TY - THES A1 - Wohlleben, Michael T1 - Sequenzanalyse des humanen 5´-Deiodase (Typ I) -Gens bei Patienten mit Schilddrüsenfunktionsstörungen T1 - Sequence analysis of the human 5' deiodinase (type I) - gene in patients with thyroid malfunction N2 - Durch ihre Aufgaben im Metabolismus der Schilddrüsenhormone kommt der Enzymfamilie der Deiodasen im feinregulierten Zusammenspiel der Aktivierung und Inaktivierung dieser signalgebenden Stoffe eine zentrale Rolle zu. Störungen in diesem System ziehen weitreichende Folgen auf der Ebene der Entwicklung und Steuerung des gesamten Organismus nach sich. Verminderte Aktivität der 5´DI, sei sie durch unzureichende Expression des Gens oder posttranskriptionelle Fehlsteuerung bedingt, geht dabei mit einer sogenannten „Konversionshemmung“ einher, die sich in erhöhten T4- und rT3-Spiegeln bei vermindertem Plasma-T3-Gehalt äußert. Diese Konstellation wird in Tiermodellen, bei denen ein 5´DI-Defekt auf molekularer Ebene bekannt ist, beobachtet. Ein derartiger Defekt ist jedoch beim Menschen bislang nicht festgestellt worden. Eine routinemäßige Untersuchung des 5´DI-Gens von Patienten, bei denen ein Enzymdefekt die Ursache ihrer Symptomatik sein könnte, ist mit Hilfe des hier aufgeführten Verfahrens unter einfachen Bedingungen möglich. In dieser Arbeit wird neben der Beschreibung eines stummen Polymorphismus im Exon 1 erstmals eine potentiell relevante Veränderung im translatierten Bereich des 5´DI-Gens beschrieben. Ausgewählte Patienten, deren Symptome den Verdacht auf eine Konversionshemmung aufkommen lassen, sind (bei sonst unveränderter Exonstruktur) heterozygot für eine Punktmutation im Codon 108 im Exon 1. Durch den Austausch von G durch A ergibt sich bei ihnen aus dem Codon UGG für die Aminosäure Tryptophan das Stop- beziehungsweise SeCys-Codon UGA. Im ersten Fall entsteht dadurch ein etwa um die Hälfte verkürztes und damit wohl funktionsunfähiges Protein, im zweiten ein in Konformation und Aktivität sicherlich beeinträchtigtes Enzym, vorausgesetzt, das im 3’-untranslatierten Bereich der mRNA befindliche SECIS-Element ist für dieses UGA-Codon wirksam. Bei beiden Varianten ist jedoch zu klären, ob der Defekt durch das zweite wildtypische Allel teilweise oder völlig kompensiert werden kann, wozu Untersuchungen von Gewebeproben aus Leber und Niere beziehungsweise die Expression des veränderten Gens in Zellkultur erforderlich wären. N2 - By its functions in the metabolismus of the thyroid hormones a central role comes to the enzyme family of the deiodinases by activation and inactivating these signal-giving hormones. Changes in this system result in consequences in development and controlling of the entire organism. Decreased activity of the 5'DI, due to insufficient expression of the gene or posttranscriptional changes, causes increased T4 and rT3-levels with decreased plasma T3 content. This is observed in animals, in which a 5'DI-defect on molecular level is known. Such a defect was so far not known however with humans. A routine investigation of the 5'DI-gene in patients, where an enzyme defect could be the cause of their symptomatology, is possible by the procedure specified here under simple conditions. In this work, apart from the description of a polymorphism in the Exon 1, a potentially relevant change in the translated part of the 5'DI gene is described for the first time in human. Selected patients, whose symptoms let to the suspicion on a conversion defect for thyroid hormones, are heterozygot for a mutation in the Codon 108 in the Exon 1. The exchange of G by A results in the stop and/or SeCys Codon UGA. In the first case an approximately half shortened and thus probably nonfunctioning protein would result, in the second an enzyme most probably changed in activity, if the SECIS element in the 3' untranslated region is effective for this UGA Codon. With both variants it is to be clarified whether the defect can be partly or completely compensated by the second wild-typ allele, what makes in necessary to investigat samples from liver and kidney tissue and/or the expression of the changed gene in cell culture.

Here we present a comprehensive copy number analysis of MYCN in Wilms tumour (WT), demonstrating that gain of this gene is associated with anaplasia and with poorer relapse-free and overall survival, independent of histology. Using whole exome and gene-specific sequencing, together with methylation and expression profiling, we show that MYCN is targeted by other mechanisms, including a recurrent somatic mutation, P44L, and specific DNA hypomethylation events associated with MYCN overexpression in tumours with high risk histologies. We describe parallel evolution of genomic copy number gain and point mutation of MYCN in the contralateral tumours of a remarkable bilateral case in which independent contralateral mutations of TP53 also evolve over time. We report a second bilateral case in which MYCN gain is a germline aberration. Our results suggest a significant role for MYCN dysregulation in the molecular biology of Wilms tumour. We conclude that MYCN gain is prognostically significant, and suggest that the novel P44L somatic variant is likely to be an activating mutation.

DYSF mutations lead to a wide range of muscular phenotypes, with the most prominent being Miyoshi myopathy (MM) and limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B). Methods: We assessed the one-year-natural course of dysferlinopathy, and the safety and efficacy of deflazacort treatment in a double-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over trial. After one year of natural course without intervention, 25 patients with genetically defined dysferlinopathy were randomized to receive deflazacort and placebo for six months each (1 mg/kg/day in month one, 1 mg/kg every 2nd day during months two to six) in one of two treatment sequences. Results: During one year of natural course, muscle strength declined about 2% as measured by CIDD (Clinical Investigation of Duchenne Dystrophy) score, and 76 Newton as measured by hand-held dynamometry. Deflazacort did not improve muscle strength. In contrast, there is a trend of worsening muscle strength under deflazacort treatment, which recovers after discontinuation of the study drug. During deflazacort treatment, patients showed a broad spectrum of steroid side effects. Conclusion: Deflazacort is not an effective therapy for dysferlinopathies, and off-label use is not warranted. This is an important finding, since steroid treatment should not be administered in patients with dysferlinopathy, who may be often misdiagnosed as polymyositis.

A1 - Galehdari, Hamid T1 - A biallelic variant in CLRN2 causes non-syndromic hearing loss in humans JF - Human Genetics N2 - Deafness, the most frequent sensory deficit in humans, is extremely heterogeneous with hundreds of genes involved. Clinical and genetic analyses of an extended consanguineous family with pre-lingual, moderate-to-profound autosomal recessive sensorineural hearing loss, allowed us to identify CLRN2, encoding a tetraspan protein, as a new deafness gene. Homozygosity mapping followed by exome sequencing identified a 14.96 Mb locus on chromosome 4p15.32p15.1 containing a likely pathogenic missense variant in CLRN2 (c.494C > A, NM_001079827.2) segregating with the disease. Using in vitro RNA splicing analysis, we show that the CLRN2 c.494C > A variant leads to two events: (1) the substitution of a highly conserved threonine (uncharged amino acid) to lysine (charged amino acid) at position 165, p.(Thr165Lys), and (2) aberrant splicing, with the retention of intron 2 resulting in a stop codon after 26 additional amino acids, p.(Gly146Lysfs*26). Expression studies and phenotyping of newly produced zebrafish and mouse models deficient for clarin 2 further confirm that clarin 2, expressed in the inner ear hair cells, is essential for normal organization and maintenance of the auditory hair bundles, and for hearing function. Together, our findings identify CLRN2 as a new deafness gene, which will impact future diagnosis and treatment for deaf patients.

A1 - Ahmad, Margaret T1 - Human Cryptochrome-1 Confers Light Independent Biological Activity in Transgenic Drosophila Correlated with Flavin Radical Stability JF - PLoS One N2 - Cryptochromes are conserved flavoprotein receptors found throughout the biological kingdom with diversified roles in plant development and entrainment of the circadian clock in animals. Light perception is proposed to occur through flavin radical formation that correlates with biological activity in vivo in both plants and Drosophila. By contrast, mammalian (Type II) cryptochromes regulate the circadian clock independently of light, raising the fundamental question of whether mammalian cryptochromes have evolved entirely distinct signaling mechanisms. Here we show by developmental and transcriptome analysis that Homo sapiens cryptochrome - 1 (HsCRY1) confers biological activity in transgenic expressing Drosophila in darkness, that can in some cases be further stimulated by light. In contrast to all other cryptochromes, purified recombinant HsCRY1 protein was stably isolated in the anionic radical flavin state, containing only a small proportion of oxidized flavin which could be reduced by illumination. We conclude that animal Type I and Type II cryptochromes may both have signaling mechanisms involving formation of a flavin radical signaling state, and that light independent activity of Type II cryptochromes is a consequence of dark accumulation of this redox form in vivo rather than of a fundamental difference in signaling mechanism.

Its gene product, Sclerostin, is a key negative regulator of bone formation and might therefore serve as a target for the anabolic treatment of osteoporosis. The exact molecular mechanism by which Sclerostin exerts its antagonistic effects on Wnt signaling in bone forming osteoblasts remains unclear. Here we show that Wnt3a-induced transcriptional responses and induction of alkaline phosphatase activity, an early marker of osteoblast differentiation, require the Wnt co-receptors LRP5 and LRP6. Unlike Dickkopf1 (DKK1), Sclerostin does not inhibit Wnt-3a-induced phosphorylation of LRP5 at serine 1503 or LRP6 at serine 1490. Affinity labeling of cell surface proteins with \([^{125} I]\) Sclerostin identified LRP6 as the main specific Sclerostin receptor in multiple mesenchymal cell lines. When cells were challenged with Sclerostin fused to recombinant green fluorescent protein (GFP) this was internalized, likely via a Clathrin-dependent process, and subsequently degraded in a temperature and proteasome-dependent manner. Ectopic expression of LRP6 greatly enhanced binding and cellular uptake of Sclerostin-GFP, which was reduced by the addition of an excess of non-GFP-fused Sclerostin. Finally, an anti-Sclerostin antibody inhibited the internalization of Sclerostin-GFP and binding of Sclerostin to LRP6. Moreover, this antibody attenuated the antagonistic activity of Sclerostin on canonical Wnt-induced responses.

T1 - Copy number variants in a sample of patients with psychotic disorders: is standard screening relevant for actual clinical practice? JF - Neuropsychiatric Disease and Treatment N2 - With the introduction of new genetic techniques such as genome-wide array comparative genomic hybridization, studies on the putative genetic etiology of schizophrenia have focused on the detection of copy number variants (CNVs), ie, microdeletions and/or microduplications, that are estimated to be present in up to 3% of patients with schizophrenia. In this study, out of a sample of 100 patients with psychotic disorders, 80 were investigated by array for the presence of CNVs. The assessment of the severity of psychiatric symptoms was performed using standardized instruments and ICD-10 was applied for diagnostic classification. In three patients, a submicroscopic CNV was demonstrated, one with a loss in 1q21.1 and two with a gain in 1p13.3 and 7q11.2, respectively. The association between these or other CNVs and schizophrenia or schizophrenia-like psychoses and their clinical implications still remain equivocal. While the CNV affected genes may enhance the vulnerability for psychiatric disorders via effects on neuronal architecture, these insights have not resulted in major changes in clinical practice as yet. Therefore, genome-wide array analysis should presently be restricted to those patients in whom psychotic symptoms are paired with other signs, particularly dysmorphisms and intellectual impairment.

It determines the speed and strength of molecular oscillations by acting on transcriptional activators and their repressors, which form negative feedback loops. In Drosophila, the CK2 kinase phosphorylates and destabilizes the PERIOD (PER) and TIMELESS (TIM) proteins, which inhibit CLOCK (CLK) transcriptional activity. Here we show that CK2 also targets the CLK activator directly. Downregulating the activity of the catalytic alpha subunit of CK2 induces CLK degradation, even in the absence of PER and TIM. Unexpectedly, the regulatory beta subunit of the CK2 holoenzyme is not required for the regulation of CLK stability. In addition, downregulation of \(CK2\alpha\) activity decreases CLK phosphorylation and increases per and tim transcription. These results indicate that CK2 inhibits CLK degradation while reducing its activity. Since the CK1 kinase promotes CLK degradation, we suggest that CLK stability and transcriptional activity result from counteracting effects of CK1 and CK2.

T1 - Whole body melanoma transcriptome response in medaka JF - PLoS ONE N2 - The incidence of malignant melanoma continues to increase each year with poor prognosis for survival in many relapse cases. To reverse this trend, whole body response measures are needed to discover collaborative paths to primary and secondary malignancy. Several species of fish provide excellent melanoma models because fish and human melanocytes both appear in the epidermis, and fish and human pigment cell tumors share conserved gene expression signatures. For the first time, we have examined the whole body transcriptome response to invasive melanoma as a prelude to using transcriptome profiling to screen for drugs in a medaka (Oryzias latipes) model. We generated RNA-seq data from whole body RNA isolates for controls and melanoma fish. After testing for differential expression, 396 genes had significantly different expression (adjusted p-value <0.02) in the whole body transcriptome between melanoma and control fish; 379 of these genes were matched to human orthologs with 233 having annotated human gene symbols and 14 matched genes that contain putative deleterious variants in human melanoma at varying levels of recurrence. A detailed canonical pathway evaluation for significant enrichment showed the top scoring pathway to be antigen presentation but also included the expected melanocyte development and pigmentation signaling pathway. Results revealed a profound down-regulation of genes involved in the immune response, especially the innate immune system. We hypothesize that the developing melanoma actively suppresses the immune system responses of the body in reacting to the invasive malignancy, and that this mal-adaptive response contributes to disease progression, a result that suggests our whole-body transcriptomic approach merits further use. In these findings, we also observed novel genes not yet identified in human melanoma expression studies and uncovered known and new candidate drug targets for further testing in this malignant melanoma medaka model.

The former translocation, t(3; 14)(p13; q32), results in dysregulated expression of FOXP1 juxtaposed with strong regulatory elements of IGH. Thus far, molecular consequences of rare non-IG aberrations of FOXP1 remain undetermined. Here, using molecular cytogenetics and molecular biology studies, we comprehensively analyzed four lymphoma cases with non-IG rearrangements of FOXP1 and compared these with cases harboring t(3; 14)(p13; q32)/IGH-FOXP1 and FOXP1-expressing lymphomas with no apparent structural aberrations of the gene. Our study revealed that non-IG rearrangements of FOXP1 are usually acquired during clinical course of various lymphoma subtypes, including diffuse large B cell lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and correlate with a poor prognosis. Importantly, these aberrations constantly target the coding region of FOXP1, promiscuously fusing with coding and non-coding gene sequences at various reciprocal breakpoints (2q36, 10q24 and 3q11). The non-IG rearrangements of FOXP1, however, do not generate functional chimeric genes but commonly disrupt the full-length FOXP1 transcript leading to an aberrant expression of N-truncated FOXP1 isoforms (FOXP1NT), as shown by QRT-PCR and Western blot analysis. In contrast, t(3; 14)(p13; q32)/IGH-FOXP1 affects the 59 untranslated region of FOXP1 and results in overexpress the full-length FOXP1 protein (FOXP1FL). RNA-sequencing of a few lymphoma cases expressing FOXP1NT and FOXP1FL detected neither FOXP1-related fusions nor FOXP1 mutations. Further bioinformatic analysis of RNA-sequencing data retrieved a set of genes, which may comprise direct or non-direct targets of FOXP1NT, potentially implicated in disease progression. In summary, our findings point to a dual mechanism through which FOXP1 is implicated in B-cell lymphomagenesis. We hypothesize that the primary t(3; 14)(p13; q32)/IGH-FOXP1 activates expression of the FOXP1FL protein with potent oncogenic activity, whereas the secondary non-IG rearrangements of FOXP1 promote expression of the FOXP1NT proteins, likely driving progression of disease.
