Chemotherapeutics, radiotherapy and photodynamic therapy induce intracellular stress response pathways in tumor cells, leading to a secretion of various factors belonging to a family of damage-associated molecular patterns molecules, capable of inducing the adaptive immune response. One of them is calreticulin (CRT), an endoplasmic reticulum-associated chaperone. Its presence on the surface of dying tumor cells serves as an “eat me” signal for antigen presenting cells (APC). Engulfment of tumor cells by APCs results in the presentation of tumor’s antigens to cytotoxic T-cells and production of cytokines/chemokines, which activate immune cells responsible for tumor cells killing. Thus, the development of ICD and the expression of CRT can help standard therapy to eradicate tumor cells. Here, we review the physiological functions of CRT and its involvement in the ICD appearance in malignant dis- ease. Moreover, we also focus on the ability of various anti-cancer drugs to induce expression of surface CRT on ovarian cancer cells. The second aim of this work is to discuss and summarize the prognostic/predictive value of CRT in ovarian cancer patients.

  • Detection of Pro Angiogenic and Inflammatory Biomarkers in Patients With
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Detection of pro angiogenic and infammatory biomarkers in patients with CKD Diana Jalal1,2,3*, Bridget Sanford4, Brandon Renner5, Patrick Ten Eyck6, Jennifer Laskowski5, James Cooper5, Mingyao Sun1, Yousef Zakharia7, Douglas Spitz7,9, Ayotunde Dokun8, Massimo Attanasio1, Kenneth Jones10 & Joshua M. Thurman5 Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death in patients with native and post-transplant chronic kidney disease (CKD). To identify new biomarkers of vascular injury and infammation, we analyzed the proteome of plasma and circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) in native and post-transplant CKD patients utilizing an aptamer-based assay. Proteins of angiogenesis were signifcantly higher in native and post-transplant CKD patients versus healthy controls. Ingenuity pathway analysis (IPA) indicated Ephrin receptor signaling, serine biosynthesis, and transforming growth factor-β as the top pathways activated in both CKD groups. Pro-infammatory proteins were signifcantly higher only in the EVs of native CKD patients. IPA indicated acute phase response signaling, insulin-like growth factor-1, tumor necrosis factor-α, and interleukin-6 pathway activation. These data indicate that pathways of angiogenesis and infammation are activated in CKD patients’ plasma and EVs, respectively. The pathways common in both native and post-transplant CKD may signal similar mechanisms of CVD. Approximately one in 10 individuals has chronic kidney disease (CKD) rendering CKD one of the most common diseases worldwide1. CKD is associated with a high burden of morbidity in the form of end stage kidney disease (ESKD) requiring dialysis or transplantation 2. Furthermore, patients with CKD are at signifcantly increased risk of death from cardiovascular disease (CVD)3,4.

By homozygosity mapping, we have identified, in the 5q23–q33 region, a third locus responsible for an autosomal recessive form of demyelinating CMT. Haplotype reconstruction and determination of the minimal region of homozygosity restricted the candidate region to a 4 cM interval. A physical map of the candidate region was established by screening YACs for microsatellites used for genetic analysis. Combined genetic, cytogenetic and physical mapping restricted the locus to a less than 2 Mb interval on chromosome 5q32. Seventeen consanguineous families with demyelinating ARCMT of various origins were screened for linkage to 5q31–q33.

We applied next-generation proteomics to serum extracellular vesicles (EVs) to discover novel COPD biomarkers. EVs from 10 patients with COPD and six healthy controls were analysed by tandem mass tag-based non-targeted proteomics, and those from elastase-treated mouse models of emphysema were also analysed by non-targeted proteomics. For validation, EVs from 23 patients with COPD and 20 healthy controls were validated by targeted proteomics. Using non-targeted proteomics, we identified 406 proteins, 34 of which were significantly upregulated in patients with COPD. Of note, the EV protein signature from patients with COPD reflected inflammation and remodelling. We also identified 63 upregulated candidates from 1956 proteins by analysing EVs isolated from mouse models. Combining human and mouse biomarker candidates, we validated 45 proteins by targeted proteomics, selected reaction monitoring. Notably, levels of fibulin-3, tripeptidyl- peptidase 2, fibulin-1, and soluble scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain-containing protein were significantly higher in patients with COPD.

Glomerular development has been analyzed mainly in mice, whereas analysis of human kidney development has been minimal because of limited access to embryonic kidneys. We previously reported the induction of three-dimensional primordial glomeruli from human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Here, using transcription activator–like effector nuclease-mediated homologous recombination, we generated human iPS cell lines that express green fluorescent protein (GFP) in the NPHS1 locus, which encodes nephrin, and we show that GFP expression facilitated accurate visualization of nephrin-positive podocyte formation in

  • Exophagy of Annexin A2 Via RAB11, RAB8A and RAB27A in IFN-Γ
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Exophagy of annexin A2 via RAB11, RAB8A and RAB27A in IFN-γ- stimulated lung epithelial cells Received: 23 September 2016 Ying-Da Chen1, Yi-Ting Fang2, Yi-Lin Cheng1,2, Chiou-Feng Lin3,4, Li-Jin Hsu1,3,5, Shu-Ying Accepted: 7 June 2017 Wang1,2,3, Robert Anderson3,6, Chih-Peng Chang1,2,3 & Yee-Shin Lin1,2,3 Published: xx xx xxxx Annexin A2 (ANXA2), a phospholipid-binding protein, has multiple biological functions depending on its cellular localization. We previously demonstrated that IFN-γ-triggered ANXA2 secretion is associated with exosomal release. Here, we show that IFN-γ-induced autophagy is essential for the extracellular secretion of ANXA2 in lung epithelial cells. We observed colocalization of ANXA2- containing autophagosomes with multivesicular bodies (MVBs) after IFN-γ stimulation, followed by exosomal release. IFN-γ-induced exophagic release of ANXA2 could not be observed in ATG5-silenced or mutant RAB11-expressing cells. Furthermore, knockdown of RAB8A and RAB27A, but not RAB27B, reduced IFN-γ-triggered ANXA2 secretion. Surface translocation of ANXA2 enhanced efferocytosis by epithelial cells, and inhibition of different exophagic steps, including autophagosome formation, fusion of autophagosomes with MVBs, and fusion of amphisomes with plasma membrane, reduced ANXA2- mediated efferocytosis. Our data reveal a novel route of IFN-γ-induced exophagy of ANXA2. Annexin A2 (ANXA2), a Ca2+-dependent membrane-binding protein, can distribute to the nucleus, the cytosolic membrane of organelles, as well as the inner and outer leaflets of the plasma membrane in different cell types, including macrophages, endothelium, epithelium, and tumor cells1–3.

Currently there is no real therapeutic option for this late stage of disease, and understanding prostate cancer-bone interaction and communication is vital. Using a simple in vitro model of os-teoblast differentiation and mineralization, we studied this interaction and observed that prostate cancer cells secreted large quantities of extracellular vesicles containing microRNAs. When Citation: Lanning, B.; Webber, J.; ex-posed to the extracellular vesicles, increased osteoblast differentiation and mineralization could be Uysal-Onganer, P.; Jiang, W.G.; observed, and upon RNA-seq several of these microRNAs were implicated as upstream regulators of Clayton, A.; Dart, D.A.
