Aenmd: Annotating Escape From Nonsense-Mediated Decay For Transcripts With Protein-Truncating Variants, Jonathan Klonowski, Qianqian Liang, Zeynep Coban-Akdemir, Cecilia Lo, Dennis Kostka

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

DNA changes that cause premature termination codons (PTCs) represent a large fraction of clinically relevant pathogenic genomic variation. Typically, PTCs induce transcript degradation by nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) and render such changes loss-of-function alleles. However, certain PTC-containing transcripts escape NMD and can exert dominant-negative or gain-of-function (DN/GOF) effects. Therefore, systematic identification of human PTC-causing variants and their susceptibility to NMD contributes to the investigation of the role of DN/GOF alleles in human disease. Here we present aenmd, a software for annotating PTC-containing transcript-variant pairs for predicted escape from NMD. aenmd is user-friendly and self-contained. It offers functionality not currently available …

Taz2 Truncation Confers Overactivation Of P300 And Cellular Vulnerability To Hdac Inhibition, Longxia Xu, Hongwen Xuan, Wei He, Liang Zhang, Mengying Huang, Kuai Li, Hong Wen, Han Xu, Xiaobing Shi

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

The histone acetyltransferase p300/CBP is composed of several conserved domains, among which, the TAZ2 domain is known as a protein-protein interaction domain that binds to E1A and various transcription factors. Here we show that TAZ2 has a HAT autoinhibitory function. Truncating p300/CBP at TAZ2 leads to hyperactive HAT and elevated histone H3K27 and H3K18 acetylation in cells. Mechanistically, TAZ2 cooperates with other HAT neighboring domains to maintain the HAT active site in a 'closed' state. Truncating TAZ2 or binding of transcription factors to TAZ2 induces a conformational change that 'opens' the active site for substrate acetylation. Importantly, genetic mutations that …

Going Circular: History, Present, And Future Of Circrnas In Cancer, Giuseppina Pisignano, David C Michael, Tanvi H Visal, Radu Pirlog, Michael Ladomery, George A Calin

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

To date, thousands of highly abundant and conserved single-stranded RNA molecules shaped into ring structures (circRNAs) have been identified. CircRNAs are multifunctional molecules that have been shown to regulate gene expression transcriptionally and post-transcriptionally and exhibit distinct tissue- and development-specific expression patterns associated with a variety of normal and disease conditions, including cancer pathogenesis. Over the past years, due to their intrinsic stability and resistance to ribonucleases, particular attention has been drawn to their use as reliable diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in cancer diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. However, there are some critical caveats to their utility in the clinic. Their …

Time For Bugs: The Immune Microenvironment And Microbes In Precancer, Mikayla Borthwick Bowen, Beth A Helmink, Jennifer A Wargo, Melinda S Yates

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Major advances in our understanding of the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) in established cancer have been made, including the influence of host-intrinsic (host genomics) and -extrinsic factors (such as diet and the microbiome) on treatment response. Nonetheless, the immune and microbiome milieu across the spectrum of precancerous tissue and early neoplasia is a growing area of interest. There are emerging data describing the contribution of the immune microenvironment and microbiota on benign and premalignant tissues, with opportunities to target these factors in cancer prevention and interception. Throughout this review, we provide rationale for not only the critical need to further …

Prediagnostic Glycoprotein Acetyl Levels And Incident And Recurrent Flare Risk Accounting For Serum Urate Levels: A Population-Based, Prospective Study And Mendelian Randomization Analysis, Amit D Joshi, Natalie Mccormick, Chio Yokose, Bing Yu, Adrienne Tin, Robert Terkeltaub, Tony R Merriman, A Heather Eliassen, Gary C Curhan, Laura M Raffield, Hyon K Choi

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

OBJECTIVE: To prospectively investigate population-based metabolomics for incident gout and reproduce the findings for recurrent flares, accounting for serum urate.

METHODS: We conducted a prediagnostic metabolome-wide analysis among 105,615 UK Biobank participants with nuclear magnetic resonance metabolomic profiling data (168 total metabolites) from baseline blood samples collected 2006-2010 in those without history of gout. We calculated hazard ratios (HRs) for incident gout, adjusted for gout risk factors, excluding and including serum urate levels, overall and according to fasting duration before sample collection. Potential causal effects were tested with 2-sample Mendelian randomization. Poisson regression was used to calculate rate ratios (RRs) …

Ras Gtpases And Interleaflet Coupling In The Plasma Membrane, Junchen Liu, Neha Arora, Yong Zhou

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

RAS genes are frequently mutated in cancer. The primary signaling compartment of wild-type and constitutively active oncogenic mutant RAS proteins is the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane (PM). Thus, a better understanding of the unique environment of the PM inner leaflet is important to shed further light on RAS function. Over the past few decades, an integrated approach of superresolution imaging, molecular dynamic simulations, and biophysical assays has yielded new insights into the capacity of RAS proteins to sort lipids with specific headgroups and acyl chains, to assemble signaling nanoclusters on the inner PM. RAS proteins also sense and …

Worth A Pound Of Cure? Emerging Strategies And Challenges In Cancer Immunoprevention, Saurav D Haldar, Eduardo Vilar, Anirban Maitra, Neeha Zaidi

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Cancer immunoprevention applies immunologic approaches such as vaccines to prevent, rather than to treat or cure, cancer. Despite limited success in the treatment of advanced disease, the development of cancer vaccines to intercept premalignant states is a promising area of current research. These efforts are supported by the rationale that vaccination in the premalignant setting is less susceptible to mechanisms of immune evasion compared with established cancer. Prophylactic vaccines have already been developed for a minority of cancers mediated by oncogenic viruses (e.g., hepatitis B and human papillomavirus). Extending the use of preventive vaccines to non-virally driven malignancies remains an …

Prognostic Significance Of Trophoblastic Cell Surface Antigen 2 Expression And Pathologic Parameters In Patients With Ampullary Adenocarcinoma, Yujie Zhang, Hua Wang, Michael Overman, Matthew Hg Katz, Huamin Wang

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Trophoblastic cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2) has been reported to be up-regulated in several types of carcinomas and is associated with aggressive behavior and poor survival. However, TROP2 expression and its clinical significance in ampullary adenocarcinoma (AA) have not been investigated. We examined TROP2 expression by immunohistochemistry in 112 patients with AAs. The associations of TROP2 expression with clinicopathologic characteristics were evaluated by χ2 analyses or Fisher's exact tests. The associations of TROP2 expression and pathologic parameters with survival were evaluated by the Kaplan-Meier method and univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses. Eighty-six AAs (76.8%) were positive for TROP2, which …

Making Waves: Integrating Wastewater Surveillance With Dynamic Modeling To Track And Predict Viral Outbreaks, Tin Phan, Samantha Brozak, Bruce Pell, Jeremiah Oghuan, Anna Gitter, Tao Hu, Ruy M Ribeiro, Ruian Ke, Kristina D Mena, Alan S Perelson, Yang Kuang, Fuqing Wu

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Wastewater surveillance has proved to be a valuable tool to track the COVID-19 pandemic. However, most studies using wastewater surveillance data revolve around establishing correlations and lead time relative to reported case data. In this perspective, we advocate for the integration of wastewater surveillance data with dynamic within-host and between-host models to better understand, monitor, and predict viral disease outbreaks. Dynamic models overcome emblematic difficulties of using wastewater surveillance data such as establishing the temporal viral shedding profile. Complementarily, wastewater surveillance data bypasses the issues of time lag and underreporting in clinical case report data, thus enhancing the utility and …

Trans-Pacific Multicenter Collaborative Study Of Minimally Invasive Proximal Versus Total Gastrectomy For Proximal Gastric And Gastroesophageal Junction Cancers, Naruhiko Ikoma, Travis Grotz, Hirofumi Kawakubo, Hyoung-Il Kim, Satoru Matsuda, Yuki Hirata, Atsushi Nakao, Loretta A Williams, Xin Shelley Wang, Tito Mendoza, Xuemei Wang, Brian D Badgwell, Paul F Mansfield, Woo-Jin Hyung, Vivian E Strong, Yuko Kitagawa

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Background: The current standard operation for proximal gastric and gastroesophageal junction (P/GEJ) cancers with limited esophageal extension is total gastrectomy (TG). TG is associated with impaired appetite and weight loss due to the loss of gastric functions such as production of ghrelin and with anemia due to intrinsic factor loss and vitamin B12 malabsorption. Theoretically, proximal gastrectomy (PG) can mitigate these problems by preserving gastric function. However, PG with direct esophagogastric reconstruction is associated with severe postoperative reflux, delayed gastric emptying, and poor quality of life (QoL). Minimally invasive PG (MIPG) with antireflux techniques has been increasingly performed by experts …

A Review Of Pulmonary Neutrophilia And Insights Into The Key Role Of Neutrophils In Particle-Induced Pathogenesis In The Lung From Animal Studies Of Lunar Dusts And Other Poorly Soluble Dust Particles, Chiu-Wing Lam, Vincent Castranova, Kevin Driscoll, David Warheit, Valerie Ryder, Ye Zhang, Patti Zeidler-Erdely, Robert Hunter, Robert Scully, William Wallace, John James, Brian Crucian, Mayra Nelman, Richard Mccluskey, Donald Gardner, Roger Renne, Roger Mcclellan

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

The mechanisms of particle-induced pathogenesis in the lung remain poorly understood. Neutrophilic inflammation and oxidative stress in the lung are hallmarks of toxicity. Some investigators have postulated that oxidative stress from particle surface reactive oxygen species (psROS) on the dust produces the toxicopathology in the lungs of dust-exposed animals. This postulate was tested concurrently with the studies to elucidate the toxicity of lunar dust (LD), which is believed to contain psROS due to high-speed micrometeoroid bombardment that fractured and pulverized lunar surface regolith. Results from studies of rats intratracheally instilled (ITI) with three LDs (prepared from an Apollo-14 lunar regolith), …
