    Notes: Abstract Mineral-containing bone particles (BPs) were implanted intramuscularly into rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) to investigate the sequence of appearance of bone-resorbing cells. A fibrous substance first surrounded the implanted BPs and was gradually replaced by connective tissue containing capillaries. Two weeks after BP implantation, relatively small multinucleated cells (type-1 cells), whose cytoplasm stained deeply with hematoxylin, appeared along the surfaces of the BPs. At later stages (after 4–8 weeks), the majority of cells which appeared to be resorbing the BPs were multinucleated cells whose cytoplasm stained deeply with eosin (type-2 cells). Type-2 cells contained more nuclei than type-1 cells. Electron-microscopical observations revealed that type-2 cells had the characteristic features of osteoclasts: the presence of numerous mitochondria, vacuoles and granules, and a differentiation of the cell membrane and cytoplasm into a ruffled border and clear zone, respectively. A tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase activity, which is an established characteristic of osteoclasts in terrestrial vertebrates, but which had not previously been examined in teleosts, was demonstrated histochemically in the type-2 cells. Development of type-2 cells was closely correlated with the development of connective tissue. These findings suggest that the development of a capillary network around the implanted BPs enables circulating osteoclast-progenitors to reach the surface of the BPs.

    Description: A lymphocyte subpopulation, the Valpha14 natural killer T (NKT) cells, expresses both NK1.1 and a single invariant T cell receptor encoded by the Valpha14 and Jalpha281 gene segments. Mice with a deletion of the Jalpha281 gene segment were found to exclusively lack this subpopulation. The Valpha14 NKT cell-deficient mice could no longer mediate the interleukin-12 (IL-12)-induced rejection of tumors. Although the antitumor effect of IL-12 was thought to be mediated through natural killer cells and T cells, Valpha14 NKT cells were found to be an essential target of IL-12, and they mediated their cytotoxicity by an NK-like effector mechanism after activation with IL-12.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cui, J -- Shin, T -- Kawano, T -- Sato, H -- Kondo, E -- Toura, I -- Kaneko, Y -- Koseki, H -- Kanno, M -- Taniguchi, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Nov 28;278(5343):1623-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Core Research for Evolutional Science and Technology (CREST) Project, Japan Science and Technology Corporation (JST), 1-8-1 Inohana, Chuo-ku, Chiba, Japan 260.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9374462" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Natural killer T (NKT) lymphocytes express an invariant T cell antigen receptor (TCR) encoded by the Valpha14 and Jalpha281 gene segments. A glycosylceramide-containing alpha-anomeric sugar with a longer fatty acyl chain (C26) and sphingosine base (C18) was identified as a ligand for this TCR. Glycosylceramide-mediated proliferative responses of Valpha14 NKT cells were abrogated by treatment with chloroquine-concanamycin A or by monoclonal antibodies against CD1d/Vbeta8, CD40/CD40L, or B7/CTLA-4/CD28, but not by interference with the function of a transporter-associated protein. Thus, this lymphocyte shares distinct recognition systems with either T or NK cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kawano, T -- Cui, J -- Koezuka, Y -- Toura, I -- Kaneko, Y -- Motoki, K -- Ueno, H -- Nakagawa, R -- Sato, H -- Kondo, E -- Koseki, H -- Taniguchi, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Nov 28;278(5343):1626-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉CREST (Core Research for Evolutional Science and Technology) Project, Japan Science and Technology Corporation (JST), 1-8-1 Inohana, Chuo, Chiba 260, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9374463" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
