  • The Volatile Anesthetic Isoflurane Increases Endothelial Adenosine Generation via Microparticle Ecto-59- Nucleotidase (CD73) Release
    2016
    Co-Authors: Mihwa Kim, Ahrom Ham, Kevin M Brown, Katelyn Yu-mi Kim, Thomas H Lee
    Abstract:

    Endothelial dysfunction is common in acute and chronic organ injury. Isoflurane is a widely used halogenated volatile anesthetic during the perioperative period and protects against endothelial cell death and inflammation. In this study, we tested whether isoflurane induces endothelial ecto-59-nucleotidase (CD73) and cytoprotective adenosine generation to protect against endothelial cell injury. Clinically relevant concentrations of isoflurane induced CD73 activity and increased adenosine generation in cultured human umbilical vein or mouse glomerular endothelial cells. Surprisingly, isoflurane-mediated induction of endothelial CD73 activity occurred within 1 hr and without synthesizing new CD73. We determined that isoflurane rapidly increased CD73 containing endothelial microparticles into the cell culture media. Indeed, microparticles isolated from isoflurane-treated endothelial cells had significantly higher CD73 activity as well as increased CD73 protein. In vivo, plasma from mice anesthetized with isoflurane had significantly higher endothelial cell-derived CD144+ CD73+ microparticles and had increased microparticle CD73 activity compared to plasma from pentobarbital-anesthetized mice. Supporting a critical role of CD73 in isoflurane-mediated endothelial protection, a selective CD73 inhibitor (APCP) prevented isoflurane-induced protection against human endothelial cell inflammation and apoptosis. In addition, isoflurane activated endothelial cells Rho kinase evidenced by myosin phosphatase target subunit-1 and myosin light chain phosphorylation.

  • multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 men1 phenocopy due to a cell cycle division 73 CDC73 variant
    Journal of the Endocrine Society, 2020
    Co-Authors: Kate E Lines, Lisa B Nachtigall, Laura E Dichtel, Treena Cranston, Hannah Boon, Xun Zhang, Kreepa Kooblall, Mark Stevenson, Rajesh V Thakker
    Abstract:

    Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the combined occurrence of parathyroid tumors, pituitary adenomas, and pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PNENs). MEN1 is caused by germline MEN1 mutations in > 75% of patients, and the remaining 25% of patients may have mutations in unidentified genes or represent phenocopies with mutations in genes such as cell cycle division 73 (CDC73), the calcium sensing receptor (CASR), and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1B (CDKN1B), which are associated with the hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome, familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia type 1, and MEN4, respectively. Here, we report a heterozygous c.1138C>T (p.Leu380Phe) CDC73 germline variant in a clinically diagnosed MEN1 patient, based on combined occurrence of primary hyperparathyroidism, acromegaly, and a PNEN. Characterization of the PNEN confirmed it was a neuroendocrine neoplasm as it immuno-stained positively for chromogranin and glucagon. The rare variant p.Leu380Phe occurred in a highly conserved residue, and further analysis using RNA-Scope indicated that it was associated with a significant reduction in CDC73 expression in the PNEN. Previously, CDC73 mutations have been reported to be associated with tumors of the parathyroids, kidneys, uterus, and exocrine pancreas. Thus, our report of a patient with PNEN and somatotrophinoma who had a CDC73 variant, provides further evidence that CDC73 variants may result in a MEN1 phenocopy.

  • molecular genetics of syndromic and non syndromic forms of parathyroid carcinoma
    Human Mutation, 2017
    Co-Authors: Luis Alberto Granado Cardoso, Mark Stevenson, Rajesh V Thakker
    Abstract:

    Parathyroid carcinoma (PC) may occur as part of a complex hereditary syndrome or an isolated (i.e. non-syndromic) non-hereditary (i.e. sporadic) endocrinopathy. Studies of hereditary, and syndromic forms of PC, which include the hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumour syndrome (HPT-JT), multiple endocrine neoplasia types 1 and 2 (MEN1 and MEN2), and familial isolated primary hyperparathyroidism (FIHP), have revealed some genetic mechanisms underlying PC. Thus, cell division cycle 73 (CDC73) germline mutations cause HPT-JT, and CDC73 mutations occur in 70% of sporadic PC, but in only ∼2% of parathyroid adenomas. Moreover, CDC73 germline mutations occur in 20–40% of patients with sporadic PC and may reveal unrecognized HPT-JT. This indicates that CDC73 mutations are major driver mutations in the aetiology of PCs. However, there is no genotype-phenotype correlation and some CDC73 mutations (e.g. c.679_680insAG) have been reported in patients with sporadic PC, HPT-JT, or FIHP. Other genes involved in sporadic PC include germline MEN1 and rearranged during transfection (RET) mutations and somatic alterations of the retinoblastoma 1 (RB1) and tumour protein P53 (TP53) genes, as well as epigenetic modifications including DNA methylation and histone modifications, and microRNA mis-regulation. This review summarizes the genetics and epigenetics of the familial syndromic and non-syndromic (sporadic) forms of PC. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved

  • CDC73 intragenic deletion in familial primary hyperparathyroidism associated with parathyroid carcinoma
    The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2014
    Co-Authors: Eeva Korpihyovalti, Rajesh V Thakker, Treena Cranston, Eeva Ryhanen, Johanna Arola, Kristiina Aittomaki, Timo Sane, Camilla Schalinjantti
    Abstract:

    Context: CDC73 mutations frequently underlie the hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome, familial isolated hyperparathyroidism (FIHP), and parathyroid carcinoma. It has also been suggested that CDC73 deletion analysis should be performed in those patients without CDC73 mutations. Objective: To investigate for CDC73 deletion in a family with FIHP previously reported not to have CDC73 mutations. Patients and Methods: Eleven members (six affected with primary hyperparathyroidism and five unaffected) were ascertained from the family, and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification was performed to detect CDC73 deletion using leukocyte DNA. Results: A previously unreported deletion of CDC73 involving exons 1–10 was detected in five affected members and two unaffected members who were 26 and 39 years of age. Two affected members had parathyroid carcinomas at the ages of 18 and 32 years, and they had Ki-67 proliferation indices of 5 and 14.5% and did not express parafibromin, encoded by CDC73.

  • cell division cycle protein 73 homolog CDC73 mutations in the hyperparathyroidism jaw tumor syndrome hpt jt and parathyroid tumors
    Human Mutation, 2010
    Co-Authors: Paul J Newey, Treena Cranston, Michael R Bowl, Rajesh V Thakker
    Abstract:

    The hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor (HPT-JT) syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the occurrence of parathyroid tumors in association with ossifying fibromas of the maxilla and/or mandible. The gene responsible for HPT-JT, known as CDC73, was identified in 2002 and encodes a 531 amino acid protein known as parafibromin. Parafibromin is predominantly a nuclear protein that interacts directly with β-catenin and also forms part of the RNA polymerase associated factor-1 complex (Paf1C) that regulates transcription. Heterozygous germline CDC73 mutations are detected in the majority of patients with HPT-JT, and the demonstration of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at the CDC73 locus in tumors from affected individuals is consistent with a tumor suppressor role. Somatic CDC73 mutations are a frequent finding in nonfamilial (i.e., sporadic) parathyroid carcinomas and have also been reported in benign sporadic parathyroid tumors as well as sporadic renal and fibro-osseous jaw tumors. To date, 111 independent CDC73 mutations have been identified (68 germline; 38 somatic; 5 undefined), and these occur throughout the coding region and splice sites of the CDC73 gene, with the majority (>80%) predicting premature truncation of the parafibromin protein. These CDC73 mutations, together with their clinical and biological relevance, are reviewed. Hum Mutat 31:295–307, 2010. © 2010 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

  • extracellular 5 nucleotidase cd73 promotes human breast cancer cells growth through akt gsk 3β β catenin cyclind1 signaling pathway
    International Journal of Cancer, 2018
    Co-Authors: Xue Wang, Xiuling Zhi, Jigang Wang, Xiaohong Liao, Wei Zhu, Yiting Jin, Qiang Zou, Xiuping Liu, Ping Zhou
    Abstract:

    To identify the role and to explore the mechanism of extracellular 5'-nucleotidase (CD73) in human breast cancer growth, CD73 expression was measured firstly in breast cancer tissues and cell lines, and then interfered with or over-expressed by recombinant lentivirus in cell lines. Impacts of CD73 on breast cancer cell proliferation and cell cycle were investigated with colony formation assay, CCK-8 and flow cytometry. The relationship between CD73 and AKT/GSK-3β/β-catenin pathway was assessed with adenosine, adenosine 2A receptor antagonist (SCH-58261), adenosine 2A receptor agonist (NECA), CD73 enzyme inhibitor (APCP) and Akt inhibitor (MK-2206). Moreover, the effect of CD73 on breast cancer growth in vivo was examined with human breast cancer transplanting model of nude mice. The results showed that the expression of CD73 was high in breast cancer tissues and increased with advanced tumor grades and lympho-node status. CD73 expression was higher in more malignant cells, and CD73 overexpression promoted breast cancer cell proliferation in both in vivo and in vitro. It activated AKT/GSK-3β/β-catenin/cyclinD1 signaling pathway through CD73 enzyme activity and other mechanism.

  • ecto 5 nucleotidase cd73 promotes tumor angiogenesis
    Clinical & Experimental Metastasis, 2013
    Co-Authors: Li Wang, Shaoxian Tang, Yingjian Wang, Xiuling Zhi, Jiayin Yang, Ping Zhou, Zhimin Shao
    Abstract:

    Angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth, progression and metastasis. Studies indicate that expression and activity of ecto-5′-nucleotidase (CD73) are elevated in metastatic carcinomas. Our previous studies found that angiogenesis of tumor xenografts was decreased when the activity of CD73 in cancer cells was inhibited, implying that this enzyme is involved in tumor angiogenesis. To elucidate the mechanism, we investigated CD73 influence on tumor angiogenesis in both in vitro assays and in tumor bearing mice. We found that capillary-like structures were formed more in CD73+/+ pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMECs) than CD73−/− PMECs, and this was more pronounced when the cells were cultured in cancer-conditioned medium. Meanwhile, CD73 decreased endothelial cells adhesion to collagen IV and promoted migration. Additionally, the extent of tumor angiogenesis and the size of tumors were greater in CD73+/+ mice than in CD73−/− mice. Thus, we concluded that CD73 can promote endothelial cells forming new vessels in cancer condition, facilitating tumor growth and hematogenous metastasis.
