Abstract
Over a period of several months a 33-year-old man had recurrent pulmonary emboli. No thromboses could be demonstrated in the peripheral venous system. Transoesophageal echocardiography showed two spherical space-occupying structures in the right ventricle which were removed operatively under the suspected diagnosis of multilobular myxomas. However, their histological examination revealed pure thrombi that had grown by apposition. This unusual findings of right-ventricular thrombi could not be explained pre- and intraoperatively by any local thrombi-favouring changes in the right heart. Tests of clotting mechanisms demonstrated lupus anticoagulant (kaolin-clotting-time mixture test: LA index 21.7 [normal: < 15]), as well as an increased IgG cardiolipin antibody concentration of 19.3 U/l). As no underlying disease was discovered, the diagnosis was by definition primary antiphospholipid syndrome. No further thrombo-embolism has occurred during continuing oral anticoagulation with phenprocoumon.

Abstract
The oxidation of benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) was examined using reconstituted systems prepared with recombinant human cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes 1A1, 1A2, 2C8, 2C10, 2E1, and 3A4 and with microsomes prepared from Saccharomyces cerevisiae expressing recombinant human P450s 2C8, 2C9, and 2C18. Products measured by HPLC included the 3- and 9-phenols, the 4,5-, 7,8-, and 9,10-dihydrodiols (detected in the presence of epoxide hydrolase), and products in the polar fraction eluting immediately after the void volume. The most active enzyme in all reactions was P450 1A1. P450 3A4 and P450 1A2 formed appreciable amounts of several of the products, including the 3-phenol. P450 2C enzymes and P450 2E1 formed relatively low amounts of all B[a]P products. Consideration of these patterns along with knowledge of levels of expression of the P450s in human tissues and previous results with microsomes leads to the conclusion that P450 1A1 should dominate the oxidation of B[a]P in tissues where it is present and inducible. In human liver the level of P450 1A1 is low and P450 3A4, P450 2C subfamily enzymes, and P450 1A2 probably all contribute. Of the human P450s considered here, P450 1A2 was the most active hepatic enzyme forming the 7,8-dihydrodiol. 7,8-Benzoflavone stimulated the oxidation of B[a]P by P450 3A4 and inhibited the oxidations catalyzed by P450 1A2. The extent of inhibition of P450 1A1 was less (than with P450 1A2), probably due to the rapid oxidation of 7,8-benzoflavone by P450 1A1. The major 7,8-benzoflavone product appears to be the 5,6-oxide.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelet-vessel wall interaction plays an important role in acute cardiovascular disorders. Thrombin is a potent platelet activator but also has profound effects on the endothelium. Endothelial cells possess antithrombotic activity by releasing nitric oxide and prostacyclin, both potent vasodilators and platelet inhibitors. We studied the role of thrombin as a regulator of platelet-vessel wall interaction in isolated human arteries suspended in organ chambers for isometric tension recording. METHODS AND RESULTS In arteries with endothelium, thrombin (0.01 to 1 U/mL) induced endothelium-dependent relaxations, which were reduced by the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME; 10(-4) mol/L) and/or indomethacin (10(-5) mol/L). Human platelets (75,000/microL) evoked only marginal contractions in arteries with endothelium (3 +/- 3% of the contraction to KCl 100 mmol/L; NS), which were markedly enhanced by endothelial removal (22 +/- 4%; P < .05). Thrombin (1 U/mL) did not affect the response to platelets in arteries with (6 +/- 5%; NS) but induced a huge contraction in rings without endothelium (53 +/- 6%; P < .01 versus control without endothelium). The potent contraction to thrombin-activated platelets (1000 to 75,000/microL) in arteries without endothelium was markedly inhibited by the thromboxane A2 synthetase/receptor antagonist ridogrel (10(-5) mol/L; P < .005 versus control) and the single-acting thromboxane receptor blocker SQ-30741 (10(-7) mol/L; P < .01 versus control). CONCLUSIONS Thus, thrombin directly stimulates platelets to release thromboxane A2, inducing potent vasoconstriction, which is prevented by the simultaneous thrombin-induced release of prostacyclin and nitric oxide from endothelial cells. In arteries devoid of functional endothelial cells, as occurs in patients with coronary artery disease, a combined inhibition of thromboxane production and action provides a potent therapeutic tool to interfere with the thrombin-induced activation of platelet-vessel wall interaction.

Abstract
We have isolated the basement membrane component nicein and performed rotary-shadow analyses using electron microscopy that showed the presence of two forms (I and II) of the protein. Molecular cloning of the cDNA that codes for the 100-kDa chain of the protein revealed that the sequence matches those independently identified for the 105-155-kDa subunit of kalinin, a recently identified basement membrane component. These data demonstrate that nicein and kalinin contain an identical chain. The length of the open reading frame in the cDNA (approximately 5200 nucleotides) and amino acid sequence obtained from the N-terminus of the 105-kDa kalinin chain showed the occurrence of a precursor polypeptide. This immature polypeptide is probably related to form I, observed by rotary shadowing, while the mature form is related to form II. It is noteworthy that nicein/kalinin subunits share discrete sequence similarities with the B2 chain of human laminin, but with a cleavage occurring within domain III that eliminates domains IV and V from the final product. The sequence of this subunit is nearly identical to that of B2t, a recently described polypeptide supposed to be related to a new laminin variant. Since nicein/kalinin expression is specifically impaired in the severe genodermatosis Herlitz junctional epidermolysis bullosa, the role and structure of this tissue-restricted laminin variant is crucial for the understanding of epidermal-dermal adhesion.

Abstract
RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism) mapping of a recessive gene (ym4) conferring resistance to barley yellow mosaic and barley mild mosaic virus was performed using progeny of 86 F1 anther-derived doubled haploid lines. Two closely linked RFLP markers that flank the gene at a distance of 1.2 centiMorgans were identified. Using one of these markers (MWG10) we obtained a clear differentiation between resistant and susceptible German cultivars. An analysis of a series of unrelated barley lines with probe MWG10 did not reveal additional RFLP fragments. The use of this probe for both marker-assisted selection and the generation of a high-density map around the resistance locus is discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coxsackievirus B3 and B4 (CVB) myocarditis was assessed by a more than twofold change in titer of the microneutralization tests against enteroviruses within 3 weeks in all patients, by an endomyocardial biopsy indicative of active myocarditis in eight cases, and by pericardial effusion and acute cardiomegaly in two patients. In all endomyocardial biopsies, immunoglobulin binding to the sarcolemma and to the interstitial tissue was demonstrated irrespective of an infiltrate being at the same focus or not. IgG binding was found in nine, IgM and IgA in seven, C3 in C1q in three, and C5b9 in three of 10 patients. In addition, circulating antimyolemmal antibodies (AMLAs) were demonstrated regularly. METHODS AND RESULTS In this study, for the first time adult human myocytes isolated from atrial appendages during open-heart surgery were used as antigen in the indirect immunofluorescence test: nine of 10 sera of patients with CVB myocarditis demonstrated AMLAs of the homologous type in titers of 1:40-1:320, whereas eight of 10 reacted with rat myocytes (heterologous type) only. Circulating AMLAs fixed complement component C4 in the majority of cases. During the in vitro assay of antibody-mediated cytolysis with vital heart cells, fixation of components C3, C4 to the myolemma in all, of C1q in seven, and of the C3b9 complex in eight of 10 sera was demonstrated after addition of a fresh complement source, indicating the potential of a complement-mediated cytolysis being operative. In vitro cardiocytolysis of isolated adult rat heart cells is present in the untreated sera of patients with enteroviral myocarditis and is abolished after adsorption of sera with CVB and with isolated rat heart cells. This indicates functional cross-reactivity of the antimembrane antibodies. To analyze further the cross-reactive epitopes, sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis of human and rat sarcolemma and consecutive immunoblots were performed. Cross-reactivity between viral (CVB) and sarcolemmal epitopes could be demonstrated to bands of 220 kd in 10%, 110 kd in 50%, 48 kd in 40%, 35 kd in 40%, and 31 and 28 kd in 30% each. Cardiospecific non-cross-reactive epitopes for antisarcolemmal antibodies or AMLAs were membrane proteins of 90 kd and 78 kd in 50%, 72 kd in 90%, 67 kd in 40%, and 45 kd in 50%. Virus-specific antibody binding sites for sera included proteins of 33 and 34 kd. CONCLUSIONS Western blot analysis of sera incubated with cardiac membranes or enteroviral proteins demonstrated that the antibodies are directed to defined epitopes of the sarcolemma. Some antibodies were cross-reactive to enteroviral proteins, indicating that enteroviral infection may be the etiological trigger of an autoreactive myocarditis. The cytolytic property of the patients' sera in vitro suggests in addition that humoral autoreactivity and antigenic mimicry are major pathogenetic principles operative in human enteroviral myocarditis and its sequelae.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The long-term results after open intracardiac removal of infected pacing electrodes are presented. METHODS Between 1985 and 1990 open intracardiac removal of 19 infected pacing electrodes was performed in seven patients (six male and one female), with a mean age of 56 years. The indications were: persisting bacteremia in three; generator pocket infection in four; endocarditis in one; and ventricular tachycardia caused by retracted electrodes in one. All electrodes were fixed in the right heart and extraction by closed methods failed. Percutaneous catheter techniques were not applied in these seven patients. In five patients two ventricular electrodes had to be removed, and in two patients a single one. A total of seven atrial electrodes were removed in six patients (one electrode each in five patients; two electrodes in one patient). All atrial and two ventricular electrodes could be removed through a pursestring suture without use of a pump oxygenator. For the removal of ten ventricular electrodes in six patients (two electrodes each in four patients; 1 electrode each in two patients) a right-sided atriotomy was necessary with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Simultaneously, five new pacing systems were implanted. RESULTS There were no early or late mortalities. In January 1991, all seven patients are alive and in a mean New York Heart Association Class 1,3 of heart failure after a mean interval of 33 months. In all cases the infection could controlled with a simultaneous antimicrobial chemotherapy and the postoperative period was free of major complications. CONCLUSION Open intracardiac removal of retained pacing electrodes with or without use of CPB is a safe procedure without major complications. It is mandatory for all infected pacing electrodes that cannot be extracted by closed methods.
