    Notes: Abstract Objectives: An increased risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in users of anxiolytic-hypnotic drugs (AHD) has been reported, and use of analgesics may be an additional factor. Therefore, we examined the association of AHD and analgesic use, alone and in combination, with all-cause and ischaemic heart disease (IHD) mortality. Methods: Multivariate 10-year survival analysis in a population based cohort of 500 men born in 1914. Relative risks (RR) were adjusted by relevant confounders (blood pressure, serum cholesterol, diabetes mellitus, smoking habit, high alcohol consumption, history of previous IHD, cancer, and other diseases). Results: The RR of both all-cause and IHD mortality were significantly increased among those using both AHD and analgesics compared to those who took neither of these drugs: RR=1.8 for all-cause mortality, and RR=2.7 for IHD mortality. Conclusion: Although the number of cases was small, warranting interpretative caution, the current study suggests that the combined use of AHD (mainly benzodiazepines) and analgesics seems to be associated with an increase in all-cause and IHD mortality in elderly men.

    Notes: Abstract Transcripts of most plant mitochondrial protein-coding genes exhibit C-to-U RNA editing events. In Petunia, two co-transcribed genes, nad3 and rps12, exhibit transcripts which are not fully edited at all potential editing sites. We investigated the nad3/rps12 transcript population in four different genotypes. In one pair of genotypes, the nuclear genome is identical but the nad3/rps12 genes are in different transcriptional contexts. Both the nad3/ rps12 genes and the plant mitochondrial genomes are identical in a second pair of genotypes, but the nuclear background is derived from two different Petunia species. We found that the overall extent of editing varied greatly between genotypes and is affected by nuclear genotype but not by the global transcriptional context. Local sequence context around a particular site does affect editing frequency. In all genotypes, certain sites exhibit high editing frequency, but these sites do not share obvious primary sequence characteristics. In all genotypes examined, editing sites which do not affect the encoded amino acid are less frequently edited than sites which alter codons to non-synonymous forms. All these data indicate that an unidentified property of the sequences immediately surrounding a cytosine affect its selection as a target in the editing process.

    Notes: Abstract Cytoplasmic male sterility arises when mitochondrial activities are disrupted that are essential for pollen development. Rearrangements in the mitochondrial genome that create novel open reading frames are strongly correlated with CMS phenotypes in a number of systems. The morphological aberrations which indicate CMS-associated degeneration are frequently restricted to the male sporogenous tissue and a limited number of vegetative tissues. In several cases, this tissue specificity may result from interactions between the mitochondrial genome and nuclear genes that regulate mitochondrial gene expression. A molecular mechanism by which CMS might be caused has not been conclusively demonstrated for any system. Several hypotheses for general mechanisms by which mitochondrial dysfunction might disrupt pollen development are discussed, based on similarities between the novel CMS-associated genes from a number of systems.
