    Description: To facilitate molecular genetic analysis of vertebrate development, haploid genetics was used to construct a recombination map for the zebrafish Danio (Brachydanio) rerio. The map consists of 401 random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) and 13 simple sequence repeats spaced at an average interval of 5.8 centimorgans. Strategies that exploit the advantages of haploid genetics and RAPD markers were developed that quickly mapped lethal and visible mutations and that placed cloned genes on the map. This map is useful for the position-based cloning of mutant genes, the characterization of chromosome rearrangements, and the investigation of evolution in vertebrate genomes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Postlethwait, J H -- Johnson, S L -- Midson, C N -- Talbot, W S -- Gates, M -- Ballinger, E W -- Africa, D -- Andrews, R -- Carl, T -- Eisen, J S -- 1RO1AI26734/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- HD07470/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- NS23915/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Apr 29;264(5159):699-703.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Neurosciences, University of Oregon, Eugene 97403.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8171321" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Low levels of dissolved oxygen (DO) occur in many embayments throughout the world and have numerous detrimental effects on biota. Although measurement of in situ DO is straightforward with modern instrumentation, quantifying the volume of water in a given embayment that is hypoxic (hypoxic volume (HV)) is a more difficult task; however, this information is critical for determining whether management efforts to increase DO are having an overall impact. This paper uses output from a three‐dimensional numerical model to demonstrate that HV in Chesapeake Bay can be estimated well with as few as two vertical profiles. In addition, the cumulative hypoxic volume (HVC; the total amount of hypoxia in a given year) can be calculated with relatively low uncertainty (〈10%) if continuous DO data are available from two strategically positioned vertical profiles. This is because HV in the Chesapeake Bay is strongly constrained by the geometry of the embayment. A simple Geometric HV calculation method is presented and numerical model results are used to illustrate that for calculating HVC, the results using two daily‐averaged profiles are typically more accurate than those of the standard method that interpolates bimonthly cruise data. Bimonthly data produce less accurate estimates of HVC because high‐frequency changes in oxygen concentration, for example, due to regional‐weather‐ or storm‐induced changes in wind direction and magnitude, are not resolved. The advantages of supplementing cruise‐based sampling with continuous vertical profiles to estimate HVC should be applicable to other systems where hypoxic water is constrained to a specific area by bathymetry.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Des cultures d'organe de régions épiphysaires, dans des milieux contenant un, excès en vitamine A (100 USP unités/ml), présentent une nette réduction de longueur du cartilage de l'explant, ainsi qu'une perte progressive de la colorabilité en mucopolysaccharide acide de la matrice cartilagineuse et une disparition de la zone des cellules hypertrophiques, suivie d'une disparition de la distribution en zones, une accumulation de cellules au niveau de la jonction oscartilage et, parfois, une séparation de l'os du cartilage. L'acide epsilon aminocaproïque, un inhibiteur de protéase, et la chloroquine, un stabilisateur des membranes lysosomiques, inversent partiellement ces résultats. Des explants, cultivés en présence de 90% d'oxygène, ne montrent aucune diminution de la longueur de cartilage: cependant ils présentent une perte progressive de la colorabilité en mucopolysaccharide acide de la matrice cartilagineuse, une réduction et parfois une disparition des cellules hypertrophiques, une accumulation de débris acellulaires PAS positifs à la jonction, ostéo-cartilagineuse et une diminution nette en longeur de l'os explanté. L'EACA et la chloroquine inversent partiellement ces résultats. Le rôle des enzymes lysosomiques sur ces diverses manifestations est envisagé. Il semble que différentes enzymes lysomiques puissent intervenir en présence d'un excès en vitamine A et d'une tension en ozygène élevé.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Organkulturen von Epiphysenplatten, die in einem Medium mit Vitamin A-Überschuß (100 IE/ml) aufgezogen wurden, zeigten folgende Veränderungen: a) eine deutliche Längenabnahme der Knorpelkomponente des Explantates, b) einen zunehmenden Verlust der Färbbarkeit von sauren Mucopolysacchariden der Knorpelmatrix, c) ein Verschwinden der Zone hypertropher Zellen, gefolgt von einem Schwund aller Zonen, d) eine Zusammenballung von Zellen am Übergang vom Knochen zum Knorpel, e) und schließlich eine Abtrennung des Knorpels vom Knochen. Epsilon-Aminocapronsäure, ein Proteaseinhibitor, und Chloroquine, ein Stabilisator der Lysosommembranen, kehrten diese Wirkungen teilweise um. Explantate, die unter 90% Sauerstoff aufgezogen wurden, zeigten keine Längenabnahme der Knorpelkomponente, einen zunehmenden Verlust der Färbbarkeit, von sauren Mucopolysacchariden der Knorpelmatrix, Verengerung und schließlich Verschwinden der Zone hypertropher Zellen, eine Zusammenballung von acellulären PAS-positiven Bruchstücken am Übergang vom Knochen zum Knorpel und eine deutliche Längenabnahme der Knochenkomponente des Explantates. EACA und Chloroquine kehrten diese Wirkungen teilweise um. Die Rolle der lysosomalen Enzyme als Mediatoren dieser Wirkungen wird besprochen. Es wird vorgeschlagen, daß verschiedene lysosomale Enzyme bei Vitamin A-Überschuß wirksamer sind als unter hohem Sauerstoffdruck.
    Notes: Abstract Epihyseal plate organ cultures grown in medium containing excess vitamin A (100 USP units/ml) showed marked reduction in the length of the cartilage component of the explant, progressive loss of acid mucopolysaccharide stainability of the cartilage matrix, loss of the zone of hypertrophic cells followed by the loss of all zoning, an accumulation of cells at the bone-cartilage junction, and eventual detachment of the cartilage from the bone. Epsilon partially reversed these effects. Explants grown in 90% oxygen showed no reduction in the length of the cartilage component, a progressive loss of acid mucopolysaccharide stainability of the cartilage matrix narrowing and eventual loss of the zone of hypertrophic cells, an accumulation of an acellular, PAS-positive debris at the bone-cartilage junction, and marked reduction in length of the bone component of the explant. EACA and chloroquine partially reversed these effects. The role of lysosomal enzymes in mediating these effects is discussed. It is suggested that different lysosomal enzymes may be operational in the presence of excess vitamin A than in the presence of high oxygen tension.
