    Control of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis by T cells responding to activated T cells (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1989-05-19
    Description: T cell vaccination against experimental autoimmune disease is herein shown to be mediated in part by anti-ergotypic T cells, T cells that recognize and respond to the state of activation of other T cells. The anti-ergotypic response thus combines with the previously shown anti-idiotypic T cell response to regulate autoimmunity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lohse, A W -- Mor, F -- Karin, N -- Cohen, I R -- NS 23372/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 May 19;244(4906):820-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Weizmann Institute of Science, Department of Cell Biology, Rehovot, Israel.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2471264" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    p53 controls radiation-induced gastrointestinal syndrome in mice independent of apoptosis (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-12-19
    Description: Acute exposure to ionizing radiation can cause lethal damage to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, a condition called the GI syndrome. Whether the target cells affected by radiation to cause the GI syndrome are derived from the epithelium or endothelium and whether the target cells die by apoptosis or other mechanisms are controversial issues. Studying mouse models, we found that selective deletion of the proapoptotic genes Bak1 and Bax from the GI epithelium or from endothelial cells did not protect mice from developing the GI syndrome after sub-total-body gamma irradiation. In contrast, selective deletion of p53 from the GI epithelium, but not from endothelial cells, sensitized irradiated mice to the GI syndrome. Transgenic mice overexpressing p53 in all tissues were protected from the GI syndrome after irradiation. These results suggest that the GI syndrome is caused by the death of GI epithelial cells and that these epithelial cells die by a mechanism that is regulated by p53 but independent of apoptosis.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2897160/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2897160/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kirsch, David G -- Santiago, Philip M -- di Tomaso, Emmanuelle -- Sullivan, Julie M -- Hou, Wu-Shiun -- Dayton, Talya -- Jeffords, Laura B -- Sodha, Pooja -- Mercer, Kim L -- Cohen, Rhianna -- Takeuchi, Osamu -- Korsmeyer, Stanley J -- Bronson, Roderick T -- Kim, Carla F -- Haigis, Kevin M -- Jain, Rakesh K -- Jacks, Tyler -- K08 CA 114176/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- K08 CA114176/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- K08 CA114176-05/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA080124/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA080124-01A1/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA80124/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P30 CA014051/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P30 CA014051-38/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P30 DK043351/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- P30-CA14051/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- RC1 AI078521/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- RC1 AI078521-01/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- RC1-AI078521/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- U19-AI06775/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2010 Jan 29;327(5965):593-6. doi: 10.1126/science.1166202.

    IRE1 signaling affects cell fate during the unfolded protein response (2007)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2007-11-10
    Description: Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress activates a set of signaling pathways, collectively termed the unfolded protein response (UPR). The three UPR branches (IRE1, PERK, and ATF6) promote cell survival by reducing misfolded protein levels. UPR signaling also promotes apoptotic cell death if ER stress is not alleviated. How the UPR integrates its cytoprotective and proapoptotic outputs to select between life or death cell fates is unknown. We found that IRE1 and ATF6 activities were attenuated by persistent ER stress in human cells. By contrast, PERK signaling, including translational inhibition and proapoptotic transcription regulator Chop induction, was maintained. When IRE1 activity was sustained artificially, cell survival was enhanced, suggesting a causal link between the duration of UPR branch signaling and life or death cell fate after ER stress. Key findings from our studies in cell culture were recapitulated in photoreceptors expressing mutant rhodopsin in animal models of retinitis pigmentosa.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3670588/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3670588/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lin, Jonathan H -- Li, Han -- Yasumura, Douglas -- Cohen, Hannah R -- Zhang, Chao -- Panning, Barbara -- Shokat, Kevan M -- Lavail, Matthew M -- Walter, Peter -- K08 EY018313/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- K08 EY018313-01/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY020846/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Nov 9;318(5852):944-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of California at San Francisco, San Francisco, CA 94158, USA.

    Spinal fluid differences in experimental allergic encephalomyelitis and multiple sclerosis (1978)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1978-01-20
    Description: The spinal fluid of sheep with experimental allergic encephalomyelitis contains myelin basic protein (6 to 18 nanograms per milliliter) bound to antibody as well as excess free antibody. This bound myelin basic protein appeared concurrently with the onset of the disease and remained elevated until death. In contrast, in active multiple sclerosis, the spinal fluid contains free myelin basic protein and there are no detectable levels of antibody. The results indicate that the antibodies enter the spinal fluid from the serum by passive diffusion. This mechanism may also explain the presence of viral antibodies in the spinal fluid of multiple sclerosis patients.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gutstein, H S -- Cohen, S R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1978 Jan 20;199(4326):301-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/619457" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Lines of T lymphocytes induce or vaccinate against autoimmune arthritis (1983)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1983-01-07
    Description: The pathophysiology of autoimmune arthritis was studied by selecting and isolating lines of effector T lymphocytes from rats administered an arthritogenic dose of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in complete Freund's adjuvant to induce adjuvant arthritis. Irradiated rats were intravenously inoculated with a cell line characterized by proliferative reactivity to Mycobacterium tuberculosis and, to a lesser degree, to rat collagen type II. This produced arthritis in all the irradiated rats. Nonirradiated recipients failed to develop arthritis. However, such rats, and those recovering from cell-mediated arthritis, were resistant to subsequent attempts to induce adjuvant arthritis. Lines of T lymphocytes selected for responsiveness to other antigens had no effect. Therefore, a line of T lymphocytes responsive to bacteria or to collagen type II could either induce autoimmune arthritis or serve as an agent of vaccination against it.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Holoshitz, J -- Naparstek, Y -- Ben-Nun, A -- Cohen, I R -- NS 18168/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 Jan 7;219(4580):56-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6336851" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Autoantibodies to insulin receptor spontaneously develop as anti-idiotypes in mice immunized with insulin (1982)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1982-04-30
    Description: Mice immunized with insulin developed antibodies to both insulin and the insulin receptor. The antibodies to insulin receptor displaced labeled insulin from insulin receptors and mimicked the actions of insulin in stimulating the oxidation of glucose and its incorporation into lipids, and in inhibiting lipolysis. The antibodies to insulin receptor could be blocked by or bound to the antibodies to insulin, and therefore were identified as anti-idiotypes. Thus, immunization against a hormone may activate spontaneously an idiotype-anti-idiotype network resulting in antibodies to the hormone receptor.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shechter, Y -- Maron, R -- Elias, D -- Cohen, I R -- AM 26766/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1982 Apr 30;216(4545):542-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7041258" 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.

    Mapping patterns of c-fos expression in the central nervous system after seizure (1987)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1987-07-10
    Description: A dramatic and specific induction of c-fos was observed in identifiable neuronal populations in vivo after administration of the convulsant Metrazole. This effect was time- and dose-dependent and was abolished by prior treatment with the anticonvulsant drugs diazepam or pentobarbital. About 60 minutes after administration of Metrazole, c-fos messenger RNA reached a maximum and declined to basal levels after 180 minutes. A further decrease below that in normal brain was observed before a return to basal levels after 16 hours. While Metrazole still elicited seizures during this period, reinduction of c-fos was largely refractory. At 90 minutes, c-fos protein was observed in the nuclei of neurons in the dentate gyrus, and in the pyriform and cingulate cortices. Subsequently, c-fos protein appeared throughout the cortex, hippocampus, and limbic system. Thus, seizure activity results in increased c-fos gene expression in particular subsets of neurons.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Morgan, J I -- Cohen, D R -- Hempstead, J L -- Curran, T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1987 Jul 10;237(4811):192-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3037702" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Anti-idiotypic network induced by T cell vaccination against experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (1988)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1988-01-08
    Description: In a study of the mechanism of resistance to autoimmune disease induced by T cell vaccination, rats were vaccinated against experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) by injecting them once in the hind footpads with a subencephalitogenic dose (10(4)) of a clone of T lymphocytes specific for myelin basic protein (BP). The response to vaccination was assayed by challenging the rats with an encephalitogenic dose (3 X 10(6)) of T lymphocytes of this BP-specific clone. Five to six days after vaccination, the cells responsible for mediating resistance to adoptively transferred EAE were concentrated in the popliteal lymph nodes draining the vaccination site. Transfer of the draining lymph node cells to unvaccinated rats led to loss of resistance in the donor rats and acquisition of resistance by the recipient rats. Limiting-dilution cultures of the draining lymph node cells were established with irradiated cells of the BP-specific clone as stimulators. Two sets of T lymphocytes specifically responsive to the BP-specific T cells from the clone were isolated: CD4+CD8- helper and CD4-CD8+ suppressor cells. The helper T cells, like the BP antigen, specifically stimulated the BP-specific vaccinating clone. In contrast, the suppressor T cells specifically suppressed the response of the BP-specific vaccinating clone to its BP antigen. These results suggest that T cell vaccination induces resistance to autoimmune disease by activating an antiidiotypic network.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lider, O -- Reshef, T -- Beraud, E -- Ben-Nun, A -- Cohen, I R -- AM32192/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- NS23372/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1988 Jan 8;239(4836):181-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cell Biology, Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot, Israel.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2447648" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
