Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a cancer of plasma cells, characterized by profound suppression of host immune responses. Here we show that MM cell lines significantly suppress the proliferation, blasting, response to interleukin-2 (IL-2), and expression of CD25 by concanavalin A (Con A)-activated or allostimulated peripheral blood T lymphocytes. T cells arrest in the G1 stage of the cell cycle, and do not enter the IL-2 autocrine growth pathway. T cell inhibition was mediated by a soluble factor. MM cell lines did not produce IL-10 but did produce large amounts of transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1). T cells were assessed for their ability to respond to IL-2 when co-cultured with MM cells in the presence or absence of the TGF-beta inhibitor, TGF-beta latency-associated peptide (LAP). MM cells suppressed IL-2 responses but this inhibition was completely reversed by TGF-beta LAP. A CD25-, IL-2-dependent blast cell line was not inhibited by MM cells or rhTGF-beta, confirming the specificity of the inhibition mechanism for the IL-2 autocrine growth pathway. We conclude that MM cells suppress T cells in their entry into the autocrine IL-2/CD25 pathway and in response to IL-2, and that TGF-beta has a significant role to play.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) remains essentially incurable by conventional anti-tumour therapy. This has led to increased interest in the possibility that forms of immune therapy might be effective. The successful use of donor lymphocyte infusions (DLI) in a few cases of MM relapse following allogeneic bone marrow transplantation have added weight to this view. MM is characterized by several defects in the host's immune system. The influence of the malignant clone on the function of the immune effector cells results from both passive and active suppression. Despite an array of functional adhesion molecules and HLA class I and II molecules on their surface and the secretion of a tumour-specific peptide, they fail to express adequate levels of co-stimulatory molecules thus inducing anergy in potentially tumour-specific T cells. In addition to this passive evasion of immune regulation, MM tumour cells are capable of producing a number of immunologically active agents which can induce immunosuppression such as transforming growth factor-beta, Fas ligand (FasL), vascular endothelial growth factor and Muc-1. It is postulated that these agents may be produced by the tumour cell to influence the microenvironment to support growth and differentiation of the clone but may have the additional benefit of altering the function of the host immune effector cells and thus preventing tumour rejection. This duality of function is important if clinicians are to design immunotherapy strategies which will achieve the true potential and result in improved survival in MM.

Abstract
Theileria annulata-infected bovine cells as well as mitogen-stimulated bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) express a proliferation-associated nuclear protein equivalent to the human Ki-67 protein. In analogy to the human system, the expression of the bovine Ki-67 protein is restricted to proliferating cells only, since (a) Ki-67 expression paralleled [3H]-thymidine incorporation in concanavalin A (Con A)-stimulated bovine PBMC, (b) Ki-67 was not detectable in quiescent bovine cells, and (c) Ki-67 expression in Theileria-infected cells is related to the presence of the parasites within the cytoplasm of the host cells; upon treatment with the theilericidal drug buparvaquone the parasites are destroyed and the cells cease to proliferate and to express the Ki-67 protein. Western-blot analysis of lysates of proliferating bovine cells revealed that the prototype monoclonal antibody Ki-67 and the new equivalent antibody MIB-1 detected one prominent protein band with an apparent molecular weight of 430 kDa. Two cDNA clones (pUC18.B1.Ki-67 and pUC18.B2.Ki-67) were isolated from a lambdagt11 cDNA library of T. annulata-infected bovine cells by immunoscreening with the monoclonal antibody MIB-1. Comparison of these cDNA sequences with those of the human Ki-67 protein revealed 60-70% identity. Within the "Ki-67 motif", identity proved to be 80% at the amino acid level. The remarkable identity between bovine and human Ki-67 proteins suggests that MIB-1 can be used as a marker for cell proliferation in animal research. In this context we could identify proliferating cells in lymph nodes of Theileria-infected animals and, furthermore, we could distinguish between infected and uninfected proliferating cells using MIB-1 and an antiserum against a recombinant parasite protein designated SA288.

Abstract
For many years it was assumed that Theileria annulata resembled T. parva, parasitizing lymphocytes and causing lymphoproliferative disease, with the two species being controlled by similar protective immune responses. Patricia Preston et al. here review the evidence that has led to a different view of T. annulata. It is now thought that the schizonts of T. annulata inhabit macrophages and B cells, and that tropical theileriosis is not a lymphoproliferative disease. Both innate and adaptive responses contribute to recovery from infection and resistance to challenge and cytokines produced by infected and uninfected cells influence the outcome of infection. Partial protection has been stimulated recently by defined recombinant antigens; efficacy depended upon the delivery system.

Abstract
Despite advances in our knowledge of the pathogenesis and host immune response and efforts at prevention and treatment, S. pneumoniae continues to cause considerable disease and mortality. The currently available polysaccharide vaccines confer moderate protection in most adults and older children, but they are underutilized. There are an estimated 40,000 deaths per year among U.S. adults due to pneumococcus, of which nearly half might be prevented if the current recommendations for vaccination were followed. Future advances must include augmented efforts at coverage of older children and adults via improvements in education, delivery mechanisms and financing. The major advance in the field is the development of conjugate vaccines which appear safe, immunogenic and efficacious against invasive pneumoccocal disease in infants. The first conjugate vaccine is anticipated to be available for use in the U.S. in the year 2000.

Abstract
This study was designed to examine the effect of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) on various death pathways of mouse T cells. Unlike humans, mice produce their own ascorbic acid and our study tested the effect of additional ascorbic acid on murine T cells. Our data show that three T cell death pathways (growth factor withdrawal-, spontaneous-, and steroid-induced death) were inhibited when T cells were incubated with ascorbic acid. The data show that both activated and resting T cells were responsive to ascorbic acid since both populations were resistant to death stimuli when treated with ascorbic acid. Additionally, effector T cells were more likely to enter S phase if treated with ascorbic acid. Our data implicate ascorbic acid as a potent inhibitor of various forms of T cell death and suggest that vitamin C may function as an immune booster through this mechanism.

Abstract
Theileria annulata is a tick-borne protozoan parasite which causes the disease bovine tropical theileriosis. In immunized or drug-treated animals, the pathogenic macroschizont stage of the parasite is destroyed by MHC class I-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). Here we show that although CD8+ T cells increase greatly in number and display activation markers during an acute infection, they exhibit no killing of infected cells. During the ineffectual response, efferent lymph cells' ability to proliferate to IL-2 drops, coinciding with loss of MoAb binding to CD2 by CD8+ cells. When animals were treated with the anti-parasite drug 'Butalex', IL-2 responses, anti-CD2 antibody binding by CD8+ cells and strong CTL activity were restored within 24 h. The initial activation of CD4+ T cells by parasite-infected cells altering the IL-2 production in the draining lymph node is the likely cause of the failure of CTL responses.

Abstract
The object of these experiments was to study the pathogenesis and kinetics of Theileria annulata infection in the efferent lymph of the draining lymph nodes of calves. Efferent lymphatics of calves were cannulated prior to infection with T. annulata sporozoite or an allogeneic schizont cell line. Potentially lethal sporozoite challenge induced cell shut-down from days 4-6 and then a massive increase in output of blasting cells (both infected and non-infected) in the efferent lymph. The rate of lymph flow and total cell output increased to 5 to 10-fold from day 6 onwards. Sporozoites were never isolated from the efferent lymph. However, large numbers of parasite-infected cells were seen in efferent lymph from the sixth day of infection. The animals inoculated with an allogeneic T. annulata-infected cell line exhibited only a small increase in flow rate and cell output. Parasite-infected cells of recipient origin were seen in efferent lymph from day 11 onwards. However, cells of donor origin were never isolated either from efferent lymph or peripheral blood. Thus the parasite transferred from the inoculated donor cell line to the cells of the recipient before schizonts appeared in efferent lymph.

Buss's (1975) Self-Consciousness Scales (Study 2), and previously reported correlates and effects of private self-consciousness (PrSC; Studies 3 and 4). Results suggest that the PrSC scale confounds two unrelated, motivationally distinct dispositions--rumination and reflection--and that this confounding may account for the "self-absorption paradox" implicit in PrSC research findings: Higher PrSC scores are associated with more accurate and extensive self-knowledge yet higher levels of psychological distress. The potential of the FFM to provide a comprehensive framework for conceptualizing self-attentive dispositions, and to order and integrate research findings within this domain, is discussed.

Abstract
In this report we show that activation of APC with an agonist anti-CD40 mAb profoundly alters the behavior of CD4 T cells in vivo. Stimulation of mice with anti-CD40 2 days before, but not 1 day after, administration of superantigen (SAg) enhanced CD4 and CD8 T cell clonal expansion by approximately threefold. Further, CD40 activation also delayed peripheral T cell deletion after activation. Dying, activated T cells were quantitated by detecting extracellular phosphatidylserine with concomitant staining for SAg-reactive T cells using a TCR Vbeta-specific mAb. Upon close examination, it was shown that CD40 activation delayed the death of the activated T cells. Additionally, it was found that enhanced survival of CD4 T cells was equally dependent on APC expression of B7-1 and B7-2. This is in contrast to CD8 T cells, which did not depend as much on B7-1 as B7-2. Thus, CD40 activation indirectly promotes T cell growth and delays the death of SAg-stimulated CD4 T cells in vivo. These data suggest that one way CD40 activation promotes a more robust immune response is by indirectly increasing the production of effector T cells and by keeping them alive for longer periods of time.

Abstract
The spontaneously hypertensive/NIH-corpulent (SHR/N-cp) rat is a genetic model that exhibits both non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and hypertension. To determine the impact of long-term treatment with the long-acting angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor perindopril (PE) on the glucose metabolism, lipid levels, and heart in this model, studies were performed in three groups of SHR/N-cp rats maintained on a diet containing 54% carbohydrate with 18% sucrose and 36% starch. One group of obese rats received PE (0.5 to 1.0 mg/kg body weight/d) for 3 to 4 months, a second group of obese rats received no treatment, and a third group of lean rats were used as controls. The mean systolic blood pressure (SBP) increased gradually in both untreated obese and lean rats, with lean animals showing slightly higher levels compared with untreated obese rats. By contrast, SBP was reduced to normal levels in PE-treated obese rats throughout the treatment period. Compared with lean rats, obese rats showed significantly higher body weight and fasting serum levels of glucose, insulin, total cholesterol (TC), and triglyceride (TG). However, no significant differences were observed in these metabolic parameters between PE-treated and untreated obese rats. Plasma renin activity measured at the end of the treatment period was significantly higher in PE-treated rats compared with untreated obese and untreated lean rats. The mean heart weight and left ventricular weight, expressed in absolute terms or indexed to body weight, were significantly lower in PE-treated versus untreated obese and untreated lean rats. To further determine whether glucose metabolism is directly affected by PE treatment, in vitro glycogen synthesis was evaluated in isolated soleus muscles obtained from three additional groups of animals. The basal rate of muscle glycogen synthesis was significantly lower in obese compared with lean rats (P < .05), but did not differ between PE-treated and untreated obese rats. Maximal insulin-stimulated glycogen synthesis increased threefold in PE-treated obese rats, but this increase did not differ from the increases observed in untreated obese and lean rats. In conclusion, the present study shows that long-term PE treatment in obese SHR/N-cp rats with NIDDM and hypertension effectively controlled systemic arterial pressure and resulted in a significant reduction in left ventricular weight. However, these favorable effects of PE were not associated with significant improvement in glucose tolerance, hyperinsulinemia, and hyperlipidemia in this model. PE also had no direct stimulatory effects on either basal or insulin-mediated glycogen synthesis in the isolated soleus muscle of obese rats, perhaps because of the severe insulin-resistant state of the animals. Our results support the clinical observations that antihypertensive therapy with ACE inhibitors has neutral effects on glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity in patients with combined hypertension and NIDDM.

Abstract
Cattle immunised against Theileria annulata with one parasite strain have been found to be immune to re-challenge with different strains of the parasite. However, recent evidence of apparent strain specificity has been documented in cattle immunised with attenuated parasite-infected cells. In this study the strain specificity of major histocompatibility complex class I-restricted cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL), a major anti-parasite effector mechanism, was examined. CTL generated following challenge with the Hissar (Indian) strain effectively lysed autologous cells infected with this strain of the parasite. However, CTL were less effective against cells infected with the Gharb (Moroccan) strain and showed virtually no reactivity against the Ankara (Turkish) strain, providing the first direct evidence for strain specificity in immune responses against T. annulata.

Abstract
The tick-borne protozoan parasite Theileria annulata causes tropical theileriosis, a severe leukoproliferative disease of cattle, which naive susceptible animals fail to control. The parasite infects and transforms macrophages, developing in the local draining lymph node. IFN gamma has been shown to block parasite development in newly infected cells, and inhibits the growth of fully differentiated macroschizont stage-infected cells in vitro. However, the parasite has been found to specifically induce IFN gamma production by T cells and appears to flourish in the face of this T cell-derived response in vivo. Here we show that the production of IFN gamma in vivo is tightly controlled by the parasite. Induction of cytokine production by T cells is not initiated until the parasite has developed beyond the IFN gamma sensitive trophozoite stage. Cytokine production is kept high as infected macrophages develop, and IFN gamma appears to play an active role in maintaining the growth of these cells. Once the infection is fully established, IFN gamma is down regulated, avoiding potential inhibitory effects. Thus by controlling T cell IFN gamma production, the parasite induces a "window" of cytokine expression which promotes its own growth, but avoids potential inhibitory effects of the cytokine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine intravascular and intrasynovial pharmacokinetics of the R and S enantiomers of ketoprofen after i.v. and i.m. administration to horses. ANIMALS 6 healthy adult mares. PROCEDURE Horses were weighed and ketoprofen (2.2 mg/kg of body weight) was administered i.v. Blood and synovial fluid samples were obtained and analyzed for concentrations of the R and S enantiomers by means of a modified reverse-phase stereospecific high-pressure liquid chromatographic method. Three weeks later, the procedure was repeated, except that ketoprofen was given IM. Protein binding of ketoprofen enantiomers was determined by means of ultrafiltration. Nonlinear least squares methods were used to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters. RESULTS Data obtained after i.v. administration best fit an open, two-compartment model. Mean +/- SD S-to-R serum concentration ratios after i.v. and i.m. administration were 1.36 +/- 0.214 and 1.34 +/- 0.245, respectively. Intrasynovial concentrations of the R and S enantiomers of ketoprofen could be measured for only the first 3 hours after i.v. administration; concentrations were less than the limit of quantification by 4 hours after i.v. administration and at all times after i.m. administration. Extent of protein binding of the R enantiomer was not significantly different from extent of protein binding of the S enantiomer; extent of protein binding did not appear to be concentration dependent. Mean free S-to-free R serum concentration ratios, adjusted for protein binding, after i.v. and i.m. administration were 1.58 and 1.56, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The R and S enantiomers of ketoprofen are rapidly absorbed and eliminated, have low volumes of distribution, and are highly protein bound.

Abstract
In this study we present data on a novel cell surface antigen recognized by monoclonal antibody (mAb) VPM30, originally thought to recognize only bovine and ovine sIg+ B cells from peripheral blood. Here we show that the antigen, molecular mass 28 kDa, is not only found in B cell follicles in frozen sections, but when used on paraffin sections VPM30 specifically stains B cells in the light zone of germinal centers but not in the mantle or dark zones. In addition we show that the antigen is also expressed by 90% of T cells after activation, with kinetics of antigen expression mirroring those of proliferation. By both size and distribution, the antigen appears to be novel, corresponding to no known cluster of differentiation, and will be of great use in the study of ruminant cellular immune responses.

Abstract
"Exotic" European cattle are highly susceptible to T. annulata infection. In immunised animals, several effective anti-parasite responses can be demonstrated, such as anti-macroschizont cytotoxic T cells (CTL), and nitric oxide killing of parasites. The failure of infected animals to mount an effective primary immune response suggests that the presence of the parasite directly interferes with the development of immunity. When the activation pathways of CD4+ T cells in draining lymph nodes were examined during the course of a primary infection it was found that the development of this essential arm of the immune response was altered. Instead of interacting with antigen presenting cells in the paracortex, the majority of CD4+ T cells were rapidly activated by developing infected cells in the medulla of the node. Activation of T cells by infected cells also drastically alters the cytokines produced by the T cells. During effective immune responses, the principal cytokine involved appears to be IL-2, with only small, controlled "bursts" of IFN gamma production. However, IL-2 responsiveness is only transient in animals undergoing primary infection, while IFNg production is greatly elevated. IFN gamma does not appear to control parasitised cells, and may even aid the growth of infected macrophages--large numbers of macrophages enter the cell cycle during the peak period of IFN gamma production. Uncontrolled parasite-induced IFN gamma production is also likely to account for the local failure of antibody responses. Germinal centres in infected lymph nodes lose normal morphology, with IFN gamma sensitive zones failing to develop. A third strategy which the parasite uses to evade immune response destruction is through affecting CTL activity. CTL in infected draining lymph nodes lose expression of the adhesion molecule CD2--a molecule is essential in adherence to target cells for lysis. CD2- CTL are unable to lyse macroschizont infected cells.

Abstract
Theileria annulata macroschizont-infected cell lines are successfully used as vaccines in several countries. The inoculated animals produce a strong allogeneic response against the MHC antigens of the immunizing cell line followed by an anti-parasite response. Immunity against the parasite wanes in the absence of challenge and re-immunization is sometimes recommended. However, it is not known if allogeneic responses generated by the first immunization with a T. annulata infected cell line will interfere with the boosting of immunity against the parasite at the time of re-immunization with the same cell line. Animals were primed against MHC antigens by skin grafting, followed by immunization with a T. annulata infected cell line prepared from the skin donor. A strong anti-MHC response was produced. This interfered with parasite transfer and the development of an anti-parasite immune response; the effect was more marked when a low vaccine cell dose was used. There was a negative correlation between the ease of isolating infected cells from the animals after cell line immunization, and the subsequent response to challenge. Where no cell lines could be isolated, the animals were fully susceptible to sporozoite challenge. These observations are of immediate importance in endemic areas where cell lines of T. annulata schizonts are being used as vaccines to control the disease.

Abstract
Theileria annulata is a protozoan parasite which infects and transforms bovine macrophages. Infected macrophages possess augmented antigen presentation capabilities, as they are able to activate the majority of T cells from unexposed animals. In vivo, T cells in the draining lymph node (principal site of parasite development) are activated 'non-specifically' by the parasite. This event is followed by failure of the immune response to control the infection. Protective immune responses against intra-macrophage protozoa are usually mediated by T helper 1 (Th1) T cell responses. Here we examine the cytokine responses made by T. annulata-activated T cells. We show that the outcome of in vitro activation of T cells by parasitized macrophages is a skewing of their cytokine responses towards preferential expression of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) mRNA. The in vitro response is mirrored during in vivo infection, as greatly elevated amounts of IFN-gamma protein are found in lymph efferent from infected lymph nodes, while expression of IL-4 mRNA within the node stops. IFN-gamma production does not correlate with protection against the parasite, as infected cells flourish during peak IFN-gamma production, and only very small amounts of IFN-gamma are produced during the effective immune response of an immunized animal. Overproduction of IFN-gamma and loss of IL-4 expression are also likely to account for the failure of B cells to reach the light zone of germinal centres, a developmental step which is tightly regulated by cytokines.

Abstract
Buttress reinforcement of a primary esophageal repair after perforation may diminish the potential for breakdown or leakage of the approximation. We describe a method of reinforcing a primary esophageal repair by using pleural tissue that is secured in place with an extrapleural, soft T-tube attached to a suction device. This technique is simple to apply and may maximize recovery of respiratory function by permitting timely removal of chest tubes.
