Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) guideline for the gene-drug interaction of CYP2C9, HLA-A and HLA-B with anti-epileptic drugs. Eur J Hum Genet 2024:10.1038/s41431-024-01572-4. [PMID: 38570725 DOI: 10.1038/s41431-024-01572-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2023] [Revised: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024] Open
Abstract
By developing evidence-based pharmacogenetics guidelines to optimize pharmacotherapy, the Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) aims to advance the implementation of pharmacogenetics (PGx). This guideline outlines the gene-drug interaction of CYP2C9 and HLA-B with phenytoin, HLA-A and HLA-B with carbamazepine and HLA-B with oxcarbazepine and lamotrigine. A systematic review was performed and pharmacotherapeutic recommendations were developed. For CYP2C9 intermediate and poor metabolisers, the DPWG recommends lowering the daily dose of phenytoin and adjust based on effect and serum concentration after 7-10 days. For HLA-B*15:02 carriers, the risk of severe cutaneous adverse events associated with phenytoin, carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, and lamotrigine is strongly increased. For carbamazepine, this risk is also increased in HLA-B*15:11 and HLA-A*31:01 carriers. For HLA-B*15:02, HLA-B*15:11 and HLA-A*31:01 positive patients, the DPWG recommends choosing an alternative anti-epileptic drug. If not possible, it is recommended to advise the patient to report any rash while using carbamazepine, lamotrigine, oxcarbazepine or phenytoin immediately. Carbamazepine should not be used in an HLA-B*15:02 positive patient. DPWG considers CYP2C9 genotyping before the start of phenytoin "essential" for toxicity prevention. For patients with an ancestry in which the abovementioned HLA-alleles are prevalent, the DPWG considers HLA-B*15:02 genotyping before the start of carbamazepine, phenytoin, oxcarbazepine, and lamotrigine "beneficial", as well as genotyping for HLA-B*15:11 and HLA-A*31:01 before initiating carbamazepine.

Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) guideline for the gene-drug interaction between CYP2D6, CYP3A4 and CYP1A2 and antipsychotics. Eur J Hum Genet 2024; 32:278-285. [PMID: 37002327 PMCID: PMC10923774 DOI: 10.1038/s41431-023-01347-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2022] [Revised: 02/22/2023] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 04/03/2023] Open
Abstract
The Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) aims to facilitate pharmacogenetics implementation in clinical practice by developing evidence-based guidelines to optimize pharmacotherapy. A guideline describing the gene-drug interaction between the genes CYP2D6, CYP3A4 and CYP1A2 and antipsychotics is presented here. The DPWG identified gene-drug interactions that require therapy adjustments when respective genotype is known for CYP2D6 with aripiprazole, brexpiprazole, haloperidol, pimozide, risperidone and zuclopenthixol, and for CYP3A4 with quetiapine. Evidence-based dose recommendations were obtained based on a systematic review of published literature. Reduction of the normal dose is recommended for aripiprazole, brexpiprazole, haloperidol, pimozide, risperidone and zuclopenthixol for CYP2D6-predicted PMs, and for pimozide and zuclopenthixol also for CYP2D6 IMs. For CYP2D6 UMs, a dose increase or an alternative drug is recommended for haloperidol and an alternative drug or titration of the dose for risperidone. In addition, in case of no or limited clinical effect, a dose increase is recommended for zuclopenthixol for CYP2D6 UMs. Even though evidence is limited, the DPWG recommends choosing an alternative drug to treat symptoms of depression or a dose reduction for other indications for quetiapine and CYP3A4 PMs. No therapy adjustments are recommended for the other CYP2D6 and CYP3A4 predicted phenotypes. In addition, no action is required for the gene-drug combinations CYP2D6 and clozapine, flupentixol, olanzapine or quetiapine and also not for CYP1A2 and clozapine or olanzapine. For identified gene-drug interactions requiring therapy adjustments, genotyping of CYP2D6 or CYP3A4 prior to treatment should not be considered for all patients, but on an individual patient basis only.

Dutch pharmacogenetics working group guideline for the gene-drug interaction of ABCG2, HLA-B and Allopurinol, and MTHFR, folic acid and methotrexate. Eur J Hum Genet 2024; 32:155-162.

Abstract
The Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) aims to facilitate PGx implementation by developing evidence-based pharmacogenetics guidelines to optimize pharmacotherapy. This guideline describes the gene-drug interaction of ABCG2 with allopurinol, HLA-B with allopurinol, MTHFR with folic acid, and MTHFR with methotrexate, relevant for the treatment of gout, cancer, and rheumatoid arthritis. A systematic review was performed based on which pharmacotherapeutic recommendations were developed. Allopurinol is less effective in patients with the ABCG2 p.(Gln141Lys) variant. In HLA-B*58:01 carriers, the risk of severe cutaneous adverse events associated with allopurinol is strongly increased. The DPWG recommends using a higher allopurinol dose in patients with the ABCG2 p.(Gln141Lys) variant. For HLA-B*58:01 positive patients the DPWG recommends choosing an alternative (for instance febuxostat). The DPWG indicates that another option would be to precede treatment with allopurinol tolerance induction. Genotyping of ABCG2 in patients starting on allopurinol was judged to be 'potentially beneficial' for drug effectiveness, meaning genotyping can be considered on an individual patient basis. Genotyping for HLA-B*58:01 in patients starting on allopurinol was judged to be 'beneficial' for drug safety, meaning it is advised to consider genotyping the patient before (or directly after) drug therapy has been initiated. For MTHFR-folic acid there is evidence for a gene-drug interaction, but there is insufficient evidence for a clinical effect that makes therapy adjustment useful. Finally, for MTHFR-methotrexate there is insufficient evidence for a gene-drug interaction.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetics (PGx) studies the effect of heritable genetic variation on drug response. Clinical adoption of PGx has remained limited, despite progress in the field. To promote implementation, the Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) develops evidence-based guidelines on how to optimize pharmacotherapy based on PGx test results. This guideline describes optimization of atomoxetine therapy based on genetic variation in the CYP2D6 gene. The CYP2D6 enzyme is involved in conversion of atomoxetine into the metabolite 4-hydroxyatomoxetine. With decreasing CYP2D6 enzyme activity, the exposure to atomoxetine and the risk of atomoxetine induced side effects increases. So, for patients with genetically absent CYP2D6 enzyme activity (CYP2D6 poor metabolisers), the DPWG recommends to start with the normal initial dose, bearing in mind that increasing this dose probably will not be required. In case of side effects and/or a late response, the DPWG recommends to reduce the dose and check for sustained effectiveness for both poor metabolisers and patients with genetically reduced CYP2D6 enzyme activity (CYP2D6 intermediate metabolisers). Extra vigilance for ineffectiveness is required in patients with genetically increased CYP2D6 enzyme activity (CYP2D6 ultra-rapid metabolisers). No interaction was found between the CYP2D6 and COMT genes and methylphenidate. In addition, no interaction was found between CYP2D6 and clonidine, confirming the suitability of clonidine as a possible alternative for atomoxetine in variant CYP2D6 metabolisers. The DPWG classifies CYP2D6 genotyping as being "potentially beneficial" for atomoxetine. CYP2D6 testing prior to treatment can be considered on an individual patient basis.

Abstract
The Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) aims to facilitate PGx implementation by developing evidence-based pharmacogenetics guidelines to optimize pharmacotherapy. This guideline describes the starting dose optimization of the anti-cancer drug irinotecan to decrease the risk of severe toxicity, such as (febrile) neutropenia or diarrhoea. Uridine diphosphate glucuronosyl transferase 1A1 (UGT1A1 encoded by the UGT1A1 gene) enzyme deficiency increases risk of irinotecan-induced toxicity. Gene variants leading to UGT1A1 enzyme deficiency (e.g. UGT1A1*6, *28 and *37) can be used to optimize an individual's starting dose thereby preventing carriers from toxicity. Homozygous or compound heterozygous carriers of these allele variants are defined as UGT1A1 poor metabolisers (PM). DPWG recommends a 70% starting dose in PM patients and no dose reduction in IM patients who start treatment with irinotecan. Based on the DPWG clinical implication score, UGT1A1 genotyping is considered "essential", indicating that UGT1A1 testing must be performed prior to initiating irinotecan treatment.

Abstract
The Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) guideline presented here, presents the gene-drug interaction between the genes CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 and antidepressants of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor type (SSRIs). Both genes' genotypes are translated into predicted normal metabolizer (NM), intermediate metabolizer (IM), poor metabolizer (PM), or ultra-rapid metabolizer (UM). Evidence-based dose recommendations were obtained, based on a structured analysis of published literature. In CYP2C19 PM patients, escitalopram dose should not exceed 50% of the normal maximum dose. In CYP2C19 IM patients, this is 75% of the normal maximum dose. Escitalopram should be avoided in UM patients. In CYP2C19 PM patients, citalopram dose should not exceed 50% of the normal maximum dose. In CYP2C19 IM patients, this is 70% (65-75%) of the normal maximum dose. In contrast to escitalopram, no action is needed for CYP2C19 UM patients. In CYP2C19 PM patients, sertraline dose should not exceed 37.5% of the normal maximum dose. No action is needed for CYP2C19 IM and UM patients. In CYP2D6 UM patients, paroxetine should be avoided. No action is needed for CYP2D6 PM and IM patients. In addition, no action is needed for the other gene-drug combinations. Clinical effects (increase in adverse events or decrease in efficacy) were lacking for these other gene-drug combinations. DPWG classifies CYP2C19 genotyping before the start of escitalopram, citalopram, and sertraline, and CYP2D6 genotyping before the start of paroxetine as "potentially beneficial" for toxicity/effectivity predictions. This indicates that genotyping prior to treatment can be considered on an individual patient basis.

Abstract
The current Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) guideline, describes the gene-drug interaction between CYP2D6 and the opioids codeine, tramadol and oxycodone. CYP2D6 genotype is translated into normal metaboliser (NM), intermediate metaboliser (IM), poor metaboliser (PM) or ultra-rapid metaboliser (UM). Codeine is contraindicated in UM adults if doses >20 mg every 6 h (q6h), in children ≥12 years if doses >10 mg q6h, or with additional risk factors. In PMs, an alternative analgesic should be given which is not or to a lesser extent metabolised by CYP2D6 (not tramadol). In IMs with insufficient analgesia, a higher dose or alternative analgesic should be given. For tramadol, the recommendations for IMs and PMs are the same as the recommendation for codeine and IMs. UMs should receive an alternative drug not or to a lesser extent metabolised by CYP2D6 or the dose should be decreased to 40% of the commonly prescribed dose. Due to the absence of effect on clinical outcomes of oxycodone in PMs, IMs and UMs no action is required. DPWG classifies CYP2D6 genotyping for codeine "beneficial" and recommends testing prior to, or shortly after initiation of treatment in case of higher doses or additional risk factors. CYP2D6 genotyping is classified as "potentially beneficial" for tramadol and can be considered on an individual patient basis.

Abstract
Many studies have shown that the efficacy and risk of side effects of drug treatment is influenced by genetic variants. Evidence based guidelines are essential for implementing pharmacogenetic knowledge in daily clinical practice to optimize pharmacotherapy of individual patients. A literature search was performed to select committees developing guidelines with recommendations being published in English. The Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG), the Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC), the Canadian Pharmacogenomics Network for Drug Safety (CPNDS), and the French National Network (Réseau) of Pharmacogenetics (RNPGx) were selected. Their guidelines were compared with regard to the methodology of development, translation of genotypes to predicted phenotypes, pharmacotherapeutic recommendations and recommendations on genotyping. A detailed overview of all recommendations for gene-drug combinations is given. The committees have similar methodologies of guideline development. However, the objectives differed at the start of their projects, which have led to unique profiles and strengths of their guidelines. DPWG and CPIC have a main focus on pharmacotherapeutic recommendations for a large number of drugs in combination with a patient’s genotype or predicted phenotype. DPWG, CPNDS and RNPGx also recommend on performing genetic testing in daily clinical practice, with RNPGx even describing specific clinical settings or medical conditions for which genotyping is recommended. Discordances exist, however committees also initiated harmonizing projects. The outcome of a consensus project was to rename “extensive metabolizer (EM)” to “normal metabolizer (NM)”. It was decided to translate a CYP2D6 genotype with one nonfunctional allele (activity score 1.0) into the predicted phenotype of intermediate metabolizer (IM). Differences in recommendations are the result of the methodologies used, such as assessment of dose adjustments of tricyclic antidepressants. In some cases, indication or dose specific recommendations are given for example for clopidogrel, codeine, irinotecan. The following drugs have recommendations on genetic testing with the highest level: abacavir (HLA), clopidogrel (CYP2C19), fluoropyrimidines (DPYD), thiopurines (TPMT), irinotecan (UGT1A1), codeine (CYP2D6), and cisplatin (TPMT). The guidelines cover many drugs and genes, genotypes, or predicted phenotypes. Because of this and their unique features, considering the totality of guidelines are of added value. In conclusion, many evidence based pharmacogenetics guidelines with clear recommendations are available for clinical decision making by healthcare professionals, patients and other stakeholders.

Abstract
Despite advances in the field of pharmacogenetics (PGx), clinical acceptance has remained limited. The Dutch Pharmacogenetics Working Group (DPWG) aims to facilitate PGx implementation by developing evidence-based pharmacogenetics guidelines to optimize pharmacotherapy. This guideline describes the starting dose optimization of three anti-cancer drugs (fluoropyrimidines: 5-fluorouracil, capecitabine and tegafur) to decrease the risk of severe, potentially fatal, toxicity (such as diarrhoea, hand-foot syndrome, mucositis or myelosuppression). Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD, encoded by the DPYD gene) enzyme deficiency increases risk of fluoropyrimidine-induced toxicity. The DPYD-gene activity score, determined by four DPYD variants, predicts DPD activity and can be used to optimize an individual’s starting dose. The gene activity score ranges from 0 (no DPD activity) to 2 (normal DPD activity). In case it is not possible to calculate the gene activity score based on DPYD genotype, we recommend to determine the DPD activity and adjust the initial dose based on available data. For patients initiating 5-fluorouracil or capecitabine: subjects with a gene activity score of 0 are recommended to avoid systemic and cutaneous 5-fluorouracil or capecitabine; subjects with a gene activity score of 1 or 1.5 are recommended to initiate therapy with 50% the standard dose of 5-fluorouracil or capecitabine. For subjects initiating tegafur: subjects with a gene activity score of 0, 1 or 1.5 are recommended to avoid tegafur. Subjects with a gene activity score of 2 (reference) should receive a standard dose. Based on the DPWG clinical implication score, DPYD genotyping is considered “essential”, therefore directing DPYD testing prior to initiating fluoropyrimidines.

Abstract
Surveys among pharmacists and physicians show that these healthcare professionals have successfully adopted the concept of pharmacogenomics (PGx).1-3 In addition, patients are willing to consent to participate in PGx implementation studies.4 However, the surveys also show that healthcare professionals do not frequently order or recommend a PGx test.1,2 Among others, a frequently perceived hurdle for clinical uptake of PGx is the availability of guidelines translating PGx test results into clinical actions for individual patients.5,6.

Abstract
Currently, there are very few guidelines linking the results of pharmacogenetic tests to specific therapeutic recommendations. Therefore, the Royal Dutch Association for the Advancement of Pharmacy established the Pharmacogenetics Working Group with the objective of developing pharmacogenetics-based therapeutic (dose) recommendations. After systematic review of the literature, recommendations were developed for 53 drugs associated with genes coding for CYP2D6, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, thiopurine-S-methyltransferase (TPMT), dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKORC1), uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1), HLA-B44, HLA-B*5701, CYP3A5, and factor V Leiden (FVL).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Sub-clinical systemic inflammation is often present in T2DM patients. Systemic inflammation has also been implicated in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis. This review investigates the direct evidence present in literature for the effect of inflammation on atherosclerosis, specifically in the setting of T2DM. Special emphasis is given to the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis as well as intermediate and clinical cardiovascular endpoints. The important role of deteriorated endothelial function in T2DM was excluded from the analysis. METHODS Extensive literature searches were performed using the PubMed and Web of Science databases. Articles were identified, retrieved and accepted or excluded based on predefined criteria. RESULTS Substantial evidence was found for an important inflammatory component in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis in T2DM, demonstrated by inflammatory changes in plaque characteristics and macrophage infiltration. Most epidemiologic studies found a correlation between inflammation markers and intermediate cardiovascular endpoints, especially intima-media thickness. Several, but not all clinical trials in T2DM found that reducing sub-clinical inflammation had a beneficial effect on intermediate endpoints. When regarding cardiovascular events however, current literature consistently indicates a strong relationship between inflammation and clinical endpoints in subjects with T2DM. CONCLUSION Current literature provides direct evidence for a contribution of inflammatory responses to the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis in T2DM. The most consistent relation was observed between inflammation and clinical endpoints.

Abstract
It has long been known that under intracellular conditions vasopressin associates tightly to neurophysin, which is present in the same prohormone. As the association has been suggested to play a role during hormone biosynthesis, its role was studied in a cellular context by expressing mutant vasopressin precursors in Neuro2A cells. Mutant vasopressin precursors, in which the association between the vasopressin and neurophysin domains was prevented either by deleting the vasopressin domain from the precursor or by substitution of the essential Tyr2 residue in vasopressin for Gly, were neither processed nor targeted into secretory granules. Rather, both provasopressin mutants were retained in the endoplasmic reticulum. Our results demonstrate that the vasopressin domain is crucial for correct trafficking of the prohormone through the secretory pathway, and suggest that vasopressin-neurophysin association provides correct prohormone folding in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
Magnetic resonance techniques are required frequently for the assessment of the brain of ill neonates. In the present study, the effects of a 1.5 T MR scanner on devices for life support were assessed. A ventilator (Dräger Babylog 2000) was tested in the 1.5 T magnet, using a neonatal ventilation tester and 1.5-5 m tubes. In a special MR incubator, temperature and humidity were measured at 1-min intervals. Infusion was tested with the pump outside the magnet room: infusion rates and time to alarm were tested with 7-m tubes. The ventilator performed normally at a magnetic field line of 2 mT, although the alarms failed. The incubator created a temperature of 35.9 degrees C and humidity of 40.7%, which was acceptable for examinations of 45 min. The alarm limits of the infusion pump placed outside the magnet at 7 m were within company limits. The study indicates that magnetic resonance examinations can be performed safely in ill preterm neonates who require life-support devices.

Abstract
Familial neurohypophysial diabetes insipidus (FNDI) is an autosomal dominant trait in which expression of a mutant vasopressin prohormone reduces vasopressin production. We investigated the NP85 Cys-->Gly mutant vasopressin prohormone in a large kindred in The Netherlands. We demonstrate that growth retardation is an important early sign in two children from this kindred, which recuperates by substitution therapy with 1-desamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin. To obtain clues about the basis for the dominant inheritance of FNDI, we analyzed the trafficking and processing of the mutant vasopressin prohormone in cell lines by metabolic labeling and immunoprecipitation. The mutant vasopressin prohormone was retained in the endoplasmic reticulum and thus was not processed to vasopressin. This defect was not caused by dimerization of the vasopressin prohormone via its unpaired cysteine residue. High level expression of the mutant vasopressin prohormone in cell lines resulted in strong accumulation in the endoplasmic reticulum and an altered morphology of this organelle. We hypothesize that disturbance of the endoplasmic reticulum results in dysfunction and ultimately cell death of the cells expressing the mutant prohormone. Our data support the hypothesis that FNDI is a progressive neurodegenerative disease with delayed onset of symptoms. Its treatment requires early detection of symptoms for which growth parameters are useful.

Abstract
Over 20 mutations affecting the neurophysin moiety of the vasopressin prohormone, have been identified in families suffering from familial neurohypophysial diabetes insipidus (FNDI). Only one of these, NP87E-->stop, is located outside the central conserved domain implicated in sorting of the vasopressin prohormone. To obtain clues about the mechanism of induction of FNDI by this atypical mutant we stably expressed wild type and NP87E-->stop vasopressin prohormones in (neuro)endocrine cell lines. Metabolic labeling and immunoprecipitation demonstrated reduced processing of the mutant prohormone to neurophysin. In addition, evoked secretion of neurophysin and vasopressin was diminished, suggesting that part of the mutant is retained in another intracellular compartment than the secretory granules. Indeed, immunofluorescence demonstrated accumulation of the truncated vasopressin prohormone in the endoplasmic reticulum. We conclude that the presence of the vasopressin moiety and the central conserved core of the neurophysin domain suffices for sorting and processing, but not for efficient endoplasmic reticulum exit of the vasopressin-neurophysin molecule.

Abstract
Biosynthesis of the vasopressin (VP) prohormone in magnocellular neurones of the hypothalamo-neurohypophysial system comprises endoplasmic reticulum (ER) transit, sorting into the regulated secretory pathway and subsequent processing in the individual proteins VP, neurophysin and a glycoprotein. These processes are severely disrupted in the homozygous diabetes insipidus (di/di) Brattleboro rat, which expresses a mutant VP precursor due to a single nucleotide deletion in the neurophysin region of the VP gene resulting in VP deficiency. Previous studies have shown the presence of additional frameshift mutations in VP transcripts, in solitary magnocellular neurones of the di/di rat due to a GA dinucleotide deletion resulting in two different mutant VP precursors with partly restored reading frame. Frameshifted VP precursors are also expressed in several magnocellular neurones in wild-type rats. In this study, we determined if the +1 frameshifted precursors from di/di and wild-type rats can lead to biosynthesis of the hormone VP. Therefore, eukaryotic expression plasmids containing the frameshifted VP cDNAs were transiently expressed in peptidergic tumour cell lines, and cells were analysed by reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography and specific radioimmunoassays, and by immunofluoresence. Neuro2A neuroblastoma cells expressing the +1 frameshifted precursors of di/di rats retained products in the cell body. Only precursor or insignificant quantities of neurophysin-immunoreactive products were detected. In contrast, in AtT20 cells, frameshifted VP precursors were at least partly processed to yield the VP peptide, indicating that they have access to the regulated secretory pathway. Comparison between the two cell lines showed a very slow ER transit of the wild-type prohormone combined with inefficient processing in Neuro2A cells. The results show that mutant precursors can reach the regulated secretory pathway if ER transport is sufficiently rapid as in the case of AtT20 cells. This suggests that the di/di rat may regain the capacity to biosynthesize authentic VP through these +1 frameshifted precursors in magnocellular neurones.

Abstract
We have analysed BP180 mRNA expression in normal human keratinocytes. Here we report the presence in normal keratinocytes of two COL17A1 transcripts which differ by 0.6 kb in length. Both mRNAs hybridized on Northern blot with probes directed to sequences encoding intracellular and extracellular fragments of BP180. By BLAST homology search alignments we extended the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of the known BP180 mRNA sequence by 877 bases to completion. Three of 20 cDNAs identified by BLAST searches contained a 610 bp deletion in this new 3'UTR sequence. Northern blot analysis with a probe complementary to this deleted sequence showed binding only to the larger mRNA. The deletion of 610 nucleotides in the smaller mRNA was verified by reverse transcription-PCR and sequencing. Genomic PCR showed the new sequence to be an extension of exon 56 of the COL17A1 gene which suggests that the second mRNA is generated by differential splicing. In normal keratinocytes the level of the smaller transcript was 5-15% of that of the larger transcript whereas in a squamous cell carcinoma cell line this ratio was reversed, the smaller mRNA being three times more abundant than the larger mRNA. The biological significance of this newly identified transcript in protein synthesis and tissue expression or in cell differentiation, proliferation or adhesion is as yet unknown.

Abstract
Familial neurohypophysial diabetes insipidus is characterized by vasopressin deficiency caused by heterozygous expression of a mutated vasopressin prohormone gene. To elucidate the mechanism of this disease, we stably expressed five vasopressin prohormones with a mutation in the neurophysin moiety (NP14G-->R, NP47E-->G, NP47DeltaE, NP57G-->S, and NP65G-->V) in the neuroendocrine cell lines Neuro-2A and PC12/PC2. Metabolic labeling demonstrated that processing and secretion of all five mutants was impaired, albeit to different extents (NP65G-->V >/= NP14G-->R > NP47DeltaE >/= NP47E-->G > NP57G-->S). Persisting endoglycosidase H sensitivity revealed these defects to be due to retention of mutant prohormone in the endoplasmic reticulum. Mutant prohormones that partially passed the endoplasmic reticulum were normally targeted to the regulated secretory pathway. Surprisingly, this also included mutants with mutations in residues involved in binding of vasopressin to neurophysin, a process implicated in targeting of the prohormone. To mimick the high expression in vasopressin-producing neurons, mutant vasopressin prohormones were transiently expressed in Neuro-2A cells. Immunofluorescence displayed formation of large accumulations of mutant prohormone in the endoplasmic reticulum, accompanied by redistribution of an endoplasmic reticulum marker. Our data suggest that prolonged perturbation of the endoplasmic reticulum eventually leads to degeneration of neurons expressing mutant vasopressin prohormones, explaining the dominant nature of the disease.

Abstract
This study characterized the high molecular mass BP180 complex that is observed when unheated sodium dodecyl sulfate extracts of human skin or keratinocytes are subjected to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting. In heated extracts BP180 is present as a monomer with a molecular weight of 180 kDa, in unheated extracts BP180 runs at a molecular weight position over 500 kDa. By preincubating the unheated extracts at temperatures between 31 degrees C and 40 degrees C, the high molecular weight complex could be "melted" down to monomeric BP180. Under the conditions employed the T1/2 of the dissociation process was between 35 degrees C and 36 degrees C. The temperature resistance of the high molecular weight complex was used to analyze its molecular composition by performing two-dimensional electrophoresis with a "low-temperature" first dimension step and a "high-temperature" second dimension step. Silver staining and immunoblotting of the two-dimensional gels revealed the high molecular weight complex to be composed of solely BP180, indicating that the complex is the nondissociated homotrimeric form of BP180. The 120 kDa linear IgA dermatosis antigen (LAD-1) is an collagenous anchoring filament protein with homology to the extracellular collagenous part of BP180. Two-dimensional immunoblotting showed that LAD-1, as BP180, is also present as a high molecular mass complex and does not form mixed complexes with BP180.

Abstract
Adult female rats were thyroidectomized. After an average of 17 weeks, horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was injected into the right side soleus muscle. Two days later, left side soleus muscle properties were recorded and muscles and spinal cord were removed for further histological measurements. Soleus muscles from hypothyroid rats no longer contained type IIA fibers. Contraction and half-relaxation times of twitches had increased significantly compared to control rats. The average cross-sectional surface areas of HRP-labeled soleus motoneurones from hypothyroid rats were slightly but significantly smaller than those of control rats. A similar decrease in size was found for other (presumed moto-) neurones lying ventrolaterally to the soleus motor nucleus. It is concluded that changes in the soleus muscle fiber composition, as caused by lowered levels of thyroid hormone, are paralleled by corresponding changes in the size of its motoneurones and also of other spinal (moto)neurones.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident stress protein gp96 induces a major histocompatibility complex class I-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) response against antigens present in the cells from which it has been prepared. In this study, photoreactive peptides were translocated into the ER by the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP). These peptides can be cross-linked specifically to gp96. Thus, we provide the first evidence that gp96 binds TAP-translocated peptides which have been implicated in the induction of specific CTL responses after immunization with gp96 (Srivastava, P. K. et al., Immunogenetics 1994. 39: 93).

Abstract
Mitotic gene conversion acting as reverse mutation has not been previously demonstrated in human. We report here that the revertant mosaicism of a compound heterozygous proband with an autosomal recessive genodermatosis, generalized atrophic benign epidermolysis bullosa, is caused by mitotic gene conversion of one of the two mutated COL17A1 alleles. Specifically, the maternal allele surrounding the mutation site on COL17A1 (1706delA) showed reversion of the mutation and loss of heterozygosity along a tract of at least 381 bp in revertant keratinocytes derived from clinically unaffected skin patches; the paternal mutation (R1226X) remained present in all cell samples. Revertant mosaicism represents a way of natural gene therapy.

Abstract
The transporter associated with Ag processing (TAP) translocates cytosolic peptides into the endoplasmic reticulum, where they can bind to MHC class I molecules. TAP does not translocate all peptides with equal efficiency, but selects peptides with regard to both their length and their sequence and, in this manner, affects the pool of peptides available for binding to MHC class I molecules. It has been demonstrated that peptide selection by TAP predominantly occurs during the first step in the translocation process, namely the association of the peptide with a binding site present on the TAP molecule. In this study, we identify four regions, two on the TAP1 and two on the TAP2 subunit, that make major contributions to this binding site. For both TAP1 and TAP2, the identified regions overlap with the cytosol-membrane boundaries of the two transmembrane segments closest to the ATP binding site. Our data are consistent with a model in which the transmembrane segments of TAP form a pore in the membrane, with the peptide binding site being formed by the cytosolic mouth of this pore.

Abstract
The heterodimeric transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP1/TAP2) translocates peptides from the cytosol into the endoplasmic reticulum where loading of major histocompatibility complex class I molecules takes place. TAP transporters from different species are known to exhibit distinct transport specificities with regard to the C-terminal amino acid (aa) of peptides. Thus, human TAP (hTAP), and rat TAP (rTAP) containing the rTAP2a allele are rather promiscuous, whereas mouse TAP (mTAP), and rTAP containing the rTAP2a allele are restrictive and select against peptides with C-terminal small polar/hydrophobic or positively charged aa. The structural basis for this selectivity is not clear. To assess the relative contribution of the TAP1 and TAP2 subunits to transport specificity, we have constructed and analyzed interspecies TAP hybrids and point mutants of hTAP2 expressed in Sf9 insect cells and in TAP-deficient T2 cells. Transport assays with 20 C-terminal variants of the peptide RYWANATRSX showed that: first, transport specificity with regard to C-terminal aa is mainly influenced by TAP2, but TAP1 can also contribute. Second, the selective transport of peptides with C-terminal positively charged aa is critically controlled by the amino-terminal region (1-361) on the TAP2 chain, while transport of peptides with C-terminal small polar/hydrophobic aa is determined by residues located within as well as outside the region 1-361. Third, a single point mutation in hTAP2 (374A-->D) resulted in a drastic alteration of the transport pattern. These results indicate that both TAP1 and TAP2 contribute to efficient peptide transport and that single point mutations in hTAP2 are able to alter the peptide transport specificity. This opens the possibility that naturally occurring mutations in one of the hTAP subunits may alter epitope selection in vivo.

Abstract
The transporter associated with Ag processing (TAP) translocates cytosolic peptides into the endoplasmic reticulum for presentation by MHC class 1 molecules. Recently, the actual peptide translocation step has been suggested to be preceded by binding of the peptide to TAP. In this study, we investigated the peptide binding site of TAP and its relevance for peptide selection by cross-linking of translocatable peptides. Our data demonstrate, first, that for a TAP heterodimer containing the rat TAPu allelic product, which selects peptides on basis of their C terminus, the translocation efficiency correlates with the peptide binding efficiency. Second, peptides having the cross-linker at different positions all label both the TAP1 and the TAP2 subunit after binding to the heterodimer, indicating that both TAP subunits contribute directly to the peptide binding site and contact most or all amino acids of a bound peptide. Third, by enzymatic digestion and the use specific antisera, we identified a domain of human TAP1 that contributes to the peptide binding site. This domain contains the two hydrophobic and thus putative transmembrane regions closest to the ATP binding sites. We conclude that the peptide binding site controls the selectivity of TAP and is composed of domains of both TAP1 and TAP2, which each contact the bound peptide over all or most of its length. Moreover, the major contact site(s) for peptide on TAP1 are located within or close to the two putative transmembrane regions adjacent to the ATP binding site.

Abstract
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-encoded transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) delivers cytosolic peptides to the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) for presentation by MHC class I molecules. For the rat, it has been demonstrated that TAP polymorphism results in the selection of different sets of peptides, the nature of the C terminus being of particular importance. Here, we investigated whether TAP polymorphism in mice and humans has functional consequences for transport of peptide sets variable at the C-terminal residues. Using cell lines of H-2d, H-2k, and H-2dxk haplotype and a panel of human lymphoblastoid cell lines expressing eight different TAP alleles, we detected species-specific transport patterns, but no significant influence of TAP polymorphism on peptide selection. In addition, peptides with different core sequences were translocated to the same extent by different TAP. These results suggest that a major contribution of human TAP polymorphism to disease progression and autoimmunity is not very likely.

Abstract
During biosynthesis, major histochompatibility complex class II molecules are transported to the cell surface through a late endocytic multilaminar structure with lysosomal characteristics. This structure did not resemble any of the previously described endosomal compartments and was termed MIIC. We show here that continuous protein synthesis is required for the maintenance of MIIC in B cells. Transfection of class II molecules in human embryonal kidney cells induces the formation of multilaminar endocytic structures that are morphologically analogous to MIIC in B cells. Two lysosomal proteins (CD63 and lamp-1), which are expressed in MIIC of B cells, are also present in the structures induced by expression of major histocompatibility complex class II molecules. Moreover, endocytosed HRP enters the induced structures defining them as endocytic compartments. Exchanging the transmembrane and cytoplasmic tail of the class II alpha and beta chains for that of HLA-B27 does not result in the induction of multilaminar structures, and the chimeric class II molecules are now located in multivesicular structures. This suggests that expression of class II molecules is sufficient to induce the formation of characteristic MIIC-like multilaminar structures.

Abstract
We studied the functional consequences of targeting class II molecules to either the cell surface or to endocytic structures by expressing HLA-DR1 in human kidney cells in the presence or absence of different forms of the invariant chain (Ii). Transfectants expressing class II molecules in the absence of Ii present influenza virus efficiently and co-expression of full length Ii does not further increase antigen presentation. Chimeric Ii containing the cytoplasmic domain of the transferrin receptor (Tfr-Ii) delivers class II molecules associated with Tfr-Ii to endosomal compartments, but this does not result in efficient antigen presentation. When class II molecules are targeted to the cell surface by Ii lacking either 15 (delta 15Ii) or 23 (delta 23Ii) amino acids from the cytoplasmic domain, a fraction of free class II molecules is also observed. Whereas delta 15Ii did not affect antigen presentation by class II molecules, delta 23Ii inhibited, but did not abrogate, the response. We show that class II molecules expressed in the presence of delta 23Ii can be internalized, followed by degradation of delta 23Ii and return of free class II alpha beta heterodimers to the cell surface. A fraction of the resulting free class II molecules is sodium dodecyl sulfate stable, indicating that internalization and reappearance of class II molecules at the cell surface can be an alternative route for antigen presentation. In all transfectants, class II molecules were found in endocytic compartments that labeled for CD63 and resembled the multilaminar MIIC compartments found in B cell lines. Ii is not required for endosomal targeting of class II molecules. The number of class II molecules observed in the multilaminar compartments correlates with the efficiency of antigen presentation.

Abstract
Endogenous antigen presentation by major histocompatibility complex class II molecules can be understood if class II alpha beta heterodimers bind peptide in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) before they associate with the invariant chain (Ii). We have studied the assembly of class II molecules from the free alpha, beta and Ii subunits to examine the existence of a class II alpha beta heterodimer as an intermediate in the assembly of class II alpha beta Ii heterotrimers in the ER. In human kidney cell transfectants, the free class II alpha and beta subunits and the class II alpha beta heterodimer are retained in the ER by association with the chaperonin immunoglobulin binding protein (BiP) and Ii is retained through its cytoplasmic tail. Co-expression of Ii results in release of BiP from class II alpha beta complexes and exit of class II alpha beta Ii heterotrimers from the ER. We show that the cytoplasmic tail and the transmembrane region of the class II alpha and beta chain is not essential for proper assembly of the class II alpha beta heterodimer. We followed assembly of the class II alpha beta Ii heterotrimers in wild-type cells. The class II subunits assemble post-translationally. No class II alpha beta heterodimers could be isolated as intermediates in the formation of class II alpha beta Ii heterotrimers, suggesting that peptide binding by class II molecules in the ER is necessarily inefficient.
