Here, we http://dx.doi.org/ 10.1002/stem.2062 directed mESCs towards eye field and retinal fates, to test whether a specific component of the signaling network in frog embryos, Kermit2, is important in mammalian eye devel- opment.

ABSTRACT Tumour angiogenesis is a vital process in the pathology of tumour development and metastasis. Targeting markers of tumour endothelium provide a means of targeted destruction of a tumours oxygen and nutrient supply via destruction of tumour vasculature, which in turn ultimately leads to beneficial consequences to patients. Although current anti -angiogenic and vascular targeting strategies help patients, more potently in combination with chemo therapy, there is still a need for more tumour endothelial marker discoveries as current treatments have cardiovascular and other side effects. For the first time, the analyses of in-vivo biotinylation of an embryonic system is performed to obtain putative vascular targets. Also for the first time, deep sequencing is applied to freshly isolated tumour and normal endothelial cells from lung, colon and bladder tissues for the identification of pan-vascular-targets. Integration of the proteomic, deep sequencing, public cDNA libraries and microarrays, delivers 5,892 putative vascular targets to the science community.

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.

Background The eukaryotic PDZ domain is a multifunctional protein-protein interacting motif that is found in a variety of proteins and is involved in both the clustering of signaling molecules and the organization of protein networks. GIPC2 (GIPC PDZ domain containing family, member 2), also known as Address: 8400 Baltimore Ave., Suite 302, College Park, MD 20740, USA http://www.sabbiotech.com 1 SEMCAP2, is a 315 amino acid protein that localizes to the cytoplasm and contains one PDZ domain. Expressed at high levels in kidney and colon and at lower levels in adult liver, GIPC2 interacts with SEMA5A and is thought to function as a scaffold protein, possibly modulating cell adhesion and growth factor signaling and playing a role in tumorigenesis.

Capobianchi1, Francesco Nicola Lauria1 and Giuseppe Ippolito 1 Abstract In the last months, many studies have clearly described several mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 infection at cell and tissue level, but the mechanisms of interaction between host and SARS-CoV-2, determining the grade of COVID-19 severity, are still unknown. We provide a network analysis on protein–protein interactions (PPI) between viral and host proteins to better identify host biological responses, induced by both whole proteome of SARS-CoV-2 and specific viral proteins. A host-virus interactome was inferred, applying an explorative algorithm (Random Walk with Restart, RWR) triggered by 28 proteins of SARS-CoV-2. The analysis of PPI allowed to estimate the distribution of SARS-CoV-2 proteins in the host cell. Interactome built around one single viral protein allowed to define a different response, underlining as ORF8 and ORF3a modulated cardiovascular diseases and pro-inflammatory pathways, respectively. Finally, the network-based approach highlighted a possible direct action of ORF3a and NS7b to enhancing Bradykinin Storm. This network-based representation of SARS-CoV-2 infection could be a framework for pathogenic evaluation of specific 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; clinical outcomes.
