The binding affinities of agonists at heteromeric nicotinic receptors composed of rat alpha2, alpha3 and alpha4 subunits in combination with beta2 or beta4 subunits were examined in stably transfected HEK 293 cells. In most cases, the affinities of agonists were higher at receptors composed of an alpha subunit in combination with the beta2 subunit than the beta4 subunit, and in some cases this difference was quite large (>250 times), suggesting the possibility of developing subtype-selective ligands and therapeutically useful drugs. 相似文献

Background
Acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis (AECB), including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD), represent a substantial patient burden. Few data exist on outpatient antibiotic management for AECB/AECOPD in Eastern/South Eastern Europe, in particular on the use of moxifloxacin (Avelox®), although moxifloxacin is widely approved in this region based on evidence from international clinical studies.Methods
AVANTI (AVelox® in Acute Exacerbations of chroNic bronchiTIs) was a prospective, observational study conducted in eight Eastern European countries in patients?>?35 years with AECB/AECOPD to whom moxifloxacin was prescribed. In addition to safety and efficacy outcomes, data on risk factors and the impact of exacerbation on daily life were collected.Results
In the efficacy population (N?=?2536), chronic bronchitis had been prevalent for?>?10 years in 31.4% of patients and 66.0% of patients had concomitant COPD. Almost half the patients had never smoked, in contrast to data from Western Europe and the USA, where only one-quarter of COPD patients are non-smokers. The mean number of exacerbations in the last 12 months was 2.7 and 26.3% of patients had been hospitalized at least once for exacerbation. Physician compliance with the recommended moxifloxacin dose (400 mg once daily) was 99.6%. The mean duration of moxifloxacin therapy for the current exacerbation (Anthonisen type I or II in 83.1%; predominantly type I) was 6.4?±?1.9 days. Symptom improvement was reported after a mean of 3.4?±?1.4 days. After 5 days, 93.2% of patients reported improvement and, in total, 93.5% of patients were symptom-free after 10 days. In the safety population (N?=?2672), 57 (2.3%) patients had treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and 4 (0.15%) had serious TEAEs; no deaths occurred. These results are in line with the known safety profile of moxifloxacin.Conclusions
A significant number of patients in this observational study had risk factors for poor outcome, justifying use of moxifloxacin. The safety profile of moxifloxacin and its value as an antibiotic treatment were confirmed. Physicians complied with the recommended 400 mg once-daily dose in a large proportion of patients, confirming the advantages of this simple dosing regimen.Trial registration

The use of cancer vaccines based on dendritic cells (DC) presenting tumor antigens can be a promising tool in the treatment of leukemia. The functional characteristics of leukemia derived DC is still to be elucidated. CD40 promotes survival, proliferation and differentiation of normal B cells. CD40 triggering was used to enhance the poor antigen-presenting capacity of leukemic B-cells. Since it is still unclear whether CD40 ligation drives neoplastic B-cells to apoptosis or not, we assessed the mRNA expression of FLICE, FAS, FADD and TRADD - important components of apoptosis machinery, using real-time PCR in acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells before and after CD40 and IL-4 stimulation. ALL cells stimulated with CD40L/IL-4 expressed dendritic cell phenotype at mRNA and protein levels (upregulation of main costimulatory and adhesion molecules noted in real-time RT PCR and flow cytometry); they also expressed higher amounts of mRNA for FLICE, TRADD and FADD after CD40L/IL-4 stimulation. However differences statistically significant comparing cells cultured with CD40L/IL-4 and medium alone regarded only FLICE. Concluding, we showed upregulation of important elements of apoptosis at mRNA level in ALL cells after CD40 ligation. 相似文献

In marine invertebrates, polymorphism and polyphenism in mode of development are known as “poecilogony.” Understanding the environmental correlates of poecilogony and the developmental mechanisms that produce it could contribute to a better understanding of evolutionary transitions in mode of development. However, poecilogony is rare in marine invertebrates, with only ten recognized, well‐documented cases. Five examples occur in sacoglossan gastropods, and five occur in spionid polychaetes. Here, we document the eleventh case, and the first in a caenogastropod mollusc. Females of Calyptraea lichen collected in the field or reared in the laboratory often produce broods of planktotrophic larvae. They can also be collected with mixed broods, in which each capsule contains planktotrophic larvae, nurse embryos, and adelphophagic embryos. Adelphophages eat the nurse embryos and hatch as short‐lived lecithotrophic larvae, or even as juveniles. Mitochondrial COI and 16S DNA sequences for females with different types of broods differ by less than 0.5%, supporting conspecific status. Some females collected in the field with mixed broods subsequently produced planktotrophic broods, demonstrating that females can produce two different kinds of broods. Calyptraea lichen is therefore polyphenic in two ways: mode of development can vary among embryos within a capsule, and females can change the types of broods they produce. 相似文献

Background
While it is generally accepted that patterns of intra-specific genetic differentiation are substantially affected by glacial history, population genetic processes occurring during Pleistocene glaciations are still poorly understood. In this study, we address the question of the genetic consequences of Pleistocene glaciations for European grey wolves. Combining our data with data from published studies, we analysed phylogenetic relationships and geographic distribution of mitochondrial DNA haplotypes for 947 contemporary European wolves. We also compared the contemporary wolf sequences with published sequences of 24 ancient European wolves. 相似文献97.

To evaluate cell-mediated immunity in influenza-infected cotton rats, we compared the cellular composition of spleen, mediastinal lymph nodes (MLN) and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) after primary and secondary infection. There was an increase in cellularity in the MLN after primary infection that was further expanded upon rechallenge. CD4(+) T cells expanded after primary infection, but there was preferential increase in the number of CD4-negative T cells following secondary challenge. After primary infection, a large proportion of the monocytes and NK cells were present in the BAL while a T cell population dominated after secondary infection. CD4(+) T cells were predominant in this population unless the animals had been challenged with heterosubtypic influenza A virus. These studies are the first to show evidence of a memory T cell response to influenza infection in cotton rats and show quantitative and qualitative differences between the recall response to homosubtypic and heterosubtypic viruses. 相似文献

We investigated the presence of glycoproteins in Borrelia burgdorferi. We did not find any evidence for glycosylation of the major outer membrane proteins OspA and OspB or the structural flagellar proteins FlaB and FlaA. We suggest that glycoproteins present on the surface of B. burgdorferi may be tightly bound culture medium glycoproteins. 相似文献
