A herpes simplex virus type 1 immediate-early gene product, IE63, regulates small nuclear ribonucleoprotein distribution. (1993)

Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), a nuclear replicating DNA virus, has 73 identified genes of which only 4 contain introns. For this reason the virus probably makes only minimal use of the cellular RNA-splicing machinery. Antigens associated with the small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles (snRNPs) that are subunits of splicing complexes have been reported to redistribute in the nucleus and become concentrated into the intranuclear structures, the interchromatin granules, after HSV-1 infection [Martin, T. E., Barghusen, S. C., Leser, G. P. & Spear, P. G. (1987) J. Cell Biol. 105, 2069-2082]. We observe this snRNP redistribution upon HSV-1 infection, in which the widespread snRNP staining pattern changes to a restricted punctate distribution with a concomitant loss of coiled bodies in HSV-1-infected cells. We show here that expression of the immediate-early (IE) subset of HSV-1 genes is necessary and sufficient for snRNP redistribution. Using a series of HSV-1 mutants in different IE genes, we have established that specifically the product of the viral IE63 (ICP27) gene is essential for this effect, and transfection experiments revealed that IE63 expression alone can cause the snRNP redistribution. Further, we show that the IE63 gene product colocalizes with the redistributed snRNP in the nucleus. The snRNP redistribution caused by HSV-1 infection resembles the effect seen after inhibition of transcription in uninfected cells. In HSV-1-infected cells, however, the snRNP redistribution is under the control of viral IE gene products and occurs during active virus gene transcription.
Effective treatment of mitochondrial myopathy by nicotinamide riboside, a vitamin B 3 (2014)

Nutrient availability is the major regulator of life and reproduction, and a complex cellular signaling network has evolved to adapt organisms to fasting. These sensor pathways monitor cellular energy metabolism, especially mitochondrial ATP production and NAD(+)/NADH ratio, as major signals for nutritional state. We hypothesized that these signals would be modified by mitochondrial respiratory chain disease, because of inefficient NADH utilization and ATP production. Oral administration of nicotinamide riboside (NR), a vitamin B3 and NAD(+) precursor, was previously shown to boost NAD(+) levels in mice and to induce mitochondrial biogenesis. Here, we treated mitochondrial myopathy mice with NR. This vitamin effectively delayed early- and late-stage disease progression, by robustly inducing mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle and brown adipose tissue, preventing mitochondrial ultrastructure abnormalities and mtDNA deletion formation. NR further stimulated mitochondrial unfolded protein response, suggesting its protective role in mitochondrial disease. These results indicate that NR and strategies boosting NAD(+) levels are a promising treatment strategy for mitochondrial myopathy.
The pathogenetic significance of C5b-9 in IgA nephropathy (1995)

Renal biopsies from 20 patients with IgAN were retrospectively studied using monoclonal antibodies against T cells, monocytes/macrophages (MM), HLA-DR-related antigen and the C5b-9 neoantigen. Glomerular C5b-9 deposits were mainly found in the mesangial areas and showed an association with IgA (P < 0.005) and C3 deposits (P < 0.001). Interstitial T cells and MM were highly correlated with the interstitial DR + ve cells (P < 0.001 and P < 0.0005 respectively). Tubular C5b-9 deposition was observed on the tubular basement membranes and related to the numbers of interstitial T cells (P < 0.005), MM (P < 0.005) and DR + ve cells (P < 0.01) as well as to the tubular DR expression (P < 0.025). The severity of tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis showed a positive correlation with the interstitial T cells, MM and DR + ve cells, as well as with the intensity of tubular C5b-9 deposition (P < 0.05 and P < 0.05 respectively). Plasma creatinine on presentation was correlated with the numbers of interstitial T cells (P < 0.05), MM (P < 0.01), interstitial DR + ve cells (P < 0.005), and tubular C5b-9 deposits (P < 0.005). No correlation between glomerular T cells, MM, and C5b-9 deposits with plasma creatinine was seen. During follow-up, renal function deteriorated in those patients with the more extensive tubular C5b-9 deposits. In conclusion, glomerular C5b-9 deposition seems to be secondary to the IgA and C3 deposition. In contrast, tubular C5b-9 is related to the numbers of interstitial T cells and MM. Activated interstitial mononuclear cells may lead to the tubular deposition of C5b-9, which eventually might contribute to the development of tubulointerstitial lesions (TIL) and renal function impairment.

Inert and seed-competent tau monomers suggest structural origins of aggregation (2018)

Tauopathies feature progressive accumulation of tau amyloids. Pathology may begin when these amplify from a protein template, or seed, whose structure is unknown. We have purified and characterized distinct forms of tau monomer-inert (M<sub>i</sub>) and seed-competent (M<sub>s</sub>). Recombinant M<sub>s</sub> triggered intracellular tau aggregation, induced tau fibrillization in vitro, and self-assembled. M<sub>s</sub> from Alzheimer's disease also seeded aggregation and self-assembled in vitro to form seed-competent multimers. We used crosslinking with mass spectrometry to probe structural differences in M<sub>i</sub> vs. M<sub>s</sub>. Crosslinks informed models of local peptide structure within the repeat domain which suggest relative inaccessibility of residues that drive aggregation (VQIINK/VQIVYK) in M<sub>i</sub>, and exposure in M<sub>s</sub>. Limited proteolysis supported this idea. Although tau monomer has been considered to be natively unstructured, our findings belie this assumption and suggest that initiation of pathological aggregation could begin with conversion of tau monomer from an inert to a seed-competent form.
Characterization of the lactose-specific enzymes of the phosphotransferase system in Lactococcus lactis. (1990)

The plasmid-encoded lactose genes of the Lactococcus lactis phosphotransferase system encoding Enzyme IIIlac (lacF) and Enzyme IIlac (lacE) have been identified and cloned in Escherichia coli and L. lactis. Nucleotide sequence and transcription analysis showed that these genes are organized into a lactose-inducible operon with the gene order lacF-lacE-lacG-lacX, the latter two genes encoding phospho-beta-galactosidase and a 34-kDa protein with an unknown function, respectively. The lac-operon is immediately followed by an IS element that is homologous to ISS1. Enzyme IIIlac was purified from L. lactis and determination of its NH2-terminal sequence demonstrated that the lacF gene starts with a TTG codon and encodes a 105 amino acid protein (Mr = 11416). Cross-linking studies with the purified enzyme showed that Enzyme IIIlac is active as a trimer. A mutant lacF gene was identified in strain YP2-5 and appeared to encode Enzyme IIIlac containing the missense mutation G18E. The lacF gene could be expressed under control of vector-located promoter sequences resulting in overproduction of Enzyme IIIlac in E. coli and complementation of the L. lactis lacF mutant YP2-5. The deduced amino acid sequence of Enzyme IIlac consists of 586 amino acids (Mr = 61562) and shows the characteristics of a hydrophobic, integral membrane protein. The deduced primary structures of the L. lactis Enzyme IIIlac and Enzyme IIlac are homologous to those of Staphylococcus aureus (72 and 71% identity, respectively) and Lactobacillus casei (48 and 47% identity, respectively). In contrast, the organization of the lactose genes differs significantly between those Gram-positive bacteria. Heterogramic homology in specific domains was observed between the derived amino acid sequences of the lactose-specific enzymes and that of E. coli Enzyme IIIcel and Enzyme IIcel, which suggest a common function in the transport and phosphorylation of these structurally related beta-glucosides.

Identification of hnRNP P2 as TLS/FUS using electrospray mass spectrometry. (1995)

Protein complexes assembled on mRNA precursors can be separated by gel filtration chromatography to yield spliceosomal and H complex fractions (Reed R, Griffith J, Maniatis T, 1988, Cell 53:949-961; Reed R, 1990, Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 87:8031-8035.). Here we use Nano electrospray mass spectrometry (Wilm M, Mann M, 1994, Int J Mass Spectrometry Ion Processes 136:167-180) to identify proteins complexed with Adeno-pre-mRNA in the H complex peak. Four of the major hnRNP proteins, A1, B1, C1, and G, were identified by database analysis based on peptide mass and sequence information. A fifth protein in the H complex peak, corresponding to hnRNP P2, is shown to be the product of the TLS/FUS gene. This was originally identified as a chimeric oncogene formed by the chromosome translocation t(12;16) that is responsible for myxoid liposarcoma. The involvement of hnRNP P2 in oncogenesis provides a clear example of the importance of hnRNP proteins in molecular disease.

Electrical transport in passivated Pt∕TiO2∕Ti Schottky diodes (2005)

Pt ∕ Ti O 2 ∕ Ti Schottky diodes were investigated by current-voltage analysis, photoresponse, and transient photocurrent (PC) in a wide temperature range. The compact TiO2 as well as the SiO2 passivation layers were prepared by the sol-gel technique. The Schottky-barrier height (1.2–1.3eV) was equal to the difference of the work functions of Pt and Ti. The temperature dependence of the ideality factor was interpreted in terms of a Gaussian distribution of barrier heights [J. H. Werner and H. H. Güttler, J. Appl. Phys. 69, 1522 (1991)]. Space-charge-limited currents under the presence of defects with an exponential distribution were observed. Under zero-potential condition, the PC transients were practically independent of temperature and the electron drift mobility amounted to 2×10−4cm2∕(Vs). A screening dipole layer at the Pt∕TiO2 junction was formed under low forward and reverse potentials. Defects were generated under electron injection.
Protection against Papillomavirus with a Polynucleotide Vaccine (1996)

Genital infections with human papillomavirus (HPV) are increasingly recognized as a significant source of human disease; HPV is now implicated in up to 90% of cervical carcinomas. Neutralizing antibodies against papillomaviruses recognize conformational epitopes formed when viral capsid proteins assemble into virions or virus-like particles. Immunization with plasmid DNA encoding the major viral capsid protein L1 was studied as a means of inducing neutralizing antibodies and protection against virus challenge. In a cottontail rabbit papillomavirus (CRPV) model, immunization with plasmid DNA encoding L1 elicited conformationally specific neutralizing antibodies and provided immunity against papilloma formation upon challenge with CRPV. Immunization with DNA encoding the capsid protein may provide a means of protecting humans against HPV and would simplify the production of multivalent vaccines by combining plasmids that encode the viral capsid proteins of different strains. This may be of importance given the multiplicity of HPV types capable of causing disease.
Optical and Electrical Properties of Three-Dimensional Interlinked Gold Nanoparticle Assemblies (2004)

The optical and electrical properties of 11-20 nm thick films composed of approximately 4 nm gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) interlinked by six organic dithiol or bis-dithiocarbamate derivatives were compared to investigate how these properties depend on the core of the linker molecule (benzene or cyclohexane) and its metal-binding substituents (thiol or dithiocarbamate). Films prepared with the thiol-terminated linker molecules, (1,4-bis(mercaptomethyl)benzene, 1,4-bis(mercaptomethyl)cyclohexane, 1,4-bis(mercaptoacetamido)benzene, and 1,4-bis(mercaptoacetamido)cyclohexane), exhibit thermally activated charge transport. The activation energies lie between 59 and 71 meV. These films show distinct plasmon absorption bands with maxima between 554 and 589 nm. In contrast, the film prepared with 1,4-cyclohexane-bis(dithiocarbamate) has a significantly red-shifted plasmon band ( approximately 626 nm) and a pronounced absorbance in the near infrared. The activation energy for charge transport is only 14 meV. These differences are explained in terms of the formation of a resonant state at the interface due to overlap of the molecular orbital and metal wave function, leading to an apparent increase in NP diameter. The film prepared with 1,4-phenylene-bis(dithiocarbamate) exhibits metallic properties, indicating the full extension of the electron wave function between interlinked NPs. In all cases, the replacement of the benzene ring with a cyclohexane ring in the center of the linker molecule leads to a 1 order of magnitude decrease in conductivity. A linear relationship is obtained when the logarithm of conductivity is plotted as a function of the number of nonconjugated bonds in the linker molecules. This suggests that nonresonant tunneling along the nonconjugated parts of the molecule governs the electron tunneling decay constant (beta(N)(-)(CON)), while the contribution from the conjugated parts of the molecule is weak (corresponding to resonant tunneling). The obtained value for beta(N)(-)(CON) is approximately 1.0 (per non-conjugated bond) and independent of the nanoparticle-binding group. Hence, the molecules can be viewed as consisting of serial connections of electrically insulating (nonconjugated) and conductive (conjugated) parts.
Conditional ablation of Ikkb inhibits melanoma tumor development in mice (2010)

Several lines of evidence suggest that tumor cells show elevated activity of the NF-kappaB transcription factor, a phenomenon often resulting from constitutive activity of IkappaB kinase beta (IKKbeta). However, others have found that loss of NF-kappaB activity or IKKbeta is tumor promoting. The role of NF-kappaB in tumor progression is therefore controversial and varies with tumor type. We sought to more extensively investigate the role IKKbeta in melanoma tumor development by specifically disrupting Ikkb in melanocytes in an established mouse model of spontaneous melanoma, whereby HRasV12 is expressed in a melanocyte-specific, doxycycline-inducible manner in mice null for the gene encoding the tumor suppressor inhibitor cyclin-dependent kinase 4/alternative reading frame (Ink4a/Arf). Our results show that Ink4a/Arf-/- mice with melanocyte-specific deletion of Ikkb were protected from HRasV12-initiated melanoma only when p53 was expressed. This protection was accompanied by cell cycle arrest, with reduced cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (Cdk2), Cdk4, Aurora kinase A, and Aurora kinase B expression. Increased p53-mediated apoptosis was also observed, with decreased expression of the antiapoptotic proteins Bcl2 and survivin. Enhanced stabilization of p53 involved increased phosphorylation at Ser15 and reduced phosphorylation of double minute 2 (Mdm2) at Ser166. Together, our findings provide genetic and mechanistic evidence that mutant HRas initiation of tumorigenesis requires Ikkbeta-mediated NF-kappaB activity.
Relationship between Intracranial Pressure and Critical Closing Pressure in Patients with Neurotrauma (2002)

Assuming that CPP(eff) (MAP - CCP) takes into account more determinants of cerebral downstream pressure, in individual cases, the actual gold standard of CPP determination (MAP - ICP) might overestimate the CPP(eff) of therapeutic significance.
The thinking doctor: clinical decision making in contemporary medicine (2016)

Diagnostic errors are responsible for a significant number of adverse events. Logical reasoning and good decision-making skills are key factors in reducing such errors, but little emphasis has traditionally been placed on how these thought processes occur, and how errors could be minimised. In this article, we explore key cognitive ideas that underpin clinical decision making and suggest that by employing some simple strategies, physicians might be better able to understand how they make decisions and how the process might be optimised.

Hsp90 Is Required for Pheromone Signaling in Yeast (1998)

The heat-shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a cytosolic molecular chaperone that is highly abundant even at normal temperature. Specific functions for Hsp90 have been proposed based on the characterization of its interactions with certain transcription factors and kinases including Raf in vertebrates and flies. We therefore decided to address the role of Hsp90 for MAP kinase pathways in the budding yeast, an organism amenable to both genetic and biochemical analyses. We found that both basal and induced activities of the pheromone-signaling pathway depend on Hsp90. Signaling is defective in strains expressing low levels or point mutants of yeast Hsp90 (Hsp82), or human Hsp90beta instead of the wild-type protein. Ste11, a yeast equivalent of Raf, forms complexes with wild-type Hsp90 and depends on Hsp90 function for accumulation. For budding yeast, Ste11 represents the first identified endogenous "substrate" of Hsp90. Moreover, Hsp90 functions in steroid receptor and pheromone signaling can be genetically separated as the Hsp82 point mutant T525I and the human Hsp90beta are specifically defective for the former and the latter, respectively. These findings further corroborate the view that molecular chaperones must also be considered as transient or stable components of signal transduction pathways.
