We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

  • Actin Nucleator Spire 1 Is a Regulator of Ectoplasmic Specialization in the Testis Qing Wen1,Nanli1,Xiangxiao 1,2,Wing-Yeelui3, Darren S
    Wen et al. Cell Death and Disease (2018) 9:208 DOI 10.1038/s41419-017-0201-6 Cell Death & Disease ARTICLE Open Access Actin nucleator Spire 1 is a regulator of ectoplasmic specialization in the testis Qing Wen1,NanLi1,XiangXiao 1,2,Wing-yeeLui3, Darren S. Chu1, Chris K. C. Wong4, Qingquan Lian5,RenshanGe5, Will M. Lee3, Bruno Silvestrini6 and C. Yan Cheng 1 Abstract Germ cell differentiation during the epithelial cycle of spermatogenesis is accompanied by extensive remodeling at the Sertoli cell–cell and Sertoli cell–spermatid interface to accommodate the transport of preleptotene spermatocytes and developing spermatids across the blood–testis barrier (BTB) and the adluminal compartment of the seminiferous epithelium, respectively. The unique cell junction in the testis is the actin-rich ectoplasmic specialization (ES) designated basal ES at the Sertoli cell–cell interface, and the apical ES at the Sertoli–spermatid interface. Since ES dynamics (i.e., disassembly, reassembly and stabilization) are supported by actin microfilaments, which rapidly converts between their bundled and unbundled/branched configuration to confer plasticity to the ES, it is logical to speculate that actin nucleation proteins play a crucial role to ES dynamics. Herein, we reported findings that Spire 1, an actin nucleator known to polymerize actins into long stretches of linear microfilaments in cells, is an important regulator of ES dynamics. Its knockdown by RNAi in Sertoli cells cultured in vitro was found to impede the Sertoli cell tight junction (TJ)-permeability barrier through changes in the organization of F-actin across Sertoli cell cytosol. Unexpectedly, Spire 1 knockdown also perturbed microtubule (MT) organization in Sertoli cells cultured in vitro.

  • Biological and Prognostic Significance of Chromosome 5Q Deletions in Myeloid Malignancies Aristoteles A.N
    Review Biological and Prognostic Significance of Chromosome 5q Deletions in Myeloid Malignancies Aristoteles A.N. Giagounidis,1Ulrich Germing,2 and Carlo Aul1 Abstract The presence of del(5q), either as the sole karyotypic abnormality or as part of a more complex karyotype, has distinct clinical implications for myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia. The 5qÀ syndrome, a subtype of low-riskMDS, is characterized by an isolated 5q deletion and <5% blasts in the bone marrow and can serve as a useful model for studying the role of 5q deletions in the pathogenesis and prognosis of myeloid malignancies. Recent clinical results with lenalidomide, an oral immunomodulatory drug, have shown durable erythroid responses, including transfusion independence and complete cytogenetic remissions in patients with del(5q) MDS with or without additional chromosomal abnormalities. These results indicate that lenalidomide can overcome the pathogenic effect of 5q deletion in MDS and restore bone marrow balance. The data provide important new insights into the pathobiology of 5q chromo- somal deletions in myeloid malignancies. Cytogenetic abnormalities are detected in the bone marrow of preponderance, refractory macrocytic anemia, normal or high over 50% of patients diagnosed with primary myelodysplastic platelet counts, hypolobulated megakaryocytes, and modest syndromes (MDS) or myeloid leukemias, and up to 80% of leukopenia (11, 14, 17). The prognosis is favorable in 5qÀ patients with secondary or therapy-related MDS (1, 2). These syndrome with relatively low risk of transformation to AML abnormalities can be characterized as being balanced or (11, 18). Although the limits of 5q deletions vary among unbalanced (3, 4). Balanced cytogenetic abnormalities include patients with 5qÀ syndrome, the most frequent deletion is reciprocal translocations, inversions, and insertions (3, 5, 6).

  • Applying Expression Profile Similarity for Discovery of Patient-Specific

Applying expression profile similarity for discovery of patient-specific functional mutations Guofeng Meng Partner Institute of Computational Biology, Yueyang 333, Shanghai, China email: [email protected] Abstract The progress of cancer genome sequencing projects yields unprecedented information of mutations for numerous patients. However, the complexity of mutation profiles of patients hinders the further understanding of mechanisms of oncogenesis. One basic question is how to uncover mutations with functional impacts. In this work, we introduce a computational method to predict functional somatic mutations for each of patient by integrating mutation recurrence with similarity of expression profiles of patients. With this method, the functional mutations are determined by checking the mutation enrichment among a group of patients with similar expression profiles. We applied this method to three cancer types and identified the functional mutations. Comparison of the predictions for three cancer types suggested that most of the functional mutations were cancer-type-specific with one exception to p53. By checking prediction results, we found that our method effectively filtered non-functional mutations resulting from large protein sizes. In addition, this methods can also perform functional annotation to each patient to describe their association with signalling pathways or biological processes. In breast cancer, we predicted "cell adhesion" and other mutated gene associated terms to be significantly enriched among patients.

Kaestner2,4 & Katalin Susztak 1,2,4 1234567890():,; Determining the epigenetic program that generates unique cell types in the kidney is critical for understanding cell-type heterogeneity during tissue homeostasis and injury response. Here, we profile open chromatin and gene expression in developing and adult mouse kidneys at single cell resolution. We show critical reliance of gene expression on distal regulatory elements (enhancers). We reveal key cell type-specific transcription factors and major gene- regulatory circuits for kidney cells. Dynamic chromatin and expression changes during nephron progenitor differentiation demonstrates that podocyte commitment occurs early and is associated with sustained Foxl1 expression. Renal tubule cells follow a more complex differentiation, where Hfn4a is associated with proximal and Tfap2b with distal fate. Mapping single nucleotide variants associated with human kidney disease implicates critical cell types, developmental stages, genes, and regulatory mechanisms. The single cell multi-omics atlas reveals key chromatin remodeling events and gene expression dynamics associated with kidney development. 1 Renal, Electrolyte, and Hypertension Division, Department of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Perelman School of Medicine, Philadelphia, PA, USA. 2 Institute for Diabetes, Obesity, and Metabolism, University of Pennsylvania, Perelman School of Medicine, Philadelphia, PA, USA.

Our recently launched Version 4 has a revamped infrastructure facilitating faster data updates, better-targeted data queries, and friendlier user experience. It also provides a stronger foundation for the GeneCards suite of companion databases and analysis tools. Improved data unification includes gene-disease links via MalaCards and merged biological pathways via PathCards, as well as drug information and proteome expression. VarElect, another suite member, is a phenotype prioritizer for next-generation sequencing, leveraging the GeneCards and MalaCards knowledgebase. It au- tomatically infers direct and indirect scored associations between hundreds or even thousands of variant-containing genes and disease phenotype terms. Var- Elect’s capabilities, either independently or within TGex, our comprehensive variant analysis pipeline, help prepare for the challenge of clinical projects that involve thousands of exome/genome NGS analyses.

  • Site-Specific and Common Prostate Cancer Metastasis Genes
    life Article Site-Specific and Common Prostate Cancer Metastasis Genes as Suggested by Meta-Analysis of Gene Expression Data Ivana Samaržija 1,2 1 Laboratory for Epigenomics, Division of Molecular Medicine, Ruder¯ Boškovi´cInstitute, Bijeniˇcka54, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia; [email protected] 2 Laboratory for Cell Biology and Signalling, Division of Molecular Biology, Ruder¯ Boškovi´cInstitute, Bijeniˇcka54, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia Abstract: Anticancer therapies mainly target primary tumor growth and little attention is given to the events driving metastasis formation. Metastatic prostate cancer, in comparison to localized disease, has a much worse prognosis. In the work presented here, groups of genes that are common to prostate cancer metastatic cells from bones, lymph nodes, and liver and those that are site-specific were delineated. The purpose of the study was to dissect potential markers and targets of anticancer therapies considering the common characteristics and differences in transcriptional programs of metastatic cells from different secondary sites. To that end, a meta-analysis of gene expression data of prostate cancer datasets from the GEO database was conducted. Genes with differential expression in all metastatic sites analyzed belong to the class of filaments, focal adhesion, and androgen receptor signaling. Bone metastases undergo the largest transcriptional changes that are highly enriched for the term of the chemokine signaling pathway, while lymph node metastasis show perturbation in signaling cascades. Liver metastases change the expression of genes in a way that is reminiscent of processes that take place in the target organ. Survival analysis for the common hub genes revealed Citation: Samaržija, I. Site-Specific involvements in prostate cancer prognosis and suggested potential biomarkers.
