    HEART DEVELOPMENT. Integration of Bmp and Wnt signaling by Hopx specifies commitment of cardiomyoblasts (2015)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-06-27
    Description: Cardiac progenitor cells are multipotent and give rise to cardiac endothelium, smooth muscle, and cardiomyocytes. Here, we define and characterize the cardiomyoblast intermediate that is committed to the cardiomyocyte fate, and we characterize the niche signals that regulate commitment. Cardiomyoblasts express Hopx, which functions to coordinate local Bmp signals to inhibit the Wnt pathway, thus promoting cardiomyogenesis. Hopx integrates Bmp and Wnt signaling by physically interacting with activated Smads and repressing Wnt genes. The identification of the committed cardiomyoblast that retains proliferative potential will inform cardiac regenerative therapeutics. In addition, Bmp signals characterize adult stem cell niches in other tissues where Hopx-mediated inhibition of Wnt is likely to contribute to stem cell quiescence and to explain the role of Hopx as a tumor suppressor.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jain, Rajan -- Li, Deqiang -- Gupta, Mudit -- Manderfield, Lauren J -- Ifkovits, Jamie L -- Wang, Qiaohong -- Liu, Feiyan -- Liu, Ying -- Poleshko, Andrey -- Padmanabhan, Arun -- Raum, Jeffrey C -- Li, Li -- Morrisey, Edward E -- Lu, Min Min -- Won, Kyoung-Jae -- Epstein, Jonathan A -- 5-T32-GM-007170/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- K08 HL119553/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- K08 HL119553-02/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL071546/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- U01 HL100405/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2015 Jun 26;348(6242):aaa6071. doi: 10.1126/science.aaa6071.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell and Developmental Biology, Penn Cardiovascular Institute, Institute of Regenerative Medicine, Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA. ; Department of Genetics, Institute for Diabetes, Obesity, and Metabolism, Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA. ; Department of Cell and Developmental Biology, Penn Cardiovascular Institute, Institute of Regenerative Medicine, Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA. epsteinj@upenn.edu.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26113728" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Polyene toxicity in renal medulla: injury mediated by transport activity (1984)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1984-04-06
    Description: Polyene antibiotics such as amphotericin and nystatin increase membrane permeability and thus increase the amount of oxygen consumed in active electrolyte transport. In isolated perfused rat kidneys, the polyenes produced extensive injury to the medullary thick ascending limb, a segment of the nephron with limited oxygen supply. This damage was prevented if reabsorptive transport was inhibited by ouabain. Cell death under these circumstances thus appears to be mediated by increased oxygen demand for transport activity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Brezis, M -- Rosen, S -- Silva, P -- Spokes, K -- Epstein, F H -- AM18078/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Apr 6;224(4644):66-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6322305" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Role of nitrogen dioxide in the biosynthesis of nitraosamines in mice (1980)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1980-03-28
    Description: Groups of three to four mice were gavaged with aqueous solutions of 2 milligrams of morpholine, after which they were exposed to nitrogen dioxide in inhalation chambers at concentrations of 0.2 to 50 parts per million for up to 4 hours. At sequential intervals during the exposure, mice were frozen and pulverized in liquid nitrogen, and the mice powder was extracted with ice-cold 35 percent aqueous methanol and dichloromethane; organic-phase concentrates were analyzed for N-nitrosomorpholine with a thermal energy analyzer interfaced to a gas chromatograph. The N-nitrosomorpholine yields, ranging up to about 2.3 micrograms per mouse, were time-dependent relative to the duration of exposure to nitrogen dioxide and dose-dependent relative to the concentrations of nitrogen dioxide; control levels (in mice that were gavaged with morpholine or distilled water and then exposed to air instead of nitrogen dioxide) were less than 5 nanograms per mouse. These preliminary studies demonstrate the in vivo nitrosating potential of nitrogen oxides.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Iqbal, Z M -- Dahl, K -- Epstein, S S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1980 Mar 28;207(4438):1475-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7361099" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A new antibiotic kills pathogens without detectable resistance (2015)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-01-07
    Description: Antibiotic resistance is spreading faster than the introduction of new compounds into clinical practice, causing a public health crisis. Most antibiotics were produced by screening soil microorganisms, but this limited resource of cultivable bacteria was overmined by the 1960s. Synthetic approaches to produce antibiotics have been unable to replace this platform. Uncultured bacteria make up approximately 99% of all species in external environments, and are an untapped source of new antibiotics. We developed several methods to grow uncultured organisms by cultivation in situ or by using specific growth factors. Here we report a new antibiotic that we term teixobactin, discovered in a screen of uncultured bacteria. Teixobactin inhibits cell wall synthesis by binding to a highly conserved motif of lipid II (precursor of peptidoglycan) and lipid III (precursor of cell wall teichoic acid). We did not obtain any mutants of Staphylococcus aureus or Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistant to teixobactin. The properties of this compound suggest a path towards developing antibiotics that are likely to avoid development of resistance.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ling, Losee L -- Schneider, Tanja -- Peoples, Aaron J -- Spoering, Amy L -- Engels, Ina -- Conlon, Brian P -- Mueller, Anna -- Schaberle, Till F -- Hughes, Dallas E -- Epstein, Slava -- Jones, Michael -- Lazarides, Linos -- Steadman, Victoria A -- Cohen, Douglas R -- Felix, Cintia R -- Fetterman, K Ashley -- Millett, William P -- Nitti, Anthony G -- Zullo, Ashley M -- Chen, Chao -- Lewis, Kim -- AI085612/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- T-RO1AI085585/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2015 Jan 22;517(7535):455-9. doi: 10.1038/nature14098.

    Effects of an anti-G suit on the hemodynamic and renal responses to positive /+Gz/ acceleration (1974)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The effects of the currently used U.S. Air Force (CSU-12/P) anti-G suit on renal function during positive radial acceleration (+Gz) were assessed in seven normal male subjects in balance on a 200 meq sodium diet. Following suit inflation in the seated position, +2.0 Gz for 30 min resulted in a decrease in the rate of sodium excretion from 125 plus or minus 19 to 60 plus or minus 14 microeq/min, which persisted during a 25-min recovery period. Fractional excretion of sodium also decreased significantly during +Gz. The magnitude of the antinatriuresis was indistinguishable from that observed during +Gz without suit inflation. In contrast to the antinatriuresis observed during centrifugation without suit, however, the antinatriuresis with suit was mediated primarily by an enhanced tubular reabsorption of sodium.

    Effects of positive acceleration /+Gz/ on renal function and plasma renin in normal man (1974)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The effects of positive radial centrifugation (+Gz) on plasma resin activity (PRA) and renal function were assessed in 15 normal male subjects under carefully controlled conditions of Na, K, and water intake. Twenty minutes of +2.0 Gz resulted in significant decreases in the mean rate of sodium excretion and creatine clearance and in a doubling of PRA in seven sodium-depleted subjects (10 meq Na intake). In eight sodium-replete subjects (200 mq Na intake), 30 min of +2.0 Gz was also associated with a decrease in the mean rate of sodium excretion. As a consequence of a concurrent decrease in creatine clearance, the fractional excretion of sodium during centrifugation did not differ from control, suggesting that the changes in Na excretion were mediated primarily by renal hemodynamic factors, although enhanced renal tubular sodium reabsorption may also have played a role.

    Kinetics of nucleic acid-large ligand interactions: Multiplet-closure approximations and matrix-iteration techniques (1981)

    Notes: Approximate methods are developed and evaluated for treating the rate of binding ligands that cover several contiguous sites to a homogeneous one-dimensional lattice, which represents a nucleic acid or other linear biopolymer. The model requires as input only the number of lattice sites necessary for binding, the total number (possibly infinite) of lattice sites, and elementary rate constants for the cooperative and noncooperative association and dissociation of the ligand on the lattice. The computational methods employed are an extension of the triplet closure approximation from the helix-coil (single-site ligand) problem to the large ligand binding problem. It is found that consideration of clusters of n + 2 lattice sites, where each ligand covers n sites, gives a surprisingly accurate description of the kinetics. The approximation is implemented by an extension of the matrix-iteration approach proposed by Craig and Crothers. The effects of the finite lattice length, as well as the capability to treat ligand motion along the lattice, are incorporated. When all symmetries are taken into consideration, the time required for the matrix iteration calculation rises only linearly with the ligand length n and is considerably less than that of the Monte Carlo method, which is used as a standard for comparison.

    Kinetics of irreversible dissociation for proteins bound cooperatively to DNA (1984)

    Notes: We consider the irreversible dissociation kinetics of proteins that bind cooperatively and nonspecifically to DNA. Our model consists of an infinitely long one-dimensional nucleic acid lattice on which are bound protein ligands. A set of adjacent bound proteins forms a cluster of length n. A protein molecule may dissociate from any site within the bound cluster, not only from the ends, as was assumed in a previous model of this process due to Lohman [(1983) Biopolymers 22, 1697-1713]. By considering this additional pathway, we present a more general treatment of the dissociation kinetics of cooperatively bound ligands. We show that dissociation from the (n-2) internal positions of an n-cluster is an important pathway when the initial fractional saturation of the lattice is close to unity and the co operatively is low. When the fractional saturation is initially equal to 1 and the co operatively is low, our model does not give the zero-order dissociation kinetics predicted by the Lohman model.
