Park IW, Fiadjoe HK, Chaudhary P. Impact of Annexin A2 on virus life cycles. Virus Res 2024; 345:199384. [PMID: 38702018 PMCID: PMC11091703 DOI: 10.1016/j.virusres.2024.199384] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2024] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024]
Abstract
Due to the limited size of viral genomes, hijacking host machinery by the viruses taking place throughout the virus life cycle is inevitable for the survival and proliferation of the virus in the infected hosts. Recent reports indicated that Annexin A2 (AnxA2), a calcium- and lipid-binding cellular protein, plays an important role as a critical regulator in various steps of the virus life cycle. The multifarious AnxA2 functions in cells, such as adhesion, adsorption, endocytosis, exocytosis, cell proliferation and division, inflammation, cancer metastasis, angiogenesis, etc., are intimately related to the various clinical courses of viral infection. Ubiquitous expression of AnxA2 across multiple cell types indicates the broad range of susceptibility of diverse species of the virus to induce disparate viral disease in various tissues, and intracellular expression of AnxA2 in the cytoplasmic membrane, cytosol, and nucleus suggests the involvement of AnxA2 in the regulation of the different stages of various virus life cycles within host cells. However, it is yet unclear as to the molecular processes on how AnxA2 and the infected virus interplay to regulate virus life cycles and thereby the virus-associated disease courses, and hence elucidation of the molecular mechanisms on AnxA2-mediated virus life cycle will provide essential clues to develop therapeutics deterring viral disease.

Abstract
Invasive fungal infections pose a major threat to human health. Bacterial and protozoan pathogens secrete protein effectors that overcome innate immune barriers to promote microbial colonization, yet few such molecules have been identified in human fungal pathogens. Recent studies have begun to reveal these long-sought effectors and have illuminated how they subvert key cellular pathways, including apoptosis, myeloid cell polarization, Toll-like receptor signaling, and phagosome action. Thus, despite lacking the specialized secretion systems of bacteria and parasites, it is increasingly clear that fungi independently evolved effectors targeting pathways often subverted by other classes of pathogens. These findings demonstrate the remarkable power of convergent evolution to enable diverse microbes to infect humans while also setting the stage for detailed dissection of fungal disease mechanisms.

Abstract
Recent research into membrane interactions has uncovered a diverse range of therapeutic opportunities through the bioengineering of human and non-human macromolecules. Although the majority of this research is focussed on fundamental developments, emerging studies are showcasing promising new technologies to combat conditions such as cancer, Alzheimer's and inflammatory and immune-based disease, utilising the alteration of bacteriophage, adenovirus, bacterial toxins, type 6 secretion systems, annexins, mitochondrial antiviral signalling proteins and bacterial nano-syringes. To advance the field further, each of these opportunities need to be better understood, and the therapeutic models need to be further optimised. Here, we summarise the knowledge and insights into several membrane interactions and detail their current and potential uses therapeutically.

Abstract
Proteins achieve their biological functions in cells by cooperation in protein complexes. In this study, we employed fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM)-based Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) measurements to investigate protein complexes comprising S100A11 and different members of the annexin (ANX) family, such as ANXA1, ANXA2, ANXA4, ANXA5, and AnxA6, in living cells. Using an S100A11 mutant without the capacity for Ca2+ binding, we found that Ca2+ binding of S100A11 is important for distinct S100A11/ANXA2 complex formation; however, ANXA1-containing complexes were unaffected by this mutant. An increase in the intracellular calcium concentration induced calcium ionophores, which strengthened the ANXA2/S100A11 interaction. Furthermore, we were able to show that S100A11 also interacts with ANXA4 in living cells. The FLIM-FRET approach used here can serve as a tool to analyze interactions between S100A11 and distinct annexins under physiological conditions in living cells.

Front Oncol 2024; 14:1371342. [PMID: 38595825 PMCID: PMC11002074 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2024.1371342] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 03/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Our earlier research revealed that the secreted lysyl oxidase-like 4 (LOXL4) that is highly elevated in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) acts as a catalyst to lock annexin A2 on the cell membrane surface, which accelerates invasive outgrowth of the cancer through the binding of integrin-β1 on the cell surface. However, whether this machinery is subject to the LOXL4-mediated intrusive regulation remains uncertain. Methods Cell invasion was assessed using a transwell-based assay, protein-protein interactions by an immunoprecipitation-Western blotting technique and immunocytochemistry, and plasmin activity in the cell membrane by gelatin zymography. Results We revealed that cell surface annexin A2 acts as a receptor of plasminogen via interaction with S100A10, a key cell surface annexin A2-binding factor, and S100A11. We found that the cell surface annexin A2/S100A11 complex leads to mature active plasmin from bound plasminogen, which actively stimulates gelatin digestion, followed by increased invasion. Conclusion We have refined our understanding of the role of LOXL4 in TNBC cell invasion: namely, LOXL4 mediates the upregulation of annexin A2 at the cell surface, the upregulated annexin 2 binds S100A11 and S100A10, and the resulting annexin A2/S100A11 complex acts as a receptor of plasminogen, readily converting it into active-form plasmin and thereby enhancing invasion.

Abstract
Successful pregnancy requires the tolerance of the maternal immune system for the semi-allogeneic embryo, as well as a synchrony between the receptive endometrium and the competent embryo. The annexin family belongs to calcium-regulated phospholipid-binding protein, which functions as a membrane skeleton to stabilize the lipid bilayer and participate in various biological processes in humans. There is an abundance of the annexin family at the maternal-fetal interface, and it exerts a crucial role in embryo implantation and the subsequent development of the placenta. Altered expression of the annexin family and dysfunction of annexin proteins or polymorphisms of the ANXA gene are involved in a range of pregnancy complications. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge of the annexin A protein family at the maternal-fetal interface and its association with female reproductive disorders, suggesting the use of ANXA as the potential therapeutic target in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of pregnancy complications.

Mol Cell Proteomics 2024; 23:100723.

Abstract
Cerebral stroke is one of the leading causes of mortality and disability worldwide. Restoring the cerebral circulation following a period of occlusion and subsequent tissue oxygenation leads to reperfusion injury. Cerebral ischemic reperfusion (I/R) injury triggers immune and inflammatory responses, apoptosis, neuronal damage, and even death. However, the cellular function and molecular mechanisms underlying cerebral I/R-induced neuronal injury are incompletely understood. By integrating proteomic, phosphoproteomic, and transcriptomic profiling in mouse hippocampi after cerebral I/R, we revealed that the differentially expressed genes and proteins mainly fall into several immune inflammatory response-related pathways. We identified that Annexin 2 (Anxa2) was exclusively upregulated in microglial cells in response to cerebral I/R in vivo and oxygen-glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/R) in vitro. RNA-seq analysis revealed a critical role of Anxa2 in the expression of inflammation-related genes in microglia via the NF-κB signaling. Mechanistically, microglial Anxa2 is required for nuclear translocation of the p65 subunit of NF-κB and its transcriptional activity upon OGD/R in BV2 microglial cells. Anxa2 knockdown inhibited the OGD/R-induced microglia activation and markedly reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory factors, including TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6. Interestingly, conditional medium derived from Anxa2-depleted BV2 cell cultures with OGD/R treatment alleviated neuronal death in vitro. Altogether, our findings revealed that microglia Anxa2 plays a critical role in I/R injury by regulating NF-κB inflammatory responses in a non-cell-autonomous manner, which might be a potential target for the neuroprotection against cerebral I/R injury.

Abstract
Thrombosis and bleeding are significant contributors to morbidity and mortality in patients with hematological cancer, and the impact of altered fibrinolysis on bleeding and thrombosis risk is poorly understood. In this prospective cohort study, we investigated the dynamics of fibrinolysis in patients with hematological cancer. Fibrinolysis was investigated before treatment and 3 months after treatment initiation. A dynamic clot formation and lysis assay was performed beyond the measurement of plasminogen activator inhibitor 1, tissue- and urokinase-type plasminogen activators (tPA and uPA), plasmin-antiplasmin complexes (PAP), α-2-antiplasmin activity, and plasminogen activity. Clot initiation, clot propagation, and clot strength were assessed using rotational thromboelastometry. A total of 79 patients were enrolled. Patients with lymphoma displayed impaired fibrinolysis with prolonged 50% clot lysis time compared with healthy controls (P = .048). They also displayed decreased clot strength at follow-up compared with at diagnosis (P = .001). A patient with amyloid light-chain amyloidosis having overt bleeding at diagnosis displayed hyperfibrinolysis, indicated by a reduced 50% clot lysis time, α-2-antiplasmin activity, and plasminogen activity, and elevated tPA and uPA. A patient with acute promyelocytic leukemia also displayed marked hyperfibrinolysis with very high PAP, indicating extreme plasmin generation, and clot formation was not measurable, probably because of the extremely fast fibrinolysis. Fibrinolysis returned to normal after treatment in both patients. In conclusion, patients with lymphoma showed signs of impaired fibrinolysis and increased clot strength, whereas hyperfibrinolysis was seen in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia and light-chain amyloidosis. Thus, investigating fibrinolysis in patients with hematological cancer could have diagnostic value.

Abstract
Annexin A2 (Anxa2) is a calcium (Ca2+)-regulated phospholipid binding protein composed of a variable N-terminus and a conserved core domain. This protein has been widely found in many tissues and fluids, including tubule cells, glomerular epithelial cells, renal vessels, and urine. In acute kidney injury, the expression level of this protein is markedly elevated in response to acute stress. Moreover, Anxa2 is a novel biomarker and potential therapeutic target with prognostic value in chronic kidney disease. In addition, Anxa2 is associated not only with clear-cell renal cell carcinoma differentiation but also the formation of calcium-related nephrolithiasis. In this review, we discuss the characteristics and functions of Anxa2 and focus on recent reports on the role of Anxa2 in the kidney, which may be useful for future research.

Abstract
Influenza A Virus (IAV) is a recurring respiratory virus with limited availability of antiviral therapies. Understanding host proteins essential for IAV infection can identify targets for alternative host-directed therapies (HDTs). Using affinity purification-mass spectrometry and global phosphoproteomic and protein abundance analyses using three IAV strains (pH1N1, H3N2, H5N1) in three human cell types (A549, NHBE, THP-1), we map 332 IAV-human protein-protein interactions and identify 13 IAV-modulated kinases. Whole exome sequencing of patients who experienced severe influenza reveals several genes, including scaffold protein AHNAK, with predicted loss-of-function variants that are also identified in our proteomic analyses. Of our identified host factors, 54 significantly alter IAV infection upon siRNA knockdown, and two factors, AHNAK and coatomer subunit COPB1, are also essential for productive infection by SARS-CoV-2. Finally, 16 compounds targeting our identified host factors suppress IAV replication, with two targeting CDK2 and FLT3 showing pan-antiviral activity across influenza and coronavirus families. This study provides a comprehensive network model of IAV infection in human cells, identifying functional host targets for pan-viral HDT.

Abstract
Trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with traumatic injury. It describes the spectrum of coagulation abnormalities that occur because of the trauma itself and the body's response to the trauma. These coagulation abnormalities range from hypocoagulability and hyperfibrinolysis, resulting in potentially fatal bleeding, in the early stages of trauma to hypercoagulability, leading to widespread clot formation, in the later stages. Pathological changes in the vascular endothelium and its regulation of haemostasis, a phenomenon known as the endotheliopathy of trauma (EoT), are thought to underlie TIC. Our understanding of EoT and its contribution to TIC remains in its infancy largely due to the scarcity of experimental research. This review discusses the mechanisms employed by the vascular endothelium to regulate haemostasis and their dysregulation following traumatic injury before providing an overview of the available experimental in vitro and in vivo models of trauma and their applicability for the study of the EoT and its contribution to TIC.

Abstract
Insulin secretion from pancreatic β cells is essential to the maintenance of glucose homeostasis. Defects in this process result in diabetes. Identifying genetic regulators that impair insulin secretion is crucial for the identification of novel therapeutic targets. Here, we show that reduction of ZNF148 in human islets, and its deletion in stem cell-derived β cells (SC-β cells), enhances insulin secretion. Transcriptomics of ZNF148-deficient SC-β cells identifies increased expression of annexin and S100 genes whose proteins form tetrameric complexes involved in regulation of insulin vesicle trafficking and exocytosis. ZNF148 in SC-β cells prevents translocation of annexin A2 from the nucleus to its functional place at the cell membrane via direct repression of S100A16 expression. These findings point to ZNF148 as a regulator of annexin-S100 complexes in human β cells and suggest that suppression of ZNF148 may provide a novel therapeutic strategy to enhance insulin secretion.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Coagulopathy after traumatic brain injury (TBI) is common and has been closely associated with poor clinical outcomes for the affected patients. Traumatic brain injury-induced coagulopathy (TBI-IC) is consumptive in nature and evolves rapidly from an injury-induced hypercoagulable state. Traumatic brain injury-induced coagulopathy defined by laboratory tests is significantly more frequent than clinical coagulopathy, which often manifests as secondary, recurrent, or delayed intracranial or intracerebral hemorrhage. This disparity between laboratory and clinical coagulopathies has hindered progress in understanding the pathogenesis of TBI-IC and developing more accurate and predictive tests for this severe TBI complication. In this review, we discuss laboratory tests used in clinical and research studies to define TBI-IC, with specific emphasis on what the tests detect and what they do not. We also offer perspective on developing more accurate and predictive tests for this severe TBI complication.

Serum Annexin A2 concentrations are increased in patients with diabetic cardiomyopathy and are linked to cardiac dysfunctions. Diabetes Res Clin Pract 2023; 195:110196.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM) is defined as the existence of abnormal myocardial structure and functions in the absence of other cardiac diseases, such as coronary artery disease, hypertension, and significant valvular disease, in individuals with diabetes. Although abundant epidemic evidence demonstrates that diabetes is independently associated with the risk of developing heart failure, DbCM is not normally diagnosed in clinical practices due to its exclusive diagnosis, and no diagnostic biomarker was applied in a clinical test. METHODS To detect the concentrations of serum Annexin A2 in non-diabetic subjects, type 2 diabetic (T2DM) patients with or without DbCM, and analyzed its relationship to parameters of cardiac functions, glucose, lipid metabolism, and renal functions. 266 eligible participants were included and were divided into 3 groups including non-diabetic subjects (NGR), T2DM patients without DbCM (T2DM group), and the DbCM group. Echocardiography, coronary computed tomography angiography, electrocardiogram, blood pressure, thyroid function, and clinical and other biochemical parameters were measured in all participants. RESULTS Serum Annexin A2 concentrations were higher in DbCM (P < 0.05) and T2DM (P < 0.05) groups compared with the NGR group, especially in DbCM patients. Correlation analysis showed that serum Annexin A2 levels were negatively associated with left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF), LV fractional shortening (FS), the ratio of early (E-wave) and late (A-wave) LV diastolic filling velocities (E/A ratio), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and were positively correlated with age, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (Cr) (all P < 0.05). Multiple logistical regression analyses revealed that serum in both the second and the third tertiles of Annexin A2 concentration were significantly associated with DbCM. E/A ratio is the independent factor for Annexin A2 concentration when adjusted for LV FS%, BUN, and Cr. CONCLUSIONS Circulating Annexin A2 concentrations might be induced in DbCM patients and were negatively associated with cardiac systolic and diastolic functions, which suggested it might be a predictor of early diagnosis in DbCM and might be a potential therapeutic target for DbCM.

Abstract
Genome-wide genetic screens are powerful tools to identify genes that act as host factors of viruses. We have applied this technique to analyze the infection of HeLa cells by Vaccinia virus, in an attempt to find genes necessary for infection. Infection of cell populations harboring single gene inactivations resulted in no surviving cells, suggesting that no single gene knock-out was able to provide complete resistance to Vaccinia virus and thus allow cells to survive infection. In the absence of an absolute infection blockage, we explored if some gene inactivations could provide partial protection leading to a reduced probability of infection. Multiple experiments using modified screening procedures involving replication restricted viruses led to the identification of multiple genes whose inactivation potentially increase resistance to infection and therefore cell survival. As expected, significant gene hits were related to proteins known to act in virus entry, such as ITGB1 and AXL as well as genes belonging to their downstream related pathways. Additionally, we consistently found β2-microglobulin, encoded by the B2M gene, among the screening top hits, a novel finding that was further explored. Inactivation of B2M resulted in 54% and 91% reduced VV infection efficiency in HeLa and HAP1 cell lines respectively. In the absence of B2M, while virus binding to the cells was unaffected, virus internalization and early gene expression were significantly diminished. These results point to β2-microglobulin as a relevant factor in the Vaccinia virus entry process.

Abstract
Background Renal inflammation plays a crucial role during the progression of Chronic kidney disease (CKD), but there is limited research on hub genes involved in renal inflammation. Here, we aimed to explore the effects of Annexin A2 (ANXA2), a potential inflammatory regulator, on gene expression in human proximal tubular epithelial (HK2) cells. RNA-sequencing and bioinformatics analysis were performed on ANXA2-knockdown versus control HK2 cells to reveal the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and regulated alternative splicing events (RASEs). Then the DEGs and RASEs were validated by qRT-PCR. Results A total of 220 upregulated and 171 downregulated genes related to ANXA2 knockdown were identified. Genes enriched in inflammatory response pathways, such as interferon-mediated signaling, cytokine-mediated signaling, and nuclear factor κB signaling, were under global transcriptional and alternative splicing regulation by ANXA2 knockdown. qRT-PCR confirmed ANXA2-regulated transcription of chemokine gene CCL5, as well as interferon-regulating genes ISG15, IFI6, IFI44, IFITM1, and IRF7, in addition to alternative splicing of inflammatory genes UBA52, RBCK1, and LITAF. Conclusions The present study indicated that ANXA2 plays a role in inflammatory response in HK2 cells that may be mediated via the regulation of transcription and alternative splicing of inflammation-related genes.

Promiscuity mapping of the S100 protein family using a high-throughput holdup assay. Sci Rep 2022; 12:5904. [PMID: 35393447 PMCID: PMC8991199 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-09574-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2021] [Accepted: 03/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
S100 proteins are small, typically homodimeric, vertebrate-specific EF-hand proteins that establish Ca2+-dependent protein-protein interactions in the intra- and extracellular environment and are overexpressed in various pathologies. There are about 20 distinct human S100 proteins with numerous potential partner proteins. Here, we used a quantitative holdup assay to measure affinity profiles of most members of the S100 protein family against a library of chemically synthetized foldamers. The profiles allowed us to quantitatively map the binding promiscuity of each member towards the foldamer library. Since the library was designed to systematically contain most binary natural amino acid side chain combinations, the data also provide insight into the promiscuity of each S100 protein towards all potential naturally occurring S100 partners in the human proteome. Such information will be precious for future drug design to interfere with S100 related pathologies.

Abstract
Annexin A2 (ANXA2) is a member of the A subfamily of a multifunctional calcium dependent membrane phospholipid binding protein family. The mRNA expression of ANXA2 is consistent with ovary function and egg laying in chickens. In this study, six nucleotide polymorphisms in the key promoter region of chicken ANXA2 gene (-2861 bp to -1394 bp), i.e.,: g.-2337 indel (GT), g.-2255 C > T, g. -2248 A > G, g.-2188 A > G, g.-2169 G > A, g.-2160 A > C, were identified. Their distributions in populations of Xinyang Brown, Recessive White Rock, Wenchang and Wenshang Barred chickens were analyzed. In the Recessive White Rock chicken population, CAA, CAG and TGG were three major haplotypes. Association analysis indicated that the individuals with diplotype TGG/TGG laid more eggs at 32 weeks, and the individual with diplotype CAG/TGG laid at the earlier age. Luciferase activity assay showed that mutation from C to T at -2255 increased trascriptional activity of chicken ANXA2, which is consistent with its effect on egg laying traits.

Abstract
Simple Summary AHNAK2 is a relatively newly discovered protein. It can interact with many other proteins. This protein is increased in cells of variety of different cancers. AHNAK2 may play a vital role in cancer formation. AHNAK2 may have a role in early detection of cancer. This obscure potential of AHNAK2 is being studied. Abstract AHNAK2 is a protein discovered in 2004, with a strong association with oncogenesis in various epithelial cancers. It has a large 616 kDa tripartite structure and is thought to take part in the formation of large multi-protein complexes. High expression is found in clear cell renal carcinoma, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, uveal melanoma, and lung adenocarcinoma, with a relation to poor prognosis. Little work has been done in exploring the function and relation AHNAK2 has with cancer, with early studies showing promising potential as a future biomarker and therapeutic target.

Abstract
Dickkopf1 (DKK1) was originally identified as a secreted protein that antagonizes Wnt signaling. Although DKK1 is essential for the developmental process, its functions in postnatal and adult life are unclear. However, evidence is accumulating that DKK1 is involved in tumorigenesis in a manner unrelated to Wnt signaling. In addition, recent studies have revealed that DKK1 may control immune reactions, although the relationship of this to Wnt signaling is unknown. Other DKK family members, DKK2-4, are likely to have their own functions. Here, we review the possible novel functions of DKKs. We summarize the characteristics of receptors of DKKs and the signaling mechanisms through DKKs and their receptors, provide evidence showing that DKKs are involved in tumor aggressiveness independently of Wnt signaling, and emphasize promising cancer therapies targeting DKKs and receptors. Lastly, we discuss various physiological and pathological processes controlled by DKKs.

Abstract
S100 proteins are small, dimeric, Ca2+-binding proteins of considerable interest due to their associations with cancer and rheumatic and neurodegenerative diseases. They control the functions of numerous proteins by forming protein–protein complexes with them. Several of these complexes were found to display “fuzzy” properties. Examining these highly flexible interactions, however, is a difficult task, especially from a structural biology point of view. Here, we summarize the available in vitro techniques that can be deployed to obtain structural information about these dynamic complexes. We also review the current state of knowledge about the structures of S100 complexes, focusing on their often-asymmetric nature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND P53 overexpression has been shown to involve in mitochondria-mediated dapaminergic neuron cell death in Parkinson's disease. However, the exactly molecular mechanisms responsible for the p53-dependent intrinsic cell death in neurodegenerative conditions remain unclearly. Annexin A2 is a multifunctional protein that negatively regulates p53 expression. The purpose of this study was to explore the mechanism of p53 dependent dopaminergic cell death and implication of Annexin A2 in cellular apoptosis in 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+)-induced PC12 cells. METHODS The cell viability of neural PC12 cells was determined by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltet-razolium bromide assay. Flow cytometry was used to evaluate the apoptosis and mitochondrial transmembrane potential of neural PC12 cells. The expression of p53 and Annexin A2 was analyzed by western blot assay. RESULTS The present study showed that the exposure of PC12 cells to neurotoxin MPP+ increased the expression levels of p53 and the discharge of mitochondrial transmembrane potential. Notably, Annexin A2 degradation was also observed in this cellular model of Parkinson's disease, in a time and dose-dependent manner. This expressing change of Annexin A2 was in direct proportion to the loss of cell viability of PC12 cells, and this expression pattern was in inverse proportion to p53 levels in this cellular model of Parkinson's disease. CONCLUSION These results indicated that Annexin A2 degradation plays a crucial role the degeneration of dapaminergic cells of Parkinson's disease, and Annexin A2 downregulation-mediated the cell death is closely associated with mitochondrial dysfunction via p53-dependent pathway; thus provide a novel therapeutic target for Parkinson's disease treatment.

Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 utilizes a number of strategies to modulate viral and host mRNA translation. Here, we used ribosome profiling in SARS-CoV-2 infected model cell lines and primary airway cells grown at the air-liquid interface to gain a deeper understanding of the translationally regulated events in response to virus replication. We find that SARS-CoV-2 mRNAs dominate the cellular mRNA pool but are not more efficiently translated than cellular mRNAs. SARS-CoV-2 utilized a highly efficient ribosomal frameshifting strategy in comparison to HIV-1, suggesting utilization of distinct structural elements. In the highly permissive cell models, although SARS-CoV-2 infection induced the transcriptional upregulation of numerous chemokines, cytokines and interferon stimulated genes, many of these mRNAs were not translated efficiently. Impact of SARS-CoV-2 on host mRNA translation was more subtle in primary cells, with marked transcriptional and translational upregulation of inflammatory and innate immune responses and downregulation of processes involved in ciliated cell function. Together, these data reveal the key role of mRNA translation in SARS-CoV-2 replication and highlight unique mechanisms for therapeutic development.

Abstract
We previously showed that annexin A2 (Axna2) was transiently expressed at the embryo-uterine luminal epithelium interface during the window of implantation and was involved in mouse embryo implantation. At the same time, Axna2 was reported to be upregulated in human receptive endometrium, which was critical for embryo attachment as an intracellular molecule. Here, we identified Axna2 as a membrane-bound molecule on human endometrial epithelial cells and trophoblast cells, and the outer surface membrane-bound Axna2 was involved in human embryo attachment. In addition, physiological levels of estrogen and progesterone increased the expression of overall Axna2 as well as that in the extracellular surface membrane protein fraction in human endometrial cells. Furthermore, p11 (or S100A10, a member of the S100 EF-hand family protein, molecular weight 11 kDa) was involved in the translocation of Axna2 to the outer surface membrane of endometrial epithelial cells without affecting its overall expression. Finally, the surface relocation of Axna2 was also dependent on cell-cell contact and calcium binding. A better understanding of the function and regulation of Axna2 in human endometrium may help us to identify a potential therapeutic target for subfertile and infertile patients.

Abstract
Annexin A2 (ANXA2) is a multifunctional protein expressed in nearly all human tissues and cell types, playing a role in various signaling pathways. It is subjected to phosphorylation, but no specific protein phosphatase has been identified in its posttranslational regulation yet. Using pull-down assay followed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis we found that ANXA2 interacts with TIMAP (TGF-beta-inhibited membrane-associated protein) in pulmonary artery endothelial cells. TIMAP is highly expressed in endothelial cells, where it acts as a regulatory and targeting subunit of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1). TIMAP plays an important role in the regulation of the endothelial barrier maintenance through the dephosphorylation of its several substrate proteins. In the present work, phosphorylation of Ser25 side chain in ANXA2 by protein kinase C (PKC) was shown both in vivo and in vitro. Phosphorylation level of ANXA2 at Ser25 increased greatly by inhibition of PP1 and by depletion of its regulatory subunit, TIMAP, implying a role of this PP1 holoenzyme in the dephosphorylation of ANXA2. Immunofluorescence staining and subcellular fractionations revealed a diffuse subcellular localization for the endogenous ANXA2, but phospho-Ser25 ANXA2 was mainly detected in the membrane. ANXA2 depletion lowered the basal endothelial barrier and inhibited cell migration, but had no significant effect on cell proliferation or viability. ANXA2 depleted cells failed to respond to PMA treatment, indicating an intimately involvement of phospho-ANXA2 in PKC signaling. Moreover, phosphorylation of ANXA2 disrupted its interaction with S100A10 suggesting a phosphorylation dependent multiple regulatory role of ANXA2 in endothelial cells. Our results demonstrate the pivotal role of PKC-ANXA2-PP1 pathway in endothelial cell signaling, especially in barrier function and cell migration.

Abstract
Bleeding and thrombosis are well-known complications to hematological malignancies, and changes in fibrinolysis impact both these issues. In the present systematic review, we provide an overview and discussion of the current literature in regards to clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of altered fibrinolysis in patients suffering from hematological malignancies, beyond acute promyelocytic leukemia. We performed a systematic literature search employing the databases Pubmed, Embase, and Web of Science to identify original studies investigating fibrinolysis in hematological malignancies. Studies investigating fibrinolysis in acute promyelocytic leukemia or disseminated intravascular coagulation were excluded. We identified 32 studies fulfilling the inclusion criteria. A majority of the studies were published more than two decades ago, and none of the studies examined all available markers of fibrinolysis or used dynamic clot lysis assays. In acute leukemia L-asparaginase treatment induced a hypofibrinolytic state, and prior to chemotherapy there seemed to be little to no change in fibrinolysis. In studies examining fibrinolysis during chemotherapy results were ambiguous. Two studies examining multiple myeloma indicated hypofibrinolysis prior to chemotherapy, and in another plasma cell disease, amyloid light chain-amyloidosis, clear signs of hyperfibrinolysis were demonstrated. In myeloproliferative neoplasms, the studies reported signs of hypofibrinolysis, in line with the increased risk of thrombosis in this disease. Only one study regarding lymphoma was identified, which indicated no alterations in fibrinolysis. In conclusion, this systematic review demonstrated that only sparse, and mainly old, evidence exists on fibrinolysis in hematological malignancy. However, the published studies showed a tendency toward hypofibrinolysis in myeloproliferative disorders, an increased risk of hyperfibrinolysis, and bleeding in patients with AL-amyloidosis, whereas studies regarding acute leukemias were inconclusive except with regard to L-asparaginase treatment, which induced a hypofibrinolytic state.

Abstract
Rapid membrane repair is required to ensure cell survival after rupture of the plasma membrane. The annexin family of proteins is involved in plasma membrane repair (PMR) and is activated by the influx of Ca2+ from the extracellular medium at the site of injury. Annexins A1 and A2 (ANXA1 and ANXA2, respectively) are structurally similar and bind to negatively charged phosphatidylserine (PS) to induce membrane cross-linking and to promote fusion, which are both essential processes that occur during membrane repair. The degree of annexin accumulation and the annexin mobility at cross-linked membranes are important aspects of ANXA1 and ANXA2 function in repair. Here, we quantify ANXA1- and ANXA2-induced membrane cross-linking between giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs). Time-lapse measurements show that ANXA1 and ANXA2 can induce membrane cross-linking on a time scale compatible with PMR. Cross-linked membrane-membrane interfaces between the GUVs persist in time without fusion, and quantification of confocal microscopy images demonstrates that ANXA1, ANXA2, and, to a lesser extent, PS lipids accumulate at the double membrane interface. Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching shows that the annexins are fully immobilized at the double membrane interface, whereas PS lipids display a 75% decrease in mobility. In addition, the complete immobilization of annexins between two membranes indicates a high degree of network formation between annexins, suggesting that membrane cross-linking is mainly driven by protein-protein interactions.

[PMID: 33807671 PMCID: PMC7998613 DOI: 10.3390/cells10030567] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2021] [Revised: 03/02/2021] [Accepted: 03/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Prothymosin alpha (ProTα) and S100A13 are released from C6 glioma cells under serum-free conditions via membrane tethering mediated by Ca2+-dependent interactions between S100A13 and p40 synaptotagmin-1 (Syt-1), which is further associated with plasma membrane syntaxin-1 (Stx-1). The present study revealed that S100A13 interacted with annexin A2 (ANXA2) and this interaction was enhanced by Ca2+ and p40 Syt-1. Amlexanox (Amx) inhibited the association between S100A13 and ANXA2 in C6 glioma cells cultured under serum-free conditions in the in situ proximity ligation assay. In the absence of Amx, however, the serum-free stress results in a flop-out of ANXA2 through the membrane, without the extracellular release. The intracellular delivery of anti-ANXA2 antibody blocked the serum-free stress-induced cellular loss of ProTα, S100A13, and Syt-1. The stress-induced externalization of ANXA2 was inhibited by pretreatment with siRNA for P4-ATPase, ATP8A2, under serum-free conditions, which ablates membrane lipid asymmetry. The stress-induced ProTα release via Stx-1A, ANXA2 and ATP8A2 was also evidenced by the knock-down strategy in the experiments using oxygen glucose deprivation-treated cultured neurons. These findings suggest that starvation stress-induced release of ProTα, S100A13, and p40 Syt-1 from C6 glioma cells is mediated by the ANXA2-flop-out via energy crisis-dependent recovery of membrane lipid asymmetry.

Abstract
Breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) play a critical role in cancer recurrence and metastasis. Chemotherapy induces BCSC specification through increased expression of pluripotency factors, but how their expression is regulated is not fully understood. Here, we delineate a pathway controlled by hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) that epigenetically activates pluripotency factor gene transcription in response to chemotherapy. Paclitaxel induces HIF-1-dependent expression of S100A10, which forms a complex with ANXA2 that interacts with histone chaperone SPT6 and histone demethylase KDM6A. S100A10, ANXA2, SPT6, and KDM6A are recruited to OCT4 binding sites and KDM6A erases H3K27me3 chromatin marks, facilitating transcription of genes encoding the pluripotency factors NANOG, SOX2, and KLF4, which along with OCT4 are responsible for BCSC specification. Silencing of S100A10, ANXA2, SPT6, or KDM6A expression blocks chemotherapy-induced enrichment of BCSCs, impairs tumor initiation, and increases time to tumor recurrence after chemotherapy is discontinued. Pharmacological inhibition of KDM6A also impairs chemotherapy-induced BCSC enrichment. These results suggest that targeting HIF-1/S100A10-dependent and KDM6A-mediated epigenetic activation of pluripotency factor gene expression in combination with chemotherapy may block BCSC enrichment and improve clinical outcome.

Role of calcineurin biosignaling in cell secretion and the possible regulatory mechanisms. Saudi J Biol Sci 2021; 28:116-124.

Abstract
Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and calcium ions (Ca2+) are two chemical molecules that play a central role in the stimulus-dependent secretion processes within cells. Ca2+ acts as the basal signaling molecule responsible to initiate cell secretion. cAMP primarily acts as an intracellular second messenger in a myriad of cellular processes by activating cAMP-dependent protein kinases through association with such kinases in order to mediate post-translational phosphorylation of those protein targets. Put succinctly, both Ca2+ and cAMP act by associating or activating other proteins to ensure successful secretion. Calcineurin is one such protein regulated by Ca2+; its action depends on the intracellular levels of Ca2+. Being a phosphatase, calcineurin dephosphorylate and other proteins, as is the case with most other phosphatases, such as protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), PP2C, and protein phosphatase-1 (PP1), will likely be activated by phosphorylation. Via this process, calcineurin is able to affect different intracellular signaling with clinical importance, some of which has been the basis for development of different calcineurin inhibitors. In this review, the cAMP-dependent calcineurin bio-signaling, protein-protein interactions and their physiological implications as well as regulatory signaling within the context of cellular secretion are explored.

Abstract
PURPOSE The mechanisms underlying HBV intrauterine transmission remain unknown. In this study, we explored the mechanism of HBV intrauterine transmission by iTRAQ proteomics analysis. METHODS iTRAQ technology was applied to perform comparative proteomics studies on six HBV+/+ neonates and six HBV+/- neonates whose mothers and fathers were HBsAg positive and paternal HBsAg negative, respectively. The data obtained from the mass spectrometer were analyzed using MASCOT ( https://matrixscience.com ) to qualitatively and quantitatively compare the differentially expressed proteins in the two groups. Gene Ontology and KEGG pathway analyses were performed to analyze the differentially expressed proteins. The expressions of HBV intrauterine transmission-related proteins in serum samples and corresponding placental tissues were further verified by immunohistochemistry and Western Blot. Then, the human trophoblast cell line (Swan71) infected with HBV was used to analyze the potential mechanisms of HBV intrauterine transmission under the mediation of differential proteins. RESULTS A total of 35 differentially expressed proteins, including 17 up-regulated proteins and 18 down-regulated proteins, were identified by comparing serum protein expression levels in HBV+/+ and HBV+/- neonates. The differentially expressed proteins were mainly related to RAGE receptor binding, NF-kappa B transcription factor activity, innate immune response, defense response to bacterium, and the signaling pathway in pathogenic microorganism infection. The expressions of S100A8/9/12 in HBV+/+ maternal placenta tissue were significantly increased. The expressions of S100A8/9/12 proteins in Swan71 cells were significantly increased after HBV infection. CONCLUSION High expression of S100 proteins may be associated with the intrauterine-transplacental transmission of HBV.

Abstract
Magnesium-based biomaterials belong to the third generation of biomaterials that are also bioactive. These smart materials combine bioactivity and biodegradability, and elicit specific cellular responses at the molecular level. In fact, osteoinductive properties have been observed in mesenchymal stem cells in the presence of Magnesium. The mechanistic understanding of the physiological effects however, remains a difficult task as Mg is involved in a multitude of biological reactions. The study of protein interactions may shed light on the molecular processes in Mg-stimulated cells, therefore, suitable data mining tools are required to analyze the large amount data generated via proteomics. Protein compositions over time between two conditions (human mesenchymal stem cells cultured with and without Mg degradation products) were analyzed using Vester's Sensitivity Model. Proteins whose dynamics significantly change from one setup to the other were classified into four categories: passive, active, critical, and buffering according to their regulatory activity. In this work, we demonstrated the use of Vester's Sensitivity Model as an appropriate data mining tool. Protein network analyses highlighted the primary role of Mg-based implant degradation on cell metabolism without deleterious effect on cell viability. Furthermore, key proteins involved in calcium-dependant cellular activities were emphasized leading to further studies.

Abstract
Intracerebral microhemorrhages (CMHs) are small foci of hemorrhages in the cerebrum. Acute infections induced by some intracellular pathogens, including rickettsia, can result in CMHs. Annexin a2 (ANXA2) has been documented to play a functional role during intracellular bacterial adhesion. Here we report that ANXA2-knockout (KO) mice are more susceptible to CMHs in response to rickettsia and Ebola virus infections, suggesting an essential role of ANXA2 in protecting vascular integrity during these intracellular pathogen infections. Proteomic analysis via mass spectrometry of whole brain lysates and brain-derived endosomes from ANXA2-KO and wild-type (WT) mice post-infection with R. australis revealed that a variety of significant proteins were differentially expressed, and the follow-up function enrichment analysis had identified several relevant cell-cell junction functions. Immunohistology study confirmed that both infected WT and infected ANXA2-KO mice were subjected to adherens junctional protein (VE-cadherin) damages. However, key blood-brain barrier (BBB) components, tight junctional proteins ZO-1 and occludin, were disorganized in the brains from R. australis-infected ANXA2-KO mice, but not those of infected WT mice. Similar ANXA2-KO dependent CMHs and fragments of ZO-1 and occludin were also observed in Ebola virus-infected ANXA2-KO mice, but not found in infected WT mice. Overall, our study revealed a novel role of ANXA2 in the formation of CMHs during R. australis and Ebola virus infections; and the underlying mechanism is relevant to the role of ANXA2-regulated tight junctions and its role in stabilizing the BBB in these deadly infections.

Abstract
p11 (S100A10, annexin II light chain, calpactin I light chain) is a multifunctional protein that forms a heterotetrameric complex with Annexin A2, particularly at cell membranes. p11, alone or together with Annexin A2, interacts with several ion channels and receptors and regulates their cellular localization and function. Altered levels of p11 are implicated in the pathophysiology of several forms of cancer, psychiatric disorders, and neurodegeneration. Via interactions with ion channels and receptors, p11 modulates therapeutic actions of drugs targeting brain disorders. By serving as a plasminogen receptor, p11 plays an important role in plasmin generation, fibrinolysis, angiogenesis, tumor progression, and metastasis. Here, we review mechanisms whereby p11 regulates functions of ion channels and receptors in health and disease states.

Abstract
AIMS Annexin A2 (ANXA2) is closely associated with tumor malignancy and its N-terminus includes a vital domain for its function. The aims are to explore the correlation between the sites (Tyr23, Ser1, Ser11 and Ser25) in the domain and its roles. MAIN METHODS We re-expressed ANXA2 with mutated sites in ANXA2-deleted human colonic adenocarcinoma cell line caco2 (ANXA2-/-caco2). A series of analyses were used to determine the correlation of each site with ANXA2 activation, cell malignancy enhancement and motility-associated microstructural development. Bioinformatics and luciferase reporter assays were employed to validate ANXA2-targeted miRNAs. KEY FINDINGS The in vitro results showed that all single and multiple mutations of the ANXA2 N-terminal sites inhibited ANXA2 phosphorylation at different levels and subsequently inhibited the proliferation, motility, and polymerization of F-actin and β-tubulin in caco2 cells. Motility-associated microstructures were significantly remodeled when these sites were mutated. The forced expression of miR-206 significantly suppressed the proliferation, motility and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of caco2 cells. The in vivo results showed that all the ANXA2 N-terminal site mutations and forced expression of miR-206 significantly inhibited tumor growth. Overall, this study demonstrated that the sites of the ANXA2 N-terminus, especially Tyr23, play crucial roles in maintaining the high malignancy of colonic adenocarcinoma. Furthermore, miR-206 targets ANXA2 and plays a role as a cancer suppressor in colonic adenocarcinoma. SIGNIFICANCE Our study provided evidence that further elucidates the molecular mechanism of ANXA2 and its roles in colonic adenocarcinoma and suggested potential targets of ANXA2 for colonic adenocarcinoma therapy by using miR-206 as a novel strategy.

Abstract
The calcium-binding, vertebrate-specific S100 protein family consists of 20 paralogs in humans (referred as the S100ome), with several clinically important members. To explore their protein-protein interactions (PPIs) quantitatively, we have chosen an unbiased, high-throughput, competitive fluorescence polarization (FP) assay that revealed a partial functional redundancy when the complete S100ome (n = 20) was tested against numerous model partners (n = 13). Based on their specificity, the S100ome can be grouped into two distinct classes: promiscuous and orphan. In the first group, members bound to several ligands (> 4-5) with comparable high affinity, while in the second one, the paralogs bound only one partner weakly, or no ligand was identified. Our results demonstrate that FP assays are highly suitable for quantitative interaction profiling of selected protein families. Moreover, we provide evidence that PPI-based phenotypic characterization can complement or even exceed the information obtained from the sequence-based phylogenetic analysis of the S100ome, an evolutionary young protein family.

Abstract
The S100 family proteins possess a variety of intracellular and extracellular functions. They interact with multiple receptors and signal transducers to regulate pathways that govern inflammation, cell differentiation, proliferation, energy metabolism, apoptosis, calcium homeostasis, cell cytoskeleton and microbial resistance. S100 proteins are also emerging as novel diagnostic markers for identifying and monitoring various diseases. Strategies aimed at targeting S100-mediated signaling pathways hold a great potential in developing novel therapeutics for multiple diseases. In this chapter, we aim to summarize the current knowledge about the role of S100 family proteins in health and disease with a major focus on their role in inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
Background Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the leading cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs), and fimbrial tip adhesins, play important roles in UPEC colonization. Few fimbrial tip adhesins and their receptors on host cells, which have the potential to be the therapeutic targets, have been identified. Methods the UPEC wild-type strain CFT073, ΔyadC and the complemented strain were used to perform assays in vitro and in vivo. The effects of D-xylose targeting YadC on UPEC colonization were evaluated. A YadC receptor was identified by far-western blotting, LC-MS/MS and co-immunoprecipitation. The effects of compounds targeting the receptor on UPEC colonization were tested. Findings YadC was investigated for its mediation of UPEC adhesion and invasion to bladder epithelial cells in vitro; and its promotion of UPEC colonization in bladder in vivo. D-xylose, targeting YadC, showed prophylactic and therapeutic effects on UPEC colonization. Annexin A2 (ANXA2) was identified as a YadC receptor, involved in UPEC infection. ANXA2 inhibitors attenuated UPEC infections. The yadC gene was widely present in UPEC clinical isolates and phylogenetic analysis of yadC was performed. Interpretation YadC and its receptor ANXA2 play important roles in UPEC colonization in bladder, leading to novel treatment strategies targeting YadC or ANXA2 for acute UTIs.

[PMID: 31253864 PMCID: PMC6913097 DOI: 10.1038/s41374-019-0284-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2019] [Revised: 05/08/2019] [Accepted: 05/20/2019] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Understanding bacterial adhesion is challenging and critical to our understanding of the initial stages of the pathogenesis of endovascular bacterial infections. The vascular endothelial cell (EC) is the main target of Rickettsia, an obligately intracellular bacterium that causes serious systemic disease in humans and animals. But the mechanism(s) underlying bacterial adherence to ECs under shear stress from flowing blood prior to activation are unknown for any bacteria. Although host surface annexin a2 (ANXA2) has been identified to participate in efficient bacterial invasion of epithelial cells, direct evidence is lacking in the field of bacterial infections of ECs. In the present study, we employ a novel, anatomically based, in vivo quantitative bacterial-adhesion-to-vascular-EC system, combined with atomic force microscopy (AFM), to examine the role of endothelial luminal surface ANXA2 during rickettsial adherence to ECs. We also examined whether ANXA2 antibody affected binding of Staphylococcus aureus to ECs. We found that deletion of ANXA2 impeded rickettsial attachment to the ECs in vitro and blocked rickettsial adherence to the blood vessel luminal surface in vivo. The AFM studies established that EC surface ANXA2 acts as an adherence receptor for rickettsiae, and that rickettsial adhesin OmpB is the associated bacterial ligand. Furthermore, pretreatment of ECs with anti-ANXA2 antibody reduced EC surface-associated S. aureus. We conclude that the endothelial surface ANXA2 plays an important role in initiating pathogen-host interactions, ultimately leading to bacterial anchoring on the vascular luminal surface.

Abstract
Annexins are a superfamily of calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins that are implicated in a wide range of biological processes. The annexin superfamily comprises 13 members in humans (ANXAs), the majority of which are frequently dysregulated in cancer. However, the expression patterns and prognostic values of ANXAs in liver cancer are currently largely unknown. The present study aimed to analyze the expression levels of ANXAs and survival data in patients with liver cancer from the Oncomine, GEPIA, Kaplan-Meier plotter and cBioPortal for Cancer Genomics databases. The results demonstrated that ANXA1, A2, A3, A4 and A5 were upregulated, whereas ANXA10 was downregulated in liver cancer compared with normal liver tissues. The expression of ANXA10 was associated with pathological stage. High expression levels of ANXA2 and A5 were significantly associated with poor overall survival (OS) rate whereas ANXA7 and A10 were associated with increased OS. The prognostic values of ANXAs in liver cancer were determined based on sex and clinical stage, which revealed that ANXA2, A5, A7 and A10 were associated with OS in male, but not in female patients. In addition, the potential biological functions of ANXAs were identified by Gene Ontology functional annotation and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes Genomes pathway analysis; the results demonstrated that ANXAs may serve a role in liver cancer through the neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction pathway. In conclusion, the results of the present study suggested that ANXA1, A2, A3, A4, A5 and A10 may be potential therapeutic targets for liver cancer treatment, and that ANXA2, A5, A7 and A10 may be potential prognostic biomarkers of liver cancer.

LncRNA SNHG14 potentiates pancreatic cancer progression via modulation of annexin A2 expression by acting as a competing endogenous RNA for miR-613. J Cell Mol Med 2019; 23:7222-7232. [PMID: 31513352 PMCID: PMC6815841 DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.14467] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2019] [Revised: 04/05/2019] [Accepted: 04/26/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to determine long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) small nucleolar RNA host gene 14 (SNHG14) expression in pancreatic cancer and to explore the potential molecular actions of SNHG14 in mediating pancreatic cancer progression. Gene expression was detected by quantitative real-time PCR. Cell proliferation, growth and invasion were detected by respective CCK-8, colony formation, and transwell invasion assays. Protein levels were measured by Western blotting. Cell apoptosis and caspase-3 activity were detected by flow cytometry and caspase-3 activity assay. The link between miR-613 and its targets was evaluated by luciferase reporter assay. In vivo tumour growth was evaluated using a xenograft model of nude mice. SNHG14 expression was up-regulated in cancerous tissues from pancreatic cancer patients. High expression of SNHG14 was associated with poor tumour differentiation, advanced TNM stage and nodal metastasis. SNHG14 overexpression enhanced cell proliferative, growth and invasive abilities, and suppressed apoptotic rates and caspase-3 activity in pancreatic cancer cells, while SNHG14 knockdown exerted opposite effects. Mechanistic studies revealed that miR-613 was targeted by SNHG14, and Annexin A2 (ANXA2) was targeted and inversely regulated by miR-613 in pancreatic cancer cells. In vivo studies showed that SNHG14 knockdown attenuated tumour growth. MiR-613 was down-regulated and ANXA2 was up-regulated in the pancreatic cancer tissues, and SNHG14 expression levels were inversely correlated with miR-613 expression levels and positively correlated with the ANXA2 mRNA expression levels. Collectively, our results suggest that SNHG14 potentiates pancreatic cancer progression through modulation of annexin A2 expression via acting as a competing endogenous RNA for miR-613.

Abstract
Here we review the latest pre-clinical and clinical developments for treatment of ovarian cancer, presented at the American Association of Cancer Research/Rivkin Center Ovarian Cancer Research Symposium held at the University of Washington in September 2018. Abstracts and presentations pertaining to the 'Novel Therapeutics' session were reviewed and are summarized here. The session featured a keynote presentation from Dr Ursula Matulonis, who summarized the current state of the art of treatment of ovarian cancer, including recent clinical trials incorporating the use of novel agents, including poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, other DNA-damaging agents, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor inhibitors, mirvetuximab soravtansine, and immune checkpoint blockade. Dr Jung-Min Lee then summarized the rationale and the results of early studies for targeting cell cycle checkpoint kinases for anti-cancer therapy. Eight submissions were selected for oral presentations, and 36 abstracts were presented as posters. The topics covered a range of clinical and pre-clinical strategies and biomarkers, including immunotherapy, mechanisms of chemotherapy, and PARP inhibitor resistance, DNA-damaging agents, and other novel therapeutic strategies. Key studies have highlighted that resistance to chemotherapy and PARP inhibitors remain a major challenge in therapy of ovarian cancer. Cancer stem cells represent an important mechanism of chemoresistance and strategies to target these cells may be a pathway to prevention of ovarian cancer relapse. Advancement of novel therapeutics targeting DNA damage, cell metabolism, and endoplasmic reticulum present some of the novel strategies in the pipeline. Emerging compelling pre-clinical data with novel antibody-drug conjugates targeting various surface receptors in ovarian cancer alone and in combination with immune checkpoint blockade generate a strong enthusiasm for rapid translation of these strategies to clinic.

Abstract
The nucleoprotein AHNAK (AHNAK) is a large scaffold protein that is involved in several biological processes. Previous studies have suggested a possible relation between AHNAK and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). However, the role of AHNAK in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has not been unveiled. The present study focuses on identifying the potential value of the biological effects of AHNAK in PDAC, which is one of the most lethal malignancies. Bioinformatic analysis was carried for driver gene prediction, and we proved that AHNAK was a driver gene of pancreatic adenocarcinoma and a predictor of poor outcomes of PDAC by clinical characteristics analysis and in vitro experiments. High AHNAK expression was associated with short disease-free survival and poor overall survival. In vitro assays showed that AHNAK was associated with cell proliferation and migration, and a positive relation was observed between AHNAK and the EMT. In conclusion, AHNAK is a crucial biomarker that may promote cellular proliferation and migration and thus impact PDAC outcomes via the EMT, which suggests that AHANK might be a potential target for PDAC.

Abstract
Annexin A2 is a membrane scaffolding and binding protein, which mediated various cellular events. Its functions are generally affected by cellular localization. In the cytoplasm, they interacted with different phospholipid membranes in Ca2+ -dependent manner and play vital roles including actin binding, remodeling and dynamics, cytoskeletal rearrangement, and lipid-raft microdomain formation. However, upon cell exposure to certain stimuli, annexin A2 translocates to the external leaflets of the plasma membrane where annexin A2 was recently reported to serve as a virus receptor, play an important role in the formation of virus replication complex, or implicated in virus assembly and budding. Here, we review some of annexin A2 roles in virus infections and the potentiality of targeting annexin A2 in the design of novel and promising antivirus agent that may have a broader consequence in virus therapy.

Abstract
Plasmin-mediated fibrinolysis at the surface of vascular endothelial cells (SVEC) plays a key role in maintaining vascular hemostasis, in which the cAMP pathway participates. After externalization to the SVEC, annexin A2 (ANXA2) serves as a platform for conversion of plasminogen to plasmin. Here we describe a regulatory role of the exchange protein directly activated by cAMP (EPAC) in ANXA2 externalization and vascular fibrinolysis. Knockout of EPAC1 in mice results in a decreased ANXA2 expression on the SVEC associated with increased fibrin deposition and fibrinolytic dysfunction. Reduced levels of EPAC1 are also found in endocardial tissues beneath atrial mural thrombi in patients. Notably, administration of recombinant ANXA2 ameliorates fibrinolytic dysfunction in the EPAC1-null mice. Mechanistically, EPAC1 regulates the SVEC plasminogen conversion depended on ANXA2. EPAC1 promotes tyrosine-23 phosphorylation of ANXA2, a prerequisite for its recruitment to the SVEC. Our data thus reveal a novel regulatory role for EPAC1 in vascular fibrinolysis.

Abstract
Annexin proteins function as Ca2+-dependent regulators of membrane trafficking and repair that may also modulate membrane curvature. Here, using high-resolution confocal imaging, we report that the intestine-specific annexin A13 (ANX A13) localizes to the tips of intestinal microvilli and determined the crystal structure of the ANX A13a isoform to 2.6 Å resolution. The structure revealed that the N terminus exhibits an alternative fold that converts the first two helices and the associated helix-loop-helix motif into a continuous α-helix, as stabilized by a domain-swapped dimer. We also found that the dimer is present in solution and partially occludes the membrane-binding surfaces of annexin, suggesting that dimerization may function as a means for regulating membrane binding. Accordingly, as revealed by in vitro binding and cellular localization assays, ANX A13a variants that favor a monomeric state exhibited increased membrane association relative to variants that favor the dimeric form. Together, our findings support a mechanism for how the association of the ANX A13a isoform with the membrane is regulated.

Abstract
Neutrophils are the most abundant type of white blood cell in most mammals including humans. The primary role of these cells is host defense against microbes and clearance of tissue debris in order to facilitate wound healing and tissue regeneration. The recruitment of neutrophils from blood into tissues is a key step in this process and is mediated by numerous different chemoattractants. The neutrophil migratory response is essential for host defense and survival, but excessive tissue accumulation of neutrophils is observed in many inflammatory disorders and strongly correlates with disease pathology. The vitamin D binding protein (DBP) is a circulating multifunctional plasma protein that can significantly enhance the chemotactic activity of neutrophil chemoattractants both in vitro and in vivo. Recent in vivo studies using DBP deficient mice showed that DBP plays a larger and more central role during inflammation since it induces selective recruitment of neutrophils, and this cofactor function is not restricted to C5a, as prior in vitro studies indicated, but can enhance chemotaxis to many chemoattractants. DBP also is an extracellular scavenger for actin released from damaged/dead cells and formation of DBP-actin complexes is an immediate host response to tissue injury. Recent in vitro evidence indicates that DBP bound to G-actin, and not free DBP, functions as an indirect but essential cofactor for neutrophil migration. DBP-actin complexes always will be formed regardless of what initiated an inflammation, since release of actin from damaged cells is a common feature in all types of injury and DBP is abundant and ubiquitous in all extracellular fluids. Indeed, these complexes have been detected in blood and tissue fluids from both humans and experimental animals following various forms of injury. The published data strongly supports the premise that DBP-actin complexes are the functional neutrophil chemotactic cofactor that enhances neutrophil chemotaxis in vitro and augments neutrophilic inflammation in vivo. This review will assess the fundamental role of DBP in neutrophilic inflammation and injury.

Abstract
S100A10, which is also known as p11, is located in the plasma membrane and forms a heterotetramer with annexin A2. The heterotetramer, comprising of two subunits of annexin A2 and S100A10, activates the plasminogen activation pathway, which is involved in cellular repair of normal tissues. Increased expression of annexin A2 and S100A10 in cancer cells leads to increased levels of plasmin—which promotes the degradation of the extracellular matrix—increased angiogenesis, and the invasion of the surrounding organs. Although many studies have investigated the functional role of annexin A2 in cancer cells, including ovarian cancer, S100A10 has been less studied. We recently demonstrated that high stromal annexin A2 and high cytoplasmic S100A10 expression is associated with a 3.4-fold increased risk of progression and 7.9-fold risk of death in ovarian cancer patients. Other studies have linked S100A10 with multidrug resistance in ovarian cancer; however, no functional studies to date have been performed in ovarian cancer cells. This article reviews the current understanding of S100A10 function in cancer with a particular focus on ovarian cancer.
