To study the essence of chronic viral hepatitis B (CHB) of damp-heat retention in the middle-jiao syndrome (DRMS) from plasma proteomic angle. Plasma proteomic analyses of plasma whole protein of patients in the group with CHB of DRMS (20 cases) and subjects in the health control group (5 cases) were compared using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE), mass spectrography, and other bioinformatics analyses methods. Eight protein dots with obvious regularity changes of differential expression were obtained by 2-DE. Seven protein dots were obtained by mass spectrography (One protein dot with undetected results): apolipoprotein C2 (APO-C2), vitronectin (VN), haptoglobin (HPT), transthyretin (TTHY), APO-A1, serum amyloid P-component (SAMP), and APO-A4. Compared with the health control group, the expressions of APO-A1 and APO-A4 were somewhat higher and the expressions of the expressions of the rest five protein dots were obviously down-regulated. APO-Al and APO-A4 were of potential significance in the diagnosis of CHB patients of DRMS, prognostic markers, or treatment targets. Show less

Acute exacerbations (AE) of serum alanine aminotransferase activities that are 5 times above the normal upper limit frequently occur during the immune clearance phase of hepatitis Be antigen (HBeAg)-positive chronic hepatitis B (CHB). It is unclear how the varying clinical severities of AE reflect differences in the underlying immune responses against the hepatitis B virus. We utilized magnetic bead-based purification methods coupled with MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry to generate plasma peptide profiles from HBeAg-positive CHB patients experiencing AE without and with clinical decompensation. Hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC C18) provided a more discriminatory spectral profile than immobilized Cu(2+) metal ion affinity chromatography did for diagnosis of a clinical spectrum of AEs. Using the sorting algorithm, Support Vector Machine, a classification model consisting of 5 classifiers was determined to give a sensitivity of 94.7% and a specificity of 75% for differentiating patients with and without decompensation. Classifiers identified as fragments derived from transthyretin and apolipoprotein A-IV were significantly decreased and increased in patients with decompensation, respectively. Our study demonstrated that HIC C18 fractionation coupled with MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry can be used for differentiating AE with and without decompensation in patients with HBeAg-positive CHB.

To analyze serum proteomics differences between normal and foot and mouth disease virus (FMDV)-infected piglets, an analytical method based on liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was used. Samples of venous blood were collected before and after FMDV infection and high abundance serum albumin was removed using a commercial kit. After trypsin digestion, serum samples were processed with LC-MS/MS. Proteins were identified by peptide mass fingerprinting. We found that apolipoprotein A-IV precursor, haptoglobin and probable chemoreceptor glutamine deamidase cheD appeared after FMDV infection in the same piglet. This is believed to be the first time that serum proteomics analysis by LC-MS/MS after FMDV infection has been performed, and our results may provide further information about biomarkers for early diagnosis of FMD in piglets.

To explore the distribution characteristics of apolipoprotein A5 (ApoA5) gene c.553G > T polymorphism and the relationship of serum lipid in Chinese Han and Uighur populations in Xinjiang, China. The genotypes of ApoA5 gene c.553G > T polymorphism were detected in 406 Uighur and 527 Han people by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). The frequencies of GG, GT and TT genotypes of ApoA5 gene c.553G > T were 378 (93.1%), 27 (6.7%) and 1 (0.25%) patients in Uighurs versus 478 (90.7%) patients, 49 (9.3%) patients and 0% in Hans. There was no significant difference in the distribution of genotypes between two groups (P > 0.05). In both groups, individuals with T allele (TT + GT genotype) had a higher level of serum triglyceride than those with GG genotype. After adjusting for gender, age, smoking, alcoholism, body mass index, blood pressure and blood lipid, non-conditional logistic regression analyses revealed that individuals with T allele (TT + GT genotype) in both groups had an elevated risk of HTG versus the GG genotype (OR = 3.31, 95%CI: 1.31 - 8.36 in Uighurs vs OR = 3.98, 95%CI: 1.81 - 8.74 in Hans). The mutation of c.553G > T polymorphism of ApoA5 gene is associated with the level of serum triglyceride in Uighur and Han populations of Xinjiang.

The aim is to investigate the association between coronary heart disease (CHD) and c.553G>T polymorphism of apolipoprotein A5 (ApoA5) gene and the influence of serum lipid level in the Han ethnic population of Xinjiang. The polymorphism of ApoA5 gene in 486 patients with CHD and 501 controls was analyzed by methods of polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Level of serum lipid in each patient was detected at the same time. There was significant difference in the distribution of genotypes between CHD group and controls group (χ(2)=8.757, P=0.013). Non-conditioned logistic regression analyses, after adjusted for age, gender, smoking, total serum cholesterol, presence of hypertension and diabetes, revealed that individuals who carried T allele (TT + GT genotype) had an increased risk of CHD, compared to GG genotype (OR=1.753, 95%CI: 1.030-2.983, P<0.05). There was also a remarkable difference noticed in the level of serum triglyceride by genotypes in CHD group and control group (t=-5.242, P<0.01; t=-3.499, P=0.001). Individuals in the two groups who carried T allele had higher level of serum triglyceride than those carried GG genotype. Individuals in CHD group who carried T allele had higher level of serum total cholesterol than those carried GG genotype (t=-2.465, P=0.014). It seemed that the c.553G>T polymorphism of ApoA5 gene had influenced on the level of serum triglyceride and the total cholesterol among Han population in Xinjiang. c.553G>T polymorphism was associated with the development of CHD, while T allele might be an influencing risk factor on CHD.

Little is known about the interactions of apolipoprotein (Apo) A5 gene polymorphisms and alcohol consumption on serum lipid profiles. The present study was undertaken to detect the interactions of ApoA5-1131T>C, c.553G>T and c.457G>A polymorphisms and alcohol consumption on serum lipid levels. A total of 516 nondrinkers and 514 drinkers were randomly selected from our previous stratified randomized cluster samples. Genotyping was performed by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism. The levels of serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), ApoA1 and ApoB were higher in drinkers than in nondrinkers (P<0.05-0.001). The genotypic and allelic frequencies of three loci were not different between the two groups. The interactions between -1131T>C genotypes and alcohol consumption on ApoB levels (P<0.05) and the ApoA1/ApoB ratio (P<0.01), between c.553G>T genotypes and alcohol consumption on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels (P<0.05) and the ApoA1/ApoB ratio (P<0.05), and between c.457G>A genotypes and alcohol consumption on TG levels (P<0.001) were detected by factorial regression analysis after controlling for potential confounders. Four haplotypes (T-G-G, C-G-G, T-A-G and C-G-T) had frequencies ranging from 0.06 to 0.87. Three haplotypes (C-G-G, T-A-G, and C-G-T) were significantly associated with serum lipid parameters. The -1131T>C genotypes were correlated with TG, and c.553G>T and c.457G>A genotypes were associated with HDL-C levels in nondrinkers (P<0.05 for all). For drinkers, the -1131T>C genotypes were correlated with TC, TG, LDL-C, ApoB levels and the ApoA1/ApoB ratio (P<0.01 for all); c.553G>T genotypes were correlated with TC, TG, HDL-C and LDL-C levels (P<0.05-0.01); and c.457G>A genotypes were associated with TG, LDL-C, ApoA1 and ApoB levels (P<0.05-0.01). The differences in some serum lipid parameters between the drinkers and nondrinkers might partly result from different interactions of the ApoA5 gene polymorphisms and alcohol consumption. Show less

To investigate the association of the -12238T/C polymorphism of apolipoprotein A5 (APOA5) gene with coronary heart disease (CHD) and the influence of serum lipid levels in Chinese Uygur population of Xinjiang. The -12238T/C polymorphism of APOA5 gene in 344 patients with CHD and 408 controls was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism; the serum lipid levels were detected as well. The frequencies of CC, TC and TT genotype were 6.69%, 43.31% and 50.00% in the CHD group, while they were 14.95%, 45.10% and 39.95% in the control group. There was significant difference in the distribution of genotypes between the two groups (P < 0.01). Logistic regression analyses adjusted for age, gender, smoking, serum total cholesterol, presence of hypertension and diabetes revealed that individuals carrying CC genotype had an increased risk of CHD compared with TT genotype (OR = 0.328, 95%CI: 0.154-0.700). There was also significant difference in serum triglyceride level in genotypes between these two groups (P < 0.01). Patients in CHD group who carried CC and TC genotypes had lower serum triglyceride level than the TT genotype carriers. The -12238T/C polymorphism of APOA5 gene has influence on the serum triglyceride level in Uygur population of Xinjianxg. This polymorphism might be associated with development of CHD, and the CC genotype might be a protective factor in the development of CHD. Show less

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the apolipoprotein A5 gene (APOA5) are associated with hypertriglyceridaemia in our population. We studied the associations of SNPs in APOA5 with the metabolic syndrome (MetS) in the Hong Kong and Guangzhou Chinese. We genotyped five tagging SNPs in 1330 unrelated subjects from the Hong Kong Cardiovascular Risk Factor Prevalence Study cohort with follow-up after a median interval of 6·4 years; 1952 subjects from the Guangzhou Biobank Cohort Study-Cardiovascular Disease Subcohort were used to replicate the findings. The MetS was defined according to the consensus criteria proposed jointly by several organizations in 2009. The SNP rs662799 (-1131T>C) was associated with the MetS (odds ratio = 1·47, P = 0·00082) and the number of its components present (regression coefficient = 0·204, P = 4·6 × 10(-5) ) after adjusting for age, sex, smoking, drinking and education in Hong Kong subjects at baseline. Similar association of this SNP was found in Hong Kong subjects at follow-up (P = 0·010 and 0·00021, respectively) and in Guangzhou subjects (P = 0·0041 and 0·017, respectively). The association of rs662799 with the number of the MetS components was significant regardless of age, sex, obesity and alcohol drinking, but almost disappeared after further adjusting for plasma triglycerides. Our results showed that the -1131T>C polymorphism in APOA5 was associated with the MetS because of its strong effect on plasma triglycerides. This may partly explain the higher cardiovascular risk in people with this polymorphism. Show less

Apolipoprotein (APO) A5 gene polymorphisms have been associated with increased plasma triglyceride (TG), but the results are inconsistent. The present study was undertaken to detect the APOA5 gene polymorphisms and their associations with lipid profiles in the Guangxi Hei Yi Zhuang and Han populations. Genotyping of the APOA5 -1131T>C, c.553G>T and c.457G>A was performed in 490 subjects of Hei Yi Zhuang and 540 participants of Han Chinese aged 15-89 years. The -1131C allele frequency was higher in high total cholesterol (TC) than in normal TC subgroups in both the ethnic groups (P<0.05). The c.553T allele frequency was higher in high TG than in normal TG subgroups (P<0.01), in high APOB than in normal APOB subgroups in Hei Yi Zhuang (P<0.05), or in females than in males in Han (P<0.01). The c.457A allele frequency in Han was higher in high TG than in normal TG subgroups, in low APOA1 than in normal APOA1 subgroups, in males than in females, or in normal APOB than in high APOB subgroups (P<0.05-0.01).

Canonical Wnt signaling is controlled intracellularly by the level of β-catenin protein, which is dependent on Axin scaffolding of a complex that phosphorylates β-catenin to target it for ubiquitylation and proteasomal degradation. This function of Axin is counteracted through relocalization of Axin protein to the Wnt receptor complex to allow for ligand-activated Wnt signaling. AXIN1 and AXIN2 protein levels are regulated by tankyrase-mediated poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARsylation), which destabilizes Axin and promotes signaling. Mechanistically, how tankyrase limits Axin protein accumulation, and how tankyrase levels and activity are regulated for this function, are currently under investigation. By RNAi screening, we identified the RNF146 RING-type ubiquitin E3 ligase as a positive regulator of Wnt signaling that operates with tankyrase to maintain low steady-state levels of Axin proteins. RNF146 also destabilizes tankyrases TNKS1 and TNKS2 proteins and, in a reciprocal relationship, tankyrase activity reduces RNF146 protein levels. We show that RNF146, tankyrase, and Axin form a protein complex, and that RNF146 mediates ubiquitylation of all three proteins to target them for proteasomal degradation. RNF146 is a cytoplasmic protein that also prevents tankyrase protein aggregation at a centrosomal location. Tankyrase auto-PARsylation and PARsylation of Axin is known to lead to proteasome-mediated degradation of these proteins, and we demonstrate that, through ubiquitylation, RNF146 mediates this process to regulate Wnt signaling.

Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (CPS1) is a liver-specific, intramitochondrial, rate-limiting enzyme in the urea cycle. A previous study showed that CPS1 is the antigen for hepatocyte paraffin 1 antibody, a commonly used antibody in surgical pathology practice; and CPS1 expression appears to be down-regulated in liver cancer tissue and cell lines. The aim of this study is to understand how the CPS1 gene is regulated in liver carcinogenesis. In this report, we show that human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells do not express CPS1, whereas cultured human primary hepatocytes express abundant levels. In addition, CPS1 was silenced or down-regulated in liver tumor tissues compared with the matched noncancerous tissues. The expression of CPS1 in HCC cells was restored with a demethylation agent, 5-azacytidine. We show that two CpG dinucleotides, located near the transcription start site, and a CpG-rich region in the first intron were hypermethylated in HCC cells. The hypermethylation of the two CpG dinucleotides was also detected in HCC tumor tissues compared with noncancerous tissues. Further molecular analysis with mutagenesis indicated that the two CpG dinucleotides play a role in promoter activity of the CPS1 gene. In conclusion, our study demonstrates that DNA methylation is a key mechanism of silencing CPS1 expression in human HCC cells, and CPS1 gene hypermethylation of the two CpG dinucleotides is a potential biomarker for HCC.

The innate immune system detects viral infection predominantly by sensing viral nucleic acids. We report the identification of a viral sensor, consisting of RNA helicases DDX1, DDX21, and DHX36, and the adaptor molecule TRIF, by isolation and sequencing of poly I:C-binding proteins in myeloid dendritic cells (mDCs). Knockdown of each helicase or TRIF by shRNA blocked the ability of mDCs to mount type I interferon (IFN) and cytokine responses to poly I:C, influenza A virus, and reovirus. Although DDX1 bound poly I:C via its Helicase A domain, DHX36 and DDX21 bound the TIR domain of TRIF via their HA2-DUF and PRK domains, respectively. This sensor was localized within the cytosol, independent of the endosomes. Thus, the DDX1-DDX21-DHX36 complex represents a dsRNA sensor that uses the TRIF pathway to activate type I IFN responses in the cytosol of mDCs. Show less

Recent genome-wide association (GWA) studies have identified a number of novel genetic determinants of blood lipid concentrations in Europeans. However, it is still unclear whether these loci identified in the Caucasian GWA studies also exert the same effect on lipid concentrations in the Chinese population. We conducted a replication study assessing associations between SNPs at 15 loci and blood lipid and lipoprotein concentrations in two Chinese cohorts, comprising 2533 and 2105 individuals respectively. SNPs in APO(A1/C3/A4/A5), TIMD4-HAVCR1, DOCK7, TRIB1, ABCA1, and TOMM40-APOE showed strong associations with at least one lipids trait, and rs174546 in FADS1/2/3 showed modest association with triglyceride in the Chinese population.

The de novo design of protein-protein interfaces is a stringent test of our understanding of the principles underlying protein-protein interactions and would enable unique approaches to biological and medical challenges. Here we describe a motif-based method to computationally design protein-protein complexes with native-like interface composition and interaction density. Using this method we designed a pair of proteins, Prb and Pdar, that heterodimerize with a Kd of 130 nM, 1000-fold tighter than any previously designed de novo protein-protein complex. Directed evolution identified two point mutations that improve affinity to 180 pM. Crystal structures of an affinity-matured complex reveal binding is entirely through the designed interface residues. Surprisingly, in the in vitro evolved complex one of the partners is rotated 180° relative to the original design model, yet still maintains the central computationally designed hotspot interaction and preserves the character of many peripheral interactions. This work demonstrates that high-affinity protein interfaces can be created by designing complementary interaction surfaces on two noninteracting partners and underscores remaining challenges.

Recent genome-wide association studies have identified a number of common variants associated with fasting glucose homeostasis and type 2 diabetes in populations of European origin. This is a replication study to examine whether such associations are also observed in Chinese Hans. We genotyped nine variants in or near MADD, ADRA2A, CRY2, GLIS3, PROX1, FADS1, C2CD4B, IGF1 and IRS1 in a population-based cohort including 3,210 unrelated Chinese Hans from Beijing and Shanghai. We confirmed the associations of GLIS3-rs7034200 with fasting glucose (beta = 0.07 mmol/l, P = 0.03), beta cell function (HOMA-B) (beta = -3.03%, P = 0.009), and type 2 diabetes (OR [95%CI]  = 1.27 [1.09-1.49], P = 0.003) after adjustment for age, sex, region and BMI. The association for type 2 diabetes remained significant after adjusting for other diabetes related risk factors including family history of diabetes, lipid profile, medication information, hypertension and life style factors, while further adjustment for HOMA-B abolished the association. The A-allele of CRY2-rs11605924 was moderately associated with increased risk of combined IFG/type 2 diabetes (OR [95%CI]  = 1.15[1.01-1.30], P = 0.04). SNPs in or near MADD, ADRA2A, PROX1, FADS1, C2CD4B, IGF1, and IRS1 did not exhibit significant associations with type 2 diabetes or related glycemic traits (P≥0.10). In conclusion, our results indicate the associations of GLIS3 locus with type 2 diabetes and impaired fasting glucose in Chinese Hans, partially mediated through impaired beta-cell function. In addition, we also found modest evidence for the association of CRY2-rs11605924 with combined IFG/type 2 diabetes. Show less

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the leading cause of mortality in African Americans. To identify common genetic polymorphisms associated with CHD and its risk factors (LDL- and HDL-cholesterol (LDL-C and HDL-C), hypertension, smoking, and type-2 diabetes) in individuals of African ancestry, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 8,090 African Americans from five population-based cohorts. We replicated 17 loci previously associated with CHD or its risk factors in Caucasians. For five of these regions (CHD: CDKN2A/CDKN2B; HDL-C: FADS1-3, PLTP, LPL, and ABCA1), we could leverage the distinct linkage disequilibrium (LD) patterns in African Americans to identify DNA polymorphisms more strongly associated with the phenotypes than the previously reported index SNPs found in Caucasian populations. We also developed a new approach for association testing in admixed populations that uses allelic and local ancestry variation. Using this method, we discovered several loci that would have been missed using the basic allelic and global ancestry information only. Our conclusions suggest that no major loci uniquely explain the high prevalence of CHD in African Americans. Our project has developed resources and methods that address both admixture- and SNP-association to maximize power for genetic discovery in even larger African-American consortia. Show less

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is associated with central and peripheral deficits in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA), particularly those in the omega-3 fatty acid family. However, the etiology of these deficits remains poorly understood, and there is currently little known about the expression of genes that mediate fatty acid biosynthesis in MDD patients. The expression of FADS1 (Δ5 desaturase), FADS2 (Δ6 desaturase), HELO1 [ELOVL5] (elongase), PEX19 (peroxisome), and SCD (stearoyl-CoA desaturase [Δ9 desaturase]) was determined in the postmortem prefrontal cortex of MDD patients (n=10) and non-psychiatric controls (n=10) by real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). After correcting for multiple comparisons, FADS1 mRNA expression was significantly lower in MDD patients relative to controls (-27%, p=0.009), and there were trends for lower expression of FADS2 (-30%, p=0.07), HELO1 (-37%, p=0.02), and SCD (-43%, p=0.02). PEX19 mRNA expression did not differ between controls and MDD patients (-2%, p=0.92). There were no significant gender effects, and relative reductions in FADS1, HELO1, and SCD expression were greater in patients that did not commit suicide compared with patients that did commit suicide. The sample size was small, and all MDD patients were receiving antidepressant medications. Principal genes involved in LC-PUFA and monounsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis are down-regulated in the postmortem prefrontal cortex of MDD patients. Additional studies are needed to replicate and extend these findings in a larger sample that includes antidepressant-free MDD patients. Show less

Although evidence suggests that a dysregulation in polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) homeostasis may contribute to the pathoetiology of bipolar disorder (BD), there is currently nothing known about the expression of genes that mediate long-chain PUFA biosynthesis in BD patients. In the present study we determined FADS1 (Δ5 desaturase), FADS2 (Δ6 desaturase), HELO1 [ELOVL5] (elongase), PEX19 (peroxisome), and SCD (stearoyl-CoA desaturase [Δ9 desaturase]) mRNA expression in the postmortem prefrontal cortex of non-psychiatric controls (n = 12) and BD patients (n = 12) by real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Changes in the activities of corresponding enzyme products were estimated from fatty acid product: precursor ratios. After correcting for multiple comparisons, FADS2 mRNA expression was significantly greater in BD patients relative to controls (+27%, p = 0.004). Indices of Δ6 desaturase activity, including 20:4/18:2 (+18%, p = 0.15) and 20:3/18:2 (+12%, p = 0.25) ratios, were numerically, but not significantly, greater in BD patients relative to controls. There were no significant group differences in FADS1 (+17%, p = 0.32), HELO1 (+4%, p = 0.81), PEX19 (-2%, p = 0.91), and SCD (+4%, p = 0.85) mRNA expression, or indices of Δ5 desaturase (+5%, 0.59), elongase (+3%, p = 0.62), and stearoyl-CoA desaturase (-11%, p = 0.10) activities. These preliminary findings demonstrate that FADS2 mRNA expression is significantly and selectively elevated in the prefrontal cortex of BD patients, and may contribute to dysregulated central PUFA biosynthesis and pro-inflammatory signaling implicated in the pathophysiology of BD.

The cardiovascular restricted bHLH transcription factor CHF1/Hey2 has been reported to play an important role in regulation of vascular smooth muscle phenotype and gene expression, but the downstream target genes that mediate these effects have not been completely elucidated. We have previously found that loss of CHF1/Hey2 in vascular smooth muscle cells leads to dysregulated expression of the matrix metalloproteinase gene MMP10 after treatment with PDGF. Here we report that loss or knockdown of CHF1/Hey2 in vascular smooth muscle cells leads to increased expression and activity of MMP10 at baseline, suggesting a direct effect of CHF1/Hey2 on MMP10 promoter regulation. To test this hypothesis, we assessed the effects of CHF1/Hey2 on a 2.5 kb MMP10 promoter region upstream of the transcriptional start site. We found that this region contains multiple elements including 12 E-boxes that mediate constitutive activity and repression by CHF1/Hey2 in 293T cells and A7r5 smooth muscle cells. Surprisingly, mutation of these E-boxes not only abolished CHF1/Hey2 repression, but also diminished constitutive expression. In addition, we observed that some of these mutations unmasked an activator function for CHF1/Hey2, which has not been previously described. These findings support the hypothesis that CHF1/Hey2 is an important regulator of MMP10 expression. Show less

Alternative splicing (AS) is a widespread mechanism underlying the generation of proteomic and regulatory complexity. However, which of the myriad of human AS events play important roles in disease is largely unknown. To identify frequently occurring AS events in lung cancer, we used AS microarray profiling and reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) assays to survey patient-matched normal and adenocarcinoma tumor tissues from the lungs of 29 individuals diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Of 5,183 profiled alternative exons, four displayed tumor-associated changes in the majority of the patients. These events affected transcripts from the VEGFA, MACF1, APP, and NUMB genes. Similar AS changes were detected in NUMB and APP transcripts in primary breast and colon tumors. Tumor-associated increases in NUMB exon 9 inclusion correlated with reduced levels of NUMB protein expression and activation of the Notch signaling pathway, an event that has been linked to tumorigenesis. Moreover, short hairpin RNA (shRNA) knockdown of NUMB followed by isoform-specific rescue revealed that expression of the exon 9-skipped (nontumor) isoform represses Notch target gene activation whereas expression of the exon 9-included (tumor) isoform lacks this activity and is capable of promoting cell proliferation. The results thus reveal widespread AS changes in NSCLC that impact cell signaling in a manner that likely contributes to tumorigenesis. Show less

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a primary cardiac disorder characterized by asymmetric thickening of the septum and left ventricular wall. HCM affects 1 in 500 individuals in the general population, and it is the most common cause of sudden death in the young and athletes. The clinic phenotype of HCM is highly variable with respect to age at onset, degree of symptoms, and risk of sudden death. HCM is usually inherited as a Mendelian autosomal dominant trait. To date, over 900 mutations have been reported in HCM, which were mainly located in 13 genes encoding cardiac sarcomere protein, e.g., MYH7, MYBPC3, and TnT. In addition, more and more mitochondrial DNA mutations were reported to be associated with the pathogenesis of HCM. Based on the description of the clinical phenotype and morphological characteristics, this review focuses on the research in the molecular pathogenic mechanism of HCM and its recent advances.

ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) promotes cholesterol and phospholipid efflux from cells to lipid-poor apolipoprotein A-I and plays an important role in atherosclerosis. In a previous study, we developed a high-throughput screening method using an ABCA1p-LUC HepG2 cell line to find upregulators of ABCA1. Using this method in the present study, we found that mycophenolic acid (MPA) upregulated ABCA1 expression (EC50=0.09 μM). MPA upregulation of ABCA1 expression was confirmed by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR and Western blot analysis in HepG2 cells. Previous work has indicated that MPA is a potent agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ; EC50=5.2-9.3 μM). Liver X receptor α (LXRα) is a target gene of PPARγ and may directly regulate ABCA1 expression. Western blot analysis showed that MPA induced LXRα protein expression in HepG2 cells. Addition of PPARγ antagonist GW9662 markedly inhibited MPA-induced ABCA1 and LXRα protein expression. These data suggest that MPA increased ABCA1 expression mainly through activation of PPARγ. Thus, the effects of MPA on upregulation of ABCA1 expression were due mainly to activation of the PPARγ-LXRα-ABCA1 signaling pathway. This is the first report that the antiatherosclerosis activity of MPA is due to this mechanism. Show less

To investigate the potential role of synthetic liver X receptors (LXRs) agonists T0901317 in lung of rats with acute lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Rats infused with LPS served as acute lung injury (ALI) models. Specific mRNA was quantified by semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase (RT-PCR) and protein expression by western blotting. Inflammatory cytokine and MPO activity assays were studied by ELISA. Histopathology analysis was evaluated by hematoxylin and eosin. The expressions of LXRα and LXRβ were gradually decreased after LPS challenge. T0901317 pretreatment efficiently reduced the production of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, while elevated the level of IL-10 in BALF of rats with ALI. T0901317 also decreased the number of inflammatory cells and the concentration of total proteins in the BALF. Compared with the LPS group, rats with ALI which were pretreated with T0901317 had lower pulmonary tissue MPO activity and lightened histopathologic changes of lung. Furthermore, the expressions of NF-κB and ICAM-1 were markedly reduced after T0901317 administration. The expressions of LXRs were significantly decreased and synthetic agonist T0901317 suppresses lung inflammatory responses and lightened histopathologic changes of lung in rats with ALI. The mechanisms of this action for T0901317 may associate with the inhibition of NF-κB activation and downregulation of adhesion molecules ICAM-1 gene. Show less

To study the effects of Jiangzhi Granule (JZG), a compound traditional Chinese herbal medicine, in regulating liver X receptor α (LXRα) and sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c) expressions in a rat model of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Forty specific pathogen-free Wistar male rats were randomly divided into normal group, untreated group, pioglitazone (PIO) group and JZG group. All rats were fed with high-fat diet (88% normal chow plus 10% lard plus 2% cholesterol) for 4 weeks except for the normal group. After the NAFLD model was established, PIO and JZG were fed to rats in the corresponding groups respectively for another 4 weeks. At the end of the 8th week, liver steatosis level was observed under a light microscope with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining; serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activities and triacylglycerol (TAG) and free fatty acid (FFA) contents in liver tissues were measured. LXRα and SREBP-1c expressions in liver tissues were determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot methods. Compared with the normal group, there were physiological changes for hepatic steatosis in liver tissues in the untreated group as observed by HE staining. JZG improved serum ALT and AST levels which were significantly increased in the untreated group. Both JZG and PIO improved FFA and TAG levels in liver tissues which were significantly increased in the untreated group. mRNA and protein levels of LXRα and SREBP-1c in the untreated group were higher than those in the normal group, while the treatment of JZG and PIO lowered their expressions. JZG may regulate fatty acid metabolic disorder by decreasing the levels of LXRα and SREBP-1c. Show less

The present study was designed to investigate the myocardial expression of liver X receptor alpha (LXRα) in a streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rat model. Immunohistochemical staining, quantitative real-time RT-PCR, and Western blot analysis were used to determine the expression of LXRα in the myocardium of STZ-induced diabetic rats. The myocardial expression of LXRα target genes, long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase 3 (ACSL3), fatty acid transporter protein (FAT/CD36), ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1), and ABCG1 were also detected. Bisulfite sequencing analysis was employed to examine the methylation status of the CpG island at the LXRα promoter region in the myocardium of STZ-induced diabetic rats. We found that LXRα mRNA and protein expression in the left ventricles, right ventricles, and atria of diabetic rats were gradually increased during the progression of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). The mRNA expression levels of ACSL3 and FAT/CD36 and the protein expression levels of ABCA1 and ABCG1 were also markedly increased in different heart chambers of diabetic rats. Moreover, there was a significant difference in the methylation status of LXRα gene between the ventricles of control and diabetic rats (P < 0.05). Our findings suggest that elevated expression of LXRα may be involved in the progression of DCM, and demethylation of LXRα is likely to be responsible for its increased expression in myocardial tissues.

C-reactive protein (CRP) is a heritable marker of chronic inflammation that is strongly associated with cardiovascular disease. We sought to identify genetic variants that are associated with CRP levels. We performed a genome-wide association analysis of CRP in 66 185 participants from 15 population-based studies. We sought replication for the genome-wide significant and suggestive loci in a replication panel comprising 16 540 individuals from 10 independent studies. We found 18 genome-wide significant loci, and we provided evidence of replication for 8 of them. Our results confirm 7 previously known loci and introduce 11 novel loci that are implicated in pathways related to the metabolic syndrome (APOC1, HNF1A, LEPR, GCKR, HNF4A, and PTPN2) or the immune system (CRP, IL6R, NLRP3, IL1F10, and IRF1) or that reside in regions previously not known to play a role in chronic inflammation (PPP1R3B, SALL1, PABPC4, ASCL1, RORA, and BCL7B). We found a significant interaction of body mass index with LEPR (P<2.9×10(-6)). A weighted genetic risk score that was developed to summarize the effect of risk alleles was strongly associated with CRP levels and explained ≈5% of the trait variance; however, there was no evidence for these genetic variants explaining the association of CRP with coronary heart disease. We identified 18 loci that were associated with CRP levels. Our study highlights immune response and metabolic regulatory pathways involved in the regulation of chronic inflammation. Show less

Obesity is globally prevalent and highly heritable, but its underlying genetic factors remain largely elusive. To identify genetic loci for obesity susceptibility, we examined associations between body mass index and ∼ 2.8 million SNPs in up to 123,865 individuals with targeted follow up of 42 SNPs in up to 125,931 additional individuals. We confirmed 14 known obesity susceptibility loci and identified 18 new loci associated with body mass index (P < 5 × 10⁻⁸), one of which includes a copy number variant near GPRC5B. Some loci (at MC4R, POMC, SH2B1 and BDNF) map near key hypothalamic regulators of energy balance, and one of these loci is near GIPR, an incretin receptor. Furthermore, genes in other newly associated loci may provide new insights into human body weight regulation. Show less

Estrogens have potent suppressive effects on food intake and body weight in many species, including humans. Compelling evidence suggests estrogen's anorectic action is through an indirect mechanism by enhancing the strength of other physiological signals that reduce meal size such as apolipoprotein A-IV (apo A-IV), a satiation factor from the gut and brain. We determined whether estradiol, the primary form of estrogen, modulates the anorectic effect of apo A-IV. Intrafourth ventricular administration of low doses of apo A-IV reduced food intake to a greater extent in ovariectomized (OVX) rats cyclically treated with estradiol than in vehicle-treated OVX controls, implying that cyclic estradiol replacement increases the satiating potency of apo A-IV. OVX significantly increased food intake and body weight but decreased apo A-IV gene expression in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS). All of these alterations were reversed by cyclic regimen of estradiol treatment. The finding of colocalization of apo A-IV with estrogen receptor-alpha in the NTS suggests that estradiol might act locally in the NTS to up-regulate apo A-IV gene expression. Finally, OVX apo A-IV knockout mice had a smaller feeding response to estradiol because they ate significantly more food and gained more body weight than OVX wild-type controls during the period of cyclic estradiol replacement. These data indicate that an increased signaling of endogenous apo A-IV may partially mediate estradiol-induced inhibitory effect on feeding. Show less

Familial combined hyperlipidaemia (FCH) is the most common genetic dyslipidaemia associated with coronary artery disease. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and haplotypes in the APOA1/C3/A4/A5 gene cluster are associated with FCH in Caucasians and with elevated triglycerides (TG) in various ethnic groups. We examined these associations with FCH in Hong Kong Chinese. Fifty-six Chinese FCH patients and 176 unrelated controls were studied. Thirteen SNPs in the APOA1/C3/A4/A5 cluster were genotyped. Four alleles in APOA5 were associated with FCH (P<0.001). The -1131T>C (rs662799) and -3A>G (rs651821) SNPs in APOA5 were in almost complete linkage disequilibrium (LD, r(2)=0.99), and their minor alleles were more frequent (P<0.001) in FCH than controls (0.60 vs. 0.24). The odds ratio (OR) for FCH was 6.2 (95% CI, 2.6-14.8) and 6.1 (2.6-14.6) per copy of -1131C and -3G, respectively, and 24.6 (8.4-72.0) and 24.4 (8.4-70.9) in -1131C and -3G homozygotes, respectively, as compared to wild-type homozygotes. The 1891T>C (rs2266788) SNP was in LD (r(2)=0.68) with -1131T>C and -3A>G, and the minor allele was more frequent in FCH than controls (0.42 vs. 0.19, P<0.001). The 553G>T (rs2075291) nonsynonymous variant was also associated with FCH (0.15 vs. 0.04, P=0.001) and, along with -3A>G (or -1131T>C) and 1891T>C, contributed to haplotypes predicting FCH. The two tightly linked SNPs, -1131T>C and -3A>G polymorphism were significantly associated with lipid traits in all subjects combined, with variant homozygous subjects having higher TG and LDL-C and lower HDL-C levels. Some common polymorphisms and haplotypes in APOA5 are closely associated with FCH in Hong Kong Chinese, and these differ from those found in Caucasians. Show less

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the apolipoprotein A5 (APOA5) gene have been associated with hypertriglyceridaemia. We investigated which SNPs in the APOA5 gene were associated with triglyceride levels in two independent Chinese populations. In all, 1375 subjects in the Hong Kong Cardiovascular Risk Factor Prevalence Study were genotyped for five tagging SNPs chosen from HapMap. Replication was sought in 1996 subjects from the Guangzhou Biobank Cohort Study. Among the five SNPs, rs662799 (-1131T>C) was strongly related to log-transformed triglyceride levels among Hong Kong subjects (β=0.192, P=2.6 × 10(-13)). Plasma triglyceride level was 36.1% higher in CC compared to TT genotype. This association was confirmed in Guangzhou subjects (β=0.159, P=1.3 × 10(-12)), and was significantly irrespective of sex, age group, obesity, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, diabetes, smoking and alcohol drinking. The odds ratios and 95% confidence interval for plasma triglycerides ≥1.7 mmol/l associated with TC and CC genotypes were, respectively, 1.81 (1.37-2.39) and 2.22 (1.44-3.43) in Hong Kong and 1.27 (1.05-1.54) and 1.97 (1.42-2.73) in Guangzhou. Haplotype analysis suggested the association was due to rs662799 only. The corroborative findings in two independent populations indicate that the APOA5-1131T>C polymorphism is an important and clinically relevant determinant of plasma triglyceride levels in the Chinese population.
