Einfluß antianaphylaktisch wirkender Stoffe auf die Antikörperproduktion

Summary To produce antisera of high antibody concentration animals after sensitization with protein have been reinjected with lethal doses of the antigen, protected against the shock-effect by substances with antihistamin properties (as example Antistin). The antibody concentration was considerably higher in these animals as in the other non-protected group reinjected with the highest tolerated antigen dosage.     

Asa Issie, Aramis and the origin of Australopithecus

The origin of Australopithecus, the genus widely interpreted as ancestral to Homo, is a central problem in human evolutionary studies. Australopithecus species differ markedly from extant African apes and candidate ancestral hominids such as Ardipithecus, Orrorin and Sahelanthropus. The earliest described Australopithecus species is Au. anamensis, the probable chronospecies ancestor of Au. afarensis. Here we describe newly discovered fossils from the Middle Awash study area that extend the known Au. anamensis range into northeastern Ethiopia. The new fossils are from chronometrically controlled stratigraphic sequences and date to about 4.1-4.2 million years ago. They include diagnostic craniodental remains, the largest hominid canine yet recovered, and the earliest Australopithecus femur. These new fossils are sampled from a woodland context. Temporal and anatomical intermediacy between Ar. ramidus and Au. afarensis suggest a relatively rapid shift from Ardipithecus to Australopithecus in this region of Africa, involving either replacement or accelerated phyletic evolution.

A Teleonic Management Framework for Organizations

The hierarchical organization (HO) that has provided the prevailing model for business management for most of this century has been challenged repeatedly during the last 20 to 30 years. Matrix Management (MM), Total Quality Management (TQM), and Business Process Reengineering (BPR) are just three in the long line of approaches that have been suggested to remedy some of the problems with HO. Although these approaches have showed great promise, they either have been abandoned (MM), are on their way out (TQM), or are experiencing serious problems (BPR) in a large number of organizations that have tried to implement them. Yet many of these organizations have managed to make these approaches work. It is suggested in this paper that the main reasons for the failures do not lie in the models themselves, each of which have considerable merits, but in the absence of an overall theoretical framework, within which the various models could be validated and amalgamated. The authors are of the opinion that teleonics (proposed by Járos and Cloete, 1987) could serve as the basis for such a framework, which could thus be called the Teleonic Management Framework (TMF).     

SiC纤维（Nicalon）增强玻璃陶瓷的蠕变行为

考察了文题材料的蠕变行为，发现其以取决于所施加的应力与温度而出现的蠕变第一、第二、第三阶段为特征。蠕变过程中出现的主要结构变化为纤维重排、富碳界面层的氧化以及基质中晶体的生长。虽然复合材料的受力极限取决于残余玻璃相，但纤维的引入使得材料的热机械性能得以大幅度地提高。     

Cytosolic pH regulates root water transport during anoxic stress through gating of aquaporins

Flooding of soils results in acute oxygen deprivation (anoxia) of plant roots during winter in temperate latitudes, or after irrigation, and is a major problem for agriculture. One early response of plants to anoxia and other environmental stresses is downregulation of water uptake due to inhibition of the water permeability (hydraulic conductivity) of roots (Lp(r)). Root water uptake is mediated largely by water channel proteins (aquaporins) of the plasma membrane intrinsic protein (PIP) subgroup. These aquaporins may mediate stress-induced inhibition of Lp(r) but the mechanisms involved are unknown. Here we delineate the whole-root and cell bases for inhibition of water uptake by anoxia and link them to cytosol acidosis. We also uncover a molecular mechanism for aquaporin gating by cytosolic pH. Because it is conserved in all PIPs, this mechanism provides a basis for explaining the inhibition of Lp(r) by anoxia and possibly other stresses. More generally, our work opens new routes to explore pH-dependent cell signalling processes leading to regulation of water transport in plant tissues or in animal epithelia.     

Deficiency in short-chain fatty acid beta-oxidation affects theta oscillations during sleep

In rodents, the electroencephalogram (EEG) during paradoxical sleep and exploratory behavior is characterized by theta oscillations. Here we show that a deficiency in short-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase (encoded by Acads) in mice causes a marked slowing in theta frequency during paradoxical sleep only. We found Acads expression in brain regions involved in theta generation, notably the hippocampus. Microarray analysis of gene expression in mice with mutations in Acads indicates overexpression of Glo1 (encoding glyoxylase 1), a gene involved in the detoxification of metabolic by-products. Administration of acetyl-L-carnitine (ALCAR) to mutant mice significantly recovers slow theta and Glo1 overexpression. Thus, an underappreciated metabolic pathway involving fatty acid beta-oxidation also regulates theta oscillations during sleep.
