Abstract
Ozonation of wastewater containing bromide (Br-) forms highly toxic organic bromine. The effectiveness of ozonation in mitigating wastewater toxicity is minimal. Simultaneous application of ozone (O3) (5 mg/L) and ferrate(VI) (Fe(VI)) (10 mg-Fe/L) reduced cytotoxicity and genotoxicity towards mammalian cells by 39.8% and 71.1% (pH 7.0), respectively, when the wastewater has low levels of Br-. This enhanced reduction in toxicity can be attributed to increased production of reactive iron species Fe(IV)/Fe(V) and reactive oxygen species (•OH) that possess higher oxidizing ability. When wastewater contains 2 mg/L Br-, ozonation increased cytotoxicity and genotoxicity by 168%-180% and 150%-155%, respectively, primarily due to the formation of organic bromine. However, O3/Fe(VI) significantly (p < 0.05) suppressed both total organic bromine (TOBr), BrO3-, as well as their associated toxicity. Electron donating capacity (EDC) measurement and precursor inference using Orbitrap ultra-high resolution mass spectrometry found that Fe(IV)/Fe(V) and •OH enhanced EDC removal from precursors present in wastewater, inhibiting electrophilic substitution and electrophilic addition reactions that lead to organic bromine formation. Additionally, HOBr quenched by self-decomposition-produced H2O2 from Fe(VI) also inhibits TOBr formation along with its associated toxicity. The adsorption of Fe(III) flocs resulting from Fe(VI) decomposition contributes only minimally to reducing toxicity. Compared to ozonation alone, integration of Fe(VI) with O3 offers improved safety for treating wastewater with varying concentrations of Br-.

Abstract
The ammonia/chlorine oxidation process can greatly degrade PPCPs in water. However, its effect on molecular transformations of natural organic matter (NOM) and effluent organic matter (EfOM) are still poorly understood. In this study, molecular transformations of NOM and EfOM occurring during ammonia/chlorine were explored and compared with those occurred during chlorination, using spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Phenolic and highly unsaturated aliphatic compounds together with aliphatic compounds were found to be predominant in both NOM and EfOM samples, all of which were significantly degraded after two processes. The ammonia/chlorine process led to greater decreases in the molecular weights of such components but lower reductions in aromaticity. Compared with chlorination, ammonia/chlorine was found to be more likely to degrade compounds while remaining fluorophores or chromophores. The CH(N)O(S) precursors were found to be similar for both processes but their products were quite different. The CH(N)O(S) precursors that only found in ammonia/chlorine had higher molecular weights and greater degrees of oxidation but lower degrees of saturation. In contrast, the unique CH(N)O(S) products that only found in ammonia/chlorine exhibited lower molecular weights and lower degrees of oxidation degrees together with higher degrees of saturation. Lower total abundance of chlorinated byproducts was found by ammonia/chlorine compared with chlorination, although the former process provided a richer diversity. In all water samples, chlorinated byproducts were mainly generated by substitution reactions during ammonia/chlorine and chlorination. Overall, the findings of this study could provide new insights into the transformations of NOM and EfOM induced by ammonia/chlorine and chlorination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endometriosis is associated with systemic metabolic indicators, including body mass index (BMI), glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism, while the association between metabolic indexes and the occurrence and assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcome of endometriosis is unclear. We aimed to evaluate the characteristics of systemic metabolic indexes of endometriosis patients with infertility and their effects on pregnancy outcome after ART treatment. METHODS A retrospective cohort study involve 412 endometriosis patients and 1551 controls was conducted. Primary outcome was metabolic indexes, and secondary measures consisted of the influence of metabolic indexes on the number of retrieved oocytes and ART outcomes. RESULTS Endometriosis patients had higher insulin (INS) [6.90(5.10-9.50) vs 6.50(4.80-8.90) μU/mL, P = 0.005]. A prediction model for endometriosis combining the number of previous pregnancies, CA125, fasting blood glucose (Glu) and INS, had a sensitivity of 73.9%, specificity of 67.8% and area under curve (AUC) of 0.77. There were no significant differences in ART outcomes and complications during pregnancy. The serum levels of Glu before pregnancy were associated with GDM both in endometriosis group (aOR 12.95, 95% CI 1.69-99.42, P = 0.014) and in control group (aOR 4.15, 95% CI 1.50-11.53, P = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS We found serum Glu is related to the number of retrieved oocytes in control group, serum INS is related to the number of retrieved oocytes in endometriosis group, while serum Glu and INS before pregnancy are related to the occurrence of GDM in two groups. A prediction model based on metabolic indexes was established, representing a promising non-invasive method to predict endometriosis patients with known pregnancy history.

Abstract
Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a non-malignant condition mainly manifesting as a proliferation of histiocytes in lymph nodes. Endotracheal RDD (ERDD) with an acute onset presentation is extremely rare. There are few case reports of ERDD mainly concerning its pathology, diagnostics and bronchoscopic treatment, without providing sufficient clinical information from a comprehensive perspective. As a novel and challenging technique, tracheal resection and reconstruction (TRR) with spontaneous-ventilation video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (SV-VATS) has been reported as feasible and safe in highly selected patients, but few centres have shared their experience with this approach. This case-based discussion includes not only practical issues in the management of a life-threatening ERDD patient, but also specialists' views on the management of acute obstructive airway, and the surgeons' reflection on TRR with SV-VATS.

Abstract
During chlorination of reclaimed water, the dose of chlorine used can influence the formation of chlorinated disinfection by-products (Cl-DBPs). We used non-targeted screening by Orbitrap mass spectrometry to identify Cl-DBPs in samples of chlorinated reclaimed water, and found that chlorination was likely to form slightly oxidized unsaturated aliphatic compounds and polycyclic aromatic compounds. Increasing the chlorine dose increased the proportion of polycyclic aromatic Cl-DBPs containing one chlorine atom (Cl1-DBPs) and highly oxidized unsaturated aliphatic Cl-DBPs containing two chlorine atoms (Cl2-DBPs). In addition, increasing the chlorine dose first decreased and then increased the proportion of Cl1-DBPs with aromatic index values >0.5 and increased the proportion of Cl2-DBPs with aromatic index values <0.5. Increasing the chlorine dose increased double bond equivalent minus oxygen values of Cl1-DBPs and decreased the double bond equivalent minus oxygen values of Cl2-DBPs, while the nominal oxidant state of carbon decreased for Cl1-DBPs and increased for Cl2-DBPs. In considering the possible precursors of Cl-DBPs and their reaction pathways, substitution reactions occurred more readily with aliphatic compounds and addition reactions occurred more readily with aromatic precursors. When the chlorine dose is increased, more Cl2-DBPs may be formed by substitution. Overall, the chlorine dose influences Cl-DBP formation and composition and should be taken into account during water treatment.

Abstract
Tannic acid is ubiquitously present in various simulated and real water sources and in wastewater. Various chlorinated disinfection byproducts (Cl-DBPs) are generated via reactions with tannic acid during disinfection with chlorine. We used high-resolution mass spectrometry in combination with our self-developed halogen extraction code to selectively identify Cl-DBPs. Our strategy enabled successful detection of 35 Cl-DBP formulas formed by chlorination of tannic acid, and we identified 26 of these structures. The structures of 17 novel Cl-DBPs are firstly reported here. The reaction pathways of these Cl-DBPs were tentatively proposed. These Cl-DBPs are likely to be generated during chlorination at various chlorine doses, from 0.0 to 10.0 mg-Cl2/L, and 14 of the 26 Cl-DBPs were detected in simulated drinking water, which implies a relatively high probability of incidence. Quantitative structure-activity relationship toxicity analyses predicted that most of these Cl-DBPs would exhibit much higher acute toxicity than the common DBPs trichloromethane and monochloroacetic acid and that some of these compounds would induce developmental toxicity and be mutagenic, which further emphasizes that these Cl-DBPs should raise concerns. This study broadens our understanding of the Cl-DBPs formed from tannic acid and should prompt wider application of our analytical strategy in environmental matrices.

Abstract
Ozonation is widely used during water treatment but can generate a variety of toxic disinfection byproducts, especially in the presence of bromide. In the present study, our halogen extraction code was extended and modified to identify bromine isotopic patterns and combined with the R package MFAssignR in selectively identifying brominated disinfection byproducts (Br-DBPs) from high resolution mass spectra. In total, 127 Br-DBPs formed from a Suwannee River natural organic matter (SRNOM) solution were successfully detected from tens of thousands of mass spectrometry peaks. Kendrick mass defect analysis and structural characterization identified 17 structures, 15 of which were identified as brominated carboxylic acids and firstly reported here. Computational model predictions indicated that these brominated carboxylic acids may possess high toxic potencies and raise valid concerns. The adapted halogen extraction code described in this study is a powerful tool for a wider application of analyzing Br-DBPs in complex water matrices and provides an effective technique to characterize and identify these compounds in future studies.

Abstract
Natural organic matter is a major source of precursors of hazardous chlorinated disinfection byproducts (Cl-DBPs) formed during water treatment, but the majority of Cl-DBPs are still unidentified. In this study, we used a self-written halogen extraction code to identify halogen isotopic patterns in combination with the R package MFAssignR, to identify Cl-DBPs from Orbitrap mass spectra. One hundred and eighty-nine Cl-DBPs were detected during chlorination of a Suwannee River natural organic matter solution, and the structures of 20 of these compounds are reported for the first time. Kendrick mass defect analysis and structural identification confirmed that chlorinated carboxylic acids are common and likely to form during chlorination. A toxicity prediction using quantitative structure-activity relationship models indicated that most of the chlorinated carboxylic acids may be highly toxic. Our analytical strategy can identify Cl-DBPs accurately from complex mixtures and may also be applicable to the identification of other halogenated disinfection byproducts formed during water treatment.

Abstract
Wastewater ozonation forms various toxic byproducts, such as aldehydes, bromate, and organic bromine. However, there is currently no clear understanding of the overall toxicity changes in ozonated wastewater because pretreatment with solid phase extraction cannot retain inorganic bromate and volatile aldehydes, yet contributions of known ozonation byproducts to toxicity are unknown. Moreover, compared with bromate, organic bromine did not receive widespread attention. This study evaluated the toxicity of ozonated wastewater by taking aldehydes, bromate, and organic bromine into consideration. In the absence of bromide, formaldehyde contributed 96-97% cytotoxicity and 92-95% genotoxicity to HepG2 cells among the detected known byproducts, while acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde, and glyoxal had little toxicity. Both formaldehyde and dibromoacetonitrile drove toxicity among the known byproducts when bromide was present. Toxicity assays in HepG2 cells showed that when secondary effluents contained no bromide, the cytotoxicity of the nonvolatile organic fraction (NVOF) was reduced by 56-70%, and genotoxicity was completely removed after ozonation. However, the formed aldehydes (volatile organic fraction, VOF) led to increased overall toxicity. In the presence of bromide, compared with the secondary effluent, ozonation increased the cytotoxicity of the NVOFBr from 3.4-4.0 mg phenol/L to 10.3-13.9 mg phenol/L, possibly due to the formation of organic bromine. In addition, considering the toxicity of VOFBr (VOF in the presence of bromide, including aldehydes, tribromomethane, etc.), the overall cytotoxicity and genotoxicity became much higher than those of the secondary effluent. Although bromate had a limited impact on cytotoxicity and genotoxicity, it caused an increase in oxidative stress in HepG2 cells. Therefore, when taking full account of nonvolatile, volatile, and inorganic fractions, ozonation generally increases the toxicity of wastewater.

Abstract
The large number of trace organic contaminants (TrOCs) in wastewater has resulted in severe concerns to human health. Ozonation and UV/H2O2 are widely used to remove TrOCs in wastewater treatment process. Owing to the trace concentrations of TrOCs in wastewater, real-time monitoring of the abatement efficiency of TrOCs through ozonation and UV/H2O2 is quite challenging. Instead of a direct measurement of all the TrOCs, the research community has begun to use different surrogates to monitor the attenuation of TrOCs during AOPs. Various surrogates have been developed over the past few decades. In this review, the different types of surrogates are summarized, including ultraviolet spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy. Strong linear correlations have been found for the removal of TrOCs using AOPs, and the abatement of UV absorption spectroscopy at 254 nm or total fluorescence (TF). Moreover, a two-phase linear correlation can better describe the ozone-resistant TrOCs compared with a single linear correlation. Two different kinds of predictive models exist that use surrogates as the input for ozonation: the regression model and kinetic model. The development of the models requires a further understanding of the impacts of water quality, seasonal variations, and storm events on the kinetic parameters. For the in situ monitoring system, the light-emitting diode (LED) is one of the most promising light sources, although the sensitivity and accuracy still need to be improved.

Abstract
Chlorination can lead to the formation of hazardous chlorinated disinfection byproducts (Cl-DBPs). We identified tyrosine (Tyr) and tryptophan (Trp) as precursors of toxic Cl-DBPs and developed a halogen extraction code to complement ultra performance liquid chromatography in tandem with high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-HRMS) in detecting and identifying Cl-DBPs. We detected 20 and 11 Cl-DBPs formed from chlorination of Tyr and Trp, respectively, and identified the structures of 15 Cl-DBPs. Fourteen structures were previously unreported. We also proposed the tentative formation pathways of these newly identified Cl-DBPs. Their incidence in real water sources demonstrated that these Cl-DBPs are likely to form during chlorination of reclaimed water. We computationally predicted the toxicity of these Cl-DBPs, which was relatively high, indicating that these Cl-DBPs could be hazardous and were of valid concern. Combining analytical data with the halogen extraction code can identify Cl-DBPs accurately from complex compounds. This analytical method can be used to identify Cl-DBPs of water treatment procedures in further studies.

Abstract
Ammonia has been widely used to inhibit bromate formation during ozonation. However, our recent study found that during ozonation in the presence of bromide and ammonia, toxicity increased under certain conditions that might be attributed to the formation of nitrogenous byproducts. Herein, a typical structural moiety of natural organic matter (NOM), hydroquinone, was evaluated for its potential to form nitrogenous byproducts. During ozonation of the hydroquinone solution containing bromide and ammonia, toxicity of organic byproducts increased significantly. As organic bromine was hardly detected, organic nitrogen was responsible for the increased toxicity. An effective method combining ultra-performance liquid chromatography in tandem with high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-HRMS) with an isotope labeling strategy was used to trace nitrogenous byproducts. Four newly formed nitrogenous byproducts were detected, two of which were also detected in Suwannee River natural organic matter (SRNOM) solution treated under the same ozonation condition. Furthermore, the molecular structures and formation pathways of these nitrogenous byproducts were proposed. This study highlights that, despite the widespread use, adding ammonia to inhibit bromate formation during ozonation might increase the toxicity posed by nitrogenous byproducts. During ozonation in the presence of bromide and ammonia, particular attention should be paid to nitrogenous byproducts.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the early experience and clinical value of minimally invasive coronary surgery-total arterial coronary revascularization (MICS-TACR) through the left anterior small incision. Methods: Between May 2015 and June 2018, a total of 31 consecutive cases [21 males and 10 females, aged (63.2±9.3) years] in Peking University Third Hospital who were performed MICS-TACR with bilateral internal mammary artery and radial artery were enrolled. Meanwhile, 1 489 cases of conventional median sternal incision off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) were matched as control group. According to exclusion criteria and matching score, 90 cases [55 males and 35 females, aged (63.8±9.5) years] were selected as the control group, and the perioperative data of the two groups were compared. All patients in MICS-TACR group underwent postoperative angiography and the graft patency was evaluated. Results: There were no statistically significant differences in baseline data between the two groups. The perioperative blood transfusion of MICS-TACR group was less than control group [0(0,0) U vs 0(0,4) U, P=0.003]. There were no statistically significant differences in operative mortality, intraoperative and postoperative intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) use, re-operation rate, perioperative major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), new-onset renal failure, atrial fibrillation, and multiple organ failure between the two groups. Postoperative angiography showed that there was no significant difference in the patency rate between the MICS-TACR group and control group(all P>0.05). Conclusion: Total arterial coronary revascularization can be successfully accomplished under the left anterior small incision, and the early clinical outcome is satisfied.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the safety and effectiveness of two minimally invasive approaches for multi-vessel coronary revascularization. METHODS From August 2014 to February 2017, 70 consecutive patients who underwent minimally invasive coronary artery bypass grafting in Peking University Third Hospital were randomly divided into two groups. In one group, 40 patients underwent staged-hybrid coronary revascularization (staged-HCR) treatment; in the other group, 30 patients underwent minimally invasive total arterial revascularization with bilateral internal thoracic artery (BITA). In staged -HCR group, the patients underwent minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass grafting (MIDCAB) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedure for treatment of multi-vessel disease. In BITA group, the patients underwent total arterial coronary artery bypass grafting with composite "Y" BITA graft. Preoperative and postoperative data of the two groups, including postoperative blood usage, mechanical ventilation time, domiciling duration in intensive care unit (ICU), major adverse cerebral and cardiovascular event (MACCE), and postoperative coronary angiography results were compared, in order to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of these surgical approaches. RESULTS The preoperative characteristics of 70 patients in the two groups showed no significant difference. All the patients underwent successfully, elective minimally invasive multi-vessel coronary artery bypass grafting as scheduled preoperatively. Postoperative result showed the patients in staged-HCR group took advantages in less postoperative mechanical ventilation time [Staged-HCR group (11.2±8.7) h vs. BITA group (18.3±9.1) h, P=0.013], shorter domiciling duration in ICU [Staged-HCR group (26.29±4.05) h vs. BITA group (44.74±28.75) h, P=0.022], and less total drainage [Staged-HCR group (695.57±250.46) mL vs. BITA group (1 103.26±547.44) mL, P=0.03] than the patients in the group of minimally invasive total arterial revascularization with BITA. Postoperative in hospital coronary angiography showed satisfactory graft patency rates in both groups [97.5% in Staged-HCR group vs. 97.8% in BITA group]. No MACCE occurred in both groups during hospitalization. CONCLUSION Staged-HCR is a feasible method for the treatment of multi-vessel revascularization involving right coronary artery. Minimally coronary revascularization with BITA is associated with superior long-term graft patency and it's recommended for patients who could not tolerate dual-antiplatelet therapy. This study shows that both minimally invasive surgical approaches are safe and effective for treatment of patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease.

Abstract
This study examined the effects of cocaine use during the second trimester of pregnancy on cerebral neocortical volume and density, and total number of neocortical neurons and glia in offspring. We also evaluated the extent of postnatal recovery of cytoarchitectural abnormalities previously observed in the neocortex of two-month-old primates born from cocaine-treated mothers (Lidow [1995] Synapse 21:332-334). Pregnant monkeys received cocaine orally (20 mg/kg/day) from the 40th to 102nd days of pregnancy (embryonic day [E]40-E102). On E64 and E65, the animals were injected with [(3)H]thymidine. Cerebral hemispheres of the offspring were examined at three years of age. We found a reduction in the neocortical volume and density and total number of neocortical neurons. The observed reduction in neuronal number within the neocortex was not accounted for by the increase in the number of neurons in the white matter of cocaine-exposed animals, because the number of these "extra" neurons was equal to only half that of missing neurons. We detected no significant changes in the number of neocortical glia. The cytoarchitectural abnormalities in the neocortex of prenatally cocaine-exposed three-year-old monkeys closely resembled previously described neocortical abnormalities in similarly exposed two-month-old animals: the neocortex lacked a discernible lamination; the majority of the cells labeled by [(3)H]thymidine injected during neocortical neurogenesis did not reach their proper position within the cortical plate. Therefore, postnatal maturation is not associated with significant improvement in neocortical organization in primates prenatally exposed to cocaine. There was, however, a postnatal recovery of low glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) immunoreactivity previously observed in 2-month-old cocaine-exposed animals.

Abstract
This study examined the effect of cocaine on cell proliferation in the fetal monkey cerebral wall. Pregnant monkeys received cocaine daily (10 mg/kg, orally, in fruit treats, at 07.00 h and 19.00 h) beginning on the 40th day of pregnancy (E40). The control animals received fruit treats only. One set of monkeys was used to examine the state of cell proliferation in the fetal cerebral wall at peak cocaine levels. These animals were injected with [(3)H]thymidine intravenously on E73, 1.5 h after the morning drug or placebo administration. Another set of monkeys was used to determine the state of cell proliferation after cocaine concentration declined to ineffective levels. These animals were injected with [(3)H]thymidine on the same day of pregnancy 10 h after the treatment. Cesarean sections were performed 40 min after the radioisotope injection. The right hemispheres were processed for autoradiography. The left hemispheres were used for biochemical analysis of the radioisotope incorporation into DNA. The third set of monkeys was used to determine whether chronic cocaine treatment extends the timing of neocortical neuronogenesis. These monkeys received their final cocaine treatment on E102 (the last day of normal neocortical neuronogenesis) and were injected with [(3)H]thymidine 24 h later. On E113, the fetal brains were processed for emulsion autoradiography. We found a significant decrease in the density of [(3)H]thymidine-labeled cells and in the levels of this radioisotope incorporation into DNA in the fetal cerebral wall 1.5 h after cocaine administration. In contrast, 10 h after cocaine administration we detected a significantly elevated density of radiolabeled cells, and abnormally high levels of [(3)H]thymidine incorporation into DNA. This suggests that chronic intermittent administration of cocaine results in significant periodic fluctuations in cell production within the fetal cortical proliferative zones. We detected no cocaine-induced extension in neocortical neuronogenesis.

Abstract
Previously, we demonstrated that chronic exposure of fetal monkeys to cocaine could result in development of the neocortex with significant cytoarchitectonic abnormalities [Synapse, 21 (1995) 435-444]. In the present study, we examined the developmental time-frame within which neocortical cytoarchitecture is susceptible to modifications by prenatal cocaine exposure. For this purpose, we assessed the integrity of cortical lamination and the position, density, and total number of occipital cortical neurons in 2-month-old monkeys which were prenatally exposed to chronic cocaine treatment either prior to the period of neocortical neuronogenesis, during the period of neocortical neuronogenesis, or after the period of neocortical neuronogenesis. We found that cocaine can interfere with the neocortical laminar organization and induce a reduction in the density and number of neocortical neurons only if it is administered at the time of neocortical neuronogenesis. During this window of vulnerability, an abnormal neocortex is generated as long as cocaine exposure is maintained, with corticogenesis becoming normal as soon as the administration of this drug is discontinued.

Abstract
We compared pharmacokinetics of cocaine and its metabolite, benzoylecgonine, in pregnant rhesus monkeys and their fetuses at mid-gestation: 1) after a single intravenous dose of cocaine, 2) after a single oral dose of cocaine, 3) after the last oral cocaine administration of a 50-day-long chronic cocaine treatment, and 4) on the last day of a 50-day-long chronic treatment with five daily intravenous cocaine injections. We found that intravenous administrations of cocaine produced maximal maternal levels of benzoylecgonine below the plasma levels for cocaine. In contrast, oral administrations resulted in the maximal maternal plasma levels of this metabolite significantly above those of cocaine. The bioavailability of the orally administered cocaine was calculated as 25%. Cocaine was detectable in the fetal plasma at maximal levels of approximately 1/5 of peak maternal levels for both single intravenous and single oral administrations. The maximal plasma levels of benzoylecgonine for the fetuses of the intravenously treated mothers were close to those of cocaine, whereas peak levels of this metabolite in the plasma of the fetuses of the mothers receiving the oral treatments were above those of cocaine. The chronic treatments resulted in significantly higher maximal levels of cocaine in the fetal circulation compared with those produced by single drug administrations.

Abstract
We examined the long-term effects of a short-lasting (approximately 24 h) inflammatory insult generated by injections of 0.25% carrageenan (1 microl/g) into the hindpaws of newborn (P0) rat pups. At P60 animals which experienced this early inflammatory insult showed significant alterations in the withdrawal responses to noxious stimulation of the affected paws. Furthermore, in the absence of ongoing inflammation, the withdrawal latencies to heat stimulation and withdrawal thresholds to mechanical stimulation were increased by such experience. In the presence of ongoing CFA-induced inflammation, however, the same early experience decreased these parameters of response to noxious stimulation. These data suggest that early inflammatory insult may differentially affect the aspects of nociceptive circuitry involved in transient pain sensitivity and in inflammation-induced hyperalgesia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mounting evidence indicates that long-term treatment with antipsychotic medications can alter the morphology and connectivity of cellular processes in the cerebral cortex. The cytoskeleton plays an essential role in the maintenance of cellular morphology and is subject to regulation by intracellular pathways associated with neurotransmitter receptors targeted by antipsychotic drugs. METHODS We have examined whether chronic treatment with the antipsychotic drug haloperidol interferes with phosphorylation state and tissue levels of a major dendritic cytoskeleton-stabilizing agent, microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2), as well as levels of the dendritic spine-associated protein spinophilin and the synaptic vesicle-associated protein synaptophysin in various regions of the cerebral cortex of rhesus monkeys. RESULTS Among the cortical areas examined, the prefrontal, orbital, cingulate, motor, and entorhinal cortices displayed significant decreases in levels of spinophilin, and with the exception of the motor cortex, each of these regions also exhibited increases in the phosphorylation of MAP2. No changes were observed in either spinophilin levels or MAP2 phosphorylation in the primary visual cortex. Also, no statistically significant changes were found in tissue levels of MAP2 or synaptophysin in any of the cortical regions examined. CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrate that long-term haloperidol exposure alters neuronal cytoskeleton- and spine-associated proteins, particularly in dopamine-rich regions of the primate cerebral cortex, many of which have been implicated in the psychopathology of schizophrenia. The ability of haloperidol to regulate cytoskeletal proteins should be considered in evaluating the mechanisms of both its palliative actions and its side effects.

Abstract
Lack of IFN-beta and MHC class I expression in measles virus (MV) infected neurons could impair the host antiviral defense mechanism and result in virus escape from recognition by cytotoxic T-cells. Induction of IFN-beta and MHC class I gene expression requires NF-kappaB activation which depends on degradation of IkappaBalpha, an inhibitory protein of NF-kappaB. In earlier studies we demonstrated that in contrast to glial cells, MV was unable to induce IkappaBalpha degradation in neuronal cells. It is unclear whether this failure is due to the presence of a neuron-specific IkappaBalpha isoform or a defect in the MV signaling cascade that leads to IkappaBalpha phosphorylation and degradation. In this study, an IkappaBalpha-wild type (WT) expression vector was transfected into neuronal and glial cells and subsequently exposed to MV. In contrast to glial cells, IkappaBalpha-WT was degraded in neuronal cells in response to TNFalpha but not MV. The findings eliminate the existence of an IkappaBalpha isoform in neuronal cells that is resistant to phosphorylation by MV. Blocking de novo protein synthesis with cyclohexamide had no effect on neuronal IkappaBalpha, indicating that lack of degradation rather than increased synthesis is responsible for IkappaBalpha accumulation in MV-stimulated neuronal cells. To determine if malfunction in the MV receptor CD46 is responsible for failure of IkappaBalpha phosphorylation and degradation, neuronal cells were transfected with a wild type CD46 (CD46-WT) expression vector. MV stimulation of CD46-WT transfected cells failed to induce IkappaBalpha degradation. Collectively these findings indicate that failure of MV to phosphorylate neuronal IkappaBalpha is not due to a presence of an IkappaBalpha isoform or malfunction of the MV receptor, and is more likely to be due to a defect in the signaling pathway that normally leads to IkappaBalpha phosphorylation and degradation.

Abstract
Transferase dUTP nick-end labelling (TUNEL) analysis was used to compare the occurrence of cell death in the cerebral wall of cocaine-exposed and drug-naïve monkey fetuses. The rhesus monkeys providing the drug-exposed fetuses received 10 mg/kg of cocaine orally (in fruit treats) in the morning and in the evening between pregnancy days 50 and 65. The control pregnant animals received fruit treats only. The fetuses were removed for analysis by Caesarean section 10 h after the last cocaine treatment. The sections of the cerebral wall from the cocaine-exposed fetuses contained significantly higher numbers of TUNEL-positive nuclei (counted either per section area or per 1000 unlabeled nuclei) than the matching sections from the drug-naïve fetuses. This elevation in the number of TUNEL-positive cells was observed through the entire depth of the fetal cerebral wall including its proliferative and intermediate zones, cortical plate and the marginal zone. The present study demonstrates that consumption of cocaine during pregnancy can result in increased occurrence of cell death in the developing cerebrum.

Abstract
The distribution of submucous neurons that project to the myenteric plexus of the guinea pig small intestine was established by retrograde transport of the carbocyanine dye 1,1'-didodecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethyl indocarbocyanine perchlorate (DiI) from myenteric ganglia in organ culture in combination with immunohistochemistry. Following the application of DiI to the serosal surface of a single myenteric ganglion, from 2 to 15 DiI-labelled nerve cell bodies were labelled in the submucous plexus up to 7.9 mm circumferentially, 4.5 mm orally, and 3.4 mm aborally to the DiI application site. No cells were labelled in preparations in which connections between myenteric and submucous plexuses had been severed prior to DiI application. Cells that were immunoreactive for vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) or for substance P (SP) accounted for about 75% and 11% of DiI-labelled cells, respectively. Neither neuropeptide Y- nor calretinin-immunoreactive submucous neurons were labelled by DiI, indicating that these classes of neurons do not project to the myenteric plexus. Retrograde tracing from the myenteric plexus with Neurobiotin revealed that labelled VIP-immunoreactive neurons had several short, filamentous processes and a single long axon that could be followed through the circular muscle to myenteric ganglia without branches to the mucosa. The previously described projection of submucous, SP-immunoreactive putative sensory neurons to the myenteric plexus was confirmed. However, this study has identified a considerably larger population of presumed interneurons that are immunoreactive for VIP that likely transmit information from the submucous plexus to the myenteric plexus and presumably coordinate activity between the two ganglionated plexuses.

Abstract
The projections, connections, morphology and electrophysiological features of the myenteric interneurons with somatostatin immunoreactivity in the guinea-pig small intestine have been established using retrograde tracing, immunohistochemistry, confocal microscopy and intracellular recording. After application of the fluorescent dye, 1,1'-didodecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethyl indocarbocyanine perchlorate (DiI), to the myenteric plexus, up to 900 nerve cell bodies were labelled in each preparation. Somatostatin-immunoreactive neurons accounted for 13% of all retrogradely labelled cells and were located up to 70 mm orally. When DiI was applied to the submucous ganglia, many myenteric neurons were labelled and 8% of all retrogradely labelled cells were somatostatin immunoreactive and were located up to 60 mm oral to the DiI application sites. These neurons had ovoid cell bodies, a single axon, several long filamentous dendrites and received close contacts from 40-200 somatostatin-immunoreactive varicosities. Intracellular recordings revealed that these cells had features of both S (i.e. with Synaptic inputs) and AH (i.e. neurons with After Hyperpolarization) cells, receiving fast excitatory synaptic inputs, having characteristic "sag" in their response to hyperpolarizing current pulses and sometimes a long afterhyperpolarization following soma action potentials. It is concluded that somatostatin-immunoreactive neurons have distinct electrophysiological features and form very long anally directed interneuronal chains that connect with both myenteric and submucous neurons.

Abstract
Immunohistochemical and electrophysiological properties of submucous neurons were investigated in organ cultures of the guinea-pig small intestine. Preparations of submucosa, with or without the myenteric plexus attached, were maintained in vitro for 3 to 5 days. Immunohistochemical labelling for peptides revealed that the cultured submucous plexus remained substantially intact and the immunoreactivity of cell bodies was well preserved. Substantial sprouting of nerve fibers immunoreactive for vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) or neuropeptide Y (NPY) was evident in submucous ganglia after 5 days in organ culture. Nerve fibers immunoreactive for substance P. somatostatin, 5-hydroxytryptamine or tyrosine hydroxylase were substantially depleted in submucous ganglia or perivascular nerves at 3 days and had virtually disappeared after 5 days in cultures of isolated submucosa. During intracellular recording from submucous neurons, action potentials were initiated by depolarizing current pulses in all neurons cultured with or without the myenteric plexus and muscle layers. Electrical stimulation of internodal strands evoked fast excitatory synaptic potentials (fast EPSPs) in nearly all neurons whether or not the myenteric plexus was present during the culture period up to 5 days. The removal of myenteric plexus and extrinsic nerves did not abolish fast EPSPs from submucous neurons, suggesting that some fast EPSPs may originate from neurons in the submucous plexus, although the possibility that new synapses formed by sprouting, or surviving axons severed from myenteric or sympathetic ganglia may have been functional, cannot be entirely excluded. This work demonstrates that the immunohistochemical and electrophysiological characteristics of submucous neurons are largely maintained in organ cultures of the submucosa.

Abstract
The projections of myenteric neurons within the myenteric plexus of the guinea-pig small intestine were established using retrograde tracing in organotypic culture. Three days after applying the fluorescent dye DiI to a single internodal strand in the myenteric plexus, 500-1000 nerve cell bodies were labelled. Of these, 77% were located oral to the application site, 15% were located anally and 7% were located within 1 mm of this site. Three major morphological types of neurons could be distinguished. Dogiel type I neurons had lamellar dendrites and single axons, Dogiel type II neurons had large smooth cell bodies and several long processes, and filamentous neurons had smooth ovoid cell bodies, single axons and several filamentous dendrites. Dogiel type I, II and filamentous neurons accounted for 54.6%, 38% and 7.4% of all filled cells, respectively. Labelled nerve cell bodies were present up to 13 mm aboral to the DiI application site; all neurons more than 2 mm aboral had Dogiel type I features. On the oral side, Dogiel type I neurons were found up to 110 mm, Dogiel type II neurons up to 100 mm and filamentous neurons up to 80 mm. Neurons with 2 mm oral or aboral to the DiI application site were located up to 7 mm circumferentially and were mainly Dogiel type II cells. This work revealed remarkable polarity within the myenteric plexus, with a significant prevalence of myenteric neurons projecting anally for longer distances than those projecting orally. These long pathways are probably involved in the coordination of intestinal motility.

Abstract
External muscle and myenteric plexus from the small intestine of adult guinea-pigs were maintained in vitro for 3 or 6 days. Myenteric neurons and smooth muscle cells from such organotypic cultures were examined at the electron-microscopic level. An intact basal lamina was found around the myenteric ganglia and internodal strands. Neuronal membranes, nuclei and subcellular organelles appeared to be well preserved in cultured tissues and ribosomes were abundant. Dogiel type-II neurons were distinguishable by their elongated electron-dense mitochondria, numerous lysosomes and high densities of ribosomes. Vesiculated nerve profiles contained combinations of differently shaped vesicles. Synaptic membrane specializations were found between vesiculated nerve profiles and nerve processes and cell bodies. The majority of nerve fibres were well preserved in the myenteric ganglia, in internodal strands and in bundles running between circular muscle cells. No detectable changes were found in the ultrastructure of the somata and processes of glial cells. Longitudinal and circular muscle cells from cultured tissue had clearly defined membranes with some close associations with neighbouring muscle cells. Caveolae occurred in rows that ran parallel to the long axis of the muscle cells. These results indicate that the ultrastructural features of enteric neurons and smooth muscle of the guinea-pig small intestine are well preserved in organotypic culture.

Abstract
Enteric AH neurons, with multipolar Dogiel type II morphology, project around the circumference of the intestine to myenteric ganglia, the submucosa and mucosa. Using retrograde labeling in vitro, intracellular recording, dye filling and immunohistochemistry, the projections of these neurons along the intestine were studied. When the retrograde tracer, Dil, was applied to the myenteric plexus, labeled nerve cell bodies were located up to 111 mm orally but only 13 mm aborally, demonstrating a marked difference in the lengths of projections up and down the small intestine. Of labeled nerve cell bodies located 2-110 mm orally, 43% had Dogiel type II morphology and of these, 70% were immunoreactive for calbindin, a calcium binding protein exclusive to Dogiel type II neurons. Intracellular filling with neurobiotin revealed several long circumferentially directed nerve fibers and short, filamentous dendrites; thus these were "dendritic" Dogiel type II neurons. This class accounts for approximately 3-4% of all myenteric neurons, and about 10% of all Dogiel type II neurons. Intracellular recordings revealed AH cell characteristics, with long afterhyperpolarizations following their action potentials, pronounced slow excitatory synaptic inputs and a lack of fast excitatory synaptic inputs. Antidromic action potentials could be evoked from the Dil application site in some cells, confirming their aboral projection. This is the first account of a major aboral projection of AH/Dogiel type II neurons and suggests an important role in aborally directed reflexes in the intestine.

Abstract
Endogenous alkaline phosphatase activity has been localized histochemically on the surface of enteric neurons of the guinea-pig small intestine by both light and electron microscopy. The enzyme activity was associated with some myenteric neurons that had Dogiel type I morphology, and the histochemical reaction products typically formed a honeycomb-like structure on labelled cell bodies. No Dogiel type II neurons in the myenteric plexus or submucous neurons showed alkaline phosphatase reactivity. Nerve fibres reactive for alkaline phosphatase were present in the myenteric plexus and ran in bundles in the circular muscle and deep muscular plexus. In addition, reactive varicose axons supplied the submucous plexus and non-ganglionated plexus of the mucosa. The results of interruption of the enteric neuronal pathways demonstrated that alkaline phosphatase-reactive myenteric neurons project anally to other myenteric ganglia, to the circular muscle and to the submucous plexus. Sequential enzyme histochemistry showed that virtually all alkaline phosphatase-reactive neurons also contained nitric oxide synthase, revealed by NADPH-diaphorase reactivity. It was estimated that 14-18% of all myenteric neurons showed alkaline phosphatase reactivity. About one-third of nitric oxide synthase-containing myenteric neurons, however, did not contain alkaline phosphatase activity. At the ultrastructural level, alkaline phosphatase activity was associated specifically with the plasma membranes of nerve cell bodies, axons and dendrites of some myenteric neurons. Reactive nerve fibres made close appositions with non-reactive submucous neurons and, within myenteric ganglia, predominantly with other alkaline phosphatase-reactive neurons. In addition to its presence in neurons, alkaline phosphatase reactivity was also present in some endothelial cells in blood vessels in the submucosa and in capillary pericytes. It is concluded, on the basis of the projections and neurochemistry, that in the guinea-pig small intestine alkaline phosphatase activity is associated with nitric oxide synthase-containing neurons which include inhibitory motor neurons to the circular muscle, and anally-directed interneurons to other myenteric and submucous neurons.

Abstract
The projections of Dogiel type II myenteric neurons to the mucosa of the guinea-pig ileum were quantified by combining retrograde transport of DiI, in vitro, with immunohistochemistry. After DiI application to the mucosa over an area of 1.5 x 10 mm2, virtually all (> 97%) calbindin-immunoreactive Dogiel type II neurons in the myenteric plexus underneath the mucosal DiI application site were labelled, indicating that essentially all of these neurons project to the mucosa. From cell counts, on average 5 calbindin-immunoreactive neurons project to each villus, and each calbindin-immunoreactive neuron supplies on average 10 villi. Since Dogiel type II neurons that were not immunoreactive for calbindin (19% of all labelled nerve cells) also projected to the mucosa, it is likely that all Dogiel type II neurons, which are putative sensory neurons of the gut, project to the mucosa.

Abstract
Enzyme histochemistry, in combination with immunohistochemistry was used to establish the neurochemistry of neurons in the vas deferens and pelvic ganglia of the guinea-pig. Nerve fibres characterised by reactivity for reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-diaphorase reactivity formed a dense network in the lamina propria and circular muscle layer of the vas deferens, but were very sparse in the longitudinal muscle layer of the vas deferens. NADPH-diaphorase reactivity was also present in nerve fibres forming a dense perivascular plexus in many of the arteries in the pelvic region and in some of the endothelial cells, especially near the origin of the capillaries. Nerves with vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP)-immunoreactivity had a similar distribution to NADPH-diaphorase reactive nerves. Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-immunoreactive nerve fibres were found in both muscle layers of the vas deferens. There was no coexistence of VIP- and TH-immunoreactivities in nerve fibres in the vas deferens. In the anterior pelvic ganglia, the origin of the nerve fibres in the vas deferens, several classes of neurons could be identified by the presence or absence of the reactivity for NADPH-diaphorase and immunoreactivity for VIP and TH. Neurons containing both VIP and NADPH-diaphorase reactivity accounted for 40% of neurons in the ganglia. Neurons with VIP-immunoreactivity but not NADPH-diaphorase reactivity accounted for 6%. TH-immunoreactive neurons accounted for 22% of neurons in the anterior pelvic ganglia. Very rare cells (< 1%) contained both VIP- and TH-immunoreactivities. The remaining neurons, which were not labelled by any of these markers, comprised 31% of neurons in anterior pelvic ganglia. These results demonstrate the existence of NADPH-diaphorase reactivity in neurons containing VIP-immunoreactivity, thus suggest that nitric oxide may be a neurotransmitter in guinea-pig vas deferens, especially in the circular muscle layer, in the arteries, and in other pelvic organs innervated by pelvic ganglia.

Abstract
NADPH-diaphorase histochemistry was used to establish the nature of neurons and nerve fibers in the rat anococcygeus muscle. NADPH-diaphorase-reactive nerve cell bodies were found in ganglia in the caudal dorsal fascia of the muscle and within the muscle itself. The reactive nerve cells had a relatively smooth surface and a single axon. They formed bundles of positive nerve fibers which entered the muscle and branched further to form a network extending towards the cranial end. In addition, bundles of NADPH-diaphorase-reactive fibers of extrinsic origin joined the loose plexus of local bundles and microganglia. The NADPH-diaphorase-reactive neurons supplying the rat anococcygeus muscle provide a neuroanatomical basis for the non-adrenergic non-cholinergic relaxation of the muscle mediated by nitric oxide.

Abstract
Motor neurons that innervate the longitudinal muscle of the guinea pig ileum were identified by retrograde transport from the longitudinal muscle plexus in organotypic culture. Motor neurons had short projections, less than 3.5 mm long, and never had Dogiel type II morphology; most labeled neurons had morphological characteristics of Dogiel type I neurons. Immunoreactivity for choline acetyltransferase was present in 97% of retrogradely labeled nerve cell bodies, reflecting the dominant cholinergic input to the longitudinal muscle layer. Substance P immunoreactivity was present in 48% of motor neurons, indicating that it or a similar tachykinin that mediates noncholinergic excitatory transmission is likely to be released by a subset of cholinergic motor neurons. This strongly suggests that the difference in frequency dependence of substance P and acetylcholine release is attributable to different release mechanisms rather than to activation of separate populations of motor neurons. Immunoreactivity for the calcium-binding protein calretinin was present in 87% of longitudinal muscle motor neurons. The neurochemical coding of longitudinal muscle motor neurons indicated that they constitute about one quarter of all myenteric neurons and are distinct from circular muscle motor neurons.

Abstract
Double-labelling immunohistochemistry and retrograde transport of the carbocyanine dye, DiI, were used to establish the pathways of submucous neurons to the mucosa of the guinea-pig small intestine. Following the application of DiI to a villus, DiI-labelled nerve cell bodies were found in the submucous plexus up to 8.3 mm circumferentially and 3.8 mm longitudinally. The size of each of the four characterised classes of submucous neurons was determined and their distributions and projections mapped. Cells characterised by vasoactive intestinal polypeptide immunoreactivity accounted for 52% of DiI-labelled cells and had the longest projections. Cells characterised by neuropeptide Y (19%) or by calretinin immunoreactivity (13% of all DiI-labelled neurons) had relatively short projections and cells with substance P immunoreactivity (20%) had intermediate lengths of projection. When DiI was applied directly to the submucous plexus, filled neurons of all classes had significantly shorter projections, indicating that they must run for considerable distances in other pathways to the mucosa, probably via the non-ganglionated plexus. On average, each villus is innervated by at least 70 submucous neurons. From quantitative estimates there are 9 submucous neurons per villus. Thus, each submucous neuron is likely to supply about 8 villi. This demonstrates a high degree of convergence and divergence in the innervation of the mucosa.

Abstract
Electron microscopic immunocytochemistry was used to localize immunoreactivity for nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in whole-mount preparations of myenteric plexus and circular muscle from guinea-pig ileum. NOS immunoreactivity was patchily distributed in myenteric neurons and was not specifically associated with any subcellular organelle or with the plasma membrane. This localization leaves unanswered the question of how nitric oxide is stored and released. NOS immunoreactive fibres in the circular muscle were found closer than 100 nm to muscle cells. NOS immunoreactive nerve fibres made synaptic contacts with NOS immunoreactive and non-immunoreactive enteric neurons. These results indicate that nitric oxide may regulate the activity of both myenteric neurons and smooth muscle.

Abstract
Myenteric neurons which innervate the mucosa of the guinea-pig ileum were characterized by combining retrograde transport of DiI in vitro with immunohistochemistry. Of DiI-labelled myenteric neurons, 43% were immunoreactive for calbindin and substance P, 25% were immunoreactive for calbindin alone, and 18% were immunoreactive for substance P alone. These 3 classes of neurons had Dogiel Type II morphology and are probably sensory neurons. Two classes of probable secretomotor neurons were characterized by immunoreactivity for neuropeptide Y (4%) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (2%). These 5 classes of myenteric neurons represent over 90% of the retrogradely labelled myenteric neurons that project to the mucosa.
