Abstract
Most of the cardioprotective effects of long-chain omega 3 fatty acids, namely docosahexaenoic (DHA; 22:6n-3) and eicosapentaenoic (EPA; 20:5n-3), are due to their hypotriglyceridemic and anti-inflammatory effects, which lower the risk for cardiovascular disease and myocardial infarction. Little is known on the direct preventive activities of DHA and EPA on heart function. In isolated hearts, we studied (1) whether infused DHA is able to protect the heart from ischemia/reperfusion damage and (2) the role played by Notch-mediated signal transduction pathways in myocardial infarction. Perfusion with DHA before and before/after induction of ischemia reperfusion significantly diminished cardiac damage and afforded antioxidant protection. Mechanistically, infusion of DHA before and before/after the induction of ischemia differentially modulated the expression of Notch2 and 3 target genes. In particular, DHA increased the expression of Hey1 when infused pre- and pre/post-ischemia; Jagged 1 and the Notch2 receptors increased with DHA pre-ischemia, but not pre/post; Notch2 and 3 receptors as well as Delta increased following DHA administration pre- and (especially) pre/post-ischemia. In conclusion, while the precise nature of the Notch-mediated protection from ischemia/reperfusion afforded by DHA is as yet to be fully elucidated, our data add to the growing body of literature that indicates how systemic administration of DHA provides cardiovascular protection.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Conflicting findings raise questions about the role of adiponectin in osteoarthritis (OA). The current study aimed to investigate in OA patients the association between the production of adiponectin and the grade of cartilage destruction, and to provide functional evidence for a potential role of adiponectin in OA. DESIGN The expression of adiponectin was examined by immunohistochemistry in cartilage obtained from healthy individuals (n = 2; ages 56 and 41 years; 1 male and 1 female) and OA patients (n = 11; ages 64-79 years; 2 male and 9 female). The association between its production in chondrocytes and the grade of cartilage destruction was established on full-depth cartilage biopsies. The functional activity of adiponectin in OA cartilage was determined from the relation between the expression of adiponectin, its receptor, cartilage-specific components and factors involved in matrix degradation, and from the chondrocyte response to the full-length or the globular form of adiponectin. RESULTS Adiponectin was not detected in healthy cartilage. Conversely, the adipokine was up-regulated in damaged tissue, but no strong association with the grade of cartilage destruction was found. We showed a positive correlation between adiponectin and mPGES or MMP-13 while AdipoR1 was related to the expression of type 2 collagen, aggrecan and Sox9. The full-length form of adiponectin but not the globular isoform, stimulated the production of PGE2 and MMP-13 activity in cultured human chondrocytes. CONCLUSIONS The elevated level of adiponectin found in chondrocytes from OA patients might contribute to matrix remodelling during OA, the full-length isoform being the single active form.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate materials are widely used as bone substitutes because of their properties close to those of the mineral phase of bones. Nevertheless, after several months, calcium phosphate-based materials release particles that may be phagocytosed by monocytes, leading to an inflammatory reaction. Strontium is well known to counteract the osteoporosis process, but little is known about its effect on inflammatory processes. The purpose of this work was to study the effect of biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) particles substituted with strontium on the inflammatory reaction. Human primary monocytes stimulated or not by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were exposed to BCP particles containing strontium for 6 and 24 h. Inflammatory mediators (cytokines and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)) production was then quantified by ELISA and zymography. We observed that the presence of strontium had few effects on unstimulated cells, but it decreased the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and the chemokine interleukin 8 in LPS-stimulated cell-conditioned medium. This work suggests for the first time that strontium may be involved in the control of inflammatory processes following BCP phagocytosis by human monocytes.

Abstract
Calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite (Ca-def-HAP) thin films were elaborated on Ti6Al4V substrates by electrodeposition. The coatings exhibit two different morphologies and crystallinities. Human osteoblast-like cells (MG-63) were cultured on the surfaces of these materials; the cell content and viability were evaluated up to 28 days. The scanning electron microscopy and biological investigations showed cells with a normal morphology, good proliferation, and viability from 7 to 21 days. But after 28 days, the number of live cells decreases in both cases; however, this decrease is less important in the case of calcium phosphate (CaP) coating surface when compared with the control (cell culture plastic). The cells cultured on Ca-def-HAP coating exhibit more cellular extensions and extracellular matrix. RT-PCR for type I collagen, alkaline phosphatase, and osteocalcin studies were also carried out, and was found that the CaP enhances gene expression of ALP and OC and thus the differentiation of osteoblast-like cells. Moreover, this study shows that the difference in the morphology of CaP coatings has no effect on the biocompatibility.

Abstract
The only known bulk ambient pressure nickel nitride phase is hexagonal Ni(3)N (space group P6(3)22). Multianvil synthesis experiments at 20 GPa and 2000 K using nickel (Ni) and sodium azide (NaN(3)) starting materials, and ex situ analysis using transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy measurements show that this phase can be recovered at ambient pressure (space group P6(3)22, a = 4.62 Å, c = 4.30 Å, Z = 2). Formation of this phase is correlated with the repulsive interactions between closely spaced nitrogen ions and with the extent of thermal stability of nickel nitride at ambient and at high densities. These two factors are also important in relating the high temperature and pressure behaviour of nickel nitride to those of several other interstitial nitrides recovered from similar pressures after heating. Further, we report formation of a sodium rhenium nitride phase by reaction of the azide with the rhenium capsule in which the reactants were contained.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the distribution of leptin, adiponectin and resistin between paired serum and synovial fluid (SF) samples of patients with osteoarthritis (OA) and to determine the potential sources of these adipokines in the joint. The active free form of leptin was also examined by evaluating the level of the soluble leptin receptor (sOb-R). METHODS Levels of adipokines and sOb-R were measured by a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in serum and SF collected from OA patients. The levels of adipokines were also determined in conditioned media from cultured joint tissues (synovium, infrapatellar fat pad, meniscus, osteophyte, cartilage and bone). RESULTS The adipokines exhibited different patterns of distribution between the joint and the circulating compartment. Serum levels of resistin and adiponectin exceeded those in the paired SF. Conversely, leptin SF concentrations were similar or higher than those measured in serum counterparts. Leptin and adiponectin in SF may derive from each joint tissue examined, whereas resistin was not detected in conditioned media of cultured explants. Synovium and infrapatellar fat pad were the major sources of adipokines, but osteophytes released also large amounts of leptin. The sOb-R deficiency found in SF further increased the difference in the bioactive leptin levels between serum and SF. A gender-specific difference was observed with women exhibiting the highest level of free leptin in the joint. CONCLUSION These data demonstrated that adipokines serum levels are not predictive values for SF determination. The joint cavity is a special space where each adipokine undergoes specific regulatory pathways, strengthening the hypothesis that adipokines may have local effects in the joint and may account for the high prevalence of OA in women.

Abstract
Bacteremic pasteurellosis is an uncommon form of Pasteurella multocida infection, usually involved in local infections. This systemic infection often occurs in immuno-compromised patient such as cirrhotic or alcoholic patients, with a high mortality rate (up to 60%). Septic shock may occur and neurological disorders or coma are frequent. We report such a case. Treatment associated local care, antibiotics (beta-lactam antibiotics plus fluoroquinolone) during 14 days and resuscitation of septic shock. Owing these therapies, septic shock was successfully treated without complications.

Abstract
A Doehlert design was performed to study the effect of calcium and phosphate supplementation at 0 to 25 mmol/kg and 0 to 16 mmol/kg, respectively, on the rennet gelation of reconstituted skim milk subjected to pH-reversible CO(2) acidification. Supplemented reconstituted skim milk samples were acidified to pH 5.80 by the addition of CO(2) under pressure and depressurized under vacuum to restore the initial pH value. The second-order polynomial models satisfactorily predicted the effect of salt addition on the micellar molar Ca:P ratio and the average diameter of the casein micelles, whereas only trends were used in the analysis of the rennet-clotting behavior of salt-supplemented, CO(2)-treated milk. Whether added Ca was the most determinant factor on the micellar molar Ca:P ratio, added Pi (a mixture of Na(2)HPO(4) and NaH(2)PO(4)) was the most determinant factor on the other responses studied, and its effect was most pronounced when Ca was simultaneously added. By comparison with control samples, changes observed in this study were essentially due to salt supplementation and not to the CO(2) treatment. Therefore, this CO(2) treatment could be considered as an entirely reversible treatment rather than only pH-reversible, and predictions might be applied to untreated milk. In the case of Ca-supplemented milk, the micellar molar Ca:P ratio increased, the average micellar diameter decreased, and the rennet-clotting properties were improved, whereas opposite effects were observed upon Pi supplementation. Since modification of the micellar molar ratio is the result of change in the chemical composition of micellar calcium phosphate, the effect of calcium and phosphate supplementation on the rennet clotting of milk was found to be also dependent on the nature of the interaction between caseins and colloidal calcium phosphate.

Abstract
This study aimed at measuring the medico-economic interest of a care management programme established for asthmatic patients in the Amiens region ("Action Asthma Amieris") by using and comparing different evaluation tools. Three tools were used in parallel: 1) a questionnaire for collecting information on healthcare received was completed monthly by 305 patients recruited by 73 physicians between November 1998 and January 1999; 2) data issued by the national insurance fund for the years 1998 and 1999, for those patients included after January 1999; and 3) data on all hospitalisations for 1998 and 1999 in the University Hospital Centre obtained from the French hospital information database (PMSI). Data from the national insurance fund and from the PMSI are essential to evaluate costs, since the patients' statements proved to under-estimate the amount of healthcare administered and received. Following the implementation of this asthma care management programme, an increase of pharmaceutical expenses and a decrease in the number of hospitalisations for asthmatic patients were observed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A multitude of cationic lipids have been synthesized since they were first proposed for use in gene therapy. Cationic lipids are able to efficiently transfect cells both in vitro and in vivo. Whereas most research groups have focused their investigations on the toxicity of these molecules, and on the location of expression of the DNA transferred by these vectors, little has been done to determine their biodistribution and elimination pathways. Our group has developed a family of cationic lipids termed phosphonolipids. Following a large in vitro screening experiment, we have selected several molecules for in vivo testing, with some of these phosphonolipids forming lipoplexes efficient in transfecting mouse lungs. It was thus of interest to study their fate after intravenous injection. METHODS The respective biodistributions of both the GLB43 phosphonolipid and plasmid DNA were investigated and compared with DNA expression sites. Using the optimal conditions determined for phosphonolipids, we followed the gene transfer agent and plasmid DNA distributions versus time by radiolabeling them with (14)C and (32)P, respectively. Otherwise, we performed imaging by radiolabeling plasmid DNA with (99m)Tc. RESULTS The lipoplexes appear to be directly located in the lung after administration. Secondly, the plasmid is released mainly into the lungs and the phosphonolipid vector is rapidly degraded. The hydrophilic moiety of the phosphonolipid is eliminated in the urine, as is the free plasmid. CONCLUSIONS This study reveals that there are slight differences in the observed results depending on the technique used to label the DNA; secondly, results show that the residence time of phosphonolipids in the mouse body is related to the DNA binding time.

Abstract
An experimental method based on the controlled chymosin-induced kappa-casein hydrolysis of milk was proposed to modify micellar reactivity. Milk samples with a degree of kappa-casein hydrolysis of 19, 35, and 51% were obtained. The physicochemical properties of partially converted casein micelles were determined. The net negative charge of casein micelles was reduced with increasing degree of kappa-casein hydrolysis and a small but significant decrease in hydrodynamic diameter and micellar hydration were noted. Dynamic low amplitude oscillatory rheology was used to monitor the rheological properties of acid milk gels (GDL) made with partially chymosin-hydrolyzed milks in comparison with those of strictly acid and rennet gels. An increase in the gelation pH value was observed with increasing the degree of kappa-casein hydrolysis. The moduli values (G' and G'') reached 2 h after the point of gel were, for all degrees of hydrolysis tested, significantly higher than those of strictly rennet and acid gels. Comparison of changes in delta G'/delta t with time indicated differences in gel formation that could be related to the increased values of G' obtained for acid gel made with chymosin-treated milk. At a given time after gelation (2 h), increasing the degree of kappa-casein hydrolysis in milk led also to an increase in the loss tangent and the serum holding capacity of acid milk gels suggesting a correlation between these two parameters.

Abstract
Response surface methodology was used to investigate the effect of salt supplementation on the micellar composition of reconstituted skim milk subjected to acidification by CO2 pressure to pH 5.8, followed by depressurization under vacuum. Using a Doehlert design, calcium and phosphate were added to skim milk in the range of 0 to 25 mmol/kg and 0 to 16 mmol/kg of milk, respectively, and the pH was adjusted to 6.65 +/- 0.02. After carbonation, the milk sample was depressurized, and the pH returned to its initial value without modification of the ionic strength. Micellar composition was assessed by the concentration of micellar Ca, P, Mg, and protein, and the buffering properties of milk. The second order polynomial models satisfactorily predicted the effect of salt supplementation on the micellar composition (R2adj > 0.75). Added calcium was the most determinant factor, and favored the removal of Ca, P, Mg, and proteins from the soluble phase to the micellar phase when this addition was less than 17.5 mmol/kg of milk. Above this concentration, only the concentration of micellar Ca increased. The buffering response surface showed that the amount of micellar calcium phosphate increased to a maximum upon addition of 17.5 mmol of Ca/kg. By comparison with a control sample (supplemented but untreated skim milk), changes were essentially due to salt supplementation and not to the CO2 treatment. We suggest that Ca formed micellar calcium phosphate when added at a concentration less than 17.5 mmol/kg; whereas above this concentration, Ca bound directly to micellar proteins.

Abstract
Gene transfer to the lung can be achieved via a systemic, that targets the endothelium, or local, that targets the epithelium, delivery route. In the present study, we followed the distribution of a plasmid after transfection using some of our phosphonolipids, which have previously shown their efficiency in transfecting mouse lungs. The plasmid was radiolabeled and varying combinations of plasmid/phosphonolipid were administered by intravenous injection, or by endotracheal spray. The distribution of radioactive labeling was observed over a time course using a gamma-camera. These images were then correlated with the results for luciferase expression levels in the lungs. In each case, lungs were well targeted. However, whereas an intravenous injection reaches all of the lung immediately, progressive diffusion occurs when the plasmid/phosphonolipid is administered via an aerosol. Elimination of the radioactivity associated with plasmid occurs via the urinary tract after intravenous injections, and via the feces using the aerosol delivery approach. The radioactivity detected in the lungs correlated strongly with transgene expression. Thus, such an imaging technique is a powerful strategy to predict the formulation that will generate the best transfection efficiency. This study reveals that scintigraphic imaging permits both validation of the administration method and the results obtained for each animal, thereby reducing the statistical variability of in vivo experiments.
