Identification of Differentially Expressed Genes in SHSY5Y Cells Valdiglesias et al. BMC Genomics 2012, 13:46 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/13/46 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Identification of differentially expressed genes in SHSY5Y cells exposed to okadaic acid by suppression subtractive hybridization Vanessa Valdiglesias1,2, Juan Fernández-Tajes2, Eduardo Pásaro1, Josefina Méndez2 and Blanca Laffon1* Abstract Background: Okadaic acid (OA), a toxin produced by several dinoflagellate species is responsible for frequent food poisonings associated to shellfish consumption. Although several studies have documented the OA effects on different processes such as cell transformation, apoptosis, DNA repair or embryogenesis, the molecular mechanistic basis for these and other effects is not completely understood and the number of controversial data on OA is increasing in the literature. Results: In this study, we used suppression subtractive hybridization in SHSY5Y cells to identify genes that are differentially expressed after OA exposure for different times (3, 24 and 48 h). A total of 247 subtracted clones which shared high homology with known genes were isolated. Among these, 5 specific genes associated with cytoskeleton and neurotransmission processes (NEFM, TUBB, SEPT7, SYT4 and NPY) were selected to confirm their expression levels by real-time PCR. Significant down-regulation of these genes was obtained at the short term (3 and 24 h OA exposure), excepting for NEFM, but their expression was similar to the controls at 48 h. Conclusions: From all the obtained genes, 114 genes were up-regulated and 133 were down-regulated. Based on the NCBI GenBank and Gene Ontology databases, most of these genes are involved in relevant cell functions such as metabolism, transport, translation, signal transduction and cell cycle. After quantitative PCR analysis, the observed underexpression of the selected genes could underlie the previously reported OA-induced cytoskeleton disruption, neurotransmission alterations and in vivo neurotoxic effects. The basal expression levels obtained at 48 h suggested that surviving cells were able to recover from OA-caused gene expression alterations.

Abstract: Septins are GTP-binding proteins that form heteromeric filaments for proper cell growth and migration. Among the septins, septin7 (SEPT7) is an important component of all septin filaments. Here we show that protein kinase A (PKA) phosphorylates SEPT7 at Thr197, thus disrupting septin filament dynamics and ciliogenesis. The Thr197 residue of SEPT7, a PKA phosphorylating site, was conserved among different species. Treatment with cAMP or overexpression of PKA catalytic subunit (PKACA2) induced SEPT7 phosphorylation, followed by disruption of septin filament formation. Constitutive phosphorylation of SEPT7 at Thr197 reduced SEPT7-SEPT7 interaction, but did not affect SEPT7-SEPT6-SEPT2 or SEPT4 interaction.

  • New Aspects for the Treatment of Cardiac Diseases Based on the Diversity of Functional Controls on Cardiac Muscles: Acute Effect

Regulation of cardiac ion channels by sex hormones accounts for gender differences in susceptibility to arrhythmias associated with QT prolongation (TdP). Women are more prone to develop TdP than men with either congenital or acquired long-QT syndrome. The risk of drug- induced TdP varies during the menstrual cycle, suggesting that dynamic changes in levels of ovarian steroids, estradiol and progesterone, have cyclical effects on cardiac repolarization. Although increasing evidence suggests that the mechanism of this involves effects of female hormones on cardiac repolarization, it has not been completely clarified. In addition to well- characterized transcriptional regulation of cardiac ion channels and their modifiers through nuclear hormone receptors, we recently reported that physiological levels of female hormones modify functions of cardiac ion channels in mammalian hearts. In this review, we introduce our recent findings showing that physiological levels of the two ovarian steroids have opposite effects on cardiac repolarization. These findings may explain the dynamic changes in risk of arrhythmia in women during the menstrual cycle and around delivery, and they provide clues to avoiding potentially lethal arrhythmias associated with QT prolongation.

However, their functional importance in breast cancer remains largely unclear. Here, we demonstrated that pharmaceutical inhibition of global septin dynamics would greatly suppress proliferation, migration and invasiveness in breast cancer cell lines. We then examined the expression and subcellular distribution of the selected septins SEPT2 and SEPT7 in breast cancer cells, revealing a rather variable localization of the two proteins with cell cycle progression.

THE BIOLOGICAL ACTIONS OF DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE INVOLVES MULTIPLE RECEPTORS Stephanie J. Webb, Thomas E. Geoghegan, and Russell A. Prough Department of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, University of Louisville School of Medicine, Louisville, Kentucky, USA Kristy K. Michael Miller Department of Chemistry, University of Evansville, Evansville, Indiana, USA Abstract Dehydroepiandrosterone has been thought to have physiological functions other than as an androgen precursor. The previous studies performed have demonstrated a number of biological effects in rodents, such as amelioration of disease in diabetic, chemical carcinogenesis, and obesity models. To date, activation of the peroxisome proliferators activated receptor alpha, pregnane X receptor, and estrogen receptor by DHEA and its metabolites have been demonstrated. Several membrane- associated receptors have also been elucidated leading to additional mechanisms by which DHEA may exert its biological effects. This review will provide an overview of the receptor multiplicity involved in the biological activity of this sterol.

ABSTRACT Aim. Helicobacter pylori cytotoxin-associated protein A (CagA) is an important vir- ulence factor known to induce gastric cancer development. However, the cause and the underlying molecular events of CagA induction remain unclear. Here, we applied integrated bioinformatics to identify the key genes involved in the process of CagA- induced gastric epithelial cell inflammation and can ceration to comprehend the potential molecular mechanisms involved. Materials and Methods. AGS cells were transected with pcDNA3.1 and pcDNA3.1::CagA for 24 h. The transfected cells were subjected to transcriptome sequencing to obtain the expressed genes. Differentially expressed genes (DEG) with adjusted P value < 0.05, | logFC |> 2 were screened, and the R package was applied for gene ontology (GO) enrichment and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. The differential gene protein–protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed using the STRING Cytoscape application, which conducted visual analysis to create the key function networks and identify the key genes. Next, the Submitted 20 August 2020 Kaplan–Meier plotter survival analysis tool was employed to analyze the survival of the Accepted 11 March 2021 key genes derived from the PPI network. Further analysis of the key gene expressions Published 15 April 2021 in gastric cancer and normal tissues were performed based on The Cancer Genome Corresponding author Atlas (TCGA) database and RT-qPCR verification.
