Systems and Chemical Biology Approaches to Study Cell Function and Response to Toxins
Dissertation submitted to the Combined Faculties for the Natural Sciences and for Mathematics of the Ruperto-Carola University of Heidelberg, Germany for the degree of Doctor of Natural Sciences Presented by MSc. Yingying Jiang born in Shandong, China Oral-examination: Systems and chemical biology approaches to study cell function and response to toxins Referees: Prof. Dr. Rob Russell Prof. Dr. Stefan Wölfl CONTRIBUTIONS The chapter III of this thesis was submitted for publishing under the title “Drug mechanism predominates over toxicity mechanisms in drug induced gene expression” by Yingying Jiang, Tobias C. Fuchs, Kristina Erdeljan, Bojana Lazerevic, Philip Hewitt, Gordana Apic & Robert B. Russell. For chapter III, text phrases, selected tables, figures are based on this submitted manuscript that has been originally written by myself. i ABSTRACT Toxicity is one of the main causes of failure during drug discovery, and of withdrawal once drugs reached the market. Prediction of potential toxicities in the early stage of drug development has thus become of great interest to reduce such costly failures. Since toxicity results from chemical perturbation of biological systems, we combined biological and chemical strategies to help understand and ultimately predict drug toxicities. First, we proposed a systematic strategy to predict and understand the mechanistic interpretation of drug toxicities based on chemical fragments. Fragments frequently found in chemicals with certain toxicities were defined as structural alerts for use in prediction. Some of the predictions were supported with mechanistic interpretation by integrating fragment- chemical, chemical-protein, protein-protein interactions and gene expression data. Next, we systematically deciphered the mechanisms of drug actions and toxicities by analyzing the associations of drugs’ chemical features, biological features and their gene expression profiles from the TG-GATEs database.

Origins and Functional Impact of Copy Number Variation in the Human Genome

Carter1, Charles Lee5, Stephen W. Scherer2,6 & Matthew E. Hurles1 Structural variations of DNA greater than 1 kilobase in size account for most bases that vary among human genomes, but are still relatively under-ascertained. Here we use tiling oligonucleotide microarrays, comprising 42 million probes, to generate a comprehensive map of 11,700 copy number variations (CNVs) greater than 443 base pairs, of which most (8,599) have been validated independently. For 4,978 of these CNVs, we generated reference genotypes from 450 individuals of European, African or East Asian ancestry. The predominant mutational mechanisms differ among CNV size classes. Retrotransposition has duplicated and inserted some coding and non-coding DNA segments randomly around the genome. Furthermore, by correlation with known trait-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), we identified 30 loci with CNVs that are candidates for influencing disease susceptibility. Despite this, having assessed the completeness of our map and the patterns of linkage disequilibrium between CNVs and SNPs, we conclude that, for complex traits, the heritability void left by genome-wide association studies will not be accounted for by common CNVs.

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.

The immune complexes are deposited in the glomerular mesangium, leading to inflammation and loss of renal function, but the complete pathophysiology of the disease is not understood. Using an integrated global transcriptomic and proteomic profiling approach, we investigated the role of the mesangium in the onset and progression of IgAN. Global gene expression was investigated by microarray analysis of the glomerular compartment of renal biopsy specimens from patients with IgAN (n=19) and controls (n=22). Using curated glomerular cell type–specific genes from the published literature, we found differential expression of a much higher percentage of mesangial cell–positive standard genes than podocyte-positive standard genes in IgAN. Principal coordinate analysis of expression data revealed clear separation of patient and control samples on the basis of mesangial but not podocyte cell–positive standard genes.

Variants in the GH-IGF Axis Confer Susceptibility to Lung Cancer
Downloaded from genome.cshlp.org on October 4, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Letter Variants in the GH-IGF axis confer susceptibility to lung cancer Matthew F. Rudd,1 Emily L. Webb,1 Athena Matakidou,1 Gabrielle S. Sellick,1 Richard D. Williams,2 Helen Bridle,3 Tim Eisen,3,4 Richard S. Houlston,1,4,5 and the GELCAPS Consortium6 1Section of Cancer Genetics, 2Section of Paediatrics, and 3Section of Medicine, Institute of Cancer Research, Sutton, Surrey SM2 5NG, United Kingdom We conducted a large-scale genome-wide association study in UK Caucasians to identify susceptibility alleles for lung cancer, analyzing 1529 cases and 2707 controls. To increase the likelihood of identifying disease-causing alleles, we genotyped 1476 nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) in 871 candidate cancer genes, biasing SNP selection toward those predicted to be deleterious. Statistically significant associations were identified for 64 nsSNPs, generating a genome-wide significance level of P = 0.002. Eleven of the 64 SNPs mapped to genes encoding pivotal components of the growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor (GH-IGF) pathway, including CAMKK1 E375G (OR = 1.37, P =5.4×10−5), AKAP9 M463I (OR = 1.32, P =1.0×10−4) and GHR P495T (OR = 12.98, P = 0.0019). Significant associations were also detected for SNPs within genes in the DNA damage-response pathway, including BRCA2 K3326X (OR = 1.72, P = 0.0075) and XRCC4 I137T (OR = 1.31, P = 0.0205). Our study provides evidence that inherited predisposition to lung cancer is in part mediated through low-penetrance alleles and specifically identifies variants in GH-IGF and DNA damage-response pathways with risk of lung cancer.

Review Multiplicity of Mammalian Reductases for Xenobiotic Carbonyl Compounds
Drug Metab. Pharmacokinet. 21 (1): 1–18 (2006). Review Multiplicity of Mammalian Reductases for Xenobiotic Carbonyl Compounds Toshiyuki MATSUNAGA, Shinichi SHINTANI and Akira HARA* Laboratory of Biochemistry, Gifu Pharmaceutical University, Gifu, Japan Full text of this paper is available at http://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/browse/dmpk Summary: A variety of carbonyl compounds are present in foods, environmental pollutants, and drugs. These xenobiotic carbonyl compounds are metabolized into the corresponding alcohols by many mammalian NAD(P)H-dependent reductases, which belong to the short-chain dehydrogenaseWreductase (SDR) and aldo-keto reductase superfamilies. Recent genomic analysis, cDNA isolation and characteriza- tion of the recombinant enzymes suggested that, in humans, the six members of each of the two superfamilies, i.e., total of 12 enzymes, are involved in the reductive metabolism of xenobiotic carbonyl compounds. They comprise three types of carbonyl reductase, dehydrogenaseWreductase (SDR family) member 4, 11b-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1, L-xylulose reductase, two types of a‰atoxin B1 aldehyde reductase, 20a-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, and three types of 3a-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. Accumulating data on the human enzymes provide new insights into their roles in cellular and molecular reactions including xenobiotic metabolism. On the other hand, mice and rats lack the gene for a protein corresponding to human 3a-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 3, but instead possess additional ˆve or six genes encoding proteins that are structurally related to human hydroxy- steroid dehydrogenases. Characterization of the additional enzymes suggested their involvement in species-speciˆc biological events and species diŠerences in the metabolism of xenobiotic carbonyl compounds. Key words: Carbonyl reduction; short-chain dehydrogenaseWreductase superfamily; aldo-keto reductase superfamily; carbonyl reductase; hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase; species diŠerence alcohols by NADPH-dependent reductases with broad Introduction substrate speciˆcity.
