RNAi in mice: a promising approach to decipher gene functions in vivo
International audienceRNA interference (RNAi) is a simple and powerful tool widely used to study gene functions in many species. Vector-based systems using RNA polymerase III promoters have been developed to achieve stable expression of small interfering RNA (siRNA) or small hairpin RNA (shRNA) in mammalian cells. Recent investigations demonstrated that when, combined with the Cre-loxP system, the vector-based RNAi can be used to achieve conditional or tissue specific knockdown of endogenous genes with high efficiency in mice. Here, we review these recent progresses and discuss the advantages, limitations and future development of this emerging technology
Roles of FGF Receptors in Mammalian Development and Congenital Diseases
International audienceFour fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR1-4) constitute a family of transmembrane tyrosine kinases that serve as high affinity receptors for at least 22 FGF ligands. Gene targeting in mice has yielded valuable insights into the functions of this important gene family in multiple biological processes. These include mesoderm induction and patterning; cell growth, migration, and differentiation; organ formation and maintenance; neuronal differentiation and survival; wound healing; and malignant transformation. Furthermore, discoveries that mutations in three of the four receptors result in more than a dozen human congenital diseases highlight the importance of these genes in skeletal development. In this review, we will discuss recent progress on the roles of FGF receptors in mammalian development and congenital diseases, with an emphasis on signal transduction pathways
RNAi-based conditional gene knockdown in mice using a U6 promoter driven vector
RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful tool widely used for studying gene function in a number of species. We have previously developed an approach that allows conditional expression of a polymerase III promoter based small hairpin RNA (shRNA) in mice using the Cre-LoxP system. This approach uses a U6 promoter, which is inactive due to the presence of a ploxPneo cassette in the promoter; this promoter can be activated after excision of the neo gene in transgenic mice that express a Cre recombinase transgene. As a proof of principle, we have previously knocked down over 95% of Fgfr2 transcripts in mouse germlines, leading to embryonic lethality, while restricting the knockdown to the progress zone of the limb results in live animals with malformation of digits of both the forelimbs and hindlimbs. We now provide a detailed protocol, including a simplified single-step cloning procedure for vector construction. This method provides a fast yet efficient way to decipher gene functions in vivo in a tissue specific manner
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor-dependent upregulation of Cyp1b1 by TCDD and diesel exhaust particles in rat brain microvessels
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>AhR activates the transcription of several target genes including CYP1B1. Recently, we showed <it>CYP1B1 </it>as the major cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme expressed in human brain microvessels. Here, we studied the effect of AhR activation by environmental pollutants on the expression of Cyp1b1 in rat brain microvessels.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>Expression of AhR and Cyp1b1 was detected in isolated rat brain microvessels. AhR was immunovisualised in brain microvessel endothelial cells. The effect of AhR ligands on Cyp1b1 expression was studied using isolated brain microvessels after <it>ex vivo </it>and/or <it>in vivo </it>exposure to TCDD, heavy hydrocarbons containing diesel exhaust particles (DEP) or Î<sup>9</sup>-tetrahydrocannabinol (Î<sup>9</sup>-THC).</p> <p>Results</p> <p>After <it>ex vivo </it>exposure to TCDD (a highly potent AhR ligand) for 3 h, <it>Cyp1b1 </it>expression was significantly increased by 2.3-fold in brain microvessels. A single i.p. dose of TCDD also increased <it>Cyp1b1 </it>transcripts (22-fold) and Cyp1b1 protein (2-fold) in rat brain microvessels at 72 h after TCDD. Likewise, DEP treatment (<it>in vivo </it>and <it>ex vivo</it>) strongly induced Cyp1b1 protein in brain microvessels. DEP-mediated Cyp1b1 induction was inhibited by actinomycin D, cycloheximide, or by an AhR antagonist. In contrast, a sub-chronic <it>in vivo </it>treatment with Î<sup>9</sup>-THC once daily for 7 seven days had no effect on <it>Cyp1b1 </it>expression</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>Our results show that TCDD and DEP strongly induced Cyp1b1 in rat brain microvessels, likely through AhR activation.</p
Structure-based design, synthesis and characterization of the first irreversible inhibitor of Focal Adhesion Kinase
Focal
Adhesion Kinase signaling pathway and its functions have been involved
in the development and aggressiveness of tumor malignancy, it then
presents a promising cancer therapeutic target. Several reversible
FAK inhibitors have been developed and are being conducted in clinical
trials. On the other hand, irreversible covalent inhibitors would
bring many desirable pharmacological features including high potency
and increased duration of action. Herein we report the structure-guided
development of the first highly potent and irreversible inhibitor
of the FAK kinase. This inhibitor showed a very potent decrease of
autophosphorylation of FAK in squamous cell carcinoma. A cocrystal
structure of the FAK kinase domain in complex with this compound revealed
the inhibitor binding mode within the ATP binding site and confirmed
the covalent linkage between the targeted Cys427 of the protein and
the inhibitor
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor and cysteine redox dynamics underlie (Mal)adaptive mechanisms to chronic intermittent hypoxia in kidney cortex
Funding Information: Funding: This work was supported by Fundação para CiĂȘncia e Tecnologia [PTDC/MED-TOX/30418/2017] and iNOVA4Health [UID/Multi/04462/2013].

Publisher Copyright: © 2021 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.We hypothesized that an interplay between aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and cysteine-related thiolome at the kidney cortex underlies the mechanisms of (mal)adaptation to chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH), promoting arterial hypertension (HTN). Using a rat model of CIH-HTN, we investigated the impact of short-term (1 and 7 days), mid-term (14 and 21 days, pre-HTN), and long-term intermittent hypoxia (IH) (up to 60 days, established HTN) on Cyp1a1 protein level (a sensitive hallmark of AhR activation) and cysteine-related thiol pools. We found that acute and chronic IH had opposite effects on Cyp1a1 and the thiolome. While short-term IH decreased Cyp1a1 and increased protein-S-thiolation, long-term IH increased Cyp1a1 and free oxidized cysteine. In addition, an in vitro administration of cystine, but not cysteine, to human endothelial cells increased Cyp1a1 expression, supporting cystine as a putative AhR activator. This study supports Cyp1a1 as a biomarker of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity and oxidized pools of cysteine as risk indicator of OSA-HTN. This work contributes to a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying the phenotype of OSA-HTN, mimicked by this model, which is in line with precision medicine challenges in OSA.publishersversionpublishe

Les effets des co-expositions du BaP avec des nanoparticules: Effets du B(a)P seul ou en co-exposition avec des nanoparticules et implication du rĂ©cepteur Ah (ou AhR) dans lâintĂ©gritĂ© et la fonction de deux barriĂšres physiologiques : broncho-pulmonaire et placentaire
National audienceLa premiĂšre cible du BaP, aprĂšs son inhalation, est lâĂ©pithĂ©lium respiratoire mais il peut aussi franchir facilement les barriĂšres physiologiques et atteindre dâautres organes en quelques minutes ou quelques heures via la circulation sanguine. Le placenta constitue, chez la femme enceinte, une deuxiĂšme barriĂšre pour protĂ©ger le fĆtus. Ainsi, le benzo(a)pyrĂšne (BaP) peut ĂȘtre mĂ©tabolisĂ© au niveau des barriĂšres physiologiques, en formant des mĂ©tabolites rĂ©actifs, capables de former des adduits au niveau de lâADN. Ce qui suggĂšre quâil pourrait altĂ©rer leurs fonctions ou avoir des actions systĂ©miques. En effet, le BaP est un puissant ligand du rĂ©cepteur des hydrocarbures aromatiques (AhR), un facteur de transcription qui rĂ©gule lâexpression de nombreux gĂšnes de lâinflammation et du mĂ©tabolisme des xĂ©nobiotiques . Nos travaux sont les premiers visant Ă cartographier lâexpression gĂ©nique et protĂ©ique dâAhR et de ses gĂšnes cibles, Ă la fois au fur et Ă mesure de lâavancement de la grossesse, de la diffĂ©renciation des trophoblastes primaires ainsi que des cellules bronchiques primaires . Ces donnĂ©es fondamentales ont une importance cruciale pour la comprĂ©hension ultĂ©rieure des effets aprĂšs exposition Ă des polluants environnementaux
PesticidesâŻ: ce qui est connu ou suspectĂ© de leur action dĂ©lĂ©tĂšre sur la santĂ©: DĂ©pourvus de spĂ©cificitĂ© dâespĂšce, les pesticides impactent la santĂ© humaine
International audiencePesticides are molecules of various kinds used to combat harmful organisms (insects, weeds, fungiâŠ). Their non-specificity means that they also have an impact on human health at many levels (cancers, Parkinson's disease, developmental problems in children), as shown by the Inserm expertise on "pesticides and health". Numerous other health events could be associated with their exposure. This highlights the importance of developing complementary research between epidemiology and mechanistic toxicology, of reinforcing studies encompassing the deregulation of ecosystems with those of human health, and of producing new study methodologies enabling the toxicology of molecules recently placed on the market or soon to be placed on the market to be predicted
