Abstract
The cytochrome P450 steroid hydroxylases are coordinately regulated by steroidogenic factor 1 (SF-1), a protein expressed selectively in steroidogenic cells. Based on its expression in steroidogenic tissues and DNA-binding specificity, we isolated a putative SF-1 cDNA from an adrenocortical cDNA library. As evidence that this cDNA encodes SF-1, we now show that it is selectively expressed in steroidogenic cells, that an antiserum against its protein product specifically abolishes the SF-1-related gel-shift complex, and that its coexpression increases promoter activity of the 21-hydroxylase 5'-flanking region in transfection experiments. Sequence analyses of the SF-1 cDNA revealed that it is the mouse homolog of fushi tarazu factor I (FTZ-F1), a nuclear receptor that regulates the fushi tarazu homeobox gene in Drosophila. A second FTZ-F1 homolog, embryonal long terminal repeat-binding protein (ELP), was recently isolated from embryonal carcinoma cells. SF-1 and ELP cDNAs are virtually identical for 1017 base pairs, including putative DNA-binding domains, but diverge at their 5'- and 3'-ends. One genomic clone contained both SF-1- and ELP-specific sequences, confirming their origin from a single gene. Characterization of this gene defined shared exons encoding common regions and alternative promoters and 3'-exons leading to differences between the two FTZ-F1 transcripts. We used in situ hybridization with transcript-specific probes to study the ontogeny of SF-1 and ELP expression. ELP transcripts were not detected from embryonic day 8 to adult, consistent with its previous isolation from embryonal carcinoma cells and its postulated role in early embryonic development.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
PURPOSE The prognostic value of tumor-cell DNA content (ploidy) was evaluated in children with unresectable, nonmetastic rhabdomyosarcoma of embryonal histology. PATIENTS AND METHODS Flow-cytometric techniques were used to estimate the ploidy of tumor specimens from 34 patients with embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma who were enrolled in the intergroup rhabdomyosarcoma study III (IRS III) from 1985 to 1991. Tumors were classified as diploid or hyperdiploid (DNA content, 1.1 to 1.8 times that of normal diploid cells). The influence of ploidy on clinical outcome was assessed by the Kaplan-Meier technique and Cox regression analysis with stepwise selection. RESULTS Twelve of the tumor specimens were diploid and 22 were hyperdiploid. The patient groups defined by diploid or hyperdiploid tumors had similar presenting characteristics (eg, age, tumor size, and anatomic site). Significantly more children with hyperdiploid tumors achieved a complete response than did children with diploid tumors (85% v 42%; P = .01). The probability of progression-free survival at 5 years (+/- SE) was 91% +/- 6% for the hyperdiploid group, compared with 17% +/- 11% for the diploid group (P < .001). Hyperdiploidy was also associated with a significantly higher overall survival rate at 5 years: 96% +/- 4% versus 50% +/- 14% (P = .004). Ploidy retained its prognostic significance after adjustment for tumor site in the Cox regression model. CONCLUSION Tumor-cell ploidy strongly correlates with outcome in children with nonmetastic, unresectable embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma. The two biologically distinct groups identified by this measure would benefit from further refinements in risk-directed therapy.

Abstract
Twenty-six patients undergoing right cardiac catheterization were examined by pulsed doppler echocardiography (PDE), spectrum analysis of the shape of flow velocity curve of the pulmonary arteria during systole was made. Pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) was qualitatively and qualitatively evaluated by right ventricular systolic time interval (RSTI) derived from pulmonary doppler blood flow velocity pattern. The correlation between PAP and the values of RSTI was evaluated, multiple stepwise regression analysis was performed. The pulmonary flow pattern and the values of RSTI measured from right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) and main pulmonary artery (MPA) were compared. The results showed that: 1. Qualitative evaluation of PAP: (1) the triangular configuration of the pulmonary flow pattern was the feature of the pulmonary ejection flow in pulmonary hypertension (PH). (2) AT < 100ms AT/ET < 0.30 and PEP/AT > 1.1 indicated PH (PAMP > or = 2.7 kPa, AT < 100 ms, sensitivity 92.3%, specificity 100%). 2. Quantitative evaluation of PAP: (1) simple regression analysis: AT, AT/PEP especially AT showed a good inverse correlation with PAP, which was improved when a logarithmic function was applied, but not improved by the square root of heart rate. The liner regression equation and the correlation coefficient were: log PASP = -6.3617 AT +2.825 (r = -0.7925, P < 0.001); log PADP = -0.4569 AT +74.182 (r = -0.8513, P < 0.001); log PAMP = -0.0073 AT +2.198 (r = -0.8635, P < 0.001). (2) multiple stepwise regression analysis: the stepwise analysis of six parameters (PEP, ET, AT, AT/ET, AT/PEP, square root of R-R) showed that AT, PEP were the best parameters correlated with PAP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Serum levels of interleukin-2 receptor (IL2R) were determined in children with newly diagnosed Hodgkin disease (n = 68), Wilms tumor (n = 20), osteosarcoma (n = 18), rhabdomyosarcoma (n = 18), or Ewing sarcoma (n = 15). Measurements of soluble IL2R were positively correlated with disease stage in Hodgkin disease but not in other tumors. Very high levels of soluble IL2R (> or = 5000 U/ml) were significantly associated with a poorer treatment outcome in Hodgkin disease (p = 0.006) and retained significance in a multivariate analysis (p = 0.03). The addition of soluble IL2R measurements to existing prognostic models may improve risk assignment in children with Hodgkin disease.

Abstract
Levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) were measured in serum samples taken at diagnosis from pediatric patients with Hodgkin's disease (n = 69), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (n = 28), Wilms' tumor (n = 20), osteosarcoma (n = 17), rhabdomyosarcoma (n = 18), or Ewing's sarcoma (n = 15). Median levels of serum ICAM-1 were significantly higher in acute lymphoblastic leukemia and Hodgkin's disease than in controls and other malignancies. Levels were positively correlated with disease stage for patients with Hodgkin's disease, Ewing's sarcoma or Wilms' tumor, and with the frequency of relapse in Hodgkin's disease (P = .016). Serum levels were normal in all of 76 patients tested in remission. It remains to be determined whether increased serum ICAM-1 levels simply reflect a greater tumor burden or whether this molecule contributes directly to the progression of childhood malignancies.

Abstract
Severe vitamin D deficiency has been produced in mice as evidenced by severe hypocalcemia and an absence of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in blood. Vitamin D deficiency was accompanied by a slight decrease in body weight and food consumption. Vitamin D-deficient and vitamin D-sufficient mice were sensitized with dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB). Sensitivity to DNFB was determined by treatment of one ear with DNFB. The ratio of thickness of the treated ear to that of nontreated ear was used as an index of cell-mediated immune reaction. The incorporation of [3H]thymidine into the DNA of the ear was also used as an index of cell-mediated immunity as was the response of thymus lymphocytes to concanavalin A. Vitamin D deficiency markedly decreased the ear thickness ratio and the [3H]thymidine incorporation ratio in DNFB-sensitized mice. Similarly, the incorporation of [3H]thymidine into the DNA of concanavalin A-treated thymus lymphocytes from DNFB-sensitive mice was significantly reduced in vitamin D deficiency. These results show that in vivo vitamin D deficiency impairs cell-mediated immunity. The provision of a vitamin D-sufficient diet for 8 weeks corrected the impaired response of the immune system, while vitamin D administration for 3 weeks did not.

Abstract
Cigarette smoking condensate and diethylnitrosamine can initiate human lung carcinogenesis as they are able to induce precancerous lesions of bronchioles and the transforming ability of human fetal lung (HFL) DNA. The induction of precancerous lesions in HFL and the acquirement of the transforming ability of HFL DNA by short-term exposure to carcinogens can be combined to yield an ideal model for the initiation of human lung carcinogenesis.

Abstract
A hybrid anti-tumour B72.3 antibody/metallothionein protein B72.3MT-1 was produced by the construction of the expression vector mpSV2neo-EP1-B72.3MT-1. This vector contained the neo gene as a selection marker, the murine immunoglobulin promoter and enhancer, and the hybrid B72.3 heavy chain gene fragment with mouse metallothionein-1 cDNA gene ligated into its CH2 domain. The expression vector was transfected to the heavy chain loss mutant B72.3Mut(K) cell line. The hybrid protein B72.3MT-1 was purified from transfectant supernates using a Protein G column. We showed that the hybrid protein retained the binding reactivity for the TAG72 antigen as the original B72.3 antibody, and the metal-binding capacity of the native metallothionein molecule. Therefore, the bifunctional hybrid protein B72.3MT-1 may be very useful in cancer imaging when labelled with radionuclides such as 99mTc.

Abstract
Recombinant DNA techniques were used to clone, construct and express the bifunctional molecule FV/IFN-gamma. The FV/IFN-gamma is a single-chain 42KD fusion protein expressed in E. coli under control of the strong T7 bacteriophage promoter in the expression vector pT7-7-FV-IFN-gamma. The fused gene fragment FV-IFN-gamma containing a single-chain anti-TAG72 FV gene fragment as well as the human recombinant cDNA fragment of IFN-gamma molecule. The renatured soluble form of FV/IFN-gamma was purified from E. coli inclusion bodies using HTPT chromatography. The yield of this fusion protein was estimated at 10mg/L. Our data showed that the FV/IFN-gamma molecule retained the TAG72 antigen-binding specificity and the IFN-gamma activity as measured in ELISA, Western blotting and up-regulation of CEA expression by IFN-gamma. Therefore, it may prove to be useful in targeting the biological effect of IFN-gamma to tumor cells and stimulating its immune destruction.

Abstract
One amino acid, tyrosine at position 96 and 97 in the VH CDR3 region of a mouse/human chimeric anti-TAG72 antibody cB72.3m4 was substituted by the phenylalanine residue and by a number of amino acids from different amino acid groups by the site-directed mutagenesis technique. The expression vector mpSV2neo-EP1-Vm11-16C1 containing mutant VH region fragments (Vm11-16) as well as the immunoglobulin enhances (E), promoter (P1) and the human genomic C1 region fragments, were transfected into a heavy-chain-loss mutant cell line B72.3Mut(K), respectively. Mutant chimeric cB72.3m11-16 antibodies were purified from the transfectant supernates and compared based upon their binding affinity for the TAG72 antigen relative to that of the original cB72.3m4 antibody. The data showed that a single amino acid substitution of tyrosine by phenylalanine and a number of amino acids including serine, asparagine, histidine and arginine at position 97 in the VH CDR3 region all resulted in approximate 18-fold lower binding affinity, whereas the substitution of tyrosine by phenylalanine at position 96 in the VH CDR3 region did not affect the binding affinity of the cB72.3m4 antibody. This suggests that the tyrosine residue at position 97 in the VH CDR3 region is in a contact position in the B72.3/TAG72 antibody/antigen interaction, and that the terminal hydroxyl group of the position 97 tyrosine side-chain contributes hydrogen bonding to the TAG72 antigen, whereas the position 96 tyrosine side-chain does not.

Abstract
The survey of T-2 toxin in wheat randomly sampled in nine provinces was carried out, employing an indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Among 330 samples, 264 samples (80%) showed positive results. The mean concentrations was 53.3 ppb. and maximal concentration was 1122.0 ppb. It was also detected high concentration (84.5-1064.4) of T-2 toxin in human intoxication wheat samples in 1991. The investigation also showed that there existed close relationship between the level of T-2 toxin contamination and the epidemic of wheat scabby.

Abstract
Observations of galaxy-galaxy and cluster-cluster correlations as well as other large-scale structure can be fit with a "limited" fractal with dimension D approximately 1.2. This is not a "pure" fractal out to the horizon: the distribution shifts from power law to random behavior at some large scale. If the observed patterns and structures are formed through an aggregation growth process, the fractal dimension D can serve as an interesting constraint on the properties of the stochastic motion responsible for limiting the fractal structure. In particular, it is found that the observed fractal should have grown from two-dimensional sheetlike objects such as pancakes, domain walls, or string wakes. This result is generic and does not depend on the details of the growth process.
