Contributions of semantic and facial information to perception of nonsibilant fricatives.

Most studies have been unable to identify reliable acoustic cues for the recognition of the English nonsibilant fricatives [see text]. The present study was designed to test the extent to which the perception of these fricatives by normal-hearing adults is based on other sources of information, namely, linguistic context and visual information. In Experiment 1, target words beginning with /f/, /theta/, /s/, or [see text] were preceded by either a semantically congruous or incongruous precursor sentence. Results showed an effect of linguistic context on the perception of the distinction between /f/ and /theta/ and on the acoustically more robust distinction between /s/ and [see text]. In Experiment 2, participants identified syllables consisting of the fricatives [see text] paired with the vowels /i, a, u/. Three conditions were contrasted: Stimuli were presented with (a) both auditory and visual information, (b) auditory information alone, or (c) visual information alone. When errors in terms of voicing were ignored in all 3 conditions, results indicated that perception of these fricatives is as good with visual information alone as with both auditory and visual information combined, and better than for auditory information alone. These findings suggest that accurate perception of nonsibilant fricatives derives from a combination of acoustic, linguistic, and visual information.     

Expression of receptors for plasminogen activators on endothelial cell surface depends on their origin

Summary.  Receptors for plasminogen activators present on endothelial cell (EC) surface regulate local plasmin activity. Plasmin generation by human ECs, derived from cerebral cortex, skin and lung, iliac artery, iliac vein, aorta and coronary artery, was studied. The respective ECs were treated with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) or with recombinant urokinase-type plasminogen activator (ru-PA), washed, plasminogen added and the plasmin generated then assayed. The largest amounts of plasmin were generated by cerebral ECs, under baseline conditions or after exposure to rt-PA or ru-PA ( P  < 0.0001). Exposure to rt-PA also resulted in more plasmin generation than ru-PA in the cerebral ECs ( P  < 0.0001) but not in the other ECs. Heparin enhanced plasmin generation by both rt-PA and ru-PA. Specific antibody against annexin II, a t-PA receptor, blocked plasmin generation by rt-PA. Western blotting showed higher amounts of annexin II on the cell membrane in cerebral ECs. This suggests that expression of annexin II in ECs depends on their location, being greatest in cerebral ECs. In contrast, expression of u-PA receptor was the same for all ECs. This has implications for higher risk of intracranial bleeding during thrombolytic therapy, and for a role of t-PA in neurological development and function.

Exogenous advanced glycosylation end products induce diabetes-like vascular dysfunction in normal rats: a factor in diabetic retinopathy

BACKGROUND. Diabetic retinopathy has been shown to be directly associated with the degree and duration of hyperglycemia, and advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs) have been implicated in this pathological process. The purpose of the experiments reported here was to study the effect of AGE deposition on retinal vascular damage which leads to diabetic retinopathy. METHODS. Intravenous injection of exogenous AGEs was used to treat wild-type non-diabetic Sprague-Dawley rats. One of the two retinal slides from each animal was treated using immunohistochemical staining to label retinal vascular AGE deposition, the other H&E staining for counting of capillary pericytes. The results were compared with the findings in untreated wild-type and diabetic controls and in rats treated with unmodified rat serum albumin (RSA). RESULTS. After 2 weeks of continuous treatment, AGEs were identified in the retinal vascular tissue of the AGE-RSA-injected group. The average number of retinal capillary pericytes per 10x100 microscope power field was 4.313+/-0.34 (mean +/- SD) in the AGE-RSA-injected group, compared with 5.798+/-0.481 in the control group ( P<0.01). CONCLUSION. These experiments demonstrate that AGEs, independent of other metabolic factors, can induce vascular change resembling that of diabetic retinopathy.
