Abstract 要求简洁,连贯 s`;f2B/|
The acquisition of metastatic ability by tumor cells is considered a late event in the h/m6)m.D
evolution of malignant tumors. We report that untransformed mouse mammary cells that W5 ec
have been engineered to express the inducible oncogenic transgenes MYC and KrasD12, or JN(-.8<
polyoma middle T, and introduced into the systemic circulation of a mouse can bypass Cy@ cLdV
transformation at the primary site and develop into metastatic pulmonary lesions upon fYX<d%?7
immediate or delayed oncogene induction. Therefore, previously untransformed +}JM&bfK
mammary cells may establish residence in the lung once they have entered the <[i}n55
bloodstream and may assume malignant growth upon oncogene activation. Mammary >5ChcefH
cells lacking oncogenic transgenes displayed a similar capacity for long-term residence in -6C +LbV
the lungs but did not form ectopic tumors. L0"~[zB]N
Almost two decades after CFTR was identified as the gene responsible for cystic fibrosis |5MbAqjzC
(CF), we still lack answers to many questions about the pathogenesis of the disease, and it goZ V.,w
remains incurable. Mice with a disrupted CFTR gene have greatly facilitated CF studies, PJ\0JR7a
but the mutant mice do not develop the characteristic manifestations of human CF, xDjV`E]
including abnormalities of the pancreas, lung, intestine, liver, and other organs. Because Z^ar.boc
pigs share many anatomical and physiological features with humans, we generated pigs s([dGD$i
with a targeted disruption of both CFTR alleles. Newborn pigs lacking CFTR exhibited -d=WV:G%e
defective chloride transport and developed meconium ileus, exocrine pancreatic =.Tv)/ea

recognition of antigens in the adaptive immune system of jawless vertebrates. `dW]4>`O
Combinatorial assembly of leucine-rich repeat (LRR) gene segments achieves the \ |!\V
required repertoire for antigen recognition. We have determined a crystal structure for a U[\Vj_?(I
VLR-antigen complex, VLR RBC36 in complex with the H-antigen trisaccharide from 2A:,;~UH
human blood type O erythrocytes, at 1.67 angstrom resolution. RBC36 binds the {?8B,G2r
H-trisaccharide on the concave surface of the LRR modules of the solenoid structure Xm!-~n@-m7
where three key hydrophilic residues, multiple van der Waals interactions, and the highly q|(W-h+
variable insert of the carboxyl-terminal LRR module determine antigen recognition and u{e-G&]^;
specificity. The concave surface assembled from the most highly variable regions of the \}"m'(\c
LRRs, along with diversity in the sequence and length of the highly variable insert, can 27Emm
