The promoter of the tobacco Tnt1 retrotransposon is induced by wounding and by abiotic stress.
The transcription of the tobacco Tnt1 retrotransposon was previously shown to be induced, in tobacco and in heterologous species, by microbial elicitors and by pathogen infections. We report here that the expression of the Tnt1 promoter is also activated in heterologous species such as tomato and Arabidopsis by wounding, freezing and by other abiotic factors known to induce the plant defence response, such as salicylic acid, CuCl2, or oxidative stress. A similar regulation is observed in tobacco for most treatments. The induction of the Tnt1 promoter expression by wounding remains localized around injury points. In CuCl2-treated Arabidopsis plants, the transcription of Tnt1 is correlated with accumulation of the phytoalexin camalexin and with the expression of the EL13 defence gene. The interest of the Tnt1 promoter as a sensitive indicator of the plant defence responses is discussed.

Influence of anti-inflammatory agents on the survival of Drosophila.
Various anti-inflammatory compounds were tested for their influence on the life span of the fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster). 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid increased the median life span by 10.9% when fed to adults at a concentration of 1 X 10(-5)M for the entire adult life span. All other anti-inflammatory compounds including acetylsalicylic acid, acetylsalicylic acid plus cupric chloride, Bufferin, chlorpromazine HC1, dimethylsulfoxide, indomethacin, phenol, salicylic acid, and sodium salicylate either decreased or did not change the life span. Rearing flies on 0.5% (0.060M) dimethylsulfoxide caused a 33.3% reduction in life span compared with an 11.8% reduction when fed during adulthood only. At low doses all of the anti-inflammatory compounds including dimethylsulfoxide proved to be nontoxic as measured by changes in life span.
