Journal ArticleDOI

ZPR1 is essential for survival and is required for localization of the survival motor neurons (SMN) protein to Cajal bodies

TL;DR: It is reported that targeted ablation of the Zpr1 gene in mice disrupts the subcellular localization of both SMN and spliceosomal snRNPs and indicates that ZPR1 contributes to the regulation of SMN complexes and that it is essential for cell survival.
Journal Article

Protective antibodies in murine Lyme disease arise independently of CD40 ligand.

TL;DR: Data show that B. burgdorferi-infected CD40L-deficient mice are capable of producing Abs that are protective, despite the inability of these mice to mediate T-dependent immune responses.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Role of Toll-Like Receptors 3 and 9 in the Development of Autoimmune Diabetes in NOD Mice

TL;DR: The results suggest that different TLRs play a varying role in autoimmune diseases, and NOD mice that are deficient in TLR3 and 9 were markedly protected from the disease compared to TLR9 heterozygous mice.
Journal Article

alpha beta T cell regulation and CD40 ligand dependence in murine systemic autoimmunity.

TL;DR: Disruption of CD40L and alpha beta T cells provides a novel dissection of the physiology and pathology of murine lupus and suggests a role for alphabeta T cells in the down-regulation of autoimmunity driven by other T cells.

The Presumptive Phosphatidylserine Receptor Is Dispensable for Innate Anti-inflammatory Recognition and Clearance of

TL;DR: It is concluded that PSR is not involved generally in either specific innate recognition or engulfment of apoptotic cells, and does not play a role in pro-inflammatory transcription or in the anti-inflammatory modulation of that transcriptional response triggered by apoptosis.
