    Notes: Abstract The 25 April 1992 Cape Mendocino earthquake generated a tsunami characterized by both coastal trapped edge wave and non-trapped tsunami modes that propagated north and south along the U.S. West Coast. Both observed and synthetic time series at Crescent City and North Spit are consistent with the zero-order edge wave mode solution for a semi-infinite sloping beach depth profile. Wave amplitudes at Crescent City were about twice that observed at North Spit, in spite of the fact that the source region was three times farther from Crescent City than North Spit. The largest observed amplitude was due to an edge wave which arrived almost three hours after the initial onset of the tsunami; since such waves are highly localized nearshore, this suggests that the enhanced responsiveness at Crescent City is at least partly due to local dynamic processes. Furthermore, the substantially delayed arrival of this wave, which was generated at the southern end of the Cascadia Subduction Zone, has significant implications for hazard mitigation efforts along the entire U.S. West Coast. Specifically, this study demonstrates that slow-moving but very energetic edge wave modes could be generated by future large tsunamigenic earthquakes in the CSZ, and that these might arrive unexpectedly at coastal communities several hours after the initial tsunami waves have subsided.

    Notes: Abstract. The role of methionine residues on the fast inactivation of the sodium channel from toad skeletal muscle fibers was studied with the mild oxidant chloramine-T (CT). Isolated segments of fibers were voltage clamped in a triple Vaseline® gap chamber. Sodium current was isolated by replacing potassium ions by tetramethylammonium ions in the external and internal solutions. Externally applied chloramine-CT was found to render noninactivating a large fraction of sodium channels and to slow down the fast inactivation mechanism of the remainder fraction of inactivatable channels. The action of CT appeared to proceed first by slowing and then removing the fast inactivation mechanism. The voltage dependence of the steady-state inactivation of the inactivatable CT-treated currents was shifted +10 mV. CT also had a blocking effect on the sodium current, but was without effect on the activation mechanism. The effects of CT were time and concentration dependent and irreversible. The use of high CT concentrations and/or long exposure times was found to be deleterious to the fiber. This side effect precluded the complete removal of fast inactivation. The effects of CT on the fast inactivation of the sodium current can be explained assuming that at least two methionine residues are critically involved in the mechanism underlying this process.

    Notes: Abstract Cytochrome P450 genes from the CYP2A, CYP2B, and CYP2F subfamilies form a tight cluster which we have localized on the detailed physical map of human chromosome 19. The corresponding three gene subfamilies are also clustered in the mouse genome, on the region of chromosome 7 known to be syntenic to human chromosome 19. One hundred eight cosmid clones from the human P450 region were assembled into a single contig of 350 kb, restriction mapped, and probed with cDNAs from the three gene subfamilies. A total of 11 genes were identified in humans, including five from the 2A subfamily, three from the 2B subfamily, and three from the 2F subfamily; at least six of the 11 are pseudogenes. The organization of the genes, with members of the three subfamilies intermixed, indicates that the evolution of this gene cluster has been complex. The modern gene arrangement in humans is probably the result of a series of tandem duplications, plus at least one inverted duplication. The identification of all genes and pseudogenes in this cluster also makes it possible to determine the origins of some previously known variant P450 transcripts.

    Notes: Summary Previous observations made in our laboratory in a waking behaving Cebus Apella monkey revealed that neurons of the Pulvinar nucleus of the thalamus discharged preferentially in relation to intentional movements of the limbs and eyes. We give here a description of further observations made in two waking, behaving Cebus Apella monkeys trained to perform two tasks: in the first to make saccadic eye movements to eccentrically placed visual targets; in the second, to make projection movements of the arm and hand to touch targets within arm's reach. The electrical activity of thalamic neurons was recorded extracellularly and records were made simultaneously of the horizontal eye movements and of tasks events. Four-hundred-sixty-five neurons were studied: of these, the activity of 272 could be correlated with behavioral events, while the remaining 193 could not be correlated or classified in this manner. The cells identified were classed in five groups, as follows: (1) neurons active during attentive fixation of a target, but which did not respond to our ordinary visual test stimuli; (2) neurons active during projection movements of the arm or manipulation with the hand, but which were not active during casual movements of the hand or arm, and which were not activated by passive somatic sensory stimuli; (3) those active before, during or after evoked saccadic movements of the eyes, but which were not activated by our testing visual stimuli; (4) neurons active during tracking movements of the eyes, or during projection movements of the arm, alone, but which discharged maximally when these two events occurred simultaneously; and, (5) neurons active during both saccadic movements of the eyes and during projection movements of the arm. We regularly observed, for each of these classes of neurons of the Pulvinar, that optimal correlated activity depended upon the intentional nature of the associated behavioral events, and the animal's attention to them. We conclude that there exists at the level of the Pulvinar a neural correlate of certain evolving behavioral events, and particularly of intentional activity such as the projection of the arm or the direction of gaze towards targets of interest in the immediately surrounding visual environment. The regions of the Pulvinar containing neurons with these properties are reciprocally related to association areas of the Neocortex known to contain neurons with similar properties. It can then be concluded from both anatomical and electrophysiological observations that the Pulvinar is an essential part of the system controlling these complex behavioral events.

    Notes: Abstract Objective: A series of studies was undertaken to determine the cytochrome P450 isoform(s) involved in naproxen demethylation and whether this included the same isoforms reported to be involved in the metabolism of other NSAIDs. Methods: (S)-Naproxen was incubated with human liver microsomes in the presence of a NADPH-generating system and the formation of desmethylnaproxen was measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). To further clarify the specific isoforms involved, experiments were conducted with preparations expressing only a single P450 isoform (vaccinia virus-expressed cells and microsomes derived from a lymphoblastoid cell line, each transfected with specific P450 cDNAs) as well as inhibition studies using human liver microsomes and putative specific P450 inhibitors. Results: In human liver microsomes (n=7), desmethylnaproxen formation was observed with a mean kM of 92 (21) μmol · l−1, Vmax of 538 pmol · min−1 · mg−1 protein and Cint2 (reflective of a second binding site) of 0.36 μl · min−1 · mg−1 protein. This Cint2 term was added since Eadie-Scatchard analysis suggested the involvement of more than one enzyme. Studies using putative specific P450 inhibitors demonstrated inhibition of this␣reaction by sulfaphenazole, (apparent Ki= 1.6 μmol · l−1), warfarin (apparent Ki=27 μmol · l−1), piroxicam (apparent Ki=23 μmol · l−1) and tolbutamide (apparent Ki=128 μmol · l−1). No effect was observed when α-naphthoflavone and troleandomycin were employed as inhibitors, but reaction with furafylline produced, on average, a maximum inhibition of 23%. At a naproxen concentration of 150 μmol · l−1, formation of desmethylnaproxen was observed in cells expressing P450 1A2, 2C8, 2C9 and its allelic variant 2C9R144C. To further characterize these reactions, saturation kinetics experiments were conducted for the P450s 1A2, 2C8 and 2C9. The kM and Vmax for P450 1A2 were 189.5 μmol · l−1 and 7.3 pmol · min−1 · pmol−1 P450, respectively. Likewise, estimates of kM and Vmax for P450 2C9 were 340.5 μmol · l−1 and 41.4 pmol · min−1 · pmol−1 P450, respectively. Reliable estimates of kM and Vmax could not be made for P450 2C8 due to the nonsaturable nature of the process over the concentration range studied. Conclusion: Multiple cytochrome P450 isoforms (P450 1A2, 2C8 and 2C9) appear to be involved in naproxen demethylation, although 2C9 appears to be the predominant form.
