E. Carey at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI. The UM-SCC cell lines were derived from eight patients with SCC of the upper aerodigestive tract (supplemental Table 1). Patient age at tumor diagnosis ranged from 37 to 72 years. The cell lines selected were obtained from patients with stage I-IV tumors, distributed among oral, pharyngeal and laryngeal sites. All the patients had aggressive disease, with early recurrence and death within two years of therapy. Cell lines established from single isolates of a patient specimen are designated by a numeric designation, and where isolates from two time points or anatomical sites were obtained, the designation includes an alphabetical suffix (i.e., "A" or "B"). The cell lines were maintained in Eagle's minimal essential media supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and penicillin/streptomycin.

  • CD56+ T-Cells in Relation to Cytomegalovirus in Healthy Subjects and Kidney Transplant Patients
    CD56+ T-cells in Relation to Cytomegalovirus in Healthy Subjects and Kidney Transplant Patients Institute of Infection and Global Health Department of Clinical Infection, Microbiology and Immunology Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Mazen Mohammed Almehmadi December 2014 - 1 - Abstract Human T cells expressing CD56 are capable of tumour cell lysis following activation with interleukin-2 but their role in viral immunity has been less well studied. The work described in this thesis aimed to investigate CD56+ T-cells in relation to cytomegalovirus infection in healthy subjects and kidney transplant patients (KTPs). Proportions of CD56+ T cells were found to be highly significantly increased in healthy cytomegalovirus-seropositive (CMV+) compared to cytomegalovirus-seronegative (CMV-) subjects (8.38% ± 0.33 versus 3.29%± 0.33; P < 0.0001). In donor CMV-/recipient CMV- (D-/R-)- KTPs levels of CD56+ T cells were 1.9% ±0.35 versus 5.42% ±1.01 in D+/R- patients and 5.11% ±0.69 in R+ patients (P 0.0247 and < 0.0001 respectively). CD56+ T cells in both healthy CMV+ subjects and KTPs expressed markers of effector memory- RA T-cells (TEMRA) while in healthy CMV- subjects and D-/R- KTPs the phenotype was predominantly that of naïve T-cells. Other surface markers, CD8, CD4, CD58, CD57, CD94 and NKG2C were expressed by a significantly higher proportion of CD56+ T-cells in healthy CMV+ than CMV- subjects. Functional studies showed levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines IFN-γ and TNF-α, as well as granzyme B and CD107a were significantly higher in CD56+ T-cells from CMV+ than CMV- subjects following stimulation with CMV antigens.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

  • Binding of Recombinant Human Cytokeratin 19 to Laminin
    CELL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION 25: 171–175 (2000) © 2000 by Japan Society for Cell Biology Binding of Recombinant Human Cytokeratin 19 to Laminin: A Possible Role in Interaction between Intermediate Filament Derived from Epithelial Cells and Extracellular Matrixes Naomi Dobashi1, Jiro Fujita1,*, Masayuki Murota2, Yuji Ohtsuki3, Shuji Bandoh1, Yutaka Ueda1, Kazutaka Dohmoto1, Satoko Hojo1, Mikio Nishioka2, Toshihiko Ishida, and Jiro Takahara1 1First Department of Internal Medicine, Kagawa Medical University, Kagawa 2Third Department of Internal Medicine, Kagawa Medical University, Kagawa 3Department of Pathology, Kochi Medical School, Kochi, Japan ABSTRACT. Cytokeratin 8 (CK8) and cytokeratin 19 (CK19) is a specific cytoskeletal component of simple epi- thelia, including bronchial epithelial cells. We hypothesized that CK8 or CK19 released from epithelial cells may bind to and cause damage to extracellular matrixes through binding of anti-CK8 or anti-CK19 autoantibodies. In the present study, bindings of recombinant human CK8 and CK19 to laminin (both derived from mouse sarcoma cells and human), collagen, gelatin, and fibronectin were evaluated by a modified enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In addition, binding of CK19 to laminin was also confirmed by inhibition assay. As a result, CK19 strongly bound to mouse laminin as well as human laminin. Pretreatment with laminin significantly reduced the binding of CK19 to laminin. However, binding of recombinant CK19 to laminin was not demonstrated by Western immunoblot, suggesting that SDS treatment of laminin diminished the binding. These results suggest that released CK19 from epithelial cells may have played a role in the damage of basement membrane by accumulation of an immune complex composed by CK19 and anti-CK19 autoantibody.

  • Congenital Muscular Dystrophy Due to Laminin Α2 (Merosin) Deficiency (MDC1A) in an Ethnic Malay Girl 1MK Thong, 3Sofiah Ali,4 YE Park, 5DS Kim, 6KJ Goh, 2KT Wong
    Neurology Asia 2017; 22(2) : 155 – 159 Congenital muscular dystrophy due to laminin α2 (merosin) deficiency (MDC1A) in an ethnic Malay girl 1MK Thong, 3Sofiah Ali, 4YE Park, 5DS Kim, 6KJ Goh, 2KT Wong 1Departments of Paediatrics, 2Pathology and 6Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; 3Sime Darby Medical Centre, Subang Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia; 4Department of Neurology and Biomedical Research Institute, Pusan National University Hospital, Busan, Korea; 5Department of Neurology, Research Institute for Convergence of Biomedical Science and Technology, Pusan National University Yangsan Hospital, Yangsan, Korea Abstract We report the first known ethnic Malay patient with laminin alpha-2 (merosin) deficiency (MDC1A), a subtype of congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD)as a result of novel LAMA2 gene mutations. The 21-month-old female presented with hypotonia at birth and gross motor delay of her distal lower limbs. Physical examination showed generalised hypotonia, hyporeflexia and myopathic facies but good cognitive functions. Serum creatine kinase was elevated and white matter changes were detected in the brain MRI. Muscle biopsy showed dystrophic changes with complete laminin α2 deficiency by immunohistochemistry. Mutation analysis of LAMA2 showed compound heterozygote at exon 21, c.2888delG(p.Gly963Alafs*111) and exon 34, c.4886dupC(p.Pro1629Profs*40) leading to premature stop codon for each of the frameshift mutations. Patient review at seven years of age showed satisfactory cognitive functions despite having contractures and weakness. Genetic testing of LAMA2 related muscular dystrophy facilitated the earlier diagnosis of MDC1A and genetic counselling for this family. Keywords: laminin alpha-2 deficiency; merosin deficiency. LAMA2, Malaysia, congenital muscular dystrophy, MDC1A INTRODUCTION mutations in the laminin alpha-2 (LAMA2)gene.

Published OnlineFirst April 8, 2020; DOI: 10.1158/2159-8290.CD-19-0532 ABSTRACT Epigenetic regulators, when genomically altered, may become driver oncogenes that mediate otherwise unexplained pro-oncogenic changes lacking a clear genetic stimulus, such as activation of the WNT/β -catenin pathway in melanoma. This study identifi es previ- ously unrecognized recurrent activating mutations in the G9a histone methyltransferase gene, as well as G9a genomic copy gains in approximately 26% of human melanomas, which collectively drive tumor growth and an immunologically sterile microenvironment beyond melanoma. Furthermore, the WNT pathway is identifi ed as a key tumorigenic target of G9a gain-of-function, via suppression of the WNT antagonist DKK1. Importantly, genetic or pharmacologic suppression of mutated or amplifi ed G9a using multiple in vitro and in vivo models demonstrates that G9a is a druggable target for therapeutic intervention in melanoma and other cancers harboring G9a genomic aberrations.

Keasey1, Cuihong Jia1, Lylyan F. Pimentel1,2, Richard R. Sante1, Chiharu Lovins1 and Theo Hagg1,* ABSTRACT Microglia and astrocytes express the VTN receptors αvβ3 and α β We defined how blood-derived vitronectin (VTN) rapidly and potently v 5 integrin (Herrera-Molina et al., 2012; Kang et al., 2008; activates leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and pro-inflammatory Milner, 2009; Welser-Alves et al., 2011). Microglia and astrocytes, interleukin 6 (IL-6) in vitro and after vascular injury in the brain. as well as endothelial cells, are major producers of pro- α in vitro Treatment with VTN (but not fibrinogen, fibronectin, laminin-111 or inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6 and TNF , and collagen-I) substantially increased LIF and IL-6 within 4 h in after traumatic or ischemic injury to the brain (Banner et al., 1997; C6-astroglioma cells, while VTN−/− mouse plasma was less effective Erta et al., 2012; Lau and Yu, 2001) or upon self-induction by IL-6 than that from wild-type mice. LIF and IL-6 were induced by (Van Wagoner and Benveniste, 1999). IL-6 is a major regulator of a intracerebral injection of recombinant human (rh)VTN in mice, but variety of inflammatory disorders and a target for therapies (Hunter induction seen upon intracerebral hemorrhage was less in VTN−/− and Jones, 2015).
