RNA sequencing-based single sample predictors of molecular subtype and risk of recurrence for clinical assessment of early-stage breast cancer

Cathrin Brisken, Ayyakkannu Ayyanan, Rachel Marcone

Multigene assays for molecular subtypes and biomarkers can aid management of early invasive breast cancer. Using RNA-sequencing we aimed to develop single-sample predictor (SSP) models for clinical markers, subtypes, and risk of recurrence (ROR). A cohort ...

Emerging functions of the nuclear receptor LRH-1 in liver physiology and pathology

Kristina Schoonjans, Hadrien Charles Edouard Demagny, Yu Sun

Nuclear receptors play pleiotropic roles in cell differentiation, development, proliferation, and metabolic processes to govern liver physiology and pathology. The nuclear receptor, liver receptor homolog-1 (LRH-1, NR5A2), originally identified in the live ...

Endogenous nicotinamide riboside metabolism protects against diet-induced liver damage

Carlos Canto Alvarez, Sofia Moco, Joanna Ratajczak, Miriam Valera Alberni

Supplementation with the NAD(+) precursor nicotinamide riboside (NR) ameliorates and prevents a broad array of metabolic and aging disorders in mice. However, little is known about the physiological role of endogenous NR metabolism. We have previously show ...

A new class of protein biomarkers based on subcellular distribution: application to a mouse liver cancer model

Kristina Schoonjans, Vera Monica Lemos Da Silva, Evan Graehl Williams, Pan Xu, Amir Banaei Esfahani, Chen Li, Ruedi Aebersold

To-date, most proteomic studies aimed at discovering tissue-based cancer biomarkers have compared the quantity of selected proteins between case and control groups. However, proteins generally function in association with other proteins to form modules loc ...

Adamts18 Function in Mammary Gland Development

Dalya Ataca

Ovarian hormones control mammary gland development and impinge on breast carcinogenesis acting via their cognate receptors in the luminal epithelium. The extracellular matrix has a key role in physiology and disease but how the two are linked is poorly und ...

Computational modeling of the olfactory receptor Olfr73 suggests a molecular basis for low potency of olfactory receptor-activating compounds

Horst Vogel, Horst Pick, Thamani Dahoun, Shuguang Yuan, Marc Brugarolas Campillos

The mammalian olfactory system uses hundreds of specialized G-protein-coupled olfactory receptors (ORs) to discriminate a nearly unlimited number of odorants. Cognate agonists of most ORs have not yet been identified and potential non-olfactory processes m ...

Identification of the ER-resident E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF145 as a novel LXR-regulated gene

Vincenzo Sorrentino

Cellular cholesterol metabolism is subject to tight regulation to maintain adequate levels of this central lipid molecule. Herein, the sterol-responsive Liver X Receptors (LXRs) play an important role owing to their ability to reduce cellular cholesterol l ...

Small Heterodimer Partner Deletion Prevents Hepatic Steatosis and When Combined With Farnesoid X Receptor Loss Protects Against Type 2 Diabetes in Mice

Kristina Schoonjans

Nuclear receptors farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and small heterodimer partner (SHP) are important regulators of bile acid, lipid, and glucose homeostasis. Here, we show that global Fxr(-/-) Shp(-/-) double knockout (DKO) mice are refractory to weight gain, gl ...

Hyperpolarized Magnetic Resonance Methods to Investigate Metabolic Pathways in Liver and Immune Cells

Emine Can

Dysregulation of cellular metabolism is a key feature of major diseases such as diabetes and cancer. Monitoring cellular metabolic alterations is of critical importance for improved understanding of disease progression and the development of novel therapeu ...

LRH-1 mediates anti-inflammatory and antifungal phenotype of IL-13-activated macrophages through the PPAR gamma ligand synthesis

Kristina Schoonjans, Matthias Alexander Sokrates Stein

Liver receptor homologue-1 (LRH-1) is a nuclear receptor involved in the repression of inflammatory processes in the hepatointestinal tract. Here we report that LRH-1 is expressed in macrophages and induced by the Th2 cytokine IL-13 via a mechanism involvi ...
