ASB7 regulates spindle dynamics and genome integrity by targeting DDA3 for proteasomal degradation.

Proper dynamic regulation of the spindle is essential for successful cell division. However, the molecular mechanisms that regulate spindle dynamics in mitosis are not fully understood. In this study, we show that Cullin 5-interacting suppressor of cytokine signaling box protein ASB7 ubiquitinates DDA3, a regulator of spindle dynamics, thereby targeting it for proteasomal degradation.

Effects of halothane on coronary and systemic circulations, myocardial metabolism and blood flow distribution within the canine heart.

Myocardial metabolism, blood flow distribution within the heart, and coronary and systemic circulations were observed during halothane anesthesia using 15 mongrel dogs. Pao2 and Paco2 were maintained near 100 and 40 torr respectively throughout the study. As arterial halothane content increased, most parameters of systemic circulation were depressed significantly.
