CYTOTOXICITY MEDIATED BY SOLUBLE ANTIGEN AND LYMPHOCYTES IN DELAYED HYPERSENSITIVITY (1968)

The cytopathic effect of lymph node cells from tuberculin-sensitized rats on rat embryo fibroblasts in the presence of PPD was not enhanced by admixture of normal (nonsensitized) lymph node cells. Preincubation studies showed that this in vitro response is initiated by the reaction of lymphocytes with specific antigen, beginning within 30 min, rather than uptake of antigen by the fibroblasts. The supernatant fluids from suspensions of sensitized cells incubated with PPD for 17 hr or more possessed cytotoxic activity. The target fibroblasts showed a marked increase in acid phosphatase content within 48 hr after the addition of sensitized lymph node cells and antigen.
Salmonellosis Associated with Marijuana (1982)

In January and February of 1981, 85 cases of enteritis caused by Salmonella muenchen were reported from Ohio, Michigan, Georgia, and Alabama. Initial investigation failed to implicate a food source as a common vehicle, but in Michigan 76 per cent of the patients, in contrast to 21 per cent of the control subjects, admitted personal or household exposure to marijuana (P less than 0.001, relative risk = 20). Marijuana samples obtained from patients' households contained as many as 10(7) S. muenchen per gram. The outbreak-related isolates of S. muenchen were sensitive to all antibiotics and were phenotypically indistinguishable from other S. muenchen. Plasmid fingerprinting, however, revealed that all isolates related to marijuana exposure contained two low-molecular-weight plasmids (3.1 and 7.4 megadaltons), which were absent in control strains. Plasmid analysis of the isolates showed that the outbreaks in Ohio, Michigan, Georgia, and Alabama were related, and analysis of isolates submitted from various other states demonstrated that cases associated with marijuana may have been dispersed as far as California and Massachusetts.

Quantitative Analysis of the Relationship between Intra- Axonal Neurofilament Compaction and Impaired Axonal Transport following Diffuse Traumatic Brain Injury (2005)

Traumatic axonal injury (TAI) following traumatic brain injury (TBI) contributes to morbidity and mortality. TAI involves intra-axonal changes assumed to progress to impaired axonal transport (IAT), disconnection, and axonal bulb formation. Immunocytochemical studies employing antibodies to amyloid precursor protein (APP), a marker of IAT and RMO14, a marker of neurofilament compaction (NFC), have shown that TAI involves both NFC and IAT, with the suggestion that NFC leads to IAT. Recently, new data has suggested that NFC may occur independently of IAT. The objective of this study was to determine quantitatively the precise relationship between NFC and IAT. Following TBI, rats were studied at 30 min, 3 h, and 24 h. Using single-label immunocytochemistry employing the antibodies RM014, APP, or a combined labeling strategy targeting APP/RMO14 in aggregate, the immunoreactive (IR) profiles were counted in the corticospinal tract (CSpT) and medial lemniscus (ML). In the CSpT, the number of axons demonstrating RMO14-IR approximated the number of axons showing APP-IR, with the APP-IR population showing a significant increase over 24 h (p < 0.05). The sum of both single-label counts equaled the aggregate APP/RMO14 numbers, demonstrating little relationship between NFC and IAT. In the ML, 75% of fibers demonstrated a separation of APP-IR and NFC-IR; however, 25% of the ML fibers showed co-localization of APP-IR and RMO14. The results of these studies indicate that, in the majority of damaged axons, NFC is not associated with IAT. Our findings argue for the use of multiple markers when evaluating the extent of TAI or the efficacy of therapies targeting the treatment of TAI.
Preparation of Bacterial Genomic DNA (2003)

The isolation of genomic DNA from a microorganism generally comprises three stages: cultivation of the cells, disruption to release cell contents, and chemical purification of the DNA. Two widely used methods for the preparation of bacterial DNA are those described by Marmur (1) and Kirby (2), but procedures are frequently modified to suit the particular organisms under study.
4-Aryl-1,2,3-triazole:  A Novel Template for a Reversible Methionine Aminopeptidase 2 Inhibitor, Optimized To Inhibit Angiogenesis in Vivo (2005)

Inhibitors of human methionine aminopeptidase type 2 (hMetAP2) are of interest as potential treatments for cancer. A new class of small molecule reversible inhibitors of hMetAP2 was discovered and optimized, the 4-aryl-1,2,3-triazoles. Compound 24, a potent inhibitor of cobalt-activated hMetAP2, also inhibits human and mouse endothelial cell growth. Using a mouse matrigel model, this reversible hMetAP2 inhibitor was also shown to inhibit angiogenesis in vivo.
Development of neurogenic placodes in Xenopus laevis (2000)

The development of neurogenic placodes in Xenopus laevis from the time of neural fold closure to larval stages is described. Placodes were reconstructed from camera lucida drawings of serial sections, and the spatiotemporal pattern of placodal neurogenesis was analyzed using in situ hybridization for the genes X-NGNR-1, XNeuroD, X-MyT1, and X-Delta-1, all of which have been implicated in the regulation of neurogenesis. Olfactory, profundal, and trigeminal placodes, a series of dorsolateral placodes (otic placode and five lateral line placodes), a series of epibranchial placodes, and two hypobranchial placodes were identified. Earlier claims that all placodes in anurans develop from a common primordium could not be confirmed. Profundal and trigeminal placodes, however, are partially fused, and all lateral line placodes arise from a common precursor. Epibranchial and hypobranchial placodes develop ventral to other placodes and dorsal and ventral to the pharyngeal pouches, respectively. Hypobranchial placodes give rise to neurons that become intimately associated with the developing heart. All neurogenic placodes strongly express the neuronal differentiation gene XNeuroD. The neuronal determination gene X-NGNR-1, however, is expressed strongly in only some placodes and not in dorsolateral placodes, indicating that neurogenesis in the latter relies on other determination genes. X-Delta-1 is expressed not only in the neurogenic parts of the placodes but also in the primordia of the lateral lines. This suggests that Delta-Notch-mediated lateral inhibition may be involved not only in placodal neurogenesis, but also in the patterning of lateral line neuromasts. J. Comp.

Recombinant Lactococcus starters as a potential source of additional peptidolytic activity in cheese ripening (2002)

The results will be of importance in shortening the ripening period and production of special cheeses (e.g. reduced-fat cheeses) with improved characteristics.
Stability of prothrombin and factor VII in freeze-dried plasma (1971)

The stability of prothrombin and factor VII was studied using accelerated degradation tests in three preparations of freeze-dried pooled normal plasmas. In a previous report (Brozović, Gurd, Robertson, and Bangham, 1971) factor X was shown to be relatively unstable in these preparations of freeze-dried plasma: it was calculated that up to 8% of the original factor X activity would be lost after 10 years at -20 degrees C, up to 54% at 4 degrees C, and up to 90% at room temperature. The losses of factor VII activity were estimated to be negligible at -20 degrees C, between 2 and 18% at 4 degrees C, and between 20 and 70% of the original activity at 20 degrees C, after 10 years of storage. Prothrombin was found to be less stable than factor VII: the expected loss in 10 years at -20 degrees C may be up to 4%, at 4 degrees C up to 30%, and at 20 degrees C up to 83% of the initial activity. These findings indicate that in freeze-dried plasma prothrombin as well as factor X may be insufficiently stable for plasma to serve as long-term reference material for the standardization of the one-stage prothrombin time. Moreover, the loss of prothrombin and factor X in freeze-dried plasma stored at 4 degrees C may be so high that when it is required to preserve these factors it may be necessary to store freeze-dried plasma at lower temperatures.
Normalization of fasting glycaemia by intravenous GLP-1 ([7-36 amide] or [7-37]) in Type 2 diabetic patients (1998)

Intravenous GLP-1 [7-36 amide] can normalize fasting hyperglycaemia in Type 2 diabetic patients. Whether GLP-1 [7-37] has similar effects and how quickly plasma glucose concentrations revert to hyperglycaemia after stopping GLP-1 is not known. Therefore, 8 patients with Type 2 diabetes (5 female, 3 male; 65+/-6 years; BMI 34.3+/-7.9 kg m(-2); HbA1c 9.6+/-1.2%; treatment with diet alone (n=2), sulphonylurea (n=5), metformin (n=1)) were examined twice in randomized order. GLP-1 [7-36 amide] or [7-37] (1 pmol kg(-1)min(-1) were infused intravenously over 4 h in fasted subjects. Plasma glucose (glucose-oxidase), insulin and C-peptide (ELISA) was measured during infusion and for 4 h thereafter. Indirect calorimetry was performed. Fasting hyperglycaemia was 11.7+/-0.9 [7-36 amide] and 11.3+/-0.9 mmol l(-1) [7-37]. GLP-1 infusions stimulated insulin secretion approximately 3-fold (insulin peak 168+/-32 and 156+/-47 pmol l(-1), p<0.0001 vs basal; C-peptide peak 2.32+/-0.28 and 2.34+/-0.43 nmol l(-1), p<0.0001, respectively, with GLP-1 [7-36 amide] and [7-37]). Four hours of GLP-1 infusion reduced plasma glucose (4.8+/-0.4 and 4.6+/-0.3 mmol l(-1), p<0.0001 vs basal values), and it remained in the non-diabetic fasting range after a further 4 h (5.1+/-0.4 and 5.3+/-0.4 mmol l(-1), for GLP [7-36 amide] and [7-37], respectively). There were no significant differences between GLP-1 [7-36 amide] and [7-37] (glucose, p=0.99; insulin, p=0.99; C-peptide, p=0.99). Neither glucose oxidation nor lipid oxidation (or any other parameters determined by indirect calorimetry) changed during or after the administration of exogenous GLP-1. In conclusion, GLP-1 [7-36 amide] and [7-37] normalize fasting hyperglycaemia in Type 2 diabetic patients. Diabetes therapy (diet, sulphonyl ureas or metformin) does not appear to influence this effect. In fasting and resting patients, the effect persists during administration of GLP-1 and for at least 4 h thereafter, without rebound. Significant changes in circulating substrate concentrations (e.g. glucose) are not accompanied by changes in intracellular substrate metabolism.
Focusing Beyond the Diffraction Limit with Far-Field Time Reversal (2007)

We present an approach for subwavelength focusing of microwaves using both a time-reversal mirror placed in the far field and a random distribution of scatterers placed in the near field of the focusing point. The far-field time-reversal mirror is used to build the time-reversed wave field, which interacts with the random medium to regenerate not only the propagating waves but also the evanescent waves required to refocus below the diffraction limit. Focal spots as small as one-thirtieth of a wavelength are described. We present one example of an application to telecommunications, which shows enhancement of the information transmission rate by a factor of 3.
Thiol adducts of ethacrynic acid increase outflow facility in enucleated calf eyes (1992)

Ethacrynic acid (ECA), a sulfhydryl (SH)-reactive diuretic drug, has been shown to increase outflow facility (C) both in living monkey eyes and in the calf eye, in vitro (Epstein et al. 1987). In an attempt to increase the therapeutic index of this drug for potential clinical use in glaucoma, we explored the effect of various thiol adducts of ECA on C in the calf eye in vitro. These adducts might be expected to liberate ECA by a reversible retro-Michael type reaction. Enucleated calf eyes were perfused at 25 degrees C at 15 mm Hg for 5 hours with various ECA-thiol adducts. ECA-cysteine at 0.25 mM (for each) increased outflow facility 104% compared to 38% in sham manipulated eyes (n-10; p less than .005). A dose response effect was demonstrated from 0.01 mM to 0.25 mM. A relative potency table (for increasing C) was established for several ECA-thiol adducts: Cysteine = cysteamine greater than glutathione greater than N-Acetyl cysteine greater than thiosalicylic acid greater than N-Acetyl cysteamine. This study identifies the potential of utilizing various derivatives of ECA as outflow pathway acting agents.
Mechanism investigation and suppression of self-discharge in active electrolyte enhanced supercapacitors (2014)

The mechanism of self-discharge (SDC) in active electrolyte enhanced supercapacitors was investigated, and two strategies were devised to suppress the SDC process.
Regular Solution Theory and CO2 Gas Solubility in Room-Temperature Ionic Liquids (2004)

This paper explores the arguments for using solubility parameters and the regular solution theory for modeling gas solubilities in five different room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) at low partial pressures (<1 atm) and low mole fractions (<0.1). The experimentally measured and reported carbon dioxide (CO2) solubilities at low mole fractions (<0.05) suggest positive deviations from Raoult's law for CO2/RTIL solutions. These CO2 solubility deviations from Raoult's law indicate that CO2/RTIL complexations are not the sole controlling factor in relative CO2 solubilities. The RTILs' energies of vaporization and molar volumes appear to be factors in determining relative CO2 solubilities between RTILs. The energies of vaporization for the RTILs were empirically estimated from their melting points.
Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen Ligands for Imaging and Therapy (2017)

The prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is highly expressed on most prostate cancer (PC) cells. Therefore, the targeting of PSMA has become increasingly important over the last decade. Glu-urea-based PSMA ligands used for both imaging and radioligand therapy are the mainstays of the current success. For PET imaging, both <sup>68</sup>Ga- and <sup>18</sup>F-labeled agents have been successfully translated to clinical applications. Mainly retrospective cohort studies have shown a high value in the setting of biochemical recurrence, with high detection rates even in the presence of low prostate-specific antigen levels. Preliminary data indicated that radioguided surgery with PSMA ligands may help to further improve patient outcomes because it facilitates the removal of small tumor deposits that are otherwise difficult to detect. For primary PC, PSMA ligand PET imaging has been shown to be superior to cross-sectional imaging for the detection of metastatic lymph nodes. In addition, it promises to also provide intraprostatic tumor localization, especially when used in combination with multiparametric MRI. Increasing numbers of studies have reported considerable changes in management resulting from PSMA ligand PET imaging for both biochemical recurrence and primary disease. The use of <sup>177</sup>Lu-PSMA-based radioligand therapy has demonstrated a reasonable response, mainly as defined by a prostate-specific antigen response of more than 50%, comparable to other recently introduced agents. Especially given the high level of safety of <sup>177</sup>Lu-PSMA radioligand therapy, with only minimal grade 3 and 4 toxicities reported so far, it has the potential to expand options for metastatic castration-resistant PC. This review is intended to provide a comprehensive overview of the current literature on low-molecular-weight PSMA ligands for both PET imaging and therapeutic approaches, with a focus on agents that have been clinically adopted.

EfficientN-Arylation andN-Alkenylation of the Five DNA/RNA Nucleobases (2006)

A general approach to N-arylation and N-alkenylation of all five DNA/RNA nucleobases at the nitrogen atom normally attached to the sugar moiety in DNA or RNA has been developed. Various protected or masked nucleobases engaged readily in the copper-mediated Chan-Lam-Evans-modified Ullmann condensation with a range of different boronic acids at room temperature and were subsequently converted to the corresponding deprotected or unmasked adducts. Different N(3)-protecting groups were examined in the case of thymine, where the benzoyl group afforded the highest yields. A 4-alkylthio-substituted pyrimidin-2(1H)-one served as both a cytosine and a uracil precursor and was N-arylated and N-alkenylated in high yields. Adenine was efficiently and selectively N-arylated and N-alkenylated at the N(9) position by employing a bis-Boc-protected adenine derivative, while a bis-Boc-protected 2-amino-6-chloropurine served as guanine precursor and could also be selectively N(9)-arylated and N(9)-alkenylated.
RequestRodeo: Client Side Protection against Session Riding (2006)

Chevrel-type superatoms refer to the ligated transition metal chalcogenide clusters M<sub>6</sub>E<sub>8</sub>L<sub>6</sub>, where the octahedral M<sub>6</sub> is face-capped with cubic chalcogen E<sub>8</sub> (E = S/Se/Te). Most transition metals can form such superatoms and many organic and inorganic ligands can be substituted in solution reactions, which allows these atomic precision species to be easily functionalized and their properties to be tunable. No test was reported for substituting the chalcogens with pnicogens in this class of materials. In this article, we try to discover if such substitutions are possible. Combining different transition metals and ligands, theoretical computations show that [M<sub>6</sub>Q<sub>8</sub>(CN)<sub>6</sub>]<sup>2-</sup> (Q = P, As, Sb) for M = Co, Rh, Ir, and Ni, Pd, Pt have closed electronic shells and possess enhanced thermal and chemical stabilities. Analyses of the electronic structures indicate high similarity between the M-M and M-Q/M-S interactions in these species.
Experimental Comparison of Laser and Cryosurgical Cilia Destruction (1992)

We compared cryosurgery with the argon and carbon dioxide lasers in a rabbit model to evaluate the permanence of eyelash destruction as well as the gross and histologic effects on the eyelid. Each modality was equally effective in preventing eyelash regrowth. Cryosurgery and the carbon dioxide laser produced the greatest acute soft tissue swelling; the carbon dioxide laser produced the most pronounced gross eyelid alterations. The argon laser produced minimal eyelid tissue change. Long-term histologic tissue alterations were not striking and were confined to eyelids treated with cryosurgery and the carbon dioxide laser. We conclude that, of the two lasers, the argon is the best suited to the clinical treatment of trichiasis: it is widely available, more precise in limiting contiguous tissue destruction when delivered through a slit lamp, and is safer for use near the eye.
Induction of optimal anti-viral neutralizing B cell responses by dendritic cells requires transport and release of virus particles in secondary lymphoid organs (2000)

Dendritic cells (DC) are sentinels of the immune system, transporting antigens from the periphery to secondary lymphoid organs. This study investigates the interactions of DC with B cells for the induction of anti-viral neutralizing antibody responses. Using the vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein (VSV-G) as a model antigen, we show that DC contain infection with cytopathic VSV in the presence of a functional IFN system, facilitating transport and release of low levels of live virus in secondary lymphoid organs. DC exposed to live virus induced efficient neutralizing anti-viral B cell responses. In contrast, DC transporting UV-inactivated viral antigens were poor activators of anti-viral B cells, although they were capable of very efficiently inducing virus-specific Th cells. Transgenic DC expressing a membrane-bound form of VSV-G induced neutralizing B cell responses; however, this DC-induced, Th-dependent B cell response was significantly slower than the anti-viral B cell response induced by DC infected with live VSV, and was strongly dependent on concomitant priming of T help. These results suggest that DC may play a double role during infection with cytopathic virus: they transport and release live virus in secondary lymphoid tissues for optimal direct B cell induction and offer MHC class II-associated determinants for induction of T help.
