    Description: CD95 (also called Fas and APO-1) is a prototypical death receptor that regulates tissue homeostasis mainly in the immune system through the induction of apoptosis. During cancer progression CD95 is frequently downregulated or cells are rendered apoptosis resistant, raising the possibility that loss of CD95 is part of a mechanism for tumour evasion. However, complete loss of CD95 is rarely seen in human cancers and many cancer cells express large quantities of CD95 and are highly sensitive to CD95-mediated apoptosis in vitro. Furthermore, cancer patients frequently have elevated levels of the physiological ligand for CD95, CD95L. These data raise the possibility that CD95 could actually promote the growth of tumours through its non-apoptotic activities. Here we show that cancer cells in general, regardless of their CD95 apoptosis sensitivity, depend on constitutive activity of CD95, stimulated by cancer-produced CD95L, for optimal growth. Consistently, loss of CD95 in mouse models of ovarian cancer and liver cancer reduces cancer incidence as well as the size of the tumours. The tumorigenic activity of CD95 is mediated by a pathway involving JNK and Jun. These results demonstrate that CD95 has a growth-promoting role during tumorigenesis and indicate that efforts to inhibit its activity rather than to enhance it should be considered during cancer therapy.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2879093/" 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/PMC2879093/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chen, Lina -- Park, Sun-Mi -- Tumanov, Alexei V -- Hau, Annika -- Sawada, Kenjiro -- Feig, Christine -- Turner, Jerrold R -- Fu, Yang-Xin -- Romero, Iris L -- Lengyel, Ernst -- Peter, Marcus E -- CA112240/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- K12 HD000849/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- L30 CA153336/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA095319/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA11182/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA112240/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA112240-01A1/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA112240-02/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA112240-03/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA112240-04/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA112240-05/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2010 May 27;465(7297):492-6. doi: 10.1038/nature09075.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉The Ben May Department for Cancer Research, The University of Chicago, 924 E 57th Street, Chicago, Illinois 60637, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20505730" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: It is generally reasoned that lethal infections caused by opportunistic pathogens develop permissively by invading a host that is both physiologically stressed and immunologically compromised. However, an alternative hypothesis might be that opportunistic pathogens actively sense alterations in host immune function and respond by enhancing their virulence phenotype. We demonstrate that interferon-gamma binds to an outer membrane protein in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, OprF, resulting in the expression of a quorum-sensing dependent virulence determinant, the PA-I lectin. These observations provide details of the mechanisms by which prokaryotic organisms are directly signaled by immune activation in their eukaryotic host.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wu, Licheng -- Estrada, Oscar -- Zaborina, Olga -- Bains, Manjeet -- Shen, Le -- Kohler, Jonathan E -- Patel, Nachiket -- Musch, Mark W -- Chang, Eugene B -- Fu, Yang-Xin -- Jacobs, Michael A -- Nishimura, Michael I -- Hancock, Robert E W -- Turner, Jerrold R -- Alverdy, John C -- 2-RO1 GM062344-05/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- DK-38510/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK-47722/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01DK61931/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01DK68271/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 Jul 29;309(5735):774-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Surgery, University of Chicago, Pritzker School of Medicine, Chicago, IL 60637, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16051797" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The circuitry and function of mammalian visual cortex are shaped by patterns of visual stimuli, a plasticity likely mediated by synaptic modifications. In the adult cat, asynchronous visual stimuli in two adjacent retinal regions controlled the relative spike timing of two groups of cortical neurons with high precision. This asynchronous pairing induced rapid modifications of intracortical connections and shifts in receptive fields. These changes depended on the temporal order and interval between visual stimuli in a manner consistent with spike timing-dependent synaptic plasticity. Parallel to the cortical modifications found in the cat, such asynchronous visual stimuli also induced shifts in human spatial perception.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fu, Yu-Xi -- Djupsund, Kaj -- Gao, Hongfeng -- Hayden, Benjamin -- Shen, Kai -- Dan, Yang -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Jun 14;296(5575):1999-2003.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Neurobiology, Department of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12065829" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The non-canonical NF-kappaB pathway forms a major arm of NF-kappaB signalling that mediates important biological functions, including lymphoid organogenesis, B-lymphocyte function, and cell growth and survival. Activation of the non-canonical NF-kappaB pathway involves degradation of an inhibitory protein, TNF receptor-associated factor 3 (TRAF3), but how this signalling event is controlled is still unknown. Here we have identified the deubiquitinase OTUD7B as a pivotal regulator of the non-canonical NF-kappaB pathway. OTUD7B deficiency in mice has no appreciable effect on canonical NF-kappaB activation but causes hyperactivation of non-canonical NF-kappaB. In response to non-canonical NF-kappaB stimuli, OTUD7B binds and deubiquitinates TRAF3, thereby inhibiting TRAF3 proteolysis and preventing aberrant non-canonical NF-kappaB activation. Consequently, the OTUD7B deficiency results in B-cell hyper-responsiveness to antigens, lymphoid follicular hyperplasia in the intestinal mucosa, and elevated host-defence ability against an intestinal bacterial pathogen, Citrobacter rodentium. These findings establish OTUD7B as a crucial regulator of signal-induced non-canonical NF-kappaB activation and indicate a mechanism of immune regulation that involves OTUD7B-mediated deubiquitination and stabilization of TRAF3.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3578967/" 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/PMC3578967/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hu, Hongbo -- Brittain, George C -- Chang, Jae-Hoon -- Puebla-Osorio, Nahum -- Jin, Jin -- Zal, Anna -- Xiao, Yichuan -- Cheng, Xuhong -- Chang, Mikyoung -- Fu, Yang-Xin -- Zal, Tomasz -- Zhu, Chengming -- Sun, Shao-Cong -- AI057555/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI064639/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- CA137059/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM84459/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- P30 CA016672/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA137059/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM084459/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- T32 CA009598/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32CA009598/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2013 Feb 21;494(7437):371-4. doi: 10.1038/nature11831.

    Description: Hyperlipidemia, one of the most important risk factors for coronary heart disease, is often associated with inflammation. We identified lymphotoxin (LT) and LIGHT, tumor necrosis factor cytokine family members that are primarily expressed on lymphocytes, as critical regulators of key enzymes that control lipid metabolism. Dysregulation of LIGHT expression on T cells resulted in hypertriglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia. In low-density lipoprotein receptor-deficient mice, which lack the ability to control lipid levels in the blood, inhibition of LT and LIGHT signaling with a soluble lymphotoxin beta receptor decoy protein attenuated the dyslipidemia. These results suggest that the immune system directly influences lipid metabolism and that LT modulating agents may represent a novel therapeutic route for the treatment of dyslipidemia.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lo, James C -- Wang, Yugang -- Tumanov, Alexei V -- Bamji, Michelle -- Yao, Zemin -- Reardon, Catherine A -- Getz, Godfrey S -- Fu, Yang-Xin -- 5 T32 GM07281/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- AI062026/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- CA097296/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- DK58891/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- HL 85516/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Apr 13;316(5822):285-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Committee on Immunology, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL 60637, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17431181" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
