Therefore, protein expression of PDGF receptors a and b as well as amplification status of the respective genes, PDGFRA and PDGFRB, were examined in a series of 22 patients harboring choroid plexus carcinoma using immunohistochemistry and chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH). The majority of choroid plexus carcinomas expressed PDGF receptors with 6 cases (27%) displaying high staining scores for PDGF receptor a and 13 cases (59%) showing high staining scores for PDGF receptor b. Correspondingly, copy-number gains of PDGFRA were observed in 8 cases out of 12 cases available for CISH and 1 case displayed amplification (six or more signals per nucleus). The proportion of choroid plexus carcinomas with amplification of PDGFRB was even higher (5/12 cases). -

Insulin–Insr Signaling Drives Multipotent Progenitor Differentiation Toward Lymphoid Lineages

However, the un- derlying mechanisms that control this process remain largely unknown. Here, we show that insulin–insulin receptor (InsR) signaling is required for lineage commitment of multipotent progenitors (MPPs). Deletion of Insr in murine bone marrow causes skewed differentiation of MPPs to myeloid cells. mTOR acts as a downstream effector that modulates MPP differentiation. mTOR activates Stat3 by phosphorylation at serine 727 under insulin stimulation, which binds to the promoter of Ikaros, lead- ing to its transcription priming. Our findings reveal that the insulin–InsR signaling drives MPP differentiation into lymphoid lineages in early lymphopoiesis, which is essential for maintaining a balanced immune system for an individual organism.

PDGFRB FISH for Gleevec Eligibility in Myelodysplastic Syndrome/Myeloproliferative Disease (MDS/MPD)
PDGFRB FISH PRODUCT DATASHEET Proprietary Name: PDGFRB FISH for Gleevec Eligibility in Myelodysplastic Syndrome/Myeloproliferative Disease (MDS/MPD) Established Name: PDGFRB FISH for Gleevec in MDS/MPD INTENDED USE Humanitarian Device. Authorized by Federal law for use in the qualitative detection of PDGFRB gene rearrangement in patients with MDS/MPD. The effectiveness of this device for this use has not been demonstrated. Caution: Federal Law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a licensed practitioner. PDGFRB FISH for Gleevec Eligibility in Myelodysplastic Syndrome/Myeloproliferative Disease (MDS/MPD) is an in vitro diagnostic test intended for the qualitative detection of PDGFRB gene rearrangement from fresh bone marrow samples of patients with MDS/MPD with a high index of suspicion based on karyotyping showing a 5q31~33 anomaly. The PDGFRB FISH assay is indicated as an aid in the selection of MDS/MPD patients for whom Gleevec® (imatinib mesylate) treatment is being considered. This assay is for professional use only and is to be performed at a single laboratory site. SUMMARY AND EXPLANATION OF THE TEST The PDGFRB FISH assay detects rearrangement of the PDGFRB locus at chromosome 5q31~33 in adult patients with myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative disease (MDS/MPD). The PDGFRB gene encodes a cell surface receptor tyrosine kinase that upon activation stimulates mesenchymal cell division. Rearrangement of PDGFRB has been demonstrated by classical cytogenetic analysis in an exceedingly small fraction of MDS/MPD patients (~1%), usually cases with a clinical phenotype of chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). In particular, these patients harbor a t(5:12)(q31;p12) translocation involving the PDGFRB and ETV6 genes. -

Received: 2020.06.11; Accepted: 2020.10.09; Published: 2020.10.22 Abstract Background and objectives: Although diabetic-induced hepatotoxicity is less common, it can be included in the list of target organ pathologies associated with diabetes. This study aimed to investigate the potential therapeutic role of sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696) in modulating oxidative and inflammatory injuries and liver fibrosis in STZ-induced hyperglycemic rats in comparison to valsartan alone. Materials and Methods: Following the induction of diabetes using a single dose of streptozotocin (STZ), STZ-induced hyperglycemic animals were administered LCZ696 or valsartan for 6 weeks. Glucose, transaminases, lipid profile, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β), and interleukin - 6 (IL-6), were estimated using the obtained serum. Oxidative stress biomarkers including thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and glutathione S-transferase (GST) were measured in the liver homogenate. -
The Insulin and IGF-1 Receptors
The insulin and IGF-1 receptors Author: Pierre De Meyts Author title: MD, PHD, F.A.C.E. A bit of history The birth of the receptor concept dates back to the early work of John Newport Langley (1852-1925), a Cambridge physiologist, who postulated in 1905 that a "receptive substance" on the surface of skeletal muscle mediated the action of nicotine (1). At about the same time, Paul Ehrlich (1854-1915), a German immunologist who was the founding father of chemotherapy, came up with a "side chain theory" of cell receptors to explain the selectivity of immune reactions, winning him the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1908. His famous adage "Corpora non agunt nisi fixata" ("Substances do not act unless they are bound") is an elegant and concise early statement of the receptor theory (2). The receptor concept was put on more solid ground with the seminal 1948 paper of Raymond P. Ahlquist (1914-1983), an American pharmacologist of Swedish descent at the Medical College of Georgia, who proposed that the excitatory and inhibitory effects of adrenotropic agents were mediated by two separate receptors which he termed a and b (3). The receptors would however remain hypothetical entities until the late 60's, when direct methods to study their biochemistry were developed. The concept that insulin exerts its effects by acting at the membrane of target cells was proposed over 60 years ago by Rachmiel Levine (1910-1991), considered by many as one of the founding fathers of modern diabetology, then working at Walter Reese Hospital in Chicago. -
Five Mutant Alleles of the Insulin Receptor Gene in Patients with Genetic Forms of Insulin Resistance
Five mutant alleles of the insulin receptor gene in patients with genetic forms of insulin resistance. T Kadowaki, … , P Gorden, S I Taylor J Clin Invest. 1990;86(1):254-264. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI114693. Research Article The nucleotide sequence was determined for all 22 exons of the insulin receptor gene from three patients with genetic syndromes associated with extreme insulin resistance. In all three patients, insulin resistance was caused by decreased insulin binding to the cell surface. The patient with leprechaunism (leprechaun/Winnipeg) came from a consanguineous pedigree and was homozygous for a missense mutation substituting arginine for His209 in the alpha-subunit of the insulin receptor. The other two patients were both compound heterozygotes with a nonsense mutation in one allele of the insulin receptor gene, and a missense mutation in the other allele. In the patient with the Rabson-Mendenhall syndrome (patient RM-1), the missense mutation substituted lysine for Asn15 in the alpha-subunit. In the patient with type A extreme insulin resistance (patient A-1), the missense mutation substituted serine for Asn462 in the alpha-subunit. Both nonsense mutations markedly reduced the levels of insulin receptor mRNA transcribed from the alleles with the nonsense mutation as compared to the transcripts from the other allele. The reduction in the level of mRNA would be predicted to greatly reduce the rate at which the truncated receptors would be synthesized. Furthermore, the truncated receptors would be severely impaired in their ability to mediate insulin action.

Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Isoform Expression in Carbon Tetrachloride
Laboratory Investigation (2008) 88, 1090–1100 & 2008 USCAP, Inc All rights reserved 0023-6837/08 $30.00 Platelet-derived growth factor isoform expression in carbon tetrachloride-induced chronic liver injury Erawan Borkham-Kamphorst1, Evgenia Kovalenko1, Claudia RC van Roeyen2, Nikolaus Gassler3, Michael Bomble1, Tammo Ostendorf 2,Ju¨rgen Floege2, Axel M Gressner1 and Ralf Weiskirchen1 Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) has an essential role in liver fibrogenesis, as PDGF-B and -D both act as potent mitogens on culture-activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). Induction of PDGF receptor type-b (PDGFRb) in HSC is well documented in single-dose carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced acute liver injury. Of the newly discovered isoforms PDGF- C and -D, only PDGF-D shows significant upregulation in bile duct ligation (BDL) models. We have now investigated the expression of PDGF isoforms and receptors in chronic liver injury in vivo after long-term CCl4 treatment and demonstrated that isolated hepatocytes have the requisite PDGF signaling pathways, both in the naive state and when isolated from CCl4-treated rats. In vivo, PDGF gene expression showed upregulation of all PDGF isoforms and receptors, with values peaking at 4 weeks and decreasing to near basal levels by 8 and 12 weeks. Interestingly, PDGF-C increased significantly when compared to BDL-models. PDGF-A, PDGF-C and PDGF receptor type-a (PDGFRa) correlated closely with in- flammation and steatosis. Immunohistochemistry revealed expression of PDGF-B, -C and -D in areas corresponding to centrilobular necrosis, inflammation and fibrosis, whereas PDGF-A localized in regenerative hepatocytes. PDGFRb was identified along the fibrotic septa, whereas PDGFRa showed positive staining in fibrotic septa and regenerative hepa- tocytes.
