    Notes: Due to the separation of the eyes, temporal retinal disparities are created during binocular stimulation and they have been proposed to be the basis of several stereo-visual effects. This paper studies the sensitivity of cortical neurons from area V1 to interocular temporal delay in the awake monkey (Macaca mulatta). Forty-four cells were included in this study. Temporal delay sensitivity was observed in 59% of them. About half of these temporal-delay-sensitive cells were also sensitive to the stimulation sequence of the eyes. The cells that preferred one eye to be stimulated first were termed asymmetrical (46%); those which were not sensitive to the eye sequence of stimulation were termed symmetrical (54%). No clear differences were observed in the distribution of delay-sensitive cells according to their eye dominance. Fifty-six percent of balanced cells and 65% of unbalanced cells were sensitive to interocular delay. These data underline the importance of temporal cues for depth perception.

    Notes: Background: The α1-adrenoceptor antagonist doxazosin has proved successful in treating patients with concurrent benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and hypertension in short-term studies. However, both conditions are chronic and may worsen over time. The aim of this study was, therefore, to examine the tolerability and efficacy of doxazosin in the long-term treatment of concurrent BPH and hypertension. Methods: This study was a longitudinal extension of earlier double-blind trials. Patients were enrolled into the study on a rolling basis. From a total of 178 BPH patients with hypertension enrolled into the study, 28 had reached 48 months of open-label treatment with doxazosin at the time of the final data cutoff. Results: Treatment with doxazosin resulted in sustained benefits for BPH patients over the whole study period, with significant improvements in the severity (12.2%, P 〈 0.001) and bothersomeness (13.2%, P 〈 0.001) of BPH symptoms, and in the maximum urinary flow rate (26.6%, P 〈 0.05) from baseline to the end of the 4-year period. There was also a significant and sustained reduction in diastolic blood pressure. The efficacy of doxazosin treatment for both BPH and hypertension was maintained over the 4-year period, despite the tendency of these conditions to worsen with time. Comparison of adverse events in patients with long- and short-term hypertension and BPH demonstrates that the safety of doxazosin is not altered during long-term therapy. Conclusions: This study demonstrates that doxazosin appears to be well tolerated and efficacious in the long-term management of concurrent BPH and hypertension.

    Notes: Background Tetracycline is an antibiotic which has been proven beneficial as an immunomodulating drug in the treatment of autoimmune bullous diseases. Methods Thirteen hospitalized patients with pempigus vulgaris received tetracycline2 g/day for 1 month, then 1 g/day for the following 4 weeks. Prednisone 0.5–1 mg/kg/day was then gradually reduced. The control group consisted of seven patients with pemphigus who had received prednisone and azathioprine. Results A total of 13 patients in the study group achieved cessation of new blister formation within 5.4 days, compared to 23.71 days (p 〈 0.0001). The average initial dose of prednisone was 76.53 mg/day for the study group and 118.57 mg/day in the control group (p 〈 0.014). The average number of days before reduction of the prednisone dosage could begin was 16.53 days for the study group compared to 31.28 days in the control (p 〈 0.049). Total hospitalization time was also significantly lower: 34.07 days(p 〈 0.001). The clinical response was not linked to the location of lesions nor to severity of disease. Conclusions Tetracycline was shown to be effective as an adjuvant therapy for pemphigus with low toxicity and safety.

    Notes: Non-growing cells of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and K-12 that were incubated anaerobically in sodium phosphate buffer at pH 6.5 consumed glucose at a rate of approximately 8 μmol·(mg protein)−1·h−1 and had intracellular pH values of 7.3 and 7.5, respectively. The uncoupler, carbonylcyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP), caused a marked decrease in intracellular pH, ATP and potassium of both strains. Low concentrations of CCCP stimulated glucose consumption rate, but higher concentrations were inhibitory. Acetate also caused a decrease in intracellular pH, but it never caused a large decrease in glucose consumption rate. Acetate decreased the intracellular ATP of E. coli K-12, but it had no effect on the ATP of O157:H7. Acetate had no effect on the intracellular potassium of E. coli O157:H7, and acetate-treated K-12 cells had even more potassium than untreated controls. Based on these results, acetate and CCCP appear to have different effects on E. coli. The comparison of E. coli O157:H7 and K-12 indicated that intracellular pH, acetate accumulation and intracellular potassium were related. E. coli K-12 maintained a higher intracellular pH than O157:H7, accumulated more acetate and had a greater intracellular potassium.

    Notes: Abstract The adenylate energy charge of cells of Myoococcus coralloides D has been measured during the different stages of its life cycle. The energy charge of the vegetative cells (0.8) did not change significantly either during glycerol-induced myxospore formation, or during germination of these myxospores. Fruiting body myxospores had a relatively high energy charge (0.65). The adenylate energy charge decreased slightly (from 0.82 to 0.65) throughout fruiting body development and returned to values of vegetative cells in the early hours of germination of fruiting body myxospores. The levels of adenine nucleotide in myxospores in desiccation conditions were similar to those before desiccation.

    Notes: Abstract Pool changes in the orthophosphate and acid soluble and insoluble polyphosphates of Myxococcus coralloides D were determined during the different stages of its life cycle. The acid-insoluble fraction is the major fraction. Polyphosphate was synthesised during vegetative growth in a liquid medium and during aggregation and fruiting body maturation. During the induction and germination of myxospores both types of polyphosphate were depleted, the acid-insoluble fraction during the myxospore induction and the acid-soluble during germination. The orthophosphate pool remained constant or increased during growth in a liquid medium, increased during growth on solid media and myxospore induction and decreased during myxospore germination.

    Notes: Abstract Clostridium acetobutylicum P262 had phosphotransferase systems for glucose and lactose, and the lactose system was inducible. When C. acetobutylicum P262 was provided with glucose and lactose, the cultures grew in a diauxic fashion, and glucose was used preferentially. Cells grown on lactose took up thiomethylgalactoside, and retained this non-metabolizable lactose analog for long periods of time. Because glucose inhibited thiomethylgalactoside uptake and caused the efflux of thiomethylgalactoside that had already been taken up, it appeared that C. acetobutylicum P262 had inducer exclusion and inducer expulsion mechanisms similar to those found in lactic acid bacteria.

    Notes: Abstract Clostridum acetobutylicum strain P262 fermented glucose, pyruvate, or lactate, and the butyrate production was substrate-dependent. Differences in butyrate yield could not be explained by changes in butyrate kinase activities, but the butyrate production was inversely related to acetate kinase activity. The acetate kinase had a pH optimum of 8.0, a K m for acetate of 160 mM, and a k cat of 16,800 min–1. The enyzme had a native molecular mass of 78 kDa; the size of 42 kDa on SDS-PAGE indicated that the acetate kinase of strain P262 was a homodimer.

    Notes: Abstract Clostridium acetobutylicum strain P262 utilized lactate at a rapid rate [600 nmol min–1 (mg protein)–1], but lactate could not serve as the sole energy source. When acetate was provided as a co-substrate, the growth rate was 0.05 h–1. Butyrate, carbon dioxide and hydrogen were the end products of lactate and acetate utilization, and the stoichiometry was 1 lactate + 0.4 acetate → 0.7 butyrate + 0.6 H2 + 1 CO2. Lactate-grown cells had twofold lower hydrogenase than glucose-grown cells, and the lactate-grown cells used acetate as an alternative electron acceptor. The cells had a poor affinity for lactate (Ks = 1.1 mM), and there was no evidence for active transport. Lactate utilization was catabolyzed by an inducible NAD-independent lactate dehydrogenase (iLDH) that had a pH optimum of 7.5. The iLDH was fivefold more active with d-lactate than l-lactate, and the K m for d-lactate was 3.2 mM. Lactate-grown cells had little butyraldehyde dehydrogenase activity, and this defect did not allow the conversion of lactate to butanol.
