Abstract
INTRODUCTION Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) prognosis is poor. Immunotherapies to enhance the antibody-induced natural killer (NK) cell antitumor activity are emerging for TNBC that is frequently immunogenic. The aspartic protease cathepsin D (cath-D), a tumor cell-associated extracellular protein with protumor activity and a poor prognosis marker in TNBC, is a prime target for antibody-based therapy to induce NK cell-mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). This study investigated whether Fc-engineered anti-cath-D antibodies trigger ADCC, their impact on antitumor efficacy and tumor-infiltrating NK cells, and their relevance for combinatory therapy in TNBC. METHODS Cath-D expression and localization in TNBC samples were evaluated by western blotting, immunofluorescence, and immunohistochemistry. The binding of human anti-cath-D F1M1 and Fc-engineered antibody variants, which enhance (F1M1-Fc+) or prevent (F1M1-Fc-) affinity for CD16a, to secreted human and murine cath-D was analyzed by ELISA, and to CD16a by surface plasmon resonance and flow cytometry. NK cell activation was investigated by flow cytometry, and ADCC by lactate dehydrogenase release. The antitumor efficacy of F1M1 Fc-variants was investigated using TNBC cell xenografts in nude mice. NK cell recruitment, activation, and cytotoxic activity were analyzed in MDA-MB-231 cell xenografts by immunophenotyping and RT-qPCR. NK cells were depleted using an anti-asialo GM1 antibody. F1M1-Fc+ antitumor effect was assessed in TNBC patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) and TNBC SUM159 cell xenografts, and in combination with paclitaxel or enzalutamide. RESULTS Cath-D expression on the TNBC cell surface could be exploited to induce ADCC. F1M1 Fc-variants recognized human and mouse cath-D. F1M1-Fc+ activated NK cells in vitro and induced ADCC against TNBC cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts more efficiently than F1M1. F1M1-Fc- was ineffective. In the MDA-MB-231 cell xenograft model, F1M1-Fc+ displayed higher antitumor activity than F1M1, whereas F1M1-Fc- was less effective, reflecting the importance of Fc-dependent mechanisms in vivo. F1M1-Fc+ triggered tumor-infiltrating NK cell recruitment, activation and cytotoxic activity in MDA-MB-231 cell xenografts. NK cell depletion impaired F1M1-Fc+ antitumor activity, demonstrating their key role. F1M1-Fc+ inhibited growth of SUM159 cell xenografts and two TNBC PDXs. In combination therapy, F1M1-Fc+ improved paclitaxel and enzalutamide therapeutic efficacy without toxicity. CONCLUSIONS F1M1-Fc+ is a promising immunotherapy for TNBC that could be combined with conventional regimens, including chemotherapy or antiandrogens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has poorer outcomes than other breast cancers (BC), including HER2+ BC. Cathepsin D (CathD) is a poor prognosis marker overproduced by BC cells, hypersecreted in the tumour microenvironment with tumour-promoting activity. Here, we characterized the immunomodulatory activity of the anti-CathD antibody F1 and its improved Fab-aglycosylated version (F1M1) in immunocompetent mouse models of TNBC (C57BL/6 mice harbouring E0771 cell grafts) and HER2-amplified BC (BALB/c mice harbouring TUBO cell grafts). EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH CathD expression was evaluated by western blotting and immunofluorescence, and antibody binding to CathD by ELISA. Antibody anti-tumour efficacy was investigated in mouse models. Immune cell recruitment and activation were assessed by immunohistochemistry, immunophenotyping, and RT-qPCR. KEY RESULTS F1 and F1M1 antibodies remodelled the tumour immune landscape. Both antibodies promoted innate antitumour immunity by preventing the recruitment of immunosuppressive M2-polarized tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs) and by activating natural killer cells in the tumour microenvironment of both models. This translated into a reduction of T-cell exhaustion markers in the tumour microenvironment that could be locally supported by enhanced activation of anti-tumour antigen-presenting cell (M1-polarized TAMs and cDC1 cells) functions. Both antibodies inhibited tumour growth in the highly-immunogenic E0771 model, but only marginally in the immune-excluded TUBO model, indicating that anti-CathD immunotherapy is more relevant for BC with a high immune cell infiltrate, as often observed in TNBC. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATION Anti-CathD antibody-based therapy triggers the anti-tumour innate and adaptive immunity in preclinical models of BC and is a promising immunotherapy for immunogenic TNBC.

Abstract
Malignant primary rectal melanomas (PRM) are rare tumors. Their diagnosis is frequently delayed as these lesions are often mistaken for benign diseases, resulting in extremely poor overall survival. Histological evaluation with special immunohistochemical (IHC) stains is often indispensable for a definitive diagnosis. The main treatment for this condition involves surgical resection. Adjuvant therapy has also been long recommended. We discuss the case of a 60-year-old woman who presented with changes in bowel habits, anal pain, and perineal burning with no bleeding. A digital rectal examination revealed a nodular mass extending 5 cm from the anal verge. Rectosigmoidoscopy demonstrated an ulcerated polypoid tumor extending 4 cm from the anal verge and over 5 cm into the lower rectum. Biopsy and IHC tests confirmed the diagnosis of rectal melanoma. The patient was successfully managed with surgery followed by external beam radiotherapy and a complete response was achieved after 10 months of follow-up.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive breast cancer subtype and lacks specific targeted therapeutic agents. The current mechanistic evidence from cell-based studies suggests that the matricellular protein SPARC has a tumor-promoting role in TNBC; however, data on the clinical relevance of SPARC expression/secretion by tumor and stromal cells in TNBC are limited. Here, we analyzed by immunohistochemistry the prognostic value of tumor and stromal cell SPARC expression in 148 patients with non-metastatic TNBC and long follow-up (median: 5.4 years). We also quantified PD-L1 and PD-1 expression. We detected SPARC expression in tumor cells (42.4%), cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs; 88.1%), tumor-associated macrophages (77.1%), endothelial cells (75.2%) and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (9.8%). Recurrence-free survival was significantly lower in patients with SPARC-expressing CAFs. Multivariate analysis showed that SPARC expression in CAFs was an independent prognostic factor. We also detected tumor and stromal cell SPARC expression in TNBC cytosols, and in patient-derived xenografts and cell lines. Furthermore, we analyzed publicly available single-cell mRNA sequencing data and found that in TNBC, SPARC is expressed by different CAF subpopulations, including myofibroblasts and inflammatory fibroblasts that are involved in tumor-related processes. We then showed that fibroblast-secreted SPARC had a tumor-promoting role by inhibiting TNBC cell adhesion and stimulating their motility and invasiveness. Overall, our study demonstrates that SPARC expression in CAFs is an independent prognostic marker of poor outcome in TNBC. Patients with SPARC-expressing CAFs could be eligible for anti-SPARC targeted therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A post-acne hyperpigmentation index (PAHPI) has been developed in the United States to better compare therapeutic modalities. Our aim in this study was to validate the PAHPI score in patients with skin type VI from sub-Saharan Africa. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study was conducted in Dakar, Senegal. Twenty-one patients with Fitzpatrick skin type VI, aged 17 to 55 years, presenting hyperpigmentation secondary to acne were included. Ongoing use of skin bleaching products or acne treatments was allowed. Four trained dermatologists rated the patients using the PAHPI. A narrow-band reflectance spectrophotometer (Mexameter MX-18, Cologne, Germany) was used to measure the degree of pigmentation of involved and adjacent skin on 6 representative facial lesions. RESULTS The average inter-rater reliability (weighted Kappa) showed substantial agreement for intensity (0.67), moderate agreement for number (0.53) and fair agreement for lesion size (0.28). Inter-rater reliability for the total PAHPI was excellent for both day 1 and day 2 (interclass correlation coefficient of 0.87 and 0.85, respectively; P<0.0001). Intra-rater reliability for total PAHPI ranged from 0.83 to 0.93 (P<0.0001). PAHPI scoring thus demonstrated excellent reliability both between and within raters. The association was moderate to substantial for all raters on both days (range for rho on day 1: 0.531 to 0.815; range for rho on day 2: 0.448 0.762). The correlations between the Mexameter (Courage and Khazaka) measurements and PAHPI scores showed moderate to substantial agreement. CONCLUSION Although tested primarily in African American women to date, PAHPI is also valid for patients from sub-Saharan Africa.

Abstract
Osteosarcomas of the craniofacial bones account for less than 10% of all osteosarcomas. Primary osteosarcomas of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinus are rare localization (0.5%-8.1% of osteosarcomas occur in this site). Accordingly, we report a case of osteosarcoma arising de novo from the ethmoid bone in a 46-year-old female. Initially, she presented with headache, bilateral epistaxis, and postnasal drip. Biopsy revealed an osteosarcoma ethmoidal. The patient was treated by a neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgical resection and radiotherapy.

Abstract
Inkjet printing inks frequently contain polar liquids of low volatility such as glycerol or poly(ethylene glycols) in addition to the main solvent water. The deposition of these liquids on paper sheets induces swelling of the cellulose fibers, which leads to an overall, anisotropic deformation of the sheet. We characterized the corresponding strain components by means of a grid projection method and white light interferometry. For pure water, most of the hydroexpansion strain vanishes again after drying is complete. However, for aqueous solutions of non-volatile co-solvents, a large fraction of the deformation persists after the water has evaporated. Because swelling occurs only after liquid enters the cellulose fibers, monitoring the dynamics of expansion provides insight into the pore-fiber distribution of co-solvents. The corresponding timescales of pore-fiber transport strongly depend on the co-solvent concentration, as a sufficient quantity of water is needed to plasticize the fiber walls.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aims of this study were: determination of the CTV to PTV margins for prostate and pelvic lymph nodes. Investigation of the impact of registration modality (pelvic bones or prostate) on the CTV to PTV margins of pelvic lymph nodes. Investigation of the variations of bladder and rectum over the treatment course. Investigation of the impact of bladder and rectum variations on prostate position. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study included 15 patients treated for prostate adenocarcinoma. Daily kilo voltage images and weekly CBCT scans were performed to assess prostate displacements and common and external iliac vessels motion. These data was used to calculate the CTV to PTV margins using Van Herk equation in the setting of a daily bone registration. We also compared the CTV to PTV margins of pelvic lymph nodes according to registration method; based on pelvic bone or prostate. We delineated bladder and rectum on all CBCT scans to assess their variations over treatment course at 4 anatomic levels [1.5cm above pubic bone (PB), superior edge, mid- and inferior edge of PB]. RESULTS Using Van Herk equation, the prostate CTV to PTV margins (bone registration) were 8.03mm, 5.42mm and 8.73mm in AP, ML and SI direction with more than 97% of prostate displacements were less than 5mm. The CTV to PTV margins ranged from 3.12mm to 3.25mm for external iliac vessels and from 3.12mm to 4.18mm for common iliac vessels. Compared to registration based on prostate alignment, bone registration resulted in an important reduction of the CTV to PTV margins up to 54.3% for external iliac vessels and up to 39.6% for common iliac vessels. There was no significant variation of the mean bladder volume over the treatment course. There was a significant variation of the mean rectal volume before and after the third week of treatment. After the third week, the mean rectal volume seemed to be stable. The uni- and multivariate analysis identified the anterior wall of rectum as independent factor acting on prostate motion in AP direction at 2 levels (superior edge of, mid PB). The right rectal wall influenced the prostate motion in ML direction at inferior edge of PB. The bladder volume tends toward significance as factor acting on prostate motion in AP direction. CONCLUSIONS We recommend CTV to PTV margins of 8mm, 6mm and 9mm in AP, ML and SI directions for prostate. And, we suggest 4mm and 5mm for external and common iliac vessels respectively. We also prefer registration based on bony landmarks to minimize bowel irradiation. More CBCT scans should be performed during the first 3weeks and especially the first week to check rectum volume.

Abstract
Background: In the triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) group, the luminal androgen receptor subtype is characterized by expression of androgen receptor (AR) and lack of estrogen receptor and cytokeratin 5/6 expression. Cathepsin D (Cath-D) is overproduced and hypersecreted by breast cancer (BC) cells and is a poor prognostic marker. We recently showed that in TNBC, Cath-D is a potential target for antibody-based therapy. This study evaluated the frequency of AR/Cath-D co-expression and its prognostic value in a large series of patients with non-metastatic TNBC. Methods: AR and Cath-D expression was evaluated by immunohistochemistry in 147 non-metastatic TNBC. The threshold for AR positivity (AR+) was set at ≥1% of stained cells, and the threshold for Cath-D positivity (Cath-D+) was moderate/strong staining intensity. Lymphocyte density, macrophage infiltration, PD-L1 and programmed cell death (PD-1) expression were assessed. Results: Scarff-Bloom-Richardson grade 1–2 and lymph node invasion were more frequent, while macrophage infiltration was less frequent in AR+/Cath-D+ tumors (62.7%). In multivariate analyses, higher tumor size, no adjuvant chemotherapy and AR/Cath-D co-expression were independent prognostic factors of worse overall survival. Conclusions: AR/Cath-D co-expression independently predicted overall survival. Patients with TNBC in which AR and Cath-D are co-expressed could be eligible for combinatory therapy with androgen antagonists and anti-Cath-D human antibodies.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Microarrays studies identified the subtype of luminal androgen receptor (LAR) among triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). This subgroup is distinct of basal-like tumors and is characterized by the lack of ER, CK5/6 expression but the expression of genes that are usually expressed by ER+ luminal tumors like androgen receptor (AR). Using immunohistochemistry (IHC) AR is expressed in 8-58% of TNBC and its prognostic value is controverted.
The aspartic protease cathepsin D (cath-D) is overproduced and hypersecreted by breast cancer (BC) cells and is often described as a marker of poor prognosis. We have already shown that cath-D is a tumor-specific extracellular target in TNBC suitable for antibody-based therapy.
We aimed at evaluating co-expression AR/cath-D-associated profiles and its prognostic value in a large retrospective series of patients with non-metastatic TNBC with a long follow-up.
Patients and methods: AR and cath-D expression were evaluated by IHC in tissue microarrays of 147 patients with non-metastatic TNBC treated in our center between 2002 and 2012. Positivity threshold was set at ≥1% nuclear staining for AR. In tumor epithelial BC with vesicular and peripheral membrane labeling, cath-D signal was scored as absent (0%), low (<20%), moderate (20-50%) or high (>50%). Tumors were defined as cath-D+ for staining ≥ 20%. Basal-like phenotype (CK5/6 and/or EGFR+), lymphocytic infiltration, PD-L1 expression and macrophages infiltration were also assessed.
Results: Median age was 61.6 years (range 30.2-98.6). 53.1% of tumors were classified pT1 and 61.2% pN0. We found 86.2% of ductal carcinomas, 6.9% of lobular carcinomas and 6.9% of other histological types. SBR grade 1-2 represented 11% of tumors. A basal-like phenotype was observed in 61.6% of cases. Adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT) was delivered in 68% of patients.
72.8% of patients had AR+ tumors. Among the 142 patients with available AR/cath-D co-expression 62.7% had AR+ and cath-D+ tumors. AR+/cath-D+ tumors exhibited more frequently: lymph node invasion (p=0.04), less frequently macrophages infiltration (p=0.04) and a trend of lower nuclear grade (1/2) (p=0.06) than others TNBC. There was no significant difference regarding basal-like phenotype, lymphocytic infiltration or PD-L1 expression.
With a median follow-up of 5.4 years, there was a trend for a lower relapse-free survival (RFS) for patients with AR+/cath-D+ tumors (p=0.09): 3-years RFS were 67.4% (CI 95% [54.1-77.6]) and 81.9% (CI 95% [68.0-90.1]) for AR+/cath-D+ and the others TNBC, respectively. 5-years RFS were 57.6% (CI 95% [43.0-69.7]) and 71.4% (CI 95% [55.4-82.5]) for AR+/cath-D+ and the others TNBC, respectively. Tumor size, nodal status and ACT were also statistically correlated to RFS. In univariate analysis, age (p=0.01), tumor size (p=0.002), nodal status (p=0.004), ACT (p=0.004) were significantly associated with overall survival (OS). There was a trend for AR/cath-D co-expression (p=0.086). In multivariate analyses, tumor size (p=0.002), ACT (p<0.001) and AR/cath-D co-expression (p<0.001) were independent prognostic factors.
Conclusions: In this series, almost 63% of TNBC had an AR/cath-D co-expression with distinct clinicopathological characteristics. AR+/cath-D+ co-expression independently predicted OS. Patients with AR+/cath-D+ tumors tended to have higher risk of late recurrences than patients with others TNBC. These biomarkers could be useful to identify a specific subgroup of TNBC with worse prognosis and could have therapeutic implications: anti-androgens are under investigation; pre-clinical studies are ongoing with anti-cath-D antibodies.

Abstract
Gaming has increasingly become a part of life in Africa. Currently, no data on gaming disorders or their association with mental disorders exist for African countries. This study for the first time investigated (1) the prevalence of insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness, anxiety and depression among African gamers, (2) the association between these conditions and gamer types (i.e., non-problematic, engaged, problematic and addicted) and (3) the predictive power of socioeconomic markers (education, age, income, marital status, employment status) on these conditions. 10,566 people from 2 low- (Rwanda, Gabon), 6 lower-middle (Cameroon, Nigeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Senegal, Ivory Coast) and 1 upper-middle income countries (South Africa) completed online questionnaires containing validated measures on insomnia, sleepiness, anxiety, depression and gaming addiction. Results showed our sample of gamers (24 ± 2.8 yrs; 88.64% Male), 30% were addicted, 30% were problematic, 8% were engaged and 32% were non-problematic. Gaming significantly contributed to 86.9% of the variance in insomnia, 82.7% of the variance in daytime sleepiness and 82.3% of the variance in anxiety [p < 0.001]. This study establishes the prevalence of gaming, mood and sleep disorders, in a large African sample. Our results corroborate previous studies, reporting problematic and addicted gamers show poorer health outcomes compared with non-problematic gamers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) treatment is currently restricted to chemotherapy. Hence, tumor-specific molecular targets and/or alternative therapeutic strategies for TNBC are urgently needed. Immunotherapy is emerging as an exciting treatment option for TNBC patients. The aspartic protease cathepsin D (cath-D), a marker of poor prognosis in breast cancer (BC), is overproduced and hypersecreted by human BC cells. This study explores whether cath-D is a tumor cell-associated extracellular biomarker and a potent target for antibody-based therapy in TNBC. METHODS Cath-D prognostic value and localization was evaluated by transcriptomics, proteomics and immunohistochemistry in TNBC. First-in-class anti-cath-D human scFv fragments binding to both human and mouse cath-D were generated using phage display and cloned in the human IgG1 λ format (F1 and E2). Anti-cath-D antibody biodistribution, antitumor efficacy and in vivo underlying mechanisms were investigated in TNBC MDA-MB-231 tumor xenografts in nude mice. Antitumor effect was further assessed in TNBC patient-derived xenografts (PDXs). RESULTS High CTSD mRNA levels correlated with shorter recurrence-free survival in TNBC, and extracellular cath-D was detected in the tumor microenvironment, but not in matched normal breast stroma. Anti-cath-D F1 and E2 antibodies accumulated in TNBC MDA-MB-231 tumor xenografts, inhibited tumor growth and improved mice survival without apparent toxicity. The Fc function of F1, the best antibody candidate, was essential for maximal tumor inhibition in the MDA-MB-231 model. Mechanistically, F1 antitumor response was triggered through natural killer cell activation via IL-15 upregulation, associated with granzyme B and perforin production, and the release of antitumor IFNγ cytokine. The F1 antibody also prevented the tumor recruitment of immunosuppressive tumor-associated macrophages M2 and myeloid-derived suppressor cells, a specific effect associated with a less immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment highlighted by TGFβ decrease. Finally, the antibody F1 inhibited tumor growth of two TNBC PDXs, isolated from patients resistant or not to neo-adjuvant chemotherapy. CONCLUSION Cath-D is a tumor-specific extracellular target in TNBC suitable for antibody-based therapy. Immunomodulatory antibody-based strategy against cath-D is a promising immunotherapy to treat patients with TNBC.

Abstract
Background Pelvic recurrences of cervical cancer after primary surgical treatment can be potentially cured with radical hysterectomy or chemoradiation therapy. Combined radio-chemotherapy is believed to improve results compared to other option. Currently, RapidArc radiotherapy is considered an excellent technological advance that shows great potential for producing highly conformal doses to treatment volumes. Case presentation We present a case of a 67-year-old woman with history of early cervical cancer initially treated by radical laparoscopic hysterectomy. More than 5 years later, the patient presented with a central pelvic vaginal cuff recurrence that is histologically confirmed. Salvage radiotherapy using RapidArc with concurrent cisplatin-based chemotherapy was indicated. A high dose of 70 Gy was delivered to the gross recurrent disease with simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) to the subclinical disease and good sparing of organs at risk especially the rectum and sigmoid. Conclusions This case clearly demonstrates a large benefit for salvage RapidArc radiotherapy to central pelvic recurrences of gynecological cancers with an excellent rate of local control and less rate of toxicity.

Abstract
Carcinoma of unknown primary (CUP) is the metastasis of epithelial malignancy whose origin remains unknown. Bronchial carcinoma is the most common cause (45%), however, in more than a quarter of cases, its origin is unknown and the choice of therapy often justifies a histopathological precision brought by the immuno-histochemistry. We present a rare case of cerebral metastasis, revealing an unknown lung cancer after a comprehensive review. This is a patient aged 53 years, chronic smoker, who presented a year and a half ago a sudden loss of consciousness with afebrile tonic-clonic seizure of spontaneous resolution. Clinical examination was unremarkable. Brain imaging by MRI has objectified the presence of two parietal tissue formations, which stereotactic biopsy with histological and immuno-histochemical favored metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma origin. An etiologic in search of the primitive lung remained negative (chest X-ray of face, chest CT and bronchoscopy with sampling upper gastrointestinal endoscopy). The rest of the etiologic, looking for another primitive, remained negative. The diagnosis of a bronchogenic carcinoma with brain metastasis is therefore withheld. The patient received two brain radiotherapies (gamma kniff) with regression of the two nodular formations. We have not given specific treatment and have called for very close monitoring of the patient who remained stable after 18 months. Through this observation, we stress the interest of the histology and immuno-histochemistry of carcinoma of unknown primary (CUP) to the diagnosis, guide therapy and determine prognosis.

Abstract
Particulate dense suspensions behave as complex fluids. They do not lend themselves easily to analytical solution. We propose an analytical model to mimic this problem. Namely, we consider arrays of long parallel plates which represent a simplification of arrays of chains of spherical particles. This simplified model can be solved analytically. The effect of effective rotation of the spherical particles is taken into account by attributing different velocities on each side of the plate that mimics the fact that particles are subject to shear. This work is an extension of a previous study where particle rotation was disregarded. The flow rate, the dissipation and the apparent viscosity are studied as a function of the underlying structure. For a single plate placed out of the flow center, the viscosity is lower when rotation is taken into account. For two plates, the minimal viscosity corresponds to the situation where the particles are as close as possible to the center and arranged symmetrically with respect to the center. We compute the rheological properties for arbitrary plate positions, and exploit them for a periodic arrangement. For N plates, and in a confined geometry, the viscosity is about twice as small as compared to the situation where rotation is ignored. We have conducted a numerical study of a suspension of spherical particles, and linear chains of spherical particles. The numerical study is in good qualitative and semiquantitative agreement with the analytical theory considering long plates. This agreement highlights the fact that our analytical model captures the essential features of a real suspension. The numerical study is based on a fluid dynamic particle method where the particles are represented by a scalar field having high viscosity inside.

Abstract
The culture of opine-producing transgenic Lotus plants induces the increase in the rhizosphere of bacterial communities that are able to utilize these molecules as sole carbon source. We used transgenic Lotus plants producing two opines, namely mannopine and nopaline, to characterize the microbial communities directly influenced by the modification of root exudation. We showed that opine-utilizers represent a large community in the rhizosphere of opine-producing transgenic Lotus. This community is composed of at least 12 different bacterial species, one third of which are able to utilize the opine mannopine and two thirds the opine nopaline. Opine utilizers are diverse, belonging to the Gram-positive and -negative bacteria. We described two novel mannopine-utilizing species, Rhizobium and Duganella spp., and five novel nopaline-utilizing species, Duganella, Afipia, Phyllobacterium, Arthrobacter, and Bosea spp. Although opine utilizers mostly belong to the alpha-Proteobacteria, Rhizobiaceae family, there is little overlap between the populations able to utilize each of the two opines produced by the plants. Noticeably, in the rhizosphere of transgenic Lotus, only the opine mannopine favors the growth of Agrobacterium tumefaciens, the bacterium from which opines have been characterized. The diversity of opine utilizers from the rhizosphere of Lotus plants is greater than that observed from any other environment. Therefore, transgenic plants with engineered exudation constitute an excellent tool to isolate and characterize specific microbial populations.

Abstract
PURPOSE Retrospective analysis of six patients with intracranial germinoma treated in INO and a literature review. MATERIALS AND METHODS Six patients were treated from 1993 to 1998, for histologically verified primary intracranial germinoma. Median age was 18 years (range: 14-26 years). All patients received chemo-radiotherapy (4FP + radiotherapy from 30 to 50 Gy). RESULTS 4 tumours were in complete remission. Two patients have kept non-evolutive residual cyst. Five patients are alive with non-evolutive disease after 15-40 months of follow-up (average: 27 months). One patient was lost to follow-up, 14 months after treatment, without disease. CONCLUSION The treatment of intracranial germinoma is currently first line chemotherapy followed by low-dose and limited irradiation.

Abstract
Hodgkin disease intracranial lesions are uncommon. We report the case of a 24-year-old man who presented with an intracranial relapse without other evidence of disease 24 months after multiple drug therapy and extended field radiation therapy for stage III Bb type 3 Hodgkin disease. The patient was treated by whole brain irradiation (40 Gy/20 fractions/4 weeks). Six months after completion of therapy, the patient had a second relapse, with bilateral inguinal metastatic nodes, which were treated by a second line polychemotherapy. The patient was free of disease 9 months later.

Abstract
The aim of this study, using a Fleming single-stage design, was to explore the efficacy and safety of Taxotere 100 x mg x m(-2) docetaxel and FEC 75 cyclophosphamide 500 mg x m(-2), fluorouracil 500 x mg x m(-2) and epirubicin 75 mg x m(-2), in alternating and sequential schedules for the first-line treatment of metastatic breast cancer. One hundred and thirty-six women were randomly allocated, to one of three treatment regimens: DTX 100 plus FEC 75, alternated for eight courses (ALT); four courses of DTX 100 followed by four courses of FEC 75 (SEQ T); or four courses of FEC 75 followed by four courses of DTX 100 (SEQ F). One hundred and thirty-one women were evaluable for tumour response. Although the treatment outcome was equivalent in the two sequential arms and the alternating regimen (P=0.110, not significant), the response rate was less encouraging in the SEQ F arm (52.3%) than in the other two arms (71.1% for ALT and 70.5% for SEQ T), in which docetaxel was administered first. Time to progression was similar in the ALT, SEQ T and SEQ F arms (9.5, 9.3 and 10.4 months respectively). Grade 3-4 neutropenia was observed in nearly all patients; febrile neutropenia occurred in 9% (ALT), 16% (SEQ T) and 2% (SEQ F) of patients. Few patients (< or =9%) developed grade 3-4 non-haematological toxicities. Relative dose intensity was 97-99% for all regimens. All treatment regimens were active and well tolerated.

Abstract
This is a case report of a 57-year-old man who had primary angiosarcoma of the left breast. Five months after detecting a mass in his breast, he underwent mastectomy with biopsy of the ipsilateral axillary lymph nodes. Three years later, he is still alive without any recurrence. Angiosarcoma of the female breast is rare and exceptional in males. It is a condition with a poor prognosis and there are as yet no established chemotherapeutic regimens.

Abstract
Because the outcome of patients with primary ovarian non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is controversial, we present the incidental finding of a primary malignant lymphoma of the ovary in a 50-year-old patient. Three and a half years following ablative surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy, the patient is alive and disease free. Ovarian lymphoma is a disease of reportedly poor prognosis. However, many previously reported cases of ovarian lymphoma actually represented ovarian involvement by a more diffuse lymphomatous process. If stringent criteria are used for case selection, true primary ovarian lymphoma is a very rare disease and usually carries a favorable prognosis.

Abstract
The culture of transgenic Lotus corniculatus plants producing opines, which are bacterial growth substrates, leads to the selection of rhizospheric bacteria able to utilize these substrates. We have investigated the fate of the opine-utilizing community over time under different experimental conditions following elimination of selective pressure exerted by the transgenic plants. These plants were removed from the soil, which was either left unplanted or replanted with wild-type L. corniculatus or wheat plants. The density of opine-utilizing bacteria in the fallow soils remained essentially unchanged throughout the experiment, regardless of the soil of origin (soil planted with wild-type or transgenic plants). When wild-type Lotus plants were used to replace their transgenic counterparts, only the bacterial populations able to utilize the opines were affected. Long-term changes affecting the opine-utilizing bacterial community on Lotus roots was dependent upon the opine studied. The concentration of nopaline utilizers decreased, upon replacement of the transgenic plants, to a level similar to that of normal plants, while the concentration of mannopine utilizers decreased to levels intermediate between transgenic and normal plants. These data indicate that: (i) the opine-utilizing bacterial populations can be controlled in the rhizosphere via plant-exudate engineering; (ii) the interaction between the engineered plants and their root-associated micro-organisms is transgene specific; and (iii) alterations induced by the cultivation of transgenic plants may sometimes be persistent. Furthermore, opine-utilizing bacterial populations can be controlled by crop rotation. Therefore, favouring the growth of a rhizobacterium of agronomic interest via an opine-based strategy appears feasible.

Abstract
Rabbit polyclonal antibodies against isoproterenol-induced mouse proline-rich proteins (PRPs) were used to localize PRPs in the parotid salivary glands of normal adult BALB/c mice. The antibodies recognized both acidic-type and basic-type PRPs. Immunoblotting experiments revealed that the glands contained an acidic-type and a basic-type PRP. Parotid gland tissue was fixed with Karnosky's fixative and embedded in Lowicryl resin at low temperature. PRPs were localized at the electron microscope level using an indirect post-embedding staining technique with protein A-gold. The secretion granules of the acinar cells were strongly labelled. Pre-absorption of the antibody with purified acidic-type and basic-type PRPs indicated that the basic-type PRP is mainly located at the periphery of the granules but that the acidic-type PRP is more evenly distributed within the granules. Pre-absorption of the antibody with alpha-amylase did not affect the staining pattern, suggesting minimal cross-reactivity. PRPs were also detected within the rough endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus of acinar cells, within the granules of the proacinar cells and in the lumena of the ducts, but not within the intercalated or striated duct cell granules.
