    Notes: This article describes a power supply and data logger for a Langmuir probe interfaced to a personal computer. The system provides a voltage sweep range from −125 to +100 V in 100 steps in a time ∼0.15 s. Restricted sweep ranges and single point operation are also possible. Probe current measurements are in the range from −1.0 to +100 mA with a precision of 5 μA on the most sensitive range, while the voltage may be set with a precision of 56 mV. Novel features of the system include: the use of integrate-and-dump techniques to implement the process of analog-to-digital conversion and to provide effective noise suppression; a solution to the problem of floating the power supply on top of the potential developed across the grounded current sensing resistor based on the power supply rejection ratio characteristics of a high voltage operational amplifier; and the development of an interface and control board employing the GPIB protocol to communicate with a host computer. Successful operation of the system has been demonstrated in the electrically noisy environment of a helicon plasma source. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Genetic variation in immune parameters and associations to survival in Atlantic salmon (1995)

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Lysozyme activity, haemolytic activity, total level of IgM, and levels of antibodies against A-layer from Aeromonas salmonicida and O-antigen from Vibrio salmonicida, respectively, were determined in 77 full-sib groups of Atlantic salmon in order to evaluate their possible use as immune parameters for indirect selection to improve disease resistance. Fish from parallel full-sib groups had previously been challenged with Aeromonas salmonicida (causing furunculosis), Renibacterium salmoninarum (causing bacterial kidney disease, BKD) and Vibrio salmonicida (causing cold-water vibriosis). Heritabilities were estimated for each of the immune parameters and correlations between the least square means of the full-sib groups for the different immune parameters and survival rates in the parallel full-sib groups were determined. A significant genetic variation in lysozyme activity was found, as well as an apparent genetic association between low lysozyme activity and high survival rates. Low heritabilities and low univariate correlations with survival in the full-sib groups were estimated for all of the other immune parameters. An analysis of the multivariate associations between the full-sib mean values of the complete set of immune parameters, and survival rates in the parallel full-sib groups in each of the challenge tests, revealed that, at low levels of lysozyme activity and with low antibody titres against V. salmonicida O-antigen, increased IgM levels seemed to increase survival from furunculosis.

    The effect of melatonin on cellular activation processes in human blood (1999)

    Notes: Abstract: The pineal hormone melatonin, due to its lipophilic nature, has access to every cell and every part of a cell in the body, suggesting that it could exert effects on blood immune cells. The regulation of the activation of monocytes may be important in a number of diseases, especially pathophysiological conditions associated with inflammatory reactions. Considering this, a study on the effect of melatonin on monocytes in whole blood was carried out. Melatonin added at a final concentration of 5 ng/mL to whole blood in vitro reduced lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced tissue factor (TF) activity in monocytes by 55% in blood from a group of subjects with melatonin-sensitive cells. At even lower concentrations of melatonin (20-50 pg/mL) and in the physiological range, a trend of suppressed LPS-induced TF activity by ∼ 20% was seen. A further indication of a downregulation of LPS-stimulated monocytes by melatonin was shown by its reduction of LPS-induced tumor necrosis factor (TNF). Twenty to one hundred pg/mL melatonin caused a significant reduction of LPS-induced TNF production by ∼ 25–30%. In contrast, melatonin at a final concentration of 10 pg/mL, added to whole blood incubated with LPS and also the phorbol ester, PMA, caused a signficant rise of 25%; whereas 100 pg/mL enhanced LPS + PMA-induced TNF by ∼ 80% as compared to LPS + PMA alone. These effects were not detectable during the winter darkness of Tromsø (70°N), probably due to the high content of melatonin in the blood even at daytime. These results show that melatonin may have a beneficial effect by suppressing the expression of TF activity in LPS-stimulated monocytes. Furthermore, the results indicate that LPS-induced TF in monocytes of whole blood is independent of protein kinase C (PKC) activation. Melatonin is probably amplifying cellular activation reactions that are PKC-dependent. This may be physiologically important in upregulation of the immune system.

    Effects of taurine depletion on cell migration and NCAM expression in cultures of dissociated mouse cerebellum and N2A cells (1998)

    ISSN: 1438-2199
    Keywords: Amino acids ; Taurine ; Neurons ; NCAM ; Migration ; Transcription

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary Cultures of dissociated cerebellum from 5- to 6-day-old mice as well as of the N2A neuronal cell line were exposed to guanidino ethane sulfonate (GES, 2–5 mM) to reduce the cellular taurine content. Control cultures were kept in culture medium or medium containing 2–5 mM GES plus 2–5 mM taurine to restore the intracellular taurine content. Taurine depletion led to changes in the expression of certain splice variants of NCAM mRNA such as the AAG and the VASE containing forms, while no differences were seen in the expression of the three forms of NCAM protein. In the N2A cells taurine depletion led to a decreased migration rate of the cells. The results suggest that the reduced migration rate of neurons caused by taurine depletion may be correlated to changes in expression of certain adhesion molecules such as NCAM. Moreover, taurine appears to be involved in regulation of transcription processes.

    Notes: Summary The polypeptide hormones gastrin and cholecystokinin are structurally related, having the identical pentapeptide GWMDF located at their C-terminus. The precursors to these two hormones also show amino acid homology, suggesting that they may have a common ancestral origin. Recombinant DNA clones corresponding to gene fragments encoding human gastrin and cholecystokinin were used to determine their respective chromosomal localization by analyzing human-rodent cell lines. We have assigned the cholecystokinin gene to human chromosome 3q12-3pter and the gastrin gene to chromosome 17q.

    Compressive strength of interbody cages in the lumbar spine: the effect of cage shape, posterior instrumentation and bone density (1998)

    European spine journal 7 (1998), S. 132-141

    Notes: Abstract One goal of interbody fusion is to increase the height of the degenerated disc space. Interbody cages in particular have been promoted with the claim that they can maintain the disc space better than other methods. There are many factors that can affect the disc height maintenance, including graft or cage design, the quality of the surrounding bone and the presence of supplementary posterior fixation. The present study is an in vitro biomechanical investigation of the compressive behaviour of three different interbody cage designs in a human cadaveric model. The effect of bone density and posterior instrumentation were assessed. Thirty-six lumbar functional spinal units were instrumented with one of three interbody cages: (1) a porous titanium implant with endplate fit (Stratec), (2) a porous, rectangular carbon-fibre implant (Brantigan) and (3) a porous, cylindrical threaded implant (Ray). Posterior instrumentation (USS) was applied to half of the specimens. All specimens were subjected to axial compression displacement until failure. Correlations between both the failure load and the load at 3 mm displacement with the bone density measurements were observed. Neither the cage design nor the presence of posterior instrumentation had a significant effect on the failure load. The loads at 3 mm were slightly less for the Stratec cage, implying lower axial stiffness, but were not different with posterior instrumentation. The large range of observed failure loads overlaps the potential in vivo compressive loads, implying that failure of the bone-implant interface may occur clinically. Preoperative measurements of bone density may be an effective tool to predict settling around interbody cages.

    Peripheral arterial disease as a predictor of outcome after renal transplantation (1998)
    Springer
    Transplant international 11 (1998), S. S140 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2277
    Keywords: Key words Renal transplantation ; Peripheral occlusive arterial disease ; Intermittent claudication

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Abstract Our aim was to assess the prevalence of symptomatic and asymptomatic peripheral occlusive arterial disease (POAD) in 129 consecutive diabetic (n = 34) and non-diabetic (n = 95) patients undergoing renal transplantation. The association of pre-existent POAD and complaints of claudication, lower limb amputations, and graft and patient survival were evaluated during a 5-year follow up. A questionnaire on walking capacity, ankle/brachial (ABI) and toe/brachial (TBI) pressure indices as well as the pulse volume recording (PVR) at the ankle were used to assess resting haemodynamics and the presence of POAD 4 days after the transplantation. Unquestionable ischaemia was encountered in 5 (4 %) patients all with a history of intermittent claudication and an ABI equal or below 0.77. While using assessment methods not affected by vessel calcification, i. e. toe pressures and PVR damping, a many-fold frequency of arterial disease was observed when compared to previous studies. TBI below 0.65 was found in 11 of diabetic (32 %) and in 15 of the others (16 %), and a PVR amplitude below 5 min in 28 of diabetics (82 %) and in 34 of non-diabetics (36 %). During the 5-year follow up, abnormal TBI and PVR values and diabetes at the time of transplantation were the greatest risk factors for proximal foot amputations. The low TBI levels also indicated a shortened patient survival. However, transplant function was not affected by the presence of abnormal haemodynamic indices at the time of transplantation.

    Notes: Abstract The search for superheavy elements /SHE/ in the carbonaceous chondrite Allende was continued. This time we carried out a thermochromatographic separation at 1050 °C in O2-, resp., H2-gas flow. The volatile fraction /mostly Pb/ was collected on a Pt-foil or trapped in KOH-solution. The heavy element probes were investigated for spontaneous fission activities. We observed zero spontaneous fission decays during 421 days. This yielded an upper limit of ≤2.9 fission x kg−1 x year−1 /95% confidence limit/. We were unable to confirm the existence of a spontaneous fission activity in the meteorite Allende.
