Severe progressive deformities after limb lengthening in type-II fibular hemimelia

Until recently the accepted treatment of choice for severe type-II fibular hemimelia has been Syme's or Boyd's amputation. The alternative of distraction lengthening using the Ilizarov technique is now available. We report three patients (four limbs) with type-II fibular hemimelia who were treated by the Ilizarov technique and followed up for two to six years. Severe progressive procurvatum and valgus deformity of the tibia and valgus deformity and lateral subluxation of the ankle were found in all four limbs. Multiple additional soft-tissue and bony surgery was necessary. In view of these problems we feel that reappraisal of the indications for lengthening in type-II fibular hemimelia is necessary.     

Mechanisms of insulin resistance in experimental hyperinsulinemic dogs

The aim of this work was to identify which proteins in horse dander extracts are allergens and to characterise them. Two-dimensional PAGE showed that horse dander preparations are composed of up to 50 proteins, all having acidic isoelectric points in the pH range 3-4.5. Immunoblots of two-dimensional PAGE were used to compare the reactivity of the proteins with IgE from 23 allergic patients. Patient sera were divided into two main groups recognising either allergens of 18.5 kDa or proteins of 27-29 and 31 kDa. The proteins of 27-29 kDa and 31 kDa were all N-glycosylated and their glycan chains seem to play a role in the binding of IgE from allergic patients. The sugar composition of their carbohydrate moiety was determined and lectin-binding experiments indicated presence of terminal sialic acid linked alpha-(2-->6) to galactose, galactose linked beta-(1-->4) to N-acetylglucosamine, and possibly presence of sialic acid linked alpha-(2-->3) to galactose. The 27-29-kDa glycoproteins had heterogeneous isoelectric points, most probably due to different degrees of sialylation in their oligosaccharide chains. The two 18.5-kDa allergens exhibited slightly different isoelectric points and their N-terminal sequences were identical, showing that they most likely were isoforms of the same protein. Sequence analyses revealed that their N-terminal sequences are similar to proteins belonging to the lipocalin family. We named the two 18.5-kDa proteins Equ c 2.0101 and Equ c 2.0102, according to International Allergen Nomenclature recommendations [King, T. P., Hoffman, D., Lowenstein, H., Marsh, D. G., Platts-Mills, T. A. E. & Thomas, W. (1995) J. Allergy Clin. Immunol. 96, 5-14]. The N-terminal of the allergens of 27-29 kDa were blocked and their sequences were not determined. Their amino acid compositions were determined and comparison with acidic mammalian proteins in the Swiss-Prot database revealed high scores with lipocalin proteins. This suggests that the glycosylated horse dander allergens belong to the lipocalin family, like Equ c 2.0101 and Equ c 2.0102.     

Kalkipyrone, a toxic gamma-pyrone from an assemblage of the marine cyanobacteria Lyngbya majuscula and Tolypothrix sp

A new interest in replacing neurons lost to trauma or disease has been generated by findings that challenge the traditional view of the static (irreparable) adult brain. The discovery of stem cells and neurogenesis in the adult central nervous system is responsible for much of this interest.

Unexpected return of spontaneous circulation after cessation of resuscitation (Lazarus phenomenon)

The heterocyclic amine 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-beta]pyridine NPhIP) is a major dietary component in individuals eating cooked meats or fish. This heterocyclic amine requires biochemical activation, mainly through cytochrome P4501A2, and can be detoxified chiefly by 4'hydroxylation through other cytochromes, and be in turn converted through phase 2 enzymes to readily excreted conjugates. The active form of PhIP is mutagenic in Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and is a useful substrate to study the possible chemoprotective action of phytochemicals. We found that black and green tea depressed the mutagenicity of PhIP in dose-related fashion, and decaffeinated tea was less powerful an inhibitor. This led to the study of caffeine, that displayed effective dose-related inhibition of the mutagenicity of PhIP. Other antioxidants such as lycopene, the active antioxidant from tomatoes, and daidzein and genistein from soy products, also had a dose-related inhibition of the mutagenicity of PhIP. We conclude that PhIP is a good substrate found in several human foods to determine the protective effect of phytochemicals from vegetables, and beverages.     

Synthesis and characterization of block copolymers from D,L-lactide and poly(tetramethylene ether glycol)

The copolymer from D ,L -lactide and poly(tetramethyene ether glycol) (PTMG) was prepared in bulk with an isotributyl aluminum–water–phosphoric acid complex catalyst as the initiator and characterized by H-NMR, GPC, and DSC. The effects of the temperature and the amount of PTMG on the polymerization rate and the molecular weight of copolymers were studied. The behavior of the degradation and delivery rate of Levonorgestrel microspheres in vitro was observed. The results show that the degradation and the delivery rate can be controlled by adjusting the molar rate of hydrophilic and hydrophobic segments of the copolymer © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Fenoldopam: a new dopamine agonist for the treatment of hypertensive urgencies and emergencies

Vascular nephropathies are a steadily increasing cause of end-stage renal failure. Arterionephrosclerosis and arteriolonephrosclerosis are common features in the hypertensive patient. This is especially true for blacks of African descent, in whom hypertension and nephrovasculopathies are a major cause of renal insufficiency. That primary hypertension leads to renal vascular lesions, glomerular obsolescence and interstitial fibrosis has long been established. It should not, however, obscure the fact that renal vascular lesions can be observed in animal models as well as in some humans, especially young blacks, in the absence of, or anticipating the onset of hypertension. This leads to considering the hypothesis that nephroangiosclerosis might stem from a genetic defect in the renal vascular bed and that this defect is strongly associated with the hypertensive trait. Atherosclerotic renal disease is a major, potentially treatable cause of chronic renal disease is a major, potentially treatable cause of chronic renal failure, especially in whites. It leads to renal atrophy, but the ischemic kidney retains a vigorous potential for tubular cell regeneration, which pleads for early recognition and treatment. Recent data suggest that renal ischemia, be it due to renal artery stenosis or to cholesterol crystal embolism, ranks among the multiple causes of secondary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. Irrespective of its initial mechanism, ischemia induces renal fibrosis, the pathophysiology of which is centered on increased generation of angiotensin II. Finally, renal vascular lesions are commonly observed in the course of various nephropathies, even in the absence of hypertension, and the relationship between these lesions and the unfavorable prognosis of glomerulopathies, especially primary focal-segmental glomerulosclerosis, membranous glomerulopathy and IgA glomerulonephritis, remains to be elucidated. Expanding knowledge of the spectrum of nephrovasculopathies opens perspectives for investigating, understanding and treating a major mechanism of progressive renal insufficiency.
