Pełny tekst źródłaThis doctoral thesis is the result of the work done in the Service of Respiratory Medicine of the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau in Barcelona and the Institute of Biomedical Research of Sant Pau (IIB Sant Pau), following the regulations of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. The study of bronchial inflammation in asthma has become a valuable tool for its diagnosis, monitoring and prediction of therapeutic responses. In recent years, there has been an increased interest in methods of noninvasive evaluation of the airway inflammation. The described non-invasive methods used in the clinical practice to assess airway inflammation include the inflammatory cell counts in induced sputum and the fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO). The exhaled breath temperature and the electronic nose device are considered to be new tools for measuring airway inflammation and control of asthma. The line of the developed research had as a main goal to improve the knowledge of inflammatory phenotypes of asthma through non-invasive methods. It is based on three projects. The first (1) is a clinical project that shows a high percentage of patients with dissociation between the results of the FeNO and eosinophils in induced sputum, presenting clinical and inflammatory differential characteristics. The other two projects provide an insight into the utility of two non-invasive diagnostic methods: 2) the exhaled breath temperature (EBT) and 3) the recognition of the patterns formed by organic volatile compounds using the electronic nose device. The second study does not support the usefulness of the EBT plateau, because no correlation was found between EBT and control of asthma, severity of disease, bronchial obstruction or bronchial inflammation. Furthermore, the results of the third study were encouraging since the using of an e-nose device in a regular clinical setting can reliably discriminate different inflammatory asthma phenotypes among patients with persistent asthma. Thus, the results of this thesis disclosed the applicability of various non-invasive methods performed in routine clinical practice.

Pełny tekst źródłaLas invasiones biológicas son una de las principales amenazas para la biodiversidad en todo el mundo; una forma de entender por qué algunas especies son más invasoras que otras, es analizando sus rasgos fenotípicos (o rasgos funcionales) relevantes para el desempeño, pero en un contexto biogeográfico, o sea comparar estos rasgos entre individuos provenientes de rangos nativos y los rangos invadidos. Esta comparación puede ser considerada un experimento biogeográfico y puede servir también para estudiar el potencial evolutivo de las especies enfrentadas a nuevos ambientes. Para este trabajo se compararon dos regiones invadidas (Chile y Nueva Zelanda) con su correspondiente región nativa (California) en una especie de hierba originaria de California, Eschscholzia californica. Los rasgos a comparar fueron a) Tamaño de semilla b) Fecundidad c) Presión de propágulo y las comparaciones fueron California vs Chile y California vs Nueva Zelanda, considerando dos poblaciones locales sometidas a diferentes temperaturas ambientales (10°C y 12°C). Los resultados han mostrado diferencias entre las regiones sugiriendo que las plantas producen semillas más grandes en las regiones invadidas, teniendo relación con su origen como planta ornamental lo que podría estar dándole ventajas para invadir, para la región nativa la fecundidad pareciera ser mayor y presión de propágulo no muestras diferencias, sin embargo, las diferencias locales son aparentemente más importantes. Finalmente, el análisis de componentes principales mostró más cercanía entre nueva Zelanda y California que California y Chile.
Biological invasions constitute a biodiversity threat worldwide; One way to understand why some species are more invasive than others are to analyse their phenotypic traits (or functional traits) relevant for fitness ideally between invaded range in relation to native ranges. These comparisons can be considered a biogeographical experiment which can help to elucidate the evolutionary potential of species facing to new environments. in this study, we examined two invaded regions (Chile and New Zealand) and the native range of Eschscholzia californica, a perennial grass original to California. We compared traits such as Seed size, Fecundity and Propagule pressure and the comparisons were California vs Chile and California vs New Zealand; at each region, we considered two local populations which differ in the thermal environment: (10°C and 12°C). Our results have shown differences between the regions suggesting that the plants produce bigger seeds in the invaded regions, In opposition to our expectations, at the native range fecundity was higher and for propagule pressure there were no differences. Local differences between populations, seem to be more important to take account to phenotypic variability. Finally, the principal components analysis showed more proximity between New Zealand and California than California and Chile.

In our first experiment, we subjected Cardamine impatiens to non-shaded cages, 54%, or 76% shade intensity. Plants died very quickly, so LD50 data were used as a relative measure of fitness, and relative growth indices were calculated over time. Other relative measures of fitness included canopy area, leaf area, number of leaves, number of leaves per canopy area, and final plant weight. Plants in cages with no shade treatment grew faster than those in cages with shade cloth and final plant weight decreased as shade treatment percentage increased. In each population, the number of leaves increased over time and the number of leaves per canopy area decreased over time under shade treatments.
Our second experiment involved the application of 54%, 76%, and 91% shade intensity. The additional shade treatment of 91% was applied to determine the extent of plant tolerance and plasticity in response to light reduction. Due to high plant mortality in our first experiment, we treated Cardamine impatiens with a 4 week cold period prior to treatment, which simulates its biennial growth form in its natural western Virginia region habitat. Since this second experiment took place later in the year, day length was extended to more accurately duplicate the conditions during the first experiment. LD50 calculations were not necessary, and 7 of the 135 plants produced seed. Relative measures of fitness included canopy area, leaf area, number of leaves, number of leaves per canopy area, and final plant weights. As in experiment one, the number of leaves per plant increased over time, final plant weight decreased as shade treatment increased, and the number of leaves per canopy area decreased as shade treatment increased.
From these two experiments, we determined that Cardamine impatiens is a species that exhibits phenotypic plasticity and therefore may pose a threat as an invasive species. C. impatiens is able to grow and exhibit plasticity of plant architecture under the conditions of very low light. The number of leaves per canopy area decreased as shade increased, suggesting that C. impatiens is highly adaptable to low light conditions, and therefore may be exhibiting phenotypic plasticity by reallocating its resources by producing fewer leaves while maintaining canopy area. This data along with other C. impatiens traits such as high levels needed for seed production, its persistence in seed banks, along with a lack of known major enemies, indicates that they have a great capacity to invade a wide variety of habitats. We also determined that a cold treatment is necessary in order for C. impatiens to obtain optimal growth and reproduction.

When species invade a new area, they often face different climates that make can make survival and reproduction challenging. In response, species may alter traits in order to adjust to new temperatures and conditions. In this dissertation, I examine trait changes in a tropical lizard that has successfully invaded a cooler temperate climate, specifically examining traits that may help them to survive and reproduce in their new range. First, I examined physiological traits, as I predicted greater cold tolerance would be necessary to survival in the invasive range. I found that invasive populations tolerated lower temperatures, could sprint faster, and had higher metabolism than native populations. Next, I examined how reproductive traits may change in the invasive range in order to facilitate reproduction under shorter breeding and growing seasons. I found that compared to native females, invasive females had less time between egg lays and produced eggs that hatched more quickly. Once I assessed how traits may have changed in the new range, I determined whether changes resulted from evolution or not. I found that differences in low temperature tolerance, metabolic rate, the time between egg lays, and incubation period were the result of evolution, while sprint speed did not seem to be the result of evolution. My results provide evidence that traits can evolve rapidly during invasion, allowing invasive species to persist and spread in new areas.

Invasive species threaten our natural ecosystems, our agricultural systems, and even our infrastructure, and we spend billions of dollars each year attempting to control them and reduce their negative impacts. Climate change, habitat destruction, and other forms of global change, will benefit many of these species, magnifying their impacts and promoting their invasion into new territories. Because of the damaging effects of invasive species, and the costs to control them, it is imperative that we are able to predict how they will respond to global change so that we can improve plans to reduce their impact and spread. First, we need to understand the processes that promote their invasion across large swaths of land. Just as importantly, we must study the processes that prevent their invasion of certain areas. Here, I investigated some of the processes that have facilitated, as well as hampered, the spread of the invasive plant Johnsongrass. For this work, I used Johnsongrass plants originating from different habitats, including regions where Johnsongrass is highly invasive and those where Johnsongrass is very rare. I found Johnsongrass originating from regions where it is highly invasive were able to grow very large and produce thousands of seeds that were able to germinate under a range of conditions. These traits may have contributed to the invasion success of this species. However, I found a different pattern for plants that originated from regions where Johnsongrass is rare. These plants reached reproductive age earlier and grew smaller across all environmental conditions, potentially due to the less hospitable climates of these range edges. These findings allow us to project into future climate change scenarios, because it is likely that, as temperatures warm, invasive species will be able to invade new regions, where they will impact the work of conservationists, natural resource professionals, agricultural produces, and other land managers.

Pełny tekst źródłaThe Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas is an important commercial species in France. The wide distribution of this species during the last decade quickly led to the developmeht of “wild” populations mainly in rocky intertidal areas. C. Gigas is now considered an invasive species in various parts of the world. The main objective of this work was to characterize the adaptative capabilities of C. Giqas in Brittany using genetic and physiological approaches at different spatial and temporal scales. Using exonic markers, significant genetic structures were observed between populations of adult oysters along the French coasts. In contrast, this difference was not observed using microsatellites. The study at the micro-scale, demonstrated no significant difference in allelic frequencies between oysters at high and low tidal heights, except at the MPI locus via allozymes analysis. At three sites f rom Brittany, significant genetic structure was observed between adult and juvenile oysters recruited in 2005 and 2006 and also between these same juveniles and cultivated spat. In the second part of this study, several physiological indicators of health and fitness-related traits were assessed on adults from the three sites described above. Strong significant differences were found between sex and gametogenesis stages throughout the year 2005. In contras no differential physiological performance was illustrated between adults at macro and micro-spatial scales. In conclusion, aIl of these results suggest a high potential of invasion for as that correspond to the compound of phenotypic plasticity and all above local selection applied to its high genetic diversity

Pełny tekst źródłaAbstract: In the context of the expansion of invasive species, their survival is conditioned by their ability to adapt. In France, Ludwigia grandiflora has invaded aquatic biotopes and its recent deployment in wet meadows has led to the emergence of two morphotypes, one aquatic and the other called “terrestrial”. The aim of this thesis was to get a better understanding of water primrose acclimation capacities to terrestrial environment through exploring genetic and epigenetic sources of flexibility. The responses of two morphotypes to different water stresses were evaluated by observing physiological traits. The epigenetic pathway was addressed by the use of a hypomethylant drug. This work showed that L. grandiflora adapts its development and metabolism according to environmental conditions.The terrestrial morphotype shows higher trait values than those of the aquatic morphotype, regardless of the condition. However, phenotypic plasticity is higher in the aquatic morphotype. Finally, our results suggest the involvement of DNA methylation and phenotypic plasticity in the response of water primrose to environmental change. Since the terrestrial morphotype has higher capacities than the aquatic morphotype, its management must become a priority. The acquisition of genomic resources in L. grandiflora will make it possible to search for genetic and epigenetic markers of acclimation to the terrestrial environment

Pełny tekst źródłaGlobal trade and human movements increase the likelihood of long-distance transportation of propagules and their subsequent introduction into new geographic regions. In some instances, newly established species can become dominant in invaded communities, at the expense of native species. Besides threatening invaded communities and ecosystem functions, biological invasions constitute natural experiments that allow to study eco-evolutionary processes in real time, including the occurrence of new biotic interactions affecting community composition, rapid adaptation to novel environmental conditions, or dispersal evolution at range margins. Because of their impoverished native communities, oceanic islands’ ecosystems are particularly sensitive to biological invasions, and the French subantarctic islands are no exception. For instance, the flightless predatory carabid beetle Merizodus soledadinus is native from the southern tip of South America, and has been accidentally introduced to the Kerguelen Islands in 1913. In the present work, we aimed at understanding the main mechanisms underlying the invasive success of this insect at the Kerguelen Islands. Using a vast array of methodologies, ecological features of M. soledadinus were investigated with analytical procedures scaling from population to molecule through the individual level. Genetic investigations support the historically-based hypothesis of a single introduction event at a unique location of the Kerguelen Islands. No genetic structure was observed among individuals sampled from different populations along the invasion gradient. We tested the hypothesis of spatial sorting of populations during range expansion, by exploring phenotypic changes among individuals sampled along the invasion gradient. The measured phenotypic traits revealed major differentiation of adults according to the residence time of their populations, confirming the occurrence of spatial sorting of populations during geographic expansion. We also demonstrated that the geographic expansion of M. soledadinus, and microhabitat selection, are primarily governed by the availability of water resources, as suggested by the high sensitivity to water stress of adults of this ground beetle. In parallel, colonisation of altitudinal habitats is governed by thermal conditions, which seem to be physiologically constraining from 200m asl onwards. As the altitudinal distribution of M. soledadinus still extends, we concluded that ongoing climatic changes play a pivotal role in this expansion. Finally, adults of this ground beetle are long-lived and active year-round. The ecological knowledge of M. soledadinus characteristics and spatial expansion dynamics suggest that the colonisation process of the Kerguelen archipelago by this species will continue. Altogether, these data could be used for parametrising range expansion models that would delineate dispersal pathways and expansion rates, in the objective to assist stakeholders’ management decisions

Pełny tekst źródłaBiological invasions are a component of global change and have dramatic effects on ecosystems, agrosystems and human health. Nonetheless, these peculiar biological processes offer a great opportunity for the study of rapid phenotypic and genetic evolution, at an ecological timescale. Biological invasions often involve environmental and demographic constraints on populations, as well as strong effects of selection and drift. However, these species are among the most successful colonialists in nature, and their ability to respond to these constraints is remarkable. The evolutionary and adaptive potential of invasive populations have been proposed as facilitating factors of the success of invasions. Processes of genetic (i.e. changes in allele frequencies) and plastic (i.e. adjustment to environmental fluctuation through phenotypic plasticity) involved in the success of biological invasions are at the center of modern evolutionary biology. Here, we use the recent spread of the spotted-wing Drosophila suzukii to study the underlying mechanisms of response to selection potentially involved in the success of this global invasion. Analyzing patterns of neutral genetic variation allowed us to decipher the complex history of this worldwide invasion, and subsequently evaluate phenotypic divergence and evolution of quantitative genetic variation among ancestral and derived populations. We thus estimated the effects of selection and drift throughout this invasion and discuss their importance regarding the evolution of wing shape in this species. Finally, experimental protocols on the analysis of phenotypic plasticity as well as Species Distribution Modeling methods allowed us to discuss the influence of environmental fluctuations on the success of this invasion

Resumo: As espécies invasoras são reconhecidas como um dos mais importantes e difíceis fatores que influenciam a conservação dos ecossistemas nativos. Na restauração de ambientes degradados, estas espécies podem afetar profundamente a trajetória do recobrimento vegetal pelas espécies nativas e, conseqüentemente, a composição do ecossistema. Um fator importante para o sucesso de algumas espécies vegetais invasoras é a plasticidade fenotípica, dandolhes grande capacidade de aclimatação em diversas condições ambientais. O conhecimento dos fatores ambientais e das características da planta que contribuem para o sucesso das espécies invasoras é de grande importância para predizer a habilidade de invasão e para esforços de manejo. Neste contexto, o objetivo principal deste estudo foi conhecer algumas características fisiológicas e ecológicas de Clausena excavata Burm. f., uma espécie de árvore exótica reconhecida como invasora em algumas regiões no mundo, no intuito de compreender o sucesso da espécie como invasora e contribuir com informações relevantes para possíveis tentativas de controle. Primeiramente, foram avaliados os efeitos da luz e da temperatura em sua germinação (condição controlada) e o efeito da luz na emergência de suas plântulas (condição natural, a pleno sol e sob a copa das árvores). As sementes germinaram tanto na presença como na ausência de luz, nas temperaturas de 20 a 35°C, sem diferença entre a porcentagem de sementes germinadas nas diferentes temperaturas. Sementes mantidas a 20°C, em ambas as condições de luz, germinaram mais lentamente em relação às demais temperaturas. Independente da temperatura, na presença de luz as sementes apresentaram uma germinação muito mais sincronizada do que aquelas mantidas no escuro. Tais resultados mostraram que as sementes de C. excavata são fotoblásticas neutra. Em campo, a emergência... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)
Abstract: The invasive species are recognized one of more important and difficult factors that prejudice the conservation of native ecosystems. In the restoration of degraded environment, these species can to affect profoundly the trajectory of recovery by native species and, therefore, the ecosystems composition. An important factor to the success of invasive species is their phenotypic plasticity, which gives them a great ability to adjust in several environmental conditions. The knowledge of environmental factors and plant characteristics that contribute to the success of invasive species is very important to predict the invasion capacity and to manage efforts. In this context, the main objective of this study was to know some physiological and ecological characteristics of Clausena excavata Burm. f., a nonnative tree species recognized as invasive somewhere of the world, with intention to understand the success of this species as invasive and to contribute with relevant informations for a possible management. At first, were evaluated the effects of light and temperature on their seeds germination (controlled condition) and the effect of light on seedling emergence (natural condition, at full sun and shade). The seeds germinated in presence and absence of light, from 20 to 35°C, without difference among the germination percentage at different temperatures. Seeds maintained in 20°C, at both light conditions, germinated slowly than others temperatures. Independent of temperature, in light the seeds showed a germination more synchronized than the seeds kept in darkness. Those results showed that C. excavata have neuter photoblasics seeds. On the field, the emergence occurred at both environments, but at full sun all seeds produced a seedling. The seedling emergence occurred with same rate and synchronization index on two tested conditions. Thereafter, the seedlings were observed with purpose...

Pełny tekst źródłaBackground: Breast carcinomas consist phenotypically of diverse cells and exhibit intra tumoral heterogeneity being stratified in several subgroups based in gene expression profiles or histochemical biomarkers. It was suggested that this heterogeneity is derived in part from the transformation of different subsets of cancer stem cells (CSC) in each intrinsic subgroup. The presence of CSC can be evidenced by phenotypic analysis of CD44 e CD24. This study aimed to identify the CD24 and CD44 immunophenotype within invasive ductal breast carcinoma (IDC) subtypes and determine its influence on prognosis as well as its association with the expression of Ki67, citokeratins (CK5, CK6 and CK18) and claudin-7. Methods: Immuno expression of CD44 and CD24 alone or in combination was investigated in 95 IDC cases arranged in a tissue microarray (TMA). The association with intrinsic subgroups defined as luminal A (ER+, PR+, HER2-), luminal B (ER and or PR+, HER2+), HER2 subtype (ER-, PR-, HER2+) and triple negative (ER-, PR-, HER2-), and the other markers and prognosis was analyzed. Results: CD44+CD24- and CD44-CD24+ were respectively presents in 8.4% and 16.8% of the tumors, a lack of both proteins was detected in 6.3%, while CD44+CD24+ was determined in 45.3% of the tumors. Although there was no significant correlation between subgroups and different phenotypes, the CD44+CD24- phenotype was more common in the basal subgroups but the frequency of this subtype has not been associated with clinical characteristic or biological markers. The phenotype was absent in HER2 tumors whereas luminal tumors are enriched in CD44-CD24+ and CD44+CD24+ cells which did not show associations with clinical/biological markers features. There was also no significant association of the subtypes with the event free (DFS) and overall survival (OS) but the CD44+CD24- phenotype showed a more favorable prognostic as compared to CD44-CD44+ phenotype that showed a worse prognosis (p = 0.26) (median follow up, 4.8 years) CD44+ alone was evident in 57.9%, while CD24+ was positive in 74.7% of the tumors, the latter showing a significant association with ER, PR and Ki67 and a marginal association with CK18 and claudin-7. Expression of claudin-7 and Ki67 did not associate with the cancer subgroups, while a positive association between CK18 and the luminal subgroups was found. CD44+ was not significantly associated with OS (p = 0.684) and DFS (p = 0.386) whereas CD24+ expression was also no significantly associated with OS (p = 0.32) but was associated with a decrease in DFS (p = 0.07). CK5, CK18 and Ki67 expression had no influence in OS or DFS, however claudin-7 positive although not statistically associated with OS, was associated with reduced DFS (p = 0.05). Conclusions: The heterogeneity of cells with several CD44CD24 expression may indicate the presence of different stem cell populations. Ocurrence of CD44+CD24- phenotype is more common in triple negative tumors and lower in tumors of luminal type and absent in HER2 tumors. Although not associated significantly with patho-biological markers or OS and DFS, the CD44+CD24- phenotype has a tendency to be a favorable prognostic marker in breast cancer raising the possibilty that the putative tumorigenic ability may no be restricted to cells of this phenotype. The presence of CD44-CD24+ may indicat a worse prognosis. CD24+ was associated with ER, PR, Ki67and showed a marginal association with CK18 and claudin-7. CD24 and Claudin-7 positivity were the only biological markers associated with reduced DFS. These two investigated markers can be used to improve the assessement of prognosis in breast cancer

Primeiramente, foram avaliados os efeitos da luz e da temperatura em sua germinação (condição controlada) e o efeito da luz na emergência de suas plântulas (condição natural, a pleno sol e sob a copa das árvores). As sementes germinaram tanto na presença como na ausência de luz, nas temperaturas de 20 a 35°C, sem diferença entre a porcentagem de sementes germinadas nas diferentes temperaturas. Sementes mantidas a 20°C, em ambas as condições de luz, germinaram mais lentamente em relação às demais temperaturas. Independente da temperatura, na presença de luz as sementes apresentaram uma germinação muito mais sincronizada do que aquelas mantidas no escuro. Tais resultados mostraram que as sementes de C. excavata são fotoblásticas neutra. Em campo, a emergência...

Pełny tekst źródłaHuman Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) infects macrophages. In contrast to CD4+ T cells, macrophages are resistant to the cytotoxic effects of the virus and represent a reservoir for the pathogen. In these cells, the new virions are produced and stored in a specific intracellular compartment called Virus-Containing Compartment (VCC). This non-acidic compartment, transiently connected to the plasma membrane, remains poorly characterized. In addition, HIV-1 induces an alteration of macrophage function, allowing the development of opportunistic bacteria, such as specific strains of Salmonella Typhimurium. In particular, we studied invasive non-typhoidal Salmonella Typhimurium (iNTS) strains that developed in HIV-positive patients. The aims of my thesis have been to identify the molecular factors involved in the production of HIV-1 in primary human macrophages and to study the development of the invasive strains of Salmonella Typhimurium. First, I participed in studying the effects of HIV-1 infection on macrophage function. Their main role is phagocytosis, which is a defense mechanism enabling internalization and degradation of pathogens. It has previously been shown in the host laboratory that in HIV-1 infected macrophages, the internalization step is partially inhibited by the virulence factor Nef. In this work, we have shown that the infection of these cells by HIV-1 also inhibits the maturation of phagosomes, in this case, via the viral protein Vpr. Further, we have demonstrated that HIV-1 leads to a pre-activation state of the macrophage, while preventing the cell from responding to subsequent stimuli, such as bacterial superinfection. Secondly, I studied the coinfections between HIV-1 and an invasive strain of Salmonella Typhimurium that was compared to reference strains. This work demonstrated that bacteria do not hijack the viral compartment for their survival in co-infected macrophages. Additionally, the invasive strain of Salmonella Typhimurium was observed to induce less cell death by pyroptosis than a reference strain. The signaling pathways upstream of this cell death were determined to be associated with an inflammatory mechanism. Hence, it was demonstrated that the invasive strain of Salmonella hijacks the mechanism of pyroptosis to survive in macrophages. This may explain the dissemination observed in patients. Finally, a study of new cellular factors involved in viral production in macrophages was conducted. Following a transcriptomic analysis of human primary macrophages infected, or not, with HIV-1, we identified a large number of membrane transporters called SLC (Solute Carrier) whose expression was modulated by the infection. After selecting some of the candidates for further study, I have demonstrated that some of these SLCs are important for viral production in macrophages. In conclusion, this work contributes to defining how HIV-1 infects macrophages and disturbs their activation and clearance functions, and how opportunistic pathogenic bacteria develop

Tumor metastasis is a major cause of death of cancer patients. By subtractive hybridization and cDNA microarray analysis, we have previously found that the expression levels of clusterin are higher in metastatic lung adenocarcinoma tumor than in primary tumor. In a highly invasive lung adenocarcinoma cell line CL1-5, siRNA-mediated knockdown of clusterin expression resulted in a decrease of the invasive and migratory capabilities of cells. Moreover, we have noted, based on cell morphology and expression patterns of marker proteins, that clusterin knockdown could change the mesenchymal-like phenotype of CL1-5 cells into an epithelial-like phenotype. The aim of this study is to further examine the role of clusterin in modulating cancer cell migration and invasion. First, we created a siRNA-resistant replacement vector to express a variant clusterin that contains silent mutations in the region targeted by siRNA. Stable transfection of the siRNA-resistant clusterin replacememt vector in clusterin knock-down stable clones restored the clusterin levels, and rescued the invasive and migratory phenotypes. However, we have not observed revertion of the clusterin knockdown-induced mesenchymal-to-epithelial transitions in the rescued clones. Furthermore, we found that clusterin replacement in clusterin knockdown clones resulted in increased levels of phosphorylated Erk. Consistently, treatment of CL1-5 cells with an Erk inhibitor, PD98059, inhibited Erk phosphorylation and SLUG expression, as well as cancer cell migration.

Metastasis often occurs in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and is the main difficulty in cancer treatment. The upregulation of poly-N-acetyllactosamine related glycosylation is found in CRC patients and is associated with progression and metastasis in cancer. B4GALT3 is an enzyme responsible for poly-N-acetyllactosamine synthesis, and therefore we investigated its expression in CRC patients. We found that B4GALT3 negatively correlated with poorly differentiated histology (P < 0.001), advanced stages (P = 0.0052), regional lymph node metastasis (P = 0.0018), and distant metastasis (P = 0.0463) in CRC patients. B4GALT3 overexpression in CRC cells suppressed cell migration, invasion, and adhesion, while B4GALT3 knockdown enhanced malignant cell phenotypes. The β1 integrin blocking antibody reversed the B4GALT3-mediated increase in cell invasion. B4GALT3 expression altered glycosylation on the N-glycan of β1 integrin probably through changes in poly-N-acetyllactosamine expression. Furthermore, more activated β1 integrin along with the activation of its downstream signaling transduction were found in B4GALT3-knockdown cells, whereas overexpression of B4GALT3 suppressed the expression of active β1 integrin and inhibited its downstream signaling. Our results suggest that B4GALT3 is negatively associated with CRC metastasis and suppresses cell invasiveness through inhibiting activation of β1 integrin.
