    Description: The paucity of virus-laden CD4+ cells in individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) contrasts with the greatly reduced numbers and function of these lymphocytes. A pathway is described whereby dendritic cells carry HIV-1 to uninfected T cells, amplifying the cytopathic effects of small amounts of virus. After exposure to HIV-1, dendritic cells continue to present superantigens and antigens, forming clusters with T cells that are driven to replicate. Infection of the dendritic cells cannot be detected, but the clustered T cells form syncytia, release virions, and die. Carriage of HIV-1 by dendritic cells may facilitate the lysis and loss of antigen specific CD4+ T cells in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cameron, P U -- Freudenthal, P S -- Barker, J M -- Gezelter, S -- Inaba, K -- Steinman, R M -- AI 24775/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- MOI-RR00102/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1992 Jul 17;257(5068):383-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory for Cellular Physiology and Immunology, Rockefeller University, New York, NY 10021.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1352913" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: An argument is proposed to explain the origin of large metazoans, based on the regulatory processes that underlie the morphogenetic organization of pattern in modern animals. Genetic regulatory systems similar to those used in modern, indirectly developing marine invertebrates are considered to indicate the Precambrian regulatory platform on which were erected innovations that underlie the development of macroscopic body plans. Those systems are genetic regulatory programs that produce groups of unspecified "set-aside cells" and hierarchical regulatory programs that initially define regions of morphogenetic space in terms of domains of transcription factor expression. These ideas affect interpretation of the development of arthropods and chordates as well as interpretation of the role of the genes of the homeotic complex in embryogenesis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Davidson, E H -- Peterson, K J -- Cameron, R A -- HD-05753/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- RR-06591/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1995 Nov 24;270(5240):1319-25.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Biology, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena 91125, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7481819" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Retinoids have a broad spectrum of biological activities and are useful therapeutic agents. Their physiological activities are mediated by two types of receptors, the retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and the retinoid X receptors (RXRs). RARs, as well as several related receptors, require heterodimerization with RXRs for effective DNA binding and function. However, in the presence of 9-cis-retinoic acid, a ligand for both RARs and RXRs, RXRs can also form homodimers. A series of retinoids is reported that selectively activates RXR homodimers but does not affect RAR-RXR heterodimers and thus demonstrates that both retinoid response pathways can be independently activated.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lehmann, J M -- Jong, L -- Fanjul, A -- Cameron, J F -- Lu, X P -- Haefner, P -- Dawson, M I -- Pfahl, M -- CA50676/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA51993/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1992 Dec 18;258(5090):1944-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cancer Center, La Jolla Cancer Research Foundation, La Jolla, CA 92037.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1335166" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
