    Notes: Sputtered CoNiPt films prepared for high-density magnetic recording media have been studied by Brillouin scattering. The spin-wave spectra in the film are remarkably broadened with width 13 GHz (full width at half maximum), which is much larger than the width of 3 GHz in a film prepared by vapor deposition. Observation by a transmission electron microscope has clarified that the sputtered film consists of Co crystallites with a diameter of 50–100 A(ring), which are separated from each other. The remarkable damping of the spin waves in the sputtered CoNiPt film is caused by the film structure. The film is, however, elastically homogeneous, which is known from the undamped surface acoustic wave spectra. The result shows the segregation of the nonmagnetic Pt-related alloys takes place between the Co crystallites. The exchange stiffness constant was determined as 2.4×10−9 Oe cm2 in the sputtered film, which is 1/1.7 that in the vapor-deposited films.

    Notes: : Antihypertensive activities derived from porcine skeletal muscle proteins were investigated. Thermolysin hydrolysates of porcine muscle water-insoluble proteins demonstrated antihypertensive activities in spontaneously hypertensive rats when administrated in single oral doses. Hydrolysates of porcine myosin and peptides (Met-Asn-Pro-Pro-Lys, Ile-Thr-Thr-Asn-Pro, Met-Asn-Pro, Pro-Pro-Lys) with parts of the sequence of myosin showed antihypertensive activities. This is the first report of antihypertensive activities of peptides derived from muscle proteins of domestic animals. The hydrolysates of porcine muscle protein and their corresponding bioactive peptides might be utilized for physiologically functional foods.

    Pathological Role of Aquaporin-2 in Impaired Water Excretion and Hyponatremia (2004)

    Notes: In the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH), inappropriately elevated secretion of vasopressin can result in a reduction of antidiuretic efficacy: a phenomenon known as ‘vasopressin escape’. We compared experimental SIADH with 1-deamino-8-d-arginine vasopressin (dDAVP)-excess rats, where both groups received continuous subcutaneous administration of dDAVP by osmotic minipump but the SIADH rats also received a liquid diet that induced hyponatraemia. The SIADH rats, but not the dDAVP excess rats, showed a marked attenuation of urinary concentrating ability. Vasopressin V2 receptor binding capacity and mRNA expression were similar between the two groups, but the SIADH rats showed a diminished up-regulation of aquaporin-2 (AQP-2) mRNA and protein expression. These findings indicate the presence of tonicity-response regions in the AQP-2 promoter gene, and that either hypervolemia or hypotonicity may attenuate the postreceptor signalling of vasopressin in renal collecting duct cells in SIADH rats.

    Notes: Somatic hybrids were produced between Moricandia arvensis (MaMa, 2n= 28) and Brassica oleracea (CC, 2n= 18) through cell fusion and then characterized by analysing their morphology, cytology, DNA constitution, leaf anatomy and seed fertility. Cell fusion was carried out between greenish protoplasts isolated from the mesophyll of M. arvensis and colourless ones from hypocotyls of B. oleracea. Three plants were generated from one shoot via cuttings and acclimatized in vivo. They closely resembled each other in morphology, exhibiting traits intermediate between the parental species. They were confirmed to be amphidiploids by mitotic and meiotic analyses, being 2n= 46 (MaMaCC), with pollen fertility of about 50%, which was enough to develop the subsequent progenies. Anatomical analysis of the for leaf tissue showed that the bundle sheath cells of the somatic hybrids contained some centripetally arranged organelles, like those of M. arvensis. The hybridity was also confirmed by random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis. Both chloroplast DNA and mitochondrial DNA of the somatic hybrids were estimated to be derived from M. arvensis. In leaf anatomy, the somatic hybrid showed the C3-C4 intermediate trait as in M. arvensis. Many progenies resulted from backcrossing with parental species. The somatic hybrids are expected to be used as bridging plant material to introduce the C3-C4 intermediate trait into Brassica crop species.

    Notes: Three apple (Malus×domestica) cultivars and 11 Malus accessions have been investigated by the probe hybridization method on their mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). The gene probes used were: coxI, coxII, atpA, atp6, and atp9. Our results revealed enough variation to characterize ten mtDNA haplotypes among the Malus genotypes examined. The taxonomic and phylogenetic implications of mtDNA polymorphism are also discussed.

    Notes: Background Mast cells (MCs) arise from haematopoietic stem cells. We have recently reported that CD34+ progenitors derived from human bone marrow (BM) develop into tryptase+, chymase+ MCs when cultured in the presence of recombinant human stem cell factor (rhSCF) and recombinant human IL-6 (rhIL-6). In an experiment for the expression of chymase during differentiation, chymase+ cells were detected in human BM, but tryptase+ cells were not found.Objective The purpose of this study was to show the appearance of chymase+ cells in CD34+ cells with an origin different from MC differentiation.Methods CD34+ cells from human BM were sorted with anti-CD117 monoclonal antibody (mAb), and cytospins of CD34+, CD34+CD117+, or CD34+CD117− were prepared. These cells were cultured with rhSCF+rhIL-6 for 12 weeks. Some of the cells were subjected to either histological stain with Wright–Giemsa or immunocytochemistry with anti-chymase mAb. Real-time RT-PCR was also performed to compare the transcriptional level of chymase from each cell preparation.Results Chymase was expressed in CD34+ cells as well as human MCs by immunocytochemistry. Substantial CD34+CD117− cells, but not CD34+CD117+ cells, were stained immunocytochemically with anti-chymase mAb. For 1 week culture with rhSCF+rhIL-6, no cells expressed chymase in any preparation. Real-time RT-PCR revealed positivity for chymase mRNA in CD34+ cells, but it reduced at 1 week of culture, and increased as cells developed into MCs. Chymase mRNA in CD34+CD117+ cells was negligible compared with that in CD34+CD117−. Tryptase mRNA was below the detectable level in CD34+ cells, and increased along with MC differentiation. After 12 weeks of culture, CD34+CD117+ developed predominantly into MCs, whereas CD34+CD117− developed into monocytes/macrophages.Conclusion Our findings suggested that chymase is present not only in MCs but also in CD34+CD117− BM progenitors, but that its origin is different from the MC lineage.

    Notes: Background CD34+ progenitor cells develop into tryptase+, CD117+ mast cells when cultured in the presence of recombinant human stem cell factor (rhSCF). However, spontaneous IgE receptor (FcɛRI) expression during human mast cell development is not well examined.Objective Here, the expression and function of FcɛRI in and on human bone marrow-derived mast cells (HBMMCs) during development were investigated.Methods and Results At 4 weeks of culture, predominant cells expressed high-affinity IgE receptor α chain (FcɛRIα) on the cell surface determined by flow cytometry, but CD117 was less expressed. Immunocytochemistry with antitryptase mAb and anti-FcɛRIα mAb revealed intracellular and surface expression of FcɛRIα at 2 weeks of culture, but tryptase was less expressed. FcɛRIα mRNA transcript preceded that of tryptase mRNA at 2 weeks of culture determined by real-time RT-PCR, and FcɛRIα, FcɛRIβ, FcɛRIγ, and tryptase mRNA increased along with differentiation. FcɛRIα cross-link on HBMMC and 4-week-old mast cells/mast cell precursors induced the release of IL-5 and granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor, which was enhanced by rhSCF.Conclusion These data indicated that HBMMC constitutively and spontaneously expressed functional FcɛRI subunits at the early stage of differentiation, probably because of the differences in the ability and functional property of progenitors.

    Notes: Background In vitro-derived human mast cells exhibit different properties, depending in part on the source of progenitor cells. Most investigations have used fetal liver, cord blood or peripheral blood. Few have used adult bone marrow.Objective Human mast cells derived in vitro from the CD34+ progenitors in bone marrow and cord blood that had been cultured with recombinant human stem cell factor (rhSCF) and recombinant human interleukin-6 (rhIL-6) were compared.Methods and results After 12 weeks of culture, nearly all of the cells were mast cells, and nearly all of these had cytoplasmic granules containing both tryptase and chymase (MCTC type), stained metachromatically with acidic toluidine blue, and expressed CD117 on the cell surface. Both tryptase protein and mRNA were detected by two weeks of culture. Chymase mRNA and protein were detected at 4 weeks but not at 2 weeks of culture. By 12 weeks, chymase content per cell, measured by ELISA, was significantly higher (P 〈 0.05) in human bone marrow-derived mast cells (HBMMC) (5.6 ± 0.9 pg) than in cord blood-derived mast cells (CBMC) (2.4 ± 0.9 pg), whereas histamine and tryptase levels were not significantly different. Of the cluster designations tested, CD29, CD49d, CD51 and CD61 were strongly expressed on HBMMC. CD54 and FcεRIα also were expressed constitutively. Approximately half of CD34-sorted cells at day 0 were CD13+ and this diminished as mast cell maturation occurred. Electron microscopy revealed that 12-week-old HBMMC had many secretory granules that contained spherical electron dense cores surrounded by electron lucent space, consistent with previous reports of immature MCTC cells developing in vivo.Conclusions CD34+ progenitors of human bone marrow are a rich source of mast cell progenitors capable of expressing granule and surface markers of mature mast cells in the presence of rhSCF and rhIL-6.
