Project description:MafA and MafB transcription factors have been shown to be key regulators of insulin and glucagon transcription. MafB is essential for alpha and beta cell differentiation, as MafB deficient mice produced fewer insulin+ and glucagon+ cells during development, with MafA expressed in remaining insulin+ cells. In contrast, beta cell development was reported to be normal in a total MafA knock out, although the animals developed beta cell dysfunction and diabetes as adults. However, we have found that MafB expression is elevated during development and retained in adult insulin+ cells after conditional removal of MafA in the pancreas. These studies will evaluate the broader significance of these insulin and glucagon regulators in alpha and beta cell development and function. Our efforts will focus on determining if the concerted actions of MafA and MafB factors are significant to beta cell formation, and we specifically plan to: Determine how alpha and beta cell differentiation is affected in MafA/MafB compound mutant mice during pancreas development. cDNA microarray studies (pancchip 6.0) with wild type, MafAKO, MafB-/-, and MafAKOMafB-/- mutant E18.5 pancreata will be performed to comprehensively identify genes controlled by MafA and MafB in developing alpha and beta cells.

Project description:Cell transformation by the Src tyrosine kinase is characterized by extensive changes in gene expression. To describe these changes, investigators have relied extensively on the study of immortalized rodent cell lines or heterogeneous tumor samples that limit the identification of differentially expressed genes or may not represent the full spectrum of biological processes regulated during transformation. In this study, we took advantage of transformation-deficient and temperature sensitive mutants of the Rous sarcoma virus to characterize the patterns of gene expression in two types of primary cells, namely chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) and chicken neuro-retinal (CNR) cells. Keywords: viral transformation of primary cells, transformation, transformation deficient mutant, temperature sensitive mutant, v-Src Chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) were infected with the wild-type strain Schmidt-Ruppin A RSV or non-transforming strain NY315 RSV or the non-transforming control virus RCASBP(A) to assess genes involved in v-Src-dependent transformation of CEF. Chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) were infected with the temperature sensitve strain NY72-4 RSV and cultured either at non-permissive temperature (41.5M-KM-^ZC) or permissive temperature (37M-KM-^ZC) to assess genes involved in v-Src-dependent transformation of CEF. Chicken neuroretina cells (CNR) were infected with the temperature sensitve strain NY72-4 RSV and cultured either at non-permissive temperature (41.5M-KM-^ZC) or permissive temperature (37M-KM-^ZC) to assess genes involved in v-Src-dependent transformation of CNR and compared to CEF.

Project description:Translational regulation plays a critical role in cell growth and proliferation, and its dysregulation results in cancer. Aberrant expression of the mRNA 5’cap-binding protein, eIF4E, has been implicated in cancer development and progression. eIF4E activity is promoted by phosphorylation. Here we show that “knock-in” mice in which eIF4E cannot be phosphorylated are resistant to tumorigenesis in a prostate cancer model. We identify multiple candidate genes involved in the resistance to oncogenic transformation. Importantly, phosphorylation of eIF4E is increased in hormone-refractory prostate cancer, the deadliest stage of the disease. Our results highlight eIF4E phosphorylation as a critical event in tumorigenesis.

Project description:Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with compromised identity of insulin-producing pancreatic islet beta (β) cells, characterized by inappropriate production of other islet cell-enriched hormones. Here we examined how hormone misexpression was influenced by the MAFA and MAFB transcription factors, closely related proteins that maintain islet cell function. Mice specifically lacking MafA in β cells demonstrated broad, population-wide changes in hormone gene expression with an overall gene signature closely resembling islet gastrin (Gast)-positive cells generated under conditions of chronic hyperglycemia and obesity. A human b cell line deficient in MAFB, but not one lacking MAFA, also produced a gastrin (GAST)-positive gene expression pattern. In addition, GAST was detected in human T2D β cells with low levels of MAFB. Moreover, evidence is provided that human MAFB can directly repress GAST gene transcription. These results support a novel, species-specific role for MafA and MAFB in maintaining adult mouse and human β cell identity, respectively, by repressing expression of Gast/GAST and other non-b cell hormones.
