Abstract
Ca2+-activated Cl- channels (CaCCs) perform a multitude of functions including the control of cell excitability, regulation of cell volume and ionic homeostasis, exocrine and endocrine secretion, fertilization, amplification of olfactory sensory function, and control of smooth muscle cell contractility. CaCCs are the translated products of two members (ANO1 and ANO2, also known as TMEM16A and TMEM16B) of the Anoctamin family of genes comprising ten paralogs. This review focuses on recent progress in understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in the regulation of ANO1 by cytoplasmic Ca2+, post-translational modifications, and how the channel protein interacts with membrane lipids and protein partners. After first reviewing the basic properties of native CaCCs, we then present a brief historical perspective highlighting controversies about their molecular identity in native cells. This is followed by a summary of the fundamental biophysical and structural properties of ANO1. We specifically address whether the channel is directly activated by internal Ca2+ or indirectly through the intervention of the Ca2+-binding protein Calmodulin (CaM), and the structural domains responsible for Ca2+- and voltage-dependent gating. We then review the regulation of ANO1 by internal ATP, Calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II-(CaMKII)-mediated phosphorylation and phosphatase activity, membrane lipids such as the phospholipid phosphatidyl-(4,5)-bisphosphate (PIP2), free fatty acids and cholesterol, and the cytoskeleton. The article ends with a survey of physical and functional interactions of ANO1 with other membrane proteins such as CLCA1/2, inositol trisphosphate and ryanodine receptors in the endoplasmic reticulum, several members of the TRP channel family, and the ancillary Κ+ channel β subunits KCNE1/5.

Abstract
The platypnea orthodeoxia syndrome (POS) is a rare condition characterized by dyspnea and hypoxia in upright position. Pathopysiologic underlying mechanisms are determined by an atrial right-to-left shunt. Coexisting conditions that evolve POS can be of anatomical nature causing interatrial communication or of functional nature producing a deformity of the atrial septum in upright position. Diagnosis is difficult, as it needs to mention about POS. Classically, transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography in supine and upright position with use of contrast medium and/or Doppler will point the diagnosis. Treatment is predominantly carried out by interventional closure of atrial septal defect that promptly resolves clinical symptoms.

Abstract
Purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of complete denture wearing on deglutition time (DT), hyoid bone and larynx movements in edentulous patients with real-time balanced turbo field echo cine-magnetic resonance imaging. Subjects were examined by cine-magnetic resonance imaging in supine position during swallowing water. Two sets of images for 23 edentulous (with/without wearing complete dentures) and one for 23 dentulous patients were obtained. Radiographic outputs representing three consecutive deglutition stages (oral, pharyngeal and oesophageal) were provided to perform measurements. Deglutition time significantly increased when edentulous patients wore their dentures (mean 0·75 s increased to 1·17 s), whereas dentulous patients' DT was about 0·91 s (P ≤ 0.05). The duration of deglutition is crucial because prolonged pharyngeal transit times increases the risk of aspiration. Within the limitations of the study, complete denture wearing could increase the shortened DT of the edentulous patients.

Abstract
Cardiac rhabdomyoma is frequently associated with tuberous sclerosis. However, very few cardiac malformations have been described with tuberous sclerosis. We report a rare case of coexistent cardiac tumor with mitral valve anomaly in a patient with tuberous sclerosis, who developed mitral regurgitation and required a surgical procedure with histological confirmation of cardiac rhabdomyoma.

Abstract
Investigation of swallowing is an important part of oral diagnosis. It usually plays a role in the aetiology of some orofacial deformities and open-bite as well as in the relapse of treated open-bite patients. In recent years, the movements of the anatomical structures that participate in deglutition have been investigated by several methods such as cineradiography, electromyography, electropalatography, electromagnetic articulography and ultrasonography. However, all these techniques have various disadvantages. Recently, dynamic magnetic resonance imaging has become available in the evaluation of swallowing function. In this study we intended to present this new technique to the dental literature and aimed to obtain dynamic images of the deglutition process. We also compared the timing of events in subjects with anterior open-bite and normal overbite during swallowing 10 mL water.

Abstract
Blood components such as oxyhemoglobin are believed to cause cerebral vasospasm by inducing contraction and cell death in cerebral arteries. We have observed previously that oxyhemoglobin produces apoptotic changes in cultured endothelial cells. This study was undertaken to explore if bilirubin, a bi-product of hemoglobin degradation, will produce similar cytotoxicity in endothelial cells. Cultured bovine brain microvascular endothelial cells were incubated in four concentrations of bilirubin (10, 25, 50, and 100 microM) for varying times (6, 12, and 24 h). Control cells were incubated in saline or vehicle (NaOH solution, <0.01% of 0.01 N) for similar time periods. The cultured cells were then observed microscopically for evidence of cellular alterations. Bilirubin (10-100 microM) produced apoptosis that appeared time-dependent but not clearly concentration-dependent. Biochemical markers for apoptosis such as DNA fragmentation and PARP cleavage were induced by bilirubin. We conclude that endothelial cells may undergo apoptosis after exposure to bilirubin.

Abstract
The expression of adhesion molecules in synovium in patients with Lyme arthritis is surely critical in the control of Borrelia burgdorferi infection but may also have pathologic consequences. For example, molecular mimicry between a dominant T-cell epitope of B. burgdorferi outer surface protein A and an adhesion molecule, human lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1), has been implicated in the pathogenesis of treatment-resistant Lyme arthritis. Using immunohistochemical methods, we examined synovial samples for expression of adhesion molecules in 29 patients with treatment-resistant Lyme arthritis and in 15 patients with rheumatoid arthritis or chronic inflammatory monoarthritis. In Lyme arthritis synovia, endothelial cells showed intense expression of P-selectin and vascular adhesion protein-1 (VAP-1). Expression of LFA-1 was also intense on infiltrating cells, particularly in lymphoid aggregates, and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) was markedly expressed on synovial lining and endothelial and infiltrating cells. Moderate expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) was seen on synovial lining and endothelial cells, and mild expression of its ligand, very late antigen-4, was apparent in perivascular lymphoid infiltrates. Except for lesser expression of VCAM-1 in Lyme synovia, the levels of expression of these adhesion molecules were similar in the three patient groups. We conclude that certain adhesion molecules, including ICAM-1 and LFA-1, are expressed intensely in the synovia of patients with Lyme arthritis. Upregulation of LFA-1 on lymphocytes in this lesion may be critical in the pathogenesis of treatment-resistant Lyme arthritis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the antimicrobial activity of silicone oil against endophthalmitis-causing agents in vitro. METHODS The antimicrobial activity of silicone oil was tested on Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans, and Aspergillus spp. The bacteria and fungi were separately inoculated into 1,300 centistokes silicone oil. Control inoculations were done in two different media: physiologic saline and brain-heart infusion (BHI) for bacteria and Sabouraud broth and physiologic saline for fungi. From each medium, 0.001-mL samples were taken and plated in Petri dishes. After overnight incubation, colony-forming units (CFUs) were enumerated. Culturing from the initially prepared specimens, incubating overnight, and counting CFUs was repeated until no growth of microorganisms was seen in the silicone oil-containing media. Macroscopic photography of the colonies and light microscopic photography of microorganisms were performed. RESULTS All the microorganisms showed an apparent decrease in CFUs, with elimination between 7 and 21 days in silicone oil. Colony-forming units of microorganisms remained stable in physiologic saline during the study, with the exception of gradual decrease in CFUs of S. aureus and S. epidermidis from the beginning of the third day. In BHI and Sabouraud broth, both bacteria and fungi showed a growth pattern that was compatible with the growth curve of microorganisms. CONCLUSION Silicone oil has an antimicrobial activity against S. aureus, S. epidermidis, P. aeruginosa, C. albicans, and Aspergillus spp., which are common endophthalmitis-causing agents.

Abstract
In an effort to implicate immune responses to specific Borrelia burgdorferi proteins that may have a role in chronic Lyme arthritis, we studied the natural history of the antibody response to B. burgdorferi in serial serum samples from 25 patients monitored throughout the course of Lyme disease. In these patients, the immunoglobulin G (IgM) and IgG antibody responses to 10 recombinant B. burgdorferi proteins, determined during early infection, early arthritis, and maximal arthritis, were correlated with the severity and duration of maximal arthritis. The earliest responses were usually to outer surface protein C (OspC), P35, P37, and P41; reactivity with OspE, OspF, P39, and P93 often developed weeks later; and months to years later, 64% of patients had responses to OspA and OspB. During early infection and early arthritis, the levels of IgG antibody to P35 correlated inversely with the subsequent severity or duration of maximal arthritis. In contrast, during periods of maximal arthritis, the levels of IgG antibody to OspA and OspB, especially to a C-terminal epitope of OspA, correlated directly with the severity and duration of arthritis. Thus, the higher the IgG antibody response to P35 earlier in the infection, the milder and briefer the subsequent arthritis, whereas during maximal arthritis, the higher the IgG response to OspA and OspB, the more severe and prolonged the arthritis.

Abstract
A theory of follicle selection (Lacker, 1981) is tested in the primate by simulating the effects of estradiol administration at different times, strengths, and durations during the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle (Clark et al., 1981; Zeleznik, 1981; Dierschke et al., 1985). The theory can account for the observed atretogenic effects of circulating estradiol on follicle development including full, partial, and delayed atresia of the dominant follicle (Dierschke et al., 1985) and can explain why similar estradiol doses achieve different qualitative effects when given at different times during the cycle. The theory predicts that recovery from early atresia may be possible, and it can also account for the loss of control in the number of maturing follicles that has been observed when estradiol antibodies are given in the midfollicular phase (Zeleznik et al., 1985). These results support the hypothesis that the selection mechanism in the primate is a consequence of feedback involving an essentially equipotent follicle population interacting through circulating estradiol and pituitary gonadotropins. A quantitative test of the theory awaits experimental identification of the maturation surfaces that are predicted by it. An experimental design for this purpose is proposed.

Abstract
A theory of follicle selection is developed in which all follicles, ovulatory and atretic, inherit the same developmental plan for responding to circulating concentrations of estradiol and gonadotropins. In the model, this plan is represented by a maturation surface that determines the rate of follicle growth as a function of follicle maturity and circulating hormone concentration. Examples of maturation surfaces are constructed for single and multiple spontaneous ovulators. When model follicles are activated from the reserve pool at random times, spontaneous and coordinated cycles of maturation develop in which the number of ovulatory follicles is controlled within a small and predictable range. For a given maturation surface, this range is nearly independent of the number of follicles in the interacting population, their activation times, and their initial maturities. The theory is therefore consistent with Lipschütz's Law of Follicular Constancy. The theory can account for certain statistical effects that occur with age on the timing of ovulation and the control of ovulation number. Maturation surfaces are also constructed that exhibit spontaneous transitions from cyclic to steady anovulatory behavior. The theory predicts an important regulatory role for atretic follicles in controlling both the timing of maturation and the number of follicles that reach ovulatory maturity.

Abstract
Competition between species has long been modeled by population dynamics based on total numbers of each species. Recently, the evolution of strategy frequencies has been used successfully for competition models between individuals. In this paper, we illustrate that these two views of competition are compatible. It is shown that the rate of intra and interspecific competitions between individuals largely determines the population dynamics. Competition models over a single common resource and predator-prey models are developed from this individual competition approach. In particular, the equilibrium strategies in a co-evolving predator-prey system are shown to be more stable than the predicted strategy cycling of standard evolutionary game theory.

Abstract
Six laboratories actively involved in water virology research participated in a methods evaluation study, conducted under the auspices of the American Society for Testing and Materials Committee on Viruses in the Aquatic Environment, Task Force on Drinking Water. Each participant was asked to examine the Viradel (virus adsorption-elution) method with cartridge-type Filterite filters for virus adsorption and organic flocculation and aluminum hydroxide-hydroextraction for reconcentration. Virus was adsorbed to filter media at pH 3.5 and eluted with either glycine buffer (pH 10.5) or beef extract-glycine (pHG 9.0). Considerable variation was noted in the quantity of virus recovered from four 100-liter samples of dechlorinated tapwater seeded with low (350 to 860 PFU) and high (1,837 to 4,689 PFU) doses of poliovirus type 1. To have a more uniform standard of comparison, all the test samples were reassayed in one laboratory, where titers were also determined for the virus seed. Test results of the Viradel-organic flocculation method indicated that the average percentage of virus recovery for low-input experiments was 66%, with a range of 8 to 20% in two laboratories, 49 to 63% in three laboratories, and 198% in one laboratory. For the high-input experiments, two laboratories reported recoveries of 6 to 12%, and four laboratories reported recoveries of 26 to 46%. For the Viradel aluminum hydroxide-hydroextraction procedure, two laboratories recovered 9 to 11%, whereas four obtained 17 to 34% for low-input experiments. For the high-input tests, two laboratories reported a recovery of 3 to 5%, and four recovered 11 to 18% of the seeded virus.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
