    Notes: ABT-594 [(R)-5-(2-azetedinylmethoxy)-2-chloropyridine mono-tosylate salt] is a neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) agonist with antinociceptive activity in rodent pain models. Whereas the binding affinity of ABT-594 at α4β2-containing nAChRs is comparable to that of (±)-epibatidine, ABT-594 has lower affinity than (±)-epibatidine at α3-containing nAChRs. Similarly, ABT-594 is approximately equivalent to (±)-epibatidine in a Ca2+ flux assay in K-177 cells that express 04132 nAChRs but less potent than (±)-epibatidine in the IMR-32 (α3-containing) cell line. ABT-594 is active in a variety of rodent models of acute thermal (mouse hot-plate, rat thermal paw withdrawal), persistent chemical (mouse abdominal constriction, rat formalin) and neuropathic (diabetic neuropathy and Chung spinal nerve ligation in rats) pain. Effects of ABT-594 on acute thermal pain appear to be mediated centrally and may involve activation of descending inhibition originating in the brainstem. ABT-594 decreases responses of wide dynamic range neurons in the dorsal lumbar spinal cord to noxious thermal and mechanical stimuli but does not alter responses of these neurons to innocuous stimuli. ABT-594 has plasma elimination half life ranging from 〈 0.5 h in mice to 4.7 h in dogs and readily penetrates the CNS. Oral bioavailability ranges from 35 to 80% in a variety of species. In rats, the majority of ABT-594 is excreted in the urine after both oral and intravenous administration, and parent drug accounts for better than 75% of total radioactivity in plasma after administration of labeled ABT-594 (AUC0–12)

    Vulnerability of Midbrain Dopaminergic Neurons in Calbindin-D28k-deficient Mice: Lack of Evidence for a Neuroprotective Role of Endogenous Calbindin in MPTPtreated and Weaver Mice (1997)

    Notes: Calbindin-D28k (calbindin) is an intracellular calcium binding protein of unknown in vivo function. It is abundantly expressed in many populations of neurons, and it can, presumably by buffering calcium overload, protect cells against excitotoxic damage. In the midbrain, calbindin is preferentially expressed in those dopamine neurons which are spared from degeneration in Parkinson's disease and its animal models. Whether calbindin itself determines neuronal vulnerability is questioned in other lesion models where calbindin expression is not positively correlated with neuronal resistance. To study the possible neuroprotective role of calbindin in vivo, we generated calbindin-deficient mice by gene targeting and assessed the viability of midbrain dopamine neurons in both a chemical and a genetic lesion paradigm. Tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactive neurons were counted in calbindin null-mutant mice treated with the neurotoxin 1 -methyl-4-phenyl-1, 2, 3, 6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) and in a calbindin-deficient weaver strain (homozygous for weaver and the calbindin null mutation). The extent and pattern of neuron loss observed in MPTP-treated wild-type and homozygous weaver mice were as previously described. Surprisingly, no significant differences were observed between MPTP-treated calbindin null mutants and their wild-type littermates, or between calbindin-weaver double mutant mice and weaver mice. Thus, in all four groups the same subpopulation of tyrosine hydroxylase-positive midbrain neurons (i.e. those normally containing calbindin) were preferentially spared. Calretinin, a closely related calcium-binding protein, which is also expressed in some midbrain dopamine neurons, was not up-regulated in these surviving neurons. These findings indicate that the resistance of calbindin-containing neurons in the MPTP and weaver models is not causally related to the expression of calbindin, and that endogenous calbindin is not required for protection of these neurons.

    Do Pharmaceuticals, Pathogens, and Other Organic Waste Water Compounds Persist When Waste Water Is Used for Recharge? (2004)

    Notes: A proof-of-concept experiment was devised to determine if pharmaceuticals and other organic waste water compounds (OWCs), as well as pathogens, found in treated effluent could be transported through a 2.4 m soil column and, thus, potentially reach ground water under recharge conditions similar to those in arid or semiarid climates. Treated effluent was applied at the top of the 2.4 m long, 32.5 cm diameter soil column over 23 days. Samples of the column inflow were collected from the effluent storage tank at the beginning (Tbegin) and end (Tend) of the experiment, and a sample of the soil column drainage at the base of the column (Bend) was collected at the end of the experiment. Samples were analyzed for 131 OWCs including veterinary and human antibiotics, other prescription and nonprescription drugs, widely used household and industrial chemicals, and steroids and reproductive hormones, as well as the pathogens Salmonella and Legionella. Analytical results for the two effluent samples taken at the beginning (Tbegin) and end (Tend) of the experiment indicate that the number of OWCs detected in the column inflow decreased by 25% (eight compounds) and the total concentration of OWCs decreased by 46% while the effluent was in the storage tank during the 23-day experiment. After percolating through the soil column, an additional 18 compounds detected in Tend (67% of OWCs) were no longer detected in the effluent (Bend) and the total concentration of OWCs decreased by more than 70%. These compounds may have been subject to transformation (biotic and abiotic), adsorption, and (or) volatilization in the storage tank and during travel through the soil column. Eight compounds—carbamazapine; sulfamethoxazole; benzophenone; 5-methyl-1H-benzotriazole; N, N-diethyltoluamide; tributylphosphate; tri(2-chloroethyl) phosphate; and cholesterol—were detected in all three samples indicating they have the potential to reach ground water under recharge conditions similar to those in arid and semiarid climates. Results from real-time polymerase chain reactions demonstrated the presence of Legionella in all three samples. Salmonella was detected only in Tbegin, suggesting that the bacteria died off in the effluent storage tank over the period of the experiment. This proof-of-concept experiment demonstrates that, under recharge conditions similar to those in arid or semiarid climates, some pharmaceuticals, pathogens, and other OWCs can persist in treated effluent after soil-aquifer treatment.

    Pharmaceuticals and Other Organic Waste Water Contaminants Within a Leachate Plume Downgradient of a Municipal Landfill (2004)

    Notes: Ground water samples collected from the Norman Landfill research site in central Oklahoma were analyzed as part of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Toxic Substances Hydrology Program's national reconnaissance of pharmaceuticals and other organic waste water contaminants (OWCs) in ground water. Five sites, four of which are located downgradient of the landfill, were sampled in 2000 and analyzed for 76 OWCs using four research methods developed by the USGS. OWCs were detected in water samples from all of the sites sampled, with 22 of the 76 OWCs being detected at least once. Cholesterol (a plant and animal steroid), was detected at all five sites and was the only compound detected in a well upgradient of the landfill. N,N-diethyltoluamide (DEBT used in insect repellent) and tri(2-chloroethyl) phosphate (fire-retardant) were detected in water samples from all four sites located within the landfill-derived leachate plume. The sites closest to the landfill had more detections and greater concentrations of each of the detected compounds than sites located farther away. Detection of multiple OWCs occurred in the four sites located within the leachate plume, with a minimum of four and a maximum of 17 OWCs detected. Because the landfill was established in the 1920s and closed in 1985, many compounds detected in the leachate plume were likely disposed of decades ago. These results indicate the potential for long-term persistence and transport of some OWCs in ground water.

    ASPECTS OF THE UNDERWATER LIGHT FIELD OF EIGHT CENTRAL NEW YORK LAKES (1987)

    Notes: : The underwater light field of eight central New York lakes, which represent a wide range of trophic state, was characterized through paired measurements of Sechi disc transparency (SD, m) and diffuse light attenuation (Kd, m−1). A total of 90 paired measurements are included in the data base. Substantial variability in the Kd SD product with time within individual systems, and amongst systems, was observed, which indicates differences in the relative contributions of absorption and scattering to attenuation. More than 50 percent of the temporal variability in Kd was attributable to attendant variations in chlorophyll a (C, mg m−3) in only two of the lakes. Estimates of the adsorption (a, m−1) and scattering (b, m−1) coefficients based on paired Kd and SD measurements compared well with more precise determinations available for one of the lakes. Determinations of a and b for the eight lakes, from SD and Kd measurements, indicated great system-specificity and temporal variability in these characteristics. The temporal variability in relative contributions of a and b to Kd is consistent with covariation of different attenuating components and the lack of correlation between C and Kd in most of the study lakes.

Structural Determination by Chemical Correlation with Bafilomycin A1 and LeucanicidinFrom cultures of an actinomycete strain, the known antifungal and insecticidal antibiotic leucanicidin (1) and a hitherto unknown antifungal antibiotic, bafilomycin-A1-21-O-(α-L-rhamnopyranoside) (2), were isolated. The latter is spectroscopically closely related to 1 and bafilomycin A1 (3) and gave degradation products identical with compounds obtained by analogous degradation of 1 and 3.

    Notes: Metabolites of Microorganisms. Sulfur-Containing Ansa Compounds of the Naphthomycin TypeFrom a strain of Streptomyces (Tü 2357) in addition to naphthomycin A, 4 new yellow pigments were isolated and their structures determined by spectroscopic comparison with naphthomycin A. Whereas the naphthomycins D and E are simple derivatives of naphthomycin A, having OH and H, respectively, instead of Cl, the naphthomycins F and G contain an N-acetylcysteine residue linked to the aromatic moiety by a thioether group. Degradations with O3 yielded identical products from the naphthomycins A, D, F, and G, showing coincident configurations in parts of the molecules. Naphthomycin F shows some biological activity against gram-positive bacteria and fungi, although much weaker than naphthomycin A. The naphthomycins D, E, and G are inactive against microorganisms.

    First-pass myocardial perfusion imaging with whole-heart coverage using L1-SPIRiT accelerated variable density spiral trajectories (2015)
    Wiley-Blackwell
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-11-06
    Description: Purpose To design and evaluate two-dimensional (2D) L1-SPIRiT accelerated spiral pulse sequences for first-pass myocardial perfusion imaging with whole heart coverage capable of measuring eight slices at 2 mm in-plane resolution at heart rates up to 125 beats per minute (BPM). Methods Combinations of five different spiral trajectories and four k-t sampling patterns were retrospectively simulated in 25 fully sampled datasets and reconstructed with L1-SPIRiT to determine the best combination of parameters. Two candidate sequences were prospectively evaluated in 34 human subjects to assess in vivo performance. Results A dual density broad transition spiral trajectory with either angularly uniform or golden angle in time k-t sampling pattern had the largest structural similarity and smallest root mean square error from the retrospective simulation, and the L1-SPIRiT reconstruction had well-preserved temporal dynamics. In vivo data demonstrated that both of the sampling patterns could produce high quality perfusion images with whole-heart coverage. Conclusion First-pass myocardial perfusion imaging using accelerated spirals with optimized trajectory and k-t sampling pattern can produce high quality 2D perfusion images with whole-heart coverage at the heart rates up to 125 BPM.

    Intronic promoters and their noncoding transcripts: A new source of cancer-associated genes (2012)
    Wiley-Blackwell
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-08-29
    Description: Recent studies of mammalian genomes suggest that alternative promoters are associated with various disorders, including cancer. Here we present an intronic promoter of the murine proteinase 3 gene, which drives the expression of an alternative mRNA in intron 2 of the prtn3 gene. The proximal promoter sequences were identified and a series of promoter deletion constructs were used to identify the sequence elements that are required for basal promoter activity. Expression of the homeobox transcription factor CUX1 p75 isoform was found to suppress the activity of the alternative PR3 promoter. Data base analyses, multiple alignments and expression data showed that the intronic PR3 promoter is active in leukemia and other tumor cells as well as in mouse embryo, male mammary gland and bone marrow. In the spleen, the transcript is exclusively expressed by Gr-1 int /CD11b + cells, which are also known as myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). In humans, an alternative transcript of the PR3-gene could be detected in the bone marrow and in various cancer cell lines but not in primary leukemia cells, suggesting a species-overarching function of this kind of promoter. Therefore, the alternative PR3 promoter and its mRNA may be useful tools to investigate the fate of hematopoietic stem cells. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
