项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Anoxia (lack of oxygen) followed by reoxygenation causes severe detrimental effects in a wide variety of medical conditions, including ischemic reperfusion injury and myocardial infarction. How animals sense anoxia- reoxygenation and prevent tissue injury are fundamental and unanswered issues. The transcription factor hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) is a key cell protector against anoxia-reoxygenation (A/R)-induced injury. The discovery of the C. elegans gene egl-9, which encodes an O2-sensing prolyl hydroxylase of HIF-1, has led to the identification of an evolutionarily conserved pathway central for maintaining O2 homeostasis in organisms from nematodes to humans. Inhibition of mammalian HIF hydroxylase homologs of EGL-9 strongly protects from myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury. Using automated behavioral tracking under conditions of changing O2 concentrations, I discovered a locomotary behavior called the O2-ON response and have shown that the O2-ON response can model key aspects of mammalian tissue response to ischemia-reperfusion injury. EGL-9 is essential for the O2-ON response and mediates the effect of hypoxic preconditioning on the suppression of the O2-ON response. From a series of genetic screens, I discovered CYSL-1 as a new regulator of EGL-9 and a Cytochrome P450 enzyme that generates eicosanoid signaling molecules downstream of EGL-9 to control the O2-ON response. I also isolated C. elegans mutants that define additional novel regulators and targets of the EGL-9/HIF-1 pathway. The overall goal of this project is to clone the genes defined by these mutants and identify the novel conserved regulators of biological responses to A/R, which is modulated by the EGL-9 pathway, and determine the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms. In the K99 phase of this project, I will establish and characterize C. elegans behavioral and cellular models for ischemia-reperfusion injury. In the R00 phase of this project, I will further determine the key mechanisms by which A/R causes the O2-ON response and identify novel conserved regulators and targets of the EGL-9 pathway, which mediates protection from A/R-induced cellular injury and behavioral response to A/R. Using combined molecular, cellular and behavioral analyses together with powerful genetic screens, I will systematically dissect the genetic pathways and define the fundamental mechanisms that regulate cellular and animal responses to A/R. With the support of and training opportunities provided by K99/R00, I plan to expand my current experimental and intellectual skills and develop expertise in areas of O2-related biology and diseases, which is vital to my career goal of directing an independent and successful research laboratory.

描述（由申请人提供）：缺氧（缺氧）和随后的再氧合会在多种医疗状况中造成严重的有害影响，包括缺血性再灌注损伤和心肌梗塞。动物如何感知缺氧-复氧并防止组织损伤是基本且尚未解决的问题。转录因子缺氧诱导因子 (HIF) 是抵抗缺氧复氧 (A/R) 诱导损伤的关键细胞保护因子。秀丽隐杆线虫基因egl-9的发现，编码HIF-1的O2感应脯氨酰羟化酶，导致鉴定出一条进化上保守的途径，该途径对于维持从线虫到人类的生物体中的 O2 稳态。抑制 EGL-9 的哺乳动物 HIF 羟化酶同系物可有效防止心肌缺血和再灌注损伤。在改变 O2 浓度的条件下使用自动行为跟踪，我发现了一种称为 O2-ON 反应的运动行为，并表明 O2-ON 反应可以模拟哺乳动物组织对缺血再灌注损伤反应的关键方面。 EGL-9 对于 O2-ON 反应至关重要，并介导低氧预处理对 O2-ON 反应抑制的影响。通过一系列基因筛选，我发现 CYSL-1 是 EGL-9 的新调节因子，也是一种细胞色素 P450 酶，可在 EGL-9 下游产生类二十烷酸信号分子以控制 O2-ON 反应。我还分离出了秀丽隐杆线虫突变体，它们定义了 EGL-9/HIF-1 途径的其他新型调节因子和靶标。该项目的总体目标是克隆这些突变体定义的基因，并鉴定由 EGL-9 途径调节的 A/R 生物反应的新型保守调节因子，并确定潜在的分子和细胞机制。在该项目的 K99 阶段，我将建立并表征线虫缺血再灌注损伤的行为和细胞模型。在该项目的 R00 阶段，我将进一步确定 A/R 引起 O2-ON 反应的关键机制，并确定 EGL-9 途径的新型保守调节因子和靶标，该途径介导对 A/R 诱导的细胞的保护对 A/R 的伤害和行为反应。通过结合分子、细胞和行为分析以及强大的遗传筛选，我将系统地剖析遗传途径并定义调节细胞和动物对 A/R 反应的基本机制。在 K99/R00 的支持和培训机会下，我计划扩展我目前的实验和智力技能，并发展 O2 相关生物学和疾病领域的专业知识，这对于我指导独立且成功的研究的职业目标至关重要实验室。
