Abstract

We describe the Phase II HapMap, which characterizes over 3.1 million human single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) genotyped in 270 individuals from four geographically diverse populations and includes 25-35% of common SNP variation in the populations surveyed. The map is estimated to capture untyped common variation with an average maximum r 2 of between 0.9 and 0.96 depending on population. We demonstrate that the current generation of commercial genome-wide genotyping products captures common Phase II SNPs with an average maximum r 2 of up to 0.8 in African and up to 0.95 in non-African populations, and that potential gains in power in association studies can be obtained through imputation. These data also reveal novel aspects of the structure of linkage disequilibrium. We show that 10-30% of pairs of individuals within a population share at least one region of extended genetic identity arising from recent ancestry and that up to 1% of all common variants are untaggable, primarily because they lie within recombination hotspots. We show that recombination rates vary systematically around genes and between genes of different function. Finally, we demonstrate increased differentiation at non-synonymous, compared to synonymous, SNPs, resulting from systematic differences in the strength or efficacy of natural selection between populations. ©2007 Nature Publishing Group., link_to_OA_fulltext

Abstract

Cefodizime has previously been shown to possess a number of immunomodulating properties in vivo and in vitro using several different test systems. Since most in vitro studies have been performed with cells from normal individuals, we first investigated whether cells from chronic renal failure patients would respond in vitro to cefodizime in the same way as healthy subjects. Subsequently, we investigated the effect of cefodizime (10 g over 10 days in 2-g doses) on phagocyte function ex vivo in an open study of 26 chronic renal failure patients and 16 healthy subjects. Polymorphonuclear leukocytes were tested for their ability to polarize in response to cefodizime and/or f-met-leu-phe peptide. Polymorphonuclear leukocytes and monocytes were tested for their ability to produce chemiluminescence on stimulation with either phagocytic (zymosan) or soluble phorbol myristate acetate stimuli. Phagocyte and lymphocyte membrane receptor expression was compared after exposure to cefodizime. Exposure to cefodizime in vitro causes a significant increase in polarization of polymorphonuclear leukocytes from both normal individuals and renal failure patients (both P0.001). It also caused increased chemotaxis and chemokinesis in a modified Boyden chamber assay. Cefodizime did not affect lucigenin-enhanced chemiluminescence and there were only minor effects on cell membrane antigen levels. In the ex vivo study there was a significant increase in polymorphonuclear leukocyte polarization (P0.001) attributable to cefodizime, but other investigations showed no significant differences. The results suggest that cefodizime may act as a mild priming agent for some functions, particularly chemotaxis.

Abstract

With the advent of dense maps of human genetic variation, it is now possible to detect positive natural selection across the human genome. Here we report an analysis of over 3 million polymorphisms from the International HapMap Project Phase 2 (HapMap2). We used 'long-range haplotype' methods, which were developed to identify alleles segregating in a population that have undergone recent selection, and we also developed new methods that are based on cross-population comparisons to discover alleles that have swept to near-fixation within a population. The analysis reveals more than 300 strong candidate regions. Focusing on the strongest 22 regions, we develop a heuristic for scrutinizing these regions to identify candidate targets of selection. In a complementary analysis, we identify 26 non-synonymous, coding, single nucleotide polymorphisms showing regional evidence of positive selection. Examination of these candidates highlights three cases in which two genes in a common biological process have apparently undergone positive selection in the same population:LARGE and DMD, both related to infection by the Lassa virus, in West Africa;SLC24A5 and SLC45A2, both involved in skin pigmentation, in Europe; and EDAR and EDA2R, both involved in development of hair follicles, in Asia. ©2007 Nature Publishing Group., link_to_OA_fulltext

Abstract

SUMMARY The use of the heated hypertonic saline-propylene glycol aerosol technique for artificial induction of sputum in patients with pneumonia whose cough is nonproductive offers a valuable aid in management. The method is simple, harmless and easily adaptable to bedside use. Reliable early identification of the causative organism is usually possible. Treatment on a sound bacteriologic basis can then replace educated guesswork in the selection of the antimicrobial therapy to be employed. Experience with this method in 15 patients with pneumonia who were unable to produce sputum voluntarily is presented. In 13 of these cases (87 per cent), a bacteriologic diagnosis was possible. The remaining two cases were of apparent viral etiology. No complication of the technique in this group of acutely ill patients was encountered.
