The overexpression. of Bax inhibitor-1 (BI-1) in prostate carcinoma and prostate cancer cell lines was confirmed by using Northern blot and Western blot analyses. Quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) on intact RNAs from 17 paired laser-captured microdissected epithelial tissue samples confirmed up-regulated BI-1 expression in 11 of 17 prostate tumors. In addition, it was demonstrated that BI-1 expression is down-regulated in stromal cells as. compared to matched normal epithelial cells of the prostate. In situ hybridization experiments on prostate sections also revealed that BI-1 expression is mainly restricted to epithelial cells. Furthermore, quantitative RT-PCR on RNAs derived from five benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) samples showed no significant difference in BI-1 expression as compared to normal epithelial prostate tissue. To determine the function of BI-1 in vitro, human PC-3, LNCaP, and DU-145 prostate carcinoma cells were transfected with small interfering double-strand RNA (siRNA) oligonucleotides against the BI-1 gene leading to a specific down-regulation of BI-1 expression. Furthermore, transfection of PC-3, LNCaP, and DU-145 cells with BI-1 sequence-specific siRNAs caused a significant increase in spontaneous apoptosis in all cell lines. Taken together, our results indicate that the human BI-1 gene contains the potential to serve as a prostate cancer expression marker and as a potential target for developing therapeutic strategies for prostate cancer."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1016/S0002-9440(10)63682-6"],["dc.identifier.isi","000184366400016"],["dc.identifier.pmid","12875974"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/45473"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Amer Soc Investigative Pathology, Inc"],["dc.relation.issn","0002-9440"],["dc.title","Bax inhibitor-1 is overexpressed in prostate cancer and its specific down-regulation by RNA interference leads to cell death in human prostate carcinoma cells"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI PMID PMC WOS2014Journal Article Research Paper [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","1013"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","6"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Journal of Neurochemistry"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.lastpage","1023"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","129"],["dc.contributor.author","Liman, Jan"],["dc.contributor.author","Deeg, S."],["dc.contributor.author","Voigt, A."],["dc.contributor.author","Voßfeldt, H."],["dc.contributor.author","Dohm, C.

In case of SCA3, mutation of Ataxin-3 results in aggregation of misfolded protein, formation of intranuclear as well as cytosolic inclusion bodies and cell death in distinct neuronal populations. Since cyclin-dependent kinase-5 (CDK5) has been shown to exert beneficial effects on aggregate formation and cell death in various polyglutamine diseases, we tested its therapeutic potential for SCA3. Our data show increased caspase-dependent Ataxin-3 cleavage, aggregation, and neurodegeneration in the absence of sufficient CDK5 activity. This disease-propagating effect could be reversed by mutation of the caspase cleavage site in Ataxin-3. Moreover, reduction of CDK5 expression levels by RNAi in vivo enhances SCA3 toxicity as assayed in a Drosophila model for SCA3. In summary, we present CDK5 as a potent neuroprotectant, regulating cleavage and thereby toxicity of Ataxin-3 and other polyglutamine proteins. We propose that increased caspase-dependent cleavage of mutated Ataxin-3, because of missing CDK5 shielding, leads to aggregation and cell death. Moreover, reduction of CDK5 expression levels by RNAi in vivo enhances SCA3 toxicity as assayed in a Drosophila model for SCA3. We think that CDK5 functions as a shield against cleavage-induced toxification and thereby is an interesting target for therapeutic intervention in polyQ disease in general."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1111/jnc.12684"],["dc.identifier.gro","3142111"],["dc.identifier.isi","000337760500011"],["dc.identifier.pmid","24548080"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/4666"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","WoS Import 2017-03-10"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","PUB_WoS_Import"],["dc.relation.eissn","1471-4159"],["dc.relation.issn","0022-3042"],["dc.title","CDK5 protects from caspase-induced Ataxin-3 cleavage and neurodegeneration"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI PMID PMC WOS2009Conference Abstract [["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","Journal of Neurochemistry"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","110"],["dc.contributor.author","Butler, Erin K."],["dc.contributor.author","Voigt, Aaron"],["dc.contributor.author","Schulz, Joerg B."],["dc.date.accessioned","2018-11-07T11:25:05Z"],["dc.date.available","2018-11-07T11:25:05Z"],["dc.date.issued","2009"],["dc.format.extent","180"],["dc.identifier.isi","000268550400479"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/56553"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Wiley-blackwell Publishing, Inc"],["dc.publisher.place","Malden"],["dc.relation.conference","22nd Biennial Meeting of the International-Society-of-Neurochemistry/Asian-Pacific-Society-for-Neuroc hemistry"],["dc.relation.eventlocation","Busan, SOUTH KOREA"],["dc.relation.issn","0022-3042"],["dc.title","ALPHA SYNUCLEIN NEUROTOXICITY MODIFIED BY MITOCHONDRIAL CHAPERONE PROTEIN TRAP1"],["dc.type","conference_abstract"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details WOS2010Journal Article [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","no"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","26"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","ChemInform"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.lastpage","no"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","29"],["dc.contributor.author","MURUGAVEL, R."],["dc.contributor.author","VOIGT, A."],["dc.contributor.author","WALAWALKAR, M.

To investigate its role during development and in disease models, we generated Faim2-deficient mice. The ubiquitous null mutation displayed a viable and fertile phenotype without overt deficiencies.

To obtain insight into the function different aggregated alpha S species have in neurotoxicity in vivo, we generated alpha S variants by a structure-based rational design. Biophysical analysis revealed that the alpha S mutants have a reduced fibrillization propensity, but form increased amounts of soluble oligomers. To assess their biological response in vivo, we studied the effects of the biophysically defined pre-fibrillar alpha S mutants after expression in tissue culture cells, in mammalian neurons and in PD model organisms, such as Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster.
