  • Search for the lepton-family-number nonconserving decay μ +→e +γ

    • The MEGA experiment, which searched for the muon- and electron-number violating decay μ +→e + γ, is described. The spectrometer system, the calibrations, the data taking procedures, the data analysis, and the sensitivity of the experiment are discussed. The most stringent upper limit on the branching ratio, B(μ + →e + γ)<1.2×10 -11 with 90% confidence, is derived from a likelihood analysis.

  • Average risks of breast and ovarian cancer associated with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations detected in case series unselected for family history: A combined analysis of 22 studies
  • 2003
  • Ingår i: American Journal of Human Genetics. - : Elsevier BV. - 0002-9297. ; 72:5, s. 1117-1130

    • Germline mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 confer high risks of breast and ovarian cancer, but the average magnitude of these risks is uncertain and may depend on the context. Estimates based on multiple-case families may be enriched for mutations of higher risk and/or other familial risk factors, whereas risk estimates from studies based on cases unselected for family history have been imprecise. We pooled pedigree data from 22 studies involving 8,139 index case patients unselected for family history with female (86%) or male (2%) breast cancer or epithelial ovarian cancer (12%), 500 of whom had been found to carry a germline mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2. Breast and ovarian cancer incidence rates for mutation carriers were estimated using a modified segregation analysis, based on the occurrence of these cancers in the relatives of mutation-carrying index case patients. The average cumulative risks in BRCA1-mutation carriers by age 70 years were 65% (95% confidence interval 44%-78%) for breast cancer and 39% (18%-54%) for ovarian cancer. The corresponding estimates for BRCA2 were 45% (31%-56%) and 11% (2.4%-19%). Relative risks of breast cancer declined significantly with age for BRCA1-mutation carriers ( P trend .0012) but not for BRCA2-mutation carriers. Risks in carriers were higher when based on index breast cancer cases diagnosed at <35 years of age. We found some evidence for a reduction in risk in women from earlier birth cohorts and for variation in risk by mutation position for both genes. The pattern of cancer risks was similar to those found in multiple-case families, but their absolute magnitudes were lower, particularly for BRCA2. The variation in risk by age at diagnosis of index case is consistent with the effects of other genes modifying cancer risk in carriers.

  • Interfacial chemistry of Alq3 and LiF with reactive metals
  • 2001
  • Ingår i: Journal of Applied Physics. - : AIP Publishing. - 0021-8979 .- 1089-7550. ; 89:5, s. 2756-2765

    • The electronic structure and chemistry of interfaces between tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq3) and representative group IA and IIA metals, Al, and Al/LiF have been studied by x-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopies. Quantum-chemical calculations at the density functional theory level predict that the Alq3 radical anion is formed upon reaction with the alkali metals. In this case, up to three metal atoms can react with a given Alq3 molecule to form the trivalent anion. The anion formation results in a splitting of the N 1 s core level and formation of a new feature in the previously forbidden energy gap. Virtually identical spectra are observed in the Al/LiF/Alq3 system, leading to the conclusion that the radical anion is also formed when all three of these constituents are present. This is support by a simple thermodynamic model based on bulk heats of formation. In the absence of LiF or similar material, the reaction of Al with Alq3 appears to be destructive, with the deposited Al reacting directly with the quinolate oxygen. We proposed that in those circumstances where the radical anion is formed, it and not the cathode metal are responsible for the electron injection properties. This is borne out by producing excellent injecting contacts when Ag and Au are used as the metallic component of the cathode structure. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

  • Stimulatory activity of anti-peptide antibodies against the second extracellular loop of human M2 muscarinic receptors.
  • 2000
  • Ingår i: Chinese medical journal. - 0366-6999. ; 113:10, s. 867-71
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • OBJECTIVE: To study the activity of anti-peptide antibodies against the second extracellular loop of human M2 muscarinic receptors on cAMP production and inward calcium currents (Ica) in guinea pig ventricular myocytes. A comparison was also made with those of a muscarinic receptor agonist. METHODS: cAMP content was determined by radioimmunoassay and the Ica in guinea pig single ventricular cells were recorded by the whole-cell patch clamp technique. RESULTS: Both the muscarinic receptor agonist, carbachol (Carb 10 mumol/L), and anti-peptide antibodies (Abs 100 nmol/L) could decrease basal cAMP levels (by 46.9% +/- 4.2% and 60.2% +/- 4.6%, respectively) and basal Ica. Both Carb (10 mumol/L) and Abs (100 nmol/L) could also inhibit the isoprenaline-induced (Iso 0.8 mumol/L) increases in cAMP production (from 108.2 +/- 7.0 to 88.4 +/- 7.2 pmol/mg.protein/min for Carb and 88.6 +/- 5.1 pmol/mg.protein/min for Abs, respectively) and the increases in Ica. The muscarinic receptor antagonist atropine (Atr) was able to prevent these effects of Carb and Abs. CONCLUSIONS: Anti-peptide antibodies against an epitope located in the second extracellular loop of human M2 muscarinic receptors, similar to muscarinic receptor agonist, could decrease the basal Ica and beta-receptor agonist stimulated increase of Ica by decreasing the basal and beta-receptor agonist stimulated increase of cAMP production, and therefore could have an effect on their target receptor. These results further suggest that autoimmunity may participate in the pathogenesis of human cardiomyopathy and the second extracellular loop of human M2 muscarinic receptor could be the main immunodominant region.
