The First Nationwide Live Stereo Simulcast Network (1977)

For many years, television audio has been enhanced by the simultaneous transmission of high-fidelity, stereo audio information on an FM broadcast station with the transmission of video and normal television audio information on a television broadcast station. Unfortunately, due to the lack of high-fidelity network facilities, such programs have had to be distributed on tape or, if live, confined to a single city. Now a network has been assembled for transmitting live, high-fidelity, stereo simulcasts nationwide via land lines, microwave and satellite. The network utilizes analog FM subcarriers for the audio signals, carried just above the video information on video circuits. The network has been used in conjunction with several programs transmitted by the Public Broadcasting Service, and it offers stereo simulcasts to potentially more than half of the United States television audience.
Possible regulatory roles of ATP:citrate lyase, malic enzyme, and AMP deaminase in lipid accumulation by Rhodosporidium toruloides CBS 14 (1985)

The properties of ATP:citrate lyase, malic enzyme, and AMP deaminase have been investigated in Rhodosporidium toruloides CBS 14. ATP:citrate lyase had a molecular size of 480 000 daltons and apparent K m for citrate and ATP of 0.19 mM and 0.15 mM, respectively. The enzyme was inhibited by ADP, glucose 6-phosphate, palmitoyl-CoA, and oleoyl-CoA. [Formula: see text] ions showed a 95% stimulation of activity at nonsaturating concentrations (0.1 mM) of citrate. Malic enzyme had a molecular size of 205 000 daltons and an apparent K m for malate of 0.7 mM. The enzyme was only weakly inhibited by citrate, pyruvate, oxaloacetate, and ATP but no metabolite was found which exerted a significant regulatory control over the enzyme. However this enzyme could be used as the principal, if not sole, source of NADPH needed for fatty acid biosynthesis. The role of this enzyme and the central position of malate as a key metabolite in determining how lipid accumulation could be initiated and then sustained is discussed. AMP deaminase was detected in low activities but was fourfold higher in nitrogen-limited cells. The possible role of this enzyme in degrading AMP, regulating cellular energy charge, and supplementing [Formula: see text] pools in this yeast is also discussed.
Three‐color fluorescence in situ hybridization for the simultaneous detection of multiple nucleic acid sequences (1989)

A method is described for visualizing three nucleic acid sequences simultaneously by in situ hybridization using a new blue immunofluorescent label, amino methyl coumarin acetic acid (AMCA), in combination with green and red fluorescing FITC and TRITC. Three chromosome-specific repetitive probes labeled with either amino acetyl fluorene (AAF), mercury, or biotin were hybridized simultaneously to metaphase chromosomes prepared from human blood lymphocytes or to interphase tumor nuclei. Conditions for the combined use of three immunocytochemical affinity systems as well as the optimal spectral separation of the three fluorescing labels have been determined. Three-color in situ hybridization was applied to the study of numerical chromosome abnormalities as occur in human solid tumors. Further applications of this method in prenatal diagnosis for the detection of aneuploidy of the most frequently involved autosomes, as well as for the quantification of gene copy number and mRNA expression, are discussed.
Intramolecular transposition by a synthetic IS50 (Tn5) derivative (1990)

We report the formation of deletions and inversions by intramolecular transposition of Tn5-derived mobile elements. The synthetic transposons used contained the IS50 O and I end segments and the transposase gene, a contraselectable gene encoding sucrose sensitivity (sacB), antibiotic resistance genes, and a plasmid replication origin. Both deletions and inversions were associated with loss of a 300-bp segment that is designated the vector because it is outside of the transposon. Deletions were severalfold more frequent than inversions, perhaps reflecting constraints on DNA twisting or abortive transposition. Restriction and DNA sequence analyses showed that both types of rearrangements extended from one transposon end to many different sites in target DNA. In the case of inversions, transposition generated 9-bp direct repeats of target sequences.
Isolation of a novel IS3 group insertion element and construction of an integration vector for Lactobacillus spp (1994)

An insertion sequence (IS) element from Lactobacillus johnsonii was isolated, characterized, and exploited to construct an IS-based integration vector. L. johnsonii NCK61, a high-frequency conjugal donor of bacteriocin production (Laf+) and immunity (Lafr), was transformed to erythromycin resistance (Emr) with the shuttle vector pSA3. The NCK61 conjugative functions were used to mobilize pSA3 into a Laf- Lafs EMs recipient. DNA from the Emr transconjugants transformed into Escherichia coli MC1061 yielded a resolution plasmid with the same size as that of pSA3 with a 1.5-kb insertion. The gram-positive replication region of the resolution plasmid was removed to generate a pSA3-based suicide vector (pTRK327) bearing the 1.5-kb insert of Lactobacillus origin. Plasmid pTRK327 inserted randomly into the chromosomes of both Lactobacillus gasseri ATCC 33323 and VPI 11759. No homology was detected between plasmid and total host DNAs, suggesting a Rec-independent insertion. The DNA sequence of the 1.5-kb region revealed the characteristics of an IS element (designated IS1223): a length of 1,492 bp; flanking, 25-bp, imperfect inverted repeats; and two overlapping open reading frames (ORFs). Sequence comparisons revealed 71.1% similarity, including 35.7% identity, between the deduced ORFB protein of the E. coli IS element IS150 and the putative ORFB protein encoded by the Lactobacillus IS element. A putative frameshift site was detected between the overlapping ORFs of the Lactobacillus IS element. It is proposed that, similar to IS150, IS1223 produces an active transposase via translational frameshifting between two tandem, overlapping ORFs.
Structural Characterization of the Hemagglutinin Receptor Specificity from the 2009 H1N1 Influenza Pandemic (2011)

Influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) is the viral envelope protein that mediates viral attachment to host cells and elicits membrane fusion. The HA receptor-binding specificity is a key determinant for the host range and transmissibility of influenza viruses. In human pandemics of the 20th century, the HA normally has acquired specificity for human-like receptors before widespread infection. Crystal structures of the H1 HA from the 2009 human pandemic (A/California/04/2009 [CA04]) in complex with human and avian receptor analogs reveal conserved recognition of the terminal sialic acid of the glycan ligands. However, favorable interactions beyond the sialic acid are found only for α2-6-linked glycans and are mediated by Asp190 and Asp225, which hydrogen bond with Gal-2 and GlcNAc-3. For α2-3-linked glycan receptors, no specific interactions beyond the terminal sialic acid are observed. Our structural and glycan microarray analyses, in the context of other high-resolution HA structures with α2-6- and α2-3-linked glycans, now elucidate the structural basis of receptor-binding specificity for H1 HAs in human and avian viruses and provide a structural explanation for the preference for α2-6 siaylated glycan receptors for the 2009 pandemic swine flu virus.
Term Rewriting and All That (1998)

This textbook offers a unified and self-contained introduction to the field of term rewriting. It covers all the basic material (abstract reduction systems, termination, confluence, completion, and combination problems), but also some important and closely connected subjects: universal algebra, unification theory, Gröbner bases and Buchberger's algorithm. The main algorithms are presented both informally and as programs in the functional language Standard ML (an appendix contains a quick and easy introduction to ML). Certain crucial algorithms like unification and congruence closure are covered in more depth and Pascal programs are developed. The book contains many examples and over 170 exercises. This text is also an ideal reference book for professional researchers: results that have been spread over many conference and journal articles are collected together in a unified notation, proofs of almost all theorems are provided, and each chapter closes with a guide to the literature.
Characterization of transcription initiation and termination signals of the proteinase genes of Lactococcus lactis Wg2 and enhancement of proteolysis in L. lactis (1992)

The transcription initiation signals of the prtP and prtM genes specifying the proteolytic activity of Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris Wg2 were mapped by primer extension. The strength of these promoters was analyzed with promoter-screening vector pGKV410, and they appeared to be weaker than previously isolated promoters of strain Wg2. In addition, a putative transcription terminator downstream of the prtP gene was characterized by using the terminator-screening vector pGKV259. The putative terminator decreased the transcription activity of lactococcal promoter P59 by approximately 70% in both Bacillus subtilis and L. lactis. Deletion of a part of the stem-loop structure of the terminator decreased the negative effect on transcription, indicating that the structure could indeed function as a terminator of transcription. The proteolytic activity of the lactococcal host was enhanced by placing the originally oppositely oriented prt genes in tandem and replacing the relatively weak promoters upstream of the prt genes with the stronger promoter, P32, from the chromosome of L. lactis Wg2.
The same epitope on CD22 of B lymphocytes mediates the adhesion of erythrocytes, T and B lymphocytes, neutrophils, and monocytes (1993)

CD22 is a B lineage-restricted member of the Ig superfamily that serves as an adhesion receptor expressed by mature B lymphocytes. In this study, the ability of different cell types to attach to COS cells transiently transfected with a full-length CD22 cDNA (COS-CD22) was examined to determine the cellular distribution of the ligand for CD22. T and B lymphocytes, monocytes, erythrocytes, and neutrophils formed specific rosettes with COS-CD22 cells at 4 degrees C. A panel of 33 new mAb directed against CD22 were developed to examine the regions of CD22 that mediate adhesion. Four of these mAb, HB22-7, -22, -23, and -33 (at 1 to 5 micrograms/ml) specifically blocked adhesion (75 to 95%) of all cell types to COS-CD22 cells. Each of these mAb cross-blocked each other's binding, suggesting that ligand binding occurs through a single region of CD22. These mAb also identify a region of CD22 distinct from those defined by previously described CD22 mAb. CD22-mediated adhesion of cell lines to COS-CD22 cells was independent of CD45RO and CDw75 expression, and it was not inhibited by mAb against known integrins. Although alpha-2,6-linked sialic acid expressed on the surface of COS cells did not serve as a ligand for CD22, the CD22 ligand may contain a critical sialic acid determinant, as neuraminidase treatment of all target cells eliminated CD22-mediated adhesion. CD22-mediated adhesion was Ca2+/Mg2+ independent, again suggesting that integrins were not involved. An inhibitory substance for CD22-mediated adhesion was found to be present in FCS and some ascites fluid. Analysis of CD22 mRNA and protein revealed that although multiple mRNA splice variants of CD22 mRNA can be detected, only a single protein isoform was detected on the cell surface. Therefore, although the identity of the CD22 ligands remains incompletely characterized, it is possible that a single major ligand is expressed by RBC and leukocytes, which binds to a single region of CD22.
Demethylation of the CD133 gene is frequently detected in early gastric carcinoma. (2010)

CD133 appears to be frequently demethylated in early gastric carcinomas.
Interactions of age, islet cell antibodies, insulin autoantibodies, and first-phase insulin response in predicting risk of progression to IDDM in ICA+ relatives: the ICARUS data set. Islet Cell Antibody Register Users Study (1996)

Many studies have examined the role of age, islet cell antibodies (ICAs), insulin autoantibodies (IAAs), and first-phase insulin responses (FPIRs) to an intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) as markers of risk of progression to IDDM, but a large data set is required for the analysis of the interactions between these markers. The Islet Cell Antibody Register Users Study (ICARUS) register includes 456 first-degree relatives with ICA levels &amp;gt; or = 5 JDF U confirmed in a reference laboratory, 108 of whom have progressed to IDDM in the course of prospective follow-up. Analysis of this data set confirmed the importance of the loss of FPIR, high ICA titer, coexistence of IAA, and young age in enhancing the risk of progression to the disease. The influence of any given marker of risk is modified by the presence or absence of the other markers. Cox regression analysis performed in a subset of 217 subjects for whom IVGTT, ICA, and IAA data were available showed that risk was most strongly associated with loss of FPIR; IAA and ICA titer contributed equally to the model, while age was also an independent risk determinant.
Identification of a Dominant Negative Mutant of Sprouty That Potentiates Fibroblast Growth Factor- but Not Epidermal Growth Factor-induced ERK Activation (2001)

Various mitogenic stimuli such as epidermal growth factor (EGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) activate the Ras-Raf-MEK-ERK pathway, but the regulatory mechanism of this pathway remains to be investigated. Here we found that in 293 cells, mammalian Sprouty2 and Sprouty4 were rapidly induced by EGF, FGF, and PDBu in an ERK pathway-dependent manner. Forced expression of Sprouty2 and Sprouty4 inhibited FGF-induced ERK activation but did not affect EGF- or PDBu-induced ERK activation. To examine whether endogenous Sproutys were also selective inhibitors, we generated a dominant negative form of Sprouty2 (Y55A) and Sprouty4 (Y53A) in which conserved tyrosine residues were mutated. These mutants reverted the suppressive effect of both Sprouty2 and Sprouty4 but not that of RasGAP or SPRED (Sprouty-related EVH1 domain-containing protein), another Sprouty-related Ras suppressor. Expression of dominant negative Sprouty2 and Sprouty4 enhanced and prolonged FGF- but not EGF-induced ERK activation in 293 cells. In PC12 cells, endogenous Sprouty4 was also induced by FGF. Overexpression of wild-type Sprouty4 blocked FGF-induced differentiation, whereas Y53A-Sprouty4 enhanced it. These observations suggest that endogenous Sprouty2 and Sprouty4 are physiological negative feedback regulators of growth factor-mediated ERK pathway and that there are Sprouty-sensitive and -insensitive ERK activation pathways. Finding a dominant negative form of Sproutys will facilitate the study of the molecular mechanism and physiological function of Sproutys.
Direct evidence linking expression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (92-kDa gelatinase/collagenase) to the metastatic phenotype in transformed rat embryo cells. (1994)

Members of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family have been implicated in the metastasis of tumor cells, but no direct evidence linking any given member of the MMP family to metastatic behavior has been presented. Rat embryo cells transformed by the Ha-ras and v-myc oncogenes or by Ha-ras alone are metastatic in nude mice and release the 92-kDa gelatinase/collagenase (MMP-9), whereas those transformed by Ha-ras plus the adenovirus E1A gene are not metastatic and do not release MMP-9. Here we demonstrate that MMP-9 expression can be induced in these tumorigenic but nonmetastatic rat cells by transfection with an MMP-9 expression vector. Transfection of a MMP-9 expression vector, but not control DNAs, conferred metastatic capacity on the nonmetastatic cells. The majority of colonies isolated after continued passage either in vivo or in vitro had lost the MMP-9 expression vector. However, occasional cells were isolated from metastases which retained MMP-9 expression after passage. These cells retained metastatic capacity. In contrast, cells isolated after losing MMP-9 expression also lost the ability to metastasize. These results provide direct evidence that MMP-9 has a role in tumor metastasis.
Are the Pure In Situ Breast Ductal Carcinomas and Those Associated With Invasive Carcinoma the Same? (2009)

It has been reported that pure ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast has morphologic differences from the in situ component of the invasive ductal carcinoma, as well estrogen and progesterone receptors expression according to their cytokeratin expression. However, there is no data comparing other tumor markers without using the cytokeratin expression. The objective of this study is to compare the expression of estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR), HER-2/neu, p53, and Ki67 between pure ductal in situ carcinoma (pDCIS) and the in situ component of the invasive ductal carcinoma (DCIS + IDC) of the breast, and the in situ component to the invasive component of the same tumor (DCIS + IDC). The immunohistochemistry expression of the tumor markers was performed in 45 cases of pDCIS and DCIS + IDC, yielding a total of 90 cases. Statistical analysis was carried out using Fisher exact test, having a P < 0.05, and Kappa index (kappa) to assess intratumoral concordance. In DCIS + IDC, the in situ and invasive components did not show a significant difference and Kappa index (kappa) was high (0.7-1) for positive and negative expression. ER and PR were significantly different between the pDCIS and DCIS + IDC (ER: 86.7 vs. 66.7% P = 0.04; PR: 80% vs. 55.6% P = 0.02). These findings suggest that in situ component of DCIS + IDC and pDCIS are distinct conditions.
Design, synthesis, and characterization of cyclic analogues of the iron regulatory peptide hormone hepcidin (2013)

The peptide hormone hepcidin is a key regulator of iron homeostasis in vertebrates. Hepcidin acts by binding to ferroportin, the sole known iron exporter, causing it to be internalized and thus trapping iron within the cell. Dysregulation of hepcidin concentrations is associated with a range of iron-related diseases and hepcidin-based therapeutics could be developed as candidate treatments for these diseases. However peptide-based drugs, despite their many advantages, are often limited by their susceptibility to degradation within the body. Here we describe the design, synthesis and characterization of a series of backbone cyclized hepcidin analogues as an approach to produce stable hepcidin-based leads. The cyclic peptides were shown by NMR to be structurally analogous to native hepcidin. Comparison of the stability of hepcidin with one of the cyclic analogues in human serum revealed that 77% of the cyclic peptide but only 18% of linear hepcidin remained after 24 h. The cyclic peptides were tested for their ability to induce internalization of GFP-ferroportin in vitro but were all found to be inactive. This study demonstrates that backbone cyclization of disulfide-rich peptides is a suitable approach for increasing stability. However, careful consideration of a number of factors, including location of important residues and their bioactive conformation, is required to generate biologically active lead molecules.
THE ANTIGENIC POTENCY OF EPIDEMIC INFLUENZA VIRUS FOLLOWING INACTIVATION BY ULTRAVIOLET RADIATION (1940)

A study of the antigenic potency of influenza virus inactivated by ultraviolet radiation has been made. Virus so inactivated is still capable of functioning as an immunizing agent when given to mice by the intraperitoneal route. In high concentrations inactivated virus appears to be nearly as effective as active virus but when quantitative comparisons of the immunity induced by different dilutions are made, it is seen that a hundredfold loss in immunizing capacity occurs during inactivation. Virus in suspensions prepared from the lungs of infected mice is inactivated more rapidly than virus in tissue culture medium. A standard for the comparison of vaccines of epidemic influenza virus is proposed.
Cytologic diagnosis of gliomatosis cerebri. (1981)

Malignant cells were found in the cerebrospinal fluid of an elderly woman with a clinically confusing neurologic disease that was recognized as gliomatosis cerebri at autopsy. The usefulness of cerebrospinal fluid cytology in the antemortem diagnosis of this unusual brain tumor is discussed.
Strober: Fast and Accurate Sample-Based Energy Simulation for Arbitrary RTL (2016)

This paper presents a sample-based energy simulation methodology that enables fast and accurate estimations of performance and average power for arbitrary RTL designs. Our approach uses an FPGA to simultaneously simulate the performance of an RTL design and to collect samples containing exact RTL state snapshots. Each snapshot is then replayed in gate-level simulation, resulting in a workload-specific average power estimate with confidence intervals. For arbitrary RTL and workloads, our methodology guarantees a minimum of four-orders-of-magnitude speedup over commercial CAD gate-level simulation tools and gives average energy estimates guaranteed to be within 5% of the true average energy with 99% confidence. We believe our open-source sample-based energy simulation tool Strober can not only rapidly provide ground truth for more abstract power models, but can enable productive design-space exploration early in the RTL design process.
Neurologic complications of FK 506. (1991)

FK 506 is used increasingly to prevent rejection in organ transplantation. Both experimental1-3 and clinical4,5 studies suggest that FK 506 is a more potent immunosuppressive agent than cyclosporine (CyA), and there are indications that FK 506 may also be less toxic.6 The advent of any new agent such as FK 506 promises more effective immunosuppression, but also gives rise to the need for further study of potential toxic side effects. Indeed, a report by Reyes et al7 of two patients who developed speech dysfunction while on FK 506 suggests that this agent may under certain circumstances produce adverse effects on the nervous system. Thus, more information is needed about potential nervous system disturbances that may occur in association with the clinical use of FK 506 in transplant patients. We carried out this study to identify the spectrum and frequency of neurologic disturbances that may occur in transplant patients receiving FK 506.

A preliminary open trial on interferon stimulator (SNMC) derived from Glycyrrhiza glabra in the treatment of subacute hepatic failure. (1993)

The efficacy of the interferon stimulator named Stronger Neo Minophagen-C (SNMC) derived form the plant G. glabra was studied at a dose of 40 or 100 ml daily for 30 days followed by thrice weekly intravenously for 8 wk in 18 patients of subacute hepatic failure due to viral hepatitis. The survival rate amongst these patients was 72.2 per cent, as compared to the earlier reported rate of 31.1 per cent in 98 patients who received supportive therapy (P < 0.01). Death in four of the five patients was due to associated infections leading to hepatorenal failure and terminal coma. Further studies are necessary to standardize the dose and duration of therapy with SNMC in subacute hepatic failure.
