  • Loss of the NKX3.1 Tumorsuppressor Promotes the TMPRSS2-ERG
    Thangapazham et al. BMC Cancer 2014, 14:16 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2407/14/16 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Loss of the NKX3.1 tumorsuppressor promotes the TMPRSS2-ERG fusion gene expression in prostate cancer Rajesh Thangapazham, Francisco Saenz, Shilpa Katta, Ahmed A Mohamed, Shyh-Han Tan, Gyorgy Petrovics, Shiv Srivastava and Albert Dobi* Abstract Background: In normal prostate epithelium the TMPRSS2 gene encoding a type II serine protease is directly regulated by male hormones through the androgen receptor. In prostate cancer ERG protooncogene frequently gains hormonal control by seizing gene regulatory elements of TMPRSS2 through genomic fusion events. Although, the androgenic activation of TMPRSS2 gene has been established, little is known about other elements that may interact with TMPRSS2 promoter sequences to modulate ERG expression in TMPRSS2-ERG gene fusion context. Methods: Comparative genomic analyses of the TMPRSS2 promoter upstream sequences and pathway analyses were performed by the Genomatix Software. NKX3.1 and ERG genes expressions were evaluated by immunoblot or by quantitative Real-Time PCR (qRT-PCR) assays in response to siRNA knockdown or heterologous expression. QRT-PCR assay was used for monitoring the gene expression levels of NKX3.1-regulated genes. Transcriptional regulatory function of NKX3.1 was assessed by luciferase assay. Recruitment of NKX3.1 to its cognate elements was monitored by Chromatin Immunoprecipitation assay. Results: Comparative analysis of the TMPRSS2 promoter upstream sequences among different species revealed the conservation of binding sites for the androgen inducible NKX3.1 tumor suppressor. Defects of NKX3.1, such as, allelic loss, haploinsufficiency, attenuated expression or decreased protein stability represent established pathways in prostate tumorigenesis.

A solution of 7-dehydrocholesterol is applied to a plastic film by roll-to-roll slot-die coating and dried by a far-infrared lamp. Upon exposure to ultraviolet B irradiation, these films are converted to previtamin D3 films. After heat-treating the previtamin D3 film, high-performance liquid chromatography measurements are performed using commercial vitamin D3 as a standard sample. The results confirm that vitamin D3 can be produced by large-area coating and post-treatment processes. Specifically, 3.16 0.746 mg of vitamin D is obtained through ultraviolet B irradiation and heat-treatment of ± 3 24.8 1.44 mg of coated 7-dehydrocholesterol. ± Keywords: slot-die coating; roll-to-roll (R2R); vitamin D3; ultraviolet B (UVB); high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) 1.

  • Daily Lifestyle Modifications to Improve Quality of Life And
    brain sciences Review Daily Lifestyle Modifications to Improve Quality of Life and Survival in Glioblastoma: A Review Sarah Travers and N. Scott Litofsky * Division of Neurosurgery, University of Missouri School of Medicine, Columbia, MO 65212, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Survival in glioblastoma remains poor despite advancements in standard-of-care treatment. Some patients wish to take a more active role in their cancer treatment by adopting daily lifestyle changes to improve their quality of life or overall survival. We review the available literature through PubMed and Google Scholar to identify laboratory animal studies, human studies, and ongoing clinical trials. We discuss which health habits patients adopt and which have the most promise in glioblastoma. While results of clinical trials available on these topics are limited, dietary restrictions, exercise, use of supplements and cannabis, and smoking cessation all show some benefit in the comprehensive treatment of glioblastoma. Marital status also has an impact on survival. Further clinical trials combining standard treatments with lifestyle modifications are necessary to quantify their survival advantages.

  • Method Development and Validation of Vitamin D2 and Vitamin D3 Using Mass Spectrometry
    Method Development and Validation of Vitamin D2 and Vitamin D3 Using Mass Spectrometry Devon Victoria Riley A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science University of Washington 2016 Committee: Andrew Hoofnagle Geoffrey Baird Dina Greene Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Laboratory Medicine ©Copyright 2016 Devon V. Riley ii University of Washington Abstract Method Development and Validation of Vitamin D2 and Vitamin D3 Using Mass Spectrometry Devon V. Riley Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Associate Professor Andrew Hoofnagle, MD, PhD Vitamin D has long been known to maintain bone health by regulating calcium and phosphorous homeostasis. In recent years, scientists have discovered additional physiological roles for vitamin D. The complex interaction between the active vitamin D hormone and its metabolic precursors continues to be a rich area of research. Fundamental to this research is the availability of accurate and precise assays. Few published assays for vitamins D2 and D3 have contained sufficient details on method validation or performance characteristics. The liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) assay developed for this thesis has undergone a rigorous validation and proven to yield a sensitive and specific method that exceeds the capabilities of all previously published methods. Developing and validating a novel assay is often complicated by the lack of established acceptability standards. This thesis explores this challenge, specifically for establishing meaningful interpretations and qualification standards of the lower limit of the measuring interval. Altogether, future research focused on vitamins D2, D3 and the Vitamin D pathway can benefit from this robust LC-MS/MS assay and the associated quality parameters outlined in this thesis.

  • Abstract Mahapatra, Debabrata
    ABSTRACT MAHAPATRA, DEBABRATA. Vitamin D Receptor and Xenobiotic Interactions: Insights into the diversity and complexity of molecular interactions and their outcomes (Under the direction of Seth W. Kullman). The etiology of a significant number of human diseases including hypertension, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity and cancer are in part associated with exposures to environmental contaminants. Recent trends in toxicological research indicate a growing interest in chemicals capable of disrupting the endocrine system. These chemicals comprise a range of natural and synthetic molecules that interact with nuclear hormone receptors altering signaling pathways regulating adverse effects in multiple organ systems, tissue and cell types. While the interaction of endocrine disrupting xenobiotics with nuclear receptors such as the Estrogen receptor (ER), Thyroid receptor (TR), Glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and Androgen receptor (AR) has been studied in detail, similar research involving xenobiotic interactions with the Vitamin D receptor (VDR) has remained underexplored. This dissertation examines the role of vitamin d receptor as a potential target of xenobiotic induced endocrine disruption and provides new insights into the possible mechanisms underlying the complex molecular interactions between VDR and select VDR agonists and antagonists. Chapter 1 tests the usefulness and importance of orthogonal assays for validation and confirmation of activity profiles of chemicals generated by the qHTS (Quantitative Highthroughput Testing)

Abstract: Acne vulgaris (AV) is a chronic disease that affects a significant percentage of the world’s population. Its development is influenced by both external and internal factors. The purpose of this review is to demonstrate the effect of basic nutrient intake on the exacerbation or alleviation of AV lesions. A retrospective review of publications in PubMed regarding diet therapy and the impact of individual nutrient intake on the skin condition of patients was conducted. Ingestion of products with a high glycaemic index may indirectly lead to sebum overproduction, which promotes infection with Cutibacterium acnes and causes inflammation.
