Keratinocytes are known to synthesize cortisol through activation of the enzyme 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 (11β-HSD1). To confirm the function of 11β-HSD1 in keratinocytes during inflammation in vivo, we created keratinocyte-specific-11β-HSD1 knockout mice (K5-Hsd11b1-KO mice) and analyzed the response to narrow-band ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) irradiation. Firstly, we measured the mRNA and ...
The mRNA derived from influenza B virus RNA segment 6 is functionally bicistronic and encodes the NB and NA glycoproteins in different, overlapping reading frames. NB protein synthesis is initiated at the 5'-proximal AUG codon, and 4 nucleotides downstream there is a second AUG codon which is used to initiate NA protein synthesis. The nucleotide sequence context of the first AUG codon conforms ...
We outline what an integrated approach to language research that connects experimental, theoretical, and neurobiological domains of inquiry would look like, and ask to what extent unification is possible across domains. At the center of the program is the idea that computational/representational (CR) theories of language must be used to investigate its neurobiological (NB) foundations. We consi...
Neuroblastoma originates from neural crest cells and is the most common extracranial solid tumor in childhood. Bone metastasis in neuroblastoma is an unfavorable prognostic factor even with intensive therapy. In the present study, we screened four cell lines of human neuroblastoma (NB-1, NB-16, NB-19, and NH-6) for tumorigenicity and metastatic capacity in nude mice and found that NB-19 cells c...
Neuroblastoma (NB), the most common solid cancer in early childhood, usually occurs sporadically but also its familial occurance is known in 1-2% of NB patients. Germline mutations in the ALK and PHOX2B genes have been found in a subset of familial NBs. However, because some individuals harbouring mutations in these genes do not develop this tumor, additional genetic alterations appear to be re...
Bone marrow (BM) is a frequent site of metastasis in children with neuroblastoma (NB). Nonhematopoietic cell lines of the same neuroectodermal origin produce both stem cell factor (SCF) and its receptor, the product of the c-kit protooncogene (c-kit). Because recombinant SCF is likely to be soon clinically tested to accelerate BM recovery after high-dose chemotherapy, a treatment administered t...
Nanobarcoding: detecting nanoparticles in biological samples using in situ polymerase chain reaction
BACKGROUND Determination of the fate of nanoparticles (NPs) in a biological system, or NP biodistribution, is critical in evaluating an NP formulation for nanomedicine. Current methods to determine NP biodistribution are greatly inadequate, due to their limited detection thresholds. Herein, proof of concept of a novel method for improved NP detection based on in situ polymerase chain reaction (...
Purpose: Neuroblastoma (NB) is a neural crest-derived tumor that commonly occurs in childhood. b-1,4-Galactosyltransferase III (B4GALT3) is highly expressed inhuman fetal brain and is responsible for the generation of poly-N-acetyllactosamine, which plays a critical role in tumor progression. We therefore investigated the expression and role of B4GALT3 in NB. Experimental Design:We examined B4G...
Treatment failure in high risk neuroblastoma (NB) is largely due to the development of chemotherapy resistance. We analyzed the gene expression changes associated with exposure to chemotherapy in six high risk NB tumors with the aid of the Connectivity Map bioinformatics platform. Ten therapeutic agents were predicted to have a high probability of reversing the transcriptome changes associated ...
BACKGROUND Activated AKT is a marker of decreased event-free or overall survival in neuroblastoma (NB) patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of perifosine, a nontoxic AKT inhibitor, as a single agent on NB cell growth in vitro and in vivo. METHODS Four human NB cell lines (AS, NGP, BE2, and KCNR) were treated with increasing concentrations of perifosine, and a quantita...
