A novel Ly6C/Ly6G‐based strategy to analyze the mouse splenic myeloid compartment
Authors: Rose Shawn , Misharin Alexander , Perlman Harris 
Published: December 2011

AbstractCurrently, there is no standardized panel for immunophenotyping myeloid cells in mouse spleen using flow cytometry. Markers such as CD11b, CD11c, F4/80, Gr‐1, Ly6C, and Ly6G have long been used to identify various splenic cell myeloid populations. Flow cytometry and fluorescence‐activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis demonstrated that Ly6G/Ly6C markers are superior to Gr‐1 for identifying splenic neutrophils, eosinophils, and subsets of monocytes/macrophages. Moreover, these experiments showed that F4/80 is not required for identifying these myeloid subsets and that many of the commercially available preparations of anti‐F4/80 antibodies stain poorly for this antigen in spleen. Taken together, we have now developed an informative flow cytometry panel that can be combined with other cell markers to further delineate subpopulations of mouse splenic myeloid cells. This panel will be highly useful to investigators in the flow cytometry field, as there is a critical need to standardize the analysis of myeloid cell subsets. © 2011 International Society for Advancement of Cytometry
Pleiotropic effects of the bone morphogenetic proteins on development of the enteric nervous system
Authors: Chalazonitis Alcmène , Kessler John A. 
Published: December 2011

AbstractFormation of the enteric nervous system (ENS) from migratory neural crest‐derived cells that colonize the primordial gut involves a complex interplay among different signaling molecules. The bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), specifically BMP2 and BMP4, play a particularly important role in virtually every stage of gut and ENS development. BMP signaling helps to pattern both the anterior–posterior axis and the radial axis of the gut prior to colonization by migratory crest progenitor cells. BMP signaling then helps regulate the migration of enteric neural crest‐derived precursors as they colonize the fetal gut and form ganglia. BMP2 and ‐4 promote differentiation of enteric neurons in early fetal ENS development and glia at later stages. A major role for BMP signaling in the ENS is regulation of responses to other growth factors. Thus BMP signaling first regulates neurogenesis by modulating responses to GDNF and later gliogenesis through its effects on GGF‐2 responses. Furthermore, BMPs promote growth factor dependency for survival of ENS neurons (on NT‐3) and glia (on GGF‐2) by inducing TrkC (neurons) and ErbB3 (glia). BMP signaling limits total neuron numbers, favoring the differentiation of later born neuronal phenotypes at the expense of earlier born ones thus influencing the neuronal composition of the ENS and the glia/neuron ratio. BMP2 and ‐4 also promote gangliogenesis via modification of neural cell adhesion molecules and promote differentiation of the circular and then longitudinal smooth muscles. Disruption of BMP signaling leads to defects in the gut and in ENS function commensurate with these complex developmental roles. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Develop Neurobiol 72: 843–856, 2012
Urinary concentrations of ethyl glucuronide and ethyl sulfate as thresholds to determine potential ethanol‐induced alteration of steroid profiles
Authors: Thieme D. , Große J. , Keller L. , Graw M. 
Published: December 2011

AbstractThe suppression of steroid biotransformation resulting in a decrease of the major urinary metabolites – androsterone and etiocholanolone – and the elevation of testosterone/epitestosterone (T/E) ratios following ethanol administration is well described. At least the latter parameter T/E represents an important indicator for endogenous steroid abuse in doping control.The quantitative correlation between ethanol consumption markers and steroid profile alteration was evaluated, aiming to differentiate between permitted ethanol administration and potential steroid abuse. Steroid profiles, ethanol, ethyl glucuronide (EtG), and sulfate (EtS) were quantified after administration of ethanol (intended maximum ethanol concentration in blood was 1 mg/g) to 21 male and 15 female volunteers.EtG concentrations in urine (corrected by either specific gravity or creatinine concentration) were found to be most suitable for quantitative evaluations. Gender specific urinary EtG concentrations of 48 ug/ml (men) and 15.5 ug/ml (women) may be considered as useful thresholds for a potential ethanol‐induced suppression of steroids biotransformation.

Theory of mind in bulimia nervosa
Authors: Kenyon Martha , Samarawickrema Nelum , DeJong Hannah , Van den Eynde Frederique , Startup Helen , Lavender Anna , Goodman‐Smith Emily , Schmidt Ulrike 
Published: December 2011

AbstractObjective:This study aimed to investigate theory of mind (ToM) in individuals with bulimia nervosa (BN), an area neglected by empirical research despite social functioning difficulties in this disorder and evidence of ToM deficits in people with anorexia nervosa (AN).Method:ToM was assessed in 48 BN and 34 Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified BN‐type (EDNOS‐BN) outpatients and 57 healthy controls (HCs) using the Reading the Mind in the Eyes and the Reading the Mind in the Films (RMF), an ecologically valid task novel to BN research.Results:Overall performance in BN and EDNOS‐BN groups was equivalent to HCs on both tasks. Individuals with BN had enhanced negative emotion recognition on the RMF.Discussion:Individuals with AN and BN have distinct socio‐cognitive profiles. Further research into social cognition is required to establish the link between interpersonal difficulties and psychopathology in people with BN. © 2011 by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
