Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism of anlotinib resistance in thyroid carcinoma. METHODS We constructed an anlotinib-resistant thyroid carcinoma cell line and observed the effect of drug resistance on the functional activity of these cell lines. Transcriptome sequencing and metabolomic sequencing combined with biosynthesis analysis were used to explore and screen possible drug resistance regulatory pathways. RESULTS Through transcriptomic sequencing analysis of drug-resistant cell lines, it was found that the differentially expressed genes of drug-resistant strains were enriched mainly in the interleukin 17, transforming growth factor-β, calcium, peroxisome proliferator activated receptor, and other key signaling pathways. A total of 354 differentially expressed metabolic ions were screened using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry to determine the number of metabolic ions in the drug-resistant strains. The results of the Venn diagram correlation analysis showed that glutamate is closely related to multiple pathways and may be an important regulatory factor of anlotinib resistance in thyroid carcinoma. In addition, eight common differentially expressed genes were screened by comparing the gene expression profiling interactive analysis database and sequencing results. Further quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction verification, combined with reports in the literature, showed that LPAR1 may be an important potential target. CONCLUSION This is the first study in which the drug resistance of thyroid cancer to anlotinib was preliminarily discussed. We confirmed that anlotinib resistance in thyroid cancer promotes the progression of malignant biological behavior. We conclude that glutamate may be a potential factor for anlotinib resistance in thyroid cancer and that LPAR1 is also a potentially important target.

Abstract
The infection caused by porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is associated with high mortality in piglets worldwide. Host factors involved in the efficient replication of PEDV, however, remain largely unknown. Our recent proteomic study in the virus-host interaction network revealed a significant increase in the accumulation of CALML5 (EF-hand protein calmodulin-like 5) following PEDV infection. A further study unveiled a biphasic increase of CALML5 in 2 and 12 h after viral infection. Similar trends were observed in the intestines of piglets in the early and late stages of the PEDV challenge. Moreover, CALML5 depletion reduced PEDV mRNA and protein levels, leading to a one-order-of-magnitude decrease in virus titer. At the early stage of PEDV infection, CALML5 affected the endosomal trafficking pathway by regulating the expression of endosomal sorting complex related cellular proteins. CALML5 depletion also suppressed IFN-β and IL-6 production in the PEDV-infected cells, thereby indicating its involvement in negatively regulating the innate immune response. Our study reveals the biological function of CALML5 in the virology field and offers new insights into the PEDV-host cell interaction.

[PMID: 37239345 PMCID: PMC10218336 DOI: 10.3390/genes14050985] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 04/25/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
The snub-nosed monkey genus Rhinopithecus (Colobinae) comprises five species (Rhinopithecus roxellana, Rhinopithecus brelichi, Rhinopithecus bieti, Rhinopithecus strykeri, and Rhinopithecus avunculus). They are range-restricted species occurring only in small areas in China, Vietnam, and Myanmar. All extant species are listed as endangered or critically endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List, all with decreasing populations. With the development of molecular genetics and the improvement and cost reduction in whole-genome sequencing, knowledge about evolutionary processes has improved largely in recent years. Here, we review recent major advances in snub-nosed monkey genetics and genomics and their impact on our understanding of the phylogeny, phylogeography, population genetic structure, landscape genetics, demographic history, and molecular mechanisms of adaptation to folivory and high altitudes in this primate genus. We further discuss future directions in this research field, in particular how genomic information can contribute to the conservation of snub-nosed monkeys.

The c-MYC-WDR43 signalling axis promotes chemoresistance and tumour growth in colorectal cancer by inhibiting p53 activity. Drug Resist Updat 2023; 66:100909.

Abstract
Oxaliplatin chemoresistance is a major challenge in the clinical treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC), which is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. In this study, we identified the tryptophan-aspartate repeat domain 43 (WDR43) as a potentially critical oncogenic factor in CRC pathogenesis through bioinformatics analysis. It was found that WDR43 is highly expressed in CRC tissues, and WDR43 overexpression is associated with poor prognosis of CRC patients. WDR43 knockdown significantly inhibits cell growth by arresting cell cycle and enhancing the effect of oxaliplatin chemotherapy both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, upon oxaliplatin stimulation, c-MYC promotes the transcriptional regulation and expression of WDR43. WDR43 enhances the ubiquitination of p53 by MDM2 through binding to RPL11, thereby reducing the stability of the p53 protein, which induces proliferation and chemoresistance of CRC cells. Thus, the overexpression of WDR43 promotes CRC progression, and could be a potential therapeutic target of chemoresistance in CRC.

Abstract
Nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling participates in many biologic processes including immunity, inflammation, and cancer. Here we reported that tripartite motif-containing protein 56 (TRIM56), an E3 ligase enzyme, participated in TNFα-induced NF-κB signaling by interacting with TAK1. Overexpression of TRIM56 potentiated the activation of TNFα-induced NF-κB signaling, whereas knockdown of TRIM56 had an opposite effect. TRIM56 enhanced the ubiquitination of TAK1, specifically enhanced the M1-linked polyubiquitin chains to TAK1, leading to the tight interactions of the TAK1-IKKα complex. Consequently, the stimulation of TNFa and TRIM56 strengthened the interaction with TAK1. Furthermore, we found that the C terminal (CT) domain was the binding region of TRIM56, and the RING domain of TRIM56 was the E3 enzyme activity region which was important to the ubiquitination of TAK1. Together, these results reveal that TRIM56 positively regulates TNFα-induced NF-κB signaling by heightening the ubiquitination of TAK1 and provide new insight into the complicated mechanisms of the inflammatory and immune response.

Genetic Diversity, Inbreeding Level, and Genetic Load in Endangered Snub-Nosed Monkeys ( Rhinopithecus). Front Genet 2020; 11:615926. [PMID: 33384722 PMCID: PMC7770136 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2020.615926] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2020] [Accepted: 11/17/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The snub-nosed monkey genus (Rhinopithecus) comprises five closely related species (R. avunculus, R. bieti, R. brelichi, R. roxellana, and R. strykeri). All are among the world's rarest and most endangered primates. However, the genomic impact associated with their population decline remains unknown. We analyzed population genomic data of all five snub-nosed monkey species to assess their genetic diversity, inbreeding level, and genetic load. For R. roxellana, R. bieti, and R. strykeri, population size is positively correlated with genetic diversity and negatively correlated with levels of inbreeding. Other species, however, which possess small population sizes, such as R. brelichi and R. avunculus, show high levels of genetic diversity and low levels of genomic inbreeding. Similarly, in the three populations of R. roxellana, the Shennongjia population, which possesses the lowest population size, displays a higher level of genetic diversity and lower level of genomic inbreeding. These findings suggest that although R. brelichi and R. avunculus and the Shennongjia population might be at risk, it possess significant genetic diversity and could thus help strengthen their long-term survival potential. Intriguingly, R. roxellana with large population size possess high genetic diversity and low level of genetic load, but they show the highest recent inbreeding level compared with the other snub-nosed monkeys. This suggests that, despite its large population size, R. roxellana has likely been experiencing recent inbreeding, which has not yet affected its mutational load and fitness. Analyses of homozygous-derived deleterious mutations identified in all snub-nosed monkey species indicate that these mutations are affecting immune, especially in smaller population sizes, indicating that the long-term consequences of inbreeding may be resulting in an overall reduction of immune capability in the snub-nosed monkeys, which could provide a dramatic effect on their long-term survival prospects. Altogether, our study provides valuable information concerning the genomic impact of population decline of the snub-nosed monkeys. We revealed multiple counterintuitive and unexpected patterns of genetic diversity in small and large population, which will be essential for conservation management of these endangered species.
