Immunoblotting and Immunodetection
Authors: Gallagher Sean , Winston Scott E. , Fuller Steven A. , Hurrell John G.R. 
Published: November 2004

AbstractImmunoblotting (western blotting) is used to identify specific antigens recognized by polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies. This unit provides numerous protocols for all steps starting with solubilization of the protein samples, usually with SDS and reducing agents. Following solubilization, the material is separated by SDS‐PAGE and the antigens are then electrophoretically transferred to a membrane, a process that can be monitored by reversible staining or Ponceau S staining. The transferred proteins are bound to the surface of the membrane, providing access to immunodetection reagents. Any remaining binding sites are blocked by immersing the membrane in a blocking solution. After probing with the primary antibody, the membrane is washed and the antibody‐antigen complexes are identified with horseradish peroxidase (HRPO) or alkaline phosphatase enzymes coupled to the secondary anti‐IgG antibody (e.g., goat anti‐rabbit IgG) and appropriate chromogenic or luminescent substrates. Finally, membranes may be stripped and reprobed.
Patch‐Clamp Recording from Neuronal Dendrites
Authors: Poolos Nicholas P. , Jones Terrance D. 
Published: November 2004

AbstractPyramidal neurons of the central nervous system have extensively arborized apical dendrites that contribute importantly to the signaling properties of the neuron. Recent advances in electrophysiological techniques have allowed recording from neuronal dendrites. These techniques depend on using infrared optics to visualize dendritic processes in the unstained brain slice preparation, on pipet positioning with high resolution micromanipulators, and on stringent techniques for brain slice preparation that preserved healthy dendritic processes, even in tissue from mature animals. The procedures underlying these techniques are described in this unit.
Herpesvirus saimiri Transformation of Human T Lymphocytes
Authors: Fleckenstein Bernhard , Ensser Armin 
Published: November 2004

AbstractViral transformation of T cells is an effective method for obtaining large numbers of T cells that are easily maintained in the laboratory. This unit describes a method for generating antigen‐independent, virally‐transformed T cells using a T‐lymphotropic primate gamma‐2 herpesvirus, Herpesvirus saimiri (HVS; strain C488). Support protocols for preparing and titrating HSV C488 stocks and testing the functional status of transformed T cells are also included.
Assays for B Cell and Germinal Center Development
Authors: Bleesing Jack J.H. 
Published: November 2004

AbstractThe study of B cell development is highly relevant for a better understanding of human disorders in which B cells are involved. B cell development in humans appears to proceed largely along a linear pathway and occurs in three compartments: bone marrow, peripheral blood, and lymphoid tissue. The focus of this unit is on the detailed immunophenotypic evaluation of cell suspensions obtained from these compartments. These protocols are based on routine methodology, commonly used by clinical flow laboratories. Special emphasis will be placed on the approach to the study of B cell development, including current knowledge regarding immunophenotypic identification of B cell subsets. Multiparameter flow cytometry provides powerful analytical tools, as long as attention is paid to careful design and proper execution of flow cytometric acquisition and analysis. The goal of this unit is to provide a guide to the flow cytometric study of B cell development in humans.

Published: November 2004

AbstractThis appendix, developed by the staff at the Clinical Cytogenetics Laboratory at the Brigham and Women's Hospital, provides a comprehensive list of the facilities' current "macros" or standardized statements, used to facilitate reporting of cytogenetic results. These are provided as a reference for other laboratories. The statements are organized under the general categories of constitutional or acquired abnormalities and subdivided into analysis type (GTG‐banding or FISH). Multi‐specimen usage macros are included that can be applied to two or more specimen types.
Differential Staining of DNA and RNA
Authors: Darzynkiewicz Zbigniew , Juan Gloria , Srour Edward F. 
Published: November 2004

AbstractCell cycle analysis by means of differential staining of RNA and DNA permits determination of RNA content, which in turn allows one to discriminate G0 versus G1 cells and to detect cell differentiation. This unit presents two protocols for differential staining, one using the metachromatic dye acridine orange (AO) and the other a combination of pyronin Y (PY) and Hoechst 33342. Each method has its advantages and limitations, and the Hoechst‐PY method is not applicable to single‐laser instruments. A third protocol describes staining of viable cells to identify/sort hematopoietic stem cells, with an alternative that includes simultaneous immunostaining.
Overview of Flow Cytometry and Microbiology
Authors: Robinson J. Paul 
Published: November 2004

AbstractAlthough in recent years flow cytometry has become commonplace in hematology and immunology laboratories, application of the technology to microbiology remains largely unrealized. This overview presents the historical background, discusses applications in various areas of the field, and speculates on the directions of future developments. The availability of high‐quality methods should be a prime factor in convincing microbiologists that flow cytometry may have certain advantages over traditional methods and that it does indeed have much to contribute to microbiology.
Insights from genomic microarrays into structural chromosome rearrangements

Published: November 2004

AbstractArray‐based comparative genomic hybridization allows high‐resolution screening of copy number abnormalities in the genome, and becomes an increasingly important tool to detect deletions and duplications in tumor and post‐natal cytogenetics. Here we illustrate that genomic arrays can also provide novel clues regarding the structural basis of chromosome rearrangement, including instability and mechanisms of formation of ring chromosomes. We also showed that array results might impact the recurrence risks for relatives of affected individuals. Our data indicate that chromosome rearrangements frequently involve more breaks than current cytogenetic models assume. © 2004 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Published: November 2004

AbstractNemaline myopathy is a human neuromuscular disorder associated with muscle weakness, Z‐line accumulations (rods), and myofibrillar disorganization. Disease‐causing mutations have been identified in genes encoding muscle thin filament proteins: actin, nebulin, slow troponin T, βTropomyosin, and αTropomyosinslow. Skeletal muscle expresses three tropomyosin (Tm) isoforms from separate genes: αTmfast(αTm, TPM1), βTm (TPM2), and αTmslow (γTm, TPM3). In this article, we show that the level of βTm, but not αTmfast protein, is reduced in human patients with mutations in αTmslow and in a transgenic mouse model of αTmslow(Met9Arg) nemaline myopathy. A postnatal time course of Tm expression in muscles of the mice indicated that the onset of αTmslow(Met9Arg) expression coincides with the decline of βTm. Reduction of βTm levels is independent of the degree of pathology (rods) within a muscle and is detected before the onset of muscle weakness. Thus, reduction in the level of βTm represents an early clinical diagnostic marker for αTmslow‐based mutations. Examinations of tropomyosin dimer formation using either recombinant proteins or sarcomeric extracts show that the mutation reduces the formation of the preferred α/β heterodimer. We suggest this perturbation of tropomyosin isoform levels and dimer preference alters sarcomeric thin filament dynamics and contributes to muscle weakness in nemaline myopathy. Ann Neurol 2004
Successful management of cataplexy with intravenous immunoglobulins at narcolepsy onset
Authors: Dauvilliers Yves , Carlander Bertrand , François  , Touchon Jacques , Tafti Mehdi 
Published: November 2004

AbstractHypocretin/orexin deficiency appears to be a consistent feature of narcolepsy with a putative autoimmune mechanism involved. We treated four hypocretin/orexin‐deficient narcolepsy patients with intravenous immunoglobulins and assessed the efficacy by repeated polysomnographies and questionnaires. Three patients received the treatment within a few months after acute onset of narcolepsy. A clear improvement in the frequency and severity of cataplexy was obtained with a benefic effect up to 7 months without any anticataplectics drugs at follow‐up. Our findings point to the importance of early diagnosis of narcolepsy, which once treated quickly may modify its long‐term outlook. Ann Neurol 2004;56:905–908
Diskrete Metallkatalysatoren zur Copolymerisation von CO2 mit Epoxiden: Entdeckung, Reaktivität, Optimierung, Mechanismus
Authors: Coates Geoffrey W. , Moore David R. 
Published: November 2004

AbstractSynthetische Polymere werden zum weit überwiegenden Teil aus dem Rohstoff Erdöl hergestellt und sind nicht erneuerbar. Demnach besteht ein steigender Bedarf an Herstellungsverfahren für Polymere aus erneuerbaren Quellen und ein zunehmendes Interesse an biologisch abbaubaren polymeren Materialien. Polycarbonate, die aus CO2 und Epoxiden zugänglich sind, haben das Potenzial, diese Anforderungen zu erfüllen. Seit der Entdeckung von Katalysatoren zur Copolymerisation von CO2 und Epoxiden in den späten 60er Jahren durch Inoue wurde ein erheblicher Forschungsaufwand in die Entwicklung von Katalysatoren mit verbesserter Aktivität und Selektivität investiert. Dieser Aufsatz behandelt wohldefinierte Katalysatoren für die Epoxid‐CO2‐Copolymerisation und verwandte Reaktionen.
Analysis of butyltin compounds by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry: an application to the Antarctic bivalve Adamussium colbecki
Authors: Magi Emanuele , Di Carro Marina , Rivaro Paola 
Published: November 2004

AbstractA gas chromatography–mass spectrometry method was developed for the determination of butyltin compounds in biota samples. Tributyltin (TBT), dibutyltin (DBT) and monobutyltin (MBT) were extracted in methanol‐containing tropolone (0.05% w/v) and subjected to Grignard pentylation. A solid‐phase extraction procedure on florisil was optimized in order to purify the extracts. Quantitative determinations were carried out in single ion monitoring mode (TBT m/z 305, DBT and MBT m/z 319) using tripropyltin as internal standard (m/z 277). The accuracy of the whole methodology was verified on a certified reference material (CRM 477 from BCR), obtaining a recovery of about 95% for TBT and DBT and 116% for MBT.Detection limits (organotin cation per tissue dry weight) were 6.4 ng g−1 for TBT, 6.2 ng g−1 for DBT and 4.5 ng g−1 for MBT.Butyltin compounds were determined in the marine bivalve Adamussium colbecki, collected near the Italian Antarctic Base of Terra Nova Bay, during the XIII Italian Antarctic Campaign. The presence of the analytes, although at low levels, was verified in the whole tissue, gills and digestive glands; gills showed the highest concentrations, ranging from 31 to 133 ng g−1. The occurrence of butyltin compounds in the southern polar region studied suggests their ubiquitous distribution. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Published: November 2004

AbstractHigh molecular weight polystyrene prepared by emulsion polymerization was characterized by gel permeation chromatography, differential scanning calorimetry, and solution viscosity. Prepared polystyrene was used to study the energy transfer processes using Exalite 416 and Coumarin 515 dyes as the primary and the secondary dopants. Absorption and emission spectra of the dyes in polystyrene (PS) solution of concentration 2.5 g/dL in 1,4‐dioxane have been measured. Absorption spectrum of the acceptor dye, Coumarin 515 (wavelength shifter), at 403 nm matches with the emission spectrum of the donor dye, Exalite 416. Continuous wave emission spectra of these wavelength shifters have been studied by changing the concentration of Coumarin 515 dye (accepter) while keeping the Exalite 416 (donor) concentration (10−4 M) fixed in the PS solution. Energy transfer process has been discussed. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 95: 336–341, 2005
Template imprinting amphoteric polymer for the recognition of proteins
Authors: Huang Ji‐Tao , Zhang Jie , Zhang Jia‐Qi , Zheng Si‐Hua 
Published: November 2004

AbstractA selective recognizing of proteins with amphoteric polymer is essential for application in protein separations. An amphoteric polymer was synthesized by copolymerization of the two functional monomers with the crosslinker in the presence of the template proteins. After extraction of the template protein, the polymer was applied as chromatographic stationary phase, showing high resolution capacity. The molecular imprinting technique allows the formation of specific recognition sites in amphoteric polymers through the use of template protein. Protein is preferentially bound to a polymer made in the presence of the same protein. The recognition ability of an amphoteric polymer is attributed to imprinted cavities that complement proteins in shape and electrostatic interactions. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Poly(amide‐ester)s derived from dicarboxylic acid and aminoalcohol
Authors: Borriello Anna , Nicolais Luigi , Huang Samuel J. 
Published: November 2004

AbstractA series of alternating aliphatic poly(amide‐ester)s, derived from dicarboxylic acid and aminoalcohols, were obtained by polycondensation in melt. All poly(amide‐ester)s were characterized by FTIR and 1H/13C‐NMR spectroscopies. The synthesized polymers showed an inherent viscosity ranging from 0.4 to 1.0 dL g−1. Thermal analysis showed melting points within the range 100–115°C and glass transition within the range 30–60°C. Decomposition temperatures were more than 200°C higher than the corresponding melting temperatures. The polymers can thus be processed from the melt. The processed polymers were partially crystalline with good thermal stability. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 95: 362–368, 2005
Synthesis and characterization of novel low‐dielectric cyanate esters. II
Authors: Shieh Jeng‐Yueh , Yang Shih‐Peng , Wang Chun‐Shan 
Published: November 2004

AbstractA novel cyanate ester, 2,6‐dimethyl phenol dipentene cyanate ester (DPCY), was successfully synthesized from cyanogen bromide with 2,6‐dimethyl phenol dipentene novolac, which was synthesized from dipentene and 2,6‐dimethyl phenol. For the purpose of increasing the mobility of residual DPCY during the final stage of curing and achieving a complete reaction of cyanate groups, a small quantity of a monofunctional cyanate ester, 4‐tert‐butyl phenol cyanate ester, was added to DPCY to form a cyanate ester copolymer. The thermal properties of the cured cyanate ester resins were studied by dynamic mechanical analysis, dielectric analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis. These data were compared with those of the commercial bisphenol A cyanate ester system. The cured modified cyanate ester exhibited a dielectric constant of 2.59–2.50, a dissipation factor of 0.0055–0.0089, and moisture absorption of 0.91–1.17%; these values were all lower than those of the as‐cured bisphenol A dicyanate system. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Copolymerization reactivity ratios analysis of sequentially sampled data by error in variables method
Authors: Parıl Ahmet , Giz Ahmet , Çatalgil‐Giz Huceste 
Published: November 2004

AbstractA new method for estimating copolymerization reactivity ratios, by sequentially sampling the reaction medium and analyzing the samples by ultraviolet spectroscopy and gravimetry, was developed. The data were analyzed by a new error‐in‐variables method. The method was applied to solution copolymerization of the styrene (Sty)–methyl methacrylate (MMA) system in butyl acetate at 65°C, for which reactivity ratios were rMMA = 0.660 ± 0.050 and rSty = 0.309 ± 0.050. The data were also analyzed by the Kelen–Tüdös and the Extended Kelen–Tüdös methods where the methods are applicable. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 95: 393–399, 2005
The effect of pool depth on system evaluation in TREC
Authors: Keenan Sabrina , Smeaton Alan F. , Keogh Gary 
Published: November 2004

AbstractThe TREC benchmarking exercise for information retrieval (IR) experiments has provided a forum and an opportunity for IR researchers to evaluate the performance of their approaches to the IR task and has resulted in improvements in IR effectiveness. Typically, retrieval performance has been measured in terms of precision and recall, and comparisons between different IR approaches have been based on these measures. These measures are in turn dependent on the so‐called “pool depth” used to discover relevant documents. Whereas there is evidence to suggest that the pool depth size used for TREC evaluations adequately identifies the relevant documents in the entire test data collection, we consider how it affects the evaluations of individual systems. The data used comes from the Sixth TREC conference, TREC‐6. By fitting appropriate regression models we explore whether different pool depths confer advantages or disadvantages on different retrieval systems when they are compared. As a consequence of this model fitting, a pair of measures for each retrieval run, which are related to precision and recall, emerge. For each system, these give an extrapolation for the number of relevant documents the system would have been deemed to have retrieved if an indefinitely large pool size had been used, and also a measure of the sensitivity of each system to pool size. We concur that even on the basis of analyses of individual systems, the pool depth of 100 used by TREC is adequate.
