains in the hCaR. C1 NIDCD, Mol Pathophysiol Sect, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA.

With plasmodial thioredoxin, the enzyme also displays ping-pong kinetics, yet with a limiting K-m of 10 muM and a k(1)' of 0.55 s(-1). The apparent k(1)' for oxidation with cumene, t-butyl, and hydrogen peroxides are 2.0 x 10(4) M-1 s(-1) 3.3 x 10(3) M-1 s(-1), and 2.5 x 10(3) M-1 s(-1) respectively. k(2)' for reduction by autologous thioredoxin is 5.4 x 10(4) M-1 s(-1) (21.2 M-1 s(-1) for GSH), The newly discovered enzymatic function of the plasmodial gene product suggests a reconsideration of its presumed role in parasitic antioxidant defense.

PEVK behaves mechanically as an entropic spring and is thought to be a random coil. cDNA sequencing of human fetal skeletal PEVK reveals a modular motif with tandem repeats of modules averaging 28 residues and with superrepeats of seven;modules. Conformational studies of bacterially expressed 53-kDa fragment (TP1) by circular dichroism suggest; that this soluble protein contains substantial polyproline II (PPII) type left-handed helices. Urea and thermal titrations cause gradual and reversible decrease in PPII content. The absence of sharp melting in urea and thermal titrations suggests that there is no long range cooperativity among the PPII helices. Studies with solid phase and surface plasmon resonance assays indicate that TP1 interacts with actin and some but not all cloned nebulin fragments with high affinity. Interestingly, Ca2+/calmodulin and Ca2+/S100 abolish nebulin/PEVK interaction. We suggest that in aqueous solution) PEVK is an open and flexible chain of relatively stable structural folds of the polyproline II type. PEVK region of titin may be involved in interfilament association with thin filaments in a calcium/calmodulin-sensitive manner. This adhesion may modulate titin extensibility and elasticity.

However, deletion of the C-terminal RING domains:of c-IAP1 and c-IAP2 restored antiapoptotic activity, indicating that this region negatively regulates the antiapoptotic function of the N-terminal BIR domain. This finding is consistent with the observation by others that the spacer region and RING domain of c-IAP1 functions as an E3 ligase, promoting autoubiquitination and degradation of c-IAP1. In addition, we found that c-IAP1 is cleaved during apoptosis to 52- and 35-kDa fragments. Both fragments contain the C-terminal end of c-IAP1 including the-RING finger. In vitro cleavage of c-IAP1 with apoptotic cell extracts or with purified recombinant caspase-3 produced similar fragments. Furthermore, transfection of cells with the spacer-RING domain alone Suppressed the antiapoptotic function of the N-terminal BIR domain of c-IAP1 and induced apoptosis, Optimal death-inducing activity of the spacer-RING required both the spacer region and the zinc-binding RING domain of c-IAP1 but did not require the caspase recruitment domain located within the spacer region, To the contrary, deletion of the caspase recruitment domain increased proapoptotic activity, apparently by stabilizing the C-terminal fragment.

While physiological mechanisms underlying this response are unclear, there are several lines of evidence suggesting circulating epinephrine's influence on plasma testosterone levels. The purpose of this study was to directly relate stress-induced changes in plasma testosterone and epinephrine. The stressor used was blockade of glucose metabolism with pharmacological doses (40mg/kg) of 2 deoxyglucose (2DG). Arterial plasma samples from 10 healthy males were assayed at 20 minutes intervals for 60 minutes for the concentrations of testosterone, epinephrine and related biochemicals. Bolus administration of 2DG resulted in progressive decline in testosterone and increases in epinephrine and norepinephrine plasma levels (mean change from baseline: 29, 2530 and 186%, respectively). Inverse correlation was detected between both absolute (r(s)= -0.72; df=8; p=0.017) and baseline-corrected testosterone concentrations at the 60 minute time point and epinephrine area under the curve values. Our results suggest that adrenomedullary activation may be involved in stress-induced testosterone effects. The implications of these data for the understanding of the role of catecholamines in glucoprivic stress response are discussed. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.

We administered a Distorted Tunes Test (DTT), which requires subjects to judge whether simple popular melodies contain notes with incorrect pitch, to 136 monozygotic twin pairs and 148 dizygotic twin pairs. The correlation of DTT scores between twins was estimated at 0.67 for monozygotic pairs and 0.44 for dizygotic pairs. Genetic model-fitting, techniques supported an additive genetic model, with heritability; estimated at 0.71 to 0.80, depending on how subjects were categorized, and with no effect of shared environment. DTT scores were only weakly correlated with measures of peripheral hearing. This suggests that variation in musical pitch recognition is primarily due to highly heritable differences in auditory functions not tested by conventional audiologic methods.

Two force regimes are apparent: a very short ranged, temperature insensitive force that dominates interactions within the last 2.5 Angstrom separation and a longer-ranged force that varies exponentially vs distance with a decay length of about 3-4 Angstrom. The longer-ranged force characteristics are strikingly similar to those found for many other macromolecules. We have previously argued that these characteristics are due to a hydration or water structuring force. The amplitude of the longer ranged force in these condensed arrays decreases linearly with temperature. The force switches from repulsive to attractive at similar to 40 degreesC, about the same temperature at which HPC precipitates from dilute solution. The entropy of the HPC condensed array, derived from the temperature dependence of the force, also varies exponentially vs spacing with a 3-4 Angstrom decay length. Measured forces are also surprisingly sensitive to added salt. Salt acts by its exclusion from the HPC phase. The salt concentration gradient within the space between polymers, inferred from the salt concentration dependence of the force curves, is itself apparently exponential with the about same 3-4 Angstrom decay length as the force and entropy.

Identifying the specific receptor subtype( s) that mediate the diverse muscarinic actions of acetylcholine is of considerable therapeutic interest, but has proved difficult primarily because of a lack of subtype-selective ligands(3). Here we show that mice deficient in the M3 muscarinic receptor (M3R(-/-) mice) display a significant decrease in food intake, reduced body weight and peripheral fat deposits, and very low levels of serum leptin and insulin. Paradoxically, hypothalamic messenger RNA levels of melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH), which are normally upregulated in fasted animals leading to an increase in food intake(4,5), are significantly reduced in M3R(-/-) mice. Intra-cerebroventricular injection studies show that an agouti-related peptide analogue lacked orexigenic (appetite-stimulating) activity in M3R(-/-) mice. However, M3R(-/-) mice remained responsive to the orexigenic effects of MCH. Our data indicate that there may be a cholinergic pathway that involves M3-receptor-mediated facilitation of food intake at a site downstream of the hypothalamic leptin/melanocortin system and upstream of the MCH system.

SO NEW ENGLAND JOURNAL OF MEDICINE LA English DT Article; Proceedings Paper CT 13th International AIDS Conference CY JUL 09-SEP 14, 2000 CL DURBAN, SOUTH AFRICA ID VIRAL LOAD; NATURAL-HISTORY; SEX-DIFFERENCES; ANTIRETROVIRAL THERAPY; SERUM LEVELS; VIRUS LOAD; DRUG-USERS; SEROCONVERSION; INFECTION; DISEASE AB Background: It is unclear whether there are differences between men and women with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection in the plasma level of viral RNA (the viral load). In men, the initial viral load after seroconversion predicts the likelihood of progression to the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), but the relation between the two has not been assessed in women. Currently, the guidelines for initiating antiretroviral therapy are applied uniformly to women and men. Methods: From 1988 through 1998, the viral load and the CD4+ lymphocyte count were measured approximately every six months in 156 male and 46 female injection-drug users who were followed prospectively after HIV-1 seroconversion. Results: The median initial viral load was 50,766 copies of HIV-1 RNA per milliliter in the men but only 15,103 copies per milliliter in the women (P<0.001). The median initial CD4+ count did not differ significantly according to sex (659 and 672 cells per cubic millimeter, respectively). HIV-1 infection progressed to AIDS in 29 men and 15 women, and the risk of progression did not differ significantly according to sex. For each increase of 1 log in the viral load (on a base 10 scale), the hazard ratio for progression to AIDS was 1.55 (95 percent confidence interval, 0.97 to 2.47) among the men and 1.43 (95 percent confidence interval, 0.76 to 2.69) among the women. The median initial viral load was 77,822 HIV-1 RNA copies per milliliter in the men in whom AIDS developed and 40,634 copies per milliliter in the men in whom it did not; the corresponding values in the women were 17,149 and 12,043 copies per milliliter. Given the recommendation that treatment should be initiated when the viral load reaches 20,000 copies per milliliter, 74 percent of the men but only 37 percent of the women in our study would have been eligible for therapy at the first visit after seroconversion (P<0.001). Conclusions: Although the initial level of HIV-1 RNA was lower in women than in men, the rates of progression to AIDS were similar. Treatment guidelines that are based on the viral load, rather than the CD4+ lymphocyte count, will lead to differences in eligibility for antiretroviral treatment according to sex.

The newly identified epithelium-specific ets transcription factor ERT/ESX/ELF-3/ESE-1/jen binds to the TGF-beta RII promoter and induces promoter activity. The human gastric cancer cell lines, which show undetectable level of TGF-beta RII mRNA, do not express ERT mRNA, To study the molecular mechanisms of loss of ERT expression, we have cloned and characterized the human ERT promoter, DNA transfection experiments and electrophoretic mobility shift assays have revealed the existence of a distinct enhancer element (-186 to -177) which we named ESE ((E) under bar RT promoter Specific element). Deletion of the ESE markedly decreased expression of the target gene. ESE interacts with two distinct nuclear protein complexes, at least one of which appears to be inactivated in a cell line which does not express the ERT mRNA, compared to a cell line expressing the ERT mRNA, These results suggest the possibility that inactivation of the sequence-specific DNA binding protein to the region from -186 to -177 contributes to the loss of ERT expression, leading to the loss of TGF-beta type II receptor mRNA in human gastric cancer cell lines.

Cell cycle and TUNEL analysis showed that, upon TGF-beta1 treatment, cells mere initially arrested at the G1 phase and then driven into apoptosis, Of note, caspase-3 was activated in accordance with TGF-beta1-induced G1 arrest, Activated caspase-3 is targeted to cleave p21(cip1), p27(kip1), and Rb, which play important roles in TGF-beta -induced G1 arrest, into;inactive fragments. Subsequently, Cdk2 was aberrantly activated due to the cleavage of p21 and p27, We found that the inhibition of Cdk2 activity efficiently blocks TGF-beta1-induced apoptosis, whereas it did; not prevent caspase-3 activation or the subsequent cleavage of target proteins, In contrast, the suppression of caspase-3 activity inhibited the cleavage of target proteins, the activation of Cdk2, and the induction of apoptosis. Taken together, our results suggest that activation of caspase-3 by TGF-beta1 may initiate the conversion from G1 cell cycle arrest to apoptosis via the cleavage of p21, p27 and Rb, which in turn causes Cdk2 activation and, most significantly, Cdk2 activation as a downstream effector of caspase is a critical step for the execution TGF-beta1-induced apoptosis.

The most concise approach involves sequential coupling of o-bromoiodobenzenes with benzylmercaptan and zinc acetylides to give benzyl o-ethynylphenyl sulfides which react with iodine to give 3-iodobenzo[b]thiophenes in a 5-endo-dig iodocyclization. These iodides can be further elaborated using palladium-mediated coupling and/or metalation techniques. This method has been applied to the synthesis of some novel tubulin binding agents.

These enzymes catalyze the hydration of carbon dioxide and are essential for regulation of cellular pH and carbon dioxide transport. Carbonic anhydrase III is highly expressed in certain tissues, including muscle and fat where it constitutes up to 25% of the soluble protein. We cloned a cDNA encoding mouse carbonic anhydrase III. This cDNA contains 1653 bp, consisting of 79 bp in the 5' UTR, a 780 bp open reading frame, and 794 bp of the 3' UTR, including two potential polyadenylation signals. Fluorescent in situ hybridization confirmed the existence of a single copy of the gene on chromosome 3. We then isolated the genomic DNA for mouse carbonic anhydrase III and analyzed its structure. The gene consists of seven exons and six introns which spun 10.5 kb. The 5' flanking region of the genomic DNA is notable for a pyrimidine rich region consisting of two dinucleotide repeats containing 23 and 20 TC pairs separated by the same 15 bp spacer.

Database analyses of ESTs indicated prostate specificity but experimental results showed the expression in other tissues. The full length transcript is 1800 bp with an open reading frame of 526 aa. The amino-terminal 230 residues of the expressed protein has high homology to a family of lectins, especially to the sugar binding domain of ERGIC-53. We therefore designate the new gene ERGL (ERGIC-53-like). There is a transmembrane domain at amino acid positions 468-482 suggesting that the product of ERGL is a type-I membrane protein. In prostate there are two fully processed transcripts one of which is a splice variant with a deletion in the region of the transmembrane domain of the protein. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

To investigate the reasons for this difference, we evaluated the association between race/ ethnicity and advanced-stage prostate cancer, adjusting for demographic, socioeconomic, clinical, and pathologic factors. Methods: A population-based cohort of 3173 men diagnosed with prostate cancer between October 1, 1994, and October 31, 1995, was analyzed. Medical record abstracts and self-administered survey questionnaires were used to obain information regarding race/ethnicity, age, marital status, insurance status, educational level, household income, employment status, comorbidity, urinary function, prostate-specific antigen level, tumor grade, and clinical stage. The odds ratio (OR) for advanced-stage prostate cancer was estimated with weighted logistic regression analysis. All P values were two-sided. Results: Clinically advanced-stage prostate cancers were detected more frequently in African-Americans (12.3%) and Hispanics (10.5%) than in non-Hispanic whites (6.3%). Socioeconomic, clinical, and pathologic factors each accounted for about 15% of the increased relative risk. After adjusting for all covariates, the risk remained statistically significantly increased for African-Americans (OR = 2.26; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.43 to 3.58) but not for Hispanics (OR = 1.23; 95% CI = 0.73 to 2.08). Conclusion: Traditional socioeconomic, clinical, and pathologic factors accounted for the increased relative risk for presenting with advanced-stage prostate cancer in Hispanic but not in African-American men.

We used cultures of normal human tracheobronchial epithelial (NHTBE) cells that were shown to secrete two major airway mucins, namely MUC5AC and MUC5B as well as several other secretory products. Mucous differentiation and expression of MUC2, MUC5AC, MUC5B and MUC7, but not MUCi, MUC4, and MUC8 mucin genes, were shown to be retinoic acid- (RA) or retinol-dependent. We found that RA control of mucin genes was mediated by the retinoid acid receptors RAR alpha and, to a lesser extent, by RAR gamma Our studies also showed that other important bioregulators such as thyroid hormone (T-3) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) modulate basal expression of mucin genes, interacting with RA in a concentration-dependent manner. T-3, which binds to thyroid receptors (TRs) belonging to the same superfamily of steroid hormone nuclear receptors as the RARs, inhibits mucin gene expression, particularly MUCSAC. One possible mechanism of this T-3 effect is downregulation of RAR proteins, which are critical for mucin gene expression. However, we also found that T-3 inhibits MUC5AC transcription. EGF, which had previously been shown to stimulate mucin expression and mucin secretion in cultured rat tracheal epithelial (RTE) cells, inhibited mucin secretion in human bronchial epithelial cell cultures. This effect was EGF concentration- and time-dependent and was progressively abolished by increasing the RA concentration. Subsequent studies suggested that the inhibitory effects of high. concentrations of EGF may result from selective reduction of MUCSAC expression. These studies thus point to potentially important species differences in the mechanisms regulating mucous production, and they also confirm previous findings indicating differential regulation of MUCSAC and MUCSB gene expression.

The Framingham Heart Study SO CIRCULATION LA English DT Article DE blood pressure; hypertension; pulse pressure; coronary disease ID ISOLATED SYSTOLIC HYPERTENSION; CARDIOVASCULAR MORTALITY; PREDICTORS AB Background-We examined the relative importance of diastolic (DBP), systolic (SBP) and pulse pressure (PP) as predictors of coronary heart disease (CHD) risk in different age groups of Framingham Heart Study participants. Methods and Results-We studied 3060 men and 3479 women between 20 and 79 years of age who were free of CHD and were not on antihypertensive drug therapy at baseline. Cox regression adjusted for age, sex, and other risk factors was used to assess the relations of BP indexes to CHD risk over a 20-year follow-up. In the group <50 years of age, DBP was the strongest predictor of CHD risk (hazard ratio [HR] per 10 mm Hg increment, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.18 to 1.51) rather than SBP (HR, 1.14; 95% CI, 1.06 to 1.24) or PP (HR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.89 to 1.17). In the group 50 to 59 years of age, risks were comparable for all 3 BP indexes. In the older age group, the strongest predictor of CHD risk was PP (HR, 1.24; 95% CI, 1.16 to 1.33). When both SEP and DBP were considered jointly, the former was directly and the latter was inversely related to CHD risk in the oldest age group. Conclusions-With increasing age, there was a gradual shift from DBP to SEP and then to PP as predictors of CHD risk. In patients <50 years of age, DBP was the strongest predictor. Age 50 to 59 years was a transition period when all 3 BP indexes were comparable predictors, and from 60 years of age on, DBP was negatively related to CHD risk so that PP became superior to SEP.

We have addressed this question by performing single amino acid mutagenesis of the 15 TCR contact sites on the human histocompatibility leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A2 molecule recognized by the A6 TCR specific for the Tax peptide presented by HLA-A2. The results demonstrate that mutagenesis of only three amino acids (R65, K66, and A69) that are clustered on the alpha1 helix affected T cell recognition of the Tax/HLA-A2 complex. At least one of these three mutants affected T cell recognition by every member of a large panel of Tax/HLA-A2-specific T cell lines. Biacore measurements showed that these three HLA-A2 mutations also altered A6 TCR binding kinetics, reducing binding affinity. These results show that for Tax/HLA-A2-specific TCRs, there is a location on the central portion of the alpha1 helix that provides interactions crucial to their function with the MHC molecule.

Development of new antiinflammatory strategies for such diseases would be aided by an understanding of mechanisms underlying differential steroid responsiveness. Two protein isoforms of the human glucocorticoid receptor (GR) exist, GR alpha and GR beta, which arise from alternative splicing of the GR pre-mRNA primary transcripts. GR beta does not bind glucocorticoids and is an inhibitor of GR alpha activity. Relative amounts of these two GRs can therefore determine the level of glucocorticoid sensitivity. In this study, human neutrophils and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were studied to determine the relative amounts of each GR isoform. The mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) using immunofluorescence analysis for GR alpha was 475 +/- 62 and 985 +/- 107 for PBMCs and neutrophils, respectively. For GR beta, the MFI was 350 +/- 60 and 1,389 +/- 143 for PBMCs and neutrophils, respectively (P < 0.05). After interleukin (IL)-8 stimulation of neutrophils, there was a statistically significant increase in intensity of GR staining to 2,497 +/- 140 (P < 0.05). No change in GR expression was observed. This inversion of the GR alpha /GR beta ratio in human neutrophils compared with PBMCs was confirmed by quantitative Western analysis. Increased GR beta mRNA expression in neutrophils at baseline, and after IL-8 exposure, was observed using RNA dot blot analysis. Increased levels of GR alpha /GR beta heterodimers were found in neutrophils as compared with PBMCs using coimmunoprecipitation/Western analysis. Transfection of mouse neutrophils, which do not contain GR beta, resulted in a significant reduction in the rate of cell death when treated with dexamethasone. We conclude that high constitutive expression of GR beta by human neutrophils may provide a mechanism by which these cells escape glucocorticoid-induced cell death. Moreover, upregulation of this GR by proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-8 further enhances their survival in the presence of glucocorticoids during inflammation.

In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that inhibition of catecholamine metabolism with the MAO-A inhibitor, clorgyline, might enhance cocaine-induced increases in extracellular dopamine and norepinephrine in rat nucleus accumbens. Male rats were pretreated with clorgyline (1 mg/kg, s.c.) or its saline vehicle (1 ml/kg, s.c.), and microdialysis probes were inserted into previously implanted guide cannulae. After overnight perfusion of the probes in situ, rats received an acute challenge injection of either cocaine (1 mg/kg, i.v.) or its saline vehicle (1 ml/kg, i.v.). Clorgyline pretreatment alone caused significant elevations in basal levels of dialysate norepinephrine but not dopamine. Cocaine administration elicited significant increases in extracellular dopamine and norepinephrine in all groups of rats, and this effect was not altered by clorgyline pretreatment. The 1 mg/kg dose of clorgyline decreased dopamine metabolites in postmortem brain tissue by more than 80%. Our data are consistent with clinical studies that demonstrate pretreatment with the MAO-B selective inhibitor, selegeline, fails to alter cocaine-induced subjective effects in human drug users. Moreover, these findings suggest that adverse consequences related to altered catecholamine transmission would not occur if patients taking phenelzine, a non-selective MAO inhibitor, relapsed and used cocaine.

DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) is involved in V(D)J recombination and DNA double strand break repair, and may play a role in cell death induced by DNA damage. We now report that cultured hippocampal neurons from severe combined immunodeficient (scid) mice which lack DNA-PK activity are hypersensitive to apoptosis induced by exposure to topoisomerase inhibitors, amyloid beta peptide (AP) and glutamate. A similar increased vulnerability of hippocampal CAI and CA3 neurons was observed in adult scid mice after kainate-induced seizures. Our results suggest that DNA-PK activity is important for neuron survival under conditions that may occur in neurological disorders. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

The cellular mechanisms by which the amygdala participates in emotional learning are believed to be changes in efficacy of synaptic transmission, similar to long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD). Although different forms of FTP have been shown in the amygdala, many of their features are still unknown. Here, we use both field potential and intracellular recordings in rat amygdala slices, and show that LTP in the basolateral nucleus, induced by high-frequency stimulation (HFS) of the external capsule is input-specific, can be reversed by low-frequency stimulation (LFS), and can be reinstated by HFS. These synapse-specific, reversible changes in synaptic strength in the basolateral nucleus of the amygdala may be important to amygdala's role in emotional memory.

Here we report that a gene recently discovered in the eubacterium Bacillus halodurans codes for a protein closely related to eukaryotic Ca2+ channels, but that has only one 6-transmembrane-segement (6TM) motif, instead of four, in its pore-forming subunit. This is supported by the comparison of consensus sequences, which, along with the patterns of residue conservation, indicates a similar structure in the membrane to voltage-gated K+ channels. From this we hypothesize that Ca2+ channels originally evolved in bacteria, and that the specific eubacteria protein highlighted here is an ideal candidate for structure determination efforts.

Booze, Rosemarie Nath, Avindra TI Estrogen protects against the synergistic toxicity by HIV proteins, methamphetamine and cocaine SO BMC NEUROSCIENCE LA English DT Article AB Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection continues to increase at alarming rates in drug abusers, especially in women. Drugs of abuse can cause long-lasting damage to the brain and HIV infection frequently leads to a dementing illness. To determine how these drugs interact with HIV to cause CNS damage, we used an in vitro human neuronal culture characterized for the presence of dopaminergic receptors, transporters and estrogen receptors. We determined the combined effects of dopaminergic drugs, methamphetamine, or cocaine with neurotoxic HIV proteins, gp120 and Tat. Results: Acute exposure to these substances resulted in synergistic neurotoxic responses as measured by changes in mitochondrial membrane potential and neuronal cell death. Neurotoxicity occurred in a sub-population of neurons. Importantly, the presence of 17beta-estradiol prevented these synergistic neurotoxicities and the neuroprotective effects were partly mediated by estrogen receptors. Conclusion: Our observations suggest that methamphetamine and cocaine may affect the course of HIV dementia, and additionally suggest that estrogens modify the HIV-drug interactions.

To better understand the neurochemical mechanisms potentially mediating these cues, we measured nucleus accumbens dopamine levels in animals exposed to environmental cues previously paired with cocaine administration. In animals exposed to a cocaine-paired environment nucleus accumbens dopamine increased by 25%. When administered 2.5 h prior to presentation of the environmental trigger, racemic vigabatrin tan irreversible inhibitor of gamma -aminobutyric acid (GABA)-transaminase) abolished this cue-induced increase. Conversely, R-(-)-vigabatrin, the inactive enantiomer, had no effect. Combined with our earlier findings, these studies support the potential therapeutic benefit of this enzyme-based GABAergic strategy to modulate brain dopamine and the subsequent treatment of drug addiction.

Despite this, methadone maintenance is a standard method of managing pregnant heroin addicts, and the opioid receptor partial agonist buprenorphine is under evaluation for the same use. We now report that perinatal administration of either methadone or buprenorphine reduces the content of the neurotrophic factor nerve growth factor (NGF) in rat striatum, which may explain the behavioral deficits observed. Furthermore, although NGF content is reduced, there are no corresponding reductions in striatal NGF mRNA. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

It has been suggested that DNA secondary structures are responsible for this expansion, If this is so, we would expect that all unstable repeats should form such structures. We show here that the unstable repeat that causes progressive myoclonus epilepsy type-1 (EPM1), like the repeats associated,vith other diseases in this category, forms a variety of secondary structures, However, EPM1 is unique in that tetraplexes are the only structures likely to form in long unpaired repeat tracts under physiological conditions.

Although it has been considered to contain only positive cis-regulatory sequences, our study of the enhancement conferred by segments of HS2 in erythroid cells reveals a novel negative element. Individual cis-regulatory elements from HS2 such as E boxes or Maf-response elements produced as great or greater enhancement than the intact core in mouse erythroleukemia (MEL) cells, indicating the presence of negative elements within HS2. A deletion series through HS2 revealed negative elements at the 5' and 3' ends of the core. Analysis of constructs with and without the 5' negative element showed that the effect is exerted on the promoters of globin genes expressed at embryonic, fetal, or adult stages. The negative effect was observed in bipotential human cells (K562 and human erythroleukemia (HEL) cells), proerythroblastic mouse (MEL) cells, and normal adult human erythroid cells. The novel negative element also functions after stable integration into MEL chromosomes. Smaller deletions at the 5' end of the HS2 core map the negative element within a 20-base pair region containing two conserved sequences.

Withdrawal of IL-3 from an IL-3-dependent pro-B cell line induced early stress-related events that preceded cell death by more than 40 h. Intracellular pH rose above pH 7.8, peaking 2-3 h post-IL-3 withdrawal, and induced a transient increase in mitochondrial membrane potential (Delta psi (m)) detected using several different dyes. Similar events were observed following IL-7 withdrawal from a different dependent cell line. Bcl-2, Bax, and caspases were unrelated to these early events. Intracellular alkaline pH inhibited the mitochondrial import of ADP, which would limit ATP synthesis. Total cellular ATP sharply declined during this early period, presumably as a consequence of suppressed ADP import. This was followed by an increase in reduced pyridine nucleotides. The transient increase in Delta psi (m) was blocked by oligomycin, an inhibitor of F0F1. ATPase that may have undergone reversal caused by the abnormal ADP-ATP balance within mitochondria. These findings suggest a novel sequence of early events following trophic factor withdrawal in which alkaline pH inhibits ADP import into mitochondria, reversing the F0F1. ATPase, which in turn consumes ATP and pumps out protons, raising Delta psi (m). C1 NCI, Sect Cytokines & Immun, Mol Immunoregulat Lab, Div Basic Sci,NIH, Frederick, MD 21702 USA.

Purified recombinant beta -CD protein cleaves beta -carotene in vitro with a V-max of 36 pmol of retinal/mg of enzyme/ min and a K-m of 6 muM. Non-provitamin A carotenoids were also cleaved, although with much lower activity. By Northern analysis, a 2.4-kilobase (kb) message was observed in liver, kidney, small intestine, and testis, tissues important in retinoid/carotenoid metabolism. This message encoded a 63-kDa cytosolic protein expressed in these tissues. A shorter transcript of 1.8 kb was found in testis and skin. Developmentally, the 2,4-kb mRNA was abundant at embryonic day 7, with lower expression at embryonic days 11, 13, and 15, suggesting a critical role for this enzyme in gastrulation. Identification of beta -CD in an accessible model organism will create new opportunities to study vitamin A metabolism. C1 NEI, LRCMB, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA.

Complex cI (9.5 S) contained transcriptional corepressor CoREST/ kiaa0071 and a protein homologous to FAD-dependent oxidoreductases, kiaa0601, Complex cII (15 S) contained greater than or equal to 15 proteins, including CHD3/4 (Mi-2), Mta-L1, RbAp48/ 46, and MBD3, characteristic of vertebrate nucleosome-remodeling complexes. Under native conditions, cI and cII may contain HDAC1, HDAC2 or both; these can be dissociated to cI and cII core complexes containing only HDAC1 or HDAC2, The (m)CpG-binding protein MBD2 was associated only with the HDAC1 cII core complex, A model is proposed in which HDAC1 core complexes can be targeted to methylated DNA via MBD2 with recruitment of HDAC2 occurring through formation of HDAC1/2 cII dimers, We note that the cI component CoREST/kiaa0071 and the cII component Mta-L1 share a region of homology that includes a SANT domain; this domain may play a role in complex assembly.

Surprisingly, the three-dimensional structures of the CA from different genera exhibit alpha -helical structural features that are highly conserved. The N-terminal residues of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) capsid proteins form a beta -hairpin. To determine if this feature is conserved in the retroviral family, we cloned, expressed, purified, and solved the structure of a N-terminal 134 amino acid fragment (CA(134)) from the human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-I) using high resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The CA(134) fragment contains an N-terminal beta -hairpin and a central coiled-coil-like structure composed of six alpha -helices. The N-terminal Pro1 residue contacts Asp54 in the helical cluster through a salt bridge. Thus, the beta -hairpin is conserved and the helical cluster is structurally similar to other retroviral CA domains. However, although the same Asp residue defines the orientation of the hairpin in both the HTLV-1 and HIV-1 CA proteins, the HTLV-I hairpin is oriented away, rather than towards, the helical core. Significant differences were also detected in the spatial orientation and helical content of the long centrally located loop connecting the helices in the core. It has been proposed that the salt bridge allows the formation of a CA-CA interface that is important for the assembly of the conical cores that are characteristic of HIV-1. As HTLV-I forms spherical cores, the salt-bridge feature is apparently not conserved for this function although its role in determining the orientation of the beta -hairpin may be critical, along with the central loop. Comparison of three-dimensional structures is expected to elucidate the relationships between the retroviral capsid protein structure and its function. (C) 2001 Academic Press.

Cell migration toward platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). which stimulates sphingosine kinase and increases intracellular SPP, was dependent on expression of EDG-1. Deletion of edg-1 or inhibition of sphingosine kinase suppressed chemotaxis toward PDGF and also activation of the small guanosine triphosphatase Rac, which is essential for protrusion of lamellipodia and forward movement. Moreover, PDGF activated EDG-1, as measured by translocation of beta -arrestin and phosphorylation of EDG-1. Our results reveal a role for receptor cross-communication in which activation of a GPCR by a receptor tyrosine kinase is critical for cell motility.

Medical records of 1198 inpatient detoxification (detox) admissions were analyzed. Numbers of past admissions to completed deter, methadone, or other types of drug abuse treatment were totaled and ranked to determine most frequent type. Within gender, treatment histories of single and multiple drug abusers usually do not differ. The one exception is male multiple drug abusers ages 26-30, who show increased admissions. Possible explanations are that men do not seek treatment before developing medical complications of addiction or until external factors influence admission. There were differences in treatment histories between genders in multiple drug abusers only. Before age 30, women reported increased treatment of certain types. Possible explanations are that treatment priority is given to women who are, or may be, pregnant. Also, younger men may not enter or complete treatment. Previous treatment history may influence many behaviors. The results of this study delineate several valuable indicators for assessing past history. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Three factors with eigenvalues greater than 1.0 were obtained, accounting for 56.6% of the variance. Factor 1 was loaded by questions "How soon on waking do you smoke your first cigarette?," "Do you find it difficult to refrain from smoking in places it is forbidden?," "How many cigarettes a day do you smoke?," and "Do you smoke if you are so ill that you are in bed most of the day?" Factor 2 was loaded by questions "Which cigarette would you hate to give up?" and "Do you smoke more during the morning than during the rest of the day?" Factor 3 was loaded exclusively by question "What brand do you smoke?" The question "Do you inhale always, sometimes, or never?" loaded exclusively on a fourth factor, however its eigenvalue did not reach significance. Support is provided for the modification of the eight-item FTQ to the six-item Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND). Based on the wording of the questions that loaded on each factor, we propose that Factor 2 assesses the degree of urgency to initiate smoking after overnight abstinence and that Factor 1 reflects the persistence of smoking during waking hours.

Serologic analysis revealed that 27 (28.7%) of the 94 specimens were seropositive by both peptide and whole-virus lysate EIAs and that 24 were positive by molecular screening assays, using generic primers that can detect all known groups of HIV-1. Phylogenetic analyses of the gag(p24), C2V3, and gp41 regions of these 24 specimens showed that all were group M; none of them had any evidence of group O, N, or SIVcpz-like sequences. On the basis of env sequence analysis, the 24 group M specimens were classified as subtypes G (37.5%), A (21%), F1 (12.5%), CRF01_AE (8%), D (4%), and H (4%); 3 (12.5%) were unclassifiable (U). Similar analysis of the gag(p24) region revealed that the majority of infections were subtype A; however, one-third of the specimens were subtype G. Parallel analysis of gag(p24) and env regions revealed discordant subtypes in many specimens that may reflect possible dual and/or recombinant viruses. These data suggest a predominance of subtype G (both pure G and recombinant CRF02_AG) during the early part of the epidemic in Kinshasa. Infections with group N or SIVcpz-like viruses were not present among these CSWs in Kinshasa. C1 CDC, NCID, DASTLR, HIV Immunol & Diagnost Branch, Atlanta, GA 30333 USA.

Methods Echocardiography was used in the second Strong Heart Study (SHS) examination to identify mild and severe LVD (LV ejection fraction [EF] 40%-54% and <40%, respectively) in 3184 American Indians. Results Mild and severe LVD were more common in men than women (17.4% vs 7.2% and 4.7% vs 1.8%) and in diabetic than nondiabetic participants (12.7% vs 9.1% and 3.5% vs 1.6%). Stepwise increases were observed from participants with normal EF to those with mild and severe LVD in age (mean 60 vs 61 and 63 years, P<.001), prevalence of overt CHF (2% vs 6% and 28%) and definite coronary heart disease (3% vs 11% and 32%), systolic pressure (129 vs 135 and 136 mm Hg), serum creatinine level (0.98 vs 1.34 and 2.16 mg/dL), and log urinary albumin/creatinine level (3.2 vs 3.7 and 4.7); a negative relation was seen with body moss index (31.1 vs 31.0 and 28.4 kg/m(2)) (all P<.001), In multivariate analyses lower LVEFs were independently associated with clinical CHF and coronary heart disease, lower myocardial contractility, male sex, hypertension, overweight, arterial stiffening (higher pulse pressure/stroke volume) and renal dysfunction (higher serum creatinine level), higher LV mass, and lower relative wall thickness. Conclusions LVD, present in approximately 14% of middle-aged to elderly adults, is independently associated with overt heart failure and coronary heart disease, male sex, hypertension, overweight, arterial stiffening, and renal target organ damage and, less consistently, with older age and diabetes.

In the absence of an animal model for studying arsenic carcinogenesis, epidemiologic studies provide the only quantitative data for guiding risk assessment at levels that commonly occur in drinking water. To date, most estimates of risk at low and moderate levels of exposure (<200 g/liter) have been based on extrapolation from ecologic studies of populations exposed to much higher levels. Epidemiologic data from the prospective cohort study by Chiou et al. that appears in this issue of the Journal (Am J Epidemiol 2001;153:411-18) make an important contribution to improving the precision of the estimated risk of transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary tract associated with ingested arsenic from drinking water. The great strength of the study derives from having individually based measures of exposure and cancer diagnoses. Arsenic in water is a topic of great concern and controversy, and epidemiologic studies will continue to provide crucial information about the risks of cancer and other diseases associated with ingested arsenic.

Using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measures of body composition as the dependent variable and field measures of body composition by anthropometry and bioelectrical impedance as the explanatory variables, ethnic-specific prediction equations were developed on a sample of girls representing a wide range of ages and BMI. The equations were cross-validated using (1) the Prediction of Sum of Squares (PRESS) statistic and (2) an independent sample of 20 girls of each race from a study conducted at the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD). Subjects were 65 White and 61 Black girls 6-17 years of age. The best race-specific equations for FFM each explained 99% and 97% of the variance in the White and Black girls, respectively. Root mean square errors (RMSE) ranged from 1.14 to 1.95 kg. The equation for Black girls used Stature(2)/Resistance (R), weight, and reactance (X-c) as predictor variables; the equation for White girls used Stature(2)/R, weight, and triceps skinfold thickness. The results indicate that (1) equations to predict FFM in girls should be ethnic specific and that (2) accurate values for TBF and %BF can be calculated from the predicted FFM. Am. J. Hum.

Previously, we had mapped the FD gene, DYS, to a 0.5-cM region on chromosome 9q31 and had shown that the ethnic bias is due to a founder effect, with >99.5% of disease alleles sharing a common ancestral haplotype. To investigate the molecular basis of FD, we sequenced the minimal candidate region and cloned and characterized its five genes. One of these, IKBKAP, harbors two mutations that can cause FD. The major haplotype mutation is located in the donor splice site of intron 20. This mutation can result in skipping of exon 20 in the mRNA of patients with FD, although they continue to express varying levels of wild-type message in a tissue-specific manner. RNA isolated from lymphoblasts of patients is primarily wild-type, whereas only the deleted message is seen in RNA isolated from brain. The mutation associated with the minor haplotype in four patients is a missense (R696P) mutation in exon 19, which is predicted to disrupt a potential phosphorylation site. Our findings indicate that almost all cases of FD are caused by an unusual splice defect that displays tissue-specific expression; and they also provide the basis for rapid carrier screening in the Ashkenazi Jewish population.

Molecular modeling of the FOXC1 forkhead domain predicted that the missense mutations did not alter FOXC1 structure. Biochemical analyses indicated that, whereas all mutant proteins correctly localize to the cell nucleus, the I87M mutation reduced FOXC1- protein levels. DNA-binding experiments revealed that, although the S82T and S131L mutations decreased DNA binding, the F112S and I126M mutations did not. However, the F112S and I126M mutations decrease the transactivation ability of FOXC1. All the FOXC1 mutations had the net effect of reducing FOXC1 transactivation ability. These results indicate that the FOXC1 forkhead domain contains separable DNA-binding and transactivation functions. In addition, these findings demonstrate that reduced stability, DNA binding, or transactivation, all causing a decrease in the ability of FOXC1 to transactivate genes, can underlie AR malformations.

This disorder is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait and is caused by mutations of the GLI3 gene encoding a zinc finger transcription factor. We describe a case of Pallister-Hall syndrome with growth hormone neurosecretory dysfunction, successfully treated with growth hormone until attainment of final height. We conclude that children with Pallister-Hall syndrome and short stature be evaluated carefully for spontaneous somatotropic function and, if necessary, treated with growth hormone.

All seven of the patients had moderate-to-severe manifestations of the disease, and all developed symptoms by adolescence. Genotypic analyses revealed that no two probands shared the same genotype, The common mutations N370S, c.84-85insG, IVS2+1 G--> A, and R463C were not seen. Mutation L444P was present on one allele in each of the patients: but the same mutation was encountered as a single point mutation in three of the patients, and as part of a recombinant allele in four of the patients. Southern blot analyses revealed a glucocerebrosidase fusion allele in one patient, and a duplication resulting from recombination in the region downstream from the glucocerebrosidase gene in three of the patients. Five different point mutations (A90T, R48W, N117D, R170C, and V352L), one deletion mutation (c.222-224 delTAC), and one insertion mutation (c.153-154 insTACAGC) were encountered. Our results demonstrate that there is significant genotypic heterogeneity among African-American patients with type 1 Gaucher disease, and that recombinations in the glucocerebrosidase gene locus are particularly common in this patient group.

Methods: Therefore, 33,479 renal transplant recipients in the United States Renal Data System from July 1, 1994 to June 30, 1997 were analyzed in a retrospective registry study of the incidence, associated factors, and mortality of hospitalizations with a primary discharge diagnosis of septicemia (ICD9 Code 038.x). Results: Renal transplant recipients had an adjusted incidence ratio of hospitalizations for septicemia of 41.52 (95% CI 35.45-48.96) compared to the general population. Hospitalizations for septicemia were most commonly associated with urinary tract infection as a secondary diagnosis (30.6%). In multivariate analysis, diabetes and urologic disease, female gender, delayed graft function, rejection, and pre-transplant dialysis, but not induction antibody therapy, were associated with hospitalizations for septicemia. Recipients hospitalized for septicemia had a mean patient survival of 9.03 years (95% CI 7.42-10.63) compared to 15.73 years (95% CI 14.77-16.69) for all other recipients. Conclusions: Even in the modern era, renal transplant recipients remain at high risk for hospitalizations for septicemia, which are associated with substantially decreased patient survival. Newly identified risks in this population were female recipients and pre-transplant dialysis. Copyright (C) 2001 S. KargerAG, Basel.

STUDY DESIGN: This was a prospective observational cohort study of women in a randomized clinical trial that included women seeking prenatal care at university medical centers and affiliated clinics and hospitals in 5 US communities. A total of 4589 nulliparous women were recruited between 13 and 21 weeks' gestation. Preeclampsia and pregnancy-associated hypertension were the main outcome measures. RESULTS: Preeclampsia was noted in 326 (7.6%) of the 4314 women with known pregnancy outcomes followed up until greater than or equal to 20 weeks' gestation, and pregnancy-associated hypertension was noted in 747 (17.3%). As previously reported, there was no significant difference in these outcomes between cohorts randomly assigned to supplementation with calcium or placebo. By means of logistic regression a baseline risk model was constructed for preeclampsia and pregnancy-associated hypertension. After adjustment for treatment and clinical site, body mass index >26 kg/m(2) and race were significantly associated with an increased risk of preeclampsia. Body mass index greater than or equal to 35 kg/m(2), race, and never smoking were significantly associated with an increased risk of pregnancy-associated hypertension. After adjustment for baseline risks, none of the 28 nutritional factors analyzed were significantly related to either preeclampsia or pregnancy-associated hypertension. CONCLUSION: We found no evidence in this study for a significant association of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy with any of the 23 nutrients measured.

Our goal was to assess fetal fibronectin assay, Bishop score, and cervical ultrasonography as screening tests to predict which low-risk pregnancies will end in preterm birth. STUDY DESIGN: We performed a secondary analysis of data collected at 22 to 24 weeks' gestation from low-risk subjects enrolled in the Preterm Prediction Study, an observational study of risk factors for preterm birth conducted by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Maternal-Fetal Medicine Units Network. Analysis was limited to primigravid women and to women who did not have a history of preterm birth or spontaneous pregnancy loss at <20 weeks' gestation. Bishop score (4), fetal fibronectin level (greater than or equal to 50 ng/mL), and cervical length (greater than or equal to 25 mm) at 24 weeks' gestation were evaluated alone and in sequence as tests to predict spontaneous delivery before 35 weeks' gestation. RESULTS: Of the 2929 subjects enrolled in the original study, 2197 (1207 primigravid women and 900 low-risk multiparous women) met criteria for this analysis. There were 64 spontaneous births before 35 weeks' gestation (3.04%). All three tests were significantly related to birth before 35 weeks' gestation thigh Bishop score: relative risk, 3.6; 95% confidence interval, 2.1-6.3; fetal fibronectin detection: relative risk, 8.2; 95% confidence interval, 4.8-13.9; short cervical length: relative risk, 6.9; 95% confidence interval, 4.3-11.1). However, the sensitivities of the tests alone were low (23.4% for high Bishop score, 23.4% for fetal fibronectin detection, and 39.1% for short cervix), as were the sensitivities for Bishop score followed by cervical ultrasonography (14.1%) and fetal fibronectin assay followed by cervical scan (15.6%). CONCLUSION: In the setting of low-risk pregnancy, fetal fibronectin assay and cervical ultrasonography have low sensitivity for preterm birth before 35 weeks' gestation. Sequential screening with Bishop score or fetal fibronectin assay followed by cervical ultrasonography further decreased sensitivity to only 15% among low-risk women.

Human T-cell lymphotrophic virus type 1 infection is the established cause of adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma, an aggressive malignancy of CD4+ T-cells, and two non-neoplastic conditions: human T-cell lymphotrophic virus type 1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis and human T-cell lymphotrophic virus type 1 uveitis. Other reported ophthalmic manifestations of human T-cell lymphotrophic virus type I infection include lymphomatous and leukemic infiltrates in the eye and ocular adnexa in patients with adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma, retinal pigmentary degeneration, and neuro-ophthalmic disorders in patients with human T-cell lymphotrophic virus type 1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis and keratoconjunctivitis sicca, episcleritis, and sclerouveitis in asymptomatic human T-cell lymphotrophic virus type I carriers. This report describes the ocular findings in three Jamaican patients with human T-cell lymphotrophic virus type 1 infection and adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma. METHODS: The clinical records of three patients with human T-cell lymphotrophic virus type 1 infection and adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma examined at the National Eye Institute were reviewed. Each patient had one or more complete ophthalmic evaluations. RESULTS: All three patients had corneal abnormalities, including corneal haze and central opacities with thinning; bilateral immunoprotein keratopathy; and peripheral corneal thinning, scarring, and neovascularization. All three patients had elevated serum immunoglobulin levels. CONCLUSIONS: We believe that the novel corneal findings in these patients are most likely a consequence of the hypergammaglobulinemia induced by the human T-cell lymphotrophic virus type 1 infection or the T-cell malignancy.

RESULTS: Of 109 seronegative subjects in 1990, 21 (19.3%) became seropositive by 1997, and 2 (1.5% of previously seronegative patients; 9.5% of those known to have seroconverted) developed ocular toxoplasmosis. Seroconversion occurred more frequently in individuals under 17 years of age (16 of 46 patients, 34.8%) than in those greater than 17 years of age (5 of 63 patients, 7.9%; p = 0.002), Of 131 seropositive individuals who did not have ocular lesions in 1990, 11 (8.3%) had typical toxoplasmic lesions in 1997, Of the 13 individuals with non-specific hyperpigmented small retinal lesions in 1990, 3 (23%) presented with typical lesions in 1997. CONCLUSIONS: Acquired T. gondii infection can result in late development of ocular lesions. Small, non-specific hyperpigmented retinal lesions may represent sites of T. gondii infection in seropositive individuals, (Am J Ophthalmol 2001;131:351-354, (C) 2001 by Elsevier Science Inc.

METHODS: We examined a conjunctival biopsy from a 29-year-old Jamaican man who developed bilateral conjunctival masses. Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma was diagnosed using routine histology, immunohistochemistry, electron microscopy, microdissection, and the polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS: Histopathologic examination revealed a conjunctival lymphoma. Clonality of the T-cell receptor gamma gene and human T-cell lymphotrophic virus gag gene were detected in the malignant cells. The demonstration of the human T-cell lymphotrophic virus gene and the rearrangement of the T-cell receptor gene in this neoplasm provide proof that human T-cell lymphotrophic virus is the cause of this conjunctival T-cell lymphoma, CONCLUSION: Human T-cell lymphotrophic virus is the cause of adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma, an aggressive malignancy of CD4+ lymphocytes.

We describe the first pediatric case of HIV-associated frosted branch angiitis. METHODS: Case report. RESULTS: A 7-year-old HIV-infected male with frosted branch angiitis was refractory to induction doses of intravenous ganciclovir and foscarnet over a 2-month period. Although cytomegalovirus antigenemia resolved, the angiitis only improved after subsequent treatment with systemic corticosteroids, CONCLUSION: Frosted branch angiitis in this patient was not attributed to cytomegalovirus.

RESULTS: Complete regression of the retinitis was obtained with high doses of intravitreal ganciclovir and foscarnet. Visual acuity in the affected eye remained 20/20 throughout the course of therapy. No ganciclovir retinal toxicity was identified. CONCLUSION: High doses of intravitreal ganciclovir in combination with foscarnet can be well tolerated and may be required to successfully control cytomegalovirus retinitis in some patients, (Am J Ophthalmol 2001;131: 396-397, (C) 2001 by Elsevier Science inc, All rights reserved.).

In von Hippel-Lindau (VHL)-defective tumors the cell surface transmembrane carbonic anhydrase (CA) CA9 and CA12 genes are overexpressed because of the absence of pVHL. We hypothesized that these enzymes might be involved in maintaining the extracellular acidic pH in tumors, thereby providing a conducive environment for tumor growth and spread. Using Northern blot analysis and immunostaining with specific antibodies we analyzed the expression of CA9 and CA12 genes and their products in a large sample of cancer cell lines, fresh and archival tumor specimens, and normal human tissues. Expression was also analyzed in cultured cells under hypoxic conditions. Expression of CA IX and CA XII in normal adult tissues was detected only in highly specialized cells and for most tissues their expression did not overlap. Analysis of RNA samples isolated from 87 cancer cell lines and 18 tumors revealed high-to-moderate levels of expression of CA9 and CA12 in multiple cancers. Immunohistochemistry revealed high-to-moderate expression of these enzymes in various normal tissues and multiple common epithelial tumor types. The immunostaining was seen predominantly on the cell surface membrane. The expression of both genes was markedly induced under hypoxic conditions in tumors and cultured tumor cells. We conclude that the cell surface trans-membrane carbonic anhydrases CA IX and CA XII are overexpressed in many tumors suggesting that this is a common feature of cancer cells that may be required for tumor progression. These enzymes may contribute to the tumor microenvironment by maintaining extracellular acidic pH and helping cancer cells grow and metastasize. Our studies show an important causal link between hypoxia, extracellular acidification, and induction or enhanced expression of these enzymes in human tumors.

Using carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) intoxication as a model of acute liver injury, we found that tPA-deficient mice displayed a mild defect in hepatic repair, whereas livers of uPA-deficient mice had a more substantial delay in repair, with injury of centrilobular hepatocytes persisting up to 14 days after CCl4. Notably, functional cooperativity between plasminogen activators was strongly inferred from the profound reparative defect in livers of mice lacking tPA and uPA simultaneously, with persistence of centrilobular injury as far out as 35 days. The defective repair was not because of increased susceptibility of experimental mice to the toxin or to inadequate cellular proliferation. Instead, lack of plasminogen activators led to the accumulation of fibrin and fibronectin within injured areas and poor removal of necrotic cells. These data demonstrate that tPA and uPA play a critical role in hepatic repair via proteolysis of matrix elements and clearance of cellular debris from the field of injury.

This choroidal neovascularization has been associated with the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). In current animal models choroidal neovascularization is induced by subretinal injection of growth factors or vectors encoding growth factors such as VEGF, or by disruption of the Bruch's membrane/retinal pigment epithelium complex with laser treatment. We wished to establish a transgenic murine model of age-related macular degeneration, in which the overexpression of VEGF by the retinal pigment epithelium induces choroidal neovascularization. A construct consisting of a tissue-specific murine retinal pigment epithelium promoter (RPE65 promoter) coupled to murine VEGF(164) cDNA with a rabbit beta -globin-3' UTR was introduced into the genome of albino mice. Transgene mRNA was expressed in the retinal pigment epithelium at all ages peaking at 4 months. The expression of VEGF protein was increased in both the retinal pigment epithelium and choroid. An increase of intravascular adherent leukocytes and vessel leakage was observed. Histopathology revealed intrachoroidal neovascularization that did not penetrate through an intact Bruch's membrane. These results support the hypothesis that additional insults to the integrity of Bruch's membrane are required to induce growth of choroidal vessels into the subretinal space as seen in age-related macular degeneration. This model may be useful to screen for inhibitors of choroidal vessel growth. C1 Childrens Hosp, Surg Res Lab, Boston, MA 02115 USA. Univ Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany.

Compensated cardiac hypertrophy was induced by abdominal aortic constriction for 5 wk followed by administration of ramipril (50 mug.kg(-1).day(-1)) or vehicle for 4 wk. Myocyte cell length and cell width were significantly (P < 0.05) increased in both hypertrophied groups (+/-ramipril). Myocytes were loaded with indo 1, and relaxation was investigated after rapid cooling. Hypertrophied myocyte relaxation in Na+-free/Ca2+-free solution was 63% slower (P < 0.01) and the fall in intracellular Ca2+ was 60% slower (P < 0.05) than the relaxation of control cells. After ramipril treatment both relaxation and the decline in intracellular Ca2+ returned to control rates through improved SR Ca2+-ATPase function. Relaxation in caffeine showed no change after hypertrophy; however, after ramipril treatment the time to 50% relaxation in caffeine decreased by 30% (P < 0.05). The improvement in Ca2+ extrusion across the sarcolemmal membrane occurred independently of changes in Na+/Ca2+ exchanger mRNA and protein abundance. These data demonstrate that ramipril improves both SR-dependent and non-SR-dependent calcium cycling after established cardiac hypertrophy. However, the improvements in function are independent of transcriptional activation and likely to involve altered intracellular ion concentrations.

In this study, we found that UCP2 and UCP3 protein content, determined using Western blotting, was increased by 32 and 48%, respectively, in hyperthyroid rat heart mitochondria. Oligomycin-insensitive respiration rate, a measure of mitochondrial uncoupling, was increased in all mitochondria in the presence of palmitate: 36% in controls and 71 and 100% with 0.8 and 0.9 mM palmitate, respectively, in hyperthyroid rat heart mitochondria. In the isolated working heart, 0.4 mM palmitate significantly lowered cardiac output by 36% and cardiac efficiency by 38% in the hyperthyroid rat heart. Thus increased mitochondrial UCPs in the hyperthyroid rat heart were associated with increased uncoupling and decreased myocardial efficiency in the presence of palmitate. In conclusion, a physiological effect of UCPs on fatty acid oxidation has been found in heart at the mitochondrial and whole organ level. C1 Univ Oxford, Dept Biochem, Oxford OX1 3QU, England.

Therefore, the authors assessed comorbid lifetime and current axis I disorders in 288 patients with bipolar disorder and the relationships of these comorbid disorders to selected demographic and historical illness variables. Method: They evaluated 288 outpatients with bipolar I or II disorder, using structured diagnostic interviews and clinician-administered and self-rated questionnaires to determine the diagnosis of bipolar disorder, comorbid axis I disorder diagnoses, and demographic and historical illness characteristics. Results: One hundred eighty-seven (65%) of the patients with bipolar disorder also met DSM-IV criteria for at least one comorbid lifetime axis I disorder. More patients had comorbid anxiety disorders (N=78, 42%) and substance use disorders (N=78, 42%) than had eating disorders (N=9, 5%). There were no differences in comorbidity between patients with bipolar I and bipolar II disorder. Both lifetime axis I comorbidity and current axis I comorbidity were associated with earlier age at onset of affective symptoms and syndromal bipolar disorder. Current axis I comorbidity was associated with a history of development of both cycle acceleration and more severe episodes over time. Conclusions: Patients with bipolar disorder often have comorbid anxiety, substance use, and, to a lesser extent, eating disorders. Moreover, axis I comorbidity, especially current comorbidity, may be associated with an earlier age at onset and worsening course of bipolar illness. Further research into the prognostic and treatment response implications of axis I comorbidity in bipolar disorder is important and is in progress. C1 Acad Hosp, Utrecht, Netherlands.

Alternatively, traumatic brain injury and schizophrenia could be spuriously associated if those who are predisposed to develop schizophrenia have greater amounts of trauma for other reasons. The authors investigated the relationship between traumatic brain injury and psychiatric diagnoses in a large group of subjects from families with at least two biologically related first-degree relatives with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or bipolar disorder. Method: The Diagnostic Interview for Genetic Studies was used to determine history of traumatic brain injury and diagnosis for 1,275 members of multiplex bipolar disorder pedigrees and 565 members of multiplex schizophrenia pedigrees. Results: Rates of traumatic brain injury were significantly higher for those with a diagnosis of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and depression than for those with no mental illness. However, multivariate analysis of within-pedigree data showed that mental illness was related to traumatic brain injury only in the schizophrenia pedigrees. Independent of diagnoses, family members of those with schizophrenia were more likely to have had traumatic brain injury than were members of the bipolar disorder pedigrees. The members of the schizophrenia pedigrees also failed to show the gender difference for traumatic brain injury (more common in men than in women) that was expected and was present in the bipolar disorder pedigrees. Subjects with a schizophrenia diagnosis who were members of the bipolar disorder pedigrees land thus had less genetic vulnerability to schizophrenia) were less likely to have had traumatic brain injury (4.5%) than were subjects with schizophrenia who were members of the schizophrenia pedigrees land who had greater genetic vulnerability to schizophrenia) (19.6%). Conclusions: Members of the schizophrenia pedigrees, even those without a schizophrenia diagnosis, had greater exposure to traumatic brain injury com pared to members of the bipolar disorder pedigrees. Within the schizophrenia pedigrees, traumatic brain injury was associated with a greater risk of schizophrenia, consistent with synergistic effects between genetic vulnerability for schizophrenia and traumatic brain injury. Posttraumatic-brain-injury schizophrenia in mu[tip[ex schizophrenia pedigrees does not appear to be a phenocopy of the genetic disorder. C1 New York State Psychiat Inst, New York, NY 10032 USA.

This study examined whether US-born people and immigrants 25 years or older differ in their risks of all-cause and cause-specific mortality and whether these differentials, if they exist, vary according to age, sex, and race/ethnicity. Methods. Using data from the National Longitudinal Mortality Study ( 1979-1989), we derived mortality risks of immigrants relative to those of US-born people by using a Cox regression model after adjusting for age, race/ethnicity, marital status, urban/rural residence, education, occupation, and family income. Results. Immigrant men and women had, respectively, an 18% and 13% lower risk of overall mortality than their US-born counterparts. Reduced mortality risks were especially pronounced for younger and for Black and Hispanic immigrants. Immigrants showed significantly lower risks of mortality from cardiovascular diseases, lung and prostate cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, cirrhosis, pneumonia and influenza, unintentional injuries, and suicide but higher risks of mortality from stomach and brain cancer and infectious diseases. Conclusions. Mortality patterns for immigrants and for US-born people vary considerably, with immigrants experiencing lower mortality from several major causes of death. Future research needs to examine the role of sociocultural and behavioral factors in explaining the mortality advantage of immigrants.

METHOD: Primary cultures of HMC were stimulated with human recombinant IL-1 alone or in combination with PTX. Prostaglandin (PG) E, in the medium was measured by radioimmunoassay, cyclooxygenase type 2 (Cox-2) and I kappaB by western analysis, and the activities of two members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family of enzymes, ERK-2 and JNK, by the phosphorylation of appropriate substrates. RESULTS: IL-1 increased PGE, output during an 18-hr long incubation by 21.7-fold (n = 5 experiments). This increase was inhibited by 57% after pretreatment overnight with PTX. IL-1-induced expression of Cox-2 protein was also suppressed to a similar degree in PTX-treated HMC cultures. Degradation of the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB)-inhibiting protein (I kappaB), a critical step in IL-1 signaling to the nucleus, was significantly inhibited by PTX, as was IL-1-induced activation of ERK-2 and JNK. CONCLUSIONS: It is suggested that the occupied IL-1 receptor-generated signal in HMC is transmitted by multiple pathways. One is coupled to a PTX-sensitive G-protein upstream from the MAPK phosphorylation cascade. This, in turn, may interact with another signaling pathway, the activation of NF-KB, via the phosphorylation of the I kappaB kinase complex. C1 NICHD, Perinatol Res Branch, Bethesda, MD USA.

This portion of the p(2)C(2) study tests the hypothesis that infants exposed to, but uninfected by, maternal HIV have normal maximal expiratory flow at functional residual capacity (V'max,(FRC)). We obtained 500 measurements of V'max,(FRC) by rapid thoracic compression in 285 children ages 6-30 mo in five U.S. centers. The data were compared with those from a healthy cohort of children described elsewhere. V'max,(FRC) rose with height in a linear relationship. The slope of the regression line in the exposed infants did not differ statistically from the slope in the comparison group, but the intercept was about 20% lower (p < 0.001). Height and weight were comparable in the two cohorts, and the differences between intercepts persisted after adjusting for birth weight and gestational age. However, maternal HIV infection cannot be assumed to be the cause as the cohorts may have differed in other variables, such as socioeconomic status and frequency of maternal smoking and drug use. Also, measurements varied substantially within and between our five centers, probably in part because of different racial and ethnic distributions. In summary, maternal HIV infection probably has only a modest effect, if any, on maximal expiratory flow at functional residual capacity in uninfected infants.

To assess the impact of HCV on chronic liver disease, we studied the association between HCV, other hepatitis viruses, and cirrhotic liver disease in a cross-sectional, community-based survey of 801 persons aged greater than or equal to 10 years living in a semi-urban, Nile delta village. Residents were systematically sampled using questionnaires, physical examination, abdominal ultrasonography and serologically for antibodies to HCV (confirmed by a third-generation immunoblot assay) and to hepatitis A virus (HAV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), and hepatitis E virus (HEV). The seroprevalence of HCV increased with age from 19% in persons 10-19 years old to about 60% in persons 30 years and older. Although no practices that might facilitate HCV transmission were discovered, the seroprevalence of HCV was significantly associated with remote (> 1 year) histories of schistosomiasis. Sonographic evidence of cirrhosis was present in 3% (95% CI: 1%, 4%) of the population (0.7% of persons under 30 years of age and in 5% of older persons), and was significantly associated with HCV seroreactivity. Our findings are consistent with the hypothesis that past mass parenteral chemotherapy campaigns for schistosomiasis facilitated HCV transmission, and that HCV may be a major cause of the high prevalence of liver cirrhosis in this Nile village.

Alcohol was consumed prior to about half of all homicides and assaults, and nearly 40 percent of state prisoners report committing their current offense under the influence of alcohol. Alcohol abuse cost approximately $13 billion in 1992 non-health related costs. This article seeks to address this burden on the CJS and society. It presents a conceptual framework for explaining the alcohol-crime nexus, reviews empirical evidence of the complex associations between alcohol consumption and crime, and links these with promising intervention strategies to reduce alcohol-related crime.

While primates display the most conspicuous secondary sexual coloration in mammals, little is known about its function. In several types of organisms, variation in colour predicts differences in social status. For this study, I experimentally investigated the relationship between scrotal colour and social status in adult vervet monkeys Cercopithecus aethiops sabaeus, by analysing the social interactions between pairs of unfamiliar males matched for size, but differing in scrotal colour. Differences in scrotal colour predicted eventual social status, as males with a dark scrotum dominated those with a pale scrotum. Experimental modification of scrotal colour failed to confirm that scrotal colour alone signalled social status, but supported the finding that males with scrota of similar colour were more antagonistic towards each other than males differing in colour. These results represent the first experimental evidence for a relationship between colour and social status in primates. (C) 2001 The Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour.

We explore changes in intentional injury morbidity and mortality within the context of other injuries and specific causes. Methods: We performed surveillance of hospital, medical examiner, and vital records for nonfatal injury among adolescents age 10 to 19 years living in the District of Columbia from June 15, 1996, to June 15, 1998, and fatal injury from 1989 to 1998. Results: Over the 2-year study period, 15,190 adolescents were seen for injury, resulting in an event-based rate of 148 injuries per 1,000 adolescents per year; 7% required hospitalization, and 0.8% died. Interpersonal intentional injuries accounted for 25% of all injuries, 45% of hospitalizations, and 85% of injury deaths. Assault morbidity decreased with no change noted for unintentional and self-inflicted injury. Firearm injuries, stabs, and assaults with other objects showed the largest decrease, with no decrease in unarmed assaults. Injury mortality peaked in 1993 and has declined since. Firearms caused 72% to 90% of all injury deaths from 1989 to 1998, most the result of homicide. Conclusion: There has been a decline in intentional injury rates over the study periods related to decreased weapon injury; data suggest a change in the lethality of fighting methods but no change in unarmed fighting behavior.

Methods: Data from the 1997 and 1998 National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care Survey, a national probabilistic sample of 496 US hospital EDs, were combined to examine emergency visits for sports-related injuries. Data from 16,997 sample ED encounter records for injuries that included narrative cause of injury text were analyzed. Narrative text entries were coded to 1 of 84 sport and recreational activity codes. Sample weights were applied to provide annual national estimates. Estimates of sports-related injury visits were based on 1.775 records with an assigned sports-related activity code. Results: There were an average annual estimated 2.6 million emergency visits for sports-related injuries by persons between the ages of 5 and 24 years. They accounted for over 68% of the total 3.7 million sport injuries presented to the ED by persons of all ages. As a proportion of all kinds of injuries presenting to the ED, sports-related injuries accounted for more than one fifth of the visits by persons 5 to 24 years old. The use rate was 33.9 ED visits per 1,000 persons in this age group (95% confidence interval 30.3 to 37.5). The sports-related injury visit rate for male patients was more than double the rate for female patients (48.2 versus 19.2 per 1,000 persons between 5 and 24 years of age). Visits from sports-related activities for this age group were more frequent for basketball and cycling compared with other categories (eg, baseball, skateboarding, gymnastics). Compared with nonsports-related injuries for this age group, sports-related injuries were more likely to be to the brain or skull and upper and lower extremities. Patients with sports-related injuries were more likely to have a diagnosis of fracture and sprain or strain and less likely to have an open wound. They were also more likely to have diagnostic and therapeutic services provided, especially orthopedic care. Conclusion: Sports-related activities by school-age children and young adults produce a significant amount of emergency medical use in the United States. The ED is an appropriate venue to target injury prevention counseling. C1 Ctr Dis Control & Prevent, Natl Ctr Hlth Stat, Hyattsville, MD 20782 USA. NICHHD, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA.

Biochips enable massively parallel molecular analyses to be carried out in a miniaturized format with a very high throughput. This review will highlight applications of the various biochip technologies in cancer research, including analysis of 1) disease predisposition by using single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) microarrays, 2) global gene expression patterns by cDNA microarrays, 3) concentrations, functional activities or interactions of proteins with proteomic biochips, and 4) cell types or tissues as well as clinical endpoints associated with molecular targets by using tissue microarrays, One can predict that individual cancer risks can, in the future, be estimated accurately by a microarray profile of multiple SNPs in critical genes. Diagnostics of cancer will be facilitated by biochip readout of activity levels of thousands of genes and proteins. Biochip diagnostics coupled with informatics solutions will form the basis of individualized treatment decisions for cancer patients. C1 NHGRI, Canc Genet Branch, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA.

With this possibility in mind, we have assessed the ability of different classes of drugs to modulate Pgp function in vitro. Modulation of the Pgp function was studied at in vitro drug concentrations comparable to therapeutic blood levels of the drugs. Materials and Methods: Human blood brain barrier endothelial cells and human colon adenocarcinoma cells were transduced or transfected with the multidrug resistance gene (MDR1) to express Pgp. The uptake of fluorescent substrates of Pgp, Rhodamine 123 and daunorubicin, into these cells and NIH3T3/MDR1 and MDCK/MDR1 cells was measured by flow cytometry and in monolayers in the presence and absence of the different drugs. Results: From the tested six H-1-receptor blockers, seven beta-adrenergic antagonists, four analgesics, ten diuretics and five quinolons, five drugs inhibited Pgp at therapeutic blood levels and two at somewhat higher concentrations. Significant synergism for blocking Pgp could be demonstrated for several drugs. Conclusion: We conclude that administration of several drugs which modulate the function of Pgp to patients may adversely affect the natural function of this efflux pump and malt cause drug-drug interactions induced side effects.

Suppression of polyamine content is currently being utilized as a biomarker in clinical trials for the chemopreventive efficacy of DFMO against colon cancer formation. We have now examined the effects of DFMO on suppression of polyamine content in the HEC assay. The findings indicate 1) the % change in spermidine to spermine ratio and the depletion of putrescine shaw excellent correlation with chemopreventive e efficacy in vitro; 2) the effective concentrations in vitro overlap the plasma concentrations in the clinical trial.

Controls (n=324) were matched to cases (n=282) on age (+/- 5 years), intervention group and study clinic in a 1:1 ratio using incidence density sampling. Genotype was determined by a PCR-based method and logistic regression was used to calculate relative risk estimates. Overall, we found no association between CYP1A1 genotype and lung cancer risk. CYP1A1 genotype did not modify the effect of smoking on lung cancel risk. However; in an examination of subgroups defined by randomized intervention assignment our findings suggest that alpha-tocopherol supplementation may reduce the risk of lung cancer associated with cumulative smoking exposure regardless of CYP1A1 genotype with the greatest effect seen among those with the variant CYP1A1 allele.

It has been well established that the HIV surface envelope glycoprotein gp120 is a molecular target of CV-N, We recently reported that CV-N impaired the binding of virion-associated gp120 to cell-associated CD4 and that CV-N preferentially inhibited binding of the glycosylation-dependent neutralizing monoclonal antibody 2G12 to gp120, However, CV-N did not interfere with the interactions of soluble CD4 (sCD4) with either soluble gp120 (sgp120) or virion-associated gp120. In the present study, we have evaluated the effects of CV-N on the binding of sgp120 to cell-associated CD4 to clarify the experimental basis of the previous binding results, and we further address the detailed mechanism of action of CV-N, Here we present evidence that (i) CV-N impairs both CD4-dependent and CD4-independent binding of sgp120 to the target cells, (ii) CV-N blocks the sCD4-induced binding of sgp120 with cell-associated coreceptor CXCR4, and (iii) CV-N dissociates bound sgp120 from target cells. The results illustrate that the measured effects of CV-N on gp120-CD4 binding interactions depend upon the type of CD4 (soluble or cell associated), but not upon the type of gp120 (soluble or virion associated), employed in the experimental protocol. In addition, this study reinforces that CV-N acts uniquely to prevent essential interactions between the envelope glycoprotein and target cell receptors and further supports the potential broad utility of CV-N as a microbicide to prevent the transmission of HIV and AIDS.

HOMINIS; AIDS PATIENTS; REGIONS; SEQUENCE; DNA; POLYMORPHISMS; PNEUMONIA AB Recent studies have shown that point mutations in the dihydropteroate synthase (DHPS) gene of human-derived Pneumocystis carinii are related to exposure to sulfa drugs and possibly represent the emergence of sulfa resistance. We developed a simple single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) method to permit rapid detection of these mutations. With plasmid constructs, SSCP was able to detect as little as 10% of a minority population. The SSCP assay was compared to direct sequencing for typing the DHPS gene by examining 37 clinical isolates with known DHPS sequences and 41 clinical isolates with unknown DHPS sequences. The typing results were consistent between these two methods for all isolates except 11 in which mutations were detected by SSCP but not by direct sequencing. Sequencing of individual clones after subcloning confirmed the presence of mutations in a minority population as determined by SSCP. SSCP is a very simple and sensitive method for rapid identification of P. camii DHPS mutations. C1 NIH, Dept Crit Care Med, Warren Grant Magnuson Clin Ctr, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA.

Antifungal therapy consisted of POC at 2, 6, and 20 mg/kg of body weight per os; itraconazole (ITC) at 2, 6, and 20 mg/kg per os; or amphotericin B (AMB) at 1 mg/kg intravenously. Rabbits treated with POC showed a significant improvement in survival and significant reductions in pulmonary infarct scores, total lung weights, numbers of pulmonary CFU per gram, numbers of computerized-tomography-monitored pulmonary lesions, and levels of galactomannan antigenemia, AMB and POC had comparable therapeutic efficacies by all parameters. By comparison, animals treated with ITC had no significant changes in outcome variables in comparison to those of untreated controls (UC), Rabbits receiving prophylactic POC at all dosages showed a significant reduction in infarct scores, total lung weights, and organism clearance from lung tissue in comparison to results for UC (P < 0.01). There was dosage-dependent microbiological clearance of A. fumigatus from lung tissue in response to POC, Serum creatinine levels were greater (P < 0.01) in AMB-treated animals than in UC and POC- or ITC-treated rabbits, There was no elevation of serum hepatic transaminase levels in POC- or ITC-treated rabbits. The pharmacokinetics of POC and ITC in plasma demonstrated dose dependency after multiple dosing. The 2-, 6-, and 20-mg/kg dosages of POC maintained plasma drug levels above the MICs for the entire 24-h dosing interval. In summary, POC at greater than or equal to6 mg/kg/day per os generated sustained concentrations in plasma of greater than or equal to1 mug/ml that were as effective in the treatment and prevention of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis as AMB at 1 mg/kg/day and more effective than cyclodextrin ITC at greater than or equal to6 mg/kg/day per os in persistently neutropenic rabbits.

The complexity of these structures provides many opportunities fur impurities, improperly annealed dopants, and stress effects to cause device contamination and failure. Nondestructive metrology techniques that rapidly and noninvasively screen for defects and relate silicon device structure to device performance are of value. We describe the first use of a liquid crystal tunable filter (LCTF) Raman chemical imaging microscope to assess the crystallinity of silicon semiconductor integrated circuits in a rapid and nondestructive manner without the need for sample preparation. The instrument has demonstrated lateral spatial resolving power of better than 250 nm and is equipped with a tunable imaging spectrometer having a spectral bandpass of 7.6 cm(-1). The instrument rapidly produces high-definition Raman images where each image pixel contains a high-quality Raman spectrum. When combined with powerful processing strategies, the Raman chemical imaging system has demonstrated spectral resolving power of 0.03 cm(-1) in a test silicon semiconductor wafer fabricated hy using ion implantation. In addition, we have applied Raman chemical imaging for volumetric Raman imaging by analyzing the surface distribution of polycrystalline thin film structures. The approaches described here for the first time are generally applicable to the nondestructive metrology of silicon and compound semiconductor devices. C1 ChemIcon Inc, Pittsburgh, PA 15208 USA.

We tested these findings in a sample of girls with ADHD. Methods: Anatomic brain magnetic resonance images from 50 girls with ADHD, of severity comparable with that in previously studied boys. and 50 healthy female control subjects, aged 5 to 15 years, were obtained with a 1.5-T scanner with contiguous 2-mm coronal slices and 1.5-mm axial slices. We measured volumes of total cerebrum, frontal lobes, caudate nucleus, globus pallidus, cerebellum, and cerebellar vermis. Behavioral measures included structured psychiatric interviews, parent and teacher ratings, and the Wechsler vocabulary and block design subtests. Results: Total brain volume was smaller in girls with ADHD than in control subjects (effect size, 0.40; P=.05). As in our previous study in boys with ADHD, girls with ADHD had significantly smaller volumes in the posterior-inferior cerebellar vermis (lobules VIII-X; effect size, 0.54; P=.04), even when adjusted for total cerebral Volume and vocabulary score. Patients and controls did not differ in asymmetry in any region. Morphometric differences correlated significantly with several ratings of ADHD severity and were not predicted by past or present stimulant drug exposure. Conclusions: These results confirm previous findings for boys in the posterior-inferior lobules of the cerebellar vermis. The influence of the cerebellar vermis on pre frontal and striatal circuitry should be explored. C1 NIMH, Child Psychiat Branch, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA. CHU Hop Nord, Serv Pediat 1, Amiens, France.

Objective: To determine whether the distinct distribution of cerebral metabolic lesions in patients with the visual variant of AD (AD + VS) represents a true index of neuronal/synaptic dysfunction or is the consequence of brain atrophy. Setting: Government research hospital. Design: Resting cerebral metabolic rate for glucose was measured with positron emission tomography in a cross-sectional study of AD and AD + VS groups and in healthy control subjects. Segmented magnetic resonance im ages were used to correct for brain atrophy. Patients: Patients with AD + VS had prominent visual and visuospatial symptoms. There were 15 patients with AD: 10 with AD + VS, and 37 age-matched control subjects. Main Outcome Measure: Measurement of the rate of cerebral glucose metabolism. Results: Before atrophy correction, the AD + VS group, compared with the control subjects, showed hypometabolism in primary and extrastriate visual areas and in parietal and superior temporal cortical areas. Compared with the AD group, the AD + VS group showed hypometabolism in visual association areas. After atrophy correction, hypometabolism remained significantly different between patients and controls and between the 2 AD groups. Conclusions: The reductions in cerebral hypometabolism represent a true loss of functional activity and are not simply an artifact caused by brain atrophy. The different patterns of hypometabolism indicate the differential development of the lesions between the AD and AD + VS groups. C1 NIA, Neurosci Lab, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA.

Methods: We used a nationally representative cross-sectional survey with an in-person interview and a medical examination, which included measurements of height and weight, daily hours of television watching, weekly participation in physical activity, and a dietary interview. Between 1988 and 1994, the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey collected data on 4069 children. Mexican Americans and non-Hispanic blacks were oversampled to produce reliable estimates for these groups. Results: The prevalence of obesity is lowest among children watching 1 or fewer hours of television a day, and highest among those watching 4 or more hours of tele- vision a day. Girls engaged in less physical activity and consumed fewer joules per day than bays. A higher percentage of non-Hispanic white bays reported participating in physical activity 5 or more times per week than any other race/ethnic and sex group. Television watching was positively associated with obesity among girls, even after controlling for age, race/ethnicity, family income, weekly physical activity, and energy intake. Conclusions: As the prevalence of overweight increases, the need to reduce sedentary behaviors and to promote a more active lifestyle becomes essential. Clinicians and public health interventionists should encourage active lifestyles to balance the energy intake of children.

Design: Prospective, randomized experimental trials. Setting: Basic science research laboratory. Materials: Immunodeficient female NIH-Bg-Nu-Xid mice, aged 3 months. Intervention: The BMSCs were harvested from the long bones of C57B1/6 transgenic mice carrying the type I alpha (1) collagen-chloramphenicol acetyl transferase reporter gene construct; their numbers were expanded in tissue culture. Treated mice received BMSC transplantations around the common carotid artery and internal jugular vein, the aorta and its venae comitantes, or the saphenous artery and vein; control mice received a sham transplant in comparable recipient sites. Main Outcome Measures: Mice underwent harvesting from 4 weeks to 2 years after transplantation. Transplants were evaluated via histological, immunohistochemical, and angiographic analyses. Results: Compared with the controls, which formed no bone, 32 of 37 BMSC-containing transplants formed a vascularized bone island that was perfused specifically and solely by its common carotid artery vascular source. Mature transplants consisted of well-developed lamellar, corticocancellous bone whose osteocytes were derived from the grafted BMSCs; hematopoietic tissue derived from the recipient mouse. Transplants formed as early as 4 weeks and remained stable in size as late as 108 weeks. Conclusions: Bone marrow stromal cells can be used to create vascularized bone flaps in mice; these bone constructs are vascularized by their pedicle and therefore can potentially be transferred to a recipient site using microsurgical techniques.

Patients with Sjogren's syndrome (SS) have characteristic lymphocytic infiltration of the salivary glands with a previously reported predominance of V-kappa-bearing B cells and produce a variety of autoantibodies, indicating that there is a humoral autoimmune component in this syndrome. This study was undertaken to determine whether there are primary deviations of immunoglobulin V gene usage, differences in somatic hypermutation, defects of selection, or indications for perturbances of B cell maturation in SS. Methods. Individual peripheral B cells from patients with SS were analyzed for their Ig V gene usage, and the findings were compared with results in normal controls. Results. Molecular differences, as reflected by findings in the nonproductive V-kappa repertoire of the patients, were identified by an enhanced usage of J(kappa)2 gene segments and a lack of mutational targeting toward RGYW/WRCY sequences compared with controls. A greater usage of V(kappa)1 family members and a reduced frequency of V(kappa)3 gene segments in the productive repertoire suggested differences in selection, possibly driven by antigen. Overall positive selection for mutations, especially for replacements in the complementarity-determining region and for mutations in RGYW/WRCY, similar to that found in controls, was detected. Conclusion. Disturbances of strictly regulated B cell maturation, during early B cell development as indicated by prominent J(kappa)2 gene usage and during germinal center reactions as indicated by a lack of targeting of the hypermutation mechanism, might contribute to the emergence of autoimmunity in SS.

SO BIOLOGICHESKIE MEMBRANY LA Russian DT Article ID SURFACE-CHARGE; MEMBRANES; SYRINGAE; CALCIUM AB Channel-forming activity of syringomycin E produced by phytopathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae was studied. By using planar lipid bilayers modified with syringomycin E, the conductance of single channels formed by antibiotic as a function of the transmembrane potential difference (V), the ionic composition, and pH of the bathing solution was measured for different membranes (charged DOPS/DOPE, and uncharged DPhPC) was measured. For all cases indicated, the current-voltage curves of single channels were superlinear in V and asymmetrical in its sign, the degree of their asymmetry being dependent on variations in the ionic concentration, pH, and the surface membrane charge. The channel conductance did not change when 1 M NaCl was replaced by 1 M RbCl within the range of -250...+250 mV. It suggests the absence of voltage-dependent expanding of channel lumen as a possible reason for the observed superlinearity of current-voltage curves. The equivalent conductance of channels (the ratio of conductance and the electrolyte concentration) in the zero current conditions was practically independent of the NaCl concentration for pH 6 for DOPS/DOPE, pH6. However, the above value was a linear function of the square root concentration of electrolyte for DPhPC. At the same time, the channel conductance for charged bilayers increased monotonically, when pH decreased from 6 to 2, which shows the influence of the surface charge titration. A similar effect was observed when a charge titration was performed with Ca+2-ions. It is shown that the spatially distributed charges stemming from the membrane lipids and the channel-forming molecules are responsible for the observed features of the channels. The estimates based on this model are in agreement with experimental results. C1 Russian Acad Sci, Inst Cytol, St Petersburg 194064, Russia. St Petersburg State Univ, Petergof, Russia.

The variation of the osmotic swelling pressure, shear modulus, and mixing pressure was measured when Na+ ions were substituted by divalent or trivalent cations. Alkali metal salts move freely throughout the entirely network, and alkaline earth metal salts (CaCl2, SrCl2) promote aggregation of polyacrylate chains, but these aggregates are relatively weak. Transition metal salts (CoCl2, NiCl2) form stronger interchain associates. Rare earth cations (La3+ and Ce3+) bind practically irreversibly to the polymer. Experimental data indicate that transition metal cations modify both the elastic and mixing components of the free energy, while alkaline earth metal cations affect primarily the mixing term. The behavior of freely swollen gels was compared with similar gels subjected to uniaxial compression. In uniaxially compressed gels, volume transition occurs at lower cation concentrations than in the corresponding undeformed gels. The shift of the transition point increases with the deformation ratio and is larger for Co2+ than for Ca2+.

The approach involves conditioning on sufficient statistics for the unobservable true covariates that are treated as fixed unknown parameters. For the case of Gaussian nondifferential measurement error, we derive a set of unbiased score equations that can then be solved to estimate the log odds ratio parameters of interest. The procedure successfully removes the bias in naive estimates, and standard error estimates are obtained by resampling methods. We present an example of the procedure applied to data from a matched case-control study of prostate cancer and serum hormone levels, and we compare its performance to that of regression calibration procedures.

To estimate penetrance of the mutation, we consider a marginal likelihood approach that is computationally simple to implement, more flexible than the original analytic approach proposed by Wacholder et al.

We assume that there are distinct sets of cluster-level latent variables related to the primary outcomes and to the censoring process, and we account for dependency between these latent variables through a hierarchical model. A linear model is used to relate covariates and latent variables to the primary outcomes for each subunit. A generalized linear model accounts for covariate and latent variable effects on the probability of censoring for subunits within each cluster. The model accounts for correlation within clusters and within subunits through a flexible factor analytic framework that allows multiple latent variables and covariate effects on the latent variables. The structure of the model facilitates implementation of Markov chain Monte Carlo methods for posterior estimation. Data from a spermatotoxicity study are analyzed to illustrate the proposed approach. C1 NIEHS, Biostat Branch, Res Triangle Pk, NC 27709 USA.

Although the extra nucleotides could be dA, dC, dG, or dT residues, the extra nucleotides an the cDNAs usually consisted of a single dr residue. Experiments performed with DNA/RNA duplexes indicated that reverse transcriptase has an associated terminal nucleotidyl transferase (TdT)-like activity, which can add nontemplated nucleotides to the 3' ends of DNA, and that reverse transcriptase was responsible for the presence of the extra nucleotides detected on the 5'-RACE cDNAs. The TdT-like activity of reverse transcription was specific for double-stranded substrates (i.e., DNA/DNA or DNA/RNA duplexes) and was active over a wide range of temperatures and enzyme concentrations. Both commercially available Moloney murine leukemia virus and avian myeloblastosis virus reverse transcriptases contained the TdT-like activity. This work implies that 5'-RACE and primer extension assays must be used carefully in determining the terminal sequences of nucleic acids because, under standard reaction conditions, reverse transcriptase can add nontemplated nucleotides ra the 3' ends of cDNAs following template-directed synthesis.

Wild-type Syk and chimeric Syk molecules with the c-Src myristylation sequence at the amino terminus were expressed in a Syk-negative mast cell line. Chimeric Syk with the myristylation sequence was membrane associated, and a small fraction was constitutively colocalized with Fc epsilon RI, Lyn, and LAT (linker for T-cell activation) in the glycolipid-enriched microdomains or rafts. However, even under these conditions, the tyrosine phosphorylation of Syk and the downstream propagation of signals required FceRI aggregation. This chimeric Syk was less active than wild-type Syk in Fc epsilon RI-mediated signal transduction. In contrast, a truncated membrane associated form of Syk that lacked the SH2 domains was not tyrosine phosphorylated by receptor aggregation and failed to transduce intracellular signals. These findings suggest that SH2 domain-mediated membrane translocation of Syk is essential for the FceRI-mediated activation of Syk for downstream signaling events leading to histamine release. Furthermore, the localization of Syk in glycolipid-enriched microdomains by itself is not enough to generate or enhance signaling events.(Blood. 2001;97:1352-1359) (C) 2001 by The American Society of Hematology.

This study examined the properties of thymocytes that emigrate from cultured thymic lobes in organ culture. Under these conditions, thymic emigrants displayed the expected;phenotype, that of mature thymocytes expressing high levels of T-cell receptor (TCR-alpha beta) and either CD4 or CD8, and were observed to emigrate within 24 hours of positive selection. Emigration was inhibited by cytochalasin D, pertussis toxin, or Clostridium difficile toxin B, implicating an active motility process. Most of the surface markers on alpha beta -thymic emigrants (Thy1, CD44, CD69, CD25, leukocyte functional antigen-1, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, alpha (4)-integrin, alpha (5)- integrin, CD45, and CD28) were expressed at a surface density similar to that on mature intrathymic cells and peripheral splenic T cells. Heterogeneous expression of L-selectin and heat stable antigen (HSA) suggested that subsets emerge from the thymus with a commitment to different migration patterns. The only marker on emigrants not found on either intrathymic cells or mature spleen T cells was CTLA-4, which could dampen the response of emigrants to peripheral antigens. Antigen responsiveness measured in vitro against allogeneic dendritic cells showed a proliferative response comparable to that of splenic T cells. In vivo, however, thymic emigrants failed to induce an acute graft-versus-host reaction in allogeneic severe combined immunodeficiency recipients. This suggests that a mechanism operating in vivo, perhaps tolerance or migration pattern, attenuates the response of emigrants against antigens that did not induce their deletion in the thymus.

To study whether CI-conductance block might prevent dehydration of sickle RBCs, a novel CI-conductance inhibitor (NS3623) was characterized in vitro using RBCs from healthy donors and sickle cell patients and in vivo using normal mice and a transgenic mouse model of sickle cell disease (SAD mice). In vitro, NS3623 reversibly blocked human RBC CI conductance (g(Cl)) with an IC50 value of 210 nmol/L and a maximal block of 95%. In vivo, NS3623 inhibited RBC g(CI) after oral administration to normal mice (ED50 = 25 mg/kg). Although g(CI), at a single dose of 100 mg/kg, was still 70% inhibited 5 hours after dosing, the inhibition disappeared after 24 hours. Repeated administration of 100 mg/kg twice a day for 10 days caused no adverse effects; therefore, this regimen was chosen as the highest dosing for the SAD mice. SAD mice were treated for 3 weeks with 2 daily administrations of 10, 35, and 100 mg/kg NS3623, respectively. The hematocrit increased, and the mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration decreased in all groups with a concomitant increase in the intracellular cation content.

These pathways are interregulated such that peripheral T-cell expansion is increased in thymectomized versus thymus-bearing hosts after bone marrow transplantation (BMT). This study shows that this interregulation is due to competition between progeny of these 2 pathways because depletion of thymic progeny leads to increased peripheral expansion in thymus-bearing hosts. To test the hypothesis that competition for growth factors modulates the magnitude of antigen-driven peripheral expansion during immune reconstitution in vivo, a variety of T-cell active cytokines were administered after BMT. Of the cytokines (interleukins) tested (IL-3, IL-12, IL-6, IL-2, and IL-7), IL-2 modestly increased peripheral expansion in the face of increasing numbers of thymic emigrants, whereas IL-7 potently accomplished this. This report also demonstrates that the beneficial effect of IL-7 on immune reconstitution is related to both increases in thymopoiesis as well as a direct increase in the magnitude of antigen-driven peripheral expansion. Therefore, the administration of exogenous IL-7, and to a lesser extent IL-2, abrogates the down-regulation in antigen-driven peripheral expansion that occurs in thymus-bearing hosts after BMT. These results suggest that one mechanism by which T-cell-depleted hosts may support antigen-driven T cell expansion in vivo is via an increased availability of T-cell-active cytokines to support clonal expansion.

Normal c-Myb is rapidly degraded by the ubiquitin-26S proteasome pathway, and instability determinants have been localized within the negative regulatory domain in the carboxyl terminus. Our recent work has shown that, in myeloid cells, inhibition of cellular Ser/Thr protein phosphatases with okadaic acid (OA) causes a rapid increase in c-Myb phosphorylation and 26S proteasome-dependent breakdown [J. Bies, S. Feikova, D. P. Bottaro, and L. Wolff (2000) Oncogene 19, 2846-2854]. Furthermore, phosphoamino acid analyses revealed that the increase in phosphorylation was mainly on threonine residues. Here we investigated the ability of c-Myb to bind DNA following phosphorylation. Our results suggest that the hyperphosphorylated form of c-Myb binds to DNA with affinity very similar to the hypophosphorylated form. Therefore, the increased proteolytic instability of the former cannot be explained by a difference in DNA-binding capacity. Conformational changes in the carboxyl terminus were proposed previously to be a consequence of phosphorylation because we observed phosphorylation-induced alterations in gel electrophoresis mobilities and alterations in recognition by specific monoclonal antibodies. Further support for this notion has come from this study, in which we have detected new degradation products in electrophoretic mobility shift assays, as well as an increased rate of in vitro proteolysis, following OA treatment. We speculate that these alterations in the conformation of the negative regulatory domain expose epitopes on the surface of c-Myb, which in turn can serve as recognition signal(s) for ubiquitin-26S proteasome proteolytic machinery.

Our recent focus has been the determination of genes regulated by this transcription factor that may be involved in transformation. Data presented here, using conditional expression of Myb in myeloid cells, show that c-M[yb directly transactivates the endogenous c-myc and Bcl-2 genes, which explains at least in part how c-Myb regulates proliferation and survival. In addition, c-Myb prevents expression at the RNA level of the tumor suppressor INK4b gene. This gene encodes a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, p15(INK4b), that is normally upregulated at the mRNA level during myeloid differentiation and promotes growth arrest. The MMLs are generally characterized as differentiated monocytic tumors and possess the phenotype that is normally associated with p15(INK4b) expression, c-Myb inhibits expression of this gene, however, and therefore acts to promote a pathway which is abnormal in mature cells. This activity of c-Myb collaborates with its maintenance of c-myc expression to promote growth. (C) 2001 Academic Press. C1 NCI, Cellular Oncol Lab, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA.

Although many studies have investigated bone loss due to surgically induced estrogen depletion, little is known regarding normal age-related changes in bone mass in animal models, We used dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to measure bone mineral density (BMD), bone mineral content (BMC), and projected area (PA) at four skeletal sites over 4 years in 20 premenopausal female (8-23 years) and 29 male (8-27 years) rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta). Forearm BMD declined with age in both male and female monkeys, Lean mass was positively associated with BMD at all sites in males acid with the distal radius in females, Serum osteocalcin declined and urinary cross-links increased with age in males but not females. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations decreased with ape in females, and a similar trend was observed in males. In conclusion, an age-related decline in forearm BMD was observed in male and female rhesus monkeys, Total body BMC declined over time in older females, with a similar trend in males. Changes in markers of bone turnover with age were also observed in male monkeys. The results of this longitudinal study suggest that the rhesus monkey is a potential model for age-related changes in the human skeleton. (Bone 28:395-302; 2001) (C) 2001 by Elsevier Science Inc.

Twenty isolates from 15 patients were Streptococcus mitis, Most viridans streptococci were resistant to norfloxacin, used routinely for prophylaxis, Comparison of the 19 patients with viridans streptococcal bacteremia with a contemporaneous group of 23 allogeneic HSCT recipients with fever and neutropenia but no identified focus of infection found that patients with viridans streptococcal bacteremia were more likely to have severe intraoral pathology while neutropenic (26% vs 0%) and slightly shorter interval between the last dental procedure and the onset of neutropenia (11 vs 14 days). Poor underlying dental health and the use of norfloxacin thus appear to predispose to viridans streptococcal bacteremia. C1 NIAID, Clin Invest Lab, Clin Mycol Sect, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA.

Methods Twenty-one healthy subjects were enrolled and 13 completed the study (180 days). Subjects received either 500 mg of racemic halofantrine once daily in the fasted state for 42 days, or placebo, and then halofantrine washout was documented for the following 138 days. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic (ECG QTc) measurements were obtained. Results Mean accumulation half-times (days) for halofantrine were: 7.0 +/- 4.8 [(+)- halofantrine] and 7.3 +/- 4.8 [(-)-halofantrine]. Mean steady-state concentrations were. 97.6 +/- 52.0 ng ml(-1) [( +)-halofantrine] and 48.5 +/- 20.8 [(-)-halofantrine]. Steady-state oral clearance was: 139 +/- 73 l h(-1) [(+)-halofantrine] and 265 +/- 135 l h(-1) [(-)-halofantrine]. Peak plasma concentrations of both (+)- and (-)-halofantrine were attained at 6 h and maximal ECG QTc prolongation was at 4-8 h following drug administration. Fourteen of 16 subjects who received active drug had ECG QTc prolongation that was positively correlated with both (+)- and (-)-halofantrine concentration. The five subjects who received placebo had no demonstrable change in ECG QTc throughout the study. Conclusions Halofantrine accumulates extensively and shows high intersubject pharmacokinetic variability, is associated with concentration-related ECG QTc prolongation in healthy subjects, and is clinically well tolerated in this subject group.

The increased lymphoid content of peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplants may increase the incidence and severity of this event. We observed massive immune haemolysis in 3 out of 10 consecutive patients undergoing HLA-identical, related-donor PBSC transplants with minor ABO incompatibility. Non-ablative conditioning had been given in 9 of these 10 cases, including two with haemolysis. Cyclosporin alone was used as prophylaxis against graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD). Catastrophic haemolysis of 78% of the circulating red cell mass led to anoxic death in the first case seen, but severe consequences were avoided by early, vigorous donor-compatible red cell transfusions in the subsequent two cases, Haemolysis began 7-11 d after PBSC infusion and all patients with haemolysis had a positive direct antiglobulin test (DAT), with eluate reactivity against the relevant recipient antigen. However, neither the intensity of the DAT the donor isohaemagglutinin titre, nor other factors could reliably be used to predict the occurrence of haemolysis. Our data indicate that haemolysis may be frequent and severe after transplantation of minor ABO-incompatible PBSCs when utilizing cyclosporin alone to prevent GVHD. Meticulous clinical monitoring and early, vigorous donor-compatible red cell transfusions should be practiced in all instances.

In this study, we compared the effects of NO on platelets from normal individuals and from patients with SCD. Three NO donors were used to deliver NO to platelets: sodium 2-(N, N-diethylamino)-diazenolate-2-oxide (DEANO), S-nitrosocysteine (CysNO) and sodium trioxdintrate (OXINO or Angeli's salt). ADP-induced platelet aggregation, CD62P expression, PAC-1 binding and calcium elevation were evaluated in paired studies of normal and SCD subjects. DEANO significantly reduced aggregation in SCD platelets compared with normal platelets. DEANO similarly reduced the extent of CD62P expression in SCD platelets. All NO donors reduced PAC-1 binding, but there were no significant differences between platelets from normal or SCD subjects. Calcium elevation, as induced by ADP, was not altered by the presence of NO donors. However, when platelets were stimulated with thrombin, there was an increased initial response of SCD platelets compared with normal platelets. Taken together, these data suggest that the mode of NO delivery to platelets may produce various physiological responses and the optimization of NO delivery may contribute to reducing platelet aggregation in sickle cell disease.

With stronger coupling, the coupled system reverts to bursting can be recovered by introducing heterogeneity in the model parameters. For a two-cell system, we explain the phenomenon with bifurcation analysis. For larger clusters of coupled cells, we demonstrate by numerical simulation that the phenomenon carries over. In addition, we use a perturbation analysis to deduce the dependence of the heterogeneity parameter used in the bifurcation analysis on the original heterogeneity parameters and the coupling strength. Implications of the phenomenon of emergent bursting are discussed in the context of electrical activity in pancreatic beta cells. (C) 2001 Society for Mathematical Biology.

As part of a pilot trial in which TG was used in place of MP, we studied the plasma pharmacokinetics of oral TG and measured steady-state plasma and CSF TG concentrations during a continuous intravenous infusion (CIVI) in children with newly diagnosed standard-risk ALL. Methods: Nine plasma samples were collected after each patient's first 60 mg/m(2) oral TG dose during maintenance. CIVI TG (20 mg/m(2)/h over 24 h) was administered during the consolidation phase of therapy, and simultaneous plasma and CSF samples were collected near the end of the infusion. TG was measured by reverse-phase HPLC with ultraviolet detection. Erythrocyte TG nucleotide (TGN) concentrations were measured 7 days after a course of CIVI TG and prior to the start of each maintenance cycle. Results: After oral TG (n = 35), the mean (+/- SD) peak plasma concentration was 0.46+/-0.68 muM and the AUC ranged from 0.18 to 9.5 muM . h (mean 1.5 muM. h). Mean steady-state plasma and CSF TG concentrations during CIVI (n=33) were 2.7 and 0.5 muM, respectively. The mean (+/-SD) TG clearance was 935+/-463 ml/min per m(2). Plasma TG concentrations did not correlate with erythrocyte TGN concentrations after oral or CIVI TG. The 8-OH-TG metabolite was detected in plasma and CSF, Conclusions: TG concentrations that are cytotoxic to human leukemia cell lines can be achieved in plasma after a 60 mg/m(2) oral dose of TG and in plasma and CSF during CIVI of TG.

Methods: The antiproliferative activity of WMC26 was examined in detail by a 4-day MTT assay, cell counting, BrdU incorporation and a two-color LIVE/DEAD assay. To detect apoptosis a number of established techniques were used, including gel electrophoresis, flow cytometry, and confocal laser microscopy of treated cells. The activity of senescence-associated beta -galactosidase in treated cells was also analyzed. Results: WMC26, at physiological concentrations, induced complete and longlasting growth arrest of HCT116 cells in culture but did not trigger cell death. The growth-arrested cells (blocked at G(1) and G(2)/M cell cycle checkpoints) did not synthesize DNA but were metabolically active and had intact plasma membranes. Although they resembled the senescence-like phenotype reported to be induced by treatment with some antitumor agents, the cells did not express senescence-associated P-galactosidase, an indicator of the senescence-like state. Treatment of WMC26 growth-arrested cells with 1 muM UCN-01, an abrogator of the G(2)/M checkpoint, caused a very rapid (1 h) change in morphology and cell death within 72 h. Conclusions: BIAs do not induce apoptosis in sensitive colon tumor cells. They are highly cytostatic but only marginally toxic to the cells even at concentrations 100-fold higher than those sufficient for complete growth arrest. In this respect WMC26 differs from some other DNA-interacting antitumor agents that produce cell growth arrest at low concentrations but are toxic at higher doses. The complete growth arrest induced by WMC26 in colon cancer cells sensitized them to apoptotic death induced by UCN-01. This finding suggests that a combination of WMC26 and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors may be an attractive treatment method for colon cancer that utilizes the highly tumor-selective activity of WMC26.

Its pharmacological effects in humans have been associated with unusual toxicity affecting the fingers and toes. This study was designed to test intermittent dosing schedules using two dosage levels: 500 mg as a single weekly dose and 200 mg as a biweekly dose, each for 30 days. Fifteen men and women were studied in each dosing group. All were heavy smokers considered to be at high risk for developing lung cancer, Plasma, buccal mucosa cell, and lipoprotein concentrations were measured at different intervals corresponding to the time period when most of the adverse effects occur, No serious toxicities were observed using these doses and schedules, The plasma and buccal mucosa cell concentrations of Oltipraz showed substantial interindividual variations at each sampling. Some subjects had no detectable plasma or buccal mucosal cell Oltipraz concentrations. The distribution of Oltipraz incorporation into the lipid fractions and albumin was changed by the administration of different schedules of Oltipraz, The results of this study suggest that the intermittent dosing is well tolerated and does not result in steady state in plasma or buccal mucosa cells. The variation and lack of detectable Oltipraz concentration in plasma, buccal mucosa cells, and lipids may affect both the toxicity and the pharmacological effects when these doses and schedules are used.

We examined the association of polymorphisms in XRCC1 (codon 194 Arg --> Trp and codon 399 Arg --> Gln) and breast cancer in the Carolina Breast Cancer Study, a population-based case-control study in North Carolina. No association was observed between XRCC1 codon 194 genotype and breast cancer, and odds ratios (ORs) were not modified by smoking or radiation exposure. A positive association for XRCC1 codon 399 Arg/Gln or Gln/Gln genotypes compared with Arg/Arg was found among African Americans (253 cases, 266 controls; OR = 1,7, 95% confidence interval, 1,1-2,4) but not whites (386 cases, 381 controls; OR = 1,0, 95% confidence interval, 0,8-1,4), Among African-American women, ORs for the duration of smoking were elevated among women with XRCC1 codon 399 Arg/Arg genotype (trend test; P < 0.001) but not Arg/Gln or Gln/Gln (P = 0,23), There was no difference in OR for smoking according to XRCC1 codon 399 genotype in white women. ORs for occupational exposure to ionizing radiation were stronger for African-American and white women with codon 399 Arg/Arg genotype, High-dose radiation to the chest was more strongly associated with breast cancer among white women with XRCC1 codon 399 Arg/Arg genotype, Our results suggest that XRRC1 codon 399 genotype may influence breast cancer risk, perhaps by modifying the effects of environmental exposures. However, interpretation of our results is Limited by incomplete knowledge regarding the biological function of XRCC1 alleles.

Unfortunately, it is difficult to prospectively identify, using objective criteria, patients who are at high risk of recurrence and might benefit from additional treatment. We conducted a multi-institutional, collaborative case-control study to identify nuclear morphometric features that would be useful for identifying women with DCIS at the highest risk of recurrence, Tissue sections of archival breast tissue of 29 women with recurrent and 73 matched women with nonrecurrent DCIS were stained for DNA, and nuclei in the DCIS lesions were evaluated by image analysis. A dear correlation between mean fractal2_area (FA2) and nuclear grade was observed (P < 0,001), allowing an objective determination of nuclear grade. Several nuclear morphometric features, including mean and variance of variation of radius, mean area, mean and variance of frequency of high boundary harmonics (FQH), and variance in sphericity, were found to be useful in discriminating recurrent from nonrecurrent DCIS subjects. However, the nuclear features associated with recurrence differed between high- and low-grade lesions. For Lesions with high FA2 (nuclear grade 3), mean variation of radius, mean FQH, and mean area alone yielded recurrence odds ratios of 4.55 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0,45-45,961, 3.86 (95% CI, 0,88-16,98), 2.90 (95% CI, 0,31-27,2), respectively. Using a summed feature model, high-FA2 lesions showing three poor prognostic features had an odds ratio of 15.63 (95% CI, 1,22-200), compared with those with zero or one poor prognostic feature. Lesions with low mean FA2 (nuclear grade I or 2) showing high variances in sphericity and FQH had an odds ratio of 7.71 (95% CI, 1,77-33,60), Addition of other features did not enhance the odds ratio or its significance. These results suggest that nuclear image analysis of I)CIS lesions may provide an adjunctive tool to conventional pathological analysis, both for the objective assessment of nuclear grade and for the identification of features that predict patient outcome.

Subjects completed a questionnaire, were given dextromethorphan, and contributed a urine and blood sample. The CYP2D6 phenotype (based on a determination of dextromethorphan and metabolites in an aliquot of overnight urine) and genotype (based on characterization of CYP2D6 variant alleles by a PCR-based method on a subset) were determined. Seventeen poor metabolizers (6.5%) were observed among 261 phenotyped smokers. Nicotine and it chief metabolites, cotinine and trans-3'-hydroxycotinine were measured in the urine and adjusted for pH. All of the nicotine metabolite levels were significantly related to usual and recent smoking. Neither levels of smoking nor nicotine metabolites overall exhibited a relationship to the CYP2D6-deficient metabolizer phenotype, The ratio of nicotine:cotinine + trans-3'-hydroxycotinine, stratified by time since the last cigarette, was unrelated to gender, age, education, race (white/African American), recent alcohol or caffeine consumption, or smoking practices. Subjects in either the Lowest quintile or decile metabolic ratio (ultrametabolizers) exhibited a significantly lower nicotine:cotinine + trans-3'-hydroxycotinine ratio after adjustment for recent smoking, pH, and other factors. These data suggest that the polymorphic CYP2D6 gene is not a major contributor to nicotine metabolism in tobacco smokers but may influence the disposition of nicotine in the small subset of the population who are CYP2D6 ultrametabolizers.

Among the 29,133 men aged 50-69 years in the Alpha-Tocopherol, Beta-Carotene Cancer Prevention study, 152 colon and 104 rectal cancers were documented during up to 12 years of follow-up, For colon cancer, compared with sedentary workers, men in light occupational activity had a relative risk (RR) of 0.60 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0,34-1,041, whereas those in moderate/heavy activity had an RR of 0.45 (CI, 0.26-0.78; P for trend, 0.003), Subsite analysis revealed a significant association for moderate/heavy occupational activity in the distal colon (RR, 0.21; CI, 0.09-0.51) but not in the proximal colon ((RR, 0.87; CI, 0,40-1,92), There was no significant association between leisure activity and colon cancer (active versus sedentary; RR, 0.82; CI, 0.59-1.13); however, the strongest inverse association was found among those most active in both work and leisure (RR, 0.33; CI, 0,16-0,71), For rectal cancer, there were risk reductions for those in Light (RR, 0.71; CI, 0.36-1.37) and moderate/heavy occupational activity (RR, 0.50; CI, 0.26-0.97; P for trend, 0,04), and no association for leisure activity.

These recombinants were capable of transducing high-level transgene expression to a wide variety of cell lines in vitro. Three independent methods were utilized to monitor cell growth following transduction with these recombinants. High-level expression of either the human or mouse wild-type BRCA1 protein was incompatible with maximal levels of cell growth. AdBRCA1 transduction inhibited the outgrowth of several human breast and ovarian cell lines in colony formation assays. Flow cytometric analysis revealed an accumulation of the transduced cells in the G(0)/G(1) phase of the cell cycle. This BRCA1-mediated accumulation of cells in G(0)/G(1) was accompanied by an increase in the cellular level of hypophosphorylated pRB. Ad mutant BRCA1 t340, C61G, and 1853Stop viruses were impaired, to varying degrees, in their ability to transduce a growth-arrested state to the target cells. Using these same three criteria, overexpression of murine Brca1 by AdBrca1 was also capable of transducing a growth-arrested state to human cells. Deletion of the C-terminus of Brca1 diminished this activity. This panel of adenoviruses may be useful reagents as part of an approach to understand the function of BRCA1/Brca1 in normal breast and ovary and he Ip to define the tu mor suppressor defect (s) conferred by clinical BRCA1 mutations in breast and ovarian cell tumorigenesis.

In the conditionally immortalized murine colonic epithelial cell line YAMC. where the p53 phenotype can be modulated by temperature, proline oxidase expression and ROS production could only be induced when the cells were phenotypically p53-positive. To confirm that the observed ROS production was not secondary to some other effect of p53, we also conditionally expressed POX in a p53-negative colon cancer line, Again, we found a proline-dependent ROS increase with POX expression, We hypothesize that proline oxidation supports the generation of KOS by donating reducing potential to an electron transport chain altered either by p53-dependent mechanisms or by overexpression of POX.

The RC0.1 and RC1 cells have high cross-resistance to CPT derivatives including SN-38 and topotecan, but are not cross-resistant to the non-top1 inhibitors etoposide, doxorubicin, and vincristine. Although the top1 protein levels were not decreased in the resistant cells compared with the parental cells, CPT-induced DNA cleavage was markedly reduced in the RC0.1 and RC1 nuclear extracts. The resistant-cell-line nuclear extracts also demonstrated top1 catalytic activity and resistance to CPT, in in vitro assays. Reverse transcription-PCR products from the resistant cell lines were sequenced, and revealed a point mutation resulting in a R364H mutation in the top1 of both RC0.1 and RC1, No wild-type top1 RNA or genomic DNA was detected in the resistant cell lines. Using a purified recombinant R364H top1, we found that the R364H mutant top1 was CPT resistant and fully active. In the published top1 crystal structure, the R364H mutation is close to the catalytic tyrosine and other well-known mutations leading to CPT resistance.

Activation of beta -catenin, as judged by the presence of mutations and/or nuclear translocation of the protein, was most frequent in liver tumors from c-myc (4/17; 23.5%) and c-myc/TGF-beta1 (6/18; 33.3%) transgenic mice. However, it was very rare in faster growing and histologically more aggressive HCCs developed in c-myc/TGF-alpha mice (1/20; 5%). Administration of diethylnitrosamine, phenobarbital, or 2-amino-3,8-diethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline did not significantly affect the occurrence of beta -catenin mutations. Notably, nuclear accumulation of beta -catenin was observed only in adenomas and highly differentiated carcinomas with eosinophilic phenotype, Furthermore, preneoplastic lesions with eosinophilic phenotype frequently displayed focal nuclear positivity, colocalized with areas of high proliferation. In contrast, basophilic and clear-cell foci, as well as pseudo-glandular and poorly differentiated HCCs, exhibited a normal or reduced membranous immunoreactivity for beta -catenin, These studies suggest that nuclear translocation of beta -catenin and activation of Wingless/Wnt signaling mag represent an early event in liver carcinogenesis, providing a growth advantage in a subset of hepatic tumors with a more differentiated phenotype.

Prostate tumor progression is characterized by changes in cellular architecture, glandular organization, and genomic composition. These features are reflected in the Gleason grade of the tumor and in the development of aneuploidy, Cellular architecture and genomic stability are controlled in part by centrosomes, organelles that organize microtubule arrays including mitotic spindles. Here we demonstrate that centrosomes are structurally and numerically abnormal in the majority of prostate carcinomas. Centrosome abnormalities increase with increasing Gleason grade and with increasing levels of genomic instability. Selective induction of centrosome abnormalities by elevating levels of the centrosome protein pericentrin in prostate epithelial cell lines reproduces many of the phenotypic characteristics of high-grade prostate carcinoma. Cells that transiently or permanently express pericentrin exhibit severe centrosome and spindle defects, cellular disorganization, genomic instability, and enhanced growth in soft agar, On the basis of these observations, we propose a model in which centrosome dysfunction contributes to the progressive loss of cellular and glandular architecture and increasing genomic instability that accompany prostate cancer progression, dissemination, and lethality.

Both epidemiological studies and supplementation trials have supported its efficacy in humans. However, the mechanism by which selenium suppresses tumor development remains unknown. Selenium is present in known human selenoproteins as the amino acid selenocysteine (Sec), Sec is inserted cotranslationally in response to UGA codons within selenoprotein mRNAs in a process requiring a sequence within the 3'-untranslated region (UTR), referred to as a Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element. Recently, a human M-r 15,000 selenoprotein (Sep15) was identified that contains an in-frame UGA codon and a SECIS element in the 3'-UTR, Examination of the available cDNA sequences for this protein revealed two polymorphisms located at position 811 (C/T) and at position 1125 (G/A) located within the 3'-UTR, Here, we demonstrate significant differences in Sep15 allele frequencies by ethnicity and that the identity of the nucleotides at the polymorphic sites influences SECIS function in a selenium-dependent manner. This, together with genetic data indicating loss of heterozygosity at the Sep15 locus in certain human tumor types. suggests that Sep15 may be involved in cancer development. risk, or both.

The current study investigated the possible contribution of DNA methylation to the regulation of Nm23-H1 expression, based on the observation that two CpG. islands are present in its promoter. 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-CdR), a DNA methylation inhibitor, increased the Nm23-H1 expression of 5 of 11 human breast carcinoma cell lines in vitro, including 3 of 3 metastatically competent lines. Increased Nm23-H1 expression was accompanied by a reduction in motility in vitro, with minimal effect on proliferation. Both increased Nm23-H1 expression and decreased motility were observed using low (75 nM) concentrations of 5-Aza-CdR, Array analysis of MDA-MB-231 breast carcinoma cells treated with 5-Aza-CdR confirmed the elevation of nm23-H1 mRNA, whereas relatively few other genes exhibited altered expression, Bisulfite sequencing of the two CpG islands in a panel of cell lines and in 20 infiltrating ductal carcinomas revealed that one island (-3090 bp to -3922 bp) exhibited infrequent differential methylation. The data indicate that DNA methylation inhibitors ran directly or indirectly cause both elevation of Nm23-H1 expression and decreased function in one aspect of metastasis, motility.

No study has explored so far the effect of cigarette smoke on apoptosis in vivo. We evaluated modulation of apoptosis in cells of the respiratory tract of smoke-exposed Sprague-Dawley rats both by morphological analysis and TUNEL method. In a first study, exposure of rats to mainstream cigarette smoke for either 18 or 100 consecutive days produced a significant and time-dependent increase in the proportion of apoptotic cells in the bronchial and bronchiolar epithelium. Oral N-acetylcysteine did not affect the background frequency of apoptosis but significantly and sharply decreased smoke-induced apoptosis, In a second study, exposure of rats to a mixture of sidestream and mainstream smoke for 28 consecutive days resulted in a >10-fold increase in the frequency of pulmonary alveolar macrophages undergoing apoptosis, Dietary administration of either 5,6-benzoflavone, 1,2-dithiole-3-thione or oltipraz did not affect the frequency of smoke-induced apoptosis, whereas phenethyl isothiocyanate produced a further significant enhancement. Again, N-acetylcysteine and its combination with oltipraz significantly decreased smoke-induced apoptosis, In both studies exposure to smoke resulted in a sharp increase of cells positive for proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), which was unaffected by the examined chemopreventive agents, These findings highlight the concept that modulation of apoptosis has diversified meanings. Different meanings (as explained in the following lines). First, the apoptotic process is triggered as a defense system against genotoxic agents, such as the components of cigarette smoke. The further induction produced by phenethyl isothiocyanate, favoring removal of damaged cells, represents an example of a detoxification mechanism. Inhibition of smoke-induced apoptosis by N-acetylcysteine should be interpreted as an epiphenomenon of antigenotoxic mechanisms, as shown in parallel studies evaluating modulation of DNA alterations in the respiratory tract of the same animals. Thus, it is important to discriminate between whether the opposite modulation of apoptosis is per se a protective mechanism or the beneficial outcome of other mechanisms inhibiting genotoxicity.

In the present study, we demonstrate multiple effects of caffeine on Ca2+ homeostasis in human B lymphocytes. Although B cells express a functional RYR, which can be activated by 4-chloro-m-cresol following depletion of IP3-sensitive pools, caffeine does not activate RYR-mediated Ca2+ release. Instead, caffeine dose-dependently inhibited IP3 receptor (IP3R)-mediated Ca2+ release, RYR-mediated Ca2+ release and B cell receptor-initiated Ca2+ influx, while high concentrations of caffeine (>25mM) induced a Ca2+ influx. In contrast with its ability to suppress receptor-stimulated Ca2+ influx, caffeine had no significant effect on the store-operated Ca2+ (SOC) channel-dependent Ca2+ influx induced by thapsigargin. Thus, caffeine may act as an inhibitor on a single or multiple site(s) responsible for regulating the IP3R channel, RYR channel and presumably the receptor-mediated SOC channel. The present report may be the first demonstration of multiple effects of caffeine on Ca2+ mobilization in single cell type. Our results suggest the need for caution regarding use of caffeine simply as a RYR-activator to study Ca2+ homeostasis in eucaryotic cells. (C) 2001 Harcourt Publishers Ltd.

Numerous host factors have been shown to participate in the regulation of the LTR promoter. Among them is the thyroid hormone (T-3) receptor (TR). TR has been shown to bind to the critical region of the promoter that contain the NF kappaB and Sp1 binding sites. Interestingly, earlier transient transfection studies in tissue culture cells have yielded contradicting conclusions on the role of TR in LTR regulation, likely due to the use of different cell types and/or lack of proper chromatin organization. Here, using the frog oocyte as a model system that allows replication-coupled chromatin assembly, mimicking that in somatic cells, we demonstrate that unliganded heterodimers of TR and RXR (9-cis retinoic acid receptor) repress LTR while the addition of T-3 relieves the repression and further activates the promoter. More importantly, we show that chromatin and unliganded TR/RXR synergize to repress the promoter in a histone deacetylase-dependent manner.

To characterize the vesicular interactions of the C. pneumoniae inclusion, we used a fluorescent analogue of ceramide, (N-[7-(4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole)]-6-aminocaproyl-D-erythro-sphingosine (C-6-NBD-Cer), that has previously been used to characterize the endogenous synthesis and transport of sphingolipids from the Golgi apparatus to Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydia psittaci inclusions. Sphingolipids are trafficked to C. pneumoniae inclusions in a time-, temperature- and energy-dependent manner with properties very similar to the delivery of sphingomyelin to C. trachomatis inclusions. These results indicate that interactions of the inclusion with a subset of sphingomyelin-containing exocytic vesicles is a property common to all species of chlamydiae.

Against a background in which the possible importance of localized InsP(6) metabolism is discussed. there is the facile explanation that InsP(6) is merely an "inactive" precursor for the diphosphorylated inositol phosphates. Indeed. many of the proposed cellular functions of InsP(6) cannot sustain a challenge from the implementation of a rigorous set of criteria. which are designed to avoid experimental artefacts.

Understanding the neural systems and mechanisms underlying phonological processes provides a foundation for the investigation of language in the brain. We used high-resolution three-dimensional positron emission tomography (PET) to investigate neural systems essential for phonological processes. The burden of neural activities on the computation of speech codes was maximized by three rhyming tasks (rhyming words, pseudowords and words printed in mixed letter cases). Brain activation patterns associated with these tasks were compared with those of two baseline tasks involving visual feature detection. Results suggest strong left lateralized epicenters of neural activity in rhyming irrespective of gender. Word rhyming activated the same brain regions engaged in pseudoword rhyming, suggesting conjoint neural networks for phonological processing of words and pseudowords. However, pseudoword rhyming induced the largest change in cerebral blood flow and activated more voxels in the left posterior prefrontal regions and the left inferior occipital-temporal junction. In addition, pseudoword rhyming activated the left supramarginal gyrus, which was not apparent in word rhyming. These results suggest that rhyming pseudowords requires active participation of extended neural systems and networks not observed for rhyming words, The implications of the results on theories and models of visual word reading and on selective reading dysfunctions after brain lesions are discussed.

The symbol conventions defined for these molecular interaction maps are designed to accommodate multiprotein assemblies and protein modifications that can generate combinatorially large numbers of molecular species. Diagrams can either be "heuristic," meaning that detailed knowledge of all possible reaction paths is not required, or "explicit," meaning that the diagrams are totally unambiguous and suitable for simulation. Interaction maps are linked to annotation lists and indexes that provide ready access to pertinent data and references, and that allow any molecular species to be easily located. Illustrative interaction maps are included on the domain interactions of Src, transcription control of E2F-regulated genes, and signaling from receptor tyrosine kinase through phosphoinositides to Akt/PKB. A simple method of going from an explicit interaction diagram to an input file for a simulation program is outlined, in which the differential equations need not be written out. The role of interaction maps in selecting and defining systems for modeling is discussed. (C) 2001 American Institute of Physics. C1 NCI, Mol Pharmacol Lab, Div Basic Sci, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA.

Method: The forensic interview of a 5-year-old girl, an alleged victim of sexual abuse, was analyzed to explore interview practices associated with the retrieval of contradictory information. Content analyses of the child's responses focused on: (1) new informative details about the reported incidents; (2) contradictory details; (3) "central" and "peripheral" details; and (4) the types of utterances used to elicit each detail. Results: The results illustrate how risky option-posing and suggestive utterances can be, as most (90%) contradicting details were elicited using option-posing and suggestive utterances and almost all (98%) of the contradicted and contradicting details were central, containing crucial information concerning the investigated allegation. No contradictory details were elicited in response to open-ended invitations. Conclusion: The findings demonstrate that poor interviewing practices can be associated with high levels of internal contradiction and should be avoided by forensic interviewers. To avoid contaminating children's reports and increase the likely accuracy of the information retrieved, moreover, interviewers should elicit as much information as possible using open-ended utterances, which tap free-recall memory.

Diameters of induration (in millimeters) for three intradermally applied antigens (C. albicans, tetanus toxoid, and mumps) were compared in a population of HIV-infected 12 to 18 year olds at study entry in a national multicenter study of HIV disease progression. CD4(+) T-cell counts mere measured in quality-controlled laboratories. The influence of past immunization, gender, and clinical status on antigen reactivity was evaluated with contingency table comparisons and relative risk estimation. Nearly one-half of the 123 eligible subjects were untreated, and almost three quarters were early in HIV disease by clinical indicators. There was no statistically significant difference in reactivity by past immunization status. Candida antigen (CASTA; Greer Laboratories) evoked DTH response in a significantly higher number of males and females at every level of induration (largest P value, 0.049 for male comparisons; all P values, <0.001 for females) and in subjects with early and intermediate HIV disease at every level of induration (all P values, <0.0001) than either tetanus or mumps antigens. No two-antigen combination was as useful as all three antigens across either gender or clinical categories, although candida and tetanus was the mast useful two-antigen combination at indurations of <3 mm. The superior performance of a new C. albicans antigen may extend the utility of DTH assessment in monitoring immune function.

We tested whether development of T-helper cell responses to HIV and other antigens would be affected by exposure to short-course regimens of zidovudine-lamivudine (ZDV-3TC) given to prevent maternal-infant HIV transmission. Cord blood samples were collected from 41 infants of HIV-infected mothers enrolled in a clinical trial in which they were treated with regimens of ZDV-3TC and from 29 infants whose HIV-infected mothers were not treated with any antiretroviral drugs. T-helper cell reactivity to HIV envelope peptides and other antigens was measured in vitro using a sensitive culture supernatant titration assay based on IL-2-dependent proliferation. Infants in the clinical trial were followed to 18 months to determine their HIV infection status, and venous blood samples were re-tested at 4.5 and 9 months for T-cell reactivity to HIV. HIV-stimulated T-helper cell reactivity in cord blood was detected 10-fold less frequently among those exposed to antiretroviral prophylaxis (2.4%) than among those unexposed (24.1%) (P = 0.007). Reductions in HIV-stimulated responses in cord blood occurred despite detectable HIV RNA (mean 3.38 standard deviation 0.76 log(10) copies per ml) at delivery among treated women and occurred independent of treatment duration. Our results suggest that short-course antiretroviral treatment given to prevent maternal-infant HIV transmission may attenuate HIV-stimulated T-cell memory responses in the neonate.

The original pretreatment paraffin-embedded endoscopic esophageal tumor biopsy material was obtained from 118 patients treated with concurrent cisplatin + 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) + 45 Gy radiation followed by resection from 1986 until 1997 at the Duke University Comprehensive Cancer Center. Three markers of possible platinum chemotherapy association [metallothionein (MT), glutathione S-transferase-pi (GST-pi), P-glycoprotein (P-gp or multidrug resistance)] and one marker of possible 5-FU association [thymidylate synthase (TS)] were measured using immunohistochemistry. The median cancer-free survival was 25.0 months, with a significantly improved survival for the 38 patients who had a complete response (P < 0.001), High-level expression of GST-, P-gp, and TS were associated with a decreased survival. MT was not significant in this population, Multivariate analysis identified high-level expression in two of the platinum markers (GST-pi and P-gp) and the 5-FU marker TS as independent predictors of early recurrence and death, In conclusion, this investigation measured three possible markers associated with platinum and one possible marker associated with 5-FU in a cohort of esophageal cancer patients. Independent prognostic significance was observed, which suggests that it may be possible to predict which patients may benefit most from trimodality therapy. These data heed to he reproduced in a prospective investigation. C1 Duke Univ, Med Ctr, Thorac Oncol Program, Durham, NC 27710 USA. Duke Univ, Med Ctr, Dept Pathol, Durham, NC 27710 USA.

We evaluated the agents in 10 RCC cell lines (of primary and metastatic origin) isolated from 5 patients. The 50% inhibitory concentrations (IC,,) in these cell lines ranged from 0.019 +/- 0.013 to 11.4 +/- 0.55 muM and were comparable with values obtained with renal cell lines in the NCI Drug Screen panel. Because RCC are slowly growing tumors, we evaluated the compounds on rapidly (27% S phase) or slowly (6% S phase) growing cells. In contrast to doxorubicin, where cytotoxicity was restricted to rapidly proliferating cells, three compounds (NSC 280074, 281613, and 281817) were more cytotoxic in slowly proliferating cells. NSC 72151 and 268965 were equitoxic for both populations. NSC 94889, 638850, and 630938 were more cytotoxic in rapidly growing cells. In irt vitro time exposure studies, four compounds, NSC 268965, 280074, 281613, and 281817, were maximally cytotoxic with as little as 3 h exposure time. From an analysis comparing the p53 genotype of the 60 cell lines of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Drug Screen with the cytotoxicity profiles for the 16 putative renal compounds, 13 compounds were classified as likely to be indifferent to p53 status. We also developed a panel specificity detection method for the NCI Drug Screen database to evaluate the. prevalence of renal sensitive compounds. Of the 16 studied compounds, 14 were among those identified as renal sensitive by the statistical analysis, Lastly, we found reduced tumor growth in mice with established renal human tumor xenografts after treatment with two of the renal active compounds, These studies describe compounds with potential renal activity that are candidates for preclinical development for renal cell carcinoma.

An automated single-tube assay, referred to as the triple lipid screening (TLS) test, can be used for measuring HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C), total cholesterol, and triglycerides (TGs) with no specimen pretreatment. Methods: The first part of the assay is based on a homogeneous assay for HDL-C that uses either an anti-apolipoprotein B antibody (TLS-A test) or a polyanion (TLS-B test) that blocks the enzymatic measurement of cholesterol on the non-HDL fraction. After the addition of deoxycholate, which solubilizes the unreacted cholesterol from the non-HDL fraction, the remaining cholesterol in the sample is subsequently measured enzymatically. Using the same enzyme defection system as the cholesterol assay, TGs are measured in the last step, after the addition of the enzymes for the TG assay. Results: The TLS assay (y) had acceptable analytic performance and compared favorably with standard tests (x) for each analyte: for HDL-C, TLS-A = 0.99x + 0.19 (R = 0.980); TLS-B = 1.00x - 0.15 (R = 0.974); for total cholesterol, TLS-A = 1.03x + 0.12 (R = 0.997); TLS-B = 1.07x - 0.30 (R = 0.965); and for TGs, TLS-A = 1.02x + 0.02 (R = 0.988); TLS-B = 1.04x - 0.28 (R = 0.980). Conclusions: The TLS test is a single-tube homogeneous assay for the analysis of ail of the major serum lipoprotein fractions and can be used as a simple screening test for the detection of hyperlipidemia.

Heart rate adjusted QT intervals (Bazett's QTc, and QT index (QTI)) were assessed by electrocardiography in 2399 members aged 25-91 years of 468 randomly selected families participating in the NHLBI Family Heart Study, Familial correlation and segregation analyses were performed to evaluate the genetics of the variability of QT interval in this population. The parent-offspring (0.14 +/- 0.03) and sibling (0.18 +/- 0.03) correlations for age and sex-adjusted QTc were moderate, while the spouse correlation was close to zero (0.09 +/- 0.06). This suggests that there are familial/genetic influences on QT-interval variability. Segregation analysis results suggest that there is a major effect in addition to heritable multifactorial effects (h(2) = 0.34), but the major effect did not follow Mendelian inheritance. Further adjustments of QTc for other major cardiovascular risk factors did not significantly change the results, Similar results were found for QTI. The QT-interval variation in the general population is influenced by moderate heritable multifactorial effects in addition to a major effect. A major gene effect is not directly supported.

To an unprecedented extent, issues related to infectious diseases in the context of global health are on the agendas of world leaders, health policymakers, and philanthropies. This attention has focused both on scientific challenges such as vaccine development and on the deleterious effects of infectious diseases on economic development and political stability. Interest in global health has led to increasing levels of financial support, which, combined with recent technological advances, provide extraordinary opportunities for infectious disease research in the 21st century. The sequencing of human and microbial genomes and advances in functional genomics will underpin significant progress in many areas, including understanding human predisposition and susceptibility to disease, microbial pathogenesis, and the development new diagnostics, vaccines, and therapies. Increasingly, infectious disease research will be linked to the development of the medical infrastructure and training needed in developing countries to translate scientific advances into operational reality.

No local or systemic reactions of grade 2 or greater were reported 48 h after the subjects underwent immunization. Grade 3 or 4 chemistry toxicities occurred in 5 (3%) and grade 3 or 4 hematologic toxicities in 17 (11%) of 154 vaccinated subjects (not significantly different from 29 adjuvant recipients). CD4(+) cell percentages of less than or equal to 20% occurred at least once in 9 vaccinated subjects and 1 control subject. Sustained CD4(+) cell percentages of less than or equal to 20% occurred in 4 HIV-infected children. Fourteen infants (8%) were confirmed to be HIV-infected; median CD4(+) cell counts among these children were 2074, 1674, 1584, and 821 cells/mm(3) at birth and weeks 24, 52, and 104, respectively. Thus, both vaccines were safe and well tolerated in neonates, and there was no evidence of accelerated immunologic decline in HIV-infected infants.

Three patients were enrolled in and completed the study. All three patients responded to topiramate in this main study and entered a subsequent confirmatory study consisting of three topiramate-placebo crossovers. In the main study, topiramate reduced pain by 31%, 42%, and 64% in the three patients (p = 0.04). However, topiramate showed no effect in the confirmatory study. Given that trials of less common pain conditions are fraught with low patient recruitment rates, a multiple crossover design provides more information, which is important in conditions associated with considerable pain fluctuation. Larger trials are needed to more precisely estimate the effect of topiramate in trigeminal neuralgia.

A potential pharmacodynamic consequence is electrocardiographic QTc prolongation, which has been associated with torsade de pointes cardiac arrhythmia. Therefore a clinical pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic evaluation of this potential interaction was conducted. Methods: A randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group, multiple-dose design was used. Healthy men and women who were given doses of 60 mg of terfenadine every 12 hours, 20 mg of loratadine once daily, and 300 mg of nefazodone every 12 hours were studied. Descriptive pharmacokinetics (time to maximum concentration, maximum concentration, and area under the plasma concentration-time curve) were used for the examination of interactions among the respective parent drugs and metabolites. QTc prolongation (mean value over the dosing interval) was the pharmacodynamic parameter measured. Kinetic and dynamic analysis was used for the examination of pooled concentration and QTc data with the use of a linear model. Results: Concomitant nefazodone treatment markedly increased the dose interval area under the plasma concentration-time curve of both terfenadine (mean value, 17.3 +/- 8.5 ng (.) mL/h versus 97.4 + 48.9 ng (.) mL/h; P < .001) and carboxyterfenadine (mean value, 1.69 0.48 mug (.) h/mL versus 2.88 +/- 0.53 mug h/mL; P < .001) and moderately increased the dose interval area under the plasma concentration-time curve of both loratadine (mean value, 31.5 27.9 ng (.) h/mL versus 43.7 +/- 25.9 ng (.) h/mL; P < .014) and descarboethoxyloratadine (mean value, 73.4 54.9 ng (.) h/mL versus 81.9 +/- 26.2 ng (.) h/mL; P < .002). The mean QTc was unchanged with terfenadine alone; however, it was markedly prolonged with concomitant nefazodone and terfenadine (mean [90% confidence interval] prolongation 42.4 ms [34.2, 50.6 ms]; P < .05). Similarly, the mean QTc was unchanged with loratadine alone; however, it was prolonged with concomitant nefazodone and loratadine (21.6 ms [13.7, 29.4 ms]; P < .05). Nefazodone alone did not change mean QTc. QTc was positively correlated with terfenadine plasma concentration (r(2) = 0.21; P = .0001). Similarly, QTc was positively correlated with loratadine plasma concentration (r(2) = 0.056; P = .0008) but with a flatter slope. There was no relationship between QTc and nefazodone plasma concentration during treatment with nefazodone alone(r(2) = 0.002, not significant). Conclusions: In healthy men and women, concomitant nefazodone treatment at a therapeutic dose increases exposure to both terfenadine and carboxyterfenadine. This increased exposure is associated with marked QTc prolongation, which is correlated with terfenadine plasma concentration. A similar interaction occurs with loratadine, although it is of lesser magnitude. Concomitant administration of nefazodone with terfenadine may have predisposed individuals to the arrhythmia associated with QTc prolongation, torsade de pointes, when terfenadine was available for clinical use. However, a new finding is that in the context of higher than clinically recommended daily doses (20 mg) of loratadine concomitant administration with a metabolic inhibitor such as nefazodone can also result in QTc prolongation.

It is then "lesioned" by increasing the decay rate of elements in working memory to model the performance of 20 patients with lesions to the prefrontal cortex. The model captures both the main effects of subject groups (patients and normal controls) performance, and the subject groups (patients and normal controls) by problem difficulty interactions.

Studies of the prevalence of SAD and nonseasonal mood disorders among relatives of patients with SAD suggested a familial contribution to the development of SAD. Two twin studies demonstrated a substantial role of genetic variation in seasonality. Two genetic variants related to serotonergic transmission, the 8-HTTLPR and the 5-HT2A-1438G/A gene promoter polymorphisms, have been found to be associated with SAD. 5-HTTLPR is also associated with seasonality in SAD patients and in the general population. It is not clear whether SAD is inherited as a distinct entity or whether seasonality and depression are separate heritable traits that happen to coincide in certain individuals. Vulnerability to SAD and disease pathology may be influenced by many genes, perhaps on several chromosomes. Copyright (C) 2001 by W.B. Saunders Company.

We determined the clinical profiles and relative resource use of long-stay patients (LSPs) and developed a prediction model to identify LSPs for early quality and cost saving interventions. Design: Nonconcurrent cohort study. Setting: A total of 16 randomly selected PICUs and 16 volunteer PICUs. Patients: A total of 11,165 consecutive admissions to the 32 PICUs. Interventions: None. Measurements and Main Results: LSPs were defined as patients having a length of stay greater than the 95(th) percentile (> 12 days). Logistic regression analysis was used to determine which clinical characteristics, available within the first 24 hrs after admission, were associated with LSPs and to create a predictive algorithm. Overall, LSPs were 4.7% of the population but represented 36.1% of the days of care. Multivariate analysis indicated that the following factors are predictive of long stays: age < 12 months, previous ICU admission, emergency admission, no CPR before admission, admission from another ICU or intermediate care unit, chronic care requirements (total parenteral nutrition and tracheostomy), specific diagnoses including acquired cardiac disease, pneumonia, and other respiratory disorders, having never been discharged from the hospital, need for ventilatory support or an intracranial catheter, and a Pediatric Risk of Mortality III score between 10 and 33. The performance of the prediction algorithm in both the training and validation samples for identifying LSPs was good for both discrimination (area under the receiver operating characteristics curve of 0.83 and 0.85, respectively), and calibration (goodness of fit, p = .33 and p = .16, respectively). LSPs comprised from 2.1% to 8.1% of individual ICU patients and occupied from 15.2% to 57.8% of individual ICU bed days. Conclusions: LSPs have less favorable outcomes and use more resources than non-LSPs. The clinical profile of LSPs includes those who are younger and those that require chronic care devices. A predictive algorithm could help identify patients at high risk of prolonged stays appropriate for specific interventions.

This has been an important incentive for the development of therapeutic agents that increase Hb F production. 5-Azacytidine, the first such agent in clinical use, was proposed based on a molecular understanding of the role of DNA methylation in globin gene regulation. Controversy over the mechanism of Hb F induction by 5-azacytidine led to the identification of hydroxyurea as another agent that can increase Hb F production. Although the clinical benefit of hydroxyurea has been demonstrated in a randomized clinical trial, greater increases in Hb F are clearly needed for optimal therapeutic effect. Butyrates also increase Hb F levels, and their use in combination with hydroxyurea appears to be synergistic. Now that multiple therapeutic agents are available for Hb F induction, the use of combination therapy to increase Hb F levels sufficiently to prevent all the complications of sickle cell disease has become a realistic goal.

Because of their capacity to interact with bacterial chemotactic formylated peptides. these receptors are thought to play a role in host defense against microbial infection. Recently, a variety of novel agonists have been identified for these receptors, including several host-derived endogenous molecules that are involved in proinflammatory responses. Most notably is the use of FPRL1 by at least three amyloidogenic protein and peptide ligands, the serum amyloid A (SAA), the 42 amino acid form of beta amyloid (A beta (42)), and the prion peptide PrP106-126, to chemoattract and activate human phagocytic leukocytes. These new findings have greatly expanded the functional scope of the formyl peptide receptors and call for more in-depth investigation of the role of these receptors in pathophysiological conditions.

Several techniques referred collectively to as gene profiling may be also helpful in the analysis of the phenotype of mice with targeted mutations, especially if applied to distinct histological compartments, to specific cell types or to evaluate the effect of specific challenges, such as infection. Here we review several of the existing techniques applicable to genetic knockout studies, and share our experience from the study of mice with tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and lymphotoxin (LT) deficiencies, with specific emphasis on the distinction between TNF- and LT-mediated signalling pathways in vivo. Gene expression profiling analysis of TNF/LT-deficient mice supports the notion that TNF and LT, originally discovered as distinct biological activities, manifest both distinct and redundant functions in vivo.

The NR1 gene encodes the major subunit that is responsible for channel function, and NR1 -/- mice die at birth, inhibiting the study of glutamate signaling in postnatal neurons. The properties of cells lacking the NR1 subunit of NMDA receptors were studied by transplanting dissociated telencephalic, diencephalic, and mesencephalic cells of E14 mouse embryos with a targeted deletion of the NR1 gene into the ventricles of embryonic rats using intrauterine transplantation (Brustle et at, 1995, Neuron 15, 1275-1285). The transplanted cells took part in the normal development of the host brain where they survived after migration into a large number of brain structures. Morphological and immunohistochemical analysis suggests that NR1 -/- cells can differentiate normally in these sites. The results provide evidence that NMDA-receptor-initiated signals are not required for the postnatal differentiation and survival of many types of neurons in the central nervous system, in a noncell autonomous fashion after transplantation into a wild-type environment.

In preparation for gene therapy studies, pseudotyped HIV-1-based lentiviral vectors containing the PEN gene, as well as either green fluorescent protein or beta -galactosidase, were prepared. These bicistronic vectors are unique in that they express two genes efficiently under one promoter. Primary cell cultures of CGCs from postnatal day 8 rats were infected with the vectors encoding PEDF. RT-PCR demonstrated expression of mRNA and Western blot analysis confirmed that infected CGCs secrete PEN protein to the medium. Assays for cell survival demonstrated that PEDF-infected cells were significantly more protected compared with mock-infected controls for 6-8 days in culture, as well as against induced apoptosis. The PEN vectors expressing tat (trans-acting transcription factor) provided more protection than the tat(-) vectors. These results demonstrate that while the lentiviral vectors expressing PEN are as neuroprotective as the protein itself for CGCs, the vectors have the advantage of providing long-lasting expression of PEDF protein, which will be more effective in in vivo studies. The present results suggest that this system may be useful for gene therapy for neurodegenerative disorders. Copyright (C) 2001 S. Karger AG, Basel.

However, transient transgene expression and the tendency to induce host inflammatory responses have limited previous gene delivery studies using viral transfer vectors. We demonstrate here that recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) serotype 2, a vector that can overcome these limitations, effectively transduces both human and murine pancreatic islet cells with reporter genes as well as potentially important immunoregulatory cytokine genes (interleukin-4, interleukin-10), although a very high multiplicity of infection (10,000 infectious units/islet equivalent) was required. This requirement was alleviated by switching to rAAV serotype 5, which efficiently transduced islets at a multiplicity of infection of 100. Although adenovirus (Ad) coinfection was required for efficient ex vivo expression at early time points, islets transduced without Ad expressed efficiently when they were transplanted under the renal capsule and allowed to survive in vivo, The rAAV-delivered transgenes did not interfere with islet cell insulin production and were expressed in both beta- and non-beta -cells. We believe rAAV will provide a useful tool to deliver therapeutic genes for modulating immune responses against islet cells and markedly enhance longterm graft survival.

We used the diabetic (db/db) litter mates of these mice to examine the effects of GLUT4 overexpression on in vivo glucose utilization and on in vitro glucose transport and GLUT4 translocation in diabetic mice. We examined in vivo glucose disposal by oral glucose challenge and hyperinsulinemic-hyperglycemic clamps. We also evaluated the in vitro relationship between glucose transport activity and cell surface GLUT4 levels as assessed by photolabeling with the membrane-impermeant reagent 2-N-(4-(1-azi-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)benzoyl)-1,3-bis(D-mannose-4-yloxy)-2-propylamine in extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles. All parameters were examined as functions of animal age and the level of GLUT4 overexpression. In young mice (age 10-12 weeks), both lower (two- to threefold) and higher (four- to fivefold) levels of GLUT4 overexpression were associated with improved glucose tolerance compared to age-matched nontransgenic (NTG) mice. However, glucose tolerance deteriorated with age in db/db mice, although less rapidly in transgenic mice expressing the higher level of GLUT4. Glucose infusion rates during hyperinsulinemic-hyperglycemic clamps were increased with GLUT4 overexpression, compared with NTG mice in both lower and higher levels of GLUT4 overexpression, even in the older mice. Surprisingly, isolated EDL muscles from diabetic db/db mice did not exhibit alterations in either basal or insulin-stimulated glucose transport activity or cell surface GLUT4 compared to nondiabetic db/+ mice. Furthermore, both GLUT4 overexpression levels and animal age are associated with increased basal and insulin-stimulated glucose transport activities and cell surface GLUT4, However, the observed increased glucose transport activity in older db/db mice was not accompanied by an equivalent increase in cell surface GLUT4 compared to younger animals. Thus, although in vivo glucose tolerance is improved with GLUT4 overexpression in young animals, it deteriorates with age; in contrast, insulin responsiveness as assessed by the clamp technique remains improved with GLUT4 overexpression, as does in vitro insulin action. In summary, despite an impairment in whole-body glucose tolerance, skeletal muscle of the old transgenic GLUT4 db/db mice is still insulin responsive in vitro and in vivo.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS - Data from the Second National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey Mortality Study, a prospective study of adults, were analyzed. This analysis focused on a nationally representative sample of 3,174 adults aged 30-75 years who underwent an oral glucose tolerance rest at baseline (1976-1980) and who were followed up for death through 1992. RESULTS - Using 1985 World Health Organization criteria, adults were classified as having previously diagnosed diabetes (n = 248), undiagnosed diabetes (n = 183), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) (n = 480), or normal glucose tolerance (n = 2,263). For these groups, cumulative all-cause mortality through age 70 was 41, 34, 27, and 20%, respectively (P < 0.001). Compared with those with normal glucose tolerance, the multivariate adjusted RR of all-cause mortality was greatest for adults with diagnosed diabetes (RR2.11, 95% CI 1.56-2.84), followed by those with undiagnosed diabetes (1.77, 1.13-2.75) and those with IGT(1.42, 1.08-1.87; P < 0.001). A similar pattern of risk was observed For cardiovascular disease mortality. CONCLUSIONS - In the U.S., there was a gradient of mortality associated with abnormal glucose tolerance ranging from a 40% greater risk in adults with IGT to a 110% greater risk in adults with clinically evident diabetes. These associations were independent of established cardiovascular disease risk factors. C1 Johns Hopkins Med Inst, Welch Ctr Prevent Epidemiol & Clin Res, Baltimore, MD 21205 USA.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS - National samples of Caucasians, African-Americans, and Mexican-Americans were studied in the third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Information on medical history and treatment of diabetes, health care access and utilization, and health status and outcomes was obtained by structured questionnaires and by clinical and laboratory assessments. RESULTS - Almost all patients in each race and ethnic group had one primary source of ambulator), medical care (92-97%), saw one physician at this source (83-92%), and had at least semiannual physician visits (83-90%). Almost all patients greater than or equal to 65 years of age had health insurance (99-100%), and for those patients <65 years of age, Caucasians (91%) and African-Americans (89%) had higher rates of coverage than Mexican-Americans (66%). Rates of treatment with insulin or oral agents (71-78%), eye examination in the precious year (61-70%), blood pressure check in the previous 6 months (83-89%), and the proportion of hypertension that was diagnosed (84-91%) were similar for each race and ethnic group. Lower proportions of African-Americans and Mexican-Americans self-monitored their blood glucose (insulin-treated, 27 vs. 44% of Caucasians), had their cholesterol checked (62-68 vs. 81%), and had their dyslipidemia diagnosed (45 vs. 58%). African-American and Mexican-American patients had a somewhat higher proportion than Caucasian patients, with HbA(1c)7% (58-66 vs. 55%), blood pressure greater than or equal to 140/90 mmHg among those with diagnosed hypertension (60-65 vs. 55%), and clinical proteinuria (11-14 vs. 5%). In contrast, they had better levels of total cholesterol (greater than or equal to 24 mg/dl) (28-30 vs. 34%) and HDL cholesterol (greater than or equal to 45 mg/dl) (46-59 vs. 38%), and African-American and Mexican-American men were less overweight than Caucasian men (BMI greater than or equal to 30) (34-37 vs. 44%), although the opposite was true for women. LDL cholesterol levels and the proportion of patients who smoked cigarettes or were hospitalized in the past year were similar among all three groups. In logistic regression analysis, there was little evidence that levels of blood glucose, blood pressure, lipids, or albuminuria were associated with access to or utilization of health care or with socioeconomic status. CONCLUSIONS - There are some differences by race and ethnicity in health care access and utilization and in health status and outcomes for adults with type 2 diabetes. However, the magnitude of these differences pale in comparison with the suboptimal health status of all three race and ethnic groups relative to established treatment goals. Health status does not appear to be influenced by access to health cart. C1 NIDDKD, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA.

Here, we provide evidence that when full-length MHBs is coexpressed with the truncated MHBs(t167) protein, the secretion of the full-length protein is inhibited and both proteins accumulate within the cell. We further show that MHBs, forcibly retained in the cell by C-terminal fusion to the endoplasmic reticulum retention signal KDEL (MHBsKDEL), mimics the effects of MHBs(t167) in enhancing the nuclear-binding activity of transcription factors NFkappaB and AP-1, and activation of NFkappaB- and AP-1-dependent transcription of reporter genes. As is the case for MHBs(t167), MHBsKDEL-dependent activation of NFkappaB is inhibited by the antioxidant N-acetyl-L-cysteine indicating the involvement of reactive oxygen intermediates and suggesting a similar mechanism of activation. This study suggests that the intracellular retention and accumulation of the normally secreted MHBs leads to oxidative stress and activation of transcription. This may be an important but not exclusive mechanism in hepatocarcinogenesis. Copyright (C) 2002 S. Karger AG, Basel. C1 Univ Bonn, Dept Med 1, D-53105 Bonn, Germany.

In this study, using the newly isolated murine sPLA(2)IB cDNA clone as a probe, we demonstrate that in addition to the pancreas, the sPLA(2)IB mRNA was expressed in extrapancreatic organs such as the liver, spleen, duodenum, colon, and lungs. We also demonstrate that sPLA(2)IB mRNA expression was detectable from the 17(th) day of gestation in the developing mouse fetus, coinciding with the time of completion of differentiation of the pancreas. Furthermore, the mRNA expression pattern of sPLA(2)IB was distinct from those of sPLA(2)IIA and cPLA(2) in various tissues examined. The murine sPLA(2)IB gene structure is well conserved, consistent with findings in other mammalian species, and this gene mapped to the region of mouse chromosome 5P1-G1.1. Taken together, our results suggest that sPLA(2)IB plays important roles both in the pancreas and in extrapancreatic tissues and that in the mouse, its expression is developmentally regulated.

Pre-session treatment with either drug can decrease cocaine-maintained responding in rhesus monkeys while not affecting food-maintained responding. Both drugs are self-administered, but in some reports the patterns of responding they maintain differ from typical cocaine-reinforced responding. This study compared self-administration of cocaine (1-100 mug/kg/inj), GBR 12909 (3-100 mug/kg/inj), and phentermine (10-170 mug/kg/inj) in rhesus monkeys on a progressive-ratio schedule. Individual unit doses of each drug were available across several consecutive sessions. Cocaine self-administration was typical: the average number of ratios completed per session was a bitonic (increasing/decreasing) function of unit dose. Phentermine self-administration was variable across subjects (two of four monkeys self-administered reliably); one subject exhibited clear signs of behavioral toxicity. Self-administration of GBR 12909 was similarly variable across subjects. In the two subjects that self-administered GBR 12909 reliably, self-administration of small to mid-sized unit doses was enhanced following exposure to large unit doses. These data indicate that differences in self-administration of these drugs can be observed under progressive ratio procedures. Further, the data add to existing evidence suggesting that phentermine and GBR 12909 have at least moderate potential to be abused by humans. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.

Chronic elevation of plasma cortisol exerts direct toxic effects upon hippocampal neurons and exacerbates hippocampal damage resulting from ischemia and seizures. The authors tested for evidence of hippocampal damage in patients with chronic cocaine dependence. Medial temporal lobe and total brain volumes were quantified using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in 27 patients with cocaine dependence and 16 healthy subjects. Basal and ovine corticotropin releasing hormone (oCRH) stimulated ACTH and cortisol levels were also examined in a subset of 8 healthy and 9 cocaine dependent subjects after 21 days of abstinence. No evidence for decreased hippocampal or total brain volume in cocaine dependence was observed. Similarly, basal and oCRH stimulated ACTH and cortisol levels in cocaine dependent patients did not differ from those in healthy subjects. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

Genetic factors were found to significantly influence some traits (i.e. risk-taking attitude), while familial environmental factors were important for others (i.e. sexual promiscuity). For marijuana use, genetic and environmental factors were equally important; however, the association between risk taking and marijuana use may not be comparable for different behaviors. Results suggest that different etiological factors may underlie various risk taking traits which is relevant to both prevention efforts and attempts to identify genes involved in risk taking and shared genetic influences with substance use.

All 60 tumor cell lines displayed significant P450 activity, as well as P450 reductase activity, as determined using the general P450 substrate 7-benzyloxyresorufin. Cell line-specific P450 enzyme patterns were observed using three other P450 substrates, 7-ethoxycoumarin, coumarin, and 7-ethoxyresorufin, each of which was metabolized at a low rate. Using a pattern-matching computer program, COMPARE, correlative relationships were investigated between the arrays of P450 activities and the patterns of cytotoxicity exhibited by a large group of anticancer agents of proven or potential clinical utility. Significant negative correlations between the patterns of P450-dependent 7-benzyloxyresorufin metabolism activity and cell line chemosensitivity were observed for 10 standard anticancer agents (including 6 alkylating agents) and 55 investigational compounds, suggesting a role for P450 metabolism in the inactivation of these agents. Negative correlations between 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylation and cell line chemosensitivity to a group of topoisomerase inhibitors were also seen, again suggesting P450-dependent drug inactivation. P450 enzyme profiling may thus aid in interpreting the patterns of drug sensitivity and resistance in the NCI tumor cell panel, and may facilitate the identification of anticancer agents whose activity can be altered via cytochrome P450 metabolism.

The procedure utilizes gel electrophoresis, Western blotting, and luminographic detection methods to evaluate the distribution of vWF multimers before and after incubation of clinical samples under conditions that favor proteolysis by this enzyme. Physiologically, the high-molecular-weight multimers of vWF are cleaved by the vWF protease under conditions of high shear stress in parts of the arterial circulation; cleavage of vWF multimers is also observed after exposure of vWF to denaturing agents in vitro and thus can serve as a laboratory test for the activity of the protease. vWF protease activity is decreased or absent in patients with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura due to an inhibiting autoantibody, and this leads to high levels of noncleaved vWF and to life-threatening thrombosis, thrombocytopenia and anemia. The assay evaluates the activity of the protease by assessing the cleavage of VWF multimers after patient plasmas are incubated in vitro under denaturing conditions. With the use of these electrophoresis and Western blotting techniques, patient plasmas can be rapidly assessed for the activity of the vWF protease which may aid in the treatment strategy for these patients.

Toxicologic effects on the developing nervous system depend on the delivered dose, exposure duration, and developmental stage at which exposure occurred. Several pharmacokinetic processes (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion) govern chemical disposition within the dam and the nervous system of the offspring. in addition, unique physical features such as the presence or absence of a placental barrier and the gradual development of the blood-brain barrier influence chemical disposition and thus modulate developmental neurotoxicity. Neonatal exposure may depend on maternal pharmacokinetic processes and transfer of the xenobiotic through the milk, although direct exposure may occur through other routes (e.g., inhalation). Measurement of the xenobiotic in milk and evaluation of biomarkers of exposure or effect following exposure can confirm or characterize neonatal exposure. Physiologically based pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic models that incorporate these and other determinants can estimate tissue dose and biologic response following in utero or neonatal exposure. These models can characterize dose-response relationships and improve extrapolation of results from animal studies to humans. In addition, pharmacologic data allow an experimenter to determine whether exposure to the lest chemical is adequate, whether exposure occurs during critical periods of nervous system development, whether route and duration of exposure are appropriate, and whether developmental neurotoxicity can be differentiated from direct actions of the xenobiotic.

Additional exposures include Fungi, bacteria, bark and wood dusts, solvents, paints, and various other wood coatings. These individual and conglomerate exposures have been associated with diverse occupational illnesses and hazards, including cancers. In this commentary, I summarize both experimental and epidemiologic carcinogenesis results for several chemicals used in the wood industry, as well as for wood dust. Working in the wood industries entails excess risks of cancers, among other diseases and workplace injuries. A key to preventing occupationally and environmentally associated cancers, as in the wood industries, is avoiding exposures to chemicals and wood dusts and, in particular, chemicals known to cause cancer in animals or/and humans.

Pesticides involved in these events were compared to the frequency with which specific pesticides were ever used by the AHS cohort. Generally, pesticides with greater acute toxicity were more frequently involved with the high pesticide exposure event than were other pesticides. Whereas it is clear that the use of acutely toxic pesticides may be related to more frequent visits to health care facilities, the reason that the spills and immersions of the high pesticide exposure events are associated with the acute toxicity of the pesticide is not intuitively clear. This analysis suggests that current practices directed at minimizing pesticide exposures may not be sufficient for acutely toxic or irritating chemicals.

A statewide database of all applications of restricted pesticides was linked to maternal address to determine daily exposure status. We examined five pesticide chemical classes. The odds ratios from logistic regression models, adjusted for maternal age and county, showed a consistent pattern with respect to timing of exposure; the largest risks for fetal death due to congenital anomalies were from pesticide exposure during the 3rd-8th weeks of pregnancy. For exposure either in the square mile of the maternal residence or in one of the adjacent 8 square miles, odds ratios ranged from 1,4 (95% confidence interval = 0.8-2.4) for phosphates, carbamates, and endocrine disrupters to 2.2 (95% confidence interval = 1.3-3.9) for halogenated hydrocarbons. Similar odds ratios were observed when a more restrictive definition of nonexposure (not exposed to any of the five pesticide classes during the 3rd-8th weeks of pregnancy) was used. The odds ratios for all pesticide classes increased when exposure occurred within the same square mile of maternal residence. C1 Univ N Carolina, Sch Publ Hlth, Dept Epidemiol, Chapel Hill, NC USA.

The objective of this study was to develop an animal model of perimenstrual catamenial epilepsy for use in evaluating drug-treatment strategies. Methods: A state of prolonged high serum progesterone (pseudopregnancy) was induced in 26-day-old female rats by sequential injection of pregnant mares' serum gonadotropin and human chorionic gonadotropin. Neurosteroid withdrawal was induced by treatment with finasteride (100 mg/kg, i.p.), a 5 alpha -reductase inhibitor that blocks the conversion of progesterone to allopregnanolone. Plasma progesterone and allopregnanolone levels were measured by gas chromatography/electron capture negative chemical ionization mass spectrometry. Seizure susceptibility was evaluated with the convulsant pentylenetetrazol (PTZ). Results: Plasma allopregnanolene levels were markedly increased during pseudopregnancy (peak level, 55.1 vs, control diestrous level, 9.3 ng/mL) and were reduced by 86% 24 h after finasteride treatment (6.4 ng/mL). Progesterone levels were unaffected by finasteride. After finasteride-induced withdrawal, rats showed increased susceptibility to PTZ seizures. There was a significant increase in the number of animals exhibiting clonic seizures when challenged with subcutaneous PTZ (60 mg/kg) compared with control pseudopregnant animals not undergoing withdrawal and nonpseudopregnant diestrous females. The CD50 (50% convulsant dose) was 46 mg/kg, compared with 73 mg/kg in nonwithdrawn pseudopregnant animals and 60 mg/kg in diestrous controls. The threshold doses for induction of various seizure signs, measured by constant intravenous infusion of PTZ, were reduced by 30-35% in neurosteroid-withdrawing animals compared with control diestrous females. No change in threshold was observed in pseudopregnant rats treated from days 7 to 11 with finasteride, demonstrating that high levels of progesterone alone do not alter seizure reactivity. Conclusions: Neurosteroid withdrawal in pseudopregnant rats results in enhanced seizure susceptibility, providing an animal model of perimenstrual catamenial epilepsy that can be used for the evaluation of new therapeutic approaches.

Here we sought to determine whether the anticonvulsant potencies of neuroactive steroids, benzodiazepines, phenobarbital (PB), and valproate (VPA) are altered during the heightened seizure susceptibility accompanying neurosteroid withdrawal in a rat model of perimenstrual catamenial epilepsy. Methods: Test drugs were evaluated for their ability to alter the convulsant activity of pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) in young adult female rats, in pseudopregnant rats with prolonged exposure to high levels of progesterone (and its neurosteroid metabolites), and in pseudopregnant rats 24 h after acute withdrawal of neurosteroids by treatment with the 5 alpha -reductase inhibitor finasteride. Test drugs were administered at doses equivalent to twice their ED50 values for protection against PTZ-induced clonic seizures in naive young adult female rats. Results: The anticonvulsant activity of allopregnanolone (5 mg/kg, s.c.), pregnanolone (5 mg/kg, s.c,), allotetrahydrode-oxycorticosterone (15 mg/kg, s.c.), and tetrahydrodeoxycorticosterone (10 mg/kg, s.c.) were enhanced by 33-127% after neurosteroid withdrawal. The anticonvulsant activity of PB (65 mg/kg, i.p.) was also enhanced by 24% in neurosteroid-withdrawn animals. In contrast, the anticonvulsant activity of diazepam (4 mg/kg, i.p.), bretazenil (0.106 mg/kg, i.p.), and VPA (560 mg/kg, i.p.) were reduced or unchanged in neurosteroid-withdrawn animals. Conclusions: The anticonvulsant activity of neuroactive steroids is potentiated after neurosteroid withdrawal, supporting the use of such agents in the treatment of perimenstrual catamenial epilepsy.

SET is fused to a putative oncoprotein, CAN/NUP214, in AUL and is thought to play a key role in leukemogenesis by its nuclear localization, protein-protein interactions and PP2A inhibitory activity. Here, we describe the isolation and characterization of a novel cDNA encoding a protein with 1542 amino-acid residues that specifically interacts in a yeast two-hybrid system as well as in human cells with SET. This new protein, which we name SEB (SET-binding protein), is identified as a 170-kDa protein by immunoprecipitation with a specific antibody and is localized predominantly in the nucleus. SEB1238-1434 is determined as a SET-binding region that specifically binds to SET182-223. SEB also has an oncoprotein Ski homologous region (amino acids 654-858), six PEST sequences and three sequential PPLPPPPP repeats at the C-terminus. SEB mRNA is expressed ubiquitously in all human adult tissues and cells examined. The SEB gene locus is assigned to the chromosome 18q21.1 that contains candidate tumor suppressor genes associated with deletions in cancer and leukemia. Although the function of SEB is not known, we propose that SEB plays a key role in the mechanism of SET-related leukemogenesis and tumorigenesis, perhaps by suppressing SET function or by regulating the transforming activity of Ski in the nucleus.

During development, it participates in neuronal differentiation, migration, axon outgrowth and synaptogenesis. Cdk5, acting together with other kinases, phosphorylates numerous KSPXK consensus motifs in diverse cytoskeletal protein target molecules, including neurofilaments, and microtubule associated proteins, tau and MAPs. Phosphorylation regulates the dynamic interactions of cytoskeletal proteins with one another during all aspects of neurogenesis and axon radial growth. In this review we shall focus on Cdk5 and its regulation as it modulates neurofilament metabolism in axon outgrowth, cytoskeletal stabilization and radial growth. We suggest that Cdk5/p35 forms compartmentalized macromolecular complexes of cytoskeletal substrates, other neuronal kinases, phosphatases and activators ('phosphorylation machines') which facilitate the dynamic molecular interactions that underlie these processes.

In this study, the possibility that patients with FMF-BD may indeed be carriers of a single mutated MEFV is further analysed. The presence of mutations in the coding region of MEFV of eight patients with FMF-BD, representing six families with 47 members, was determined by sequencing. A possible role for the non-carrier chromosome and for ED in the expression of FMF in patients with a single mutated MEFV allele was determined by analysing the association between these variables and the presence of FMF in heterozygous kin. Sequence analysis revealed that all eight patients had indeed only one mutation in the coding region of MEFV. The patients' non-carrier chromosomes converged into three different MEFV haplotypes and were shared by heterozygous unaffected kin in five of six families. ED was found in 10 of 11 carriers with FMF vs one of 16 carriers without FMF (P < 0.001). These results suggest that FMF may be expressed in individuals harbouring only one coding mutation in MEFV. The findings argue against a role for the non-carrier chromosome in the induction of FMF, and suggest that the FMF phenotype in this cohort, was associated with the simultaneous presence of ED. These findings may mirror a more generalised rule, that FMF may be precipitated in carriers of a single mutated FMF gene by factors unrelated to the other MEFV allele.

DNase I, a Ca2+/Mg2+-dependent endonuclease ubiquitously expressed in mammalian tissues, is believed to play a role in this process. To analyze the in vivo function of this enzyme in human cells, we have generated a cell line with targeted disruption of the DNase I gene, as well as several stable cell lines which overexpress the DNase I gene. Inactivation of the human DNase I gene was obtained in the Jurkat T cell clone JA3, characterized by high susceptibility to apoptotic cell death induced by pharmacological stimuli. JA3 cells, after disruption of the DNase I gene, became resistant to apoptotic stimuli. DNase I was overexpressed in the human cell lines JA3, K562 (erythroleukemia), M 14(melanoma) and CEM CT cell lymphoma). Remarkably, stable overexpression of DNase I gene resulted in accelerated apoptosis in JA3 cells and induced apoptosis in K562, CEM and M14 cell lines, which are otherwise resistant to internucleosomal DNA degradation following pharmacological stimuli. Our study provides the first in vivo evidence that DNase I mediates internucleosomal DNA degradation in human cells undergoing drug-induced apoptosis. C1 Univ Genoa, Dept Expt Med, Genoa, Italy.

This dominant interaction does not adequately explain, however, the efficient association of ii with class II molecules of diverse allelic and isotypic origin, which have markedly different affinities for synthetic peptides corresponding to CLIP. In agreement with other recent observations, we demonstrate here that class II molecules with occupied binding sites unable to engage CLIP maintain association with ii in mild detergent. The association is direct and not mediated through unoccupied class II chains bound to properly assembled and loaded class II dimers, nor is it mediated through chaperones. The site of this CLIP-independent binding has been mapped using truncation mutants and an ii-human transferrin receptor chimeric protein to the transmembrane segment of ii. The existence of multiple low-affinity sites of interaction between MHC class II and ii helps explain how effective occupancy of all newly synthesized class II molecules can occur despite substantial variations in the strength of CLIP-dependent association that arise from class II binding domain polymorphism. These data establishing a site of II-MHC class II association N-terminal to CLIP also provide new insight into the possible functional relationship between the sequential endocytic proteolysis of ii from its C terminus and a series of contact sites with MHC class II molecules spread from the transmembrane region through to the tip of the lumenal segment of ii.

In the N-benzyl series, introduction of 3-Cl, 4-Cl, 3,4-Cl-2, or 3-CF3 groups on the aromatic ring led to an increase in MES activity. Replacement of the alpha -methyl group by either i-Pr or benzyl groups enhanced MES activity with no increase in neurotoxicity. Substitution on the piperidine ring nitrogen led to a decrease in MES activity and neurotoxicity, while reduction of the amide carbonyl led to a complete loss of activity. Movement of the carboxamide group to either the 3- or 4-positions of the piperidine ring decreased MES activity and neurotoxicity. Incorporation of the piperidine ring into a tetrahydroisoquinoline or diazahydrinone nucleus led to increased neurotoxicity. In the N-(2,6-dimethyl)phenyl series, opening of the piperidine ring between the 1- and 6-positions gave the active norleucine derivative 75 (ED50 = 5.8 mg kg(-1), TD50 = 36.4 mg kg(-1), PI = 6.3). Replacement of the piperidine ring of I by cycloalkane (cyclohexane, cyclopentane, and cyclobutane) resulted in compounds with decreased MES activity and neurotoxicity, whereas replacement of the piperidine ring by a 4-pyridyl group led to a retention of MES activity with a comparable PI. Simplification of the 2-piperidinecarboxamide nucleus of 1 into a glycinecarboxamide nucleus led to about a six-fold decrease in MES activity. The 2,6-dimethylanilides were the most potent compounds in the MES test in each group of compounds evaluated, and compounds 50 and 75 should be useful leads in the development of agents for the treatment of tonic-clonic and partial seizures in man.

These four spatial variables were dissociated in two tasks, which both required that a monkey attend to a robot's location in order to know when to make a movement. However, the target of the reaching movement varied; it was the robot's location in one task, but a different location in the other task. Eye position was recorded, but not explicitly controlled. Of 199 PMd neurons sampled, 19% had activity related to eye position, and an overlapping 11% were related to saccade direction (totaling 24% of the PMd sample). Of the 152 PMd neurons that lacked oculomotor relationships, approximate to 20% reflected the orientation of selective spatial attention. Attentional tuning may account, at least in part, for gaze-independent receptive fields and visuospatial, target or goal relationships in tasks involving stimulus-response incompatibility.

To determine whether damage limited to the cell bodies of the rhinal cortex is sufficient to impair visual learning and memory, four rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) were preoperatively trained on a battery of visual learning and memory tasks, including single-pair discrimination learning for primary reinforcement, single-pair discrimination reversals, concurrent discrimination learning and reversal, and delayed matching-to-sample. Following acquisition of these tasks and a preoperative performance test, ibotenic acid was injected bilaterally into the rhinal cortex, and the monkeys were retested. Consistent with the results of studies using aspiration lesions, the monkeys were impaired on single-pair discrimination learning as well as recognition memory performance postoperatively, although reliable reversal learning impairments were not observed. The magnitude of postoperative impairment in discrimination learning was not correlated with the magnitude of postoperative impairment in recognition memory, suggesting a possible dissociation between these functions within the rhinal cortex. The correspondence of behavioural deficits following aspiration and neurotoxic lesions of the rhinal cortex validates the attribution of various cognitive functions to this structure, based on the results of studies with aspiration lesions.

In general, government support for biogerontology research has been generous, and as a result considerable progress has been made in understanding the molecular mechanisms of aging in animal model systems. Translation of these findings to humans, and development of interventions to promote healthy aging in humans remain an unfulfilled priority, but new knowledge and development of better technologies and model systems suggest an optimistic future.

However, the binding of growth factors to heparin-binding sites in the extracellular matrix may limit the volume of distribution (V-d). To overcome this limitation, we examined the effects of heparin coinfusion on V-d of glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), neurturin (NTN), artemin, and a nonspecifically bound protein, albumin. Heparin coinfusion significantly enhanced the Vd of GDNF and GDNF-homologous trophic factors, probably by binding and blocking heparin-binding sites in the extracellular matrix. Furthermore, coinfusion of heparin with NTN enhanced striatal dopamine metabolism, compared to trophic factor administered alone. The negligible benefit of GDNF in recent clinical trials of Parkinson's disease may result from limited tissue distribution. Heparin coinfusion during CED targeting the striatum may alleviate this important limitation. This study demonstrates the influence of receptor binding on the distribution of trophic factors in the CNS. (C) 2001 Academic Press. C1 NINDS, Mol Therapeut Sect, LMMN, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA.

Tumour growth and metastasis is dependent on angiogenesis and many stimulatory and inhibitory factors have been described which play an active role in this process. Inhibition of tumour neovasculature may be one strategy to inhibit tumour growth. Naturally occurring inhibitors of angiogenesis have been discovered and synthetic agents have been designed. Many of these inhibitors are currently being evaluated in clinical trials for the treatment of cancer. This review discusses the mechanism of action of these anti-angiogenics as well as a description of the clinical trials in which they are being evaluated. C1 NCI, Surg Branch, Bethesda, MD 20892 USA.

This disease is characterised by its tendency to be modulated by immunologic factors. Furthermore, immunologic manipulation of the host with various systemic agents, in particular IL-2, frequently affects this natural phenomenon and can lead to complete rejection of cancer. By studying the cellular immunology occurring in patients undergoing immunotherapy, several tumour antigens (TA) and their epitopes recognised by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I-restricted cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL) have been identified. Most of these TA are non-mutated molecules expressed by the majority of melanoma in vivo and most melanoma cell lines. In addition, unique minimal epitopic sequences play an immunodominant role in the context of specific HLA class I alleles. Since melanoma lesions from different patients often share expression of the same TA, and a minimal peptide sequence from a TA can cause immunologic changes in multiple patients, interest has grown in the development of TA-specific vaccines suitable for broad patient populations. Repeated in vitro stimulation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) with TA-derived epitopes can induce a high frequency of TA-reactive T-cells in melanoma patients. The same epitopes can also enhance TA-specific T-cell reactivity in vivo when administered subcutaneously in combination with Incomplete Freund's Adjuvant (IFA). Epitope-based vaccinations, however, have not shown strong clinical efficacy unless combined with IL-2 administration. Attempts to increase the efficacy of these vaccines have combined specialised antigen-presenting cells or the administration of whole TA through DNA- or RNA-based vaccines with the intention of increasing antigen presentation and processing. Save for scattered reports, however, the success of these approaches has been limited and T-cell-directed vaccination against cancer remains at a paradoxical standstill whereby anticancer immunisation can be induced but it is not sufficient, in most cases, to induce tumour regression. Using melanoma as the standard model for immunotherapy, we will review various methods of T-cell-directed vaccination, the monitoring and analysis of the resulting immune response, and several clinical trials in which cancer vaccines have successfully induced immunisation.

Although effective cessation treatments exist, their overall effect is modest, and they rarely reach the high-P ish, health-compromised smokers who need them most. Surprisingly, despite evidence that marital relationship variables predict the success of cessation efforts, family systems ideas have had little impact on current intervention research. We review and critique the cessation literature from a systemic viewpoint, illustrate two couple-interaction patterns relevant to the maintenance of high-risk smoking, and outline a family-consultation (FAMCON) intervention for couples in which at least one partner continues to smoke despite having heart or lung disease. Taking into account ironic processes and symptom-system fit, FAMCON focuses on the immediate social context of smoking, aiming to interrupt well-intentioned "solutions" that ironically feed back to keep smoking going, and to help clients realign important relationships in ways not organized around tobacco usage. Currently in its pilot-testing phase, FAMCON is an adjunctive, complementary approach designed to include collaboration with primary-care physicians and to make smokers more amenable to other, evidence-based cessation strategies.

Monocyte-derived macrophages are central cells that accumulate this cholesterol in atherosclerotic lesions, a manifestation of the scavenging function of the macrophage. Different types of cholesterol-containing lipid particles found in atherosclerotic lesions may enter macrophages by a variety of endocytic pathways. The fate of cholesterol that enters macrophages determines whether macrophages help or hinder cholesterol removal from the vessel wall. Macrophages may function to carry cholesterol out of lesions, or to process the cholesterol for excretion in association with small protein-phospholipid complexes. Alternatively, macrophages that do not efficiently function to remove cholesterol from lesions may ultimately undergo cell death. Some cytokines, hormones, and pharmacologic agents show potential to modulate these processes and may be useful in directing macrophage function in atherosclerotic lesions towards beneficial rather than harmful effects.

The nucleocapsid contains small pores that permit influx of nucleotide triphosphates and metabolites of nucleoside analogues such as lamivudine for DNA synthesis. Lamivudine is a potent inhibitor of HBV and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) reverse transcriptases, but substitutions of isoleucine or valine for methionine within the tyrosine-methionine-aspartate-aspartate (YMDD) motif are associated with virologic and clinical resistance to lamivudine therapy. Under lamivudine selection pressure, the high viral production rate and the low fidelity viral polymerase contribute to frequent development of the YMDD mutants. However, the pattern and dynamics of emergence of the mutant viruses over the wild-type virus are determined by multiple factors including replication efficiency, host immune response, and availability of replication space. Structural modeling of HIV reverse transcriptase has permitted key insights into the molecular basis of lamivudine resistance of HBV based on evolutionary relatedness of HIV and HBV, The side groups of isoleucine and valine of the YMDD mutants sterically prevent lamivudine from appropriately configuring into the nucleotide binding site of the reverse transcriptase, Aminotransferase flares are associated with lamivudine therapy and may signify clinical resistance with emergence of YMDD mutants.

The most prominent changes were gains of part or all of chromosome arms 8q (83% of cases) and 1q (73%) and loss of 16q (63%). Other commonly overrepresented sites were 5p, 7q, and Xq. Recurrent sites of DNA sequence amplification included 8q23-24 (five cases) and 11q13-14 (four cases). Other frequently underrepresented sites were 4q, 8p, 16p, and 17p. Taken collectively, these findings and data from other CGH studies of HCCs define a subset of chromosome segments that are consistently over- or underrepresented and highlight sites of putative oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, respectively, involved in hepatocellular oncogenesis. Loss of heterozygosity analysis with a panel of polymorphic microsatellite markers distributed along 16q defined a minimal region of chromosomal loss at 16q23.1-24.1, suggesting that this region harbors a tumor suppressor gene whose loss/inactivation may contribute to the pathogenesis of many HCCs.

In 47 cases, chromosomal imbalances were found. Several recurrent chromosomal abnormalities were identified in the present study. The most frequently detected chromosomal gains involved chromosome arms 12q (24 cases, 51%), 4q (17 cases, 36%), 3q (16 cases, 34%), 1q (15 cases, 32%), and 18q (15 cases, 32%). Common regions of gain involved 12q13-q15, 4q12-q21, and 3q21-q26. High-copy-number increases of chromosomal materials were detected in four chromosomal regions, 3q21-q26.2, 4p12-q21, 8p, and 12q14-q15. The most frequently detected loss of chromosomal materials involved chromosome arms 16q (26 cases, 55%), 14q (21 cases, 45%), 1p (20 cases, 43%), 3p (20 cases, 43%), 16p (19 cases. 40%), 1 Iq (17 cases, 36%), and 19p (16 cases, 34%). The most common regions of loss involved 14q24-qter, 1 pter-p36.1, 3p22-p21.3, 11q21-qter, and the distal region of 19p. Genomic alterations detected by CGH were compared and found to be largely consistent with those identified in banding analysis and loss of heterozygosity studies. However, several previously unrecognized recurrent alterations were also identified in the present study, including gain of 4q and 18q, and loss of 16q, 14q, and 19p. In addition, gain of 1q, 8q, 18q, and loss of 9q showed a statistically significant association with advanced clinical stages (P < 0.05). Identification of recurrent sites of chromosomal gain and loss identify regions of the genome that may contain oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes, respectively, which may be involved in the tumorigenesis of NPC.

Here we combine cytogenetic data on the 12;15 translocation (SKY and FISH) with the molecular analysis of key junction sites (long-range PCR followed by DNA sequencing) to demonstrate that translocation remodeling occurred as an infrequent, stepwise, and disomic tumor progression event in the tetraploid, fully transformed, and transplantable plasmacytoma TEPC 3610. This result was used. in conjunction with previously obtained molecular data on five other primary plasmacytomas, to devise a hypothesis that predicts that the selective pressure to undergo translocation remodeling may be predetermined by the location of the break site in Myc. The pressure may be low if the break occurs 5' of the normal promoter region of Myc, but it may be considerably stronger if the break occurs 3' of the Myc promoter.

Rac and Cdc42 can also control the activity of INK, thus acting in a molecular pathway transmitting extracellular signals to the nucleus. Interestingly, Rho can also regulate gene expression, albeit by a not fully understood mechanism. Here, we found that activated RhoA can stimulate c-jun expression and the activity of the c-jun promoter. As the complexity of the signaling pathways controlling the expression of c-jun has begun to be unraveled, this finding provided a unique opportunity to elucidate the biochemical routes whereby RhoA regulates nuclear events. We found that RhoA can initiate a linear kinase cascade leading to the activation of ERK6 (p38 gamma), a recently identified member of the p38 family of MAPKs. Furthermore, we present evidence that RhoA, PKN, MKK3/MKK6, and ERK6 (p38 gamma) are components of a novel signal transduction pathway involved in the regulation of gene expression and cellular transformation.

The gene mutated in A-T (ATM) is a serine protein kinase implicated in cell cycle regulation and DNA repair. The role of ATM in the brain and the consequences of its loss on neuronal survival remain unclear. We studied the role of ATM in adult neural progenitor cells in vivo and in vitro to define the role of ATM in dividing and postmitotic neural cells from Atm-deficient (Atm(-/-)) mice in a physiologic context. We demonstrate that ATM is an abundant protein in dividing neural progenitor cells but is markedly down-regulated as cells differentiate. In the absence of ATM, neural progenitor cells of the dentate gyrus show abnormally high rates of proliferation and genomic instability. Atm(-/-) cells in vivo, and in cell culture, show a blunted response to environmental stimuli that promote neural progenitor cell proliferation, survival, and differentiation along a neuronal lineage. This study defines a role for ATM during the process of neurogenesis, demonstrates that ATM is required for normal cell fate determination and neuronal survival both in vitro and in vivo, and points to a mechanism for neuronal cell loss in progressive neurodegenerative diseases.

Control over sigma (s) activity is exercised in part by regulated degradation of sigma (s). In vivo, degradation requires the ClpXP protease together with RssB, a protein homologous to response regulator proteins. Using purified components, we reconstructed the degradation of sigma (s) in vitro and demonstrate a direct role for RssB in delivering sigma (s) to ClpXP. RssB greatly stimulates sigma (s) degradation by ClpXP. Acetyl phosphate, which phosphorylates RssB, is required. RssB participates in multiple rounds of sigma (s) degradation, demonstrating its catalytic role. RssB promotes sigma (s) degradation specifically; it does not affect degradation of other ClpXP substrates or other proteins not normally degraded by ClpXP. sigma (s) and RssB form a stable complex in the presence of acetyl phosphate, and together they form a ternary complex with ClpX that is stabilized by ATP[gamma -S]. Alone, neither sigma (s) nor RssB binds ClpX with high affinity. When ClpP is present, a larger sigma (s)-RssB-ClpXP complex forms. The complex degrades sigma (s) and releases RssB from ClpXP in an ATP-dependent reaction. Our results illuminate an important mechanism for regulated protein turnover in which a unique targeting protein, whose own activity is regulated through specific signaling pathways, catalyzes the delivery of a specific substrate to a specific protease.

Results: Using a second-site suppression screen of a mutation in the nod locus with a variable meiotic phenotype, we have identified mutations in the Drosophila melanogaster UBC9 homologue, encoded by the gene lesswright (lwr). lwr mutations dominantly suppress the nondisjunction and cytological defects of female meiotic mutations that affect spindle formation. The lwr lethal phenotype is rescued by a Drosophila UBC9/lwr transgene. Conclusions: We suggest that LWR mediates the dissociation of heterochromatic regions of homologues at the end of meiotic prophase I. Our model proposes that when there is less LWR protein, homologues remain together longer, allowing for more normal spindle formation in mutant backgrounds and therefore more accurate meiotic chromosome segregation.

Nine quantitative traits (developmental time, viability, fecundity, longevity, metabolic rate, motility, body weight, and abdominal and sternopleural bristle numbers) were measured in outbred heterozygous F-3 (viability) or F-2 (all other traits) offspring from the treated males. The mean values of the first four traits, which are all directly related to the life history, were substantially affected by EMS mutagenesis: the developmental time increased while viability, fecundity, and longevity declined. In contrast, the mean values of the other five traits were not significantly affected. Rates of recessive X-linked lethals and of recessive mutations at several loci affecting eye color imply that our EMS treatment was equivalent to similar to 100 generations of spontaneous mutation. If so, our data imply that one generation of spontaneous mutation increases the developmental time by 0.09% at 20 degrees and by 0.04% at 25 degrees, and reduces viability under harsh conditions, fecundity, and longevity by 1.35, 0.21, and 0.08%, respectively. Comparison of flies with none, one, and two grandfathers (or greatgrandfathers, in the case of viability) treated with EMS did not reveal any significant epistasis among the induced mutations.

In total, 28 mutants were found in 16 independent events (13 singletons and three clusters). The molecular nature of the 13 events was analyzed. Coding exons of the locus were affected by insertions or deletions >100 nucleotides long (6 events), short frameshift insertions or deletions (4 events), and replacement nucleotide substitutions (1 event). In the case of 2 mutant alleles, coding regions were not affected. Because similar to 70% Of spontaneous de novo loss-of-function mutations in Homo sapiens are due to nucleotide substitutions within coding regions, insertions and deletions appear to play a much larger role in spontaneous mutation in D. melanogaster than in H. sapiens. If so, the per nucleotide mutation rate in D. melanogaster may be lower than in H. sapiens, even if their per locus mutation rates are similar.
