A cell line of penile cancer from a 60-year-old Ugandan black patient has been studied by the authors. Transmission and scanning electron microscopy showed a large number of blebs and microvilli at cell surface; desmosomes were evident at TEM. Cytogenetic investigation (R-, C-, Nor-banding) showed the frequent presence of some markers: del(1p),del(1q),iso(3q),der(4),del(8p),11q+, t rob(13;14), 14p+, t rob(21;21). The epidemiology, geographical distribution, and aetiological role of human papilloma virus type 16 and herpes simplex type 2 are discussed. 相似文献

Two cases of t(21q21q)/r[t(21q21q)] mosaic in unrelated infants, 17 and 14 months old respectively are reported. The proportion of cells with the ring chromosome was 45% in the former, 80% in the latter. Both cases had mild manifestations of the Down's syndrome. The origin of this unusual mosaicism as well as the significance of the difference in the proportions of the ring chromosome in the two have been discussed. 相似文献

Urbanization and habitat fragmentation can alter the timing of life history events, potentially leading to phenological mismatches, carryover effects, and fitness costs. Whereas urbanization and fragmentation are known to alter important aspects of breeding in many bird species, little is known about the effects of urbanization and habitat fragmentation on moult. To investigate the effects of urbanization and fragmentation on the annual moult, we compared the moult dynamics (onset, duration, and intensity) of urban, fragmented forest, and contiguous forest populations of the Carolina chickadee, a North American resident passerine that moults once per year immediately following the breeding season. Over three years, moult dynamics were similar in contiguous and fragmented forest populations, but wing moult started significantly earlier, and onset of moult varied less among years, in urban chickadees than in forest chickadees (fragmented and contiguous habitats pooled). Duration of wing moult did not differ between urban and forest populations, but urban birds moulted significantly fewer feathers simultaneously during peak moult, suggesting that individual feathers grew more rapidly. Our results show that urban living alters critical aspects of moult dynamics in a widespread songbird. Given the importance of moult dynamics for fitness during subsequent life history stages, and the large number of songbird species inhabiting urban areas, these results reveal previously unrecognized and potentially costly carryover effects of urban living on songbirds. 相似文献

The best animal angioplasty model is the porcine model, which is expensive and not available in all laboratories. The aim of this study was to describe a new rat model of angioplasty. An injury was induced with the use of a standard percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) 1.5-mm balloon catheter. The neointimal tissue, arterial dimensions, and the injury index were assessed following angioplasty. Ki-67 expression was detected to evaluate cell turnover after balloon angioplasty. In contrast with the standard Clowes model, a significant neointimal formation was detected only in the presence of ruptured internal elastic lamina (IEL). A positive correlation between the percentage of ruptured IEL and the amount of neointimal tissue was also demonstrated. The percentage of IEL fracture correlates with the proliferation index by anti-Ki-67 immunolabeling 7 and 14 days after the angioplasty. Significant arterial negative remodeling was observed following PTCA balloon dilation. In conclusion, our inexpensive animal model of restenosis after angioplasty may have great relevance toward a better understanding of the mechanisms and toward assessment of new therapeutical strategies for this phenomenon. 相似文献

Shortnose sturgeon Acipenser brevirostrum is federally listed as ‘‘an endangered species threatened with extinction’’ in the U.S. but its listing status is currently
under review. As part of this process, the U.S. National Marine Fisheries Service will determine if shortnose sturgeon are
divided into Distinct Population Segments (DPS) across its distribution. In this regard, we sought to determine if shortnose
sturgeon occur in genetically “discrete population segments,” and if so, the boundaries of each. We used mitochondrial DNA
(mtDNA) control region sequence analysis to assess the genetic discreteness of 14 of 19 river populations that were recommended
as DPS in the 1998 Final Recovery Plan for Shortnose Sturgeon. Nine of the 14 proposed DPS proved significantly discrete (P < 0.05 after Bonferoni correction) from both of their bracketing populations, the exceptions being those in the Penobscot
River, Chesapeake Bay, Cooper River, and Ogeechee River (our sample from the Cape Fear River was insufficient to statistically
analyze). Haplotype frequencies in the newly “rediscovered” Penobscot River collection were almost identical to those in the
proximal Kennebec River system. Genetic data in combination with tagging results suggest that shortnose sturgeon in the Penobscot
River are probably migrants from the Kennebec. Likewise, shortnose sturgeon found today within the Chesapeake Bay appear to
be migrants from the Delaware River. While haplotype frequencies in the remnant Santee River population in Lake Marion differed
significantly from those in nearby Winyah Bay, they did not differ significantly from those in the Cooper River. This suggests
that the Cooper River harbors descendants of the Santee River population that are unable to access their historical spawning
locales. The Ogeechee River collection was not genetically distinct from that in the nearby Savannah River, suggesting that
it may host descendants of hatchery-reared individuals of Savannah River ancestry. Our genetic results indicate that most,
but not all, rivers with shortnose sturgeon host genetically discrete populations, constituting important information in the
consideration of DPS designations. However, shortnose sturgeon migrations through coastal waters to proximal rivers and release
of hatchery-reared fish may confound results from genetic studies such as ours and lead to the possible misidentification
of discrete population segments. 相似文献

The luminal airway surface is lined with epithelial cells that provide a protective barrier from the external environment and clear inhaled pathogens from the lung. To accomplish this important function, human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells must be able to rapidly regenerate a mucociliary layer of cells following epithelial injury. Whereas epithelial-fibroblast interactions are known to modulate the airway architecture during lung development and repair, little is known about how these two cells interact. Using a primary HBE and lung fibroblast coculture system, we demonstrate that 1) subepithelial fibroblasts provide a suitable environment for differentiation of HBE cells into a polarized ciliated phenotype despite being cultured in media that induces terminal squamous differentiation and growth arrest in the absence of fibroblasts, 2) HBE cells cocultured with subepithelial fibroblasts exhibit augmented ciliogenesis, accelerated wound repair, and diminished polarized ion transport compared with cells grown in control conditions, and 3) hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is important for subepithelial fibroblast modulation of HBE cell differentiation. These results provide a model to study fibroblast modulation of epithelial phenotype and indicate that HGF secreted by subepithelial fibroblasts contributes to HBE cell differentiation. 相似文献

Phragmites australis is a perennial grass that has invaded wetlands of the northeastern United States over the past century. The Hudson River Estuary and surrounding watersheds are no exception in that populations of P. australis have spread dramatically along its shores and tributaries in the past 40 years. Recent studies have shown that genetically variable populations of P. australis can spread by seed dispersal in addition to clonal mechanisms. It is important to characterize the genetic variation of Hudson River populations as part of a management strategy for this species to determine the mechanisms by which its spreads and colonizes new habitats, particularly those with frequent anthropogenic disturbances. The goals of this study were to quantify levels of genetic variation and structuring in Hudson River populations of P. australis using microsatellite DNA analysis. A total of 354 culms of P. australis were collected from nine locations ranging from Albany, New York to Staten Island, New York in the summers of 2004 (N = 174) and 2011 (N = 180). Microsatellite data from eight loci indicated that the Hudson River Estuary has some of the highest levels of genetic variation of all U. S. Atlantic Coast regions containing P. australis. Gene diversity (Hs) across all loci in the 2004 collection was 0.45 (±0.02) and that of the 2011 collection was 0.47 (±0.07). Patches within sample sites were rarely monoclonal and had multiple genetic phenotypes. Moran’s Identity tests indicated that individuals within a patch were closely related, whereas little genetic relatedness was evident among individuals from sample sites >1 km apart. Spatial structuring was also not evident in autospatial correlation and principle coordinate analyses. These findings suggest that genetic diversity is maintained within stands by sexual reproduction and that seeds are important in dispersal of P. australis across the Hudson River Estuary. Ample habitats are available for establishment of new Phragmites stands due to high levels of anthropogenic disturbance from populations living along the Estuary. Wildlife managers should focus on monitoring habitats that provide seedbed for Phragmites and promote land use practices that prevent soil disturbance and establishment of new stands. 相似文献

The chloroplast genomes of three isolates of the marine diatom Skeletonema costatum (Grev.) Cleve were mapped and found to be 131 ± 2 kb with inverted repeats (IRs) of approximately 20 kb. In contrast to higher plants, the psbA gene mapped to the IR, and rbcS mapped to the same fragment as the rbcL gene in the large single-copy region. The maps of the three isolates were colinear and revealed as many as 20 site mutations out of a total of 47 sites. The number of site mutations among isolates was consistent with previous data on their genetic diversity and physiology. Comparisons of gene order among our maps and those of three other diatom species showed that closely related genera retained similar gene orders but that more distantly related taxa exhibited extensive rearrangements. We conclude that simple restriction fragment analysis of chloroplast DNA is useful in comparative studies of diatom populations and species but that other analytical methods are more appropriate for phylogenetic studies at higher levels. 相似文献

Pancreatic pseudocyst, the most common cystic lesion of the pancreas, is a localized collection of fluid rich in amylase within or adjacent to the pancreas and enclosed by a nonepithelialized wall, occurring as a result of acute or chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic trauma, or pancreatic duct obstruction. Currently, at least 3 major forms of therapy are available: percutaneous drainage, surgical intervention, and endoscopic drainage. Controversy exists concerning which of these techniques should be offered to the patient as initial therapy. Three options exist for the surgical management of pancreatic pseudocysts: excision, external drainage, and internal drainage. Surgery, which traditionally was the major treatment approach for pancreatic pseudocysts, has been challenged by newer endoscopic techniques. Given the low complication and mortality rates and the high success rate of endoscopic drainage when compared with surgery, surgical intervention should be reserved only for certain cases. Addition of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) for endoscopic drainage is a new and exciting development and may decrease the risks associated with endoscopic drainage. We report our experience of 14 cases of EUS-guided pancreatic pseudocyst drainage and review the literature for advantages and disadvantages of these pancreatic pseudocyst drainage procedures. Complications, recurrence, success, and mortality rates for each procedure are described. Our approach to pancreatic pseudocyst management is described in the form of an algorithm. 相似文献
