Effect of prostaglandin F2 alpha on the secretion of human prolactin

This study examines the role of PGF2a (prostaglandin F2alpha) in increasing the secretion rate of human prolactin. 11 women (mean gestational period, 18 weeks) seeking pregnancy termination were divided into 4 groups: 1) Group 1 consisted of 6 women who received 30 mg initially of PGF2a injected intramuscularly and an additional 15 mg after 24 hours if abortion had not occured; mean induction to termination period was 38 hours; 2) Group 2 comprised of 3 women who received PGF2a (500-1500 ug) via the transcervical route at 1 to 2 hourly interval; average number of injections was 20; mean induction to termination period, 24 hours; 3) Group 3 had 2 women receiving hypertonic saline by intraamniotic injection; mean induction to termination period was 51 hours; 4) Group 4 had 4 women who served as controls; mean observation period, 20 hours. Venous blood samples were heparinized in tubes at intervals of 2 to 3 hours. A homologous radioimmunoassay using highly purified human prolactin (for iodination and standards) plus rabbit antihuman prolactin measured serum prolactin. Spikes of serum prolactin up to 550 ng/ml were observed at irregular intervals in 5 women in Group 1; the spikes were less frequent and of smaller amplitude in Groups 3 and 4. The increase in serum prolactin was dramatic and more sustained in Group 2 patients and peaked towards the end of the prostaglandin infusion. Serum prolactin of Group 2 patients were significantly higher than those of Groups 3 and 4 (p0.01). 5 of 9 women whose pregnancies were terminated by PGF2a lactated. However, there was no significant difference between the mean serum prolactin levels in women who lactated (136 ng/ml) and those who did not (120 ng/ml). Although PGF2a is not a lactogenic hormone, this study shows that PGF2a stimulates the secretion of human prolactin during second trimester pregnancy. The fact that the transcervical route caused a significant increase in serum prolactin and the intraamniotic route did not is attributed to the increased systemic absorption of PGF2a following transcervical administration. No correlation was seen between the presence or absence of lactation and the serum prolactin level following pregnancy termination with PGF2a.     

Molecular cloning of rat cytolysin

Rat cytolysin is one of the cytolytic factors present in the cytoplasmic granules of rat NK-like cytolytic cells and purified cytolysin exhibits an apparent Mr or 70 kDa. Cytolysis produced by cytolysin occurs in the presence of Ca2+ and is accompanied by the formation of membrane lesions of 160 A diameter. We have isolated a cDNA encoding rat cytolysin from the cDNA library of a rat large granular lymphocyte (LGL) cell line, by hybridization of the rat library with a cDNA probe for mouse perforin. The amino acid sequence deduced from the nucleotide sequence of the isolated cDNA insert indicates that the mature cytolysin protein consist of 534 amino acids with a leader peptide of 20 amino acids. The protein contains two functionally important domains: the first domain is believed to contain the transmembrane channel and the second domain consists of an epidermal growth factor-type "class B" cysteine-rich region. A comparison with mouse perforin indicates that the two genes are very similar (89.9% nucleotide and 84.9% amino acid identity). Northern blot hybridization analysis indicates that cytolysin mRNA is expressed in rat lymphocytes (lymphokine-activated killer cells and LGL cells) and LGL cell lines.     

Pharmacologic profile of BN 50739, a new PAF antagonist in vitro and in vivo

The effect of a new PAF antagonist BN 50739 was studied on PAF-induced [3H]-serotonin release from washed rabbit platelets in vitro and on PAF-induced hypotension in vivo. BN 50739 competitively inhibited PAF-induced [3H]-serotonin release from the platelets in a dose-dependent manner. In the presence of 4, 10 and 50 nM of BN 50739, the concentration of PAF inducing 50% maximal [3H]-serotonin release from the platelets (EC50) increased from 2.15 nM to 5.10, 45.10 and 900 nM, respectively. The IC50 of BN 50739 for PAF (10 nM) induced [3H]-serotonin release was 3.67 nM. Under the same experimental condition, the IC50s of BN 50726, BN 50730, BN 50741, WEB 2086, SRI 63-441 and BN 52021 were 5.40, 4.61, 6.88, 5.98, 40.90 nM and 14.90 microM, respectively. PAF-induced hypotension in conscious rats was also inhibited dose-dependently by i.p. pretreatment of BN 50739 (3 and 10 mg/kg). PAF-induced hypotension was diminished both in magnitude and duration in rats pretreated with BN 50739. These data taken together indicate that BN 50739 is a most potent PAF antagonist in vitro and in vivo.     

Regulated, stable expression and nuclear presence of retrovirus double-stranded RNA-binding protein sigma3 in HeLa cells.

Reovirus genome segment S4 codes for polypeptide sigma3, a major outer capsid component of virions and a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-binding protein implicated in viral cytopathogenesis. We have constructed a stable HeLa cell line (S4tTA) that produces functional sigma3 under tetracycline transactivator control. In the absence of tetracycline, S4tTA cells synthesized stable dsRNA-binding sigma3 that accumulated in the nucleus as well as in the cytoplasm. However, in induced S4tTA cells also expressing reovirus outer shell polypeptide mu1/mu1C, migration of sigma3 into the nucleus was blocked, probably as a result of formation of a complex with mu1/mu1C which was exclusively in the cytoplasm. Mutant analyses indicated a correlation between dsRNA-binding activity and nuclear entry of sigma3, suggesting an additional role(s) for this capsid protein in virus-cell interactions.
