Hepatobiliary cancer is the third leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Appropriate markers for early diagnosis, monitoring of disease progression, and prediction of postsurgical outcome are still lacking. As the majority of circulating N-glycoproteins are originated from the hepatobiliary system, we sought to explore new markers by assessing the dynamics of N-glycoproteome in plasma samples from patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), or combined HCC and CCA ( ...[more]

Project description:Two popular models for how mutant Huntingtin exon 1 (Httex1) aggregation into inclusions relates to pathogenesis involve seemingly contradictory mechanisms. In one model, inclusions are adaptive by sequestering the proteotoxicity of soluble Httex1. In the other, inclusions compromise cellular activity from proteome co-aggregation. Via a biosensor of Httex1 conformation in mammalian cell models, we discovered a mechanism that explains this contradiction. Newly-formed inclusions are comprised of disordered Httex1 and ribonucleoproteins. As inclusions matured, Httex1 reconfigured into amyloid, and other glutamine-rich and prion-domain containing proteins were recruited. Soluble Httex1 caused a hyperpolarized mitochondrial membrane potential, increased reactive oxygen species and promoted apoptosis. Inclusion formation triggered a collapsed mitochondrial potential, cellular quiescence, and deactivated apoptosis. We propose a revised model where both soluble Httex1 and inclusions are toxic, yet inclusions impair programmed cell death arising from stalled cellular functioning. Hence cells live longer in a metabolically quiescent state and ultimately die by necrosis.

Project description:The degenerative process in Parkinson’s disease (PD) causes a progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons (DaNs) in the nigrostriatal system. Resolving the differences in neuronal susceptibility warrants an amenable PD model that, in comparison to post-mortem human specimens, controls for environmental and genetic differences in PD pathogenesis. At present study, we generated a primate model of PD by carotid artery injection of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine MPTP and sampled substantia nigra and putamen of macaque for single cell sequencing analysis.

Project description:The goal of this experiment was to examine the biological properties of reassortant viruses between the 1918 virus and a contemporary human H1N1 virus to determine the role of hemagglutinin (HA) and the viral RNA polymerase complex of 1918 virus toward pathogenesis and abberant host responses in mice. Six- to eight-week-old female BALB/c mice were anesthetized and inoculated with 50 μl of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS; Mock) or with 10^6 pfu of virus in a 50 μl volume. There are a total of six biological conditions: wild-type 1918 virus (A/Brevig Mission/1/1918; 1918), wild-type K173 virus (A/Kawasaki/173/2001; K173), three reassortant viruses between 1918 and K173 viruses [1918HA/K173, 1918PB1/K173, and 1918(3P+NP)/K173], and mock-infected control animals. Nine animals per virus group were inoculated, and whole lungs were collected at 1, 3 and 5 days post-inoculation from three animals per virus group per time point. Two of three mice inoculated with 1918 virus and 1918HA/K173 virus died by day 5 post-inoculation. Six animals were inoculated with PBS. Whole lungs from two mock-infected animals per time point were collected and served as the uninfected reference. All samples were processed for lung gene expression analysis using oligonucleotide microarrays. Technical replicates were performed for 9 samples.

Project description:The cardiovascular restricted transcription factor CHF1/Hey2 has been previously shown to regulate the smooth muscle response to growth factors. To determine how CHF1/Hey2 affects the smooth muscle response to growth factors, we performed a genomic screen for transcripts that are differentially expressed in wild type and knockout smooth muscle cells after stimulation with platelet derived growth factor. We screened 45101 probes representing more than 39,000 transcripts derived from at least 34,000 genes, at eight different time points. We analyzed the expression data utilizing an algorithm based on Bayesian statistics to derive the best polynomial clustering model to fit the expression data. We found that in a total of 9827 transcripts the normalized ratio of knockout to wild type expression diverged more than 3 fold from baseline in at least one time point, and these transcripts separated into 17 distinct clusters. Further analysis of each cluster revealed distinct alterations in gene expression patterns for immediate early genes, transcription factors, matrix metalloproteinases, signaling molecules and other molecules important in vascular biology. Experiment Overall Design: WT and Hey2 knockout mouse aortic smooth muscle cells were treated in parallel with PDGF and harvested at successive time points for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to identify differentially expressed transcripts through Bayesian statistical methods that would explain the differential response to PDGF observed in vitro.

Project description:The Aurora family of kinases orchestrates chromosome segregation and cytokinesis during cell division, with precise spatiotemporal regulation of its catalytic activities by distinct protein scaffolds. Plasmodium spp., the causative agents of malaria, are unicellular eukaryotes with three unique and highly divergent aurora-related kinases (ARK1-3) that are essential for asexual cellular proliferation, but lack most canonical scaffolds/activators. Here we investigate the role of ARK2 during sexual proliferation of the rodent malaria Plasmodium berghei, using a combination of super-resolution microscopy, mass spectrometry, and live-cell fluorescence imaging. We find that ARK2 is primarily located at spindle apparatus microtubules in the vicinity of kinetochores during both mitosis and meiosis. Interactomic and co-localisation studies reveal several putative ARK2-associated interactors including the microtubule plus end-binding protein EB1, together with MISFIT and Myosin-K, but no conserved eukaryotic scaffold proteins. Gene function studies indicate that ARK2 and EB1 are complementary in driving endomitotic division and thereby parasite transmission through the mosquito. This discovery underlines the flexibility of molecular networks to rewire and drive unconventional mechanisms of chromosome segregation in the malaria parasite.

Project description:We have combined large-scale mRNA expression and gene mapping methods to identify genes and loci that control hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) functioning. mRNA expression levels were measured in purified HSC isolated from a panel of densely genotyped recombinant inbred mouse strains. Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with variation in expression of thousands of transcripts were mapped. Comparison of the physical transcript position with the location of the controlling QTL identified polymorphic cis-acting stem cell genes. In addition, multiple trans-acting control loci were highlighted that modify expression of large numbers of genes. These groups of co-regulated transcripts identify pathways that specify variation in stem cells. We illustrate this concept with the identification of strong candidate genes involved with HSC turnover. We compared expression QTLs in HSC and brain from the same animals, and document both shared and tissue-specific QTLs. Our data are accessible through WebQTL, a web-based interface that allows custom genetic linkage analysis and identification of co-regulated transcripts.

Project description:Plasma collected from mice with FIA were pooled, and 0.3 ml was injected intravenously into 6-week-old naïve SJL mice on days 0 and 2. Synovial antigen array profiling of plasma from the arthritic recipient mice demonstrated autoreactive B-cell responses against peptides representing native fibrinogen and citrullinated fibrinogen, and further epitope spreading resulting in additional targeting of fibronectin, collagen type V, cartilage gp39, and clusterin. Custom-spotted protein slides were probed with plasma samples from individual mice. Four slides were probed with plasma derived from naïve mice and four slides were probed with plasma derived from mice injected with FIA plasma.

Project description:Introduction: Autoreactivity to histones is a pervasive feature of several human autoimmune disorders including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Specific post-translational modifications (PTMs) of histones within neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) may potentially drive the process by which tolerance to these chromatin-associated proteins is broken. We hypothesized that NETs and their unique histone PTMs might be capable of inducing autoantibodies that target histones. Methods: We developed a novel and efficient method for the in vitro production, visualization, and broad profiling of histone-PTMs of human and murine NETs. We also immunized Balb/c mice with murine NETs and profiled their sera on autoantigen and histone peptide microarrays for evidence of autoantibody production to their immunogen. Results: We confirmed specificity toward acetyl-modified histone H2B as well as to other histone PTMs in sera from patients with SLE known to have autoreactivity against histones. We observed enrichment for distinctive histone marks of transcriptionally silent DNA during NETosis triggered by diverse stimuli. However, NETs derived from human and murine sources did not harbor many of the PTMs toward which autoreactivity was observed in patients with SLE or in MRL/lpr mice. Further, while murine NETs were weak autoantigens in vivo, there was only partial overlap in the IgG and IgM autoantibody profiles induced by vaccination of mice with NETs and those seen in patients with SLE. Conclusions: Isolated in vivo exposure to NETs is insufficient to break tolerance and may involve additional factors that have yet to be identified. Serum samples from 20 systemic lupus erythematosis patients were run on the Human Epigenome Microarray Platform V1.0 (HEMP; a single-color platform), in order to profile their autoantibodies against a library of post-translationally modified histone peptides. These 20 samples were randomly selected from a larger cohort previously profiled (data not shown) on the Utz Lab Whole Protein Autoantigen Array V2.0 (a single-color platform), where 14 were histone-reactive and 6 were histone-nonreactive. Control sera from 9 healthy adults and a positive control comprising a mixture of autoimmune sera with defined reactivities, were also run on HEMP V1.0. Together, these samples comprise the data appearing in Figures 1 and S1 (IgG and IgM isotype reactivity profiles, respectively), identifying IgG reactivity to 9 peptides that significantly distinguish histone-reactive from -nonreactive sera among 96 peptides profiled. For data appearing in Figure 5, serum samples from a total of 6 Balb/c mice, consisting of two treatment groups, NETs (Neutrophil Extracellular Traps) and NETs + CRAMP (cathelicidin-related antimicrobial peptide) were collected monthly over a 3-month period, along with a zero time point. These samples were compared with a positive control consisting of serum collected from a MLR/lpr mice exhibiting lupus-like symptoms, and a negative control with no serum. The 0, 1 and 2 month time points were profiled on the Utz Lab Whole Protein Autoantigen Array V2.0 and are shown in Figure 5A-B, while the 1 and 3 month time points were profiled on HEMP V1.0 arrays and shown in Figure 5E. All samples were run once with no replicates.

Project description:This study used virological, histological, and global gene expression from an experimental murine model of influenza infection to study the contribution of a specific mutation in the PB1-F2 protein (PB1-F2 N66S) of influenza A to viral pathogenesis. 6-8 week old, wild-type, female, C57Bl/6 mice were inoculated individually with 30 μl (10^4 PFU) of virus (recombinant influenza A/WSN/33 carrying the PB1 gene segment from A/Hong Kong/156/97 (H5N1) or a PB1 mutant recombinant virus resulting in an amino acid change at position 66 in the PB1-F2 protein [N66S]) in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing penicillin-streptomycin and bovine serum albumin (PBS-BA-PS). A total of 10^4 PFU of virus was given in all inoculations. Control mice were given PBS-BA-PS. Lung samples were taken for microarray analysis at 12h, 1d, 3d, and 5d post-infection (n=3 animals per group at each time point for virus infected animals; n=2 animals per time point for mock-infected animals).
