Time-Dependent Effects of Inosine on Competence Development in Haemophilus influenzae

The effect of inosine on the development of competence is dependent upon the time at which it is added to the competence medium. Competence is inhibited if inosine is added within 15 min after the development begins, but is stimulated if the addition is made at later times. Protein synthesis is stimulated by the addition of inosine, but the effect is quantitatively similar regardless of the time at which inosine is added.     

Backward bifurcation of an epidemic model with treatment

An epidemic model with a limited resource for treatment is proposed to understand the effect of the capacity for treatment. It is assumed that treatment rate is proportional to the number of infectives below the capacity and is a constant when the number of infectives is greater than the capacity. It is found that a backward bifurcation occurs if the capacity is small. It is also found that there exist bistable endemic equilibria if the capacity is low.     

Ultrastructural organization of the ocelloide of Nematodinium. Phylogenetic aspect of the evolution of Warnowiidae Lindemann dinoflagellates photoreceptor (author's transl)

In this study, more details of the different parts of the "ocelloide" of Nematodinium are given. The "hyalosome" which has a radial symmetry is made of endoplasmic reticulum, except the mitochondrial layer. There is only one constrictor ring and only a beginning of the periocellar gallery. The basal sheet on which the crystalline lens lies is a local differentiation of the cortical layer which is observed on the ceiling of the ocellar camera. This camera is related to the intercingular sulcus. There is also an ocellar fiber. The "melanosome" which is made of a double membrane and of many couples of thylakoids is flattened dorso-ventrally. The structure of the retina is similar to that observed in the other Warnowiidae. The pigmented ring is rather well developed and is in continuity with the upper part of the retina. Owing to the simpler organization of its ocelloide, Nematodinium is situated before the genera Warnowia and Erythropsidinium in the evolutionary series.

Autogenous control of Escherichia coli threonyl-tRNA synthetase expression in vivo

The regulation of the expression of thrS, the structural gene for threonyl-tRNA synthetase, was studied using several thrS-lac fusions cloned in lambda and integrated as single copies at att lambda. It is first shown that the level of beta-galactosidase synthesized from a thrS-lac protein fusion is increased when the chromosomal copy of thrS is mutated. It is also shown that the level of beta-galactosidase synthesized from the same protein fusion is decreased if wild-type threonyl-tRNA synthetase is overproduced from a thrS-carrying plasmid. These results strongly indicate that threonyl-tRNA synthetase controls the expression of its own gene. Consistent with this hypothesis it is shown that some thrS mutants overproduce a modified form of threonyl-tRNA synthetase. When the thrS-lac protein fusion is replaced by several types of thrS-lac operon fusions no effect of the chromosomal thrS allele on beta-galactosidase synthesis is observed. It is also shown that beta-galactosidase synthesis from a promoter-proximal thrS-lac operon fusion is not repressed by threonyl-tRNA synthetase overproduction. The fact that regulation is seen with a thrS-lac protein fusion and not with operon fusions indicates that thrS expression is autoregulated at the translational level. This is confirmed by hybridization experiments which show that under conditions where beta-galactosidase synthesis from a thrS-lac protein fusion is derepressed three- to fivefold, lac messenger RNA is only slightly increased.     

Antidiuretic mechanism in Rhodnius prolixus (Stal, 1859) (Hemiptera, Reduviidae)

An antidiuretic mechanism is proposed for Rhodnius prolixus, whose activity is manifested when the diuretic phase has terminated and is maintained until the insect has fed again. Presumably this mechanism acts at the level of the proximal rectal sphincter and is inhibited by ingestion, mechanical distension of the gut and central disinhibition by decapitation. It is suggested that the antidiuretic activity is maintained by the nervous system and is modified when there is distention of the gut or when the nervous signal is interrupted by decapitation. It is demonstrated that the excretion of urine in R. prolixus is not controlled exclusively by the diuretic hormone, but rather that factors not linked to the haemolymph maintain the insects in a diuretic or nondiuretic state.     

Effect of binding on melting transitions in polymer–diluent systems

An expression is derived for the melting point of a polymer when in equilibrium with a solution in which binding of low molecular weight compounds to the polymer takes place. Allowance is made for the possibility that the crystalline polymer itself is a complex. The argument is a purely thermodynamic one and is based on a consideration of the change in free energy as a result of a change in binding. Allowance is made also for non-specific polymer–solvent interactions, in which the mixture of low molecular weight solvents is treated as a single solvent. Special attention is paid to “inverted” melting transitions, i.e., cases in which the melting point increases with increasing dilution of the polymer. It is shown that as a rule this is accompanied by a corresponding, inverted effect of the solvent composition on the melting point. It is further shown that-in the absence of binding, “normal” behavior at the critical point (i.e., phase separation is induced by lowering the temperature) is always accompanied by “normal” melting behavior (i.e., a decrease in melting point when the polymer is diluted). Also, “inverted” melting always implies that phase separation at the critical point is induced by heating, but the reverse is not necessarily true.

Discrete three-stage population model: persistence and global stability results

A general three-stage discrete-time population model is studied. The inherent net reproductive number for this model is derived. Global stability of the origin is established provided that the inherent net reproductive number is less than one. If it is larger than one the existence of a unique positive fixed point is proved and the persistence of the system is established. Finally, for certain parameter ranges global stability of the positive fixed point is proved.     

The consumer's risk in clinical trials

In any formal statistical test of the null hypothesis (the statement that a population parameter is equal to a specific value), there are two possible types of error. Type 1 or alpha error has occurred if the investigator rejects the null hypothesis when it is true. For example, an experimental treatment is declared an advance over standard treatment when it is not. Type 2 or beta error has occurred if the null hypothesis is not rejected when it is false. In this case, the investigator concludes that the experimental treatment is no different than the standard when it actually is. The two types of error can be conceptualized, respectively, as the consumer's risk and the producer's risk. In many reports of clinical trial methodology, it is the producer's risk that is emphasized. It is understandable why producer's risk would be of concern to authors of clinical studies. There are, however, numerous potential sources of consumer's risk. It is the latter type of risk that is the primary subject of this report.     

Control of glucose metabolism in the perinatal period

The central importance of glucose as a fuel for energy metabolism and growth of the fetus is clear as is the role of insulin in coordinating its utilisation by many fetal tissues. What is less clear is the qunatitative nature of the interaction between the fetus and placenta in organising glucose metabolism. Increasingly there is evidence that the fetus coordinates some of the supply of glucose to the placenta and that this is particularly important when uterine blood flow is reduced. It is unclear how this is regulated, but substrate cycles of glucose and lactate appear to make a significant contribution to carbohydrate metabolism in fetus and placenta. Another area as yet unresolved in the control of fetal glucose metabolism is the coordination of the changes that occur around the time of birth. Notable of these is the activation of glycogen mobilisation and of glucose synthesis and changes in the setting of glucose regulatory mechanism. These are briefly reviewed.     

Failure to Maintain Glycolysis in Anoxic Nerve Terminals

Synaptosomal glycolysis is stimulated eight- to 10-fold when the respiratory chain is inhibited by cyanide or by anoxia. However, the stimulation is transient and after 15 min declines toward the preanoxic rate. The decline is not seen when Ca2+ is absent or when the respiratory chain is inhibited by rotenone. The decline in glycolysis is reversible, is not due to substrate exhaustion, and is the cause, rather than the effect, of lowered synaptosomal ATP/ADP ratios. The failure to maintain glycolysis when the terminal oxidase of the respiratory chain is inhibited may have relevance to the sensitivity of the brain to anoxic damage.

Magnetic Force Transmission of a Reciprocating Motion

Magnetic force transmission of a reciprocating motion is studied by theoretical analysis and experiment. A mathematical model for calculating the magnetic force is derived using the theory of equivalent magnetic charges. An experimental rig is constructed to test the transmission and the model is verified by experiment. Effect of the transmission parameters on the magnetic force is analyzed theoretically from the model, and characteristic of the transmission is studied experimentally. Since the transmission is without direct contact between two elements, it is suitable for application in an organism.     

Phylogenetic relationships among superfamilies of Hymenoptera

The first comprehensive analysis of higher‐level phylogeny of the order Hymenoptera is presented. The analysis includes representatives of all extant superfamilies, scored for 392 morphological characters, and sequence data for four loci (18S, 28S, COI and EF‐1α). Including three outgroup taxa, 111 terminals were analyzed. Relationships within symphytans (sawflies) and Apocrita are mostly resolved. Well supported relationships include: Xyeloidea is monophyletic, Cephoidea is the sister group of Siricoidea + [Xiphydrioidea + (Orussoidea + Apocrita)]; Anaxyelidae is included in the Siricoidea, and together they are the sister group of Xiphydrioidea + (Orussoidea + Apocrita); Orussoidea is the sister group of Apocrita, Apocrita is monophyletic; Evanioidea is monophyletic; Aculeata is the sister group of Evanioidea; Proctotrupomorpha is monophyletic; Ichneumonoidea is the sister group of Proctotrupomorpha; Platygastroidea is sister group to Cynipoidea, and together they are sister group to the remaining Proctotrupomorpha; Proctotrupoidea s. str. is monophyletic; Mymarommatoidea is the sister group of Chalcidoidea; Mymarommatoidea + Chalcidoidea + Diaprioidea is monophyletic. Weakly supported relationships include: Stephanoidea is the sister group of the remaining Apocrita; Diaprioidea is monophyletic; Ceraphronoidea is the sister group of Megalyroidea, which together form the sister group of [Trigonaloidea (Aculeata + Evanioidea)]. Aside from paraphyly of Vespoidea within Aculeata, all currently recognized superfamilies are supported as monophyletic. The diapriid subfamily Ismarinae is raised to family status, Ismaridae stat. nov. © The Will Henning Society 2011.

Sequential allocation in clinical trials comparing two exponential survival curves.

The problem of comparing two medical treatments with respect to survival is considered. Treatment outcome is assumed to follow an exponential distribution. The ratio of expected survivals associated with the two treatments is the clinical parameter of interest. A nuisance parameter is present, but it is removed by an invariance reduction and a sequential probability ratio test is applied to the invariant likelihood ratio. A class of data-dependent treatment assignment rules is identified over which the probability of correct treatment selection at the termination of the trial is approximately constant. A cost function, the weighted sum of total patients in the trial and the number assigned to the inferior treatment is introduced, and a treatment allocation rule conjectured to minimize the expected cost is constructed. Both analytic and simulation results show that it is an improvement over rules previously proposed. The methodology contained herein can be used to construct near-optimal rules in other testing contexts.
