Implications for Diabetic Nephropathy
ORIGINAL ARTICLE Hyperglycemia Causes Renal Cell Damage via CCN2-Induced Activation of the Tropomyosin Receptor Kinase A, TrkA Implications for Diabetic Nephropathy Maria Fragiadaki,1 Nicola Hill,1 Reiko Hewitt,1 George Bou-Gharios,1,2 Terence Cook,1,3 Frederick W. Tam,1 Jan Domin,1,4 and Roger M. Mason1 CCN2, a secreted profibrotic protein, is highly expressed in di- biopsy specimens from patients with different stages of DN abetic nephropathy (DN) and implicated in its pathogenesis; (6). CCN2 is also induced by TGF-b, hypoxia (low oxygen), however, the actions of CCN2 in DN remain elusive. We previously and advanced glycation-end products, all of which are demonstrated that CCN2 triggers signaling via tropomyosin re- stimulants that result in kidney damage (6–9). Moreover, ceptor kinase A (TrkA). Trace expression of TrkA is found in CCN2 overexpression in transgenic mice with streptozotocin- normal kidneys, but its expression is elevated in several nephrop- induced DN led to worsening of the disease, thus indicating athies; yet its role in DN is unexplored. In this study we show de the latter may play a profibrotic role after primary injury in novo expression of TrkA in human and murine DN. We go on to the context of diabetes (10). study the molecular mechanisms leading to TrkA activation and show – More evidence that CCN2 is a profibrotic protein comes that it involves hypoxia, as demonstrated by ischemia reperfusion fi injury and in vitro experiments mimicking hypoxia, implicating from studies of genetically modi ed animals.

Defects in neurogenesis are associated with neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders; therefore, elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying neurogenesis can advance our understanding of the pathophysiology of these disorders and facilitate the discovery of novel therapeutic targets. In this study, we performed a comparative transcriptomic analysis to identify common targets of the proneural transcription factors Neurog1/2 and Ascl1 during neurogenesis of human and mouse stem cells. We successfully identified C3orf70 as a novel common target gene of Neurog1/2 and Ascl1 during neurogenesis. Using in situ hybridization, we demonstrated that c3orf70a and c3orf70b, two orthologs of C3orf70, were expressed in the midbrain and hindbrain of zebrafish larvae. -

This article is published with open access Abstract The dominant paradigm for HPV carcinogenesis includes integration into the host genome followed by expression of E6 and E7 (E6/E7). We explored an alternative carcinogenic pathway characterized by episomal E2, E4, and E5 (E2/E4/E5) expression. Half of HPV positive cervical and pharyngeal cancers comprised a subtype with increase in expression of E2/E4/ E5, as well as association with lack of integration into the host genome. Models of the E2/E4/E5 carcinogenesis show p53 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: dependent enhanced proliferation in vitro, as well as increased susceptibility to induction of cancer in vivo. Whole genomic expression analysis of the E2/E4/E5 pharyngeal cancer subtype is defined by activation of the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) pathway and this subtype is susceptible to combination FGFR and mTOR inhibition, with implications for targeted therapy. -

ABSTRACT We developed and clinically validated a hybrid capture next generation sequencing assay to detect somatic alterations and microsatellite instability in solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. This targeted oncology assay utilizes tumor- normal matched samples for highly accurate somatic alteration calling and whole transcriptome RNA sequencing for unbiased identification of gene fusion events. The assay was validated with a combination of clinical specimens and cell lines, and recorded a sensitivity of 99.1% for single nucleotide variants, 98.1% for indels, 99.9% for gene rearrangements, 98.4% for copy number variations, and 99.9% for microsatellite instability detection. This assay presents a wide array of data for clinical management and clinical trial enrollment while conserving limited tissue. -

The immune complexes are deposited in the glomerular mesangium, leading to inflammation and loss of renal function, but the complete pathophysiology of the disease is not understood. Using an integrated global transcriptomic and proteomic profiling approach, we investigated the role of the mesangium in the onset and progression of IgAN. Global gene expression was investigated by microarray analysis of the glomerular compartment of renal biopsy specimens from patients with IgAN (n=19) and controls (n=22). Using curated glomerular cell type–specific genes from the published literature, we found differential expression of a much higher percentage of mesangial cell–positive standard genes than podocyte-positive standard genes in IgAN. Principal coordinate analysis of expression data revealed clear separation of patient and control samples on the basis of mesangial but not podocyte cell–positive standard genes. -

ETV5 Links the FGFR3 and Hippo Signalling Pathways in Bladder Cancer Received: 2 December 2016 Erica Di Martino, Olivia Alder , Carolyn D
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN ETV5 links the FGFR3 and Hippo signalling pathways in bladder cancer Received: 2 December 2016 Erica di Martino, Olivia Alder , Carolyn D. Hurst & Margaret A. Knowles Accepted: 14 November 2018 Activating mutations of fbroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) are common in urothelial Published: xx xx xxxx carcinoma of the bladder (UC). Silencing or inhibition of mutant FGFR3 in bladder cancer cell lines is associated with decreased malignant potential, confrming its important driver role in UC. However, understanding of how FGFR3 activation drives urothelial malignant transformation remains limited. We have previously shown that mutant FGFR3 alters the cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesion properties of urothelial cells, resulting in loss of contact-inhibition of proliferation. In this study, we investigate a transcription factor of the ETS-family, ETV5, as a putative efector of FGFR3 signalling in bladder cancer. We show that FGFR3 signalling induces a MAPK/ERK-mediated increase in ETV5 levels, and that this results in increased level of TAZ, a co-transcriptional regulator downstream of the Hippo signalling pathway involved in cell-contact inhibition. We also demonstrate that ETV5 is a key downstream mediator of the oncogenic efects of mutant FGFR3, as its knockdown in FGFR3-mutant bladder cancer cell lines is associated with reduced proliferation and anchorage-independent growth. Overall this study advances our understanding of the molecular alterations occurring during urothelial malignant transformation and indicates TAZ as a possible therapeutic target in FGFR3-dependent bladder tumours. Fibroblast growth factors (FGF) and their four tyrosine kinase receptors (FGFR1-4) activate multiple downstream cellular signalling pathways, such as MAPK/ERK, PLCγ1, PI3K and STATs, and regulate a variety of physiolog- ical processes, encompassing embryogenesis, angiogenesis, metabolism, and wound healing1–3. -
