Project description:Deficit of oxygen and nutrients in the tumor microenvironment (TME) triggers abnormal angiogenesis that produces dysfunctional and leaky blood vessels, which fail to adequately perfuse tumor tissues. Resulting hypoxia, exacerbation of metabolic problems and generation of immunosuppressive TME undermine the efficacy of cancer treatment. These problems can be partially alleviated by angiogenesis inhibitors. Here we propose an alternative agonist-based normalization approach utilizing a derivative of the C-type natriuretic peptide (dCNP). This well-tolerated agent stimulated formation of highly functional tumor blood vessels to reduce hypoxia. Administration of dCNP also inhibited stromagenesis and reinvigorated the anti-tumor immune responses. Treatment with dCNP decelerated growth of primary tumors and suppressed their metastases. Moreover, inclusion of dCNP into the chemo-, radio- or immune-therapeutic regimens increased their efficacy against solid tumors. These results demonstrate the proof of principle for using activators of normalized angiogenesis to improve therapies against solid tumors and characterize dCNP as the first in class amongst such agents.

Project description:Establishment of the hemochorial placentation site requires the exodus of trophoblast cells from the placenta and their transformative actions on the uterine vasculature, which is a critical but poorly understood developmental process. CBP/p300-interacting transactivator with glutamic acid/aspartic acid-rich carboxyl terminal domain 2 (CITED2) is a member of the CITED protein family of co-regulators and has been shown to possess roles in embryogenesis, including placenta development. We examined the involvement of CITED2 in the rat, which exhibits deep hemochorial placentation, a feature it shares with the human. CITED2 is distinctively expressed in the junctional zone compartment of the rat placentation site and in intrauterine invasive trophoblast cells. Homozygous disruption of the rat Cited2 locus resulted in placental and fetal growth restriction and abnormalities in heart and lung development, which are also characteristic of the CITED deficient mouse model. However, other features of the mouse Cited2 null phenotype, including exencephaly, adrenal gland agenesis, and prenatal lethality were not associated with CITED2 deficiency in the rat. Trophoblast-specific lentiviral CITED2 knockdown in the rat yielded a growth arrested placental phenotype. Smaller Cited2 null placentas were associated with a growth restricted junctional zone and coincided with a delay in intrauterine trophoblast cell invasion. Invasive trophoblast cells arise from the junctional zone. Transcriptomes of the junctional zone, the invasive trophoblast cell lineage, and differentiating trophoblast stem cells were affected by CITED2 disruption, as were placental adaptations to hypoxia and exposure to viral mimetics. Evidence for the conservation of CITED2 expression in human placental tissue and conserved actions in invasive/extravillous trophoblast cell development were demonstrated. We conclude that CITED2 is a conserved regulator of deep hemochorial placentation.

Project description:We are studying new ways to look for abnormal areas/tissues of the colon during a colonoscopy. The current scopes used for colonoscopies are very good. But if the area doesn’t look different to the naked eye, then the scope can’t improve on that. We are using special stains or dyes and special scopes to see abnormal areas that are hard to see with the naked eye. The stain or dye is "fluorescent", meaning it glows when special light is used in the colonoscopy scope.
You are being asked to let us spray a peptide with a fluorescent tag onto your colon. Peptides are small chains of amino acids (the building blocks that make up proteins) linked together. The peptide we use has 7 amino acids attached to a fluorescent tag ("FIT C" or Fluoresceinisothiocyanate). FITC is used by eye doctors to examine your eyes (the yellow eye drops).
We are testing this "fluorescent peptide" to see if it will stick if there are any abnormal areas. If the peptide "sticks", it will "glow" when a special light in the scope is used. In this study, we will apply the fluorescent peptide to your colon by using a spray tube that fits in the colonoscope.
This is a phase IB study. This means that although we have applied the peptide to 25 people in our first research study, we still need to learn more about "fluorescent peptide" in people. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved this agent, but is allowing us to test it in this study. The main goal of this study is to see if the peptide "glows" well and if we can take pictures of areas that do glow.
This is a research study of the peptide and our ability to see it "glow or fluoresce". Being in this study and applying the peptide won’t change how our biopsies are taken or how your colonoscopy is done.

Project description:Backgroud:Epigenetic modifications (especially altered DNA methylation) resulting in altered gene expression may be one reason for development failure or the abnormality of the cloned animals, but the underlying mechanism of the abnormal phenotype in the cloned piglets remains unrevealed. Some cloned piglets in our study showed abnormal phenotypes such as big tongue (longer and thicker), limp, and exomphalos, which is similar to the human BWS syndrome. Here we conducted DNA methylation (DNAm) immunoprecipitation binding high throughput sequencing (MeDIP-seq) and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) of muscle tissues of cloned piglets to investigate the relationship of abnormal DNAm with gene dysregulation and the unusual phenotypes in cloned piglets. Results:Analysis of the methylomes revealed that abnormal cloned piglets suffered more hypomethylated differentially methylated regions (DMRs) than hypermethylated DMRs compared to the normal cloned piglets. The DNAm level in the CpG Island was higher in the abnormal cloned piglets. Some repetitive elements, such as SINE/tRNA-Glu Satellite/centr also showed significant differences. Besides we detected 1,711 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the two groups, of which 243 genes also changed methylation level in the abnormal cloned piglets. The altered DNA methylation mainly affected the low and silent expression genes. We also found some interesting pathways and genes, such as MAPK signalling pathway, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy pathway, TPM3 gene and the imprinted gene PLAGL1, which may played important roles in the abnormal phenotype development. Conclusions;The abnormal cloned piglets showed substantial change both in the DNAm and the gene expression levels. Our data may provide new insights into understanding the molecular mechanisms of the reprogramming of genetic information in cloned animals. We dissected the biceps femoris muscle from the abnormal cloned piglets and the normal cloned piglets, and analyzed the difference of MeDIP-seq and RNA-seq between the two groups. This represents the RNA-Seq study only
