Regulation of PDGFC Signalling and Extracellular Matrix Composition by FREM1 in Mice
RESEARCH ARTICLE Disease Models & Mechanisms 6, 1426-1433 (2013) doi:10.1242/dmm.013748 Regulation of PDGFC signalling and extracellular matrix composition by FREM1 in mice Fenny Wiradjaja1, Denny L. Cottle1, Lynelle Jones1 and Ian Smyth1,2,* SUMMARY Fras1-related extracellular matrix protein 1 (FREM1) is required for epidermal adhesion during embryogenesis, and mice lacking the gene develop fetal skin blisters and a range of other developmental defects. Mutations in members of the FRAS/FREM gene family cause diseases of the Fraser syndrome spectrum. Embryonic epidermal blistering is also observed in mice lacking PdgfC and its receptor, PDGFRα. In this article, we show that FREM1 binds to PDGFC and that this interaction regulates signalling downstream of PDGFRα. Fibroblasts from Frem1-mutant mice respond to PDGFC stimulation, but with a shorter duration and amplitude than do wild-type cells. Significantly, PDGFC-stimulated expression of the metalloproteinase inhibitor Timp1 is reduced in cells with Frem1 mutations, leading to reduced basement membrane collagen I deposition. These results show that the physical interaction of FREM1 with PDGFC can regulate remodelling of the extracellular matrix downstream of PDGFRα. We propose that loss of FREM1 function promotes epidermal blistering in Fraser syndrome as a consequence of reduced PDGFC activity, in addition to its stabilising role in the basement membrane. DMM INTRODUCTION The FRAS/FREM family of proteins share characteristic The FRAS/FREM extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins (FRAS1, chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan (CSPG) core repeats similar FREM1 and FREM2) mediate adhesion between the epidermal to those found in the NG2 proteoglycan (Stallcup, 2002). In this basement membrane and the underlying dermis during embryonic protein, they directly bind platelet-derived growth factor A development (reviewed in Short et al., 2007; Petrou et al., 2008).

Identification of Shared and Unique Gene Families Associated with Oral
International Journal of Oral Science (2017) 9, 104–109 OPEN www.nature.com/ijos ORIGINAL ARTICLE Identification of shared and unique gene families associated with oral clefts Noriko Funato and Masataka Nakamura Oral clefts, the most frequent congenital birth defects in humans, are multifactorial disorders caused by genetic and environmental factors. Epidemiological studies point to different etiologies underlying the oral cleft phenotypes, cleft lip (CL), CL and/or palate (CL/P) and cleft palate (CP). More than 350 genes have syndromic and/or nonsyndromic oral cleft associations in humans. Although genes related to genetic disorders associated with oral cleft phenotypes are known, a gap between detecting these associations and interpretation of their biological importance has remained. Here, using a gene ontology analysis approach, we grouped these candidate genes on the basis of different functional categories to gain insight into the genetic etiology of oral clefts. We identified different genetic profiles and found correlations between the functions of gene products and oral cleft phenotypes. Our results indicate inherent differences in the genetic etiologies that underlie oral cleft phenotypes and support epidemiological evidence that genes associated with CL/P are both developmentally and genetically different from CP only, incomplete CP, and submucous CP. The epidemiological differences among cleft phenotypes may reflect differences in the underlying genetic causes. Understanding the different causative etiologies of oral clefts is

The role of PDGF-A in lung development, injury and repair. Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Medicine 1448. 53 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-513-0291-1. The developmental processes that take place during embryogenesis depend on a great number of proteins that are important for cell-to-cell communication. Platelet-derived growth factors are known to be important for epithelial-mesenchymal interactions during development and organogenesis. However, many details are still lacking regarding organ-specific PDGF expression patterns and detailed cellular functions. This thesis aims to better describe the contribution of PDGF-A signaling to lung developmental and injury processes. To study the cell-specific expression patterns of PDGF-A we generated a reporter mouse that show LacZ expression in all PDGF-A positive cells. This mouse model was used to characterize PDGF-A expression in embryonic and adult mouse tissues (paper I). With the use of three different reporter mice, we described the cell type specific expression patterns of PDGF-A, PDGF-C and PDGFRα in mouse lungs, from embryonic day 10.5 (E10.5) when development is initiated, until adulthood (Postnatal day 60) when the lung is fully mature (paper II).

Dual Targeting of JAK2 and ERK Interferes with the Myeloproliferative Neoplasm Clone and Enhances Therapeutic Efficacy

Meyer 1,2 © The Author(s) 2021 Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) show dysregulated JAK2 signaling. JAK2 inhibitors provide clinical benefits, but compensatory activation of MAPK pathway signaling impedes efficacy. We hypothesized that dual targeting of JAK2 and ERK1/2 could enhance clone control and therapeutic efficacy. We employed genetic and pharmacologic targeting of ERK1/2 in Jak2V617F MPN mice, cells and patient clinical isolates. Competitive transplantations of Jak2V617F vs. wild-type bone marrow (BM) showed that ERK1/2 deficiency in hematopoiesis mitigated MPN features and reduced the Jak2V617F clone in blood and hematopoietic progenitor compartments. ERK1/2 ablation combined with JAK2 inhibition suppressed MAPK transcriptional programs, normalized cytoses and promoted clone control suggesting dual JAK2/ERK1/2 targeting as enhanced corrective approach. Combined pharmacologic JAK2/ ERK1/2 inhibition with ruxolitinib and ERK inhibitors reduced proliferation of Jak2V617F cells and corrected erythrocytosis and splenomegaly of Jak2V617F MPN mice. Longer-term treatment was able to induce clone reductions. BM fibrosis was significantly decreased in MPLW515L-driven MPN to an extent not seen with JAK2 inhibitor monotherapy. Colony formation from JAK2V617F patients’ CD34+ blood and BM was dose-dependently inhibited by combined JAK2/ERK1/2 inhibition in PV, ET, and MF subsets.
