Previous reports in the literature have described correlation of increasing repeat length with severity of the phenotype, in Kennedy syndrome. We describe male siblings with different repeat lengths, with lack of expression of the phenotype in the sibling with the longer repeat length. The phenotype was identical to motor neurone disease. There is variability of expression in Kennedy syndrome and repeat length even in siblings cannot be taken as a conclusive indicator of severity. CAG repeat length cannot be used to predict the natural history of Kennedy disease. The diagnosis of Kennedy syndrome should be considered in male patients presenting with atypical motor neurone disease. 相似文献

The clinical manifestations of chronic disseminated histoplasmosis are non-specific and resemble those of other chronic infections and malignancies. We report the radiographic, sonographic and contrast-enhanced CT appearances of histoplasmosis in an adult male with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, who was HIV negative and presented with weight loss and pyrexia. Imaging studies simulated tuberculosis with mediastinal lymphadenopathy, bilateral fibrotic lung lesions, hepatomegaly and bilateral hypoattenuating adrenal enlargement, without clinical or laboratory evidence of hypoadrenalism. Computed tomography-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy of adrenal glands revealed Histoplasma capsulatum. We report our experience to increase awareness of the imaging spectrum of disseminated histoplasmosis and its similarity to tuberculosis as, with increasing incidence of AIDS, the chances of these infections are likely to increase. Moreover, awareness of this entity is important because it is known that untreated disseminated histoplasmosis is fatal. 相似文献

The sequences of the S10 genes of 28 recent isolates (1994-2004) of bluetongue virus (BTV) from the United States (US) and French Martinique Island (2006) in the Caribbean Basin were compared in phylogenetic analyses to those of viruses previously isolated in the same regions. Although the analyses segregated the recent virus isolates from the two regions into distinct topotype clusters, the analyses also confirm that viruses from the US and the Caribbean Basin/Central America can share similar S10 genes despite the fact that distinct constellations of BTV serotypes occur in the two regions. 相似文献

Purification of Hageman factor (HF, factor XII) from human plasma is a tedious procedure and the product is not always in the precursor form. Hojima has described a protein derived from corn kernels that inhibits the enzymatic properties of HF. This inhibitor binds to the precursor form of HF. Rapid purification of HF was achieved by using as the major purification step adsorption of this clotting factor to popcorn inhibitor bound to agarose. The product had a specific activity of 50.0 to 67.1 coagulant units of HF per milligram protein, and the yield was 33% to 40% of the HF content of the starting plasma. The purified protein displayed a single band upon unreduced or reduced sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and less than 0.1% was in an activated form, as measured in coagulant assays. The technique described is more rapid and reliable than methods described earlier. 相似文献

A retrospective analysis of 127 surgically treated cases of T-1, T-2 carcinoma of oral tongue during the period 1987-1990 was undertaken. 68.5 per cent (87) underwent hemiglossectomy and 31.5 per cent (40) underwent wide excision. There were loco-regional recurrences in 22 per cent (27). In the hemiglossectomy group 9 per cent (8 of 87) had local recurrences compared to 25 per cent (10 of 40) of wide excision group, (P = 0.01). Mean disease free survival was 40 months and 33 months for hemiglossectomy group and wide excision group respectively, (P = 0.006). It is seen that local recurrences are significantly less for the hemiglossectomy group compared to the wide excision group.KEY WORDS: Disease free survival, Early cancer, Recurrence, Surgery, Tongue 相似文献

用抗小鼠EGF抗血清作第一抗体,用ABC免疫组织化学方法对生后3、6、9、12、15、21d龄和成年BALB/c小鼠肾脏内EGF的定位进行了研究。实验表明,EGF样免疫反应均定位于远端小管,且多集中于上述部位细胞的顶部。新生幼鼠和3d龄鼠的肾脏切片上EGF样免疫反应为阴性。6d龄切片上EG免疫反应甚弱。随年龄增长,EGF样免疫反应亦增强。21d龄小鼠肾脏较其他年龄组和成年鼠有较强的免疫反应。本研究 相似文献

Protein kinase C (PKC) is a family of enzymes that play a ubiquitous role in intracellular signal transduction. Our understanding of the precise role of PKC has evolved considerably as a result of improved methodology and a better understanding of the signal transduction pathways. A number of primary pathways previously attributed to PKC have been re-examined and found to involve other kinases as our understanding of the PKC isozymes has evolved. PKC isozymes appear to play distinct, and in some cases opposing roles in the transduction of intracellular signals. The development of potent and selective PKC inhibitors, including isozyme-selective inhibitors, has opened new avenues for biochemical and pharmaceutical studies. The role of PKC in some of the pathways relevant to cardiovascular, peripheral microvascular, CNS, oncology, immune and infectious disease states are surveyed. A survey of the current generation of potent and selective ATP-competitive inhibitors is provided. The progress of PKC inhibitors currently in clinical development, including LY333531, ISIS 3521 (CGP 64128A), bryostatin 1, GF109203x, Ro 32-0432 and Ro 31-8220, Go 6976 and Go 7611, CPR 1006, and balanol (SPC 100840) are discussed. 相似文献

NAD+-dependent histone deacetylases, sirtuins, cleave acetyl groups from lysines of histones and other proteins to regulate their activity. Identification of potent selective inhibitors would help to elucidate sirtuin biology and could lead to useful therapeutic agents. NAD+ has an adenosine moiety that is also present in the kinase cofactor ATP. Kinase inhibitors based upon adenosine mimesis may thus also target NAD+-dependent enzymes. We present a systematic approach using adenosine mimics from one cofactor class (kinase inhibitors) as a viable method to generate new lead structures in another cofactor class (sirtuin inhibitors). Our findings have broad implications for medicinal chemistry and specifically for sirtuin inhibitor design. Our results also raise a question as to whether selectivity profiling for kinase inhibitors should be limited to ATP-dependent targets. 相似文献
