OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Our goal is to explore the extent to which organoids can serve as models for the protective mechanisms of the stomach–the mucus barrier and the pH gradient across it. We aim to first optimize and validate an organoid-based model of the gastric mucus layer, and then define the cellular mechanisms by which the gastric pH gradient is maintained across it. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We have developed a method for the in vitro engineering of gastric mucus by growing epithelial cells at the air-liquid interface (ALI). We use microrheology with fluorescent microspheres to define and compare the biophysical and viscoelastic properties of our lab-grown mucus to those of native mucus. We will perform CryoFE-SEM to compare the internal heterogeneity of our lab-grown mucus to fresh mucus obtained from patient tissue. For our mechanistic studies, we will use a pH-sensitive dye (methyl red) to assess the ability of our lab-grown mucus to maintain an artificial pH gradient in a microfluidic device. Next, we will use a pH microelectrode to measure proton flux through our mucus in vitro, investigating the potential for a physiological gradient in both 2D and 3D organoid models. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Here we show that gastric organoids and their corresponding epithelial monolayers produce a mucus gel that does indeed mimic in vivo functions. Immunohistochemical staining, electron microscopy, microrheology, and particle tracking analyses revealed that our gastric organoid mucus is viscoelastic and structurally heterogeneous–both properties that are crucial to the stomach’s mucosal first line of defense. Mechanically similar mucus was also engineered using two-dimensional air-liquid interface cultures of the same epithelia. Lastly, live confocal imaging revealed that H. pylori motility–an important virulence factor–was drastically hindered by our lab- grown mucus. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: We describe a novel method for the in vitro engineering of gastric mucus and highlight biophysical properties that contribute to our stomach’s defense against pathogens. This work will lead to an improved understanding of gastric physiology and may contribute to the development of novel drug delivery systems to tackle diseases of the gastric mucosa.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: 30,000,000 people in the U.S. have hearing loss, negatively impacting quality of life and work. Understanding auditory axon guidance for spiral ganglia neurons (SGNs) will aid development of new therapies. I study role of Eph/Ephrin signaling in mediating type II SGN turning events, and how planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling modulates this process. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: This quantitative study was conducted on Efna3 and Vangl2 null mice possessing Neurog1CreERT2 and R26RtdTomato mutations. Spontaneous Cre activity within the Neurogenin 1 CreERT2 line causes recombination and expression of fluorescent Rosa26 Reporter (R26R)tdTomato in a restricted number of SGNs, including type IIs. Together these lines permit SGN sparse labeling. Bulk-labeling was used for Efna3;Vangl2 double knockout (DKO) mutants. Immunostaining and confocal imaging was used to analyze dsRed in Efna3; Vangl2 and NF-200 in DKOs to quantify type II SGN turning. In combination, 3D rendering in Imaris software was used to quantify type II SGN turning, branching and other growth and navigation characteristics. 5-6 cochleae per genotype were analyzed and compared by t-test to wildtype controls. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: EPHRIN-A3 is expressed on the membranes of outer pillar and Deiters’cells of the cochlear epithelium. Efna3 nulls showed a small rise in type II SGNs incorrectly turning toward the apex at an error frequency of 16.9% compared to controls (n=6; p=0.05). Efna3 nulls had reduced branch number/fiber compared to controls, 4.14 and 7.22, respectively (n=129; p DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Our results suggest that Eph/Ephrin signaling acts parallel of PCP signaling to mediate type II SGN guidance during development. The clinical implications of these findings are that therapeutics targeting EPHRIN-A3 and/or VANGL2 in this pathway could stimulate new outer hair cell innervation by type II SGNs following auditory damage.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The goals of this project are to: i) investigate the cargo such as immune mediators (cytokines) and small non coding RNAs (sncRNAs) of EVs derived from nasopharyngeal secretions (NPS) of children with episodes of viral infections and exposed to SHTS; ii) test the biological activity of EVs released from upper airway mucosa on target/recipient lung cells METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: EVs were isolated from ten NPS samples of children with episodes of acute respiratory infections. EVs were characterized by particle sizing (size and concentration), EV markers, and protein arrays for interferons, cytokines, and other immune mediators content. RNA was extracted from ten samples of NPS-derived EVs by column for next generation high throughput sequencing (NGS) to identify sncRNAs in EVs. In studies currently in progress, EVs will be isolated from RSV-infected human nose organoids (HNOs) cells in air liquid interface (ALI) culture, with or without pre-exposure to tobacco smoke. EVs will be then tested for antiviral activity on recipient RSV-infected lower airway cells. Viral titers will be measured in recipient infected lung cells. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We isolated EVs from NPS samples and confirmed by immunoblot EV markers CD63 and Alix. The average size of NPS-derived EVs of virus positive and negative patients was 170 nm and 145 nm, respectively. We determined the particles number of EVs, concentrations of IFN-βand IFN-λin NPS and NPS-derived EVs of these children. While IFN-βlevels were below the limit of detection in both NPS and NPS-derived EVs of all children, IFN-λwas detected in NPS and NPS-derived EVs from infected patients, except for the two patients with no viral infections. We extracted RNA from control-, virus infected- and/or SHTS- EVs and found that piR-36511, piR-40926, piR-49645, piR-32679 and piR- 53263 were all significantly enriched in EVs derived from NPS of children exposed to TS compared to those not exposed. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: RSV leads to approximately 22,000 hospitalizations of children due to second-hand smoke. A vaccine is not currently available for RSV infection. EVs represent a novel translational approach to target undruggable. Airway mucosa EVs in viral respiratory infection function as antiviral messengers and tobacco smoke impairs the EV antiviral activity.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted nursing frontline professionals. The aims of this study were to explore experiences of nursing professionals in Puerto Rico during the pandemic, examine the impact on their health and provide research development opportunities enhance research capacity. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: This interpretative phenomenological study recruited graduate nurses who participated in one in-depth semi-structured virtual interviews. Interviews were audio recorded and transcribed. The data analysis process was guided using the following steps: 1. Reading and re-reading, 2. Initial noting, 3. Developing emergent themes, 4. Searching for connections across emergent themes, 5. Moving to the next case, 6. Looking for patterns across cases, and 7. Writing up. In addition, Van Manen's thematic structure of four foundations was used as a complement to guide reflection and interpretation. Faculty and students participated throughout the process. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Seven nursing professionals’lived experiences caring for Covid-19 patients were gathered. Their ages ranged from 31 to 45 and had worked between 2 and 14 years providing direct care. Themes that emerged from narrations include compassion fatigue, teamwork, working beyond clinical role, and gratification. Nurses expressed dealing with a very difficult situation, fear of being infected , or infecting my family , and working together to get through it and better help patients . Nurses also expressed feelings of anxiety and lack of institutional support. Additionally, the impact of working with patients, feeling good for being there, good or bad and support from families. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Nurses’narrations point to the complexities of their experiences working during the pandemic. They had to transcend usual demands even though they often lacked needed support. We must recognize the value of nursing and reflect upon changes in healthcare that are essential to move nursing forward.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The need for mechanisms of ethical discourse and guidance has increased as translational research collaborations become more complex. The goal of this project is to analyze the stakeholder engagement and ethical issues our research ethics consultation service (RECS) conducted over a two year period. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We conducted a retrospective review of our RECS database from 2020 to 2022. We examined the nature of the research and ethical issues of concern from consult requestors, including whether or not consults were preventative. In addition, we assessed the educational outreach conducted during that timeframe as a measure of service awareness. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: There was a total of 42 consults conducted over the previous year. There were a wide variety of issues related to informed IRB-related processes (31%), consent (24%), QA/QI determination (12%), authorship (10%), confidentiality (7%), diversity/inclusion (7%), grant preparation (7%). Many of the consults (n=28, 67%) included secondary issues. A few consults (n=4, 10%) were preventative, meaning that the consult was requested in anticipation or consideration of a potential ethical issue. Outreach efforts extended to a diverse array of institutional stakeholders and trainees. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: The RECS serves numerous constituencies throughout our institution on ethical issues spanning nearly all aspects of research design, conduct, and analysis. These data highlight initiatives to increase study efficiency (in collaboration with institutional research oversight) and helps to direct educational efforts and outreach.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Phagocytes, diverse cells that ingest material, are the primary cell type infected by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and the executors of protective mechanisms. T cells play a critical role by helping phagocytes control the infection. Understanding the precise T cell-dependent mechanisms by which phagocytic cell types contain Mtb is critical. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: To determine the impact T cells have on different phagocyte cell populations’ host defense mechanisms, groups of wild–type and T cell deficient TCRa-/- mice were infected with an Mtb strain expressing fluorescent mScarlet protein. At four weeks post-infection, a time when T cell help contributes to control of Mtb, lungs were homogenized and cells sorted based on detection of mScarlet, indicating Mtb-infected cells. Cell suspensions from each mouse background were underwent single-cell RNA sequencing analysis to reveal the heterogenous cellular transcriptional response of different phagocyte populations. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We found that Mtb-infected phagocytes from wild-type and TCRa-/- mouse lungs contain the same dominant cell phenotypic clusters, but these have different patterns of gene expression. Without T cells, phagocytes are prone to a more inflammatory phenotype. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: This will translate fundamental biological data to test the hypothesis that Mtb encounters different environmental stresses exerted by different phagocytic cell types. This work could reveal host intracellular niches that enable bacterial persistence and elucidate new pathways that could be targeted for traditional antibiotic therapies for TB.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Evidence suggests that individuals with generalized joint hypermobility (GJH), or excessive joint range of motion, are at higher risk of developing chronic neck pain. The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence and clinical presentation of chronic neck pain in GJH and investigate its associations with other measures of spine health. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Data was collected at the Driven to Discover Research Facility at the 2022 Minnesota State Fair. Individuals 18 years and older were invited to participate. All enrolled participants completed Phase 1, which included: the Beighton Score (measure of GJH), the 5-Point-Questionnaire (self-report survey for current or historical GJH), and a custom self-report survey for demographics and musculoskeletal pain. A subset of participants was also asked to complete Phase 2 of the study. Phase 2 consisted of additional self-report surveys (Neck Disability Index (NDI) and PROMIS-10 Global) and the following physical measures: neck range of motion in all planes, neck strength in flexion-extension and lateral bending, and grip strength. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: A total of 559 participants were enrolled in the study. All participants completed Phase 1, and 285 of those individuals completed Phase 2. Those with a Beighton Score≥4 were categorized as having GJH. The overall prevalence of GJH was 23.8% for females and 9.1% for males. Consistent with previous studies, multiple linear regression analysis (R2=0.20, F(2,552) = 69.37, p DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: This is one of the largest studies investigating GJH, pain, and physical measures of neck function in the general population. The results highlight the higher prevalence of chronic neck pain in those with GJH and will form the basis for a subsequent study to identify mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets for individuals with GJH and chronic pain.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The objective of this study was to determine whether residential radon and proximity to horizontal oil and drilling (fracking) are risk factors for the development of multicentric lymphoma in pet dogs, a spontaneous, immunocompetent model for non-occupational risk for NHL in humans. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Two case-control populations of dogs with multicentric lymphoma were utilized, with a focus on two dog breeds at high risk for lymphoma. Control dogs were matched for age, breed, and sex. Home addresses were collected for 54 Golden retrievers with lymphoma and 108 Golden retriever controls, and for 56 boxer dogs with lymphoma and 84 unaffected boxer controls. Counties of residence were matched to radon zones and percentage of home radon tests that exceeded the actionable level of 4 pCi/L, available by county through the EPA and the CDC National Environmental Public Health Tracking Network from 2008 to 2017. Locations of horizontal oil and gas wells were obtained from the Enverus Database, and distances from dog homes to the closest well, and well density by county, were calculated for each case and control. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We found no significant differences in radon zones, county level radon measurements, or residential proximity to active fracking wells between dogs with lymphoma and unaffected controls in either the Golden Retriever or boxer populations. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Canine multicentric lymphoma resembles human NHL and is a valuable model of non-occupational environmental risk for NHL in people. Although we did not find geographic associations between radon and fracking wells, follow-up studies will measure household radon, as well as household air, water, and dog urine for potentially genotoxic chemicals.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Our goal is to determine the structure of the CACHE domain of the Vibrio cholerae quorum sensing receptor CqsR as well as its autoinducer (AI). We are performing X-ray crystallography on the protein in its apo form, with the fractions containing the AI, and with known ligand ethanolamine (ETA). METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We have transformed BL21(DE3) E. coli cells with a pTB146 vector to contain the gene for the CqsR CACHE domain. We grow these cells to high optical density and induce protein expression, at which point we harvest them and purify the protein. This entails lysing the cells, separating the protein with Ni-NTA resin, cleaving our protein tag, and column chromatography. With purified protein, high-throughput screens are set up to find crystallization conditions of apo CqsR, CqsR-ETA, and CqsR-AI. We then determine conditions that best lead to crystal formation and optimize them. Crystals are then diffracted with X-rays, process the data, and determine the structure of protein and AI. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We anticipate finding the structure of the CqsR CACHE domain to a high resolution in addition to the identity of its autoinducer. Previous results found that the structure is homologous to another V. cholerae chemoreceptor, Mlp37, and we expect the results from this project to confirm this. In addition, we know that the autoinducer weighs approximately 62 daltons, the same as the known ligand, ethanolamine. Given that CACHE domains bind specifically to their ligands, we anticipate that the autoinducer will be structurally similar to ethanolamine. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: The results will reveal the structure of the CqsR CACHE domain and its autoinducer. This knowledge will better allow researchers to treat cholera, as both autoinducer identity and receptor conformational changes will be uncovered, allowing for drug development to inhibit cell growth.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The objective of this study is to synthetically generate and use records of exposure, and so that we can understand the effects of exposure on aging and vice-versa. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Quantifying bidirectional effects of environment and aging requires time series of data from all contributing exposures which can span endogenous processes within the body, biological responses of adaptation to environment, and socio-behavioral factors. Gaps in measured data may need to be filled with computationally modeled data. Essentially, the challenge in generating aging exposome is the absence of readily available records for individuals over the course of their life. Instead, these would need to be assimilated from historic person reported data (e.g. residential location, durations, behaviors) along with publically available data. This could lead to potential gaps and uncertainties that would need inform on how the exposomic records can be used for aging research. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We present a pragmatic approach to generation of longitudinal exposomic and aging records as required for different study archetypes. Such records can then be used to understand the bidirectional effects of exposures and aging. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Effects of a lifetime of environmental and lifestyle exposures on aging or age-associated diseases are not well understood. Characterizing differential, additive and intense sporadic multi-agent exposures require advanced big data and artificial intelligence methods.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Patient reported outcomes (PROs) provide unique insight to the patients experience with their healthcare related quality of life QoL. This study aims to 1. Characterize geriatric trauma patients’(GTPs) perceived QoL, at time of injury vs. 3- and 6-months post-injury. 2. Introduce and validate a PROs tool, known as the Five Favorite Activities. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: This is a prospective cohort study of older adults (≥65) presenting to our trauma center with mild traumatic brain injury and/or mild spine, thoracic or extremity fractures. Participants will be asked to complete the NIH-validated Patient-Reported Outcome Measure Information System (PROMIS)-29, PROMIS Cognitive and Functional Abilities, Life-Space Levels and Five Favorite Activities assessment (a list of the five favorite overall and daily activities) tools. Cognitive function will be measured using Montreal Cognitive Assessment tool. Physical function will be evaluated using the Activity Measure for Post-Acute Care 6-click tool. Patients will be contacted at 3- and 6- months post discharge and asked to complete the assessment tools listed above to evaluate changes in QoL during the recovery process. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We hypothesize that geriatric trauma patients will experience a decline in QoL, physical and cognitive function post-injury. This decline will be associated with a decrease in return to the ability to participate in their pre-injury Five Favorite Activities . DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: First, this study is one of the first to evaluate PROMs in GTPs. Second, the Five Favorite Activities PROM, will provide a unique, direct and individualized characterization of what GTPs find important to their recovery post injury compared to the current generic PROMs. This information can be utilized in the future to align goal of care with expectations

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Viral acute rhinosinusitis (ARS), a.k.a, the common cold, affects millions every year. The symptoms caused by viral ARS dramatically affect the general well-being and functional levels of patients, causing work and school absence, and antibiotic abuse. In this study, we examined the therapeutic potential of topical adenosine in viral ARS METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Rhinosinusitis was induced in WT and adenosine receptor (AR) knockout mice by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in the upper airways. Mice were subjected to adenosine or vehicle control within the sinuses. Adenosine receptor expression, inflammatory cytokine expression, and histologic mucus and inflammation score was assessed. The effect of endogenous adenosine accumulation within the sino-nasal tract was assessed in adenosine deaminase knockout (ADA-/-) mice. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Topical administration of adenosine significantly inhibited the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, mucus production, and cell damage in the nose of mice with viral ARS, without prolonging virus clearance. This inhibitory effect was primarily mediated by the A2A adenosine receptor (AR). We also examined and compared the expression of ARs in the nasal tissue, trachea, and lungs. The nasal tissue exhibited the lowest baseline expression of ARs as compared to the lung and trachea which was further downregulated following adenosine treatment. Additionally, accumulation of endogenous adenosine in ADA-/- mice showed no signs of inflammation within the nasal tissue. Together, we demonstrated that topical adenosine effectively decreased inflammation and mucus production in a mouse model of viral ARS. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Previously, we found that topical adenosine dramatically enhances mucociliary clearance in the nose and sinuses. In this study, we found that nasal topical adenosine effectively decreased inflammation and mucus production in viral ARS. Our data suggest that nasal topical adenosine is an effective topical therapeutic option for viral ARS.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: COPD is a progressive airways disease that results in death or disability. There is poor uptake of clinical guidelines (CPG) to manage COPD and studies to bridge this implementation gap have shown inconsistent results. Using implementation science principles we aim to understand COPD-CPG implementation determinants from providers’perspective. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The study is being conducted in ten VA Primary Care Clinics. Guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), a conceptual framework developed to guide systematic assessment of multilevel implementation contexts, we are using semi-structured guides to conduct key informant qualitative interviews (physicians, physician extenders and nurses), to support a formative evaluation. CFIR domains relevant to the study were determined by a multidisciplinary team. Informants are identified through online outreach and voluntary participation. Sampling adequacy will be assessed by achievement of code saturation. A qualitative template analysis will be used to summarize the barriers and facilitators of each component of COPD-CPG organized by CFIR-domain. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We anticipate a list of modifiable and non-modifiable contextual, recipient (provider and patient), and COPD CPG content (innovation) barriers to implementation. Many settings do not have critical elements of these CPG, such as a standardized inhaler education/assessment pathway, patient education material, or pulmonary rehabilitation referral pathway. Existing literature indicate reasons behind the insufficient uptake of COPD CPG include low familiarity with guidelines, perception of minimal value of guidelines by physicians, and time constraints; we will present contextual, recipient and innovation determinants specific to our setting. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: This comprehensive assessment of barriers and facilitators to COPD-CPG will inform tool development and implementation strategies identification to improve COPD CPG uptake. COPD is the most common veteran lung disease. Improvement in COPD care has enormous potential for benefit for local veterans, as well as potential for wider dissemination.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Dyslexia is a common Reading Disability (RD) affecting 7-12% of the population and is associated with less cortical thickness (CT) in bilateral brain regions. However, the interaction between RD and a bilingual experience on CT is unknown, even though bilingualism is also associated with altered CT. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We studied 48 Bilinguals assigned to the Typical Reader group based on Oral Reading Recognition Test (ORRT) scores above 90 (avg=107 ± 14), 47 Bilinguals assigned to the RD group based on ORRT scores below 85 (avg=77 ± 5), 45 English Monolingual Typical Readers with ORRT scores above 90 (avg=102 ± 13) and 47 Monolinguals with RD based on ORRT scores below 85 (avg=78 ± 5). Participants (all from the Adolescent Brain & Cognitive Development Study) were 11.9 ± 0.7 years of age and the 4 groups were matched for sex, self-ratings of English, nonverbal reasoning, and combined household income. Structural magnetic resonance images were analyzed using CAT12 and all four groups were entered into a factorial analysis. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Surprisingly, the main effect of Reading Ability did not reveal any regions where RD manifested less CT than Controls (raising the possibility that the findings from the only two prior reports were due to small samples). The main effect of Language Background revealed less CT in bilinguals in bilateral perisylvian regions (inferior frontal gyri, superior temporal gyri, and left Heschl's gyrus) consistent with prior reports. There was no interaction of Reading Ability by Language Background. Taken together, we found no differences in CT in those with RD relative to Typical readers and no evidence that the dual language experience affected this result in any way. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: The lack of interaction between Reading Ability and Language Background indicates that a dual-language experience does not affect CT differently in those with RD and reduces concerns that RD in those who are bilingual needs to be given separate consideration in studies of CT neuroanatomy.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Familial Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (FHL) is a systemic inflammatory disease, causing acute liver failure (ALF). Elevated Interferon gamma (IFN-γ) results in increased hepatic transcription of the chemokines CXCL9 and CXCL10. Inhibition of their receptor CXCR3 may reduce leukocyte recruitment and ameliorate hepatitis. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: To determine the functional role of the IFN-γ-induced ligands, CXCL9 and CXCL10, in hepatic leukocyte recruitment via CXCR3 we used a prf-/- mouse infected with Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus (LCMV) in our well-established model mimicking human FHL. We used AMG487, a small molecule CXCR3 antagonist, while maintaining intact IFN-γ signaling. Mice were sacrificed 10 days after infection when mice developed features of FHL: cytopenias, organomegaly, elevated serum ferritin and sCD25, and hepatic inflammation. Hepatic inflammation was characterized using flow cytometry, liver histology and noninvasive markers of hepatitis (ALT, liver size). RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: AMG487 did not ameliorate the overall disease phenotype with mice developing similar FHL characteristics compared to control, including weight loss, elevation of ALT and sIL-2r as well as degree of thrombocytopenia and anemia. There was significant reduction of recruitment of CXCR3+CD4+ T cells and B cells in mice treated with AMG487. This indicates the importance of CXCR3 receptor in humoral response in FHL hepatitis. In addition, treatment with AMG487 resulted in reduction of CXCR3 expression in hepatic inflammatory monocyte (iMonos) measured by mean fluorescence intensity (MFI). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: This is the first pre-clinical experience using AMG487, a small molecule CXCR3 antagonist, to treat FHL hepatitis. AMG487 changed the hepatic inflammatory milieu, reducing CD4 T-cell and B-cell recruitment, as well as CXCR3 expression on iMonos. However, it did not ameliorate FHL hepatitis and other therapeutic approaches should be pursued.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: We aim to discover safer and more effective therapeutics for CNS disorders. Current therapeutic development is hindered by dosing out drugs for safe consumption. By identifying proteins with narrow functional roles in the brain (i.e., behavioral control), we can develop drugs targeting these proteins for improved treatment safety and efficacy. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We focused on an evolutionarily new, non-neuronal, non-synaptic glutamate signaling mechanism, system xc- (Sxc). Sxc activity was eliminated by mutating the gene Slc7a11 through pronuclear injection of zinc-finger nucleases into Sprague Dawley rat embryos to create a line of rats lacking Sxc (MSxc). To confirm Sxc mutation, we verified that tissue from MSxc rats had a complete lack of xCT, which is the regulatory subunit of Sxc that is encoded by Slc7a11. We also verified that astrocyte cultures generated from MSxc tissue lacked cystine-evoked glutamate release. Next, we measured development (body weight), CNS regulation of metabolism, and other indicators of generalized, non-specific brain function as well as behaviors that are reliant on behavioral control, such as impulse control and response inhibition. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Eliminating Sxc was not lethal and did not impair development or produce widespread changes in brain function as is commonly observed when deleting other glutamate mechanisms. MSxc rats did not differ from wildtype in growth rate, central regulation of metabolism as reflected by absolute or diurnal changes in core body temperature, locomotor activity in a familiar or novel environment, or simple forms of cognition such as novel object recognition, or operant responding (food and cocaine-reinforced). In contrast, behaviors that rely on behavioral control were impaired. MSxc rats displayed deficits in impulse control and behavioral flexibility. We hypothesize that MSxc rats will also show deficits in response inhibition using the stop signal reaction time task, a common metric used in clinical populations. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Eliminating Sxc activity in rats produced deficits in behaviors reliant on impulse control, without impacting development or simple brain function. These results show the potential of targeting Sxc to restore behavioral control without generating therapeutically limiting adverse effects resulting from non-specific changes in brain function.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Our goal was to explore the actions of odorants on mortality and seizures in a DS mouse model (scn1a+/-), which have spontaneous seizures and high rate of SUDEP. We hypothesize that odorants that have actions on olfactory->;extended amygdala pathways will decrease SUDEP, potentially through attenuation of neuronal activation in the extended amygdala. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Dravet syndrome mice (heterozygous scn1a+/- ) were exposed for at least eight hours a day to either 2-phenylethanol (2PE, rose odor ), lemon extract, or vehicle odorant in group housed cages. This was repeated daily for 15 days starting at postnatal day 20/21. Mortality in each group was recorded. A subset of 2PE-exposed animals had an extended washout period following odorant exposure to continue to determine the long-term effect of odorant exposure on mortality. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Our preliminary results show a strong trend for decreased mortality in the 2PE-exposed group (16.1% mortality (n=31) vs 38.5% mortality in vehicle control (n=26), p=0.06, Barnard’s test). Survival analyses show similar results (p=0.056 Kaplan-Meier curve, p=0.046 when removing those animals that died before completing day one of exposure). The lemon scent-exposed animals had a non-significant increase in mortality compared to controls from our preliminary experiments (50% mortality, n=8). Overall, these results suggest that mortality effect is dependent on specific odorants and that this effect is transient. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Our preliminary data support that odorant exposure can decrease mortality in a Dravet Syndrome mouse model, suggesting that more work to determine the mechanism of action and circuitry involved may illuminate new targets and therapies for preventing SUDEP in epilepsy patients.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The EWSR1-FLI1 gene fusion is implicated as a source of oncogenic activity in the majority of Ewing sarcoma (EwS) cases (>70%). Our studies will provide unparalleled insight into the transformative mechanics of EWS-FLI1 METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: EWS-FLI1 is an intrinsically disordered protein (IDP). IDPs do not form stable secondary or tertiary folds in biological conditions and ofter contain proline-rich regions and other multivalent binding regions. These regions interact with numerous partners resulting in highly dynamic and complex protein-protein interactions. Recent advances in proximity labelling techniques, such as the use of a biotin ligase fused to a protein of interest are exceptionally well suited to identifying IDP interactomes since they do not rely on the binding affinities but rather the distance between interacting proteins. Combining novel discovery proteomics with Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) approaches will provide unparalleled insight into the transformative mechanics of EWS-FLI1. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Using the proximity labeling technique TurboID, which limits the number of false-positive interactions, we have shown that EWSR1 and EWS-FLI1 act within the spliceosome (responsible for mRNA splicing and processing). Using bioinformatics techniques, we show EWS-FLI1 interacts with peptidyl-prolyl isomerase (PPI) proteins, specifically PPIL1, through the EWS-FLI1 N-terminal region (EWS-LCD). We used NMR to provide insight into the interaction between PPIL1 and EWS-LCD, showing that EWS-LCD interacts with the catalytic region of PPIL1. We anticipate that PPIL1 isomerizes EWS-FLI1 to modulate its activity, and that EWS-FLI1 interacts with the spliceosome through formation of a biological condensate. However, future proximity labeling and NMR studies are needed to verify this activity. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Our studies will yield actionable insights regarding the protein-protein interfaces in EWS-FLI1 that can be targeted to attenuate the oncogenic activity of EWS-FLI1. More broadly, our results will be applicable toward understanding the etiology of other pediatric cancers and for guiding the development of novel targeted treatments.
