Table of Contents (PDF) June 14, 2011 u vol. 108 u no. 24 u 9727–10022 Cover image: Pictured is the ladybird beetle Delphastus catalinae next to the rim of a US one cent coin. Stephen T. Deyrup and colleagues used 2D NMR spectroscopy to screen metabolites, including defensive polyketides that these tiny beetles produce. The technique revealed partial molecular structures that allowed the authors to identify novel compounds within the complex mixtures without prior fractionation or isolation.

Ltd. Hepatic metastasis is a major clinical problem in cancer treatment. We examined antitumor ac- tivity of alpha-galactosylceramide (KRN7000) on mice with spontaneous liver metastases of re- ticulum cell sarcoma M5076 tumor cells (spontaneous metastasis model). In this model, all mice that were s.c. challenged with one million tumor cells developed a solid s.c. mass by day 7 and died of hepatic metastases. In the current study, we administered 100 microg/kg of KRN7000 to the model mice on days 7, 11, and 15. This treatment suppressed the growth of established liver metastases and resulted in the prolongation of survival time. Fluorescence-activated cell sorter analysis of phenotypes of spleen cells, hepatic lymphocytes, and regional lymph node cells around the s.c. tumor revealed that CD3+NK1.1+ (NKT) cells increased in hepatic lym- phocytes of the KRN7000-treated mice. Cytotoxic activity and IFN-gamma production of hepatic lymphocytes were augmented in comparison with those of spleen cells and regional LN cells. At the same time, interleukin (IL)-12 production of hepatic lymphocytes was markedly enhanced. Neutralization of IL-12 using a blocking monoclonal antibody diminished the prolonged survival time. These results showed that the in vivo antitumor effects of KRN7000 on spontaneous liver metastases were dependent on the endogenous IL-12 production, where NKT cells in the liver are suggested to be involved. Adjuvant immunotherapy using KRN7000 could be a promising modality for the prevention of postoperative liver metastases.

Bertozzi, Chair Professor Matthew B. Francis Professor Tom Alber Fall 2010 Investigations of Metabolic Pathways in Mycobacterium tuberculosis © 2010 By Stavroula K Hatzios Abstract Investigations of Metabolic Pathways in Mycobacterium tuberculosis by Stavroula K Hatzios Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry University of California, Berkeley Professor Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Chair Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the bacterium that causes tuberculosis in humans, infects roughly two billion people worldwide. However, less than one percent of infected individuals are symptomatic. Most have a latent infection characterized by dormant, non- replicating bacteria that persist within a mass of immune cells in the lung called the granuloma. The granuloma provides a protective barrier between infected cells and surrounding tissue. When host immunity is compromised, the granuloma can deteriorate and reactivate the disease. In order to mount a latent infection, Mtb must survive in alveolar macrophages, the host’s primary line of defense against this intracellular pathogen. By evading typical bactericidal processes, Mtb is able to replicate and stimulate granuloma formation. The mechanisms by which Mtb persists in macrophages are ill defined; thus, elucidating the factors responsible for this hallmark of Mtb pathogenesis is an important area of research. This thesis explores three discrete metabolic pathways in Mtb that are likely to mediate its interactions with host immune cells. The first three chapters examine the sulfate assimilation pathway of Mtb and its regulation by the phosphatase CysQ.

This report covers October 1, 2016 to September 30, 2017. Front Cover Illustration Vector-assisted spectral tracing (VAST) in the cerebellum of an adult mouse A movie highlighting the multi-color vector-assisted spectral tracing (VAST) system in the cerebellum of an adult mouse. Due to the stochastic uptake of AAV-PHP viruses encoding either a blue, green or red fluorescent protein, cells are labeled with a wide range of hues. This approach can be used to differentiate neighboring neurons for morphology and tracing studies.
