  • Defining Functional Interactions During Biogenesis of Epithelial Junctions
    ARTICLE Received 11 Dec 2015 | Accepted 13 Oct 2016 | Published 6 Dec 2016 | Updated 5 Jan 2017 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms13542 OPEN Defining functional interactions during biogenesis of epithelial junctions J.C. Erasmus1,*, S. Bruche1,*,w, L. Pizarro1,2,*, N. Maimari1,3,*, T. Poggioli1,w, C. Tomlinson4,J.Lees5, I. Zalivina1,w, A. Wheeler1,w, A. Alberts6, A. Russo2 & V.M.M. Braga1 In spite of extensive recent progress, a comprehensive understanding of how actin cytoskeleton remodelling supports stable junctions remains to be established. Here we design a platform that integrates actin functions with optimized phenotypic clustering and identify new cytoskeletal proteins, their functional hierarchy and pathways that modulate E-cadherin adhesion. Depletion of EEF1A, an actin bundling protein, increases E-cadherin levels at junctions without a corresponding reinforcement of cell–cell contacts. This unexpected result reflects a more dynamic and mobile junctional actin in EEF1A-depleted cells. A partner for EEF1A in cadherin contact maintenance is the formin DIAPH2, which interacts with EEF1A. In contrast, depletion of either the endocytic regulator TRIP10 or the Rho GTPase activator VAV2 reduces E-cadherin levels at junctions. TRIP10 binds to and requires VAV2 function for its junctional localization. Overall, we present new conceptual insights on junction stabilization, which integrate known and novel pathways with impact for epithelial morphogenesis, homeostasis and diseases. 1 National Heart and Lung Institute, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 2 Computing Department, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 3 Bioengineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 4 Department of Surgery & Cancer, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK.

  • Sarcomere Gene Variants Act As a Genetic Trigger Underlying the Development of Left Ventricular Noncompaction
    www.nature.com/pr BASIC SCIENCE ARTICLE Sarcomere gene variants act as a genetic trigger underlying the development of left ventricular noncompaction Asami Takasaki1, Keiichi Hirono1, Yukiko Hata2, Ce Wang1,3, Masafumi Takeda4, Jun K Yamashita4, Bo Chang1, Hideyuki Nakaoka1, Mako Okabe1, Nariaki Miyao1, Kazuyoshi Saito1, Keijiro Ibuki1, Sayaka Ozawa1, Michikazu Sekine5, Naoki Yoshimura6, Naoki Nishida2, Neil E. Bowles7 and Fukiko Ichida1 BACKGROUND: Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is a primary cardiomyopathy with heterogeneous genetic origins. The aim of this study was to elucidate the role of sarcomere gene variants in the pathogenesis and prognosis of LVNC. METHODS AND RESULTS: We screened 82 Japanese patients (0–35 years old), with a diagnosis of LVNC, for mutations in seven genes encoding sarcomere proteins, by direct DNA sequencing. We identified variants in a significant proportion of cases (27%), which were associated with poor prognosis (p = 0.012), particularly variants in TPM1, TNNC1, and ACTC1 (p = 0.012). To elucidate the pathological role, we developed and studied human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) from a patient carrying a TPM1 p. Arg178His mutation, who underwent heart transplantation. These cells displayed pathological changes, with mislocalization of tropomyosin 1, causing disruption of the sarcomere structure in cardiomyocytes, and impaired calcium handling. Microarray analysis indicated that the TPM1 mutation resulted in the down-regulation of the expression of numerous genes involved in heart development, and positive regulation of cellular process, especially the calcium signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS: Sarcomere genes are implicated as genetic triggers in the development of LVNC, regulating the expression of numerous genes involved in heart development, or modifying the severity of disease.

Thus, understanding (candidate) genes regulating skeletal muscle development is crucial for understanding molecular genetic regulation of muscle growth and can be benefit the meat industry toward the goal of in- creasing meat yields. During the past years, significant progress has been made for understanding these mechanisms, and thus, we decided to write a comprehensive review covering regulators and (candidate) genes crucial for muscle development and growth in farm animals. Detection of these genes and factors increases our understanding of muscle growth and development and is a great help for breeders to satisfy demands for meat production on a global scale.

  • Chemical Agent and Antibodies B-Raf Inhibitor RAF265
    Supplemental Materials and Methods: Chemical agent and antibodies B-Raf inhibitor RAF265 [5-(2-(5-(trifluromethyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl)pyridin-4-yloxy)-N-(4-trifluoromethyl)phenyl-1-methyl-1H-benzp{D, }imidazol-2- amine] was kindly provided by Novartis Pharma AG and dissolved in solvent ethanol:propylene glycol:2.5% tween-80 (percentage 6:23:71) for oral delivery to mice by gavage. Antibodies to phospho-ERK1/2 Thr202/Tyr204(4370), phosphoMEK1/2(2338 and 9121)), phospho-cyclin D1(3300), cyclin D1 (2978), PLK1 (4513) BIM (2933), BAX (2772), BCL2 (2876) were from Cell Signaling Technology. Additional antibodies for phospho-ERK1,2 detection for western blot were from Promega (V803A), and Santa Cruz (E-Y, SC7383). Total ERK antibody for western blot analysis was K-23 from Santa Cruz (SC-94). Ki67 antibody (ab833) was from ABCAM, Mcl1 antibody (559027) was from BD Biosciences, Factor VIII antibody was from Dako (A082), CD31 antibody was from Dianova, (DIA310), and Cot antibody was from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (sc-373677). For the cyclin D1 second antibody staining was with an Alexa Fluor 568 donkey anti-rabbit IgG (Invitrogen, A10042) (1:200 dilution). The pMEK1 fluorescence was developed using the Alexa Fluor 488 chicken anti-rabbit IgG second antibody (1:200 dilution).TUNEL staining kits were from Promega (G2350). Mouse Implant Studies: Biopsy tissues were delivered to research laboratory in ice-cold Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) buffer solution. As the tissue mass available from each biopsy was limited, we first passaged the biopsy tissue in Balb/c nu/Foxn1 athymic nude mice (6-8 weeks of age and weighing 22-25g, purchased from Harlan Sprague Dawley, USA) to increase the volume of tumor for further implantation.
