    Supplemental information to Mammadova-Bach et al., “Laminin α1 orchestrates VEGFA functions in the ecosystem of colorectal carcinogenesis” Supplemental material and methods Cloning of the villin-LMα1 vector The plasmid pBS-villin-promoter containing the 3.5 Kb of the murine villin promoter, the first non coding exon, 5.5 kb of the first intron and 15 nucleotides of the second villin exon, was generated by S. Robine (Institut Curie, Paris, France). The EcoRI site in the multi cloning site was destroyed by fill in ligation with T4 polymerase according to the manufacturer`s instructions (New England Biolabs, Ozyme, Saint Quentin en Yvelines, France). Site directed mutagenesis (GeneEditor in vitro Site-Directed Mutagenesis system, Promega, Charbonnières-les-Bains, France) was then used to introduce a BsiWI site before the start codon of the villin coding sequence using the 5’ phosphorylated primer: 5’CCTTCTCCTCTAGGCTCGCGTACGATGACGTCGGACTTGCGG3’. A double strand annealed oligonucleotide, 5’GGCCGGACGCGTGAATTCGTCGACGC3’ and 5’GGCCGCGTCGACGAATTCACGC GTCC3’ containing restriction site for MluI, EcoRI and SalI were inserted in the NotI site (present in the multi cloning site), generating the plasmid pBS-villin-promoter-MES. The SV40 polyA region of the pEGFP plasmid (Clontech, Ozyme, Saint Quentin Yvelines, France) was amplified by PCR using primers 5’GGCGCCTCTAGATCATAATCAGCCATA3’ and 5’GGCGCCCTTAAGATACATTGATGAGTT3’ before subcloning into the pGEMTeasy vector (Promega, Charbonnières-les-Bains, France). After EcoRI digestion, the SV40 polyA fragment was purified with the NucleoSpin Extract II kit (Machery-Nagel, Hoerdt, France) and then subcloned into the EcoRI site of the plasmid pBS-villin-promoter-MES. Site directed mutagenesis was used to introduce a BsiWI site (5’ phosphorylated AGCGCAGGGAGCGGCGGCCGTACGATGCGCGGCAGCGGCACG3’) before the initiation codon and a MluI site (5’ phosphorylated 1 CCCGGGCCTGAGCCCTAAACGCGTGCCAGCCTCTGCCCTTGG3’) after the stop codon in the full length cDNA coding for the mouse LMα1 in the pCIS vector (kindly provided by P.

  • Denosumab Versus Romosozumab for Postmenopausal Osteoporosis Treatment
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Denosumab versus romosozumab for postmenopausal osteoporosis treatment Tomonori Kobayakawa1, Akiko Miyazaki2, Makoto Saito3, Takako Suzuki2,4, Jun Takahashi2 & Yukio Nakamura2* Denosumab and romosozumab, a recently approved new drug, are efective and widely known molecular-targeted drugs for postmenopausal osteoporosis treatment. However, no studies have directly compared their therapeutic efects or safety in postmenopausal osteoporosis. This retrospective observational registry study compared the efcacy of 12-month denosumab or romosozumab treatment in postmenopausal osteoporosis patients. The primary outcome was the change in bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine. Secondary outcomes included BMD changes at the total hip and femoral neck, changes in bone turnover markers, and adverse events. Propensity score matching was employed to assemble patient groups with similar baseline characteristics. Sixty-nine patients each received either denosumab or romosozumab for 12 months. The mean 12-month percentage change from baseline in lumbar spine BMD was 7.2% in the denosumab group and 12.5% in the romosozumab group, indicating a signifcant diference between the groups. The percentage changes in BMD at both the total hip and femoral neck were also signifcantly higher at 12 months in the romosozumab group than in the denosumab group. In denosumab patients, bone formation and bone resorption markers were signifcantly decreased at 6 and 12 months from baseline. In the romosozumab group, the bone formation marker was signifcantly increased at 6 months and then returned to baseline, while the bone resorption marker was signifcantly decreased at both time points. Adverse events were few and predominantly minor in both groups, with no remarkable diference in the incidence of new vertebral fractures.

  • Anti-Sclerostin Antibody Inhibits Internalization of Sclerostin and Sclerostin-Mediated Antagonism of Wnt/ LRP6 Signaling
    Anti-Sclerostin Antibody Inhibits Internalization of Sclerostin and Sclerostin-Mediated Antagonism of Wnt/ LRP6 Signaling Maarten van Dinther1, Juan Zhang1, Stella E. Weidauer2, Verena Boschert2, Eva-Maria Muth2, Achim Knappik3, David J. J. de Gorter1, Puck B. van Kasteren1¤, Christian Frisch3, Thomas D. Mueller2, Peter ten Dijke1* 1 Department of Molecular Cell Biology and Centre for Biomedical Genetics, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, The Netherlands, 2 Department of Molecular Plant Physiology and Biophysics, Julius-von-Sachs Institut, Wuerzburg, Germany, 3 AbD Serotec, a Bio-Rad company, Puchheim, Germany Abstract Sclerosteosis is a rare high bone mass disease that is caused by inactivating mutations in the SOST gene. Its gene product, Sclerostin, is a key negative regulator of bone formation and might therefore serve as a target for the anabolic treatment of osteoporosis. The exact molecular mechanism by which Sclerostin exerts its antagonistic effects on Wnt signaling in bone forming osteoblasts remains unclear. Here we show that Wnt3a-induced transcriptional responses and induction of alkaline phosphatase activity, an early marker of osteoblast differentiation, require the Wnt co-receptors LRP5 and LRP6. Unlike Dickkopf1 (DKK1), Sclerostin does not inhibit Wnt-3a-induced phosphorylation of LRP5 at serine 1503 or LRP6 at serine 1490. Affinity labeling of cell surface proteins with [125I]Sclerostin identified LRP6 as the main specific Sclerostin receptor in multiple mesenchymal cell lines. When cells were challenged with Sclerostin fused to recombinant green fluorescent protein (GFP) this was internalized, likely via a Clathrin-dependent process, and subsequently degraded in a temperature and proteasome-dependent manner. Ectopic expression of LRP6 greatly enhanced binding and cellular uptake of Sclerostin- GFP, which was reduced by the addition of an excess of non-GFP-fused Sclerostin.

  • Increased Bone Mineral Density for 1 Year of Romosozumab, Vs Placebo, Followed by 2 Years of Denosumab in the Japanese Subgroup
    Archives of Osteoporosis (2019) 14:59 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11657-019-0608-z ORIGINAL ARTICLE Increased bone mineral density for 1 year of romosozumab, vs placebo, followed by 2 years of denosumab in the Japanese subgroup of the pivotal FRAME trial and extension Akimitsu Miyauchi1 & Rajani V. Dinavahi2 & Daria B. Crittenden2 & Wenjing Yang2 & Judy C. Maddox2 & Etsuro Hamaya3 & Yoichi Nakamura3 & Cesar Libanati4 & Andreas Grauer2 & Junichiro Shimauchi3 Received: 1 March 2019 /Accepted: 18 May 2019 # The Author(s) 2019 Abstract Summary Romosozumab, which binds sclerostin, rebuilds the skeletal foundation before transitioning to antiresorptive treat- ment. This subgroup analysis of an international, randomized, double-blind study in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis showed efficacy and safety outcomes for romosozumab followed by denosumab in Japanese women were generally consistent with those for the overall population. Purpose In the international, randomized, double-blind, phase 3 FRActure study, in postmenopausal woMen with ostEoporosis (FRAME; NCT01575834), romosozumab followed by denosumab significantly improved bone mineral density (BMD) and reduced fracture risk. This report evaluates Japanese women in FRAME. Methods Postmenopausal women with osteoporosis (T-score − 3.5 to − 2.5 at total hip or femoral neck) received romosozumab 210 mg or placebo subcutaneously monthly for 12 months, then each group received denosumab 60 mg subcutaneously every 6 months for 24 months. The key endpoint for Japanese women was BMD change. Other endpoints included new vertebral, clinical, and nonvertebral fracture; the subgroup analysis did not have adequate power to demonstrate statistically significant reductions. Results Of 7180 enrolled subjects, 492 (6.9%) were Japanese (247 romosozumab, 245 placebo).

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.

    Gergely: Immunfarmakológia Immunfarmakológia Prof Gergely Péter Az immunpatológiai betegségek döntő többsége gyulladásos, és ennek következtében általában szövetpusztulással járó betegség, melyben – jelenleg – a terápia alapvetően a gyulladás csökkentésére és/vagy megszűntetésére irányul. Vannak kizárólag gyulladásgátló gyógyszereink és vannak olyanok, amelyek az immunreakció(k) bénításával (=immunszuppresszió révén) vagy emellett vezetnek a gyulladás mérsékléséhez. Mind szerkezetileg, mind hatástanilag igen sokféle csoportba oszthatók, az alábbi felosztás elsősorban didaktikus célokat szolgál. 1. Nem-szteroid gyulladásgátlók (‘nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs’ NSAID) 2. Kortikoszteroidok 3. Allergia-elleni szerek (antiallergikumok) 4. Sejtoszlás-gátlók (citosztatikumok) 5. Nem citosztatikus hatású immunszuppresszív szerek 6. Egyéb gyulladásgátlók és immunmoduláns szerek 7. Biológiai terápia 1. Nem-szteroid gyulladásgátlók (NSAID) Ezeket a vegyületeket, melyek őse a szalicilsav (jelenleg, mint acetilszalicilsav ‘aszpirin’ használatos), igen kiterjedten alkalmazzák a reumatológiában, az onkológiában és az orvostudomány szinte minden ágában, ahol fájdalom- és lázcsillapításra van szükség. Egyes felmérések szerint a betegek egy ötöde szed valamilyen NSAID készítményt. Szerkezetük alapján a készítményeket több csoportba sorolhatjuk: szalicilátok (pl. acetilszalicilsav) pyrazolidinek (pl. fenilbutazon) ecetsav származékok (pl. indometacin) fenoxiecetsav származékok (pl. diclofenac, aceclofenac)) oxicamok (pl. piroxicam, meloxicam) propionsav
