Evaluation of Efficacy of DAB for Phi Bodies in Acute Leukemia

Diagnosing the type and sub-type of Leukemia is very important as the therapy, prognosis and survival rate changes with each type and sub-type. In the present study French American British (FAB) morphological classification is used and 60 % cases of Leukemia were evaluated by studying the detailed clinical features, morphology on peripheral blood smear and bone marrow aspiration. Out of the 60 cases we found that 40 cases were of acute Leukemia and 20 cases of chronic Leukemia. Out of which 24 were of acute Myeloid Leukemia, 16 of acute Lymphoid Leukemia. There were 15 cases of CML and 5 cases of CLL. Phi bodies appear to be characteristics of immature Myeloid cells in Leukemia and are seen with a higher frequency than Auer rods in acute Myeloid Leukemia

miR-7/TGF-β2 axis sustains acidic tumor microenvironment-induced lung cancer metastasis

Acidosis, regardless of hypoxia involvement, is recognized as a chronic and harsh tumor microenvironment (TME) that educates malignant cells to thrive and metastasize. Although overwhelming evidence supports an acidic environment as a driver or ubiquitous hallmark of cancer progression, the unrevealed core mechanisms underlying the direct effect of acidification on tumorigenesis have hindered the discovery of novel therapeutic targets and clinical therapy. Here, chemical-induced and transgenic mouse models for colon, liver and lung cancer were established, respectively. miR-7 and TGF-β2 expressions were examined in clinical tissues (n = 184). RNA-seq, miRNA-seq, proteomics, biosynthesis analyses and functional studies were performed to validate the mechanisms involved in the acidic TME-induced lung cancer metastasis. Our data show that lung cancer is sensitive to the increased acidification of TME, and acidic TME-induced lung cancer metastasis via inhibition of miR-7-5p. TGF-β2 is a direct target of miR-7-5p. The reduced expression of miR-7-5p subsequently increases the expression of TGF-β2 which enhances the metastatic potential of the lung cancer. Indeed, overexpression of miR-7-5p reduces the acidic pH-enhanced lung cancer metastasis. Furthermore, the human lung tumor samples also show a reduced miR-7-5p expression but an elevated level of activated TGF-β2; the expressions of both miR-7-5p and TGF-β2 are correlated with patients' survival. We are the first to identify the role of the miR-7/TGF-β2 axis in acidic pH-enhanced lung cancer metastasis. Our study not only delineates how acidification directly affects tumorigenesis, but also suggests miR-7 is a novel reliable biomarker for acidic TME and a novel therapeutic target for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment. Our study opens an avenue to explore the pH-sensitive subcellular components as novel therapeutic targets for cancer treatment.

Deubiquitinase JOSD2 stabilizes YAP/TAZ to promote cholangiocarcinoma progression

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) has emerged as an intractable cancer with scanty therapeutic regimens. The aberrant activation of Yes-associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) are reported to be common in CCA patients. However, the underpinning mechanism remains poorly understood. Deubiquitinase (DUB) is regarded as a main orchestrator in maintaining protein homeostasis. Here, we identified Josephin domain-containing protein 2 (JOSD2) as an essential DUB of YAP/TAZ that sustained the protein level through cleavage of polyubiquitin chains in a deubiquitinase activity-dependent manner. The depletion of JOSD2 promoted YAP/TAZ proteasomal degradation and significantly impeded CCA proliferation

Objective:To investigate the effects of hippocampal injection of tyrosine kinase receptor binding protein B3(Ephrin-B3) agonist on spontaneous seizures and the expression of hippocampal secretory glycoprotein (Reelin) and phosphorylated adaptor protein (p-Dab1) in epileptic model rats.Methods:Seventy-eight rats were randomly divided into control group and model group according to body mass matching with 39 rats in each group.The rats in control group were fed normaly, and the rats in model group were established epilepsy model by intraperitoneal injection of lithium chloride pilocarpine. The hippocampal tissues were taken in the acute phase (7 days), quiescent phase (14 days) and chronic phase (60 days) after the successful induction of status epilepticus. The levels of Reelin protein and p-Dab1 protein in the hippocampal tissues of epileptic model rats and normal rats were detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot.And thirteen rats were randomly selected at each time point. Another 48 rats were randomly divided into normal Fc-control group, normal EphB3-Fc group, epilepsy Fc-control group and epilepsy EphB3-Fc group, with 12 rats in each group. Rats in the first two groups were fed normally, and those in the latter two groups were established epileptic model. Seven days after modeling, all rats were injected into bilateral hippocampus with EphB3-Fc (Ephrin-B3 agonist) and FC control (control agent of Ephrin-B3 agonist) according to the grouping, once a day for 7 days. After administration, the changes of behavior and EEG were observed within two weeks. At the same time, the expression of Reelin protein and p-Dab1 protein were detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot. SPSS 21.0 was used for statistical analysis, One-way ANOVA was used for multi group comparison, and Tukey's test was used for pairwise comparison.Results:The results of immunohistochemistry and Western blot showed that compared with the control group, the levels of Reelin and p-Dab1 protein in hippocampus of model group decreased significantly at 7, 14 and 60 days after epilepsy (all P<0.01). The results of immunohistochemistry showed that compared with epilepsy Fc-control group, the levels of p-Dab1 ((0.41±0.04), (0.58±0.06), P<0.05) in epilepsy EphB3-Fc group increased significantly.Western blot result showed that the level of p-Dab1 in epilepsy EphB3-Fc group increased compared with that of epilepsy Fc-control group (1.34±0.04), (2.26±0.10), P<0.01). Compared with epilepsy Fc-control group, epilepsy EphB3-Fc group showed less average seizure duration ((39.00±1.79)s, (26.50±1.87)s; t=23.21, P<0.01), less frequencies ((2.00±0.89), (0.50±0.55); t=2.32, P<0.01) and less latent period ((6.33±1.37)day, (12.50±1.87)day; t=2.52, P<0.01) in spontaneous recurrent seizures. Compared with epilepsy Fc-control group, epilepsy EphB3-Fc group showed lower average amplitude ((37.30±1.21)μV, (29.00±1.41)μV; t=25.14, P<0.01), less average seizure duration ((5.35±0.19)s, (2.35±0.19)s; t=3.13, P<0.01). Conclusion:Ephrin-B3 alleviated spontaneous recurrent seizures by upregulating Reelin and p-Dab1 in temporal lobe epilepsy rat.

Genome-Wide Screening of Aberrant Methylation Loci for Nonsyndromic Cleft Lip / 中华医学杂志(英文版)

Background@#The pathogenicity of cleft lip (CL) is pretty complicated since it is influenced by the interaction of environment and genetic factors. The purpose of this study was to conduct a genome-wide screening of aberrant methylation loci in partial lesion tissues of patients with nonsyndromic CL (NSCL) and preliminarily validate candidate dysmethylated genes associated with NSCL.@*Methods@#Fifteen healthy and sixteen NSCL fetal lip tissue samples were collected. The Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip was used to screen aberrant methylation loci in three NSCL and three healthy lip tissues. The differential methylation sites and functions of the annotated genes between NSCL and healthy lip tissues were analyzed using minfi package of R software, cluster analysis, Gene Ontology (GO) annotation, and metabolic pathway annotation. Gene expression was assessed in nine differentially methylated genes by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The transcriptions mRNA levels of three out of nine candidate genes were downregulated remarkably in NSCL lip tissues, and these three genes' abnormal methylation loci were validated by pyrosequencing in 16 NSCL cases and 15 healthy cases.@*Results@#In total, 4879 sites in the genes of NSCL odinopoeia fetuses showed aberrant methylation when compared with normal lip tissue genome. Among these, 3661 sites were hypermethylated and 1218 sites were hypomethylated as compared to methylation levels in healthy specimens. These aberrant methylation sites involved 2849 genes and were widely distributed among the chromosomes. Most differentially methylated sites were located in cytosine-phosphoric acid-guanine islands. Based on GO analysis, aberrantly methylated genes were involved in 11 cellular components, 13 molecular functions, and a variety of biological processes. Notably, the transcription of DAB1, REELIN, and FYN was significantly downregulated in lesion tissues of NSCL fetus (P < 0.05). Pyrosequencing results validated that there were two loci in DAB1 with high methylation status in patient tissues (P < 0.05).@*Conclusions@#We detected numerous aberrantly methylated loci in lesion tissues of NSCL fetus. Aberrant gene expression in the REELIN signaling pathway might be related with NSCL. Decreased transcription of DAB1, a member of REELIN signal pathway, resulted from its abnormal high methylation, which might be one of the factors underlying the occurrence of NSCL.

Inhalable oridonin-loaded poly(lactic--glycolic)acid large porous microparticles fortreatment of primary non-small cell lung cancer

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for about 85% of all lung cancers. Traditional chemotherapy for this disease leads to serious side effects. Here we prepared an inhalable oridonin-loaded poly(lactic--glycolic)acid (PLGA) large porous microparticle (LPMP) fortreatment of NSCLC with the emulsion/solvent evaporation/freeze-drying method. The LPMPs were smooth spheres with many internal pores. Despite a geometric diameter of ~10 µm, the aerodynamic diameter of the spheres was only 2.72 µm, leading to highly efficient lung deposition.studies showed that most of oridonin was released after 1 h, whereas the alveolar macrophage uptake of LPMPs occurred after 8 h, so that most of oridonin would enter the surroundings without undergoing phagocytosis. Rat primary NSCLC models were built and administered with saline, oridonin powder, gemcitabine, and oridonin-loaded LPMPsairway, respectively. The LPMPs showed strong anticancer effects. Oridonin showed strong angiogenesis inhibition and apoptosis. Relevant mechanisms are thought to include oridonin-induced mitochondrial dysfunction accompanied by low mitochondrial membrane potentials, downregulation of BCL-2 expressions, upregulation of expressions of BAX, caspase-3 and caspase-9. The oridonin-loaded PLGA LPMPs showed high anti-NSCLC effects after pulmonary delivery. In conclusion, LPMPs are promising dry powder inhalations fortreatment of lung cancer.

Progress on DAB2IP gene / 中国病理生理杂志

Human DAB2 interaction protein (DAB2IP) is a novel member of Ras GTPase-activating protein family. It interacts directly with disabled-2 protein (DAB2/DOC2) which suppresses growth of cancers derived from different tissues, including mammary, prostate and ovarian cancers. DAB2IP was identified as an immediate downstream effector mediated by DAB2/DOC2. DAB2IP and DAB2/DOC2 form a unique protein complex that has a negative regulatory effect on the Ras-mediated signal pathway. It is demonstrated that DAB2IP is a tumor suppressor gene inactivated by methylation in several cancers. This article reviews the structure and biological functions of DAB2IP gene as well as its potential roles in carcinogenesis and evolution.

A study on the regulation of translocation of glucose transporters during hepatocarcinogenesis induced by 3'-Me DAB

The mechanism of glucose transported (GT) expression on the plasma membranes of hepatoma cells in rats induced by 3'-methyl-4-dimethylaminoazobenzene (3'-MeDAB) was studied. Cytochalasin B binding to plasma membrane fractions from control and 3'-MeDAB group in the absence of cold cytochalasin B showed 9,825 +/- 925 and 30,165 +/- 625 dpm/mg membrane protein. Scatchard plot analysis showed that the GTs present on the plasma membrane fractions in control and 3'-Me DAB groups were 5.0 and 16.0 pmol/mg membrane protein and their Kd values were 151 and 157 nM, respectively. These results suggest that the numbers of GTs in plasma membrane were increased in the 3'-Me DAB group compared to the control group. In contrast, the amounts of GTs in low density microsomal (LDM) fractions measured by a photoaffinity labeling technique using [3H]-cytochalasin B were 31,207 and 11,702 dpm/mg protein in the control and 3'-Me DAB group, respectively. These results suggest that GTs were translocated from LDM to plasma membranes during carcinogenesis. To confirm these results by an independent method 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was carried out. Gel slice No. 13 corresponding to MW of 45 kDa from plasma membrane fractions showed increased radioactivities in the 3'-Me DAB group compared to the control group. However, LDM fractions of the 3'-Me DAB group showed decreased radioactivities compared to the control group. Western blot analysis using anti-human RBC GT antibody present in the plasma membranes and LDM fractions from control and 3'-Me DAB groups did not show any significant difference, indicating low cross-reactivity between them. These results indicate that increased glucose transport seems to be more likely due to reciprocal redistribution of GTs between plasma membrane and LDM fractions.

Effect of p-Dimethylaminoazobenzene and 2(3)-tert-Butyl-4-hydroxyanisole on Lipid Pcroxidation, Glutathione-S-transferase, Peroxidase and Reductase in Rat Liver

An experiment was conducted in order to investigate the effect of p-dimethylaminoazobenzene (DAB) and 2(3)-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (BHA) on the lipid peroxidation and peroxide-destroying enzyme system in the rat liver. Dietary supplementation of DAB (0.06%) for three weeks caused the elevation of glutathione-S-transferase activity by 60% and glutathione reductase by 50%, but it decreased glutathione peroxidase and catalase activities significantly. Dietary supplementation of BHA (0.75%) also increased glutatione-S-transferase activity in the liver by 2 folds, and it counteracts DAB effect on the glutathione peroxidase and catalase activities. There was a marked increase in malon-dialdehyde content in the postnuclear fraction of liver by the treatment of DAB, but the addition of BHA lowered the malondialdehyde content to almost the control level. The protective effect of BHA on the lipid peroxidation induced by DAB administration at the enzyme level seems to be due to the induction of glutathione-S-transferase and the protection of glutathione peroxidase and catalase activities from being lowered by DAB administration.
