Abstract
The initiation and the early process of bystander response induced by low dose alpha-particle irradiation are very important for understanding the mechanisms underlying the bystander response. Using a 1 cGy alpha-particle to irradiate 50% of the area of a rectangular mylar dish, time-dependent DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) were induced shortly after irradiation in AG1522 cells, located either in the irradiated area or in the non-irradiated bystander area, reaching a maximum 30 min post irradiation. Medium transfer experiments showed that the conditioned medium harvested from the irradiated culture induced excessive DNA DSBs in the medium recipient cells, and the DSB-inducing ability of the medium showed was time-dependent. The medium transfer results indicated that the soluble bystander signalling molecule(s) had been generated very soon (probably less than 2.5 min) after irradiation and exist continuously to 30 min although the production of signalling molecule(s) decreased after 10 min post irradiation. Pre-treatment with dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) eliminated the DNA DSB-inducing ability of the conditioned medium, as well as the formation of excessive DNA DSBs in both irradiated and non-irradiated bystander areas, indicating that reactive oxygen/nitrogen species etc. might be involved in these processes.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The fluoropyrimidine drug fluorouracil (FU) is one of the most frequently prescribed chemotherapeutic drugs for the curative and palliative treatment of various cancer patients. The identification of biological factors associated with tumors either responsiveness or resistance to FU chemotherapy, including FU, is increasingly being recognized as an important field of clinical cancer research. AIM to analyze the relationship between intra-tumoral dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) level and FU chemosensitivity, as DPD is the initial and rate-limiting enzyme in the catabolism of FU. MATERIALS AND METHODS The histoculture drug response assay (HDRA) was performed for 54 patients. DPD expression was examined in 81 tumor samples from breast cancer patients received two cycles of FU-based primary chemotherapy before operation. RESULTS We found that intra-tumoral DPD enzyme activity was inversely correlated with FU cytotoxicity. We also revealed that low DPD expression was correlated with clinical response to FU-based primary chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS Our study indicated that DPD is a promising molecular maker for identifying tumor cells sensitivity in breast cancer patients receiving FU-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
We report a measurement of the time-dependent CP-asymmetry parameters S and C in color-suppressed B{0}-->D{(*)0}h{0} decays, where h{0} is a pi{0}, eta, or omega meson, and the decays to one of the CP eigenstates K+K-, K{S}{0}pi{0}, or K{S}{0}omega. The data sample consists of 383 x 10{6} Upsilon(4S)-->BB decays collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B factory at SLAC. The results are S=-0.56+/-0.23+/-0.05 and C=-0.23+/-0.16+/-0.04, where the first error is statistical and the second is systematic.

Abstract
We present an analysis of inclusive Omega(c)(0) baryon production and decays in 230.5 fb(-1) of data recorded with the BABAR detector. Omega(c)(0) baryons are reconstructed in four final states (Omega(-)pi(+), Omega(-)pi(+)pi(0), Omega(-)pi(+)pi(+)pi(-), Xi(-)K(-)pi(+)pi(+)) and the corresponding ratios of branching fractions are measured. We also measure the momentum spectrum in the e(+)e(-) center-of-mass frame. From the spectrum, we observe Omega(c)(0) production from B decays and in cc events, and extract the two rates of production.

Abstract
We have performed a search for the flavor-changing neutral-current decays B-->pil+ l-, where l+ l- is either e+ e- or mu+ mu-, using a sample of 230 x 10(6) Upsilon(4S)-->BB decays collected with the BABAR detector. We observe no evidence of a signal and measure the upper limit on the isospin-averaged branching fraction to be B(B-->pil+ l-)<9.1 x 10(-8) at 90% confidence level. We also search for the lepton-flavor-violating decays B-->pie+/- mu-/+ and measure an upper limit on the isospin-averaged branching fraction of B(B-->pie+/- mu-/+)<9.2 x 10(-8) at 90% confidence level.

Abstract
We report observations of CP violation in the decays B(0) --> K(+)pi(-) and B(0) --> pi(+)pi(-) in a sample of 383 x 10(6) Upsilon(4S) --> BB[over] events. We find 4372+/-82 B(0) --> K(+)pi(-) decays and measure the direct CP-violating charge asymmetry A(Kpi) = -0.107+/-0.018(stat)(-0.004)(+0.007)(syst), which excludes the CP-conserving hypothesis with a significance of 5.5 standard deviations. In the same sample, we find 1139+/-49 B(0) --> pi(+)pi(-) decays and measure the CP-violating asymmetries S(pipi) = -0.60+/-0.11(stat)+/-0.03(syst) and C(pipi) = -0.21+/-0.09(stat)+/-0.02(syst). CP conservation in B(0) --> pi(+)pi(-) (S(pipi) = C(pipi) = 0) is excluded at a confidence level 1-C.L. = 8 x 10(-8), corresponding to 5.4 standard deviations.

Abstract
6022 Background: We have previously reported nuclear localization of EGFR protein in oropharyngeal cancer tissue. Nuclear EGFR levels were inversely correlated with survival and response to radiotherapy. Here, we sought to identify determinants and correlates of nuclear EGFR content. Methods: We analyzed an oropharyngeal cancer tissue microarray for expression of key molecules of EGFR signaling cascade utilizing an automated image analysis technique (AQUA) scored on a scale of 0–255 which permits protein quantitation and subcellular localization. Patients with OSCC treated with radiotherapy (RT) or surgery and RT were eligible. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlations and multiple linear regression with robust standard errors. Results: Of the 95 tumors included in this study, 72 (75%) had sufficient tissue for analysis of nuclear EGFR. Nuclear EGFR levels were associated with membranous/cytoplasmic EGFR levels (rho=0.85, p<0.01), nuclear ERK2 (rho=0.34, p=0.01), tumor cyclin D1 (rho=−0.25, p=0.06) and the proliferation markers Ki-67 (rho=0.24,p=0.06) and PCNA (rho=0.38, p<0.01). Nuclear phosphorylated-Akt, PTEN, p53 levels did not correlate with nuclear EGFR level. In multivariable analysis, only PCNA retained its significant association (p=0.01). Conclusions: Our results are consistent with the preclinical model of translocation of membranous EGFR to the nucleus acting as a transcriptional factor and fostering cell proliferation. Nuclear EGFR may constitute a mechanism of resistance to current EGFR-targeted therapies. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
21014 Objective: To detect the hypermethylation status of RASSF1A promoter in serum DNA of lung cancer patients and to analyze its correlation with clinicopathological features. Methods: Serum DNA was extracted from peripheral blood from 80 primary lung cancer patients, 35 benign pulmonary disease patients and 15 healthy donors. The methylation status of RASSF1A promoter was determined using methylation-specific PCR technique, and the correlation between methylation profiles and clinicopathological parameters was statistically analyzed. Results: Aberrant methylation of RASSF1A was detected in 27 of the 80 (33.8%) patients with lung cancer but no benign pulmonary disease patients or healthy donors (p<0.001). RASSF1A was preferentially observed in small cell lung cancer (p=0.042), while no statistical difference was found among methylation frequencies of different subtypes of non-small cell lung cancer. The methylation status was also found to be associated with relative poor differentiation (p=0.009) and late stage (p=0.013), but not with gender, age or treatment. Conclusion: RASSF1A promoter is frequently hypermethylated in serum DNA of primary lung cancer patients, and RASSF1A is a promising novel biomarker for lung cancer diagnosis. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
Our objectives are to integrate current knowledge with a future perspective regarding how metagenomics can be used to integrate rumen microbiology and nutrition. Ruminal NH3-N concentration is a crude predictor of efficiency of dietary N conversion into microbial N, but as this concentration decreases below approximately 5 mg/dL (the value most often suggested to be the requirement for optimal microbial protein synthesis), blood urea N transfer into the rumen provides an increasing buffer against excessively low NH3-N concentrations, and the supply of amino N might become increasingly important to improve microbial function in dairy diets. Defaunation typically decreases NH3-N concentration, which should increase the efficiency of blood urea N and protein-derived NH3-N conversion into microbial protein in the rumen. Thus, we explain why more emphasis should be given toward characterization of protozoal interactions with proteolytic and deaminating bacterial populations. In contrast with research evaluating effects of protozoa on N metabolism, which has primarily been done with sheep and cattle with low dry matter intake, dairy cattle have greater intakes of readily available carbohydrate combined with increased ruminal passage rates. We argue that these conditions decrease protozoal biomass relative to bacterial biomass and increase the efficiency of protozoal growth, thus reducing the negative effects of bacterial predation compared with the beneficial effects that protozoa have on stabilizing the entire microbial ecosystem. A better understanding of mechanistic processes altering the production and uptake of amino N will help us to improve the overall conversion of dietary N into microbial protein and provide key information needed to further improve mechanistic models describing rumen function and evaluating dietary conditions that influence the efficiency of conversion of dietary N into milk protein.

Abstract
Attenuated, replication-competent, oncolytic herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) are effective at infecting and lysing many human malignancies in preclinical studies. Nectin-1 is a cell-surface receptor for HSV-1 envelope glycoprotein D (gD) that also forms a component of intercellular adherens junctions (AJs). We sought to determine if the disruption of AJs in squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) through calcium depletion could be utilized to increase nectin-1 exposure and enhance HSV therapy. NV1023 is a single copy gamma(1)34.5-deleted, lacZ-expressing, oncolytic HSV-1. Calcium depletion caused cell separation and increased nectin-1 expression for three SCC cell lines growing at confluence. NV1023 viral entry, soluble gD protein binding and NV1023 cytotoxicity were all significantly enhanced for these cell lines at low calcium conditions. The increase in NV1023 entry at low calcium conditions was abrogated by nectin-1 antibody blockade. Murine SCC flank tumors treated with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) showed increased nectin-1 expression and increased susceptibility to NV1023 infection. Combined NV1023 and EDTA intratumoral injections demonstrated significantly enhanced tumor regression as compared to NV1023 alone. These findings establish, as proof-of-principle, that herpes viral receptor expression may be modulated on cancer cells to enhance oncolytic therapy. This strategy might have future application toward improving therapy with a variety of herpes vectors.

Abstract
We present a measurement of the cross section of the process e(+)e(-)-->pi(+)pi(-)psi(2S) from threshold up to 8 GeV center-of-mass energy using events containing initial-state radiation, produced at the SLAC PEP-II e(+)e(-) storage rings. The study is based on 298 fb(-1) of data recorded with the BABAR detector. A structure is observed in the cross section not far above threshold, near 4.32 GeV. We also investigate the compatibility of this structure with the Y(4260) previously reported by this experiment.

Abstract
We present a measurement of the partial branching fractions and mass spectra of the exclusive radiative penguin processes B-->Kpipigamma in the range m(Kpipi)<1.8 GeV/c(2). We reconstruct four final states: K(+)pi(-)pi(+)gamma, K(+)pi(-)pi(0)gamma, K(S)(0)pi(-)pi(+)gamma, and K(S)(0)pi(+)pi(0)gamma, where K(S)(0)-->pi(+)pi(-). Using 232 x 10(6) e(+)e(-)-->BB events recorded by the BABAR experiment at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy storage ring, we measure the branching fractions B(B(+)-->K(+)pi(-)pi(+)gamma)=[2.95+/-0.13(stat)+/-0.20(syst)] x 10(-5), B(B(0)-->K(+)pi(-)pi(0)gamma)=[4.07+/-0.22(stat)+/-0.31(syst)] x 10(-5), B(B(0)-->K(0)pi(+)pi(-)gamma)=[1.85+/-0.21(stat)+/-0.12(syst)] x 10(-5), and B(B(+)-->K(0)pi(+)pi(0)gamma)=[4.56+/-0.42(stat)+/-0.31(syst)] x 10(-5).

Abstract
We present evidence for D0-D(0) mixing in D(0)-->K(+)pi(-) decays from 384 fb(-1) of e(+)e(-) colliding-beam data recorded near square root s=10.6 GeV with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II storage rings at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. We find the mixing parameters x('2)=[-0.22+/-0.30(stat)+/-0.21(syst)] x 10(-3) and y(')=[9.7+/-4.4(stat)+/-3.1(syst)] x 10(-3) and a correlation between them of -0.95. This result is inconsistent with the no-mixing hypothesis with a significance of 3.9 standard deviations. We measure R(D), the ratio of doubly Cabibbo-suppressed to Cabibbo-favored decay rates, to be [0.303+/-0.016(stat)+/-0.010(syst)]%. We find no evidence for CP violation.

Abstract
We present measurements of CP-violating asymmetries in the decay B(0)-->a(1)(+/-)(1260)pi(-/+) with a(1)(+/-)(1260)-->pi(-/+)pi(+/-)pi(+/-). The data sample corresponds to 384x10(6) BB[over ] pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B factory at SLAC. We measure the CP-violating asymmetry A(CP)(a(1)pi)=-0.07+/-0.07+/-0.02, the mixing-induced CP violation parameter S(a(1)pi)=0.37+/-0.21+/-0.07, the direct CP violation parameter C(a(1)pi)=-0.10+/-0.15+/-0.09, and the parameters DeltaC(a(1)pi)=0.26+/-0.15+/-0.07 and DeltaS(a(1)pi)=-0.14+/-0.21+/-0.06. From these measured quantities we determine the angle alpha(eff)=78.6 degrees +/-7.3 degrees.

Abstract
This paper examines the prevalence, precursors, and consequences of unwanted marital sex activities in a national sample of 1,127 married urban Chinese women aged 20-64. During the lifetime of their current marriage, 32% reported ever experiencing unwanted spousal intercourse, with about one-fifth reporting that this unwanted intercourse ever involved force. Reports for the past year were 21% unwanted intercourse, 22% unwanted sex act(s), and 72% sex only to please the husband. The major risk factors for these activities were poor relationship quality (hitting, lack of daily intimacy and foreplay, and husband insensitivity to wife's sexual needs); a woman's negative attitudes towards sex, and weak bargaining position (low income share, husband's family of superior economic status, and no additional adults in home). In addition, unwanted activity was more common when women reported sexual dysfunctions (dryness, pain, low arousal, inorgasmia), were more educated, and had more permissive sex attitudes. Net of feedback effects, unwanted sexual activity diminished women's psychological well-being.

Abstract
The nuclear LIM-only protein 4 (LMO4) is upregulated in breast cancer, especially estrogen receptor-negative tumors, and its overexpression in mice leads to hyperplasia and tumor formation. Here, we show that deletion of LMO4 in the mammary glands of mice leads to impaired lobuloalveolar development due to decreased epithelial cell proliferation. With the goal of discovering potential LMO4-target genes, we also developed a conditional expression system in MCF-7 cells for both LMO4 and a dominant negative (DN) form of its co-regulator, cofactor of LIM domains (Clim/Ldb/Nli). We then used DNA microarrays to identify genes responsive to LMO4 and DN-Clim upregulation. One of the genes common to both data sets was bone morphogenic protein 7 (BMP7), whose expression is also significantly correlated with LMO4 transcript levels in a large dataset of human breast cancers, suggesting that BMP7 is a bona fide target gene of LMO4 in breast cancer. Inhibition of BMP7 partially blocks the effects of LMO4 on apoptosis, indicating that BMP7 mediates at least some functions of LMO4. Gene transfer studies show that LMO4 regulates the BMP7 promoter, and chromatin immunoprecipitation studies show that LMO4 and its cofactor Clim2 are recruited to the BMP7 promoter. Furthermore, we demonstrate that HDAC2 recruitment to the BMP7 promoter is inhibited by upregulation of LMO4 and that HDAC2 knockdown upregulates the promoter. These studies suggest a novel mechanism of action for LMO4: LMO4, Clim2 and HDAC2 are part of a transcriptional complex, and increased LMO4 levels can disrupt the complex, leading to decreased HDAC2 recruitment and increased promoter activity.

Abstract
We present a study of the decays B+-->rho+gamma, B0-->rho0gamma, and B0-->omegagamma. The analysis is based on data containing 347 x 10(6) BB[over ] events recorded with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B factory. We measure the branching fractions B(B+-->rho+)gamma)=(1.10_(-0.33)(+0.37)+/-0.09)x10(-6) and B(B0-->rho0gamma)=(0.79(-0.20)(+0.22)+/-0.06)x10(-6), and set a 90% C.L. upper limit B(B0-->omegagamma)<0.78 x 10(-6). We also measure the isospin-averaged branching fraction B(B-->(rho/omega)gamma)=(1.25(-0.24)(+0.25)+/-0.09)x10(-6), from which we determine |Vtd/Vts|=0.200(-0.020)(+0.021)+/-0.015, where the first uncertainty is experimental and the second is theoretical.

Abstract
Using 230.2 fb-1 of e+e- annihilation data collected with the BABAR detector at and near the peak of the Upsilon(4S) resonance, 489+/-55 events containing the pure leptonic decay Ds+-->micro;+numicro have been isolated in charm-tagged events. The ratio of partial widths Gamma(D+-->micro+numicro)/Gamma(Ds+-->phipi+) is measured to be 0.143+/-0.018+/-0.006 allowing a determination of the pseudoscalar decay constant fDs=(283+/-17+/-7+/-14) MeV. The errors are statistical, systematic, and from the Ds+-->phipi+ branching ratio, respectively.

Abstract
The homogeneously staining region (hsr) involving chromosome band 11q13 includes amplified genes from this chromosome segment and carries a relatively poor prognosis in oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC), with shorter time to recurrence and reduced overall survival. We previously identified an inverted duplication pattern of genes within the 11q13 hsr in OSCC cells, supporting a breakage-fusion-bridge (BFB) cycle model for gene amplification. To validate our hypothesis that 11q13 gene amplification in OSCC occurs via BFB cycles, we carried out fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using probes for band 11q13 on 29 OSCC cell lines. We demonstrate that all OSCC cell lines with 11q13 amplification express a significantly higher frequency of anaphase bridges containing 11q13 sequences compared to cell lines without amplification, providing further experimental evidence that 11q13 gene amplification in OSCC cells occurs via BFB cycles. Elucidation of mechanisms responsible for initiating and promoting gene amplification provides opportunities to identify new biomarkers to aid in the diagnosis and prognosis of oral cancer, and may be useful for developing novel therapeutic strategies for patients with OSCC.

Abstract
Thin solid films of salmon deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) have been fabricated by treatment with a surfactant and used as host for the laser dye sulforhodamine (SRh). The DNA films have an absorption peak at approximately 260 nm owing to absorption by the nitrogenous aromatic bases. The SRh molecules in the DNA films have absorption and emission peaks at 578 and 602 nm, respectively. The maximum emission was obtained at approximately 1 wt. % SRh in DNA, equivalent to approximately 100 DNA base pairs per SRh molecule. A distributed feedback grating structure was fabricated on a SiO(2)-Si substrate using interference lithography. The grating period of 437 nm was selected, corresponding to second-order emission at the amplified spontaneous emission wavelength of 650 nm. Lasing was obtained by pumping with a doubled Nd:YAG laser at 532 nm. The lasing threshold was 3 microJ, corresponding to approximately 30 microJ/cm(2) or 4 kW/cm(2). The emission linewidth decreased from approximately 30 nm in the amplified spontaneous emission mode to <0.4 nm (instrument limited) in the lasing mode. The slope efficiency of the lasing was approximately 1.2%.

Evidence for B(0) --> rho(0)rho(0) decays and implications for the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa angle alpha. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2007; 98:111801.

Abstract
We search for the decays B(0) --> rho(0)rho(0), B(0) --> rho(0)f(0)(980), and B(0) --> f(0)(980)f(0)(980) in a sample of about 384 x 10(6) Upsilon(4S) --> BB[over] decays collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e(+)e(-) collider at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. We find evidence for B(0) --> rho(0)rho(0) with 3.5 sigma significance and measure the branching fraction B = (1.07 +/- 0.33 +/- 0.19) x 10(-6) and longitudinal polarization fraction f(L) = 0.87 +/- 0.13 +/- 0.04, where the first uncertainty is statistical, and the second is systematic. The uncertainty on the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa quark-mixing matrix unitarity angle alpha due to penguin contributions in B --> rho rho decays is 18 degrees at the 1 sigma level. We also set upper limits on the B(0) --> rho(0)f(0)(980) and B(0) --> f(0)(980)f(0)(980) decay rates.

Abstract
We report the results of a study of the exclusive charmless semileptonic decay, B0-->pi(-l)(+nu), undertaken with approximately 227 x 10(6) BB pairs collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector. The analysis uses events in which the signal B decays are reconstructed with an innovative loose neutrino reconstruction technique. We obtain partial branching fractions in 12 bins of q2, the momentum transfer squared, from which we extract the f + (q2) form-factor shape and the total branching fraction B(B0-->pi(-l)(+nu))=(1.46+/-0.07stat+/-0.08syst) x 10(-4). Based on a recent unquenched lattice QCD calculation of the form factor in the range q2>16 GeV2, we find the magnitude of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element /Vub/ to be (4.1+/-0.2stat +/- 0.2syst(+0.6)-0.4_{FF}) x 10(-3), where the last uncertainty is due to the normalization of the form factor.

Abstract
We report the observation of decays B{0}-->D{s}{(*)+}pi- and B{0}-->D{s}{(*)-}K+ in a sample of 230 x 10(6) Upsilon(4S)-->BB[over] events recorded with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+ e- storage ring. We measure the branching fractions B(B{0}-->D{s}{+}pi-)=(1.3+/-0.3(stat)+/-0.2(syst))x10(-5), B(B{0}-->D{s}{-} K+)=(2.5+/-0.4(stat)+/-0.4(syst))x10(-5), B(B{0}-->D{s}{*+}pi-)=(2.8+/-0.6(stat)+/-0.5(syst))x10(-5), and B(B{0}-->D{s}{*-}K+)=(2.0+/-0.5(stat)+/-0.4(syst))x10(-5). The significances of the measurements to differ from zero are 5, 9, 6, and 5 standard deviations, respectively. This is the first observation of B{0}-->D{s}{+}pi-, B{0}-->D{s}{*+}pi-, and B{0}-->D{s}{*-}K+ decays.

Abstract
A search for lepton flavor violating decays of the tau lepton to a lighter mass lepton and a pseudoscalar meson has been performed using 339 fb;{-1} of e;{+}e;{-} annihilation data collected at a center-of-mass energy near 10.58 GeV by the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II storage ring. No evidence of a signal has been found, and upper limits on the branching fractions are set at the 10;{-7} level.
