Abstract 4769: Relevance of the TRIF pathway for in vivo gp96-mediated CD8+ T cell cross presentation
Abstract
Heat shock protein gp96 is an intracellular chaperone for proteins and peptides generated during protein synthesis and degradation. Different candidate receptors including CD91, TLR2 and TLR4 have been shown as important binders in the gp96 mediated cross-priming process. Both TLR2 and TLR4 use the common MyD88 signaling pathway suggesting it is an important mediator of gp96-mediated cross-priming. Our group has produced a secreted form of hsp-gp96, a fusion protein gp96-Ig. Ggp96-Ig-transfected tumor cells secrete gp96-Ig in vivo and cross prime CD8 CTL that are specific for genuine tumors antigens (Ag) and for the surrogate Ag OVA. In this work, we studied the role of both MyD88 and TRIF signaling pathways in gp96-mediated cross presentation. Briefly, one million of ovalbumin specific T cell receptor (TCR) transgenic CD8+ cells (OT-I)-gfp, were transferred intravenously into MyD88 deficient (MyD88−/−) mice, TRIF deficient (TRIF Lps2/Lps2) mice and C57/BL6 wild type (B6-WT) mice as control. Two days later the mice were immunized intraperitoneally with two million of 3T3-gp96-mIgG1-OVA cells or 3T3-OVA cells respectively. Five days later, we obtained peritoneal cells (PECs) and splenocytes in order to analyze OT-I-gfp expansion, IFNγ production, CD107a degranulation and cytokine (IL-6, TNFα, IL-10) production by ELISA. Gp96 induced CD8 CTL (OT-I) expansion is significantly increased in MyD88−/− mice compared to WT mice and significantly decreased in TRIF deficient mice. However, the frequency of IFNγ expression in CTL is diminished in MyD88−/− while is normal in TRIF deficient mice. IL-6 and TNFα production by antigen presenting cells isolated from the peritoneal cavity, was reduced in MyD88−/− mice compared with WT and TRIF deficient mice. The data indicate that both, MyD88 and TRIF mediated signals are required for full CD8 CTL expansion and cytotoxic differentiation.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
