    Notes: Abstract. Transbilayer movement of erythrocyte membrane cholesterol is impaired in patients affected with essential hypertension. This is an inherited disorder, but environmental factors are also involved. Dietary fats might play a role in the prevention and/or treatment of such abnormality in the kinetic pools of membrane cholesterol. We tested this hypothesis by using a diet (in which 30% of the energy came from fat) rich in olive oil or in high-oleic sunflower oil (as natural sources of monounsaturated fatty acids, MUFAs) and determining their influence on the movement of cholesterol into the lipid bilayer of the erythrocyte membrane after a four-week period. We concluded that dietary olive oil is helpful in normalizing the impaired transbilayer movement of membrane cholesterol in erythrocytes of eight normocholesterolaemic and eight hypercholesterolaemic hyperten sive patients. However, the effects cannot be attributed exclusively to the content of MUFAs (mainly oleic acid) in the diet, as high-oleic sunflower oil was unable to induce favourable changes.

    Notes: A method for measuring the nonlinear coefficients of piezoceramic resonators with low signal excitation is presented. It consists of the intermodulation produced by two signals with variable amplitude and closely spaced in frequency at the neighborhood of the resonance, performing the measurement of the intermodulation distortion signals at frequencies near excitation. This method is highly sensitive and allows nonlinear measurements to be taken at relatively low levels, avoiding thermal effects. The module and argument of the nonlinear increase in the impedance can be determined by the analysis of these measurements. This method is compared with other previously used methods, and the advantages of the proposed method are analyzed. The described nonlinear coefficient allows us to understand and foresee the nonlinear behavior near the resonance: amplitude-frequency shift effect, decrease of mechanical quality factor Q, and the jump phenomenon observed in frequency sweeps. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract  An improved method for Blastocystis hominis culture and axenization was developed in the present study. Stool samples were cultured in prereduced Boeck-Drbohlav NHI modified medium (with several modifications) supplemented with antibiotics (0.4% ampicillin, 0.1% streptomycin, 0.0006% amphotericin B). Axenization was performed by the combination of partial purification of B. hominis by Ficoll-metrizoic acid gradient and inoculation in fresh medium containing active antibiotics against remaining bacteria. A total of 25 strains were obtained by this procedure. The time required for axenization ranged between 3 and 5 weeks. The generation time of axenic strains ranged from 6.6 to 12.1 h (mean ± SD 10.1 ± 1.8 h) and the mean number of generations was 2.5 ± 0.6 h per 24 h. The size of vacuolar and ameboid forms found in stools and in culture was similar. The special formulation of the medium used reduced the generation time and did not modify the cellular size as compared with fecal forms.

    Notes: Abstract The kinetics of in vitro encystation of Blastocystis hominis was studied over 9 days. The differentiation between trophic (TF) and cyst forms (CF) was determined by differential counts before and after treatment with distilled water. A cytochemistry study using acridine orange and Calcofluor white wet-mount preparations of CF was carried out. The growth curves of TF and CF were related because the decrease in TF was followed by an increase in CF, and vice versa. The maximum of CF counts was obtained on the 6th or 7th day. Using the differential acridine orange stain, two subpopulations of CF, yellow-orange fluorescent cells or precysts and green fluorescent cells or cysts, were detected and their curves were also related. CF was stained by Calcofluor white, which suggested the existence of β-(1-4)-glycosyl residues in the wall cysts of B. hominis.

    Notes: Abstract The protein profile and the antigenic cross-reactivity of 18 axenic isolates of Blastocystis hominis obtained from symptomatic patients with chronic diarrhea (14 isolates) showing no evidence of parasitic etiology and from patients with acute diarrhea attributable in 2 cases to Salmonella spp. were analyzed. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of soluble proteins showed the existence of a common profile composed of 31 bands, with molecular weights ranging between 24 and 〉200 kDa, and minor differences in the proteins of 149, 118, 106, 50, 48, 47, and 30 kDa. These differences allowed us to classify the strains into three related patterns (I–III). In an indirect immunofluorescence assay, all strains were serologically identical, but two related antigenic groups (1 and 2) were found in double-immunodiffusion and Western-blot studies. The isolates of protein patterns I and II belonging to antigenic group 1 were isolated from patients with chronic diarrhea, whereas the four isolates from patients with acute diarrhea were clustered in protein pattern III and in antigenic group 2. These results confirm the protein and antigenic heterogeneity of B. hominis and the existence of demes with different pathogenic roles.

    Description: Oak gall wasps (Cynipidae: Cynipini: Plagiotrochus) that induce galls on Quercus reproduce by alternate sexual and parthenogenetic generations (Pujade-Villar et al., 2001). However, a few species are obligatory parthenogenetic (Abe, 1998) or show the facultative alternation of generations (Folliot, 1964).
