OXR1 maintains the retromer to delay brain aging under dietary restriction. Nat Commun 2024; 15:467. [PMID: 38212606 PMCID: PMC10784588 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-023-44343-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Dietary restriction (DR) delays aging, but the mechanism remains unclear. We identified polymorphisms in mtd, the fly homolog of OXR1, which influenced lifespan and mtd expression in response to DR. Knockdown in adulthood inhibited DR-mediated lifespan extension in female flies. We found that mtd/OXR1 expression declines with age and it interacts with the retromer, which regulates trafficking of proteins and lipids. Loss of mtd/OXR1 destabilized the retromer, causing improper protein trafficking and endolysosomal defects. Overexpression of retromer genes or pharmacological restabilization with R55 rescued lifespan and neurodegeneration in mtd-deficient flies and endolysosomal defects in fibroblasts from patients with lethal loss-of-function of OXR1 variants. Multi-omic analyses in flies and humans showed that decreased Mtd/OXR1 is associated with aging and neurological diseases. mtd/OXR1 overexpression rescued age-related visual decline and tauopathy in a fly model. Hence, OXR1 plays a conserved role in preserving retromer function and is critical for neuronal health and longevity.

Abstract
Tauopathies encompass a range of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Unfortunately, current treatment approaches for tauopathies have yielded limited success, underscoring the pressing need for novel therapeutic strategies. We observed distinct signatures of impaired glycogen metabolism in the Drosophila brain of the tauopathy model and the brain of AD patients, indicating a link between tauopathies and glycogen metabolism. We demonstrate that the breakdown of neuronal glycogen by activating glycogen phosphorylase (GlyP) ameliorates the tauopathy phenotypes in flies and induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) derived neurons from FTD patients. We observed that glycogen breakdown redirects the glucose flux to the pentose phosphate pathway to alleviate oxidative stress. Our findings uncover a critical role for increased GlyP activity in mediating the neuroprotection benefit of dietary restriction (DR) through the cAMP-mediated protein kinase A (PKA) activation. Our studies identify impaired glycogen metabolism as a key hallmark for tauopathies and offer a promising therapeutic target in tauopathy treatment.

Investigating two mobile just-in-time adaptive interventions to foster psychological resilience: research protocol of the DynaM-INT study. BMC Psychol 2023; 11:245. [PMID: 37626397 PMCID: PMC10464364 DOI: 10.1186/s40359-023-01249-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2023] [Accepted: 07/14/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stress-related disorders such as anxiety and depression are highly prevalent and cause a tremendous burden for affected individuals and society. In order to improve prevention strategies, knowledge regarding resilience mechanisms and ways to boost them is highly needed. In the Dynamic Modelling of Resilience - interventional multicenter study (DynaM-INT), we will conduct a large-scale feasibility and preliminary efficacy test for two mobile- and wearable-based just-in-time adaptive interventions (JITAIs), designed to target putative resilience mechanisms. Deep participant phenotyping at baseline serves to identify individual predictors for intervention success in terms of target engagement and stress resilience. METHODS DynaM-INT aims to recruit N = 250 healthy but vulnerable young adults in the transition phase between adolescence and adulthood (18-27 years) across five research sites (Berlin, Mainz, Nijmegen, Tel Aviv, and Warsaw). Participants are included if they report at least three negative burdensome past life events and show increased levels of internalizing symptoms while not being affected by any major mental disorder. Participants are characterized in a multimodal baseline phase, which includes neuropsychological tests, neuroimaging, bio-samples, sociodemographic and psychological questionnaires, a video-recorded interview, as well as ecological momentary assessments (EMA) and ecological physiological assessments (EPA). Subsequently, participants are randomly assigned to one of two ecological momentary interventions (EMIs), targeting either positive cognitive reappraisal or reward sensitivity. During the following intervention phase, participants' stress responses are tracked using EMA and EPA, and JITAIs are triggered if an individually calibrated stress threshold is crossed. In a three-month-long follow-up phase, parts of the baseline characterization phase are repeated. Throughout the entire study, stressor exposure and mental health are regularly monitored to calculate stressor reactivity as a proxy for outcome resilience. The online monitoring questionnaires and the repetition of the baseline questionnaires also serve to assess target engagement. DISCUSSION The DynaM-INT study intends to advance the field of resilience research by feasibility-testing two new mechanistically targeted JITAIs that aim at increasing individual stress resilience and identifying predictors for successful intervention response. Determining these predictors is an important step toward future randomized controlled trials to establish the efficacy of these interventions.

Abstract
Dietary restriction (DR) delays aging and neurodegeneration, but the mechanisms behind this remain unclear. We reared over 150 fully sequenced fly strains from the Drosophila Genetic Reference Panel under ad libitum feeding or diet-restricted conditions and measured lifespan as well as healthspan to identify new targets for DR-mediated longevity. Through genome-wide association study, we identified genetic variants associated with influencing these traits under each dietary condition. A variant in mustard (mtd, called Oxidation resistance 1, OXR1, in humans), significantly associated with DR-specific lifespan. We demonstrate that mtd/OXR1 in neurons is necessary for DR-mediated lifespan extension. Neuronal knockdown of mtd also accelerates sensory decline, arguing for a specific role of mtd/OXR1 in neuroprotection. We show that mtd is essential for stabilizing the retromer complex, which is necessary for trafficking transmembrane proteins and lipids for reuse. As a result of OXR1 deficiency, the retromer destabilizes and lysosomes become overused. Overexpression of retromer proteins or supplementation with chaperone compound R55 rescues the lifespan defects and neurodegeneration seen in mtd-deficient flies, and R55 is capable of rescuing lysosomal aggregation and OXR1-retromer co-localization in cells from humans with OXR1 deficiency. We further show through multi-omic analyses in flies and humans that mtd/OXR1 associates with accelerated transcriptomic aging and proteins involved in neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Overexpression of OXR1 and retromer proteins rescued AD-associated phenotypes in a fly model of AD. Thus, mtd/OXR1 enhances protein recycling in response to DR through the retromer, improving neuronal health and lifespan through mechanisms conserved across species.

LATE-LIFE MORTALITY GWAS IN FLIES IDENTIFIES DIABETES AND OBESITY REGULATED TO REGULATE MORTALITY AND RESILIENCE. Innov Aging 2022.

Abstract
Variations in rate of aging in geneticaly heterogenious populations supports the hypothesis that aging is at least partially genetically regulated. However, genetically identical individuals also vary in their time of death. We have observed in D. melanogaster that this variation is genotype-dependent, as specific genotypes have characteristic survival curve shapes that are largely reproducible. Typical aging studies reduce a strain’s lifespan down to a population-level value, i.e. mean lifespan. While these metrics can represent the trends in a population, they are unable to encapsulate the variation in the aging of individuals from the same distinct population. Instead, we used two values that characterize the logistic fit of a strain’s mortality late in life: the risk of initial mortality (α) and the rate of aging (β). To identify regulators of the rate of aging, we performed a Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) of β for 160 different fly strains from the DGRP collection on two different diets late in life. This approach identified the candidate gene Diabetes and Obesity-Regulated (DOR), which has known roles in stress response, autophagy, and senescence, as having a role in the late-life mortality. DOR inhibition leads to a significant increase in late-life mortality that is preceded by a reduction in healthspan-related traits. Further, germline-specific inhibition is sufficient to increase senescence-related factors and shorten lifespan. We conclude that a decrease in DOR, a conserved gene, compromises an organism’s resilience through increased inflammation, senescence, and increased mortality, providing a potential target for bolstering the decline seen in human aging.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Previous small observational studies have suggested a potential association of proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) and platelet reactivity. However, the role of the PCSK9 inhibitor alirocumab on platelet aggregation among patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains unknown.
Purpose
We investigated the effect of alirocumab on P2Y12 reaction unit (PRU) on top of high-intensity statin therapy among AMI patients receiving dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with a potent P2Y12 inhibitor (ticagrelor or prasugrel).
Methods
This was a pre-specified, powered, pharmacodynamic substudy nested within the PACMAN (effects of the PSCK9 antibody AliroCuMab on coronary Atherosclerosis in patieNts with Acute Myocardial Infarction) trial, a randomized, double-blind trial comparing biweekly alirocumab (150mg) versus placebo in AMI patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Patients recruited at Bern University Hospital, receiving DAPT with either ticagrelor or prasugrel at 4 weeks and adherent to the study drug (alirocumab or placebo) were analyzed for the current study. The VerifyNow P2Y12 point-of-care assays were used to measure PRU at baseline (i.e. before first study drug administration), 4 weeks, and 52 weeks after study drug administration (higher PRU levels indicating greater platelet aggregation). The primary endpoint was PRU at 4 weeks.
Results
Among 139 randomized patients (mean age 58.2 years [SD, 9.5], 21 [15.0%] women, mean LDL-C level 150.6mg/dL [SD, 30.9]), baseline characteristics were well balanced between groups including baseline PRU (50.0 [IQR, 120.0] in the alirocumab group vs. 62.0 [IQR, 122.0] in the placebo group, P=0.75). At 4 weeks, mean LDL-C was significantly lower in the alirocumab group (23.5 [SD, 23.7] mg/dL vs. 74.4 [SD, 30.5] mg/dL, P<0.001). The majority of patients received ticagrelor DAPT at 4 weeks (57 [86.4%] vs. 69 [94.5%], P=0.14). There were no significant differences in PRU at 4 weeks (12.5 [IQR, 27.0] vs. 19.0 [IQR, 30.0], P=0.26) and at 52 weeks (25.0 [IQR, 37.0] vs. 34.0 [IQR, 59.0], P=0.07) (Figure). Consistent results were observed in 126 patients treated with ticagrelor (i.e. after excluding 13 patients treated with prasugrel) at 4 weeks (13.0 [IQR, 20.0] vs. 18.0 [IQR, 27.0], P=0.28).
Conclusion
Among AMI patients receiving DAPT with potent P2Y12 inhibitors, alirocumab had no significant effect on platelet function as assessed by PRU.

Dietary restriction and the transcription factor clock delay eye aging to extend lifespan in Drosophila Melanogaster. Nat Commun 2022; 13:3156.

Abstract
Many vital processes in the eye are under circadian regulation, and circadian dysfunction has emerged as a potential driver of eye aging. Dietary restriction is one of the most robust lifespan-extending therapies and amplifies circadian rhythms with age. Herein, we demonstrate that dietary restriction extends lifespan in Drosophila melanogaster by promoting circadian homeostatic processes that protect the visual system from age- and light-associated damage. Altering the positive limb core molecular clock transcription factor, CLOCK, or CLOCK-output genes, accelerates visual senescence, induces a systemic immune response, and shortens lifespan. Flies subjected to dietary restriction are protected from the lifespan-shortening effects of photoreceptor activation. Inversely, photoreceptor inactivation, achieved via mutating rhodopsin or housing flies in constant darkness, primarily extends the lifespan of flies reared on a high-nutrient diet. Our findings establish the eye as a diet-sensitive modulator of lifespan and indicates that vision is an antagonistically pleiotropic process that contributes to organismal aging.

Abstract
Dietary restriction (DR) is the most robust method to delay aging and the onset of neurogenerative disorders across multiple species, though the mechanisms behind this phenomenon remain unknown. To elucidate how DR mediates lifespan extension, we analyzed natural genetic variants that associate with increased longevity under DR conditions in the Drosophila Genetic Reference Panel. We found that neuronal expression of the fly homolog of human Oxidation Resistance 1 (OXR1) is necessary for DR-mediated lifespan extension. Neuronal knockdown of OXR1 also accelerated visual decline but not physical decline, arguing for a specific role of OXR1 in neuronal signaling. Further, we find that overexpression of the TLDc domain from human OXR1 is sufficient for lifespan extension in a diet-dependent manner. Studies from the Accelerating Medicines Partnership - Alzheimer's Disease network show that patients with reduced OXR1 protein levels are more prone to Alzheimer's disease diagnosis, and we find that overexpression of human OXR1 is protective in animal and cell Alzheimer's models. In seeking the mechanism by which OXR1 protects against age-related neuronal decline, we discovered that it provides a necessary function in regulating the neuronal retromer complex, which is essential for the recycling of transmembrane receptors and for maintenance of autophagy. We further discovered that OXR1 deficiency can be rescued by genetic or pharmacological enhancement of retromer function, and that this enhancement extends lifespan and healthspan. Understanding how OXR1 operates could help uncover novel mechanisms to slow neurodegeneration including Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Several definitions of peri-procedural myocardial infarction (MI) requiring different biomarker thresholds with or without ancillary criteria for myocardial ischemia are currently recommended without being fully validated in real-world patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Objectives
We aimed to evaluate the prevalence and prognostic value of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin-based peri-procedural MI according to contemporary MI definitions using a large real-world PCI cohort.
Methods
In CCS patients undergoing elective PCI enrolled to the Bern PCI registry (NCT02241291) between 2010 and 2018, peri-procedural myocardial injury and infarction were assessed according to the 4th and 3rd universal definition of MI (UDMI), academic research consortium (ARC)-2, and Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) criteria. The primary endpoint was cardiac death at 1 year.
Results
Among 4404 CCS patients, peri-procedural MI defined by the 4th UDMI, 3rd UDMI, ARC-2, and SCAI were observed in 14.9%, 18.0%, 2.0%, and 2.0% of patients, respectively. Cardiac mortality at 1 year in patients with peri-procedural MI defined by 4th UDMI, 3rd UDMI, ARC-2, and SCAI were 3.0%, 2.9%, 5.8%, and 10.0%, respectively. After multivariate adjustments, peri-procedural MI defined by the ARC-2 and SCAI were independently associated with cardiac death at 1 year, while those defined by the 4th and 3rd UDMI were not.
Conclusion
Among CCS patients undergoing PCI, periprocedural MIs defined by theARC-2 and SCAI occurred 7 to 9 times less frequently as compared with the 4th and 3rd UDMI, and were the only definitions significantly associated with cardiac mortality.

miR-125-chinmo pathway regulates dietary restriction-dependent enhancement of lifespan in Drosophila. eLife 2021; 10:62621.

Abstract
Dietary restriction (DR) extends healthy lifespan in diverse species. Age and nutrient-related changes in the abundance of microRNAs (miRNAs) and their processing factors have been linked to organismal longevity. However, the mechanisms by which they modulate lifespan and the tissue-specific role of miRNA-mediated networks in DR-dependent enhancement of lifespan remains largely unexplored. We show that two neuronally enriched and highly conserved microRNAs, miR-125 and let-7 mediate the DR response in Drosophila melanogaster. Functional characterization of miR-125 demonstrates its role in neurons while its target chinmo acts both in neurons and the fat body to modulate fat metabolism and longevity. Proteomic analysis revealed that Chinmo exerts its DR effects by regulating the expression of FATP, CG2017, CG9577, CG17554, CG5009, CG8778, CG9527, and FASN1. Our findings identify miR-125 as a conserved effector of the DR pathway and open the avenue for this small RNA molecule and its downstream effectors to be considered as potential drug candidates for the treatment of late-onset diseases and biomarkers for healthy aging in humans.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Underlying plaque characteristics that lead to future revascularization during long-term follow-up remain poorly understood.
Purpose
We aimed to explore intracoronary imaging-derived measures as assessed by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) associated with non-infarct related vessel revascularization (non-TVR) arising from imaged segments during long-term (up to 7 years) follow-up among patients with ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Methods
A total of 94 STEMI patients enrolled into the IBIS-4 (Integrated Biomarker Imaging Study-4) study undergoing serial (baseline and 13 months) IVUS and OCT in 2 non-infarct-related coronary arteries under high-intensity statin therapy were analyzed in the present study. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the occurrence of non-TVR within previously imaged vessel segments (non-TVR: n=14, no non-TVR: n=80).
Results
Baseline characteristics including LDL level were comparable between groups. At baseline, lesions with future non-TVR were associated with greater percent atheroma volume by IVUS (55.6±5.4% vs. 49.6±6.1%, P<0.001), minimum lumen area by OCT (3.4±1.7 mm2 vs. 6.0±3.3 mm2, P=0.004), and a higher prevalence of fibroatheroma (60.0% vs. 20.1%, P=0.007) by OCT compared with those without. Among patients with serial imaging, lesions with non-TVR had a trend towards a less reduction of percent atheroma volume (−0.2±3.8% vs. −2.4±4.2%, P=0.083).
Conclusion
Greater plaque burden, smaller lumen area, and higher prevalence of OCT-detected fibroatheroma at baseline were associated with non-infarct related vessel revascularization. Lesions with non-TVR tend to have less-pronounced regression of coronary atheroma despite intensive statin therapy and achieved LDL levels.

Abstract
Lung ultrasound could facilitate the triage of patients with suspected COVID‐19 infection admitted to the emergency room. We developed a predictive model for COVID‐19 diagnosis based on lung ultrasound and clinical features. We used ultrasound to image the lung bilaterally at two anterior sites, one and two hands below each clavicle, and a posterolateral site that was the posterior transverse continuation from the lower anterior site. We studied 100 patients, 31 of whom had a COVID‐19 positive reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. A positive test was independently associated with: quick sequential organ failure assessment score ≥1; ≥3 B‐lines at the upper site; consolidation and thickened pleura at the lower site; and thickened pleura line at the posterolateral site. The model discrimination was an area (95%CI) under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.82 (0.75–0.90). The characteristics (95%CI) of the model’s diagnostic threshold, applied to the population from which it was derived, were: sensitivity, 97% (83–100%); specificity, 62% (50–74%); positive predictive value, 54% (41–98%); and negative predictive value, 98% (88–99%). This model may facilitate triage of patients with suspected COVID‐19 infection admitted to the emergency room.

Sarm1 induction and accompanying inflammatory response mediates age-dependent susceptibility to rotenone-induced neurotoxicity. Cell Death Discov 2018; 4:114.

Abstract
Aging is a complex biological process and environmental risk factors like pesticide exposure have been implicated in the increased incidence of age-related neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s disease (PD) but the etiology remains unknown. There is also lack of a proper animal model system to study the progressive effect of these environmental toxins on age-associated neurodegeneration. In this study, we established a drosophila model of aging to study the age-dependent vulnerability to the environmental toxin rotenone that has been implicated in sporadic cases of PD. We demonstrate that age plays a determining role in the increased susceptibility to chronic rotenone exposure that is accompanied by severe locomotor deficits, decreased lifespan and loss of dopaminergic (DA) neurons. Chronic low dose exposure to rotenone results in the rapid induction of the neurodegenerative molecule SARM1/dSarm. Further, the age-dependent dSarm induction is accompanied by a heightened inflammatory response (increased expression of Eiger and Relish) that is independent of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in the observed rotenone-induced neurotoxicity. dSarm induction and subsequent locomotor deficits is reversed in the presence of the anti-inflammatory molecule resveratrol. Thus, dSarm and heightened inflammatory responses may play a crucial role in age-dependent vulnerability to the pesticide rotenone thus making it an attractive target to help develop cost-effective therapeutic strategies to prevent ongoing dopaminergic neuronal loss as seen in PD.

Neuromuscular degeneration and locomotor deficit in a Drosophila model of mucopolysaccharidosis VII is attenuated by treatment with resveratrol. Dis Model Mech 2018; 11:dmm036954.

Abstract
Mucopolysaccharidosis VII (MPS VII) is a recessively inherited lysosomal storage disorder caused by β-glucuronidase enzyme deficiency. The disease is characterized by widespread accumulation of non-degraded or partially degraded glycosaminoglycans, leading to cellular and multiple tissue dysfunctions. The patients exhibit diverse clinical symptoms, and eventually succumb to premature death. The only possible remedy is the recently approved enzyme replacement therapy, which is an expensive, invasive and lifelong treatment procedure. Small-molecule therapeutics for MPS VII have so far remained elusive primarily due to lack of molecular insights into the disease pathogenesis and unavailability of a suitable animal model that can be used for rapid drug screening. To address these issues, we developed a Drosophila model of MPS VII by knocking out the CG2135 gene, the fly β-glucuronidase orthologue. The CG2135-/- fly recapitulated cardinal features of MPS VII, such as reduced lifespan, progressive motor impairment and neuropathological abnormalities. Loss of dopaminergic neurons and muscle degeneration due to extensive apoptosis was implicated as the basis of locomotor deficit in this fly. Such hitherto unknown mechanistic links have considerably advanced our understanding of the MPS VII pathophysiology and warrant leveraging this genetically tractable model for deeper enquiry about the disease progression. We were also prompted to test whether phenotypic abnormalities in the CG2135-/- fly can be attenuated by resveratrol, a natural polyphenol with potential health benefits. Indeed, resveratrol treatment significantly ameliorated neuromuscular pathology and restored normal motor function in the CG2135-/- fly. This intriguing finding merits further preclinical studies for developing an alternative therapy for MPS VII.This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.

Dynamic arterial elastance measured by uncalibrated pulse contour analysis predicts arterial-pressure response to a decrease in norepinephrine. Br J Anaesth 2018; 121:534-540.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dynamic arterial elastance (Eadyn) has been proposed as an indicator of vascular tone that predicts the decrease in arterial pressure in response to changes in norepinephrine (NE). The purpose of this study was to determine whether Eadyn measured by uncalibrated pulse contour analysis (UPCA) can predict a decrease in arterial pressure when the NE dosage is decreased. METHODS We conducted a prospective study in a university hospital intensive care unit. Patients with vasoplegic syndrome for whom the intensive care physician planned to decrease the NE dosage were included. Haemodynamic and UPCA (VolumeView and FloTrac; Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA, USA) values were obtained before and after decreasing the NE dosage. Responders were defined by a >10% decrease in mean arterial pressure (MAP). RESULTS Of 35 patients included, 11 (31%) were pressure responders with a median decrease of 13%. Eadyn was correlated to systolic arterial pressure (SAP) (r=0.255; P=0.033), diastolic arterial pressure (r=0.271; P=0.024), MAP (r=0.310; P=0.009), heart rate (r=0.543; P=0.0001), and transthoracic echography cardiac output (r=0.264; P=0.024). Baseline Eadyn was correlated with MAP changes (r=0.394; P=0.019) and SAP changes (r=0.431; P=0.009). Eadyn predicted the decrease in arterial pressure with an area under the receiver-operating-characteristic curve of 0.84 (95% confidence interval: 0.70-0.97). The best cut-off was 0.90. CONCLUSIONS The present study confirms the ability of Eadyn measured by UPCA to predict an arterial pressure response to a decrease in NE. Eadyn may constitute an easy-to-use functional approach to arterial tone assessment regardless of the monitor used to measure its determinant. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION DRCIT95.

Abstract
A novel transcript of the Duchenne muscular dystrophy gene has been identified. This 6.5 kb mRNA contains sequences from the 3' untranslated region of dystrophin mRNA and from the regions coding for the C-terminal and the cysteine-rich domains. However, probes for the regions encoding the spectrin-like repeats and the actin-binding domain, as well as probes for the first exons of the muscle- and brain-type dystrophin mRNA, did not hybridize with this new mRNA. Significant amounts of the 6.5 kb mRNA were found in a variety of non-muscle tissues, such as liver, testis, lung and kidney, but not in skeletal muscle. The abundance of this mRNA in the brain is at least as high as that of the previously described 14 kb brain-type dystrophin mRNA.

Abstract
It is now widely accepted that immunocompetent lymphocytes in allogeneic bone marrow grafts exert an antileukemic effect that contributes to the cure of leukemia. Graft vs leukemia (GVL) effects independent of graft vs host disease were investigated in allogeneic bone marrow chimeras tolerant of host and donor alloantigens. The role of Thy1.2, L3T4 and Lyt2 T lymphocytes as effector cells of GVL were investigated in (BALB/c x C57BL/6)F1 mice inoculated with murine B-cell leukemia and subsequently conditioned with total lymphoid irradiation and cyclophosphamide (200 mg/kg). Mice were reconstituted with C57BL/6 bone marrow cells depleted of well-defined T-cell subsets or enriched for stem cells by the soybean agglutination method. Detection of residual tumor cells, an indicator for efficacy of GVL, was carried out by adoptive transfer of peripheral blood or spleen cells obtained from treated chimeras into secondary naive BALB/c recipients at different time intervals following bone marrow transplantation. Treatment of the primary marrow inoculum with monoclonal anti-Thy1.2 or anti-Lyt2 abolished the GVL effects and all secondary BALB/c recipients developed leukemia within 60 days. On the other hand, the treatment with monoclonal anti-L3T4 did not influence the effect of GVL and all treated recipients remained without leukemia. The data suggest that T cells may mediate GVL effects in the absence of graft vs host disease and in circumstances where tolerance to conventional alloantigens is elicited. Effector cells of GVL across the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) in the murine B-cell leukemia tumor model system appear to be Thy1.2+ Lyt2+ L3T4-. Induction of GVL effects by allogeneic cells tolerant of host MHC suggests that these effects may be independent of graft vs host disease.

Abstract
The surgical approach to orbital tumor removal is a matter of surgical strategy and preference. Different procedures have been developed, each with its pros and cons. The frontal selective orbitotomy for removal of orbital tumors is a versatile technique with physiologic cuts, relatively small incisions, lesion orientation, fast repair, and minimal trauma. Six case reports demonstrate the use of this technique and its advantages.

Abstract
We used an intrascleral implantation technique to anchor a keratoprosthesis in the limbal sclera of 22 rabbits' eyes. The tangential-radial traction used in this procedure enabled multivectorial traction forces to be applied while maintaining a tight junction between the biological tissue and the foreign material. During 29 weeks of follow-up there was no postoperative leakage, no cataracts developed, and the anterior chamber was maintained in all the eyes at all times. No ocular infection developed in any eye during the first postoperative month. The compound-force traction used in this procedure may prove useful in other areas of ocular surgery.

Abstract
An experimental design of keratoprosthesis anchored into the limbal sclera is presented. The surgical procedure enables a watertight junction between the keratoprosthesis and the globe. Dehiscence of the keratoprosthesis-limbal sclera junction occurs when an area of locus resistentia minoris is created in the lower limbus. An artificial drainage system is necessary for the durability of such a keratoprosthesis.

Complementation of the UV-sensitive phenotype of a xeroderma pigmentosum human cell line by transfection with a cDNA clone library. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 1987; 84:8801-4.

Abstract
In previous work, a xeroderma pigmentosum cell line belonging to complementation group C was established by transformation with origin-defective simian virus 40. We now report the complementation of the UV sensitivity of this cell line by gene transfer. A human cDNA clone library constructed in a mammalian expression vector, and itself incorporated in a lambda phage vector, was introduced into the cells as a calcium phosphate precipitate. Following selection to G418 resistance, provided by the neo gene of the vector, transformants were selected for UV resistance. Twenty-one cell clones were obtained with UV-resistance levels typical of normal human fibroblasts. All transformants contained vector DNA sequences in their nuclei. Upon further propagation in the absence of selection for G418 resistance, about half of the primary transformants remained UV-resistant. Secondary transformants were generated by transfection with a partial digest of total chromosomal DNA from one of these stable transformants. This resulted in 15 G418-resistant clones, 2 of which exhibited a UV-resistant phenotype. The other primary clones lost UV resistance rapidly when subcultured in the absence of G418. Importantly, several retained UV resistance under G418 selection pressure. The acquisition of UV resistance by secondary transformants derived by transfection of DNA from a stable primary transformant, and the linkage between G418 and UV resistances in the unstable primary transformants, strongly suggests that the transformants acquired UV resistance through DNA-mediated gene transfer and not by reversion.

Abstract
Using isolated cartilage cells from the epiphyseal growth plate of rachitic chicks and utilizing the fluorescence indicator quin2 for measurements of cytosolic free calcium, it has been possible to demonstrate that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 regulates the concentrations of cytosolic free calcium. The reduction in cytosolic free calcium is associated with inhibition of the activity of alkaline phosphatase. As several hours are required before an effect on cytosolic free calcium can be observed in the cells, it is suggested that the action is dependent on genomic interactions.

Abstract
Allogeneic bone marrow (BM) chimeras induced by infusion of BM cells into recipients conditioned with total lymphoid irradiation (TLI) were shown to develop humoral and cell-mediated tolerance to host and donor-type alloantigens by a number of in vitro and in vivo assays. Spleen cells of tolerant chimeras exhibited suppressive activity of mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR). MLR suppression was not abrogated by depletion of Lyt-2 cells, and neither could Lyt-2-positive cells sorted from the spleens of tolerant chimeras suppress MLR or attenuate graft-versus-host reactivity in vivo. Likewise, specifically unresponsive spleen cells obtained from chimeras could not be induced to respond in MLR against tolerizing host-type cells following depletion of Lyt-2 or passage through a nylon-wool column. Tolerance of chimera spleen cells to host alloantigens, best documented by permanent survival of donor-type skin allografts, could be adoptively transferred into syngeneic recipients treated by heavy irradiation but not into untreated or mildly irradiated recipients. Adoptive transfer of tolerance seemed to be associated with experimental conditions favoring engraftment of tolerant cells rather than suppression of host reactivity. We speculate that although host and/or donor-derived suppressor cells may be operating in reducing the pool of specific alloreactive clones by blocking cell proliferation in response to allogeneic challenge, the final outcome in tolerant chimeras is actual or functional deletion of alloreactive clones.

Abstract
Transplantation tolerance and stable chimerism were established in adult mice conditioned with a short course of total-lymphoid irradiation (TLI) followed by infusion of 30 X 10(6) allogeneic bone marrow cells. Spleen cells of tolerant mice could not exert a proliferative or cytotoxic response against host-type cells in vitro and were unable to induce graft-versus-host reaction in secondary host-type recipients. The degree of suppression assessed by coculturing tolerant splenocytes in vitro in the one-way mixed lymphocyte reaction was quite variable--and, in some cases, was not at all demonstrable, although tolerance was clearly maintained. Suppression, when apparent, could not be ascribed to T lymphocytes. Suppressor cells were found to bind soybean agglutinin and could be separated from the nonsuppressive cells by means of this lectin. Dissociation of the suppressive population (SBA+ cells) from that which is normally alloreactive (SBA- cells) resulted in a suppressor cell-depleted fraction that was still unable to respond to host-type cells but regained reactivity to unrelated cells. Limiting dilution analysis of chimeric splenocytes revealed markedly reduced frequencies of cytotoxic T lymphocyte precursors (CTL-P) directed against host-type cells, as compared with normal splenocytes reacting against the same target cells. This difference was accentuated when these cells were sensitized to host-type target cells prior to plating in limiting dilution cultures. In 1:1 mixing experiments of normal and chimeric splenocytes, there was no evidence of any in vitro suppressive activity to account for hyporeactivity of chimeric cells against host-type cells. Thus, maintenance of TLI-induced tolerance seemed not to be mediated primarily through an active suppressor cell mechanism.

Abstract
Cataracts developed in two young adults who were receiving prolonged antiepileptic treatment with phenobarbital sodium and phenytoin sodium. The known side effects of these drugs are serious and varied, and phenytoin is strongly implicated in the etiology of cataracts in human beings. Results of our research study on rats supported our view on the cataractogenic action of phenytoin.
