The Mineralocorticoid Receptor Leads to Increased Expression of EGFR
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The mineralocorticoid receptor leads to increased expression of EGFR and T‑type calcium channels that support HL‑1 cell hypertrophy Katharina Stroedecke1,2, Sandra Meinel1,2, Fritz Markwardt1, Udo Kloeckner1, Nicole Straetz1, Katja Quarch1, Barbara Schreier1, Michael Kopf1, Michael Gekle1 & Claudia Grossmann1* The EGF receptor (EGFR) has been extensively studied in tumor biology and recently a role in cardiovascular pathophysiology was suggested. The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) is an important efector of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone‑system and elicits pathophysiological efects in the cardiovascular system; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. Our aim was to investigate the importance of EGFR for MR‑mediated cardiovascular pathophysiology because MR is known to induce EGFR expression. We identifed a SNP within the EGFR promoter that modulates MR‑induced EGFR expression. In RNA‑sequencing and qPCR experiments in heart tissue of EGFR KO and WT mice, changes in EGFR abundance led to diferential expression of cardiac ion channels, especially of the T‑type calcium channel CACNA1H. Accordingly, CACNA1H expression was increased in WT mice after in vivo MR activation by aldosterone but not in respective EGFR KO mice. Aldosterone‑ and EGF‑responsiveness of CACNA1H expression was confrmed in HL‑1 cells by Western blot and by measuring peak current density of T‑type calcium channels. Aldosterone‑induced CACNA1H protein expression could be abrogated by the EGFR inhibitor AG1478. Furthermore, inhibition of T‑type calcium channels with mibefradil or ML218 reduced diameter, volume and BNP levels in HL‑1 cells. In conclusion the MR regulates EGFR and CACNA1H expression, which has an efect on HL‑1 cell diameter, and the extent of this regulation seems to depend on the SNP‑216 (G/T) genotype. -

However, the overall impact of ion channels on tumorigenicity in breast cancer remains controversial. Methods: We conduct microarray meta-analysis on 280 ion channel genes. We identify candidate ion channels that are implicated in breast cancer based on gene expression profiling. We test the relationship between the expression of ion channel genes and p53 mutation status, ER status, and histological tumor grade in the discovery cohort. A molecular signature consisting of ion channel genes (IC30) is identified by Spearman’s rank correlation test conducted between tumor grade and gene expression. A risk scoring system is developed based on IC30. We test the prognostic power of IC30 in the discovery and seven validation cohorts by both Cox proportional hazard regression and log-rank test. -
A De Novo ANK1 Mutation Associated to Hereditary Spherocytosis: a Case Report
Huang et al. BMC Pediatrics (2019) 19:62 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12887-019-1436-4 CASEREPORT Open Access A de novo ANK1 mutation associated to hereditary spherocytosis: a case report Ti-Long Huang1, Bao-Hua Sang1, Qing-Ling Lei1, Chun-Yan Song1, Yun-Bi Lin1,YuLv1, Chun-Hui Yang1,NaLi1, Yue-Huang Yang1, Xian-Wen Zhang2* and Xin Tian1* Abstract Background: Hereditary spherocytosis (HS) is a type of hemolytic anemia caused by abnormal red cell membrane skeletal proteins with few unique clinical manifestations in the neonate and infant. An ANK1 gene mutation is the most common cause of HS. Case presentation: The patient was a 11-month-old boy who suffered from anemia and needed a regular transfusion therapy at an interval of 2–3 months. Hematological investigations showed moderate anemia (Hb80 g/L). Red cells displayed microcytosis (MCV76.4 fl, MCH25.6 pg, MCHC335 g/L). The reticulocytes were elevated (4.8%) and the spherocytes were increased (10%). Direct antiglobulin test was negative. Biochemical test indicated a slight elevation of bilirubin, mainly indirect reacting (TBIL32.5 μmol/L, IBIL24 μmol/L). The neonatal HS ratio is 4.38, obviously up the threshold. Meanwhile, adenovoANK1 mutation (exon 25:c.2693dupC:p.A899Sfs*11) was identified by next-generation sequencing (NGS). Thus, hereditary spherocytosis was finally diagnosed. Conclusions: Gene detection should be considered in some hemolytic anemia which is difficult to diagnose by routine means. We identified a novel de novo ANK1 heterozygous frameshift mutation in a Yi nationality patient while neither of his parents carried this mutation. Keywords: Hereditary spherocytosis- ANK1- frameshift mutation Background (erythrocyte membrane protein band 4.2) are associated Hereditary spherocytosis (HS) results from defects in with HS [5]. -

Abstract The high mortality rate of gastric cancer (GC) is in part due to the absence of initial disclosure of its biomarkers. The recognition of important genes associated in GC is therefore recommended to advance clinical prognosis, diagnosis and and treatment outcomes. The current investigation used the microarray dataset GSE113255 RNA seq data from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to diagnose differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Pathway and gene ontology enrichment analyses were performed, and a proteinprotein interaction network, modules, target genes - miRNA regulatory network and target genes - TF regulatory network were constructed and analyzed. Finally, validation of hub genes was performed. The 1008 DEGs identified consisted of 505 up regulated genes and 503 down regulated genes. -

Abstract: Human hereditary epilepsy has been found related to ion channel mutations in voltage-gated channels (Na+, K+, Ca2+, Cl-), ligand gated channels (GABA receptors), and G-protein coupled receptors, such as Mass1. In addition, some transmembrane proteins or receptor genes, including PRRT2 and nAChR, and glucose transporter genes, such as GLUT1 and SLC2A1, are also about the onset of epilepsy. The discovery of these genetic defects has contributed greatly to our understanding of the pathology of epilepsy. This review focuses on introducing and summarizing epilepsy-associated genes and related findings in recent decades, pointing out related mutant genes that need to be further studied in the future. 1 Introduction Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by 2 Malfunction of Ion channel epileptic seizures caused by abnormal brain activity. 1 in Functional variation in voltage or ligand-gated ion 100 (50 million people) people are affected by symptoms channel mutations is a major cause of idiopathic epilepsy, of this disorder worldwide, with men, young children, and especially in rare genetic forms. -

A Knowledge-guided Mechanistic Model of Synthetic Lethality in the HCT116 Vorinostat-resistant Colon Cancer Xenograft Model Cell-line Paul Aiyetan June 22, 2021 Abstract With an overall lifetime risk of about 4.3% and 4.0%, in men and women respectively, colorectal cancer remains the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States. In persons aged 55 and below, its rate increased at 1% per year in the years 2008 to 2017 despite the steady decline associated with improved screening, early diagnosis and treatment in the general population. Besides standardized therapeutic regimen, many trials continue to evaluate the potential benefits of vorinostat, mostly in combination with other anti-neoplastic agents for its treatment. Vorinostat, an FDA approved anti-cancer drug known as suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA), an histone deacylase (HDAC) inhibitor, through many mechanisms, causes cancer cell arrest and death. However, like many other anti-neoplastic agents, resistance and or failures have been observed. In the HCT116 colon cancer cell line xenograft model, exploiting potential lethal molecular interactions by additional gene knockouts restored vorinotat sensitivity. This phenomenon, known as synthetic lethality, offers a promise to selectively target cancer cells. Although without clearly delineated understanding of underlying molecular processes, it has been demonstrated as an effective cancer-killing mechanism. -
Genomics Analysis of Potassium Channel Genes in Songbirds Reveals
Lovell et al. BMC Genomics 2013, 14:470 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/14/470 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Genomics analysis of potassium channel genes in songbirds reveals molecular specializations of brain circuits for the maintenance and production of learned vocalizations Peter V Lovell, Julia B Carleton and Claudio V Mello* Abstract Background: A fundamental question in molecular neurobiology is how genes that determine basic neuronal properties shape the functional organization of brain circuits underlying complex learned behaviors. Given the growing availability of complete vertebrate genomes, comparative genomics represents a promising approach to address this question. Here we used genomics and molecular approaches to study how ion channel genes influence the properties of the brain circuitry that regulates birdsong, a learned vocal behavior with important similarities to human speech acquisition. We focused on potassium (K-)Channels, which are major determinants of neuronal cell excitability. Starting with the human gene set of K-Channels, we used cross-species mRNA/protein alignments, and syntenic analysis to define the full complement of orthologs, paralogs, allelic variants, as well as novel loci not previously predicted in the genome of zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata). We also compared protein coding domains in chicken and zebra finch orthologs to identify genes under positive selective pressure, and those that contained lineage-specific insertions/deletions in functional domains. Finally, we conducted comprehensive in situ hybridizations to determine the extent of brain expression, and identify K-Channel gene enrichments in nuclei of the avian song system. Results: We identified 107 K-Channel finch genes, including 6 novel genes common to non-mammalian vertebrate lineages.
