Abstract
Microglia maintain homeostasis in the brain. However, with age, they become primed and respond more strongly to inflammatory stimuli. We show here that microglia from aged mice had upregulated mTOR complex 1 signaling controlling translation, as well as protein levels of inflammatory mediators. Genetic ablation of mTOR signaling showed a dual yet contrasting effect on microglia priming: it caused an NF-κB-dependent upregulation of priming genes at the mRNA level; however, mice displayed reduced cytokine protein levels, diminished microglia activation, and milder sickness behavior. The effect on translation was dependent on reduced phosphorylation of 4EBP1, resulting in decreased binding of eIF4E to eIF4G. Similar changes were present in aged human microglia and in damage-associated microglia, indicating that upregulation of mTOR-dependent translation is an essential aspect of microglia priming in aging and neurodegeneration.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is resistant to most therapies including single-agent immunotherapy and has a dense desmoplastic stroma, and most patients present with advanced metastatic disease. We reveal that macrophages are the dominant leukocyte population both in human PDAC stroma and autochthonous models, with an important functional contribution to the squamous subtype of human PDAC. We targeted macrophages in a genetic PDAC model using AZD7507, a potent selective inhibitor of CSF1R. AZD7507 caused shrinkage of established tumors and increased mouse survival in this difficult-to-treat model. Malignant cell proliferation diminished, with increased cell death and an enhanced T cell immune response. Loss of macrophages rewired other features of the TME, with global changes in gene expression akin to switching PDAC subtypes. These changes were markedly different to those elicited when neutrophils were targeted via CXCR2. These results suggest targeting the myeloid cell axis may be particularly efficacious in PDAC, especially with CSF1R inhibitors.

Abstract
11071 Background: Monocytes are intrinsic members of the innate immune system and play an important role in immunity and inflammation. Human monocytes are subdivided into three populations depending on cell surface CD14 and CD16 expression: Classical (CD14++ CD16-), intermediate (CD14+CD16- ) and non-classical (CD14- CD16++). These populations have diverse functions and have been postulated to play both anti and pro-inflammatory roles in a variety of diseases including atherosclerosis, sarcoidosis and other rheumatological conditions. However, the prevalent monocyte populations in cancer have not as yet been identified. We aim to define the prevalent monocyte populations in non-small cell lung cancer as well as further characterising them using flow cytometry and Affymetrix technology. Methods: Blood was obtained from 24 newly diagnosed patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer and 12 age matched healthy donors. Monocyte subpopulations were sorted using flow cytometry. Gene expression profiling was performed using Affymetrix Human U133 Plus 2.0 array. Results: The classical (CD14++CD16-) monocyte population is significantly increased in non-small cell lung cancer patients when compared to healthy donors (p<0.01). The intermediate (CD14+CD16+) and non-classical (CD14- CD16++) populations are unchanged. Analysis of the gene expression profile of the classical monocyte subset identified 265 up-regulated and 261 down-regulated genes in cancer patients compared to healthy donors (p<0.05, fold change >2). These genes were assigned to biological processes with gene ontology annotation. Functional annotation reveals a strong association of regulated genes with the G.O term “inflammation” (p=0.009). Among these inflammatory genes are a cluster of chemokines including CXCL2 and CXCR4. Conclusions: By identifying the prevalent monocyte subsets as well as characterising their function in cancer, there is the potential to target detrimental effects and promote their beneficial functions. As such, monocytes subsets may be used as a possible therapeutic target.

Abstract
Background The advent of Systems Biology has been accompanied by the blooming of pathway databases. Currently pathways are defined generically with respect to the organ or cell type where a reaction takes place. The cell type specificity of the reactions is the foundation of immunological research, and capturing this specificity is of paramount importance when using pathway-based analyses to decipher complex immunological datasets. Here, we present DC-ATLAS, a novel and versatile resource for the interpretation of high-throughput data generated perturbing the signaling network of dendritic cells (DCs). Results Pathways are annotated using a novel data model, the Biological Connection Markup Language (BCML), a SBGN-compliant data format developed to store the large amount of information collected. The application of DC-ATLAS to pathway-based analysis of the transcriptional program of DCs stimulated with agonists of the toll-like receptor family allows an integrated description of the flow of information from the cellular sensors to the functional outcome, capturing the temporal series of activation events by grouping sets of reactions that occur at different time points in well-defined functional modules. Conclusions The initiative significantly improves our understanding of DC biology and regulatory networks. Developing a systems biology approach for immune system holds the promise of translating knowledge on the immune system into more successful immunotherapy strategies.

Abstract
High CD30 expression in classical Hodgkin's lymphoma and anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) suggests an important pathogenic role of this cytokine receptor. To test this hypothesis, we investigated CD30 signaling in Hodgkin's and ALCL cell lines by different approaches: 1) CD30 stimulation, 2) CD30 down-regulation, and 3) a combination of both. The effects were determined at the RNA (microarray and real-time quantitative RT-PCR), protein (electrophoretic mobility shift analysis, immunoblot, and flow cytometry), and cellular/functional (proliferation and apoptosis) levels. We demonstrate that Hodgkin's cells are virtually CD30 unresponsive. Neither CD30 stimulation nor CD30 silencing of Hodgkin's cells had any significant effect. In contrast, CD30 stimulation of ALCL cells activated nuclear transcription factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB), induced major transcriptional changes, and decreased proliferation. These effects could be abrogated by down-regulation of CD30. Stimulation of CD30 in ALCL cells, stably transfected with a dominant-negative NF-kappaB inhibitor, induced pronounced caspase activation and massive apoptosis. Our data indicate that 1) CD30 signaling is not effective in Hodgkin's cell lines but is effective in ALCL cell lines, 2) CD30 is probably not significantly involved in the pathogenesis of classical Hodgkin's lymphoma, and 3) CD30 stimulation triggers two competing effects in ALCL cells, namely activation of caspases and NF-kappaB-mediated survival. These data suggest that CD30-targeted therapy in ALCL should be combined with NF-kappaB inhibitors to induce effective cell killing.

Abstract
Microarray studies revealed that as a first hit the SV40 T/t antigen causes deregulation of 462 genes in mammary gland cells (ME cells) of WAP-SVT/t transgenic animals. The majority of deregulated genes are cell proliferation specific and Rb-E2F dependent, causing ME cell proliferation and gland hyperplasia but not breast cancer formation. In the breast tumor cells a further 207 genes are differentially expressed, most of them belonging to the cell communication category. In tissue culture breast tumor cells frequently switch off WAP-SVT/t transgene expression and regain the morphology and growth characteristics of normal ME cells, although the tumor-revertant cells are aneuploid and only 114 genes regain the expression level of normal ME cells. The profile of retransformants shows that only 38 deregulated genes are tumor-specific, and that none of them is considered to be a typical breast cancer gene.

In spite of the great clinical progress, the pathogenesis of this peculiar lymphoproliferative entity has not been elucidated completely up until now. In Section I Drs. Stein, Hummel, and Zollinger describe the different pro-proliferative and antiapoptotic pathways and molecules involved in the transformation of the germinal center B-lymphocyte to the malignant Hodgkin-Reed-Sternberg cell. They use a comprehensive gene expression profiling (Affymetrix gene chip U133A) on B- and T-Hodgkin cell lines and state that the cell of origin is not the dominant determinant of the Hodgkin cell phenotype, but the transforming event. H-RS cells lack specific functional markers (B-T-cell receptors) and physiologically should undergo apoptosis. Why they do not is unclear and a matter of intensive ongoing research. In Section II Dr. Diehl summarizes the commonly used primary treatment strategies adapted to prognostic strata in early, intermediate and advanced anatomical stages using increasing intensities of chemotherapy (two, four, eight courses of chemotherapy such as ABVD) and additive radiation with decreased doses and field size. ABVD is without doubt the gold standard for early and intermediate stages, but its role as the standard regimen for advanced stages is challenged by recent data with time- and dose-intensified regimens such as the escalated BEACOPP, demonstrating superiority over COPP/ABVD (equivalent to ABVD) for FFTF and OS in all risk strata according to the International Prognostic Score. In Section III, Dr. Connors states that fortunately there is a considerably decreased need for salvage strategies in Hodgkin's lymphomas since primary treatment results in a more than 80% tumor control. Nevertheless, a significant number of patients experience either a tumor refractory to therapy or an early or late relapse. Therefore, one of the continuing challenges in the care for Hodgkin's lymphomas today is to find effective modes for a second tumor control. High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell support has proved to be the treatment of choice when disseminated tumors recur after primary chemo- and or radiotherapy. Nodal relapses respond well to local radiation when they recur outfield of primary radiation without B-symptoms and in stages I-II at relapse. Allogeneic stem cell support needs further intensive evaluation in controlled studies to become an established alternative.

Abstract
The author describes the psychotherapy of about 2 1/2 years duration of a 14-year old boy. This psychodynamically oriented psychotherapy dealt with the aftermath of two disasters in his family: The accidental deaths of two older brothers five and four years ago. These events had a lasting effect on the family which negatively interfered with the achievement of developmental tasks in adolescence in the patient. He had erected massive defenses against his own wishes and became withdrawn and depressed. The main issues dealt with in therapy were: (a) The boys fear to step out of his position as the families "child" in consideration of his grieving mother. (b) The boy's difficulty to tolerate and integrate aggressive fantasies and feelings because of his guilt feelings and fear of another loss due to these fantasies and feelings. The working through of conflictual issues in psychotherapy enabled the boy to gain awareness regarding his own needs and wishes, and to find ways to fulfill them. Subsequently, he succeeded in making an adequate professional choice and to go into training for it.

Abstract
After long term therapy with epoetin (recombinant human erythropoietin) 17 patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) were studied in 3 groups to assess pharmacokinetics during the intertreatment interval and during haemofiltration and dialysis treatment. Epoetin was measured by radioimmunoassay. After an intravenous bolus of epoetin 150 U/kg bodyweight, the half-life was 7.7h, steady-state volume of distribution was 0.066 L/kg and total plasma clearance was 5.4 ml/min. The mean steady-state serum concentration during multiple-dose administration was 656 U/L. The drug was not eliminated by haemofiltration or dialysis. Long term treatment of ESRD patients with epoetin does not significantly alter the pharmacokinetic profile of the drug. Epoetin dosage adjustment or substitution after haemofiltration and dialysis is not necessary.

Abstract
Clinical and mammographic data of 1009 consecutive patients were correlated with histopathologic data of 1144 biopsy specimens of nonpalpable breast lesions to better define the presentation and biologic behavior of early breast cancer. Patients with malignant neoplasms (269 [24%] of 1144 specimens) were older (mean age, 62.1 years) than patients with benign lesions (mean age, 54.9 years). Furthermore, patients with invasive disease were older (mean age, 63.3 years) than patients with noninvasive disease (mean age, 58.5 years) with an overall increased risk of invasive cancer per year of 1.035. A 58% incidence of invasive cancer was detected for lesions characterized by calcifications, while the incidence of invasive cancer was 84% for isolated mass lesions (relative risk, 4.31 for masses). Isolated mammographic calcifications associated with cancer appeared in a younger population and were significantly associated with noninvasive ductal cancer. Breast cancer presenting as a mammographic mass appeared in an older group and was highly associated with the presence of invasive disease.

Abstract
We prospectively studied 718 women who underwent biopsy of the breast for suspicious, mammographically detected mammary lesions in an attempt to identify key clinical risk factors, as well as roentgenographic characteristics associated with the appearance of early carcinoma of the breast. Patients with a benign outcome had an average age of 55 years versus 63 years for patients with carcinoma of the breast. Seventy-six per cent of these patients had no previous history of mammary problems, 20 per cent had a positive family history for carcinoma of the breast, 58 per cent were premenopausal and 21 per cent had used birth control pills. Except for age (p less than 0.001), the distribution of clinical risk factors was equal among patients with benign or malignant outcomes. Suspicious mammographic findings included mass lesions (53 per cent), calcifications (36 per cent) and the association of both (11 per cent). The predominant Wolfe pattern on mammography was P1 (36 per cent). No relationship was observed between Wolfe pattern and malignant conditions. In this group of patients, mammography was poorly specific; however, the positive predictive value increased with age and is related to the age-specific prevalence of carcinoma of the breast. Eight hundred and twenty-five lesions were removed. Twenty-five per cent (n = 203) of the specimens taken at biopsy contained carcinoma. Stellate mass lesions were highly suggestive of a malignant growth (p less than 0.0001). No relationship between the size of the suspicious mammographic mass and the malignant lesion was observed. A marked correlation (chi-square test with Yate's correction) was observed between malignant tumor and lesions with a linear or branching pattern, more than 15 calcifications, or small sized calcifications. The presence of a mass with calcifications was associated with carcinoma in 34 per cent. The incidence of invasive carcinoma was much higher for mass lesions (81 per cent) than for suspicious calcifications (56 per cent) (p less than 0.0001).

Abstract
We prospectively studied 239 consecutive patients who underwent breast biopsy for 277 nonpalpable lesions characterized by mammographic microcalcifications. Clinical and mammographic characteristics were correlated with histologic findings in an attempt to identify patients more likely to have early breast cancer. The distribution of clinical risk factors was equal between patients with benign or malignant outcomes. The predominant Wolfe pattern on mammography was P2 (38%); however, no relationship was observed between the Wolfe pattern and malignancy. A marked correlation was observed between malignancy and small lesions, more than 15 calcifications, and calcifications in a linear or branching pattern. Twenty-four percent (n = 67) of the biopsy specimens contained either ductal or lobular breast cancer. This study highlights the necessity of an aggressive approach toward suspicious calcifications found by mammography.

Abstract
Of 48 patients with chromaffin tumors observed at the Institute of Pathology of the University of Zurich between 1971 and 1982, 10 (20.9%) had a typical associated disease: 6 patients (12.5%) had Sipple's syndrome, 2 von Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis, and 2 others von Hippel-Lindau's disease. The origin common to all these disorders involves the neuroectoderm. In the presence of one of these diseases the possibility of an occult chromaffin tumor must be considered. Familial occurrence of chromaffin tumors was observed in 5 patients (10.5%): 3 (of two families) had Sipple's syndrome, while the other 2 (of one family) had neoplasms without associated diseases.

Abstract
Between 1971 and 1982, pheochromocytomas and sympathetic paragangliomas from 48 patients were examined at the Institute of Pathology of the University of Zurich. Thirty-four specimens had been resected surgically while 14 were discovered at autopsy, i.e. in 0.072% of the 19610 autopsies performed during that period. There were 42 cases (87.5%) of pheochromocytoma, of which 14.6% were bilateral, and 6 cases (12.5%) of sympathetic paragangliomas. The average age of our patients was 37.8% years, but the first clinical signs of the sympathetic paragangliomas preceded those of the pheochromocytomas by 20 years. Of all chromaffin tumors, 12.5% were obviously malignant and were metastasizing. In the assessment of biologic behavior it is noted that a histologically malignant tumor need not follow a malignant course and that, conversely, a tumor of benign appearance may develop metastases. Hence, long-term clinical follow-up is indicated as well as careful histologic diagnosis. The second part of this study will deal with associated diseases such as Sipple's disease and various neurocutaneous syndromes, which were present in 20.9% of our cases, and also with familial chromaffin tumors without associated diseases.

Abstract
Kaposi's sarcoma is a multisystem neoplastic disease in which skin manifestations are usually seen first. Visceral involvement is frequent and the gastrointestinal tract is the most common location. We report a patient with Kaposi's sarcoma in whom the typical violaceous skin lesions were the sarcoma in whom the typical violaceous skin lesions were the only overt clinical manifestations, but the patient had multiple macular angiodysplastic-like lesions on colonoscopy. In contrast to the uniform appearance of the colonic lesions, polypoid, volcano, and maculopapular lesions were seen in the stomach on endoscopy. This report provides probably the first endoscopic description of the colonic lesions of Kaposi's sarcoma and contrasts them with the typical upper gastrointestinal lesions. A thorough gastrointestinal survey should be performed in all patients with Kaposi's sarcoma to delineate involvement, since appropriate treatment will be dictated by the presence or absence of visceral involvement.

Abstract
The glycosaminoglycans of the normal human and bovine lungs and of the major structural components of these organs (pleura, 'alveoli', peripheral and central bronchi, arteries and veins) were investigated. To carry out this study, a micromethod for the separation and quantitative determination of these macromolecules, namely two-dimensional electrophoresis on cellulose acetate plates, was employed. This procedure made it possible to measure the content of each glycosaminoglycan present in the mentioned anatomic components. In the human lung the distribution of the glycosaminoglycans varies considerably from one component to another: dermatan sulfate was the predominant mucopolysaccharide of the pleura, chondroitin 6-sulfate that of the central bronchi, and heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate those of the alveoli. Heparin and keratan sulfate were not detected in any of the structural components. Significant changes in the mucopolysaccharide levels were found during maturation and aging. Further age-related changes were noted between 22 and 39 years. In the bovine lung significant changes in the glycosaminoglycan levels were also observed during growth and aging. Heparin appeared in the lung at an age between 1 and 16 months. Similarities and differences in the total contents and compositions of the glycosaminoglycans between the human and bovine lung were noted.
