Project description:Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress triggers an adaptive response which fosters tumor cell survival and resilience to stress conditions. Activation of the endoplasmic reticulum stress response, through its PERK branch, promotes the phosphorylation of the α-subunit of translation initiation factor eIF2alpha, thereby repressing general protein translation and selectively augmenting the translation of ATF4 with the downstream CHOP transcription factor and the protein disulfide oxidase ERO1. Here, we show that ISRIB, a small molecule, which inhibits the action of the phosphorylated α-subunit of eIF2, thereby activating protein translation, synergistically interacts with the genetic deficiency of protein disulfide oxidase ERO1 enfeebling tumor growth and spreading. ISRIB represses CHOP signal but surprisingly does not inhibit ERO1. Mechanistically, ISRIB increases the ER protein load with a prominent perturbing effect on ERO1 deficient Triple-Negative breast cells, which have adapted to live with low client protein load, while ERO1 deficiency selectively impairs VEGF-dependent angiogenesis. Strikingly, ERO1-deficient Triple Negative Breast Cancer xenografts have augmented ER stress response and PERK branch. In vivo, ISRIB synergistically with ERO1 deficiency inhibits the growth of Triple-Negative Breast cancer xenografts by impairing proliferation and angiogenesis, while it is not effective on the xenograft counterparts with ERO1. In summary, these results demonstrate that ISRIB together with ERO1 deficiency synergistically shatters a feature of the adaptive ER stress response while ERO1 deficiency selectively impairs angiogenesis in tumors, thereby together promoting tumor cytotoxicity. Therefore, our findings suggest two surprising findings in breast tumors: ERO1 is not regulated via CHOP and ISRIB represents a therapeutic option to efficiently inhibit tumor progression in those tumors with limited ERO1 and high PERK.

Project description:The increased urban pressures are often associated with specialization of microbial communities. Microbial communities being a critical player in the geochemical processes, makes it important to identify key environmental parameters that influence the community structure and its function.In this proect we study the influence of land use type and environmental parameters on the structure and function of microbial communities. The present study was conducted in an urban catchment, where the metal and pollutants levels are under allowable limits. The overall goal of this study is to understand the role of engineered physicochemical environment on the structure and function of microbial communities in urban storm-water canals. Microbial community structure was determined using PhyoChio (G3) Water and sediment samples were collected after a rain event from Sungei Ulu Pandan watershed of >25km2, which has two major land use types: Residential and industrial. Samples were analyzed for physicochemical variables and microbial community structure and composition. Microbial community structure was determined using PhyoChio (G3)

Project description:October 2013 surface seawater collected from Monterey Bay was incubated with 1 micromolar 13C labeled glucose, starch, acetate, lipids, protein, or amino acids for 12 hours. Community RNA was extracted and hybridized to a Roche Nimblegen microarray and analyzed by NanoSIMS to obtain isotope ratio data for all probe spots.

Project description:In nitrifying biofilms, the organic carbon to ammonia nitrogen (C/N) supply ratio can influence resource competition between heterotrophic and nitrifying bacteria for oxygen and space. We investigated the impact of acute and chronic changes in carbon supply on inter-guild competition in two moving bed biofilm reactors (MBBR), operated with (R1) and without (R0) external organic carbon supply. The microbial and nitrifying community composition of the reactors differed significantly. Interestingly, acute increases in the dissolved organic carbon inhibited nitrification in R1 ten times more than in R0. A sustained increase in the carbon supply decreased nitrification efficiency and increased denitrification activity to a greater extent in R1, and also increased the proportion of potential denitrifiers in both bioreactors. The findings suggest that autotrophic biofilms subjected to increases in carbon supply show higher nitrification and lower denitrification activity than carbon-fed biofilms. This has significant implications for the design of nitrifying bioreactors. Specifically, efficient removal of organic matter before the nitrification unit can improve the robustness of the bioreactor to varying influent quality. Thus, maintaining a low C/N ratio is important in nitrifying biofilters when acute carbon stress is expected or when anoxic activity (e.g. denitrification or H2S production) is undesirable, such as in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS).

Project description:Individuals in a population respond differently to stressful situations. While resilient individuals recover efficiently, others are susceptible to the same stressors. Most existing information regarding the factors regulating stress resilience in vertebrates is from specific areas of the brain from adult rodents or humans. In order to study resilience during development, we established a new paradigm to identify resilience in zebrafish larvae. Using this assay, we identified resilient and susceptible subsets of zebrafish larvae at 6 days post fertilization and performed gene expression analysis on whole larvae.
