description: Proteostasis (Balch et al. (2008) Science 319: 916) refers to the biology that maintains the proteome in health and disease. Proteostasis is challenged by the most common mutation in cystic fibrosis, ΔF508, a chloride channel (the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)) that exhibits a temperature-sensitive phenotype for coupling to the coatomer complex II (COPII) transport machine for exit from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Whether rescue of export of ΔF508-CFTR at reduced temperature simply reflects energetic stabilization of the chemical fold defined by its primary sequence, or requires a unique proteostasis environment is unknown. We now show that reduced temperature (30°C) export of ΔF508 does not occur in some cell types despite efficient export of wild-type CFTR. We find ΔF508 export requires a local biological folding environment that is sensitive to heat/stress inducible factors found in some cell types suggesting that the energetic stabilization by reduced temperature is necessary, but not sufficient for export of ΔF508. Thus, the cell may require a proteostasis environment that is in part distinct from the wild-type pathway to restore ΔF508 coupling to COPII. These results are discussed in the context of the energetics of the protein fold and the potential application of small molecules to achieve a proteostasis environment favoring export of a functional form of ΔF508.
Intravital Two-Photon Microscopy for Studying the Uptake and Trafficking of Fluorescently Conjugated Molecules in Live Rodents

description: Here we describe an experimental system based on intravital two-photon microscopy for studying endocytosis in live animals. The rodent submandibular glands were chosen as model organs since they can be exposed easily, imaged without compromising their function and, furthermore, they are amenable to pharmacological and genetic manipulations. We show that the fibroblasts within the stroma of the glands readily internalize systemically injected molecules such as fluorescently conjugated dextran and bovine serum albumin, providing a robust model to study endocytosis. We dynamically image the trafficking of these probes from the early endosomes to the late endosomes and lysosomes while also visualizing homotypic fusion events between early endosomes. Finally, we demonstrate that pharmacological agents can be delivered specifically to the submandibular salivary glands thus providing a powerful tool to study the molecular machinery regulating endocytosis in a physiological context.

description: Phosphatidylinositol transfer proteins (PITPs) in yeast coordinate lipid metabolism with the activities of specific membrane trafficking pathways. The structurally unrelated metazoan-specific PITPs (mPITPs), on the other hand, are an under-investigated class of proteins. It remains unclear what biological activities mPITPs discharge, and the mechanisms by which these proteins function are also not understood. The soluble class 1 mPITPs include the PITPα and PITPβ isoforms. Of these, the β-isoforms are particularly poorly characterized. Herein, we report the use of zebrafish as a model vertebrate for the study of class 1 mPITP biological function. Zebrafish express PITPα and PITPβ-isoforms (Pitpna and Pitpnb, respectively) and a novel PITPβ-like isoform (Pitpng). Pitpnb expression is particularly robust in double cone cells of the zebrafish retina. Morpholino-mediated protein knockdown experiments demonstrate Pitpnb activity is primarily required for biogenesis/maintenance of the double cone photoreceptor cell outer segments in the developing retina. By contrast, Pitpna activity is essential for successful navigation of early developmental programs. This study reports the initial description of the zebrafish class 1 mPITP family, and the first analysis of PITPβ function in a vertebrate.

description: We here report the first comparative proteomics of purified yeast post-Golgi vesicles (PGVs). Vesicle samples isolated from PGV-accumulating sec6-4 mutants were treated with isobaric tags (iTRAQ) for subsequent quantitative tandem mass spectrometric analysis of protein content. After background subtraction, a total of 66 vesicle-associated proteins were identified, including known or assumed vesicle residents as well as a fraction not previously known to be PGV associated. Vesicles isolated from cells lacking the polarity protein Sro7p contained essentially the same catalogue of proteins but showed a reduced content of a subset of cargo proteins, in agreement with a previously shown selective role for Sro7p in cargo sorting.

Regulated Exocytosis: Novel Insights from Intravital Microscopy: Exocytosis and Intravital Microscopy
Creators: name: Weigert, Roberto

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2012

description: Regulated exocytosis is a fundamental process that every secretory cell uses to deliver molecules to the cell surface and the extracellular space by virtue of membranous carriers. This process has been extensively studied using various approaches such as biochemistry, electro-physiology, and electron microscopy. However, recent developments in time-lapse light microscopy have made possible imaging individual exocytic events hence advancing our understanding of this process at a molecular level. In this review, we focus on intravital microscopy a light microscopy-based approach that enables imaging subcellular structures in live animals, and discuss its recent application to study regulated exocytosis. Intravital microscopy has revealed differences in regulation and modality of regulated exocytosis between in vitro and in vivo model systems, unraveled novel aspects of this process that can be appreciated only in in vivo settings, and provided valuable and novel information on its molecular machinery. In conclusion, we make the case for intravital microscopy being a mature technique that can be used to investigate the molecular machinery of several intracellular events under physiological conditions.

description: We compute the polarized splitting functions in the triple collinear limit at next-to-leading order accuracy (NLO) in the strong coupling $α_{\rm S}$, for the splitting processes $γ\to q \bar{q} γ$, $γ\to q \bar{q} g$ and $g \to q \bar{q} γ$. The divergent structure of each splitting function was compared to the predicted behaviour according to Catani's formula. The results obtained in this paper are compatible with the unpolarized splitting functions computed in a previous article. Explicit results for NLO corrections are presented in the context of conventional dimensional regularization (CDR).

description: Plasmodium falciparum infection during pregnancy causes maternal anemia and low birth weight (LBW), but the effect of frequency and timing of infection on the severity of these adverse effects is unknown. We conducted a cohort study recruiting 2462 pregnant women in Malawi. Microscopy was used to diagnose malaria at enrollment, follow-up and delivery. Birth weight and maternal hemoglobin were measured at delivery. The association between timing and frequency of infection and LBW and maternal anemia was analyzed using a binomial regression model. Compared with uninfected women, (i) the risk of LBW increased with the number of malaria episodes [one episode: prevalence ratio (PR) 1.62 (95% CI 1.07–2.46); two episodes: PR 2.41 (95% CI 1.39–4.18)]; (ii) the risk for maternal anemia increased with the number of malaria episodes [one episode: PR 1.15 (95% CI 0.86–1.54); two episodes: PR 1.82 (95% CI 1.28–2.62)]; and (iii) the risk of LBW was higher with infection in the second (PR 1.71; 95% CI 1.06–2.74) than third trimester or at delivery (PR 1.55; 95% CI 0.88–2.75). The timing and frequency of P. falciparum infection during pregnancy affected the risk of LBW but only frequency of infection had an effect on the risk of maternal anemia. Identification of gestational periods when malaria causes most adverse outcomes will facilitate effective targeting of interventions.

description: The \emph{metric dimension} $\dim(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of vertices such that every vertex of $G$ is uniquely determined by its vector of distances to the chosen vertices. The \emph{zero forcing number} $Z(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a set $S$ of black vertices (whereas vertices in $V(G)\!\setminus\!S$ are colored white) such that $V(G)$ is turned black after finitely many applications of "the color-change rule": a white vertex is converted black if it is the only white neighbor of a black vertex. We show that $\dim(T) \leq Z(T)$ for a tree $T$, and that $\dim(G) \le Z(G)+1$ if $G$ is a unicyclic graph, along the way, we characterize trees $T$ attaining $\dim(T)=Z(T)$. For a general graph $G$, we introduce the "cycle rank conjecture". We conclude with a proof of $\dim(T)-2 \leq \dim(T+e) \le \dim(T)+1$ for $e \in E(\overline{T})$.

description: Di fronte alla crescita del numero delle scuole a tempo pieno e al contemporaneo scuirsi della pressione didattica causato dalla riduzione di un intero anno della scuola superiore, l'interconnessione di tutti i formatori culturali è divenuta una necessità. I conservatori e le associazioni musicali, le cui offerte tradizionalmente erano parte integrante delle attività individuali pomeridiane, lottano con il calo delle iscrizioni e con percentuali crescenti di precose abbandono dei corsi. Soltanto una sinergia più incisiva, sulla base di un reciproco riconoscimento, fra gruppi di insegnanti e i responsabili all'interno delle istituzioni culturali, per lungo tempo totalmente separati, potrà contrastare efficacemente il crescente declino della formazione musicale extrascolastica, la quale nei decenni del dopoguerra aveva portato a risultati tanto significativi.

description: Doing a double Wick rotation in the worldsheet theory of the light cone $\mathrm{AdS}_5 \times \mathrm{S}^5$ superstring results in an inequivalent, so-called mirror theory that plays a central role in the field of integrability in AdS/CFT. We show that this mirror theory can be interpreted as the light cone theory of a free string on a different background. This background is related to $\mathrm{dS}_5 \times \mathrm{H}^5$ by a double T duality, and has hidden supersymmetry. The geometry can also be extracted from an integrable deformation of the $\mathrm{AdS}_5 \times \mathrm{S}^5$ sigma model, and we prove the observed mirror duality of these deformed models at the bosonic level as a byproduct. While we focus on $\mathrm{AdS}_5 \times \mathrm{S}^5$, our results apply more generally.

description: Parvovirus B19 (B19V) is a small, non-enveloped virus that typically causes a benign flu-like illness that occurs most frequently in childhood. The virus is resistant to current viral inactivation steps used in the manufacture of anti-hemophilic factor concentrates and B19V transmission through these products has been documented. Since 2000, B19V nucleic acid test (NAT) screening of plasma pools has been implemented to further decrease the viral burden in these products, but no study has examined populations using these products to assess the impact of the screening on B19V transmission.

description: The monolayer of black phosphorous, or phosphorene, has recently emerged as a new 2D semiconductor with intriguing highly anisotropic transport properties. Existing calculations of its intrinsic phonon-limited electronic transport properties so far rely on the deformation potential approximation, which is in general not directly applicable to anisotropic materials since the deformation along one specific direction can scatter electrons traveling in all directions. We perform a first-principles calculation of the electron-phonon interaction in phosphorene based on density functional perturbation theory and Wannier interpolation. Our calculation reveals that 1) the high anisotropy provides extra phase space for electron-phonon scattering, and 2) optical phonons have appreciable contributions. Both effects cannot be captured by the deformation potential calculations.

Thrombin generation, fibrin clot formation and hemostasis
Creators: name: Campbell, Robert A.
name: Wolberg, Alisa S.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2008

description: Hemostatic clot formation entails thrombin-mediated cleavage of fibrinogen to fibrin. Previous in vitro studies have shown that the thrombin concentration present during clot formation dictates the ultimate fibrin structure. In most prior studies of fibrin structure, clotting was initiated by adding thrombin to a solution of fibrinogen; however, clot formation in vivo occurs in an environment in which the concentration of free thrombin changes over the reaction course. These changes depend on local cellular properties and available concentrations of pro- and anti-coagulants. Recent studies suggest that abnormal thrombin generation patterns produce abnormally structured clots associated with an increased risk of bleeding or thrombosis. Further studies of fibrin formation during in situ thrombin generation are needed to understand fibrin clot formation in vivo.

description: Korea is vulnerable to the volatility of global grain prices, as it is highly dependent on imported grains, apart from rice. In that regard, this study analyzes the impact of changes in imported grain prices on the domestic market and the effect of supply shortages. The analysis results using the input-output tables are: a 10% hike in imported grain prices increases domestic consumer prices by 0.04%, while a 10% rise in the exchange rate raises consumer prices by 1.83%. The sector taking the hit the most is milling, followed by the starch, sugar, feed, and livestock industries. Our findings also show that the coefficient of supply shortages in imported grains is significant in wheat and coarse grains with 3.19 and soybeans with 2.13. The feed, livestock, vegetable oil, and food service industries are likely to see their production decrease in the case of supply bottlenecks in imported wheat, coarse grain, and soybeans.

description: GEHEP, established in 2009, is an independent, multi-institutional, international consortium of early career hematology specialists in the field of hemophilia and other inherited bleeding disorders. The main objective of the group, whose members practice at institutions in North America, Europe, and South Africa, is to advance hemophilia care by providing a forum for mentored collaborative research, developing programs for improving clinical care, and promoting academic career development of junior faculty. GEHEP members collect and document anonymized data on intra- and interinstitutional differences in patient populations, diagnosis, and treatment in the field of hemophilia and other bleeding disorders. To facilitate sharing of aggregated data among GEHEP members, a global protocol was developed and approved by most members’ local institutional review board. Current GEHEP research initiatives are varied, encompassing work in pediatric and adult patients. GEHEP members have presented research at international meetings on the initiation of prophylaxis in children, use of immune tolerance induction in adults, and prevalence of acute coronary syndromes in older patients with hemophilia. The main goal of the continuing work of GEHEP is to advance the care of patients with hemophilia worldwide.

description: We present a theory for the number fluctuations of a quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) dipolar Bose-Einstein condensate measured with finite resolution cells. We show that when the dipoles are tilted to have a component parallel to the plane of the trap, the number fluctuations become anisotropic, i.e. depend on the in-plane orientation of the measurement cell. We develop analytic results for the quantum and thermal fluctuations applicable to the cell sizes accessible in experiments. We show that as cell size is increased the thermodynamic fluctuation result is approached much more slowly than in condensates with short range interactions, so experiments would not require high numerical aperture imaging to observe the predicted effect.

description: This paper focuses on the process for adapting existing legacy computerized tailored intervention (CTI) programs and implications for future development of CTI to ensure that interventions can be disseminated and implemented in different settings. A significant amount of work is required to adapt existing CTI for new research applications and public health interventions. Most new CTI are still developed from scratch, with minimal re-use of software or message content, even when there are considerable overlaps in functionality. This is largely a function of the substantial technical, organizational, and content-based barriers to adapting and disseminating CTI. CTI developers should thus consider dissemination and re-use early in the design phase of their systems. This is not intended to be a step-by-step guide on how to adopt or disseminate research-tested CTI, but rather a discussion that highlights issues to be considered for adapting and disseminating evidence-based CTI.

description: This study aims to analyze the impact of out-of-pocket payments that food service users make for organic and local food and examine whether government subsidies can help use more organic and local food. For our research, we conducted surveys targeting 350 child daycare centers and kindergartens and 200 social welfare facilities for the youth, disabled, and elderly. The survey results showed that the higher the reliance on parents’ payments in the daycare centers and kindergartens, the higher the proportion of organic/local food usage. In the social welfare facilities, however, the use of organic and local food decreased as the proportion of beneficiaries’ out-of-pocket payments increased, indicating that it is challenging to operate public meal services without the burden on the beneficiaries due to the poor financial condition of the facilities. Therefore, the government should look into the financial stability of facilities and provide continuous support for the use of organic and local food so that public catering services function as a policy tool to benefit the public, achieve agricultural sustainability and environmental values, and revitalize the local economy.

description: The magnetic phase diagram of the tetragonal Ho$_2$RhIn$_8$ compound has similar features to many related systems, revealing a zero magnetic field AF1 and a field-induced AF2 phases. Details of the magnetic order in the AF2 phase were not reported yet for any of the related compounds. In addition, only the Ho$_2$RhIn$_8$ phase diagram contains a small region of the incommensurate zero-field AF3 phase. We have performed a number of neutron diffraction experiments on single crystals of Ho$_2$RhIn$_8$ using several diffractometers including experiments in both horizontal and vertical magnetic fields up to 4 T. We present details of the magnetic structures in all magnetic phases of the rich phase diagram of Ho$_2$RhIn$_8$. The Ho magnetic moments point along the tetragonal $c$ axis in every phase. The ground-state AF1 phase is characterized by propagation vector $\textbf{k}$ = (1/2, 0, 0). The more complex ferrimagnetic AF2 phase is described by four propagation vectors $\textbf{k}_{0}$ = (0, 0, 0), $\textbf{k}_{1}$ = (1/2, 0, 0), $\textbf{k}_{2}$ = (0, 1/2, 1/2), $\textbf{k}_{3}$ = (1/2, 1/2, 1/2). The magnetic structure in the AF3 phase is incommensurate with $\textbf{k}_{AF3}$ = (0.5, $δ$, 0). Our results are consistent with theoretical calculations based on crystal field theory.

description: We present new near-infrared (NIR) light-curve templates for fundamental (FU, JHK) and first overtone (FO, J) Cepheids. The new templates together with PL and PW relations provide Cepheid distances from single-epoch observations with a precision only limited by the intrinsic accuracy of the method adopted. The templates rely on a very large set of Galactic and Magellanic Clouds (MCs) Cepheids (FU,~600; FO,~200) with well sampled NIR (IRSF data) and optical (V,I; OGLE data) light curves. To properly trace the change in the shape of the light curve as a function of period, we split the sample of calibrating Cepheids into 10 different period bins. The templates for the first time cover FO Cepheids and the FU short-period Cepheids (P<5 days). Moreover, the zero-point phase is anchored to the phase of the mean magnitude along the rising branch. The new approach has several advantages in sampling the light curve of bump Cepheids when compared with the phase of maximum light. We also provide new estimates of the NIR-to-optical amplitude ratios for FU and FO Cepheids. We perform detailed analytical fits using both 7th-order Fourier series and multi-Gaussian periodic functions. The latter are characterized by a smaller number of free parameters (9 vs 15). Mean NIR magnitudes based on the new templates are up to 80% more accurate than single-epoch measurements and up to 50% more accurate than mean magnitudes based on previous templates, with typical associated uncertainties ranging from 0.015 mag (J) to 0.019 mag (K). Moreover, the errors on individual distances of Small MC Cepheids derived from NIR PW relations, are essentially reduced to the intrinsic scatter of the adopted relations. Thus, the new templates are the ultimate tool to estimate precise Cepheid distances from NIR single-epoch observations, which can be adopted to derive the 3D structure of the MCs.

description: The complexity of dementia care combined with the lack of care experience and external support systems creates unique burdens for the caregiver. This article describes the initial findings from the Scott & White Family Caregiver Program (FCP), the Resources for Enhancing Alzheimer's Caregiver Health (REACH II) intervention adapted for a healthcare setting. The FCP targeted one large hospital and one large ambulatory internal medicine primary care clinic within the Scott & White system. The 6-month program provided support and skills training tailored to the specific needs of caregivers based on their level of risk. At follow-up, the overall risk score, caregiver burden, and patient problem behaviors were significantly decreased and care recipient safety significantly increased. All caregivers reported that the information provided was helpful. This model successfully translated REACH II into an integrated healthcare setting and significantly reduced risks associated with dementia caregiving.

description: We consider a system consisting of $5$ dimensional gravity with a negative cosmological constant coupled to a massless scalar, the dilaton. We construct a black brane solution which arises when the dilaton satisfies linearly varying boundary conditions in the asymptotically $AdS_5$ region. The geometry of this black brane breaks rotational symmetry while preserving translational invariance and corresponds to an anisotropic phase of the system. Close to extremality, where the anisotropy is big compared to the temperature, some components of the viscosity tensor become parametrically small compared to the entropy density. We study the quasi normal modes in considerable detail and find no instability close to extremality. We also obtain the equations for fluid mechanics for an anisotropic driven system in general, working upto first order in the derivative expansion for the stress tensor, and identify additional transport coefficients which appear in the constitutive relation. For the fluid of interest we find that the parametrically small viscosity can result in a very small force of friction, when the fluid is enclosed between appropriately oriented parallel plates moving with a relative velocity.

description: Pharmacological and interventional pain medicine treatments are emphasized in the routine treatment of chronic pain despite strong evidence for the efficacy and safety of behavioral approaches. Most medical professionals have not incorporated behavioral pain treatments into their practices. Internet-based interventions have the potential to increase clinical use of these treatments. We discuss the strengths and weaknesses of current Internet-based behavioral pain management interventions, focusing on three broad intervention categories: therapist-guided interventions, unguided (automated) interventions, and pain-relevant applications for mobile platforms. Examples of each category are discussed, revealing a high degree of variation in approaches, user interfaces, and components as well as variability in the degree to which these interventions have been subjected to empirical testing. Finally, we highlight key issues for research and clinical implementation, with the goal of advancing this field so that it can meet its potential to increase access to evidence-based behavioral medicine treatments for chronic pain.

description: Scaling and sustaining educational innovations is a common problem in the learning sciences. Professional development resources around educational innovations that are personalized to appeal to the needs and motivations of different types of faculty offer a possible solution. The method of developing personas to represent key types of users is commonly employed in user-interface design and can be used to produce personalized resources. Personas are fictional named archetypes of users encompassing generalizations of their key characteristics and goals that emerge from interviews. This method is especially powerful because personas succinctly package information into the form of a person, who is easily understood and reasoned about. Herein we describe the creation of a set of personas focusing on the needs and motivations of physics faculty around assessment and teaching. We present the personas, a discussion of how they inform our design and how the method can be used more broadly.

description: This text contemplates the difficulties of French local currencies andthe pathways to improvement, in the event of greater sustainability atthe local level. After a panorama of the French local currencies, andthe observation of a disappointment from a quantity viewpoint, thepaper discusses requirements and improvements for a local currency(LC) to contribute to a greater sustainability at the local level. Itpresents the notion of the relevant territory for a local currency. Itthen discusses a few crucial points of improvement and thedifficulties they face: the role of local governments as majorpartners; the need for employees in order to constitute a permanentbasis for the scheme’s activity and development; the need for andigital counterpart of the currency; the need for financingactivities. The conditions for a ripple effect are eventuallydiscussed.

description: The objective of this study is to identify sociodemographics of older adults enrolled in a nationally disseminated evidence-based fall risk reduction program, describe different delivery sites, and examine personal and site characteristics associated with intervention adherence. Data were analyzed from 6,922 older adults enrolled in A Matter of Balance/Volunteer Lay Leader (AMOB/VLL) model between 2006 and 2009. Intervention dosage was measured by workshop attendance. Logistic regression analyses examined factors associated with attendance levels. Intervention dosage differed by sociodemographic and delivery site characteristics. Patterns of intervention dose significantly differed between Hispanic and non-Hispanic White participants. Those with less education and living in rural areas were more likely to receive adequate program doses. Although senior services agencies offered the most programs, intervention adherence was more likely in nonaging service sites. Findings may help program administrators better understand and minimize attrition issues within their AMOB/VLL workshops.
