Extractions: Identification and characterization of novel inherited forms of neurodegenerative diseases. Such diseases may serve as keys in identifying the crucial molecules and metabolic pathways of interest in the pathogenesis of more common acquired neurodegenerative diseases, such as late-onset Alzheimer's disease. FIGURE LEGEND Inherited neurodegerative disorders are unique experiments of nature. Their analysis may not only provide clues for prevention and possible treatment, but may also give valuable insights into the normal structure and function of the human nervous system. They may also serve as models for elucidation of more common, acquired neurodegenerative conditions, such as late-onset Alzheimer's disease, and brain aging.

Extractions: The neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinoses is a group of diseases characterized by a widespread accumulation in the body of pigments believed to be end-products of lipid-peroxidation damaged organelles. It was recently shown that cerebrospinal fluid from patients with infantile and juvenile neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinosis were less protective against superoxide radical-induced hydroxyl radical formation compared with controls. The content of superoxide dismutase isoenzymes in cerebrospinal fluid and in plasma from patients with different forms of neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinosis was analysed. No significant difference from controls could be demonstrated in samples from patients with juvenile neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinosis. The few samples from patients with infantile and late infantile neuronal ceroid-lipofuscinosis analysed all fell within the range defined by the controls.

Research Infantile Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (INCL) At this time, there is no effective treatment available for this genetic disease, which is the infantile form of a group of progressive, neurometabolic diseases. Doctors at the NIH currently are enrolling children between six months and two years of age for participation in a clinical study of the drug Cystagon for INCL. The study takes place at the NIH in Bethesda, Md. All study-related tests and medicines are provided free of charge. For more information about this National Institutes of Health (NIH) study, go to

Extractions: Protocol Number: 01-CH-0086 Pilot Study of Cystagon as a Potential Therapy for Infantile Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis 01-CH-0086 This study will examine the effectiveness of a drug called Cystagon in treating infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (INCL), a progressive neurological disease affecting children. At around 11 to 13 months of age, patients develop slowed head growth, mild brain atrophy (wasting), electroencephalographic (EEG) changes and retinal deterioration, with symptoms worsening over time. The disease results from an enzyme deficiency that causes fatty compounds called ceroid to accumulate in cells. In laboratory experiments, Cystagon has helped remove ceroid from cells of patients with INCL. Children with INCL between 6 months and 3 years of age may be eligible for this study. Participants take Cystagon daily by mouth every 6 hours. They are admitted to the NIH Clinical Center for a 4- to 5-day period every 6 months for the following tests and evaluations: -Review of medical history, including a detailed record of seizures, physical examination, blood tests and clinical photographs. For the initial baseline studies, examinations may also be scheduled with pediatric neurology, ophthalmology and anesthesia services.

Extractions: We developed a semi-automatic genotyping facility for genome analyses in livestock utilising a dual LI-COR IR2 DNA sequencer and Biomek 2000 workstation with integrated MJ Research DNA Engine PCR cycler. The primary requirements for the facility were: genotype processing and analysis capacity of at least 150,000 genotypes per year; flexibility to process gel scans for several projects at once; high level of automation; ready access for data analysis and storage; low cost-base for routine genotyping; flexibility to utilise "unlabeled" primers for routine screening; ease of use; and low cost expansion capability. We can currently generate 800 genotypes a day with a single IR2 system (in excess of 175,000 genotypes per year, expandable to 700,000 genotypes per year on a 384-well format). Integration of a UNIX server and a large genome information system (Australian National Genomic Information Service, ANGIS) allows for flexible and high capacity data processing.
