Distinct gene expression patterns correlate with developmental and functional traits of iNKT subsets
Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells comprise a subpopulation of innate lymphocytes developing in thymus. A new model proposes subdividing murine iNKT cells into iNKT1, 2 and 17 cells. Here, we use transcriptome analyses of iNKT1, 2 and 17 subsets isolated from BALB/c and C57BL/6 thymi to identify candidate genes that may affect iNKT cell development, migration or function. We show that Fcɛr...
متن کاملDevelopmental Expression Patterns of Glycinergic Phenotype Markers
tegmentum (Flint et al., 1998). More recently Scain et al. (2010) have described non-synaptic glycine signaling in the embryonic spinal cord. A complete understanding of glycinergic transmission must entail knowledge of how cells acquire a glycinergic phenotype and the role of glycinergic signaling in development. This review summarizes the current understanding of glycinergic signaling in deve...
متن کاملVascular patterns of the mammalian testis and their functional significance.
Even a superficial examination of the testes of various animals, for example rat and rabbit, is sufficient to make obvious that there are fundamental differences in their vascular supply and that the vessels display remarkable complexity both in their venous and arterial course. That morphological differences may exist between different animals has long been realized; thus de Graff (1677) clear...
متن کاملDevelopmental expression of functional cyclooxygenases in zebrafish.
Study of the cyclooxygenases (COXs) has been limited by the role of COX-2 in murine reproduction and renal organogenesis. We sought to characterize COX expression and function in zebrafish (z). Full-length cDNAs of zCOX-1 and zCOX-2 were cloned and assigned to conserved regions of chromosomes 5 and 2, respectively. The deduced proteins are 67% homologous with their human orthologs. Prostaglandi...
متن کاملDistinct Functional Interactions between Actin Isoforms and Nonsarcomeric Myosins
Despite their near sequence identity, actin isoforms cannot completely replace each other in vivo and show marked differences in their tissue-specific and subcellular localization. Little is known about isoform-specific differences in their interactions with myosin motors and other actin-binding proteins. Mammalian cytoplasmic β- and γ-actin interact with nonsarcomeric conventional myosins such...
