    Notes: Summary Enzymatic and genetic evidence are presented for a new pathway of ammonia assimilation in nitrogen fixing bacteria: ammonium → glutamine → glutamate. This route to the important glutamate-glutamine family of amino acids differs from the conventional pathway, ammonium → glutamate → glutamine, in several respects. Glutamate synthetase [(glutamine amide-2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase) (oxidoreductase)], which is clearly distinct from glutamate dehydrogenase, catalyzes the reduced pyridine nucleotide dependent amination of α-ketoglutarate with glutamine as amino donor yielding two molecules of glutamate as product. The enzyme is completely inhibited by the glutamine analogue DON, whereas glutamate dehydrogenase is not affected by this inhibitor; the glutamate synthetase reaction is irreversible. Glutamate synthetase is widely distributed in bacteria; the pyridine nucleotide coenzyme specificity of the enzyme varies in many of these species. The activities of key enzymes are modulated by environmental nitrogenous sources; for example, extracts of N2-grown cells of Klebsiella pneumoniae form glutamate almost exclusively by this new route and contain only trace amounts of glutamate dehydrogenase activity whereas NH3-grown cells possess both pathways. Also, the biosynthetically active form of glutamine synthetase with a low K m for ammonium predominates in the N2-grown cell. Several mutant strains of K. pneumoniae have been isolated which fail to fix nitrogen or to grow in an ammonium limited environment. Extracts of these strains prepared from cells grown on higher levels of ammonium have low levels of glutamate synthetase activity and contain the biosynthetically inactive species of glutamine synthetase along with high levels of glutamate dehydrogenase. These mutants missing the new assimilatory pathway have serious defects in their metabolism of many inorganic and organic nitrogen sources; utilization of at least 20 different compounds is effected. We conclude that the new ammonia assimilatory route plays an important role in nitrogenous metabolism and is essential for nitrogen fixation.

    Notes: Abstract Objective: This study was performed to investigate whether it is possible to use saliva instead of blood usually used for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of disopyramide. Methods: Six healthy male volunteers ingested 200 mg of disopyramide base, and the disopyramide concentrations in saliva and plasma (total and unbound) were determined by the HPLC. Results: Disopyramide concentration-time profiles for the saliva were nearly equal to those for the plasma unbound concentrations. A large variation for absorption time of the drug was observed among the subjects. Disopyramide concentrations (Cs) in saliva did not correlated well with plasma total concentrations (Cp), r = 0.799, but did well with unbound concentrations (Cpu), r = 0.969, for the 3–12 h period on the elimination phase. The mean ratio of disopyramide concentrations in the saliva against the plasma unbound concentrations was almost constant (1.02(0.10), CV = 9.7%) for the period. The pharmacokinetic parameters (tmax, t1/2, AUC, AUMC and MRT values) for disopyramide calculated from the saliva data were nearly equal to those from the unbound data. Conclusion: Disopyramide concentrations in saliva correlated well with plasma unbound concentrations on the elimination phase.

    Notes: A new crystal form of PHO4 DNA-binding domain-DNA complex was obtained by the truncation of the N-terminal segment. This diffracts to a higher resolution than any forms reported previously. The present crystal belongs to orthorhombic space group P212121, with unit-cell dimensions a=53.51, b=68.30, c= 108.77 Å. The crystal contains one protein dimer-DNA complex in the asymmetric unit.

    Notes: The solubility of wheat gluten was greatly improved at pH 4 or lower where it showed good emulsifying activity. This might be due to its high surface activity in the acidic pH range and the formation of a stable protein film surrounding the oil droplets. Among the major gluten proteins, gliadins showed higher surface activity than glutenins. The content of glutenins in the adsorbed protein film was higher than that of gliadins, and glutenins are likely to have been adsorbed more tightly than gliadins. These results suggest that gluten proteins exhibit complex behavior, such as adsorption/desorption/displacement/rearrangement during the adsorption process in a gluten-stabilized emulsion.

    Notes: Recent investigations have demonstrated the utility of D2–40 as a marker for lymphatic endothelium and can be used for formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded materials. We studied 13 capillary hemangiomas: kaposiform hemangioendothelioma (KH, 2), acquired tufted angioma (ATA, 5), juvenile hemangioma (JH, 2), granuloma pyogenicum (GP, 4); 6 other hemangiomas: cavernous hemangioma (3), arterio-venous hemangioma (1), angiokeratoma (1), epithelioid hemangioma (1); Kaposi’s sarcoma (1); 12 lymphangiomas: lymphangioma circumscriptum (6), deep type of cutaneous lymphangioma (6). D2–40 monoclonal antibody, endothelial markers (CD31, CD34, Factor VIII related antigen) and juvenile hemangioma-associated marker GLUT-1 were applied. D2–40 was immunopositive for the peripheral area of proliferative capillaries and negative for surrounding dilated vessels in KH, but positive for surrounding dilated vessels and negative for tufted proliferative capillaries in ATA. KH and ATA were all positive for endothelial markers and negative for GLUT-1. Other hemangiomas were negative for D2–40. Eight of 12 cases were positive for lymphangiomas. Based on these results, D2–40 is a useful additional immunostain for the discrimination of KH and ATA. KH and ATA may originate from different stage of both the lymphatic and blood vessel endothelial lineages.

    Notes: Dermatomyositis is an inflammatory condition of the skin and muscles, and an underlying malignancy is noted in 10% or more of cases. Clinical features of dermatomyositis include increasing general fatigue and proximal (thighs and shoulders) muscle weakness accompanied by erythematous lesions of the skin. There have been several distinct types of dermatomyositis described. Here we describe a case of vesiculo-bullous dermatomyositis, which is a rare variant of dermatomyositis. A 49-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with a painful erythematous vesicular eruption of the face, trunk and extremities. In addition, edema of the face and fever were observed. Clinically, dermatomyositis was considered because of typical skin rashes (Gottron’s papules, periorbital heliotrope rash and poikiloderma) and serum creatine phosphokinase level of 1,031 IU/L. A skin biopsy was performed. Microscopically, subepidermal vesiculation with marked edema was present. Lymphoplasmacytic infiltration was also observed in the upper dermis. So far only a few case reports of vesiculo-bullous dermatomyositis have been reported in the literature. It should be kept in mind that dermatomyositis may present subepidermal vesiculation in order to avoid a misdiagnosis and unnecessary delayed treatment. Furthermore, an internal malignancy should be considered in such a variant of dermatomyositis.

    Notes: Cellular blue nevus is composed of dendritic melanocytes, together with islands of epithelioid and plump spindle cells. We examined 58 cases of blue nevi. Fourteen cases were common blue nevi. The remaining 44 blue nevi were divided into three types according to its silhouettes. These were nodular (type 1, 18 cases), nodular with notch (type 2, 16 cases), and rounded pushing patterns (type 3, 10 cases). Well circumscribed top heavy nodule was observed in type 1, and it was limited to the dermis. Type 2 showed budding appearance into the subcutaneous tissue. Type 3 revealed bottom heavy with downward pushing margin. Both type 2 and type 3 were demonstrated biphasic patterns of epithelioid and spindle cells. Perineural distribution of melanocytes was also observed in type 2 and 3. The size of these types was 3.3 mm in type 1, 4.7 mm in type 2, and 7.4 mm in type 3. The thickness of these types was 1.6 mm in type 1, 2.5 mm in type 2, and 5.2 mm in type 3. Our results suggest that cellular blue nevi may be divided into three stages. Type 1 is its early stage, and may be misinterpreted as common blue nevi.
