It is made available under aCC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 International license. Keywords Structural equation modeling, significant shortest paths, pathway analysis, disease modules. Abstract Background The characterization of diseases in terms of perturbated gene modules was recently introduced for the analysis of gene expression data. Some approaches were proposed in literature, but many times they are inductive approaches. This means that starting directly from data, they try to infer key gene networks potentially associated to the biological phenomenon studied. However they ignore the biological information already available to characterize the gene modules. Here we propose the detection of perturbed gene modules using the combination of data driven and hypothesis-driven approaches relying on biological metabolic pathways and significant shortest paths tested by structural equation modeling. -

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. -

Modulation of NF-Κb Signalling by Microbial Pathogens
REVIEWS Modulation of NF‑κB signalling by microbial pathogens Masmudur M. Rahman and Grant McFadden Abstract | The nuclear factor-κB (NF‑κB) family of transcription factors plays a central part in the host response to infection by microbial pathogens, by orchestrating the innate and acquired host immune responses. The NF‑κB proteins are activated by diverse signalling pathways that originate from many different cellular receptors and sensors. Many successful pathogens have acquired sophisticated mechanisms to regulate the NF‑κB signalling pathways by deploying subversive proteins or hijacking the host signalling molecules. Here, we describe the mechanisms by which viruses and bacteria micromanage the host NF‑κB signalling circuitry to favour the continued survival of the pathogen. The nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) family of transcription Signalling targets upstream of NF‑κB factors regulates the expression of hundreds of genes that NF-κB proteins are tightly regulated in both the cyto- are associated with diverse cellular processes, such as pro- plasm and the nucleus6. Under normal physiological liferation, differentiation and death, as well as innate and conditions, NF‑κB complexes remain inactive in the adaptive immune responses. The mammalian NF‑κB cytoplasm through a direct interaction with proteins proteins are members of the Rel domain-containing pro- of the inhibitor of NF-κB (IκB) family, including IκBα, tein family: RELA (also known as p65), RELB, c‑REL, IκBβ and IκBε (also known as NF-κBIα, NF-κBIβ and the NF-κB p105 subunit (also known as NF‑κB1; which NF-κBIε, respectively); IκB proteins mask the nuclear is cleaved into the p50 subunit) and the NF-κB p100 localization domains in the NF‑κB complex, thus subunit (also known as NF‑κB2; which is cleaved into retaining the transcription complex in the cytoplasm. -

Integrated Molecular Characterisation of the MAPK Pathways in Human
ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s42003-020-01552-6 OPEN Integrated molecular characterisation of the MAPK pathways in human cancers reveals pharmacologically vulnerable mutations and gene dependencies 1234567890():,; ✉ Musalula Sinkala 1 , Panji Nkhoma 2, Nicola Mulder 1 & Darren Patrick Martin1 The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways are crucial regulators of the cellular processes that fuel the malignant transformation of normal cells. The molecular aberrations which lead to cancer involve mutations in, and transcription variations of, various MAPK pathway genes. Here, we examine the genome sequences of 40,848 patient-derived tumours representing 101 distinct human cancers to identify cancer-associated mutations in MAPK signalling pathway genes. We show that patients with tumours that have mutations within genes of the ERK-1/2 pathway, the p38 pathways, or multiple MAPK pathway modules, tend to have worse disease outcomes than patients with tumours that have no mutations within the MAPK pathways genes. Furthermore, by integrating information extracted from various large-scale molecular datasets, we expose the relationship between the fitness of cancer cells after CRISPR mediated gene knockout of MAPK pathway genes, and their dose-responses to MAPK pathway inhibitors. Besides providing new insights into MAPK pathways, we unearth vulnerabilities in specific pathway genes that are reflected in the re sponses of cancer cells to MAPK targeting drugs: a revelation with great potential for guiding the development of innovative therapies. -

It is commonly known in the US as the cause of Infectious Mononucleosis, and around the world as the cause of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and malignant lymphomas such as non-Hodgkin lymphoma, endemic Burkett’s lymphoma and Hodgkin lymphoma. Additionally, the EBV is used to immortalize cells to create cell lines for in-vitro studies. -
Involvement of Inhibitor Kappa B Kinase 2 (IKK2) in the Regulation of Vascular Tone
Laboratory Investigation (2018) 98:1311–1319 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41374-018-0061-4 ARTICLE Involvement of inhibitor kappa B kinase 2 (IKK2) in the regulation of vascular tone 1 1 1 1 Youngin Kwon ● Soo-Kyoung Choi ● Seonhee Byeon ● Young-Ho Lee Received: 6 November 2017 / Revised: 22 March 2018 / Accepted: 23 March 2018 / Published online: 21 May 2018 © United States & Canadian Academy of Pathology 2018 Abstract Inhibitor kappa B kinase 2 (IKK2) plays an essential role in the activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB). Recently, it has been suggested that IKK2 acts as a myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) and contributes to vasoconstriction in mouse aorta. However, the underlying mechanisms are still unknown. Therefore, we investigated whether IKK2 acts as a MLCK or regulates the activity of myosin light chain phosphatase (MLCP). Pressure myograph was used to measure vascular tone in rat mesenteric arteries. Immunofluorescence staining was performed to identify phosphorylation levels of MLC (ser19), MYPT1 (thr853 and thr696) and CPI-17 (thr38). SC-514 (IKK2 inhibitor, 50 μM) induced relaxation in the mesenteric arteries pre-contracted with 70 mM high K+ solution or U-46619 (thromboxane analog, 5 μM). The relaxation induced by SC-514 + 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: was increased in the arteries pre-contracted with U-46619 compared to arteries pre-contracted with 70 mM high K solution. U-46619-induced contraction was decreased by treatment of SC-514 in the presence of MLCK inhibitor, ML-7 (10 μM). In the absence of intracellular Ca2+, U-46619 still induced contraction, which was decreased by treatment of SC-514. -
