The transcript profiles were first analysed by a modified protocol for representational difference analysis (RDA) of cDNAs between MCF7 and MDA-MB-231 cells. The majority of genes identified by RDA showed nearly complete con- Introduction cordance withmicroarray results, and also led to the identification of some differentially expressed genes such The transformation of a normal cell into a cancer cell as lysyl oxidase, copper transporter ATP7A, EphB6, has been correlated to altered expression of a variety of RUNX2 and a variant of RUNX2. The altered transcripts genes (Perou et al., 2000; Becker et al., 2005).

New Approach for Untangling the Role of Uncommon Calcium-Binding Proteins in the Central Nervous System
brain sciences Review New Approach for Untangling the Role of Uncommon Calcium-Binding Proteins in the Central Nervous System Krisztina Kelemen * and Tibor Szilágyi Department of Physiology, Doctoral School, Faculty of Medicine, George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science, and Technology of Targu Mures, 540142 Târgu Mures, , Romania; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +40-746-248064 Abstract: Although Ca2+ ion plays an essential role in cellular physiology, calcium-binding proteins (CaBPs) were long used for mainly as immunohistochemical markers of specific cell types in different regions of the central nervous system. They are a heterogeneous and wide-ranging group of proteins. Their function was studied intensively in the last two decades and a tremendous amount of informa- tion was gathered about them. Girard et al. compiled a comprehensive list of the gene-expression profiles of the entire EF-hand gene superfamily in the murine brain. We selected from this database those CaBPs which are related to information processing and/or neuronal signalling, have a Ca2+- buffer activity, Ca2+-sensor activity, modulator of Ca2+-channel activity, or a yet unknown function. In this way we created a gene function-based selection of the CaBPs. We cross-referenced these findings with publicly available, high-quality RNA-sequencing and in situ hybridization databases (Human Protein Atlas (HPA), Brain RNA-seq database and Allen Brain Atlas integrated into the HPA) and created gene expression heat maps of the regional and cell type-specific expression levels of the selected CaBPs. This represents a useful tool to predict and investigate different expression patterns and functions of the less-known CaBPs of the central nervous system. -

Published 28 January 2015 Oxidative stress and apoptosis are involved in Ochratoxin A (OTA)-induced renal cytotoxicity. Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) is a Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Kinase Kinase (MAPKKK, Correspondence and MAP3K) family member that plays an important role in oxidative stress-induced cell apoptosis. In this study, we performed RNA interference of ASK1 in HEK293 cells and employed an iTRAQ-based requests for materials quantitative proteomics approach to globally investigate the regulatory mechanism of ASK1 in should be addressed to OTA-induced renal cytotoxicity. Our results showed that ASK1 knockdown alleviated OTA-induced ROS W.X. (xuwentao@cau. generation and Dym loss and thus desensitized the cells to OTA-induced apoptosis. We identified 33 and 24 edu.cn) differentially expressed proteins upon OTA treatment in scrambled and ASK1 knockdown cells, respectively. Pathway classification and analysis revealed that ASK1 participated in OTA-induced inhibition of mRNA splicing, nucleotide metabolism, the cell cycle, DNA repair, and the activation of lipid metabolism. We concluded that ASK1 plays an essential role in promoting OTA-induced renal cytotoxicity. -
RCN1 Suppresses ER Stress-Induced Apoptosis Via Calcium Homeostasis and PERK–CHOP Signaling
OPEN Citation: Oncogenesis (2017) 6, e304; doi:10.1038/oncsis.2017.6 www.nature.com/oncsis ORIGINAL ARTICLE RCN1 suppresses ER stress-induced apoptosis via calcium homeostasis and PERK–CHOP signaling SXu1,3,YXu1,3, L Chen1, Q Fang1, S Song1, J Chen1,2,4 and J Teng1,4 Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is caused by the disturbance of ER homeostasis and leads to the activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR), which alleviates stress at an early stage and triggers apoptosis if homeostasis fails over a prolonged timeframe. Here, we report that reticulocalbin 1 (RCN1), a member of the CREC family, is transactivated by nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) during ER stress and inhibits ER stress-induced apoptosis. The depletion of RCN1 increases the UPR during drug-induced ER stress by activating PRKR-like ER kinase–CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-homologous protein (PERK–CHOP) signaling, thus inducing apoptosis. Furthermore, we found that the first two EF-hand calcium-binding motifs of RCN1 specifically interact with inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptor type 1 (IP3R1) on loop 3 of its ER luminal domain and inhibit ER calcium release and apoptosis. Together, these data indicate that RCN1, a target of NF-κB, suppresses ER calcium release by binding to IP3R1 and decreases the UPR, thereby inhibiting ER stress-induced apoptosis.
