    Submicrometer metallic barcodes (2001)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2001-10-06
    Description: We synthesized multimetal microrods intrinsically encoded with submicrometer stripes. Complex striping patterns are readily prepared by sequential electrochemical deposition of metal ions into templates with uniformly sized pores. The differential reflectivity of adjacent stripes enables identification of the striping patterns by conventional light microscopy. This readout mechanism does not interfere with the use of fluorescence for detection of analytes bound to particles by affinity capture, as demonstrated by DNA and protein bioassays.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Nicewarner-Pena, S R -- Freeman, R G -- Reiss, B D -- He, L -- Pena, D J -- Walton, I D -- Cromer, R -- Keating, C D -- Natan, M J -- HG02228/HG/NHGRI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Oct 5;294(5540):137-41.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Pennsylvania State University, 152 Davey Laboratory, University Park, PA 16802, USA., SurroMed Inc., 2375 Garcia Avenue, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11588257" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Myeloperoxidase, a leukocyte-derived vascular NO oxidase (2002)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2002-06-29
    Description: Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an abundant mammalian phagocyte hemoprotein thought to primarily mediate host defense reactions. Although its microbicidal functions are well established in vitro, humans deficient in MPO are not at unusual risk of infection. MPO was observed herein to modulate the vascular signaling and vasodilatory functions of nitric oxide (NO) during acute inflammation. After leukocyte degranulation, MPO localized in and around vascular endothelial cells in a rodent model of acute endotoxemia and impaired endothelium-dependent relaxant responses, to which MPO-deficient mice were resistant. Altered vascular responsiveness was due to catalytic consumption of NO by substrate radicals generated by MPO. Thus MPO can directly modulate vascular inflammatory responses by regulating NO bioavailability.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Eiserich, Jason P -- Baldus, Stephan -- Brennan, Marie-Luise -- Ma, Wenxin -- Zhang, Chunxiang -- Tousson, Albert -- Castro, Laura -- Lusis, Aldons J -- Nauseef, William M -- White, C Roger -- Freeman, Bruce A -- I01 BX000513/BX/BLRD VA/ -- R01 HL067930/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R03 TW005682/TW/FIC NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Jun 28;296(5577):2391-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Nephrology, University of California, Davis, CA 95616, USA. jpeiserich@ucdavis.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12089442" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Draper-dependent glial phagocytic activity is mediated by Src and Syk family kinase signalling (2008)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2008-04-25
    Description: The cellular machinery promoting phagocytosis of corpses of apoptotic cells is well conserved from worms to mammals. An important component is the Caenorhabditis elegans engulfment receptor CED-1 (ref. 1) and its Drosophila orthologue, Draper. The CED-1/Draper signalling pathway is also essential for the phagocytosis of other types of 'modified self' including necrotic cells, developmentally pruned axons and dendrites, and axons undergoing Wallerian degeneration. Here we show that Drosophila Shark, a non-receptor tyrosine kinase similar to mammalian Syk and Zap-70, binds Draper through an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) in the Draper intracellular domain. We show that Shark activity is essential for Draper-mediated signalling events in vivo, including the recruitment of glial membranes to severed axons and the phagocytosis of axonal debris and neuronal cell corpses by glia. We also show that the Src family kinase (SFK) Src42A can markedly increase Draper phosphorylation and is essential for glial phagocytic activity. We propose that ligand-dependent Draper receptor activation initiates the Src42A-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of Draper, the association of Shark and the activation of the Draper pathway. These Draper-Src42A-Shark interactions are strikingly similar to mammalian immunoreceptor-SFK-Syk signalling events in mammalian myeloid and lymphoid cells. Thus, Draper seems to be an ancient immunoreceptor with an extracellular domain tuned to modified self, and an intracellular domain promoting phagocytosis through an ITAM-domain-SFK-Syk-mediated signalling cascade.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2493287/" 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/PMC2493287/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ziegenfuss, Jennifer S -- Biswas, Romi -- Avery, Michelle A -- Hong, Kyoungja -- Sheehan, Amy E -- Yeung, Yee-Guide -- Stanley, E Richard -- Freeman, Marc R -- 1R01CA26504/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- 1R01GM55293/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- 1R01NS053538/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R37 CA026504/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R37 CA026504-30/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2008 Jun 12;453(7197):935-9. doi: 10.1038/nature06901.

    Biomechanical forces promote embryonic haematopoiesis (2009)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-05-15
    Description: Biomechanical forces are emerging as critical regulators of embryogenesis, particularly in the developing cardiovascular system. After initiation of the heartbeat in vertebrates, cells lining the ventral aspect of the dorsal aorta, the placental vessels, and the umbilical and vitelline arteries initiate expression of the transcription factor Runx1 (refs 3-5), a master regulator of haematopoiesis, and give rise to haematopoietic cells. It remains unknown whether the biomechanical forces imposed on the vascular wall at this developmental stage act as a determinant of haematopoietic potential. Here, using mouse embryonic stem cells differentiated in vitro, we show that fluid shear stress increases the expression of Runx1 in CD41(+)c-Kit(+) haematopoietic progenitor cells, concomitantly augmenting their haematopoietic colony-forming potential. Moreover, we find that shear stress increases haematopoietic colony-forming potential and expression of haematopoietic markers in the para-aortic splanchnopleura/aorta-gonads-mesonephros of mouse embryos and that abrogation of nitric oxide, a mediator of shear-stress-induced signalling, compromises haematopoietic potential in vitro and in vivo. Collectively, these data reveal a critical role for biomechanical forces in haematopoietic development.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2782763/" 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/PMC2782763/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Adamo, Luigi -- Naveiras, Olaia -- Wenzel, Pamela L -- McKinney-Freeman, Shannon -- Mack, Peter J -- Gracia-Sancho, Jorge -- Suchy-Dicey, Astrid -- Yoshimoto, Momoko -- Lensch, M William -- Yoder, Mervin C -- Garcia-Cardena, Guillermo -- Daley, George Q -- R01 AI080759/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI080759-01/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- England -- Nature. 2009 Jun 25;459(7250):1131-5. doi: 10.1038/nature08073.

    Enhancing SIV-specific immunity in vivo by PD-1 blockade (2008)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2008-12-17
    Description: Chronic immunodeficiency virus infections are characterized by dysfunctional cellular and humoral antiviral immune responses. As such, immune modulatory therapies that enhance and/or restore the function of virus-specific immunity may protect from disease progression. Here we investigate the safety and immune restoration potential of blockade of the co-inhibitory receptor programmed death 1 (PD-1) during chronic simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infection in macaques. We demonstrate that PD-1 blockade using an antibody to PD-1 is well tolerated and results in rapid expansion of virus-specific CD8 T cells with improved functional quality. This enhanced T-cell immunity was seen in the blood and also in the gut, a major reservoir of SIV infection. PD-1 blockade also resulted in proliferation of memory B cells and increases in SIV envelope-specific antibody. These improved immune responses were associated with significant reductions in plasma viral load and also prolonged the survival of SIV-infected macaques. Blockade was effective during the early (week 10) as well as late ( approximately week 90) phases of chronic infection even under conditions of severe lymphopenia. These results demonstrate enhancement of both cellular and humoral immune responses during a pathogenic immunodeficiency virus infection by blocking a single inhibitory pathway and identify a novel therapeutic approach for control of human immunodeficiency virus infections.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2753387/" 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/PMC2753387/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Velu, Vijayakumar -- Titanji, Kehmia -- Zhu, Baogong -- Husain, Sajid -- Pladevega, Annette -- Lai, Lilin -- Vanderford, Thomas H -- Chennareddi, Lakshmi -- Silvestri, Guido -- Freeman, Gordon J -- Ahmed, Rafi -- Amara, Rama Rao -- P30 AI050409/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- P51 RR00165/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI057029/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI057029-01/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI057029-02/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI057029-03/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI057029-04/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI057029-05/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI071852/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI074417/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI074417-01A1/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI074417-02/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R24 RR16038/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2009 Mar 12;458(7235):206-10. doi: 10.1038/nature07662.

    Activation of autophagy during cell death requires the engulfment receptor Draper (2010)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2010-06-26
    Description: Autophagy degrades cytoplasmic components that are required for cell survival in response to starvation. Autophagy has also been associated with cell death, but it is unclear how this is distinguished from autophagy during cell survival. Drosophila salivary glands undergo programmed cell death that requires autophagy genes, and engulfment of salivary gland cells by phagocytes does not appear to occur. Here we show that Draper (Drpr), the Drosophila melanogaster orthologue of the Caenorhabditis elegans engulfment receptor CED-1, is required for autophagy during cell death. Null mutations in, and salivary gland-specific knockdown of, drpr inhibit salivary gland degradation. Knockdown of drpr prevents the induction of autophagy in dying salivary glands, and expression of the Atg1 autophagy regulator in drpr mutants suppresses the failure in degradation of salivary glands. Surprisingly, drpr is required in the same dying salivary gland cells in which it regulates autophagy induction, but drpr knockdown does not prevent starvation-induced autophagy in the fat body, which is associated with survival. In addition, components of the conserved engulfment pathway are required for clearance of dying salivary glands. To our knowledge, this is the first example of an engulfment factor that is required for self-clearance of cells. Further, Drpr is the first factor that distinguishes autophagy that is associated with cell death from autophagy associated with cell survival.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2892814/" 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/PMC2892814/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉McPhee, Christina K -- Logan, Mary A -- Freeman, Marc R -- Baehrecke, Eric H -- DK32520/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- GM079431/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- NS053538/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM079431/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM079431-04/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM079431-05/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- England -- Nature. 2010 Jun 24;465(7301):1093-6. doi: 10.1038/nature09127.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cancer Biology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, Massachusetts 01605, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20577216" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Stereoscopic depth discrimination in the visual cortex: neurons ideally suited as disparity detectors (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1990-08-31
    Description: The possibility has been explored that a subset of physiologically identifiable cells in the visual cortex is especially suited for the processing of stereoscopic depth information. First, characteristics of a disparity detector that would be useful for such processing were outlined. Then, a method was devised by which detailed binocular response data were obtained from cortical cells. In addition, a model of the disparity detector was developed that includes a plausible hierarchical arrangement of cortical cells. Data from the cells compare well with the requirements for the archetypal disparity detector and are in excellent agreement with the predictions of the model. These results demonstrate that a specific type of cortical neuron exhibits the desired characteristics of a disparity detector.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ohzawa, I -- DeAngelis, G C -- Freeman, R D -- EY01175/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 31;249(4972):1037-41.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Group in Neurobiology, School of Optometry, University of California, Berkeley 94720.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2396096" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    High-level recombinant gene expression in rabbit endothelial cells transduced by retroviral vectors (1989)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1989-01-13
    Description: By virtue of its immediate contact with the circulating blood, the endothelium provides an attractive target for retroviral vector transduction for the purpose of gene therapy. To see whether efficient gene transfer and expression was feasible, rabbit aortic endothelial cells were infected with three Moloney murine leukemia virus-derived retroviral vectors. Two of these vectors carry genes encoding products that are not secreted: N2, containing only the selectable marker gene neoR, and SAX, containing both neoR gene and an SV40-promoted adenosine deaminase (ADA) gene. The third vector, G2N, contains a secretory rat growth hormone (rGH) gene and an SV40-promoted neoR gene. Infection with all three vectors resulted in expression of the respective genes. A high level of human ADA expression was observed in infected endothelial cell populations both before and after selection in G418. G2N-infected rabbit aortic endothelial cells that were grown on a synthetic vascular graft continued to secrete rGH into the culture medium. These studies suggest that endothelial cells may serve as vehicles for the introduction in vivo of functioning recombinant genes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zwiebel, J A -- Freeman, S M -- Kantoff, P W -- Cornetta, K -- Ryan, U S -- Anderson, W F -- HL21568/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL33064/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jan 13;243(4888):220-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Molecular Hematology, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, Bethesda, MD 20892.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2911735" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A G protein-linked receptor for parathyroid hormone and parathyroid hormone-related peptide (1991)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1991-11-25
    Description: The complementary DNA encoding a 585-amino acid parathyroid hormone-parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTH-PTHrP) receptor with seven potential membrane-spanning domains was cloned by COS-7 expression using an opossum kidney cell complementary DNA (cDNA) library. The expressed receptor binds PTH and PTHrP with equal affinity, and both ligands equivalently stimulate adenylate cyclase. Striking homology with the calcitonin receptor and lack of homology with other G protein-linked receptors indicate that receptors for these calcium-regulating hormones are related and represent a new family.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Juppner, H -- Abou-Samra, A B -- Freeman, M -- Kong, X F -- Schipani, E -- Richards, J -- Kolakowski, L F Jr -- Hock, J -- Potts, J T Jr -- Kronenberg, H M -- DK 11794/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1991 Nov 15;254(5034):1024-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Endocrine Unit, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston 02114.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1658941" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
