TEs induction triggers a robust and durable interferon (IFN) response, providing a host defense mechanism. Still, the connection between SARS-CoV-2 IFN response and TEs remained unexplored. Here, we analyzed TE expression changes in response to SARS-CoV-2 infection in different human cellular models.

Abstract: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a common disorder involving depressive mood and decreased motivation. Due to its high heterogeneity, novel biomarkers are required to diagnose MDD. In this study, a proteomic method was used to identify a new MDD biomarker. Using sequential window acquisition of all theoretical mass spectra acquisitions and multiple reaction monitoring analysis via mass spectrometry, relative and absolute quantification of proteins in the sera was per- formed. The results of the relative quantitation by sequential window acquisition for all theoretical mass spectra data showed that seven proteins were significantly differently expressed between MDD Citation: Choi, H.; Mun, S.; Joo, E.-J.; Lee, K.Y.; Kang, H.-G.; Lee, J.

  • The Structure, Function and Evolution of the Extracellular Matrix: a Systems-Level Analysis
    The Structure, Function and Evolution of the Extracellular Matrix: A Systems-Level Analysis by Graham L. Cromar A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Molecular Genetics University of Toronto © Copyright by Graham L. Cromar 2014 ii The Structure, Function and Evolution of the Extracellular Matrix: A Systems-Level Analysis Graham L. Cromar Doctor of Philosophy Department of Molecular Genetics University of Toronto 2014 Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a three-dimensional meshwork of proteins, proteoglycans and polysaccharides imparting structure and mechanical stability to tissues. ECM dysfunction has been implicated in a number of debilitating conditions including cancer, atherosclerosis, asthma, fibrosis and arthritis. Identifying the components that comprise the ECM and understanding how they are organised within the matrix is key to uncovering its role in health and disease. This study defines a rigorous protocol for the rapid categorization of proteins comprising a biological system. Beginning with over 2000 candidate extracellular proteins, 357 core ECM genes and 524 functionally related (non-ECM) genes are identified. A network of high quality protein-protein interactions constructed from these core genes reveals the ECM is organised into biologically relevant functional modules whose components exhibit a mosaic of expression and conservation patterns. This suggests module innovations were widespread and evolved in parallel to convey tissue specific functionality on otherwise broadly expressed modules. Phylogenetic profiles of ECM proteins highlight components restricted and/or expanded in metazoans, vertebrates and mammals, indicating taxon-specific tissue innovations. Modules enriched for medical subject headings illustrate the potential for systems based analyses to predict new functional and disease associations on the basis of network topology.

  • (SAA) Gene Cluster: Isoform Specific Responses to Bacterial Infection
    Organization and Biology of the Porcine Serum Amyloid A (SAA) Gene Cluster: Isoform Specific Responses to Bacterial Infection Helle G. Olsen1, Kerstin Skovgaard2, Ole L. Nielsen1,Pa´ll S. Leifsson1, Henrik E. Jensen1, Tine Iburg1¤, Peter M. H. Heegaard2* 1 Department of Veterinary Disease Biology, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen, Frederiksberg, Denmark, 2 Innate Immunology Group, National Veterinary Institute, Technical University of Denmark, Frederiksberg, Denmark Abstract Serum amyloid A (SAA) is a prominent acute phase protein. Although its biological functions are debated, the wide species distribution of highly homologous SAA proteins and their uniform behavior in response to injury or inflammation in itself suggests a significant role for this protein. The pig is increasingly being used as a model for the study of inflammatory reactions, yet only little is known about how specific SAA genes are regulated in the pig during acute phase responses and other responses induced by pro-inflammatory host mediators. We designed SAA gene specific primers and quantified the gene expression of porcine SAA1, SAA2, SAA3, and SAA4 by reverse transcriptase quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) in liver, spleen, and lung tissue from pigs experimentally infected with the Gram-negative swine specific bacterium Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, as well as from pigs experimentally infected with the Gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus. Our results show that: 1) SAA1 may be a pseudogene in pigs; 2) we were able to detect two previously uncharacterized SAA transcripts, namely SAA2 and SAA4, of which the SAA2 transcript is primarily induced in the liver during acute infection and presumably contributes to circulating SAA in pigs; 3) Porcine SAA3 transcription is induced both hepatically and extrahepatically during acute infection, and may be correlated to local organ affection; 4) Hepatic transcription of SAA4 is markedly induced in pigs infected with A.

Here, we measured genomic transcriptional responses and mRNA accumulation changes after PH and sham surgeries. Results: During the frst 10–20 h, the PH- and sham-surgery responses were very similar, including parallel early activation of cell-division-cycle genes. After 20 h, however, whereas post-PH livers continued with a robust and coor- dinate cell-division-cycle gene-expression response before returning to the resting state by 1 week, sham-surgery livers returned directly to a resting gene-expression state. Localization of RNA polymerase II (Pol II), and trimethylated histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4me3) and 36 (H3K36me3) on genes dormant in the resting liver and activated during the PH response revealed a general de novo promoter Pol II recruitment and H3K4me3 increase during the early 10–20 h phase followed by Pol II elongation and H3K36me3 accumulation in gene bodies during the later proliferation phase. H3K36me3, generally appearing at the frst internal exon, was preceded 5′ by H3K36me2; 3′ of the frst internal exon, in about half of genes H3K36me3 predominated and in the other half H3K36me2 and H3K36me3 co-existed.

BACKGROUND Introduction Serum amyloid A (SAA) proteins are a family of apolipoproteins associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in plasma. Different isoforms of SAA are expressed constitutively (constitutive SAAs) at different levels or in response to inflammatory stimuli (acute phase SAAs). These proteins are produced predominantly by the liver. The conservation of these proteins throughout invertebrates and vertebrates suggests that SAAs play a highly essential role in all animals.

A previous functional complementation approach and the subsequent cDNA microarray analysis have identified that serum amyloid A1 (SAA1) is an NPC candidate tumor suppressor gene. SAA1 belongs to a family of acute-phase proteins that are encoded by five polymorphic coding alleles. The SAA1 genotyping results showed that only three SAA1 isoforms (SAA1.1, 1.3 and 1.5) were observed in both Hong Kong NPC patients and healthy individuals. This study aims to determine the functional role of SAA1 polymorphisms in tumor progression and to investigate the relationship between SAA1 polymorphisms and NPC risk. Indeed, we have shown that restoration of SAA1.1 and 1.3 in the SAA1-deficient NPC cell lines could suppress tumor formation and angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo. The secreted SAA1.1 and SAA1.3 proteins can block cell adhesion and induce apoptosis in the vascular endothelial cells. In contrast, the SAA1.5 cannot induce apoptosis or inhibit angiogenesis because of its weaker binding affinity to αVβ3 integrin.
