„Unravelling the Mechanism of Formation and the Functional Significance of the Novel, Glioblastoma-Specific Localization Pattern of HCMV Protein”.
Institute of Animal Reproduction and Food Research (IARFR)PAS, Department of Biology and Pathology of Human Reproduction Olsztyn, Poland.
Per e-mail to: a.andronowska@pan.olsztyn.pl
Deadline: 5 Sep 2023, 15:00 CET
Candidates need to apply to the Interdisciplinary Doctoral School of Agricultural Sciences of the IAR&FR for details and necessary forms please see.
Starting Date: Oct 2023
Length of scholarship: 48 months
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a malignant brain tumor. The prognosis for GBM patients after extensive treatment is very poor – 5 year survival rate is less than 10%. Additionally, the etiology and pathogenesis of this disease are still not understood. High percentage of glioblastomas were found to be positive for human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), which was found to be associated with worse prognosis for the patients. Adjuvant anti-HCMV treatments have shown increase in survival rates for GBM patients, confirming influence of HCMV infection on the outcome of the disease. The HCMV gene products were shown to influence glioblastoma proliferation and angiogenesis, induce apoptosis-resistance and immune evasion, suggesting an oncomodulatory role of HCMV in this disease. One of the HCMV proteins found in high percentage of glioblastomas is immediate early protein 1 (IE1). We detected a novel localization pattern of IE1 on mitotic chromosomes in glioblastoma cells. In addition to the known “chromosome painting” pattern we observed chromosome-associated spots (CAS) of IE1. This localization pattern was not present in other cell types of neural origin or other cells that support HCMV replication or latency, which are two known characteristics of the glioblastoma cells we used. We did, however detect it in another glioblastoma cell line, suggesting that the CAS localization of IE1 might be specific to glioblastoma. The goal of this project is to study chromatin association of HCMV IE1 protein in glioblastoma cells. Project will combine methods of virology, cell and molecular biology. We would like to study the possible function of the novel IE1 localization pattern. We believe that unravelling the function of IE1 CAS localization will not only further our understanding of the role that HCMV plays in glioblastoma, but may aid in future development of new therapeutic approaches targeting viral persistence.
TYPE of NCN grant: OPUS24 – NZ6.
Successful candidate will also be responsible for data analysis, writing publications and presenting results at seminars and conferences.

Project titled: pt. „Effect of embryonic signals on methylome of the porcine endometrium as a novel mechanism contributing to pregnancy establishment” (NCN OPUS 24 project)
PhD. supervisor/PI project: Prof. Agnieszka Wacławik
Early pregnancy in mammals is a critical period with high mortality rate of embryos. Developing embryos signal their presence to the maternal organism by secretions of various factors and molecules which are recognized among others in uterine endometrium. Primary porcine embryonic signal is estradiol.
Aim of the project is to determine the complex changes in the porcine endometrial methylome during early pregnancy and these evoked by estradiol action and finding the answer whether these changes may affect the expression of particular genes. Because endometrium is a complex tissue, some changes could be characteristic only for specific type of cells. Thus, in our approach we are going to determine spatial and temporal profiles of porcine endometrial methylome during early pregnancy and in response to estradiol treatment in vitro and in vivo. To reach our goal we are going to use ex vivo approach together with advanced in vitro models and also innovative in vivo model in which the estradiol was administered locally into uterine lumen to mimic conceptus signaling. The next aim of proposed project is to determine the effect of DNA methylation on endometrial gene expression, endometrial secretory function, proliferation and migration of endometrial cells.
During the 4-year-long, fully funded scholarship PhD student will be expected to perform research, laboratory analysis, write scientific articles, present the results during the international scientific conferences and – consequently – defend her/his PhD thesis at the Institute of Animal Reproduction and Food Research of Polish Academy of Sciences. High-level mentoring, detailed research agenda as well as full financial support for the research planned will be ensured to PhD candidate. Appropriate training on epigenetics, transcriptomics, and molecular analysis will be provided with the use of high-end, modern research infrastructure.
