We have cloned a TNFR family member from a follicular dendritic cell (FDC)-like cell line,
FDC-1. This molecule, FDC-derived receptor-1 (FDCR-1), is identical to osteoprotegerin …

We isolated Nd1, a novel kelch family gene that encodes two forms of proteins, Nd1-L and
Nd1-S. Nd1-L contains a BTB/POZ domain in its N terminus and six kelch repeats in the C …

Interleukin-4 (IL-4) stimulates B cell growth and differentiation, such asinducingmature B
cells to switch to IgG1 and IgE production. To further characterize IL-4effects on Bcells, we …

For naive B cells to mature in response to antigen triggering and become either plasma cells
or memory B cells, a complex array of events takes place within germinal centers (GC) of …

Gadd45γ, a family member of the growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible gene family 45
(Gadd45), is strongly induced by interleukin-2 (IL-2) in peripheral T cells. While in most …

Using a method of expression profiling called differential analysis of cDNA library
expression (DAzLE), we report the expression profile of late response genes in a model of …

Representational difference analysis (RDA) was used to compare gene expression in
equine mononuclear cells either infected with equine herpesvirus-2 (EHV-2) or adsorbed …

Cyclosporin A (CSA) is an immunosuppressor used in organ transplantation. A recent
proteomic analysis has revealed that activation of T cells in the presence of CSA induces the …

Abstract Genomic Representational Difference Analysis (gRDA) is a subtractive DNA
method to clone the differences between two related genomes, called tester and driver. We …

Thymocytes interact with various subpopulations of thymic epithelial cells (TECs) at different
stages of their development. To identify new molecules specifically expressed in TECs …
