Abstract
ABSTRACT Haischer, MH, Cooke, DM, Carzoli, JP, Johnson, TK, Shipherd, AM, Zoeller, RF, Whitehurst, M, and Zourdos, MC. Impact of cognitive measures and sleep on acute squat strength performance and perceptual responses among well-trained men and women. J Strength Cond Res 35(2S): S16-S22, 2021-This study assessed the efficacy of currently used assessments for sleep, anxiety, and stress in predicting 1-repetition maximum (1RM) back squat performance. Fifty-three men (age, 23 ± 3 years; body mass, 86.67 ± 13.93 kg; training age, 6.0 ± 2.5 years; 1RM = 163.5 ± 39.5 kg) and 15 women (age, 21 ± 1.5 years; body mass, 63.34 ± 9.6 kg; training age, 4 ± 1.5 years; 1RM = 81.5 ± 12.5 kg) participated. Subjects completed the Daily Analysis of Life Demands for Athletes (DALDA), the revised Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 (CSAI-2R), and Oviedo Sleep Questionnaire (OSQ) to evaluate stress, anxiety, and sleep, respectively. Subjects then completed the perceived self-efficacy (PSE) scale, to predict what loads they were 100, 75, and 50% confident that they could lift for a 1RM; then completed 1RM testing with rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and average concentric velocity (ACV) obtained on each attempt. The performance-dependent variable was calculated by subtracting the PSE responses from the actual 1RM (1RM-PSE difference). Bootstrapping with 1,000 replicate samples was used with linear regression to increased robustness of the statistical analyses, and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. Hours of sleep was an inverse predictor of ACV (p = 0.014; 95% CI = 0.046 to-0.011) and a positive predictor of RPE (p = 0.005; 95% CI = 0.068-0.342). Furthermore, the hypersomnia subscale of the OSQ was a negative predictor of 1RM-PSE difference at 50% confidence (p = 0.028; 95% CI = -3.507 to -0.528), and CSAI-2R total score was a negative predictor of RPE at 1RM (p = 0.043; 95% CI = -0.041 to -0.003); however, the DALDA did not exhibit any significant relationships. These data highlight the importance of monitoring anxiety and sleep when assessing readiness for maximal strength performance.

Abstract
This study examined if acute multi-joint resistance exercises (RE; back squat, bench press, and deadlift) to volitional failure elicited a postexercise increase in the circulating response of biomarkers associated with neuroprotection. Thirteen males (age: 24.5 ± 3.8 years, body mass: 84.01 ± 15.44 kg, height: 173.43 ± 8.57 cm, training age: 7.1 ± 4.2 years) performed 4 sets to failure at 80% of a 1-repetition maximum on the squat, bench press, and deadlift in successive weeks. The measured biomarkers were brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), cathepsin B (CatB), and interleukin 6 (IL-6). Biomarkers were assessed immediately before and 10-min after exercise. There was a main time effect (pre-exercise: 24.00 ± 0.61 to postexercise: 27.38 ± 0.48 ng/mL; p < 0.01) for BDNF with increases in the deadlift (p = 0.01) and bench press (p = 0.01) conditions, but not in the squat condition (p = 0.21). There was a main time effect (pre-exercise: 0.87 ± 0.16 to postexercise: 2.03 ± 0.32 pg/mL; p < 0.01) for IL-6 with a significant increase in the squat (p < 0.01), but not the bench press (p = 0.88) and deadlift conditions (p = 0.24). No main time effect was observed for either CatB (p = 0.62) or IGF-1 (p = 0.56). In summary, acute multi-joint RE increases circulating BDNF. Further, this investigation is the first to report the lack of a transient change of CatB to an acute RE protocol. Novelty Low-volume RE to failure can increase BDNF. Resistance training does not confer an acute Cat B response.

Abstract
This study examined the time course of recovery following resistance exercise sessions in the back squat, bench press, and deadlift. Twelve well-trained males (age: 24.5 ± 3.8 years, body mass: 84.01 ± 15.44 kg, training age: 7.1 ± 4.2 years) performed 4 sets to failure at 80% of a 1-repetition maximum (1RM) on the squat, bench press, and deadlift in successive weeks. The bench press was always performed in week 2 with the squat and deadlift order counterbalanced between weeks 1 and 3. Indirect muscle damage and performance fatigue was assessed immediately before and after exercise and at 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, and 96 h postexercise. Outcome measures included limb swelling, joint range of motion, delayed onset muscle soreness, average concentric velocity (ACV) at 70% of 1RM, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, and cell-free DNA (cfDNA). Most measures demonstrated a main time effect (p < 0.05) within conditions; however, no between condition (p > 0.05) differences existed. ACV decreased in the squat condition for up to 72 h (p = 0.02, –8.61%) and in the bench press (p < 0.01, –26.69%) immediately postexercise but did not decline during the deadlift condition (p > 0.05). There was a main time effect for increased cfDNA in the squat (p < 0.01) and bench press (p < 0.05), but not the deadlift (p = 0.153). Further, immediately postexercise increases in cfDNA were directly related (p < 0.05) to changes in ACV in all 3 conditions. These results suggest that the deadlift does not result in greater muscle damage and recovery time than the squat and bench press following volume-type training in well-trained men. Further, acute changes in cfDNA may predict performance during the recovery period.

Abstract
Purpose: To investigate differences between rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and percentage one-repetition maximum (1RM) load assignment in resistance-trained males (19-35 years) performing protocols with matched sets and repetitions differentiated by load-assignment. Methods: Participants performed squats then bench press 3x/weeks in a daily undulating format over 8-weeks. Participants were counterbalanced by pre-test 1RM then assigned to percentage 1RM (1RMG, n = 11); load-assignment via percentage 1RMs, or RPE groups (RPEG, n = 10); participant-selected loads to reach target RPE ranges. Ultrasonography determined pre and post-test pectoralis (PMT), and vastus lateralis muscle thickness at 50 (VLMT50) and 70% (VLMT70) femur-length. Results: Bench press (1RMG +9.64 ± 5.36; RPEG + 10.70 ± 3.30 kg), squat (1RMG + 13.91 ± 5.89; RPEG + 17.05 ± 5.44 kg) and their combined-total 1RMs (1RMG + 23.55 ± 10.38; RPEG + 27.75 ± 7.94 kg) increased (p < 0.05) in both groups as did PMT (1RMG + 1.59 ± 1.33; RPEG +1.90 ± 1.91 mm), VLMT50 (1RMG +2.13 ± 1.95; RPEG + 1.85 ± 1.97 mm) and VLMT70 (1RMG + 2.40 ± 2.22; RPEG + 2.31 ± 2.27 mm). Between-group differences were non-significant (p > 0.05). Magnitude-based inferences revealed 79, 57, and 72% chances of mean small effect size (ES) advantages for squat; ES 90% confidence limits (CL) = 0.50 ± 0.63, bench press; ES 90% CL = 0.28 ± 0.73, and combined-total; ES 90% CL = 0.48 ± 0.68 respectively, in RPEG. There were 4, 14, and 6% chances 1RMG had a strength advantage of the same magnitude, and 18, 29, and 22% chances, respectively of trivial differences between groups. Conclusions: Both loading-types are effective. However, RPE-based loading may provide a small 1RM strength advantage in a majority of individuals.

Abstract
Body size often shows adaptive clines in many ectotherms across altitude and latitude, but little is known about the genetic basis of these adaptive clines. Here we identify a polymorphism in the Dca (Drosophila cold acclimation) gene in Drosophila melanogaster that influences wing size, affects wing:thorax allometry and also controls a substantial proportion of the clinal wing-size variation. A polymorphism in the promoter region of Dca had two common alleles showing strong reciprocal clinal variation in frequency with latitude along the east coast of Australia. The Dca-237 allele increased towards the tropics where wing size is smaller. A within-population association study highlighted that an increase in the frequency of this allele decreased wing size but did not influence thorax size. A manipulated increase in the level of expression of Dca achieved through UAS-GAL4 was associated with a decrease in wing size but had no effect on thorax size. This was consistent with higher Dca expression levels in family lines with higher frequency of the Dca-237 allele. Genetic variation in the promoter region of the Dca gene appears to influence adaptive size variation in the eastern Australian cline of Drosophila melanogaster and accounts for more than 10% of the genetic variation in size within and between populations.

Abstract
PARP is a multifunctional protein that can affect genome stability, transcription control, telomere length and cell death. Recently we have reported that PARP binds to and enhances B-MYB transactivating potential. B-MYB is a potentially oncogenic transcription factor involved in mammalian cell proliferation, survival and differentiation. B-MYB gene expression is growth regulated and B-MYB protein is phosphorylated during S phase by cyclin A or E/cdk2 kinase, resulting in augmented transactivating potential. Here we show that PARP induces phosphorylation of B-MYB protein at cdk2 phosphorylation sites, since a B-MYB protein with mutated cdk2 phosphorylation sites is refractory to PARP-induced phosphorylation and co-activation in mammalian cells. We propose that PARP functions as a B-MYB co-factor by promoting cyclin/cdk2-dependent B-MYB phosphorylation. These results highlight a novel role for PARP as a factor that integrates cyclin-dependent kinases signaling with gene transcription.

Abstract
Physicians' interest in investing and practicing in independent ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) has grown. In the face of physician involvement in ASC development, healthcare organizations must contend with possible loss of surgical volume and revenues as well as decreased physician support and loyalty to the organization. Healthcare organizations can encourage physicians to remain in the organization by addressing physicians' concerns about the financial prospects and efficiency of independent and hospital-based ambulatory surgical arenas.

Abstract
The transcription factor B-Myb is a cell cycle-regulated phosphoprotein and a potent regulator of cell cycle progression. Previous studies demonstrated that B-Myb was phosphorylated at the onset of S phase, suggesting that it could be due to cyclin-dependent kinases. We identified 10 B-Myb phosphorylation sites by automated peptide radiosequencing of tryptic phosphopeptides derived from in vivo (32)P-labeled B-Myb. Each B-Myb phosphorylation site contained a phosphoserine or phosphothreonine followed by a proline, suggesting that this phosphorylation is due to a proline-directed kinase. Cyclin A-Cdk2 and cyclin E-Cdk2 complexes each phosphorylated B-Myb in a cell-free system on the same sites as in intact cells. Furthermore, the ability of B-Myb to activate a reporter plasmid was enhanced by the cotransfection of cyclin A, whereas mutagenesis of the 10 identified phosphorylation sites from B-Myb blocked the effect of cyclin A coexpression. Additional analysis revealed that the effect of phosphorylation on B-Myb transactivation potential was enhanced by phosphorylation sites in its carboxyl-terminal half. One phosphorylation site (Ser(581)) appeared to negatively regulate DNA binding, as mutation of this site enhanced the ability of B-Myb to bind a Myb-binding sequence. These data suggest that B-Myb is a target for phosphorylation by cyclin-Cdk2 and that phosphorylation of B-Myb regulates its transcriptional activity.

Abstract
The MABDOSE software represents a general tool to perform internal radiation dosimetry. It uses a three-dimensional lattice in which to conduct radiation transport, scoring energy deposition in discrete voxels. The dosimetry system currently relies on the same algorithm used by the MIRD committee for photon transport, and assumes local deposition of particulate energy. A mathematical description of the dosimetry system's implementation is given. Additionally, a characterization of the system with respect to memory requirements, data libraries used, and simulation timing benchmarks, is presented. Validation of the software is presented in a companion manuscript.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The MABDOSE software represents a general tool to assess internal radiation dose. A suite of tests are described that validate the dosimetry system's implementation. METHODS The validation suite is divided among tests that verify target digitalization, tumor digitalization and organ replacement, cumulated activity calculation, random number generation, radiation transport, and dose calculation. RESULTS A comparison between Reference Man organ volumes and MABDOSE organ volumes at (5 mm)3 resolution demonstrates volume correspondence within 10% save for ten organs having dimensions smaller than the target lattice resolution. An accounting of normal organ volume replaced by an arbitrary tumor volume indicates mass is conserved. A comparison between cumulated activities generated by MABDOSE and solutions obtained analytically demonstrates exact correspondence for curve-fitting algorithms. For mathematical modeling algorithms, cumulated activity solutions converge to their correct values provided sufficient data of high precision are input, accompanied by reasonable initial estimates of rate constants. A comparison of MABDOSE results with the MIRD 3 report demonstrates good agreement (<8% difference) in absorbed fractions for spheres at energies from 20 keV to 2.75 MeV. A comparison of MABDOSE results with the Cristy-Eckerman report demonstrates marginal agreement (specific absorbed fractions within a factor of 2 for all Reference Man organs) at simulation energies of 20, 50, and 100 keV. Lack of exact correspondence is attributed to volume digitalization errors, and to differences in cross-section libraries, interpolation schemes between cross-section data points, and random number generators. Finally, the doses reported by MABDOSE correspond to the correct algebraic combination of paired cumulated activities and "S" values. CONCLUSIONS The MABDOSE program has been validated as a general purpose computation tool for use in internal radionuclide dosimetry.

Abstract
Abdominal organ segmentation is highly desirable but difficult, due to large differences between patients and to overlapping grey-scale values of the various tissue types. The first step in automating this process is to cluster together the pixels within each organ or tissue type. We propose to form images based on second-order statistical texture transforms (Haralick transforms) of a CT or MRI scan. The original scan plus the suite of texture transforms are then input into a Hopfield neural network (HNN). The network is constructed to solve an optimization problem, where the best solution is the minima of a Lyapunov energy function. On a sample abdominal CT scan, this process successfully clustered 79-100% of the pixels of seven abdominal organs. It is envisioned that this is the first step to automate segmentation. Active contouring (e.g., SNAKE's) or a back-propagation neural network can then be used to assign names to the clusters and fill in the incorrectly clustered pixels.

Abstract
A methodology for correcting scintillation camera nonuniformity resulting from spatial linearity distortion is described. The method simultaneously corrects for both variations in count density and distortions in spatial linearity without altering the intrinsic sensitivity or resolution of the imaging system. This approach to linearity correction requires only a single flood image from which the spatial shift vectors are derived. The algorithm has been implemented on a PC-based, EISA bus microcomputer, and reduces the measurement of integral uniformity for 201Tl from 25% to 5%. Combined with regional correction for photopeak pulse-heights shifts (i.e. energy correction), the algorithm represents a novel technique for implementing uniformity correction completely within software.

Abstract
The contribution of penetrating photon energy to tumor dose is usually ignored because of the difficulty in calculating absorbed fractions and because it is frequently assumed to represent a small proportion of the total energy. The MABDOSE software--written explicitly to simulate photon transport for the calculation of penetrating radiation absorbed fractions--was used to simulate the 131I photon spectrum originating from the liver, spleen, and whole body source organs. Specific absorbed fractions were calculated for tumors of radius 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 cm placed near the liver and spleen in the Reference Man geometry. Cumulated activities were estimated using values reported from the literature. Dosimetry estimates from the combined cumulated activity and specific absorbed fractions indicate that neglecting the photon contribution underestimates the tumor dose by 10%-25%.

Abstract
Dosimetry data arising from a decade of radioimmunotherapy are summarized along with techniques utilized to arrive at the reported dose estimates. Generality of the MIRD methodology allows it to serve as a vehicle for the calculation of solid tumor dosimetry although several limitations exist. Nonstandard geometries of solid tumors will ultimately necessitate determination of absorbed fractions for the individual tumors. Several approaches currently under investigation are described. For reasons of practicality, solid tumor dosimetry estimates continue to use the assumption of homogeneous activity distribution in a source organ, accounting for either all radiation or only nonpenetrating radiation. As computation tools become available for incorporating inhomogeneous cellular level data, the currently used "average dose" as an index of tumor sterilization will likely be replaced with a statistical distribution based on the number of viable cells in the tumor volume. Estimates of a tumor control dose would be based upon a linear extension of dose coupled with a threshold dose for cell sterilization.

Abstract
For radiation dosimetry calculations of radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies, (MAB), pharmacokinetics are critical. Specifically, pharmacokinetic modeling is a useful component of estimation of cumulated activity in various source organs in the body. It is thus important to formulate general methods of pharmacokinetic modeling and of pharmacokinetic data reduction, leading to cumulated activities. In this paper different types of models are characterized as "empirical," "analytical," and "compartmental" pharmacokinetic models. There remains a pressing need for quantitative studies in man for a proper understanding of the pharmacokinetics of MAb. Pharmacokinetic modeling of radiolabeled MAb in vivo has relied on relatively limited studies in man and complementary detailed measurements in animals. In either case, any model chosen for analysis of such data is inevitably based on measurements of limited accuracy and precision as well as assumptions regarding human physiology. Very few macroscopic compartmental pharmacokinetic models for MAb, have been tested over a range of conditions to determine their predictive ability. Extracorporeal immunoadsorption represents one approach for drastically altering the biokinetics of antibody distribution, and may serve to validate a given pharmacokinetic model. In addition to macroscopic modeling, the microscopic evaluation of the time-dependent distribution of radiolabeled MAb in tissues is of utmost importance for a proper understanding of the kinetics and radiobiologic effect. Many tumors do not exhibit homogeneous uptake. A mathematical understanding of that distribution is thus essential for accurate tumor dosimetry estimates. This review summarizes methodologies for pharmacokinetic modeling, critically reviews specific pharmacokinetic models and demonstrates the capability of modeling for predictive calculations of altered pharmacokinetics, emphasizing its use in dosimetric calculations.

Abstract
Bone marrow is most often the dose-limiting organ in radiation immunotherapy. Controversy exists over optimal methods of estimating radiation dose to bone marrow. The authors compared findings in serial blood samples to findings in bone marrow biopsy samples as measures of bone marrow activity from which to calculate bone marrow dose. Peripheral blood samples and bone marrow biopsy samples were obtained from 11 female patients at 48 and 168 hours after infusion of iodine-131-labeled Mc5 antibody. Bone marrow biopsy data demonstrated markedly decreased specific activity compared with that measured in the peripheral blood. Activities at 48 hours after infusion ranged from 3% to 22% of the peripheral blood activity. These results indicate that activity concentration in the bone marrow is not equivalent to activity concentration in the blood for the Mc5 antibody. These results imply that a dose three to four times that indicated from serial blood samples could be tolerated by patients, provided the antibody-radioisotope does not bind to the marrow.

Abstract
Using P element-mediated mutagenesis we have isolated 20 X-linked lethal mutations, representing at least 14 complementation groups, which exhibit melanotic tumor phenotypes. We present the systematic analysis of this interesting group of lethal mutations that were selected for their visible melanotic or immune response. The lethal and melanotic tumor phenotypes of each lethal(1) aberrant immune response (air) mutation are pleiotropic effects of single genetic lesions. Lethality occurs throughout the larval and early pupal periods of development and larval development is extended in some air mutants. The air mutant lethal syndromes include abnormalities associated with the brain, haematopoietic organs, gut, salivary glands, ring glands, and imaginal discs. Additional characterization of the melanotic tumor mutations Tuml and tu(1)Szts have indicated that the melanotic tumor phenotype is similar to that observed in the air mutants. These studies have led to the proposal that two distinct classes of melanotic tumor mutations exist. Class 1 includes mutants in which melanotic tumors result from "autoimmune responses" or the response of an apparently normal immune system to the presence of abnormal target tissues. The Class 2 mutants display obvious defects in the haematopoietic organs or haemocytes, manifested as overgrowth, and the resulting aberrant immune system behavior may contribute to melanotic tumor formation.

Abstract
Extracorporeal immunoadsorption is a new technique for removal of circulating radiolabeled antibody from the peripheral blood (1) to reduce background activity for improved tumor imaging, and (2) to reduce whole-body and marrow toxicity when high doses of radiolabeled antibodies are used for antitumor therapy. A pharmacokinetic model was developed to describe plasma disappearance of 111In-KC-4G3 prior to, during, and after immunoadsorption in humans. The model is developed based on a two-compartment open model, and during immunoadsorption a third compartment is added for removed radioactivity by the immunoadsorption column. Goodness-of-fit statistics indicate a good fit of the model to the data. The resulting pharmacokinetic parameters for a selected patient are V1 = 2.64 L, VSS = 3.64 L, t 1/2 alpha = 3.77 hr, and t 1/2 beta = 48.5 hr. The immunoadsorption clearance (CLIA = 19.3 ml/min) was 21-fold greater than the patient's plasma clearance (CL10 = 0.899 ml/min), indicating a very effective immunoadsorption process. The model predicts an increase in plasma radioactivity upon termination of immunoadsorption, probably due to redistribution of radioactivity from the extravascular compartment to the plasma in response to the rapid decline in plasma radioactivity during immunoadsorption. Two series of simulations were performed to examine the influence of onset time and duration of immunoadsorption. In series one the onset time was varied and in series two immunoadsorption duration was varied. In series one, the predicted radioactivity amounts adsorbed by the immunoadsorption column ranged from 75% of the injected dose (4-hr onset) to 52% of the injected dose (24-hr onset). In series two, immunoadsorbed radioactivity ranged from 32% (2-hr duration) to 64% of the injected dose (12-hr duration). When instituted as early as 4 hr, the predictions suggest that earlier immunoadsorption onset improves the effectiveness of radioactivity removal, relating to higher early circulation concentrations, and longer immunoadsorption periods remove more radioactivity, but also result in larger predicted radioactivity redistribution form tissue to plasma. To employ the immunoadsorption procedure for tumor imaging and therapy optimally, the data and our predictions indicate that a compromise must be made that will balance immunoadsorption onset and duration against tumor radioactivity uptake and subsequent radioactivity redistribution from tissues back to plasma. Together with biologic considerations providing sufficient antigen-antibody interaction and dependent on the utilized radioisotope, these data support the utility of extracorporeal immunoadsorption during the radioimmunodetection of cancer and for future therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Imaging of tumors by using radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies (MoAs) is hindered by the presence of background activity. To reduce this problem, the authors investigated the process of removing labeled MoAs from plasma at selected times by means of extracorporeal immunoadsorption. In seven patients with either lung or breast carcinoma, an indium-111-labeled murine antibody was intravenously administered. Six to 24 hours later, immunoadsorption was performed by passing the patients' plasma through a goat anti-mouse antibody column connected to a plasma separator. Whole-body computer images were obtained before and after the treatment. Blood pool activity in the images was reduced by an average of 59%, while tumor activity dropped by only 10%. Tumor-to-blood activity ratios therefore more than doubled, improving by an average of 121% between the pre- and posttreatment image sets. Eight of 12 areas of known disease and three areas of unknown but later documented disease were detected after the immunoadsorption process, while the three areas of unknown disease and three of the areas of known disease were not detected in the preclearance images. Thus, the feasibility of using extracorporeal immunoadsorption to improve MoA imaging of tumors was demonstrated.

Abstract
We have cloned from the Oregon R strain of Drosophila melanogaster a 240 kb segment of DNA that contains the cut (ct) locus, and characterized the region for the presence of repetitive elements. Within this region at least five copies of the suffix element were detected, as well as several putatively novel mobile elements. A number of mutations obtained from the unstable ctMR2 strain and its derivatives were mapped within the cut locus. Comparison between parental and daughter strains indicates that frequently two or more independent transposition events involving the cut locus occur simultaneously within a single germ cell, thus providing a molecular basis for the transposition explosion phenomenon.

Abstract
Transcatheter embolization by Ivalon particles for treatment of arteriovenous malformations has been an accepted therapeutic technique for many years. We describe a new and efficient radiolabeling technique of Ivalon particles using [99mTc]sulfur colloid. Continuous and dynamic monitoring of injected radiolabeled Ivalon particles is made possible by viewing the persistence scope of a portable gamma camera whose head is positioned over the patient undergoing therapeutic embolization. Therefore, if inadvertent pulmonary embolism or reflux migration of radiolabeled Ivalon particles has occurred, the angiographer is immediately aware of this potentially serious or fatal complication and can take corrective action. We describe two patients, each with an arteriovenous malformation, who had therapeutic embolization with radiolabeled Ivalon particles, one resulting in reflux migration and the other resulting in inadvertent pulmonary embolism.

Abstract
We describe a Drosophila DNA clone of tandemly duplicated genes encoding an amino acid sequence nearly identical to human ribosomal protein S14 and yeast rp59. Despite their remarkably similar exons, the locations and sizes of introns differ radically among the Drosophila, human, and yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) ribosomal protein genes. Transcripts of both Drosophila RPS14 genes were detected in embryonic and adult tissues and are the same length as mammalian S14 message. Drosophila RPS14 was mapped to region 7C5-9 on the X chromosome. This interval also encodes a previously characterized Minute locus, M(1)7C.

Abstract
A method which facilitates the rapid and quantitative electrophoretic transfer of proteins from gels not containing sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) to nitrocellulose membranes is described. The equilibration of non-SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic gels in a buffer containing SDS confers a net negative charge to the proteins present, presumably as a result of the formation of SDS-protein complexes. Proteins from gels equilibrated in the SDS buffer and then electroblotted in a Tris-glycine buffer at pH 8.3 are transferred with much greater efficiency than are proteins from untreated gels. The method has been shown to significantly enhance the electrophoretic transfer of polyoma viral proteins resolved in either acetic acid-urea or isoelectric-focusing gels to nitrocellulose membranes, and it is suggested that the method should have universal applicability to all gel electrophoresis systems currently employed. The proteins from isoelectric-focusing gels treated with SDS and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes were found to retain antigenicity to antisera prepared against either denatured or native viral proteins.

Abstract
Four hundred patients wearing silicone elastomer contact lenses for extended wear were monitored over an 18-month period. Safety and efficacy were evaluated as related to corneal physiology and lens performance. These lenses proved to be reasonably durable and the lens material and design characteristics did not interfere with ocular physiology but permitted good visual acuity and comfort. The authors' clinical experiences, when compared with other reports of extended-wear lens designs and materials, indicate that this silicone elastomer lens provides superior performance characteristics.

Abstract
The term "hybrid dysgenesis" describes a syndrome of genetic effects which sometimes results when Drosophila melanogaster from wild populations are outcrossed; this syndrome often includes male recombination as well as enhanced rates of genic and chromosomal mutation, sterility, and transmission ratio distortion. In this study, we have examined the mechanism of T-007-induced male recombination by genetically characterizing third chromosomes generated by an exchange in a well-marked euchromatic region. Most recombinant chromosomes were sequentially normal, and no recessive lethal events at the point of exchange were recovered. The results demonstrate that although some recombinants may be generated by nonhomologous chromosome (or chromatid) breakage and reunion, the predominant effect of T-007 is through an enhanced rate of normal mitotic exchange. The rate of mitotic exchange is also increased by ionizing radiation and chemical mutagens; we suggest that the common factor in all three cases is the induction of single strand breaks.
