Abstract
Human pre-mRNA splicing requires the removal of introns with highly variable lengths, from tens to over a million nucleotides. Therefore, mechanisms of intron recognition and splicing are likely not universal. Recently, we reported that splicing in a subset of human short introns with truncated polypyrimidine tracts depends on RBM17 (SPF45), instead of the canonical splicing factor U2 auxiliary factor (U2AF) heterodimer. Here, we demonstrate that SAP30BP, a factor previously implicated in transcriptional control, is an essential splicing cofactor for RBM17. In vitro binding and nuclear magnetic resonance analyses demonstrate that a U2AF-homology motif (UHM) in RBM17 binds directly to a newly identified UHM-ligand motif in SAP30BP. We show that this RBM17-SAP30BP interaction is required to specifically recruit RBM17 to phosphorylated SF3B1 (SF3b155), a U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (U2 snRNP) component in active spliceosomes. We propose a mechanism for splicing in a subset of short introns, in which SAP30BP guides RBM17 in the assembly of active spliceosomes.

Abstract
Background: Data management is fast becoming an essential part of scientific practice, driven by open science and FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable) data sharing requirements. Whilst data management plans (DMPs) are clear to data management experts and data stewards, understandings of their purpose and creation are often obscure to the producers of the data, which in academic environments are often PhD students. Methods: Within the RNAct EU Horizon 2020 ITN project, we engaged the 10 RNAct early-stage researchers (ESRs) in a training project aimed at formulating a DMP. To do so, we used the Data Stewardship Wizard (DSW) framework and modified the existing Life Sciences Knowledge Model into a simplified version aimed at training young scientists, with computational or experimental backgrounds, in core data management principles. We collected feedback from the ESRs during this exercise. Results: Here, we introduce our new life-sciences training DMP template for young scientists. We report and discuss our experiences as principal investigators (PIs) and ESRs during this project and address the typical difficulties that are encountered in developing and understanding a DMP. Conclusions: We found that the DS-wizard can also be an appropriate tool for DMP training, to get terminology and concepts across to researchers. A full training in addition requires an upstream step to present basic DMP concepts and a downstream step to publish a dataset in a (public) repository. Overall, the DS-Wizard tool was essential for our DMP training and we hope our efforts can be used in other projects.

Abstract
Human pre-mRNA introns vary in size from under fifty to over a million nucleotides. We searched for essential factors involved in the splicing of human short introns by screening siRNAs against 154 human nuclear proteins. The splicing activity was assayed with a model HNRNPH1 pre-mRNA containing short 56-nucleotide intron. We identify a known alternative splicing regulator SPF45 (RBM17) as a constitutive splicing factor that is required to splice out this 56-nt intron. Whole-transcriptome sequencing of SPF45-deficient cells reveals that SPF45 is essential in the efficient splicing of many short introns. To initiate the spliceosome assembly on a short intron with the truncated poly-pyrimidine tract, the U2AF-homology motif (UHM) of SPF45 competes out that of U2AF65 (U2AF2) for binding to the UHM-ligand motif (ULM) of the U2 snRNP protein SF3b155 (SF3B1). We propose that splicing in a distinct subset of human short introns depends on SPF45 but not U2AF heterodimer. The length distribution of human pre-mRNA introns is very extensive. The authors demonstrate that splicing in a subset of short introns is dependent on SPF45 (RBM17), which replaces authentic U2AF-heterodimer on the truncated poly-pyrimidine tracts and interacts with the U2 snRNP protein SF3b155.

Abstract
Over the last few years, estrogen receptor determination by means of immunohistochemistry has been extensively used. The aim of this study was to compare this technique with estrogen receptor determination by means of dextran-coated charcoal, and to evaluate whether one of the two methods is more predictive of prognosis. Estrogen receptors were determined by means of both the dextran-coated charcoal method and immunohistochemistry in 405 patients with primary breast cancer; age, pathological tumor size, nodal status, and progesteron receptors by dextran-coated charcoal method were also recorded. The disease-free and overall survival probabilities were estimated using the product-limit method; Cox's proportional hazard model was used to evaluate the prognostic role of estrogen receptors as determined by the two methods. There appears to be a close association between estrogen receptor determination by the two methods (81.5% of concordant results) and their prognostic role was similar, even when the patients were divided into different groups (on the basis of their estrogen receptor status) and adjustments for the effect of other prognostic variables were taken into account. Our study shows that the two methods can be used indifferently to evaluate estrogen receptor status as a prognostic factor in breast cancer patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The presence in bone marrow of cells which react with monoclonal antibodies against tumor-associated antigens has been proposed over the last few years as a new prognostic factor in breast cancer patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Bone marrow aspirates were obtained from 109 stage I and II breast cancer patients during or 2-4 weeks after primary surgery. The samples were processed for leukocyte separation on a Ficoll-Hypaque gradient and then used to prepare cytospin slides for immunocytochemical analysis. The slides were stained with a pool of monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) which recognize tumor associated antigens, using the alkaline phosphatase anti-alkaline phosphatase method. The median follow-up was 36 months (range 15-62): 22 patients relapsed and 7 died. RESULTS Thirty-four of the 109 patients (31.1%) had MoAb positive bone marrow cells. The bone marrow was positive in 28/74 (37.9%) patients who had the aspirate taken during surgery and in 6/35 (17.1%) who had it taken after surgery (p = 0.055). No association was found between bone marrow positivity and tumour size, nodal status, menopausal status, estrogen receptor positivity or the proliferative index. No association was found between bone marrow and prognosis: the log-rank test was 0.291 (p > 0.5) for OS and 0.023 for DFS; the hazard ratio (positive vs negative) was 1.51 for OS (95% CI: 0.33-6.86) and 0.93 for DFS (95% CI: 0.35-2.45). CONCLUSIONS In our series, bone marrow positivity did not correlate with prognostic parameters or prognosis. Of interest is the relative excess of positivity when the bone marrow was obtained during surgery.

Abstract
Platinum-DNA adducts can be assayed in peripheral blood leukocytes by means of atomic absorption spectroscopy and ELISA, and high adduct levels have been correlated previously with favorable clinical response to platinum-based chemotherapy. Our purpose was to study adduct formation in peripheral blood leukocytes by means of a new method, inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS), and to correlate adduct formation with clinical response and toxicity. Platinum (Pt)-DNA adducts were measured by means of ICP-MS in leukocytes of 66 patients receiving a cisplatin- or carboplatin-based chemotherapy, collected either before the beginning of treatment and incubated in vitro with cisplatin or 1 and 24 h after the administration of drug to the patient. The Pt-DNA adduct level in leukocytes from patients exposed to drug in vitro was 14.33 +/- 14.71 fmol/microgram DNA (mean +/- SD), which was not significantly different from the value of 23.4 +/- 19.53 fmol/microgram DNA observed in leukocytes from nine healthy volunteers. In samples collected after the administration of chemotherapy, Pt-DNA adducts ranged from 1.91 +/- 3.59 fmol/microgram DNA (mean +/- SD) at the 1-h time point to 2.61 +/- 3.35 fmol/microgram DNA at 24 h (P > 0.05). Adduct levels in leukocytes exposed in vitro did not correlate with adduct levels from patients treated with cisplatin-based chemotherapy (r = 0.085 and 0.011 at 1 and 24 h, respectively). At 24 h, adduct levels in patients receiving cisplatin (3.15 +/- 3.64 fmol/microgram DNA, mean +/- SD) were significantly higher (P = 0.02) than those observed in patients treated with standard dose carboplatin (0.57 +/- 0.73 fmol/microgram DNA) and also higher than those in patients receiving high-dose carboplatin (1.18 +/- 1.06 fmol/microgram DNA), although the latter difference did not reach statistical significance (P = 0.071). No differences in adduct levels (mean +/- SD) were evident between patients responsive (3.23 +/- 3.51 fmol/microgram DNA) and nonresponsive (2.34 +/- 3.01 fmol/microgram DNA) to chemotherapy. In the homogeneous group of patients treated with combination of cisplatin and 5FU, received dose intensity, hemoglobin decrease, and posttreatment creatinine could not be linked with the extent of leukocyte adduct formation. The data presented here demonstrate that ICP-MS allows the detection of adducts in patients treated with cisplatin or carboplatin and suggest that adduct formation in leukocytes is not a major determinant of response or toxicity.

Abstract
The relationship between tumor proliferative activity and response to first-line chemotherapy and survival was investigated in 76 advanced breast cancer patients. Proliferative activity was determined by means of Ki-67 immunohistologic staining on primary tumors (55 patients) or at the relapse site (21 patients), and was classified as low ( < or = 25% of stained cells) or high ( > 25% of stained cells). The usual WHO response criteria were used. The median duration of follow-up was 18 months (range 3-58). Forty-seven patients (62%) had tumors with low, and 29 (38%) had tumors with a high rate of proliferative activity. The two groups were well balanced in terms of important variables such as disease-free survival, performance status, age, menopausal status, and the type of first-line chemotherapy (anthracycline-based regimens versus cyclophosphamide-methotrexate-5-fluorouracil). The estrogen receptor (ER) content, measured by means of immunohistochemical assay, was markedly different in the two groups, with 27/47 tumors with low proliferative activity (57%) and 6/29 with high-proliferative activity (21%) being ER positive ( > or = 45% of stained cells) (p = 0.003). Moreover, a significant difference in the metastatic pattern was also evident, with a higher incidence of bone and a lower incidence of soft tissue metastases in the group of patients with tumors with low proliferative activity (p = 0.004). Overall, 10/47 responses (21%: PR = 7, and CR = 3) were observed in the group with a low rate of proliferative activity, versus 14/29 (48%: PR = 9, and CR = 5) in the group with highly proliferative tumors, the difference being statistically significant (p = 0.03). When a multivariate analysis was performed, the only factor that retained independent prognostic significance was the predominant site of disease, particularly soft tissues (p = 0.003). Despite the difference in response rate, when survival analysis was performed according to the Kaplan-Meier method, no significant difference was observed in the two groups, but when the analysis was limited to responsive patients, the median survival observed in those with a low and those with a high rate of proliferation was 35 and 19 months respectively (p = 0.02). The same results were obtained when multivariate survival analysis was carried out using Cox's regression model. These data suggest that there is a link between tumor proliferative activity and response to chemotherapy in advanced breast cancer, and may indicate the need to use more intensive treatments in selected patients with highly proliferative tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Over the last few years, estrogen receptor (ER) determination by immunohistochemistry (ER-ICA) has been extensively used, but it still remains to be established whether this method can replace the standard biochemical technique using dextran-coated charcoal (ERDCC). PATIENTS AND METHODS ER were determined by both the dextran-coated charcoal (DCC) method and immunohistochemistry (ICA) in 699 patients with primary breast cancer; other parameters (age, pathological T-pT- and nodal status -pN-, progesterone receptors by DCC, proliferative index by ICA) were also recorded. The 'best' cut-off for ERICA was evaluated by means of Receiver Operating Characteristics (R.O.C.) analysis; logistic regression analysis was used to find adequate 'weights' for stain intensity. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS A significant correlation was found between the two methods (p < 0.001). R.O.C. analysis revealed that the 'best' cut-off for the ERICA score was 45% (sensitivity 0.810, specificity 0.804). Logistic regression analysis showed that an ERICA score which also considers staining intensity does not add any useful information concerning ER content in breast cancers.

Abstract
Total and ultrafilterable platinum (Pt) disposition was investigated during 49 courses of chemotherapy in 13 patients with germ cell tumor treated with cisplatin (DDP), 20 mg/m2/day on 5 consecutive days. The following pharmacokinetic parameters were analyzed: distribution (t1/2 alpha) and elimination (t1/2 beta) half-lives, total body clearance (ClT), renal clearance (ClR), and areas under the concentration versus time curve (AUCs). Blood samples were collected immediately before and after DDP infusion (Day 1 through Day 5); in addition, on Day 5, samples were collected at 0.25, 0.5, 1, 8, 24, and 48 h after DDP infusion. Urine was collected during each day of treatment and up to 48 h after the last DDP dose. During each chemotherapy cycle plasma levels of total and ultrafilterable Pt progressively increased from the first to the last day of treatment. At the first cycle, total Pt concentrations ranged from 0.67 to 1.46 micrograms/ml (mean increase, 118%), and those of ultrafilterable Pt from 0.117 to 0.205 micrograms/ml (mean increase, 75%). Mean +/- SD total Pt plasma levels immediately postinfusion increased from 0.67 +/- 0.20 microgram/ml at the first cycle (first day of therapy) to 1.13 +/- 0.21 microgram/ml at the same time point at the fourth cycle. Mean total Pt peak levels were reached at the end of infusion on the last day of each cycle, and increased from 1.46 +/- 0.29 microgram/ml (first cycle) to 1.89 +/- 0.40 microgram/ml (fourth cycle). Total Pt was detectable in plasma before the beginning of all cycles following the first. As a result, AUC significantly increased and ClR significantly decreased.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
