    Notes: Abstract: Tumorigenesis is often characterized by a combination of aberrant proliferation and the inappropriate suppression of apoptosis. In breast cancer, a variety of growth factors and hormones, as well as attachment to extracellular matrix, can regulate both cell growth and cell death via apoptosis, suggesting that the two processes may be closely linked. A better understanding of the mechanism by which those factors regulate the cell cycle and the apoptotic pathways could therefore be very useful in designing novel therapies for breast cancer.

    Notes: [Auszug] BREAST CANCER is a leading and feared cause of cancer deaths among women. The antiestrogen, tamoxifen, has been used in its treatment for more than 20 years and now recent clinical trials point to a promising role for tamoxifen and related agents in breast cancer prevention1–3. In addition, ...

    Notes: Abstract The proto-oncogene c-myc is commonly amplified and overexpressed in human breast tumors, and the tumorigenic potential of c-myc overexpression in mammary tissue has been confirmed by both in vitro and in vivo models of breast cancer. However, the mechanisms by which Myc promotes tumorigenesis are not well understood. Recent evidence indicates that Myc can promote cell proliferation as well as cell death via apoptosis. These studies provide new insight and impetus in defining a role for c-Myc in breast tumorigenesis and may point toward novel targets for breast cancer therapy.

    Notes: Abstract Hormone responsiveness is a critical determinantof breast cancer progression and management, and theresponse to endocrine therapy is highly correlated withthe estrogen receptor (ER)3 and progesterone receptor (PR) status of tumor cells. Thus, keyareas of study in breast cancer are those mechanismsthat regulate ER and PR expression in normal andmalignant breast tissues. One-third of all breastcancers lack ER and PR; these conditions are associatedwith less differentiated tumors and poorer clinicaloutcome. In addition, approximately one-half ofER-positive tumors lack PR protein and patients withthis phenotype are less likely to respond tohormonal therapies than those whose tumors express bothreceptors. Since PR is induced by ER; its presence is amarker of a functional ER. In this review, we will discuss possible mechanisms for loss of ER andPR gene expression, especially structural changes withineach gene including deletions, polymorphisms ormethylation. Improved understanding of the pathways that lead to loss of ER and/or PR proteinsshould allow the development of better predictiveindicators as well as novel therapeutic approaches totarget these hormone-independent cancers.

    Notes: Abstract Tail kinks (tk) is a classical mouse skeletal mutation, located on Chromosome (Chr) 9. As the first step for the positional cloning of the tk gene, we have established a genetic map of a region surrounding the tk locus by generating a backcross segregating for tk. From this backcross, 1004 progeny were analyzed for the coat-color phenotype of the proximally located dilute (d) gene and for the distally flanking microsatellite marker, D9Mit12. Fifty-six recombinants between d and tk and 75 recombinants between tk and D9Mit12 were identified, completing a panel of 130 recombinants including one double recombinant. This panel allowed us to map five microsatellite loci as well as d and Mod-1 with respect to tk. We show that one of the microsatellite markers mapped, D9Mit9, does not recombine at all with tk in our backcross. This indicates that the D9Mit9 locus will serve as a good starting point for a chromosomal walk to the tk gene.

    Notes: Abstract A new method for typing the Mod-1 locus on mouse Chromosome (Chr) 9 was developed, based on restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) within a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-amplified fragment. The new method led us to revise the strain distribution pattern (SDP) of Mod-1 in the BXD (C57BL/6JxDBA/2J) and AKXD (AKR/J x DBA/2J) recombinant inbred (RI) strains. The new SDP eliminates several previously reported examples of double recombination events between Mod-1 and the closest flanking loci in the BXD and AKXD strains. In the BXD strains, the revised SDP of Mod-1 was identical to that of the Mod-1-related D9Rtil locus. Thus, the identity of D9Rtil as a Mod-1-related locus rather than Mod-1 itself is in question. The method was also applied to an interspecific backcross panel between an inbred strain of Mus musculus molossinus (MSM/Ms) and C57BL/6J to map Mod-1 with respect to surrounding microsatellite loci, defining the proximal localization of Mod-1 with respect to D9Mit10 with a genetic distance of 0.6±0.6 cM.

    Notes: Heparin binds to bovine sperm and stimulates capacitation in vitro. Seminal plasma alters the ability of epididymal sperm to bind heparin, and several heparin-binding proteins (HBPs) have been identified in bull seminal plasma. This study had three objectives: (1) to identify production sites of seminal plasma HBPs, (2) to determine which HBPs bound to cauda epididymal sperm, and (3) to determine whether presence of HBPs was testosterone dependent. Proteins from bull or rat seminal vesicles, prostates, and bulbourethral glands were separated by heparin affinity high-performance liquid chromatography. HBPs were found in all accessory glands of rats and bulls, but the major source of bovine seminal plasma HBPs appeared to be seminal vesicles. Between 25% and 50% of the protein from each gland bound to the heparin column, and NaCl concentrations required to elute proteins ranged from 0.15 to 1.4 M. One-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) showed that major HBPs were relatively small, with molecular weights between 13 and 31 kDa, but some HBPs also exhibited higher molecular weights, between 40 and 100 kDa. Radioiodinated HBPs from each bovine gland were incubated with epididymal sperm. Labeled HBPs binding to sperm exhibited molecular weights of 14, 16, 24, and 30 kDa as determined by SDS-PAGE and autoradiography. The HBP content of the accessory sex glands decreased significantly in castrated rats and was restored to levels of sham-operated controls by testosterone replacement. Heparin-binding proteins may play a role in fertilization by attaching to sperm surfaces, enabling heparin-like glycosaminoglycans in the female reproductive tract to induce capacitation.
