Orofacial clefts (OFCs) are the most common congenital craniofacial disorders, of which the etiology is closely related to rare coding variants. Filamin B (FLNB) is an actin-binding protein implicated in bone formation. FLNB mutations have been identified in several types of syndromic OFCs and previous studies suggest a role of FLNB in the onset of non-syndromic OFCs (NSOFCs). Here, we report two rare heterozygous variants (p.P441T and p.G565R) in FLNB in two unrelated hereditary families with NSOFCs. Bioinformatics analysis suggests that both variants may disrupt the function of FLNB. In mammalian cells, p.P441T and p.G565R variants are less potent to induce cell stretches than wild type FLNB, suggesting that they are loss-of-function mutations. Immunohistochemistry analysis demonstrates that FLNB is abundantly expressed during palatal development. Importantly, Flnb^(−/−) embryos display cleft palates and previously defined skeletal defects. Taken together, our findings reveal that FLNB is required for development of palates in mice and FLNB is a bona fide causal gene for NSOFCs in humans.

Deletion of Gab2 in mice protects against hepatic steatosis and steatohepatitis:a novel therapeutic target for fatty liver disease

Fatty liver disease is a serious health problem worldwide and is the most common cause for chronic liver disease and metabolic disorders.The major challenge in the prevention and intervention of this disease is the incomplete understanding of the underlying mechanism and thus lack of potent therapeutic targets due to multifaceted and interdependent disease factors.In this study,we investigated the role of a signaling adaptor protein,GRB2-associated-binding protein 2(Gab2),in fatty liver using an animal disease model.Gab2 expression in hepatocytes responded to various disease factor stimulations,and Gab2 knockout mice exhibited resistance to fat-induced obesity,fat-or alcohol-stimulated hepatic steatosis,as well as methionine and choline deficiency-induced steatohepatitis.Concordantly,the forced expression or knockdown of Gab2 enhanced or diminished oleic acid(OA)-or ethanol-induced lipid production in hepatocytes in vitro,respectively.During lipid accumulation in hepatocytes,both fat and alcohol induced the recruitment of PI3K or Socs3 by Gab2 and the activation of their downstream signaling proteins AKT,ERK,and Stat3.Therefore,Gab2 may be a disease-associated protein that is induced by pathogenic factors to amplify and coordinate multifactor-induced signals to govern disease development in the liver.Our research provides a novel potential target for the prevention and intervention of fatty liver disease.

TLR4 inactivation protects from graft-versus-host disease after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Cellular & Molecular Immunology 2013年第2期10卷 165-175页

Graft-versus-host disease （GVHD） is the most common complication after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. To clarify the role of Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）, which is a major receptor for bacterial lipopolysaccharides （LPS）, in the development of acute GVHD, we used a TLR4-knockout （TLR4-/-） mouse GVHD model and analyzed the underlying immunological mechanisms. When TLR4-/- mice were used as bone marrow and splenocyte cell graft donors or recipients, GVHD symptom occurrence and mortality were delayed compared to wild-type （TLR4＋/＋） mice. In addition, histopathological analyses revealed that in TLR4-/-→BALB/c chimeras, liver and small intestine tissue damage was reduced with minimal lymphocytic infiltration. In contrast to TLR4＋/＋, TLR4-/- mice dendritic cells did not express CD80, CD86, CD40, MHC-II or IL-12 during LPS induction and remained in an immature state. Furthermore, the ability of TLR4-/- mice spleen dendritic cells to promote allogeneic T-cell proliferation and, in particular, T-helper cell 1 （Th 1） development was obviously attenuated compared with TLR4＋/＋ mice dendritic cells, and the levels of interferon-T （IFN-γ） and IL-IO, Th2-cell specific cytokines, were significantly higher in the serum of TLR4-/-→BALB/c than in TLR4＋/＋→BALB/c chimeric mice. Overall, our data revealed that TLR4 may play a role in the pathogenesis of GVHD and that targeted TLR4 gene therapy might provide a new treatment approach to reduce the risk of GVHD.

Genetically engineered mouse(GEM)models are commonly used in biomedical research.Generating GEMs involve complex set of experimental procedures requiring sophisticated equipment and highly skilled technical staff.Because of these reasons,most research institutes set up centralized core facilities where custom GEMs are created for research groups.Researchers,on the other hand,when they begin thinking about generating GEMs for their research,several questions arise in their minds.For example,what type of model(s)would be best useful for my research,how do I design them,what are the latest technologies and tools available for developing my model(s),and finally how to breed GEMs in my research.As there are several considerations and options in mouse designs,and as it is an expensive and time-consuming endeavor,careful planning upfront can ensure the highest chance of success.In this article,we provide brief answers to several frequently asked questions that arise when researchers begin thinking about generating mouse model(s)for their work.
