骨形态发生蛋白(bone morphogenetic proteins, BMPs)是一类在发育过程中起重要作用的分子。除BMP-1外,其他BMP分子均属于转化生长因子-β(transforming growth factor-β, TGF-β)/BMP超家族的发育信号分子。在胚胎发育过程中,这些信号分子通过形成浓度梯度对背—腹轴各向异性分化进行调控。它们借助细胞表面受体的识别进行信号传导,参与调控细胞分化、增殖等活动。而BMP-1则属于细胞外基质金属蛋白酶超家族中的Tolloid蛋白酶家族。BMP-1通过水解其他BMP的抑制物(如脊索发生素,Chordin),达到促进其他BMP信号传导的目的。BMP-1、BMP和Chordin三者通过相互制约与相互促进等一系列作用,在背—腹沿线建立起稳定的BMP信号梯度。本文就BMP浓度梯度的形成及其稳态维持的机制进行回顾与总结。并在此基础上,对各个物种间BMP浓度梯度形成机制的异同,以及可能存在的协同进化进行比较、分析和讨论。 相似文献

左右不对称是两侧对称动物的重要特征,其形成机制一直是发育生物学领域备受关注的科学问题之一。脊椎动物的左右不对称发生经过3个重要阶段:左右对称性的打破,左右不对称信号的建立和维持,以及左右不对称器官的形态发生。多数脊椎动物在胚胎发育阶段依赖纤毛产生定向液流打破胚胎的左右对称性,随后建立Nodal-Pitx2左右不对称信号,最后由Pitx2等基因指导左右不对称器官的形态发生过程。无脊椎动物中存在不依赖纤毛介导的Nodal-Pitx不对称信号表达机制,甚至具有完全独立的左右不对称发育机制。本文结合最新的左右不对称器官发育机制的研究进展,综述了脊椎动物和无脊椎动物胚胎左右不对称的发生过程及相关基因和信号通路,有助于深入理解左右不对称器官发育的过程,以期为追溯左右不对称器官发育机制的起源演化提供参考。 相似文献

表观遗传信息DNA甲基化在动物的发育、细胞分化和器官形成过程中,起着至关重要的作用.近期,关于DNA甲基化在脊椎动物胚胎发育和生殖细胞发育过程重编程的研究取得了重要的进展.发现斑马鱼的早期胚胎完整地继承了精子的DNA甲基化图谱,而哺乳动物的早期胚胎和原始生殖细胞发育过程则经历了整体去甲基化并重新建立甲基化图谱的过程,但胚胎发育过程中基因的印迹区未发生DNA去甲基化,而生殖细胞发育过程中印迹区的甲基化修饰被消除. 相似文献

目的分析与转录调节相关的人类21号染色体(HC21)基因在小鼠植入前胚胎发育过程中的表达模式,初步阐明这些基因与早期胚胎发育的关系,发现这些基因作为分子诊断标记物的可行性。方法应用植入前胚胎的GlobalRT-PCR方法,对BACH1、RUNX1、SIM-2、ERG、KIAA0136、GCFC、SON、PKNOX1、HSF2BP和NRIP1小鼠同源基因在植入前发育阶段的表达模式进行研究。结果RUNX1、ERG和SON在整个植入前发育过程中都未见表达。其他基因的表达呈现出阶段特异性表达的特点:BACH1几乎在整个发育过程中都有表达,但是存在着胚胎个体之间的差异,不适于作为分子标记物;SIM-2只在1和2细胞期表达;Kiaa0136在2、4细胞期以外的各个阶段均表达;除了1-和2-细胞期,GCFC在其它阶段普遍表达;PKNOX1只在1、8细胞以及桑椹期表达;而HSF2BP和NRIP1的表达仅见于成熟的卵母细胞和1细胞期胚胎。结论与转录相关的小鼠HC21同源基因大部分参与了早期胚胎发育的转录调节,这些基因的阶段特异性表达说明他们参与了早期胚胎发育的不同转录调节环节,对这些基因的深入研究是认识唐氏综合症发生的分子机制和发现早期分子诊断标记的基础。 相似文献

New sulfur derivatives of phosphoramidite ligands were synthesized and the impact of the sulfur unit on the spectroscopic properties of their rhodium and iridium complexes was investigated. The new ligands Bn2NPSCH2CH2Sa(P-Sa) (Bn = benzyl, 4), Bn2NPSCHCHSa(CH2)3CaH2(P-Sa)(Ca-Sa) (6) and Bn2NP(4-XC6H4OMe)2 (X = S, 7a; X = O, 7b) were converted to the rhodium and iridium complexes trans-[Rh(CO)Cl(L)2] (L = 4, 6, 7), [RhCl(COD)(L)] (L = 4, 6, 7), [IrCl(COD)(7a)] and [IrCl2Cp∗(6)]. For comparison, some phosphoramidite complexes of these formulations also were synthesized. The new metal complexes were spectroscopically analyzed. For the carbonyl complexes, the νCO IR stretching frequencies were lower than for the corresponding phosphite and phosphoramidite ligands. The 1JPRh coupling constants for the rhodium complexes with the new ligands were also smaller than for the respective phosphoramidite and phosphite complexes. Finally, the 1JPSe coupling constants of the selenides of the new ligands were lower than those of the phosphoramidite ligands but higher than for PPh3. The spectroscopic data reveal that the new thio ligands 4, 6 and 7a are more electron donating than phosphites and phosphoramidites but less electron donating than PPh3. 相似文献

Astrocytes transport the monocarboxylate acetate, but synaptosomes do not. The reason for this is unknown, because both preparations express monocarboxylate transporters (MCT). The transport and metabolism of lactate, another monocarboxylate, was examined in these two preparations, and the results were compared to those for acetate. Lactate transport is more rapid in astrocytes than in synaptosomes, but of lower affinity (Kms of 17 and 4 mM, respectively). Lactate (0.2 mM) is metabolized to CO2 more rapidly in synaptosomes than in astrocytes (rates of 0.37 and 0.07 nmol x mg protein(-1) x min(-1), respectively). The reason for this is unclear, but cellular differences in lactate dehydrogenase isotype expression may be involved. Acetate is metabolized to CO2 more rapidly in astrocytes than in synaptosomes (rates of 0.43 and 0.02 nmol x mg protein(-1) x min(-1), respectively). This is likely due to cellular differences in the expression of monocarboxylate transporter subtypes. 相似文献

To elucidate accumulation of minerals in human iliac arteries with aging, the content of minerals was analyzed by inductively
coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. Bilateral common, internal, and external iliac arteries of 16 men and 8 women,
ranging ages from 65 to 93 yr, were examined. It was found that an extremely high accumulation of calcium and phosphorus occurred
in the common iliac artery at old age, being higher than that of the internal and external iliac arteries. It should be noted
that the accumulation of calcium and phosphorus is the highest in the common iliac artery among the human arteries examined
to date.
Regarding sexual differences, the content of calcium and phosphorus in the common and internal iliac arteries was higher in
women than in men, whereas their content in the external iliac artery was lower in women than in men. 相似文献

Cytoskeleton and mitochondrial morphology and function 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
It has been well established that the cytoskeleton is an essential modulator of cell morphology and motility, intracytoplasmic transport and mitosis, however cytoskeletal linkage to the organelles has not been unequivocally demonstrated. Indeed, cytoskeleton appears to be essential in determining and modulating gene phenotype as a function of cellular environment. According to recent studies, the organization of the cytoskeleton network together with associated protein(s) could be essential in regulating mitochondrial function and particularly the permeability of the mitochondrial outer membrane to ADP. The aim of this chapter is to summarize the main properties of the cytoskeletal environment of mitochondria and the possible role(s) of this network in mitochondrial function in myocytes. 相似文献

In spite of the many studies on protein modifications by reactive species, knowledge about the products resulting from the oxidation of protein-aromatic residues, including protein-derived radicals and their stable products, remains limited. Here, we compared the oxidative modifications promoted by peroxynitrite and myeloperoxidase/hydrogen peroxide/nitrite in two model proteins, ribonuclease (6Tyr) and lysozyme (3Tyr/6Trp). The formation of protein-derived radicals and products was higher at pH 5.4 and 7.4 for myeloperoxidase and peroxynitrite, respectively. The main product was 3-nitro-Tyr for both proteins and oxidants. Lysozyme rendered similar yields of nitro-Trp, particularly when oxidized by peroxynitrite. Hydroxylated and dimerized products of Trp and Tyr were also produced, but in lower yields. Localization of the main modified residues indicates that peroxynitrite decomposes to radicals within the proteins behaving less specifically than myeloperoxidase. Nitrogen dioxide is emphasized as an important protein modifier. 相似文献

The ability of partially purified human and guinea-pig haematogenous cell populations, when cultured in vitro, to metabolise arachidonic acid (AA) has been studied. Supernatants from 24 hour cell culture have been subjected to analysis for products of AA metabolism by gas chromatography with electron-capture detection.The cell types studied were human peripheral blood monocytes (both glass adherent and non-adherent), neutrophils, eosinophils and leukemic leucocytes; thoracic duct lymphocytes and lung alveolar macrophages. From the guinea-pig, induced and non-induced macrophage or neutrophil enriched peritoneal exudate populations, lymph node cells, peritoneal eosinophils and peripheral blood platelets were examined. Supernatants were assayed for the presence of PGE2, PGD2, PGF2α, TXB2 and 6-keto-PGF1α. In all types studied PGE2 and TXB2 were the major products formed. The identification of PGE2 and TXB2 was confirmed by GC/MS with multiple ion monitoring.The results have been compared with other reports and their possible significance discussed in relation to the proposed role of prostaglandins as mediators and modulators in immunopathology. 相似文献
