TL;DR: The data provided clearly link PK-M2 expression and oxaliplatin resistance mechanisms and further implicate PK- M2 as a predictive marker of response in patients with oxali platin-treated colorectal cancer.
Abstract: We aimed to gain further understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in oxaliplatin resistance in colorectal cancer by using a proteomic approach. A 5-fold oxaliplatin-resistant cell line, HTOXAR3, was compared with its parental cell line, HT29, using two-dimensional PAGE. Mass spectrometry, Western blot, and real-time quantitative PCR confirmed the down-regulation of pyruvate kinase M2 (PK-M2) in HTOXAR3 cells. In a panel of eight colorectal cancer cell lines, we found a negative correlation between oxaliplatin resistance and PK-M2 mRNA levels (Spearman r = −0.846, P = 0.008). Oxaliplatin exposure in both HT29 and HTOXAR3 led to PK-M2 mRNA up-regulation. PK-M2 mRNA levels were measured by real-time quantitative PCR in 41 tumors treated with oxaliplatin/5-fluorouracil. Tumors with the lowest PK-M2 levels attained the lowest response rates (20% versus 64.5%, P = 0.026). High PK-M2 levels were associated with high p53 levels ( P = 0.032). In conclusion, the data provided clearly link PK-M2 expression and oxaliplatin resistance mechanisms and further implicate PK-M2 as a predictive marker of response in patients with oxaliplatin-treated colorectal cancer.[Mol Cancer Ther 2009;8(4):771–8]

TL;DR: The basis for the unusual properties of the catalytic subunit (C) of ram sperm cAMP-dependent protein kinase was investigated and it was found that the different amino terminus of sperm C may be related to a unique requirement for localization of the “free” C subunit within the sperm flagellum.

TL;DR: PAHs were detected by this method in sediment samples on the mg/kg level and the limits of the determination for PAHs in sediment using the proposed method ranged from 0.06 to 0.9mg/kg.
Abstract: We describe a method for the simultaneous determination of 12 kinds of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in sediment based on liquid chromatography-atmospheric pressure photoionization-mass spectrometry (LC/APPI/MS). The method consists of PAH extractions by ultrasonics, clean-up by a solid-phase extraction procedure and determination by LC/APPI/MS. The limits of the determination for PAHs in sediment using the proposed method ranged from 0.06 to 0.9 mg/kg. PAHs were detected by this method in sediment samples on the mg/kg level.

TL;DR: In this paper, quantitative proteomics methods are developed to enable the assignment of proteins to a specific component of the endomembrane system without the need to obtain pure organelles.
Abstract: Organelle proteomics is the analysis of the protein contents of a subcellular compartment. Proteins identified in subcellular proteomic studies can only be assigned to an organelle if there are no contaminants present in the sample preparation. As a result, the majority of plant organelle proteomic studies have focused on the chloroplast and mitochondria, which can be isolated relatively easily. However, the isolation of components of the endomembrane system is far more difficult due to their similar sizes and densities. For this reason, quantitative proteomics methods are being developed to enable the assignment of proteins to a specific component of the endomembrane system without the need to obtain pure organelles.

TL;DR: The presently reported immunoliposomal delivery system was successfully used in vivo to inhibit HER-2 expression, and thus induce apoptosis in human breast carcinoma tumors (MDA-MB-435) in mice upon repeated i.v. treatment.
Abstract: A blunt-ended 19-mer short interfering hybrid (siHybrid) (H) comprised of sense-DNA/antisense-RNA targeting HER-2 mRNA was encapsulated in a liposomal nanoplex with anti-transferrin receptor single-chain antibody fragment (TfRscFv) as the targeting moiety for clinically relevant tumor-specific delivery. In vitro delivery to a human pancreatic cell line (PANC-1) was shown to exhibit sequence-specific inhibition of 48-h cell growth with an IC50 value of 37 nM. The inhibitory potency of this siHybrid was increased (IC50 value of 7.8 nM) using a homologous chemically modified siHybrid (mH) in which the 19-mer sense strand had the following pattern of 2 ′-deoxyinosine (dI) and 2 ′-O-methylribonucleotide (2 ′-OMe) residues: 5′-d(TITIT)-2′OMe(GCGGUGGUU)-d(GICIT). These modifications were intended to favor antisense strand-mediated RNAi while mitigating possible sense strand-mediated off-target effects and RNase H-mediated cleavage of the antisense RNA strand. The presently reported immunoliposomal delivery syste...
