Is there a role for TFII-I in megakaryopoiesis?
Yes. TFII-I acts as a repressor of β-globin gene transcription and is implicated in the differentiation of erythrocytes into megakaryopoiesis. Mutations in exon 2 interfere with the synthesis of the full-length isoform of TF II-I and lead to the production of a shortened isoform, TFII, in erythroid cells. TF2-I has a role in embryonic development and differentiation of all eukaryotes but its physiological function is still unclear.Yes. TFII-I is a ubiquitously expressed transcription factor that positively or negatively regulates gene expression. TFII-I has been implicated in neuronal and immunologic diseases as well as in thymic epithelial cancer. Williams-Beuren Syndrome (WBS) is caused by a large hemizygous deletion on chromosome 7q11.23 which encompasses 26-28 genes, including GTF2I, the human gene encoding TFII-I. A subset of WBS patients has recently been shown to present with macrocytosis, a mild anemia characterized by enlarged erythrocytes. TFII-I acts as a repressor of β-globin gene transcription and that it is implicated in the differentiation of erythro-megakaryocytic cells.Yes. The data show that TFII-I acts as a repressor of β-globin gene transcription and that it is implicated in the differentiation of erythro-megakaryocytic cells.Yes. TFII-I acts as a repressor of β-globin gene transcription and it is implicated in the differentiation of erythrocytes and megakaryopoiesis. In fact, upregulation of TF II-I expression in mesenchymal stem cells increases both survival and angiogenesis and may therefore represent a novel and efficient therapeutic approach for modulating cell proliferation and differentiation.

What are the EMA and FDA recommendations regarding pharmacogenetic testing for abacavir?
Abacavir HSRs are highly associated with the major histocompatibility complex class I. Large studies established the effectiveness of prospective HLA-B*57:01 screening to prevent HSRs to abacavir. Accordingly to these results the abacavir label has been modified: the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the FDA recommend/suggested that the administration of abacavir must be preceded by a specific genotyping test. The HLA locus is extremely polymorphic, exhibiting many closely related alleles, making it difficult to discriminate HLA-B*57:01 from other related alleles, and a number of different molecular techniques have been developed recently to detect the presence of HLA-B*57:01.

Which particular intersex phenotype is related to steroid reductase?
Steroid reductase mutations are associated with both sex-determining and non-syndromic hypospadiasVirilization of the external genitalia in the male fetus requires testosterone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which is formed from testosterone by the action of the enzyme, 5alpha-reductase type 2 (5alphaR-2). Numerous cases of male pseudohermaphroditism due to 5 alpha reductase-2 deficiency have been identified.Mutations in the steroid 5 alpha-reductase 2 gene are the cause of 5 alpha reductase deficiency. In the 20 yr since it was established that impairment of dihydrotestosterone formation is a cause of a rare form of human intersex, a wealth of information has accumulated about the genetics, endocrinology, and variable phenotypic manifestations.Hypospadias is a rare form of intersex due to reduced activity of steroid reductase 5 alpha-reductase.

Which gene is responsible for the Liebenberg syndrome?
Liebenberg syndrome is a genetic disease caused by heterozygous mutations or deletions of the zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 2 (ZEB2) gene. Patients present with prominent neurological, medical, and behavioral symptoms.We discuss the genetic abnormality that causes Liebenberg syndrome, the genomic rearrangement at the PITX1 locus on chromosome 5We re-define the phenotype of Liebenberg syndrome as a transformation of the upper limbs to reflect lower limb characteristics. We speculate that the area of deletion contains a regulatory sequence that suppresses the expression of PITX1 in the upper limb buds.Liebenberg syndrome is caused by genetic changes near the PITX1 gene. The protein produced from this gene plays a critical role in lower limb development by controlling the activity of other genes involved in limb development, directing the shape and structure of bones and other tissues in the legs and feet.Liebenberg syndrome is a genetic disease caused by heterozygous mutations or deletions of the zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 2 (ZEB2) gene.Liebenberg syndrome is a genetic disease caused by heterozygous mutations or deletions of the zinc finger E-box-binding homeodomain complex 1 (PITX1) gene.Liebenberg syndrome is caused by a deletion upstream to the PITX1 gene resulting in transformation of the upper limbs to reflect lower limb characteristics The deleted region is upstream to the PITX1 gene.Liebenberg syndrome is caused by a deletion upstream to the PITX1 gene resulting in transformation of the upper limbs to reflect lower limb characteristics

What is the proteoglycan Tsukushi?
Tsukushi (TSK), a member of the small leucine-rich repeat proteoglycan (SLRP) family, plays multifunctional roles by interacting with signaling molecules during development. In lung cancer cells, TSK is expressed more highly than the other SLRPs family members, and regulates the EMT and proliferation. Thus, TSK may be a key coordinator of multiple pathways and an important structural element in the lung cancer microenvironment. Gain- and loss-of-function analyses showed that the small leucine-rich proteoglycan, tsukushi, contributes to vitamin K2-mediated enhancement of collagen accumulation.

What is the role of Adamts18 in hormone receptor signaling?
Adamts18 links luminal hormone receptor signaling to basement membrane remodeling and stem cell activation.The secreted protease Adamts18 links hormone action to activation of the mammary stem cell niche. Adamts18 is required for stem cell activation, has multiple binding partners in the basement membrane and interacts with the basal membrane-specific proteoglycan, Col18a1.Estrogens and progesterone control breast development and carcinogenesis via their cognate receptors expressed in a subset of luminal cells in the mammary epithelium. Both hormones induce the secreted protease Adamts18 in myoepithelial cells by controlling Wnt4 expression with consequent paracrine canonical Wnt signaling activation. Adamts18 is required for stem cell activation, has multiple binding partners in the basement membrane and interacts genetically with the basal membrane-specific proteoglycan, Col18a1, pointing to the basement membrane as part of the stem cell niche. In vitro, ADAMTS18 cleaves fibronectin; in vivo, Adamts18 deletion causes increased collagen deposition during puberty, which results in impaired Hippo signaling and reduced Fgfr2 expression both of which control stem cell function. Thus, Adamts18 links luminal hormone receptor signaling to basement membrane remodeling and stem cell activation.Adamts18 is required for stem cell activation, has multiple binding partners in the basement membrane and interacts genetically with the basal membrane-specific proteoglycan, Col18a1, pointing to the basement membrane as part of the stem cell niche.In vitro, ADAMTS18 cleaves fibronectin; in vivo, it causes increased collagen deposition during adolescence, which results in impaired Hippo signaling and reduced Fgfr2 expression both in vitro and in vivo.

Which component of the Influenza A Virus affects mRNA transcription termination?
Defective Pol II termination occurs independently of the ability of the viral NS1 protein to interfere with host mRNA processing. Instead, this termination defect is a common effect of diverse cellular stresses and underlies the production of previously reported downstream-of-gene transcripts (DoGs).Influenza A virus (IAV) infection induces global transcriptional defects at the 3' ends of active host genes and RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) run-through into extragenic regions. This phenomenon occurs with multiple strains of IAV, is dependent on influenza NS1 protein, and can be modulated by SUMOylation of an intrinsically disordered region (IDR) of NS1 expressed by the 1918 pandemic IAV strain

The formation of which inflammatory molecule is regulated by MAP3K8 (TPL2)?
MAP3K8 (Tpl2) regulates the formation of inflammatory molecule IL-1βMAP3K8 (Tpl2) regulates the formation of IL-1β by masking its inflammatory function.MAP3K8 (also known as Map3k8) regulates the formation of IL-1βIL-1β formation is regulated by MAP3K8 (TPL2)Tpl2 as an important mediator for collaboration of pattern recognition receptors with danger-associated molecular patterns to induce TNF and IL-1beta production and optimal host defense.MAP3K8 is involved in local adipose tissue inflammation, specifically for IL-1β and its responsive cytokines IL-6 and IL-8, but does not seem to have systemic effects on insulin resistance.
