    Notes: Summary Plucked scalp hairs and hair roots of pili annulati were examined to understand their pathogenesis. Stereoscopic examinations of hairs in transmitted light and/or reflected light and light microscopic surveys of the cross-sections of hairs confirmed that the cortical empty spaces appeared to be responsible to the unique dotted shiny appearance of the hairs seen by the unaided eyes under a refracted light. By transmission electron microscope, small vacuoles and dense bodies were observed in the cytoplasm of the differentiating cortical cells; subsequently, with increasing number of tonofilaments, an uneven distribution of free ribosomes occurred and abnormal spaces containing fine granular substances were formed in the cytoplasm of the cortical cells. Occasionally, extremely large cortical trichohyaline granules were found. In the keratinized hair, irregular empty spaces were present in the cortex of the abnormal hair segments. Histochemically, the keratinized cortex of the affected hairs always had more residual SH groups than the controls. Pili annulati may be a disorder of protein metabolism involving a partial dysfunction of cytoplasmic ribosomes, resulting in a lack of cortical keratin formation.

    Notes: Abstract The Borg (binder of Rho GTPases) family proteins interact with CDC42 and TC10 in a guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-dependent manner. We have isolated a full-length cDNA of the mouse Borg4 gene, which is a member of this family. Sequence analysis revealed that this gene encoded a putative 349-amino acid protein. By reverse transcription — coupled polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis, we observed that Borg4 was expressed ubiquitously in adult tissues. Additionally, we determined the entire cDNA sequence of the putative human Borg4 orthologue. By fluorescence in situ hybridization, mouse Borg4 and the putative human orthologue have been assigned to mouse chromosome 11E and human chromosome 17q24–25, which has been described as syntenic to the mouse region.
