This issue contains an important contribution from the team of Douglas Lauffenburger, Chair of the Editorial Board, at MIT, USA, in which they demonstrate the ability to characterise quantitative data on phenotypic behaviour of individual endothelial cells in response to angiogenesis signalling and relate it to overall population behaviour. They show that the behaviour of microvascular endothelial cells in a single population is heterogeneous and cannot be assumed to be the same for all cells in a given condition.. Endothelial cell phenotypic behaviors cluster into dynamic state transition programs modulated by angiogenic and angiostatic ...
This article presents a high-level conceptual framework to help orient the discussion and implementation of open-endedness in evolutionary systems. Drawing upon earlier work by Banzhaf et al. (2016), three different kinds of open-endedness are identified: exploratory, expansive, and transformational. These are characterized in terms of their relationship to the search space of phenotypic behaviors. A formalism is introduced to describe three key processes required for an evolutionary process: the generation of a phenotype from a genetic description, the evaluation of that phenotype, and the reproduction with variation of individuals according to their evaluation. The formalism makes explicit various influences in each of these processes that can easily be overlooked. The distinction is made between intrinsic and extrinsic implementations of these processes. A discussion then investigates how various interactions between these processes, and their modes of implementation, can lead to ...
Title: Coordinated Expression of Pax-5 and FAK1 in Metastasis. VOLUME: 11 ISSUE: 7. Author(s):Nicolas Crapoulet, Pierre OBrien, Rodney J. Ouellette and Gilles A. Robichaud. Affiliation:Universite de Moncton, Moncton, NB, Canada, E1A 3E9.. Keywords:Cancer, cell signaling, FAK1, focal adhesion, metastasis, Pax-5, B lymphopoiesis, cell differentiation, homeostasis, leukemia. Abstract: The Pax-5 gene encodes a B-cell-specific activator protein (BSAP) that plays a key role in B lymphocyte differentiation and embryogenesis. The deregulation of this transcription factor is also linked to B cell malignancies and recently to other cancers. More specifically, the downstream effects of Pax-5 promote cell-cell interactions and mediate the activation of adhesion genes which result in an epithelial phenotypic behavior of human carcinoma cells. To gain a better understanding of Pax-5-mediated gene regulation, we studied available gene expression data in depth and identified several Pax-5 downstream targets. ...

To increase tolerance to abiotic stresses in breeding programmes, typically families and collections of genotypes are evaluated in series of trials (environments) representing different levels of stress. The statistical analysis of the data from such trials concentrates on modelling the phenotypic behaviour of the genotypes across the set of environments. This phenotypic behaviour can be modelled in the form of genotype-specific linear and non-linear response curves in relation to environmental characterizations. Non-parallelism of the response curves indicates genotype × environment interaction. Identification of the genetic basis of the parameters determining the response curves will help in the development of breeding programmes for improving abiotic stress tolerance and understanding genotype × environment interaction. In this paper we present two strategies for locating quantitative trait loci for response-curve parameters and estimation of their allele effects. The procedures are ...
Caveolin-3, the muscle-specific isoform of caveolins, plays important roles in signal transduction. Dominant-negative mutations of the caveolin-3 gene cause autosomal dominant limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 1C (LGMD1C) with loss of caveolin-3. However, identification of the precise molecular mechanism leading to muscular atrophy in caveolin-3-deficient muscle has remained elusive. Myostatin, a member of the muscle-specific TGF-β superfamily, negatively regulates skeletal muscle volume. Here we report that caveolin-3 inhibited myostatin signaling by suppressing activation of its type I receptor; this was followed by hypophosphorylation of an intracellular effector, Mad homolog 2 (Smad2), and decreased downstream transcriptional activity. Loss of caveolin-3 in P104L mutant caveolin-3 transgenic mice caused muscular atrophy with increase in phosphorylated Smad2 (p-Smad2) as well as p21 (also known as Cdkn1a), a myostatin target gene. Introduction of the myostatin prodomain, an inhibitor of ...
At the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg, Professor Parton was mentored by Gareth Griffiths, where he honed his skills in electron microscopy while collaborating with other groups throughout the institute including Jean Gruenberg and Marino Zerial. He has maintained these collaborations to this day, despite the groups now being spread around the globe.. Collaboration has been central to his career. In a collaborative project with the laboratory of Kai Simons, he observed that the newly-discovered protein, VIP21 (later renamed caveolin-1), was an abundant marker protein of caveolae. Also at the EMBL Parton and Michael Way discovered a second member of the caveolin family, M-caveolin, now termed caveolin-3.. At The University of Queensland he collaborated with Professor John Hancock. Together they showed that caveolin mutants can act as dominant negative inhibitory mutants and that one of the mutants was a highly potent inhibitor of Ras signalling. Inhibition was specific ...

Biochemical network reconstructions have become popular tools in systems biology. Metabolicnetwork reconstructions are biochemically, genetically, and genomically (BiGG) structured databases of biochemical reactions and metabolites. They contain information such as exact reaction stoichiometry, reaction reversibility, and the relationships between genes, proteins, and reactions. Network reconstructions have been used extensively to study the phenotypic behavior of wild-type and mutant stains under a variety of conditions, linking genotypes with phenotypes. Such phenotypic simulations have allowed for the prediction of growth after genetic manipulations, prediction of growth phenotypes after adaptive evolution, and prediction of essential genes. Additionally, because network reconstructions are organism specific, they can be used to understand differences between organisms of species in a functional context.There are different types of reconstructions representing various types of biological networks

This gene encodes a caveolin family member, which functions as a component of the caveolae plasma membranes found in most cell types. Caveolin proteins are proposed to be scaffolding proteins for organizing and concentrating certain caveolin-interacting molecules. Mutations identified in this gene lead to interference with protein oligomerization or intra-cellular routing, disrupting caveolae formation and resulting in Limb-Girdle muscular dystrophy type-1C (LGMD-1C), hyperCKemia or rippling muscle disease (RMD). Alternative splicing has been identified for this locus, with inclusion or exclusion of a differentially spliced intron. In addition, transcripts utilize multiple polyA sites and contain two potential translation initiation sites. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008 ...

For phenotypic behavior to be understood in the context of cell lineage and local environment, properties of individual cells must be measured relative to population-wide traits. However, the inability to accurately identify, track and measure thousands of single cells via high-throughput microscopy has impeded dynamic studies of cell populations. We demonstrate unique labeling of cells, driven by the heterogeneous random uptake of fluorescent nanoparticles of different emission colors. By sequentially exposing a cell population to different particles, we generated a large number of unique digital codes, which corresponded to the cell-specific number of nanoparticle-loaded vesicles and were visible within a given fluorescence channel. When three colors are used, the assay can self-generate over 17,000 individual codes identifiable using a typical fluorescence microscope. The color-codes provided immediate visualization of cell identity and allowed us to track human cells with a success rate of ...

TY - CHAP. T1 - Role of caveolae in the airway. AU - Pabelick, Christina M. AU - Singh, Brij B.. AU - Prakash, Y.s.. PY - 2013/11/1. Y1 - 2013/11/1. N2 - Caveolae are flask-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane that are rich in lipids and serve as microdomains to facilitate interactions between proteins at the membrane as well as intracellular components, thus modulating signal transduction, protein and lipid transport, and other processes. Constituent caveolar proteins such as caveolins and cavins also have scaffolding domains that anchor and regulate protein function. There is now evidence that caveolae and their constituent proteins are present in airway smooth muscle in a variety of species. Caveolae in airway cells contain or interact with molecules such as receptors, ion channels, and regulatory proteins that are key to the roles of airway epithelium and smooth muscle in regulating airway structure and function. Furthermore, caveolar protein expression and regulation appear to be ...

In this study, we examined cardiomyocyte hypertrophy by several methods. PE and ET increased leucine incorporation and cell area and changed the immunostaining pattern of phalloidin from a dense staining without agonists to fiberlike staining, indicating that myocyte hypertrophy did occur at the protein and structural levels. Moreover, βMHC expression was markedly augmented by PE and ET, suggesting the transformation of myosin. These results indicate that PE and ET induced pathologic hypertrophy in cardiomyocytes. Infection with Ad.Cav-3 prevented all of these changes induced by PE and ET. Thus, caveolin-3 might act as an inhibitor of myocyte hypertrophy. The effects of overexpression of wild-type caveolin-3 were not nonspecific, because infection with Ad.LacZ did not affect myocyte hypertrophy. Overexpression of caveolin-3 in Ad.Cav-3-infected cells was associated with the prevention of both agonist-induced hypertrophy and sarcomeric disorganization seen in Ad.LacZ-infected and control cells ...
Caveolins act as scaffold proteins in multiprotein complexes and have been implicated in signaling by G protein-coupled receptors. Studies using knock-out mice suggest that beta(3)-adrenoceptor (beta(3)-AR) signaling is dependent on caveolin-1; however, it is not known whether caveolin-1 is associated with the beta(3)-AR or solely with downstream signaling proteins. We have addressed this question by examining the impact of membrane rafts and caveolin-1 on the differential signaling of mouse beta(3a)- and beta(3b)-AR isoforms that diverge at the distal C terminus. Only the beta(3b)-AR promotes pertussis toxin (PTX)-sensitive cAMP accumulation. When cells expressing the beta(3a)-AR were treated with filipin III to disrupt membrane rafts or transfected with caveolin-1 siRNA, the cyclic AMP response to the beta(3)-AR agonist CL316243 became PTX-sensitive, suggesting G alpha(i/o) coupling. The beta(3a)-AR C terminus, S (P-384) under bar PLNR (P-389) under bar DG (Y-392) under bar EGARP (P-398) under ...

Introduction: Caveolins (Cav), the principal structural proteins of the caveolar domain, have been implicated in the development of cardiac hypertrophy, pulmonary hypertension (PH) and lung remodeling. Mice with homozygous deletion of the Cav-1 gene display cardiac hypertrophy and pulmonary abnormalities characterized by thickened alveolar septa, hypercellularity and PH. In vivo administration of a cell-permeable Cav-1 mimetic peptide was previously shown to prevent the development of monocrotaline-induced pulmonary artery medial hypertrophy, PH and right ventricular hypertrophy in rats. Whether administration of such a Cav-1 peptide could rescue the cardio-pulmonary defects observed in Cav-1 KO mice remains unknown.. Methods and Results: Three week-old wild-type and Cav-1 KO mice were randomly assigned to receive a daily intraperitoneal injection of either saline, penetratin alone (AP, 2.5 mg/kg/d) or a peptide consisting of the Cav-1 scaffolding domain coupled to penetratin (AP-Cav, 2.5 ...
Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) is a 21?kDa protein enriched in caveolae and continues to be implicated in oncogenic cell transformation CHC tumorigenesis and metastasis. response to chemotherapy and radiation and tumor growth. We found Cav-1 is definitely overexpressed in human being Personal computer cell lines mouse models and human being pancreatic tumors and is associated with worse tumor grade and clinical results. In Personal computer cell lines disruption/depletion of caveolae/Cav-1 reduces proliferation colony formation and invasion. Radiation and chemotherapy up-regulate Cav-1 manifestation while Cav-1 depletion induces both chemosensitization and radiosensitization through modified apoptotic and DNA restoration signaling. and and transgene (KPC mouse) (Fig. 1B). Cav-1 manifestation was also tested on a cells microarray of 110 individuals with pancreatic malignancy and obtained semi-quantitatively for low versus high CHC manifestation. While Cav-1 is definitely virtually absent in pancreatic ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Caveolin-2 is targeted to lipid droplets, a new membrane domain in the cell. AU - Fujimoto, Toyoshi. AU - Kogo, Hiroshi. AU - Ishiguro, Kimiko. AU - Tauchi, Kumi. AU - Nomura, Ryuji. PY - 2001/3/5. Y1 - 2001/3/5. N2 - Caveolin-1 and -2 constitute a framework of caveolae in nonmuscle cells. In the present study, we showed that caveolin-2, especially its β isoform, is targeted to the surface of lipid droplets (LD) by immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy, and by subcellular fractionation. Brefeldin A treatment induced further accumulation of caveolin-2 along with caveolin-1 in LD. Analysis of mouse caveolin-2 deletion mutants revealed that the central hydrophobic domain (residues 87-119) and the NH2-terminal (residues 70-86) and COOH-terminal (residues 120-150) hydrophilic domains are all necessary for the localization in LD. The NH2- and COOH-terminal domains appeared to be related to membrane binding and exit from ER, respectively, implying that caveolin-2 is ...
where to get vector overexpressing caveolin-1? - posted in Molecular Cloning: Trying to overexpress caveolin-1 in human cancer cells...are there readymade products out there which already has cav-1 attached to a dependable promoter? If so, where should I look? Thanks in advance!
Proteins and other substances can cross the endothelial layer that lines a blood vessel via two routes. Caveolin-1 is essential for both, Siddiqui et al. show.. Researchers already knew that caveolin-1 was necessary for transcellular protein trafficking, in which macromolecules such as albumin enter an endothelial cell from the bloodstream and exit on the tissue side. Caveolae swallow these molecular travelers and bundle them into vesicles that wend through the cell. In an alternative pathway, known as the paracellular route, molecules slip between the cells of the endothelial layer, passing through the adherens junctions that fasten adjacent cells together. Previous work showed that adherens junctions become permeable in mice lacking caveolin-1, suggesting that the protein helps seal the junctions.. Siddiqui et al. dissected the molecular chain of events that connects caveolin-1 to adherens junction integrity. Loss of caveolin-1 activated the enzyme eNOS, which spawns nitric oxide (NO) that ...

Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) is a rare heterogeneous group of human diseases. Besides the characteristic presentation of weakness in the proximal limbs and shoulder or pelvic girdles, the subtypes of LGMD do not share many features in common. The group is classified, by mode of inheritance, into LGMD1 (autosomal dominant) and LGMD2 (autosomal recessive). The forms are further sub grouped based on the causative gene loci. Spontaneous animal models of LGMD are uncommon and the majority of models are in transgenic mice. Since mutations that result in LGMD sometimes result in other phenotypes, many of these animal models are useful beyond the scope of LGMD. In general the animal models of LGMD do not closely resemble the human phenotype, with a few exceptions. Although many of these models do not exactly replicate the human disease, they are still valuable tools in biomedical research, not only to further studies in understanding the mechanisms of the disease, but also to identify and test ...
TY - JOUR. T1 - AMP-dependent kinase inhibits oxidative stress-induced caveolin-1 phosphorylation and endocytosis by suppressing the dissociation between c-Abl and Prdx1 proteins in endothelial cells. AU - Takeuchi, Kimio. AU - Morizane, Yuki. AU - Kamami-Levy, Cynthia. AU - Suzuki, Jun. AU - Kayama, Maki. AU - Cai, Wenyi. AU - Miller, Joan W.. AU - Vavvas, Demetrios G.. PY - 2013/7/12. Y1 - 2013/7/12. N2 - Caveolin-1 is the primary structural component of endothelial caveolae that is essential for transcellular trafficking of albumin and is also a critical scaffolding protein that regulates the activity of signaling molecules in caveolae. Phosphorylation of caveolin-1 plays a fundamental role in the mechanism of oxidant-induced vascular hyper permeability. However, the regulatory mechanism of caveolin-1 phosphorylation remains unclear. Here we identify a previously unexpected role for AMPKin inhibition of caveolin-1 phosphorylation under oxidative stress. A pharmacological activator of AMPK, ...
Lipids are the energy source used during liver regeneration. The research group, led by Dr. Albert Pol and with members from IDIBAPS, Universitat de Barcelona and Queensland University, unveils the essential role of the protein caveolin-1 in a fundamental process for liver cure after injury or transplant. Results also evidence the existence of cellular mechanisms by which excessive accumulation of lipids in the liver is a risk factor for the apparition of hepatic tumours.
Caveolae are specialised forms of lipid rafts in the plasma membrane of most cells. They form dynamic assemblies of sphingolipids and cholesterol containing scaffolding domains with different affinities for proteins resulting in a variety of functions [1]. The constitutive Cav-1 protein is distributed ubiquitously, while Cav-2 is usually associated with Cav-1 [3, 28]. Although Cav-3 is thought to be muscle specific and is expressed in striated muscles [3, 28, 29], we and others have found that Cav-3 is not expressed within human ASM [6, 30]. Recent studies have established that ASM caveolae contain a number of proteins important to [Ca2+]i regulation (e.g. agonist receptors, Ca2+ influx channels, and force regulatory proteins such as RhoA). In canine ASM, it has been established that caveolar-enriched membrane fractions express Cav-1, L-type Ca2+ channels and plasma membrane Ca2+ ATPase, but not SR proteins such as IP3R or RyR channels [31].. In ASM of different species, in addition to Ca2+ ...
