Abstract: The ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS) is involved in multiple cellular functions including the regulation of protein homeostasis, major histocompatibility (MHC) class I antigen processing, cell cycle proliferation and signaling. In humans, proteasome loss-of-function mutations result in autoinflammation dominated by a prominent type I interferon (IFN) gene signature. These genomic alterations typically cause the development of proteasome-associated autoinflammatory syndromes (PRAAS) by impairing proteasome activity and perturbing protein homeostasis. However, an abnormal increased proteasomal activity can also be found in other human inflammatory diseases. In this review, we cast a light on the different clinical aspects of proteasomal activity in human disease and summarize the currently studied therapeutic approaches.

  • View of HER2: Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2; TNBC: Triple-Negative Breast Resistance to Systemic Therapy in Patients with Breast Cancer
    Wen et al. Cancer Cell Int (2018) 18:128 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12935-018-0625-9 Cancer Cell International PRIMARY RESEARCH Open Access Sulbactam‑enhanced cytotoxicity of doxorubicin in breast cancer cells Shao‑hsuan Wen1†, Shey‑chiang Su2†, Bo‑huang Liou3, Cheng‑hao Lin1 and Kuan‑rong Lee1* Abstract Background: Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major obstacle in breast cancer treatment. The predominant mecha‑ nism underlying MDR is an increase in the activity of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent drug efux trans‑ porters. Sulbactam, a β-lactamase inhibitor, is generally combined with β-lactam antibiotics for treating bacterial infections. However, sulbactam alone can be used to treat Acinetobacter baumannii infections because it inhibits the expression of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter proteins. This is the frst study to report the efects of sulbactam on mammalian cells. Methods: We used the breast cancer cell lines as a model system to determine whether sulbactam afects cancer cells. The cell viabilities in the present of doxorubicin with or without sulbactam were measured by MTT assay. Protein identities and the changes in protein expression levels in the cells after sulbactam and doxorubicin treatment were determined using LC–MS/MS. Real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (real-time RT-PCR) was used to analyze the change in mRNA expression levels of ABC transporters after treatment of doxorubicin with or without sulbactam. The efux of doxorubicin was measures by the doxorubicin efux assay. Results: MTT assay revealed that sulbactam enhanced the cytotoxicity of doxorubicin in breast cancer cells. The results of proteomics showed that ABC transporter proteins and proteins associated with the process of transcription and initiation of translation were reduced.

  • On the Role of the Immunoproteasome in Transplant Rejection
    Immunogenetics (2019) 71:263–271 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00251-018-1084-0 REVIEW On the role of the immunoproteasome in transplant rejection Michael Basler1,2 & Jun Li1,3 & Marcus Groettrup1,2 Received: 17 July 2018 /Accepted: 4 September 2018 /Published online: 15 September 2018 # Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract The immunoproteasome is expressed in cells of hematopoietic origin and is induced during inflammation by IFN-γ. Targeting the immunoproteasome with selective inhibitors has been shown to be therapeutically effective in pre-clinical models for autoim- mune diseases, colitis-associated cancer formation, and transplantation. Immunoproteasome inhibition prevents activation and proliferation of lymphocytes, lowers MHC class I cell surface expression, reduces the expression of cytokines of activated immune cells, and curtails T helper 1 and 17 cell differentiation. This might explain the in vivo efficacy of immunoproteasome inhibition in different pre-clinical disease models for autoimmunity, cancer, and transplantation.

  • Inhibition of the Nrf2 Transcription Factor by the Alkaloid
    Oncogene (2013) 32, 4825–4835 & 2013 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0950-9232/13 www.nature.com/onc ORIGINAL ARTICLE Inhibition of the Nrf2 transcription factor by the alkaloid trigonelline renders pancreatic cancer cells more susceptible to apoptosis through decreased proteasomal gene expression and proteasome activity A Arlt1,4, S Sebens2,4, S Krebs1, C Geismann1, M Grossmann1, M-L Kruse1, S Schreiber1,3 and H Scha¨fer1 Evidence accumulates that the transcription factor nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) has an essential role in cancer development and chemoresistance, thus pointing to its potential as an anticancer target and undermining its suitability in chemoprevention. Through the induction of cytoprotective and proteasomal genes, Nrf2 confers apoptosis protection in tumor cells, and inhibiting Nrf2 would therefore be an efficient strategy in anticancer therapy. In the present study, pancreatic carcinoma cell lines (Panc1, Colo357 and MiaPaca2) and H6c7 pancreatic duct cells were analyzed for the Nrf2-inhibitory effect of the coffee alkaloid trigonelline (trig), as well as for its impact on Nrf2-dependent proteasome activity and resistance to tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) and anticancer drug-induced apoptosis. Chemoresistant Panc1 and Colo357 cells exhibit high constitutive Nrf2 activity, whereas chemosensitive MiaPaca2 and H6c7 cells display little basal but strong tert-butylhydroquinone (tBHQ)-inducible Nrf2 activity and drug resistance. Trig efficiently decreased basal and tBHQ-induced Nrf2 activity in all cell lines, an effect relying on a reduced nuclear accumulation of the Nrf2 protein. Along with Nrf2 inhibition, trig blocked the Nrf2-dependent expression of proteasomal genes (for example, s5a/psmd4 and a5/psma5) and reduced proteasome activity in all cell lines tested.

  • Analysis of the Stability of 70 Housekeeping Genes During Ips Reprogramming Yulia Panina1,2*, Arno Germond1 & Tomonobu M
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Analysis of the stability of 70 housekeeping genes during iPS reprogramming Yulia Panina1,2*, Arno Germond1 & Tomonobu M. Watanabe1 Studies on induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells highly rely on the investigation of their gene expression which requires normalization by housekeeping genes. Whether the housekeeping genes are stable during the iPS reprogramming, a transition of cell state known to be associated with profound changes, has been overlooked. In this study we analyzed the expression patterns of the most comprehensive list to date of housekeeping genes during iPS reprogramming of a mouse neural stem cell line N31. Our results show that housekeeping genes’ expression fuctuates signifcantly during the iPS reprogramming. Clustering analysis shows that ribosomal genes’ expression is rising, while the expression of cell-specifc genes, such as vimentin (Vim) or elastin (Eln), is decreasing. To ensure the robustness of the obtained data, we performed a correlative analysis of the genes. Overall, all 70 genes analyzed changed the expression more than two-fold during the reprogramming. The scale of this analysis, that takes into account 70 previously known and newly suggested genes, allowed us to choose the most stable of all genes. We highlight the fact of fuctuation of housekeeping genes during iPS reprogramming, and propose that, to ensure robustness of qPCR experiments in iPS cells, housekeeping genes should be used together in combination, and with a prior testing in a specifc line used in each study. We suggest that the longest splice variants of Rpl13a, Rplp1 and Rps18 can be used as a starting point for such initial testing as the most stable candidates.

LCLs with the AA genotype displayed significantly higher hydrocarbon receptor (AHR).

In this thesis effects and mechanisms of various phytochemicals in relation to colon cancer prevention were studied through application of large-scale gene expression profiling. Expression measurement of thousands of genes can yield a more complete and in-depth insight into the mode of action of the compounds.
