Differentiation of Effector CD4 T Cell Populations

TL;DR: This review summarizes the discovery, functions, and relationships among Th cells; the cytokine and signaling requirements for their development; the networks of transcription factors involved in their differentiation; the epigenetic regulation of their key cytokines and transcription factors; and human diseases involving defective CD4 T cell differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Growth Factors, Matrices, and Forces Combine and Control Stem Cells

TL;DR: Multifaceted technologies are increasingly required to produce and interrogate cells ex vivo, to build predictive models, and, ultimately, to enhance stem cell integration in vivo for therapeutic benefit.
Journal ArticleDOI

MicroRNA control of signal transduction.

TL;DR: New evidence suggests that miRNAs affect the responsiveness of cells to signalling molecules such as transforming growth factor-β, WNT, Notch and epidermal growth factor, which serves as nodes of signalling networks that ensure homeostasis and regulate cancer, metastasis, fibrosis and stem cell biology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Balancing forces: architectural control of mechanotransduction

TL;DR: Sustained disruptions in tensional homeostasis can be caused by alterations in the extracellular matrix, allowing it to serve as a mechanically based memory-storage device that can perpetuate a disease or restore normal tissue behaviour.

High levels of Notch signaling down-regulate Numb and Numblike

TL;DR: Observations reveal a reciprocal negative regulation between Notch and Numb/Numblike, which may be of relevance for stabilizing asymmetric cell fate switches and for tumor development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Notch Signaling: Endocytosis Makes Delta Signal Better

TL;DR: Findings indicate that, paradoxically, endocytosis of a membrane-spanning ligand may up-regulate receptor activity: the zebrafish E3 ligase Mind bomb promotes the endocyTosis of Delta and is required for efficient activation of Notch.

A dominant-negative form of Serrate acts as a general antagonist of Notch activation

TL;DR: This work demonstrates that BD(G) can act as a general antagonist of both SERRATE and DELTA mediated NOTCH interactions, however, it retains the SERRate protein domain targeted by FRINGE, hence its antagonistic effects are restricted in the dorsal wing disc.

Erratum: Embryonic lethality in mice homozygous for a processing-deficient allele of Notch1 (Nature (2000) 405 (966-970))

TL;DR: In this article, the authors correct the article DOI: 35016111 and present a new version of the article with the same title: http://www.journals.informatics.edu.

Oscillations, clocks and segmentation.

TL;DR: Interestingly, the oscillatory expression of Hes1 is observed in many cell types after serum stimulation, suggesting that this ultradian clock is not unique to presomitic mesoderm cells but widely distributed.
