Abstract

FIP1L1-PDGFRA is a constitutively activated kinase described in chronic eosinophilic leukemia (CEL) and hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES). Imatinib is clinically active in FIP1L1-PDGFRA-positive diseases. Using in vitro screening to identify imatinib-resistant mutations, we frequently detected a Phe to Ser exchange at position 604 (F604S) of FIP1L1-PDGFRA alone or in combination with other exchanges. Surprisingly, FIP1L1-PDGFRA/F604S did not increase the biochemical or cellular IC50 value of imatinib when compared with unmutated FIP1L1-PDGFRA. However, FIP1L1-PDGFRA/F604S more efficiently induced growth factor independence in cell lines and primary mouse bone marrow cells. Pulse chase analysis revealed that the F604S exchange strongly stabilized FIP1L1-PDGFRA/F604S. The F604S mutation creates a binding site for the phosphatase domain of SHP-2, leading to lower autophosphorylation of FIP1L1-PDGFRA/F604S. This is associated with a reduced activation of SRC and CBL by FIP1L1-PDGFRA/F604S compared with the unmutated oncogene. As SRC inhibition and knockdown resulted in FIP1L1-PDGFRA stabilization, this explains the extended half-life of FIP1L1-PDGFRA/F604S. Interestingly, FIP1L1-PDGFRA/L629P, a recently identified mutation in an ima...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
