13. Effect of immunosuppression on the development of experimental hematogenous Candida endophthalmitis.
The induction of neutropenia and immunosuppression by the administration of nitrogen mustard (HN2) decreased the frequency and altered the morphology of clinically detectable hematogenous Candida endophthalmitis in the rabbit model of disseminated candidiasis. Whereas 95% of eyes in rabbits infected with Candida albicans without pretreatment with HN2 develop

14. Large capillary aneurysms secondary to retinal venous obstruction.
Three patients had unusually large capillary aneurysms. Two of the patients had had previous branch vein occlusions, while a third had had a central retinal vein occlusion. The large capillary aneurysms were located in areas of ischaemic retina that were drained by the previously obstructed veins. Retinal ischaemia and, possibly, increased hydrostatic pressu

15. Transillumination of iris and subnormal visual acuity--ocular albinism?
BACKGROUND: A common clinical sign in children with subnormal visual acuity or slow visual development was iris transillumination. This was used as the inclusion criterion in a study of children shown to have a subnormal visual acuity in a general health examination at age 4 years. METHODS: Refraction values, stereopsis, fundus photography, macular and nerve

16. Sterols Regulate Development and Gene Expression in Arabidopsis1
Sterols are important not only for structural components of eukaryotic cell membranes but also for biosynthetic precursors of steroid hormones. In plants, the diverse functions of sterol-derived brassinosteroids (BRs) in growth and development have been investigated rigorously, yet little is known about the regulatory roles of other phytosterols. Recent anal

17. The eye in the CHARGE association.
CHARGE association includes patients with at least four features prefixed by the letters of the mnemonic: Coloboma, Heart defects, Atresia of the choanae, Retarded growth and development, Genital hypoplasia, Ear anomalies and/or hearing loss. Many also have facial palsy. We report a series identified by collaboration within one centre of all specialties conc

18. Evidence for the involvement of mouse heat shock factor 1 in the atypical expression of the HSP70.1 heat shock gene during mouse zygotic genome activation.
The mouse HSP70.1 gene, which codes for a heat shock protein (hsp70), is highly transcribed at the onset of zygotic genome activation (ZGA). This expression, which occurs in the absence of stress, is then repressed. It has been claimed that this gene does not exhibit a stress response until the blastocyst stage. The promoter of HSP70.1 contains four heat sho

19. Male Japanese quails with female brains do not show male sexual behaviors
During embryonic development, gonadal steroid hormones (androgens and estrogens) are thought to organize the sexual differentiation of the brain in the heterogametic sexes of higher vertebrates (males in mammals, females in birds). Brain differentiation of the homogametic sexes is thought to proceed by default, not requiring sex hormones for sex-specific

20. Structural characterization of the lipopolysaccharide O antigens of Burkholderia pseudomallei.
A serologically typical strain of Burkholderia pseudomallei (strain 304b) was found to produce two S-type lipopolysaccharides (LPS) differing in the chemical structures of their O-polysaccharide (O-PS) components. Structural analysis revealed that one O-antigenic polysaccharide (O-PS I) is an unbranched high-molecular-weight polymer of 1,3-linked 2-O-acetyl-

21. Fine Structure of Rickettsia canada in Tissues of Dermacentor andersoni Stiles
Preliminary observations on growth and developmental fine structure of Rickettsia canada in various organs and tissues of the hard tick, Dermacentor andersoni Stiles, are reported. R. canada is typically rod-shaped, being delimited with a three-layered wall having a velvety coating adsorbed to its exterior surface. A finely reticulated cytoplasmic matrix con

22. Virulence-Related Physiological Changes and Antigenic Variation in Populations of Streptococcus mutans Colonizing Gnotobiotic Rats
The purpose of this study was to determine if populations of Streptococcus mutans which were undergoing antigenic variation while colonizing gnotobiotic rats concomitantly became altered in physiological characteristics which affected their virulence. S. mutans strain JBP (serotype c), which was freshly isolated from a carious lesion in a 6-year old child, w
