[more ▼] Purpose: To determine the profile of Coll2-1, Coll2-1NO2 and myeloperoxydase (MPO) serum concentrations in experimental knee OA induced in the dog by transection of the anterior cruciate ligament. Methods: Surgical transection of the ACL of the right knee was performed on 16 adult crossbred dogs. The dogs were sacrificed 8 weeks after the surgical procedure. Coll2-1, Coll2-1NO2 and MPO were measured by specific immunoassays in 16 dogs at baseline and every 2 weeks during the 8 weeks. The results were expressed as median (range). Results: Immunostainings with D3 and D37, the antiserum recognizing Coll2-1 and Coll2-1NO2, respectively, labelled extracellular matrix in the superficial layer of fibrillated cartilage. After the transection of the ACL, the concentration of 3 biomarkers increased significantly (Friedman test: p<0.001). The concentrations of Coll2-1 and MPO were significantly increased at week 2 compared to baseline [Coll2-1 baseline: 281.57 (131.02-384.67) nM vs Coll2-1 week 2: 345.52 (181.15-589.25) nM (p<0.01) and MPO baseline: 5.16 (<0.4-14.7) ng/ml vs MPO week 2: 14.54 (3.28-31.50) ng/ml (p<0.001)] and remained stable until week 8 [Coll2-1 week 8:318.89 (117.95-492.28) nM and MPO week 8: 11.55 (2.87-42.94) ng/ml]. The Coll2-1NO2 concentration increased significantly at weeks 6 and 8 compared to baseline [Coll2-1NO2 baseline: 0.54 (0.29-1.48) nM vs Coll2-1NO2 week 6: 0.64 (0.40-1.9) nM (p<0.001) vs week 8: 0.61 (0.37-1.79) nM]. Conclusions: These findings suggest that Coll2-1 is a relevant marker for the detection of early structural changes in OA dogs. Interestingly, MPO and Coll2-1NO2 are increased in OA dogs indicating that an oxidative stress occurs in this OA model.

[more ▼] In this paper, we present the results of three different studies of the Fomalhaut debris disk with infrared interferometry. First, VLTI/AMBER measurements are used to determine the position angle of the slightly oblate rapidly rotating photosphere by means of differential phase measurements across the Br-gamma photospheric line. This measurement allows us to confirm that the debris disk is located in the equatorial plane of its host star. Second, we use VLTI/VINCI to search for resolved near-infrared emission around the stellar photosphere, which would correspond to the presence of large amounts of hot dust grains located between the sublimation radius and the habitable zone. Our observations reveal a small excess of 0.88%+/-0.12% in K band relative to the photospheric flux. Finally, we use the Keck Interferometer Nuller in order to derive additional constraints on the nature of the resolved infrared emission. Our observations suggest a marginal detection of a circumstellar excess at 10 μm, which we use together with the VINCI detection to model the circumstellar emission. Preliminary results from this modeling effort are discussed.

[more ▼] We present the results of three studies of the Fomalhaut debris disk. First, VLTI/AMBER is used to determine the position angle of the oblate photosphere, and to confirm that the debris disk is in the equatorial plane of its host star. Second, VLTI/VINCI measurements reveal the presence of hot dust in the inner planetary system, producing a small excess of 0.88% ± 0.12% in K band. Finally, KIN observations give additional constraints on the nature of the excess. A marginal circumstellar excess is detected at 10 µm, which we use to model the properties of the exozodiacal disk.

[more ▼] The status of the F. punctata complex in tropical/subtropical America, and more specifically in Cuba and the surrounding area, was partially assessed. Fomitiporia langloisii, Fomitiporia dryophila and Fomitiporia maxonii, three names long considered taxonomic synonyms of F. punctata, are recognized as representing three distinct species that are distinguished from the latter on the basis of morphological, molecular and ecological (biogeographical) data. The three species are described again and their preliminary phylogenetic relationships within Fomitiporia are discussed. Fomitiporia tabaquilio comb. nov. is proposed. The status of Fomitiporia in America and its present circumscription are discussed.

[more ▼] Fomitiporia tenuis sp. nov. and Fomitiporia aethiopica sp. nov. from the Ethiopian highlands are described. Both are characterized by a resupinate habit, globose, dextrinoid basidiospores, cystidioles, and respectively scarcity or absence of hymenial setae. Fomitiporia pseudopunctata and F. robusta are reported also in the same area. The preliminary phylogenetic relationships of F. tenuis, F. aethiopica and F. pseudopunctata are inferred from parsimony analysis based on partial nuclear ribosomal large subunit (nrLSU). A preliminary key to the poroid Hymenochaetales with dextrinoid basidiospores (Fomitiporia, Phellinus s.l., Pseudoinonotus) is proposed.

[more ▼] Le Burkina Faso est le seul pays d’Afrique occidentale dont la législation autorise la gestion cynégétique de la faune par les populations locales. L’opportunité de construire une conservation de la faune servant directement le développement local existe donc. Dans la pratique des choses, il reste cependant encore beaucoup d’étapes à franchir avant que des Zones Villageoises d’Intérêt Cynégétiques (ZOVIC) réellement autonomes et indépendantes financièrement ne prennent corps. La gestion cynégétique villageoise recouvre un ensemble d’enjeux variés et ouvre la porte à de nombreux questionnements : internes à la communauté d’abord, dans son rapport à l’espace et au foncier ; quant au fonctionnement des structures locales de gestion et leur fusion avec le système politique coutumier local ensuite, ainsi que de la réelle volonté de l’univers administratif et privé de la chasse à partager la rente avec les populations locales.

[more ▼] The dual physiological role of the thymus in T cell positive and negative selection appears prominent in the establishment of appropriate host immune defenses. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying those thymic functions begin only to be understood. On the basis of our previous investigations about the thymic expression of different neuroendocrine-related signals, we have advanced a model which transposes at the peptide level the intervention of this primary lymphoid organ in both T cell positive and negative selective processes. There is now ample evidence that the thymic subcapsular and medullary epithelium is the site for synthesis of neurohypophysial (NHP)-related peptides (reviewed in Geenen et al., 1992a). We have also demonstrated that the epithelial component of thymic "nurse" cells (TNC) synthesizes NHP-related peptides and expresses a neuroendocrine-like phenotype (Geenen et al., 1988a). This observation was a remarkable example of the intimate neuroendocrine-immune interactions that take place during T cell ontogeny. Further immunocytochemical analyses have confirmed that one dominant NHP-related epitope belongs to the oxytocin (OT) lineage of the NHP peptide superfamily (Robert et al., 1991, 1992). The intrathymic coexpression of this OT-like epitope with a neurophysin protein domain is a strong argument for a local synthetic process similar to the hypothalamo-NHP one. However, the absence of ir-OT in secretory granules of thymic epithelial cells (TEC), as well as of NHP-related peptides in the supernatant of TEC cultures questioned the application to the thymus of the classical neurosecretory model established for hypothalamic magnocellular neurons (Scharrer [less ▲] Detailed reference viewed: 8 (1 ULg)La fonction de CantorSimons, Laurent Master's dissertation (2009) Ce mémoire est une introduction à l'étude de la bijection de Cantor, bijection entre l'intervalle unité et le carré unité.
