Abstract:
:HIV-1 infection in the brain induces neuronal apoptosis leading to HIV-associated dementia. To explore the underlying mechanism, we developed a murine model by using human peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC)-transplanted nonobese diabetic (NOD)-severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) (hu-PBMC-NOD-SCID) mice. Administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to HIV-1-infected hu-PBMC-NOD-SCID mice induced infiltration of HIV-1-infected human cells into the perivascular region of the brain and neuronal apoptosis was found in macrophage (M)-tropic but not T cell (T)-tropic HIV-1-infected brains. The apoptotic neurons were frequently colocalized with the HIV-1-infected macrophages that expressed tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL). Administration of a neutralizing antibody against human TRAIL but not human TNF-alpha or Fas ligand (FasL) blocked the neuronal apoptosis in the HIV-1-infected brain. These results strongly suggest a critical contribution of TRAIL expressed on HIV-1-infected macrophages to neuronal apoptosis.

杂志文章abstract::p63 inhibits metastasis. Here, we show that p63 (both TAp63 and ΔNp63 isoforms) regulates expression of miR-205 in prostate cancer (PCa) cells, and miR-205 is essential for the inhibitory effects of p63 on markers of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), such as ZEB1 and vimentin. Correspondingly, the inhibitory ef...
