ADCY5 gene expression in adipose tissue is related to obesity in men and mice
Genome wide association studies revealed an association of the single nucleotide polymorphism rs11708067 within the ADCY5 geneâencoding adenylate cyclase 5âwith increased type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk and higher fasting glucose. However, it remains unclear whether the association between ADCY5 variants and glycemic traits may involve adipose tissue (AT) related mechanisms. We therefore tested the hypothesis that ADCY5 mRNA expression in human and mouse AT is related to obesity, fat distribution, T2D in humans and high fat diet (HFD) in mice. We measured ADCY5 mRNA expression in paired samples of visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue from 244 individuals with a wide range of body weight and parameters of hyperglycemia, which have been genotyped for rs11708067. In addition, AT ADCY5 mRNA was assessed in C57BL/6NTac which underwent a 10 weeks standard
chow (n = 6) or high fat diet (HFD, n = 6). In humans, visceral ADCY5 expression is significantly higher in obese compared to lean individuals. ADCY5 expression correlates with BMI, body fat mass, circulating leptin, fat distribution, waist and hip circumference, but not with fasting plasma glucose and HbA1c. Adcy5 expression in mouse AT is significantly
higher after a HFD compared to chow (p<0.05). Importantly, rs11708067 is not associated with ADCY5 mRNA expression levels in either fat depot in any of the genetic models tested. Our results suggest that changes in AT ADCY5 expression are related to obesity and fat distribution, but not with impaired glucose metabolism and T2D. However, altered ADCY5 expression in AT does not seem to be the mechanism underlying the association between rs11708067 and increased T2D risk
Circulating cell adhesion molecules in metabolically healthy obesity
Background/Objectives
People with metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) may still have an increased risk for cardiovascular mortality compared to metabolically healthy lean (MHL) individuals. However, the mechanisms linking obesity to cardiovascular diseases are not entirely understood. We therefore tested the hypothesis that circulating cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) are higher in MHO compared to MHL individuals.
Subjects/Methods
Serum concentrations of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), soluble vascular adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), E-selectin and P-selectin were measured in age- and sex-matched groups of MHL (nâ=â32), MHO categorized into BMI-matched insulin sensitive (IS, nâ=â32) or insulin resistant (IR) obesity (nâ=â32) and people with metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO, nâ=â32).
Results
Indeed, individuals with MHO have significantly higher sICAM-1, E-selectin, and P-selectin serum concentrations compared to MHL people. However, these CAMs are still significantly lower in IS compared to IR MHO. There was no difference between the groups in sVCAM-1 serum concentrations. Compared to all other groups, circulating adhesion molecules were significantly higher in individuals with MUO.
Conclusions
These findings suggest that obesity-related increased cardiovascular risk is reflected and may be mediated by significantly higher CAMs. The mechanisms causing elevated adhesion molecules even in the absence of overt cardio-metabolic risk factors and whether circulating CAMs could predict cardiovascular events need to be explored
Large Magnetoresistance Ratio in Ferromagnetic Single-Electron Transistors in the Strong Tunneling Regime
We study transport through a ferromagnetic single-electron transistor. The
resistance is represented as a path integral, so that systems where the tunnel
resistances are smaller than the quantum resistance can be investigated. Beyond
the low order sequential tunneling and co-tunneling regimes, a large
magnetoresistance ratio at sufficiently low temperatures is found. In the
opposite limit, when the thermal energy is larger than the charging energy, the
magnetoresistance ratio is only slightly enhanced.Comment: updated versio
Linear response conductance and magneto-resistance of ferromagnetic single-electron transistors
The current through ferromagnetic single-electron transistors (SET's) is
considered. Using path integrals the linear response conductance is formulated
as a function of the tunnel conductance vs. quantum conductance and the
temperature vs. Coulomb charging energy. The magneto-resistance of
ferromagnet-normal metal-ferromagnet (F-N-F) SET's is almost independent of the
Coulomb charging energy and is only reduced when the transport dwell time is
longer than the spin-flip relaxation time. In all-ferromagnetic (F-F-F) SET's
with negligible spin-flip relaxation time the magneto-resistance is calculated
analytically at high temperatures and numerically at low temperatures. The
F-F-F magneto-resistance is enhanced by higher order tunneling processes at low
temperatures in the 'off' state when the induced charges vanishes. In contrast,
in the 'on' state near resonance the magneto-resistance ratio is a
non-monotonic function of the inverse temperature.Comment: 10 pages, 6 figures. accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.
Fas and FasL expression in human adipose tissue is related to obesity, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes
Context: Deletion of the death receptor Fas (CD95) in adipocytes of mice is associated with improved insulin sensitivity and reduced adipose tissue (AT) inflammation. Objective: Here we investigate the relationship of AT Fas with human obesity. Design and Methods: In paired samples of omental and sc AT from 256 lean and obese (including insulin-sensitive and insulin-resistant subgroups; n = 60) participants, we investigated whether Fas and Fas-ligand (FasL) mRNA expression is fat depot-specific, altered in obesity, and related to measures of AT inflammation and insulin sensitivity. In addition, AT Fas mRNA expression was measured in 16 obese patients after significant weight loss of 45 ± 6.3 kg in the context of a two-step bariatric surgery strategy. Results: Fas and FasL are significantly higher expressed in omental (OM) compared to sc AT. Fas expression correlates with body mass index (OM, r(2) = 0.44; sc, r(2) = 0.14), AT macrophage infiltration (OM, r(2) = 0.36; sc, r(2) = 0.16), and glucose infusion rate in euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamps (OM, r(2) = 0.17; sc, r(2) = 0.13) (P < .05 for all). FasL expression most strongly correlates with adipocyte size (OM, r(2) = 0.32; sc, r(2) = 0.17) and AT macrophage infiltration (OM, r(2) = 0.46; sc, r(2) = 0.02). Insulin-sensitive obese individuals had significantly lower Fas and FasL expression than insulin-resistant obese individuals. Significant weight loss 12 months after gastric sleeve resection is associated with a significantly reduced Fas expression in OM and sc fat depots. Conclusions: Independently of body weight, increased Fas expression may contribute to impaired insulin sensitivity and AT dysfunction in obesity. Moreover, significant weight loss reduces Fas expression in OM and sc fat depots
Development of high-affinity nanobodies specific for NaV1.4 and NaV1.5 voltage-gated sodium channel isoforms
Voltage-gated sodium channels, NaVs, are responsible for the rapid rise of action potentials in excitable tissues. NaV channel mutations have been implicated in several human genetic diseases, such as hypokalemic periodic paralysis, myotonia, and long-QT and Brugada syndromes. Here, we generated high-affinity anti-NaV nanobodies (Nbs), Nb17 and Nb82, that recognize the NaV1.4 (skeletal muscle) and NaV1.5 (cardiac muscle) channel isoforms. These Nbs were raised in llama (Lama glama) and selected from a phage display library for high affinity to the C-terminal (CT) region of NaV1.4. The Nbs were expressed in Escherichia coli, purified, and bio-physically characterized. Development of high-affinity Nbs specifically targeting a given human NaV isoform has been challenging because they usually show undesired cross-reactivity for different NaV isoforms. Our results show, however, that Nb17 and Nb82 recognize the CTNaV1.4 or CTNaV1.5 over other CTNav isoforms. Kinetic experiments by biolayer interferometry determined that Nb17 and Nb82 bind to the CTNaV1.4 and CTNaV1.5 with high affinity (KD ~ 40-60 nM). In addition, as proof of concept, we show that Nb82 could detect NaV1.4 and NaV1.5 channels in mammalian cells and tissues by Western blot. Furthermore, human embryonic kidney cells expressing holo NaV1.5 channels demonstrated a robust FRET-binding efficiency for Nb17 and Nb82. Our work lays the foundation for developing Nbs as anti-NaV reagents to capture NaVs from cell lysates and as molecular visualization agents for NaVs.Fil: Srinivasan, Lakshmi.

Effects of Weight Loss on Glutathione Peroxidase 3 Serum Concentrations and Adipose Tissue Expression in Human Obesity
Background/Aims: Altered expression and circulating levels of glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPX3) have been observed in obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) across species. Here, we investigate whether GPX3 serum concentrations and adipose tissue (AT) GPX3 mRNA expression are related to obesity and weight loss. Methods: GPX3 serum concentration was measured in 630 individuals, including a subgroup (n = 293) for which omental and subcutaneous (SC) GPX3 mRNA expression has been analyzed. GPX3 analyses include three interventions: 6 months after bariatric surgery (n = 80) or combined exercise/hypocaloric diet (n = 20) or two-step bariatric surgery (n = 24) studies. Results: Bariatric surgery-induced weight loss (â25.8 ± 8.4%), but not a moderate weight reduction of â8.8 ± 6.5% was associated with significantly reduced GPX3 serum concentrations. GPX3 mRNA is significantly higher expressed in AT from individuals with normal glucose metabolism compared to T2D patients. SC AT GPX3 expression is significantly higher in lean compared to obese as well as in insulin-sensitive compared insulin-resistant individuals with obesity. Weight loss after bariatric surgery causes a significant increase in SC AT GPX3 expression. AT GPX3 expression significantly correlates with age, BMI, fat distribution, insulin sensitivity (only SC AT), but not with circulating GPX3. Conclusion: Our data support the notion that SC AT GPX3 expression is associated with obesity, fat distribution and related to whole body insulin resistance

Finishing the euchromatic sequence of the human genome
The sequence of the human genome encodes the genetic instructions for human physiology, as well as rich information about human evolution. In 2001, the International Human Genome Sequencing Consortium reported a draft sequence of the euchromatic portion of the human genome. Since then, the international collaboration has worked to convert this draft into a genome sequence with high accuracy and nearly complete coverage. Here, we report the result of this finishing process. The current genome sequence (Build 35) contains 2.85 billion nucleotides interrupted by only 341 gaps. It covers âŒ99% of the euchromatic genome and is accurate to an error rate of âŒ1 event per 100,000 bases. Many of the remaining euchromatic gaps are associated with segmental duplications and will require focused work with new methods. The near-complete sequence, the first for a vertebrate, greatly improves the precision of biological analyses of the human genome including studies of gene number, birth and death. Notably, the human enome seems to encode only 20,000-25,000 protein-coding genes. The genome sequence reported here should serve as a firm foundation for biomedical research in the decades ahead
