Declarations under Rule 4.17: — of inventorship (Rule 4.17(iv)) Method and/or probe for determining glaucoma susceptibility and/or predicting/detecting shallow anterior chamber depth Field of the invention The present invention relates to the field of molecular biology, in particular in prediction and/or diagnosis of a condition and/or disease and/or determining susceptibility to the condition and/or disease. Background of the invention Glaucoma is known to be a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, characterised by progressive loss of axons in the optic nerve and corresponding visual field damage. Categorized according to the anatomy of the anterior chamber angle, there are two main forms of glaucoma, primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG). While POAG is the predominant form of glaucoma among Caucasians and Africans, 80% of the estimated 5 million people afflicted with PACG live in Asia. PACG is responsible for substantial blindness in Mongolia, Singapore, China, and India, and it is estimated that PACG blinds proportionately more people than POAG globally. Both POAG and PACG have indications of being a complex disease with both genetic and environmental factors likely having a role in its etiology. The pathogenesis of PACG is thought to occur through the interplay of multiple anatomical and physiological factors. A major ocular anatomical risk for PACG is a shallow anterior chamber depth of the eye (Lowe 970). However, genes associated with shallow anterior chamber depth, PACG and POAG are largely unknown although a few genes have been reported to have an association with POAG [Burdon et a/., (201 1); Thorleifsson et al., (2010); Wiggs et a , (201 )]. Summary of the invention According to a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for predicting and/or detecting a shallow anterior chamber depth and/or determining susceptibility to angle closure glaucoma in a subject, comprising determining the genotype of the subject for at least one nucleic acid variation in ATP-binding cassette sub-family C member 5 (ABCC5) gene, wherein the nucleic acid variation is correlated with anterior chamber depth and/or susceptibility to angle closure glaucoma. The present invention also provides a probe for use in predicting and/or detecting a shallow anterior chamber depth and/or determining susceptibility to angle closure glaucoma in a subject, wherein the probe is for use in determining the genotype of the subject for at least one nucleic acid variation in ATP binding cassette sub-family C member 5 (ABCC5) gene, wherein the nucleic acid variation is correlated with shallow anterior chamber depth and/or susceptibility to angle closure glaucoma. According to another aspect, the method and/or probe may be for diagnosing a shallow anterior chamber depth and/or glaucoma in a subject. Accordingly, the method and/or probe may be used to determine susceptibility to and/or diagnose primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG). Brief description of the figures Figure 1 shows the regional association and linkage disequilibrium plot around ABCC5 rs 40 999. The horizontal axis denotes genomic position along Chromosome 3 in absolute base-pairs. The vertical axis shows -Log10 P- values derived from the unguided 2 degrees of freedom genotype. Figure 2 shows the Manhattan plot for genome-wide meta-analysis of anterior chamber depth in three populations (Singapore Malays, Singapore Indians, and Chinese from Beijing) totaling 4,473 individuals. Figure 3 shows plots of genetic ancestry using principal components for the Singapore GWAS sample (PACG cases and controls) against HapMap reference population panels. Figures 4A and 4B shows plots of genetic ancestry using principal components for the Singapore PACG cases and controls. Figure 5 shows the quantile-quantile plot of P-values from the meta-analysis of ACD across the 3 independent sample collections. Figure 6 shows expression analysis of ABCC5 in human ocular tissues. The 249bp RT-PCR product was observed in cornea (C), sclera (S), retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), iris (I), lens (L), lens capsule (LC) and in the optic nerve (ON). The ubiquitously expressed gene, ACTB was used as the normalizing control. M denotes molecular-weight marker. Definitions "Determine" or "determining" means to find out or come to a decision about by investigation, reasoning, or calculation, or to settle or decide from alternatives or possibilities; "determine" or "determining" encompasses the meaning of "predicting" or "assessing". "Determining the genotype of a subject for a nucleic acid variation" refers to determining the genetic constitution or makeup of the subject for that nucleic acid variation and includes determining the absence or presence of the nucleic acid variation and; where the nucleic acid variation comprises several alternatives, determining the alternative in the subject. "Endophenotype" relates to a hereditary characteristic that is normally associated with some condition (for example, a disease) but is not a direct symptom of that condition. It may also be regarded as an intermediate phenotype of the condition. "Nucleic acid variation" includes, but is not limited to, a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), a double nucleotide polymorphism (DNP), a nucleotide deletion, a nucleotide addition, a nucleic acid amplification, a rearrangement of a nucleic acid sequence or a gene and/or and/or its corresponding transcriptional and/or translational product, and/or alternative splicing of the transcriptional and/or translational product. A "single polynucleotide polymorphism (SNP)" refers to a DNA and/or RNA sequence variation occurring when a single nucleotide in an organism's DNA sequence differs between members of the species (or between paired chromosomes in the organism). A "double polynucleotide polymorphism (DNP)" refers to two single polynucleotide polymorphisms, and includes the circumstances when the two SNPs are positioned next to each other, separated by other nucleotides, on different strands of the same nucleic acid molecules, or on different nucleic acid molecules. A "primer" refers to an oligonucleotide to which deoxyribonucleotides may be added by a DNA polymerase. A single primer may be used to amplify a DNA or RNA region, for example, for sequencing. A "primer pair" usually comprises a first primer complementary to one strand of a DNA or RNA molecule and a second primer complementary to a second strand of a DNA or RNA molecule, with both primers flanking a target DNA or RNA region, to be amplified by a DNA polymerase. Detailed description of the invention The present invention relates to a method for predicting and/or detecting a shallow anterior chamber depth and/or determining susceptibility to angle closure glaucoma in a subject, comprising determining the genotype of the subject for at least one nucleic acid variation in ATP-binding cassette sub-family C member 5 (ABCC5) gene, wherein the nucleic acid variation is correlated with susceptibility to angle closure glaucoma and/or shallow anterior chamber depth.

Koehn1, Katarzyna M. Dziegielewska1, Kjeld Møllgård 2, Elodie Saudrais3, Nathalie Strazielle3,4, Jean-Francois Ghersi-Egea3, Norman R. Saunders 1 & Mark D. Habgood1 Many pregnant women and prematurely born infants require medication for clinical conditions including cancer, cardiac defects and psychiatric disorders. In adults drug transfer from blood into brain is mostly restricted by efux mechanisms (ATP-binding cassette, ABC transporters). These mechanisms have been little studied during brain development. Here expression of eight ABC transporters (abcb1a, abcb1b, abcg2, abcc1, abcc2, abcc3, abcc4, abcc5) and activity of conjugating enzyme glutathione-s- transferase (GST) were measured in livers, brain cortices (blood-brain-barrier) and choroid plexuses (blood-cerebrospinal fuid, CSF, barrier) during postnatal rat development. Controls were compared to animals chronically injected (4 days, 200 mg/kg/day) with known abcb1a inducer diallyl sulfde (DAS). Results reveal both tissue- and age-dependent regulation. In liver abcb1a and abcc3 were up- regulated at all ages. In cortex abcb1a/b, abcg2 and abcc4/abcc5 were up-regulated in adults only, while in choroid plexus abcb1a and abcc2 were up-regulated only at P14. DAS treatment increased GST activity in livers, but not in cortex or choroid plexuses. Immunocytochemistry of ABC transporters at the CSF-brain interface showed that PGP and BCRP predominated in neuroepithelium while MRP2/4/5 were prominent in adult ependyma. These results indicate an age-related capacity of brain barriers to dynamically regulate their defence mechanisms when chronically challenged by xenobiotic compounds.

Such chemoresistance of tumors can be mediated by various cellular mechanisms including dysregulated apoptosis or ineffective drug concentration at the intracellular target sites. In this review, we highlight recent advances in experimental chemotherapy underlining the role of cellular transporters in drug resistance. Such contribution to the chemoresistant phenotype of tumor cells or tissues can be conferred both by uptake and export transporters, as demonstrated by in vivo and in vitro data.

In this study, we performed a two-stage case–control association study for irinotecan-induced severe myelosuppression (grades 3 and 4). In the first stage, 23 patients who developed severe myelosuppression and 58 patients who did not develop any toxicity were examined for 170 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 14 genes involved in the metabolism and transport of irinotecan. A total of five SNPs were identified to show the possible association with severe myelosuppression (PFishero0.01) and were further examined in 7 cases and 20 controls in the second stage of the study. An intronic SNP, rs2622604, in ABCG2 showed PFisher¼0.0419 in the second stage and indicated a significant association with severe myelosuppression in the combined study (PFisher¼0.000237; PCorrected¼0.036).

Received: 31 July 2014; in revised form: 4 September 2014 / Accepted: 11 September 2014 / Published: 29 September 2014 Abstract: The phenomenon of multidrug resistance (MDR) has attenuated the efficacy of anticancer drugs and the possibility of successful cancer chemotherapy. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters play an essential role in mediating MDR in cancer cells by increasing efflux of drugs from cancer cells, hence reducing the intracellular accumulation of chemotherapeutic drugs. Interestingly, small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), such as AST1306, lapatinib, linsitinib, masitinib, motesanib, nilotinib, telatinib and WHI-P154, have been found to have the capability to overcome anticancer drug resistance by inhibiting ABC transporters in recent years. This review will focus on some of the latest and clinical developments with ABC transporters, TKIs and anticancer drug resistance. Keywords: multidrug resistance; ABC transporters; tyrosine kinase inhibitor; clinical relevance; pharmacogenomics 1.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Multidrug resistance protein 5 (MRP5/ABCC5) is a 161 kDa member of the super family of ATP- binding cassette (ABC) superfamily of transmembrane transporters that is clinically relevant for its ability to confer multidrug resistance by actively effluxing anticancer drugs. ABCC5 has also been identified as an efflux transporter of cGMP (cyclic guanosine monophosphate). Elevated int- racellular levels of cGMP in cancer cells have been implicated in several clinical studies, that may induce apoptosis, and as a result many different cancer cells seem to overcome this deleterious effect by increased efflux of cGMP through ABCC5. Thus inhibition of ABCC5 may have cytotoxic effects mediated through cGMP and it will also increase the intracellular concentration of other drugs that are aimed for the treatment of cancer which are otherwise exported out of the cells. Considering the functional importance and lack of X-ray crystal structure of ABCC5, present work was undertaken to construct 3D structure of protein using homology modeling protocol of YASARA structure (V. 16.3.28). In this study, five different ABC templates (PDB ID’s: 4F4C, 4Q9H, 4M1M, 4M2T and 4KSD) were used for homology modeling.

Cerebral arteriolar relaxation, due to an increase in intracellular cAMP or cGMP, is believed to be associated with a severe form of cilostazol-induced headaches. Multidrug resistance protein 5 (MRP5) is an important regulator of cAMP and cGMP could be a regulatory protein of this cilostazol induced headache. Methods: The response to cilostazol on the basis of MRP5 genetic variations was studied in phase-I clinical trial including 101 healthy Korean individuals. Quantitative real time PCR, Western blot, confocal analysis and drug transporter assay was performed to detect and evaluate the activity of MRP5.

This heritable disorder leads to pathological alterations in connective tissues. The implication of MRP6 deficiency in PXE is still unknown. Moreover, nothing is known about a possible compensatory expression of other ATP binding-cassette (ABC) transporter proteins in MRP6-deficient cells. We investigated the gene expression profile of 47 ABC transporters in human dermal fibroblasts of healthy controls (n ¼ 2) and PXE patients (n ¼ 4) by TaqMan low-density array. The analysis revealed the expression of 37 ABC transporter genes in dermal fibroblasts. ABCC6 gene expression was not quantifiable in fibroblasts derived from PXE patients. Seven genes (ABCA6, ABCA9, ABCA10, ABCB5, ABCC2, ABCC9 and ABCD2) were induced, whereas the gene expression of one gene (ABCA3) was decreased, comparing controls and PXE patients (with at least twofold changes). We reanalyzed the gene expression of selected ABC transporters in a larger set of dermal fibroblasts from controls and PXE patients (n ¼ 6, each). Reanalysis showed high interindividual variability between samples, but confirmed the results obtained in the array analysis. The gene expression of ABC transporter genes, as well as lineage markers of PXE, was further examined after inhibition of ABCC6 gene expression by using specific small-interfering RNA.

Members of the for single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in eight genes MRP/CFTR family have been recognized as export pumps encoding the ATP-binding cassette, subfamily C (ABCC/ for amphiphilic anions, particularly for conjugates of lipo- MRP/CFTR), by direct sequencing of their entire genomic philic compounds with glutathione or several other anionic regions, except repetitive sequence elements. This ap- residues (Keppler et al. 1998, 1999; König et al. 1999). proach identified 688 SNPs and 91 insertion/deletion ABCC1 (MRP1) has been found to be overexpressed in polymorphisms among the eight genes. Of the 688 SNPs, many drug-resistant cell lines and tumor tissues (Cole et al. 81 were identified in the ABCC1 gene, 41 in ABCC2, 30 in 1992; Loe et al. 1996). When being overexpressed in tumor ABCC3, 230 in ABCC4, 76 in ABCC5, 58 in CFTR, 102 in cells, ABCC1 confers multidrug resistance by reducing ABCC8, and 70 in ABCC9. Six SNPs were located in the intracellular drug concentrations in an ATP-dependent 5Ј flanking regions, 617 in introns, 46 in exons, and 19 in the manner (Cole et al.
