  • The Pdx1 Bound Swi/Snf Chromatin Remodeling Complex Regulates Pancreatic Progenitor Cell Proliferation and Mature Islet Β Cell

Here we demonstrate that mouse pancreas size and islet β cell function are controlled by the ATP-dependent Swi/Snf chromatin remodeling coregulatory complex that physically associates with Pdx1, a diabetes- linked transcription factor essential to pancreatic morphogenesis and adult islet-cell function and maintenance. Early embryonic deletion of just the Swi/Snf Brg1 ATPase subunit reduced multipotent pancreatic progenitor cell proliferation and resulted in pancreas hypoplasia. In contrast, removal of both Swi/Snf ATPase subunits, Brg1 and Brm, was necessary to compromise adult islet β cell activity, which included whole animal glucose intolerance, hyperglycemia and impaired insulin secretion. Notably, lineage-tracing analysis revealed Swi/Snf-deficient β cells lost the ability to produce the mRNAs for insulin and other key metabolic genes without effecting the expression of many essential islet-enriched transcription factors.

  • Integrated Transcriptome and in Vitro Analysis Revealed Anti-Proliferative
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Integrated transcriptome and in vitro analysis revealed anti-proliferative efect of citral Received: 26 November 2018 Accepted: 5 March 2019 in human stomach cancer through Published: xx xx xxxx apoptosis Sri Renukadevi Balusamy1, Sivasubramanian Ramani 1, Sathishkumar Natarajan 2, Yeon Ju Kim3 & Haribalan Perumalsamy3 Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally, particularly stomach cancer is third most common causes of cancer death worldwide. Citral possesses anti-tumor activity in various cancer cell lines, However its efect toward stomach cancer and its mechanism of action is have yet to be elucidated. The goal of the present study is to elucidate the role of citral in stomach cancer using transcriptome and in vitro approaches. We performed transcriptome analysis using RNA-seq and explored its capability to persuade apoptosis in AGS human stomach cancer cell lines in vitro. Furthermore, the enrichment and KEGG pathway results suggested that there are several genes involved to induce apoptosis pathway. Furthermore, our study also demonstrated that citral arrested colony formation and migration of cancer cells signifcantly than that of untreated cells. RNA-seq revealed a total of 125 million trimmed reads obtained from both control and citral treated groups respectively. A total number of 612 diferentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identifed which includes 216 genes up-regulated and 396 genes down- regulated genes after treatment. The enrichment analysis identifed DEGs genes from transcriptome libraries including cell death, cell cycle, apoptosis and cell growth. The present study showed the signifcant inhibition efect upon citral by regulating various genes involved in signaling pathways, inhibits metastasis, colony formation and induced apoptosis both in silico and in vitro.

  • A Large Multiethnic GWAS Meta-Analysis of Cataract Identifies
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-23873-8 OPEN A large multiethnic GWAS meta-analysis of cataract identifies new risk loci and sex-specific effects ✉ Hélène Choquet 1 , Ronald B. Melles2, Deepti Anand 3, Jie Yin1, Gabriel Cuellar-Partida4, Wei Wang 4, 23andMe Research Team4, Thomas J. Hoffmann 5,6, K. Saidas Nair 7, Pirro G. Hysi 8,9,10, Salil A. Lachke 3,11,12 & Eric Jorgenson 1,12 1234567890():,; Cataract is the leading cause of blindness among the elderly worldwide and cataract surgery is one of the most common operations performed in the United States. As the genetic etiology of cataract formation remains unclear, we conducted a multiethnic genome-wide association meta-analysis, combining results from the GERA and UK Biobank cohorts, and tested for replication in the 23andMe research cohort. We report 54 genome-wide significant loci, 37 of which were novel. Sex-stratified analyses identified CASP7 as an additional novel locus specific to women. We show that genes within or near 80% of the cataract-associated loci are significantly expressed and/or enriched-expressed in the mouse lens across various spatiotemporal stages as per iSyTE analysis. Furthermore, iSyTE shows 32 candidate genes in the associated loci have altered gene expression in 9 different gene perturbation mouse models of lens defects/cataract, suggesting their relevance to lens biology. Our work pro- vides further insight into the complex genetic architecture of cataract susceptibility. 1 Kaiser Permanente Northern California (KPNC), Division of Research, Oakland, CA, USA. 2 KPNC, Department of Ophthalmology, Redwood City, CA, USA. 3 Department of Biological Sciences, University of Delaware, Newark, DE, USA.

To explore the diversity of the LC8 Clark et al, 2018). In addition, expression patterns show that LC8 is partner pool, we screened for LC8 binding partners using a proteomic highly expressed across a wide variety of cell types (Petryszak et al, phage display library composed of peptides from the human pro- 2016) and is broadly distributed within individual cells (Chen et al, teome, which had no bias toward a known LC8 motif.

Colocalization and binding canonical TQT motif anchor. A striking observation is that numerous studies with dynein led to a common perception that LC8 functions peptides containing the TQT anchor do not bind LC8, indicating that as a dynein “cargo adaptor” to facilitate transport of dynein cargo residues outside of the anchor facilitate LC8 interactions.
