Piao MY, Kim HJ, Seo JK, Park TS, Yoon JS, Kim KH, Ha JK. Effects of synchronization of carbohydrate and protein supply in total mixed ration with korean rice wine residue on ruminal fermentation, nitrogen metabolism and microbial protein synthesis in holstein steers. ASIAN-AUSTRALASIAN JOURNAL OF ANIMAL SCIENCES 2012; 25:1568-74. [PMID: 25049518 PMCID: PMC4093039 DOI: 10.5713/ajas.2012.12379] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2012] [Revised: 09/17/2012] [Accepted: 09/11/2012] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Three Holstein steers in the growing phase, each with a ruminal cannula, were used to test the hypothesis that the synchronization of the hourly rate of carbohydrate and nitrogen (N) released in the rumen would increase the amount of retained nitrogen for growth and thus improve the efficiency of microbial protein synthesis (EMPS). In Experiment 1, in situ degradability coefficients of carbohydrate and N in feeds including Korean rice wine residue (RWR) were determined. In Experiment 2, three total mixed ration (TMR) diets having different rates of carbohydrate and N release in the rumen were formulated using the in situ degradability of the feeds. All diets were made to contain similar contents of crude protein (CP) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) but varied in their hourly pattern of nutrient release. The synchrony index of the three TMRs was 0.51 (LS), 0.77 (MS) and 0.95 (HS), respectively. The diets were fed at a restricted level (2% of the animal’s body weight) in a 3×3 Latin-square design. Synchronizing the hourly supply of energy and N in the rumen did not significantly alter the digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, NDF or acid detergent fiber (ADF) (p>0.05). The ruminal NH3-N content of the LS group at three hours after feeding was significantly higher (p<0.05) than that of the other groups; however, the mean values of ruminal NH3-N, pH and VFA concentration among the three groups were not significantly different (p>0.05). In addition, the purine derivative (PD) excretion in urine and microbial-N production (MN) among the three groups were not significantly different (p>0.05). In conclusion, synchronizing dietary energy and N supply to the rumen did not have a major effect on nutrient digestion or microbial protein synthesis (MPS) in Holstein steers.

Abstract
Indigo carmine is a blue dye that is widely applied to localise ureteral orifices. It is generally believed to be a safe, biologically inert substance, and hypotensive reactions are extremely rare. However, we experienced three cases of indigo carmine-induced hypotension within a period of two weeks.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are capable of self-renewal and differentiating morphologically and functionally into several mesenchymal tissues. There have been contrasting data on whether MSCs are altered in various hematologic disorders. METHODS We isolated bone marrow (BM)-derived MSCs from a patient with thalassemia syndrome to compare phenotypic and functional characteristics to those from normal healthy donor. RESULTS No differences were observed between MSCs from thalassemia syndrome (T-MSCs) and those from normal healthy donor in terms of morphology, phenotype, karyotype, multidifferentiation capacity. In mixed lymphocyte reaction, T-MSCs strongly inhibited the proliferation of allogeneic T cells in association with reduced proportion of CD3(+), CD4(+), and CD8(+) cells. Furthermore, the fraction of Treg cells was increased under the culture with T-MSCs, suggesting that T-MSCs exert normal immunomodulatory function. In addition, T-MSCs expressed hematopoietic cytokines and supported hematopoiesis, which was comparable to those from normal BM-derived MSCs. CONCLUSION T-MSCs exhibited normal phenotype, karyotype as well as normal immunomodulatory function, and autologous MSCs from patients with thalassemia syndrome may be an attractive source of stem cell in terms of hematopoietic support as well as immunomodulatory activity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The incidence of peroneal neuropathy (PN), occurring predominantly in the left leg, increases after the incorporation of intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices among adult liver transplantation (OLT) recipients in our hospital. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible risk factors for PN and the reason for the left-leg predominance. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 501 OLT recipients. The patients were first divided into 2 groups, PN (n = 33) and non-PN (n = 468), to assess possible risk factors. The patients were then categorized into IPC (n = 262) and non-IPC (n = 239) groups according to the use of IPC devices. In a subsequent prospective study, we measured the degree and duration of the tilt of the operating table during OLT to investigate their relationship to the predominant left-leg PN. RESULTS The rate of IPC device use was significantly greater among the PN than non-PN group (78.8% vs 50.4%, P < .01). The incidence of PN was significantly higher among the IPC than non-IPC group (9.9% vs 2.9%, P < .01). The degree and duration of left tilt of the operating table were greater and longer than the right tilt. CONCLUSIONS The use of IPC devices during OLT increased the occurrence of PN and the left tilt of the operating table was strongly related to the predominant left-leg PN. Careful protection of the vulnerable point and minimization of the tilting of the operating table is advised during OLT, especially when IPC devices are used.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mutations in the SLC26A4 gene are responsible for Pendred syndrome and non-syndromic hearing loss (DFNB4). This study analysed non-synonymous SLC26A4 mutations newly identified in East Asians, as well as three common mutations in Caucasians, to characterise their molecular pathogenic mechanisms and to explore the possibility of rescuing their processing defects. METHODS A total of 11 non-synonymous disease associated mutations were generated and their effects on protein processing and on ion transporting activities were examined. RESULTS Most of the mutations caused retention of the SLC26A4 gene product (pendrin) in the intracellular region, while wild-type pendrin reached the plasma membrane. Accordingly, these mutations abolished complex glycosylation and Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchange activities of pendrin. However, significant heterogeneity in the processing of mutant pendrin molecules was observed. Each mutant protein exhibited a different cellular localisation, a different degree of N-glycosylation, and a different degree of sensitivity to the treatments that rescue processing defects. For example, H723R-pendrin, the most common mutation in East Asians, was mostly expressed in endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and its defects in protein processing and ion transporting activities were restored considerably by low temperature incubation. On the other hand, L236P-pendrin, the most common mutation in Caucasians, was mainly in the centrosomal region and was temperature insensitive. CONCLUSION These results indicate that the processing of pendrin mutant protein is determined by mutant specific mechanisms, and that a mutant specific method would be required to rescue the conformational defects of each folding mutant.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD), defined as a neurodegenerative disorder, is characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons and the presence of Lewy bodies in neurons. Morphological study of Lewy bodies is important to identify the causes and the processes of PD. Here, we investigate a possibility of phase contrast radiography using coherent synchrotron X-rays to explore the microscopic details of Lewy bodies in thick (approximately 3 mm) midbrain tissues. Autopsied midbrain tissues of a PD patient were sliced in 3 mm thickness and then examined using synchrotron X-rays from the 7B2 beamline of the Pohang Light Source. Refraction-enhanced phase contrast radiography and microtomography were adopted to identify dark core and dim edge of Lewy bodies in neurons. The morphology of Lewy bodies was clearly revealed by the phase contrast radiography in very thick (3 mm) midbrain tissues without any staining treatment. Three-dimensional volume rendered microtomography of the autopsied midbrain tissues demonstrates striking evidence that several Lewy bodies are agglomerated by dim edges in a neuron. We suggest that the phase contrast radiography could be a useful tool to morphologically investigate the causes or the processes in PD.

Abstract
AIM The effects of cold exposure on gene and protein expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), in heart and skeletal muscles, were studied in male adult Wistar rats. METHODS Cold immersion was accomplished by submerging the rats in shoulder-deep water maintained at approximately 18 degrees C, either acutely (1 h) or chronically (1 h day(-1), 5 days week(-1) for 20 weeks). The expressions of VEGF mRNA and protein in heart, gastrocnemius, and soleus muscles were examined by Northern and Western blotting and competitive-polymerase chain reaction techniques. RESULTS The expressions of VEGF mRNA and protein were markedly increased in cardiac muscle of the cold-immersed group, particularly in the 1-hour exposure group, whereas VEGF mRNA and protein in gastrocnemius were decreased significantly after an acute exposure. Although the protein level in gastrocnemius remained low in the chronically exposed group, the expression of mRNA of VEGF(165) with chronic exposure in this group returned to the control level and that of VEGF(206) was 15% greater than that in controls. The expression of mRNA for VEGF(165) in soleus was also lowered by acute cold exposure, although that for VEGF(206) was stable. However, VEGF protein was increased by 50%. After 20 weeks, all of these parameters were increased over the levels found in the controls. CONCLUSION These results suggest that the VEGF gene may be a major regulatory factor in cardiac and skeletal muscle adaptation to the cold environment stimulating angiogenesis and thermogenesis.

Abstract
The CYP2D6 gene codes for human cytochrome P450 2D6 enzyme, which is responsible for the metabolism of many psychiatric drugs. In schizophrenic patients treated with neuroleptics, decreased or loss of function CYP2D6 alleles may contribute to the development of tardive dyskinesia (TD), a movement disorder that frequently occurs with chronic neuroleptic treatment. The goal of this study was to determine whether the occurrence of TD is associated with CYP2D6 genotype in a cohort of Korean schizophrenics by employing a CYP450 GeneChip((R)) oligonucleotide microarray and PCR assays to screen for 19 CYP2D6 alleles. Our results revealed that males with at least one decreased or loss of function allele have a moderately greater chance of developing TD than males with only wild-type alleles. Female schizophrenics did not have a significantly greater chance of developing TD. Our results demonstrate the utility of CYP2D6 microarrays to assess genotype status in this Korean cohort.

Abstract
Vinorelbine seems to cause less neurotoxicity than other vinca alkaloids because of its selective activity on mitotic cells over axonal microtubules. Clinical trials report very mild peripheral neurotoxicity with distal paresthesiae and there are no reports of myelopathy in these series of patients. The authors describe a patient who developed a rare event of myelopathy while on vinorelbine for non-small-cell lung cancer.

Abstract
Directed evolution can be a powerful tool to predict antibiotic resistance. Resistance involves the accumulation of mutations beneficial to the pathogen while maintaining residue interactions and core packing that are critical for preserving function. The constraint of maintaining stability, while increasing activity, drastically reduces the number of possible mutational combination pathways. To test this theory, TEM-1 beta-lactamase was evolved using a hypermutator E. coli-based directed evolution technique with cefotaxime selection. The selected mutants were compared to two previous directed evolution studies and a database of clinical isolates. In all cases, evolution resulted in the generation of the E104K/M182T/G238S combination of mutations ( approximately 500-fold increased resistance), which is equivalent to clinical isolate TEM-52. The structure of TEM-52 was determined to 2.4 A. G238S widens access to the active site by 2.8 A whereas E104K stabilizes the reorganized topology. The M182T mutation is located 17 A from the active site and appears to be a global suppressor mutation that acts to stabilize the new enzyme structure. Our results demonstrate that directed evolution coupled with structural analysis can be used to predict future mutations that lead to increased antibiotic resistance.

Abstract
Toxicity of products from polyester hydrolysis such as succinic acid (SA), adipic acid (AA), mandelic acid (MA), terephthalic acid (TA), 1,4-butanediol (1,4-B), ethylene glycol (EG), styrene glycol (SG) and 1,4-cyclohexane dimethanol (1,4-C) was evaluated by phytotoxicity test on germination of young radish seeds and by cytotoxicity test on HeLa cells. The phytotoxicity test revealed SG > MA > 1,4-C > AA approximately SA > TA approximately EG > 1,4-B in order of decreasing toxicity taking into consideration the growth behavior after germination as well as the percentage of germination. Toxicity on HeLa cells decreased in slightly different order compared to that on young radish seeds, i.e. SG > 1,4-C > MA > TA > SA > AA > EG > 1,4-B. Tests for the phytotoxicity and for cytotoxicity indicated that the aromatic compounds were more harmful than the aliphatic ones. Each group of 4 strains which grew most rapidly on each agar plate containing SA, AA, MA, TA, 1,4-B, EG, SG and 1,4-C respectively as a sole carbon source was identified by the fatty acid methyl esters analysis. The modified Sturm test was carried out using the single isolated strain, an activated sludge or a mixed soil to measure the rate of mineralization of the compounds into carbon dioxide. The aliphatic compounds were mineralized more easily than the aromatic compounds. 1,4-C showed the most exceptionally slow degradation. A scrutiny of residual 1,4-C after degradation is required before polyesters containing 1,4-C could be classified into compostable because 1,4-C has detrimental effects on young radish seeds and HeLa cells and has a tendency to accumulate in the environment due to its slow degradability.

Abstract
Hidroacanthoma simplex is a benign tumor of the skin originating from or showing differentiation to the sweat glands. It grossly resembles seborrheic keratosis of Bowen's disease and histologically shows intraepidermal focal growth of epithelial cells. Malignant transformation of this tumor is rare. We report a case of pigmented hidroacanthoma with malignant transformation in a 67-year-old woman. There was a 20-year history of a skin lesion on the right thigh, which first appeared as a small verrucous papule, progressed to a dark-brown colored patch, and then to a pigmented plaque. Histologically, the primary tumor was composed of small squamoid cells with marked cellular atypia. Most of the tumor cells were located in the epidermis. Immunohistochemically, the cytoplasm of some tumor cells showed a positive reaction for epithelial membrane antigen, but not for either carcino-embryonic antigen or the S-100 protein.

Abstract
A rare case of Behcet's disease associated with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is described. A 50-year-old Korean female suffering recurrent oral ulcer, genital ulcer, fatigue, arthralgia in both knees and fever was diagnosed as Behcet's disease. The findings of bone marrow aspirates were consistent with refractory anemia, a subtype of myelodysplastic syndrome. Chromosomal analysis of bone marrow cells revealed 46,XX,-8,-20,+der(8)t(8;20)(p23;p10),+der(8) t(8;20)(p23;q10)[30]. The chromosomal changes found in this patient were different from those of previous reports, which mostly revealed trisomy 8. If anemia, low reticulocyte count and dyspoietic cells are sustained in Behcet's disease, physicians should be alert to the possibility of MDS with aberration in chromosome 8 and perform a bone marrow study for the proper diagnosis and treatment of the disease. We presented a case of Behcet's disease associated with MDS, which is the first Korean case.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES To compare the incidence of gastroesophageal reflux and regurgitation associated with laryngeal mask airway (LMA) removal when signs of rejecting the LMA, such as swallowing, struggling, and restlessness, were observed and when the patient could open his or her mouth on command. DESIGN Randomized clinical trial. SETTING Operating room and recovery room of a tertiary care referral hospital. PATIENTS 63 ASA physical status I and II adult patients scheduled for elective orthopedic surgery. INTERVENTIONS Using a standardized general anesthetic technique, patients were allocated randomly to Group A (n = 34; LMA removed when signs of rejection, such as swallowing, struggling, and restlessness, were observed) or Group B (n = 29; LMA removed when the patient could open his or her mouth on command). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS To detect gastroesophageal reflux throughout anesthesia, a pH monitoring probe was positioned in the lower esophagus on the day before surgery. To assess regurgitation during emergence, a gelatin capsule of methylene blue (50 mg) was swallowed prior to induction. At the end of anesthesia, episodes of reflux and regurgitation of gastric contents were analyzed/determined by pH below 4 and bluish staining of the pharynx and/or LMA, respectively. Physical events such as bucking, straining, and coughing during the arousal phase were recorded in both groups by an independent observer. The incidence of reflux (pH < 4) from the time of the appearance of rejection signs to LMA removal and the total incidence of reflux in Group B were significantly higher than in Group A (p < 0.05). Staining of the LMA and the pharynx by methylene blue was not observed in patients from either experimental group. The number of physical events in Group B during the arousal phase was significantly increased compared to Group A (p < 0.05). Considering all patients in Group A and Group B, physical events were associated with the occurrence of reflux (p < 0.05). Desaturation (SpO2 < 95%) and clinical evidence of aspiration of gastric contents did not occur in either group. CONCLUSION Maintenance of the LMA until the patient can open his or her mouth on command increases the incidence of gastroesophageal reflux.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the incidence of, visual loss from, and perioperative risk factors for suprachoroidal hemorrhage (SCH) occurring during or after glaucoma filtering surgery. METHODS Contact B-Scan ultrasonography was used to evaluate at a median of 15 days postoperatively, one eye of 158 patients who underwent various glaucoma filtering procedures during an 18 month period. RESULTS Ultrasonography detected SCH in 13 patients (8.2%). SCH was recognized during surgery in two cases; 11 were detected postoperatively. Preexisting aphakia (odds ratio 12.9, 95% confidence interval 3.6 to 46.2) and intraoperative anterior vitrectomy (odds ratio 5.2, 95% confidence interval 1.2 to 22.4) were significantly associated with SCH. A significant negative association was found for combined cataract/glaucoma procedures with posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation (odds ratio 0.08, 95% confidence interval 0.01 to 0.69). No significant association between SCH and age, sex, race, diabetes, obesity, systemic hypertension, right versus left eye, type of glaucoma, surgeon, number of preoperative antiglaucoma medications, 5-fluorouracil/mitomycin-C therapy-or previous vitrectomy was found. For some risk factors the power of the study may not be sufficient to establish a correlation: with SCH. Two patients with SCH had serious visual acuity loss and 2 had mild visual acuity loss. Eyes of three patients were surgically drained of SCH. Most patients with SCH did not experience pain, and only one presented-with elevated intraocular pressure at the time SCH was recognized. CONCLUSION Pre-existing aphakia and concurrent vitrectomy were significant risk factors identified. Combined cataract and glaucoma filtering procedures correlated negatively with suprachoroidal hemorrhage. Most patients with suprachoroidal hemorrhage experienced little or no visual loss, pain, or intraocular pressure elevation.

The effects of exercise training on riboflavin requirements and of riboflavin intake on endurance were examined in 14 women, 50-67 y of age, who participated in a 10-wk, two-period crossover exercise study at two riboflavin intakes, 0.15 micrograms/kJ (0.6 micrograms/kcal) and 0.22 micrograms/kJ (0.9 micrograms/kcal). Subjects exercised 20-25 min/d, 6 d/wk, for 4-wk periods on a cycle ergometer at 75-85% of their maximal heart rate. Riboflavin status was assessed by measuring the erythrocyte glutathione reductase activity coefficient (EGRAC) and urinary riboflavin excretion. Physical performance was evaluated by using a walking treadmill test to determine maximal oxygen capacity (VO2max) and anaerobic threshold by gas exchange (ATGE). Exercise significantly affected riboflavin status as EGRAC increased (P less than 0.001) and riboflavin excretion decreased (P less than 0.01) in both groups. VO2max increased significantly with exercise (P less than 0.01). However, changes in VO2max (L/min) and ATGE with exercise training were not different in the two groups. Riboflavin requirements of older women increased with exercise training, but increased riboflavin intake did not enhance improvements in endurance.

Abstract
Results from Drosophila mutagenicity tests of 45 chemical compounds assayed for the National Toxicology Program are presented. Nine compounds were judged positive and four equivocal in the sex-linked recessive lethal test. The nine positive compounds were acetin, allyl glycidyl ether, cyclophosphamide, 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane, 2,3-dibromo-1-propanol, dimethylcarbamyl chloride, 1,2-epoxy-butane, lasiocarpine, and N-nitrosopiperidine. The results for chloral hydrate, maleic hydrazide, propantheline bromide, and trifluralin were equivocal. Of the nine compounds positive in recessive lethal induction, only two--allyl glycidyl ether and dimethylcarbamyl chloride--failed to induce translocations. The remaining 32 were judged to be nonmutagenic under the conditions used.
