P53和PCNA的表达与大肠癌关系的免疫组织化学研究

本研究采用免疫组织细胞化学ＡＢＣ法对６２例大肠癌区、癌移行区及癌旁区组织内Ｐ５３和ＰＣＮＡ蛋白进行检测。结果表明,Ｐ５３蛋白在大肠癌区阳性率占６１．３％（３８／６２）、ＰＣＮＡ蛋白阳性率占７１．０％（４４／６２）、阳性结果均位于癌细胞核内,Ｐ５３蛋白阳性的癌细胞,少部分为核浆型。Ｐ５３及ＰＣＮＡ蛋白联合表达与大肠癌发生及发展相关密切,并互相协同致癌,对大肠癌分化程度和Ｄｕｋｅｓ分期影响较大,为大肠癌病变研究提供了分子生物学信息,对手术切除缘范围和评估大肠癌转移和预后有一定参考价值。     

p53突变蛋白在胃癌组织中的表达及免疫电镜观察

作者应用抗ｐ５３单克隆抗体Ｐａｂ１８０１（Ａｂ２美国癌基因公司产品）对３８例手术切除的胃癌组织及癌旁胃粘膜的冰冻切片标本进行ｐ５３突变蛋白表达的检测,并进一步用胶体全免疫电镜技术对ｐ５３突变蛋白的分布特征进行观察。结果：３８例胃癌组织中,２４例有ｐ５３突变蛋白高表达,阳性率６３．２％。在对应的癌旁胃粘膜中１０例为ｐ５３的弱表达,正常组织无表达。伴有淋巴结转移的２３例胃癌标本中,１８例ｐ５３高表达（７８．３％）。免疫电镜结果表现,ｐ５３蛋白主要分布于核内染色质中,胞浆中有散在的阳性区,但以核膜周边为主,紧靠核膜。本研究结果提承胃癌的发生及其肿瘤的生物学行为与抑癌基因ｐ５３的突变密切相关,ｐ５３突变蛋白可能是通过对ＤＮＡ复制的影响而参与肿瘤的形成。

甲状腺肿瘤p53mRNA及p53蛋白表达的研究

本文采用原位杂交法、免疫组织化学方法分别检测了甲状腺癌ｐ５３ｍＲＮＡ、ｐ５３蛋白的表达,结果显示：２０例甲状腺癌ｐ５３ｍＲＮＡ、ｐ５３蛋白均呈阳性反应,８例甲状腺瘤仅１例呈弱阳性反应,８例Ｇｒａｖｅｓ病全部呈阴性反应。细胞质和细胞核ｍＲＮＡ、ｐ５３蛋白灰度检测发现,甲状腺瘤细胞质、核ｐ５３ｍＲＮＡ灰度值和ｐ５３蛋白灰度值均明显高于Ｇｒａｖｅｓ病,而甲状腺癌其细胞质、核ｐ５３ｍＲＮＡ灰度值和ｐ５３蛋白灰度值又明显高于良性甲状腺瘤,提示甲状腺癌ｐ５３ｍＲＮＡ和ｐ５３蛋白的高表达可能与甲状腺肿瘤细胞分化程度有关     

bcl-2癌基因蛋白在甲状腺癌中的表达及其意义

利用免疫组织化学技术,对６４例甲状腺癌进行了ｂｃｌ－２蛋白表达的检测,同时进行ｐ５３蛋白的对照检测。结果显示,甲状腺癌中ｂｃｌ－２蛋白阳性表达率为８１．３％（５２／６４）,但未分化癌无阳性表达。ｐ５３蛋白在甲状腺癌的阳性表达率为２０．３％（１３／６４）,而未分化癌全部为阳性表达。两种抗体在甲状腺癌的阳性表达率有显著性差异（Ｐ＜０．０１）。结果提示ｂｃｌ－２蛋白在甲状腺癌的表达与肿瘤细胞的分化程度有关,并与ｐ５３蛋白呈反比关系,ｂｃｌ－２与ｐ５３蛋白表达的不同分布可作为判断甲状腺癌预后的一个重要参考指标     

DMBA、垂体移植诱发性乳腺瘤内172~（Arg－Leu）突变型p53的特性及其与基因重排和扩增关系的研究

ｐ５３最早发现于ＳＶ４０转化的细胞系,后来几乎在所有不同类型的细胞内均检测到这种蛋白质,野生型Ｐ５８是一种有效的肿瘤抑制因子,但突变体ｐ５２可与ｒａｓ－肿瘤基因协同转化体外的腺代细胞,而且在肿瘤发生时常伴随有ｐ５３基因的突变。乳腺癌内,ｐ５３基因的突变率为４０％,并可见到某些肿瘤基因参与癌症的形成过程,暗示ｐ５３基因结构和功能的改变可能与这些基因的重排和扩增有关。本实验选择４种不同年龄的１７２~（Ａｒｇ－Ｌｅｕ）突变型ｐ５３转基因小鼠为受试动物,将同系动物的垂体腺植入小鼠的肾脏后,再以致癌剂ＤＭＢＡ处理,以使动物乳腺内的ｐ５３基因表达和诱导小鼠乳腺癌形成。从乳腺癌小鼠分别摘取乳腺组织,提取ＤＮＡ和ＲＮＡ,以Ｈ－ｒａｓ、ＰＣＮＡ、ＣｙｌｉｎＤ１、ｐ５３基因的ＤＮＡ片段作为特异性核酸探针,进行ＳｏｕｔｈｅｒｍＢｌｏｔｔｉｎｇ和ＮｏｒｔｈｅｒｎＢｌｏｔｔｉｎｇ分析,以检测在突变体Ｐ５３表达的情况下,ＰＣＮＡ、Ｈ－ｒａｓ、ＣｙｉｎＤ１等基因在体内的变化规律。实验发现,在４组不同的受试动物中,其乳腺癌细胞的ＰＣＮＡ和Ｈ－ｒａｓ两种基因发生了基因重排,特征是其ＤＮＡ标本中分别出现了一条很强的额外杂交带,但对照动物乳腺该类

Immunoaffinity isolation of Na+ channels from rat skeletal muscle. Analysis of subunits

Polyclonal antiserum and monoclonal antibodies raised against the sodium channel from rat skeletal muscle sarcolemma have been immobilized on Sepharose and used to immunoaffinity purify this channel directly from skeletal muscle without the intervening purification of surface membranes. These antibodies isolate a approximately 260-kDa protein from whole muscle, although each purifies predominantly a 150-kDa component when isolated sarcolemmal membranes are used as starting material. A 45-kDa band is also found in the material purified from sarcolemma but not that obtained from whole muscle. In addition, these immunoaffinity columns isolate a 38-kDa band from both whole muscle and sarcolemma that copurifies with the 260-kDa protein. In some preparations this component appears as two closely spaced bands of 37 and 39 kDa. These small subunits coelute with the 260-kDa subunit when thiocyanate gradients are used to displace protein bound to the immunoaffinity columns and behave as integral components of the sodium channel. Estimates of stoichiometry were made for the large and small subunits of the muscle channel protein. After correction for labeling efficiency, values consistent with a ratio of one 260-kDa subunit to one 38-kDa subunit were obtained. We conclude that the rat skeletal muscle sodium channel contains a large alpha subunit of approximately 260 kDa that is sensitive to proteolytic nicking during the isolation of sarcolemmal membranes. In addition, at least one 38-kDa beta subunit is associated with each alpha subunit in the native channel.     

美洲大蠊主要变应原蛋白的质谱鉴定与分析

为了建立美洲大蠊Periplaneta americana变应原蛋白的质谱鉴定方法,我们将美洲大蠊粗浸液通过DEAE-52离子交换层析、Sephacryl S-200凝胶过滤层析等分离步骤得到纯化的74 kD蛋白,对纯化前后的该74 kD蛋白分别进行SDS-PAGE及凝胶内胰酶酶切,再经液相色谱-电喷雾-串联质谱（HPLC-ESI-MS/MS）在线联机分析,所得质谱数据进入网站（http://www.matrixscience.com）进行Mascot检索比对。通过对两者质谱鉴定结果的比较来评估美洲大蠊天然主要变应原蛋白的纯化效果。结果表明,纯化蛋白经HPLC-ESI-MS/MS鉴定是美洲大蠊主要变应原蛋白;离子交换层析等纯化步骤可以去除同一分子量的杂蛋白(如卵黄原蛋白),从而获得较好的鉴定结果。我们首次成功地运用质谱建立起变应原蛋白的新鉴定方法。

Monoclonal Antibodies to and Immunoaffinity Purification of Choline Acetyltransferase from Bovine Brain

Three hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies to bovine brain choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) have been established by fusion of the spleen cells from a mouse immunized with purified enzyme with myeloma NS-1 cells. All three clones produced IgGl antibodies that reacted with enzyme protein denatured with sodium dodecyl sulfate. By using one of the monoclonal antibodies, a rapid and efficient immunoaffinity purification procedure of bovine ChAT has been established. Immunoblot analysis and immunoaffinity purification indicated that bovine ChAT is a single 68-kilodalton protein. The monoclonal antibodies will offer us a good tool to isolate the cDNA clones encoding ChAT.     

Brain nicotinic receptors isolated by a monospecific antibody against a synthetic alpha-3 subunit receptor peptide compared to a monoclonal anti-idiotypic (to nicotine) antibody.

Nicotinic cholinergic receptor proteins purified from rat brain by immunoaffinity chromatography were characterized using the anti-S3 polyclonal antibody vs. the anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibody 422F11 (generated against an antibody to nicotine). Anti-S3 IgG was purified to homogeneity; anti-S3-Sepharose 4B and 422F11-Sepharose 4B each depleted 3H-nicotine binding sites from brain. Nicotinic receptors isolated from both immunoaffinity columns showed major bands (silver-stained) at 55K and 70K. Using anti-S3 serum as probe, Western blots of nicotinic receptors isolated by the two immunoaffinity gels also showed major bands at 55 and 70K. However, Western blots of fresh brain extracts revealed a major band at 80K and minor bands at 55K and 70K. These results show similar nicotinic cholinergic receptor proteins isolated by the anti-S3 and 422F11 anti-idiotypic antibodies; 80K was dominant only when fresh brain extract was subjected to Western blotting without prior immunoaffinity purification.     

Purification and characterization of placental protein 5

This report describes the purification of placental protein 5, PP5, from the human placenta by two affinity chromatography steps, the first with Heparin-Sepharose and the second with Sepharose-linked monoclonal anti-PP5 antibody. The final purification is achieved by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography. In SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under reducing or nonreducing conditions, PP5 purified in this study migrates as one major band at 36 kD. The previously purified PP5 is more heterogeneous: under nonreducing conditions it migrates at 30 kD and, after reduction, it gives three bands at 16.8 kD, 18.3 kD, and 19.0 kD. In Western blot analysis, both purified proteins react with polyclonal and monoclonal anti-PP5 antibodies. Three N-terminal amino acid sequences are obtained for the previously purified PP5, whereas the N-terminal of PP5 purified in this study is blocked. These results suggest that PP5 previously purified in the absence of protease inhibitors, does not represent the native form of PP5. Computer comparison of the obtained amino acid sequences revealed no significant homology to known protein sequences.     

Arylamine N-acetyltransferase from chicken liver. I. Monoclonal antibodies, immunoaffinity purification, and amino acid sequences

Five monoclonal antibodies against arylamine acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.5) from the chicken liver were established by immunizing a mouse with a partially purified enzyme preparation. None of the antibodies cross-reacted with arylamine N-acetyltransferase from the livers of cow, rabbit, and rat, nor with arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase from the chicken pineal gland, indicating a high specificity of the antibodies. By using the antibodies, two immunoaffinity purification procedures were elaborated: A partially purified enzyme preparation was incubated with the monoclonal antibody, and the resulting enzyme-IgG complex was separated by a protein A-Sepharose column. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed a single protein band with a molecular mass of 34 kDa in addition to the heavy and light chains of IgG. Secondly, an immunoaffinity column was prepared by immobilizing a monoclonal antibody to Sepharose 4B. After a partially purified enzyme preparation was absorbed on the column, N-acetyltransferase activity was eluted with 1 M NaCl and 1 M urea. The eluted sample contained a single 34-kDa protein. The purified enzyme preferred arylamines to arylalkylamines as substrates, indicating that it was arylamine N-acetyltransferase. The purified protein was subjected to digestion by lysylendopeptidase and separated by high performance liquid chromatography. Partial amino acid sequences of three peptides were determined by a gas-phase sequence analyzer.     

Purification and properties of retinol- and retinoic acid-binding proteins from a transplantable mouse colon tumor

Cellular retinol-binding protein and retinoic acid-binding protein, the possible mediators of the action of retinoids in epithelial differentiation and control of tumorigenesis, have been reproducibly purified from mouse colon tumor 26, and some of their properties were studied. The main steps of purification involved acid-precipitation, DEAE-Sephadex, CM-cellulose and Sephadex G-100 chromatography. About 2 mg of the binding proteins were isolated from 60 g tumor. The purified preparations showed only two protein bands on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The two binding proteins were partially resolved by sedimentation equilibrium technique; but was completely separable by preparative electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The retinol- and retinoic acid-binding proteins are presumably monomers with molecular weights of 15,500 and 14,600, respectively, as determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. On gel filtration however, both the binding proteins retarded to the same molecular size of 17,800. On preparative columns, both the proteins expressed the same isoelectric pH, 4.5. Both proteins of the tumor possessed functional thiol groups. The mercurial inhibition of the binding capacity of the proteins for their ligands was reversible upon treatment with thiol compounds.     

A photoreceptor calcium binding protein is recognized by autoantibodies obtained from patients with cancer-associated retinopathy

Cancer-associated retinopathy (CAR), a paraneoplastic syndrome, is characterized by the degeneration of retinal photoreceptors under conditions where the tumor and its metastases have not invaded the eye. The retinopathy often is apparent before the diagnosis of cancer and may be associated with autoantibodies that react with specific sites in the retina. We have examined the sera from patients with CAR to further characterize the retinal antigen. Western blot analysis of human retinal proteins reveals a prominent band at 26 kD that is labeled by the CAR antisera. Antibodies to the 26-kD protein were affinity-purified from complex CAR antisera and used for EM-immunocytochemical localization of the protein to the nuclei, inner and outer segments of both rod and cone cells. Other antibodies obtained from the CAR sera did not label photoreceptors. Using the affinity-purified antibodies for detection, the 26-kD protein, designated p26, was purified to homogeneity from the outer segments of bovine rod photoreceptor cells by Phenyl-Sepharose and ion exchange chromatography. Partial amino acid sequence of p26 was determined by gas phase Edman degradation and revealed extensive homology with a cone-specific protein, visinin. Based upon structural relatedness, both the p26 rod protein and visinin are members of the calmodulin family and contain calcium binding domains of the E-F hand structure.     

Rapid purification of phospholamban by monoclonal antibody immunoaffinity chromatography

Monoclonal antibodies have been raised against canine phospholamban purified by sodium dodecyl sulfate - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Four of twenty-four antibodies were purified to close to homogeneity from mouse ascites. All four antibodies could react with isolated bovine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) to result in the stimulation of ATP-dependent Ca2+ pump activity and blocking of phospholamban phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Relative efficiencies of antibodies in Ca2+ pump stimulation and on phospholamban phosphorylation were not correlated. An immunoabsorbent prepared by conjugating antibody Al to Affi-Gel 10 was used for the purification of phospholamban. Isolated bovine cardiac SR was solubilized in a buffer containing deoxycholate and the soluble fraction was applied to the immunoaffinity column. After washing the column with a series of detergent-containing buffer solutions, the column-bound protein which contained essentially pure phospholamban was eluted by a buffer containing 2.8 M MgCl2. The phospholamban recovery from the immunoaffinity column was close to 100%; the overall yield of purification from SR vesicles was about 70%. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that purified phospholamban consisted of a 25 and 5 kilodalton (kDa) protein species. Upon brief boiling (20 s) of the sample in SDS-PAGE sample buffer, five molecular species ranging from 5 to 25 kDa could be detected by immunotransblotting following SDS-PAGE. This observation supports the notion that phospholamban is composed of five 5-kDa polypeptides. The pure phospholamban could be phosphorylated maximally by cAMP-dependent protein kinase to 1-1.5 mol phosphate/mol phospholamban (25,000 g). This stoichiometry of phosphorylation could be increased to about 5 upon addition of the immunoaffinity column flow through fraction.
