Abstract
Kidney podocytes and endothelial cells assemble a complex and dynamic basement membrane that is essential for kidney filtration. Whilst many components of this specialised matrix are known, the influence of fluid flow on its assembly and organisation remains poorly understood. Using the coculture of podocytes and glomerular endothelial cells in a low-shear stress, high-flow bioreactor, we investigated the effect of laminar fluid flow on the composition and assembly of cell-derived matrix. With immunofluorescence and matrix image analysis we found flow-mediated remodelling of collagen IV. Using proteomic analysis of the cell-derived matrix we identified changes in both abundance and composition of matrix proteins under flow, including the collagen-modifying enzyme, prolyl 4-hydroxylase (P4HA1). To track collagen IV assembly, we used CRISPR-Cas9 to knock in the luminescent marker HiBiT to the endogenous COL4A2 gene in podocytes. With this system, we found that collagen IV was secreted and accumulated consistently under both static and flow conditions. However knockdown of P4HA1 in podocytes led to a reduction in the secretion of collagen IV and this was more pronounced under flow. Together, this work demonstrates the effect of fluid flow on the composition, modification, and organisation of kidney cell-derived matrix and provides an in vitro system for investigating flow-induced matrix alteration in the context of kidney development and disease.

Collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylase isoenzymes I and II have sequence specificity towards different X-Pro-Gly triplets. Matrix Biol 2024; 125:73-87. [PMID: 38081527 DOI: 10.1016/j.matbio.2023.12.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Revised: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 02/12/2024]
Abstract
Collagen biosynthesis requires several co- and post-translational modifications of lysine and proline residues to form structurally and functionally competent collagen molecules. Formation of 4-hydroxyproline (4Hyp) in Y-position prolines of the repetitive -X-Y-Gly- sequences provides thermal stability for the triple-helical collagen molecules. 4Hyp formation is catalyzed by a collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylase (C-P4H) family consisting of three isoenzymes. Here we identify specific roles for the two main C-P4H isoenzymes in collagen hydroxylation by a detailed 4Hyp analysis of type I and IV collagens derived from cell and tissue samples. Loss of C-P4H-I results in underhydroxylation of collagen where the affected prolines are not uniformly distributed, but mainly present in sites where the adjacent X-position amino acid has a positively charged or a polar uncharged side chain. In contrast, loss of C-P4H-II results in underhydroxylation of triplets where the X-position is occupied by a negatively charged amino acid glutamate or aspartate. Hydroxylation of these triplets was found to be important as loss of C-P4H-II alone resulted in reduced collagen melting temperature and altered assembly of collagen fibrils and basement membrane. The observed C-P4H isoenzyme differences in substrate specificity were explained by selective binding of the substrate to the active site resulting in distinct differences in Km and Vmax values. Furthermore, our results clearly show that the substrate proline selection is not dependent on the collagen type, but the main determinant is the X-position amino acid of the -X-Pro-Gly- triplet. Although our data clearly shows the necessity of both C-P4H-I and II for normal prolyl 4-hydroxylation and function of collagens, the mRNA expression of the isoenzymes with various procollagens was, surprisingly, not tightly coordinated, suggesting additional levels of control. In conclusion, this study provides a molecular level explanation for the need of multiple C-P4H isoenzymes to generate collagen molecules capable to assemble into intact extracellular matrix structures.

Abstract
The ankle-link complex (ALC) consists of USH2A, WHRN, PDZD7, and ADGRV1 and plays an important role in hair cell development. At present, its architectural organization and signaling role remain unclear. By establishing Adgrv1 Y6236fsX1 mutant mice as a model of the deafness-associated human Y6244fsX1 mutation, the authors show here that the Y6236fsX1 mutation disrupts the interaction between adhesion G protein-coupled receptor V subfamily member 1 (ADGRV1) and other ALC components, resulting in stereocilia disorganization and mechanoelectrical transduction (MET) deficits. Importantly, ADGRV1 inhibits WHRN phosphorylation through regional cAMP-PKA signaling, which in turn regulates the ubiquitination and stability of USH2A via local signaling compartmentalization, whereas ADGRV1 Y6236fsX1 does not. Yeast two-hybrid screening identified the E3 ligase WDSUB1 that binds to WHRN and regulates the ubiquitination of USH2A in a WHRN phosphorylation-dependent manner. Further FlAsH-BRET assay, NMR spectrometry, and mutagenesis analysis provided insights into the architectural organization of ALC and interaction motifs at single-residue resolution. In conclusion, the present data suggest that ALC organization and accompanying local signal transduction play important roles in regulating the stability of the ALC.

Developmental growth plate cartilage formation suppressed by artificial light at night via inhibiting BMAL1-driven collagen hydroxylation. Cell Death Differ 2023:10.1038/s41418-023-01152-x. [PMID: 37029304 DOI: 10.1038/s41418-023-01152-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2022] [Revised: 02/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/15/2023] [Indexed: 04/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Exposure to artificial light at night (LAN) can induce obesity, depressive disorder and osteoporosis, but the pernicious effects of excessive LAN exposure on tissue structure are poorly understood. Here, we demonstrated that artificial LAN can impair developmental growth plate cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) formation and cause endoplasmic reticulum (ER) dilation, which in turn compromises bone formation. Excessive LAN exposure induces downregulation of the core circadian clock protein BMAL1, which leads to collagen accumulation in the ER. Further investigations suggest that BMAL1 is the direct transcriptional activator of prolyl 4-hydroxylase subunit alpha 1 (P4ha1) in chondrocytes, which orchestrates collagen prolyl hydroxylation and secretion. BMAL1 downregulation induced by LAN markedly inhibits proline hydroxylation and transport of collagen from ER to golgi, thereby inducing ER stress in chondrocytes. Restoration of BMAL1/P4HA1 signaling can effectively rescue the dysregulation of cartilage formation within the developmental growth plate induced by artificial LAN exposure. In summary, our investigations suggested that LAN is a significant risk factor in bone growth and development, and a proposed novel strategy targeting enhancement of BMAL1-mediated collagen hydroxylation could be a potential therapeutic approach to facilitate bone growth.

Abstract
Collagens are the most abundant proteins in the body and among the most biosynthetically complex. A molecular ensemble of over 20 endoplasmic reticulum resident proteins participates in collagen biosynthesis and contributes to heterogeneous post-translational modifications. Pathogenic variants in genes encoding collagens cause connective tissue disorders, including osteogenesis imperfecta, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and Gould syndrome (caused by mutations in COL4A1 and COL4A2), and pathogenic variants in genes encoding proteins required for collagen biosynthesis can cause similar but overlapping clinical phenotypes. Notably, pathogenic variants in lysyl hydroxylase 3 (LH3) cause a multisystem connective tissue disorder that exhibits pathophysiological features of collagen-related disorders. LH3 is a multifunctional collagen-modifying enzyme; however, its precise role(s) and substrate specificity during collagen biosynthesis has not been defined. To address this critical gap in knowledge, we generated LH3 KO cells and performed detailed quantitative and molecular analyses of collagen substrates. We found that LH3 deficiency severely impaired secretion of collagen α1α1α2(IV) but not collagens α1α1α2(I) or α1α1α1(III). Amino acid analysis revealed that LH3 is a selective LH for collagen α1α1α2(IV) but a general glucosyltransferase for collagens α1α1α2(IV), α1α1α2(I), and α1α1α1(III). Importantly, we identified rare variants that are predicted to be pathogenic in the gene encoding LH3 in two of 113 fetuses with intracranial hemorrhage-a cardinal feature of Gould syndrome. Collectively, our findings highlight a critical role of LH3 in α1α1α2(IV) biosynthesis and suggest that LH3 pathogenic variants might contribute to Gould syndrome.

Abstract
Background: Prolyl 4-hydroxylase subunit alpha 1 (P4HA1) provides the majority of the catalytic site of the active P4H enzyme. Emerging evidence has revealed that P4HA1 participates in the initiation and development of several malignant tumors. However, a pan-cancer analysis of P4HA1 has not been performed. Methods: In this study, we carried out an in-depth analysis of the expression patterns and prognostic value of P4HA1 using the datasets of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Kaplan–Meier Plotter. Genomic and epigenetic alterations of P4HA1 and the correlation of P4HA1 with DNA methylation in different cancers were also analyzed across multiple databases. In addition, the purity-adjusted partial Spearman’s correlation test was utilized to evaluate the correlation between P4HA1 expression and immune cell infiltration. We also further explored the biological function and mechanism of P4HA1 in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Results: We characterized the expression profiles and prognostic values of P4HA1 in multiple cancer types. P4HA1 expression was increased in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) compared to adjacent normal tissues, and P4HA1 positively correlated with the overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in papillary RCC. In addition, a positive correlation between P4HA1 expression and immune cell infiltration was observed in clear cell RCC. We also identified a strong correlation between P4HA1 expression and immune checkpoint gene expression, microsatellite instability, and tumor mutation burden in chromophobe RCC. Finally, the results of in vitro experiments verified that overexpression of P4HA1 promoted the proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition of RCC cells. Conclusion: Overall, our study has suggested that P4HA1 might play a significant role in tumorigenesis in RCC and may be a prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for several malignant tumors, including RCC.

Abstract
Myopia is recognized as a multifactor, multicascade complex disease. However, people still know little about the pathogenesis of myopia. Therefore, we aim to guide the personalized treatment, drug research, and development of myopia. Here, based on the interaction network of myopia-related genes, this study constructed a multifactor-driven myopia disease module map. We first identified differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs in myopia. Then, we constructed a myopia-related protein interaction network targeted by these DE miRNAs. Further, we clustered the network into modules and identified module-driven factors, including ncRNAs and transcription factors. Especially, miR-16-5p and miR-34b-5p significantly differentially expressed drive the pathogenic module to influence the progression of myopia. At the same time, transcription factors were involved in myopia-related functions and pathways by regulating the expression of genes in modules, such as Ctnnb1, Myc, and Notch1. In addition, we identified 43 genes in modules that played key roles in the development and progression of myopia such as Vamp2, Egfr, and Wasl. Finally, we constructed a comprehensive multifactor-driven myopia pathogenic module landscape and predicted potential drug and drug targets for myopia. In general, our work not only provided candidates for biological experiments which laid the foundation for the in-depth study of myopia but also has a high reference value for the personalized treatment of myopia and drug development.

Abstract
Proper deposition of the extracellular matrix and its major components, the collagens, is essential for endochondral ossification and bone mass accrual. Collagen prolyl 4‐hydroxylases (C‐P4Hs) hydroxylate proline residues in the ‐X‐Pro‐Gly‐ repeats of all known collagen types. Their product, 4‐hydroxyproline, is essential for correct folding and thermal stability of the triple‐helical collagen molecules in physiological body temperatures. We have previously shown that inactivation of the mouse P4ha1 gene, which codes for the catalytic α subunit of the major C‐P4H isoform, is embryonic lethal, whereas inactivation of the P4ha2 gene produced only a minor phenotype. Instead, mice with a haploinsufficiency of the P4ha1 gene combined with a homozygous deletion of the P4ha2 gene present with a moderate chondrodysplasia due to transient cell death of the growth plate chondrocytes. Here, to further characterize the bone phenotype of the P4ha1+/−; P4ha2−/− mice, we have carried out gene expression analyses at whole‐tissue and single‐cell levels, biochemical analyses, microcomputed tomography, histomorphometric analyses, and second harmonic generation microscopy to show that C‐P4H α subunit expression peaks early and that the C‐P4H deficiency leads to reduced collagen amount, a reduced rate of bone formation, and a loss of trabecular and cortical bone volume in the long bones. The total osteoblast number in the proximal P4ha1+/−; P4ha2−/− tibia and the C‐P4H activity in primary P4ha1+/−; P4ha2−/− osteoblasts were reduced, whereas the population of osteoprogenitor colony‐forming unit fibroblasts was increased in the P4ha1+/−; P4ha2−/− marrow. Thus, the P4ha1+/−; P4ha2−/− mouse model recapitulates key aspects of a recently recognized congenital connective tissue disorder with short stature and bone dysplasia caused by biallelic variants of the human P4HA1 gene. Altogether, the data demonstrate the allele dose‐dependent importance of the C‐P4Hs to the developing organism and a threshold effect of C‐P4H activity in the proper production of bone matrix. © 2022 The Authors.

Abstract
Aim: We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic values of P4HAs in breast cancer (BC) patients. Materials & methods: Kaplan-Meier plotter was used to evaluate the prognostic values of P4HAs and correlations between their expression and clinical characteristics were assessed based on The Cancer Genome Atlas and the Human Protein Atlas. Results: The current study showed that P4HAs were highly expressed in BC patients with clinical stage I compared with nontumor control and elevated P4HAs were correlated with poor survival outcomes. Subtypes analysis revealed that P4HA1 and P4HA2 were most expressed in HER2+ subtypes patients. Univariate analysis displayed that elevated P4HA1 and P4HA3 correlated with unfavorable recurrence-free survival in mutated TP53 patients. Conclusion: This study indicated the diagnostic and prognostic roles of P4HAs members and broadened the biomarker fields of early diagnosis and prognostic monitoring of BC patients.

Abstract
Muscle is a contractile tissue responsible for maintaining posture and the movement of all parts of the body. Prolonged oxidizative stress can lead to the damage of cells, tissues, and organs. In this study, we investigated the possibility of oxidative stress in the process of myoblast differentiation of C2C12 cells. First, the myoblast differentiation model of C2C12 cells was constructed and verified by Giemsa staining. The expression of hypoxia inducible factor1-alpha (HIF1-α), hypoxia inducible factor1-beta (HIF1-β), Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL), lysyl oxidase (Lox), EGL-9 family hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (EGLN1), proline 4-hydroxylase alpha 1 (P4HA1) and heme oxygenase-1 (HOMX1) in the process of myoblast differentiation was verified by in vitro experiments and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) bioinformatic analysis. We found that with the increased expression of myogenic factor 5 (MYF5), myogenic differentiation 1 (MYOD1), and Desmin, myotube fusion became more obvious during the process of C2C12 cell differentiation. Both experimental and GEO analysis indicated that the expression of HIF1-α, HIF1-β, VHL, LOX, EGLN1 and P4HA1 increased, and the expression of HOMX1 decreased during myogenic differentiation. Therefore, we suggest that the myoblast differentiation of C2C12 cells may be related to oxidative stress. Their possible relationship was proposed, though further studies are needed.

Abstract
Lymphedema (LE) affects millions of people worldwide. It is a chronic progressive disease with massive development of fibrosclerosis when untreated. There is no pharmacological treatment of lymphedema. The disease is associated with swelling of the interstitium of the affected organ, mostly arm or leg, impressive development of adipose tissue, fibrosis and sclerosis with accumulation of huge amounts of collagen, and Papillomatosis cutis. Malnutrition and reduced oxygenation of the affected tissues is a hallmark of lymphedema. Here, we investigated if the hypoxia of lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) might contribute to fibrosis. We applied RNASeq and qPCR to study the concordant changes of the exome of three human foreskin-derived LEC isolates after 4 days of hypoxia (1% O2) vs. normoxia (21% O2). Of the approximately 16,000 genes expressed in LECs, 162 (1%) were up- or down-regulated by hypoxia. Of these, 21 genes have important functions in the production or modification of the extracellular matrix (ECM). In addition to the down-regulation of elastin, we found up-regulation of druggable enzymes and regulators such as the long non-coding RNA H19, inter-alpha-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain family member 5 (ITIH5), lysyl-oxidase (LOX), prolyl 4-hydroxylase subunit alpha 1 (P4HA1), procollagen-lysine 2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 2 (PLOD2), and others that are discussed in the paper. Initial lymphatics do not produce a continuous basement membrane; however, our study shows that hypoxic LECs have an unexpectedly high ability to alter the ECM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Harmonin Homogy Domains (HHD) are recently identified orphan domains of about 70 residues folded in a compact five alpha-helix bundle that proved to be versatile in terms of function, allowing for direct binding to a partner as well as regulating the affinity and specificity of adjacent domains for their own targets. Adding their small size and rather simple fold, HHDs appear as convenient modules to regulate protein-protein interactions in various biological contexts. Surprisingly, only nine HHDs have been detected in six proteins, mainly expressed in sensory neurons. RESULTS Here, we built a profile Hidden Markov Model to screen the entire UniProtKB for new HHD-containing proteins. Every hit was manually annotated, using a clustering approach, confirming that only a few proteins contain HHDs. We report the phylogenetic coverage of each protein and build a phylogenetic tree to trace the evolution of HHDs. We suggest that a HHD ancestor is shared with Paired Amphipathic Helices (PAH) domains, a four-helix bundle partially sharing fold and functional properties. We characterized amino-acid sequences of the various HHDs using pairwise BLASTP scoring coupled with community clustering and manually assessed sequence features among each individual family. These sequence features were analyzed using reported structures as well as homology models to highlight structural motifs underlying HHDs fold. We show that functional divergence is carried out by subtle differences in sequences that automatized approaches failed to detect. CONCLUSIONS We provide the first HHD databases, including sequences and conservation, phylogenic trees and a list of HHD variants found in the auditory system, which are available for the community. This case study highlights surprising phylogenetic properties found in orphan domains and will assist further studies of HHDs. We unveil the implication of HHDs in their various binding interfaces using conservation across families and a new protein-protein surface predictor. Finally, we discussed the functional consequences of three identified pathogenic HHD variants involved in Hoyeraal-Hreidarsson syndrome and of three newly reported pathogenic variants identified in patients suffering from Usher Syndrome.

Abstract
Although many loci have been associated with height in European ancestry populations, very few have been identified in African ancestry individuals. Furthermore, many of the known loci have yet to be generalized to and fine-mapped within a large-scale African ancestry sample. We performed sex-combined and sex-stratified meta-analyses in up to 52,764 individuals with height and genome-wide genotyping data from the African Ancestry Anthropometry Genetics Consortium (AAAGC). We additionally combined our African ancestry meta-analysis results with published European genome-wide association study (GWAS) data. In the African ancestry analyses, we identified three novel loci (SLC4A3, NCOA2, ECD/FAM149B1) in sex-combined results and two loci (CRB1, KLF6) in women only. In the African plus European sex-combined GWAS, we identified an additional three novel loci (RCCD1, G6PC3, CEP95) which were equally driven by AAAGC and European results. Among 39 genome-wide significant signals at known loci, conditioning index SNPs from European studies identified 20 secondary signals. Two of the 20 new secondary signals and none of the 8 novel loci had minor allele frequencies (MAF) < 5%. Of 802 known European height signals, 643 displayed directionally consistent associations with height, of which 205 were nominally significant (p < 0.05) in the African ancestry sex-combined sample. Furthermore, 148 of 241 loci contained ≤20 variants in the credible sets that jointly account for 99% of the posterior probability of driving the associations. In summary, trans-ethnic meta-analyses revealed novel signals and further improved fine-mapping of putative causal variants in loci shared between African and European ancestry populations.

Roles of HIF and 2-Oxoglutarate-Dependent Dioxygenases in Controlling Gene Expression in Hypoxia. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13020350.

Abstract
Simple Summary Hypoxia—reduction in oxygen availability—plays key roles in both physiological and pathological processes. Given the importance of oxygen for cell and organism viability, mechanisms to sense and respond to hypoxia are in place. A variety of enzymes utilise molecular oxygen, but of particular importance to oxygen sensing are the 2-oxoglutarate (2-OG) dependent dioxygenases (2-OGDs). Of these, Prolyl-hydroxylases have long been recognised to control the levels and function of Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF), a master transcriptional regulator in hypoxia, via their hydroxylase activity. However, recent studies are revealing that such dioxygenases are involved in almost all aspects of gene regulation, including chromatin organisation, transcription and translation.

Abstract
Growth, one of the most important traits monitored in domestic animals, is essentially associated with bone development. To date, no large-scale transcriptome studies investigating bone development in bighead carp have been reported. In this study, we applied Isoform-sequencing technology to uncover the entire transcriptomic landscape of the bighead carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis) in early growth stage, and obtained 63,873 non-redundant transcripts, 20,907 long non-coding RNAs, and 1,579 transcription factors. A total of 381 alternative splicing events were seen in the frontal and parietal bones with another 784 events simultaneously observed in the vertebral bones. Coupling this to RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data, we identified 27 differentially expressed unigenes (DEGs) in the frontal and parietal bones and 45 DEGs in the vertebral bones in the fast-growing group of fish, when compared to the slow-growing group of fish. Finally, 15 key pathways and 20 key DEGs were identified and found to be involved in regulation of early growth such as energy metabolism, immune function, and cytoskeleton function and important cellular pathways such as the arginine and proline metabolic pathway (p4ha1), FoxO signaling pathway (sgk1), cell adhesion molecules (b2m, ptprc, and mhcII), and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor signaling pathway (scd). We established a novel full-length transcriptome resource and combined it with RNA-seq to elucidate the mechanism of genetic regulation of differential growth in bighead carp. The key DEGs identified in this study could fuel further studies investigating associations between growth and bone development and serve as a source of potential candidate genes for marker-assisted breeding programs.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly diagnosed malignancy that is associated with high levels of mortality. CRCs are often associated with an aberrant wingless-type mouse mammary tumor virus integration site family (Wnt) signaling pathway known to be responsible for tumorigenesis and cancer progression. Other factors that contribute to CRC pathology include hypoxia, extracellular matrix and cellular microenvironment. In the present study, modulation of Wnt, a common molecular progenitor for CRC-associated pathology was evaluated. CRC tissues and specific cell lines were found to exhibit increased expression levels of prolyl 4-hydroxylase subunit α1 (P4HA1). P4HA1 expression was found to stabilize hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF1α). The silencing of P4HA1 resulted in decreased cell proliferation, cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase, decreased tumorsphere formation, decreased tumorsphere volume, increased susceptibility to 5-fluorouracil and increased caspase-3 activity. However, P4HA1 silencing resulted in the activation and thus proteasomal degradation of β-catenin, indicative of the abrogation of Wnt signaling pathway. Wnt is a critical signaling pathway and is activated in most CRCs. HIF1α is a poor prognostic marker in CRC. The present study provided preliminary evidence that HIF1α and the Wnt signaling pathway in CRC are modulated through P4HA1. P4HA1 may serve not just as a biomarker for CRC prognosis but may also be targeted for potential therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Collagens are the most abundant proteins in the extracellular matrix. They provide a framework to build organs and tissues and give structural support to make them resistant to mechanical load and forces. Several intra- and extracellular modifications are needed to make functional collagen molecules, intracellular post-translational modifications of proline and lysine residues having key roles in this. In this article, we provide a review on the enzymes responsible for the proline and lysine modifications, that is collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylases, 3-hydroxylases and lysyl hydroxylases, and discuss their biological functions and involvement in diseases.

Abstract
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) is a blistering skin disease caused by mutations in the gene COL7A1 encoding collagen VII. DEB can be inherited as recessive DEB (RDEB) or dominant DEB (DDEB) and is associated with a high wound burden. Perpetual cycles of wounding and healing drive fibrosis in DDEB and RDEB, as well as the formation of a tumor-permissive microenvironment. Prolonging wound-free episodes by improving the quality of wound healing would therefore confer substantial benefit for individuals with DEB. The collagenous domain of collagen VII is encoded by 82 in-frame exons, which makes splice-modulation therapies attractive for DEB. Indeed, antisense oligonucleotide-based exon skipping has shown promise for RDEB. However, the suitability of antisense oligonucleotides for treatment of DDEB remains unexplored. Here, we developed QR-313, a clinically applicable, potent antisense oligonucleotide specifically targeting exon 73. We show the feasibility of topical delivery of QR-313 in a carbomer-composed gel for treatment of wounds to restore collagen VII abundance in human RDEB skin. Our data reveal that QR-313 also shows direct benefit for DDEB caused by exon 73 mutations. Thus, the same topically applied therapeutic could be used to improve the wound healing quality in RDEB and DDEB.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE establishing the types and frequency of disembriogenetic stigma in children with joint hypermobility given the clinical and laboratory features, genetic component and endocrine regulation of these disorders in a late period upon the accident. MATERIALS AND METHODS Children (n = 109) inhabiting the radiologically contaminated territories and having the connective tissue dysplasia (CTD) signs were involved in the study. Diseases in family history, ossalgia complaints, fractures in a personal history, bone disembriogenetic stigma, joint hypermobility, type of somatic diseases, blood serum biochemical parameters (namely calcium, alkaline phosphatase, total protein, cholesterol, creatinine, iron, ferritin content), serum cortisol, free thyroxine, pituitary thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels, free amino acid composition in urine and radiation dose were considered. RESULTS Radiation doses in children having the CTD ranged from (0.37 ± 0.11) mSv to (0.56 ± 0.10) mSv with no difference from that in those without CTD. Joint hypermobility (JHM) correlated with cancer in family history (rs = 0.53) and lower extremity varicose vein disease (rs = 0.40) (p < 0.05). Incidence of ossalgia, easy fatigability, and bone fractures was higher in children with CTD. Anomalies of the dentofacial system were first in line (38.5 %) in these children. Proportion of children with grade II JHM and platypodia was lower (rs = 0.42), but with lower extremity deformations was higher (rs = 0.68) (p < 0.05) vs. in the control group. Iron and ferritin deficiencies both with lymphocytosis were more common in children with CTD than in the comparison group (p < 0.05). The increased content of oxyproline, lysine, proline both with glycine deficiency were detected in children having the CTD, i.e. an imbalance of amino acids from the collagen content was observed featuring a predominance of catabolic processes over anabolic ones. There was a direct correlation between the TSH level and the JHM grade (rs = 0.49), although the values of hormone concentration in these children did not exceed the reference range (maximum values were 3.3 μIU/ml). CONCLUSIONS The revealed abnormalities in amino acid content, ferrokinetics, and thyroid function indices can affect the collagen formation, organic matrix structure of bone tissue and significantly deregulate the hemato- poiesis. The later can underlie the pathways of haematologic malignancy development.

Abstract
Co- and post-translational hydroxylation of proline residues is critical for the stability of the triple helical collagen structure. In this review, we summarise the biology of collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylases and collagen prolyl 3-hydroxylases, the enzymes responsible for proline hydroxylation. Furthermore, we describe the potential roles of hydroxyproline residues in the complex interplay between collagens and other proteins, especially integrin and discoidin domain receptor type cell adhesion receptors. Qualitative and quantitative regulation of collagen hydroxylation may have remarkable effects on the properties of the extracellular matrix and consequently on the cell behaviour.

Abstract
Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (aGPCRs) - one of the five main families in the GPCR superfamily - have several atypical characteristics, including large, multi-domain N termini and a highly conserved region that can be autoproteolytically cleaved. Although GPCRs overall have well-established pharmacological tractability, currently no therapies that target any of the 33 members of the aGPCR family are either approved or in clinical trials. However, human genetics and preclinical research have strengthened the links between aGPCRs and disease in recent years. This, together with a greater understanding of their functional complexity, has led to growing interest in aGPCRs as drug targets. A framework for prioritizing aGPCR targets and supporting approaches to develop aGPCR modulators could therefore be valuable in harnessing the untapped therapeutic potential of this family. With this in mind, here we discuss the unique opportunities and challenges for drug discovery in modulating aGPCR functions, including target identification, target validation, assay development and safety considerations, using ADGRG1 as an illustrative example.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a serious complication of diabetes mellitus. It's known that glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and prolyl 4-hydroxylase subunit alpha-1 (P4HA1) have significant effect on cardiovascular function, but their interaction in cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) is still being unraveled. METHODS AND RESULTS The present study demonstrated that glucose promotes CFs proliferation and cardiac fibrosis. Using qRT-PCR, Western blot, CCK-8, EdU, flow cytometry, wound healing and Transwell assays to explore the functions of liraglutide and P4HA1 in high-glucose (HG)-induced CFs, we proved that liraglutide as well as silencing of P4HA1 inhibited cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and promoted cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in HG-induced CFs. In addition, liraglutide downregulated P4HA1 expression, upregulated CD36 and P-JNK expression levels, and enhanced the DNA binding activity of AP-1 on P4HA1. Inhibition of CD36 or p--JNK promoted P4HA1 expression. CONCLUSIONS Liraglutide may down-regulate P4HA1 expression at least partly though CD36-JNK-AP1 pathway, thereby reducing myocardial fibrosis. Therefore, our study provides novel insight into the molecular mechanism and function of liraglutide in HG-mediated CFs.

Abstract
Background Maternal nutrition has been highlighted as one of the main factors affecting intra-uterine environment. The increase in nutritional requirements by beef cows during late gestation can cause nutritional deficiency in the fetus and impact the fetal regulation of genes associated with myogenesis and immune response. Methods Forty days before the expected calving date, cows were assigned to one of two diets: 100% (control) or 70% (restricted group) of the daily energy requirement. Muscle samples were collected from 12 heifers and 12 steers, and blood samples were collected from 12 steers. The objective of this work was to identify and to assess the biological relevance of differentially expressed genes (DEG) in the skeletal muscle and blood of beef calves born from cows that experienced [or not] a 30% energy restriction during the last 40 days of gestation. Results A total of 160, 164, and 346 DEG (q-value< 0.05) were identified in the skeletal muscle for the effects of diet, sex, and diet-by-sex interaction, respectively. For blood, 452, 1392, and 155 DEG were identified for the effects of diet, time, and diet-by-time interaction, respectively. For skeletal muscle, results based on diet identified genes involved in muscle metabolism. In muscle, from the 10 most DEG down-regulated in the energy-restricted group (REST), we identified 5 genes associated with muscle metabolism and development: SLCO3A1, ATP6V0D1, SLC2A1, GPC4, and RASD2. In blood, among the 10 most DEG, we found genes related to response to stress up-regulated in the REST after weaning, such as SOD3 and INO80D, and to immune response down-regulated in the REST after vaccination, such as OASL, KLRF1, and LOC104968634. Conclusion In conclusion, maternal energy restriction during late gestation may limit the expression of genes in the muscle and increase expression in the blood of calves. In addition, enrichment analysis showed that a short-term maternal energy restriction during pregnancy affects the expression of genes related to energy metabolism and muscle contraction, and immunity and stress response in the blood. Therefore, alterations in the intra-uterine environment can modify prenatal development with lasting consequences to adult life.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In recent years, the lower costs of arrays and sequencing technologies, and the better availability of data from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have led to more reports on genetic factors that are associated with bone health. However, there remains the need for a summary of the newly identified genetic targets that are associated with bone metabolism, and the status of their functional characterization. RECENT FINDINGS GWASs revealed dozens of novel genetic loci that are associated with bone mineral density (BMD). Some of these targets have been functionally characterized, although the vast majority have not. Glypican 6, a membrane surface proteoglycan involved in cellular growth control and differentiation, was identified as a novel determinant of BMD and represents a possible drug target for treatment of osteoporosis. Pathway analysis also showed that cell-growth pathways and the SMAD proteins associated with low BMD. SUMMARY Hits that were significantly associated with BMD in different studies represent likely candidates (e.g. SOST, WNT16, ESR1 and RANKL) for functional characterization and development of osteoporosis treatments. Indeed, currently available treatment for osteoporosis (antibody against RANKL) appeared a significant target in four recent GWAS studies indicating their applicability and importance for future treatment development.

Abstract
AEBP1 encodes the aortic carboxypeptidase-like protein (ACLP) that associates with collagens in the extracellular matrix (ECM) and has several roles in development, tissue repair, and fibrosis. ACLP is expressed in bone, the vasculature, and dermal tissues and is involved in fibroblast proliferation and mesenchymal stem cell differentiation into collagen-producing cells. Aebp1-/- mice have abnormal, delayed wound repair correlating with defects in fibroblast proliferation. In this study, we describe four individuals from three unrelated families that presented with a unique constellation of clinical findings including joint laxity, redundant and hyperextensible skin, poor wound healing with abnormal scarring, osteoporosis, and other features reminiscent of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS). Analysis of skin biopsies revealed decreased dermal collagen with abnormal collagen fibrils that were ragged in appearance. Exome sequencing revealed compound heterozygous variants in AEBP1 (c.1470delC [p.Asn490_Met495delins(40)] and c.1743C>A [p.Cys581∗]) in the first individual, a homozygous variant (c.1320_1326del [p.Arg440Serfs∗3]) in the second individual, and a homozygous splice site variant (c.1630+1G>A) in two siblings from the third family. We show that ACLP enhances collagen polymerization and binds to several fibrillar collagens via its discoidin domain. These studies support the conclusion that bi-allelic pathogenic variants in AEBP1 are the cause of this autosomal-recessive EDS subtype.

J Biol Chem 2018; 293:7645-7658.

Abstract
Collagens are the most abundant extracellular matrix proteins in vertebrates and have a characteristic triple-helix structure. Hydroxylation of proline residues is critical for helix stability, and diminished prolyl hydroxylase activity causes wide-spread defects in connective tissues. Still, the role of proline hydroxylation in the binding of collagen receptors such as integrins is unclear. Here, we isolated skin collagen from genetically modified mice having reduced prolyl 4-hydroxylase activity. At room temperature, the reduced proline hydroxylation did not affect interactions with the recombinant integrin α2I domain, but at 37 °C, collagen hydroxylation correlated with the avidity of α2I domain binding. Of note, LC-MS/MS analysis of isolated skin collagens revealed no major changes in the hydroxyproline content of the main integrin-binding sites. Thus, the disrupted α2I domain binding at physiological temperatures was most likely due to structural destabilization of the collagenous helix. Integrin α2I binding to the triple-helical GFPGER motif was slightly weaker than to GFOGER (O = hydroxyproline). This phenomenon was more prominent when α1 integrin was tested. Integrin α1β1 expressed on CHO cells and recombinant α1I domain showed remarkably slower binding velocity and weaker avidity to GFPGER when compared with GFOGER. Structural modeling revealed the critical interaction between Arg-218 in α1I and the hydroxyproline residue in the integrin-binding motif. The role of Arg-218 was further validated by testing a variant R218D α1I domain in solid-phase binding assays. Thus, our results show that the lack of proline hydroxylation in collagen can affect integrin binding by a direct mechanism and via structural destabilization of the triple helix.

Whole exome sequencing in three families segregating a pediatric case of sarcoidosis. BMC Med Genomics 2018; 11:23. [PMID: 29510755 PMCID: PMC5839022 DOI: 10.1186/s12920-018-0338-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2017] [Accepted: 02/19/2018] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sarcoidosis (OMIM 181000) is a multi-systemic granulomatous disorder of unknown origin. Despite multiple genome-wide association (GWAS) studies, no major pathogenic pathways have been identified to date. To find out relevant sarcoidosis predisposing genes, we searched for de novo and recessive mutations in 3 young probands with sarcoidosis and their healthy parents using a whole-exome sequencing (WES) methodology. METHODS From the SARCFAM project based on a national network collecting familial cases of sarcoidosis, we selected three families (trios) in which a child, despite healthy parents, develop the disease before age 15 yr. Each trio was genotyped by WES (Illumina HiSEQ 2500) and we selected the gene variants segregating as 1) new mutations only occurring in affected children and 2) as recessive traits transmitted from each parents. The identified coding variants were compared between the three families. Allelic frequencies and in silico functional results were analyzed using ExAC, SIFT and Polyphenv2 databases. The clinical and genetic studies were registered by the ClinicalTrials.gov - Protocol Registration and Results System (PRS) ( https://clinicaltrials.gov ) receipt under the reference NCT02829853 and has been approved by the ethical committee (CPP LYON SUD EST - 2 - REF IRB 00009118 - September 21, 2016). RESULTS We identified 37 genes sharing coding variants occurring either as recessive mutations in at least 2 trios or de novo mutations in one of the three affected children. The genes were classified according to their potential roles in immunity related pathways: 9 to autophagy and intracellular trafficking, 6 to G-proteins regulation, 4 to T-cell activation, 4 to cell cycle and immune synapse, 2 to innate immunity. Ten of the 37 genes were studied in a bibliographic way to evaluate the functional link with sarcoidosis. CONCLUSIONS Whole exome analysis of case-parent trios is useful for the identification of genes predisposing to complex genetic diseases as sarcoidosis. Our data identified 37 genes that could be putatively linked to a pediatric form of sarcoidosis in three trios. Our in-depth focus on 10 of these 37 genes may suggest that the formation of the characteristic lesion in sarcoidosis, granuloma, results from combined deficits in autophagy and intracellular trafficking (ex: Sec16A, AP5B1 and RREB1), G-proteins regulation (ex: OBSCN, CTTND2 and DNAH11), T-cell activation (ex: IDO2, IGSF3), mitosis and/or immune synapse (ex: SPICE1 and KNL1). The significance of these findings needs to be confirmed by functional tests on selected gene variants.

Abstract
Rare bone disorders are a heterogeneous group of diseases, initially associated with mutations in type I procollagen (PC) genes. Recent developments from dissection at the molecular and cellular level have expanded the list of disease-causing proteins, revealing that disruption of the machinery that handles protein secretion can lead to failure in PC secretion and in several cases result in skeletal dysplasia. In parallel, cell-based in vitro studies of PC trafficking pathways offer clues to the identification of new disease candidate genes. Together, this raises the prospect of heritable bone disorders as a paradigm for biosynthetic protein traffic-related diseases, and an avenue through which therapeutic strategies can be explored.Here, we focus on human syndromes linked to defects in type I PC secretion with respect to the landscape of biosynthetic and protein transport steps within the early secretory pathway. We provide a perspective on possible therapeutic interventions for associated heritable craniofacial and skeletal disorders, considering different orders of complexity, from the cellular level by manipulation of proteostasis pathways to higher levels involving cell-based therapies for bone repair and regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prolyl 4-Hydroxylase Subunit Alpha 1 (P4HA1) is the active catalytic component of prolyl 4-hydroxylase and plays a crucial role in modulating extracellular matrix hemostasis. P4HA1 has been reported to promote tumor progression by enhancing invasion and angiogenesis. Overexpression of P4HA1 is associated with decreased survival for patients with breast and prostate cancer. However, the prognostic significance of P4HA1 for glioma patients remains undefined. METHODS The expression of P4HA1 in 290 gliomas (WHO grade II-IV) and 10 normal brain tissues was examined with TMA-based immunohistochemistry assay. The correlation between P4HA1 expression and clinicopathological parameters as well as the prognosis of glioma patients was investigated. RESULTS Cytoplasmic expression of P4HA1 is high in 37.93% of all glioma cases, with 44.98% in high-grade gliomas and 19.75% in low-grade gliomas respectively. Increased P4HA1 level was correlated with advanced histological grade (p<0.01) and old age (p=0.01). Upregulation of P4HA1, as well as histological grade, was an independent risk factor for unfavorable prognosis. Subgroup analysis demonstrated that high P4HA1 expression was significantly associated with poor prognosis for high-grade gliomas (p<0.01) but not for low-grade gliomas. CONCLUSIONS P4HA1 was upregulated in gliomas. High expression of P4HA1 was correlated with the malignancy of gliomas and could serve as a prognostic indicator for patients with high-grade gliomas.
