Prins K, Vasiliver-Shamis G, Cammer M, Depoil D, Dustin M, Hioe C
J Vis Exp . 2012 Mar; (61). PMID: 22433250
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection occurs most efficiently via cell to cell transmission(2,10,11). This cell to cell transfer between CD4(+) T cells involves the formation of a virological...

Hioe C, Tuen M, Vasiliver-Shamis G, Alvarez Y, Prins K, Banerjee S, et al.
PLoS One . 2011 Aug; 6(8):e23202. PMID: 21850260
The cellular adhesion molecule LFA-1 and its ICAM-1 ligand play an important role in promoting HIV-1 infectivity and transmission. These molecules are present on the envelope of HIV-1 virions and...

Maor G, Vasiliver-Shamis G, Hazan-Brill R, Wertheimer E, Karnieli E
Am J Physiol Endocrinol Metab . 2010 Oct; 300(4):E613-23. PMID: 20923959
Skeletal growth, taking place in the cartilaginous growth plates of long bones, consumes high levels of glucose for both metabolic and anabolic purposes. We previously showed that Glut4 is present...

Vasiliver-Shamis G, Dustin M, Hioe C
Viruses . 2010 Oct; 2(5):1239-60. PMID: 20890395
The virological synapse (VS) is a tight adhesive junction between an HIV-infected cell and an uninfected target cell, across which virus can be efficiently transferred from cell to cell in...
5.
Fooksman D, Vardhana S, Vasiliver-Shamis G, Liese J, Blair D, Waite J, et al.
Annu Rev Immunol . 2009 Dec; 28:79-105. PMID: 19968559
T cell activation and function require a structured engagement of antigen-presenting cells. These cell contacts are characterized by two distinct dynamics in vivo: transient contacts resulting from promigratory junctions called...
6.
Beal A, Anikeeva N, Varma R, Cameron T, Vasiliver-Shamis G, Norris P, et al.
Immunity . 2009 Oct; 31(4):632-42. PMID: 19833088
Cytolytic granules mediate killing of virus-infected cells by cytotoxic T lymphocytes. We show here that the granules can take long or short paths to the secretory domain. Both paths utilized...

Vasiliver-Shamis G, Cho M, Hioe C, Dustin M
J Virol . 2009 Aug; 83(21):11341-55. PMID: 19710135
Cell-to-cell transmission of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) occurs via a virological synapse (VS), a tight cell-cell junction formed between HIV-infected cells and target cells in which the HIV-1-infected...

Liu D, Bryceson Y, Meckel T, Vasiliver-Shamis G, Dustin M, Long E
Immunity . 2009 Jul; 31(1):99-109. PMID: 19592272
Cytotoxic lymphocytes kill target cells by releasing the content of secretory lysosomes at the immune synapse. To understand the dynamics and control of cytotoxic immune synapses, we imaged human primary,...

Ilani T, Vasiliver-Shamis G, Vardhana S, Bretscher A, Dustin M
Nat Immunol . 2009 Apr; 10(5):531-9. PMID: 19349987
Immunological synapses are initiated by signaling in discrete T cell antigen receptor microclusters and are important for the differentiation and effector functions of T cells. Synapse formation involves the orchestrated...

Dehan E, Bassermann F, Guardavaccaro D, Vasiliver-Shamis G, Cohen M, Lowes K, et al.
Mol Cell . 2009 Jan; 33(1):109-16. PMID: 19150432
The BimEL tumor suppressor is a potent proapoptotic BH3-only protein. We found that, in response to survival signals, BimEL was rapidly phosphorylated on three serine residues in a conserved degron,...
