A Thyroid Hormone-Regulated Gene In Xenopus Laevis Encodes A Type Iii Iodothyronine 5-Deiodinase., Donald L. St Germain, Robert Schwartzman, Walburga Croteau, Akira Kanamori, Zhou Wang, Donald D. Brown, Valerie Galton

The type III iodothyronine 5-deiodinase metabolizes thyroxine and 3,5,3'-triiodothyronine to inactive metabolites by catalyzing the removal of iodine from the inner ring. The enzyme is expressed in a tissue-specific pattern during particular stages of development in amphibia, birds, and mammals. Recently, a PCR-based subtractive hybridization technique has been used to isolate cDNAs prepared from Xenopus laevis tadpole tail mRNA that represent genes upregulated by thyroid hormone during metamorphosis. Sequence analysis of one of these cDNAs (XL-15) revealed regions of homology to the mRNA encoding the rat type I (outer ring) 5'-deiodinase, including a conserved UGA codon that encodes selenocysteine in …
Adoptive Transfer Of Polyclonal And Cloned Cytolytic T Lymphocytes (Ctl) Specific For Mouse Aids-Associated Tumors Is Effective In Preserving Ctl Responses: A Measure Of Protection Against Lp-Bm5 Retrovirus-Induced Immunodeficiency., William R. Green, Kathy A. Green, Karen M. Crassi
Adoptive Transfer Of Polyclonal And Cloned Cytolytic T Lymphocytes (Ctl) Specific For Mouse Aids-Associated Tumors Is Effective In Preserving Ctl Responses: A Measure Of Protection Against Lp-Bm5 Retrovirus-Induced Immunodeficiency., William R. Green, Kathy A. Green, Karen M. Crassi

Cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) can be raised against C57BL/6 B-cell lymphomas from mice with LP-BM5 murine leukemia virus-induced AIDS (MAIDS). Adoptive transfer of polyclonal anti-MAIDS tumor CTL or two CTL clones specific for the B6-1710 MAIDS lymphoma caused preservation of major histocompatibility complex-restricted and allogeneic CTL responses, which may be interpreted as indices of protection from LP-BM5 murine leukemia virus-induced immunodeficiency.
The Amino-Terminal Functions Of The Simian Virus 40 Large T Antigen Are Required To Overcome Wild-Type P53-Mediated Growth Arrest Of Cells., Robin S. Quartin, Charles N. Cole, James M. Pipas, Arnold J. Levine

High levels of the p53 tumor suppressor protein can block progression through the cell cycle. A model system for the study of the mechanism of action of wild-type p53 is a cell line (T64-7B) derived from rat embryo fibroblasts transformed by activated ras and a temperature-sensitive murine p53 gene. At 37 to 39 degrees C, the murine p53 protein is in a mutant conformation and the cells actively divide, whereas at 32 degrees C, the protein has a wild-type conformation and the cells arrest in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Wild-type simian virus 40 large T antigen and …

Cell death is a common feature of neural development in all vertebrates. The bcl-2 proto-oncogene has been shown to protect a variety of cell types from programmed cell death. We have examined the distribution of bcl-2 protein in the developing and adult nervous systems. bcl-2 protein is widespread during embryonic development. Proliferating neuroepithelial cells of ventricular zones as well as the postmitotic cells of the cortical plate, cerebellum, hippocampus and spinal cord express bcl-2. Postnatally, bcl-2 is principally retained in the granule cells of the cerebellum and dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. bcl-2 expression in the CNS declines with aging. …
