Cellular Processes 7 1 r r r Cell Signalling Biology Michael J. Berridge Module 7 Cellular Processes 7 1 Module 7 Cellular Processes Synopsis Signalling pathways use different messenger systems acting through specific sensors and effectors to control a great variety of cell types (Module 7: Table cell inventory). Each specialized cell type has developed control mechanisms to suit their particular functions. For example, skeletal and cardiac muscle cells have very rapid signalling mechanisms capable of driving contraction within milliseconds. Smooth muscle cells tend to act more slowly, and are far more diverse in both their function and control mechanisms. Some cells contract in a conventional way in response to an external agonist, while others have more complex control mechanisms responsible for maintaining the tonic contraction of the smooth muscle cells surrounding blood vessels. Another example is cell secretion, where there is similar diversity in function and control. Preformed secretory products packaged into vesicles are released through a process of exocytosis. In exocrine glands and the intestine, there is a process of fluid secretion that depends upon the active transport of ions to provide the driving force for a parallel flow of water. Secretion is evident in many different cell types and cellular processes, such as transmitter release during presynaptic events in neurons, enzyme and fluid secretion by pancreatic acinar cells, release of insulin by insulin-secreting β-cells and inflammatory mediators by mast cells. Many of these mammalian cell types are controlled by more than one signalling pathway, and the object here is to understand how signalling pathways and their downstream sensors and effectors function to bring about a change in cellular activity in some typical examples of specialized cell types. Mammalian cell types Male germ cells There are a large number of mammalian cell types Neural stem cells (Module 7: Table cell inventory). They are adapted to per- form highly specific functions, which are controlled by Nervous system signalling systems uniquely adapted to carry out their par- Cortex ticular functions.

  • Marfan Syndrome Precision Panel Overview Indications Clinical Utility
    Marfan Syndrome Precision Panel Overview Marfan Syndrome (MFS) is a spectrum of disorders caused by a genetic defect of the connective tissue and it is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. Since the connective tissue is the tissue that helps body growth as well as serving as a scaffold for cells and organs, Marfan Syndrome is a pleiotropic syndrome affecting mainly musculoskeletal, cardiac and ocular systems. The most severe of these manifestations include aortic root dilation and dissection, which are responsible for early patient demise. Pregnancy is a time of increased cardiovascular risk for women with Marfan syndrome, so an early diagnosis is key in pregnancy management. The Igenomix Marfan Syndrome Precision Panel can be used to make an accurate and directed diagnosis as well as a differential diagnosis of connective tissue disorders due to their overlapping phenotypic features ultimately leading to a better management and prognosis of the disease. It provides a comprehensive analysis of the genes involved in this disease using next-generation sequencing (NGS) to fully understand the spectrum of relevant genes involved. Indications The Igenomix Marfan Syndrome Precision Panel is indicated for those patients with a clinical suspicion or diagnosis with or without the following manifestations: - Subluxation of lenses - Cardiovascular findings: mitral valve prolapse, aortic regurgitation, mitral regurgitation, aortic dilation, dissection or aneurysm - Tall and thin stature - Long fingers and toes - Pectus carinatum or excavatum - Scoliosis - Hypermobile joints - Severe hindfoot valgus Clinical Utility The clinical utility of this panel is: - The genetic and molecular confirmation for an accurate clinical diagnosis of a symptomatic patient. Understanding global and molecular functions of fibrillin containing microfibrils for the development of a comprehensive theory of pathogenesis.

  • Marfan Syndrome
    Marfan Syndrome Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a connective tissue disorder that exhibits a high degree of clinical variability. Clinical symptoms typically involve the cardiovascular, ocular, and skeletal systems. Early diagnosis is crucial for treatment of skeletal, orthopedic, and Tests to Consider cardiovascular abnormalities. The diagnosis of MFS can be made or suspected based on established clinical criteria (see below). MFS is caused by pathogenic variants in the FBN1 Marfan Syndrome (FBN1) Sequencing and gene; however, there is signicant overlap of the clinical features with syndromes caused by Deletion/Duplication 2005584 pathogenic variants in other genes.

    Whole Exome Sequencing Gene package Skeletal Dysplasia, Version 2.1, 31-1-2020 Technical information DNA was enriched using Agilent SureSelect DNA + SureSelect OneSeq 300kb CNV Backbone + Human All Exon V7 capture and paired-end sequenced on the Illumina platform (outsourced). The aim is to obtain 10 Giga base pairs per exome with a mapped fraction of 0.99. The average coverage of the exome is ~50x. Duplicate and non-unique reads are excluded. Data are demultiplexed with bcl2fastq Conversion Software from Illumina. Reads are mapped to the genome using the BWA-MEM algorithm (reference: http://bio-bwa.sourceforge.net/). Variant detection is performed by the Genome Analysis Toolkit HaplotypeCaller (reference: http://www.broadinstitute.org/gatk/). The detected variants are filtered and annotated with Cartagenia software and classified with Alamut Visual. It is not excluded that pathogenic mutations are being missed using this technology. At this moment, there is not enough information about the sensitivity of this technique with respect to the detection of deletions and duplications of more than 5 nucleotides and of somatic mosaic mutations (all types of sequence changes).

  • Mass Phenotype
    MASS PHENOTYPE MASS Phenotype is a connective tissue disorder that is similar to Marfan syndrome in that people with the condition have the similar Mitral valve, Aorta, Skin, and Skeletal features. People with MASS phenotype do not have lens dislocation and do not show progressive and dangerous aortic root enlargement, hallmark features of Marfan syndrome. MASS phenotype is similar to Marfan syndrome, but does not have dangerous aortic root enlargement. What other names do people use for MASS phenotype? MASS phenotype is also known as MASS syndrome. How prevalent is MASS phenotype? There aren’t any good estimates regarding the prevalence of MASS phenotype. What are the characteristics of MASS phenotype? The features of MASS phenotype are: • Mitral valve prolapse (MVP), a condition in which the mitral valve of the heart closes properly, but then flops backward, which allows blood to leak into the chamber from which it came instead of moving forward. This leaking is called regurgitation • Aortic root diameter may be at the upper limits of normal for the person’s body size, but it does not worsen over time. In addition, it does not increase the risk of aortic dissection. MARFAN.ORG | 800-8-MARFAN EXT. 126 | [email protected] MASS PHENOTYPE page 2 • Skin stretch marks unrelated to weight change (striae). • Skeletal (bone and joint) features of Marfan syndrome (including scoliosis, chest wall deformities , and joint hypermobility). What causes MASS phenotype? MASS phenotype can be caused by a change in the FBN1 (fibrillin-1) gene, the same gene that causes Marfan syndrome. It can be inherited within families (passed down through generations).
