Abstract
In both sickle cell disease and malaria, red blood cells (RBCs) are phagocytosed in the spleen, but receptor-ligand pairs mediating uptake have not been identified. Here, we report that patches of high mannose N-glycans (Man5-9GlcNAc2), expressed on diseased or oxidized RBC surfaces, bind the mannose receptor (CD206) on phagocytes to mediate clearance. We find that extravascular hemolysis in sickle cell disease correlates with high mannose glycan levels on RBCs. Furthermore, Plasmodium falciparum-infected RBCs expose surface mannose N-glycans, which occur at significantly higher levels on infected RBCs from sickle cell trait subjects compared to those lacking hemoglobin S. The glycans are associated with high molecular weight complexes and protease-resistant, lower molecular weight fragments containing spectrin. Recognition of surface N-linked high mannose glycans as a response to cellular stress is a molecular mechanism common to both the pathogenesis of sickle cell disease and resistance to severe malaria in sickle cell trait.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our goal was to determine the expression and activity of 15-hydroxy-prostaglandin dehydrogenase, a prostaglandin-metabolizing enzyme, in differentiating trophoblasts in vitro. STUDY DESIGN Cytotrophoblasts from placentas of term healthy women were cultured in either Ham's-Waymouth medium, which hinders the process of cytotrophoblast differentiation, or medium 199, which facilitates differentiation into syncytiotrophoblasts. 15-Hydroxy-prostaglandin dehydrogenase expression was determined with Western immunoblotting, and activity was measured by a specific enzyme immunoassay of 13, 14-dihydro-15-keto prostaglandin F2 alpha, an inactive product of 15-hydroxy-prostaglandin dehydrogenase activity. RESULTS The expression and activity of 15-hydroxy-prostaglandin dehydrogenase were enhanced during trophoblast differentiation and were higher in cells grown in medium 199 than in those grown in Ham's-Waymouth medium. 8-Bromo-cyclic adenosine monophosphate, which stimulates prostaglandin H synthase-2 expression, diminished the expression and activity of 15-hydroxy-prostaglandin dehydrogenase in concentration- and time-dependent manners. CONCLUSIONS 15-Hydroxy-prostaglandin dehydrogenase expression and activity are regulated during trophoblast differentiation and by cyclic adenosine monophosphate. Coordinated expression of l5-hydroxy-prostaglandin dehydrogenase and prostaglandin H synthase-2 contributes to the regulation of prostaglandin release from trophoblasts.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Recent studies suggest that subtle vitamin K depletion has far-reaching consequences. As this entity is not associated with prothrombin time elevation, it is important to determine whether alternate methods can help identify it. We investigated subtle vitamin K depletion in a hospital setting and determined whether protein calorie malnutrition predicts its presence. DESIGN, SETTING, SUBJECTS Using a high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) assay of plasma phylloquinone and a food frequency questionnaire for phylloquinone intake, we examined the phylloquinone status of 27 hospitalized patients with normal coagulation parameters, no liver disease, and no recent warfarin use. We assessed protein-calorie nutritional status with Reilly's criteria and anthropometrics. RESULTS 51% of patients (95% CI = 31% to 70%) had evidence of subtle vitamin K depletion as defined by a subnormal plasma phylloquinone concentration. Patients whose phylloquinone intake was less than the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) over the preceding year had lower plasma phylloquinone concentrations when compared to other patients: median (range) 0.106 nmol/l (0.022-0.461) versus 0.301 nmol/l (0.067-3.928), respectively (P = 0.023). Plasma phylloquinone concentrations were no different, however, between well-nourished and malnourished patients: median (range) 0.245 nmol/l (0.022-0.522) versus 0.188 nmol/l (0.067-3.928), respectively (P=0.782). CONCLUSIONS Subtle vitamin K depletion is common among hospitalized patients and protein-calorie malnutrition does not predict its presence.
