Abstract

Eduard Strasburgers monograph "On Cell Formation and Cell Division" appeared in Jena in 1875. At that time the existence of the cell nucleus was established, but the scientists were still discussing a possibility of free formation of cells as suggested by Schwann and Schleiden. Nuclear structure and the processes of mitosis were still uninvestigated. The original observations which are reproduced show the first tentative efforts at a generalised description. Comparison with the opinions of Haeckel and Flemming show the uncertainty of cytology in that early phase, because the lack of microscopic technique did not yet permit of any detailed evidence.

MondoA mediates transcriptional coordination between the MYC network and the integrated stress response in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

MYC amplification contributes to poor survival and outcome in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Here we show that in PDAC cell lines with amplified MYC, MondoA is required for viability, facilitating proliferation while suppressing apoptosis in vitro and in vivo. Transcriptional and genomic profiling demonstrates that loss of MondoA leads to altered expression of direct MondoA targets as well as MYC target genes and is accompanied by shifts in genomic occupancy of MYC, MNT, and the MondoA paralog ChREBP. This altered genomic binding by MYC network members is associated with transcriptional perturbation of multiple metabolic and stress pathways, as well as global changes in N6-methyladenosine modification (m6A) of mRNA. MondoA inhibition disrupts coordination between MYC network members and the Integrated Stress Response (ISR), resulting in decreased translation of ATF4 mRNA, discordant gene regulation of shared targets of MYC and ATF4 and, ultimately, apoptosis. Re-establishing ATF4 protein expression rescues the diminished viability due to loss of MondoA expression or activity, providing direct evidence of a link between deregulated MYC and the transcriptional machinery of the ISR. Lastly, we find that small-molecule inhibition of MondoA is lethal in a subset of PDAC cell lines, including patient-derived organoids, suggesting that the ability to target MYC via chemical inhibition of MondoA transcriptional activity may have broad efficacy.
