    Down-regulation of LFA-1 adhesion receptors by C-myc oncogene in human B lymphoblastoid cells (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1990-11-02
    Description: The function of the c-myc gene and its role in tumorigenesis are poorly understood. In order to elucidate the role of c-myc oncogene activation in B cell malignancy, the phenotypic changes caused by the expression of c-myc oncogenes in human B lymphoblastoid cells immortalized by Epstein-Barr virus were analyzed. C-myc oncogenes caused the down-regulation of lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) adhesion molecules (alpha L/beta 2 integrin) and loss of homotypic B cell adhesion in vitro. Down-regulation of LFA-1 occurred by (i) posttranscriptional modulation of LFA-1 alpha L-chain RNA soon after acute c-myc induction, and (ii) transcriptional modulation in cells that chronically express c-myc oncogenes. Analogous reductions in LFA-1 expression were detectable in Burkitt lymphoma cells carrying activated c-myc oncogenes. Since LFA-1 is involved in B cell adhesion to cytotoxic T cells, natural killer cells, and vascular endothelium, these results imply functions for c-myc in normal B cell development and lymphomagenesis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Inghirami, G -- Grignani, F -- Sternas, L -- Lombardi, L -- Knowles, D M -- Dalla-Favera, R -- CA 37165/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA 37295/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA 48236/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Nov 2;250(4981):682-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University, New York, NY 10032.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2237417" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Disruption of the human SCL locus by "illegitimate" V-(D)-J recombinase activity (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1990-12-07
    Description: A fusion complementary DNA in the T cell line HSB-2 elucidates a provocative mechanism for the disruption of the putative hematopoietic transcription factor SCL. The fusion cDNA results from an interstitial deletion between a previously unknown locus, SIL (SCL interrupting locus), and the 5' untranslated region of SCL. Similar to 1;14 translocations, this deletion disrupts the SCL 5' regulatory region. This event is probably mediated by V-(D)-J recombinase activity, although neither locus is an immunoglobulin or a T cell receptor. Two other T cell lines, CEM and RPMI 8402, have essentially identical deletions. Thus, in lymphocytes, growth-affecting genes other than immune receptors risk rearrangements.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Aplan, P D -- Lombardi, D P -- Ginsberg, A M -- Cossman, J -- Bertness, V L -- Kirsch, I R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Dec 7;250(4986):1426-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉National Cancer Institute-Navy Medical Oncology Branch, Naval Hospital, Bethesda, MD 20889-5105.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2255914" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Anergic T cells as suppressor cells in vitro (1994)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-06-10
    Description: T cell-mediated suppression is an established phenomenon, but its underlying mechanisms are obscure. An in vitro system was used to test the possibility that anergic T cells can act as specific suppressor cells. Anergic human T cells caused inhibition of antigen-specific and allospecific T cell proliferation. In order for the inhibition to occur, the anergic T cells had to be specific for the same antigen-presenting cells (APCs) as the T cells that were suppressed. The mechanism of this suppression appears to be competition for the APC surface and for locally produced interleukin-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lombardi, G -- Sidhu, S -- Batchelor, R -- Lechler, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Jun 10;264(5165):1587-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Immunology, Royal Postgraduate Medical School, London, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8202711" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Detection of an infectious retrovirus, XMRV, in blood cells of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (2009)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-10-10
    Description: Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a debilitating disease of unknown etiology that is estimated to affect 17 million people worldwide. Studying peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from CFS patients, we identified DNA from a human gammaretrovirus, xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV), in 68 of 101 patients (67%) as compared to 8 of 218 (3.7%) healthy controls. Cell culture experiments revealed that patient-derived XMRV is infectious and that both cell-associated and cell-free transmission of the virus are possible. Secondary viral infections were established in uninfected primary lymphocytes and indicator cell lines after their exposure to activated PBMCs, B cells, T cells, or plasma derived from CFS patients. These findings raise the possibility that XMRV may be a contributing factor in the pathogenesis of CFS.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lombardi, Vincent C -- Ruscetti, Francis W -- Das Gupta, Jaydip -- Pfost, Max A -- Hagen, Kathryn S -- Peterson, Daniel L -- Ruscetti, Sandra K -- Bagni, Rachel K -- Petrow-Sadowski, Cari -- Gold, Bert -- Dean, Michael -- Silverman, Robert H -- Mikovits, Judy A -- CA104943/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- HHSN26120080001E/PHS HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 Oct 23;326(5952):585-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1179052.
