    Peripheral selection of the T cell repertoire (1991)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1991-03-08
    Description: T lymphocytes undergo selection events not only in the thymus, but also after they leave the thymus and reside in the periphery. Peripheral selection was found to be dependent on T cell receptor (TCR)-ligand interactions but to differ from thymic selection with regard to specificity and mechanism. Unlike thymic selection, peripheral selection required binding of antigen to the TCR, and it induced expansion of T cell clones. Tolerance to self antigens that are restricted to the periphery occurred through the elimination of self-reactive T cells and by the clonal anergy, which was associated with down-regulation of the alpha beta TCR and CD8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rocha, B -- von Boehmer, H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1991 Mar 8;251(4998):1225-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Unite INSERM U-25 CNRS UA-122, Hopital Necker, Paris, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1900951" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Self-nonself discrimination by T cells (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1990-06-15
    Description: The alpha beta T cell receptor (TCR) recognizes antigens that are presented by major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-encoded cell surface molecules by binding to both the antigen and the MHC molecules. Discrimination of self from nonself antigens and MHC molecules is achieved by negative and positive selection of T cells in the thymus: potentially harmful T cells with receptors that bind to self antigens plus self MHC molecules are deleted before they can mount immune responses. In contrast, the maturation of useful T cells with receptors that bind foreign antigens plus self MHC molecules requires the binding of their receptor to MHC molecules on thymic epithelium in the absence of foreign antigen. The binding of the TCR to either class I or class II MHC molecules directs differentiation of the selected cells into either CD4-8+ (killer) or CD4+8- (helper) T cells, respectively.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉von Boehmer, H -- Kisielow, P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jun 15;248(4961):1369-73.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Basel Institute for Immunology, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1972594" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Hypoxic dilation of coronary arteries is mediated by ATP-sensitive potassium channels (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1990-03-16
    Description: The function of the heart depends critically on an adequate oxygen supply through the coronary arteries. Coronary arteries dilate when the intravascular oxygen tension decreases. Hypoxic vasodilation in isolated, perfused guinea pig hearts can be prevented by glibenclamide, a blocker of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-sensitive potassium channels, and can be mimicked by cromakalim, which opens ATP-sensitive potassium channels. Opening of potassium channels in coronary smooth muscle cells and the subsequent drop in intracellular calcium is probably the major cause of hypoxic and ischemic vasodilation in the mammalian heart.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Daut, J -- Maier-Rudolph, W -- von Beckerath, N -- Mehrke, G -- Gunther, K -- Goedel-Meinen, L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Mar 16;247(4948):1341-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Physiologisches Institut der Technischen Universitat Munchen, Biedersteiner, Federal Republic of Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2107575" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A Ca-dependent early step in the release of catecholamines from adrenal chromaffin cells (1993)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1993-11-12
    Description: Intense stimuli, such as trains of depolarizing pulses or the caffeine-induced release of calcium from intracellular stores, readily depress the secretory response in neuroendocrine cells. Secretory responses are restored by rest periods of minutes in duration. This recovery was accelerated when the concentration of cytosolic calcium was moderately increased and probably resulted from calcium-dependent replenishment of a pool of release-ready granules. Continuously increased concentrations of calcium led the over-filling of such a pool. Subsequently, secretory responses to stronger calcium stimuli were augmented. Hormone-induced calcium transients with a plateau phase of increased concentration of calcium may enhance the secretory response in this way.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉von Ruden, L -- Neher, E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Nov 12;262(5136):1061-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Membrane Biophysics, Max-Planck-Institut fur biophysikalische Chemie, Gottingen, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8235626" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Molecular evidence that the myxozoan protists are metazoans (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-09-16
    Description: The evolutionary origins of the protistan phylum, Myxozoa, have long been questioned. Although these obligate parasites are like protozoans in many features, several aspects of their ontogeny and morphology have implied a closer relationship to metazoan lineages. Phylogenetic analyses of 18S ribosomal RNA sequences from myxozoans and other eukaryotes, with the use of parsimony, distance, and maximum-likelihood methods, support the hypothesis that myxozoans are closely related to the bilateral animals. These results suggest that the Myxozoa, long considered an assemblage of protozoans, should be considered a metazoan phylum.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Smothers, J F -- von Dohlen, C D -- Smith, L H Jr -- Spall, R D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Sep 16;265(5179):1719-21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Sciences, Idaho State University, Pocatello 83209.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8085160" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    MHC class I expression in mice lacking the proteasome subunit LMP-7 (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-08-26
    Description: Proteasomes degrade endogenous proteins. Two subunits, LMP-2 and LMP-7, are encoded in a region of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) that is critical for class I-restricted antigen presentation. Mice with a targeted deletion of the gene encoding LMP-7 have reduced levels of MHC class I cell-surface expression and present the endogenous antigen HY inefficiently; addition of peptides to splenocytes deficient in LMP-7 restores wild-type class I expression levels. This demonstrates the involvement of LMP-7 in the MHC class I presentation pathway and suggests that LMP-7 functions as an integral part of the peptide supply machinery.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fehling, H J -- Swat, W -- Laplace, C -- Kuhn, R -- Rajewsky, K -- Muller, U -- von Boehmer, H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Aug 26;265(5176):1234-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Basel Institute for Immunology, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8066463" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Autoproteolysis in hedgehog protein biogenesis (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-02
    Description: Extracellular signaling proteins encoded by the hedgehog (hh) multigene family are responsible for the patterning of a variety of embryonic structures in vertebrates and invertebrates. The Drosophila hh gene has now been shown to generate two predominant protein species that are derived by an internal autoproteolytic cleavage of a larger precursor. Mutations that reduced the efficiency of autoproteolysis in vitro diminished precursor cleavage in vivo and also impaired the signaling and patterning activities of the HH protein. The two HH protein species exhibited distinctive biochemical properties and tissue distribution, and these differences suggest a mechanism that could account for the long- and short-range signaling activities of HH in vivo.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lee, J J -- Ekker, S C -- von Kessler, D P -- Porter, J A -- Sun, B I -- Beachy, P A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Dec 2;266(5190):1528-37.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7985023" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Analysis and expression of a cloned pre-T cell receptor gene (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-11-18
    Description: The T cell antigen receptor (TCR) beta chain regulates early T cell development in the absence of the TCR alpha chain. The developmentally controlled gene described here encodes the pre-TCR alpha (pT alpha) chain, which covalently associates with TCR beta and with the CD3 proteins forms a pre-TCR complex that transduces signals in immature thymocytes. Unlike the lambda 5 pre-B cell receptor protein, the pT alpha chain is a type I transmembrane protein whose cytoplasmic tail contains two potential phosphorylation sites and a Src homology 3 (SH3)-domain binding sequence. Pre-TCR alpha transfection experiments indicated that surface expression of the pre-TCR is controlled by additional developmentally regulated proteins. Identification of the pT alpha gene represents an essential step in the structure-function analysis of the pre-TCR complex.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Saint-Ruf, C -- Ungewiss, K -- Groettrup, M -- Bruno, L -- Fehling, H J -- von Boehmer, H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Nov 18;266(5188):1208-12.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Unite INSERM 373, Institut Necker, Paris, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7973703" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Footprinting the sites of interaction of antibiotics with catalytic group I intron RNA (1993)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1993-06-04
    Description: Aminoglycoside inhibitors of translation have been shown previously to inhibit in vitro self-splicing by group I introns. Chemical probing of the phage T4-derived sunY intron shows that neomycin, streptomycin, and related antibiotics protected the N-7 position of G96, a universally conserved guanine in the binding site for the guanosine cofactor in the splicing reaction. The antibiotics also disrupted structural contacts that have been proposed to bring the 5' cleavage site of the intron into proximity to the catalytic core. In contrast, the strictly competitive inhibitors deoxyguanosine and arginine protected only the N-7 position of G96. Parallels between these results and previously observed protection of 16S ribosomal RNA by aminoglycosides raise the possibility that group I intron splicing and transfer RNA selection by ribosomes involve similar RNA structural motifs.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉von Ahsen, U -- Noller, H F -- GM17129/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Jun 4;260(5113):1500-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Sinsheimer Laboratories, University of California, Santa Cruz 95064.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8502993" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
