    Notes: We analyse the time decay of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the linear hyperbolic system of elasticity for anisotropic media. As an example, we will consider media with hexagonal symmetry. First we derive decay estimates for special initial data using the method of stationary phase in several variables and degenerate phase function based on the Malgrange preparation theorem. Asymptotic expansions are given to prove the sharpness of the weaker time decay found for zinc and beryl than in the isotropic case. A method using Besov spaces leads to Lp-Lq-estimates.

    Notes: The mixed-Neumann problem for the non-linear wave equation □u-a(u)(∣∂tu)∣2-∣∇u∣2 = fε(z) is studied. The function fε(z) = ∑k∊Kfk(z,ε-1φk(z),ε), ε∊[0,1], K is finite, fk(z,θk,ε) are 2π-periodic with respect to θk. The existence of solution uε on a domain z = (t,x,y)∊[0,T]×∝+×∝d, d = 1 or 2, is proved when ε is sufficiently small; T does not depend on ε. By the non-linear geometric optics method the asymptotic (with respect to ε→0) solution ũ ε is constructed. The estimation for the rest ε2rε = uε-ũε is derived and the limit rε, ε→0, is studied.

    Notes: This paper analyses the Child-Langmuir asymptotics of the Vlasov-Poisson problem in cylindrical or spherical symmetry. The problem was stated in the first part of this paper [2]. We recall that the Child-Langmuir asymptotics concerns the boundary value problem for the Vlasov-Poisson system in the situation where the thermal energy of the injected particles at the boundary is small compared with the external applied bias.In the first part, we derived the set of estimates which allow us to pass to the limit in the asymptotic problem. In the present part, we analyse the limit (or ‘reduced’) problem, which leads us to a characterization of the limit or ‘Child-Langmuir’ current which flows through the system.

    Notes: The Lyapunov stability is analysed for a class of integro-differential equations with unbounded operator coefficients. These equations arise in the study of non-conservative stability problems for viscoelastic thin-walled elements of structures. Some sufficient stability conditions are derived by using the direct Lyapunov method. These conditions are formulated for arbitrary kernels of the Volterra integral operator in terms of norms of the operator coefficients. Employing these conditions the supersonic flutter of a viscoelastic panel is studied and explicit expressions for the critical gas velocity are derived. Dependence of the critical flow velocity on the material characteristics and compressive load is analysed numerically.

    Notes: We use the implicit function theorem to prove an existence of a heteroclinic orbit to a system of two non-linear second-order ODEs. The perturbation is carried out around infinite value of a ‘coupling parameter’. The form of the system which is considered in this paper is related to the system defining travelling wave solutions in a two temperature model of the laser sustained plasma.

    Notes: We consider a non-linear plate equation of Bernoulli-Euler type with a locally distributed damping term. Our main result asserts that if the damping is effective in a neighbourhood of the boundary then the energy decays exponentially. The method we use is a combination of multiplier techniques and of a compactness-uniqueness argument.

    Notes: The existence of global measure-valued solutions to the Euler equations describing the motion of an ideal compressible and heat conducting fluid is proved. The motion is considered in a bounded domain Ω⊂∝3 with impermeable boundary. The solution is a limit of an approximate solution obtained by adding the sixth-order elliptic operator in the equation of momentum.

    Notes: A systematic way of ascribing values to integrals which diverge at infinity is described. For integrals with algebraic or logarithmic behaviour it is akin to Hadamard's finite part for integrands which have singularities at finite points. The power of the method is illustrated by examples of particular integrals and the convolution of distributions which are beyond the range of standard theory. Both one-dimensional and multi-dimensional integrals are included. The theory also enables the definition of products of distributions which are considered normally to be too singular for multiplication.

It is shown that for several types of domain there exists a critical exponent such that all of positive solutions blow up in a finite time in subcritical case (including the critical case) while there exist positive global solutions in the supercritical case if initial data are small.

More generally, for a linear differential operator A(y,∂), the equation A(y,∂)u = (-1)∣γ∣∂γf(y,∂γu), y = (t,x)∊∝k×G is studied, where homogeneous boundary conditions on ∂G and periodicity conditions on t are imposed. The solutions are obtained by variational methods in anisotropic Sobolev spaces.

    Notes: The quasi-hydrodynamic carrier transport equations for semiconductors extended to Fermi-Dirac statistics are considered. It is shown that in the high injection case, these equations reduce to a drift-diffusion model with non-linear diffusion terms. The limiting procedure is proved rigorously and error estimates are shown. We compute numerically static voltage-current characteristics of a forward biased pn-junction diode and compare the curves with the corresponding characteristics obtained from the standard drift-diffusion model based on Boltzmann statistics. It turns out that there exists a so-called threshold voltage at which the behaviour of the characteristic changes. Under high injection conditions, the dependence of the current on the bias appears to be approximately polynomial. The characteristics are studied analytically for a unipolar device.

By means of potential theory, existence, uniqueness and regularity results for weak solutions are proved in weighted Sobolev spaces with weights proportional to ∣x∣δ as ∣x∣→∞. For f = 0,g = 0, explicit decay formulas are obtained for the solutions u and p. Finally, the results are compared with the theory of r-generalized solutions, i.e. ∇u∊Lr.

By using Green's function Gκ(x,y) of the Neumann problem for the reduced wave equation ΔU+κ2U = 0 in the unperturbed domain Ω0, both problems can be reduced to integral equations over the boundaries of the obstacles. The main properties of Gκ(x,y), which are required for this approach, are derived in the first part of this paper.

    Notes: The equations of the Hopfield network, without the constraint of symmetry, can have complex behaviours. Cottet borrowed techniques from particle methods to show that a class of such networks with symmetric, translation-invariant connection matrices may be approximated by a reaction-diffusion equation. This idea is extended to a wider class of network connections yielding a slightly more complex reaction-diffusion equation. It is also shown that the approximation holds rigorously only in certain spatial regions (even for Cottet's special case) but the small regions where it fails, namely within transition layers between regions of high and low activity, are not likely to be critical.

    Notes: We consider the self-adjoint operator governing the propagation of elastic waves in perturbed stratified media ∝3 with free boundary-interface conditions. In this paper we establish the limiting absorption principle for this self-adjoint operator in appropriate Hilbert space. The proof of the limiting absorption principle is based on the division theorem which is proved by means of eigenfunction expansions for the self-adjoint operator governing the propagation of elastic waves in unperturbed stratified media ∝3.

    Notes: We study initial and boundary value problems for the wave equation ∂2tu-Δu = fe-iωt with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary data in smooth domains Ω, which coincide with Ω0 = ∝2×(0,1) outside a sufficiently large sphere. The concept of a standing wave, introduced in [7], seems to be of special relevance. A standing wave of frequency ω is defined as a non-trivial solution U of the equation ΔU+ω2U = 0 in Ω, which satisfies on ∂Ω the prescribed boundary condition U = 0 or ∂U/∂n = 0, respectively, and a suitable condition at infinity. For instance, U(x) = sinπkx3 is a standing wave of frequency πk in the unperturbed domain Ω0 with Dirichlet boundary data. As shown in a series of joint papers with K. Morgenröther, u(x,t) is bounded as t→∞ if Ω does not admit standing waves of frequency ω. The main purpose of the present paper is the proof of the converse statement: If standing waves of frequency ω exist in Ω, then u(x,t) is unbounded as t→∞ for suitably chosen f∊C∞0(Ω). Thus the appearance of resonances is closely related to the presence of standing waves. The leading term of the asymptotic expansion of u(x,t) as t→∞ will be specified. In particular, it turns out that the resonance rate is either t or ln t. The rate t appears if and only if ω2 is an eigenvalue of the spatial operator, while the rate ln t can only occur if ω = πk. In the case of Neumann boundary data, U = 1 is a standing wave of frequency 0 for every local perturbation Ω of Ω0. The corresponding resonance has already been studied in [21].

    Notes: Van Roosbroeck's bipolar drift diffusion equations cover the qualitative behaviour of many semiconductor devices. The complexity of the model equations however prevents efficient implementations needed in circuit simulations. Under close-to-thermal-equilibrium biasing conditions (zero space charge assumption, low injection limit) the van Roosbroeck system can be replaced by a system of coupled non-linear Volterra integral equations of the second kind. Involving only the macroscopic quantities current, applied voltage and serial resistance this Volterra system can be handled with comparably little effort. Volterra integral equations models are formulated for a large class of semiconductor devices with abrupt pn-junctions. The model equations are made explicit for diodes, transistors and thyristors. A survey on various results concerning Volterra models describing the switching behaviour of pn-diodes is given. The integral equation model allows to recover all relevant properties of the voltage-current characteristics.

    Notes: We consider the Dirichlet boundary value problem for the Helmholtz equation in a non-locally perturbed half-plane, this problem arising in electromagnetic scattering by one-dimensional rough, perfectly conducting surfaces. We propose a new boundary integral equation formulation for this problem, utilizing the Green's function for an impedance half-plane in place of the standard fundamental solution. We show, at least for surfaces not differing too much from the flat boundary, that the integral equation is uniquely solvable in the space of bounded and continuous functions, and hence that, for a variety of incident fields including an incident plane wave, the boundary value problem for the scattered field has a unique solution satisfying the limiting absorption principle. Finally, a result of continuous dependence of the solution on the boundary shape is obtained.

We then show smoothness of u on the set {x∊Ω: Eu≠0}.

    Notes: In this paper, we study an initial-boundary value problem for a system of phase-field equations arising from the Penrose-Fife approach to model the kinetics of phase transitions. In contrast to other recent works in the field, the correct form of the boundary condition for the temperature field is assumed which leads to additional difficulties in the mathematical treatment. It is demonstrated that global existence of strong solutions can be shown under essentially the same assumptions on the data as in the previous papers where a simplified boundary condition for the heat exchange with the surrounding medium has been used.

    Notes: A numerical technique for determining the solution of the brachistochrone problem is presented. The brachistochrone problem is first formulated as a non-linear optimal control problem. Using Chebyshev nodes, we construct the Mth degree polynomial interpolation to approximate the state and the control variables. Application of this method results in the transformation of differential and integral expressions into some non-linear algebraic equations to which Newton-type methods can be applied. Simulation studies demonstrate computational advantages relative to existing methods in the literature.

    Notes: In this paper, following the ideas of Lax, we prove a blow-up result for a class of solutions of the equation φtt-φxx-φ2xφxx-φ3 = 0, corresponding, in certain cases, to the development of a singularity in the second derivatives of φ. These solutions solve locally (in time) the Cauchy problem for smooth initial data belonging to the uniformly local Sobolev spaces considered by Kato and by Majda.

    Notes: We study the Stokes system with non-homogeneous Fourier boundary conditions depending on a parameter, in a domain with periodic inclusions of the size of the period. Following the values of this parameter, we obtain at the limit a Darcy's law, a Brinkmann type equation or a Stokes type equation.We also present a physical model to which the results apply. This model describes the flow of an incompressible viscous fluid through a porous medium under the action of an exterior electric field.

    Notes: The three-dimensional mathematical problems of the interaction of an elastic and some scalar fields are investigated. It is assumed that the elastic structure under consideration is a bounded homogeneous anisotropic body occupying domain Ω¯+⊂∝3 and the physical scalar field is defined in the exterior domain Ω- = ∝3\Ω+. These two fields satisfy the governing equations in the corresponding domains together with the transmission conditions on the interface ∂Ω+. The problems are studied by the potential method and the existence and uniqueness theorems are proved.

    Notes: This paper is concerned with the effective numerical treatment of elliptic boundary value problems when the solutions contain singularities. The paper deals first with the theory of problems of this type in the context of weighted Sobolev spaces and covers problems in domains with conical vertices and non-intersecting edges, as well as polyhedral domains with Lipschitz boundaries. Finite element schemes on graded meshes for second-order problems in polygonal/polyhedral domains are then proposed for problems with the above singularities. These schemes exhibit optimal convergence rates with decreasing mesh size. Finally, we describe numerical experiments which demonstrate the efficiency of our technique in terms of ‘actual’ errors for specific (finite) mesh sizes in addition to the asymptotic rates of convergence.

    Notes: It is shown that the non-linear coagulation-fragmentation equation with constant kernels has a unique equilibrium solution. This equilibrium solution is given explicitly in terms of the initial data and the kernels. Weak L1 convergence of time-dependent solutions to the unique equilibrium is demonstrated via an invariance principle employing a suitable lower semicontinuous Lyapunov functional.

For the cases of one, two, and three space dimensions local in time existence and uniqueness of a solution is proved. We show that for discontinuous initial perturbations this solution is infinitely differentiable with respect to time t and space co-ordinates for t〉0 on a bounded time interval.

    Notes: The albedo and scattering operators are central objects in the time-dependent transport theory. Their mutual relationship has recently been established by Arianfar and Emamirad for the case of transparent boundaries. In this paper, we extend the result to general boundary conditions. To allow for this extension, the scattering theory for a transport-like equation is generalized to include partially reflecting boundary conditions. The existence of the wave and scattering operators is directly inferred from the properties of the evolution operators that are determined, in turn, by the physics of collisions within and at the boundaries of the scattering domain.

    Notes: In this paper we generalize the abstract results of Mock and Marcowich [13, 12] for convergence of discrete Van Roosbroeck systems [12, 13, 17], to the case when the solutions are typically in W1,4-ε and not in H2. These conditions are verified on finite element discretizations. Error estimates are derived when the solution is unique. Due to the singularity at the flat angles, these estimates in the H1 norm are only O(h1/2). The techniques that are presented are broad and may be applied to other type of discretizations.

    Notes: In this paper we employ concepts from Banach space geometry in order to examine the problem of approximating the optimal distributed control of vibrating media whose motion is governed by a wave equation with a 2n-order self-adjoint and positive-definite linear differential operator. We show that this geometrical approach, arrived at via duality theory, provides the exact framework in which the approximation problem must be placed in order to get the correct convergence results, for it is here that the necessary and sufficient conditions for the approximate norm or time minimal control can be fully developed. Using the theory of Asplund, we are also able to improve the traditional weak* convergence results for the more difficult case of L∞ controls. Finally, we consider certain numerical examples which help illustrate our theoretical results.

    Notes: The Child-Langmuir asymptotics of the Vlasov-Poisson system provides a model for vacuum diodes which operate under large biases. In these conditions the energy of the injected particles at the cathode is very small compared with the applied external bias. From the mathematical view point, this leads to an interesting and non-standard asymptotic problem for the Vlasov-Poisson equation, which has already been investigated in the one-dimensional Cartesian case, in [7]. The purpose of this paper is to extend the analysis to the cylindrically or spherically symmetric case. Surprisingly, the behaviour of the solutions of the model is somehow different than in the Cartesian case. This feature had not been noticed by the physicists before. Furthermore, the mathematical analysis is much more involved than in [7] because of the geometrical effects, and the techniques that are used are quite different. They mainly rely on the use of supersolutions in the spirit of [18, 19]. This work is divided in two parts. In this first part, we state the problem and establish the basic estimates which are needed for the asymptotic analysis.

    Notes: In the first section of this paper, some non-local boundary value problem for the polyharmonic equation in the plane is considered. This problem consists in determining solution of the polyharmonic equation satisfying some special non-local-type boundary condition on two curves. The existence theorem is proved. In the second section, an example for the case of the biharmonic equation is considered. In the third section, some non-local, non-linear problem of Riquier type is examined. The Riquier-type problem consists in determining the polyharmonic function in the plane whose value together with its successive Laplacians are prescribed on the boundary. The existence theorem is proved and an example for the case of the biharmonic equation is considered.

    Notes: The paper deals with the Fourier-finite-element method (FFEM), which combines the approximate Fourier method with the finite-element method, and its application to Poisson-like equations -p̂Δ3û = f̂ in three-dimensional axisymmetric domains Ω^. Here, p^ is a piecewise constant coefficient having a jump at some axisymmetric interface. Special emphasis is given to estimates of the Fourier-finite-element error in the Sobolev space H1(Ω^), if the interface is smooth or if it meets the boundary of Ω^ at some edge. In general, the solution û contains a singularity at the interface, which is described by a tensor product representation and treated numerically by appropriate mesh grading in the meridian plane of Ω^. The rate of convergence of the combined approximation in H1(Ω^) is proved to be O(h+N-1) (h, N: the parameters of the finite-element- and Fourier-approximation, with h→0, N→∞). The theoretical results are confirmed by numerical experiments.

    Notes: In this paper we provide a theory of the asymptotic expansion for an abstract kinetic equation. We show that the modified Chapman-Enskog procedure, introduced in [19], gives the error of order of ε2, uniformly in time, on the second level of approximation and in particular that the zeroth moment of the solution (the spatial density of particles) can be approximated by the solution of the diffusion-type equation with the same accuracy. The theory is applied to several types of kinetic equations with the Fokker-Planck collision operator.

    Notes: We consider the system of elastic waves in three dimensions under the presence of an impurity of the medium which we represent by a real-valued function q(x) (or q(x,t)). The medium is assumed to be isotropic and occupies the whole space Ω = ∝3. We study the location of the scattering frequencies associated with such phenomenon. We conclude that there is a large region on the complex plane which is free of scattering frequencies. In the remaining region they are discrete provided that q satisfies suitable assumptions concerning its behaviour at infinity.

    Notes: We consider parabolic systems defined on cylindrical domains close to the threshold of instability, in which the Fourier modes with positive growth rates are concentrated at a non-zero critical wave number. In particular, we consider systems for which a so-called Ginzburg-Landau equation can be derived. Due to the presence of continuous spectrum, classical bifurcation theory is not available to describe bifurcating solutions. Thus, we consider a modified system with artificial spectral gap, which possesses an infinite-dimensional centre manifold. The amplitude equation on this manifold is called a generalized Ginzburg-Landau equation. From previous work [18] it is known that the Fourier modes are exponentially concentrated at integer multiples of the critical wave number. Hence, the error made by this modification is exponentially small in powers of the bifurcation parameter. The approximations obtained via the generalized Ginzburg-Landau equation are valid on a much longer time scale than those obtained by using the classical Ginzburg-Landau equation as an amplitude equation.

    Notes: A review of exact solutions of discrete velocity models is given. Different methods of constructing the solutions are discussed. New methods are proposed for the stationary Broadwell model, and new class of solutions is obtained. Two-dimensional flows in channel are studied on the basis of exact solutions and analogy with the Carleman model. Explicit example of non-unique solution to a boundary value problem is given. Exact hydrodynamic equations are derived for the stationary Broadwell model. A role of the Navier-Stokes approximation is discussed in detail by comparison with these exact equations.

    Notes: When one end of an extensible beam whose ends are a fixed distance apart, is hinged while to other end a load is attached, the mathematical model describing the vibrations of the beam contains a non-linearity both in the partial differential equation as well as in the dynamical boundary condition. We introduce weak damping and consider the resulting boundary-value problem within the framework of the theories of B-evolutions and fractional powers of a closed pair of operators. This approach enables us to construct a unique weak solution which exhibits exponential decay by employing Faedo-Galerkin approximations.

    Notes: We give new finite time blow-up results for the non-linear parabolic equations ut-Δu = up and ut-Δu+μ∣∇u∣q = up. We first establish an a priori bound in Lp+1 for the positive non-decreasing global solutions. As a consequence, we prove in particular that for the second equation on ∝N, with q = 2p/(p+1) and small μ〉0, blow-up can occur for any N≥1, p〉1, (N-2)p〈N+2 and without energy restriction on the initial data. Incidentally, we present a simple model in population dynamics involving this equation.

    Notes: The equations of motion for two-dimensional deformations of an incompressible elastoplastic material involve five equations, two equations expressing conservation of momentum, and three constitutive laws, which we take in the rate form, i.e. relating the stress rate to the strain rate. In hypoplasticity, the constitutive laws are homogeneous of degree one in the stress and strain rates. This property has the consequence that although the equations are not in conservation form, there is nonetheless a natural way to characterize planar shock waves. The Riemann problem is the initial value problem for plane waves, in which the initial data for stress and velocity consist of two constant vectors separated by a single discontinuity. The main result is that, under appropriate assumptions, the Riemann problem has a scale invariant piecewise constant solution. The issue of uniqueness is left unresolved. Indeed, we give an example satisfying the conditions for existence, for which there are many solutions. Using asymptotics, we show how solutions of the Riemann problem are approximated by smooth solutions of a system regularized by the addition of viscous terms that preserve the property of scale invariance.

    Notes: This paper concerns the well-posedness of the hydrodynamic model for semiconductor devices, a quasi-linear elliptic-parbolic-hyperbolic system. Boundary conditions for elliptic and parabolic equations are Dirichlet conditions while boundary conditions for the hyperbolic equations are assumed to be well-posed in L2 sense. Maximally strictly dissipative boundary conditions for the hyperbolic equations satisfy the assumption of well-posedness in L2 sense. The well-posedness of the model under the boundary conditions is demonstrated.

    Notes: Efforts at the National Cancer Institute to generate continuous in vitro cultures from patients with mycosis fungoides and the Sezary syndrome, neoplasms with a mature T-helper phenotype, led to the establishment of two cell lines, HUT78 and HUT102. Further characterization of these cell lines led to the identification of the first human retrovirus, HTLV-1, in the HUT102 cells, and the clinical description of the syndrome of HTLV-1 associated acute T-cell leukemia/lymphoma; the serum antibody test to screen for this virus was developed from the serum of the patient from whom the cell line was derived. The HUT78 cell line was pivotal in the identification and characterization of the HIV retrovirus in that a subclone, H9, proved to be permissive for replication of HIV in vitro. Propagation of HIV in vitro in H9 cells allowed for the development of immunological reagents to screen blood supplies for the presence of the virus. Further biologic and molecular studies of these lines have led not only to a better understanding of the underlying diseases but also to the development of rational therapeutic approaches. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Cell lines established from the human colorectal and gastric cancers may provide very useful tools to the study of the disease and to develop and test new therapeutic approaches, and a large bank of well-characterized cell lines should reflect the diversity of tumor phenotypes and provide adequate models for the study of tumor heterogeneity. Colorectal lines are relatively easy to establish, while gastric cancer cell lines remain extremely difficult to propagate in long-term culture, and the number of cell lines is very limited. In this paper, we describe the up-to-date results of the characteristics of our nine colorectal cancer cell lines and four gastric cancer cell lines. Based on culture, xenograft, and ultrastructural morphologies, these cell lines could be subtyped into well-differentiated, moderately differentiated, poorly differentiated, and mucinous carcinomas. Basic properties concerning expression and secretion of antigens, neuroendocrine features, receptor binding of various gastrointestinal hormones and neurotransmitters, cytogenetic studies, gene amplification and expression, and chemosensitivity profiles are described. In particular, a greater number of receptors for hormones and neurotransmitters are expressed on human colorectal cancer cell lines compared to gastric cancer cell lines, raising the possibility that castrointestinal hormones may have a greater autocrine effect on colon cancer cell growth. Despite major differences in the biology of colorectal cancer and gastric cancer as indicated by clinical studies, the multiple properties that we examined reveals marked similarities between the colorectal and gastric cancer cell lines. However, in vitro chemosensitivity patterns to cytotoxic drugs are very different in colorectal and gastric cell lines. Some of these observations may be due to the relatively low expression of the multidrug-resistance-associated (MDR1) gene in gastric cancer cell lines. In addition, colorectal cancer cell lines express receptors for peptide hormones more frequently. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: 10-ethyl-10-deazaaminopterin (10-EDAM) is a rationally designed derivative of the antifolate, methotrexate (MTX). In a number of tumor models these design features have resulted in an improved spectrum of antiproliferative activity as compared with the parent compound. Using an MTT growth assay, we compared in vitro antiproliferative activity of 10-EDAM with MTX in eight lung cancer cell lines. Growth was inhibited in all lines tested by clinically achievable concentrations of 10-EDAM (0.1-1,000 nM). 10-EDAM was more cytotoxic than MTX at the same concentrations in all eight lung cancer cell lines. In an effort to enhance the antiproliferative effect, we evaluated the addition of dipyridamole (DPM), an inhibitor of nucleoside transport, to 10-EDAM (0.1-10 μm). DPM decreased the concentration of 10-EDAM required to cause 50% growth inhibition (IC50) in all eight cell lines tested. This supperssion was statistically significant by 2-sided sign test (P = .0078). By contrast, the IC50 of MTX was decreased in only two of the eight cell lines when DPM was added (0.1-10 μM). In defined thymidine depleted media, cell kill by the combination of 10-EDAM and DPM was no greater than 10-EDAM alone, consistent with the possibility that DPM exerts some of its effect by inhibition of extrinsic nucleoside salvage. In consideration of the published activity of 10-EDAM in lung cancer and the modest clinical toxicity of DPM based biochemical modulation, we conclude the current in vitro data provide justification for clinical evaluation of this combination in patients with lung cancer. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.This article is a US Government work and, as such, is in the public domain in the United States of America.

    Notes: We identified 126 tumor cell lines established from patients with small cell cancer at the NCI-Navy Medical Oncology Branch from 1977 through 1992. Extensive clinical information was available on 96 patients from whom these cell lines were established. These patients comprised approximately one fourth of the 407 patients treated on prospective therapeutic clinical trials during the same time period. The proportion of tumor cell lines established from previously untreated patients with both limited and extensive stage small cell lung cancer increased during the 16 years of the study (P = 0.008). MYC family DNA amplification was present in 16 of 44 (36%) tumor cell lines established from previously treated patients compared to 7 of 52 (11%) of tumor cell lines established from untreated patients (P = 0.009). MYC DNA amplification in tumor cell lines established from patients previously treated with chemotherapy continued to be associated with shortened survival (P = 0.001). The initiation of a policy to obtain tumor tissue for the purpose of selecting chemotherapeutic agents given to individual patients was associated with an increase in the proportion of patients from whom tumor cell lines could be established for both extensive and limited stage patients (P = 0.001 and 0.05, respectively). © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Mammalian bombesin-like peptides gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) and neuromedin B (NMB) are regulatory neuropeptides involved in numerous physiologic processes, and have been implicated as autocrine and/or paracrine growth factors in human lung carcinoma. Three structurally and pharmacologically distinct bombesin receptor subtypes have been isolated and characterized: the gastrin releasing peptide receptor (GRP-R), the neuromedin B receptor (NMB-R), and bombesin receptor subtype-3 (BRS-3). The three receptors are structurally related, sharing about 50% amino acid identity. They are members of the G-protein coupled receptor superfamily with a seven predicted transmembrane segment topology charcteristic of receptors in this family. The signal transduction pathway for GRP-R and NMB-R involves coupling to a pertussis-toxin insensitive G-protien, activation of phospholipase C (PLC), generation of inositol trisphosphate (IP3), release of intracellular calcium, and activation of protein kinase C. While all three bombesin receptors are activated by bombesin agonists, GRP-R, and NMB-R, and BRS-3 have very different affinities for the mammalian bombesin-like peptides GRP and NMB, as well as bombesin receptor antagonists. The three bombesin receptor subtypes are expressed in an overlapping subset of human lung carcinoma cell lines. Any therapeutic strategy based on modulation of bombesin growth responses in human lung carcinoma cell lines. Any therapeutic strategy based on moducation of bombesin growth reponses in human lung carcinoma would be well served to take into account the pharmacologic heterogeneity of the relevant receptors. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.This article is a US Government work and, as such, is in the public domain in the United States of America.

    Notes: Lung tumor cells and cell lines, principally the histologically classified small cell lung cancer, are characterized by the expression of neuroendocrine (NE) features including AADC (aromatic amico acid decarboxylase, previously called DOPA decarboxylase) and the production of many peptide harmones. The general mechanisms by which most aspects of the NE phenotype affect the clinical behavior of lung tumor cells are unknown, but it is well recognized that peptide hormones can have systemic effects (paraneoplastic syndromes) and several have been shown to be autocrine growth factors for cancer cells, In order to determine the relationship between expression of different aspects of the NE phenotype in lung cancer cell lines, we have compared expression of a gene required for biosynthesis of some active peptide hormones (PAM, peptidyglycine α-amidating monooxygenase) to the gene for AADC in 32 lung cancer cell lines. Expression of these genes was quantified by both steady state Northern blot analysis and radiochemical enzymatic activity measurement. To ensure a range of expression of NE markers, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines were chosen to include several which had previously been shown to express NE markers, and several small cell lung cancer (SCLC) cell lines with previous low level of AADC were included. PAM enzyme activity and Northern blot analysis showed a two to three log variation in level of expression in both the small cell and non-small cell lines. A smaller range was found for AADC expression. Using the highly sensitive PAM enzyme assays, all cell lines were found to express detectable PAM. PAM activities were secreted into the growth medium of all cell lines.There was so simple correlation apparent betwenn AADC and PAM gene expression in the lung cancer cell lines. However, calssic small cell lines demonstrated high levels of expression of both PAM and AADC genes, as did the carcinoid subset of the NSCLC lines. NSCLC lines expressed levels of PAM mRNA and enzyme activities equivalent to those of SCLC, but had infrequent expression of AADC (principlly only carcinoid NSCLC expressed AADC). These data demonstrate that separate aspects of the NE phenotype can be diffrentially expresses in lung cancer histological sub-type. Expression of PAM enzymes in all sub-tupe of lung cancer suggests that peptide prohormone activitioin may be common mechanism for autocrine growth stimulation even in non-NE NSCLC cell lines, or may reflect maintenance in cell lines of a common pathway of lung tumor promotion. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.This article is a US Government work and, as such, is in the public domain in the United States of America.

It is hoped that through broadening our understanding of the mechanisms involved in transformation of bronchial epithelial cells we will be able to improve methods of diagnosis and treatment of this disease, with the ultimate goal of reducing on lung cancer mortality. A knowledge of the molecular mechanisms involved in processes such as cell division and differentiation is paramount to this task, because it is known that aberrant responses to growth factors or cytokines found in the normal celluar milieu can lead to abnormal cell growth and/or transformation. Signals initiated at the cell membrane by tumor promoters, growth factors, or cytokines are transduced from the cell membrane to the nucleus and are, in part, mediated centrally by transcription factors encoded by nuclear protooncogenes. The transcription factor myc, jun, and fos have been characterized in both normal and transformed lung epithelial cells through detailed studies using cell lines. In this manuscript, we review what is known about the expression and regulation of these nuclear protooncogenes in normal and malignant epithelial cells of the lung, and their role in the development of lung cancer. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.This article is a US Government work and, as such, is in the public domain in the United States of America.

    Notes: Previously, GRP receptors wer charachterized in sasmll cell lung cancer cells and here non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells were investigated: (125I-Tyr4) bombesin (BN) or 125I-GRP bound with high affinity to NCI-H720 (lung carcioid) and NCI-H1299 (large cell carcinoma) cells. Binding was specific, time dependent, and saturable. Specific (125I-Tyr4) BN binding to NCI-H1299 cells was inhibited with high affinity by GRP, BN, GRP14-27, (D-Phe6)BN6-13methyl ester, moderate affinity by NMB, and low affinity by NMB, and low, and low affinity by GRP1-16. BN (10nM) transiently elevated cytosolic calcium in a dose dependent manner. BN caused translocation of protein kinase C from the cytosol to the membrane and the translocation caused by BN was reversed by (D-Phe6)BN6-13 methylester. BN stimulated arachidonic acid release and the increase caused by BN was reversed by (D-Phe6)BN6-13 methylester. Using a clonogenic assay, BN stimulated the growth of NCI-H720 cells, and ythe number of colonies was reduced using (D-Phe6)BN6-13 methylester. These data suggest that GRP receptors that are present in lung carcinoid and NSCLC cells may regulate proliferation. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.This article is a US Government work and, as such, is in the public domain in the United States of America.

    Notes: The effect of a combination of anti-transferrin receptor (TFR) antibody, 42/6, and Ga(No3)3 on cell growth was examined in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) cell lines: classic, NCl-H209, NCl-H345, NCl-H510; and variant, NCl-H82 and NCl-N417. The role of TFR and transferrin(TF) in Ga(No3)3 cellular uptake was also tested. Exogenous TF did not enhance the cytotoxicity of Ga. At 〉 3 μg/mL, Ga(No3)3 inhibited growth in all cell lines in TF-supplemented or deficient media. At 〈 3 μg/mL, Ga stimulated growth for all cells but this effect was eliminated by TF or 42/6. Classic SCLC lines required 3-4-fold less exogenous gallium than variant lines to reduce cell number by 50%. The mean Ga uptake (ng/106 cells) in H345 and H209 cell lines was 4-5-fold compared to H82 and N417 uptake (P 〈 0.001). 42/6 reduced exogenous TF-stimulated growth. Antibody plus Ga(No3)3 caused a slight further cell number decline in all cell lines in TF-supplemented or deficient media. These results suggest that the addition of 42/6 antibody treatment would not increase the effectiveness of Ga(No3)3 in patients. Both exogenous and endogenous TF and TFR play an important role in Ga uptake in these cells. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: This is the second publication of Clinical Development Plans from the National Cancer Institute, Division of Cancer Prevention and Control, Chemoprevention Branch and Agent Development Committee. The Clinical Development Plans summarize the status of promising chemopreventive agents regarding evidence for safety and chemopreventive efficacy in preclinical and clinical studies. They also contain the strategy for further development of these drugs, addressing pharmacodynamics, drug effect measurements, intermediate biomarkers for monitoring efficacy, toxicity, supply and formulation, regulatory approval, and proposed clinical trials. Sixteen new Clinical Development Plans are presented here: curcumin, dehydroepiandrosterone, folic acid, genistein, indole-3-carbinol, perillyl alcohol, phenethyl isothiocyanate, 9-cis-retinoic acid, 13-cis-retinoic acid, l-selenomethionine and 1,4-phenylenebis(methylene)selenocyanate, sulindac sulfone, tea, ursodiol, vitamin A, and (+)-vorozole. The objective of publishing these plans is to stimulate interest and thinking among the scientific community on the prospects for developing these and future generations of chemopreventive drugs. © 1997 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Pathways involved in the transduction of biological signals within cells overlap with those involved in oncogenesis. Previous studies have identified a number of discrete disturbances of some elements of these pathways in human lung cancer cells, by virtue of the overexpression or the mutation of certain key molecules. The sequence of biochemical events triggered by a mitogenic stimulus such as the exposure to bombesin-like peptides are being unravelled. The opportunity exists to identify additional changes involving regulatory proteins which may contribute to the regulation of these systems and which may function as suppressors of the malignant phenotype. Furthermore, the understanding of these pathways may identify targets for the pharmacological regulation of tumor cell response to mitogens which may be usable in the clinic. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: The ability of monoclonal antibody (mAb) αI̊-3 to interact with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells was investigated. MAb αI̊-3 inhibited specific binding of 125I-IGF-I and 125I-αI̊-3 to a panel of 8 NSCLC cell lines with high affinity (IC50 = 200 and 50 ng/ml, respectively). 125I-αI̊-3 bound with high affinity (Kd = 40 ng/ml) to a single class of sites (Bmax = 8,000/cell) using NCI-H838 cells. 125I-αI̊-3 was internalized when exposed to NCI-H838 or H1299 cells at 37°C but not 4°C. αI̊-3 immunoprecipitated major 90 and 130 kD proteins. IGF-I stimulated and αI̊-3 inhibited the clonal growth of NCI-H1299 cells. αI̊-3 slowed the growth of NCI-H157 and H838 xenografts in nude mice. In a biodistribution study 125I-αI̊-3 was preferentially localized to the tumor as opposed to other organs. These data suggest that IGF-I may be a regulatory agent in NSCLC. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.This article is a US Government work and, as such, is in the public domain in the United States of America.
