FSH is a glycoprotein hormone required for the development and maturation of the ovarian follicle and for spermatogenesis. FSH is glycosylated at asparagine residues 52 and 78 on the α-subunit and residues 7 and 24 on the β-subunit. In vitro, the carbohydrate residue at position α 52 is required for signal transduction. To define the contribution of the carbohydrate residues to FSH potency in vivo, we assessed the MCR and in vivo bioactivity of site-specifically deglycosylated recombinant human FSH variants. The removal of the β-subunit carbohydrate residues significantly (P < 0.05) affected the MCR and resulted in significantly (P < 0.05) reduced in vivo bioactivity. For all recombinant human FSH variants, a strong correlation (r = 0.90; P < 0.01) was observed between MCR and in vivo potency, indicating that the circulatory half-life of the hormone appears to be the primary determinant of in vivo bioactivity. Although the β-subunit carbohydrate residues have the greatest effect in determining FSH potency in vivo; the α 52 residue, important in vitro, has no effect on either MCR or in vivo potency. This study highlights the difficulties of translating in vitro results to whole animal physiology. © 1995 by The Endocrine Society.

We have cloned and mapped the chromosomal location of three novel human genes encoding G protein-coupled receptors that we have named GPR6, GPR5, and GPR4. The entire coding region for each of these genes was contained on single exons. Gene GPR6 encoded a receptor that shared closest identity (71% in the transmembrane regions) with the human orphan receptor GPR3 and was localized to chromosome 6 (q21–q22.1). Northern blot analysis revealed that GPR6 transcripts were abundant in the human putamen and to a lesser extent in the frontal cortex, hippocampus, and hypothalamus. Gene GPR5 encoded a receptor that most closely resembled the orphan receptor RBS11 (48% in the transmembrane regions) and the MIP 1α/RANTES receptor (45% in the transmembrane regions) and was localized to chromosome 3 (p21.3–p21.1). Gene GPR4 shared identity (40% in the transmembrane regions) with the human platelet-activating factor receptor and was localized to chromosome 19 (q13.2–q13.3). © 1995, Mary Ann Liebert, Inc.

Cigarette smoking has been consistently associated with osteoporosis1,2and both appendicular3and vertebral4fractures. The increase in fracture risk is thought to be mediated by a decrease in bone density, but this has not been directly assessed for spinal fractures. We studied the relationship between cigarette smoking, bone density, and vertebral deformity in 300 elderly men and women participating in the Dubbo Osteoporosis Epidemiology Study (DOES). The city of Dubbo has a population of approximately 32 000 people and is situated 400 km northwest of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. This community includes approximately 1600 men and 2100 women aged 60 years or older (as of January 1, 1989), 98.6% of whom are white. Subjects were invited to participate in DOES, which commenced in 1989. By the end of 1993, 1950 subjects (62%) of a surviving total target population of 2900 were participating.

View description>>

The human dopamine D5 receptor (DRD5) gene family consists of the DRD5-encoding gene (DRD5) and the pseudogenes Ψ DRD5-1 and ΨDRD5-2. Analysis of the 5′ UTR of DRD5 and homologous regions in the pseudogenes revealed that the nucleotide identity (approx. 95%) extended for 1.9 kb and terminated at a monomeric Alu sequence in each of the pseudogenes. The presence of Alu sequences in the pseudogenes, at this point of divergence with DRD5, suggests that Alu sequences were involved in the evolution of the DRD5 family. This report is the first to describe a possible mechanism involved in the duplication of genes in the G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family. The pseudogenes continue to share identity (approx. 98%) beyond this 5′ UTR point of divergence with DRD5 for at least another 6 kb. Analysis of the 3′ UTR of DRD5 and homologous regions in the pseudogenes revealed that the identity (approx. 95%) extends at least 14 kb, and the identity between the pseudogenes (approx. 98%) extends for at least 18 kb. Thus, the duplication unit that produced the first pseudogene was at least 16 kb, whereas the second pseudogene was at least 28 kb. We have also located two DRD5 pseudogenes in gorilla demonstrating that these closely related pseudogenes were present in a common ancestor of human and gorilla. © 1995.

We employed the polymerase chain reaction and genomic DNA library screening to clone novel human genes, GPR9 and GPR10, and a rat gene, GPR14. GPR9, GPR10, and GPR14 each encode G protein-coupled receptors. GPR10 and GPR14 are intronless within their coding regions, while GPR9 contains at least one intron. The receptor encoded by GPR9 shares the highest identity with human IL-8 receptor type B (38% overall and 53% in the transmembrane regions), followed by IL-8 receptor type A (36% overall and 51% in the transmembrane domains). GPR10 encodes a receptor that shares highest identity with the neuropeptide Y receptor (31% overall and 46% in the transmembrane domains). The receptor encoded by GPR14 shares highest identity with the somatostatin receptor SSTR 4 (27% overall and 41% in the transmembrane domains). Fluorescencein situhybridization analysis localized GPR9 to chromosome 8p11.2-p12 and GPR10 to chromosome 10q25.3-q26. © 1995 by Academic Press, Inc.

The paper discusses the application of the physical theory of diffraction (PTD) to the problem of calculating the effects of terrain on glidepath antennas. The terrain is modelled as connected flat conducting plates resulting in a multiwedge model. The scattering from the surfaces of the model is evaluated using a physical optics (PO) technique whereas the scattering from the edges of the surfaces is obtained from the PTD equivalent currents. The blockage effects are included using double scattered fields. The method of stationary phase is used to simplify the surface integrations in the direction transverse to glidepath for radiated fields. The computed results for the fields and course deviation indication compare well with those obtained using the uniform theory of diffraction.

Extracellular ATP and ADP mediate diverse physiological responses in mammalian cells, in part through the activation of G protein-coupled P2 purinoceptors. The cloning and expression of cDNAs encoding several P2 purinoceptor subtypes have enabled rapid advances in our understanding of the structural and functional properties of these receptors. The current report describes the isolation of a gene from a human genomic library that encodes a protein with the greatest similarity to the human P(2U) purinoceptor, a subtype that is distinguished by its ability to be activated by uridine nucleotides as well as adenine nucleotides. When expressed in a mammalian cell line, this novel receptor is activated specifically by UTP and UDP but not by ATP and ADP. Activation of this uridine nucleotide receptor resulted in increased inositol phosphate formation and calcium mobilization. Fluorescence in situ hybridization revealed that the gene encoding the uridine nucleotide receptor is located in region q13 of the X chromosome. Dendrogram analysis of the G protein-coupled P2 purinoceptors and the uridine nucleotide receptor indicates that these receptors belong to a family that may be more aptly named nucleotide receptors.

The risk of osteoporotic fracture is related to peak bone mass achieved at skeletal maturity and subsequent bone loss. Although premature menopause is a risk factor for osteoporosis, the effect of exposure to endogenous estrogen during a woman’s reproductive years is poorly characterized. We analyzed the relationship between reproductive factors and estrogen exposure on bone mineral density (BMD) and incidence of atraumatic fracture in data from 1091 women (age: 70 ± 7.2 yr; mean ± SD) participating in the Dubbo Osteoporosis Epidemiology Study. Age- and weight-adjusted BMD among women who had used estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) for more than 5 yr was higher at the lumbar spine and femoral neck by 13.7% and 10.2% (P < 0.001), respectively, compared with women who had used ERT for less than 5 yr or nonusers. Duration of exposure to estrogen (years of menstruation plus postmenopausal ERT use) was associated with higher BMD, such that BMD increased by 2-3% for every 10-yr increase in years of estrogen exposure; thus women who menstruated for more than 40 yr had a 6-8% higher BMD than did women who menstruated for less than 30 yr. Higher BMD was also significantly associated with high parity, such that nulliparous women had 5-6% lower BMD than did their peers of the same age and weight. The incidence of atraumatic fractures among non-ERT users was higher than that of ERT-users [odds ratio (OR): 1.06; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.94-1.16] and was significantly lower among parous women than among nulliparous women (OR 0.94; 95% CI: 0.84-0.98) in univariate analysis. Longer duration of menstruation was associated with lower fracture incidence (OR for 1 SD = 6.6 yr: 0.93; 95% CI: 0.86-1.02). Moreover, when all of these factors were considered simultaneously, parity remained a significant determinant of fracture as well as femoral neck BMD. We conclude that high parity and longer duration of exposure to estrogen, either through natural menstruation or postmenopausal...

Following the cloning of the opioid receptors μ, κ, and δ, we conducted a search for related receptors. Using oligonucleotides based on the opioid and also the structurally related somatostatin receptors, we amplified genomic DNA using the polymerase chain reaction and isolated fragments of novel G protein-coupled receptor genes. Two of these gene fragments designated clones 12 and 11 were used to isolate the full-length genes. The intronless coding sequences of these genes, named GPR7 and GPR8, shared 70% identity with each other, and each shared significant similarity with the sequences encoding transmembrane regions of the opioid and somatostatin receptors. GPR7 was mapped to chromosome 10q11.2-q21.1 and GPR8 chromosome 20q13.3. Northern blot analysis using human mRNA demonstrated expression of GPR7 mainly in cerebellum and frontal cortex, while GPR8 was located mainly in the frontal cortex. In situ hybridization revealed expression of GPR7 in the human pituitary. A partial sequence of the mouse orthologue of GPR7 was obtained, and in situ hybridization demonstrated expression in discrete nuclei of brain, namely suprachiasmatic, arcuate, and ventromedial nuclei of hypothalamus. A stable cell line expressing the GPR7 gene was created, but expression levels of the receptor were low. The available pharmacology indicated binding to several opioid drugs such as bremazocine, levorphanol, and β-FNA, but not to the opioid receptor subtype-selective μ, δ, or κ agonists. © 1995 Academic Press, Inc.

Analysis is presented of the characteristic impedance, attenuation and power-handling capability of a rectangular waveguide with two symmetrically placed double L-septa (TSPDL). The Ritz-Galerkin method is used for the analysis and the results obtained are compared with those of a rectangular waveguide with two symmetrically placed double ridges (TSPDR). The results show that the characteristic impedance of TSPDL is close to that of TSPDR with the same geometric parameters. They also indicate that the actual power-handling capability of TSPDL is similar to that of TSPDR.
