Metabolomics signature associated with circulating serum selenoprotein P levels.

Endocrine. 2018 Nov 17;:

Authors: di Giuseppe R, Koch M, Nöthlings U, Kastenmüller G, Artati A, Adamski J, Jacobs G, Lieb W

Abstract
PURPOSE: Selenoprotein P (SELENOP) has been previously related to various metabolic traits with partially conflicting results. The identification of SELENOP-associated metabolites, using an untargeted metabolomics approach, may provide novel biological insights relevant to disentangle the role of SELENOP in human health.
METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, 572 serum metabolites were identified by comparing the obtained LC-MS/MS spectra with spectra stored in Metabolon's spectra library. Serum SELENOP levels were measured in 832 men and women using an ELISA kit.
RESULTS: Circulating SELENOP levels were associated with 24 out of 572 metabolites after accounting for the number of independent dimensions in the metabolomics data, including inverse associations with alanine, glutamate, leucine, isoleucine and valine, an unknown compound X-12063, urate and the peptides gamma-glutamyl-leucine, and N-acetylcarnosine. Positive associations were observed between SELENOP and several lipid compounds. Of the identified metabolites, each standard deviation increase in the branched-chain amino acids (isoleucine, leucine, valine), alanine and gamma-glutamyl-leucine was related to higher odds of having T2DM [OR (95% CI): 1.96 (1.41-2.73); 1.62 (1.15-2.28); 1.94 (1.45-2.60), 1.57 (1.17-2.11), and 1.52 (1.13-2.05), respectively].
CONCLUSIONS: Higher serum SELENOP levels were associated with an overall healthy metabolomics profile, which may provide further insights into potential mechanisms of SELENOP-associated metabolic disorders.

The impact of chronic environmental metal and benzene exposure on human urinary metabolome among Chinese children and the elderly population.

Abstract
The health effects of metals and benzene exposure have been extensively investigated; however, information on the impact of chronic environmental metal and benzene exposure on human urinary metabolome is limited. In this study, a total of 566 participants, including 352 elderly and 214 children, were split into the "exposed" and "control" groups. The urine samples of all the participants were collected and stored at - 80 °C until analysis. The urinary levels of 17 metals and S-phenylmercapturic acid (S-PMA) were determined by the ICP-MS and LC-MS/MS methods to comprehensively assess the personal metal and benzene exposure levels, respectively. Then, the individual levels of metal and benzene exposure were correlated to the metabolic consequences of ambient pollutant exposure, which were previously observed in our metabolomics study. As a result, multiple metals, including Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Li, Mo, Ni, Pb, Se, and Zn, exhibited a significant linear dose-dependent association with one or more urinary metabolites, including two amino acids (pyroglutamic acid and 3-methylhistidine), three organic acids (azelaic acid, decenedioic acid, and hydroxytetradecanedioic acid), ten medium-chainacylcarnitines (heptenedioylcarnitine, octenedioylcarnitine, nonenedioylcarnitine, decenedioylglucuronide, 3-hydroxydecanoylcarnitine, dodecanedioylcarnitine, nonanoylcarnitine, decadienylcarnitine, hydroxydodecenoylcarnitine, dodecadienylcarnitine, and dodecenoylcarnitine), and one glucuronide conjugate (decenedioylglucuronide). These observations indicate that the increased environmental metal exposure has caused various oxidative stress-related effects, including the depletion of antioxidants, accelerated muscle proteolysis, elevated activity of UGTs, increased lipid peroxidation, and the disorder of mitochondrial lipid metabolism among exposed children and the elderly. The current study provides new insights into the biological effects induced by metal exposure in the environment.

Efficacy of Multi-exon Skipping Treatment in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Dog Model Neonates.

Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by mutations in DMD, which codes for dystrophin. Because the progressive and irreversible degeneration of muscle occurs from childhood, earlier therapy is required to prevent dystrophic progression. Exon skipping by antisense oligonucleotides called phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers (PMOs), which restores the DMD reading frame and dystrophin expression, is a promising candidate for use in neonatal patients, yet the potential remains unclear. Here, we investigate the systemic efficacy and safety of early exon skipping in dystrophic dog neonates. Intravenous treatment of canine X-linked muscular dystrophy in Japan dogs with a 4-PMO cocktail resulted in ∼3%-27% in-frame exon 6-9 skipping and dystrophin restoration across skeletal muscles up to 14% of healthy levels. Histopathology was ameliorated with the reduction of fibrosis and/or necrosis area and centrally nucleated fibers, significantly in the diaphragm. Treatment induced cardiac multi-exon skipping, though dystrophin rescue was not detected. Functionally, treatment led to significant improvement in the standing test. Toxicity was not observed from blood tests. This is the first study to demonstrate successful multi-exon skipping treatment and significant functional improvement in dystrophic dogs. Early treatment was most beneficial for respiratory muscles, with implications for addressing pulmonary malfunction in patients.

BioJupies: Automated Generation of Interactive Notebooks for RNA-Seq Data Analysis in the Cloud.

Cell Syst. 2018 Nov 08;:

Authors: Torre D, Lachmann A, Ma'ayan A

Abstract
BioJupies is a web application that enables the automated creation, storage, and deployment of Jupyter Notebooks containing RNA-seq data analyses. Through an intuitive interface, novice users can rapidly generate tailored reports to analyze and visualize their own raw sequencing files, gene expression tables, or fetch data from >9,000 published studies containing >300,000 preprocessed RNA-seq samples. Generated notebooks have the executable code of the entire pipeline, rich narrative text, interactive data visualizations, differential expression, and enrichment analyses. The notebooks are permanently stored in the cloud and made available online through a persistent URL. The notebooks are downloadable, customizable, and can run within a Docker container. By providing an intuitive user interface for notebook generation for RNA-seq data analysis, starting from the raw reads all the way to a complete interactive and reproducible report, BioJupies is a useful resource for experimental and computational biologists. BioJupies is freely available as a web-based application from http://biojupies.cloud.

Mesophyll Protoplasts and PEG-Mediated Transfections: Transient Assays and Generation of Stable Transgenic Canola Plants.

Mesophyll Protoplasts and PEG-Mediated Transfections: Transient Assays and Generation of Stable Transgenic Canola Plants.

Methods Mol Biol. 2019;1864:131-152

Authors: Sahab S, Hayden MJ, Mason J, Spangenberg G

Abstract
Plant protoplasts are derived by controlled enzymatic digestion that removes the plant cell wall without damaging the cell membrane. Protoplasts represent a true single-cell system and are useful for various biochemical and physiological studies. Protoplasts from several agriculturally important crop species can be regenerated into a fertile whole plant, extending the utility of protoplasts from transient expression assays to the generation of stable transformation events. Here we describe procedures for transient and stable transformation of leaf mesophyll protoplasts obtained from axenic shoot cultures of canola (Brassica napus). Key steps including enzymatic digestion for protoplast release, density gradient-based protoplast purification, PEG-mediated transfection, bead-type culturing (sea-plaque agarose and sodium alginate), and the recovery of putative transgenic canola plants are described. This method has been used for double-stranded DNA break-mediated genome editing and for the routine generation of stable transgenic canola events at commercial scale.
