Abstract
Knowledge of population structure in a major vector species is fundamental to an understanding of malaria epidemiology and becomes crucial in the context of genetic control strategies that are being developed. Despite its epidemiological importance, the major African malaria vector Anopheles funestus has received far less attention than members of the Anopheles gambiae complex. Previous chromosomal data have shown a high degree of structuring within populations from West Africa and have led to the characterization of two chromosomal forms, “Kiribina” and “Folonzo.” In Central Africa, few data were available. We thus undertook assessment of genetic structure of An. funestus populations from Cameroon using chromosomal inversions and microsatellite markers. Microsatellite markers revealed no particular departure from panmixia within each local population and a genetic structure consistent with isolation by distance. However, cytogenetic studies demonstrated high levels of chromosomal heterogeneity, both within and between populations. Distribution of chromosomal inversions was not random and a cline of frequency was observed, according to ecotypic conditions. Strong deficiency of heterokaryotypes was found in certain localities in the transition area, indicating a subdivision of An. funestus in chromosomal forms. An. funestus microsatellite genetic markers located within the breakpoints of inversions are not differentiated in populations, whereas in An. gambiae inversions can affect gene flow at marker loci. These results are relevant to strategies for control of malaria by introduction of transgenes into populations of vectors.
Estimation of Synteny Conservation and Genome Compaction Between Pufferfish (Fugu) and Human

Published: January 2005

Background: Knowledge of the amount of gene order and synteny conservation between two species gives insights to the extent and mechanisms of divergence. The vertebrateFugu rubripes(pufferfish) has a small genome with little repetitive sequence which makes it attractive as a model genome. Genome compaction and synteny conservation between human andFuguwere studied using data from public databases.Methods: Intron length and map positions of human andFuguorthologues were compared to analyse relative genome compaction and synteny conservation respectivley. The divergence of these two genomes by genome rearrangement was simulated and the results were compared to the real data.Results: Analysis of 199 introns in 22 orthologous genes showed an eight-fold average size reduction inFugu, consistent with the ratio of total genome sizes. There was no consistent pattern relating the size reduction in individual introns or genes to gene base composition in either species. For genes that are neighbours inFugu(genes from the same cosmid or GenBank entry), 40–50% have conserved synteny with a human chromosome. This figure may be underestimated by as much as two-fold, due to problems caused by incomplete human genome sequence data and the existence of dispersed gene families. Some genes that are neighbours inFuguhave human orthologues that are several megabases and tens of genes apart. This is probably caused by small inversions or other intrachromosomal rearrangements.Conclusions: Comparison of observed data to computer simulations suggests that 4000–16 000 chromosomal rearrangements have occured sinceFuguand human shared a common ancestor, implying a faster rate of rearrangement than seen in human/mouse comparisons.
Prospective memory in 2000: Past, present, and future directions
Authors: Ellis Judi , Kvavilashvili Lia 
Published: January 2005

AbstractDuring the past four years there has been an explosion of interest in prospective memory research, culminating recently in the success of the First International Conference on Prospective Memory (July, 2000). In this paper we take the opportunity to review progress in the area by identifying some key themes and issues that arose during the conference and that are exemplified in the papers contained in this special issue. Finally, we consider future directions for research and some of the key questions that we believe all researchers in this area will need to address. Copyright © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Performance elevation of linear low‐density polyethylene highly loaded with aluminum hydroxide by the grafting of methacrylic acid to the matrix

Published: January 2005

AbstractThe mechanical and electric performances of linear low‐density polyethylene (LLDPE) highly loaded with aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)3) by the grafting of methacrylic acid (MAA) to the LLDPE matrix were studied. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that the grafting reaction occurred by melt grafting. Mechanical testing of composites of LLDPE highly loaded with Al(OH)3 showed that the strength and elongation at break were significantly improved after the grafting of MAA to the LLDPE matrix. The results of the electric tests showed similar trends. The results of scanning electron microscopy showed better decentralization of Al(OH)3 loaded in the LLDPE matrix in the tensile fractured surface and a transition layer between Al(OH)3 and the LLDPE matrix in the fractured surface after the grafting of MAA to the LLDPE matrix. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Molecular structure of metallocene catalyst Cptt2ZrCl2 and structural analysis of PE catalyzed by Cptt2ZrCl2
Authors: Yu Xiao‐Yan , Zhang Qing‐Xin , Jin Guo‐Xin , Hu Ning‐Hai 
Published: January 2005

AbstractCptt2ZrCl2 (Cptt = η5−tBu2C5H3) was synthesized by the reaction of LiCptt with ZrCl4 and characterized by X‐ray crystallographic studies. It was used as catalyst for ethylene polymerization. Structural analysis was carried out on the polyethylene (PE) catalyzed by Cptt2ZrCl2 via wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD) and small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS). The degree of crystallinity (Wc,x) was calculated by WAXD. The semiaxises of the particles (a, a, b) of PE were determined by SAXS and it could be found that the crystalline particles of PE are mainly rod shaped determined by the characteristic function v0 (r). The radius of gyration Rg, crystalline thickness Lc, the thickness of noncrystalline region La, long period L, electron‐density difference between the crystalline and noncrystalline regions ηc − ηa, and the invariant Q are determined by SAXS. The results also indicate that a transition zone exists between the traditional “two phases” with a clear dimension of 1.3 nm. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 96: 169–175, 2005
Physical properties and enzymatic hydrolysis of poly(L‐lactide)–TiO2 composites
Authors: Fukuda Norio , Tsuji Hideto 
Published: January 2005

AbstractAmorphous poly(L‐lactide) (PLLA) composite films with titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles were prepared by solution‐casting using methylene chloride as a solvent, followed by quenching from the melt. The effects of surface treatment, volume fraction, size, and crystalline type of the TiO2 particles on the mechanical properties and enzymatic hydrolysis of the composite films were investigated. The tensile strength of the PLLA composite films containing TiO2 particles except for anatase‐type ones with a mean particle size of 0.3–0.5 μm was lowered and the Young's modulus became higher with increasing the content of TiO2 particles. The tensile strength of the composite films containing anatase‐type TiO2 with a mean particle size of 0.3–0.5 μm at contents of 20 wt % or less was almost the same as that of the pure PLLA film. The enzymatic hydrolysis of PLLA matrix was accelerated by the addition of the hydrophilic anatase‐type TiO2 particles (nontreated or Al2O3 treated) with a mean particle size of 0.3–0.5 μm at relatively high contents such as 20 wt %. On the other hand, the enzymatic hydrolysis of PLLA matrix was inhibited by composite formation with the hydrophobic rutile‐type TiO2 particles (Al2O3‐stearic acid treated, or ZrO2‐Al2O3‐stearic acid treated). These results suggest that the mechanical properties and enzymatic hydrolyzability of the PLLA can be controlled by the kind and amount of the added TiO2 particles. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

High‐performance liquid chromatography separation characteristics of molecular‐imprinted poly(methacrylic acid) microparticles prepared by suspension polymerization
Authors: Kim Kayon , Kim Dukjoon 
Published: January 2005

AbstractMolecular‐imprinted poly(methacrylic acid) was synthesized with a template of retinoic acid to separate retinoid derivatives. The suspension polymerization technique was used to prepare round microparticles for high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) packing column materials. The effects of the types and amounts of the dispersing agents and surfactants on the structure and size of the prepared molecular‐imprinted‐polymer particles were investigated. The separation of retinoic acid from its derivatives was more efficient when the perfluorocarbon dispersing agent was used instead of water, as the latter reduced the binding force between the objective molecules and monomers. HPLC separation features were also affected by the size and distribution of particles loaded in the column. A higher retention volume was obtained for smaller particles with a broader size distribution. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 96: 200–212, 2005

Published: January 2005

AbstractThe commercial polymers poly(ethylene imine) (PEI), poly(ethylene imine epichlorohydrin), and poly(dimethylamine‐co‐epichlorohydrin) were purified and fractionated by ultrafiltration. Their metal‐ion‐binding properties with respect to different ligand groups and the effect of the concentration on the retention properties were investigated. The amine ligands of the polymers formed the most stable complexes with the metal ions. In general, there was an effect of the pH and polymer fraction size on the retention properties. As the pH and polymer fraction size increased, the affinity to bind metal ions also increased. PEI had the highest metal‐retention values, particularly at higher pHs, at which the amine groups were nonprotonated and could coordinate easily with the metal ions. Only Pb(II) was poorly retained. The affinity for all the metal ions, except Pb(II), increased significantly at pH 5. The metal‐ion retention decreased quickly as the filtration factor increased, except for Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cd(II), and Zn(II) ions, which were retained by over 40% at a filtration factor of 4. For other metal ions such as Pb(II), Ca(II), and Mg(II), only 10% remained bound to the polymer. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 96: 222–231, 2005
Compatibilization of polymer blends with high‐molecular‐weight peroxides

AbstractA novel approach for the compatibilization of heterogeneous polymer blends with interface‐active high‐molecular‐weight peroxides is presented. This three‐step approach includes the synthesis of an anchor peroxide copolymer, the preparation of an interface‐active, peroxide‐containing graft copolymer (precompatibilizer) on its basis, and the localization of the precompatibilizer at the interfaces of the polymer blends during reactive blending with the in situ formation of compatibilizer macromolecules. We found that the precompatibilizer incorporating polypropylene fragments compatibilized blends of polypropylene with polystyrene, polyethylene, and unsaturated polyester resin. This verified a certain universality of the approach proposed for the compatibilization of polymer blends. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 96: 232–242, 2005

Published: January 2005

AbstractIn this study, chemical modification reactions of polystyrenes with different molecular weights with maleic and acetic anhydrides in the presence of a catalyst [BF3 · O(C2H5)2] were examined. The number of polyfunctional groups bound to the polymer structure changed according to the molecular weight of the polymer, and more functional groups were bound to lower molecular weight polystyrenes. The bound functional groups and their amounts were determined with spectral and chemical analysis methods. The effects of the molecular weights of the polystyrenes on the chemical modification kinetics with maleic and acetic anhydrides in the presence of BF3 · O(C2H5)2 were examined. The kinetic parameters of the reaction and its activation energy were calculated. The higher the molecular weight of polystyrene was, the lower its rate of modification was and the greater its activation energy was; the lower the molecular weight of polystyrene was, the higher its rate of modification was and the lower its activation energy was. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: January 2005

AbstractMechanical load influences embryonic ventricular growth, morphogenesis, and function. To date, little is known regarding how the embryonic left ventricular (LV) myocardium acquires a three‐dimensional (3D) fiber architecture distribution or how altered mechanical load influences local myofiber architecture. We tested the hypothesis that altered mechanical load changes the maturation process of local 3D fiber architecture of the developing embryonic LV compact myocardium. We measured transmural myofiber angle distribution in the LV compact myocardium in Hamburger‐Hamilton stages 21, 27, 31, and 36 chick embryos during normal development or following either left atrial ligation (LAL; LV hypoplasia model) or conotruncal banding (CTB; LV hyperplasia model). The embryonic LV was stained with f‐actin and then z‐serial optical sectioning was performed using a laser confocal scanning microscope. We reconstructed local 3D myofiber images and computed local transmural myofiber angle distribution. Transmural myofiber angles in compact myocardium (in LV sagittal sections) were oriented in a circumferential direction until stage 27 (−10 to 10°). Myofibers in the outer side of compact myocardium shifted to a more longitudinal direction by stage 36 (10 to 40°), producing a transmural gradient in myofiber orientation. Developmental changes in transmural myofiber angle distribution were significantly delayed following LAL, while the changes in angle distribution were accelerated following CTB. Results suggest that mechanical load modulates the maturation process of myofiber architecture distribution in the developing LV compact myocardium. © 2005 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Overexpression of connexin43 alters the mutant phenotype of midgestational wnt‐1 null mice resulting in recovery of the midbrain and cerebellum
Authors: Melloy Patricia G. , Kusnierczyk Michelle K. , Meyer Rita A. , Lo Cecilia W. , Desmond Mary E. 
Published: January 2005

AbstractThe midbrain‐hindbrain (MHB) junction plays a key role in the patterning of the embryonic neural tube and the formation of brain structures such as the cerebellum. The mitogen wnt‐1 is critical for cerebellar development, as evidenced by the lack of MHB region and cerebellar formation in the wnt‐1 null embryo. We have generated wnt‐1 null embryos overexpressing the gap junction gene connexin43 by crossing wnt‐1 null heterozygotes into the CMV43 mouse line. We have confirmed that these mice show an increase in gap junctional communication by dye coupling analysis. Two‐thirds of wnt‐1 null CMV43+ mouse embryos at E18.5 have a cerebellum. In addition, changes in the wnt‐1 null phenotype in mouse embryos overexpressing connexin43 are observed as early as E9.5. At this stage, one‐quarter of wnt‐1 null CMV43+ embryos display extra or expanded tissue present at the MHB boundary (a wnt‐1 null enlarged phenotype). In situ hybridization studies conducted on these embryos have indicated no changes in the expression of embryonic brain positional markers in this region. We conclude from these studies that overexpression of the connexin43 gap junction restores cerebellar formation by compensating for the loss of wnt‐1. © 2005 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Development of the endoplasmic reticulum in the rodlet cell of two teleost species
Authors: Bielek Edith 
Published: January 2005

AbstractThe rodlet cell found in different tissues and the blood of teleosts is distinguished by a thick capsule and bipartite rodlets, each consisting of club‐like sac and a dense protein core. The development of its rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) was ultrastructurally investigated in gill and intestinal epithelium of trout (Salmo trutta L., Oncorhynchus kisutch). The RER showed signs of hypertrophy beginning already in immature cells. The typical vesicular appearance noted in the mature cell as well as the apical labyrinth, an accumulation of dislodged mitochondria and vesicles, derives from RER dilatations shedding their ribosomes and pervading the cytoplasm. These dilatations extend also into extracapsular protrusions formerly supposed to be nutritive. A possible role of RER in the formation of the rodlets is indicated by the close association of RER‐derived vesicles with rodlet sacs. Conspicuous undulations of the membranes of the sacs as well as the occurrence of tubules (ø = 30 nm) in the dilated RER, rodlet sacs, and along the core support the proposed hypothesis of hypertrophy. Both features signal the storage of (membrane) protein during altered conditions ranging from slowed metabolism to viral infections. The differentiation of apical microvillar projections replaced later by cytoplasmic blebbing and disruption is compatible with surplus production resulting in discharge by pressure. Together with the occasional presence of junctional complexes, these observations argue for an aberrant cell differentiation due to an unknown cause, representing an alternative to the current interpretation of the rodlet cell as a migrating secretory or leucocytic cell with a defensive function. © 2005 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
