Back Cover TRANSLatiONAL SCIENCE: FROM Basic TO CLINicaL IMMUNOLOGY AND ALLERGY President Dear Colleagues, Gianni Marone It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the 28th Symposium of the Vice President/ Collegium Internationale Allergologicum on Translational Science: From Basic to Past Secretary General Clinical Immunology and Allergy from 25-30 April 2010 in Ischia, Italy. Stephen Galli The purpose of the meeting is to bring translational scientists, clinical immunologists and allergists together to foster interdisciplinary approaches to Secretary General understand and treat immune-based disorders. Stephen Holgate As in previous years, the majority of the scientific program will be given over to Past President free communications that will be presented either as oral abstract presentations Johannes Ring or as poster discussions. The Collegium’s unique organizational structure and membership guidelines ensure that the science presented at the biennial Council Members symposia of the Collegium is not only important, but contains many late-breaking Mübeccel Akdis developments. Bruce Bochner Sven-Erik Dahlén We believe that the venue we have chosen to accommodate scientists and Fatima Ferreira accompanying persons follows the traditions and style that characterize the Jean Marshall meetings of the Collegium. Ischia is a truly inspirational island to visit from a Hirohisa Saito historical perspective as well as in regards to social events. Its rich culture Richard Stevens reflects its exciting past. Known as the “Green Island” for its abundance of woods Ronald van Ree and gardens, it was the first site in Italy to be colonized by the Greeks, “Magna Grecia.” The Greeks were attracted to the island by the many hot springs, whose Symposium Organizers healing properties still attract visitors worldwide. The Archeological Museum and Gianni Marone Excavations of Pithecusae are also just across the road from the venue. Massimo Triggiani On behalf of the Collegium Council Members, thank you for attending the 28th Symposium in Ischia! From the beginning, the Collegium was intended to be an exclusive group of friends pursuing excellence in research in a spirit of open intellectual exchange at meetings held in interesting and stimulating locations. We will again strive to fulfill this vision over the next week in Ischia.

Skirball Chemical Biology and Proteomics Laboratory, The Salk Institute for Biological Studies, 10010 North Torrey Pines Road, La Jolla, CA 92037 Communicated by Anthony R. Cashmore, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA, May 5, 2006 (received for review March 31, 2006) Phenylpropenes such as chavicol, t-anol, eugenol, and isoeugenol are produced by plants as defense compounds against animals and microorganisms and as floral attractants of pollinators. Moreover, humans have used phenylpropenes since antiquity for food pres- ervation and flavoring and as medicinal agents. Previous research suggested that the phenylpropenes are synthesized in plants from substituted phenylpropenols, although the identity of the en- zymes and the nature of the reaction mechanism involved in this transformation have remained obscure. We show here that glan- dular trichomes of sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum), which synthe- size and accumulate phenylpropenes, possess an enzyme that can use coniferyl acetate and NADPH to form eugenol.

Exposure to chemicals is suspected of playing a main role in the development of some adverse health effects in humans. Additionally, European regulatory authorities have recognized the risk associated with combined exposure to multiple chemicals. Testing all possible combinations of the tens of thousands environmental chemicals is impractical. This PhD project was launched to apply existing computational systems biology methods to toxicological research. In this thesis, I present in three projects three different approaches to using com- putational toxicology to aid classical toxicological investigations. In project I, we predicted human health effects of five pesticides using publicly available data. We obtained a grouping of the chemical according to their potential human health ef- fects that were in concordance with their effects in experimental animals.

In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma (ATR) is widely used to treat memory and cognition dysfunction. Tis study aimed to confrm evidence regarding the potential therapeutic efect of ATR on Alzheimer’s disease (AD) using a system network level based in silico approach. Study results showed that the compounds in ATR are highly connected to AD-related signaling pathways, biological processes, and organs. Tese fndings were confrmed by compound-target network, target-organ location network, gene ontology analysis, and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis. Most compounds in ATR have been reported to have antifbrillar amyloid plaques, anti-tau phosphorylation, and anti-infammatory efects. Our results indicated that compounds in ATR interact with multiple targets in a synergetic way.

Ramaswamy2, Malali Gowda2* and Ramanathan Sowdhamini1* Abstract Background: Krishna Tulsi, a member of Lamiaceae family, is a herb well known for its spiritual, religious and medicinal importance in India. The common name of this plant is ‘Tulsi’ (or ‘Tulasi’ or ‘Thulasi’) and is considered sacred by Hindus. We present the draft genome of Ocimum tenuiflurum L (subtype Krishna Tulsi) in this report. The paired-end and mate-pair sequence libraries were generated for the whole genome sequenced with the Illumina Hiseq 1000, resulting in an assembled genome of 374 Mb, with a genome coverage of 61 % (612 Mb estimated genome size). We have also studied transcriptomes (RNA-Seq) of two subtypes of O. tenuiflorum, Krishna and Rama Tulsi and report the relative expression of genes in both the varieties. Results: The pathways leading to the production of medicinally-important specialized metabolites have been studied in detail, in relation to similar pathways in Arabidopsis thaliana and other plants.
