| At the Savannah River Site in South Carolina, there are five strange looking "patches" cleared out of the surrounding forest. No, they're not crop circles carved by aliens. They're actually budding longleaf pine forest ecosystems. Biologists have created these ecological patches with the help of the United States Forest Service-Savannah River to understand whether "corridors" help plants and animals survive habitat fragmentation. | |||

| • | Hyperandrogenism after transfer of topical testosterone gel: case report and review of published and unpublished studies | ||
|
Topically applied testosterone gels are a widely used mode of testosterone replacement therapy. A concern associated with the use of testosterone gel is unintentional transfer to children or women by skin contact with the application site. We present a case of female hyperandrogenism most likely caused by transfer of testosterone gel used by her partner. Additionally, we searched the computerized database PUBMED and the FDA medical reviews for case reports and clinical trials concerning transfer risk. Several case reports and the results of clinical trials indicate that transfer of testosterone from gel-treated males to women and children is possible and clinically relevant. Thus, the potential of testosterone transfer in gel users should be recognized as a possible side effect of this form of testosterone replacement therapy. |

| The specific activity of pyruvate kinase (PK) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) of adult I. hypselobagri regulates the glycolysis and CO2 fixation pathway. The PK activity is extremely low, 18.96°0.54 nmol/min/mg proteins, in I. hypselobagri, which is further depleted in in vitro starvation. The PEPCK activity in I. hypselobagri is more or less ten times higher than PK activity, 182°0.1 nmol/min/mg protein, which is further increased in in vitro starvation. The phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) content of the fresh control fluke varies between 0.532 to 0.608 μmol/mg protein with an average value of 0.556°0.024 μmol/mg protein which is utilized during in vitro starvation. The ratio of PK/PEPCK in fresh fluke is 0.104, which gradually decreases during in vitro starvation period. The PK/PEPCK ratio indicates the CO2 fixation pathway and reverse TCA cycle of energy metabolism is operative in this parasite of swim bladder of Wallago attu. | |||

| • | Entomopathogens (Beauveria bassiana and Steinernema carpocapsae) for biological control of bark-feeding moth Indarbela dea on field-infested litchi trees | ||
| BACKGROUND: The bark-feeding moth Indarbela dea (Swinhoe) is one of the major pests of litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) in Asia. Effects on larval mortality and web production were tested by repeated, single and combined tree trunk applications of the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana (Bals.) Vuill. and the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema carpocapsae (Weiser). Two separate application trials were conducted in different seasons on young and older larvae respectively.RESULTS: In both trials, complete or nearly complete mortality (100% and 95%) of the larvae was achieved 3 weeks after application of S. carpocapsae alone and 2 weeks after the combined application of B. bassiana and S. carpocapsae (100% in both trials). However, in the combined application, all larvae were killed by one treatment, while the application of S. carpocapsae alone needed to be repeated to reach the same result. The effectiveness of the combined entomopathogen application and of the application of S. carpocapsae alone was not influenced by the age of the larvae. However, the single applications of B. bassiana were only effective on young larvae. In both trials, web production of surviving larvae was very significantly reduced by the application of S. carpocapsae in single and combined treatments.CONCLUSIONS: As the results show, only one application is necessary in the combined application of the two entomopathogens to control I. dea, which implies that such treatment is probably the economically most relevant solution.

| • | 7.340 Immune Evasion: How Sneaky Pathogens Avoid Host Surveillance, Spring 2004 (MIT) | ||
| This course is an advanced undergraduate seminar based upon discussions and critical analysis of primary literature in the field of immunology. Every infection consists of a battle between the invading pathogen and the resisting host. To be successful, a pathogen must escape the many defenses of the host immune system until it can replicate and spread to another host. A pathogen must prevent one of three stages of immune function: detection, activation, or effector function. Examples of disease specific immune evasion and the mechanisms used by pathogens to prevail over their host's immune systems are discussed. What these host-pathogen interactions reveal about the normal function of the immune system and about basic cell biological processes, such as protein maturation and degradation, are also considered. | |||

| Increasing the production of naturally occurring proteins that contain selenium in human blood cells slows down multiplication of the AIDS virus, according to biochemists. "We have found that increasing the expression of proteins that contain selenium negatively affects the replication of HIV," said K. Sandeep Prabhu, Penn State assistant professor of immunology and molecular toxicology. "Our results suggest a reduction in viral replication by at least 10-fold. | |||

| This study goes a long way toward documenting the link between stress and cancer. The implications for further research are huge.Inhibiting norepinephrine is no small feat. Norepinephrine is a neurotransmitter that is similar to adrenaline. These hormones act together to produce heart rate and blood pressure increases among other biochemical actions to launch us into our natural defense mode, described as fight or flight. Chronic high levels of stress result in chronic high levels of norepinephrine and adrenaline.Sulforaphane is a compound that can be obtained by eating cruciferous vegetables such as Brussels sprouts, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, bok choy, kale, collards, kohlrabi, mustard, turnip, radish, rocket, and watercress.The compound's anticancer activity is thought to be relate... | |||

| • | Spiders in Space [Zooillogix] | ||
Two weeks ago the University of Colorado College of Engineering sent two orb weaving spiders up in the space shuttle. The spiders' web building behavior was observed and streamed back to earth, serving as a classroom tool for teaching fifth though ninth graders about the effects of zero gravity. Great idea. Except when scientists opened up the second spider's box, they found it had escaped. Thus began the plot to a perfect B- Sci-Fi/Horror flick. Unfortunately for all of us safely earthbound observers, the other spider turned up in its buddy's box shortly thereafter, having succeeded only in giving the astronaut crew zero-gravity willies. While technologically superior to earth spiders, space spiders have not yet mastered web building: Previous NASA arthropod research did not fare as well: |

It has 3 differents stages, acute, indeterminate and chronic phase, with the chance of an etiological approach in the first stage and pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment in the chronic phase. There are five main clinical forms of chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy: indeterminate, arrhythymogenic (predominantly dromotropic and extrasystolic), with ventricular dysfunction, thromboembolic and mixed forms. There are several diagnostic tests at th... | |||
