Triggering Dynamic Structural Changes in Model Lipid Membranes
Amphithéâtre Jacques Monod, sous-sol bâtiment Jacques Monod
Institut Pasteur
25,28 rue du Docteur Roux
Paris 15ème
Lundi 16
Lipid membrane structural dynamics and micromechanics are vitally important to a wide range of
cellular processes including mediating protein activity, signalling, material transport and apoptosis
(programmed cell death). Developing model systems to study the structural and energetic
behaviour of membranes, and methods to trigger changes in these parameters are essential to
understanding the contributions of the many components that make up biological membranes.

I am currently the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) postdoctoral fellow at the Department of
Microbiology and Immunobiology at Harvard Medical School, trying to use self-propelled intracellular
bacteria as kinematic probes for studying mechanical properties of the host cell. Physical properties
of living cells and tissues appeared to be crucially involved in many physiological and
pathophysiological processes such as emryo- and tumorigenesis. However, our understanding of the
physical biology of the cell is still in its infancy mainly due to the lack of appropriate experimental
tools and models. My experimental strategy contrasts conventional approaches that cell biologists
utilize to explore or manipulate basic cell processes. Traditionally, investigators have relied heavily
on pharmacological or genetic interventions which are rarely perfectly specific due to massive cell
stimulation and compensatory cell responses. Since pathogenic bacteria have co-evolved with their
hosts and fine-tuned their interactions, human cell biologists can learn much about basic mammalian
cell activities by watching how bacteria have learned to interfere with them.

The nitrate reductases that catalyze the two-electron reduction of nitrate to nitrite in
cyanobacteria – the first step in the assimilation of nitrate in photosynthetic organisms- is unique
in using reduced ferredoxin as the electron donor. In contrast, nitrate reductases found in
photosynthetic eukaryotes use NAD(P)H is the electron donor. These enzymes are monomeric
soluble proteins with molecular masses of ca. 78 kDA and contain one [4Fe-4S] cluster and a
single Mo bis-molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide (MGD as prosthetic groups. We have used
site-directed mutagenesis, in combination with in silico modeling of the likely three-dimensional
structure of the enzyme from Synechococcus sp. PCC 7942 to identify amino acids at the catalytic
site of the enzyme. Additional in silico studies have produced a model for the 1;1 complex formed
between the enzyme and ferredoxin and site-directed mutagenesis has been used to test the
model. Flash photolysis studies have been used to measure the rate of electron transfer from
photo-reduced ferredoxin to the enzyme. The last redox step in the pathway for nitrate
assimilation in photosynthetic organism involves the two-electron reduction of 2-oxoglutarate
plus glutamine to form two glutamates. Glutamate synthases, the enzymes t hat catalyze this
reaction, are soluble monomeric enzymes with molecular masses of ca. 170 kDa and contain one
[3Fe-4S] cluster and one FMN as prosthetic groups. In silico modeling and site-directed
mutagenesis have been used to map the interaction domain between the enzyme and
ferredoxin, in the 1:1 complex formed by the proteins from the cyanobacterium Synechocystis
sp. PCC 6803.

How long does it take a "searcher" to reach a "target" for the first time? This first-passage time is a key
quantity for evaluating the kinetics of various processes, and in particular chemical reactions involving
"small" numbers of particles. A striking example is given by gene transcription, where specific proteins
search for target sequences on DNA. I will present asymptotic results which enable the evaluation of
the distribution of the first-passage time to a target site for a wide range of random processes in
confined domains. This approach quantifies explicitly the amplitude of fluctuations of the first-passage
time and reveals its general dependence on the geometry of the problem, which can become a key
parameter that controls the kinetics. I will show how these results apply to reactions involving "small"
numbers of particles, and highlight their implications in transcription kinetics.

Exosomal miRNAs in tumor spread and as circulating cancer biomarkers
Centre de Recherche - Paris - Amphithéâtre Antoine Lacassagne
Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles (30-100 nm) that are secreted by most cell types. They can transfer their content
to other cells upon uptake and hereby modulate recipient cell characteristics. In cancer, exosome secretion is implicated
in primary tumor growth, modulation of local tumor microenvironment, and stimulation of distant metastatic niche
formation during tumor spread.

We have studied exosomes in relation to molecular events of bladder cancer aggressiveness as well as their utility in
diagnosis of colorectal cancer. We observed that exosomal pathways may discard tumor-suppressor miRNA that could
otherwise restrict metastatic progression. Secreted miRNA characterized from isogenic bladder carcinoma cell lines with
differing metastatic potential showed relative increase in secretion of miRNA with tumor-suppressor functions,
including miR23b, miR224, and miR921. Ectopic expression of miR23b inhibited invasion, anoikis, angiogenesis, and
pulmonary metastasis. Silencing of the exocytosis regulator RAB family members RAB27A or RAB27B halted miR23b and
miR921 secretion and reduced cellular invasion. Clinically, elevated levels of RAB27B expression were linked to poor
prognosis in two independent cohorts of patients with bladder cancer. Moreover, highly exocytosed miRNA from
metastatic cells, such as miR23b, were reduced in lymph node metastases compared with patient-matched primary
tumors and were correlated with increments in miRNA-targeted RNA. In colorectal cancer patients, immuno-affinity
capture of EpCAM+ extracellular vesicles in plasma identified specific cancer-related miRNAs that were present at
reduced abundance after surgical removal of the tumor.
10h30
During this talk, I will present our latest results suggesting exosome-mediated secretion of tumor-suppressor miRNAs as a
tumor-promoting mechanism and how analysis of circulating tumor-derived exosomes may serve as a tool for noninvasive diagnostic testing of cancer patients
