Chang J, Yan S, Geng Z, Wang Z. Inhibition of splicing factors SF3A3 and SRSF5 contributes to As 3+/Se 4+ combination-mediated proliferation suppression and apoptosis induction in acute promyelocytic leukemia cells. Arch Biochem Biophys 2023; 743:109677. [PMID: 37356608 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2023.109677] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2023] [Revised: 05/28/2023] [Accepted: 06/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/27/2023]
Abstract
The low-dose combination of Arsenite (As3+) and selenite (Se4+) has the advantages of lower biological toxicity and better curative effects for acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) therapy. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, based on the fact that the combination of 2 μM A3+ plus 4 μM Se4+ possessed a stronger anti-leukemic effect on APL cell line NB4 as compared with each individual, we employed iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomics to identify a total of 58 proteins that were differentially expressed after treatment with As3+/Se4+ combination rather than As3+ or Se4+ alone, the majority of which were involved in spliceosome pathway. Among them, eight proteins stood out by virtue of their splicing function and significant changes. They were validated as being decreased in mRNA and protein levels under As3+/Se4+ combination treatment. Further functional studies showed that only knockdown of two splicing factors, SF3A3 and SRSF5, suppressed the growth of NB4 cells. The reduction of SF3A3 was found to cause G1/S cell cycle arrest, which resulted in proliferation inhibition. Moreover, SRSF5 downregulation induced cell apoptosis through the activation of caspase-3. Taken together, these findings indicate that SF3A3 and SRSF5 function as pro-leukemic factors and can be potential novel therapeutic targets for APL.

Abstract
E6AP (E6 associated protein) is a HECT domain containing protein having dual E3 ligase and ERα coactivation activity in breast cancer cells. Although E6AP is known to possess antitumorigenic activity, the underlying molecular mechanism is poorly understood. In the present study, we applied nano-LC based proteomics approach to identify E6AP-interacting proteins where we performed GST-pull down using GST-E6AP from whole cell extracts of MCF7 cells, resolved the differentially interacting proteins on 1D-SDS-PAGE, excised the gel bands that were trypsin digested followed by fractionation and spotting on MALDI-TOF/TOF plate through Nano-LC MALDI spotter. Subsequently, fractionated and spotted peptides were identified using MALDI-TOF/TOF. We identified several E6AP interacting proteins including previously reported such as HSP70 and new ones such as Enolase-1. We further confirmed that E6AP and Enolase1 interacted and colocalized more in the cytoplasmic periphery in breast cancer cells and further demonstrated that E6AP also targeted ENO1 for ubiquitin-mediated degradation in these cells.

Abstract
Alport syndrome (AS) is an inherited progressive disease caused by mutations in genes encoding for the α3, α4 and α5 chains, which are an essential component of type IV collagen and are required for formation of the glomerular basement membrane. However, the underlying etiology of AS remains largely unknown, and the aim of the present study was to examine the genetic mechanisms in AS. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) were generated from renal tubular cells. The Illumina HiSeq™ 2000 system and iTRAQ‑coupled 2D liquid chromatography‑tandem mass spectrometry were used to generate the sequences of microRNAs (miRNAs), transcripts and proteins from AS‑iPSCs. Integration of miRNA, transcript and protein expression data was used to construct regulatory networks and identify specific miRNA targets amongst the transcripts and proteins. Relative quantitative proteomics using iTRAQ technology revealed 383 differentially abundant proteins, and high‑throughput sequencing identified 155 differentially expressed miRNAs and 1,168 differentially expressed transcripts. Potential miRNA targets were predicted using miRanda, TargetScan and Pictar. All target proteins and transcripts were subjected to network analysis with miRNAs. Gene ontology analysis of the miRNAs and their targets revealed functional information on the iPSCs, including biological process and cell signaling. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways analysis revealed that the transcripts and proteins were primarily enriched in metabolic and cell adhesion molecule pathways. In addition, the network maps identified hsa‑miRNA (miR)‑4775 as a prominent miRNA that was associated with a number of targets. Similarly, the prominent ELV‑like protein 1‑A and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)‑associated transcripts were identified. Reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis was used to confirm the upregulation of hsa‑miR‑4775 and EGFR. The integrated approach used in the present study provided a comprehensive molecular characterization of AS. The results may also further understanding of the genetic pathogenesis of AS and facilitate the identification of candidate biomarkers for AS.

Quantitative proteomic profiling of renal tissue in human chronic rejection biopsy samples after renal transplantation. Transplant Proc 2015; 47:323-31.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic rejection (CR) is the leading cause of late renal transplant failure and is characterized by a relatively slow but progressive loss of renal function in combination with proteinuria and hypertension >3 months after transplantation. To identify and quantify the protein profiles in renal tissues of CR patients, we used isotope tagging for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ)-based proteomic technology to perform global protein expression analyses in CR patients and control subjects. MATERIALS AND METHODS After protein extraction, quantitation, and digestion, samples were labeled with iTRAQ reagents and then separated by strong cation exchange and high-performance liquid chromatography. The fractions were further analyzed by tandem mass spectrometry. ProteinPilot version 4.0 software and the Swiss-Prot human database were applied for statistical analysis and database searching, respectively. Differentially expressed proteins were subjected to bioinformatic analysis by using the Gene Ontology database and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes database to further characterize their potential functional roles and related pathways in CR. RESULTS In total, 1857 distinct proteins (confidence >95%, ρ < .05) were identified and quantified. Using a strict cutoff value of 1.5-fold for expressed variation, 87 proteins showed significant differences in expression between the CR and control groups; 53 were up-regulated and 34 were down-regulated. The differentially expressed proteins were mainly involved in protein binding, structural molecule activity, and extracellular matrix structural constituent. Several proteins, such as the alpha-1 chain of collagen type IV and integrin alpha-1, may play roles in the pathogenesis of CR and were implicated in the extracellular matrix-receptor interaction pathway. CONCLUSIONS This study is the first to focus on iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomic characterization of renal tissue in CR. These insights may broaden our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying CR and provide potential biomarker candidates for future diagnostics.

Abstract
Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative disorder arising in the haemopoietic stem cell (HSC) compartment. This disease is characterised by a reciprocal t(9;22) chromosomal translocation, resulting in the formation of the Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome containing the BCR-ABL1 gene. As such, diagnosis and monitoring of disease involves detection of BCR-ABL1. It is the BCR-ABL1 protein, in particular its constitutively active tyrosine kinase activity, that forges the pathogenesis of CML. This aberrant kinase signalling activates downstream targets that reprogram the cell to cause uncontrolled proliferation and results in myeloid hyperplasia and 'indolent' symptoms of chronic phase (CP) CML. Without successful intervention, the disease will progress into blast crisis (BC), resembling an acute leukaemia. This advanced disease stage takes on an aggressive phenotype and is almost always fatal. The cell biology of CML is also centred on BCR-ABL1. The presence of BCR-ABL1 can explain virtually all the cellular features of the leukaemia (enhanced cell growth, inhibition of apoptosis, altered cell adhesion, growth factor independence, impaired genomic surveillance and differentiation). This article provides an overview of the clinical and cell biology of CML, and highlights key findings and unanswered questions essential for understanding this disease.

Abstract
Recent developments in mass spectrometry have introduced clinical proteomics to the forefront of diseases diagnosis, offering reliable, robust and efficient analytical method for biomarker discovery and monitoring. MALDI-TOF is a powerful tool for surveying proteins and peptides comprising the realm for clinical analysis. MALDI-TOF has the potential to revolutionize cancer diagnostics by facilitating biomarker discovery, enabling tissue imaging and quantifying biomarker levels. Healthy (control) and cancerous tissues can be analyzed on the basis of mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF) imaging to identify cancer-specific changes that may prove to be clinically useful. We review MALDI-TOF profiling techniques as tools for detection of cancer biomarkers in various cancers. We mainly discuss recent advances including period from 2011 to 2013.
