    Notes: In order to determine whether adrenal and gonadal weak androgens are utilized to form active androgens in human hair, we studied the expression of mRNA for androgen receptor (AR), 5α-reductase and 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17β-HSD) in cultured dermal papilla cells (DPCs) from various body sites. AR mRNA was expressed in beard (Be) and axillary hair (Ax) DPCs from both sexes, but only at a low level in DPCs from occipital scalp hair (OS). Type I 5α-reductase mRNA was expressed by all DPCs. Type II 5α-reductase mRNA was identified in beard DPCs, but was absent from OS and Ax DPCs. Type II 17β-HSD mRNA was strongly expressed in outer root sheath cells (ORSCs), while DPCs except for male Ax expressed no type II 17β-HSD mRNA. In contrast, type III 17β-HSD mRNA was strongly expressed in Be DPCs and Ax DPCs from both sexes; ORSCs showed a low level of expression. Expression of type III 17β-HSD mRNA was not regulated by androgen in DPCs. These results suggest that the sensitivity of hairs to androgen is partially controlled by the site-specific expression of AR, 5α-reductase and 17β-HSD in DPCs.

    Notes: The effect of thermal annealing on the InAlAs/InGaAs modulation-doped structure, passivated with a SiN film, was investigated. In contrast to the capless sample, the passivated modulation-doped sample exhibited negligible degradation in the two-dimensional electron gas concentration (NS) after annealing at 280 °C, indicating that SiN is an efficient passivation material to ensure good thermal stability for the InAlAs/InGaAs modulation-doped structure. In addition, partial recovery in NS was found by annealing the SiN-passivated sample that had experienced serious NS degradation. A series of secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) measurements and Hall effect measurements revealed that the recovery of NS is associated with the discharge of fluorine atoms from the Si-doped n-type InAlAs layer. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Considerable relaxation of the high internal stresses which arise in HfN thin films during their deposition by a sputtering method has been accomplished through bombarding the films with energetic silicon ions. The internal stresses have been estimated from the measurements of the surface curvature. Our results indicate a relaxation of the internal compressive stresses in the films, which occurs via a transport of the interstitial defects within the thermal spikes created by a post-deposition energetic ion bombardment. The mechanical properties of HfN films before and after the treatment have been studied by depth-sensing indentation technique while the structural analysis has been made using x-ray diffraction, Rutherford backscattering, and Auger electron spectroscopy. Ion bombardment did not affect resistivity of the thin films while improving their plastic properties. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract Background: Irinotecan (CPT-11) is metabolized by esterase to form a SN-38, which is further conjugated by UGT1A1. Genetic polymorphism has been shown in a promoter region of UGT1A1 and is related to its activity. We investigated whether there might be an inter-individual difference in pharmacokinetics of SN-38 and its glucuronide, depending on the genotypes of UGT1A1. Patients and methods: Nine male patients with lung cancer were treated with irinotecan (50 mg/m2) and carboplatin. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated with full sampling plasma data. Genotypes were determined by analyzing the sequence of TATA box of UGT1A1 of genomic DNA from the patients. Results: The genotyping analysis revealed one heterozygote (6/7) and one homozygote (7/7) for (TA)7TAA allele (UGT1A1*28). The remaining seven patients were homozygote for (TA)6TAA allele (6/6, wild type). The metabolic ratios (SN-38/SN-38 glucuronide) in the patient with 7/7 genotype were uncharacteristically higher than those in the patients with other genotypes (6/6 and 6/7). Biliary index was 6980 versus 2180 ± 1110 (range 840–3730) in patients with 7/7 versus 6/6 genotypes, respectively. Conclusion: These results support the idea that the patient with 7/7 genotype has an impaired capacity for glucuronidation of SN-38.

    Notes: Abstract: We have measured the dissociation of 8B in the Coulomb field of 208Pb at Ein=51.9 MeV/nucleon and extracted the cross section of the 7Be(p,γ)8B reaction at 0.4 ≤ Erel≤ 3 MeV, which is of importance for the 8B solar-neutrino production rate. The extracted astrophysical S17 factors are consistent with our earlier Coulomb dissociation measurement, and agree with the values deduced from the direct capture measurements by Filippone et al., Vaughn et al. and Hammache et al. The S factor at zero energy was extracted to be 18.9±1.8 eV-b with the help of theoretical energy-dependence.

    Notes: Abstract Clinical results of fluoroscopic fallopian tube catheterisation and absorbed radiation doses during the procedure were evaluated in 30 infertility patients with unilateral or bilateral tubal obstruction documented on hysterosalpingography. The staged technique consisted of contrast injection through an intraurine catheter with a vacuum cup device, ostial salpingography with the wedged catheter, and selective salpingography with a coaxial microcatheter. Of 45 fallopian tubes examined, 35 (78%) were demonstrated by the procedure, and at least one tube was newly demonstrated in 26 patients (87%). Six of these patients conceived spontaneously in the follow-up perod of 1–11 months. Four pregnancies were intraurine and 2 were ectopic. This technique provided accurate and detailed information in the diagnosis and treatment of tubal obstruction in infertility patients. The absorbed radiation dose to the ovary in the average standardised procedure was estimated to be 0.9 cGy. Further improvement in the X-ray equipment and technique is required to reduce the radiation dose.

    Notes: Abstract. The aim of this study was to assess the upper airway status of sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) patients with low-field MR fluoroscopy. Twenty patients with clinically diagnosed SAS underwent upper airway monitoring using MR fluoroscopy for 5 min while awake and for 30 min while asleep. A 0.064-T permanent-magnet MR imaging system was used for the study. No patients required any sedative drugs because of the very small gradient noise, except in one case. No occlusion was observed while patients were awake. Nine patients showed repeated occlusion at retropalatal (Rp) pharynx, whereas 11 demonstrated both simple Rp occlusion and combined retropalato–retroglossal (Rp + Rg) occlusions (complex occlusion). The mean frequency of occlusion in complex cases was significantly higher than that in simple Rp cases (p 〈 0.05). Low-field MR fluoroscopy was useful in determining the occlusion level while asleep in patients with SAS because of its quiet gantry and long-term monitoring capability. The MR fluoroscopy technique should prove to be a valuable clinical tool for the diagnosis and for determining the appropriate therapy in patients with SAS.
