Abstract
Aging, often considered a result of random cellular damage, can be accurately estimated using DNA methylation profiles, the foundation of pan-tissue epigenetic clocks. Here, we demonstrate the development of universal pan-mammalian clocks, using 11,754 methylation arrays from our Mammalian Methylation Consortium, which encompass 59 tissue types across 185 mammalian species. These predictive models estimate mammalian tissue age with high accuracy (r > 0.96). Age deviations correlate with human mortality risk, mouse somatotropic axis mutations and caloric restriction. We identified specific cytosines with methylation levels that change with age across numerous species. These sites, highly enriched in polycomb repressive complex 2-binding locations, are near genes implicated in mammalian development, cancer, obesity and longevity. Our findings offer new evidence suggesting that aging is evolutionarily conserved and intertwined with developmental processes across all mammals.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Healthy breast tissue appears older than matched peripheral blood, when using a biologic aging measurement based on DNA methylation markers. The underlying cause of this acceleration is not known. We hypothesize that cumulative estrogen exposure is associated with accelerated breast epigenetic aging. In this study, we examined factors associated with breast epigenetic age in a healthy population of women.
Methods: We used breast tissue samples from 232 healthy women donors (119 pre-menopausal, 113 post-menopausal) to the Komen Tissue Bank, with data available on variables related to cumulative estrogen exposure, including age at menarche, gravidity, parity, and menopausal status. DNA methylation experiments were performed using the Illumina EPIC 850K array platform. DNA methylation age (DNAm age) was calculated using the epigenetic clock methods developed by Horvath (2013). Total years of estrogen exposure was calculated as the difference between age at menopause (or current age) - number of live births x 9 months – number of miscarriages x 3 months. Nonparametric group testing was used to compare mean levels of the difference between DNAm age and chronologic age for pre- and post-menopausal groups. We examined the outcome “age acceleration”, calculated using the residuals of the regression of DNAm age versus chronologic age, because it is age-adjusted and independent of cell distribution. Multivariate linear regression models were used to examine for associations between age acceleration and each of our covariates.
Results: Our sample included women aged 19-90 years (mean age 50.7, SD 11.8), with 114 nulliparous women. We confirmed that DNAm age in breast tissue is strongly correlated with chronologic age (ρ=0.89, p<0.0001). The difference between DNAm age and chronologic age is greater at earlier ages, and is significantly greater in premenopausal women (mean 8.9 years, SE 0.04), compared with postmenopausal women (mean 2.7 years, SE 0.05) (p<0.0001). Age acceleration was significantly associated with earlier age at menarche (β=-0.395 for each year, p=0.036). For women with limited total years of exposure to estrogen (<19 years), there was a significant association between age acceleration and total estrogen exposure and β=0.673 for each year, p=0.028).
Conclusion: Acceleration of epigenetic age in breast tissues occurs in healthy women and is most pronounced in the pre-menopausal period. Earlier age at menarche and total years of estrogen exposure are associated with higher degree of acceleration, suggesting that cumulative estrogen exposure drives this process.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Increasing evidence suggests that epigenetic mechanisms play critical roles in the development of breast cancer. However, precise DNA methylation signatures associated with breast cancer susceptibility remain unknown. We sought to compare DNA methylation changes in the normal breast tissue of women with and without breast cancer to identify patterns of aberrant DNA methylation in women with breast cancer.
METHODS:Samples of normal breast tissue were collected from four cohorts of women: age < 50 years with and without breast cancer, and age ≥50 years with and without breast cancer. Normal breast tissue from healthy women was obtained from the Komen Tissue Bank at IU Simon Cancer Center and from women presenting for reduction mammoplasty at Yale New Haven Hospital. Normal breast tissue from women with breast cancer was obtained from patients undergoing adjuvant total mastectomy at Yale Breast Center. DNA was extracted using Qiagen AllPrep Universal kit. Raw data files in idat format were imported to Partek Genomics Suite 6.6 for normalization and differential methylation analysis. Raw intensities were normalized using With Array Normalization (SWAN) method. Principal component analysis (PCA) were performed as quality control. Differentially methylated loci (DML) between control and breast cancer groups were detected when False discovery rate (FDR) < 0.05 and fold change > 1.5. Functional enrichment analysis of genes with DML in the gene body were conducted using METACORE™. Pathways with FDR < 0.05 were selected.
RESULTS: Ninety-three normal breast tissue samples from 89 subjects were analyzed (breast cancer=40, unaffected=53). Comparison of DNA methylation patterns between women with and without breast cancer revealed 200 DMLs. The majority of DMLs (186) were hyper-methylated in breast cancer patients, and 48 DMLs locate in enhancers of genes. 170 DMLs locate in 134 genes, enriched in two pathways: (1) Cell adhesion_Endothelial cell contacts by junctional mechanisms, and (2) Neurophysiological process_Constitutive and regulated NMDA receptor trafficking. Genes associated with cell adhesion and cell contacts included: ACTN2, GJA4, GJA7 and MAGI1. Two hyper-methylated loci were found in enhancers of ACTN2. In addition, one hyper-methylated locus in GJA4, one hyper-methylated and one hypo-methylated loci in GJA7, and two hyper-methylated loci in MAGI1 were detected in breast cancer patients. Genes associated with NMDA receptor trafficking include: TPK1, ADCY4 and LIN7C. One and two loci were found in TPK1 and ADCY4, respectively, that were hyper-methylated in normal breast tissue from cancer patients in the gene body, while a hypo-methylated locus in breast cancer patients was identified in LIN7C.
CONCLUSIONS: Comparison of DNA methylation patterns of normal breast tissue from women with and without breast cancer reveal specific mechanistic pathways and genes that are differentially methylated in women with breast cancer. DNA methylation of normal breast tissue deserves further study as a potential biomarker for breast cancer risk stratification and may lend new insight into mechanisms of breast cancer development.

Abstract
This paper describes an algorithm for generating a planar image that when tilted provides stereo cues to slant, without contamination from pictorial gradients. As the stimuli derived from this image are ultimately intended for use in studies of slant perception under magnification, a further requirement is that the generated image be suitable for high-definition printing or display on a monitor. A first stage generates an image consisting of overlapping edges with sufficient density that when zoomed, edges that nearly span the original scale are replaced with newly emergent content that leaves the visible edge statistics unchanged. A second stage reduces intensity clumping while preserving edges by enforcing a broad dynamic range across the image. Spectral analyses demonstrate that the low-frequency content of the resulting image, which would correspond to the pictorial cue of texture gradient changes under slant, (a) has a power fall-off deviating from 1/f noise (to which the visual system is particularly sensitive), and (b) does not offer systematic cues under changes in scale or slant. Two behavioral experiments tested whether the algorithm generates stimuli that offer cues to slant under stereo viewing only, and not when disparities are eliminated. With a particular adjustment of dynamic range (and nearly so with the other version that was tested), participants viewing without stereo cues were essentially unable to discriminate slanted from flat (frontal) stimuli, and when slant was reported, they failed to discriminate its direction. In contrast, non-stereo viewing of a control stimulus with pictorial cues, as well as stereoscopic observation, consistently allowed participants to perceive slant correctly. Experiment 2 further showed that these results generalized across a population of different stimuli from the same generation process and demonstrated that the process did not substitute biased slant cues.

Abstract
The blood-brain barrier separates circulating blood from the central nervous system (CNS). The scope of this barrier is not fully understood which limits our ability to relate biological measurements from peripheral to central phenotypes. For example, it is unknown to what extent gene expression levels in peripheral blood are reflective of CNS metabolism. In this study, we examine links between central monoamine metabolite levels and whole-blood gene expression to better understand the connection between peripheral systems and the CNS. To that end, we correlated the prime monoamine metabolites in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) with whole-genome gene expression microarray data from blood (N=240 human subjects). We additionally applied gene-enrichment analysis and weighted gene co-expression network analyses (WGCNA) to identify modules of co-expressed genes in blood that may be involved with monoamine metabolite levels in CSF. Transcript levels of two genes were significantly associated with CSF serotonin metabolite levels after Bonferroni correction for multiple testing: THAP7 (P=2.8 × 10-8, β=0.08) and DDX6 (P=2.9 × 10-7, β=0.07). Differentially expressed genes were significantly enriched for genes expressed in the brain tissue (P=6.0 × 10-52). WGCNA revealed significant correlations between serotonin metabolism and hub genes with known functions in serotonin metabolism, for example, HTR2A and COMT. We conclude that gene expression levels in whole blood are associated with monoamine metabolite levels in the human CSF. Our results, including the strong enrichment of brain-expressed genes, illustrate that gene expression profiles in peripheral blood can be relevant for quantitative metabolic phenotypes in the CNS.

Abstract
Early hepatic allograft dysfunction (EAD) manifests posttransplantation with high serum transaminases, persistent cholestasis, and coagulopathy. The biological mechanisms are poorly understood. This study investigates the molecular mechanisms involved in EAD and defines a gene expression signature revealing different biological pathways in subjects with EAD from those without EAD, a potential first step in developing a molecular classifier as a potential clinical diagnostic. Global gene expression profiles of 30 liver transplant recipients of deceased donor grafts with EAD and 26 recipients without graft dysfunction were investigated using microarrays of liver biopsies performed at the end of cold storage and after graft reperfusion prior to closure. Results reveal a shift in inflammatory and metabolic responses between the two time points and differences between EAD and non-EAD. We identified relevant pathways (PPARα and NF-κB) and targets (such as CXCL1, IL1, TRAF6, TIPARP, and TNFRSF1B) associated with the phenotype of EAD. Preliminary proof of concept gene expression classifiers that distinguish EAD from non-EAD patients, with Area Under the Curve (AUC) >0.80 were also identified. This data may have mechanistic and diagnostic implications for EAD.

Abstract
There are no minimally invasive diagnostic metrics for acute kidney transplant rejection (AR), especially in the setting of the common confounding diagnosis, acute dysfunction with no rejection (ADNR). Thus, though kidney transplant biopsies remain the gold standard, they are invasive, have substantial risks, sampling error issues and significant costs and are not suitable for serial monitoring. Global gene expression profiles of 148 peripheral blood samples from transplant patients with excellent function and normal histology (TX; n = 46), AR (n = 63) and ADNR (n = 39), from two independent cohorts were analyzed with DNA microarrays. We applied a new normalization tool, frozen robust multi-array analysis, particularly suitable for clinical diagnostics, multiple prediction tools to discover, refine and validate robust molecular classifiers and we tested a novel one-by-one analysis strategy to model the real clinical application of this test. Multiple three-way classifier tools identified 200 highest value probesets with sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and area under the curve for the validation cohort ranging from 82% to 100%, 76% to 95%, 76% to 95%, 79% to 100%, 84% to 100% and 0.817 to 0.968, respectively. We conclude that peripheral blood gene expression profiling can be used as a minimally invasive tool to accurately reveal TX, AR and ADNR in the setting of acute kidney transplant dysfunction.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate whether computer-aided detection (CAD) as a second reader using perspective filet view [three-dimensional (3D) filet] improves the performance of inexperienced readers at computed tomography colonography (CTC) compared with unassisted 3D filet and unassisted two-dimensional (2D) CTC. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty symptomatic patients underwent CTC and same-day colonoscopy with segmental unblinding. Two inexperienced readers read the CTC studies on 3D filet and 2D several weeks apart. Four months later, readers re-read the cases only evaluating CAD marks using 3D filet. Suspicious CAD marks not previously described on 3D filet were recorded. Jackknife free-response receiver operating characteristic (JAFROC-1) analysis was used to compare the observers' performances in detecting lesions with 3D filet, 2D and 3D filet with CAD. RESULTS One hundred and three lesions > or =3mm were detected at colonoscopy with segmental unblinding. CAD alone had a sensitivity of 73% (75/103) at a mean false-positive rate per patient of 12.8 in supine and 11.4 in prone. For inexperienced readers sensitivities with 3D filet with CAD were 58% (60/103) and 48% (50/103) with an improvement of 14-16 percentage points (p<0.05) compared with 2D and of 10-11 percentage points (p<0.05) compared with 3D filet. For inexperienced readers, the false-positive rate was 25-41% and 71-200% higher with 3D filet with CAD compared with 3D filet and 2D, respectively. JAFROC-1 analysis showed no significant differences in per-lesion overall performance among reading modes (p=0.8). CONCLUSION CAD applied as a second reader using 3D filet increased both sensitivity and the number of false positives by inexperienced readers compared with 3D filet and 2D, thus not improving overall performance, i.e., the ability to distinguish between lesions and non-lesions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND "Perspective-filet view" is a novel three-dimensional (3D) viewing technique for computed tomography colonography (CTC). Studies with experienced readers have shown a sensitivity for perspective-filet view similar to that of 2D or 3D endoluminal fly-through in detection of colorectal lesions. It is not known whether perspective-filet view, compared to axial images, improves lesion detection by inexperienced readers. PURPOSE To compare primary 3D analysis using perspective-filet view (3D Filet) with primary 2D analysis, as used by inexperienced CTC readers. Secondary aims were to compare lesion detection by 3D Filet when used by experienced and inexperienced readers, and to evaluate the effect of combined 3D Filet + 2D analysis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty symptomatic patients were prospectively enrolled. An experienced reader performed 3D Filet analysis followed by complete 2D analysis (3D Filet + 2D), before colonoscopy with segmental unblinding. Two inexperienced readers (readers 2 and 3), blinded to CTC and colonoscopy findings, retrospectively performed 3D Filet analysis and, after 5 weeks, 2D analysis. True positives >or=6 mm detected by the inexperienced readers with 3D Filet and/or 2D were combined to obtain 3D Filet + 2D. RESULTS Colonoscopy revealed 116 lesions: 16 lesions >or=10 mm, 19 lesions 6-9 mm, and 81 lesions <or=5 mm. For the experienced reader, sensitivities for lesions >or=6 mm with 3D Filet and 3D Filet + 2D were 77% and 83%, respectively. For the inexperienced readers, sensitivities for lesions >or=6 mm with 3D Filet and 2D were 51% and 57% (reader 2) and 40% and 43% (reader 3), respectively. There was no significant difference between 3D Filet and 2D regarding sensitivity and reading time. For lesions >or=6 mm, 3D Filet + 2D improved the sensitivity of reader 2 to 63% and of reader 3 to 51%. CONCLUSION Lesion detection by inexperienced readers using perspective-filet view is comparable to that obtained by 2D. Lesion detection improves by combining 3D Filet + 2D, but not to the level of an experienced reader.

Abstract
PTEN is an important tumor-suppressor gene associated with many cancers. Through expression profiling of glioblastoma tissue samples and prostate cancer xenografts, we identified a molecular signature for loss of the PTEN tumor suppressor in glioblastoma and prostate tumors. The PTEN signature consists of a minimum of nine genes, several of which are involved in various pathways already implicated in tumor formation. Among these signature genes, the most significant was an increase in insulin growth factor-binding protein 2 (IGFBP-2) mRNA. Up-regulation of IGFBP-2 was confirmed at the protein level by Western blot analysis and validated in samples not included in the microarray analysis. The link between IGFBP-2 and PTEN was of particular interest because elevated serum IGFBP-2 levels have been reported in patients with prostate and brain tumors. To further investigate this link, we determined that IGFBP-2 expression is negatively regulated by PTEN and positively regulated by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and Akt activation. In addition, Akt-driven transformation is impaired in IGFBP2(-/-) mouse embryo fibroblasts, implicating a functional role for IGFBP-2 in PTEN signaling. Collectively, these studies establish that PTEN and IGFBP-2 expression are inversely correlated in human brain and prostate cancers and implicate serum IGFBP-2 levels as a potential serum biomarker of PTEN status and PI3K Akt pathway activation in cancer patients.

Abstract
The anatomical connections of the anterior lobe of the cerebellum with the reticular formation in the brainstem, upper motor neurons and the limbic system, as well as the results of experimental and clinical observations indicate that this region is a proper area for modulation of certain types of central motor disorders but also of limbic functions. Through a direct stereotacticaly suboccipital approach electrodes were introduced into the anterior lobe of the cerebellum in four patients (3 females and one male, 24, 29, 45 and 19 years old, respectively) suffering from cerebral palsy and being confined to a wheelchair with severe spastic choreoathetoid movements, with minimal hand function, but in good mental state. After a period of test stimulation (up to 10 days), the pulse generators were implanted and chronic high-frequency stimulation was applied (for 37, 58, 9 and 32 months, respectively). In agreement with our previous experience (transtentorial approach in 30 patients), noticeable improvements in spasticity were immediate and a gradual reduction in choreoatetoid movements was observed in the following days to weeks. Improvements in speech, swallowing, respiration, posture, ambulation, and mood states were combined with development of new motor skills. Caution with the proper positioning of the electrode in the target and the selection of optimal program for stimulation are of paramount importance.

Abstract
Glioblastoma is the most common primary malignant brain tumor of adults and one of the most lethal of all cancers. Patients with this disease have a median survival of 15 months from the time of diagnosis despite surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. New treatment approaches are needed. Recent works suggest that glioblastoma patients may benefit from molecularly targeted therapies. Here, we address the compelling need for identification of new molecular targets. Leveraging global gene expression data from two independent sets of clinical tumor samples (n = 55 and n = 65), we identify a gene coexpression module in glioblastoma that is also present in breast cancer and significantly overlaps with the "metasignature" for undifferentiated cancer. Studies in an isogenic model system demonstrate that this module is downstream of the mutant epidermal growth factor receptor, EGFRvIII, and that it can be inhibited by the epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor Erlotinib. We identify ASPM (abnormal spindle-like microcephaly associated) as a key gene within this module and demonstrate its overexpression in glioblastoma relative to normal brain (or body tissues). Finally, we show that ASPM inhibition by siRNA-mediated knockdown inhibits tumor cell proliferation and neural stem cell proliferation, supporting ASPM as a potential molecular target in glioblastoma. Our weighted gene coexpression network analysis provides a blueprint for leveraging genomic data to identify key control networks and molecular targets for glioblastoma, and the principle eluted from our work can be applied to other cancers.

Abstract
Genes display a wide range of replication times in S phase. In general, late replication is associated with transcriptionally repressive states and early replication with transcriptional competence. Rare examples of early-replicating repressive states have also been identified that are consistent with molecular evidence that repressive states are not all uniform in nature. Here we show that the replication times of over 4000 Drosophila genes correlate with the abundance of repetitive sequences in approximately 200-kb regions flanking the genes. In particular, Satellite-Related sequences (SRs) and the simple sequence repeats (SSRs) (CA)n and (ACTG)n were increasingly abundant in the regions flanking progressively later replicating genes, while (CATA)n repeats were more abundant around earlier replicating genes. These four sequences comprise less than 0.5% of the 'euchromatic genome' in Drosophila, yet they account for 5% of the variation of gene replication timing. Although the effect is not strong, it is broad: 99% of the genome is within the region of correlation of at least one of the above repeats. The role of SSRs and non-centromeric SRs in the genome is not known. We propose that SSRs and SRs foster transcriptionally repressive states throughout the genome in order to minimize spurious transcription.

Abstract
The direct stereotactic suboccipital approach to the anterior lobe of the cerebellum was applied for deep high-frequency stimulation in three patients (for 29, 8 and 3 months) suffering from cerebral palsy. In agreement with our previous experience with a transtentorial approach in 30 patients, spasticity, dyskinesias and behavior were improved during chronic intermittent stimulation (frequency 185 Hz, pulse width 210 micros, voltage individually altered according to motor response at 0.5-4.0 V, 15 min on, 2-6 h off). Patients attained useful motor skill improvements. The results indicate that the method is safe, effective and reasonable.

Abstract
We apply different family-based association test (FBAT) statistics for age of onset traits to the Genetics Analysis Workshop 12, problem 2 data. To evaluate different FBAT statistics we used the software package FBAT, which allows one to evaluate any test statistic that can be expressed as the sum of products between an arbitrary function of an offspring's genotype with an arbitrary function of the offspring's phenotype even if there are missing parental information. For single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in gene 1, our age-of-onset FBAT test based on the exponential model is significantly more powerful than the test by Mokliatchouk et al. [Hum Hered 51:46-53, 2000], which is based on the Cox model. We suggest incorporating covariates into FBAT statistics by replacing the trait values by their regression residuals. For the age of onset trait statistics we find that deviance residuals have much more power than "plain" martingale residuals. We discuss why for SNPs in gene 1, the usual affectation status trait, which underlies the transmission disequilibrium test (TDT), has higher power than the age-of-onset trait. We find only weak evidence (p = 0.0002) that marker D06G032 is associated with the affectation status.

Abstract
A number of investigators have proposed regression methods for testing linkage between a phenotypic trait and a genetic marker with sib-pair observations. Xu et al. [Am J Hum Genet 67:1025-8, 2000] studied a unified method for testing linkage, which tends to be more powerful than existing procedures. Often there are multiple traits, which are linked to a common set of genetic markers. In this paper, we present a simple generalization of the unified test to combine information from multiple traits optimally. We use the simulated Genetic Analysis Workshop 12 data to illustrate this methodology and show the advantage of using the combined tests over the single-trait tests. For the four quantitative traits (Q1,...,Q4) studied, our linkage results suggest that major loci affecting Q1 and Q2 localize at or near markers D02G172, D19G032, and D09G122, while loci affecting Q3 and Q4 localize at or near markers D09G122 and D17G051.

Abstract
We used variance components analysis to investigate the underlying determinants of the quantitative phenotypes (Q1-Q5) and their interrelationships in replicate 42 of the Genetic Analysis Workshop 12 simulated general population. Variance components models were fitted using Gibbs sampling in WinBUGS v1.3. Sigma-squared-A-random-effects (SSARs) were estimated for each phenotype, and were used as derived phenotypes in subsequent linkage analyses. Whole-genome, multipoint linkage analyses were based upon a new Haseman-Elston identity-by descent sib-pair method that takes a weighted combination of the trait-sum and trait-difference. The five quantitative traits simulated were closely correlated with each other and with affection status. The whole-genome screen of quantitative traits associated with the simulated complex disease suggested that one or more major loci regulating Q1 localizes to chromosome 2p and that one or more major loci regulating Q5 may localize to chromosome 1p.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To test whether nitric oxide (NO) enhances the cytotoxicity of cisplatin in a head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell line. BACKGROUND Cisplatin is one of the most frequently used chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of HNSCC. NO has been shown to play an important role in regulating tumor growth. Previous studies demonstrate that NO can enhance the cytotoxicity of cisplatin in Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts. In this report, we examined the in vitro interaction of NO and cisplatin in a HNSCC cell line. MATERIALS AND METHODS CCL23 cells were pretreated with three different NO donors: PAPA/NO (t 1/2 = 15 min), DPTA/NO (t 1/2 = 3 h), and DETA/NO (t 1/2 = 20 h). The cells were rinsed and exposed for 6 hours to a culture medium containing cisplatin. Cell survival and LD50 of cisplatin were calculated with and without NO pretreatment. RESULTS PAPA/NO and DPTA/NO did not show any cytotoxic activity and did not change the LD50 of cisplatin. DETA/NO when used alone resulted in 25.6% cell death at its peak dose (100 microM). Pretreatment with DETA/NO resulted in almost a threefold reduction of the LD50 of cisplatin (6.8 vs. 2.4 microg/mL). Pretreatment with DETA/NO sensitized the HNSCC cells to subsequent cisplatin activity (two-sided P =.00016). CONCLUSION Pretreatment of HNSCC cells with long-acting NO donors enhances cisplatin activity. Short- and medium-acting NO donors do not exert a toxic effect and do not augment the activity of cisplatin. NO agonists should be considered in the future as a possible adjunct to cisplatin in the treatment of HNSCC. Further studies with animal models are necessary to further clarify this relationship.

Abstract
With possibly incomplete nuclear families, the family based association test (FBAT) method allows one to evaluate any test statistic that can be expressed as the sum of products (covariance) between an arbitrary function of an offspring's genotype with an arbitrary function of the offspring's phenotype. We derive expressions needed to calculate the mean and variance of these test statistics under the null hypothesis of no linkage. To give some guidance on using the FBAT method, we present three simple data analysis strategies for different phenotypes: dichotomous (affection status), quantitative and censored (eg, the age of onset). We illustrate the approach by applying it to candidate gene data of the NIMH Alzheimer Disease Initiative. We show that the RC-TDT is equivalent to a special case of the FBAT method. This result allows us to generalise the RC-TDT to dominant, recessive and multi-allelic marker codings. Simulations compare the resulting FBAT tests to the RC-TDT and the S-TDT. The FBAT software is freely available.

Abstract
KRN T cells can recognize two self MHC alleles with differing biological consequences. They respond to the foreign peptide RN(42--56) bound to I-A(k) or alternatively initiate autoimmune arthritis by interacting with a self Ag, GPI(282--294), on I-A(g7). Five surface amino acid differences between the two MHC molecules collectively alter which peptide side chains are recognized by the KRN TCR. In this study, it is shown that mutation of only two of these residues, alpha 65 and beta 78, in I-A(k) to their I-A(g7) counterparts is sufficient to allow recognition of the TCR contacts from GPI(282--294). To provide a detailed mechanism for the specificity change, the distinct contributions of each of these two mutations to the global effect on peptide specificity were analyzed. The alpha65 mutation is shown to broaden the spectrum of amino acids permissible at P8 of the peptide. In contrast, the beta 78 mutation alone blocks KRN TCR interaction with I-A(k) and requires the simultaneous presence of the alpha 65 mutation to preserve recognition. In the presence of the alpha 65 mutation, the beta 78 residue broadens peptide recognition at P3 and prevents recognition of the P8 L in RN(42--56), thus producing the observed specificity shift. These results localize the functionally relevant differences between the surfaces of two self-restricted MHC molecules to two residues that have counterbalanced positive and negative contributions to interaction with a single TCR. They highlight how subtle structural distinctions attributable to single amino acids can stand at the interface between foreign Ag responsiveness and pathogenic autoreactivity.

Abstract
To better understand TCR discrimination of multiple ligands, we have analyzed the crystal structures of two Hb peptide/I-E(k) complexes that differ by only a single amino acid substitution at the P6 anchor position within the peptide (E73D). Detailed comparison of multiple independently determined structures at 1.9 A resolution reveals that removal of a single buried methylene group can alter a critical portion of the TCR recognition surface. Significant variance was observed in the peptide P5-P8 main chain as well as a rotamer difference at LeuP8, approximately 10 A distal from the substitution. No significant variations were observed in the conformation of the two MHC class II molecules. The ligand alteration results in two peptide/MHC complexes that generate bulk T cell responses that are distinct and essentially nonoverlapping. For the Hb-specific T cell 3.L2, substitution reduces the potency of the ligand 1000-fold. Soluble 3.L2 TCR binds the two peptide/MHC complexes with similar affinity, although with faster kinetics. These results highlight the role of subtle variations in MHC Ag presentation on T cell activation and signaling.

Abstract
We describe a broad class of family-based association tests that are adjusted for admixture; use either dichotomous or measured phenotypes; accommodate phenotype-unknown subjects; use nuclear families, sibships or a combination of the two, permit multiple nuclear families from a single pedigree; incorporate di- or multi-allelic marker data; allow additive, dominant or recessive models; and permit adjustment for covariates and gene-by-environment interactions. The test statistic is basically the covariance between a user-specified function of the genotype and a user-specified function of the trait. The distribution of the statistic is computed using the appropriate conditional distribution of offspring genotypes that adjusts for admixture.

Abstract
From a global perspective, two external developments are having dramatic effects upon the field of statistical genetics: improved genetic data, for example, human DNA sequence, and new technologies, for example, microarray technology. Meiotic mapping techniques will have to be adapted to benefit from the improved data, for example, allelic association studies have to be extended to multiple markers to profit from the new genetic map of SNP markers. Changing technology has led to ever-increasing knowledge about gene function which has enabled novel gene mapping strategies which we refer to as functional mapping. Functional mapping has great potential for mapping complex disease genes since it uses pathway fractions to intermediate between genotype and phenotype information. Methods used in whole-genome gene expression studies are used to illustrate concepts of functional mapping.

Abstract
Idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) comprises a heterogeneous group of disorders, in which a high genetic predisposition and a complex mode of inheritance have been suggested. Recent identification of ion channel gene mutations in Mendelian epileptic disorders suggests genetically driven neuronal hyperexcitability as one important factor in epileptogenesis. Mutations in two neuronal voltage-gated potassium channel genes (KCNQ2 and KCNQ3) have already been shown to cause epilepsy (BFNC), and we now tested the hypothesis that genetic variation in the KCNQ3 gene confers liability to common IGE subtypes. Length variation of two intragenic polymorphic markers (D8S558 and D8S1835) were therefore assessed in 71 nuclear families ascertained for an affected child. However, the transmission-disequilibrium-test did not show significant differences between the transmitted and non-transmitted parental alleles. Thus, our findings do not provide evidence that genetic variation in the KCNQ3 gene exerts a relevant effect in the etiology of common IGE subtypes.

Abstract
Ribonucleotide reductase (RR) is the rate-limiting enzyme for the de novo synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides. Its activity is significantly increased in tumor cells related to the proliferation rate. Therefore, the enzyme is considered to be an excellent target for cancer chemotherapy. In the present study, we investigated whether the antineoplastic effects of trimidox (3,4, 5-trihydroxybenzamidoxime), a novel inhibitor of RR, were due to induction of apoptosis.HL-60 cells were incubated with various concentrations of trimidox. Consequently, cell morphology, DNA condensation, annexin binding, DNA fragmentation, and signature type cleavage of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase and gelsolin were determined. We also tested the involvement of CD95 and CD95 ligand in apoptosis induction. Furthermore, we examined the c-myc expression of HL-60 cells after incubation with trimidox in order to elucidate a possible association between c-myc expression and induction of apoptosis in the case of trimidox. Trimidox incubation caused a time-dependent increase of c-myc RNA expression and this was accompanied by the induction of apoptosis. Apoptosis was triggered independently of CD95 by the activation of caspases and PARP cleavage. We conclude that trimidox is able to induce programmed cell death. The induction of apoptosis was demonstrated by various biochemical and morphological methods and seems to be associated with the induction of c-myc. Apoptosis was induced by the activation of caspases and without change of the CD95 and CD95 ligand expression.

Abstract
KRN TCR transgenic T cells recognize two self-MHC molecules: a foreign peptide, bovine RNase 42-56, on I-Ak and an autoantigen, glucose-6-phosphate isomerase 282-294, on I-Ag7. Because the latter recognition event initiates a disease closely resembling human rheumatoid arthritis, we investigated the structural basis of this pathogenic TCR's dual specificity. While peptide recognition is altered to a minor degree between the MHC molecules, we show that the receptor's cross-reactivity critically depends upon a TCR contact residue completely conserved in the foreign and self peptides. Further, the altered recognition of peptide derives from discrete differences on the MHC recognition surfaces and not the disparate binding grooves. This work provides a detailed structural comparison of an autoreactive TCR's interactions with naturally occurring peptides on distinct MHC molecules. The capacity to interact with multiple self-MHCs in this manner increases the number of potentially pathogenic self-interactions available to a T cell.

Abstract
The sibship disequilibrium test (SDT) is designed to detect both linkage in the presence of association and association in the presence of linkage (linkage disequilibrium). The test does not require parental data but requires discordant sibships with at least one affected and one unaffected sibling. The SDT has many desirable properties: it uses all the siblings in the sibship; it remains valid if there are misclassifications of the affectation status; it does not detect spurious associations due to population stratification; asymptotically it has a chi2 distribution under the null hypothesis; and exact P values can be easily computed for a biallelic marker. We show how to extend the SDT to markers with multiple alleles and how to combine families with parents and data from discordant sibships. We discuss the power of the test by presenting sample-size calculations involving a complex disease model, and we present formulas for the asymptotic relative efficiency (which is approximately the ratio of sample sizes) between SDT and the transmission/disequilibrium test (TDT) for special family structures. For sib pairs, we compare the SDT to a test proposed both by Curtis and, independently, by Spielman and Ewens. We show that, for discordant sib pairs, the SDT has good power for testing linkage disequilibrium relative both to Curtis's tests and to the TDT using trios comprising an affected sib and its parents. With additional sibs, we show that the SDT can be more powerful than the TDT for testing linkage disequilibrium, especially for disease prevalence >.3.

Abstract
The high frequency of alloreactive T cells is a major hindrance for transplantation; however, the molecular basis for alloreactivity remains elusive. We examined the I-Ep alloreactivity of a well-characterized Hb(64-76)/I-Ek-specific murine T cell. Using a combinatorial peptide library approach, we identified a highly stimulatory alloepitope mimic and observed that the recognition of the central TCR contact residues (P3 and P5) was much more flexible than that seen with Hb(64-76)/I-Ek, but still specific. Therefore, alloreactive T cells can recognize a self-peptide/MHC surface; however, the allogeneic MHC molecule changes the recognition requirements for the central region of the peptide, allowing a more diverse repertoire of ligands to be recognized.
