Abstract
BACKGROUND Understanding and improving obstetrical quality and safety is an important goal of professional societies, and many interventions such as checklists, safety bundles, educational interventions, or other culture changes have been implemented to improve the quality of care provided to obstetrical patients. Although many factors contribute to delivery decisions, a reduced workload has addressed how provider issues such as fatigue or behaviors surrounding impending shift changes may influence the delivery mode and outcomes. OBJECTIVE The objective was to assess whether intrapartum obstetrical interventions and adverse outcomes differ based on the temporal proximity of the delivery to the attending's shift change. STUDY DESIGN This was a secondary analysis from a multicenter obstetrical cohort in which all patients with cephalic, singleton gestations who attempted vaginal birth were eligible for inclusion. The primary exposure used to quantify the relationship between the proximity of the provider to their shift change and a delivery intervention was the ratio of time from the most recent attending shift change to vaginal delivery or decision for cesarean delivery to the total length of the shift. Ratios were used to represent the proportion of time completed in the shift by normalizing for varying shift lengths. A sensitivity analysis restricted to patients who were delivered by physicians working 12-hour shifts was performed. Outcomes chosen included cesarean delivery, episiotomy, third- or fourth-degree perineal laceration, 5-minute Apgar score of <4, and neonatal intensive care unit admission. Chi-squared tests were used to evaluate outcomes based on the proportion of the attending's shift completed. Adjusted and unadjusted logistic models fitting a cubic spline (when indicated) were used to determine whether the frequency of outcomes throughout the shift occurred in a statistically significant, nonlinear pattern RESULTS: Of the 82,851 patients eligible for inclusion, 47,262 (57%) had ratio data available and constituted the analyzable sample. Deliveries were evenly distributed throughout shifts, with 50.6% taking place in the first half of shifts. There were no statistically significant differences in the frequency of cesarean delivery, episiotomy, third- or fourth-degree perineal lacerations, or 5-minute Apgar scores of <4 based on the proportion of the shift completed. The findings were unchanged when evaluated with a cubic spline in unadjusted and adjusted logistic models. Sensitivity analyses performed on the 22.2% of patients who were delivered by a physician completing a 12-hour shift showed similar findings. There was a small increase in the frequency of neonatal intensive care unit admissions with a greater proportion of the shift completed (adjusted P=.009), but the findings did not persist in the sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSION Clinically significant differences in obstetrical interventions and outcomes do not seem to exist based on the temporal proximity to the attending physician's shift change. Future work should attempt to directly study unit culture and provider fatigue to further investigate opportunities to improve obstetrical quality of care, and additional studies are needed to corroborate these findings in community settings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There are variable reports of risk of concordance for progression to islet autoantibodies and type 1 diabetes in identical twins after one twin is diagnosed. We examined development of positive autoantibodies and type 1 diabetes and the effects of genetic factors and common environment on autoantibody positivity in identical twins, nonidentical twins, and full siblings. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Subjects from the TrialNet Pathway to Prevention Study (N = 48,026) were screened from 2004 to 2015 for islet autoantibodies (GAD antibody [GADA], insulinoma-associated antigen 2 [IA-2A], and autoantibodies against insulin [IAA]). Of these subjects, 17,226 (157 identical twins, 283 nonidentical twins, and 16,786 full siblings) were followed for autoantibody positivity or type 1 diabetes for a median of 2.1 years. RESULTS At screening, identical twins were more likely to have positive GADA, IA-2A, and IAA than nonidentical twins or full siblings (all P < 0.0001). Younger age, male sex, and genetic factors were significant factors for expression of IA-2A, IAA, one or more positive autoantibodies, and two or more positive autoantibodies (all P ≤ 0.03). Initially autoantibody-positive identical twins had a 69% risk of diabetes by 3 years compared with 1.5% for initially autoantibody-negative identical twins. In nonidentical twins, type 1 diabetes risk by 3 years was 72% for initially multiple autoantibody-positive, 13% for single autoantibody-positive, and 0% for initially autoantibody-negative nonidentical twins. Full siblings had a 3-year type 1 diabetes risk of 47% for multiple autoantibody-positive, 12% for single autoantibody-positive, and 0.5% for initially autoantibody-negative subjects. CONCLUSIONS Risk of type 1 diabetes at 3 years is high for initially multiple and single autoantibody-positive identical twins and multiple autoantibody-positive nonidentical twins. Genetic predisposition, age, and male sex are significant risk factors for development of positive autoantibodies in twins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies of early-term birth after demonstrated fetal lung maturity show that respiratory and other outcomes are worse with early-term birth (370-386 weeks) even after demonstrated fetal lung maturity when compared with full-term birth (390-406 weeks). However, these studies included medically indicated births and are therefore potentially limited by confounding by the indication for delivery. Thus, the increase in adverse outcomes might be due to the indication for early-term birth rather than the early-term birth itself. OBJECTIVE We examined the prevalence and risks of adverse neonatal outcomes associated with early-term birth after confirmed fetal lung maturity as compared with full-term birth in the absence of indications for early delivery. STUDY DESIGN This is a secondary analysis of an observational study of births to 115,502 women in 25 hospitals in the United States from 2008 through 2011. Singleton nonanomalous births at 37-40 weeks with no identifiable indication for delivery were included; early-term births after positive fetal lung maturity testing were compared with full-term births. The primary outcome was a composite of death, ventilator for ≥2 days, continuous positive airway pressure, proven sepsis, pneumonia or meningitis, treated hypoglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia (phototherapy), and 5-minute Apgar <7. Logistic regression and propensity score matching (both 1:1 and 1:2) were used. RESULTS In all, 48,137 births met inclusion criteria; the prevalence of fetal lung maturity testing in the absence of medical or obstetric indications for early delivery was 0.52% (n = 249). There were 180 (0.37%) early-term births after confirmed pulmonary maturity and 47,957 full-term births. Women in the former group were more likely to be non-Hispanic white, smoke, have received antenatal steroids, have induction, and have a cesarean. Risks of the composite (16.1% vs 5.4%; adjusted odds ratio, 3.2; 95% confidence interval, 2.1-4.8 from logistic regression) were more frequent with elective early-term birth. Propensity scores matching confirmed the increased primary composite in elective early-term births: adjusted odds ratios, 4.3 (95% confidence interval, 1.8-10.5) for 1:1 and 3.5 (95% confidence interval, 1.8-6.5) for 1:2 matching. Among components of the primary outcome, CPAP use and hyperbilirubinemia requiring phototherapy were significantly increased. Transient tachypnea of the newborn, neonatal intensive care unit admission, and prolonged neonatal intensive care unit stay (>2 days) were also increased with early-term birth. CONCLUSION Even with confirmed pulmonary maturity, early-term birth in the absence of medical or obstetric indications is associated with worse neonatal respiratory and hepatic outcomes compared with full-term birth, suggesting relative immaturity of these organ systems in early-term births.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We tested the ability of a type 1 diabetes (T1D) genetic risk score (GRS) to predict progression of islet autoimmunity and T1D in at-risk individuals. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We studied the 1,244 TrialNet Pathway to Prevention study participants (T1D patients' relatives without diabetes and with one or more positive autoantibodies) who were genotyped with Illumina ImmunoChip (median [range] age at initial autoantibody determination 11.1 years [1.2-51.8], 48% male, 80.5% non-Hispanic white, median follow-up 5.4 years). Of 291 participants with a single positive autoantibody at screening, 157 converted to multiple autoantibody positivity and 55 developed diabetes. Of 953 participants with multiple positive autoantibodies at screening, 419 developed diabetes. We calculated the T1D GRS from 30 T1D-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms. We used multivariable Cox regression models, time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curves, and area under the curve (AUC) measures to evaluate prognostic utility of T1D GRS, age, sex, Diabetes Prevention Trial-Type 1 (DPT-1) Risk Score, positive autoantibody number or type, HLA DR3/DR4-DQ8 status, and race/ethnicity. We used recursive partitioning analyses to identify cut points in continuous variables. RESULTS Higher T1D GRS significantly increased the rate of progression to T1D adjusting for DPT-1 Risk Score, age, number of positive autoantibodies, sex, and ethnicity (hazard ratio [HR] 1.29 for a 0.05 increase, 95% CI 1.06-1.6; P = 0.011). Progression to T1D was best predicted by a combined model with GRS, number of positive autoantibodies, DPT-1 Risk Score, and age (7-year time-integrated AUC = 0.79, 5-year AUC = 0.73). Higher GRS was significantly associated with increased progression rate from single to multiple positive autoantibodies after adjusting for age, autoantibody type, ethnicity, and sex (HR 2.27 for GRS >0.295, 95% CI 1.47-3.51; P = 0.0002). CONCLUSIONS The T1D GRS independently predicts progression to T1D and improves prediction along T1D stages in autoantibody-positive relatives.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although preterm birth <37 weeks' gestation is the leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality in the United States, the majority of data regarding preterm neonatal outcomes come from older studies, and many reports have been limited to only very preterm neonates. Delineation of neonatal outcomes by delivery gestational age is needed to further clarify the continuum of mortality and morbidity frequencies among preterm neonates. OBJECTIVE We sought to describe the contemporary frequencies of neonatal death, neonatal morbidities, and neonatal length of stay across the spectrum of preterm gestational ages. STUDY DESIGN This was a secondary analysis of an obstetric cohort of 115,502 women and their neonates who were born in 25 hospitals nationwide, 2008 through 2011. All liveborn nonanomalous singleton preterm (23.0-36.9 weeks of gestation) neonates were included in this analysis. The frequency of neonatal death, major neonatal morbidity (intraventricular hemorrhage grade III/IV, seizures, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, necrotizing enterocolitis stage II/III, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, persistent pulmonary hypertension), and minor neonatal morbidity (hypotension requiring treatment, intraventricular hemorrhage grade I/II, necrotizing enterocolitis stage I, respiratory distress syndrome, hyperbilirubinemia requiring treatment) were calculated by delivery gestational age; each neonate was classified once by the worst outcome for which criteria was met. RESULTS In all, 8334 deliveries met inclusion criteria. There were 119 (1.4%) neonatal deaths. In all, 657 (7.9%) neonates had major morbidity, 3136 (37.6%) had minor morbidity, and 4422 (53.1%) survived without any of the studied morbidities. Deaths declined rapidly with each advancing week of gestation. This decline in death was accompanied by an increase in major neonatal morbidity, which peaked at 54.8% at 25 weeks of gestation. As frequencies of death and major neonatal morbidity fell, minor neonatal morbidity increased, peaking at 81.7% at 31 weeks of gestation. The frequency of all morbidities fell >32 weeks. After 25 weeks, neonatal length of hospital stay decreased significantly with each additional completed week of pregnancy; among babies delivered from 26-32 weeks of gestation, each additional week in utero reduced the subsequent length of neonatal hospitalization by a minimum of 8 days. The median postmenstrual age at discharge nadired around 36 weeks' postmenstrual age for babies born at 31-35 weeks of gestation. CONCLUSION Our data show that there is a continuum of outcomes, with each additional week of gestation conferring survival benefit while reducing the length of initial hospitalization. These contemporary data can be useful for patient counseling regarding preterm outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to compare maternal and neonatal outcomes in nulliparous women with nonmedically indicated inductions at term vs those expectantly treated. STUDY DESIGN Data were obtained from maternal and neonatal charts for all deliveries on randomly selected days across 25 US hospitals over a 3-year period. A low-risk subset of nulliparous women with vertex nonanomalous singleton gestations who delivered 38 0/7 to 41 6/7 weeks were selected. Maternal and neonatal outcomes for nonmedically indicated induction within each week were compared with women who did not undergo nonmedically indicated induction during that week. Multivariable analysis was used to adjust for hospital, maternal age, race/ethnicity, body mass index, cigarette use, and insurance status. RESULTS We found 31,169 women who met our criteria. Neonatal complications were either less frequent with nonmedically indicated induction or no different between groups. Nonmedically indicated induction was associated with less frequent peripartum infections (odds ratio [OR], 0.39; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.16-0.98) at 38 weeks of gestation and less frequent third- and fourth-degree lacerations (OR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.42-0.86) and less frequent peripartum infections (OR, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.49-0.90) at 39 weeks of gestation. Nonmedically indicated induction was associated with a longer admission-to-delivery time by approximately 3-4 hours and increased odds of cesarean delivery at 38 (OR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.08-2.08) and 40 weeks (OR, 1.30; 95% CI, 1.15-1.46) of gestation. CONCLUSION At 39 weeks of gestation, nonmedically indicated induction is associated with lower maternal and neonatal morbidity than women who are expectantly treated.

Abstract
Ultraviolet (u.v.) inactivated coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) induces rapid calcium flux in naïve BALB/c CD4+ T cells. CD4+ cells lacking decay accelerating factor (DAF-/-) show little calcium flux indicating that virus cross-linking of this virus receptor protein is necessary for calcium signaling in CVB3 infection. Interaction of CVB3 with CD4+ cells also activates NFAT DNA binding. To show that NFAT activation is crucial to CVB3 induced disease, wild-type mice and transgenic mice expressing dominant-negative NFAT (dnNFAT) mutant in T cells were infected and evaluated for myocarditis and pancreatitis 7 days later. Inhibition of NFAT in T cells prevented myocarditis but had no effect on pancreatitis. Virus titers in pancreas were equivalent in wild-type and dnNFAT animals but cardiac virus titers were increased in dnNFAT mice. Interferon-gamma (IFN gamma) expression was reduced in both CD4+ and V gamma 4+ T cells from dnNFAT mice compared to controls. FasL expression by V gamma 4+ cells was also suppressed. Inhibition of FasL expression by V gamma 4+ cells is consistent with myocarditis protection in dnNFAT mice.

Abstract
IL-2, a T-cell growth and differentiation factor, plays an important role in immune homeostasis. Previously, we identified IL2 as a candidate for Aod2, a quantitative trait locus (QTL) controlling susceptibility to autoimmune ovarian dysgenesis (AOD) induced by day 3 neonatal thymectomy. Here, we report the identification of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a region upstream of the minimal IL2 promoter (-2.8 kb to -300 bp), which distinguish AOD-susceptible A/J and AOD-resistant C57BL/6J (B6/J) mice. Six of the SNPs (-1010 C --> T, -962 C --> T, -926/-925 Delta Delta --> AC, -921 T --> C, -914 T --> C and -674 G --> A) contribute to the enhanced transcriptional activity of the extended B6/J promoter relative to A/J. Importantly, the -1010 SNP resides within a canonical AP-1-binding motif with the C --> T transition at this site abrogating AP-1 binding. Moreover, these SNPs segregate with differential production of IL-2 by CD4(+) T cells as well as susceptibility alleles at Idd3 and Eae3, QTL controlling insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and experimental allergic encephalomyelitis. These are the first SNPs identified within the extended murine IL2 promoter that control differential IL-2 transcription in CD4(+) T cells, and, as such, they are not only candidates for Aod2, but are also candidates for a shared autoimmune disease-susceptibility locus underlying Idd3 and Eae3.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Certain psychosocial variables are relatively unexplored as possible predictors of asthma outcomes. OBJECTIVE To determine if asthma self-efficacy, depressive symptoms, and unrealistic expectations predict urgent care use and change in health-related quality of life measured by the Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire and the SF-36 during 2 years. RESEARCH DESIGN Prospective cohort study in a primary care internal medicine practice at a tertiary care center in New York City. PATIENTS Adults with moderate asthma who were fluent in either English or Spanish. MEASUREMENTS At enrollment patients were interviewed in-person and completed a series of questionnaires including the Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ), the SF-36, the Asthma Self-efficacy Scale, the Geriatric Depression Scale, and open-ended questions regarding their expectations of treatment. Patients also completed the AQLQ and SF-36 at various time intervals throughout the study and were interviewed by telephone every 3 months to record recent hospitalizations, emergency department visits and nonroutine office visits for asthma. RESULTS A total of 224 patients were followed for a mean of 23.8 months. In hierarchical analysis, independent predictors of lower AQLQ scores were less self-efficacy, more depressive symptoms, expecting to be cured of asthma, requiring methylxanthines, being Hispanic or black, and having difficult or very difficult access to asthma care (all at P <0.05). Similar predictors were found for lower SF-36 scores. Another outcome, use of urgent care, was required by 60% of patients during the study period. Predictors of using urgent care were having more depressive symptoms, expecting a cure, being female, requiring oral beta-agonists, and having a history of prior hospitalizations for asthma (all at P <0.05). CONCLUSIONS Less asthma self-efficacy, more depressive symptoms, and unrealistic expectations predict worse asthma outcomes. These relatively unexplored patient-centered variables in asthma are potentially modifiable and may offer new ways to intervene to improve asthma outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In spite of the high prevalence of Pneumocystis carinii (PC) pneumonia in immunocompromised patients, little is known about the epidemiological characteristics of this infection, and whether the cases of PC pneumonia in immunosuppressed patients are the result of a reactivation of a latent infection or a due to a recent infection is unknown. The aim of this study was to provide information about the epidemiological characteristics of PC pneumonia in a cohort of heart transplant (HT) recipients when compared with the epidemiology of PC infection in a cohort of chronic sputum producers (CSP) representative of the general population of the same geographical area. METHODS We identified all the cases of PC pneumonia in the cohort of 72 subjects who underwent cardiac transplantation at our institution between January 1991 and December 1996 and compared them with the cases of PC infection identified in a non-selected cohort of 34 CSP. This second group was included to obtain an approximation of the frequency of PC carriers in the general population. Identification of PC was accomplished through customary stain techniques and immunofluorescence with monoclonal antibodies. RESULTS Of the 72 HT recipients four (5.5%) developed PC pneumonia, but one had two episodes. Only one had received primary chemoprophylaxis, but developed PC pneumonia 2 months after discontinuing prophylactic therapy. PC pneumonia episodes were produced 53, 102, 230, 181 and 772 days after the moment of transplant, respectively. PC was identified in two (5.8%) of the 34 CSP. No significant differences were found when the accumulative incidences of PC pneumonia in HT patients and PC infection in CSP were compared (P=0.7). CONCLUSIONS The frequency of PC pneumonia among HT patients is the same as the frequency of PC infection in the general population. This observation and the long interval between transplantation and the development of PC pneumonia observed in the study support the hypothesis that the occurrence of PC pneumonia in immunocompromised patients might be from a new infection rather than from the reactivation of latent organisms. Therefore, continuous prophylaxis might be indicated in areas with a high prevalence of PC for patients at highest risk.

Abstract
c-Fos, a member of the AP-1 family of transcription factors, is necessary for osteoclast differentiation but to date, none of the osteoclast-phenotypic markers have been identified as AP-1 target genes. Here, we demonstrate that carbonic anhydrase II (CA II), an enzyme necessary for osteoclast activity, is transcriptionally upregulated by c-Fos/AP-1. A functional AP-1 binding site is present in the CA II promoter and is necessary for this regulation. Furthermore, we show that AP-1 binding activity, mainly composed of Fra-2 and JunD, is induced by treatment of bone marrow cultures with the osteoclastogenic hormone 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D(3). Fra-2 and JunD are found in mature osteoclasts as well. Thus, our data demonstrate that cFos/AP-1 can directly regulate the expression of this osteoclast marker and that AP-1 activity is upregulated in osteoclast progenitors in response to osteoclastogenic signals.

Abstract
In summary, a multitude of regulatory systems are employed to cause the selective activation of target cytokine genes in Th1 and Th2 effector cells. These mechanisms involve both positive and negative regulation and employ at least three kinds of mechanisms. In the first, selective expression of transcription factors such as GATA3 in Th2 cells and the homeobox gene HLX in Th1 cells occurs, and appears in both cases to play a causal role. Another example of this would be c-maf, discovered by the Glimcher laboratory. A second mechanism is by the selective accumulation of protein through posttranscriptional mechanisms. Thus, junB accumulates in Th2 cells despite the fact that the junB mRNA levels are not different between Th1 and Th2 cells. Finally, the selective use of signaling pathways, in the case studied here MAP kinase pathways, leads to the selective activation of target genes. We believe that transcriptional up-regulation of rac2 leads to the coupling of both the p38 and JNK MAP kinase pathways to the T-cell receptor and/or costimulatory receptors, thereby providing a lineage-specific signal.

Abstract
Activation of the transcription factor NF-kappa B and pre-T cell receptor (pre-TCR) expression is tightly correlated during thymocyte development. Inhibition of NF-kappa B in isolated thymocytes in vitro results in spontaneous apoptosis of cells expressing the pre-TCR, whereas inhibition of NF-kappa B in transgenic mice through expression of a mutated, superrepressor form of I kappa B alpha leads to a loss of beta-selected thymocytes. In contrast, the forced activation of NF-kappa B through expression of a dominant-active I kappa B kinase allows differentiation to proceed to the CD4(+)CD8(+) stage in a Rag1(-/-) mouse that cannot assemble the pre-TCR. Therefore, signals emanating from the pre-TCR are mediated at least in part by NF-kappa B, which provides a selective survival signal for developing thymocytes with productive beta chain rearrangements.

Abstract
cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) is a critical regulator of diverse stimulus-dependent transcriptional events. Following TCR stimulation, CREB is rapidly induced in CD4+ Th cell precursors, but not in effector Th cells. However, its role in mature T cell function is incompletely defined. Transgenic mice expressing a CREB dominant-negative (dn) mutation in the T cell lineage exhibited normal T cell development in the thymus, normal T cell homeostasis in the periphery, and normal T cell clonal expansion following Ag challenge. However, this mutation caused selective inhibition of Th cell function in vitro and in vivo, and increased susceptibility of Th cells to activation-induced cell death. Th cells expressing the CREB-dn mutation contained reduced levels of the inhibitor of programmed cell death, BCL-2; overexpression of BCL-2 in transgenic mice reversed both susceptibility to activation-induced cell death in CREB-dn T cells and the defect in effector cytokine production. Thus, CREB plays a critical role in Th cell function and development of Th cell-mediated adaptive immune responses, at least in part, by inhibiting stimulus-dependent cell death.

Abstract
We have developed a new method that allows the purification of large numbers of both authentic osteoclasts (OCs) and in vitro differentiated osteoclast-like cells (OCLs) from rabbits. We characterized the OCLs in terms of the expression of different phenotypic markers of OC differentiation and their ability to resorb bone. The method provides a system for performing biochemical and molecular studies of OC differentiation and function in a single species. We used this system to characterize the effect of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) on the expression of proteins that bind to the serum response element (SRE) of the c-fos promoter. We found that OCLs and OCs displayed similar SRE-binding activities, including the serum response factor (SRF). This pattern is established in a time-dependent and cell-specific manner in response to long-term treatment of rabbit bone marrow by 1,25(OH)2D3. Thus, 1,25(OH)2D3 can modulate SRF and/or SRF-related protein. This finding may contribute to understanding the role of c-Fos in the regulation of OC differentiation.

Abstract
Functions elicited from mature T cells depend on the nature of the Ag. Thus, an agonist induces a larger set of cytokine responses than a partial agonist. Additionally, Ags present in the thymus influence both the selection of TCRs generated by gene rearrangement and the potential functional program of developing thymocytes. This can be approached by analysing the development of T cells in mice expressing the same transgenic TCR (tgTCR) under different conditions of intrathymic selection. H-2Kbm8 was found to act as a partial agonist for CD8+ T cells expressing a tgTCR specific for the H-2Kb alloantigen. Intrathymic exposure to full or to partial agonist affected the development of thymocytes at different stages, consistent with the respective CD8-independent and -dependent characteristic of the tgTCR/Ag interaction. The presence of the partial agonist led to the accumulation of a major population of thymocytes (tgTCR(high) CD4- CD8(low)) originating from TCR engagement at the immature single-positive CD8(low) stage as evidenced by: 1) results from reaggregated thymic organ culture in the presence of H-2(k/bm8) thymic stromal cells; 2) the absence of CD4+ thymocytes, the development of which depends on rearrangements of endogenous TCR alpha genes; and 3) the identification of the CD8(low) thymocytes as cycling cells. Peripheral CD8(low) T cells selected in an H-2(k/bm8) thymus expressed a partial functional program in response to H-2Kb, akin to the response of CD8(high) T cells to a partial agonist. The analysis of the molecular bases for partial reactivity revealed a correlation with inefficient AP-1, but efficient NF-kappaB transactivation.

Abstract
Retinoic acid is one of the most promising drugs for chemotherapy and chemoprevention of cancer. Either blocking activator protein-1 (AP-1) activity or activating retinoic acid response element (RARE) have been proposed to be responsible for its antitumor activity. However, evidence for this hypothesis is lacking in vivo studies. To address this issue, we used an AP-1-luciferase transgenic mouse as a carcinogenesis model and new synthetic retinoids that are either selective inhibitors of AP-1 activation or selective activators of the RARE. The results showed that the SR11302, an AP-1 inhibition-specific retinoid, and other AP-1 inhibitors such as trans-retinoic acid and fluocinolone acetonide, markedly inhibit both 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate-induced papilloma formation and AP-1 activation in 7,12-dimethyl benz(a)anthracene-initiated mouse skin (P < 0.05). In contrast, repeated applications of SR11235, a retinoid with RARE transactivating activity, but devoid of AP-1 inhibiting effect, did not cause significant inhibition of papilloma formation and AP-1 activation (P > 0.05). These results provide the first in vivo evidence that the antitumor effect of retinoids is mediated by blocking AP-1 activity, but not by activation of RARE.

Abstract
The ability of thymocytes to express cytokine genes changes during the different stages of thymic development. Although CD4- CD8- thymocytes are able to produce a wide spectrum of cytokines in response to a T-cell receptor (TcR)-independent stimulus, as they approach the double-positive (DP) CD4+ CD8+ stage, they lose the ability to produce cytokine. After the DP stage, thymocytes become single-positive CD4+ or CD8+ thymocytes which reacquire the ability to secrete cytokines. In an attempt to understand the molecular basis of this specific regulatin, we use AP-1-luciferase and newly generated NFAT-luciferase transgenic mice to analyze the transcriptional and DNA-binding activities of these two transcription factors that are involved in the regulation of cytokine gene expression. Here, we show that both AP-1 and NFAT transcriptional activities are not inducible in the majority of DP cells but that during the differentiation of DP cells to the mature single-positive stage, thymocytes regain this inducibility. Subpopulation analysis demonstrates that this inducibility is reacquired at the DP stage before the down-modulation of one of the coreceptors. Indeed AP-1 inducibility, just like the ability to express the interleukin-2 gene, is reacquired during the differentiation of DP TcRlow CD69low heat-stable antigen (HSA)high thymocytes to DP TcRhigh CD69high HSAhigh cells, which is considered to be the consequence of the first signal that initiates positive selection. We therefore propose that the inability of DP thymocytes to induce AP-1 and NFAT activities is one of the causes for the lack of cytokine gene expression at this stage and that this inducibility is reacquired at the latest stage of DP differentiation as a consequence of positive selection. This could be a mechanism to prevent the activation of DP thymocytes before selection has taken place.

Abstract
The effect of anti-interleukin (IL-12 treatment on Lyme borreliosis in C3H/HeN (C3H) mice was assessed because other studies have implicated CD4+ T cell helper (Th) type 1 responses in the genesis of disease caused by Borrelia burgdorferi. Infection of inbred mice with B. burgdorferi results in varying degrees of arthritis: BALB/c mice develop mild disease and C3H mice develop severe arthritis that is most pronounced 2-4 wk after infection. Since IL-12 is a major inducer of Th1 responses, we blocked this cytokine in vivo in B. burgdorferi infected C3H mice, and evaluated the effects of treatment on the development of arthritis at the peak of acute joint inflammation (14 d) and in the resolution phase (60 d) of disease. As expected, intraperitoneal administration of an anti-IL-12 monoclonal antibody (mAb) to C3H mice resulted in a decrease in both IFN-gamma and B. burgdorferi-specific IgG2a in serum, indicative of diminished Th1 responses. No IL-4 production was detected in serum of anti-IL-12 mAb treated or control mice. IgG1 and IgG2b levels did not increase in B. burgdorferi infected mice treated with anti-IL-12 mAb compared with controls suggesting that Th2 responses were not affected. Nevertheless, CD4+ T cells from both control and anti-IL-12 mAb treated mice had similar in vitro responses to B. burgdorferi antigens. Treatment with anti-IL-12 mAb produced a significant reduction in peak arthritis severity, and an increase in the number of spirochetes in ear tissue. These data show that treatment of B. burgdorferi infected mice with anti-IL-12 mAb results in a reduction of the Th1 and/or innate immune responses in vivo and a reduction in the severity of acute murine Lyme arthritis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES In Venezuela, family medicine is taught and practiced almost exclusively in ambulatory care settings. This article describes the evolution of the educational strategies that emphasize family and community aspects of clinical practice within one residency program in the country of Venezuela. METHODS Three distinct phases of development are depicted, beginning with a biomedical and individual-centered approach. Subsequent efforts to involve residents in the community provoked criticism. Resident-faculty dialogue led to modifications and to the success of the current program. Some of the specific educational strategies are: a structured weekly five-hour community afternoon, a 40-hour course titled "Family Dynamics and Counseling," use of the family-oriented home visit to introduce residents to the community aspects of health care, and completion of a community-based and health-related project. RESULTS A sample of residents and graduates noted an improved doctor-patient relationship, improved ability to work with groups, and improved skills for incorporating preventive medicine with a community focus into their clinical practice. CONCLUSIONS The community involvement is enthusiastically supported by the residents, as it is perceived as useful for clinical practice. The program prepares family physicians to become more responsive to the health needs and the reality of Venezuelan society.

Abstract
The metabolism of exogenously added d-myo-[1-(3)H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) has been examined in microsomal membrane and soluble fractions of carrot (Daucus carota L.) cells grown in suspension culture. When [(3)H]IP(3) was added to a microsomal membrane fraction, [(3)H]IP(2) was the primary metabolite consisting of approximately 83% of the total recovered [(3)H] by paper electrophoresis. [(3)H]IP was only 6% of the [(3)H] recovered, and 10% of the [(3)H]IP(3) was not further metabolized. In contrast, when [(3)H]IP(3) was added to the soluble fraction, approximately equal amounts of [(3)H]IP(2) and [(3)H]IP were recovered. Ca(2+) (100 micromolar) tended to enhance IP(3) dephosphorylation but inhibited the IP(2) dephosphorylation in the soluble fraction by about 20%. MoO(4) (2-) (1 millimolar) inhibited the dephosphorylation of IP(3) by the microsomal fraction and the dephosphorylation of IP(2) by the soluble fraction. MoO(4) (2-), however, did not inhibit the dephosphorylation of IP(3) by the soluble fraction. Li(+) (10 and 50 millimolar) had no effect on IP(3) metabolism in either the soluble or membrane fraction; however, Li(+) (50 millimolar) inhibited IP(2) dephosphorylation in the soluble fraction about 25%.

Abstract
To determine whether or not inositol trisphosphate (IP(3)) mobilizes calcium in higher plant cells, we investigated the effect of IP(3) on Ca(2+) fluxes in fusogenic carrot (Daucus carota L.) protoplasts. The protoplasts were incubated in (45)Ca(2+)-containing medium and the (45)Ca(2+) associated with the protoplasts was monitored with time. Addition of IP(3) (20 micromolar) caused a 17% net loss of the accumulated (45)Ca(2+) within 4 minutes. There was a reuptake of (45)Ca(2+) and the protoplasts recovered to their initial value by 10 minutes. Phytic acid (IP(6)), also stimulated (45)Ca(2+) efflux from the protoplasts. Both the IP(3(-) ) and the IP(6(-) )induced (45)Ca(2+) efflux were inhibited by the calmodulin antagonist, trifluoperazine.
