- Using two methods: (1) three-step excitation and (2) single UV photon excitation in an atomic beam with direct observation of the decay of the fluorescence light, we have measured the lifetimes of the Rydberg levels of YbI belonging to the perturbed series 6snp J = 1 levels. The measured values have been interpreted by the multichannel quantum defect theory (MQDT).

- gammadelta T cells can be grouped into discrete subsets based upon their expression of T cell receptor (TCR) variable (V) region families, their tissue distribution, and their specificity. Vdelta2+ T cells constitute the majority of gammadelta T cells in peripheral blood whereas Vdelta1+T cells reside preferentially in skin epithelium and in the intestine. gammadelta T cells are envisioned as first line host defense mechanisms capable of providing a source of immune effector T cells and immunomodulating cytokines such as interleukin (IL) 4 or interferon (IFN) gamma. We describe here the fine specificity of three distinct gammadelta+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) obtained from patients with primary or metastatic colorectal cancer, that could be readily expanded in vitro in the presence of IL-1beta and IL-7. Irrespective of donor, these individual gammadelta T cells exhibited a similar pattern of reactivity defined by recognition of autologous and allogeneic colorectal cancer cells, renal cell cancer, pancreatic cancer, and a freshly isolated explant from human intestine as measured by cytolytic T cell responses and by IFN-gamma release. In contrast, tumors of alternate histologies were not lysed, including lung cancer, squamous cell cancer, as well as the natural/lymphocyte-activated killer cell-sensitive hematopoietic cell lines T2, C1R, or Daudi. The cell line K562 was only poorly lysed when compared with colorectal cancer targets. Target cell reactivity mediated by Vdelta1+ T cells was partially blocked with Abs directed against the TCR, the beta2 or beta7 integrin chains, or fibronectin receptor. Marker analysis using flow cytometry revealed that all three gammadelta T cell lines exhibit a similar phenotype. Analysis of the gammadelta TCR junctional suggested exclusive usage of the Vdelta1/Ddelta3/Jdelta1 TCR segments with extensive (< or = 29 bp) N/P region diversity. T cell recognition of target cells did not appear to be a major histocompatibility complex restricted or to be correlated with target cell expression of heat-shock proteins. Based on the ability of some epithelial tumors, including colorectal, pancreatic, and renal cell cancers to effectively cold target inhibit the lysis of colorectal cancer cell lines by these Vdelta1+ T cell lines, we suggest that intestinal Vdelta1+ T cell lines, we suggest that intestinal Vdelta1+ T cells are capable of recognizing cell surface Ag(s) shared by tumors of epithelial origin.

- Autoantibodies to cardiac beta1-adrenoceptors and M2-muscarinic receptors have mainly been found in the sera of patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). In order to elucidate the pathological significance of these autoantibodies in DCM, it is necessary to understand their characteristic distribution in a healthy population of different genders and ages. The peptides corresponding to the sequences of the second extracellular loops of the human beta1-adrenoceptor and M2-muscarinic receptors were therefore used as antigens to screen the sera of 408 healthy subjects of different ages (ranging from 0.5 to 85 years). Of 408 sera, 41 (10.0%) and 46 (11.3%) recognized the beta1-adrenoceptor and M2-muscarinic receptor peptides respectively. Of the positive sera for beta1-adrenoceptors and M2-muscarinic receptors, up to 63.4% and 56.5% had both anti-beta1-adrenoceptor and anti-M2-muscarinic receptor autoantibodies respectively. The antibody titres of the positive sera of healthy subjects were all of a low level, with a geometric mean titre of 1:42+/-1.9 for anti-beta1-adrenoceptor antibodies and 1:51+/-1.7 for anti-M2-muscarinic receptor antibodies. The frequency of occurrence of autoantibodies to both receptors in the sera of healthy subjects increased significantly with age. In conclusion, the autoantibodies to beta1-adrenoceptors and M2-muscarinic receptors in the sera of healthy subjects are characterized by a low frequency of occurrence and low titre, with the frequency of occurrence increasing with age.
