The liver serves as a major energetic reservoir for other tissues and its metabolic function is controlled by humoral and neural factors. The vagus nerve innervating the gastrointestinal tract plays an important role in regulating peripheral metabolism and energy expenditure. Although the liver receives vagus nerve fibers, the impact of this circuitry in the regulation of hepatic metabolism is still poorly understood. Herein, we used a combination of quantitative proteomics and in vivo imaging t ...[more]

Project description:Norepinephrine (NE) and acetylcholine (ACh) are important neurotransmitters of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves, which play antagonistic roles in regulating different islet hormones secretion. Phosphorylation is reported as a critical post-translational modification participates in neural regulation on various physiological activities in islet. However, the molecular mechanisms of these two transmitters in islet are unknown and whether the neuronal regulation is abnormal in diabetes mellitus also unclear. Quantitative phosphoproteome analysis were performed on murine islet after short time stimulation with neurotransmitters NE and ACh to reveal the key moleculars and phosphorylated proteins in islet which participate in the innervation of nerve signaling.

Project description:Follistatin is a folliculogenesis regulating protein that has been found in relatively high concentration in the female ovarian tissues. Follistatin acts as an antagonist to the function of Activin, which is often found elevated in ovarian carcinogenesis and thus presents a possibility for therapeutic intervention in controlling ovarian cancer. Most of the ovarian cancer occurs in its ovarian surface epithelium (OSE) cells. Although breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA1) is a known tumor suppressor for breast cancer but its role in ovarian cancer is beginning to unfold. We have shown that in ovarian carcinoma cells (SKOV3), stable overexpression of BRCA1 stimulates Follistatin secretion and simultaneously downregulates Activin expression. Moreover, knock down of BRCA1 in immortalized OSE (IOSE) cells from human ovarian tissue demonstrates downregulation of Follistatin secretion with simultaneous up regulation of Activin expression. IOSE cells generated from an ovarian cancer patient with BRCA1 mutation failed to secrete Follistatin in the medium. Our results indicate a novel function for BRCA1 in the form of regulation of the expression of Follistatin in the ovarian cells. 3 treatments vs 3 controls

Project description:This experiment was carried out to see if there were any miRNA expression differences in pulmonary endothelial cells between patients with and without COPD. COPD is an inflammatory condition and although much work has previously been performed to investigate the inflammatory cells in COPD there has not been as much research looking at the endothelium through which inflammatory cells must pass through to reach the lung tissue. In this experiment pulmonary endothelial cells were extracted from whole lung tissue removed at the time of cardiothoracic surgery. This was performed for patients with and without COPD. RNA was extracted using the Qiagen microRNeasy kits prior to transferring to the University of Birmingham Biosciences department who performed RNA labelling and ran the microarrays. Once the microarrays were performed quality was checked using ArrayQualityMetrics and the COPD group was compared to the non-COPD group using SAM. The experiment was then repeated using another patient group. MiRNAs of interest were validated with qPCR initially before moving on to functional work.

Project description:Fabry disease (FD) is a hereditary lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in GLA gene resulting in reduction or lack of α-galactosidase A activity. In humans, enzymatic deficiency leads to accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and other glycosphingolipids in lysosomes. Current therapies focus on reversing Gb3 accumulation but fail to restore altered cellular signaling in the long run. Zebrafish (ZF) lacks Alpha 1,4-Galactosyltransferase (A4GALT) gene and cannot synthesize Gb3 or lysoGb3. We used previously generated GLA-mutant ZF model to investigate Gb3-accumulation-independent alterations by untargeted proteomics analysis of renal tissues. We observed lysosomal and mitochondrial-related pathways disfunction, higher oxidative stress, as indicated by GSH/GSSH and MDA levels, and higher antioxidant activity in mutant ZF. Moreover, mitochondrial morphological alterations also affecting cristae structure were evident. By immunohistochemistry, we also detected decreased lysosomal Tetraspanin (CD63), Superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2), and Cadherin 1 (CDH1) protein expression. Thus, this ZF model Gb3-independently mirrors GLA mutation-related changes, and unravels novel FD pathogenic mechanisms, thereby representing a powerful tool for innovative drug screening, and the identification of markers of potential clinical relevance.

Project description:In this study the transcriptome of Haloferax volcanii DS70 (Wendoloski D, Ferrer C, Dyall-Smith ML. Microbiology. 2001, 147: 959-64), grown under of a variety of conditions, was mapped using a custom genome-wide tiled array consisting of 25 nt probes spaced in 35 nt windows. H. volcanii is a facultative aerobe capable of growth on simple carbon and nitrogen sources, it is amenable to genetic manipulations and has become a widely used model organism for studies on haloarchaeal physiology and global gene regulation. Of particular interest is the identification of genes encoding enzymes needed for growth on simple carbon and nitrogen sources and how these cells respond to limitations in these key nutrients. To address these questions we have compared the RNA populations of cells undergoing balanced growth in completely defined minimal medium (CDM) with succinate-glycerol, pyruvate or lactate as sole carbon sources with RNA from cells grown in complex rich medium (CX) containing yeast extract and tryptone. Data from these studies have identified a core group of genes expressing during balanced growth in either condition as well as specific genes associated with the biosynthesis of amino acids, nucleotides and other key building blocks. The response to nutrient limitation was also investigated. RNA populations from cells entering stationary phase from growth in CDM and CX media were compared to those undergoing balanced growth, and these RNAs were also compared with RNA populations of cells subjected to nitrogen or carbon starvation. Growth in the presence of histidine as the sole source of nitrogen in CDM medium also presented a model for growth with a “poor” nitrogen source. The results of these studies identified specific subpopulations of genes associated with nitrogen limitation and general nutrient limitation associated with the transition to stationary phase. Many of the responsive protein encoding genes were assigned general functions based on their similarity to known proteins; however, in each comparison, approximately half of the affected genes encode proteins classified as unknown or hypothetical proteins. The haloarchaea are also distinct among the Archaea in having multiple genes encoding the general transcription factor proteins TATA binding protein (TBP) and transcription factor IIB (TFB). We observed differential expression of these genes, providing further support for the proposal that alternative TBP-TFB pairings are associated with programmed changes in gene expression in the haloarchaea. RNA was prepared from H. volcanii DS70 cells grown under a variety of conditions. These include: balanced growth in completely defined medium with succinate and glycerol, pyruvate, or lactate as sole carbon source; balanced growth in complex medium with yeast extract and tryptone; starvation for nitrogen or carbon by re-suspending cells, undergoing balanced growth, in media lacking these agents; balanced growth in the presence of low (10% w/v NaCl) and high (20 % or 25% w/v NaCl) salt, and cells entering stationary from growth in CDM or CX media. Four independent cultures were prepared for each growth variable and RNA was isolated from each culture. RNA samples were identified as acceptable for use in array analysis if clear 23S rRNA, 16S rRNA and tRNA-sized bands were present in agarose gel and capillary electrophoresis analysis of the samples. Three RNA samples were chosen for each growth variable and each was used as the source material for a separate chip experiment; these constituted three biological replicates for the growth variable. Data from 48 chip hybridizations, representing 16 growth conditions, were combined for the quantile scaling (Auer H, Newsom DL, Nowak NJ, McHugh KM, Singh S, Yu CY, Yang Y, Wenger GD, Gastier-Foster JM, Kornacker K. BMC Genomics. 2007, 8:111-124) presented in the data analyses. Two additional experiments are included where the RNAs of three independent biological samples were pooled into a single RNA population and used as the source material for an array experiment. These included RNA samples enriched for species less than 500 nt that were isolated from cells undergoing balanced growing, and entry into stationary phase, in CDM or CX media. A second pooled series were obtained from the H. volcanii DS70 mutant strains ASD40 (∆pyrF) and ASD41 (∆pyrF∆hutR) grown in CDM with ammonium ion or histidine as the sole source of nitrogen. Pooled samples are presented as quantile normalized values (Bolstad, B.M., Irizarry, R.A., Astrand, M. and Speed, T.P. Bioinformatics. 2003, 19: 185-193). Total genomic DNA from H. volcanii DS70 was also used as probe, in two independent array experiments, to measure the inherent hybridization to the probes. These data are presented as quantile scaled values (Auer et. al., 2007).

Project description:The formation of condensates in membraneless organelles is thought to be driven by protein phase separation. Arginine methylation and serine/threonine phosphorylation are important in the phase separation process, however these post-translational modifications are often present in intrinsically disordered regions that are difficult to analyse with standard proteomic techniques. Here we use a multi-protease and multi-MS/MS fragmentation approach, coupled with heavy methyl SILAC and phospho- or methyl-peptide enrichment, for the analysis of arginine methylation and serine/threonine phosphorylation, and to understand their co-occurrence in condensate-associated proteins. For Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we report a 50% increase in the known arginine methylproteome, involving 15 proteins that are almost all condensate-associated. Importantly, some of these proteins have arginine methylation on all predicted sites – providing evidence that this modification can be pervasive. We explored whether arginine methylated condensate-associated proteins are also phosphorylated, and found 12 such proteins to carry phosphoserine or phosphothreonine. In Npl3, Ded1 and Ssbp1, single peptides were found to carry both modifications, indicating a co-occurrence in close proximity and on the same protein molecule. We show that these co-modifications occur in regions of disorder and that arginine methylation is typically on basic regions of disorder. For phosphorylation, its association with charged regions of condensate-associated proteins was less consistent, although some regions with multisite phosphorylation sites were strongly acidic. We conclude that arginine-methylated proteins associated with condensates are typically co-modified with protein phosphorylation.

Project description:The sympathetic nervous system innervates peripheral organs to regulate their function and maintain homeostasis, whereas target cells also produce neurotrophic factors to promote sympathetic innervation1,2. The molecular basis of this bi-directional communication is unknown. Here we use thermogenic adipose tissue from mice as a model system to show that T cells, specifically T cells, have a crucial role in promoting sympathetic innervation, at least in part by driving the expression of TGF1 in parenchymal cells via the IL-17 receptor complex (IL-17RC). Ablation of IL-17RC specifically in adipose tissue reduces expression of TGF1 in adipocytes, impairs local sympathetic innervation and causes obesity and other metabolic phenotypes that are consistent with defective thermogenesis; innervation can be fully rescued by restoring TGF1 expression. Ablating cells and the IL-17RC signalling pathway also impairs sympathetic innervation in salivary glands and the lungs. These findings demonstrate coordination between T cells and parenchymal cells to regulate sympathetic innervation.

Project description:This project analyzes peripheral miRNA blood profiles of patients with lung diseases. Since miRNAs are known to be valuable diagnostic markers we asked whether respective patterns of lung cancer patients and COPD patients can be detected in peripheral blood samples rather than in biopsies. The project aimed at an impoved understanding of complex profiles rather than single markers. Thus, a high-throughput technique was necessary, profiling all known miRNAs integratively. n = 19 normal controls, n = 28 lung cancer patients and n = 24 COPD samples have been screened for the complete miRNA repertoire. Please note that each miRNA has been measured in seven replicates and the median of the replica has been computed.
