  • Response to Thum Et Al
    Response to Thum et al. David M. Patrick, … , Eva van Rooij, Eric N. Olson J Clin Invest. 2011;121(2):462-463. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI46108. Letter Thum et al. conclude that microRNA-21 (miR-21) is essential for cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis in response to pressure overload (1). They also claim that our failure to observe a blockade to these processes in mice treated with an 8-mer locked nucleic acid–modified oligonucleot​ ide against miR-21 (called Anti-21) (2) is due to the ineffectiveness of such inhibitors. We wish to point out several caveats to their study regarding the role of miR-21 in cardiac hypertrophy and their conclusions regarding the efficacy of the Anti-21 oligonucleotide. First, we find that Anti-21 inhibits miR-21 with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration of 0.9 nM, indicating the efficacy of Anti-21. Second, Thum et al. do not state the method they used to measure miR-21 inhibition, though we assume it to be quantitative PCR (qPCR). In our hands, qPCR alone is unreliable for measuring miRNA inhibition, especially for 8-mer inhibitors, since they may be displaced during qPCR and thereby give an underrepresentation of miRNA inhibition. To demonstrate functional inhibition of a miRNA, it is important to show data from multiple assays, such as small RNA Northern blots, luciferase reporter assays, and target derepression, as shown in our study (2). Such data are lacking in the Thum et al. rebuttal, which makes comparison of the different chemistries impossible. Thum et al. also state that we measured miR-21 inhibition […] Find the latest version: https://jci.me/46108/pdf letters contrast and consistent with the findings Acknowledgments Address correspondence to: Thomas Thum, reported by Patrick et al., application of We kindly acknowledge the support of the Hannover Medical School, Institute for short 8-mer oligonucleotides against miR- Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG Molecular and Translational Therapeutic 21 did not affect pressure overload-induced TH903/10-1), the BMBF (01EO0802 and Strategies, Carl-Neuberg-Str.

  • The Development of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV); a Brief Summary
    The Development of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV); A Brief Summary D. Richard Blidberg, (blidberg@ausi,org) Autonomous Undersea Systems Institute, Lee New Hampshire, USA Introduction The concept of a submersible vehicle is not a new idea. The first American submarine was called “Turtle.” It was built at Saybrook, Connecticut in 1775 by David Bushnell and his brother, Ezra. The Turtle was a little egg-shaped wooden submarine held together by iron straps. Turtle bobbed like a cork in rough surface winds and seas even though she was lead weighted at the bottom. In this hand and foot-operated contraption, one person could descend by operating a valve to admit water into the ballast tank and ascend with the use of pumps to eject the water. Two flap-type air vents at the top opened when the hatch was clear of water and closed when it was as not. The air supply lasted only 30 minutes. The Turtle's first engagement, which took place in New York Harbor in 1776, was also the first naval battle in history involving a submarine. [Pararas] In November of 1879, the Reverend George W. Garrett designed, what was considered by some to be the world's first practical powered submarine, the “Resurgam.” It was built at the Brittannia Engine Works and Foundry of J. B. Cochran in Birkenhead, England and was powered by a Lamm 'fireless' steam engine, and could travel for some ten hours on power stored in an insulated tank. After these historic underwater vehicles, there have been many more submersibles developed and used operationally for a number of different tasks.

SUGGESTED CITATION Nicholl, Caroline G. Community Policing, Community Justice, and Restorative Justice: Exploring the Links for the Delivery of a Balanced Approach to Public Safety. Washington, DC: U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Community Oriented Policing Services, 1999. See companion document: Toolbox For Implementing Restorative Justice and Advancing Community Policing Author’s Note This report is about promoting public safety in a democracy through policing and justice. Within these few words lies a kaleidoscope of thousands of pieces. We all see those pieces dif­ ferently, depending on what we know and what we do not know, what we have experienced and what we have heard second- or third-hand. From my stance, the current pattern seems out of balance. Efforts with community-oriented policing and justice are heartening, but the rich potential for further reform is vulnerable. The vulnerability lies in a confusion about the cen­ tral point of the kaleidoscope.

Vor allem die anfängliche Betreuung bei der Datenaufnahme in Thailand hat mir bei der Erstellung meiner Arbeit sehr geholfen. Auch für die spontane Hilfe von Dr. Anna Fricke, sowie für die Hilfe der Mitarbeiter im Labor des ZMT Bremen möchte ich mich herzlich bedanken. Eine große Hilfe war für mich die Zusammenarbeit mit Hauke Schwieder, Swaantje Bennecke und Kristina Börder bei der Datenaufnahme in Thailand. Durch das freundschaftliche Verhältnis und ihre Hilfsbereitschaft wurde die Arbeit sehr erleichtert, und auch unvorhergesehene Probleme konnten wir gemeinsam bewältigen. Auch durch diese besondere Zusammenarbeit wurde der Aufenthalt für mich zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis, wofür ich mich herzlich bedanken will. Mein besonderer Dank gilt Hauke, der nicht nur in Thailand, sondern auch bei der weiteren Arbeit in Bremen eine große Hilfe war.

In the past, the mine hunting performance was mainly driven by the performance of the mine detector. With this improved detection capability, the mine hunting system performance is now driven by classification.
