Key Role Of T Cell Defects In Age-Related Vulnerability To West Nile Virus, James D. Brien, Jennifer L. Uhrlaub, Alec Hirsch, Clayton A. Wiley, Janko Nikolich-Zugich Jan 2009

Key Role Of T Cell Defects In Age-Related Vulnerability To West Nile Virus, James D. Brien, Jennifer L. Uhrlaub, Alec Hirsch, Clayton A. Wiley, Janko Nikolich-Zugich

Open Access Publications

West Nile virus (WNV) infection causes a life-threatening meningoencephalitis that becomes increasingly more prevalent over the age of 50 and is 40-50x more prevalent in people over the age of 70, compared with adults under the age of 40. In a mouse model of age-related vulnerability to WNV, we demonstrate that death correlates with increased viral titers in the brain and that this loss of virus control with age was the result of defects in the CD4 and CD8 T cell response against WNV. Specific age-related defects in T cell responses against dominant WNV epitopes were detected at the level …


Trem-2 (Triggering Receptor Expressed On Myeloid Cells 2) Is A Phagocytic Receptor For Bacteria, Elsa-Noah N'Diaye, Catherine S. Branda, Steven S. Branda, Lisette Nevarez, Marco Colonna, Clifford Lowell, Jessica A. Hamerman, William E. Seaman Jan 2009

Trem-2 (Triggering Receptor Expressed On Myeloid Cells 2) Is A Phagocytic Receptor For Bacteria, Elsa-Noah N'Diaye, Catherine S. Branda, Steven S. Branda, Lisette Nevarez, Marco Colonna, Clifford Lowell, Jessica A. Hamerman, William E. Seaman

Open Access Publications

Phagocytosis, which is essential for the immune response to pathogens, is initiated by specific interactions between pathogens and cell surface receptors expressed by phagocytes. This study identifies triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM-2) and its signaling counterpart DAP12 as a molecular complex that promotes phagocytosis of bacteria. Expression of TREM-2-DAP12 enables nonphagocytic Chinese hamster ovary cells to internalize bacteria. This function depends on actin cytoskeleton dynamics and the activity of the small guanosine triphosphatases Rac and Cdc42. Internalization also requires src kinase activity and tyrosine phosphorylation. In bone marrow-derived macrophages, phagocytosis is decreased in the absence of DAP12 …


Cdc42 Antagonizes Rho1 Activity At Adherens Junctions To Limit Epithelial Cell Apical Tension, Stephen J. Warner, Gregory D. Longmore Jan 2009

Cdc42 Antagonizes Rho1 Activity At Adherens Junctions To Limit Epithelial Cell Apical Tension, Stephen J. Warner, Gregory D. Longmore

Open Access Publications

In epithelia, cells are arranged in an orderly pattern with a defined orientation and shape. Cadherin containing apical adherens junctions (AJs) and the associated actomyosin cytoskeleton likely contribute to epithelial cell shape by providing apical tension. The Rho guanosine triphosphatases are well known regulators of cell junction formation, maintenance, and function. Specifically, Rho promotes actomyosin activity and cell contractility; however, what controls and localizes this Rho activity as epithelia remodel is unresolved. Using mosaic clonal analysis in the Drosophila melanogaster pupal eye, we find that Cdc42 is critical for limiting apical cell tension by antagonizing Rho activity at AJs. Cdc42 …

Diagnosing Cervical Fusion: A Comprehensive Literature Review, Nanin Sethi, James Devney, Holly L. Steiner, K. Daniel Riew Dec 2008

Diagnosing Cervical Fusion: A Comprehensive Literature Review, Nanin Sethi, James Devney, Holly L. Steiner, K. Daniel Riew

Open Access Publications

STUDY DESIGN: Comprehensive literature review.

PURPOSE: To document the criteria for fusion utilized in these studies to determine if a consensus on the definition of a solid fusion exists.

OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE: Numerous studies have reported on fusion rates following anterior cervical arthrodesis. There is a wide discrepancy in the fusion rates in these studies. While factors such as graft type, Instrumentation, and technique play a factor in fusion rate, another reason for the difference may be a result of differences in the definition of fusion following anterior cervical spine surgery.

METHODS: A comprehensive English Medline literature review from 1966 …
