A 25-year-old previously asymptomatic pregnant woman at 36 weeks'' gestation was noticed to have repetitive monomorphic ventricular tachycardia. A dilated left ventricle with moderately reduced systolic function was found on echocardiographic examination. This is a very rare presentation of peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCMP) presenting with repetitive monomorphic ventricular tachycardia. 相似文献

Allophanate lyase can be induced by urea or acetamide 20-40-fold within 4 h in NH4 + -deprived cultures of Chlamydomonas reinhardi. In light-synchronized cultures, allophanate lyase induction appeared to be limited to the light phase of the cell cycle, provided that culture samples were induced under ongoing illumination conditions (i.e. light induction of light phase cells and dark induction of dark phase cells). However, when culture samples were induced under constant light conditions this cell cycle pattern was abolished. Light was found to be required for allophanate lyase induction and this was shown to be due, in part, to the light requirement for inducer uptake. The relationship between allophanate lyase induction and gametogenesis is discussed. 相似文献

Solanum melongena fruit juice contains peroxidase activity of the order of 0.125 IU/mL. A method for the 11-fold purification of the enzyme was developed. The Km values of the peroxidase for the substrates guaiacol and hydrogen peroxide were 6.5 mM and 0.33 mM, respectively. The pH and temperature optima were 5.5 and 84 degrees C, respectively using guaiacol as the substrate. Sodium azide and phenyl hydrazine inhibited the enzyme competitively. 相似文献

Introduction
Male breast cancer (MBC) is a rare, yet potentially aggressive disease. Although literature regarding female breast cancer (FBC) is extensive, little is known about the etiopathogenesis of male breast cancer. Studies from our laboratory show that MBCs have a distinct immunophenotypic profile, suggesting that the etiopathogenesis of MBC is different from FBCs. The aim of this study was to evaluate and correlate the immunohistochemical expression of cell cycle proteins in male breast carcinoma to significant clinico-biological endpoints.Methods
75 cases of MBC were identified using the records of the Saskatchewan Cancer Agency over 26 years (1970-1996). Cases were reviewed and analyzed for the immunohistochemical expression of PCNA, Ki67, p27, p16, p57, p21, cyclin-D1 and c-myc and correlated to clinico-biological endpoints of tumor size, node status, stage of the disease, and disease free survival (DFS).Results
Decreased DFS was observed in the majority of tumors that overexpressed PCNA (98%, p = 0.004). The overexpression of PCNA was inversely correlated to the expression of Ki67 which was predominantly negative (78.3%). Cyclin D1 was overexpressed in 83.7% of cases. Cyclin D1 positive tumors were smaller than 2 cm (55.6%, p = 0.005), had a low incidence of lymph node metastasis (38.2%, p = 0.04) and were associated with increased DFS of >150 months (p = 0.04). Overexpression of c-myc (90%) was linked with a higher incidence of node negativity (58.3%, p = 0.006) and increased DFS (p = 0.04). p27 over expression was associated with decreased lymph node metastasis (p = 0.04). P21 and p57 positive tumors were related to decreased DFS (p = 0.04). Though p16 was overexpressed in 76.6%, this did not reach statistical significance with DFS (p = 0.06) or nodal status (p = 0.07).Conclusion
Aberrant cell cycle protein expression supports our view that these are important pathways involved in the etiopathogenesis of MBC. Tumors with overexpression of Cyclin D1 and c-myc had better outcomes, in contrast to tumors with overexpression of p21, p57, and PCNA with significantly worse outcomes. P27 appears to be a predictive marker for lymph nodal status. Such observation strongly suggests that dysregulation of cell cycle proteins may play a unique role in the initiation and progression of disease in male breast cancer. Such findings open up new avenues for the treatment of MBC as a suitable candidate for novel CDK-based anticancer therapies in the future. 相似文献15.
The murid rodent subfamily Sigmodontinae contains 79 genera which are
distributed throughout the New World. The time of arrival of the first
sigmodontines in South America and the estimated divergence time(s) of the
different lineages of South American sigmodontines have been controversial
due to the lack of a good fossil record and the immense number of extant
species. The "early-arrival hypothesis" states that the sigmodontines must
have arrived in South America no later than the early Miocene, at least 20
MYA, in order to account for their vast present-day diversity, whereas the
"late-arrival hypothesis" includes the sigmodontines as part of the
Plio-Pleistocene Great American Interchange, which occurred approximately
3.5 MYA. The phylogenetic relationships among 33 of these genera were
reconstructed using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence data from the ND3,
ND4L, arginine tRNA, and ND4 genes, which we show to be evolving at the
same rate. A molecular clock was calibrated for these genes using published
fossil dates, and the genetic distances were estimated from the DNA
sequences in this study. The molecular clock was used to estimate the dates
of the South American sigmodontine origin and the main sigmodontine
radiation in order to evaluate the "early-" and "late-arrival" scenarios.
We estimate the time of the sigmodontine invasion of South America as
between approximately 5 and 9 MYA, supporting neither of the scenarios but
suggesting two possible models in which the invading lineage was either (1)
ancestral to the oryzomyines, akodonts, and phyllotines or (2) ancestral to
the akodonts and phyllotines and accompanied by the oryzomyines. The
sigmodontine invasion of South America provides an example of the advantage
afforded to a lineage by the fortuitous invasion of a previously
unexploited habitat, in this case an entire continent.

Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) as a proliferative marker during embryonic and adult zebrafish hematopoiesis 总被引:4,自引:1,他引:3

We investigated the expression of proliferative cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in zebrafish to delineate the proliferative hematopoietic
component during adult and embryonic hematopoiesis. Immunostaining for PCNA and enhanced green fluorescence protein (eGFP)
was performed in wild-type and fli1-eGFP (endothelial marker) and gata1-eGFP (erythroid cell marker) transgenic fish. Expression
of PCNA mRNA was examined in wild-type and chordin morphant embryos. In adult zebrafish kidney, the renal tubules are surrounded
by endothelial cells and it is separated into hematopoietic and excretory compartments. PCNA was expressed in hematopoietic
progenitor cells but not in mature neutrophils, eosinophils or erythroid cells. Some PCNA+ cells are scattered in the hematopoietic
compartment of the kidney while others are closely associated with renal tubular cells. PCNA was also expressed in spermatogonial
stem cells and intestine crypts, consistent with its role in cell proliferation and DNA synthesis. In embryos, PCNA is expressed
in the brain, spinal cord and intermediate cell mass (ICM) at 24 h-post fertilization. In chordin morphants, PCNA is significantly
upregulated in the expanded ICM. Therefore, PCNA can be used to mark cell proliferation in zebrafish hematopoietic tissues
and to identify a population of progenitor cells whose significance would have to be further investigated. 相似文献

Over the past few years, secure and privacy-preserving user authentication scheme has become an integral part of the applications of the healthcare systems. Recently, Wen has designed an improved user authentication system over the Lee et al.’s scheme for integrated electronic patient record (EPR) information system, which has been analyzed in this study. We have found that Wen’s scheme still has the following inefficiencies: (1) the correctness of identity and password are not verified during the login and password change phases; (2) it is vulnerable to impersonation attack and privileged-insider attack; (3) it is designed without the revocation of lost/stolen smart card; (4) the explicit key confirmation and the no key control properties are absent, and (5) user cannot update his/her password without the help of server and secure channel. Then we aimed to propose an enhanced two-factor user authentication system based on the intractable assumption of the quadratic residue problem (QRP) in the multiplicative group. Our scheme bears more securities and functionalities than other schemes found in the literature. 相似文献

A lipopolysaccharide mutant of Bradyrhizobium japonicum that uncouples plant from bacterial differentiation. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

The Tn5-containing fragment from a non-nodulating mutant of Bradyrhizobium japonicum, strain ML142, was introduced into B. japonicum strain 61A101c by marker exchange to construct strain JS314. Strain JS314 failed to nodulate several soybean varieties tested. However, on a few varieties nodulelike structures were induced to a frequency of 54% of the plants inoculated. The ultrastructure of these nodules was studied in detail by light and electron microscopy. The nodules were devoid of internal bacteria, possessed central vascular tissue (unlike the lateral vascular tissue of a normal nodule), and exhibited localized cell death of epidermal cells. Study of the cell surface polysaccharides of strain JS314 revealed that the exopolysaccharide of this strain was identical to that of the wild type. However, the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of strain JS314 showed gross differences from that isolated from the wild-type strain. Specifically, the LPS of strain JS314 appeared to lack the high molecular weight LPS I form, strongly suggesting that the LPS lacks the O-chain. Glycosyl-composition analysis showed that the LPS of mutant JS314 lacked 2,3-di-O-methylrhamnose, 3-O-methylrhamnose, fucose, and quinovosamine. These results indicate that LPS I in B. japonicum is essential for bacterial infection of soybean, but is not required to initiate plant cortical cell division, an early plant response to infection. 相似文献
