  • The histone chaperone anti-silencing function 1 stimulates the acetylation of newly synthesized histone H3 in S-phase. 17107956

    Anti-silencing function 1 (Asf1) is a highly conserved chaperone of histones H3/H4 that assembles or disassembles chromatin during transcription, replication, and repair. We have found that budding yeast lacking Asf1 has greatly reduced levels of histone H3 acetylated at lysine 9. Lysine 9 is acetylated on newly synthesized budding yeast histone H3 prior to its assembly onto newly replicated DNA. Accordingly, we found that the vast majority of H3 Lys-9 acetylation peaked in S-phase, and this S-phase peak of H3 lysine 9 acetylation was absent in yeast lacking Asf1. By contrast, deletion of ASF1 has no effect on the S-phase specific peak of H4 lysine 12 acetylation; another modification carried by newly synthesized histones prior to chromatin assembly. We show that Gcn5 is the histone acetyltransferase responsible for the S-phase-specific peak of H3 lysine 9 acetylation. Strikingly, overexpression of Asf1 leads to greatly increased levels of H3 on acetylation on lysine 56 and Gcn5-dependent acetylation on lysine 9. Analysis of a panel of Asf1 mutations that modulate the ability of Asf1 to bind to histones H3/H4 demonstrates that the histone binding activity of Asf1 is required for the acetylation of Lys-9 and Lys-56 on newly synthesized H3. These results demonstrate that Asf1 does not affect the stability of the newly synthesized histones per se, but instead histone binding by Asf1 promotes the efficient acetylation of specific residues of newly synthesized histone H3.

  • Sex-specific effects of CNTF, IL6 and UCP2 polymorphisms on weight gain. 19833146

    The human proteins ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) and interleukin-6 (IL6) and their receptors share structural homology with leptin and its receptor. In addition, uncoupling protein-2 (UCP2) has been shown to participate the regulation of leptin on food intake. All three proteins are active in the hypothalamus. Experiments have shown that CNTF and IL6, like leptin, can influence body weight in humans and animals, while the effect of UCP2 is not consistent. In a Dutch general population (n=545) we investigated associations of CNTF (null G/A, rs1800169), IL6 (174 G/C, rs1800795) and UCP2 (A55V, rs660339 and del/ins) polymorphisms with weight gain using interaction graphs and logistic regression analysis. The average follow-up period was 6.9 years. Individuals who gained weight (n=264) were compared with individuals who remained stable in weight (n=281). In women the CNTF polymorphism (odds ratio (OR)=2.15, 95%CI: 1.27-3.64, p=0.004) and in men the IL6 polymorphism by itself (OR=2.26, 95%CI: 1.08-4.75, p=0.03) or in combination with the CNTF polymorphism, were associated with weight gain. Furthermore, CNTF and IL6 polymorphisms in interaction with UCP2 polymorphisms had similar strong effects on weight gain in women and men, respectively. All observed effects were statistically shown to be independent of serum leptin level. These results are incorporated in a biological model for weight regulation with upstream effects of CNTF and IL6, and downstream effects of UCP2. The results of this study suggest a novel mechanism for weight regulation that is active in both women and men, but strongly influenced by sex.

  • Induction of amyloid-β(1-42) in the retina and optic nerve head of chronic ocular hypertensive monkeys. 23170058

    Recent studies have indicated that accumulation of amyloid β(1-42) (Aβ(1-42)), which is associated with the progression of Alzheimer disease, may also be responsible for retinal ganglion cell death in glaucoma. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression and localization of Aβ(1-42) in the retina and the optic nerve head (ONH) of monkeys with experimental glaucoma.Five cynomolgus monkeys with a glaucomatous left eye at 4, 9, 11, 15, and 24 weeks after laser photocoagulation treatment were studied by immunohistochemical methods. Another two cynomolgus monkeys with a glaucomatous left eye at 133 weeks after laser photocoagulation treatment were used to measure Aβ(1-42) concentrations in the retina by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.At 11 to 24 weeks after the laser photocoagulation treatment, Aβ(1-42) was upregulated in the nerve fiber layer (NFL) and the ganglion cell layer (GCL) of the retina and the ONH, but the expression of amyloid precursor protein decreased in the NFL and ONH from levels at 9 weeks. The localizations of Aβ(1-42) were merged in glial fibrillary acidic protein-positive astroglial cells but not phosphorylated neurofilament heavy- or nonphosphorylated neurofilament heavy-positive axons in the retina and the ONH. Likewise, Aβ(1-42) concentrations in the retina of monkeys increased in the chronic stage of glaucoma.These findings indicate that the upregulation of Aβ(1-42) after an intraocular pressure elevation could apply to monkeys since the structure of the ONH is more similar to humans than that of rodents.

  • BRD4 bromodomain gene rearrangement in aggressive carcinoma with translocation t(15;19). 11733348

    Translocation t(15;19)(q13;p13.1) defines a lethal midline carcinoma arising adjacent to respiratory tract in young people. To characterize molecular alterations responsible for the distinctly aggressive biological behavior of this cancer, we mapped the chromosome 15 and 19 translocation breakpoints by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and Southern blotting. To evaluate preliminarily the frequency, anatomical distribution, and histological features of t(15;19) cancer, we developed a FISH assay for paraffin sections. Our findings reveal a novel oncogenic mechanism in which the chromosome 19 translocation breakpoint interrupts the coding sequence of a bromodomain gene, BRD4. These studies implicate BRD4 as a potential partner in a t(15;19)-associated fusion oncogene. In addition, we localized the chromosome 15 breakpoint to a 9-kb region in each of two cases, thereby identifying several candidate oncogenes which might represent the BRD4 fusion partner. FISH evaluation of 13 pediatric carcinomas revealed t(15;19) in one of four sinonasal carcinomas, whereas this translocation was not detected in thymic (n = 3), mucoepidermoid (n = 3), laryngeal (n = 2), or nasopharyngeal (n = 1) carcinomas. Our studies shed light on the oncogenic mechanism underlying t(15;19) and provide further evidence that this highly lethal cancer arises from respiratory mucosa.

  • Growth differentiation factor 15 and cardiovascular events in patients with stable ischemic heart disease (The Heart and Soul Study). 24439979

    Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15) is a relatively new biomarker that predicts mortality in patients with chronic stable angina or acute coronary syndrome. However, the association of GDF-15 with cardiovascular (CV) events and the mechanisms of this association are not well understood.We measured plasma GDF-15 and cardiac disease severity in 984 patients with stable ischemic heart disease who were recruited for the Heart and Soul Study between September 2000 and December 2002. Subsequent CV events (myocardial infarction, stroke, and CV death), hospitalization for heart failure, and all-cause mortality were determined by chart review during an average of 8.9-year follow-up.Each doubling in GDF-15 was associated with a 2.5-fold increased rate of CV events (hazard ratio [HR] 2.53, 95% CI 2.13-3.01, P < .001). This association persisted after extensive adjustment for covariates including comorbid conditions, measures of cardiac disease severity, cardiac function, inflammatory markers, and adipokines (HR 1.44, 95% CI 1.11-1.87, P < .01). Participants who had GDF-15 levels in the highest tertile had higher mortality compared with those in the lowest tertile (HR 2.73, 95% CI 1.80-4.15, P ≤ .001 adjusted for all covariates). Addition of GDF-15 to existing risk factors resulted in a 50% change in net reclassification of patients' risk for mortality.Higher levels of GDF-15 are associated with major CV events in patients with stable ischemic heart disease. This suggests that GDF-15 is capturing an element of risk not explained by other known risk factors.

  • Dry eye exacerbation in patients exposed to desiccating stress under controlled environmental conditions. 24412126

    To determine if controlled environmental conditions can induce acute exacerbations of signs and symptoms in dry eye and asymptomatic subjects.Prospective cross-sectional study.Nineteen patients with dry eye and 20 asymptomatic controls were exposed to controlled low humidity (5% relative humidity, desiccating environment) for 2 hours in our Controlled Environmental Research Laboratory at the University of Valladolid. The patients completed the Single-Item Score Dry Eye Questionnaire and the following diagnostic tests were performed before and after exposure: tear osmolarity, phenol red thread test, conjunctival hyperemia, fluorescein tear film break-up time, Schirmer test, and ocular surface vital staining. Sixteen molecules in the tears samples were analyzed by multiplex bead analysis.After exposure, the patients and controls had a significant (P ≤ .003) increase in corneal staining (from 0.68 ± 0.15 to 1.16 ± 0.14 and from 0.50 ± 0.15 to 1.30 ± 0.19, respectively), significantly decreased (P ≤ .01) fluorescein tear film break-up time values (from 2.78 ± 0.56 seconds to 1.94 ± 0.24 seconds and from 2.81 ± 0.24 seconds to 2.13 ± 0.19 seconds, respectively), and significantly increased (P ≤ .03) matrix metalproteinase 9 tear levels (from 10 054.4 ± 7326.6 pg/mL to 25 744.5 ± 13 212.4 pg/mL and from 10 620.5 ± 4494.3 pg/mL to 16 398.7 ± 5538.3 pg/mL, respectively). In the control group, the epidermal growth factor tear levels decreased significantly (P = .007; from 1872.1 ± 340.7 pg/mL to 1107.1 ± 173.6 pg/mL), and interleukin 6 levels increased significantly (P < .001; from 29.6 ± 5.8 pg/mL to 54.3 ± 8.3 pg/mL) after exposure.Adult patients with mild-to-moderate dry eye and asymptomatic subjects of similar ages can experience acute exacerbation in an environmental chamber that resembles the sudden worsening that patients with dry eye experience daily.

  • Expression of UTF1 in primary and metastatic testicular germ cell tumors. 20855642

    We immunohistochemically evaluated UTF1 in 104 primary and 68 metastatic testicular germ cell tumors and 339 non-germ cell tumors. The percentage of tumor cells stained was semiquantitatively scored (0, no tumor cell staining; 1+, ≤30% of cells; 2+, 31%-60% of cells; 3+, 61%-90% of cells; 4+, >90% of cells). Staining intensity (nuclear) was scored as weak, moderate, or strong. UTF1 staining was seen in all 56 intratubular germ cell neoplasias, unclassified type (2+, 1; 3+, 2; 4+, 53; weak, 4; moderate, 49; strong, 3), all 72 seminomas (1+, 2; 2+, 4; 3+, 8; 4+, 58; weak, 10; moderate, 33; strong, 29), and 59 embryonal carcinomas (3+, 2; 4+, 57; moderate, 1; strong, 58). Weak UTF1 staining was seen in 15 of 37 yolk sac tumors (1+, 10; 2+, 2; 3+, 2; 4+, 1). All 34 teratomas, 9 choriocarcinomas, and 6 spermatocytic seminomas were negative for UTF1 staining. Among the 339 non-germ cell tumors, only 18 showed weak UTF1 staining (1+ to 4+). Normal prepubertal and postpubertal spermatogonia showed weak to strong UTF1 staining. UTF1 was differentially expressed in testicular germ cell tumors. Strong UTF1 staining can be used for diagnosing embryonal carcinoma and seminoma. UTF1 expression in spermatogonia suggests its possible role in spermatogenesis and renewal of spermatogonia.

  • Corneal endothelial autocrine VIP enhances its integrity in stored human donor corneoscleral explant. 21482640

    To demonstrate corneal endothelial (CE) integrity enhanced during eye banking by a brief treatment of human donor corneoscleral explant (explant) with CE autocrine trophic factor vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP).Paired explants were used as control versus VIP (10 nM)-treated before storage in corneal storage medium (4°C). CE ciliary neurotrophic factor receptor (CNTFRα) and CNTF (0.83 nM) responsiveness in connexin 43 upregulation were monitored (Western blot analysis). CE damage in CNTF-modulated explants and corneal buttons from explants was quantified by analysis of panoramic and microscopic images of the alizarin red-stained corneal endothelium. CE cells scraped from the Descemet's membrane were counted. CE VIP receptor was demonstrated (Western blot analysis).CE cells in every VIP-treated, freshly dissected explant demonstrated higher CNTFRα levels than controls (100% vs. 142% ± 15%; P = 0.014; 7 pairs stored for 4 to 25 days). Nine days after VIP treatment of previously preserved explants, CNTF responsiveness was 174% ± 23% (P = 0.023; 4 pairs) of controls. Panoramic images of explants and corneal buttons revealed that VIP treatment reduced CE damage to 75% ± 6% (P = 0.023; 4 pairs) and 71% ± 11% (P = 0.016; 9 pairs) of controls, respectively, whereas CE damage to 39% (2 pairs) and 23% ± 4% (P less than 0.001; 7 pairs), respectively, was revealed in microscopic images. Twenty-one days after VIP treatment of previously preserved explants, CE cell retention was 206% ± 38% (P = 0.008; 14 pairs) of the control. CE cells from human donor corneas expressed VIP receptor VPAC1 (not VPAC2).CE integrity during eye banking was enhanced by a brief treatment of the explant with the CE autocrine VIP.

  • Urinary metanephrine and normetanephrine determined without extraction by using liquid chromatography and coulometric array detection. 8375055

    We describe a procedure for the direct measurement of metanephrine (MN) and normetanephrine (NMN) in hydrolyzed urine, using HPLC with coulometric array detection. Acid-hydrolyzed samples were diluted and filtered before separation by isocratic reversed-phase ion-pair chromatography. Eight serial coulometric sensors, set at incrementally increasing anodic potentials, were used to screen lower-oxidizing interferences and provide stepwise oxidation of the metanephrines. Voltammetric behavior across three adjacent sensors was used to assess resolution and aid in peak identification. Values obtained in commercial controls were consistently within the specified target range. Variability, expressed as CV, was 5.45-9.22% between runs and 1.60-4.52% within-run for both compounds. The limit of detection was 2.6 micrograms/L for MN and 2.8 micrograms/L for NMN, with a linear response to 15.0 mg/L for both analytes. Results from patients' samples correlated well with those by a method involving dual ion-exchange extraction (r = 0.963, n = 82 for MN; r = 0.9768, n = 83 for NMN). This procedure provided high selectivity and objective peak purity information while greatly simplifying sample preparation.
