Résumé : International audience
The aim of the study was to determine the factors associated with resting and exercise-induced hemoglobin oxygen desaturation. The well-established six-minute walk test was conducted in 107 sickle cell children (50 with sickle hemoglobin C disease and 57 with sickle cell anemia) at steady state. Hemoglobin oxygen saturation was measured before and immediately after the six-minute walk test. Blood samples were obtained on the same day to measure hematologic and hemorheological parameters. Exercise-induced hemoglobin oxygen desaturation was defined as a drop in hemoglobin oxygen saturation of 3% or more at the end of the six-minute walk test compared to resting levels. No children with sickle hemoglobin C disease, but approximately 50% of children with sickle cell anemia showed mild or moderate oxygen desaturation at rest, which was independently associated with the percentage of reticulocytes. Exercise-induced hemoglobin oxygen desaturation was observed in 18% of children with sickle hemoglobin C disease and 34% of children with sickle cell anemia, and was independently associated with the six-minute walk test, acute chest syndrome rate and the strength of red blood cell aggregates in children with sickle cell anemia. No association was found in children with sickle hemoglobin C disease between exercise-induced hemoglobin oxygen desaturation and the measured parameters. Hemoglobin oxygen desaturation at rest was common in children with sickle cell anemia but not in children with sickle hemoglobin C disease, and was mainly associated with greater hemolysis. Physiological strain during exercise and red blood cell aggregation properties may predict the occurrence of exercise-induced hemoglobin oxygen desaturation in children with sickle cell anemia.

The SMOS Mission: New Tool for Monitoring Key Elements of the Global Water Cycle
Auteur(s) : Kerr, Yann H. Waldteufel, Philippe Wigneron, Jean-pierre Delwart, Steven Cabot, Francois Boutin, Jacqueline Escorihuela, Maria-jose Font, Jordi

Résumé : It is now well understood that data on soil moisture and sea surface salinity (SSS) are required to improve meteorological and climate predictions. These two quantities are not yet available globally or with adequate temporal or spatial sampling. It is recognized that a spaceborne L-band radiometer with a suitable antenna is the most promising way of fulfilling this gap. With these scientific objectives and technical solution at the heart of a proposed mission concept the European Space Agency (ESA) selected the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission as its second Earth Explorer Opportunity Mission. The development of the SMOS mission was led by ESA in collaboration with the Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales (CNES) in France and the Centro para el Desarrollo Tecnologico Industrial (CDTI) in Spain. SMOS carries a single payload, an L-Band 2-D interferometric radiometer operating in the 1400-1427-MHz protected band [1]. The instrument receives the radiation emitted from Earth's surface, which can then be related to the moisture content in the first few centimeters of soil over land, and to salinity in the surface waters of the oceans. SMOS will achieve an unprecedented maximum spatial resolution of 50 km at L-band over land (43 km on average over the field of view), providing multiangular dual polarized (or fully polarized) brightness temperatures over the globe. SMOS has a revisit time of less than 3 days so as to retrieve soil moisture and ocean salinity data, meeting the mission's science objectives. The caveat in relation to its sampling requirements is that SMOS will have a somewhat reduced sensitivity when compared to conventional radiometers. The SMOS satellite was launched successfully on November 2, 2009.

Identification de marqueurs génétiques de la virulence chez Vibrio nigripulchritudo, un pathogène de crevettes pénéides en Nouvelle-Calédonie
Auteur(s) : Reynaud, Yann

Éditeur(s) : Université de Paris 6 Pierre et Marie Curie
Résumé : Since 1997, a new pathology seasonally occurs in new caledonian shrimp farms during the warm season and was named Summer Syndrome. Diseased Litopenaeus stylirostris shrimp suffer from a septicemic vibriosis which was attributed to V. nigripulchritudo. Preliminary studies based on a collection of V. nigripulchritudo strains have brought to light different virulence levels according to experimental infections results; three virulence statuses were defined: highly (HP), moderately (MP) and non pathogenic (NP). The aim of this work was to genetically characterize virulent V. nigripulchritudo strains. In a first step the genetic diversity of 58 V. nigripulchritudo strains was analyzed by MLST and AP-PCR, revealing a cluster of HP and MP strains, characterized by a low genetic variability and that includes all Summer Syndrome-associated isolates. This confirms the emergence of one cluster of pathogenic V. nigripulchritudo simultaneously with the emergence of the Summer Syndrome ; in a second step, 368 genetic markers of virulence were identified by a Suppressive Subtractive Hybridization performed between the genomes of a HP strain and a genetically close, NP isolate; the distribution of the screened SSH fragments was studied in 58 V. nigripulchritudo isolates by macro-array: 78 DNA fragments were selected, allowing to characterize clusters identified and pathogenic statuses; 13 are specific of the HP strains involved in Summer Syndrome. Interestingly, 10 of these markers are carried by a plasmid pSFn1 that contains sequences highly similar to those of a plasmid pAK1, detected in Vibrio shilonii, a coral pathogen. The origin and consequences of this plasmid acquisition are discussed.
Depuis 1997, les élevages de crevettes en Nouvelle-Calédonie sont confrontés à une nouvelle maladie, le Syndrome d'été, une vibriose septicémique dont l'agent étiologique est Vibrio nigripulchritudo. Les résultats d'infection expérimentale sur une collection de souches, ont montré l'existence de trois pathotypes distincts : hautement (HP), moyennement (MP) et non pathogène (NP). L'étude du polymorphisme génétique de 58 souches par typage moléculaire en MLST et AP-PCR, a mis en évidence un groupe phylogénétique particulier caractérisé par un très faible degré de variabilité génétique (confirmant l'émergence de ce groupe en parallèle à l'émergence du Syndrome d'été) et constitué uniquement de souches HP (dont toutes celles associées au Syndromed'été) et de souches MP. Afin d'identifier des marqueurs génétiques de la virulence des souches responsables du Syndrome d'été, et parmi ces marqueurs des gènes codant potentiellement pour des effecteurs de la virulence, une approche soustractive par SSH a été développée entre une souche HP de type Syndrome d'été et une souche NP : 368 marqueurs génétiques ont ainsi été mis en évidence ; la distribution de ces marqueurs a été étudiée chez les 58 souches de la collection par une approche en macroarray : 78 marqueurs ont été sélectionnés, qui permettent de caractériser les différents groupes phylogénétiques et les différents pathotypes, dont 13 fragments spécifiques des souches HP type Syndrome d'été. Parmi ces 13 fragments, 10 ont été localisés sur le plasmide pSFn1 qui a été entièrement séquencé. Ce même plasmide a été purifié uniquement des souches HP de type Syndrome d'été. Par ailleurs, une très forte homologie a été mise en évidence entre pSFn1 et pAK1, un autre plasmide également séquencé et retrouvé chez la souche V. shilonii AK1, responsable du blanchiment du corail Oculina patagonica en Méditerranée. Ces résultats ont ouvert la discussion sur le rôle de pSFn1 dans la virulence de V. nigripulchritudo.
