Abstract
Biochemical diversity among products of class II HLA genes has been observed in individuals who appear to be HLA-D and DR-identical by cellular and serologic typing. We used techniques of restriction enzyme fragment analysis by Southern blotting to analyze this diversity at the level of cellular DNA. A panel of 17 HLA-DR4 homozygous cell lines (HCL) were investigated by using cDNA probes homologous to DQ beta, DQ alpha, and DR beta genes. Each probe was hybridized to cellular DNA digested with a series of different restriction endonucleases. Polymorphisms were observed with the use of the enzymes Pst I, Hind III, and Bam HI: Hybridization of cellular DNA digested with Hind III and Pst I with the DQ beta probe revealed specific polymorphisms, as did hybridization of the Pst I digest with the DQ alpha cDNA probe and the Bam HI digest with the DR beta probe. The observed differences fall into two categories: first, considerable diversity was seen between HLA-DR4 HCL that represent different HLA-D-defined haplotypes; second, diversity was also observed among HCL of the same DR4-associated HLA-D cluster. In contrast to the DQ cDNA probes, hybridization with the DR beta probe revealed relatively limited polymorphism by using a panel of different restriction endonucleases. Thus, although there is a general pattern of polymorphic restriction enzyme fragments homologous to DQ probes within an HLA-D cluster, the pattern seen for any particular cell line was not sufficiently distinct to assign an HLA-D or DR specificity.

Abstract
A sequence-specific antibody that recognizes a portion of the prosegment of human renin precursor was raised and used to provide direct evidence that plasma inactive renin contains the prosequence of renal renin and is therefore probably prorenin rather than an inactivated form of previously active renin. The information may help not only to resolve a major controversy concerning the nature of inactive renin in human plasma but also to elucidate its exact physiological role.

Abstract
The center-of-disk reflectivity of Jupiter in the wavelength range from 1450 to 3150 angstroms has been computed from 30 low-dispersion IUE spectra taken during solar maximum in 1978-1980. A vertically inhomogeneous radiative transfer program is used to compute model reflectivities of various stratospheric compositions for comparison. Ammonia and acetylene are well determined because they show narrow absorption bands in the ultraviolet. Above 1800 angstroms, these two gases provide a good fit to the data, but not below. At shorter wavelengths the fit would be much improved by a small amount (0.5-1.5 ppb) of propadiene/allene (C3H4). Voyager IRIS spectra show that the IR bands of allene are not strong enough to be detected in such a small amount. Additional absorption around 1600 angstroms can be reproduced best with the presence of cyclopropane (C3H6, <15 ppb), although other absorbers (e.g., hydrocarbon molecules with more than three carbon atoms, oxygen- or nitrogen-containing molecules, or a high-altitude haze) could also explain the spectrum in this region. The data are too noisy to detect possible CO Cameron band absorption near 2000 angstroms.

Abstract
Two newly-identified HLA-D antigens were characterized by testing selected homozygous typing cells (HTC) against responder panels derived from Caucasian, Korean, Alaskan Eskimo and Israeli Jewish populations. The first specificity, defined by typing cell "AZH", is associated with DR2 haplotypes and is detected primarily in Israelis. The second specificity, defined by HTC "TAS", is associated with DR4 haplotypes and is detected with relatively high frequency in Koreans and Alaskan Eskimos. The data indicate that HTC-AZH and -TAS can be used to identify previously undefined splits or variants of lymphocyte-defined (LD) determinants associated with DR2 and DR4 haplotypes. Further, the study demonstrates the utility of comparative population analysis in identifying and characterizing alleles encoded by the HLA-D region and provides additional evidence of heterogeneity within the family of serologically-defined HLA-DR haplotypes.

Abstract
The diagnostic value of E point septal separation (EPSS) was assessed in 108 patients with coronary artery disease who underwent coronary angiography and M-mode echocardiography within a 2-year period at LAC/USC Medical Center. In patients with anterior myocardial infarction, EPSS correlated well with angiographic ejection fraction, with a specificity of 85% and sensitivity of 82%. In inferior myocardial infarction, a 21% frequency of falsely elevated EPSS values was encountered; the sensitivity for detecting reduced ejection fraction was 100% and the specificity was 67%. In combined anterior and inferior myocardial infarction, EPSS accurately estimated abnormal ejection fractions with a sensitivity and specificity of 100%. An abnormal EPSS (more than 7 mm) was found to be more sensitive (87%) and specific (75%) in detecting individuals with angiographically reduced ejection fraction (less than 50%) compared to other echocardiographic indices of pump function. Importantly, EPSS was effective in estimating left ventricular function in the presence of left bundle branch block, paradoxical septal motion, and angiographic septal, posterior, and anterior wall motion abnormalities.

Abstract
We have used seven HLA-D homozygous typing cells (HTC) in a comparative study of the DRw8 antigen complex in three racial groups. Three distinct HLA-D specificities were recognized, each associated with HLA-DRw8. Four of the HTC defined a DRw8-associated HLA-D specificity designated 8.1, one defined a specificity designated 8.2, and two defined a specificity designated 8.3. Each of the three specificities showed an association with a distinct racial group: Dw"8.1" in Caucasians, Dw"8.2" in Pacific Northwest Indians, and Dw"8.3" in Orientals. An informative primed lymphocyte (PLT) cell generated against a Dw"8.1" haplotype was able to distinguish 8.1 from 8.2 and 8.3. Using selected anti-DRw8 sera, a serologic distinction between 8.1 and 8.3 could also be made. It was thus possible, by using both cellular and serologic techniques in a comparative population study, to recognize at least three HLA-D-defined splits of the DRw8 haplotype.

Abstract
Three sets of cytotoxic effector cells were generated against the A1, B8, DR3 haplotype using haploidentical individuals in three different families. The three sets of effector cells generated against this haplotype showed excellent reproducibility testing, strong cytotoxicity against their specific targets, low autologous kill, and segregation with the sensitizing haplotype within the family. When tested against a panel of cells bearing all combinations of the A1, B8, DR3 antigens, a hierarchy of contribution of the individual HLA antigens as CML target determinants was seen. A new strong target cell determinant was identified by cytotoxicity with one of the effector cells not explicable in terms of the A1, B8, DR3 antigens or known HLA cross-reactivity. A family study demonstrated that this determinant clearly segregates with HLA. The success of this approach in defining new CML determinants may result from the generation of effector cells across a single haplotype in strong linkage disequilibrium or from the presentation of CML determinants in the context of self.

Abstract
Five sets of cytotoxic effector cells were generated, using haplo-identical, first degree relatives in five different families, against the HLA-A3; B7 serological determinants combined with different DR antigens. When tested against a panel of cells bearing combinations of the HLA-A, -B and -DR antigens it was shown that the HLA-B7 antigen was as strong a CML target determinant alone as it was in the presence of HLA-A3. The strength of the HLA-A3 antigen as target determinant varied. With effector cells primed to the HLA-A3; B7; DR2 haplotype, the A3 antigen alone behaved as a weak target determinant. When the same target cells were tested with the effector cells generated against HLA-A3; B7 without DR2, the A3 antigen behaved as a strong target determinant. A number of target cells lacking the serologically detectable HLA determinants present on the sensitizing HLA haplotype were identified as being killed by specific effector cells. These data suggest either a number of new CML target determinants controlled by different loci or the presence of a single, new locus with multiple alleles controlling CML targets.

Abstract
Cefoperazone was given to 33 surgical patients who had bacterial infections. A dose of 1 to 2 g bid was administered intravenously for an average of 8.2 days. The overall satisfactory response rate (which includes excellent and good responses) was 79%: 83% in 18 cases of peritonitis and/or intra-abdominal abscesses. 75% in 8 cases of hepatobiliary infections: 100% in 5 cases of skin and soft tissue infections; and 0 in 2 cases of sepsis. The satisfactory response rates according to the isolated organisms were: 11 of 15 Escherichia coli, 15 of 18 streptococci (including 4 of 6 enterococci) 3 of 6 Pseudomonas aeruginosa. 3 of 4 staphylococci 2 of 3 Proteus species, and 3 of 3 Klebsiella pneumoniae. No side effects were observed and there were no abnormal laboratory findings.
