Methods: The functional role of KLF4 for angiogenesis and its association with CAD was examined in HUVECs and human CECs. Results: In two different angiogenesis assays, siRNA-mediated KLF4 downregulation impaired HUVEC sprouting and network formation. Conversely, KLF4 overexpression increased HUVEC sprouting and network formation. Similar findings were observed after incubation of HUVECs with CdM from KLF4 cDNA-transfected cells, suggesting a role of paracrine factors for mediating angiogenic KLF4 effects. In this regard, VEGF expression was increased in KLF4-overexpressing HUVECs, whereas its expression was reduced in HUVECs transfected with KLF4 siRNA. To examine the relevance of our in vitro findings for human endothelial dysfunction, we analyzed the expression of KLF4 in CECs of patients with stable CAD. Flow cytometry analyses revealed decreased numbers of KLF4-positive CECs in peripheral blood from CAD patients compared to healthy controls. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that KLF4 may represent a potential biomarker for EC dysfunction. In the future, (therapeutic) modulation of KLF4 may be useful in regulating EC function during vascular disease processes."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1111/micc.12226"],["dc.identifier.gro","3141793"],["dc.identifier.isi","000365387200003"],["dc.identifier.pmid","26214161"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/1135"],["dc.notes.intern","WoS Import 2017-03-10"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","PUB_WoS_Import"],["dc.relation.eissn","1549-8719"],["dc.relation.issn","1073-9688"],["dc.title","Circulating Endothelial Cells Expressing the Angiogenic Transcription Factor Kruppel-Like Factor 4 are Decreased in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Patients and methods 56 serum samples of 25 individuals who had donated blood prior to the first clinical MS manifestation (clinically isolated syndrome (CIS)) (four male subjects, 21 female subjects, mean age 31.5 years at time of pre-CIS blood sampling; mean age at disease onset 33.4 years) were available, covering an interval of 7.3 years-2 months (mean 31.5 months) before CIS. In 18 of 25 patients serum samples were also obtained after established diagnosis of MS. Longitudinal age- and gender-matched healthy blood donors (four male subjects, 21 female subjects, 39 samples, mean age 32.5 years) served as controls.

The ability to adapt prophylactic treatment according to the probability of severe GvHD would be an essential advantage for the patients. We analyzed different biomarkers for their potential to predict the development of GvHD in 28 patients who underwent allogeneic HSCT. Blood was taken once directly after hematopoietic engraftment. In this study, patients were monitored for 12 months after HSCT for the occurrence of acute GvHD or acute/chronic GvHD overlap syndrome. Soluble IL-2 receptor and CD4/CD8 T cell ratio were independently associated with the occurrence of GvHD in the observation period.

In addition, CD8(+) T cell levels above 2.3% of all mononuclear cells after engraftment may predict relapse-free survival at least for 12 months.

Human monocytes can be divided into CD14(++)CD16(-), CD14(++)CD16(+) and CD14(+)CD16(++) cells, which differ in their functional properties. The aim of this study was to examine monocyte subset distribution, monocyte-platelet aggregate (MPA) formation and expression of CCR5, the receptor of the platelet-derived chemokine CCL5, and to determine whether these parameters are altered in individuals with coronary atherosclerosis. MethodsPeripheral blood cells from 64 healthy blood donors (HBDs) and 60 patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) were stained with antibodies against CD14, CD16, CD42b and CCR5 and analysed by flow cytometry. Circulating CCL5 levels were determined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. ResultsIn patients with CAD, the relative proportion of the CD14(++)CD16(-) monocyte subset was elevated (P<0.05) and of the CD14(+)CD16(++) subset was reduced (P<0.001) compared with the HBD group. Furthermore, MPA formation significantly increased in patients with CAD in all three monocyte subsets. In both study groups, the majority of CCR5(+) cells was detected in CD14(++)CD16(+) monocytes (P<0.001 versus CD14(++)CD16(-) and CD14(+)CD16(++)), although the CCR5(+) monocyte number was reduced in patients with CAD (CD14(++)CD16(-)/CD14(+)CD16(++), P<0.001; CD14(++)CD16(+), P<0.05) compared with the HBD group, particularly in those who were not taking statins. Ex vivo incubation of monocytes from HBDs with plasma from patients with CAD also decreased CCR5(+) expression (P<0.05 versus plasma from HBDs). Serum CCL5 levels were similar in both groups. ConclusionsThe increased monocyte-platelet cross-talk in patients with CAD might have contributed to atherosclerosis progression. The decreased CCR5(+) monocyte numbers in patients with CAD could have resulted from CCR5(+) cell recruitment into atherosclerotic lesions or CCR5 downregulation in response to circulating factors."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1111/joim.12145"],["dc.identifier.gro","3142194"],["dc.identifier.isi","000329764500006"],["dc.identifier.pmid","24118494"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/5577"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","WoS Import 2017-03-10 / Funder: University Medical Center Gottingen"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","PUB_WoS_Import"],["dc.relation.eissn","1365-2796"],["dc.relation.issn","0954-6820"],["dc.title","Increased proatherogenic monocyte-platelet cross-talk in monocyte subpopulations of patients with stable coronary artery disease"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

PBSC were harvested in a 44-year-old female patient with a low-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma stage IV after mobilization with chemotherapy and G-CSF.

In particular, the specific contribution of risk or candidate gene variants to the complex schizophrenic phenotype is largely unknown. Objective: To prepare the ground for a novel “phenomics” approach, a unique schizophrenia patient database was established by GRAS (Göttingen Research Association for Schizophrenia), designed to allow association of genetic information with quantifiable phenotypes. Because synaptic dysfunction plays a key role in schizophrenia, the complexin 2 gene (CPLX2) was examined in the first phenotype-based genetic association study (PGAS) of GRAS. Design: Subsequent to a classic case-control approach, we analyzed the contribution of CPLX2 polymorphisms to discrete cognitive domains within the schizophrenic population. To gain mechanistic insight into how certain CPLX2 variants influence gene expression and function, peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients, Cplxnull mutantmice, and transfected cells were investigated.Setting: Coordinating research center (Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine) and 23 collaboratingpsychiatric centers all over Germany.Participants: One thousand seventy-one patients with schizophrenia (DSM-IV) examined by an invariant investigator team, resulting in the GRAS database with more than 3000 phenotypic data points per patient, and 1079 healthy control subjects of comparable ethnicity.Main Outcome Measure: Cognitive performance including executive functioning, reasoning, and verbal learning/memory. Results: Six single-nucleotide polymorphisms, distributed over the whole CPLX2 gene, were found to be highly associated with current cognition of schizophrenic subjects but only marginally with premorbid intelligence. Correspondingly, in Cplx2-null mutant mice, prominent cognitive loss of function was obtained only in combination with a minor brain lesion applied during puberty, modeling a clinically relevant environmental risk (“second hit”) for schizophrenia. In the human CPLX2 gene, 1 of the identified 6 cognition-relevant single-nucleotide polymorphisms, rs3822674 in the 3´ untranslated region, was detected to influence microRNA-498 binding and gene expression. The same marker was associated with differential expression of CPLX2 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Conclusions: The PGAS allows identification of markerassociated clinical/biological traits.

On the basis of the position and bonding of six conserved cysteine residues, they are divided into two families, designated alpha- and beta-defensins. Human alpha-defensins are expressed predominantly in neutrophils (human neutrophil peptides (HNP) 1-4) or intestinal Paneth cells (human defensins (HD) 5 and 6). Although a-defensins have been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease, their immunomodulatory functions are poorly understood. In the present study, HNP-1, HNP-3, and HD5 were found to be potent chemotaxins for macrophages but not dendritic cells using G alpha(i) proteins and MAPK as signal transducers. alpha-Defensins were also chemoattractive for the human mast cell line HMC-1 but lacked, in contrast to beta-defensins, the ability to induce intracellular calcium fluxes. Furthermore, HNP-1, HNP-3, and HD5 comparably mobilized naive as well as memory T lymphocytes. Using the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors GF109 and 666976, we observed a PKC-independent functional desensitization to occur between human a-defensins, which suggests a common receptor for HNP-1, HNP-3, and HD5 on immune cells. This a-defensin receptor was subject to heterologous desensitization by the PKC activator PMA and to PKC-dependent cross-desensitization by human beta-defensins. Conversely, a-defensins desensitized beta-defensin-mediated migration of immune cells in a PKC-dependent manner, suggesting unique receptors for both defensin families. Taken together, our observations indicate that chemoattraction of macrophages, T lymphocytes, and mast cells represents an immunomodulatory function which is evolutionarily conserved within the human alpha-defensin family and tightly regulated by beta-defensins."],["dc.identifier.isi","000249465600066"],["dc.identifier.pmid","17785833"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/50497"],["dc.notes.status","zu prĂĽfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Amer Assoc Immunologists"],["dc.relation.issn","0022-1767"],["dc.title","Chemoattraction of macrophages, T lymphocytes, and mast cells is evolutionarily conserved within the human alpha-defensn family"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Hemolysis and platelet dysfunction due to turbulence in the blood suction system strongly impede later usage of suction blood for re-transfusion. The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of a novel surgical-blood suction system with an automatic control setup for minimization of turbulence in the blood flow. Methods: We compared the turbulence-controlled suction system (TCSS) with a conventional suction system and untreated control blood in vitro. Blood cell counts, hemolysis levels according to free hemoglobin (fHb) and platelet function were analyzed to determine the integrity of the suction blood. Results: In the conventional suction system, we found a strong increase of the fHb levels. In contrast, erythrocyte integrity was almost completely preserved when using the TCSS. We obtained similar results regarding platelet function. The expression of platelet glycoproteins, such as GP IIb/IIIa and P-selectin, native or after stimulation with ADP, were markedly impaired by the conventional system, but not by the TCSS. In addition, platelet aggregometry revealed significant platelet dysfunction in conventional suction blood, but less aggregation impairments were present in blood samples from the TCSS. Conclusion: Our findings on an in vitro assessment show major improvements in red blood cell integrity and platelet function of suction blood when using the TCSS compared to a conventional suction system. These results reflect a significant benefit for autologous re-transfusion. We suggest testing the TCSS in surgery for clinical evaluation."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1177/0267659118790915"],["dc.identifier.eissn","1477-111X"],["dc.identifier.issn","0267-6591"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/77305"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-354"],["dc.publisher","SAGE Publications"],["dc.relation.eissn","1477-111X"],["dc.relation.issn","0267-6591"],["dc.title","The effect of a novel turbulence-controlled suction system in the prevention of hemolysis and platelet dysfunction in autologous surgery blood"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
