The study is focused on the conserved patterns of the G protein-coupled receptors, an important superfamily of receptors. Olfactory receptors represent more than 2% of our genome and constitute the largest family of G protein-coupled receptors, a key class of drug targets. As no crystallographic structures are available, mechanistic studies rely on the use of molecular dynamic modelling combined with site-directed mutagenesis data. In this paper, we hypothesized that human-mouse orthologs coding for G protein-coupled receptors maintain, at speciation events, shared compositional structures independent, to some extent, of their percent identity as reveals a method based in the categorization of nucleotide triplets by their gross composition. The data support the consistency of the hypothesis, showing in ortholog G protein-coupled receptors the presence of emergent shared compositional structures preserved at speciation events.

  • Onset of Taste Bud Cell Renewal Starts at Birth and Coincides with a Shift In
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Onset of taste bud cell renewal starts at birth and coincides with a shift in SHH function Erin J Golden1,2, Eric D Larson2,3, Lauren A Shechtman1,2, G Devon Trahan4, Dany Gaillard1,2, Timothy J Fellin1,2, Jennifer K Scott1,2, Kenneth L Jones4, Linda A Barlow1,2* 1Department of Cell & Developmental Biology, University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, Aurora, United States; 2The Rocky Mountain Taste and Smell Center, University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, Aurora, United States; 3Department of Otolaryngology, University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, Aurora, United States; 4Department of Pediatrics, Section of Hematology, Oncology, and Bone Marrow Transplant, University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, Aurora, United States Abstract Embryonic taste bud primordia are specified as taste placodes on the tongue surface and differentiate into the first taste receptor cells (TRCs) at birth. Throughout adult life, TRCs are continually regenerated from epithelial progenitors. Sonic hedgehog (SHH) signaling regulates TRC development and renewal, repressing taste fate embryonically, but promoting TRC differentiation in adults. Here, using mouse models, we show TRC renewal initiates at birth and coincides with onset of SHHs pro-taste function. Using transcriptional profiling to explore molecular regulators of renewal, we identified Foxa1 and Foxa2 as potential SHH target genes in lingual progenitors at birth and show that SHH overexpression in vivo alters FoxA1 and FoxA2 expression relevant to taste buds. We further bioinformatically identify genes relevant to cell adhesion and cell *For correspondence: locomotion likely regulated by FOXA1;FOXA2 and show that expression of these candidates is also LINDA.BARLOW@CUANSCHUTZ. altered by forced SHH expression.

Snyder, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, and approved January 5, 2018 (received for review June 23, 2017) Regulator of G protein signaling z1 (RGSz1), a member of the RGS studies have documented brain region-specific effects of other family of proteins, is present in several networks expressing mu RGS proteins (RGS9-2, RGS7, and RGS4) (29–33) on the opioid receptors (MOPRs). By using genetic mouse models for global functional responses of MOPRs, the role of RGSz1 in opioid or brain region-targeted manipulations of RGSz1 expression, we actions is not known. We hypothesized that the expression and demonstrated that the suppression of RGSz1 function increases the activity of RGSz1 are altered by chronic opioid use and that the analgesic efficacy of MOPR agonists in male and female mice and manipulation of RGSz1 expression will impact the development delays the development of morphine tolerance while decreasing the of tolerance to the drug and its analgesic and rewarding effects.

  • Transcriptomic Analysis of Cortical Versus Cancellous Bone in Response to Mechanical Loading and Estrogen Signaling
    TRANSCRIPTOMIC ANALYSIS OF CORTICAL VERSUS CANCELLOUS BONE IN RESPONSE TO MECHANICAL LOADING AND ESTROGEN SIGNALING A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Natalie H Kelly January 2017 © 2017 Natalie H Kelly TRANSCRIPTOMIC ANALYSIS OF CORTICAL VERSUS CANCELLOUS BONE IN RESPONSE TO MECHANICAL LOADING AND ESTROGEN SIGNALING Natalie H Kelly, Ph. D. Cornell University 2017 Osteoporosis is a skeletal disease characterized by low bone mass that often results in fracture. Mechanical loading of the skeleton is a promising approach to maintain or recover bone mass. Mouse models of in vivo loading differentially increase bone mass in cortical and cancellous sites. The molecular mechanisms behind this anabolic response to mechanical loading need to be determined and compared between cortical and cancellous bone. This knowledge could enhance the development of drug therapies to increase bone formation in osteoporotic patients. After developing a method to isolate high-quality RNA from marrow- free mouse cortical and cancellous bone, differences in gene transcription were determined at baseline and at two time points following mechanical loading of wild-type mice. Cortical and cancellous bone exhibited different transcriptional profiles at baseline and in response to mechanical loading. Enhanced Wnt signaling dominated the response in cortical bone at both time points, but in cancellous bone only at the early time point. In cancellous bone at the later time point, many muscle-related genes were downregulated. Decreased bioavailable estrogen levels are a major cause of bone loss in postmenopausal women.
