Graduate and Postdoc (GaP) Seminar Series

*********************************
There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

"Identification of novel mechanosensitive inflammatory genes in endothelium by combined mouse gene array and functional Drosophila siRNA screening"

 We conducted a large-scale in vivo Drosophila screen to discover novel mechanosensitive, inflammatory genes. From this screening, we identified smarcd3, psmd12 (mouse ortholog of RPN5), and IRE1 as novel regulators of NFκB in inflammatory response. Of these, smarcd3 acts as an anti-inflammatory repressor of NFκB in endothelial cells, which might play an important role in regulating endothelial inflammation in a shear-responsive manner.
