A unifying model of genome evolution under parsimony PDF available through Get Fulltext Research

Paten, Benedict Zerbino, Daniel R Hickey, Glenn Haussler, David

Published in BMC Bioinformatics

BackgroundParsimony and maximum likelihood methods of phylogenetic tree estimation and parsimony methods for genome rearrangements are central to the study of genome evolution yet to date they have largely been pursued in isolation.ResultsWe present a data structure called a history graph that offers a practical basis for the analysis of genome evo...

Genomic characterization of three urinary bladder cancer cell lines: understanding genomic types of urinary bladder canc... PDF available through Get Fulltext Research

Pinto-Leite, Rosário Carreira, Isabel Melo, Joana Ferreira, Susana Isabel Ribeiro, Ilda Ferreira, Jaqueline Filipe, Marco Bernardo, Carina Arantes-Rodrigues, Regina Oliveira, Paula ...

Published in Tumor Biology

Several genomic regions are frequently altered and associated with the type, stage and progression of urinary bladder cancer (UBC). We present the characterization of 5637, T24 and HT1376 UBC cell lines by karyotyping, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) and multiplex ligation-dependent probe am...

Theranostic immunoliposomes for osteoarthritis

Cho, Hongsik Stuart, John M. Magid, Richard Danila, Delia C. Hunsaker, Tamra Pinkhassik, Eugene Hasty, Karen A.

Published in Nanomedicine: Nanotechnology, Biology, and Medicine

Schematic diagram of antibody targeted immunoliposomes binding onto damaged cartilage. Antibodies to type II collagen are normally blocked from binding to the surface of the articular cartilage. Proteolytic enzymes secreted by resident chondrocytes, synoviocytes or infiltrating leukocytes degrade the surface proteins and allow access of the antibod...

Changes in cell and tissue organization in cancer of the breast and colon

Hinck, Lindsay Näthke, Inke

Published in Current Opinion in Cell Biology

Most cancers arise in epithelia, the tissue type that lines all body cavities. The organization of epithelia enables them to act as a barrier and perform vectorial transport of molecules between body compartments. Crucial for their organization and function is a highly specialized network of cell adhesion and polarity proteins aligned along the api...

Opposing activities of DRM and MES-4 tune gene expression and X-chromosome repression in Caenorhabditis elegans germ cel... PDF available through Get Fulltext Research

Tabuchi, Tomoko M Rechtsteiner, Andreas Strome, Susan Hagstrom, Kirsten A

Published in G3 (Bethesda, Md.)

During animal development, gene transcription is tuned to tissue-appropriate levels. Here we uncover antagonistic regulation of transcript levels in the germline of Caenorhabditis elegans hermaphrodites. The histone methyltransferase MES-4 (Maternal Effect Sterile-4) marks genes expressed in the germline with methylated lysine on histone H3 (H3K36m...

Characterization of T cell phenotype and function in a double transgenic (collagen-specific TCR/HLA-DR1) humanized model... PDF available through Get Fulltext Research

Tang, Bo Kim, Seunghyun Hammond, Sarah Cullins, David L Brand, David D Rosloniec, Edward F Stuart, John M Postlethwaite, Arnold E Kang, Andrew H Myers, Linda K ...

Published in Arthritis Research & Therapy

IntroductionT cells orchestrate joint inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), yet they are difficult to study due to the small numbers of antigen-specific cells. The goal of this study was to characterize a new humanized model of autoimmune arthritis and to describe the phenotypic and functional changes that occur in autoimmune T cells following...

Effect of a serogroup A meningococcal conjugate vaccine (PsA-TT) on serogroup A meningococcal meningitis and carriage in... PDF available through Get Fulltext Research

Daugla, D M Gami, J P Gamougam, K Naibei, N Mbainadji, L Narbé, M Toralta, J Kodbesse, B Ngadoua, C Coldiron, M E ...

Published in Lancet (London, England)

A serogroup A meningococcal polysaccharide-tetanus toxoid conjugate vaccine (PsA-TT, MenAfriVac) was licensed in India in 2009, and pre-qualified by WHO in 2010, on the basis of its safety and immunogenicity. This vaccine is now being deployed across the African meningitis belt. We studied the effect of PsA-TT on meningococcal meningitis and carria...

The unfolded protein response is activated in disease-affected brain regions in progressive supranuclear palsy and Alzhe... PDF available through Get Fulltext Research

Stutzbach, Lauren D Xie, Sharon X Naj, Adam C Albin, Roger Gilman, Sid Lee, Virginia M Y Trojanowski, John Q Devlin, Bernie Schellenberg, Gerard D

Published in Acta Neuropathologica Communications

BackgroundProgressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a neurodegenerative disorder pathologically characterized by intracellular tangles of hyperphosphorylated tau protein distributed throughout the neocortex, basal ganglia, and brainstem. A genome-wide association study identified EIF2AK3 as a risk factor for PSP. EIF2AK3 encodes PERK, part of the end...

Flk2/Flt3 promotes both myeloid and lymphoid development by expanding non–self-renewing multipotent hematopoietic progen... PDF available through Get Fulltext Research

Beaudin, Anna E. Boyer, Scott W. Forsberg, E. Camilla

Published in Experimental Hematology

Defining differentiation pathways is central to understanding the pathogenesis of hematopoietic disorders, including leukemia. The function of the receptor tyrosine kinase Flk2 (Flt3) in promoting myeloid development remains poorly defined, despite being commonly mutated in acute myeloid leukemia. We investigated the effect of Flk2 deficiency on my...

Household crowding, social mixing patterns and respiratory symptoms in seven countries of the African meningitis belt. PDF available through Get Fulltext Research

Ferraro, Claire F Trotter, Caroline L Nascimento, Maria C Jusot, Jean-François Omotara, Babatunji A Hodgson, Abraham Ali, Oumer Alavo, Serge Sow, Samba Daugla, Doumagoum Moto ...

Published in PloS one

To describe the variation in household crowding and social mixing patterns in the African meningitis belt and to assess any association with self-reported recent respiratory symptoms. In 2010, the African Meningococcal Carriage Consortium (MenAfriCar) conducted cross-sectional surveys in urban and rural areas of seven countries. The number of house...
