Nuocytes are a recently described cell that responds to both IL-25 and IL-33 and produce high levels of IL-13 and IL-5
Nuocytes represent a new innate effector leukocyte that mediates type-2 immunity.

View SamplesThe Runx genes are important in development and cancer, where they can act either as oncogenes or tumour supressors. We compared the effects of ectopic Runx expression in established fibroblasts, where all three genes produce an indistinguishable phenotype entailing epithelioid morphology and increased cell survival under stress conditions. Gene array analysis revealed a strongly overlapping transcriptional signature, with no examples of opposing regulation of the same target gene. A common set of 50 highly regulated genes was identified after further filtering on regulation by inducible RUNX1-ER. This set revealed a strong bias toward genes with annotated roles in cancer and development, and a preponderance of targets encoding extracellular or surface proteins reflecting the marked effects of Runx on cell adhesion.
Gene array analysis reveals a common Runx transcriptional programme controlling cell adhesion and survival.

View SamplesmiR-155 transgenic mice develop pre-B cell leukemia/lymphoma. Though some targets of miR-155 are known, understanding of the mechanism by which miR-155 overexpression drives malignant transformation is not known. MicroRNAs regulate multiple genes.
miR-155 targets histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) and impairs transcriptional activity of B-cell lymphoma 6 (BCL6) in the Eμ-miR-155 transgenic mouse model.
