Abstract
In January 2011, tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plants exhibiting stunting, yellow mosaic, short, chlorotic leaves, aborted flowers, and reduced-size fruits, symptoms similar to those exhibited by plants infected by 'Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum' (2), were observed in approximately 5% of tomato plants in greenhouses in Jocotitlan in the State of Mexico, Mexico. Occasional plant recovery was also observed. Tomato plants in this facility were previously shown to be infected by Mexican papita viroid (MPVd), Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV), and aster yellows phytoplasma. Eight symptomatic leaf samples (designated MX11-01 to MX11-08) were collected and screened against selected tomato viruses and pospiviroids by reverse transcription (RT)-PCR using purified plant RNA or for 'Ca. L. solanacearum' by PCR using purified plant DNA. As expected, both PepMV and MPVd were detected in these samples. However, two 'Ca. L. solanacearum'-specific PCR products (1,168 and 669 bp) were also amplified in two samples (MX11-02 and MX11-05) using primers OA2 (2) and OI2c (1) or CL514F/CL514R (3), respectively. Each 'Ca. L. solanacearum'-specific PCR product was gel purified with Geneclean (Q-Biogene, Carlsbad, CA) and cloned into pCR2.1 using TOPO TA cloning kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) and sequenced (Functional Biosciences, Madison, WI). Sequences of 16S rRNA (1,168 bp) in both isolates (GenBank Accession Nos. JF811596 and JF811597) were identical. However, the 669-bp 50S rRNA sequences in these two isolates (GenBank Accession Nos. JF811598 and JF811599) contained two single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mutations. BLASTn searches showed that both 16S rRNA and 50S gene sequences in MX11-05 were identical to the 'Ca. L. solanacearum' previously identified on potato in Chihuahua (GenBank Accession Nos. FJ829811 and FJ829812) and Saltillo (GenBank Accession Nos. FJ498806 or FJ498807) in eastern Mexico. These 'Ca. L. solanacearum' isolates were recently classified as the "b" haplotype (4). Alignment analysis of the 'Ca. L. solanacearum' 16S rRNA sequences also revealed the conserved SNP mutations (g.212T > G and g.581T > C) in MX11-02 and MX11-05 as previously identified for other "b" haplotype isolates (4). 'Ca. L. solanacearum' was first identified in greenhouse tomatoes in 2008 in New Zealand (2). It has also been identified in greenhouse and field tomatoes in the United States. 'Ca. L. solanacearum' was previously reported to infect field tomatoes in Sinaloa, Mexico (3), which was recently considered as the "a" haplotype (4). To our knowledge, this is the first report of 'Ca. L. solanacearum' naturally infecting tomatoes in Jocotitlan in the State of Mexico, Mexico. The greenhouse tomato 'Ca. L. solanacearum' may be transmitted from infected solanaceous plants by potato psyllids (Bactericera cockerelli), which were observed in this facility. References: (1) S. Jagoueix et al. Int. J.

Abstract
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are involved in the muscle wasting caused by trauma, inactivity, and stress. In the present study, three experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of GCs on the expression of genes related to muscle development in chickens. Broilers at 7 or 35 days of age were subjected to dexamethasone (DEX) treatment (2 mg/kg body mass (BM)) for 3 or 7 days. The expression levels of genes such as IGF1, IGF1 receptor, MSTN, WW domain containing E3 ubiquitin (UB) protein ligase 1, myogenic determining factor, and myogenic factor 5 were measured. The results showed that BM gain was significantly suppressed by DEX treatment. The plasma level of insulin was increased (P<0.05) by DEX treatment at feeding, whereas IGF1 was decreased (P<0.05). The expression of genes in the IGF1, myostatin, and UB-proteasome (UBP) pathways were altered by DEX treatment in age- and exposure time-related ways. These results suggest that GCs suppress IGF1 and upregulate myostatin and/or activated myostatin and the UBP pathway, which might be the source of the effect of GCs on muscle development.

Abstract
Safingol is a sphingolipid with promising anticancer potential, which is currently in phase I clinical trial. Yet, the underlying mechanisms of its action remain largely unknown. We reported here that safingol-induced primarily accidental necrotic cell death in MDA-MB-231 and HT-29 cells, as shown by the increase in the percentage of cells stained positive for 7-aminoactinomycin D, collapse of mitochondria membrane potential and depletion of intracellular ATP. Importantly, safingol treatment produced time- and concentration-dependent reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. Autophagy was triggered following safingol treatment, as reflected by the formation of autophagosomes, acidic vacuoles, increased light chain 3-II and Atg biomarkers expression. Interestingly, scavenging ROS with N-acetyl-L-cysteine could prevent the autophagic features and reverse safingol-induced necrosis. Our data also suggested that autophagy was a cell repair mechanism, as suppression of autophagy by 3-methyladenine or bafilomycin A1 significantly augmented cell death on 2-5 μM safingol treatment. In addition, Bcl-xL and Bax might be involved in the regulation of safingol-induced autophagy. Finally, glucose uptake was shown to be inhibited by safingol treatment, which was associated with an increase in p-AMPK expression. Taken together, our data suggested that ROS was the mediator of safingol-induced cancer cell death, and autophagy is likely to be a mechanism triggered to repair damages from ROS generation on safingol treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intracranial large artery disease (ICLAD), such as stenosis and calcification, is common in Chinese patients with stroke. However, little is known about ICLAD and its association with large arterial stiffness in hypertensive patients. METHODS We recruited 270 (mean age 61.0 years, 45.6% male) untreated hypertensive patients without stroke from a community in Shanghai, China. ICLAD was detected by computerized tomographic angiography (CTA). Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV), office, and 24-h ambulatory pulse pressure (PP) as well as ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI) were determined as the measures of arterial stiffness. RESULTS Among all participants, 26 (9.6%) had concurrent intracranial arterial stenosis and calcification, 11 (4.1%) stenosis only, and 71 (26.3%) calcifications only. After adjustment for age, mean arterial pressure, and other covariables, there was significant difference in cf-PWV (13.1 vs. 13.7 vs. 15.0 m/s; P = 0.0015) and 24-h PP (46.7 vs. 48.8 vs. 55.7 mm Hg; P = 0.0007) between patients with normal vessels (n = 162), with stenosis or calcification (n = 82), and with both lesions (n = 26). Multiple ordinal logistic regression analyses showed that both cf-PWV and 24-h PP were independently associated with ICLAD. Odds ratios (95% confidence interval (CI)) of ICLAD after multivariable and mutually adjustment were 1.51 (1.09-2.10) and 1.46 (1.06-2.01) for 1-s.d. increase in cf-PWV and 24-h PP, respectively. No significant association (P ≥ 0.10) with AASI or office PP was observed in multivariable analysis. CONCLUSION Increased arterial stiffness was independently associated with ICLAD. cf-PWV and 24-h PP might be useful in identifying those more likely to have ICLAD among hypertensive patients.

Abstract
169 Background: The combination of paclitaxel (P) and carboplatin (C) has broad anti-tumor activity in multiple tumor types including prostate and bladder cancer. Overexpression of Bcl-2 is a common mechanism of resistance to cytotoxic chemotherapy. AT-101 is an oral inhibitor of Bcl- 2-family-anti-apoptotic proteins. We conducted a phase I study of the combination of AT-101, P and C. Methods: Ph I study in pts with refractory solid tumors, ECOG 0-1, using a standard 3+3 design to evaluate safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD). AT-101 was administered orally on Days 1-3 Q12 hr. P and C were administered intravenously on day 1 every 21 days. Dosing levels (DL) were 1: AT-101 40 mg BID, P 150mg/m2, C AUC 5; and DL 2: AT-101 40 mg BID, P 175/m2, C AUC 6. 12 additional pts treated at the MTD dose level were divided into two groups – with AT-101 omitted in the morning of C1D1 or C2D1 to assess apoptotic markers during P and C chemotherapy with and without AT-101. Results: 24 pts (CRPC-11, colon-3, breast-3 melanoma-2, penile-1, esophageal adeno-1, thymus adeno-1, bladder neuroendocrine-1, NSCLC-1) with median age of 61.5 were enrolled. 6 pts were treated in DL1, and 18 in DL2 (the MTD). Dose limiting toxicities were G3 abdominal pain (1 pt, DL1) and G3 ALT (1pt, DL2). Common G1/G2 AEs were nausea, vomiting, fatigue, anorexia and neutropenia. 4 pts had dose reductions after cycle 1 due to AEs. 12 pts had GCSF added after C1 due to neutropenia. 4/11 (36%) pts with CRPC (all previously treated with docetaxel) had PSA declines of ≥50% and 4 pts had stable disease from 4 to 14 cycles. 2 pts with CRPC had a PR by RECIST. Additionally, 1 pt with esophageal CA had a CR and 1 pt with NSCLC had a PR. PK analysis demonstrated P PK was not influenced by co- administration of C and AT-101 when compared with historical reports (Siddiqui BJC 1997). The PK of AT-101 was not altered significantly by the P dose levels. Conclusions: The addition of AT-101 to PC chemotherapy is well tolerated and clinically active in advanced cancer pts. The combination of AT-101 and PC may be appropriate for further study in pts with chemorefractory CRPC. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
