    Notes: The tachykinins are among major regulators of bone marrow (BM) functions. The BM is resident to two stem cells: hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The adult BM has a finite number of HSCs that are required to replenish the immune system throughout life. MSCs surround BM vasculature, while HSCs are located close to the endosteal regions. The mechanisms by which the tachykinins regulate hematopoiesis require further research. Innervated fibers in the BM form synapse-like structures with MSCs. We propose that tachykinin-mediated effects on MSCs are relevant to hematopoiesis, because MSCs: 1) generate hematopoietic supporting stromal cells, 2) regulate the movement of cells in and out of the BM, and 3) regulate inflammatory responses in the BM. This study focuses on the truncated tachykinin receptor (NK-1-Tr). Its expression and regulation on MSCs mirrors the brain, but contrasts BM stroma. NK-1-Tr is predominantly expressed on MSCs. Because of limited receptor desensitization, we propose that NK-1-Tr on MSCs could allow rapid responses to the tachykinins so as to maintain the vascular/barrier functions of the BM, regulate immune responses to infectious agents that could be threat to BM failure, and respond to rapid loss of blood. Part of the mechanisms by which the tachykinins regulate MSCs functions involve novel interactions between IFN-γ and MHC class II. The findings described in this study hold clues to the role of tachykinins on hematopoiesis and adult stem cell functions in the BM. This report adds to an understanding of the crosstalk within the neural-immune-hematopoietic axis.

    Notes: [Auszug] The original motivation for the theory4-7 was to provide an explanation for the warps in the outer parts of spiral galaxies, and it has satisfactorily explained several observations8. The model shows that the warp arises as a self-excited bending wave which is driven unstable because of its motion ...

    Notes: Abstract A synthetic cry1Ab gene coding for an insecticidal crystal protein (ICP) of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) was transferred to brinjal (eggplant) by cocultivating cotyledonary explants with Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Transformant plants resistant to kanamycin were regenerated. Hybridization experiments demonstrated gene integration and mRNA expression. Double-antibody sandwich ELISA analysis revealed Bt toxin protein expression in the transgenic plants. The expression resulted in a significant insecticidal activity of transgenic brinjal fruits against the larvae of fruit borer (Leucinodes orbonalis). The results also demonstrated that a synthetic gene based on monocot codon usage can be expressed in dicotyledonous plants for insect control.

    Notes: Hydroconversion of n-heptane and toluene has been studied over a commercially proven Ni-W/SiO2-Al2O3 amorphous base hydrocracking catalyst (suitable for maximizing middle distillates production from heavier feedstocks) under a wide range of operating conditions (pressure: 400-1200 psig; temperature: 315-360°C, liquid hourly space velocity (LHSV) ≃ 1 h-1 and molar hydrogen/hydrocarbon feed ratio: 6-8) to assess the hydrogenation and cracking activities of the catalyst screening. Hydroisomerization followed by hydrocracking, ad hydrogenation followed by isomerization have been found to be the major reaction with n-heptane and toluene respectively as the feeds. The hydroconversion of toluene gives a very high selectivity of hydrogenated product. With n-heptane, a very high selectivity of hydroisomerized product, together with a high ratio of hydroisomerized to hydrocracked product, is obtained.
