Article Abstract
Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) A2/B1 is involved in the synthesis of RNA. Its expression is up-regulated in many tumor cell lines. In this study, we investigated the distribution of hnRNP A2/B1 in the nuclear matrix, including its co-localization with expression products of related genes. Results from 2-DE PAGE and MS showed that hnRNP A2/B1 is involved with components of nuclear matrix proteins of SK-N-SH cells, and that its expression level is down-regulated after retinoic acid (RA) treatment. Protein immunoblotting results further confirm the existence of hnRNP A2/B1 in the nuclear matrix, as well as its down-regulation after RA treatment. Immunofluorescence microscopy observation showed that hnRNP A2/B1 localized in nuclear matrix of SK-N-SH cells and its distribution regions were altered after RA treatment. Laser scanning confocal microscopy observation showed that hnRNP A2/B1 co-localized with c-Myc, c-Fos, P53, and Rb in SK-N-SH cells. The co-localized region was altered as a result of RA treatment. Our data proved that hnRNP A2/B1 is a nuclear matrix protein and can be up-regulated in human neuroblastoma. The expression and distribution of hnRNP A2/B1 can affect the differentiation of SK-N-SH cells, as well as its co-localization with related oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes.

DKC1-mediated pseudouridylation of rRNA targets hnRNP A1 to sustain IRES-dependent translation and ATF4-driven metabolic adaptation.

The pseudouridine synthase DKC1 regulates internal ribosome entry site (IRES)-dependent translation and is up-regulated in cancers by the MYC family of oncogenes. The functional significance of DKC1 up-regulation and the mechanistic connection between pseudouridylation and IRES-mediated translation remain poorly understood. Here, we report that DKC1 drives an ATF4-mediated transcriptional program that supports amino acid metabolism and stress adaptation.

TDP-43, an RNA-binding protein (RBP) encoded by the TARDBP gene, is crucial for understanding the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration. Dysregulated TDP-43 causes motor neuron loss, highlighting the need for proper expression levels. Here, we identify a dominant-negative isoform among the multiple TARDBP splicing variants and validate its endogenous expression using a developed antibody against its translated product.

Aims: Sevoflurane can aggravate the progression of neurodegeneration, although the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Our previous study identified a link between heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A2/B1 (hnRNPA2/B1) and sevoflurane-induced neurocognitive impairments. The abnormal hydrogel phase transition of stress granules (SGs) assembled via liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) by hnRNPA2/B1 is a crucial element in neurodegeneration.

Introduction: Splicing protein mislocalization is associated with tau pathogenesis, but its role in Down syndrome (DS) is under-investigated.
Methods: Spliceosome associations with tau and plaque pathology were examined in frontal cortex from DS with dementia (DSD+) and without dementia (DSD-) using quantitative immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry.
Results: U1-70K and U1A levels were downregulated, and hnRNPA2B1, 3Rtau, and 4Rtau were upregulated, whereas SRSF2 and CLK1 were unchanged in DSD+.

Oligodendrocyte dysfunction, myelin degeneration, and white matter changes are critical events in the cognitive decline of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Amyloid-β peptide (Aβ), a hallmark of AD, disrupts oligodendrocyte and myelin homeostasis, through mechanisms that remain poorly understood. Here, transcriptomic profiling of Aβ-exposed oligodendrocytes revealed widespread gene expression changes, particularly in RNA-related processes.
