DEVO-7 Types of myosins –7– myo1D is (one of a number of) situs inversus genes: its absence leads to the full reversal of organ positioning along the LR axis, with organs adopting a mirror-image orientation.

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.

The authors contributed equally to the manuscript. y Received: 11 June 2020; Accepted: 7 July 2020; Published: 9 July 2020 Abstract: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key modulators of post-transcriptional gene regulation in a plethora of processes, including actin–myosin cytoskeleton dynamics. Recent evidence points to the widespread effects of miRNAs on actin–myosin cytoskeleton dynamics, either directly on the expression of actin and myosin genes or indirectly on the diverse signaling cascades modulating cytoskeletal arrangement. Furthermore, studies from various human models indicate that miRNAs contribute to the development of various human disorders. The potentially huge impact of miRNA-based mechanisms on cytoskeletal elements is just starting to be recognized. In this review, we summarize recent knowledge about the importance of microRNA modulation of the actin–myosin cytoskeleton affecting physiological processes, including cardiovascular function, hematopoiesis, podocyte physiology, and osteogenesis. Keywords: miRNA; actin; myosin; actin–myosin complex; Rho kinase; cancer; smooth muscle; hematopoiesis; stress fiber; gene expression; cardiovascular system; striated muscle; muscle cell differentiation; therapy 1. Introduction Actin–myosin interactions are the primary source of force generation in mammalian cells. Actin forms a cytoskeletal network and the myosin motor proteins pull actin filaments to produce contractile force. All eukaryotic cells contain an actin–myosin network inferring contractile properties to these cells.

  • Novel Myosin Mutations for Hereditary Hearing Loss Revealed by Targeted Genomic Capture and Massively Parallel Sequencing
    European Journal of Human Genetics (2014) 22, 768–775 & 2014 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1018-4813/14 www.nature.com/ejhg ARTICLE Novel myosin mutations for hereditary hearing loss revealed by targeted genomic capture and massively parallel sequencing Zippora Brownstein1,6, Amal Abu-Rayyan2,6, Daphne Karfunkel-Doron1, Serena Sirigu3, Bella Davidov4, Mordechai Shohat1,4, Moshe Frydman1,5, Anne Houdusse3, Moien Kanaan2 and Karen B Avraham*,1 Hereditary hearing loss is genetically heterogeneous, with a large number of genes and mutations contributing to this sensory, often monogenic, disease. This number, as well as large size, precludes comprehensive genetic diagnosis of all known deafness genes. A combination of targeted genomic capture and massively parallel sequencing (MPS), also referred to as next-generation sequencing, was applied to determine the deafness-causing genes in hearing-impaired individuals from Israeli Jewish and Palestinian Arab families. Among the mutations detected, we identified nine novel mutations in the genes encoding myosin VI, myosin VIIA and myosin XVA, doubling the number of myosin mutations in the Middle East. Myosin VI mutations were identified in this population for the first time. Modeling of the mutations provided predicted mechanisms for the damage they inflict in the molecular motors, leading to impaired function and thus deafness. The myosin mutations span all regions of these molecular motors, leading to a wide range of hearing phenotypes, reinforcing the key role of this family of proteins in auditory function. This study demonstrates that multiple mutations responsible for hearing loss can be identified in a relatively straightforward manner by targeted-gene MPS technology and concludes that this is the optimal genetic diagnostic approach for identification of mutations responsible for hearing loss.

  • Histopathologic, Genetic and Molecular Characterization of Endometrial Cancer Racial Disparity

Simple Summary: Black patients are diagnosed and die earlier of endometrial cancer in comparison with their White counterparts. Factors that have been implicated in this racial disparity, such as socioeconomic status, increased frequencies of more aggressive tumor histology, and comorbid conditions, do not account for all of the disparity. Molecular defects in the endometrial tumors likely also contribute to the more aggressive tumor biology and the patient disparities. In this study, we reviewed the published data of molecular characteristics of endometrial cancer in different races. The majority of the publications compare Black and White patients, and identify molecules and pathways that can be targeted with existing drugs. These findings encourage molecular profile studies comparing additional races and ethnicities, and development of race-specific treatments. Abstract: In contrast to the decline in incidence and mortality of most other cancers, these

We found that iASPP, an inhibitor of p53 and predicted regulatory subunit of the PP1 phosphatase, associates with EB1 at microtubule plus‐ends via a SxIP motif. iASPP silencing or mutation of the SxIP motif led to defective microtubule capture at the leading edge of migrating cells, and at the cortex of mitotic cells leading to abnormal positioning of the mitotic spindle. These effects were recapitulated by the knockdown of Myosin‐Ic (Myo1c), identified as a novel partner of iASPP. Moreover, iASPP or Myo1c knockdown cells failed to round up during mitosis because of defective cortical rigidity. We propose that iASPP, together with EB1 and Myo1c, contributes to mitotic cell cortex rigidity, allowing astral microtubule capture and appropriate positioning of the mitotic spindle. 1 Centre de Recherche en Cancérologie de Marseille (CRCM), Inserm, Institut Paoli‐Calmettes, Aix‐ Marseille Univ, CNRS, 13009 Marseille, France.

In vivo, LV-10 cells do not cause graft-versus-host disease while mediating graft-versus-leukemia effect against adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Since pediatric AML (pAML) and adult AML are different on a genetic and epigenetic level, we investigate herein whether LV-10 cells also efficiently kill pAML cells. We show that the majority of primary pAML are killed by LV-10 cells, with different levels of sensitivity to killing. Transcriptionally, pAML sensitive to LV-10 killing expressed a myeloid maturation signature.
