Description
In this study, we aim to identify candidate biomarkers which may be useful as surrogate indicators of toxicity for pre-clinical development of panPPAR-agonist drug candidates. Gene expression microarray, histopathology and clinical chemistry data were generated from liver, heart, kidney and skeletal muscles of three groups of mice administered with three different dosages of an experimental pan-peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (pan-PPAR) agonist, PPM-201, for 14 days. The histopathology and clinical chemistry data were compared with the gene expression analysis and candidate biomarker genes were identified.

Description
The polarization of macrophages into an anti-inflammatory or regulatory phenotype plays an important role in resolving inflammation. PGE2 regulates macrophage polarization via a PKA dependent pathway. PKA phosphorylates SIKs, inhibiting their ability to phosphorylate CRTC3 in cells. This in turn allows CRTC3 to translocate to the nucleus where it acts as a co-activator with the transcription factor CREB to induce IL-10 transcription. In line with this we find that either genetic or pharmacological inhibition of SIKs mimics the effect of PGE2 on IL-10 production.

Description
Analysis of the effects of three members of the FGF family (FGF1, FGF2 and FGF9) and bone morphogenic protein 4 (BMP4) on myelinating cultures generated from dissociated embryonic spinal cord. The results of both immediate (24 hours, T1 (24 hrs)) and long term treatments (10days, T2) give insights into the cumulative effects of sustained FGF and BMP mediated signal transduction in the pathogenesis of demyelinating diseases.

Description
Failure of remyelination in multiple sclerosis (MS) is associated with inhibition of oligodendrocyte precursor (OPC) differentiation, but the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. We now report inflammatory demyelination in MS is associated with localized expression of fibroblast growth factor 9 (FGF9) by oligodendrocytes and to a lesser extent astrocytes, and demonstrate FGF9 inhibits myelination and remyelination in vitro. This inhibitory activity is reversible and due to an off target FGF9-dependent effect on astrocytes that disrupts in the growth factor milieu required to support myelination.

Description
A major contributor to cancer mortality is recurrence and subsequent metastatic transformation following therapeutic intervention. In order to develop new treatment modalities or improve the efficacy of current ones it is important to understand the molecular mechanisms that promote therapy-resistance to cancer cells. One pathway that has been demonstrated to therapy resistance is autophagy, a self-digestive process that can eliminate unnecessary or damaged organelles to protect cancer cells from necrosis. Effective targeting of this pathway could lead to the development of new therapies. In our studies, we found that the VEGF-C/NRP-2 axis is involved in the activation of autophagy, which is essential for the survival of cancer cells following chemotherapy treatment. Furthermore, we identified two VEGF-C/NRP-2-regulated genes, LAMP-2 and WDFY-1 that have previously been suggested to participate in autophagy and vesicular trafficking. The upregulation of WDFY-1 upon depleted level of VEGF-C contributed to cytotoxic drug-mediated cell death. Altogether, these data suggest a link between VEGF-C/neuropilin-2 axis and cancer cell survival despite the presence of chemotherapy-induced stress.

Description
The trade-off between growth and immunity is crucial for survival in plants. An antagonistic interaction has been observed between the growth-promoting hormone brassinosteroid and pathogen associated molecular pattern (PAMP) signals, which induce immunity but inhibit growth, however the underlying molecular mechanism has remained unclear. The PRE-IBH1-HBI1 triple helix-loop-helix/basic helix-loop-helix (HLH/bHLH) cascade has been shown to mediate growth responses to several hormonal and environmental signals, but its downstream targets and role in immunity remain unknown. Here, we performed genome-wide analyses of HBI1 target genes in Arabidopsis. The results show that HBI1 regulates a set of genes that largely overlaps with targets of PIFs, but displays both similar and unique transcriptional activities compared to PIFs, supporting a role in fine-tuning the network through cooperation and antagonism with other DNA-binding factors of the network. Furthermore, HBI1 also negatively regulates a subset of defense response genes. Two PAMPs, flagellin and elongation factor, repressed HBI1 expression, whereas overexpression of HBI1 reduced the PAMP-induced growth inhibition, defense gene expression, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and flg22-induced resistance to Pseudomonas syringae pathovar tomato DC3000. These data indicate that HBI1 is a node for crosstalk between hormone and immune pathways. This study demonstrates that the PRE-IBH1-HBI1 module integrates hormone and pathogen signals, and thus plays a central role in the balance between growth and immunity in plants. Overall design: Compare the transcriptome of HBI1-Ox and wild type.

Description
TMPRSS6 is a type II transmembrane serine protease and is revealed by our work to be part of a low-iron sensing pathway. When animal gets iron deficient, TMPRSS6 is required to shut off hepcidin gene, so as to allow iron to be uptaken from GI tract. The mutant mouse, which was generated by ENU mutagenesis, has developed microcytic anemia. The phenotype is caused by a splicing error in Tmprss6 gene. However, the mechanism of TMPRSS6 effect remains elusive. To gain further insight into the molecular components of the TMPRSS6 signaling pathway, we overexpressed either TMPRSS6 or its mutant version of protein in human liver carcinoma cell line HepG2 cells, and compared the transcription status betweem these two treatments.
