Abstract
The formation of a protein synthesis-dependent long-term memory stage in day-old chicks trained on a passive discriminated avoidance task has been shown to occur only with an adequate level of reinforcement, and is preceded by a significant change in the phosphorylation state of the forebrain synaptosomal membrane protein GAP43 protein. In the present study, it is shown that weakly reinforced training did not lead to formation of a long-term memory stage or to any change in phosphate incorporation into forebrain P2M protein bands. However, administration of ACTH immediately posttraining led to both the formation of the long-term memory stage and a preceding significant increase in the phosphorylation of GAP43. These findings are consistent with the view that a reinforcement-dependent neurohormone-mediated change to the phosphorylation of this synaptosomal membrane protein may be implicated in the triggering of long-term memory consolidation.

Abstract
Rats were injected subcutaneously with 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD 2.6 m mol/kg) alone (HD group) or with 2,5-HD and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) (2.6 m mol/kg of each agent, HD&MEK group) or with 2,5-HD 2.6 m mol/kg and 5 times that dose (13.0 m mol/kg) of MEK (HD&5MEK group). The concentration of 2,5-HD in serum and in the sciatic nerve was determined 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 h after administration. Urinary 2,5-HD concentration was determined from the beginning of administration up to 16 h afterward. 1) The concentration of 2,5-HD in the serum, the sciatic nerve, and the urine was increased significantly (p < 0.05) in the co-administered groups; the higher the MEK doses were, the greater was the increase. 2) The clearance of 2,5-HD from both the serum and the sciatic nerve was delayed in the co-administered groups. The highest concentration in serum and the sciatic nerve appeared at 1 and 2 h respectively. After administration, the biological halflife (t1/2) of 2,5-HD from 1 to 8 h in serum was 6.5, 5.8 and 12.0 h for the HD, HD&MEK, and HD&5 MEK groups respectively. From 8 to 16 h, the t1/2 in serum was 1.2, 3.2 and 16.6 h for the HD, HD&MEK, and HD&5MEK groups, respectively. In nerve tissue, the prolongation of clearance in the co-administered groups was greater than that in serum, the t1/2 from 2 to 8 h being 5.2, 9.6 and 19.9 h for the HD, HD&MEK, and HD&5MEK groups, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
While there is considerable evidence that protein kinase activity is involved in memory formation, there has been, as yet, no direct investigation of a role for protein phosphatases. However, phosphatases have been implicated in the effects of the activation of glutamate receptors of the NMDA type, in long-term depression, and in the regulation of transmitter release and membrane ion channel activities, phenomena which have been shown to be possibly involved in cellular memorial processes. In the present paper, inhibition of protein phosphatase by 0.5 nM okadaic acid, a selective inhibitor of phosphatases 1 and 2A, is demonstrated to prevent memory consolidation in day-old chicks trained on a single trial passive avoidance task. Retention losses first occurred after 30 min post-learning, at an intermediate stage of memory formation preceding a protein synthesis-dependent long-term stage. It is suggested that protein phosphatase activity is involved in precursor processes to long-term memory consolidation.

Abstract
A retrospective study on the prognosis of Graves disease was carried out. 224 cases, whose treatment has been stopped for 6 months to more than 10 years, were divided into 3 groups. 82 cases received long-term antithyroid drug therapy, 100 cases were treated with radioactive 131I and 42 cases had subtotal thyroidectomy. The prognosis was evaluated for 4 items according to clinical and laboratory investigations. The cured rate of long-term drug therapy in this study was higher than that reported by most of other authors, 131I therapy was the best among the 3 modalites of therapy. The incidence of permanent hypothyroidism was fairly low in the thyroidectomy group. 97.3% of the patients with exophthalmos showed improvement after treatment in all the 3 groups.

Abstract
Day-old chicks trained on a single trial passive discriminated avoidance task demonstrated a significant increase in in vitro phosphorylation of a 50 kDa protein in P2M fractions of total forebrain. The increase occurred 30 min posttraining, at a time when previous reports suggest that mechanisms for triggering protein synthesis-dependent long-term memory consolidation are activated. These changes in phosphorylation rates were accompanied by a substantial enhancement of total kinase activity. Immunoblotting studies with monoclonal anti-GAP43 antibody indicate that this protein is GAP43. These results contradict previous reports of a decrease in in vitro GAP43 phosphorylation following the same learning paradigm. A number of procedural differences may account for this discrepancy. The results suggest that changes in the phosphorylation state may be associated with mechanisms triggering long-term memory consolidation.

Abstract
Paired experimental design was adopted in this experiment for comparative observation on effect of electric acupuncture (EA) of Neiguan (P 6) at Chen Time (7 a.m. to 9 a.m.) versus Xu Time (7 p.m. to 9 p.m.) on left ventricular function in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). The results show that EA performed at Chen Time could improve the left ventricular function of CHD patients as indicated by shortening of PEPI and decrease of PEPI/LVETI ratio; on the contrary, EA performed at Xu Time prolonged PEPI and raised PEPI/LVETI ratio in CHD patients, suggesting impairment of left ventricular function.

Abstract
This report characterizes T-cell lines developed against peptide fragments of the neuroendocrine hormones, corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) and pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC). A MHC Class II binding motif containing a serine (S) and glutamic acid (E) residue separated by five intervening amino acids was used as a template for synthesizing peptides that may serve as T-cell epitopes. T-cell lines were generated specifically against a 17-amino-acid peptide of POMC or CRH peptide. These T-cell lines were predominantly CD4+ T cells and proliferated in an antigen-specific fashion. Furthermore, proliferation of T-cell lines specific for peptide-hormones could be inhibited by anti-MHC Class II antibody. In vitro the whole CRH protein could be processed and recognized as antigenic by CRH peptide-specific T cells. In addition, POMC-specific T cells can recognize POMC peptide presented on the membrane of MHC Class II+ POMC T cells. These results indicate that the normal T-cell repertoire of the rat contains elements which can recognize and specifically proliferate to self-proteins of the hypothalamic-hypophyseal axis. Moreover, it seems that T lymphocytes themselves may present antigens which they synthesize. The relationship of these observations to autoimmune reactions affecting the hypothalamus and/or pituitary gland, or T-cell regulation, is the subject of ongoing investigation.

Abstract
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an abundant heme protein found in granulocytes and monocytes, which plays an important role in host defense against infection. MPO enzyme activity as determined by light microscopic cytochemistry has long been an important marker used in the diagnosis of acute leukemias and other hematopoietic disorders. Recently, MPO expression has been studied at the electron microscopic level, and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against MPO protein have been developed. Furthermore, techniques and probes for analysing MPO expression at the RNA level are now available. This has made possible more extensive studies of MPO expression in a wide range of neoplastic and preneoplastic blood disorders. This review will discuss the fundamental biology of MPO as well as recent developments in our understanding of MPO expression in leukemic cells and cell lines of various lineages.

Abstract
A new mouse strain, Mus musculus Jyg, has been isolated from the wild in China. After several generations of inbreeding, Jyg mice have been found to develop mammary adenocarcinomas at a high incidence (70-80%). In order to understand the mechanism by which mammary tumors are induced in these mice, we analyzed 23 available mammary tumors and liver tissues with regard to mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) proviral integrations and the pattern of int oncogene (Wnt-1, int-2/Fgf-3, and int-3) rearrangements and expression. We found that (1) Jyg mice do not carry endogenous MMTV; (2) all tumors showed multiple MMTV proviral integrations and expressed high levels of MMTV; (3) Jyg MMTV is distinguishable from other MMTV strains; (4) a high percentage of the tumors (70%) had insertional mutations in int loci (Wnt-1, 26%; int-2, 13%; and int3, 43%); and (5) unlike Wnt-1 and int-2, a 5.9-kb int-3-related transcript is expressed in developing mouse embryos of all stages and adult mouse tissues including mammary tumors, whereas a 2.4- to 3.6-kb transcript is expressed only in Jyg mammary tumors with int-3 mutations. Taken together, this newly developed mouse strain and the milk-borne MMTV that it carries constitute a novel system for studies of the host and viral specificity of insertional mutagenesis of multiple int protooncogenes by MMTV and the role of these genes in the pathogenesis of mouse mammary carcinomas and tumor cell heterogeneity.

Abstract
Proteolipid apoprotein (PLP) is a major component of the central nervous system myelin. As such, it is capable of inducing experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) in many subhuman species. On the basis of a putative MHC class II binding motif in Lewis rats (RT-1B1) recently identified in our laboratory, the present study identifies one pathogenic T cell epitope of PLP for the Lewis rat, located in the area between amino acid residues 217 and 240. Four overlapping synthetic peptides derived from this region were tested for their antigenicity and encephalitogenicity. Although the longer peptides could not induce EAE in the Lewis rats in their "theoretically" native form after immunization, they were endowed with encephalitogenic ability when modified by N-terminal acetylation. All animals immunized with N-acetylated peptides PLP 217-233 and PLP 224-240 developed inflammation in the lower spinal cord, but with very low incidence of clinical EAE (1 of 12). In contrast, none of the animals immunized with nonacetylated peptides developed either clinical or histologic EAE. Mild inflammation of the spinal cord was also found in two of four rats immunized with N-acetylated peptide PLP 220-234. The animals immunized with the decapeptide, N-acetylated PLP 224-233, did not develop inflammation of the spinal cord. Despite the low incidence of clinical disease, it was possible to generate vigorous T cell lines against all the peptides synthesized from this region of PLP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Cardiac myosin (CM) has been implicated as an autoantigen in the induction of experimental allergic myocarditis (EAM). At the present time no myocarditogenic peptides of CM have been identified. To identify CM peptides with myocarditogenic properties we have made use of a putative binding motif for the MHC class II molecule RT1.BI in the rat. The amino acid sequence of CM alpha-chain was scanned and found to contain nine peptides that contain this binding motif, three peptides found only in the cardiac form of myosin were chosen for further study. This manuscript describes the identification of two CM peptides capable of inducing EAM in the Lewis rat. In doing so this study demonstrates the utility of an MHC class II binding motif to (correctly) predict pathogenic, autoimmunity inducing, peptides. Peptides, CM 1, and CM 2 are the first peptides described that are capable of inducing EAM in rats. The utilization of CM 2 peptide has permitted the establishment of a long term, Ag specific cell line capable of adoptively transferring EAM. Moreover, the establishment of CM 2 specific T lymphocyte lines has permitted the description of a detailed proliferative response of a myocarditogenic cell line to a specific cardiac Ag. The identification of CM 1 and 2 formally proves that CM, and not a co-purified contaminant, is an Ag in EAM. Finally, this report documents that experimentally induced giant cell myocarditis is not a separate disease entity arising from a distinct cardiac Ag or CM epitope from regular myocarditis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Thrombolysis is a promising therapy for acute ischemic stroke. However, there is evidence that neutrophils may physically plug cerebral microvessels on reperfusion, preventing the full benefit of thrombolysis. We undertook this study to determine whether there was increased endothelial expression of the intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) gene during hypoxia-reoxygenation. METHODS We isolated and cultured human brain microvascular endothelial cells and subjected them to hypoxia (PO2 < 10 mm Hg) in an anaerobic chamber followed by variable periods of reoxygenation. RESULTS Twenty-hour periods of hypoxia did not lead to endothelial cytotoxicity as measured by a chromium-release assay. By Northern blot analysis, ICAM-1 mRNA transcripts were dramatically increased at 4 hours of reoxygenation but fell toward baseline (normoxia) by 12 and 24 hours. Hypoxia alone did not lead to an increase in mRNA levels. Western blot analysis showed an increased expression of ICAM-1 at 4, 12, and 24 hours of reoxygenation. The 4-hour increase in mRNA levels was not attenuated by pretreatment with 100 mumol/L allopurinol but was reduced by 30% with the addition of 20 mmol/L N-acetyl-L-cysteine at the time of reoxygenation and completely prevented by pretreatment with N-acetyl-L-cysteine. CONCLUSIONS Hypoxia-reoxygenation leads to an increase in ICAM mRNA levels that peaks at 4 hours in human brain microvascular endothelial cells. Pretreatment with N-acetyl-L-cysteine can completely block the increase in ICAM-1 mRNA levels.

Abstract
This study was designed to investigate the mechanisms by which marine lipids rich in long chain omega-3 fatty acids inhibit autoimmune disease and prolong the survival rate in female (NZB/NZW) F1 (B/W) mice, an animal model for human SLE. Nutritionally adequate semipurified diets containing at 10% either corn oil (CO) or fish oil (FO) were fed from 1 mo of age and were monitored for proteinuria and survival. Proteinuria was detected earlier and became progressively severe in CO-fed mice. The average life span was significantly shortened by the CO diet (266.7 days +/- 12.5), whereas FO extended the survival significantly (402.1 days +/- 26.1; p < 0.001). A cross-sectional study at 6.5 mo of age revealed an increased proliferative response to T cell mitogens including bacterial superantigens and decreased serum anti-dsDNA Ab titers in the FO group compared with the CO group. Furthermore, splenocytes from the FO group when stimulated with Con A had higher IL-2 and lower IL-4 production similar to that of young (3.5 mo) mice. Flow cytometric analyses of splenocytes revealed lower Ig+, higher lymphocyte endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1, and lower Pgp-1+ cells within CD4+ and CD8+ subsets in FO-fed mice. Also, elevated IL-2 and IL-4 and significantly higher TGF-beta 1 and lower c-myc and c-ras mRNA expression and higher TGF-beta 1 and significantly lower c-Myc and c-Ha-Ras proteins were detected in spleens of FO-fed mice. Fatty acid analysis revealed significantly higher linoleic (18:2 omega-6) and arachidonic (20:4 omega-6) acid levels in splenocytes of the CO-fed group and higher eicosapentaenoic (20:5 omega-3) and docosahexanoic (22:6 omega-3) acid levels in the FO-fed group, indicating that changes in membrane fatty acid composition may contribute to the altered immune function and gene expression during the development of murine SLE.

Abstract
In this paper, we report the results of comparing the amount of GCF, collected from 100 patients suffering from periodontitis and 40 patients suffering from gingivitis with 64 normal control subjects. The results showed that the amount of GCF is independent of sex and where the GCF was collected, ie., either side of the maxillary or mandibular teeth. However, the fluid amount was closely related to inflammation of the periodontium and significantly related to the severity of inflammation and bone destruction. This study provide evidence that the determination of the GCF amount is an essential criteria for detecting periodontal activity.
