Full textOur results demonstrate the entry of bacterial-derived LPS during the acute GVH reaction and that as a result of M$ phi$ priming, LPS in the transplant recipient acts as a trigger for TNF-$ alpha$ and NO production by M$ phi$. The presence of enteric Gram-negative bacteria is a risk factor for development of acute GVHD due to the triggering effect of LPS on M$ phi$ that are primed following bone marrow transplantation. The development of acute GVHD therefore involves the excessive priming of M$ phi$ followed by contact with LPS leading to the activation of NO and TNF-$ alpha$-mediated mechanisms of tissue injury, weight loss, septic shock and death of the transplant recipient.

Full textOverall, results from empirical and modeling work revealed an intimate link between symmetry perception and the properties of spatial filters. In particular, I argue that the size of the IR tends to vary such that a fixed amount of information is integrated irrespective of the spatial properties of the stimulus. Implications for the functional architecture of symmetry perception are discussed, and a paradigm for future research in symmetry perception is proposed in which spatial filtering is extended to higher orders of spatial complexity.

Full textTiivistelmä Kudosvaurioiden paranemiseen ja syövän etenemiseen liittyy useita samankaltaisia mekanismeja. Molemmissa toimivat soluvälitilan muokkaamiseen osallistuvat proteaasit, joista matriksin metalloproteinaaseilla (MMP) on tärkeä merkitys; ne osallistuvat lukuisiin elimistön keskeisiin fysiopatologisiin prosesseihin. Kollagenaasi MMP-8 muokkaa monentyyppisiä molekyylejä. Se on mukana ihohaavan paranemisessa ja useissa syövissä. MMP-8:n toiminta syöpätiloissa on hyvin moninainen riippuen syöpätyypistä ja sijainnista. Väitöstutkimuksessa selvitettiin MMP-8:n merkitystä suun kova- ja pehmytkudosvaurioprosesseissa sekä kielisyövässä, joissa se on ollut tuntematon. MMP-8 poistogeenisillä hiirillä tehdyissä pehmyt- ja kovakudoshaavoissa MMP-8:n vaikutusmekanismit riippuivat kohdekudoksesta. Alveoliluun paranemisen yhteydessä MMP-8 lisäsi tulehdusta ja osallistui kollageenin muokkaamiseen. Akuutin kielihaavan paranemisessa MMP-8 hidasti haavan umpeutumista ja vähensi transformoivan kasvutekijä-β1:n (TGF-β1) määrää. Kuten useissa muissakin syövissä, myös kielisyövässä todettiin MMP-8:lla olevan suojaava vaikutus. Potilaan ennuste huononi, jos kasvainsolukon matala MMP-8-taso yhdistyi korkeaan verisuonten kasvutekijä-C:n (VEGF-C) määrään. Hiiren kielen normaaleissa fibroblastiviljelmissä MMP-8 vähensi TGF-β1:n solunsisäistä signalointia välittävän fosforyloidun Smad2:n määrää sekä solujen kykyä supistaa kollageenikiekkoja. Koeputkessa MMP-8 pilkkoi TGF-β1:tä, estrogeenireseptoreja (ER) ja apoptoositekijä Fas-ligandia (Fas-L). Ihmisen kielikarsinoomasoluviljelmissä korkea MMP-8:n määrä vähensi solujen migraatiota ja invaasiota sekä muutti MMP-1:n, MMP-9:n, katepsiini-K:n, TGF-β1:n ja VEGF-C:n ilmentymistä. Migraation heikentyminen MMP-8:aa tuottavissa soluissa johtui osin vähentyneestä TGF-β1:n määrästä. Hiiren kokeellisissa kielisyövissä MMP-8 hidasti syövän muodostumista mutta ei estänyt etäpesäkkeiden muodostusta. Tässä väitöskirjatutkimuksessa on kolme päälöydöstä: 1) MMP-8:n vaikutus kudoksen paranemisprosessiin riippuu vauriokohdasta, 2) MMP-8 on kielisyövän kehittymisessä puolustuksellinen molekyyli, mutta sen lisääntynyt tuotto ei hiirikokeissa estänyt etäpesäkkeiden muodostusta, 3) MMP-8:lle löydettiin neljä uutta kohdemolekyyliä (TGF-β1, Fas-L, ER-α ja -β), joiden muokkaus saattaa osin selittää MMP-8:n monipuoliset kudos- ja prosessispesifit vaikutukset

Full textExtravasation of circulating cancer cells is a key event of metastatic dissemination that is initiated by the adhesion of cancer cells to vascular endothelial cells. It requires the interaction between adhesion receptors such as E-selectin present on endothelial cells and their ligands on cancer cells. Notably, E-selectin influences the metastatic potential of breast, bladder, gastric, pancreatic, and colorectal carcinoma as well as of leukemia and lymphoma. Here, we show that E-selectin expression is targeted by two distinct sets of microRNAs (miRNAs); i.e. miR-31, which targets E-selectin mRNA directly, and miR-146a and -181a/b, which repress E-selectin expression indirectly by targeting the upstream pro-inflammatory NF-κB pathway. MAP kinases play pivotal roles in the transcription of some of these miRNAs in response to IL-1β, in that p38 and JNK control the transcription of miR-31, and that p38, ERK and JNK mediate the transcription of miR-146a. The downstream transcription factors of MAK kinases, namely GATA2, c-Fos and c-Jun modulate the transcription of both miRNAs. Inhibiting p38 MAP kinase increases NF-κB activity, at least partially via miR-146a. Inhibiting p38 also increases the expression of E-selectin at the post-transcriptional level via decreasing miR-31. In response to IL-1β, p38 MAP kinase hence represses the expression of E-selectin at the transcriptional and the post-transcriptional levels, via miR-146a and miR-31, respectively. These results highlight a novel mechanism by which p38 downregulates the expression of E-selectin through microRNAs following inflammatory stimuli. The miR-31/-146a-mediated repression of E-selectin impairs the metastatic potential of colon cancer cells by decreasing their adhesion to, and migration through, the endothelium. These results highlight for the first time that miRNAs mediate E-selectindependent extravasation of colon cancer cells.
