Authors: Netvichit, Siriluk; Pilakasiri, Kajee; Charernwat, Boonsong Abstract: A rare cleidocranial dysplasia or Marie-Santon syndrome1 was seen in a man who devoted his body for anatomical study of medical students in faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital. It was shown that there were typical bony anomalies of this disease in his body. According to his family history, he was diagnosed as cleidocranial dysplasia. Until now he had transferred these characteristics to his two next generations; two sons, one daughter and one nephew. This disorder might have a strong genetic inheritance.

Methods: Cardio-respiratory fitness, muscular strength, flexibility and body composition were measured in 208 ATTM students from years 1 to 4 in the academic year 2010. To determine their lifestyles, questionnaires were also answered by ATTM students. Results: Firstly, although cardio-respiratory fitness of female ATTM students was within normal limit of Thai, cardio-respiratory fitness of male ATTM students was lower than that of Thai. Secondly, muscular strength of both male and female ATTM students was lower than those of Thai. Thirdly, flexibility of ATTM students was comparable to that of Thai. Fourthly, although BMI of ATTM students was comparable to that of Thai, the average waist to hip circumference ratio of female ATTM students was higher than that of female Thai. Finally, eighty four percent of ATTM students exercised less than three times a week and fifty percent of ATTM students ate less than three meals per day, respectively. Conclusion: ATTM students need not only the training programs for cardio-respiratory fitness, and muscular strength but also need a breakfast campaign. Persuading them to pay more attention to their physical exercises and appropriate diets will eventually create the healthy ATTM practitioners in the future.

Authors: Wongwiwat, Wiyada; Niyomchan, Apichaya; Yenchitsomaus, Pa-thai; Sricharoenvej, Sirinush; Limjindaporn, Thawornchai Abstract: Objective: To test whether depleted expression of immunoglobulin heavy chain binding protein (BiP), which is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone, in dengue virus (DENV)-infected cells, affected integrities of the ER and the Golgi apparatus of the host cells. Methods: Either siRNA against BiP- or control siRNA-transfected cells was infected with DENV and subjected to electron microscopic evaluation. Results: Depleted expression of BiP affected integrities of the ER and the Golgi apparatus in DENV-infected cells. Conclusion: Integrities of the ER and the Golgi apparatus maintained by BiP in the host cells is necessary for DENV production.
