Epha4/Tie2 Crosstalk Regulates Leptomeningeal Collateral Remodeling Following Ischemic Stroke
EphA4/Tie2 crosstalk regulates leptomeningeal collateral remodeling following ischemic stroke Benjamin Okyere, … , John B. Matson, Michelle H. Theus J Clin Invest. 2019. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI131493. Research In-Press Preview Neuroscience Vascular biology Leptomeningeal anastomoses or pial collateral vessels play a critical role in cerebral blood flow (CBF) restoration following ischemic stroke. The magnitude of this adaptive response is postulated to be controlled by the endothelium, although the underlying molecular mechanisms remain under investigation. Here we demonstrated that endothelial genetic deletion, using EphA4f/f/Tie2-Cre and EphA4f/f/VeCahderin-CreERT2 mice and vessel painting strategies, implicated EphA4 receptor tyrosine kinase as a major suppressor of pial collateral remodeling, CBF and functional recovery following permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion. Pial collateral remodeling is limited by the cross talk between EphA4-Tie2 signaling in vascular endothelial cells, which is mediated through p-Akt regulation. Furthermore, peptide inhibition of EphA4 resulted in acceleration of the pial arteriogenic response. Our findings demonstrate EphA4 is a negative regulator of Tie2 receptor signaling which limits pial collateral arteriogenesis following cerebrovascular occlusion. Therapeutic targeting of EphA4 and/or Tie2 represents an attractive new strategy for improving collateral function, neural tissue health and functional recovery following ischemic stroke.

Harnessing Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor Protein 6 (LRP6) Genetic Variation and Wnt Signaling for Innovative Diagnostics in Complex Diseases
OPEN The Pharmacogenomics Journal (2018) 18, 351–358 www.nature.com/tpj REVIEW Harnessing low-density lipoprotein receptor protein 6 (LRP6) genetic variation and Wnt signaling for innovative diagnostics in complex diseases Z-M Wang1,2, J-Q Luo1,2, L-Y Xu3, H-H Zhou1,2 and W Zhang1,2 Wnt signaling regulates a broad variety of processes in both embryonic development and various diseases. Recent studies indicated that some genetic variants in Wnt signaling pathway may serve as predictors of diseases. Low-density lipoprotein receptor protein 6 (LRP6) is a Wnt co-receptor with essential functions in the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, and mutations in LRP6 gene are linked to many complex human diseases, including metabolic syndrome, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and osteoporosis. Therefore, we focus on the role of LRP6 genetic polymorphisms and Wnt signaling in complex diseases, and the mechanisms from mouse models and cell lines. It is also highly anticipated that LRP6 variants will be applied clinically in the future. The brief review provided here could be a useful resource for future research and may contribute to a more accurate diagnosis in complex diseases.

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. -

Herein, we present single-cell tran- scriptome profiling of metastatic lung adenocarcinoma, the most prevalent histological lung cancer type diagnosed at stage IV in over 40% of all cases. From 208,506 cells populating the normal tissues or early to metastatic stage cancer in 44 patients, we identify a cancer cell subtype deviating from the normal differentiation trajectory and dominating the metastatic stage. In all stages, the stromal and immune cell dynamics reveal ontological and functional changes that create a pro-tumoral and immunosuppressive microenvironment. Normal resident myeloid cell populations are gradually replaced with monocyte-derived macrophages and dendritic cells, along with T-cell exhaustion. This extensive single-cell analysis enhances our understanding of molecular and cellular dynamics in metastatic lung cancer and reveals potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets in cancer-microenvironment interactions. 1 Samsung Genome Institute, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul 06351, Korea. -

Pasquier et al. J Transl Med (2020) 18:52 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12967-020-02244-9 Journal of Translational Medicine REVIEW Open Access Angiocrine endothelium: from physiology to cancer Jennifer Pasquier1,2*, Pegah Ghiabi2, Lotf Chouchane3,4,5, Kais Razzouk1, Shahin Rafi3 and Arash Rafi1,2,3 Abstract The concept of cancer as a cell-autonomous disease has been challenged by the wealth of knowledge gathered in the past decades on the importance of tumor microenvironment (TM) in cancer progression and metastasis. The sig- nifcance of endothelial cells (ECs) in this scenario was initially attributed to their role in vasculogenesis and angiogen- esis that is critical for tumor initiation and growth. Nevertheless, the identifcation of endothelial-derived angiocrine factors illustrated an alternative non-angiogenic function of ECs contributing to both physiological and pathological tissue development. Gene expression profling studies have demonstrated distinctive expression patterns in tumor- associated endothelial cells that imply a bilateral crosstalk between tumor and its endothelium. Recently, some of the molecular determinants of this reciprocal interaction have been identifed which are considered as potential targets for developing novel anti-angiocrine therapeutic strategies. Keywords: Angiocrine, Endothelium, Cancer, Cancer microenvironment, Angiogenesis Introduction of blood vessels in initiation of tumor growth and stated Metastatic disease accounts for about 90% of patient that in the absence of such angiogenesis, tumors can- mortality. Te difculty in controlling and eradicating not expand their mass or display a metastatic phenotype metastasis might be related to the heterotypic interaction [7]. Based on this theory, many investigators assumed of tumor and its microenvironment [1]. -
Stromal Cell Interactions Mediated by Hypoxia-Inducible Factors Promote Angiogenesis, Lymphangiogenesis, and Metastasis
Oncogene (2013) 32, 4057–4063 & 2013 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0950-9232/13 www.nature.com/onc REVIEW Cancer–stromal cell interactions mediated by hypoxia-inducible factors promote angiogenesis, lymphangiogenesis, and metastasis GL Semenza Interactions between cancer cells and stromal cells, including blood vessel endothelial cells (BECs), lymphatic vessel endothelial cells (LECs), bone marrow-derived angiogenic cells (BMDACs) and other bone marrow-derived cells (BMDCs) play important roles in cancer progression. Intratumoral hypoxia, which affects both cancer and stromal cells, is associated with a significantly increased risk of metastasis and mortality in many human cancers. Recent studies have begun to delineate the molecular mechanisms underlying the effect of intratumoral hypoxia on cancer progression. Reduced O2 availability induces the activity of hypoxia- inducible factors (HIFs), which activate the transcription of target genes encoding proteins that play important roles in many critical aspects of cancer biology. Included among these are secreted factors, including angiopoietin 2, angiopoietin-like 4, placental growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor B, stem cell factor (kit ligand), stromal-derived factor 1, and vascular endothelial growth factor. These factors are produced by hypoxic cancer cells and directly mediate functional interactions with BECs, LECs, BMDACs and other BMDCs that promote angiogenesis, lymphangiogenesis, and metastasis. In addition, lysyl oxidase (LOX) and LOX-like proteins, -
Coexpression of ATP-Binding Cassette Proteins ABCG5 and ABCG8 Permits Their Transport to the Apical Surface
Coexpression of ATP-binding cassette proteins ABCG5 and ABCG8 permits their transport to the apical surface Gregory A. Graf, … , Jonathan C. Cohen, Helen H. Hobbs J Clin Invest. 2002;110(5):659-669. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI16000. Article Cardiology Mutations in either ATP-binding cassette (ABC) G5 or ABCG8 cause sitosterolemia, an autosomal recessive disorder of sterol trafficking. To determine the site of action of ABCG5 and ABCG8, we expressed recombinant, epitope-tagged mouse ABCG5 and ABCG8 in cultured cells. Both ABCG5 and ABCG8 underwent N-linked glycosylation. When either protein was expressed individually in cells, the N-linked sugars remained sensitive to Endoglycosidase H (Endo H). When ABCG5 and ABCG8 were coexpressed, the attached sugars were Endo H–resistant and neuraminidase-sensitive, indicating that the proteins were transported to the trans-Golgi complex. The mature, glycosylated forms of ABCG5 and ABCG8 coimmunoprecipitated, consistent with heterodimerization of these two proteins. The Endo H–sensitive forms of ABCG5 and ABCG8 were confined to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), whereas the mature forms were present in non-ER fractions in cultured hepatocytes. Immunoelectron microscopy revealed ABCG5 and ABCG8 on the plasma membrane of these cells. In polarized WIF-B cells, recombinant ABCG5 localized to the apical (canalicular) membrane when coexpressed with ABCG8, but not when expressed alone. To our knowledge this is the first direct demonstration that trafficking of an ABC half-transporter to the cell surface requires the presence of its dimerization partner.
