    Mutations in the dystrophin-associated protein gamma-sarcoglycan in chromosome 13 muscular dystrophy (1995)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1995-11-03
    Description: Severe childhood autosomal recessive muscular dystrophy (SCARMD) is a progressive muscle-wasting disorder common in North Africa that segregates with microsatellite markers at chromosome 13q12. Here, it is shown that a mutation in the gene encoding the 35-kilodalton dystrophin-associated glycoprotein, gamma-sarcoglycan, is likely to be the primary genetic defect in this disorder. The human gamma-sarcoglycan gene was mapped to chromosome 13q12, and deletions that alter its reading frame were identified in three families and one of four sporadic cases of SCARMD. These mutations not only affect gamma-sarcoglycan but also disrupt the integrity of the entire sarcoglycan complex.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Noguchi, S -- McNally, E M -- Ben Othmane, K -- Hagiwara, Y -- Mizuno, Y -- Yoshida, M -- Yamamoto, H -- Bonnemann, C G -- Gussoni, E -- Denton, P H -- Kyriakides, T -- Middleton, L -- Hentati, F -- Ben Hamida, M -- Nonaka, I -- Vance, J M -- Kunkel, L M -- Ozawa, E -- NS23740/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P01-NS26630/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1995 Nov 3;270(5237):819-22.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉National Institute of Neuroscience, National Center for Neurology and Psychiatry, Tokyo, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7481775" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Dependence of human stem cell engraftment and repopulation of NOD/SCID mice on CXCR4 (1999)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1999-02-05
    Description: Stem cell homing and repopulation are not well understood. The chemokine stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) and its receptor CXCR4 were found to be critical for murine bone marrow engraftment by human severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) repopulating stem cells. Treatment of human cells with antibodies to CXCR4 prevented engraftment. In vitro CXCR4-dependent migration to SDF-1 of CD34+CD38-/low cells correlated with in vivo engraftment and stem cell function. Stem cell factor and interleukin-6 induced CXCR4 expression on CD34+ cells, which potentiated migration to SDF-1 and engraftment in primary and secondary transplanted mice. Thus, up-regulation of CXCR4 expression may be useful for improving engraftment of repopulating stem cells in clinical transplantation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Peled, A -- Petit, I -- Kollet, O -- Magid, M -- Ponomaryov, T -- Byk, T -- Nagler, A -- Ben-Hur, H -- Many, A -- Shultz, L -- Lider, O -- Alon, R -- Zipori, D -- Lapidot, T -- A130389/PHS HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1999 Feb 5;283(5403):845-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Immunology, The Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot 76100, Israel.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9933168" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Influence of gene action across different time scales on behavior (2002)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2002-04-27
    Description: Genes can affect natural behavioral variation in different ways. Allelic variation causes alternative behavioral phenotypes, whereas changes in gene expression can influence the initiation of behavior at different ages. We show that the age-related transition by honey bees from hive work to foraging is associated with an increase in the expression of the foraging (for) gene, which encodes a guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP)-dependent protein kinase (PKG). cGMP treatment elevated PKG activity and caused foraging behavior. Previous research showed that allelic differences in PKG expression result in two Drosophila foraging variants. The same gene can thus exert different types of influence on a behavior.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ben-Shahar, Y -- Robichon, A -- Sokolowski, M B -- Robinson, G E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Apr 26;296(5568):741-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Entomology, Neuroscience Program, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 320 Morrill Hall, 505 South Goodwin Avenue, Urbana, IL 61801, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11976457" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Correlated bursts of activity in the neonatal hippocampus in vivo (2002)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2002-06-18
    Description: The behavior of immature cortical networks in vivo remains largely unknown. Using multisite extracellular and patch-clamp recordings, we observed recurrent bursts of synchronized neuronal activity lasting 0.5 to 3 seconds that occurred spontaneously in the hippocampus of freely moving and anesthetized rat pups. The influence of slow rhythms (0.33 and 0.1 hertz) and the contribution of both gamma-aminobutyric acid A-mediated and glutamate receptor-mediated synaptic signals in the generation of hippocampal bursts was reminiscent of giant depolarizing potentials observed in vitro. This earliest pattern, which diversifies during the second postnatal week, could provide correlated activity for immature neurons and may underlie activity-dependent maturation of the hippocampal network.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Leinekugel, Xavier -- Khazipov, Rustem -- Cannon, Robert -- Hirase, Hajime -- Ben-Ari, Yehezkel -- Buzsaki, Gyorgy -- FO6 TW02290/TW/FIC NIH HHS/ -- N0T 43994/PHS HHS/ -- NS 34994/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS 43157/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- RR09754/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Jun 14;296(5575):2049-52.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉INMED, Institut National de la Sante et de la Recherche Medicale (INSERM) U29, Avenue de Luminy, Boite Postale 13, 13273 Marseille Cedex 09, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12065842" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Alternative splicing and neuritic mRNA translocation under long-term neuronal hypersensitivity (2002)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2002-01-19
    Description: To explore neuronal mechanisms underlying long-term consequences of stress, we studied stress-induced changes in the neuritic translocation of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) splice variants. Under normal conditions, we found the synaptic AChE-S mRNA and protein in neurites. Corticosterone, anticholinesterases, and forced swim, each facilitated a rapid (minutes), yet long-lasting (weeks), shift from AChE-S to the normally rare AChE-R mRNA, promoted AChE-R mRNA translocation into neurites, and induced enzyme secretion. Weeks after stress, electrophysiological measurements in hippocampus slices displayed apparently normal evoked synaptic responses but extreme hypersensitivity to both anticholinesterases and atropine. Our findings suggest that neuronal hypersensitivity under stress involves neuritic replacement of AChE-S with AChE-R.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Meshorer, Eran -- Erb, Christina -- Gazit, Roi -- Pavlovsky, Lev -- Kaufer, Daniela -- Friedman, Alon -- Glick, David -- Ben-Arie, Nissim -- Soreq, Hermona -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Jan 18;295(5554):508-12.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Chemistry, The Institute of Life Sciences and The Eric Roland Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel 91904.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11799248" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Math1: an essential gene for the generation of inner ear hair cells (1999)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1999-06-12
    Description: The mammalian inner ear contains the cochlea and vestibular organs, which are responsible for hearing and balance, respectively. The epithelia of these sensory organs contain hair cells that function as mechanoreceptors to transduce sound and head motion. The molecular mechanisms underlying hair cell development and differentiation are poorly understood. Math1, a mouse homolog of the Drosophila proneural gene atonal, is expressed in inner ear sensory epithelia. Embryonic Math1-null mice failed to generate cochlear and vestibular hair cells. This gene is thus required for the genesis of hair cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bermingham, N A -- Hassan, B A -- Price, S D -- Vollrath, M A -- Ben-Arie, N -- Eatock, R A -- Bellen, H J -- Lysakowski, A -- Zoghbi, H Y -- R01 DC002290/DC/NIDCD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1999 Jun 11;284(5421):1837-41.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Molecular and Human Genetics, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX 77030, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10364557" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Large porous particles for pulmonary drug delivery (1997)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1997-06-20
    Description: A new type of inhalation aerosol, characterized by particles of small mass density and large size, permitted the highly efficient delivery of inhaled therapeutics into the systemic circulation. Particles with mass densities less than 0.4 gram per cubic centimeter and mean diameters exceeding 5 micrometers were inspired deep into the lungs and escaped the lungs' natural clearance mechanisms until the inhaled particles delivered their therapeutic payload. Inhalation of large porous insulin particles resulted in elevated systemic levels of insulin and suppressed systemic glucose levels for 96 hours, whereas small nonporous insulin particles had this effect for only 4 hours. High systemic bioavailability of testosterone was also achieved by inhalation delivery of porous particles with a mean diameter (20 micrometers) approximately 10 times that of conventional inhaled therapeutic particles.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Edwards, D A -- Hanes, J -- Caponetti, G -- Hrkach, J -- Ben-Jebria, A -- Eskew, M L -- Mintzes, J -- Deaver, D -- Lotan, N -- Langer, R -- GM26698/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HD29125/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jun 20;276(5320):1868-71.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemical Engineering, Pennsylvania State University, 204 Fenske Laboratory, University Park, PA 16802, USA. dxe11@psuv.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9188534" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Scaling of the BMP activation gradient in Xenopus embryos (2008)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2008-06-27
    Description: In groundbreaking experiments, Hans Spemann demonstrated that the dorsal part of the amphibian embryo can generate a well-proportioned tadpole, and that a small group of dorsal cells, the 'organizer', can induce a complete and well-proportioned twinned axis when transplanted into a host embryo. Key to organizer function is the localized secretion of inhibitors of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP), which defines a graded BMP activation profile. Although the central proteins involved in shaping this gradient are well characterized, their integrated function, and in particular how pattern scales with size, is not understood. Here we present evidence that in Xenopus, the BMP activity gradient is defined by a 'shuttling-based' mechanism, whereby the BMP ligands are translocated ventrally through their association with the BMP inhibitor Chordin. This shuttling, with feedback repression of the BMP ligand Admp, offers a quantitative explanation to Spemann's observations, and accounts naturally for the scaling of embryo pattern with its size.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ben-Zvi, Danny -- Shilo, Ben-Zion -- Fainsod, Abraham -- Barkai, Naama -- England -- Nature. 2008 Jun 26;453(7199):1205-11. doi: 10.1038/nature07059.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Genetics, Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot 76100, Israel.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18580943" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Conserved eukaryotic fusogens can fuse viral envelopes to cells (2011)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-03-26
    Description: Caenorhabditis elegans proteins AFF-1 and EFF-1 [C. elegans fusion family (CeFF) proteins] are essential for developmental cell-to-cell fusion and can merge insect cells. To study the structure and function of AFF-1, we constructed vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) displaying AFF-1 on the viral envelope, substituting the native fusogen VSV glycoprotein. Electron microscopy and tomography revealed that AFF-1 formed distinct supercomplexes resembling pentameric and hexameric "flowers" on pseudoviruses. Viruses carrying AFF-1 infected mammalian cells only when CeFFs were on the target cell surface. Furthermore, we identified fusion family (FF) proteins within and beyond nematodes, and divergent members from the human parasitic nematode Trichinella spiralis and the chordate Branchiostoma floridae could also fuse mammalian cells. Thus, FF proteins are part of an ancient family of cellular fusogens that can promote fusion when expressed on a viral particle.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3084904/" 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/PMC3084904/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Avinoam, Ori -- Fridman, Karen -- Valansi, Clari -- Abutbul, Inbal -- Zeev-Ben-Mordehai, Tzviya -- Maurer, Ulrike E -- Sapir, Amir -- Danino, Dganit -- Grunewald, Kay -- White, Judith M -- Podbilewicz, Benjamin -- 090532/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 090895/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- AI22470/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI022470/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- R01 AI022470-24/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2011 Apr 29;332(6029):589-92. doi: 10.1126/science.1202333.

    Empathy and pro-social behavior in rats (2011)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-12-14
    Description: Whereas human pro-social behavior is often driven by empathic concern for another, it is unclear whether nonprimate mammals experience a similar motivational state. To test for empathically motivated pro-social behavior in rodents, we placed a free rat in an arena with a cagemate trapped in a restrainer. After several sessions, the free rat learned to intentionally and quickly open the restrainer and free the cagemate. Rats did not open empty or object-containing restrainers. They freed cagemates even when social contact was prevented. When liberating a cagemate was pitted against chocolate contained within a second restrainer, rats opened both restrainers and typically shared the chocolate. Thus, rats behave pro-socially in response to a conspecific's distress, providing strong evidence for biological roots of empathically motivated helping behavior.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3760221/" 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/PMC3760221/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ben-Ami Bartal, Inbal -- Decety, Jean -- Mason, Peggy -- DA022429/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- DA022978/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- R01 DA022978/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- R21 DA022429/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2011 Dec 9;334(6061):1427-30. doi: 10.1126/science.1210789.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Psychology, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22158823" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
