Methods: The systematic review was carried out via a comprehensive search of electronic databases for all relevant articles published up to September 2017. Specific key words were used to retrieve the articles. All articles were imported into EndNote software while duplicates were removed from the list. The retrieved articles were selected using inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: FK228, a novel HDACi and FR235222, increased expression of ANXA1 in Kasumi-1, SKNO-1 and U937 cells, respectively, and induced apoptosis. The study also neutralized ANXA1 in the same cells, which caused a complete blockage of the FK228-induced apoptosis. Resveratrol was reported to markedly increase ANXA1 levels which led to caspase 3-mediated apoptosis on HL-60 cells. Dexamethasone, 17β-estradiol (E2β), all-trans retinoic acid and okadaic acid enhanced ANXA1 mRNA expression in U937, human CCRF-CEM, ATRA-NB4 and HL-60 cell lines. Rp-8-Br-cAMPs prevented dexamethasone-, E2β- and dBcAMP-induced ANXA1 synthesis via the activation of cAMP-respond- element binding protein (CREB). ANXA1 levels were reduced dramatically in K562/ADR cells as compared to K562 cells. When ANXA1 was upregulated by transfection in these cells, the cells exhibited a decrease in resistance to ADR and vincristine. Conclusion: ANXA1 expression is induced by different drugs which leads to apoptosis in different types of cell. ANXA1 plays a role in the drug resistance of leukemic cells.

Abstract: Prothymosin alpha (ProTα) and S100A13 are released from C6 glioma cells under serum- free conditions via membrane tethering mediated by Ca2+-dependent interactions between S100A13 and p40 synaptotagmin-1 (Syt-1), which is further associated with plasma membrane syntaxin-1 (Stx-1). The present study revealed that S100A13 interacted with annexin A2 (ANXA2) and this interaction was enhanced by Ca2+ and p40 Syt-1. Amlexanox (Amx) inhibited the association between S100A13 and ANXA2 in C6 glioma cells cultured under serum-free conditions in the in situ proximity ligation assay. In the absence of Amx, however, the serum-free stress results in a flop-out of ANXA2 Citation: Matsunaga, H.; Halder, through the membrane, without the extracellular release.

  • Calreticulin—Multifunctional Chaperone in Immunogenic Cell Death: Potential Significance As a Prognostic Biomarker in Ovarian

Chemotherapeutics, radiotherapy and photodynamic therapy induce intracellular stress response pathways in tumor cells, leading to a secretion of various factors belonging to a family of damage-associated molecular patterns molecules, capable of inducing the adaptive immune response. One of them is calreticulin (CRT), an endoplasmic reticulum-associated chaperone. Its presence on the surface of dying tumor cells serves as an “eat me” signal for antigen presenting cells (APC). Engulfment of tumor cells by APCs results in the presentation of tumor’s antigens to cytotoxic T-cells and production of cytokines/chemokines, which activate immune cells responsible for tumor cells killing. Thus, the development of ICD and the expression of CRT can help standard therapy to eradicate tumor cells. Here, we review the physiological functions of CRT and its involvement in the ICD appearance in malignant dis- ease. Moreover, we also focus on the ability of various anti-cancer drugs to induce expression of surface CRT on ovarian cancer cells. The second aim of this work is to discuss and summarize the prognostic/predictive value of CRT in ovarian cancer patients.

Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd doi:10.1242/jcs.076208 Summary Remodelling of the actin cytoskeleton plays a key role in particle internalisation and the phagosome maturation processes. Actin- binding proteins (ABPs) are the main players in actin remodelling but the precise role of these proteins in phagocytosis needs to be clarified. Annexins, a group of ABPs, are known to be present on phagosomes. Here, we identified annexin A1 as a factor that binds to isolated latex bead phagosomes (LBPs) in the presence of Ca2+ and facilitates the F-actin–LBP interaction in vitro. In macrophages the association of endogenous annexin A1 with LBP membranes was strongly correlated with the spatial and temporal accumulation of F-actin at the LBP. Annexin A1 was found on phagocytic cups and around early phagosomes, where the F-actin was prominently concentrated. After uptake was completed, annexin A1, along with F-actin, dissociated from the nascent LBP surface. At later stages of phagocytosis annexin A1 transiently concentrated only around those LBPs that showed transient F-actin accumulation (‘actin flashing’).

The under- lying mechanisms, however, remain only partly understood. In an effort to identify possible mechanisms, we compared the pro- teome of pancreatic cancer with matched normal pancreas and observed diminished protein levels of gelsolin—an actin fila- ment severing and capping protein of crucial importance for maintaining cytoskeletal integrity—in pancreatic cancer. Additionally, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas displayed substantially decreased levels of gelsolin as judged by Western blot and immunohistochemical analyses of tissue micoarrays, when compared with cancerous and untransformed tissue from the same patients (P < 0.05). Importantly, no marked downregulation of gelsolin mRNA was observed (P > 0.05), suggesting that post- transcriptional mechanisms mediate low gelsolin protein levels. In apparent agreement, high activity ubiquitin-proteasome path- way in both patient samples and the BxPC-3 pancreatic cancer cell line was detected, and inhibition of the 26s proteasome sys- tem quickly restored gelsolin protein levels in the latter cell line.

  • Improved Calcium Sensor Gcamp-X Overcomes the Calcium Channel Perturbations Induced by the Calmodulin in Gcamp
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-03719-6 OPEN Improved calcium sensor GCaMP-X overcomes the calcium channel perturbations induced by the calmodulin in GCaMP Yaxiong Yang 1,2,3,4, Nan Liu1,7, Yuanyuan He1, Yuxia Liu1, Lin Ge1, Linzhi Zou5, Sen Song1,4, Wei Xiong4,5 & Xiaodong Liu 1,2,3,4,5,6 2+ 1234567890():,; GCaMP, one popular type of genetically-encoded Ca indicator, has been associated with various side-effects. Here we unveil the intrinsic problem prevailing over different versions and applications, showing that GCaMP containing CaM (calmodulin) interferes with both gating and signaling of L-type calcium channels (CaV1). GCaMP acts as an impaired apoCaM 2+ 2+ and Ca /CaM, both critical to CaV1, which disrupts Ca dynamics and gene expression. We then design and implement GCaMP-X, by incorporating an extra apoCaM-binding motif, effectively protecting CaV1-dependent excitation–transcription coupling from perturbations. GCaMP-X resolves the problems of detrimental nuclear accumulation, acute and chronic Ca2+ dysregulation, and aberrant transcription signaling and cell morphogenesis, while still demonstrating excellent Ca2+-sensing characteristics partly inherited from GCaMP. In summary, CaM/CaV1 gating and signaling mechanisms are elucidated for GCaMP side- effects, while allowing the development of GCaMP-X to appropriately monitor cytosolic, submembrane or nuclear Ca2+, which is also expected to guide the future design of CaM- based molecular tools. 1 Department of Biomedical Engineering, School of Medicine, X-Lab for Transmembrane Signaling Research, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China. 2 School of Biological Science and Medical Engineering, Beihang University, Beijing 100083, China. 3 Beijing Advanced Innovation Center for Biomedical Engineering, Beihang University, Beijing 102402, China.

Several extracellular factors are involved in its development and metastasis to distant organs. In PC, the protein Annexin A1 (ANXA1) appears to be overexpressed and may be identified as an oncogenic factor, also because it is a component in tumor-deriving extracellular vesicles (EVs). Indeed, these microvesicles are known to nourish the tumor microenvironment. Once we evaluated the autocrine role of ANXA1-containing EVs on PC MIA PaCa-2 cells and their pro-angiogenic action, we investigated the ANXA1 paracrine effect on stromal cells like fibroblasts and endothelial ones.
