γ-Tubulin–γ-Tubulin Interactions as the Basis for the Formation of a Meshwork
International journal of molecular sciences, 2018Co-Authors: Catalina Ana Rosselló, Lisa Lindström, Greta Eklund, Matthieu Corvaisier, Maria Alvarado KristenssonAbstract:In Cytoplasm, Protein γ-tubulin joins with various γ-tubulin complex Proteins (GCPs) to form a heterotetramer γ-tubulin small complex (γ-TuSC) that can grow into a ring-shaped structure called the γ-tubulin ring complex (γ-TuRC). Both γ-TuSC and γ-TuRC are required for microtubule nucleation. Recent knowledge on γ-tubulin with regard to its cellular functions beyond participation in its creation of microtubules suggests that this Protein forms a cellular meshwork. The present review summarizes the recognized functions of γ-tubulin and aims to unite the current views on this Protein.

Cytoplasm Protein GFAP Magnetic Beads Construction and Application as Cell Separation target for Brain Tumors
2020Co-Authors: Yang Zhao, Feng Jiang, Qinhua Wang, Baocheng Wang, Yipeng Han, Jian Yang, Jiajia Wang, Kai Wang, Xunxiang GuoAbstract:Abstract BACKGROUND: It is very important to develop a highly efficient cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) detection system with diagnosis and prediction function, for which the detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in CSF is a good choice. In contrast to the past use of epithelial EpCAM as CTCs separation target, a Cytoplasm Protein of GFAP antibody was first selected to construct highly-sensitive immunomagnetic liposomes (IMLs). The validation and efficiency of this system in capturing CTCs for brain tumors were measured both in vitro and in vivo. The associations between the numbers of CTCs in patients with their clinical characteristics were further analyzed. RESULTS: Our data show that CTCs can be successfully isolated from CSF and blood samples from 32 children with brain tumors. The numbers of CTCs in CSF were significantly higher than those in blood. The level of CTCs in CSF was related to the type and location of the tumor rather than its stage. The higher the CTCs number is, the more possibly the patient will suffer from poor prognosis. Genetic testing in GFAP CTC-DNA by sanger sequencing, q-PCR and NGS methods indicated that the isolated CTCs (GFAP+/EGFR+) are the related tumor cell. For example, the high expression of NPR3 gene in CSF CTCs was consistent with that of tumor tissue. CONCLUSIONS: The results indicated that GFAP-IML CTCs isolation system, combined with an EGFR immunofluorescence assay of antitumor marker, can serve as a brand-new method for the identification of CTCs for brain tumors. Via lumbar puncture, a minimally invasive procedure, this technique may play a significant role in the clinical diagnosis and drug evaluation of brain tumors.

2020Co-Authors: Yang Zhao, Feng Jiang, Qinhua Wang, Baocheng Wang, Yipeng Han, Jian Yang, Jiajia Wang, Xiaoshu Dong, Kai WangAbstract:Abstract BACKGROUND: Pediatric Neuroepithelial Tumors (NT) are one of the most prevalent diseases among children. Developing a highly efficient cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) detection system with diagnosis and prediction function is very important. Circulating tumor cell (CTC) in CSF is a good choice. In contrast to the past use of epithelial EpCAM as CTC separation target, an Cytoplasm Protein of GFAP antibody was first selected to construct highly-sensitive immunomagnetic liposomes (IMLs). The validation and efficiency of this system in capturing CTCs for NT were measured both in vitro and in vivo. The associations between the numbers of CTCs in patients with their clinical characteristics were further analyzed. RESULTS: Our data show that CTCs can be successfully isolated from CSF and blood samples from 29 children with NT. The numbers of CTCs in CSF were significantly higher than those in blood. The level of CTCs in CSF was related to the type and location of the tumor rather than its stage. Genetic testing in GFAP CTC-DNA by sanger sequencing, q-PCR and NGS methods indicated that the isolated CTCs (GFAP+/EGFR+) are the related tumor cell. For example, the high expression of NPR3 gene in CSF CTC was consistant with tumor tissue. CONCLUSIONS: GFAP-IML isolation of CTCs, combined with an EGFR immunofluorescence assay of antitumor marker, can serve as a brand-new method for the identification of CTCs for brain tumors. Via lumbar puncture, a minimally invasive procedure, this technique can be clinically significant in diagnosis and efficacy assessments of pediatric NT.

Non-equivalence of nuclear import among nuclei in multinucleated skeletal muscle cells.
Journal of Cell Science, 2018Co-Authors: Alicia A. Cutler, Jennifer B. Jackson, Anita H. Corbett, Grace K. PavlathAbstract:ABSTRACT Skeletal muscle is primarily composed of large myofibers containing thousands of post-mitotic nuclei distributed throughout a common Cytoplasm. Protein production and localization in specialized myofiber regions is crucial for muscle function. Myonuclei differ in transcriptional activity and Protein accumulation, but how these differences among nuclei sharing a Cytoplasm are achieved is unknown. Regulated nuclear import of Proteins is one potential mechanism for regulating transcription spatially and temporally in individual myonuclei. The best-characterized nuclear localization signal (NLS) in Proteins is the classical NLS (cNLS), but many other NLS motifs exist. We examined cNLS and non-cNLS reporter Protein import using multinucleated muscle cells generated in vitro , revealing that cNLS and non-cNLS nuclear import differs among nuclei in the same cell. Investigation of cNLS nuclear import rates in isolated myofibers ex vivo confirmed differences in nuclear import rates among myonuclei. Analyzing nuclear import throughout myogenesis revealed that cNLS and non-cNLS import varies during differentiation. Taken together, our results suggest that both spatial and temporal regulation of nuclear import pathways are important in muscle cell differentiation and Protein regionalization in myofibers.
