Accumulating data suggest that cell cycle dynamics play a major role in the regulation of this balance. Here we show that the G2/M cell cycle regulator CDC25B phosphatase is required in mammals to finely tune neuronal production in the neural tube. We show that in chick neural progenitors, CDC25B activity favors fast nuclei departure from the apical surface in early G1, stimulates neurogenic divisions and promotes neuronal differentiation. We design a mathematical model showing that within a limited period of time, cell cycle length modifications cannot account for changes in the ratio of the mode of division. Using a CDC25B point mutation that cannot interact with CDK, we show that part of CDC25B activity is independent *For correspondence: of its action on the cell cycle.

  • Using Open Access Literature to Guide Full-Text Query Formulation Heather A
    Using open access literature to guide full-text query formulation Heather A. Piwowar and Wendy W. Chapman Background Much scientific knowledge is contained in the details of the full-text biomedical literature. Most research in automated retrieval presupposes that the target literature can be downloaded and preprocessed prior to query. Unfortunately, this is not a practical or maintainable option for most users due to licensing restrictions, website terms of use, and sheer volume. Scientific article full-text is increasingly queriable through portals such as PubMed Central, Highwire Press, Scirus, and Google Scholar. However, because these portals only support very basic Boolean queries and full text is so expressive, formulating an effective query is a difficult task for users. We propose improving the formulation of full-text queries by using the open access literature as a proxy for the literature to be searched. We evaluated the feasibility of this approach by building a high-precision query for identifying studies that perform gene expression microarray experiments. Methodology and Results We built decision rules from unigram and bigram features of the open access literature. Minor syntax modifications were needed to translate the decision rules into the query languages of PubMed Central, Highwire Press, and Google Scholar. We mapped all retrieval results to PubMed identifiers and considered our query results as the union of retrieved articles across all portals. Compared to our reference standard, the derived full- text query found 56% (95% confidence interval, 52% to 61%) of intended studies, and 90% (86% to 93%) of studies identified by the full-text search met the reference standard criteria.

  • Biofilms and Biodiversity: an Interactive Exploration of Aquatic
    Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology (2000) 24, 334–338 2000 Society for Industrial Microbiology 1367-5435/00 $15.00 www.nature.com/jim Biofilms and biodiversity: an interactive exploration of aquatic microbial biotechnology and ecology JA Frederick1, D Jacobs2 and WR Jones3 1Maryland Sea Grant Extension Program, Columbus Center, 701 E Pratt St, Baltimore, MD 21202; 2Maryland Sea Grant, 0112 Skinner Hall, College Park, MD 20742; 3Center of Marine Biotechnology, University of Maryland Biotechnology Institute, 701 E Pratt St, Baltimore, MD 21202, USA The study of biofilms provides a unique educational opportunity to examine ecosystems, biodiversity and appli- cations of environmental biotechnology. There are many variables that could be studied for measuring the interac- tions between bacterial biofilms and invertebrate biodiversity as a method for assessing the health of aquatic eco- systems. These interactions also lend themselves to an easily replicated model system which can be used to reach a wide audience with an educational opportunity for students as well as a professional development opportunity for teachers. At the foundation of the research are invaluable basic microbiology skills: strain collection, isolation, cultivation and characterization. Through the additional process of characterizing, identifying and enumerating invertebrate organisms that attach to bacterial biofilms in aquatic ecosystems, there evolved a multidisciplinary class laboratory activity that has found broad application. This activity is captivating not only to undergraduate microbiology students but to middle and high school students and their teachers. The demand for information about the activity has led to the development of a truly interactive web-based lesson, which in turn has resulted in additional inquiries and further refinement of the lesson as an undergraduate independent research course.

  • Inhibitors of Target Workflow
    Inhibitors of Target Which Substances are Potent and Selective Inhibitors of Target? Potent and Selective COX-2 It is clear that COX-2 plays an important role in tumor and endothelial cell biology. Increased expression of COX-2 occurs in multiple cells within the tumor microenvironment that can impact on angiogenesis. COX-2 appears to: Play a key role in the release and activity of proangiogenic proteins; Result in the production of eicosanoid products TXA2, PGI2, PGE2 that directly stimulate endothelial cell migration and angiogenesis in vivo, and Result in enhanced tumor cell, and possibly, vascular endothelial cell survival by upregulation of the antiapoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and/or activation of PI3K-Akt. Selective pharmacologic inhibition of COX-2 represents a viable therapeutic option for the treatment of malignancies. Agents that selectively inhibit COX-2 demonstrate that chronic treatment for angiogenesis inhibition is feasible. As a continuous research for discovery of new COX-2 inhibitors, new synthetic potent and selective inhibitors of COX-2 are of great interest as antiangiogenic agent. Let’s search for potent and selective inhibitors of Cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) versus Cyclooxygenase COX-1. Define the Search Query using the Query builder 1.

  • A Physicochemical Perspective of Aging from Single-Cell Analysis Of
    TOOLS AND RESOURCES A physicochemical perspective of aging from single-cell analysis of pH, macromolecular and organellar crowding in yeast Sara N Mouton1, David J Thaller2, Matthew M Crane3, Irina L Rempel1, Owen T Terpstra1, Anton Steen1, Matt Kaeberlein3, C Patrick Lusk2, Arnold J Boersma4*, Liesbeth M Veenhoff1* 1European Research Institute for the Biology of Ageing, University of Groningen, University Medical Center Groningen, Groningen, Netherlands; 2Department of Cell Biology, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, United States; 3Department of Pathology, School of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, United States; 4DWI-Leibniz Institute for Interactive Materials, Aachen, Germany Abstract Cellular aging is a multifactorial process that is characterized by a decline in homeostatic capacity, best described at the molecular level. Physicochemical properties such as pH and macromolecular crowding are essential to all molecular processes in cells and require maintenance. Whether a drift in physicochemical properties contributes to the overall decline of homeostasis in aging is not known. Here, we show that the cytosol of yeast cells acidifies modestly in early aging and sharply after senescence. Using a macromolecular crowding sensor optimized for long-term FRET measurements, we show that crowding is rather stable and that the stability of crowding is a stronger predictor for lifespan than the absolute crowding levels. Additionally, in aged cells, we observe drastic changes in organellar volume, leading to crowding on the *For correspondence: micrometer scale, which we term organellar crowding.

Autophagy is also " endocrine diseases involved in the pathology of a wide range of diseases. Within the endocrine system, autophagy has both its traditional conserved functions and specific functions. In the endocrine glands, autophagy plays a critical role in controlling intracellular hormone levels. In peptide-secreting cells of glands such as the pituitary gland, crinophagy, a specific form of autophagy, targets the secretory granules to control the levels of stored hormone. In steroid-secreting cells of glands such as the testes and adrenal gland, autophagy targets the steroid-producing organelles.
