Direct effects of methamphetamine on hypertrophy and microtubules in cultured adult rat ventricular myocytes

Morphological alterations occasionally found in the myocardium of methamphetamine (MAP) abusers include hypertrophy, atrophy, disarrangement of myofibrils and fibrosis. These cardiac alterations have been thought to be due to an indirect action of MAP via catecholamines released by MAP administration. However, the direct effect of MAP on cardiomyocytes is not clear. In previous studies, we showed that cell size of isolated adult rat ventricular cardiomyocytes (ARCs) exposed to MAP was larger than that of untreated cells in culture supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (FCS). In this study, to determine further the direct effect of MAP on cardiomyocytes, cultured ARCs were exposed to 0.05, 0.1 and 0.5 mM MAP for 7 days in culture medium without FCS following 6-day normal culture in medium containing FCS. Myocyte size was measured and microtubular (MT) structures which were associated with functional disorder of hearts were immunohistochemically observed using confocal microscopy. The size in treated ARCs significantly increased time- and dose-dependently as compared with untreated cells, but it decreased 7 days after exposure to 0.5 mM MAP. The increases in cell size, however, were lower than that in serum-supplemented cultures. MT structures in intact ARCs appeared as a filamentous network throughout the cytoplasm and around the nucleus. MAP exposure for 3 days promoted MT assembly, but in 7-day treated cells, MT and actin structures were injured. These results suggested that MAP directly induced cellular hypertrophy and might lead to cardiac functional disorder.     

The atlas of dialkylphosphates; assessment of cumulative human organophosphorus pesticides' exposure

Organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) are a group of chemicals with significant health interest, due to their wide spectrum of action and their excessive use both indoors (household) and outdoors (occupationally). The non-specific metabolites of OPs, dialkylphosphates (DAPs), are the most commonly used indicators for the assessment of cumulative OP exposure in humans. This review presents studies on human biomonitoring of OPs in the general population and in occupationally exposed humans. Furthermore, cases of OP intoxication determined by the measurement of DAP metabolites in various biological samples are included. In many studies, urine samples from both the general population and exposed populations have been analyzed mainly in Europe and America, while other matrices such as amniotic fluid, meconium, hair and blood have been less studied. A variety of analytical techniques were used for the determination of DAPs in these matrices. In studies measuring DAPs in urine samples, the detected concentrations ranged from 18 to 830ppb for the general population, while the corresponding values for exposed populations ranged from 29 to 1370ppb. Studies on amniotic fluid indicated DAP levels of 0.3-2.8ppb. Studies on meconium samples showed a concentration range of 0.5-16,000ppb. DAP levels in hair samples ranged from 40 to 165ppb for the general population and from 181.7 to 812.9ppb for the exposed population. Each matrix provides specific information on OP exposure, namely acute, long-term, chronic or prenatal. Meconium and hair can indicate cumulative exposure, while amniotic fluid is an indicator of fetal exposure to xenobiotics. Thus, various biological samples provide a more comprehensive view of OP exposure. In general, dimethylphosphate (DMP) and diethylphosphate (DEP) levels were higher in mainly urine samples, than other methyl and ethyl phosphates. In addition, results in the existing literature are sufficient to demonstrate the difference in levels of DAPs in general and occupationally exposed populations, mainly in urine and hair samples. However, more studies are needed to measure DAP levels in matrices such as amniotic fluid, meconium and hair to add to the literature and confirm existing data.

The effects of weather on homicide

This article examines the correlation between weather features and homicide in. Baltimore, Maryland, over an 8-year span of time. The consistent meteorological-measure of importance is the number of previous days in a row in which the discomfort index (a temperature and humidity measure) has been over the physiologically relevant level of 79. In all cases, however, the variance explained is quite small. The results are used to compare physiological and interactional explanations of weather or heat effects, leading to the conclusion that the repertoire of habits and adaptations available to the individual conditions his or her reactions to physiological stress induced by the weather.     

The effects of marijuana and alcohol usage on handwriting

In this study the handwriting of twelve individuals under the influence of marijuana, alcohol, and a combination of the two was compared with control samples. It was found that marijuana smoking in moderate amounts had less effect on the handwriting of the individuals than did alcohol. It was also found that when the two were combined the gross changes observed were probably due to the effect of the alcohol alone.     

Comparative studies on tissue distributions of organophosphorus, carbamate and organochlorine pesticides in decedents intoxicated with these chemicals

This paper describes the tissue distributions of dichlorvos, an organophosphate, chlorpyrifos-methyl, an organophosphorothioate, methomyl, a carbamate, and endrin, an organochlorine, in three individuals (Cases 1-3) who died after ingesting insecticidal preparations containing these chemicals. In Case 1 involving dichlorvos and chlorpyrifos-methyl, no dichlorvos was detected in most of the blood and tissue samples. Tiny amounts of dichlorvos (0.067 mg/L and 0.027 mg/L) were detected in the vitreous humor and cerebrospinal fluid, respectively. The chlorpyrifos-methyl concentrations in the blood samples were very site-dependent with a range of 0.615-2.24 mg/L. The tissue concentrations of chlorpyrifos-methyl were within the range 0.379-8.60 mg/kg. The total amounts of dichlorvos and chlorpyrifos-methyl in the stomach were 879 and 612 mg, respectively. The serum cholinesterase activity was 3 IU/L/37 degrees C. In Case 2 involving methomyl, the methomyl concentrations in the blood samples were very site-dependent with a range of 0.56-4.75 mg/L. The tissue concentrations of methomyl were 2.61 mg/kg or less, no methomyl being detected in the spleen, liver and kidney. The methomyl concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid and vitreous humor were 5.37 and 4.75 mg/L, respectively. The stomach contained 85 mg methomyl. The serum cholinesterase activity was 73 IU/L/37 degrees C. In Case 3 involving endrin, the victim underwent medical treatment for 7 h after ingesting an endrin preparation. The differences in the endrin concentrations among the blood samples were small, with a range of 0.353-0.615 mg/L. The tissue concentrations of endrin were within the range 0.467-13.3 mg/kg. The endrin in the stomach (66 mg) was adsorbed almost completely on the activated charcoal that was administered for medical treatment.     

Sustainability of the effects of multisystemic therapy for juvenile delinquents in The Netherlands: effects on delinquency and recidivism

Objectives

The present study focused on the sustainability of the effects of Multisystemic Therapy (MST) on delinquency and recidivism.

Methods

A sample of 256 juveniles with severe and persistent antisocial behavior were randomly assigned to MST (147) and Treatment As Usual (TAU) (109) condition. Pre-test assessment took place before the start of MST/control group treatment. Post-test assessment took place at 6 months after termination of the program. Delinquency (parent and adolescent reported) was assessed 6 months after termination of the treatment. Official judicial data were collected to assess recidivism, with a mean length of follow-up of 3.06 years. ANCOVAs and survival analyses were used to test the effectiveness of MST.

Results

The multi-informant data showed that MST is effective in diminishing delinquent behavior as reported by adolescents and parents, with d’s larger than at post-test assessment immediately after ending of the intervention. The official judicial data, however, suggest that there are no differences between MST and TAU in recidivism. Few and inconsistent moderator effects were found.

Conclusions

According to parent and adolescent reports, the beneficial effects of MST were sustained at the follow-up. This was not supported by official data. These results stress the importance of using multi-informant data on delinquency, as each source of information has its own advantages and disadvantages.
