JEM Vol. 202, No. 8, 2005 1014 CD103 spurs on suppressors An integrin expressed by gut dendritic cells (DCs) gives regulatory T (T reg) cells the green light for suppression, according to a study on page 1051. Annacker and colleagues show that DCs expressing the integrin CD103 are required for T reg cells to subdue gutattacking effector T cells in a mouse model of inflammatory bowel disease (IB...
متن کاملSwitching septins spurs sporulation
Septins are a family of GTP-binding proteins that, in most fungi and animals, form hetero-octameric rods containing two copies each of four different family members. These rods can then assemble into higher-order structures that perform a variety of cellular functions, depending on their subunit composition. The human genome, for example, encodes 13 different septins expressed by specifi c cell...
متن کاملSetback spurs Parkinson's disease research
results of the first controlled trial of the technique of implanting foetal cells into the brains of Parkinson’s disease patients, published last month, which found no overall benefit and left a number of the patients with tragic side effects which cannot be undone. But many researchers are concerned that the response to this new study, which some newspapers called a ‘catastrophe’, may overshad...
متن کاملTumor suppressors: enhancers or suppressors of regeneration?
Tumor suppressors are so named because cancers occur in their absence, but these genes also have important functions in development, metabolism and tissue homeostasis. Here, we discuss known and potential functions of tumor suppressor genes during tissue regeneration, focusing on the evolutionarily conserved tumor suppressors pRb1, p53, Pten and Hippo. We propose that their activity is essentia...
متن کاملModulation of CD103 expression on human colon carcinoma-specific CTL.
Recent results have shown a correlation between survival and frequency of tumor-infiltrating T cells in colorectal cancer patients. However, the mechanisms controlling the ability of human T lymphocytes to infiltrate colon carcinoma remain unclear. Although, it is known that expression of the integrin CD103alpha(E)/beta(7) by intraepithelial lymphocytes controls the retention of lymphocytes in ...
