Abstract

It is often implicitly assumed that seabirds migrate using marine environments, but this assumption is increasingly being challenged by electronic tracking data. The arrival and departure routes of Arctic Terns breeding on the North Sea coast of the United Kingdom (UK) are unknown but there has been speculation about the possibility of overland migration. Analysis of light‐level geolocator data from birds breeding on the Farne Islands suggests that these birds arrived and left their North Sea colony overland via the Irish Sea, rather than taking coastal routes along the east coast of the UK and through the English Channel. In addition, some departing birds may enter the North Atlantic by crossing Ireland rather than through the Irish Sea. The direction of arrival in spring had a more southerly orientation than the direction of autumn departure. The geolocator data allow migration phenology in relation to breeding to be defined and indicated that the birds arrived around 15 days before the first eggs were laid in the colony. Departure timing may be determined by seasonal progression and not markedly influenced by breeding success. This study supports the idea that overland migration may be a more widespread and consistent strategy for seabirds than has been realized. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

11. Change in body mass during breeding in Barn Swallows Hirundo rustica.

Author

Myers, Geoff W. and Redfern, Chris P. F.

Abstract

Capsule The body mass of female Barn Swallows (Hirundo rustica) varies cyclically in relation to breeding attempts within breeding seasons. Aim To determine whether body mass declines in relation to the progress of incubation in female and male Barn Swallows and whether this differs between breeding attempts within a season. Methods Adult Swallows were caught and ringed at breeding sites as part of a long-term study to estimate survival rates. Measurements of body mass and size at the time of ringing were analysed in relation to the start of incubation, defined from detailed observations of the progress of breeding at each site. Results Wing length, hour of weighing, and time from the start of incubation contributed significantly to variation in female body mass. Body mass peaked 3 days before the start of incubation and declined linearly by 0.115 g per day during incubation and brood rearing in both breeding attempts within a season. For males, body mass declined by 0.026 g per day from the start of incubation during the first breeding attempt, but this was not apparent for the smaller sample of males in the second breeding attempt, possibly because such breeding-related changes may be masked by premigratory increases in mass later in the breeding season. Conclusion The body mass of female Swallows varied cyclically during the breeding season in relation to breeding attempts and there were clear differences between male and female Swallows in the magnitude of body mass changes as breeding progressed.

Abstract

Targeting endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced apoptosis may offer an alternative therapeutic strategy for metastatic melanoma. Fenretinide and bortezomib induce apoptosis of melanoma cells but their efficacy may be hindered by the unfolded protein response, which promotes survival by ameliorating endoplasmic reticulum stress. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that inhibition of GRP78, a vital unfolded protein response mediator, increases cell death in combination with endoplasmic reticulum stress-inducing agents. Down-regulation of GRP78 by small-interfering RNA increased fenretinide- or bortezomib-induced apoptosis. Treatment of cells with a GRP78-specific subtilase toxin produced a synergistic enhancement with fenretinide or bortezomib. These data suggest that combining endoplasmic reticulum stress-inducing agents with strategies to down-regulate GRP78, or other components of the unfolded protein response, may represent a novel therapeutic approach for metastatic melanoma.

*PASSERIFORMES, *BODY weight, *BIRD breeding, *PHENOLOGY
Abstract

The article discusses a study on whether female body mass of passerines varies in relation to brood-patch (BP) stage. Ringing data for migrant and resident species from north-east England were analyzed to identify general trends in body-mass variations associated to differences in breeding phenology. Data from birds caught using mist nets between 1988 and 2008 were analyzed. It suggests that BP scores are based on morphological criteria and an appropriate statistical model with a larger data set of BP scores can quantify variations in breeding phenology.

Subjects
*BIRD migration, *BIRD banding, *BIOMARKERS, *ISOTOPES, *GENETIC markers, *TRACE elements
Abstract

The article focuses on the significance of intrinsic markers such as stable isotope ratios (SIRs), trace element, and genetic markers as new techniques in the study of bird migration. It notes that bird ringing is a vital tool in studying and explaining the patterns of bird migration. However, only few of millions of ringed birds are recovered. Moreover, SIRs show enormous potential in the study of avian migration though the interpretation are complicated.

15. From individuals to flyways: the future of marking birds for conservation.

Author

Baille, Stephen R., Robinson, Robert A., Clark, Jacquie A., and Redfern, Chris P. F.

Subjects
BIRD surveys, COLLECTION & preservation of birds, WILDLIFE conservation, GLOBAL environmental change
Abstract

The article presents a study which identifies some of the key opportunities and challenges that must be prioritized by large-scale bird-making programmes in the next 10 to 20 years in the British and Irish Ringing Scheme. It mentions various issues such as the global environmental change and disease control. It also states that the technologies for bird studies have capabilities to facilitate study designs that require fewer birds to be marked, and provides rapid collation, sharing, and analysis.

16. Relevance of Nonsynonymous CYP2C8 Polymorphisms to 13-cis Retinoic Acid and Paclitaxel Hydroxylation

Author

Rowbotham, Sophie E., Boddy, Alan V., Redfern, Chris P. F., Veal, Gareth J., and Daly, Ann K.

Abstract

CYP2C8 has a major role in the metabolism of the anticancer agents 13-cis retinoic acid (13cisRA) and paclitaxel. There is evidence that polymorphisms in the CYP2C8 gene contribute to observed interindividual differences in paclitaxel metabolism. However, no studies have been performed to determine the relevance of CYP2C8 polymorphisms to 13cisRA metabolism. In the current study, the effect of two common nonsynonymous CYP2C8 polymorphisms, CYP2C8*3 (R139K and K399R) and *4 (I264M), on the metabolism of 13cisRA and paclitaxel was examined using an Escherichia coli expression system with coexpression of human cytochrome P450 reductase. No statistically significant differences in the level of 13cisRA 4-hydroxylase activity were associated with either CYP2C8 allelic variant compared with the wild-type CYP2C8.1 enzyme. Furthermore, no differences were observed for the CYP2C8.3 or CYP2C8.4 enzymes with respect to paclitaxel 6α-hydroxylase kinetics compared with wild-type CYP2C8.1. However, when the effects of the individual polymorphisms making up the CYP2C8*3 allele were considered, a significantly lower level of paclitaxel 6α-hydroxylase activity was associated with the K399R enzyme. A lower level of activity was also seen for the R139K enzyme, although this difference was not significant. No differences were observed with respect to 13cisRA 4-hydroxylase activity. We conclude that common CYP2C8 polymorphisms are unlikely to explain reported interindividual variation in 13cisRA or paclitaxel pharmacokinetics.

Abstract

Vitamin A and derivatives, the natural retinoids, underpin signaling pathways of cellular differentiation, and are key chromophores in vision. These functions depend on transfer across membranes, and carrier proteins to shuttle retinoids to specific cell compartments. Natural retinoids, ultimately derived from plant carotenoids by metabolism to all-trans retinol, are lipophilic and consist of a cyclohexenyl (β-ionone) moiety linked to a polyene chain. This structure constrains the orientation of retinoids within lipid membranes. Cis-trans isomerization at double bonds of the polyene chain and s-cis/s-trans rotational isomerization at single bonds define the functional dichotomy of retinoids (signaling/vision) and specificities of interactions with specific carrier proteins and receptors. Metabolism of all-trans retinol to 11-cis retinal, transfer to photoreceptors, and removal and recycling of all-trans retinal generated by photoreceptor irradiation, is the key process underlying vision. All-trans retinol transferred into cells is metabolized to all-trans retinoic acid and shuttled to the cell nucleus to regulate gene expression controlling organ, tissue and cell differentiation, and cellular homeostasis. Research methods need to address the potential of photoisomerization in vitro to confound research results, and data should be interpreted in the context of membrane-association properties of retinoids and physiological concentrations in vivo. Despite a century of research, there are many fundamental questions of retinoid cellular biochemistry and molecular biology still to be answered. Computational modeling techniques will have an important role for understanding the nuances of vitamin A signaling and function., (© 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)

Abstract

Glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) is a stress sensor which interacts with unfolded protein response (UPR) activators in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that GRP78 has distinct functional roles in mediating the effects of ER stress in neuroblastoma compared to other neuroectodermal cancer types. GRP78 was knocked down or overexpressed in neuroectodermal tumor cell lines. Protein and transcript expression were measured using Western blotting, confocal microscopy, and real-time polymerase chain reaction; cell stress was assessed by measurement of oxidative stress and accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins and cell response by measurement of apoptosis and cell viability. Neuroblastoma cells were more sensitive to ER stress than melanoma and glioblastoma cells. GRP78 knockdown increased stress sensitivity of melanoma and glioblastoma cells, but not neuroblastoma cells. Over-expression of GRP78 decreased the stress sensitivity of melanoma and glioblastoma cells but, in contrast, increased the stress sensitivity of neuroblastoma cells by activation of caspase-3-independent cell death and substantially increased the expression of UPR activators, particularly inositol-requiring element 1 (IRE1). The results from this study suggest that cell-type specific differences in the relationships between GRP78 and the UPR activators, particularly IRE1, may determine differential sensitivity to ER stress., (© 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.)

Abstract

Background: Medulloblastomas, the most frequent malignant brain tumours affecting children, comprise at least 4 distinct clinicogenetic subgroups. Aberrant sonic hedgehog (SHH) signalling is observed in approximately 25% of tumours and defines one subgroup. Although alterations in SHH pathway genes (e.g. PTCH1, SUFU) are observed in many of these tumours, high throughput genomic analyses have identified few other recurring mutations. Here, we have mutagenised the Ptch+/- murine tumour model using the Sleeping Beauty transposon system to identify additional genes and pathways involved in SHH subgroup medulloblastoma development., Results: Mutagenesis significantly increased medulloblastoma frequency and identified 17 candidate cancer genes, including orthologs of genes somatically mutated (PTEN, CREBBP) or associated with poor outcome (PTEN, MYT1L) in the human disease. Strikingly, these candidate genes were enriched for transcription factors (p=2x10-5), the majority of which (6/7; Crebbp, Myt1L, Nfia, Nfib, Tead1 and Tgif2) were linked within a single regulatory network enriched for genes associated with a differentiated neuronal phenotype. Furthermore, activity of this network varied significantly between the human subgroups, was associated with metastatic disease, and predicted poor survival specifically within the SHH subgroup of tumours. Igf2, previously implicated in medulloblastoma, was the most differentially expressed gene in murine tumours with network perturbation, and network activity in both mouse and human tumours was characterised by enrichment for multiple gene-sets indicating increased cell proliferation, IGF signalling, MYC target upregulation, and decreased neuronal differentiation., Conclusions: Collectively, our data support a model of medulloblastoma development in SB-mutagenised Ptch+/- mice which involves disruption of a novel transcription factor network leading to Igf2 upregulation, proliferation of GNPs, and tumour formation. Moreover, our results identify rational therapeutic targets for SHH subgroup tumours, alongside prognostic biomarkers for the identification of poor-risk SHH patients.

Abstract

Despite the successful introduction of 13-cis retinoic acid (13cisRA) therapy for the treatment of neuroblastoma, approximately 50% patients do not respond or experience relapse. A retinoid analogue, fenretinide [N-(4-hydroxyphenyl) retinamide; 4-HPR] can induce apoptosis in neuroblastoma cell lines and could have clinical use after therapy with 13cisRA. However, there are important questions concerning potential retinoid drug interactions which need to be addressed. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of retinoic acid pre-treatment on fenretinide-induced apoptosis and fenretinide metabolism in neuroblastoma cell lines. Apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry of propidium iodide-stained neuroblastoma cells and a live-cell imaging assay. Intracellular fenretinide metabolism was determined by HPLC analysis. Pre-treatment of neuroblastoma cell lines with retinoic acid (RA) resulted in a significant decrease in the apoptotic response to fenretinide in three of the four lines tested. Comparison between responsive and non-responsive cell lines suggested that RA sensitivity was required to promote fenretinide resistance, and that this was mediated by up-regulation of Bcl-2 and the inhibition of pro-apoptotic fenretinide signalling pathways. Induction of the oxidative metabolism of fenretinide after RA pre-treatment did not significantly impact on intracellular parent drug levels and is unlikely to explain the decreased apoptotic response observed. The interaction between RA and fenretinide could have important implications for the scheduling of fenretinide in therapeutic protocols for neuroblastoma.
