    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Les modes d'utilisation de glucose, le contenu de calcium et d'hydroxyproline et la densité cellulaire du perioste de les os frontaux d'embryons de poulet de 12 et 13 jours de developpement, cultivés sur coagulum de plasma, se presentant différenment à chaque âge. Cultivés avec sulfate de déhydroèpiandrostérone en concentration 1 mM, les frontaux de 12 jours montrent un synthese augmentée du matrice osseuse, celle de 13 jours se calcifient à une vélocité significativement plus grande que celle des os contôles. Le degré de calcification au quatrième jour de culture measuré par la relation calcium/hydroxyproline, suit un fonction lineáire avec le logarithme des doses de sulfate de dehydroepiandrostérone employées (0.5, 1,0 et 2,0 mM). Les renseignements obtenus indiquent que les frontaux de 13 jours, cultivés “in vitro” constituent modeles experimentaux appropriés pour étudier l'effet des androgénes sur le tissue osseux.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Stirnbeine von Hühnerembryonen an ihrem 12. und 13. Entwicklungstag entnommen und in vitro kultiviert zeigen verschiedene Arten der Glucoseverwertung der Periostzellendichte, des Calcium- und Hydroxyprolingehaltes. Wird Dehydroepiandrosteronsulfat dem Medium in einer 1 mM-Konzentration zugegeben, so beteiligen sich die 12tägigen Stirnbeine vorwiegend an der Knochengewebesynthese, während die 13tägigen signifikant stärker verkalken als die Kontrollen. Gemessen an der Calcium/hydroxyprolin Ratio bildet die Verkalkung der 13tägigen Stirnbeine eine lineare Funktion mit den Logarithmen der verwendeten Dosen von Dehydroepiandrosteronsulfat (0,5, 1,0 und 2,0 mM). Das in vitro kultivierte 13tägige Stirnbein schein ein geeignetes Experimentiermodell zur Studie der Dehydroepiandrosteronsulfatwirkung auf das Knochengewebe zu sein, weil es das grundlegende Phänomen (erhöhte Verkalkung) wiedergibt, welches man auch bei mit Androgenen behandelten Menschen und Tieren beobachtet.
    Notes: Abstract Chick embryo frontal bones at 12 and 13 days of development cultivatedin vitro exhibit different patterns of glucose utilization, periosteal cellular density and calcium and hydroxyproline content. When dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate is added to the medium at a concentration 1 mM, 12-day frontals engage primarily in osteoid tissue synthesis while 13-day frontals calcify at a significantly greater rate than controls. Measured with the ratio calcium/hydroxyproline, the calcification of 13-day frontals follows a linear function with the logarithm of the doses of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate employed (0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mM). The 13-day frontal bone cultivatedin vitro seems to be an adequate experimental model for the study of the effects of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate on bone tissue because it reproduces the basic phenomenon (increased calcification) observed in man and animals treated with androgens.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Les effets des androgènes (déhydroépiandrostérone et testostérone) sur le métabolisme des hydrates de carbone ont été étudiés en utilisant deux modèles expérimentaux. Le premier fait appel à la culturein vitro d'os embryonnaires d'oiseaux. Dans le deuxième modèle, on utilise des os non embryonnaires de mammifères, en cours d'ossification enchondralein vivo. Dans les deux cas, on note une augmentation de l'activité de la glucose-6-phosphate déhydrogénase et une oxydation différente de la glucose-1-14C et glucose-6-14C. Ces faits indiquent un changement dans le métabolisme du glucose allant vers la voie oxydative directe. En plus, le traitement provoque une hyperplasie de la couche hypertrophique dans l'épiphyse osseuse chez les souris prépubères.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Es wurden die Wirkungen von Androgenen (Dehydroepiandrosteron und Testosteron) auf den Kohlenhydratumsatz von Knochen mittels 2 experimenteller Modelle untersucht: einerseits anin vitro gezüchteten Bindegewebsknochen von Hühnerembryonen und andererseitsin vivo an nichtembryonalen Säugetierknochen mit endochondraler Ossifikation. In beiden Modellen läßt die Aktivitätszunahme der Glucose-6-phosphat-dehydrogenase und die unterschiedliche Oxydation von Glucose-1-14C und Glucose-6-14C eine Verschiebung des Glucosemetabolismus gegen den direkten oxydativen Abbau vermuten. Weiterhin erzeugt eine Behandlung mit diesen Hormonen eine Hyperplasie der hypertrophen Zellschicht an der Epiphysenplatte von vorpubertären Mäusen.
    Notes: Abstract An investigation on the effects of androgens (dehydroepiandrosterone and testosterone) on the carbohydrate metabolism of bone was carried out with two experimental models: avian embryonic membranous bone cultivatedin vitro, and mammal non-embryonic bone of endochondral ossificationin vivo. In both models, the increase in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity and the differential oxidation of glucose-1-14C and glucose-6-14C suggest a shift in glucose metabolism toward the direct oxidative pathway. In addition, treatment with these hormones produces hyperplasia of the hypertrophic cell layer at the epiphyseal plate of prepubertal mice.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Bei asymptomatischen, anti-HCV positiven Personen mit andauernd normalen oder leicht (das heißt ≤1,5 fach über der oberen Normgrenze) liegenden Serum ALT-Spiegeln wurden die HCV-RNA im Serum, Leberhistologie und das RIBA-II-Muster untersucht. Bei 22 asymptomatischen, anti-HCV positiven Personen (11 Männern und 11 Frauen im mittleren Alter von 40; Bereich 21–70 Jahren) wurde eine Leberbiopsie durchgeführt und HCV-RNA im Serum bestimmt. Der Nachweis von anti-HCV wurde mit ELISA-2 und RIBA-II-Tests geführt. Die HCV-RNA im Serum wurde mittels PCR bestimmt. Unsere Untersuchungen zeigten, 1.) daß 9/22 asymptomatischen, anti-HCV-positiven Personen histologische Zeichen einer chronischen Lebererkrankung mit fortbestehender HCV-Infektion hatten. 2.) Vier Personen hatten keine histologischen Zeichen einer chronischen Hepatitis und normale Serum-ALT-Spiegel trotz Nachweises von HCV-RNA im Serum. 3.) Die ALT-Spiegel im Serum unterschieden HCV-RNA positive Personen mit chronischer Hepatitis nicht von denjenigen ohne chronische Hepatitis. 4.) Bei anti-HCV positiven Personen mit normalen ALT-Spiegeln ist ein positiver RIBA-II Test nicht immer mit einer HCV-Virämie oder einer chronischen Hepatitis assoziiert. Bei unklarem RIBA-II-Muster bestanden häufig unspezifische Leberveränderungen oder ein normaler histologischer Befund. „Wirklich“ gesunde Träger von HCV (das heißt, Personen mit normalem Serum ALT-Spiegel, ohne histologische Zeichen einer chronischen Hepatitis trotz HCV Virämie) können folglich vorkommen.
    Notes: Summary This study was designed to evaluate serum HCV-RNA, liver histology, and RIBA-II pattern in asymptomatic anti-HCV positive subjects with persistently normal or slightly (i.e. ≤1.5 times the upper limit of the normal range) elevated serum ALT levels. To this purpose, 22 asymptomatic anti-HCV positive subjects (11 men and 11 women, median age 40, range 21–70 years) underwent liver biopsy and determination of serum HCV-RNA. Positivity for anti-HCV was determined by ELISA-2 and by RIBA-II. Serum HCV-RNA was determined by PCR. Our data show that: 1) 9/22 symptom-free, anti-HCV positive subjects had histological features of chronic liver disease associated with ongoing HCV infection; 2) four subjects had no histological signs of chronic hepatitis and normal serum ALT levels despite positivity for serum HCV-RNA; 3) serum ALT levels did not discriminate HCV-RNA positive subjects with from those without chronic hepatitis; 4) in anti-HCV positive subjects with normal serum ALT levels, a positive RIBA-II pattern was not always predictive of HCV viraemia or chronic hepatitis while an indeterminate RIBA-II pattern was frequently associated with nonspecific liver changes or normal histology. In conclusion, based on these findings, “true” healthy carriers of HCV (i.e. subjects with normal serum ALT levels and no histological features of chronic hepatitis despite HCV viraemia) may exist.

    Regulation of cell survival in CD95-induced T cell apoptosis: role of NF-κB/Rel transcription factors (1999)

    Notes: Abstract The activity of NF-κB/Rel transcription factors can inhibit the apoptosis induced by TNF, UV or cancer therapy drugs in a number of cell types, including human T lymphocytes. Furthermore, the NF-κB/Rel inducer, phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), has been reported to suppress the CD95-induced apoptosis of human T lymphocytes. To verify whether the survival-enhancing effect of PMA required NF-κB/Rel activity, we generated two Jurkat cell sublines (AL.7 and AL.8) transfected with a pCMV4-IκBα construct, and two (AL.3 and AL.5) with the void pCMV4 vector. Compared to wild type, AL.3 and AL.5 cells, the AL.7 and AL.8 sublines displayed markedly lower amounts of NF-κB/Rel nuclear complexes and a reduced expression of a κB-controlled CAT reporter gene after 1 and 4 h of incubation with PMA, respectively. All the five cell types displayed negligible levels of apoptosis when cultured with medium or PMA alone; when stimulated with the mAb CH-11, the AL.7 and AL.8 sublines displayed apoptotic responses only slightly (〈0.5 fold) higher than control cells. On the other hand, the salvage activity of PMA was partially impaired in the AL.7 and AL.8 sublines. PMA inhibited apoptosis by 〉85% in wild type, AL.3 and AL.5 cells and by 〈60% in the AL.7 and AL.8 sublines; the apoptosis percentages in the mAb CH-11 + PMA cultures of the IκBα-transfected cells were 〉4-fold higher than in control cells. We conclude that the inhibition of the CD95-induced apoptosis by PMA relies on both NF-κB/Rel-dependent and -independent mechanisms. The partial contribution of these nuclear factors to the suppression of apoptosis indicates that the NF-κB/Rel activity can influence the extent of the CD95-induced T cell death.

    Notes: Abstract Gastric mucosal cell migration and proliferation are crucial events in the repair of gastric mucosal erosions. This study was designed to test the hypothesis that the H2 blockers roxatidine and ranitidine might stimulate migration and proliferation of gastric mucous cells derived from a human well-differentiated gastric adenocarcinoma cell line (MKN 28 cells)in vitro, in conditions independent of systemic factors and of acid inhibition. Confluent monolayers of MKN 28 cells were wounded with a razor blade and were then incubated with roxatidine or ranitidine. The number of cells migrating to the damaged area was determined 24 hr later. Cell proliferation was assessed by means of [3H]thymidine uptake and cell counts after incubation with roxatidine or ranitidine. Neither H2 antagonist significantly stimulated cell migration. On the other hand, cell proliferation was dose-dependently and significantly enhanced by incubation with roxatidine and ranitidine. Exogenous administration of TGF-α significantly stimulated MKN 28 cell division. However, incubation with roxatidine or ranitidine did not increase the steady-state mRNA expression of TGF-α or EGFR as assessed by northern blot analysis. Based on thesein vitro findings, we postulate that the ulcer healing effect of these H2 antagonistsin vivo might be due in part to stimulation of gastric mucosal cell proliferation.

    Notes: Abstract: We report on the results obtained from the study of the 32S +74Ge deep inelastic reaction at incident energy E= 320 MeV. High-energy γ-rays were detected in an array of 6 seven-pack BaF2 clusters. Coincidence with complex fragments detected in 12 three-stage telescopes ensured the selection of peripheral reaction events. In order to investigate the pre-equilibrium dipole strength excitation two independent analyses were performed. In the first analysis the energy spectra of the γ-rays were evaluated in the statistical model framework while in the second one the γ-ray fragment angular correlation with respect to the nuclear spin vector of the composite system was studied. Both methods indicate the excitation of dipole strength in the highly deformed dinucleus and provide dipole resonance parameter sets that are in good agreement with each other.

    Notes: Abstract Background: Simultaneous dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) and99mTc-MIBI-SPET (DMS) for the evaluation of the presence and the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) were assessed for a head to head comparison regarding the diagnostic accuracy of the two tests. Methods and Results: Forty-five consecutive patients (33 males and 12 females: 53±6.8 yr.) underwent exercise electrocardiography and simultaneous dobutamine stress echocardiography and MIBI-SPET imaging. Coronary angiography was performed in all patients (significant coronary stenosis 〉 50%). On the basis of the results of exercise electrocardiogram the pre-test probability for coronary artery disease (Diamond's algorithm) was low (45.6±12.7 %). The overall specificity, sensitivity and predictive accuracy of Echo-dobutamine stress test for diagnosis of the presence or absence of CAD were: specificity 82%, sensitivity 76%, diagnostic accuracy 80%, positive predictive value 90%, negative predictive value 40%. The overall specificity, sensitivity and predictive accuracy of MIBI-SPET-dobutamine test for diagnosis of the presence or absence of CAD were: specificity 86%, sensitivity 87%, diagnostic accuracy 84%, positive predictive value 97%, negative predictive value 54%. MIBI-SPET-dobutamine test showed a significantly higher sensitivity in comparison with ECHO-dobutamine test (P〈0.05). Conclusion: Both noninvasive methods for the detection of CAD showed a good diagnostic accuracy. Nevertheless the SPET model showed an higher sensitivity in comparison with DSE model, essentially in the presence of a lower extent of CAD and during submaximal test.

    Notes: Abstract In this study we examined hormonal responses of Black-legged Kittiwake (Rissatridactyla) chicks to experimental variations in energy content and nutritional quality (low or high lipid to protein ratio, LPR) of their food. Starting at the age of 10 days, chicks were fed either high or low LPR fish at 30, 50, 70 and 100% of ad libitum energy intake. After 20 days of treatment, chicks were exposed to a standardized acute handling and restraint stress protocol, where a baseline sample was taken immediately after taking a chick from the nest, and three additional blood samples were taken at intervals up to 50 min. Testosterone and corticosterone titres in plasma were measured via radioimmunoassay. We found that baseline testosterone levels were not significantly affected by the experimental treatments. Food-restricted chicks had elevated baseline and acute stress-induced levels of corticosterone compared to chicks fed ad libitum. An elevation of circulating levels of corticosterone in energetically stressed individuals was further magnified by low nutritional quality of food. Baseline and acute stress-induced corticosterone levels of chicks were negatively correlated with their fat reserves. We conclude that the physiological condition of Black-legged Kittiwake chicks can be assessed reliably by measuring circulating levels of corticosterone. We discuss short- and long-term effects of elevated corticosterone secretion in food-stressed nest-bound chicks.
