Interestingly, in the absence of additional genetic alterations, potentially oncogenic levels of MYC sensitise cells to a variety of apoptotic stimuli. Hence, MYC-induced apoptosis has long been recognised as a major barrier against cancer development. However, it is largely unknown how cells discriminate physiological from supraphysiological levels of MYC in order to execute an appropriate biological response. The experiments described in this thesis demonstrate that induction of apoptosis in mammary epithelial cells depends on the repressive actions of MYC/MIZ1 complexes. Analysis of gene expression profiles and ChIP-sequencing experiments reveals that high levels of MYC are required to invade low-affinity binding sites and repress target genes of the serum response factor SRF. These genes are involved in cytoskeletal dynamics as well as cell adhesion processes and are likely needed to transmit survival signals to the AKT kinase. Restoration of SRF activity rescues MIZ1- dependent gene repression and increases AKT phosphorylation and downstream function. Collectively, these results indicate that association with MIZ1 leads to an expansion of MYC’s transcriptional response that allows sensing of oncogenic levels, which points towards a tumour-suppressive role for the MYC/MIZ1 complex in epithelial cells. N2 - Eine Deregulation der MYC Expression trägt entscheidend zur malignen Transformation und Progression humaner Tumoren bei. In Abwesenheit von zusätzlichen genetischen Läsionen machen potentiell onkogene MYC Proteinmengen Zellen jedoch anfällig für eine Reihe Apoptoseauslösender Reize. Daher kann MYC-induzierte Apoptose als bedeutende tumorsuppressive Maßnahme und wichtige Barriere gegen die Entstehung von Krebs betrachtet werden. Mechanistisch unklar ist allerdings wie genau Zellen physiologische von supraphysiologischen MYC-Mengen unterscheiden um adäquat darauf reagieren zu können. Die Experimente in dieser Dissertation zeigen, dass die repressive Eigenschaft von MYC/MIZ1 Komplexen für die Induktion von Apoptose in Brustepithelzellen essentiell ist. Die Analyse von Genexpressions- und ChIP-Sequenzier-Experimenten verdeutlicht, dass hohe Level an MYC benötigt werden um niedrig-affine Bindestellen im Genom zu besetzen und Zielgene des SRF (serum response factor ) Transkriptionsfaktors zu reprimieren. Diese Gene haben eine wichtige Funktion in Prozessen wie Zytoskelettdynamik und Zelladhäsion und sind vermutlich daran beteiligt notwendige Überlebenssignale an die Kinase AKT weiterzuleiten. Eine Wiederherstellung der SRF Aktivität revertiert die MIZ1-abhängige Repression der Zielgene und führt zu einer vermehrten AKT Phosphorylierung und Funktion. Insgesamt deuten diese Resultate auf eine tumorsuppressive Rolle des MYC/MIZ1 Komplexes in epithelialen Zellen hin, da eine Veränderung der genregulatorischen Aktivität als Folge der Assoziation mit MIZ1 dazu beiträgen könnte onkogene Mengen an MYC zu erkennen.

CIP2A is overexpressed in several tumours, and expression levels are an independent marker for long-term outcome. To determine whether CIP2A expression is elevated in colon cancer and whether it might serve as a prognostic marker for survival, we analysed CIP2A mRNA expression by real-time PCR in 104 colon cancer samples. CIP2A mRNA was overexpressed in colon cancer samples and CIP2A expression levels correlated significantly with tumour stage. We found that CIP2A serves as an independent prognostic marker for disease-free and overall survival. Further, we investigated CIP2A-dependent effects on levels of c-Myc, Akt and on cell proliferation in three colon cancer cell lines by silencing CIP2A using small interfering (si) and short hairpin (sh) RNAs. Depletion of CIP2A substantially inhibited growth of colon cell lines and reduced c-Myc levels without affecting expression or function of the upstream regulatory kinase, Akt. Expression of CIP2A was found to be dependent on MAPK activity, linking elevated c-Myc expression to deregulated signal transduction in colon cancer.

The mainstay of chemotherapy treatment of CRC is 5-fluorouracil (5FU) and oxaliplatin. The two anticancer drugs mediate their therapeutic effect via DNA damage-triggered signaling. The small molecule reactivating p53 and inducing tumor apoptosis (RITA) is described as an activator of wild-type and reactivator of mutant p53 function, resulting in elevated levels of p53 protein, cell growth arrest, and cell death. Additionally, it has been shown that RITA can induce DNA damage signaling. It is expected that the therapeutic benefits of 5FU and oxaliplatin can be increased by enhancing DNA damage signaling pathways. Therefore, we highlighted the antiproliferative response of RITA alone and in combination with 5FU or oxaliplatin in human CRC cells. A panel of long-term established CRC cell lines (n = 9) including p53 wild-type, p53 mutant, and p53 null and primary patient-derived, low-passage cell lines (n = 5) with different p53 protein status were used for this study. A substantial number of CRC cells with pronounced sensitivity to RITA (IC\(_{50}\)< 3.0 μmol/l) were identified within established (4/9) and primary patient-derived (2/5) CRC cell lines harboring wild-type or mutant p53 protein. Sensitivity to RITA appeared independent of p53 status and was associated with an increase in antiproliferative response to 5FU and oxaliplatin, a transcriptional increase of p53 targets p21 and NOXA, and a decrease in MYC mRNA. The effect of RITA as an inducer of DNA damage was shown by a strong elevation of phosphorylated histone variant H2A.X, which was restricted to RITA-sensitive cells. Our data underline the primary effect of RITA, inducing DNA damage, and demonstrate the differential antiproliferative effect of RITA to CRC cells independent of p53 protein status. We found a substantial number of RITA-sensitive CRC cells within both panels of established CRC cell lines and primary patient-derived CRC cell lines (6/14) that provide a rationale for combining RITA with 5FU or oxaliplatin to enhance the antiproliferative response to both chemotherapeutic agents.

Here, we focused on the multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor E7080 (Lenvatinib) and assessed its therapeutic efficacy against human CRC cell lines in vitro and human CRC xenografts in vivo. The effect of E7080 on cell viability was examined on 10 humanCRCcell lines and humanendothelial cells (HUVEC). The inhibitory effect of E7080 on VEGF-induced angiogenesis was studied in an ex vivo mouse aortic ring angiogenesis assay. In addition, the efficacy of E7080 against xenografts derived fromCRC cell lines and CRC patient resection specimenswithmutated KRASwas investigated in vivo. Arelatively low cytotoxic effect of E7080 on CRC cell viabilitywas observed in vitro. Endothelial cells (HUVEC)weremore susceptible to the incubation with E7080. This is in line with the observation that E7080 demonstrated an anti-angiogenic effect in a three-dimensional ex vivo mouse aortic ring angiogenesis assay. E7080 effectively disrupted CRC cell-mediated VEGF-stimulated growth of HUVEC in vitro. Daily in vivo treatment with E7080 (5 mg/kg) significantly delayed the growth of KRAS mutated CRC xenografts with decreased density of tumor-associated vessel formations and without tumor regression. This observation is in line with results that E7080 did not significantly reduce the number of Ki67-positive cells in CRC xenografts. The results suggest antiangiogenic activity of E7080 at a dosage thatwas well tolerated by nudemice. E7080 may provide therapeutic benefits in the treatment of CRC with mutated KRAS.

It remains unclear in which way these approaches overall influenced the rate of local recurrence and overall survival. Methods Clinical, histological and survival data of 658 out of 662 consecutive patients with RC were analyzed for treatment and prognostic factors from a prospectively expanded single-institutional database. Findings were then stratified according to time of diagnosis in patient groups treated between 1993 and 2001 and 2002 and 2010. Results The study population included 658 consecutive patients with rectal cancer between 1993 and 2010. Follow up data was available for 99.6% of all 662 treated patients. During the time period between 2002 and 2010 significantly more patients underwent neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (17.6% vs. 60%) and adjuvant chemotherapy (37.9% vs. 58.4%). Also, the rate of reported TME during surgery increased. The rate of local or distant metastasis decreased over time, and tumor related 5-year survival increased significantly with from 60% to 79%. Conclusion In our study population, the implementation of treatment changes over the last decade improved the patient’s outcome significantly. Improvements were most evident for UICC stage III rectal cancer.

T1 - Genetic Dissection of Aversive Associative Olfactory Learning and Memory in Drosophila Larvae JF - PLoS Genetics N2 - Memory formation is a highly complex and dynamic process. It consists of different phases, which depend on various neuronal and molecular mechanisms. In adult Drosophila it was shown that memory formation after aversive Pavlovian conditioning includes—besides other forms—a labile short-term component that consolidates within hours to a longer-lasting memory. Accordingly, memory formation requires the timely controlled action of different neuronal circuits, neurotransmitters, neuromodulators and molecules that were initially identified by classical forward genetic approaches. Compared to adult Drosophila, memory formation was only sporadically analyzed at its larval stage. Here we deconstruct the larval mnemonic organization after aversive olfactory conditioning. We show that after odor-high salt conditioning larvae form two parallel memory phases; a short lasting component that depends on cyclic adenosine 3’5’-monophosphate (cAMP) signaling and synapsin gene function. In addition, we show for the first time for Drosophila larvae an anesthesia resistant component, which relies on radish and bruchpilot gene function, protein kinase C activity, requires presynaptic output of mushroom body Kenyon cells and dopamine function. Given the numerical simplicity of the larval nervous system this work offers a unique prospect for studying memory formation of defined specifications, at full-brain scope with single-cell, and single-synapse resolution.

This study aimed to analyze postoperative inflammation status, short-term outcome and cost-effectiveness of robotic-assisted versus laparoscopic left hemicolectomy. All consecutive patients who received minimal-invasive left hemicolectomy at the Department of Surgery I at the University Hospital of Wuerzburg in 2021 were prospectively included. Importantly, no patient selection for either procedure was carried out. The robotic-assisted versus laparoscopic approaches were compared head to head for postoperative short-term outcomes as well as cost-effectiveness. A total of 61 patients were included, with 26 patients having received a robotic-assisted approach. Baseline characteristics did not differ among the groups. Patients receiving a robotic-assisted approach had a significantly decreased length of hospital stay as well as lower rates of complications in comparison to patients who received laparoscopic surgery (n = 35). In addition, C-reactive protein as a marker of systemic stress response was significantly reduced postoperatively in patients who were operated on in a robotic-assisted manner. Consequently, robotic-assisted surgery could be performed in a cost-effective manner. Thus, robotic-assisted left hemicolectomy represents a safe and cost-effective procedure and might improve patient outcomes in comparison to laparoscopic surgery.

In früheren Arbeiten konnte gezeigt werden, dass der TNFR2 sowohl durch die Induktion von membrangebundenem TNF als auch durch die proteasomale Degradation von TRAF2 (TNFRezeptor-assozierter Faktor 2) die TNFR1-vermittelte Apoptose verstärken kann. Des Weiteren war bekannt, dass TRAF1 (TNFRezeptor-assozierter Faktor 1), ein anderes Mitglied der TRAF-Familie, mit TRAF2 Heterotrimere bilden kann und zudem nach TNF-induzierter NFkappaB- (nuclear factor kappaB) Aktivierung verstärkt exprimiert wird. In der vorliegenden Arbeit konnte nun erstmals gezeigt werden, dass TRAF1 in beide TNFR-Signalkomplexe rekrutiert wird und darin in einem TRAF2/TRAF1-Heterotrimer TRAF2 funktionell ersetzen kann. Darüber hinaus verhindert TRAF1 die Rekrutierung von TRAF2 in lipid rafts sowie dessen anschließende proteasomale Degradation. Auf diese Weise kann TRAF1 die TNFR2-abhängige Verstärkung der TNFR1-induzierten Apoptose verhindern. Im zweiten Teil der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde die TNF-vermittelte Aktivierung der JNK (c-Jun N-terminale Kinase), dessen Regulation durch ROS (reactive oxygen species), Caspasen (Cysteinyl-Aspartat-spezifische Proteasen) sowie NFkappaB-induzierte Faktoren untersucht. TNF induziert in den meisten Zellen zunächst nach zehn bis 30 Minuten eine transiente JNK-Aktivierung, woraufhin bei NFkB-inhibierten Zellen eine zweite andauernde JNK-Aktivierung folgt. Die meisten in der Literatur beschriebenen Studien gehen dabei von einem ROS-abhängigen, Caspase-unabhängigen Mechanismus der persistierenden JNK-Aktivierung aus. Des Weiteren wurde in den vor allem bei embryonale Mausfibroblasten durchgeführten Untersuchungen davon ausgegangen, dass bestimmte NFkappaB-induzierte Radikalfänger die andauernde Aktivierung der JNK verhindern. In dieser Arbeit konnte gezeigt werden, dass in den humanen Zelllinien KB, Jurkat und HaCaT die andauernde Aktivierung der JNK, im Gegensatz zur transienten JNK-Aktivierung, Caspase-abhängig verläuft. Es ergab sich überdies, dass die inhibierende Wirkung des NFkB-Signalweges auf die persistierende JNK-Aktivierung in diesen Zelllinien in erster Linie auf die indirekte Verhinderung der Apoptose durch die Induktion von antiapoptotischen Proteinen wie Flip-L (FLICE-inhibitory protein long) und IAPs (inhibitor of apoptosis) zurückzuführen ist, als auf die direkte Expression von Radikalfängern. Zudem wurde in den untersuchten Zelllinien die Caspase-vermittelte Spaltung von MEKK-1 (MAP/ERK kinase kinase-1) und p21WAF/Cip 1 nachgewiesen, von denen bekannt ist, dass die Spaltprodukte eine JNK-stimulierende Wirkung haben. Dennoch müssen künftige Studien zeigen, ob die Spaltung von p21WAF/Cip 1 und MEKK-1 in Fragmente mit JNK–stimulierender Aktivität oder andere Caspasesubstrate für die Caspase-vermittelte andauernde Aktivierung der JNK verantwortlich sind. N2 - TNF (tumor necrosis factor) induces its biological functions by interactions with TNFR1 (TNF receptor 1) and TNFR2 (TNF receptor 2). In recent studies it has been shown that stimulation of TNFR2 results in an enhancement of the TNFR1-induced apoptosis. The reason of this finding is the transcriptional induction of membrane-bound TNF as well as the proteasomal degradation of TRAF2 (TNF receptor associated factor 2). Furthermore it was known that TRAF1 (TNF receptor associated factor 1), those expression is induced by TNF mediated NFkB (nuclear factor kappaB) activation, can interact with TRAF2. In the first part of this thesis it could be demonstrated that TRAF1 co-recruits with TRAF2 to TNFR1 and TNFR2 without affecting the downstream signalling pathways. Moreover, TRAF1 expression inhibits TNFR2 induced recruitment of TRAF2 into lipid rafts and its subsequent depletion. In this manner, TRAF1 abrogates the TNFR2-mediated enhancement of TNFR1-induced apoptosis. In the second part of this thesis the TNF-induced activation of JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase) as well as its regulation by ROS (reactive oxygen species), caspases (cysteinyl-aspartat-specific proteases) and NFkB-induced proteins were examined. In most cell types TNF induces a transient activation of the JNK pathway, whereas in NFkB-inhibited cells a second sustained activation of JNK is observed. Based on previous studies, it has been suggested that TNF-induced prolonged JNK activation is predominantly mediated by ROS. Moreover, in some studies based on mouse embryonal fibroblasts it has been suggested that expression of NFkB-induced antioxidants prevents prolonged JNK activation upon TNF stimulation. In this thesis it could be shown in various human cellular systems, including KB, Jurkat and HaCaT, that TNF-induced prolonged activation of JNK is in contrast to the transient activation mediated by caspases. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that NFkB induction inhibits the TNF-induced prolonged JNK activation indirectly by inhibiting apoptosis rather than directly by expression of antioxidants. In addition, caspase-dependent cleavage of MEKK-1 (MAP/ERK kinase kinase-1) and p21WAF/Cip 1 was found in these cellular systems. As it is known from previous studies, cleavage of these proteins results in fragments with high JNK-stimulating activity, these caspase substrates could therefore play an important role in TNF-induced prolonged JNK-activation. However, further studies have to evaluate if the cleavage of MEKK-1 and p21WAF/Cip 1 or other caspase substrates mediates the TNF-induced caspase-dependent prolonged JNK-activation.

Here, we unravel the complete viral transcriptome and translatome during lytic infection with base-pair resolution by computational integration of multi-omics data. We identify a total of 201 transcripts and 284 ORFs including all known and 46 novel large ORFs. This includes a so far unknown ORF in the locus deleted in the FDA-approved oncolytic virus Imlygic. Multiple transcript isoforms expressed from individual gene loci explain translation of the vast majority of ORFs as well as N-terminal extensions (NTEs) and truncations. We show that NTEs with non-canonical start codons govern the subcellular protein localization and packaging of key viral regulators and structural proteins. We extend the current nomenclature to include all viral gene products and provide a genome browser that visualizes all the obtained data from whole genome to single-nucleotide resolution. Here, using computational integration of multi-omics data, the authors provide a detailed transcriptome and translatome of herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1), including previously unidentified ORFs and N-terminal extensions. The study also provides a HSV-1 genome browser and should be a valuable resource for further research.
