Abstract
Background Barrett’s esophagus (BE) is the premalignant manifestation of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) with and without endoscopic resection (ER) is a novel treatment for BE. Methods Here we present a single-center update of the recommendations of a recent (June 2015) interdisciplinary expert panel meeting on the management of BE with dysplasia as well as cancer-positive and cancer-negative BE. We conducted a PubMed search of studies published in 2016 and 2017 on the topic of BE and RFA. Results Our update reconfirms that BE positive for T1a cancer as well as low- and high-grade dysplasia justifies the use of RFA ± ER, offering an 80–100% rate of BE clearance. RFA ± ER of dysplastic BE is tenfold more effective for cancer prevention when compared with surveillance. Risk factors for recurrence and follow-up treatments include baseline histopathology (dysplasia/T1a cancer), esophagitis, hiatal hernia >3 cm, smoking habits, BE segments >3 cm, and >10 years of GERD symptoms. A baseline diagnosis for dysplasia and T1a cancer should include a second expert pathologist opinion. Recent data justify the use of RFA for nondysplastic BE only in controlled clinical trials. Antireflux surgery can be offered to those with function-test-proven, GERD-symptom-positive BE before, during, or after RFA ± ER. Additionally, there is growing evidence that the intake of a sugar-rich diet is positively correlated with the development of GERD, BE, and cancer. Conclusion RFA ± ER should be offered for dysplastic BE and T1a cancer after ER as well as for nondysplastic BE with additional risk factors in controlled trials. Antireflux surgery can be offered to patients with function-test-proven GERD-symptom-positive BE. Diet considerations should be included in the management of GERD and BE.

Abstract
Introduction Barrett’s esophagus (BE) represents the premalignant morphology of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Evidence indicates a positive correlation between GERD vs. obesity and increased sugar consumption. Methods Here we analyzed recently published data (2006–2017) on the role of dietary sugar intake for BE development (main focus year 2017). Results Recent investigations found a positive association between obesity, hip waist ratio and dietary sugar intake and Barrett’s esophagus. Conclusion Sugar intake positively associates with BE. A low carbohydrate diet should be recommended for persons with BE and GERD.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to compare endoscopic stent suture fixation with endoscopic clip attachment or the use of partially covered stents (PCS) regarding their capability to prevent stent migration during prolonged dilatation in achalasia. Large-diameter self-expanding metal stents (30 mm × 80 mm) were placed across the gastroesophageal junction in 11 patients with achalasia. Stent removal was scheduled after 4 to 7 days. To prevent stent dislocation, endoscopic clip attachment, endoscopic stent suture fixation, or PCS were used. The Eckardt score was evaluated before and 6 months after prolonged dilatation. After endoscopic stent suture fixation, no (0/4) sutured stent migrated. When endoscopic clips were used, 80% (4/5) clipped stents migrated (p = 0.02). Of two PCS (n = 2), one migrated and one became embedded leading to difficult stent removal. Technical adverse events were not seen in endoscopic stent suture fixation but were significantly correlated with the use of clips or PCS (r = 0.828, p = 0.02). Overall, 72% of patients were in remission regarding their achalasia symptoms 6 months after prolonged dilatation. Endoscopic suture fixation of esophageal stents but not clip attachment appears to be the best method of preventing early migration of esophageal stents placed at difficult locations such as at the naive gastroesophageal junction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutritional status and body composition parameters such as sarcopenia are important risk factors for impaired outcome in patients with esophageal cancer. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of sarcopenia on long-term outcome after esophageal resection following neoadjuvant treatment. METHODS Skeletal muscle index (SMI) and body composition parameters were measured in patients receiving neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced esophageal cancer. Endpoints included relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS The study included 130 patients. Sarcopenia was found in 80 patients (61.5%). Patients with squamous-cell cancer (SCC) showed a decreased median SMI of 48 (range 28.4-60.8) cm/m2 compared with that of patients with adenocarcinoma (AC) of 52 (range 34.4-74.2) cm/m2, P < 0.001. The presence of sarcopenia had a significant impact on patient outcome: HR 1.69 (1.04-2.75), P = 0.036. Median OS was 20.5 (7.36-33.64) versus 52.1 (13.55-90.65) months in sarcopenic and non-sarcopenic patients, respectively. Sarcopenia was identified as an independent risk factor: HR 1.72 (1.049-2.83), P = 0.032. CONCLUSION Our data provide evidence that sarcopenia impacts long-term outcome after esophageal resection in patients who have undergone neoadjuvant therapy. Assessment of the body composition parameter can be a reasonable part of patient selection and may influence treatment methods.

Abstract
Barrett's esophagus represents a premalignant condition, which is strongly associated with the incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma. Currently, there are no validated markers to extract exactly that certain patient that will proceed to neoplastic progression. Therefore, therapeutic options have to include a larger population to provide prophylaxis for affected patients. Recently developed endoscopic therapeutic approaches offer treatment options for prevention or even treatment of limited esophageal adenocarcinoma. At present, high eradication rates of intestinal metaplasia as well as dysplasia are observed, whereas low complication rates offer a convenient safety profile. These striking new methods symbolize a changing paradigm in a field, where minimal-invasive tissue ablating methods and tissue preserving techniques have led to modified regimens. This review will focus on current standards and newly emerging methods to treat Barrett's esophagus and its progression to cancer and will highlight their evolution, potential benefits and their limitations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Gastrointestinal stents have become an important therapeutic option for several indications. However, migration in up to 40 % of cases represents a significant drawback, especially when covered prostheses are used. We hypothesized that a novel endoscopic suturing device could enable endoluminal stent fixation, which might increase attachment and thereby potentially reduce migration. PATIENTS AND METHODS In an initial ex vivo porcine model, stents were attached to the esophageal wall with either endoscopic hemoclips or by endoscopic suture stent fixation (ESSF). The distal tension force required to induce dislocation was measured in Newtons (N) by a digital force gauge and was compared with conventional stent placement. ESSF was then performed clinically in five patients, in whom self-expanding metal stents were sutured in place for endoscopic treatment of gastrointestinal fistulas or strictures. RESULTS Esophageal ESSF was achieved in all experiments and significantly increased the force needed to displace the stent (n = 12; mean force 20.4 N; 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 15.4 - 25.4; P < 0.01) compared with clip fixation (n = 8; mean 6.1 N; 95 %CI 4.7 - 7.6) or stent placement without fixation (n = 16; mean 4.8 N; 95 %CI 4.0 - 5.6). All clinical cases of ESSF were performed successfully (5 /5) and took a median of 15 minutes. Elective stent removal was achieved without complications. One stent migration (1 /5) due to sutures being placed too superficially was observed. More loosely tied sutures remained intact, with the stent attached in place. CONCLUSION Endoscopic suture fixation of gastrointestinal stents provided significantly enhanced migration resistance in an ex vivo setting. In addition, early clinical experience found ESSF to be technically feasible and easy to accomplish.

Abstract
The picornaviruses' genome consists of a positive-sense ssRNA. Like many picornaviruses, cardioviruses synthesize two distinct polyprotein precursors from adjacent but non-overlapping genome segments. Both the [L-1ABCD-2A] and the [2BC-3ABCD] polyproteins are proteolytically processed to yield mature capsid and non-structural proteins, respectively. An unusual translational event, known as 'StopGo' or 'Stop-Carry on', is responsible for the release of the [L-1ABCD-2A] polyprotein from the ribosome and synthesis of the N-terminal amino acid of the [2BC-3ABCD] polyprotein. A common feature of these viruses is the presence of a highly conserved signature sequence for StopGo: -D(V/I)ExNPG(↓)P-, where -D(V/I)ExNPG are the last 7 aa of 2A, and the last P- is the first amino acid of 2B. Here, we report that, in contrast to encephalomyocarditis virus and foot-and-mouth disease virus, a functional StopGo does not appear to be essential for Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus viability when tested in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) is a new surgical paradigm involving performance of intra-abdominal surgery via a natural orifice and thereafter peritoneal access through an intentionally created hole in a hollow viscus. The vast majority of research in this rapidly evolving field had involved access via an oral or vaginal route. Access via a transanal route, other than the obvious concern over contamination, has many appealing attributes. In addition, transanal surgery has long been a common procedure lending a valuable clinical experience to the foundation of this field of research. Examples of preclinical and clinical research on transanal NOTES colorectal resections are here presented and discussed.

Abstract
Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) outer capsid proteins 1B, 1C and 1D contribute to the virus serotype distribution and antigenic variants that exist within each of the seven serotypes. This study presents phylogenetic, genetic and antigenic analyses of South African Territories (SAT) serotypes prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa. Here, we show that the high levels of genetic diversity in the P1-coding region within the SAT serotypes are reflected in the antigenic properties of these viruses and therefore have implications for the selection of vaccine strains that would provide the best vaccine match against emerging viruses. Interestingly, although SAT1 and SAT2 viruses displayed similar genetic variation within each serotype (32 % variable amino acids), antigenic disparity, as measured by r(1)-values, was less pronounced for SAT1 viruses compared with SAT2 viruses within our dataset, emphasizing the high antigenic variation within the SAT2 serotype. Furthermore, we combined amino acid variation and the r(1)-values with crystallographic structural data and were able to predict areas on the surface of the FMD virion as antigenically relevant. These sites were mostly consistent with antigenic sites previously determined for types A, O and C using mAbs and escape mutant studies. Our methodology offers a quick alternative to determine antigenic relevant sites for FMDV field strains.

Abstract
The relationship between the central nervous system (CNS) and the endocrine system have been known for many years. Indeed some of the hormone secreting glands are actually located in the brain. The notion that the CNS and hormones are also involved in the bi-directional cross-talk with the Immune System has been the target of intense research in the recent decades. In this manner, for example, psychological states can be closely related to changes in immune mediators, and not only they may influence the evolution of human diseases, but may in the future lead to novel therapeutic interventions. This is the subject of this review, with particular emphasis on the role of psychoneuroimmunology (PNI) in psoriasis.

Abstract
Experimental infection of susceptible cattle and pigs showed that the O/SKR/AS/2002 pig strain of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) causes an infection that is highly virulent and contagious in pigs but very limited in cattle. Pigs directly inoculated with, or exposed to swine infected with, strain O/SKR/AS/2002 showed typical clinical signs, including gross vesicular lesions in mouth and pedal sites. In addition, FMDV was isolated from, and FMDV genomic RNA was detected in, blood, serum, nasal swabs and oesophageal-pharyngeal (OP) fluid early in the course of infection. Antibodies against the non-structural protein (NSP) 3ABC were detected in both directly inoculated and contact pigs, indicating active virus replication. In contrast, the disease in cattle was atypical. After inoculation, lesions were confined to the infection site. A transient viraemia occurred 1 and 2 days after inoculation, and this was followed by the production of antibodies to NSP 3ABC, indicating subclinical infection. No clinical disease was seen, and no antibodies to NSP 3ABC were present in contact cattle. Additionally, no virus or viral nucleic acid was detected in blood, nasal swab and OP fluid samples from contact cattle. Thus, the virus appeared not to be transmitted from infected cattle to contact cattle. In its behaviour in pigs and cattle, strain O/SKR/AS/2002 resembled the porcinophilic FMDV strain of Cathay origin, O/TAW/97. However, the latter, unlike O/SKR/AS/2002, has reduced ability to grow in bovine-derived cells. The porcinophilic character of O/TAW/97 has been attributed to a deletion in the 3A coding region of the viral genome. However, O/SKR/AS/2002 has an intact 3A coding region.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The first tissue engineered decellularized porcine heart valve, Synergraft (Cryolife Inc., USA) was introduced in Europe as an alternative to conventional biological valves. This is the first report of the rapid failure of these new grafts in a small series. MATERIALS AND METHODS In 2001, 2 model 500 and 2 model 700 Synergraft valves were implanted in four male children (age 2.5-11 years) in the right ventricular outflow tract as a root. Two patients had a Ross operation and two had a homograft replacement. RESULTS The cryopreserved Synergraft valves appeared macroscopically unremarkable at implantation. Recovery from surgery was uneventful and good valve function was demonstrated postoperatively. Three children died, two suddenly with severely degenerated Synergraft valves 6 weeks and 1 year after implantation. The third child died on the 7th day due to Synergraft rupture. Subsequently the fourth graft was explanted prophylactically 2 days after implantation. Macroscopically all four grafts showed severe inflammation starting on the outside (day 2 explant) leading to structural failure (day 7 explant) and severe degeneration of the leaflets and wall (6 weeks and 1 year explant). Histology demonstrated severe foreign body type reaction dominated by neutrophil granulocytes and macrophages in the early explants and a lymphocytic reaction at 1 year. In addition significant calcific deposits were demonstrated at all stages. Surprisingly pre-implant samples of the Synergraft revealed incomplete decellularization and calcific deposits. No cell repopulation of the porcine matrix occurred. CONCLUSION The xenogenic collagen matrix of the Synergraft valve elicits a strong inflammatory response in humans which is non-specific early on and is followed by a lymphocyte response. Structural failure or rapid degeneration of the graft occurred within 1 year. Calcific deposits before implantation and incomplete decellularization may indicate manufacturing problems. The porcine Synergraft treated heart valves should not be implanted at this stage and has been stopped.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tissue engineering of heart valves should avoid the disadvantages of conventional prostheses. In this study we tested different decellularization procedures for their potential of cell removal and their ability to preserve the matrix. METHODS Specimens of porcine aortic and pulmonary roots were treated with either trypsin or sodium-dodecyl-sulfate (SDS) or Triton-X 100 and sodium-deoxycholate with a range of concentrations. Tissue samples were then processed for scanning electron microscopy and laser scanning microscopy. RESULTS Trypsin achieved only incomplete decellularization and caused severe structural alterations of the matrix. In contrast SDS removed cells completely but caused strong structural alterations. Treatment with Triton-X100 and sodium-deoxycholate achieved both complete decellularization and preservation of the matrix structure. CONCLUSION Techniques of decellularization are highly variable in efficiency and matrix preservation and was best achieved in our study with Triton-X100 and sodium deoxycholate.

Abstract
C-Cluster enteroviruses (C-CEVs), consisting of Coxsackie A viruses (C-CAV1, 11, 13, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 24, 24v) and polioviruses (PV1, 2, 3), have been grouped together in relation to their genomic sequences. On the basis of disease syndromes caused in humans, however, C-CAVs and PVs are vastly different: the former cause respiratory disease, just like the major receptor group rhinoviruses (magHRV), whereas PVs, on invasion of the CNS, can cause poliomyelitis. It is assumed that the difference in pathogenesis of C-CEVs is governed predominantly by cellular receptor specificity. C-CAVs use ICAM-1, just like magHRV, whereas PVs uniquely use CD155. Both ICAM-1 and CD155 are Ig-like molecules. Remarkably, based on a phylogenetic analysis of non-structural proteins, CAV 11, 13, 17 and 18 are interleaved with, rather than separated from, the three PV serotypes, e.g. PV1 is more closely related to CAV18 that to PV2. This observation suggests that PVs may have emerged from a pool of C-CAVs by evolving a unique receptor specificity. We have been studying virion structure, virion/receptor interactions, genetics, and the molecular biology of C-CEVs with the objective of identifying the molecular basis of phenotypic diversity of these viruses. Of particular interest is the prospect that C-CEVs can be genetically manipulated to switch their receptor affinity: from CD155 to ICAM-1 for PVs, or from ICAM-1 to CD155 for C-CAVs. We propose a hypothesis that in a world free of poliovirus and anti-poliovirus neutralizing antibodies C-CAVs would be given a greater chance to switch receptor specificity from ICAM-1 to CD155 and thus, to evolve gradually into a new polio-like virus.

Abstract
Coxsackievirus A21 (CAV21), like human rhinoviruses (HRVs), is a causative agent of the common cold. It uses the same cellular receptor, intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), as does the major group of HRVs; unlike HRVs, however, it is stable at acid pH. The cryoelectron microscopy (cryoEM) image reconstruction of CAV21 is consistent with the highly homologous crystal structure of poliovirus 1; like other enteroviruses and HRVs, CAV21 has a canyon-like depression around each of the 12 fivefold vertices. A cryoEM reconstruction of CAV21 complexed with ICAM-1 shows all five domains of the extracellular component of ICAM-1. The known atomic structure of the ICAM-1 amino-terminal domains D1 and D2 has been fitted into the cryoEM density of the complex. The site of ICAM-1 binding within the canyon of CAV21 overlaps the site of receptor recognition utilized by rhinoviruses and polioviruses. Interactions within this common region may be essential for triggering viral destabilization after attachment to susceptible cells.

Abstract
In addition to highly conserved stem-loop structures located in the 5'- and 3'-nontranslated regions, genome replication of picornaviruses requires cis-acting RNA elements located in the coding region (termed cre) (K. L. McKnight and S. M. Lemon, J. Virol. 70:1941-1952, 1996; P. E. Lobert, N. Escriou, J. Ruelle, and T. Michiels, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 96:11560-11565, 1999; I. Goodfellow, Y. Chaudhry, A. Richardson, J. Meredith, J. W. Almond, W. Barclay, and D. J. Evans, J. Virol. 74:4590-4600, 2000). cre elements appear to be essential for minus-strand RNA synthesis by an as-yet-unknown mechanism. We have discovered that the cre element of poliovirus (mapping to the 2C coding region of poliovirus type 1; nucleotides 4444 to 4505 in 2C), which is homologous to the cre element of poliovirus type 3, is preferentially used as a template for the in vitro uridylylation of VPg catalyzed by 3D(pol) in a reaction that is greatly stimulated by 3CD(pro) (A. V. Paul, E. Rieder, D. W. Kim, J. H. van Boom, and E. Wimmer, J. Virol. 74:10359-10370, 2000). Here we report a direct correlation between mutations that eliminate, or severely reduce, the in vitro VPg-uridylylation reaction and produce replication phenotypes in vivo. None of the genetic changes significantly influenced translation or polyprotein processing. A substitution mapping to the first A (A4472C) of a conserved AAACA sequence in the loop of PV-cre(2C) eliminated the ability of the cre RNA to serve as template for VPg uridylylation and abolished RNA infectivity. Mutagenesis of the second A (A4473C; AAACA) severely reduced the yield of VPgpUpU and RNA infectivity was restored only after reversion to the wild-type sequence. The effect of substitution of the third A (A4474G; AAACA) was less severe but reduced both VPg uridylylation and virus yield. Disruption of base pairing within the upper stem region of PV-cre(2C) also affected uridylylation of VPg. Virus derived from transcripts containing mutations in the stem was either viable or quasi-infectious.

Abstract
The first step in the replication of the plus-stranded poliovirus RNA is the synthesis of a complementary minus strand. This process is initiated by the covalent attachment of UMP to the terminal protein VPg, yielding VPgpU and VPgpUpU. We have previously shown that these products can be made in vitro in a reaction that requires only synthetic VPg, UTP, poly(A), purified poliovirus RNA polymerase 3D(pol), and Mg(2+) (A. V. Paul, J. H. van Boom, D. Filippov, and E. Wimmer, Nature 393:280-284, 1998). Since such a poly(A)-dependent process cannot confer sufficient specificity to poliovirus RNA replication, we have developed a new assay to search for a viral RNA template in conjunction with viral or cellular factors that could provide this function. We have now discovered a small RNA hairpin in the coding region of protein 2C as the site in PV1(M) RNA that is used as the primary template for the in vitro uridylylation of VPg. This hairpin has recently been described in poliovirus RNA as being an essential structure for the initiation of minus strand RNA synthesis (I. Goodfellow, Y. Chaudhry, A. Richardson, J. Meredith, J. W. Almond, W. Barclay, and D. J. Evans, J. Virol. 74:4590-4600, 2000). The uridylylation reaction either with transcripts of cre(2C) RNA or with full-length PV1(M) RNA as the template is strongly stimulated by the addition of purified viral protein 3CD(pro). Deletion of the cre(2C) RNA sequences from minigenomes eliminates their ability to serve as template in the reaction. A similar signal in the coding region of VP1 in HRV14 RNA (K. L. McKnight and S. M. Lemon, RNA 4:1569-1584, 1998) and the poliovirus cre(2C) can be functionally exchanged in the assay. The mechanism by which the VPgpUpU precursor, made specifically on the cre(2C) template, might be transferred to the site where it serves as primer for poliovirus RNA synthesis, remains to be determined.

Abstract
We have developed naked DNA vaccine candidates for foot-and-mouth disease (FMD), an important disease of domestic animals. The virus that causes this disease, FMDV, is a member of the picornavirus family, which includes many important human pathogens, such as poliovirus, hepatitis A virus, and rhinovirus. Picornaviruses are characterized by a small (7-9000 nucleotide) RNA genome that encodes capsid proteins, processing proteinases, and enzymes required for RNA replication. We have developed two different types of DNA vaccines for FMD. The first DNA vaccine, pP12X3C, encodes the viral capsid gene (P1) and the processing proteinase (3C). Cells transfected with this DNA produce processed viral antigen, and animals inoculated with this DNA using a gene gun produced detectable antiviral immune responses. Mouse inoculations with this plasmid, and with a derivative containing a mutation in the 3C proteinase, indicated that capsid assembly was essential for induction of neutralizing antibody responses. The second DNA vaccine candidate, pWRMHX, encodes the entire FMDV genome, including the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, permitting the plasmid-encoded viral genomes to undergo amplification in susceptible cells. pWRMHX encodes a mutation at the cell binding site, preventing the replicated genomes from causing disease. Swine inoculated with this vaccine candidate produce viral particles lacking the cell binding site, and neutralizing antibodies that recognize the virus. Comparison of the immune responses elicited by pP12X3C and pWRMHX in swine indicate that the plasmid encoding the replicating genome stimulated a stronger immune response, and swine inoculated with pWRMHX by the intramuscular, intradermal, or gene gun routes were partially protected from a highly virulent FMD challenge.

Abstract
Over the last few years we have utilized a system to genetically engineer foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) to produce live-attenuated vaccine candidates. These candidates have been generated in the genetic background of a tissue culture-adapted strain of serotype A12 virus. Based on this A12 system, we created a virus lacking the sequence encoding the leader (L) proteinase (Piccone et al., 1995), and demonstrated that this leaderless virus, A12-LLV2 was avirulent in bovine and swine, and could be used as an attenuated vaccine (Mason et al., 1997; Chinsangaram et al., 1998). The current study shows that a similar leader-deleted chimeric virus containing the genome of the type A12 virus with a substituted type O1 capsid coding region from a bovine-virulent virus can be constructed, and that the virus has low, but detectable virulence in swine. A second chimera specifying a tissue culture-adapted type O1 capsid lacking the RGD cell binding site, was avirulent in swine, but was not sufficiently immunogenic to provide protection from challenge. These results are described with respect to mechanisms of attenuation and antigen formation in live-attenuated virus-inoculated animals.

Abstract
Adsorption and plaque formation of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) serotype A12 are inhibited by antibodies to the integrin alpha(v)beta3 (A. Berinstein et al., J. Virol. 69:2664-2666, 1995). A human cell line, K562, which does not normally express alpha(v)beta3 cannot replicate this serotype unless cells are transfected with cDNAs encoding this integrin (K562-alpha(v)beta3 cells). In contrast, we found that a tissue culture-propagated FMDV, type O1BFS, was able to replicate in nontransfected K562 cells, and replication was not inhibited by antibodies to the endogenously expressed integrin alpha5beta1. A recent report indicating that cell surface heparan sulfate (HS) was required for efficient infection of type O1 (T. Jackson et al., J. Virol. 70:5282-5287, 1996) led us to examine the role of HS and alpha(v)beta3 in FMDV infection. We transfected normal CHO cells, which express HS but not alpha(v)beta3, and two HS-deficient CHO cell lines with cDNAs encoding human alpha(v)beta3, producing a panel of cells that expressed one or both receptors. In these cells, type A12 replication was dependent on expression of alpha(v)beta3, whereas type O1BFS replicated to high titer in normal CHO cells but could not replicate in HS-deficient cells even when they expressed alpha(v)beta3. We have also analyzed two genetically engineered variants of type O1Campos, vCRM4, which has greatly reduced virulence in cattle and can bind to heparin-Sepharose columns, and vCRM8, which is highly virulent in cattle and cannot bind to heparin-Sepharose. vCRM4 replicated in wild-type K562 cells and normal, nontransfected CHO (HS+ alpha(v)beta3-) cells, whereas vCRM8 replicated only in K562 and CHO cells transfected with alpha(v)beta3 cDNAs. A similar result was also obtained in assays using a vCRM4 virus with an engineered RGD-->KGE mutation. These results indicate that virulent FMDV utilizes the alpha(v)beta3 integrin as a primary receptor for infection and that adaptation of type O1 virus to cell culture results in the ability of the virus to utilize HS as a receptor and a concomitant loss of virulence.

Abstract
DNA vaccine candidates for foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) were engineered to produce FMD virus (FMDV) particles that were noninfectious in cell culture or animals. The prototype plasmid, pWRM, contains a cytomegalovirus immediate-early promoter-driven genome-length type A12 cDNA followed by the bovine growth hormone polyadenylation site. BHK cells transfected with this plasmid produced virus, but the specific infectivity of pWRM was much lower than that achieved with in vitro-generated RNA genomes. To improve the infectivity of the plasmid, a cDNA encoding the hepatitis delta virus ribozyme was added to the 3' end of the FMDV cDNA. The resulting plasmid, pWRMH, exhibited slightly increased infectivity in cell culture and produced virus when inoculated into suckling mice. A third plasmid, pWRMHX, was created by removal of the sequences encoding the cell binding site found in capsid protein VP1 of pWRMH. Although cells transfected with pWRMHX produced viral capsids, this plasmid was not lethal in suckling mice, indicating that particles lacking the cell binding site were not able to initiate secondary infectious cycles. Swine inoculated with pWRMHX did not show any signs of disease and produced neutralizing antibodies to FMDV, and 20% of the vaccinated animals were protected from challenge. A derivative of pWRMHX, pWRMHX-pol-, harboring a mutation designed to inactivate the viral polymerase was much less immunogenic, indicating that immunogenicity of pWRMHX resulted, in part, from amplification of the viral genome in the animal.

Two different serotype O1 Campos preparations that we examined contained two variants with distinct plaque morphologies on BHK cells: a small, clear-plaque virus that replicates in BHK and CHO cells, and a large, turbid-plaque virus that only grows in BHK cells. cDNAs encoding the capsids of these two variants were inserted into a genome-length FMDV type A12 infectious cDNA and used to produce chimeric viruses that exhibited the phenotype of the original variants. Analyses of these viruses, and hybrids created by exchanging portions of the capsid gene, identified codon 56 in VP3 (3056) as the critical determinant of both cell tropism and plaque phenotype. Specifically, the CHO growth/clear-plaque phenotype is dependent on the presence of the highly charged Arg residue at 3056, and viruses with this phenotype and genotype were selected during propagation in tissue culture. The genetically engineered Arg 3056 virus was highly attenuated in bovines, but viruses recovered from animals inoculated with high doses of this virus had lost the ability to grow in CHO cells and contained either an uncharged residue at 3056 or a negatively charged Glu substituted for a Lys at a spatially and antigenically related position on VP2 (2134). Comparison of these animal-derived viruses to other natural and engineered viruses demonstrated that positively charged residues are required at both 2134 and 3056 for binding to heparin. Taken together, these results indicate that in vitro cultivation of FMDV type O selects viruses that bind to heparin and that viruses with the heparin-binding phenotype are attenuated in the natural host.

Abstract
One of the final steps in the maturation of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is cleavage of the VP0 protein to produce VP4 and VP2. The mechanism of this cleavage is unknown, but it is thought to function in stabilizing the virus particle and priming it for infecting cells. To investigate the cleavage process and to understand its role in virion maturation, we engineered synthetic FMDV RNAs with mutations at Ala-85 (A85) and Asp-86 (D86) of VP0, which border the cleavage site. BHK cells transfected with synthetic RNAs containing substitutions at position 85 (A85N or A85H) or at position 86 (D86N) yielded particles indistinguishable from wild-type (WT) virus in sedimentation and electrophoretic profiles. Viruses derived from these transfected cells were infectious and maintained their mutant sequences upon passage. However, BHK cells transfected with synthetic RNAs encoding Phe and Lys at these positions (A85F/D86K) or a Cys at position 86 (D86C) produced noninfectious provirions with uncleaved VP0 molecules. Despite their lack of infectivity, the A85F/D86K provirions displayed cell binding and acid sensitivity similar to those of WT virus. However, acid breakdown products of the A85F/D86K provirions differed in hydrophobicity from the comparable WT virion products, which lack VP4. Taken together, these studies are consistent with a role for soluble VP4 molecules in release of the viral genome from the endosomal compartment of susceptible cells.

Abstract
The gene for a single-chain antibody (VHK) to a conformational epitope on the type A12 foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) particle was assembled and expressed in Escherichia coli. The VHK, purified from periplasmic extracts immunoprecipitated virus as efficiently as its parental monoclonal antibody (MAb) and exhibited the same binding specificity when tested against panel of natural and genetically engineered virus particles. The VHK neutralized type A12 virus in the presence of goat anti-mouse IgG; however, in the absence of the second antibody, only weak neutralizing activity was detected. Preliminary analysis of the mechanism of viral neutralization indicated that both the MAb and the VHK neutralize by the same mechanism. Small amounts of the VHK allowed infection of cells via Fc receptor-mediated adsorption in the presence of the second antibody. These data represent the first report of a single-chain neutralizing antibody for a picornavirus and provide insights into the mechanisms of viral neutralization and virus uptake.

Abstract
To gain entry into cells, viruses utilize a variety of different cell-surface molecules. Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) binds to cell-surface integrin molecules via an arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) sequence in capsid protein VP1. Binding to this particular cell-surface molecule influences FMDV tropism, and virus/receptor interactions appear to be responsible, in part, for selection of antigenic variants. To study early events of virus-cell interaction, we engineered an alternative and novel receptor for FMDV. Specifically, we generated a new receptor by fusing a virus-binding, single-chain antibody (scAb) to intracellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM1). Cells that are normally not susceptible to FMDV infection became susceptible after being transfected with DNA encoding the scAb/ICAM1 protein. An escape mutant (B2PD.3), derived with the mAb used to generate the genetically engineered receptor, was restricted for growth on the scAb/ICAM1 cells, but a variant of B2PD.3 selected by propagation on scAb/ICAM1 cells grew well on these cells. This variant partially regained wild-type sequence in the epitope recognized by the mAb and also regained the ability to be neutralize by the mAb. Moreover, RGD-deleted virions that are noninfectious in animals and other cell types grew to high titers and were able to form plaques on scAb/ ICAM1 cells. These studies demonstrate the first production of a totally synthetic cell-surface receptor for a virus. This novel approach will be useful for studying virus reception and for the development of safer vaccines against viral pathogens of animals and humans.

Abstract
Widely used inactivated vaccines for foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) induce protective immunity, but vaccine production plants and residual virus in the vaccine itself have been implicated in disease outbreaks. The structure of the FMD virion has been determined, and although much of the surface of the viral particle is produced by complex folding of the three surface-exposed capsid proteins (VP1-3), some surface regions representing important linear epitopes can be mimicked by recombinant proteins or synthetic peptides. Vaccine candidates based on these products stimulate immune responses to foot-and-mouth virus (FMDV), but do not always protect livestock from disease. The basis of protective immunity to FMDV has been explored using genetic engineering to produce antigenic chimeras of the virus. Studies with these chimeras have shown that a strong and protective immune response can be generated in livestock to epitopes outside the sequential epitopes incorporated into previous subunit vaccine candidates. Genetic engineering of the virus has also been used to demonstrate that changes within the sequence encoding an arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) sequence in VP1 abrogate virus binding to cells in culture, confirming the role of RGD as the receptor binding site. Based on this information, genetically stable viruses which cannot bind to cells have been created by deleting the nucleotides coding the RGD sequence. The receptor binding site-deleted viruses have been shown to be non-infectious in tissue culture, mice, and swine. Cattle vaccinated with these viruses are protected from disease when challenged with virulent FMDV, demonstrating that they could serve as the basis for safer FMD vaccines.

Abstract
Binding of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) to cells requires an arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) sequence in the capsid protein VP1. We have genetically engineered an FMDV in which these three amino acids have been deleted, producing a virus particle which is unable to bind to cells. Cattle vaccinated with these receptor binding site-deleted virions were protected from disease when challenged with a virulent virus, demonstrating that these RGD-deleted viruses could serve as the basis for foot-and-mouth disease vaccines safer than those currently in use. This strategy may prove useful in the development of vaccines for other viral diseases.

Abstract
The foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) leader (L) proteinase has only two known functions: (i) autocatalytic removal from the N terminus of the viral polyprotein and (ii) cleavage of the p220 subunit of the eukaryotic initiation factor 4F complex, which helps to shut off host protein synthesis. Cleavage of p220 appears to be important for picornavirus replication, since rhinoviruses and enteroviruses utilize a different proteinase (2A) to cleave p220. To explore the role of L in FMDV replication, we generated synthetic FMDV genomes lacking the L gene and tested their viability in cells. Genomes were constructed with the N-terminal Gly codon of VP4 positioned directly following either the first (Lab) or second (Lb) Met codon of the L protein. Cells transfected with synthetic RNAs lacking L and initiating with the Lab Met codon failed to produce viable virus, but cells transfected with RNAs that utilized the second AUG to drive translation of the viral polyprotein produced viable viruses. These leader-deleted viruses produced plaques on BHK cells that were slightly smaller than those produced by wild-type (WT) virus, grew to slightly lower titers than WT virus in BHK cells, shut off host protein synthesis more slowly than WT virus, and were slightly attenuated in mice. These studies indicate that the L proteinase is not essential for FMDV replication and show that in the cells and animals tested the L gene has a limited effect on virus replication.

Abstract
The G-H loop of VP1 (residues 132 to 159) of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is a prominent feature on the virion surface and has an important role in vaccine efficacy, generation of antigenic variants, and cell binding. Using an infectious cDNA of FMDV, we have constructed serotype A viruses in which the G-H loop has been substituted with the homologous sequences from serotype O or C. These chimeric viruses replicated to high titer and displayed plaque morphologies similar to those of wild-type viruses, demonstrating that the functions provided by the loop can be readily exchanged between serotypes. Monoclonal antibody analyses showed that epitopes contained within the loop were transferred to the chimeras and that epitopes encoded by the type A backbone were maintained. Chemically inactivated vaccines prepared from chimeric viruses induced antibodies in guinea pigs that neutralized both type A and either type O or type C viruses. Swine inoculated with the A/C chimera vaccine also produced cross-reactive antibodies, were protected from challenge with the type A virus, and partially protected against challenge with type C. These studies emphasize the importance of epitopes outside of the G-H loop in protective immunity in swine, which is a natural host of FMDV.

Abstract
We recently have shown that binding of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) to cells in culture requires an arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) sequence in the G-H loop of the capsid protein VP1 (P. W. Mason, E. Rieder, and B. Baxt, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 91:1932-1936, 1994). In this report, we show that FMDV type A12 viruses found in infected bovine tongue tissue (BTT) differ from their tissue culture-grown derivatives at amino acid residues near the RGD. Viruses genetically engineered to contain VP1 sequences found in animal tissue (BTT viruses) were antigenically different from their tissue culture derivatives and bound to BHK cells more poorly than did the tissue culture-adapted viruses. Passage of the genetically engineered BTT viruses in BHK cells resulted in the rapid selection of variants with cell-binding properties, antigenic characteristics, and sequences typical of tissue culture-adapted viruses. These data indicate that residues near the RGD are critical for cell binding and that interpretations of antigenic variation of FMDV can be affected by virus cultivation in vitro.

Abstract
Foot-and-mouth disease virus appears to initiate infection by binding to cells at an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) sequence found in the flexible beta G-beta H loop of the viral capsid protein VP1. The role of the RGD sequence in attachment of virus to cells was tested by using synthetic full-length viral RNAs mutated within or near the RGD sequence. Baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells transfected with three different RNAs carrying mutations bordering the RGD sequence produced infectious viruses with wild-type plaque morphology; however, one of these mutant viruses bound to cells less efficiently than wild type. BHK cells transfected with RNAs containing changes within the RGD sequence produced noninfectious particles indistinguishable from wild-type virus in terms of sedimentation coefficient, binding to monoclonal antibodies, and protein composition. These virus-like particles are defined as ads- viruses, since they were unable to adsorb to and infect BHK cells. These mutants were defective only in cell binding, since antibody-complexed ads- viruses were able to infect Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing an immunoglobulin Fc receptor. These results confirm the essential role of the RGD sequence in binding of foot-and-mouth disease virus to susceptible cells and demonstrate that the natural cellular receptor for the virus serves only to bind virus to the cell.

Abstract
The foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) genome contains a 5' untranslated region (S fragment) capable of forming a stem-loop structure of over 350 bases, which is separated from the remainder of the genome by a homopolymeric cytidylic acid tract (poly(C)) of variable length. The sequence of the S fragment of serotype A12 appears more similar to those of type O1 or type C3 than to subtype A10. The relatively large difference between the S fragment sequences of two type A viruses suggests that the sequences per se of this region of the genome are not critical for the maintenance of function, and suggests the possibility of a relatively recent recombination event within the poly(C) region of the A12 genome.

Abstract
To determine the role of the poly(C) tract found at the 5' end of the genome of foot-and-mouth disease virus, synthetic RNAs (in vitro transcripts) with poly(C) tracts of different lengths have been produced and evaluated. RNAs with poly(C) tracts of 35, 25, 16, 6, or 2 residues displayed similar specific infectivities in baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells. Viruses recovered from cells transfected with in vitro transcripts containing 6 to 35 Cs had properties similar to those of the wild-type virus in cell culture, and poly(C) tracts present in the synthetic RNA-derived viruses ranged from 75 to 140 bases in length. Viruses recovered from transcripts containing only two Cs showed very different properties. Specifically, viruses grew to much lower levels in cell culture and maintained a poly(C) tract of only two residues. The pool of viruses harvested from cells transfected with the synthetic C2 RNA also contained a small amount of a virus with a 42-base deletion in the region of the poly(C) tract, which appeared to have arisen by recombination. Taken together, these data suggest that recombination provides the mechanism of poly(C) elongation and that viruses with poly(C) tracts over 75 bases in length have a selective advantage in cell culture. Interestingly, all of the in vitro transcript-derived viruses [including viruses with poly(C) tracts of only two residues] were equally virulent in mice, indicating that poly(C) tract length has no effect on virulence in this animal model.

Abstract
The authors compared loxapine with chlorpromazine in inpatients with paranoid schizophrenia and found no difference in clinical efficacy. Thus a previous finding, based on retrospective analyses, that loxapine was superior to other neuroleptics in the treatment of paranoid schizophrenia was not verified in this prospective study.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrase was localized in the chorioallantoic membrane with labeled inhibitor autoradiography of 3H-acetazolamide at 11, 14 and 19 days of incubation. At 11 days carbonic anhydrase was present in low amounts only in the undifferentiated ectoderm cells. At 14 and 19 days, the enzyme was found in increased amounts in all three germ layers of the chorioallantois. In the chorionic ectoderm the villous cavity cells contained the highest level of carbonic anhydrase. This finding lends support to the theory of H+ production to solubilize the CaCO3 of the egg shell. Sinus covering cells showed a considerable lower concentration of the enzyme than did villous cavity cells. Carbonic anhydrase in these cells may be multifunctional, assisting in calcium transport, subserving HCO3- transport from egg shell to blood, and supporting gaseous exchange. In the allantoic endoderm carbonic anhydrase was found in granule-rich cells and might be involved in the transport of Na+ and Cl- ions from allantoic fluid into the blood. The enzyme in the undifferentiated endoderm cells may have a respiratory function. In the mesoderm carbonic anhydrase was detected in the endothelium and pericytes of blood vessels where it is interpreted to support respiratory function.
