  abstract  = {In the present work, the objective has been to analyse the compatibility of plant and human transcriptional machinery. The experiments revealed that nuclear import and export are conserved among plants and mammals. Further it has been shown that transactivation of a human promoter occurs by human transcription factor NF-\(\kappa\) B in plant cells, demonstrating that the transcriptional machinery is highly conserved in both kingdoms. Functionality was also seen for regulatory elements of NF-\(\kappa\) B such as its inhibitor I\(\kappa\)B isoform \(\alpha\) that negatively regulated the transactivation activity of the p50/RelA heterodimer by interaction with NF-\(\kappa\)B in plant cells. Nuclear export of RelA could be demonstrated by FRAP-measurements so that RelA shows nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling as reported for RelA in mammalian cells. The data reveals the high level of compatibility of human transcriptional elements with the plant transcriptional machinery. Thus, Arabidopsis thaliana mesophyll protoplasts might provide a new heterologous expression system for the investigation of the human NF-\(\kappa\)B signaling pathways. The system successfully enabled the controlled manipulation of NF-\(\kappa\)B activity. We suggest the plant protoplast system as a tool for reconstitution and analyses of mammalian pathways and for direct observation of responses to e. g. pharmaceuticals. The major advantage of the system is the absence of interference with endogenous factors that affect and crosstalk with the pathway.},

  abstract  = {Der in j{\"u}ngster Zeit beobachtete kontinuierliche Verlust der β-Diversit{\"a}t in {\"O}kosystemen deutet auf homogene Gemeinschaften auf Landschaftsebene hin, was haupts{\"a}chlich auf die steigende Landnutzungsintensit{\"a}t zur{\"u}ckgef{\"u}hrt wird. Biologische Vielfalt ist mit zahlreichen Funktionen und der Stabilit{\"a}t von {\"O}kosystemen verkn{\"u}pft. Es ist daher zu erwarten, dass eine abnehmende β-Diversit{\"a}t auch die Multifunktionalit{\"a}t verringert. Wir kombinieren hier Fachwissen aus der Forstwissenschaft, der {\"O}kologie, der Fernerkundung, der chemischen {\"O}kologie und der Statistik in einem gemeinschaftlichen und experimentellen β-Diversit{\"a}tsdesign, um einerseits die Auswirkungen der Homogenisierung zu bewerten und andererseits Konzepte zu entwickeln, um negative Auswirkungen durch Homogenisierung in W{\"a}ldern r{\"u}ckg{\"a}ngig zu machen. Konkret werden wir uns mit der Frage besch{\"a}ftigen, ob die Verbesserung der strukturellen β-Komplexit{\"a}t (ESBC) in W{\"a}ldern durch Waldbau oder nat{\"u}rliche St{\"o}rungen die Biodiversit{\"a}t und Multifunktionalit{\"a}t in ehemals homogenen Produktionsw{\"a}ldern erh{\"o}hen kann. Unser Ansatz wird m{\"o}gliche Mechanismen hinter den beobachteten Homogenisierungs-Diversit{\"a}ts-Beziehungen identifizieren und zeigen, wie sich diese auf die Multifunktionalit{\"a}t auswirken. An elf Standorten in ganz Deutschland haben wir dazu zwei Waldbest{\"a}nde als zwei kleine "Waldlandschaften" ausgew{\"a}hlt. In einem dieser beiden Best{\"a}nde haben wir ESBC (Enhancement of Structural Beta Complexity)-Behandlungen durchgef{\"u}hrt. Im zweiten, dem Kontrollbestand, werden wir die gleich Anzahl 50x50m Parzellen ohne ESBC einrichten. Auf allen Parzellen werden wir 18 taxonomische Artengruppen aller trophischer Ebenen und 21 {\"O}kosystemfunktionen, einschließlich der wichtigsten Funktionen in W{\"a}ldern der gem{\"a}ßigten Zonen, messen. Der statistische Rahmen wird eine umfassende Analyse der Biodiversit{\"a}t erm{\"o}glichen, indem verschiedenen Aspekte (taxonomische, funktionelle und phylogenetische Vielfalt) auf verschiedenen Skalenebenen (α-, β-, γ-Diversit{\"a}t) quantifiziert werden. Um die Gesamtdiversit{\"a}t zu kombinieren, werden wir das Konzept der Multidiversit{\"a}t auf die 18 Taxa anwenden. Wir werden neue Ans{\"a}tze zur Quantifizierung und Aufteilung der Multifunktionalit{\"a}t auf α- und β-Skalen verwenden und entwickeln. Durch die experimentelle Beschreibung des Zusammenhangs zwischen β-Diversit{\"a}t und Multifunktionalit{\"a}t in einer Reallandschaft wird unsere Forschung einen neuen Weg einschlagen. Dar{\"u}ber hinaus werden wir dazu beitragen, verbesserte Leitlinien f{\"u}r waldbauliche Konzepte und f{\"u}r das Management nat{\"u}rlicher St{\"o}rungen zu entwickeln, um Homogenisierungseffekte der Vergangenheit umzukehren.},

  abstract  = {Thrombocytopenia and pancytopenia, occurring in patients with Fanconi anemia (FA), are interpreted either as progression to bone marrow failure or as developing myelodysplasia. On the other hand, immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) represents an acquired and often self-limiting benign hematologic disorder, associated with peripheral, immune-mediated, platelet destruction requiring different management modalities than those used in congenital bone marrow failure syndromes, including FA. Here, we describe the clinical course of two independent FA patients with atypical - namely immune - thrombocytopenia. While in one patient belonging to complementation group FA-A, the ITP started at 17 months of age and showed a chronically persisting course with severe purpura, responding well to intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) and later also danazol, a synthetic androgen, the other patient (of complementation group FA-D2) had a self-limiting course that resolved after one administration of IVIG. No cytogenetic aberrations or bone marrow abnormalities other than FA-typical mild dysplasia were detected. Our data show that acute and chronic ITP may occur in FA patients and impose individual diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in this rare congenital bone marrow failure/tumor predisposition syndrome. The management and a potential context of immune pathogenesis with the underlying marrow disorder are discussed.},

  abstract  = {Background: Factors influencing access to stroke unit (SU) care and data on quality of SU care in Germany are scarce. We investigated characteristics of patients directly admitted to a SU as well as patient-related and structural factors influencing adherence to predefined indicators of quality of acute stroke care across hospitals providing SU care. Methods: Data were derived from the German Stroke Registers Study Group (ADSR), a voluntary network of 9 regional registers for monitoring quality of acute stroke care in Germany. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to investigate characteristics influencing direct admission to SU. Generalized Linear Mixed Models (GLMM) were used to estimate the influence of structural hospital characteristics (percentage of patients admitted to SU, year of SU-certification, and number of stroke and TIA patients treated per year) on adherence to predefined quality indicators. Results: In 2012 180,887 patients were treated in 255 hospitals providing certified SU care participating within the ADSR were included in the analysis; of those 82.4\% were directly admitted to a SU. Ischemic stroke patients without disturbances of consciousness (p < .0001), an interval onset to admission time ≤3 h (p < .0001), and weekend admission (p < .0001) were more likely to be directly admitted to a SU. A higher proportion of quality indicators within predefined target ranges were achieved in hospitals with a higher proportion of SU admission (p = 0.0002). Quality of stroke care could be maintained even if certification was several years ago. Conclusions: Differences in demographical and clinical characteristics regarding the probability of SU admission were observed. The influence of structural characteristics on adherence to evidence-based quality indicators was low.},

  abstract  = {Key message Mobile laser scanning and geometrical analysis revealed relationships between tree geometry and seed dispersal mechanism, latitude of origin, as well as growth. Abstract The structure and dynamics of a forest are defined by the architecture and growth patterns of its individual trees. In turn, tree architecture and growth result from the interplay between the genetic building plans and environmental factors. We set out to investigate whether (1) latitudinal adaptations of the crown shape occur due to characteristic solar elevation angles at a species' origin, (2) architectural differences in trees are related to seed dispersal strategies, and (3) tree architecture relates to tree growth performance. We used mobile laser scanning (MLS) to scan 473 trees and generated three-dimensional data of each tree. Tree architectural complexity was then characterized by fractal analysis using the box-dimension approach along with a topological measure of the top heaviness of a tree. The tree species studied originated from various latitudinal ranges, but were grown in the same environmental settings in the arboretum. We found that trees originating from higher latitudes had significantly less top-heavy geometries than those from lower latitudes. Therefore, to a certain degree, the crown shape of tree species seems to be determined by their original habitat. We also found that tree species with wind-dispersed seeds had a higher structural complexity than those with animal-dispersed seeds (p < 0.001). Furthermore, tree architectural complexity was positively related to the growth performance of the trees (p < 0.001). We conclude that the use of 3D data from MLS in combination with geometrical analysis, including fractal analysis, is a promising tool to investigate tree architecture.},
