    Notes: Abstract Apolipoprotein E (APOE) is a lipoprotein expressed in liver and brain as one of three isoforms (APOE 2, APOE 3 and APOE 4). Recent findings suggest that the presence of APOE 4 is associated with an increased risk for both familial Alzheimer's disease and late-onset Alzheimer's disease. We extended these observations by determining the frequency of APOE alleles in patients with pathologically confirmed Alzheimer's Disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), diffuse Lewy Body disease (DLBD), AD with concomitant PD pathology, demented PD patients without or with concomitant AD pathology and in schizophrenics with a progressive dementia (SCHIZ+DEM). The APOE genotype was determined by restriction digestion of polymerase chain reaction-amplified DNA isolated from frozen brain samples. The frequency of the APOE ε4 allele was highest among sporadic AD and DLBD patients (0.30 and 0.38, respectively) and lowest in the SCHIZ+DEM and non-demented PD patients (0.06 and 0.1, respectively). Thus, the APOE ε4 allele is over-represented selectively in patients with dementias associated with plaques and tangles and/or cortical Lewy bodies, but not in demented schizophrenics or non-demented PD patients.

    Notes: Abstract Niemann-Pick Type C disease (NPC) is a cholesterol storage disease with defects in the intracellular trafficking of exogenous cholesterol derived from low density lipoproteins. In NPC cases with a chronic progressive course, neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) that consist of paired helical filaments (PHFs) have been reported. To determine if NPC tangles contain abnormal tau proteins (known as PHFtau) similar to those found in Alzheimer's disease (AD) tangles, we examined the brains of five NPC cases by immunohistochemical and Western blot methods using a library of antibodies to defined epitopes of PHFtau. We show here that PHFtau in tangle-rich NPC brains is indistinguishable from PHFtau in AD brains. We speculate, that the generation of PHFtau in NPC may induce a cascade of pathological events that contribute to the widespread degeneration of neurons, and that these events may be similar in NPC and AD.

    Notes: Liquid Crystals with Aliphatic Groups between Cyclohexane Rings - Synthesis of 1,4-Bis(4-n-alkylcyclohexyl)butanes and Esters of 4-[4-(4-n-Alkylcyclohexyl)-butyl]cyclohexanolsThe synthesis of 1,4-bis-(4-n-alkylcyclohexyl) butanes (1), esters of 4-[-(4-n-alkylcyclohexyl)butyl]cyclohexanols (2) and some analogous aromatic compounds are described. The thermal stability of mesophases of these compounds are in the order of the analogous ethylene-bridged liquid crystals. The reason for this result seems to be the combination of molecular rigidity and conformational flexibility.

    Notes: Photochemistry and Photophysics of 3-(2-Isoxazolinyl)-phenylketones3-Benzoyl-Δ2-1,2-oxazolines (1-6) are formed by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between benzoylnitril-N-oxide (8) and dihydrofurane 9 or 1,3-dioxep-5-enes (10a-c). The preparative yields are small due to the competitive dimerization of the dipole 8. Two stereoisomers are obtained by using 2-substituted 1,3-dioxep-5-enes as dipolarophiles. The different steric position of the substituents in 3-6 gives rise to different spectral data. The synthesized ketones possess triplet states with a high degree of charge transfer character. Therefore, the ability to H-abstraction reaction from alcohols is small. For ketone 2 and methanol as H-donor a rate constant of kHMeOH = 4,1 · 102 M-1s-1 is determined. Also by electron transfer reactions with triethylamine and some onium compounds the reactivity of the T1 of the ketones 1-6 is less compared to those of nπ* excited ketones. The photolysis of the ketones takes place very unselectively and leads to a product mixture. The quantum yields for the decay of the ketones are 10-2 to 10-3.
