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. -

Abbreviations ERAD, ER-associated degradation; OST, oligosacharyltransferase; TM, transmembrane; UIM, ubiquitin-interacting motif. Abstract The Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)-resident intramembrane rhomboid protease RHBDL4 generates metastable protein fragments and together with the ER-associated degradation (ERAD) machinery provides a clearance mechanism for aberrant and surplus proteins. However, the endogenous substrate spectrum and with that the role of RHBDL4 in physiological ERAD is mainly unknown. Here, we use a substrate trapping approach in combination with quantitative proteomics to identify physiological RHBDL4 substrates. This revealed oligosacharyltransferase (OST) complex subunits such as the catalytic active subunit STT3A as substrates for the RHBDL4-dependent ERAD pathway. RHBDL4-catalyzed cleavage inactivates OST subunits by triggering dislocation into the cytoplasm and subsequent proteasomal degradation. -
New Insights from Elucidating the Role of LMP1 in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

Cooper 2 ID 1 Cancer Virology Program, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, USA; [email protected] 2 Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics, and Center for Evolutionary Biology and Medicine, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA 15219, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-412-623-7717 Received: 3 March 2018; Accepted: 20 March 2018; Published: 21 March 2018 Abstract: Latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) is an Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) oncogenic protein that has no intrinsic enzymatic activity or sequence homology to cellular or viral proteins. The oncogenic potential of LMP1 has been ascribed to pleiotropic signaling properties initiated through protein-protein interactions in cytosolic membrane compartments, but the effects of LMP1 extend to nuclear and extracellular processes. Although LMP1 is one of the latent genes required for EBV-immortalization of B cells, the biology of LMP1 in the pathogenesis of the epithelial cancer nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is more complex. NPC is prevalent in specific regions of the world with high incidence in southeast China. The epidemiology and time interval from seroconversion to NPC onset in adults would suggest the involvement of multiple risk factors that complement the establishment of a latent and persistent EBV infection. The contribution of LMP1 to EBV pathogenesis in polarized epithelia has only recently begun to be elucidated. Furthermore, the LMP1 gene has emerged as one of the most divergent sequences in the EBV genome. -

The genetic contribution to human T2D and related metabolic disorders is evident, and mostly follows polygenic inheritance. The TALLYHO/ JngJ (TH) mice are a polygenic model for T2D characterized by obesity, hyperinsulinemia, impaired glucose uptake and tolerance, hyperlipidemia, and hyperglycemia. -

Abstract The high mortality rate of gastric cancer (GC) is in part due to the absence of initial disclosure of its biomarkers. The recognition of important genes associated in GC is therefore recommended to advance clinical prognosis, diagnosis and and treatment outcomes. The current investigation used the microarray dataset GSE113255 RNA seq data from the Gene Expression Omnibus database to diagnose differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Pathway and gene ontology enrichment analyses were performed, and a proteinprotein interaction network, modules, target genes - miRNA regulatory network and target genes - TF regulatory network were constructed and analyzed. Finally, validation of hub genes was performed. The 1008 DEGs identified consisted of 505 up regulated genes and 503 down regulated genes. -

Glycan Engineering for Cell and Developmental Biology Matthew E. Griffin1 and Linda C. Hsieh-Wilson1,* 1Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA Abstract Cell-surface glycans are a diverse class of macromolecules that participate in many key biological processes, including cell-cell communication, development, and disease progression. Thus, the ability to modulate the structures of glycans on cell surfaces provides a powerful means not only to understand fundamental processes but also to direct activity and elicit desired cellular responses. Here, we describe methods to sculpt glycans on cell surfaces and highlight recent successes in which artificially engineered glycans have been employed to control biological outcomes such as the immune response and stem cell fate. Introduction Cell-surface glycans participate in many important processes throughout the lifespan of an organism, ranging from cell migration and tissue patterning to the immune response, disease progression, and cell death (Fuster and Esko, 2005; Häcker et al., 2005; Lichtenstein and Rabinovich, 2013; van Kooyk and Rabinovich, 2008). At a molecular level, glycans are often the first points of contact between cells, and they function by facilitating a variety of interactions both in cis (on the same cell) and in trans (on different cells). -

Any disturbances in the T/DHT ratio in male progeny born from females fertilized by finasteride-treated male rats (F0:Fin) can result in the impairment of testicular physiology. The goal of this work was to profile the testicular transcriptome in the male filial generation (F1:Fin) from paternal F0:Fin rats. (2) Methods: The subject material for the study were testis from immature and mature male rats born from females fertilized by finasteride-treated rats. Testicular tissues from the offspring were used in microarray analyses. (3) Results: The top 10 genes having the highest and lowest fold change values were mainly those that encoded odoriferous (Olfr: 31, 331, 365, 633, 774, 814, 890, 935, 1109, 1112, 1173, 1251, 1259, 1253, 1383) Citation: Kolasa, A.; Rogi´nska,D.; Vmn1r 50 103 210 211 Vmn2r 3 23 99 RIKEN cDNA 5430402E10 Rzeszotek, S.; Machali´nski,B.; and vomeronasal ( : , , , ; : , , ) receptors and , Wiszniewska, B.
