Population numbers of woodchucks may have been reduced locally in Wisconsin through shooting during a pest eradication effort. Population density is difficult to measure and is variable among marmots, ranging from 2 to 15 animals per km2. Hunting, trapping, and domestic dogs (Canus familiaris) contribute to marmot mortality in areas populated by humans.

The expression and localization of the woodchuck hepatitis virus X-antigen (WHxAg) was examined and compared with other markers of a woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) infection using rabbit antisera generated against recombinant WHxAg produced in bacteria. Cellular fractionation studies showed that WHxAg was localized to the soluble and cytoskeletal fractions of the cell when assayed by immunoprecipitation of [35S]-met-cys labeled extracts derived from primary cultures of acute WHV-infected hepatocytes. Immunohistochemical examination of liver from chronic WHV-infected animals showed WHV core antigen (WHcAg) and WHxAg expression in non-neoplastic tissue. The WHxAg was found localized to the cytoplasm of infected cells, similar to WHcAg. WHxAg expression was diminished in the foci of altered hepatocytes and in hepatocellular adenomas but was found in only 1 of 11 hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC). Hepatic biopsies from woodchucks experimentally inoculated with WHV were examined during the acute phase of infection and during convalescence for WHcAg and WHxAg expression by immunohistochemistry. Concurrent expression of WHcAg and WHxAg was observed during the viremic phase of infection. The two antigens exhibited similar localization to the cell cytoplasm, similar distribution within the liver lobule, and similar patterns of clearance during convalescence. An immune response to WHxAg was documented in some woodchucks following acute WHV infection. These studies further define the woodchuck model of HBV infection and should allow for the investigation of the role of hepadnaviral X-antigen expression in the pathogenesis of chronic hepatitis and HCC.

Adult woodchucks (Marmota monax) chronically infected with woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) were treated orally with lamivudine (15 mg/kg per day) for 57 weeks. After 20 weeks of treatment a 2-3 log reduction in serum WHV DNA was detected. Serum titers of WHV then increased gradually, in the presence of lamivudine treatment, reaching pre-treatment values by week 40. Viral recrudescence was associated with development of mutations in the B domain of the WHV polymerase gene. Mutations observed in the highly conserved FLLA motif of the B domain were L564V, L565M, and A566T, with A566T being the most frequently observed. Beginning on week 57 of lamivudine treatment, one group (n = 3) was treated orally with adefovir dipivoxil at a dose of 15 mg/kg per day plus lamivudine, and a second group (n = 3) was treated with H2O placebo plus lamivudine. In woodchucks treated with adefovir dipivoxil, two had the A566T mutation, and one had both A566T and L565V. In the group maintained on lamivudine monotherapy, A566T alone was present in one animal, another carried both A566T and L565V, and in the third, no B-domain mutations were detected. There was a 4.5 log reduction in serum WHV DNA after 12 weeks of treatment with the adefovir/lamivudine combination, while in the lamivudine monotherapy controls, WHV DNA decreased by only 0.83 log (P > 0.001). A slight recurrence in serum titers of WHV DNA was observed one week after withdrawal of adefovir treatment but no further increase in viral load was observed during the remainder of the 12-week post-treatment follow-up period. The results demonstrate that supplemental adefovir dipivoxil treatment is effective in suppressing replication of lamivudine-resistant B-domain mutants in the woodchuck model of hepatitis B virus infection.

Primary woodchuck (Marmota monax) hepatocytes from normal woodchucks and woodchucks with chronic woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) infection were cultured in either a conventional serum-containing medium or a serum-free medium. The de novo synthesis of the plasma proteins albumin, transferrin, fibrinogen, and complement C3 were identical under both conditions. However, expression of the WHV and the synthesis of nitric oxide were diminished under serum-free conditions. Primary woodchuck hepatocytes cultured in conventional, serum-containing medium were immortalized utilizing the simian virus 40 T antigen oncogene. Immortalized hepatic cell lines retained differentiated functions of nitric oxide synthesis and expression of complement C3. The woodchuck hepatocyte culture model will supplement current experimental methods, allowing investigation of hepadnaviral pathogenesis, including hepatocarcinogenesis in vitro.

Woodchuck hepatocytes were immortalized with the simian virus 40 T antigen (SV40 T-ag) oncogene and utilized in an oncogenic transformation assay. Transfection of these cell lines with an activated C-Ha-ras oncogene (EJ6.6) resulted in the transformation of cells to a phenotype characterized by anchorage-independent growth in soft agar. Colonies of transformed cells were subcloned and up to 80% were positive for oncoprotein expression detected by immunoblot and Northern blot procedures. When compared with the parental cell lines, ras-transformed derivatives were altered both morphologically and in growth rate. The tumorigenic potential of c-Ha-ras transformed cells was demonstrated in severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice. There was a latency period of 1 to 4 weeks before tumors were detectable and a period of 7 weeks was required for tumors to reach a diameter of 1 cm. Histologically, tumors derived from cell lines fully transformed by the SV40 T-ag had the appearance of well-differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) while tumors derived from c-Ha-ras transformed cell lines had the appearance of poorly differentiated HCC. The capacity to induce oncogenic transformation events in immortalized woodchuck hepatic cell lines should provide the opportunity to study the cooperative effects of hepadnaviral genes in hepatocarcinogenesis in vitro.

Marmota monax, hépatite, hepatitis, cancer.
Integrations of woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) DNA and rearrangements of the N-myc 2 gene have been detected frequently in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) of Eastern woodchucks (Marmota monax) chronically infected with WHV. Fifty-five hepatocellular neoplasms and matched nontumor hepatic tissue specimens obtained postmortem from 13 chronic WHV carriers were analyzed and the frequency of WHV DNA integrations and of N-myc rearrangements compared in tumors of different size and histologic grade. Four small tumor nodules were classified histologically as adenomas and integrated sequences of WHV DNA were detected in two of the four tumor nodules. In one of the two nodules, there was evidence of N-myc rearrangement. Fifty-one neoplasms were classified as HCC. Seven were grade 1 HCCs. WHV DNA integrations were demonstrated in 43% but none had N-myc rearrangements. Twenty grade 2 HCCs had WHV DNA integrations in 80% and in 38% N-myc rearrangements were present. Twenty-four grade 3 HCCs had integrations of WHV DNA in 79% and N-myc rearrangements in 74%. In two other grade 3 HCCs, rearrangements of N-myc were detected in the absence of WHV DNA integrations. The 12 largest tumors in the series all were grade 2 or 3 HCCs, and in 83%, both WHV DNA integrations and N-myc rearrangements were demonstrated. In conclusion, molecular changes observed in this study suggest a progression of genetic alterations providing either a significant proliferative stimulation and/or a growth advantage in hepatocarcinogenesis of woodchucks with chronic WHV infection.

Our aim was to evaluate the antiviral effect of a combination of two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, emtricitabine (FTC) and clevudine (L-FMAU), with the addition of an adenovirus-driven delivery of recombinant gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) in the woodchuck model of hepatitis B virus infection. Six woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV)-infected woodchucks received L-FMAU (10 mg/kg) plus FTC (30 mg/kg) intraperitoneally for 8 weeks; six other animals received in addition an intravenous injection of a recombinant adenovirus vector expressing woodchuck IFN-gamma (Ad-IFN) at weeks 4 and 8. In the control group, two animals received Ad-IFN alone, two received adenovirus vector expressing the green fluorescent protein reporter gene, and one remained untreated. In less than 2 weeks, all woodchucks that received L-FMAU plus FTC showed a rapid and marked inhibition of viral replication, with a 4-log(10) drop in serum WHV DNA. In two animals, viremia remained suppressed for several months after the end of treatment. Similarly, a dramatic decrease in intrahepatic replicative intermediates of viral DNA was observed in the L-FMAU/FTC-treated groups. The additional administration of Ad-IFN led to increased inflammation in the liver but did not enhance the antiviral effect of the L-FMAU/FTC combination. In conclusion, therapies combining L-FMAU and FTC in WHV-infected woodchucks resulted in a potent and sustained antihepadnaviral effect both in the liver and in the blood circulation. However, no extra benefit of adding IFN-gamma gene transduction to the L-FMAU/FTC combination could be detected.

The Vancouver Island marmot (Marmota vancouverensis) Swarth 1911, one of only two species found entirely within Canada, is endemic to Vancouver Island, British Columbia. It was officially designated as an endangered species in March 1980. This recent status resulted from increased public interest and recognition that this species inhabits a very localized ecological niche; steep, south-facing talus and meadow slopes within the subalpine and alpine biogeoclimatic zones along the Vancouver Island insular mountain range. The Vancouver Island marmot is ecologically similar to other alpine marmots (M. caligata, M. olympus, M. browerii) as reflected by general behaviour, ectoparasites (Heard 1977) and karyotype (Rausch and Rausch 1971). It differs in skull characteristics (Howell 1915) and the dark chocolate brown coloration of the new pelage. The contrasting white coloration of the muzzle, forehead and breast is also distinctive. Colonization of Vancouver Island by marmots is speculated to have occurred during the Illinoian glacial period (100,000 B.P.), with subsequent ecological divergence from the ancestral M. caligata stock (Heard 1977). The restricted habitat, relatively low numbers, and general biology of this species provide challenging opportunities for management and conservation measures.

The Vancouver Island marmot Marmota vancouverensis is the only endemic mammal species in Canada that has been listed as “endangered” either by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) or by any provincial or territorial government. Surveys suggest one metapopulation of 200-300 individuals concentrated in the Nanaimo-Cowichan Lake region. Data on historical distribution and abundance are limited, but marmots have apparently disappeared from some parts of Vancouver Island. Causes are unknown. In 1988 a Recovery Team was established to prepare an action plan that, when implemented, would result in populations of sufficient size and distribution to remove the Vancouver Island marmot from the endangered list. Population objectives are based on the need to prevent inbreeding, maintain long-term genetic variability, and reduce the vulnerability of marmot colonies to extinction through random environmental events. Additional inventory and research activities are essential, but translocation is the most important tool through which recovery objectives can be achieved. The team recommends a population objective of 400 to 600 marmots dispersed in three meta-populations on Vancouver Island. Research, public education and funding requirements are integral components of the recovery plan.

The purpose of this document is to reassess the goals, objectives and tasks of the initial National Recovery Plan for the Vancouver Island Marmot (Janz et al. 1994), and provide an overview of changes needed to achieve down-listing of Marmota vancouverensis from endangered status.
The original recovery goal of 400-600 marmots dispersed in three metapopulations on Vancouver Island has not changed and remains justifiable on geographic, habitat, genetic and demographic grounds.
New data have clarified past and present marmot distribution and abundance. Inventory techniques are now properly developed and the population status of this animal is well known compared to most other species at risk in British Columbia.
Within the “core” metapopulation south of Alberni Inlet, populations have declined by approximately 60% in the last decade. Marmots disappeared from the western Strathcona metapopulation within the last several decades, and the Forbidden Plateau metapopulation is now represented only by small colonies on Mount
Washington. The entire population of the species was estimated at fewer than 100 individuals in 1998, of which >50% live in recently logged habitats. The spatial structure of colonies has changed in response to logging of high elevation (>700 m) forests. Additional colonies will probably continue to be formed and found, but it is unlikely that significant populations remain undiscovered.
It is difficult to determine why marmots disappeared from areas north of Alberni Inlet because so few historical (1900 to present) population data exist. Contributing factors may include weather, predators, changing patterns of climate, predation, disease, hunting by humans, and reduced landscape connectivity. Empirical evidence for any of these processes is weak. Apart from concluding that post-glacial forest succession has generally reduced the amount of potential marmot habitat, we know only that disappearances occurred relatively recently.
South of Alberni Inlet, forestry has produced dramatic effects on populations. Survival of marmots is lower in clearcuts and logging has apparently inhibited dispersal movements by providing “easy” alternative places in which to settle. The most important result of forestry was to concentrate the population, thereby increasing the risk of mortality from other factors.
Wolves, cougars and golden eagles prey upon marmots. Radio-telemetry indicates that predation has played an important role at some colonies. The significance of parasites and infectious disease remains unclear although mortality has been associated with some parasitic and bacterial infections. Survival data are consistent with a hypothesis of localized mortality factors such as disease or hunting patterns by individual predators. Mark-recapture work suggests that most mortality occurs during winter hibernation, particularly in clearcuts. Weather plays a role but explains only a small amount of the variation in survival rates. There is no evidence to suggest that reproductive rates have declined. Survival rates have declined and the frequency of high-mortality episodes has increased.
Most research objectives contained in the 1994 Recovery Plan have been met although population objectives have not. Population distribution, trends, and ecology are now reasonably well understood. Health issues constitute the most important unanswered research questions. Progress has been made towards characterizing potential reintroduction habitats although more work is required. With a handful of exceptions, additional habitat protection or habitat manipulation is not required. Experience on Vancouver Island and elsewhere supports the belief that reintroduction presents a realistic management tool. Substantial progress has been made towards increased public awareness, funding and political support.
Changes to the 1994 recovery plan Much of the initial plan was focused on activities designed to determine population trends and answer basic ecological questions. Many relevant questions are now answered. The challenge now is to get on with the job of implementing the Plan, and raising the necessary financial support to do so. The updated recovery plan is based on four premises.

1.It is doubtful that significant new populations will be found north of Alberni Inlet although that possibility exists.
2.South of Alberni Inlet, it appears unlikely that marmot populations will suddenly rebound of their own accord.
3.Another population expansion in the Nanaimo Lakes metapopulation such as occurred during the early 1980s would probably not result in increased geographic distribution (although it would give the Recovery Team additional options).
4.Captive-breeding combined with reintroductions presents the best hope of increasing populations within a reasonable period of time.

At least seven of the world’s 14 marmot species (M. bobac, M. baibacina, M. menzbieri, M. marmota, M. monax, M. flaviventris, M. broweri) have been successfully reared in captivity. Reintroductions using both captive-reared and wild-captured marmots have been successful although some individual releases failed.
Experience from western Europe suggests that repeated reintroductions based on annual releases of ~20 individuals will work. The mathematics of marmot reproductive biology indicate that this will require maintenance of 40-80 marmots in captivity for a period of 5-15 years.
Recovery: the next 5 years
The next five years will require that the Team invest heavily in several broad areas.

Just as the future of M. vancouverensis is precarious by virtue of small numbers and confined distribution, eventual success of recovery efforts will be limited by money and personnel. Recovery is probably ecologically feasible but will require substantial financial, political and scientific investments together with a revised organizational structure.

Histologic and clinicopathologic findings of a woodchuck (Marmota monax) vertically infected with woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) are presented. The liver exhibits marked cirrhotic changes, which is characteristic of the pre-transformation phase of WHV. At necropsy, the woodchuck exhibited ascites and the liver had a grossly nodular appearance. Microscopically, focal hepatocyte necrosis and inflammatory cells were observed in midzonal and periportal areas in the liver. In Macchiavellos stained sections, cytoplasmic inclusion bodies appeared reddish granular materials. We believe that this may represent a new suitable and cost-effective cirrhotic model for the disease processes associated with hepadnaviruses in a number of other species, most notably Hepatitis B virus infection in man.

Objective of our investigation was to confirm whether the Alataw mountain is plague natural foci or not, and the relate fauna of the animals and insects. The investigation of Epidemiology, Medical zoology and entomology, serology and bacteriology,ect. were carried out. A investigation of plague natural foci was carried out, situated 79∞53'-81∞20'E and 44∞55'-45∞10'N, on one side mountain of China-Alataw mountain which associated with a research team by Xinjiang disease prevention control center and sanitary and anti-epidemic station of Wenquan County in June to August 2003. The investigation is main according to Alataw mountain District, which discovers big area of died Marmota baibacina since 1999, and one positive serum of plague F1 antibody was discovered in dog by sanitary and anti-epidemic station of Wenquan Countyat Kundelun ranch in 2002. The animals of Ten species were captured in the investigated area, including Lepus capensis, Marmota baibacina, Citellus undulates, Citellus erythrogenys, Sicista tianschanica, Apodemus sylvaticus, Cricetulus migratorius, Microtus arvalis, Alticola argentatus and Allactaga sibirica. The Predommated rodents is Marmota baibacina having at an altitude of 2000- 3000 meters in the area, the second is Citellus undulates which is same habitat with Marmota baibacina, there are Citellus erythrogenys at some area of situated 1600-1900 meters. The population density of the marmot was 2.5-5.5/hm2 by fixed observation. The best density was 2.36/hm2 and the lowest was 0.01/hm2 by a route method. The infecting flea of the marmot is 3.6% in the neck of hole and is 6.2% on the body of the marmot. The 18 species of the fleas, 2 of the ticks and 1 of the louse were collected on the body of the rodents. Oropsylla silantiewi and Frontopsylla elatoides were the main carriers on marmot. 180 serum specimens from various rodents and 114 from dogs were examined by hemagglutination test for antibody to Y. pestis, the antibody to F 1 antigen was detected in the sera of two marmots and one dog. Four strains of Y. pestis were isolated from 25 animals of the naturaliy dead; four strains were all from marmot. The investigation supplied the evidence for the first time that natural plague foci existed in the surveyed areas.

A site capable of strictly host- and cell type-specific recognition was identified in the preS1 domain of woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) through the use of antipeptide antisera generated against the extreme N-terminal fragment of the large virus envelope protein. The crucial determinant of this binding site was mapped to amino acids 10-13. Although a synthetic analogue of the site was highly immunogenic, natural WHV envelope did not display the site activity unless it was modified by proteolysis or acidic pH treatment, indicating an internal location of the determinant in viral envelope. Synthetic peptides encompassing the sequence of this site bound woodchuck lymphoid cells and hepatocytes in a species-restricted manner which followed characteristics of a specific ligand-receptor interaction, although their ability to interact with lymphoid cells was considerably greater than that for hepatocytes. In WHV-infected animals, a natural antibody to the identified cryptic cell-binding site arose independently of that directed against epitopes of unmodified virus envelope and its appearance constituted the earliest immunovirological indicator of virus invasion. Our results demonstrated that the preS1 domain of the large WHV envelope protein is endowed with the species- and cell type-specific recognition site which is protected against antibody surveillance by the natural tertiary structure of the protein and we suggest that proteolytic cleavage is required to induce the binding activity.

En anglais, in English.

Fourteen young Chinese marmots (Marmota bobak sibirica Radde) were randomly allocated to two groups of seven each. They were injected intrahepatically with a standard woodchuck hepatitis virus challenge pool or a negative pool, prepared from sera of woodchucks with and without woodchuck hepatitis virus infection, respectively. Marmot No. 2 in the experimental group experienced an episode of seroconversion from woodchuck hepatitis surface antigen to anti-woodchuck hepatitis antibody. Woodchuck hepatitis virus DNA was detected, and woodchuck hepatitis surface antigen particles of both spherical and filamentous forms and intact woodchuck hepatitis virus virions were found in its serum. By contrast, none of the control group animals (receiving the negative pool) produced any marker of woodchuck hepatitis virus. This suggests that young Chinese marmots can get woodchuck hepatitis virus infection.

Viral hepatitis is frequently accompanied by humoral autoimmune responses toward both organ-nonspecific and liver-specific antigens, but contribution of these reactivities to liver injury remains unrecognized. Infection with woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) has been identified as a potent inducer of autoantibodies against asialoglycoprotein receptor (anti-ASGPR), a molecule essentially unique to hepatocytes that mediates clearance of desialylated serum proteins. In this study, we applied the WHV-woodchuck model of hepatitis B to examine the effect of experimentally elicited anti-ASGPR on the progression and the severity of WHV hepatitis in initially healthy animals immunized with the receptor and then infected with WHV and in woodchucks with ongoing chronic WHV hepatitis. The results implied that the induction of anti-ASGPR prior to WHV infection tends to modulate acute viral hepatitis toward chronic outcome and, in animals with established chronic WHV infection, exacerbates histologic severity of liver lesions. The findings also suggest that the liver compromised by chronic hepadnavirus infection might be prone to anti-ASGPR-directed complement-mediated hepatocellular injury and that this is associated with formation of the ASGPR-anti-ASGPR immune complexes on hepatocyte surface. In conclusion, the host's immune response mounted against a hepatocyte-specific autoantigen may modulate both the outcome and the severity of liver injury in viral hepatitis.

We examined 617 kills made by radio-tracked Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx (Linnaeus, 1758) from March 1988 to May 1998 to assess prey spectrum, preference, and food consumption rates in the Swiss Jura Mountains. Roe deer Capreolus capreolus and chamois Rupicapra rupicapra were the main prey (69 and 22%, respectively), followed by red fox Vulpes vulpes, brown hare Lepus europaeus, domestic cat Felis catus, wild cat Felis sylvestris, marmot Marmota marmota, pine marten Martes martes, capercaillie Tetrao urogallus, and badger Meles meles. Lynx fed on an ungulate prey from 1 to 7 days, depending on the prey category. The consumption rates of males, of females alone, and of females with kittens varied from 3.2 to 4.9 kg per night, with an increasing trend as the kittens grew older. Including the days when lynx had no kill (searching time) lynx consumed 2 ± 0.9 kg per night. The mean searching time was 1.5-2 days for females, depending on the season and the number of kittens, and 2.5 days for males. The mean interval between consecutive kills was 5.9 for males and 5.2 days for females, respectively. At 38% of carcasses the presence of one or several scavengers (red fox, raven Corvus corax or both) was detected. Although 69% of the kills were roe deer and only 22% chamois, we hypothesise that in the forests of the Jura Mountains chamois are more vulnerable to lynx predation than roe deer, as chamois had a slightly higher preference index (0.59) than roe deer (0.41), based on rough estimates of the two ungulate populations in the study area.

Étude au cours de l'été sur les pentes du north pole basin, Colorado (3.400 m.)
1- An inverstigation of the behavior and ecology of several contiguous harems of yellow-bellied marmots (Marmota flaviventris) was conducted in an alpine area of North Pole Basin, Gunnison County, Colorado. At an elevation of 3,400m, the study site differed from those of previous marmot studies in that no forest restricted interharem movement or social contact. 2- Meadow vegetation was patchily distributed and covered half sytudy area; clumps of willow comprised most of the remaining vegetation. Eighty two marmot burrows wihin the study area (most of which were unoccupied) were randomly distributed. The 26 most frequently occupied burrows (hibernacula and summer residences) also had a random spatial distribution. 3- Two or more marmots commonly occupied the same hibernacula and summer residence burrows, resulting in highly clumped spatial distribution of marmots. 4- Ecological densities of adult and yearling residents in North Pole Basin were usually higher than densities at East River Valley study sites in the same region (Table 9). 5- In contrast to annual reproduction commonly observed at lower elevations, no alpine female marmot was observed to produce young in consecutive years. 6- Burrow mates were generally much more closely related than nonburrowmate members of the same harem (Table4). 7- The intensity of foraging activity varied thoughout the active season, being low in May, June, and September and very high in July and August (Fig1). Forage ranges of individuals varied in size from 0.1 to 2.2 ha (table5), and were larger in the year of low food availability. The average degrees of forage range exclusivity for each level of social organization were: individual,10%; burrow groups,41%; and harem groups, 88%. 8- Rates of social interaction changed thoughout the active season; agonistic and sexual rates of interactions generally decreased and the amicable interaction rate generally rose between early June and late August (Fig6). 9- Among burrowmates, social interactions were predominantly amicable. But between nonburrowmate members of the same harem and between members of different harems, agonistic interactions predominated. 10- Yearling offspring that remained resident in their natal harem thoughout the summer had predominantly amicable social interations with their parents. Social interaction of these yearling with nonparent adults were primarily agonistic ones in which the yearlings were subordinant. 11- Environmental parameters, population dynamics, resource utilization patterns, and social dynamics were evaluated in terms of their relationships to population density, intraspecific composition, parent offspring relations, and male territoriality.

Increasing concern regarding the stewardship of US Army lands requires a proactive program to evaluate sites of potential risk. Small arms and upland skeet ranges are a potentially significant source of lead exposure for burrowing mammals. Woodchucks (Marmota monax) were evaluated for lead exposure in a previously used upland skeet range and a small arms range, respective to animals collected at two nearby reference locations. Soil lead concentrations collected at burrow entrances on the firing ranges were compared with blood, bone, kidney, liver, and fecal concentrations of woodchucks collected from the reference areas. No statistical differences were found in the lead concentrations in tissue between woodchucks in reference and firing ranges; concentrations of lead in liver and kidney were below detection limits. Levels in bone, blood, and feces suggest the bioavailability of lead at these various sites, although other factors (e.g., differences in foraging areas, age structure, habitat preferences, and environmental conditions) were also likely to influence exposure. Blood levels were below that which suggests toxicity. Further analysis of other ranges with higher lead concentrations and of small mammal species with smaller home ranges is recommended to further elucidate trends that could be extrapolated to other sites.

Mammifères, mammals, marquage olfactif, olfactif marking.
This paper reviews experimental and field studies on scent marking behaviour. The occurrence and effects of scent marking are considered in particular, and a number of areas for further research are made apparent. Marking behaviour in mammals is often stated to be "territorial" or, more specifically, to play a role in territorial defence. In fact there is a shortage of evidence to support this view; many of the relevant observations are anecdotal or interpreted with preconceived notions of function in mind. While marking is clearly associated with aggressive behaviour in many species and may therefore be related in some way to territorial behaviour, its role in aggression is not understood. Moerover, there is evidence to support a number of other theories of function some of which are unrelated to territory. It seems that, as with any other mode of communication, scent marking has become adapted for use in a variety of contexts. It probably has more than one function in any one species and different functions in different species.

An arabinogalactan conjugate containing a 9 kDa fragment of arabinogalactan and adenine-9-beta-D-arabinofuranoside 5'-monophosphate (araAMP), denoted AG(9 kDa)-araAMP, has been synthesized and characterized. In 2.2.15 (human hepatoblastoma) cells, the attachment of araAMP to AG(9 kDa), a ligand of the asialoglycoprotein receptor, decreased the effective concentration for inhibiting extracellular hepatitis B virus (HBV) production by 90% (EC90) from 17 to 0.9 microM adenine arabinoside (araA) equivalents, and increased the cytotoxic concentration (CC50) from 188 to > 17 300 microM araA equivalents. Hence, the selectivity index (CC50/EC90) of araA was improved from 11 (188/17) to >19200 (17 300/0.9) by conjugation with the 9 kDa fragment of arabinogalactan. AG(9 kDa)-araAMP did not affect the production of viral RNA or viral proteins. In the woodchuck hepatitis model, AG(9 kDa)-araAMP inhibited woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) DNA replication at a dose of 0.3 mg of araA equivalents per kg; in this case, AG(9 kDa)-araAMP was 20-30 times more potent than was unconjugated araA. AG(9 kDa)-araAMP was effective by intramuscular or subcutaneous administration. The reduction in HBV DNA levels obtained in 2.2.15 cells and of WHV DNA levels in woodchucks was sustained after treatment with AG(9 kDa)-araAMP ceased. In both cases, viral DNA gradually returned to pre-treatment levels.
