Description
A need exists for biomarkers in T1D that can 1) sensitively and specifically detect disease-related immune activity prior to, and independent of, measurement of auto-antibodies towards islet cell antigens; 2) define immunopathological mechanisms; and 3) monitor changes in the inflammatory state associated with disease progression or response to therapeutic intervention. In an effort to fill this gap, we have applied a novel bioassay to both human and BB rat T1D whereby the complex milieu of inflammatory mediators present in plasma can be indirectly detected through their ability to drive transcription in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) drawn from healthy, unrelated donors. The resultant gene expressions are comprehensively measured with a microarray. In our human studies, we find that plasma of recent-onset T1D patients induces expression of a pro-inflammatory signature consisting in part of many interleukin-1 (IL-1) regulated genes related to immunological activation and immunocyte chemotaxis compared to unrelated healthy controls. This signature has been found to resolve in long-standing T1D subjects (>10 years post-onset), thus associating it with active autoimmunity. Importantly, this signature has been detected in pre-onset samples of progressors to T1D years prior to onset and prior to development of auto-antibodies directed towards islet antigens.

- Affymetrix Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array (rat2302)
Description
Human type 1 diabetes (T1D) arises through autoimmunity towards the insulin-producing pancreatic cells and is modeled by the BioBreeding (BB) rat. Factors associated with islet autoimmunity are dilute and difficult to directly measure in the periphery. Therefore, we previously utilized microarray-based bioassay where human T1D sera were used to induce a disease-specific gene expression signature in unrelated, healthy peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC).

Description
TVB-3166, an orally available, reversible, potent, and selective FASN inhibitors, was used to investigate FASN as a cancer therapeutic target. FASN inhibition with TVB-3166 induces apoptosis, inhibits anchorage-independent cell growth under lipid-rich conditions, and inhibits in vivo xenograft tumor growth.

Description
Hepatic iron overload is a risk factor for progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), although the molecular mechanisms underlying this association have remained unclear. We now show that the iron-sensing ubiquitin ligase FBXL5 is previously unrecognized oncosuppressor in liver carcinogenesis in mice. Hepatocellular iron overload evoked by FBXL5 ablation gives rise to oxidative stress, tissue damage, inflammation and compensatory proliferation in hepatocytes and to consequent promotion of liver carcinogenesis induced by exposure to a chemical carcinogen. The tumor-promoting effect of FBXL5 deficiency in the liver is also operative in a model of virus-induced HCC. FBXL5-deficient mice thus constitute the first genetically engineered mouse model of liver carcinogenesis induced by iron overload. Dysregulation of FBXL5-mediated cellular iron homeostasis was also found to be associated with poor prognosis in human HCC, implicating FBXL5 plays a significant role in defense against hepatocarcinogenesis. Overall design: Total RNA was extracted from the nontumor and tumor tissue of an Alb-Cre/Fbxl5F/F male mouse (nontumor, n = 5; tumor, n = 5) or two littermate control Fbxl5F/F mice (nontumor, n = 6; tumor, n = 6) at 45 weeks of age.

Description
Abf1 and Rap1 are General Regulatory Factors that contribute to transcriptional activation of a large number of genes, as well as to replication, silencing, and telomere structure in yeast. In spite of their widespread roles in transcription, the scope of their functional targets genome-wide has not been previously determined. We have used microarrays to examine the contribution of these essential GRFs to transcription genome-wide, by using ts mutants that dissociate from their binding sites at 37 C. We combined this data with published ChIP-chip studies and motif analysis to identify probable direct targets for Abf1 and Rap1. We also identified a substantial number of genes likely to bind Rap1 or Abf1, but not affected by loss of GRF binding. Interestingly, the results strongly suggest that Rap1 can contribute to gene activation from farther upstream than can Abf1. Also, consistent with previous work, more genes that bind Abf1 are unaffected by loss of binding than those that bind Rap1. Finally, we showed for several such genes that the Abf1 C-terminal region, which contains the putative activation domain, is not needed to confer this peculiar "memory effect" that allows continued transcription after loss of Abf1 binding.
