The predominant mecha‑ nism underlying MDR is an increase in the activity of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent drug efux trans‑ porters. Sulbactam, a β-lactamase inhibitor, is generally combined with β-lactam antibiotics for treating bacterial infections. However, sulbactam alone can be used to treat Acinetobacter baumannii infections because it inhibits the expression of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter proteins. This is the frst study to report the efects of sulbactam on mammalian cells. Methods: We used the breast cancer cell lines as a model system to determine whether sulbactam afects cancer cells. The cell viabilities in the present of doxorubicin with or without sulbactam were measured by MTT assay. Protein identities and the changes in protein expression levels in the cells after sulbactam and doxorubicin treatment were determined using LC–MS/MS. Real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (real-time RT-PCR) was used to analyze the change in mRNA expression levels of ABC transporters after treatment of doxorubicin with or without sulbactam. The efux of doxorubicin was measures by the doxorubicin efux assay. Results: MTT assay revealed that sulbactam enhanced the cytotoxicity of doxorubicin in breast cancer cells. The results of proteomics showed that ABC transporter proteins and proteins associated with the process of transcription and initiation of translation were reduced.

Integral to this tool are the \seq2gene" and \gene2pathway" components in series that infer a quantitative pathway-level profile for each sample. The seq2gene function assigns phenotype-associated significance of genomic regions to gene-level scores, where the significance could be p-values of SNPs or point mutations, protein-binding affinity, or transcriptional expression level. The seq2gene function has the feasibility to assign non-exon regions to a range of neighboring genes besides the nearest one, thus facilitating the study of functional non-coding elements[2]. Then the gene2pathway summarizes gene-level measurements to pathway-level scores, comparing the quantity of significance for gene members within a pathway with those outside a pathway.

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.

  • Why Cells and Viruses Cannot Survive Without an ESCRT
    cells Review Why Cells and Viruses Cannot Survive without an ESCRT Arianna Calistri * , Alberto Reale, Giorgio Palù and Cristina Parolin Department of Molecular Medicine, University of Padua, 35121 Padua, Italy; [email protected] (A.R.); [email protected] (G.P.); [email protected] (C.P.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Intracellular organelles enwrapped in membranes along with a complex network of vesicles trafficking in, out and inside the cellular environment are one of the main features of eukaryotic cells. Given their central role in cell life, compartmentalization and mechanisms allowing their maintenance despite continuous crosstalk among different organelles have been deeply investigated over the past years. Here, we review the multiple functions exerted by the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery in driving membrane remodeling and fission, as well as in repairing physiological and pathological membrane damages. In this way, ESCRT machinery enables different fundamental cellular processes, such as cell cytokinesis, biogenesis of organelles and vesicles, maintenance of nuclear–cytoplasmic compartmentalization, endolysosomal activity. Furthermore, we discuss some examples of how viruses, as obligate intracellular parasites, have evolved to hijack the ESCRT machinery or part of it to execute/optimize their replication cycle/infection. A special emphasis is given to the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) interaction with the ESCRT proteins, considering the peculiarities of this interplay and the need for HSV-1 to cross both the nuclear-cytoplasmic and the cytoplasmic-extracellular environment compartmentalization to egress from infected cells.

  • Cogps:Cancer Outlier Gene Profile Sets
    coGPS:Cancer Outlier Gene Profile Sets Yingying Wei, Michael Ochs April 24, 2017 1 Introduction Generation of high-throughput genomic data has become routine in modern bi- ology. While the focus remains in many cases on the identification of molecular species, such as mRNA transcripts, that differ between two conditions, the data is often of great interest for elucidating differences in pathway activity. Standard algorithms, such as limma [Smyth 2004]and SAM [Tusher , Tibshirani and Chu 2001], are widely used for identifying transcripts (hereon referred to genes) that dif- fer statistically between two groups. Later, as multiple datasets became avail- able on the same biological process, people began to combine information from multiple studies to improve the power of statistical analysis in each study [Conlon, Song and Liu 2006], [Kendziorski et al. 2003], [Yuan and Kendziorski 2006], [Cui et al. 2005], and [Scharpf et al. 2009]. It is often the case in cancer studies that the identification of important genes by these approaches fails. The realization that genes are often disregulated in only a subset of tumors led to the development of Cancer Outlier Profile Analysis (COPA) [MacDonald, 2006]. Outlier genes are defined to be ones that are over- or under- expressed in a subset of tumor samples compared to normal samples. The difference between outlier differential expressed gene and normal differen- tial expressed gene is that outlier gene may have the same level of expression in majority of tumor samples as that of normals. A few statistics for finding outlier genes have been proposed [MacDonald, 2006], [Tibshirani, R. and Hastie, 2007], and [Wu, 2007].
