Molecular dynamics of MHC genesis unraveled by sequence analysis of the 1,796,938-bp HLA class I region

The intensely studied MHC has become the paradigm for understanding the architectural evolution of vertebrate multigene families. The 4-Mb human MHC (also known as the HLA complex) encodes genes critically involved in the immune response, graft rejection, and disease susceptibility. Here we report the continuous 1,796,938-bp genomic sequence of the HLA class I region, linking genes between MICB and HLA-F. A total of 127 genes or potentially coding sequences were recognized within the analyzed sequence, establishing a high gene density of one per every 14.1 kb. The identification of 758 microsatellite provides tools for high-resolution mapping of HLA class I-associated disease genes. Most importantly, we establish that the repeated duplication and subsequent diversification of a minimal building block, MIC-HCGIX-3.8–1-P5-HCGIV-HLA class I-HCGII, engendered the present-day MHC. That the currently nonessential HLA-F and MICE genes have acted as progenitors to today’s immune-competent HLA-ABC and MICA/B genes provides experimental evidence for evolution by “birth and death,” which has general relevance to our understanding of the evolutionary forces driving vertebrate multigene families.

Propriedades dinâmicas de fluidos por simulação computacional: métodos híbridos atomístico-contínuo

Computational methods for the calculation of dynamical properties of fluids might consider the system as a continuum or as an assembly of molecules. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation includes molecular resolution, whereas computational fluid dynamics (CFD) considers the fluid as a continuum. This work provides a review of hybrid methods MD/CFD recently proposed in the literature. Theoretical foundations, basic approaches of computational methods, and dynamical properties typically calculated by MD and CFD are first presented in order to appreciate the similarities and differences between these two methods. Then, methods for coupling MD and CFD, and applications of hybrid simulations MD/CFD, are presented.

Política de saúde e gestão no processo de (re)construção do SUS em município de grande porte: um estudo de caso de São Paulo, Brasil

O processo de (re)construção do SUS no Município de São Paulo, Brasil, foi analisado, no período de 2001- 2008, por meio de estudo de caso, utilizando-se distintas fontes: documentos; entrevistas com informantes-chave e observação participante. Os conceitos de política de saúde e de gestão em saúde foram utilizados na qualidade de categorias analíticas. Foram selecionadas e analisadas apenas políticas priorizadas pela gestão iniciada em 2001 e que tiveram sustentação até 2008. Discutem-se desafios para a (re)construção do SUS no município relacionados com o contexto político-institucional e com mudanças de estrutura implementadas. As reorganizações da Secretaria Municipal de Saúde de São Paulo propiciaram a constituição e manutenção de dois subsistemas municipais, um hospitalar e outro ambulatorial. Negociações entre os governos municipal, estadual e federal não avançaram para que o município assumisse a gestão de fato de todo sistema de saúde, constatando-se a coexistência de três subsistemas públicos de saúde paralelos: dois municipais e um estadual. A sustentação política do Programa Saúde da Família foi associada ao fato de que esse programa não se constituiu como marca da primeira gestão municipal e, ainda, de ser política prioritária e estimulada pelo governo federal.

Efficient method for obtaining Lep(ob)/Lep(ob)-derived animal models using adipose tissue transplantations

Background: Leptin-deficient mice (Lep(ob)/Lep(ob), also known as ob/ob) are of great importance for studies of obesity, diabetes and other correlated pathologies. Thus, generation of animals carrying the Lep(ob) gene mutation as well as additional genomic modifications has been used to associate genes with metabolic diseases. However, the infertility of Lep(ob)/Lep(ob) mice impairs this kind of breeding experiment. Objective: To propose a new method for production of Lep(ob)/Lep(ob) animals and Lep(ob)/Lep(ob)-derived animal models by restoring the fertility of Lep(ob)/Lep(ob) mice in a stable way through white adipose tissue transplantations. Methods: For this purpose, 1 g of peri-gonadal adipose tissue from lean donors was used in subcutaneous transplantations of Lep(ob)/Lep(ob) animals and a crossing strategy was established to generate Lep(ob)/Lep(ob)-derived mice. Results: The presented method reduced by four times the number of animals used to generate double transgenic models (from about 20 to 5 animals per double mutant produced) and minimized the number of genotyping steps (from 3 to 1 genotyping step, reducing the number of Lep gene genotyping assays from 83 to 6). Conclusion: The application of the adipose transplantation technique drastically improves both the production of Lep(ob)/Lep(ob) animals and the generation of Lep(ob)/Lep(ob)-derived animal models.
