WEDNESDAY, Nov. 2 (HealthDay News) -- A compound currently used to stop bleeding episodes in a subset of hard-to-treat hemophilia patients also seems to be effective in preventing bleeds before they start.
Although this study, published in the Nov. 3 edition of the New England Journal of Medicine, was a small one and didn't last long, the results do raise the possibility that, over time, this type of use will also prevent the much-feared joint damage that is a hallmark of the condition.
"This study shows that it is at least possible to keep these people relatively healthy, without bleeds, by using chronic prophylactic [preventive] agents," said Dr. Thomas Harrington, director of the Adult Hemophilia and Adult Sickle Cell programs at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. He was not involved with the study.
The research was funded by Baxter BioScience, which makes FEIBA (Factor VIII Inhibitor Bypassing Activity), the agent tested in this trial.
Most people with hemophilia have a genetic defect in a clotting factor known as factor VIII. This results in excessive bleeding and bruising either as the result of traumas -- even small ones -- or sometimes occurring spontaneously.
About half of the bleeds occur in the joints and can lead to painful and debilitating joint disease.
Clotting factor concentrates that contain factor VIII are extremely effective both to stop bleeds when they happen (called "on-demand" treatment) and to prevent bleeds when given three or so times a week.
The problem is that about one-third of hemophilia patients develop antibodies to factor VIII, meaning the compound just stops working.
So-called "bypassing agents" have been developed for patients who have factor VIII inhibitors, but these aren't nearly as effective and have only been used on an on-demand basis.
The authors designed this study t

Book information
- Published: May 1996
- Imprint: ACADEMIC PRESS
"The individual sections of the book are nicely balanced and provide detailed background information as well as outlines of the application and use of many of the programs... Coverage of protein structural predictions is excellent and the individual algorithms are explained in sufficient detail... Large-scale sequence similarity comparisons, detection of distant homologies, and pattern recognition are covered. This section of the book should be particularly useful to new researchers in this area and serve as a reference to those actively involved in the field... The coverage [of the third section] is outstanding and should serve as a useful reference to individuals interested in multiple alignments and phylogenetic tress. The breadth of topics covered by this volume of Methods in Enzymology is outstanding and the book should become very popular among a variety of biological investigators."
Praise for the Volume, --MARK A. BATZER, Louisiana State University Medical Center
"The Methods in Enzymology series represents the gold-standard."
Praise for the Series, --NEUROSCIENCE
"Incomparably useful."
"It is a true 'methods' series, including almost every detail from basic theory to sources of equipment and reagents, with timely documentation provided on each page."
"The series has been following the growing, changing and creation of new areas of science. It should be on the shelves of all libraries in the world as a whole collection."
"The appearance of another volume in that excellent series, Methods in Enzymology, is always a cause for appreciation for those who wish to successfully carry out a particular technique or prepare an enzyme or metabolic intermediate without the tiresome prospect of searching through unfamiliar literature and perhaps selecting an unproven method which is not easily reproduced."
"If we had some way to find the work most often consulted in the laboratory, it could well be the multi-volume series Methods in Enzymology...a great work."
"A series that has established itself as a definitive reference for biochemists."

Brian Nicholson, Deseret News
Alexander Horn and Lucy Santana, ages 7 and 8, respectively, are students at the Dual Immersion Academy (DIA) in Salt Lake City. This week they were made aware of the dangers they could face if they do not follow the strict instructions they received at school: "do not talk to strangers on the Internet while navigating the Web."
With fun characters like Netty and Webster, students at DIA were taught — in age-appropriate language — the risks they face when they interact with enemies like Numbut, Dogle, Hot-head, Follow Your Fiona and Spamozoid.
Each character, with their specific features, were easily identified by the students. Through vey specific examples, they showed the kids that they should not share personal information that reveals their age, where they live, the name of family members, or photos.
"We should not open any window that says, for example, open here to win a million dollars,´ because most of them will require our personal information and we should not give it!" said Alexander.
Meanwhile, Tommy Dardon and Karla Moreno, both 8 years old, said they have Internet access at home, but from now on, they will be more careful because they should not trust anyone they do not know. If they ever feel harassed by a stranger, they should immediately contact their parents or an adult close to them.
The Internet today is an integral part of the environment in which all children operate. The vast majority of them have access to the Internet either at home or at school.
Social networks
According to Consumer Reports.org., of the 20 million minors who actively used Facebook in the past year, 7.5 million, or one third, were under 13 years of age and are not supposed to have access to the site.
Among young users, more than 5 million were 10 and under, and their accounts were largely unsupervised by their parents.
Social networks make it easy for children to connect with their friends and with others who have similar interests. Children socialize and express their concerns in their posts, comments and photos.
A survey of young people ages 10 to 17 showed that 34 percent have put their own name, their phone number, address or name of school in their social pages that can be opened by anyone. Forty-five percent revealed their date of birth and 18 percent included their own photo.
Parents and teachers believe that the Internet is primarily an educational tool. However, Kids.net shows that children are using the Internet as a fun way to play, send messages and chat. Only two-thirds of children think that helps their learning and one-third say they would use it at home to get ahead in their school assignments if they get sick.
Facts show that more than 90 percent of 2-year-olds in the United States have a history on the Internet. At 5 years, the vast majority interact with a computer or tablet device. And between 7 and 8 years, they regularly play video games online. All these activities carry a constant danger of child predators.
Representatives of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), with the help of the Boys & Girls Club and sponsored by Comcast, are visiting elementary schools in the Salt Lake Valley to show students the imminent dangers they face when they give their personal information or chat to strangers.
Through the program NetSmartz.org, students and parents learn to make wise decisions when faced with the reality of the world of social networking and the Internet.
Renata Allred, a parent who participated in a workshop at the Boys & Girls Club, said that although she was always aware of the activities of their kids when they are navigating the Internet, she never imagined that if they were playing online that they were totally exposed to predators.

There is a level of natural chemistry and camaraderie that you simply do not mess with...
When all the smoke and dust settled the Phoenix Suns opted to make the move to retain chemistry, flexibility, and the current roster that is responsible for the most surprising story in the NBA this season. In the end the Suns (32-21) did not have to make a move even though they had some cards in their hands.
The Emeka Okafor Card was a solid one to have, but in the end if there wasn't a great move to make did the team lose anything by not playing that card?
Obviously the answer is no all the while talking heads and radio hosts will have to fill time slots or airwaves with trade banter about the team that did not make a move with one if the better "assets" this season. They will question the team and float out their arm-chair GM theories that are golden and would have made the team an instant title contender, because of course they will. Why not? That is their job. Objectivity does not waste any precious moments in the world of sports.
Nearly every year the San Antonio Spurs and other wise contenders look around, ponder options, and maybe tweak things every so slightly. We saw that this year with the Nando De Colo trade that brought them back Austin Daye.
Those teams don't fret with the idea of the "big move" that steals the headlines. Rarely do those headlines pave the streets of a Championship Parade.
Over the off-season the Suns did their subtle tweaking by adding Miles Plumlee, Gerald Green, Ish Smith, and drafting Archie Goodwin. They made their splash landing Eric Bledsoe for a veteran role player and a pick. Like a thief in the night Ryan McDonough moved experience for youth and draft picks while forming one of the ten best teams in the NBA 53 games through this season. He was questioned then and proved to be ahead of us all. Again, he will be questioned, but this time for the lack of a move when he had more in his arsenal to work with this time.
This is not a video game.
NBA General Managers do not trade two 76 ratings for an 82, then trade the 82 with a pick for a 90, and then become a virtual contender off the couch.
What McDonough did was brave and in all likelihood the correct course. He sat down in the make believe fire the media created when he easily could have stood up. As a first year General Manager one of the hardest things to do is not make every move that presents itself as a potential season changing play. Look through history, even just recent history, first year or inexperienced General Managers like to swing big and often come up with nothing but air.
Sitting back with the sixth best team in the toughest conference in the NBA right now was the right decision. Especially with Eric Bledsoe potentially around the corner from a return to action.
The Thunder, Clippers, Trail Blazers, Suns, and Mavericks did nothing while the Spurs, Rockets, and Warriors made very subtle adjustments to their rotation. Who were the most active? The Bucks, 76ers, Kings, Bobcats, and Nets... There is a theme there.
Time will tell if the Suns made the right decision on sitting down and doing nothing, but I am trusting the guy that turned a 25 win roster into a playoff contender in less than a calendar year.
Reports and rumors are out there saying the Detroit Pistons are willing to trade Josh Smith. Would he be a good fit for the Phoenix Suns?
There's just a few hours left in the 2014 NBA trade deadline and you better believe smarter people than you and I are sitting in an office on Jefferson Ave. thinking long and hard about stuff like this. But hey, we don't get paid to make decisions. We just have fun thinking about them before they happen and opining on them after.
So, let's kill some time running this through the grey matter mill. How would you feel about Josh Smith on the Suns?
First, the report from Detroit:
Honestly, I can see Josh Smith having value to several NBA teams as a power forward who isn't asked to bear much of the scoring load (Charlotte, Houston, Cleveland, etc.), but at this point the best path forward for the Detroit Pistons is anything that gets them a do-over of its disastrous decision to sign Smith to play small forward alongside young bigs Greg Monroe and Andre Drummond.
Smith was just signed to a $54m, four-year contract by Joe Dumars this summer. He obviously isn't a good fit with their other bigs and is miscast as a full time small forward. Who knew!?!
The Suns clearly have the assets to make a run at him and I won't get into the salary cap stuff, but let's just assume it's doable. I'm confident it is and don't feel like playing Trade Machine Wizard. That's not the point here.
The question is about fit.
Josh Smith is both a flawed and incredibly skilled basketball player. As power forward in Atlanta he played at a fringe all-star level. He's super athletic. Plays great defense. Passes the ball and can run and finish.
He gets into trouble when he has to space the floor and when he takes bad mid and long range shots.
But I have to tell you, the idea of Josh playing the four with the Suns Slash Brothers backcourt is intriguing to me. He's still only 28-years-old and would cost $13m/yr for three more seasons. If Smith, Bledsoe and Dragic are your core and you have the role players and picks the Suns have...well, like I said I'm intrigued.
Imagine Frye, Smith, Tucker, Dragic and Bledsoe on the floor. FAST. DEFENSE. SPACING. PASSING. TOUGH. It doesn't work quite as well with Plumlee due to the spacing issues but both Miles and Len have potential to at least stretch to 15 feet and you can play Smith at the three against guys like Durant and LeBron with Frye on the floor for spacing. There's a lot of options here and a much better fit than in Detroit.
Obviously, from the Suns side you don't want to give up too much and honestly, I'd rather have Thad Young in that role if possible.
But guys with Smith's talent don't fall off trees and certainly not at the price the Pistons would likely be asking.
What do you think?

* Maliki seeking arms, regional role in Washington talks
* First visit since Dec. 2011, when U.S. troops withdrew
* Surge in violence a concern, Maliki links it to Syria
* Iraqi leader seeks mediating role with Iran, sources say
By Ahmed Rasheed
BAGHDAD, Oct 29 (Reuters) - Iraqi Prime Minister Nurial-Maliki flew to Washington on Tuesday, seeking urgent militarysupplies to fight an upsurge in sectarian violence spilling overthe Syrian border.
He will also present himself to President Barack Obama as apotential mediator for him with Iran and Tehran's Syrian ally,Bashar al-Assad, Iraqi sources said - though U.S. officialsplayed down the prospect of Maliki playing such a role.
Two years after his last visit, as U.S. troops were leavingIraq, Iraq is suffering bombings on a scale not seen since thebloody sectarian chaos of 2006-08. Seeking a third term nextyear, he also seems to be looking to the shifting diplomaticgeometry in the Middle East to help entrench his position.
Speaking at Baghdad airport before flying out for three daysof talks in Washington that will culminate at the White House onFriday, Maliki said it was "urgent" that Iraq receive "offensiveweapons to combat terrorism and hunt armed groups".
He stressed a need for helicopters and other equipment.Aides have also cited drones as useful for patrolling a borderacross which the Shi'ite-led government says al Qaeda and otherSunni groups fighting President Assad in Syria are bringing inmen and arms that have killed more than 7,000 Iraqis this year.
"We will discuss security and intelligence in addition toarms needed by the military to fight terrorism," said Maliki,who will meet Vice President Joe Biden on Wednesday and DefenseSecretary Chuck Hagel with senior U.S. generals on Thursday.
He cited the threat from Syria was high on his agenda anddistanced himself from comments by aides who called for fasterdelivery of F-16 jets, due to arrive in about a year. Suchaircraft were not a priority to counter militants, he said.
Maliki's Shi'ite-led government says al Qaeda is bent onsecuring territory in Iraq, where minority Sunni Muslims are themain community in the desert next to Syria, and wants todestabilise Baghdad to further its goal of ousting Assad.
However, many Iraqi Sunnis, long dominant until U.S. forcesousted Saddam Hussein in 2003, accuse Maliki of using al Qaedaviolence to justify excluding their community from power.
The United States, which fostered the electoral system thatput Maliki in office in 2006 at the head of a Shi'ite coalition,has watched with dismay as he has ignored its calls to buildconsensus and has moved closer to Shi'ite Tehran.
The prime minister, who faced sharp U.S. criticism in Marchfor letting Iran fly weapons and fighters over Iraq to helpAssad in Syria, may seek to turn his pivotal position in theregion to advantage as the fallout from the Arab uprisings of2011 and Iran's nuclear programme shakes up U.S. strategy.
Maliki made no direct mention of his potential to act as ago-between but several Iraqi officials and politicians toldReuters that he would be discussing that issue in Washington.
"Maliki's message to the Americans is that Iraq is the bestbroker between Tehran and the West to resolve the nuclearissue," a member of Maliki's State of Law coalition said.
A senior Shi'ite official close to Maliki said: "Everythingwill be in one basket: Iraq, Iran and Syria."
With the Middle East increasingly divided between a Sunnibloc dominated by Saudi Arabia and Shi'ites looking to non-ArabIran, Maliki could play a central role - as a Shi'ite Arableader of a large and central state, who lived for many years inexile in Iran and Syria and has close ties in Washington.
A Shi'ite Iraqi former minister said U.S. officials also sawa closer alliance with Iraq as a possible offset to theestrangement between the United States and Saudi Arabia, whichhas been angered by Obama's willingness to talk to Iran's newPresident Hassan Rouhani and his failure to attack Assad.
"America wants Iraq to play a role in solving the Syriancrisis," the former minister said. "The U.S. sees Iraq as apotential balancing point in the Iranian-Saudi conflict."
However, U.S. officials, asked about such statements, saidthey saw little need for mediation with Iran. One noted thatObama spoke to Rouhani a month ago in the highest-levelbilateral contact since 1979 and saw positive developments fromthe latest nuclear discussions between Tehran and U.N. powers.
"I don't think there is going to be any major pitch," theofficial said. "It certainly is not going to be the centrepieceof the visit."
Ramzy Mardini at the Iraq Institute for Strategic Studiessaid Maliki may be promoting himself as a regional player toconsolidate his domestic support before an election in April.
"Maliki's road to re-election runs through Washington andTehran," Mardini said. "There's great political interest to makehimself important to both sides, whether the focus is Iran'snuclear programme or negotiating a political settlement inSyria. Maliki wants a regional diplomatic role because it mostlikely assures his third term as prime minister."

Reward for High Public Office: Asian and Pacific Rim States (Routledge Research in Comparative Politics)
The choices made by governments about how to reward their top employees reveal a great deal about their values and their assumptions about governing. This book examines rewards of high public office in seven Asian political systems, a particularly rich set of cases for exploring the causes and consequences of the rewards of high public office, having some of the most generous and most meagre reward packages in the world.There are a range of economic, political and cultural explanations for the rewards provided by governments. Likewise, these choices are assumed to have a number of consequences, including variations in the levels of corruption and economic success.Reward for High Public Office includes case studies focusing on Australia, China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, New Zealand and Singapore. It will interest students and researchers of politics, public administration and Asian studies.

Article: Fast PCR thermal cycling device[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A novel flow-through device for performing fast PCR thermal cycling is presented. The thermal gradient thermal cycling device is comprised of layers of highly thermally conducting material separated by insulating layers. Channels etched in the conducting and insulating layers create one continuous path through the device. When the device is held between platens at different temperatures and PCR sample mix is pumped through it, every fluid particle undergoes the time-temperature protocol necessary for PCR but with a temperature change rate not possible with conventional cyclers. Ultrafast thermal cycling makes it ideal for bio-defense applications, such as the instantaneous bio-aerosol agent identification system under development for the Department of Homeland Security. Its compact size and simplicity of use make it a natural choice for diagnostics, forensics, food and water testing and other DNA testing applications. Herein we describe the design and fabrication of the device developed for IBADS and the subsequent performance with various assays using plasmid and genomic template DNA. Performance under some circumstances was exceptional: Amplification rates of up to two decades per minute were recorded and total amplification of up to eight decades in 30 cycles was seen. We discuss how to optimize the performance of a device that pushes PCR to its fundamental limits and review a wide variety of performance data.IEEE Sensors Journal 06/2008; 8(5-8):476 - 487.

ABSTRACT: Laboratory mice (Mus musculus) and rats (Rattus norvegicus) are the most commonly used animals in biomedical and behavioral research. Today, there are many inbred, outbred, hybrid, congenic, and genetically modified mouse and rat models that have made essential contributions to advances in the diagnosis, prevention, and control of human disease. Routine genetic monitoring of these animals is essential to their successful use. Herein, we discuss the basic structure of the mouse and rat genome; common breeding protocols to preserve innate and exogenous genetic backgrounds; and the methods used for creating specific types of mutant model, research applications, and current genotyping methods.12/2007: pages 179-186;
Article: Big Results from Small Samples: Evaluation of Amplification Protocols for Gene Expression Profiling[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Microarrays have revolutionized many areas of biology due to our technical ability to quantify tens of thousands of transcripts within a single experiment. However, there are still many areas that cannot benefit from this technology due to the amount of biological material needed for microarray analysis. In response to this demand, chemistries have been developed that boast the capability of generating targets from nanogram amounts of total RnA, reflecting minimal amounts of biological material, on the order of several hundred or thousand cells. Herein, we describe the evaluation of four chemistries for RnA amplification in terms of reproducibility, sensitivity, accuracy, and comparability to results from a single round of T7 amplification. No evidence for false-positive measurements of differential expression was observed. In contrast, clear differences between chemistries in sensitivity and accuracy were detected. PCR validation showed an interaction of probe sequence on the array and target labeling chemistry, resulting in a chemistry-dependent probe set sensitivity varying over an order of magnitude.Journal of biomolecular techniques: JBT 08/2007; 18(3):150-61.
Article: Transcriptional profiling of C57 and DBA strains of mice in the absence and presence of morphine[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background The mouse C57BL/6 (C57) and DBA/2J (DBA) inbred strains differ substantially in many aspects of their response to drugs of abuse. The development of microarray analyses represents a genome-wide method for measuring differences across strains, focusing on expression differences. In the current study, we carried out microarray analysis in C57 and DBA mice in the nucleus accumbens of drug-naïve and morphine-treated animals. Results We identified mRNAs with altered expression between the two strains. We validated the mRNA expression changes of several such mRNAs, including Gnb1, which has been observed to be regulated by several drugs of abuse. In addition, we validated alterations in the enzyme activity of one mRNA product, catechol-O-methyltransferase (Comt). Data mining of expression and behavioral data indicates that both Gnb1 and Comt expression correlate with aspects of drug response in C57/DBA recombinant inbred strains. Pathway analysis was carried out to identify pathways showing significant alterations as a result of treatment and/or due to strain differences. These analyses identified axon guidance genes, particularly the semaphorins, as showing altered expression in the presence of morphine, and plasticity genes as showing altered expression across strains. Pathway analysis of genes showing strain by treatment interaction suggest that the phosphatidylinositol signaling pathway may represent an important difference between the strains as related to morphine exposure. Conclusion mRNAs with differing expression between the two strains could potentially contribute to strain-specific responses to drugs of abuse. One such mRNA is Comt and we hypothesize that altered expression of Comt may represent a potential mechanism for regulating the effect of, and response to, multiple substances of abuse. Similarly, a role for Gnb1 in responses to multiple drugs of abuse is supported by expression data from our study and from other studies. Finally, the data support a role for semaphorin signaling in morphine effects, and indicate that altered expression of genes involved in phosphatidylinositol signaling and plasticity might also affect the altered drug responses in the two strains.BMC Genomics 03/2007; 8(1).

ABSTRACT: Over the past several years, microarray technology has evolved into a critical component of any discovery-based program. Since 1999, the Association of Biomolecular Resource Facilities (ABRF) Microarray Research Group (MARG) has conducted biennial surveys designed to generate a profile of microarray service laboratories and, more importantly, an overview of technology development and implementation. Survey questions addressed instrumentation, protocols, staffing, funding, and work flow in a microarray facility. Presented herein are the results of the MARG 2005 survey; where possible, trends in the field are discussed and compared to data collected from previous surveys.Journal of biomolecular techniques: JBT 05/2006; 17(2):176-86.

ABSTRACT: Western blots using an antibody which recognizes the orphanin FQ/nociceptin (OFQ/N) receptor reveals a band at approximately 69 kD in several cell lines, including the Raji human B cell lymphoma cell line. RT-PCR confirms the presence of this receptor in the Raji cells. Binding studies revealed a high affinity [125I][Tyr14]OFQ/N site in the Raji cells. The affinity of [125I][Tyr14]OFQ/N in the Raji cells (KD 68.4 pM) was similar to that in the transfected receptor (KD 36.7 pM). Its selectivity profile also was quite similar. OFQ/N competed binding quite potently (Ki 65 pM), as did [Tyr14]OFQ/N (Ki 33 pM). Traditional opioids displayed no appreciable affinity for the binding at any concentration examined, with the exception of naloxone benzoylhydrazone, which had only a very modest affinity. The receptors in the Raji cells were functionally active. OFQ/N inhibited forskolin-stimulated cyclase by 72% with an IC50 value of approximately 1 nM.

Article: Quantitative Structure Activity Relationships for Substituted Naloxone Benzoylhydrazones. 4′‐substituted Naloxone Benzoylhydrazones[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Quantitative structure activity relationships (QSAR) were determined for the Ki values measured for the interaction of 4′-substituted naloxone benzoylhydrazones with κ1, κ3, μ1, μ2, and δ receptors. Based on a comparison of the estimated and observed values of Ki for two groups which were not in the data sets used to obtain the initial QSAR the latter give very satisfactory estimates for all but the δ receptor. The validity of the QSAR are further supported by a comparison of the observed and calculated orders of Ki values for these two groups. The effects of the 4′ substituent on Ki are similar for the μ1 and μ2 receptors. No other similarities were observed. The results suggest that substituents of the type CH2Z and NHZ where Z has large values of the localized electrical effect parameter, σ1, should exhibit a ratio of Ki(κ3) to Ki(κ1) greater than 30. This is supported by the result for the acetylamino group. For all receptors but δ and possibly κ3 the 4′ substituent seems to be binding to a hydrophobic region of the molecular framework through Van der Waals interactions. The segmental parameterization seems to be a better choice for the representation of steric effects than a monoparametric parameterization. The intermolecular force model is a useful alternative to the Hansch-Fujita model. The QSAR are reliable for all but the δ receptor where the results are very uncertain.Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships 12/1998; 17(02):109 - 121.

ABSTRACT: Naloxone benzoylhydrazone (NalBzoH) has proved a valuable tool in the investigation of opioid receptor subtypes. In the present study, we have examined a series of derivatives of NalBzoH in which substitutions have been made on the benzoyl ring. Overall, we see dramatic effects on the binding affinities of derivatives against the various opioid receptor subtypes. Although the range of affinities against the mu receptors is quite modest, ranges of the others vary almost 30-fold for kappa3, 50-fold for kappa1 and 100-fold for delta and kappa2 binding. Few substituted derivatives display greater affinity than NalBzoH for any of the receptors, except for delta sites where several derivatives have affinities almost tenfold greater than NalBzoH. Along with the wide variations in affinity, the compounds also appear to exhibit widely divergent activities in traditional biosasays. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.Synapse 10/1996; 24(2):193 - 201.

ABSTRACT: To help characterize kappa3 receptors and establish their relationship to traditional mu and delta receptors, we have generated a kappa3-selective monoclonal antibody. Monoclonal antibodies were raised against BE(2)-C cells, a human neuroblastoma cell line containing mu, kappa3, and delta opioid receptors. Of the 5,000 hybridoma cell lines screened, approximately 2,000 hybridomas tested positive against BE(2)-C membranes by ELISA, but only 98 of these were negative against a different neuroblastoma cell line lacking opioid receptors. Supernatants from one hybridoma, 8D8, inhibited up to 90% of 3H-NalBzoH (kappa3) binding without affecting 3H-DAMGO (mu) or 3H-naltrindole (delta) binding in BE(2)-C membranes. The selectivity of the antibody was further demonstrated by its blockade of the inhibition of cAMP accumulation in BE(2)-C cells by the kappa3 agonist NalBzoH but not the mu agonist morphine. Monoclonal antibody 8D8 (mAb8D8) also recognizes kappa3 receptors from mouse, rat, and calf brain. Administered intracerebroventricularly, mAb8D8 blocked kappa3 but not morphine (mu) analgesia in vivo. On Western blots, mAb8D8 recognized a protein with a molecular mass of approximately 70 kilodaltons in BE(2)-C. These studies demonstrate the selectivity of mAb8D8 for kappa3 receptors and provide additional support for the existence of this unique opioid receptor subtype.Synapse 03/1996; 22(3):247-52.

Article: Cloning and functional characterization through antisense mapping of a k3-related opioid receptor. Mol Pharmacol 47: 1180-1188[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We have identified a putative opioid receptor from mouse brain (KOR-3), belonging to the G protein-coupled receptor family, that is distinct from the previously cloned mu, delta, and kappa 1 receptors. Assignment of the clone to the opioid receptor family derives from both structural and functional studies. Its predicted amino acid sequence is highly homologous to that of the other opioid receptors, particularly in many of the transmembrane regions, where long stretches are identical to mu, delta, and kappa 1 receptors. Both cyclazocine and nalorphine inhibit cAMP accumulation in COS-7 cells stably expressing the clone. Northern analysis shows that the mRNA is present in brain but not in a number of other organs. Southern analysis suggests a single gene encoding the receptor. A highly selective monoclonal antibody directed against the native kappa 3 receptor recognizes, in Western analysis, the clone expressed in COS-7 cells. The in vitro translation product is also labeled by the antibody. Additional clones reveal the presence of several introns, including one in the second extracellular loop and another in the first transmembrane region. Antisense studies with an oligodeoxynucleotide directed against a region of the second extracellular loop reveal a selective blockade of kappa 3 analgesia in vivo that is not observed with a mismatch oligodeoxynucleotide based upon the antisense sequence. The mu, delta, and kappa 1 analgesia is unaffected by this antisense treatment. Antisense mapping of the clone downstream from the splice site in the first transmembrane region reveals that six different antisense oligodeoxynucleotides all block kappa 3 analgesia. In contrast, only one of an additional six different antisense oligodeoxynucleotides directed at regions upstream from this splice site is effective. This strong demarcation between the two regions raises the possibility of splice variants of the receptor. An additional clone reveals an insert in the 3' untranslated region. In conclusion, the antibody and antisense studies strongly associate KOR-3 with the kappa 3-opioid receptor, although it is not clear whether it is the kappa 3 receptor itself or a splice variant.Molecular Pharmacology 07/1995; 47(6):1180-8. · 4.13 Impact Factor
Article: Biochemical and pharmacological characterization of Mu, Delta and Kappa3 opioid receptors expressed in BE(2)-C neuroblastoma cells[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Total opioid binding in the human neuroblastoma cell line BE(2)-C has a density similar to that found in brain, with a Bmax value of 383 +/- 60 fmol/mg protein and a KD of 0.4 +/- 0.07 nM for the nonselective opioid antagonist 3H-diprenorphine. Selective assays reveal a binding distribution of mu (38%), delta (16%) and kappa 3 (43%) opioid receptors. There is no observable kappa 1 or kappa 2 binding. The sum of the Bmax values in the selective binding assays (370 +/- 39 fmol/mg protein) approximates closely that observed with 3H-diprenorphine, suggesting that mu, delta and kappa 3 sites account for most of the binding. The binding selectivities of various opiates and opioid peptides in the BE(2)-C cells are similar to those in rat brain. Delta and mu binding are defined easily by traditional selective ligands. The binding profiles also distinguish clearly mu from kappa 3 binding. The selective mu ligand DAMGO competes with mu binding over 35-fold more potently than kappa 3 binding, whereas morphine shows a 10-fold selectivity. Functionally, selective mu, delta and kappa 3 agonists inhibit forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation through distinct receptor mechanisms that are pertussis toxin-sensitive. In addition to demonstrating that BE(2)-C cells provide a useful model system for studying mu, kappa 3 and delta receptors, these studies confirm that kappa 3 receptors represent a pharmacologically distinct receptor class in this cell line.Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics 10/1994; 270(3):1246-55. · 3.97 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: Opiate receptor expression in phylogenetically different species has played an important role in the study of opioid receptor pharmacology. Total opioid binding measured with the nonselective ligand 3H-diprenorphine reveals a Bmax of 21.7 +/- 1.37 fmol/mg tissue wet wt and a KD of 0.17 +/- 0.03 nM in Bufo marinus (giant toad), as well as a Bmax of 18.17 + 0.41 fmol/mg tissue wet wt and a KD of 0.47 +/- 0.18 nM in Carassius auratus (goldfish). Despite the similar levels of 3H-diprenorphine binding, the composition of binding subtypes in the two species differs. Approximately 30% of total binding corresponds to mu receptors in both species, whereas neither kappa 1 nor delta binding can be detected. However, the remaining 70% of binding differs between the toad and goldfish. In the toad, the non-mu binding corresponds to kappa 2 sites, whereas in the goldfish, the non-mu binding corresponds to kappa 3 sites. The sites can be distinguished biochemically, as well as pharmacologically. After affinity labeling the sites with 3H-NalBzoH, the retention times on an ion-exchange column differ for the peaks of kappa binding in the two species. Although Bufo marinus (giant toad) and Carassius auratus (goldfish) brains express kappa and mu opioid binding, the kappa subtypes in these two species differ.Receptor 02/1994; 4(1):55-62.

hella weak stuff
This beat goes tho.
jesus christ, lil' wayne is the most awful thing my ears have ever listened to. God, he's drunk with power.
don't worry guys wayne will never dissapoint on putting out worse music. He progresses well at sucking more. You think this song is horrible wait till his next track then his album all consistent garbage.
they wasted a good beat, get some better artists and it would actually be a nice mix
This is pretty good and I thought I'd never say this but Waka is improving. Hit-Boy is about to take over though. His production is dope and he's rapping now so I'm excited to see what happens next.
man this is sick, 5 stars fo sho yall wack
What a waste of a good beat smh...
No Surprise on a song llike this Wayne still the hottest. 3 tho wtf is this.
wayne killed it! i hated the original, but this remix is where its at!
Great song, all the hit artists together always do it big!!
nothing special, but 5 stars for BRITNEY
5stars for Britney
here you have some of the wackest artist in hiphopever: will im, diddy, wayne,waka flocka
what kind of trap music are you talking about, cause where I'm from trap music was ushered in by niggas like T.I. and Young Jeezy. Waka's version of "trap", whatever you call it is just him shouting like a dumb nigger through his bangers. they're still catchy bangers I'll give him that, but he ain't nothin special and all that'll do is usher in more dumb niggas doing some shit off the dome like he doin
Seriously. What a waste for this beat.
Waka Flocka is not wack man. Diddy, Will.i.am and Wayne all suck (but Diddy is a legend from his Biggie-era) and can't rap, but Waka Flocka practically invented trap music. I used to hate Waka too, but just think about it this way: it's a subgenre of Hip-Hop, he's not trying to be a lyricist. If you think about it from that perspective, Waka's fucking ill.
couldn't have said it better
will.i.am sounds like Kanye
Kanye and William need to form a group called Metro.
Man.... This shit is TrashhhhhhhhhhhhH! Next
yawn... the more dollars Will.i.am chases, he becomes just as 'plastic' as Diddy and Wayne: subpar. At least Hit Boy will get visibility from this, as he has no need to prove he can make bangers. Real shit, these dudes should stick to what they do best... Will.i.am to production (not pop), Diddy to raping artists and ideas, Wayne to drugs, Brit to showing women of all ages to be an adored puppet / failure, and Hit Boy as hit boy. You're welcome.
I get the feeling your life must be hell and packed with jealousy and hate ..its obvious that's why you hating
This is a pretty nice remix. More hiphop then club, but it can work.
It's really bad when Lil Wayne has the best verse. (Even that was pretty terrible)
fuck u uza wayne hater
It's a club song. They don't play "real hip hop" tracks in clubs, remember?
Weezy kills easily
worst remix ever...
its koo
Worst commercial single from major artists that I've heard in years. Just bad. My life is more sad and less fulfilled for having heard this song. I didn't think it was possible to lose more respect for Will I Am, but I just did. When people look up the word horrible in the dictionary, they'll see a definition that says "not as bad as this song" If Hitler were alive, he would play this song on endless loop for the Jews. I wish I could rate this 0. ... It's really bad.
Couldn't agree with this more. If stalin were alive, he'd play this in the gulags. If the civil rights era and eugene bull connor were alive, he'd grab a boombox during a protest and... oh shit, wrong site...
Weezy murked it..
wayne actually dominates this song
what the hell is this shit?
Decent remix! 3/5

2015 AEC Goals
Goal #1
Facilitate open communication between the AEC and other NAR committees whose goals and activities may impact REALTOR® association policies, procedures, and management operations.
Expected Outcome
AEC liaisons to NAR committees serve as the communication link between the AEC and other NAR committees. Liaisons ensure that issues discussed in the respective committees have the benefit of the AE perspective and that the AEC is apprised of issues being considered during and between NAR meetings, including issues that surface through on-line discussions and at local, state, and regional meetings. AEC leadership engages in communication with NAR officers to ensure that all levels of the organization coordinate efforts to best serve the members.
Goal #2
To create a resource with guidelines, models, and best practices to assist associations that are interested in incorporating chapters or councils into their governance structure.
Expected Outcome
A centralized resource that local associations can consult if they are considering formation of a chapter or council.
Goal #3
Develop best practices to assist local associations in meeting the Advocacy and Consumer Outreach Core Standards, and to assist state associations as they provide support to their local associations in meeting the Core Standards.
Expected Outcome
Local associations will have access to information about the advocacy, consumer and community outreach programs that have been successful for other associations, and state associations will have some guidance as they support the locals in their state that are working toward Core Standards compliance in Advocacy and Consumer Outreach.
Goal #4
To review and update NAR's association management resources to ensure that all Core Standards initiatives are incorporated.
Expected Outcome
The following association management resources will be reviewed and revised to ensure that they appropriately reference the Core Standards: REALTOR® Association Management Models Planning Tool, Chief Staff Evaluation Resources, Succession Planning Resources, Organization Assessment Checklist, Strategic Planning Resources Toolkit, Value Positioning Toolkit, President/Chief Staff Executive Task List, Shared Services Toolkit, RARE Resource Exchange.
Goal #5
To encourage and promote involvement, volunteer leadership opportunities, and career development among young association staff professionals at all levels of the REALTOR® association; to encourage young association staff professionals to pursue an active role in advocacy; and to encourage networking and peer mentoring with other AE YPNers.
Expected Outcome
Younger generation AEs are connected and engaged in the REALTOR® association through opportunities at NAR meetings to network, discuss best practices and initiatives, and support their professional development and career growth opportunities; young AE professionals recognize the importance of campaign fundraising and its impact on the political process and NAR's advocacy initiatives.
