In normal endometrial glandular epithelial cells (GEC), 17β-estradiol (E2) enhances proliferation and c-fos expression only in the presence of growth factors. On the contrary, growth factors are not required for the E2 effects in cancerous cells. Thus, a repression of E2 action could exist in normal cells and be turned off in cancerous cells, allowing a direct estrogen-dependent proliferation. To verify this hypothesis, we established immortalized and transformed cell models, then investigated alterations of E2 effects during oncogenesis. SV40 large T-antigen was used to generate immortalized GEC model (IGEC). After observation of telomerase reactivation, IGEC model was transfected by activated c-Ha-ras to obtain transformed cell lines (TGEC1 and TGEC2). The phenotypic, morphological, and genetic characteristics of these models were determined before studying the E2 effects. In IGEC, the E2 action on proliferation and c-fos expression required the presence of growth factors, as observed in GECs. In TGECs, this action arose in the absence of growth factors. After IGEC transformation, the activation of ras pathway would substitute the priming events required for the release of repression in GEC and IGEC and thus permit direct E2 effects. Our cell models are particularly suitable to investigate alterations of gene regulation by E2 during oncogenesis. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Background: Non-Negative Matrix factorization has become an essential tool for feature extraction in a wide spectrum of applications. In the present work, our objective is to extend the applicability of the method to the case of missing and/or corrupted data due to outliers. Results: An essential property for missing data imputation and detection of outliers is that the uncorrupted data matrix is low rank, i.e. has only a small number of degrees of freedom. We devise a new version of the Bregman proximal idea which preserves nonnegativity and mix it with the Augmented Lagrangian approach for simultaneous reconstruction of the features of interest and detection of the outliers using a sparsity promoting l1 penality. Conclusions: An application to the analysis of gene expression data of patients with bladder cancer is finally proposed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The QSOX1 protein (Quiescin Sulfhydryl oxidase 1) catalyzes the formation of disulfide bonds and is involved in the folding and stability of proteins. More recently, QSOX1 has been associated with tumorigenesis and protection against cellular stress. It has been demonstrated in our laboratory that QSOX1 reduces proliferation, migration and invasion of breast cancer cells in vitro and reduces tumor growth in vivo. In addition, QSOX1 expression has been shown to be induced by oxidative or ER stress and to prevent cell death linked to these stressors. Given the function of QSOX1 in these two processes, which have been previously linked to autophagy, we wondered whether QSOX1 might be regulated by autophagy inducers and play a role in this catabolic process. To answer this question, we used in vitro models of breast cancer cells in which QSOX1 was overexpressed (MCF-7) or extinguished (MDA-MB-231). We first showed that QSOX1 expression is induced following amino acid starvation and maintains cellular homeostasis. Our results also indicated that QSOX1 inhibits autophagy through the inhibition of autophagosome/lysosome fusion. Moreover, we demonstrated that inhibitors of autophagy mimic the effect of QSOX1 on cell invasion, suggesting that its role in this process is linked to the autophagy pathway. Previously published data demonstrated that extinction of QSOX1 promotes tumor growth in NOG mice. In this study, we further demonstrated that QSOX1 null tumors present lower levels of the p62 protein. Altogether, our results demonstrate for the first time a role of QSOX1 in autophagy in breast cancer cells and tumors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Macroautophagy is a highly conserved cellular degradation process, regulated by autophagy-related (atg) factors, in which a double membrane autophagosome engulfs cytoplasmic components to target them for degradation. In yeast, the Atg8 protein is indispensable for autophagosome formation. In mammals, this is complicated by the presence of six Atg8 homologues grouped into the GABARAP and MAP1LC3 subfamilies. Although these proteins share a high similarity, their transcript expression, regulation and protein interactions differ, suggesting they may display individual properties and specific functions. GABARAPL1/GEC1 is a member of the GABARAP subfamily and its mRNA is the most highly expressed Atg8 homologue in the central nervous system. Consequently, we performed an in depth study of GABARAPL1 distribution in the developing and adult murine brain. Our results show that GABARAPL1 brain expression is visible as early as embryonic day 11 and progressively increases to a maximum level in the adult. Immunohistochemical staining was detected in both fibers and immature neurons in embryos but was restrained to neurons in adult tissue. By E17, intense punctate-like structures were visible and these accumulated in cortical primary neurons treated with the autophagosome/lysosome fusion inhibitor Bafilomycin A1 (Baf A1), suggesting that they represent autophagosomes. Finally, GABARAPL1 expression was particularly intense in motoneurons in the embryo and in neurons involved in somatomotor and neuroendocrine functions in the adult, particularly in the substantia nigra pars compacta, a region affected in Parkinson's disease. Our study of cerebral GABARAPL1 protein expression provides insight into its role in the development and homeostasis of the mouse brain. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: GABARAPL1 belongs to the small family of GABARAP proteins (including GABARAP, GABARAPL1 and GABARAPL2/GATE-16), one of the two subfamilies of the yeast Atg8 orthologue. GABARAPL1 is involved in the intracellular transport of receptors, via an interaction with tubulin and GABAA or kappa opioid receptors, and also participates in autophagy and cell proliferation. In the present study, we identify the HSP90 protein as a novel interaction partner for GABARAPL1 using GST pull-down, mass spectrometry and coimmunoprecipitation experiments. GABARAPL1 and HSP90 partially colocalize in MCF-7 breast cancer cells overexpressed Dsred-GABARAPL1 and in rat brain. Moreover, treatment of MCF-7 cells overexpressed FLAG-GABARAPL1-6HIS with the HSP90 inhibitor 17-AAG promotes the GABARAPL1 degradation, a process that is blocked by proteasome inhibitors such as MG132, bortezomib and lactacystin. Accordingly, we demonstrate that HSP90 interacts and protects GABARAPL1 from its degradation by the proteasome. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: GEC1 protein shares high identity with GABARAP (GABAA Receptor-Associated Protein), interacts with tubulin and GABAA receptors and is potentially involved in intracellular transport processes. Recently, using quantitative real time PCR, we have reported the gec1 mRNA expression in different rat brain areas. In the present study, we investigated the cell types expressing gec1 in rat brain. Sense and anti-sense gec1 RNA probes, corresponding to the 3′-untranslated region, were generated. In northern blotting experiments, the anti-sense probe revealed only the 1.75 kb gec1 mRNAs. On the other hand, in immunohistochemistry experiments, GEC1 polyclonal antibodies did not discriminate between GEC1 and GABARAP proteins. Therefore, we used digoxigenin-labeled RNA probes for in situ hybridization (ISH) experiments to map the gec1 expression. Using the anti-sense probe, we detected the gec1 mRNAs specifically in neurons throughout the rostrocaudal extent of the brain as well as in the spinal cord. Although a majority of neurons expressed the gec1 mRNAs, different intensities of labeling were observed depending on the areas: the strongest labeling was observed in the isocortex, hippocampus, basal telencephalon, some thalamic and most of hypothalamic nuclei, cerebellum, and numerous brainstem nuclei. Furthermore, the gec1 mRNAs were intensely expressed in neurons involved in somatomotor and neuroendocrine functions and weakly expressed in sensory and reticular structures. These results corroborate the putative role of the GEC1 protein in the trafficking of receptor GABAA. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: The QSOX1 protein, belonging to a new class of FAD-linked Quiescin/Sulfhydryl oxidase, catalyzes disulfide bond formation. To give new insight into the biological function of QSOX1, we studied its involvement in oxidative stress-induced apoptosis and cell recovery of PC12 cells. By real time RT-PCR and flow cytometric analysis, we show that the QSOX1 mRNA and protein levels increased late after the beginning of oxidative treatment and were sustained for 72 h. These levels were still high when the PC12 cells were not dying but had resumed proliferation. The kinetics of QSOX1 expression suggest a more protective effect of QSOX1 rather than an involvement of this protein in apoptosis. Human breast cancer MCF-7 cell lines overexpressing the guinea pig QSOX1 protein submitted to the same treatments appeared less sensitive to cell death than the MCF-7 control cells. The protective effect is partly due to a preservation of the mitochondrial polarization generally lost after an oxidative stress. These results strengthen our hypothesis of a protective role of QSOX1 against apoptosis. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: Flavoproteins of the quiescin/sulfhydryl oxidase (QSOX) family catalyze oxidation of peptide and protein thiols to disulfides with the reduction of oxygen to hydrogen peroxide. We report here the molecular cloning of a new putative sulfhydryl oxidase cDNA, rQSOX-L (GenBank Accession no AY623665), from adult rat brain and its expression studied by RT-PCR, Northern and Western blots in rat tissues. DNA-sequencing demonstrated the existence of two cDNAs in rat cortex, corresponding to a long transcript (rQSOX-L) and a short transcript (rQSOX-S) which differed by 851 nucleotides due to alternative splicing. The new transcript, rQSOX-L (3356 nucleotides), was specifically expressed in brain, hypophysis, heart, testis and seminal vesicle. The distribution of this variant is not homogeneous in the different tissues studied and suggests a complex gene regulation. The full-length rQSOX-L cDNA has an open reading frame of 2250-bp encoding a protein of 750 amino acids that contains a signal peptide sequence, a protein-disulfide-isomerase-type thioredoxin and ERV1-ALR domains and a long form specific C-terminal extension. The rQSOX-L protein is highly homologous to members of the sulfhydryl oxidase/Quiescin family and contains particularly two potential sites for N-glycosylation. This protein isoform was specifically detected in rat brain tissues in opposition to the low molecular form that was ubiquitous. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry analysis of the immunoprecipitate tryptic fragments allowed the identification of rQSOX-L protein.

Abstract: The gec1/GABARAPL1 (GABA A -receptor-associated protein like-1) gene has been identified as an early estrogen-regulated gene in guinea-pig cultured endometrial glandular epithelial cells (GEC). Guinea-pig and human gec1/GABARAPL1 proteins share 87% identity with GABARAP, which acts as a protein linker between microtubules and the GABAA receptor. To investigate the molecular mechanisms regulating gec1/GABARAPL1 gene expression, the 1.5-kbp region upstream of the translation initiation codon of the guinea-pig gec1/GABARAPL1 gene was cloned. A 300-bp fragment encompassing a pyrimidine-rich initiator element (INR) and the transcription start site (+1) was sufficient to initiate transcription. Transfection and gel shift experiments showed that a sequence located at +36/+50 in the first exon permitted induction of expression of this gene by estradiol acting via ERα. This sequence (GGGTCAACGTGACGT) differs only by one base pair from the consensus estrogen response element ERE (GGGTCAACGTGACCT). It can be concluded that the ERE located in the first exon encoding the 5′-untranslated region is sufficient for E2 activation of gec1/GABARAPL1 transcription. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

We have previously identified in uterine cells a novel estrogen-regulated gene called gec1. GEC1 presents 87% identity with GABARAP which, so far, was the only protein found to associate with tubulin and GABAA receptor. We demonstrated then that GEC1 interacts in vitro with tubulin and GABAA receptor, and promotes tubulin assembly and microtubule bundling. Since all polyclonal antibodies failed in discrimination of both proteins GEC1 and GABARAP, a GEC1-GFP fusion protein was used to specifically localize GEC1. GEC1-GFP was distributed over the cytoplasm in perinuclear vesicles with a scattered pattern. Overall, our data show that GEC1 could be a new member of the GABARAP family involved in the transport of GABAA receptor. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

GABARAP and gec1/GABARAPL1 genes encode very similar proteins belonging to a new microtubule-associated protein (MAP) family. These proteins could participate in a complex clustering, targeting and/or degrading the GABAA receptors on post-synaptic membrane of neurons. Using specific cDNA probes, we investigated the differential expression of both genes in 76 human tissues. Against all odds, gec1/GABARAPL1 was more expressed than GABARAP in the central nervous system (CNS), while GABARAP was more expressed in endocrine glands. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
