Project description:Background and purpose:Carbon ion (C-ion) beams are concentrated to irradiate pancreatic carcinoma in the upper abdomen; however, this radiotherapy potentially causes adverse reactions in the gastrointestinal tract. FGF1 is a candidate radioprotector for radiation-induced intestinal damage, but may promote the malignancy of pancreatic cancer. An FGF1/CPP-C chimeric protein was created to enhance the intracellular signaling mode of FGF1 instead of FGFR signaling. The present study investigated the effects of FGF1/CPP-C on the intestinal adverse reactions of C-ion radiotherapy as well as its influence on the malignancy of pancreatic cancer. Materials and methods:FGF1/CPP-C was administered intraperitoneally to BALB/c mice without heparin 12?h before total body irradiation (TBI) with low-LET C-ion (17?keV/?m) at 6-8?Gy. Several radioprotective effects were examined in the jejunum. The invasion and migration of the human pancreatic carcinoma cell lines MIAPaCa-2 and PANC-1 were assessed using Boyden chambers after cultures with FGF1/CPP-C. Results:The FGF1/CPP-C treatment promoted crypt survival after C-ion irradiation at 7-8?Gy significantly more than the FGF1 treatment. FGF1/CPP-C also inhibited C-ion radiotherapy-induced apoptosis and reduced ?H2AX foci in crypt cells more than FGF1. However, FGF1/CPP-C inhibited the downstream signaling pathways of FGFRs and suppressed the activation of cell-cycle regulatory molecules in the intestine until 4?h after TBI. Furthermore, IEC6 cells were arrested in G2M after cultures with FGF1/CPP-C or FGF1, suggesting that DNA repair after irradiation is promoted by FGF1/CPP-C-induced G2M arrest. In contrast, FGF1/CPP-C appeared to be internalized into MIAPaCa-2 and PANC-1 cells more efficiently than FGF1. Therefore, FGF1/CPP-C reduced the in vitro proliferation, invasion, and migration of MIAPaCa-2 and PANC-1 cells significantly more than FGF1 through the cellular internalization of FGF1. Conclusion:These results suggest that the intracellular signaling mode of FGF1/CPP-C attenuates the intestinal adverse effects of C-ion radiotherapy without enhancing the malignancy of pancreatic carcinoma.

Project description:Fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1) binds to specific FGF receptors (FGFRs) at the surface of target cells to initiate intracellular signaling. In addition, FGF1 also binds to heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG), which act as important co-receptors. Even if some interactions with HSPGs have been characterized, it is not entirely clear if FGF1 could interact with additional proteoglycans at the cell surface. We have devised and tested a method to identify novel binding sites for FGF1 at the cell surface, which may also be applicable for other protein ligands. First, we constructed an APEX2-FGF1 fusion protein to perform proximal biotin labeling of proteins after binding of the fusion protein to cells. After functional validation of the construct, we used this method to identify binding sites for FGF1 on living cells. We confirmed the feasibility of our approach by easy detection of FGFR4, a well-known and specific receptor for FGF1. We then performed a screen in RPE1 cells and among the top hits were the proteoglycans CSPG4 (NG2) and CD44. We found that FGF1 binds CD44 through its heparin-binding moiety. Moreover, we found that FGF1 co-localizes with both CSPG4 and CD44 at the cell surface suggesting that these receptors act as storage molecules creating a reservoir of FGF1. Importantly, our data demonstrate that recombinant ligand-APEX2 fusion proteins can be used to identify novel receptor interactions at the cell-surface.

Project description:We identify fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1) as a critical transducer in adipose tissue remodeling and link its regulation to peroxisome proliferator activated-receptor ? (PPAR?), the adipocyte master regulator and target of the thiazolidinedione (TZD) class of insulin sensitizing drugs. We show that FGF1 is highly induced in adipose tissue in response to high-fat diet (HFD) and that mice lacking FGF1 develop an aggressive diabetic phenotype coupled to aberrant adipose expansion when challenged with HFD. Mechanistically, we show that transcription of FGF1 is directly regulated by an adipocyte-selective proximal PPAR response element, and that this PPAR?-FGF1 axis is evolutionarily conserved in mammals. This work describes the first phenotype of the FGF1 knockout mouse and establishes FGF1 as a new member of the NR-FGF axis critical for maintaining metabolic homeostasis and insulin sensitization. Total RNA was obtained from epidydimal white adipose tissue (eWAT) and livers from 6 month old wild-type and FGF1-/- mice after 16 weeks on normal chow or high-fat diets.

Project description:In a previous study performed in our laboratory, the level of FGF1 RNA was found to be increased in remyelinated multiple sclerosis lesions compared to control brain (unpublished observation). Astrocytes play a key role in multiple sclerosis lesion formation. To shed light on potential FGF1-mediated functions in multiple sclerosis, the impact of FGF1 on astrocytes was investigated.

Project description:Hypothalamic hamartomas (HHs) are congenital lesions of the neuroendocrine brain composed of neurons and astroglia. Frequently, HHs are associated with central precocious puberty (CPP) and/or gelastic seizures. Because HHs might express genes similar to those required for the initiation of normal puberty we used cDNA arrays to compare the gene expression profile of a HH associated with CPP with three HHs not accompanied by sexual precocity. Our aim was to identify genes whose expression may be selectively altered in the HH with CPP and hence, involved in the onset of puberty. Keywords: comparison between HH with and without CPP
