    Notes: An n=1 mode global motion on a field-reversed configuration (FRC) plasma is observed by means of a newly developed optical system. The deviation of the FRC from the coil axis reaches 20%–40% of the plasma radius. In order to push back the FRC to the equilibrium position, a multipole field (quadrupole or hexapole field) is applied. The n=1 motion can be easily controlled by the quadrupole field, the critical field strength of which is required to be about 15% of the confinement field. It is found that the n=2 rotational instability can also be stabilized by strength of the same order. The critical strength for the n=1 motion is theoretically obtained from a model such that the driving energy of the motion given at the formation phase balances with the work done by the multipole field. The theoretical estimation agrees within a factor of 2 with the experimental results. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Transconductance oscillations were observed for silicon-on-insulator metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors with 50 nm channel length and 6 nm Si-layer thickness in the temperature range of 39–50 K. By investigating the temperature dependence of the oscillations it was found that the oscillations were caused by two reasons. One reason is the roughness at the Si/insulator interface responsible for the low-gate-voltage oscillations. The roughness results in different thicknesses of the Si layer along the channel, causing different quantized energy levels, which act as barriers for carriers moving in the channel. The other reason is the tunneling through the potential barrier at the p/n junctions between the contacts and the channel, which is responsible for the high-gate-voltage oscillations. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Summary  Background  We have previously reported that several selective protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors, including procyanidin B-2, promote hair epithelial cell growth and stimulate anagen induction.Objectives  We discuss the hypothesis that the hair-growing activity of procyanidin B-2 is related to its downregulation or inhibition of translocation of PKC isozymes in hair epithelial cells.Methods  We examined the effect of procyanidin B-2 on the expression of PKC isozymes in cultured murine hair epithelial cells as well as PKC isozyme localization in murine dorsal skin at different stages in the hair cycle.Results  We observed that procyanidin B-2 reduces the expression of PKC-α, -βΙ, -βΙΙ and -η in cultured murine hair epithelial cells and also inhibits the translocation of these isozymes to the particulate fraction of hair epithelial cells. Our immunohistochemical analyses demonstrated that PKC-α, -βΙ, -βΙΙ and -η are specifically expressed in the outer root sheaths of both anagen and telogen hair follicles. The hair matrix at the anagen stage showed no positive staining for these PKC isozymes. Moderate to intense staining for PKC-βΙ and -βΙΙ in the epidermis and hair follicles was observed in a telogen-specific manner; however, expression of PKC-α and -η during the telogen stage was not conspicuous. Gö 6976, an inhibitor of calcium-dependent (conventional) PKC, proved to promote hair epithelial cell growth.Conclusions  These results suggest that PKC isozymes, especially PKC-βΙ and -βΙΙ, play an important role in hair cycle progression and that the hair-growing mechanisms of procyanidin B-2 are at least partially related to its downregulation of PKC isozymes or its inhibition of translocation of PKC isozymes to the particulate fraction of hair epithelial cells.

    Notes: Background Fabry disease results from a genetic deficiency of α-galactosidase A (GLA) activity. Phenotype–genotype correlations in this condition have not as yet been fully elucidated. Objectives To report a case of a male patient with classical Fabry disease and his mother, a heterozygous female with Fabry disease, showing cardiac involvement, and to identify the underlying GLA gene mutation in this particular phenotype. Patients/methods Genomic DNA was extracted from the patient, his mother and the unaffected family members. Biopsy specimens of skin, heart and kidney were examined using light and electron microscopy. The mutation was identified by polymerase chain reaction and direct sequencing and was confirmed by restriction enzyme fragment length polymorphism. Results The G→C transversion was identified in codon 97 of the GLA gene and resulted in an A97P amino acid substitution that was a novel pathogenic GLA gene mutation. The male patient who had classical Fabry disease was hemizygous and his mother was heterozygous for this mutation. Conclusions These results indicate that the A97P amino acid substitution in GLA might tend to induce classical Fabry disease.
