AB NK cells lyse target cells without previous immune sensitization. A small subset of T cells also exhibits NK-like activity, which is distinct from TCR-mediated, MHC-restricted, and MHC-unrestricted cytotoxicity. We recently cloned a gene, NK-TR, which is postulated to be part of the NK target-recognition/triggering complex. To determine whether the NK-TR gene product is requisite for NK-like killing, stable antisense transfectants were generated by using a human T cell clone with NK-like activity. Two distinct antisense regions of the sequence were used to generate the transfectants alpha NK-TR and alpha Cyclo. Transfectants lost the ability to lyse NK sensitive targets but did not lose lectin-mediated cytotoxic activity. This effect was not seen with the control vector transfectant cell line. The loss of NK-like activity by the antisense transfectant alpha NK-TR correlated with the specific decrease in endogenous NK-TR mRNA and protein. These results demonstrate the requirement for the NK-TR protein for NK-like killing. Moreover, the results have important implications for examining developmental relationship between T and NK cells and the possible roles for T cells with NK-like activity in vivo.

AB NF-kappa B is a rapidly inducible transcriptional activator that responds to a variety of signals and influences the expression of many genes involved in the immune response. Protein tyrosine kinases transmit signals from cytokine and immune receptors. Very little information exists linking these two important classes of signaling molecules. We now demonstrate that v-scr expression correlates with nuclear expression of a kappa B binding complex similar to that induced by phorbol ester and ionomycin, as detected by electrophoretic mobility shift assay using a variety of kappa B sites. This complex was blocked by the tyrosine kinase inhibitor, herbimycin A. The v-src-induced complex comprised the p50 and p65 components of NF-kappa B, as determined by supershift and immunoblot analysis. As a functional correlate of this finding, transient co-transfection of HIV-1 LTR reporter constructs in a different T cell line demonstrated that v-src activated this promoter in a kappa B-dependent manner. We found that transactivation of the HIV-1 LTR by v-src was more sensitive to mutations of the proximal, rather that the distal, kappa B element. The implications for T cell receptor signaling and HIV-1 gene expression are considered.

AB In certain mutant human B cell lines, MHC-encoded class II molecules displayed at the cell surface have an abnormal conformation and are unstable in the presence of SDS. The mutants cannot present exogenous protein Ags to T cells but elicit responses with exogenous antigenic peptides; thus, formation of intracellular complexes between antigenic peptides and class II molecules is impaired. Previous analysis of LCL deletion mutants, .82, .174, and 5.2.4, showed that genes needed for this function must be present in approximate to 230 kb of DNA in the class II region of the MHC. We now describe a new deletion mutant, .61, which has normal class II-mediated Ag processing/presentation. The TAP1, TAP2, LMP2, and LMP7 genes are deleted from .61, demonstrating that those genes are not needed for normal formation of intracellular class II/peptide complexes. The genes in question must be located in DNA that is present in .61 and .82 (both normal) and absent from .174 and 5.2.4. (both defective). Mapping of the deletion breakpoints indicates that genes needed for normal class II-associated Ag processing/presentation are either: 1) in an approximate to 40 kb L DNA segment located between the DMB and LMP2 loci or 2) in an R region between the DQA2 and DQB1 loci and are completely included on a 5.1-kb fragment formed by joining of DNA that flanks the deletion in .61. The evidence favors location of the genes in the L DNA segment.

AB An equilibrium binding assay was used to directly measure the relative affinities of naturally processed 9-mer, 10-mer, and 12-mer peptides for the human class I MHC molecule HLA-A2.1. The peptides exhibited a range of affinities with IC50 values of 11 to 214 nM. The mode of interaction between these peptides and HLA-A2.1 was examined using peptides in which Asp had been substituted for suspected anchor residues. Regardless of length, the previously identified Leu at position 2 relative to the amino terminus was critical for peptide binding. While the carboxyl terminal residue was also critical for the binding of a 9-mer peptide, it was much less important in the binding of longer peptides. Additional residues close to the carboxyl terminus that contained aliphatic hydrocarbon side chains were of similar or greater importance in peptide binding. In addition, residue at position 3 also appeared to be important for the binding of longer peptides. The data suggest that different naturally occurring longer peptides can bind in different conformations to class I MHC molecules. While one of these is similar to the kinked conformation described by others, another conformation would involve an extension of the carboxyl terminus out of the class I binding site. The ability of MHC molecules to accommodate the same peptide indifferent conformations would appear to have distinct advantages to the immune system.

AB Anti-DNA IgA autoantibodies play an important immunopathologic role in SLE patients. To analyze the cellular origin and the V-H and V-L structure of anti-DNA IgA autoantibodies, we generated five IgA1 mAbs to DNA using B lymphocytes from three SLE patients. Two mAbs bound to ssDNA only and one to both ssDNA and dsDNA (monoreactive antibodies). The remaining two mAbs bound to DNA (one to ssDNA and the other to both ssDNA and dsDNA) and to other self and foreign Ag (polyreactive antibodies). The IgA mAb relative avidity for DNA ranged from 7.5 x 10(-8) to 8.0 X 10(-10) g/mu l. The anti-DNA IgA mAb used V-H segments of the VHI (VI-3b), VHII (V(H)2-MC2), VHIII (WHG16G and V(H)26c), and VHIV (V71-2) families in conjunction with V kappa I, V kappa IIIb, or V lambda I segments. All IgA mAb V-H segments were juxtaposed with J(H)4b segments. The heavy chain CDR3 sequences were divergent in composition and length. When compared with those of the closest reported germ line genes, the IgA mAb V-H and V-L gene sequences displayed a number of differences. That these differences represented somatic point mutations was formally proved in both the monoreactive IgA mAb 412.67.F1.3 and the polyreactive IgA mAb 412.66.F1 V-H segments by differential PCR amplification and cloning and sequencing of genomic DNA from the mAb-producing cell lines and autologous polymer-phonuclear cells. The sequences of the germ line genes that putatively gave rise to the mAb 412.67.F1.3 and mAb 412.66.F1 V-H segments were identical with those of the WHG16G and V(H)26c genes, respectively. In not only the monoreactive mAb 412.67.F1.3 but also the polyreactive mAb 412.66.F1 and mAb 448.9G.F1 V-H segments, the higher concentration of replacement (R) mutations and the higher R:S (silent) mutation ratios in the complementarity-determining region (infinity; 19:0) than in the framework region (1.0) (p = 0.00001, chi(2) test) were highly consistent with selection by Ag. In the five IgA mAb V-H and V-L segments, the putative and verified somatic point mutations yielded 68 amino acid replacements, of which 38 were nonconserved. Twenty of these yielded positively charged or polar residues that play a major role in DNA binding, including seven Arg, five Lys, three Tyr, two Gln, two His, and a Thr. The conserved amino acid changes included seven Asn. These findings suggest that anti-DNA IgA autoantibodies use a broad selection of V-H and V-L genes and enhance their fit for Ag by undergoing somatic hypermutation and Ag selection. Such a hypermutation and Ag selection process would apply to originally polyreactive, in addition to monoreactive natural DNA binding IgA autoantibodies.

AB Objectives. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the impaired endothelium dependent vasodilation of hypercholesterolemic patients is due to decreased availability of L arginine, the substrate for nitric oxide.
Background. Patients with hypercholesterolemia have impaired endothelium dependent vasodilation that is related to a defect in the endothelium derived nitric oxide system. However, the precise location of this abnormality has not been determined.
Methods. The study included 12 hypercholesterolemic patients (6 men, 6 women; 52 +/- 9 years old; serum cholesterol >240 mg/dl) and 15 normal volunteers (8 men, 7 women; 50 +/- 6 years old; serum cholesterol <210 mg/dl). The forearm vascular responses to intraarterial infusion of acetylcholine, an endothelium-dependent vasodilator (7.5, 15, 30 mu g/min), and sodium nitroprusside, a direct smooth muscle dilator (0.8, 1.6, 3.2 mu g/min) were studied before and during infusion of L- or D-arginine (a stereoisomer of arginine that is not a nitric oxide precursor).
Results. The response to acetylcholine was lower in hypercholesterolemic patients than in control subjects. However, no significant difference was observed with sodium nitroprusside infusion. L-Arginine augmented the response to acetylcholine in normal subjects (maximal blood flow increased from 14.4 +/- 7 to 18.9 +/- 10 ml/min per 100 ml, p < 0.002). In contrast, in the hypercholesterolemic lesterolemic patients, only a mild but not significant improvement in the response to acetylcholine was observed with the infusion of L-arginine (maximal blood flow increased from 6.8 +/- 4 to 8.4 +/- 5 ml/min per 100 mi; p = 0.16); however, a similar mad but not significant change was also observed with D-arginine (maximal blood flow increased from 6.8 +/- 4 to 8.3 +/- 4 ml/min per 100 ml,, p = 0.07). L-Arginine did not modify the response to sodium nitroprusside in either group.
Conclusions. The augmentation of endothelium-dependent vasodilation by L arginine, the nitric oxide precursor, is defective in hypercholesterolemic patients. This supports the concept of an abnormal endothelium derived nitric oxide system in hypercholesterolemia and indicates that decreased availability of nitric oxide substrate is not responsible for the impaired endothelial function in this condition.

AB Objectives. This study describes the prevalence and correlates of cardiac arrhythmias in older persons.
Background. Cardiac arrhythmias are frequent in selected samples of elderly persons, but their prevalence and association with cardiovascular disease and its risk factors have not been examined in a large population based sample.
Methods. In 1,372 participants in the Cardiovascular Health Study, a population-based study of cardiovascular disease risk factors, 24-h ambulatory electrocardiography was performed.
Results. Serious arrhythmias, such as sustained ventricular tachycardia and complete atrioventricular block, were uncommon, but brief episodes of ventricular tachycardia (greater than or equal to 3 consecutive ventricular depolarizations) were detected in 4.3% of women and 10.3 % of men. Ventricular arrhythmias as a group (excluding ectopic beats <15/h) were more common in men than in women but were not significantly associated with age. The same patterns were true for bradycardia/conduction blocks. Supraventricular arrhythmias as a group (excluding ectopic beats <15/h), in contrast, did not differ by gender but were strongly associated with increased age. Multivariate analyses showed associations with arrhythmias to differ by gender, with only one association (increased age and supraventricular arrhythmias) present in both women and men. Ventricular arrhythmias, particularly in men, were associated with a higher prevalence of cardiovascular disease and its risk factors and with subclinical disease, as measured by increased left ventricular mass and impaired left ventricular function.
Conclusions. Arrhythmias are common in the elderly, and their association with cardiovascular disease differs by gender. Although risk related to arrhythmias can only be determined by prospective study, such studies should have adequate power to examine potential gender differences in associations.

AB An important step in genetic recombination is DNA branch migration, the movement of the Holliday junction or exchange point between two homologous duplex DNAs. We have determined kinetic parameters of spontaneous branch migration as a function of temperature and ionic conditions. The branch migration substrates consist of two homologous duplex DNAs each having two single-strand tails at one end that are complementary to the corresponding single strand tails of the other duplex. Upon rapid annealing of the two duplex DNAs, a four-stranded intermediate is formed that has a Holliday junction at one end of the duplexes. Branch migration to the opposite end of the duplexes results in complete strand exchange and formation of two duplex products. The rate of branch migration is exceedingly sensitive to the type of metal ions present. In magnesium, branch migration is quite slow with a step time, tau, equal to 300 msec at 37 degrees C. Surprisingly, branch migration in the absence of magnesium was 1000 times faster. Despite this difference in rates, apparent activation energies for the branch migration step in the presence and absence of magnesium are similar. Since metal ions have a profound effect on the structure of the Holliday junction, it appears that the structure of the branch point plays a key role in determining the rate of spontaneous DNA branch migration. We discuss the role of proteins in promoting the branch migration step during homologous recombination.

AB In type I astrocytes from rat cerebral cortex, vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) at concentrations below 1 nM evoked an increase in intracellular calcium ion concentration. This response, however, was observed in only 18% of the astrocytes examined. alpha-Adrenergic stimulation with phenylephrine or norepinephrine also resulted in an intracellular calcium response in these cells and the threshold sensitivity of astrocytes to phenylephrine was vastly different from cell to cell. Treatment of these astrocytes with VIP (0.1 nM) together with phenylephrine at subthreshold concentrations produced large increases in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+](i)) and oscillations. The continued occupation of the alpha-adrenergic receptor was required for sustained synergism. Both alpha-receptor stimulation and stimulation with the mixture of agonists induced the cellular calcium response by triggering release of calcium from cellular stores, since the response persisted in the absence of extracellular calcium. Furthermore, thapsigargin pretreatment, which depletes intracellular stores, abolished the agonist-induced [Ca2+](i) response. VIP (0.1 nM) and phenylephrine were found to increase cellular levels of inositol phosphates; however, there was no apparent additivity in this response when the agonists were added together. These observations suggest a calcium-mediated second messenger system for the high-affinity VIP receptor in astrocytes and that alpha-adrenergic receptors act synergistically with the VIP receptor to augment an intracellular calcium signal. The synergism between diverse receptor types may constitute an important mode of cellular signaling in astroglia.

AB For many compounds (neurotrophic factors, antibodies, growth factors, genetic vectors, enzymes) slow diffusion in the brain severely limits drug distribution and effect after direct drug administration into brain parenchyma. We investigated convection as a means to enhance the distribution of the large and small molecules In-111-labeled transferrin (In-111-Tf; M(r), 80,000) and [C-14]sucrose (M(r), 359) over centimeter distances by maintaining a pressure gradient during interstitial infusion into white matter to generate bulk flow through the brain interstitium. The volume of distribution (V-d) containing greater than or equal to 1% concentration of infusion solution increased linearly with the infusion volume (V-i) for In-111-Tf(V-d/V-i, 6:1) and [C-14]sucrose (V-d/V-i, 13:1). Twenty-four hours after infusion, the distribution of In-111-Tf was increased and more homogeneous, and penetration into gray matter had occurred. By using convection to supplement simple diffusion, enhanced distribution of large and small molecules can be obtained in the brain while achieving drug concentrations orders of magnitude greater than systemic levels.

AB The way general anesthetics cause their clinically useful effects on the nervous system is not known. Since the principal determinant of the potency of these agents is their solubility in oil, the role of chemical structure in affecting anesthetic targets has been obscured. In this work, we use an intense beam of light (Tinklenberg, J. A., Segal, I. S., Tianzhi, G. and Maze, M. (1991) Ann. N.Y. Acad. Sci. 625, 532-539) to assess the effect of general anesthetics on the capacity of fruit flies to sense a noxious stimulus and respond to it. By examining the effect of halothane resistant (har) mutations on the potency of various volatile anesthetics in this assay, we establish similarities and differences between these agents that highlight the way chemical structure influences anesthetic action. In general, the potencies of anesthetics with different chemical structure are affected to different extents by one or more har mutations. However, three anesthetics of related structure (enflurane, isoflurane, and desflurane) show quantitatively indistinguishable alterations in potency in each of four genetic tests. These results not only identify important structural features of an esthetics but also place limits on the classical view that all anesthetics act at a common target.

AB Chronic active hepatitis caused by infection with hepatitis B virus, a DNA virus, is a major risk factor for human hepatocellular carcinoma. Since the oncogenicity of several DNA viruses is dependent on the interaction of their viral oncoproteins with cellular tumor-suppressor gene products, we investigated the interaction between hepatitis B virus X protein (HBX) and human wild-type p53 protein. HBX complexes with the wild-type p53 protein and inhibits its sequence-specific DNA binding in vitro. HBX expression also inhibits p53-mediated transcriptional activation in vivo and the in vitro association of p53 and ERCC3, a general transcription factor involved in nucleotide excision repair. Therefore, HBX may affect a wide range of p53 functions and contribute to the molecular pathogenesis of human hepatocellular carcinoma.

AB Histone octamers or histone H3/H4 tetramers were reconstituted onto either closed circular plasmids containing a single Xenopus 5S rRNA gene or a reiterated array of Lytechinus. 5S rRNA genes. All ''reconstitutes'' were found to undergo both Na+-dependent and Mg2+-dependent compaction, However, in each case, the compaction of nucleosomal templates containing H2A/H2B was much more extensive than compaction of templates containing only H3/H4 tetramers. inclusion of 5 mM MgCl2 in the transcription buffer increased the level of compaction of nucleosomal templates and led to a marked inhibition of both transcription initiation and elongation by RNA polymerase III. The inhibitory effect of Mg2+ was reduced significantly when DNA templates contained only H3/H4 tetramers, consistent with their lesser extent of Mg2+-dependent compaction. Thus, the removal of histones H2A/H2B from nucleosomal arrays enhances gene activity, in part because of decreased levels of chromatin folding.

AB The most important aspect of phase III randomized clinical trials is the selection of the experimental treatments to be tested. Often this decision is based on uncontrolled phase II trials. Substantial statistical attention has been focused on the design of phase III trials and for simple phase II trials, which determine whether a new drug has any anti-disease activity. Much less statistical effort has been devoted to the design and analysis of phase II trials for screening active experimental treatments to determine whether they are sufficiently active, relative to standard treatments, to warrant the conduct of a large randomized phase III trial. This problem is particularly acute in the development of drug combinations where many regimens are possible. We review several designs for such screening trials which we have developed.

AB In some multiple treatment arm clinical trials there is an order of preference for the treatments based on secondary considerations like toxicity or cost. In this paper, we consider the case where two or more treatments could have equal prior preference. This formulation includes the problem of comparing several equally preferred experimental treatments to one control, or the comparison of a combination with its components. Our decision procedures will guarantee a high selection probability for the correct treatment(s) when that selection is appropriate. We establish sample size requirements for our decision procedures which can be applied to clinical trials with normal, binomial, or right censored exponential endpoints.

AB Many chronic diseases are relapsing-remitting diseases, in which subjects alternate between periods with increasing and decreasing disease activity; relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis is an example. This paper proposes two classes of models for sequences of counts observed from a relapsing-remitting disease. In the first, the relapsing-remitting nature of the data is modelled by a Poisson time series with a periodic trend in the mean. In this approach, the mean is expressed as a function of a sinusoial trend and past observations of the time series. An algorithm that uses GLIM is developed, and it results in maximum-likelihood estimation for the amplitude, frequency and autoregressive effects. In the second class of models, the relapsing-remitting behaviour is described by a Poisson time series in which changes in the man follow a lat Markov chain. An EM algorithm is developed for maximum-likelihood estimation for this model. The two models are illustrated and compared with data from a study evaluating the use of serial magnetic resonance imaging as a measure of disease activity in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis.

ID OUTCOMES
AB When a repeated measures endpoint classifies people into several categories, marginal and transitional models provide two distinct approaches for data analysis. Marginal models estimate the probabilities of being in different categories over time. Transitional models estimate the probability of changing between any two given states during follow-up visits. This paper develops transitional and marginal models and applies them to a clinical trial of treatments of opiate addiction. The primary outcome was the presence or absence of opiates in a thrice weekly urine test, administered for 17 weeks. Subjects frequently miss visits, however, and in effect respond in one of three ways to a visit: missing, opiates present or opiates absent. Thus we have three possible states.
Our transitional model conditions on the current state and models the transition from state k to one of the other (0,...,K-1) states using a mutinomial legit model. This model generalizes previous work of Muenz and Rubinstein. Significant covariates in this model are predictive of state changes. Our marginal model views the state at each time point, rather than the transitions, as the primary response. Here we model the probability of being in state k with a multinomial legit model. Correlation within individuals over visits can be handled by applying the approach of Zeger and Liang or the bootstrap. Significant covariates in this model can include more 'global' summaries of a person such as extent of previous opiate use. Both marginal and transitional models are needed to provide a complete description of an individual's behaviour over time since global summaries might not affect transitions. Of particular substantive interest is how the opiate treatments affect both the marginal and transition probabilities.

AB The purpose of this research was to develop appropriate methods for analysing repeated ordinal categorical data that arose in an intervention trial to prevent oesophageal cancer. The measured response was the degree of oesophageal dysplasia at 2.5 and 6 years after randomization. An important feature was that some response measurements were missing, and the missingness was not 'completely at random' (MCAR). We show that standard likelihood-based methods and standard methods based on marginal estimating equations yield biased results, and we propose adaptations to both these approaches that yield valid inference under the weaker 'missing at random' (MAR) assumption. On the basis of efficiency calculations, simulation studies of finite sample properties, ease of computation, and flexibility for testing and exploring a range of treatment models, we recommend the adapted likelihood-based approach for problems of this type, in which there are abundant data for estimating parameters.

AB Clustered data are found in many different types of studies, for example, studies involving repeated measures, inter-rater agreement studies, household surveys, crossover designs and community randomized trials. Analyses based on population average and cluster specific models are commonly used for estimating treatment (exposure) effects with clustered data. This paper discusses conditions when one or both types of models are appropriate for estimating causal effects and when there is agreement between population average and cluster specific analyses. Applications of survey sampling methods to the robust estimation of standard errors of estimated treatment parameters are discussed.

AB Waclawiw and Liang introduced an estimating function-based approach for estimating the parameters of the classical two-stage random effects model for longitudinal data. In the present paper, the authors conduct a case study of the general approach for the binary response setting, where the fully specified parametric two-stage model with fixed and univariate random effects has an analytically intractable likelihood. With successful convergence of the algorithm, the authors propose a fully parametric bootstrapping method for deriving empirical Bayes confidence intervals for all model parameters. The bootstrapping approach is a blend of the estimating function technique with the developments of Laird and Louis. The estimating function approach to estimation and inference provides a general framework for the analytis of a wide variety of medical data, including the setting of small and varying numbers of discrete repeated observations. An application of the methdology to the analysis of binary responses in a crossover clinical trial is presented.

ID BREAST-CANCER; DISEASE
AB Screening tests are used frequently for control of diseases such as cancer. The increased survival time of screen-detected cases over those that are detected clinically may be due in part to 'lead time', or the length of time by which the disease is diagnosed earlier by screening in the presence or absence of any real extension in survival time. A realistic evaluation of screening needs to assess the true benefit of screening; that is, the length of time by which survival has been extended, beyond merely the time of the advanced diagnosis. The comparison of survival measured from time of entry between cases in a screening arm and in a control arm in randomized studies avoids the lead time bias. If the effects of average lead time and average benefit on survival are additive, these effects can be estimated by recognizing that (a) the difference in survival curves since time of diagnosis confounds benefit and lead time, but (b) the difference in survival curves since time of start of study involves benefit only. The method is evaluated on simulated data for its accuracy and may be used on data from randomized studies.

AB Although prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia are major health problems in U.S. men, little is known about the early stages of the natural history of prostate disease. A molecular biomarker called prostate specific antigen (PSA), together with a unique longitudinal bank of frozen serum, now allows a historic prospective study of changes in PSA levels for decades prior to the diagnosis of prostate disease. Linear mixed-effects regression models were used to test whether rates of change in PSA were different in men with and without prostate disease. In addition, since the prostate cancer cases developed their tumours at different (and unknown) times during their periods of follow-up, a piece-wise non-linear mixed-effects regression model was used to estimate the time when rapid increases in PSA were first observable beyond the background level of PSA change. These methods have a wide range of applications in biomedical research utilizing repeated measures data such as pharmacokinetic studies, crossover trials, growth and development studies, aging studies, and disease detection.

A CLM provides a unified approach for maximum likelihood inference which is applicable to a wide variety of problems involving incomplete multinomial data. By formulating a model as a CLM, one can simplify computation of maximum likelihood estimates and asymptotic standard errors. As an example, we use CLM to test marginal homogeneity for ordered categories, subject to both ignorable and non-ignorable missing-data mechanisms.

AB We propose an alternative to a long questionnaire that may increase quality while reducing the cost and effort of participants and researchers. In the 'partial questionnaire design', information about the exposure of interest is obtained from all subjects, while zero, one, or more disjoint subsets of questions about possible confounders are asked to randomly selected subgroups. The proposed analyses exploit the fact that the uncollected data can be considered to be missing at random. We show that it is possible to obtain high efficiency for estimating the effect of exposure of interest, adjusted for confounding, while substantially shortening average questionnaire length.

AB Some commonly used parametric and non-parametric methods for analysing repeated measures with incomplete observations are briefly reviewed. The performances of these methods in the presence of completely random, as well as informative censoring are compared in simulated experiments generated under the linear random effects model with parameter values derived from realistic examples. The effects of some moderate model deviations are also compared. The results indicate that in the presence of informative censoring, the usual parametric and nonparametric methods derived under the assumption of random censoring could either suffer severe loss of power or provide false positive results. The conditional linear model for informative censoring when used in conjunction with the bootstrap variance estimation procedure performed well under both random and informative censoring mechanisms. The non-parametric procedure obtained by ranking the individual summary statistics, although not as efficient as the conditional linear model with robust variance, also performed relatively well in most situations. Therefore, in situations in which informative censoring is likely to occur it is important to select the proper method of analysis to test for the informativeness of censoring and to account for its effects.

AB In population-based case-control studies, an attempt is made to identify all incident cases diagnosed in a specified population during a fixed time interval. Assuming that this goal is met allows one to obtain measures of risk other than relative risks. In this paper, we describe three approaches to estimate exposure-specific incidence rates. Approach 1 relies on estimating crude incidence rates of the disease in strata defined, for instance, by age and geographic area, and combining them with relative risk estimates from the case-control data. In approaches 2 and 3, baseline incidence rates and relative risks are estimated jointly. Approach 2 is based on a pseudo-likelihood, while, in approach 3, the problem is regarded as a missing data problem and a full likelihood is maximized. We applied these three approaches to a study of bladder cancer. Our three sets of estimates of exposure-specific incidence rates were in close agreement, while there appeared to be greater precision with approaches 2 and 3.

AB New methodology for early stopping of observational epidemiologic studies is developed. To indicate the likelihood of a positive result at the end of a study, the conditional power (CP) is calculated using an approach similar to that of Halperin et al. Given the current result, the conditional probability of a positive result for the entire study is determined. An expression relating the new approach to an approach given by Lan and Wittes is derived. As an example, the CP is calculated based on information from the first third of a matched case-control study embedded in an epidemiological study.

AB Among sexually active:couples who are not using contraception, there is considerable heterogeneity in fertility, even among those who eventually achieve pregnancy. The number of menstrual cycles required, measured in integer time, is greatly overdispersed compared to the geometric, suggesting that the per cycle probability of conception varies considerably among couples. Some of this variability may reflect the effect of reproductive toxicants on fertility, and studies of time to pregnancy can be useful in identifying such toxic effects. We describe models for analysing time-to-pregnancy data, and discuss seven sources of bias that can lead the reproductive epidemiologist to spurious conclusions. Certain analytic and design strategies can help protect against some of the pitfalls,

AB Monte Carlo methods are used to evaluate the operating characteristics of several trend tests for comparing incidence rates of occult tumours. The candidate tests are applicable in long-term animal experiments that have just one sacrifice time and no information on cause of death. When survival decreases with dose and the tumour is lethal, the tests that do not adjust for survival or that assume tumours are non-lethal behave conservatively, whereas the test that assumes tumours are rapidly lethal rejects the hypothesis of equal incidence rates too frequently. The only test which consistently operates at the correct level is one that specifies a constant difference between the death rates for animals with and without the tumour. Surprisingly, the test that specifies a constant ratio of these death rates often is conservative. Finally, a test based on a simple modification of the unadjusted test, which accounts for differential mortality by scaling down the size of the risk set, performs reasonably well in many cases. Among the tests that operate at the proper level, the constant risk difference test consistently exhibits high power across a wide range of situations.

ID CLINICAL-TRIALS; RANDOMIZED TRIALS; OVERVIEWS
AB I describe a meta-analysis of animal experiments designed to investigate the effects of dietary fat intake upon mammary tumour development. These experiments involve one or more of three types of dietary manipulation: (i) varying the proportion of fat in the diet; (ii) varying the source of fat; and (iii) varying the amount of energy consumed. I use linear logistic regression models to investigate questions about the relative effects of fat and total energy intake upon mammary tumour development and about the effects of different sources of fat. The results of these analyses are presented and discussed. The regression models employed are characterized by the inclusion of an experiment 'effect' to ensure that estimated nutrient effects are based only upon within-experiment comparisons. Homogeneity of nutrient effects across experiments is assumed. The method differs from the usual meta-analysis of clinical trials in that the nutrient effects may not be estimable from each individual experiment, but only from combinations of experiments. This poses problems for the development of a model that allows heterogeneity of nutrient effects.

AB The National Cancer Institute currently tests approximately 400 compounds per week against a panel of human tumour cell lines in order to identify potential anti-cancer drugs. We describe several approaches, based on these in vitro data, to the problem of identifying the primary biochemical mechanism of action of a compound. Using linear and non-parametric discriminant procedures and cross-validation, we find that accurate identification of the mechanism of action is achieved for approximately 90 per cent of a diverse collection of 141 known compounds, representing six different mechanistic categories. We demonstrate that two-dimensional graphical displays of the compounds in terms of the initial three principal components (of the original data) result in suggestive visual clustering according to mechanism of action. Finally, we compare the classification accuracy of the statistical discrimination procedures with the accuracy obtained from a neural network approach and, for our example, we find that the results obtained from the various approaches are similar.

ID CORRELATION-COEFFICIENT; RELIABILITY
AB An assessment of measurement agreement made by devices, laboratories, or raters is important in medical practice and research. The setting in which each randomly selected subject is rated by the same two raters raises assorted questions regarding rater agreement. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) is one measure of reliability. The paired t-test can be used to evaluate the overall ratings or bias of the two raters, while their variances can be assessed with Pitman's test. The Bradley-Blackwood test can be used for a simultaneous test of their means and variances. A single method that provides results for these approaches is proposed and the bivariate confidence ellipse is suggested to provide boundaries for dispersion.

ID RANK-SUM STATISTICS; MEDICAL-RESEARCH
AB Various tests have been proposed for the two-sample problem when the alternative is more general than a simple shift in location: non-parametric tests; O'Brien's generalized t and rank sum tests; and other tests related to the t. We show that the generalized tests are directly related to non-parametric tests proposed by Lepage. As a result, we obtain a wider, more flexible class of O'Brien-type procedures which inherit the level robustness property of non-parametric tests. We have also computed the tests' empirical sizes and powers under several models. The non-parametric procedures and the related O'Brien-type tests are valid and yield good power in the settings investigated. They are preferable to the t-test and related procedures whose type I errors differ noticeably from nominal size for skewed and long-tailed distributions.

ID MODELS
AB Blomqvist's problem of studying the relationship between change and initial value in a linear growth curve setting is reformulated from a random effects model perspective. First, a maximum likelihood estimate of the between-individual covariance matrix for a simple linear regression model with stochastic parameters is obtained via an EM algorithm as discussed by Laird and Ware, Second, the regression coefficient of the individual-specific slopes on the individual-specific intercepts is estimated as a ratio of elements of the between-individual covariance matrix as discussed by Zucker et al. Then a Fieller's type confidence interval for this ratio is proposed. Discussion is facilitated by recognizing the Laird-Ware model as a special case of a more general model discussed by Hocking.

ID T-TEST; ROBUSTNESS; VARIANCE; SYMMETRY
AB Conventional wisdom suggests that for small data sets having substantial skew, one should attempt to determine the correct distributional form, if possible, and apply statistical methods appropriate for that distribution. Transformations such as the log or square root are often used. If an appropriate distributional form cannot be determined, a distribution-free procedure such as a rank transformation or a randomization test procedure can be used. To better appreciate the effect of such alternatives on both the type I error and power of detecting differences between treatment groups, simulation studies were conducted for responses having specific gamma G(r, theta) and log-normal In(M, V) distributions. The gamma and log-normal distributions were selected so that they had the same first two moments. A simple two group design was assumed. The reference group always had an average disease level mu = 3.0 (mu = r theta for gamma, mu = M for log-normal), and the treatment group always had means whose reductions ranged from 0 per cent to 50 per cent. The effect of distributional type and the degree of skewness was investigated by varying the population parameter values. Six statistical test procedures were compared for the gamma distributions. All test procedures were robust relative to the type I error. The UMP test based on a ratio of sample means produced the greatest power for all combinations of n, r and R(T) The power losses associated with the randomization test, the t-test on original scale, and the t-test on the square root scale were very small, (3 per cent to 6 per cent in absolute value) for n = 10 and 15, and less than 2 per cent for group sizes of 25 or more. The power loss associated with the t-test on the log scale was much larger, ranging from 5 per cent to 10 per cent smaller power than the t-test on original scale. The Wilcoxon rank test produced similar results to that of the LOG t-test for small samples. The power for the shifted LOG (X + c) test increased monotonically to the asymptotic value of the ORIG t-test. The same five test procedures based on differences in sample means were then compared for the corresponding log-normal distributions. The UMP test, that is, LOG(X), produced the highest power. There was very little power lost for the SORT t-test. The loss in power varied between 2 per cent and 5 per cent for the RANK test. The RANK test performed considerably better than the t-test on the original scale. In contrast to the results for the gamma the power for the shifted LOG (X + c) test had its maximum for c = 0, and decreased monotonically to the asymptotic value of the ORIG t-test.
The results suggest that statistical inferences can be highly dependent on the distributional form and the scale of measurement of the response used in the statistical analysis.

AB Background: Cytokines and growth factors are soluble proteins that regulate the development and activities of many cell types. One group of these proteins have structures based on a four-helix bundle, though this similarity is not apparent from amino acid sequence comparisons. An understanding of how diverse sequences can adopt the same fold would be useful for recognizing and aligning distant homologs and for applying structural information gained from one protein to other sequences.
Results: We have approached this problem by comparing the five known structures which adopt a granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)-like, or short-chain fold: interleukin (IL)-4, GM-CSF, IL-2, IL-5, and macrophage colony-stimulating factor. The comparison reveals a common structural framework of five segments including 31 inner-core and 30 largely exposed residues. Buried polar interactions found in each protein illustrate how complementary substitutions maintain protein stability and may help specify unique core packing. A profile based on the known structures is not sufficient to guarantee accurate amino acid sequence alignments with other family members. Comparisons of the conserved short-chain framework with growth hormone define the optimal structural alignment.
Conclusions: Our results are useful for extrapolating functional results among the short-chain cytokines and growth hormone, and provide a foundation for similar characterization of other subfamilies. These results also show that the placement of polar residues at different buried positions in each protein complicates sequence comparisons, and they document a challenging test case for methods aimed at recognizing and aligning distant homologs.

AB Background: Cytochrome c peroxidase from yeast is a soluble haem-containing protein found in the mitochondrial electron transport chain where it probably protects against toxic peroxides. The aim of this study was to obtain a reliable structure for the doubly oxidized transient intermediate (termed compound I) in the reaction of cytochrome c peroxidase with hydrogen peroxide. This intermediate contains a semistable free radical on Trp191, and an oxyferryl haem group.
Results: Compound I was produced in crystals of yeast cytochrome c peroxidase by reacting the crystalline enzyme with hydrogen peroxide in a flow cell. The reaction was monitored by microspectrophotometry and Laue crystallography in separate experiments. A nearly complete conversion to compound I was achieved within two minutes of the addition of hydrogen peroxide, and the concentration of the intermediate remained at similar levels for an additional half an hour. The structure of the intermediate was determined by Laue diffraction. The refined Laue structure for compound I shows clear structural changes at the peroxide-binding site but no significant changes at the radical site. The photographs were processed with a new software package (LEAP), overcoming many of the former problems encountered in extracting structural information from Laue exposures.
Conclusions: The geometry of the haem environment in this protein allows structural changes to be extremely small, similar in magnitude to those observed for the Fe2+/Fe3+ transition in cytochrome c. The results suggest that these molecules have evolved to transfer electrons with a minimal need for structural adjustment.

AB Background: Total and lipoprotein cholesterol levels continue to be predictors of coronary heart disease risk in men and women over 65 years old. Cholesterol-lowering trials, however, while sometimes including such subjects, have not concentrated on this age group. The Cholesterol Reduction in Seniors Program was a five-center pilot study to assess feasibility of recruitment and efficacy of cholesterol lowering in this age group.
Methods: The study was a randomized, double-masked clinical trial with placebo, 20-mg lovastatin, and 40-mg lovastatin arms. Major efforts were made to recruit women and minorities. Participants were followed up for 1 year on a cholesterol-lowering diet plus placebo or study drug. End points were changes in blood lipid levels. Data on other blood chemistry values, as well as quality-of-life measures and coronary heart disease morbidity and mortality, were also collected.
Results: Four hundred thirty-one subjects with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels greater than 4.1 and less than 5.7 mmol/L (159 and 221 mg/dL) were randomized, of whom 71% were women and 21% were African Americans; the mean age was 71 years. In the 20- and 40-mg lovastatin groups, total cholesterol levels fell 17% and 20%; low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels fell 24% and 28%; triglyceride levels fell 4.4% and 9.9%, respectively. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels rose 7.0% and 9.0%, respectively. No changes were observed in the placebo group. Gender, race, and age did not significantly affect responses. Coronary heart disease morbidity and mortality data were collected but not analyzed for this study.
Conclusion: Older subjects of both genders and a variety of racial and ethnic groups can be successfully recruited into a cholesterol-lowering trial. Lovastatin has effects similar to those reported in younger subjects in previous controlled trials. There is little advantage to the higher lovastatin daily dose. Side effects were remarkably low in all groups.

AB Background: Although the cause of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) is unknown, its unique epidemiology suggests that an infectious, sexually transmitted agent or agents may contribute to its pathogenesis.
Methods: To assess the natural history of KS associated with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and to identify factors associated with its development, data were analyzed from a multicenter, observational cohort study of 1044 persons with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome or the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-related complex and a total CD4 cell count of less than 0.25 x 10(9)/L who were treated with zidovudine between April 1987 and April 1988. Records were reviewed bimonthly. Follow-up continued for 2 years or until death.
Results: One hundred thirty-one patients (13%) had KS at study enrollment, and 143 developed KS (14%) during follow-up, with a 2-year actuarial risk of 21%. The probability of KS at 2 years for patients with initial CD4 cell counts of less than 0.1X10(9)/L was 25%, compared with 15% for those with counts of 0.1X10(9)/L or more. By logistic regression, a baseline CD4 cell count of less than 0.1x10(9)/L (relative odds, 1.43; 95% confidence interval, 1.04 to 1.95), homosexuality (relative odds, 3.71; 95% confidence interval, 1.82 to 7.56), cytomegalovirus disease (relative odds, 1.56; 95% confidence interval, 1.01 to 2.41), and white race (relative odds, 1.64; 95% confidence interval, 1.11 to 2.43) were independently associated with KS. Median survival after KS was 408 days, and KS was an independent predictor of death (relative hazard, 1.78; 95% confidence interval, 1.26 to 2.52).
Conclusions: Kaposi's sarcoma contributes to human immunodeficiency virus-related morbidity and mortality, especially among male homosexuals. This large cohort study provides further evidence for an association between risk for cytomegalovirus infection and KS.

AB The present work employed immunocytochemical techniques and examined the distribution and cytological features of the AMPA receptor subunits, GluR2/3 and GluR1 within the entorhinal cortex of non-demented elderly (NC), patients with neuropathological and clinical verification of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and patients without a clinical history of dementia yet exhibiting sufficient quantities of senile plaques to meet neuropathological criteria of Alzheimer's disease (HPND). In NC cases, GluR2/3-immunolabeled neurons were abundantly distributed throughout layers II, III, V and VI of the entorhinal cortex. In contrast, GluR1-positive cells were comparatively sparse in number and largely restricted to layers V and VI. In AD, GluR2/3- and GluR1-labeled neurons were markedly reduced. Similarly, adjacent Niss1-stained tissue sections revealed substantial cell loss in the entorhinal cortex thus providing a reasonable explanation for the loss of these receptor subunits. Importantly, a dramatic loss of GluR2/3- and GluR1-immunolabeled neurons is also observed in the HPND cases, although examination of Niss1-stained tissue sections reveals little if any evidence of cell loss. The latter data suggest that a 'down-regulation' of these receptor subunits occurs prior to the actual loss of these cells. Furthermore, we hypothesize that the decrease of specific AMPA receptor subunits may influence neuronal vulnerability via a mechanism involving increased intracellular calcium and the destabilization of intracellular calcium homeostasis.

DE PROTEIN DENATURATION; PROTEIN FOLDING; MOLTEN GLOBULE STATE

AB Analysis of published data on conformational transitions in relatively small proteins shows that the slopes of these transitions are proportional to the protein molecular weight. It is true both for transitions from the native (N) to the unfolded (U) states (when protein denaturation is coupled to its unfolding) and for transitions from the native to the molten globule (MG) states and from the molten globule to the unfolded state (when protein denaturation is decoupled from protein unfolding). This is precisely the behaviour predicted by thermodynamics for first order phase transitions ('all-or-none' transitions) in small systems. It follows that N --> U, N --> MG and MG --> U transitions in proteins are all of the 'all-or-none' type. Thus the molten globule state of protein molecules is separated by an 'all-or-none' transition both from the native and the unfolded state, i.e. the molten globule state is a third thermodynamic state of protein molecules in addition to the two previously established states - the native and the unfolded.

AB The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3)-sensitive Ca2+ store role of the secretory vesicles of adrenal medullary chromaffin cells is attributed to the presence of high capacity, low affinity Ca2+ binding protein chromogranin A. Chromogranin A has recently been shown to interact with the protein component(s) on the intraluminal side of the secretory vesicle membrane at the intravesicular pH of 5.5 but to dissociate from them at the near physiological pH of 7.5. Further, one of the chromogranin A-interacting membrane proteins was tentatively identified as the IP3 receptor. Therefore, the pH-dependent potential interaction of the intraluminal loop domains of the IP3 receptor with chromogranin A was studied by analytical ultracentrifugation utilizing synthetic intraluminal loop peptides of the IP3 receptor labeled with 5-hydroxy-tryptophan at the N-terminus as a chromophore. One of the intraluminal loop domains was found to interact with chromogranin A at pH 5.5 but not at pH 7.5, suggesting the importance of the intraluminal loop domain in transmitting Ca2+ mobilization signals to chromogranin A.

AB Mutations of the extracellular domain of the insulin receptor impair processing and transport of receptors to the plasma membrane. We have previously reported that a mutation substituting Val for Phe(382) in the alpha-subunit of the insulin receptor impairs intracellular processing and insulin-induced autophosphorylation of the mutant receptor. In this investigation, we have generated two independent mutations of amino acids Phe(381) and phe(382) of the insulin receptor: Val for Phe(381) and Leu for Phe(382). These substitutions cause a slight impairment of intracellular processing and transport of the mutant receptors. Furthermore, insulin-dependent internalization of the mutant receptors is unaffected by these mutations. Thus, of the three substitutions studied to date, Val for Phe(382) is the only mutation of the Phe(382)-Phe(382) sequence that causes a major defect in posttranslational processing of the receptor.

AB Until now, the only cancers that have been strongly associated with AIDS are Kaposi's sarcoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. We used a linkage between AIDS (50 050 reports) and cancer (859 398 reports) registries in seven health departments in the USA to investigate the association between HIV infection and epidermoid anal cancer.
We compared the numbers of observed cases and expected cases, calculated from general population rates with adjustment for age, sex, and race. The relative risk of anal cancer at and after AIDS diagnosis was 84.1 (95% CI 46.4-152) among homosexual patients (11 cases) and 37.7 (9.4-151) among non-homosexual patients (2 cases). The relative risk of anal cancer up to 5 years before the AIDS diagnosis (23 cases) was also increased; it was 13.9 (6.6-29.2) in the period 2-5 years before AIDS and 27.4 (15.9-47.2) during the 2 years before AIDS diagnosis (p for trend = 0.004). Among homosexual men, the relative risk of anal cancer was inversely related to age at AIDS onset (p for trend < 0.001). Excess risks were found in all geographical areas.
This study establishes a strikingly increased risk of anal cancer among people with AIDS, These data are consistent with a previously hypothesised association between HIV-induced immunodeficiency and anal cancer development, but because homosexual men were at increased risk of anal cancer even before the AIDS epidemic, we cannot say how much of the increased risk is attributable to HIV infection. Nevertheless, clinicians should be aware that AIDS patients have an increased risk of anal cancer.

AB Human chromosomes 6 and 21 are both necessary to confer sensitivity to human interferon gamma (Hu-IFN-gamma), as measured by induction of class I human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and protection against encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) infection. Whereas human chromosome 6 encodes the Hu-IFN-gamma receptor, human chromosome 21 encodes accessary factors for generating biological activity through the Hu-IFN-gamma receptor. Probes from a genomic clone were used to identity cDNA clones expressing a species-specific accessory factor. These cDNA clones are able to substitute for human chromosome 21 to reconstitute the Hu-IFN-gamma receptor-mediated induction of class I HLA antigens. However, the factor encoded by the cDNA does not confer full antiviral protection against EMCV, confirming that an additional factor encoded on human chromosome 21 is required for reconstitution of antiviral activity against EMCV. We conclude that this accessory factor belongs to a family of such accessory factors responsible for different actions of IFN-gamma.

AB Interleukin-4 (IL-4) treatment of 32D cells overexpressing insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) causes prompt tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-l. Transfection of truncation mutants of the human IL-4 (huIL-4) receptor into 32D-IRS-1 cells demonstrated that the region from amino acid 437-557 is important for IL-4 signaling. This region of the IL-4 receptor (IL-4R) contains the motif (488)PL-X4-NPXYXSXSD(502) (insulin/IL-4R [I4R]) found in the insulin and insulin-like growth factor 1 receptors. Mutation of Y497 to F yielded receptors that caused little or no IRS-1 phosphorylation in response to huIL-4 when expressed in 32D-IRS-1 cells. Most cell lines expressing Y497F also failed to proliferate in response to huIL-4. Furthermore, a glutathione-S-transferase fusion protein containing the I4R motif-bound IRS-1,tyrosine kinase(s), and other unidentified phosphoproteins with molecular sizes of 140, 80, and 55 kd. Thus, the central tyrosine of the I4R motif has a major role in IL-4-mediated signal transduction in 32D cells.

AB The effects of 7 days repeated cocaine administration on the dynamics of dopamine release and metabolism in four rat brain regions (frontal cortex, hypothalamus, nucleus accumbens and striatum) were evaluated 1 week (long-term effects) after the final cocaine injection. 3-Methoxytyramine and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) rates of formation were respectively used to assess the dynamics of dopamine release and metabolism. Consistent with a previous report, cocaine withdrawal was associated with marked reductions in DOPAC rate of formation in the frontal cortex and hypothalamus but not in the nucleus accumbens or the striatum. Dopamine release as indicated by 3-methoxytyramine steady-state concentration and its rate of formation was normal in air four brain regions 1 week after repeated cocaine exposure. The ratios of 3-methoxytyramine rate of formation to that of DOPAC were calculated and found to be increased in the frontal cortex and hypothalamus suggesting dopamine reuptake inhibition, at least 1 week after cocaine withdrawal, continued to be depressed in these regions. It is concluded that repeated cocaine has no long-term effect on dopamine release but produces selective long-term reductions in dopamine turnover in frontal cortex and hypothalamus. Cocaine withdrawal is therefore better associated with changes in dopamine turnover than with its release.

AB Insulin like growth factor-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) is an important member of a family of proteins which binds IGF peptides and modulates their biological actions. In this study, we describe an acid-activated IGFBP-3 protease in media derived from a variety of human cell lines. Radiolabeled IGFBP-3 remained intact during incubation (pH 5.5-8) in media conditioned by normal and transformed human fibroblasts, MG-63 osteoblastic cells, and breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and Hs578T. However, acidification of the conditioned medium samples (pH < 5.5) resulted in I-125-IGFBP-3 hydrolysis and the appearance of specific radiolabeled fragments. No proteolysis of I-125-IGFBP-3 occurred during incubation in unconditioned medium at neutral or acid pH. Estrogen treatment of estrogen receptor-positive MCF-7 cells enhanced acid-activatable IGFBP-3 proteolysis in the cell conditioned medium but had no effect on proteolytic activity in estrogen receptor negative Hs578T cells. The cell-derived IGFBP-3 protease was identified as the aspartic proteinase cathepsin D, based on acidic pH optimum, inhibition by pepstatin, distinctive proteolytic fragment pattern, and immunoreactivity with cathepsin D antisera. Furthermore, immunodepletion of cathepsin D effectively attenuated acid-activated IGFBP-3 proteolysis. These data suggest a role for cathepsin D in the regulation of cellular IGF action by virtue of its potential to alter the structure/function of IGFBP-3.

AB In this study, we have examined the relationship between epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma 1 (PLC-gamma 1) and its translocation from the cytosol to the Triton X-100-insoluble cytoskeleton fraction in rat hepatocytes. The translocation of PLC-gamma 1 was specific for EGF stimulation, because a similar effect was not observed with insulin or vasopressin. EGF caused a transient increase of PLC activity in the cytoskeleton fraction which could be abolished by immunoprecipitating PLC-gamma 1. Tyrosine phosphorylated PLC-gamma 1 was seen only in the cytoskeleton fraction, suggesting that tyrosine phosphorylation is required for PLC-gamma 1 translocation to the cytoskeleton. This process may involve binding of PLC-gamma 1 to actin filaments, since actin was immunoprecipitated together with PLC-gamma 1 in the cytoskeleton after EGF treatment. EGF-induced translocation of PLC-gamma 1 to the cytoskeleton was not inhibited by pertussis toxin, but Gi alpha was translocated in an EGF dependent manner, suggesting that the interaction of PLC-gamma 1 with its activated Gi-protein is downstream from both PLC-gamma 1 tyrosine phosphorylation and its translocation to the cytoskeleton. Taken together, the present studies indicate that EGF-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1, its association with the cytoskeleton, and its interaction with activated Gi alpha protein are all obligatory for PLC-gamma 1 activation in hepatocytes.

AB The human interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6) was differentially expressed on IL-6-dependent (U266 and SKO-007) and -independent (RPMI8226) myeloma cells as well as melanoma cells (A375-C6) that are growth-inhibited by IL-6. U266 and SKO-007 cells expressed four distinct IL-6R complexes (molecular masses of 100, 120, 145, and 165 kDa) as revealed by affinity cross-linking of iodinated IL-6. RPMI8226 and A375-C6 cells primarily expressed the 165-kDa complex relative to the others. Immunoprecipitation and antibody competition studies showed that the 100- and 120-kDa complexes contained the gp80 subunit, whereas the 145- and 165-kDa complexes contained the gp130 subunit of the IL-6R. Assay solubilized U266 plasma membrane proteins by affinity cross-linking or ligand blotting revealed that only gp80 bound IL-6 specifically. Induction of an IL-6 response was associated with ligand-induced down-regulation of gp130 and was inhibited by neutralizing antin-IL-6 antibodies. Furthermore, the relative ratios of gp80 to gp130 determined the binding kinetics of the IL-6R, yielding high- and low affinity binding sites by Scatchard plots. Our data imply that distinct IL-6 bioactivities are based upon the differential expression and regulation by IL-6 of its ligand binding (gp80) and signal-transducing (gp130) receptor subunits.

AB Although a pathway that requires sequential activation of Ras, Raf, and MAP kinase kinase has been proposed as the major mechanism for stimulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase), alternative pathways also exist. A wide variety of extracellular stimuli have been shown to activate MAP kinase; however, the precise mechanisms by which these stimuli mediate the signaling events have not been elucidated. Using a Balb/c-derived cell line expressing a dominant-negative mutant of Raf, we determined whether Raf is required for the activation of MAP kinase by growth factors, phorbol esters, and calcium. Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), epidermal growth factor (EGF), and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate activated Ras in both mutant and control cells. However, stimulation of MAP kinase by IGF-I was nearly abolished in the dominant-negative Raf mutant. Stimulation of MAP kinase by the Ca2+ mobilizer thapsigargin was also inhibited in the presence of the Raf mutant. In contrast, EGF and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate remained potent stimulators of MAP kinase in the dominant-negative Raf cells. The activation of MAP kinase by these stimuli can be further distinguished by differential requirements for Ca2+ and protein kinase C. These results suggest that Raf is required for the activation of MAP kinase by IGF-I and calcium, whereas EGF and possibly phorbol eaters may employ alternative Raf-independent pathways for MAP kinase activation.

AB Evidence is presented that the radical observed upon reaction of myoglobin with hydrogen peroxide is a peroxyl radical. Simulation of this spectrum gives principal values for the g tenser of g(x) = 2.0357, g(y) = 2.0082, and g(z) = 2.0016, which are consistent with those of a peroxyl radical. Use of molecular oxygen isotopically labeled with O-17 confirmed that the radical observed was a peroxyl radical. Removal of oxygen from the incubation by use of glucose and glucose oxidase revealed two radicals, one at g(iso) = 2.0028 and the other at g(iso) = 2.0073. Addition of various amounts of the spin trap 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide revealed that the spin trap and oxygen compete for the same radical site. Four model substrates, glutathione, styrene, arachidonic acid and linoleic acid, were individually added to both the aerobic and anoxic systems. Glutathione reacted with the peroxyl radical, reducing its intensity by 98%, and entirely eliminated the g(iso) = 2.0028 line from the spectrum of the anoxic incubation. Styrene, arachidonic acid and linoleic acid reacted with the peroxyl radical, reducing its amplitude by 84, 57, and 35%, respectively, but did not decrease the amplitude of either radical species in the anoxic incubation. The g(iso) = 2.0028 species detected in the anoxic incubation appears to be the original radical site to which molecular oxygen binds to form the peroxyl radical. This myoglobin-derived peroxyl radical species is responsible for the advent of lipid peroxidation as proposed in ischemia/repurfusion injury, as well as other reactions, as exemplified by the O-2-dependent epoxidation of styrene.

AB The association of a 94,000-Da viral polypeptide, called Rap94, with 30-40% of the multisubunit DNA-dependent RNA polymerase molecules purified from infectious vaccinia virus particles was established by immunoaffinity chromatography. The submolar amount of Rap94, relative to RNA polymerase, was confirmed by quantitative immunoblotting of total virion extracts. Only the RNA polymerase molecules containing Rap94 could functionally interact with VETF, the vaccinia virus early transcription factor, to transcribe a double-stranded DNA template regulated by a viral early stage promoter. Rap94 was required for the synthesis of short oligoribonucleotides and for the formation of stable ter nary transcription complexes. With a nonspecific single stranded DNA template, however, the Rap94-deficient polymerase had greater catalytic activity than the Rap94-containing polymerase. These data support a model in which Rap94 confers specificity to the RNA polymerase for promoters of early stage genes.

AB Insulin initiates its biological response by binding to the extracellular domain of the insulin receptor. The N-terminal half of the alpha-subunit contains several repeats of a loosely conserved motif consisting of a central glycine plus several hydrophobic amino acid residues upstream from the glycine, Hy phi Xaa-Xaa-Hy phi-Xaa-Hy phi Hy phi-Xaa-Gly (where Hy phi represents a hydrophobic amino acid residue). This structural motif has been proposed to be important in determining the three-dimensional structure of the insulin binding domain. We have identified two naturally occurring mutant alleles of the insulin receptor gene in an insulin-resistant patient, substitution of Ala for Val(28) and Arg for Gly(366). The mu- tations alter conserved amino acid residues in two distinct repeats of the structural motif described above, When mutant cDNAs were expressed in NIH-3T3 cells, both mutations severely impaired proteolytic processing of the proreceptor to mature alpha and beta-subunits. Transport of mutant receptors to the plasma membrane was also impaired. However, the minority (<1O%) of receptors that were eventually transported to the plasma membrane retained the ability to bind insulin with nor- mal affinity and to undergo insulin-stimulated phosphorylation. In conclusion, the effects of these naturally occurring mutations provide experimental support for the importance of the conserved glycine-containing structural motifs described above. By interrupting these structural motifs, the Ala(28) and Arg(366) mutations prevent normal folding of the insulin receptor alpha-subunit, thereby inhibiting post-translational processing and intracellular transport of the mutant receptors.

AB Pseudomonas exotoxin A (PE) is a three-domain protein in which domain Ia is involved in recognition of receptors on eukaryotic target cells, domain II promotes translocation of PE into the cytosol, and domain III en- zymatically ADP-ribosylates elongation factor 2. Modification of proteins with polyethylene glycol (PEG) has been shown to prolong circulating plasma lifetime and may reduce or eliminate immunogenicity. However, in the case of toxins, PEG may interfere with or block toxin activity. To investigate the effect of polyethylene glycolation on specific residues located on the surface of PE domain II, we substituted cysteine, for each of the five most exposed surface amino acids (H276, E282, N306, R313, and E327) in domain II. These cysteines can serve as unique sites for PEG modification. The PE-Cys proteins retained most of their cytotoxicity even when the free sulfhydryl group was blocked by 5,5'-dithiobis(nitrobenzoic acid) or glutathione. When the PE-Cys proteins were conjugated with ovalbumin using a cleavable disulfide linkage, cytotoxicity was retained, but it was lost with a non-cleavable thioether linkage. In contrast, cytotoxicity was maintained when PE-Cys mutants were coupled to 5- or 20-kDa mPEG, using either a disulfide or a thioether linkage. Unexpectedly in some cases, the thioether conjugate was more active than the disulfide linkage. Pharmacokinetic studies on one of the polyethylene glycolated molecules (R313C) showed that the mean residence time (t(1/2) was prolonged to 72 min, compared to 20 min for unpolyethylene glycolated PECys(R313C). These studies show it is possible to derivatize PE at specific residues in domain II, maintain significant cytotoxic activity, and alter pharmacokinetics. These studies also suggest that large mPEG molecules can be translocated to the cytosol while still attached to domain II of PE.

AB (4-Nitrophenoxy)ethylene oxide (1a) (2-chloro-4-nitrophenoxy)ethylene oxide (1b), and (4-phenylphenoxy) ethylene oxide (1c) were synthesized. Rates of acid-catalyzed, noncatalyzed, and hydroxide ion-catalyzed reactions for is and Ib and rates of acid-catalyzed and noncatalyzed hydrolysis of 1c were measured in 0.1 M NaClO4 solutions. Acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of 1a is ca. 6200 times faster than that of 4-nitrostyrene oxide, and that of 1c is 57 times faster than that of styrene oxide. These increased rates are attributed to stabilization of developing positive charge on the acetal carbon by the phenoxy oxygen that is present in the substituted phenoxyethylene oxides but not in the styrene oxides. The pH-rate profiles for reaction of 1a and 1b in 1.0 M KCl solutions over the pH range 2-14 were determined. At intermediate pH, the rates of reaction of 1a and 1b in 1.0 M KCl solutions are ca. 6-8 times faster than the corresponding rates in 0.1 M NaClO4 solutions. From rate and product studies, these increased reaction rates in KCl solutions were attributed to bimolecular attack of chloride ion at the methylene carbon of the epoxide moiety, The reactivity of 1a is greater than that of 1b toward acid-catalyzed hydrolysis but less than that of 1b in both noncatalyzed and hydroxide ion-catalyzed hydrolysis. Compound 1c reacts about 73-fold faster than 1a in acid and about 11-fold faster in the noncatalyzed reaction. From reactivity considerations, it is proposed that H2O and HO- also add as nucleophiles to the methylene carbon of the epoxide moieties of 1a and 1b, whereas H2O adds to the acetal carbon of 1c.

TI SYNTHESIS AND SOLVOLYSIS OF ACRIDINE 1,2-OXIDE AND 3,4-OXIDE -
CRYSTAL-STRUCTURE OF ACRIDINE 1,2-OXIDE
SO JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY

DT Article
ID REGION ARENE OXIDES; METABOLISM
AB Acridine 1,2- and 3,4-oxides were synthesized from 3,4- and 1,2-dihydroacridine, respectively, via intermediate bromohydrin acetates. Crystals of acridine 1,2-oxide were sufficiently stable to allow the first determination of X-ray crystallographic structural features of a non-K-region arene oxide. Aqueous alkaline hydrolysis of the acridine 1,2- and 3,4-oxides produced trans-1,2-dihydrorxy-1,2-dihydroacridine and trans-3,4-dihydroxy-3,4-dihydroacridine, respectively. The former dihydrodiol was also obtained by a six-step synthesis from 3,4-dihydroacridine. Acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of acridine 1,2-oxide yielded the corresponding cis- and trans-1,2-dihydrodiols (20%) in addition to 1-hydroxy- (12%) and 2-hydroxyacridine (68%). By contrast, solvolysis of acridine 3,4-oxide under acid conditions gave 4-hydroxyacridine as the exclusive product. pH-rate profiles for hydrolysis of the acridine oxides in 1:9 dioxane-water at 25 degrees C were compared with those for anthracene 1,2-oxide, naphthalene 1,2-oxide, and quinoline 5,6- and 7,8-oxides. Second-order rate constants for the hydronium ion-catalyzed ring opening of anthracene 1,2-, acridine 3,4-, and acridine 1,2-oxide are 585, 7.81, and 0.45 M(-1) s(-2), respectively, and are 3-5 times larger than the rate constants for the corresponding naphthalene 1,2-, quinoline 7,8-, and quinoline 5,6-oxides. Rate constants for uncatalyzed ring opening of anthracene 1,2- and acridine 3,4-oxides (117 x 10(-5) s(-1) and 2.4 X 10(-5) s(-1), respectively) are about two to three times larger than the corresponding rate constants for naphthalene 1,2- and quinoline 7,8-oxides, whereas the rate of nucleophilic ring opening by hydroxide ion to give the trans-dihydrodiols is accelerated by less than a factor of 2 for the acridine oxides as compared with their quinoline analogs. The pH-rate profiles for solvolysis of the acridine oxides, like those of the quinoline oxides, exhibit a pH-independent region at pH values below the pK(a) of the ring nitrogen that is attributed to formation of an unreactive N-protonated species.

AB Many small RNAs contribute essential activities to eukaryotic cells. In mammalian genomes dispersed repetitive sequences which exhibit homology to small RNAs often exist as pseudogenes which can complicate identification, localization, and analysis of the authentic gene. We mapped a productive human 7SK small nuclear RNA gene to human chromosome 6 by analyzing Northern blots derived from a panel of somatic cell hybrids that contain single human chromosomes. In order to avoid crossreactivity of the probe with rodent 7SK RNA, which is 98% identical to human 7SK, a method termed homolog exclusion probing was developed. This method uses an excess of non-labelled rodent-specific oligodeoxynucleotide to block the rodent 7SK RNA from hybridizing with the human-specific oligodeoxynucleotide probe. The effectiveness of this method to enhance the human 7SK RNA signal is demonstrated. The potential to map and subsequently isolate other small RNA genes by this approach and the use of homolog exclusion probing to discriminate among family members of highly related RNAs and DNAs in a single species is discussed.

AB G(oalpha) a guanine nucleotide-binding (G) protein abundant in brain and other neural tissues, has been implicated in ion channel regulation. Concerted efforts in several laboratories have revealed multiple G(oalpha), mRNAs and protein isoforms in different contexts. G(oalpha) is a single copy gene in mammalian species, although the structure, number and tissue localization of G(oalpha) mRNAs reported by investigators are inconsistent. To define the cell-specific expression of alternatively spliced variants of G(oalpha) mRNA, we employed several strategies, including Northern hybridizations with sequence-specific oligonucleotides, selective digestions of G(oalpha) mRNA using RNase H, and adaptations of the polymerase chain reaction. Four distinct alternatively spliced variants were identified, a 5.7-kb G(oalpha)2 mRNA and three G(oalpha)1 mRNAs with different 3' UTRs. The UTRs of the three G(oalpha1s) are composed of different combinations of what have been referred to as UTR-A and UTR-B. The sequences of the spliced segments are well conserved among mammalian species, suggesting a functional role for these alternatively spliced 3' UTRs in post-transcriptional and/or tissue-specific regulation of G(oalpha) expression. The position of the intron - exon splice boundary at nucleotide 31 following T of the TGA stop codon is conserved in the G(ialpha)2 and Gi(ialpha)3 genes, consistent with the notion that similar alternative splicing of 3' UTRs occurs in products of these related genes.

AB To elucidate the role of physical activity in the pathogenesis of acute ischemic syndromes in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), we hypothesized that platelet activation occurs when coronary blood flew velocity and shear stress increase across an atherosclerotic vascular bed. We measured platelet aggregation by using angiologic catheterization to obtain simultaneous samples of whole blood from the coronary sinus and the aorta while at rest, 2 minutes after the onset of rapid atrial pacing and 10 minutes after termination of pacing. Of 82 consecutive patients included in our study, 36 had stenosis of the left coronary artery, 12 had stenosis of the right coronary artery only, and 34 had no evidence of CAD. Samples taken at rest revealed no arteriovenous difference in platelet aggregation between patients with CAD and those without CAD. In patients with significant stenosis (greater than or equal to 80%) of the left coronary artery, atrial pacing caused platelet aggregation to increase in samples from the coronary sinus (64 +/- 9% increase; p <0.01) but not in blood from the aorta (2 +/- 8% decrease; difference not significant). This increase was transient, with aggregation returning almost to resting values 10 minutes after pacing ended. Atrial pacing elicited no change in platelet aggregation in samples from either the coronary sinus or aorta of patients with nonsignificant stenosis (<50%) of the left coronary artery, patients with significant stenosis of the right coronary artery only, and patients free of CAD. Thus, under resting conditions, no evidence of platelet activation across the coronary bed was seen regardless of CAD status. However, significant stenosis was associated with heightened platelet activation and aggregation when coronary blood flow was increased with atrial pacing.

AB Background. Both didanosine and zalcitabine are commonly used to treat patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection who cannot tolerate zidovudine treatment or who have had disease progression despite it. The relative efficacy and safety of these second-line therapies are not well defined. Methods. In this multicenter, open-label trial we randomly assigned 467 patients who previously received zidovudine and had 300 or fewer CD4 cells per cubic millimeter or a diagnosis of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) to treatment with either didanosine (500 mg per day) or zalcitabine (2.25 mg per day). Results. After a median follow-up of 16 months, disease progression or death occurred in 157 of 230 patients assigned to didanosine and 152 of 237 patients assigned to zalcitabine, for a relative risk of 0.93 for the zalcitabine group as compared with the didanosine group (P = 0.56), which decreased to 0.84 (P = 0.15) after adjustment for the CD4 count, Karnofsky score, and presence of AIDS at base line. There were 100 deaths in the didanosine group and 88 in the zalcitabine group, for a relative risk of 0.78 (P = 0.09) and an adjusted relative risk of 0.63 (P = 0.003).
A majority of patients in each group (66 percent) had at least one adverse event during treatment (153 patients taking didanosine and 157 taking zalcitabine). Peripheral neuropathy and stomatitis occurred more often with zalcitabine and diarrhea and abdominal pain more frequently with didanosine. Conclusions. For patients with HIV infection who have not responded to treatment with zidovudine, zalcitabine is at least as efficacious as didanosine in delaying disease progression and death.

AB The kinetics of CO binding to cytochromes P450 in rat liver microsomes were examined using the flash photolysis technique. Modulation of the kinetics by P450 form-specific effecters such as anti-P450 monoclonal antibodies and substrates was used to elucidate the kinetic behavior of individual P450s within the endoplasmic reticulum. The problem of attributing a kinetic parameter to a single P450 in the presence of multiple microsomal P450s was overcome with a difference method that employs the difference of the kinetic profiles obtained in the presence and absence of a P450 effector. Applying this approach to study the conformation/dynamics of P450 2B1 in microsomes from phenobarbital-treated rats revealed that the substrate benzphetamine enhances while testosterone inhibits the rate of CO binding to this P450. Similar experiments with P450 1A1 in microsomes from 3-methylcholanthrene-treated rats showed that the substrate benzo[alpha]pyrene accelerates CO binding. These results show that the access channel between solvent and heme in the P450 interior can be altered in a substrate- and P450-dependent manner to either hinder or facilitate CO diffusion to the heme iron. These results also demonstrate that analytical difference methods may be employed to characterize the conformation of individual P450s in their native membrane environment in the endoplasmic reticulum.

AB The phagocyte superoxide-generating NADPH oxidase, a multicomponent, membrane-bound electron transport chain, consists of cytochrome b(558), p47-phox, p67-phox, and p21rac2 or p21rac2. The mechanisms of oxidase assembly are poorly understood. In previous studies using a cell-free NADPH oxidase system, we showed that preincubation of neutrophil membrane with neutrophil cytosol containing p47-phox, but not p67-phox, led to formation of a long-lived NADPH oxidase intermediate. This suggested that p47-phox interacted with cytochrome b(558) in the early stages of oxidase assembly while p67-phox participated in a later stage. Peptides containing the sequence RGVHFIF (corresponding to amino acids 559-565 of the 91-kDa subunit of cytochrome b(558)) inhibit NADPH oxidase activity by blocking the early interaction between p47-phox and cytochrome b(558) In the present study, we examined whether p21rac facilitated the interaction between p47-phox and cytochrome b(558) We preincubated pure recombinant p47-phox with neutrophil membrane containing cytochrome b(558) in the cell-free system. Superoxide-generating activity was subsequently reconstituted by adding pure rp67-phox and partially purified p21rac. RGVHFIF inhibited superoxide production if added to the cell-free system during preincubation of rp47-phox with membrane. RGVHFIF was markedly less inhibitory if added to the cell-free system after membrane was preincubated with pure rp47-phox. In contrast to p47-phox, preincubation of membrane with either p21rac or rp67-phox conferred no protection from inhibition of superoxide-generating activity by RGVHFIF added after preincubation. We conclude that p21rac does not facilitate interaction of p47-phox with cytochrome b(558) and that p47-phox is the first cytosol protein to associate with cytochrome b(558) during oxidase assembly.

AB A cDNA clone encoding a cytochrome P-450 (P-450) isozyme was isolated from a mouse liver cDNA library. This P-450, designated CYP2C29, the first member of the mouse CYP2C subfamily to be reported, contained the complete coding region of 490 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequence of CYP2C29 exhibited 83% identity with that of the rat CYP2C7 and had an N-terminal sequence identical to that of P-450 MUT-2, a microsomal aldehyde oxygenase. Two peptides, derived from BrCN cleavage of P-450 MUT-2, were also identical to the cDNA deduced protein of CYP2C29. These results indicate that CYP2C29 cDNA encodes P-450 MUT-2.

AB SET, the translocation breakpoint-encoded protein in acute undifferentiated leukemia (AUL), is identified as a 39-kDa phosphoprotein found predominantly in the cell nuclei [1994, J. Biol. Chem. 269, 2258-2262]. SET is fused to a putative oncoprotein, CAN, in AUL and is thought to regulate the transformation potential of SET-CAN by its nuclear localization and phosphorylation. We investigated in detail the in vivo phosphorylation of SET. Phosphorylation of SET occurred in all human cell lines examined in vivo, primarily on serine residues. Endoproteinase Glu-C digestion of phosphorylated SET yielded two phosphopeptides. By radiosequencing, we identified the in vivo phosphorylation sites of SET as Ser(9) and Se-24. The surrounding sequences of Se-9 and Ser(24) contained an apparent consensus site sequence for protein kinase C.

AB p53 is a tumor suppressor gene-found to be mutated in a wide variety of tumors. The encoded p53 protein has properties of a classical transcription factor, but the promoter targets for its regulation are largely unknown. We have investigated the ability of p53 to regulate activity of the human retinoblastoma susceptibility gene (Rb) promoter using a cotransfection assay in CCL-64 and Saos-2 cells, p53 was able to stimulate transcription from the Rb promoter at low input doses of p53 expression plasmid, whereas transcription was repressed at high input doses. The stimulatory effect of p53 on Rb promoter activity mapped to a region between 4 and 92 base pairs upstream from the start site of translation, whereas the region controlling repression by p53 mapped to the basal transcriptional control region of the promoter between -207 and -185. Moreover, an oligonucleotide containing Rb promoter sequences between -63 and -88 was sufficient to confer stimulation by p53 when inserted upstream from a minimal heterologous promoter. Gel mobility shift analysis was used to demonstrate that p53 can bind to a sequence within the -63 to -88 oligonucleotide with homology to a p53 binding site. The presence of a functional p53 binding site in the human retinoblastoma tumor suppressor gene promoter suggests that p53 can regulate Rb promoter activity.

AB The myosin light chain kinase inhibitor, wortmannin (WT), caused dose dependent inhibition of the sustained increases but not the initial spikes of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins-1,4,5-P-3) and cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+](i)) in angiotensin II (AII)-stimulated adrenal glomerulosa cells. In contrast, WT did not affect the [Ca2+](i) increases evoked by K+-induced depolarization or by depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores with ionomycin or thapsigargin, suggesting that its inhibitory effects on Ins-1,4,5-P-3 and [Ca2+](i) responses are closely related. The inhibitory effect of WT on the lns-1,4,5-P-3 response was not secondary to its reduction of Ca2+ entry, since ionomycin induced elevation of [Ca2+](i) did not restore Ins-1,4,5-P-3 formation. Also, WT inhibited agonist- and GTP gamma S-stimulated Ins 1,4,5-P-3 formation in permeabilized cells maintained at fixed Ca2+ concentrations. Thus, inhibition of Ca2+ influx by WT is a consequence of reduced Ins-1,4,5-P-3 formation and could reflect the resultant refilling of the agonist-sensitive Ca2+ pool. Indeed, AII-depleted Ca2+ pools were found to refill by a thapsigargin-sensitive mechanism in WT-treated cells. Other structurally unrelated inhibitors of myosin light chain kinase (MS-347a, KT5926, and ML-9) also inhibited AII-induced inositol phosphate formation, albeit with lower potencies than WT. MS-347a, like WT, inhibited only the second phase of the inositol phosphate and [Ca2+](i) responses to AII. These findings demonstrate that WT is a potent inhibitor of the Ins-1,4,5-P-3-Ca2+ signaling pathway and acts primarily on a mechanism that promotes Ins-1,4,5-P-3 formation and is sensitive to inhibitors of myosin light chain kinase activity.

AB The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HlV-1) Nef is a myristylated 27-kDa, cytoplasmic protein. It is attributed to have suppressive effects on LTR-based expression and T cell activation. Additionally, SIV nef has been shown to possess an essential in vivo function in the development of immunodeficiency. To define the bio chemical activity of HIV-1 Nef in a signal transduction pathway, we have transduced murine NIH-3T3 cells with a retroviral nef expression system, In nef-expressing cells, but not in controls, the proliferative response to bombesin and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) was eliminated. Analysis of an early signal pathway metabolite, inositol l,4,5-trisphosphate following bombesin and PDGF treatment to quiscent cells, revealed that both control and nef-transformed cells displayed similar kinetics of signal formation. Normally, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate mediates increase in the cytosolic free Ca2+ ([Ca2+](i)). Upon stimulation with bombesin or PDGF, control cells displayed a 2-4-fold increase of [Ca2+](i) over the basal level, while the [Ca2+](i) response in nef-expressing NIH-3T3 cells was lacking or highly diminished. However, the release of [Ca2+](i) from the intracellular store of the nef-expressing cells by an endomembrane Ca2+ ATPase inhibitor, thapsigargin, revealed that these cells contained normal Ca2+ stores. These results suggest a specific, definable biochemical activity for the HIV-1 Nef protein in the context of a well characterized cellular activation pathway. Our results thus define, for the first time, a unique function of Nef that is not limited to an alteration of T cell function or of expression of a T cell surface antigen.

AB The gene encoding the neuropeptide galanin is upregulated by second messenger signal transduction pathways in bovine chromaffin cells. To identify its transcriptional regulatory elements, 5'-flanking sequences of the galanin gene were transiently transfected into primary cultures of bovine chromaffin cells within reporter gene constructs. Multiple regions of the galanin 5' flank seem to be necessary for basal activity. The most promoter-proximal of these regions contains a sequence (TGACG) -66 to -62 nucleotides upstream from the transcriptional start site which mediates stimulation by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol- 13 acetate (TPA), as demonstrated by site-directed mutagenesis and cis-activation experiments. This cis-regulatory element mediates preferential TPA stimulation of transcription from the galanin promoter in chromaffin cells compared with bovine endothelial or HeLa cells, DNA-protein binding assays indicate that an oligonucleotide that includes the galanin TPA-responsive element (GTRE) binds specifically to proteins from nuclear extracts of chromaffin cells. TPA treatment persistently increases this binding activity in chromaffin but not in endothelial cells. Mutation of the galanin promoter within the -66 to -62 region renders it unresponsive to transcriptional stimulation by TPA, and a correspondingly mutated oligonucleotide fails to bind chromaffin cell nuclear proteins in a gel-shift assay. Chromaffin cell nuclear extracts also contain proteins that bind consensus TPA-responsive (TRE) and cyclic AMP-responsive (CRE) elements. GTRE, TRE, and CRE oligonucleotides all compete more efficiently for protein binding to their labeled congeners than for protein binding to either of the other labeled oligonucleotides, suggesting that the GTRE, TRE, and CRE oligo nucleotides each bind unique as well as common proteins, likely to be members of the Jun/Fos and cAMP-responsive element-binding protein/activating transcription factors (CREB/ATF) families of transcription factors, in chromaffin cells.

AB The bovine brain uncoating ATPase, a constitutive 70-kDa heat shock protein, uncoats clathrin coated vesicles in an ATP dependent reaction. The uncoating ATPase-clathrin complex formed from the uncoating reaction was compared to the complex formed by directly binding free clathrin to uncoating ATPase. The amount of the latter complex shows a simple hyperbolic dependence on either free clathrin or free uncoating ATPase concentration, whichever is in excess, with a binding stoichiometry of one uncoating ATPase per clathrin heavy chain. ATP markedly increases the rates of formation and dissociation of this complex while ADP profoundly inhibits these rates. At low uncoating ATPase concentrations, much more complex is formed by uncoating than by directly binding clathrin to enzyme. However, during column chromatography or dilution for electron microscopy, both types of complex dissociate in ATP but not ADP, and electron microscopy of both types of complex diluted into ADP shows binding only to the vertex of the clathrin triskelion. We conclude that the uncoating ATPase forms only one type of complex with clathrin and has only one site for nucleotide; ADP at this site prevents either formation or dissociation of complex, whereas ATP at this site allows both processes to occur rapidly.

AB Adenosine analogues modified at the 5'-position as uronamides and/or as N-6-benzyl derivatives were synthesized. These derivatives were examined for affinity in radioligand binding assays at the newly discovered rat brain A(3) adenosine receptor and at rat brain A(1) and Az, receptors. 5'Uronamide substituents favored AS selectivity in the order N-methyl > N-ethyl approximate to unsubstituted carboxamide > N-cyclopropyl. 5'-(N-Methylcarboxamido)-N-6-benzyladenosine was 37-56-fold more selective for Ag receptors. Potency at A(3) receptors was enhanced upon substitution of the benzyl substituent with nitro and other groups. 5'-N-Methyluronamides and N-6-(3-substituted-benzyl) adenosines are optimal for potency and selectivity at A(3) receptors. A series of 3-(halobenzyl)5'-N-ethyluronamide derivatives showed the order of potency at A(1) and A(2)a receptors of I similar to Br > Cl > F. At A(3) receptors the 3-F derivative was weaker than the other halo derivatives. 5'-N-Methyl-N-6- (3-iodobenzyl) adenosine displayed a K-i value of 1.1 nM at A(3) receptors and selectivity versus A(1) and A(2a), receptors of 50-fold. A series of methoxybenzyl derivatives showed that a C-methoxy group best favored A(3) selectivity. A 4-sulfobenzyl derivative was a specific ligand at A(3) receptors of moderate potency. An aryl amino derivative was prepared as a probe for radioiodination and receptor cross-linking.

ID ESTABLISHMENT; INVITRO
AB The principal biotransformation product of taxol was found to be identical for human hepatic microsomes, human liver slices, and patient bile samples. We have isolated this metabolite from the bile of a patient given taxol, and we report its structure and its cytotoxicity relative to taxol. The NMR and SIMS data presented here indicate that, in humans, taxol is regiospecifically hydroxylated at the 6-position on the taxane ring and that this hydroxyl is stereospecifically placed trans to the hydroxyl at position 7, yielding 6(alpha-hydroxytaxol. This metabolite is apparently not formed in rats. Tests of the growth inhibition potential of 6 alpha-hydroxytaxol versus taxol in two human tumor cell lines showed that the metabolite was approximately 30-fold less cytotoxic than taxol. Thus the cytochrome P-450-mediated biotransformation of taxol to 6 alpha-hydroxytaxol can be classified as a detoxification reaction.

AB The excitability of the human motor cortex during the development of implicit and declarative knowledge of a motor task was examined. During a serial reaction time test, subjects developed implicit knowledge of the test sequence, which was reflected by diminishing response times. Motor cortical mapping with transcranial magnetic stimulation revealed that the cortical output maps to the muscles involved in the task became progressively larger until explicit knowledge was achieved, after which they returned to their baseline topography. These results illustrate the rapid functional plasticity of cortical outputs associated with learning and with the transfer of knowledge from an implicit to explicit state.

AB When a crude extract of rat pineal glands (the 1000 x g supernatant of a homogenate) was incubated with arachidonic acid, 12-hydroxy-5,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoic acid was found as a major product. The 12-lipoxygenase of rat pineal gland also reacted with linoleic and cr-linolenic acids at 35% and 101% the rate of arachidonate 12-oxygenation, respectively. Upon Western blot analysis using polyclonal antibody against: porcine leukocyte 12-lipoxygenase, the cytosol fraction of rat pineal gland showed a positive band with a molecular weight of approx. 74 kDa. A full-length cDNA for this enzyme was cloned from a cDNA library of rat pineal gland and the identity of the 12-lipoxygenase cDNA was confirmed by its expression in E. coli. The amino acid sequence of the enzyme was deduced from the nucleotide sequence of the cDNA, encoding 663 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 75 305. The enzyme showed 72% identity of amino acid sequence with porcine leukocyte 12-lipoxygenase and 73% with bovine tracheal 12-lipoxygenase, but only 59% with human platelet 12-lipoxygenase. Taken together, the high reactivity with C-18 fatty acids, the immunoreactivity and the amino acid homology data indicate that the rat pineal 12-lipoxygenase is more closely related to leukocyte 12-lipoxygenase than to platelet 12-lipoxygenase. Upon RNA blot analysis, by far the highest content of 12-lipoxygenase mRNA was observed in the pineal gland and negligible amounts of mRNA were detected in other parts of the brain. The predominant presence of 12-lipoxygenase mRNA in pineal gland was confirmed by in situ hybridization of rat brain. Significant amounts of 12-lipoxygenase mRNA were also detected in rat spleen, aorta, lung and leukocytes.

AB The adenosine (ADO) receptor in NIH 3T3 fibroblasts was characterized using a series of adenosine agonists and selected xanthine and non-xanthine antagonists. The ADO receptor elicited accumulations of cyclic AMP in intact NIH 3T3 fibroblasts and caused activation of adenylate cyclase in membrane preparations. The receptor had characteristics of the A(2b) subtype of adenosine receptor. ADO analogs had relatively high EC(50) values at the receptor and were antagonized competitively by xanthines. The rank order of potency for adenosine analogs in NIH 3T3 fibroblasts for cyclic AMP accumulation was: NECA > 2-ClADO > R-PIA much greater than CV1808, CGS 21680. The EC(50) for 2-ClADO was 4.3 mu M in intact cells and 15 mu M in membrane preparations. All ADO analogs were more potent at the A(2a) receptor of pheochromocytoma PC12 membranes than at the A(2b) receptor of fibroblast NIH 3T3 membranes. Structure-activity relationships suggested that the regions of interaction with 5'- and N-6-substituents of ADO were similar for both the PC12 A(2a) and NIH 3T3 A(2b) receptor. However, ADO analogs with large substituents in the 2'-position, such as 2-cyclohexylethoxyADO and CGS 21680, were highly selective for the A(2a) receptor. All ADO analogs tested were stimulatory to adenylate cyclase at the NIH 3T3 A(2b) receptor, including 5'-methylthioADO, which was a weak partial agonist. A series of xanthine antagonists were not selective for the NIH 3T3 A(2b) versus the PC12 A(2a) receptor. In all cases, xanthines were more potent as antagonists in the intact NIH 3T3 cells than in NIH 3T3 membranes. In a series of non-xanthine antagonists, most compounds were equipotent or slightly more potent at the A(2a) receptor except for alloxazine, which was approximately 9-fold selective for the A(2b) receptor.

AB Various fluorescent substrates have been used as specific indicators of induction or activity of different cytochrome P450 isozymes in both fish and mammalian species. In an attempt to identify additional definitive fluorescent substrates for use in fish, we examined a series of 7-alkoxyphenoxazones, 7-alkoxycoumarins and 7-alkoxyquinolines as substrates in O-dealkylation assays with hepatic microsomes from rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Microsomes were prepared after 48 hr of treatment with beta-naphthoflavone (beta-NF), pregnenolone-16 alpha-carbonitrile (PCN), phenobarbital (PB), isosafrole (ISF), or dexamethasone (DEX). Total P450 spectra were obtained, and spectral binding studies were performed. Microsomal O-dealkylation rates were greater after ISF treatment than after beta-NF treatment for 7-methoxy-, 7-ethoxy-, 7-propoxy- and 7-benzyloxyphenoxazones but not for 7-butoxyphenoxazone. DEX treatment resulted in a significant elevation of pentoxyphenoxazone metabolism (about a 144-fold increase) compared with microsomes induced by beta-NF (11-fold) and ISF (37-fold). The rates of dealkylation of the alkoxyphenoxazones by ISF-treated microsomes occurred in the following order: methoxy > ethoxy > propoxy > benzxyloxy > butoxy > pentoxy. When beta-NF-treated microsomes were used, the 7-alkoxyphenoxazones were metabolized as follows: methoxy > ethoxy > propoxy > butoxy > benzyloxy approximate to pentoxy, while the order of metabolism of the 7-alkoxycoumarins was: ethoxy much greater than butoxy > propoxy approximate to methoxy > benzyloxy > pentoxy. None of the other treatments significantly increased the rate of metabolism of any of the alkoxycoumarins. Treatment with beta-NF did not significantly elevate the rate of metabolism of any of the alkoxyquinolines. DEX treatment produced significant elevations in the rate of metabolism of benzyloxy-, ethoxy-, and butoxy- approximate to pentoxy- approximate to propoxyquinoline, in that order. ISF treatment significantly elevated the rate of metabolism of benzyloxy-, methoxy- and butoxyquinoline, in that order. These results suggest that some of these new fluorescent substrates can be used to characterize induction of rainbow trout hepatic microsomal monooxygenase activity by ISF and DEX, in addition to the commonly used ethoxyphenoxazone and ethoxycoumarin for the characterization of induction by beta-NF or other 3-methylcholanthrene-type P450 inducers. Distinction between ISF-type and beta-NF-type inducers in rainbow trout hepatic microsomes may best be made using 7-methoxycoumarin as a substrate. Distinction between ISF-type and DEX-type inducers and between beta-NF-type and DEX-type inducers may best be made using 7-methoxyphenoxazone as a substrate. With beta-NF induction 7-methoxycoumarin, with ISF induction 7-methoxy- phenoxazone, and with DEX induction 7-ethoxyquinoline were metabolized to the greatest extent compared with controls and all other substrates tested.

AB Reduction of ReCl5 in tetrahydrofuran under Ar with 4 equiv of Na in the presence of bidentate tertiary phosphines (L2) yields complexes of the form ReCl(eta2-H-2)(L2)2, L2 = PPh2CH2CH2PPh2 (1), and L2 = PPh2CHCHPPh2 (2). A similar reduction of ReCl5 in the presence of the monodentate ligand PMe2Ph affords mixtures of ReH3(PMe2Ph)4 and the cation [ReH4(PMe2Ph)4]+. The metal-bonded H atoms in complexes 1 and 2 display T1 (min) times of 43 (5) and 29(4) ms, respectively, at 200 MHz. This suggests a long H-H interaction. The single-crystal X-ray structures of complexes 1.THF and [ReO2(PPh2CHCHPPh2)2][ReO4] (3) are reported. Crystal data: compound 1.THF, monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c, a = 11.472(4) angstrom, b = 13.468(2) angstrom, c = 17.339(5) angstrom, beta = 96.02(1)-degrees, V = 2664.1(4) angstrom3, Z - 2, R - 0.041 (R(w) = 0.058) for 288 parameters and 2323 unique data having F(o) > 3sigma(F(o)2); compound 3, triclinic, space group, P1BAR, a = 9.946(1) angstrom, b = 11.744(3) angstrom, c = 12.506(2) angstrom, alpha = 70.59(2)-degrees, beta = 73.46(1)-degrees, gamma = 65.72(1)-degrees, V - 1237.0(3) angstrom3, Z = 1, R = 0.038 (R(w) = 0.055) for 310 parameters and 2582 unique data having F(o) > 3sigma(F(o)2). The geometries of 2 and the cation in 3 are those of distorted octahedra with the Re atoms situated on inversion points. In 1, there is 50% disorder between the trans Cl- and the eta2-H-2 (not located) ligands. Important distances for 1: Re-Cl at 2.574(6) angstrom and, Re-P(1) and Re-P(2) at 2.388(5) and 2.399(3) angstrom, respectively, with a P(1)-Re-P(2) angle of 80.3(1)-degrees. Core distances for 3: Re-O(101) at 1.788(6) angstrom and Re-P(1) and Re-P(2) at 2.476(2) and 2.473(2) angstrom, respectively, with a P(1)-Re-P(2) angle at 81.18(8)-degrees. The tetrahedral anion in 3, [ReO4]-, is located near an inversion point and was refined at 50% occupancy. Here Re-O bond distances range from 1.60(7) to 1.77(2) angstrom.

LA English
DT Article
DE BALLOON CYTOLOGY; ESOPHAGEAL DYSPLASIA; ESOPHAGEAL NEOPLASMS
AB This paper reports a 15-year follow-up study of 12,693 persons in Linxian, China, who were originally screened by esophageal balloon cytology in 1974. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the ability of esophageal balloon cytology to identify individuals at increased risk for developing esophageal cancer. Age, sex and cytologic,aic diagnoses were obtained from the original 1974 records, and information on vital status, cancer experience and potential confounding risk factors was collected from interviews and medical abstracts in 1989. A total of 1,162 incident cases of esophageal cancer and 993 deaths due to esophageal cancer were identified and used in this analysis. The follow-up study showed that the risk of esophageal cancer incidence and mortality increased in parallel with the presumed severity of the 1974 Chinese cytologic diagnoses. After adjusting for potential confounding factors, the relative risks (and 95% confidence intervals) for esophageal cancer incidence, by cytologic diagnosis, were: normal, 1.00; esophagitis, 1.52 (1.07-2.14); hyperplasia, 1.17 (1.02-1.33); dysplasia 1, 1.53 (1.20-2.14); dysplasia 2, 1.89 (1.47-2.41); and suspicious for cancer, 5.77 (3.79-8.80). These results suggest that esophageal balloon cytology, as performed and interpreted in Linxian in 1974, successfully identified individuals at increased risk for esophageal cancer.

AB Histories of obstetric complications (OCs) during pregnancy, labor-delivery and the neonatal period were investigated by detailed maternal report for 23 monozygotic (MZ) twin pairs discordant for schizophrenia, 10 MZ twin pairs concordant for schizophrenia and 7 normal MZ control pairs. Statistically significant differences in OC rates were found across these 3 groups, OCs being most frequent in discordant pairs and least frequent in normal control pairs. Labor complications were significantly more frequent in discordant than concordant pairs. OC rates were equivalent in sick and well discordant twins. The results provide evidence for the role of OCs in the development of schizophrenia, complications at the time of birth being especially associated with the development of schizophrenia in discordant twins.

TI WHY HAS IT PROVED SO DIFFICULT TO MATCH DRUG-ABUSE PATIENTS TO
APPROPRIATE TREATMENT
SO ADDICTION
LA English
DT Article
AB Why has it proved so difficult to match drug abuse patients to appropriate treatment? In seeking answers to this dilemma, attention is directed to the conceptual, semantic, substantive, methodological, political and cultural issues which need to be resolved In particular, the lack of knowledge about the treatment domain as well as the corresponding dearth of instruments to measure program characteristics and the delivery of treatment services is noted Although the importance of demographic and cultural determinants of both patient and treatment characteristics seems evident, numerous conceptual issues persist. Is matching patients to treatment and rehabilitation a one-time event or a process? Is matching a simplistic concept? It is suggested that the principal questions to be resolved about matching drug abuse patients to treatment and rehabilitation are conceptual, or theoretical.

TI CONSUMPTION INDICATORS OF ALCOHOL DEPENDENCE
SO ADDICTION

DT Article
AB This Data Note evaluates various dichotomous measures of alcohol consumption as screeners for past-year alcohol dependence. The analysis is based on data from 22 102 current drinkers interviewed in the 1988 US National Health Interview Survey. The consumption indicators include measures of average daily intake, frequency of heavy drinking, usual quantity and frequency of drinking and various combinations of these measures. The measures based on frequency of heavy drinking are the most strongly correlated with dependence, but none of the consumption indicators have the sensitivity or specificity of screeners based on alcohol-related problems. Most of the consumption items considered in this analysis screen for dependence more successfully among men than among women.

ID 1,25-DIHYDROXYVITAMIN-D CONCENTRATIONS; ISOTOPIC TRACERS; ABSORPTION;
METABOLISM; PREGNANCY; INFANTS; ASSAY
AB Absorption of calcium and its mobilization from bone during lactation are important for delivery of calcium to breast-feeding infants; whether calcium intake offsets bone resorption is not known. We hypothesized that calcium absorption is increased in lactation and greater in women on low calcium diets, resulting in similar rates of bone resorption and accretion. Calcium absorption and kinetic indexes were calculated by using two stable isotopic tracers in 8 women; 6 were studied both during lactation and nonlactation. Women consumed low calcium diets, with half receiving supplemental calcium. Intestinal absorption was related to serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D and did not increase during lactation. Despite decreased urinary calcium excretion during lactation, especially in women with low calcium intake, net balance tended to be lower during lactation. Mean residence time decreased and bone resorption exceeded accretion in almost all lactating women. Calcium need for milk production appears to be met by decreased urinary excretion and increased bone resorption, and not by increased intestinal absorption.

AB Glutathione, a tripeptide found in a variety of foods, may function as an anticarcinogen by acting as an antioxidant and by binding with cellular mutagens. The association between dietary glutathione intake and risk of oral and pharyngeal cancer was investigated using data from 1,830 white participants (855 cases and 975 controls) in a population-based case-control study conducted in New Jersey; metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia; Los Angeles County, California; and Santa Clara and San Mateo counties, south of San Francisco-Oakland, California, during 1984-1985. The estimated relative risk of cancer among people with the highest quartile of glutathione intake from all sources was 0.5 (95% confidence interval 0.3-0.7). When analyzed by dietary source, however, glutathione intakes derived from all vegetables and from meat were not related to risk of cancer. Only glutathione derived from fruit and from vegetables commonly consumed raw was associated with reduced oral cancer risk. Relative to the lowest level of combined intake of fruit and of fruit-derived glutathione, risk of cancer decreased slightly with increasing intake of fruit glutathione. This analysis was limited, however, by the small numbers of subjects with extreme combinations of intakes. Further studies are needed to distinguish the potential effect of glutathione from that of fruit and raw vegetables per se or from the influence of other constituents in these foods.

DE INFANT MORTALITY; RISK FACTORS; TWINS
ID INFANT-MORTALITY; UNITED-STATES
AB Linked Birth/infant Death Files available from the National Center for Health Statistics identify an infant as a twin, but do not identify twin pairs. An algorithm based on maternal, paternal, and infant characteristics has been used to identify twin pairs, but the validity of this algorithm has never been tested. The Missouri linked birth/infant death file from 1980 to 1990 identifies twin pairs by a sequence number. The authors tested the rate and accuracy with which the algorithm identified true pairs in the Missouri file and whether estimates of risk and possible risk factors calculated from pairs of twins identified by the algorithm agreed with these characteristics as calculated from known twin pairs. The algorithm identified 96% (8,273 of 8,620) of true pairs and one false pair. Despite incomplete pair identification, and even identification of a false pair, estimates from the subset identified by the algorithm generally agreed well with characteristics measured from all twin pairs. Nonetheless, incorporation of a multiple birth sequence number into Linked Birth/infant Death Files would enhance their utility.

AB We examined the relationship between cutaneous malignant melanoma/dysplastic nevi (CMM/DN) and chromosome 9p in 13 pedigrees with two or more living cases of invasive melanoma. We used two highly informative (CA)(n) repeats, D9S126 and IFNA, previously implicated in familial malignant melanoma (MLM), to conduct linkage analysis. Three analyses were performed: (1) CMM alone-all individuals without either confirmed melanoma or borderline lesions were considered unaffected (model A); (2) CMM/DN with both variable age at onset and sporadics (model B); and (3) CMM affecteds only-all individuals either without confirmed melanoma or with borderline lesions were designated ''unknown'' (model C). There was significant evidence for linkage to IFNA in all three models. For CMM alone, the maximum lod score (Z(max)) was 4.36 at theta =.10 for model A and 3.39 at theta =.10 for model C. For CMM/DN (model B), Z(max) = 3.05 at theta =.20. There was no significant evidence for linkage between CMM alone or CMM/DN and chromosome 9p marker D9S126. In addition, there was significant evidence for heterogeneity when a homogeneity test allowing for linkage to chromosome 9p or chromosome 3p or neither region was used. These results suggest that there is an MLM susceptibility locus on chromosome 9p but that familial melanoma is heterogeneous and not all families with CMM/DN are linked to a locus in this region.

TI ROBUST VARIANCE-COMPONENTS APPROACH FOR ASSESSING GENETIC-LINKAGE IN
PEDIGREES
SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF HUMAN GENETICS
LA English
DT Article
ID QUANTITATIVE TRAITS; LINEAR-MODELS; MARKER LOCUS; IDENTITY
AB To assess evidence for genetic linkage from pedigrees, I developed a limited variance-components approach. In this method, variability among trait observations from individuals within pedigrees is expressed in terms of fixed effects from covariates and effects due to an unobservable trait-affecting major locus, random polygenic effects, and residual nongenetic variance. The effect attributable to a locus linked to a marker is a function of the additive and dominance components of variance of the locus, the recombination fraction, and the proportion of genes identical by descent at the marker locus for each pair of sibs. For unlinked loci, the polygenic variance component depends only on the relationship between the relative pair. Parameters can be estimated by either maximum-likelihood methods or quasi-likelihood methods. The forms of quasi-likelihood estimators are provided. Hypothesis tests derived from the maximum-likelihood approach are constructed by appeal to asymptotic theory. A simulation study showed that the size of likelihood-ratio tests was appropriate but that the monogenic component of variance was generally underestimated by the likelihood approach.

TI EXERCISE BLOOD-PRESSURE RESPONSE AND 5-YEAR RISK OF ELEVATED
BLOOD-PRESSURE IN A COHORT OF YOUNG-ADULTS - THE CARDIA STUDY
SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF HYPERTENSION
LA English
DT Article
DE EXERCISE TEST; BLOOD PRESSURE; HYPERTENSION; POPULATION STUDIES
AB Systolic blood pressure response to exercise has been shown to predict development of hypertension in men, but this association has not been examined in population-based samples of men, or in women or non-whites. This relationship was explored in 3741 normotensive black and white young adults undergoing treadmill testing in the CARDIA study and examined 5 years later for development of hypertension. Exaggerated response to exercise (systolic pressure greater than or equal to 210 mm Hg in men and greater than or equal to 190 mm Hg in women) was detected in 687 subjects (18%) at baseline, and incident hypertension (blood pressure greater than or equal to 140/90 mm Hg or on medication) was detected in 184 subjects (4.9%) at followup. Persons with exaggerated response to exercise at baseline had 5 mm Hg higher systolic and 1 mm Hg higher diastolic pressures at follow-up (P < .005) and were 1.70 times more likely to have developed hypertension than were persons with normal response (P <.001). After adjustment for age, race, sex, clinic, resting systolic pressure, body mass index, heavy activity score, exercise duration, and preexercise systolic pressure, exaggerated response was associated with a 2.14 mm Hg increase in year 5 systolic pressure (P <.0001). These associations did not differ by race or sex. Although the increment in systolic pressure associated with exaggerated exercise response was small (1 to 3 mm Hg), this small increment sustained over time could lead to a substantially increased incidence of hypertension and hypertension-related target organ damage. Determination of factors associated with exaggerated response may provide further insights into the development of hypertension in young adults.

AB OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of in utero exposure to diethylstilbestrol on the menstrual cycle.
STUDY DESIGN: This was a prospective cohort study of 198 diethylstilbestrol-exposed women and 162 unexposed controls, recruited from women whose mothers participated in a randomized trial of diethylstilbestrol in pregnancy at the Chicago Lying-in Hospital from 1950 to 1952. Women with severe menstrual abnormality were excluded from the study.
RESULTS: Diethylstilbestrol exposure was associated with a statistically significantly decreased duration of menstrual bleeding of approximately one half day and a lower average daily bleeding score (self-reported). We found no evidence for effects of diethylstilbestrol exposure on cycle length or variability of cycle length. Exposure was not related to symptoms of dysmenorrhea.
CONCLUSIONS: The decreased duration and amount of menstrual bleeding among diethylstilbestrol-exposed women could be due to direct effects on the uterus. The lack of an effect on cycle length and variability appears to indicate that endocrine function is not grossly disturbed in those women studied.

TI A CLINICAL-TRIAL OF INDUCTION OF LABOR VERSUS EXPECTANT MANAGEMENT IN

LA English
DT Article
DE POSTTERM PREGNANCY; PROSTAGLANDIN-E2 GEL
ID PROSTAGLANDIN-E2 GEL; PROLONGED PREGNANCY; FETAL SURVEILLANCE; TERM
PREGNANCY
AB OBJECTIVE: Management of the uncomplicated pregnancy prolonged beyond the estimated date of confinement is controversial, particularly when the cervix is unfavorable for induction. The benefit of reducing potential fetal risk with induction of labor must be balanced against the morbidity associated with this procedure. The objective of this study was to compare two strategies for managing postterm pregnancy (i.e., immediate induction and expectant mangement).
STUDY DESIGN: Four hundred forty patients with uncomplicated pregnancies at 41 weeks' gestation were randomized to either immediate induction of labor (n = 265) or expectant management (n = 175). Patients with expectant management underwent nonstress testing and amnioic fluid volume assesment twice per week. Patients in the induction group underwent induction within 24 hours of randomization. To evaluate the efficacy of intracervical prostaglandin E2 gel, patients in the induction group were randomized in a 2:1 scheme to receive either 0.5 mg prostaglandin E2 gel or placebo gel intracervically 12 hours before induction of labor with oxytocin.
RESULTS: The incidence of adverse perinatal outcome (neonatal seizures, intracranial hemorrhage, the need for mechanical ventilation, or nerve injury) was 1.5% in the induction group and 1% in the expectant management group (p > 0.05). There were no fetal deaths in either group. There were no differences in mean birth weight or the frequency of macrosomia (birth weight a 4000 gm) between the two groups (p > 0.05). Regardless of parity, prostaglandin E2 intracervical gel was not more effective than placebo in ripening the cervix. The cesarean delivery rate was not significantly different in the expectant (18%), prostaglandin E2 gel (23%), or placebo gel (18%) groups.
CONCLUSIONS: Adverse perinatal outcome in otherwise uncomplicated pregnancies of greater-than-or-equal-to 41 weeks is very low with either of the management schemes described. Thus from the perspective of perinatal morbidity or mortality either management scheme is acceptable.

ID COLONY-STIMULATING FACTOR; BREAST-CANCER; TUMOR-CELLS; MESSENGER
AB OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the study was to determine whether ovarian cancer patients have activated lymphocytes as indicated by the presence of soluble interleukin-2 receptor-alpha and to compare soluble interleukin-2 receptor-alpha with other markers in ovarian cancer.
STUDY DESIGN: Ascites and serum from patients with advanced active ovarian cancer was tested for the presence of elevated levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptor-alpha and compared with normal controls. Levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptor-alpha were also compared with levels of CA 125 and macrophage colony-stimulating factor in the same patients, to evaluate the correlation between different markers.
RESULTS: Elevated levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptor-alpha were detected in 86 of 86 (100%) ascites samples and 67 of 85 (79%) serum samples from patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer. In contrast, only 12 of 25 (48%) benign ascites samples and one of 88 (1%) serum samples from controls had elevated levels. There was no obvious correlation between levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptor-alpha and levels of CA 125; however, levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptor-alpha did correlate with levels of macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Concurrent measurement of serum-soluble interleukin-2alpha and CA 125 levels detected 100% of patients with epithelial ovarian cancer.
CONCLUSION: The detection of elevated levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptor-alpha in serum and ascites indicates the presence of activated lymphocytes in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer. Ascites and serum levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptor-alpha are elevated in patients with advanced ovarian cancer and warrant assessment as a potential complementary marker to CA 125 for early detection of ovarian cancer and management of patients with advanced ovarian cancer.

AB Multilamellar structures (MLS) were found inside and outside osteoblasts in cultured and uncultured fetal mouse parietal bone fixed at pH 7.3 with glutaraldehyde solution containing tannic acid (TA). Electron-lucent areas (up to 1.5 mu m in diameter) surrounded by thin lamellar structures were found in place of MLS in bone and bone cell cultures fixed at pH 6.0 in the presence of TA. Large lipid droplets were found, in place of electron-lucent areas and MLS, in specimens fixed at pH 7.4 in the absence of TA and dehydrated with a procedure that did not extract neutral lipid. Freeze-fracture studies showed phosphatidylcholine formed MLS at both pH 8.1 and pH 6.0, whereas oleic acid formed MLS at pH 8.1 and lipid droplets at pH 6.0. Thus fatty acids probably formed the pH-dependent MLS found in bone. The data suggest that osteoblasts synthesize and secrete fatty acids, as droplets, into the extracellular space. The close association of MLS with calcifying osteoid in specimens processed with TA suggests that fatty acids are directly involved in bone mineralization.

ID AMINO-ACID-TRANSPORT; HETEROGENEITY; ERYTHROCYTES; GLUCOSE
AB The double-indicator technique with intracarotid bolus injection is useful for the estimation of transfer rates across the human blood-brain barrier. A method using intravenous tracer injection is developed whereby the input is measured at a peripheral artery and the output is measured at the jugular vein. To correct for differences in the brain input of test and reference substances, a five-parameter Dirac impulse response for passage through the cerebrovascular bed is computed from the input and output of the reference substance. This response is then combined with a capillary model of the brain. This is then convoluted with the arterial input curve of the test substance to yield a theoretical test output curve, which is compared with the actual test output curve. On the basis of these two curves and an appropriate mathematical model for the brain, estimates of blood-brain barrier permeability are obtained. In the present study, the techniques are compared in 13 patients in whom alternating intracarotid and intravenous bolus injections were given. For D-glucose, the two techniques yielded similar results. This was also the case for L-phenylalanine, provided that the erythrocyte compartment was taken into account. Data obtained after intravenous injection of leucine and water yielded similar results compared with previous intracarotid data.

AB The purpose of these studies was to determine whether both basal and secretory rat tracheal epithelial (RTE) cells served as multipotent epithelial progenitors and whether both cell types gave rise to a similar ''poorly differentiated'' cell during the early phase of epithelial regeneration in denuded tracheal grafts. Griffonia simplicifolia I (GSI) lectin and flow cytometry were used for cell sorting. More than 98% of GSI-positive cells expressed plasma membrane alpha 1-3 terminal galactose (Gal), and 95% contained keratin 14 (K14), phenotypic markers for basal cells; <1% were secretory or ciliated cells. Less than 2% of the GSI-negative cells expressed Gal or K14, but this fraction contained 16% ciliated cells and 54-79% secretory cells, dependent on whether periodic acid-Schiff staining or binding of an antisecretory cell monoclonal antibody (RTE 12) was used as the criterion. Equal numbers of viable cells from either fraction were inoculated into denuded tracheal grafts, which were studied on days 1-14. At 24 h, greater numbers of GSI-negative than -positive cells were found attached to the graft wall; the keratin staining pattern of the attached cells was similar to that of the parent cell populations, but monoclonal antibody-detectable secretory and ciliated cell epitopes, originally present in the GSI-negative fraction, were lost. 5-Bromo-2'-deoxyuridine uptake was not seen at 24 h, but by 48 h all epithelial cells from both fractions entered the cell cycle. From 48 to 96 h, cells derived from either fraction were ultrastructurally indistinguishable; they were poorly differentiated and highly proliferative, and all expressed Gal and K14. A mature epithelium evolved from the poorly differentiated cells in both sets of grafts, but secretory and ciliated cells appeared earlier in grafts inoculated with GSI-negative cells. The results strongly suggest that in this model of tracheal epithelial regeneration both basal and secretory cells ''dedifferentiated'' into a similar highly proliferative phenotype from which a mucociliary epithelium ''redifferentiated.''

AB Biochemical and pharmacological experiments led to a model describing a thrombin-releasable (vesicular) compartment and two non-thrombin-releasable compartments for 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin) in normal human platelets (J. L. Costa, K. L. Kirk, D. L. Murphy, and H. Stark. Br. J. Pharmacol. 72: 449-459, 1981). With tritiated 5-HT as substrate, the amounts of total and nonreleasable intraplatelet tritiated material were measured. Moreover, in the last set of experiments, the amounts of extraplatelet tritiated material and extraplatelet tritiated 5-HT were also measured. With these data, identification of the kinetic constants for movement between the various compartments was possible. A recent extension of the similarity transformation approach to nonlinear compartmental models was used to carry out the a priori identifiability analysis. Then numerical identification was performed by implementing and achieving: efficient methods from optimal control theory. Under owl experimental conditions, the main results are as follows: 1) the vesicular compartment corresponds to the platelet storage 5-HT compartment, 2) instead of pools I and II proposed previously, only a single nonreleasable thrombin-resistant pool could be detected, and 3) the optimized model computed to suit the first set of experiments fits homologous intraplatelet results obtained under similar experimental conditions in the last set of experiments and also fits one of the two supplementary extraplatelet investigations.

AB Objectives. This research used food frequency data to investigate dietary patterns associated with fat intake.
Methods. Data from the 1987 National Health Interview Survey of 20 143 adults were used to determine correlations between fat (adjusted for kilocalories) and both nutrient and food group intakes. Median food and nutrient intakes were determined within quartiles of percentage of kilocalories from fat.
Results. Intakes of vegetables, fruits, cereals, fish/chicken, low-fat milk, alcoholic beverages, vitamin C, percentage of kilocalories from carbohydrates, carotenoids, folate, dietary fiber, carbohydrates, and vitamin A decreased as percentage of kilocalories from fat increased. Intakes of salty snacks, peanuts, processed and red meats, whole milk and cheese, desserts, eggs, fried potatoes, table fats, cholesterol, vitamin E, sodium, protein, and energy increased with percentage of kilocalories from fat. Results by demographic subgroups showed few differences from those found in the total population.
Conclusions. Fat intake is consistently associated with specific dietary patterns. Such patterns need to be evaluated concurrently in studies of diet and chronic disease.

AB Objectives. The relationship of behavior and activity levels to the interval between outbreak and year of birth and to age of the children is explored in Taiwanese children exposed in utero to heat-degraded polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)-the Yu-cheng children. Additionally, the relationship of the scores to chemical, physical, and cognitive findings is described.
Methods. With Rutter's Child Behavior Scale A and a modified Werry-Weiss-Peters Activity Scale, 118 Yu-cheng children and matched controls were followed biannually from 1985 to 1991.
Results. At each year, the Yu-cheng children scored 7% to 43% worse (mean = 23%) than control children on the Rutter scale. At any fixed age, the Yu-cheng children scored 11% to 63% (mean = 28%) worse. The effect for children born later did not differ from that for those born earlier; neither was there any improvement as the children aged. A similar but weaker picture was seen for the activity score. These behavioral findings were not related to physical or cognitive findings or to serum PCB levels.
Conclusions. Inutero exposure to heat-degraded PCBs appears to cause mildly disordered behavior and increased activity level; the effect persists over time and is similar in children born up to 6 years after the mothers were exposed.

TI THE DRIVERS LICENSE LIST AS A POPULATION-BASED SAMPLING FRAME IN IOWA
SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PUBLIC HEALTH
LA English
DT Note
ID TELEPHONE; DIRECTORIES
AB Driver's license lists are infrequently used for population-based sampling, presumably because of suspicions of poor population coverage. The 1990 Iowa driver's license list was compared with the 1990 census to evaluate coverage by 5-year age group, sex, resident county, and urbanicity. Coverage exceeded 90% among 15- to 74-year-old men and 15- to 64-year-old women, with uniform coverage by county and county urbanicity group in these age ranges. In Iowa, these lists are convenient and cost-effective and appear to be representative for 25- to 64-year-olds. The representativeness of driver lists in regard to other factors and in other geographic regions deserves further evaluation.

AB The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a process of nonhydrostatic pulmonary edema and hypoxemia associated with a variety of etiologies, carries a high morbidity, mortality (10 to 90%), and financial cost. The reported annual incidence in the United States is 150,000 cases, but this figure has been challenged, and it may be different in Europe. Part of the reason for these uncertainties are the heterogeneity of diseases underlying ARDS and the lack of uniform definitions for ARDS. Thus, those who wish to know the true incidence and outcome of this clinical syndrome are stymied. The American-European Consensus Committee on ARDS was formed to focus on these issues and on the pathophysiologic mechanisms of the process. It was felt that international coordination between North America and Europe in clinical studies of ARDS was becoming increasingly important in order to address the recent plethora of potential therapeutic agents for the prevention and treatment of ARDS.

AB Mice, C57B1/6N (B6) and BALB/cAnN (BALB), infected with Schistosoma mansoni were examined 8-26 weeks postinfection (PI) to estimate the fecundity of the worms and the contribution of death of worms and the death of heavily infected mice to the decrease in worm numbers in chronic infections. Portal worms were recovered by perfusion and the lungs were examined for parasites shunted from the portal circulation. Animals that died were more heavily infected than those that survived. Between eight and 12 weeks PI, this loss of worms resulted in a net decrease of approximately 19% of worm Fairs in surviving BALB mice, but of only 4% in B6 mice. Loss of portal worms to the lungs after the eighth week of infection was 9-13% of portal worms in BALB mice and 3-4% in B6 mice. The estimated rates of egg production by S. mansoni decreased slightly with time in both strains of mice. At 12 and 20 weeks PI, tissue eggs per worm pair and eggs passed in the feces per worm pair often decreased as the intensity of infection increased. We do not consider the loss of worms in the murine host relevant to most infections in humans because of the high intensity of infection relative to body size in mice and the high frequency of severe portal obstruction in murine infections.

AB Individual male and female schistosomes approximately three weeks of age were implanted into the portal venous system of C57Bl/6 mice to produce infections with a single pair of Schistosoma mansoni or S. japonicum. Mice were killed between seven and 53 weeks after infection. Worm fecundity was measured by counting eggs accumulating in the tissues and eggs passed in the feces. Schistosoma mansoni worm pairs laid approximately 350 eggs per day with no change in the apparent rate of egg laying between eight and 52 weeks after infection and approximately one-third of the eggs were passed in the feces. Schistosoma japonicum worm pairs laid approximately 2,200 eggs per day initially and this decreased to 1,000 eggs per day by the end of the experiment, with one-third to one-half of the eggs being passed in the feces. Then was marked variability in the fecundity of individual worm pairs, but the number of eggs passed in the feces of individual mice correlated well with the number of eggs in the intestines at all time points in S. mansoni-infected mice and at the seventh and tenth week of S. japonicum infection.

AB To determine the effectiveness of single oral dosages of ivermectin ranging between 20 and 200 mu g/kg and to make detailed observations of both the kinetics of parasite killing and the adverse reactions induced by treatment, the present double-blind study on ivermectin treatment of lymphatic filariasis caused by Wuchereria bancrofti was undertaken with 43 microfilaremic patients in Recife, Brazil. Follow-up at one year indicated equivalent efficacy for the 20-, 100-, and 200-mu g/kg drug dosages in reducing microfilaremia to geometric means of 13-25% of pretreatment levels. Adverse clinical reactions (predominantly fever, headache, weakness, and myalgia) occurred to some degree in almost all patients but generally lasted only 24-48 hr and were easily managed symptomatically. Adverse reactions were significantly milder in those receiving the lowest (20 mu g/kg) ivermectin dose, and they were significantly correlated with individuals' pretreatment microfilaremia levers in all groups. Posttreatment eosinophilia was a regular feature of the response to treatment, with the magnitude and kinetics also proportional to pretreatment microfilarial levels. Transient pulmonary function abnormalities (16 of 42, 38%), liver enzyme elevations (10 of 43, 23%), and hematuria (9 of 42, 22%) developed posttreatment, but air cleared without significant complications. The results indicate that W. bancrofti from Brazil is similar to strains of the parasites studied elsewhere in susceptibility to ivermectin, that the drug's systemic adverse reactions are essentially those resulting from parasite clearance, and that the intensity of these reactions can be significantly reduced by using the low (20 mu g/kg) dose of ivermectin. This detailed dose-finding study provides information necessary for developing optimal regimens to treat bancroftian filariasis with ivermectin either alone or in combination with other medications.

NOVEL ITPV CATHETER DESIGN
SO ANESTHESIA AND ANALGESIA
LA English

ID JET VENTILATION; CONSTANT-FLOW; FREQUENCY; LUNGS; DOGS
AB A new mode of pulmonary ventilation called intratracheal pulmonary ventilation (ITPV) was studied. Briefly, a continuous flow of air/oxygen is introduced through a small catheter, the tip of which is positioned at the carina, with a diffuser mounted at its distal end. A timed expiration valve, when closed, provides for inspiration; when open, it provides for expiration. The system as first described had a potential for significant back pressure at the level of the carina, which was more at rapid gas flows and with smaller endotracheal tubes. We have now mounted a venturi on the tip of the catheter (reverse thrust catheter [RTC]) that avoids back pressure, and which facilitates expiration. At respiratory rates from 10 to 120/min, the ITPV system with the RTC maintained end-expiratory pressure at the level of the carina at, or near 0 cm H2O. Compared to conventional mechanical ventilation, at identical respiratory rates, this system reduced tidal volume by one half at the lowest respiratory rates, and by as much as two thirds at the highest respiratory rates, with a proportional decrease in peak inspiratory pressure. ITPV has the smallest minute volume ventilation of any conventional or nonconventional mode of pulmonary ventilation.

AB Patients with adductor and abductor spasmodic dysphonia were compared with normal controls on speech items particularly difficult for the two patient groups. Intrinsic and extrinsic laryngeal muscles were measured during adduction for voicing and for a glottal stop, and during abduction after a vowel and after a glottal stop. Muscle activity was measured while the patients attempted the speech items, with considerable difficulty, but not during periods of complete voice loss. Muscle activity at rest, activity increases for speech, and percent changes for adduction and abduction did not differ from normal in either patient group. The results demonstrated normal muscle activation levels and changes for speech in the patients, and suggested that symptoms occur when spasmodic bursts intrude on an otherwise normal pattern.

AB We investigated the safety and efficacy of amphotericin B colloidal dispersion (ABCD) for the treatment of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in persistently granulocytopenic rabbits. Treatment groups included ABCD in dosages of 1, 5, and 10 mg/kg/day intravenously or conventional desoxycholate amphotericin B (DAmB) at 1 mg/kg/day intravenously. Antifungal activity was directly related to increasing dosage of ABCD as determined by the concentration of Aspergillus fumigatus organisms in lungs and the frequency of hemorrhagic pulmonary lesions. At 5 and 10 mg/kg/day, there was a significant reduction in the tissue burden of A. fumigatus as measured by percent culture-positive lobes and CFU per gram of tissue (P less than or equal to 0.001), whereas at 1 mg/kg/day the tissue burden of A. fumigatus was not significantly different from that in untreated controls. Microbiological clearance was significantly greater at 1 mg of DAmB per kg per day than at 1 mg of ABCD per kg per day (P less than or equal to 0.001). There was no difference in microbiological clearance of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid among the treatment groups as measured by CFU per milliliter. As determined by survival, ABCD at 5.0 mg/kg/day was more effective than DAmB at 1.0 mg/kg/day and ABCD at 10 mg/kg/day. ABCD at 10 mg/kg/day was more nephrotoxic than the lower dosages of ABCD and resulted in higher mortality. Impairment of glomerular filtration developed as a direct function increasing the ABCD dosage (r = 0.77; P < 0.001). In summary, this study found dose-dependent antifungal activity and nephrotoxicity of ABCD against invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in persistently granulocytopenic rabbits and showed that the optimal dosage of ABCD for antifungal activity and safety was 5 mg/kg/day.

AB Background: One of the aims of the World Health Organization/Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Administration joint program on psychiatric diagnosis and classification is the development and standardization of diagnostic assessment instruments for use in clinical research worldwide. The International Personality Disorder Examination (IPDE) is a semistructured clinical interview compatible with the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, and the DMS-III-R classification systems. This is the first report of the results of a field trial to investigate the feasibility of using the IPDE to assess personality disorders worldwide.
Methods: The IPDE was administered by 58 psychiatrists and clinical psychologists to 716 patients enrolled in clinical facilities at 14 participating centers in 11 countries in North America, Europe, Africa, and Asia. To determine interrater reliability, 141 of the IPDEs (20%) were independently rated by a silent observer. To determine temporal stability, 243 patients (34%) were reexamined after an average interval of 6 months.
Results: The IPDE proved acceptable to clinicians and demonstrated an interrater reliability and temporal stability roughly similar to instruments used to diagnose the psychoses, mood, anxiety, and substance use disorders.
Conclusion: It is possible to assess personality disorders with reasonably good reliability in different nations, languages, and cultures using a semistructured clinical interview that experienced clinicians find relevant, meaningful, and user-friendly.

AB Exploratory behaviors as well as pharmacological actions of gamma-aminobutyric acid(A) (GABA(A))/benzodiazepine receptor agonists and inverse agonists were characterized in C57BL/6J and A/J strains of mice. C57BL/6J mice displayed higher levels of exploratory behavior than A/J mice in the light half arrow left over half arrow right dark exploration model of anxiety and in an open-field test, suggesting that C57BL/6J mice are less ''emotional'' and more active than A/J mice, respectively. However, C57BL/6J mice were more sensitive than A/J mice to the anxiolytic effects of diazepam in the light half arrow left over half arrow right dark exploration model. In contrast, A/J mice were more sensitive than C57BL/6J mice to the convulsant effects of methyl-beta-carboline-3-carboxylate. C57BL/6J mice showed no evidence of acquisition of a passive avoidance task, while A/J readily acquired this memory task at low levels of footshock. C57BL/6J and A/J mice should be useful parental strains in recombinant inbred lines for investigating the genetic determinants of benzodiazepine-sensitive behaviors and sensitivity to drugs acting on the GABA(A)/benzodiazepine receptor complex.

AB Insulin resistance is very common in the elderly, and may be associated with glucose intolerance or frank diabetes. In previous studies we demonstrated that insulin resistance in old Wistar rats is associated with decreased autophosphorylation and activation of the hepatic insulin receptor kinase (IRK) in vivo. We now show that this defect can be reproduced in vitro, where the extent of insulin-induced activation of IRK in liver membranes of old rats was decreased by similar to 50% compared with young controls. The defect could be largely abolished after solubilization of the membranes with Triton X-100. We also show that: (a) the viscosity of membranes from the old rats was significantly (P < 0.001, n = 4) higher (by 15%) compared with young controls; (b) incubation of plasma membranes from old animals with lecithin liposomes, which lowered their cholesterol levels, partially abolished the defect in IRK activation; and (c) Triton extracts of liver membranes prepared from old rats did not interfere with the activation of IRK derived from young controls. Additionally, non-membrane components did contribute to the development of this defect. We observed a significant (similar to 30%) (P < 0.001, n = 18) elevation of cytosolic protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) activity directed against the P subunit of the insulin receptor in livers of old rats. No such elevation of PTP activity could be demonstrated with synthetic substrates. Our findings are consistent with a model in which increased membrane viscosity as well as enhancement of a cytosolic PTP activity both markedly inhibit the activation in vivo of the hepatic IRK in old animals.

AB The interactions of the 70-kDa heat-shock proteins (hsp70s) with their protein substrates appear to be regulated by bound nucleotide. Previous work has shown that the nucleotide binding site of the bovine brain uncoating ATPase, a constitutive member of the hsp70 family, crystallographically resembles the nucleotide binding site of actin and, like actin, the uncoating ATPase has a strongly bound ADP which cannot be removed by dialysis or treatment with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA). This suggests that, like the bound nucleotide of actin, it may be required for the enzyme to retain its native structure. In this study, the strongly bound ADP was removed by first replacing it with 5'-adenylyl imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) and then removing the bound AMP-PNP by dialysis. Following this treatment, more than 95% of the uncoating ATPase becomes nucleotide-free. The nucleotide-free uncoating ATPase retains its ability to bind and hydrolyze ATP and to uncoat clathrin-coated vesicles, even after 10 days of storage at 4 degrees C. Therefore, in contrast to actin, the bound nucleotide of the uncoating ATPase is not required to prevent denaturation of the enzyme. Using nucleotide-free uncoating ATPase, we were able to accurately measure the dissociation constants of ATP, ADP, and the nucleotide analogues AMP-PNP and 2'-deoxyadenosine 5'-triphosphate (dATP). The dissociation constants of both ATP and ADP are about 10(-8) M, more than 1-2 orders of magnitude stronger than previously reported, while AMP-PNP and dATP bind 2-3 orders of magnitude more weakly than ATP.

AB The weight-average molecular weight of Cl (r) over bar, an activated serine protease subcomponent of complement Cl, was measured in the presence of widely varying concentrations of Ca2+ and the other serine protease subcomponent, Cl (s) over bar, by utilizing the technique of tracer sedimentation equilibrium. A quantitative model for heteroassociation between the two subcomponents, which takes into account the previously observed Ca2+-dependent self-association of Cl (s) over bar s, was fit to the combined data at each Ca2+ concentration. The results indicate that Cl (r) over bar, which exists as a dimer under all of the conditions explored in this work, can bind up to two molecules of Cl (s) over bar at both low and high Ca2+ concentrations, but the association constant for binding a single molecule of Cl (s) over bar to dimeric Cl (r) over bar is estimated to increase on the order of a 1000-fold as [Ca2+] increases from 1 nM to 1.0 mM. Heteroassociation of Cl (r) over bar and Cl (s) over bar is favored over self-association of Cl (s) over bar at all conditions. The results clearly indicate the necessity of taking into account a multiplicity of states of association when attempting to understand the equilibrium average properties of a mixture of the two subcomponents and their binding Clq in solution.

AB A full-length cDNA clone encoding the Xenopus laevis ribosomal protein L8 has been isolated and sequenced. The cDNA has an open reading frame of 257 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence is rich in basic residues and extremely homologous to the rat L8 protein. The Xenopus gene is ubiquitously expressed at fairly constant levels during development, consistent with its role as a house-keeping gene.

AB In order to examine the relationship between thyroid status, the circadian system, and antidepressant drug response, the antidepressant drug clorgyline, a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI), was administered chronically to sham-operated or thyroparathyroidectomized rats. Wheel-running was monitored continuously in a light-dark (LD) cycle, and then in constant dim light. In LD, MAOI treatment increased levels of running. This effect was delayed in hypothyroid rats relative to euthyroid rats. In constant light, the MAOI-induced increase in running was diminished in euthyroid but not hypothyroid animals. Hypothyroid animals were less responsive to the change in lighting than were euthyroid animals, and this was more apparent in hypothyroid rats given MAOI. The daily pattern of running differed with lighting condition as well as with treatment group. MAOI-treatment of hypothyroid animals phase-advanced the pattern of wheel-running. MAOI-treatment of control animals increased the amplitude of wheel-running particularly in the LD cycle. These results indicate that thyroid status, lighting, and MAOI treatment interact to alter the behavioral response to chronic drug treatment.

AB Patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) demonstrated significant levels of antibody for somatostatin-28, its C-terminal fragment somatostatin-14, and prodynorphin. In contrast there were lower levels of reactivity for somatostatin-28(1-14) (the N-terminal fragment of somatostatin-28) and negligible reactivity for several other peptides including beta-endorphin and corticotropin. Healthy volunteers and disease controls [schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, and subjects with advanced human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection] exhibited negligible reactivity. These data raise the consideration of an autoimmune mechanism for some OCD.

AB Although extensively pursued, the real respiratory neurons have remained elusive. We departed from the more conventional physiologic and morphologic methods of system and tissue examination and cultured dissociated fetal rat cells from the areas of the nucleus ambiguus and the nucleus tractus solitarius located within the 2 mm rostral to the obex. Pacemaker-like cells, with a regular single or bursting activity, studied at 3-5 weeks of age, responded to very small pulses of CO2 (50 ms) and low pH with an increase in spike frequency and a decrease in amplitude. Other irregularly beating or silent cells did not respond or else required very large pulses (>200 ms) to do so. The pacemaker cells also responded to hypoxia induced by administration of sodium hydrosulfite with an increase in spike frequency and amplitude; high oxygen (>600 Torr) and adenosine produced a decrease in electrical activity. Most of these cells were multipolar after staining with antibodies to neuron-specific enolase and fragment C of tetanus toxin. They did not stain for choline acetyltransferase. The results suggest that these cultured cells, expressing a phenotype inherently responsive to CO2 and low pH, have the characteristics of central respiratory chemoreceptors, and may be involved in the generation of the respiratory rhythm.

AB Many chronic diseases follow a course with multiple relapses into periods with severe symptoms alternating with periods of remission; experimental allergic encephalomyelitis, the animal model for multiple sclerosis, is an example of such a disease. A finite Markov chain is proposed as a model for analyzing sequences of ordinal data from a relapsing-remitting disease. The proposed model is one in which the state space is expanded to include information about the relapsing-remitting status as well as the ordinal severity score, and a reparameterization is suggested that reduces the number of parameters needed to be estimated. The Markov model allows for a wide range of relapsing-remitting behavior, provides an understanding of the stochastic nature of the disease process, and allows for efficient estimation of important characteristics of the disease course (such as mean first passage times, occupation times, and steady-state probabilities). These methods are applied to data from a study of the effect of a treatment (transforming growth factor-beta(1)) on experimental allergic encephalomyelitis.

AB Most theoretical analyses of tracer kinetics in capillaries contain an implicit assumption that the tissues to which they are connected have homogeneous material properties. The microscopic description of the exchange of tracer molecules and tissues is then modeled in terms of first-order kinetics. We consider a class of more general models allowing us to assess the robustness of simplifying assumptions made above. It is shown that when amorphous properties are important the kinetics of the system may differ considerably from those predicted by standard theories.

TI CANCER-THERAPY AND THE RANDOMIZED CLINICAL-TRIAL - GOOD MEDICINE
SO CA-A CANCER JOURNAL FOR CLINICIANS
LA English
DT Article
AB True improvements in the treatment of cancer-by the introduction of new drugs or novel drug combinations, new therapeutic modalities, or technologic improvements of old modalities-result in higher response rates and prolonged survival when compared with existing therapies. When a new treatment convincingly meets the test of improving survival rates or, at worst, improving patients' quality of life, it becomes the accepted standard of care if its side effects are acceptable and its cost is not prohibitive. Improved therapeutic results can be demonstrated only by clinical trials with an adequate numbers of patients, appropriate control subjects, and a sufficient duration of follow-up. Therapeutic breakthroughs are revolutionary advances in treatment, usually rapidly and dramatically obvious in comparison with historic controls; demonstration of benefit in these cases does not usually require randomized trials. Much more common, however, are new therapies that represent modest, incremental advances over existing treatment and that usually require randomized comparison trials to demonstrate convincingly statistically significant improvement. A randomized clinical trial should test an important hypothesis. It must be carefully designed to ensure that both groups of patients are comparable in terms of various prognostic variables and to minimize subtle sources of bias. An honest belief that both arms of the trial are a priori equal must be maintained. Meeting these criteria, the randomized clinical trial offers to the individual cancer patient treatment that should be at least equal to the best available nonexperimental therapy. This equates with Good Medicine.

AB Our previous investigations have implicated a cytochrome P450 mechanism in the oxygen contraction of the ductus arteriosus and, by extension, in the closure of the vessel at birth. This study was undertaken in fetal and newborn sheep to characterize the ductal cytochrome and gather insight into its operation. Other tissues, vascular and extravascular, were used as a reference. Benzo[a]pyrene hydroxylation (a marker for the 3-methylcholanthrene-inducible isozyme) and aminopyrine N-demethylation (a marker for the glucocorticoid-inducible isozyme) had insignificant activity in the ductus and aorta from fetal sheep, and no increase was noted after exposing the animal in utero to beta-naphthoflavone or dexamethasone, both alone and in combination with phenobarbital. However, dexamethasone and, particularly, dexamethasone plus phenobarbital produced a variable constriction of the fetal ductus. No monooxygenase activity was found in the naturally closing ductus of the newborn. Conversely, both enzyme reactions were measurable in the fetal liver, and they became more active after treatment with the inducers or at birth. Scanning immunoelectron microscopy of cultured endothelial and muscle cells from both ductus and aorta showed specific gold labelling for the glucocorticoid-inducible cytochrome P450 only in ductal muscle. By transmission electron microscopy, this immunoreactivity was located along the sarcolemma and in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. These findings indicate the presence in the ductus arteriosus of a cytochrome P450 belonging to the 3A subfamily. However, considering the uneven action of the inducers on enzyme activity in ductal tissue and muscle tone, the role of this cytochrome in closure of the vessel at birth remains to be ascertained.

AB The process of proliferation, invasion and metastasis is a complex one which involves both the autonomy of the malignant cells and their interaction with the cellular and extracellular environments. The way in which the tumor cells respond to cellular and extracellular stimuli is regulated through transduction of those signals and translation into cellular activity. Transmembrane signal transduction involves three major categories of events: ion channel activation, transmission through guanine nucleotide binding protein intermediates with production of second messengers, and phosphorylation events. A frequent common denominator of these different pathways is a cellular calcium homeostasis. Calcium may be both a result of and a regulator of many of these signal transduction pathways and has been shown to have a role in the regulation of proliferation, invasion, and metastatic potential. The understanding and application of the basic tenets of these pathways to tumor cell proliferation, invasion, and metastases opens a new target for therapeutic intervention. We have identified a novel agent, CAI, which through inhibition of stimulated calcium influx inhibits proliferation and migration in vitro, and growth and dissemination in human cancer xenografts in vivo. CAI offers a new a approach to cancer therapy, signal transduction therapy.

Nearly 14 percent of the participants were estimated to have a time-weighted, mean, radon concentration in their homes of more than 4 pCi/l (150 Bq/m3) during the period from five to 35 years prior to the date of lung cancer diagnosis (or comparable date for controls). There was a tendency for risk to increase with increasing levels of radon in NJ and Stockholm, but the trends for individual studies and overall were not statistically significant. The estimates of the excess relative risk for indoor exposure per pCi/l were 0.18 (95 percent [CI] = - 0.04-0.70) in NJ, 0.06 (CI = - 0.05-0.34) in Stockholm, and - 0.02 (CI = - infinity-0.03) for Shenyang; these estimates did not differ significantly from each other. The overall excess RR per pCi/l was 0.00 (CI = - 0.05-0.07); the confidence limits were sufficiently broad, however, that the overall estimate was still compatible with extrapolations of risks from miners. Cigarette smoking was the predominant cause of lung cancer with the RR significantly elevated in all studies. Within smoking categories, the trend in risk with increasing mean radon concentration was inconsistent. Analyses of data from several studies are complicated by the possibility that there may exist important differences in study bases which might affect results, and which may be controlled only partially through adjustment procedures. Future efforts to combine various residential studies will need to be attentive to the intrinsic limitations of studies to detect low levels of risk as well as the unique uncertainties associated with estimating, accurately, cumulative exposure to indoor radon.

AB Based on occupational data for all (n = 264) prostate cancer cases diagnosed during 1980-84 in urban Shanghai and on employment information from the 1982 census, standardized incidence ratios (SIR) were calculated for occupational groups classified by job type and physical activity level. White-collar workers (professionals, government officials, clerical workers, salespersons) had an elevated incidence of prostate cancer, although the excesses were not significant. In addition, when jobs were classified by time spent sitting or energy expenditure, men employed in occupations with low physical activity levels tended to have moderately elevated risks of prostate cancer. Findings from this study in an area with one of the world's lowest incidence rates of prostate cancer add to the accumulating evidence that jobs with a low level of physical activity are associated with an increased prostate-cancer risk.

AB Women with breast cancer (cases = 196) and without the disease (controls = 566), selected from the Life Span Study sample of A-bomb survivors and nonexposed residents of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan, and matched on age at the time of the bombings, city, and estimated radiation dose, were interviewed about reproductive and medical history. A primary purpose of the study was to identify strong breast cancer risk factors that could be investigated further for possible interactions with radiation dose. As expected, age at first full-term pregnancy was strongly and positively related to risk. Inverse associations were observed with number of births and total, cumulative period of breast feeding, even after adjustment for age at first full-term pregnancy. Histories of treatment for dysmenorrhea and for uterine or ovarian surgery were associated positively and significantly with risk at ages 55 or older, a finding that requires additional study. Other factors related to risk at older ages were the Quetelet index (weight [kg]/height [cm]2) at age 50, history of thyroid disease, and hypertension. Neither age at menarche nor age at menopause was associated significantly with risk. Subjects appeared to be poorly informed about history of breast cancer or other cancer in themselves or in their close relatives; this finding suggests that innovative strategies may be required when studying familial cancer patterns in Japanese populations.

HISTORY
AB Three breast cancer risk factors were evaluated in terms of their interactions with radiation dose in a case-control interview study of Japanese A-bomb survivors. Cases and controls were matched on age at the time of the bombings and radiation dose, and dose-related risk was estimated from cohort rather than case-control data. Each factor-age at first full-term pregnancy, number of deliveries, and cumulative lactation period summed over births-conformed reasonably well to a multiplicative interaction model with radiation dose (the additive interactive model, in which the absolute excess risk associated with a factor is assumed to be independent of radiation dose, was rejected). An important implication of the finding is that early age at first full-term pregnancy, multiple births, and lengthy cumulative lactation are all protective against radiation-related, as well as baseline, breast cancer. Analyses by age at exposure to radiation suggest that, among women exposed to radiation in childhood or adolescence, a first full-term pregnancy at an early age following exposure may be protective against radiation-related risk.

AB Tumor characteristics of 963 newly diagnosed invasive breast cancer cases from the population-based Black/White Cancer Survival Study were evaluated. Representative slides of the tumors were requested from all participating hospitals of three metropolitan areas and reviewed by one expert pathologist, blinded in regard to the age and race of patients. Nine tumor characteristics were evaluated for black and white patients. After adjusting for age, stage, and metropolitan area, blacks were significantly more likely to have high grade nuclear atypia [odds ratio (OR) = 1.97, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.27-3.04]; high mitotic activity (OR = 2.05, 95% CI = 1.34-3.14), grade 3 tumors (OR = 1.58, 95% CI = 1.02-2.45), and more necrosis (OR = 1.51, 95% CI = 1.16-1.98); and less likely to have well defined tubular formation (OR = 0.57, 95% CI = 0.42-0.77), marked fibrosis (OR 0.65, 95% CI = 0.45-0.94), and positive estrogen receptor status (OR = 0.78, 95% CI = 0.58-1.05). These black/white differences remained after controlling for socioeconomic status (SES), body mass index, use of alcohol and tobacco, reproductive experience, and health care access and utilization. No significant racial differences were found for blood vessel invasion and lymphatic invasion. Although white women of high SES had more favorable tumors than those of low SES, the same pattern was not observed for blacks. High SES black women had statistically nonsignificant elevated ORs of a high mitotic index and tumor grade. These racial differences in tumor biology may have etiological and clinical implications.

AB Some authors have reported an association of extensive metabolism of debrisoquine with increased lung cancer risk, although others have found no association. Debrisoquine metabolism is controlled by a cytochrome P-450 isozyme encoded at the CYP2D6 locus, which is inducible by antipyrine and rifampicin. Because lung tumors may produce a variety of humoral substances, we wanted to determine whether the tumor induced debrisoquine metabolism. As part of a case-control study of lung cancer, debrisoquine metabolism was measured in patients with histologically confirmed non-small cell lung cancer before and after surgical resection with curative intent. One hundred four incident patients with pathological stage I, II, or IIIA non-small cell lung cancer took debrisoquine (10 mg) orally at 10 p.m. and collected the subsequent 8-h urine both before and after surgery. We compared the values of the metabolic ratio, which is the percentage of the dose excreted as debrisoquine to the percentage of the dose excreted as the principal metabolite. The pre- and postoperative metabolic ratios were highly correlated (Pearson correlation coefficient = 0.96), and did not differ in value significantly (P = 0.88). Using traditional cutpoints (metabolic ratio, 1.0 and 12.6) to categorize the three metabolic phenotypes, the preoperative and postoperative phenotypes were well correlated (kappa = 0.78). These results show that the ability to metabolize debrisoquine is not induced by the presence of a primary lung tumor.

AB A randomized nutrition intervention trial was conducted among 29,584 adult residents of Linxian, China, to examine the effects of vitamin/mineral supplementation on the occurrence of esophageal/gastric cardia cancer in this high-risk population. A fractional factorial study design allowed evaluations of four different combinations of nutrients: (A) retinol and zinc; (B) riboflavin and niacin; (C) vitamin C and molybdenum; and (D) beta-carotene, vitamin E, and selenium. During the 5.25-year intervention, significant reductions in total mortality, total cancer mortality, and stomach cancer mortality occurred among those receiving beta-carotene, vitamin E, and selenium. At the end of intervention, an endoscopic survey was carried out in a sample of subjects to see if the nutritional supplements had affected the prevalence of clinically silent precancerous lesions and early invasive cancers of the esophagus or stomach. Endoscopy was performed on 391 individuals from two study villages. The prevalences of esophageal and gastric dysplasia and cancer were compared by nutrient factor. Cancer or dysplasia was diagnosed in 15% of the participants. No statistically significant reductions in the prevalence of esophageal or gastric dysplasia or cancer were seen for any of the four vitamin/mineral combinations. The greatest reduction in risk (odds ratio, 0.38; P = 0.09) was seen for the effect of retinol and zinc on the prevalence of gastric cancer. Although no significant protective effects were seen in this endoscopic survey, there was a suggestion that supplementation with retinol and zinc may protect against the development of gastric neoplasia in this high-risk population. Additional studies with larger numbers of endpoints will be needed to further evaluate this possibility.

AB Linxian, China has some of the highest rates of esophageal/gastric cardia cancer in the world, and epidemiological evidence suggests that chronically low intake of micronutrients may contribute to these high cancer rates. To examine whether supplementation with multiple vitamins and minerals can affect the occurrence of esophageal/gastric cardia cancer in this population, a two-arm randomized nutrition intervention trial was conducted among 3318 Linxian residents with cytological evidence of esophageal dysplasia. During the 6-year intervention, esophageal/gastric cardia cancer mortality was 8% lower among those receiving the active supplements. After 30 and 72 months of intervention, endoscopic surveys were carried out to see if the nutritional supplements had affected the prevalence of clinically silent precancerous lesions and early invasive cancers of the esophagus and stomach. In the first survey, in 1987, 833 subjects were endoscoped; in the second survey, in 1991, 396 subjects were examined. The histological diagnoses from each survey were compared by treatment group. Cancer or dysplasia was diagnosed in 28% of the subjects endoscoped in 1987 and 24% of those examined in 1991. The odds ratio for subjects in the treatment group (versus those in the placebo group) having esophageal or gastric dysplasia or cancer was 0.84 (95% confidence interval, 0.61-1.15) in 1987 and 0.86 (0.54-1.38) in 1991. Although modest protective effects on worst overall diagnosis were seen in the supplemented group in both surveys, none of the results was statistically significant, and the findings must be considered inconclusive. It is likely that longer interventions and larger numbers of endoscoped subjects will be required to fully investigate the effects of micronutrient supplementation in this population.

AB Studies of prostate biology support the concept that dihydrotestosterone is the principal androgen responsible for normal and hyperplastic growth of the prostate gland. Cancer is a process of malignant transformation evolving over time, involving cellular growth and division. Therefore, an altered endocrine state, such as suppression of dihydrotestosterone activity, may have an impact on prostate cells inhibiting carcinogenic transformation. In vitro and in vivo preclinical observations support this hypothesis. A placebo-controlled randomized trial using finasteride, an inhibitor of the enzyme that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone, is planned. The endpoint of this trial will be reduction of prostate cancer incidence.

AB To better understand the molecular mechanism of multistage carcinogenesis, we have attempted to identify putative oncogenes and/or tumor suppressor genes involved in preneoplastic-to-neoplastic progression of mouse epidermal JB6 variants. The JB6 variants consist of P- (promotion resistant), P+ (promotion sensitive), and Tx [transformed; both apoptosis-sensitive (A(5)) and apoptosis-resistant (A(r))] cells, representing progression from early to late stages of carcinogenesis. By using the newly developed differential mRNA display technique, we have isolated five clones from these JB6 variants. The isolated clones were uniquely expressed either in P-/P+ cells or in Tx (A(s)/A(r)) cells or showed highly differential expression among the variants. The expression pattern shown by differential mRNA display was confirmed by Northern blot analysis. DNA sequencing followed by computer search against Genbank and EMBL DNA databases indicates that three clones are novel and two have high homology with recorded genes. One of the clones (Cl.14), which detects expression in preneoplastic not neoplastic JB6 cells, was used as a probe for complementary DNA library screening. The corresponding gene, named sun for specifically unexpressed in neoplastic JB6 cells, was isolated and sequenced. The longest open reading frame of the sun clone predicts a peptide showing 96% amino acid sequence identity to the recorded sequence of human tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-3, one of a family of genes implicated in tumorigenesis and tumor invasion. This is the first report, to our knowledge, of the simultaneous display of mRNAs of four phenotypically distinct cell variants and of the isolation of five clones which may be associated with specific stages of tumor promotion and/or progression and apoptosis.

AB We have constructed a DNA plasmid encoding the full length complementary DNA for human carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) driven by the cytomegalovirus early promoter/enhancer (plasmid DNA encoding human CEA) and demonstrated that this plasmid can function as a polynucleotide vaccine. This polynucleotide vaccine induced humoral and/or cellular immune responses specific for human CEA in all 5 immunized mice. Lymphoblastic transformation data with the use of enriched T-cell populations detected the presence of CEA-specific memory T-cells in 3 of 5 mice. Lymphocytes from 2 of 5 mice had interleukin 2/interleukin 4 release in response to CEA. CEA specificity was confirmed by the absence of reactivity to a control antigen and lack of CEA reactivity among mice vaccinated with a control plasmid encoding chloramphenicol acetyltransferase. Four of 5 mice vaccinated with plasmid DNA encoding human CEA demonstrated anti-CEA antibody responses. This immune response compared favorably with a positive control group of mice immunized with vaccinia-CEA by a dose and schedule previously shown to induce immunoprotection and therapy against a human CEA expressing syngeneic murine colon carcinoma model. Studies are ongoing to establish the construct, dose, and schedule to elicit optimal CEA-specific immune response as well as immunoprotection and therapy against human CEA expressing syngeneic murine adenocarcinoma models.

AB The tumor growth suppressor WAF1/CIP1 was recently shown to be induced p53 and to be a potent inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases. In the present studies, we sought to determine the relationship between the expression of WAF1/CIP1 and endogenous regulation of p53 function. WAF1/CIP1 protein was first localized to the nucleus of cells containing mild-type p53 and undergoing G(1) arrest. WAF1/CIP1 was induced in wild-type p53-containing cells by exposure to DNA damaging agents, but not in mutant p53-containing cells. The induction of WAF1/CIP1 protein occurred in cells undergoing either p53-associated G(1) arrest or apoptosis but not in cells induced to arrest in G(1) or to undergo apoptosis through p53-independent mechanisms. DNA damage Led to increased levels of WAF1/CIP1 in cyclin E-containing complexes and to an associated decrease in cyclin-dependent kinase activity. These results support the idea that WAF1/CIP1 is a critical downstream effector in the p53-specific pathway of growth control in mammalian cells.

AB Short peptide fragments of intracellular proteins that fit a defined sequence moth bind to the most common human major histocompatibility complex class I molecule, HLAA*0201, and mediate killing by cytotoxic T-cells [D.F. Hunt et al., Science (Washington DC), 255: 1261-1263, 1992; K. Falk et al., Nature (Lend.), 351: 290-296, 1991]. The existence of such a motif allows prediction of whether novel peptides derived from mutant oncoproteins might be presented on the surface of cancer cells bearing that HLA allele. Clinical cancer might develop only when these mutations occur outside a major histocompatibility complex binding motif or in those cells that acquire defects in antigen presentation. Here, we find that missense mutations of p53 from a variety of tumors fall within the HLA A*0201 moth less often than would be expected if the location of mutations and motifs were independent. When we analyzed the HLA subtype of lung cancer cell lines with known p53 missense mutations, we found that all of the mutant oncopeptides predicted to be presentable by HLA A*0201 came from tumors that either did not carry the A*0201 allele or had lost that allele in the process of tumorigenesis. Presentation of mutant oncogene peptides on class I major histocompatibility complex might thus represent a physiologically significant selection pressure in the development of human cancer.

AB The multistage nature of cancer pathogenesis was first defined over 50 years ago by the sequential topical application of chemical agents to mouse skin. Since then, the skin model has provided remarkable insights into the biology, biochemistry, pharmacology, and genetics of carcinogenesis. Discoveries from studies of mouse skin have proved to be landmarks in cancer research including: the binding of carcinogens to DNA; the monoclonal origin of benign and malignant tumors; the powerful tumor-promoting action of phorbol esters; the antipromoting potency of retinoids and steroids; the modifying role of age, caloric intake, and specific dietary constituents on cancer induction; the variable risk far benign tumors to progress to cancer; and the requirement for multiple genetic changes in malignant conversion. Many of these concepts are now widely applied to the interpretation of specific molecular discoveries both in simple experimental systems and in human cancers, but the power of this quantitative, multistage skin carcinogenesis model has made these assessments possible. It has also provided the separation of mechanistically distinct stages in cancer pathogenesis: initiation; promotion; premalignant progression; and malignant conversion. This paper will review our current understanding of the genetic, biological, and biochemical alterations that contribute to the evolution of each of these stages in skin carcinogenesis. These new insights provide an opportunity to replace the traditional operational-based schemata defining the process of carcinogenesis with a working model designed around functional alterations in neoplastic cells.

AB CD44 is an integral membrane glycoprotein that functions as a receptor for the extracellular matrix glycan, hyaluronan. Here we report that CD44 is a novel biomarker for non-small cell lung tumors, squamous metaplasia of the lung, and activated type II pneumocytes. We have examined the expression of CD44 in 12 human lung tumor cell lines and 23 fixed, paraffin-embedded lung cancers. CD44 transcription and translation is consistently high among non-small cell tumors (5 of 5 cell lines, 10 of 14 tumors) but rare in small cell tumors (1 of 6 cell lines, 0 of 9 tumors). In normal lung, CD44 was confined to the surface of bronchial basai cells and alveolar macrophages. Squamous metaplasia of the lung showed strong CD44 immunoreactivity. Resting type II pneumocytes were Largely CD44 negative but rows of active, surfactant-secreting type II cells had significant amounts of CD44 located on lateral surfaces of adjacent cells. The correlation between CD44 and the non-small cell phenotype was further demonstrated in studies of a cultured small cell lung cancer line induced to exhibit characteristics of a non-small lung cancer by infection with v-Ha-ras. Following ras gene insertion, these cells showed a 40-fold increase in CD44 expression. The CD44 detected in lung cancer cells throughout these studies was predominantly the ''standard'' rather than the ''variant'' species. Taken together, these results suggest that CD44 is a protein expressed on non-small cell lung tumors, squamous metaplasia, and activated type II cells. In addition, CD44 in cultured small cell lung cancer cells is transcriptionally activated following differentiation by the ras oncogene. The fact that immunohistochemistry can be used to discriminate among the cell types makes CD44 a valuable new marker for lung neoplasia.

AB Nitric oxide (NO) has been shown to be involved in a number of physiological processes. In the presence of oxygen, this reactive diatomic molecule is capable of generating reactive nitrogen oxide species (NOx) which possess both nitrosating and oxidizing ability for various substrates, including certain biological macromolecules. This report shows the inhibition of the DNA repair protein, O-6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase, by Et(2)N[N(O)NO]Na (DEA/NO), a compound which decomposes with concurrent release of NO. The inhibition of the purified transferase activity by NO was dose- and time-dependent and the extent of inhibition by DEA/NO corresponded to the total quantity of NO released. This inhibitory effect by NO was also demonstrated to be reversible over time. The reaction of the NO released from DEA/NO with cysteine under aerobic conditions resulted in the formation of an S-nitrosothiol adduct, suggesting that a similar adduct could be responsible for the inactivation.

AB In order to address the hypothesis that 6-aminochrysene (6-AC) is converted to genotoxic products by cytochrome P450 enzymes via two activation pathways (N-hydroxylation and epoxidation), the activation of 6-AC and trans-1,2-dihydro-1,2-dihydroxy-6-aminochrysen (6-AC-diol) to genotoxic metabolites was examined in rat and human liver microsomal cytochrome P450 enzymes using Salmonella typhimurium TA1535/pSK1002 and TA1535/pSK1002/pNM12 (NM2009) as tester strains. The latter bacteria, an O-acetyl-transferase-overexpressing strain, was highly sensitive to metabolites derived from activation of 6-AC, but not those from 6-AC-diol, using liver microsomes from phenobarbital-treated rats or a reconstituted monooxygenase system containing P4502B1 or -2B2, thus suggesting the roles of P450 and acetyltransferase systems in the activation process. 6-AC-diol, on the other hand, was activated very efficiently by liver microsomes prepared from beta-naphthoflavone-treated rats or a reconstituted system containing P4501A1 or -1A2; the activation reaction is considered to proceed through diolepoxide formation. The contribution of rat P4501A enzymes towards activation of 6-AC-diol was confirmed by the inhibitory effects on the activation process of alpha-naphthoflavone, a specific inhibitor of P4501A-related activities, and antibodies raised against purified P4501A1 and -1A2. In humans, P4501A2 was found to be the major enzyme involved in the activation of 6-AC-diol to genotoxic metabolites while the parent compound 6-AC was activated mainly by P4503A4. Experiments using recombinant P450. proteins expressed in human lymphoblastoid cell lines showed that human P4501A1 could also activate 6-AC-diol to reactive metabolites at almost the same rate measured,vith P4501A2. In addition, P4502B6 was found to efficiently catalyze the activation of 6-AC to genotoxic metabolites, and P4503A4 was active in the activation of 6-AC-diol as well as 6-AC. Addition of purified rat epoxide hydrolase to the incubation mixture containing purified rat P4501A1 or microsomes expressing human P4501A1 caused inhibition of activation of 6-AC-diol. These results suggest the existence of different enzymatic activation pathways for 6-AC and 6-AC-diol. The former carcinogen may be N-hydroxylated principally by P4502B enzymes in rats and P4503A4 and -2B6 in humans and activation to its ultimate metabolites may proceed through esterification of the N-hydroxy metabolites by an N-acetyltransferase. The 6-AC-diol is metabolized to its ultimate diolepoxide product by P4501A enzymes in rat and human liver microsomes. P4503A4 (humans) and P4503A2 (rats) may also contribute to some extent in the activation of Q-AC-diol, albeit at lower rates than those of P4501A enzymes.

AB Humans are exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from various occupational, environmental, medicinal and dietary sources. The measurement of specific PAH metabolites, particularly 1-hydroxypyrene, in human urine treated with deconjugating enzymes (e.g. beta-glucuronidase) has been extensively used as a means of assessing recent exposure to PAHs. We have examined pyrene metabolites in human urine prior to enzymatic deconjugation in order to determine the relative proportions of conjugated and unconjugated pyrene metabolites. The analytical method utilized immunoaffinity chromatography, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and the complementary techniques of synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy (SFS) and gas chromatography - mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to measure pyrene-containing metabolites. SFS analysis of immunoaffinity-purified urine samples showed fluorescence spectra characteristic of the pyrene moiety (using wavelength differences of 34 nm, 54 nm and 102 nm). These spectra are produced by several PAHs containing the pyrene moiety. HPLC analysis with fluorescence detection indicated that the major fluorescent metabolite in immunoaffinity-purified urine was much more polar than simple hydroxylated metabolites of pyrene (1-hydroxypyrene) or benzo[a]pyrene (benzo[a] pyrene-diols or -tetrols), Following digestion with beta-glucuronidase, this metabolite co-chromatographed with authentic 1-hydroxypyrene and exhibited fluorescence spectra characteristic of 1-hydroxypyrene, suggesting that the major metabolite was a glucuronide conjugate of 1-hydroxypyrene. This was subsequently confirmed by GC-MS analysis of trimethylsilyl derivatives of the major metabolite; both 1-hydroxypyrene and glucuronic acid were detected independently as derivatized products. Since 1-hydroxypyrene glucuronide is approximately 5-fold more fluorescent than 1-hydroxypyrene, it may provide a more sensitive biomarker for assessing exposure to pyrene in mixtures of PAHs.

AB The purpose of our studies was to re-evaluate the rat tracheal epithelial (RTE) transformation system and to identify critical variables that affect the development of enhanced growth variants (EGV). The enhanced growth variant colony, which is a preneoplastic cell variant, is the quantifiable transformation endpoint in RTE cultures. Using a standard protocol the frequency of EGV colony formation was shown to be inversely related to the number of clonogenic cells (CFU) seeded per dish in control cultures as well as in cultures treated with the transforming agent 6-nitrochrysene (6-NC). Experiments showed that the major mechanisms that underlie the CFU density-dependent inhibition of EGV colony formation are depletion of growth factors from and accumulation of autocrine TGF-beta in the media. Thus the cells themselves are creating the selection environment, which allows only the EGVs to survive. The effects of agents such as 6-NC, which increase the frequency of EGV colony formation, are to induce a cellular phenotype that is less susceptible to the selection environment. We showed that TGF-beta-neutralizing antibodies added to the selection media significantly increased EGV colony formation in control cultures but not in 6-NC-exposed cultures. In addition we demonstrated that the development of EGV colonies is much less susceptible to inhibition by (exogenous) TGF-beta in 6-NC-exposed than in control cultures. Thus spontaneous and 6-NC EGV colony formation are distinguishable based on TGF-beta sensitivity. To conduct quantitative cell transformation experiments with RTE cells it is essential that the number of surviving CFU per dish is the same in control and treated cultures. Under the conditions used in the studies described here, 350-500 CFU per culture was found to be the optimum CFU density. Besides 6-NC, agents that have been shown to increase EGV colony frequency under conditions similar to those described here are nitrosamines, NNK, nickel compounds and X-rays.

AB Objective: The aim was to evaluate the effect of temperature on reoxygenation induced ventricular arrhythmias in isolated hearts, on delayed after depolarisations and I-ti current in Purkinje fibres, and on sarcoplasmic reticular function and Ca2+ handling of single cardiac myocytes. Methods: Isolated guinea pig hearts were retrogradely perfused at 37 degrees C with a hypoxic medium for 15 min and reoxygenated for 10 min either at 33 degrees C or at 37 degrees C. Intracellular microelectrodes were used to assess the presence of delayed afterdepolarisations and triggered activity in sheep Purkinje fibres exposed to strophanthidin at different temperatures. I-ti current was evaluated in voltage clamp experiments. In rat cardiomyocytes, loaded with the fluorescent Ca2+ dye, indo-1, the sarcoplasmic reticular Ca2+ content was assessed at 30 degrees C and at 37 degrees C, either by a caffeine spritz puffed onto a cell from a patch pipette or by a post-rest contraction. Results: Hypothermic reoxygenation reduced the incidence of ventricular arrhythmias in isolated hearts (30%, n = 10, at 33 degrees C and 75%, n = 30, at 37 degrees C, p < 0.05). In Purkinje fibres, hypothermia decreased the amplitude of delayed afterdepolarisations. Moreover, at 32 degrees C, the amplitude of I-ti current was decreased to 59.2(SEM 2.6)% of the normothermic value [27.5(6.7) nA, n = 4, p < 0.005] and time to peak increased to 159.7(10.2)% [value at 37 degrees C = 470(41) ms, n = 4, p < 0.01]. In cardiac cells, sarcoplasmic reticular Ca2+ release induced by caffeine spritz or by post-rest contraction was increased at 30 degrees C. However, following a pacing period at 1 Hz, hypothermia prolonged the time to onset of the first spontaneous Ca2+ oscillation [59(14) s at 30 degrees C and 27(9) s at 37 degrees C, n = 5, p < 0.05] and reduced the oscillation frequency [1.1(0.4) min(-1) at 30 degrees C and 3.1(0.9) min(-1) at 37 degrees C, n = 5, p < 0.05]. Conclusions: Mild hypothermia increases sarcoplasmic reticular Ca2+ content but decreases the likelihood of spontaneous Ca release. This may explain the reduction of delayed afterdepolarisations and I-ti current amplitude in Purkinje fibres and it could represent a mechanism for the protection provided by hypothermia against ventricular arrhythmias.

ID CELL-CYCLE
AB We have cloned both human and murine complementary DNAs that are homologous to the Drosophila serine/threonine polo kinase and the recently cloned murine polo related kinase (PLK). Both the human and murine clones are about 2.1 kilobases with open reading frames of 1.8 kilobases, encoding proteins of 603 amino acids with a predicted size of 66 kilodaltons and an apparent size of 67 kilodaltons by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis. During embryonic development of the mouse, the mRNA was expressed in all tissues examined, whereas in adult tissues, expression was limited to thymus and ovaries. All cell lines examined also expressed mRNAs of similar size. Microinjection of in vitro transcribed sense mRNA into serum-starved murine NIH3T3 cells induced tritiated thymidine incorporation, whereas microinjection of antisense RNA into growing NIH3T3 cells blocked tritiated thymidine incorporation. When PC12 rat cells were induced to differentiate with nerve growth factor, gene expression of PLK was greatly reduced. Together, these results suggest that PLK expression is restricted to, and is perhaps required by, proliferating cells.

AB In this study, we compare the expression patterns of p53 mRNA and protein in normal human mammary epithelial cells following synchronization to different points in the cell cycle using two independent methods. When treated with lovastatin, the cells were blocked in G(1) and appeared to express increased levels of wild-type p53 when examined by immunostaining. Upon reversal of the metabolic block, the number of nuclei that stained positively for p53 declined dramatically during mid-G(1) and increased again concomitant with the entry of cells into S phase. In contrast to the immunostaining results, Northern and Western blot analyses revealed little change in p53 mRNA and protein levels in the lovastatin-synchronized cells. When normal human mammary epithelial cells were made quiescent by removal of growth factors, the mRNA for p53 showed a biphasic distribution. p53 mRNA levels were increased during growth arrest, decreased during the C, phase, and rose again concomitant with the entry of cells into S phase. The immunostaining pattern of p53 also showed a biphasic distribution similar to the pattern of mRNA expression. Despite an increase in p53 mRNA and immunostaining levels, growth factor-arrested cells actually had less total p53 protein. Upon stimulation to proliferate, p53 protein levels remained low throughout G(1) and increased concomitant with the entry of cells into S phase. Taken together, the results from these studies demonstrate that p53 immunostaining patterns do not correlate with the overall levels of p53 protein at different times during the cell cycle. Therefore, the distinct changes observed in p53 immunostaining patterns are likely due to posttranslational modifications, conformational changes, or interactions of p53 with other cellular proteins during the cell cycle.

AB Gender differences in hemispheric asymmetry for language functioning have been reported in the neuropsychological literature, Despite numerous reports of anatomic asymmetries in corresponding cortical regions, the possibility of gender dimorphism in the putative neuroanatomical substrate of language has not been systematically examined in vivo. We assessed asymmetry of the planum temporale (PT), a supratemporal region of auditory association cortex, in 12 normal, right-handed females and 12 age-matched right-handed males with the aid of MRI surface-rendering morphometry. Bilateral areas were also assessed for Heschl's gyrus (HG), a supratemporal region of primary auditory cortex where no asymmetry was anticipated. We found a significant interaction between gender and hemisphere for the PT, with males having significantly larger left versus right PTs. Left-right differences in PT area were not significant among females (10 of 12 males showed leftward lateralization of the PT, vs 5 of 12 females). No main effect of gender was found for total (left + right) PT area, and no asymmetries or gender effects were detected for HG. This finding of gender dimorphism in PT area is consistent with evidence for reduced asymmetry among females in the lateralization of language functions attributable to the supratemporal cortex. The implications for theories about interactions between sex hormones and the development of brain asymmetries are discussed.

AB A perturbation theory is developed for the probability density for the displacement in reaction-diffusion equations of the form partial derivative(p)/partial derivative tau=epsilon(partial derivative/partial derivative y) [f(y)partial derivative p/partial derivative y] - (partial derivative/partial derivative y) [upsilon(y)p] - kappa(y)p. In this equation f(y), upsilon(y) and kappa(y) are dimensionless functions of y taken to be O(1), and epsilon is a dimensionless parameter which, in the diffusion-dominated regime satisfies epsilon << 1. We briefly also discuss the case in which upsilon(y) is also proportional to epsilson. Our results are then applied to an exactly solvable example.

AB Three experiments using 20 muM 2-(hydroxyamino)-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (N-OH-PhIP) were performed to induce mutations in the dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) gene of a hemizygous Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line (UA21). Metabolized forms of this chemical primarily bind at the C-8 position of guanine in DNA. In total, 21 independent induced mutants were isolated and 20 were characterized. DNA sequencing showed that the preferred mutation type found in 75% of the induced DHFR- clones was G.C --> T.A single and tandem double transversions. In addition to base substitutions, one mutant carried a -1 frameshift and another one had lost the entire locus by deletion. The induced changes affected purine targets on the nontranscribed strand of the gene in nearly all of the mutants sequenced (18/19). At the time that the first two experiments were performed, the initial adduct levels were quantitated in treated cells at the mutagenic dose by P-32-postlabeling. While the induced frequency of mutation was relatively low (approximately 5 X 10(-6)), the adduct levels after a 1-h exposure of UA21 cells to 20 muM N-OH-PhIP were relatively high (13 adducts x 10(-6) nucleotides). This latter method was then employed to learn if the induced mutation frequency correlated with rapid overall genome repair of PhIP-DNA adducts. Total adduct levels, determined using DNA samples from treated cells collected after intervals of time, were reduced by about 50% after 6 h, and about 70% after 24 h. Since overall genome repair in CHO cells is relatively slow compared with preferential gene repair, the removal of dG-C8-PhIP adducts was apparently efficient. In order to better understand the mutational and repair results, we performed computational modeling to determine the lowest energy structure for the major dG-C8-PhIP adduct in a repetitively mutated duplex sequence opposite dA. Results of this analysis indicate that the PhIP-modified base resembles previous structural determinations of (deoxyguanosin-8-yl)-aminofluorene; the carcinogen is in the B-DNA minor groove and it adopts a syn conformation mispaired with an anti A. The implications of this conformational distortion in DNA structure for damage recognition by cellular repair enzymes are discussed.

AB Background Balloon angioplasty of atherosclerotic arteries results in activation of the coagulation cascade. Several coagulation factors, including factor Xa and thrombin, are mitogenic for vascular smooth muscle cells in vitro and thus may play a role in restenosis after balloon angioplasty. Specific inhibition of factor Xa can be achieved with recombinant antistasin (rATS) or tick anticoagulant peptide (rTAP). We hypothesized that inhibition of Xa would limit restenosis after balloon angioplasty in an atherosclerotic rabbit model.
Methods and Results Focal femoral atherosclerosis was induced by air desiccation injury and a high-cholesterol diet in 38 New Zealand White rabbits. Recombinant antistasin (n=20 arteries) or rTAP (n=14 arteries) was administered by intravenous bolus at the time of balloon angioplasty and followed by a 2-hour infusion; controls (n=21 arteries) received bolus heparin alone (150 U/kg). Therapeutic prolongation of the activated partial thromboplastin time occurred, and antithrombotic drug levels were achieved in all animals. Luminal diameter in millimeters by quantitative angiography did not differ between treatment groups before (1.1+/-0.2 for controls, 1.1+/-0.2 for rATS, and 1.1+/-0.3 for rTAP) or after balloon angioplasty (1.5+/-0.3 for controls, 1.4+/-0.2 for rATS, and 1.4+/-0.2 for rTAP). At 28 days, treatment with factor Xa inhibitors tended to result in arteries with larger luminal diameter than controls (1.2+/-0.3 for rATS, 1.2+/-0.3 for rTAP versus 1.0+/-0.3 for control, P=.09 by one-way ANOVA). Restenosis, defined as reduction in angiographic luminal diameter (in mm) from 2 hours after angioplasty to 28 days after angioplasty was less in the rATS group than in controls (-0.2+/-0.1versus -0.5+/-0.4, P<.001) and tended to be less in the rTAP group (-0.3+/-0.2 versus -0.5+/-0.4, P=.07). Quantitative histopathological analysis showed less percent cross-sectional area narrowing by plaque in both rATS- and rTAP-treated arteries compared with controls (42+/-21%, 47+/-18%, and 63+/-14%, respectively; P<.01 by one-way ANOVA).
Conclusions We conclude that a 2-hour infusion of rATS or rTAP reduced angiographic restenosis and resulted in less luminal cross-sectional narrowing by plaque compared with controls.

AB Migration of endothelial cells is involved in normal and pathological angiogenesis and in reendothelialization after vascular injury or rupture of atherosclerotic plaques. Several types of endothelial cells are known to synthesize basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF); in some of these, migration is increased by exogenous bFGF and inhibited by anti-bFGF antibodies. Using immunocytochemical techniques and RNase protection analysis, we studied endothelial cells from bovine coronary arteries and veins as well as from adrenal microvessels. We found that bFGF mRNA and peptide were present in confluent endothelial cells and were upregulated during migration stimulated by removal of some cells from the monolayer. During migration, extracellular matrix stores of bFGF were depleted, and bFGF immunoreactivity began to accumulate in the cytoplasm of endothelial cells between 2 and 6 hours. After migration had begun, but before the initiation of DNA synthesis, bFGF immunoreactivity increased in the nuclei and nucleoli. Exogenous bFGF stimulated endothelial migration, and antibodies to bFGF markedly inhibited migration, suggesting that an intracrine function of nuclear bFGF is not sufficient for cell migration. In all three types of endothelial cells studied, bFGF was identified as an endogenous regulator, but not as the sole regulator, of migration. Moreover, bFGF expression and subcellular localization were found to be regulated during endothelial cell migration. (Circ Res. 1994;74:485-494.)

Western blot (immunoblot) analysis using recombinant tax demonstrated the presence of anti-tax antibodies in 96% of patients (25 of 26) with HTLV-I-associated myelopathy, 43% of those (20 of 46) with adult T-cell leukemia, and 61% of asymptomatic HTLV-I blood donors (40 of 66); only one of the HTLV-II specimens reacted with the recombinant tar protein. synthetic peptides (Tax8(106-125), Tax22(316-335), Tax-23(331-3)50, and Tax-24(336-353)) representing the immunodominant epitopes of p40(taxI) detected anti-tax antibodies in 66 (48%), 50 (36%), 66 (48%), and 64 (46%) of 138 HTLV-I-positive specimens, respectively. An enzyme immunoassay using an equimolar ratio of these four peptides allowed sensitive detection of anti-tax antibodies in 96% of patients (25 of 26) with HTLV-I-associated myelopathy,, 52% of adult T-cell leukemia patients (24 of 46), and 62% of asymptomatic HTLV-I-infected donors (41 of 66). The synthetic peptide-based cocktail assay aas HTLV-I specific, since none of the HTLV-II-infected specimens reacted with these peptides. Interestingly, the corresponding regions from the HTLV-II tax protein, Tax8II(106-125), and Tax-22II(312-331) did not react with either HTLV-II or HTLV-I specimens. Thus, a synthetic peptide-based assay composed of immunodominant epitopes located towards the amino terminus and at the C terminus of p40(taxI) provides a reliable and sensitive assay for the detection of anti-tax antibodies in seroepidemiologic studies.

AB Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a polyadenylated, positive-stranded RNA virus which is a major cause of enterically transmitted non-A, non-B hepatitis in many developing countries. The viral genome contains three different open reading frames (ORFs): ORF1, which is believed to encode nonstructural proteins, and ORF2 and ORF3, which are believed to encode structural proteins. The full-length putative structural proteins encoded by ORF2 and ORF3 of HEV have been cloned and expressed in recombinant vaccinia virus. Proteins encoded by ORF2 and ORF3 when expressed in vaccinia virus are recognized by pooled sera obtained from individuals with acute hepatitis E. Vaccinia expressed viral gene products of HEV will have utility in characterizing the cell-mediated immune response to HEV.

AB The majority of methods for determining high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol failed the 1991 College of American Pathologists (CAP) linearity survey (sets LN2-A,B,C). We hypothesized that they failed because of the survey material matrix. We evaluated linearity with dextran sulfate or phosphotungstate as the precipitating reagents for several methods: Ektachem; TDx; Sigma; Dimension; Cobas Fara, with Roche reagents; and the Hitachi 736, with precipitating reagents from Boehringer Mannheim Diagnostics. We tested CAP survey material, Sigma HDL-cholesterol control material, and a fresh serum pool for linearity, using the polynomial method. All of the methods were nonlinear for the CAP material and for the controls precipitated after dilution. Five of eight methods were linear for the control materials precipitated before dilution. All methods but one were linear for the serum pool. These results demonstrate that the source of the nonlinearity is located in the precipitation step and depends on the sample matrix.

AB To investigate the influence of race and cigarette smoking on serum levels of soluble interleukin-2 receptors (sIL-2R), we studied a population-based cohort of 282 white and 173 black adults, ages 20-69 years. Serum sIL-2R concentrations in this healthy population ranged from 146 to 2623 U/ml. Whites had significantly higher sIL-2R levels than blacks (455 versus 365 U/ml; P < 0.001), and cigarette smokers had significantly higher levels than nonsmokers (508 versus 420 U/ml; P = 0.01). White smokers had the highest levels (550 U/ml); white nonsmokers and black smokers had intermediate levels (455 and 450 U/ml, respectively); and black nonsmokers had the lowest levels (365 U/ml). Smoking cessation appeared to normalize sIL-2R levels; exsmokers who had not smoked for at least 2 years had sIL-2R levels similar to those of never smokers. These data demonstrate the wide range of serum sIL-2R concentrations found in normal healthy adults and the significant influence of race and cigarette smoking. Further investigation of this natural heterogeneity may provide insights into the mechanisms underlying genetic and environmental influences on this important immunologic parameter.

TI ESTIMATING MEMORY FUNCTION - DISPARITY OF WECHSLER MEMORY SCALE-REVISED

SO CLINICAL NEUROPSYCHOLOGIST
LA English
DT Article
AB Although a high degree of convergence has been reported between the California Verbal Learning Test (CVLT) and the Wechsler Memory Scale-Revised (WMS-R), standard scores from these tests may not provide commensurate global estimations of memory function. Data were reviewed from 161 subjects who had taken both tests, including schizophrenic (n=33) and temporal-lobe epilepsy (n=31) patients and 97 normal volunteers. The patient group performed approximately one standard deviation below the normal mean on the WMS-R indexes, but three standard deviations below the normal mean on CVLT indices. The normal volunteers, who were well-educated as a group, performed approximately one standard deviation above the population-based mean on the WMS-R (commensurate with their IQ level), but at the mean of the CVLT reference sample. These findings suggest that the standardization samples for these two tests are not representative of the same population. The CVLT normative reference sample appears to have been higher functioning than the WMS-R sample, and may also have been characterized by a narrower range of memory function. The implications of these findings with respect to the clinical evaluation of memory are discussed.

AB Correlational analysis of cerebral metabolic (rCMRglc) data obtained with positron emission tomography (PET) assesses group differences and has demonstrated reduced frontal-parietal rCMRglc interdependencies in Alzheimer's disease (AD). A multivariate analysis of rCMRglc data assesses individual differences. We recently identified discriminant functions, reflecting frontal-parietal rCMRglc interdependencies, that separated AD from control subjects. To test if the functions would identify an AD rCMRglc pattern in older Down syndrome (DS) adults with (DS DAT+) or without (DS DAT-) dementia, we applied the functions to longitudinal rCMRglc data in: young DS (n = 15), DS DAT- (n = 10), DS DAT+ (n = 4), and young controls (n = 15). Ah DS DAT+ and some of the later DS DAT- scans were classified as AD. The results provide additional validation of the functions and suggest their utility for the early detection of AD.

AB The secure working model classification of adult attachment, as derived from Main and Goldwyn's (in press) Adult Attachment Interview scoring system, was considered in terms of earned-security and continuous-security. Earned-security was a classification given to adults who described difficult, early relationships with parents, but who also had current secure working models as indicated by high coherency scores; continuous-security referred to a classification in which individuals described secure early attachment relationship with parents and current secure working models. Working models of attachment were classified as earned-secure, continuous-secure, or insecure in a sample of 40 parents of preschool children. Comparisons among the classifications were conducted on a measure of depressive symptoms and two sets of ratings of observed parenting styles. Adults with earned-secure classifications had comparable depressive symptomatology to insecures, with 30% of the insecures, 40% of the earned-secures, and only 10% of the continuous-secures having scores exceeding the clinical cut-off. The rate of depressive symptomatology in the earned-secure group suggests that reconstructions of past difficulties may remain emotional liabilities despite a current secure working model. With regard to parenting styles with their preschoolers, the behavior of earned-secure parents was comparable to that of the continuous-secures. This refinement in conceptualizing secure working models suggests ways for understanding variation in pathways to competent parenting as well as a possible perspective on how adults' adverse early experiences may continue to place them and their children at risk.

AB The expression of developmental stage-specific genes during pulp cell differentiation into preodontoblasts was examined in bovine adult pulp cell culture. When proliferation was down-regulated after 14 days of primary culture, expression of fibronectin and type I and type III collagen mRNAs was increased. Expression of alkaline phosphatase was gradually increased, and mRNA for osteocalcin, a marker of preodontoblast, appeared just before the onset of mineralization. Contrarily, in expanded culture, the expression of mRNA for the extracellular matrix proteins was gradually increased from the beginning of culture up to Day 28. Similarly, mRNA levels of alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin were also increased gradually. Expression of TGF-beta 1 mRNA disappeared on Day 21 in the primary culture when expression of alkaline phosphatase mRNA Fi;as increased. BMP-4 mRNA was expressed on Day 14 when the expression of the extracellular matrix proteins was increased. BMP-2 mRNA was expressed on Day 28 when osteocalcin appeared. Recombinant TGF-beta 1 inhibited alkaline phosphatase activity, while BMP-2 and BMP-I stimulated it. BMP-I increased expression of alpha 1(I) collagen mRNA, and BMP-2 increased osteocalcin synthesis. These results demonstrate the regulatory role of these TGF-P superfamily members on the gene expression of extracellular matrix proteins and the differentiation of pulp cells into preodontoblasts.

AB Xenopus Distal-less-like-2 (Xdll-2) is a gene encoding a homeodomain protein expressed predominantly in the epidermis of frog embryos. We report here that this epidermal expression is specified by a regulatory 5' flanking DNA region located within 933 bp of the start of transcription. This regulatory DNA also confers upon a globin reporter gene calcium-inducible expression in cultured murine keratinocytes and induction-dependent repression in frog ectodermal cells treated in vitro with activin A. These results reveal a new example of phylogenetically conserved, tissue-specific transcriptional regulation of a homeodomain gene. (C) 1994 Academic Press, Inc.

AB Glycated haemoglobin could offer several practical advantages over the OGTT for assessing glucose metabolism. Initial cross-sectional studies (1983-1985) on 381 subjects (mostly Pima Indians) described the relationship between HbA(1c) (a specific glycated Hb) and the OGTT. We performed follow-up OGTTs and HbA(1c) measurements on 257 of these same subjects 1.6-6.1 years later. Subjects were again grouped according to both the result of the OGTT (normal,IGT or diabetes, by WHO criteria) and HbA(1c) result: (normal or elevated based on mean +/- 1.96 SD of normal). Of 66 subjects with IGT at baseline, 47 (71 %) had normal HbA(1c) and 19 (29 %) had elevated HbA(1c). Twenty-six (39 %) of these subjects had diabetes at follow-up. Of these subjects with IGT, a significantly greater percentage of subjects with elevated HbA(1c) at baseline (68 %) showed worsening to diabetes than those with a normal-HbA(1c) (28%); (chi-square=7.8, df=1, p < 0.01). Thus, in subjects with IGT, glycated Hb may be a useful predictor of progression to diabetes.

AB The structure-activity relationships for a variety of adenine nucleotide analogues at P-2X- and P-2Y-purinoceptors were investigated. Compounds formed by structural modifications of the ATP molecule including substitutions of the purine ring (C2, C8, N1, and N-6-substituents, and a uridine base instead of adenine), the ribose moiety (2' and 3'-positions), and the triphosphate group (lower phosphates, bridging oxygen substitution, and cyclization) were prepared. Pharmacological activity at P-2Y-purinoceptors was assayed in the guinea pig taenia coli, endothelial cells of the rabbit aorta, smooth muscle of the rabbit mesenteric artery, and turkey erythrocyte membranes. Activity at P-2X-purinoceptors was assayed in the rabbit saphenous artery and the guinea-pig vas deferens and urinary bladder. Some of the analogues displayed selectivity, or even specificity, for either the P-2X- or the P-2Y-purinoceptors. Certain analogues displayed selectivity or specificity within the P-2X- or P-2Y-purinoceptor superfamilies, giving hints about possible subclasses. For example, 8-(6-aminohexylamino)ATP and 2',3'-isopropylidene-AMP were selective for endothelial P-2Y-purinoceptors over P-2Y-purinoceptors in the guinea pig taenia coli, rabbit aorta, and turkey erythrocytes. These compounds were both inactive at P-2X-purinoceptors. The potent agonist N-6-methyl ATP and the somewhat less potent agonist 2'-deoxy-ATP were selective for P-2Y-purinoceptors in the guinea pig taenia coli, but were inactive at P-2X-purinoceptors and the vascular P-2Y-purinoceptors. 3'-Benzylamino-3'-deoxyATP was very potent at the P-2X-purinoceptors in the guinea pig vas deferens and bladder, but not in the rabbit saphenous artery and was inactive at P-2Y receptors. These data suggest that specific compounds can be developed that can be utilized to activate putative subtypes of the P-2X- and P-2Y-purinoceptor classes. (C) 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

AB The effects of acute and chronic acetone administration on hepatic Cyp2e1 were investigated in mice. Acute treatment consisted of a single dose of acetone (5 ml/kg) given intragastrically, whereas the chronic regimen consisted of 1% acetone in drinking water for 8 days. We examined 1) relative induction of Cyp2e1 protein by immunoblotting, 2) relative induction of enzyme catalytic activity (p-nitrophenol hydroxylation), and 3) Cyp2e1 mRNA levels associated with acute and chronic treatment regimens. Western immunoblotting, using a monoclonal antibody (Mab 1-98-1) specific for rat ethanol-inducible P-450, detected a band of M(r) 51,000 in liver microsomes of both control and acetone-treated mice. Densitometric quantitation showed significant enhancement of the intensity of this band by 4.4- and 5.3-fold after acute and chronic acetone treatments, respectively. Hydroxylation of p-nitrophenol was increased 2.3-fold in microsomes from livers exposed acutely to acetone, as compared with an increase of 3.7-fold in microsomes from livers exposed chroni cally. The induction of Cyp2e1 protein, as well as of catalytic activity, by acetone was not accompanied by significant alterations in the levels of Cyp2e1 mRNA. These results demonstrate a difference in induced increases of Cyp2e1 between acute and chronic acetone treatments: significantly higher induction of both protein and catalytic activity is induced by treatment under chronic vs. acute conditions.

LA English
DT Article
AB Male Sprague-Dawley rats had their bile ducts cannulated and were dosed with [H-3]taxol (2 mg/kg, 68-77 mu Ci/mg) as a continuous intravenous infusion for 6 hr so that the plasma concentrations, tissue distribution, metabolism, and biliary secretion of taxol could be studied. Defining potential drug-drug interactions of taxol with cimetidine (90 mg/kg), probenecid (360 mg/kg), and ketoconazole (50 mg/kg) was motivated by frequent concomitant clinical use or the potential to reduce clearance of taxol so that lower doses could be used. At 6 hr, rats were killed. Samples of blood (plasma), lung, spleen, liver, kidney, heart, skeletal muscle, brain, testes, and fat were obtained. Taxol and metabolites were measured by total radioactivity counting and HPLC separation using on-line radioactivity detection. Concentrations of taxol in plasma increased to 0.19 mu M in the control rats and did not reach steady-state by 6 hr. Lung, spleen, liver, and kidneys had the greatest tissue taxol concentrations [4.7-5.7 nmol/g (mu M)] and were > 25-fold higher than the simultaneous 6-hr plasma taxol concentration. Taxol concentrations in brain and testes were negligible, 0.06 and 0.07 nmol/g, respectively. Radioactive metabolites were not found in plasma or most tissues. Only liver had appreciable concentrations of taxol and metabolites; however, > 80% of hepatic radioactivity was parent taxol. Through 6 hr of collection, 24% of the dose was secreted in the bile similar to 38% of which was as parent taxol. Cimetidine had no effect on the distribution, metabolism, or elimination of [H-3]taxol. Probenecid did not effect tissue distribution or plasma concentrations of (axel. Probenecid decreased the biliary secretion of taxol and metabolites by 50%. Rats pretreated with ketoconazole had biliary secretion of taxol, and metabolites decreased to 25% of control with a concomitant increase in plasma taxol concentration.

AB High resolution two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE) in combination with computer-assisted densitometry was used to analyze sequential changes in polypeptide expression during chemically (aflatoxin B1; AFB), spontaneously, and oncogene (v-Ha-ras, v-raf, and v-raf/v-myc)-induced experimental rat hepatocarcinogenesis. Two-dimensional mapping of [S-35]methionine and [P-32]orthophosphate-labeled whole cell lysate and nuclear polypeptides revealed subsets of polypeptides specific for each transformation modality in the in vitro rat liver epithelial (RLE) transformation model. Many of the observed changes in whole cell lysate preparations were localized to specific subcellular organelles. Significant alterations in the expression of the extracellular matrix protein, fibronectin, as well as tropomyosin- and intermediate filament-related polypeptides (vimentin, P-tubulin, cytokeratins 8, 14, and 18, and actin) were observed among the various transformant cell lines. Whereas alterations in the tropomyosin isoforms appeared to be transformation specific, concomitant modulation of intermediate filament expression was related more to the differentiation state of the individual cell lines than to the transformed phenotype. To integrate protein and DNA information of polypeptides believed to be critically involved during cellular transformation, N-terminal amino acid microsequencing of selected nuclear polypeptides was performed. Preliminary results suggest that N-terminal blockage of rat liver epithelial nuclear proteins to be minor (similar to 20%) with sequencing sensitivity of one pmol. These studies extend our on-going efforts toward the establishment of computerized database of rat liver epithelial cellular proteins (Wirth et al., Electrophoresis, 1991, 12, 931-954) to aid in the delineation of polypeptides critically involved in cellular growth and differentiation as well as transformation.

AB The stress70 protein chaperone family plays a central role in the processing of cytosolic and secretory proteins. We have cloned a human cDNA, designated Stch, that is conserved in rat tissues and which encodes a novel microsome-associated member of the stress70 protein chaperone family. Stch mRNA is constitutively expressed in all human cell types and is induced by incubation with the calcium ionophore A23187, but not by exposure to heat shock. Inspection of the predicted amino acid sequence reveals that the STCH product contains a unique hydrophobic leader sequence and shares homology within the amino terminal domains of the stress70 gene family, but has a 50 residue insertion within the ATP-binding domains and truncates the carboxyl terminal peptide-binding region. Immunofluorescent and subcellular analyses show that STCH migrates predominantly as a 60 kDa species and is enriched in a membrane-bound microsome fraction. In contrast to purified BiP and dnaK, however, STCH demonstrates ATPase activity that is independent of peptide stimulation. Stch, therefore, encodes a calcium-inducible, microsome-associated ATPase activity with properties similar to a proteolytically cleaved N-terminal HSC70/BiP fragment. This truncated stress70 molecule may allow increased diversity in cellular responses to protein processing requirements.

AB Human lactoferrin gene contains a functional, estrogen-response element (ERE) that is responsible for the estrogen-stimulation of the gene in uterine endometrium. A DNA fragment (-418 to -340), including the ERE, is selectively protected by nuclear protein of endometrial (RL95) and mammary gland (HBL100) cells from DNAase I digestion. This region was divided into three footprint areas; FP1, FP2 and FP3. FP2 (-373 to -360) contains a potential GATA-3 binding element; FP3 (-355 to -340) houses the ERE. At least three nuclear proteins were involved in binding to the FP1 (-418 to -378) and porduced three protein-DNA complexes in the electrophoresis mobility shift assay (EMSA). One protein-DNA complex was formed with the 5' end and two were formed with the 3' end of FP1. There were three potential transcription factor binding elements located at the 3' end region (5'-ACCTTCAAGGTCATCTG-3'); a palindromic COUP-TF binding element (5'-ACCTTCAAGGT-3'); a consensus ELF (5'-TCAAGGTCA-3') and HLH (5'-CATCTG-3') binding elements. By using the COUP-TF antibody and ov-COUP-TF binding element in EMSA, we demonstrated that one of the protein-DNA complexes (C2) that formed with this DNA fragment involved COUP-TF. It was also shown that COUP-TF bound to a direct repeat of AGGTCA at -363 to -350 (FP2 and FP3 region) of the lactoferrin promoter. The GGTCA at 3' half of the direct repeat overlapped with ERE. Thus, the currently identified two COUP-TF binding elements were both overlapped by a positive transcription factor binding element. The unique organization of overlapping positive and negative transcription factor binding elements in human lactoferrin promoter provides an opportunity to study the complicated regulation that modulates its expression.

AB To explore the role of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF beta) isoforms and other growth-related genes during prostate morphogenesis in the mouse, we examined mRNA levels in fetal day 17 urogenital sinus, mesenchyme (UGM), and epithelium (UGE) as well as in the ventral, dorsal, and anterior lobes of the adult prostate. In addition, we used antiserum specific for extracellular TGF beta 1 in immunohistochemical studies to localize accumulation of the TGF beta 1 isozyme in the above tissues as well as those derived from fetal day 19 and neonatal mouse prostate. Differential patterns of expression in fetal and adult tissues were seen. TGF beta 1, -beta 2, and -beta 3 expression was substantially elevated in UGM compared to that in UGE, yet only TGF beta 1, not TGF beta 2 or TGF beta 3, mRNA levels were sustained in adult prostate tissues. High levels of accumulation of TGF beta 1 were demonstrated by immunohistochemistry in the mesenchymal compartment compared to those in the epithelial compartment throughout development. Interestingly, the highest levels of TGF beta 1 appeared in areas of active epithelial duct formation and delineated the mesenchymal architectural changes necessary for ductal network formation. Additional studies revealed that levels of mRNAs for other genes involved in tissue remodeling and growth were also elevated in UGM compared to those in UGE. Tissue plasminogen activator, urokinase plasminogen activator, androgen receptor, and c-myc mRNA levels were also elevated in UGM compared to UGE. Interestingly, whereas tissue plasminogen activator mRNA levels, like those of TGF beta 2 and -beta 3, were barely detectable in adult prostatic tissues, mRNA levels for urokinase plasminogen activator, androgen receptor, and c-myc were readily detected and expressed in a lobe-specific fashion. Overall, these data indicate that expression of TGF beta 1 isoforms and other growth-related genes is associated with mesenchymal cells in areas of active morphogenesis during prostate development and provide objective molecular and cellular information regarding mediators of mesenchymal-epithelial interactions in prostate.

TI LINEAR GROWTH IN THE RABBIT IS CONTINUOUS, NOT SALTATORY
SO ENDOCRINOLOGY

DT Article
ID LONGITUDINAL BONE-GROWTH; DEXAMETHASONE; PLATE; RAT
AB A recent report in Science suggests that human growth occurs in brief bursts, up to 1.65 cm in a single day, separated by extended periods of stasis, lasting up to 63 days. Thus, the organism is proposed to alternate between two states, one with a growth velocity of zero, the other with a mean annualized growth velocity greater than 350 cm/yr. These observations, if correct, suggest the existence of a previously unsuspected hormonal mechanism capable of abruptly switching growth plate cell division on and off and of synchronizing cellular growth not only throughout the growth plate, but presumably throughout all the growth plates in the organism. However, the experimental assessment of short-term growth velocity in the human faces the formidable obstacle of a technical error of measurement that exceeds the mean daily growth rate. Accordingly, we tested the saltatory growth hypothesis by measuring proximal tibial growth in the rabbit, a model in which daily growth rate could be measured more than 15 times more accurately than in the human. The model of saltation and stasis predicts a majority of daily growth velocities clustered around zero, and a minority of high growth velocities, that is, a bimodal distribution. The frequency distribution of observed daily growth velocities instead approximated a single Gaussian distribution, indicating continuous growth. We conclude that linear growth, in the most accurate mammalian system yet studied, is continuous, not saltatory.

AB Acutely scorbutic and fasted (vitamin C-supplemented) guinea pigs exhibit decreased collagen gene expression associated with weight loss. We recently demonstrated that circulating insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-1 and -2 (IGFBP-1 and -2) are induced in these deficiencies, and that removal of IGFBP-1 and -2 from serum of such animals by specific antibodies reverses inhibition of cellular IGF-I-dependent functions, including collagen and DNA synthesis. Here we investigated the kinetics of induction of IGFBP-1 and -2 relative to suppression of collagen gene expression. Guinea pigs were fasted for 10-96 h, with 3-24% weight loss, or received an ascorbate-free diet for up to 4 weeks, with 5-28% weight loss during the third and fourth weeks (phase II of scurvy). In both deficiencies, there was noncoordinate regulation of collagen mRNA expression in tissues. Type I collagen mRNA concentrations in skin decreased rapidly after 5-10% weight loss and reached about 10% of normal levels, whereas in bone, there was a later, and not as extensive, decrease. The concentration of cartilage type II collagen mRNA decreased rapidly initially, but then remained at 40-50% of normal. Circulating IGF-I concentrations remained normal during the period when collagen gene expression was initially suppressed, although there was a later decrease. In contrast, mRNAs for IGFBP-1 and -2 and the circulating proteins were induced before or concomitantly with the suppression of collagen gene expression. The ability of fasted or scorbutic guinea pig sera to inhibit IGF-I action in cells increased in parallel with IGFBP activity ([I-125]IGF-I binding), which, in turn, mainly reflected the concentration of IGFBP-1 in sera. Serum insulin may be the primary regulator of the IGFBPs. Its levels were decreased to 10-13% of normal when weight loss commenced, whereas cortisol levels, although increased, did not correlate with the induction of IGFBPs. The overall results taken together with our recent findings from cell culture experiments are compatible with circulating IGFBP-1 and -2 acting as inhibitors of collagen gene expression by blocking IGF-I action during fasting and phase II of vitamin C deficiency.

AB The contributions of phospholipase-C and -D to diacylglycerol (DG) formation during agonist-induced cell signaling were investigated in rat pituitary cells and alpha T3-1 gonadotrophs. In both cell types, GnRH caused a biphasic increase in DG formation, with an initial spike within 60 sec, followed by a larger and sustained rise to reach a second peak after 15 min of stimulation. Both phases of DG production were temporally correlated with inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P-3] formation, consistent with the dependence of DG formation on phospholipase-C-mediated phosphoinositide hydrolysis. However, the ability of GnRH to stimulate phosphatidylethanol (PEt) in the presence of ethanol suggested that phospholipase-D may also participate in DG formation. Two inhibitors of phospholipase-C-dependent phosphoinositide hydrolysis, U73122 and neomycin sulfate, reduced the PEt as well as the Ins(1,4,5)P-3 response to GnRH, indicating that phospholipase-D is activated during phospholipase-C-dependent signaling in pituitary gonadotrophs. The production of both DG and PEt was increased by treatment with the active phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), but not with inactive 4 alpha-phorbol 13-didecanoate, indicating that stimulation of protein kinase-C leads to activation of phospholipase-D. In accord with this, GnRH- and PMA-induced elevations of DG and PEt production were attenuated or abolished in protein kinase-C-depleted cells. In contrast, short and long term stimulation with PMA had no effect on basal inositol phosphate production. Also, GnRH-induced inositol phosphate production was not affected by protein kinase-C depletion. Finally, U73122 and neomycin sulfate did not inhibit PMA-induced PEt formation. These data indicate that GnRH activates a dual phospholipase pathway in a sequential and synchronized manner; phospholipase-C initiates the biphasic increase in Ins(1,4,5)P-3 and DG formation, and protein kinase-C mediates the integration of phospholipase-D into the signaling response during the sustained phase of agonist stimulation.

AB Sulfonylureas interact with specific, high affinity receptors on the pancreatic P-cell to close ATP-sensitive K+ channels, depolarize the cell, activate Ca2+ influx through voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels, and trigger insulin secretion. We tested the hypothesis that sulfonylureas promote glucose uptake into 3T3-L1 cells or isolated rat adipocytes by similar mechanisms. Using I-125-labeled 5-iodo-2-hydroxyglyburide and either equilibrium binding or photoaffinity labeling, a high affinity sulfonylurea receptor was not found on plasma membranes of either the 3T3-L1 cells or rat adipocytes. Furthermore, glyburide did not inhibit Rb-86(+) efflux (a marker for ATP-sensitive K+ channel conductance), increase free cytosolic calcium in adipocytes or 3T3-L1 cells, or increase basal or insulin-stimulated glucose uptake into 3T3-L1 cells or rat adipocytes. Parallel studies using a hamster insulin-secreting tumor cell line (HIT cells) easily demonstrated both the receptor and biological effects of glyburide on free cytosolic calcium and insulin secretion. Thus, rat adipocytes and 3T3-L1 cells do not possess the high affinity sulfonylurea receptor or respond to glyburide alone. We conclude that the antidiabetogenic effects of sulfonylureas are not mediated by a direct action of sulfonylureas to increase glucose uptake into adipose tissue and suggest that the major locus for sulfonylurea action is the beta-cell.

AB Using data on 1,860 bladder cancer cases and 3,934 population-based controls from the National Bladder Cancer Study, we examined associations between suspected bladder cancer risk factors and tumor stage and grade. Employment in a high-risk occupation was associated-with the entire clinical spectrum of bladder cancer rather than a particular tumor stage or grade. For example,relative risks (RR) were similar for noninvasive and invasive disease (1.5 and 1.6, respectively). Cigarette smoking also increased risk of the entire clinical spectrum of bladder cancer, but the more advanced the stage, the stronger the effect. For example, relative risks of noninvasive and invasive bladder cancer for current heavy smokers were 3.0 and 5.2, respectively. Cigarette Smoking was associated with higher risk of low-grade than high-grade tumors, once stage of disease was taken into account. Compared with whites, nonwhites were at a lower risk of noninvasive bladder cancer (RR = 0.4) but at similar risk of invasive bladder cancer (RR = 1.1), a pattern indicating racial differences in health practices related to bladder cancer detection. History Of urinary tract infections and bladder stones was associated with increasing relative risks for advanced tumor stage. Heavy artificial sweetener Use was associated with higher-grade, poorly differentiated tumors. Coffee consumption and family history of bladder cancer were not consist entry associated with tumor stage or grade. Overall, different clinical presentations of bladder cancer share most suspected bladder cancer risk factors, including employment in a high-risk occupation and cigarette smoking.

AB We assessed seasonal reporting bias in a 59-item food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) administered throughout 1 year using data from the 1987 National Health Interview Survey (N = 20,143 adults). Few meaningful differences were found in the proportion of individuals reporting rarely or-never consuming a: food by season of questionnaire administration. Seasonal reporting bias is evident in FFQs, however, and appears to be due to reporting most recent consumption Using gender-specific median servings per week, an analysis using logistic regression showed that the estimated proportion of individuals reporting food intake at greater than the yearly: median differed:between any two seasons by at least 5% of the population for 22 foods. We compared gender-specific quintiles of selected nutrients/food groups for the whole year and each season; these showed that quintile assignment never varied by mere than one adjacent quintile. The most frequent shift in quintile assignment, involving as many as 18.5 % of women in the summer, occurred for citrus fruits. The intake biases are small and do not greatly affect population estimates if the FFQ is administered in all seasons, but they may somewhat affect classification of individuals into quantiles for some foods/nutrients.

AB The kynurenine pathway metabolites, quinolinic acid (QUIN) and L-kynurenine are convulsants, whereas kynurenic acid (KYNA) is an antagonist of excitatory amino acid receptors. Imbalances in the concentrations of these metabolites have been implicated in the etiology of human seizure disorders. In the present study, L-kynurenine and QUIN concentrations in both cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum were reduced in patients with intractable complex partial seizures (CPS) in both the postictal period (15-75 min after a seizure) and the interictal period (absence of seizure for >24 h) as compared with neurologically normal control subjects. Linear regression analyses and analysis of covariance showed that the reductions in serum QUIN and L-kynurenine were correlated to blood antiepileptic medication. L-Tryptophan (L-TRP) levels also tended to be lower in both CSF and serum of the seizure patients. CSF KYNA and serum 3-hydroxykynurenine concentrations were not affected in seizure patients, whereas serum levels of KYNA were reduced. 3-Hydroxykynurenine was not detected in the CSF of either control or seizure patients. The results do not support a role for a generalized reduction in KYNA concentrations or an increased ratio of QUIN:KYNA, or increases in CSF L-kynurenine in initiation and maintenance of intractable CPS humans.

AB In the present study the requirements for in vitro infection of antigen-specific CD8(+) cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) with human immunodeficiency virus -1 (HIV-1) were investigated. CD3(+)CD8(+)CD4(-) HIV-1 nef-specific CTL become infected with HIV-1 after short-term co-culture with HLA-matched HIV-1-infected CD20(+) B lymphoblastoid cells (B-LCL) which are specifically killed. Similar results were observed with an allospecific CD8(+) CTL population. In addition, co-culture experiments showed that once infected with HIV-1, these CD8(+) CTL could spread the infection further to uninfected CD4(+) lymphocytes. In contrast, CD8(+) CTL did not become infected with HIV-1 when co-cultured with HLA-mismatched HIV-1-infected B-LCL which are not killed.
These observations in vitro could have relevance in peripheral lymphoid organs contributing to the progressive decrease of HIV-specific CD8(+) CTL activity that is associated with the progression to AIDS.

AB We investigated the mechanism leading to an IgG autoantibody response in two transgenic mouse lines expressing the glycoprotein of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV-G). Previous experiments have shown that these animals do not mount a transgene-specific IgG response upon stimulation with purified VSV-G or infection with recombinant vaccinia virus expressing VSV-G. However, infection of VSV-G transgenic animals with wild-type vesicular stomatitis virus, serotype Indiana, readily induced VSV-G-specific, neutralizing IgG autoantibodies. We have tested whether this labile state of tolerance reflected differential availability of VSV-G-specific T help. For this, we immunized transgenic mice with the self-antigen VSV-G covalently coupled to sperm-whale myoglobulin (VSV-G-SWM), to provide new T helper epitopes that are linked to the B cell epitope; co-injected uncoupled VSV-G and SWM served as control. High titers of VSV-G specific IgG autoantibodies were detected in serum of mice immunized with VSV-G-SWM but not after co-injection of uncoupled VSV-G and SWM. Transgenic animals depleted of CD4(+) T cells prior to injection of VSV-G-SWM failed to mount an IgG response. Priming of transgenic mice with the foreign carrier did not accelerate the IgG autoantibody response to VSV-G-SWM, suggesting that B cells were limiting the rate of the response. Thus, self-reactive B cells could be triggered to produce IgG, if they received linked T help specific for a foreign carrier determinant provided either by a classical carrier determinant or a virus.

AB In the central nervous system (CNS), nerve regeneration after traumatic injury fails. The formation of a dense fibrous scar is thought to restrict in part the growth of axonal projections, providing one of the many reasons that complete lesions of neural pathways in the adult mammalian CNS are rarely followed by significant functional recovery. In order to determine which mechanisms mediate scar formation in the CNS and to investigate whether they can be modulated in vivo, we have attempted to define the potential role of trophic factors. Our previous studies have shown the focal elevation of transforming growth factor beta1 (TGFbeta1) expression in lesioned CNS tissue. In the studies described here, we demonstrate that TGFbeta1 participates in the scarring response in the rat brain. First, the elevated protein levels of TGFbeta1 are localized to specific populations of injury-responsive cells in the traumatized CNS. Furthermore, the injection of TGFbeta1 into the brains of injured rats causes a dramatic increase in the scarring response. Conversely, when neutralizing TGFbeta1 antibodies are administered, the deposition of fibrous scar tissue and the formation of a limiting glial membrane that borders the lesion is significantly attenuated, thus establishing a role for the endogenous growth factor in regulation of the non-glial component of the scar. In implicating TGFbeta1 in the scarring response in the CNS, the potential use for TGFbeta1 antagonists as inhibitors of scar formation in the injured mammalian CNS is self-evident.

AB Reliable and valid biomarkers of aging can provide valuable tools for examining the effectiveness of interventions that may influence the rate of aging processes. However, a standardized method for identifying biomarkers of aging has yet to be developed. The current analysis focused on hematology and blood chemistry variables obtained from a 5-year longitudinal study of male rhesus monkeys (N = 29) on a diet restriction regime known to retard aging processes and extend lifespan in laboratory rodents (70% of the diet intake of controls). For the current analysis, the major screening criteria for identifying candidate biomarkers of aging were cross-sectional and longitudinal correlation with chronological age (CA) and stability of individual differences. Six potential variables from the battery of blood chemistry tests were identified: 1) serum glutamic oxalacetic transaminase; 2) alkaline phosphatase; 3) total protein; 4) globulin; 5) blood urea nitrogen to creatinine ratio; and 6) phosphates. When submitted to principle component analysis, these variables loaded onto a single component that accounted for over 50% of the total variance to indicate marked covariance among them. By applying the factor score coefficients from the first principle component, an equation was derived for estimating a biological age score (BAS) for each individual monkey. A comparison of BAS between control and diet-restricted monkeys revealed no statistically significant difference at present; however, the slope of the regression of BAS onto CA appeared steeper for the control group compared to the experimental group. Thus, while demonstration of the validity of the candidate biomarkers awaits further evidence, a strategy by which additional biomarkers of aging can be identified is proposed as an improvement over past approaches.

AB Previously, we reported that uptake of calcium into isolated duodenal cells and duodenal brush border membrane vesicles decreased in senescence. Decreases in duodenal 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2D3] receptor number and 9k vitamin D-dependent calcium binding protein (CaBP) were also observed in aged rats. In this study, we examined the steady state mRNA levels of duodenal 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor and CaBP in both adult (6-month-old) and old (24-month-old) rats. We identified one major band of 4.4 kb for 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor mRNA. The size of the transcript was not affected by age. The content of 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptor mRNA (normalized with poly(A)+RNA) decreased 23% in the aged rat as compared to the adult rat. The expression of CaBP was also examined. A single band of 0.6 kb was observed for CaBP mRNA. The size of CaBP mRNA was not altered with age. However, the abundance of CaBP mRNA (normalized with poly(A)+RNA) was reduced 20% in the senescent rat. Thus, the results in the present study were consistent with our previous findings that the number of 1,25-(OH)2D3 receptors and the level of CaBP declined in the aged rat. However, the precise mechanism leading to the age-related deficit in mRNA expression remains to be elucidated.

AB DNA and mRNA amplification by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), immunohistochemical, and histopathology were performed in the eyes and brains from C57BL/6 mice infected with an avirulent strain of Toxoplasma gondii (ME49). Focal ocular inflammation and retinal pigment epithelial involvement were commonly observed after 15 days of infection. Four weeks after infection a stable number of cysts was observed in the brain but rarely in the eye, and they did not elicit an inflammatory response. In most of the ocular lesions the presence of the parasite could not be demonstrated even with the PCR technique. B1 DNA fragments of T. gondii were detected in only 4 of 11 eyes tested by PCR and Southern blot hybridization. Treatment of mice with mAbs against T cells (CD4 plus CD8) or cytokines (IFN-gamma or TNF-alpha) resulted in a marked increase of ocular lesions, more often associated with the presence of the parasite and the severity of inflammatory response. This model and the techniques utilized here can improve our understanding of the respective roles of parasite proliferation and immune mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of acquired ocular totoplasmosis.

AB We used colony probe hybridization and polymerase chain reaction/DNA sequence analysis to determine the mutations in similar to 2,400 4-aminobiphenyl (4-AB) +S9-induced revertants of the -1 frameshift allele hisD3052 and of the base-substitution allele hisG46 of Salmonella typhimurium. Most of the mutations occurred at sites containing guanine, which is the primary base at which 4-AB forms DNA adducts. A hotspot mutation involving the deletion of a CG or GC within the sequence CGCGCGCG accounted for 100 and 99.9%, respectively, of the reversion events at the hisD3052 allele in the pKM101 plasmid-minus strains TA1978 (uvr(+)) and TA1538 (Delta uvrB). In strain TA98 (Delta uvrB, pKM101), which contained the SOS DNA repair system provided by the pKM101 plasmid, similar to 85% of the revertants also contained the hotspot deletion; the remaining similar to 15 % contained one of two types pes of mutations: (1) complex frameshifts that can be described as a -2 or +1 frameshift and an associated base substitution and (2) deletions of the CC or GG sequences that flank the hotspot site (CCGCGCGCGG). We propose a misincorporation/slippage model to account for these mutations in which (1) pKM101-mediated misincorporation and translesion synthesis occurs across a 4-AB-adducted guanine; (2) the instability of such a mispairing and/or the presence of the adduct leads to strand slippage in a run of repeated bases adjacent to the adducted guanine; and (3) continued DNA synthesis from the slipped intermediate produces a frameshift associated with a base substitution. This model readily accounts for the deletion of the CC or GG sequences flanking the hotspot site, indicating that these mutations are, in fact, complex mutations in disguise (i.e., cryptic complex frameshifts). The inferred base-substitution specificity associated with the complex frameshifts at the hisD3052 allele (primarily G.C --> T.A transversions) is consistent with the finding that 4-AB induced primarily G.C --> T.A transversions at the hisG4G base-substitution allele. The model also provides a framework for understanding the different relative mutagenic potencies of 4-AB at the two alleles in the various DNA repair backgrounds of Salmonella.

AB The raf proto-oncogenes encode cytoplasmic protein serine/threonine kinases, which play a critical role in cell growth and development. One of these, A-raf-1 (human gene symbol, ARAF1), which is predominantly expressed in mouse urogenital tissues, has been mapped to an evolutionarily conserved linkage group composed of ARAF1, SYN1, TIMP, and properdin located at human chromosome Xp11.2. We have isolated human genomic DNA clones containing the expressed gene (ARAF1) on the X chromosome and a pseudogene (ARAF2) on chromosome 7p12-q11.21. Analysis of the nucleotide sequence from the ARAF1 genomic clones demonstrated that it consists of 16 exons encoded by minimally 10,776 nucleotides. The major transcriptional start site (+1) was determined by RNase protection and primer extension assays. Promoter activity was confirmed by functional assays using DNA fragments fused to a CAT reporter gene. The ARAF1 minimal promoter, located between nucleotides -59 and +93, has a low G + C content and lacks consensus TATA and Inr sequences but shows sequence similarity at position -1 to the E box that is known to interact with USF and TFII-I transcription factors.

TI MENTAL-HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE-ABUSE COVERAGE UNDER HEALTH REFORM

DT Article
ID SERVICES
AB President Clinton's health care reform proposal articulates a complete vision for the mental health and substance abuse care system that includes a place for those traditionally served by both the public and the private sectors. Mental health and substance abuse services are to be fully integrated into health alliances under the president's proposal. If this is to occur, we must come to grips with both the history and the insurance-related problems of financing mental health/substance abuse' care: (1) the ability of health plans to manage die benefit so as to alter patterns of use; (2) a payment system for health plans that addresses biased selection; and (3) preservation of the existing public investment while accommodating in a fair manner differences in funding across the fifty states.

AB Fifty-four billion dollars was spent on alcohol/drug abuse and mental health treatment in 1990. These expenditures were concentrated in the area of inpatient psychiatric care and on persons with severe mental health and substance abuse problems. The data on expenditure patters for mental health and substance abuse care suggest that successful health care reform in this area must implement mechanisms for controlling inpatient utilization and managing the care of persons with the most severe disorders.

AB Community-based programs are being widely adopted in the struggle to prevent chronic disease. Program evaluation of community-based programs involves a particular set of problems stemming from the variety of activities being undertaken simultaneously, the multiple intermediate goals of the programs and the rapidity with which the programs evolve. An analysis of the experience of four large community-based cardiovascular disease research and demonstration studies (Stanford Five-City Project, Minnesota Heart Health Program, Pawtucket Heart Health Program and the German Cardiovascular Prevention Project) provides valuable models, methodologies and strategies for planning and conducting evaluations of public health programs or community studies. By comparing and combining their experiences, the four programs have identified eight categories of evaluation for community studies, including formative evaluation, quality assurance, assessment of delivered dose, assessment of received dose, component program impact, intermediate outcomes, community impact and cost analysis. This paper presents information on the strategies by which each of the four programs addressed these evaluation categories.

AB Alcoholic hepatitis is characterized by hepatocyte necrosis associated with infiltration of the liver parenchyma by neutrophils. The mechanisms responsible for recruiting neutrophils to the liver are unknown. We report high circulating levels and tissue expression of the endothelial adhesion molecule E-selectin in alcoholic hepatitis. Because expression of E-selectin is involved in neutrophil transmigration into inflamed tissue, it may play a crucial role in the recruitment of neutrophils to the liver in alcoholic hepatitis. By contrast, we detected high levels of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, the endothelial counter-receptor for the lymphocyte adhesion molecule very late antigen-4, in alcoholic cirrhosis, which is associated with a predominantly mononuclear cell infiltrate. Both diseases were associated with high levels of circulating intercellular adhesion molecule-1, which is released by activated lymphocytes, providing further evidence of immune activation in alcoholic liver disease.

AB Cystic fibrosis (CF) results from mutations of the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene and subsequent defective regulation of cAMP-stimulated chloride (CI-) permeability across the apical membrane of epithelial cells. In vitro transfer of normal CFTR cDNA corrects this defect, and studies in experimental animals have shown successful gene transfer to airway epithelium in vivo using a recombinant adenoviral vector containing the human CFTR cDNA (AdCFTR), supporting the feasibility of in vivo AdCFTR-mediated gene therapy for the respiratory manifestations of CF. One step in applying this therapy to CF patients is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AdCFTR-mediated gene transfer in the actual target for human gene therapy, human airway epithelium. The present study demonstrates that AdCFTR restores cAMP-stimulated Cl- permeability in human CF bronchial epithelial cells. In addition, the study utilizes freshly isolated human airway epithelial cells from the nose and/or bronchi of normal individuals and/or individuals with CF to demonstrate that after in vitro AdCFTR-mediated gene transfer: (i) AdCFTR DNA does not replicate as a function of dose and time; (ii) CF epithelial cells express AdCFTR-mediated normal human CFTR mRNA; and (iii) CF epithelial cells, including terminally differentiated ciliated cells (the most common airway epithelial cell type), express the normal human CFTR protein. Together, these data support the use of AdCFTR in human gene therapy trials and suggest that biologic efficacy should be achievable in vivo.

AB Murine retroviral vectors can infect a wide variety of proliferating mammalian cell types (e.g. lymphocytes). Non-proliferating tissues (e.g. neurons) are not transduced by murine retroviral vectors. These findings suggest that this type of vector may be useful for the selective introduction of genes into growing tumors in the brain, since the tumor is essentially the only tissue that will integrate and express the vector genes.
We have investigated the possibility of direct in vivo gene transfer into growing brain tumors in animals. Rats with a malignant brain tumor were given an intratumoral stereotaxic injection of murine retroviral vector-producer cells (VPC) that were producing vectors containing the Herpes Simplex-thymidine kinase (HS-tk) gene or a control VPC line containing the beta-galactosidase gene. The animals were rested 5 days to allow time for the HS-tk retroviral vectors that were produced in situ to transduce the neighboring proliferating gliosarcoma. The animals were then treated with the anti-herpes drug ganciclovir (GCV). Tumors injected with the HS-tk VPC regressed completely with GCV therapy while the tumors injected with beta-galactosidase VPC developed large tumors. Staining for beta-galactosidase (+) cells in control animal brain revealed transduction of 10-50% of the tumor cells without evidence of transduction of the surrounding normal brain tissue. No significant toxicity was observed in toxicity studies in mice, rats and non-human primates.
Based upon these findings, we have proposed a human clinical trial to determine if the direct implantation of the G1TkSvNa VPC line into growing human brain tumors will induce regression with GCV therapy. The patient population primarily consists of individuals with recurrent malignant tumors who are currently considered ineligible for the approved NIH trial due to the size of the tumor. The RAC has previously approved an initial trial at NIH involving the stereotaxic injection of brain tumors. In this protocol, patients will undergo surgical debulking of the tumor followed by repeated treatments of HS-tk VPC into the tumor bed in an attempt to induce complete regression of the tumor with GCV therapy. These are patients who have failed standard therapy for their tumor and are expected to survive for several weeks to a few months.

DE CRITICAL THEORY; MEDICALIZATION OF DEATH; NATIVE AMERICANS

AB This article suggests that the violent deaths of American Indians are being medicalized. The biomedical classification of violent death (suicides, homicides, accidents) subverts the social elements of causality in favor of identifying individual culpability. It is here argued that the biomedical nosology known as the International Classification of Disease (ICD) has entered the everyday, commonsensical discourse of those who investigate these deaths (police, EMTs, medical examiners). After presenting a theoretical framework I offer four ethnographic vignettes to illustrate how death has been medicalized among the Tohono O'odham Indians of southern Arizona. These vignettes, though not statistically significant, reveal how cause is inscribed on the bodies of the deceased. In other words, the classification of violent death reifies the individual body at the expense of the social body. Five recommendations for further research and consideration are then offered.

AB Raised blood pressures in the elderly and the increased prevalence of hypertension in this population are not benign occurrences and should not be viewed as a normal or inevitable consequence of aging. In fact, the relation of systolic and diastolic blood pressures to cardiovascular events is generally more pronounced in people aged 65 years and older when compared with those aged 35 to 64. The relative risk of cardiovascular disease is greater among the elderly at every level of blood pressure. Furthermore, the absolute likelihood that an older individual will have a cardiovascular event is substantially greater than for someone younger, reflecting the increased prevalence of other cardiovascular disease risk factors in this age group. Thus, equivalent blood pressure reduction is likely to produce a greater benefit in the elderly than in younger patients at every level of blood pressure. This report, an update of the 1985 Working Group Report on Hypertension in the Elderly, has two aims: to guide clinicians in their care of elderly patients with hypertension and to assist health care professionals participating in high blood pressure control programs that serve the elderly. The role of lifestyle modifications-weight loss, dietary sodium restriction, alcohol reduction, and exercise-as definitive or adjunctive therapy to drug treatment is discussed. In addition, the report reviews the relative advantages and disadvantages of the specific classes of antihypertensive medications.

AB Numerical calculations simulated the response of cardiac muscle to stimulation by electrical current. The bidomain model with unequal anisotropy ratios represented the tissue, and parallel leak and active sodium channels represented the membrane conductance. The speed of the wavefront was faster in the direction parallel to the myocardial fibers than in the direction perpendicular to them. However, for cathodal stimulation well above threshold, the wavefront originated farther from the cathode in the direction perpendicular to the myocardial fibers than in the direction parallel to them, consistent with observations of a dog-bone-shaped virtual cathode made by Wikswo et al., Circ. Res. 68:513-530, 1991. The model showed that the virtual cathode size and shape were dependent upon both membrane and tissue conductivities. Increasing the peak sodium conductance or reducing the transverse intracellular conductivity accentuated the dog-bone shape, while the opposite change caused the virtual cathode to become more elliptical, with the major axis of the ellipse transverse to the fiber direction. A cathodal stimulus created regions of hyperpolarization that slowed conduction of the wavefront propagating parallel to the fibers. An anodal stimulus evoked a wavefront with a complex shape; activation originated from two depolarized regions 1 to 2 mm from the stimulus site along the fiber direction. The threshold current strength (0.5 ms duration pulse) for a cathodal stimulus was 0.048 mA, and for an anodal stimulus was 0.67 mA. When the model was modified to simulate the effect of electropermeabilization, which may be present when the transmembrane potential reaches very large values near the stimulating electrode, our qualitative conclusions remained unchanged. These three-dimensional calculations using an active membrane model are consistent with the results obtained previously using two-dimensional linear models and go further to provide an explanation for anodal excitation. Most importantly, by including the third dimension and a nonlinear membrane, this model provides an important physiologically realistic link between the data recorded in vivo from the canine heart and the theoretical concept that the anisotropic bidomain nature of cardiac tissue can affect cardiac activation and propagation.

Meiotic recombination in a region spanning approximately 250 kilobases (kb) at the 3' end of the TCRB gene complex was investigated by extended family studies and by analysis of single sperm. Segregation patterns of polymorphic TCRB markers in families allowed the assignment of TCRB alleles to parental haplotypes and detection of recombinants among the offspring. Among the 178 informative paternal meioses, four (approximately 2%) were recombinant, whereas no recombinants were found in the 199 maternal meioses. In addition, segregation of two allelic markers was examined in a total of 1101 individual sperm from two heterozygous donors to detect exchange events in this region. The results revealed a similar rate of recombination, approximately 1.3%, which, along with the family data, suggests that at, least in males, meiotic recombination in this 250 kb region may be six times higher than the ''average'' rate of 1% per 10(6) bases that has been estimated for the human genome.

DT Article
ID RETRIEVAL PERFORMANCE; RELEVANCE FEEDBACK; INFORMATION
AB We consider two kinds of queries that may be applied to a database. The first is a query written by a searcher to express an information need. The second is a request for documents most similar to a document already judged relevant by the searcher. We examine the effectiveness of these two procedures and show that in important cases the latter query type is more effective than the former. This provides a new view of the cluster hypothesis and a justification for document neighboring procedures (precomputation of closely related documents). If all the documents in a database have readily available precomputed nearest neighbors, a new search algorithm, which we call parallel neighborhood searching, is conveniently used. We show that this feedback-based method provides significant improvement in recall over traditional linear searching methods, and even appears superior to traditional feedback methods in overall performance.

AB The fates of inhaled nickel oxide (NiO, green oxide calcined at 1200 degrees C) and nickel subsulfide (Ni3S2), two occupationally relevant nickel compounds, have been studied in male F344/N rats. Croups of rats underwent pernasal exposure to 9.9 mg NiO/m(3) or to 5.7 mg Ni3S2/m(3) for 70 and 120 min, respectively. The activity median aerodynamic diameters (geomeiric standard deviation) of the NiO and Ni3S2 aerosols were 1.3 mu m (2.0) and 1.3 mu m (1.5), respectively. End points evaluated included total and regional respiratory tract deposition oi the aerosols, lung clearance of deposited material, distribution of solubilized material to extrarespiratory tract tissue, and pathways of Ni excretion from the body. The fractions oi the inhaled NiO and Ni3S2 aerosols that deposited in the respiratory tract were 0.11 and 0.13, respectively. The fractions of the inhaled aerosol that deposited in the lungs were 0.05 for both aerosols. Inhaled NiO cleared slowly from the lungs, with a half-life of approximately 120 days. Following NiO exposures, Ni was not distributed to the extrarespiratory tract tissue, and the material was excreted only in the feces during the first few days after the exposure. Inhaled Ni3S2 cleared rapidly from the lungs, with a clearance half-time of approximately 4 days. Nickel was detected in several extrarespiratory tract tissues of Ni3S2-exposed rats within a few hours after the end of the exposure, and was detected in lung and kidneys up to 16 days postexposure. Results of this study indicate that two occupationally relevant Ni compounds formed during the refining of Ni ore have significantly different lung retention and tissue distribution patterns. As expected, the high-temperature NiO behaves as a relatively insoluble particle and is retained in lung, while Ni3S2 behaves as a relatively soluble particle, with fairly rapid dissolution in lung and distribution of Ni to extrarespiratory tract tissues.

AB Serum levels of retinol, beta-carotene, ascorbic acid, alpha-tocopherol, selenium, ferritin, copper, and zinc were assayed for approximately 600 adults aged 35 to 64 with pre-cancerous gastric lesions in an area of China with one of the world's highest rates of stomach cancer. Previous studies have shown that the cancers generally are preceded by chronic atropic gastritis (CAG), intestinal metaplasia (IM) and dysplasia. Concentrations of beta-carotene and ascorbic acid were significantly lower among individuals with IM than among those whose most severe lesion was superficial gastritis or CAG. The associations with IM for these nutrients were strong and independent. In combination, the odds of CAG progressing to IM were only 1/6 as high among those with upper tertile levels of beta-carotene and ascorbic acid as among those with lower tertile levels of both nutrients. The serum levels of beta-carotene and ascorbic acid were similar for individuals having IM with or without accompanying dysplasia. Risk of IM was also somewhat increased among those with low serum ferritin, but no significant effects were observed in multivariate analyses for the other nutrients assayed. The findings point to a major influence of specific nutrient deficits in the mechanisms of gastric carcinogenesis in this high-risk area. (C) 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.*

AB Because binge eating in obese individuals has been postulated to be a reaction to dietary restriction, we examined the recorded food intake of 17 obese women with and 16 obese women without binge eating disorder (BED) during 1-week periods before and 3 months after a very low calorie diet program in order to determine the effects of dietary restriction on binge eating frequency and severity. Before weight loss, rather than reporting severe caloric restriction, women with BED reported greater average energy intake than nonbinge eaters on both a total (2707 vs. 1869 kcal/day, p < .01) and weight-adjusted (25.1 vs. 18.1 kcal/kg, p < .01) basis, with both higher intake on nonbinge days and an increased frequency of binge days. After weight loss, there was no significant difference in energy intake, on either a total or weight-adjusted basis, between subjects with and without BED. Although average daily energy intake fell for both groups after weight loss, only subjects with BED reported significantly decreased energy intake when adjusted for change in body weight. This resulted from decreased intake on nonbinge days and a decreased frequency of binge days. Before weight loss, subjects with BED reported an average energy intake equivalent to 94% of their predicted energy expenditure. Whereas subjects without BED reported intake only 64% of predicted (p = .002). After weight loss, there was no significant difference between subjects with and without BED in the percentage of predicted energy expenditure reported as intake (64% vs. 58%). Restraint was similar in both groups before weight loss, but those with BED reported greater hunger and disinhibition. After weight loss treatment, restraint increased significantly, whereas disinhibition and hunger remained elevated in subjects with BED. Disinhibition, rather than restraint, appears to be a major contributor to the disordered eating of these individuals. Unlike normal-weight women with bulimia nervosa dietary restriction does not appear to worsen symptoms of binge

AB AAPH (2,2'-azobis-(2-amidinopropane dihydrochloride)) is a water-soluble, heat-labire azo compound which undergoes thermal decomposition to produce carbon-centred free radicals. These carbon-centred radicals might be directly cytotoxic or may react with oxygen to produce potentially cytotoxic alkoxyl and peroxyl radicals. The rate of free radical production as a result of AAPK thermal decomposition increases with increasing temperature. We have evaluated the efficacy of AAPH as a heat sensitizer for Chinese hamster V79 cells by the clonogenic assay. AAPH (50 mM) was not cytotoxic to V79 cells at 37 degrees C for exposures up to 3 h. In contrast, AAPH (50 mM) was found to markedly sensitize cells exposed to 42, 43 and 45 degrees C. For a 75 min exposure to 42 degrees C alone? cell survival was reduced to 9x10(-1) however, a 75 min exposure at 42 degrees C+AAPH resulted in survival of 5.5x10(-4). For 43 and 45.5 degrees C heating, cell survival was potentiated by AAPH at the 1% survival level by 4.1 and 1.4-fold, respectively. AAPH was also found to sensitize both hypoxic cells and thermotolerant cells. These findings would encourage in vivo evaluation of AAPH (or analogues) as a temperature-dependent heat sensitizer. AAPH represents a new class of heat sensitizers which may have use in unravelling the mechanism(s) of heat killing and may have utility in local hyperthermia treatment.

AB Previous studies on the effects of weight change on psychological well-being in clinical samples have yielded inconsistent results. We examined the relationship between weight change and psychological wellbeing as measured by the General Well-Being (GWB) scale in 3747 women aged 50 years or less at baseline using data from the NHANES I Epidemiologic Follow-up Study. Multiple logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios while adjusting for potential confounders. Recent weight gain was associated with poorer wellbeing in both overweight and non-overweight women and recent weight loss with poorer well-being in non-overweight women. These findings were unchanged by controlling for age, race, marital status, employment status, education, physical activity level, number of medical conditions, alcohol use and extroversion. Thus, maintenance of stable weight may contribute to psychological well-being in women.

AB We have examined the expression of the ets family of transcription factors in different types of hematopoietic cells. Our results demonstrate that several members of the ets gene family are expressed differentially in hematopoietic cells. During phorbol ester induced differentiation of HL60 cells, ETS2, PEA3, as well as GABPalpha and GABPbeta mRNAs are coordinately induced. During the activation of T-cells, ETS2 proteins are induced; however, the expression of the ETS1 and ERGB gene products are reduced. These results demonstrate that the regulation of ets family of genes is complex and depends on cell type. This observation leads to the conclusion that the regulation of ets target genes, will be dependent, in part, upon the type of ets genes expressed in each particular cell type.

AB The metastatic potential of cancer cells has been associated to their ability to elaborate and secrete basement membrane degradative enzymes. In this process a major role appears to be played by a protease known as gelatinase A (72 kDa type IV collagenase, MMP-2). In an effort to assess the significance of these findings to breast cancer progression, we have evaluated the gelatinase A/MMP-2 serum levels in a cohort of 80 breast cancer patients, 27 subjects affected by benign breast disease and 27 healthy controls. Although differences between the three groups were observed, with the highest values monitored in benign breast disease, they were not statistically significant. On the contrary, within the breast cancer cohort, the patients presenting clinical evidence of distant metastases (M+, n=40) had statistically elevated enzyme serum levels (p<0.03) compared to those without nodal involvement and distant metastases (N-M-, n=20). The statistical significance was still evident when considering the overall M- cohort (including N+ and N- patients, n=40) compared to the M+. Although indicating that, in general, gelatinase A/MMP-2 is not a useful serum marker for breast cancer screening and diagnosis, the findings point toward its involvement in the breast cancer metastatic process and suggest a possible value in monitoring the outcome of the disease.

In this retrospective pilot study we have, been able to evaluate the response to therapy of 21 previously untreated patients. Seven of these patients (33%) had tumors which contained a p53 mutation at presentation. Five of the 7 patients with mutant p53 relapsed and 4 died of progressive disease whereas none of the patients with wild type p53 relapsed and none died of progressive disease. These preliminary results strongly suggest that the presence of a mutated p53 gene is an unfavorable prognostic factor. p53 mutations could be used as a parameter in risk-adapted therapy protocols, or could even provide an appropiate target for therapy.

AB Two doses of oltipraz (300, 600 mg/kg diet) and alpha-difluoromethylornithine DFMO; 1600, 3200 mg/kg diet), alone and in combinations with N-(4-hydroxyphenyl) retinamide (4-HPR; 98, 196 mg/kg diet) and/or beta-carotene (3, 1.5 mg; sc, 2x/week), were investigated for prevention of hamster respiratory carcinogenesis. After 25 weeks, only high dose oltipraz (-100%) inhibited the incidence of DEN-induced (17.8 mg/kg BW, sc, 2x/week, 20 weeks) bronchial carcinomas when given alone. Low dose oltipraz (-34%, n.s.) synergistically decreased carcinoma incidence in combinations with 4-HPR (-80%), beta-carotene (-90%) or both (-100%). Other effective combinations were low dose DFMO + beta-carotene (-64%) and high dose DFMO with 4-HPR (-56%), beta-carotene (-63%) or both (-67%).

AB The increasing availability of high-performance computers makes it possible to treat larger systems in shorter computing times. However, a more challenging aspect of the availability of larger and faster computers is the exploration of alternative algorithms. This is especially important in view of new computer architectures. In this work we describe a novel technique for feedback-scaling individual NOE distance restraints during molecular-dynamics-simulated annealing experiments.

TI EFFECTS OF INHIBITION OF O-6-ALKYLGUANINE-DNA ALKYLTRANSFERASE IN RATS

AB Many alkylating agents are potent carcinogens and there is considerable evidence that the formation of O6-alkylguanine in DNA can lead to mutations and the initiation of neoplastic growth. The repair of O6-methyl- or O6-ethylguanine in DNA is known to be brought about by the action of a protein termed 06-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase. In order to investigate the role of this activity in the carcinogenic action of methylnitrosourea and ethylnitrosourea, O6-benzylguanine, a potent inhibitor of the alkyltransferase, was used. Groups of 20 female F344 rats were treated with the nitrosourea (0.2 mmol) by gavage in 10 weekly doses and a parallel group was also treated with 4 mg of 06 -benzylguanine, 2 h prior to each dose of the nitrosourea. This dose of O6-benzylguanine was sufficient to reduce the alkyltransferase activity to zero in the liver for at least 8 h but activity had returned to about 60% of normal within 24 h. Animals were maintained until they became moribund, when they were killed, or until death related to tumors. The median week of death in the animals receiving methylnitrosourea was reduced from 60 wk to 52 wk by co-treatment with O6-benzylguanine. There was a smaller reduction from 55 to 50 wk in the rats receiving ethylnitrosourea. The treatment with O6-benzylguanine caused no significant change in the incidence of the principal tumors induced by the alkylnitrosoureas and there were no liver tumors produced by the combined treatments. These results show that the level of inactivation of alkyltransferase produced by this dose of O6-benzylguanine was not sufficient to greatly alter the potent carcinogenic effect of these doses of alkylnitrosoureas in this system.

AB We studied human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection incidence over time in a 16-center cohort of hemophiliacs in the United States and Europe and estimated the most likely date of seroconversion for all sero-positive subjects. Five U.S. centers enrolled subjects independent of HIV-1 status, whereas 11 centers preferentially included seropositive subjects. We obtained unbiased estimates of HIV-1 infection incidence rates from the five centers and estimated dates of seroconversion from the distribution seen among seropositives from all centers. In the five-center cohort, infection incidence began in 1978, peaked in October 1982 at 22 infections per 100 person-years at risk, and declined to 4 per 100 person-years by July 1984. Few infections occurred after 1987, and by that time, 50% of the cohort had become infected. Median seroconversion dates for subgroups of all seropositives ranged from July 1980 to December 1983, depending on the dose and type of factor concentrate. Median dates in Europe ranged from September 1981 to March 1983 and reflected the use of products manufactured from American plasma. Infection incidence apparently peaked about the same time that public health interventions were introduced to reduce transmission. These interventions, including heat treatment of factor concentrates and deferral of high-risk donors, have prevented HIV-1 infection from becoming endemic among younger birth cohorts of persons with hemophilia.

AB The objective of this study was to determine if clinical signs, symptoms, laboratory variables, and use of therapeutic or prophylactic agents have prognostic associations with survival after diagnosis of clinical AIDS. A total of 2,168 homosexual men, seropositive for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) participated in a longitudinal cohort study of the greater metropolitan areas of Baltimore, Maryland, Washington, D.C., Chicago, Illinois, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Los Angeles, California, U.S.A.-the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (MACS). Variables within 6 months prior to AIDS diagnosis included age, CD4(+) lymphocyte counts, hemoglobin, and self-reported thrush, fever, anti-retroviral therapy (ART) beginning prior to AIDS onset, and ART beginning after AIDS (as a time-dependent covariate) were analyzed as mutually exclusive categories, as was prophylaxis for Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP). Univariate and multivariate survival models of time from AIDS to death were fit. In univariate analysis, younger age, higher counts of CD4(+) lymphocytes, hemoglobin, and absence of thrush or fever prior to AIDS onset were associated with longer survival after AIDS. Those who began ART within 3 months after AIDS onset had longer median survival (1.75 years), from 3 months after AIDS, when compared with those who began ART prior to AIDS (1.18 years). This comparison is not influenced by the bias that those who survive longer have a greater likelihood to subsequently receive ART, Prophylaxis for PCP beginning after AIDS onset was also associated with longer post-AIDS survival when compared with beginning prophylaxis prior to AIDS or never using prophylaxis. In multivariate analysis, age <37 years at AIDS onset, higher hemoglobin level, and higher CD4(+) lymphocyte count remained prognostically beneficial for survival after AIDS (relative hazards 0.78, 0.91 per g/dL and 0.80 per 100 cells x 10(6)/L, respectively). When PCP prophylaxis and ART were started only after AIDS onset (considered as time-dependent covariates, they reduced the hazard of death by 40% and 50%, respectively. The hazard of death after AIDS was 26% lower in those using ART prior to AIDS than in those never using ART (p = 0.095). Clinical variables such as younger age, higher hemoglobin level, and higher CD4(+) count are prognostically beneficial for survival after AIDS. Pre-AIDS ART and pneumocystis prophylaxis are presently the standard of care in treating those with HIV-1 infection and have been shown to delay the onset of AIDS. Survival after AIDS onset was longer for men who received pre-AIDS ART compared with those who never received ART, but it was shorter in the former group than in those initiating ART after AIDS, This finding suggests a transient beneficial effect from ART that is not completely attenuated at AIDS in the pre-AIDS ART recipient.

AB Between November 1990 and January 1991, status of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection was assessed for 522 men and 484 women attending the Comprehensive Health Centre in Kingston, Jamaica, for a new sexually transmitted disease (STD) complaint. Prevalence of HIV type 1 (HIV-1) infection was 3.1% (31 of 1,006), a tenfold rise in seroprevalence in 4.5 years. Nineteen of 517 (3.7%) heterosexual men, 3 of 5 (60%) homosexual/bisexual men, and 9 of 484 (1.9%) women were infected with HIV. In heterosexual men, factors associated with HIV infection after age adjustment included present complaint of genital ulcer [odds ratio (OR) 7.3; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.4-72], past history of genital ulcer (OR, 4.3; CI, 1.4-12), positive MHATP syphilis serology (OR, 3.4; CI, 1.1-10), sex with a prostitute in the past month (OR, 3.8; CI, 1.1-11). Three or more sex partners in the month prior to complaint (OR, 3.6; CI, 1.0-12), and bruising during sex (OR, 4.0; CI, 1.4-13). On multiple logistic regression analysis, independent associations with HIV infection were shown for bruising during sex (OR, 3.0; CI, 1.1-8.3), positive MHATP syphilis serology (OR, 3.2; CI, 1.1-9.5), and history of genital ulcer (OR, 2.9; Ct, 1.0 8.0). Among women, history of ''bad blood'' (syphilis) (OR, 6.6; CI, 1.4-30), self-perception of high risk for acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) (OR, 8.6; CI, 0.9-108), positive gonorrhea culture (OR 12; CI 2.1-72), HTLV-1 seropositivity (OR, 5.7; CI, 0.9-29), history of stillbirth (OR, 7.6; CI, 1.3-43), and current abnormality of the cervix (OR, infinity; CI, 1.7-infinity) were associated with HIV infection. Conditions giving rise to a disruption of the genital epithelium in men such as bruising (trauma) with sex and genital ulcers may facilitate HIV transmission from women to men while inflammation of the cervix (e.g., gonorrhea) may facilitate male-to-female HIV transmission.

AB We have cloned, expressed, and purified the RecA analog from the thermophilic eubacterium Thermus aquaticus YT-1. Analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence indicates that the T. aquaticas RecA is structurally similar to the Escherichia coli RecA and suggests that RecA-like function has been conserved in thermophilic organisms. Preliminary biochemical analysis indicates that the protein has an ATP-dependent single-stranded DNA binding activity and can pair and carry out strand exchange to form a heteroduplex DNA under reaction conditions previously described for E. coli RecA, but at 55 to 65 degrees C. Further characterization of a thermophilically derived RecA protein should yield important information concerning DNA-protein interactions at high temperatures. In addition, a thermostable RecA protein may have some general applicability in stabilizing DNA-protein interactions in reactions which occur at high temperatures by increasing the specificity (stringency) of annealing reactions.

The nucleotide sequence of this fragment revealed two open reading frames encoding 432- and 356-amino-acid-long proteins. We show here that they correspond to the dadA and dadX genes. The dadA gene can encode only the smaller of the two subunits of D-amino acid dehydrogenase. A computer search revealed the presence of a flavin adenine dinucleotide-binding motif in the N-terminal domain of the deduced DadA protein sequence. This is in agreement with biochemical data showing that the D-amino acid dehydrogenase contains flavin adenine dinucleotide in its active center. The predicted dadX gene product appeared to be 85% identical to a dadB-encoded catabolic alanine racemase of Salmonella typhimurium. The organization of the dadA and dadX genes confirmed our previous conclusion based on the genetic data (J. Wild, J. Hennig, M. Lobocka, W. Walczak, and T. Klopotowski, Mol. Gen. Genet. 198:315-322, 1985) that these genes form an operon. The main transcription start points of the dad operon were determined by primer extension. They are preceded by a putative sigma(70) promoter sequence and two cyclic AMP-cyclic AMP receptor protein (cAMP-CRP) binding sites, one of higher and one of lower affinity to CRP. We propose that the high-affinity site, centered 59.5 bp upstream of the main transcription start point, plays a role in cAMP-CRP-mediated activation of dad operon expression in the absence of glucose.

AB Escherichia coli K-12 strains and Shigella flexneri grown to stationary phase can sun ive several hours at pH 2 to 3, which is considerably lower than the acid limit for growth (about pH 4.5). A 1.3-kb fragment cloned from S. flexneri conferred acid resistance on acid-sensitive E. coli HB101; sequence data identified the fragment as a homolog of rpoS, the growth phase-dependent sigma factor sigma(38). The clone also conferred acid resistance on S. flexneri rpoS::Tn10 but not on Salmonella typhimurium. E. coli and S. flexneri strains containing wild-type rpoS maintained greater internal pH in the face of a low external pH than strains lacking functional rpoS, but the ability to sun ive at low pH did not require maintenance of a high transmembrane pH difference. Aerobic stationary-phase cultures of E. coli MC4100 and S. flexneri 3136, grown initially at an external pH range of 5 to 8, were 100% acid resistant (surviving 2 h at pH 2.5). Aerobic log-phase cultures grown at pH 5.0 were acid resistant; survival decreased 10- to 100-fold as the pH of growth th was increased to pH 8.0. Extended growth in log phase also decreased acid resistance substantially. Strains containing rpoS::Tn10 showed ed partial acid resistance when grown at pH 5 to stationary phase; log-phase cultures showed <0.01% acid resistance. When grown anaerobically at low pH, however, the rpoS::Tn10 strains were acid resistant. E. coli MC4100 also showed resistance at alkaline pH outside the growth range (base resistance). Significant base resistance was observed up to pH 10.2. Base resistance was diminished by rpoS::Tn10 and by the presence of Na+. Base resistance was increased by an order of magnitude for stationary-phase cultures grown in moderate base (pH 8) compared with those grown in moderate acid (pH 5). Anaerobic growth partly restored base resistance in cultures grown at pH 5 but not in those grown at pH 8. Thus, both acid resistance and base resistance show dependence on growth pH and are regulated by rpoS under certain conditions. For acid resistance, and in part for base resistance, the rpoS requirement can be overcome by anaerobic growth in moderate acid.

AB P1 plasmid encodes a cis-acting centromere analog, parS, and two Par proteins that together stabilize plasmids by partitioning them to daughter bacteria. We infected immune bacteria with bacteriophage X into which parS had been inserted. The presence of P1 Par proteins in the infected cells,vas found to delay the appearance of cells cured of the nonreplicating, extrachromosomal lambda-parS DNA. This stabilization of lambda-parS, approximated in a computer simulation, demonstrates that active partition by the P1 par system does not require the act of plasmid replication and can be studied in its absence.

AB A method for estimating the locations of muscle origins and insertions from the measurement of surface landmarks was evaluated using two indirect accuracy tests and a three-dimensional computer graphics program. For each of four lower extremity anatomical segments, a least-squares technique was used to map the measured locations of three landmark targets to their anatomically based locations. The residual errors, obtained from the applications of the least squares, supplied the first indirect accuracy test. These residual errors were between 6 and 12 mm for the four anatomical segments when averaged over ten subjects. The second indirect accuracy test was conducted by comparing the predicted locations of end points on two adjacent segments forming a joint. Errors in aligning adjacent end points were between 12 and 29 mm for three anatomical joints when averaged over ten subjects. A three-dimensional computer graphics program was developed by the authors and demonstrated that the static testing techniques alone were insufficient to evaluate the quality of the muscle origin and insertion estimates. Any evaluation of muscle lengths, velocities and lines-of-action from surface landmarks should examine the estimates made from motion data, and should address both the ability of the model to fit the subjects as well as model's ability to represent the geometry of the musculoskeletal system.

AB We isolated and sequenced a cDNA encoding bovine bone sialoprotein (BSP) using a bovine cDNA library made from mRNA isolated from bone-derived cell cultures and ligated to a phage lambda gt11. One of the cDNA clones isolated from this library had a 1800 base pair long insert and was found to contain the entire protein-encoding region. The deduced protein sequence revealed a 310 amino acid protein containing a signal peptide sequence of 16 hydrophobic amino acids. The protein sequence shows remarkable conservation with previously published human and rat sequences (more than 80% similarity for both species). The potential functional domains of BSP, including three acid amino acid-rich sequences, tyrosine sulfation consensus repeats, and the RGD cell binding sequence, are all present in the bovine sequence. Northern analysis of RNA from different bovine tissues indicated the presence of BSP message in bone but not in other nonmineralized tissues, confirming that bone is the major site of BSP message production.

AB Recombinant human apolipoprotein E3 (apoE), purified from E. coli, inhibited the proliferation of several cell types, including endothelial cells and tumor cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. ApoE inhibited both de novo DNA synthesis and proliferation as assessed by an increase in cell number. Maximal inhibition of cell growth by apoE was achieved under conditions where proliferation was dependent on heparin-binding growth factors. Thus, at low serum concentrations (0-2.5%) basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) stimulated the proliferation of bovine aortic endothelial (BAE) cells severalfold. The bFGF-dependent proliferation was dramatically inhibited by apoE with an IC50 approximate to 50 nM. Under conditions where cell proliferation was mainly serum-dependent, apoE also suppressed growth but required higher concentrations to be effective (IC50 approximate to 500 nM). ApoE also inhibited growth of bovine corneal endothelial cells, human melanoma cells, and human breast carcinoma cells. The IC50 values obtained with these cells were generally 3-5 times higher than with BAE cells. Inhibition of cell proliferation by apoE was reversible and dependent on the time of apoE addition to the culture. In addition, apoE inhibited the chemotactic response of endothelial cells that were induced to migrate by a gradient of soluble bFGF. Inhibition of cell proliferation by apoE may be mediated both by competition for growth factor binding to proteoglycans and by an antiadhesive activity of apoE. The present results demonstrate that apoE is a potent inhibitor of proliferation of several cell types and suggest that apoE may be effective in modulating angiogenesis, tumor cell growth, and metastasis.

AB The breakdown of cellular homeostasis and progressive neuronal destruction in cerebral ischemia appears to be mediated by a complex network of causes that are intricately interrelated. We have investigated a physiological state existing normally in nature in which mammals appear to tolerate the ordinarily detrimental effects of ischemia with reduced oxygen availability and to resist activation of self-destructive processes, i.e., mammalian hibernation. Ground squirrels (Spermophilus tridecemlineatus) were chronically implanted with arterial and ve nous catheters and telemetry devices for electroencephalography, electrocardiography, and monitoring of body temperature. The animals were placed in an environmental chamber at an ambient temperature of 5 degrees C. Entrance into hibernation was characterized by a drop in heart rate followed by a gradual decline in body temperature and an isoelectric electroencephalogram. Cold-adapted active animals that were not hibernating served as controls. Cerebral blood flow (CBF) was measured in both groups with the autoradiographic [C-14]iodoantipyrine method. Mean (+/- SD) mass-weighted CBF in the brain as a whole was 62 +/- 16 ml/100 g/min (n = 4) in the control group but was reduced to ischemic levels, 7 +/- 4 ml/100 g/min (n = 4), in the hibernating animals (p < 0.001). No neuropathological changes were found in similarly hibernating animals aroused from hibernation. Hibernation appears to be actively regulated, and hormonal factors may be involved. The identification and characterization of such factors and of the mechanisms used by hibernating species to increase ischemic tolerance and to blunt the destructive effects of ischemia may enable us to prevent or minimize the loss of homeostatic control during and after cerebral ischemia in other species.

AB We examined effects of acute unilateral enucleation on incorporation from blood of intravenously injected unsaturated [1-C-14]arachidonic acid ([C-14]AA) and [1-C-14]docosahexaenoic acid ([C-14]DHA), and of saturated [9,10-H-3]palmitic acid ([H-3]PA), into visual and nonvisual brain areas of awake adult Long-Evans hooded rats. Regional cerebral metabolic rate for glucose (rCMR(glc)) values also were assessed with 2-deoxy-D-[C-14]glucose ([C-14]DG). One day after unilateral enucleation, an awake rat was placed in a brightly lit visual stimulation box with black and white striped walls, and a radiolabeled fatty acid was infused for 5 min or [C-14]DG was injected as a bolus. [C-14]DG also was injected in a group of rats kept in the dark for 4 h. Fifteen minutes after starting an infusion of a radiolabeled fatty acid, or 45 min after injecting [C-14]DG, the rat was killed and the brain was prepared for quantitative autoradiography. Incorporation coefficients k* of fatty acids, or rCMR(glc) values, were calculated in homologous brain regions contralateral and ipsilateral to enucleation. As compared with ipsilateral regions, rCMR(glc), was reduced significantly (by as much as -39%) in contralateral visual areas, including the superior colliculus, lateral geniculate body, and layers I, IV, and V of the primary (striate) and secondary (association, extrastriate) visual cortices. Enucleation did not affect incorporation of [H-3]PA into contralateral visual regions, but reduced incorporation of [C-14]AA and of [C-14]DHA by -18.5 to -2.1%. Percent reductions were correlated with percent reductions in rCMR(glc) in most but not all regions. No effects were noted at any of nine nonvisual structures that were examined. These results indicate that enucleation acutely reduces neuronal activity in contralateral visual areas of the awake rat and that the reductions are coupled to reduced incorporation of unsaturated fatty acids into sn-2 regions of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol, and phosphatidylethanolamine. Reduced fatty acid incorporation likely reflects reduced activity of phospholipases A(2) and/or phospholipase C.

AB The numbers of monocytes and macrophages in the walls of cerebral blood vessels were counted on perfusion-fixed frozen brain sections (16 mu m) of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), stroke-prone SHR (SHR-SP), normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats, and young (16-week-old) and old (2-year-old) normotensive Sprague-Dawley rats (SD-16w and SD-2y, respectively) using monoclonal antibodies against rat macrophages (ED2). The staining was visualized with fluorescein-labeled second antibodies. The ED2-specific staining in brain sections was restricted to macrophages in a perivascular location. The number of perivascular cells per square millimeter of high-power field was significantly greater in SHR-SP (8.6 +/- 2.1; n = 4) and SHR (6.7 +/- 0.9; n = 6) than in normotensive WKY (4.0 +/- 0.5; n = 6; p < 0.01). The number of perivascular macrophages was also greater in SD-2y (7.5 +/- 2.7; n = 9) than in SD-16w (2.9 +/- 1.8; n = 8; p < 0.01). No ED2 staining was found in the resident microglia or in the endothelial cells, which were identified by double staining with rhodamine-labeled anti-factor VIII-related antigen antibodies. The results suggest that the stroke risk factors hypertension and advanced age are associated with increased subendothelial accumulation of monocytes and macrophages. This accumulation could increase the tendency for the endothelium to convert from an anticoaulant to a procoagulant surface in response to mediators released from these subendothelial cells.

TI A BROWNIAN DYNAMICS ALGORITHM FOR CALCULATING THE HYDRODYNAMIC FRICTION
AND THE ELECTROSTATIC CAPACITANCE OF AN ARBITRARILY-SHAPED OBJECT
SO JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL PHYSICS
LA English
DT Article
ID ELLIPSOIDS
AB An algorithm originally devised for calculating the diffusion-controlled reaction rate toward an arbitrarily shaped object is adapted to calculate the scalar translational hydrodynamic friction and the electrostatic capacitance of the object. In this algorithm Brownian particles are launched from a spherical surface enclosing the object. Each particle is propagated until it either hits the enclosed object or crosses the starting surface. In the latter case the particle is allowed to escape to infinity with an analytically known probability. If the particle does not escape to infinity, it is ;put-back on the starting surface with the correct distribution density and the process is repeated. The scalar friction or capacitance of the ''probed'' object is proportional to the fraction of particles that hit the object. This algorithm is illustrated on a dumbbell made of two equal-size spheres, a cube, and a phantom spherical shell having random distributed beads embedded in its surface.

AB Dopamine, acting via its specific receptor (DRD2) in the anterior pituitary, tonically inhibits pituitary prolactin secretion and lactotroph proliferation. In addition, dopamine agonist therapy for pituitary prolactinomas results in reduction of prolactin secretion and tumor regression. These observations lead to the speculation that functional dopamine uncoupling may release lactotrophs from the inhibitory effects of dopamine and contribute to the development of prolactin (PRL)secreting pituitary tumors. We hypothesized that such an uncoupling may occur by inactivating mutation(s) of the DRD2. To test our hypothesis, we examined 79 pituitary tumors, mostly prolactinomas and mixed GH/PRL-secreting, for mutations in the coding exons of the DRD2 gene. We used the polymerase chain reaction and analyzed the fragments for migration abnormalities on denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, complemented by direct DNA sequencing. No mutations were demonstrated, and all migration abnormalities detected by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis were due to polymorphisms within the DRD2 gene. In addition, allelic losses in the multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 region in 11q13 could not be demonstrated in all five informative prolactinomas. We conclude that mutations in the DRD2 gene do not occur in PRL or GH/PRL-secreting pituitary tumors and that allelic loss of 11q13 is uncommon in prolactinomas.

ID AUTOIMMUNE
AB Patients with premature ovarian failure (POF) have been reported to have an increased frequency of the major histocompatibily class (MHC) class II antigen HLA-DR3. Here we attempt to confirm this association. We performed MHC class II immunophenotyping of HLA-DR antigens 1-10 on 102 North American caucasians with confirmed POF and 102 control caucasian women. All patients had experienced amenorrhea before the age of 40 yr and had elevated serum gonadotropins on repeated study. We found no significant increase in HLA-DR3 frequency in patients with POF when compared to our control group (P = 0.52) or even when compared to a large reference population (n = 1927) that did not differ significantly from our control group (P = 0.47). Our patients did have an increased frequency of HLA DR4 compared to this large reference population (41% vs. 23%; P < 0.001), but we were unable to demostrate increased HLA DR4 frequency using our control group (31%; P = 0.14). In conclusion, despite a power of 99%, we were unable to confirm a significant increase in MHC class II HLA-DR3 frequency in patients with POF.

AB The mechanisms of tumorigenesis of adrenocortical neoplasms have not been elucidated as yet. However, loss of heterozygosity at chromosomal locus 17p has been consistently observed in adrenocortical cancer. p53 is a recessive tumor suppressor gene located on chromosome 17p. Mutations in the p53 gene play an important role in the tumorigenesis of diverse types of human neoplasms including breast and colon cancers. More than 90% of all mutations discovered in such tumors have been detected in 4 hot spot areas that lie between exons 5 and 8. In contrast to wild-type p53, mutant p53 accumulates intracellularly and can be easily detected by immunohistochemistry. We therefore investigated the frequency of p53 mutations in human adrenocortical neoplasms using molecular biology and immunohistochemistry techniques. Five patients with adrenocortical adenomas (5 female; ages 39-72 yr), 11 patients with adrenocortical carcinomas (8 female, 3 male; ages 15-50 yr), and two adrenocortical tumor cell lines were studied. After DNA extraction from frozen tumor tissue or paraffin-embedded material, exons 5 through 8 were amplified using the polymerase chain reaction and directly sequenced by the dideoxy termination method. Immunohistochemistry was performed on paraffin-embedded tumor specimens obtained during adrenalectomy using a monoclonal antibody reacting with both wild-type and mutant p53. Prevalence of mutations was adenomas, 0/5, carcinomas, 3/11, and adrenocortical cell lines, 2/2. Single point mutations were detected in 3 cases (exons 5, 6, and 7, respectively), and rearrangements of exon 7/8 and 8 were found in 2 cases. Immunohistochemistry detected strong nuclear and/or cytoplasmic p53 immunoreactivity in all adrenocortical carcinomas with point mutations of the p53 gene but not in adenomas and carcinomas with the wild-type sequence or with deletion/rearrangement of the p53 gene. We conclude that p53 plays a role in the tumorigenesis of adrenocortical carcinomas but is of less importance to benign adenomas.

AB Monoclonal polyreactive antibodies bind to a variety of self and foreign antigens. In contrast, monoclonal monoreactive antibodies bind to a single or restricted number of known antigens. The rate at which polyreactive antibodies are removed from the circulation compared to monoreactive antibodies has not been determined. In the present experiments, human monoclonal polyreactive and monoreactive antibodies of different isotypes were injected intravenously into mice and the clearance from the circulation was determined. The half-life of polyreactive IgM, IgA, and IgG antibodies was 8.0, 8.2, and 9.8 hr, respectively, compared to 35.4, 26.6, and 280 hr for monoreactive IgM, IgA, and IgG antibodies, respectively. Examination of tissue sections from animals given intravenous antibody showed substantial deposition of polyreactive, but not monoreactive, antibodies in several organs, the liver being the principal site of deposition. It is concluded that polyreactive antibodies are cleared from the circulation substantially faster than monoreactive antibodies.

AB To elucidate potential mechanisms of the acute lung injury associated with endotoxemia, we evaluated the effect of intravenously administered endotoxin on the ability of alveolar macrophages isolated by bronchoalveolar lavage from normal subjects to produce inflammatory mediators. Within 1 hr of endotoxin (4 ng/kg body weight) administration, all 12 study subjects developed constitutional symptoms and leukopenia, and within 3 hr, low-grade fever. Resolution of symptoms and fever by 6 hr was accompanied by systemic granulocytosis. Although intravenously administered endotoxin appeared to activate a subset of circulating monocytes, it did not alter the bronchoalveolar lavage cell number, phenotype (95% macrophages), or constitutively expressed high levels of surface HLA-DR and O2-. In contrast, intravenous endotoxin primed the alveolar macrophages for enhanced lipopolysaccharide-induced secretion of interleukin-1 (11.8 to 25.8 U/ml; P = 0.04), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (titer, 6.8 to 13.6; P = 0.20), and prostaglandin E2 (38.4 to 116.3 ng/ml; P = 0.035). These results demonstrate that low-dose intravenous endotoxin primes human alveolar macrophages, which are already differentiated in situ, for enhanced secretion of inflammatory mediators. Such mediators may contribute to the pulmonary changes associated with endotoxemia and acute lung injury.

AB Insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) hydrolyzes both insulin and IGFs and has been proposed to play a role in signal termination after binding of these peptides to their receptors. In situ hybridization was used to investigate the cellular distribution of IDE mRNA and to compare it with insulin receptor (IR) and IGF-I receptor (IGFR) gene expression in serial thin sections from a variety of tissues in embryonic and adult rats. IDE mRNA is highly abundant in kidney and liver, tissues known to play a role in insulin degradation. IDE and IR mRNAS are highly coexpressed in brown fat and liver. The highest level IDE gene expression, on a per cell basis, is found in germinal epithelium. IDE and IGFR mRNAs are colocalized in oocytes, while IDE is colocalized with the IGF-II receptor in spermatocytes, suggesting that IDE may be involved with degradation of IGF-II in the testis. In summary, IDE expression demonstrates significant anatomical correlation with insulin/IGF receptors. These data are compatible with a role for IDE in degrading insulin and IGFs after they bind to and are internalized with their respective receptors and may also suggest a novel role for IDE in germ cells.

AB We investigated the effects of 4-6-wk administration of testesterone on calcium and protein metabolism in six healthy prepubertal short boys (mean age+/-SE = 12.9+/-0.6 yr). At baseline, subjects received a 4-h infusion of L-[1-C-13]leucine and L-[2-N-15]glutamine, and were given Ca-42 intravenously, and Ca-44 PO. Testosterone enanthate (similar to 3 mg/kg) was given I.M. 2 wk apart (two doses n = 5, three doses n = 1), and the study was repeated 4-5 d after the last injection.
After testosterone therapy, there were significant increases in serum testosterone and mean peak and total growth hormone concentrations. Net calcium absorption (Va) and retention (Vbal) also increased (Va 13.3+/-2.3 vs 21.5+/-2.3; mg.kg(-1).d(-)1, Vbal 8.0+/-2.1 vs 16.6+/-2.5, mg.kg(-1).d(-1), P<.05 both), as well as Ca's net forward flow into bone and total exchangeable pool (16 and 20%, respectively). The rate of appearance of leucine (an indicator of proteolysis) increased by 17.6+/-5.9%, P = 0.036. Leucine oxidation decreased by 48.6+/-8.0%, P = 0.004; thus, nonoxidative leucine disappearance, which estimates protein synthesis, increased significantly by 34.4+/-7.7%, P = 0.009. Glutamine's rate of appearance also increased (+32%), mostly through enhanced glutamine de novo synthesis (+42%).
In conclusion, short term testosterone administration significantly increases calcium's retention and net forward flow into bone in prepubertal humans, as well as whole body estimates of protein and calcium anabolism. These effects may represent a pure androgen effect, an amplification of growth hormone's action or some combination of these factors.

AB High levels of immunoreactive cyclooxygenase (Cox; prostaglandin H synthase) are present in synovia from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We now show that the recently identified inducible isoform of Cox, Cox-2, is expressed in synovia from patients with RA. To further explore modulation of the Cox isoforms in RA synovial tissues, we examined the expression and modulation of Cox-1 and -2 in rheumatoid synovial explant cultures and cultured rheumatoid synovial fibroblastlike cells (synoviocytes). Immunoprecipitation of in vitro labeled proteins and Western blot analysis demonstrated the presence of both Cox-1 and -2 under basal conditions in freshly explanted rheumatoid synovial tissues. De novo synthesis of Cox-2 polypeptide was enhanced by IL-1 beta or PMA, and dramatically suppressed by dexamethasone (dex). Cox-1 expression, under the same conditions, showed only minor variation. Since mRNA for Cox-2 is highly unstable, we examined the regulation of Cox-2 transcripts in cultured rheumatoid synoviocytes. Under basal conditions both Cox-1 and -2 mRNAs were present at low levels, but Cox-2 mRNA was markedly increased by treatment with IL-1 beta or PMA. dex markedly suppressed the induction of Cox-2 mRNA. In sharp contrast, Cox-1 transcripts were not modulated by IL-1 beta or dex. These data suggest that modulation of Cox-2 expression by IL-1 beta and corticosteroids may be an important component of the inflammatory process in synovial tissues from patients with RA.

AB Neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism is a rare life-threatening disorder characterized by very high serum calcium concentrations (> 15 mg/dl). Many cases have occurred in families with familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia, a benign condition transmitted as a dominant trait. Among several hypothesized relationships between the two syndromes is the suggestion that neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism is the homozygous form of familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia. To test this hypothesis, we refined the map location of the gene responsible for familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia on chromosome 3q. Analyses in 11 families defined marker loci closely linked to the gene responsible for familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia. These loci were then analyzed in four families with parental consanguinity and offspring with neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism. Each individual who was homozygous for loci that are closely linked to the gene responsible for familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia had neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism . The calculated odds of linkage between these disorders of > 350,000:1 (lod score = 5.56). We conclude that dosage of the gene defect accounts for these widely disparate clinical phenotypes; a single defective allele causes familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia, while two defective alleles causes neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism.

AB Current algorithms for the serologic confirmation of human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I or II (HTLV-I/II) antibody reactivity are complicated. We evaluated the performance of an HTLV/I Western blot (immunoblot) spiked with recombinant p21e protein (p21e WB) as an alternative to current confirmatory methods. These methods include the HTLV-I viral lysate Western blot and either a radioimmunoprecipitation assay or a p21e enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Five hundred fifty nine blood donations obtained from five U.S. blood centers and classified as HTLV-I/II seropositive (n = 149) or seroindeterminate (n = 410) by routine testing methods were further evaluated by PCR for proviral DNA and by the p21e WB. On the basis of serologic and PCR testing, 155 donations were classified as HTLV-I/II infected. The sensitivity of the p21e WB was 97.4%, slightly exceeding that of routine confirmatory testing. The specificity of the p21e WB was 97.5%, as determined by testing of 404 seroindeterminate samples that were negative in the PCR. The positive predictive value of the p21e WB was 94%. In contrast, the specificity and positive predictive value of routine confirmatory testing were both 100%. follow-up sampling of presumptive p21e WB false-positive donors substantiated the absence of HTLV-I/II infection. Although the p21e WB used in this study has high sensitivity and may be useful as a confirmatory assay in epidemiologic research studies, it may not be ideal as a confirmatory test for the notification of blood donors.

AB Recent investigations of childhood-onset obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and pediatric movement disorders such as tics, Tourette's syndrome (TS), and Sydenham's chorea suggest that these disorders may be related. Although comorbid obsessive-compulsive symptoms have long been recognized in individuals with TS, more recent studies have demonstrated that tics and TS are surprisingly common in children with primary OCD, and further, that the two disorders seem to have a common genetic vulnerability. Obsessive-compulsive symptoms are also manifest in Sydenham's chorea, a neurologic variant of rheumatic fever in which antistreptococcal antibodies are thought to cross-react with neuronal tissue, particularly within the basal ganglia, and cause inflammatory changes resulting in neuropsychiatric symptomatology. The frequent comorbidity of OCD and Sydenham's chorea and similar postulates of basal ganglia dysfunction for both disorders suggest that Sydenham's chorea may serve as a medical model for OCD. Of note, however, is that the medications (e.g., neuroleptics) that are effective in treating this and other movement disorders are distinctly different from those that are efficacious for OCD (e.g., serotonin reuptake blockers). Examinations of the similarities and differences among these various neuropsychiatric conditions may lead to greater understanding of the pathophysiology of OCD and offer further insights into the etiology and treatment of this troubling disorder.

AB Five hypotheses regarding child maltreatment were derived from sociobiological theory and tested using data on 69,119 families and 113,748 abused children. It was predicted that: 1) nonbiological parents would engage in more severe types of abuse than would biological parents; 2) in two-biological-parent households, biological fathers would maltreat their progeny more than would biological mothers; 3) biological parents would abuse their progeny while their children were very young, whereas nonbiological parents would not show a predictable age-related pattern of abuse; 4) when biological parents from poorer families abused their progeny, the victims would tend to be male, whereas when biological parents from more affluent families abused their progeny, the victims would tend to be female; and 5) children living with female relatives who were past their reproductive prime would be at low risk for abuse. Only two of these hypotheses were supported: biological parents abused younger rather than older children, whereas nonbiological parents did not show a predictable age-related pattern of abuse; and female relatives past their reproductive prime tended to commit less severe types of abuse than did female relatives still reproductively capable.

AB In the cerebral cortex, local circuit neurons provide critical inhibitory control over the activity of pyramidal neurons, the major class of excitatory efferent cortical cells. The calcium-binding proteins, calretinin, calbindin, and parvalbumin, are expressed in a variety of cortical local circuit neurons. However, in the primate prefrontal cortex, relatively little is known, especially with regard to calretinin, about the specific classes or distribution of local circuit neurons that contain these calcium-binding proteins. In this study, we used immunohistochemical techniques to characterize and compare the morphological features and distribution in macaque monkey prefrontal cortex of local circuit neurons that contain each of these calcium-binding proteins.
On the basis of the axonal features of the labeled neurons, and correlations with previous Golgi studies, calretinin appeared to be present in double-bouquet neurons, calbindin in neurogliaform neurons and Martinotti cells, and parvalbumin in chandelier and wide arbor (basket) neurons. Calretinin was also found in other cell populations, such as a distinctive group of large neurons in the infragranular layers, but it was not possible to assign these neurons to a known cell class. In addition, although the animals studied were adults, immunoreactivity for both calretinin and calbindin was found in Cajal-Retzius neurons of layer I. Dual labeling studies confirmed that with the exception of the Cajal-Retzius neurons, each calcium-binding protein was expressed in separate populations of prefrontal cortical neurons.
Comparisons of the laminar distributions of the labeled neurons also indicated that these calcium-binding proteins were segregated into discrete neuronal populations. Calretinin-positive neurons were present in greatest density in deep layer I and layer II, calbindin-immunoreactive cells were most dense in layers II-superficial III, and parvalbumin-containing neurons were present in greatest density in the middle cortical layers. In addition, the relative density of calretinin-labeled neurons was approximately twice that of the calbindin- and parvalbumin-positive neurons. However, within each group of labeled neurons, their laminar distribution and relative density did not differ substantially across regions of the prefrontal cortex.
These findings demonstrate that calretinin, calbindin, and parvalbumin are markers of separate populations of local circuit neurons in monkey prefrontal cortex, and that they may be useful tools in unraveling the intrinsic inhibitory circuitry of the primate prefrontal cortex in both normal and disease states.

AB The prevalence of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is steadily increasing among American children. The dental needs of these patients are significant. This study evaluated the oral health of forty children being treated for HIV-infection at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Eight of twenty-two patients in primary dentition (36 percent) had baby bottle tooth decay (BBTD). These cases required extensive dental restoration usually under general anesthesia. Tooth development was delayed in 31 percent of patients. Candidiasis was the most common soft tissue abnormality, found in 35 percent of children. Preventive and therapeutic dental programs should be instituted to meet the special needs of pediatric AIDS patients.

AB Testosterone trans-4-n-butylcyclohexyl carboxylate releases continuous physiological levels of testosterone into the circulation of men or monkeys over a period of 8 to 10 weeks from an intramuscular depot and may, therefore, be an agent of choice for androgen replacement therapy. The purpose of this study was to investigate the metabolism of the ester and its side chain. The ester was hydrolysed by blood sera of guinea-pig, rabbit and rat, but not horse or man. It was slowly hydrolysed by rat and cynomolgus liver and the testosterone metabolites androstenedione and androstanediol were formed. Bucyclic acid (trans-4-n-butylcyclohexyl carboxylate) was slowly metabolized to two metabolites, M1 and M2, by cynomolgus liver homogenates. The acid metabolites were analysed by chromatography and mass spectrometry after reaction with diazomethylpyrene to form fluorescent pyrenyl esters. When compared with synthetic compounds using the criteria of chromatographic mobility and mass spectral analysis, the polar metabolite was identified as hydroxy-4-n-butylcyclohexyl carboxylate. The less polar metabolite could not be definitively identified.

AB The cysteine, cystine, methionine and sulfate uptake and cysteine metabolism of Giardia lamblia was studied. Initial experiments indicated that bathocuproine sulphonate (20 mu M) added to Keister's modified TYI-S-33 medium supported the growth of G. lamblia at low L-cysteine concentration. This allowed the use of high specific activity radiolabeled L-cysteine for further studies. The analyses of L-cysteine uptake by G. lamblia indicate the presence of at least two different transport systems. The total cysteine uptake was non saturable, with a capacity of 3.7 pmoles per 10(6) cells per min per mu M of cysteine, and probably represent passive diffusion. However, cysteine transport was partially inhibited by L-methionine, D-cysteine and DL-homocysteine, indicating that another system specific for SH-containing amino acids is also present. Cysteine uptake was markedly decreased in medium without serum. In contrast to cysteine, the uptake of L-methionine and sulfate were carried out by saturable systems with apparent K-m of 71 and 72 mu M, respectively, but the V-max of the uptake of sulfate was six orders of magnitude lower than the V-max of methionine uptake. Cystine was not incorporated into trophozoites. [S-35]-labeled L-cysteine and L-methionine, but not [S-35]sulfate, were incorporated into Giardia proteins, indicating that the parasite lacks the capacity to synthesize cysteine or methionine from sulfate. Neither cystathionine gamma lyase nor crystathionine gamma synthase activities was detected in homogenates of Giardia lamblia, suggesting that the transsulfuration pathway is not active and there is no conversion of methionine to cysteine. Our data indicate take up cystine, and b) cannot synthesize cysteine de novo.

AB The antibody-dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity (K-cell activity) of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 92 patients with germinal cell tumors and 60 healthy male controls was measured against 0,Rh(D) positive human red blood cells sensitized with anti-D antibody. To determine the maximal K-cell activity the enyzme-like kinetic model of cytotoxicity-in which lysis was measured in presence of target cell excess, was utilized. To avoid variations due to the individual sensitivity of target erythrocytes red blood cells were obtained from a single donor. It was demonstrated that the K-cell activity of patients with germinal cell tumors was significantly enhanced compared to the control group. Patients with clinically detectable tumors showed relevant higher activity than those without detectable tumor. Chemotherapy significantly enhanced the activity of patients in the former group.

DT Note
ID MONOCLONAL-ANTIBODY; METASTATIC MELANOMA; HLA-A2; CELLS
AB We recently isolated a cDNA clone that encodes the melanocyte lineage-specific antigen glycoprotein (gp)100. Antibodies directed against gp100 are an important tool in the diagnosis of human melanoma. Since the gp100 antigen is highly expressed in melanocytic cells, we investigated whether this antigen might serve as a target for antimelanoma cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). Here, we demonstrate that cytotoxic tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) derived from a melanoma patient (TIL 1200) are directed against gp100. HLA-A2.1(+) melanoma cells are lysed by TIL from this patient. In addition, murine double transfectants, expressing both HLA-A2.1 and gp100, are lysed by TIL 1200, whereas transfectants expressing only HLA-A2.1 are not susceptible to lysis. Furthermore, the HLA-A2.1(+) melanoma cell line BLM, which lacks gp100 expression and is resistant to lysis, becomes susceptible after transfection of gp100 cDNA. Finally, HLA-A2.1(+) normal melanocytes are lysed by TIL 1200. These data demonstrate that the melanocyte differentiation antigen gp100 can be recognized in the context of HLA-A2.1 by CTL from a melanoma patient. Gp100 may therefore constitute a useful target for specific immunotherapy against melanoma, provided that no unacceptable cytotoxicity towards normal tissue is observed.

AB An automated method for 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) staining of mouse lung tissue with the Fisher Code-On series is described. BrdU labeling indices (LI) were statistically analyzed to determine the efficacy of automated vs manual staining to detect BrdU incorporation. In the automated method, which utilized capillary gap technology, tissue-tissue and tissue-non-tissue slide pairing were evaluated. The effects of varying trypsin concentrations and the maximum concentration for producing optimal automated BrdU staining were also determined. Comparisons were made between 10% neutral buffered formalin and modified B5 (mercuric chloride) fixed tissues. The automated and manual BrdU staining methods were comparable in overall quality. Analysis of variance procedures revealed no significant differences between the manual and automated procedures for LI in the treated and control animals. In the automated method, no significant difference in the intensity or pattern of staining was found in the variations of slide pairing. A 0.3% trypsin concentration enhanced the intensity of nuclear staining compared to 0.006% trypsin; however, the optimal trypsin concentration in which cellular integrity was maintained was determined to be 0.0375%. Tissues preserved in modified B5 fixative had distorted cellular morphology and decreased intensity of staining compared to tissues fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin, after trypsin digestion.

AB Objective: To determine concordance for hypertension in adult male twins and to examine individual environmental factors associated with the manifestation of the disease in one member but not both members of a twin pair.
Methods: The subjects were 1003 monozygotic and 858 dizygotic Caucasian, male, World War II veteran twins born in the USA between 1917 and 1927, who were aged 56-66 years when surveyed by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute for health behaviors and cardiovascular disease status. Hypertensive status was determined by the subjects' diagnostic reports from physicians and the subjects' past or current use of antihypertensive medications. Self-reports were validated in a subsample of 675 individual twins who were participants in a series of cardiovascular examinations and for whom blood pressure measurements were available.
Results: The data analyses indicate that in this cohort of adult male twins, 62% of monozygotic and 48% of dizygotic cotwins of the hypertensive twins were hypertensives, compared with a prevalence of 36% in the whole cohort. Among the 281 monozygotic twins discordant for hypertension, hypertensive twins differed significantly from their non-hypertensive cotwins in the weight gain throughout adulthood and in alcohol consumption. They did not differ in weight at induction into the military, or according to smoking, physical activity or demographics. Those pairs that were concordant for hypertension gained significantly more weight throughout adulthood, consumed more alcohol, and were physically less active than concordant-negative pairs.
Conclusions: The findings from this study suggest that although genetic factors influence the development of hypertension, non-genetic and potentially modifiable lifestyle behaviors, including adult weight gain, alcohol consumption and physical activity, are closely related to the clinical manifestation of the disease,

AB beta(2)-Microglobulin knockout mice (beta(2)-m-/-) with MHC class I expression deficiency are able to develop functional TCR(+)-alpha beta, CD8(+) CTLs in response to tumor cell injection. The i.p. injection of beta(2)-m-/- mice with tumor results in the massive accumulation of highly lytic CD8(+) CTLs in the peritoneum and causes the local recruitment of CD8(+) T cells into lymph nodes and spleens of immune animals. The accumulation of CD8(+) CTLs in peritoneum is accompanied by the rejection of tumor cells and the survival of animals. The deficiency in MHC class I expression in beta(2)-m-/- mice is reflected in the delayed tumor rejection and CD8(+) cell accumulation during the primary anti-tumor response in comparison with normal mice. The secondary response, however, is identical in normal and MHC class I-deficient mice. The rejection of tumor cells appears to be MHC class I directed because no rejection of tumors, no accumulation oi CD8(+) CTLs, and no survival of animals were observed when syngeneic tumor cells were used for injection with the notable exception of anti-minor Ag response. The Ag specificity of CD8(+) CTLs in beta(2)-m-/- mice is demonstrated using a panel of tumor target cells and class I transfectants. Although no substantial differences were found in the number and specificity of peritoneal CD8(+) CTLs in beta(2)-m-/- and normal mice using tumor rejection studies, the analysis of TCR-V beta phenotype using the panel of mAbs revealed the reduction in proportion of TCR-V beta and TCR-V beta 6 used by CD8(+) cell population from beta(2)-m-/- mice. Development of lytic and H-2-directed CD8(+) cells in regional lymph nodes was also observed after footpad immunization of beta(2)-m-/- mice with TNP-labeled C57BL/6 splenocytes, suggesting anti-minor Ag reaction.

AB 4-1BB is an inducible T cell surface receptor which belongs to the nerve growth factor receptor superfamily, a group of cysteine-rich cell-surface proteins. 4-1BB is a 30-kDa glycoprotein and exists as both a monomer and a 55-kDa dimer on the T cell surface. Cross-linking 4-1BB with monoclonal antibody resulted in the 2- to 10-fold enhancement of T cell proliferation. We have isolated and characterized 4-1BB genomic clones and have found that the 4-1BB gene contains two different 5' untranslated regions, which are used alternately to form the 4-1BB mRNA. The two 5' UTRs were encoded in the same chromosome and were separated from one another by an intron of similar to 2.5 kb. The entire gene spans approximately 13 kb of mouse chromosome 4.4-1BB gene consists of 10 exons and 9 introns, in which there are two exons for 5' untranslated regions and 8 exons for coding region. Most of the putative functional domains were encoded by separate exons. 4-1BB extracellular domain contains four potential C6 (CXn C XX C XX CXn C Xn C) motifs, of which the first motif is partial and the third is distinct from those of nerve growth factor receptor or TNF receptor 1. A comparison of exon-intron organization among the genes of the nerve growth factor receptor family indicated that most C6 motif is interrupted by an intron.

AB IFNs are well characterized macrophage-activating agents. Their varied effects are largely mediated via the induction of many genes, whose products act in concert to induce macrophage differentiation. Homologous DNA sequences have been found upstream of the promoter in many of these IFN-inducible genes and bind a family of trans-acting proteins. Interferon consensus sequence binding protein (ICSBP) is one member of this family of interferon regulatory factors (IRF) and is structurally related within the DNA-binding domain to the other members, IRF-1, IRF-2, and ISCF3 gamma. ISCBP mRNA levels become elevated in response to IFN-gamma; however, little is known about the regulation of ICSBP expression at the protein level. In this study, anti-ICSBP peptide Abs were used to quantify and localize ICSBP in murine peritoneal exudate macrophages. Western blot analysis of cytoplasmic and nuclear extracts from treated and control cells revealed ICSBP to be induced by IFN-gamma and not by IFN-alpha and to exist primarily in the nucleus. The regulation of ICSBP induction by IFN-gamma was consistent with the characteristics found at the mRNA level; inhibition by IFN-alpha or glucocorticoids and the requirement for protein kinase C (as determined pharmacologically). The time course of IFN-gamma-induced ICSBP showed an induction of protein that required similar to 12 h to reach maximal levels. Induced ICSBP was relatively stable, exhibiting a half-life of similar to 48 h. Indirect immunofluorescence also demonstrated ICSBP to be an IFN-gamma-inducible protein that is strongly localized to the nucleus.

AB We have biochemically purified a 27-kDa serine protease (designated RNK-Tryp-2) from the granules of the rat large granular lymphocyte leukemia cell line (RNK-16) which has tryptase activity. Utilizing molecular sieve chromatography and reverse-phase HPLC, we purified RNK-Tryp-2 to homogeneity and sequenced 33 NH2 terminal amino acids. Oligonucleotide primers were used in the PCR to generate a 528-bp cDNA clone encoding a novel serine protease from RNK-16 mRNA. This cDNA clone was used to isolate an 884-bp RN K-Tryp-2 cDNA from an RNK-16 lambda-gt11 library. The open reading frame predicts a mature protein of 233 amino acids which does not have potential sites for N-linked glycosylation. The cDNA encodes a leader peptide of at least 25 amino acids. The characteristic Ile-Ile-Gly-Gly amino acids of the N-terminus, and the His, Asp, and Ser amino acids that form the catalytic triad of serine proteases, are conserved. The amino acid sequence has less than 45% identity with any other member of the serine protease family, indicating that RNK-Tryp-2 is distinct protease. Southern blot analysis suggests the existence of one or more related genes. A single 1.3-kb mRNA transcript was detected by Northern blot analysis of total cellular RNA from the in vivo passaged RNK-16, rat splenocytes, lung and liver nonparenchymal cells, as well as in highly purified rat LGL and T cells. RNK-Tryp-2 is a novel serine protease that is expressed in the granules of large granular lymphocytes.

AB The idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are a heterogeneous group of diseases in which autoreactive T cells are thought to play a pathogenetic role. We have determined the pattern of TCR-alpha beta gene expression by muscle-infiltrating lymphocytes within clinically and serologically defined groups of IIM patients. We utilized the PCR to study TCR V gene expression in muscle biopsies from nine polymyositis (PM) and eight dermatomyositis (DM) patients, all of whom had autoantibodies directed against histidyl-transfer RNA synthetase (anti-Jo-1 autoantibodies). While the TCR repertoire in DM patients was generally polyclonal, an oligoclonal profile characterized PM patients. Certain V gene families were predominantly expressed; V alpha 1 and V beta 6 gene families were detected in 82 and 91% of PM biopsies, respectively. TCR expression was characterized further by analyzing J gene usage from four PM patients expressing the V beta 6 gene. Sequence analysis of 40 independent recombinants (10 per patient) identified only seven V beta 6 clonotypes and restricted usage of the related J beta 2.1, -2.3, and -2.7 genes. These data, describing predominant TCR V and I gene usage by muscle-infiltrating lymphocytes in myositis patients, suggest that Ag-driven T cell responses may play a primary role in mediating some forms of the IIM.

TI HOST-PARASITE RELATIONSHIPS IN AMEBIASIS - CONFERENCE REPORT
SO JOURNAL OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES
LA English
DT Editorial Material
AB Entamoeba histolytica has been redescribed as the separate species E. histolytica and Entamoeba dispar. E. dispar is apparently never invasive in humans, while E. histolytica is the etiologic agent of amebic colitis and liver abscess. Virulence factors that may enable E. histolytica to invade include a galactose-specific adhesin, secreted proteases, extracellular matrix receptors, and a cell surface lipophosphoglycan. Progress in vaccine development includes the identification of the cysteine-rich domain of the adhesin and the serine-rich surface protein as protective antigens.

AB Infection by human T cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) is etiologically linked with HTLV-I-associated myelopathy (HAM) or adult T cell leukemia (ATL). To evaluate the contribution of the viral regulatory proteins tax and rex during the development of disease, antibody responses to these proteins were analyzed in patients with HAM (n = 28) or ATL (n = 48) and in asymptomatic carriers (n = 69). Epitope mapping analysis identified immunodominant epitopes towards the amino terminus (Tax8(106-125)) and at the carboxyl terminus (Tax22(316-335) Tax23(331-350), and Tax24(336-353)) Of tax and the amino terminus (Rex1(1-20), Rex2(16-35), Rex4(46-65) and Rex6(76-95)) of rex. Analysis fanatically reactivity to these immunodominant epitopes demonstrated preferential reactivity to Tax8, Tax22, Tax23, and Tax24 (71%-93%) and to Rex4 and Rex6 (52%) in p8tients with HAM when compared with reactivities in ATL patients (4%-31% for tax and 19%-24% for rex) or asymptomatic carriers (27%-37% for tax and 7%-23% for rex). In contrast, antibody responses to the immunodominant epitopes of the env proteins of HTLV-I (MTA, Env1, Env5) were similar in all of three clinical groups. Thus, differential immune responsiveness to the immunodominant epitopes of tax and rex in patients with HAM may play a role in disease pathogenesis in HTLV-I-infected persons.

AB Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) specific for O polysaccharide or core oligosaccharide/lipid A of Escherichia coli O111:B4 lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were compared in canine septic shock. Animals received O-specific, core-specific, or control murine IgG2a MAbs (or saline) before intraperitoneal implantation of an E. coli O111:B4-infected clot. Animals were further randomized to ceftriaxone or saline. O-specific MAb significantly reduced bacteremia and endotoxemia but not serum tumor necrosis factor. Core-specific MAb significantly increased mean arterial pressure from day 4 to 28 (P = .02). In dogs not receiving ceftriaxone, survival was enhanced by O-specific MAb (4/5) compared with core-specific MAb (0/5) and control (1/8) (P = .03). Survival rates were similar (P = .22) but survival was prolonged in antibiotic-treated animals also receiving O-specific MAb (P = .02 vs. core-specific MAb and controls) or core-specific MAb (P = .08 vs. controls). These data support the complex role of LPS in sepsis and the discrete functional effects of MAbs specific for different elements of LPS.

AB The existence of immunity to Onchocerca volvulus (Ov) infection is suggested by the presence of uninfected persons in hyperendemic areas. A major barrier to the study of immunity has been the correct identification of putatively immune (PI) subjects. To identify a PI group in a hyperendemic area in Ecuador, clinical and epidemiologic information was combined with a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based assay identifying Ov DNA in skin snips and a recombinant antigen-based ELISA. Comparison of immune responses revealed that PI subjects had significantly lower levels of Ov-specific IgG, IgG subclasses, and IgE than infected (INF) subjects. Female subjects were significantly more likely to be PI than male subjects, and INF female subjects had significantly lower levels of Ov-specific IgG, IgG1, and IgG3 than Inf male subjects. Thus, the use of molecular-based techniques has helped to define more precisely the PI state in onchocerciasis.

AB Although successful treatment of loiasis with diethylcarbamazine (DEC) has been reported, little is known about the long-term success rate of therapy or the predisposing factors for treatment failure. To address these questions, 32 patients were followed 2-15 years (median, 4.5) after DEC treatment; all had acquired infection while expatriate visitors to endemic areas of Africa. Using a strict definition of successful treatment, 12 (38%) appeared to be cured after one course of therapy and 5 (16%) after two courses. Of the remaining 15 patients, 3 continued to be symptomatic despite more than four courses of treatment. Although 12 of the 17 patients who relapsed did so within 1 year of treatment, several had relatively long asymptomatic periods (2-8 years). There was no predictive difference in clinical or laboratory parameters (including eosinophilia and specific filarial serology) between patients requiring one or more courses of therapy.

SO JOURNAL OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES

DT Note
ID DNA PROBES; SEQUENCE; PARASITE
AB Definitive diagnosis of Onchocerca volvulus (Ov) infection requires the identification of the parasite in either the skin or subcutaneous nodules. These parasitologic approaches suffer from poor sensitivity. To assess the efficacy and utility of a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based diagnosis for Ov infection, skin snips were examined from 94 persons in an Ov-endemic region of Ecuador, and results were compared in a blinded fashion with those of a PCR assay based on the Onchocerca-specific repetitive DNA sequence, O-150. All 60 patients microfilaria-positive on skin snip examination were positive in the PCR-based assay. In addition, 13 of 34 who were microfilaria-negative by skin snips were positive in the PCR assay. This suggests that the PCR-based assay is significantly more sensitive than current methods and overcomes many deficiencies of parasitologic and serologic methodologies in diagnosing active onchocerciasis.

ID HTLV-I; CARRIERS
AB Epidemiologic investigations of Strongyloides stercoralis and human T lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) infections were conducted. Of 312 persons contacted, 209 (67%) provided blood and stool samples. Prevalences of S. stercoralis and HTLV-I antibodies were 26.8% and 8.1% (n = 198), respectively, and S. stercoralis larvae were detected in 4%. HTLV-I antibodies were significantly more common in persons positive for S. stercoralis larvae (10 [58.8%] of 17) compared with seropositive larva-negative (4 [8.9%] of 45) or seronegative persons (9 [6.2%] of 145) (P < .002). IgE levels increased with age in S. stercoralis-seropositive persons who were HTLV-I negative (P < .002). However, there was ange-related depression of serum IgE in HTLV-I-positive persons (P < .003) that was sufficient to annul the IgE level-raising effect of S. stercoralis seropositivity. The data provide evidence that HTLV-I infection is associated with increased frequency of larvae in the stool of S. stercoralis-infected persons and suggest that the mechansim may involve suppression of the IgE response.

AB Recently we reported that the high-affinity receptor for IgE, FcepsilonRI, is constitutively expressed on normal epidermal Langerhans cells (LC) and on certain cells within the dermis. To study the nature of these cells we performed immunofluorescence double-labeling experiments using an anti-FcepsilonRI reagent (MoAb 15-1) as well as monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) against leukocyte differentiation antigens expressed on LC, interdigitating cells and macrophages. Avidin-fluorescein isothiocyanate was used to distinguish mast cells.
We found that dermal FcepsilonRI+ cells are bone marrow derived (CD45+). Further, we found that a subset of 15-1+ dermal cells coexpresses antigens present on certain members of the LC/DC family: the majority of FcepsilonRI+ cells reacted with MoAb anti - HLA-DR and RFD1, the latter recognizes an antigenic moiety on interdigitating cells, and a small subpopulation coexpressed CD1a. In reverse fashion, virtually all CD1a+ cells and most RFD1+ cells reacted with the anti-FcepsilonI reagent. Approximately one third of 15-1+ cells represented avidin-FITC+ mast cells whereas FcepsilonRI expression was not detected on FXIIIa+ dermal dendrocytes or CD3+ lymphocytes. By immunoelectronmicroscopy, we found that perivascularly located 15-1-reactive cells exhibited pronounced dendrites, an indented nucleus, numerous mitochondria, and abundant endo-/lysosomal structures. However, Birbeck granules or granules specific for basophils or eosinophils were never detected in these cells.
Collectively, our data suggest that the pool of dermal FcepsilonRI+ cells consists mainly of cells of the LC (CD1a+)/FXIIIa+ dermal macrophages.

AB Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis is an autosomal dominant ichthyosis characterized by blistering, especially at birth and during childhood, and hyperkeratosis. Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis presents striking clinical heterogeneity, particularly between families. Several avenues of research have implicated an abnormality of epidermal differentiation in the pathogenesis of this disease. In a three-generation family with 20 affected individuals, we tested a variety of candidate loci and identified linkage to the type II keratin region on chromosome 12. Further investigation revealed a mutation in the Hl subdomain of the keratin 1 gene as the cause of EHK in this family. Because keratin 10 is the co-expressed partner of keratin 1, it was not surprising when abnormalities in keratin 10 were found in other families with EHK. We have examined 52 patients from 21 families and have identified at least six clinical phenotypes. The most useful distinguishing feature was the presence or absence of severe hyperkeratosis of the palms and soles. We and others are continuing to search for and characterize mutations in keratin 1 and 10 in patients with epidermolytic hyperkeratosis. Correlation of the clinical disease types with the specific mutations should lead to a better understanding of the relationship between keratin structure and function in normal and diseased epidermis.

AB Natural killer (NK) cells mediate non-major histocompatibility complex-restricted lysis of tumor cells, lymphokine-activated killing (LAK), antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), and reverse ADCC (RADCC). LGL-1(+) cells identify a major subset (50%) of murine NK cells. Here we demonstrate that monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to LGL-1. consistently induce interleukin-2-cultured, and Corynebacterium par vum (in vivo)-activated NK cells to induce RADCC. LGL-1 triggering of activated NK cells coincides with enhanced LGL-1. expression. Testing of murine mAbs to epitopes of CD2 only appears to augment RADCC induced by mAb NK-1.1 on fresh NK cells. Immunoprecipitation of the LGL-1 antigen reveals a highly disulfide-linked 40-kDa homodimer subunit that is N-glycosylated. Therefore, LGL-1 may be similar to other recently characterized NK-associated antigens such as NK-1.1, Ly-49, and NKR-PI. We conclude that although LGL-1 is expressed on ''resting'' NK cells, enhanced surface expression following activation is usually required for it to act as a signaling molecule.

AB A wide variety of functions, many of which represent opposing activities, have been attributed to TGF-beta, a molecule implicated in embryogenesis, development, and immune and inflammatory processes. This paradoxical behavior of promoting or inhibiting cell growth and function, while important in normal physiology and homeostasis, can contribute to or interrupt pathologic sequelae, making TGF-beta a particularly intriguing molecule for study. New transgenic mouse models displaying targeted alterations in TGF-beta 1 expression offer novel and unique opportunities to determine the essential function(s) of TGF-beta.

AB The diagonal and off-diagonal elements of the effective self-diffusion tensor, D(eff), are related to the echo intensity in an NMR spin-echo experiment. This relationship is used to design experiments from which D(eff) is estimated. This estimate is validated using isotropic and anisotropic media, i.e., water and skeletal muscle. It is shown that significant errors are made in diffusion NMR spectroscopy and imaging of anisotropic skeletal muscle when off-diagonal elements of D(eff) are ignored, most notably the loss of information needed to determine fiber orientation. Estimation of D(eff) provides the theoretical basis for a new MRI modality, diffusion tensor imaging, which provides information about tissue microstructure and its physiologic state not contained in scalar quantities such as T1, T2, proton density, or the scalar apparent diffusion constant.

AB Interpretation of NMR diffusion data is complicated in the presence of diffusion barriers. In this study, restricted diffusion in cylinders is evaluated. A method is presented to determine the diameter of the cylinder and the unrestricted diffusion coefficient from the dependence of the trace of the diffusion tensor with diffusion time. This method is valid even if the orientation of the cylinders is unknown and varies within the sample. An example is given for the diffusion of phosphocreatine in the cylindrically shaped fibers of rabbit skeletal muscle. (C) 1994 Academic Press, Inc.

AB Expression of the acetylcholine biosynthetic enzyme choline acetyltransferase (ChAT), the vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT), and the high-affinity plasma membrane choline transporter uniquely defines the cholinergic phenotype in the mammalian central (CNS) and peripheral (PNS) nervous systems. The distribution of cells expressing the messenger RNA encoding the recently cloned VAChT in the rat CNS and PNS is described here. The pattem of expression of VAChT mRNA is consistent with anatomical, pharmacological, and histochemical information on the distribution of functional cholinergic neurons in the brain and peripheral tissues of the rat. VAChT mRNA-containing cells are present in brain areas, including neocortex and hypothalamus, in which the existence of cholinergic neurons has been the subject of debate. The demonstration that VAChT is a completely adequate marker for cholinergic neurons should allow the systematic delineation of cholinergic synapses in the rat nervous system when antibodies directed to this protein are available.

AB In astrocytes in primary culture, activation of neurotransmitter receptors results in intracellular calcium signals that propagate as waves across the cell. Similar agonist-induced calcium waves have been observed in astrocytes in organotypic cultures in response to synaptic activation. By using primary cultured astrocytes grown on glass coverslips, in conjunction with fluorescence microscopy we have analyzed agonist-induced Ca2+ wave initiation and propagation in individual cells. Both norepinephrine and glutamate elicited Ca2+ signals which were initiated focally and discretely in one region of the cell, from where the signals spread as waves along the entire length of the cell. Analysis of the wave propagation and the waveform revealed that the propagation was nonlinear with one or more focal loci in the cytoplasm where the wave was regeneratively amplified. These individual loci appear as discrete focal areas 7-15 mu m in diameter and having intrinsic oscillatory properties that differ from each other. The wave initiation locus and the different amplification loci remained invariant in space during the course of the experiment and supported an identical spatiotemporal pattern of signalling in any given cell in response to multiple agonist applications and when stimulated with different agonists which are coupled via InsP(3). Cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration at rest was consistently higher (17 +/- 4 nM, mean +/- S.E.M.) in the wave initiation locus compared with the rest of the cytoplasm. The nonlinear propagation results from significant changes in signal rise times, amplitudes, and wave velocity in cellular regions of active loci. Analysis of serial slices across the cell revealed that the rise times and amplitudes of local signals were as much as three- to fourfold higher in the loci of amplification. A phenomenon of hierarchy in local amplitudes of the signal in the amplification loci was observed with the wave initiation locus having the smallest and the most distal locus having the largest amplitude. By this mechanism locally very high concentrations of Ca2+ are achieved in strategic locations in the cell in response to receptor activation. While the average wave velocity calculated over the length of the cell was 10-15 mu m/s, in the active loci rates as high as 40 mu m/s were measured. Wave velocity was fivefold lower in regions of the cell separating active loci. The differences in the intrinsic oscillatory periods give rise to local Ca2+ waves that show the properties of collision and annihilation. It is hypothesized that the wave front provokes regenerative Ca2+ release from specialized areas in the cell where the endoplasmic reticulum is endowed with higher density of InsP(3) receptor channels. Thus wave propagation is achieved by a process of diffusion and regenerative Ca2+ release in multiple cellular loci provoked by the advancing wave front; in this way, wave propagation is nonlinear and saltatory. Regenerative Ca2+ wave propagation from distal astrocytic processes to the cell body and neighboring cells is likely to provide an important signalling mechanism in the nervous system.

AB The relevant parameters of calcium fluxes mediating activation of immediate-early genes and the collapse of growth cones in mouse DRG neurons in response to action potentials delivered in different temporal patterns were measured in a multicompartment cell culture preparation using digital fluorescence videomicroscopy. Growth cone collapse was produced by trains of action potentials causing a large rise in [Ca2+](i), but after chronic exposure to patterned stimulation growth cones regenerated and became insensitive to the stimulus-induced increase in [Ca2+](i). Calcium reached similar peak concentrations, but the [Ca2+](i) increased more slowly than in naive growth cones (time constant of 6.0 s versus 1.4 s in naive growth cones). Semiquantitative PCR measurements of gene expression showed that pulsed stimulation delivered at 1-min intervals for 30 min induced expression of c-fos, but the same total number of action potentials delivered at 2-min intervals failed to induce c-fos expression, even though this stimulus induces a larger peak [Ca2+](i) than the effective stimulus pattern. The experiments suggest that the kinetics of calcium fluxes produced by different patterns of stimulation, and changes in the kinetics of calcium flux in neurons under different states of activation, are critical in determining the effects of action potentials on growth cone motility or expression of IE genes during development of neuronal circuits. We propose that differences in kinetics of individual reactions in the stimulus-response pathway may lead to resonance of activation in the neuron, such that certain processes will be selectively activated by particular temporal patterns of stimulation.

AB The Hebb synapse has been postulated to serve as a mechanism subserving both regulation of synaptic strength in the adult nervous system (long-term potentiation and depression) and developmental activity-dependent plasticity. According to this model, pre- and postsynaptic temporal concordance of activity results in strengthening of connections, while discordant activity results in synapse weakening. Evidence is presented that proteases and protease inhibitors may be involved in modification of synaptic strength. This leads to a modification of the Hebb assumptions, namely that postsynaptic activity results in protease elaboration with a consequent general reduction of synaptic connections to the active postsynaptic element. Further, presynaptic activity, if strong enough, induces local release of a protease inhibitor, such as protease nexin I, which neutralizes proteolytic activity and produces a relative preservation of the active input. This formulation produces many of the effects of the classical Hebbian construction, but the protease/inhibitor model suggests additional specific mechanistic features for activity-dependent plasticity.

AB Neurochemical, pathologic, virologic, and histochemical correlates of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV)associated central nervous system (CNS) dysfunction were assessed serially or at necropsy in rhesus monkeys that exhibited motor and cognitive deficits after SIV infection. Some infected monkeys presented with signs of acquired immunodeficiency disease (AIDS) at the time of sacrifice. Seven of eight animals exhibited motor skill impairment which was associated with elevated quinolinic acid in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Examination of the brains revealed diffuse increases in glial fibrillary acidic protein immunoreactivity in cerebral cortex in all animals, regardless of evidence of immunodeficiency disease. Reactive astrogliosis preceded or was coincident with the onset of neuropsychological impairments. Virus rescue from CSF of six of eight infected animals showed that one of three animals with AIDS and none of three animals without AIDS at necropsy had virus rescue-positive CSF. Multinucleated giant cells were seen in the brain of only one animal with end-stage AIDS and high systemic virus burden at death. Neither systemic nor CNS virus burden was associated with the onset of CNS dysfunction. SIV-associated motor/cognitive impairment is associated with subtle, widespread changes in CNS cytology and neurochemistry, rather than with large increases in brain virus burden or widespread virus-associated brain lesions.

AB Phosphorylation of glutamate receptors (GluRs) is emerging as an important regulatory mechanism. In this study P-32 labeling of non-NMDA GluRs was investigated in cultured hippocampal neurons stimulated 2-15 min with agonists that selectively stimulate either Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM-kinase II), Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase C (PKC), or cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA). Treatment of hippocampal neurons with glutamate/ glycine (Glu/Gly), ionomycin, or 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) increased P-32 labeling of immunoprecipitated alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazoleproprionate (AMPA)-type GluRs by 145%, 180%, and 227%, respectively, of control values. This increased phosphorylation of GluRs was predominantly P-32-Ser with little P-32-Thr and no detectable P-32-Tyr. Glu/Gly and ionomycin, but not TPA, also increased P-32 labeling of CaM-kinase II by 175% and 195%, respectively, of control values. Of these three agonists, only TPA stimulated phosphorylation of MARCKS (225% of control), a specific substrate of PKC. Forskolin treatment gave a three- to fourfold increase in the active catalytic subunit of PKA but did not result in the P-32 labeling of AMPA-type GluRs, CaM-kinase II, or MARCKS. Phosphorylation of GluRs in response to Glu/Gly was blocked by a specific NMDA receptor/ion channel antagonist (DL-2-amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid) or by a cell-permeable inhibitor of CaM-kinase II (1-[N,O-bis(1,5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-N-methyl-L-tyrosyl]-4-phenylpiperazine, KN-62). These results are consistent with the hypothesis that Ca2+ influx through the NMDA-type ion channel can activate CaM-kinase II, which in turn can phosphorylate and regulate AMPA-type GluR ion channels (McGlade-McCulloh et al., 1993). Such a mechanism could contribute to the postsynaptic component of long-term potentiation and other forms of synaptic plasticity.

AB Cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein phosphorylation plays a central role in neuronal signal transduction. Neurotransmitter-elicited increases in cAMP/cGMP brought about by activation of adenylyl and guanylyl cyclases are downregulated by multiple phosphodiesterase (PDE) enzymes. In brain, the calmodulin (CaM)-dependent isozymes are the major degradative activities and represent a unique point of intersection between the cyclic nucleotide- and calcium (Ca2+)-mediated second messenger systems. Here we describe the distribution of the PDE1B1 (63 kDa) CaM-dependent PDE in mouse brain. An anti-peptide antiserum to this isoform immunoprecipitated approximate to 30-40% of cytosolic PDE activity, whereas antiserum to PDE1A2 (61 kDa isoform) removed 60-70%, demonstrating that these isoforms are the major CaM-dependent PDEs in brain. Quantification of PDE1B1 immunoreactivity on immunoblots indicated that striatum contains 3-17-fold higher levels of PDE1B1 than other brain regions, with lowest immunoreactivity in cerebellum. In site hybridization demonstrated high levels of PDE1B1 mRNA in the caudate-putamen, nucleus accumbens, and olfactory tubercle. Moderate mRNA levels were observed in dentate gyrus, cerebral cortex, medial thalamic nuclei, and brainstem, whereas negligible mRNA was detectable in the globus pallidus, islands of Calleja, substantia nigra, and ventral tegmental area. Immunocytochemistry confirmed that the majority of PDE1B1 protein was localized to the caudate-putamen, nucleus accumbens, and olfactory tubercle. Within the caudate-putamen, PDE1B1 immunoreactivity was ubiquitous, while PDE1AS immunostaining was restricted to a minor subset of striatal neurons. The expression of PDE1B1 protein and mRNA correlate strongly with areas of the brain that are richest in dopaminergic innervation; indeed, there are strikingly similar distributions for PDE1B1 and D-1 dopamine receptor mRNAs. Since D-1 receptor binding activates adenylyl cyclase, and striatal neurons lack CaM-sensitive forms of cyclase, the high amount of this PDE implies an important physiological role for Ca2+-regulated attenuation of cAMP-dependent signaling pathways following dopaminergic stimulation.

AB The ability of NMDA to alter intracellular pH (pH(i)) was studied in fetal rat hippocampal neurons and glia using the pH-sensitive fluorescent indicator 2',7'-bis-(2-carboxyethyl)-5-(and-6)-carboxyfluorescein (BCECF). Brief exposure (60 sec) of hippocampal neurons to NMDA (2.5-250 mu M) results in a rapid, and in most cells reversible, reduction in pH(i), with full recovery to baseline pH(i) values taking several minutes following removal of NMDA. In contrast, little or no change in pH(i) was observed in glial cells exposed to these same concentrations of NMDA. The NMDA-induced acidification of neurons was concentration and time dependent, with an EC(50) of 39 mu M and E(max) (Delta pH) of -0.53. More prolonged exposure to NMDA(greater than or equal to 10 min) resulted in a more prolonged reduction in pH(i) values over the ensuing 20 min observation period. The intracellular acidification resulting from NMDA exposure of hippocampal neurons was blocked by the NMDA receptor antagonist 3-((+/-)-2-carboxypiperazi n-4-yl)-propyl-1-phosphonic acid (CPP). Moreover, removal of extracellular Ca2+ eliminated both the selective NMDA-induced elevation in [Ca2+](i) and the reduction in pH(i) indicating that Ca2+ influx may be required for the decrease in pH(i) induced by NMDA receptor activation. Finally, the NMDA-induced reduction in pH(i) was not significantly attenuated when extracellular [H+] was decreased by increasing extracellular pH to 8.0. The latter suggests that an intracellular source of H+ is responsible for the NMDA-induced reduction in neuronal pH(i). The reduction in neuronal pH(i) induced by NMDA receptor activation may mediate some of the physiological and (or) pathophysiological actions of glutamate.

AB We examined age-related changes in object and spatial visual processing in two separate experiments. Regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) was measured in young and old subjects with positron emission tomography and H-2 O-15 during tests of face matching, location matching, and a control task. The task demands in the two experiments were identical, but the stimuli in Experiment II were constructed to equalize stimulus complexity across all three tasks. The old subjects performed more slowly than the young subjects in both experiments, and showed significantly slower reaction times during location matching compared to face matching in Experiment II. Both young and old subjects showed occipitotemporal rCBF activation during face matching and occipitoparietal activation during location matching when these conditions were compared to the control task. However, in both experiments and in both tasks, young subjects showed greater activation of prestriate cortex (Brodmann's area 18), and old subjects had larger rCBF increases in occipitotemporal cortex (area 37). Areas in prefrontal cortex, as well as in inferior and medial parietal cortex, were more activated in the old subjects during location matching in both experiments. These results demonstrate that reliable age-related changes during visual processing can be found in rCBF patterns, suggesting more efficient use of occipital visual areas by younger subjects and more reliance by older subjects on one or more cortical networks, particularly for spatial vision, perhaps to compensate for reduced processing efficiency of occipital cortex. Both the differentially increased reaction times and the more widespread prefrontal activation in the old subjects during location matching suggest that spatial vision may be affected to a greater degree by aging than is object vision.

AB The response of brain tissue to neurotrophins during rat development was examined using a novel in vitro assay for Trk/neurotrophin receptor activity. In this assay, brain tissues were exposed to neurotrophins and ligand-induced Trk tyrosine phosphorylation was measured. During the perinatal period, Trk tyrosine phosphorylation in all brain areas was induced very similarly by the TrkB and TrkC ligands brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin-3 (NT-3), and neurotrophin-4/5 (NT-4/5). In the adult brain, minimal signals were observed after treatment with these three factors, despite the continued presence of full-length and truncated TrkB protein. In contrast, responsiveness to the TrkA ligand NGF was absent in the embryo and increased during the first 2 weeks after birth in various brain areas, particularly in striatum, basal forebrain, and hippocampus. Our results, showing maximal responsiveness of brain tissue to BDNF, NT-3, and NT-4/5 during early neuronal differentiation and migration, suggest involvement of TrkB in these events. The lack of a significant response to these neurotrophins in the adult brain indicates effective posttranslational mechanisms that control the response of Trk family receptors. Our findings further demonstrate that neurons of the striatum and basal forebrain remain NGF responsive in the adult, confirming at the molecular level results obtained earlier at the cellular level for the basal forebrain cholinergic neurons.

AB Cell division, cell death, and remodeling of connections are major features of the construction of the mammalian CNS. We have begun to address the role of neurotrophins in these events through characterization of the expression of their receptors in the developing ferret visual system. By use of chemical cross-linking of iodinated neurotrophins, proteins corresponding to trkB, trkC, and p75 were identified as receptors for brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) throughout development. BDNF was also cross-linked to a truncated form of trkB that lacks the tyrosine kinase domain (trkB.T 1) in retinal target tissues and in cortex. At the earliest developmental age examined (E24), the ratio of full-length to truncated trkB is much greater than 1 in the retinal target tissues, LGN and superior colliculus. During the ensuing period of retinal ganglion cell death and segregation into eye-specific layers, the amount of truncated trkB increases markedly relative to full-length trkB. By P27, truncated trkB is the predominant receptor for BDNF in the retinal target tissues and this pattern is maintained into adulthood. Within all subdivisions of visual cortex including the ventricular zone (VZ), intermediate zone (IZ), and cortical plate (CP), similar profiles of bands are observed. The developmental increase in abundance of truncated trkB relative to full-length occurs earliest in the VZ, with a major increase between E30 and P3. In the IZ, this shift to a predominance of truncated trkB occurs between P15 and P30, while in the CP the shift is even further delayed, not occurring until after P30. Within each subdivision of cortex, the shift to a predominance of truncated trkB occurs at times that correlate with the onset of cell death and maturation of axonal connections. This study demonstrates that members of the trk family, previously identified in the CNS on the basis of mRNA transcripts, are present as receptors with specific binding affinities for BDNF and NT-3. Moreover, the correspondence between the developmental shift from full-length to truncated trkB and the critical periods for cell fate determination, cell death, and axonal remodeling suggests an important role for neurotrophic factors in the development of the visual system.

AB In order to determine the peptide bond specificity of calpain, human myelin basic protein (HMBP) was treated with purified calpain of bovine brain. Upon incubation, HMBP component I (HMBP-I) was degraded into several peptides as demonstrated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Component I was more susceptible to degradation than components II and III. HMBP degradation products were separated by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and the cleavage sites in HMBP molecules were determined by peptide sequence analysis and by N- and C-terminal analyses. The major cleavage site was found to be (94)Val-(95)Thr with several minor cleavages at (49)Arg-(50)Gly, (18)Ala-(19)Ser, (23)His-(24)Ala, (27)Gly-(28)phe, (59)Asp- (60)Ser, (70)Gly-(71)Ser, (97)Arg-(98)Thr, (110)Ser-(111)Leu, (145)Asp-(146)Ala, and (156)Leu-(157)Gly. These results indicate that calpain is involved in the limited proteolysis of human myelin basic protein and prolonged incubation causes further digestion of the large peptides.

AB The authors have recently shown the feasibility of eradicating brain tumors using in vivo retroviral-mediated transduction of tumors with the herpes simplex thymidine kinase (HStk) gene and ganciclovir therapy. However, thymidine kinase-transduced subcutaneous tumors in immunocompromised (athymic) mice were less responsive to this therapy than in immunocompetent animals, suggesting a role of the immune system in the process of tumor eradication. Broad suppression of humoral and cell-mediated immunity is found inpatients with malignant gliomas. Interleukin-2 (IL-2) production and IL-2 receptor expression are decreased in glioma patients. These findings and the proposed association between lymphocytic infiltration of brain tumors and survival suggest that immune response modifiers may be useful in treating glioma patients.
To evaluate the role of local cytokine expression by tumor cells, alone or combined with HStk gene transfer and ganciclovir therapy, the authors investigated the efficacy of tumor (9L gliosarcoma) eradication in Fischer rats by in vitro and in vivo tumor transduction with the IL-2 gene alone or with a combined vector carrying both the HStk and IL-2 genes. Tumors injected with HStk vector-producer cells alone, with or without ganciclovir, and rats inoculated in the brain and subcutaneously with 9L cells that had previously been transduced in vitro served as controls. Murine vector-producer cells (3 x 10(6)/50 mu l) were injected into the brain tumors 7 days after tumor inoculation. Ganciclovir (15 mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally twice daily for 10 days to animals that received HStk with or without IL-2 vector-producer cells, starting 5 days after producer-cell injection. The experiment was repeated with continuous daily treatment of all rats with oral dexamethasone (0.5 mg/kg). Rats were sacrificed 21 days after tumor inoculation, and the brains were removed for histological and immunohistochemical analysis for IL-2. Within each experimental group, tumors were found in a similar proportion in the dexamethasone-treated and untreated rats. Large brain tumors developed in all 10 rats that had been inoculated with 9L cells which had been pretransduced in vitro with the IL-2 gene, whereas only three of eight rats receiving subcutaneous inoculation of similar cells developed palpable tumors. No enhancement of tumor eradication was observed by adding the IL-2 gene in the HStk vector construct compared to the use of the vector with HStk alone. Lymphocytic infiltration was absent in all dexamethasone-treated rats but was observed in all treatment groups not receiving steroids. The degree of lymphocytic infiltration was not enhanced by intratumoral injection of IL-2 or IL-2/HStk vector-producer cells.
The findings suggest a limited role, if any, for immune enhancement by transduction with IL-2 to eradicate brain tumors, either used alone or in combination with HStk.

AB The present study addressed the hypothesis that there exist multiple sites/states associated with the dopamine (DA) transporter ligands. The authors used [H-3](1-[2-(diphenylmethoxy) ethyl]-4-(3-phenylpropyl)piperazine) (GBR12935) and [H-3]-N-{1-(2-benzo[b]thiophenyl)cyclohexyl }piperidine ([H-3]BTCP) to label binding sites present in striatal membranes and conducted experiments under nearly identical assay conditions, i.e., 18- to 24-hr incubations at 4 degrees C in 55.2 mM sodium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, with a protease inhibitor and antioxidant cocktail. To obtain data suitable for quantitative curve fitting, it was necessary to repurify the [H-3]ligands periodically by high-performance liquid chromatography. Under these conditions, greater than 90% specific binding was observed. The method of binding surface analysis was used to characterize the interaction of GBR12935, BTCP, mazindol and 2 beta-carbomethoxy-3 beta-(4-fluorophenyl) tropane with binding sites labeled by the [H-3]ligands. Nonlinear least-squares curve fitting of the data to one- and two-site binding models demonstrated that, for both [H-3]ligands, the two-site model fit the data far better than did the one-site model. The results indicated that [H-3]GBR12935 labeled two binding sites, with higher (GBR site 1) and lower affinity (GBR site 2) for BTCP (K-i values of 5.84 nM and 1394 nM). [H-3]BTCP labeled two sites with high affinity (K-d values of 9.3 nM and 6.3 nM) at which GBR12935 also had high affinity (K-i values of 8.9 nM and 0.98 nM). Intrastriatal 6-hydroxy-DA lesions decreased the density of both [H-3]GBR12935 binding sites but affected site 1 much more than site 2, which indicated that a greater portion of GBR site 1 is localized on striatal nerve terminals. By contrast, the 6-hydroxy-DA lesions decreased BTCP site 2 without significantly decreasing BTCP site 1, which indicated that BTCP site 1 is not located on DA nerve terminals. The i.c.v. administration of 5,7,- dihydroxytryptamine did not decrease GBR site 1 or 2, which indicated that neither is located on serotonin striatal nerve terminals. Viewed collectively with other reports, these data support the hypothesis that DA transporter ligands label multiple binding sites in caudate membranes. The identification of selective agents for these sites may be valuable tools for identifying drugs that might modulate the effects of cocaine.

AB Local anesthetics, given i.v. to treat cardiac arrhythmias and for regional anesthesia, exert prominent central nervous system side effects, such as sensory distortions and mood changes. In experimental animals, these drugs activate limbic structures, such as the amygdala, that may coordinately regulate sensory processing, mood and pituitary hormone secretion during stress. Clinically relevant i.v. doses of the short-acting local anesthetic procaine were administered to 17 healthy volunteers and topographic electroencephalographic (EEG) spectra, stress-responsive neuroendocrine and cardiovascular parameters and sensory-cognitive and mood changes were examined. Because corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) mimics the behavioral and physiologic responses to stress and activates limbic structures in experimental animals, the effects of procaine and lidocaine on immunoreactive CRH release from rat hypothalami in vitro were also explored. Procaine administration produced a dose-related increase in fast (21-50 Hz) EEG activity, a significant decrease in alpha EEG activity and dose-dependent increases in heart rate, systolic blood pressure and plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone, cortisol and prolactin secretion. Dose-dependent increases in sensory distortions involved virtually all modalities, particularly auditory, visual and somatosensory. Mood changes occurred in most subjects, including anxiety, euphoria and arousal. In vitro, procaine and lidocaine both produced significant dose-related increases in immunoreactive CRH release from rat hypothalami, maximal at 10(-6) M, that were blocked by carbamazepine, a limbic anticonvulsant used in the management of mood disorders. The electrophysiologic effects of procaine in these volunteers were analogous to local anesthetic effects in experimental animals and consistent with the activation of subcortical structures localized within the temporal lobe, such as the amygdala. The effects of procaine on stress-responsive neurohormones were similar to those of amygdala stimulation both in experimental animals and human subjects. The in vitro data suggested that procaine-induced pituitary-adrenal activation involves stimulation of hypothalamic CRH, although additional (e.g., limbic-hypothalamic) mechanisms may contribute in vivo. These data were compatible with a direct action of local anesthetics on limbic structures that might account for many of the central effects seen with the systemic use of these agents in clinical practice.

AB [H-3]CP-55,940, a high-affinity cannabinoid receptor ligand, was used for in vitro binding and autoradiography in peripheral tissues in the rat. Specific cannabinoid receptor binding was found to be restricted to components of the immune system, i.e., spleen, lymph nodes and Peyer's patches. Displacement studies showed that this binding is identical (similar K-d and structure-activity profile) to that in brain. Cannabinoid receptors in the immune system are confined to B lymphocyte-enriched areas, i.e., the marginal zone of the spleen, cortex of the lymph nodes and nodular corona of Peyer's patches. Specific binding is absent in T lymphocyte-enriched areas, such as the thymus and periarteriolar lymphatic sheaths of the spleen. Certain macrophage-enriched areas, i.e., liver and lung, lack specific binding. Thus, the single peripheral cell type that may contain cannabinoid receptors is the B lymphocyte. Numerous sites have dense binding that could not be displaced by excess unlabeled drug. These nonspecific sites were found in the liver, adrenal glands and sebaceous glands, which are high in fat content, and in the heart, pancreas, components of the male and female reproductive systems and the epithelium of the esophagus. Thus, the highly lipophilic nature of cannabinoids does not appear to be the sole determinant of nonspecific binding. The data suggest that cannabinoids may exert specific receptor-mediated actions on the immune system of rats. Perhaps, also at high concentrations, cannabinoids exert membrane effects at sites where they are sequestered nonspecifically.

AB Two patients with schizophrenia had markedly abnormal neuroimaging studies; one was found to have a large, cystic cavum vergae, while the other demonstrated complete agenesis of the septum pellucidum with a monoventricular system. The increased prevalence of developmental abnormalities of midline forebrain structures in patients with schizophrenia suggests that dysgenesis of these structures may be contributory to the neurobiology of schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders.

A random sample of 2,500 emergency physicians received a questionnaire comparing attitudes toward Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and professional alcoholism treaters. Physician agreement on the efficacy of alcoholism treaters was greatest for AA (87%), moderate for mental health professionals (including psychiatrists and psychologists, 55%) and least for physicians and surgeons (excluding psychiatrists, 23%; chi-square = 1, 024, p = .000000005, df = 2). Physician education about other alcoholism treaters may be necessary if all types of treatment are to be considered for the emergency room patient.

AB Objective: The objective of this study was to examine urinary catecholamine excretion in a self-selected sample of sexually abused and demographically matched control girls recruited from a prospective, longitudinal study. Method: Twenty-four-hour urinary catecholamine and metabolite concentrations of epinephrine, norepinephrine, dopamine, 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol, metanephrine, normetanephrine, vanillylmandelic acid, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, and homovanillic acid were measured in 12 sexually abused and 9 control girls, aged 8 to 15 years. Psychiatric profiles also were obtained. Results: The abused subjects excreted significantly greater amounts of metanephrine, vanillylmandelic acid, homovanillic acid, and total catecholamine synthesis as measured by the sum of epinephrine, norepinephrine, dopamine, and their metabolites compared to values from control subjects. When the means of all significant biochemical measures were adjusted by the covariate effect of height, only homovanillic acid and group interaction remained significant. There were positive trends toward significantly higher urinary excretion of metanephrine, vanillylmandelic acid, and total catecholamine synthesis. Sexually abused girls also had a greater incidence of suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, and dysthymia than control girls. Conclusions: These findings support the idea that sexually abused girls show evidence of higher catecholamine functional activity compared with controls. The clinical significance of these findings is their similarity to the psychobiology of both post-traumatic stress disorder and major depressive disorder. Results from this pilot study may be of value in understanding the mechanisms of depressive and anxiety disorders and in the clinical treatment of maltreated children.

AB Objectives. The objective of this study was to assess the clinical significance of reduced regional fluorine-18 F-18- fluorodeoxyglucose uptake with normal flow in patients with chronic coronary artery disease.
Background. In patients with ischemic left ventricular dysfunction, F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake may be reduced in some myocardial regions despite normal how. The significance of this finding is unclear and has not been investigated systematically.
Methods. Twenty-three patients with coronary artery disease and impaired ventricular function (mean ejection fraction [+/- SD] 28 +/- 10%) underwent positron emission tomography with F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose and oxygen 15-labeled water at rest, exercise thallium-201 tomographic imaging with rest reinjection and gated magnetic resonance imaging to measure end-diastolic wall thickness and systolic wall thickening.
Results. Of 168 regions with normal flow (greater than or equal to 0.7 ml/g per min), 125 (74%) had normal F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake (98 +/- 1O%), and the remaining 43 (26%) showed moderately reduced F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake (69 +/- 8%). Systolic wall thickening was absent at rest in 14% of regions with normal F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake compared with 32% of regions with reduced F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake (p < 0.01). Reversible thallium abnormalities were observed in 45 (36%) of 125 regions with normal F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake compared with 27 (63%) of 43 regions with reduced F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake (p < 0.01). This difference was accounted for by a higher proportion of partially reversible defects in regions with reduced F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake compared with regions with normal F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake (42% vs. 18%, respectively, p < 0.01).
Conclusions. Thus, regions with moderately reduced F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake with normal flow occur commonly in patients with ischemic left ventricular dysfunction. The majority of these regions show impaired systolic function at rest and exercise induced thallium abnormalities that are only partially reversible. These observations suggest that such regions represent an admixture of fibrotic and reversibly ischemic myocardium.

AB Objective: To examine the association of distant vision and physical function in the population of older adults.
Design: Cross-sectional and cohort study.
Participants: 5143 older residents of three communities (Established Populations for the Epidemiologic Studies of the Elderly) who were interviewed in 1988-89, including residents of two communities who were re-interviewed 15 months later (n = 3133, 97% of those eligible).
Measures: Visual acuity screening, self-reported activities of daily living and mobility, and objective physical performance measures of balance, walking, and rising from a chair.
Results: Limitations in mobility, activities of daily living, and physical performance were associated with worse visual function. In prospective analyses controlling for potential confounders, participants with severe visual impairment had 3-fold higher odds of incident mobility and activity of daily living limitations than those with acuity of 20/40 or better (P < 0.001). In prospective analyses investigating the relationship of vision with improvement in function, those with poor vision were about half as likely to improve as those with better acuity, but this relationship was only statistically significant for improvement in mobility limitations.
Conclusions: Distant visual function appears to play an important role in physical function, particularly for mobility. An intervention to improve vision in at-risk elders might preserve function and prevent disability; this warrants further investigation.

SO JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN GERIATRICS SOCIETY
LA English
DT Article
ID URINARY-INCONTINENCE; MANAGEMENT; STAFF
AB Objective: To determine the effects of different prompted voiding schedules on urinary incontinence on a continence unit (CU) and the maintenance of benefits on normal nursing units.
Design: Multiphase study with both intra- and inter-subject comparisons.
Participants: Subjects were 41 consenting incontinent nursing home residents. Based on clinical criteria, subjects were assigned to one of four treatment groups that varied as to the schedule of prompted voiding received.
Measurement: The study used chart review, Katz ADL, and MMSE. Urologic status, self-initiated toileting, urine volumes voided, and incontinence assessed by pad/pants checks were measured by research nurses. Baseline pad check data were collected on residents' normal nursing units. Residents were transferred to the CU where baseline measurement was repeated, and the effects of different prompted voiding schedules were then assessed. Indigenous staff were trained to use prompted voiding, and nurse supervisors were instructed in special procedures for enhancing maintenance of the intervention. Residents were returned to their normal units and the maintenance of improvements in continence status was assessed at 2 weeks and 3 months post-CU discharge.
Results: One of the four groups showed significant improvement on the CU in response to the 2-hour schedule; two groups improved on the less intensive 3-hour schedule (P < 0.05). Two groups maintained this improvement on their normal nursing units (P < 0.05); one group showed a nonsignificant trend toward improvement. Self-initiated toileting decreased (P < 0.05) and volume voids in an appropriate receptacle increased (P < 0.05) during training.
Conclusions: Prompted voiding is an effective treatment for urinary incontinence, and a less intensive S-hour schedule may be superior to the standard 2-hour schedule for some residents. These improvements in dryness can be maintained by normal nursing home staff if formal staff management procedures are utilized by nurse supervisors.

AB When categorical outcomes are subject to nonignorable nonresponse, log-linear models may be used to adjust for the nonresponse. The models are fitted to the data in an augmented frequency table in which one index corresponds to whether or not the subject is a respondent. The likelihood function is maximized over pseudo-observed cell frequencies with respect to this log-linear model using an EM algorithm. Each E step of the EM algorithm determines the pseudo-observed cell frequencies, and the M step yields the maximum likelihood estimators (MLE's) of these pseudo-observed cell frequencies. This approach may produce boundary estimates for the expected cell frequencies of the nonrespondents. In these cases the estimators of the log-linear model parameters are not uniquely determined and may be unstable. Following the approach of Clogg et al., we propose a Bayesian method that uses smoothing constants to adjust the pseudo-observed cell frequencies so that the solution is not on the boundary. The role of smoothing constants is similar to that of the flattening constant k in ridge regression: the use of k is intended to overcome ill-conditioned situations where correlations between the various predictors in the regression model produce unstable parameter estimates. The Bayesian estimation procedure is illustrated using data from a cross-sectional study of obesity in school-age children. Through a simulation study, we show that when fitting nonignorable nonresponse models, the mean squared errors of the expected cell frequencies obtained by the Bayesian procedure can be much smaller than those of the MLE's.

AB Hypertension is a disorder of sodium regulation that develops over time in a context of the interactions of the individual with the environment. Experimental hypertension can be induced in laboratory animals and normotensive humans via increases in sodium intake under conditions of aversive behavioral control. Readiness for avoidance contingencies includes a breathing pattern characterized by subnormal rate and normal tidal volume. Studies with humans have shown that this inhibitory breathing pattern is associated with increased plasma acidity, increased renal sodium reabsorption, increased secretion of digitalis-like hormones that inhibit sodium-pump activity, and increased vasoconstriction and blood pressure. Behavioral research is needed that defines the necessary and sufficient conditions for inhibitory breathing and its role in the development of hypertension.

AB We describe a 3 generation family with members affected with papillary renal cell carcinoma, an uncommon histological type of renal cell carcinoma. Multiple tumors of varying size were present in both kidneys of affected family members. The disorder was not linked to polymorphic markers on chromosome 3p and there was no loss of heterozygosity at loci on 3p in renal tumors. The results suggest the presence of a renal cell carcinoma gene not located on 3p that predisposes to renal cell carcinoma with a distinct histological appearance. The inherited disorder in this family appears to be different from recognized hereditary cancer syndromes.

DE STENTS AND PROSTHESES
AB PURPOSE: Elastic and plastic deformation properties of the Wallstent, Palmaz stent, and Strecker stent were evaluated quantitatively with an in vitro model simulating forces exerted by an eccentric lesion.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A miniaturized compression testing device was constructed. Stress-strain graphs were obtained for each stent, and the elastic moduli and yield points were calculated.
RESULTS: There is a 21-fold range in the elastic modulus among the Wallstent, Palmaz stent, and Strecker stents. The Palmaz stent was the only device to exhibit permanent plastic deformation. The 10-mm Palmaz stent will undergo 15% focal eccentric narrowing at 0.75 atm of pressure; the ''standard braid'' and ''less shortening braid'' 10-mm Wallstents at 0.55 and 0.25 atm, respectively, and the 10-mm tantalum Strecker stent at 0.08 atm. Overlapping of stents doubles the stiffness of the Wallstent and the Strecker stent and doubles the yield point of the Palmaz stent. The 4-9-mm Palmaz stent is 30% more resistant to deformation than the larger 8-12-mm version when expanded to identical 8-mm diameters CONCLUSIONS: The ''standard braid'' version of the 10-mm Wallstent provides 2.3-fold additional strength for resistant stenoses compared with the ''less shortening braid.'' Overlapping or nesting of stents may permit full expansion should there be incomplete expansion or recoil of a single stent. The 4-9-mm Palmaz stent is preferable from the standpoint of allowing the use of a smaller (7-F instead of 9-F) introducer sheath and also for providing superior resistance to deformation. A purely elastic stent such as the Wallstent is preferable in locations where permanent plastic deformation may occur, such as the thoracic outlet.

AB We have identified a novel common site of ecotropic viral integration called ecotropic viral integration site 3 (Evi-3) in B-cell lineage lymphomas of the AKXD recombinant inbred strains of mice. A number of virally induced pre-B-, B-, myeloid, and T-cell lymphomas were screened for viral rearrangements at Evi-3; rearrangements were found in pre-B- and B-cell lymphomas but not in other hematopoietic tumors. Genetic mapping studies localized Evi-3 to mouse chromosome 18, distinct from proto-oncogene and common viral integration loci identified previously in the mouse. Each proviral integration at Evi-3 is contained within a 200-bp region that lies inside a CpG island. All but one of the proviruses have integrated in the same 5'-to-3' transcriptional orientation. Transcripts from Evi-3 are expressed in a developmentally regulated manner in B cells. Taken together, these data suggest that Evi-3 represents a novel proto-oncogene involved in mouse B-cell lymphomas.

AB When expression of the vaccinia virus gene encoding RAP94 (a protein that is associated with the viral multisubunit RNA polymerase and confers transcriptional specificity for early promoters) was repressed, the infectious virus yield was reduced by more than 99%. Nevertheless, intermediate- and late-stage viral gene expression and formation of ultrastructurally mature, membrane-enveloped virions occurred under the nonpermissive conditions. The RAP94-deficient particles contained the viral genome, structural proteins, early transcription factor, and certain enzymes but, unlike normal virions, had low or undetectable amounts of the viral RNA polymerase, capping enzyme/termination factor, poly(A) polymerase, DNA-dependent ATPase, RNA helicase, and topoisomerase. The presence of these viral enzymes in the cytoplasm indicated that RAP94 is required for targeting a complex of functionally related proteins involved in the biosynthesis of mRNA.

AB We developed an in vitro assay for antibodies to hepatitis C virus (HCV) that bind to virions and prevent initiation of the replication cycle in susceptible cells in vitro. These antibodies therefore appear to be capable of neutralizing the virus. Using this assay and a standard inoculum of HCV of known infectivity, we have measured the antibody in serial serum samples obtained from the same chronically infected patient over 14 years following onset of his hepatitis. Such antibody was found in sera collected within 5 years of onset of hepatitis but not in later sera. In double immunoprecipitation experiments with anti-human immunoglobulin, the same sera that contained neutralizing antibody were found to contain antibody that bound to HCV to form antigen-antibody complexes immunoprecipitable with anti-human globulin. Similarly, plasma collected from this patient in 1990, 13 gears after onset of hepatitis, and which contained HCV that had diverged genetically from the 1977 strain, did not contain antibody capable of neutralizing either the 1977 or the 1990 strain of HCV. However, plasma collected a gear later (1991, 14 years after onset of hepatitis) contained neutralizing antibody to the 1990, but not the 1977, strain of HCV These results suggest that HCV does induce antivirion antibody, as measured by blocking of initiation of the replication cycle of virus in cells and by the formation of immunoprecipitable antigen-antibody complexes but that these antibodies are isolate specific and change over time. Thus, these antivirion antibodies function as neutralizing antibodies and are probably in vitro correlates of the attempt of the host to contain the emergence of neutralization-resistant variants of HCV over time.

AB Analyses of different cowpox virus (Brighten Red strain [CPV-BR]) mutants indicate that there is a minimum of three genes encoded by CPV-BR that are nonessential for virus replication in tissue culture but are involved in inhibiting the generation of an inflammatory response in the chicken embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) model. The CPV-BR-encoded anti-inflammatory genes include the gene encoding the 38-kDa protein (also called 38K, crmA, SPI-2, or VV-WR-ORF-B13R), a tumor necrosis factor receptor homolog, and an unidentified gene that maps to the right end of the CPV genome. The kinetics of triggering of an inflammatory response at the site of virus infection as well as the magnitude of the response is dependent on the virus-encoded inhibitor that is deleted. Virus yields recovered from pocks decreased in proportion to the magnitude of the inflammatory response. The deletion of these identified inhibitors of inflammation was associated,vith attenuation of the mutant viruses in mice. These data confirm the existence of multiple poxvirus-encoded host defense modifiers whose function is to block the generation of an inflammatory response at the site of virus infection, which allows enhanced virus replication and potentially facilitates virus transmission.

AB In the murine leukemia viruses (MuLVs), the Env complex is initially cleaved by a cellular protease into gp70(SU) and pre15E(TM). After the virus particle is released from the cell, the C-terminal 16 residues are removed from the cytoplasmic domain of pre15E by the viral protease, yielding the mature p15E(TM) and p2E. We have investigated the function of this cleavage by generating a Moloney MuLV mutant, termed p2E(-), in which the Env coding region terminates at the cleavage site. This mutant synthesizes only the truncated, mature form of TM rather than its extended precursor. When cells expressing this truncated Env protein are cocultivated with NIH 3T3 cells, they induce rapid cell-cell fusion. Thus, the truncated form, which is normally found in virions but not in virus-producing cells, is capable of causing membrane fusion. We conclude that the 16-residue p2E tail inhibits this activity of Env until the virus has left the cell. p2E(-) virions were found to be infectious, though with a lower specific infectivity than that of the wild type, showing that p2E does not play an essential role in the process of infection. Fusion was also observed with a chimeric p2E(-) virus in which gp70(SU) and nearly all of p15E(TM) are derived from amphotropic, rather than Moloney, MuLV. In a second mutant, an amino acid at the cleavage site was changed. The pre15E protein in this mutant is not cleaved. While the mutant Env complex is incorporated into virions, these particles have a very low specific infectivity. This result Suggests that the cleavage event is essential for infectivity, in agreement with the idea that removal of p2E activates the membrane fusion capability of the Env complex.

AB The multiplicity of attachment (MOA) of a virion in any particular time interval is the average number of cellular attachment opportunities that must be blocked to keep the virion in suspension. MOA is usually proportional to incubation time and cell concentration. Low MOA (like low multiplicity of infection) is required for reproducible assay of adsorptive blockers, and high MOA by itself can produce spurious synergies between adsorptive blockers, e.g., soluble CD4 (sCD4) and some antibodies. Poliovirus and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) data show that viral neutralization conforms quantitatively to MOA and kinetic theory over large ranges of incubation times and target cell concentrations. Extrapolating sCD4 data beyond conditions achievable in vitro to those in vivo predicts that sCD4 concentrations above the strain-specific sCD4-gp120 dissociation constant are required to block lymphoid HIV significantly, in at least semiquantitative agreement with clinical results. The extrapolation is applicable to humoral neutralization data as well. MOA analysis also indicates that although completely stopping the attachment of individual virions to cells may still be an effective therapeutic strategy against established HIV infection, merely retarding attachment probably is not. The concept of MOA holds great promise for improving the therapeutic relevance of in vitro data and can be applied to any infectious agent, to many processes that impair or enhance infection steps, and to many assay end points, not just infection.

AB Human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) is associated with a neurologic disease, HTLV-I-associated myelopathy-tropical spastic paraparesis, in which both pathological and immunological changes are observed within the central nervous system. The pathogenesis of infection in HTLV-I-associated myopathy-tropical spastic paraparesis is not well understood with respect to the cell tropism of HTLV-I and its relationship to the destruction of neural elements. In this study, neuroblastoma cells were infected with HTLV-I by coculturing with HUT-102 cells to demonstrate that cells of neuronal origin are susceptible to this retroviral infection. HTLV-I infection of the neuroblastoma cells was confirmed by verifying the presence of HTLV-I gp46 surface antigens by flow cytometry and by verifying the presence of HTLV-I pX RNA by Northern (RNA) blotting and in situ hybridization techniques. To determine whether HTLV-I infection could potentially lead to changes in cell surface recognition by the immune system, the infected neuroblastoma cells were analyzed for altered HLA expression. The HTLV-I-infected, cocultured neuroblastoma cells were shown, through cell surface antigen expression and RNA transcripts, to express HLA classes I and II. In contrast, cocultured neuroblastoma cells that did not become infected with HTLV-I expressed only HLA class I. HLA class I expression was enhanced by the cytokines tumor necrosis factor alpha and gamma interferon and in the presence of HUT-102 supernatant. In this system, expression of HLA class I and II molecules appeared to be regulated by different mechanisms. HLA class I expression was probably induced by cytokines present in the HUT-102 supernatant and was not dependent on HTLV-I infection. HLA class II expression required HTLV-I infection of the cells. The observation of HTLV-I infection leading to HLA induction in these neuroblastoma cells provides a possible mechanism for immunologic recognition of infected neuronal cells.

AB The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) external envelope glycoprotein gp120 tightly binds CD4 as its principal cellular receptor, explaining the tropism of HIV-1 for CD4(+) cells. Nevertheless, reports documenting HIV infection or HIV binding in cells lacking CD4 surface expression have raised the possibility that cellular receptors in addition to CD4 mag interact with HIV envelope. Moreover, the lymphocyte adhesion molecule LFA-1 appears to play an important role in augmenting HIV-1 viral spread and cytopathicity in vitro, although the mechanism of this function is still not completely defined. In the course of characterizing a human anti-HN gp41 monoclonal antibody, we transfected a CD4-negative, LFA-1-negative B cell line to express an anti-gp41 immunoglobulin receptor (surface immunoglobulin [sIg]/gp41). Despite acquiring the ability to bind HIV envelope, such transfected B cells could not be infected by HIV-1. These cells were not intrinsically defective for supporting HIV-1 infection, because when directed to produce surface CD4 by using retroviral constructs, they acquired the ability to replicate HIV-1. Interestingly, transfected cells expressing both surface CD4 and sIg/gp41 receptors replicated HIV much better than cells expressing only CD4. The enhancement resided specifically in sIg/gp41, because isotype-specific, anti-IgG1 antibodies directed against sIg/gp41 blocked the enhancement. These data directly establish the ability of a cell surface anti-gp41 receptor to enhance HIV-1 replication.

AB The fusion kinetics of cells expressing the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) envelope glycoprotein with CD4 target cells was continuously monitored by image-enhanced Nomarski differential interference contrast optics. The analysis of the videotape recordings showed that (i) cells made contact relatively rapidly (within minutes), in many cases by using microspikes to ''touch'' and adhere to adjoining cells; (ii) the adhered cells fused after a relatively long waiting period, which varied from 15 min to hours; (iii) the morphological changes after membrane fusion, which led to disappearance of the interface separating the two cells, were rapid (less than 1 min); and (iv) the process of syncytium formation involved subsequent fusion with other cells and not simultaneous fusion of many cells. To measure the kinetics of early stages of cell fusion, we used the recently developed very stable membrane-soluble dye, PKH26, which redistributes between labeled and unlabeled membranes after fusion but does not exchange spontaneously between membranes for prolonged periods. We found that photoactivation of this dye by illumination with green light inhibits fusion of cell membranes as indicated by the lack of dye transfer from the labeled HIV-1 envelope-expressing cells to unlabeled CD4 cells. The inhibitory effect was localized in space and time, which allowed us to develop a new assay for measuring the kinetics of membrane fusion by illuminating the cell mixture at different times after coculture. This assay has also been used to monitor the fusion kinetics of HIV-1 and recombinant vaccinia virus. The photoactivation of nonexchangeable membrane-soluble fluorescent dyes may be useful for development of new assays for measuring the kinetics of membrane fusion and could also be important in designing new antiviral approaches.

AB The phorbol ester phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) strongly inhibits human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-induced syncytium formation; it has been suggested that this inhibitory effect is due to the transient downmodulation of the surface-associated CD4 receptors by PMA (I. H. Chowdhury, Y. Koyanagi, S. Kobayashi, Y. Hamamoto, H. Yoshiyama, T. Yoshida, and N. Yamamoto, Virology 176:126-132, 1990). Surprisingly, PMA treatment of cells expressing truncated (A2.01.CD4.401) and hybrid (A2.01.CD4.CD8) CD4 molecules, which are not downmodulated (P. Bedinger, A. Moriarty, R. C. von Borstel II, N. J. Donovan, K. S. Steimer, and D. R. Littman, Nature [London] 331:162-165, 1988), inhibited their fusion with CD4(-) (12E1) cells expressing vaccinia virus-encoded HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (gp120-gp41) and with chronically HIV-1-infected H9 (MN, IIIB, or RF) cells. PMA pretreatment of T (12E1) and non-T (HeLa, U937.3, and Epstein-Barr virus-transformed B) cell lines expressing vaccinia virus-encoded CD4 also blocked fusion with 12E1 cells expressing vaccinia virus-encoded gp120-gp41. Interestingly, pretreatment of the gp120-gp41-expressing 12E1 cells with PMA did not alter their fusion with untreated CD4-expressing cells. Although the inhibitory effect of PMA was rapid and treatment for 1.5 h with 5 ng of PMA per ml was sufficient to reduce fusion by more than 50%, the recovery after treatment was slow and more than 40 h was needed before the cells regained half of their fusion potential. The inhibitory effect of PMA was blocked by staurosporine in a dose-dependent fashion, suggesting that it is mediated by protein kinase C. PMA treatment of A2.01.CD4.401 cells reduced the number of infected cells 6.7-fold, as estimated by a quantitative analysis of the HIV-1 MN infection kinetics, probably by affecting the stage of virus entry into cells. CD26 surface expression was not significantly changed by PMA treatment. We conclude that PMA inhibits the CD4-gp120-gp41-mediated fusion by modulating an accessory component(s), different from CD26, in the target CD4-expressing cells. These findings suggest a novel approach for identification of accessory molecules involved in fusion and may have implications for the development of antiviral agents.

AB Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) open reading frame 4 (ORF4) encodes a putative immediate-early protein which is homologous to herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) ICP27 on the basis of gene location and similarity in amino acid sequence. In transient expression assays, however, ORF4 and ICP27 exhibit different properties. ICP27 alone has little activity on target plasmids, but it acts as a transactivator or a transrepressor in the presence of other HSV-1 transactivators. In contrast, ORF4 directly transactivates plasmids containing homologous or heterologous promoters and has no apparent transrepressing activity. To further illuminate the functional similarities and differences between ORF4 and ICP27, Vero cell lines which express ORF4 under the inducible metallothionein promoter were constructed. Cell lines expressing functionally active ORF4 protein upregulated the expression of transfected VZV target plasmids but were unable to efficiently complement HSV-1 ICP27 mutants. These results indicate that, despite structural similarities, VZV ORF4 and HSV-1 ICP27 behave differently in transient expression assays and may play different roles in virus replication.

Here, we report the in vitro selection of viral variants with decreased sensitivity to a C-2-symmetric protease inhibitor (A-77003). We show that a single amino acid substitution (Arg to Gln or Lys) at position 8 of the protease results in a substantial decrease in the inhibitory activity of the drug on the enzyme and a comparable increase in viral resistance. These findings, when analyzed by using the three-dimensional structure of the protease drug complex, provide a strategic guide for the future development of inhibitors of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 protease.

AB Background. A short battery of physical performance tests was used to assess lower extremity function in more than 5,000 persons age 71 years and older in three communities.
Methods. Balance, gait, strength, and endurance were evaluated by examining ability to stand with the feet together in the side-by-side, semi-tandem, and tandem positions, time to walk 8 feet, and time to rise from a chair and return to the seated position 5 times.
Results. A wide distribution of performance was observed for each test. Each test and a summary performance scale, created by summing categorical rankings of performance on each test, were strongly associated with self-report of disability. Both self-report items and performance tests were independent predictors of short-term mortality and nursing home admission in multivariate analyses. However, evidence is presented that the performance tests provide information not available from self-report items. Of particular importance is the finding that in those at the high end of the functional spectrum, who reported almost no disability, the performance test Scores distinguished a gradient of risk for mortality and nursing home admission. Additionally, within subgroups with identical self-report profiles, there were systematic differences in physical performance related to age and sex.
Conclusion. This study provides evidence that performance measures can validly characterize older persons across a broad spectrum of lower extremity function. Performance and self-report measures may complement each other in providing useful information about functional status.

AB BACKGROUND: Type II pneumocytes, the producers of pulmonary surfactant, have been extensively studied during the last 20 years because of the importance of their metabolism in lung function and integrity. The ultrastructural studies of the 1970s and 1980s have shown that these cells present unique elements.
EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: In this work, we used thin-section, freeze-fracture, and fracture-flip electron microscopy techniques to obtain new information on the ultrastructural peculiarities of isolated rat type II pneumocytes, focusing our study on the intracellular membranous systems and their interrelationships and the microanatomy of their plasma membrane during secretory process.
RESULTS: In thin-sections of pneumocytes postfixed with osmium tetroxide and potassium ferricyanide, we observed that lamellar bodies (LBs) are usually connected to membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum, and seem to emerge and grow from them. Unusual connections between the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria were detected, as well as numerous ''bar-like structures'' (BLSs), most of them in the early stages of development and often generating from the nuclear membrane. Membranes of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum that closely follow the outlines of mitochondria also appear to be the origin of some BLSs. Possible transition forms, BLS --> LB, were also detected, although they were rare. New images of the surface of the pneumocytes and its changes during LB secretion showed a segregation and clearing of membrane particles at the areas of LB extrusion.
CONCLUSIONS: We propose that LBs can originate directly from membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum or from BLSs. An indirect participation of mitochondria appears possible. The plasma membrane of pneumocytes displays structural changes associated with the secretion of LBs as visualized by a redistribution of intramembrane and surface particles.

AB Interleukin 2 (IL2) receptors (IL2R's) are found on malignant cells in many human leukemias and lymphomas and are expressed by activated T cells in many autoimmune disorders. Anti-Tac(Fv), a single-chain protein composed of the variable heavy and light domains of the anti-IL2R monoclonal antibody anti-Tac, can be genetically fused to derivatives of Pseudomonas exotoxin (PE) or diphtheria toxin (DT) to form potent immunotoxins. We have shown that anti-Tac(Fv) binds to low affinity IL2R's on fresh chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) cells and can target either toxin to kill those cells. Anti-Tac(Fv)-PE40, containing the truncated form of PE without its binding domain, was cytotoxic to malignant cells from 8 of 8 ATL patients tested, with IC50's ranging from 0.11 to 5.5 ng/ ml. Anti-Tac(Fv)-PE40KDEL, a derivative of anti-Tac(Fv)-PE40 which contains the KDEL carboxyl terminus, was more cytotoxic toward cells from all ATL patients and also killed CLL cells from 8 of 16 patients. DT388-anti-Tac(Fv), containing amino acids 1-388 of DT fused to the amino terminus of anti-Tac(Fv), was less cytotoxic than anti-Tac(Fv)-PE40 on ATL cells from 4 of 5 patients, but was cytotoxic toward CLL cells from 12 of 16 patients. DT388-IL2, where IL2 is substituted for anti-Tac(Fv), is similar to DAB(389)IL2, an IL2-toxin currently in clinical trials. DT388-IL2 and DAB(389)IL2 differ by only a few amino acids and have equal cytotoxic activity. DT388-IL2 was cytotoxic toward ATL cells from all patients tested, but usually required much higher concentrations than anti-Tac(Fv)-PE40 and was poorly active against CLL cells. Thus, recombinant toxins containing anti-Tac(Fv) are cytotoxic toward freshly isolated CLL and ATL cells and will be studied further as potential therapy for IL2R-related disorders.

AB The addition of chest radiotherapy to combination chemotherapy has been shown to prolong survival of patients with limited stage small cell lung cancer. Treatment of these patients with concurrent etoposide cisplatin and chest radiotherapy has resulted in a median survival of 18-27 months with a 2-year projected actuarial survival of 36-65%. The alternation of etoposide cisplatin (EP) with vincristine, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide (VAC) has been associated with prolonged survival in a single trial of patients with limited stage small cell lung cancer treated with combined modality therapy. Timing of the alternation of the two regimens (EP and VAC) in the first, second, or fourth cycle has not been shown to be an important determinant of survival for patients in single arm studies. Three studies evaluating early (within 1 month of starting chemotherapy) versus late (3-4 months after starting chemotherapy) chest radiotherapy in concurrent regimens, have shown early chest radiotherapy is associated with longer survival in one study while the other two show no difference in survival. Further clinical research will continue to define the appropriate ways to combine chemotherapeutic agents and chest radiotherapy to maximize the survival of patients with small cell lung cancer.

AB Consideration of a range of clinical and basic studies conducted at the National Cancer Institute which explore the nature of the tumor biology of lung identify the limitations of using chemotherapy for the treatment of advanced lung cancer. No single mechanistic explanation for lung cancer's chemoresistance is apparent, although considerable information about the biology of lung cancer and some of its clinical consequences have been elucidated. In contrast to previous works from our group, this presentation will focus principally on studies of the nature of drug resistance with non-small cell cancer. An alternative combined modality strategy for lung cancer control is to focus on epithelial progression of lung cancer using local modalities while it is still confined to the bronchial epithelium. Particular high risk populations may be appropriate to determine if local tools such as photodynamic laser therapy can be effective in this application. To deal with the underlying biochemical perturbations resulting from critical exposure of the bronchial epithelium to carcinogens, rational biochemical intervention with 13 cis retinoic acid are being evaluated in several clinical trials. An evolution towards more effective lung cancer control may involve the combined modalities of laser ablation of accessible dysplastic epithelium and chronic administration of intervention agents, such as retinoids, to neutralize cancer promotion dynamics in the more remote areas of the lung epithelium.

AB Ahi-1 has previously been identified as a common helper provirus integration site on mouse Chromosome (Chr) 10 in 16% of Abelson pre-B-cell lymphomas and shown to be closely linked to the Myb protooncogene. By using long-range restriction mapping, we have mapped the Myb and Ahi-1 regions within a 120-kbp DNA fragment. The Ahi-1 region is located approximately 35 kbp downstream of the Myb gene. A further comfirmation of this finding was obtained by screening a mouse YAC library. The three positive clones obtained contained both the Myb and Ahi-1 gene sequences. To test whether provirus integration in the Ahi-1 region enhances the expression of Myb by a cis-acting mechanism, we have also examined Myb gene expression in A-MuLV-induced pre-B-lymphomas. Our data have revealed that there is no clear evidence for such activation in the tumors we have tested, indicating that provirus insertion in the Ahi-1 region is activating a novel gene, apparently involved in tumor formation.

DE COMPUTER MODELING; BIOLOGICAL SIMULATION; MODEL-DESCRIPTION LANGUAGE
AB A new language has been developed for defining simulation models for biomedical science and implemented as a preprocessor for SCoP (Simulation Control Program) written by the National Biomedical Simulation Resource. The preprocessor creates a C program by translation of statements in a model definition file. The language defines variables and equations in labelled blocks of statements which are either mathematical equations or English phrases. The availability of several kinds of equation definition blocks simplifies the description of the corresponding classes of equations. Sub-blocks are provided for some special operations, such as logical tests. Algebraic logical operators are included. Special statements called directives instruct the preprocessor to create specific variables or generate code to call specific numerical methods routines from SCoP's library. Models may be decomposed into sub-models stored on separate model definition files and automatically assembled by the preprocessor in hierarchical fashion. The model description language has been implemented in the C language by generating machine independent code with the Unix lex and yacc programs. An example of the use of the model description language, including hierarchical assembly, is illustrated by a model of the human ovulatory cycle.

AB We evaluated the quality of care for depressed elderly patients (n=2,746) hospitalized in general medical hospitals (n = 297) before or after implementation of Medicare's Prospective Payment System, focusing on whether the response to time period differed for hospitals that in the post-PPS period had no psychiatric unit, an exempt psychiatric unit, or a nonexempt unit, and by ward placement within hospitals with psychiatric units. Quality of care increased over time, and for most measures of quality of care the level of improvement did not differ significantly across different types of hospitals or by ward placement. The intensity of use of therapeutic services, such as rehabilitation, occupation, or recreation therapy, increased over time, particularly in nonexempt psychiatric units and hospitals without psychiatric units, such that these locations caught up some over time in the level of use of these services to the level for exempt psychiatric units. Several outcomes of care improved over time, and the degree of improvement in the rate of inpatient medical and psychiatric complications and other outcomes was significantly greater for psychiatric units that were exempt post-PPS than for nonexempt treatment locations.

ID MANAGEMENT; PROGRAM
AB Poor adherence to recommended regimens is a substantial problem in the clinical management of adults with asthma and other chronic diseases. Research on adherence assessment is complicated by methodological difficulties including limitations associated with the use of self-report measures. In this study, psychometric techniques were used to analyze two self-report scales for assessing adherence to recommended medication and inhaler use regimens in adults with asthma. Results indicated that the two scales had standard deviations large enough to detect variation adherence, had adequate reliability, and reflected the impact of an intervention designed to improve adherence. The results supported the usefulness of these scales for research on adherence. Additional analyses indicated that the two scales could be combined if the research goal required an overall measure of adherence.

AB The Surgery Branch of the National Cancer Institute has initiated several clinical trials involving the use of high-dose TNF in isolated limb perfusions. A phase III trial compares the three drug combination of TNF, interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and melphalan with a standard melphalan-alone perfusion in a prospective randomized trial. Another protocol escalates the dose of TNF in the perfusate to define the maximally tolerated dose that can be administered in this regional manner. A third protocol adds systemic high-dose interleukin-2 postoperatively to a TNF, IFN, and melphalan limb perfusion for patients with stage IV melanoma with the bulk of the disease in the extremity. This brief review highlights the rationale and study design of these TNF limb perfusion protocols.

AB We compared multiple isolates of the two varieties of Cryptococcus neoformans, as well as previously characterized representative isolates, for their electrophoretic karyotypes using pulsed-field electrophoresis. The two varieties could be clearly distinguished based upon the size of the smallest chromosome. The smallest chromosome for isolates of the gattii variety (serotypes B and C) was found to be 400-700 kb in size. The smallest chromosome for isolates of the neoformans variety was consistently found to be larger, approximately 770 kb in size. Isolates of the gattii variety averaged 13 chromosomes while the neoformans variety averaged 12. The size of the Cryptococcus genome was found to be approximately 23 megabases. Isolates of C. neoformans var. neoformans tended to be more conserved than those of var. gattii with regard to gene position.

AB Electrophysiological characteristics of cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were determined using the patch-clamp technique in the whole cell configuration. In isolated cells, membrane potential, capacitance, and input resistance were (Mean +/- SD) - 16.3 +/- 12.7 mV, 53.9 +/- 26 pF, and 2.3 +/- 1.3 Gn Omega respectively (N = 26); and in confluent cells - 23.6 +/- 5.5 mV, 127 +/- 59 pF, and 0.254 +/- 0.077 G Omega, respectively (N = 6). The almost 10 times higher input resistance, and smaller capacitance of isolated Versus confluent cells, indicated that the latter were in electrical communication, presumably through open gap junctions, which was confirmed by intercellular diffusion of Lucifer Yellow. Whole-cell currents of isolated cells were made up of at least three components: First, two outward currents, an early transient one with activation-inactivation kinetics and a small delayed sustained component with 6.75 +/- 4.8 and 0.73 +/- 0.089 nS conductance, respectively. Second, an inward component which was rectified and had 1.58 +/- 1.2 nS conductance. In contrast to a reported lack of voltage-gated channels in HUVEC, the above currents were voltage dependent. Inhibition of the whole-cell currents by external Ba-2, internal Cs, and other K+ blockers indicates that the three observed currents are carried by K+. This was confirmed by changes of outside K+ concentrations shifting the I-V curve intercept in the direction expected for K+-selective channels. Voltage-gated Ca2+ currents were not apparent in the whole-cell current records. HUVEC membrane potential was as low as that of microvascular cells, while inward current rectification at normal external K+ was like that in arterial endothelial cells. This mixed phenotypic expression and multipotential behavior suggests that the electrical features of HUVEC may be primarily determined by embryonic origin and the local effect of the microenvironment rather than strictly by vessel size.

AB Invasion of erythrocytes by malaria parasites involves multiple receptor-ligand interactions. To elucidate these pathways, we made use of four parasite clones with differing specificities for invasion, erythrocytes that are mutant for either glycophorin A or B, and enzyme modification of the erythrocyte surface with neuraminidase and trypsin. Neuraminidase alone abolishes invasion of two parasite clones (Dd2, FCR3/A2); these invade after trypsin treatment alone. A third clone (7G8) is unable to invade trypsin-treated erythrocytes. The fourth clone (HB3) can invade after either neuraminidase or trypsin treatment. The receptor for invasion of trypsin-treated erythrocytes was explored in two ways: treatment of trypsin-treated normal cells with neuraminidase, and trypsin treatment of glycophorin B-deficient cells. Both treatments eliminated invasion by all clones, indicating that the trypsin-independent pathway uses sialic acid and glycophorin B. To identify parasite proteins involved in the different pathways, erythrocyte binding assays were performed with soluble parasite proteins from each clone. Based on binding assays using erythrocytes that lack glycophorin A, the parasite protein known as EBA-175 appears to bind predominantly to glycophorin A. In contrast, the glycophorin B pathway does not appear to involve EBA-175, as binding of EBA-175 was similarly reduced to trypsin-treated normal and trypsin-treated glycophorin B-deficient erythrocytes. Thus, the glycophorin B-dependent, sialic acid-dependent invasion of trypsin-treated normal erythrocytes uses a different parasite ligand, indicating two or more sialic-dependent pathways for invasion. Clone 7G8, which cannot invade trypsin-treated erythrocytes, may be missing the ligand for invasion via glycophorin B. Redundancy in the invasion process may give a selective advantage to parasites that must survive in polymorphic human populations.
