Abstract
The combined intervention of isoflavone intake and walking exercise over 1 year in postmenopausal Japanese women exhibited a trend for a greater effect on prevention of bone loss at the total hip and Ward's triangle regions.
Introduction: The additive effects of isoflavones and exercise on bone and lipid metabolism have been shown in estrogen-deficient animals. In this study, we determined the effects of isoflavone intake, walking exercise, and their interaction on bone, fat mass, and lipid metabolism over 1 year in postmenopausal Japanese women.
Materials and Methods: A total of 136 postmenopausal women at &lt;5 years after the onset of menopause were randomly assigned to four groups: (1) placebo, (2) walking (45 minutes/day, 3 days/week) with placebo, (3) isoflavone intake (75 mg of isoflavone conjugates/day), and (4) combination of isoflavone plus walking. BMD, fat mass, serum lipid, and serum and urinary isoflavone concentrations were assessed.
Results: A significant main effect of isoflavone on the reduction in trunk fat mass was obtained at 12 months. Significant main effects of walking on the reduction in fat mass in the whole body and the trunk were observed at 3, 6, and 12 months and that in the legs and arms at 6 and 12 months. Serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol concentration significantly increased by 12 months after the walking and the combined intervention. After 12 months, a significant main effect of isoflavone on BMD was observed only at Ward's triangle. Walking prevented bone loss at the total hip and the Ward's triangle to significant degrees. The effect of the combined intervention on BMD at total hip and Ward's triangle regions was greater than that of either alone. No significant interaction was observed between isoflavone and walking in any measurements recorded during the study.
Conclusions: Our study suggest that combined intervention of 75 mg/day of isoflavone intake and walking exercise 3 times/week for 1 year showed a trend for a greater effect on BMD at total hip and Ward's triangle regions than either alone. Intervention with isoflavone in postmenopausal Japanese women showed a modest effect on BMD compared with those in Westerners. Further studies over longer treatment duration that include assessment of BMD at various regions are necessary to ascertain the clinical significance of the combined intervention of isoflavone plus walking in postmenopausal women.
Optimization of the Shape of Magnetic Field Concentrators to Improve the Sensitivity of Hall Sensors (Optimierung von Konzentratoren für magnetische Felder für die Steigerung der Empfindlichkeit bei Hallsensoren)
Authors: Leroy Paul , Coillot Christophe , Roux Alain , Chanteur Gérard 
Published: May 2006

Summary
This paper describes the design of a set of two magnetic concentrators which can be used to intensify the magnetic field in the active region of magnetic sensors, such as Hall sensors. Literature provides many examples of magnetic amplification, but magnetic gains never exceed 100 typically [1, 2]. We demonstrate that larger magnetic field amplification (∼1000 and even higher) can be achieved by implementing an appropriate geometry. Magnetic field amplification can even exceed the theoretical value fixed by the relative permeability of the material. Thus the effective sensitivity of Hall sensors can be improved by at least three orders of magnitude by implementing them inside especially tailored magnetic concentrators; noise-equivalent magnetic induction spectral density (NEMI spectral density) down to 10 pT/√Hz should be reached, using a good conditioning electronics. We present a formulation of our design process as an optimization problem and use it to find an optimum shape for the magnetic concentrators in a simple case.

Published: May 2006

Summary
We describe an eddy current sensor based on the induction balance principle for the buried conductive tag recognition. The objective is to identify the various types of ground pipes without excavation. The principle is to associate to each pipe type a characteristic tag incorporating conductive elements. We present the changes made to the first sensor generation with the aim of view to improve its performances. We also describe the sensor modeling and its optimization by the replacement of the flat coils by turned coils. The other principal modifications are the integration of a numerical lock in detection and the use of an audio amplifier to improve the excitation signal. We show the results of methods used to recognize the two coding systems. We conclude by a summary of the improvements obtained and suggestions for future work.
Results of First Experiments on Application of Electrical Stimulation of Blue Catfish Testes for Production of Channel Catfish × Blue Catfish Hybrids
Authors: Green Christopher C , Kelly Anita M , Chatakondi Nagaraj 
Published: May 2006

Abstract
Commercial interest in production of F1 hybrids of female channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus × male blue catfish I. furcatus has increased dramatically. However, current production methods are unable to provide large numbers of hybrid fingerlings for commercial producers. Increasing the hatch rates of hybrid embryos will aid in making large-scale hybrid production a feasible option for the catfish industry. The objectives of this study were to determine (1) whether electrical stimulation of excised testes of Rio Grande and D&B strain blue catfish (Kincaid et al. 2000) produce changes in the motility rank, motility time, and concentration of spermatozoa and (2) whether differences exist between the fertilization rates for spermatozoa obtained from electrically stimulated testes and those from nonstimulated testes for the two strains. Testes were excised from the males of both strains and one testis was subjected to electrical stimulation. Spermatozoa were removed, counted, checked for motility ranking, and used to fertilize eggs. Electrical stimulation did not significantly affect motility rank, motility time, or spermatozoa concentration for either strain. The fertilization of channel catfish eggs was significantly higher for spermatozoa from electrically stimulated Rio Grande strain testes (93.0 ± 3.5%) than for those from nonstimulated testes (76.2 ± 16.8%). The fertilization rate was not significantly higher for spermatozoa from electrically stimulated testes in D&B strain blue catfish. Hatch rate was not significantly different for eggs fertilized with spermatozoa from electrically stimulated testes in either strain. Modulation of voltage, amperage, and cycle times with larger sample sizes should be investigated further to determine whether a range of effects exists among the parameters measured and the intensity of stimulation.
Detection of Protein‐Protein Interactions by Coprecipitation
Authors: Elion Elaine A. 
Published: May 2006

AbstractCoprecipitation of proteins from whole‐cell extracts is a valuable approach to testing for physical interactions between proteins of interest. When a precipitating antibody is used, this method is referred to as co‐immunoprecipitation. Coprecipitation can be used to study interactions between known proteins and as a means of identifying components of a complex. This unit describes basic approaches to immunoprecipitating tagged proteins from whole‐cell extracts. The extract is prepared under nondenaturing conditions, the protein of interest is precipitated, and the precipitate is tested for a second specifically associated protein. The approach can be used for native or epitope‐tagged proteins for which antibodies are available, or for recombinant proteins that bind with high affinity to a molecule that can be coupled to a solid‐phase matrix. An associated protein is detected by separating the precipitated proteins by SDS‐PAGE and immunoblotting with a second antibody that recognizes the putative associated protein.
Immunophenotyping of Plasma Cells
Authors: Rawstron Andy C. 
Published: May 2006

AbstractPlasma cell enumeration and immunophenotyping has been shown to be of value in predicting the outcome for patients with myeloma. Detection of abnormal plasma cells at a leukocyte level >0.01% at the end of therapy predicts early relapse. Although clonally related populations at varying stages of differentiation are reported to be present in myeloma, only the CD138+ fraction has been shown to directly correlate with the outcome. In addition, the plasma cell immunophenotype in monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) is reported to correlate with the risk of progression to myeloma. This protocol provides a four‐color flow cytometry method for enumeration and classification of plasma cells in both diagnostic and post‐treatment samples. Plasma cells are identified by strong expression of CD38 and CD138. Neoplastic plasma cells are separated from their normal counterparts by aberrant expression of CD19 and other relevant markers in combination with intracellular immunoglobulin light chain restriction.

Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic insulin‐glucose analysis for differentiation of beta‐cell function: an 18 month follow‐up study in pre‐pubertal lean and obese children
Authors: Gupta N. , Hoffman R.P. , Veng‐Pedersen P. 
Published: May 2006

AbstractThe objective of this study was to analyse the PK/PD of the insulin–glucose physiology for glucose stimulated insulin secretion from beta‐cells between lean and obese pre‐pubertal children in an 18 month study. The subjects were divided into two groups of six children according to their body mass index (BMI). Each subject was assessed on four occasions: on admission and at 6, 12 and 18 month follow‐ups. Each time, 23 blood samples were obtained from the subjects according to the frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test involving a bolus of 250 mg/kg dextrose. For the obese group, a significant difference (p <0.05) was found in the rate constant for the first phase secretion of insulin between the time of admission (1.73 ± 0.372 min−1) and the 18 month follow‐up (3.08 ± 0.391 min−1). Additionally, the lean vs obese group comparisons showed a higher first phase insulin secretion rate constant (p <0.05) in the obese group on admission (1.73 ± 0.372 vs 1.29 ± 0.278 min−1), 6 months (1.96 ± 0.317 vs 1.32 ± 0.444 min−1), 12 months (2.33 ± 0.621 vs 1.57 ± 0.435 min−1) and 18 months (3.08 ± 0.391 vs 1.83 ± 0.587 min−1). The proposed PK/PD model for the insulin secretion from beta‐cells is able to identify kinetic differences in first phase insulin secretion between lean and obese non‐diabetic pre‐pubertal children in this 18 month follow‐up study.
