Epithelioid blue nevi and deep penetrating nevi show features of both blue nevi (intradermal location, pigmentation) and Spitz nevi (epithelioid morphology). Epithelioid blue nevi and deep penetrating nevi can also show overlapping features with melanoma, posing a diagnostic challenge. Although epithelioid blue nevi are considered blue nevic variants, no GNAQ or GNA11 mutations have been reported. Classification of deep penetrating nevi as blue nevic variants has also been proposed, however, no GNAQ or GNA11 mutations have been reported and none have been tested for HRAS mutations. To better characterize these tumors, we performed mutational analysis for GNAQ, GNA11, and HRAS, with blue nevi and Spitz nevi as controls. Within deep penetrating nevi, none demonstrated GNAQ or GNA11 mutations (0/38). However, 6% revealed HRAS mutation (2/32). Twenty percent of epithelioid blue nevi contained a GNAQ mutation (2/10), while none displayed GNA11 or HRAS mutation. Eighty-seven percent of blue nevi contained a GNAQ mutation (26/30), 4% a GNA11 mutation (1/28), and none an HRAS mutation.

Elizabeth Patton2,19 and Veronica A. Kinsler1,5,19 Common birthmarks can be an indicator of underlying genetic disease but are often overlooked. Mongolian blue spots (dermal melanocytosis) are usually localized and transient, but they can be extensive, permanent, and associated with extracutaneous abnormalities. Co-occurrence with vascular birthmarks defines a subtype of phakomatosis pigmentovascularis, a group of syndromes associated with neurovascular, ophthalmological, overgrowth, and malignant complications. Here, we discover that extensive dermal melanocytosis and pha- komatosis pigmentovascularis are associated with activating mutations in GNA11 and GNAQ, genes that encode Ga subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins. The mutations were detected at very low levels in affected tissues but were undetectable in the blood, indicating that these conditions are postzygotic mosaic disorders. R183C Q209L In vitro expression of mutant GNA11 and GNA11 in human cell lines demonstrated activation of the downstream p38 MAPK signaling pathway and the p38, JNK, and ERK pathways, respectively. Transgenic R183C mosaic zebrafish models expressing mutant GNA11 under promoter mitfa developed extensive dermal melanocytosis recapitulating the human phenotype. Phakomatosis pigmentovascularis and extensive dermal melanocytosis are therefore diagnoses in the group of mosaic heterotrimeric G-protein disorders, joining McCune-Albright and Sturge-Weber syndromes.

The recent advancement in high-throughput sequencing has facilitated investigations into the role of genetic and epigenetic regulations in hepatocarcinogenesis. Therefore, we used systems biology and big database mining to construct genetic and epigenetic networks (GENs) using the information about mRNA, miRNA, and methylation profiles of HCC patients. Our approach involves analyzing gene regulatory networks (GRNs), protein-protein networks (PPINs), and epigenetic networks at different stages of hepatocarcinogenesis. The core GENs, influencing each stage of HCC, were extracted via principal network projection (PNP). The pathways during different stages of HCC were compared. We observed that extracellular signals were further transduced to

    FARE2021WINNERS Sorted By Institute Swati Shah Postdoctoral Fellow CC Radiology/Imaging/PET and Neuroimaging Characterization of CNS involvement in Ebola-Infected Macaques using Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 18F-FDG PET and Immunohistology The Ebola (EBOV) virus outbreak in Western Africa resulted in residual neurologic abnormalities in survivors. Many case studies detected EBOV in the CSF, suggesting that the neurologic sequelae in survivors is related to viral presence. In the periphery, EBOV infects endothelial cells and triggers a “cytokine stormâ€. However, it is unclear whether a similar process occurs in the brain, with secondary neuroinflammation, neuronal loss and blood-brain barrier (BBB) compromise, eventually leading to lasting neurological damage. We have used in vivo imaging and post-necropsy immunostaining to elucidate the CNS pathophysiology in Rhesus macaques infected with EBOV (Makona). Whole brain MRI with T1 relaxometry (pre- and post-contrast) and FDG-PET were performed to monitor the progression of disease in two cohorts of EBOV infected macaques from baseline to terminal endpoint (day 5-6). Post-necropsy, multiplex fluorescence immunohistochemical (MF-IHC) staining for various cellular markers in the thalamus and brainstem was performed. Serial blood and CSF samples were collected to assess disease progression. The linear mixed effect model was used for statistical analysis. Post-infection, we first detected EBOV in the serum (day 3) and CSF (day 4) with dramatic increases until euthanasia. The standard uptake values of FDG-PET relative to whole brain uptake (SUVr) in the midbrain, pons, and thalamus increased significantly over time (p<0.01) and positively correlated with blood viremia (p≤0.01).
