Abstract
Nocturnal spontaneous erections occur in healthy men being strictly correlated with paradoxal sleep phases with rapid eye movements (REM). There are simple methods of NPT recording like stamps test or erectiometers. Rigiscan-Plus device has 2 tensiometric loops and records all changes in tumescence and rigidity also as a response to visual or pharmacological stimulation. In this paper Rigiscan is presented and the role of rigidometry as an additional method in diagnostic of impotence is stressed.

Abstract
A case of unusual subclavian steal syndrome in a 50-years-old man without vertebro-basilar deficiency symptoms is reported. The lack of typical symptoms was caused by an uncommon collateral between the left vertebral and the left external carotid artery. The subclavian steal syndrome was revealed while diagnosing right hemiparesis which was the main cause of hospitalization.

Abstract
Deletions of the short arm of chromosome 3 (3p) have been recognized as characteristic features of clear cell renal cell carcinomas (clear cell RCC). We analysed 55 clear-cell RCCs and 30 non-clear-cell kidney tumours (10 papillary and 7 chromophobic RCCs, 11 oncocytomas and 2 collecting duct carcinomas) in loss of heterozygosity (LOH) studies using microsatellite markers for previously observed regions of common deletions on 3p in kidney tumours (3p25, 3p21.3, 3p14.2 and 3p12-13). Alterations were found in all 55 cases of clear-cell RCCs at two to four of the 3p regions. Extensive losses were not found in non-clear-cell tumours except for collecting duct carcinomas; 1 of 10 papillary RCCs showed interstitial deletion limited to a single 3p21.3 locus. LOH analyses using microsatellite markers for regions of common deletions at 3p may be of value in differential diagnosis of kidney tumours.

Abstract
Previously, we had observed that more than 80% of clear cell renal carcinomas (RCCs) exhibited loss of heterozygosity (LOH) between the microsatellite markers D3S1285 (in 3p14.1) and D3S1295 (in 3p21.1), a region which includes the protein tyrosine phosphatase gamma locus (PTPRG locus, PTP gamma gene) and the 3p14.2 break of the familial RCC-associated translocation, t(3;8)(p14.2;q24), which has been hypothesized to affect expression of an RCC suppressor gene or oncogene. Using seven microsatellite markers and four markers derived from a PTPRG YAC contig, we have further delineated the 3p14.2 region of LOH in RCCs. Eighty-nine % of clear cell RCCs (31 of 35) showed a common region of loss between the D3S1481 and D3S1312 loci which flank the 3p14.2 t(3;8) translocation breakpoint and the PTP gamma gene. The PTP gamma gene occupies approximately 780 kilobase pairs between markers D3S1480 and D3S1312, with its currently defined 5' end greater than 200 kilobase pairs centromeric to the 3p14.2 translocation break. Although most of the RCCs with LOH between D3S1481 and D3S1312 loci have lost at least a portion of one PTP gamma allele, we have tested all known exons of the remaining PTP gamma gene in a number of the kidney tumors and have not observed mutations. Thus, there may be another gene in the vicinity of the 3p14.2 break that is important not only in the familial RCCs in the t(3;8) family but in the majority of clear cell RCCs.

Abstract
Nearly all clear cell renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) exhibit loss of alleles on the short arm of chromosome 3. Loss and mutation at the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) gene at 3p25 probably occurs in most RCCs and, since the VHL gene was recently cloned, data on VHL involvement in RCCs is accumulating. However, the region 3p14-p12, a region that contains the familial RCC-associated t(3;8)(p14.2;q24) chromosome translocation and the small cell lung carcinoma-associated homozygous deletion at 3p13-12, has also been reported to exhibit allele loss in a large fraction of RCCs. In order to focus future studies on potential suppressor genes in the 3p14-p12 region, we have studied allele loss in 30 RCCs with 9 polymorphic simple sequence repeat markers spanning 3p21.1-p12. Partial losses in the 3p21-p12 region were observed, allowing determination of common regions of loss of heterozygosity overlap in 15 RCCs. Results suggested that most RCCs exhibit loss in a region which brackets the t(3;8) familial chromosome translocation at 3p14.2, and some show additional deletions within the U2020 small cell lung carcinoma deletion at 3p12.

Abstract
As part of an ongoing series of dynamic Monte Carlo simulations of globular protein folding, the nature of the folding pathway, of model four-member beta-barrels and four-helix bundles, under highly idealized conditions in vivo, has been examined. The ribosome is crudely modeled as an inert hard wall on to which the model protein chain is attached. Three cases are considered in detail. The first corresponds to post-translational assembly in which the fully synthesized chain is tethered to the wall and starts out under strongly denaturing conditions. The system is cooled down, and the chain is allowed to fold. Interestingly, the helical motif prefers to assemble parallel to the wall, whereas the beta-barrel, predominantly assembles with its principal axis perpendicular to the wall. In the former case, the dominant intermediate, the helical hairpin, is different from that in free solution, a three-helix bundle. The wall acts to reduce the expanse of configuration space that must be searched and aids in folding. Two situations that might lead to co-translational folding are also simulated. In the first case, to eliminate wall effects, the chain is slowly synthesized in free solution, and in the second case, it is slowly synthesized from the wall. In all cases, the chains are observed to fold post-translationally. While partially folded intermediates are observed during synthesis, they lack the stability to survive until chain synthesis is complete. The implications of these results for the folding in vivo of real protein chains is discussed, and a model of multiple domain protein folding is proposed.

Abstract
Dynamic Monte Carlo simulations of the folding pathways of alpha-helical protein motifs have been undertaken in the context of a diamond lattice model of globular proteins. The first question addressed in the nature of the assembly process of an alpha-helical hairpin. While the hairpin could, in principle, be formed via the diffusion-collision-adhesion of isolated performed helices, this is not the dominant mechanism of assembly found in the simulations. Rather, the helices that form native hairpins are constructed on-site, with folding initiating at or near the turn in almost all cases. Next, the folding/unfolding pathways of four-helix bundles having tight bends and one and two long loops in the native state are explored. Once again, an on-site construction mechanism of folding obtains, with a hairpin forming first, followed by the formation of a three-helix bundle, and finally the fourth helix of the native bundle assembles. Unfolding is essentially the reverse of folding. A simplified analytic theory is developed that reproduces the equilibrium folding transitions obtained from the simulations remarkably well and, for the dominant folding pathway, correctly identifies the intermediates seen in the simulations. The analytic theory provides the free energy along the reaction co-ordinate and identifies the transition state for all three motifs as being quite close to the native state, with three of the four helices assembled, and approximately one turn of the fourth helix in place. The transition state is separated from the native conformation by a free-energy barrier of mainly energetic origin and from the denatured state by a barrier of mainly entropic origin. The general features of the folding pathway seen in all variants of the model four-helix bundles are similar to those observed in the folding of beta-barrel, Greek key proteins; this suggests that many of the qualitative aspects of folding are invariant to the particular native state topology and secondary structure.

Abstract
Secretory heterohybrid clones from seven pristine human B cell lymphomas of diverse histologic types were established to investigate the question of tumor clonal diversity. We found that in six tumors, heterohybrid-derived Ig showed similar band patterns in IEF; families of anti-Id prepared from tumor Ig reacted uniformly with individual heterohybrids and original tumor; and the V gene loci displayed little variation on Southern analysis. In one patient who was followed with serial multiple site biopsies over a 14-mo period, clonal Id was preserved until the final stage of his disease, in spite of cytotoxic treatment. In a single follicular tumor (J.M.), each of the anti-Id reacted uniformly with the parent tumor and the individual heterohybrids, except that three of six clones failed to react with a single anti-Id family member. A Southern analysis of the VH gene locus revealed an identical gene rearrangement that was shared by the parent tumor and each heterohybrid. However, there was considerable heterogeneity of J.M. heterohybrid Ig in IEF gels, and we demonstrated the production of variant lambda L chains by the heterohybrid clones. One type of lambda L chain had a normal mobility in SDS-PAGE gels but larger lambda variants were produced by four of six heterohybrids. A Southern analysis of the VL gene displayed considerable variation in the type of lambda rearrangement present in the various heterohybrids, suggesting extensive diversity at the VL gene locus. In a second tumor (S.C.) that exhibited uniform anti-Id tumor reactivity we were also able to demonstrate the presence of a second minor tumor cell population (a biclonal tumor). Our data suggest that intraclonal VH variation may vary considerably with lymphoma subtype and mutagenic exposure and that an additional mechanism for generating spontaneous intraclonal heterogeneity is genetic variation at the VL locus.

Abstract
We have previously demonstrated the existence of two distinct isoforms of spectrin in mammalian brain (23). Brain spectrin(240/235) is found primarily in neuronal axons and presynaptic terminals, and brain spectrin(240/235E) is located in neuronal cell bodies, dendrites and postsynaptic terminals, and oligodendrocytes. These isoforms are thought to play important roles in controlling the early events of synaptic transmission, axonal transport of organelles and vesicles, and lateral mobility of integral membrane proteins. In this study, we have utilized a panel of monoclonal antibodies to identify a novel astrocyte specific isoform(240/235A) with subunits of 240 kDa and 235 kDa in a 1:1 ratio. Double label indirect immunofluorescence has indicated that brain spectrin (240/235A) is distinct from brain spectrin (240/235E). This novel isoform located in the soma and processes of astrocytes may play a role in actin-membrane attachment, cellular architecture, strengthening of the membrane fabric, and translocation of cytoplasmic organelles and vesicles.

Abstract
The nature of the equilibrium conformational transition from the denatured state to a four-member alpha-helical bundle was studied employing a dynamic Monte Carlo algorithm in which the model protein chain was confined to a tetrahedral lattice. The model chain was allowed to hunt over all phase space, the target native state was not assumed a priori, and no site-specific interactions were introduced. The exterior vs the interior part of the protein is distinguished by the pattern of hydrophilic and hydrophobic interactions encoded into the primary sequence. The importance of a statistical preference for forming bends, as a function of bend location in the primary sequence, and helical wheel type cooperative interactions were examined, and the necessary conditions for collapse of the chain to the unique native structure were investigated. It was found that an amphipathic pattern of hydrophobic/hydrophilic interactions along with a statistical preference of the central residues for bend formation are sufficient to obtain the four-helix bundle. The transition to the native state has an all-or-none character.

Abstract
To help elucidate the general rules of globular protein folding, computer simulations of the conformational transition in model proteins having the left-handed, four-helix bundle motif in which the helices are joined by one or two long loops, as in apoferritin and somatotropin, respectively, have been undertaken. In the context of simple tetrahedral lattice protein models, these unique native helix bundle motifs can be obtained by a set of interactions similar to those found in previous simulations of the folding of four-member alpha-helical bundles with tight bends and beta-barrel proteins including the Greek key motif. The essential features sufficient to produce the four-helix bundle motif with long loops are as follows: (i) a general pattern of hydrophobic and hydrophilic type residues which differentiate the interior from the exterior of the molecule; (ii) the existence of hydrophilic regions in the amino acid sequence that, on the basis of short-range interactions, are indifferent to loop formation but that interact favorably with all the exterior residues of the helix bundle. Thus, these simulations indicate that, to reproduce all varieties of the left-handed four-helix bundle motif, site-specific interactions are not required.

Abstract
The pudendal nerve was examined in 100 cadavers of both sexes. Because of the variable number of trunks of the pudendal nerve, 5 types were distinguished: one-trunked; two-trunked, rectopudendal; two-trunked, pudendo-penile (or -clitoridal); three-trunked, recto-perineo-penile (or -clitoridal); four-trunked, recto-perineo-perineopenile (or -clitoridal). The authors' suggestions make it possible to perform selective pudendectomy, consisting in denervation of the sphincter urethrae muscle by neurectomy of the perineal branches of the pudendal nerve.

Abstract
Surgery of acromioclavicular luxations and lateral fractures of the clavicula with the Balser plate is described as a reliable low-complication method on the basis of the authors' own experiences in 13 patients. This treatment method offers significant advantages over the other conventional methods of surgery. Early mobilization of the patients is possible if exercise stability is present. Costly and complicated immobilization can be omitted, and so can reconstruction of the coracoclavicular ligaments or syndesmoplasty. The period of disability is shortened.

Abstract
The study based on the dissection of 79 specimens of bulbo-urethral glands describes their arterial vascularisation. 1. The glands receive their main arterial vascularization from the artery of the bulb of the penis. The vessel reaches the surface of the gland from above and from both sides. 2. Supplementary sources of vascularization may take their origin from the int. pudendal artery, urethral art., perineal art., or an anastomosis between the cystic inferior art. and the pudendal int. artery. 3. The artery of the bulb of penis is variable. It may divide into two (often) or three (seldom) branches penetrating the bulb of the penis. One case with two arteries of the bulb (both from the pudendal int. artery), has been described. 4. The glandular arterioles ("short or intraglandular" ones) take their origine inside the gland (type I) or exist as supplementary arteries ("long or extracapsular" ones) branches from near arterial truncs (type II). If the gland is placed in the musculature of the uro-genital diaphragm and it is well separated from it by a connective-tissue capsule, the capsule receives its own ("capsular") branches, which are a supplementary source of vascularization for the gland (type III). 5. The existence of "long or extracapsular" branches is in connection with lobation of the gland. Every lobule receives its own branch from an "extracapsular" artery. 6. Only one slight right-left assymetry was observed.

Abstract
In cases of thrombotic cerebral infarction the leucergic and thrombergic tests were done on the 2nd and 3d days of the disease and after 48 hours from the first dextran loading. Fleck's test tube method was used in the leucergy test. The proportion of agglutinated platelets was calculated from a smear stained by Papanicolau method. The results were processed statistically. An inhibitory effect of dextran on aggregation of white blood cells and platelets was observed in the blood of patients with cerebral infarction. The inhibitory effects of dextran was greater in relation to aggregation of platelets than white blood cells. However, in our investigations the effect of this agent on both processes was transient.
