    Notizen: Abstract A ferredoxin (Fd) was purified from the extremely halophilic archaeon, Haloarcula japonica strain TR- 1, to electrophoretic homogeneity. The apparent molecular weight (M r) of the Fd was estimated to be 24,000 on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The amino acid composition analysis revealed that the Fd composed of a number of acidic amino acids (uncorrected for amides). The N-terminal amino acid sequence (30 residues) was determined to be: PTVEYLNYEVVDDNGWDMYDDDVFAEASDM. The iron content was 3.42±0.04 mol/mol-Fd on the basis of the apparent M r value. The absorption and ESR spectra of the Fd showed similarity to those of Fds from plant and Halobacterium halobium. These results led us to conclude that the H. japonica Fd contained a [2Fe-2S] cluster.

    Notizen: Abstract The gene encoding a novel bacteriorhodopsin (bR) -like protein from Haloarcula japonica strain TR-1 was cloned and sequenced. The nucleotide sequence of the gene contained an open reading frame that corresponded to a protein of 250 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence of Ha. japonica bR-like protein exhibited the highest homology to those of cruxrhodopsins (cRs) produced by members of the genus Haloarcula, suggesting that the bR-like protein of Ha. japonica belonged to the cR subfamily. The hydropathy analysis of Ha. japonica bR-like protein (cR) revealed that the Ha. japonica cR had a transmembrane heptahelical structure similar to that of bR. Furthermore, transcription of the cR gene in Ha. japonica was confirmed by the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction method.

    Notizen: Abstract Background. Chemotherapy is an important component of the multimodal approach to the treatment of advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Methods. We investigated the associations between p53, p21 (Waf1), bcl-2, and bax expression and response to chemotherapy (cisplatin + 5-fluorouracil + leucovorin) in 43 patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The expression of p53, p21 (Waf1), bcl-2, and bax proteins was analyzed immunohistologically in pretreatment biopsy and post-treatment resected specimens. Results. The 23 patients who had objective evidence of either a complete response (CR) or a partial response (PR) to chemotherapy survived for significantly longer than the 20 patients who had no response (NR). The expression of p53, p21 (Waf1), bcl-2, and bax was detected in 26 (61%), 12 (28%), 6 (14%), and 19 (44%) of the pretreatment biopsy specimens, respectively. The response to chemotherapy was not independently associated with the expression of any of these proteins. However, in the 26 patients with p53-expressing tumors, the response rate was 80% in patients whose tumor also expressed p21, whereas it was 19% in those whose tumor did not coexpress p21. No change in p53 expression was observed before and after chemotherapy, except in 1 patient; however, p21 expression appeared to be induced by chemotherapy in 5 patients. Patient survival was also not independently associated with the expression of any of these proteins. However, patients with p53-negative or p21-positive tumors had a better response to chemotherapy and survived for longer than those with p53-positive and p21-negative tumors. Conclusion. p53 and p21 expression in biopsy specimens obtained before chemotherapy could be useful predictors of response and survival in patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

    Notizen: Abstract Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) has a trophic effect on various types of neurons, including cerebellar Purkinje cells. To investigate the role of GDNF in the human cerebellum, we examined the cerebella of eight control cases and eight patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA) immunohistochemically using a polyclonal anti-GDNF antibody. The antibody recognized a single band of approximately 34 kDa on Western blot analysis of human cerebellar homogenates. In the cerebella from normal subjects, the neuronal somata and dendrites of the Purkinje cells were immunostained intensely, as were some axons, including torpedoes, immunolabeled in the granular layer. Many axons and a few oligodendrocytes were also immunopositive in the white matter, and weak immunoreactivity was detected in the granule cells and neurons in the cerebellar nuclei. In the cerebella from patients with MSA, the general immunostaining pattern was similar to that observed in the normal subjects. Most of the remaining Purkinje cells showed strong immunoreactivity, and abundant GDNF-positive granular structures or dense arborizations of GDNF-positive dendrites were found in some areas of the molecular layer. These data suggest that GDNF may be mainly produced and localized in the Purkinje cells of the human cerebellum, even in patients with MSA, and that the functional impairment of the Purkinje cells of MSA patients might cause a focal accumulation of GDNF in the dendrites of some of the surviving Purkinje cells.

    Notizen: Abstract We examined the clinical characteristics and prognosis in six patients with familial von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease and seven with sporadic hemangioblastomas. The expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), p53 protein, and proliferative potential with Ki67 monoclonal antibody (MIB-1) was compared using immunohistochemical methods between sporadic and VHL disease-associated hemangioblastomas. Patients with sporadic CNS hemangioblastomas were treated by total removal of the tumors, and they had a good long-term prognosis without neurological deficits on recurrence. However, patients with familial VHL disease often had multiple hemangioblastomas in the CNS and visceral tumors. Even if total removal of CNS hemangioblastomas in patients with VHL disease was performed initially, small multiple hemangioblastomas recurred during long-term follow-up in areas remote from the primary region resected by surgery. All of the hemangioblastomas displayed extensive over-expression of VEGF protein, with moderate to marked proliferation of blood vessels. The MIB-1 indices showed low values of 0.8% as the mean, with a range of 0.03%–2.1% for all the hemangioblastomas. None of the hemangioblastomas expressed p53 protein. The hemangioblastomas in patients with VHL disease were multiple in the CNS and were combined with visceral tumors. Patients with VHL disease had a poor long-term prognosis, in contrast to those with sporadic hemangioblastomas. The immunohistochemical findings for VEGF protein, p53 protein, and MIB-1 did not differ signifi-cantly between the sporadic and VHL disease-associated hemangioblastomas.
