    Notes: Leighton tubes containing monolayers of human embryonic lung cells were inoculated with 70,000 or 30,000 sporozoites of the viperid coccidium Caryospora simplex and examined at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18 days post-inoculation (PI). By day 1 PI, sporozoites had penetrated cells and were within parasitophorous vacuoles. Most sporozoites became spherical and then underwent karyokinesis several times between days 2 and 6 PI. Mature Type I meronts were found on days 6–16 PI and contained 8 to 22 short, stout merozoites. Mature Type II meronts were present on days 10–18 PI and contained 8 to 22 long, slender merozoites. Developing gamonts (undifferentiated sexual stages) were observed on days 14 and 16 PI. Mature micro- and macrogametes and thin-walled unsporulated oocysts were present on days 16 and 18 PI. Attempts to sporulate oocysts in tissue culture medium or in a 2.5% (w/v) aqueous solution of K2Cr2O7 at 25/°C and 37°C were unsuccessful; only a few oocysts developed to the contracted sporont stage. Four Swiss-Webster mice injected intraperitoneally with merozoites obtained from Leighton tubes on day 10 PI did not acquire infections. This is the second coccidium reported to complete its entire development, from sporozoite to oocyst, in cell culture.

    The long-term steady motion of Saturn's Hexagon and the stability of its enclosed jet-stream under seasonal changes (2014)
    Wiley
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-15
    Description: [1]  We investigate the long-term motion of Saturn's North-Pole Hexagon and the structure of its associated eastward jet, using Cassini ISS and ground-based images from 2008 to 2014. We show that both are persistent features that have survived the long polar night, the jet profile remaining essentially unchanged. During those years the hexagon vertices showed a steady rotation period of 10 hr 39 min 23.01 ± 0.01 s. Analysis of Voyager 1 and 2 (1980-1981) and HST and ground-based (1990-91) images shows a period shorter by 3.5 s, due to the presence at the time of a large anticyclone. We interpret the hexagon as a manifestation of a vertically trapped Rossby wave on the polar jet and, because of their survival and unchanged properties under the strong seasonal variations in insolation, we propose that both hexagon and jet are deep-rooted atmospheric features that could reveal the true rotation of the planet Saturn.

    A genetically humanized mouse model for hepatitis C virus infection (2011)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)

    Publication Date: 2011-06-10
    Description: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) remains a major medical problem. Antiviral treatment is only partially effective and a vaccine does not exist. Development of more effective therapies has been hampered by the lack of a suitable small animal model. Although xenotransplantation of immunodeficient mice with human hepatocytes has shown promise, these models are subject to important challenges. Building on the previous observation that CD81 and occludin comprise the minimal human factors required to render mouse cells permissive to HCV entry in vitro, we attempted murine humanization via a genetic approach. Here we show that expression of two human genes is sufficient to allow HCV infection of fully immunocompetent inbred mice. We establish a precedent for applying mouse genetics to dissect viral entry and validate the role of scavenger receptor type B class I for HCV uptake. We demonstrate that HCV can be blocked by passive immunization, as well as showing that a recombinant vaccinia virus vector induces humoral immunity and confers partial protection against heterologous challenge. This system recapitulates a portion of the HCV life cycle in an immunocompetent rodent for the first time, opening opportunities for studying viral pathogenesis and immunity and comprising an effective platform for testing HCV entry inhibitors in vivo.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3159410/" 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/PMC3159410/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dorner, Marcus -- Horwitz, Joshua A -- Robbins, Justin B -- Barry, Walter T -- Feng, Qian -- Mu, Kathy -- Jones, Christopher T -- Schoggins, John W -- Catanese, Maria Teresa -- Burton, Dennis R -- Law, Mansun -- Rice, Charles M -- Ploss, Alexander -- F32DK081193/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- F32DK082155/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI071084/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI071084-04/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI072613/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI072613-05/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI079031/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI079031-04/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK085713/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 DK085713-03/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01AI071084/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01AI072613/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01AI079031/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- RC1 DK087193/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- RC1 DK087193-02/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- RC1DK087193/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2011 Jun 8;474(7350):208-11. doi: 10.1038/nature10168.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Center for the Study of Hepatitis C, The Rockefeller University, New York, New York 10065, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21654804" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Effect of the nature of the substrate on the surface chemistry of atomic layer deposition precursors (2016)
    American Institute of Physics (AIP)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-11-02
    Description: The thermal chemistry of Cu(I)-sec-butyl-2-iminopyrrolidinate, a promising copper amidinate complex for atomic layer deposition (ALD) applications, was explored comparatively on several surfaces by using a combination of surface-sensitive techniques, specifically temperature-programmed desorption and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The substrates explored include single crystals of transition metals (Ni(110) and Cu(110)), thin oxide films (NiO/Ni(110) and SiO 2 /Ta), and oxygen-treated metals (O/Cu(110)). Decomposition of the pyrrolidinate ligand leads to the desorption of several gas-phase products, including CH 3 CN, HCN and butene from the metals and CO and CO 2 from the oxygen-containing surfaces. In all cases dehydrogenation of the organic moieties is accompanied by hydrogen removal from the surface, in the form of H 2 on metals and mainly as water from the metal oxides, but the threshold for this chemistry varies wildly, from 270 K on Ni(110) to 430 K on O/Cu(110), 470 K on Cu(110), 500 K on NiO/Ni(110), and 570 K on SiO 2 /Ta. Copper reduction is also observed in both the Cu 2p 3/2 XPS and the Cu L 3 VV Auger (AES) spectra, reaching completion by 300 K on Ni(110) but occurring only between 500 and 600 K on Cu(110). On NiO/Ni(110), both Cu(I) and Cu(0) coexist between 200 and 500 K, and on SiO 2 /Ta a change happens between 500 and 600 K but the reduction is limited, with the copper atoms retaining a significant ionic character. Additional experiments to test adsorption at higher temperatures led to the identification of temperature windows for the self-limiting precursor uptake required for ALD between approximately 300 and 450 K on both Ni(110) and NiO/Ni(110); the range on SiO 2 had been previously determined to be wider, reaching an upper limit at about 500 K. Finally, deposition of copper metal films via ALD cycles with O 2 as the co-reactant was successfully accomplished on the Ni(110) substrate.

    Response and resistance to BET bromodomain inhibitors in triple-negative breast cancer (2016)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-01-07
    Description: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous and clinically aggressive disease for which there is no targeted therapy. BET bromodomain inhibitors, which have shown efficacy in several models of cancer, have not been evaluated in TNBC. These inhibitors displace BET bromodomain proteins such as BRD4 from chromatin by competing with their acetyl-lysine recognition modules, leading to inhibition of oncogenic transcriptional programs. Here we report the preferential sensitivity of TNBCs to BET bromodomain inhibition in vitro and in vivo, establishing a rationale for clinical investigation and further motivation to understand mechanisms of resistance. In paired cell lines selected for acquired resistance to BET inhibition from previously sensitive TNBCs, we failed to identify gatekeeper mutations, new driver events or drug pump activation. BET-resistant TNBC cells remain dependent on wild-type BRD4, which supports transcription and cell proliferation in a bromodomain-independent manner. Proteomic studies of resistant TNBC identify strong association with MED1 and hyper-phosphorylation of BRD4 attributable to decreased activity of PP2A, identified here as a principal BRD4 serine phosphatase. Together, these studies provide a rationale for BET inhibition in TNBC and present mechanism-based combination strategies to anticipate clinical drug resistance.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shu, Shaokun -- Lin, Charles Y -- He, Housheng Hansen -- Witwicki, Robert M -- Tabassum, Doris P -- Roberts, Justin M -- Janiszewska, Michalina -- Huh, Sung Jin -- Liang, Yi -- Ryan, Jeremy -- Doherty, Ernest -- Mohammed, Hisham -- Guo, Hao -- Stover, Daniel G -- Ekram, Muhammad B -- Peluffo, Guillermo -- Brown, Jonathan -- D'Santos, Clive -- Krop, Ian E -- Dillon, Deborah -- McKeown, Michael -- Ott, Christopher -- Qi, Jun -- Ni, Min -- Rao, Prakash K -- Duarte, Melissa -- Wu, Shwu-Yuan -- Chiang, Cheng-Ming -- Anders, Lars -- Young, Richard A -- Winer, Eric P -- Letai, Antony -- Barry, William T -- Carroll, Jason S -- Long, Henry W -- Brown, Myles -- Liu, X Shirley -- Meyer, Clifford A -- Bradner, James E -- Polyak, Kornelia -- CA080111/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA103867/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA120184/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA168504/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P50 CA168504/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA103867/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2016 Jan 21;529(7586):413-7. doi: 10.1038/nature16508.

    The Impact of Mutation and Gene Conversion on the Local Diversification of Antigen Genes in African Trypanosomes (2012)
    Oxford University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-10-17
    Description: Patterns of genetic diversity in parasite antigen gene families hold important information about their potential to generate antigenic variation within and between hosts. The evolution of such gene families is typically driven by gene duplication, followed by point mutation and gene conversion. There is great interest in estimating the rates of these processes from molecular sequences for understanding the evolution of the pathogen and its significance for infection processes. In this study, a series of models are constructed to investigate hypotheses about the nucleotide diversity patterns between closely related gene sequences from the antigen gene archive of the African trypanosome, the protozoan parasite causative of human sleeping sickness in Equatorial Africa. We use a hidden Markov model approach to identify two scales of diversification: clustering of sequence mismatches, a putative indicator of gene conversion events with other lower-identity donor genes in the archive, and at a sparser scale, isolated mismatches, likely arising from independent point mutations. In addition to quantifying the respective probabilities of occurrence of these two processes, our approach yields estimates for the gene conversion tract length distribution and the average diversity contributed locally by conversion events. Model fitting is conducted using a Bayesian framework. We find that diversifying gene conversion events with lower-identity partners occur at least five times less frequently than point mutations on variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) pairs, and the average imported conversion tract is between 14 and 25 nucleotides long. However, because of the high diversity introduced by gene conversion, the two processes have almost equal impact on the per-nucleotide rate of sequence diversification between VSG subfamily members. We are able to disentangle the most likely locations of point mutations and conversions on each aligned gene pair.
