III Abstract Proteins of anoctamin (TMEM16) family are the candidate subunits for Ca2+- activated Cl- channels (CaCC). In recent years, studies have shown that anoctamin-1 (TMEM16A or ANO1) plays important physiological roles in processes including epithelial fluid secretion, muscle contraction and olfactory transduction. How the Ca2+ regulates the activity of ANO1 in different tissue is still not clear. In this study, I showed that the excitatory CaCC in nociceptors (small-diameter sensory neurons that are responsible for transmission of painful stimuli) was activated by 2+ the release of Ca from the 1, 4, 5-trisphosphate (IP3)-sensitive intracellular stores in response to bradykinin (BK) or proteases (through protease activated receptor 2). Interestingly, while in the majority of nociceptors, CaCC was induced by Ca2+ release from the stores, only in a few neurons CaCC was activated by the Ca2+ influx through the voltage-gated Ca2+ channels (VGCC). Chelating intracellular Ca2+ with the slow Ca2+ buffer EGTA did not affect CaCC activation by protease activated receptor 2 (PAR2), while BAPTA abolished such activation, suggesting a close proximity of the Ca2+ release sites and CaCC. Membrane fractionation demonstrated that in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG), ANO1, bradykinin receptor 2 (B2R) or PAR2, were co-purified with lipid raft marker caveolin-1. Using various biochemical approaches I further demonstrated that ANO1 physically interacted with the IP3 receptor 1 (IP3R1) in DRG. Moreover, IP3R1, ANO1, B2R, and/or PAR2 were all assembled into functional signalling complexes and the plasma membrane components of the complex which contained ANO1 and GPCRs were tethered to the juxtamembrane regions of the endoplasmic reticulum. Disruption of the membrane microdomains by methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (MβCD) or competitive peptides partially restored coupling of CaCC to VGCC but disrupted coupling between B2R or PAR2 signaling and ANO1. Thus, such molecular complexes dichotomize different Ca2+ sources to provide ANO1-mediated excitation in response to specific ambient signals but protect the channels from global changes in intracellular Ca2+ and prevent sensory neurons from overexcitability.

They are known as water channels, but they also facilitate the transport of small solutes, gasses, and monovalent cations. To date, 13 different AQPs, encoded by the genes AQP0–AQP12, have been identified in mammals, which regulate various important biological functions in kidney, brain, lung, digestive system, eye, and skin. Consequently, dysfunction of AQPs is involved in a wide variety of disorders. AQPs are also present in the heart, even with a specific distribution pattern in cardiomyocytes, but whether their presence is essential for proper (electro)physiological cardiac function has not intensively been studied. This review summarizes recent findings and highlights the involvement of AQPs in normal and pathological cardiac function. We conclude that AQPs are at least implicated in proper cardiac water homeostasis and energy balance as well as heart failure and arsenic cardiotoxicity. However, this review also demonstrates that many effects of cardiac AQPs, especially on excitation-contraction coupling processes, are virtually unexplored.

  • Application of Biomarker Compounds As Tracers for Sources and Fates of Natural and Anthropogenic Organic Matter in Tile Environment
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Daniel R. Oros for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Sciences presented on September 24. 1999. Title: Application of Biomarker Compoundsas Tracers for Sources and Fates of Natural and Anthropogenic Organic Matter in the Environment. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Bernd R.T. Simoneit Determination of the source and fate of natural (higher plant lipids, marine lipids, etc.) and anthropogenically (e.g., petroleum, coal emissions) derived hydrocarbons and oxygenated compounds in the environment was accomplished using gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC- MS) to characterize or identify molecular biomarkers to be utilized as tracers. The distributions and abundances of biomarkers such as straight chain homologous series (e.g., n-alkanes, n-alkanoic acids, n-alkan-2-ones, n-alkanols, etc.) and cyclic terpenoid compounds (e.g., sesquiterpenoids, diterpenoids, steroids, triterpenoids) were identified in epicuticular waxes from conifers of western North America (natural emissions). These biomarkers and their thermal alteration derivativeswere also identified in smoke emissions from known vegetation sources (e.g., conifers, deciduous trees and grasses) and were then applied as tracers in soils, soils that contained wildfire residues and soillriver mud washout after wildfire burning. Where possible, the reaction pathways of transformation from the parentprecursor compounds to intermediate and final alteration products were determined from GC- MS data. In addition, molecular tracer analysis was applied to air, water and sediment samples collected from a lacustrine setting (Crater Lake, OR) in order to determine the identities, levels and fates of anthropogenic (i.e., petroleum hydrocarbon contamination from boating and related activities) hydrocarbons ina pristine organic matter sink.

However, the overall impact of ion channels on tumorigenicity in breast cancer remains controversial. Methods: We conduct microarray meta-analysis on 280 ion channel genes. We identify candidate ion channels that are implicated in breast cancer based on gene expression profiling. We test the relationship between the expression of ion channel genes and p53 mutation status, ER status, and histological tumor grade in the discovery cohort. A molecular signature consisting of ion channel genes (IC30) is identified by Spearman’s rank correlation test conducted between tumor grade and gene expression. A risk scoring system is developed based on IC30. We test the prognostic power of IC30 in the discovery and seven validation cohorts by both Cox proportional hazard regression and log-rank test.

  • Determination of Terpenoid Content in Pine by Organic Solvent Extraction and Fast-Gc Analysis
    ORIGINAL RESEARCH published: 25 January 2016 doi: 10.3389/fenrg.2016.00002 Determination of Terpenoid Content in Pine by Organic Solvent Extraction and Fast-GC Analysis Anne E. Harman-Ware1* , Robert Sykes1 , Gary F. Peter2 and Mark Davis1 1 National Bioenergy Center, National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Golden, CO, USA, 2 School of Forest Resources and Conservation, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, USA Terpenoids, naturally occurring compounds derived from isoprene units present in pine oleoresin, are a valuable source of chemicals used in solvents, fragrances, flavors, and have shown potential use as a biofuel. This paper describes a method to extract and analyze the terpenoids present in loblolly pine saplings and pine lighter wood. Various extraction solvents were tested over different times and temperatures. Samples were analyzed by pyrolysis-molecular beam mass spectrometry before and after extractions to monitor the extraction efficiency. The pyrolysis studies indicated that the optimal extraction method used a 1:1 hexane/acetone solvent system at 22°C for 1 h. Extracts from the hexane/acetone experiments were analyzed using a low thermal mass modular accelerated column heater for fast-GC/FID analysis.
