Abstract
Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is a fundamental process that maintains tissue homeostasis, eliminates damaged or infected cells, and plays a crucial role in various biological phenomena. The deregulation of apoptosis is involved in many human diseases, including cancer. One of the emerging players in the intricate regulatory network of apoptosis is apoptosis inhibitor 5 (API5), also called AAC-11 (anti-apoptosis clone 11) or FIF (fibroblast growth factor-2 interacting factor). While it may not have yet the same level of notoriety as some other cancer-associated proteins, API5 has garnered increasing attention in the cancer field in recent years, as elevated API5 levels are often associated with aggressive tumor behavior, resistance to therapy, and poor patient prognosis. This review aims to shed light on the multifaceted functions and regulatory mechanisms of API5 in cell fate decisions as well as its interest as therapeutic target in cancer.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Due to their basal stress phenotype associated to transformation, cancer cells are addicted to non-mutated, non-oncogenic proteins that do not bear such vital functions in normal cells, a phenomenon referred as Non-Oncogenic Addiction (NOA). Targeting these NOAs could therefore induce selective killing of cancer cells, opening several therapeutic opportunities. Recent data suggest that the stress-related scaffold protein AAC-11 (anti-apoptosis clone 11, also known as Api5) is critically involved in cancer cells resistance to chemotherapies, metastatic potential and escape from the immune system.
Methods: We have developed inactivating peptides based on the fusion of a cell penetrating sequence and portions of the leucine-zipper domain of AAC-11, which functions as a protein-protein interaction module. These peptides induce cancer cells death, through the inhibition of protein-protein interactions between AAC-11 and its partners, while sparing normal cells. We now describe further characterization of our lead peptide, JRT39, which contains residues 377 to 379 of AAC-11 linked to the cell-penetrating peptide “penetratin”.
Results: In vitro, JRT39 causes cell death in a wide spectrum of cancer cell lines with IC50 ranging from 5 µM to 30 µM depending on tumor cell type. In particular, JRT39 showed selective efficacy towards primary cells from Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL) or Sézary syndrome (SS) patients, while sparing normal hematopoietic cells, with an IC50 of 5-15 µM. Mechanistically, JRT39 induces membranolysis of cancer cells through binding to p21-activated kinase 1 (PAK1) in AML or SS cells plasma membrane, where PAK1 is overexpressed. In addition, JRT39 exerted potent anti-tumor activity in vivo in disseminated or subcutaneous AML, APL (Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia) and SS-patient derived preclinical murine models. Preliminary pharmacokinetic studies revealed that JRT39 is stable in human serum and has a plasma half-life of ~1.5-2.5 hours after intravenous (IV) administration to dogs or cynomolgus monkeys, with concentration-time data fitting 2-compartment model. Finally, JRT39 was well tolerated at 5 and 10 mg/kg after single or repeated (daily) IV injections.
Conclusions: Combined, our preclinical data confirm that interfering with AAC-11-related survival pathways is a promising novel anticancer strategy and support the development of JRT39 for the treatment of cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE gamma9delta2 T lymphocytes have been shown to be directly cytotoxic against renal carcinoma cells. Lymphocytes T gammadelta can be selectively expanded in vivo with BrHPP (IPH1101, Phosphostim) and interleukin 2 (IL-2). A phase I Study was conducted in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) to determine the maximum-tolerated dose and safety of Innacell gammadelta, an autologous cell-therapy product based on gamma9delta2 T lymphocytes, in patients with mRCC. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN A 1-h intravenous infusion of gamma9delta2 T lymphocytes was administered alone during treatment cycle 1 and combined with a low dose of subcutaneous interleukin-2 (IL-2, 2 MIU/m2 from Day 1 to Day 7) in the two subsequent cycles (at 3-week intervals). The dose of gamma9delta2 T lymphocytes was escalated from 1 up to 8 x 10(9) cells. RESULTS Ten patients underwent a total of 27 treatment cycles. Immunomonitoring data demonstrate that gamma9delta2 T lymphocytes are initially cleared from the blood to reappear at the end of IL-2 administration. Dose-limiting toxicity occurred in one patient at the dose of 8 x 10(9) cells (disseminated intravascular coagulation). Other treatment-related adverse events (AEs) included mainly gastrointestinal disorders and flu-like symptoms (fatigue, pyrexia, rigors). Hypotension and tachycardia also occurred, especially with co-administered IL-2. Six patients showed stabilized disease. Time to progression was 25.7 weeks. CONCLUSION The data collected in ten patients with mRCC indicate that repeated infusions of Innacell gammadelta at different dose levels (up to 8 x 10(9) total cells), either alone or with IL-2 is well tolerated. These results are in favor of the therapeutic value of cell therapy with Innacell gammadelta for the treatment of cancers.

Abstract
gamma9delta2 T lymphocytes are non-conventional lymphocytes presenting a direct cytotoxic effect against a broad range of tumour targets. These cells also secrete inflammatory cytokines that can boost the other components of the immune system. In contrast to conventional CD8(+) T cells, the cytotoxic effect of gamma9delta2 T lymphocytes does not depend on the expression of major histocompatibility complex molecules by target tumour cells. INNACELL gammadeltatrade mark is a cell therapy product obtained by ex vivo amplification of mononuclear cells. The stimulation is achieved by a specific synthetic agonist of gamma9delta2 T lymphocytes, bromohydrin pyrophosphate (BrHPP). After a single stimulation with BrHPP, gamma9delta2 T lymphocytes are expanded for 2 weeks in a closed system in culture medium with interleukin-2 (IL-2). On day 15, cells are washed and harvested in 4% human serum albumin. In this manufacturing process, the total cell population is expanded by approximately 10-fold and gamma9delta2 T lymphocytes undergo a specific 1000-fold expansion, corresponding to a gamma9delta2 T lymphocyte enrichment of more than 70% at the end of the culture. This manufacturing process is much simpler than most current cellular therapy approaches using conventional CD8(+) T-cell lines or clones: there is no final or initial separation, no purification step and no use of feeder cells; the specific T-cell receptor-mediated signal provided by BrHPP is sufficient to trigger the IL-2-dependent expansion of the gamma9delta2 subset, which then becomes predominant in the cell culture in large amounts.

Abstract
3064 Background: The Vγ9Vd2 T (γd) blood lymphocyte subset has a strong cytotoxic potential and can be selectively activated with chemically-synthesized, structural analogues of non-conventional antigens like BrHPP (IPH1101). Their proliferation requires low dose of Interleukin-2 (IL-2). Methods: We developed several in vitro and in vivo models to assess the immunotherapeutic potential of IPH1101-activated γd cells: - Direct cytotoxicity assays on patient-derived primary tumor cell lines - Extensive pharmacodynamics in the non human primate (NHP) - Small scale in vitro amplification assays for IPH1101-sensitive patient pre-selection Then, two Phase I clinical trials were performed in solid tumor patients: - Autologous cell therapy with ex vivo IPH1101- expanded γd cells (1, 4 or 8.109 cells) - Direct administration of IPH1101 (200 to 1800 mg/m2 i.v.) and low dose IL-2 (106 U/m2 s.c.). Results: In NHP, IPH1101 and low dose IL-2 induce early pro-inflammatory cytokine release and dose-dependent γd cell amplification in peripheral blood. In vitro, mRCC tumor cells are efficiently and selectively killed by autologous γd cells. In Phase I clinical trials, both ex vivo expanded γd cells and IPH1101 were well tolerated. - Cell therapy-related AEs included mainly gastrointestinal disorders, flu-like symptoms and hypotension. Six patients showed stabilized disease. Median duration of stabilization was 25.7 weeks. 2 pts treated with 4.109 or 8.109 cells showed substantial tumor shrinkage at the 14-week evaluation (-22% and -48%, respectively). - When IPH1101 was administered with low dose of IL-2, a significant increase of blood γd T cells was observed (up to 240 times the basal values) and in terms of clinical activity assessment, among the evaluable mRCC population (n=15), 8 patients presented disease stabilization for more than 35 weeks, including 6 for more than 51 weeks. Conclusions: For the first time, a specific γd immunotherapy was fully developed and led to Phase I clinical trials. It has been found well tolerated. Encouraging signs of disease stabilisation in mRCC patients suggest that γd may have a role in the treatment of cancers resistant to conventional therapies. A phase 2 is ongoing in mRCC patients. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
2550 Background: Vγ9Vδ2 (γδ) T lymphocytes, a peripheral blood lymphocyte subset, have shown to be directly cytotoxic against renal carcinoma cells. Lymphocytes γδ can be selectively expanded ex vivo with BrHPP (Phosphostim) and IL-2. We conducted a phase I trial, to define the dose limiting toxicities (DLT), characterize the safety profile, the pharmacodynamics and potential efficacy. Methods: Patients (pts), with progressive mRCC, PS of 0–1 and no organ dysfunction, were included. A one hour iv infusion of IGD was administered alone at cycle 1, and combined with low dose of sc IL-2 (2 MIU/m2 d1 to d7) in the 2 subsequent cycles (every 3 weeks). IGD dose was escalated from 1, up to 8 billions cells (bil). Results: 10 mRCC pts were treated in the study at 3 IGD dose levels: 1 patient at 1 bil, 6 pts at 4 bil, 3 pts at 8 bil. One patient experienced a grade (G)3 hypotension (4 bil, cycle 3), and one patient presented reversible signs of biological disseminated intravascular coagulation (8 bil, cycle 2) graded as a serious adverse event and fulfilling a DLT criteria. At all doses the treatment was well tolerated during the product alone infusion (cycle 1). The most frequent type of adverse events presented was mild to moderate flue like symptomes as fever, chills and asthenia reported during the second and third cycles in the IL-2 combined cycles. Patients presented also gastrointestinal symptoms as nausea and vomiting of grade 1 or 2. Preliminary efficacy assessment evaluation shows: 2 pts were not evaluable, 3 pts were withdrawn for disease progression at 3, 8 and 11 weeks, 2 pts maintained a stable disease for 36 and 63 weeks, and 2 pts are still under follow up with a stable disease at >91 and >124 weeks post treatment. Of note, one patient showed a 19% decrease in tumour size and another one presented a significant pain decrease leading to quality of life improvement. One other patient recently treated, is still under follow-up without progression after >16 weeks post treatment. Conclusion: IGD in combination with sc low dose IL-2 is safe, well tolerated, and shows promising antitumor signs of efficacy. These results warrant further product evaluation in phase 2 clinical trials. [Table: see text]

Abstract
Vgamma9Vdelta2(+) cells represent the major population of gammadelta T cells in primate blood and react in an MHC-unrestricted fashion to a set of low m.w. nonpeptide phosphoantigens. Two types of structurally related agonists have been discovered so far: the natural phosphoantigens (hydroxydimethyl allyl-pyrophosphate or isopentenyl-pyrophosphate (IPP)) acting directly on Vgamma9Vdelta2(+) TCR and aminobisphosphonates, which block the mevalonate pathway in target cells, leading to accumulation of natural phosphoantigens that in turn activate Vgamma9Vdelta2(+) cells. We demonstrate in the cynomolgus monkey that Vgamma9Vdelta2 can be manipulated in vivo with bromohydrin pyrophosphate (BrHPP)/Phosphostim, a potent synthetic agonist for which the mechanism of action is similar to natural phosphoantigens. Although of very short half-life, injection of BrHPP leads to strong activation of Vgamma9Vdelta2, inducing production of a high level of Th1 cytokines. Combination of BrHPP with low-dose rhIL-2 induces specific amplification of effector-memory peripheral Vgamma9Vdelta2 in blood in a dose-dependant manner. This transient response returns to baseline within 10-15 days. Successive infusions of BrHPP and rhIL-2 induce less vigorous expansions, suggesting a progressive exhaustion of the response. As no toxicity is detected with or without IL-2, this scheme represents a promising immunotherapeutic strategy for induction of systemic Th1 cytokines and massive expansion of gammadelta T cell subset with antitumor and anti-infectious properties.

Abstract
B7-1 and B7-2 are costimulatory molecules expressed on antigen-presenting cells. The CD28/B7 costimulation pathway is critical for T-cell activation, proliferation, and Th polarization. Blocking both cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) and CD28 interactions with a CTLA-4/Ig fusion protein inhibits various immune-mediated processes in vivo, such as allograft rejection and autoimmunity. However, selective blockade of CD28 may represent a better strategy for immunosuppression than B7 blockade, because CTLA-4/B7 interactions have been shown to participate in the extinction of the T-cell receptor-mediated activation signal and to be required for the induction of immunologic tolerance. In addition, selective CD28 inhibition specifically decreases the activation of alloreactive and autoreactive T cells, but not the activation of T cells stimulated by exogenous antigens presented in the context of self major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. CD28 blockade cannot be obtained with anti-CD28 dimeric antibodies, which cluster their target and promote T-cell costimulation, whereas monovalent Fab fragments can block CD28 and reduce alloreactivity. In this study, we report the construction of a monovalent single-chain Fv antibody fragment from a high-affinity antihuman CD28 antibody (CD28.3) that blocked adhesion of T cells to cells expressing the CD28 receptor CD80. Genetic fusion with the long-lived serum protein alpha1-antitrypsin led to an extended half-life without altering its binding characteristics. The anti-CD28 fusion molecule showed biologic activity as an immuno-suppressant by inhibiting T-cell activation and proliferation in a mixed lymphocyte reaction.

Abstract
Immunosuppression with B7 antagonists might have 2 opposite effects: reducing T-cell costimulation through CD28 but also preventing CTLA-4 from transmitting its negative regulatory signal. We therefore hypothesized that a selective blockade of CD28 might be qualitatively different from blocking B7. It was previously reported that CD28 modulation prolongs allograft survival in the rat and reverses induction of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in mice. However, whether CD28 or B7 blockade results in similar immunosuppression on alloimmune and self-restricted responses to soluble antigens has not yet been investigated. Here, we addressed this issue in vitro with antagonist anti-CD28 Fab fragments and in vivo using the modulating anti-rat JJ319 monoclonal antibody. As in the inhibition of B7 with CTLA4 immunoglobulin, anti-CD28 Fab fragments inhibited allogenic T-cell proliferation in mixed cultures. In vivo modulation of CD28 blocked the expansion of alloreactive T cells and promoted their apoptosis. In contrast, selective blockade of CD28 did not modify T-cell proliferative responses and antibody production to soluble antigens, whereas blocking B7 with CTLA4 immunoglobulin did. Our data show that blocking CD28, while leaving CTLA4-B7 interactions undisturbed, inhibits alloreactive CD4+ T-cell expansion but does not modify the response to nominal antigens presented in the context of a self-major histocompatibility complex. That B7 engagement is needed for self-restricted responses whereas engagement of CD28 is not essential adds to the suggestion that another unidentified ligand of B7 might deliver a costimulatory signal in the absence of CD28.

Abstract
PURPOSE We established a primate model to investigate the effects of the antileukocyte function associated antigen 1 (CD 11a) mAb odulimomab (Imtix-Sangstad, Lyon, France) for preventing renal ischemia-reperfusion injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS We randomly divided 34 Macaca cynomolgus monkeys into groups 1 and 2, which received a renal autograft after 2 hours of cold ischemia, and groups 3 and 4, which received the autograft after 24 hours of cold ischemia. Before cold ischemia all harvested kidneys were subjected to 30 to 45 minutes of warm ischemia. Groups 1 and 3 monkeys were treated with an antileukocyte function associated antigen 1 mAb before cold ischemia and then for 3 days, while groups 2 and 4 monkeys received an IgG1 isotype control. In all groups renal function was investigated before warm ischemia and 72 hours after reperfusion. Serum creatinine and the leukocyte count were determined daily. Histological studies were done and lactoferrin was measured in the autotransplanted kidney 72 hours after reperfusion. RESULTS A decrease in renal function was shown after 2 hours of cold ischemia with tubular necrosis and mild cell infiltration, while after 24 hours of cold ischemia there was severe renal failure with tubular and glomerular necrosis, and leukocyte infiltration. A significant improvement in renal function and decrease in kidney lactoferrin content was evident in group 1 compared to group 2 at 72 hours, while no significant difference was noted in groups 3 and 4. No difference in histological patterns was evident in treated and untreated animals. CONCLUSIONS This study provides evidence for the validity of this ischemia-reperfusion injury model in primates. The protective effects of antileukocyte function associated antigen 1 mAb on renal injury was not as dramatic as in rodent models but a significant improvement in renal function was observed in treated animals after 2 hours of cold ischemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Induction treatments with anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) in solid organ transplantation may enhance the efficacy of maintenance immunosuppressive therapy. Since ATG can trigger Fas (CD95) mediated T cell apoptosis, a process antagonized in vitro by corticosteroids, an important issue is whether corticosteroids could interfere with T cell depleting and immunosuppressive activities of ATG. METHODS MHC mismatched skin allografts were performed on cynomolgus and rhesus monkeys treated with ATG (20 mg/kg) associated or not with 6-methylprednisolone (10 mg/kg). RESULTS There was no difference between the two immunosuppressive regimens as regards the intensity and duration of peripheral T lymphocyte depletion and the appearance of anti-ATG antibodies. Skin graft survival was increased in monkeys treated with 6-methylprednisolone as compared with ATG alone. CONCLUSIONS In vivo, corticosteroids do not interfere with ATG ability to induce massive T cell depletion and to delay skin allograft rejection in non-human primates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In a pig liver transplantation model, we compared the effects of Celsior solution (CS), an extracellular preservation solution, with Viaspan (University of Wisconsin solution, UW) on graft function and animal survival. METHODS Pig livers were flushed with either CS or UW solution and cold-stored for 12 hr (group 1) or for 8 to 10 hr (group 2). Grafts were transplanted orthotopically. Intrahepatic reduced and oxidized glutathione and adenine nucleotides were evaluated 1 hr after reperfusion. Liver function of transplanted animals was monitored for up to 6 days by serum transaminases, total bilirubin, purine nucleoside phosphorylase, and prothrombin levels. RESULTS In group 1, all animals died within 24 hr after reperfusion regardless of the preservation solution used. In group 2, no significant difference was seen in survival between the CS (72%) and the UW (67%) groups 6 days after transplantation, and there were no statistically significant differences in the biochemical data. There were no differences in histological evaluation of the livers at the time of death or killing of the animals between the CS and UW groups. CONCLUSION Within the limits of this pilot study, CS is equivalent to UW in terms of graft function and animal survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mechanisms of action of polyclonal antithymocyte globulins (ATGs) are still poorly understood and the selection of doses used in different clinical applications (prevention or treatment of acute rejection in organ allografts, treatment of graft-versus-host disease, or conditioning for allogeneic stem cell transplantation) remains empirical. Low T-cell counts are usually achieved in peripheral blood during ATG treatment but the extent of T-cell depletion in lymphoid tissues is unknown. METHODS Experiments were conducted in cynomolgus monkeys using Thymoglobuline at low (1 mg/kg), high (5 mg/kg), and very high (20 mg/kg) doses. RESULTS ATG treatment induced a dose-dependent lymphocytopenia in the blood and a dose-dependent T-cell depletion in spleen and lymph nodes but not in the thymus, indicating a limited access of ATG to this organ. T-cell apoptosis in peripheral lymphoid tissues was the main mechanism of depletion. Remaining T cells in peripheral lymphoid organs were coated by antibodies and had down-modulated surface expression of CD2, CD3, CD4, and CD8 molecules, whereas their responsiveness in mixed leukocyte reaction was impaired. The survival of MHC-mismatched skin and heart allografts was prolonged in a dose-dependent fashion, despite the occurrence of a strong anti-ATG antibody response resulting in the rapid clearance of circulating ATGs. CONCLUSION The results indicate that T-cell depletion is achieved rapidly and primarily in peripheral lymphoid tissues at high ATG dosage. Short ATG treatments could therefore be clinically evaluated when major peripheral T-cell depletion is required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Occasionally, conventional closure of an intestinal wall defect (fistula) is not possible. The development of a biologic material that can be used in this setting would solve a significant clinical problem. We hypothesized that a collagen patch (connective tissue matrix [CTM]) designed to allow tissue regeneration was such a material. METHODS To test this hypothesis, we performed a laparotomy on 75 male Sprague-Dawley rats (experiment A) and removed 25% of the anterior cecal wall (1 cm in diameter) to compare intestinal wound healing in four situations: (1) control (no repair), (2) fibrin glue repair, (3) primary repair, and (4) repair with CTM (human placental bilayer, types I, III, and IV). Animals were killed at 1, 2, 4, and 6 weeks. Healing was graded by bursting pressure expressed in millimeters of mercury, histologic score (0 to 4), and mortality rates. After this, we used the same protocol to remove 80% of the cecal wall (1.5 x 2.0 cm) in 19 animals (experiment B) to compare (5) fibrin glue repair alone with (6) CTM repair in a situation in which the defect was too large for primary repair. RESULTS CTM repair of a lethal cecal wall defect (experiment A) is equivalent to either primary repair or fibrin glue repair. When the defect is too large for primary repair (experiment B), repair with fibrin glue also does not work. However, in this same setting, CTM repair is successful (p < 0.00001). CONCLUSIONS Intestinal wall defects not suitable for conventional closure can be repaired successfully with a collagen patch, with histologic characteristics similar to those seen with primary repair.

Abstract
The capacity of central nervous system (CNS) axons to elongate from the spinal cord to the periphery throughout a tubular implant joining the ventral horn of the spinal cord to an avulsed root was investigated in a model of brachial plexus injury. The C5-C7 roots were avulsed by controlled traction and the C6 root was bridged to the spinal cord over a 3 mm gap by the use of a collagen cylinder containing or not containing an autologous nerve segment, or an autologous nerve graft. Nine months later, the functionality and the quality of the axonal regrowth was evaluated by electrophysiology, retrograde labelling of neurons, and histological examination of the gap area. A normal electromyogram of the biceps was observed in all animals where the C6 root was bridged to the spinal cord. The mean average amplitude of the motor evoked potentials was comprised between 17.51 +/- 12.03 microV in animals repaired with a collagen cylinder, and 27.83 +/- 22.62 microV when a nerve segment was introduced in the tube. In nonrepaired animals spontaneous potentials reflecting a muscle denervation were observed at electromyography. Retrograde labelling indicated that a mean number of 58.88 +/- 37.89 spinal cord neurons have reinnervated the biceps in animals repaired with a tube versus 78.38 +/- 62.11 when a nerve segment was introduced in the channel, and 97.25 +/- 56.23 in nerve grafting experiments. Analyses of the repair site showed the presence of numerous myelinated regenerating axons. In conclusion, our results indicate that spinal cord neurons can regenerate through tubular implants over a 3 mm gap, and that this axonal regrowth appeared as effective as in nerve grafting experiments. The combination of an implant and a nerve segment did not significantly increase the regeneration rate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the ability of human collagen biomaterials to secure colonic anastomoses in dogs and to evaluate the biocompatibility of anastomotic protection patches (APP). DESIGN Experimental open study. SETTING Experimental research centre, France. MATERIAL 21 mongrel dogs randomised into three groups of 7 each. INTERVENTION Standard transverse colonic end-to-end anastomoses were secured with two-layer oxidised collagen I + III sponge covered with thin crosslinked collagen IV film (APP 1) glued around the suture (n = 7); two-layer oxidised collagen I + III sponge covered with thin non-crosslinked collagen I + III film patch (APP 2) (n = 7); or sealed by fibrin sealant (n = 7), which acted as a controls. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Gross examination, radiological control (barium enemas), and microscopic examination on day 35 postoperatively. RESULTS Gross clinical and radiological examinations on day 35 showed normal wound healing in all but one dog in which the anastomoses had occluded by day 16. There was significantly less stricturing with the APP 2 patch (p < 0.05 compared with the controls). Microscopic examination showed complete absorption of the APP 2 patches as well as quicker mucosal and extracellular matrix repair than controls. The APP 1 patch gave the best healing of the muscular layer but did not reduce anastomosis stricturing, and was not totally absorbed. CONCLUSIONS Collagen supporting devices do not alter healing of the large bowel. Encircling patches do not increase the number of adhesions or the rate of anastomotic stricturing and a thin fibrillar collagen I + III dense layer may even improve it. The speed of absorption of the patch depends on the type of dense collagen film. These results argue for a prospective clinical evaluation in humans.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate tolerance for this middle-ear implant and its effectiveness in eardrum healing under various pathologic conditions. SETTING A 12- to 18-month follow-up case series at an institutional referral center offering hospitalized care. PATIENTS Twenty-six eligible volunteers suffering from tympanic perforation or tympanic pocket retraction class II and III in Tos' classification. INTERVENTION Patients underwent implantation with the type IV collagen film (film called "MTY" from the French membrane tympanique). The surgical procedure was similar to those using the temporal aponeurosis or the tragal perichondrium. OUTCOME MEASURE Anatomic criteria was determined by otoscopy, and functional audiometric criteria was determined by air-borne gap measurements and by effects on cochlear function. RESULTS Twenty-two of 26 patients were completely healed after 6 months, with no subsequent evolution. Nineteen of 26 subjects underwent a 1-year postoperative audiometric follow-up examination: 13 (68%) had an air-borne gap less than 10 dB, four (21%) had between 11 and 20 dB, and two (11%) had between 21 and 30 dB. Adverse effects included one patient whose MTY fell into the middle ear, three patients with transient myringitis, and one patient with otitis media with effusion. CONCLUSIONS A human type IV collagen film may be a possible alternative to autologous tissue in tympanic membrane reconstruction. This new biomaterial was tested on patients with various diseases common in clinical otology, and demonstrated a good biocompatibility of MTY in the different pathologic conditions of chronic otitis media. A future randomized, controlled trial will randomly allocate patients to receive either MTY collagen film or tissue from the temporal aponeurosis.

Abstract
An experimental study on the rat sciatic nerve was performed to evaluate nerve regeneration through a collagen guide and to study the effects of alpha-melanocytic stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) and basic fibroblast growth factor (b-FGF) in accelerating axonal elongation. After transection, nerves were repaired over a 7 mm gap using a placental collagen type IV guide. The channel was filled with either a b-FGF solution or an alpha-MSH solution or was produced with b-FGF incorporated into the guide. Four weeks later, only groups in which b-FGF had been injected or incorporated displayed a significant somatosensory evoked potential response. Histological and quantitative analysis of nerve fibres confirmed the existence of nerve continuity in groups receiving an alpha-MSH solution or a channel containing b-FGF. These results demonstrate that alpha-MSH in solution and b-FGF incorporated into a collagen type IV channel enhance peripheral nerve regeneration. However, at 4 weeks, only b-FGF (3 ng) restores functional activity.

Abstract
Many substances have been tried as possible dural substitutes, and different tissues and materials have been evaluated for use in dural repair; however, an entirely satisfactory solution still remains to be found. The authors report an experimental study involving the closure of dural defects in dogs with a new biomaterial, resorbable bilayered human placental collagen, using two types of collagen material. These include a collagen bilayered dural substitute made of oxidized type III + I collagen layer covered by a type IV oxidized collagen film (collagen dural substitute I) and a collagen bilayered dural substitute made of oxidized type III + I collagen layer covered by a type III + I collagen film (collagen dural substitute II). Macroscopic and histological examination, performed over a period of between 15 and 180 days after implantation, showed the resorption of collagen graft and formation of a neomembrane that looked like a neodura within 3 months. No infection and no cerebrospinal fluid fistulae were noticed. Nevertheless, one slight cerebromembranous adhesion was found with collagen dural substitute II. The authors suggest that human resorbable collagen biomaterial could be used as a very satisfactory dural substitute.

Abstract
Using human type IV and type I + III collagens and a new, nontoxic cross-linking procedure, we have developed a cell-free bilayered human dermal substitute for organotypic culture and transplantation of human skin keratinocytes. We have studied the formation of the basement membrane, and the differentiation of keratinocytes grown on the type IV collagen layer of this dermal substitute, in vitro and after grafting onto nude mice. These studies demonstrated the formation of essential constituents of the basement membrane in culture: hemidesmosomes and deposition of extracellular matrix on the top of the type IV collagen were observed as early as 6 days after plating of human keratinocytes. Although the keratinocytes formed a well-organized multilayered epithelium, they exhibited limited differentiation when grown submerged in liquid medium. However, the multilayered sheet obtained after 14 days in submerged culture was composed of a regular basal cell layer, several nucleated suprabasal cell layers containing granular cells, and several dense, anucleated cell layers. The grafting experiments have shown a good biocompatibility of the dermal substitute. It is repopulated by fibroblasts, newly synthesized collagen, vessels, and a few mononuclear cells. At Day 14 after grafting, the type IV collagen layer was still present and very dense, and the basement membrane appeared as in culture, with numerous well-structured hemidesmosomes and deposition of extracellular matrix resembling lamina densa. At Day 55 after transplantation, even if the epidermal graft did not exhibit all the characteristics of the normal epidermis in vivo, it was very close to it. At this stage, the basement membrane was complete, with structures clearly indicative of anchoring fibrils. This new dermal substitute offers many advantages. It is stable and easy to handle. Its production is standardized. The oxidation induced by periodic acid led to a nontoxic cross-linked matrix. This dermal substitute is the first one entirely composed of human collagens. The type I + III collagen underlayer is reorganized when grafted. It supports a type IV collagen top layer which offers an excellent substrate for keratinocytes, favors their anchorage, and favors the formation of the basement membrane in vitro. This dermal substitute could be useful for wound coverage or as an in vitro model for toxicological and pharmacological studies.

Abstract
Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) was purified to homogeneity from human placental tissue on a semi-large scale. Placental bFGF consists of two proteins of apparent molecular masses 16,000 and 18,000 dalton, as determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under non-reducing conditions. Microsequence analysis showed that both proteins have the same N-terminal sequence Pro-Ala-Leu-Pro-Glu-Asp-Gly-Gly-Ser-Gly-Ala-Phe..., which is identical with that of (1-146) bFGF extracted from human brain. After reduction by dithiothreitol or mercaptoethanol, placental bFGF appears as a single protein of 16,000 dalton. The reduced protein displays the same ability to stimulate the proliferation of CCL39 fibroblasts as the non-reduced doublet. These data indicate that bFGF extracted from placental tissue consists of two proteins with different apparent molecular masses which do not differ in their N-terminal sequence but in their oxidation state.

Abstract
Various collagens were extracted and purified from human placenta after partial pepsin digestion. We prepared type III + I (57:43), enriched type I, type III, and type IV collagens on an industrial level, and studied their biological properties with MRC5 fibroblast cells. Using the process of contraction of a hydrated collagen lattice described by Bell, we found tha the contraction rate was dependent on collagen type composition. The contraction was faster and more pronounced with pepsinized type I collagen than with pepsinized type III + I (57:43) collagen; the lowest rate was obtained with the pepsinized type III collagen. Using a new technique of collagen cross-linking, a gel was made with type IV collagen. This cross-linking procedure, based on partial oxidation of sugar residues and hydroxylysine by periodic acid, followed by neutralization, resulted in an increased number of natural cross-link bridges between oxidized and nonoxidized collagen molecules, without internal toxic residues. The fibroblasts were unable to contract type IV/IVox collagen gels. The type IV/IVox collagen gel was transparent and its amorphous ultrastructure lacked any visible striated fibrils. Fibroblast cells exhibited atypical behavior in these type IV/IVox collagen gels as evidenced by optical and electron microscopy. The penetration of fibroblasts could be measured. Fibroblasts penetrated faster in type IV/IVox collagen gels than in untreated type III + I collagen gels. The lowest rate of penetration was obtained with cross-linked type III + I gels. Fibroblast proliferation was similar on untreated or cross-linked type III + I collagen gels and slightly increased on type IV/IVox collagen gels, suggesting that this cross-linking procedure was not toxic.

Abstract
The different collagen types were extracted sequentially, by 4 M guanidinium chloride and pepsin, from human foetal and normal and osteoarthritic adult articular cartilage. They were characterized by electrophoresis and immunoblotting. Most of the collagenous proteins present in articular cartilage from young human foetuses were solubilized: almost 40% of the total collagen was extracted in the native form with 4 M guanidinium chloride. Type VI collagen was detected in this fraction as high-molecular-mass chains (185-220 kDa) and a low-molecular-mass chain (140 kDa). Type II, IX and XI collagens were also present, but were extracted more extensively by pepsin digestion. Comparative analysis of normal and osteoarthritic cartilage from adults reveals some major differences: an increase in the solubility of the collagen and modifications of soluble collagen types in osteoarthritic cartilage. Furthermore, type VI collagen was present at a higher concentration in guanidinium chloride extracts of osteoarthritic cartilage than those of normal tissue. This finding was corroborated by electron microscopic observations of the same samples: abundant (100 nm) periodic fibrils were observed in the disorganized pericellular capsule of cloned cells in osteoarthritic cartilage. In normal tissues the pericellular zone was more compact and contained only a few such banded fibrils. The differences in the collagen types solubilized from normal and osteoarthritic cartilage, although corresponding to a minor proportion of the total collagen, demonstrate that important modifications in chondrocyte metabolism and in the collagenous network do occur in degenerated cartilage.

Abstract
Minor disulfide-bonded collagen (previously termed X1-X7 and now called type IX collagen) was isolated from foetal calf cartilage after pepsin treatment. At least three native fractions, containing, respectively, the X1X2X3, X4, and X5X6X7 chains, were separated; and from further biochemical and physicochemical experiments (differential scanning calorimetry, electrical birefringence, rotary shadowing), we propose a tentative model for their organization within a parent molecule. X1 and X2 are molecules composed of three chains of apparent Mr 62,000 and 50,000 linked by interchain disulfide bonds and containing pepsin-sensitive regions. The cleavage of at least three of these sites, present within X2, gives rise to the X3 and X5X6X7 fractions composed of molecules 80-100 nm and 40-55 nm in length, respectively. The X5X6X7 fraction is not digested by pepsin at 30 degrees C owing to its high thermal stability (certainly explained by its high hydroxyproline + proline content). This organization is in good accordance with that proposed for chicken cartilage type IX collagen; differences could only exist in the number and (or) the location of the pepsin-sensitive sites.
