Histone Isoform H2A1H Promotes Attainment of Distinct Physiological
Bhattacharya et al. Epigenetics & Chromatin (2017) 10:48 DOI 10.1186/s13072-017-0155-z Epigenetics & Chromatin RESEARCH Open Access Histone isoform H2A1H promotes attainment of distinct physiological states by altering chromatin dynamics Saikat Bhattacharya1,4,6, Divya Reddy1,4, Vinod Jani5†, Nikhil Gadewal3†, Sanket Shah1,4, Raja Reddy2,4, Kakoli Bose2,4, Uddhavesh Sonavane5, Rajendra Joshi5 and Sanjay Gupta1,4* Abstract Background: The distinct functional efects of the replication-dependent histone H2A isoforms have been dem- onstrated; however, the mechanistic basis of the non-redundancy remains unclear. Here, we have investigated the specifc functional contribution of the histone H2A isoform H2A1H, which difers from another isoform H2A2A3 in the identity of only three amino acids. Results: H2A1H exhibits varied expression levels in diferent normal tissues and human cancer cell lines (H2A1C in humans). It also promotes cell proliferation in a context-dependent manner when exogenously overexpressed. To uncover the molecular basis of the non-redundancy, equilibrium unfolding of recombinant H2A1H-H2B dimer was performed. We found that the M51L alteration at the H2A–H2B dimer interface decreases the temperature of melting of H2A1H-H2B by ~ 3 °C as compared to the H2A2A3-H2B dimer. This diference in the dimer stability is also refected in the chromatin dynamics as H2A1H-containing nucleosomes are more stable owing to M51L and K99R substitu- tions. Molecular dynamic simulations suggest that these substitutions increase the number of hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions of H2A1H, enabling it to form more stable nucleosomes. Conclusion: We show that the M51L and K99R substitutions, besides altering the stability of histone–histone and histone–DNA complexes, have the most prominent efect on cell proliferation, suggesting that the nucleosome sta- bility is intimately linked with the physiological efects observed. -
THE ROLE of HOMEODOMAIN TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR IRX5 in CARDIAC CONTRACTILITY and HYPERTROPHIC RESPONSE by © COPYRIGHT by KYOUNG H
THE ROLE OF HOMEODOMAIN TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR IRX5 IN CARDIAC CONTRACTILITY AND HYPERTROPHIC RESPONSE By KYOUNG HAN KIM A THESIS SUBMITTED IN CONFORMITY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE DEPARTMENT OF PHYSIOLOGY UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO © COPYRIGHT BY KYOUNG HAN KIM (2011) THE ROLE OF HOMEODOMAIN TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR IRX5 IN CARDIAC CONTRACTILITY AND HYPERTROPHIC RESPONSE KYOUNG HAN KIM DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE DEPARTMENT OF PHYSIOLOGY UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO 2011 ABSTRACT Irx5 is a homeodomain transcription factor that negatively regulates cardiac fast transient + outward K currents (Ito,f) via the KV4.2 gene and is thereby a major determinant of the transmural repolarization gradient. While Ito,f is invariably reduced in heart disease and changes in Ito,f can modulate both cardiac contractility and hypertrophy, less is known about a functional role of Irx5, and its relationship with Ito,f, in the normal and diseased heart. Here I show that Irx5 plays crucial roles in the regulation of cardiac contractility and proper adaptive hypertrophy. Specifically, Irx5-deficient (Irx5-/-) hearts had reduced cardiac contractility and lacked the normal regional difference in excitation-contraction with decreased action potential duration, Ca2+ transients and myocyte shortening in sub-endocardial, but not sub-epicardial, myocytes. In addition, Irx5-/- mice showed less cardiac hypertrophy, but increased interstitial fibrosis and greater contractility impairment following pressure overload. A defect in hypertrophic responses in Irx5-/- myocardium was confirmed in cultured neonatal mouse ventricular myocytes, exposed to norepinephrine while being restored with Irx5 replacement. Interestingly, studies using mice ii -/- virtually lacking Ito,f (i.e. KV4.2-deficient) showed that reduced contractility in Irx5 mice was completely restored by loss of KV4.2, whereas hypertrophic responses to pressure-overload in hearts remained impaired when both Irx5 and Ito,f were absent. -
Identification of a Novel CHN1 P.(Phe213val) Variant in a Large Han Chinese Family with Congenital Duane Retraction Syndrome
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Identifcation of a novel CHN1 p.(Phe213Val) variant in a large Han Chinese family with congenital Duane retraction syndrome Tai‑Cheng Zhou1,3, Wen‑Hua Duan1,3, Xiao‑Lin Fu2,3, Qin Zhu1, Li‑Yun Guo1, Yuan Zhou1, Zhi‑Juan Hua1, Xue‑Jiao Li1, Dong‑Mei Yang1, Jie‑Ying Zhang1, Jie Yin1, Xiao‑Fan Zhang1, Guang‑Long Zhou1 & Min Hu1* Duane retraction syndrome (DRS) is a neuromuscular dysfunction of the eyes. Although many causative genes of DRS have been identifed in Europe and the United States, few reports have been published in regard to Chinese DRS. The aim of the present study was to explore the genetic defect of DRS in a Chinese family. Exome sequencing was used to identify the disease‑causing gene for the two afected family members. Ophthalmic and physical examinations, as well as genetic screenings for variants in chimerin 1 (CHN1), were performed for all family members. Functional analyses of a CHN1 variant in 293T cells included a Rac‑GTP activation assay, α2‑chimaerin translocation assay, and co‑immunoprecipitation assay. Genetic analysis revealed a NM_001822.7: c.637T > G variant in the CHN1 gene, which resulted in the substitution of a highly conserved C1 domain with valine at codon 213 (NP_001813.1: p.(Phe213Val)) (ClinVar Accession Number: SCV001335305). In-silico analysis revealed that the p.(Phe213Val) substitution afected the protein stability and connections among the amino acids of CHN1 in terms of its tertiary protein structure. Functional studies indicated that the p.(Phe213Val) substitution reduced Rac‑GTP activity and enhanced membrane translocation in response to phorbol‑myristoyl acetate (PMA). -

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. -
Differences for Ectopic Versus Eutopic Cells
556 RBMO VOLUME 39 ISSUE 4 2019 ARTICLE Chemosensitivity and chemoresistance in endometriosis – differences for ectopic versus eutopic cells BIOGRAPHY Andres Salumets is Professor of Reproductive Medicine at the University of Tartu, and Scientific Head at the Competence Centre on Health Technologies, Tartu, Estonia. He has been involved in assisted reproduction for 20 years, first as an embryologist and later as a researcher. His major interests are endometriosis, endometrial biology and implantation. Darja Lavogina1,2,*, Külli Samuel1, Arina Lavrits1,3, Alvin Meltsov1, Deniss Sõritsa1,4,5, Ülle Kadastik6, Maire Peters1,4, Ago Rinken2, Andres Salumets1,4,7, 8 KEY MESSAGE Akt/PKB inhibitor GSK690693, CK2 inhibitor ARC-775, MAPK pathway inhibitor sorafenib, proteasome inhibitor bortezomib, and microtubule-depolymerizing toxin MMAE showed higher cytotoxicity in eutopic cells. In contrast, 10 µmol/l of the anthracycline toxin doxorubicin caused cellular death in ectopic cells more effectively than in eutopic cells, underlining the potential of doxorubicin in endometriosis research. ABSTRACT Research question: Endometriosis is a common gynaecological disease defined by the presence of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterus. This complex disease, often accompanied by severe pain and infertility, causes a significant medical and socioeconomic burden; hence, novel strategies are being sought for the treatment of endometriosis. Here, we set out to explore the cytotoxic effects of a panel of compounds to find toxins with different efficiency in eutopic versus ectopic cells, thus highlighting alterations in the corresponding molecular pathways. Design: The effect on cellular viability of 14 compounds was established in a cohort of paired eutopic and ectopic endometrial stromal cell samples from 11 patients. -
DNA Methylation Changes in Down Syndrome Derived Neural Ipscs Uncover Co-Dysregulation of ZNF and HOX3 Families of Transcription
Laan et al. Clinical Epigenetics (2020) 12:9 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13148-019-0803-1 RESEARCH Open Access DNA methylation changes in Down syndrome derived neural iPSCs uncover co- dysregulation of ZNF and HOX3 families of transcription factors Loora Laan1†, Joakim Klar1†, Maria Sobol1, Jan Hoeber1, Mansoureh Shahsavani2, Malin Kele2, Ambrin Fatima1, Muhammad Zakaria1, Göran Annerén1, Anna Falk2, Jens Schuster1 and Niklas Dahl1* Abstract Background: Down syndrome (DS) is characterized by neurodevelopmental abnormalities caused by partial or complete trisomy of human chromosome 21 (T21). Analysis of Down syndrome brain specimens has shown global epigenetic and transcriptional changes but their interplay during early neurogenesis remains largely unknown. We differentiated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) established from two DS patients with complete T21 and matched euploid donors into two distinct neural stages corresponding to early- and mid-gestational ages. Results: Using the Illumina Infinium 450K array, we assessed the DNA methylation pattern of known CpG regions and promoters across the genome in trisomic neural iPSC derivatives, and we identified a total of 500 stably and differentially methylated CpGs that were annotated to CpG islands of 151 genes. The genes were enriched within the DNA binding category, uncovering 37 factors of importance for transcriptional regulation and chromatin structure. In particular, we observed regional epigenetic changes of the transcription factor genes ZNF69, ZNF700 and ZNF763 as well as the HOXA3, HOXB3 and HOXD3 genes. A similar clustering of differential methylation was found in the CpG islands of the HIST1 genes suggesting effects on chromatin remodeling. Conclusions: The study shows that early established differential methylation in neural iPSC derivatives with T21 are associated with a set of genes relevant for DS brain development, providing a novel framework for further studies on epigenetic changes and transcriptional dysregulation during T21 neurogenesis. -

These authors contributed equally to the work. y Received: 22 June 2020; Accepted: 24 August 2020; Published: 26 August 2020 Abstract: Forkhead box protein M1 (FOXM1) is a key transcription factor (TF) that regulates a common set of genes related to the cell cycle in various cell types. However, the mechanism by which FOXM1 controls the common gene set in different cellular contexts is unclear. In this study, a comprehensive meta-analysis of genome-wide FOXM1 binding sites in ECC-1, GM12878, K562, MCF-7, and SK-N-SH cell lines was conducted to predict FOXM1-driven gene regulation. Consistent with previous studies, different TF binding motifs were identified at FOXM1 binding sites, while the NFY binding motif was found at 81% of common FOXM1 binding sites in promoters of cell cycle-related genes.
