The p53 gene is known to be one of the most commonly mutated genes in human cancers. Many squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck (SCCHNs) have been shown to contain nonfunctional p53 as well. The use of p53-mediated gene therapy to treat such cancers has become an intensive area of research. Although there have been varied treatment responses to p53 gene therapy, the role that endogenous p53 status plays in this response has not been thoroughly examined. Because of this, the hypothesis of this study examined the role that the endogenous p53 status of cells plays in their response to p53 gene therapy. To test this, an adenoviral vector containing p53 (p53FAd) was administered to three squamous cell carcinoma lines with varied endogenous p53. The SCC9 cell line demonstrates no p53 protein expression, the SCC4 cell line displays overexpression of a mutant p53 protein, and the 1986LN cell line displays low to no expression of wild-type p53 protein as a consequence of human papillomavirus infection. After treatment with p53FAd, the cells were examined for evidence of exogenous p53 expression, growth suppression, alterations in cellular proteins, G1 growth arrest, apoptosis, and differentiation state. Each cell line exhibited exogenous p53 protein. Growth suppression was seen most prominently in the SCC9 cells, to some extent in the 1986LN cells, and little was seen with the SCC4 cells. WAF1/p21 protein was induced in all three cell lines, while PCNA, bcl-2, and bax expression was not significantly affected in any of the lines. Apoptosis developed first in SCC9 cells, next in 1986LN cells, with little seen in the SCC4 cells. The SCC9 line was the only line to show significant GI growth arrest. No significant differences were observed in the overall expression of differentiation markers, aside from increased keratin 13 mRNA levels in all three lines indicating a possible tendency toward differentiation. This study indicates that the endogenous p53 status of squamous cell carcinomas appears to play a critical role in determining the response to p53 adenoviral gene therapy. ^

The Cenozoic ice-rafted debris (IRD) history of the central Arctic is reconstructed utilizing the terrigenous coarse sand fraction in IODP 302 cores from 0 to 273 meters composite depth. This Holocene - middle Eocene quantitative record of terrigenous sand accumulation on the Lomonosov Ridge, along with qualitative information on grain texture and composition, confirms the interpretation that ice initiation (sea ice and glacial ice) occurred ~46 Ma in the Arctic, and provides a long-term pattern of Arctic ice expansion and decay since the middle Eocene. IRD mass accumulation rates range from 0 to 0.13 g/cm2/ka in the middle Eocene and from 0 to 0.36 g/cm2/ka in the Neogene. IRD mass accumulation rate (MAR) maxima in the Miocene and Pliocene cooccur with either glacial initiation or intensification in the sub-Arctic. The 46.25 Ma IRD onset in the central Arctic slightly precedes the earliest evidence of ice in the Antarctic, and compares in timing with a >1000 ppm decrease in atmospheric concentrations of CO2. The decline of pCO2 in the middle Eocene may have driven both poles across the temperature threshold that enabled the nucleation of glaciers on land and partial freezing of the surface Arctic Ocean, especially during times of low insolation.

La Patrística cristiana recibió la noción veterotestamentaria de asthéneia de la versión griega de los LXX. Entendida como “debilidad" y “falta de fuerza", se la asoció con “enfermedad" o “estado general de debilidad", significado que se conservó tanto en los libros históricos como en los poéticos. El término aparece con frecuencia también en los Evangelios y en los escritos de Pablo, posibilitando así una comprensión de la enfermedad en clave filosófico-teológica por parte de los Padres, entre los que se destaca el Patriarca de Constantinopla San Juan Crisóstomo, quien recurriendo a una exégesis literal de la Escritura según los principios de la escuela antioquena, analiza el concepto en sus comentarios a las Epístolas llamadas “Mayores" de San Pablo y, particularmente, a la Segunda Carta a los Corintios. De esta lectura se desprende la necesidad de considerar la asthéneia de manera inseparable de la antropología cristiana. En los orígenes del cristianismo la concepción de hombre resultaba extremadamente compleja, oscilando desde la antropología tripartita de San Pablo (I Tes. 5, 23) a la quíntuple presentada por ciertos textos gnósticos (Carta esotérica de Santiago 11, 36-12, 17; 14, 24-36) y a la década de Clemente de Alejandría (Strómata VI, 16, 135, 1-2). El estudio de la aplicación del concepto de asthéneia a los distintos componentes del hombre en la polifacética literatura cristiana primitiva, permite comprender la importancia asignada a cada uno de ellos según las distintas corrientes interpretativas.

The apostle St. John impacted on Irenaeus through Policarpus from Smyrna. It is possible to track down distinctive aspects of the fourth Evangelist’s though by researching the work of the Bishop of Lyon, mainly in reference to his emphasis on the incarnation and on hissoteriology, which emphasises the individual relationship between the believer and God. We attempt to trace similarities between the Lugdunensis’s deep realism and that of the one which is considered by the tradition as the last eyewitness of the incarnated Verb. We will start from an analysis of the historical bond which links Irenaeus to John, and follow some of the main lines of his writings.

To understand the late Cenozoic glacial history of the Northern Hemisphere, continuous long-term proxy records from climatically sensitive regions must be examined. Ice-rafted debris (IRD) from Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Site 918, located in the Irminger Basin, is one such record. IRD in marine sediments is a direct indicator of the presence of glacial ice extending to sea level on adjacent landmasses, and, therefore, is an important paleoclimatic signal from the mid- to high latitudes. The IRD record at Site 918 is the first long-term ice-rafting record available for southeast Greenland, a region that may have been a key nucleation area for widespread glaciation during the late Cenozoic (Larsen et al, 1994, doi:10.2973/odp.proc.ir.152.1994). This data report presents the results of coarse sand-size IRD mass accumulation rate (MAR) analyses for Site 918 from the late Miocene through the Pleistocene. In addition, a preliminary analysis of IRD compositions is included. Detailed discussions of the local, regional, and global paleoclimatic implications of this data, and of the companion Site 919 Pleistocene IRD MAR data (Krissek, 1999, doi:10.2973/odp.proc.sr.163.118.1999), are in preparation. Such future work will include comparisons of these IRD MAR data sets to the Site 919 oxygen isotope stratigraphy developed by Flower (1998, doi:10.2973/odp.proc.sr.152.219.1998).

Risk analyses indicate that more than 90% of the world's reefs will be threatened by climate change and local anthropogenic impacts by the year 2030 under "business-as-usual" climate scenarios. Increasing temperatures and solar radiation cause coral bleaching that has resulted in extensive coral mortality. Increasing carbon dioxide reduces seawater pH, slows coral growth, and may cause loss of reef structure. Management strategies include establishment of marine protected areas with environmental conditions that promote reef resiliency. However, few resilient reefs have been identified, and resiliency factors are poorly defined. Here we characterize the first natural, non-reef coral refuge from thermal stress and ocean acidification and identify resiliency factors for mangrove-coral habitats. We measured diurnal and seasonal variations in temperature, salinity, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), and seawater chemistry; characterized substrate parameters; and examined water circulation patterns in mangrove communities where scleractinian corals are growing attached to and under mangrove prop roots in Hurricane Hole, St. John, US Virgin Islands. Additionally, we inventoried the coral species and quantified incidences of coral bleaching, mortality, and recovery for two major reef-building corals, Colpophyllia natans and Diploria labyrinthiformis, growing in mangrove-shaded and exposed (unshaded) areas. Over 30 species of scleractinian corals were growing in association with mangroves. Corals were thriving in low-light (more than 70% attenuation of incident PAR) from mangrove shading and at higher temperatures than nearby reef tract corals. A higher percentage of C. natans colonies were living shaded by mangroves, and no shaded colonies were bleached. Fewer D. labyrinthiformis colonies were shaded by mangroves, however more unshaded colonies were bleached. A combination of substrate and habitat heterogeneity, proximity of different habitat types, hydrographic conditions, and biological influences on seawater chemistry generate chemical conditions that buffer against ocean acidification. This previously undocumented refuge for corals provides evidence for adaptation of coastal organisms and ecosystem transition due to recent climate change. Identifying and protecting other natural, non-reef coral refuges is critical for sustaining corals and other reef species into the future.
