Journal ArticleDOI
BCL2 protein is topographically restricted in tissues characterized by apoptotic cell death.
TL;DR: The BCL2 protooncogene encodes an inner mitochondrial membrane protein that blocks programmed cell death and its function as an antidote to apoptosis may confer longevity to progenitor and effector cells in these tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pneumococcal Capsules and Their Types: Past, Present, and Future.
K. Aaron Geno,Gwendolyn L. Gilbert,Gwendolyn L. Gilbert,Joon Young Song,Ian C. Skovsted,Keith P. Klugman,Christopher Jones,Helle Bossen Konradsen,Moon H. Nahm +8 more
TL;DR: Improvements in capabilities will greatly enhance future investigations of pneumococcal epidemiology and diseases and the biology of colonization and innate immunity to pneumococcas capsules, and more-precise and -efficient serotypes that directly detect polysaccharide structures are emerging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antiphosphocholine antibodies found in normal mouse serum are protective against intravenous infection with type 3 streptococcus pneumoniae
David E. Briles,Moon H. Nahm,Kenneth R. Schroer,Joseph M. Davie,Phillip J. Baker,John F. Kearney,Raúl G. Barletta +6 more
TL;DR: The antiphosphocholine antibody in normal mouse sera (NMS) provides protection against intravenous infection with encapsulated strain WU2 of type 3 Streptococcus pneumoniae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discovery of a New Capsular Serotype (6C) within Serogroup 6 of Streptococcus pneumoniae
In Ho Park,David G. Pritchard,Rob Cartee,Angela Pires Brandão,Angela Pires Brandão,Maria Cristina de Cunto Brandileone,Moon H. Nahm +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a new serotype may exist within an established and well-characterized serogroup or serotype, with 90 pneumococcal serotypes having previously been recognized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of lymphotoxin and the type I TNF receptor in the formation of germinal centers.
Mitsuru Matsumoto,Sanjeev Mariathasan,Moon H. Nahm,Ferenc Baranyay,Jacques J. Peschon,David D. Chaplin +5 more
TL;DR: Germinal center formation was restored in LT- α-deficient mice by transplantation of normal bone marrow, indicating that the LT-α-expressing cells required to establish this lymphoid structure are derived from bone marrow.
