Isolation and identification of chondroitin sulfates from the mud snail

Chondroitin sulfates were isolated from the mud snail. For the quantitative analysis of enzymatic digestion products of isolated chondroitin sulfates, strong anion exchange-high performance liquid chromatography (SAX-HPLC) was performed. By the action of chondroitinase ABC, three unsaturated disaccharides 2-acetamide-2-deoxy-3-O-(β-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-D-galactose (ΔDi-OS), 2-acetamide-2-deoxy-3-O-(β-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-6-O-sulfo-D-galactose (ΔDi-6S) and 2-acetamide-2-deoxy-3-O-(β-D-gluco-4-enepyranosyluronic acid)-4-O-sulfo-D-galactose (ΔDi-4S) were produced from the mud snail chondroitin sulfates. The analysis showed that relative proportion of ΔDi-OS/ΔDi-6S/ΔDi-4S was 58.7/3.1/38.2. The immunomodulating activity of chondroitin sulfate was examined by cell proliferation assay and these results suggest that it might be a immunosuppressant.     

Longitudinal study of the frequency of cytotoxic T cell precursors in kidney allograft recipients

Clonal deletion or inactivation of donor-specific alloreactive cells are important mechanisms that are believed to account for acquired immune tolerance in allograft recipients. Serial assessment of precursor cytotoxic T lymphocyte frequencies (CTLpf) by limiting dilution analysis (LDA) provides information at the clonal level on changes in the alloimmune response of graft recipients. We performed a longitudinal study of 15 cadaveric kidney recipients before and every 3 months throughout the first year after transplantation (Tx). Pre-Tx values of donor CTLpf showed high interindividual variability without a predictive value for the clinical outcome. All patients with well functioning kidneys had decreased CTLpf at 3 months post-Tx in comparison with pre-Tx values. This decrease was donor-specific in four patients and was permanent in two cases throughout the study. Most patients presented decreased anti-donor CTLpf values from 6 to 9 months, whereas a partial recovery of donor CTLpf was observed in three patients. Reversible acute rejection was diagnosed in three patients, and it was associated with a marked increase in anti-donor CTLpf, returning to pre-Tx values by 9 months post-Tx. In addition, one patient with chronic rejection displayed a transient increase in CTLpf 6 months after Tx. The results of this sequential study indicate the establishment of a state of either hyporesponsiveness or functional clonal inactivation, transient or permanent, which could facilitate allograft acceptance.

Correlation between bone marrow karyotype and the occurrence of erythroblast micronuclei and nuclear budding in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes

147 patients with myelodysplastic syndromes were investigated for the presence of micronuclei and nuclear budding in bone marrow erythroblasts. The patients were divided into subgroups on the basis of bone marrow karyotype, 31 healthy bone marrow donors constituted a control group. Patients with monosomy 7 or 7q- and patients with major karyotypic abnormalities (MAKA) had significantly more erythroblasts with micronuclei and nuclear budding than the control group. Patients with a 5q- chromosome as the sole karyotypic aberration had more micronuclei than the controls. For other patients with MDS the differences were statistically nonsignificant.     

Hepatitis B virus genetic diversity and its impact on diagnostic assays

Summary.  Hepatitis B virus (HBV) circulates in blood as closely related, but genetically diverse molecules called quasispecies. During replication, HBV production may approach 10¹¹ molecules/day, although during peak activity this rate may increase 100–1000 times. Generally, DNA polymerases have excellent fidelity in reading DNA templates because they are associated with an exonuclease which removes incorrectly added nucleotides. However, the HBV-DNA polymerase lacks fidelity and proofreading function partly because exonuclease activity is either absent or deficient. Thus, the HBV genome and especially the envelope gene, is mutated with unusually high frequency. These mutations can affect more than one open reading frame because of overlapping genes. The S gene contains an exposed major hydrophilic region (residues 110–155), which encompasses the 'a' determinant that is important for inducing immunity. Nucleotide substitutions in this region are common and result in reduced binding or failure to detect hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in diagnostic assays. Adaptive immunity also depends on the recognition of HBsAg by specific antibody and variants pose a threat if they interfere with binding to antibody. Finally, genomic hypervariability allows HBV to escape selection pressures imposed by antiviral therapies, vaccines and the host immune system, and is responsible for creating genotypes, subgenotypes and subtypes.
