Project description:Using the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis as a model for early branching metazoans, we show that CoREST is an animal-specific protein that assembles a conserved histone-modifying complex including Lsd1 and HDAC1/2. We further show that the Nematostella complex is similar in composition to vertebrates.

Project description:Fibronectin (FN)-binding integrins control a variety of cellular responses through Rho GTPases. The FN-binding integrins, αvβ3 and α5β1, are known to induce different effects on cell morphology and motility. Here we report that FN-bound αvβ3 integrin, but not FN-bound α5β1 integrin, triggers the dissociation of the RhoA GEF Lfc (GEF-H1 in humans) from microtubules (MT), leading to the activation of RhoA, formation of stress fibres and maturation of focal adhesions (FAs). Conversely, loss of Lfc expression decreases RhoA activity, stress fibre formation and FA size, suggesting that Lfc is the major GEF downstream of FN-bound αvβ3 that controls RhoA activity. Mechanistically, FN-engaged αvβ3 integrin activates a kinase cascade involving MARK2/3, which in turn leads to phosphorylation of several phospho-sites on Lfc. In particular, S151 was identified as the main site involved in the regulation of Lfc localization and activity. Our findings indicate that activation of Lfc/RhoA is orchestrated in FN-adherent cells in an integrin-specific manner.

Project description:Mesothelioma is an aggressive cancer of the mesothelial layer associated with an extensive fibrotic response. The latter is in large part mediated by cancer-associated fibroblasts which mediate tumour progression and poor prognosis. However, understanding of the crosstalk between cancer cells and fibroblasts in this disease is mostly lacking. Here, using co-cultures of patient-derived mesothelioma cell lines and lung fibroblasts, we demonstrate that fibroblast activation is a self-propagated process producing a fibrotic extracellular matrix (ECM) and triggering drug resistance in mesothelioma cells. Following characterisation of mesothelioma cells/fibroblasts signalling crosstalk, we identify several FDA-approved targeted therapies as far more potent than standard-of-care Cisplatin/Pemetrexed in ECM-embedded co-culture spheroid models. In particular, the SRC family kinase inhibitor, Saracatinib, extends overall survival well beyond standard-of-care in a mesothelioma genetically-engineered mouse model. In short, we lay the foundation for the rational design of novel therapeutic strategies targeting mesothelioma/fibroblast communication for the treatment of mesothelioma patients.

Project description:investigate the proximal proteins on the porositophorous vacuole membranes when toxoplasma gondii ME49 infected mouse bone marrow derived dendritic cells were primed under different conditions. The priming condition using IFN gamma will induce the formation of GBP+ puncta on a portion of PVM. The constituents of the GBP+ puncta are also investigated.

Project description:To test the ability of the Automated Spatially Targeted Optical Micro Proteomics (AutoSTOMP) protocol for clinical research. We collected from a patient diagnosed with active EoE (≥15 eosinophils/hpf), according to consensus guidelines, using standard endoscopy procedures, then we try to selectively obtain the proteome from the discrete lgG4+ lesions of the biopsy sections by AutoSTOMP, and try to link the lesion structure with its specially skewed constituents comparing to the rest of the tissue.

Project description:Enhanced ascorbate peroxidase 2 (APEX2) can be used as a genetic tag that produces short-lived yet highly reactive biotin species, allowing the modification of proteins that interact with or are in very close proximity to the tagged protein, ideally within a confined compartment. Biotinylated proteins can be isolated using immobilized streptavidin and analyzed by mass spectrometry. Here we used rapamycin-dependent targeting of APEX2 to tail-anchored proteins of the endoplasmic reticulum and of the inner nuclear membrane (INM). In combination with stable isotope labeling with amino acids in cell culture (SILAC), our novel approach (rapamycin- and APEX-dependent identification of proteins by SILAC; RAPID-SILAC or RAPIDS) allowed the identification of proteins that are in close proximity to the prototypic INM-protein emerin and the vesicle-trafficking protein VAPB. In addition to well-known interaction partners, several new potential binding partners were identified. In RAPIDS, the comparison of plus/minus-rapamycin conditions allows a clear distinction between specific and non-specific hits.

Project description:To test the ability of the Automated Spatially Targeted Optical Micro Proteomics (AutoSTOMP) protocol to selectively biotinylate structures of interest within tissue sections we first examined a rat myocardial infarction model. In this model, trauma caused by ligation and infiltrating immune cells causes fibroblast activation and deposition of scar tissue that ultimately impairs cardiac function. Macrophages are thought to play a role in inflammatory regulation and damaged cell turnover in the tissue. We decide to grab the proteome of the macrophage rich regions.

Project description:Ineffective hematopoiesis is a hallmark of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Hematopoietic alterations in MDS patients strictly correlate with microenvironment dysfunctions, eventually affecting also the mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) compartment. Stromal cells are indeed epigenetically reprogrammed to cooperate with leukemic cells and propagate the disease as "tumor unit"; therefore, changes on MSCs epigenetic profile might contribute to the hematopoietic perturbations typical of MDS. Here, we unveil that the histone variant macroH2A1 (mH2A1) regulates the crosstalk between epigenetics and inflammation in MDS-MSCs, potentially affecting their hematopoietic support ability. We show that the mH2A1 splicing isoform mH2A1.1 accumulates in MDS-MSCs, correlating with the expression of the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), an important pro-tumor activator of MSC phenotype associated to a pro-inflammatory behavior. MH2A1.1-TLR4 axis was further investigated in HS-5 stromal cells after ectopic mH2A1.1 overexpression (mH2A1.1-OE). Proteomic data confirmed the activation of a pro-inflammatory signature associated to TLR4 and nuclear factor kappa B (NFkB) activation. Moreover, mH2A1.1-OE proteomic profile identified several upregulated proteins associated to DNA and histones hypermethylation, including S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase, a strong inhibitor of DNA methyltransferase and of the methyl donor S-adenosyl-methionine (SAM). HPLC analysis confirmed higher SAM/SAH ratio along with a metabolic reprogramming. Interestingly, an increased LDHA nuclear localization was detected both in mH2A1.1-OE cells and MDS-MSCs, probably depending on MSC inflammatory phenotype. Finally, coculturing healthy mH2A1-OE MSCs with CD34+ cells, we found a significant reduction in the number of CD34+ cells, which was reflected in a decreased number of colony forming units (CFU -Cs). These results suggest a key role of mH2A1.1 in driving the crosstalk between epigenetic signaling, inflammation and cell metabolism networks in MDS-MSCs.
