These aberrations also are indicators of a poor prognosis is commonly deregulated in human cancer, mTOR inhibitors, for prostate cancer patients (11, 12). More importantly, long-term rapamycin and its derivatives, are being actively tested in androgen deprivation treatment for prostate cancer patients that cancer clinical trials. Clinical updates indicate that the reinforces the PI3K/AKT pathway also up-regulates mTOR anticancer effect of these drugs is limited, perhaps due to activation in prostate tumor (9, 10). These abovementioned rapamycin-dependent induction of oncogenic cascades by an experimental and clinical data lead to the supposition that mTOR as yet unclear mechanism. As such, we investigated rapamy- inhibitors (rapamycin and its derivatives) should be effective in cin-dependent phosphoproteomics and discovered that 250 treating human cancer. Unfortunately, recent clinical data indicates phosphosites in 161 cellular proteins were sensitive to that rapamycin shows therapeutic potential in only few types of rapamycin. Among these, rapamycin regulated four kinases human cancer: endometrial carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, and and four phosphatases. -
Deciphering the Functions of Ets2, Pten and P53 in Stromal Fibroblasts in Multiple
Deciphering the Functions of Ets2, Pten and p53 in Stromal Fibroblasts in Multiple Breast Cancer Models DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Julie Wallace Graduate Program in Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Michael C. Ostrowski, PhD, Advisor Gustavo Leone, PhD Denis Guttridge, PhD Dawn Chandler, PhD Copyright by Julie Wallace 2013 Abstract Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in American women, and is also the second leading cause of cancer death in women. It is estimated that nearly a quarter of a million new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed in women in the United States this year, and approximately 40,000 of these women will die from breast cancer. Although death rates have been on the decline for the past decade, there is still much we need to learn about this disease to improve prevention, detection and treatment strategies. The majority of early studies have focused on the malignant tumor cells themselves, and much has been learned concerning mutations, amplifications and other genetic and epigenetic alterations of these cells. However more recent work has acknowledged the strong influence of tumor stroma on the initiation, progression and recurrence of cancer. Under normal conditions this stroma has been shown to have protective effects against tumorigenesis, however the transformation of tumor cells manipulates this surrounding environment to actually promote malignancy. Fibroblasts in particular make up a significant portion of this stroma, and have been shown to impact various aspects of tumor cell biology. -

Analysis of the Stability of 70 Housekeeping Genes During Ips Reprogramming Yulia Panina1,2*, Arno Germond1 & Tomonobu M
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Analysis of the stability of 70 housekeeping genes during iPS reprogramming Yulia Panina1,2*, Arno Germond1 & Tomonobu M. Watanabe1 Studies on induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells highly rely on the investigation of their gene expression which requires normalization by housekeeping genes. Whether the housekeeping genes are stable during the iPS reprogramming, a transition of cell state known to be associated with profound changes, has been overlooked. In this study we analyzed the expression patterns of the most comprehensive list to date of housekeeping genes during iPS reprogramming of a mouse neural stem cell line N31. Our results show that housekeeping genes’ expression fuctuates signifcantly during the iPS reprogramming. Clustering analysis shows that ribosomal genes’ expression is rising, while the expression of cell-specifc genes, such as vimentin (Vim) or elastin (Eln), is decreasing. To ensure the robustness of the obtained data, we performed a correlative analysis of the genes. Overall, all 70 genes analyzed changed the expression more than two-fold during the reprogramming. The scale of this analysis, that takes into account 70 previously known and newly suggested genes, allowed us to choose the most stable of all genes. We highlight the fact of fuctuation of housekeeping genes during iPS reprogramming, and propose that, to ensure robustness of qPCR experiments in iPS cells, housekeeping genes should be used together in combination, and with a prior testing in a specifc line used in each study. We suggest that the longest splice variants of Rpl13a, Rplp1 and Rps18 can be used as a starting point for such initial testing as the most stable candidates. -

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. -

Atypical DUSPs: 19 phosphatases in search of a role Yolanda Bayón and Andrés Alonso Instituto de Biología y Genética Molecular, CSIC-Universidad de Valladolid c/ Sanz y Forés s/n, 47003 Valladolid, Spain Abstract. Atypical Dual Specificity Phosphatases (A-DUSPs) are a group of 19 phosphatases poorly characterized. They are included among the Class I Cys-based PTPs and contain the active site motif HCXXGXXR conserved in the Class I PTPs. These enzymes present a phosphatase domain similar to MKPs, but lack any substrate targeting domain similar to the CH2 present in this group. Although most of these phosphatases have no more than 250 amino acids, their size ranges from the 150 residues of the smallest A-DUSP, VHZ/DUSP23, to the 1158 residues of the putative PTP DUSP27. The substrates of this family include MAPK, but, in general terms, it does not look that MAPK are the general substrates for the whole group. In fact, other substrates have been described for some of these phosphatases, like the 5’CAP structure of mRNA, glycogen, or STATs and still the substrates of many A-DUSPs have not been identified. In addition to the PTP domain, most of these enzymes present no additional recognizable domains in their sequence, with the exception of CBM-20 in laforin, GTase in HCE1 and a Zn binding domain in DUSP12. -

PTEN gene is considered one of the most mutated tumor suppressor genes in human cancer, and it’s likely to become the first one in the near future. Since 1997, its involvement in tumor suppression has smoothly increased, up to the current importance. Germline mutations of PTEN cause the PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome (PHTS), which include the past-called Cowden, Bannayan- Riley-Ruvalcaba, Proteus, Proteus-like, and Lhermitte-Duclos syndromes. Somatic mutations of PTEN have been observed in glioblastoma, prostate cancer, and brest cancer cell lines, quoting only the first tissues where the involvement has been proven. The negative regulation of cell interactions with the extracellular matrix could be the way PTEN phosphatase acts as a tumor suppressor. PTEN gene plays an essential role in human development. A recent model sees PTEN function as a stepwise gradation, which can be impaired not only by heterozygous mutations and homozygous losses, but also by other molecular mechanisms, such as transcriptional regression, epigenetic silencing, regulation by microRNAs, posttranslational modification, and aberrant localization. -
DUSP10 Regulates Intestinal Epithelial Cell Growth and Colorectal Tumorigenesis
Oncogene (2016) 35, 206–217 © 2016 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0950-9232/16 www.nature.com/onc ORIGINAL ARTICLE DUSP10 regulates intestinal epithelial cell growth and colorectal tumorigenesis CW Png1,2, M Weerasooriya1,2, J Guo3, SJ James1,2,HMPoh1,2, M Osato3, RA Flavell4, C Dong5, H Yang3 and Y Zhang1,2 Dual specificity phosphatase 10 (DUSP10), also known as MAP kinase phosphatase 5 (MKP5), negatively regulates the activation of MAP kinases. Genetic polymorphisms and aberrant expression of this gene are associated with colorectal cancer (CRC) in humans. However, the role of DUSP10 in intestinal epithelial tumorigenesis is not clear. Here, we showed that DUSP10 knockout (KO) mice had increased intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) proliferation and migration and developed less severe colitis than wild-type (WT) mice in response to dextran sodium sulphate (DSS) treatment, which is associated with increased ERK1/2 activation and Krüppel-like factor 5 (KLF5) expression in IEC. In line with increased IEC proliferation, DUSP10 KO mice developed more colon tumours with increased severity compared with WT mice in response to administration of DSS and azoxymethane (AOM). Furthermore, survival analysis of CRC patients demonstrated that high DUSP10 expression in tumours was associated with significant improvement in survival probability. Overexpression of DUSP10 in Caco-2 and RCM-1 cells inhibited cell proliferation. Our study showed that DUSP10 negatively regulates IEC growth and acts as a suppressor for CRC. Therefore, it could be targeted for the development of therapies for colitis and CRC. Oncogene (2016) 35, 206–217; doi:10.1038/onc.2015.74; published online 16 March 2015 INTRODUCTION development. -

Previous studies have focussed on the pathogenesis of liver cirrhosis developing into HCC, but the molecular mechanism remains unclear. The aims of the present study were to identify key genes related to the transformation of cirrhosis into HCC, and explore the associated molecular mechanisms. Methods: GSE89377, GSE17548, GSE63898 and GSE54236 mRNA microarray datasets from Gene Expression Omni- bus (GEO) were analysed to obtain diferentially expressed genes (DEGs) between HCC and liver cirrhosis tissues, and network analysis of protein–protein interactions (PPIs) was carried out. String and Cytoscape were used to analyse modules and identify hub genes, Kaplan–Meier Plotter and Oncomine databases were used to explore relationships between hub genes and disease occurrence, development and prognosis of HCC, and the molecular mechanism of the main hub gene was probed using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) pathway analysis.
