大鼠卵巢细胞分泌纤溶酶原激活因子抑制因子(PAI-1)的激素调节

哺乳动物卵巢合成两类纤溶酶原激活因子(PA),即组织型PA(tPA)和尿激酶型PA(uPA)。大鼠卵巢除主要合成tPA外,还分泌一种纤溶酶激活因子的抑制因子(PAI-1)。在促性腺激素作用下,卵巢tPA和PAI-1两种基因的协调表达是导致滤泡破裂的原因。本实验进一步证实,卵巢中的PAI-1主要由膜-间质细胞分泌,可能作为一种屏障限制颗粒细胞tPA分泌到滤泡外间质。当排卵来临时,两种细胞所分泌的tPA和PAI-1相互作用后仍发现有大量tPA活性。这可能是引起排卵的主要原因。因为成熟的卵丘细胞除分泌高量tPA外,还分泌大量PAI-1,在人工授精中两者有可能作为鉴定卵子优劣的可靠指标。     

人子宫内膜纤蛋白溶酶元激活因子及其抑制因子的分布与调控

人子宫内膜中存在组织型(tPA)及尿激酶型(uPA)两类纤蛋白溶酶元激活因子,其含量在增殖期高于分泌期。本文应用免疫组织化学定位证实uPA及tPA两类抗原存在于子宫内膜的腺体细胞和间质细胞中。应用SDS-PAGE分高蛋白质,继而应用纤蛋白-琼脂糖铺盖技术测得离体培养下间质细胞仅释放tPA,腺体细胞仅释放uPA,但两种细胞均分泌PA的抑制因子(PAI)。培液中加入孕酮,明显抑制PA和刺激PAI生成。雌二醇作用与孕酮相反。某些肽类激素hCG、PRL、GnRH及cAMP作用基本与雌二醇相同。但福司克林(FK)则刺激间质、腺体两种细胞产生tPA及少量uPA,抑制PAI生成。本工作表明人子宫内膜中存在PA及PAI作用相反的酶,受激素调控,其生理意义尚待进一步探讨。     

小鼠排卵前后卵巢纤蛋白溶酶原激活因子活性的变化

给幼龄小鼠注射PMSG刺激滤泡生长,随后注射hCG以诱发排卵。在激素处理的不同时间取出卵巢,制备卵巢匀浆液或从卵巢中分离颗粒细胞和卵丘-卵母细胞复合体,并做离体培养。样品中组织型(tPA)和尿激酶型(uPA)纤蛋白溶酶原激活因子经SDS-凝胶电泳分离,用纤蛋白铺盖技术测定。实验结果表明,注射hCG 8h后15％的受试动物排卵,而卵巢匀浆液和颗粒细胞中tPA和uPA活性分别也在hCG注射后4和8h达到高峰。排卵后酶活性下降。卵丘-卵母细胞复合体主要含tPA,注射hCG 12—24h达到高峰。上述资料证明,tPA和uPA都参入小鼠排卵过程。因为排出的卵子中仍含有大量tPA,卵细胞的tPA除参与排卵外,可能对排卵后的一些生理过程也起重要作用。     

猕猴精浆纤溶酶原激活因子的来源及在精子获能中的作用

我们的前期工作表明,不育症人精液中纤溶酶原激活因子（plasminogen activator;PA）活性明显升高;给成年办和猕猴注射长效睾酮诱发无精过程中,精液PA含量也伴随上升,为进一步查明PA的来源和对精子的作用,原位杂交检测组织型PA（tPA）,尿激酶型PA（uPA）及PA抑制因子－1（PAI-1)泊mRNAs在成年健康猕附睾、前列腺和精囊中的表达。体外培养猕猴精子,培液中加入uPA、tPA及其底物纤溶酶原（plasminogen）,测试PA对精子活力、顶体反应及激活卵子的影响。结果表明,猕猴附睾、前列腺和精囊均表达tPA、uPA和PAI-1 mRNAs。加入uPA能维持精子的活力,使精子产生超激活运动,诱导顶体反应的发生,并使精子获得激活卵子的能力,这说明猕猴精浆PA除来源于睾丸外,可能主要来源于附睾及附性腺;在体外,uPA,而不是tPA,可能诱导精子获能。     

促乳素抑制促性腺激素诱导小鼠卵巢的纤蛋白溶酶原激活因子增加和排卵

为进一步研究纤溶酶原激活因子(PA)在排卵中的作用,我们观察了促乳素(PRL)对hCG诱导小鼠卵巢PA增加和排卵的影响。实验结果表明;(1)PRL抑制促性腺激素诱导小鼠排卵。当bCG注射18 h后,在输卵管中发现卵子平均为31.1±6.7,而hCG加PRL组为19.7±4.9;当hCG注射24 h后,输卵管中发现卵子数为32.3±10.8,hCG加PRL组为20.3±5.4;其抑制率分别为36.5％和37％;(2)PRL对排卵的抑制作用是通过抑制促性腺激素对小鼠颗粒细胞(GC)和膜-间质细胞(TIC)PA分泌的结果;(3)在离体实验中PRL也明显抑制促性腺激素对小鼠GC PA分泌的作用。这些结果进一步证实PA在排卵过程中的重要作用。

三七皂苷Rg1对tPA和PAI-1活性的调节作用

探讨三七皂苷Rg1对组织型纤溶酶原激活物(tPA)和纤溶酶原激活物抑制物(PAI-1)活性的调节作用。运用发色底物方法测定三七皂苷Rg1在体外和静脉注射对家兔血浆纤溶酶原激活物(tPA)和血浆或血小板释放的纤溶酶原激活物抑制物(PAI-1)水平的影响。结果表明,三七皂苷Rg1在体外呈浓度依赖性明显抑制血浆PAI-1活性,同时提高血浆tPA活性;30和60 mg/kg的三七皂苷Rg1静脉注射显著抑制血浆PAI-1活性,提高血浆tPA活性,同时降低凝血酶激活的血小板所释放的PAI-1水平。本实验提示三七皂苷Rg1能抑制PAI-1活性,同时升高tPA活性可能是其抗血栓作用的分子机制之一。     

同型半胱氨酸对人脐静脉血管内皮细胞tPA 及PAI-1基因表达的影响

目的探讨同型半胱氨酸(Hcy)对纤溶系统的影响,观察Hcy在转录水平对人脐静脉血管内皮细胞(HUVEC)表达组织型纤溶酶原激活物(tPA)和纤溶酶原激活物抑制剂1(PAI1)的影响。方法将体外培养的HUVEC分为生理浓度(10μmol/LHcy)组,病理浓度(50、200、500μmol/L)Hcy组及单纯培养基组(0μmol/LHcy),培养24h后,提取RNA,反转录聚合酶链反应分析(RTPCR)法分析各组tPA及PAI1基因表达水平。结果500μmol/LHcy组与10μmol/LHcy组相比,tPAmRNA基因表达明显下调(P<0.05),PAI1mRNA表达则明显上调(P<0.05)。而与单纯培养基组相比,10μmol/LHcy组tPAmRNA表达明显增高(P<0.05)。结论生理浓度Hcy可以增加纤溶系统活性,减少血栓性疾病的发生。高Hcy(病理浓度)则抑制纤溶系统活性,促进缺血性心脑血管疾病的发生。

纤溶酶原在金黄色葡萄球菌感染中的作用

金黄色葡萄球菌菌体表面有多种纤溶酶原受体,包括次黄嘌呤单核苷酸脱氢酶、核糖核苷酸还原酶、α-烯醇化酶和3-磷酸甘油醛脱氢酶等,它们均可以与纤溶酶原结合。与细菌结合的纤溶酶原可被宿主的纤溶酶原激活剂(组织型纤溶酶原激活剂和尿激酶型纤溶酶原激活剂)或葡萄菌属的纤溶酶原激活剂(葡激酶)激活为纤溶酶。细菌表面的纤溶酶有利于其降解宿主胞外基质,穿越组织屏障,因此哺乳动物的纤溶酶原可能在金黄色葡萄球菌感染宿主过程中起重要作用。     

Regulation of tissue-type plasminogen activator and plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 in cultured rat Sertoli and Leydig cells

New data are provided to show that (i) rat Sertoli cells produce two types of plasminogen activators, tissue type (tPA) and urokinase type (uPA), and a plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1); (ii) both tPA (but not uPA) and PAI-1 secretion in the culture are modified by FSH, forskolin, dbcAMP, GnRH, PMA and growth factors (EGF and FGF), but not by hCG and androstenedione (△4); (iii) in vitro secretion of tPA and PA-PAI-1 complexes of Sertoli cells are greatly enhanced by presence of Leydig cells which produce negligible tPA but measurable PAI-1 activity;(iv) combination culture of Sertoli and Leydig cells remarkably increases FSH-induced PAI-1 activity and decreases hCG- and forskolin-induced inhibitor activity as compared with that of two cell types cultured alone. These data suggest that rat Sertoli cells, similar to ovarian granulosa cells, are capable of secreting both tPA and uPA, as well as PAI-1. The interaction of Sertoli cells and Leydig cells is essential for the cells to response to     

组织型纤溶酶原活化物的纯化及性质研究

本文主要是观察促乳素（ＰＲＬ）是否曩体外培养的大鼠颗粒细胞中,组织纤溶酶原激活因子（ｔＰＡ）和Ｉ型纤溶酶原激活因子抑制因子（ＰＡＩ－Ｉ）基因表达间的协调作用。我们采用了多种方法,例如ＳＤＳ－ＰＡＧＥ、免疫印迹等,来检测ＰＲＬ对ｔＰＡ和ＰＡＩ－Ｉ基因表达的作用。结果证实：（１）在离体条件下促乳素（ＰＲＬ）能刺激颗粒细胞（ＧＣ）中ＰＡＩ－Ｉ ｍＲＮＡ的合成,而ＦＳＨ无此作用。但ＦＳＨ可与ＰＲＬ协同增加     

Urokinase-type and tissue-type plasminogen activators have different distributions in cultured bovine capillary endothelial cells

The cell extracts and conditioned medium from cultured bovine capillary endothelial (BCE) cells were examined to determine the types of plasminogen activator (PA) present in each of these two fractions. The fractions were first analyzed by fibrin autography after sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The cell extracts contained two species of PA of Mr 48,000 and 28,000. Multiple forms of PA were detected in the conditioned medium: variable amounts of the Mr 48,000 and 28,000 forms and a broad band of activity with Mr in the range of 67,000-93,000. The major fraction of the Mr 48,000 form was in the cell extract. Treatment of the cells with 12-0-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate or with a preparation containing angiogenic activity resulted in a proportionate increase in the levels of all forms. The Mr 48,000 form was demonstrated to be a urokinase-like PA, since it was immunoprecipitated with antibodies to urokinase. When conditioned medium or cell extracts from biosynthetically labelled BCE cells were incubated with antiserum to urokinase, the Mr 48,000 form was immunoprecipitated only from the cell extract. The Mr 67,000-93,000 forms were demonstrated to be tissue-type PAs, since they were immunoprecipitated with antibodies to tissue PA. When the same conditioned medium or cell extracts were incubated with antiserum to tissue-type PA, the Mr 67,000-93,000 forms were immunoprecipitated only from the conditioned medium. Therefore, BCE cells are able to produce both tissue-type PA, which is primarily secreted, and urokinase-type PA, which remains primarily cell associated.     

Expression of plasminogen activator and plasminogen activator inhibitor mRNA in human fibroblasts grown on different substrates

mRNA levels for urokinase type plasminogen activator (uPA), tissue type plasminogen activator (tPA), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-2 (PAI-2) were examined in human diploid (neonatal foreskin) fibroblasts grown in 200-ml microcarrier suspension culture. Four different substrates were used. These included gelatin-coated polystyrene plastic, DEAE-dextran, glass-coated polystyrene plastic and uncoated polystyrene plastic. Our previous studies have shown that culture fluids from diploid fibroblasts grown on DEAE-dextran contained higher levels of plasminogen-dependent fibrinolytic activity than culture fluids from the same cells grown on other substrates. The increased plasminogen activator activity was due largely to elevated amounts of tPA (In Vitro Cell. Develop. Biol. 22: 575–582, 1986). The present study shows that there is a corresponding elevation of tPA mRNA in diploid fibroblasts cultured on DEAE-dextran relative to the other substrates. There does not appear to be any difference in uPA mRNA or in mRNA for PAI-1 or PAI-2 produced by the same cells on the four substrates. These data suggest that the influence of the substrate on plasminogen activator production is mediated at the genetic level.     

Moderate Exercise and Fibrinolytic Potential in Obese Sedentary Men with Metabolic Syndrome

Objective: To investigate the impact of 30‐minute walking exercise at 70% Vo _2max on tissue plasminogen activator (t‐PA) Ag and plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI‐1) Ag in obese sedentary males. Research Methods and Procedures: A controlled observational study of the effect of a 30‐minute acute exercise bout at 70% Vo _2max on plasma t‐PA antigen and PAI‐1 antigen in 10 obese sedentary males matched for age, ethnic origin, and smoking status with 10 nonobese sedentary male controls. Results: The obese group remained hypofibrinolytic compared with the nonobese group at all time‐points before, during, and after exercise. t‐PA increased in both groups with exercise before returning to baseline values 30 minutes after exercise. PAI‐1 did not significantly change in either group with exercise but rose significantly 30 minutes after exercise in the obese group. Discussion: The reduction in fibrinolytic potential in the obese group represents an increase in acute thrombotic risk and could account for the increased incidence of exercise‐associated myocardial infarction observed in sedentary obese groups.     

Properties of epithelial cells cultured from human carcinomas and nonmalignant tissues

Human epithelial cell cultures were examined for expression of plasminogen activator and fibronectin matrix. All of the cells examined showed ultrastructural evidence suggesting their epithelial origin, including microvilli and specialized junctions. The nonmalignant cells were also negative for endothelial cell markers (ie, they lacked factor VIII antigen, a nonthrombogenic surface and Weibel-Palade bodies). The nonmalignant lines all produced large amounts of plasminogen activator, whereas the tumor-derived lines showed a gradation of activities, ranging from lines having as much activity as the nonmalignant lines to lines having little or no activity above background. For both normal and malignant cells, addition of dexamethesone only slightly decreased the levels of plasminogen activator. By immunofluorescence microscopy, normal bladder and fetal intestine epithelial cells showed fibronectin in a globular and fibrillar matrix. In contrast, normal mammary epithelial cells had a much diminished amount of fibronectin with a punctate distribution.
