Indication of a cosmological variation of the proton-electron mass ratio based on laboratory measurement and reanalysis of H2 spectra.

Based on highly accurate laboratory measurements of Lyman bands of H2 and an updated representation of the structure of the ground X 1sigma(g)+ and excited B 1sigma(u)+ and C 1pi(u) states, a new set of sensitivity coefficients K(i) is derived for all lines in the H2 spectrum, representing the dependence of their transition wavelengths on a possible variation of the proton-electron mass ratio mu = m(p)/m(e). Included are local perturbation effects between B and C levels and adiabatic corrections. The new wavelengths and K(i) factors are used to compare with a recent set of highly accurate H2 spectral lines observed in the Q 0347-383 and Q 0405-443 quasars, yielding a fractional change in the mass ratio of deltamu/mu = (2.4 +/- 0.6) x 10(-5) for a weighted fit and deltamu/mu = (2.0 +/- 0.6) x 10(-5) for an unweighted fit. This result indicates, at a 3.5sigma confidence level, that mu could have decreased in the past 12 Gyr.

A Reanalysis of the Two-Component Phloem Loading System in Beta vulgaris.

Kinetic analysis of [(14)C]sucrose loading into sugar beet leaf discs revealed the presence of two transport components. At low exogenous sucrose concentrations, a saturable component, which exhibited Michaelis-Menten characteristics, was the main mode of transport. At concentrations greater than 50 millimolar, phloem loading was dominated by a linear component which appeared to operate as a first order kinetic transport process. Over the exogenous sucrose concentrations employed, influx could be described by the equation v = V(max)S/(S + K(m)) + kS. Influx via both processes was strongly pH-dependent. Evidence is presented that the linear component was not explicable in terms of simple diffusion, or exchange diffusion, into either mesophyll or minor vein phloem tissue. Extensive metabolic conversion of sucrose was not a factor contributing to influx at high external sucrose concentrations. At present, it is believed that both components operate in parallel at the membrane bounding the sieve element-companion cell complex. The saturable component is identified with sucrose-H(+) cotransport. While the significance of the linear component has been established, its nature remains to be elucidated.

Clinical Trial: Phase 3 Trial of Resmetirom Versus Placebo in Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis-Reanalysis of Fibrosis Stage 2-3 Subset.

BACKGROUND: Resmetirom is an oral thyroid hormone receptor beta agonist clinically used to treat metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) among adults with stage F2 or F3 fibrosis. AIMS: Because the pivotal, 52-week, randomized, controlled, phase 3 MAESTRO-NASH trial (once-daily oral resmetirom 80 or 100&#x2009;mg or placebo) included patients with F1, F2, or F3 fibrosis, we conducted a post hoc analysis aimed at assessing treatment response in the subset of patients with stages F2 and F3 fibrosis, consistent with the approved label population. METHODS: Co-primary end points were MASH resolution (hepatocellular ballooning score 0, lobular inflammation score &#x2264;&#x2009;1, and &#x2265;&#x2009;2-point nonalcoholic fatty liver disease activity score [NAS] reduction from baseline) with no fibrosis worsening, and &#x2265;&#x2009;1-stage fibrosis improvement with no NAS worsening at Week 52. RESULTS: Among 917 patients with F2 or F3 fibrosis, metabolic risk factor prevalence was high (hypertension, 78.0%; dyslipidemia, 71.1%; type 2 diabetes, 67.0%). MASH resolution was achieved by 25.7% in the 80-mg group, 29.9% in the 100-mg group, and 9.5% in the placebo group (p&#x2009;<&#x2009;0.0001 for both comparisons with placebo). Respective percentages with fibrosis improvement were 26.5%, 28.9%, and 17.3% (p&#x2009;<&#x2009;0.01 for both comparisons). From baseline to Week 24, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol decreased by 11.7% and 13.7% in the 80- and 100-mg resmetirom groups, respectively, and increased by 2.3% with placebo (p&#x2009;<&#x2009;0.0001 for both comparisons). No new safety signals emerged. CONCLUSION: Results among patients with F2 and F3 fibrosis were consistent with the primary MAESTRO-NASH analysis population, demonstrating efficacy and safety of resmetirom after 52&#x2009;weeks.

Reanalysis of the HLA-DRw6 complex.

The serological definition of the HLA-DRw6 specificity has been complicated by the lack of monospecific reagents. During the 8th International Histocompatibility Workshop several subspecificities of DRw6 were proposed. In the present study we have reanalysed the reactions of 8th Workshop and local sera in families and homozygous typing cells. These studies have revealed four DRw6 related reaction patterns. The patterns are described and compared with those reported by others. Two of these specificities are commonly observed in Dutch Caucasoids, one related with Dw6 and one with Dw9. The other DRw6 related reaction patterns are very infrequent in this population. In addition, the relation between a locally defined specificity LB5x8 and two new specificities 8wDRw13 and 8wDRw17 is discussed.

A reanalysis of the HLA-B7 cross-reactive group.

Cross-reactivity between antigens of the HLA-B7 cross-reactive group (B7 CREG) was investigated by the serological analysis of 60 "broad" cytotoxic HLA antisera produces by pregnancy alone, the HLA typing of the antiserum donors and the identification of their immunizing antigens. Thirty-five sera, made in response to B7, covered (as a group) HLA-B7, B27, Bw42, Bw48, Bw54, Bw55, Bw56, Bw60 and Bw61--the B7 CREG antigens. Bidirectional cross-reactivity occurred between the B7 antigen and B27, Bw55, Bw56 and Bw60 antigens but not between the major B7 CREG antigens B27, Bw22 and B40. HLA-B27 stimulated antisera included B7, B13 and Bw47 within their reaction range and Bw55/Bw56 cross-reacted with Bw42, Bw54, Bw57, Bw58, Bw62 and Bw63. Bidirectional cross-reactivity was observed between Bw55 and Bw57. Fourteen responders possessed an antigen cross-reactive with their immunizing antigen. These findings are discussed in relation to the sharing of determinants by pairs and "families" of HLA antigens.

X-linkage and genetic heterogeneity in bipolar-related major affective illness: reanalysis of linkage data.

It has been suggested that an X-linked dominant allele operates in the genetic transmission of bipolar (manic-depressive) illness. Linkage studies with X-chromosome markers have remained inconclusive, showing both positive and negative results. Some of the ambiguity may be attributed to imprecise analytic methods and genetic heterogeneity. In this report, recently published pedigree series are reanalysed for linkage using a systematic method of pedigree analysis (Liped 3) with an accurate age-of-onset correction. Linkage heterogeneity is assessed through a two-recombination fraction heterogeneity test suggested by Smith (1963). The results are as follows: (1) Close linkage of bipolar illness to colourblindness (deutan and protan) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency appears to be present in some pedigrees, with estimated recombination fractions of theta = 0.05 and 0.00, respectively; (2) Linkage with the Xg blood group cannot be supported. These results are consistent with known linkages on the X chromosome.
