Publications
Notch and the immune systemB Osborne
Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, University of Massachusetts, Amherst 01003, USA
Immunity 11:653-63. 1999
Transcriptional control of T cell developmentB A Osborne
Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA 01003, USA
Curr Opin Immunol 12:301-6. 2000..Additionally, a unique function of Ikaros in chromatin remodeling reveals a novel mechanism by which transcriptional control may be exerted...
Notch signalling during peripheral T-cell activation and differentiationBarbara A Osborne
Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Massachusetts 01003, USA
Nat Rev Immunol 7:64-75. 2007..As interest in this issue grows, it is becoming increasingly clear that the main role of Notch signalling, to regulate cell-fate decisions, might also be influential in peripheral T cells...
Lymphoid development: it's not 'all Greek to us' any moreBarbara A Osborne
Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Massachusetts 01003, USA
Nat Immunol 6:119-23. 2005
Notch1 augments NF-kappaB activity by facilitating its nuclear retentionHyun Mu Shin
Molecular and Cellular Biology Program, University of Massachusetts Amherst, Amherst, MA 01003, USA
EMBO J 25:129-38. 2006..Taken together, these data suggest that there are two 'waves' of NF-kappaB activation: an initial, Notch-independent phase, and a later, sustained activation of NF-kappaB, which is Notch dependent...
TCR-mediated Notch signaling regulates proliferation and IFN-gamma production in peripheral T cellsTanapat Palaga
Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA 01003, USA
J Immunol 171:3019-24. 2003..Our data reveal a new, nondevelopmental function of Notch as a previously unknown key link in peripheral T cell activation and cytokine secretion...
p53 regulates thymic Notch1 activationAmy M Laws
Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, University of Massachusetts, Amherst 01003, USA
Eur J Immunol 34:726-34. 2004..Skewing of T cell development toward CD8+SP T cells in Trp53(-/-) mice is reminiscent of the phenotype of NIC-overexpressing mice. Thus, we suggest that p53 plays a role in T cell development, in part by regulating Notch1 activation...
Cell death in the thymus--it' s all a matter of contactsLisa M Minter
Program in Molecular and Cellular Immunology, Department of Animal Biotechnology and Biomedical Sciences, University of Massachusetts, 311 Paige Laboratory, Amherst, MA 01003, USA
Semin Immunol 15:135-44. 2003..We hypothesize that the immunological synapse (IS) may be critical to transducing survival signals during thymocyte development, and suggest that factors affecting IS assembly may also influence T cell selection...
Defects of immune regulation in the presenilin-1 mutant knockin mouseGrant A Morgan
Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, University of Massachusetts, 311 Paige Lab, Amherst, MA 01003, USA
Neuromolecular Med 9:35-45. 2007..These findings suggest that abnormalities in immune function might play major roles in the pathogenesis of AD...
c-Jun N-terminal kinase 1 is required for Toll-like receptor 1 gene expression in macrophagesHooman Izadi
Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, University of Massachusetts Amherst, MA 01003, USA
Infect Immun 75:5027-34. 2007..These results demonstrate that JNK1 regulates the response to TLR1/2 ligands and suggest a positive feedback loop that may serve to increase the innate immune response to the spirochete...
Notch1 and TGFbeta1 cooperatively regulate Foxp3 expression and the maintenance of peripheral regulatory T cellsJeremy B Samon
Program in Animal Biotechnology and Biomedical Science, University of Massachusetts Amherst, MA 01003, USA
Blood 112:1813-21. 2008..Together, these findings indicate that the Notch and TGFbeta signaling pathways cooperatively regulate Foxp3 expression and regulatory T-cell maintenance both in vitro and in vivo...
Notch regulates cytolytic effector function in CD8+ T cellsOk Hyun Cho
Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA 01003, USA
J Immunol 182:3380-9. 2009..By abrogating Notch signaling, both biochemically as well as genetically, we conclude that Notch activity mediates CTL activity through direct regulation of EOMES, perforin, and granzyme B...
Phosphorylation of Nur77 by the MEK-ERK-RSK cascade induces mitochondrial translocation and apoptosis in T cellsAibo Wang
Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA 01003, USA
J Immunol 183:3268-77. 2009..Our data reveal that Nur77 phosphorylation and mitochondrial targeting, regulated by RSK, defines a role for the MEK1/2-ERK1/2 cascade in T cell apoptosis...
