- The human homologue of Drosophila patched (PTCH), located at chromosome 9q22.3, was recently identified as a candidate tumor suppressor gene for familial and sporadic basal cell carcinomas. Squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) of the skin display allelic loss in this chromosomal region, which, in addition to the PTCH gene, contains the DNA repair gene xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A (XPA). Patients with xeroderma pigmentosum are predisposed to non-melanoma skin tumors because of deficient excision repair of ultraviolet-induced DNA damage. Mutation analysis by single-strand conformation analysis and direct DNA sequencing of all 23 exons of the PTCH gene and all six exons of the XPA gene in 14 SCCs did not reveal structural alterations in any of these genes. Additionally, analysis of PTCH expression by in situ hybridization in SCCs revealed no evidence of upregulation of PTCH mRNA, confirming the lack of mutations in this gene. These findings suggest that another, yet to be identified gene or genes on chromosome 9q are involved in SCC tumorigenesis.

- A flow-foliated felsic ignimbrite constitutes the uppermost lithological unit of the 1.58 Gyr anorogenic magmatic rocks in SW Finland. The ignimbrite is derived from an explosive eruption of hot (approximate to 950 degrees C) phenocryst-bearing A-type (ra

- During daily work in hospitals a large amount of clinical data is produced each day. Totally computerized patient records are not yet widely used but a large part of essential information is already stored on computer files. These include laboratory test results, diagnoses, codes for operations, codes of histopathological diagnoses and maybe even the patient's medication. Accordingly, these databases include much clinical knowledge that would be useful for clinicians.Laboratories try to support clinicians by producing reference values for laboratory tests. It is, of course, necessary information but, however, it does not give very much information about the weight of evidence that an abnormal laboratory test will give in special clinical settings.We have developed a software package - DiagaiD - in order to build a smart link between patient databases and clinicians. It utilizes neural network-based machine learning techniques and can produce decision support which meets the special needs of clinicians. From example cases it can learn clinically relevant transformations from original numeric values to logical values. By using data transformation together with a single layer perceptron it is possible to build nonlinear models from a set of preclassified example cases.In this paper, we use two small datasets to show how this scheme works in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis and in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction. Results are compared with those obtained using logistic regression or backpropagation neural networks. The performance of our neuro-fuzzy tool seemed to be slightly better in these two materials but the differences did not reach statistical significance.

- Steam-pretreated willow has been found to be a suitable substrate for ethanol production in Sweden. The production of Trichoderma reesei cellulases on steam-pretreated willow (SPW) of varying cellulose content has been studied. Batch fermentations were performed in shake flasks, and in 4- and 22-l fermenters. SPW was found to be a suitable carbon source for cellulase production. At an initial solids concentration corresponding to 10 g/l cellulose, the yield was 108 filter paper units (FPU)/g cellulose after 3 days in the 22-l fermenter However, the yield was below 100 FPU/g cellulose in the shake flasks and 4-l fermenter The solid residue of enzymatically hydrolysed SPW was found to be nearly as good a substrate as SPW, although the cellulose content was as low as 20% in this hydrolysis residue. Using delignified SPW, the yield of cellulases was low, indicating that lignin does not inhibit cellulase production. By applying a pressure of 1.7 bar in the fermenter, the initial fermentation rate was increased. The productivity was increased from 12.2 FPU/l/h to 16.7 FPU/l/h, due to the higher level of dissolved oxygen at the higher pressure. Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd.
