Localization of the Transmembrane 4 Superfamily (TM4SF) Member PETA-3 (CD151) in Normal Human Tissues: Comparison with CD9, CD63, and α5β1 Integrin (1997)

It has recently been shown that several members of the tetraspan superfamily, including CD9 and CD63, associate with each other and with beta1 integrins. In this study, we examined the distribution of a recently identified tetraspan, PETA-3 (CD151), and of CD9, CD63, alpha5beta1, and the integrin beta1 chain in normal human tissues by the indirect immunoperoxidase and alkaline phosphatase-anti-alkaline phosphatase techniques. PETA-3 showed a broad distribution and was expressed by endothelium, epithelium, Schwann cells, and dendritic cells and by skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle. Expression in skin was mostly restricted to the basal cells of the epidermis and was downregulated on differentiation. In the small intestine, PETA-3 was expressed by crypt and villous enterocytes with a mostly basolateral distribution, but was not detectable on the brush border. CD9 was expressed on the plasma membrane of enterocytes in crypts and at the bases of the villi whereas CD63 demonstrated a unique granular appearance concentrated in the apical cytoplasm below the brush border. The findings of this study show co-localization of PETA-3 with CD9, CD63, alpha5beta1, and beta1 in particular tissues, demonstrating that tetraspan/integrin complexes may occur. However, the lack of co-localization of these antigens in other tissues also implies distinct roles for these molecules.
Ligand Engineering of Polymer Nanocomposites: From the Simple to the Complex (2014)

One key to optimizing the performance of polymer nanocomposites for high-tech applications is surface ligand engineering of the nanofiller, which has been used to either tune the nanofiller morphology or introduce additional functionalities. Ligand engineering can be relatively simple such as a single population of short molecules on the nanoparticle surface designed for matrix compatibility. It can also have complexity that includes bimodal (or multimodal) populations of ligands that enable relatively independent control of enthalpic and entropic interactions between the nanofiller and matrix as well as introduce additional functionality and dynamic control. In this Spotlight on Applications, we provide a brief review into the use of brush ligands to tune the thermodynamic interactions between nanofiller and matrix and then focus on the potential for surface ligand engineering to create exciting nanocomposites properties for optoelectronic and dielectric applications.
Elongated Multiple Electronic Cascade and Cyclization Spacer Systems in Activatible Anticancer Prodrugs for Enhanced Drug Release (2001)

The design and synthesis of several novel elongated self-elimination spacer systems for application in prodrugs is described. These elongated spacer systems can be incorporated between a cleavable specifier and the parent drug. Naphthalene- and biphenyl-containing spacers were synthesized but did not eliminate. Prodrugs of the anticancer agents doxorubicin and paclitaxel are reported that contain two or three electronic cascade spacers. A novel catalytic application of HOBt was found for the synthesis of N-aryl carbamates through reacting a 4-nitrophenyl carbonate with an aniline derivative, to connect the 1,6-elimination spacers via a carbamate linkage. In addition, a double spacer-containing paclitaxel prodrug was synthesized, comprising a 1,6-elimination spacer and a bis-amine linker connected to paclitaxel via a 2'-carbamate linkage. Prodrugs in which the novel spacer systems were incorporated between a specific tripeptide specifier and the parent drug doxorubicin or paclitaxel proved to be significantly faster activated by plasmin in comparison with prodrugs containing conventional spacer systems. It is expected that the generally applicable novel spacer systems reported herein will contribute to future development of improved enzymatically activated prodrugs.
Substrate Selectivity of (tBu-Allyl)Co(CO)3during Thermal Atomic Layer Deposition of Cobalt (2012)

Tertbutylallylcobalttricarbonyl (tBu-AllylCo(CO)3) is shown to have strong substrate selectivity during atomic layer deposition of metallic cobalt. The interaction of tBu-AllylCo(CO)3 with SiO2 surfaces, where hydroxyl groups would normally provide more active reaction sites for nucleation during typical ALD processes, is thermodynamically disfavored, resulting in no chemical reaction on the surface at a deposition temperature of 140 °C. On the other hand, the precursor reacts strongly with H-terminated Si surfaces (H/Si), depositing ∼1 ML of cobalt after the first pulse by forming Si–Co metallic bonds. This remarkable substrate selectivity of tBu-AllylCo(CO)3 is due to an ALD nucleation reaction process paralleling a catalytic hydrogenation, which requires a coreactant that acts as a hydrogen donor rather than a source of bare protons. The chemical specificity demonstrated in this work suggests a new paradigm for developing selective ALD precursors. Namely, selectivity can be achieved by tailoring the ligands in the coordination sphere to obtain structural analogues to reaction intermediates for catalytic transformations that exhibit the desired chemical discrimination.
Bronchodilating activity of oral clenbuterol in asthmatic children after single administration of different dosages (1987)

The dose-response activity of clenbuterol, a new long-acting beta 2-agonist, was evaluated in 12 children aged 5 to 11 years with moderate to severe asthma. The study was a double-blind cross-over comparison of three oral dose levels: 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 micrograms/kg and placebo all in the form of syrup. Pulmonary function, heart rate, blood pressure, and tremor were evaluated at 30, 60, 90, and 120 min, then hourly for 8 hr, following the ingestion of the drug. The bronchodilating effect of clenbuterol, evaluated as percentage changes in expiratory flow rates was significantly different from placebo. The overall fall-off in the effect of 1.0 micrograms/kg and 1.5 micrograms/kg doses after 8 hr was small. The results of the 1.0 micrograms/kg dose often overlapped those of the 1.5 micrograms/kg dose, suggesting that a single 1.0 micrograms/kg dose of clenbuterol is most advisable in children, assuring the most favorable risk/benefit ratio. Even the highest dose of clenbuterol caused only a marginal increase in tremor, not statistically different from that induced by placebo.

Sustained protection by acadesine against ischemia- and reperfusion-induced injury. Studies in the transplanted rat heart. (1992)

Acadesine can afford sustained functional protection against injury during extended periods of ischemia and reperfusion. We present evidence that the beneficial effect of acadesine may be mediated by two different components, with one operative during ischemia and early reperfusion and the other acting later in the reperfusion period.
Apoptosis: A Functional Paradigm for Programmed Plant Cell Death Induced by a Host-Selective Phytotoxin and Invoked during Development. (1996)

The host-selective AAL toxins secreted by Alternaria alternata f sp lycopersici are primary chemical determinants in the Alternaria stem canker disease of tomato. The AAL toxins are members of a new class of sphinganine analog mycotoxins that cause cell death in both animals and plants. Here, we report detection of stereotypic hallmarks of apoptosis during cell death induced by these toxins in tomato. DNA ladders were observed during cell death in toxin-treated tomato protoplasts and leaflets. The intensity of the DNA ladders was enhanced by Ca2+ and inhibited by Zn2+. The progressive delineation of fragmented DNA into distinct bodies, coincident with the appearance of DNA ladders, also was observed during death of toxin-treated tomato protoplasts. In situ analysis of cells dying during development in both onion root caps and tomato leaf tracheary elements revealed DNA fragmentation localized to the dying cells as well as the additional formation of apoptotic-like bodies in sloughing root cap cells. We conclude that the fundamental elements of apoptosis, as characterized in animals, are conserved in plants. The apoptotic process may be expressed during some developmental transitions and is the functional process by which symptomatic lesions are formed in the Alternaria stem canker disease of tomato. Sphinganine analog mycotoxins may be used to characterize further signaling pathways leading to apoptosis in plants.
Time‐resolved fluorescence studies on mutants of the dihydrolipoyl transacetylase (E2) component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex from Azotobacter vinelandii (1990)

Fluorescence anisotropy decays were measured for the wild-type dihydrolipoyl transacetylase (E2) component of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex from Azotobacter vinelandii and E. coli and for E2-mutants from A. vinelandii in which the alanine-proline-rich sequence between the binding domain and the catalytic domain is partially or completely deleted. In both E2-mutants the rotational mobility of the lipoyl domain and the overall activity after reconstitution of the complex are significantly decreased indicating the important role of the deleted sequence for the movement of the lipoyl domain and the transfer of substrates between the different active sites within the complex.
Synthesis and orally macrofilaricidal evaluation of niclosamide lymphotropic prodrugs. (1994)

The development of new macrofilaricidal drugs is described following a strategy for the promotion of the lymphatic transport of anthelminthic drugs by-passing the liver. The selected compound was niclosamide (CAS 50-65-7) which is very effective in vitro against infective larvae but has no significant antifilarial activity when orally administered at 200 mumol/kg. To estimate the interest of such an approach, the synthesis of 5 prodrugs was achieved in a first stage. The intrinsic antifilarial activity and the delayed effect of these compounds were evaluated in vitro. Then, in vivo tests were performed with Molinema dessetae infective larvae to select the best ligands. The prodrug V 1,3-dihexadecanamido-2-[4-chloro(2- chloro-4-nitroanilinocarbonyl)phenyloxy-carbonylpropanoyl oxy]propane (having a diamide function) was responsible for an in vitro delayed effect and an orally in vivo activity (200 mumol/kg when administered in a single dose). The biological improvement of this easily micellizable prodrug which is stable to intestinal enzymes in respect to Niclosamide confirms such a strategy.
Radiofrequency thermal ablation: 3D MR-histology correlation for localization of cell death in MR lesion images (2005)

Solid tumors are being treated using radiofrequency (RF) thermal ablation under interventional MRI image guidance. We are investigating the ability of MR to accurately predict the region of cell death by comparing MR thermal lesion images to tissue damage as seen histologically. We developed a methodology using a three-dimensional computer registration. An open MR imaging system was used to guide an RF ablation electrode into rabbit thigh muscles, and acquire in vivo postablation MR volumes. After MR and histology images were registered with an accuracy of 1.32/spl plusmn/0.39 mm (mean/spl plusmn/SD), we compared a boundary of necrosis identified in histology with the outer boundary of the hyperintense rim in MR images. For 14 T2-weighted MR images, the absolute distance between boundaries was 0.96/spl plusmn/0.34 mm. Similar correlations were obtained from experiments with rabbits sacrificed four days postablation. This is good evidence that during ablation treatments, MR images can accurately identify the necrotic region.
A Euryarchaeal Lysyl-tRNA Synthetase: Resemblance to Class I Synthetases (1997)

The sequencing of euryarchaeal genomes has suggested that the essential protein lysyl-transfer RNA (tRNA) synthetase (LysRS) is absent from such organisms. However, a single 62-kilodalton protein with canonical LysRS activity was purified from Methanococcus maripaludis, and the gene that encodes this protein was cloned. The predicted amino acid sequence of M. maripaludis LysRS is similar to open reading frames of unassigned function in both Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum and Methanococcus jannaschii but is unrelated to canonical LysRS proteins reported in eubacteria, eukaryotes, and the crenarchaeote Sulfolobus solfataricus. The presence of amino acid motifs characteristic of the Rossmann dinucleotide-binding domain identifies M. maripaludis LysRS as a class I aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase, in contrast to the known examples of this enzyme, which are class II synthetases. These data question the concept that the classification of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases does not vary throughout living systems.

Photodisruption in the Human Cornea as a Function of Laser Pulse Width (1997)

Corneal tissue photodisruption thresholds demonstrate pulse width dependence. At pulse widths less than 10 ps and with fluences near the breakdown threshold, ablations are maximally precise and efficient. These findings suggest optimal laser parameters for corneal surgery.
A Hough transform for detecting the location and orientation of three-dimensional surfaces via color encoded spots (1998)

Video-rate three-dimensional (3-D) acquisition is desirable, in particular for capturing the mouth's shape when modeling the vocal tract. In a new structured light technique, scenes are illuminated by an array of circular spots which are color encoded to resolve spatial ambiguity. The position and shape of the imaged spots depend on the location and orientation of the illuminated 3-D surface. We present a novel 3-D Hough transform (HT) to detect 3-D surface location and orientation via the imaged spots, with voting constraints applied to maximize potential accuracy. This new technique is demonstrated to successfully extract the 3-D data for a moving face from images acquired at video-rate.

Adhesion between Amniotic Membrane and Retinal Tissue and Inhibition of Amniotic Membrane on Cell Transformation (2003)

Purpose : Tissue adhesion rate between the amniotic membrane and the retinal tissue and histological change of the retinal tissue was studied. And the inhibition effect of amniotic membrane on the retinal pigment epithelial cell transformation was evaluated. Methods : The human amniotic membrane and the porcine retinal tissue flap were used. The sensory retinal flap and the retinal pigment epithelial flap were placed on the amniotic membrane in culture disk. Tissue adhesion was evaluated and graded at 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 weeks. Glial fibrillary acidic protein immunohistochemical staining and Masson's trichrome staining were performed for histologic study. Transmitted electron microscope examination was performed to study the stabilization effects of amniotic membrane. Results : Tissue adhesion rates showed no significant change until the 4th week, but tend to decrease in the 5th week of organotissue culture. Tissue adhesion rate was higher in the chorion-side than in the amnion-side culture (p=0.000) and was higher in the retinal pigment epithelial than in the retinal flap (p=0.000). The inhibition of cell transformation was higher in the chorion-side culture than in the amnion-side culture. Conclusions : Amniotic membrane can be used for prevention of proliferative vitreoretinopathy by its mechanical barrier effect and cell stability effect.
Relation Between the Tyrosine Content of Various Wools and Their Content of a Class of Proteins Rich in Tyrosine and Glycine (1971)

Wool samples can vary in their content of tyrosine by as much as 60%. It has been shown that this is due to variation in their content of a heterogeneous group of proteins which are very rich in tyrosine and glycine (about 1 residue in 5 and 1 residue in 3 respectively). Certain Lincoln wools and some felting lustre mutant Merino wools appear to contain very little of these proteins whereas fine Merino wools may contain as much as 12% by weight of them. As this is too much protein to be accommodated in the cuticular membranes, the currently held site of origin of hightyrosine proteins, it is concluded that at least some of these proteins must be accommodated in an unknown region of the cortex.
Selective interaction between nonribosomal peptide synthetases is facilitated by short communication-mediating domains (2004)

Nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPSs) catalyze the formation of structurally diverse and biologically important peptides. Given their modular organization, NRPSs provide an enormous potential for biocombinatorial approaches to generate novel bioactive compounds. Crucial for the exploitation of this potential is a profound knowledge of the intermolecular communication between partner NRPSs. The overall goal of this study was to understand the basis of protein–protein communication that facilitates the selective interaction in these multienzyme complexes. On this account, we studied the relevance of short regions at the termini of the NRPSs tyrocidine (Tyc) synthetases TycA, TycB, and TycC, constituting the Tyc biosynthetic template. In vitro and in vivo investigations of C-terminal deletion mutants of the initiation module TycA provided evidence for the existence and impact of short communication-mediating (COM) domains. Their decisive role in protein–protein recognition was subsequently proven by means of COM domain-swapping experiments. Substitution of the terminal COM domains between the donor modules TycA and TycB3, as well as between the acceptor modules TycB1 and TycC1, clearly demonstrated that matching pairs of COM domains are both necessary and sufficient for the establishment of communication between partner NRPSs in trans. These results corroborated the generality of COM domains, which were subsequently exploited to induce crosstalk, even between NRPSs derived from different biosynthetic systems. In conclusion, COM domains represent interesting tools for biocombinatorial approaches, which, for example, could be used for the generation of innovative natural product derivatives.
Determination of methotrexate in untreated body fluids by micellar liquid chromatography (1989)

A fast and sensitive method for determination of the antineoplastic drug methotrexate in untreated serum and urine is described. Reversed-phase liquid chromatography with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micellar mobile phase has been used with direct sample injection. Changes in mobile phase variables such as SDS concentration and/or pH profoundly affected drug retention. Recovery was quantitative and the detection limit (90 nM for a 20 microL sample size) was below the range normally monitored. Multichannel UV detection provided strong evidence regarding peak purity and peak identity.
