    Notes: Abstract The authors present a study of the intrinsic anatomy of the gluteus medius m. and of its innervation through the caudal branch of the superior gluteal n. The existence of an intramuscular tendon in the thickness of the gluteus medius was constantly prooved in 40 muscles. The relations of the intrinsic fibrous structure of the muscle and its innervation were studied. The authors deduce from that the topography of a gluteus medius incision, with respect to a safety area towards its innervation, which leads to an exposure of the acetabulum that is satisfying and gives opportunities of a sound repair after the surgery of the hip joint through the transgluteal approach. They propose the “anterior hemimyotomy of the gluteus medius m” designation.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Les auteurs présentent une étude de l'anatomie intrinsèque du m. moyen fessier (MF) et de son innervation par le rameau caudal du n. glutéal supérieur (NGS). 40 muscles ont été étudiés. L'existence d'une lame tendineuse dans l'épaisseur du MF a été constamment mise en évidence. Les rapports entre les éléments de l'architecture fibreuse intrinsèque du muscle et son innervation ont été étudiés. Les auteurs en déduisent la topographie d'une incision du MF respectant une zone de sécurité vis à vis de son innervation, procurant une exposition acétabulaire satisfaisante et des possibilités de réparation solide après chirurgie de l'articulation coxo-fémorale par voie d'abord transglutéale, et proposent la dénomination “hémimyotomie antérieure du MF”.

    Notes: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent angiogenic factor with a unique specificity for vascular endothelial cells. In addition to its role in vasculogenesis and embryonic angiogenesis, VEGF is implicated in pathologic neovascularization associated with tumors and diabetic retinopathy. Four different constructs of a short variant of VEGF sufficient for receptor binding were overexpressed in Escherichia coli, refolded, purified, and crystallized in five different space groups. In order to facilitate the product on of heavy atom derivatives, single cysteine mutants were designed based on the crystal structure of platelet-derived growth factor. A construct consisting of residues 8 to 109 was crystallized in space group P21, with cell parameters a = 55.6 Å, b = 60.4 Å, c = 77.7 Å, β = 90.0°, and four monomers in the asymmetric unit. Native and derivative data were collected for two of the cysteine mutants as well as for wild-type VEGF. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Polymer solvent interactions in the ternary system high molecular weight polystyrene (HMPS), low molecular weight polystyrene (LMPS), and dioctyl phthalate (DOP) have been characterized by means of intrinsic viscometry (IV), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and static light scattering (SLS). Excluded volume exponents have been extracted from the scaling of intrinsic viscosity and translational diffusivity with polymer molecular weight for a mixed solvent of 13 wt % LMPS/87 wt % DOP. The value of the excluded volume exponent, v = 0.45, indicates that HMPS in the mixed solvent DOP/LMPS has apparently assumed a reduced conformation relative to the theta condition. However, SLS measures of the second virial coefficient (A2) confirm that DOP is a theta solvent at our experimental temperature of 22°C and indicate that the addition of LMPS increases A2. SLS also suggests that neither solvent component is strongly preferentially adsorped into the HMPS coil. Our system then is a mixture of a theta solvent and a good solvent that exhibits poor solvent scaling behavior. We believe this to be the first demonstration of such behavior in a system that does not exhibit appreciable preferential adsorption. We conclude by examining our observations in the context of current descriptions of mixed solvent thermodynamics. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A series of linear weak polyelectrolytes containing β-cyclodextrin pendant groups was synthesized by chemical modification of poly(1-vinylimidazole). Studies on their solution behaviour as a functon of pH and the nature and ionic strength of added salts showed original features which are explained in terms of competitive residue-residue and residue-solvent interactions and anion binding to cyclodextrin moieties.

    Notes: Impact modifiers with grafted PMMA shell are used to modify polymethylmethacrylate matrix. The composition of the shell is chosen to enhance the interactions at the modifier/matrix interface and to obtain good dispersion of the impact modifier in order to optimize impact strength of the blend. The degree of interactions at the interface is characterized by the interfacial region where the chains of the matrix mix with those of the shell of the modifier. The deviation of the measured viscoelastic behavior of these blends from that predicted by the emulsion models has been attributed to the formation of the network structure due to the association of matrix chains with the shell of the modifier. It is expected that the network structure will decrease with increasing frequency and, as such, the effective volume of the particle is frequency dependent. This study uses the emulsion models to estimate the larger effective volume of the particle and, therefore, the extent of interaction at the interface. In the blends of this study it can be shown that at low modifier levels the solvent swelling of the modifier shell results in stronger interactions with the matrix; this effect is negated by the aggregation of particles at higher modifier loadings. The interaction of core modifier with the PMMA matrix seems to be similar to that of the core-shell modifier. This would not be expected from the calculated interfacial thickness of approximately 4 nm. It is, therefore, proposed that during melt-processing the core modifier surface was altered due to grafting of the matrix PMMA chains during melt-blending to (BA/St) copolymer of the core modifier thus reducing the interfacial tension. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The linear viscoelastic behavior of model rubbertoughened polymer melts has been studied. The most significant influence of the dispersed crosslinked rubber phase on the melt rheology of the blends is the existence of a secondary plateau for the storage modulus G′ at low frequencies. This behavior was ascribed to a percolation phenomenon, leading to the formation of a threedimensional network of inclusions, and contributing to the elasticity at low frequencies of the blend. Two different systems were investigated: (a) a polystyrene matrix with crosslinked and structured latex particles and (b) silicon oil matrices with homogeneous crosslinked PMMA particles. An initial shearing history was found to influence the dynamic mechanical properties of the molten blends and in particular to lower the lowfrequency plateau value for G′. During a subsequent annealing, the plateau modulus increases again. These results are in agreement with the assumption of a particle network.

    Notes: Human anti-factor VIII antibodies (anti-FVIII) neutralize Factor VIII (FVIII) procoagulant activity. These antibodies appear in about 5-15 per cent of severely affected patients with haemophilia A treated with FVIII concentrates (Mannucci, 1993). In order to obtain non-thrombogenic materials able to interact specifically with anti-FVIII, amino acids residues that mimic part of the FVIII molecule recognized by anti-FVIII have been grafted. Several cross-linked polystyrenes were functionalized with sulphonate and tyrosine sulphamide groups or tyrosine derivatives sulphamide groups such as methyl ester tyrosine, or the peptides aspartic acid methyl amide tyrosine, tyrosine aspatic acid methyl amide or aspartic acid aspatic acid methyl amide tyrosine.The in vitro removal of anti-FVIII from haemophilic A plasma was performed on different supports. These polymers exhibit strong and selective affinity for the anti-FVIII. The amont of adsorbed anti-FVIII varies with the composition of the polymer and a maximum is achieved for 15-35 per cent of amino acid sulphamide groups. The influence of different chemical groups on the surface of the polymeric solid supports on the adsorption of anti-FVIII was also studied.

    Notes: Seven new steroidal polyamines derived from bile acids, either lithocholic or deoxycholic acid, have been studied as DNA-binding agents using four complimentary methods: an ethidium displacement assay, observed changes in the thermal denaturation of poly[d(AT)], effects on hyperchromicity of DNA, and circular dichroism. In addition, modelling studies were conducted to examine the electrostatic surface potential of the polycations. The results point to a key role for a large hydrophobic surface area on the steroid in addition to the Coulombic attraction by ammonium and guanidinium groups on the steroid interacting with the polyphosphate backbone.

    Notes: Tetraglycidyl 4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane (TGDDM) undergoes homopolymerization on heating. Intramolecular reactions which compete with crosslinking favor the formation of cyclic structures with increasing thermal and fire resistance of the resin, whereas physical mechanical properties tend to decrease.The mechanism of thermal decomposition of TGDDM is studied by thermogravimetry, differential scanning calorimetry and thermal volatilization analysis with characterization of volatiles evolved and residue left. Thermal degradation of poly-(TGDDM) starts at 260°C with elimination of water from secondary alcoholic groups which is a typical pathway for epoxy resin degradation. Resulting unsaturations weaken bonds in the β-position and provoke the first chain breaking at allyl-amine and allyl-either bonds. With increasing temperature, saturated alkyl-ether bonds and alkyl carbon-carbon bonds are broken first, followed by the most stable alkyl-aryl bonds at T〉365°C. The combustion performance of TGDDM is discussed on the basis of the thermal degradation behavior.
