None of the five PDXs expressed remissions in mice bearing detectable levels of the tumor suppressor protein PTEN (Fig. 1b and Supplementary Table 1).

    Human Kinase Open Reading Frame Collecon Description: The Center for Cancer Systems Biology (Dana Farber Cancer Institute)- Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT Human Kinase ORF collection from Addgene consists of 559 distinct human kinases and kinase-related protein ORFs in pDONR-223 Gateway® Entry vectors. All clones are clonal isolates and have been end-read sequenced to confirm identity. Kinase ORFs were assembled from a number of sources; 56% were isolated as single cloned isolates from the ORFeome 5.1 collection (horfdb.dfci.harvard.edu); 31% were cloned from normal human tissue RNA (Ambion) by reverse transcription and subsequent PCR amplification adding Gateway® sequences; 11% were cloned into Entry vectors from templates provided by the Harvard Institute of Proteomics (HIP); 2% additional kinases were cloned into Entry vectors from templates obtained from collaborating laboratories. All ORFs are open (stop codons removed) except for 5 (MST1R, PTK7, JAK3, AXL, TIE1) which are closed (have stop codons).

There are no clear genetic or environmental causes, and current treatments suffer from limiting side effects. Therefore, alternative intervention strategies are urgently required. Our approach is to determine mechanisms of action of current drug therapies, in the hope that they will lead to discovery of next generation therapeutic targets. Lithium has been the mainstay treatment for BD for over 50 years, although its mechanism of action is not yet clear.

Recent work suggests cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) pathway activation is a powerful driver of sarcomagenesis. CDK proteins participate in numerous cellular processes required for normal cell function, but their dysregulation is a hallmark of many pathologies including cancer. The contributions and significance of aberrant CDK activity to sarcoma development, however, is only partly understood.

ABSTRACT Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common malignant brain tumor in children and is associated with a poor outcome. cMYC amplification characterizes a subgroup of MB with very poor prognosis. However, there exist so far no targeted therapies for the subgroup of MB with cMYC amplification. Here we used kinome-wide RNA interference screening to identify novel kinases that may be targeted to inhibit the proliferation of c-Myc-overexpressing MB. The RNAi screen identified a set of 5 genes that could be targeted to selectively impair the proliferation of c-Myc-overexpressing MB cell lines: AKAP12 (A-kinase anchor protein), CSNK1α1 (casein kinase 1, alpha 1), EPHA7 (EPH receptor A7) and PCTK1 (PCTAIRE protein kinase 1).

These proteins have a core kinase domain flanked by unique amino- and carboxy-terminal domains. CDK proteins are known to regulate the cell cycle. CDK16, which is expressed primarily in mammalian brain, interacts with a variety of proteins, and is thought to be part of a multiple signal transduction cascade.

  • Stimulation of the Insulin/Mtor Pathway Delays Cone Death in a Mouse Model of Retinitis Pigmentosa
    ARTICLES Stimulation of the insulin/mTOR pathway delays cone death in a mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa Claudio Punzo1, Karl Kornacker2 & Constance L Cepko1,3 Retinitis pigmentosa is an incurable retinal disease that leads to blindness. One puzzling aspect concerns the progression of the disease. Although most mutations that cause retinitis pigmentosa are in rod photoreceptor–specific genes, cone photoreceptors also die as a result of such mutations. To understand the mechanism of non-autonomous cone death, we analyzed four mouse models harboring mutations in rod-specific genes. We found changes in the insulin/mammalian target of rapamycin pathway that coincided with the activation of autophagy during the period of cone death. We increased or decreased the insulin level and measured the survival of cones in one of the models. Mice that were treated systemically with insulin had prolonged cone survival, whereas depletion of endogenous insulin had the opposite effect. These data suggest that the non-autonomous cone death in retinitis pigmentosa could, at least in part, be a result of the starvation of cones. Retinitis pigmentosa is a type of inherited retinal degeneration. It To determine the common underlying mechanism for cone death in is currently untreatable and usually leads to blindness. With over retinitis pigmentosa, we compared four mouse models harboring 40 reintitis pigmentosa genes identified, it is the most common type mutations in rod-specific genes (Pde6b–/– (ref. 11), Pde6g–/– (ref. 12), of retinal degeneration caused by a single disease allele (RetNet, Rho–/– (ref. 13) and P23H14, which carries a Rho transgene that has an http://www.sph.uth.tmc.edu/Retnet/).
