cDNA clone coding for part of a mouse H-2d major histocompatibility antigen.

mRNA coding for mouse major transplantation antigens of the d haplotype was partially purified, copied into double-stranded cDNA, and cloned in Escherichia coli. Clones were selected by their ability to hybridize specifically with mRNA coding for H-2K, D, or L antigens. One of these clones, pH-2d-1, carries a 1200-base-pair insert, comprising the noncoding region, including poly(A) at the 3' end and part of the coding region. A partial sequence of the latter region showed extensive homology with the known amino acid sequences of H-2Kb,Kk, and HLA-B7 antigens. From this comparison, it appears that the coding region extends from amino acid 133 in the second domain, through the third domain, to the cytoplasmic COOH-terminal region. A stretch of 24 hydrophobic or uncharged residues, located 31 amino acids from the COOH-terminal end, could represent the segment that spans the membrane. This is followed on the cytoplasmic side of the membrane by a cluster of basic amino acids and a possible phosphorylation site on a threonine residue.

Long-term changes in dopaminergic innervation of caudate nucleus after continuous amphetamine administration.

Silicone pellets containing d-amphetamine base were implanted subcutaneously in rats. These pellets release amphetamine continuously for at least 10 days. Several days after implantation, swollen dopamine axons concomitant with large decreases in tyrosine hydroxylase activity were observed in the caudate nucleus. Decreased tyrosine hydroxylase activity was still present 110 days after pellet removal in the caudate but not in several other brain regions, nor in the caudate of rats injected with an equivalent amount of amphetamine in daily injections. This implies that continuous amphetamine administration has a selective neurotoxic effect on dopamine terminals in the caudate.

[Systematized papulosis of the lower scapular areas with ultrastructural anhist bodies: specific cutaneous symptoms of Hunter's disease (author's transl)].

Papulosis of the scapular areas is a characteristic dermatologic sign of Hunter's disease. It has not been described in the other mucopolysaccharidoses. This sign had been detailed by Hunter in 1917 in his princeps observation. We noted it in two cases of the disease. The ultrastructural study showed an accumulation in the connective interstitial substance of anhist bodies of intra-cellular origin.
