The current class of Tsinghua University visiting research scholars at the University of Pittsburgh will present their work during virtual poster sessions from 1–2 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday, April 28 and 29 via Zoom. For Tsinghua scholars, participation in such poster sessions provides an important opportunity to practice describing their scientific research in a professional setting before mentors, fellow students, and other trainees and faculty.
In a collaboration that began in 2011, medical students from Tsinghua University in Beijing, China, come to the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine for a two-year biomedical research training program. Periodic poster sessions typically take place yearly in Pittsburgh and Beijing to build relationships and educate each site about the other’s work.
A downloadable copy of the poster abstracts can be found here.

Work-in-Progress Conference & Seminar Series
“Investigating the immune microenvironment of primary estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer”
Sayali Onkar
PhD candidate, Vignali and Oesterreich Labs, Department of Immunology (PMI),
University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine
Objective:
- Immunotherapy has revolutionized outcomes in several different tumor types but is relatively unsuccessful in treating ER+ breast cancer. Our project aims to dissect the immune microenvironment through multipronged approaches for assessing the type and function of infiltrating immune cell subsets in treatment-naive tumor tissue and peripheral blood from patients with ER+ invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) and invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC), the two major histological subtypes of ER+ breast cancer. Through comprehensive global analysis of immune cells and their potential interactions, we identified macrophages and CD8 T cells as important subsets that can be potentially targeted in ER+ breast cancer to improve patient outcomes.
“Impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection in spermatogonial stem cells”
Ana Martinez Marchal, PhD.
Postdoctoral Associate. Miguel Brieño-Enriquez Lab
Magee-Womens Research Institute
Objective:
- The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), led to more than 126,265,724 million infected individuals and over 2,769,853 global deaths by the end of March 2021. The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is an enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA betacoronavirus of the family Coronaviridae. The main target of these virus is the lungs, but new reports about COVID-19 indicate its effects on other organs, including kidney, brain and testis. SARS-CoV-2 uses the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor and the transmembrane protease serine 2 (TMPRSS2) to invade human cells. Based on ACE2 and TMPRSS2 expression, the testis has been classified as being at high risk of infection by SARS-CoV-2. Indeed, patients with COVID-19 suffer from testicular discomfort, which can be associated with viral orchitis. Similarly, some studies have reported reduced testosterone levels in the serum from COVID-19 patients. These data suggest that COVID-19 could affect male reproductive function, in fact the presence of SARS-CoV-2 has been detected in the testis of some deceased patients of COVID-19 as well as in some semen samples of patients in the acute and recovery phase of COVID-19. Our preliminary analysis of the testis of 5 patients deceased due to COVID-19 and their respective controls showed increased germ cell apoptosis, micro thrombosis, and infiltration of lymphocyte CD3+. Strikingly, we observed that almost all the apoptotic cells were spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs). Non-apoptotic SSCs also displayed signs of DNA damage and oxidative stress. Using single nuclei RNA-seq, RNAscope, and immunohistochemistry, we will interrogate the effects of COVID-19 on human testis from the macroscopic presentation to the single cell, providing an important basis to understand the SSC alterations that may hamper fertility in COVID-19 survivors.

The Cytometry Facility is proud to announce the Cytoflex LX is on the way! For our last virtual seminar, we will be re-introducing the technology. In brief, the CytoFLEX LX Flow Cytometer is an expansion of the CytoFLEX Platform. This flagship model expands research possibilities with six lasers and 21 color parameters. Six spatially separated lasers allow panels to be spread across the spectrum reducing cross talk and spectral overlap. The fully activated instrument includes three fluorescent channels from the 355 nm (UV) laser, five from the 405 nm (Violet) laser, three from the 488 nm (Blue) laser, five from the 561 nm (Yellow Green) laser, three from the 638 nm (Red) laser, and two from the 808 nm (Infrared) laser. The available 96-well plate sample loader allows for high-throughput applications and fits inside the instrument preserving the compact footprint. Please join us to learn more about this new instrument!

The Institute for Precision Medicine hosts a monthly lecture series to highlight advances in precision medicine research and personalized care both at Pitt/UPMC and nationwide. This month, we are excited to host Amanda Paulovich, MD, PhD as a guest speaker. Dr Paulovich is the Aven Foundation Endowed Chair, and Director, CLIA Targeted Proteomic Laboratory at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. She also serves as the Director of the Clinical Research Proteomics Platform at the Brotman Baty Institute for Precision Medicine and is Professor of Medicine in the divison of Oncology at the Unviersity of Washington School of Medicine.
Dr. Paulovich received her M.D. and Ph.D. with Dr. Lee Hartwell at the University of Washington. She completed a residency in Internal Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital and a fellowship in Oncology at Dana-Farber/Partners Cancer Center in Boston. She completed postdoctoral training at MIT-Whitehead Center for Genomics Research working with Dr. Eric Lander. As an oncologist, Dr. Paulovich was struck by the paucity of quantitative assays for measuring clinically relevant phenotypes in her patients, and the limitations that this put on her ability to practice “personalized medicine.” Out of these experiences, she became passionate about developing technologies and strategies for translation of novel diagnostics and therapeutics to enable precision medicine. Over the past 18 years, Dr. Paulovich’s research has focused on relieving a roadblock in biomedical research: a lack of validated and standardized tools for reliably quantifying human proteins. She has developed quantitative proteomic assays for measuring immunotherapy response, DNA damage response and growth factor receptor signaling to name a few. She was inducted to American Society for Clinical Investigation, received the 2014 Life Science Innovation Northwest Women to Watch in Life Science Award, received the 2015 Distinguished Achievement in Proteomic Sciences Award from the Human Proteome Organization, was awarded the Aven Foundation Endowed Chair in 2018, and was appointed Director of the Clinical Research Proteomics Platform of the Brotman Baty Institute for Precision Medicine in 2019.
In her presentation Dr Paulovich will discuss the added value of proteogenomics to the current genome-driven approach to precision oncology, and summarize the growing incorporation of targeted proteomic measurements based on selected/multiple reaction monitoring (SRM/MRM) mass spectrometry into clinical trials and the clinical laboratory. The establishment of proteogenomics represents an important component towards implementation of broader precision medicine efforts in cancer and beyond.
