Microglia, resident macrophages of the CNS, are essential to brain development, homeostasis, and disease. Microglial activation and proliferation are hallmarks of many CNS diseases, including neuropathic pain. However, molecular mechanisms that govern the spinal neuroimmune axis in the setting of neuropathic pain remain incompletely understood. Here, we show that genetic ablation or pharmacological blockade of transient receptor potential vanilloid type 4 (TRPV4) markedly attenuated neuropathic pain-like behaviors in a mouse model of spared nerve injury. Mechanistically, microglia-expressed TRPV4 mediated microglial activation and proliferation and promoted functional and structural plasticity of excitatory spinal neurons through release of lipocalin-2. Our results suggest …

Nitric Oxide-Driven Modifications Of Lipoic Arm Inhibit Α-Ketoacid Dehydrogenases, Gretchen L Seim, Steven V John, Nicholas L Arp, Zixiang Fang, David J Pagliarini, Jing Fan

2020-Current year OA Pubs

Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHC) and oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex (OGDC), which belong to the mitochondrial α-ketoacid dehydrogenase family, play crucial roles in cellular metabolism. These multi-subunit enzyme complexes use lipoic arms covalently attached to their E2 subunits to transfer an acyl group to coenzyme A (CoA). Here, we report a novel mechanism capable of substantially inhibiting PDHC and OGDC: reactive nitrogen species (RNS) can covalently modify the thiols on their lipoic arms, generating a series of adducts that block catalytic activity. S-Nitroso-CoA, a product between RNS and the E2 subunit's natural substrate, CoA, can efficiently deliver these modifications onto the lipoic …

Cmpk2 Is A Host Restriction Factor That Inhibits Infection Of Multiple Coronaviruses In A Cell-Intrinsic Manner, Mingjun Zhu, Jiahuang Lv, Wei Wang, Rongli Guo, Chunyan Zhong, Avan Antia, Qiru Zeng, Jizong Li, Qingtao Liu, Jinzhu Zhou, Xuejiao Zhu, Baochao Fan, Siyuan Ding, Bin Li

Coronaviruses (CoVs) comprise a group of important human and animal pathogens. Despite extensive research in the past 3 years, the host innate immune defense mechanisms against CoVs remain incompletely understood, limiting the development of effective antivirals and non-antibody-based therapeutics. Here, we performed an integrated transcriptomic analysis of porcine jejunal epithelial cells infected with porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) and identified cytidine/uridine monophosphate kinase 2 (CMPK2) as a potential host restriction factor. CMPK2 exhibited modest antiviral activity against PEDV infection in multiple cell types. CMPK2 transcription was regulated by interferon-dependent and interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1)-dependent pathways post-PEDV infection. We demonstrated …

Genomic Patterns Of Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor (Mpnst) Evolution Correlate With Clinical Outcome And Are Detectable In Cell-Free Dna, Isidro Cortes-Ciriano, Dana C Borcherding, Jeffrey J Szymanski, Angela C Hirbe, Et Al.

2020-Current year OA Pubs

UNLABELLED: Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST), an aggressive soft-tissue sarcoma, occurs in people with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and sporadically. Whole-genome and multiregional exome sequencing, transcriptomic, and methylation profiling of 95 tumor samples revealed the order of genomic events in tumor evolution. Following biallelic inactivation of NF1, loss of CDKN2A or TP53 with or without inactivation of polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) leads to extensive somatic copy-number aberrations (SCNA). Distinct pathways of tumor evolution are associated with inactivation of PRC2 genes and H3K27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) status. Tumors with H3K27me3 loss evolve through extensive chromosomal losses followed by whole-genome doubling …

Aberrant Right Gastric Vein Mimicking Hepatic Spread Of Prostate Cancer On Psma-Pet/Ct, Genevieve C Muñoz, Tyler J Fraum

2020-Current year OA Pubs

Hepatic vasculature can exhibit a wide variety of variants, some of which may resemble pathologic findings. In this case, a 53-year-old man presenting for staging of biochemically recurrent prostatic adenocarcinoma was found to have focally increased prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) tracer uptake on positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in hepatic segment IV. This finding was initially concerning for hepatic metastasis of the patient's primary prostate adenocarcinoma. However, the area of radiotracer uptake was not associated with a discrete lesion on CT, and the geographic morphology of the uptake raised the possibility of a vascular etiology. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of …

Apolipoprotein M (ApoM) binds sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and is inversely associated with mortality in human heart failure (HF). Here, we show that anthracyclines such as doxorubicin (Dox) reduce circulating ApoM in mice and humans, that ApoM is inversely associated with mortality in patients with anthracycline-induced heart failure, and ApoM heterozygosity in mice increases Dox-induced mortality. In the setting of Dox stress, our studies suggest ApoM can help sustain myocardial autophagic flux in a post-transcriptional manner, attenuate Dox cardiotoxicity, and prevent lysosomal injury.

Aim18p And Aim46p Are Chalcone Isomerase Domain-Containing Mitochondrial Hemoproteins In Saccharomyces Cerevisiae, Jonathan M Schmitz, John F Wolters, Nathan H Murray, Rachel M Guerra, Craig A Bingman, Chris Todd Hittinger, David J Pagliarini

2020-Current year OA Pubs

Chalcone isomerases (CHIs) have well-established roles in the biosynthesis of plant flavonoid metabolites. Saccharomyces cerevisiae possesses two predicted CHI-like proteins, Aim18p (encoded by YHR198C) and Aim46p (YHR199C), but it lacks other enzymes of the flavonoid pathway, suggesting that Aim18p and Aim46p employ the CHI fold for distinct purposes. Here, we demonstrate using proteinase K protection assays, sodium carbonate extractions, and crystallography that Aim18p and Aim46p reside on the mitochondrial inner membrane and adopt CHI folds, but they lack select active site residues and possess an extra fungal-specific loop. Consistent with these differences, Aim18p and Aim46p lack CHI activity and also …

2020-Current year OA Pubs

The epigenome of stem cells occupies a critical interface between genes and environment, serving to regulate expression through modification by intrinsic and extrinsic factors. We hypothesized that aging and obesity, which represent major risk factors for a variety of diseases, synergistically modify the epigenome of adult adipose stem cells (ASCs). Using integrated RNA- and targeted bisulfite-sequencing in murine ASCs from lean and obese mice at 5- and 12-months of age, we identified global DNA hypomethylation with either aging or obesity, and a synergistic effect of aging combined with obesity. The transcriptome of ASCs in lean mice was relatively stable to …
