Application Details Immunofluorescence: 1:50-200 Background QRFP is a 136 amino acid secreted protein that is widely expressed in the brain with highest expression levels in the cerebellum, medulla, pituitary, retina, vestibular nucleus and white matter. Also expressed in the bladder, colon, coronary artery, parathyroid gland, prostate, testis and thyroid, QRFP is a member of the RFamide neuropeptide family. QRFP may be involved in aldosterone secretion by the adrenal gland and is also implicated in stimulating metabolic rate, locomotor activity and increasing blood pressure. Considered a ligand for the G-protein coupled receptor GPR103, QRFP may have orexigenic activity, thereby acting as an appetite stimulant. The gene encoding QFRP is located on human chromosome 9, which consists of about 145 million bases, comprises roughly 4% of the human genome and encodes nearly 900 genes.

Zhangb, Gregory Dussora, Theodore J. Pricea,* from https://journals.lww.com/pain Abstract Molecular neurobiological insight into human nervous tissues is needed to generate next-generation therapeutics for neurological disorders such as chronic pain. We obtained human dorsal root ganglia (hDRG) samples from organ donors and performed RNA- sequencing (RNA-seq) to study the hDRG transcriptional landscape, systematically comparing it with publicly available data from by BhDMf5ePHKav1zEoum1tQfN4a+kJLhEZgbsIHo4XMi0hCywCX1AWnYQp/IlQrHD3mH5nK33R3Qh4f27oe7zFUUf7ZAUK5aCsyqAeT54jiDxP7ZjumT3TrA== a variety of human and orthologous mouse tissues, including mouse DRG (mDRG). We characterized the hDRG transcriptional profile in terms of tissue-restricted gene coexpression patterns and putative transcriptional regulators, and formulated an information-theoretic framework to quantify DRG enrichment. Relevant gene families and pathways were also analyzed, including transcription factors, G-protein-coupled receptors, and ion channels. Our analyses reveal an hDRG-enriched protein-coding gene set (;140), some of which have not been described in the context of DRG or pain signaling. Most of these show conserved enrichment in mDRG and were mined for known drug–gene product interactions. Conserved enrichment of the vast majority of transcription factors suggests that the mDRG is a faithful model system for studying hDRG, because of evolutionarily conserved regulatory programs.

Differential DNA Methylation Patterns Define Status Epilepticus and Epileptic Tolerance
The Journal of Neuroscience, February 1, 2012 • 32(5):1577–1588 • 1577 Neurobiology of Disease Differential DNA Methylation Patterns Define Status Epilepticus and Epileptic Tolerance Suzanne F. C.

Epileptic tolerance is an endogenous program of cell protection that can be activated in the brainbypreviousexposuretoanon-harmfulseizureepisodebeforestatusepilepticus.Amajortranscriptionalfeatureoftoleranceisgene downregulation. Here, through methylation analysis of 34,143 discrete loci representing all annotated CpG islands and promoter regions in the mouse genome, we report the genome-wide DNA methylation changes in the hippocampus after status epilepticus and epileptic tolerance in adult mice. A total of 321 genes showed altered DNA methylation after status epilepticus alone or status epilepticus that followed seizure preconditioning, with Ͼ90% of the promoters of these genes undergoing hypomethylation. These profiles included genes not previously associated with epilepsy, such as the polycomb gene Phc2. Differential methylation events generally occurred throughout the genome without bias for a particular chromosomal region, with the exception of a small region of chromosome 4, which was significantly overrepresented with genes hypomethylated after status epilepticus.

Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Medicine 1040. 59 pp. Uppsala, Sweden: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-554-9059-1. The neuropeptide Y (NPY) system consists of 3-4 peptides and 4-7 receptors in vertebrates. It has powerful effects on appetite regulation and is involved in many other biological processes including blood pressure regulation, bone formation and anxiety. This thesis describes studies of the evolution of the NPY system by comparison of several vertebrate species and structural studies of the human Y2 receptor, which reduces appetite, to identify amino acid residues involved in peptide-receptor interactions. The NPY system was studied in zebrafish (Danio rerio), western clawed frog (Xenopus tropicalis), and sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus). The receptors were cloned and functionally expressed and their pharmacological profiles were determined using the native peptides in either binding studies or a signal transduction assay. Some peptide-receptor preferences were observed, indicating functional specialization.

Identification of Novel Regulatory Genes in Acetaminophen
IDENTIFICATION OF NOVEL REGULATORY GENES IN ACETAMINOPHEN INDUCED HEPATOCYTE TOXICITY BY A GENOME-WIDE CRISPR/CAS9 SCREEN A THESIS IN Cell Biology and Biophysics and Bioinformatics Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By KATHERINE ANNE SHORTT B.S, Indiana University, Bloomington, 2011 M.S, University of Missouri, Kansas City, 2014 Kansas City, Missouri 2018 © 2018 Katherine Shortt All Rights Reserved IDENTIFICATION OF NOVEL REGULATORY GENES IN ACETAMINOPHEN INDUCED HEPATOCYTE TOXICITY BY A GENOME-WIDE CRISPR/CAS9 SCREEN Katherine Anne Shortt, Candidate for the Doctor of Philosophy degree, University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2018 ABSTRACT Acetaminophen (APAP) is a commonly used analgesic responsible for over 56,000 overdose-related emergency room visits annually. A long asymptomatic period and limited treatment options result in a high rate of liver failure, generally resulting in either organ transplant or mortality. The underlying molecular mechanisms of injury are not well understood and effective therapy is limited. Identification of previously unknown genetic risk factors would provide new mechanistic insights and new therapeutic targets for APAP induced hepatocyte toxicity or liver injury. This study used a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen to evaluate genes that are protective against or cause susceptibility to APAP-induced liver injury. HuH7 human hepatocellular carcinoma cells containing CRISPR/Cas9 gene knockouts were treated with 15mM APAP for 30 minutes to 4 days. A gene expression profile was developed based on the 1) top screening hits, 2) overlap with gene expression data of APAP overdosed human patients, and 3) biological interpretation including assessment of known and suspected iii APAP-associated genes and their therapeutic potential, predicted affected biological pathways, and functionally validated candidate genes.

We previously reported the potential therapeutic role of osteopontin (OPN) and macrophages in CaOx kidney stone formation, discovered using genome-recombined mice and genome-wide analyses. Here, to characterize the genetic patho- genesis of RPs, we used microarrays and immunohistology to compare gene expression among renal papillary RP and non-RP tissues of 23 CaOx stone formers (SFs) (age- and sex-matched) and normal papillary tissue of seven controls. Transmission electron microscopy showed OPN and collagen expression inside and around RPs, respectively. Cluster analysis revealed that the papillary gene expression of CaOx SFs differed significantly from that of controls. Disease and function analysis of gene expression revealed activation of cellular hyperpolarization, reproductive development, and molecular transport in papillary tissue from RPs and non-RP regions of CaOx SFs. Compared with non-RP tissue, RP tissue showed upregulation (˃2-fold) of LCN2, IL11, PTGS1, GPX3,andMMD and downregulation (0.5-fold) of SLC12A1 and NALCN (P,0.01). In network and toxicity analyses, these genes associated with activated mitogen- activated protein kinase, the Akt/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway, and proinflammatory cytokines that cause renal injury and oxidative stress.

The Novel Role of the Neuropeptides Orexin and QRFP and Their Involvement in Alzheimer’S Disease
The novel role of the neuropeptides Orexin and QRFP and their involvement in Alzheimer’s disease A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Julie Davies Division of Biosciences School of Health Science and Social Care May 2014 i Declaration I hereby declare that the research presented in this thesis is my own work, except where otherwise specified, and has not been submitted for any other degree. Julie Davies ii Abstract Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease which affects over 500,000 people in the UK. Worldwide 44 million people are affected by AD and other dementias. Most cases occur over the age of 65 and is characterised by gradual and increasing loss of cognitive function and behavioural abnormalities. The main causes are a build-up of the toxic protein amyloid-β (Aβ) and hyperphosphorylation of the microtubule stabilising protein: tau, leading to neurofibrillary tangles (NFT). These two hallmarks of disease result in neuronal damage and cell death causing associated symptoms and eventually death. Orexins (OX) are neuropeptides which function to regulate the sleep-wake cycle and feeding behaviour. They are produced from a prepro-orexin (PPO) molecule and cleaved into two isoforms: orexin-A (OXA) and orexin-B (OXB). OXA and OXB are the ligands for two G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR): orexin receptor 1 (OX1R) and orexin receptor 2 (OX2R). 50-80,000 OX producing neurons project to many areas of the brain including the lateral hypothalamus (LHA), locus coeruleus (LC), tuberomammillary nucleus (TMN), paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and raphe nuclei and from these areas regulate feeding and appetite and the sleep wake cycle through their receptors.
