  text: Hyperpolarization-activated channels (Ih or HCN channels) are widely expressed
    in principal neurons in the central nervous system. However, Ih in inhibitory
    GABAergic interneurons is less well characterized. We examined the functional
    properties of Ih in fast-spiking basket cells (BCs) of the dentate gyrus, using
    hippocampal slices from 17- to 21-day-old rats. Bath application of the Ih channel
    blocker ZD 7288 at a concentration of 30 microm induced a hyperpolarization of
    5.7 +/- 1.5 mV, an increase in input resistance and a correlated increase in apparent
    membrane time constant. ZD 7288 blocked a hyperpolarization-activated current
    in a concentration-dependent manner (IC50, 1.4 microm). The effects of ZD 7288
    were mimicked by external Cs+. The reversal potential of Ih was -27.4 mV, corresponding
    to a Na+ to K+ permeability ratio (PNa/PK) of 0.36. The midpoint potential of
    the activation curve of Ih was -83.9 mV, and the activation time constant at -120
    mV was 190 ms. Single-cell expression analysis using reverse transcription followed
    by quantitative polymerase chain reaction revealed that BCs coexpress HCN1 and
    HCN2 subunit mRNA, suggesting the formation of heteromeric HCN1/2 channels. ZD
    7288 increased the current threshold for evoking antidromic action potentials
    by extracellular stimulation, consistent with the expression of Ih in BC axons.
    Finally, ZD 7288 decreased the frequency of miniature inhibitory postsynaptic
    currents (mIPSCs) in hippocampal granule cells, the main target cells of BCs,
    to 70 +/- 4% of the control value. In contrast, the amplitude of mIPSCs was unchanged,
    consistent with the presence of Ih in inhibitory terminals. In conclusion, our
    results suggest that Ih channels are expressed in the somatodendritic region,
    axon and presynaptic elements of fast-spiking BCs in the hippocampus.

  text: The axon terminals (mossy fibers) of hippocampal dentate granule cells form
    characteristic synaptic connections with large spines or excrescences of both
    hilar mossy cells and CA3 pyramidal neurons. Interneurons of the hilar region
    and area CA3 are also prominent targets of mossy fibers. The tracing of biocytin-filled
    mossy fibers and immunolabeling of target cells with interneuron markers has revealed
    that the majority of mossy fiber synapses project to gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA)-ergic
    inhibitory interneurons rather than to excitatory principal cells, although the
    functional implications of these quantitative differences are unclear. Following
    a brief description of the &quot;classical&quot; mossy fiber synapse on excrescences
    of CA3 pyramidal cells, the present review focuses on the contacts formed between
    granule cells and GABAergic interneurons, both normally and after synaptic reorganization.
    In response to deafferentation of mossy cell target cells, which include both
    granule cells and interneurons, mossy fibers &quot;sprout&quot; new axon collaterals
    that form a band of supragranular mossy fibers in the inner molecular layer of
    the dentate gyrus. Although most newly formed recurrent mossy fibers establish
    synapses with granule cells, there is an apparently convergent input of new mossy
    fibers onto GABA-immunoreactive interneuron dendrites that traverse the inner
    molecular layer. These mossy fiber-interneuron synapses in the dentate gyrus are
    observed in chronically epileptic rats and may be the structural correlate of
    the granule cell hyperinhibition observed in these animals in vivo. Together,
    the findings reviewed here establish mossy fiber synapses as an important component
    of inhibitory circuits in the hippocampus.

  text: It is widely accepted that the hippocampus plays a major role in learning
    and memory. The mossy fiber synapse between granule cells in the dentate gyrus
    and pyramidal neurons in the CA3 region is a key component of the hippocampal
    trisynaptic circuit. Recent work, partially based on direct presynaptic patch-clamp
    recordings from hippocampal mossy fiber boutons, sheds light on the mechanisms
    of synaptic transmission and plasticity at mossy fiber synapses. A high Na(+)
    channel density in mossy fiber boutons leads to a large amplitude of the presynaptic
    action potential. Together with the fast gating of presynaptic Ca(2+) channels,
    this generates a large and brief presynaptic Ca(2+) influx, which can trigger
    transmitter release with high efficiency and temporal precision. The large number
    of release sites, the large size of the releasable pool of vesicles, and the huge
    extent of presynaptic plasticity confer unique strength to this synapse, suggesting
    a large impact onto the CA3 pyramidal cell network under specific behavioral conditions.
    The characteristic properties of the hippocampal mossy fiber synapse may be important
    for pattern separation and information storage in the dentate gyrus-CA3 cell network.

  text: Rigorous analysis of synaptic transmission in the central nervous system requires
    access to presynaptic terminals. However, cortical terminals have been largely
    inaccessible to presynaptic patch-clamp recording, due to their small size. Using
    improved patch-clamp techniques in brain slices, we recorded from mossy fiber
    terminals in the CA3 region of the hippocampus, which have a diameter of 2-5 microm.
    The major steps of improvement were the enhanced visibility provided by high-numerical
    aperture objectives and infrared illumination, the development of vibratomes with
    minimal vertical blade vibrations and the use of sucrose-based solutions for storage
    and cutting. Based on these improvements, we describe a protocol that allows us
    to routinely record from hippocampal mossy fiber boutons. Presynaptic recordings
    can be obtained in slices from both rats and mice. Presynaptic recordings can
    be also obtained in slices from transgenic mice in which terminals are labeled
    with enhanced green fluorescent protein.

  text: A stochastic graph game is played by two players on a game graph with probabilistic
    transitions. We consider stochastic graph games with omega-regular winning conditions
    specified as Rabin or Streett objectives. These games are NP-complete and coNP-complete,
    respectively. The value of the game for a player at a state s given an objective
    Phi is the maximal probability with which the player can guarantee the satisfaction
    of Phi from s. We present a strategy-improvement algorithm to compute values in
    stochastic Rabin games, where an improvement step involves solving Markov decision
    processes (MDPs) and nonstochastic Rabin games. The algorithm also computes values
    for stochastic Streett games but does not directly yield an optimal strategy for
    Streett objectives. We then show how to obtain an optimal strategy for Streett
    objectives by solving certain nonstochastic Streett games.

  text: We study observation-based strategies for two-player turn-based games on graphs
    with omega-regular objectives. An observation-based strategy relies on imperfect
    information about the history of a play, namely, on the past sequence of observations.
    Such games occur in the synthesis of a controller that does not see the private
    state of the plant. Our main results are twofold. First, we give a fixed-point
    algorithm for computing the set of states from which a player can win with a deterministic
    observation-based strategy for any omega-regular objective. The fixed point is
    computed in the lattice of antichains of state sets. This algorithm has the advantages
    of being directed by the objective and of avoiding an explicit subset construction
    on the game graph. Second, we give an algorithm for computing the set of states
    from which a player can win with probability 1 with a randomized observation-based
    strategy for a Buchi objective. This set is of interest because in the absence
    of perfect information, randomized strategies are more powerful than deterministic
    ones. We show that our algorithms are optimal by proving matching lower bounds.

  text: We consider two-player infinite games played on graphs. The games are concurrent,
    in that at each state the players choose their moves simultaneously and independently,
    and stochastic, in that the moves determine a probability distribution for the
    successor state. The value of a game is the maximal probability with which a player
    can guarantee the satisfaction of her objective. We show that the values of concurrent
    games with w-regular objectives expressed as parity conditions can be decided
    in NP boolean AND coNP. This result substantially improves the best known previous
    bound of 3EXPTIME. It also shows that the full class of concurrent parity games
    is no harder than the special case of turn-based stochastic reachability games,
    for which NP boolean AND coNP is the best known bound. While the previous, more
    restricted NP boolean AND coNP results for graph games relied on the existence
    of particularly simple (pure memoryless) optimal strategies, in concurrent games
    with parity objectives optimal strategies may not exist, and epsilon-optimal strategies
    (which achieve the value of the game within a parameter epsilon &gt; 0) require
    in general both randomization and infinite memory. Hence our proof must rely on
    a more detailed analysis of strategies and, in addition to the main result, yields
    two results that are interesting on their own. First, we show that there exist
    epsilon-optimal strategies that in the limit coincide with memoryless strategies;
    this parallels the celebrated result of Mertens-Neyman for concurrent games with
    limit-average objectives. Second, we complete the characterization of the memory
    requirements for epsilon-optimal strategies for concurrent games with parity conditions,
    by showing that memoryless strategies suffice for epsilon-optimality for coBachi
    conditions.

  text: 'We study infinite stochastic games played by two-players over a finite state
    space, with objectives specified by sets of infinite traces. The games are concurrent
    (players make moves simultaneously and independently), stochastic (the next state
    is determined by a probability distribution that depends on the current state
    and chosen moves of the players) and infinite (proceeds for infinite number of
    rounds). The analysis of concurrent stochastic games can be classified into: quantitative
    analysis, analyzing the optimum value of the game; and qualitative analysis, analyzing
    the set of states with optimum value 1. We consider concurrent games with tail
    objectives, i.e., objectives that are independent of the finite-prefix of traces,
    and show that the class of tail objectives are strictly richer than the omega-regular
    objectives. We develop new proof techniques to extend several properties of concurrent
    games with omega-regular objectives to concurrent games with tail objectives.
    We prove the positive limit-one property for tail objectives, that states for
    all concurrent games if the optimum value for a player is positive for a tail
    objective Phi at some state, then there is a state where the optimum value is
    1 for Phi, for the player. We also show that the optimum values of zero-sum (strictly
    conflicting objectives) games with tail objectives can be related to equilibrium
    values of nonzero-sum (not strictly conflicting objectives) games with simpler
    reachability objectives. A consequence of our analysis presents a polynomial time
    reduction of the quantitative analysis of tail objectives to the qualitative analysis
    for the sub-class of one-player stochastic games (Markov decision processes).'

  text: 'It is commonly believed that both the average length and the frequency of
    microsatellites correlate with genome size. We have estimated the frequency and
    the average length for 69 perfect dinucleotide microsatellites in an insect with
    an exceptionally large genome: Chorthippus biguttulus (Orthoptera, Acrididae).
    Dinucleotide microsatellites are not more frequent in C. biguttulus, but repeat
    arrays are 1.4 to 2 times longer than in other insect species. The average repeat
    number in C. biguttulus lies in the range of higher vertebrates. Natural populations
    are highly variable. At least 30 alleles per locus were found and the expected
    heterozygosity is above 0.95 at all three loci studied. In contrast, the observed
    heterozygosity is much lower (≤0.51), which could be caused by long null alleles.'

  text: Invasive species often dramatically change native species communities by directly
    and indirectly out-competing native species. We studied the direct interference
    abilities of the invasive garden ant, Lasius neglectus VAN LOON, BOOMSMA &amp;
    ANDRÁSFALVY, 1990, by performing one-to-one aggression tests of L. neglectus workers
    towards three native Lasius ant species that occur at the edge of a L. neglectus
    supercolony in Seva, Spain. Our results show that L. neglectus is highly aggressive
    against all three native Lasius species tested (L. grandis FOREL, 1909, L. emarginatus
    (OLIVIER, 1792), and L. cinereus SEIFERT, 1992), expressed as a higher attack
    rate of L. neglectus and behavioural dominance throughout the aggressive encounters.
    Attacks of L. neglectus were performed fastest and most frequent against L. grandis,
    and also the highest antennation frequencies were observed in encounters between
    these two species. This could be due to the largest difference in body size, or
    due to a greater overlap in ecological niche between L. neglectus and L. grandis
    compared to the other two native species. There was only weak support for L. neglectus
    workers from the periphery of the supercolony to be more aggressive relative to
    workers from the centre, even though the former encounter native ant species on
    a daily basis at the edge of the supercolony.

  text: Many invasive ant species, such as the Argentine ant or the red imported fire
    ant, have huge colonies with thousands of mass-foraging workers, which quickly
    monopolise resources and therefore represent a considerable threat to the native
    ant fauna. Cardiocondyla obscurior and several other species of this myrmicine
    genus have similarly been transferred throughout the tropics by human activities.
    However, because their colonies are tiny and workers forage solitarily, Cardiocondyla
    are often not recognized as successful invaders. Here, we document that the life
    history of Cardiocondyla closely resembles that of the more conspicuous tramp
    species, with polygyny, intranidal mating, budding, worker sterility, low genetic
    variability, and possibly also unicoloniality. Given that introduced Cardiocondyla
    may locally reach a very high population density, the effects of these stealthy
    invaders on the native arthropod fauna should receive more attention.

  text: We compare the performances of established means of character selection for
    discriminant analysis in species distinction with a combination procedure for
    finding the optimal character combination (minimum classification error, minimum
    number of required characters), using morphometric data sets from the ant genera
    Cardiocondyla, Lasius and Tetramorium. The established methods are empirical character
    selection as well as forward selection, backward elimination and stepwise selection
    of discriminant analysis. The combination procedure is clearly superior to the
    established methods of character selection, and is widely applicable.

  text: 'OBJECTIVES: The EGFR is expressed in malignant ovarian tumor tissue, and
    tissue content of EGFR has been directly associated with poor prognosis in patients
    with ovarian cancer. The uPA system plays a role in pericellular proteolysis,
    cell migration, invasion, and is over-expressed in ovarian cancer. This study
    explored the effects of EGF on uPAR expression in the ovarian cancer cell line
    OVCAR-3. METHODS: We used OVCAR-3 cells and the following methods: cell migration
    assay, time-lapse video microscopy, real-time PCR, assays for cellular binding
    of 125I-uPA and cellular degradation of 125I-uPA:PAI-1 complex, biosynthetic labeling
    using 35S-methionin, Western blot, Northern blot, and ELISAs for uPA, PAI-1, and
    uPAR. RESULTS: EGF up-regulates both protein and mRNA not only for uPAR, but also
    for the ligand uPA and its inhibitor PAI-1. Cell surface uPAR, in control as well
    as EGF-stimulated cells, is present only in the intact, not the cleaved, form.
    Ligand binding experiments showed an increase of endogenously occupied uPAR, whereas
    non-occupied receptor sites were not increased. In addition, EGF treatment resulted
    in decreased degradation of radiolabeled uPA:PAI-1 complex. This suggests decreased
    internalization of uPAR, since the complex is internalized together with uPAR.
    Like EGF, colchicine, which inhibits endocytosis, increased cell surface expression
    of uPAR. In addition, we found an immediate increase of uPAR after exposing the
    cells to EGF and this was accompanied by a transient increase of cell migration.
    The increase of cell surface uPAR in response to EGF is accompanied by increased
    release of the soluble form of uPAR (suPAR) to the medium as well as by increased
    cell migration. Both uPAR and suPAR increased in cells treated with the endocytosis
    inhibitor colchicine even though cell migration was inhibited, suggesting that
    the mechanism of uPAR shedding is not related to cell migration. CONCLUSION: Increased
    cell surface uPAR in response to EGF stimulation results from mobilization of
    uPAR from detergent-resistant domains, increased expression of uPAR mRNA, and
    decreased internalization and degradation of uPAR. Both the anti-uPAR antibody
    R3, which inhibits binding of uPA, and the EGFR phosphorylation inhibitor Iressa
    inhibited cell migration in response to uPA as well as to EGF, suggesting that
    EGFR and uPAR are engaged in the same multiprotein assembly on the cell surface.'

  text: T cells develop in the thymus in a highly specialized cellular and extracellular
    microenvironment. The basement membrane molecule, laminin-5 (LN-5), is predominantly
    found in the medulla of the human thymic lobules. Using high-resolution light
    microscopy, we show here that LN-5 is localized in a bi-membranous conduit-like
    structure, together with other typical basement membrane components including
    collagen type IV, nidogen and perlecan. Other interstitial matrix components,
    such as fibrillin-1 or -2, tenascin-C or fibrillar collagen types, were also associated
    with these structures. Three-dimensional (3D) confocal microscopy suggested a
    tubular structure, whereas immunoelectron and transmission electron microscopy
    showed that the core of these tubes contained fibrillar collagens enwrapped by
    the LN-5-containing membrane. These medullary conduits are surrounded by thymic
    epithelial cells, which in vitro were found to bind LN-5, but also fibrillin and
    tenascin-C. Dendritic cells were also detected in close vicinity to the conduits.
    Both of these stromal cell types express major histocompatibility complex (MHC)
    class II molecules capable of antigen presentation. The conduits are connected
    to blood vessels but, with an average diameter of 2 mum, they are too small to
    transport cells. However, evidence is provided that smaller molecules such as
    a 10 kDa dextran, but not large molecules (&gt;500 kDa), can be transported in
    the conduits. These results clearly demonstrate that a conduit system, which is
    also known from secondary lymphatic organs such as lymph nodes and spleen, is
    present in the medulla of the human thymus, and that it might serve to transport
    small blood-borne molecules or chemokines to defined locations within the medulla.

  text: Integrins regulate cell behavior through the assembly of multiprotein complexes
    at the site of cell adhesion. Parvins are components of such a multiprotein complex.
    They consist of three members (alpha-, beta-, and gamma-parvin), form a functional
    complex with integrin-linked kinase (ILK) and PINCH, and link integrins to the
    actin cytoskeleton. Whereas alpha- and beta-parvins are widely expressed, gamma-parvin
    has been reported to be expressed in hematopoietic organs. In the present study,
    we report the expression pattern of the parvins in hematopoietic cells and the
    phenotypic analysis of gamma-parvin-deficient mice. Whereas alpha-parvin is not
    expressed in hematopoietic cells, beta-parvin is only found in myeloid cells and
    gamma-parvin is present in both cells of the myeloid and lymphoid lineages, where
    it binds ILK. Surprisingly, loss of gamma-parvin expression had no effect on blood
    cell differentiation, proliferation, and survival and no consequence for the T-cell-dependent
    antibody response and lymphocyte and dendritic cell migration. These data indicate
    that despite the high expression of gamma-parvin in hematopoietic cells it must
    play a more subtle role for blood cell homeostasis.

  text: At least eight of the twelve known members of the beta1 integrin family are
    expressed on hematopoietic cells. Among these, the VCAM-1 receptor alpha4beta1
    has received most attention as a main factor mediating firm adhesion to the endothelium
    during blood cell extravasation. Therapeutic trials are ongoing into the use of
    antibodies and small molecule inhibitors to target this interaction and hence
    obtain anti-inflammatory effects. However, extravasation is only one possible
    process that is mediated by beta1 integrins and there is evidence that they also
    mediate leukocyte retention and positioning in the tissue, lymphocyte activation
    and possibly migration within the interstitium. Genetic mouse models where integrins
    are selectively deleted on blood cells have been used to investigate these functions
    and further studies will be invaluable to critically evaluate therapeutic trials.

  text: Evaluating the quality of experimentally determined protein structural models
    is an essential step toward identifying potential errors and guiding further structural
    refinement. Herein, we report the use of proton local density as a sensitive measure
    to assess the quality of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) structures. Using 256
    high-resolution crystal structures with protons added and optimized, we show that
    the local density of different proton types display distinct distributions. These
    distributions can be characterized by statistical moments and are used to establish
    local density Z-scores for evaluating both global and local packing for individual
    protons. Analysis of 546 crystal structures at various resolutions shows that
    the local density Z-scores increase as the structural resolution decreases and
    correlate well with the ClashScore (Word et al. J Mol Biol 1999;285(4):1711-1733)
    generated by all atom contact analysis. Local density Z-scores for NMR structures
    exhibit a significantly wider range of values than for X-ray structures and demonstrate
    a combination of potentially problematic inflation and compression. Water-refined
    NMR structures show improved packing quality. Our analysis of a high-quality structural
    ensemble of ubiquitin refined against order parameters shows proton density distributions
    that correlate nearly perfectly with our standards derived from crystal structures,
    further validating our approach. We present an automated analysis and visualization
    tool for proton packing to evaluate the quality of NMR structures.

  text: Protein-protein interactions, which form the basis for most cellular processes,
    result in the formation of protein interfaces. Believing that the local shape
    of proteins is crucial, we take a geometric approach and present a definition
    of an interface surface formed by two or more proteins as a subset of their Voronoi
    diagram. The definition deals with the difficult and important problem of specifying
    interface boundaries by invoking methods used in the alpha shape representation
    of molecules, the discrete flow on Delaunay simplices to define pockets and reconstruct
    surfaces, and the assessment of the importance of topological features. We present
    an algorithm to construct the surface and define a hierarchy that distinguishes
    core and peripheral regions. This hierarchy is shown to have correlation with
    hot-spots in protein-protein interactions. Finally, we study the geometric and
    topological properties of interface surfaces and show their high degree of contortion.

  text: Given a smoothly embedded 2-manifold in R-3, we define the elevation of a
    point as the height difference to a canonically defined second point on the same
    manifold. Our definition is invariant under rigid motions and can be used to define
    features such as lines of discontinuous or continuous but non-smooth elevation.
    We give an algorithm for finding points of locally maximum elevation, which we
    suggest mark cavities and protrusions and are useful in matching shapes as for
    example in protein docking.
