Cardiovascular genetics ,Genome-wide association studies - Abstract
Autosomal genetic analyses of blood lipids have yielded key insights for coronary heart disease (CHD). However, X chromosome genetic variation is understudied for blood lipids in large sample sizes. We now analyze genetic and blood lipid data in a high-coverage whole X chromosome sequencing study of 65,322 multi-ancestry participants and perform replication among 456,893 European participants. Common alleles on chromosome Xq23 are strongly associated with reduced total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides (min P = 8.5 × 10−72), with similar effects for males and females. Chromosome Xq23 lipid-lowering alleles are associated with reduced odds for CHD among 42,545 cases and 591,247 controls (P = 1.7 × 10−4), and reduced odds for diabetes mellitus type 2 among 54,095 cases and 573,885 controls (P = 1.4 × 10−5). Although we observe an association with increased BMI, waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for BMI is reduced, bioimpedance analyses indicate increased gluteofemoral fat, and abdominal MRI analyses indicate reduced visceral adiposity. Co-localization analyses strongly correlate increased CHRDL1 gene expression, particularly in adipose tissue, with reduced concentrations of blood lipids.

This paper brings together the insights of IR constructivism and the study of cultural and informational diplomacy. It argues that the transformation of American foreign policy from a posture of ad hoc internationalism in the 1930s to embedded hegemony in the 1940s can be understood as a transition enabled by a discursive and ideational shift. Furthermore, I argue that cultural and informational diplomacy were key sites within US foreign policy at which this ideational shift was undertaken and contested. I then proceed to chart the evolution of US policies of cultural diplomacy, overseen by the State Department's Division of Cultural Relations and its programs of international information, focusing on the Voice of America radio station. In the course of my survey of the development of these diplomatic programs I take a particular interest in the discursive representation of America as a hegemonic power, and reflect on how Washington's role within the international order was constituted by the figurative practices of narrative, framing, presupposition and propositions about 'self' and 'other.' Surveying these discursive practices within the context of US cultural and informational diplomacy highlights how the claiming of America's authority and historical incumbency to pursue an extensive global role in the post-war period was a self-constitutive practice with important implications for how US foreign relations during the 1930s and 1940s. I note in this context that there was a particularly strong propensity among US cultural and informational officials to situate Washington's approach to cultural and informational diplomacy as a reflection of long-standing domestic political creeds within the US. This discursive tendency in turn led policy-makers to view foreign policy as a basis to vindicate America's domestic political and spiritual creed on a global scale. ..PAT.-Unpublished Manuscript [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

POLLUTION - Abstract
Vertebrates and invertebrates metabolize testosterone to a variety of less-polar derivatives that elicit varying degrees of androgenicityas well as polar elimination products. We have developed a model, using the cladoceran Daphnia magna, with which the ability of xenobiotics to alter steroid hormone metabolism can be assessed and possible physiologic consequences evaluated during a 3-week assay. This model was used to assess the effects of the xenoestrogen 4-nonylphenol on steroid-metabolic processes. Exposure of daphnids to 100 5 g/L 4-nonylphenol for 48 h caused a significant increase in the accumulation of radioactivity derived from [
14 C]testosterone provided to the exposure media. More definitive analyses demonstrated that both 25 and 100 5 g/L 4-nonylphenol disrupted components of the testosterone metabolic pathway that would lead to a decrease in the metabolic elimination of testosterone and an increase in the accumulation of androgenic derivatives. Exposure of daphnids to 100 5 g/L 4-nonylphenol significantly decreased fecundity of the organisms while having no effect on survival of the parental organisms. Comparison of metabolic and reproductive effects of 4-nonylphenol revealed that 71 5 g/L, the reproductive chronic value, would reduce the metabolic elimination of testosterone by approximately 50%. This relationship is consistent withthat which we have reported for other toxicants and identifies a mechanism, in addition to estrogenicity, that may contribute to the reproductive toxicity of this compound.

Increased blood lipid levels are heritable risk factors of cardiovascular disease with varied prevalence worldwide owing to different dietary patterns and medication use 1 . Despite advances in prevention and treatment, in particular through reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels 2 , heart disease remains the leading cause of death worldwide 3 . Genome-wideassociation studies (GWAS) of blood lipid levels have led to important biological and clinical insights, as well as new drug targets, for cardiovascular disease. However, most previous GWAS 4-23 have been conducted in European ancestry populations and may have missed genetic variants that contribute to lipid-level variation in other ancestry groups. These include differences in allele frequencies, effect sizes and linkage-disequilibrium patterns 24 . Here we conduct a multi-ancestry, genome-wide genetic discovery meta-analysis of lipid levels in approximately 1.65 million individuals, including 350,000 of non-European ancestries. We quantify the gain in studying non-European ancestries and provide evidence to support the expansion of recruitment of additional ancestries, even with relatively small sample sizes. We find that increasing diversity rather than studying additional individuals of European ancestry results in substantial improvements in fine-mapping functional variants and portability of polygenic prediction (evaluated in approximately 295,000 individuals from 7 ancestry groupings). Modest gains in the number of discovered loci and ancestry-specific variants were also achieved. As GWAS expand emphasis beyond the identification of genes and fundamental biology towards the use of genetic variants for preventive and precision medicine 25 , we anticipate that increased diversity of participants will lead to more accurate and equitable 26 application of polygenic scores in clinical practice.

- Abstract
Cytochromes P450 are important heme-containing enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of a vast array of endogenous and exogenous compounds, including drugs and carcinogens. One of the more successful approaches to study P450 function involves molecular modeling. Because none of the mammalian P450s have been crystallized, a number of homology models have been constructed based on the structures of known bacterial P450s. Molecular models, generated using molecular replacement or distance geometry methods, can be used to dock substrates and/or inhibitors in the active site to explain various aspects of enzyme function. The majority of modeling research has dealt with enzyme-substrate interactions in the active site. The analysis of these interactions has helped us to better understand the mechanism of P450 catalysis and provided the structural basis for the regio- and stereospecificity of substrate oxidation as well as susceptibility to inhibition or inactivation. The models have been utilized to identify and/or confirm key residues and to rationally interpret experimental data. The alteration in activity in a mutant P450 can be related to changes in enzyme-substrate/inhibitor interactions, such as the removal or appearance of van der Waals overlaps or changes in compound mobility. Homology models can also help to analyze P450-redox partner interactions and identify critical determinants of protein stability. We can expect further development of molecular modeling methods and their increasing contribution into research on P450 function as an integral part of a combined theoretical-experimental approach.

- Abstract
Cytochromes P450 form a very large superfamily of proteins which metabolize substrates from steroids to fatty acids to drugs and are found in organisms from protists to mammals. P450s all appear to take on a similar structural fold, yet frequently having less than 20% sequence identity and having vastly different substrates. Within the structural fold there appears to be a highly conserved core, as determined from the comparison of the structures of the six crystallized, soluble P450s. There are also variable regions which by and large appear to be associated with substrate recognition, substrate binding, and redox partner binding. Molecular dynamics simulations of motion in P450cam and P450BM-3 indicate that substrate binding and product release require substantial motion around the "substrate access channel." Additionally, at the 11th International Conference on Cytochrome P450 Biochemistry, Biophysics, and Molecular Biology and briefly here, the first structure of a microsomal eukaryotic P450 will be presented and compared to the already determined structures by Drs. Johnson and McRee. Finally, with a better understanding of the structure/function relationship of P450s, one will be better able to modify P450s to metabolize the substrates of choice or produce needed valuable chemicals., (Copyright 1999 Academic Press.)

- Abstract
A standardized meal tolerance test (MTT) using 5 g rat chow provides a sensitive index of insulin and glucose metabolism in the insulin-resistant, hyperinsulinemic, hypertriglyceridemic, and atherosclerosis-prone JCR:LA-corpulent (cp) strain of rats. The MTT revealed differences in insulin/glucose metabolism that were not evident in either an intravenous (IVGTT) or intraperitoneal (IPGTT) glucose tolerance test. The glycemic response of control rats to a 5-g carbohydrate test meal containing miglitol (Bay m1099) was sharply reduced, with a 50% effective dose (ED50) of 36.4 +/- 7.5 mg/100 g food. At a dose of 60 mg/100 g food, the plasma glucose curve was flat and indistinguishable from that found in the nonfed state. The plasma insulin response was similarly reduced, with an ED50 of 42.8 +/- 14.8 mg/100 g food. Obese male rats were treated with miglitol at 60 mg/100 g food from 6 to 12 weeks of age. Treated rats had a significantly reduced food consumption and lower body weight at 12 weeks of age (P < .05). The treatment resulted in no significant changes in serum lipid concentrations. When subjected to the MTT using control (non-miglitol-containing) food, treated rats demonstrated markedly improved insulin sensitivity, with a greatly reduced insulin response, which may reflect an improved hepatic glucose metabolism. The results confirm that miglitol is highly effective in this obese insulin-resistant animal model. It reduced postprandial glycemic and insulin responses, and on long-term treatment, it improved glucose and insulin metabolism. These beneficial metabolic changes suggest that miglitol may have vascular protective effects in insulin-resistant states.

- Abstract
The JCR:LA-cp rat is one of a number of strains that carry the mutant autosomal recessive cp gene. Animals, of all strains, that are homozygous, for the gene (cp/cp) become obese, insulin resistant, and hypertriglyceridemic. Heterozygotes or homozygous normal rats (+/+) are lean and metabolically normal. The JCR:LA-cp rat is unique in the development of a frank vasculopathy with atherosclerotic lesions and associated ischemic myocardial lesions. The cardiovascular disease is strongly correlated with the hyperinsulinemia, which develops as the animals mature from 4 to 8 weeks of age. The hyperinsulinemia can be decreased by marked food restriction, ethanol consumption, or reduction of the postprandial glucose and insulin responses through the use of alpha-glucosidase inhibitors. Any treatment that reduces plasma insulin levels is associated with a reduction in cardiovascular disease. In contrast, a reduction in plasma triglyceride concentrations, alone, has no effect on end-stage lesions. JCR:LA-cp rats, particularly those that are cp/cp, are, however, sensitive to cholesterol in the diet, unlike other strains that are highly resistant. Further, the rats have abnormal vascular smooth muscle cells that, especially in the cp/cp animals, are hyperplastic and activated and migrate into the intimal space. Our findings suggest that susceptibility to cardiovascular disease requires hypermsulinemic stress coupled with excessive dietary intake and the presence of one or more other necessary, but not sufficient, genetic factors. One of these may be a genetic abnormality of vascular smooth muscle cells. A similar situation may occur in humans.

- Abstract
Studies were performed to test the hypothesis that the stress response is exaggerated in obesity and to identify which component of the response is modified. Chronically cannulated lean (+/+) and obese (cp/cp) JCR:LA rats were subjected to mild restraint stress for 15 minutes. Blood pressure and serum glucose, insulin, and corticosterone responses did not differ significantly between genotypes before, during, or after restraint. Lean rats had a significantly greater plasma epinephrine (EPI) response but a similar norepinephrine (NE) response compared with obese rats. Serum nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA) concentrations were unchanged in lean rats, but increased from 0.86 to a mean of 1.48 mmol/L in obese rats within 10 minutes of restraint. All animals recovered to prestress values by 45 minutes postrestraint. In obese rats, handling increased NEFAs to greater than 2 mmol/L before or at 165 minutes after restraint. In lean rats, NEFAs increased when handling occurred at 165 minutes after restraint, but there was no significant NEFA response at the prerestraint point. The sensitivity of adipose tissue to NE-induced lipolysis was not significantly different between genotypes. It is concluded that the exaggerated accumulation of NEFAs in the blood of obese rats results from increased adipose tissue mass. These increases in NEFAs in obese rats resulting from mild stress reached levels normally associated with gross pathology such as ketotic diabetes.

- Abstract
Cytochromes P450 comprise a very large superfamily of hemeproteins which generally monooxygenate hydrophobic compounds. P450s appear to have a common conserved structural core, yet are variable in regions involved in substrate recognition and binding, and in redox-partner binding. These differences can be identified by an analysis in which structural alignments and homology models are used to compare the various classes and families of P450s.

- Abstract
The JCR:LA-cp rat is a unique strain that, if homozygous for the autosomal recessive cp gene, is obese and exhibits the metabolic syndrome of insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, and hypertriglyceridemia. Obese male rats spontaneously develop advanced atherosclerosis and ischemic myocardial lesions. The angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, captopril, was administered to obese rats at 30 mg/kg body weight from 6 to 39 weeks of age. There were no significant changes in food consumption or body weights of the treated animals. Insulin sensitivity was not improved. Plasma insulin levels were unaltered, but the volume density of the islets of Langerhans was halved, reflecting both reduced hyperplasia and a more normal islet structure. Triglyceride concentrations were not reduced, but unesterified cholesterol and cholesteryl esters decreased by 50% and 34%, respectively (p < 0.01). The impaired nitric oxide-mediated vascular relaxation of the obese rats was not improved, and the relaxant sensitivity to acetylcholine as indicated by the median effective concentration (EC50) was reduced. In vitro, captopril significantly reduced the basal tension of aortic rings from untreated rats, antagonized the contractile effects of norepinephrine, and induced complete relaxation of the contraction in response to 10(-7) M norepinephrine. The severity of spontaneous, raised atherosclerotic lesions of the aortic arch at age 39 weeks was not significantly decreased by captopril treatment. In contrast, the frequency of ischemic myocardial lesions was reduced by 78% (p < 0.01). The protective effects of captopril on the heart and pancreas in this animal model of type II diabetes and atherosclerosis are probably the result of its bradykinin-enhancing effects.

- Abstract
The ability of nonylphenol polyethoxylate (nonylphenyl polyethylene glycol, NPPG) to alter the metabolic elimination of testosterone and elicit reproductive toxicity to Daphnia magna was assessed. NPPG (5.0 mg/liter) inhibited the elimination of testosterone as glucose and sulfate conjugates, but had minimal effect on the rate of elimination of oxido-reduced and hydroxylated derivatives of the steroid hormone. This exposure concentration of NPPG also approximated the acute threshold-effect concentration and the chronic value for daphnids. Results demonstrated that NPPG qualitatively elicits similar effects on the metabolic elimination of testosterone by daphnids as previously characterized with its degradation product 4-nonylphenol. Unlike 4-nonylphenol, significant chronic toxicity of NPPG, due to effects on steroid elimination processes, was not evident. Results from the present study provide no indication that concentrations of nonylphenol polyethoxylates typically measured in the environment pose a risk of chronic toxicity to invertebrates.

- Abstract
The evaluation of a novel assay that allows simultaneous testing for hepatitis B e antigen and its antibody in a single well is described. The results of routine application and sequential studies on patients with acute hepatitis B and chronic hepatitis B treated with interferon are presented. The specificity and sensitivity of the assay and its ability to be used to follow the response of a patient during the whole seroconversion episode has been evaluated. The assay proved to give useful information about the reactivity of the sample, especially in those patients who were changing their "e" status.

- Abstract
The JCR:LA-cp rat exhibits the obesity/insulin resistance/hypertriglyceridemia syndrome in an extreme form. These normotensive rats spontaneously develop advanced atherosclerosis and ischemic myocardial lesions. The calcium channel antagonist, nisoldipine, was administered to obese rats of the JCR:LA-cp strain in drinking water at a dose of 1 mg/kg from age 6 weeks. Nisoldipine-treated rats showed no change in food consumption or body weight compared with control animals. Plasma glucose and insulin levels also were unchanged in the nisoldipine-treated rats. Insulin-mediated total glucose turnover, an index of insulin sensitivity as measured by euglycemic insulin clamp, was similarly not improved. Serum triglyceride levels in obese male rats were markedly reduced (57%; p < 0.001, at age 12 weeks), whereas obese female rats showed no significant change in triglyceride levels and an increase in esterified cholesterol in response to nisoldipine treatment. The impaired endothelium-dependent (nitric oxide-mediated) vascular relaxation of the male cp/cp rats was not improved by nisoldipine treatment. The severity of atherosclerotic raised lesions in the aortic arch of male cp/cp rats was significantly reduced (p < 0.01) by nisoldipine treatment, and this was accompanied by a major reduction in the incidence of ischemic myocardial lesions (85%; p < 0.01). Thus nisoldipine treatment ameliorates atherosclerotic damage and myocardial injury even in the presence of gross obesity, hyperinsulinemia, and significant hyperlipidemia. This effect appears to involve protection of the vascular wall from atherogenesis and probably antivasocontractile effects at the smooth muscle level as well.

- Abstract
The JCR:LA-cp rat is obese, insulin resistant, and hypertriglyceridemic. The obese male rats spontaneously develop atherosclerosis and ischemic myocardial lesions that are prevented by treatment with the calcium channel antagonist, nifedipine. Male and female JCR:LA-cp rats were treated with the calcium channel antagonist, diltiazem, and a closely related compound, clentiazem (at 30 mg/kg). Clentiazem, but not diltiazem, caused a significant increase in body weight of both sexes in the presence of decreased food consumption. Serum triacylglycerols were decreased by half by both drugs in male rats only, reflecting decreased very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) secretion. Females did not respond with lower concentrations of triacylglycerol (although VLDL secretion rate was decreased) and showed increased concentrations of cholesterol in the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) fraction. Diltiazem-treated male rats showed decreased VLDL particle size, together with a shift to shorter-chain fatty acids in the triacylglycerols. This effect was not seen with clentiazem treatment. There was no effect on insulin and glucose metabolism in these insulin-resistant animals. Calcium channel antagonists have complex metabolic effects in the hypertriglyceridemic rats, with highly beneficial hypolipidemic effects in the males that are not seen in the females. The sexual dimorphism of these responses is sex linked, but appears not to be due to the steroid sex hormones. These results suggest caution in the chronic treatment of human females with these agents and the importance of detailed human studies in females and individuals with the insulin-resistant/hypertriglyceridemic/obese syndrome.

- Abstract
Atherosclerosis-prone, insulin-resistant JCR:LA-cp male rats were treated from 6 weeks to 39 weeks of age with beta,beta'-tetramethylhexadecanedioic acid (MEDICA 16). Body weights were reduced (13%, P < .001) at 36 weeks without any accompanying decrease in food consumption. The treatment did not cause any significant change in plasma glucose or fasting insulin concentrations. There was a significant decrease in the extreme hyperplasia of the islets of Langerhans (38%, P < .05). The marked VLDL hypertriglyceridemia was decreased by 70% (P < .001), with an accompanying significant reduction in cholesterol concentrations. The severity of raised atherosclerotic lesions on the aortic arch was very markedly reduced (P < .01) in treated rats. This was accompanied by a reduction (P < .01) in the incidence of ischemic myocardial lesions. We conclude that long-term (33 weeks) MEDICA 16 treatment of an animal model for the obesity/insulin-resistant/hyperlipidemic syndrome not only markedly improved lipid metabolism, but also inhibited the development of advanced cardiovascular disease.

- Abstract
Premature babies are capable of seeking contact with a source of rhythmic stimulation that reflects their own breathing rhythm. Optional stimulation, in the form of a "breathing" stuffed bear, was made available to premature infants, 32 to 35 weeks' gestational age. The bear's breathing rate was matched to that of each individual infant during quiet sleep. Other infants were exposed to a bear that did not breathe, and some infants were not exposed to a bear. All infants were monitored continuously using time-lapse video. After 2 to 3 weeks' exposure, those infants with a breathing bear showed significantly more contact with their head, body, or limbs than either of the control groups (for the no-bear group, contact with the area that would have been occupied by the bear was determined to describe the contact that might have been expected by chance). In addition, the infants given the opportunity to self-regulate their stimulation showed greater amounts of quiet sleep than the other two groups.
