Prakash,1 Scott A. LeMaire,2,3 Dong-Chuan Guo,4 Ludivine Russell,2 Ellen S. Regalado,4 Hossein Golabbakhsh,4 Ralph J. Johnson,4 Hazim J. Safi,5 Anthony L. Estrera,5 Joseph S. Coselli,2,3 Molly S. Bray,1 Suzanne M. Leal,1 Dianna M. Milewicz,4 and John W. Belmont1,* Thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections (TAAD) cause significant morbidity and mortality, but the genetic origins of TAAD remain largely unknown. In a genome-wide analysis of 418 sporadic TAAD cases, we identified 47 copy number variant (CNV) regions that were enriched in or unique to TAAD patients compared to population controls. Gene ontology, expression profiling, and network anal- ysis showed that genes within TAAD CNVs regulate smooth muscle cell adhesion or contractility and interact with the smooth muscle- specific isoforms of a-actin and b-myosin, which are known to cause familial TAAD when altered. Enrichment of these gene functions in rare CNVs was replicated in independent cohorts with sporadic TAAD (STAAD, n ¼ 387) and inherited TAAD (FTAAD, n ¼ 88). The over- all prevalence of rare CNVs (23%) was significantly increased in FTAAD compared with STAAD patients (Fisher’s exact test, p ¼ 0.03). Our findings suggest that rare CNVs disrupting smooth muscle adhesion or contraction contribute to both sporadic and familial disease.

Eilber, Co-chair Professor Hong Wu, Co-chair Sarcomas are cancers of connective tissue, such as bone, nerves, and muscle. Liposarcoma, a neoplasm arising within adipose tissue, is the most common soft tissue sarcoma. Although most commonly found in the retroperitoneum or thighs, liposarcomas can arise throughout the body and are often large when found. Current treatment is limited to surgery and radiation, with chemotherapy doing little to improve prognosis in advanced cases. D ue to the large size of tumors and t heir proximity to organs and healthy tissue, complete surgical removal is difficult and recurrence rates remain high. Liposarcoma can be divided into three histological subtypes: pleomorphic, myxoid/round cell, and /well- dedifferentiated. Here we demonstrate the generation of three novel dedifferentiated liposarcoma xenograft models from freshly resected patient tissue. These xenograft models and their derived cultured cells successfully recapitulate the morphological and gene expression profiles of their patient tumors throughout serial passage in mice. Interestingly, the patients whose tumors could engraft and be serially passaged had significantly shorter survival than patients whose tumors did not engraft. These ii tumors carried gene expression signatures with more aggressive and less differentiated features.

  • Identification of the Rac Gtpase Activating Protein Rho GAP 22 As a New Akt Substrate Defines a Novel Mechanism for Insulin Regulation of Cell Motility
    Identification of the Rac GTPase Activating Protein Rho GAP 22 as a New Akt Substrate Defines a Novel Mechanism for Insulin Regulation of Cell Motility Alexander Francis Rowland Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Garvan Institute of Medical Research & Faculty of Medicine University of New South Wales ABSTRACT Insulin exerts many of its metabolic actions via the canonical PI3K/Akt pathway leading to phosphorylation and 14-3-3 binding of key metabolic targets. Recognising this, the goal of my thesis was to identify novel actions of insulin. To accomplish this I have conducted a screen to identify insulin-responsive 14-3-3 binding phosphoproteins and in so doing have identified a GTPase Activating Protein (GAP) for Rac1 called Rho GAP 22. Insulin increased 14-3-3 binding to Rho GAP 22 by 4 fold and this effect was PI3Kinase and Akt dependent. Using semi-quantitative mass spectrometry we identified two putative 14-3-3 binding sites (Ser16 and Ser397) within Rho GAP 22 and insulin increased phosphorylation at both of these sites. Mutagenesis studies revealed a complex interplay in phosphorylation at these two sites. Mutating Ser16 to Ala almost completely abolished 14-3-3 binding to Rho GAP 22 in vivo but not in vitro. Phosphorylation of Ser16 both in vitro and in vivo was Akt-dependent and inhibition of Akt prevented 14-3-3 binding to Ser16 in vitro. A truncated Rho GAP 22 protein lacking the N-terminal PH domain and Ser16 interacted with 14-3-3 in vivo and this interaction was Akt dependent. The Ser397 site in Rho GAP 22 is located close to the GAP domain and so it is likely that phosphorylation at this site regulates GAP activity.

Lang Director, Molecular Medicine Graduate Program *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Large granular lymphocyte (LGL) leukemia is a disorder of mature cytotoxic cells. LGL leukemia is characterized by accumulation of cytotoxic cells in blood and infiltration in bone marrow and other tissues. Leukemic LGL could arise from expansion of either CD3+ CD8+ T-cells (T-cell LGL leukemia or T-LGL leukemia) or those arising from CD3- natural killer (NK)-cells (NK-cell LGL leukemia or NK-LGL leukemia). LGL leukemia is a rare disorder consisting of less than 5% of non-B cell leukemia. Clinically, LGL leukemia can manifest along a spectrum of disorders ranging from slowly progressing indolent disorder to an aggressive leukemia that could be fatal within months. About fifty percent of LGL leukemia patients also present with variety of autoimmune conditions, rheumatoid arthritis being the most common one. Normally, following antigen clearance, cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL) become sensitive to Fas-mediated apoptosis resulting in activation-induced cell death (AICD).

  • Studies of the Adipose Tissue Transcriptome
    YONGHUA ZHANG STUDIES OF THE ADIPOSE TISSUE TRANSCRIPTOME Thèse présentée à la Faculté des études supérieures de l'Université Laval dans le cadre du programme de doctorat en physiologie-endocrinologie pour l'obtention du grade de Philosophire doctor, (Ph.D.) DÉPARTEMENT D'ANATOMIE ET PHYSIOLOGIE FACULTÉ DE MÉDECINE · UNIVERSITÉ LAVAL QUÉBEC 2008 © Y onghua Zhang, 2008 This thesis is dedicated to my wife Li Hao and my son Luc Haoran. RÉSUMÉ Les études disponibles suggèrent que l'expression des gènes et la régulation cellulaire du tissu adipeux pourraient jouer un rôle important dans le développement des complications reliées à l'obésité. L'identification et la caractérisation du transcriptome de tissu adipeux est susceptible d'aider à comprendre davantage la fonction endocrinienne de ce tissu et le rapport entre l'homéostasie de l'énergie et d'autres systèmes physiologiques. Les outils de la génomique fournissent l'avantage d'étudier simultanément l'expression d'un grand nombre de gènes possiblement impliqués dans les maladies associées à l'obésité. Dans cette thèse, nous avons principalement examiné le transcriptome du tissu adipeux dans diverses conditions physiologiques. La conversion de certains stéroïdes a également été étudiée. La méthodologie des micropuces d'expression a été utlisée, en plus des techniques usuelles de la biochimie des tissus adipeux. Nous avons étudié pour la première fois la variabilité d'expression des gènes dans le tissu adipeux sous-cutané et omental chez des hommes obèses. En second lieu, nous avons étudié la réponse du transcriptome de tissu adipeux à la dihydrotestostérone (DHT) chez les souris. Troisièmement, nous avons examiné le métabolisme de la progestérone dans les cellules adipeuses.
