    Abstract: Bariatric surgery (BS) results in metabolic pathway recalibration. We have identified potential biomarkers in plasma of people achieving type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remission after BS. Longitudinal analysis was performed on plasma from 10 individuals following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (n = 7) or sleeve gastrectomy (n = 3). Sequential window acquisition of all theoretical fragment ion spectra mass spectrometry (SWATH-MS) was done on samples taken at 4 months before (baseline) and 6 and 12 months after BS. Four hundred sixty-seven proteins were quantified by SWATH-MS. Principal component analysis resolved samples from distinct time points after selection of key discriminatory proteins: 25 proteins were differentially expressed between baseline and 6 months post-surgery; 39 proteins between baseline and 12 months. Eight proteins (SHBG, TF, PRG4, APOA4, LRG1, HSPA4, EPHX2 and PGLYRP) were significantly different to baseline at both 6 and 12 months post-surgery. The panel of proteins identified as consistently different included peptides related to insulin sensitivity (SHBG increase), systemic inflammation (TF and HSPA4—both decreased) and lipid metabolism (APOA4 decreased). We found significant changes in the proteome for eight proteins at 6- and 12-months post-BS, and several of these are key components in metabolic and inflammatory pathways. These may represent potential biomarkers of remission of T2DM.

    Abstract: The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily, which controls programs regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. We have identified an unexpected role for GR in mitosis. We discovered that specifically modified GR species accumulate at the mitotic spindle during mitosis in a distribution that overlaps with Aurora kinases. We found that Aurora A was required to mediate mitosis-driven GR phosphorylation, but not recruitment of GR to the spindle. GR was necessary for mitotic progression, with increased time to complete mitosis, frequency of mitotic aberrations, and death in mitosis observed following GR knockdown. Complementation studies revealed an essential role for the GR ligand-binding domain, but no clear requirement for ligand binding in regulating chromosome segregation. The GR N-terminal domain, and specifically phosphosites S203 and S211, were not required. Reduced GR expression results in a cell cycle phenotype, with isolated cells from mouse and human subjects showing changes in chromosome content over prolonged passage. Furthermore, GR haploinsufficient mice have an increased incidence of tumor formation, and, strikingly, these tumors are further depleted for GR, implying additional GR loss as a consequence of cell transformation. We identified reduced GR expression in a panel of human liver, lung, prostate, colon, and breast cancers. We therefore reveal an unexpected role for the GR in promoting accurate chromosome segregation during mitosis, which is causally linked to tumorigenesis, making GR an authentic tumor suppressor gene.

    Abstract: The transcriptional regulator EVI1 has an essential role in early development and haematopoiesis. However, acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) driven by aberrantly high EVI1 expression has very poor prognosis. To investigate the effects of post-translational modifications on EVI1 function, we carried out a mass spectrometry (MS) analysis of EVI1 in AML and detected dynamic phosphorylation at serine 436 (S436). Wild-type EVI1 (EVI1-WT) with S436 available for phosphorylation, but not non-phosphorylatable EVI1-S436A, conferred haematopoietic progenitor cell self-renewal and was associated with significantly higher organised transcriptional patterns. In silico modelling of EVI1-S436 phosphorylation showed reduced affinity to CtBP1, and CtBP1 showed reduced interaction with EVI1-WT compared with EVI1-S436A. The motif harbouring S436 is a target of CDK2 and CDK3 kinases, which interacted with EVI1-WT. The methyltransferase DNMT3A bound preferentially to EVI1-WT compared with EVI1-S436A, and a hypomethylated cell population associated by EVI1-WT expression in murine haematopoietic progenitors is not maintained with EVI1-S436A. These data point to EVI1-S436 phosphorylation directing functional protein interactions for haematopoietic self-renewal. Targeting EVI1-S436 phosphorylation may be of therapeutic benefit when treating EVI1-driven leukaemia.

    Abstract: Removal of interleukin-3 from murine IC.DP pre-mast cells results in irreversible commitment to apoptosis within 18 hours. To identify early events necessary for the engagement of apoptosis we examined the regulation of intracellular pH (pHi). IC.DP cells acidified 2 hours after removal of interleukin-3 (before discernible signs of apoptosis) and by 18 hours pHi had decreased by 0.15 units. The acidification was due to both an increase in an acid-loading process which only occurs when intracellular pH is above 6.8 and a slight reduction in H+ efflux via Na+/H+ exchange. Activation of a temperature sensitive mutant of v-Abl protein tyrosine kinase suppressed apoptosis of IC.DP cells in the absence of interleukin-3 but did not stimulate proliferation, and moreover prevented cellular acidification. Acidification of the cells by 0.2 units to pH 6.86 by complete inhibition of Na+/H+ exchange by 10 µM 5’-(N-methyl-N-isobutyl)-amiloride prevented the suppression of apoptosis by v-abl protein tyrosine kinase following IL 3 withdrawal. However in the presence of interleukin-3, addition of 10 µM 5’-(N-methyl-N-isobutyl)-amiloride only resulted in a fall of pHi to 7.17. Apoptosis did not occur and the cells continued to proliferate. Thus, in this model intracellular pH must fall below a critical value for apoptosis to occur. Together these data point to a step in cytokine deprivation induced apoptosis (at least in some haemopoietic cell types) which is either enhanced by or dependent upon an acidic intracellular environment which is the result of an increase in acid loading and inhibition of Na+/H+ exchange activity. One of the mechanisms by which activation of v-Abl protein tyrosine kinase suppresses apoptosis is by prevention of intracellular acidification.
