    Abstract Microglial activation is an early and common feature of almost all neuropathologies, including multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease and mechanical injury. To better understand the relative contributions microglia make toward neurodegeneration and neuroprotection, we used TOGA(R) to identify molecules expressed by microglia and regulated by inflammatory signals. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-2 (TREM-2) was among the mRNAs identified as being expressed by unactivated microglia, but down-regulated by lipopolysaccharide/interferon gamma. In the healthy CNS, not all microglia expressed TREM-2. Microglial expression of TREM-2 varied not only between brain regions but also within each brain region. Brain regions with an incomplete blood-brain barrier had the lowest percentages of TREM-2- expressing microglia, whereas the lateral entorhinal and cingulate cortex had the highest percentages. A novel form of TREM-2b that lacked a transmembrane domain was detected, perhaps indicating a soluble form of the protein. Taken together, these data suggest that (1) subsets of microglia are specialized to respond to defined extracellular signals; and (2) regional variations in TREM-2 expression may contribute to the varying sensitivities of different brain regions to similar pathological signals.

    Abstract Ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by loss of function of the serine/threonine protein kinase ATM (ataxia telangiectasia mutated). A-T patients have a 250-700-fold increased risk of developing lymphomas and leukemias which are typically highly invasive and proliferative. In addition, a subset of adult acute lymphoblastic leukemias and aggressive B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemias that occur in the general population show loss of heterozygosity for ATM. To define the specific role of ATM in lymphomagenesis, we studied T-cell lymphomas isolated from mice with mutations in ATM and/or p53 using cytogenetic analysis and mRNA transcriptional profiling. The analyses identified genes misregulated as a consequence of the amplifications, deletions and translocation events arising as a result of ATM loss. A specific recurrent disruption of the granzyme gene family locus was identified resulting in an aberrant granzyme B/C fusion product. The combined application of cytogenetic and gene expression approaches identified specific loci and genes that define the pathway of initiation and progression of lymphoreticular malignancies in the absence of ATM.

    Abstract A cDNA library was constructed from poly(A)+ RNA prepared from VERO cells infected with the Edmonston strain of measles virus. Clones corresponding to five major viral-specific transcripts were identified by northern blot hybridization analysis. Probes prepared from these five clones detected an additional five minor viral RNA transcripts. The sizes and hydridization patterns of these minor RNA species are consistent with their being bicistronic transcripts arising from a viral genomic template with the gene order 3’. NP-P/C-M-F-HA-(L).. 5’. To assess the coding capacity of these cDNA clones they were inserted into pSP64, transcribed in vitro, the RNA was translated in reticulocyte lysates, and the protein was immunoprecipitated with specific antisera. From this analysis the genes for NP, P/C, M, F, and HA were identified. In vitro translation of natural mRNAs and SP6 transcripts of cDNAs consistently produced smaller polypeptides that appear to be initiated at internal AUGs. The relative abundance of these various cell-free translation products reflects the probability of translational initiation at the various in-frame AUGs. The patterns observed suggest that other factors besides sequences immediately flanking the AUGs have a significant effect on the selection of translational initiation sites. An increase in translational efficiency of the F transcript was achieved by removing 450 bases of the G-C-rich 5’ noncoding region.

    Abstract The International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) was launched to coordinate large-scale cancer genome studies in tumours from 50 different cancer types and/or subtypes that are of clinical and societal importance across the globe. Systematic studies of more than 25,000 cancer genomes at the genomic, epigenomic and transcriptomic levels will reveal the repertoire of oncogenic mutations, uncover traces of the mutagenic influences, define clinically relevant subtypes for prognosis and therapeutic management, and enable the development of new cancer therapies.
