OBJECTIVES/GOALS: We study the association of adaptive decision-making, motor planning, and neuromuscular constraints, in children with hemiplegia. We examine how children scale motor decisions to body mechanics and the distance of a target while reaching in sitting/standing, and if they can recalibrate motor decisions to sudden changes in body mechanics. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Forty-five 6-12 year-olds with hemiplegia and 45 age/gender matched typically developing controls participate in clinical tests (i.e. balance, visual perceptual skills, etc.) and 3 experiments. Children “reach to tap” toward a target while sitting with both preferred and not preferred arms under three conditions: regular elbow extension siting and standing and elbow extension range reduced by 50% via a splint while sitting. Trials are easy, ambiguous, and difficult. Motor decisions are compared to abilities and motion sensors (IMUs) worn at wrist, arm, sternum and lumbar area, record biomechanical strategies children use under different decisions. Synchronized video analysis presents biomechanical strategies under different decisions. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Data collection is still underway. A mixed models analysis is used to compare 2 (group: hemiplegic/typically developing) X 2 (arms: healthy/impaired & dominant/non dominant) X 3 (difficulty levels) the children’s decisions. Functional analysis is used to capture biomechanical strategies children use under different decisions and levels of difficulty. Exploration strategies are recorded relative to levels of difficulty. We will also compute correlations between affordance thresholds for all children and measures of sensation, range of motion, cognition and balance (in each posture). Lastly, a secondary analysis will compare behaviors of children with left/right hemisphere lesions, as they differ in spatial abilities. Preliminary results show that children with hemiplegia make errors with both their affected and unaffected side. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Motor deficits in children with hemiplegia are the primary focus of treatments. Motor learning interventions focus on biomechanical deficits. Results from these studies expand the focus to planning and cognitive control issues underlying motor deficits.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: An age-dependent restitution defect in our neonatal pig intestinal ischemia model is rescued by unknown factors within homogenized mucosa of weaned pigs. A postnatally maturing network of enteric glia regulates the epithelial barrier, so we aim to show rescue is due to replacement of glial factors. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Jejunal tissues from suckling or weaned pigs were assessed by RNAseq and processed for immunofluorescent histology and 3-D volume imaging. Jejunal ischemia was surgically induced in weaned pigs and injured mucosa was recovered ex vivo with or without the glial inhibitor fluoroacetate (FA) while monitoring transepithelial electrical resistance (TER). RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Ingenuity Pathways Analysis of RNAseq data revealed significant suppression of numerous pathways critical for epithelial wound healing in suckling pigs (Z-score <−2 for of nine key pathways). Volume imaging studies confirmed lower density (P≤0.05) and complexity of the subepithelial glial network in suckling pigs. Treatment with FA inhibited TER recovery (P<0.0001) and restitution (P<0.05) in weaned pigs, mimicking the suckling pig phenotype and supporting glia as an important regulator of restitution in our model. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: These findings provide important evidence that a developing glial network may be critical to the postnatal development of intestinal barrier repair mechanisms. Ongoing work will explore glial-epithelial interactions in vitro to further define postnatal development of barrier repair.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) may be important in both depression and coronary artery disease (CAD). A novel heart rate variability (HRV) metric, Dyx, may be a be a potentially useful tool to study ANS dysfunction in these diseases. We propose that ANS dysfunction, measured by decreased Dyx, will associate with both depression and obstructive CAD. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We included participants undergoing coronary angiography for suspected CAD. Depressive symptoms were assessed with the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). HRV data were collected continuously on participants before catheterization using a new ECG patch (VivaLNK). We assessed HRV by Dyx (primary) and high and low frequency power, multiscale entropy, and deceleration capacity. Two-sample t-tests and logistic regressions (with adjustment for age and sex) were used to study the difference in HRV (before cardiac catheterization) between those with high versus low depressive burden (PHQ-9 ≥ 10), and in those with versus without obstructive CAD (>70% stenosis). RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We assessed 30 individuals with mean (SD) age 62.4 (13.2); 7.1% were female and 15.4% were black. Mean Dyx in high depressive symptoms (N = 21, 70%) was 1.8 (0.2) and in none-low depressive symptoms (N = 7, 23%) was 2.2 (0.2). Differences were also observed for high frequency (HF) (4.4 (1.1) vs. 6.0 (1.4)) and deceleration capacity (−4.2 (2.1) vs. −10.7 (8.5)). Mean Dyx in obstructive CAD (N = 17, 57%) and non-obstructive CAD (N = 10, 33%) was 1.7 (0.6) and 2.6 (1.2) respectively. Differences were seen with sample entropy (1.2 (0.2) vs. 1.5 (0.2)). Every 1 unit of log(HF) had an odds ratio = 0.14 (95% CI 0.06 – 0.36) for depression. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: ANS dysfunction, measured by HRV, associates with both depression and obstructive CAD. Autonomic ECG markers may play an important role in assessing brain-heart pathology, and may be useful to study the interaction between depression and CAD.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Current surgical flap and replantation monitoring techniques have limitations in detecting the pathologic state, calibration and cost-to-patient issues. Our hypothesis is that novel implantable oxygen sensors can provide a more efficient, accurate, and reliable monitoring of tissue oxygenation. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Experimental sensors were used with an exogenous remote used as a reader once implanted (Fig. 1) A rat tissue perfusion model with three regions of an SIEA flap as well as into adjacent control sites was made (Tip, Middle, and Base) Blood flow was greatest at the base, diminishing towards the Tip, thus creating a perfusion gradient. Changes in tissue oxygen tension PO2 were estimated by the steady-state fluorescence of the optical sensors using an IVIS imaging system. The sensors were used to collect data from days 0, 3, and 7 as a reading of Tissue Oxygen Tension (TOT) with ANOVA used to assess for statistical significance in blood oxygen data with respect to relative perfusion status. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Inspired FiO2 was decreased from 100% to 12% with a corresponding change in the TOT readings from all sensors. (Fig. 2) The tip portion of the flap demonstrated the most profound detection of tissue necrosis, with the middle demonstrating the second most necrosis and the base demonstrating the least with correlating TOT sensor readings. (Fig. 3) Acute vascular compromise of the feeding blood vessels in the pedicle was immediately detected within 70 seconds (*p<0.05). (Fig. 4) DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: This study introduces and validates a recent technique to monitor acute vascular occlusion, flap viability, and necrosis in the immediate postoperative period in a validated rodent model. Future directions of this novel technology will aim to reproduce these findings in clinical feasibility studies.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: NASH increases the risk of cirrhosis and liver cancer. High-fat diets increase CCK levels and CCK receptors have been identified on fibroblasts and immune cells. We hypothesized that CCK receptor blockade could prevent NASH by altering the hepatic microenvironment and macrophage activation. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Female mice were fed a Choline Deficient Ethionine supplemented (CDE) saturated fat diet or control high-fat diet for 18 weeks. Mice in each group were treated with a CCK receptor antagonist, proglumide (0.1 mg/ml) in the drinking water or regular water. Resected livers were stained for H&E for features of NASH and F4/80 for macrophages analysis. Liver RNA was evaluated for the expression of cytokines and chemokines using an 84-gene Profiler array (Qiagen). Oxidative stress was analyzed by qRT-PCR for heat shock proteins (HSPs) 27, 60, 70 and 90 and for glutathione by a fluorometric assay. Differences in CDE fed and CDE/proglumide-treated mouse livers were evaluated. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Livers from mice on the CDE diet displayed histologic features of NASH that were prevented by proglumide. Cytokines and chemokines expression, especially CCL20 and CCL2, were increased in the CDE fed mice and these levels were reduced greater than 20-fold with proglumide. Infiltration of F4/80+ macrophages was markedly increased in the CDE livers and these were reduced by > 50% (p < 0.0001) with proglumide. RNA expression of HSP70 (p = 0.006) and HSP27 (p = 0.011) were reduced with proglumide. Hepatic glutathione concentration more than doubled in the CDE/proglumide treated mice compared to CDE mice. CCK-B receptor expression increased in the CDE-fed mouse livers compared to controls. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: CCK receptor blockade decreases NASH by reducing hepatic macrophages, oxidative stress, and blocking inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. This data supports our novel hypothesis that CCK receptors play a role in NASH and proglumide may provide an innovative treatment for this condition.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Experimental pain testing is used to identify changes in nociceptive processing and outcomes with intervention. This study investigated exercise induced changes in experimental pain and self-reported pain intensity after an acute bout of exercise in participants with fibromyalgia. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Ten females with fibromyalgia (55±10yr) were familiarized to study procedures and underwent submaximal (20% maximal voluntary contraction) intermittent eccentric muscle contractions isolated to the right arm for 10-minutes. Self-reported pain intensity (0-10 numerical pain rating scale [NPRS]) of the exercising arm was measured before, during, and after exercise; whole-body pain intensity was measured before and after exercise. Experimental pain testing included measurement of pressure pain thresholds (kPa [PPTs]); temporal summation (TS) of pressure pain with a constant mechanical pressure; and TS of punctate pressure with repeated application of monofilaments before and after exercise. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Participants reported minimal to moderate arm pain (3.1±2.1) during exercise. Following exercise, arm pain and whole-body pain significantly increased (3.1±2.2 and 1.6±0.5, respectively) [p<0.05]. No change occurred with PPTs at the bicep (138.9±49.5 to 142.8±55.3), PPTs at the quad (212.0±105.4 to 228.1±100.0), TS of mechanical pressure pain (7.6±2.1 to 7.9±1.5), TS of punctate pressure pain at the bicep (2.6±1.7 to 3.0±1.5), and TS of punctate pressure pain at the quad (3.6±1.5 to 3.7±1.4) before to after exercise respectively [p>0.05]. The change in self-reported arm and whole-body pain did not correlate with the change in experimental pain testing. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: In people with fibromyalgia, there is no relation between self-reported clinical pain and experimental pain following a single exercise session. Further research should identify the influence of exercise training on pain perception and if experimental pain testing translates to clinical insight.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: This study uses diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) to investigate the structural profiles of basal ganglia (BG) motor circuitry in Vascular Parkinsonism (VP), Parkinson’s disease (PD), and healthy aging controls (HC). VP is a clinical diagnosis of lower body predominant parkinsonism without significant benefit from levodopa. VP is distinct from PD, yet the concept of VP remains debated due to the inability of prior studies to identify specific causative changes. One reason for this may be limitations in measuring intricate BG connectivity in vivo. Given the predominant lower body parkinsonism symptoms in VP, we hypothesized that VP would be associated with decreased connectivity specifically within the BG motor loop. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We obtained DKI brain imaging in subjects with VP (N = 7), PD (N = 21), and HCs (N = 58), the latter of which had cardiovascular risk factors but no neurological symptoms. The VP and PD groups were evaluated by a parkinsonism-focused motor exam and brief cognitive testing. We compared BG motor loop connectivity between groups and investigated for correlation between connectivity and clinical scores. To account for differences in fiber counts due to the different imaging scanners and protocols between cohorts, we used a BG motor loop proportion, which was the ratio of the BG motor loop fiber count over a control loop, the visual processing pathway. We used Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test with post-hoc Dunn tests to assess imaging findings between subject groups, and Pearson’s correlation to look for correlation between clinical scores and fiber counts. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The whole brain connectome showed the fewest number of fibers in VP, followed by PD, and then HC (p<0.0001). The BG motor loop proportion fiber count of the BG motor loop was lower in the VP group, compared to the PD and HC cohorts (p = 0.031). In the VP group, the whole brain connectome fiber count correlated with a gait and balance subscore of the Movement Disorders Society - Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (R = −0.87, p = 0.01). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: This study indicates that VP is associated with decreased structural connectivity, with a disproportionate degree of loss in the BG motor circuitry. While the etiology for this susceptibility to injury and preferential damage to BG remains to be defined, these findings can provide an important starting point for a biological understanding of VP, and a potential future marker for diagnosis and tracking disease progression.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The objective of the study was to determine whether CLP altered genes associated with mitochondrial function in the diaphragm. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: A rodent cecal-ligation and puncture (CLP) model used to mimic sepsis-induced critical illness. The CLP model involved ligation of 50% of the cecum below the ileocecal valve in adult C57BL6 mice, followed by needle puncture of the cecum resulting in mid-grade sepsis. Mice survived for 48 hours or more, following injury. Diaphragm and limb muscles were harvested 24 hours following CLP (N = 6) and following a sham CLP procedure (N = 6). RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Gene expression of mitochondrial related genes (mef2c, myh1, pgc1-α), were significantly decreased in the diaphragm of CLP injured animals when compared to controls. In addition, ubiquitin ligases, genes associated with skeletal muscle atrophy murf1 and atrogin were increased in the diaphragm 24 hours after injury (p< 0.01). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Our results indicate that sepsis-induced critical illness significantly impacts the expression of genes implicated in mitochondrial homeostasis and atrophy. Ongoing studies will identify whether CLP injury decreases skeletal muscle mitochondrial function.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: We previously reported that genetic polymorphisms in the beta-catenin gene (CTNNB) are associated with the development of Clostridiodes difficile colitis during autologous stem cell transplantation (https://www-ncbi-nlm-nih-gov.proxy.libraries.uc.edu/pubmed/29594489). To biological validate these findings, we sought to evaluate the development of chemotherapy-associated Clostridiodes difficile infections by assessing the effect of C.difficile toxin B (TcdB) and of using melphalan in beta-catenin protein expression in Caco2 cells. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: To determine the effect of melphalan and/or C.difficile toxin B on expression of Beta-catenin from human gut epithelial cells:

• Adenocarcinoma cells (Caco-2) cells were seeded and allowed to grow into monolayers

• Monolayers were treated with PBS, TcdB, melphalan and/or TcdB + melphalan for 24 hours and then washed with PBS

• Immunofluorescence was measured on the monolayers to visualize three markers -DAPI-Nuclear Stain (blue),Actin-ccytoskeletal stain (red), B-Catenin (green)

• Analysis of images with ImageJ (NIH). Statistical analysis of the effect of TcdB and/or melphalan on β-catenin protein levels was determined by One-way ANOVA

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Variants in voltage-gated sodium channels (VGSC) are a common cause of severe early onset epilepsy. Changes in CSF neurotransmitters (NT) were identified in 2 cases of VGSC-related epilepsy. Here we investigate NT changes in patients and a novel mouse model of VGSC-related epilepsy. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We conducted a single site IRB approved retrospective chart review of patients with VGSC-related epilepsy who underwent CSF NT testing for diagnostic purposes. In parallel, we examined NT levels from the brains of wild-type (WT) and a novel VGSC-related epilepsy mouse model after obtaining IACUC approval. We rapidly isolated forebrain, cortex, striatum, and brainstem from 5-6 animals per sex and genotype. A combination of HPLC with electrochemical detection and mass spectrometry were used to quantify NT levels from brain samples. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We identified 10 patients with VGSC-related epilepsy who received CSF NT testing. Two of these patients had abnormal NT results including changes to dopamine (DA) or serotonin (5-HT) metabolites. We analyzed NT levels from four brain regions from male and female WT and VGSC-related epilepsy mice. We anticipate that most of the NT levels will be similar to WT, however subtle changes in the DA or 5-HT metabolites may be seen in VGSC-related epilepsy. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Patients with VGSC-related epilepsy often have autism spectrum disorder, sleep, and movement disorders. Understanding the role of aberrant NT levels in VGSC-related epilepsy may provide additional therapeutic targets that address common neuropsychological comorbidities as well as seizures.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common childhood rheumatologic disease childhood and a cause of pain and potential disability. JIA has a strong genetic component and no known cure. The goal of this study is to evaluate allele-dependent effects of a novel JIA risk variant at 1q24.3. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: JIA patients meeting criteria for the two most common disease subtypes (oligoarticular and RF neg polyarthritis) were genotyped using the Immunochip, an Illumina array with dense coverage of the HLA region and 186 other loci previously reported in autoimmune diseases. Phase I association findings (Hinks, 2013) and Phase II analysis (unpublished) of an expanded cohort (4,271 JIA and 14,390 controls) identified new risk loci, including rs78037977 at 1q24.3. We prioritized rs78037977 and predicted possible impacted mechanisms based on Bayesian predictions of attributable risk, the surrounding chromatin landscape, and transcription factor binding data. A luciferase reporter assay was used to assess allele-dependent enhancer activity. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: rs78037977 is located between FASLG and TNFSF18 at chromosome 1q24.3 is associated with JIA (p = 6.3x10−09), and explains 94% of the posterior probability at this locus; no other SNPs in linkage disequilibrium (r2>0.6). The chromatin landscape around rs78037977 contains H3K4Me1 and H3K27Ac marks, which are indicative of enhancer activity. Further, >160 transcription factors have chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) peaks overlapping rs78037977 in various cellular contexts. In luciferase reporter assays, the region around rs78037977 containing the reference A allele had ~2-fold increased enhancer activity compared to the non-reference allele. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: This work provides in vitro evidence to support allele-dependent enhancer activity of a novel JIA-risk variant at 1q24.3. Our ongoing work investigates the effect of the DNA-containing region of rs78037977 on gene expression and differential transcription factor binding at rs78037977.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: To determine the prevalence of myocardial diastolic dysfunction (DD) and association of serum concentration of the cardiac biomarker serum soluble ST2 in HIV-infected as compared to uninfected Tanzanian adults at the time of HIV diagnosis. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: In this cross-sectional study we consecutively enrolled HIV-infected participants and uninfected controls at a large, referral HIV clinic in Mwanza, Tanzania. Standardized history, physical examination, echocardiography and serum samples were obtained. The primary outcome was prevalence of myocardial diastolic dysfunction in HIV-infected as compared to uninfected adults. The secondary outcome was the association of baseline serum sST2 concentration with diastolic dysfunction prevalence. Regression models were used to quantify the associations. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We enrolled 388 HIV-infected, ART naïve and 461 HIV-uninfected controls. Participants with HIV had a higher prevalence of DD (OR = 2.44, p = 0.001, controlled for age, sex, hypertension and BMI) and more severe dysfunction (66.7% vs 42.5%, p = 0.056) at an earlier age. Baseline serum sST2 concentration was significantly associated with DD in HIV-infected but not uninfected participants (p = 0.04 and 0.90, respectively). More HIV-infected adults with concurrent DD exceeded the threshold of 35ng/mL as compared to controls (15.7% vs 5.3%, p<0.0001). Additionally, a significant population level shift to higher sST2 concentration was observed in HIV-infected adults with dysfunction as compared to both HIV-infected without and HIV-uninfected adults with dysfunction (Kolmogrov-Smirnov test: p = 0.02 and 0.04). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: In a large population of HIV-infected adults in sub-Saharan Africa, HIV infection is associated with myocardial diastolic dysfunction. This dysfunction is associated with higher sST2 concentrations. Therefore, we conclude that the sST2 pathway may provide insight into the pathophysiologic mechanisms of dysfunction in HIV-infected adults.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The desmoplastic reaction in PDAC involves a significant accumulation of immune cells and fibroblasts.The functional diversity of carcinoma associated fibroblasts (CAFs) remains largely unknown, and identification of immune regulating subsets would have a substantial impact in augmentation of immunotherapy efficacy. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Employing histology, FACs, multiplex immunohistochemistry, single cell RNA sequencing (sc-RNA-seq) and genetically engineered mouse models, we demonstrate that aSMA+ cells are a dominant CAF population in PDAC with tumor restraining properties (TS-CAFs), as opposed those of the FAP+ CAFs, which demonstrate tumor promoting activity (TP-CAFs). RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Analysis of bulk tumor depleted of either TS-CAFs or TP-CAFs showed that TS-CAFs predominantly modulate extracellular matrix (ECM) production, facilitate cell-ECM adhesion and regulate adaptive immunity, while TP-CAFs exhibit a lineage that is skewed towards a pro-inflammatory, chemokine secreting phenotype. Further, scRNA-Seq analyses demonstrate that CAFs share distinct gene expression profiles characteristic of lymphocytic and myeloid lineages. Together our data distinguish two populations of CAFs, one which is tumor suppressing with roles in ECM remodeling and another which is tumor promoting with roles in cytokine production, both with immune modulating capabilities. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Our study identifies a complex network of functionally heterogeneous fibroblasts during PDAC progression with significant immunotherapeutic implication. The identification of distinct fibroblast subsets will allow us to discriminately target fibroblast populations to augment immunotherapy efficacy in pancreatic cancer.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Executive function (EF) deficits lead to poorer adherence and weight loss in obesity treatment. Conversely, untreated obesity leads to both EF impairments and risk of chronic disease. EF deficits in children with obesity have begun to be associated with biomarkers of chronic disease risk such as glucose and cortisol. Elevated pro-inflammatory biomarkers, such as C-Reactive Protein (CRP), Interleukin 6 (IL-6), and Tumor Necrosis Factor a (TNFa), indicate risk for obesity-associated chronic disease and may represent another candidate biomarker of EF deficits in pediatric obesity. These inflammatory markers tend to be elevated in obesity but have yet to be examined in association with EF in pediatric obesity. This represents an opportunity to identify potential biomarkers of EF which may serve as novel treatment targets that could improve outcomes and chronic disease prevention. Thus, the present study aims to explore associations between EF and blood serum CRP, IL-6, and TNFa. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Treatment-seeking children aged 8-12 years with BMI>95th percentile were recruited from a pediatric weight management clinic and attended baseline assessments for a family-based behavioral intervention program for pediatric obesity. Demographics and medical history were assessed via parent questionnaire. Height and weight were measured by research staff and converted to zBMI. Child performance-based EF was assessed via the NIH Toolbox Cognitive Battery iPad application. Blood draws, assays, and Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA; measuring adiposity) were conducted by trained research personnel. Pearson’s correlations were conducted to explore associations between EF (NIH Toolbox Cognitive Battery, fully corrected T-scores) and CRP, IL-6, and TNFa. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Children (n = 12) were primarily female (76.5%) and African American (64.7%). Correlation coefficients between inflammatory markers and EF were highly variable (r = −0.39 to 0.52). CRP showed small, negative associations with Cognitive Flexibility (r = −0.39) and Inhibitory Control (r = −0.34). IL-6 also demonstrated a small, negative association with Inhibitory Control (r = −0.37). TNFa was positively and moderately associated with working memory (r = 0.53). Remaining associations were weak (−0.3<r<0.3). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Signals of higher inflammation, measured via CRP and IL-6, in association with EF deficits were identified in a small sample of children with obesity, as hypothesized. However, signals in the opposite direction were identified as well, measured via TNFa. CRP and IL-6 may represent candidate biomarkers of executive dysfunction in obesity that warrant further domain and biomarker-specific research, with potential long-term implications for improving pediatric obesity treatment.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Sensorimotor integration deficits are common in Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). There is evidence for both an over-reliance on visual and proprioceptive feedback during motor control in ASD, suggesting deficits in the ability to modulate sensory feedback processing in order to use the most reliable input. This study aims to test this hypothesis. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: 40 persons with ASD (ages 10-33 yrs) and 25 age-, sex- and nonverbal IQ-matched controls completed precision gripping tasks under multiple proprioceptive and visual feedback conditions. Participants squeezed a force sensor with their index finger and thumb and tried to match their force output to a target force. Visual feedback of the target force (stationary bar) and their force output (bar that moved up/down with increased/decreased force) were displayed on a computer screen. Visual feedback was presented across low, medium, and high gain levels; the force bar moved a greater distance per change in force at higher gains. Proprioceptive feedback was manipulated using 80Hz tendon vibration at the wrist to create an illusion that the muscle is contracted. Force regularity (approximate entropy; ApEn) was examined. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We have scored data from 18 participants with ASD and 13 control participants to date. Preliminary results from these participants indicate a Group x Tendon Vibration x Visual Gain interaction for ApEn (F = 1.559, p = 0.023). Individuals with ASD show slight increases in ApEn with 80Hz tendon vibration relative to no tendon vibration in all visual conditions. Controls showed increased ApEn during 80Hz compared to no tendon vibration at low visual gain but decreased ApEn with tendon vibration at high visual gain. These preliminary results indicate that controls shift to using a secondary source of sensory feedback (e.g., proprioception) when the primary source (e.g., vision) is degraded. However, persons with ASD do not reweight different sensory feedback processes as feedback inputs are degraded or magnified. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Our preliminary results reveal that sensorimotor issues in ASD result from deficits in the reweighting of sensory feedback. Namely, persons with ASD fail to dynamically recalibrate feedback processes across visual and proprioceptive systems when feedback conditions change. Our results may aid treatment development for sensorimotor issues in ASD.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Vitamin D [25(OH)D], known to have anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic effects in other tissues, may also impact adipose tissue. We designed parallel studies in humans and rodents to define the effects of vitamin D on adipose tissue inflammation and fibrosis, and on systemic insulin resistance. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We performed a randomized, double-blinded placebo-controlled trial to examine the effects of repleting vitamin D at to two levels (to >30 ng/ml and to > 50 ng/ml) in 25(OH)D-deficient (<20 ng/ml), insulin resistant, overweight-to-obese humans (n = 19). A comprehensive study of whole-body insulin action was undertaken with euglycemic stepped hyperinsulinemic clamp studies, both before (1st visit) and after administration of vitamin D or placebo (2nd visit and 3rd visit). Adipose tissue fibrosis and inflammation were quantified by ‘real-time’ rt-PCR and immunofluorescence. To determine whether vitamin D’s effects are mediated through adipocytes, we performed hyperinsulinemic clamp studies and adipose tissue analysis in an adipocyte-specific vitamin D receptor knockout (VDR KO) mouse model. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: 25(OH)D repletion (to >30 ng/ml) was associated with reductions in adipose tissue expression of inflammatory (0.6-0.7-fold decreased expression of TNF-α, IL-6, iNOS and PAI-1) and pro-fibrotic (0.4-0.8-fold decreased expression of TGF-β1, HiF1α, Collagen I, V, VI and MMP7) factors, decreased collagen VI immunofluorescence (p = 0.02) and improved hepatic insulin sensitivity in humans, with suppression of endogenous glucose production (EGP) (1.28 ± 0.20 vs 0.88 ± 0.18 mg/kg/min, p = 0.03). Compared to wild type (WT), VDR KO mice exhibited increased adipose tissue expression of several pro-inflammatory (Tnf-α, iNos, Pai-1, Mcp-1 and F4/80; 4-10 fold) and pro-fibrotic genes (Tgf-β1, Collagen VI, and Tsp1; 2-4 fold), in concert with hepatic insulin resistance (EGP 10 ± 3 vs 3 ± 2 mg/kg/min in WT, p = 0.021). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Collectively, these complementary human and rodent studies establish a beneficial role of vitamin D to improve hepatic insulin resistance, likely by restraining adipose tissue inflammation and fibrosis. Thus, normalizing 25(OH)D levels could have metabolic benefits in targeted individuals. CONFLICT OF INTEREST DESCRIPTION: N/A

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Klotho is a protein linked to improved cognition in aging adults. A specific KLOTHO gene variant, KL-VS, increases circulating levels of Klotho. The current study aims to identify if the KL-VS haplotype and Klotho levels are associated with improved neurocognition in pediatric brain tumor survivors. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We are actively accruing pediatric brain tumor patients at UCSF alongside an existing multi-institutional cohort study investigating radiation-induced vasculopathies and cognitive outcomes in this population. Normal controls are being enrolled in parallel. Each patient undergoes: 1) single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping to identify KL-VS haplotype status, 2) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays to measure circulating Klotho, 3) neurocognitive assessments with a computer-based, validated Cogstate battery, and 4) brain volume and white matter lesion segmentation analyses using MRI sequences obtained as part of routine care. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Genotyping has been performed on 99 enrolled patients. KL-VS heterozygosity was seen in 22.7% of patients. To date, KL-VS status is not associated with neurocognitive outcomes at baseline or Year 1 testing. Association between KL-VS status, circulating Klotho levels, neurocognitive outcomes, brain volume and white matter lesion segmentation analyses is ongoing. We hypothesize that elevated Klotho levels will be associated with improved neurocognition, increased brain volumes in regions of interest and decreased white matter lesion volumes. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: If circulating Klotho leads to improved neurocognition in pediatric brain tumor survivors, Klotho levels might serve as a prognostic biomarker. Furthermore, as Klotho is being investigated for therapeutic indications, it may represent an intervention to prevent cognitive deficits in these patients.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Rab27B, a small GTPase, functions in exosome formation and secretion. Rab27B is overexpressed in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and predicts patient survival; however, little is known about its importance in NSCLC cells. Here, we investigated the role of Rab27B in NSCLC tumor initiating cells. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Tumor initiating cells (TICs) were enriched in a panel of NSCLC cell lines using low adherence spheroid cultures. QPCR and immunoblot analysis were used to compare Rab27B mRNA and protein expression, respectively, in adherent bulk cancer cells and TIC cultures. Lentiviral-packaged short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) were used to knockdown Rab27B in PC9 and H1299 NSCLC TICs. The effects of Rab27B knockdown on PC9 and H1299 TIC expansion, transformed growth, and invasion were analyzed by MTT cell proliferation, soft agar colony formation, and Boyden chamber assays respectively. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Quantitative PCR and immunoblot analysis showed that Rab27B expression is elevated in NSCLC TICs when compared to adherent bulk cancer cells. Efficient knockdown of Rab27B was achieved in PC9 and H1299 NSCLC TICs using two independent shRNA constructs. Rab27B knockdown cells exhibited decreased expansion as spheroid cultures, transformed growth, and invasion when compared to non-target shRNA control cells. Future experiments will focus on determining the importance of Rab27B in TIC exosome production and in vivo tumor growth and metastasis. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Our results show that Rab27B is important in NSCLC TIC growth and invasion. Further studies are needed to determine the mechanism of Rab27B action. TICs have been linked to enhanced tumorigenic properties, suggesting that Rab27B could be a good candidate for therapeutic targeting of NSCLC TICs.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The aim of this study was to define the transcription profiles of the molecular markers of mitochondrial biogenesis and fusion/architecture, and the markers of mtDNA copy numbers in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from war veterans with/without post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from war veterans with/without post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) were used to monitor transcription profile of the molecular markers of mitochondrial biogenesis and fusion/architecture, as well as the markers of mtDNA copy numbers. The human male immortalized monocytes were exposed in vitro to hormonal markers of PTSD in order to monitor the effects of each particular hormonal marker on the molecular markers of mitochondrial biogenesis and fusion/architecture, as well as the markers of mtDNA copy numbers. RQ-PCR analyses were used to define transcriptional profile of above mentioned markers. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The transcription profiles of above mentioned markers were disturbed, with high individual variability within the groups. A significant increase in the expression of the PPARGC1A transcript was observed in a group of subjects with current PTSD, as well as in the subjects with “life-time” PTSD, compared to healthy controls. PPARGC1B, NRF2 and MFN2 transcripts increased only in PBMCs of “life-time"-PTSD, while the level of transcripts for other investigated genes and the ratio of markers of mtDNA copy numbers showed no significant difference between groups. The in vitro results showed parallelism with the results obtained using the PBMCs from the subjects of the PTSD study. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Although preliminary (the analysis require a larger number of subjects), the results are first findings and a solid base for further extensive multidisciplinary research in order to clarify the molecular mechanisms for the prevention and treatment of trauma-induced pathological conditions.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Our preclinical data demonstrate that the principal effects of nilotinib, a multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor, in models of neurodegeneration is clearance of misfolded proteins via autophagy. Here we aimed to evaluate the effects of nilotinib on microRNAs in the cerebrospinal fluid of Parkinson’s disease patients. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was collected as part of an open label phase I (NCT02281474) (n = 12, 300 mg nilotinib taken orally once daily for 6 months), and a phase II randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study (NCT02954978) (n = 75, randomized 1:1:1 into placebo, 150 mg or 300 mg nilotinib taken orally once daily for 12 months). RNA was isolated from CSF and Indexed sequencing libraries were prepared from total RNA plus miRNA. Next generation whole-genome sequencing (single-end 1x75 bp, 25 million raw reads per sample) was performed to identify miRNAs significantly differentially expressed (fold-change ≥ 2, Benjamini-Hochberg FDR p-value ≤ 0.05 or Empirical Bayes FDR ≤ 0.05) with treatment compared to baseline. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Next generation whole-genome sequencing of microRNAs in the CSF demonstrated that nilotinib significantly increases microRNAs that specifically regulate expression of autophagy and ubiquitination genes in individuals with Parkinson’s disease. In the open label phase I, samples, 28 microRNAs found to regulate autophagy and ubiquitination genes, were significantly altered with treatment (Benjamini-Hochberg FDR p-value ≤ 0.05). In the phase II randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study samples, we verified several of those 28 candidate microRNAs had been significantly deferentially expressed with treatment (Empirical Bayes FDR p-value ≤ 0.05). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Our data provide robust evidence that nilotinib’s effects on misfolded protein clearance is via autophagy and CSF miRNA sequencing is a valid biomarker of nilotinib’s effects in a definitive phase III study to investigate nilotinib in Parkinson’s and other neurodegenerative diseases.
