View of HER2: Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2; TNBC: Triple-Negative Breast Resistance to Systemic Therapy in Patients with Breast Cancer
Wen et al. Cancer Cell Int (2018) 18:128 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12935-018-0625-9 Cancer Cell International PRIMARY RESEARCH Open Access Sulbactam‑enhanced cytotoxicity of doxorubicin in breast cancer cells Shao‑hsuan Wen1†, Shey‑chiang Su2†, Bo‑huang Liou3, Cheng‑hao Lin1 and Kuan‑rong Lee1* Abstract Background: Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major obstacle in breast cancer treatment. The predominant mecha‑ nism underlying MDR is an increase in the activity of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent drug efux trans‑ porters. Sulbactam, a β-lactamase inhibitor, is generally combined with β-lactam antibiotics for treating bacterial infections. However, sulbactam alone can be used to treat Acinetobacter baumannii infections because it inhibits the expression of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter proteins. This is the frst study to report the efects of sulbactam on mammalian cells. Methods: We used the breast cancer cell lines as a model system to determine whether sulbactam afects cancer cells. The cell viabilities in the present of doxorubicin with or without sulbactam were measured by MTT assay. Protein identities and the changes in protein expression levels in the cells after sulbactam and doxorubicin treatment were determined using LC–MS/MS. Real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (real-time RT-PCR) was used to analyze the change in mRNA expression levels of ABC transporters after treatment of doxorubicin with or without sulbactam. The efux of doxorubicin was measures by the doxorubicin efux assay. Results: MTT assay revealed that sulbactam enhanced the cytotoxicity of doxorubicin in breast cancer cells. The results of proteomics showed that ABC transporter proteins and proteins associated with the process of transcription and initiation of translation were reduced. -
Allele-Specific Expression of Ribosomal Protein Genes in Interspecific Hybrid Catfish
Allele-specific Expression of Ribosomal Protein Genes in Interspecific Hybrid Catfish by Ailu Chen A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama August 1, 2015 Keywords: catfish, interspecific hybrids, allele-specific expression, ribosomal protein Copyright 2015 by Ailu Chen Approved by Zhanjiang Liu, Chair, Professor, School of Fisheries, Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences Nannan Liu, Professor, Entomology and Plant Pathology Eric Peatman, Associate Professor, School of Fisheries, Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences Aaron M. Rashotte, Associate Professor, Biological Sciences Abstract Interspecific hybridization results in a vast reservoir of allelic variations, which may potentially contribute to phenotypical enhancement in the hybrids. Whether the allelic variations are related to the downstream phenotypic differences of interspecific hybrid is still an open question. The recently developed genome-wide allele-specific approaches that harness high- throughput sequencing technology allow direct quantification of allelic variations and gene expression patterns. In this work, I investigated allele-specific expression (ASE) pattern using RNA-Seq datasets generated from interspecific catfish hybrids. The objective of the study is to determine the ASE genes and pathways in which they are involved. Specifically, my study investigated ASE-SNPs, ASE-genes, parent-of-origins of ASE allele and how ASE would possibly contribute to heterosis. My data showed that ASE was operating in the interspecific catfish system. Of the 66,251 and 177,841 SNPs identified from the datasets of the liver and gill, 5,420 (8.2%) and 13,390 (7.5%) SNPs were identified as significant ASE-SNPs, respectively. -

Integral to this tool are the \seq2gene" and \gene2pathway" components in series that infer a quantitative pathway-level profile for each sample. The seq2gene function assigns phenotype-associated significance of genomic regions to gene-level scores, where the significance could be p-values of SNPs or point mutations, protein-binding affinity, or transcriptional expression level. The seq2gene function has the feasibility to assign non-exon regions to a range of neighboring genes besides the nearest one, thus facilitating the study of functional non-coding elements[2]. Then the gene2pathway summarizes gene-level measurements to pathway-level scores, comparing the quantity of significance for gene members within a pathway with those outside a pathway. -

Coatomer complex is required for budding from Golgi membranes, and is essential for the retrograde Golgi-to-ER transport of dilysine-tagged proteins. -

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. -

Despite their significance to understanding protein folding and function, quantitative analyses of thermodynamic stabilities have been mostly limited to soluble proteins in purified systems. We have used a highly multiplexed proteomics approach, based on analyses of methionine oxidation rates, to quantify stabilities of ~10,000 unique regions within ~3,000 proteins in human cell extracts. The data identify lysosomal and extracellular proteins as the most stable ontological subsets of the proteome. -

Overlapping Role of SCYL1 and SCYL3 in Maintaining Motor Neuron Viability
The Journal of Neuroscience, March 7, 2018 • 38(10):2615–2630 • 2615 Neurobiology of Disease Overlapping Role of SCYL1 and SCYL3 in Maintaining Motor Neuron Viability Emin Kuliyev,1 Sebastien Gingras,4 XClifford S. Guy,1 Sherie Howell,2 Peter Vogel,3 and XStephane Pelletier1 1Departments of Immunology, 2Pathology, 3Veterinary Pathology Core, Advanced Histology Core, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Memphis, Tennessee 38105, and 4Department of Immunology, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15213 Members of the SCY1-like (SCYL) family of protein kinases are evolutionarily conserved and ubiquitously expressed proteins character- ized by an N-terminal pseudokinase domain, centrally located Huntingtin, elongation factor 3, protein phosphatase 2A, yeast kinase TOR1 repeats, and an overall disorganized C-terminal segment. In mammals, three family members encoded by genes Scyl1, Scyl2, and Scyl3 have been described. Studies have pointed to a role for SCYL1 and SCYL2 in regulating neuronal function and viability in mice and humans, but little is known about the biological function of SCYL3. Here, we show that the biochemical and cell biological properties of SCYL3aresimilartothoseofSCYL1andbothproteinsworkinconjunctiontomaintainmotorneuronviability.Specifically,althoughlack of Scyl3 in mice has no apparent effect on embryogenesis and postnatal life, it accelerates the onset of the motor neuron disorder caused by Scyl1 deficiency. Growth abnormalities, motor dysfunction, hindlimb paralysis, muscle wasting, neurogenic atrophy, motor neuron degeneration, and loss of large-caliber axons in peripheral nerves occurred at an earlier age in Scyl1/Scyl3 double-deficient mice than in Scyl1-deficientmice.DiseaseonsetalsocorrelatedwiththemislocalizationofTDP-43inspinalmotorneurons,suggestingthatSCYL1and SCYL3 regulate TDP-43 proteostasis. Together, our results demonstrate an overlapping role for SCYL1 and SCYL3 in vivo and highlight the importance the SCYL family of proteins in regulating neuronal function and survival. -

Nef stimulates formation of tunneling nanotubes and virological synapses, and is transferred to bystander cells via these intercellular contacts and secreted microvesicles. Nef associates with and activates Pak2, a kinase that regulates T-cell signaling and actin cytoskeleton dynamics, but how Nef promotes nanotube formation is unknown.
