In recent years there has been a great deal of interest in “modular reinforcement learning” (MRL). Typically, problems are decomposed into concurrent subgoals, allowing increased scalability and state abstraction. An arbitrator combines the subagents’ preferences to select an action. In this work, we contrast treating an MRL agent as a set of subagents with the same goal with treating an MRL ag...
Sunlight (UVB) triggers cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) and systemic lupus through an unknown mechanism. We tested the hypothesis that UVB triggers CLE through a CSF-1-dependent, macrophage (Mø)-mediated mechanism in MRL-Fas(lpr) mice. By constructing mutant MRL-Fas(lpr) strains expressing varying levels of CSF-1 (high, intermediate, none), and use of an ex vivo gene transfer to deliver CSF...
Tissue damage associated with a severe injury can result in profound inflammatory responses that may trigger autoimmune development in lupus-prone individuals. In this study, we investigated the role of a large full-thickness cutaneous burn injury on the early onset of autoimmune disease in lupus-prone MRL/++ mice. MRL/++ mice (chronic model) exhibit autoimmune symptoms at >70 weeks of age, whe...
Costimulatory molecules, termed B7.1 and B7.2, are present on the surfaces of APC and are important for the activation of T lymphocytes specific for both foreign Ags and autoantigens. We have examined the role of B7 costimulation in the MRL-lpr/lpr murine model of human systemic lupus erythematosus. MRL-lpr/lpr mice receiving both anti-B7.1 and anti-B7.2 Abs expressed significantly lower anti-s...
A species difference was observed in the excretion pathway of 2-[[5,7-dipropyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2-benzisoxazol-6-yl]oxy]-2-methylpropanoic acid (MRL-C), an alpha-weighted dual peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha/gamma agonist. After intravenous or oral administration of [14C]MRL-C to rats and dogs, radioactivity was excreted mainly into the bile as the acyl glucuronide metabol...
Gene-targeted C1q-deficient mice have been shown to develop a syndrome reminiscent of human systemic lupus erythematosus with antinuclear Abs and proliferative glomerulonephritis. Initial phenotypic analysis conducted in (129 x C57BL/6) hybrid mice showed that background genes were a significant factor for the full expression of the autoimmune disease. To assess the contribution of background g...
Natural autoantibodies (NAA) and their associated B cells constitute a substantial proportion of the normal Ab and B cell repertoire. They often have weak reactivity toward a variety of self-Ags such as DNA, nucleoproteins, and phospholipids. It remains controversial whether NAA contribute to or protect from autoimmune diseases. Using site-directed transgenic (sd-tg) mice expressing a prototypi...
MRL-lpr/lpr mice develop a severe autoimmune disease that resembles systemic lupus erythematosis in humans. The predominant immunological feature in these mice is the development of peripheral lymphadenopathy due to the expansion of an unusual T cell subset (TCR-alpha/beta +5CD3+4-8-B220+), which may be related to the onset of their autoimmunity. However, it is unknown whether such abnormal lym...
Designs of the double sampling (DS) X chart are traditionally based on the average run length (ARL) criterion. However, the shape of the run length distribution changes with the process mean shifts, ranging from highly skewed when the process is in-control to almost symmetric when the mean shift is large. Therefore, we show that the ARL is a complicated performance measure and that the median r...
The novel mannose-binding rice lectin (MRL) purified by Sephadex G-50 or maltamyl Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography was not homogeneous, but the components were separated clearly by two dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (1st; isoelectric focusing with Immobiline, 2nd; SDS-PAGE). The major spots were located at pI 4.85 and 4.74, and minor spots at pI 4.66, 4.56, and 4.44; all spo...
