Specific nucleoprotein complexes within adenovirus capsids.

Adenoviral DNA was examined within capsids by dimethyl sulfate footprinting. Protein-DNA interactions were visualized through ligation-mediated PCR (LM-PCR). Signals for protein binding were found adjacent to both inverted terminal repeats (ITR). There were no indications of close protein binding at several other loci of the viral genome. Therefore, adenovirus type 5 seems to contain sequence- or locus-specific DNA binding proteins within the virion.

Measurements of retinal microcirculation in retinal vessel occlusion before and after treatment.

Blood flow, arterial velocity, and vascular diameter were measured in patients with retinal vessel occlusion before and after treatment, especially after light coagulation. The mean values in the patient group showed significantly reduced blood flow and velocity compared to the normal group. The mean group difference before and after therapy revealed that while there is an increase in blood flow after treatment, the normal value is not reached. Individual patient values indicated both increased and decreased blood flow and velocity after treatment as compared with the values before therapy. There are various stages in microcirculatory disease and the microcirculation also behaves differently after treatment, which could be observed by measurement in vivo of the physiological flow parameters.

[Clinical interpretation of retinal circulatory measurements. IV. Photocoagulation in diabetic retinopathy and venous occlusive diseases].

Based on the pathomechanism of diabetic retinopathy, the effect of photocoagulation on retinal microcirculation as assessed by measurements of retinal microcirculation magnitudes is discussed. The clinico-experimental results support the opinion that an essential effect of photocoagulation is due to an improvement in the flow conditions of the noncoagulated central retinal area with regard to metabolic exchange and stasis situation by the coagulation-induced occlusion of peripheral capillary areas. Further clinico-experimental measurements of retinal microcirculation magnitudes for the assessment of the behavior of microcirculation after photocoagulation in venous occlusive diseases of the retina are presented. It is shown that retinal microcirculation immediately after photocoagulation reacts by transitory instationary flow conditions; in this period it is quite possible that an additional blood flow reduction over several days will occur. In particular, the effect of photocoagulation in venous occlusive diseases with narrow arterial vessels is discussed. It is emphasized that with regard to the therapeutic effect of photocoagulation as well as to the discussion of pathomechanisms, apart from blood flow, the differentiated behavior of single retinal vascular areas, such as arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules and veins, requires more attention. Particularly with this in mind, substantial improvements in differential diagnosis and treatment of retinal circulatory disturbances may be expected from measurements of retinal circulation magnitudes.
