Abstract
Dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinases (DYRKs) and cdc2-like kinases (CLKs) are implicated in the onset and progression of Down syndrome (DS) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). DYRK1A has emerged as a possible link between amyloid-β (Aβ) and Tau, the major pathological proteins in AD. We here assessed the neuroprotective potential of a novel inhibitor of DYRKs/CLKs. The Leucettine L41, acting preferentially on DYRK1A, was tested in Aβ25-35-treated mice, a nontransgenic model of AD-like toxicity. We co-injected intracerebroventricularly oligomeric Aβ25-35 peptide and L41 in Swiss male mice. After 7 days, they were submitted to behavioral tests addressing spatial and non-spatial, short- and long-term memories. The oxidative stress, apoptotic markers, kinases involved in Tau phosphorylation, and synaptic integrity were analyzed by Western blot and ELISA in the hippocampus. L41, tested at 0.4, 1.2, 4 µg, prevented the Aβ25-35-induced memory deficits in the Y-maze, passive avoidance and water-maze tests, with the most active dose being 4 µg. The inhibitor prevented the Aβ25-35-induced oxidative stress, as revealed by measures of lipid peroxidation levels and reactive oxygen species accumulation, and abolished Aβ25-35-induced expression of pro-apoptotic markers. L41 prevented the Aβ25-35-induced decrease of AKT activation and increase of glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) activation, resulting in a decrease of Tau phosphorylation. Finally, L41 restored Aβ25-35-reduced levels of synaptic markers. The novel DYRK1A-preferential inhibitor L41 therefore prevented Aβ25-35-induced memory impairments and neurotoxicity in the mouse hippocampus. These in vivo data highlighted particularly DYRK1A as a major kinase involved in Aβ pathology and suggested therapeutic developments for DYRK1A inhibitors in AD.

Abstract
The main objective of the present study was to establish whether the mixed σ₁/muscarinic ligand ANAVEX2-73, shown to be neuroprotective in Alzheimer's disease (AD) models in vivo and currently in clinical phase I/IIa, could have the ability to reduce the appearance of hyperphosphorylated Tau and amyloid-β₁₋₄₂ (Aβ₁₋₄₂ in the Aβ₂₅₋₃₅ mouse model of AD. We therefore first confirmed that Aβ₂₅₋₃₅ injection induced hyperphosphorylation of Tau protein, by showing that it rapidly decreased Akt activity and activated glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) in the mouse hippocampus. Second, we showed that the kinase activation, and resulting Tau alteration, directly contributed to the amyloid toxicity, as co-administration of the selective GSK-3β inhibitor 2-thio(3-iodobenzyl)-5-(1-pyridyl)-[1,3,4]-oxidiazole blocked both Tau phosphorylation and Aβ₂₅₋₃₅-induced memory impairments. Third, we analyzed the ANAVEX2-73 effect on Tau phosphorylation and activation of the related kinase pathways (Akt and GSK-3β). And fourth, we also addressed the impact of the drug on Aβ₂₅₋₃₅-induced Aβ₁₋₄₂ seeding and observed that the compound significantly blocked the increase in Aβ₁₋₄₂ and C99 levels in the hippocampus, suggesting that it may alleviate amyloid load in AD models. The comparison with PRE-084, a selective and reference σ₁ receptor agonist, and xanomeline, a muscarinic ligand presenting similar profile as ANAVEX2-73 on M1 and M2 subtypes, confirmed that both muscarinic and σ₁ targets are involved in the ANAVEX2-73 effects. The drug, acting synergistically on both targets, but with moderate affinity, presents a promising pharmacological profile.

Abstract
The highly diverse deposition pattern displayed by systemic amyloidoses, sometimes within the same amyloid disease, remains unexplained. The localized medin (AMed) amyloidosis develops from the precursor protein lactadherin and deposits in the media of the thoracic aorta in almost all individuals above 50 years of age. Given its high prevalence in the population, and the fact that systemic amyloidoses also deposit in the aorta, led us to investigate whether AMed amyloid could influence the tissue distribution of serum amyloid A derived (AA) amyloidosis. Seven aortas from patients with diagnosed systemic AA amyloidosis were investigated. Four displayed partial co-localization between medin and AA aggregates when examined with double-labeling immunofluorescence. Furthermore, in vitro studies showed that AMed amyloid-like fibrils promote the aggregation of protein AA into fibrils. The findings indicate that the highly frequent "senile" amyloidoses may have the potential to initiate fibril formation of the more uncommon amyloidoses by a cross-seeding mechanism.

Abstract
The hypersensitive response (HR) in plants is a programmed cell death that is commonly associated with disease resistance. A novel mutation in Arabidopsis, hlm1, which causes aberrant regulation of cell death, manifested by a lesion-mimic phenotype and an altered HR, segregated as a single recessive allele. Broad-spectrum defense mechanisms remained functional or were constitutive in the mutant plants, which also exhibited increased resistance to a virulent strain of Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato. In response to avirulent strains of the same pathogen, the hlm1 mutant showed differential abilities to restrict bacterial growth, depending on the avirulence gene expressed by the pathogen. The HLM1 gene encodes a cyclic nucleotide-gated channel, CNGC4. Preliminary study of the HLM1/CNGC4 gene pro-duct in Xenopus oocytes (inside-out patch-clamp technique) showed that CNGC4 is permeable to both K(+) and Na(+) and is activated by both cGMP and cAMP. HLM1 gene expression is induced in response to pathogen infection and some pathogen-related signals. Thus, HLM1 might constitute a common downstream component of the signaling pathways leading to HR/resistance.

Abstract
The vacuolar calmodulin (CaM)-stimulated Ca(2+)-ATPase, BCA1p, in cauliflower (Brassica oleracea) has an extended N terminus, which was suggested to contain a CaM-binding domain (S. Malmström, P. Askerlund, M.G. Palmgren [1997] FEBS Lett 400: 324-328). The goal of the present study was to determine the role of the N terminus in regulating BCA1p. Western analysis using three different antisera showed that the N terminus of BCA1p is cleaved off by trypsin and that the N terminus contains the CaM-binding domain. Furthermore, the expressed N terminus binds CaM in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. A synthetic peptide corresponding to the CaM-binding domain of BCA1p (Ala-19 to Leu-43) strongly inhibited ATP-dependent Ca(2+) pumping by BCA1p in cauliflower low-density membranes, indicating that the CaM-binding region of BCA1p also has an autoinhibitory function. The expressed N terminus of BCA1p and a synthetic peptide (Ala-19 to Met-39) were good substrates for phosphorylation by protein kinase C. Sequencing of the phosphorylated fusion protein and peptide suggested serine-16 and/or serine-28 as likely targets for phosphorylation. Phosphorylation of serine-28 had no effect on CaM binding to the alanine-19 to methionine-39 peptide. Our results demonstrate the regulatory importance of the N terminus of BCA1p as a target for CaM binding, trypsin cleavage, and phosphorylation, as well as its importance as an autoinhibitory domain.

Abstract
A cDNA, BCA1, encoding a calmodulin-stimulated Ca2+-ATPase in the vacuolar membrane of cauliflower (Brassica oleracea) was isolated based on the sequence of tryptic peptides derived from the purified protein. The BCA1 cDNA shares sequence identity with animal plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPases and Arabidopsis thaliana ACA1, that encodes a putative Ca2+ pump in the chloroplast envelope. In contrast to the plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPases of animal cells, which have a calmodulin-binding domain situated in the carboxy-terminal end of the molecule, the calmodulin-binding domain of BCA1 is situated at the amino terminus of the enzyme.

Abstract
A possible effect of chronic carbon disulfide exposure on the optic nerve was studied by giving the Farnsworth Munsell 100-Hue Test for color discrimination to 62 exposed and 40 nonexposed men. Carbon disulfide exposure did not relate to specific pattern defects in color discrimination, but impaired color discrimination occurred significantly more often in the exposed group than among the referents. The abnormal findings suggest an impairment in the receptiveness of the ganglion cells or demyelination of the optic nerve fibers.

Abstract
A 3-year-old boy and a 2-year-old girl with infantile genetic agranulocytosis have been studied by in vitro cloning of bone marrow cells in agar culture. The patients display a normal concentration of colony forming cells and the morphological maturation is identical with that of control marrow cultured in vitro. The marrow cells of the patients show some degree of auto-stimulation indicating that endogenous production of colony stimulating factor is operating. As an inverse relationship is expected between the peripheral neutrophil count and the percentage of marrow colony forming cells in S-phase a high percentage was expected. On the contrary, we find that the percentage of colony forming cells in S-phase is extremely low indicating a genetic unresponsiveness of granulopoietic precursor cells to feed back regulation in infantile genetic agranulocytosis.
