    IRS-1-mediated inhibition of insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity in TNF-alpha- and obesity-induced insulin resistance (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-02-02
    Description: Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is an important mediator of insulin resistance in obesity and diabetes through its ability to decrease the tyrosine kinase activity of the insulin receptor (IR). Treatment of cultured murine adipocytes with TNF-alpha was shown to induce serine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) and convert IRS-1 into an inhibitor of the IR tyrosine kinase activity in vitro. Myeloid 32D cells, which lack endogenous IRS-1, were resistant to TNF-alpha-mediated inhibition of IR signaling, whereas transfected 32D cells that express IRS-1 were very sensitive to this effect of TNF-alpha. An inhibitory form of IRS-1 was observed in muscle and fat tissues from obese rats. These results indicate that TNF-alpha induces insulin resistance through an unexpected action of IRS-1 to attenuate insulin receptor signaling.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hotamisligil, G S -- Peraldi, P -- Budavari, A -- Ellis, R -- White, M F -- Spiegelman, B M -- DK 42539/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Feb 2;271(5249):665-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cellular and Molecular Biology, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8571133" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    RAC regulation of actin polymerization and proliferation by a pathway distinct from Jun kinase (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-11-22
    Description: The RAC guanine nucleotide binding proteins regulate multiple biological activities, including actin polymerization, activation of the Jun kinase (JNK) cascade, and cell proliferation. RAC effector loop mutants were identified that separate the ability of RAC to interact with different downstream effectors. One mutant of activated human RAC protein, RACV12H40 (with valine and histidine substituted at position 12 and 40, respectively), was defective in binding to PAK3, a Ste20-related p21-activated kinase (PAK), but bound to POR1, a RAC-binding protein. This mutant failed to stimulate PAK and JNK activity but still induced membrane ruffling and mediated transformation. A second mutant, RACV12L37 (with leucine substituted at position 37), which bound PAK but not POR1, induced JNK activation but was defective in inducing membrane ruffling and transformation. These results indicate that the effects of RAC on the JNK cascade and on actin polymerization and cell proliferation are mediated by distinct effector pathways that diverge at the level of RAC itself.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Joneson, T -- McDonough, M -- Bar-Sagi, D -- Van Aelst, L -- CA55360/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Nov 22;274(5291):1374-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology, State University of New York, Stony Brook, NY 11794, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8910277" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Inhibition of myogenic bHLH and MEF2 transcription factors by the bHLH protein Twist (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-06-07
    Description: The myogenic basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) and MEF2 transcription factors are expressed in the myotome of developing somites and cooperatively activate skeletal muscle gene expression. The bHLH protein Twist is expressed throughout the epithelial somite and is subsequently excluded from the myotome. Ectopically expressed mouse Twist (Mtwist) was shown to inhibit myogenesis by blocking DNA binding by MyoD, by titrating E proteins, and by inhibiting trans-activation by MEF2. For inhibition of MEF2, Mtwist required heterodimerization with E proteins and an intact basic domain and carboxyl-terminus. Thus, Mtwist inhibits both families of myogenic regulators and may regulate myotome formation temporally or spatially.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Spicer, D B -- Rhee, J -- Cheung, W L -- Lassar, A B -- 5-F32-AR08214-02/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jun 7;272(5267):1476-80.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8633239" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Appetite-suppressing effects of urocortin, a CRF-related neuropeptide (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-09-13
    Description: The neuropeptide corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is well known to act on the central nervous system in ways that mimic stress and result in decreases in exploration, increases in sympathetic activity, decreases in parasympathetic outflow, and decreases in appetitive behavior. Urocortin, a neuropeptide related to CRF, binds with high affinity to the CRF2 receptor, is more potent than CRF in suppressing appetite, but is less potent than CRF in producing anxiety-like effects and activation. Doses as low as 10 nanograms injected intracerebroventricularly were effective in decreasing food intake in food-deprived and free-feeding rats. These results suggest that urocortin may be an endogenous CRF-like factor in the brain responsible for the effects of stress on appetite.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Spina, M -- Merlo-Pich, E -- Chan, R K -- Basso, A M -- Rivier, J -- Vale, W -- Koob, G F -- 1 F05 TW05262/TW/FIC NIH HHS/ -- DK 26741/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Sep 13;273(5281):1561-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neuropharmacology, Scripps Research Institute, 10666 North Torrey Pines Road, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8703220" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Stimulation of membrane ruffling and MAP kinase activation by distinct effectors of RAS (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-02-09
    Description: The RAS guanine nucleotide binding proteins activate multiple signaling events that regulate cell growth and differentiation. In quiescent fibroblasts, ectopic expression of activated H-RAS (H-RASV12, where V12 indicates valine-12) induces membrane ruffling, mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase activation, and stimulation of DNA synthesis. A mutant of activated H-RAS, H-RASV12C40 (where C40 indicates cysteine-40), was identified that was defective for MAP kinase activation and stimulation of DNA synthesis, but retained the ability to induce membrane ruffling. Another mutant of activated H-RAS, H-RASV12S35 (where S35 indicates serine-35), which activates MAP kinase, was defective for stimulation of membrane ruffling and induction of DNA synthesis. Expression of both mutants resulted in a stimulation of DNA synthesis that was comparable to that induced by H-RASV12. These results indicate that membrane ruffling and activation of MAP kinase represent distinct RAS effector pathways and that input from both pathways is required for the mitogenic activity of RAS.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Joneson, T -- White, M A -- Wigler, M H -- Bar-Sagi, D -- CA 55360/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Feb 9;271(5250):810-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology, State University of New York at Stony Brook 11794, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8628998" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Coupling of the RAS-MAPK pathway to gene activation by RSK2, a growth factor-regulated CREB kinase (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-08-16
    Description: A signaling pathway has been elucidated whereby growth factors activate the transcription factor cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element-binding protein (CREB), a critical regulator of immediate early gene transcription. Growth factor-stimulated CREB phosphorylation at serine-133 is mediated by the RAS-mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. MAPK activates CREB kinase, which in turn phosphorylates and activates CREB. Purification, sequencing, and biochemical characterization of CREB kinase revealed that it is identical to a member of the pp90(RSK) family, RSK2. RSK2 was shown to mediate growth factor induction of CREB serine-133 phosphorylation both in vitro and in vivo. These findings identify a cellular function for RSK2 and define a mechanism whereby growth factor signals mediated by RAS and MAPK are transmitted to the nucleus to activate gene expression.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Xing, J -- Ginty, D D -- Greenberg, M E -- CA43855/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- NS34814-01/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- P30-HD18655/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Aug 16;273(5277):959-63.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Program in Biological and Biomedical Sciences, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8688081" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    IRAK: a kinase associated with the interleukin-1 receptor (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-02-23
    Description: The pleiotropic biological activities of interleukin-1 (IL-1) are mediated by its type I receptor (IL-1RI). When the ligand binds, IL-1RI initiates a signaling cascade that results in the activation of the transcription regulator nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B). A protein kinase designated IRAK (IL-1 receptor-associated kinase) was purified, and its complementary DNA was molecularly cloned. When human embryonic kidney cells (cell line 293) over-expressing IL-1RI or HeLa cells were exposed to IL-1, IRAK rapidly associated with the IL-1RI complex and was phosphorylated. The primary amino acid sequence of IRAK shares similarity with that of Pelle, a protein kinase that is essential for the activation of a NF-kappa B homolog in Drosophila.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cao, Z -- Henzel, W J -- Gao, X -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Feb 23;271(5252):1128-31.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Molecular Biology Department, Tularik, Incorporated, South San Francisco, CA 94080, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8599092" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Missense mutations in the 695-amino acid form of the amyloid precursor protein (APP695) cosegregate with disease phenotype in families with dominantly inherited Alzheimer's disease. These mutations convert valine at position 642 to isoleucine, phenylalanine, or glycine. Expression of these mutant proteins, but not of normal APP695, was shown to induce nucleosomal DNA fragmentation in neuronal cells. Induction of DNA fragmentation required the cytoplasmic domain of the mutants and appeared to be mediated by heterotrimeric guanosine triphosphate-binding proteins (G proteins).〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yamatsuji, T -- Matsui, T -- Okamoto, T -- Komatsuzaki, K -- Takeda, S -- Fukumoto, H -- Iwatsubo, T -- Suzuki, N -- Asami-Odaka, A -- Ireland, S -- Kinane, T B -- Giambarella, U -- Nishimoto, I -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 31;272(5266):1349-52.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cardiovascular Research Center, Massachusetts General Hospital, Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Charlestown, MA 02129, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8650548" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Identification of an estrogen response element activated by metabolites of 17beta-estradiol and raloxifene (1996)

    Publication Date: 1996-08-30
    Description: 17beta-Estradiol modulates gene transcription through the estrogen receptor and the estrogen response element in DNA. The human transforming growth factor-beta3 gene was shown to be activated by the estrogen receptor in the presence of estrogen metabolites or estrogen antagonists. Activation was mediated by a polypurine sequence, termed the raloxifene response element, and did not require the DNA binding domain of the estrogen receptor. Interaction of the estrogen receptor with the raloxifene response element appears to require a cellular adapter protein. The observation that individual estrogens modulate multiple DNA response elements may explain the tissue-selective estrogen agonist or antagonist activity of compounds such as raloxifene.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yang, N N -- Venugopalan, M -- Hardikar, S -- Glasebrook, A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Aug 30;273(5279):1222-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Endocrine Research, Lilly Research Labs, Eli Lilly and Co., Indianapolis, IN 46285, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8703055" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Short-term plasticity of a thalamocortical pathway dynamically modulated by behavioral state (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-04-12
    Description: The neocortex receives information about the environment and the rest of the brain through pathways from the thalamus. These pathways have frequency-dependent properties that can strongly influence their effect on the neocortex. In 1943 Morison and Dempsey described "augmenting responses," a form of short-term plasticity in some thalamocortical pathways that is triggered by 8- to 15-hertz activation. Results from anesthetized rats showed that the augmenting response is initiated by pyramidal cells in layer V. The augmenting response was also observed in awake, unrestrained animals and was found to be dynamically modulated by their behavioral state.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Castro-Alamancos, M A -- Connors, B W -- MH19118/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- NS25983/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Apr 12;272(5259):274-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neuroscience, Brown University, Providence, RI 02912, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8602513" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) selectively bind to distinct members of the Trk family of tyrosine kinase receptors, but all three bind with similar affinities to the neurotrophin receptor p75 (p75NTR). The biological significance of neurotrophin binding to p75NTR in cells that also express Trk receptors has been difficult to ascertain. In the absence of TrkA, NGF binding to p75NGR activated the transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) in rat Schwann cells. This activation was not observed in Schwann cells isolated from mice that lacked p75NTR. The effect was selective for NGF; NF-kappa B was not activated by BDNF or NT-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Carter, B D -- Kaltschmidt, C -- Kaltschmidt, B -- Offenhauser, N -- Bohm-Matthaei, R -- Baeuerle, P A -- Barde, Y A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Apr 26;272(5261):542-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neurobiochemistry, Max-Planck Institute for Psychiatry, Martinsried, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8614802" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structural evidence for functional domains in the rat hippocampus (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-06-07
    Description: The hippocampus has two major outputs: multisynaptic pathways to the cerebral cortex and a massive descending projection directly to the lateral septal part of the basal ganglia. Here it is shown that the descending output is organized in such a way that different hippocampal regions map in an orderly way onto hypothalamic systems mediating the expression of different classes of goal-oriented behavior. This mapping is characterized by a unidirectional hippocampo-lateral septal projection and then by bidirectional lateral septo-hypothalamic projections, all topographically organized. The connectional evidence predicts that information processing in different regions of the hippocampus selectively influences the expression of different classes of behavior.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Risold, P Y -- Swanson, L W -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jun 7;272(5267):1484-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Program in Neural, Informational, and Behavioral Sciences, University of Southern California, Los Angeles 90089-2520, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8633241" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-24
    Description: The entorhinal cortex provides the major cortical input to the hippocampus, and both structures have been implicated in memory processes. The dynamics of neuronal circuits in the entorhinal-hippocampal system were studied in slices by optical imaging with high spatial and temporal resolution. Reverberation of neural activity was detected in the entorhinal cortex and was more prominent when the inhibition due to gamma-aminobutyric acid was slightly suppressed. Neural activity was transferred in a frequency-dependent way from the entorhinal cortex to the hippocampus. The entorhinal neuronal circuit could contribute to memory processes by holding information and selectively gating the entry of information into the hippocampus.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Iijima, T -- Witter, M P -- Ichikawa, M -- Tominaga, T -- Kajiwara, R -- Matsumoto, G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 24;272(5265):1176-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Molecular and Cellular Neuroscience Section, Electrotechnical Laboratory, Ibaraki, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8638163" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    PIN: an associated protein inhibitor of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-11-01
    Description: The neurotransmitter functions of nitric oxide are dependent on dynamic regulation of its biosynthetic enzyme, neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS). By means of a yeast two-hybrid screen, a 10-kilodalton protein was identified that physically interacts with and inhibits the activity of nNOS. This inhibitor, designated PIN, appears to be one of the most conserved proteins in nature, showing 92 percent amino acid identity with the nematode and rat homologs. Binding of PIN destabilizes the nNOS dimer, a conformation necessary for activity. These results suggest that PIN may regulate numerous biological processes through its effects on nitric oxide synthase activity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jaffrey, S R -- Snyder, S H -- DA00074/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- GM-07309/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Nov 1;274(5288):774-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neuroscience, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, 725 North Wolfe Street, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8864115" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Association of Src tyrosine kinase with a human potassium channel mediated by SH3 domain (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-12-20
    Description: The human Kv1.5 potassium channel (hKv1.5) contains proline-rich sequences identical to those that bind to Src homology 3 (SH3) domains. Direct association of the Src tyrosine kinase with cloned hKv1.5 and native hKv1.5 in human myocardium was observed. This interaction was mediated by the proline-rich motif of hKv1.5 and the SH3 domain of Src. Furthermore, hKv1.5 was tyrosine phosphorylated, and the channel current was suppressed, in cells coexpressing v-Src. These results provide direct biochemical evidence for a signaling complex composed of a potassium channel and a protein tyrosine kinase.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Holmes, T C -- Fadool, D A -- Ren, R -- Levitan, I B -- F32 NS009952/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Dec 20;274(5295):2089-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Volen Center for Complex Systems, Brandeis University, Waltham, MA 02254, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8953041" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Direct observation of protein solvation and discrete disorder with experimental crystallographic phases (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-01-05
    Description: A complete and accurate set of experimental crystallographic phases to a resolution of 1.8 angstroms was obtained for a 230-residue dimeric fragment of rat mannose-binding protein A with the use of multiwavelength anomalous dispersion (MAD) phasing. An accurate image of the crystal structure could thus be obtained without resort to phases calculated from a model. Partially reduced disulfide bonds, local disorder, and differences in the mobility of chemically equivalent molecules are apparent in the experimental electron density map. A solvation layer is visible that includes well-ordered sites of hydration around polar and charged protein atoms, as well as diffuse, partially disordered solvent shells around exposed hydrophobic groups. Because the experimental phases and the resulting electron density map are free from the influence of a model, they provide a stringent test of theoretical models of macromolecular solvation, motion, and conformational heterogeneity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Burling, F T -- Weis, W I -- Flaherty, K M -- Brunger, A T -- GM50565/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jan 5;271(5245):72-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8539602" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Presynaptic calcium current modulation by a metabotropic glutamate receptor (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-10-25
    Description: Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) regulate transmitter release at mammalian central synapses. However, because of the difficulty of recording from mammalian presynaptic terminals, the mechanism underlying mGluR-mediated presynaptic inhibition is not known. Here, simultaneous recordings from a giant presynaptic terminal, the calyx of Held, and its postsynaptic target in the medial nucleus of the trapezoid body were obtained in rat brainstem slices. Agonists of mGluRs suppressed a high voltage-activated P/Q-type calcium conductance in the presynaptic terminal, thereby inhibiting transmitter release at this glutamatergic synapse. Because several forms of presynaptic modulation and plasticity are mediated by mGluRs, this identification of a target ion channel is a first step toward elucidation of their molecular mechanism.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Takahashi, T -- Forsythe, I D -- Tsujimoto, T -- Barnes-Davies, M -- Onodera, K -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Oct 25;274(5287):594-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neurophysiology, Institute for Brain Research, Faculty of Medicine, University of Tokyo, Tokyo 113, Japan. ttakahas-tky@umin.u-tokyo.ac.jp〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8849448" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Requirement for BMP signaling in interdigital apoptosis and scale formation (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-03
    Description: Interdigital cell death leads to regression of soft tissue between embryonic digits in many vertebrates. Although the signals that regulate interdigital apoptosis are not known, BMPs--signaling molecules of the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily--are expressed interdigitally. A dominant negative type I BMP receptor (dnBMPR-IB) was used here to block BMP signaling. Expression of dnBMPR in chicken embryonic hind limbs greatly reduced interdigital apoptosis and resulted in webbed feet. In addition, scales were transformed into feathers. The similarity of the webbing to webbed duck feet led to studies that indicate that BMPs are not expressed in the duck interdigit. These results indicate BMP signaling actively mediates cell death in the embryonic limb.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zou, H -- Niswander, L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 3;272(5262):738-41.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Molecular Biology Program, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY 10021, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8614838" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Identification of scavenger receptor SR-BI as a high density lipoprotein receptor (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-01-26
    Description: High density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) are cholesterol transport particles whose plasma concentrations are directly (LDL) and inversely (HDL) correlated with risk for atherosclerosis. LDL catabolism involves cellular uptake and degradation of the entire particle by a well-characterized receptor. HDL, in contrast, selectively delivers its cholesterol, but not protein, to cells by unknown receptors. Here it is shown that the class B scavenger receptor SR-BI is an HDL receptor. SR-BI binds HDL with high affinity, is expressed primarily in liver and nonplacental steroidogenic tissues, and mediates selective cholesterol uptake by a mechanism distinct from the classic LDL receptor pathway.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Acton, S -- Rigotti, A -- Landschulz, K T -- Xu, S -- Hobbs, H H -- Krieger, M -- HL09047/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL41484/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL52212/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jan 26;271(5248):518-20.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge 02139, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8560269" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Lymphocyte apoptosis: mediation by increased type 3 inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-07-26
    Description: B and T lymphocytes undergoing apoptosis in response to anti-immunoglobulin M antibodies and dexamethasone, respectively, were found to have increased amounts of messenger RNA for the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) and increased amounts of IP3R protein. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that the augmented receptor population was localized to the plasma membrane. Type 3 IP3R (IP3R3) was selectively increased during apoptosis, with no enhancement of type 1 IP3R (IP3R1). Expression of IP3R3 antisense constructs in S49 T cells blocked dexamethasone-induced apoptosis, whereas IP3R3 sense, IP3R1 sense, or IP3R1 antisense control constructs did not block cell death. Thus, the increases in IP3R3 may be causally related to apoptosis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Khan, A A -- Soloski, M J -- Sharp, A H -- Schilling, G -- Sabatini, D M -- Li, S H -- Ross, C A -- Snyder, S H -- AI-20922/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI-37934/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- MH43040/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jul 26;273(5274):503-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neuroscience, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8662540" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Requirement of an ICE-like protease for induction of apoptosis and ceramide generation by REAPER (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-02-09
    Description: Genetic studies indicated that the Drosophila melanogaster protein REAPER (RPR) controls apoptosis during embryo development. Induction of RPR expression in Drosophila Schneider cells rapidly stimulated apoptosis. RPR-mediated apoptosis was blocked by N-benzyloxycarbonyl-Val-Ala-Asp-fluoromethylketone (Z-VAD-fmk), which suggests that an interleukin-1 beta converting enzyme (ICE)-like protease is required for RPR function. RPR-induced apoptosis was associated with increased ceramide production that was also blocked by Z-VAD-fmk, which suggests that ceramide generation requires an ICE-like protease as well. Thus, the intracellular RPR protein uses cell death signaling pathways similar to those used by the vertebrate transmembrane receptors Fas (CD95) and tumor necrosis factor receptor type 1.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Pronk, G J -- Ramer, K -- Amiri, P -- Williams, L T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Feb 9;271(5250):808-10.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Chiron Corporation, Emeryville, CA 94608, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8628997" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Pycnodysostosis, a lysosomal disease caused by cathepsin K deficiency (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-08-30
    Description: Pycnodysostosis, an autosomal recessive osteochondrodysplasia characterized by osteosclerosis and short stature, maps to chromosome 1q21. Cathepsin K, a cysteine protease gene that is highly expressed in osteoclasts, localized to the pycnodysostosis region. Nonsense, missense, and stop codon mutations in the gene encoding cathepsin K were identified in patients. Transient expression of complementary DNA containing the stop codon mutation resulted in messenger RNA but no immunologically detectable protein. Thus, pycnodysostosis results from gene defects in a lysosomal protease with highest expression in osteoclasts. These findings suggest that cathepsin K is a major protease in bone resorption, providing a possible rationale for the treatment of disorders such as osteoporosis and certain forms of arthritis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gelb, B D -- Shi, G P -- Chapman, H A -- Desnick, R J -- R01 DK31775/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL44816/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R37 DK34045/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Aug 30;273(5279):1236-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Human Genetics and Division of Pediatric Cardiology, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York, NY 10029, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8703060" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-09-20
    Description: Members of a previously unidentified family of potassium channel subunits were cloned from rat and human brain. The messenger RNAs encoding these subunits were widely expressed in brain with distinct yet overlapping patterns, as well as in several peripheral tissues. Expression of the messenger RNAs in Xenopus oocytes resulted in calcium-activated, voltage-independent potassium channels. The channels that formed from the various subunits displayed differential sensitivity to apamin and tubocurare. The distribution, function, and pharmacology of these channels are consistent with the SK class of small-conductance, calcium-activated potassium channels, which contribute to the afterhyperpolarization in central neurons and other cell types.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kohler, M -- Hirschberg, B -- Bond, C T -- Kinzie, J M -- Marrion, N V -- Maylie, J -- Adelman, J P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Sep 20;273(5282):1709-14.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Vollum Institute, L-474, Oregon Health Sciences University, 3181 Southwest Sam Jackson Road, Portland, OR 97201, USA.

    Activation of Pyk2 by stress signals and coupling with JNK signaling pathway (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-08-09
    Description: The c-Jun amino-terminal kinase (JNK) is activated by various heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptors, inflammatory cytokines, and stress signals. Yet, upstream mediators that link extracellular signals with the JNK signaling pathway are currently unknown. The tyrosine kinase Pyk2 was activated by tumor necrosis factor alpha, by ultraviolet irradiation, and by changes in osmolarity. Overexpression of Pyk2 led to activation of JNK, and a dominant-negative mutant of Pyk2 interfered with ultraviolet light- or osmotic shock-induced activation of JNK. Pyk2 represents a cell type-specific, stress-sensitive mediator of the JNK signaling pathway.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tokiwa, G -- Dikic, I -- Lev, S -- Schlessinger, J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Aug 9;273(5276):792-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, New York University Medical Center, 550 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8670418" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publication Date: 1996-06-21
    Description: The paradigm of antigenic variation in parasites is the variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) of African trypanosomes. Only one VSG is expressed at any time, except for short periods during switching. The reasons for this pattern of expression and the consequences of expressing more than one VSG are unknown. Trypanosoma brucei was genetically manipulated to generate cell lines that expressed two VSGs simultaneously. These VSGs were produced in equal amounts and were homogeneously distributed on the trypanosome surface. The double-expressor cells had similar population doubling times and were as infective as wild-type cells. Thus, the simultaneous expression of two VSGs is not intrinsically harmful.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Munoz-Jordan, J L -- Davies, K P -- Cross, G A -- AI 21531/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jun 21;272(5269):1795-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Molecular Parasitology, Rockefeller University, New York 10012, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8650579" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Nonselective and G betagamma-insensitive weaver K+ channels (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-06-28
    Description: Homozygous weaver mice are profoundly ataxic because of the loss of granule cell neurons during cerebellar development. This granule cell loss appears to be caused by a genetic defect in the pore region (Gly156--〉Ser) of the heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein)-gated inwardly rectifying potassium (K+) channel subunit (GIRK2). A related subunit, GIRK1, associates with GIRK2 to constitute a neuronal G protein-gated inward rectifier K+ channel. The weaver allele of the GIRK2 subunit (wvGIRK2) caused loss of K+ selectivity when expressed either as wvGIRK2 homomultimers or as GIRK1-wvGIRK2 heteromultimers. The mutation also let to loss of sensitivity to G protein betagamma dimers. Expression of wvGIRK2 subunits let to increased cell death, presumably as a result of basal nonselective channel opening.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Navarro, B -- Kennedy, M E -- Velimirovic, B -- Bhat, D -- Peterson, A S -- Clapham, D E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jun 28;272(5270):1950-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, Mayo Foundation, Rochester, Minnesota 55905, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8658170" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

ALG-2 codes for a Ca(2+)-binding protein required for T cell receptor-, Fas-, and glucocorticoid-induced cell death. ALG-3, a partial complementary DNA that is homologous to the familial Alzheimer's disease gene STM2, rescues a T cell hybridoma from T cell receptor- and Fas-induced apoptosis. These findings suggest that ALG-2 may mediate Ca(2+)-regulated signals along the death pathway and that cell death may play a role in Alzheimer's disease.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Vito, P -- Lacana, E -- D'Adamio, L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jan 26;271(5248):521-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉T Cell Molecular Biology Unit, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8560270" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Blockage by adenovirus E4orf6 of transcriptional activation by the p53 tumor suppressor (1996)

    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-06-07
    Description: The adenovirus E4orf6 protein is shown here to interact with the cellular tumor suppressor protein p53 and to block p53-mediated transcriptional activation. The adenovirus protein inhibited the ability of p53 to bind to human TAFII31, a component of transcription factor IID (TFIID). Earlier work demonstrated that the interaction of p53 with TAFII31 involves a sequence near the NH2-terminus of p53, whereas the E4orf6-p53 interaction occurs within amino acids 318 to 360 of p53. Thus, the E4orf6 protein interacts at a site on p53 distinct from the domain that binds to TAFII31 but nevertheless inhibits the p53-TAFII31 interaction.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dobner, T -- Horikoshi, N -- Rubenwolf, S -- Shenk, T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jun 7;272(5267):1470-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institut fur Medizinische Mikrobiologie und Hygiene, Universitat Regensburg, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8633237" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Immunostimulatory DNA sequences necessary for effective intradermal gene immunization (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-07-19
    Description: Vaccination with naked DNA elicits cellular and humoral immune responses that have a T helper cell type 1 bias. However, plasmid vectors expressing large amounts of gene product do not necessarily induce immune responses to the encoded antigens. Instead, the immunogenicity of plasmid DNA (pDNA) requires short immunostimulatory DNA sequences (ISS) that contain a CpG dinucleotide in a particular base context. Human monocytes transfected with pDNA or double-stranded oligonucleotides containing the ISS, but not those transfected with ISS-deficient pDNA or oligonucleotides, transcribed large amounts of interferon-alpha, interferon-beta, and interleukin-12. Although ISS are necessary for gene vaccination, they down-regulate gene expression and thus may interfere with gene replacement therapy by inducing proinflammatory cytokines.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sato, Y -- Roman, M -- Tighe, H -- Lee, D -- Corr, M -- Nguyen, M D -- Silverman, G J -- Lotz, M -- Carson, D A -- Raz, E -- AI36214/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI37305/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AR41897/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jul 19;273(5273):352-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine and The Sam and Rose Stein Institute for Research on Aging, University of California, San Diego, 9500 Gilman Drive, La Jolla, CA 92093-0663, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8662521" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Enhancement of antitumor immunity by CTLA-4 blockade (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-03-22
    Description: One reason for the poor immunogenicity of many tumors may be that they cannot provide signals for CD28-mediated costimulation necessary to fully activate T cells. It has recently become apparent that CTLA-4, a second counterreceptor for the B7 family of costimulatory molecules, is a negative regulator of T cell activation. Here, in vivo administration of antibodies to CTLA-4 resulted in the rejection of tumors, including preestablished tumors. Furthermore, this rejection resulted in immunity to a secondary exposure to tumor cells. These results suggest that blockade of the inhibitory effects of CTLA-4 can allow for, and potentiate, effective immune responses against tumor cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Leach, D R -- Krummel, M F -- Allison, J P -- CA09179/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA40041/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA57986/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Mar 22;271(5256):1734-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cancer Research Laboratory, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8596936" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    An essential role for NF-kappaB in preventing TNF-alpha-induced cell death (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-11-01
    Description: Studies on mice deficient in nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB) subunits have shown that this transcription factor is important for lymphocyte responses to antigens and cytokine-inducible gene expression. In particular, the RelA (p65) subunit is required for induction of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)-dependent genes. Treatment of RelA-deficient (RelA-/-) mouse fibroblasts and macrophages with TNF-alpha resulted in a significant reduction in viability, whereas RelA+/+ cells were unaffected. Cytotoxicity to both cell types was mediated by TNF receptor 1. Reintroduction of RelA into RelA-/- fibroblasts resulted in enhanced survival, demonstrating that the presence of RelA is required for protection from TNF-alpha. These results have implications for the treatment of inflammatory and proliferative diseases.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Beg, A A -- Baltimore, D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Nov 1;274(5288):782-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8864118" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Luteinizing hormone deficiency and female infertility in mice lacking the transcription factor NGFI-A (Egr-1) (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-08-30
    Description: The immediate-early transcription factor NGFI-A (also called Egr-1, zif/268, or Krox-24) is thought to couple extracellular signals to changes in gene expression. Although activins and inhibins regulate follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) synthesis, no factor has been identified that exclusively regulates luteinizing hormone (LH) synthesis. An analysis of NGFI-A-deficient mice derived from embryonic stem cells demonstrated female infertility that was secondary to LH-beta deficiency. Ovariectomy led to increased amounts of FSH-beta but not LH-beta messenger RNA, which suggested a pituitary defect. A conserved, canonical NGFI-A site in the LH-beta promoter was required for synergistic activation by NGFI-A and steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1). NGFI-A apparently influences female reproductive capacity through its regulation of LH-beta transcription.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lee, S L -- Sadovsky, Y -- Swirnoff, A H -- Polish, J A -- Goda, P -- Gavrilina, G -- Milbrandt, J -- CA53524/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Aug 30;273(5279):1219-21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO 63110, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8703054" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Association of anxiety-related traits with a polymorphism in the serotonin transporter gene regulatory region (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-11-29
    Description: Transporter-facilitated uptake of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT) has been implicated in anxiety in humans and animal models and is the site of action of widely used uptake-inhibiting antidepressant and antianxiety drugs. Human 5-HT transporter (5-HTT) gene transcription is modulated by a common polymorphism in its upstream regulatory region. The short variant of the polymorphism reduces the transcriptional efficiency of the 5-HTT gene promoter, resulting in decreased 5-HTT expression and 5-HT uptake in lymphoblasts. Association studies in two independent samples totaling 505 individuals revealed that the 5-HTT polymorphism accounts for 3 to 4 percent of total variation and 7 to 9 percent of inherited variance in anxiety-related personality traits in individuals as well as sibships.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lesch, K P -- Bengel, D -- Heils, A -- Sabol, S Z -- Greenberg, B D -- Petri, S -- Benjamin, J -- Muller, C R -- Hamer, D H -- Murphy, D L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Nov 29;274(5292):1527-31.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Psychiatry, University of Wurzburg, Fuchsleinstrasse 15, 97080 Wurzburg, Germany. kplesch@rzbox.uni-wuerzburg.de〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8929413" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Role of GTP hydrolysis in fission of caveolae directly from plasma membranes (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-10-11
    Description: Caveolae are specialized invaginated cell surface microdomains of undefined function. A cell-free system that reconstituted fission of caveolae from lung endothelial plasma membranes was developed. Addition of cytosol and the hydrolysis of guanosine triphosphate (GTP) induced caveolar fission. The budded caveolae were isolated as vesicles rich in caveolin and the sialoglycolipid GM1 but not glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins. These vesicles contained the molecular machinery for endocytosis and transcytosis. In permeabilized endothelial cells, GTP stimulated, whereas GTPgammaS prevented, caveolar budding and endocytosis of the cholera toxin B chain to endosomes. Thus, caveolae may bud to form discrete carrier vesicles that participate in membrane trafficking.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schnitzer, J E -- Oh, P -- McIntosh, D P -- HL43278/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL52766/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Oct 11;274(5285):239-42.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, Harvard Medical School, Beth Israel Hospital, Boston, MA 02215, USA. jschnitz@bih.harvard.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8824187" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Mutagenesis in mammalian cells induced by triple helix formation and transcription-coupled repair (1996)

    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-02-09
    Description: When mammalian cells were treated with triplex-forming oligonucleotides of sufficient binding affinity, mutations were specifically induced in a simian virus 40 vector contained within the cells. Triplex-induced mutagenesis was not detected in xeroderma pigmentosum group A cells nor in Cockayne's syndrome group B cells, indicating a requirement for excision repair and for transcription-coupled repair, respectively, in the process. Triplex formation was also found to stimulate DNA repair synthesis in human cell extracts, in a pattern correlating with the inhibition of transcription in such extracts. These findings may have implications for therapeutic applications of triplex DNA and raise the possibility that naturally occurring triple helices are a source of genetic instability.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wang, G -- Seidman, M M -- Glazer, P M -- CA64186/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- ES05775/ES/NIEHS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Feb 9;271(5250):802-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Therapeutic Radiology, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT 06520-8040, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8628995" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A role for brassinosteroids in light-dependent development of Arabidopsis (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-04-19
    Description: Although steroid hormones are important for animal development, the physiological role of plant steroids is unknown. The Arabidopsis DET2 gene encodes a protein that shares significant sequence identity with mammalian steroid 5 alpha-reductases. A mutation of glutamate 204, which is absolutely required for the activity of human steroid reductase, abolishes the in vivo activity of DET2 and leads to defects in light-regulated development that can be ameliorated by application of a plant steroid, brassinolide. Thus, DET2 may encode a reductase in the brassinolide biosynthetic pathway, and brassinosteroids may constitute a distinct class of phytohormones with an important role in light-regulated development of higher plants.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Li, J -- Nagpal, P -- Vitart, V -- McMorris, T C -- Chory, J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Apr 19;272(5260):398-401.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Plant Biology Laboratory, Salk Institute, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8602526" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Resistance to apoptosis conferred by Cdk inhibitors during myocyte differentiation (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-07-19
    Description: Proliferating murine C2C12 myoblasts can undergo either terminal differentiation or programmed cell death under conditions of mitogen deprivation. Unlike myoblasts, differentiated myotubes were resistant to apoptosis. During myogenesis the appearance of the apoptosis-resistant phenotype was correlated with the induction of the cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) inhibitor p21(CIP1) but not with the appearance of myogenin, a marker expressed earlier in differentiation. Forced expression of the Cdk inhibitors p21(CIP1) or p16(INK4A) blocked apoptosis during myocyte differentiation. These data indicate that induction of Cdk inhibitors may serve to protect differentiating myocytes from programmed cell death as well as play a role in establishing the postmitotic state.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3641673/" 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/PMC3641673/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wang, J -- Walsh, K -- AR40197/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- HL50692/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG015052/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AR040197/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jul 19;273(5273):359-61.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Cardiovascular Research, St. Elizabeth's Medical Center and Tufts University School of Medicine, Boston, MA 02135, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8662523" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Patients with human severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) can be divided into those with B lymphocytes (B+ SCID) and those without (B- SCID). Although several genetic causes are known for B+ SCID, the etiology of B- SCID has not been defined. Six of 14 B- SCID patients tested were found to carry a mutation of the recombinase activating gene 1 (RAG-1), RAG-2, or both. This mutation resulted in a functional inability to form antigen receptors through genetic recombination and links a defect in one of the site-specific recombination systems to a human disease.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schwarz, K -- Gauss, G H -- Ludwig, L -- Pannicke, U -- Li, Z -- Lindner, D -- Friedrich, W -- Seger, R A -- Hansen-Hagge, T E -- Desiderio, S -- Lieber, M R -- Bartram, C R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Oct 4;274(5284):97-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Section of Molecular Biology, University of Ulm, D-89070 Ulm, Germany.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8810255" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    NF-AT-Driven interleukin-4 transcription potentiated by NIP45 (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-12-13
    Description: The induction of cytokine gene transcription is mediated in part by the nuclear factor of activated T cells (NF-AT). Factors involved in the mechanisms of NF-AT-mediated transcription are not well understood. A nuclear factor that interacted with the Rel homology domain (RHD) of NF-ATp was identified with the use of a two-hybrid interaction trap. Designated NIP45 (NF-AT interacting protein), it has minimal similarity to any known genes. Transcripts encoding this factor were enriched in lymphoid tissues and testes. NIP45 synergized with NF-ATp and the proto-oncogene c-Maf to activate the interleukin-4 (IL-4) cytokine promoter; transient overexpression of NIP45 with NF-ATp and c-maf in B lymphoma cells induced measurable endogenous IL-4 protein production. The identification of NIP45 advances our understanding of gene activation of cytokines, critical mediators of the immune response.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hodge, M R -- Chun, H J -- Rengarajan, J -- Alt, A -- Lieberson, R -- Glimcher, L H -- AI37833/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Dec 13;274(5294):1903-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cancer Biology, Harvard School of Public Health and Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8943202" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A receptor in pituitary and hypothalamus that functions in growth hormone release (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-08-16
    Description: Small synthetic molecules termed growth hormone secretagogues (GHSs) act on the pituitary gland and the hypothalamus to stimulate and amplify pulsatile growth hormone (GH) release. A heterotrimeric GTP-binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptor (GPC-R) of the pituitary and arcuate ventro-medial and infundibular hypothalamus of swine and humans was cloned and was shown to be the target of the GHSs. On the basis of its pharmacological and molecular characterization, this GPC-R defines a neuroendocrine pathway for the control of pulsatile GH release and supports the notion that the GHSs mimic an undiscovered hormone.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Howard, A D -- Feighner, S D -- Cully, D F -- Arena, J P -- Liberator, P A -- Rosenblum, C I -- Hamelin, M -- Hreniuk, D L -- Palyha, O C -- Anderson, J -- Paress, P S -- Diaz, C -- Chou, M -- Liu, K K -- McKee, K K -- Pong, S S -- Chaung, L Y -- Elbrecht, A -- Dashkevicz, M -- Heavens, R -- Rigby, M -- Sirinathsinghji, D J -- Dean, D C -- Melillo, D G -- Patchett, A A -- Nargund, R -- Griffin, P R -- DeMartino, J A -- Gupta, S K -- Schaeffer, J M -- Smith, R G -- Van der Ploeg, L H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Aug 16;273(5277):974-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Merck Research Laboratories, Rahway, NJ 07065, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8688086" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Inhibition of adipogenesis through MAP kinase-mediated phosphorylation of PPARgamma (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-12-20
    Description: Adipocyte differentiation is an important component of obesity and other metabolic diseases. This process is strongly inhibited by many mitogens and oncogenes. Several growth factors that inhibit fat cell differentiation caused mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase-mediated phosphorylation of the dominant adipogenic transcription factor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) and reduction of its transcriptional activity. Expression of PPARgamma with a nonphosphorylatable mutation at this site (serine-112) yielded cells with increased sensitivity to ligand-induced adipogenesis and resistance to inhibition of differentiation by mitogens. These results indicate that covalent modification of PPARgamma by serum and growth factors is a major regulator of the balance between cell growth and differentiation in the adipose cell lineage.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hu, E -- Kim, J B -- Sarraf, P -- Spiegelman, B M -- R37DK31405/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Dec 20;274(5295):2100-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Department of Cell Biology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8953045" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Altered reactivity of superoxide dismutase in familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-01-26
    Description: A subset of individuals with familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS) possesses dominantly inherited mutations in the gene that encodes copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD). A4V and G93A, two of the mutant enzymes associated with FALS, were shown to catalyze the oxidation of a model substrate (spin trap 5,5'-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide) by hydrogen peroxide at a higher rate than that seen with the wild-type enzyme. Catalysis of this reaction by A4V and G93A was more sensitive to inhibition by the copper chelators diethyldithiocarbamate and penicillamine than was catalysis by wild-type CuZnSOD. The same two chelators reversed the apoptosis-inducing effect of mutant enzymes expressed in a neural cell line. These results suggest that oxidative reactions catalyzed by mutant CuZnSOD enzymes initiate the neuropathologic changes in FALS.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wiedau-Pazos, M -- Goto, J J -- Rabizadeh, S -- Gralla, E B -- Roe, J A -- Lee, M K -- Valentine, J S -- Bredesen, D E -- AG12282/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- DK46828/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- GM28222/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jan 26;271(5248):515-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of California, Los Angeles 90095, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8560268" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publication Date: 1996-05-10
    Description: A cofactor for HIV-1 (human immunodeficiency virus-type 1) fusion and entry was identified with the use of a novel functional complementary DNA (cDNA) cloning strategy. This protein, designated "fusin," is a putative G protein-coupled receptor with seven transmembrane segments. Recombinant fusin enabled CD4-expressing nonhuman cell types to support HIV-1 Env-mediated cell fusion and HIV-1 infection. Antibodies to fusin blocked cell fusion and infection with normal CD4-positive human target cells. Fusin messenger RNA levels correlated with HIV-1 permissiveness in diverse human cell types. Fusin acted preferentially for T cell line-tropic isolates, in comparison to its activity with macrophagetropic HIV-1 isolates.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Feng, Y -- Broder, C C -- Kennedy, P E -- Berger, E A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 10;272(5263):872-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Viral Diseases, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8629022" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-03
    Description: The vascular complications of diabetes mellitus have been correlated with enhanced activation of protein kinase C (PKC). LY333531, a specific inhibitor of the beta isoform of PKC, was synthesized and was shown to be a competitive reversible inhibitor of PKC beta 1 and beta 2, with a half-maximal inhibitory constant of approximately 5 nM; this value was one-fiftieth of that for other PKC isoenzymes and one-thousandth of that for non-PKC kinases. When administered orally, LY333531 ameliorated the glomerular filtration rate, albumin excretion rate, and retinal circulation in diabetic rats in a dose-responsive manner, in parallel with its inhibition of PKC activities.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ishii, H -- Jirousek, M R -- Koya, D -- Takagi, C -- Xia, P -- Clermont, A -- Bursell, S E -- Kern, T S -- Ballas, L M -- Heath, W F -- Stramm, L E -- Feener, E P -- King, G L -- DK36836/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- EY05110-11/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 3;272(5262):728-31.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Research Division, Joslin Diabetes Center, Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02215, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8614835" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-11-01
    Description: CD22 is a surface glycoprotein of B lymphocytes that is rapidly phosphorylated on cytoplasmic tyrosines after antigen receptor cross-linking. Splenic B cells from mice with a disrupted CD22 gene were found to be hyperresponsive to receptor signaling: Heightened calcium fluxes and cell proliferation were obtained at lower ligand concentrations. The mice gave an augmented immune response, had an expanded peritoneal B-1 cell population, and contained increased serum titers of autoantibody. Thus, CD22 is a negative regulator of antigen receptor signaling whose onset of expression at the mature B cell stage may serve to raise the antigen concentration threshold required for B cell triggering.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉O'Keefe, T L -- Williams, G T -- Davies, S L -- Neuberger, M S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Nov 1;274(5288):798-801.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Hills Road, Cambridge CB2 2QH, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8864124" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Opposite modulation of cocaine-seeking behavior by D1- and D2-like dopamine receptor agonists (1996)

    Publication Date: 1996-03-15
    Description: Activation of the mesolimbic dopamine system is known to trigger relapse in animal models of cocaine-seeking behavior. We found that this "priming" effect was selectively induced by D2-like, and not by D1-like, dopamine receptor agonists in rats. Moreover, D1-like receptor agonists prevented cocaine-seeking behavior induced by cocaine itself, whereas D2-like receptor agonists enhanced this behavior. These results demonstrate an important dissociation between D1- and D2-like receptor processes in cocaine-seeking behavior and support further evaluation of D1-like receptor agonists as a possible pharmacotherapy for cocaine addiction.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Self, D W -- Barnhart, W J -- Lehman, D A -- Nestler, E J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Mar 15;271(5255):1586-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Molecular Psychiatry, Department of Psychiatry, Yale University School of Medicine, Connecticut Mental Health Center, New Haven, 06508, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8599115" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Analysis of strontium-induced asynchronous release of quanta from stimulated synapses revealed that long-term potentiation and long-term depression in the CA1 region of the mammalian hippocampus are associated with an increase and a decrease, respectively, in quantal size. At a single set of synapses, the increase in quantal size seen with long-term potentiation was completely reversed by depotentiating stimuli. Long-term potentiation and depression are also associated with an increase and decrease, respectively, in the frequency of quantal events, consistent with an all-or-none regulation (up or down) of clusters of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors, a change in the release of transmitter, or both.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Oliet, S H -- Malenka, R C -- Nicoll, R A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Mar 1;271(5253):1294-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cellular and Molecular Pharmacology, University of California, San Francisco 94143-0450, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8638114" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Zinc-induced collapse of augmented inhibition by GABA in a temporal lobe epilepsy model (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-01-19
    Description: In the kindling model of temporal lobe epilepsy, several physiological indicators of inhibition by gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the hippocampal dentate gyrus are consistent with an augmented, rather than a diminished, inhibition. In brain slices obtained from epileptic (kindled) rats, the excitatory drive onto inhibitory interneurons was increased and was paralleled by a reduction in the presynaptic autoinhibition of GABA release. This augmented inhibition was sensitive to zinc most likely after a molecular reorganization of GABAA receptor subunits. Consequently, during seizures, inhibition by GABA may be diminished by the zinc released from aberrantly sprouted mossy fiber terminals of granule cells, which are found in many experimental models of epilepsy and in human temporal lobe epilepsy.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Buhl, E H -- Otis, T S -- Mody, I -- NS 12151/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS 30549/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jan 19;271(5247):369-73.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Anatomical Neuropharmacology Unit, Oxford University, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8553076" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Direct regulation of ZAP-70 by SHP-1 in T cell antigen receptor signaling (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-24
    Description: The threshold at which antigen triggers lymphocyte activation is set by the enzymes that regulate tyrosine phosphorylation. Upon T cell activation, the protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 was found to bind to the protein tyrosine kinase ZAP-70. This interaction resulted in an increase in SHP-1 phosphatase activity and a decrease in ZAP-70 kinase activity. Expression of a dominant negative mutant of SHP-1 in T cells increased the sensitivity of the antigen receptor. Thus, SHP-1 functions as a negative regulator of the T cell antigen receptor and in setting the threshold of activation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Plas, D R -- Johnson, R -- Pingel, J T -- Matthews, R J -- Dalton, M -- Roy, G -- Chan, A C -- Thomas, M L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 24;272(5265):1173-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Center for Immunology, Washington University Medical School, St Louis, Missouri 63110, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8638162" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Angiotensin II-forming activity in a reconstructed ancestral chymase (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-01-26
    Description: The current model of serine protease diversity theorizes that the earliest protease molecules were simple digestive enzymes that gained complex regulatory functions and restricted substrate specificities through evolution. Among the chymase group of serine proteases are enzymes that convert angiotensin I to angiotensin II, as well as others that simply degrade angiotensins. An ancestral chymase reconstructed with the use of phylogenetic inference, total gene synthesis, and protein expression had efficient and specific angiotensin II-forming activity (turnover number, about 700 per second). Thus, angiotensin II-forming activity is the more primitive state for chymases, and the loss of such activity occurred later in the evolution of some of these serine proteases.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chandrasekharan, U M -- Sanker, S -- Glynias, M J -- Karnik, S S -- Husain, A -- HL33713/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL44201/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jan 26;271(5248):502-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Cardiology, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, OH 44195, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8560264" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Increase in single L-type calcium channels in hippocampal neurons during aging (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-17
    Description: Voltage-activated calcium (Ca2+) influx is increased in mammalian CA1 hippocampal neurons during aging. However, the molecular basis for this elevation is not known. The partially dissociated hippocampal ("zipper") slice preparation was used to analyze single Ca2+ channel activity in CA1 neurons of adult and aged rats. Total L-type Ca2+ channel activity in patches was found to increase with aging, primarily because of an increase in the density of functional channels. Learning in aged animals was inversely correlated with channel density. This increase in functional Ca2+ channels with aging could underlie the vulnerability of neurons to age-associated neurodegenerative conditions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Thibault, O -- Landfield, P W -- AG04542/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- AG10836/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 17;272(5264):1017-20.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pharmacology, College of Medicine, University of Kentucky, Lexington 40536-0084, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8638124" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Requirement of CDC42 for Salmonella-induced cytoskeletal and nuclear responses (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-12-20
    Description: The bacterial pathogen Salmonella typhimurium triggers host cell signaling pathways that lead to cytoskeletal and nuclear responses required for pathogenesis. Here, the role of the small guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-binding protein CDC42Hs in these responses was examined. Expression of a dominant interfering mutant of CDC42 (CDC42HsN17) prevented S. typhimurium-induced cytoskeletal reorganization and subsequent macropinocytosis and bacterial internalization into host cells. Cells expressing constitutively active CDC42 (CDC42HsV12) internalized an S. typhimurium mutant unable to trigger host cell responses. Furthermore, expression of CDC42HsN17 prevented S. typhimurium-induced JNK kinase activation. These results indicate that CDC42 is required for bacterial invasion and induction of nuclear responses in host cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chen, L M -- Hobbie, S -- Galan, J E -- GM52543/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Dec 20;274(5295):2115-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology, School of Medicine, State University of New York at Stony Brook, Stony Brook, NY, 11794-5222, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8953049" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publication Date: 1996-03-01
    Description: The molecular mechanism behind affinity maturation is the introduction of point mutations in immunoglobulin (Ig) V genes, followed by the selective proliferation of B cells expressing mutants with increased affinity for antigen. An in vitro culture system was developed in which somatic hypermutation of Ig V genes was sustained in primed B cells. Cognate T cell help and cross-linking of the surface Ig were required, whereas the addition of lipopolysaccharide or a CD40 ligand to drive proliferation was insufficient. This system should facilitate understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms that regulate somatic mutation and B cell selection.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kallberg, E -- Jainandunsing, S -- Gray, D -- Leanderson, T -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Mar 1;271(5253):1285-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Immunology Unit, Lund University, Sweden.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8638111" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-03
    Description: Signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) proteins can be conditionally activated in response to epidermal growth factor (EGF) and interferon (IFN)-gamma. STAT activation was correlated with cell growth inhibition in response to EGF and IFN-gamma. Activated STAT proteins specifically recognized the conserved STAT-responsive elements in the promoter of the gene encoding the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor p21 WAF1/CIP1 and regulated the induction of p21 messenger RNA. IFN-gamma did not inhibit the growth of U3A cells, which are deficient in STAT1, but did inhibit the growth of U3A cells into which STAT1 alpha was reintroduced. Thus, STAT1 protein is essential for cell growth suppression in response to IFN-gamma. The STAT signaling pathway appears to negatively regulate the cell cycle by inducing CDK inhibitors in response to cytokines.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chin, Y E -- Kitagawa, M -- Su, W C -- You, Z H -- Iwamoto, Y -- Fu, X Y -- R01 AI34522/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 3;272(5262):719-22.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT 06520-8023, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8614832" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Signal transduction by DR3, a death domain-containing receptor related to TNFR-1 and CD95 (1996)

    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-11-08
    Description: Tumor necrosis factor receptor-1 (TNFR-1) and CD95 (also called Fas or APO-1) are cytokine receptors that engage the apoptosis pathway through a region of intracellular homology, designated the "death domain." Another death domain-containing member of the TNFR family, death receptor 3 (DR3), was identified and was shown to induce both apoptosis and activation of nuclear factor kappaB. Expression of DR3 appears to be restricted to tissues enriched in lymphocytes. DR3 signal transduction is mediated by a complex of intracellular signaling molecules including TRADD, TRAF2, FADD, and FLICE. Thus, DR3 likely plays a role in regulating lymphocyte homeostasis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chinnaiyan, A M -- O'Rourke, K -- Yu, G L -- Lyons, R H -- Garg, M -- Duan, D R -- Xing, L -- Gentz, R -- Ni, J -- Dixit, V M -- GM-07863/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Nov 8;274(5289):990-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pathology, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA.

    Description: CD1 proteins have been implicated as antigen-presenting molecules for T cell-mediated immune responses, but their intracellular localization and trafficking remain uncharacterized. CD1b, a member of this family that presents microbial lipid antigens of exogenous origin, was found to localize to endocytic compartments that included the same specialized subset of endosomes in which major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules are proposed to bind endocytosed antigens. Unlike MHC class II molecules, which traffic to antigen-loading endosomal compartments [MHC class II compartments (MIICs)] primarily as a consequence of their association with the invariant chain, localization of CD1b to these compartments was dependent on a tyrosine-based motif in its own cytoplasmic tail.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sugita, M -- Jackman, R M -- van Donselaar, E -- Behar, S M -- Rogers, R A -- Peters, P J -- Brenner, M B -- Porcelli, S A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jul 19;273(5273):349-52.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Lymphocyte Biology Section, Division of Rheumatology and Immunology, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8662520" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-12-06
    Description: Pharmacological studies support the idea that nitric oxide (NO) serves as a retrograde messenger during long-term potentiation (LTP) in area CA1 of the hippocampus. Mice with a defective form of the gene for neuronal NO synthase (nNOS), however, exhibit normal LTP. The myristoyl protein endothelial NOS (eNOS) is present in the dendrites of CA1 neurons. Recombinant adenovirus vectors containing either a truncated eNOS (a putative dominant negative) or an eNOS fused to a transmembrane protein were used to demonstrate that membrane-targeted eNOS is required for LTP. The membrane localization of eNOS may optimally position the enzyme both to respond to Ca2+ influx and to release NO into the extracellular space during LTP induction.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kantor, D B -- Lanzrein, M -- Stary, S J -- Sandoval, G M -- Smith, W B -- Sullivan, B M -- Davidson, N -- Schuman, E M -- 49176/PHS HHS/ -- NS37292/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Dec 6;274(5293):1744-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Biology 216-76, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA. schumane@cco.caltech.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8939872" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Multiple pathways of protein degradation operate within cells. A selective protein import pathway exists for the uptake and degradation of particular cytosolic proteins by lysosomes. Here, the lysosomal membrane glycoprotein LGP96 was identified as a receptor for the selective import and degradation of proteins within lysosomes. Specific substrates of this proteolytic pathway bound to the cytosolic tail of a 96-kilodalton lysosomal membrane protein in two different binding assays. Overexpression of human LGP96 in Chinese hamster ovary cells increased the activity of the selective lysosomal proteolytic pathway in vivo and in vitro.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cuervo, A M -- Dice, J F -- AG06116/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jul 26;273(5274):501-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Physiology, Tufts University School of Medicine, 136 Harrison Avenue, Boston, MA 02111, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8662539" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Enhanced degradation of EGF receptors by a sorting nexin, SNX1 (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-17
    Description: The vectorial movement of proteins requires specific recognition by components of the vesicular trafficking machinery. A protein, sorting nexin-1 (SNX1), was identified in a human cell line that bound to a region of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) containing the lysosomal targeting code. SNX1 contains a region of homology to a yeast vacuolar sorting protein, and overexpression of SNX1 decreased the amount of EGFR on the cell surface as a result of enhanced rates of constitutive and ligand-induced degradation. Thus, SNX1 is likely to play a role in sorting EGFR to lysosomes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kurten, R C -- Cadena, D L -- Gill, G N -- CA58689/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- F32DK08666/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 17;272(5264):1008-10.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla 92093-0650, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8638121" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The cytolytic P2Z receptor for extracellular ATP identified as a P2X receptor (P2X7) (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-03
    Description: The P2Z receptor is responsible for adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent lysis of macrophages through the formation of membrane pores permeable to large molecules. Other ATP-gated channels, the P2X receptors, are permeable only to small cations. Here, an ATP receptor, the P2X7 receptor, was cloned from rat brain and exhibited both these properties. This protein is homologous to other P2X receptors but has a unique carboxyl-terminal domain that was required for the lytic actions of ATP. Thus, the P2X7 (or P2Z) receptor is a bifunctional molecule that could function in both fast synaptic transmission and the ATP-mediated lysis of antigen-presenting cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Surprenant, A -- Rassendren, F -- Kawashima, E -- North, R A -- Buell, G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 3;272(5262):735-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Glaxo Institute for Molecular Biology, Geneva, Switzerland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8614837" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    CNS gene encoding astrotactin, which supports neuronal migration along glial fibers (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-04-19
    Description: Vertebrate central nervous system (CNS) histogenesis depends on glia-guided migration of postmitotic neurons to form neuronal laminae. Previous studies have established that the neuronal protein astrotactin functions in murine cerebellar granule cell migration in vitro. The gene encoding astrotactin predicts a protein with three epidermal growth factor repeats and two fibronectin type III repeats. Astrotactin messenger RNA is expressed in postmitotic neuronal precursors in the cerebellum, hippocampus, cerebrum, and olfactory bulb, where migration establishes laminar structures. Fab fragments of antibodies to a recombinant astrotactin peptide blocked migration of cerebellar granule neurons in vitro along astroglial fibers. Transfection of astrotactin complementary DNA into 3T3 cells indicated that astrotactin acts as a ligand for neuron-glia binding during neuronal migration.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zheng, C -- Heintz, N -- Hatten, M E -- NS15429/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Apr 19;272(5260):417-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Rockefeller University, New York, NY 10021-6399, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8602532" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Platelet-mediated lymphocyte delivery to high endothelial venules (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-07-12
    Description: Circulating lymphocytes gain access to lymph nodes owing to their ability to initiate rolling along specialized high endothelial venules (HEVs). One mechanism of rolling involves L-selectin binding to peripheral node addressin (PNAd) on HEVs. Activated platelets are shown to bind to circulating lymphocytes and to mediate rolling in HEVs, in vivo, through another molecule, P-selectin, which also interacts with PNAd. In vitro, activated platelets enhanced tethering of lymphocytes to PNAd and sustained lymphocyte rolling, even in the absence of functional L-selectin. Thus, a platelet pathway operating through P-selectin provides a second mechanism for lymphocyte delivery to HEVs.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Diacovo, T G -- Puri, K D -- Warnock, R A -- Springer, T A -- von Andrian, U H -- HL48675/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL54936/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jul 12;273(5272):252-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Center for Blood Research, Harvard Medical School, 200 Longwood Avenue, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8662511" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Regulation of a neuronal form of focal adhesion kinase by anandamide (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-09-20
    Description: Anandamide is an endogenous ligand for central cannabinoid receptors and is released after neuronal depolarization. Anandamide increased protein tyrosine phosphorylation in rat hippocampal slices and neurons in culture. The action of anandamide resulted from the inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and cyclic adenosine 3', 5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase. One of the proteins phosphorylated in response to anandamide was an isoform of pp125-focal adhesion kinase (FAK+) expressed preferentially in neurons. Focal adhesion kinase is a tyrosine kinase involved in the interactions between the integrins and actin-based cytoskeleton. Thus, anandamide may exert neurotrophic effects and play a role in synaptic plasticity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Derkinderen, P -- Toutant, M -- Burgaya, F -- Le Bert, M -- Siciliano, J C -- de Franciscis, V -- Gelman, M -- Girault, J A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Sep 20;273(5282):1719-22.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉INSERM U 114, Chaire de Neuropharmacologie, College de France, 11 place Marcelin Berthelot, 75231 Paris cedex 05, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8781236" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Exclusion of Int-6 from PML nuclear bodies by binding to the HTLV-I Tax oncoprotein (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-08-16
    Description: The Tax transactivator of the human T cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I) exhibits oncogenic properties. A screen for proteins interacting with Tax yielded a complementary DNA (cDNA) encoding the human Int-6 protein. In mice, the Int-6 gene can be converted into a putative dominant negative oncogene after retroviral insertion. Here, Int-6 was localized in the cell nucleus to give a speckled staining pattern superposed to that of the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein. The binding of Tax to Int-6 caused its redistribution from the nuclear domains to the cytoplasm. Thus, Int-6 is a component of the PML nuclear bodies and Tax disrupts its normal cellular localization by binding to it.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Desbois, C -- Rousset, R -- Bantignies, F -- Jalinot, P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Aug 16;273(5277):951-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique UMR49, Ecole Normale Superieure de Lyon, 69364 Lyon Cedex 07, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8688078" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Prevention of islet allograft rejection with engineered myoblasts expressing FasL in mice (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

    Publication Date: 1996-07-05
    Description: Allogeneic transplantation of islets of Langerhans was facilitated by the cotransplantation of syngeneic myoblasts genetically engineered to express the Fas ligand (FasL). Composite grafting of allogeneic islets with syngeneic myoblasts expressing FasL protected the islet graft from immune rejection and maintained normoglycemia for more than 80 days in mice with streptozotocin-induced diabetes. Graft survival was not prolonged with composite grafts of unmodified myoblasts or Fas-expressing myoblasts. Islet allografts transplanted separately from FasL-expressing myoblasts into the contralateral kidney were rejected, as were similarly transplanted third-party thyroid allografts. Thus, the FasL signal provided site- and immune-specific protection of islet allografts.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lau, H T -- Yu, M -- Fontana, A -- Stoeckert, C J Jr -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jul 5;273(5271):109-12.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pediatric Surgery, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, University of Pennsylvania, 19104, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8658177" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Role of Rho in chemoattractant-activated leukocyte adhesion through integrins (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-02-16
    Description: Heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein)-linked receptors of the chemoattractant subfamily can trigger adhesion through leukocyte integrins, and in this role they are thought to regulate immune cell-cell interactions and trafficking. In lymphoid cells transfected with formyl peptide or interleukin-8 receptors, agonist stimulation activated nucleotide exchange on the small guanosine triphosphate-binding protein RhoA in seconds. Inactivation of Rho by C3 transferase exoenzyme blocked agonist-induced lymphocyte alpha4beta1 adhesion to vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 and neutrophil beta2 integrin adhesion to fibrinogen. These findings suggest that Rho participates in signaling from chemoattractant receptors to trigger rapid adhesion in leukocytes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Laudanna, C -- Campbell, J J -- Butcher, E C -- 1F32 AI08930/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- 5T32 CA09302/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Feb 16;271(5251):981-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Immunology and Vascular Biology, Department of Pathology, Stanford University, CA 94305, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8584934" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-24
    Description: Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) regulates many aspects of cellular function. A member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase (MAPKKK) family, TAK1, was previously identified as a mediator in the signaling pathway of TGF-beta superfamily members. The yeast two-hybrid system has now revealed two human proteins, termed TAB1 and TAB2 (for TAK1 binding protein), that interact with TAK1. TAB1 and TAK1 were co-immunoprecipitated from mammalian cells. Overproduction of TAB1 enhanced activity of the plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 gene promoter, which is regulated by TGF-beta, and increased the kinase activity of TAK1. TAB1 may function as an activator of the TAK1 MAPKKK in TGF-beta signal transduction.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shibuya, H -- Yamaguchi, K -- Shirakabe, K -- Tonegawa, A -- Gotoh, Y -- Ueno, N -- Irie, K -- Nishida, E -- Matsumoto, K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 24;272(5265):1179-82.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8638164" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-03-29
    Description: The human ELL gene on chromosome 19 undergoes frequent translocations with the trithorax-like MLL gene on chromosome 11 in acute myeloid leukemias. Here, ELL was shown to encode a previously uncharacterized elongation factor that can increase the catalytic rate of RNA polymerase II transcription by suppressing transient pausing by polymerase at multiple sites along the DNA. Functionally, ELL resembles Elongin (SIII), a transcription elongation factor regulated by the product of the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor gene. The discovery of a second elongation factor implicated in oncogenesis provides further support for a close connection between the regulation of transcription elongation and cell growth.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shilatifard, A -- Lane, W S -- Jackson, K W -- Conaway, R C -- Conaway, J W -- GM41628/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Mar 29;271(5257):1873-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Program in Molecular and Cell Biology, Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation, Oklahoma City, 73104, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8596958" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-01-26
    Description: The CD44 family of surface receptors regulates adhesion, movement, and activation of normal and neoplastic cells. The cytokine osteopontin (Eta-1), which regulates similar cellular functions, was found to be a protein ligand of CD44. Osteopontin induces cellular chemotaxis but not homotypic aggregation, whereas the inverse is true for the interaction between CD44 and a carbohydrate ligand, hyaluronate. The different responses of cells after CD44 ligation by either osteopontin or hyaluronate may account for the independent effects of CD44 on cell migration and growth. This mechanism may also be exploited by tumor cells to promote metastasis formation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Weber, G F -- Ashkar, S -- Glimcher, M J -- Cantor, H -- AI12184/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI13600/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- P01 AR34078/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jan 26;271(5248):509-12.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Department of Pathology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8560266" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Enhancement of class II-restricted T cell responses by costimulatory NK receptors for class I MHC proteins (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-12-20
    Description: An important feature of the human immune system is the ability of T cells to respond to small quantities of antigen. Class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-restricted T cells that expressed a costimulatory natural killer (NK) cell receptor for class I MHC proteins were cloned. In the presence of low doses of superantigen, the proliferative response of these T cell clones was three- to ninefold greater when the T cells were costimulated by way of the NK receptor. Thus, the action of costimulatory NK receptors on T cells may play a significant role in initiating and sustaining immune responses.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mandelboim, O -- Davis, D M -- Reyburn, H T -- Vales-Gomez, M -- Sheu, E G -- Pazmany, L -- Strominger, J L -- CA 47554/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Dec 20;274(5295):2097-100.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, Harvard University, 7 Divinity Avenue, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA. jlstrom@fas.harvard.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8953044" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Replay of neuronal firing sequences in rat hippocampus during sleep following spatial experience (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-03-29
    Description: The correlated activity of rat hippocampal pyramidal cells during sleep reflects the activity of those cells during earlier spatial exploration. Now the patterns of activity during sleep have also been found to reflect the order in which the cells fired during spatial exploration. This relation was reliably stronger for sleep after the behavioral session than before it; thus, the activity during sleep reflects changes produced by experience. This memory for temporal order of neuronal firing could be produced by an interaction between the temporal integration properties of long-term potentiation and the phase shifting of spike activity with respect to the hippocampal theta rhythm.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Skaggs, W E -- McNaughton, B L -- AG12609/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- MH46823/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Mar 29;271(5257):1870-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Arizona Research Laboratories, Division of Neural Systems, Memory and Aging, University of Arizona, Tucson, 85724, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8596957" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Gamma-aminobutyrate acid, L-glutamate, and N-methyl-D-aspartate were separated by capillary electrophoresis and detected by the use of whole-cell and outside-out patch-clamp techniques on freshly dissociated rat olfactory interneurons. These neuroactive compounds could be identified from their electrophoretic migration times, unitary channel conductances, and power spectra that yielded corner frequencies and mean single-channel conductances characteristic for each of the different agonist-receptor interactions. This technique has the sensitivity to observe the opening of a single ion channel for agonists separated by capillary electrophoresis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Orwar, O -- Jardemark, K -- Jacobson, I -- Moscho, A -- Fishman, H A -- Scheller, R H -- Zare, R N -- DA 09873-01/DA/NIDA NIH HHS/ -- MH 45423-06/MH/NIMH NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jun 21;272(5269):1779-82.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Stanford University, California 94305, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8650575" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A role for CD81 in early T cell development (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-01-12
    Description: Early stages of T cell development are thought to include a series of coordinated interactions between thymocytes and other cells of the thymus. A monoclonal antibody specific for mouse CD81 was identified that blocked the appearance of alpha beta but not gamma delta T cells in fetal organ cultures initiated with day 14.5 thymus lobes. In reaggregation cultures with CD81-transfected fibroblasts, CD4-CD8- thymocytes differentiated into CD4+CD8+ T cells. Thus, interactions between immature thymocytes and stromal cells expressing CD81 are required and may be sufficient to induce early events associated with T cell development.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Boismenu, R -- Rhein, M -- Fischer, W H -- Havran, W L -- AI32751/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jan 12;271(5246):198-200.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Immunology, Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8539618" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Tat-SF1: cofactor for stimulation of transcriptional elongation by HIV-1 Tat (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-10-25
    Description: Tat may stimulate transcriptional elongation by recruitment of a complex containing Tat-SF1 and a kinase to the human immunodeficiency virus-type 1 (HIV-1) promoter through a Tat-TAR interaction. A complementary DNA for the cellular activity, Tat-SF1, has been isolated. This factor is required for Tat trans-activation and is a substrate of an associated cellular kinase. Cotransfection with the complementary DNA for Tat-SF1 specifically modulates Tat activation. Tat-SF1 contains two RNA recognition motifs and a highly acidic carboxyl-terminal half. It is distantly related to EWS and FUS/TLS, members of a family of putative transcription factors with RNA recognition motifs that are associated with sarcomas.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zhou, Q -- Sharp, P A -- AI32486/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- CA14051/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM34277/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Oct 25;274(5287):605-10.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Center for Cancer Research and Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8849451" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Direct measurement of coupling between dendritic spines and shafts (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-05-03
    Description: Characterization of the diffusional and electrotonic coupling of spines to the dendritic shaft is crucial to understanding neuronal integration and synaptic plasticity. Two-photon photobleaching and photorelease of fluorescein dextran were used to generate concentration gradients between spines and shafts in rat CA1 pyramidal neurons. Diffusional reequilibration was monitored with two-photon fluorescence imaging. The time course of reequilibration was exponential, with time constants in the range of 20 to 100 milliseconds, demonstrating chemical compartmentalization on such time scales. These values imply that electrical spine neck resistances are unlikely to exceed 150 megohms and more likely range from 4 to 50 megohms.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Svoboda, K -- Tank, D W -- Denk, W -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 May 3;272(5262):716-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Biological Computation Research Department, Bell Laboratories, Lucent Technologies, Murray Hill, NJ 07974, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8614831" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Immunologic NO synthase: elevation in severe AIDS dementia and induction by HIV-1 gp41 (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-12-13
    Description: Indirect mechanisms are implicated in the pathogenesis of the dementia associated with human immunodeficiency virus-type 1 (HIV-1) infection. Proinflammatory molecules such as tumor necrosis factor alpha and eicosanoids are elevated in the central nervous system of patients with HIV-1-related dementia. Nitric oxide (NO) is a potential mediator of neuronal injury, because cytokines may activate the immunologic (type II) isoform of NO synthase (iNOS). The levels of iNOS in severe HIV-1-associated dementia coincided with increased expression of the HIV-1 coat protein gp41. Furthermore, gp41 induced iNOS in primary cultures of mixed rat neuronal and glial cells and killed neurons through a NO-dependent mechanism. Thus, gp41-induced NO formation may contribute to the severe cognitive dysfunction associated with HIV-1 infection.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Adamson, D C -- Wildemann, B -- Sasaki, M -- Glass, J D -- McArthur, J C -- Christov, V I -- Dawson, T M -- Dawson, V L -- AI35042/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- NS07392/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- NS22643/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Dec 13;274(5294):1917-21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Neurology, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, 600 North Wolfe Street, Pathology 2-210, Baltimore, MD 21287, USA. valina.dawson@qmail.bs.jhu.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8943206" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Egr-1-induced endothelial gene expression: a common theme in vascular injury (1996)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1996-03-08
    Description: A number of pathophysiologically relevant genes, including platelet-derived growth factor B-chain (PDGF-B), are induced in the vasculature after acute mechanical injury. In rat aorta, the activated expression of these genes was preceded by a marked increase in the amount of the early-growth-response gene product Egr-1 at the endothelial wound edge. Egr-1 interacts with a novel element in the proximal PDGF-B promoter, as well as with consensus elements in the promoters of other genes induced by endothelial injury. This interaction is crucial for injury-induced PDGF-B promoter-dependent expression. Sp1, whose binding site in the PDGF-B promoter overlaps that of Egr-1, occupies this element in unstimulated cells and is displaced by increasing amounts of Egr-1. These findings implicate Egr-1 in the up-regulated expression of PDGF-B and other potent mediators in mechanically injured arterial endothelial cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Khachigian, L M -- Lindner, V -- Williams, A J -- Collins, T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Mar 8;271(5254):1427-31.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Vascular Research Division, Department of Pathology, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8596917" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
