Abstract
Structural insights into the photoactivated adenylate cyclases can be used to develop new ways of controlling cellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels for optogenetic and other applications. In this work, we use an integrative approach that combines biophysical and structural biology methods to provide insight on the interaction of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) with the dark-adapted state of the photoactivated adenylate cyclase from the cyanobacterium Oscillatoria acuminata (OaPAC). A moderate affinity of the nucleotide for the enzyme was calculated and the thermodynamic parameters of the interaction have been obtained. Stopped-flow fluorescence spectroscopy and small-angle solution scattering have revealed significant conformational changes in the enzyme, presumably in the adenylate cyclase (AC) domain during the allosteric mechanism of ATP binding to OaPAC with small and large-scale movements observed to the best of our knowledge for the first time in the enzyme in solution upon ATP binding. These results are in line with previously reported drastic conformational changes taking place in several class III AC domains upon nucleotide binding.

Abstract
Hard x rays from a synchrotron source are used in this implementation of computed laminography for three-dimensional (3D) imaging of flat, laterally extended objects. Due to outstanding properties of synchrotron light, high spatial resolution down to the micrometer scale can be attained, even for specimens having lateral dimensions of several decimeters. Operating either with a monochromatic or with a white synchrotron beam, the method can be optimized to attain high sensitivity or considerable inspection throughput in synchrotron user and small-batch industrial experiments. The article describes the details of experimental setups, alignment procedures, and the underlying reconstruction principles. Imaging of interconnections in flip-chip and wire-bonded devices illustrates the peculiarities of the method compared to its alternatives and demonstrates the wide application potential for the 3D inspection and quality assessment in microsystem technology.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Surgical removal of giant cystic vestibular schwannomas is difficult because of adherences between the cyst membrane, brainstem, and the VII-VIII nerve complex. The recurrence of the cyst is frequent and requires reoperation. The aim of this study was to analyze the role of the palliative cystoperitoneal shunt in giant cystic vestibular schwannomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty-eight patients with a diagnosis of stage III or IV vestibular schwannoma were managed surgically from January 2000 to December 2005 in our department. Six schwannomas were deemed to be cystic according to the following criteria: a voluminous cystic component with mass effect causing symptoms as well as radiological and intraoperative identification of cystic elements. RESULTS Complete tumor removal was achieved in two patients. After a follow-up of 5 and 7 years, these patients were asymptomatic. In four cases, we performed cyst drainage. For three patients, we implanted a permanent cystoperitoneal shunt. These patients were asymptomatic with a mean follow-up of 19.7 months. CONCLUSIONS The cystoperitoneal shunt with no valve is a valid palliative surgical solution to remove brain stem compression. Neuronavigation allows proper positioning of the drain and secures the procedure.

Abstract
The solvation dynamics of excess electrons in glycerol have been measured by the pump-probe femtosecond laser technique at 333 K. The electrons are produced by two-photon absorption at 263 nm. The change in the induced absorbance is followed up to 450 ps in the spectral range from 440 to 720 nm. The transient signals of electron solvation have been analyzed by two kinetic models: a stepwise mechanism and a continuous relaxation model, using a Bayesian data analysis method. The results are compared with those previously published for ethylene glycol (J. Phys. Chem. A 2006, 110, 175) and for propanediols (J. Phys. Chem. A 2007, 111, 4902). From the comparison, it is pointed out that solvation dynamics in glycerol is very fast despite its high viscosity. This is interpreted as the existence of efficient traps for the electrons in glycerol with low potential energy. The small shift of the absorption band of the excess electron indicates that the potential of these traps is very close to that corresponding to the fully solvated electron.

Abstract
Solvated electrons have been produced in ethylene glycol by two-photon ionization of the solvent with 263 nm femtosecond laser pulses. The two-photon absorption coefficient of ethylene glycol at 263 nm is determined to be beta = (2.1 +/- 0.2) x 10(-11) m W(-1). The dynamics of electron solvation in ethylene glycol has been studied by pump-probe transient absorption spectroscopy. So, time-resolved absorption spectra ranging from 430 to 710 nm have been measured. A blue shift of the spectra is observed for the first tens of picoseconds. Using the Bayesian data analysis method, the observed solvation dynamics are reconstructed with different models: stepwise mechanisms, continuous relaxation models, or combinations of stepwise and continuous relaxation. Comparison between models is in favor of continuous relaxation, which is mainly governed by solvent molecular motions.

Abstract
Temporal evolution of transient absorption spectra of electrons produced by two-photon ionization of two isomers, propane-1,2-diol (12PD) and propane-1,3-diol (13PD), with 263 nm femtosecond laser pulses has been studied on picosecond time scale. The two-photon absorption coefficients of 12PD and 13PD at 263 nm were determined to be beta = (2.0 +/- 0.3) x 10(-11) and (2.4 +/- 0.3) x 10(-11) m W(-1), respectively. Time-resolved absorption spectra ranging from 440 to 720 nm have been measured, showing a blue shift for the first tens of picoseconds for both solvents. However, the observed solvation dynamics of electron appears faster in 13PD than in 12PD. The transient signals of electron solvation have then been reconstructed with different models (stepwise mechanism or continuous relaxation model) using a Bayesian data analysis method. Results are discussed, compared with those previously obtained in ethylene glycol (J. Phys. Chem. A 2006, 110, 1705) and corroborate the interpretation, according to which the solvation of electrons is mainly governed by continuous solvent molecular motions.

Abstract
Spinal arachnoid cysts are considered to be rare entities, intradural locations are even less common. We report two cases of patients (two women aged 77- and 21-year-old) who presented spinal cord compression by intradural arachnoid cysts. For the second patient, repeated surgical procedures were necessary to improve the neurological status. After presenting the case reports, we expose the pathophysiological mechanisms and clinical features, and the surgical difficulties of treating this rare cause of spinal cord compression.

Abstract
The authors present the results of neuronavigation as a help to open neurosurgery for the tumors of the third ventricle. From January, 1995 to August, 1999, six image-guided surgical procedures were performed to remove third ventricle lesions : 4 colloïd cysts, 1 ependymoma, and 1 craniopharyngioma. The operative approach was transcortical in 5 cases, and transcallosal in 1 case. The use of neuronavigation allows a decrease of the surgical trauma during the surgical approach. The procedure secures the neurosurgeon in the choice and execution of his pathway to the target. It becomes however less accurate after opening the ventricle, because of the brainshift induced by the loss of cerebrospinal fluid becomes important. Nevertheless, neuronavigation is useful in the surgery of the third ventricle, especially if it is used with neuroendoscopy.

Abstract
Several hard X-rays imaging techniques greatly benefit from the coherence of the beams delivered by the modern synchrotron radiation sources. This is illustrated with examples recorded on the 'long' (145 m) ID19 'imaging' beamline of the ESRF. Phase imaging is directly related to the small angular size of the source as seen from one point of the sample ('effective divergence' approximately microradians). When using the ;propagation' technique, phase radiography and tomography are instrumentally very simple. They are often used in the 'edge detection' regime, where the jumps of density are clearly observed. The in situ damage assessment of micro-heterogeneous materials is one example of the many applications. Recently a more quantitative approach has been developed, which provides a three-dimensional density mapping of the sample ('holotomography'). The combination of diffraction topography and phase-contrast imaging constitutes a powerful tool. The observation of holes of discrete sizes in quasicrystals, and the investigation of poled ferroelectric materials, result from this combination.

Abstract
hCG is known to be produced by trophoblastic cells as well as by many normal tissues and malignancies. hCG is considered as a reliable marker for gonadal and extra gonadal choriocarcinomas; moreover it has been evidenced by immunohistochemical techniques in other malignancies. In this study, hCG and/or its alpha and beta subunits were detected in 73 males. Intact hCG was detected in 48 patients with gonadal tumors (n = 37) or extragonadal malignancies (n = 11), with or without free alpha or beta subunits. In the other 25 patients, native hCG was not detected but there were significant amounts of free beta subunit in 8 germ cells tumors and 17 extragonadal tumors. The production of free beta chains is correlated with a severe evolution in extragonadal tumors. hCG should be considered as a good marker for many tumors, but it is absolutely necessary to evaluate intact hCG as well as free beta chains.

Abstract
Two patients presenting with L5 radiculagia were investigated by CT scan imaging. The origin of the pain was determined with certitude as arising from intraspinal development of an interapophyseal synovial cyst. Examination of the two cases by MR imaging provided conflicting results: in one patient images obtained by MR were not contributive and the synovial cyst would probably have been missed while in the other patient images were specific and very sensitive for diagnosis of interapophyseal synovial lesions. Treatment was surgical in both cases.

Abstract
Ten cases of limb injuries including vascular and nervous lesions are reported. After pointing out the modalities of diagnosis, the authors describe the surgical technic: vascular management first, and then nervous repair. After a six months to three years follow-up, among eight cases, the vascular repair is successful every time, and the nervous repair five times. Although each technic is usually easy, the association of both lesions needs the collaboration of multidisciplinary surgical teams.

Abstract
Synchrotron radiation was used to follow the time course of the transitions, induced by temperature jump, in Escherichia coli membranes and their lipid extracts isolated from a fatty acid auxotroph grown with different fatty acids. We measured the relaxation times associated with the phase transitions as well as with the conformational transition of the hydrocarbon chains and observed different behavior as a function of chemical composition. Relaxation times of about 1-2 s were found at a hexagonal to lamellar phase transition and within a lamellar phase whose parameters display important variations with temperature when the conformational transition takes place. On the other hand, no delay was observed for a phase transition where large lipid or water diffusion was not needed. We have shown that phase transitions and conformational transitions are, to a large extent, uncoupled and that the relaxation times corresponding to the latter transition could be related to the size of the ordered domains. In all cases, the order to disorder conformational transition is more rapid than the disorder to order transition. Finally, the relaxation times of the disorder to order transition observed with the membranes and with their lipid extracts were found to be strongly correlated, indicating that the proteins do not play a role in this transition.
