Abstract
Interferon Regulatory Factor (IRF) 6, a member of the IRF family, is essential for epidermal and orofacial embryonic development. Irf6 is strongly expressed in keratinocytes, in which it regulates epidermal proliferation, differentiation, and migration. A recent role for Irf6 in Toll-like receptor 2-dependent chemokine gene expression was also reported in an epithelial cell line. However, a function for Irf6 in innate immune cells was not previously reported. In the present study, we investigated the expression and function of Irf6 in bone marrow-derived neutrophils and macrophages. We show here, using a conditional knockout of Irf6 in lysosymeM expressing cells, that Irf6 is required for resistance to LPS-induced endotoxic shock. In addition, Irf6-deficient bone marrow-derived neutrophils exhibited increased chemotactic index and velocity compared with wild-type cells in vitro. TLR4-specific KC and IL6 secretions were upregulated in Irf6-deficient bone marrow-derived macrophages in vitro. These cells also exhibited an increased level of phosphorylated IkBa. Collectively, our findings suggest a role for Irf6 in the resistance to endotoxic shock due to NFk-B-mediated alteration of cytokine production.

Abstract
Neither the prevalence of atopic dermatitis (AD) in children nor the magnitude of risk factors such as socioeconomic status or environmental pollution are well known in Germany. In cooperation with the public health service, we therefore carried out a cross-sectional study during a 1992 preschool examination in Hannover covering 4,219 children. Lifetime prevalence of atopic dermatitis was 10.5%; the range for prevalence in 49 districts of Hannover was 2.8-25.0%. The AD prevalence differed significantly between German and non-German children (12.4 vs. 2.1%) and among children from families of different socio-economic status (6.5% low; 18.1% high). Statistically significant associations between AD risk and social variables (family structure, nationality, socio-economic status, occupation) and the lack of definite associations with environmental factors support the hypothesis that life style may be an important risk factor for atopic dermatitis.

Abstract
A series of 38 experiments were performed in five conscious goats at air temperatures of +20 degrees C or +30 degrees C to see whether a temperature dependence of spinal cord signal transmission affects the relationships between body temperature and metabolic rate (MR) or respiratory evaporative heat loss (REHL). Prior to the experiments the animals received peridural thermodes to clamp the spinal cord temperature by perfusion temperatures of 31 degrees C, 38 degrees C or 43 degrees C (45 degrees C), carotid loops to clamp the brain temperature at 39 degrees C or 39.5 degrees C, and arteriovenous shunts to alter the trunk temperature and to determine thresholds and slopes of MR and REHL over trunk temperature. The trunk temperature thresholds, at which MR and REHL increased, were inversely related to the spinal cord temperature, thereby confirming previous observations on the generation of specific spinal temperature signals. The slopes at which MR rose below the threshold, increased with decreasing spinal cord temperature. The slopes of REHL over trunk temperature were independent of spinal cord temperature. Both observations are at variance with previously observed temperature effects on hypothalamic signal transmission and imply that temperature-dependent signal transmission at the spinal level cannot account for nonlinear interaction of various body temperatures in the control of MR and REHL.

Abstract
Radiologic pathologic correlation of lung specimens requires a gas content identical to intravital conditions. Methods of air drying and formalin steam fixation are well known but time consuming. A new, rapid method is presented: the lungs are inflated with compressed air, frozen in liquid nitrogen, and cut into slices. Radiographs taken with soft tissue technique demonstrate structural details down to 200-300 mu. The excellent state of preservation also permits excellent quality of microscopic slides.

Abstract
Medico-legal and criminological examinations of 93 sexual crimes are reported. This figure comprises all the crimes which have become known to the police during a certain period in one region. It is suggested that the medical examination by confined to specific wards of the gynecological hospital so that psychological care can be provided and the customary criminological investigation methods be changed. For preventive reasons, a general expertise of the offenders and credibility examinations of victims and offenders seem to be called for in the absence of satisfactory evidence. Physical resistance on the part of the victim in the present cases led to a significant increase in the injury and death rate. How far traditional social views toward women favor sexual crime is discussed.
