--- _id: '1910' abstract: - lang: eng text: angerhans cells (LCs) are a unique subset of dendritic cells (DCs) that express epithelial adhesion molecules, allowing them to form contacts with epithelial cells and reside in epidermal/epithelial tissues. The dynamic regulation of epithelial adhesion plays a decisive role in the life cycle of LCs. It controls whether LCs remain immature and sessile within the epidermis or mature and egress to initiate immune responses. So far, the molecular machinery regulating epithelial adhesion molecules during LC maturation remains elusive. Here, we generated pure populations of immature human LCs in vitro to systematically probe for gene-expression changes during LC maturation. LCs down-regulate a set of epithelial genes including E-cadherin, while they upregulate the mesenchymal marker N-cadherin known to facilitate cell migration. In addition, N-cadherin is constitutively expressed by monocyte-derived DCs known to exhibit characteristics of both inflammatory-type and interstitial/dermal DCs. Moreover, the transcription factors ZEB1 and ZEB2 (ZEB is zinc-finger E-box-binding homeobox) are upregulated in migratory LCs. ZEB1 and ZEB2 have been shown to induce epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and invasive behavior in cancer cells undergoing metastasis. Our results provide the first hint that the molecular EMT machinery might facilitate LC mobilization. Moreover, our study suggests that N-cadherin plays a role during DC migration. acknowledgement: 'FWF.

A central tool in such proofs is that of a game, where winning the game means provoking a certain condition, and it is shown that the two systems considered cannot be distinguished unless this condition is provoked. Upper bounding the probability of winning such a game, i.e., provoking this condition, for an arbitrary strategy is usually hard, except in the special case where the best strategy for winning such a game is known to be non-adaptive. A sufficient criterion for ensuring the optimality of non-adaptive strategies is that of conditional equivalence to a system, a notion introduced in [1]. In this paper, we show that this criterion is not necessary to ensure the optimality of non-adaptive strategies by giving two results of independent interest: 1) the optimality of non-adaptive strategies is not preserved under parallel composition; 2) in contrast, conditional equivalence is preserved under parallel composition.' article_number: '6875125' author: - first_name: Grégory full_name: Demay, Grégory last_name: Demay - first_name: Peter full_name: Gazi, Peter id: 3E0BFE38-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Gazi - first_name: Ueli full_name: Maurer, Ueli last_name: Maurer - first_name: Björn full_name: Tackmann, Björn last_name: Tackmann citation: ama: 'Demay G, Gazi P, Maurer U, Tackmann B.

In asexual populations, these mutations must either arise on the same background or compete against each other. In sexual populations, recombination can bring together beneficial alleles from different backgrounds, but tightly linked alleles may still greatly interfere with each other. We show for well-mixed populations that when this interference is strong, the genome can be seen as consisting of many effectively asexual stretches linked together. The rate at which beneficial alleles fix is thus roughly proportional to the rate of recombination and depends only logarithmically on the mutation supply and the strength of selection. Our scaling arguments also allow us to predict, with reasonable accuracy, the fitness distribution of fixed mutations when the mutational effect sizes are broad. We focus on the regime in which crossovers occur more frequently than beneficial mutations, as is likely to be the case for many natural populations. author: - first_name: Daniel full_name: Weissman, Daniel id: 2D0CE020-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Weissman - first_name: Oskar full_name: Hallatschek, Oskar last_name: Hallatschek citation: ama: Weissman D, Hallatschek O.

Restricted Tverberg partitions, defined by the idea that certain points cannot be in the same part, are encoded with graphs. When two points are adjacent in the graph, they are not in the same part. If the restrictions are too harsh, then the topological Tverberg theorem fails. The colored Tverberg theorem corresponds to graphs constructed as disjoint unions of small complete graphs. Hell studied the case of paths and cycles. In graph theory these partitions are usually viewed as graph colorings. As explored by Aharoni, Haxell, Meshulam and others there are fundamental connections between several notions of graph colorings and topological combinatorics. For ordinary graph colorings it is enough to require that the number of colors q satisfy q>Δ, where Δ is the maximal degree of the graph. It was proven by the first author using equivariant topology that if q>Δ 2 then the topological Tverberg theorem still works. It is conjectured that q>KΔ is also enough for some constant K, and in this paper we prove a fixed-parameter version of that conjecture. The required topological connectivity results are proven with shellability, which also strengthens some previous partial results where the topological connectivity was proven with the nerve lemma. acknowledgement: Patrik Norén gratefully acknowledges support from the Wallenberg foundation author: - first_name: Alexander full_name: Engström, Alexander last_name: Engström - first_name: Patrik full_name: Noren, Patrik id: 46870C74-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Noren citation: ama: Engström A, Noren P.

Although the genetic basis is partly understood, only a fraction of cases can receive a genetic diagnosis, and a global view of HSP is lacking. By using whole-exome sequencing in combination with network analysis, we identified 18 previously unknown putative HSP genes and validated nearly all of these genes functionally or genetically. The pathways highlighted by these mutations link HSP to cellular transport, nucleotide metabolism, and synapse and axon development. Network analysis revealed a host of further candidate genes, of which three were mutated in our cohort. Our analysis links HSP to other neurodegenerative disorders and can facilitate gene discovery and mechanistic understanding of disease. acknowledgement: Supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (G.N.) article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Gaia full_name: Novarino, Gaia id: 3E57A680-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87 last_name: Novarino orcid: 0000-0002-7673-7178 - first_name: Ali full_name: Fenstermaker, Ali last_name: Fenstermaker - first_name: Maha full_name: Zaki, Maha last_name: Zaki - first_name: Matan full_name: Hofree, Matan last_name: Hofree - first_name: Jennifer full_name: Silhavy, Jennifer last_name: Silhavy - first_name: Andrew full_name: Heiberg, Andrew last_name: Heiberg - first_name: Mostafa full_name: Abdellateef, Mostafa last_name: Abdellateef - first_name: Başak full_name: Rosti, Başak last_name: Rosti - first_name: Eric full_name: Scott, Eric last_name: Scott - first_name: Lobna full_name: Mansour, Lobna last_name: Mansour - first_name: Amira full_name: Masri, Amira last_name: Masri - first_name: Hülya full_name: Kayserili, Hülya last_name: Kayserili - first_name: Jumana full_name: Al Aama, Jumana last_name: Al Aama - first_name: Ghada full_name: Abdel Salam, Ghada last_name: Abdel Salam - first_name: Ariana full_name: Karminejad, Ariana last_name: Karminejad - first_name: Majdi full_name: Kara, Majdi last_name: Kara - first_name: Bülent full_name: Kara, Bülent last_name: Kara - first_name: Bita full_name: Bozorgmehri, Bita last_name: Bozorgmehri - first_name: Tawfeg full_name: Ben Omran, Tawfeg last_name: Ben Omran - first_name: Faezeh full_name: Mojahedi, Faezeh last_name: Mojahedi - first_name: Iman full_name: Mahmoud, Iman last_name: Mahmoud - first_name: Naïma full_name: Bouslam, Naïma last_name: Bouslam - first_name: Ahmed full_name: Bouhouche, Ahmed last_name: Bouhouche - first_name: Ali full_name: Benomar, Ali last_name: Benomar - first_name: Sylvain full_name: Hanein, Sylvain last_name: Hanein - first_name: Laure full_name: Raymond, Laure last_name: Raymond - first_name: Sylvie full_name: Forlani, Sylvie last_name: Forlani - first_name: Massimo full_name: Mascaro, Massimo last_name: Mascaro - first_name: Laila full_name: Selim, Laila last_name: Selim - first_name: Nabil full_name: Shehata, Nabil last_name: Shehata - first_name: Nasir full_name: Al Allawi, Nasir last_name: Al Allawi - first_name: Parayil full_name: Bindu, Parayil last_name: Bindu - first_name: Matloob full_name: Azam, Matloob last_name: Azam - first_name: Murat full_name: Günel, Murat last_name: Günel - first_name: Ahmet full_name: Caglayan, Ahmet last_name: Caglayan - first_name: Kaya full_name: Bilgüvar, Kaya last_name: Bilgüvar - first_name: Aslihan full_name: Tolun, Aslihan last_name: Tolun - first_name: Mahmoud full_name: Issa, Mahmoud last_name: Issa - first_name: Jana full_name: Schroth, Jana last_name: Schroth - first_name: Emily full_name: Spencer, Emily last_name: Spencer - first_name: Rasim full_name: Rosti, Rasim last_name: Rosti - first_name: Naiara full_name: Akizu, Naiara last_name: Akizu - first_name: Keith full_name: Vaux, Keith last_name: Vaux - first_name: Anide full_name: Johansen, Anide last_name: Johansen - first_name: Alice full_name: Koh, Alice last_name: Koh - first_name: Hisham full_name: Megahed, Hisham last_name: Megahed - first_name: Alexandra full_name: Dürr, Alexandra last_name: Dürr - first_name: Alexis full_name: Brice, Alexis last_name: Brice - first_name: Giovanni full_name: Stévanin, Giovanni last_name: Stévanin - first_name: Stacy full_name: Gabriel, Stacy last_name: Gabriel - first_name: Trey full_name: Ideker, Trey last_name: Ideker - first_name: Joseph full_name: Gleeson, Joseph last_name: Gleeson citation: ama: Novarino G, Fenstermaker A, Zaki M, et al.
