SPROUTY2 DEFICIENCY IN MICE LEADS TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF ACHALASIA Benjamin Lee Staal A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of GRAND VALLEY STATE UNIVERSITY In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Master of Science Cell and Molecular Biology December 2011 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, I thank God for the privilege of studying His handiwork. I also wish to thank the members of my Graduate Committee for their support and guidance throughout this project. Finally, I thank my family, friends, and colleagues for their continual motivation. iii ABSTRACT SPROUTY2 DEFICIENCY IN MICE LEADS TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF ACHALASIA Sprouty 2 (Spry2), one of the four mammalian Spry family members, is a negative feedback regulator of many receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) signaling including Met. It fine-tunes RTKs signaling through multiple levels of regulations starting from RTK itself to several downstream molecules that are crucial for signal transduction. -

Studies show that generation of angiotensin-(1-7) by angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and its binding to the Mas receptor (MasR) improves glucose homeostasis, partly by enhancing glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS). Thus, islet ACE2 upregulation is viewed as a desirable therapeutic goal. Here, we show that although endogenous islet ACE2 expression is sparse, its inhibition abrogates angiotensin-(1-7)-mediated GSIS. However, a more widely expressed islet peptidase, neprilysin, degrades angiotensin-(1-7) into several peptides. -

Spry2 Regulates Signalling Dynamics and Terminal Bud Branching Behaviour During Lung Development
Genet. Res., Camb.

O’BRIEN * 1Shenzhen University Diabetes Center, AstraZeneca-Shenzhen University Joint Institute of Nephrology, Department of Physiology, Shenzhen University Health Science Center, Shenzhen 518060, China 2Department of Biomedical Sciences, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA (Received 7 November 2014; revised 12 January 2015; accepted 3 February 2015) Summary Development of mammalian lung involves reiterative outgrowth and branching of an epithelial tube into the surrounding mesenchymal bed. Each coordinated growth and branching cycle is driven by reciprocal signal- ling between epithelial and adjacent mesenchymal cells. This signalling network includes FGF, SHH, BMP4 and other pathways. We have characterized lung defects in 36Pub mice carrying a deletion that removes an antagonist of FGF signalling, Spry2. Spry2 deficient mice show an enlarged cystic structure located in the ter- minus of each lobes. Our study shows that Spry2 deficient lungs have reduced lung branching and the cystic structure forms in the early lung development stage. Furthermore, mice carrying a targeted disruption of Spry2 fail to complement the lung phenotype characterized in 36Pub mice. A Spry2-BAC transgene rescues the defect. Interestingly, cystic structure growth is accompanied by the reduced and spatially disorganized ex- pression of Fgf10 and elevated expression of Shh and Bmp4. Altered signalling balance due to the loss of Spry2 causes a delayed branch cycle and cystic growth. Our data underscores the importance of restricting cellular responsiveness to signalling and highlights the interplay between morphogenesis events and spatial localization of gene expression. -

Abstract: Enzymes, once considered static molecular machines acting in defined spatial patterns and sites of action, move to different intra- and extracellular locations, changing their function. This topological regulation revealed a close cross-talk between proteases and signaling events involving post-translational modifications, membrane tyrosine kinase receptors and G-protein coupled recep- tors, motor proteins shuttling cargos in intracellular vesicles, and small-molecule messengers.
