Abstract
We reported a formin homology sequence and actin assembly activity in association with macrophage beta-3 integrin. In this study we demonstrate by quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting that the formin FRL1 is specifically upregulated during monocyte differ...

Abstract
Human postnatal stem cells have been identified in periodontal ligaments (PDLs). In this study, the in vitro biologic properties of CD105(+) enriched cell subsets from PDLs harvested from deciduous (DePDL) and permanent (PePDL) teeth are comparatively assessed.
PDL tissue was obtained from 12 teeth...

Abstract
The phenotypes of these two patients represent new entities/syndromes within the Cenani-Lenz clinical spectrum: (1) an autosomal recessive oligosyndactyly, radio-ulnar synostosis, hearing loss and renal defect syndrome; and (2) an autosomal dominant Cenani-Lenz-like non-syndromic oligosyndactyly....

Abstract
We show that the C-terminal "basic" domain of APC (APC-B) potently nucleates the formation of actin filaments in vitro and stimulates actin assembly in cells. Nucleation is achieved by a mechanism involving APC-B dimerization and recruitment of multiple actin monomers. Further, APC-B nucleation acti...

Abstract
The aim of this study was to verify the existence of a side population (SP) of cells in second-trimester amniotic fluid.
Amniotic fluid samples (n = 35) were obtained, and the number and size of viable amniotic fluid cells (AFCs) were analyzed. Small AFCs (SAFCs) and large AFCs (LAFCs) were isolated...

Abstract
Our researches with use of fluorescing antibodies to AFP, CEA and Ca-19-9 have shown that they are intensively besieged on a surface of cultivated malignant cells. It is the basic mechanism of tolerance and immunological escape, which is similar to pregnancy when "the maximal immunological most favo...

Abstract
We show that mesoderm specific deletion of Tbx1, a T-box transcription factor and gene for velo-cardio-facial/DiGeorge syndrome, results in defects in formation of the proximal mandible by shifting expression of Fgf8, Bmp4 and their downstream effector genes in mouse embryos at E10.5. This occurs wi...

Abstract
We first evaluated the effects of various light energies on normal cutaneous vessels over a period of 14 days, particularly the proliferation and stem cell marker expression of dermal endothelial cells, which were found to be highest 8 days following laser exposure. We found that PDL exposure induce...

Abstract
We review the features of novel IHC marker antibodies applicable to selected nonglial tumors in the nervous system, based on recently published reports and our own experiences. We discuss (1) aquaporin-1 and alpha-inhibin for hemangioblastoma, (2) beta-catenin for craniopharyngioma, (3) brachyury fo...

Abstract
This editorial addresses the debate concerning the origin of adult nucleus pulposus cells in the light of profiling studies by Minogue and colleagues. In their report of several marker genes that distinguish nucleus pulposus cells from other related cell types, the authors provide novel insights int...

Abstract
We show that a key function of the developmentally essential Nodal-Smads2/3 (Smad2 and Smad3) signaling pathway is to recruit the histone demethylase Jmjd3 to target genes, thereby counteracting repression by Polycomb. Smads2/3 bound to Jmjd3 and recruited it to chromatin in a manner that was depend...

Abstract
We examined nine known SNPs in seven genes (GHR, IGFBP3, IGFR1, IRS1, FMN1, ANXA2, TaGLN) in ethnic Russians and in patients with prostate cancer (PC). For Russian population data on genotype distribution in studied SNPs was obtained. It was revealed that six of nine analyzed sites in examined locus...

We now know that these responses occur within the secondary lymphoid structures as they can be conveniently tracked through the use of defined, often transgenic fetal antigens and maternal T cell receptors. Although the secondary lymphoid organs are sites of both immunization and tolerization to ant...

Abstract
We demonstrate that, in contrast, efficient protrusion formation and intercellular spread depend on actin polymerization that involves activation of the Diaphanous formin Dia. While the Shigella virulence protein IpgB2 can bind and activate Dia1 (N. M. Alto et al., Cell 124:133-145, 2006), its absen...

Abstract
We identified unique duplications of a region on 6q27 in four multiplex families with at least three cases of chordoma, a cancer of presumed notochordal origin. The duplicated region contains only the T (brachyury) gene, which is important in notochord development and is expressed in most sporadic c...

We developed an in vitro screen for inhibitors of actin assembly by mDia1 and identified an inhibitor of mDia1 and mDia2 that does not inhibit mDia3 at the concentrations tested. These results establish the druggability of mDia formins and introduce a first-generation inhibitor....

Abstract
We compared their expression and prognostic significance in 110 colorectal adenocarcinomas. We demonstrate that expression of CD133 correlates with that of CD166, while both do not correlate with CD44. We show that CD133 is the best sole marker to predict low patient survival, while the combined ana...

Abstract
Our findings support the hypothesis that the disruption of ALCAM-mediated adhesiveness is a relevant step in pancreatic cancer progression. Moreover, ALCAM overexpression is a relevant independent prognostic marker for poor survival and early tumour relapse in pancreatic cancer....

Abstract
Our data reveal increased Bone Morphogenetic Protein (Bmp) activity in mice which carry a disruption in Fmn1, as evidenced by upregulation of Msx1 and a decrease in Fgf4 within the apical ectodermal ridge. Additionally, these studies show enhanced activity downstream of the Bmp receptor in cells whe...
