To address this issue, we sequenced the OR repertoire in 332 individuals and examined the relationship between genetic variation and 276 olfactory phenotypes, including the perceived intensity and pleasantness of 68 odorants at two concentrations, detection thresholds of three odorants, and general olfactory acuity. -

Loss of 18Q22.3 Involving the Carboxypeptidase of Glutamate-Like Gene Is Associated with Poor Prognosis in Resected Pancreatic Cancer
Published OnlineFirst November 29, 2011; DOI: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-11-1903 Clinical Cancer Imaging, Diagnosis, Prognosis Research Loss of 18q22.3 Involving the Carboxypeptidase of Glutamate-like Gene Is Associated with Poor Prognosis in Resected Pancreatic Cancer Jih-Hsiang Lee1, Elisa Giovannetti4, Jin-Hyeok Hwang1,5, Iacopo Petrini1, Qiuyan Wang1, Johannes Voortman1,4, Yonghong Wang2, Seth M. Steinberg3, Niccola Funel6, Paul S. Meltzer2, Yisong Wang1, and Giuseppe Giaccone1 Abstract Purposes: Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death, and studies on the clinical relevance of its genomic imbalances are warranted. Experimental Design: Recurrent copy number alterations of cytobands and genes were analyzed by array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) in 44 resected pancreatic cancer specimens. Prognostic markers identified by aCGH were validated by PCR gene copy number assay in an independent validation cohort of 61 resected pancreatic cancers. The functions of gene identified were evaluated by proliferation, cell cycle, and migration assays in pancreatic cancer cells. Results: We showed recurrent copy number gains and losses in the first cohort. Loss of 18q22.3 was significantly associated with short-term overall survival in the first cohort (P ¼ 0.019). This cytoband includes the carboxypeptidase of glutamate-like (CPGL) gene. CPGL gene deletion was associated with shorter overall survival in the validation cohort (P ¼ 0.003). CPGL deletion and mutations of TP53 or Kras seem to be independent events. A Cox model analysis of the two cohorts combined showed that loss of 18q22.3/deletion of the CPGL gene was an independent poor prognostic factor for overall survival (HR ¼ 2.72, P ¼ 0.0007). -
Supplementary Methods
Heterogeneous Contribution of Microdeletions in the Development of Common Generalized and Focal epilepsies. SUPPLEMENTARY METHODS Epilepsy subtype extended description. Genetic Gereralized Epilepsy (GGE): Features unprovoked tonic and/or clonic seizures, originated inconsistently at some focal point within the brain that rapidly generalizes engaging bilateral distributed spikes and waves discharges on the electroencephalogram. This generalization can include cortical and sub cortical structures but not necessarily the entire cortex[1]. GGE is the most common group of epilepsies accounting for 20% of all cases[2]. It is characterized by an age-related onset and a strong familial aggregation and heritability which allows the assumption of a genetic cause. Although genetic associations have been identified, a broad spectrum of causes is acknowledged and remains largely unsolved [3]. Rolandic Epilepsy (RE): Commonly known also as Benign Epilepsy with Centrotemporal Spikes (BECTS), hallmarks early onset diagnosis (mean onset = 7 years old) with brief, focal hemifacial or oropharyngeal sensorimotor seizures alongside speech arrest and secondarily generalized tonic– clonic seizures, which mainly occur during sleep[4]. Rolandic epilepsy features a broad spectrum of less benign related syndromes called atypical Rolandic epilepsy (ARE), including benign partial epilepsy (ABPE), Landau–Kleffner syndrome(LKS) and epileptic encephalopathy with continuous spike-and-waves during sleep (CSWSS)[5]. Together they are the most common childhood epilepsy with a prevalence of 0.2–0.73/1000 (i.e. _1/2500)[6]. Adult Focal Epilepsy (AFE). Focal epilepsy is characterized by sporadic events of seizures originated within a specific brain region and restricted to one hemisphere. Although they can exhibit more than one network of wave discharges on the electroencephalogram, and different degrees of spreading, they feature a consistent site of origin. -
A Rose Extract Protects the Skin Against Stress Mediators: a Potential Role of Olfactory Receptors

For this study, skin samples were derived from abdominal or breast tissues of healthy women (30-40 years old). Samples were received 1 day post-surgery and used directly for microdissection or cell extraction. Microdissected human skin was cultured at 37°C under 5% CO2, in DMEM (Dutscher, #L0060-500) plus 10% FBS (Sigma Aldrich, #F7524), 1% Penicillin/Streptomycin (Sigma Aldrich, #P0781-100), and 1% of minimum medium non-essential amino acids 10X (Gibco, #11140-035). For keratinocyte culture, cells were isolated from human skin epidermis. Briefly, skin samples were cut into small pieces and immersed in Thermolysin (Sigma Aldrich, #T7902-100mg) at 4°C overnight. Epidermis was then carefully detached from dermis before being incubated with Trypsin-EDTA for 15 minutes at 37°C. Trypsin inhibitor was next added, the mixture centrifuged and the supernatant discarded before adding KGM2 Medium (Promocell, #C- 20011) with 1% Penicillin/Streptomycin (Sigma Aldrich, #P0781-100). NHEK were then maintained in culture at 37 °C under 5 % CO2 and 95 % relative humidity. -
