TL;DR: The mushroom Coprinopsis cinerea is a classic experimental model for multicellular development in fungi because it grows on defined media, completes its life cycle in 2 weeks, produces some 108 synchronized meiocytes, and can be manipulated at all stages in development by mutation and transformation.
Abstract: The mushroom Coprinopsis cinerea is a classic experimental model for multicellular development in fungi because it grows on defined media, completes its life cycle in 2 weeks, produces some 10(8) synchronized meiocytes, and can be manipulated at all stages in development by mutation and transformation. The 37-megabase genome of C. cinerea was sequenced and assembled into 13 chromosomes. Meiotic recombination rates vary greatly along the chromosomes, and retrotransposons are absent in large regions of the genome with low levels of meiotic recombination. Single-copy genes with identifiable orthologs in other basidiomycetes are predominant in low-recombination regions of the chromosome. In contrast, paralogous multicopy genes are found in the highly recombining regions, including a large family of protein kinases (FunK1) unique to multicellular fungi. Analyses of P450 and hydrophobin gene families confirmed that local gene duplications drive the expansions of paralogous copies and the expansions occur in independent lineages of Agaricomycotina fungi. Gene-expression patterns from microarrays were used to dissect the transcriptional program of dikaryon formation (mating). Several members of the FunK1 kinase family are differentially regulated during sexual morphogenesis, and coordinate regulation of adjacent duplications is rare. The genomes of C. cinerea and Laccaria bicolor, a symbiotic basidiomycete, share extensive regions of synteny. The largest syntenic blocks occur in regions with low meiotic recombination rates, no transposable elements, and tight gene spacing, where orthologous single-copy genes are overrepresented. The chromosome assembly of C. cinerea is an essential resource in understanding the evolution of multicellularity in the fungi.

TL;DR: Ten of 11 patients with ovarian cancer receiving cisplatin developed a distal sensory neuropathy, manifested early by decreased vibratory sensibility in toes and depressed ankle jerks and later by uncomfortable paresthesias, which may explain the cisPlatin toxicity of peripheral nerves with relative sparing of the central nervous system.
Abstract: Ten of 11 patients with ovarian cancer receiving cisplatin developed a distal sensory neuropathy, manifested early by decreased vibratory sensibility in toes and depressed ankle jerks and later by uncomfortable paresthesias. Eleven patients receiving cisplatin, 50 mg/m2 monthly (mean tstal, 580 mg/m2) were studied prospectively with monthly neurologic examinations and conduction velocity determinations of median, peroneal, and sural nerves. Early signs were decreased vibratory sensibility in toes (mean dose, 417 f 132 mg/m2 [SD]) and loss of ankle jerks (mean dose, 455 f 86 mg/m2). With continued therapy, four developed paresthesias. Strehgth was Unaffected. Sural nerve responses abruptly disappeared in six patients (mean dose, 383 +- 103 mg/m2). Other conduction velocities remain4 sormal. Electron microscopy of peripheral nerves from four patients showed axonal degeneration and secondary myelin breakdown. Platinum concentrations in three patients were similar in tumor (3.3 fig/&, sural nerves (3.5 fig/g), and spinal ganglia (3.8 pg/g), but lower in brain (0.17 fig/&. This may explain the cisplatin toxicity of peripheral nerves with relative sparing of the central nervous system.

TL;DR: The diameter of the nanotubes can be altered by modifying the structure of one of the porphyrin tectons, and are composed of J-aggregates that exhibit resonance light scattering.
Abstract: Porphyrin nanotubes are made by ionic self-assembly of two oppositely charged synthetic porphyrin molecules. The diameter of the nanotubes can be altered by modifying the structure of one of the porphyrin tectons. The nanotubes are photocatalytically active, mechanically responsive to light, and are composed of J-aggregates that exhibit resonance light scattering.
