Abstract: The effects of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), members of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) family, in endometrial cancer (EC) have yet to be determined. In this study, we analyzed the TCGA and MSK-IMPACT datasets and investigated the effects of BMP2 and of TWSG1, a BMP antagonist, on Ishikawa EC cells. Frequent ACVR1 mutations and high mRNA expressions of BMP ligands and receptors were observed in EC patients of the TCGA and MSK-IMPACT datasets. Ishikawa cells secreted higher amounts of BMP2 compared with ovarian cancer cell lines. Exogenous BMP2 stimulation enhanced EC cell sphere formation via c-KIT induction. BMP2 also induced EMT of EC cells, and promoted migration by induction of SLUG. The BMP receptor kinase inhibitor LDN193189 augmented the growth inhibitory effects of carboplatin. Analyses of mRNAs of several BMP antagonists revealed that TWSG1 mRNA was abundantly expressed in Ishikawa cells. -

Amh) Relative to Sox9a, Sox9b, and Cyp19a1a, During Gonad Development
Gene Expression Patterns 5 (2005) 655–667 www.elsevier.com/locate/modgep Characterization and expression pattern of zebrafish anti-Mu¨llerian hormone (amh) relative to sox9a, sox9b, and cyp19a1a, during gonad development Adriana Rodrı´guez-Marı´, Yi-Lin Yan, Ruth A. BreMiller, Catherine Wilson, Cristian Can˜estro, John H. Postlethwait* Institute of Neuroscience, University of Oregon, 1425 E. 13th Avenue, Eugene, OR 97403, USA Received 28 January 2005; received in revised form 28 February 2005; accepted 28 February 2005 Available online 19 April 2005 Abstract The role of Anti-Mu¨llerian hormone (Amh) during gonad development has been studied extensively in mammals, but is less well understood in other vertebrates. In male mammalian embryos, Sox9 activates expression of Amh, which initiates the regression of the Mu¨llerian ducts and inhibits the expression of aromatase (Cyp19a1), the enzyme that converts androgens to estrogens. To better understand shared features of vertebrate gonadogenesis, we cloned amh cDNA from zebrafish, characterized its genomic structure, mapped it, analyzed conserved syntenies, studied its expression pattern in embryos, larvae, juveniles, and adults, and compared it to the expression patterns of sox9a, sox9b and cyp19a1a. We found that the onset of amh expression occurred while gonads were still undifferentiated and sox9a and cyp19a1a were already expressed. In differentiated gonads of juveniles, amh showed a sexually dimorphic expression pattern. In 31 days post-fertilization juveniles, testes expressed amh and sox9a, but not cyp19a1a, while ovaries expressed cyp19a1a and sox9b, but not amh.In adult testes, amh and sox9a were expressed in presumptive Sertoli cells. In adult ovaries, amh and cyp19a1a were expressed in granulosa cells surrounding the oocytes, and sox9b was expressed in a complementary fashion in the ooplasm of oocytes. -

Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia: Diagnosis and Management From
REVIEW ARTICLE Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia: Ferrata Storti diagnosis and management from Foundation the hematologist’s perspective Athena Kritharis,1 Hanny Al-Samkari2 and David J Kuter2 1Division of Blood Disorders, Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey, New Brunswick, NJ and 2Hematology Division, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA ABSTRACT Haematologica 2018 Volume 103(9):1433-1443 ereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), also known as Osler- Weber-Rendu syndrome, is an autosomal dominant disorder that Hcauses abnormal blood vessel formation. The diagnosis of hered- itary hemorrhagic telangiectasia is clinical, based on the Curaçao criteria. Genetic mutations that have been identified include ENG, ACVRL1/ALK1, and MADH4/SMAD4, among others. Patients with HHT may have telangiectasias and arteriovenous malformations in various organs and suffer from many complications including bleeding, anemia, iron deficiency, and high-output heart failure. Families with the same mutation exhibit considerable phenotypic variation. Optimal treatment is best delivered via a multidisciplinary approach with appropriate diag- nosis, screening and local and/or systemic management of lesions. Antiangiogenic agents such as bevacizumab have emerged as a promis- ing systemic therapy in reducing bleeding complications but are not cur- ative. Other pharmacological agents include iron supplementation, antifibrinolytics and hormonal treatment. This review discusses the biol- ogy of HHT, management issues that face
