    Genetic inactivation of prohormone convertase (PC1) causes a reduction in cholecystokinin (CCK) levels in the hippocampus, amygdala, pons and medulla in mouse brain that correlates with the degree of colocalization of PC1 and CCK mRNA in these structures in rat brain (2004)

    Notes: Prohormone convertase (PC1) is found in endocrine cell lines that express cholecystokinin (CCK) mRNA and process pro CCK to biologically active products. Other studies have demonstrated that PC1 may be a one of the enzymes responsible for the endoproteolytic cleavages that occur in pro CCK during its biosynthesis and processing. Prohormone convertase 1 (PC1) has a distribution that is similar to cholecystokinin (CCK) in rat brain. A moderate to high percentage of CCK mRNA-positive neurons express PC1 mRNA. CCK levels were measured in PC1 knockout and control mice to assess the degree to which loss of PC1 changed CCK content. CCK levels were decreased 62% in hippocampus, 53% in amygdala and 57% in pons-medulla in PC1 knockout mice as compared to controls. These results are highly correlated with the colocalization of CCK and PC1. The majority of CCK mRNA-positive neurons in the pyramidal cell layer of the hippocampus express PC1 mRNA and greater than 50% of CCK mRNA-positive neurons in several nuclei of the amygdala also express PC1. These results demonstrate that PC1 is important for CCK processing. PC2 and PC5 are also widely colocalized with CCK. It may be that PC2, PC5 or another non-PC enzyme are able to substitute for PC1 and sustain production of some amidated CCK. Together these enzymes may represent a redundant system to insure the production of CCK.

    Notes: Background  The clinical history of a given pigmented lesion could influence the therapeutic decision. Teledermatology and automated image analysis also hold great potential for revolutionizing dermatology services.Aim  The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of users with different experiences in dermoscopy with and without information about patients and their history compared with classification by an automated analysing system.Setting  One hundred and fifty-seven dermoscopic images of pigmented lesions, taken and proved by histopathology at the Pigmented Lesions Clinic of the Department of Dermatology of the University Tuebingen, Germany, were included.Methods  All images were viewed by three investigators with different experience: excellent (A), average (B) and beginner (C). In the first dermoscopic classification, no information was available. After 3 months the same images were once more classified by the three investigators, now with the information about the patients and their history. The melanocytic lesions were tested by the Tuebinger Mole Analyser.Results  For user A the sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy revealed no improvement on including the history (81.3% to 84.4%, 94.6% to 92.3% and 92.0% to 90.7%), whereas user B clearly improved his results (75.0% to 87.5%, 76.9% to 88.5% and 76.5% to 88.3%). No change in the sensitivity was seen by user C (84.4%), but there was a clear improvement in the specificity (69.2% to 87.7%) and diagnostic accuracy (72.2% to 87.0%). Using the computer algorithm, a sensitivity of 100%, a specificity of 76.9% and a diagnostic accuracy of 81.9% were achieved.Conclusions  The study revealed results relevant to the use of dermoscopy: (1) continuing dermoscopic education influences the diagnostic accuracy; (2) the history is helpful for averaged users and beginners in dermoscopy; (3) digital image analysis has the highest sensitivity, but a lower specificity compared to the clinicians; and (4) digital dermoscopy could be used for store-and-forward systems in teledermoscopy.

    Notes: Landraces of tetraploid and hexaploid wheat from the Northern Negev in Israel were evaluated over two years for their grain quality attributes. Twenty-one populations of tetraploid wheat (Triticum durum, represented by 56 accessions) and 8 populations of hexaploid wheat (T. aestivum and T. compactum, represented by 13 accessions) were compared with 3 and 4 modern improved Israeli cultivars of tetraploid and hexaploid reheat, respectively. This comparison allowed to estimate the progress made in the improvement of gram quality m present-day cultivars.Except for grain protein content in the hexaploids, significant variation was revealed among landraces in kernel weight, protein content (tetraploids), sedimentation, mixograph score and carotin content. The best modern cultivars were comparable to the best landraces in kernel weight and carotin content (tetraploids), indicating that modern wheat breeding maximized kernel weight and carotin content, as compared with the tested landraces. Gram protein content and/or quality was not maximized in modern cultivars and its improvement was deemed possible by introgression from the best landraces in this respect.

    Notes: Sorghum, Sorghum bicolor L. Moench, is grown mostly in semi-arid climates where unpredictable drought stress constitutes a major production constraint. To investigate hybrid performance at different levels of drought stress, 12 single-cross hybrids of grain sorghum and their 24 parent lines were grown in eight site-season combinations in a semi-arid area of Kenya. In addition, a subset of 20 genotypes was evaluated at the seedling stage under polyethylene glycol (PEG)-induced drought stress. Environmental means for grain yield ranged from 47 to 584 g/m2reflecting the following situations: two non-stress, one moderate pre-flowering, four moderate terminal and one extreme drought stress. Mean hybrid superiority over mid-parent values was 54% for grain yield and 35% for above-ground biomass. Across environments, hybrids out-yielded two local varieties by 12%. Differences in yield potential contributed to grain yield differences in all stress environments. Early anthesis was most important for specific adaptation to extreme drought. Field performance was not related to growth reduction and osmotic adjustment under PEG-induced drought stress. In conclusion, exploitation of hybrid vigour could improve the productivity of sorghum in semi-arid areas.

    Notes: Abstract. Drought resistance in terms of plant production under conditions of drought stress was previously defined for several spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) varieties. Four varieties, differing in their drought resistance by this definition, were compared in their physiological responses to water stress, as induced by polyethylene glycol 6000 in the growth medium.Drought resistance was associated with osmotic adjustment, total root mass production under stress, maintenance of some stomatal permeability under stress, and maintenance of turgor at a given level of drought stress, by either osmotic adjustment or elevated plant water potential.Drought resistance was not associated, in this experiment, with plant top growth under stress or non-stress conditions, maximum leaf area per plant, plant transpiration, and total root mass production under non-stress conditions.

    Isolation and characterization of variant wheat cultivars for ABA sensitivity (1995)

    Notes: Genetic variants for abscisic acid (ABA) sensitivity are important for investigating the role of ABA sensitivity in conditioning plant response to environmental stress, and especially to those soil conditions that may elicit a root-mediated hormonal signal. This study was performed in order to isolate variation in ABA sensitivity among wheat (Triticum aestivum and T. durum) cultivars, as characterized by two plant responses: (i) shoot growth reduction in response to 5×10−2mol m−3 ABA (racemic) in the root medium of hydroponically grown plants, and (ii) changes in transpiration and gas exchange in a bioassay of detached leaves (leaflaminac) infused with 10−4mol m−3 ABA.Very significant (P≤0.01) and repeatable differences were found among 36 wheat cultivars and 19 landraces in the growth rate in ABA-containing nutrient solutions, expressed as a percentage of the growth rate in control nutrient solutions (ABA/control ratio). In duplicate experiments, the ABA/control ratio ranged between 60 and 83% for the least sensitive cultivars (V2151-3, Bethlehem, K1056 and Sunstar) and between 9 and 19% for the most sensitive cultivars (Sundor, Comet, Barkaec and V5). In the transpiration bioassay, performed with seven selected cultivars, it was found that the reductions in transpiration of ABA-infused leaves corresponded very well with the reductions in growth in response to ABA in the root media. Measurement of gas exchange in the detached leaves of two cultivars differing in ABA sensitivity (Bethlehem and Sundor) showed that variable ABA sensitivity was expressed very well in the stomatal conductance, carbon exchange rate (CER) and photosynthetic capacity (CER/Ci ratio) of the leaf. These results therefore allowed us to isolate wheat variants for ABA sensitivity and to conclude that, while ABA sensitivity is expressed in the growth of plants challenged by ABA in the root medium, the control of sensitivity resides, at least partly, in the leaf.

    Immunohistochemical localization of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors in primary and metastatic malignant melanomas (1997)

    Notes: In embryos morphogenetically active cells transiently express the cholinergic system comprising cholinesterase activity and muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. Malignant melanomas develop from melanocytes, which are derived from the neural crest. Neural crest cells express the embryonic muscarinic system during migration. Using the monoclonal antibody M35, we now show that normal melanocytes carry no muscarinic receptors, whereas malignant melanoma cells express them again. In primary melanomas and metastatic melanomas, we identified muscarinic receptors in solid strands or groups of atypical cells. In all primary malignant melanomas studied we found inhomogeneous distributions of M35-inimunoreactivity subdividing the tumors into three different zones. In the tumor center, groups or single cells often showed only little or even no immunofluorescence. In contrast, pericentrally we detected strong immunostaining in the conglomerations of atypical melanocytes. In the peripheral infiltration zone, intensely fluorescent cells in clusters or single, were spreading into the normal tissue, leading to a more patchy staining pattern. Melanocytes of nevi also possess muscarinic receptors, showing similar distribution patterns as in the melanoma. We suggest that in malignant melanomas muscarinic receptors might play a regulative role in infiltrative growth and metastasis.
