Long-Term Calorie Restriction, But Not Endurance Exercise, Lowers Core Body Temperature In Humans, Andreea Soare, Roberto Cangemi, Daniela Omodei, John O. Holloszy, Luigi Fontana

Open Access Publications

Reduction of body temperature has been proposed to contribute to the increased lifespan in calorie restricted animals and mice overexpressing the uncoupling protein-2 in hypocretin neurons. However, nothing is known regarding the long-term effects of calorie restriction (CR) with adequate nutrition on body temperature in humans. In this study, 24-hour core body temperature was measured every minute by using ingested telemetric capsules in 24 men and women (mean age 53.7 ± 9.4 yrs) consuming a CR diet for an average of 6 years, 24 age- and sex-matched sedentary (WD) and 24 body fat-matched exercise-trained (EX) volunteers, who were eating Western …

The multiprotein complexes that receive and transmit axon pathfinding cues during development are essential to circuit generation. Here, we identify and characterize the Drosophila sterile α-motif (SAM) domain-containing protein Caskin, which shares homology with vertebrate Caskin, a CASK [calcium/calmodulin-(CaM)-activated serine-threonine kinase]-interacting protein. Drosophila caskin (ckn) is necessary for embryonic motor axon pathfinding and interacts genetically and physically with the leukocyte common antigen-related (Lar) receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase. In vivo and in vitro analyses of a panel of ckn loss-of-function alleles indicate that the N-terminal SAM domain of Ckn mediates its interaction with Lar. Like Caskin, Liprin-α is a neuronal adaptor …

New biomarkers with improved accuracy could be helpful for monitoring disease in patients with Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL). Towards this end, we have explored the feasibility of identifying the sequence of rearranged IgH genes using next-generation sequencing, then using PCR to detect specific rearranged DNA fragments in patients' plasma. By capturing and sequencing the IgH genomic regions (IgCap), we were able to detect and precisely determine the sequence of rearranged IgH loci in the tumors of three NHL patients. Moreover, circulating rearranged DNA fragments could be identified in the plasma of all three patients. Even in cases wherein tumor biopsies were …

Calcium-Independent Inhibitory G-Protein Signaling Induces Persistent Presynaptic Muting Of Hippocampal Synapses, Devon C. Crawford, Chun Yun Chang, Krzysztof L. Hyrc, Steven Mennerick Jan 2011

Calcium-Independent Inhibitory G-Protein Signaling Induces Persistent Presynaptic Muting Of Hippocampal Synapses, Devon C. Crawford, Chun Yun Chang, Krzysztof L. Hyrc, Steven Mennerick

Open Access Publications

Adaptive forms of synaptic plasticity that reduce excitatory synaptic transmission in response to prolonged increases in neuronal activity may prevent runaway positive feedback in neuronal circuits. In hippocampal neurons, for example, glutamatergic presynaptic terminals are selectively silenced, creating "mute" synapses, after periods of increased neuronal activity or sustained depolarization. Previous work suggests that cAMP-dependent and proteasome-dependent mechanisms participate in silencing induction by depolarization, but upstream activators are unknown. We, therefore, tested the role of calcium and G-protein signaling in silencing induction in cultured hippocampal neurons. We found that silencing induction by depolarization was not dependent on rises in intracellular calcium, …

Open Access Publications

In nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice, two sets of autoreactive CD4(+) T cells recognize the B:9-23 segment of the insulin B chain. One set, type A, recognizes insulin presented by antigen-presenting cells (APCs). These T cells are highly deleted in the thymus. The second set, type B, does not recognize insulin protein but reacts with soluble B chain peptide. This set is not deleted in the thymus but is activated in the islets of Langerhans. In this study, we examine the specificity of these two types of T cells. The protein-reactive set recognizes the stretch of residues 13-21 of the insulin …
