Abstract
The human family of Potassium (K+) Channel Tetramerization Domain (KCTD) proteins counts 25 members, and a significant number of them are still only partially characterized. While some of the KCTDs have been linked to neurological disorders or obesity, a growing tally of KCTDs are being associated with cancer hallmarks or involved in the modulation of specific oncogenic pathways. Indeed, the potential relevance of the variegate KCTD family in cancer warrants an updated picture of the current knowledge and highlights the need for further research on KCTD members as either putative therapeutic targets, or diagnostic/prognostic markers. Homology between family members, capability to participate in ubiquitination and degradation of different protein targets, ability to heterodimerize between members, role played in the main signalling pathways involved in development and cancer, are all factors that need to be considered in the search for new key players in tumorigenesis. In this review we summarize the recent published evidence on KCTD members' involvement in cancer. Furthermore, by integrating this information with data extrapolated from public databases that suggest new potential associations with cancers, we hypothesize that the number of KCTD family members involved in tumorigenesis (either as positive or negative modulator) may be bigger than so far demonstrated.

Abstract
It is known that Porphyromonas gingivalis/lipopolysaccharide (P. gingivalis/LPS) induces inflammatory diseases via TNF-α-mediated transcription factors. Our recent data shows that TNFAIP1 (TNF-α induced protein 1) is related to TNF-α. However, little is known regarding how TNFAIP1 is involved in the TNF-α-dependent pathway. We therefore focused on the biological function of TNFAIP1 and examined how TNFAIP1 mediates TNF-α and other genes. We found that TNF-α was upregulated and peaks before the upregulation of apoptotic genes such as Bad, Bcl-x, Caspase 3, Catalase, Claspin, Cytochromic, Ho-1/HMOX1/HSP32, or MCI-1 in our time course with TNFAIP1-treated cells. Our findings here may serve as the foundation for future studies linking regulation of TNFAIP1 and intervention of inflammatory disease.

Abstract
Macrophages are important cells of innate immunity with specialized capacity for recognition and elimination of pathogens and presentation of antigens to lymphocytes for adaptive immunity. Macrophages become activated upon exposure to pro-inflammatory cytokines and pathogenic stimuli. Classical activation of macrophages with interferon-γ (IFNγ) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) triggers a wide range of signaling events and morphological changes to induce the immune response. Our previous microtubule (MT) proteomic work revealed that the stathmin association with MTs is considerably reduced in activated macrophages, which contain significantly more stabilized MTs. Here, we show that there is a global decrease in stathmin levels, an MT catastrophe protein, in activated macrophages using both immunoblotting and immunofluorescent microscopy. This is an LPS-specific response that induces proteasome-mediated degradation of stathmin. We explored the functions of stathmin down-regulation in activated macrophages by generating a stable cell line overexpressing stathmin-GFP. We show that stathmin-GFP overexpression impacts MT stability, impairs cell spreading, and reduces activation-associated phenotypes. Furthermore, overexpressing stathmin reduces complement receptor 3-mediated phagocytosis and cellular activation, implicating a pivotal inhibitory role for stathmin in classically activated macrophages.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor‑induced protein 1 (Tnfaip1), also known as B12, has been previously identified as a tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)-inducible protein and is involved in the cytokinesis signaling pathway, DNA synthesis, innate immunity, cell apoptosis, Alzheimer's disease (AD) and type 2 diabetic nephropathy. However, little is known regarding the expression of Tnfaip1 in various tissues or its accurate role in these physiological functions. The focus of this study was on Tnfaip1 expression in different tissues, with a high expression in mouse hippocampus being identified. The age- and gender‑related expression of Tnfaip1 in hippocampus was also investigated. The distribution of Tnfaip1 was mapped using fluorescent immunostaining. Although immunoactivity was found in the CA1, CA3 and DG subregions of the hippocampus in E17.5 and P6 mice, strong staining was only detected in the CA3 subregion in adult mice. These data suggested that Tnfaip1 expression in hippocampus may be regulated by estrogen. Further study showed that the expression of Tnfaip1 in the hippocampus was significantly increased in ovariecto-mized mice compared to Sham mice. In cultured primary hippocampal cells, Tnfaip1 showed different expression levels in different treatments of estrogen or estrogen receptor antagonists. Additional experiments demonstrated the existence of a binding site of ERβ in the Tnfaip1 promoter region, and that ERβ was able to upregulate Tnfaip1 expression. Our study identified a new regulatory factor and a primary regulatory mechanism of Tnfaip1 expression in hippocampus. Since both hippocampus and estrogen are crucial in AD, the results also showed a potential association between Tnfaip1 and hippocampal-related diseases, such as AD, which may be affected by the estrogen level.

Abstract
The broad-complex, tramtrack, and bric-a-brac/poxvirus and zinc finger domain-containing protein tumor necrosis factor, alpha-induced protein 1 (TNFAIP1) was first identified as a gene whose expression can be induced by the tumor necrosis factor alpha. Some studies showed that TNFAIP1 may function in DNA replication, apoptosis and human diseases. However, the definite functions and the mechanisms of TNFAIP1 are poorly known. In this study, we performed a yeast two-hybrid assay and used TNFAIP1 as the bait to screen human brain cDNA library. Potassium channel tetramerisation domain containing 10 (KCTD10) was identified as TNFAIP1-interacting partner. The KCTD10-TNFAIP1 interaction was then confirmed by the in vitro GST pull-down assays and the in vivo co-immunoprecipitation and colocalization assays. In addition, protein degradation and ubiquitin assays revealed TNFAIP1 overexpression resulted in ubiquitin-mediated degradation of KCTD10 proteins, which was significantly alleviated with the proteasome inhibitor MG132 treatment. Furthermore, transient transfection assays with two reporters showed that TNFAIP1 and KCTD10 inhibited the transcriptional activities of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and activating protein-1 reporters. Taken together, our results indicated the novel interaction and function between KCTD10 and TNFAIP1 in human PDIP1 family.

Abstract
Background Binge ethanol in rats after chronic ethanol exposure augments necrosis and steatosis in the liver. In this study, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis proteomic profiles of liver of control, chronic ethanol, control-binge, and chronic ethanol- binge were compared. Results The proteomic analysis identified changes in protein abundance among the groups. The levels of carbonic anhydrase 3 (CA3) were decreased after chronic ethanol and decreased further after chronic ethanol-binge. Ethanol binge alone in control rats had no effect on this protein suggesting its possible role in increased susceptibility to injury by binge after chonic ethanol treatment. A protein spot, in which both cytosolic isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH1) and glutamine synthetase (GS) were identified, showed a small decrease after chronic ethanol binge but western blot demonstrated significant decrease only for glutamine synthetase in chronic ethanol treated rats. The level of gluathione S-transferase mu isoform (GSTM1) increased after chronic ethanol but was lower after chronic ethanol-binge compared to chronic ethanol treatment. The protein levels of the basic form of protein disulfide isomerase associated protein 3 (PDIA3) were significantly decreased and the acidic forms were increased after chronic ethanol- binge but not in chronic ethanol treated rats or ethanol binge in control rats. The significant changes in proteome profile in chronic ethanol binge were accompanied by a marked increase in liver injury as evidenced by enhanced steatosis, necrosis, increased 4-hydroxynonenal labeled proteins, CYP2E1 expression, and decreased histone H2AX phosphorylation. Conclusions Given the role of CA3, IDH1 and GST in oxidative stress; PDIA3 in protein quality control, apoptosis and DNA repair and decreased glutamine synthetase as a sensitive marker of pericentral liver injury this proteome study of chronic ethanol-binge rat model identifies these proteins for the first time as molecular targets with potential role in progression of liver injury by binge ethanol drinking.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor, alpha-induced protein 1 (TNFAIP1) is an immediate-early response gene of endothelium induced by TNF alpha. However, little is really known concerning the TNFAIP1 expression regulation. To better understand how TNFAIP1 expression is regulated, we functionally characterized the promoter region of human TNFAIP1 gene. Deletion mutation analysis, gel electrophoretic mobility shift, and site-directed mutagenesis assays allowed the identification of one functional Sp1-binding site within the human TNFAIP1 core promoter region. Moreover, chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis indicated that Sp1 was associated in vivo with the TNFAIP1 promoter. Further, Sp1 overexpression enhanced TNFAIP1 promoter activity. These findings suggest that Sp1 is implicated in the control of basal TNFAIP1 gene expression. Accordingly, Sp1 is supposed to be involved in the elevation of TNFAIP1 in response to TNF alpha induction, and thus participate in inflammation-associated angiogenesis.

Abstract
Background Recombinant human activated protein C (rhAPC) is associated with improved survival in high-risk patients with severe sepsis; however, the effects of both lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and rhAPC on the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) proteome are unknown. Methods Using differential in gel electrophoresis (DIGE) we identified changes in the BALF proteome from 10 healthy volunteers given intrapulmonary LPS in one lobe and saline in another lobe. Subjects were randomized to pretreatment with saline or rhAPC. Results An average of 255 protein spots were detected in each proteome. We found 31 spots corresponding to 8 proteins that displayed abundance increased or decreased at least 2-fold after LPS. Proteins that decreased after LPS included surfactant protein A, immunoglobulin J chain, fibrinogen-γ, α1-antitrypsin, immunoglobulin, and α2-HS-glycoprotein. Haptoglobin increased after LPS-treatment. Treatment with rhAPC was associated with a larger relative decrease in immunoglobulin J chain, fibrinogen-γ, α1-antitrypsin, and α2-HS-glycoprotein. Conclusion Intrapulmonary LPS was associated with specific protein changes suggesting that the lung response to LPS is more than just a loss of integrity in the alveolar epithelial barrier; however, pretreatment with rhAPC resulted in minor changes in relative BALF protein abundance consistent with its lack of affect in ALI and milder forms of sepsis.

Abstract
Development of toxicological and clinical biomarkers for disease diagnosis, quantification of toxicant/drug responses and rapid patient care are major concerns in modern biology. Even after human genome sequencing, identification of specific molecular signatures for unambiguous correlation with toxicity and clinical interventions is a challenging task. Differential protein expression patterns and protein-protein interaction studies have started unraveling rigorous molecular explanation of multi-factorial and toxicant borne diseases. Proteome profiling is extensively used to investigate etiology of diseases, develop predictive biomarkers for toxicity and therapeutic interventions and potential strategies for treatment of complex and toxicant mediated diseases. In this review, achievements and limitations of proteomics in developing predictive biomarkers for toxicological and clinical interventions have been discussed.

Abstract
AIM: To investigate the effects of experimental partial hepatectomy and normothermic ischemia-reperfusion damage on the time course of the expression of four different growth factor receptors in liver regeneration. This is relevant due to the potential therapeutic use of growth factors in stimulating liver regeneration.
METHODS: For partial hepatectomy (PH) 80% of the liver mass was resected in Sprague Dawley rats. Ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) were induced by occlusion of the portal vein and the hepatic artery for 15 min. The epidermal growth factor receptor, hepatic growth factor receptor, fibroblast growth factor receptor and tumour necrosis factor receptor-1 were analysed by immunohistochemistry up to 72 h after injury. Quantitative RT-PCR was performed at the time point of minimal receptor expression (24 h).
RESULTS: In immunohistochemistry, EGFR, HGFR, FGFR and TNFR1 showed biphasic kinetics after partial hepatectomy with a peak up to 12 h, a nadir after 24 h and another weak increase up to 72 h. During liver regeneration, after ischemia and reperfusion, the receptor expression was lower; the nadir at 24 h after reperfusion was the same. To evaluate whether this nadir was caused by a lack of mRNA transcription, or due to a posttranslational regulation, RT-PCR was performed at 24 h and compared to resting liver. In every probe there was specific mRNA for the receptors. EGFR, FGFR and TNFR1 mRNA expression was equal or lower than in resting liver, HGFR expression after I/R was stronger than in the control.
CONCLUSION: At least partially due to a post-transcrip-tional process, there is a nadir in the expression of the analysed receptors 24 h after liver injury. Therefore, a therapeutic use of growth factors to stimulate liver regeneration 24 h after the damage might be not successful.

Abstract
NOD2, a cytosolic receptor for the bacterial proteoglycan fragment muramyl dipeptide (MDP), plays an important role in the recognition of intracellular pathogens. Variants in the bacterial sensor domain of NOD2 are genetically associated with an increased risk for the development of Crohn disease, a human chronic inflammatory bowel disease. In the present study, global protein expression changes after MDP stimulation were analyzed by two-dimensional PAGE of total protein extracts of human cultured cells stably transfected with expression constructs encoding for wild type NOD2 (NOD2(WT)) or the disease-associated NOD2 L1007fsinsC (NOD2(SNP13)) variant. Differentially regulated proteins were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) peptide mass fingerprinting and MALDI MS/MS. The limited overlap in the responses of the NOD2-overexpressing cell lines to MDP included a down-regulation of heat shock 70-kDa protein 4. A complex pro-inflammatory program regulated by NOD2(WT) that encompasses a regulation of key genes involved in protein folding, DNA repair, cellular redox homeostasis, and metabolism was observed both under normal growth conditions and after stimulation with MDP. By using the comparison of NOD2(WT) and disease-associated NOD2(SNP13) variant, we have identified a proteomic signature pattern that may further our understanding of the influence of genetic variations in the NOD2 gene in the pathophysiology of chronic inflammatory bowel disease.

Abstract
Rat potassium channel tetramerisation domain-containing 10 (KCTD10) gene was cloned and identified as a novel member of polymerase delta-interacting protein 1 (PDIP1) gene family. Rat KCTD10 is highly expressed in lung and moderately expressed in heart and testis. KCTD10 shares significant similarity in amino acid sequence to PDIP1 and can interact with the small subunit of DNA polymerase delta and PCNA as PDIP1 does. Like PDIP1, the expression of KCTD10 gene can be induced by TNF-alpha in NIH3T3 cells.

Abstract
Human polymerase delta-interacting protein 1 (PDIP1) is a tumor necrosis factor alpha and interleukin 6 inducible protein that interacts directly with proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and the small subunit (p50) of DNA polymerase delta. PDIP1 binds PCNA and p50 simultaneously and stimulates polymerase delta activity in vitro in the presence, but not the absence, of PCNA. It has been suggested that PDIP1 provides a link between cytokine activation and DNA replication in eukaryotes. Here these authors report the cloning of two rat genes homologous to human PDIP1, termed rat PDIP1 and rat tumor necrosis factor-induced protein 1 (TNFAIP1). The rat PDIP1 is mapped to chromosome 1q36 cM region, spans approximately 18.7 kb, and is organized into six exons. The rat TNFAIP1 gene is mapped to chromosome 10q25 cM, spans approximately 12.9 kb, and is composed of seven exons. The deduced proteins of rat PDIP1 and rat TNFAIP1 share 63.1% sequence identity with each other and are highly conserved in the majority of the middle portion of the two proteins, which encode a BTB/POZ domain at the N-terminus and a PCNA binding motif (QTKV-EFP) at the C-terminus, respectively. The BTB / POZ domain and the PCNA binding motif are highly conserved during the evolution. Both rat PDIP1 and rat TNFAIP1 were demonstrated to interact with PCNA via BIAcore, GST pull-down, and co-immunoprecipitation assays. Like the human PDIP1, both rat PDIP1 and rat TNFAIP1 stimulate polymerase delta activity in vitro in a PCNA-dependent way.
