Hello,
I am not sure whether you are talking srpski, so i should write in English.
I am writing a book and will say Serbian view of Srebrenica and give your
website a credit as well as this link
http://www.balkanpeace.org/cib/bos/boss/boss03.shtml
For the concisity reasons, could you please specify the sources of
information in this passage, or, if possible, clean it from the link page
because it does not have a named sourse so it could be taken as a matter
of conspiracy?
Thanks in advance. I shall send you a book when it's published (now I am
in phasis of collecting data and writing first drafts).
Best wishes and take care,
Mirjana Mijic
Here is the part I was talking about:
The abandonment of Srebrenica to a relatively small Serb advancing force
caused surprise in the West, especially after the largely Muslim
government army had demonstrated considerable infantry skills in recent
attacks. There were reports that up to 1,500 Serbs were involved in the
assault on Srebrenica, but intelligence sources estimated the main attack
was carried out by a force of about 200, with five tanks. "It was a pretty
low-level operation, but for some reason which we can't understand the BiH
(government) soldiers didn't put up much of a fight," one source said...."
"....However, the advance into the town was seen by intelligence assessors
as an opportunist move. "I don't think the Serbs had predicted the timing
of this operation," one source said. The apparent decision by the Muslims
to abandon the town provided the Serbs with a sudden opportunity to occupy
Srebrenica, bypassing the Dutch on the road a mile south of the town.
The intelligence source said: "The BiH just melted away from Srebrenica
and the senior officers left the night before." The source said the Muslim
defenders were "adequately armed" for street-fighting..."
Me: You are saying in http://www.balkanpeace.org/press/prs16.shtml that:

Her: Pretty large field of interests - great!
I would recommend you to rent a car and to go to North Israel to visit Zfat - the town of cabbalists, then on Golan hights there is "Israeli Stonhenge" - very unusual place, very weird, and rarely visited- http://geoimages.berkeley.edu/wwp604/html/AndyAlpern.html
Then there are great nature reserves as Achsiv and Banias, and if you go to South, visit the caves near the Dead Sea and Jericho site.
There is absolutely nothing to do in Tel-Aviv, so you can base in Haifa for North traveling or in Jerusalem for travelling in Central area (you can also see Herodion if you go with a guide - amazing place - http://www.abu.nb.ca/courses/NTIntro/images/Herodifortress.htm )

11.XII2004. Animal insulin and damned farmaceutical companies. Now, I excuse myself but could you culture S.Cerevisiaen to produce beef insulin for me, and Monotard in pure form like as it is from beef and without pesticides, please?
Read this. In fact, I do suffer from exhaustionm, had a seizure when hyppo and unexplained coma and feel bad and painful with all human and analog insulins I tried. Can you find out how much rapid and slow insulins cost in UK, both in pen, or just as an injection solution to suck in.

23.II2005. why there is not tax on airline fuel? from OUSA env. forum:
AS a veteran of the airline fuel business I have some info here for what it is worth. The reason for the lack of tax on airline fuel is complex in its simplicity. The problem is that airline fuel is consumed while the palne is flying over international airspace (except of course during take off and landing). As such it is being consumed in no one's tax jurisdiction. If you were to tax it who would receive the revenue on say a London New York flight? In the same way that if you buy goods in London as a US tourist, you can claim back the VAT when you leave the country. The same principle applies for airline fuel.
Now one could have an EU tax covering flights within the EU, but this would be a first case of the EU being a direct tax revenue raiser, rather than the individual countries raising taxes and then paying dues to the EU. If I understand correctly the EU has no mandate to raise taxes.
This subject goes on and on so I will quit here, but also bear in mind that some countries would then compete with low taxes to attract airline hubs. Once again an easy solution turns out to be not so easy.

5.III 2005. Bonjour au groupe AT-Transports,
Ci-dessous quelques "exemples venus d'ailleurs" pour diminuer la pollution générée par les transports, glanés lors d'un cours sur les transports pendant ma formation.
Je m'excuse de n'avoir pas le temps de les développer, mais...je cherche un emploi en ce moment (tout en finissant ma formation en "management urbain & de l'environnement") et c'est ma priorité.
Mais peut-être cela peut-il esquisser quelques pistes pour la partie "prospective" de l'exposé ?
A la prochaine séance peut-être, bon courage pour la rédaction.
Emilie ("nouvelle" ou plutôt "revenante" des AT).
Singapour : des efforts considérables pour instaurer un péage urbain
et diminuer la circulation des voitures en ville. Problème : ségrégation par le $.
Allemagne : taxe pour les camions (source : magazine Silence de mars 2005) :
depuis le début de l’année 2005, les poids lourds doivent payer
12,4 centimes d’euro du kilomètre pour emprunter les autoroutes allemandes.
Hambourg : des locations de voiture sur des distances courtes (mode de transport banalisé).
Californie : gestion souple des infrastructures routières (voies à sens unique, certains sens de circulation bloqués…)
Danemark : des strapontins à vélo le long des fenêtres dans les wagons de train
Dublin : les étudiants transportent les citadins dans des pousse-pousses à pédales (sortes de "tuk-tuks") : un job étudiant...qui muscle les mollets. Source : ma soeur, habitante de Dublin.
Suisse : des transports scolaires très organisés (évite les congestions urbaines
causées par les trajets domicile-école en voiture des parents)

Moje pismo drugarici, 12/3/05, delim ga sa vama premda nisam sa istim likom:
Ja sam prvo ovo poslala na forumu, al pomislih mozda je prejako za ljude pa sam izbrisala. U svakom slucaju tebe vec smatram za drugarsku dusu pa evo ti, citaj:
Kad sam ja predlagala mom dijabetologu da idem na pumpu on nije bio za to jer se plasio da nema nikog da me nocu proveri i da mogu da padnem u komu. Ja sam tada zivela sama, pardon, sa mojim pacovima (nemoj se mrstiti oni su divne, inteligentne, socijalne i jako ciste zivotinje). Davala sam sebi 3-4 puta dnevno NPH (ili Insulatard) zajedno sa Novorapidom svaki put kad je potrebno. 3-4 puta dnevno NPH zato sto ja jako brzo absorbiram insulin te traje krace. Cak i lantus meni traje oko 8 sati pa onda preko celog dana moram da dajem male inekcijice kad god je potrebno, pored onih obaveznih pred jelo.
Elem, ja sam tada cesto padala u hipo i dr. se bojao. 3 puta su me moji pacovi probudili iz literalne kome (hvala im zauvek sto su mi spasili zivot) tako sto su me satima lickali i grickali po licu. Ja bih osetila da su na mom licu, pretpostavljam odgurnula bi ih, oni bi se vratili i pretrcavali preko lica i ponovo mi lizali oci i grickali me. To je trajalo vecnost, oni su bili uporni, na kraju sam shvatila da sam u uzasnom manjku ali bih se ponovo kontuzovala, oni bi opet nastavili, pretrcavali, grickali, zuborili u uho (sto inace ne bi radili kad spavam, uglavnom bi se scucurili pored mene i spavali i oni)... To se ponavljalo, ja bih samo shvatila da mi treba secera i onesvestila se, oni bi opet Jovo nanovo. Na kraju sam htela da ustanem i uzmem secer ali sipak! Ne samo ogromna glavobolja i skroz mokra i ja i posteljina nego sam bila paralisana. Vrtela se levo-desno, opet spavala, oni me budili, onda spala sa kreveta. Boze kako je to bilo strasno, puzala sam minutima, noge nisu htele da slusaju, ruke i one nisu imale snage i pravile bi tikove. Ja bih zaspala ali bi oni trcali ispred mene, ja sam tada napokon shvatila da sam u stvarno losem stanju i da mi nece pomoci da spavam na podu da moram da uzmem secer... ali to puzanje, to neslusanje misica, to kucanje srca...
Na kraju sam otvorila kutiju secera u kocki, pojela pola kilograma (literalno) i posle jedno 20minuta pola sata proverila secer 19mg/dl(0,95mmol/l), i to posle secera!!! Nazvala partnera, ali i to je bilo skoro komicno, nisam mogla da potrefim brojeve, ruka nije htela da slusa, nanovo i nanovo dok ga nisam dobila da mu kazem da sam, eto ziva uz pomoc mojih pacovcica. Nisam mogla da govorim, mucala sam (to je bilo skoro sat vremena posle jedenja secera), jos uvek sam bila paralisana, koliko sam se uplasila tada da sam gotova i da se necu izvuci. Ovi su bili pored mene i gotovo groktali (inace su oni jako tihi i nisu oni morski prasici da grokcu), i znala sam da su srecni i da me i dalje podrzavaju ...
E, pa pored tog jednog puta, bila su i druga dva kad sam bila polu svesna i mnogo puta kad bih bila samo u manjku kad bi me probudili...
Zadnji iz te moje pacovske porodice je umro u junu 2004. Ja sam od pocetka februara pocela da zivim sa mojim partnerom i Sanijem, zadnjim pacovom. Morala sam da obecam da ce mi to biti zadnji jer je darlin' imao jaku alergiju i morao je prvi dan kad smo se uselili da dobije steroidnu inekciju, a zatim je svaki dan uzimao antihistaminske tablete. Ali kad god bi poceo da se mazi sa Sanijem jer ga je obozava dobio bi crvene pecate po ruci i oci bi pocele da ga svrbe i poceo bi da smrkce i da ga steze u plucima...
Ja sam kad je Sani umro sacuvala par njegovih dlaka kao i ostalih 6 kojih sam imala da mogu jednog dana, kad pronadjemo lekove za bolesti i imamo mogucnost da neograniceno produzimo zivot da, ako ja budem tada ziva da mogu da ih kloniram i vodim racuna o njima.
Nego da se vratim na tvoje pitanje. Posto sam imala Sanija a i posto je moj covek shvatio da sam ja nemoguca da delimo krevet (ritam se ko konj i kradem jorgan i prevrcem ko na takmicenju, a neki put i mrmljam) ja imam moju sobu gde spavam a on njegovu. E, sad, sta ako opet upadnem u takav manjak, toga se plasim... Mada od kada sam na lantusu mnogo je stabilniji nocu secer pa nisam toliko zabrinuta...
Ako se desi da zatrudnim, verovatno cu staviti pumpu ako je to najbolji nacin kontrole. Verovatno cemo morati da napravimo razmestaj u njegovoj sobi i da kupimo dzinovski krevet takon da ja mogu da se ritam i prevrcem koliko hocu i imam svoje cebe al da je on tu da moze da me cekira, oseti ako sam se preznojila.
Ispricala sam ono o pacovima zato sto sam htela da razbijem nekim ljudima predrasude o tim divnim zivotinjama. Da, od kad sam njih imala sam postala vegetarijanac i nisam za experimentisanje na zivotinjama, oni su nasi prijatelji i pomognu kad imaju mogucnost, zato nisam za njihovu patnju pogotovo kad postoje jeftiniji, brzi i viabliji za ljude metodi koji su eticki u svakom smislu. Mislim nemam ja nista protiv da ljudi koji vec imaju bolesnog ljubimca kazu OK za experimentalni lek da se proba, i to je OK, ne da ih pare da ih drze u kavezu bez da ih pomaze celog zivota i bez da im daju da se istrce po prostoriji i onda, uuuh, verovatno i ne znate sta se sve radi sa tim dragim, inteligentnim bicima...I zbog svog genetskog tipa, i zbog same odvojenosti vrsta (jedna vrsta se ne moze reprodukovati sa drugom), isti lekovi drugacije uticu najednu i drugacije na drugu vrstu...
Samo da dodam, znate li da je Sani voleo da golica svoju tetka Minu i ona bi se smejala visokim skviksima? I naucnici su dokazali da se pacovi smeju, posle sam saznala (za takve vrste naucnih observacija nemam nista protiv). Ja sam i za logo na mom sajtu stavila crtez pacova, mozete videti na mimaradio tacka com.
Od kad sam vegetarijanac holesterol mi je odlican, samo da dodam.
Pozdrav,

Nuclear or Not? An overview by Dave Elliott
With the likely social and economic costs of climate change being taken increasingly seriously, the nuclear lobby is arguing that it has at least part of the answer since, unlike coal or gas fired power plants, nuclear plants do not generate carbon dioxide gas, the main greenhouse gas responsible for climate change.
Nuclear power had fallen from favour due to the high costs, and concerns about plant safety and radioactive waste disposal (1). More recently security issues have come to the fore. However, if we have to phase out our use of fossil fuels to reduce the impact on the climate system, then, say the nuclear proponents, what other energy source is there? The renewable energy lobby argues that it has the answer- there are many new green energy sources which can provide all the energy we need without any emissions, and they are developing rapidly, especially in countries which have decided to back off from nuclear power (2). In addition, we can avoid wasting so much energy- so that it becomes easier to meet our needs from renewables sources.
The debate between these two positions sometimes focuses on the problems each perceives with what the other side are offering, in terms for example of direct costs. The reality seems to be that there is not much in it- nuclear power is currently expensive, but so is wind power, although both could get cheaper (3). There are also technical arguments. Nuclear plants only produce electricity, whereas that’s is only about 30% of what we need; renewables can provide heat and transport fuels, as well as electricity (4). However, the counter argument is that some renewable energy sources are intermittent and are not reliable as electricity sources, and growing biofuels for vehicles would take up a lot of land space (5). Plenty of rooms for debate there.
The comparison gets more favourable to renewables when we look at some of the other major differences between these two types of technology. Nuclear plants need uranium to fuel them and inevitably produce dangerous long-lived wastes, whereas most renewables need no ‘fuel’ and produce no wastes, and so there are no fuel or ‘backend’ costs. Moreover, when nuclear plants come to the end of their working life they must be decommissioned, which is a very expensive process- which generates yet more wastes. Nuclear facilities are also potential terrorist targets, whereas most renewables are unlikely to attract the attention of terrorists (6).
It is not surprising then that most people oppose nuclear power- opinion polls have over the years have typically indicated that 70-80% of those asked were against an expanded nuclear programme, while about the same number were in favour of renewables like wind power- although opposition to wind projects generates a lot of media coverage, it is very much a minority issue (7).
However, things may be changing. The nuclear lobby says that actually, in the UK, opposition to a ‘replacement’ nuclear programme (replacing the UK’s old plants as they are retired), has fallen in recent years, no doubt reflecting growing concerns about climate change (8). The renewables lobby replies, if climate change is so important then that is all the more reason to expand support for renewables, since they are the best bet for a long term sustainable energy future. Going back to nuclear power would simply divert resources from developing renewables. Moreover, why try to solve one environmental problem (climate change) by creating another (radioactive pollution), especially since long term we will have to switch over the renewables, since there are only limited amounts of uranium available in the world? (9)
So the debate goes on. On one side we have renewable protagonists arguing that renewables could supply 50% of total world energy requirements by 2050, compared to the 7% currently supplied by nuclear power. On the other, some nuclear proponents say that new nuclear technologies will be cheaper, cleaner and safer, and that in any case, the costs and risks of climate change outweigh the problems of nuclear power. Some say- why not have both? But we don’t have the resources to do this, and in any case we then risk doing neither well. We really ought to decide which to back. Nuclear power has had the lion’s share of funding for many decades, while renewables have been starved of funding (10). Perhaps it is now time to give renewables a chance to show what they can do? (11)
Notes
(1) No new nuclear plants have been ordered in the USA since the Three Mile Island accident in 1979 and following the Chernobyl accident in 1986, most of the EU decided to phase out nuclear power. Globally over 30 gigawatts of nuclear plant has been closed or retired, although China and India are still expanding their nuclear programmes
(2) Denmark gets over 20% of its annual electricity requirements &om wind turbines. Germany has installed over 16 gigawatts of wind generation capacity. So far there is around 42 gigawatts of wind capacity in use in the world and around 70 GW (thermal) of solar energy conversion capacity.
(3) The 2002 Cabinet Office ‘Energy Review’ estimated that by 2020 on shore wind would the cheapest energy option at 1-5-2.5 pence per kilowatt hour (the current average price is around 3p/kWh), while offshore wind farms might generate power at between 2-3p/kWh. It suggested that new nuclear plants might generate at between 3-5 p/kWh, but the nuclear industry claims that it can get it down to 2.5p/kWh.
(4) Electricity from nuclear plants could be used for electric vehicles and also for producing hydrogen gas to power vehicles, But that is also true of electricity from renewables. In theory, waste heat from nuclear plants could be used in district heating networks, but that would imply that the nuclear plants had to be in or near inner city areas, and so far all the UK’s nuclear plants have been put in remote areas on safety grounds, usually by the coast to get access to cooling water. That actually may prove to be a problem in future, given the risk of sea level rises as a result of climate change. However, locating nuclear plants in-land may also be a problem since water is likely to become an increasingly scarce resource due the climate change. That of course could also effect the viability of biofuel and energy-crop production.
(5) The intermittency of some renewable sources like wind is not a major problem. The existing power system already has to cope with sudden large variations in power supply inputs when conventional power stations unexpectedly go off-line. As long as the total contribution from intermittent sources is less than about 20%, the smaller variations in input from these sources is in effect balanced out by the national grid system. Above a 20% contribution then we may need more backup plants and energy storage systems, but by that time we could be using renewables to generate hydrogen gas, as a new energy medium, and that is storable.
(6) Over the next century the UK will have to deal with 500,000 tonnes of nuclear waste of various types as existing plants are closed and decommissioned. The total nuclear liability has been put at 548billion. BNFL currently spends f.50m pa on security e.g. armed police to protect against terrorists
(7) An opinion Poll for the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds found that only 3% of their sample opposed wind farms. In the 'worst case' poll, in Wales, objectors were14%.
(8) A Mori poll in 2001 found that 19% favoured a replacement programme, while 57% opposed it. By 2004 the figures had changed to 30% for and 34% against.
(9) Reserves depend on the price that is acceptable and the rate of use. In 1990 the UK Atomic Energy Authority said that, using conventional thermal/ burner reactors, ‘ for a nuclear programme that expands continuously to about 50% of [electricity] demand, uranium resources are only adequate for about 45years’. Uranium finds since then may have increased the resource, but a major nuclear programme would lead to lower grade ores being used, which would require more energy for fuel production and lead to more carbon dioxide emissions,
(10) UK Government funding for nuclear research and development ran at around f.200m through most of the 1970’s, whereas spending on RED for renewables only rose gradually to about 10% of that before being cut back under the Thatcher government. Renewables still only get around K20m p.a. for RScD, while nuclear power gets around 560m p.a. (excluding the liabilities). However, a new renewables grant scheme is now offering more to help new projects get going, including grants for offshore wind, wave and tidal current projects.
(11) The government’s 2004 White paper on energy saw renewables and energy efficiency as the main way ahead but said that nuclear power should be kept open as an option for the longer term in case renewables and efficiency did not deliver as hoped. More recently interest has also been shown in undersea carbon sequestration (storage in old oil and gas wells) as a way to allow us to continue to use fossil fuels for a while, without having an impact on the climate.

Please read, indeed I do agree with most of things except for putting the main concepts of Winged Serpent to be Hadit and Horus as hawk headed deity. I would put those main deities to be human-like, or allegoricaly like some other indeed holy concepts, as both serpent and hawk are rodent eaters and they are not able to control such hunger until, one day, we, humans do not teach them otherwise (in beggining giving them veggy food and afterwards bring them to evolve into herbivores).
But most of the other theology concepts are quite good.

How much can photovoltaics really produce in Britain? The DTI have estimated that solar panels installed on buildings have the potential to provide all the electricity that Britain currently uses, however that would mean photovoltaics on most south facing roofs which is unlikely in the near future. However, an ambitious solar roof programme coupled with other renewables such as wind and wave power could play a significant part in the move toward a sustainable future. How environmentally friendly are photovoltaics? The manufacture of photovoltaics involves the use of toxic materials to obtain the necessary standards of purity which are vital to performance. It lies with the manufacturer to ensure that dangerous substances are dealt with and handled correctly. Over its estimate

10.IV2005. (from Vivien, a vegan from OU forum). Does this have any connection with REACH?
At the link below you will find an article subtitled "Human Toxicity Data Is Exactly What the Enviros Don't Want."
http://www.acsh.org/healthissues/newsID.1100/healthissue_detail.asp
It is full of barefaced lies, including claims that
"The environmentalists' real gripe is somewhat less likely to be articulated in the media: these groups have fought against using human toxicity data tooth and nail because they know quite well that such data will show no evidence of harm to humans from the so-called "toxins" in our environment."
In fact there has been ample evidence for decades about the harmful effects of commonly-used chemicals on humans. For examples see:
http://www.bristol.ac.uk/news/2004/594
http://www.brunel.ac.uk/news/pressoffice/pressreleases/press2004/cdata/october/airfreshener191004/
and I have come across more via the fpin website http://www.fpinva.org/Background/health.htm
although the links from the latter don't work - I had to cut and paste the article titles into Google to search for them.
The website for the dishonest article is run by the AMERICAN COUNCIL ON SCIENCE AND HEALTH (ACSH). I could not quickly find details on how the organisation is funded, so did a Google search and found this:
http://www.vegsource.com/articles/acsh_funding.htm
I was not surprised to find that ACSH is funded by all the usual suspects (Monsanto, etc.).

15.IV2005. credit to OU students for this: 1/3 UK's food gets trown:
Around one third of food grown for human consumption in the UK ends up in the rubbish bin, new figures reveal.
BBC rural affairs correspondent Tom Heap said demands for "pristine looking" produce means a lot of food does not make the grade and never leaves the farm gate.
People are eating out more and the catering industry throws away one third of all they buy, he said.
A lack of time or knowledge to use up leftovers is also to blame for increasing food wastage.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4443111.stm
In the UK, a shocking 30-40% of all food is never eaten. In the last decade the amount we binned went up by 15%. Every year each of us throws away over £400 worth of food - that's £20 billion pounds overall, enough to cover the cost of everyone's council tax.
And it's not just the financial loss. The environment suffers too. Food grown but not eaten means more farm chemicals; transported and not eaten means more food miles; processed and thrown away means more rotting food churning out methane - the most potent greenhouse gas.
Every indication is that with the continuing trend to eat out more and the rise of convenience food, the figures will only increase as they have on the other side of the Atlantic. A 10 year study by Tim Jones at the University of Arizona has shown that 40-50% of all food in the US ready for harvest never gets eaten.

20.IV2005. Natrium, diabetes, hypertension quote:
B. Excess of dietary sodium is associated with an increased incidence of arterial HT, whereas populations that take less than 30 mEq/day of sodium exhibit virtually no HT, and no rise in BP with aging. Many investigators noted a positive correlation between dietary sodium intake and BP levels in diabetic patients. Numerous studies have shown that exchangeable sodium is increased by approximately 10% in diabetic patients. The increase in exchangeable sodium shows a positive correlation with age and systolic BP. It has been suggested that increasing Na reabsorption is associated with hyperinsulinemia. This leads to an increase in intracellular sodium and calcium concentration and rise in peripheral vascular resistance. Moreover, insulin activates the sympathetic nervous system, which leads to sodium retention and elevation of BP However, due to salt sensitivity, high dietary sodium intake is a does not always cause significant BP increase. One of the reasons congenital reduction in the number of nephrons leading to a diminished capacity to excrete a normal sodium load. Nevertheless, salt sensitivity can be caused by insulin resistance, increased sympathetic activity, decreased products of prostaglandin, and endothelial defense. Salt sensitivity is associated with LVH, microalbuminuria, and CV mortality (Figure 2)

2.V2005. CO2 sequestration:
Microbiological impacts of direct carbon dioxide injection - Exploratory studies under deep-sea conditions
Douglas C. Nelson, University of California, Davis
Among strategies being considered for combating an increase in atmospheric CO2, is injection of this greenhouse gas into the deep-sea. Based on the formation of solid hydrates at sufficient pressure, discharge at a depth of approximately 3000 m at sites near the sea floor seems most likely. The biological consequences of the resultant local increase in CO2 concentration and decrease in pH (= increase in acidity) are difficult to predict. Nonetheless, the narrow range of natural pH variability found at this depth suggests that both microbes and animals evolved for optimum performance there might be sensitive to CO2-induced acidification. If a pH decrease near the point of injection is as much as a whole unit, localized die-offs of deep-sea animals are possible, which -- based on the activities of diverse microbes -- would result in increased local production of organic carbon compounds, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and nitrate. The injected CO2 stream is likely to be contaminated with other industrial gasses such as H2, CO, and SO2, which adds to the microbial transformations that must be considered. Microorganisms in the deep-sea uniquely perform several of the fundamental transformations that allow global cycles of nitrogen, carbon and sulfur to be sustained. In its essence the research in this proposal begins to test whether deep-sea injection of CO2 and resultant acidification might adversely impact the global cycle of certain major biological elements. The processes to be tested at in situ and more acidic conditions include:
1. Respiration of organic matter in the presence of oxygen. Typically, this would occur in the water column.
2. Fermentation or respiration of organic matter in the absence of oxygen. Typically this would occur in marine sediments and might also involve the reduction of nitrogen- or sulfur-compounds.
3. Oxidation of reduced inorganic compounds, e.g. ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, molecular hydrogen or carbon monoxide. These compounds will either be co-injected with CO2 or arise from sediment microbial processes discussed in point (2).
Initial studies will be undertaken with samples of natural seawater and sediment collected from 3000 m water depth at hydrostatic pressures ranging from 1 to 300 atmospheres. Changes in, and composition of, microbial communities will be monitored using molecular fingerprinting techniques.

Evaluation de la toxicité scientifique des pesticides, des médicaments, des additifs alimentaires et autres produits chimiques
Contribution au projet REACH (Régulation, Evaluation et Autorisation des Produits Chimiques) de la Commission Européenne, présentée par le comité scientifique de l'ONG "Santé Sans Frontières". Adresse temporaire c/o Pro Anima ; 16 rue Vézelay ; 75008 Paris ; France. Auteur correspondant : Dr Claude Reiss (mel : cjreiss@yahoo.com).
La Commission européenne (CE) a raison de vouloir évaluer les quelque 100 000 produits chimiques fabriqués par l'homme et auxquels nous sommes exposés, pour leurs effets sur notre santé et notre environnement (1). Cependant, le fait que le projet REACH prévoit que ces évaluations seraient effectuées aux frais du fabricant (2), qu'elles impliqueraient le sacrifice d'un très grand nombre d'animaux et qu'elles ne seraient pas terminées avant plusieurs décennies au moins, est une cause d'inquiétude pour les parties intéressées. Les industriels craignent pour leur compétitivité et leurs marges, les défenseurs des animaux s'élèvent contre ce qu'ils considèrent le plus vaste projet d'empoisonnement jamais organisée, impliquant des centaines de millions d'animaux, et les défenseurs de l'environnement veulent obtenir l'identification et le retrait des produits toxiques au plus vite, chaque jour perdu entraînant la disparition définitive d'espèces végétales ou animales et des pollutions irrémédiables ou très persistantes des ressources naturelles. Mais ce sont surtout les associations de consommateurs, de protection de la famille et les organismes dont le but est de venir en aide aux malades et de préserver la santé humaine (cancer, démences, allergies), qui s'élèvent avec le plus de véhémence contre le projet, à cause de l'inadéquation de la méthode envisagée pour l'évaluation de la toxicité des 100 000 substances (3). Certains de ces groupes mettent en question la validité pour l'homme d'évaluations de risques effectuées sur des animaux. Ils affirment que les observations d'effets toxiques chez une espèce ne sont valables que pour cette espèce, et que l'extrapolation de cette observation à une autre espèce (l'homme en particulier), est loin d'être fiable. Ils en veulent pour preuve l'évolution des données de statistique sanitaire (mortalité, morbidité) depuis l'introduction des produits chimiques dans notre environnement (en gros, depuis la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale), qui confirmerait l'impact de ces produits sur la santé humaine.
On voit que le projet REACH fait contre lui l'unanimité des parties intéressées, pour des raisons diverses. Pourtant, l'objectif d'évaluer sérieusement les risques des substances chimiques qui nous environnent ou que nous absorbons, est une priorité absolue et doit aboutir à tout prix. La présente contribution est un réexamen des conditions de mise en uvre des évaluations, prenant en considération les intérêts légitimes de toutes les parties intéressées.
Au cur de la controverse se trouve le procédé retenu pour l'évaluation des risques. REACH envisage le recours à l'expérimentation animale. Il est frappant d'observer d'un côté les progrès énormes effectués depuis un siècle par les industries chimique, pétrochimique, agrochimique et pharmaceutique dans le développement de produits hautement élaborés nécessitant des recherches de haut niveau, tandis que les procédés que la CE veut mettre en uvre pour évaluer les risques de ces produits sont très exactement les mêmes qu'il y a 150 ans et dépendent encore exclusivement d'études sur des animaux. Il convient de se demander si les progrès scientifiques récents ne pourraient pas générer des méthodes de test plus adaptées, capables de répondre aux attentes des diverses parties intéressées : moins cher, plus vite, sans animaux et surtout valable pour l'homme. Pour répondre à cette interrogation, nous examinerons ci-dessous les sept points suivants :
1) La nécessité d'évaluer les risques chimiques. L'examen de l'évolution des statistiques de santé humaine au cours de ces dernières décennies montre-t-il des tendances inquiétantes, par exemple, une augmentation de l'incidence des maladies majeures ? Si oui, quelles proportions peuvent être attribuées à une prévention insuffisante et aux produits chimiques fabriqués par l'homme ?
2) Les tests actuels permettent-ils une évaluation fiable pour l'homme ?
3) Y a-t-il de meilleures méthodes pour évaluer les risques toxiques ? Ces méthodes pourraient-elles être appliquées sans délai ?
4) L'évaluation du risque toxique par des procédures scientifiques (Toxicologie Scientifique, " TS ").
5) Les avantages de la TS par rapport aux procédures basées sur l'animal.
6) Les avantages de la TS pour les parties intéressées.
7) Mise en uvre de la TS dans l'UE.
1) Statistiques de morbidité et de mortalité dans l'UE : des tendances alarmantes.
L'espérance de vie dans les pays de l'UE est élevée, mais les taux de morbidité le sont aussi. Plusieurs millions de citoyens européens souffrent de maladies neurodégénératives graves (maladies d'Alzheimer et de Parkinson, sclérose en plaques, autisme, etc.). Bien que pour la plupart de ces maladies, l'augmentation du nombre de cas soit corrélée grossièrement avec l'allongement de l'espérance de vie, cette augmentation rapide (sclérose en plaques en particulier) est observée aussi parmi les personnes âgés de 20 à 40 ans et même chez les enfants (autisme). La montée la plus forte de morbidité et de mortalité a, cependant, été observée pour les cancers. En France, par exemple, depuis 1990, le cancer est devenu la première cause de mortalité chez les personnes âgées de 35 à 65 ans. Pour la classe d'âge des 45-49 ans, la proportion de morts dues à tous les cancers excepté celui du poumon a été multipliée par six entre 1950 et 1980 (par dix pour le cancer du poumon). 300 000 nouveaux cas de cancers sont diagnostiqués chaque année, avec une augmentation importante des cas vraisemblablement liés aux hormones : une femme sur treize était affectée du cancer du sein en 1970, une sur sept aujourd'hui.
Il est généralement admis que 5 à 10 % des cancers sont liés à des défauts génétiques. Ainsi, les facteurs exogènes, en particulier le style de vie (tabagisme, alcool, excès alimentaires, stress, etc.) et les produits carcinogènes présents dans notre alimentation et dans notre environnement sont responsables de neuf cancers sur dix. Comme les comportements à risque tendent à diminuer et que, par contre, le nombre et la quantité de produits chimiques nouveaux, donc de carcinogènes environnementaux, ne cesse d'augmenter, il est certain que ces derniers sont les principaux coupables des 1,7 millions de nouveaux cancers diagnostiqués dans les pays de l'UE chaque année. Ceci est une preuve claire que ces produits n'ont pas été testés pour leur potentiel carcinogène, ou bien, qu'ils ont été testés par des méthodes qui n'ont pu détecter ce danger.
On voit donc que le projet d'évaluation des risques chimiques est d'une urgente nécessité, et doit mettre en uvre des méthodes fiables. Pour évaluer l'efficacité de ces méthodes, examinons leurs performances dans le domaine où elles sont appliquées avec le plus de soin : l'évaluation de la toxicité des médicaments. Bien que le développement de n'importe quel médicament suppose des années de recherche et des batteries de tests, les effets secondaires de médicaments sont la quatrième cause de mortalité dans l'UE, provoquant 20 000 décès annuellement en France et quelque 120 000 dans l'UE en entier.
Il est donc indiscutable que les méthodes de test actuelles sont incapables de protéger notre santé. Quelles sont ces méthodes ? Comme requis par la loi, les tests de toxicité en général et pour les médicaments en particulier, doivent être effectués sur des animaux, c'est-à-dire des "modèles" dont on pense qu'ils présentent des réactions biologiques similaires à celles des humains.
2) Le recours au supposé modèle animal pour les problèmes de santé humaine est-il basé sur des principes raisonnables ?
Il y a une preuve simple et claire du fait qu'aucune espèce animale ne peut être prise comme modèle biologique fiable d'une autre. Une espèce est définie par son isolement reproductif, ce qui signifie que les membres d'espèces différentes ne peuvent pas se croiser. Cela est la conséquence du fait qu'une espèce donnée a un patrimoine génétique unique, qu'il s'agisse du nombre, de l'organisation et de la structure des chromosomes, ou de la régulation et du contrôle de l'expression génétique. La biologie moderne a mis en évidence que le patrimoine génétique d'un individu détermine les activités biologiques précises de ses cellules, tissus et organes. Ainsi, les individus d'espèces différentes ont des patrimoines génétiques différents et présentent donc des activités biologiques différentes, pouvant, selon, paraître similaires, différentes ou opposées à celles d'une autre espèce. Du fait de ce comportement biologique aléatoire, l'affirmation que les membres d'une espèce donnée peuvent se substituer comme modèles biologiques fiables pour une autre espèce est donc fausse.
En particulier, l'hypothèse que les résultats obtenus chez certains mammifères seraient applicables aux humains est non fondée et compromet sérieusement la santé humaine. Considérons, par exemple, le chimpanzé, notre parent le plus proche en termes évolutifs. Exposé au virus de l'immunodéficience humaine (VIH), le chimpanzé ne développe pas de maladie - chez les humains, il provoque le SIDA. Si on lui injecte le virus de l'hépatite B, un chimpanzé sur dix peut développer une forme atténuée d'hépatite et il récupérera rapidement - chez les humains, ce virus provoque une hépatite chronique et parfois le cancer du foie. Et, quand on lui injecte le virus Ebola, le chimpanzé meurt de fièvre hémorragique, comme les humains. En d'autres termes, le meilleur modèle animal se comporte d'une manière opposée, différente ou identique aux humains, face à un facteur donné. Personne ne pourrait avoir prévu ces résultats, qui ne peuvent être obtenus qu'après observation chez les deux espèces. Tester sur les modèles animaux est donc inutile au mieux, dangereux au pire, parfois fatal pour les humains : le scandale français du sang contaminé a eu lieu parce que les "experts", notant que le chimpanzé ne présentait pas de réaction, ont approuvé la mise sur le marché de ce sang.
Une estimation conservatrice du nombre de morts en France, résultant de cette méthodologie imparfaite d'évaluation de la toxicité des médicaments et produits carcinogènes seuls, est de 100 000 à 120 000 par an. En supposant que des taux similaires per capita soient valides dans les autres nations de l'UE, quelque 600 000 à 750 000 citoyens européens mourront prématurément année près année, à cause des effets secondaires des médicaments et des produits carcinogènes présents dans notre environnement.
3) Comment évaluer correctement le risque toxique pour les humains ?
Recourir aux animaux pour évaluer les risques toxiques pour les humains nous ramène à des temps médiévaux, quand c'était la seule manière d'avoir une vague indication du risque. A présent, la révolution scientifique nous propose des moyens beaucoup plus fiables. Cette toxicologie scientifique se comprend à partir de deux remarques de base.
Premièrement, la toxicologie est la science de la vie (biologie) dans un environnement de produits toxiques (xénobiotiques). Au cours du demi-siècle passé, la biologie a fait des progrès sans précédent, s'éloignant de l'empirisme vers la science et, même, vers une science exacte quand on en vient à la biologie cellulaire et moléculaire. La toxicologie peut bénéficier des concepts, méthodes et outils développés dans cette biologie moderne et ainsi obtenir le statut d'une science presque exacte.
Deuxièmement, c'est dans la cellule que la vie commence. Il n'est donc pas surprenant (et c'est entièrement soutenu par la biologie moderne) que les réponses à pratiquement tous les problèmes biologiques doivent d'abord être recherchées au niveau de la cellule. Les maladies humaines ont presque toutes une origine cellulaire, que la cause soit endogène (dans l'organisme) ou exogène (hors de l'organisme). Cela est vrai pour le cancer, les neuropathologies et les maladies cardiovasculaires, pour citer les maladies les plus fréquentes et graves dans les pays de l'UE. Il s'ensuit que les dommages causés à une cellule par une substance toxique est la première étape des maladies.
L'étude des cellules humaines dans l'environnement de produits toxiques sera donc la première étape pour une évaluation fiable de la toxicité pour les humains. La biologie moderne a aussi fait des progrès impressionnants dans l'étude des systèmes intégrés au niveau du tissu, de l'organe et systémique. Des méthodes non invasives (diverses tomographies, tests fonctionnels des activités biochimiques dans les organes, etc.) permettent l'évaluation complète du risque moléculaire et cellulaire de substances auxquelles les consommateurs sont fortement exposés (médicaments, additifs alimentaires, pesticides, etc.).
4) Toxicologie scientifique ("TS").
Notre objectif ici n'est pas de mettre en avant un programme scientifique détaillé de TS mais d'esquisser, pour une large audience intéressée, les grandes lignes de la TS moléculaire et cellulaire, en nous basant sur quinze années d'expérience dans ce domaine. En fait, non seulement certains des scientifiques qui ont contribué à ce rapport ont été actifs dans la réalisation de recherches et le développement de méthodes et d'outils pour la TS, mais ils ont aussi organisé des workshops internationaux destinés à réunir des spécialistes du monde entier dans leur domaine particulier de la toxicologie moléculaire et cellulaire -notamment, le Premier workshop européen de toxicologie moléculaire, Sophia Antipolis (France) 1996, le deuxième wokshop européen de toxicologie moléculaire, Paris, 1999)- et publié les comptes rendus de ces workshops : Molecular Toxicology, 1997 (VSP publishing, Reiss, Parvez et Labbe éditeurs), Molecular Responses to Xenobiotics, 2001 (Elsevier publishing, Parvez, Reiss et Labbe éditeurs) et le numéro spécial de Toxicology 153 (2000, nos 1-3, éditeurs invités Parvez et Reiss).
La toxicité peut provoquer des réponses aiguës et systémiques ; ces réponses peuvent être retardées du fait d'une accumulation de dommages mineurs qui arrivent finalement à surmonter la défense cellulaire et les mécanismes de réparation, ou bien, parce que le développement de la maladie est long. Un exemple typique de ce retard est le cancer, car il faut en moyenne cinq à dix ans entre le déclenchement de la prolifération d'une cellule et le diagnostic de la tumeur. Les états neurodégénératifs sont aussi très longs à apparaître. D'où la nécessité d'évaluer les réponses toxiques à la fois à court et à long terme.
Les études cellulaires sont idéalement adaptées à cette fin. Elles sont réalisées idéalement sur des cultures primaires, mais les lignées cellulaires établies permettent des examens préliminaires faciles. Un complément intéressant aux méthodes décrites ci-dessous est l'évaluation in silico des effets toxiques d'une molécule, dérivés de sa structure chimique (relation structure -activité), qui est de plus en plus fiable dans la prévision des activités biologiques néfastes de la molécule avant même qu'elle n'ait été synthétisée.
4.1 Toxicologie moléculaire et cellulaire.
4.1.1 Métabolisation du xénobotique (substance d'origine non biologique). Pour enter dans la cellule, le xénobiotique doit traverser des barrières lipidiques ou aqueuses et doit parfois être métabolisé à cette fin. Cela peut être effectué en activant l'expression de divers gènes codant pour des enzymes de métabolisation spécifiques (les monooxygénases, y compris les membres de la famille du cytochrome P450, les acétyltransférases, les époxyde hydrolases, les glutathio-S-transférases, les méthyltransférases, les sulfotransférases, les UDP-glycosyltransférases, etc.) des facteurs de transcription nucléaires (comme le récepteur PRX activé par une majorité de médicaments et impliqué dans de nombreux effets secondaires de médicaments), des transporteurs de xénobiotiques (métallothionéines, famille de la glycoprotéine-P), etc. Les métabolites obtenus doivent être soigneusement identifiés, car certains sont très toxiques, même si le xénobiotique non métabolisé ne l'est pas. Comme les principales cibles du xénobiotique sont le rein et le foie, les cellules de ces organes doivent être testées en premier. Plusieurs méthodes permettent de le faire : le test in vitro de l'activité enzymatique des gènes impliqués ; les puces à ADN (kits disponibles dans le commerce), qui permettent le contrôle de l'expression d'un grand nombre de ces gènes ; l'identification des métabolites par spectrométrie de masse ; etc.
4.1.2 Evaluation de la toxicité intracellulaire. Une fois que le xénobiotique ou son métabolite est entré dans la cellule, l'effet sur cette dernière et sa descendance doit être contrôlé. En réponse à une agression, même modérée, la cellule mobilisera une série de gènes, soit pour se protéger soit pour réparer le dommage.
De nombreux gènes (de stress ou d'enzymes de réparation) sont connus et peuvent être recrutés comme "reporters" : ils fournissent des informations sur la cible du xénobiotique, l'étendue du dommage et la capacité de la cellule à le surmonter. Les reporters permettent aussi de contrôler le devenir de la cellule exposée à diverses doses du produit, nous informant sur sa capacité à survivre et comment elle va faire face au produit à long terme. A présent, des cellules chargées de gènes reporters sont disponibles dans le commerce, permettant la mise en évidence rapide et peu coûteuse de stress (y compris oxydatif), de divers types de dommages à l'ADN, de dommages à la membrane, etc., en réponse au xénobiotique testé.
L'inconvénient des reporters est la nécessité de deviner le(s) gène(s) ciblé(s) par le xénobiotique. Ce problème est surmonté avec les puces à ADN portant des centaines ou des milliers de gènes connus pour être impliqués dans la réponse toxique (toxicogénomique). Par des manipulations biochimiques standard, l'expression de chacun de ces gènes peut être visualisée. Les puces permettent d'observer la transcription simultanée, dans le noyau cellulaire, de tous les gènes présents sur la puce, que ces gènes soient stimulés, réprimés ou non affectés par le xénobiotique.
Les puces à ADN sont actuellement les outils de pointe pour suivre la première partie - la transcription - de l'expression génique. Pour avoir une vue complète de l'effet du xénobiotique sur l'expression génique, la deuxième partie de cette expression - la traduction - au cours de laquelle le produit du gène est réellement synthétisé, doit aussi être suivie. Cela peut être fait avec les outils de la toxicoprotéomique (gel 2D d'électrophorèse capillaire, puces de protéines, spectrométrie de masse et de nombreuses nouvelles méthodes en développement rapide). La toxicoprotéomique rend compte des modifications de la protéine induites par le xénobiotique (chimiques ou structurales), les modifications des processus protéolytiques, l'agrégation etc., modifications qui ont été identifiées récemment comme des stades importants dans de nombreuses maladies graves (troubles neurodégénératifs, certaines démences, diabète de type 2, etc.).
Les effets génotoxiques des xénobiotiques doivent être identifiés et contrôlés avec une attention particulière, car l'échec de cette évaluation est le principal facteur responsable de la montée importante de l'incidence du cancer observée ces 50 dernières années. Les mutations de l'ADN peuvent être contrôlées par de nombreuses techniques (directement sur l'ADN : précisément (séquençage) ou grossièrement (test "Comète") ; ou indirectement en contrôlant l'expression des gènes de réparation de l'ADN). La tumorigenèse est favorisée par la mutation ou l'inactivation de gènes impliqués dans la régulation de la croissance et de la division cellulaire. Ces mutations dérèglent le contrôle de la mort cellulaire programmée, qui se fait normalement en réponse aux facteurs de croissance, de la migration cellulaire, etc. Des puces à ADN déjà disponibles permettent de caractériser le statut de la transcription de plusieurs centaines de gènes impliqués dans la tumorigenèse quand la cellule est exposée à un xénobiotique.
Les événements carcinogènes peuvent aussi être induits par des mécanismes non génotoxiques se produisant à diverses étapes (points de contrôle) du cycle cellulaire (division) ou au niveau de l'organisation supérieure du matériel génétique (chromatine). Les dénommés "suppresseurs de tumeurs" comme, par exemple, la célèbre protéine p53, un des gardiens du génome, présentent un grand intérêt. Cette protéine contrôle l'intégrité du matériel génétique de la cellule. Si un événement mutagène se produit, p53 interrompt le cycle cellulaire jusqu'à ce que le dommage ait été réparé. Si la réparation n'a pas pu être faite en quelques heures, p53 forcera la cellule à l'apoptose (suicide), empêchant la transmission du dommage à sa descendance. Les xénobiotiques qui endommagent p53 (ou d'autres suppresseurs de tumeurs), soit en mutant son gène ou par modification de sa structure, aboliront cette activité de gardien et les mutations pourront alors se propager à la descendance de la cellule et, éventuellement, induire une prolifération cellulaire incontrôlée. Plus de la moitié des tumeurs solides portent des formes inactives de p53. De nombreux kits commerciaux sont disponibles pour contrôler l'état des suppresseurs de tumeurs au niveau de la transcription ou de la protéine, en particulier pour les cancers dont on pense qu'ils dépendent d'hormones (cancer du sein et signalisation du récepteur des oestrogènes, cancer de la prostate et signalisation des androgènes). Des puces à ADN sont aussi disponibles pour contrôler l'expression, en présence d'un xénobiotique, de centaines de gènes humains impliqués dans les étapes majeures de la tumorigenèse, de la dérégulation des voies de la croissance et de la division cellulaire, la réponse au dommage de l'ADN, la stabilité et la réparation du génome, de l'adhésion cellulaire, l'invasion, la métastase, l'angiogenèse, etc.
Les xénobiotiques cytotoxiques ciblent l'organisation de la cellule, son équipement, son métabolisme, etc. Cette toxicité est souvent signalée par l'expression intense des gènes de stress (en particulier du stress oxydatif). Les cellules répondent initialement en produisant des "chaperones" et d'autres enzymes pour se protéger de l'action du xénobiotique. La gravité et la longueur de l'exposition peuvent stimuler plus ou moins de réponses cellulaires globales, telles que l'arrêt de la croissance, la sénescence, la nécrose, la mort cellulaire par apoptose et même la prolifération cellulaire. Par exemple, certains xénobiotiques peuvent déclencher la voie de l'apoptose impliquant la famille de gènes Bcl2. Les protéines correspondantes s'oligomérisent et s'insèrent dans la membrane mitochondriale, induisant la libération de son contenu (y compris la famille CARD), dont certains éléments déclenchent la mort cellulaire. La cytotoxicité peut être établie en contrôlant l'expression d'une longue liste de gènes de ménage et de gènes impliqués dans la nécrose, l'apoptose, l'arrêt de croissance, la sénescence, etc.
Les méthodes mentionnées jusqu'à présent peuvent être appliquées à n'importe quel type de cellule, mais celles des organes les plus exposés aux xénobiotiques (foie, rein, peau) doivent être évaluées en premier.
Des méthodes spécifiques existent pour l'évaluation d'une variété de xénobiotiques qui ciblent des fonctions biologiques particulières. En voici une courte liste :
La toxicité reproductive peut être contrôlée au niveau cellulaire par l'étude de l'activation des récepteurs hormonaux présents à la surface de cellules spécifiques. Par exemple, les "proliférateurs endocriniens" peuvent mimer les hormones naturelles et induire de façon excessive le signal spécifique d'une hormone, ou saturer des récepteurs et ainsi empêcher l'accès à l'hormone normale et la délivrance de son signal. Les xénobiotiques, y compris une large classe de pesticides, qui peuvent produire des anomalies dans les organes reproducteurs mâles ou favoriser des tumeurs dans les tissus et les organes qui sont sous contrôle hormonal (sein, ovaire, prostate), peuvent être identifiés dans des cultures de cellules prélevées de ces organes et tissus.
La toxicité développementale (y compris la tératogenèse) des xénobiotiques ciblant le cycle cellulaire, les facteurs d croissance ou les composants cellulaires impliqués dans la signalisation du développement (classes d'ARN, composants de la chromatine, etc.), peut être évaluée en contrôlant l'interaction du xénobiotique avec ces composants moléculaires de la cellule. Des puces à ADN sont disponibles pour contrôler l'action des xénobiotiques sur de nombreux gènes humains impliqués dans la régulation des phases de cycle (cyclines, kinases dépendantes de la cycline, et leurs régulateurs : inhibiteurs, phosphatases et kinases).
La neurotoxicité peut être la conséquence de l'action d'un xénobiotique sur les molécules impliquées dans la communication neuronale - une majorité d'insecticides ciblent ces molécules ! Plusieurs méthodes standard permettent d'évaluer ce type de toxicité sur les cellules neuronales en culture. Les signaux électrochimiques encodés le long d'un neurone, ou d'un neurone à l'autre, ont pour intermédiaire trois classes de canaux ioniques (canaux passifs, qui maintiennent le potentiel membranaire de repos ; canaux à commande chimique qui reconnaissent les neurotransmetteurs et initient un potentiel d 'action ; et canaux voltage-dépendants qui propagent le potentiel d'action) ; et deux larges classes de neurotransmetteurs (ceux agissant directement sur les canaux ioniques à commande chimique et les faisant s'ouvrir, et ceux agissant indirectement et plus lentement , impliquant les récepteurs couplés à la protéine G et la production de messagers secondaires). Les puces à ADN portant les gènes des canaux ioniques et des transporteurs de neurotransmetteur (y compris les neurotrophines, que l'on pense jouer un rôle important dans le développement neuronal) sont disponibles pour contrôler l'effet d'un xénobiotique sur ces acteurs essentiels en neurobiologie.
Les agents neurotoxiques peuvent aussi cibler les cellules neuronales en affectant leur capacité à synthétiser des protéines dans leur conformation native. Les protéines mal conformées tendent à s'accumuler dans ou autour de la cellule, à s'agréger et à former des fibres, des plaques ou des enchevêtrements qui forcent la cellule à commettre l'apoptose ou affectent la communication entre cellules. Le parkinsonisme (apoptose des cellules dopaminergiques), la maladie d'Alzheimer (dépôts de plaques amyloïdes et de fibres tau), la maladie de Creutzfeldt-Jakob (dépôt de prions) et plus de vingt autres formes de démence appartenant à la famille des "maladies conformationnelles" peuvent résulter de la production de protéines mal repliées. Les xénobiotiques peuvent cibler l'équipement cellulaire responsable de la production de protéines, soit directement (production de stress qui mobilise et isole excessivement les protéines de stress, comme les chaperones impliquées dans le repliement des protéines) ou indirectement (production non programmée de grandes quantités de protéines, ou prolifération cellulaire, qui diminue les ressources de la cellule pour la synthèse protéique et favorise ainsi le mauvais repliement des protéines). Tester des xénobiotiques pour leur capacité à induire le mauvais repliement des protéines, directement en utilisant les gènes reporters, est une nécessité urgente, si l'on considère le nombre important de patients âgés et, de plus en plus, les personnes de moins de 40 ans souffrant de maladies conformationnelles affaiblissantes.
Immunotoxicité : réponse inflammatoire. L'inflammation est à la fois la réponse normale du corps aux pathogènes et un intermédiaire clé des états maladifs tels que l'allergie, l'asthme et l'arthrite qui peuvent être induits par les xénobiotiques. La cascade de signalisation de la réponse inflammatoire est propagée par la sécrétion de petites glycoprotéines (cytokines) et leur liaison à des récepteurs de cellules cibles. Les puces à ADN portant des dizaines de gènes de cytokines humaines impliquées dans la réponse inflammatoire et des gènes de leurs récepteurs, sont disponibles, permettant la détermination simultanée des profils d'expression de ces gènes dans les cellules exposées à un xénobiotique imunotoxique donné.
Il existe des méthodes moléculaires pour évaluer la toxicité membranaire (modification de la polarité, taille et structure des couches lipidiques, etc.) et la toxicité épigénétique (méthylation de l'ADN, acylation ou phosphorylation de la chromatine, qui peuvent sérieusement affecter le programme d'expression génique), etc. A cause du polymorphisme de la population humaine, l'évaluation de la toxicité pour les classes de la population partageant des profils polymorphes peut être effectuée en utilisant des puces à ADN spécifiques de classe qui, par exemple, permettraient de lister les xénobiotiques particulièrement nuisibles, ou au contraire sûrs, pour les membres de la classe (toxicologie spécifique de polymorphisme et idiosyncratique). Par exemple, un polymorphisme humain important est trouvé dans la famille P450 des enzymes de métabolisation.
4.1.3 La toxicité de transduction de signal et intercellulaire cible les interactions cellule-cellule et cellule-matrice extracelullaire (jonctions communicantes), les processus endocrines et exocrines, etc. De nombreux types cellulaires reçoivent des signaux externes (des hormones) qu'ils transduisent (traduisent) par un mécanisme (voie de transduction de signal) en changeant leur comportement ou caractéristiques. Les récepteurs couplés à la protéine G, par exemple, forment une grande famille de récepteurs de surface impliqués dans la transduction de signal. Ils sont activés par une grande variété de signaux, y compris les produit chimiques et la plupart des médicaments. Le stress chimique peut activer la transduction de signal via le facteur de transcription NFkB, libéré par la phosphorylation de la famille de protéines inhibitrices IkB ou des sous-unités Rel. Une fois que NFkB est transloqué dans le noyau, il induit la transcription et l'expression de nombreux gènes tels que ceux encodant les cytokines, les molécules d'adhérence, les inhibiteurs d'apoptose, etc. La signaliation par la MAP kinase opère par une cascade de kinases qui activent aussi les facteurs de transcription d'une variété de gènes. La signalisation par la superfamille du TGFb entraîne l'inhibition de la croissance. A nouveau, les puces à ADN portant des centaines de gènes humains impliqués dans la transcription de signal peuvent contrôler l'action des xénobiotiques sur ces gènes.
Le devenir de la matrice extracellulaire (le substrat auquel les cellules s'attachent, via les molécules d'adhérence, pour aider à définir la forme, la structure et la fonction du tissu), quand elle est exposée à un xénobiotique, peut être contrôlé via le profil d'expression de molécules impliquées dans les interactions cellule-cellule et cellule-tissu, telles que les molécules d'adhérence cellulaire (intégrines, cadhérines, caténines, sélectines), les protéines de la matrice extracellulaire (lamines, fibronectine, fibrinogène), les protéases (métalloprotéinases de la matrice, sérine et cystéine protéinases, cathepsine) et les inhibiteurs de protéase (maspine). Les réseaux à ADN sont disponibles pour contrôler l'expression de centaines de gènes impliqués, fournissant des informations valables sur l'effet d'un xénobiotique sur les étapes primaires du développement du tissu et de l'organe.
En résumé, en utilisant les techniques basées sur la toxicité moléculaire, nous pouvons obtenir une vue claire du mécanisme par lequel la substance ou le produit est dangereux, à quelle dose la cellule peut résister et, le plus important, l'effet à long terme sur la cellule. L'expérience prend quelques jours en moyenne, peut être effectuée en grands ensembles parallèles de criblage (divers types cellulaires ou doses, par exemple), est relativement peu coûteuse, facile à standardiser et nécessite des quantités infimes du xénobiotique (important dans le test des médicaments). Les résultats sont quantitatifs (large plage de dose-réponse linéaire), reproductibles et, le plus important, sont valides pour l'espèce qui a fourni les cellules. Ces points représentent des avantages scientifiques et économiques certains, même si des compétences techniques de pointe sont nécessaires pour la plupart de ces méthodes.
4.2 Evaluation scientifique de la toxicité d'organe, de tissu et systémique
Nous estimons que l'évaluation du risque toxique par des approches moléculaires et cellulaires peut être étendue avec environ 90 % de fiabilité à l'organe, au tissu et au niveau systémique. Néanmoins, cette incertitude doit encore être réduite, en particulier pour les médicaments et les produits auxquels les consommateurs sont exposés pendant de longues périodes ou à des doses élevées (additifs alimentaires, pesticides). Dans certains cas particuliers, le produit peut être testé sur des tissus perfusés ou des tranches d'organe, afin de contrôler la réponse des cellules intégrées dans leur environnement normal. Du fait des problèmes de fourniture et de dégradation rapide des tranches, ces tests sont difficiles à effectuer en routine. Il est plus facile de s'en remettre aux méthodes non invasives sur des volontaires humains en conditions de test clinique strictes (avec consentement informé), pour contrôler l'effet du xénobiotique sur le tissu ou l'organe en fonctionnement in situ. Les techniques d'imagerie (MRI, PET, scan, etc.) ont une valeur particulière puisqu'elles permettent d'identifier l'organe ciblé par le xénobiotique et de visualiser le métabolisme et l'élimination du produit. Des informations complémentaires valables sur le fonctionnement d'organes particuliers peuvent être obtenues par les tests biochimiques et biomédicaux standard.
5) Avantages de la TS (toxicologie scientifique) par rapport à l'évaluation de la toxicité traditionnelle (recherche basée sur les animaux)
Comme montré précédemment, les réactions biologiques des individus d'une espèce donnée sont uniques. Les individus d'espèces différentes peuvent, à l'occasion, présenter des réponses grossièrement similaires quand ils sont exposés au même produit toxique, mais on ne doit jamais se laisser tromper par ces phénomènes de hasard. Premièrement, et le plus important, le mécanisme par lequel un produit induit une réaction pathologique peut être assez différent dans des espèces différentes. Parmi les médicaments utilisés, 60 % sont métabolisés, chez les humains, par le même membre de la famille des P450 (ce qui peut conduire à une activation du médicament synergique), mais plusieurs membres différents de la famille des P450 sont impliqués chez les singes, les chiens ou les rongeurs. Deuxièmement, les effets à long terme chez les humains sont impossibles à évaluer dans un espèce avec une espérance de vie plus courte. Chez les souris, le développement spontané du cancer commence à l'âge de 10 mois, alors que chez les humains il commence en général après l'âge de 40 ans, et les mécanismes qui favorisent le cancer sont très différents dans chaque espèce. La susceptibilité au cancer de différentes souches de souris peut varier jusqu'à cent fois, certaines souches tolérant, sans effets de maladie apparents, des doses d'oestrogène qui sont de nombreuses fois supérieures à celles qui rendent malades d'autres souches. Même si les réponses grossières dans deux espèces différentes se ressemblent sur le court terme, le mécanisme sous-jacent qui détermine le résultat à long terme est très vraisemblablement différent et peut donc aboutir à des résultats très différents, sur des années. Incidemment, notons qu'il serait naturellement inutile de réaliser une TS pour un espèce donnée sur des cellules d'une espèce différente.
6) Avantages pour les parties intéressées
L'avantage le plus évident serait la sécurité du consommateur. La TS permet de comprendre le mécanisme par lequel une substance produit ses effets toxiques, ce qui aide à prévoir ses effets à long terme. En identifiant les produits favorisant le cancer, la prévention en serait significativement améliorée. Nous estimons que les chiffres de morbidité du cancer seraient ainsi divisés par deux les trois à cinq années suivantes. L'évaluation fiable de la toxicité des médicaments pourrait sauver des dizaines de milliers de vies chaque année. Les substances neurotoxiques (80 % des insecticides sont neurotoxiques pour les insectes ; qu'en est-il pour les humains ?) pourraient être identifiées et retirées du marché, prévenant les dommages du développement neuronal des enfants - selon la FDA, l'insecticide roténone entraînerait de tels dommages. La détection et le retrait des proliférateurs endocriniens préviendrait à la fois le développement anormal des organes sexuels et de la plupart des cancers induits par les hormones (sein, ovaire, prostate).
Une sécurité du consommateur améliorée entraînerait le soulagement immédiat des coûts socio-économiques résultant des maladies, dont les taux sont présentement en plein essor dans les pays de l'UE.
Les avantages des évaluations par la TS pour l'industrie sont nombreux. Les expériences de TS prennent quelques jours en moyenne, peuvent être effectuées dans de grands ensembles parallèles de criblage (avec divers types cellulaires ou doses, par exemple), sont relativement peu coûteuses, faciles à standardiser et nécessitent des quantités infimes du xénobiotique (important dans le test sur les médicaments). Les résultats sont quantitatifs (avec une large plage de dose -réponse linéaire), reproductibles et, le plus important, fiables et valides pour l'espèce examinée. De plus, la compréhension du mécanisme de l'effet toxique peut permettre aux chimistes de modifier le xénobiotique pour annuler ou réduire sa toxicité (avec l'aide des modèles de relation structure-activité, par exemple) ou pour améliorer sa qualité - et l'image du fabriquant ! Comme les tests de TS sont facilement standardisés et indépendants de paramètres subjectifs, ils restent valides à travers les frontières politiques, ce qui permet la circulation sans limite des biens testés par TS parmi les pays de l'UE et à l'étranger.
Bien que des compétences techniques avancées soient nécessaires pour la plupart des méthodes de TS et que l'équipement de laboratoire requis soit coûteux, cela serait plus que contrebalancé par les avantages scientifiques, économiques et de santé publique.
Les procédures de TS s'appliquent aussi à d'autres espèces et peuvent donc être utilisées pour évaluer les toxicités environnementales dans toute espèce animale ou végétale.
Comme les procédures de TS évitent nécessairement les espèces "modèles", elles satisferaient aussi les associations de protection animale.
Enfin, la mise en oeuvre des méthodes de TS améliorerait l'image de l'UE, à la fois à l'intérieur des pays membres (les consommateurs seraient reconnaissants pour une meilleure protection de leur santé) et à l'extérieur, car l'Union pourrait montrer la voie d'une amélioration du traitement des problèmes de santé environnementale dans le monde entier.
7) Comment favoriser la mise en oeuvre rapide et pratique de la TS dans l'UE ?
Une stratégie pour introduire la TS pourrait être basée sur les étapes suivantes :
1. Elaborer un programme de TS détaillé. A cette fin, créer et financer un comité de spécialistes (nos organisations sont prêtes à apporter leur expérience).
2. Financer et mettre en place un laboratoire pilote de TS européen (par exemple, au centre de recherche conjointe).
3. Financer et former des toxicologues TS. Organiser un cours de formation de 6 à 8 mois dans le laboratoire pilote pour les étudiants de maîtrise et de post-maîtrise de tous les pays européens, avec des conférences et des cours donnés par les spécialistes leaders dans le domaine.
4. Encourager tous les pays de l'UE à mettre en place des laboratoires pilotes de TS pour une formation, assurée par des toxicologues TS professionnels ou, plus localement, des toxicologues déjà sensibilisés à la TS.
5. Encourager les initiatives industrielles de conversion aux méthodes de TS.
6. Publier des directives établissant que tout nouveau produit mis sur le marché doit avoir été testé par les méthodes de TS, aux niveaux moléculaire et cellulaire pour les produits pour lesquels l'exposition est limitée et au niveau du tissu ou organe (en particulier le foie et le rein) et systémique pour les produits pour lesquels l'exposition est importante (médicaments, additifs alimentaires, pesticides, etc.). Les produits déjà sur le marché devraient être testés par les méthodes de TS dans les trois à cinq ans. Ceux qui ne passeraient pas le test devraient être retirés.

Scientific Toxicity Assessment of Pesticides,
Drugs, Food Additives and other Chemicals.
Contribution to REACH (Regulation, Evaluation and Authorization of Chemicals) EC body,
Presented by the Scientific board of the NGO "HEALTH WITHOUT FRONTIERS", temporary address c/o PRO ANIMA, 16 rue Vézelay F75008 Paris France, corresponding author at E-mail cjreiss@yahoo.com
European Union authorities are right in deciding that the 100,000 man-made chemicals to which we are exposed must be assessed for their adverse effects on our health and our environment (1). However, the prospect (2) that these assessments will be carried out at the manufacturers' expense, that they will involve a very large number of animals and that they will not be completed for several decades at least, is cause for concern (3). Those most concerned are consumer organisations and private charities whose aim it is to promote human health (see 4). Some of these groups have challenged the scientific validity of such observations and results, since they would be obtained from animal-based research, and contend that the adverse effects of chemicals can only be reliably assessed for the species tested and are irrelevant for any other species, humans in particular. They claim also that health statistics data fully support their case.
It is in fact striking to observe the huge progress made over the past century by the chemical, petrochemical, agrochemical and pharmaceutical industries in the development of products, whilst the methods for assessing the risks of chemical products have remained almost unchanged and still depend exclusively on animal models. It is therefore timely, before starting risk assessments of the 100,000 chemicals, to carefully examine whether recent scientific progress, which has contributed more accurate testing methods, could provide benefits, especially by improving consumer safety. To this end, we will examine the following seven topics:
1) Human health statistics gathered over the past few decades: do these statistics point towards negative health trends, eg, an increase in the incidence of major diseases? If so, what proportions can be ascribed to insufficient prevention and to man-made chemicals?
2) Are the testing procedures at present in use satisfactory for the reliable prevention of major diseases?
3) Are there better methods for assessing toxic risks? Can such methods be applied without delay?
4) Science-based toxic risk assessment (SBT).
5) Merits of SBT over animal-model-based procedures.
6) Merits and benefits of SBT for interested parties.
7) SBT in the EU
1) Morbidity and mortality statistics in the EU: alarming trends
Despite the fact that life expectancy in EU countries is high, this benefit is offset by high morbidity rates. Several million EU citizens suffer debilitating neurodegenerative conditions (Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis (MS), autism etc). Although for most of these diseases the increase in the number of cases correlates roughly with the increase in life expectancy, a rapid increase in neurodegenerative conditions (MS in particular) has been observed among people between 20 and 40 years of age and even in children (autism). The steepest rise in morbidity and mortality has, however, been seen in cancer. In France, for instance, the number-one cause of death since 1990 for people aged 35 to 65 years has been cancer. The proportion of deaths due to all cancers, except lung cancer, among people aged 40 to 45 years has increased six-fold between 1950 and 1980, and 300,000 new cancers are diagnosed annually, with a significant increase in the number of cancer cases likely to be linked to hormones. One woman out of thirteen was affected by breast cancer in 1970. Today, it is one in seven.
It is generally agreed that 5-10% of all cancers are linked to genetic defects, and this figure has remained fairly constant. Hence, exogenous (outside) factors, especially lifestyle (smoking, alcohol, dietary excess, etc) and carcinogenic (cancer-promoting) products present in our food and in our environment are responsible for nine out of ten cancers. Since lifestyle has steadily improved over the past decades (less smoking, more modest and balanced diets), it is likely that environmental carcinogens are now the main culprits responsible for causing the 1.7 million new cancers diagnosed in EU countries annually. This is clear evidence that these products have either not been tested for their carcinogenic potential or have been tested by methods which have failed to detect this danger.
To assess the efficacy of these methods, let us examine how they perform in an area where they are applied most stringently: the assessment of prescription drug toxicity. Despite the fact that many years of research are invested in any particular drug development and testing, adverse drug reactions (side effects) rank as the fourth leading cause of death in the EU, claiming 20,000 lives annually in France (and some 120,000 lives in the EU as a whole).
It is obvious, then, that current testing methods are failing to protect public health efficiently enough. What are these methods? As required by law, toxicity testing in general, and for prescription drugs in particular, must be performed on animals, ie, 'models' which are believed to display biological reactions similar to those of humans. It is therefore worthwhile analysing the relevance of the 'animal model' concept in relation to human health.
2) Is resorting to animal models for human-health issues based on rational principles?
There is remarkably simple yet clear proof that no animal species can substitute as a reliable biological model for another species. A species is defined in terms of its reproductive isolation, meaning that members from different species cannot interbreed. This is because a given species has its own unique genetic make-up (from number, organisation and structure of chromosomes, through to regulation and control of gene expression). Modern biology has clearly demonstrated that the genetic make-up of an individual determines the precise biological activities of its cells, tissues, and organs. Hence, individuals from different species have different genetic make-ups and therefore display different biological activities, even if some appear similar. The statement that members of a given species can substitute as reliable biological models for other species is therefore invalid.
In particular, the assumption that results obtained in some mammalian species are valid for humans is unfounded and seriously compromises human health. Consider, for instance, the chimpanzee, our closest relative (in evolutionary terms). If exposed to the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the chimpanzee does not respond ; in humans it causes AIDS; if injected with the hepatitis B virus, one out of ten or so chimpanzees might develop a mild form of hepatitis and will recover quickly ; in humans, the virus causes chronic hepatitis and sometimes liver cancer; and the chimpanzee, when injected with the Ebola virus, dies of haemorrhagic fever, as do humans. In other words, the best animal model ever behaves in an opposite, different or identical way to humans, depending on the challenging factor. Nobody could have forecasted these results, which can only be arrived at after observing the test in both species. Testing animal models is therefore useless at best and is at worst dangerous, sometimes fatal, to humans: the French blood scandal occurred because 'experts', noting that the chimpanzee showed no response, approved of HIV-contaminated blood samples going onto the market.
A conservative estimate of the number of deaths in France, resulting from this flawed methodology of testing prescription drugs and carcinogenic products alone, ranges from 100,000 to 120,000 a year. Assuming that similar rates per capita are valid in other EU nations, some 600,000 to 750,000 citizens will die prematurely within the EU year after year, because of side effects of drugs and carcinogenic products present in our environement.
3) What is the basis of valid toxic risk assessment for humans?
Resorting to animals for assessing toxic risks in humans goes back to medieval times, as it was then the only way to get a vague indication of the risk. At present however, the scientific revolution provides us with far more reliable means for toxic risk assessment. This science-based toxicology builts on two basic remarks.
First, toxicology is the science of life (biology) in an environment of toxic products (xenobiotics). Over the past half-century, biology has made unprecedented leaps, moving away from empiricism and towards science, and even almost exact science when it comes to cellular and molecular biology. Toxicology can benefit from the concepts, methods and tools developed in such modern biology and thereby achieve also the status of an almost exact science.
Second, the cell is where life starts. It is therefore not surprising (and fully supported by modern biology) that the answers to practically all biological problems must first be sought at the level of the cell. Human diseases almost invariably have a cellular origin, whether the cause is endogenous (in the organism) or exogenous (outside the organism). This holds true for cancer, neuropathologies and cardiovascular diseases, to cite the most frequent and life-threatening diseases in EU countries. It follows that harm done to the cell by a toxic substance is the first step to diseases linked to the body's environment (including food, polluting substances etc).
The stage is thus set for Science-Based Toxicology (SBT), as opposed to the traditional toxicity assessment by means of animal models. SBT has its roots in modern molecular and cellular biology, from which it selects and adapts the methods and tools best suited for its goals.
The study of human cells in the environment of toxic products will therefore be the first step for reliable toxicity assessment in humans. Modern biology has also made impressive progress in the study of integrated systems at the tissue, organ and systemic levels. Non-invasive methods (various tomographies, functional testing of biochemical activities in organs etc) are available, allowing to complete molecular and cellular human-risk assessments of substances to which consumers are extensively exposed (prescription drugs, food additives, pesticides etc).
4) Science-Based Toxicology (SBT)
Our purpose here is not to advance a detailed scientific programme of SBT but to sketch for a wide and interested audience the main outlines of molecular and cellular SBT, based on fifteen years of experience in this field. Indeed, not only have some of the scientists who contributed to this report been active in carrying out research and developing methods and tools for SBT, but they have also organised international workshops aimed at bringing together world-class specialists in their own particular fields of molecular and cellular toxicology ; namely, First European Workshop in Molecular Toxicology, Sophia-Antipolis (France) 1996, Second European Workshop in Molecular Toxicology, Paris 1999) and published the proceedings of these workshops: Molecular Toxicology, 1997 (VSP publishing, Reiss, Parvez and Labbe editors), Molecular Responses to Xenobiotics, 2001 (Elsevier publishing, Parvez, Reiss and Labbe editors) and Special Issue of TOXICOLOGY 153 (2000, nos 1-3, guest editors Parvez and Reiss).
Toxicity responses can be acute and systemic; they can also be delayed, either because of an accumulation of minor damages, which manage finally to overcome cellular defence and repair mechanisms (a major cause of liver and kidney diseases) or because the development of the disease takes a long time following its induction. A typical example of this delay is cancer, as it takes on average five to ten years between the onset of the proliferation of a cell and the diagnosis of the resulting tumour. Neurodegenerative conditions follow a similar time-course. Hence the necessity to assess both the short- and long-term toxic responses.
Cellular studies are ideally suited to this end. They are best performed on primary cultures, but established cell lines allow for easy preliminary investigations. An interesting complement to the methods described below is the in silico evaluation of the toxic effects of a molecule, derived from its chemical structure (structure-activity relationship), which is increasingly reliable in forecasting the adverse biological activities of the molecule even before it has been synthesised.
4.1 Molecular and cell toxicology.
4.1.1 Metabolisation of the xenobiotic (substances of non-biological origin). In order to enter the cell, the xenobiotic has to cross lipid (fatty) or aqueous barriers and may need to be metabolised to that end. This can be done by activating the expression (forcing out) of various cellular genes, which may involve specific metabolising enzymes ; mono oxygenases, including members of the P450 family, Acetyltransferases, Epoxide Hydrolases, Glutathio-S-Transferases, Methyltransferases, Sulfotransferases, UDP-glycosyltransferases etc; nuclear transcription factors (like the PRX receptor activated by a majority of drugs and involved in many adverse drug effects); xenobiotic transporters (metallothioneines, P-glycoprotein family) etc. The resulting metabolites need to be carefully identified, since some happen to be highly toxic, even though the unmetabolised xenobiotic is not. Since primary targets of xenobiotics are the liver and the kidney, cells from these organs should be tested first. Methods: in vitro testing of the enzymatic activity of the involved genes; DNA chips (kits commercially available), which allow the monitoring of the expression of many of these genes; identification of metabolites by mass spectrometry; etc.
4.1.2 Intracellular toxicity assessment. Once the xenobiotic or its metabolite has entered the cell, the effect on the latter and its fate must be monitored. In response to even mild aggression, the cell will mobilise a series of genes, either to protect itself or to have the damage repaired.
Many members of the families of genes involved (stress genes and various repair enzyme genes) are known and can be recruited as 'reporters', which provide information on the target of the xenobiotic, the extent of the damage and the ability of the cell to overcome the damage. Reporters allow also to monitor the fate of the cell, exposed to various doses of the product, telling us about its ability to survive and how it will cope with the product in the long run. At present, reporter gene-loaded cells are commercially available, allowing the fast and inexpensive tracing of xenobiotics responsible for stress (including oxidative stress), various kinds of DNA damage, membrane damage etc.
The disadvantage with reporters is the necessity of guessing the gene(s) targeted by the xenobiotic. This problem is overcome with commercially available DNA chips, carrying hundreds or thousands of gene elements known to be involved in toxic response (Toxicogenomics). By standard biochemical manipulations, the expression of each of these genes can be individually visualised on the chip. DNA chips allow observation of the simultaneous transcription behaviour in the cell's nucleus of all genes present on the chip, whether the genes are stimulated, repressed or unaffected by the xenobiotic.
DNA chips are presently the ultimate tools for monitoring the first part, the transcription of gene expression. In order to have a full view of the effect of xenobiotic activity on gene expression, the second part of expression, translation, during which the gene product is actually synthesised, must also be monitored. This can be done with the tools of Toxicoproteomics (2D gel or capillary electrophoresis, protein chips, mass spectroscopy, and many new methods under rapid development). Toxicoproteomics account for the xenobiotic-induced protein modifications (chemical or structural), modifications of proteolytic processes, aggregation etc, which have been identified recently as representing important stages in many severe diseases (neurodegenerative disorders, dementia, diabetes type 2 etc).
Genotoxic activities of xenobiotics need to be identified and monitored with particular attention, since the failure to assess their effects accurately is the main factor responsible for the steep rise in cancer incidence observed over the past 50 years. These effects and activities can lead to DNA mutations, which can be monitored by a wealth of techniques (directly on DNA: precisely (sequencing) or roughly ('Comet' test); or indirectly, by monitoring the expression of DNA repair genes). Tumorigenesis is promoted by mutation or inactivation of genes involved in the regulation of cell growth and division. This leads to deregulation of pathways in charge of controlling programmed cell death, response to growth factors, cell migration etc. DNA chips are available which allow characterisation of the transcription status of several hundreds of the genes involved in tumorigenesis when the cell is exposed to some xenobiotic.
Carcinogenic events can also be induced by non-genotoxic mechanisms, occurring at various steps (check points) of the cell cycle (division) or at the level of the higher organisation of the genetic material (chromatin). Of particular interest are the so-called tumour suppressors, as, for instance, the much-celebrated protein p53, one of the 'guardians of the genome'. This protein has control over the integrity of the genetic material of the cell. If some mutagenic event has occurred, p53 will immediately interrupt the cell cycle until the damage has been repaired. If the repair has not been achieved within a few hours, p53 will force the cell into apoptosis (suicide), thereby preventing transmission of the damage to the cell's progeny. Xenobiotics targeting p53 (or other tumour suppressors), either by mutating its gene or by modifying its structure, will abolish the 'guardian' activity of the protein, so that mutations can carry over to the cell's progeny and eventually induce uncontrolled cell proliferation ; over half of solid tumours carry inactive forms of p53. Many commercial kits are available for monitoring the state of tumour suppressors and checkpoint gene expression, at the transcription or the protein level, especially for cancers thought to depend on hormones (breast cancer and oestrogen receptor signalling, prostate cancer and androgen signalling). DNA chips are also available for monitoring the expression, in the presence of a xenobiotic, of hundreds of human genes involved in the major steps of tumorigenesis, from deregulation of pathways in cell growth and division, DNA damage response, genome stability and repair, to cell adhesion, invasion, metastasis, angiogenesis etc.
Cytotoxic xenobiotics target the cell's organisation, its equipment, its metabolism etc. This toxicity is often signalled by intense expression of stress genes (in particular oxidative stress see 'reporter' gene section above). Cells initially respond by producing 'chaperones' and other enzymes to protect themselves from the xenobiotic's action. The severity and length of the exposure can elicit more global cellular responses, such as growth arrest, senescence, necrosis, cell death by apoptosis and even cell proliferation and carcinogenesis. The targets of cytotoxicity are the various cellular compartments and components, in particular mitochondria , the energy-factory of the cell which can trigger apoptosis. For instance, xenobiotics can trigger the apoptosis pathway involving the Bcl2 gene family. The corresponding proteins oligomerise and insert themselves into the mitochondrial membrane, inducing the release of its content (including the CARD family), some of which trigger cell death. Cytotoxicity can be established by monitoring the expression of a long list of housekeeping genes and genes involved in necrosis, apoptosis, growth arrest, senescence etc.
The methods mentioned so far can be applied to any type of cell, but those from organs most exposed to xenobiotics (liver, kidney, skin) should be assessed first.
Specific methods exist for the molecular assessment of a variety of xenobiotics which target particular biological functions. Here is a short list:
Reproductive toxicity can be monitored at the cell level, by, for instance, studying the activation by a xenobiotic of hormone receptors present at the surface of specific cells. As an example, 'endocrine proliferators' can mimic natural hormones and unduly induce the hormone-specific signal, or they can saturate specific hormone receptors and thereby preclude access to the normal hormone and delivery of its signal. Xenobiotics, including a large class of pesticides, which can induce abnormalities in male reproductive organs or promote tumours in tissues and organs which are under hormonal control (breast, ovary, prostate), can be identified in cultures of cells taken from these organs and tissues.
Developmental toxicity (including teratogenesis) linked to xenobiotics targeting the cell cycle, growth factors or cell components involved in development signalisation (classes of RNAs, chromatin components, etc.), can be assessed by monitoring the interaction of the xenobiotic with these molecular components of the cell. DNA chips are available for monitoring the action of xenobiotics on many human genes involved in the regulation of the cycle phases (cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases and their regulators: inhibitors, phosphatases and kinases).
Neurotoxicity can be the consequence of the action of a xenobiotic on molecules involved in neuronal communication ; a majority of insecticides target these molecules! Several standard methods make it possible to assess this class of neurotoxicity on neuronal cells in culture. Electrochemical signals sent down the length of a neuron, or from one neuron to another, are mediated by three classes of ion-specific channels (passive channels, which maintain resting membrane potential; chemically gated channels which recognise neurotransmitters and initiate an action potential, which is then propagated by voltage-gated channel); and by two broad classes of neurotransmitters (those acting directly on chemically gated ion channels and causing them to open, and those acting indirectly and more slowly, involving G-protein coupled receptors and the production of secondary messengers). DNA chips carrying genes of ion channels and neurotransmitter transporters (including neurotrophins, which are thought to play an important role in neuronal development) are available for monitoring the effect of a xenobiotic on these essential actors in neurobiology.
Neurotoxic agents can also target neuronal cells by affecting their capacity to synthesise proteins in their native conformation. Misconformed proteins tend to accumulate in or around the cell, to aggregate and form fibres, plaques or tangles which force the cell to commit apoptosis (due to intracellular accumulation of misfolded proteins) or impair cell-to-cell communication (extracellular deposit of proteinaceous aggregates). Parkinsonism (apoptosis of dopaminergic cells), Alzheimer's disease (amyloid plaque and tau fibre deposits), Creuzfeld-Jacob disease (prion deposit) and more than twenty other forms of dementia belonging to the family of "conformational diseases" can result from the production of misconformed proteins by the cellular protein synthesis apparatus (see below). Xenobiotics can target this equipment, either directly (production of stress which excessively mobilises and secludes stress proteins, like chaperones involved in protein folding) or indirectly (unscheduled production of large quantities of proteins, or cell proliferation, which depletes the cell's resources for protein synthesis and thereby favours protein misfolding). Testing xenobiotics for their capacity to induce protein misfolding, which is straightforward using reporter genes, is an urgent necessity, considering the significant number of elderly patients, and more recently even people below forty years of age, suffering from debilitating conformational diseases.
Immunotoxicity: inflammatory response. Inflammation is both the normal response of the body to pathogenes and a key intermediate of disease states such as allergies, asthma and arthritis which can be induced by xenobiotics. The signalling cascade of inflammatory response is propagated by the secretion of small glycoproteins (cytokines) and their binding on receptors of target cells. DNA chips bearing tens of human cytokine genes involved in the inflammatory response, and of the genes of their receptors, are available, allowing simultaneous determination of their expression profiles in cells exposed to some immunitoxic xenobiotic.
Molecular methods exist to assess membrane toxicity (modification of polarity, size and structure of lipid rafts, etc) and epigenetic toxicity (xenobiotic-producing DNA methylation, acylation or phosphorylation of chromatin, which can seriously affect the programme of gene expression) etc. Because of the polymorphism of the human population, assessment of cellular toxicity for classes of the population sharing common polymorphic patterns could be made, using class-specific DNA chips, which would, for instance, allow one to list xenobiotics which are especially harmful, or conversely safe, for members of the class (polymorphism-specific and idiosyncratic toxicology). For example, an extensive human polymorphism is found in the P450 family of metabolising enzymes.
4.1.3 Signal transduction and intercellular toxicity target cell-to-cell and cell-extracellular matrix (gap junction) interactions, endocrine or exocrine processes etc. Many cell types receive external signals (from hormones) which they transduce (translate) by some mechanism (signal-transduction pathway) into changing their behaviour or characteristics. G-protein coupled receptors, for instance, form a large family of cell-surface receptors involved in signal transduction. They are activated by a large variety of ligands, including chemicals and most drugs. Chemical stress can activate signal transduction via the NFkB transcription factor, released by the phosphorylation of the inhibitory IkB family of proteins or the Rel subunits. Once NFkB translocates in the nucleus, it induces transcription and expression of many genes such as those encoding cytokins, adhesion molecules, inhibitors of apoptosis etc. MAP kinase signalling operates through a cascade of kinases which also activate transcription factors of a variety of genes. Signalling by the TGFb super-family causes growth inhibition. Again, DNA chips carrying hundreds of human genes involved in signal transduction can monitor the action of xenobiotics on these genes.
The fate of the extracellular matrix (the substratum to which cells attach via adhesion molecules on the cell surface to help define tissue shape, structure and function), when exposed to a xenobiotic, can be monitored via the expression profile of molecules involved in cell-to-cell and cell-tissue interaction, such as cell-adhesion molecules (integrins, cadherins, catenins, selectins), extracellular matrix proteins (lamins, fibronectin, fibrinogen), protease (matrix metalloproteinases, serine and cystein protinases, cathepsin) and protease inhibitors (maspin). DNA arrays are available for monitoring the expression of hundreds of the genes involved, providing valuable information on the effect of a xenobiotic on primary steps in tissue and organ development.
In summary, using techniques based on molecular toxicity, we can obtain a clear view of the mechanism through which the substance or product is harmful, at what doses the cell can resist and, most importantly, the long-term effect on the cell. The experiment takes a few days on average, can be performed in large parallel screening set-ups (various cell types or doses, for instance), is relatively inexpensive, easy to standardise and requires tiny amounts of the xenobiotic (important in drug testing). The results are quantitative (large range of linear dose-response), reproducible and, most significantly, are valid for the species which provided the cells. These points represent definite scientific and economic advantages, even though advanced technical skills are required for most of these methods.
4.2 Scientific assessment of organ, tissue and systemic toxicity
We estimate that the assessment of the toxic risk by molecular and cellular approaches can be extended with some 90% reliability to the organ, tissue and systemic level. Nevertheless, this uncertainty must be further reduced, especially for prescription drugs and products to which consumers are exposed for long periods of time or at high doses (drugs, food additives, pesticides). In special cases, the product can be tested in perfused (permeated) tissues or in organ slices, which allow monitoring of the response of the cells integrated in their normal environment. Owing to supply problems and rapid degradation of the slices, these tests are difficult to carry out routinely. It is much easier to rely on non-invasive methods, which allow the monitoring of human volunteers, under strict clinical test conditions (with informed consent), for the effect of the xenobiotic on the tissue or functioning organ in situ. Of particular value are imaging techniques (MRI, PET scan, etc), which allow one to identify the organ targeted by the xenobiotic, the metabolism and elimination of the latter. Valuable complementary information on the functioning of particular organs can be obtained by standard biochemical and biomedical tests.
5) Merits of SBT (science-based toxicology) over traditional (animal-based research) toxicity assessment
As shown above, the biological reactions of individuals of a given species are unique. Individuals from different species may occasionally display similar gross responses when exposed to the same toxic product, but one should never be misled by these chance phenomena. First and foremost, the mechanism through which a product induces some pathological reaction can be quite different in different species. Of the drugs in use, 60% are metabolised in humans by the same member of the P450 family (which can lead to synergistic drug activation), but several different members of the P450 family are involved in the case of apes, dogs and rodents. Secondly, long-term effects in humans are impossible to assess in species with a shorter life expectancy. In mice, spontaneous cancer development commences at the age of ten months, whereas in humans it usually starts after the age of forty, and the mechanisms of cancer promotion are known to be very different in each species. The strain-to-strain susceptibility for cancer in mice can vary a hundredfold, certain strains tolerating, with no apparent ill-effects, oestrogen doses that are many times higher than for other strains. Even if the gross response in two different species looks alike in the short term, the underlying mechanism which determines the long-term outcome is very likely different and can therefore lead to vastly different outcomes over the years. Incidentally, it would naturally be useless to perform SBT for a given species on cells or cell cultures belonging to a different species
6) Benefits of SBT for interested parties
The most obvious benefit would be consumer safety. SBT allows one to understand the mechanism by which a substance produces its adverse effects, which then allows one to forecast its long-term effects. By identifying cancer-promoting products, cancer prevention would be significantly boosted. As a result of science-based assessment of carcinogenic substances, we can estimate that cancer morbidity figures could be halved within the next three to five years. The reliable assessment of drug toxicity could save tens of thousands of lives a year. Neurotoxic substances (80% of insecticides are neurotoxic to insects: what about humans?) could be identified and removed from the market, preventing damage to the neuronal development of children ; according to the FDA, this could be the case with the insecticide rotenone. Detection and removal of endocrine proliferators would prevent both abnormal development of sex organs and of most hormone-dependent cancers (breast, ovary, prostate).
Improved consumer safety would result in the immediate alleviation of socio-economic costs resulting from diseases, rates for which are presently soaring in EU countries.
The benefits of SBT assessments for industry are many. SBT experiments (as mentioned above) take a few days on average, can be performed in large parallel screening set-ups (with various cell types or doses, for instance), are relatively inexpensive, easy to standardise and require tiny amounts of the xenobiotic (important in drug testing). The results are quantitative (large range of linear dose-response), reproducible and, most importantly, are reliable and valid for the species under investigation. Furthermore, understanding the mechanism of the adverse effect may allow in-house chemists to modify the xenobiotic and remove, or alleviate, its toxicity (with the help of Structure-Activity-Relationship models, for example) and improve the quality of the product and the image of the manufacturer! Since SBT tests are easily standardised and are independent of subjective parameters, the tests remain valid across political borders, which allows for unrestricted circulation of the SBT-tested goods among EU countries and abroad. These are definite scientific and economic advantages.
Whilst it is true that advanced technical skill is required for most of the SBT methods, and the requisite laboratory equipment is expensive, this would be more than counterbalanced by the relatively speedy scientific, economic and greatly improved public-health advantages.
SBT procedures also apply to other species and can therefore be used to assess environmental toxicities in any animal or plant species.
Since SBT procedures necessarily avoid 'model' species, they would also satisfy animal-welfare organizations.
Finally, implementing SBT methods would improve the image of the EU, both inside the EU countries (consumers would be grateful for better protection of their health) and outside the EU, as the Union could lead the way to effective improvement of environmental health issues worldwide.
7) How to proceed in view of the rapid and practical implementation of SBT in the EU
A strategy for the EU to hasten the introduction of SBT methods could be based on the following steps:
1. Elaborate a detailed SBT programme. To this end, create and fund a board of specialists. (Our organisations are ready to contribute their experience to this end.)
2. Fund and set up a European SBT pilot laboratory (eg, at the Joint Research Centre).
3. Fund and train SB Toxicologists. Organize a 6-8 month training course in the pilot laboratory for graduate or postgraduate fellows from all EU countries, with conferences and courses given by leading specialists in the field.
4. Encourage all EU countries to set up SBT pilot laboratories for the training, led by professional SB toxicologists, of more locally centred SB toxicologists.
5. Support industrial initiatives aimed at conversion to SBT methods.
6. Issue directives stating that all new products put on the market must have been tested as safe by SBT methods, namely, at the molecular and cellular level for products to which exposure is limited, and, in addition, at the tissue, organ (especially liver and kidney) and systemic levels for products to which exposure is significant (prescription drugs, food additives, pesticides etc). Products already on the market should be tested by SBT methods within three to five years, and those failing to pass the test should be withdrawn (perhaps with support for the development of safe equivalents).

The process of defining life invokes various metaphysical and epistemic views. What are the objects, the processes and the phenomena that "life" refers to? What are the common features of these, and the special characteristics, which differentiate the animate from the inanimate? The course discusses the definitions suggested by notable biologists and philosophers -from Aristotle to Maynard Smith - examines their ontological and epistemological dimensions, and tries to unravel their implicit suppositions. Finally, the most common definitions of life at present - those based on heredity and on metabolism - are presented and analyzed. The course examines whether the definition of life is essential and whether it is possible. The issues of artificial life and the origin of life are also touched upon in this course.

27.V2005. What I sent to BBC: Respect,
It is my understanding that BBC heads want to suck 20% of the workers as there is money deficit. I have an idea which you may like to consider.
There are plenty people in the world that have TV channels provided by a cable company. In France we have Noos company where we could pay specially for some programmas if we wanna get them.
If you offer BBC 1-5 TV channels for couple of euros/month to cable companies they would put it in the offer and you could benefit. Although British international community may not be so large, there are other English and English-feel people who would be delighted to be able to obtain your great 5 channels abroad.
Please consider changing and expanding your policy in this international direction. All of us could benefit from it.
I do understand that BBCWorld and BBCPrime are already offered to worldwide audience, but their content cannot cover everything BBC produce and it is (must criticize you here) terribly sad that BBCPrime is often 1-2 years behind BBC from UK and BBCPrime repeat the same serials way too often (Bodges and Rogers, M.Parkinson, Hapiness, comedy programs are all repeated, MasterMind 1 year late...).
Peace and respect,

Interested in magic mushrooms? http://www.seethru.co.uk/zine/guides/amsterdam/smart_shops.htm /Me: it would be great that life is so unstressed that we feel naturally like on one mushroom from the packet of few they give us in smart shops for one trip, that feel is only posible to get if personbelieves in life with money system on equal basis for all countries, then we would feel as if we see things more colourful and hear sounds more near/. Also, I believe that the dejstvo comes from the alkaloid in mushroom so its not appropriate for general usage. New Scientist and Scientific American I believe its called second journal have said it is researched as a pain reliever for cancer and neuropathy diagnosis so let it be researched, together with 2 to 3 micrograms doses of LSD alone is a good pain reliever on three days time, but acute, not chronicly to be taken...

23.VI2005. from SFI, "Between the Lines "
From the Bicom site you can access the following news item
ANGUISH OF THE SUICIDE BOMBER WHOSE BOMB DIDN'T GO OFF
By Mark Ellis Foreign Editor
A SUICIDE bomber gasps in disappointment as 20lbs of explosive stashed in her pants fails to detonate.
Then in bewilderment she raises her head to heaven.
These unique CCTV pictures were taken at the Erez crossing between Gaza and Israel as Palestinian Wafa al-Biss made her martyrdom bid after being told to strip by border guards.
She was being allowed into Israel for treatment after being scarred in a cooking explosion. Afterwards Israeli officials let her give a TV interview to highlight the continuing terror threat despite a ceasefire.
Al-Biss, 21, said she had longed to be a suicide bomber since childhood, crying: "I believe in death." She then shakily blurted out: "I didn't kill anyone, will they forgive me?"
/Me: I must here say that I am more for giving to those people that grow in suicide rich communities all the thrills of extreme sports and install all possible extreme sports that could thrive there, like parachutism, waterflying and surfing, and so on... Hopefully the person can expect the same thrill in preparation for the sport as in the sport itself and what is even better, it can repeat it if it survives! Better than games on comp for sure. Hope that the girl is feeling better about her doings and whereabouts now/.

23.VI2005. Cholesterol, ageing, heart disease : http://www.mercola.com/2001/jul/14/insulin.htm a quote: a quote... very important.
But if we know that vitamin C and glucose have similar chemical structure, what happens when sugar levels go up? They compete for one another upon entering the cells. And the thing that mediates the entry of vitamin C into the cells is the same thing that mediates the entry of glucose into the cells. If there is more glucose around then less vitamin C will be allowed into the cell, and it doesn't take much glucose to have this effect. A blood sugar value of 120 reduces the phagocytic index 75 percent.
/Me: Almonds and sesame do not have vitamin C in its structure at all, but they do have a weak glycaemic index value. Quorn also, I believe, do not have vitamin C as do the chick peas, please check it out, I have looked only into nuts. Very interesting, but there is a reaction /during anal sex/, when put on sesame seed oil, either no reaction at all for healthy people, or itching if there is a high sugar, check it out, please, but reaction I am interested in especially as we use cellulose rich paper for toalet cleansing. A hint: E.Coli lives near the beginning of the anal hole and its food is sugar but which one, glucose or sacharose?.../.
24.VI2005. Theology: of thelema
Please read, indeed I do agree with most of things except for putting the
main concepts of Winged Serpent to be Hadit and Horus as hawk headed
deity. I would put those main deities to be human-like, or allegoricaly
like some other indeed holy concepts, as both serpent and hawk are rodent
eaters and they are not able to control such hunger until, one day, we,
humans do not teach them otherwise (in beggining giving them veggy food
and afterwards bring them to evolve into herbivores).
But most of the other theology concepts are quite good.

23.VI2005. Diseases are a result of a lack of communication. There are certain things that your cells need to be healthy. If you learn nothing else today, you should know that everything is at the cellular and molecular level and we are nothing but a community of cells. We are a commune of cells; a metropolis of cells that have been given instructions to cooperate. Dr.Mercola

24.VI2005. Animal sacrifice in different religions: quote: Do your rituals involve animal sacrifice?
None of the initiation rituals of O.T.O. or ecclesiastical rituals of E.G.C. involve animal sacrifice in any way. No O.T.O. member is ever required by O.T.O. to perform or participate in animal sacrifice. However, O.T.O. takes no moral or religious stand against the practice of animal sacrifice, per se. Animal sacrifice is an ancient and legitimate religious tradition that has historically been practiced by many established religious systems, including Classical Paganism, Judaism, Islam, and many African and Afro-Caribbean religions. http://www.oto-usa.org/faq.html /Me: How to persuade all those people not to sacrifice animals I just wander? It is a sorrow invoked afterwards, not joy, its not possible that someone can enjoy meal afterwards/.
24.VI2005. A letter to a friend in Israel with heart clogging history: This article (attention, has 4 pages, on the end of each one you go on
next one) is very worth reading. Please, read it when you have time,
patience and concentration. The main point is that high insulin levels
actually are main reasons for heart disease. I have heard it before, and
the link between arteries clothing and high insulin is quite
straightforward.
Apart from few supplements he is suggesting, the main thing would be to
avoid animal-derived food and to have high /unsaturated from animals/ fat diet,
consisting mainly from huge amounts of all types of nuts (be careful as
some of them are ultra salted, try to find unsalted ones), olive oil and
olives (also take care about salt), and pumpkin, sunflower and all other
seeds.
You should seriously aim to exclude any added sugar (saccharose, sucrose,
glucose, dextrose) in you diet as well as to diminish grains like potatoe,
wheat-productsm, rice is not so bad but not refined...
To literally live from huge vegetable salads with lots of nuts and seeds
and you could use organic eggs (but from two eggs you use just one yolk
and two whites kind of idea).
You also have there in Israel great vegetarien viennen schnicle and other
veggy steaks and, of course chick peas products and beans would cover you
cravings for meat products.
Avoid also juses and prefer still water.
You may want to give blood with your cholesterol, tryglicerides,
glycaemia, hba1c, thyroid, electrolytes and calcium and renal functions

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/4618749.stm /Me: pharmaceutical industries often find some requizite necessary for their pill still to be produced just from them, not to have patent available to other pharmaceutical firms who then produce the same pill for smaller price. The price should be always equal; that is first, especially to be given credit to people who formed the medicament. But to keep patent of medicament just for self is not good as they are /pharmacists/ in serve to humanity I believe/.

Conformal Field Theory, which has potential applications on the critical behaviour of systems at critical point where continuous phase transformation occurs. Approaching critical point, degrees of freedom of system are strongly correlated which would appear very hard to pursue theoretical analysis. Luckily, some symmetry can simplify the problem, for example, rotation symmetry reduce the Schordinger equation of Hydrogen atom to ordinary differential equation. A similar symmetry exists in critical phenomena in 2 dimention: it is called Conformal Symmetry.

I think you should cut it off. Please.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/4683371.stm
ps, will find those articles about aspartame toxicity. parkinson and alzheimer disease patients have more aspartame than people. aspartame is made in brain as a toxic by-product when brain works too much (like lactic acid which is made in you muscles if you overdo exercise). When aspartame is ingested through stomack it messes up with your digestive system, bloodstream and does nerve poisoning - its not good and makes more diseases than those they mentioned. DD. Rumsfeld owned aspartame company up till few years ago (!) and sold it to Monsanto (worst geneticly modified products making company).
Even though sugar is bad as well as it rises your insulin levels and brings accelerated ageing, oxidative stress and cardiovascular and nerve degenerative diseases, in this case I believe it is lesser evil than aspartame.

27.VII2005. Viruses, bacteriophages, antibiotics: /Me: from OUSA environment forum/: Oh, they definitely are. Of particular benefit are the bacteriophages, which kill bacteria. Each one is specific to a particular bacterial strain. In Georgia in the former USSR they have been using phage for many years instead of synthetic antibiotics. One big advantage is that viruses evolve very rapidly, so as soon as bacteria evolve to be more infectious or more harmful, a phage virus evolves which can destroy it. Phage is at long last being considered in the UK as a possible solution to antibiotic resistance.
Now there's a good idea. I remember a lecturer many years ago going on at great length about how phages would be the new magic bullet and so on. Thirty years later it might finally get off the ground.

27.VII2005. Paper and phages /from OUSA forum/: I have also read that recycling actually uses less energy and water than making paper from scratch. Better is that recycling plants use oxygen bleaching than chlorine bleaching agents. But does it use more energy than driving heavy vehicles to plantations, cutting down trees, cutting up trees, pulping trees and transporting that? If you don't cart used paper to the recycling plant, what do you do with it? Bury it, compost it, anaerobically digest it or incinerate it. All those also require transportation, although in the latter two cases this will be offset by the energy produced.

I. The disease has strong HLA associations, with linkage to the DQA and B genes, and it is influenced by the DRB genes These HLA-DR/DQ alleles can be either predisposing or protective. DR3 and DR4 increase the incidence, DR2, decreases the incidence
II. Most type 1 diabetes is characterized by the presence of islet cell, GAD, IA-2, IA-2ß, or insulin autoantibodies that identify the autoimmune process that leads to ß-cell destruction
III. Markers of the immune destruction of the ß-cell include islet cell
autoantibodies (ICAs), autoantibodies to insulin (IAAs),
autoantibodies to glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD65), and
autoantibodies to the tyrosine phosphatases IA-2 and IA-2ß
