    Notes: Abstract Thromboembolic events frequently complicate theclinical course of patients with inflammatory boweldisease (IBD). Hereditary thrombophilia may contributeto this tendency. Resistance to activated protein C is the most recently described thrombophilicstate and may account for up to 40% of patients withthrombophilia. Thirty-seven patients with IBD werestudied (mean age 44 years, range 18-82 years). Three patients had a history of thrombotic episodes.The 37 controls included 23 men and 17 women (mean age48 years, range 16-89 years). Disease activity wasassessed using the Harvey Bradshaw index for patients with Crohn's disease and the Truelove and Wittsgrading system for patients with ulcerative colitis.Levels of fibrinogen, antithrombin III (ATIII), proteinC, protein S, activated protein C resistance (APCR), and the presence of a lupusanticoagulant (LA) were determined. Median ATIII levelsin patients with IBD were significantly lower thancontrols (98% vs 106%, P = 0.007), while fibrinogen waselevated (4.2 vs 3.3 g/liter, P = 0.026) despitequiescent disease activity. LA was detected in 7/37patients in the IBD group compared to 0/37 controls.(χ2 = 5.68, P = 0.017). No significantdifference was observed in levels of inherited thrombophilic factorsand in particular APCR between IBD patients andcontrols. In conclusion, the presence of inheritedthrombophilic defects, in particular APCR, is uncommonin patients with IBD and does not merit routinescreening.

    Notes: Abstract Elevated levels of anti-cardiolipin antibodiesare associated with an increased risk for venous andarterial thrombosis. In patients with inflammatory boweldisease thrombosis is a well known complication. We determined the prevalence of elevatedanti-cardiolipin antibodies in 136 patients withinflammatory bowel disease compared with 136 healthycontrols and analyzed thromboembolic complications inpatients with increased anti-cardiolipin antibodylevels. Anti-cardiolipin antibody titers weresignificantly elevated in patients with Crohn's disease(5.7 units/ml) and ulcerative colitis (5.3 units/ml)compared to the control group (2.5 units/ml). We foundno correlation between disease activity andanti-cardiolipin antibody levels. Seven patients haddeep venous thrombosis in their history, in three ofthem this was complicated by pulmonary embolism. In onlytwo of the seven patients with deep venous thrombosiswere anti-cardiolipin antibody levels increased. Inconclusion, anti-cardiolipin antibody titers were significantly increased in patients withinflammatory bowel disease. Elevated anti-cardiolipinantibody levels appear to play no role in thepathogenesis of thromboembolic events in patients withinflammatory bowel disease.

    Abstract: Ein genauses Studium der durch Xanthine-Oxidas katalysierten Reaktionen von 2-Chloropurin und anderen Basen mittels verschiedenen MO-Methoden, wie HMO, ω-SCF—HMO, PPP, zeigt dass die Enzymreaktionen in der Sprache von elektronischen Reaktivitätsindizes beschrieben werden können. Es scheint möglich das Enzymspezifizität von einer systematischen Analysis der Verschiedenheit zwischen theoretisch berechnbeten und observierten Reaktionslagen in Substraten Mit 2- und 8-oxy Substituenten vorherzusagen.De Regriffe der Grenzorbitaldichte, des Superdelokalisabilitäts und der Lokalisierungsenergie sind sich sehyr nützlich rewiesen. Verschiedence MO-Methoden gaben im allgemeinen übereinstimmende Resultate.
    Notes: A detailed study to the xanthine oxidase-catalyzed reactions of 2-chloropurine and other substrate bases with various molecular-orbital techniques such as HMO, ω-SCF—HMO, and ppp semiempirical SCF—LCAO—MO has shown that the enzyme reactions can be understood in terms of electronic reactivity indices. Furthermore, it appeared possible to suggest the enzyme specificity from a systematic analysis of discrepancy between mo theoretically predicted and observed reaction sites in substrates with 2- and 8-oxy substituents. In other words, the discrepancy does not necessarily indicate the failure of the MO melthodes for such substrates, but it is possible to utilize the result in correlating with binding specificity of the ES complex. This has been done specifically for 2-chloropurine.Among several electronic reacxtivity indices, frontier orbital density, superdelocalizability, and localization energy have been proved to be very useful. Diferent MO methods gave, in general, consistent results.

    Notes: The products from base-specific, dideoxy-nucleotide chain-termination DNA sequencing reactions catalyzed by the modified T7 DNA polymerase have been analyzed by using the technique of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Preliminary experiments were performed to determine detection limits for a synthetic mixture of mixed-base single-stranded DNA which contained a 14-mer, a 21-mer, and a 41-mer; acceptable spectra, showing peaks for each component, were obtainable for samples that contained as little as 5 fmol per component. Initial sequencing reactions were therefore carried out on 2-pmol amounts of a short synthetic template that was 45 nucleotides in length, employing 2 pmol of 12-mer as the primer strand. This provided readable sequence information out to the 19th base past the primer. Using a 21-mer primer, nearly the entire sequence of the template could be read.

    Notes: In a study designed to examine the nature of short-lived, electrophilic intermediates liberated during decomposition of N,N′-bis(2-chloroethyl)-N-nitrosourea (BCNU) in vitro and also on administration of BCNU (140 μmol i.p.) to rats in vivo, both on-line and off-line LC/MS/MS techniques were employed to detect and characterize the corresponding glutathione (GSH) adducts present in incubation media and excreted into bile, respectively. In vitro, four GSH conjugates were formed and these were identified, on the basis of their product ion spectra, as products of S-and N-carbamoylation and alkylation reactions. Although the relative proportions of these in vitro adducts were found to depend on the molar ratios of GSH and BCNU, the major adduct under all conditions studied proved to be S-(2-chloroethylcarbamoyl)glutathione (SCG). Analysis of untreated bile samples by means of on-line LC/MS/MS with constant neutral loss (129 u) and precursor ion (m/z 179) scanning techniques again led to the detection of four GSH conjugates, although only one of these (SCG) was common to the group of adducts identified in vitro. All of the GSH conjugates detected in bile represented products of S-carbamoylation, indicating that the alkylating moiety released from BCNU undergoes reactions in vivo with nucleophiles other than GSH.

    Notes: Density functional theory is tested on a large ensemble of model compounds containing a wide variety of functional groups to understand better its ability to reproduce experimental molecular geometries, relative conformational energies, and dipole moments. We find that gradient-corrected density functional methods with triple-ζ plus polarization basis sets reproduce geometries well. Most bonds tend to be approximately 0.015 Å longer than the experimental results. Bond angles are very well reproduced and most often fall within a degree of experiment. Torsions are, on average, within 4 degrees of the experimental values. For relative conformational energies, comparisons with Hartree-Fock calculations and correlated conventional ab initio methods indicate that gradient-corrected density functionals easily surpass the Hartree-Fock approximation and give results which are nearly as accurate as MP2 calculations. For the 35 comparisons of conformational energies for which experimental data was available, the root mean square (rms) deviation for gradient-corrected functionals was approximately 0.5 kcal mol-1. Without gradient corrections, the rms deviation is 0.8 kcal mol-1, which is even less accurate than the Hartree-Fock calculations. Calculations with extended basis sets and with gradient corrections incorporated into the self-consistent procedure generate dipole moments with an rms deviation of 5%. Dipole moments from local density functional calculations, with more modest basis sets, can be scaled down to achieve roughly the same accuracy. In this study, all density functional geometries were generated by local density functional self-consistent calculations with gradient corrections added in a perturbative fashion. Such an approach generates results that are almost identical to the self-consistent gradient-corrected calculations, which require significantly more computer time. Timings on scalar and vector architectures indicate that, for moderately sized systems, our density functional implementation requires only slightly less computer resources than established Hartree-Fock programs. However, our density functional calculations scale much better and are significantly faster than their MP2 counterparts, whose results they approach. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: In 2,6-di-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, two successive, site-specific hydrogen transfers are necessary to account for the loss of carbon atoms 1, 2, 3 and 4, together with one hydrogen from C-8. The deuterated methyl geranate required for this study was readily converted to pseudo-ionone, in which a similar fission was shown to occur. Previous predictions about the β-ionone mass spectrum2 have been shown to be substantially correct, and its similarity to the mass spectra of benzylidence acetones is pointed out.
