Our previous study of a Chinese family with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) suggested that A1180V of the cardiac sodium channel gene (SCN5A) was associated with the disease within this family. According to data deposited in dbSNP, however, A1180V has been found in some small samples of the Asian population. In this study, we followed up the affected pedigree and expanded the investigation of the p...

The absorption spectra of Tl2+ in KCl crystals have been measured from 77 to 300 K. Tl2+ gives rise to five absorption bands peaking a t 1760, 860, 680, 460 and 233 nm. These oscillator strengths have been calculated. Optical excitation in the 460 nm band destroys the Tl2+ and Tl++ bands and produces the Tl° bands. Thermal excitation of a crystal containing only Tl2+ and T1++ results in the sim...

BALB/c mice immunized with myeloma proteins 315 or 460 made antibodies to the individually specific ("idiotypic") determinants of these proteins and suppressed growth of the corresponding transplanted tumor cells (MOPC-315 or MOPC-460). Stable, variant MOPC-315 tumors that produce only the light chain of protein 315 grew in several of the mice immunized with this protein, probably because the a...
