    Notes: The benefit of DDD(R) pacing is proven even in patients with intermittent atrial fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation developing during dual chamber pacemaker implantation creates a difficult problem. Maneuvers to reestablish a stable atrial rhythm often are required if atrial fibrillation sets in. This study was performed to determine if atrial lead placement can be performed with acceptable long-term results in the presence of atrial fibrillation. Twenty-one patients in whom atrial fibrillation developed during permanent pacemaker implantation were included in this study. In 12 patients, episodes of intermittent atrial fibrillation had been documented before the procedure. Screw-in leads were used in 15 patients and J-shaped passive fixation leads in 6 patients. AH leads were bipolar. The intraoperative atrial fibrillation electrogram amplitudes ranged from 0.9 to 3.2 mV (mean 1.8 ± 0.6 mV). One patient required lead revision due to a high atrial pacing threshold after conversion to SR. One patient remained in atrial fibrillation at 3-month follow-up. The other 20 patients converted to SR, 11 of whom had intermittent atrial fibrillation with successful mode switch activation. P wave amplitudes were 2.8 ± 6 mV (range 1.4 to 4.0 mV) after conversion to SR. The mean atrial pacing threshold was 1.1 ± 0.5 V (range 0.5 to 3.5 V). Placement of atrial leads in patients who develop atrial fibrillation during pacemaker implantation is feasible; fibrillatory electrogram amplitudes showed a good correlation with the atrial signal after conversion to an organized atrial rhythm (r = 0.698). Acceptable atrial pacing thresholds can be expected as well.

    Notes: Simultaneous in situ analysis of the structure and function of bacterial cells present within complex communities is a key for improving our understanding of microbial ecology. A protocol for the in situ identification of Listeria spp. using fluorescently tagged, rRNA-targeted oligonucleotide probes was developed. Ethanol fixation and enzymatic pretreatment with lysozyme and proteinase K were used to optimize whole cell hybridization of exponential phase and stationary phase Listeria spp. cells. In parallel, transcript probes carrying multiple digoxigenin molecules were combined with anti-digoxigenin Fab antibody fragments labeled with horseradish peroxidase to detect, via the catalytic deposition of fluorescein-tyramide, the iap-mRNA in single Listeria monocytogenes cells. The iap gene encodes the associated virulence factor p60. Application of the new signal amplification technique resulted in strong signals comparable in intensity to those obtained with fluorescently labeled rRNA-targeted oligonucleotide probes.

    Notes: Abstract Using a bovine rod photoreceptor cell-specific ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter cDNA we have cloned the full-length transcript of the homologous human gene and demonstrate that it is identical to the photoreceptor cell-specific ABC transporter (ABCR) recently shown to be mutated in Stargardt’s disease. By fluorescence in situ hybridization we have mapped the ABCR gene to chromosomal band 1p21–p22.1. Mutational analysis of part of the gene in 15 Stargardt’s disease patients has identified four disease-causing mutations, of which two represent potential null alleles. This brings the total number of independently identified mutations to 23, providing further evidence that the human ABCR gene is associated with Stargardt’s disease.

    Notes: Abstract Sequences homologous to human and bovine TSPY were isolated from M. musculus testicular cDNA, and a nearly full-length gene was polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified from mouse genomic DNA. This gene is apparently non-functional. Contrary to the situation encountered in species along the primate and artiodactyl lineages, in which TSPY is moderately repetitive, murine Tspy appears to be single copy. Murine Tspy is located on Yp, i.e. in the same syntenic group as in man. Sequence comparisons of murine, human and bovine TSPY exons suggest that TSPY became non-functional during rodent evolution.
