Quem pode contar os grãos de areia do mar, as gotas de chuva, os dias do tempo? Quem pode medir a altura do céu, a extensão da terra, a profundidade do abismo? Quem pode penetrar a sabedoria divina, anterior a tudo? A sabedoria foi criada antes de todas as coisas, a inteligência prudente existe antes dos séculos! O verbo de Deus nos céus é fonte de sabedoria, seus caminhos são os mandamentos eternos (ECLESIÁSTICO 1: 1-5). 6 RESUMO O câncer é definido como uma enfermidade caracterizada pelo crescimento descontrolado das células. É apontado como uma das principais causas de morte no mundo. Existem vários tipos de cânceres, sendo os mais frequentes na população masculina próstata, pulmão, cólon e reto. Entre as mulheres são mais comuns: mama, cólon, reto e pulmão. Contudo, o câncer de melanoma cutâneo é um tipo de câncer que vem apresentando um dos maiores índices de crescimento na última década. O melanoma inicia-se nos melanócitos, os quais são células que produzem a melanina e que garantem a proteção contra os danos causados pela radiação ultravioleta (UV). O desenvolvimento do melanoma é resultado de alterações no DNA. O estudo sobre o funcionamento de diversos genes vem sendo auxiliado pelas ferramentas de bioinformática. O objetivo deste trabalho foi identificar genes que podem estar envolvidos no desenvolvimento e/ou manutenção do câncer de pele melanoma e realizar uma comparação com os genes envolvidos na manutenção de uma pele saudável, através de pesquisa bibliográfica, bancos de dados genômicos e, sobretudo, com a utilização de ferramentas de bioinformática. Para a identificação dos genes envolvidos ou potencialmente envolvidos que foram analisados quanto a sua relação com o melanoma, utilizou-se como referência artigos científicos, livros, dissertações e teses da base de dados Pubmed. Após a identificação dos genes, as interações entre eles foram mapeadas, e um escore referente a essa interação, foi definida através do banco de dados STRING (Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins). Com base nesse escore, os genes foram agrupados usando o algoritmo de classificação K-means. Os genes do grupo que obteve o maior escore foram chamados genes líderes. Os outros grupos foram classificados por “B”, “C”, “D” e assim sucessivamente, de acordo com a força do escore. O estudo foi complementado por uma análise topológica dessa interação com os softwares Cytoscape, enquanto uma análise ontológica foi realizada com o software BinGO. A analise realizada permitiu sugerir genes com forte interação para o câncer de pele melanoma. Os genes líderes sugeridos foram o TP53, porém os genes pertencentes aos grupos B, C, e D (AKT1, JUN, STAT3 e MYC) também apresentaram escore relevante e obtiveram destaque no trabalho. Para a pele saudável, os genes líderes sugeridos foram o UBC, porém os genes dos grupos B, C, e D (TP53, JUN, AKT1, CREBBP, EP300 e SRC) também apresentaram o escore relevante. Uma comparação entre os genes identificados para câncer de pele melanoma e os genes da pele saudável, também foi realizada, sugerindo genes 7 que podem estar ativos, silenciados, ou apresentando variações em suas funções para este tipo de câncer. Palavras chave: bioinformática; câncer; melanoma; genes; pele; líder (res). 8 ABSTRACT Cancer is defined as a illness characterized by the uncontrolled growing of cells. It is appointed as the main cause of deaths in world. There are several types of cancers, being the most frequents in the male population: prostate, lung, colon and rectum. Among the women are more common: breast, colon, rectum and lung. However, cancer of cutaneous melanoma is a type of cancer which is showing one of the highest factors of growing on the last decade. Melanoma is started on melanocytes that are the cells that produce melanin and that staff the protection against the damages caused by the UV radiation. The development of melanoma is result of alterations on genes. The study of working of these genes has been helped by bioinformatic's tools. The purpose of this work was identify genes that can make part of development and maintenance of the skin cancer melanoma and make a comparison with the genes that make part of maintenance of healthy skin, through bibliographic search, genomic databases and mainly through the utilization of bioinformatic's tools. To identify the genes that potentially make part of the development and maintenance of the skin cancer and that had an analysis on their relations with the melanoma were utilized as reference: scientific articles, books, compositions and theses of Pubmed database. After the genes identification, their interactions were mapped, and a score (which was named WNL - Weighted Number of Links) relative to this interaction, was defined through STRING database (Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/Proteins). Based on this score, genes were grouped through the K-means classification algorithm. Genes of the group with the highest WNL were named leader genes. The others groups were classified as "B", "C", "D" etc. according to WNL. The study was completed with an topologic analysis of this interaction with the software Cytoscape, while an ontological analysis was made with the software BinGO. The analysis allowed suggest genes with a strong interaction with the skin cancer melanoma. The suggested leader genes were TP53's, but genes that belong to groups B, C, and D (AKT1, JUN, STAT3 and MYC) have also shown relevant WNL and got emphasis in this work. Suggested leader genes on healthy skin were UBC, but the genes of groups B, C and D (TP53, JUN, AKT1, CREBBP, EP300 e SRC) have also shown relevant WNL. A comparison between genes identified on skin cancer melanoma and genes of healthy skin was also made, suggesting genes that can be actives, silent, or showing variations on their functions to this type of cancer.

  • Transcriptome-Wide Profiling of the Neonatal Monocyte Response to E
    Transcriptome-wide profiling of the neonatal monocyte response to E. coli and S. epidermidis Emma de Jong, B.Sc. (Hons) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Veterinary & Life Sciences 2015 Declaration I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research, and contains as its main content work that has not previously been submitted for a degree at any other tertiary education institution. .................................... (Emma de Jong) i ii Abstract Preterm infants are extremely vulnerable to life-threatening invasive infections (particularly with Staphylococcus epidermidis and Escherichia coli) however our understanding of their innate immune defences is limited. Furthermore, prenatal exposure to histologic chorioamnionitis (HCA) complicates 40–70% of preterm births and is known to modulate the risk for sepsis, yet the impact of HCA on the development of innate immunity is largely unknown. We hypothesised that inadequate monocyte activation by neonatal pathogens results in impaired innate immune responses thereby increasing preterm infants’ susceptibility to invasive infection, and that prenatal exposure to HCA overrides these impairments. Cell sorting and bacterial stimulation methodologies were developed and optimised specifically for working with human infant cord blood samples. RNA-sequencing was performed on purified cord blood monocytes from very preterm (≤31 weeks gestational age (GA)) and term infants (37–40 weeks GA) following challenge with live S. epidermidis or E. coli to identify gene/pathway differences specific to the preterm infant. Protein levels of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines were measured in paired monocyte culture supernatants. Preterm infants displayed a quantitative monocyte deficiency compared to term infants, manifesting as reduced frequencies of classical monocytes with significantly reduced CD14 expression.

  • Termination of RNA Polymerase II Transcription by the 5’-3’ Exonuclease Xrn2
    TERMINATION OF RNA POLYMERASE II TRANSCRIPTION BY THE 5’-3’ EXONUCLEASE XRN2 by MICHAEL ANDRES CORTAZAR OSORIO B.S., Universidad del Valle – Colombia, 2011 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Molecular Biology Program 2018 This thesis for the Doctor of Philosophy degree by Michael Andrés Cortázar Osorio has been approved for the Molecular Biology Program by Mair Churchill, Chair Richard Davis Jay Hesselberth Thomas Blumenthal James Goodrich David Bentley, Advisor Date: Aug 17, 2018 ii Cortázar Osorio, Michael Andrés (Ph.D., Molecular Biology) Termination of RNA polymerase II transcription by the 5’-3’ exonuclease Xrn2 Thesis directed by Professor David L. Bentley ABSTRACT Termination of transcription occurs when RNA polymerase (pol) II dissociates from the DNA template and releases a newly-made mRNA molecule. Interestingly, an active debate fueled by conflicting reports over the last three decades is still open on which of the two main models of termination of RNA polymerase II transcription does in fact operate at 3’ ends of genes. The torpedo model indicates that the 5’-3’ exonuclease Xrn2 targets the nascent transcript for degradation after cleavage at the polyA site and chases pol II for termination. In contrast, the allosteric model asserts that transcription through the polyA signal induces a conformational change of the elongation complex and converts it into a termination-competent complex. In this thesis, I propose a unified allosteric-torpedo mechanism. Consistent with a polyA site-dependent conformational change of the elongation complex, I found that pol II transitions at the polyA site into a mode of slow transcription elongation that is accompanied by loss of Spt5 phosphorylation in the elongation complex.

This capacity has largely been ascribed to paracrine factors secreted by nerve-resident Schwann cells. Here, we used single-cell transcriptional profiling to identify ligands made by different injured rodent nerve cell types and have combined this with cell-surface mass spectrometry to computationally model potential paracrine interactions with peripheral neurons. These analyses show that peripheral nerves make many ligands predicted to act on peripheral and CNS neurons, in- cluding known and previously uncharacterized ligands. While Schwann cells are an important ligand source within injured nerves, more than half of the predicted ligands are made by nerve-resident mesenchymal cells, including the endoneurial cells most closely associated with peripheral axons. At least three of these mesen- chymal ligands, ANGPT1, CCL11, and VEGFC, promote growth when locally applied on sympathetic axons.

Flister3, Richard Mott5, William Valdar 1*, and Leah C. Solberg Woods 4* Objective: Obesity is a major risk factor for multiple diseases and is in part heritable, yet the majority of caus- ative genetic variants that drive excessive adiposity remain unknown. Here, outbred heterogeneous stock (HS) rats were used in controlled environmental conditions to fine-map novel genetic modifiers of adiposity. Methods: Body weight and visceral fat pad weights were measured in male HS rats that were also geno- typed genome-wide. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) were identified by genome-wide association of imputed single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotypes using a linear mixed effect model that accounts for unequal relatedness between the HS rats. Candidate genes were assessed by protein modeling and mediation analysis of expression for coding and noncoding variants, respectively. Results: HS rats exhibited large variation in adiposity traits, which were highly heritable and correlated with metabolic health. Fine-mapping of fat pad weight and body weight revealed three QTL and prioritized five can- didate genes. Fat pad weight was associated with missense SNPs in Adcy3 and Prlhr and altered expression of Krtcap3 and Slc30a3,whereasGrid2 was identified as a candidate within the body weight locus.
