Hypomania: a transcultural perspective

This study examined the transcultural robustness of a screening instrument for hypomania, the Hypomania Checklist-32, first revised version (HCL-32 R1). It was carried out in 2606 patients from twelve countries in five geographic regions (Northern, Southern and Eastern Europe, South America and East Asia). In addition, GAMIAN Europe contributed data from its members. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were used to examine the transregional stability of the measurement properties of the HCL-32 R1, including the influence of sex and age as covariates. Across cultures, a two-factor structure was confirmed: the first factor (F1) reflected the more positive aspects of hypomania (being more active, elated, self-confident, and cogni-tively enhanced); the second factor (F2) reflected the more negative aspects (being irritable, impulsive, careless, more substance use). The measurement properties of the HCL-32 R1 were largely invariant across cultures. Only few items showed transcultural differences in their relation to hypomania as measured by the test. F2 was higher among men and in more severe manic syndromes; F1 was highest in North and East Europe and lowest in South America. The scores decreased slightly with age. The frequency of the 32 items showed remarkable similarities across geographic areas, with two excep-tions: South Europeans had lower symptom frequencies in general and East Europeans higher rates of substance use. These findings support the interna-tional applicability of the HCL-32 R1 as a screening instrument for hypomania.

Disentangling the relative importance of climate,size and competition on tree growth in Iberian forests: implications for forest management under global change

Most large‐scale multispecies studies of tree growth have been conducted in tropical and cool temperate forests, whereas Mediterranean water‐limited ecosystems have received much less attention. This limits our understanding of how growth of coexisting tree species varies along environmental gradients in these forests, and the implications for species interactions and community assembly under current and future climatic conditions. Here, we quantify the absolute effect and relative importance of climate, tree size and competition as determinants of tree growth patterns in Iberian forests, and explore interspecific differences in the two components of competitive ability (competitive response and effect) along climatic and size gradients. Spatially explicit neighborhood models were developed to predict tree growth for the 15 most abundant Iberian tree species using permanent‐plot data from the Spanish Second and Third National Forest Inventory (IFN). Our neighborhood analyses showed a climatic and size effect on tree growth, but also revealed that competition from neighbors has a comparatively much larger impact on growth in Iberian forests. Moreover, the sensitivity to competition (i.e. competitive response) of target trees varied markedly along climatic gradients causing significant rank reversals in species performance, particularly under xeric conditions. We also found compelling evidence for strong species‐specific competitive effects in these forests. Altogether, these results constitute critical new information which not only furthers our understanding of important theoretical questions about the assembly of Mediterranean forests, but will also be of help in developing new guidelines for adapting forests in this climatic boundary to global change. If we consider the climatic gradients of this study as a surrogate for future climatic conditions, then we should expect absolute growth rates to decrease and sensitivity to competition to increase in most forests of the Iberian Peninsula (in all but the northern Atlantic forests), making these management considerations even more important in the future.     

利用cDNA微阵列-CGH筛选支气管上皮细胞恶性转化中的扩增基因

目的:基因组不稳定是导致肺癌发生与发展的重要分子机理之一。本研究旨在筛选支气管上皮细胞恶性转化过程中拷贝数扩增的基因。方法:利用业已建立的支气管上皮细胞体外恶性转化模型,通过cDNA微阵列-CGH技术对支气管上皮来源的永生化细胞和癌变细胞的基因拷贝数进行了检测,并对部分结果进行了实时PCR验证。结果:永生化BEP2D细胞染色体中的某些区域存在不同程度的扩增,包括5q31.3、9q32-33.1、14q22.2-23.1、19p13.12-13.13、20q13.12-13.31;恶性转化BERP35T2细胞染色体中的扩增区域集中在1p12-13.1、5q33.1、5q31.3、9q32、19p13.12-13.13;5q31.3、9q32、19q13.12-13.13是以上2种细胞系中的共同扩增区域。共检测到201个基因的拷贝数发生扩增,其中PCNA、TP53及GADD45A基因的异常扩增已经实时PCR进一步验证。结论:在支气管上皮细胞恶性转化过程中,病毒与低剂量辐射的双重作用使得某些重要基因的拷贝数发生扩增,因基因剂量增加而导致某些癌基因高表达可能是细胞恶性转化的重要机制之一。

mTOR信号通路及其与阿尔茨海默病的关系

哺乳动物雷帕霉素靶蛋白mTOR是一个进化上十分保守的蛋白激酶,属于PIKK超家族。在细胞内mTOR存在两种功能不同的复合体mTORC1和mTORC2。mTOR主要通过接受上游信号分子Rheb、TSC1/TSC2的调控来整合细胞内外信号,其下游效应器是4E-BP和p70S6K,通过影响特定mRNA的翻译调节细胞的生长和增殖。在神经系统方面,神经元的发育、突触可塑性的调节、学习和记忆的形成都依赖于适当的mTOR通路的活化。新近的研究显示,神经退行性疾病阿尔茨海默病患者表现mTOR通路的异常,在双转基因鼠中,APP和PS1表达与mTOR/P70S6K下调关联,并影响精神状态评分。mTOR信号通路生理功能和调节机制的研究对了解AD的发病机理和寻找药物靶点具有重要意义。
