  • Lgr5 Homologues Associate with Wnt Receptors and Mediate R-Spondin Signalling
    ARTICLE doi:10.1038/nature10337 Lgr5 homologues associate with Wnt receptors and mediate R-spondin signalling Wim de Lau1*, Nick Barker1{*, Teck Y. Low2, Bon-Kyoung Koo1, Vivian S. W. Li1, Hans Teunissen1, Pekka Kujala3, Andrea Haegebarth1{, Peter J. Peters3, Marc van de Wetering1, Daniel E. Stange1, Johan E. van Es1, Daniele Guardavaccaro1, Richard B. M. Schasfoort4, Yasuaki Mohri5, Katsuhiko Nishimori5, Shabaz Mohammed2, Albert J. R. Heck2 & Hans Clevers1 The adult stem cell marker Lgr5 and its relative Lgr4 are often co-expressed in Wnt-driven proliferative compartments. We find that conditional deletion of both genes in the mouse gut impairs Wnt target gene expression and results in the rapid demise of intestinal crypts, thus phenocopying Wnt pathway inhibition. Mass spectrometry demonstrates that Lgr4 and Lgr5 associate with the Frizzled/Lrp Wnt receptor complex. Each of the four R-spondins, secreted Wnt pathway agonists, can bind to Lgr4, -5 and -6. In HEK293 cells, RSPO1 enhances canonical WNT signals initiated by WNT3A. Removal of LGR4 does not affect WNT3A signalling, but abrogates the RSPO1-mediated signal enhancement, a phenomenon rescued by re-expression of LGR4, -5 or -6. Genetic deletion of Lgr4/5 in mouse intestinal crypt cultures phenocopies withdrawal of Rspo1 and can be rescued by Wnt pathway activation. Lgr5 homologues are facultative Wnt receptor components that mediate Wnt signal enhancement by soluble R-spondin proteins. These results will guide future studies towards the application of R-spondins for regenerative purposes of tissues expressing Lgr5 homologues. The genes Lgr4, Lgr5 and Lgr6 encode orphan 7-transmembrane 4–5 post-induction onwards.

  • Activation of Hypermethylated P2RY1 Mitigates Gastric Cancer by Promoting Apoptosis and Inhibiting Proliferation
    Activation of hypermethylated P2RY1 mitigates gastric cancer by promoting apoptosis and inhibiting proliferation Yinggang Hua Xiamen University Medical College Long Li Xiamen University Medical College Liangliang Cai Zhongshan Hospital Xiamen University Guoyan Liu ( [email protected] ) Zhongshan Hospital Xiamen University Research Article Keywords: Diffuse type gastric cancer, DNA methylation 450K array, P2RY1 receptor, ERK signal pathway, Tumor suppressor gene Posted Date: July 26th, 2021 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-351723/v1 License: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Read Full License Page 1/16 Abstract P2RY1 receptor is known to cause cancer by activating the ERK signal pathway, its DNA methylation status or even the corresponding regulatory mechanism remains unknown. In this study, DNA methylation chip was used to prole the genome-wide DNA methylation level in gastric cancer tissues. Proliferation and apoptosis of the SGC7901 gastric cancer cell line were determined after treatment with a selective P2RY1 receptor agonist, MRS2365. The promoter region of P2RY1 was found to be highly methylated with 4 hypermethylated sites (|Δβ value| >0.2) in diffuse gastric cancer and then were validated by bioinformatic analysis in TCGA database. Analysis of MRS2365-treated cells by annexin-V/PI staining and Caspase-3 activity assays indicated the induction of apoptosis in SGC7901 cells. P2RY1 receptor activation in human SGC7901 gastric cancer cells via the MRS2365 agonist induced apoptosis and reduced cell growth. High DNA methylation in the promoter region of P2RY1 may have contributed to the reduced expression of P2RY1’s mRNA, which is likely responsible for the “aggressive” nature of the diffuse type gastric cancer.

  • The Role of Olfactory Genes in the Expression of Rodent Paternal Care Behavior

Paternal care is rare in rodents, but can have significant consequences for offspring fitness, suggesting a need to understand the factors that regulate its expression. Pup-related odor cues are critical for the onset and maintenance of paternal care. Here, I consider the role of olfaction in the expression of paternal care in rodents. The medial preoptic area shares neural projections with the olfactory and accessory olfactory bulbs, which are responsible for the interpretation of olfactory cues detected by the main olfactory and vomeronasal systems. The olfactory, trace amine, membrane-spanning 4-pass A, vomeronasal 1, vomeronasal 2 and formyl peptide receptors are all involved in olfactory detection. I highlight the roles that 10 olfactory genes play in the expression of direct paternal care behaviors, acknowledging that this list is not exhaustive.

The full contents can be found at http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/ 10.1111/bph.13348/full. G protein-coupled receptors are one of the eight major pharmacological targets into which the Guide is divided, with the others being: ligand-gated ion channels, voltage-gated ion channels, other ion channels, nuclear hormone receptors, catalytic receptors, enzymes and transporters. These are presented with nomenclature guidance and summary information on the best available pharmacological tools, alongside key references and suggestions for further reading.
