Abstract
Climate change is increasing ocean temperatures and consequently impacts marine life (e.g., bacterial communities). In this context, studying host-pathogen interactions in marine organisms is becoming increasingly important, not only for ecological conservation, but also to reduce economic loss due to mass mortalities in cultured species. In this study, we used Exaiptasia pallida (E. pallida), an anemone, as an emerging marine model to better understand the effect of rising temperatures on the infection induced by the pathogenic marine bacterium Vibrio parahaemolyticus. The effect of temperature on E. pallida was examined at 6, 24, or 30 h after bath inoculation with 108 CFU of V. parahaemolyticus expressing GFP (Vp-GFP) at 27°C (husbandry temperature) or 31°C (heat stress). Morphological observations of E. pallida and their Hsps expression demonstrated heat stress induced increasing damage to anemones. The kinetics of the infections revealed that Vp-GFP were localized on the surface of the ectoderm and in the mucus during the first hours of infection and in the mesenterial filaments thereafter. To better identify the E. pallida cells targeted by Vp-GFP infection, we used spectral flow cytometry. E. pallida cell types were identified based on their autofluorescent properties. corresponding to different cell types (algae and cnidocytes). We identified an AF10 population whose autofluorescent spectrum was identical to that of human monocytes/macrophage, suggesting that this spectral print could be the hallmark of phagocytic cells called "amebocytes''. AF10 autofluorescent cells had a high capacity to phagocytize Vp-GFP, suggesting their possible role in fighting infection. This was confirmed by microscopy using sorted AF10 and GFP-positive cells (AF10+/GFP+). The number of AF10+/GFP+ cells were reduced at 31°C, demonstrating that increased temperature not only damages tissue but also affects the immune response of E. pallida. In conclusion, our study provides a springboard for more comprehensive studies of immune defense in marine organisms and paves the way for future studies of the dynamics, activation patterns, and functional responses of immune cells when encountering pathogens.

Abstract
Bone destruction is a hallmark of chronic inflammation, and bone-resorbing osteoclasts arising under such a condition differ from steady-state ones. However, osteoclast diversity remains poorly explored. Here, we combined transcriptomic profiling, differentiation assays and in vivo analysis in mouse to decipher specific traits for inflammatory and steady-state osteoclasts. We identified and validated the pattern-recognition receptors (PRR) Tlr2, Dectin-1, and Mincle, all involved in yeast recognition as major regulators of inflammatory osteoclasts. We showed that administration of the yeast probiotic Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745 (Sb) in vivo reduced bone loss in ovariectomized but not sham mice by reducing inflammatory osteoclastogenesis. This beneficial impact of Sb is mediated by the regulation of the inflammatory environment required for the generation of inflammatory osteoclasts. We also showed that Sb derivatives as well as agonists of Tlr2, Dectin-1, and Mincle specifically inhibited directly the differentiation of inflammatory but not steady-state osteoclasts in vitro. These findings demonstrate a preferential use of the PRR-associated costimulatory differentiation pathway by inflammatory osteoclasts, thus enabling their specific inhibition, which opens new therapeutic perspectives for inflammatory bone loss.

Abstract
Climate change driven seawater temperature (SWT) increases results in greater abundance and geographical expansion of marine pathogens, among which Vibrio parahaemolyticus (Vp) causes serious economic and health issues. In addition, plastic pollution in the ocean constitutes a vector for harmful pathogens dissemination. We investigate the effect of elevated SWT on the expression of genes implicated in adhesion and biofilm formation on abiotic surfaces in the clinical Vp strain RIMD2210633, which expresses hemolysins. Among the genes studied, the multivalent adhesion molecule-7 and the GlcNAc-binding protein A were involved in the adhesion of Vp to abiotic and biotic surfaces, whereas the type IV pili, the mannose-sensitive hemagglutinin, and the chitin-regulated pilins facilitate attachment and biofilm formation. Data presented here show that at 21°C, Vp is still viable but does not either proliferate or express the virulence factors studied. Interestingly, at 27°C and as early as 1 h of incubation, all factors are transiently expressed in free-living bacteria only and even more upregulated at 31°C. These results clearly show that increased SWT has an important impact on the adhesion properties of free-living Vp to plastic support and thus emphasize the role of climate change in the spread of this pathogenic bacteria.

Abstract
A crucial phase in the infection process, which remains poorly understood, is the localization of suitable host cells by bacteria. It is often assumed that chemotaxis plays a key role during this phase. Here, we report a quantitative study on how Salmonella Typhimurium search for T84 human colonic epithelial cells. Combining time-lapse microscopy and mathematical modeling, we show that bacteria can be described as chiral active particles with strong active speed fluctuations, which are of biological, as opposed to thermal, origin. We observe that there exists a giant range of inter-individual variability of the bacterial exploring capacity. Furthermore, we find Salmonella Typhimurium does not exhibit biased motion towards the cells and show that the search time statistics is consistent with a random search strategy. Our results indicate that in vitro localization of host cells, and also cell infection, are random processes, not involving chemotaxis, that strongly depend on bacterial motility parameters.

Abstract
Inflammasomes are signalling platforms that are assembled in response to infection or sterile inflammation by cytosolic pattern recognition receptors. The consequent inflammasome-triggered caspase-1 activation is critical for the host defence against pathogens. During infection, NLRP3, which is a pattern recognition receptor that is also known as cryopyrin, triggers the assembly of the inflammasome-activating caspase-1 through the recruitment of ASC and Nek7. The activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome is tightly controlled both transcriptionally and post-translationally. Despite the importance of the NLRP3 inflammasome regulation in autoinflammatory and infectious diseases, little is known about the mechanism controlling the activation of NLRP3 and the upstream signalling that regulates the NLRP3 inflammasome assembly. We have previously shown that the Rho-GTPase-activating toxin from Escherichia coli cytotoxic necrotizing factor-1 (CNF1) activates caspase-1, but the upstream mechanism is unclear. Here, we provide evidence of the role of the NLRP3 inflammasome in sensing the activity of bacterial toxins and virulence factors that activate host Rho GTPases. We demonstrate that this activation relies on the monitoring of the toxin's activity on the Rho GTPase Rac2. We also show that the NLRP3 inflammasome is activated by a signalling cascade that involves the p21-activated kinases 1 and 2 (Pak1/2) and the Pak1-mediated phosphorylation of Thr 659 of NLRP3, which is necessary for the NLRP3-Nek7 interaction, inflammasome activation and IL-1β cytokine maturation. Furthermore, inhibition of the Pak-NLRP3 axis decreases the bacterial clearance of CNF1-expressing UTI89 E. coli during bacteraemia in mice. Taken together, our results establish that Pak1 and Pak2 are critical regulators of the NLRP3 inflammasome and reveal the role of the Pak-NLRP3 signalling axis in vivo during bacteraemia in mice.

Abstract
Background Pollution - unwanted waste released to air, water, and land by human activity - is the largest environmental cause of disease in the world today. It is responsible for an estimated nine million premature deaths per year, enormous economic losses, erosion of human capital, and degradation of ecosystems. Ocean pollution is an important, but insufficiently recognized and inadequately controlled component of global pollution. It poses serious threats to human health and well-being. The nature and magnitude of these impacts are only beginning to be understood. Goals (1) Broadly examine the known and potential impacts of ocean pollution on human health. (2) Inform policy makers, government leaders, international organizations, civil society, and the global public of these threats. (3) Propose priorities for interventions to control and prevent pollution of the seas and safeguard human health. Methods Topic-focused reviews that examine the effects of ocean pollution on human health, identify gaps in knowledge, project future trends, and offer evidence-based guidance for effective intervention. Environmental Findings Pollution of the oceans is widespread, worsening, and in most countries poorly controlled. It is a complex mixture of toxic metals, plastics, manufactured chemicals, petroleum, urban and industrial wastes, pesticides, fertilizers, pharmaceutical chemicals, agricultural runoff, and sewage. More than 80% arises from land-based sources. It reaches the oceans through rivers, runoff, atmospheric deposition and direct discharges. It is often heaviest near the coasts and most highly concentrated along the coasts of low- and middle-income countries. Plastic is a rapidly increasing and highly visible component of ocean pollution, and an estimated 10 million metric tons of plastic waste enter the seas each year. Mercury is the metal pollutant of greatest concern in the oceans; it is released from two main sources - coal combustion and small-scale gold mining. Global spread of industrialized agriculture with increasing use of chemical fertilizer leads to extension of Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) to previously unaffected regions. Chemical pollutants are ubiquitous and contaminate seas and marine organisms from the high Arctic to the abyssal depths. Ecosystem Findings Ocean pollution has multiple negative impacts on marine ecosystems, and these impacts are exacerbated by global climate change. Petroleum-based pollutants reduce photosynthesis in marine microorganisms that generate oxygen. Increasing absorption of carbon dioxide into the seas causes ocean acidification, which destroys coral reefs, impairs shellfish development, dissolves calcium-containing microorganisms at the base of the marine food web, and increases the toxicity of some pollutants. Plastic pollution threatens marine mammals, fish, and seabirds and accumulates in large mid-ocean gyres. It breaks down into microplastic and nanoplastic particles containing multiple manufactured chemicals that can enter the tissues of marine organisms, including species consumed by humans. Industrial releases, runoff, and sewage increase frequency and severity of HABs, bacterial pollution, and anti-microbial resistance. Pollution and sea surface warming are triggering poleward migration of dangerous pathogens such as the Vibrio species. Industrial discharges, pharmaceutical wastes, pesticides, and sewage contribute to global declines in fish stocks. Human Health Findings Methylmercury and PCBs are the ocean pollutants whose human health effects are best understood. Exposures of infants in utero to these pollutants through maternal consumption of contaminated seafood can damage developing brains, reduce IQ and increase children's risks for autism, ADHD and learning disorders. Adult exposures to methylmercury increase risks for cardiovascular disease and dementia. Manufactured chemicals - phthalates, bisphenol A, flame retardants, and perfluorinated chemicals, many of them released into the seas from plastic waste - can disrupt endocrine signaling, reduce male fertility, damage the nervous system, and increase risk of cancer. HABs produce potent toxins that accumulate in fish and shellfish. When ingested, these toxins can cause severe neurological impairment and rapid death. HAB toxins can also become airborne and cause respiratory disease. Pathogenic marine bacteria cause gastrointestinal diseases and deep wound infections. With climate change and increasing pollution, risk is high that Vibrio infections, including cholera, will increase in frequency and extend to new areas. All of the health impacts of ocean pollution fall disproportionately on vulnerable populations in the Global South - environmental injustice on a planetary scale. Conclusions Ocean pollution is a global problem. It arises from multiple sources and crosses national boundaries. It is the consequence of reckless, shortsighted, and unsustainable exploitation of the earth's resources. It endangers marine ecosystems. It impedes the production of atmospheric oxygen. Its threats to human health are great and growing, but still incompletely understood. Its economic costs are only beginning to be counted.Ocean pollution can be prevented. Like all forms of pollution, ocean pollution can be controlled by deploying data-driven strategies based on law, policy, technology, and enforcement that target priority pollution sources. Many countries have used these tools to control air and water pollution and are now applying them to ocean pollution. Successes achieved to date demonstrate that broader control is feasible. Heavily polluted harbors have been cleaned, estuaries rejuvenated, and coral reefs restored.Prevention of ocean pollution creates many benefits. It boosts economies, increases tourism, helps restore fisheries, and improves human health and well-being. It advances the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). These benefits will last for centuries. Recommendations World leaders who recognize the gravity of ocean pollution, acknowledge its growing dangers, engage civil society and the global public, and take bold, evidence-based action to stop pollution at source will be critical to preventing ocean pollution and safeguarding human health.Prevention of pollution from land-based sources is key. Eliminating coal combustion and banning all uses of mercury will reduce mercury pollution. Bans on single-use plastic and better management of plastic waste reduce plastic pollution. Bans on persistent organic pollutants (POPs) have reduced pollution by PCBs and DDT. Control of industrial discharges, treatment of sewage, and reduced applications of fertilizers have mitigated coastal pollution and are reducing frequency of HABs. National, regional and international marine pollution control programs that are adequately funded and backed by strong enforcement have been shown to be effective. Robust monitoring is essential to track progress.Further interventions that hold great promise include wide-scale transition to renewable fuels; transition to a circular economy that creates little waste and focuses on equity rather than on endless growth; embracing the principles of green chemistry; and building scientific capacity in all countries.Designation of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) will safeguard critical ecosystems, protect vulnerable fish stocks, and enhance human health and well-being. Creation of MPAs is an important manifestation of national and international commitment to protecting the health of the seas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent sequencing projects on early-diverging metazoans such as cnidarians, have unveiled a rich innate immunity gene repertoire; however, little is known about immunity gene regulation in the host's early response against marine bacterial pathogens over time. Here, we used RNA-seq on the sea anemone Exaiptasia pallida (Ep) strain CC7 as a model to depict the innate immune response during the onset of infection with the marine pathogenic bacteria Vibrio parahaemolyticus (Vp) clinical strain O3:K6, and lipopolysaccharides (LPS) exposure. Pairwise and time series analyses identified the genes responsive to infection as well as the kinetics of innate immune genes over time. Comparisons between the responses to live Vp and purified LPS was then performed. RESULTS Gene expression and functional analyses detected hundreds to thousands of genes responsive to the Vp infection after 1, 3, 6 and 12 h, including a few shared with the response to LPS. Our results bring to light the first indications that non-canonical cytoplasmic pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) such as NOD-like and RIG-I-like receptor homologs take part in the immune response of Ep. Over-expression of several members of the lectin-complement pathways in parallel with novel transmembrane and Ig containing ficolins (CniFLs) suggest an active defense against the pathogen. Although lacking typical Toll-like receptors (TLRs), Ep activates a TLR-like pathway including the up-regulation of MyD88, TRAF6, NF-κB and AP-1 genes, which are not induced under LPS treatment and therefore suggest an alternative ligand-to-PRR trigger. Two cytokine-dependent pathways involving Tumor necrosis factor receptors (TNFRs) and several other potential downstream signaling genes likely lead to inflammation and/or apoptosis. Finally, both the extrinsic and intrinsic apoptotic pathways were strongly supported by over-expression of effector and executioner genes. CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this pioneering study is first to follow the kinetics of the innate immune response in a cnidarian during the onset of infection with a bacterial pathogen. Overall, our findings reveal the involvement of both novel immune gene candidates such as NLRs, RLRs and CniFLs, and previously identified TLR-like and apoptotic pathways in anthozoan innate immunity with a large amount of transcript-level evidence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Chemotherapy drugs that act via Toll-like receptors (TLRs) can exacerbate mucosal injury through the production of cytokines. Intestinal mucositis can activate TLR2 and TLR4, resulting in the activation of NF-κB. Intestinal mucositis characterized by intense inflammation is the main side effect associated with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) treatment. Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745 (S.b) is a probiotic yeast used in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. The main objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of S.b treatment on the Toll-like/MyD88/NF-κB/MAPK pathway activated during intestinal mucositis and in Caco-2 cells treated with 5-FU. METHODS The mice were divided into three groups: saline (control), saline + 5-FU, and 5-FU + S.b (1.6 × 1010 colony forming units/kg). After 3 days of S.b administration by gavage, the mice were euthanized and the jejunum and ileum were removed. In vitro, Caco2 cells were treated with 5-FU (1 mM) alone or in the presence of lipopolysaccharide (1 ng/ml). When indicated, cells were exposed to S.b. The jejunum/ileum samples and Caco2 cells were examined for the expression or concentration of the inflammatory components. RESULTS Treatment with S.b modulated the expressions of TLR2, TLR4, MyD88, NF-κB, ERK1/2, phospho-p38, phospho-JNK, TNF-α, IL-1β, and CXCL-1 in the jejunum/ileum and Caco2 cells following treatment with 5-FU. CONCLUSION Toll-like/MyD88/NF-κB/MAPK pathway are activated during intestinal mucositis and their modulation by S.b suggests a novel and valuable therapeutic strategy for intestinal inflammation.

Abstract
The yeast Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745 is one of the probiotics recommended for the prevention of antibiotic-associated diarrhea. Studies conducted in vivo and in vitro demonstrated that in the case of infectious diseases there are two potential sites of action of Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745: (1) An action on enteropathogenic microorganisms (adhesion of bacteria and their elimination or an effect on their virulence factors: Toxins, lipopolysaccharide, etc.); and (2) a direct action on the intestinal mucosa (trophic effects, effects on epithelial reconstitution, anti-secretory effects, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulators). Oral administration of Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745 to healthy subjects does not alter their microbiota. However, in the case of diseases associated with the use of antibiotics or chronic diarrhea, Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745 can restore the intestinal microbiota faster. The interaction of Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745 with the innate immune system have been recently demonstrated thus opening up a new therapeutic potential of this yeast in the case of diseases associated with intestinal infections but also other pathologies associated with dysbiosis such as inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Intestinal mononuclear phagocytes (MPs) comprise dendritic cells (DCs) and macrophages (Mφs) that play different roles in response to Salmonella infection. After phagocytosis, DCs expressing CD103 transport Salmonella from the intestinal tract to the mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) and induce adaptive immune responses whereas resident Mφs expressing CX3CR1 capture bacteria in the lumen and reside in the lamina propria (LP) where they induce a local immune response. CX3CR1+ Mφs are generated from Ly6Chi monocytes that enter the colonic mucosa and differentiate locally. We previously demonstrated that the probiotic yeast Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745 (S.b) prevents infection by Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (ST), decreases ST translocation to the peripheral organs and modifies the pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokine profiles in the gut. In the present study, we investigated the effect of S.b on the migratory CD103+ DCs and the resident CX3CR1+ Mφs. MPs were isolated from the LP of streptomycin-treated mice infected by ST with or without S.b treatment before or during the infection. In S.b-pretreated mice, we observed a decrease of the CD103+ DCs in the LP that was associated with the drop of ST recovery from MLN. Interestingly, S.b induced an infiltration of LP by classical Ly6Chi monocytes, and S.b modified the monocyte-Mφ maturation process in ST-infected mice. Our results showed that S.b treatment induced the expansion of Ly6Chi monocytes in the blood as well as in the bone marrow (BM) of mice, thus contributing to the Mφ replenishment in LP from blood monocytes. In vitro experiments conducted on BM cells confirmed that S.b induced the expansion of CX3CR1+ Mφs and concomitantly ST phagocytosis. Altogether, these data demonstrate that Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745 modulates the innate immune response. Although here, we cannot explicitly delineate direct effects on ST from innate immunity, S. b-amplified innate immunity correlated with partial protection from ST infection. This study shows that S.b can induce the expansion of classical monocytes that are precursors of resident Mφs in the LP.

Abstract
The probiotic yeast Saccharomyces boulardii (S. boulardii) has been prescribed for the prophylaxis and treatment of several infectious diarrheal diseases. Gastrointestinal anthrax causes fatal systemic disease. In the present study, we investigated the protective effects conferred by Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745 strain on polarized T84 columnar epithelial cells intoxicated by the lethal toxin (LT) of Bacillus anthracis. Exposure of polarized T84 cells to LT affected cell monolayer integrity, modified the morphology of tight junctions and induced the formation of actin stress fibers. Overnight treatment of cells with S. boulardii before incubation with LT maintained the integrity of the monolayers, prevented morphological modification of tight junctions, restricted the effects of LT on actin remodeling and delayed LT-induced MEK-2 cleavage. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that in the presence of S. boulardii, the medium is depleted of both LF and PA sub-units of LT and the appearance of a cleaved form of PA. Our study highlights the potential of the S. boulardii CNCM I-745 strain as a prophylactic agent against the gastrointestinal form of anthrax.

Abstract
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (ST) is an enteropathogenic Gram-negative bacterium that causes infection following oral ingestion. ST spreads rapidly along the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and invades the intestinal epithelium to ultimately reach internal body organs. The probiotic yeast Saccharomyces boulardii BIOCODEX (S.b-B) is prescribed for prophylaxis of diarrheal infectious diseases. We previously showed that S.b-B prevents weight loss in ST-infected mice and significantly decreases bacterial translocation to the spleen and liver. This study was designed to investigate the effect of S.b-B on ST migration along the GIT and the impact of the yeast on the host's early innate immune responses. Bioluminescent imaging (BLI) was used to evaluate the effect of S.b-B on the progression of luminescent Salmonella Typhimurium (ST-lux) in the GIT of mice pretreated with streptomycin. Photonic emission (PE) was measured in GIT extracts (stomach, small intestine, cecum and colon) at various time periods post-infection (PI). PE analysis revealed that, 45 min PI, ST-lux had migrated slightly faster in the mice treated with S.b-B than in the untreated infected animals. At 90 min PI, ST-lux had reached the cecum in both groups of mice. Adhesion of ST to S.b-B was visualized in the intestines of the mice and probably accounts for (1) the faster elimination of ST-lux in the feces, and (2) reduced translocation of ST to the spleen and liver. In the early phase of infection, S.b-B also modifies the host's immune responses by (1) increasing IFN-γ gene expression and decreasing IL-10 gene expression in the small intestine, and (2) elevating both IFN-γ, and IL-10 mRNA levels in the cecum. BLI revealed that S.b-B modifies ST migration and the host immune response along the GIT. Study findings shed new light on the protective mechanisms of S.b-B during the early phase of Salmonella pathogenesis.

Abstract
Intestinal epithelial cell damage is frequently seen in the mucosal lesions of infectious or inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease. Complete remission of these diseases requires both the disappearance of inflammation and the repair of damaged epithelium. Saccharomyces boulardii (Sb, Biocodex) is a non-pathogenic yeast widely used as a preventive and therapeutic probiotic for the prevention and treatment of diarrhea and other gastrointestinal disorders. We recently showed that it enhances the repair of intestinal epithelium through activation of α2β1 integrin collagen receptors. In the present study, we demonstrated that α2β1 integrin is not the sole cell-extracellular matrix receptor involved during Sb-mediated intestinal restitution. Indeed, by using cell adhesion assays, we showed that Sb supernatant contains heat sensitive molecule(s), with a molecular weight higher than 9 kDa, which decreased αvβ5 integrin-mediated adhesion to vitronectin by competing with the integrin. Moreover, Sb-mediated changes in cell adhesion to vitronectin resulted in a reduction of the αvβ5signaling pathway. We used a monolayer wounding assay that mimics in vivo cell restitution to demonstrate that down-modulation of the αvβ5 integrin-vitronectin interaction is related to Sb-induced cell migration. We therefore postulated that Sb supernatant contains motogenic factors that enhance cell restitution through multiple pathways, including the dynamic fine regulation of αvβ5 integrin binding activity. This could be of major importance in diseases characterized by severe mucosal injury, such as inflammatory and infectious bowel diseases.

Abstract
Background Motility is an important component of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (ST) pathogenesis allowing the bacteria to move into appropriate niches, across the mucus layer and invade the intestinal epithelium. In vitro, flagellum-associated motility is closely related to the invasive properties of ST. The probiotic yeast Saccharomyces boulardii BIOCODEX (S.b-B) is widely prescribed for the prophylaxis and treatment of diarrheal diseases caused by bacteria or antibiotics. In case of Salmonella infection, S.b-B has been shown to decrease ST invasion of T84 colon cell line. The present study was designed to investigate the impact of S.b-B on ST motility. Methodology/Principal Findings Experiments were performed on human colonic T84 cells infected by the Salmonella strain 1344 alone or in the presence of S.b-B. The motility of Salmonella was recorded by time-lapse video microscopy. Next, a manual tracking was performed to analyze bacteria dynamics (MTrackJ plugin, NIH image J software). This revealed that the speed of bacterial movement was modified in the presence of S.b-B. The median curvilinear velocity (CLV) of Salmonella incubated alone with T84 decreased from 43.3 µm/sec to 31.2 µm/sec in the presence of S.b-B. Measurement of track linearity (TL) showed similar trends: S.b-B decreased by 15% the number of bacteria with linear tract (LT) and increased by 22% the number of bacteria with rotator tract (RT). Correlation between ST motility and invasion was further established by studying a non-motile flagella-deficient ST strain. Indeed this strain that moved with a CLV of 0.5 µm/sec, presented a majority of RT and a significant decrease in invasion properties. Importantly, we show that S.b-B modified the motility of the pathogenic strain SL1344 and significantly decreased invasion of T84 cells by this strain. Conclusions This study reveals that S.b-B modifies Salmonella's motility and trajectory which may account for the modification of Salmonella's invasion.

Abstract
CPT-11 (irinotecan), the first-line chemotherapy for advanced stage colorectal cancer, remains inactive in about half of patients (primary chemoresistance) and almost all initial responders develop secondary resistance after several courses of treatment (8 months on average). Nude mice bearing HT-29 colon cancer xenografts were treated with CPT-11 and/or an NF-κB inhibitor for two courses. We confirm that NF-κB inhibition potentiated CPT-11 anti-tumoural effect after the first course of treatment. However, tumours grew again at the end of the second course of treatment, generating resistant tumours. We observed an increase in the basal NF-κB activation in resistant tumours and in two resistant sublines, either obtained from resistant HT-29 tumours (HT-29R cells) or generated in vitro (RSN cells). The decrease of NF-κB activation in HT-29R and RSN cells by stable transfections with the super-repressor form of IκBα augmented their sensitivity to CPT-11. Comparing gene expression profiles of HT-29 and HT-29R cells, we identified the S100A10/Annexin A2 complex and calpain 2 as over-expressed potential NF-κB inducers. SiRNA silencing of calpain 2 but not of S100A10 and/or annexin A2, resulted in a decrease in NF-κB activation, an increase in cellular levels of IκBα and a partial restoration of the CPT-11 sensitivity in both HT-29R and RSN cells, suggesting that calpain 2-dependent IκBα degradation mediates CPT-11 secondary resistance. Thus, targeted therapies directed against calpain 2 may represent a novel strategy to enhance the anti-cancer efficacy of CPT-11.

Abstract
Intestinal epithelial cell damage is frequently seen in the mucosal lesions of inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease. Complete remission of these diseases requires both the cessation of inflammation and the migration of enterocytes to repair the damaged epithelium. Lyophilized Saccharomyces boulardii (Sb, Biocodex) is a nonpathogenic yeast widely used as a therapeutic agent for the treatment and prevention of diarrhea and other gastrointestinal disorders. In this study, we determined whether Sb could accelerate enterocyte migration. Cell migration was determined in Sb force-fed C57BL6J mice and in an in vitro wound model. The impact on α2β1 integrin activity was assessed using adhesion assays and the analysis of α2β1 mediated signaling pathways both in vitro and in vivo. We demonstrated that Sb secretes compounds that enhance the migration of enterocytes independently of cell proliferation. This enhanced migration was associated with the ability of Sb to favor cell-extracellular matrix interaction. Indeed, the yeast activates α2β1 integrin collagen receptors. This leads to an increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of cytoplasmic molecules, including focal adhesion kinase and paxillin, involved in the integrin signaling pathway. These changes are associated with the reorganization of focal adhesion structures. In conclusion Sb secretes motogenic factors that enhance cell restitution through the dynamic regulation of α2β1 integrin activity. This could be of major importance in the development of novel therapies targeting diseases characterized by severe mucosal injury, such as inflammatory and infectious bowel diseases.

Abstract
Background Salmonella pathogenesis engages host cells in two-way biochemical interactions: phagocytosis of bacteria by recruitment of cellular small GTP-binding proteins induced by the bacteria, and by triggering a pro-inflammatory response through activation of MAPKs and nuclear translocation of NF-κB. Worldwide interest in the use of functional foods containing probiotic bacteria for health promotion and disease prevention has increased significantly. Saccharomyces boulardii is a non-pathogenic yeast used as a probiotic in infectious diarrhea. Methodology/Principal Findings In this study, we reported that S. boulardii (Sb) protected mice from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (ST)-induced death and prevented bacterial translocation to the liver. At a molecular level, using T84 human colorectal cancer cells, we demonstrate that incubation with Sb before infection totally abolished Salmonella invasion. This correlates with a decrease of activation of Rac1. Sb preserved T84 barrier function and decreased ST-induced IL-8 synthesis. This anti-inflammatory effect was correlated with an inhibitory effect of Sb on ST-induced activation of the MAPKs ERK1/2, p38 and JNK as well as on activation of NF-κB. Electron and confocal microscopy experiments showed an adhesion of bacteria to yeast cells, which could represent one of the mechanisms by which Sb exerts its protective effects. Conclusions Sb shows modulating effects on permeability, inflammation, and signal transduction pathway in T84 cells infected by ST and an in vivo protective effect against ST infection. The present results also demonstrate that Sb modifies invasive properties of Salmonella.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A subset of patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) have an increased number of mast cells (MCs) in the colonic mucosa. Psychological factors are believed to contribute to the course of IBS. AIMS To examine associations between fatigue, depression and MCs of the colonic mucosa in IBS. METHODS Colonic biopsies were taken from 50 Rome II IBS patients, 21 healthy controls and 11 depressed/fatigued patients without IBS. The cellularity of the lamina propria was determined as the number of inflammatory cells per high power field (hpf) through a 400x microscope. The Fatigue Impact Scale (FIS) and the short form Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) evaluated the severity of fatigue and depression. RESULTS IBS patients had a significant increase in the cellularity of the lamina propria compared with controls or with depressed patients (mean (SD) 94.5 (48-110) vs 68 (58-82) and 78 (87-90) cells per hpf, p = 0.005 and p = 0.05, respectively), in particular of MCs (9.3 (5.6-11.7) vs 4.0 (2.7-6.8) and 4.3 (2.8-7.8) cells per hpf, p = 0.001 and p = 0.005, respectively). Both the FIS and BDI scores were significantly higher in IBS or in depressed patients than in controls (p<0.001). In IBS, the FIS score correlated significantly with the cellularity of the lamina propria (r = 0.51, p<0.0001) and MCs (r = 0.64, p<0.0001). In IBS, the BDI score correlated significantly with MCs (r = 0.29, p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Elevated MCs counts are a key feature of the low-grade inflammatory infiltrate in the caecal mucosa of IBS. Fatigue and depression are associated with mucosal cell counts, in particular MCs, suggesting that psychological factors are associated with the low-grade inflammatory infiltrate in IBS.

Abstract
NF-κB interferes with the effect of most anti-cancer drugs through induction of anti-apoptotic genes. Targeting NF-κB is therefore expected to potentiate conventional treatments in adjuvant strategies. Here we used a pharmacological inhibitor of the IKK2 kinase (AS602868) to block NF-κB activation. In human colon cancer cells, inhibition of NF-κB using 10 μM AS602868 induced a 30–50% growth inhibitory effect and strongly enhanced the action of SN-38, the topoisomerase I inhibitor and CPT-11 active metabolite. AS602868 also potentiated the cytotoxic effect of two other antineoplasic drugs: 5-fluorouracil and etoposide. In xenografts experiments, inhibition of NF-κB potentiated the antitumoural effect of CPT-11 in a dose-dependent manner. Eighty-five and 75% decreases in tumour size were observed when mice were treated with, respectively, 20 or 5 mg kg−1 AS602868 associated with 30 mg kg−1 CPT-11 compared to 47% with CPT-11 alone. Ex vivo tumour analyses as well as in vitro studies showed that AS602868 impaired CPT-11-induced NF-κB activation, and enhanced tumour cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. AS602868 also enhanced the apoptotic potential of TNFα on HT-29 cells. This study is the first demonstration that a pharmacological inhibitor of the IKK2 kinase can potentiate the therapeutic efficiency of antineoplasic drugs on solid tumours.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Probiotics are defined as live micro-organisms which confer a health benefit on the host. Although most probiotics are bacteria, one strain of yeast, Saccharomyces boulardii, has been found to be an effective probiotic in double-blind clinical studies. AIMS To compare the main properties that differentiates yeast from bacteria and to review the properties of S. boulardii explaining its potential benefits as a probiotic. METHODS The PubMed and Medline databases were searched using the keywords 'probiotics', 'yeast', 'antibiotic associated diarrhea', 'Saccharomyces boulardii','bacterial diarrhea' and 'inflammatory bowel disease' in various combinations. RESULTS Several clinical studies have been conducted with S. boulardii in the treatment and prevention of various forms of diarrhoea. Promising research perspectives have been opened in terms of maintenance treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases. The mechanism of S. boulardii's action has been partially elucidated. CONCLUSION Saccharomyces boulardii is a strain of yeast which has been extensively studied for its probiotic effects. The clinical activity of S. boulardii is especially relevant to antibiotic-associated diarrhoea and recurrent Clostridium difficile intestinal infections. Experimental studies clearly demonstrate that S. boulardii has specific probiotic properties, and recent data has opened the door for new therapeutic uses of this yeast as an 'immunobiotic'.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Saccharomyces boulardii is a nonpathogenic yeast used for treatment of diarrhea. We used a mice model of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) to analyze the effects of S boulardii on inflammation. METHODS Lymphocyte-transferred SCID mice, displaying IBD, were fed daily with S boulardii. Weight loss and inflammatory status of the colon were monitored. Nuclear factor-kappaB activity was assessed in the colon. The CD4(+) T-cell production of interferon (IFN) gamma was evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and a comprehensive reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis for both colon and mesenteric lymph nodes was performed. Finally, we analyzed cell migration mechanisms in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS S boulardii treatment inhibits IBD. S boulardii induces an accumulation of IFN-gamma-producing T-helper 1 cells within the mesenteric lymph nodes correlated with a diminution of CD4(+) T-cell number and IFN-gamma production by CD4+ T cells within the colon. The influence of S boulardii treatment on cell accumulation in mesenteric lymph nodes was also observed in normal BALB/c mice and involves modifications of lymph node endothelial cell adhesiveness by a yeast secretion product. CONCLUSIONS S boulardii has a unique action on inflammation by a specific alteration of the migratory behavior of T cells, which accumulate in mesenteric lymph nodes. Therefore, S boulardii treatment limits the infiltration of T-helper 1 cells in the inflammed colon and the amplification of inflammation induced by proinflammatory cytokines production. These results suggest that S boulardii administration may have a beneficial effect in the treatment of IBD.

Abstract
Induction of apoptosis and necrosis by enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) has been reported in vivo and in vitro, but features of cell death were not noted in those reports. Since tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) has been implicated in the apoptosis of invasive bacteria, we investigated the role of this cytokine in EHEC-induced apoptosis. We hypothesize that the probiotic yeast strain Saccharomyces boulardii that interferes with EHEC-induced pro-inflammatory pathways delays EHEC-induced apoptosis. By 6 h of infection, flow cytometry analysis of T84 cells demonstrated that 40% of cells were FITC-annexin-V-positive and 40% of cells incorporated both annexin and propidium iodide (PI). Simultaneously, western blot analysis demonstrated that procaspases-8 and -3 were cleaved. Fragmentation of internucleosomal DNA revealed evidence of apoptotic leader formation after 8 and 9 h of infection. Procaspase-9 activation and 3',3-dihexyloxacarbocyanine iodide (DiOC(6)) incorporation were observed at 3 h of infection. In cells preincubated with S. boulardii and infected with EHEC in the presence of yeast, the quantities of procaspases-8, -9 and -3 did not vary, and no DNA fragmentation was observed. The TNF-alpha transcript level and the level of secreted TNF-alpha increased considerably (P<0.001vs control cells) at 6 h of infection in EHEC-alone-infected cells, but were significantly reduced in cells infected in the presence of S. boulardii (P<0.001vs EHEC-alone-infected cells). The presence of anti-TNF-alpha antibody during infection reduced by 30% the level of FITC-annexin V-positive cells. Altogether, these findings demonstrated that: (i) EHEC infection stimulated TNF-alpha synthesis that is implicated in apoptosis of T84 cells; and (ii) S. boulardii induced a decrease in TNF-alpha and related apoptosis in EHEC-infected T84 cells.

Abstract
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) infections are associated with the modification of tight-junction permeability and synthesis of proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-8 (IL-8). In a previous study, it was demonstrated that EHEC-induced IL-8 secretion is due to the involvement of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), AP-1, and NF-kappaB pathways. In this study, we investigated the effect of the yeast Saccharomyces boulardii on EHEC infection in T84 cells. For this purpose, cells were (i) incubated with bacteria and yeast at the same time or (ii) incubated overnight with yeast cells that were maintained during infection or eliminated by several washes before infection. Coincubation is sufficient to maintain the transmonolayer electrical resistance (TER) of EHEC-infected cells, whereas the preincubation of cells with the yeast without elimination of the yeast during infection is necessary to significantly decrease IL-8 secretion. We thus analyzed the mechanisms of S. boulardii action. We showed that S. boulardii has no effect on EHEC growth or on EHEC adhesion. Kinetics studies revealed that EHEC-induced myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation precedes the decrease of TER. ML-7, an MLC kinase inhibitor, abolishes the EHEC-induced MLC phosphorylation and decrease of TER. Studies show that S. boulardii also abolishes EHEC-induced MLC phosphorylation. We demonstrated that the preincubation of cells with S. boulardii without washes before EHEC infection inhibits NF-kappaB DNA binding activity, phosphorylation and degradation of IkappaB-alpha, and activation of the three members of a MAPK group (extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases 1 and 2, p38, and c-jun N-terminal kinase). These findings demonstrate that S. boulardii exerts a preventive effect on EHEC infection by (i) interfering with one of the transduction pathways implicated in the control of tight-junction structure and (ii) decreasing IL-8 proinflammatory secretion via inhibition of the NF-kappaB and MAPK signaling pathways in infected T84 cells.

Abstract
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) infections are associated with hemorrhagic colitis and the hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS). In vivo, elevated plasma levels of the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-8 (IL-8) in EHEC-infected children are correlated with a high risk of developing HUS. As IL-8 gene transcription is regulated by the transcription factors NF-kappaB and AP-1, we analyzed the role of these factors in the regulation of IL-8 production after infection of the epithelial intestinal T84 cell line by EHEC. By 6 h of infection, EHEC had induced significant secretion of IL-8 (35.84 +/- 6.76 ng/ml versus 0.44 +/- 0.04 ng/ml in control cells). EHEC induced AP-1 and NF-kappaB activation by 3 h of infection. Moreover, the three mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) (ERK1/2, p38, and JNK) were phosphorylated in EHEC-infected T84 cells concomitant with induction of AP-1 DNA binding activity, and IkappaB-alpha was phosphorylated and then degraded concomitant with induction of NF-kappaB DNA binding activity. Pretreatment of cells with the highly specific MEK1/2 inhibitor U0126, the p38 inhibitor SB203580, and/or the proteasome inhibitor ALLN led to inhibition of the IL-8 secretion induced in EHEC-infected T84 cells. These findings demonstrate that (i) EHEC can induce in vitro a potent proinflammatory response by secretion of IL-8 and (ii) the secretion of IL-8 is due to the involvement of MAPK, AP-1, and NF-kappaB signaling pathways.

Abstract
Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) infection of T84 cells induces a decrease in transepithelial resistance, the formation of attaching and effacing (A/E) lesions, and cytokine production. The purpose of this study was to investigate the ability of EPEC to activate mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases in T84 cells and to correlate these signaling pathways with EPEC-induced cell responses. T84 cells were infected with either the wild-type (WT) EPEC strain E2348/69 or two mutants, intimin deletion strain CVD206 (deltaeaeA) and type III secretion apparatus mutant strain CVD452 (deltaescN::aphA). Infection of T84 cells with WT but not mutant EPEC strains induced tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins in T84 cells, including the p46 and p52 Shc isoforms. Kinetics studies revealed that ERK1/2, p38, and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) MAP kinases were activated in cells infected with strain E2348/69 but not with the mutant strains. Inhibition of MAP kinases with PD98059 or SB203580 did not affect the EPEC-induced decrease in transepithelial resistance or actin accumulation beneath the WT bacteria, but these two inhibitors significantly decreased interleukin-8 (IL-8) synthesis. We demonstrate that EPEC induces activation of ERK1/2, p38, and JNK cascades, which all depend on bacterial adhesion and expression of the bacterial type III secretion system. ERK1/2 and p38 MAP kinases were equally implicated in IL-8 expression but did not participate in A/E lesion formation or transepithelial resistance modification, indicating that the signaling pathways involved in these events are distinct.

Abstract
Use of the nonpathogenic yeast Saccharomyces boulardii in the treatment of infectious diarrhea has attracted growing interest. The present study designed to investigate the effect of this yeast on enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC)-associated disease demonstrates that S. boulardii abrogated the alterations induced by an EPEC strain on transepithelial resistance, [(3)H]inulin flux, and ZO-1 distribution in T84 cells. Moreover, EPEC-mediated apoptosis of epithelial cells was delayed in the presence of S. boulardii. The yeast did not modify the number of adherent bacteria but lowered by 50% the number of intracellular bacteria. Infection by EPEC induced tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins in T84 cells, including p46 and p52 SHC isoforms, that was attenuated in the presence of S. boulardii. Similarly, EPEC-induced activation of the ERK1/2 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway was diminished in the presence of the yeast. Interestingly, inhibition of the ERK1/2 pathway with the specific inhibitor PD 98059 decreased EPEC internalization, suggesting that modulation of the ERK1/2 MAP pathway might account for the lowering of the number of intracellular bacteria observed in the presence of S. boulardii. Altogether, this study demonstrated that S. boulardii exerts a protective effect on epithelial cells after EPEC adhesion by modulating the signaling pathway induced by bacterial infection.

Abstract
Several reports have confirmed that the cooperative interaction between cAMP- and Ca2+-mediated transduction pathways may contribute to the stimulatory or inhibitory regulation of Cl- secretion in intestinal epithelium. Saccharomyces boulardii has been shown to inhibit cholera toxin-induced secretion in rat jejunum. We have identified a 120-kDa protein in medium conditioned by Saccharomyces boulardii that reduces cholera toxin-induced cAMP in intestinal cells. The present study evaluated the effect of medium conditioned by Saccharomyces boulardii on cAMP- and Ca2+-mediated Cl- secretion in T84 cells. Experiments performed with cAMP agonists revealed that 1 hr of preincubation of cells with medium conditioned by Saccharomyces boulardii was necessary to elicit a 40-50% reduction in receptor (cholera toxin, prostaglandin E2, and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide) and nonreceptor (forskolin) mediated cAMP synthesis and 125I efflux. Secretion induced by carbachol was inhibited when cells were pretreated for 1 hr with medium conditioned by Saccharomyces boulardii despite the absence of inhibition of Ins (1,4,5)P3. From this study we conclude that Saccharomyces boulardii exerts an inhibitory effect in vitro on Cl- secretion mediated through both cAMP- and Ca2+-mediated signaling pathways.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS The yeast Saccharomyces boulardii inhibits the secretion induced by cholera toxin (CT) in rat jejunum. The present study was aimed at unraveling the mechanism by which S. boulardii protects intestinal cells against CT. METHODS CT-induced adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) levels were measured by radioimmunoassay in intestinal epithelial cells IEC-6 or HT29-D4 cells exposed to whole yeast or to culture medium conditioned by S. boulardii (Sb-conditioned medium). RESULTS Sb-conditioned medium significantly reduced CT-induced cAMP levels in IEC-6 cells. This effect was eliminated by heat treatment, trypsin hydrolysis, and trichloroacetic acid precipitation of Sb-conditioned medium. When conditioned medium was fractionated on polyacrylamide gel under nondenaturing conditions, neutralizing activity was shown to be associated with a 120-kilodalton protein. The neutralizing activity was not attributable to proteolytic activity against CT. Sb-conditioned medium reduced the amount of cAMP induced by CT as well as Escherichia coli thermolabile toxin or forskolin in HT29-D4 cells. The modulation of secretagogue-induced cAMP by Sb-conditioned medium did not occur in the presence of pertussis toxin. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that the neutralization of CT by S. boulardii is mediated by a specific yeast protein and involves a receptor that is negatively coupled to adenylate cyclase.

Abstract
The effects of selenium were investigated on three human colon cancer cell lines: Caco 2, HRT 18, and HT 29. At low concentrations (10-100 nM), selenium stimulated cell growth in serum-free medium. Thus, selenium is an essential trace element for cell proliferation. At higher concentrations, selenium inhibited cell growth. The rate of 75Se uptake was the same in all of the cell lines studied, but the quantity incorporated differed. GSH-Px activity was dependent on the selenium content of the medium. DNA and protein synthesis paralleled the growth curve. Comparison with the curve of viability revealed that selenium inhibited cell growth in two ways: by inhibiting DNA synthesis, without affecting cell viability, and, at higher doses, by cytotoxicity.

Abstract
Cholera toxin acts in vivo by activating intestinal adenylate cyclase. This study was designed to determine (1) whether normal rat epithelial intestinal cell lines (IRD 98 and IEC 17) respond to cholera toxin (CT) by an increased concentration of cyclic AMP and (2) whether the yeast Saccharomyces boulardii, which reduced CT-induced secretion of water and electrolytes using the isolated jejunal loop technique, has an effect on these models. The cAMP concentration evaluated in cells exposed to Saccharomyces boulardii and to cholera toxin (1 microgram/ml for 90 min) was compared to the concentration of cAMP obtained in control cells without yeast. Prior exposure of IRD 98 and IEC 17 cells to Saccharomyces boulardii, reduced CT-induced cAMP by 50 p. 100. This effect disappeared after destruction of the yeast by heating. Results show that the IRD 98 and IEC 17 cells are good models for in vitro investigation of the effects of cholera toxin. Our results suggests that Saccharomyces boulardii prevents the water and electrolyte secretion induced by cholera toxin.

Abstract
Conditioned serum-free medium of Ob17 cells transformed by the middle-T-only gene of polyoma virus (Ob17MT cells) is able to support growth and adipose conversion of the parental Ob17 cells. Conditioned media from 3T3-F442A cells (untransformed preadipocyte clonal line) and MTT4 cells (middle-T-transformed non-preadipocyte clonal line) are inactive. The serum-free conditioned medium of Ob17MT cells is also active on growth and adipose conversion of 3T3-F442A cells. The morphological differentiation of Ob17 cells is accompanied by the expression of early (lipoprotein lipase, LPL) and late (glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, GPDH) biochemical markers of adipose conversion. Bio-Gel P-60 chromatography and SDS-PAGE have allowed characterization of a mitogenic fraction of apparent MW approximately equal to 28 Kd distinct from an adipogenic fraction of apparent MW less than 10 Kd. This adipogenic fraction is only required for the acquisition of the GPDH activity and is therefore active on terminal differentiation.

Abstract
Cell lines were derived from ob17 preadipocyte cells by focus formation after transfer of the complete early region of polyoma virus (ob17PY) or of a modified genome encoding only the middle T protein (ob17MT). Both ob17PY and ob17MT cell lines exhibited a high cloning efficiency in agarose medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum. Fully transformed ob17PY cells grew to high saturation densities and did not differentiate in vitro and in vivo. ob17MT cells and derived subclones did not grow in the absence of serum and were able to differentiate in vitro and to give rise in vivo to adipose tumors. Among these different clones an inverse relationship was observed in culture between their potentiality to overproliferate at low serum and their potentiality to convert into adipose cells. The expression of enzyme markers of adipose conversion was strictly dependent upon the presence of growth hormone. In addition, the hormonal requirements for differentiation were simpler than those of the original ob17 cells and the adipose conversion could take place in serum-free hormone-supplemented medium.

Abstract
A clonal cell line has been established from the epididymal fat pad of the C57 BL/6J +/? mouse. This line, designated HGFu, is aneuploid and exhibits both morphological and biochemical properties characteristic of mature adipocytes. Adipose conversion begins after confluence and is accompanied by (a) an early emergence of lipoprotein lipase, (b) an increase in the incorporation of [14C]acetate into lipids and in the activities of acid:CoA ligase and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, (c) a 27- to 35-fold increase in the average triglyceride content per cell. In the presence of a beta-agonist (isoproterenol) a full lipolytic response (measured by fatty acid release) is observed with differentiated cells, whereas the responsiveness examined by cyclic AMP (cAMP) production is present both in undifferentiated and differentiated cells. Adipose conversion, estimated by activities of enzyme markers, is accelerated by the continuous presence in the culture medium of insulin and triiodothyronine both within their physiological range of concentrations, whereas insulin at supraphysiological concentrations shows a growth promoting activity. The concentrations of insulin and triiodothyronine required for half-maximal lipogenic effects are in agreement with the Kd values of their respective high affinity binding sites present in HGFu cells. The HGFu cell line seems to be a useful model for the study on a long term basis of the mechanisms of action both of insulin and triiodothyronine. Moreover it will make it possible to realize comparative studies between clonal lines established from the lean adult mouse (HGFu line) and from the genetically obese adult mouse (Ob17 line).

Abstract
A human clonal cell line, designated TAH9, has been established from cells of adipose tissue by fusion with E. coli protoplasts containing a recombinant plasmid carrying the early genes of Simian virus 40. The establishment of the cell line is preceeded by a delayed growth crisis. The results indicate that, after cell transformation, another event(s) of low frequency is required for cell immortalization. Some biological properties of TAH9 cells are also described.
