We aimed to throw light on the mechanism of this process. Methods: Murine cardiomyocytes (HL-1) and primary cultures of human and neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were treated with 25 Amol/L doxazosin for between 0.5 and 48 h. cDNA microarray analysis, real-time RT-PCR, and Western blotting were performed to detect possible changes in gene expression and/or activation of proteins that could be involved in doxazosin-induced apoptosis. Results: Microarray analysis revealed changes in the expression of genes directly involved in the apoptotic end-stage of the cellular response to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Doxazosin considerably increased transcription and translation of gadd153, C/epbb, and DOC-1 in cardiomyocytes as well as translocation of GADD153 to the nucleus, phosphorylation of p38 MAPK (a GADD153 activator), and the initial phosphorylation and subsequent cleavage of focal adhesion kinase (FAK). Experiments repeated following blockade of a1-adrenoreceptors showed no alteration of the above effects of doxazosin. Conclusion: Doxazosin induces the apoptosis of cardiomyocytes via the ER pathway, with increased production of C/EBPh, GADD153 and DOC-1. Likewise it increases phosphorylation of the GADD153 activator p38 MAPK and induces first the phosphorylation, and then the cleavage, of FAK. These effects are not mediated by a1-adrenoreceptors.

  • 4-6 Weeks Old Female C57BL/6 Mice Obtained from Jackson Labs Were Used for Cell Isolation
    Methods Mice: 4-6 weeks old female C57BL/6 mice obtained from Jackson labs were used for cell isolation. Female Foxp3-IRES-GFP reporter mice (1), backcrossed to B6/C57 background for 10 generations, were used for the isolation of naïve CD4 and naïve CD8 cells for the RNAseq experiments. The mice were housed in pathogen-free animal facility in the La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology and were used according to protocols approved by the Institutional Animal Care and use Committee. Preparation of cells: Subsets of thymocytes were isolated by cell sorting as previously described (2), after cell surface staining using CD4 (GK1.5), CD8 (53-6.7), CD3ε (145- 2C11), CD24 (M1/69) (all from Biolegend). DP cells: CD4+CD8 int/hi; CD4 SP cells: CD4CD3 hi, CD24 int/lo; CD8 SP cells: CD8 int/hi CD4 CD3 hi, CD24 int/lo (Fig S2). Peripheral subsets were isolated after pooling spleen and lymph nodes. T cells were enriched by negative isolation using Dynabeads (Dynabeads untouched mouse T cells, 11413D, Invitrogen). After surface staining for CD4 (GK1.5), CD8 (53-6.7), CD62L (MEL-14), CD25 (PC61) and CD44 (IM7), naïve CD4+CD62L hiCD25-CD44lo and naïve CD8+CD62L hiCD25-CD44lo were obtained by sorting (BD FACS Aria). Additionally, for the RNAseq experiments, CD4 and CD8 naïve cells were isolated by sorting T cells from the Foxp3- IRES-GFP mice: CD4+CD62LhiCD25–CD44lo GFP(FOXP3)– and CD8+CD62LhiCD25– CD44lo GFP(FOXP3)– (antibodies were from Biolegend). In some cases, naïve CD4 cells were cultured in vitro under Th1 or Th2 polarizing conditions (3, 4).

Abstract The high mortality rate of gastric cancer (GC) is in part due to the absence of initial disclosure of its biomarkers. The recognition of important genes associated in GC is therefore recommended to advance clinical prognosis, diagnosis and and treatment outcomes. The current investigation used the microarray dataset GSE113255 RNA seq data from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to diagnose differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Pathway and gene ontology enrichment analyses were performed, and a proteinprotein interaction network, modules, target genes - miRNA regulatory network and target genes - TF regulatory network were constructed and analyzed. Finally, validation of hub genes was performed. The 1008 DEGs identified consisted of 505 up regulated genes and 503 down regulated genes.

High throughput sequencing has recently emerged as a powerful and versatile method for analysis of the cancer genome and transcriptome. As these data continue to emerge, the crucial work lies in sorting through the wealth of information to hone in on the critical aspects that will give us a better understanding of biology and new insight for how to treat disease. Finding the important signals within these large data sets is one of the major challenges of next generation sequencing. In this dissertation, I have developed several complementary strategies to describe the genetic underpinnings of lymphomas. I begin with developing a better method for RNA sequencing that enables strand-specific total RNA sequencing and alternative splicing profiling in the same analysis.

Fonin1 · April L. Darling2 · Irina M. Kuznetsova1 · Konstantin K. Turoverov1,3 · Vladimir N. Uversky2,4 Received: 5 August 2019 / Revised: 5 August 2019 / Accepted: 12 August 2019 / Published online: 19 August 2019 © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019 Abstract GPCR–G protein signaling system recognizes a multitude of extracellular ligands and triggers a variety of intracellular signal- ing cascades in response. In humans, this system includes more than 800 various GPCRs and a large set of heterotrimeric G proteins. Complexity of this system goes far beyond a multitude of pair-wise ligand–GPCR and GPCR–G protein interactions. In fact, one GPCR can recognize more than one extracellular signal and interact with more than one G protein. Furthermore, one ligand can activate more than one GPCR, and multiple GPCRs can couple to the same G protein. This defnes an intricate multifunctionality of this important signaling system. Here, we show that the multifunctionality of GPCR–G protein system represents an illustrative example of the protein structure–function continuum, where structures of the involved proteins represent a complex mosaic of diferently folded regions (foldons, non-foldons, unfoldons, semi-foldons, and inducible foldons). The functionality of resulting highly dynamic conformational ensembles is fne-tuned by various post-translational modifcations and alternative splicing, and such ensembles can undergo dramatic changes at interaction with their specifc partners.

  • Methylation of Leukocyte DNA and Ovarian Cancer
    Fridley et al. BMC Medical Genomics 2014, 7:21 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1755-8794/7/21 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Methylation of leukocyte DNA and ovarian cancer: relationships with disease status and outcome Brooke L Fridley1*, Sebastian M Armasu2, Mine S Cicek2, Melissa C Larson2, Chen Wang2, Stacey J Winham2, Kimberly R Kalli3, Devin C Koestler1,4, David N Rider2, Viji Shridhar5, Janet E Olson2, Julie M Cunningham5 and Ellen L Goode2 Abstract Background: Genome-wide interrogation of DNA methylation (DNAm) in blood-derived leukocytes has become feasible with the advent of CpG genotyping arrays. In epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), one report found substantial DNAm differences between cases and controls; however, many of these disease-associated CpGs were attributed to differences in white blood cell type distributions. Methods: We examined blood-based DNAm in 336 EOC cases and 398 controls; we included only high-quality CpG loci that did not show evidence of association with white blood cell type distributions to evaluate association with case status and overall survival. Results: Of 13,816 CpGs, no significant associations were observed with survival, although eight CpGs associated with survival at p < 10−3, including methylation within a CpG island located in the promoter region of GABRE (p = 5.38 x 10−5, HR = 0.95). In contrast, 53 CpG methylation sites were significantly associated with EOC risk (p <5 x10−6). The top association was observed for the methylation probe cg04834572 located approximately 315 kb upstream of DUSP13 (p = 1.6 x10−14). Other disease-associated CpGs included those near or within HHIP (cg14580567; p =5.6x10−11), HDAC3 (cg10414058; p = 6.3x10−12), and SCR (cg05498681; p = 4.8x10−7).

China Received November 22, 2010; Accepted February 28, 2011 DOI: 10.3892/mmr.2011.453 Abstract. Diallyl disulfide (DADS), a sulfur compound Introduction derived from garlic, has been shown to have protective effects against colon carcinogenesis in several studies performed in Colon cancer is one of the major causes of cancer death rodent models. However, its molecular mechanism of action worldwide (1). An understanding of the mechanisms involved remains unclear. This study was designed to confirm the anti- in the occurrence and development of colon cancer would aid proliferative activity of DADS and to screen for differentially in its therapy. Epidemiological investigations have provided expressed genes induced by DADS in human colon cancer cells compelling evidence that environmental factors are modifiers with the aim of exploring its possible anticancer mechanisms. in colon cancer (1-3); diet has also been shown to be an impor- The anti-proliferative capability of DADS in the HT-29 human tant determinant of cancer risk and tumor behavior (3-5). colon cancer cells was analyzed by MTT assays and flow Garlic consumption is very popular all over the world. cytometry.
