Cryo-EM structure of native human thyroglobulin

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg

The thyroglobulin (TG) protein is essential to thyroid hormone synthesis, plays a vital role in the regulation of metabolism, development and growth and serves as intraglandular iodine storage. Its architecture is conserved among vertebrates. Synthesis of ...

Reduced NCOR2 expression accelerates androgen deprivation therapy failure in prostate cancer

Gerard Llimos Aubach

This study addresses the roles of nuclear receptor corepressor 2 (NCOR2) in prostate cancer (PC) progression in response to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Reduced NCOR2 expression significantly associates with shorter disease-free survival in patients ...

Variably Scaled Kernels Improve Classification of Hormonally-Treated Patient-Derived Xenografts

Cathrin Brisken, Fabio De Martino, Marie Shamseddin, Francesco Marchetti

Little is known about the biological functions which are exerted by hormone receptors in physiological conditions. Here, we made use of the Mouse INtraDuctal (MIND) model, an innovative patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model, to characterize global gene exp ...

Macrophage NCOR1 Deficiency Ameliorates Myocardial Infarction and Neointimal Hyperplasia in Mice

Johan Auwerx, Hongwei Zhu, Yuan Liu, Yan Liu, Shuai Shao

Background NCOR1 (nuclear receptor corepressor 1) is an essential coregulator of gene transcription. It has been shown that NCOR1 in macrophages plays important roles in metabolic regulation. However, the function of macrophage NCOR1 in response to myocard ...

Nuclear receptor corepressor 1 represses cardiac hypertrophy

Johan Auwerx, Chao Li, Jun Wang, Yuan Liu, Yan Liu, Shuai Shao, Xu Liu

The function of nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCoR1) in cardiomyocytes is unclear, and its physiological and pathological implications are unknown. Here, we found that cardiomyocyte-specific NCoR1 knockout (CMNKO) mice manifested cardiac hypertrophy at b ...

Hormone receptor signaling in estrogen receptor positive breast cancer

Valentina Scabia

Estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) signaling tightly interact in controlling postnatal breast development and impinge on breast carcinogenesis. PR is a direct transcriptional target of ER signaling and ER and PR bind closely to DNA and i ...

The corepressor NCOR1 regulates the survival of single-positive thymocytes

Johan Auwerx

Nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCOR1) is a transcriptional regulator bridging repressive chromatin modifying enzymes with transcription factors. NCOR1 regulates many biological processes, however its role in T cells is not known. Here we show that Cd4-Cre ...

Inkjet-printed microtiter plates for portable electrochemical immunoassays

Hubert Girault, Frédéric Gumy, Andreas Stephan Lesch, Fernando Cortes Salazar, Milica Jovic, Yingdi Zhu, Alexandra Bondarenko

Herein, we present the large-scale fabrication of multiplexed three-electrode sensors used in a point-of-care device platform that couples a magnetic bead-based immunoassay strategy with amperometric detection for rapid and highly sensitive analysis. The m ...

Quantification of Cooperativity in Heterodimer-DNA Binding Improves the Accuracy of Binding Specificity Models

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Bart Deplancke, Alina Isakova, Yves Berset

Many transcription factors (TFs) have the ability to cooperate on DNA elements as heterodimers. Despite the significance of TF heterodimerization for gene regulation, a quantitative understanding of cooperativity between various TF dimer partners and its i ...

Phosphorylation of the nuclear receptor co-repressor 1 by protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) switches its co-repressor targets in the liver

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans, Dongryeol Ryu, Xu Wang, Adriano Maida

The nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCoR1) is a transcriptional co-regulator that has wide-ranging effects on gene expression patterns. In the liver, NCoR1 represses lipid synthesis in the fasting state, whereas it inhibits the activation of PPARα upon fee ...

LRH-1 mediates anti-inflammatory and antifungal phenotype of IL-13-activated macrophages through the PPAR gamma ligand synthesis

Kristina Schoonjans, Matthias Alexander Sokrates Stein

Liver receptor homologue-1 (LRH-1) is a nuclear receptor involved in the repression of inflammatory processes in the hepatointestinal tract. Here we report that LRH-1 is expressed in macrophages and induced by the Th2 cytokine IL-13 via a mechanism involvi ...

ALT Telomeres Get Together with Nuclear Receptors

Joachim Lingner, Eric Aeby

Nuclear receptors bind chromosome ends in "alternative lengthening of telomeres" (ALT) cancer cells that maintain their ends by homologous recombination instead of telomerase. Marzec et al. now demonstrate that, in ALT cells, nuclear receptors not only tri ...

Progesterone and Overlooked Endocrine Pathways in Breast Cancer Pathogenesis

Cathrin Brisken, Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Rachel Marcone

Worldwide, breast cancer incidence has been increasing for decades. Exposure to reproductive hormones, as occurs with recurrent menstrual cycles, affects breast cancer risk, and can promote disease progression. Exogenous hormones and endocrine disruptors h ...

Emerging roles of the corepressors NCoR1 and SMRT in homeostasis

Johan Auwerx, Laurent Mouchiroud, Adrienne Joëlle Laurence Mottis

Epigenetic regulation of gene expression is strongly influenced by the accessibility of nucleosomal DNA or the state of chromatin compaction. In this context, coregulators, including both coactivators and corepressors, are pivotal intermediates that bridge ...

The Corepressor NCoR1 Antagonizes PGC-1α and Estrogen-Related Receptor α in the Regulation of Skeletal Muscle Function and Oxidative Metabolism

Johan Auwerx

Skeletal muscle exhibits a high plasticity and accordingly can quickly adapt to different physiological and pathological stimuli by changing its phenotype largely through diverse epigenetic mechanisms. The nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCoR1) has the abi ...
