Development of a Test That Measures Real-Time HER2 Signaling Function in Live Breast Cancer Cell Lines and Primary Cells Yao Huang1, David J
Huang et al. BMC Cancer (2017) 17:199 DOI 10.1186/s12885-017-3181-0 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Development of a test that measures real-time HER2 signaling function in live breast cancer cell lines and primary cells Yao Huang1, David J. Burns1, Benjamin E. Rich1, Ian A. MacNeil1, Abhijit Dandapat1, Sajjad M. Soltani1, Samantha Myhre1, Brian F. Sullivan1, Carol A. Lange2, Leo T. Furcht3 and Lance G. Laing1* Abstract Background: Approximately 18–20% of all human breast cancers have overexpressed human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). Standard clinical practice is to treat only overexpressed HER2 (HER2+) cancers with targeted anti-HER2 therapies. However, recent analyses of clinical trial data have found evidence that HER2-targeted therapies may benefit a sub-group of breast cancer patients with non-overexpressed HER2. This suggests that measurement of other biological factors associated with HER2 cancer, such as HER2 signaling pathway activity, should be considered as an alternative means of identifying patients eligible for HER2 therapies. Methods: A new biosensor-based test (CELxTM HSF) that measures HER2 signaling activity in live cells is demonstrated using a set of 19 human HER2+ and HER2– breast cancer reference cell lines and primary cell samples derived from two fresh patient tumor specimens. Pathway signaling is elucidated by use of highly specific agonists and antagonists. The test method relies upon well-established phenotypic, adhesion-related, impedance changes detected by the biosensor. Results: The analytical sensitivity and analyte specificity of this method was demonstrated using ligands with high affinity and specificity for HER1 and HER3. The HER2-driven signaling quantified ranged 50-fold between the lowest and highest cell lines. -
Cell Line Descriptions Geneblazer® M1-NFAT
Version No.: GeneBLAzer ® Validation Packet Page 1 of 5 01Sep08 Optimization of the GeneBLazer ® M1-NFAT-bla Jurkat Cell Line GeneBLAzer ® M1 NFAT-bla Jurkat Cells Catalog Numbers – K1710 Cell Line Descriptions GeneBLAzer ® M1-NFAT-bla Jurkat cells contain the human Acetylcholine (muscarinic) subtype 1 receptor (M1), (Accession # NM_000738 ) stably integrated into the CellSensor ® NFAT-bla Jurkat cell line. CellSensor ® NFAT-bla Jurkat cells (Cat. no. K1671) contain a beta-lactamase (bla ) reporter gene under control of the Nuclear Factor of Activated T-cells (NFAT) response element. M1-NFAT-bla Jurkat cells are functionally validated for Z’-factor and EC 50 concentrations of carbachol (Figure 1). In addition, GeneBLAzer ® M1-NFAT-bla CHO-K1 cells have been tested for assay performance under variable conditions. Target Description Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors are members of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily. Muscarinic receptors are widely distributed and mediate the actions of acetylcholine in both the CNS and peripheral tissues. Five muscarinic receptor subtypes have been identified and are referred to as M 1-M5 (1-5). The five genes that encode the muscarinic receptors all belong to the rhodopsin-line family (Family A) and share strong sequence homology but have unique regions located at the amino terminus (extracellular) and in the third intracellular loop. The M 1, M3, and M 5 receptor subtypes couple through the G q/11 class of G-proteins and activate the phopholipase C pathway. Activation of this pathway in turn leads to increases in free intracellular calcium levels as inositol triphosphate mediates release of calcium from the endoplasmic reticulum. -

Departaments: 1- Clinical Oncology; 2- postgraduate student; 3- Radiology; 4- Nuclear Medicine; 5-International Research Center (CIPE); 6-Pathologic anatomy; 7- Abdomen Surgery AC Camargo Cancer Center - Brazil Registration Number on Institutional Research Ethics Committee: 2626/18 March,06,2019 Introduction Neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are rare neoplasms, but with increasing incidence and prevalence in the last decades. Although they may manifest in the most diverse tissues, the vast majority of cases will affect organs of the digestive tract and lung. At diagnosis, more than half of the cases present metastatic disease, and among patients with localized disease, up to one-third will have recurrence of the disease. Unfortunately, the minority of patients with metastatic disease are eligible for curative intent.1 Although there are many types of NET, they are often studied together as a group because their cells share common histological findings, have special secretory granules, and the ability to secrete bioactive amines and polypeptide hormones. Approximately 25 percent of the tumors present functional hormonal syndromes (situation of great morbidity for these patients), being the carcinoid syndrome, the most common one. From the molecular point of view, these neoplasias are largely dependent on the activation of the mTOR pathway and neoangiogenesis.2 Another striking feature of neuroendocrine cells is the expression of cell surface hormone receptors whose activation or blockade may exert an important regulatory function. -

PA is now widely recognized as the most common form of secondary hypertension. PA has a strong correlation with cardiovascular disease and failure to recognize and/or properly diagnose this condition has profound health consequences. With proper identification and management, PA has the potential to be surgically cured in a proportion of affected individuals. The diagnostic pursuit for PA is not a simplistic endeavor, particularly since an enhanced understanding of the disease process is continually redefining the diagnostic and treatment algorithm. -
A Simple Method to Measure Sulfonation in Man Using Paracetamol As Probe Drug Natália Marto 1,2*, Judit Morello1,3, Alexandra M
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN A simple method to measure sulfonation in man using paracetamol as probe drug Natália Marto 1,2*, Judit Morello1,3, Alexandra M. M. Antunes3, Sofa Azeredo4, Emília C. Monteiro1,5 & Sofa A. Pereira1,5 Sulfotransferase enzymes (SULT) catalyse sulfoconjugation of drugs, as well as endogenous mediators, gut microbiota metabolites and environmental xenobiotics. To address the limited evidence on sulfonation activity from clinical research, we developed a clinical metabolic phenotyping method using paracetamol as a probe substrate. Our aim was to estimate sulfonation capability of phenolic compounds and study its intraindividual variability in man. A total of 36 healthy adult volunteers (12 men, 12 women and 12 women on oral contraceptives) received paracetamol in a 1 g-tablet formulation on three separate occasions. Paracetamol and its metabolites were measured in plasma and spot urine samples using liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry. A metabolic ratio (Paracetamol Sulfonation Index—PSI) was used to estimate phenol SULT activity. PSI showed low intraindividual variability, with a good correlation between values in plasma and spot urine samples. Urinary PSI was independent of factors not related to SULT activity, such as urine pH or eGFR. Gender and oral contraceptive intake had no impact on PSI. Our SULT phenotyping method is a simple non-invasive procedure requiring urine spot samples, using the safe and convenient drug paracetamol as a probe substrate, and with low intraindividual coefcient of variation. Although it will not give us mechanistic information, it will provide us an empirical measure of an individual’s sulfonator status. To the best of our knowledge, our method provides the frst standardised in vivo empirical measure of an individual’s phenol sulfonation capability and of its intraindividual variability. -

Forendo Pharma announces the US licensing of fispemifene to Apricus Biosciences targeting urological conditions in men STOCKHOLM, October 20, 2014. Forendo Pharma Oy, a Karolinska Development AB portfolio company, announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement to out- license the US development and commercialization rights for fispemifene to Apricus Biosciences Inc. Forendo is entitled to success driven milestone payments totaling up to of $305 million plus sales royalties. Karolinska Development has an ownership of 21 percent in Forendo Pharma. Under the terms of the agreement, Apricus will make a $5 million upfront cash payment to Forendo, and will transfer approximately 3.6 million Apricus common shares, representing $7.5 million in value based on the 360-day average market price of the Apricus stock. The agreement includes additional potential clinical and regulatory milestones payments to Forendo for up to $45 million, including FDA approval, as well as commercial milestone payments totaling up to $260 million based on achieving specified annual net sales of fispemifene levels up to $1 billion in the US. Apricus will also pay tiered double-digit royalties based on net sales once the product is commercialized. Apricus will be responsible for the clinical development and costs of the program, as well as all future commercialization in the US. Apricus anticipates to commence a Phase IIb clinical trial during the first half of 2015 to confirm the optimal fispemifene doses to treat men with secondary hypogonadism, and provide proof-of-concept data to evaluate the anti-estrogenic and anti-inflammatory effects on the lower urinary tract and prostate in aging men.
