Abstract
The ability of cells infected with human T lymphotropic virus type III (HTLV-III) to suppress lymphocyte responses to concanavalin A (ConA) was evaluated. Thirty homosexual men, both HTLV-III seropositive and seronegative, and 11 seronegative laboratory personnel were studied. Peripheral blood lymphocytes from all groups had lower responses to ConA in the presence of HTLV-III-infected H9 cells than in the presence of uninfected H9 cells. Among HTLV-III-seropositive males, responses to ConA in the presence of infected or uninfected H9 cells correlated with the number of T4 cells present. The studies suggest that HTLV-III-infected cells can suppress normal lymphocyte responses. Possible mechanisms of this suppression are discussed.

Abstract
In clinical trials, the diagnostic utility of a radioimmunoassay (RIA) to detect Aspergillus antigen was demonstrated in sera obtained from patients with invasive pulmonary, endothelial, and disseminated aspergillosis, in cerebrospinal fluids from patients with Aspergillus meningoencephalitis, and in bronchoalveolar lavage fluids from patients with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis. The RIA was further evaluated in three blinded, controlled clinical trials. In one, sera were collected prospectively from patients with acute leukemia. Antigenemia was detected in four patients with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) due to A. flavus, appeared early in the course of infection of three patients concurrent with the onset and evolution of lung infiltrates, and remitted with antifungal chemotherapy. Antigenemia was not detected in three patients before the onset of IPA, in eight leukemic controls, or in the 24 normals. In contrast, seven bronchoscopies were performed in five patients with IPA; fungi were not isolated in three. In a second study, antigenemia was found in coded sera from two patients with invasive aspergillosis but not in eight controls. In the third controlled study, 616 sera from 79 hematology patients admitted on 152 occasions were analyzed for circulating fungal antigen. The diagnostic utility of the RIA was confirmed and levels of antigenemia correlated with the patients' clinical course. These studies demonstrate the utility of the Aspergillus antigen RIA for diagnosis of invasive aspergillosis in hospitalized high risk patients.

Abstract
A cytochemical study in samples from 100 lymphoid leukaemias, 84 of B-cell type and 16 of T-cell type, was carried out with three acid hydrolases: DAP IV, acid phosphatase (AP) and alpha-naphthyl acetate esterase (ANAE). DAP IV was studied in leukaemic T-cells both by cytochemistry and by a monoclonal antibody with the immunoperoxidase technique. Both methods showed similar results. AP and ANAE gave weak reactions in immature B-cell leukaemias (common-ALL and B-CLL) and were strongly expressed in plasma cell disorders. DAP IV showed no activity in any of the types of B-cell leukaemia studied and was strongly positive in some T-cell leukaemias but with a more restricted distribution than ANAE and AP. T-lymphoblasts (T-ALL) and mature (T8+) leukaemias were DAP IV negative. Within the T4+ malignancies DAP IV was positive in four T-prolymphocytic leukaemias, one of two T-CLL and one of three Sezary syndrome cases. Although DAP IV is strictly T-cell specific it does not appear to aid the differentiation between B- and T-cell disorders or the identification of T-cell subsets as determined by monoclonal antibodies. It remains to be established whether this enzyme will define a functionally distinct T-cell subset.

Abstract
The intracytoplasmic inclusions seen in most cells from a patient with B prolymphocytic leukaemia were analysed using both light and electron microscopy. They consisted of a dense homogeneous structure and were surrounded by a membrane, which had no continuity with the Golgi cisternae or the endoplasmic reticulum; some inclusions had a clear association with small lysosomal granules. Immunofluorescence and immunoperoxidase studies using light microscopy failed to elucidate completely the nature of the inclusions, but immunocytochemical reactions performed using electron microscopy suggested an immunoglobulin nature. All inclusions were negative for acid phosphatase and periodic acid Schiff. The nature of the inclusions described in the prolymphocytes of this patient were compared with those previously recorded in B prolymphocytic leukaemia.

Abstract
The expression of two membrane antigens identified by the monoclonal antibodies (McAb) My9 and 3C5 has been investigated in cells from 80 acute leukemias. My9 was positive in the blasts of 33 out of the 38 (87 per cent) cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) tested, regardless of FAB subtype, and in 13 of 18 (72 per cent) cases of chronic granulocytic leukemia (CGL) in myeloid blast crisis. The reactivity of 3C5 was confined to myeloblastic (M1) AML, 85 per cent of cases, and to lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) of B-lineage, 70 per cent of cases, including CGL in lymphoid transformation. My9 was negative in ALL except for an unusual case. The phenotype My9+, 3C5+ was seen exclusively in M1 (69 per cent) and M2 (14 per cent) AML. Ultrastructural analysis with the immunogold method in combination with the myeloperoxidase (MPO) reaction showed that expression of My9 increased in parallel with MPO activity whereas 3C5 was expressed mainly in myeloblasts with little MPO content. We conclude that the use of these two McAb will contribute to the diagnosis and classification of AML and may throw some light to the pathogenesis of biphenotypic acute leukemias, including TdT + AML.

Abstract
Sixteen patients with advanced cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) with or without lymph node involvement, but without evidence of extranodal manifestations, were treated with a combination of total skin electron beam therapy (TSEB) and total nodal irradiation (TNI). Fourteen (87%) patients achieved a complete response (CR) lasting from 1 to 84+ months (median, 8+ months) from the completion of treatment. The best results occurred in 6 patients with pretumorous intracutaneous CTCL (Stages IB and IIA) where the CR has lasted in all patients from 8 to 84+ months (median about 27+ months). Conversely, a long-term CR occurred in only one of five patients with tumor-phase intracutaneous CTCL (Stage IIB) and in none of the 5 patients with histopathologically proven nodal involvement (Stage IVA). Radiotherapy was well tolerated with the major toxicity being bone marrow suppression. We conclude that combined TSEB and TNI is a relatively safe and effective treatment for patients with CTCL prior to the development of lymph node involvement. Long-term follow-up is needed to assess the curative potential of this treatment.

Abstract
Dissociation of RNA and DNA from Escherichia coli RNA polymerase in transcription complexes prepared with enzyme molecules located within and near a rho-dependent transcription termination region on bacteriophage T7 D111 DNA has been studied using a membrane filter-binding assay. Rho protein with ATP present mediated rapid (half-time approximately 27 s) simultaneous dissociation of about 50% of both RNA and DNA. RNA molecules were preferentially released from enzyme molecules located within the termination region. Rapid release of RNA and DNA depended on a nucleoside triphosphate but did not depend on sigma factor. Pretreatment of complexes with ribonuclease prevented dissociation of DNA. Nearly simultaneous dissociation of both RNA and DNA was also detected after a lag of 3 min when the isolated transcription complexes were incubated with all four ribonucleoside triphosphates in the absence of rho factor. In this case, release presumably occurred at the rho-independent termination site that is 5990 nucleotides downstream from the A1 promoter. Thus, the dissociation of DNA from RNA polymerase at rho-dependent and rho-independent transcription termination sites is coupled with or occurs spontaneously soon after the release of transcripts at both sites.

Abstract
Dipeptidylaminopeptidase IV (DAP IV) cytochemical reactivity was investigated in monoclonal antibody defined T-lymphocyte subpopulations from normal blood and in cells from a series of T-cell leukemias of defined immunologic phenotype. A combined monoclonal antibody/immunocolloidal gold technic, which enabled simultaneous visualisation of immunogold label and DAP IV reactivity, was used to study enzyme reactivity in normal T-cell subpopulations. Single or several discrete granules of DAP IV reaction product were observed in 72% of OKT3+ and OKT4+ cells, whereas a significantly (P less than 0.01) lower percentage of OKT8+ cells (41%) displayed positivity; B-cells were invariably DAP IV negative. In the T-cell leukemias, DAP IV reactivity was strongest in T-lymphoblastic lymphoma and T-prolymphocytic leukemia cells. In contrast, DAP IV activity was absent or expressed in a minority of cells of the more immature T-acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The enzyme reaction also was negative in lymphocytes from other mature T-cell leukemias: T-chronic lymphocytic leukemia (OKT8+), adult T-cell lymphoma-leukemia, and Sezary syndrome (both OKT4+). DAP IV expression did not parallel that of acid phosphatase or alpha-naphthyl acetate esterase in leukemic T-lymphoid cells except in T-lymphoblastic lymphoma and T-prolymphocytic leukemia, where a strong reaction with the three hydrolytic enzymes was observed.

Abstract
We studied the effects of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and other metabolites of vitamin D3 on the maturation in liquid culture and on colony formation in semisolid media of marrow and buffy coat cells from patients with myeloid leukemias and from normal individuals. After incubation with 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3, a proportion of both normal and leukemic myeloid cells resembled cells of the monocyte-macrophage lineage; these cells expressed alpha-naphthylacetate esterase and were able to phagocytize and kill candida organisms. When granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells (CFU-GM) were incubated with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, the number of monocyte-macrophage colonies was increased and the number of granulocyte colonies was reduced; megakaryocyte colony formation (CFU-Mk) was inhibited substantially; and there was no effect on erythroid (BFU-E) or multilineage (CFU-GEMM) progenitor cell colony formation. We propose that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 may induce cells that are normally committed to differentiate along the granulocytic pathways to differentiate instead along the monocyte-macrophage pathway. If these in vitro observations reflect the in vivo activity of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, it may be involved in the modulation of collagen deposits in the bone marrow.

Abstract
A 3-beat episode of ventricular arrhythmia was recorded in a patient with an AV universal (DDD) pacemaker. This arrhythmia mimicked "endless loop" tachycardia (ELT) because it appeared following a ventricular premature contraction (VPC), its rate approached the preset upper-rate limit and the regular P waves disappeared during the episode. However, as retrograde conduction was absent ELT could not exist. The mechanism of this arrhythmia was based on a combination of interference by VPC of the regular sequence of QRS complexes produced by P wave and the pacemaker commitment to maintain an upper rate limit by prolongation of the programmed pacemaker AV delay.

Abstract
Infections due to BK papovavirus frequently occur in renal transplant recipients [2] and may be involved in a variety of syndromes, including ureteral obstruction, deterioration of graft function, and pancreatic disease. The source of the BK papovavirus in these cases is not clear. Because the renal allograft has been implicated as a source of primary cytomegalovirus infections in renal transplant recipients [3], we investigated the possibility that donor kidneys may also contribute to the transmission of BK papovavirus. A fourfold or greater increase in titers of HAI antibodies to BK papovavirus was observed in 55 (24%) of 230 renal transplant recipients. Seronegative recipients who received kidneys from seropositive donors were 3.5 times more likely to develop an infection due to BK papovavirus than were seronegative recipients of kidneys from seronegative donors. The antibody status of the donor did not affect the likelihood of an increase in titers of antibody to BK papovavirus in seropositive recipients. These results suggest that BK papovavirus may be transmitted with transplanted kidneys and that transplant recipients who are at risk for primary infection by this route are more than twice as likely to have increased titers of antibody to BK papovavirus as those who are at risk for the reactivation of an infection. Further studies should be performed to define the relative role of cadaver vs. living, related kidney donors in the transmission of BK papovavirus and the clinical syndromes that are related to primary and reactivated infections.

Abstract
Two types of Hib vaccines were compared for efficacy and safety in 71 normal children in three age groups: 36 to 72 months, 15 to 18 months, and 6 to 8 months. One vaccine contained the Hib-specific capsular polysaccharide, PRP; the second vaccine contained PRP combined with pertussis vaccine, PRP-P. A third vaccine, DTP, was administered to a control group for each age. Anti-PRP antibody levels were greater after vaccination with PRP-P than after PRP in all three age groups. Immunoresponsiveness to both vaccines increased with age. A lower incidence of side effects was seen with both PRP (15%) and PRP-P (20%) than with DTP (56%). The results suggest that PRP-P is both well tolerated clinically and has greater immunogenicity than PRP.

Abstract
Two polyvalent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccines were evaluated in about 200 infants. Vaccination did not affect nasopharyngeal carriage of pneumococci nor was titer of type-specific antibody, as determined by radioimmunoassay, predictive of subsequent carriage of individual types. Otitis media occurred with equal frequency in vaccinated and in control children. One of four episodes of documented pneumococcal bacteremia occurred after vaccination and was caused by a type contained in the vaccine. No indication of either an efficacious or detrimental effect of pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccines administered to infants was seen in this study.

Abstract
Rats made tolerant to endotoxin are partially protected from the histologic and functional injury that usually accompanies intramuscular administration of glycerol. Glycerol nephrotoxicity appears to correlate with the reductions in renal blood flow and cardiac output which follow injection. Studies were undertaken to determine if endotoxin tolerance would alter these hemodynamic abnormalities. A radiolabelled microsphere technique was employed to measure cardiac output and regional blood flow. Endotoxin-tolerant rats had higher cardiac outputs and renal blood flows and lower renovascular resistances than control rats when studied 90 min after intramuscular glycerol. These observations may partially explain the reduced nephrotoxicity of glycerol in rats made tolerant to endotoxin.

Abstract
Highly repeated, or satellite, DNA fractions have been isolated from total Triturus cristatus carnifex DNA by renaturation kinetics, caesium salt centrifugation and restriction endonuclease digestion. We have shown by DNA/DNA in situ hybridisation and autoradiography that all of these probes bind to C-band positive regions on mitotic or lampbrush chromosomes of T.c. carnifex. Under conditions of DNA to RNA-transcript in situ hybridisation labelled satellite DNA binds to nascent RNA transcripts that are still associated with the DNA axes of many lampbrush loops. The majority of the loops that label heavily in these experiments are located on the long arms of chromosome I, a region previously shown to be rich in highly repeated DNA and to have many of the properties of heterochromatin. These satellite DNA probes also label many loops on a comparable chromosome region in T. marmoratus, a species closely related to T. cristatus. However, in DNA/RNA-transcript hybrids to other more distantly related species of Triturus, there are no chromosome regions that have the same concentration of labelled loop pairs as the long arms of T.c. carnifex and T. marmoratus, although some loop pairs do label. We have cloned two satellite sequences in pBR322, and have obtained the same results using these pure probes as we obtained using satellite probes isolated by other techniques. These results demonstrate unequivocally that satellite DNA is transcribed on lampbrush chromosomes during oogenesis in crested newts.

Abstract
There is a strong possibility that many patients perceive newspaper advertisements as a sign of dependability or prestige rather than the evidence of unethical behavior that professionals traditionally frown upon. "Confidence in the doctor" was the foremost reason given for seeking professional service in a survey by a major commercial optical corporation. Two hundred fifty patients interviewed in a contact lens practice agreed, and the tabulated results would indicate that price alone is not a major factor.

Abstract
Salk observed that in an overwhelming majority of cases (80%) mothers prefer to hold their infants across the left shoulder. This preference occurs over a diversity of cultures and is not related to the hand preference of the mother. Salk suggested a fetal imprinting to the sound of the heartbeat as the mechanism responsible for this phenomenon. While such speculation is intriguing, it is not scientifically testable. 2 experiments were performed to examine a more testable hypothesis. Results of these studies suggest that the initial head-turning preference of an infant is related to the holding preference of its mother.

Abstract
Intermediate repetitive sequences of Plethodon cinereus which comprised about 30% of the genomic DNA were isolated and iodinated with 125I. About 5% of the 125I-repetitive fraction hybridized with a large excess of DNA from P. dunni at Cot 20. About half of the 125I-DNA in the hybrids was resistant to extensive digestion with S-1 nuclease. The average molecular size of the S-1 nuclease-resistant fraction was about 100 nucleotide pairs. The melting temperature of the S-1 nuclease-resistant fraction was about 2 degrees lower than that of the corresponding fraction made with P. cinereus DNA. These results are taken to indicate the presence in the genomes of P. cinereus and P. dunni of evolutionarily stable "common" repetitive sequences. The average frequency of repetition of the common repetitive sequences is about 6,000 X in both species. The common repetitive fraction is also present in the genomes of other species of Plethodon, although the general populations of intermediate repetitive sequences are markedly different from one species to another. The cinereus--dunni common repetitive sequences could not be detected in plethodontids belonging to different tribes, nor in more distantly related amphibians. The profiles of binding of the common repetitive sequences to CsCl or CS2SO4-Ag+ density gradient fractions of P. dunni DNA suggested that these sequences consisted of heterogeneous components with respect to base compositions, and that they did not include large amounts of the genes for ribosomal RNA, 5S RNA, 4S RNA, or histone messenger RNA. In situ hybridization of the 3H-labelled intermediate repetitive sequences of P. cinereus to male meiotic chromosomes of the same species gave autoradiographs after an exposure of seven days showing all 14 chromosomes labelled. The pattern of labelling appeared not to be random, but was impossible to analyse on account of the irregular shapes and different degrees of stretching of diplotene and prometaphase chromosomes. In situ hybridization of the same sequences to meiotic chromosomes from P. dunni gave autoradiographs after 60 d exposure in which all chromosomes were labelled. These heterologous in situ hybrids can only have involved the "common" repetitive sequences.
