Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Local treatment of nonspine bone metastases has become increasingly complex, resulting in physician practice variability nationwide. The purpose of this study was to assess physician perceptions of 3 implementation strategies to promote adoption of short course radiotherapy (RT) for nonspine bone metastases. MATERIALS/METHODS ALIGNMENT ("Alliance Group for Bone Metastasis") was a multi-institutional stepped wedge cluster randomized implementation trial testing strategies to increase use of ≤5 fractions for nonspine bone metastases conducted across 3 clinical sites in an academic-community partnership. Strategies included a) multidisciplinary consensus guidelines, b) e-Consults, an email-based consultation platform, and c) personalized audit and feedback (A&F) reports with peer comparison. Using the Proctor et al. framework and validated questions from Weiner et al., physician surveys were used to assess each strategy's usefulness, acceptability (i.e., "I welcome [strategy]"), appropriateness (i.e., "[strategy] seems like a good match"), and feasibility (i.e., "[strategy] seems implementable" or "easy to use"). Survey responses were anonymized, so Fisher's Exact test was used to compare proportions with significance set at p<0.05. RESULTS Overall, 29 of 38 and 30 of 38 physicians participated in the pre- and post-implementation surveys, respectively, with 80% completing both. Pre-implementation, guidelines was most often ranked 1st in terms of usefulness (61%), followed by eConsults (38%) and A&F (3%). Post-implementation, guidelines and eConsults had the most and least favorable acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility scores, respectively (Table), with 77% of physicians being likely to recommend the guidelines to other oncologists. In contrast, while 43% of physicians reported having at least 1 difficult clinical question regarding bone metastases during the study, only 33% of physicians preferred eConsults, while 50% preferred reaching out to a friend/colleague. Lastly, although A&F had the lowest perceived usefulness pre-implementation, A&F had the greatest increase in acceptability (72%→90%; p = 0.10), appropriateness (66%→90%; p = 0.03) feasibility ("implementable": 59%→93%, p = 0.002; "easy to use": 45%→93%, p<0.001). CONCLUSION In this multicenter trial, all strategies were acceptable, appropriate, and feasible, with guidelines and A&F showing the most favorable outcomes post-implementation. While guidelines were assessed as the most useful, A&F had significant increases in appropriateness and feasibility.

Abstract
Background Prenatal alcohol exposure is recognized for altering DNA methylation profiles of brain cells during development, and to be part of the molecular basis underpinning Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) etiology. However, we have negligible information on the effects of alcohol exposure during pre-implantation, the early embryonic window marked with dynamic DNA methylation reprogramming, and on how this may rewire the brain developmental program. Results Using a pre-clinical in vivo mouse model, we show that a binge-like alcohol exposure during pre-implantation at the 8-cell stage leads to surge in morphological brain defects and adverse developmental outcomes during fetal life. Genome-wide DNA methylation analyses of fetal forebrains uncovered sex-specific alterations, including partial loss of DNA methylation maintenance at imprinting control regions, and abnormal de novo DNA methylation profiles in various biological pathways (e.g., neural/brain development). Conclusion These findings support that alcohol-induced DNA methylation programming deviations during pre-implantation could contribute to the manifestation of neurodevelopmental phenotypes associated with FASD.

Abstract
In early embryos, DNA methylation is remodelled to initiate the developmental program but for mostly unknown reasons, methylation marks are acquired unequally between embryonic and placental cells. To better understand this, we generated high-resolution DNA methylation maps of mouse mid-gestation (E10.5) embryo and placenta. We uncovered specific subtypes of differentially methylated regions (DMRs) that contribute directly to the developmental asymmetry existing between mid-gestation embryonic and placental DNA methylation patterns. We show that the asymmetry occurs rapidly during the acquisition of marks in the post-implanted conceptus (E3.5-E6.5), and that these patterns are long-lasting across subtypes of DMRs throughout prenatal development and in somatic tissues. We reveal that at the peri-implantation stages, the de novo methyltransferase activity of DNMT3B is the main driver of methylation marks on asymmetric DMRs, and that DNMT3B can largely compensate for lack of DNMT3A in the epiblast and extraembryonic ectoderm, whereas DNMT3A can only partially compensate in the absence of DNMT3B. However, as development progresses and as DNMT3A becomes the principal de novo methyltransferase, the compensatory DNA methylation mechanism of DNMT3B on DMRs becomes less effective.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Studies of public health reporting have only examined multiple episodes of the same communicable disease within an individual. We aimed to characterize Montreal residents with multiple reportable disease episodes from 1990 to 2012, while accounting for all types of reportable diseases. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. METHODS We performed an exploratory analysis using descriptive statistics, contingency tables, and logistic regression. RESULTS There were 157,839 individuals with at least one disease report and a total of 179,455 disease reports. The 9.8% of subjects with more than one episode accounted for 20.7% of all reported episodes. Among subjects with four or fewer episodes, 54.0% were women, while 74.3% of subjects with five or more episodes were men. Subjects with multiple episodes were more likely to be reported for sexually transmitted infections than were persons with a single episode [difference of proportions: 10.4% (95% CI: 10.0%-10.9%)] and to reside in the neighbourhood encompassing Montreal's gay village. CONCLUSIONS Individuals with multiple communicable disease reports place a large burden on public health officials. These results may help guide investigation and prevention efforts to reduce the number of excess episodes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Patient reported outcomes (PROs) are relevant in rheumatology. Variable accessibility and validity of commonly used PROs are obstacles to homogeneity in evidence synthesis. The objective of this project was to provide a comprehensive library of "validated PROs". METHODS A launch meeting with rheumatologists, PROs methodological experts, and patients, was held to define the library's aims and scope, and basic requirements. To feed the library we performed systematic reviews on selected diseases and domains. Relevant information on PROs was collected using standardised data collection forms based on the COSMIN checklist. RESULTS The EULAR Outcomes Measures Library (OML), whose aims are to provide and to advise on PROs on a user-friendly manner albeit based on scientific grounds, has been launched and made accessible to all. PROs currently included cover any domain and, are generic or specifically target to the following diseases: rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, spondyloarthritis, low back pain, systemic lupus erythematosus, gout, osteoporosis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and fibromyalgia. Up to 236 instruments (106 generic and 130 specific) have been identified, evaluated, and included. The systematic review for SLE, which yielded 10 specific instruments, is presented here as an example. The OML website includes, for each PRO, information on the construct being measured and the extent of validation, recommendations for use, and available versions; it also contains a glossary on common validation terms. CONCLUSIONS The OML is an in progress library led by rheumatologists, related professionals and patients, that will help to better understand and apply PROs in rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases.

Abstract
Basic science research in hematology has been determining the functions of gene products using classical approaches that typically involve studying one or a few genes at a time. Proteomics, defined as the study of protein properties on a large scale, provides tools to globally analyze malignant hematologic cells. A major challenge in cancer therapy is the identification of drugs that kill tumor cells while preserving normal cells. Differential display via proteomics enables analysis of direct as well as side-effects of drugs at a molecular level. Proteomics also allows a better understanding of cell signaling pathways involved during apoptosis in hematologic cells. Storing the information in a 2D electrophoresis database enhances the efficiency of proteome research on malignant cells. Finally, the work needed to be carried out on proteomic analysis prior to routine clinical adoption is discussed, and the necessity for multi-institutional collaborations is emphasized.

Abstract
Objectives/purpose: To review Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) labelling claims achieved in oncology in Europe and in the United States and consider the benefits, and challenges faced. Methods: PROLabels database was searched to identify oncology products with PRO labelling approved in Europe since 1995 or in the United States since 1998. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) websites and guidance documents were reviewed. PUBMED was searched for articles on PRO claims in oncology. Results: Among all oncology products approved, 22 were identified with PRO claims; 10 in the United States, 7 in Europe, and 5 in both. The language used in the labelling was limited to benefit (e.g. “…resulted in symptom benefits by significantly prolonging time to deterioration in cough, dyspnoea, and pain, versus placebo”) and equivalence (e.g. “no statistical differences were observed between treatment groups for global QoL”). Seven products used a validated HRQoL tool; two used symptom tools; two used both; seven used single-item symptom measures (one was unknown). The following emerged as likely reasons for success: ensuring systematic PRO data collection; clear rationale for pre-specified endpoints; adequately powered trials to detect differences and clinically significant changes; adjusting for multiplicity; developing an a priori statistical analysis plan including primary and subgroup analyses, dealing with missing data, pooling multiple-site data; establishing clinical versus statistical significance; interpreting failure to detect change. End-stage patient drop-out rates and cessation of trials due to exceptional therapeutic benefit pose significant challenges to demonstrating treatment PRO improvement. Conclusions: PRO labelling claims demonstrate treatment impact and the trade-off between efficacy and side effects ultimately facilitating product differentiation. Reliable and valid instruments specific to the desired language, claim, and target population are required. Practical considerations include rationale for study endpoints, transparency in assumptions, and attention to subtle variations in data.

Abstract
An outbreak of flaccid paralysis syndrome in adults is ongoing in Congo. Molecular analysis of faecal, throat and cerebrospinal samples identified wildtype 1 poliovirus and an additional enterovirus C strain related to enterovirus 109 as the cause. As of 22 November, the cumulative number of cases was 409, of which 169 (41.3%) were fatal. This is one of the largest wild type 1 poliovirus outbreaks ever described associated with an unusually high case fatality rate.

Abstract
Lamin A is a component of the nuclear lamina mutated in a group of human inherited disorders known as laminopathies. Among laminopathies, progeroid syndromes and lipodystrophies feature accumulation of prelamin A, the precursor protein which, in normal cells, undergoes a multi-step processing to yield mature lamin A. It is of utmost importance to characterize the prelamin A form accumulated in each laminopathy, since existing evidence shows that drugs acting on protein processing can improve some pathological aspects.We report that two antibodies raised against differently modified prelamin A peptides show a clear specificity to full-length prelamin A or carboxymethylated farnesylated prelamin A, respectively. Using these antibodies, we demonstrated that inhibition of the prelamin A endoprotease ZMPSTE24 mostly elicits accumulation of full-length prelamin A in its farnesylated form, while loss of the prelamin A cleavage site causes accumulation of carboxymethylated prelamin A in progeria cells. These results suggest a major role of ZMPSTE24 in the first prelamin A cleavage step.

Abstract
The behavioral effects of cocaine are affected by gene knockout (KO) of the dopamine transporter (DAT), the serotonin transporter (SERT) and the norepinephrine transporter (NET). The relative involvement of each of these transporters varies depending on the particular behavioral response to cocaine considered, as well as on other factors such as genetic background of the subjects. Interestingly, the effects of these gene knockouts on cocaine-induced locomotion are quite different from those on reward assessed in the conditioned place preference paradigm. To further explore the role of these genes in the rewarding effects of cocaine, the ability of five daily injections of cocaine to induce conditioned locomotion was assessed in DAT, SERT and NET KO mice. Cocaine increased locomotor activity acutely during the initial conditioning session in SERT KO and NET KO, but not DAT KO, mice. Surprisingly, locomotor responses in the cocaine-paired subjects diminished over the five conditioning sessions in SERT KO mice, while locomotor responses increased in DAT KO mice, despite the fact that they did not demonstrate any initial locomotor responses to cocaine. Cocaine-induced locomotion was unchanged over the course of conditioning in NET KO mice. In the post-conditioning assessment, conditioned locomotion was not observed in DAT KO mice, and was reduced in SERT KO and NET KO mice. These data reaffirm the central role of dopamine and DAT in the behavioral effects of cocaine. Furthermore, they emphasize the polygenic basis of cocaine-mediated behavior and the non-unitary nature of drug reward mechanisms, particularly in the context of previous studies that have shown normal cocaine-conditioned place preference in DAT KO mice.

Abstract
1-hydroxymethylene-1,1-bisphosphonic acids (HMBPs) are important drugs for the treatment of a variety of bone diseases. Since these compounds have no chromophore, their detection is challenging and mass spectrometry (MS) appears to be an appropriate sensitive tool. Our work deals with the analysis by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MSn) of the well-known nitrogen-containing HMBP alendronate and of three analogues, considered as potential prodrugs. These four molecules share a common structure with different protecting groups on the phosphonic acid and on the amine functions. We describe the dissociation mechanisms of nitrogen-containing HMBPs in positive ion mode and we compare, in negative ion mode, our results with literature data. In both modes, the dissociations are essentially losses of ROH, and of phosphorus-containing species (HPO2, ROP(OH)2 and ROPO(OH)2), where R=H, C6H5, or CH3OC6H5. These fingerprints will be of great value for differentiating alendronate from its potential prodrugs in complex biological mixtures.

Abstract
1-Hydroxymethylene-1,1-bisphosphonic acids (HMBPs) are compounds that have interesting pharmacological applications. Unfortunately few studies exist on their analyses by mass spectrometry (MS). In this work, we have analyzed new aromatic HMBPs and their prodrugs with electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS(n)). We describe, for the first time, a complete study of fragmentation patterns, in both positive and negative-ion modes. In positive mode, the cation dissociations are mainly elimination of water and phosphorus fragments. In negative mode, losses of ROH (R==H, C(6)H(5), CH(3)OC(6)H(5)) and HPO(2) were observed. The results have revealed specific structural fingerprints for the screening of these compounds in complex biological mixtures.

Abstract
Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Thus, to identify any useful biomarkers is still a need. We performed "cancer immunomics" to identify autoantibody signatures produced in response to the presence of either breast or colorectal cancer. SERological proteome analysis (SERPA) was performed by two-dimensional (2-D) electrophoresis separation, immunoblotting, image analysis, and mass spectrometry. Alternatively, to identify the antigens recognized by the autoantibodies of cancer patients, we developed an approach combining 2-D immunoaffinity chromatography, enzymatic digestion of the isolated antigens, nano flow separation of the resulting peptides, and identification: MAPPing (multiple affinity protein profiling). By these approaches we identified both proteins recognized by autoantibodies independently of a cancer status, and a limited number of proteins reacting preferentially with cancer sera.

Abstract
Lipodystrophic syndromes associated with mutations in LMNA, encoding A-type lamins, and with HIV antiretroviral treatments share several clinical characteristics. Nuclear alterations and prelamin A accumulation have been reported in fibroblasts from patients with LMNA mutations and adipocytes exposed to protease inhibitors (PI). As genetically altered lamin A maturation also results in premature ageing syndromes with lipodystrophy, we studied prelamin A expression and senescence markers in cultured human fibroblasts bearing six different LMNA mutations or treated with PIs. As compared to control cells, fibroblasts with LMNA mutations or treated with PIs had nuclear shape abnormalities and reduced proliferative activity that worsened with increasing cellular passages. They exhibited prelamin A accumulation, increased oxidative stress, decreased expression of mitochondrial respiratory chain proteins and premature cellular senescence. Inhibition of prelamin A farnesylation prevented cellular senescence and oxidative stress. Adipose tissue samples from patients with LMNA mutations or treated with PIs also showed retention of prelamin A, overexpression of the cell cycle checkpoint inhibitor p16 and altered mitochondrial markers. Thus, both LMNA mutations and PI treatment result in accumulation of farnesylated prelamin A and oxidative stress that trigger premature cellular senescence. These alterations could participate in the pathophysiology of lipodystrophic syndromes and lead to premature ageing complications.

Abstract
This work investigates the use of an HPLC-chip microfluidic device interfaced to an IT mass spectrometer to search for biomarker signatures. To that end, the identification of autoantigens is chosen as a model. It not only constitutes a proof of concept model but also the growing interest in autoantibodies and autoantigens as new markers of diseases provides a practical application at the same time. The peptides are separated by the HPLC-chip system allowing suitable resolution and reproducibility. The determination of two parameters that characterize a peptide sequence during LC-MS/MS analyses, retention time (RT) and m/z ratio, improves the identification of a number of peptides derived from protein digests. These findings illustrate that accurate RT measurement obtained in a microfluidic device is useful to obtain mass/retention time (MRT) pairs for a given peptide, which can contribute to the definition of biomarker signatures.

Abstract
This is the first study to examine the outcomes in 54 patients with hematologic malignancies who received an HLA-matched related donor bone marrow (BM, n = 42) or GCSF-mobilized peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC, n = 12) following identical nonmyeloablative conditioning with the intention of induction of mixed chimerism (MC) followed by prophylactic donor leukocyte infusion (pDLI) to convert MC to full donor chimerism (FDC) and capture a graft-versus-tumor effect without clinical graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Neutrophil and platelet recovery were faster and transfusion requirement was less in PBSC recipients (P < 0.05). A total of 48% of BMT recipients achieved FDC with a median conversion time of 84 days, including 13 following pDLI. In contrast, 83% (P = 0.04) in the PBSC group had spontaneous FDC at a median of 14 days, precluding the administration of pDLI. There was no significant difference in the incidences of acute or chronic GVHD, though the rates of chronic GVHD were considerably higher in PBSC group than in the BM group (6/7, 86% vs 10/24, 42%). CD4 and CD8 T-cell recovery was faster in PBSC recipients. In PBSC recipients, a higher number of CD34+ cells was associated with increased rates of severe, grade III-IV acute GVHD.

Abstract
Patients with cancer produce specific autoantibodies against protein antigens present in limited amount among a large background of immunoglobulins (Igs), nonrelevant as biomarkers, including natural antibodies. Multiple affinity protein profiling (MAPPing) that combines 2-D immunoaffinity chromatography, enzymatic digestion of the isolated proteins, and identification by MS/MS, may facilitate the identification of these so far unknown patient antibodies. The first immunoaffinity chromatography is crucial, as it is used for selectively removing proteins (autoantigens) recognized by natural antibodies. Application of this depletion step to colon cancer cell proteins is specifically described along with the identification of the natural autoantigens, as well as the coupling of this depletion step with the next steps. By enabling to separate antibody-binding proteins recognized by either natural autoantibodies or patient-specific antibodies this approach may contribute significantly towards the definition of autoantibody signatures.

Abstract
The increased incidence of autoantibodies in malignancies has been described since the 1970s. Thus the ability to determine molecular fingerprinting of autoantibodies (antibody signatures) may provide useful clinical diagnostic and prognostic information. This review describes the use of several proteomics approaches for the identification of antigens recognized by these autoantibodies. Serological proteome analysis combines separation of tumor cell proteins on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis gels, Western blotting with sera of patients and healthy subjects, and identification of the detected antigens by MS. Alternatively multiple affinity protein profiling combines isolation of the antigens recognized by patient antibodies by two-dimensional immunoaffinity chromatography and identification by MS/MS. The use and limitations of reverse phase protein microarrays for testing patient serum containing autoantibodies are also considered. Lastly the most important difficulty of any proteomically identified autoantibody signature is validation in patient cohorts or clinical samples.

Abstract
Primary lipodystrophies represent a heterogeneous group of very rare diseases with a prevalence of less than 1 case for 100.000, inherited or acquired, caracterized by a loss of body fat either generalized or localized (lipoatrophy). In some forms, lipoatrophy is associated with a selective hypertrophy of other fat depots. Clinical signs of insulin resistance are often present: acanthosis nigricans, signs of hyperandrogenism. All lipodystrophies are associated with dysmetabolic alterations with insulin resistance, altered glucose tolerance or diabetes and hypertriglyceridemia leading to a risk of acute pancreatitis. Chronic complications are those resulting from diabetes involving the retina, kidney and nerves, cardiovascular complications and steatotic liver lesions that could result in cirrhosis. Genetic forms of generalized lipodystrophy (or Berardinelli-Seip syndrome) result, in most cases, from recessive mutations in one of two genes: either BSCL2 coding seipin or BSCL1 coding AGPAT2, an acyl-transferase involved in triglyceride synthesis. Acquired generalized lipodystrophy (Lawrence syndrome) is of unknown origin but is sometimes associated with signs of autoimmunity. Partial lipodystrophies can be familial with dominant transmission. Heterozygous mutations have been identified in the LMNA gene encoding nuclear lamin A/C belonging to the nuclear lamina, or in PPARG encoding the adipogenic transcription factor PPARgamma. Some less typical lipodystrophies, associated with signs of premature aging, have been linked to mutations in LMNA or in the ZMPSTE24 gene encoding the protease responsible for the maturation of prelamin A into lamin A. Acquired partial lipodystrophy (Barraquer-Simons syndrome) is characterized by cephalothoracic fat loss. Its aetiology is unknown but mutations in LMNB2, encoding the lamina protein lamin B2, could represent susceptibility factors. Highly active antiretroviral treatments for HIV infection are currently the most frequent cause of acquired secondary lipodystrophic syndromes. The genetic diagnosis is performed in specialized laboratories and, in the most severe forms, antenatal diagnosis could be proposed. Treatment of diabetes, dyslipidemia and complications involves the classical intervention strategies. Insulino-sensitizing drugs are useful. Therapeutic trials with recombinant human leptin in patients with very low leptin levels reported good results with respect to the metabolic and liver alterations. The prognosis is linked to the precocity and severity of the diabetic, cardiovascular and liver complications.

Abstract
Specific and efficient selection of serum immunoglobulins, but not other proteins, on T-gel remains difficult. T-gel capacity was determined for different activation conditions and serum loadings. Mass spectrometry analysis was used to identify the proteins found in the flow-through and in the eluted fractions. Alpha-2-macroglobulin and albumin were the major contaminants of the eluates. The influence of the competition between immunoglobulins and the other serum proteins on the adsorption was also studied. Using a serum depleted in immunoglobulins (flow-through of a first chromatography on T-gel), many serum proteins were retained on the T-gel, including albumin. We conclude that T-gel selectivity is less than absolute and may reflect for a large part the experimental conditions of the adsorption.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The MCF7 breast cancer cell line is a cellular model for breast cancer studies and marker discovery. Therefore, a better knowledge of its proteome is a prerequisite for a more efficient use of this model. MATERIALS AND METHODS Proteins expressed during the exponential growth phase of MCF7 cells were analyzed and mapped using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry. RESULTS From the spots excised from preparative gels of whole-cell extracts, a subset of 368 different polypeptides, corresponding to 249 different proteins, was identified. These polypeptides were positioned on a silver-stained gel to construct a reference map. CONCLUSION The data allowed the construction of the most extensive reference map for MCF7 published to date, with 189 novel proteins, which had not been previously listed on maps, and are now accessible on World 2D-PAGE database, providing a basis for further studies on MCF7.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Adipose tissue inflammation has recently been implicated in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance and is probably linked to high local levels of cytokines. IL1B, a proinflammatory cytokine, may participate in this alteration. MATERIALS AND METHODS We evaluated the chronic effect (1-10 days) of IL1B (0.1-20 ng/ml) on insulin signalling in differentiating 3T3-F442A and differentiated 3T3-L1 murine adipocytes and in human adipocytes. We also assessed expression of the gene encoding IL1B in adipose tissue of wild-type and insulin-resistant mice (diet-induced and genetically obese ob/ob mice). RESULTS IL1B inhibited insulin-induced phosphorylation of the insulin receptor beta subunit, insulin receptor substrate 1, Akt/protein kinase B and extracellular regulated kinase 1/2 in murine and human adipocytes. Accordingly, IL1B suppressed insulin-induced glucose transport and lipogenesis. Long-term treatment of adipose cells with IL1B decreased cellular lipid content. This could result from enhanced lipolysis and/or decreased expression of genes involved in lipid metabolism (acetyl-CoA carboxylase, fatty acid synthase). Down-regulation of peroxisome proliferating-activated receptor gamma and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha in response to IL1B may have contributed to the altered phenotype of IL1B-treated adipocytes. Moreover, IL1B altered adipocyte differentiation status in long-term cultures. IL1B also decreased the production of adiponectin, an adipocyte-specific protein that plays a positive role in insulin sensitivity. Expression of the gene encoding IL1B was increased in epididymal adipose tissue of obese insulin-resistant mice. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION IL1B is upregulated in adipose tissue of obese and insulin-resistant mouse models and may play an important role in the development of insulin resistance in murine and human adipose cells.

Abstract
Since the characterization of the genome of the hepatitis E virus (HEV) in 1990, a large genetic diversity has been described. A single real-time reverse transcription (RT)-PCR assay with TaqMan technology has been validated which uses only one set of primers and probe within the ORF2 HEV region (nt 5207-5292) for the detection and quantification of the four major genotypes of HEV. This assay proved to be as efficient as the conventional RT-PCR methodology for the detection of HEV in clinical samples testing positive previously. The real-time RT-PCR and conventional RT-PCR were performed comparatively on 60 pairs of sera and stools collected during a recent outbreak of hepatitis E in Darfur. The real-time RT-PCR assay was 10- to 100-fold sensitive than for conventional RT-PCR assays used in this study with a range quantitation from 1.8 x 10(1) to 7.2 x 10(3) RNA copies/microl in clinical samples (serum and stools).

Abstract
The identification of specific protein markers for breast cancer would provide the basis for early diagnosis. Particularly, membrane and membrane-associated proteins are rich in targets for antibodies that may constitute suitable biomarkers of carcinogenesis. However, membrane proteins separation using 2-DE remains difficult. In this work, the breast cancer cell line MCF7 was used as source of proteins for the screening of potential cell membrane-associated antigens recognized by autoantibodies in patients with breast cancer and healthy volunteers. The protein extract obtained using trifluoroethanol (TFE) as cosolvent was compared to a total cell lysate protein extract prepared by a current technique. After 2-DE separation of the two extracts, their protein patterns clearly differed. About 63% of the proteins identified in the TFE-extract were predicted to possess at least one transmembrane domain. 2-D blots probed with sera from cancer patients or from healthy volunteers showed that, as expected, additional antigens were provided in the TFE-extract. Thus, the method described here appeared well suited for proteomic investigation of potential biomarkers undetected by current techniques.

Abstract
Human lipodystrophies represent a group of diseases characterized by altered body fat amount and/or repartition and major metabolic alterations with insulin resistance leading to diabetic complications and increased cardiovascular and hepatic risk. Genetic forms of lipodystrophies are rare. Congenital generalized lipodystrophy or Berardinelli-Seip syndrome, autosomal recessive, is characterized by a complete early lipoatrophy and severe insulin resistance and results, in most cases, from mutations either in the seipin gene of unknown function or AGPAT2 encoding an enzyme involved in triacylglycerol synthesis. The Dunnigan syndrome [FPLD2 (familial partial lipodystrophy of the Dunnigan type)] is due to mutations in LMNA encoding the lamin A/C, belonging to the complex group of laminopathies that could comprise muscular and cardiac dystrophies, neuropathies and syndromes of premature aging. Some FPLDs are linked to loss-of-function mutations in the PPAR-gamma gene (peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor gamma; FPLD3) with severe metabolic alterations but a less severe lipodystrophy compared with FPLD2. The metabolic syndrome, acquired, represents the most common form of lipodystrophy. HIV-infected patients often present lipodystrophies, mainly related to side effects of antiretroviral drugs together with insulin resistance and metabolic alterations. Such syndromes help to understand the mechanisms involved in insulin resistance resulting from altered fat repartition and could benefit from insulin-sensitizing effects of lifestyle modifications or of specific medications.

Abstract
Nanoflow liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (nanoLC/MS) has become a current tool in proteomics applications increasingly used in the search for new biomarkers. A new integrated microfluidic device (HPLC-Chip), coupled to ion trap mass spectrometry (ITMS), appears as an innovative and robust tool for improving the identifications commonly performed by nanoLC/MS/MS. We tested this device for the identification of proteins obtained from two-dimensional gel electrophoresis or chromatography. The chip allows the measurement of reproducible retention times that, in association with m/z ratios, was found useful for identifying peptide sequences without ambiguity. A sensitivity increase of a factor of at least 5-fold is obtained compared to the results obtained previously in our laboratory by conventional nanoLC/MS/MS on the same ion trap. We conclude that this recently available microfluidic device can be a valuable tool during biomarker discovery programs, particularly identifying low-abundance proteins.

Abstract
This review provides an overview on recent studies in the field of proteome analysis of lymphoma cells, and highlights the potentials of such studies for a better knowledge of drug effects at the molecular level. After giving general information on the field of proteome analysis of lymphoma cells, some characteristics of the strategies used during this analysis are pointed out, such as cell extraction strategies and affinity captures. Therefore, the issue of proteome analysis of lymphoma cells content will be covered with respect to those protein extracts that can be prepared in saline solutions, such as cytoplasm proteins, or that are associated with the cell membranes. The question of which kinds of information have been retrieved from lymphoma-cell proteomics is discussed on the basis of several examples-lymphoma cell-mapping studies and constitution of protein databases, and comparative proteome analysis studies of the modifications that result from a drug treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proteins associated with cancer cell membranes represent targets of choice for humoral immune response as well as potential tumour marker proteins in human malignancies. However, proteomic analysis of these proteins, and more generally of low-soluble proteins, remains difficult. MATERIALS AND METHODS The breast cancer cell line MCF7 was selected to evaluate a sequential extraction method that enables simple fractionation of human cell proteins according to their subcellular localization, yielding subproteomes enriched in cytosolic and membrane-associated proteins, respectively. A crude plasma membrane preparation was followed by the solubilisation of proteins using trifluoroethanol (TFE) as co-solvent. RESULTS Cross-matching and statistical analysis performed for each set of two-dimensional electrophoresis (whole-cell, membrane and soluble extracts) and between the different sets highlighted the reproducibility of the extraction process and its usefulness for proteomic analysis. Eighty-three % of the spots of the gels corresponding to the membrane fraction were not found in the gels of the soluble fraction. CONCLUSION Due to its simplicity, the approach described here appears well suited for membrane proteomic investigation of human cancer cells and detection of potential biomarkers undetected by current techniques.

Abstract
Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are known to interact with hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and immune cells, and are of potential interest to be used as therapeutic agents for enhancing allogenic hematopoietic engraftment and preventing graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Galectin 1 (Gal1) belongs to a family of structurally related molecules expressed in many vertebrate tissues that exert their functions both by binding to glycoconjugates, and by interaction with protein partners. In this work using a proteomic approach, we looked for the presence and the localization of Gal1 in short- and long-term culture of human (h) hMSC. We first determined, that Gal1 is one of the major proteins expressed in hMSC. We futher demonstrated that its expression is maintained when hMSC are expanded through a subculturing process up to five passages. Moreover, Gal1 is secreted and found at the cell surface of MSC, participating in extra cellular matrix (ECM)-cell interactions. Given the immunomodulatory properties of Gal1, its potential involvement in immunological functions of hMSC could be suggested.

Abstract
This study presents an improved method for the complete transfer of proteins separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis to a membrane, specifically designed for the screening and identification of antigens recognized by autoantibodies in patients with breast cancer (BCP) and healthy volunteers. This paper reports the evaluation of this technique using proteins from MCF7 as a source of antigens following 2-DE separation. The appropriate quantity of protein to be loaded on gels (150 microg) has been determined, the aim being a complete and reproducible recovery of all separated proteins onto the polyvinylidene fluoride membrane (2D-blot) after a semi-dry electrotransfer. Several different transfer methods were tested in parallel, resulting in the selection and optimisation of one using a discontinuous buffer system, based on the isotachophoresis theory. To facilitate the comparative analysis of the different sets of 2D-blots probed with individual sera from BCP and healthy volunteers, the 2D-blots were stained with colloidal gold following the immunodetection step. The gels and 2D-blots were scanned and analysed by imaging software. The matching permitted exact localisation of particular relevant protein spots hybridised by antibodies on the 2D-blots. These spots were subsequently located on preparative gels for identification by mass spectrometry. A set of 40 2D-blots was probed with 20 sera from patients with breast cancer and 20 sera from healthy volunteers. In the protein profiles submitted to immunodetection, 15 proteins were repeatedly immunodetected by both BCP and sera from healthy people. Those proteins were identified by mass spectrometry. Conversely, some protein isoforms were preferentially immunodetected by BCP sera and may reflect the presence of this cancer. The improved isotachophoretic method described in this study is suitable for comparing the overall profile of autoimmunity between different populations and for subsequent identification of relevant antigens.

Abstract
With the increasing importance of proteome analysis, studying the phosphoproteome is a priority for functional studies. Therefore, a rational approach to simplifying the proteome is needed. In this work, we examined the use of immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) using ferric ions-chelated column for enriching crude cell extracts in phosphoproteins. The adsorption of the proteins on Fe(3+) was obtained at an acidic pH 5.6, and their elution at a more basic pH in Tris buffer. To evaluate the separation, western blots were performed with either anti-phosphotyrosine or anti-phosphoserine/threonine. The analysis of the eluates demonstrated the selectivity of the separation, particularly for proteins phosphorylated on serine or threonine. In conclusion, the advantages and the limits of this approach are discussed.

Abstract
The aim of the present work was to develop a highly productive and simplified process for active human galectin-1 (Gal1) production. Gal1 is a beta-galactoside binding lectin that differentially affects biological and cellular functions such as immune surveillance and apoptosis. These effects have attracted the attention of researchers in cell biology, biochemistry and immunology. However, the production of sufficient amounts of recombinant human Gal1 (rhGal1) is needed to study of the effects of Gal1 during cell treatments. To this end, an high-yield expression of rhGal1 was achieved by high-cell density fed-batch cultivation using an exponential glycerol feeding strategy and rhGal1 was purified by a one-step purification scheme using affinity chromatography.

Renovascular hypertension is characterised by stenosis of the renal artery and high plasma renin levels due to the recruitment of renin-producing cells along the afferent arterioles. This increase in myoepithelioid cells is mainly a result of the differentiation of existing smooth muscle cells with acquisition of a secretory phenotype. To understand the molecular mechanisms involved in this recruitment, we used the model of renovascular hypertension known as the two-kidney, one-clip model in the Lewis rat. Renal arterioles were isolated using magnetised iron suspension. Differential proteomic analysis was performed using two-dimensional electrophoresis gel followed by mass spectrometry for identification. The most striking protein revealed by proteomics is troponin T, which is down-regulated in the afferent arterioles of the clipped kidney. Confocal microscopy showed that troponin T is specific to the smooth muscle phenotype and absent in the myoepithelioid phenotype.

Abstract
Renovascular hypertension is characterized by stenosis of the renal artery and high plasma renin levels. The renal phenotype is characterized by high levels of renin in the hypoperfused kidney due to the recruitment of renin-producing cells along the afferent arterioles. This increase in myoepithelioïd cells is due mainly to the differentiation of existing smooth muscle cells with acquisition of a secretory phenotype. To understand the molecular mechanisms involved in this recruitment, we used the established rat model of renovascular hypertension known as the two-kidney, one-clip model in the Lewis rat. Renal arterioles were isolated using magnetized iron suspension. Differential proteomic analysis was performed using 2-D polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by mass spectrometry. Comparative analysis of soluble proteins extracted from afferent arterioles of clipped and contralateral kidneys showed 14 proteins significantly differentially expressed by at least a factor of 2. These proteins were identified by mass spectrometry. The most striking protein revealed by proteomics is troponin T, which is down-regulated in the afferent arterioles of the clipped kidney. Confocal microscopy showed that troponin T is specific of the smooth muscle phenotype and absent in the myoepithelioïd phenotype. Our data suggest that troponin T is only present in renal smooth muscle cells.

Abstract
The use of robots has major effects on maximizing the proteomic workflow required in an increasing number of high-throughput projects and on increasing the quality of the data. In peptide mass finger printing (PMF), automation of steps downstream of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis is essential. To achieve this goal, the workflow must be fluid. We have developed tools using macros written in Microsoft Excel and Word to complete the automation of our platform. Additionally, because sample preparation is crucial for identification of proteins by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry, we optimized a sandwich method usable by any robot for spotting digests on a MALDI target. This procedure enables further efficient automated washing steps directly on the MALDI target. The success rate of PMF identification was evaluated for the automated sandwich method, and for the dried-droplet method implemented on the robot as recommended by the manufacturer. Of the two methods, the sandwich method achieved the highest identification success rate and sequence coverage of proteins.

Abstract
5'-azacytidine (AZC) is a potent DNA demethylating agent used clinically for treatment of patients with malignant hemopathies. We have previously shown that AZC induces a halt in cell growth and a decrease of cell activity, without affecting cell viability. We have also shown using proteomics, that 35 polypeptides were differentially expressed in a cytoplasmic fraction. The aim of this study was to provide a more complete picture of modifications in AZC-treated cells using cell membrane preparations. Therefore the protein pattern changes following AZC treatment of the cell line DG75 were studied on a detergent-solubilized fraction obtained from these membranes. Results showed that 49 proteins were differentially expressed in the membrane fraction. Seven polypeptides were down-regulated, while 42 were up-regulated. The identity of most of these differentially expressed proteins was determined by mass spectrometry (liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry or matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight), and the identified proteins were grouped based on cellular function and participation in biochemical and signaling pathways.

Abstract
The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) epidemic has spread dramatically in sub-Saharan African countries. Implementation of active antiretroviral (ARV) therapy programs is urgently needed. However this emergency situation must not extenuate the importance of preliminary studies on ARV resistance of African HIV-1 isolates. Findings show that genetic mutations underlying the resistance of African strains are generally identical to those observed in HIV-1 subtype B in industrialized countries. However the incidence of some mutations associated with mild resistance to protease inhibitors (PI) appears higher in African isolates. The potential impact of these mutations for development of frank resistance to PI is still unclear. The incidence of high-grade resistance markers in untreated subjects is low. While these results do not compromise use of ARV therapy in Africa, they underline the need to set up local networks for patient follow-up and to carry out epidemiological surveillance of HIV-1 resistance. Success of ARV therapies in Africa will also depend on economic and social programs.
