TLDR
CDNA clones encoding CD68 are isolated from a U937 cDNA library by transient expression in COS cells and panning with the anti-CD68 monoclonal antibodies Y2/131, Y1/82A, EBM11, and Ki-M6.

Peroxisome proliferator–activated receptor γ ligands inhibit development of atherosclerosis in LDL receptor–deficient mice

TL;DR: It is reported that the PPARγ-specific agonists rosiglitazone and GW7845 strongly inhibited the development of atherosclerosis in LDL receptor‐deficient male mice, despite increased expression of the CD36 scavenger receptor in the arterial wall.

Osteal tissue macrophages are intercalated throughout human and mouse bone lining tissues and regulate osteoblast function in vitro and in vivo.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that OsteoMacs are an integral component of bone tissues and play a novel role in bone homeostasis through regulating osteoblast function and implicate OsteiMacs, in addition to osteoclasts and osteoblasts, as principal participants in bone dynamics.

M1 and M2 macrophages derived from THP-1 cells differentially modulate the response of cancer cells to etoposide.

TL;DR: These results evidence for the first time a clear protective effect of M2 on the contrary to M1 macrophages on etoposide-induced cancer cell apoptosis.

The presence of tumor associated macrophages in tumor stroma as a prognostic marker for breast cancer patients

TL;DR: It was found that infiltration of CD163+ and CD68+ macrophages into tumor stroma, but not into tumor nest, were of clinical relevance and an independent prognostic factor for reduced breast cancer specific survival.

Binding of Ovarian Cancer Antigen CA125/MUC16 to Mesothelin Mediates Cell Adhesion

TL;DR: The data indicate that mesothelin is a novel CA125-binding protein and that CA125 might contribute to the metastasis of ovarian cancer to the peritoneum by initiating cell attachment to the mesothelial epithelium via binding to Mesothelin.

DNA sequencing with chain-terminating inhibitors

TL;DR: A new method for determining nucleotide sequences in DNA is described, which makes use of the 2',3'-dideoxy and arabinon nucleoside analogues of the normal deoxynucleoside triphosphates, which act as specific chain-terminating inhibitors of DNA polymerase.

A comprehensive set of sequence analysis programs for the VAX

TL;DR: A group of programs that will interact with each other has been developed for the Digital Equipment Corporation VAX computer using the VMS operating system.

Leukocytes roll on a selectin at physiologic flow rates: Distinction from and prerequisite for adhesion through integrins

TL;DR: Rolling of leukocytes on vascular endothelial cells, an early event in inflammation, can be reproduced in vitro on artificial lipid bilayers containing purified CD62, a selectin also named PADGEM and GMP-140 that is inducible on endothelial Cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid similarity searches of nucleic acid and protein data banks.

TL;DR: An algorithm for the global comparison of sequences based on matching k-tuples of sequence elements for a fixed k results in substantial reduction in the time required to search a data bank when compared with prior techniques of similarity analysis, with minimal loss in sensitivity.

Molecular cloning of a CD28 cDNA by a high-efficiency COS cell expression system

TL;DR: A cDNA clone encoding CD28 is isolated by a simple and highly efficient cloning strategy based on transient expression in COS cells based on the use of an efficient method to prepare large plasmid cDNA libraries.
