    Notes: Nociception evoked prostaglandin (PG) release in the spinal cord considerably contributes to the induction of hyperalgesia and allodynia. To evaluate the relative contribution of cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and COX-2 in this process we assessed the effects of the selective COX-1 inhibitor SC560 and the selective COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib on formalin-evoked nociceptive behaviour and spinal PGE2 release. SC560 (10 and 20 mg/kg) significantly reduced the nociceptive response and completely abolished the formalin-evoked PGE2 raise. In contrast, celecoxib (10 and 20 mg/kg) was ineffective in both regards, i.e. the flinching behaviour was largely unaltered and the formalin-induced PGE2 raise as assessed using microdialysis was only slightly, not significantly reduced. This suggests that the formalin-evoked rapid PG release was primarily caused by COX-1 and was independent of COX-2. Mean free spinal cord concentrations of celecoxib during the formalin assay were 32.0 ± 4.5 nm, thus considerably higher than the reported IC50 for COX-2 (3–7 nm). Therefore, the lack of efficacy of celecoxib is most likely not to be a result of poor tissue distribution. COX-2 mRNA and protein expression in the spinal cord were not affected by microdialysis alone but the mRNA rapidly increased following formalin injection and reached a maximum at 2 h. COX-2 protein was unaltered up to 4 h after formalin injection. The time course of COX-2 up-regulation suggests that the formalin-induced nociceptive response precedes COX-2 protein de novo synthesis and may therefore be unresponsive to COX-2 inhibition. Considering the results obtained with the formalin model it may be hypothesized that the efficacy of celecoxib in early injury evoked pain may be less than that of unselective NSAIDs.

    Notes: Since the important contributions of Dürbaum and Dix, 30 years ago, velocity profile estimation procedures on horizontally layered and vertically heterogeneous media from seismic probing data have been based largely on hyperbolic moveout models and RMS and stacking velocity concepts. Re-examination of the fundamentals reveals that quantitative velocity heterogeneity and canonical valocity profiles have been implicit factors for moveout modelling and for profile inversion in the use of the Dix procedure. Heterogeneity h is the ratio (and vRMS the geometric or harmonic mean) of the path-average and time-average velocities for a raypath or, in a more restricted sense, for the normal ray belonging to a velocity profile. The canonical profile for a given velocity profile or profile segment is a moveout-equivalent monotonically increasing ramp-like profile.The ramp or constant gradient in depth is the simplest velocity profile approximator which can explicitly accommodate velocity heterogeneity. A ramp model structure is detailed which facilitates moveout simulation and model parameter estimation, and the parametric effects are explored. The horizontal offset range is quantified for which this model can give good moveout approximations.

    Notes: Critical currents of YBa2Cu3O7−δ bulk-sintered samples were measured at and above 77 K in the presence of magnetic fields. In moderate magnetic fields a H−n dependence with n〈1 was observed. Transport measurements give n(approximately-equal-to)0.5, indicating that critical currents are limited by flux creep rather than by field quenching of Josephson junctions.

    Notes: The recovery of structural defects in gallium nitride (GaN) and aluminum nitride (AlN) after implantation of 111In+ and 89Sr+ in the dose range (0.1–3) 1013 cm−2 and ion energies of 60–400 keV has been investigated as a function of annealing temperature with emission channeling (EC) and perturbed γγ angular correlation spectroscopy. The implanted In and Sr atoms occupied substitutional sites in heavily perturbed surroundings of point defects after room temperature implantation. No amorphization of the lattice structure was observed. The point defects could be partly removed after annealing to 1473 K for 10–30 min. Lattice site occupation of implanted light alkalis, 24Na+ in GaN and AlN as well as 8Li+ in AlN, were also determined by EC as a function of implantation and annealing temperature. These atoms occupied mainly interstitial sites at room temperature. Lithium diffusion and the occupation of substitutional sites was observed in GaN and AlN at implantation temperatures above 700 K. A lattice site change was also observed for sodium in AlN, but not in GaN after annealing to 1073 K for 10 min. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A setup for pulse radiolysis experiments is described consisting of the following main components: an array of 15 photomultipliers attached to a spectrograph (allowing 4032 spectra to be recorded with a time resolution of 500 ns per spectrum), self-regulating high-voltage supply for the photomultipliers, computer-controlled solution mixing and dispensing system, and provisions for continuous dose variation of the FEBETRON-accelerator electron beam. The general performance of the system is discussed and construction or electronic details are given for special components.

    Notes: Three selfing and 13 crossing experiments between tetraploid individuals of Achillea ceretanica, Achillea collina, Achillea distans ssp.‘styriaca’ Saukel (ined.), and Achillea pratensis (Achillea millefolium complex, Compositae), five F1 crosses, three backcrosses and one further selfing experiment were carried out in order to study the inheritance of longipinenone (1) and its hydroxyl derivative (2). From these crossings, 1294 plants were studied by qualitative thin layer chromatography. Progenies from parent and F1 plants without longipinenones (0-type, ll) uniformly contained none of these two sesquiterpenes. All other crossing experiments showed typical segregation patterns of 0-type, L-type (longipinenone (1) without hydroxylongipinenone, L.hh) and H-type (hydroxy-longipinenone (2) and occasionally longipinenone, L.H.) in the ratio of 1 : 1 and 1 : 3. According to these results both derivatives are under dominant genetic control regulated by genes L and H, whereby hydroxylation takes place after synthesis of longipinenone (1).

    Notes: Rapid changes of enzyme activity are obtained by post-translational modification of cysteine residues of some chloroplast enzymes. Individual fine-tuning is achieved by specific factors acting upon the redox cycle. In order to study the regulatory properties of these enzymes, they are purified from leaves or in a recombinant form from Escherichia coli. The various factors acting upon the enzyme in vivo can be simulated in vitro. However, in these studies, some subtle technical problems can be encountered. Two cases are presented in this article, and an attempt is made to explain some previous, seemingly contradictory results. The Calvin-cycle enzyme glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase in its less active A8B8 form can be dissociated and thereby activated in vitro simply by diluting out the protein. On the other hand, activation requires the presence of reduced thioredoxin (Td) and an increase in ionic strength when performed at a high protein concentration, as present in vivo. Chloroplast fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) is purified from E. coli as an enzyme similar to that purified from leaves. However, using the standard protocol for lysis of the bacteria leads to a form with some unusual properties as changed isoelectric point, lack of Ca2+/fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) dependency of reductive activation, and lack of activity at high pH and high Mg2+ concentration. These observations are used in order to better understand the characteristics of the activation/inactivation process.

    Notes: The Sc+NO→ScO+N reaction has been investigated in a beam-gas arrangement, with characterization of ScO products by cw laser-induced fluorescence: absorption versus laser frequency over the A 2Π(v′=1)–X 2Σ+(v″=0) band and fluorescence over the A 2Π(v′=1)–X 2Σ+(v″=1) one. It leads to the direct determination of the nascent rotational state distribution in the X 2Σ+(v″=0) level of ScO. This distribution is close to a Prior statistical one, with a well-characterized weak "surprisal," indicating that a momentum constraint takes place during the reaction process. In the frame of this statistical distribution, a new accurate value for the dissociation energy of ScO is proposed: D00(ScO)=(6.92±0.01) eV. Spectroscopic data are reported for the A 2Π(v′=1)–X 2Σ+(v=0) band, up to N=98. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.
