Project description:cdipt is an essential gene in the synthesis of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) in the zebrafish, Danio rerio. The zebrafish mutant cdipt^hi559Tg (ZL782) carries a retroviral insertion which inactivates cdipt. Homozygous mutants exhibit hepatocellular endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) pathologies at 5 days post fertilization (dpf). This study reveals a novel link between PtdIns, ER stress, and steatosis. We compared whole animal gene expression profiles of hi559 mutant larvae with phenotypically wild type larvae from a heterozygote incross in triplicate.

Project description:In eukaryotic cells, the spatial regulation of protein expression is frequently conferred through the coupling of mRNA localization and the local control of translation. mRNA localization to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a prominent example of such regulation and serves a ubiquitous role in segregating the synthesis of secretory and integral membrane proteins to the ER. Recent genomic and biochemical studies have now expanded this view to suggest a role for the ER in global protein synthesis. We have utilized cell fractionation and ribosome profiling to obtain a genomic survey of the subcellular organization of mRNA translation and report that ribosomal loading of mRNAs, a proxy for mRNA translation, is biased to the ER. Notably, ER-associated mRNAs encoding both cytosolic and topogenic signal-encoding proteins display similar ribosome loading densities, suggesting that ER-associated ribosomes serve a global role in mRNA translation. We propose that the partitioning of mRNAs and their translation between the cytosol and ER compartments may represent a novel mechanism for the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. HEK293 cells were fractionated between the cytosol and endoplasmic reticulum. Within each fraction, ribosome footprints were generated and sequenced. In parallel, total mRNA was sequenced.

Project description:We are currently studying how these information-carrying oligosaccharides are involved in cellular stress responses, particularly in human genetic diseases called Congenital Disorders Of Glycosylation in which oligosaccharide assembly is defective. We are interested in endoplasmic stress responses/unfolded protein responses. ER glycans and ER lectins are intimately involved in the folding of ER proteins. Therefore, ER lectins and ER glycosyltransferases may be controlled by these stress responses, to produce and/or recognize key glycans in the stress response. Our model system is the human dermal fibroblast. We have successfully calibrated the ER stress responses in these cells by determining the magnitudes of various stress effects (such as chaperone transcription) with different forms of ER stress. We are also completing a study in which activation the signaling molecules Ire1 and ATF6 are also calibrated. We prepared multiple identical aliquots of RNA from cells stressed under several of these calibrated conditions.

The UPR response in these cells has been calibrated using various readouts in response to different stresses: 1) 40 nM L-azetidine-2-carboxylate (AZC) 1 hour, 2) 0.2 mg/ml castanospermine, 24 hours, 3) 2 mM Dithiothreitol (DTT), 20 minutes, 4) 100nm Thapsigargin (TG), 30 minutes, 5) 5 ug/ml tunicamycin, 5 hours, 6) untreated control cells

Project description:Effects of calcitriol on expressions of ER stress related genes were evaluated with microarray. Calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D, is known to induce apoptosis in cancer cells and increase intracellular calcium. Increase in cytopalsmic calcicium levels may indicate a decrease in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium levels since ER is the main storage unit for calcium. Decrease in ER calcium levels are known to induce ER stress which can lead to apoptosis. However the effects of calcitriol on ER stress have not been reported before. Here we hypotesized that the cellular effects of calcitriol can be explained by induction of ER stress. We have tested this hypothesis by assessing calcitriol induced transcriptomic alterations with a focus on ER stress related genes.

Project description:Condition specific zebrafish metabolic models generated using the COBRA MetaboTools framework. The Wang et al., (2021) zebrafish genome-scale metabolic model (GEM) was constrained with experimental data from 5 days post fertilized (dpf) zebrafish to generate a 'base-model'.
In turn this 5 dpf zebrafish base-model was constrained with experimental (transcriptomics and metabolomics) data from 5 dpf zebrafish exposed to the environmental pollutant perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), at three levels - Low (0.06 uM), Medium (0.6 uM), and High (2 uM) PFOS.
The MetaboTools framework was used to construct three condition-sepcific models: Low, Medium, and High PFOS.
Key simulation predictions of effects on the carnitine shuttle and lipid metabolism were confirmed in wild-caught fish and dolphins (stranded animals) sampled from the northern Gulf of Mexico - published in Nolen et al., (2024) https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cbpc.2023.109817

Project description:Alterations in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis have been implicated in the pathophysiology of obesity and type-2 diabetes (T2D). Acute ER stress induction in the hypothalamus produces glucose metabolism perturbations. However, the neurobiological basis linking hypothalamic ER stress with abnormal glucose metabolism remains unknown. Here we report that genetic and induced models of hypothalamic ER stress are associated with alterations in systemic glucose homeostasis due to increased gluconeogenesis (GNG) independent of body weight changes. Defective alpha melanocyte-stimulating hormone (a-MSH) production underlies this metabolic phenotype, as pharmacological strategies aimed at rescuing hypothalamic a-MSH content reversed this phenotype at metabolic and molecular level. Collectively, our results posit defective a-MSH processing as a fundamental mediator of enhanced GNG in the context of hypothalamic ER stress, and establish a-MSH deficiency in proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons as a potential contributor to the pathophysiology of T2D. Total RNA was extracted from whole-liver of 6-week old control (3 biological replicates) and POMCMfn2KO mice (5 biological replicates)

Project description:Acromegaly is a growth hormone (GH) excess pathological condition in humans and is associated with somatic disfigurement and a wide variety of systemic manifestations such as arthritis, neuropathies, carpal tunnel syndrome, reproductive disorders, metabolic disorders, and gastrointestinal complications. Studying the effect of growth hormone (GH) excess at the cellular level could help in understanding the underlying causes of acromegaly complications. In our previous publications, we have shown that excess GH increases DNA damage and impairs DNA repair pathways in somatic cells. In addition, we revealed that excessive GH reduces the number of stem cells and causes premature aging. Exaggerated growth is one of the main features of acromegaly and therefore, in this research, we have focused on protein production and biogenesis in acromegaly and whether excess GH is associated with unfolded protein response (UPR) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Acromegaly-associated abnormal growth can be caused by hypertrophy or hyperplasia. Using pathway enrichment analysis of RNA seq data from our Zebrafish Acromegaly Model and Flow Cytometry Analysis, here we show a progressive increase in hepatocyte cell size and enrichment of hypertrophy pathways in the muscle and liver. That was associated with a progressive enrichment of protein production pathways and ribosome biogenesis. Moreover, using GSEA (Gene Set Enrichment Analysis) of acromegaly RNA seq data, here we show that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is an accompanying feature of acromegaly disease. Our model exhibited endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in various organs, especially in the brain.
