- A broad-based interlaboratory study of glycosylation profiles of a reference and modified IgG antibody involving 103 reports from 76 laboratories. Glycosylation is a topic of intense current interest in the development of biopharmaceuticals because it is related to drug safety and efficacy. This work describes results of an interlaboratory study on the glycosylation of the Primary Sample (PS) of NISTmAb, a monoclonal antibody reference material. Seventy-six laboratories from industry, university, research, government, and hospital sectors in Europe, North America, Asia, and Australia submitted a total of 103 reports on glycan distributions. The principal objective of this study was to report and compare results for the full range of analytical methods presently used in the glycosylation analysis of mAbs. Therefore, participation was unrestricted, with laboratories choosing their own measurement techniques. Protein glycosylation was determined in various ways, including at the level of intact mAb, protein fragments, glycopeptides, or released glycans, using a wide variety of methods for derivatization, separation, identification, and quantification. Consequently, the diversity of results was enormous, with the number of glycan compositions identified by each laboratory ranging from 4 to 48. In total, one hundred sixteen glycan compositions were reported, of which 57 compositions could be assigned consensus abundance values. These consensus medians provide community-derived values for NISTmAb PS. Agreement with the consensus medians did not depend on the specific method or laboratory type. The study provides a view of the current state-of-the-art for biologic glycosylation measurement and suggests a clear need for harmonization of glycosylation analysis methods.

- Polyamine depletion causes S phase prolongation, and earlier studies indicate that the elongation step of DNA replication is affected. This led us to investigate the effects of polyamine depletion on enzymes crucial for Okazaki fragment maturation in the two breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and L56Br-C1. In MCF-7 cells, treatment with N(1),N(11)-diethylnorspermine (DENSPM) causes S phase prolongation. In L56Br-C1 cells the prolongation is followed by massive apoptosis. In the present study we show that L56Br-C1 cells have substantially lower basal expressions of two Okazaki fragment maturation key proteins, DNA ligase I and FEN1, than MCF-7 cells. Thus, these two proteins might be promising markers for prediction of polyamine depletion sensitivity, something that can be useful for cancer treatment with polyamine analogues. DENSPM treatment affects the cellular distribution of FEN1 in L56Br-C1 cells, but not in MCF-7 cells, implying that FEN1 is affected by or involved in DENSPM-induced apoptosis.

- P>Purpose: We analyzed clinical and electroencephalography (EEG) outcomes of 13 patients with pharmacoresistant encephalopathy with electrical status epilepticus during sleep (ESES) following epilepsy surgery. Methods: All patients had symptomatic etiology of ESES and preoperative neuropsychological deterioration. Ten patients had daily atypical absences. Clinical outcome was assessed at 6 months and at 2 years after surgery. Clinical and EEG data were reviewed retrospectively. The spike propagation pattern and area and source strength in source montage were analyzed from preoperative and postoperative EEG studies. Key Findings: Preoperative sleep EEG showed electrical status epilepticus during sleep (SES) with one-way interhemispheric propagation in nine patients and with two-way interhemispheric propagation in four. The age of the patients at the time of surgery ranged from 3.6-9.9 years. Focal resection (two patients) or hemispherotomy (one patient with postoperative EEG) either terminated SES or restricted the discharge to one region. Either reduced SES propagation area or source strength was found in four of eight callosotomy patients with postoperative EEG. Of patients who had seizures preoperatively, Engel class I-II seizure outcome was observed in two of three children after focal resection or hemispherotomy and in two of eight children after callosotomy. None of these patients with Engel class I-II outcome had SES with two-way interhemispheric propagation on preoperative EEG. Cognitive deterioration was halted postoperatively in all except one patient. Cognitive catch-up of more than 10 IQ points was seen in three patients, all of whom had shown a first measured IQ of > 75. Significance: Patients with pharmacoresistant ESES based on symptomatic etiology may benefit from resective surgery or corpus callosotomy regarding both seizure outcome and cognitive prognosis.
