The introduction of DNA microarrays and DNA sequencing technologies in medical genetics and diagnostics has been a challenge that has significantly transformed medical practice and patient management. Because of the great advancements in molecular genetics and the development of simple laboratory technology to identify the mutations in the causative genes, also the diagnostic approach to epilepsy has significantly changed. However, the clinical use of molecular cytogenetics and high-throughput DNA sequencing technologies, which are able to test an entire genome for genetic variants that are associated with the disease, is preparing a further revolution in the near future. Molecular Karyotype and Next-Generation Sequencing have the potential to identify causative genes or loci also in sporadic or non-familial epilepsy cases and may well represent the transition from a genetic to a genomic approach to epilepsy. 1.

  • Mechanisms of HIV-1 Restriction by the Host Protein SAMHD1
    Mechanisms of HIV-1 Restriction by the Host Protein SAMHD1 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jenna Marie Antonucci Graduate Program in Microbiology The Ohio State University 2018 Dissertation Committee Li Wu, Ph.D., Advisor Irina Artsimovitch, Ph.D. Jesse Kwiek, Ph.D. Karin Musier-Forsyth, Ph.D. Copyrighted by Jenna Marie Antonucci 2018 Abstract Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is a human retrovirus that replicates in cells via a well-characterized viral lifecycle. Inhibition at any step in the viral lifecycle results in downstream effects that can impair HIV-1 replication and restrict infection. For decades, researchers have been unable to determine the cause of myeloid-cell specific block in HIV-1 infection. In 2011, the discovery of the first mammalian deoxynucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) triphosphohydrolase (dNTPase) sterile alpha motif and HD domain containing protein 1 (SAMHD1) answered that question and introduced an entirely novel field of study focused on determining the mechanism and control of SAMHD1-mediated restriction of HIV-1 replication. Since then, the research on SAMHD1 has become a timely and imperative topic of virology. The following body of work includes studies furthering the field by confirming the established model and introducing a novel mechanism of SAMHD1-mediated suppression of HIV-1 replication. SAMHD1 was originally identified as a dGTP-dependent dNTPase that restricts HIV-1 infection by hydrolyzing intracellular dNTPs to a level that inhibits efficient reverse transcription of HIV-1 genomic RNA into complementary DNA (cDNA).

Received December 5, 2018; Accepted January 22, 2019; Epub April 1, 2019; Published April 15, 2019 Abstract: There is ongoing debate whether cancer stem cells (CSCs) could arise from the transformation of non- CSCs under specific conditions. In the present study, the role of the three prime repair exonuclease 1 (TREX1) in regulating CSC generation form human osteosarcoma cells was investigated. High, intermediate and low levels of TREX1 expression were respectively observed in low-grade, high-grade and metastatic human osteosarcoma samples, while the opposite tendency was observed for E2F4, a transcription factor associated with G2 arrest. Luciferase assay proved that TREX1 had a negative impact on the activity of E2F4 promoter. TREX1 was highly ex- pressed in CD133- HOS cells (non-CSC osteosarcoma cells) compared to CD133+ ones; whereas TREX1 knockdown endowed the CD133- non-CSCs with CSC-like characteristics in vitro relying on E2F4 activation, as demonstrated by enlarged proportion of the subset expressing CSC markers in flow cytometry analysis, enhanced self-renewal abil- ity in osteosphere formation assay, increased metastasis capacity in migration and invasion assays, together with improved chemoresistance to cisplatin.

Glomerular development has been analyzed mainly in mice, whereas analysis of human kidney development has been minimal because of limited access to embryonic kidneys. We previously reported the induction of three-dimensional primordial glomeruli from human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Here, using transcription activator–like effector nuclease-mediated homologous recombination, we generated human iPS cell lines that express green fluorescent protein (GFP) in the NPHS1 locus, which encodes nephrin, and we show that GFP expression facilitated accurate visualization of nephrin-positive podocyte formation in

This exocrine pancreatic cancer originates from the mutated epithelial cells: acinar and ductal cells. However, the epithelia-derived cancer component forms only a relatively small fraction of the tumor mass. The majority of the tumor consists of acellular fibrous stroma and diverse populations of the non-neoplastic cancer-associated cells. Importantly, the tumor microenvironment is maintained by dynamic cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. In this article, we aim to review the most common drivers of PDAC. Then we summarize the current knowledge on PDAC microenvironment, particularly in relation to pancreatic cancer therapy. The focus is placed on the acellular stroma as well as cell populations that inhabit the matrix.

  • Metabolic Signatures Differentiate Ovarian from Colon Cancer Cell Lines
    Halama et al. J Transl Med (2015) 13:223 DOI 10.1186/s12967-015-0576-z RESEARCH Open Access Metabolic signatures differentiate ovarian from colon cancer cell lines Anna Halama1†, Bella S Guerrouahen2,3,4†, Jennifer Pasquier2,3, Ilhem Diboun1, Edward D Karoly5, Karsten Suhre1,6 and Arash Rafii2,3,7* Abstract Background: In this era of precision medicine, the deep and comprehensive characterization of tumor phenotypes will lead to therapeutic strategies beyond classical factors such as primary sites or anatomical staging. Recently, “-omics” approached have enlightened our knowledge of tumor biology. Such approaches have been extensively implemented in order to provide biomarkers for monitoring of the disease as well as to improve readouts of thera- peutic impact. The application of metabolomics to the study of cancer is especially beneficial, since it reflects the bio- chemical consequences of many cancer type-specific pathophysiological processes. Here, we characterize metabolic profiles of colon and ovarian cancer cell lines to provide broader insight into differentiating metabolic processes for prospective drug development and clinical screening. Methods: We applied non-targeted metabolomics-based mass spectroscopy combined with ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography for the metabolic phenotyping of four cancer cell lines: two from colon cancer (HCT15, HCT116) and two from ovarian cancer (OVCAR3, SKOV3). We used the MetaP server for statistical data analysis. Results: A total of 225 metabolites were detected in all four cell lines; 67 of these molecules significantly discrimi- nated colon cancer from ovarian cancer cells. Metabolic signatures revealed in our study suggest elevated tricar- boxylic acid cycle and lipid metabolism in ovarian cancer cell lines, as well as increased β-oxidation and urea cycle metabolism in colon cancer cell lines.

  • Membrane Proteomic Analysis of Pancreatic Cancer Cells Xiaojun Liu1, Min Zhang1, Vay Liang W Go2, Shen Hu1,3*
    Liu et al. Journal of Biomedical Science 2010, 17:74 http://www.jbiomedsci.com/content/17/1/74 RESEARCH Open Access Membrane proteomic analysis of pancreatic cancer cells Xiaojun Liu1, Min Zhang1, Vay Liang W Go2, Shen Hu1,3* Abstract Background: Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive human tumors due to its high potential of local invasion and metastasis. The aim of this study was to characterize the membrane proteomes of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells of primary and metastatic origins, and to identify potential target proteins related to metastasis of pancreatic cancer. Methods: Membrane/membrane-associated proteins were isolated from AsPC-1 and BxPC-3 cells and identified with a proteomic approach based on SDS-PAGE, in-gel tryptic digestion and liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). X! Tandem was used for database searching against the SwissProt human protein database. Results: We identified 221 & 208 proteins from AsPC-1 and BxPC-3 cells, respectively, most of which are membrane or membrane-associated proteins. A hundred and nine proteins were found in both cell lines while the others were present in either AsPC-1 or BxPC-3 cells. Differentially expressed proteins between two cell lines include modulators of cell adhesion, cell motility or tumor invasion as well as metabolic enzymes involved in glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid cycle, or nucleotide/lipid metabolism. Conclusion: Membrane proteomes of AsPC-1 (metastatic) and BxPC-3 (primary) cells are remarkably different. The differentially expressed membrane proteins may serve as potential targets for diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. Introduction different regions of the same organ and in distant Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive human organs [2,3].
