Purification and properties of rat brain succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase.

Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase from rat brain has been purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. It has a molecular weight of about 140, 000 and is composed of two apparently identical subunits. The reaction catalized by the pure protein is entirely dependent on endogenous --SH groups. The Kim (limits) for NAD and succinic semialdehyde are 2 X 10(-5) M and 1 X 10(-4) M respectively at the optimum pH of 8.6. Inhibition studies show that the reaction mechanism is a compulsory ordered on where NAD binds first followed by succinic semialdehyde.     

Nuclear transport of photosensitizers during photosensitization and oxidative stress.

The nuclear transport pathways of the photosensitizers meso-tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin (TPPS4) and meso-tetra(4-N-methylpyridyl)porphyrin (TMPyP) during photosensitization and oxidative stress were characterized in CT-26 murine colon carcinoma cells using fluorescence microscopy and multi-pixel spectral imaging. Prior to irradiation, TPPS4 and TMPyP localized mainly in the lysosomes, while irradiation or H2O2 treatment induced a relocalization into the nucleus and nucleoli. Flow cytometry analysis of isolated nuclei from the treated cells showed an increase in nuclear fluorescence accompanying the relocalization. Isolation and separation of the nuclear proteins according to molecular weight was performed using a sephadex G-100 column. The protein fractions exhibiting high fluorescence were separated by high performance liquid chromatography. Five major classes of proteins with a retention time of 1, 7, 11, 12 and 15 min were obtained. Each photosensitizer was associated with a distinct class of proteins. While TPPS4 fluorescence was detected in the protein fraction with a retention time of 11 min, TMPyP fluorescence was associated with a protein fraction having a retention time of 7 min. We conclude that although oxidative stress triggers entry into the nucleus of both TPPS4 and TMPyP, each sensitizer uses a distinct transport mechanism based on its chemical properties.     

Production of poly(4-hydroxybutyric acid) by fed-batch cultures of recombinant strains of Escherichia coli

A recombinant strain of Escherichia coli was used to produce poly(4-hydroxybutyric acid), P(4HB), homopolyester by fed-batch culture in M9 mineral salts medium containing glucose and 4-hydroxybutyric acid as carbon sources. The final cell dry weight, P(4HB) concentration and P(4HB) content were 12.6 g/l, 4.4 g/l, and 36% of cell dry weight, respectively, in a 27-l stirred and aerated fermenter after 60 h of fed-batch fermentation at constant pH.     

Studies on the stimulation of gluconeogenesis and lipolysis by glucagon and epinephrine in isolated rat Kupffer cells.

Kupffer cells were isolated by collagenease-pronase treatment. Activity and leakage of GOT, GPT, LDH, GlDH and of nucleotide pyrophosphatase were measured and compared to parenchymal cells. In addition, the effects of glucagon and epinephrine on gluconeogenesis and lipolysis were studied. Both glucagon and epinephrine stimulated gluconeogenesis from lactate and alanine. The epinephrine response, however, was far greater than that of glucagon. Additional studies showed a 50% stimulation of lipolysis by epinephrine with triolein and tripalmitin as substrates. No stimulation of lipolysis was observed with glucagon.

VEGF-A signaling through Flk-1 is a critical facilitator of early embryonic lung epithelial to endothelial crosstalk and branching morphogenesis

Vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) signaling directs both vasculogenesis and angiogenesis. However, the role of VEGF-A ligand signaling in the regulation of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions during early mouse lung morphogenesis remains incompletely characterized. Fetal liver kinase-1 (Flk-1) is a VEGF cognate receptor (VEGF-R2) expressed in the embryonic lung mesenchyme. VEGF-A, expressed in the epithelium, is a high affinity ligand for Flk-1. We have used both gain and loss of function approaches to investigate the role of this VEGF-A signaling pathway during lung morphogenesis. Herein, we demonstrate that exogenous VEGF 164, one of the 3 isoforms generated by alternative splicing of the Vegf-A gene, stimulates mouse embryonic lung branching morphogenesis in culture and increases the index of proliferation in both epithelium and mesenchyme. In addition, it induces differential gene and protein expression among several key lung morphogenetic genes, including up-regulation of BMP-4 and Sp-c expression as well as an increase in Flk-1-positive mesenchymal cells. Conversely, embryonic lung culture with an antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) to the Flk-1 receptor led to reduced epithelial branching, decreased epithelial and mesenchymal proliferation index as well as downregulating BMP-4 expression. These results demonstrate that the VEGF pathway is involved in driving epithelial to endothelial crosstalk in embryonic mouse lung morphogenesis.
