Résumé : International audience
B-type olivine fabrics are pervasive within highly depleted dunites of the small-sized Imono peridotite body located within the subduction-type Sanbagawa metamorphic belt of the southwest Japan arc. The dunites contain various microstructures, ranging from porphyroclastic to fine-grained intensely sheared textures. The Mg/(Mg+Fe) atomic ratios (Fo number) of olivine within these dunites are consistently around 0.9, as are the Cr/(Cr+Al) atomic ratios (Cr number) of chromian spinel, suggesting their evolution from a highly depleted magma (boninite). These data provide strong thermal constraints on the formation of the highly depleted dunites,as their formation requires hot, hydrous, shallow mantle (> 1250 degrees C at < 30 km depth) in the mantle wedge. Because the Sanbagawa metamorphic belt finally entrained these peridotites during progressive retrogression, B-type olivine fabrics probably developed in the fore-arc side of the subduction zone, above or along the subducting slab, possibly in association with dehydration fluids derived from the slab. The previously documented small magnitude of S-wave splitting can be explained by the seismic properties of B-type peridotites within an anisotropic layer of approximately several kilometers in thickness, oriented by flow parallel to the subducting slab, under maximum temperatures of 880-1030 degrees C depending on the flow stress. These findings indicate that such a B-type layer could constitute a dominant source of seismic S- and P-wave anisotropy in mantle wedge regions. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Résumé : International audience
Peridotite xenoliths exhumed by Quaternary alkaline magmatism in the Tahalgha district, southern Hoggar, represent fragments of the subcontinental lithospheric mantle beneath the boundary between the two major structural domains of the Tuareg Shield: the ‘Polycyclic Central Hoggar’ to the east and the ‘Western Hoggar’, or ‘Pharusian Belt’, to the west. Samples were collected from volcanic centres located on both sides of a major lithospheric shear zone at 4°35' separating these two domains. Although showing substantial variations in their deformation microstructures, equilibrium temperatures and modal and chemical compositions, the studied samples do not display any systematic changes of these features across the 4°35' fault. The observed variations rather record small-scale heterogeneities distributed throughout the study area and reflecting the widespread occurrence of vein conduits and metasomatized wall-rocks related to trans-lithospheric melt circulation during the Cenozoic. These features include partial annealing of pre-existing deformation microstructures, post-deformation metasomatic reactions, and trace-element enrichment, coupled with heating from 750–900°C (low-temperature lherzolites) to 900–1150°C (intermediate-T lherzolites and high-T harzburgites and wehrlites). Trace-element modelling confirms that the range of rare earth element (REE) variations observed in the Tahalgha clinopyroxenes may be accounted for by reactive porous flow involving a single stage of basaltic melt infiltration into a light REE (LREE)-depleted protolith. Whole-rock compositions record the final entrapment of disequilibrium metasomatic melts upon thermal relaxation of the veins–wall-rock system. The striking correlations between equilibrium temperatures and trace-element enrichment favor a scenario in which the high-temperature peridotites record advective heat transport along melt conduits, whereas the intermediate- and low-temperature lherzolites reflect conductive heating of the host Mechanical Boundary Layer. This indicates that the lithosphere did not reach thermal equilibrium, suggesting that the inferred heating event was transient and was rapidly erased by thermal relaxation down to the relatively low-temperature present-day geotherm. The low-T (<900°C) deformed lherzolites (porphyroclastic to equigranular) are characterized by only incipient annealing and LREE-depleted clinopyroxene compositions. They were only weakly affected by the Cenozoic events and could represent relatively well-preserved samples from rejuvenated Pan-African lithosphere. Extensive lithospheric rejuvenation occurred either regionally during the Pan-African orogeny, as a result of lithospheric delamination or thermomechanical erosion after thickening, or more locally along the meridional shear zones. The low-T Tahalgha lherzolites are comparable with lherzolites from Etang de Lherz, southern France, interpreted as lithospheric mantle rejuvenated by melt-induced refertilization during a late stage of the Variscan orogeny.

Résumé : A new benthic phototrophic dinoflagellate is described from sediments of a tropical marine cove at Martinique Island and its micromorphology is studied by means of light and electron microscopy. The cell contains small golden-brown chloroplasts and the oval nucleus is posterior. It is laterally compressed, almost circular in shape when viewed laterally. It consists of a small epitheca tilted toward the right lateral side and a larger hypotheca. In the left view, the cingulum is more anterior and the epitheca is reduced. The cingulum is displaced and left-handed. This organism is peculiar in having no apical pore and its thecal plate arrangement is 2 ' 1a 7 '' 5c 3s 5 ''' 1 ''''. The plates are smooth with small groups of pores scattered on their surface. An area with 60-80 densely arranged pores is found near the centre of the 2 ''' plate, on the left lateral side. Morphologically, these features are different from all other laterally compressed benthic genera. In addition, molecular genetic sequences of SSU and partial LSU form a distinct and well-supported clade among dinoflagellates and support the erection of a new genus. However, molecular phylogenies inferred from ribosomal genes failed to confirm any clear relationship with other benthic taxa and affinity with other laterally compressed dinoflagellates has not been demonstrated. Hence, the taxonomic affinity of Madanidinium loirii with a defined order and family is unclear at the moment.

Résumé : On 1 August 1907, Leo started the Gottsegen Cigar Company, a cigar manufacturing business, with his partners Max Stark and Sam Lefkowitz and $5,700 to form a capital stock of $10,000. The business was located in the Lower East Side at 130 Maiden Avenue. I. In 1918, Leo moved the business to Tampa and the name was changed to the Gradiaz Annis and Company (note that "Gradiaz" is a Spanishization of "God's Blessing!). From that point onward, Leo was listed as the president of the company and Julien B. Annis was vice president, secretary and treasurer.

Résumé : Many questions remain unanswered regarding RNAi-based mechanisms and dsRNA-induced antiviral immune responses in penaeid shrimp. In this study, we report the characterization in the white leg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei of RNAi pathway associated proteins Lv-Ago 1 and Lv-Ago 2, two members of the Argonaute family of proteins, as well as Lv-sid 1, the first shrimp homologue of Sid-1, a membrane channel-forming protein implicated in the cellular import of dsRNA. To decipher their functional implication in RNAi-related phenomena, we monitored their relative expression following stimulation by specific and non-specific RNA duplexes of diverse length. The findings show that the length of small RNA duplexes plays a critical role in the activation of both RNAi-related and innate antiviral responses. They also suggest that these two mechanisms of antiviral response may activate the same pathway, requiring Lv-Sid 1 and Lv-Ago 2 induction. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Résumé : National audience
Introduction-objectifsBien que la prise en charge de personnes vivant avec le VIH (PVVIH) s’améliore globalement en Guyane, les disparités régionales et communautaires restent importantes. L’objectif est ici de décrire pour la première fois les caractéristiques épidémiologiques, spatiales et cliniques des PVVIH suivies en zones isolées. Matériels et MéthodesLes données présentées sont issues du suivi clinique réalisé en Centres Délocalisés de Prévention et de Soins (CDPS) de janvier 2014 à novembre 2015. Ces données ont été analysées et comparées aux données des PVVIH suivis dans les 3 centres hospitaliers de Guyane issues du logiciel Nadis®.Résultats 174 PVVIH ont étés pris en charge en CDPS et comparés à 2143 patients suivis sur le littoral. L’évolution du taux annuel de découvertes de séropositivité VIH montre une arrivée plus tardive mais particulièrement active en zones isolées par rapport au littoral, notamment chez les patients d’origine brésilienne (p<0,005). L’âge médian est de 43,8 ans, le sex ratio homme/femme est de 0,98. En zone isolées comme sur le littoral 1/3 des PVVIH sont dépistés tardivement (<200 CD4/mm3). Le succès virologiques après 6 mois de traitement est de 80% vs 88% sur le littoral (p=0,135), la moyenne des derniers CD4 (424 vs 569/mm3) est plus basse que sur le littoral (p<0,005) enfin la charge virale moyenne est plus élevée que sur le littoral (8960 vs 5317 copies /mL) (p<0,005). L’histoplasmose est la première cause d’infection opportuniste retrouvée. La répartition spatiale des patients suivis montre une incidence et prévalence de cas particulièrement élevée dans les villes frontalières charnières que constituent Maripasoula et Saint Georges de l’Oyapock. ConclusionLe caractère particulièrement actif et original de l’épidémie et les indicateurs de suivi moins bons que sur le littoral rappellent l’importance de compléter les moyens de la prise en charge des PVVIH en zones isolées en Guyane.

Résumé : International audience
We show here that the Amalaoulaou complex, in the Pan-African belt of West Africa (Gourma, Mali), corresponds to the lower and middle sections of a Neoproterozoic intra-oceanic arc. This complex records a 90-130-Ma-long evolution of magmatic inputs and differentiation above a subducting oceanic slab. Early c. 793 Ma-old metagabbros crystallised at lower crustal or uppermost mantle depths (25-30 km) and have geochemical characteristic of high-alumina basalts extracted from a depleted mantle source slightly enriched by slab-derived sedimentary components ((La/Sm)(N) < 1; epsilon(Nd): +5.4-6.2; Sr-87/Sr-86: 0.7027-0.7029). In response to crustal thickening, these mafic rocks were recrystallised into garnet-granulites (850-1,000A degrees C; 10-12 kbar) and subject to local dehydration-melting reactions, forming trondhjemititic leucosomes with garnet-clinopyroxene-rutile residues. Slightly after the granulitic event, the arc root was subject to strong HT shearing during partial exhumation (detachment faults/rifting or thrusting), coeval with the emplacement of spinel- and garnet-pyroxenite dykes crystallised from a high-Mg andesitic parental magma. Quartz and hornblende-gabbros (700-660 Ma) with composition typical of hydrous volcanic rocks from mature arcs ((La/Sm)(N): 0.9-1.8; epsilon(Nd): +4.6 to +5.2; Sr-87/Sr-86: 0.7028-0.7031) were subsequently emplaced at mid-arc crust levels (similar to 15 km). Trace element and isotopic data indicate that magmas tapped a depleted mantle source significantly more enriched in oceanic sedimentary components (0.2%). Exhumation occurred either in two stages (700-660 and 623 Ma) or in one stage (623 Ma) with a final exhumation of the arc root along cold P-T path (550A degrees C, 6-9 kbar; epidote-amphibolite and greenschist facies conditions) during the main Pan-African collision event (620-580 Ma). The composition of magmas forming the Cryogenian Amalaoulaou arc and the processes leading to intra-arc differentiation are strikingly comparable to those observed in the deep section of exposed Mezosoic oceanic arcs, namely the Kohistan and Talkeetna complex. This evolution of the Amalaoulaou oceanic arc and its accretion towards the West African craton belong to the life and closure of the Pharusian Ocean that eventually led to the formation of the Greater Gondwana supercontinent, a similar story having occurred on the other side of the Sahara with the Mozambique Ocean.

Résumé : The Rift Valley between 36° 42'N and 36° 55'N in the Atlantic Ocean is 31 km wide, with half-widths of 12 and 19 km for the western and eastern sides respectively. Both outer edges of the Rift Valley stand about 1500 m above an Inner Floor where very fresh pillow lavas occur. The Inner Floor probably includes the locus of new crust ; and its bordering slopes, which are particularly well-defined on the western side, limit to less than about 2.5 km the width of the zone over which new crust may have evolved with little or no vertical displacement. The width of the locus of new crust may be less than 0.5 km between 36° 45'N and 36° 47'N, where the deepest slopes of the Rift Valley walls nearly merge. Near 36° 50'N, the Inner Floor accommodates an approximately 1 km wide, 4 km long Central High, with a height of up to 250 m. In this area, the locus of new crust may also occupy a very narrow zone ; it may lie either along the Central High or along a trough flanking the Central High. The magnetic anomaly pattern indicates that, since the beginning of the Brunhes epoch (6.9 X 10(5) yr B.P.), the eastern limb has grown approximately twice as fast as the western limb. Using extrapolated spreading rates, the ages of the outer edges of the Rift Valley are 1.3 and 1.7 m.y. for the eastern and western sides respectively. Comparison with data for the Rift Valley in other parts of the ocean further suggests that the residence time of new crust in the Rift Valley is about 1.5 m.y. Uplift of crust from the Inner Floor, which may be dominated by lithospheric thickening, may thus be primarily a function of age. [NOT CONTROLLED OCR]

Résumé : International audience
The aim of this study was to determine factors associated with complete satisfaction with the care provided (satisfaction with physicians and satisfaction with services and organization) among HIV-infected patients followed up in the French ANRS CO8 APROCO-COPILOTE cohort. Analyses focused on cross-sectional data collected during the ninth year of cohort follow-up. Satisfaction with care, sociodemographic characteristics, and behavioral data were collected using self-administered questionnaires, while clinical data were derived from medical records. Complete satisfaction with care was defined as being 100% satisfied. Two logistic regression models were used to identify predictors of (1) complete satisfaction with physicians (n=404) and (2) complete satisfaction with services and organization (n=396). Sixteen percent of patients were completely satisfied with physicians, while 15.9% were completely satisfied with services and organization. Being older and reporting fewer discomforting antiretroviral therapy (ART) side effects were factors independently associated with complete satisfaction with both physicians and services and organization. Strong support from friends and absence of hepatitis C (HCV) co-infection were independently associated with complete satisfaction with physicians, while strong support from one's family and comfortable housing conditions were independently associated with complete satisfaction with services and organization. Even after nine years of follow-up, social vulnerabilities still strongly influence HIV-infected patients' interactions with the health care system. Day-to-day experience with the disease, including perceived treatment side effects, appears to play a key role in the quality of these interactions. More attention should be given to patient satisfaction, especially for socially vulnerable patients, in order to avoid potentially detrimental consequences such as poor adherence to ART.

Résumé : International audience
Serpentinites form by hydration of mantle peridotite and constitute the largest potential reservoir of fluid-mobile elements entering subduction zones. Isotope ratios of one such element, boron, distinguish fluid contributions from crustal versus serpentinite sources. Despite 85% of boron hosted within abyssal peridotite being lost at the onset of subduction at the lizardite-to-antigorite transition, a sufficient cargo of boron to account for the composition of island arc magma is retained (c. 7 μg g− 1, with a δ11B of + 22‰) until the down-going slab reaches the antigorite-out isograd. At this point a 11B-rich fluid, capable of providing the distinctive δ11B signature of island arc basalts, is released. Beyond the uniquely preserved antigorite-out isograd in serpentinites from Cerro del Almirez, Betic Cordillera, Spain, the prograde lithologies (antigorite–chlorite–orthopyroxene–olivine serpentinite, granofels-texture chlorite-harzburgite and spinifex-texture chlorite-harzburgite) have very different boron isotope signatures (δ11B = − 3 to + 6‰), but with no significant difference in boron concentration compared to the antigorite-serpentinite on the low P–T side of the isograd. 11B-rich fluid, which at least partly equilibrated with pelagic sediments, is implicated in the composition of these prograde lithologies, which dehydrated under open-system conditions. Serpentinite-hosted boron lost during the early stages of dehydration is readily incorporated into forearc peridotite. This, in turn, may be dragged to sub-arc depths as a result of subduction erosion and incorporated in a mélange comprising forearc serpentinite, altered oceanic crust and pelagic sediment. At the antigorite-out isograd it dehydrates, thus potentially providing an additional source of 11B-rich fluids.

Résumé : International audience
The Gulf of Cadiz spans the plate boundary between Africa and Eurasia west of the Betic–Rif mountain belt. A narrow east dipping subduction zone descends beneath the Gulf of Cadiz and the straits of Gibraltar. The deep crustal structure of the Gulf and the adjacent SW Iberian and Moroccan margins is constrained by numerous multi-channel seismic reflection and wide-angle seismic surveys. A compilation of these existing studies is presented in the form of depth to basement, sediment thickness, depth to Moho and crustal thickness maps. These structural maps image an E–W trending trough, with thin (< 10 km) crust beneath the Gulf of Cadiz. This trough is filled by an eastward thickening wedge of sediments, reaching a thickness of 10–15 km in the eastern Gulf. These sediments are tectonically deformed, primarily along a series of westward-vergent thrust faults and represent a 200–250 km wide accretionary wedge. The northern and especially the southern limits of the accretionary wedge are marked by sharp morphological lineaments showing evidence of recent deformation. These tectonic limits are situated in an internal position with respect to the Miocene deformation front (external Betic and Rif allocthons), which has been abandoned. At the western boundary of the accretionary wedge, near the adjacent Seine and Horseshoe abyssal plains, an E–W trending basement high (Coral Patch Ridge) can be seen indenting the deformation front in an asymmetric manner. Analog modeling is performed using granular materials accreted against a semicircular backstop (representing the basement of the Rif and Betic mountain belts). The modeling initially produces a symmetric, arcuate accretionary wedge. The ensuing collision of an oblique rigid indenter retards accretion on one side, resulting in an embayment and a locally steeper deformation front. The deformation pattern observed in morphology and high-resolution seismic profiles suggests the accretionary wedge and underlying subduction system is still active. The implications of active subduction for the source region of the 1755 Lisbon earthquake and the regional seismic hazard assessment are discussed.

Résumé : International audience
We carried out morphotectonic studies along the left-lateral strike-slip Bogd Fault, the principal structure involved in the Gobi-Altay earthquake of 1957 December 4 (published magnitudes range from 7.8 to 8.3). The Bogd Fault is 260 km long and can be subdivided into five main geometric segments, based on variation in strike direction. West to East these segments are, respectively: the West Ih Bogd (WIB), The North Ih Bogd (NIB), the West Ih Bogd (WIB), the West Baga Bogd (WBB) and the East Baga Bogd (EBB) segments. Morphological analysis of offset streams, ridges and alluvial fans-particularly well preserved in the arid environment of the Gobi region-allows evaluation of late Quaternary slip rates along the different faults segments. In this paper, we measure slip rates over the past 200 ka at four sites distributed across the three western segments of the Bogd Fault. Our results show that the left-lateral slip rate is similar to 1 mm yr(-1) along the WIB and EIB segments and similar to 0.5 mm yr(-1) along the NIB segment. These variations are consistent with the restraining bend geometry of the Bogd Fault.;Our study also provides additional estimates of the horizontal offset associated with the 1957 earthquake along the western part of the Bogd rupture, complementing previously published studies. We show that the mean horizontal offset associated with the 1957 earthquake decreases progressively from 5.2 m in the west to 2.0 m in the east, reflecting the progressive change of kinematic style from pure left-lateral strike-slip faulting to left-lateral-reverse faulting. Along the three western segments, we measure cumulative displacements that are multiples of the 1957 coseismic offset, which may be consistent with a characteristic slip. Moreover, using these data, we re-estimate the moment magnitude of the Gobi-Altay earthquake at M-w 7.78-7.95.;Combining our slip rate estimates and the slip distribution per event we also determined a mean recurrence interval of similar to 2500-5200 yr for past earthquakes along the different segments of the western Bogd Fault. This suggests that the three western segments of the Bogd Fault and the Gurvan Bulag thrust fault (a reverse fault bounding the southern side of the Ih Bogd range that ruptured during the 1957 earthquake) have similar average recurrence times, and therefore may have ruptured together in previous earthquakes as they did in 1957. These results suggest that the western part of the Bogd Fault system, including the Gurvan Bulag thrust fault, usually behaves in a 'characteristic earthquake' mode.

Résumé : International audience
OBJECTIVE: The WEGENT trial and other short-term studies suggested that azathioprine or methotrexate could effectively maintain granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) or microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) remission. Whether differences in relapse or adverse event rates would appear after discontinuation of those 2 maintenance regimens and longer follow-up remains unknown. METHODS: Long-term outcomes for the patients enrolled in the WEGENT trial were analyzed according to their randomization group. Parameters at trial entry were evaluated as potential prognostic factors for death, relapse or damage in multivariate models. RESULTS: Data were returned for 88.8% of the 126 original participants. Median [95% confidence interval] followup was 11.9 [11.3-12.5] years. For the azathioprine and methotrexate arms, respectively, the 10-year overall survival rates were 75.1% [64.8-86.9] and 79.9% [70.3-90.8] (P = 0.56), and relapse-free survival rates 26.3% [17.3-40.1] and 33.5% [23.5-47.7] (P = 0.29). No between-arm differences were observed for relapse, adverse events, damage, survival rates without severe side effects and survival rates without relapse and severe side effects. Considering only the 97 GPA patients, no between-arm survival differences were observed. Relapse-free survival was shorter for GPA than MPA patients but the multivariate analysis retained anti-PR3-ANCA-positivity, and not GPA, as being independently associated with relapse. CONCLUSION: This long-term analysis confirms that azathioprine and methotrexate are comparable options for maintaining GPA or MPA remission. Despite good overall survival, relapses, adverse events and damage remain matters of concern and further studies are needed to reduce them.

Résumé : En raison de la nature symbiotique des micro-organismes endophytes, cette étude visait à étudier l'activité antibactérienne, antifongique et cytotoxique chez les métabolites secondaires des extraits endophytes foliaires de plantes de l'Amazonie brésilienne et du Cerrado. Dans ce travail de thèse 147 micro-organismes cultivables ont été isolés (130 champignons, 3 bactéries e 14 champignons non-identifiés ou inconnus) à partir de 28 plantes (4 espèces collectées au Brésil et 24 en Guyane Française). Tous les micro-organismes furent identifiés par analyse moléculaire des régions spécifiques de l'ADNr en utilisant des techniques de séquençage génomique. Des champignons endophytes de l’ordre des Xylariales furent ceux de plus importante fréquence d’isolation dans cette étude, représentés par 25 isolats. Des extraits bruts à l’AcOEt furent produits à partir de cultures de chaque micro-organisme isolé. Une proportion relative signifiante (23,1%) des extraits démontra une activité sur Candida albicans ATCC 10213, pendant que 4% furent actifs sur Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213. Le potentiel cytotoxique des extraits fut évalué pour des lignées cellulaires humaines KB (carcinome cervical utérin), MDA-MB-435 (mélanome), et MRC-5 (fibroblastes de poumon normal), résultant en proportion signifiante avec activité d’inhibition de la prolifération cellulaire (24,4%, 23,1% e 16,3%, respectivement).Dix-huit métabolites secondaires furent isolés et identifiés à partir du fractionnement des extraits bruts de huit endophytes. Dix-sept de ces substances furent déjà décrites précédemment dans la littérature: l’acide piliformique (24) et la griséofulvine (25) isolés à partir de Xylaria cubensis SNB-GCI02; La phomopirone (26), la pyrenocine (27), l’alterpérilenol (28) et la novae-zelandine (29), isolés de Lewia infectoria SNB-GTC2402; 5-métilmelleina (31) et la dihidrosporothrioride (32) isolées à partir de Xylaria sp. SNB-GTC2501; La mycoleptodiscine (34) et la mycoleptodiscine B (35) isolées à partir de Mycoleptodiscus sp. SNB-GTC2304; le mycoepoxidiène (36) et la altiloxina A (37) isolés à partir de Diaporthe pseudomangiferae SNB-GSS10; L’acremonisol (40), le semicochliodinol (41) et le cochliodinol (42) isolés à partir de Chaetomium globosum SNB-GTC2114; la colletofragarone A2 (43) isolée à partir de Colletotrichum sp. SNB-GTC0201; la flavoglaucine (44) isolée à partir de Eurotium rubrum BBS01. Parmi ces substances, la flavoglaucine (44) isolée à partir de E. rubrum BBS01 démontra une activité comparable au contrôle fluconazol en C. albicans (CIM de 4 µg.mL-1). La substance (44) présenta IC50 >10 µM sur cellules normales MRC-5, ce qui en fait un candidat pour des études ultérieures. Dans ce travail, fut identifié pour la première fois l’activité de la colletofragarone A2 (43) isolée à partir de Colletotrichum sp. SNB-GTC0201. La substance inédite nommée pyrrocidine C (30) fut isolée à partir de L. infectoria SNB-GTC2402 et identifiée par des analyses spectroscopiques (Casella et al., 2013). La pyrrocidine C (30) fut active en S. aureus ATCC 10213 (CIM de 2 µg.mL-1) et ne fut pas considérées cytotoxique pour les cellules normales MRC-5 (IC50 >10 µM), démontrant une sélectivité dans l’action antimicrobienne. Ces résultats démontrent la grande diversité des endophytes fongiques chez les plantes de l'Amazonie brésilienne et du Cerrado et la grande chimiodiversité associée aux métabolites secondaires de ces micro-organismes. Des champignons endophytes tropicaux, comme ceux présentés dans cette étude, peuvent apparaître comme une nouvelle source de substances antimicrobiennes et cytotoxiques.
Because of the symbiotic nature of endophytes, this survey aims to investigate the probality of discovering antibacterial, antifungal and cytotoxic activities in secondary metabolites of leaf endophytes isolated from plants of Amazon and Cerrado biomes. In this study, 147 cultivable microorganisms were isolated (130 fungi, 3 bacteria and 14 unidentified or unknown microbes) from 28 plant species (4 species collected in Brazil and 24 in French Guyana). All endophytes were identified by molecular analyses of specific rDNA regions, with genomic sequencing techniques. Fungal endophytes belonging to Xylariales order were the most frequently isolated in this study, represented by 25 isolates. Crude AcOEt extracts were produced from cultures of each isolated endophyte. A significant relative proportion (23,1%) of extracts showed activity in Candida albicans ATCC 10213, while 4% were active in Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213. The cytotoxic potencial of the extracts was evaluated for human cell lines KB (uterin cervical carcinome), MDA-MB-435 (melanoma) and MRC-5 (normal lung fibroblasts), and a significant proportion of them showed cellular proliferation inhibition (24,4%, 23,1% e 16,3%, respectively).Eighteen secondary metabolites were isolated by the fractionation of eight endophytic extracts. Seventeen of these substances had already been previously described in the literature: piliformic acid (24) and griseofulvin (25) isolated from Xylaria cubensis SNB-GCI02; phomopiron A (26), pyrenocin A (27), alterperilenol (28) and novae-zelandin A (29) isolated from Lewia infectoria SNB-GTC2402; 5-metilmellein (31) and dihidrosporothriorid (32) isolated from Xylaria sp. SNB-GTC2501; mycoleptodiscin A (34) and mycoleptodiscin B (35) isolated from Mycoleptodiscus sp. SNB-GTC2304; mycoepoxidien (36) and altiloxin A (37) isolated from Diaporthe pseudomangiferae SNB-GSS10; acremonisol A (40), semicochliodinol A (41) and cochliodinol (42) isolated from Chaetomium globosum SNB-GTC2114; colletofragaron A2 (43) isolated from Colletotrichum sp. SNB-GTC0201; flavoglaucin (44) isolated from Eurotium rubrum BBS01. Among these substances, flavoglaucin (44), isolated from E. rubrum BBS01, showed comparable antifungal activity with the positive control fluconazol in C. albicans (MIC of 4 µg.mL-1). Flavoglaucin (44) also showed IC50 >10 µM in normal MRC-5 cells, becoming a good candidate for further studies. In this work, the cytotoxic activity of colletofragaron A2 (43), isolated from Colletotrichum sp. SNB-GTC0201 was described for the first time. The unpublished substance named pyrrocidin C (30) isolated from L. infectoria SNB-GTC2402 was identified by spectroscopic analyses (Casella et al., 2013). The pyrrocidin C (30) was active in S. aureus ATCC 10213 (MIC of 2 µg.mL-1), and was not considered cytotoxic for normal MRC-5 cells (IC50 >10 µM), showing selectivity in antimicrobial activity. These results demonstrate the great endophytic fungal diversity in plants of Amazon and Cerrado biomes, along with the chemodiversity associated to the secondary metabolites of these endophytes. Tropical fungal endophytes, like those seen in this work, may emerge as a new source of antimicrobial and cytotoxic substances.
Devido à natureza simbiótica dos micro-organismos endofíticos, este estudo teve como objetivo investigar a atividade antibacteriana, antifúngica e citotóxica em metabólitos secundários de extratos de fungos endofíticos foliares de plantas do bioma Amazônia e Cerrado. Neste trabalho de tese foram isolados 147 micro-organismos cultiváveis (130 fungos, 3 bactérias e 14 fungos não-identificados ou desconhecidos) a partir de 28 plantas (4 espécies coletadas no Brasil e 24 na Guiana Francesa). Todos os micro-organismos foram identificados por análise molecular de regiões específicas de DNAr, com uso de técnicas de sequenciamento genômico. Fungos endofíticos da ordem Xylariales foram os de maior frequência de isolamento neste estudo, representados por 25 isolados. Extratos brutos em AcOEt foram produzidos a partir de culturas de cada micro-organismo isolado. Uma proporção relativa significante (23,1%) dos extratos demonstrou atividade em Candida albicans ATCC 10213, enquanto 4% foram ativos em Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213. O potencial citotóxico dos extratos foi avaliado para as linhagens celulares humanas KB (carcinoma cervical uterino), MDA-MB-435 (melanoma), e MRC-5 (fibroblastos de pulmão normal), resultando em proporção significante com atividade de inibição da proliferação celular (24,4%, 23,1% e 16,3%, respectivamente). Dezoito metabólitos secundários foram isolados a partir do fracionamento de oito extratos brutos endofíticos. Dezessete destas substâncias já tinham sido descritas anteriormente na literatura: ácido pilifórmico (24) e griseofulvina (25) isoladas de Xylaria cubensis SNB-GCI02; phomopirona A (26), pyrenocina A (27), alterperilenol (28) e novae-zelandina A (29) isoladas de Lewia infectoria SNB-GTC2402; 5-metilmelleina (31) e Dihidrosporothriolida (32) isoladas de Xylaria sp.

SNB-GTC2304; mycoepoxidieno (36) e altiloxina A (37) isoladas de Diaporthe pseudomangiferae SNB-GSS10; acremonisol A (40), semicochliodinol A (41) e cochliodinol (42) isoladas de Chaetomium globosum SNB-GTC2114; colletofragarona A2 (43) isolada de Colletotrichum sp. SNB-GTC0201; flavoglaucina (44) isolada de Eurotium rubrum BBS01. Dentre estas substâncias, a flavoglaucina (44) isolada de E. rubrum BBS01, demonstrou atividade comparável ao controle fluconazol em C. albicans (CIM de 4 µg.mL-1). Esta substância (44) apresentou IC50 >10 µM em células normais MRC-5, tornando-se candidata para estudos posteriores. Neste trabalho foi identificado pela primeira vez a atividade citotóxica da colletofragarona A2 (43), isolada de Colletotrichum sp. SNB-GTC0201. A substância inédita nomeada pyrrocidina C (30) foi isolada a partir de L. infectoria SNB-GTC2402 e identificada através de análises espectroscópicas (Casella et al., 2013). A pyrrocidina C (30) foi ativa em S. aureus ATCC 10213 (CIM de 2 µg.mL-1), e não foi considerada citotóxica para as células normais MRC-5 (IC50 >10 µM), demonstrando seletividade na ação antimicrobiana. Estes resultados demonstram a grande diversidade fúngica endofítica em plantas do bioma Amazônia e Cerrado, e a quimiodiversidade associada aos metabólitos secundários destes micro-organismos. Fungos endofíticos tropicais, como os vistos neste trabalho, podem emergir como uma nova fonte de substâncias antimicrobianas e citotóxicas.

Résumé : International audience
The Ama Drime range located at the transition between the high Himalayan range and south Tibet is a N-S active horst that offsets the South Tibetan Detachment System (STDS). Within the horst, a paragneissic unit, possibly attributed to the upper Himalayan crystalline series, overly the lower Himalayan crystalline series Ama Drime orthogneissic unit containing large metabasite layers and pods that have experienced pressure >= 1.4 GPa. Combining structural analysis with new and published pressure-temperature (P-T) estimates as well as U-Th/Pb, Ar-39/Ar-40 and (U-Th)/He ages, the P-T-deformation-time (P-T-D-t) paths of the main units within and on both sides of the horst are reconstructed. They imply that N-S normal faults initiated prior to 11 Ma and have accounted for a total exhumation <= 0.6 GPa (22 km) that probably occurred in two phases: the first one until similar to 9 Ma and the second one since 6 to 4 Ma at a rate of similar to 1 mm/yr. In the Ama Drime unit, 1 to 1.3 GPa (37 to 48 km) of exhumation occurred after partial melting since similar to 30 Ma until similar to 13 Ma, above the Main Central Trust (MCT) and below the STDS when these two fault systems were active together. The switch from E-W (STDS) to N-S (Ama Drime horst) normal faulting between 13 and 12 Ma occurs at the time of propagation of thrusting from the MCT to the Main Boundary Thrust. These data are in favor of a wedge extrusion or thrust system rather than a crustal flow model for the building of the Himalaya. We propose that the kinematics of south Tibet Cenozoic extension phases is fundamentally driven by the direction and rate of India underthrusting.

Résumé : International audience
The southernmost part of the Ryukyu subduction, where the Philippine Sea Plate is subducting under the Eurasian Plate, is known to be a very seismically active region of transition from a north-dipping subduction along the Ryukyu subduction to an ~ SE-NW collision along the Taiwanese orogenic wedge. In this paper, we will focus on the Ryukyu forearc area close to Taiwan where the deformation is paroxysmal. In order to decipher the nature of the seismic deformation in this region, a three month passive experiment, combining 22 Ocean Bottom Seismometers and 51 onland stations, has been led. Starting from an a-priori heterogeneous model, we have obtained 801 well-located earthquake hypocenters, a precise P-wave tomography model and 14 focal mechanisms. The seismicity along the Ryukyu forearc is mainly located not only in the vicinity of the Interplate Seismogenic Zone (ISZ) but also within both the subducting PSP and the overriding plate. Seismicity within the upper-plate is essentially localized east of Nanao basin where NW-SE extension occurs, and northwest of the Hoping basin where strike-slip dominates. As revealed by both the P-wave velocity structure and the newly derived seismicity, we argue that a sub-vertical step offsetting the subducting PSP around 10 km may support the presence of a trench-parallel tear. The PSP also undergoes extension in its upper part that is probably caused by buckling and slab pull. The P-wave velocity structure reveals three other major features: (1) a continuity between the Central Range and the Ryukyu Arc with a shallower Moho (~ 30 km depth) between ~ 122.3°N and ~ 122.5°N along the Ryukyu Arc, (2) high P-wave velocities along the eastern side of the Central Range and, (3) two bodies with similar high crustal velocities (6.5-7.0 km/s) at 12-18 km depths, embedded within the Ryukyu arc basement, just north of Hoping Basin and north of the Nanao Basin.

Résumé : Based on new multibeam bathymetric data, seismic-reflection profiles and side-scan sonar images, a great number of submarine failures of various types and sizes was identified along the northern margin of the Ligurian Basin and characterized with 3 distinct end-members concerning their location on the margin, sedimentary processes and possible triggering mechanisms. They include superficial landslides mainly located in the vicinity of the main mountain-supplied rivers and on the inner walls of canyons (typically smaller that 10(8) m(3) in volume: Type 1), deep scars 100-500 m high along the base of the continental slope (Type 2), and large-scale scars and Mass Transport Deposits (MTDs) affecting the upper part of the slope (Type 3 failures). The MTDs are located in different environmental contexts of the margin, including the deep Var Sedimentary Ridge (VSR) and the upper part of the continental slope in the Gulf of Genova (Finale Slide and Portofino Slide), with volumes of missing sediment reaching up to 1.5 x 10(9) m(3). High sedimentation rates related to hyperpycnal flows, faults and earthquake activity, together with sea-level fluctuations are the main factors invoked to explain the distribution and sizes of these different failure types.

Résumé : The Neogene geodynamics evolution of the south-Alboran realm in western Mediterranean has been clarified, based on sedimentological and chronostratigraphical studies. This work focuses on three main themes of research, the first is to establish the moments for the opening and closing of the North Rifian Corridor by studying two Neogene basins of the southern edge of the Alboran sea. The second, aims to understand the behavior of these two basins face a major event in the history of the Mediterranean: The Messinian Salinity Crisis. Finally, the third theme aims to understand the modalities Post-MSC reflooding in the southern part of the Alboran realm.The late Miocene evolution of the North Rifian Corridor is clarified on the basis of chronostratigraphic studies of the Neogene Boudinar and Arbaa Taourirt basins (northeastern Morocco). The marine sediments deposited in the Boudinar basin between the early Tortonian and the late early Messinian (10 Ma to 6.1 Ma) and in the late Tortonian-earliest Messinian interval in the Arbaa Taourirt basin. Palaeoenvironmental data record a major drowning in association with extensive tectonics in the Boudinar basin during the early Messinian at ~7.2 Ma. At the same time, prograding conglomerates and sandstones developed over the late Tortonian marls in the Arbaa Taourirt basin. During the late-early Messinian, a shallowing trend occurred in the Boudinar basin. Thus, the North Rifian Corridor opened at ~7.2 Ma ensuring Atlantic-Mediterranean connections, then was progressively restricted during the late-early Messinian and totally closed at ~6.1 Ma. New sedimentological and paleontological studies of the late Messinian-early Pliocene deposits in the Boudinar basin provide new information on the Messinian Salinity Crisis (« MSC ») and the Zanclean reflooding in the Alboran sea. The Messinian erosional surface « MES » is of late Messinian age and was emplaced in subaerial settings. It is polygenic, its original geometry is locally preserved and was re-shaped by the Pliocene transgressive surface. Above the « MES », the Boudinar basin infill is characterized by a wide variety of facies from continental settings to lower offshore conditions. Two major sets are recognized: a latest Messinian-Zanclean set that constitutes a transgressive-regressive megasequence interrupted at the top by a tectonic unconformity, and an Plio-Quaternary regressive set. During the late Messinian Zanclean interval, four successive depositional models were documented. They record major changes in palaeoflow and paleogeography related to base-level fluctuations. No Gilbert-type delta has ben identified at Boudinar. the beginning of base-level rise is marked by normal regressions and by the formation of several lacs and fan-delta complexes on the margins of the basin in the late Messinian and befor the marine reefloding in the early Zanclean. The marine reflooding of the basin appears later, with a transgressive surface of ravinment and a thick package of transgressive deposits. These transgressive deposits onlap over all previous deposits. The major part of the basin infill did not issue from an inner landward position (south of the basin) but from the northwestern side of the basin, i.e. near the Mediterranean. Sediments were subsequently reworked by storms and transported by longshore-drift towards the south. a maximum flooding surface is found several tens of metres above the « MES ». This fiding is consistent with a progressive and not a catastrophic early Zanclean flooding of the westernMediterranean after the Mediterranean base-level fall.
Sur la base d’études sédimentologiques et chronostratigraphiques dans les bassins de Boudinar et d’Arbaa Taourirt (Rif oriental, Maroc), l’évolution géodynamique néogène du domaine sud-Alboran en Méditerranée occidentale a été clarifiée. Ce travail est axé sur trois grandes thématiques de recherche. La première vise à l’établissement d’un cadre chronostratigraphique pour l’ouverture et la fermeture du Couloir Nord Rifain, par l’étude de deux bassins nèogènes de la bordure sud de la mer d’Alboran. La deuxième, vise à comprendre le comportement de ces deux bassins face à un événement majeur de l’histoire de la Mediterranée : la Crise de salinité messinienne. Finalement, la troisième vise à comprendre les modalités de remise en eau de la Méditerranée après la Crise : le reenoiement pliocène. L'évolution du Couloir Nord Rifain au Miocène supérieur est clarifiée sur la base des études chronostratigraphiques des bassins néogènes de Boudinar et d'Arbaa Taourirt (Maroc Nord oriental). Les sédiments marins miocènes se sont déposés entre le Tortonien inférieur et le Messinien inférieur (10 à 6.1 Ma) dans le bassin de Boudinar et entre le Tortonien supérieur et le Messinien inférieur dans le bassin d'Arbaa Taourirt. Les données paléoenvironnementales enregistrent un ennoyage important du bassin de Boudinar en relation avec une tectonique extensive pendant le Messinien inférieur (~7.2 Ma). En même temps, des conglomérats et de grès progradants se sont développés au-dessus des marnes tortoniennes dans le bassin d’Arbaa Taourirt. Le bassin de Boudinar a subi un désapprofondissement au Messinien inférieur. Ces résultats indiquent que le Couloir Nord Rifain s’est ouvert à ~7.2 Ma assurant les communications entre l’Atlantique et la Méditerranée, puis a subi une restriction progressive pendant le Messinien inférieur avant d’être totalement fermé à ~6.1 Ma.De nouvelles études sédimentologiques et paléontologiques des dépôts Messinien supérieur-Pliocène inférieur dans le bassin de Boudinar fournissent des informations sur la Crise de salinité messinienne (« MSC ») et le réennoiement zancléen dans la Mer d'Alboran. L’un des marqueurs majeurs de la Crise est identifié : la surface d’érosion messinienne « MES ». Elle est d'âge Messinien supérieur et a été mise en place dans des conditions subaériennes. Sa géométrie originale n’est préservée que localement et a été remodelée par la surface transgressive du Pliocène inférieur. Au dessus de la « MES » le remplissage sédimentaire du bassin de Boudinar est caractérisé par une grande variété de faciès allant des conditions de dépôts continentales jusqu’à des conditions d’offshore inférieur. Deux ensembles majeurs sont reconnus : un ensemble messinien terminal-zancléen qui constitue une mégaséquence transgressive-regressive, interrompue au sommet par une discordance tectonique, et un ensemble plio-quaternaire regressif. Durant l’intervalle Messinien terminal-Zancléen, quatre modèles de dépôts successifs ont été documentés enregistrant des changements majeurs de paléocourants et de paléogéographies, liés aux fluctuations de niveau de base. Nous n’avons pas identifié de Gilbert delta à Boudinar. La remontée du niveau de base est marquée par une régression normale et par le développement des lacs et de complexes de fan-deltas sur les marges du bassin pendant le Messinien supérieur, avant l’inondation marine au Zancléen basal. Le réennoiement marin du bassin apparait plus tard avec une surface de transgression ravinante et par d’épais dépôts transgressifs, en onlap sur tous les dépôts précédents. La majeure partie du remplissage sédimentaire du bassin n’est pas reçue des reliefs de la bordure sud du bassin, mais du côté Nord-Ouset au bord de la Méditerranée. Les sédiments sont alors remaniés par les tempêtes et transportés vers le sud par la dérive littorale. Une surface d’inondation maximale a été identifiée à plusieurs dizaines de mètres au-dessus de la « MES ». Ceci suggère un ennoiement progressif et non catastrophique, après la chute du niveau de base méditerranéen.

Résumé : A new sand-dwelling dinoflagellate species, Cabra reticulata sp. nov., is described from sandy habitats in the south of Brittany (northwestern France). This new species possesses the characteristics of the 'unusual' genus, Cabra Murray et Patterson. The thecal plate formula is Po Pt 3' 1a 4'' 'x' 3c ?s 5''' 1'''' (or alternatively interpreted as Po Pt 4' 0a 4'' 'x' 3c ?s 5''' 1''''). Because of the strong lateral compression, cells of C. reticulata are frequently seen laterally and have a polygonal shape, with three prominent antapical pointed flanges and a dorsal spine in the anterior part of the hypotheca. The cingulum is ascending and incomplete. The thecal surface is ornamented with strong reticulations forming polygonal areolae, which differs from C. matta Murray et Patterson, the type species of the genus. In addition to their different size and shape, a detailed study of C. reticulata by scanning electron microscopy also revealed several different plate features. Plates of the cingulum, c1 and c3, have no reticulations and are ornamented with shallow round areolae, while c2 is only faintly reticulated. Plate 1'''' is also characteristic because dorsally it forms a prominent pointed flange and ventrally bears a peculiar small area of densely arranged pores or tiny areolae. A similar finding has previously been described in Roscoffia capitata Balech. In the description of the genus, it was suggested that Cabra is closely related to species of the genus Roscoffia, and our observations strengthen this hypothesis. Prior to this study, C. reticulata was probably observed in the Virgin Islands, Caribbean Sea, but was tentatively identified as Thecadinium sp. and not fully described. Thus, C. reticulata appears to be present on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean and to occupy benthic habitats in temperate and tropical areas.
