Report on a Round Table Conference in Monaco on 17th and 18th January, 2004.

Duchenne Parent Project France and the Association Monegasque Contre les Myopathies invited 35 scientists and representatives of Duchenne parent groups for this Round-Table Conference in Monaco. Two scientific approaches towards the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy were discussed. The following text is not a scientific report for experts but was written for the families with Duchenne boys in January and February 2004. Some of the experiments are described in greater detail, because this report should make it clear that in spite of the incredible complexity of the human genetic structure, new experimental techniques and the skill of the scientists make it possible to manipulate the information of the very large dystrophin gene without interfering with the other about 25,000 to 30,000 genes in every cell of a Duchenne boy.

Revision and phylogeny of rhamnocercinae monaco, Wood et Mizelle, 1954 (Monogenoidea: Diplectanidae).

Species of Rhamnocercinae Monaco, Wood et Mizelle, 1954 are gill parasites of sciaenid fishes (Perciformes). Seven are marine species (three in the western Atlantic and four in oriental Pacific) and one is a neotropical freshwater species (Rio Doce Basin, Brazil). While the status of the subfamily may be questioned, this assemblage of species is apparently supported by several shared apomorphic and plesiomorphic characters, such as: (1) peduncular spines with anterior and posterior roots; (2) haptor laterally expanded, armed with anchors (two pairs); bars (one ventral, two dorsal); 14 hooks and haptoral accessory spines; and (3) double (nested) tubes of the male copulatory organ (MCO), directed posteriorly with the genital pore lying posterior to the MCO. The phylogenetic hypothesis for the eight known species of this clade is: (Spinomatrix penteormos (Rhamnocercoides stichospinus, Rhamnocercoides menticirrhi) Rhamnocercus oliveri (Rhamnocercus rhamnocercus (Rhamnocercus stelliferi, Rhamnocercus bairdiella, Rhamnocercus margaritae)). This hypothesis indicates that Spinomatrix penteormos represents the sister group of all remaining rhamnocercines. The resulting phylogenetic sister-group relationships support the transfer of Rhamnocercus stichospinus Seamster et Wood, 1956 to Rhamnocercoides Luque et Iannacone, 1991 as Rhamnocercoides stichospinus (Seamster et Wood, 1956) n. comb.

Redescription of Rhamnocercus stichospinus Seamster and Monaco, 1956 (Monogenea: Diplectanidae), parasitic on Menticirrhus americanus (Osteichthyes: Sciaenidae) from the coastal zone of the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Rhamnocercus stichospinus Seamster and Monaco, 1956 (Diplectanidae) parasitic on the sciaenid fish Menticirrhus americanus from the coastal zone of the State of Rio de Janeiro, is redescribed and recorded for the first time in the South American Atlantic Ocean. The generic diagnosis of Rhamnocercus is emended to accommodate the presence of confluent intestinal ceca in R. stichospinus.
