Abstract
Abstract
Background: Abemaciclib (A) activity against breast cancer as monotherapy or combined with endocrine therapy warrants further investigations in other cancer types. However, its significant toxicity profile illustrates the challenge of defining more precisely the patients unlikely to benefit from it, sparing them from useless toxicities. FDG-PET/CT can identify treatment-refractory disease with high negative predictive value, soon after the treatment onset and before morphological changes are observed. MiMe-A was built on the assumption that a therapy that does not induce tumoral metabolic changes 14 days after its onset is unlikely to achieve a significant clinical benefit.
Methods: A multicenter phase II basket trial assessed the efficacy of A in 5 cancers types (cholangiocarcinoma, endometrial, urothelial carcinomas, oesophagal adeno- and squamous cell carcinomas). The primary endpoint is the ‘treatment success’, defined as metabolic response according to PERCIST at FDG-PET/CT performed during the first cycle (D14) and absence of disease progression per RECIST 1.1 after two cycles of A. A Simon’s 2-stage design was used in each cohort based on the null hypothesis that the treatment success rate will be ≤20%. An interim analysis for futility was performed on each cohort after accrual of 17 patients during the first stage.
Results: The baseline characteristics and the metabolic and morphologic evaluation of eligible patients are shown below.
*: stop treatment before the two months (due to progression or toxicities) IQR: interquartile range, PR: partial response, SD: stable disease, PD: progressive disease
The treatment success rate was 0% for each cancer type except for urothelial carcinoma (5,9% (1/17 treatment success). Toxicities were mainly graded 1 or 2, including diarrhea, nausea, fatigue and haematological.
Conclusion: A did not show significant anti-tumour activity in any of the five cohorts. But early metabolic response was noted in 29% of the oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma population, this finding did not translate in disease control at two months. This could be explained by an initial response rapidly followed by tumoral escape. A combination of A with other drugs should be explored in this cancer type.

A20 Inhibits β-Cell Apoptosis by Multiple Mechanisms and Predicts Residual β-Cell Function in Type 1 Diabetes. Mol Endocrinol 2015; 30:48-61.

Abstract
Activation of the transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (NFkB) contributes to β-cell death in type 1 diabetes (T1D). Genome-wide association studies have identified the gene TNF-induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3), encoding for the zinc finger protein A20, as a susceptibility locus for T1D. A20 restricts NF-κB signaling and has strong antiapoptotic activities in β-cells. Although the role of A20 on NF-κB inhibition is well characterized, its other antiapoptotic functions are largely unknown. By studying INS-1E cells and rat dispersed islet cells knocked down or overexpressing A20 and islets isolated from the β-cell-specific A20 knockout mice, we presently demonstrate that A20 has broader effects in β-cells that are not restricted to inhibition of NF-κB. These involves, suppression of the proapoptotic mitogen-activated protein kinase c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), activation of survival signaling via v-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog (Akt) and consequently inhibition of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. Finally, in a cohort of T1D children, we observed that the risk allele of the rs2327832 single nucleotide polymorphism of TNFAIP3 predicted lower C-peptide and higher hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels 12 months after disease onset, indicating reduced residual β-cell function and impaired glycemic control. In conclusion, our results indicate a critical role for A20 in the regulation of β-cell survival and unveil novel mechanisms by which A20 controls β-cell fate. Moreover, we identify the single nucleotide polymorphism rs2327832 of TNFAIP3 as a possible prognostic marker for diabetes outcome in children with T1D.

Abstract
ATP-sensitive K(+) (K(ATP)) channels are expressed ubiquitously, but have diverse roles in various organs and cells. Their diversity can partly be explained by distinct tissue-specific compositions of four copies of the pore-forming inward rectifier potassium channel subunits (Kir6.1 and/or Kir6.2) and four regulatory sulfonylurea receptor subunits (SUR1 and/or SUR2). Channel function and/or subcellular localization also can be modified by the proteins with which they transiently or permanently interact to generate even more diversity. We performed a quantitative proteomic analysis of K(ATP) channel complexes in the heart, endothelium, insulin-secreting min6 cells (pancreatic β-cell like), and the hypothalamus to identify proteins with which they interact in different tissues. Glycolysis is an overrepresented pathway in identified proteins of the heart, min6 cells, and the endothelium. Proteins with other energy metabolic functions were identified in the hypothalamic samples. These data suggest that the metabolo-electrical coupling conferred by K(ATP) channels is conferred partly by proteins with which they interact. A large number of identified cytoskeletal and trafficking proteins suggests endocytic recycling may help control K(ATP) channel surface density and/or subcellular localization. Overall, our data demonstrate that K(ATP) channels in different tissues may assemble with proteins having common functions, but that tissue-specific complex organization also occurs.

C/EBP homologous protein contributes to cytokine-induced pro-inflammatory responses and apoptosis in β-cells. Cell Death Differ 2012; 19:1836-46.

Abstract
Induction of the C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) is considered a key event for endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-mediated apoptosis. Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is characterized by an autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic β-cells. Pro-inflammatory cytokines are early mediators of β-cell death in T1D. Cytokines induce ER stress and CHOP overexpression in β-cells, but the role for CHOP overexpression in cytokine-induced β-cell apoptosis remains controversial. We presently observed that CHOP knockdown (KD) prevents cytokine-mediated degradation of the anti-apoptotic proteins B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) and myeloid cell leukemia sequence 1 (Mcl-1), thereby decreasing the cleavage of executioner caspases 9 and 3, and apoptosis. Nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) is a crucial transcription factor regulating β-cell apoptosis and inflammation. CHOP KD resulted in reduced cytokine-induced NF-κB activity and expression of key NF-κB target genes involved in apoptosis and inflammation, including iNOS, FAS, IRF-7, IL-15, CCL5 and CXCL10. This was due to decreased IκB degradation and p65 translocation to the nucleus. The present data suggest that CHOP has a dual role in promoting β-cell death: (1) CHOP directly contributes to cytokine-induced β-cell apoptosis by promoting cytokine-induced mitochondrial pathways of apoptosis; and (2) by supporting the NF-κB activation and subsequent cytokine/chemokine expression, CHOP may contribute to apoptosis and the chemo attraction of mononuclear cells to the islets during insulitis.

Abstract
Being gated by high-energy nucleotides, cardiac ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channels are exquisitely sensitive to changes in cellular energy metabolism. An emerging view is that proteins associated with the K(ATP) channel provide an additional layer of regulation. Using putative sulfonylurea receptor (SUR) coiled-coil domains as baits in a 2-hybrid screen against a rat cardiac cDNA library, we identified glycolytic enzymes (GAPDH and aldolase A) as putative interacting proteins. Interaction between aldolase and SUR was confirmed using GST pulldown assays and coimmunoprecipitation assays. Mass spectrometry of proteins from K(ATP) channel immunoprecipitates of rat cardiac membranes identified glycolysis as the most enriched biological process. Coimmunoprecipitation assays confirmed interaction for several glycolytic enzymes throughout the glycolytic pathway. Immunocytochemistry colocalized many of these enzymes with K(ATP) channel subunits in rat cardiac myocytes. The catalytic activities of aldolase and pyruvate kinase functionally modulate K(ATP) channels in patch-clamp experiments, whereas D-glucose was without effect. Overall, our data demonstrate close physical association and functional interaction of the glycolytic process (particularly the distal ATP-generating steps) with cardiac K(ATP) channels.

Abstract
Cell-penetrating peptides can cross cell membranes and are commonly seen as biologically inert molecules. However, we found that some cell-penetrating peptides could remodel actin cytoskeleton in oncogene-transformed NIH3T3/EWS-Fli cells. These cells have profound actin disorganization related to their tumoral transformation. These arginine- and/or tryptophan-rich peptides could cross cell membrane and induce stress fiber formation in these malignant cells, whereas they had no perceptible effect in non-tumoral fibroblasts. In addition, motility (migration speed, random motility coefficient, wound healing) of the tumor cells could be decreased by the cell-permeant peptides. Although the peptides differently influenced actin polymerization in vitro, they could directly bind monomeric actin as determined by NMR and calorimetry studies. Therefore, cell-penetrating peptides might interact with intracellular protein partners, such as actin. In addition, the fact that they could reverse the tumoral phenotype is of interest for therapeutic purposes.

MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry: a powerful tool to study the internalization of cell-penetrating peptides. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-BIOMEMBRANES 2009; 1798:2182-9.

Abstract
This review summarizes the contribution of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry in the study of cell-penetrating peptide (CPP) internalization in eukaryote cells. This technique was used to measure the efficiency of cell-penetrating peptide cellular uptake and cargo delivery and to analyze carrier and cargo intracellular degradation. The impact of thiol-containing membrane proteins on the internalization of CPP-cargo disulfide conjugates was also evaluated by combining MALDI-TOF MS with simple thiol-specific reactions. This highlighted the formation of cross-linked species to cell-surface proteins that either remained trapped in the cell membrane or led to intracellular delivery. MALDI-TOF MS is thus a powerful tool to dissect CPP internalization mechanisms.

Abstract
Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) share the property of cellular internalization. The question of how these peptides reach the cytoplasm of cells is still widely debated. Herein, we have used a mass spectrometry-based method that enables quantification of internalized and membrane-bound peptides. Internalization of the most used CPP was studied at 37 degrees C (endocytosis and translocation) and 4 degrees C (translocation) in wild type and proteoglycan-deficient Chinese hamster ovary cells. Both translocation and endocytosis are internalization pathways used by CPP. The choice of one pathway versus the other depends on the peptide sequence (not the number of positive changes), the extracellular peptide concentration, and the membrane components. There is no relationship between the high affinity of these peptides for the cell membrane and their internalization efficacy. Translocation occurs at low extracellular peptide concentration, whereas endocytosis, a saturable and cooperative phenomenon, is activated at higher concentrations. Translocation operates in a narrow time window, which implies a specific lipid/peptide co-import in cells.

Abstract
Harringtonolide (= hainanolide) is a complex polycyclic fused norditerpene isolated from CEPHALOTAXUS HARRINGTONIA var. DRUPACEA. In spite of its appealing biological properties - we measured an IC (50) of 43 nM on KB cells and a significant antifungal activity - its absolute configuration has not yet been firmly established. This was done herein using X-ray anomalous scattering after bromination of the tropone ring, unambiguously giving the stereochemistry 5 R,6 R,7 S,13 S,14 S,15 R,16 R. Detailed IN VITRO biological measurements are provided.

Abstract
Trojan peptides or cell-penetrating peptides (CPP) are natural or designed peptides identified as cellular membrane-crossing molecules, in particular through their potency to vehiculate various kinds of compounds to the cytoplasm and nucleus of living cells. The indirect methods used so far to detect these peptides in cells led to controversial hypotheses on the mechanism of their cell entry. Therefore, we have developed a MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry-based quantification method to track these peptides inside cells. This new method is presented in this review.

Abstract
We have designed a mass stable reporter (msr) tag with m/z over 500, trifluoroacetyl(alpha,alpha-diethyl)Gly-Lys(Nepsilonbiotin)-(D)Lys-Cys, for the quantification of the uptake and study of the degradation processes of cell-penetrating peptides (CPP), by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. This tag was found stable in cell lysis conditions. Using a quantitative MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry analysis based method, an accurate tracking of a new CPP and of its degradation products could be done. (1) The new msr(W/R) nonapeptide (H-RRWWRRWRR-NH2) enters chinese hamster ovary (CHO) K1 cells with a kinetic reaching a steady state after 30-60 min of incubation. This plateau was stable for 4 h and decreased slowly afterward. (2) The peptide msr(W/R) nonapeptide was not cytotoxic over 48 h incubation with CHO cells. (3) After 1 h incubation, the msr(W/R) nonapeptide accumulated with a 3-fold higher concentration than the extracellularly added concentration (7.5 microM). (4) The intracellular quantification was accurate with less than 3% of the quantified peptide being potentially membrane-bound. (5) There was no leakage of the full-length CPP outside the cells. And, finally, (6) analysis of the degradation process of this new CPP suggests that the peptide did not traffick to lysosomes.

Abstract
Two nonstoichiometric ligand binding sites have been previously reported for the NK-1 receptor, with the use of classical methods (radioligand binding and second messenger assays). The most populated (major, NK-1M) binding site binds substance P (SP) and is related to the adenylyl cyclase pathway. The less populated (minor, NK-1m) binding site binds substance P, C-terminal hexa- and heptapeptide analogues of SP, and the NK-2 endogenous ligand, neurokinin A, and is coupled to the phospholipase C pathway. Here, we have examined these two binding sites with plasmon-waveguide resonance (PWR) spectroscopy that allows the thermodynamics and kinetics of ligand-receptor binding processes and the accompanying structural changes of the receptor to be monitored, through measurements of the anisotropic optical properties of lipid bilayers into which the receptor is incorporated. The binding of the three peptides, substance P, neurokinin A, and propionyl[Met(O(2))(11)]SP(7-11), to the partially purified NK-1 receptor has been analyzed by this method. Substance P and neurokinin A bind to the reconstituted receptor in a biphasic manner with two affinities (K(d1) = 0.14 +/- 0.02 nM and K(d2) = 1.4 +/- 0.18 nM, and K(d1) = 5.5 +/- 0.7 nM and K(d2) = 620 +/- 117 nM, respectively), whereas only one binding affinity (K(d) = 5.5 +/- 0.4 nM) could be observed for propionyl[Met(O(2))(11)]SP(7-11). Moreover, binding experiments in which one ligand was added after another one has been bound to the receptor have shown that the binding of these ligands to each binding site was unaffected by the fact that the other site was already occupied. These data strongly suggest that these two binding sites are independent and non-interconvertible on the time scale of these experiments (1-2 h).
