Description
Kinesin spindle protein (KSP) inhibition is known to be an effective therapeutic approach in several malignancies. Filanesib (Arry-520), a KSP inhibitor, has demonstrated activity in heavily pretreated multiple myeloma (MM) patients. The aim of this work was to investigate the activity of filanesib in combination with an IMiDs plus dexamethasone backbone, and the mechanisms underlying the potential synergistic effect. Results: Filanesib showed in vitro and in vivo synergy with all IMiDs plus dexamethasone treatment, particularly with the pomalidomide combination (PDF). Importantly, the in vivo synergy observed in this combination was more evident in large, highly proliferative tumors, and it was shown to be mediated by impairment of mitosis transcriptional control, an increase in monopolar spindles, cell cycle arrest and the induction of apoptosis in cells in proliferative phases. In addition, PDF increased the activation of the proapoptotic protein Bax, which has been previously associated with sensitivity to filanesib, and could potentially be used as a predictive biomarker of response to this combination. Conclusions: Our results provide preclinical evidence for the potential benefit of the combination of filanesib with pomalidomide and dexamethasone and es-tablished the basis for a recently activated trial being conducted by the Spanish MM group investigating this combination in relapsed MM patients.

Description
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is caused by the progressive degeneration of motor neurons. Mutations in the Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) are found in about 20% of patients with familial ALS. Mutant SOD1 causes motor neuron death through an acquired toxic property. Although, molecular mechanism underlying this toxic gain-of-function remains unknown, evidence support the role of mutant SOD1 expression in non-neuronal cells in shaping motor neuron degeneration. We have previously found that in contrast to non-transgenic, SOD1G93A-expressing astrocytes induced apoptosis of co-cultured motor neurons. This prompted us to investigate whether the effect on motor neuron survival was related to a change in the gene expression profile. Through high-density oligonucletide microarrays we found changes in the expression of genes involved in transcription, signaling, cell proliferation, extracellular matrix construction, response to stress and steroid and lipid metabolism. Decorin, a small multifunctional proteoglycan, was the most up-regulated gene. Down-regulated genes included the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor and the RNA binding protein ROD1. We also analyzed the expression of selected genes in purified motor neurons expressing SOD1G93A and in spinal cord of asymptomatic and early symptomatic ALS-rodent model.

Description
Post-transcriptional regulation of cellular mRNA is essential for protein synthesis. Here we describe the importance of mRNA translational repression and mRNA subcellular location for protein expression during B lymphocyte activation and the DNA damage response. Cytoplasmic RNA granules are formed upon cell activation with mitogens, including stress granules that contain the RNA binding protein Tia1. Tia1 binds to a subset of transcripts involved in cell stress, including p53 mRNA, and controls translational silencing and RNA granule localization. DNA damage promotes mRNA relocation and translation in part due to dissociation of Tia1 from its mRNA targets. Upon DNA damage, p53 mRNA is released from stress granules and associates with polyribosomes to increase protein synthesis. Global analysis of cellular mRNA abundance and translation indicates that this is an extended ATM-dependent mechanism to increase protein expression of key modulators of the DNA damage response. Overall design: Splenic B cells from C57BL/6Babr mice were isolated and activated with LPS for 48 hours prior induction or not of DNA damage with etoposide. After 4 hours, cells were treated with cycloheximide (100 microgrames per ml) for 3 minutes. Then, cytoplasmic extracts were collected. Polysome fractionation in sucrose gradients (10-50% sucrose) was performed for isolation of mRNA associated to monosomes (fractions 4 to 7), light polysomes (fractions 8 to 10) or heavy polysomes (fractions 11 to 16). The ATM kinase inhibitor KU55933 was added 1 hour prior induction of DNA damage with etoposide.

Description
Substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) is highly sensitive to normal aging and selectively degenerates in Parkinson's disease. However, ventral tegmental area (VTA), a region adjacent to SNpc, is less affected in PD. Until now, molecular mechanisms behind VTA aging have not been fully investigated using high throughput techniques.
