Disease relevance of NR2E3

 

Psychiatry related information on NR2E3

  • A joint factor analysis of the ESCS and the NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI) scales led to a 5-factor solution, where all the factors that emerged were identified as the Big Five personality dimensions, the ESCS subscales loading most significantly on 3 of these factors: Neuroticism (N), Extraversion (E), and Openness to Experience (O) [6].

Biological context of NR2E3

 

Anatomical context of NR2E3

  • NR2E3, a photoreceptor-specific orphan nuclear receptor, is believed to play a pivotal role in the differentiation of photoreceptors [1].
  • The subject (Patient A) with no detected NR2E3 mutation had features not usually associated with ESCS, in particular moderate rod photoreceptor function in peripheral retina and an abnormally thick retinal nerve fibre layer [16].
  • Our studies suggest that, based on its temporal and spatial expression, NR2E3 acts simultaneously in different cell types: in late mitotic progenitors, newly differentiating post mitotic cells, and mature rods and cones [17].
  • NR2E3 mRNA was detected in the adrenal gland, thyroid gland, prostate, testis, uterus, trachea, and salivary gland [18].
  • It examines the relationship between the effectiveness of epidural spinal cord stimulation (ESCS) and diseases or sites of pain [19].
 

Associations of NR2E3 with chemical compounds

  • The interaction of NR2E3 with NR1D1 was confirmed by glutathione S-transferase pulldown and co-immunoprecipitation experiments [1].
  • The frequency of triplets decays in the order RNY greater than RNR greater than YNY greater than YNR; R being a purine (guanine or adenine), Y is a pyrimidine (cytosine or uracil), and N is any base [20].
  • An oligodeoxynucleotide phosphorothioate that is complementary to sequences around the translational initiation codon of the small RNR subunit showed significant inhibition of growth, as measured by the inhibition in DNA synthesis [11].
  • In this report, we examined the mode of nitrite reductase (PNR) release from a serum-sensitive strain of live P. aeruginosa cells during in vitro treatment with four different antimicrobial agents or human complement [21].
  • Among these agents, imipenem demonstrated rapid killing of P. aeruginosa as well as rapid release of PNR and resulted in the highest IL-8 production [21].
 

Other interactions of NR2E3

  • RESULTS: NR2E3 expression was detected shortly after the appearance of NRL in putative immature rods on the foveal edge at Fwk 11 [22].
  • Gene profiling of FACS-purified photoreceptors confirmed the role of NR2E3 as a strong suppressor of cone genes but an activator of only a subset of rod genes (including rhodopsin) in vivo [23].
  • NRL, CRX and NR2E3 are key transcriptional regulators that control photoreceptor differentiation [23].
  • The CPRD patients without NR2E3 mutations had no detected mutations in NRL or THRB1 [2].
  • Mutation screening of the NR2E3 gene, which encodes a photoreceptor-specific orphan nuclear receptor, was performed with polymerase chain reaction amplification and direct sequencing [24].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of NR2E3

  • In order to gain insights into the NR2E3 function, we performed temporal and spatial expression analysis, yeast two-hybrid screening, promoter activity assays and co-immunoprecipitation studies [1].
  • METHODS: Expression of NR2E3, a photoreceptor-specific orphan nuclear receptor, was examined in human retinas between fetal weeks (Fwk) 9 to 22 by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and in situ hybridization [22].
  • Both NR2E3 and NRL expression patterns were followed by immunocytochemistry [22].
  • Northern blot and reverse transcription-PCR analyses of human mRNA samples demonstrate that RNR is expressed exclusively in the retina, with transcripts of approximately 7.5 kb, approximately 3.0 kb, and approximately 2.3 kb by Northern blot analysis [10].
  • Mutation screening of the NR2E3 gene was performed with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and direct sequencing [25].
