The Immunology Of Transplantation, J. R. Serie Jan 1985

The Immunology Of Transplantation, J. R. Serie

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

A number of life-threatening diseases, such as kidney failure, diabetes, and certain kinds of coronary heart disease, can be cured by organ transplantation. However, despite decades of research, graft rejection remains a very real threat to the organ transplant recipient. In attempting to develop methods that interfere with the graft rejection process, scientists have uncovered a remarkably complex system of cellular interactions that allows the total destruction of a transplanted organ while leaving the recipient's own organs untouched. This ability to distinguish self from non-self is achieved through intercellular communication involving cell-to-cell contact and the release of a number of …

Right To Know Legislation In Minnesota, Leo Uzych Jan 1985

Right To Know Legislation In Minnesota, Leo Uzych

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

In June 1983, Minnesota approved a right to know law pertaining to the disclosure of information to workers about chemical hazards emanating from the workplace. A federal hazard communication disseminated in November 1983 may affect Minnesota's right to know law.

Methemoglobin Reduction In The Presence Of Various Concentrations Of Oxyhemoglobin, Ali Mansouri Jan 1985

Methemoglobin Reduction In The Presence Of Various Concentrations Of Oxyhemoglobin, Ali Mansouri

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science

Methemoglobin reduction in human red blood cell is governed by many factors, one of which is the concentration of oxyhemoglobin. Experiments were conducted to determine the inhibition of methemoglobin reduction by oxyhemoglobin under concentrations approaching those in the red cell. Hemoglobin, methemoglobin reductase and cytochrome b₅ were prepared by routine protein purification methods. Methemoglobin reduction was carried out at 37° C in spectrophotometer. It is shown that methemoglobin concentration variation (at least when it is above 1 mM) does not change the reduction rate. Whereas, the ratio of methemoglobin to oxyhemoglobin determines the rate of methemoglobin reduction when all other …

Linkage Data Excluding A Locus For Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2 Syndromes From The Distal Part Of The Short Arm Of Chromosome 11, Kenneth K. Kidd, Susan D. Kruger, Daniela S. Gerhard, Judith R. Kidd, David Housman, Joseph M. Gertner Dec 1984

Linkage Data Excluding A Locus For Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2 Syndromes From The Distal Part Of The Short Arm Of Chromosome 11, Kenneth K. Kidd, Susan D. Kruger, Daniela S. Gerhard, Judith R. Kidd, David Housman, Joseph M. Gertner

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A study designed to identify the location of a gene for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN-2) is being performed using a single large family segregating for MEN-2A. Here we report our initial results using a set of DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms spanning a 40 cM segment of the short arm of human chromosome 11. The locus for MEN-2 in this family is excluded from this entire region which includes an oncogene, c-Ha-ras-1, two hormone loci, insulin and parathyroid, and the five hemoglobin genes in the beta hemoglobin gene duster. This is the first exclusion of such a large …

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

We evaluated the effects of screening for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A (MEN-2A) in 12 families. Genealogical studies going back to 1730 show a common ancestry for seven Swedish families and one American family. The total number of patients included 105 individuals, 68 of whom were diagnosed by our screening program. Our screening methods for medullary carcinoma of the thyroid (MTC) had an optimal sensitivity and specificity. The frequency of gene carriers detected in MEN-2A families was 55%. Screening will lead to early diagnosis and early therapy, which in turn, will significantly decrease morbidity, incidence of surgical complications, and mortality …

Chromosomes In Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2 Syndromes, Daniel L. Van Dyke, V. Ramesh Babu, Charles E. Jackson Dec 1984

Chromosomes In Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2 Syndromes, Daniel L. Van Dyke, V. Ramesh Babu, Charles E. Jackson

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

In 19 patients from nine MEN-2A families, high-resolution C-banded chromosome studies have revealed a visible deletion within sub-band 20p12.2, yet no abnormality was observed in a 10th family. A deletion indistinguishable from that in MEN-2A was observed in five patients from three MEN-2B families but not in two other MEN-2B families. We found no abnormality in the entire karyotype of the four MEN-1 patients studied. These findings suggest that the mutation in most MEN-2 patients is a visible deletion in the short arm of chromosome 20.

Research Vistas In The Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Syndromes, John J. Mulvihill

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Progress in understanding the single gene, cytogenetic, and multifactorial traits that predispose to human cancer suggests possible new directions for research in the multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) syndromes. Among the other 200 or so monogenic disorders associated with human neoplasia, advances have come from further delineation of syndromes by various clinical specialists, the recognition of subtypes of syndromes previously thought to be homogeneous, the search for in vitro manifestations of the mutant gene in fibroblasts, and the establishment of cell, tissue and patient registries and of voluntary lay organizations to serve as advocates for the disease. With regard to cytogenetics, …

Register Of Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2 Syndromes In The United Kingdom, Bruce A. J. Ponder

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A collaborative group for the study of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN-2) syndromes comprised of clinicians and laboratory scientists has been set up in the United Kingdom. Its aims are 1) to provide a basis for collaborative work on MEN-2; 2) to establish a register of patients; 3) and specifically to conduct studies aimed at defining the best policy for screening the families of apparently sporadic patients, to establish radioimmunoassays for family screening, and to identify large kindreds for genetic linkage studies using DNA polymorphisms.

Screening For Hereditary Medullary Cancer In Denmark, Kristian Emmertsen Dec 1984

Screening For Hereditary Medullary Cancer In Denmark, Kristian Emmertsen

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Screening of first-degree relatives of patients with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) gave normal values of pentagastrin-stimulated serum calcitonin and 24-hour urinary catecholamine levels in the relatives of 18 of 22 patients. This result is considered to be valid evidence for sporadic MTC. Absence of C-cell hyperplasia maybe another indication of sporadic MTC. Four hereditary MTCs were represented by one fully expressed MEN-2B patient without affected relatives, one fully expressed MEN-2A case in one family, and two first cousins with MTC as the only MEN-2A lesion in another family. Fourteen relatives of the MEN-2A patients had elevated serum calcitonin levels, and …

Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2 Syndromes In Japan, Shin-Ichiro Takai, Akira Miyauchi, Hideo Matsumoto, Tatsuro Ikeuchi, Tetsuro Miki, Kanji Kuma, Yuichi Kumahara

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Through nationwide surveys, we collected and analyzed 242 patients of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). Included were 40 patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A (MEN-2A), six patients with MEN-2B, and 36 patients with only MTC having a positive family history (82 total patients in the hereditary group). Ten-year survival rates were 81.5% for all cases, and 97.5% and 76.1% for the hereditary and the sporadic group, respectively. Epinephrine/norepinephrine ratio in the urine was found to be a good indicator of the adrenomedullary hyperfunction in patients with hereditary MTC. At least one patient in each family with hereditary MTC had overt …
