CD137 mRNA has been detected in activated chondrocytes and epithelial and hepatoma cells.4 Expression of CD137 protein has been verified in chondrocytes.16 In all primary cells, expression of CD137 mRNA and protein is strictly dependent on activation. A constitutive expression of CD137 mRNA was found only in several tumor cell lines, implying a potential growth advantage of CD137 expression for tumor cells.4 This hypothesis prompted us to study whether CD137 protein also would be expressed constitutively by tumor cells in vivo. By using immunohistochemical studies, we found that CD137 can be expressed on blood vessel walls by the © American Society of Clinical Pathologists Am J Clin Pathol 2001;115:543-549 543 Broll et al / CD137 EXPRESSION IN TUMOR VESSEL WALLS endothelial cells and the vascular smooth muscle cells Reverse Transcriptase–Polymerase Chain Reaction (VSMCs).

All rights reserved 1672-7681/11 $32.00 www.nature.com/cmi MINI REVIEW 4-1BB signaling beyond T cells Dass S Vinay1 and Byoung S Kwon1,2 Originally discovered as a T cell-activating molecule, 4-1BB (CD137) is now also recognized as an activator of non-T cells, thus imparting a new dimension to its potential in vivo effects. 4-1BB expression is seen on a variety of non-T cells including activated dendritic cells (DCs), monocytes, neutrophils, B cells and natural killer (NK) cells, and promotes their individual effector functions. The T cell- and non-T cell-activating ability of 4-1BB may be the basis of its powerful anti-cancer, anti-autoimmune and anti-viral effects. Here we discuss the consequence and importance of 4-1BB signaling in non-T cells. We consider its effects on immune regulation, and the distinct and/or overlapping pathways involved in these responses, as well as possible therapeutic applications.

The authors present the case of a 62-year-old woman with a primary breast leiomyosarcoma with synchronous ipsilateral lung adenocarcinoma. The latter was an incidental finding during pre-surgical staging examinations. Clinicopathological, immunophenotypic and imaging features cancer are described. A brief review of the literature on imaging findings and management of breast leiomyosarcoma is presented. The authors discuss the differential diagnoses in breast imaging and of the extra-mammary incidental findings.

These tumours become enormous in size and grow rapidly, though these tumours are mostly benign. These patients are almost always treated by breast conserving surgery. Here we present a case having unilateral giant juvenile fibroadenoma with bilateral multiple small fibroadenomas in an adolescent female aged 16years. The diagnosis of the patient was made on clinical examination, USG & FNAC. Confirmatory diagnosis was made by histopathology. We removed the giant one with "Swiss-Roll" procedure and others by simple enucleation. The aesthatic appearence of the breasts were preserved. Key words: Fibroadenoma, Giant fibroadenoma, Juvenile fibroadenoma, Swiss-roll operation.

These cells are relatively easy to obtain from total bone marrow cells by culturing under the influence of IL-3 or stem cell factor (SCF). After 3 to 4 weeks in culture, a nearly homogenous cell population of toluidine blue-positive cells are often obtained. However, the question is how relevant equivalents these cells are to normal tissue MCs. By comparing the total transcriptome of purified peritoneal MCs with BMMCs, here we obtained a comparative view of these cells.

  • Role of ADAM10 and ADAM17 in Regulating CD137 Function
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Article Role of ADAM10 and ADAM17 in Regulating CD137 Function Jana Seidel 1, Sinje Leitzke 1, Björn Ahrens 1, Maria Sperrhacke 1, Sucharit Bhakdi 2 and Karina Reiss 1,* 1 Department of Dermatology, University of Kiel, 24105 Kiel, Germany; [email protected] (J.S.); [email protected] (S.L.); [email protected] (B.A.); [email protected] (M.S.) 2 Independent Researcher, 24105 Kiel, Germany; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Human CD137 (4-1BB), a member of the TNF receptor family, and its ligand CD137L (4-1BBL), are expressed on immune cells and tumor cells. CD137/CD137L interaction mediates bidirectional cellular responses of potential relevance in inflammatory diseases, autoimmunity and oncology. A soluble form of CD137 exists, elevated levels of which have been reported in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and various malignancies. Soluble CD137 (sCD137) is considered to represent a splice variant of CD137. In this report, however, evidence is presented that A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase (ADAM)10 and potentially also ADAM17 are centrally involved in its generation. Release of sCD137 by transfected cell lines and primary T cells was uniformly inhibitable by ADAM10 inhibition. The shedding function of ADAM10 can be blocked through inhibition of its interaction with surface exposed phosphatidylserine (PS), and this effectively inhibited sCD137 generation. The phospholipid scramblase Anoctamin-6 (ANO6) traffics PS to the outer membrane and thus modifies ADAM10 function. Overexpression of ANO6 increased stimulated shedding, and hyperactive ANO6 led to maximal constitutive shedding of CD137.
