    Description: Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is a frequent disease in which the genetic alterations determining the clinicobiological behaviour are not fully understood. Here we describe a comprehensive evaluation of the genomic landscape of 452 CLL cases and 54 patients with monoclonal B-lymphocytosis, a precursor disorder. We extend the number of CLL driver alterations, including changes in ZNF292, ZMYM3, ARID1A and PTPN11. We also identify novel recurrent mutations in non-coding regions, including the 3' region of NOTCH1, which cause aberrant splicing events, increase NOTCH1 activity and result in a more aggressive disease. In addition, mutations in an enhancer located on chromosome 9p13 result in reduced expression of the B-cell-specific transcription factor PAX5. The accumulative number of driver alterations (0 to 〉/=4) discriminated between patients with differences in clinical behaviour. This study provides an integrated portrait of the CLL genomic landscape, identifies new recurrent driver mutations of the disease, and suggests clinical interventions that may improve the management of this neoplasia.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Puente, Xose S -- Bea, Silvia -- Valdes-Mas, Rafael -- Villamor, Neus -- Gutierrez-Abril, Jesus -- Martin-Subero, Jose I -- Munar, Marta -- Rubio-Perez, Carlota -- Jares, Pedro -- Aymerich, Marta -- Baumann, Tycho -- Beekman, Renee -- Belver, Laura -- Carrio, Anna -- Castellano, Giancarlo -- Clot, Guillem -- Colado, Enrique -- Colomer, Dolors -- Costa, Dolors -- Delgado, Julio -- Enjuanes, Anna -- Estivill, Xavier -- Ferrando, Adolfo A -- Gelpi, Josep L -- Gonzalez, Blanca -- Gonzalez, Santiago -- Gonzalez, Marcos -- Gut, Marta -- Hernandez-Rivas, Jesus M -- Lopez-Guerra, Monica -- Martin-Garcia, David -- Navarro, Alba -- Nicolas, Pilar -- Orozco, Modesto -- Payer, Angel R -- Pinyol, Magda -- Pisano, David G -- Puente, Diana A -- Queiros, Ana C -- Quesada, Victor -- Romeo-Casabona, Carlos M -- Royo, Cristina -- Royo, Romina -- Rozman, Maria -- Russinol, Nuria -- Salaverria, Itziar -- Stamatopoulos, Kostas -- Stunnenberg, Hendrik G -- Tamborero, David -- Terol, Maria J -- Valencia, Alfonso -- Lopez-Bigas, Nuria -- Torrents, David -- Gut, Ivo -- Lopez-Guillermo, Armando -- Lopez-Otin, Carlos -- Campo, Elias -- England -- Nature. 2015 Oct 22;526(7574):519-24. doi: 10.1038/nature14666.

    Description: We examine 3 years of interplanetary data and geomagnetic activity indices (1973-1975) to determine the causes of geomagnetic storms and substorms during the descending phase of the solar cycle. In this paper, we specifically studied the year 1974 where two long lasting coronating streams existed.

    Description: Intense geomagnetic storms (Dst〈or equal to -100nT) have been associated with interplanetary structures involving large-intensity (B(sub 3)〈or equal to 10nT) and long-duration (T〈 or equal to 3 hours) values of the southward component of the IMF. We show that near solar maximum, the solar origin of such structures seems to be associated with active regions(flares and/or filament eruptions) ocurring close to the streamer belt and to growing low altitude coronal holes. It is also shown that such type of coronal holes had a dual-peak solar cycle distribution during solar cycle 21, similar to that previously reported for the above mentioned interplanetary and geomagnetic phenomena.

    Description: Extracts of the resin of the guggul tree (Commiphora mukul) lower LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol levels in humans. The plant sterol guggulsterone [4,17(20)-pregnadiene-3,16-dione] is the active agent in this extract. We show that guggulsterone is a highly efficacious antagonist of the farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a nuclear hormone receptor that is activated by bile acids. Guggulsterone treatment decreases hepatic cholesterol in wild-type mice fed a high-cholesterol diet but is not effective in FXR-null mice. Thus, we propose that inhibition of FXR activation is the basis for the cholesterol-lowering activity of guggulsterone. Other natural products with specific biologic effects may modulate the activity of FXR or other relatively promiscuous nuclear hormone receptors.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Urizar, Nancy L -- Liverman, Amy B -- Dodds, D'Nette T -- Silva, Frank Valentin -- Ordentlich, Peter -- Yan, Yingzhuo -- Gonzalez, Frank J -- Heyman, Richard A -- Mangelsdorf, David J -- Moore, David D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 May 31;296(5573):1703-6.

    Description: RANK ligand (RANKL), a TNF-related molecule, is essential for osteoclast formation, function and survival through interaction with its receptor RANK. Mammary glands of RANK- and RANKL-deficient mice develop normally during sexual maturation, but fail to form lobuloalveolar structures during pregnancy because of defective proliferation and increased apoptosis of mammary epithelium. It has been shown that RANKL is responsible for the major proliferative response of mouse mammary epithelium to progesterone during mammary lactational morphogenesis, and in mouse models, manipulated to induce activation of the RANK/RANKL pathway in the absence of strict hormonal control, inappropriate mammary proliferation is observed. However, there is no evidence so far of a functional contribution of RANKL to tumorigenesis. Here we show that RANK and RANKL are expressed within normal, pre-malignant and neoplastic mammary epithelium, and using complementary gain-of-function (mouse mammary tumour virus (MMTV)-RANK transgenic mice) and loss-of function (pharmacological inhibition of RANKL) approaches, define a direct contribution of this pathway in mammary tumorigenesis. Accelerated pre-neoplasias and increased mammary tumour formation were observed in MMTV-RANK transgenic mice after multiparity or treatment with carcinogen and hormone (progesterone). Reciprocally, selective pharmacological inhibition of RANKL attenuated mammary tumour development not only in hormone- and carcinogen-treated MMTV-RANK and wild-type mice, but also in the MMTV-neu transgenic spontaneous tumour model. The reduction in tumorigenesis upon RANKL inhibition was preceded by a reduction in pre-neoplasias as well as rapid and sustained reductions in hormone- and carcinogen-induced mammary epithelial proliferation and cyclin D1 levels. Collectively, our results indicate that RANKL inhibition is acting directly on hormone-induced mammary epithelium at early stages in tumorigenesis, and the permissive contribution of progesterone to increased mammary cancer incidence is due to RANKL-dependent proliferative changes in the mammary epithelium. The current study highlights a potential role for RANKL inhibition in the management of proliferative breast disease.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gonzalez-Suarez, Eva -- Jacob, Allison P -- Jones, Jon -- Miller, Robert -- Roudier-Meyer, Martine P -- Erwert, Ryan -- Pinkas, Jan -- Branstetter, Dan -- Dougall, William C -- England -- Nature. 2010 Nov 4;468(7320):103-7. doi: 10.1038/nature09495.

    Description: Despite their importance for urban planning, traffic forecasting and the spread of biological and mobile viruses, our understanding of the basic laws governing human motion remains limited owing to the lack of tools to monitor the time-resolved location of individuals. Here we study the trajectory of 100,000 anonymized mobile phone users whose position is tracked for a six-month period. We find that, in contrast with the random trajectories predicted by the prevailing Levy flight and random walk models, human trajectories show a high degree of temporal and spatial regularity, each individual being characterized by a time-independent characteristic travel distance and a significant probability to return to a few highly frequented locations. After correcting for differences in travel distances and the inherent anisotropy of each trajectory, the individual travel patterns collapse into a single spatial probability distribution, indicating that, despite the diversity of their travel history, humans follow simple reproducible patterns. This inherent similarity in travel patterns could impact all phenomena driven by human mobility, from epidemic prevention to emergency response, urban planning and agent-based modelling.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gonzalez, Marta C -- Hidalgo, Cesar A -- Barabasi, Albert-Laszlo -- England -- Nature. 2008 Jun 5;453(7196):779-82. doi: 10.1038/nature06958.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Center for Complex Network Research and Department of Physics, Biology and Computer Science, Northeastern University, Boston, Massachusetts 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18528393" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
