A concentration dependent stimulation of microsomal BaP rronoo.ylienase activity

The interactinn between trace metals .nd polycyclic acronutic hydrocaibons

The pmnnaW period of life is a critical time for the quantitative and qualitative
development of marosomal monoosygenases, and earlier observations suggest that

Primary fetal ral hepatocytes in c.Nve display difkrenl monoosy`enase activities

106 patients from 1 d families manifesting hereditary breast cancer syndn mes and of
117 affected patients from 20 families manifesting nonpolyposis herednar) colon can-
ea was evaluated Findings were compared with the American Cdkae of Surgeons
(ACS) long-Ierm audits for breast and colon cancer respectively. The cardinal features
of hereditary cancer were observed within the study troup, inchdin6:/ I) a sianificant

SARCOMA VIRUSES
Whik rabbit cells have been widely used for isolation and replication of a variety
uf rarovirusca, Ihey have sekkrm been used for Iransformaliun studies with rmrirse
sarcrxna viruses (MSV). In this prper, hnwever, neoplaslic transforsssNion of rabbit
cells by Kasten MSV (Ki-MSV), the Ki-MSV pseudolyp: of baboon endo`enan
virus (Ki-MSV lHa1:V/) and the Mrrknsey-MSV PseudnlyFe of feline kukemia virus
(M-MSV jFc1.V /) is rcprrted Rabbit cells can be readily transformed by KiMSV, Ki-
MSVI H.EV ) anJ M-MS V( FeI.V ). Rabbit cells transforsned by Ki-MSV and M-MSV-
(Fe1.V) were found to be virus poducen, whereas those traesforsncd by
Ki-MSV(BsEV) were wonproducen (NP). The NP cells were obtained by simply
infecting rabbit cells with Ki-MSV(HaEV) and subesdturing the infected cells. AI-
dwwgh the nrnpholo`ically aitered NPcefls did wa produce infectious virus or murine
leukemia v'aus aetisen, they did contain a rescuable MSV genome. All of the lrrss-
formed cells frwmed c.rlrsnks in soft agr. grew b Aigh saturation densities and po
duced tunuxs when transplanted into nude mice. This report is the first one of
successful tumer induction by virus-Iransforsned rabbit cells. The ability to produce
sarcomas in rabbits by Ki-MSV and M-MSVIFeLV)-transfamsed cells should provide
useful additional model for studying ehemolinrrawrotherapyy as well as imnnwso-
pevention of rabbit cancers.

PRO7F.OLYTIC ENZYMES AND THEIR ACTIVE-SIIE-SPECIFIC
INHIBITORS: ROIE IN THE TREATMENT OF DISEASE
Proleases (prolein-hydrnlyzing enzyrnn or Inotedytic enzymes; have been
known for ova 100 yesrs since trypin was firsl isolred from pancrc,Mic juice by
KiNne. Fur most of the perird since their discovery, praleases were thuu6ht to be
involved only in digestion. Ilrrwever, in the lasl decsde, proleases have bbxn shown to
be involved in many other impottanl physiological pmcesses, such as fertilization,
cos6ula/inn, and the immune response. Outside of their normal envinamcnl, pro-
kases can be estremely destructive, but natwal human plasma inhibitors inhibit most
pnneases that escape. Imbalance in pnNesse-pnNease inhibitor systems :an lead Ns a

ENZYMATIC OXIDATION OF ALPHA- I -PROTEINASE INHIBITOR IN
ABNORMAL TISSUE TURNOVER
This review paper describes ptsem knowledge with regard to the interaction of
alPha-l-pdcinase inhibitor (a,-PI) and myeknperonidase in rirro. using both puiftod
cnzyme and pAymowphawckar kukocytcs as study souces. In the first place. a,-PI
was found so contain a methionyl residue a1 i1s readive cenler which was sensilive to
oxidation by either N-chkxosuccinimide or by enzymatic oaidMiuw. Chemical o.ida-
tiow revealed thM two of the eight rnethio.yl residues present in the molecule were
osidrzod, one of which was at the reactive cenler. Subseque.tly, it was found that the
enzymatic oxidation by myeloperosidase rran neulrophil `rarwh:s, M the presence of
hydrogen peroxide and halide iow, could also be easily Muined. Since mycloperox-
idase is present in the same grswks which contain proleolytie en:rmes. it would be
expected that both types of en:ymes would be tekased sinwlta.eously during either
Ohagocyloais or cell twwover. h is worth noting dtM the rayelapemaidase system does
not osiM:e a inaclivre nwsl other proacinae inhisilors or proteMases. In the second
~
place, it was shows rncen/ly that when a; PI was eapssod 1o viabk neutrophils in the
presence of chloride ion ad phorbol myrislyl atetMe, the abiMiy of a; PI to bind
eksstase was diminished. However. when myckipero.idase-deGcient ceRs or those
horn patients with chronic 6rrwlomatun disease were tned,lhere was so effect on
a; PI activity, indicating 1he involvement of myeloperoaidase and hydrogen peroxide
in a; Pt inactivation. More recenlly, oxidized a,-PI has beett isolated fran rUcumaoid
qrnwrial fluid of arthritic patients aed also fran hrnR lavage fluidsof smokers. Appna-
inuuly four methionyl residues were fouad to be oxidized in either case. compared to
two oxidized residues when ntlive a; PI was lreated with either chemical or e.zymYi-
caBy produced oaidaMs. The itdicMinn is, tht:refotee,llw oxidative inactivalion of a;

PLATFtFTS INCREASE NEUTROPIIIL ADHERENCE IN VlTRO TO NYLON
FIHIR
Inlera[tNM of neutrophils with platelets is a common phenornenon that may be
impxtant in the patlwisencsts of various diseases. Although platelets are known to
have a saun6 a/hmty for (oreign artaces, their effect on the measured adherence of
neutrrrf+hils in Ihc commonly used nylon fiber systems had not boen detennined.
Thercfoue, in the study reported here, the effect of platelets on the adherence of
neulmphils to nylnn fiber was assessed in whole blood samples and purified neutniphil
suspensions in the presence or absence of ptauna. Measurements showed that in whole
blood sampfes, increasing nrn+bess otphftIda were associated with increasing adher-
ence of neutrophds. Addition of ptMelets in plasma 1o purified neutrophil suspensions
incrcascd (a<O 05) neutrophil adeseace from 76.2% 2 1.4 to 88.0% ± 2.0. Simi-
larly, addr/ion u/ washed platelets wihoaM pl.seu also increased (y<0 05) neuu'ophil
adhetencefrontA7.9% s 3.8 (widnrtaddedplalekts)to94.2% ± 1.6(withK10,000
plalekts/mm' added). In cowtr.st,.o wRmentrion of ttetttruphil adhereace occurred
if platelets had their auregwiow tespowse suppressed by pretuewing platelet dnmws
with aspirin. Scanning ekctron microscopy supponed these findings by showing plate-
lets in close association with weutrophib adhering to sylon fiber. These findings
emphasi:e the impanance of platelet wutnben and reactivity on tAe adherence of
neuuslphils.

A NOVEL MECIIANISM FOR PULMONARY OXYGEN TOXIC(1'Y:
PIIAGOCYTE MEDIATED LUNG INJURY 0
In initial studies, a significant increase in the number of polrm«pMowckr
kukocytes (PMN) in the alveolar lavages of rats esposed to hypctosia for three days
was noted. 'flThis observation led to two hypntheses. The first hypothesis. thal hyperosia,
causes injury to alveolar macrophases (AM), inducing their rekase of chernotactie
(actnn which recruit PMNs 1o the IunR, was supported by evidence that:ll) hyperosia
damages AM in rrvo and in ritro, and (2) ehemotactic factors from alveolar lavages ar

ra pulrn.rry ua ygcn aurc Ny, was supptxted by the finding that the degree of endtMhe-
hd darnagc ~as highly u.+clred wnh the numbcn of PMNs rccovcred in alveolar
IavaRt% in twrh neuurq+hil sulhcrcnt and ncutnipcnK rabMls. However. two major
unknowns slill remain. First, how ducs hypcroaia damage AM? Seaud, how do
PMNs damage enduthcltum? At this time, a rtasonabk working hypothesis is that the
damage in each case is due lo the fiwmalion of oay6en radicals, particularly the highly
reactivc hydroayl radicals. Improved understanding of the nsk of AM. PMN and
hydrosyl radical in lung damage due lo hyperosia will be important in elucidating basic
mechanisms involved in the p.lhosenesis of pulmonary oaygen loxicity, as well as in
other types of environmental lung injury.

the development of aduh respralory disUess syndrome IARDS), the mou common

makin6 it prssrbk frK ctllulu or humoral components to contribute to endothelial
injwy. A number of recent observanions suggest that neutrophils cuntnbutc to the
devewoprnent of edematous luns injury. Firsl, increased numbers of ncwnh+hils are
c,xrumrnly found in lunt lavages of patients with ARDS and early in their illness.

CYT(AYIALASIN B
Cyuxhalasin 8, a fungal metabdile that can alles cell shapes and inhibit a wide

be abk to reduce the nctwoMic struclure o( actin filaments. 10 this cotrwrxmicrion,
additional evidence is presented that cylochalasin B shortens aclin filaments and that
this shortening takes place without aet dcpnlymerization. Overall, the work done here
showed that cytochalasin 8 decreased the Bow birefringence and S., and increased the
estinctinn angle of actin 6lamencs in salt sohuinws favoring polytneriztlioe of the
prneia. These changes occurred without a deKclabk increase in the equilibriuns actin

observations indicating that eytochalasit B shortetn actin filaments without .et de-

accounts row the marked effect of cywchdasia B jtt dissoFving the Sel stnrcture of F-

this cortical cytoplasm consists primarily of filamentous tsulerid, and thMAbe 61a-

meshwork iw which the filaments intersect or overlap at random intervals. Myosin

containing particks, reqnired fresh normal serum and did not occur when serum was

NICOTINE BINDING SITES AND TIIEIR LOCALITATION IN THE CENTRAL
NERV(x1S SYSTEM
The study of nicotine binding in the brain, which was plagued with Probktta
during earlicr investiaatirun. has been helped greatq by the development of a method
of obtaining the unnatural ( f)isortxr optically pure and by the refined synthesis of
radiolabekd nicotine with high specific activity. The actions of the slereoisomen of
nicotine on the central nervous system are audiW ively similar in mosllests bu1( -)-
nicotine is mae potent than the unaatunl (+}isomcr by at least 10-fold. Binding of
sadiolabeiod nicotine to brain has both saturable and nonsatrrrabk compooeats. Only
saturable binding is affected by incubrion cowditions such as time, tcmperatwe. PH
and ion cuncentration. Escess concentrations of the sleredsomers are eyually effective
in displacing ( - )-l'HInicotine from brain homogenates. Neverthekss, a direct can-
p.rison rr( (+)/'11) aicotine and (-)-1 *11-nkaine binding shows that the latter has a
K, thnee times bwer than the forsner. (-11~11nicoline is bound to the greatest de`ree
; in hypothalamus and hippocampus, ase.u that also eshibit the must stere oselectivily for
nicotine Ibwever, differences in the binding affinities of the Iwo uor sers arc fr less
than the pharmacological stereospocificily observed.

The literawre suggests 1hN nicotine binds b neurond tissue, but the nature and
significance of Ih/s buWuK are in question. In this study of nicotine butdsng, the
bindingof /'II IniuMine to snouse brain was meastued and subscqueatly comparcd with
the binding of l'lla-bungarolosin (a-BTX) and L-I'11) quiwclidinyl bentilale
(QNB). The binding of nicotine was saturabk, revenibk and stereospecific. The
averase K, and B,,, were S9 aM and Ita fnwrks(etR of protei., respectively. ANhough
the ra/es of association and dissnciaion of nicotine were temperaUredependenl, the
incubation tcmpcraure had no efkcl on either K, or B_ When measured at 2a' or 3T,
nicotine appeared to bind b a single class of binding siles, but a second, very low-
afhnity, binding site was observed at 1'. Nicoaine binding was unaffected by the
addilion of NaC'1, KC.'1, C.CI or MgSO,1o the incubation medium. Nicotine cho-
hnntic a6neists wcre Puteno inhibitors of nicotine binding: however, nicaine rMago-
Msls were poor mh/biaxs. The regional dtsurbulion of binding was not uniform:
rnw/hratn and sniatum contained the highest number of receplors, whereas cerebellum
had the fewest When nicotine, a-BTX, and QNB binding were compared in seveal
ways, results indicated that ell tlttee li6ads label choli"ie sites, but these sites differ
from nne another. Differences in site densilies, regional distribulion, inhibilor poten-
cies, and thetmal denahrNion iwdicalod that nicoune binding was no/ the same as
either QNB or a-BTX binding, and drcrefore that tccePlort fa nicotine may represent
a.niaNse population of choiinesRic seceptas.

imide on brsia protein synthesn were esamined in an attempt to determine whether the
nicotine-induced rcvenal of the arnnestrc effect of cyckrhesrmide is due to an interac-
tirm between nicotine and eyck,hestmide on brain protein synthesis, aed whether it
involves the sNes in brain that saturably bind 1'HNticoline. Results showed that nicotine
did nor reverse the cycknAesimide-induced inhibition of protein synthesis, both in vivo
(intact aainul) and in vitro (bra/n dices), suggesting that on-going protein synthesis is
not nocessarily invdved in mernory consolidation. Also, the nicotine binding sites
were not affected by In rivo or in vitro treatment with cyckshesimide either in the

ENZYMATIC PROPERTIES OF HUMAN GI-UCURONYLT:2ANSFERASE
AND A SENSITIVE METHOD FUR ITS ASSAY IN A STABLE 8
LYMPIKICYTE CELL UNE
UDP-6lucuronyltransferases are membrane-bound enzymes located chie/ly in the
endoplasmic reticulum of cells and arc responsible for the conjuption of endornous
and aenubidic substances contsining hydiosyl, amaro, thiol, or erboaylie functional
groups. Although 1he.e is much interest in huma thKUmnyNra.skrases, eauensive
studies af them have been hampered by difficulties associated with procurement of
sufficient quantities of fresh human cells. This repart, however, dennoastraes that a
prolific stable cell line, such as SNIW6, capable of yielding billions of cells ecald be
used for such studies. IlomogenMes of SNKI06 cells have been studied. A sensitive
assay procedure for lymphocyte ghrcwo.yltranskrase was developed utilizing sadio-
aclive leaouerone as the acceptor substance and TLC for seprnioa of the melabdNe.
The mctlwd is capable of desectiwll pcomolr quantities of the product. The enzyme
activity ednbited a hroad P11 oplimwe, and was subject to aclivMioe by the deterSaM
l.ubml W X and Mn ions. The rtivity confonned 1o the Michaelis-Meaen kiwaica
giving apparent K. values of 0.8 adN and 11 µM, for UOPGA and testoaeso.e,
seapectively..-MeWyhrmbenaerone, a-.apMhol and P-niuophenol behaved as oa.-
p:titive inhibitors of tessoaaoae glucwonidrion. The sesuMs preseMOd in this ppa

SUBSTRATE SPECIFICI7Y OF HUMAN UOP~',LUCURONYLTRANSFFRASE
IN CULTURED LYMPHOCYTES
Human lymphocytes possess `hrcuweyMraesferare activity with a btod rase of

ghicuronykransferase were pudied, and aclivily for the following substances was
doerweenied: testostemee, estaadiol. PLenolpMhakM. u-napMhol.1-mefthumbelli-
feronc and o-nitsopAend. As has bee. nded before. e-n.pFwhd is regarded as a model
aSlycone for dse form of khicwonyNransferse which erdyses ghrcuronidrion of the
less bulky nonakroidal srbstratcs, and leswsterowe as that for 1he steroidal qlycones.
The results show that humr lymphocytes possess tArcuronyhransferase activity for
both types of allycone. Within IimilNiaa of work with crude hamokennes sad 60

K-regiow srunz-dihydtodiols we importsnl metabolites of polycyclic aromalic

primarily formed reee osides. The K-region Laiu-dihydrodiols we usually synthe-
siztd by steteosekctive reduction of the easespondinS o-quinones with aMnpka metal
hydr.des such as hUiutn duminum hydride. When fust attempts were made to use
sodium or potassium borohydndc in methaail or ethanol (or the reduction of Kre6ion
o qutnones, they were not very successful. Also, the use of dilferent reaction limes and
temperatures. diffcrent nlHn of the rcactrNs, and different solvents did not improve
..
the results substanually. However, it was finally found that polycychc o-quinones can
be n.nveni!nlly reduced to the carsesp>n<lin6 nonz-drhydrodiols by carrying oul Ihe
reduclion with burohydrxks in the presence of osy6en. The nde nQ osy`en is the
reduction may be rationalized by a mechanism presented in this paper. As a resall of
the reduction-osidatwa cycle thu takes place whee osy6eo is availabk, pure trans-
dihydrodinl accumulates so thal it can be isolated in high yield. This new mahod of
te+ducins K-regrm oyuinones ;and dso the corresponding odiphenols and their ace
tresl derived (rom polycyclic arenes represents a significant improvement of the
synlhesis of K-re6iort nansdihydtodiols.

nsonueuckar cclis (MNL). whercas lew eoareatrations of BAC partially teconstituted
the response of monocyte-depktod MNL so PWM. Thus, it could be seen thm BAC
could mo.Wlate PWM induced Ig sectetioa in different ways, depending on the prcs-
ence or absence of monocytes in the mononrckar cell population. The suppressor
activities of BAC were siol a"MOd by prior irradiauon and were only partially
rcvenod by the addition of i.donseth.cM b tJm cukures. IWwever, prior disruppinn of

NEURON SPECIFIC EN(1l.ASE AS AN IMMUNOCYTOCHEMICAL MARKER

b occur in some APUD cells 1s this p.per, the localization of NSE in the diffuse

u11s, singly or in 6roups, were demonstrated by anlisera raised to human or rat NSE.
Imnwnostainod send sections indicated thM NSE-positive cells could also eontain
bombesin and 1« SHTtike imrnunoreactiviry. At least three different cell types were
identified containins (1) NSE. S1fT, and bombesin, (2) NSE and SHf, and (3) NSE
alone. Aftcr close consideratiexi of the material presented here, it appears that NSE is.
seful m.rker of the neuroendocrine system in the Iing as well as rn otAer tissues. Aho,
the lack of alterrsative simple and teliabk techniques capable of identifying both cells
and nerves means that the iermmocylochemicallocaGLtion of NSE is a valuable tod
for dre study of developnrent, physiobgy, and palioloSy, of this system.

FINNISII TWINS REARED APART: PRELlMINARY CHARACTERIZATION
(W REARING ENVIRONMENT
This paper presents some characteristics of the rearingeevironmenl of 17t Fin-
aish-speakint. aduh, like-sesed twin pain raised apart from the age of 10 or less. The
Finnish Twin Cohorl Study provided rhe raw dMa base for this study, and twinship was
con/imrcd by a queaiownaire study i. 1973 that eovered heahh-relatcd items ud
strndardized measures of rnorbid'r1y.1n addilion to these questions, a number of other
aspects were consideced: whether the twin pair lived together and, if twr, at what age
sepanlion had occurred. The presear froqrency of intrapair contad, binh order, and
handedness were also investitarod ard queslions directed to zyRosily assessmenl were
included. Later, during November 1979-lanuary 1950, a new questionnaire on their
childhood envinmmeM went out 1o the 478 twin pain in the test gnwp and lhrx
correyrrding conuol groups, which were formed to assess which aspects of the
rearing environmen/, persanahly fsccMxs, ard childhood medical htsMxy of the study
sample deHered 1nom those o( twins of the same age and sea. l.isrings fiM thu study re
6ivcn by a6e o( seprMion (gnxwps 1-1 V) and by bisdt year and sea. ResuMs o( rhis study
sM,wed tAa1 the inlnpair correlation of rearing eeviranmerN varied RreNly as it ap-
peared from variabks such as age tl sepratio., family memhers, school, frie.ds,
h.inR place, inrrapair contact frequency, and educarion and occupation of rearing
parents. Morcover, the cause of seprMion, based on self-report, seemed b be fairly
oflen associated with some psychosocial pathology. The sepration of nsembers of a
twin pair may also mean intrapir selection. Further assesarneal and comparisons with
singletons from the general popylation sad with psychiauic outpatients re ongoing for
this study.

CANCER IN ADULT SAME-SEXED TWINS: A HISTORICAL COHORT
STUDY
1o this attempt so i.vestipre the feasibility of utilkiaR the twin method as a ease-
eowo/ type of nudy. a historical record-IinkaRe eohort study betwon the Firtish
Twio Cohort Study and the Firteish Cancer Registry was canried ou1. The Finnish Twin
Cohort wu crered in 1974 from the canpleriaed Ceatral Population ReRistry, while
the Finnish Cancer Registry is a populatioo-basod, national registry in operatiow sinee
1953. N is considered a be rather eoropk/e with respect to iscidea cases of ca.cer i.
Fi.fand. For this srudy persons included in both registries were identified by com-
paring by computer the personal ideulifKMiorr swsnbess (a K)-digN unique code as-
signed to each reside.r in Finland) of die two see gi.lries. The cornparirorr covered die
ycan 1967-1976. ltrc Iwi. record linkate yielded the observed aurnben of cancers of
difkant types. Age and sea-specifie pcrson-yeas at risk were cakulned sep.rarely
fa rhe twin pipularion rd the sinalerow Rrorp. Also, person-yean at risk were
calculated for cotwins of tancer poba.ds. Results of this study showed that the lord
cancer morbidity in the twin population was lower IAr e.peckd for both mca and
wamen. The relMive risk for all eancen was 0.77 for aten awd 0.72 fa womea. 1n the
singleton ppulalion, the relative risk for men was slightly over unity. Us this srudy, the
ratio of the observed to ezpecud cancer rrwrbidity closely rdlected the srandrdized
(lotal/ mortality ratios for the same calendar yean. suggesting tha the bwer-than-
espetted cancer nwxbidity may have a background in conwnoa wirh the lower-dua.-
espected rnoAality. Alscs, the low concordance rNe fornd in this study suggests thN it
may be frritful to study the environmenul esposun: of csncer-discurdanr MZ rd DZ
Iwins. `

MIq.TIVAR1ATl: 1(X]IT ANALYSIS OF CONCORDANCE RATIOS FOR
()lIA1.1TATIVF IRAITS IN 7WIN STUDIES
This stalistical paper presenls a new approach for the analysis of a certain type of
twin data The nMKkl that is applied in this paper, the logit mndel, is anahrys.ws to the
widely used los-lrnear rtrrkl for contingency table analysis. This trNdcl, which per-
rrwts testing of inleracliun effects befare eslinwing the main effecls of the study
variabks. may also be easily estetded to four-way or even more cnrnpler, tabks,
though the IestinR procedures and sequential brpnlhesis testing becomes increasingly
dcmawding. In the esampk used for this study, dMs frorn a cross-nslinnal study of
cigarette smokis amunK aduM twin pairs in two countries was vscd. The muhivariale
assessmenl of tenctie factors in relation lo other factors was carried out by Ms6i1
analysis of cs>r+crwJance ralios by analyzing three variaMes.:yRosily, ses, and crwe-
1ry. at the samc Irnre Thus, the effect of sea and country on ryR.>`ity in the smolint
uail could be controlled. Fur cigarette smnkinR, the present results indicate that in IrMh
cuunuies the :ypu.ity effect is sitnificanl, and indepemknt ul country and ses AI-
tMwah mN preseMed here,lhe resuhs held far both current anJ ever cigarette smoking
as well as fur smoking over one pack a day either curremly or ever. 1ur the heavy
snwiRers, the zy`.sily effect had a si6ni1kaal inleracliun with sea. A siAnifiaant ryKus-
ity effect implies greater concnrdanee fnr the trait amnns MZ than DZ paus and is due
hs the akrnlical Aennme and probably greater eomnwin envKSmmenl uf MZ twin pain.
