Fecal Screening Assay for Taiwanese Population

ABSTRACT: Fecal occult blood test (FOBT) is a convenient tool for the screening of asymptomatic gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding while 「guaiac-based fecal occult test (G-FOBT) 」 is increasingly replaced by the use of an 「immunochemical-based test (I-FOBT) 」 that reacts with human globin, a protein that is digested by upper GI enzymes and is specific for detecting lower GI bleeding. However, in Taiwan, although the incidence of colorectal cancer is rapidly increasing, Helicobacter pylori-related upper GI pathologies remain highly prevalent, which may imply that mass screening solely based on I-FOBT could be insufficient as significant upper GI pathologies can be missed. Since I-FOBT dose not predict upper GI pathologies, the adjuncts of G-FOBT and H. pylori stool-antigen test (HpSA) may be a potential candidate to realize a pan-detecting assay based on stool samples in a population in which both lower and upper GI lesions are equally prevalent.

First approach on the use of samples from fecal occult blood screening kits for metabolomic analysis. Application in colorectal cancer population.

Project description:Cancer is the most common disease around the world and colorectal cancer is the second most common cancer. The early diagnosis of colorectal cancer is difficult and relies on invasive diag-nostic tools such as colonoscopy and tissue biopsy. Other non-invasive techniques such as fecal occult blood screening test (FOBT) are less sensitive and accurate. The advantage of FOBT together with high throughput technology such as metabolomics could provide the advantages of non-invasive tool and the effectiveness of detecting novel colorectal cancer markers. In this way, this work focuses on the novelty of using FOBT as samples to perform metabolomics analysis and its application on colorectal cancer population.

Gastrobodies are engineered antibody mimetics resilient to pepsin and hydrochloric acid

Project description:Protein-based targeting reagents, such as antibodies and non-antibody scaffold proteins, are rapidly inactivated in the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Hydrochloric acid in gastric juice denatures proteins and activates pepsin, concentrations of which reach 1 mg/mL in the mammalian stomach. Here we present gastrobodies, a protein scaffold derived from Kunitz soybean trypsin inhibitor (SBTI). SBTI is highly resistant to the challenges of the upper GI tract, including digestive proteases, pH 2 and bile acids. Computational prediction of SBTI’s evolvability identified two nearby loops for randomization, to create a potential recognition surface which was experimentally validated by alanine scanning. We established display of SBTI on full-length pIII of M13 phage. Phage selection of gastrobody libraries against the glucosyltransferase domain of Clostridium difficile toxin B (GTD) identified hits with nanomolar affinity and enzyme inhibitory activity. Anti-GTD binders retained high stability to acid, digestive proteases and heat. We use mass spectrometry to identify cut sites outside of the gastrobody.

Ornithine Decarboxylase in Gastric Epithelial Cells Promotes the Immunopathogenesis of Helicobacter pylori Infection

Project description:Colonization by H. pylori is associated with a wide range of gastric diseases, ranging from superficial gastritis to more severe pathologies, including intestinal metaplasia and adenocarcinoma. The interplay of the host response and the pathogen affect the outcome of disease. One major component of the mucosal response to H. pylori is the activation of a strong, but inefficient immune response that fails to control the infection and frequently causes tissue damage. We have shown that polyamines can regulate H. pylori-induced inflammation. Chemical inhibition of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), which generates putrescine from L-ornithine, reduces gastritis in mice and adenocarcinoma incidence in gerbils infected with H. pylori. However, we have also demonstrated that Odc deletion in myeloid cells enhances M1 macrophage activation and gastritis. Here we used a genetic approach to assess the specific role of gastric epithelial ODC during H. pylori infection. Deletion of Odc in gastric epithelial cells reduces gastritis, attenuates epithelial proliferaton, alters the metabolome, and dowregulates the expression of immune mediators induced by H. pylori. Inhibition of ODC activity in gastric epithelial cells reduces H. pylori-induced NF-B activation and CXCL8 mRNA expression. Chronic inflammation is a major risk factor for the progression to more severe pathologies associated with H. pylori infection and we now show that epithelial ODC plays an important role in mediating this inflammatory response.

Transcriptome profiling of m6A mRNA modification in GES-1 cells infected by Helicobacter pylori

Project description:Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) infection is an important factor in the occurrence of human gastric diseases, but its pathogenic mechanism is not clear. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent reversible methylation modification in mammalian RNA and it plays a crucial role in controlling many biological processes. We used MeRIP-seq technology to sequence the GES-1 cells infected with Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) for 48 h.

Project description:RATIONALE: Computed tomographic colonography (CTC) has proven to be accurate in detecting colorectal neoplasms and may be a primary test in colorectal cancer screening. PURPOSE: This clinical trial will compare participation rate, diagnostic yield and costs of computed tomographic colonography, faecal occult blood test (FOBT) and colonoscopy (CO) as a primary screening test in a population-based programme.

The function of the GIGANTEA gene StGI.04 in potato: Uncovering a new function affecting the anthocyanin content of tuber skin

Project description:GIGANTEA (GI) is a plant-specific, circadian clock-regulated, nuclear protein with pleiotropic functions studied in many plant species. It is involved in flowering, circadian clock control, chloroplast biogenesis, carbohydrate metabolism, stress responses and synthesis of volatiles. In potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), however, only its role in tuber initiation is reported. Based on the findings in other plant species we hypothesized that the function of GI is not restricted to tuberization in potato. To test this hypothesis we repressed the expression of a GI gene, StGI.04 in the commercial potato cultivar ‘Désirée’ and investigated the effect of repression at morphological and transcriptome level. We found that, like GI in other plant species, StGI.04 influences the expression of the key genes of circadian clock, flowering, starch synthesis and stress responses. Furthermore, we detected a novel function of a GI gene in influencing the anthocyanin synthesis and skin colour of potato tubers.

INCREASED HEAT SHOCK PROTEIN 70 EXPRESSION BY CM-695 ASSOCIATES WITH STRONG ANTITROMBOTIC EFFECT WITHOUT INCREASING BLEEDING

Project description:BACKGROUND Antithrombotic medications target coagulation factors. Their use is associated with an increased bleeding risk. Safer drugs are needed. We described that the heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) exhibits antithrombotic properties that do not influence bleeding. OBJECTIVES By using murine models, we want to test the hypothesis that overexpressing Hsp70 with CM-695, a dual inhibitor of HDAC6 and phosphodiesterase 9, protects against thrombosis while leaves bleeding tendency unaltered. METHODS CM-695 was used to induce Hsp70 overexpression. Hsp70 overexpressing mice were submitted to three thrombosis-triggering procedures. The ferric chloride carotid artery model was used to compare the antithrombotic role of CM-695 and rivaroxaban, a direct oral anticoagulant. The mouse tail transection model was used to compare the bleeding tendency upon CM-695 or rivaroxaban administration. RESULTS Intraperitoneal (i.p.) 20 mg/kg CM-695 increased Hsp70 expression markedly in the murine aortic tissue. This treatment delayed thrombosis in the collagen/epinephrine [P=0.04 (Log-Rank test), n=10], Rose Bengal/laser [median vessel occlusion time (OT): 58.6 vs. 39.0 minutes (min) in the control group (CG), P=0.008, n≥10] and ferric chloride (OT: 14.7 vs. 9.2 min in the CG, P=0.032, n≥10) models. I.p. 80 mg/kg CM-695 (n≥9) and intravenous 3 mg/kg rivaroxaban (n≥8) significantly delayed thrombosis. CM-695 did not induce bleeding [median bleeding time (BT): 8.5 vs. 7.5 min in the CG, n≥10]. However, this was dramatically increased by rivaroxaban (BT: 30.0 vs. 13.7 min in the CG, P=0.001, n=10). CONCLUSIONS CM-695 is a new antithrombotic drug devoid of bleeding risk that may be envisioned as a useful clinical tool.
