NKT cell stimulation with glycolipid antigen in vivo

TL;DR: Understanding of how NKT cells respond to primary and secondary antigenic challenge in vivo is significantly enhanced, suggesting that the pool size is regulated by apoptotic death, similar to that of conventional T cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

The RUNX3 tumor suppressor upregulates Bim in gastric epithelial cells undergoing transforming growth factor beta-induced apoptosis.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that RUNX3 is responsible for transcriptional up-regulation of Bim in TGF-β-induced apoptosis, and apoptosis was reduced to the same extent as that in Bim−/− gastric epithelium.
Journal Article

E mu-bcl-2 transgene facilitates spontaneous transformation of early pre-B and immunoglobulin-secreting cells but not T cells.

TL;DR: To assess the lymphoid tumorigenic potential of bCl-2, mice of five independent strains expressing a bcl-2 transgene in B and/or T cells were monitored for disease up to 12 months of age, finding plasmacytomas secreting immunoglobulin and novel lymphomas that expressed markers consistent with an origin very early in B-lymphoid development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Peripheral deletion of autoreactive CD8 T cells by cross presentation of self-antigen occurs by a Bcl-2-inhibitable pathway mediated by bim

TL;DR: The molecular basis of cross-tolerance was investigated and Bim, a pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 family member whose function can be inhibited by B cl-2, was found to play a critical role in the deletion of autoreactive thymocytes, leading us to examine its role in cross-Tolerance.
