description: Understanding epidemiology of the tick-borne pathogens requires the accurate identification of the vector ticks. Morphological analysis of ticks is difficult and often leads to misidentification. Molecular techniques offer an alternative approach of tick identification. To date, no practical and reliable molecular assays for discrimination of Euro-Asian ticks are available. Our aim was to develop such an assay for discrimination between four Euro-Asian tick species of high medical importance such as Ixodes ricinus, Ixodes persulcatus, Ixodes hexagonus, and Dermacentor reticulatus. As a basis, we have chosen conventional species-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR), a technique providing a good combination of simplicity and reliability. The DNA information available on ticks was searched for orthologous loci containing stretches of sequence dissimilarity sufficient for designing species-specific primers. ITS2 locus (second internal transcribed region of the rRNA gene cluster) was found to be the most favorable for primer design. Finally, for each of the three Ixodes species a PCR was developed amplifying only for the targeted species. One PCR amplified the entire ITS2 locus of the four species and allowed discrimination of D. reticulatus from the Ixodes species on the basis of the size difference of the respective PCR products. This PCR system was successfully tested for discrimination of the ticks at different maturation stages (larva, nymph, and adult) in engorged and unfed conditions, and therefore it may be useful for large-scale epidemiological studies. Differentiation between the closely related I. ricinus and I. persulcatus, the two species most often occurring in the tick-borne diseases in Eurasia, is of special importance.

description: During 2010–2011, we investigated interspecies transmission of partetraviruses between predators (humans and chimpanzees) and their prey (colobus monkeys) in Côte d’Ivoire. Despite widespread infection in all species investigated, no interspecies transmission could be detected by PCR and genome analysis. All sequences identified formed species- or subspecies (chimpanzee)-specific clusters, which supports a co-evolution hypothesis.

description: The zoonotic potential of paramyxoviruses is particularly demonstrated by their broad host range like the highly pathogenic Hendra and Nipah viruses originating from bats. But while so far all bat-borne paramyxoviruses have been identified in fruit bats across Africa, Australia, South America, and Asia, we describe the detection and characterization of the first paramyxoviruses in free-ranging European bats. Moreover, we examined the possible impact of paramyxovirus infection on individual animals by comparing histo-pathological findings and virological results. Organs from deceased insectivorous bats of various species were sampled in Germany and tested for paramyxovirus RNA in parallel to a histo-pathological examination. Nucleic acids of three novel paramyxoviruses were detected, two viruses in phylogenetic relationship to the recently proposed genus Jeilongvirus and one closely related to the genus Rubulavirus. Two infected animals revealed subclinical pathological changes within their kidneys, suggestive of a similar pathogenesis as the one described in fruit bats experimentally infected with Hendra virus.Our findings indicate the presence of bat-born paramyxoviruses in geographic areas free of fruit bat species and therefore emphasize a possible virus-host co-evolution in European bats. Since these novel viruses are related to the very distinct genera Rubulavirus and Jeilongvirus, a similarly broad genetic diversity among paramyxoviruses in other Microchiroptera compared to Megachiroptera can be assumed. Given that the infected bats were either found in close proximity to heavily populated human habitation or areas of intensive agricultural use, a potential risk of the emergence of zoonotic paramyxoviruses in Europe needs to be considered.

description: Background:The aim of this study was to identify dietary patterns among a representative sample of German adolescents and their associations with energy and nutrient intake, socioeconomic and lifestyle characteristics, and overweight status. Methods: In the analysis, data from the German Health Interview and Examination Survey for Children and Adolescents were used. The survey included a comprehensive dietary history interview conducted among 1272 adolescents aged 12 to 17 years. Dietary patterns were determined with principal component analysis (PCA) based on 48 food groups, for boys and girls separately. Results: Three dietary patterns among boys and two among girls were identified. Among boys, high adherence to the 'western' pattern was associated with higher age, lower socioeconomic status (SES), and lower physical activity level (PA). High adherence to the 'healthy' pattern among boys, but not among girls, was associated with higher SES, and higher PA. Among boys, high adherence to the 'traditional' pattern was associated with higher age. Among girls, high adherence to the 'traditional and western' pattern was associated with lower age, lower SES and more hours watching TV per day. The nutrient density of several vitamins and minerals, particularly of B-vitamins and calcium, increased with increasing scores of the 'healthy' pattern among both sexes. Conversely, with increasing scores of the 'western' pattern among boys, most nutrient densities decreased, particularly of fibre, beta-carotene, vitamin D, biotin and calcium. Among girls with higher scores of the 'traditional and western' pattern, nutrient densities of vitamin A, C, E, K and folate decreased. Among boys, high adherence to the 'traditional' pattern was correlated with higher densities of vitamin B12 and vitamin D and lower densities of fibre, magnesium and iron. No significant associations between dietary patterns and overweight were found. Conclusions: Higher scores for dietary patterns characterized by higher consumption of take away food, meat, confectionary and soft drinks ('western' and 'traditional and western') were found particularly among 16- to 17-years old boys and among adolescents with lower SES. These patterns were also associated with higher energy density, higher percent of energy from unsaturated fatty acids and lower percent of energy from carbohydrates as well as lower nutrient densities of several vitamins and minerals. Therefore, nutritional interventions should try to focus more on adolescents with lower SES and boys in general.
Spiegelman Studies Part 1 of 2: Maus
Creators: name: Smith, Philip
Publisher: name: Humanities Commons
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: American literature--Jewish authors

description: Art Spiegelman is one of the most-discussed creators in Comic Book Studies. His Pulitzer-winning work Maus (1980 and 1991) was, alongside The Dark Knight Returns (1986) and Watchmen (1987), the catalyst to a sea change in the commercial and critical fortunes of the alternative comic book during the mid-1980s. It has been a landmark text in critical discourses on comics ever since. The purpose of this and its companion paper is to offer a synthesis and reinvestigation of both the existing critical literature on Spiegelman as well as, perhaps most importantly, the lacunae within that literature. The aims of these two papers, then, are two-fold: firstly, to establish where we have got to and, secondly, to suggest some directions for the future of Spiegelman scholarship. This, the first of the two papers, will be devoted to the richest vein of Spiegelman scholarship, on Maus.

description: In recent years novel human respiratory disease agents have been described in South East Asia and Australia. The causative pathogens were classified as pteropine orthoreoviruses with strong phylogenetic relationship to orthoreoviruses of flying foxes inhabiting these regions. Subsequently, a zoonotic bat-to-human transmission has been assumed. We report the isolation of three novel mammalian orthoreoviruses (MRVs) from European bats, comprising bat-borne orthoreovirus outside of South East Asia and Australia and moreover detected in insectivorous bats (Microchiroptera). MRVs are well known to infect a broad range of mammals including man. Although they are associated with rather mild and clinically unapparent infections in their hosts, there is growing evidence of their ability to also induce more severe illness in dogs and man. In this study, eight out of 120 vespertilionid bats proved to be infected with one out of three novel MRV isolates, with a distinct organ tropism for the intestine. One isolate was analyzed by 454 genome sequencing. The obtained strain T3/Bat/Germany/342/08 had closest phylogenetic relationship to MRV strain T3D/04, isolated from a dog. These novel reoviruses provide a rare chance of gaining insight into possible transmission events and of tracing the evolution of bat viruses.

description: The genome of bat adenovirus 2 was sequenced and analyzed. It is similar in size (31,616 bp) to the genomes of bat adenovirus 3 and canine adenoviruses 1 and 2. These four viruses are monophyletic and share an identical genome organization, with one E3 gene and four E4 genes unique to this group among the mastadenoviruses. These findings suggest that canine adenoviruses may have originated by interspecies transfer of a vespertilionid bat adenovirus.

description: The immediate-early 1 (IE1) and IE2 proteins encoded by the major immediate-early (MIE) transcription unit of cytomegaloviruses are thought to play key roles in the switch between latent- and lytic-cycle infection. Whilst IE2 is essential for triggering the lytic cycle, the exact roles of IE1 have not been resolved. An MIE-exon 4-deleted rat cytomegalovirus (DeltaIE1) failed to synthesize the IE1 protein and did not disperse promyelocytic leukaemia bodies early post-infection, but was still capable of normal replication in fibroblast cell culture. However, DeltaIE1 had a diminished ability to infect salivary glands persistently in vivo and to reactivate from spleen explant cultures ex vivo. Quantification of viral genomes in spleens of infected animals revealed a reduced amount of DeltaIE1 virus produced during acute infection, suggesting a role for IE1 as a regulator in establishing a chronic or persistent infection, rather than in influencing the latency or reactivation processes more directly.

description: Background: Although most deaths among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are attributable to cardiovascular disease, modifiable cardiovascular risk factors appear to be inadequately treated in medical practice. The aim of this study was to describe hypertension, dyslipidemia and medical treatment of these conditions in a large population-based sample. Methods: The present analysis was based on the DIAB-CORE project, in which data from five regional population-based studies and one nationwide German study were pooled. All studies were conducted between 1997 and 2006. We assessed the frequencies of risk factors and co-morbidities, especially hypertension and dyslipidemia, in participants with and without T2D. The odds of no or insufficient treatment and the odds of pharmacotherapy were computed using multivariable logistic regression models. Types of medication regimens were described. Results: The pooled data set comprised individual data of 15, 071 participants aged 45–74 years, including 1287 (8.5%) participants with T2D. Subjects with T2D were significantly more likely to have untreated or insufficiently treated hypertension, i.e. blood pressure of > = 140/90 mmHg (OR = 1.43, 95% CI 1.26-1.61) and dyslipidemia i.e. a total cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol ratio > = 5 (OR = 1.80, 95% CI 1.59-2.04) than participants without T2D. Untreated or insufficiently treated blood pressure was observed in 48.9% of participants without T2D and in 63.6% of participants with T2D. In this latter group, 28.0% did not receive anti-hypertensive medication and 72.0% were insufficiently treated. In non-T2D participants, 28.8% had untreated or insufficiently treated dyslipidemia. Of all participants with T2D 42.5% had currently elevated lipids, 80.3% of these were untreated and 19.7% were insufficiently treated. Conclusions: Blood pressure and lipid management fall short especially in persons with T2D across Germany. The importance of sufficient risk factor control besides blood glucose monitoring in diabetes care needs to be emphasized in order to prevent cardiovascular sequelae and premature death.

description: Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are discussed as causative agents of various diseases including cancers. Expression of endogenous retroviral sequences can be induced by ultraviolet (UV) light, which is also considered as a cofactor in the development of cutaneous melanoma. Therefore, we investigated whether ultraviolet C (UVC) induces HERV-K rec and np9 expression in normal human epidermal melanocytes (NHEM) and in melanoma cell lines. NHEM and four different melanoma cell lines were irradiated with 10 and 30 mJ/cm(2) UVC, respectively. Expression of the HERV-K transcripts rec and np9 was measured 0, 6, 12, and 24 h after UV exposure by quantitative real-time PCR. In NHEM, HERV-K rec expression was significantly induced 24 h after UV exposure with 10 mJ/cm(2) UVC, whereas np9 expression transiently increased 6 and 12 h after irradiation with both UV doses. In contrast, in melanoma cell lines MEWO, G-361 and GR-M rec, and np9 expression was downregulated or remained unchanged after UV treatment. UVC irradiation induced HERV-K rec and np9 expression in NHEM, which might be an indicator of a functional role of Rec and/or Np9 in melanoma formation.

description: All attempts to induce broadly neutralising antibodies such as mAb 2F5 and mAb 4E10 targeting conserved epitopes in the membrane proximal external region (MPER) of the transmembrane envelope (TM) protein gp41 of HIV-1 failed so far. In contrast, in previous studies, immunising with the ectodomain of the TM protein p15E of different gammaretroviruses, we successfully induced neutralising antibodies. These antibodies recognised epitopes located in the fusion peptide proximal region (FPPR) and in the MPER of p15E. The epitope in the MPER of p15E corresponds to that of the mAb 4E10 in gp41 in terms of location within the protein and partial sequence homology. In order to present the MPER of gp41 (containing the 2F5 and 4E10 epitopes) membrane-associated, rats were immunised with DNA constructs corresponding (i) to the entire gp41, (ii) to the C-terminal helix of gp41 and (iii) to hybrid proteins composed of a backbone derived from p15E of a gammaretrovirus with inserted FPPR and MPER from gp41 of HIV-1. After transfection in vitro these proteins were found expressed at the cell surface and the accessibility of the 2F5 epitope was demonstrated by flow cytometry. However, DNA vaccination in rats resulted only in low titres of antibodies specific for the MPER of HIV-1, and none of the sera was neutralising.
Connecting Curriculum to Context: Our Story of Two Liberal Arts College Spanish Programs Engaged in a Changing South

description: The purpose of this article is to refl ect upon the process by which two professors in Spanish programs at small liberal arts colleges in the southeastern United States developed courses with civic engagement components that enabled our students to engage with the local Hispanic community in meaningful ways. From the outset, we focused on what we saw as an opportunity for connecting the curriculum we taught to our specific regional context, which had been shaped by new immigration patterns that brought large populations of Latin Americans to our region during the 1990s. We also explain how our interactions with local community leaders framed our work in such a way that it grew out of a dialogue about shared interests and goals. In addition to offering details about our specifi c courses, we explain the rationale behind our efforts and elucidate the unexpected impacts that the inclusion of one engagement course had on our respective curricula and other programming at our institutions, such as study abroad.

description: In recent years the safety of the yellow fever live vaccine 17D came under scrutiny. The focus was on serious adverse events after vaccinations that resemble a wild type infection with yellow fever and whose reasons are still not known. Also the exact mechanism of attenuation of the vaccine remains unknown to this day. In this context, the standards of safety and surveillance in vaccine production and administration have been discussed. Therein embodied was the demand for improved documentation of the derivation of the seed virus used for yellow fever vaccine production. So far, there was just a historical genealogy available that is based on source area and passage level. However, there is a need for a documentation based on molecular information to get better insights into the mechanisms of pathology. In this work we sequenced the whole genome of different passages of the YFV-17D strain used by Crucell Switzerland AG for vaccine production. Using all other publically available 17D full genome sequences we compared the sequence variance of all vaccine strains and oppose a phylogenetic tree based on full genome sequences to the historical genealogy.

description: In Europa besteht eine abstrakte Gefährdungslage nicht nur für konventionell durchgeführte Anschläge mit Waffen oder Sprengstoffen, sondern auch für Anschläge, bei denen biologische Agenzien eingesetzt werden. Zur Gefahrenabwehr werden daher kontinuierlich schnelle und zuverlässige Nachweisverfahren entwickelt und erprobt. Für die Anwendung im stationären Labor wurde für bioterroristisch relevante Agenzien bereits ein umfassendes Spektrum an Nachweismethoden etabliert. Für eine Vor-Ort-Detektion aus Umweltproben werden darüber hinaus von den Einsatzkräften zunehmend vergleichbar verlässliche mobile Nachweissysteme zur ersten Lagebewertung gewünscht. Basierend auf den Funktionsprinzipien können generische, immunologische und nukleinsäurebasierte Vor-Ort-Detektionsverfahren unterschieden werden. Diese sollten einfach durchzuführen, schnell, sensitiv und spezifisch sein. Kommerziell erhältliche Vor-Ort-Detektionssysteme haben systembedingt häufig eine eingeschränkte Sensitivität und sind zumeist nicht von unabhängiger Seite validiert. Darüber hinaus stellt die Vielfalt an potenziell nachzuweisenden Agenzien in komplexen Umweltproben eine besondere Herausforderung dar. Daher ist detailliertes Wissen über Einsatzbereiche und Limitation der verwendeten Testsysteme zwingend erforderlich, um erhaltene Ergebnisse zielführend bewerten und Handlungsempfehlungen ableiten zu können. Ziel dieses Artikels ist es, einen Überblick über die Messprinzipien von Vor-Ort-Detektionssystemen für bioterroristisch relevante Viren, Bakterien und Toxine sowie Vor- und Nachteile der Testsysteme zu geben. Trotz vielversprechender Entwicklungen sind derzeit erhältliche Testsysteme zur Vor-Ort-Detektion noch beschränkt aussagekräftig. Deshalb sind Expertenlabore zur gesicherten Befundung von Umweltproben weiterhin einzubeziehen.
Des anges en robe de laine. L'âme nue de Rimbaud

Subjects: subject: French literature

description: Du paletot idéal de «Ma Bohème » à la robe de laine des anges de Mystique, les tissus se dématérialisent dans la poésie de Rimbaud. La portée du champ sémantique des étoffes et des vêtements dans l'œuvre du poète de Charleville structure, avec d'autres thèmes, l'esthétique de la Voyance. Le monde s'habille, en effet, d'âme, tandis que l'âme n'aspire qu'à sa nudité essentielle. Les « cordons de soie », les « gazes grises », les « velours verts », les « bouquets de satin blanc » de Fleurs s'accompagnent aux « voiles » que l'enfant enlève à l'Aube pour se dissoudre en elle et renaître dans la vie absolue et parfaite de la poésie. L'échange entre les deux dimensions, spirituelle et physique, passe aussi à travers les tissus qui habillent le réel. Notre essai vise à démontrer la pertinence de ce thème dans la création de la nouvelle langue du jeune Voyant. Nous nous proposons donc d'analyser d'un point de vue stylistique les poèmes à notre avis plus pertinents à cet effet, pour revenir enfin à la réflexion sur la « langue » que Rimbaud a, en effet, créée.

description: Nach den Ereignissen des 11. September 2001, den Anthrax-Anschlägen in den USA und der sich anschließenden weltweiten Serie von Anthrax-Drohbriefen wurde auch in Deutschland eine im Hinblick auf mögliche bioterroristische Anschläge vorhandene Bedrohungslage in Betracht gezogen. In diesem Zusammenhang wurden an erster Stelle das bereits erwähnte Anthrax sowie Pocken als mögliche Erreger mit dem höchsten Gefährdungspotential genannt. Auf Wunsch der Länder wurde das Robert Koch-Institut (RKI) durch das Bundesministerium für Gesundheit (BMG) beauftragt, zusammen mit Vertretern der Länder und Fachgesellschaften koordinierend ein Rahmenkonzept zu erarbeiten, das die notwendigen fachlichen Vorbereitungen und Maßnahmen zur Seuchenbekämpfung nach bioterroristischen Anschlägen mit Pocken beschreiben sollte. Das Rahmenkonzept zeigt die für das seuchenhygienische Management notwendigen Handlungsschritte auf und stellt den organisatorischen, personellen und materiellen Bedarf dar. Es gibt Empfehlungen mit dem Ziel einer möglichst bundeseinheitlichen Praxis, über die die Bundesländer zu entscheiden und dabei insbesondere die unterschiedlichen Rahmenbedingungen auf Landes- und kommunaler Ebene zu berücksichtigen haben. Folgende thematische Schwerpunkte werden umfassend abgedeckt: Diagnostik, seuchenhygienische Maßnahmen, Organisation von Schutzimpfungen und Behandlung. Das Rahmenkonzept wird ergänzt durch einen umfangreichen Anhang, der neben praxisrelevanten Hilfsmitteln wie Impflisten, Fragebögen usw. Informationen zum Umgang mit Erkrankten und Kontaktpersonen sowie zum Probenversand und zur Diagnostik enthält.
