IL-13 receptors and signaling pathways: An evolving web

TL;DR: The current understanding of the IL-13 receptors and signaling pathways is summarized, supported by many in vivo observations, including that administration ofIL-13 resulted in allergic inflammation, tissue-specific overexpression of IL- 13 in the lungs of transgenic mice resulted in airway inflammation and mucus hypersecretion.

A Critical Role for Stat3 Signaling in Immune Tolerance

TL;DR: It is shown that Stat3 signaling plays a critical role in the induction of antigen-specific T cell tolerance, and provides a novel molecular target for manipulation of immune activation/tolerance, a central decision with profound implications in autoimmunity, transplantation, and cancer immunotherapy.

Gm-CSF regulates pulmonary surfactant homeostasis and alveolar macrophage-mediated innate host defense.

TL;DR: Observations demonstrate that GM-CSF has a critical role in regulation of surfactant homeostasis and alveolar macrophage innate immune functions in the lung.

The Human and Mouse Complement of SH2 Domain Proteins—Establishing the Boundaries of Phosphotyrosine Signaling

TL;DR: This information delimits the set of SH2-containing effectors available for PTK signaling and will facilitate the systems-level analysis of pTyr-dependent protein-protein interactions and PTK-mediated signal transduction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Closing in on the biological functions of Fps/Fes and Fer.

TL;DR: Fps/Fes and Fer are the only known members of a distinct subfamily of the non-receptor protein-tyrosine kinase family that have roles in regulating cytoskeletal rearrangements and inside–out signalling that accompany receptor–ligand, cell–matrix and cell–cell interactions.

Jak-STAT pathways and transcriptional activation in response to IFNs and other extracellular signaling proteins

TL;DR: A previously unrecognized direct signal transduction pathway to the nucleus has been uncovered: IFN-receptor interaction at the cell surface leads to the activation of kinases of the Jak family that phosphorylate substrate proteins called STATs (signal transducers and activators of transcription).

STATs and Gene Regulation

TL;DR: The discovery of a STAT in Drosophila, and most recently in Dictyostelium discoideum, implies an ancient evolutionary origin for this dual-function set of proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

A rapid micropreparation technique for extraction of DNA-binding proteins from limiting numbers of mammalian cells.

TL;DR: The aim in developing this micropreparation procedure was to easily and rapidly extract DNA-binding proteins from small numbers of cells, and it gives an excellent yield, comparable to that of the large scale Dignam protocol with minimal proteolysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Formation of germ-line chimaeras from embryo-derived teratocarcinoma cell lines

TL;DR: The results of blastocyst injection studies using three independently isolated XY embryo-derived cell lines, which produce a very high proportion of live-born animals that are overtly chimaeric, are reported.
