We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

Cheng2,7, Aviv Regev2,3 & Kevin Struhl 1 Transient activation of Src oncoprotein in non-transformed, breast epithelial cells can initiate an epigenetic switch to the stably transformed state via a positive feedback loop that involves 1234567890():,; the inflammatory transcription factors STAT3 and NF-κB. Here, we develop an experimental and computational pipeline that includes 1) a Bayesian network model (AccessTF) that accurately predicts protein-bound DNA sequence motifs based on chromatin accessibility, and 2) a scoring system (TFScore) that rank-orders transcription factors as candidates for being important for a biological process. Genetic experiments validate TFScore and suggest that more than 40 transcription factors contribute to the oncogenic state in this model. Interestingly, individual depletion of several of these factors results in similar transcriptional profiles, indicating that a complex and interconnected transcriptional network promotes a stable oncogenic state. The combined experimental and computational pipeline represents a general approach to comprehensively identify transcriptional regulators important for a biological process. 1 Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA. 2 Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Cambridge, MA 02142, USA. 3 Department of Biology, Howard Hughes Medical Institute and David H.

Forkhead Box Class K (FOXK) proteins, FOXK1 and FOXK2, FOXK2 are a family of evolutionarily conserved transcriptional factors, which have recently been recognized as key ncRNAs transcriptional regulators involved in many types of cancer. Members of the FOXK family mediate a wide Biomarker spectrum of biological processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, autophagy, cell cycle Therapeutic target progression, DNA damage and tumorigenesis. Therefore, the deregulation of FOXKs can affect the cell fate and they promote tumorigenesis as well as cancer progression. The mechanisms of FOXKs regulation including post- translational modifications (PTMs), microRNAs (miRNAs) and protein–protein interactions are well demon- strated. However, the detailed mechanisms of FOXKs activation and deregulation in cancer progression are still inconclusive. In this review, we summarize the regulatory mechanisms of FOXKs expression and activity, and their role in the development and progression of cancer.

  • Using Liver Mirna Profiles to Predict Chemical Hepatocarcinogenesis”
    “Using liver miRNA profiles to predict chemical hepatocarcinogenesis” By Costas Koufaris A thesis submitted to Imperial College London for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Surgery and Cancer Biomolecular Medicine Imperial College London April- 12011 - ABSTRACT Industrial, agricultural, and pharmaceutical requirements drive the development of a plethora of new chemical entities each year, many of which -for example drugs, pesticides, and food additives- have to be assessed for potential human health hazard. The current benchmark for risk assessement is the lifetime rodent bioassay which is expensive, time-consuming, laborious, requires the sacrifice of numerous animals, and is often irrelevant to humans. Hence alternative strategies to the rodent lifetime bioassay for prediction of chemical carcinogens are being pursued, especially for the liver which is an organ frequently affected by exogenous chemicals due to its detoxifying and metabolic roles. Numerous studies in recent years support the important role of microRNAs in cancer development, including hepatocellular carcinoma. The principal hypothesis of this project was that hepatic microRNA signatures can contribute to the earlier prediction of chemical hepatocarcinogens. Examination of livers from male Fischer rats treated with six chemical hepatocarcinogens, with diverse mode of actions for 90 days revealed that all the tested hepatocarcinogens affected the liver miRNAome from that early stage. Interestingly, a small set of microRNAs were identified whose expression

  • Foxk1 and Foxk2 in Insulin Regulation of Cellular and Mitochondrial Metabolism
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-09418-0 OPEN FoxK1 and FoxK2 in insulin regulation of cellular and mitochondrial metabolism Masaji Sakaguchi1,2,3, Weikang Cai1,2, Chih-Hao Wang1,2, Carly T. Cederquist1,2, Marcos Damasio1,2, Erica P. Homan1,2, Thiago Batista1,2, Alfred K. Ramirez1,2, Manoj K. Gupta1,2, Martin Steger4, Nicolai J. Wewer Albrechtsen4,5,6, Shailendra Kumar Singh7, Eiichi Araki3, Matthias Mann 4, Sven Enerbäck 8 & C. Ronald Kahn1,2 1234567890():,; A major target of insulin signaling is the FoxO family of Forkhead transcription factors, which translocate from the nucleus to the cytoplasm following insulin-stimulated phosphorylation. Here we show that the Forkhead transcription factors FoxK1 and FoxK2 are also downstream targets of insulin action, but that following insulin stimulation, they translocate from the cytoplasm to nucleus, reciprocal to the translocation of FoxO1. FoxK1/FoxK2 translocation to the nucleus is dependent on the Akt-mTOR pathway, while its localization to the cytoplasm in the basal state is dependent on GSK3. Knockdown of FoxK1 and FoxK2 in liver cells results in upregulation of genes related to apoptosis and down-regulation of genes involved in cell cycle and lipid metabolism. This is associated with decreased cell proliferation and altered mito- chondrial fatty acid metabolism. Thus, FoxK1/K2 are reciprocally regulated to FoxO1 following insulin stimulation and play a critical role in the control of apoptosis, metabolism and mitochondrial function. 1 Sections of Integrative Physiology and Metabolism and Islet Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine, Joslin Diabetes Center, Boston, MA 02215, USA. 2 Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02215, USA.
