Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), as a chronic and recurrent inflammatory disorder, is caused by a dysregulated and aberrant immune response to exposed environmental factors in genetically susceptible individuals. Despite huge efforts in determining the molecular pathogenesis of IBD, an increasing worldwide incidence of IBD has been reported. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a set of noncoding RNA molecules that are about 22 nucleotides long, and these molecules are involved in the regulation of the gene expression. By clarifying the important role of miRNAs in a number of diseases, their role was also considered in IBD; numerous studies have been performed on this topic. In this review, we attempt to summarize a number of studies and discuss some of the recent developments in the roles of miRNAs in the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of IBD. 相似文献

Neutral weak halothiophene benzimidazole inhibitors of the serine protease factor Xa were identified via screening of a compound library. The X-ray crystal structure of representative 3a bound to human fXa confirmed the S1 binding mode. Starting from 3a a series of halothiophene benzimidazoles was synthesized and investigated for their factor Xa inhibitory activity. This led to potent and selective achiral inhibitors against fXa such as compounds 9k and 9w. 相似文献

The immune responses of individuals exposed to Leishmania major were evaluated and compared with those of non-exposed volunteers. Forty-one patients with active lesion(s), 43 healed individuals, 15 vaccinees 1 month or 1 year post vaccination, and 15 non-exposed volunteers were studied. Leishmanin skin test (LST) response, proliferative response of lymphocyte (PRL) to L. major antigen, IFN-gamma and IL-4 production, and percentage of L. major-specific CD4+, CD8+ and CD16+/CD56+ cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cells were assessed. Data showed positive LST (>5 mm) in 92% of patients, 98% of healed, and 80% or 43% of vaccinees 1 month and 1 year post vaccination, respectively. Positive PRL (SI>2.5) was displayed in 90%, 84%, 46% and 7% of patients, healed, vaccinated (post 1 year) and non-exposed donors, respectively. The mean +/-S.E. of IFN-gamma was 924 +/- 149, 1,278 +/- 185, 470 +/- 282 or 258 +/- 82 pg/ml in patients, healed cases and vaccinees after 1 month or 1 year, respectively. Positive IFN-gamma responders (>300 pg/ml) were shown in 72% of patients, 81% of healed cases, 31% or 39% of vaccinees and 0% of non-exposed donors. A reduced percentage of CD4+ T-cells and an increased percentage of NK cells were found in exposed individuals compared to non-exposed donors. The data indicated that exposure to L. major modulates the proportion of CD4+ T cells and increases NK cells percentage. However, the cellular immune responses including induction of LST, and IFN-gamma production are increased in exposed individuals. 相似文献

Reduction of spontaneous metastases through induction of carbohydrate cross-reactive apoptotic antibodies 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Monzavi-Karbassi B Artaud C Jousheghany F Hennings L Carcel-Trullols J Shaaf S Korourian S Kieber-Emmons T 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2005,174(11):7057-7065
The selective targeting of tumor-associated carbohydrate Ags by the induction of serum Abs that trigger apoptosis of tumor cells as a means to reduce circulating tumor cells and micrometastases would be an advantage in cancer vaccine development. Some plant lectins like Griffonia simplicifolia lectin I and wheat germ agglutinin mediate the apoptosis of tumor cells. We investigated the possibility of using these lectins as templates to select peptide mimotopes of tumor-associated carbohydrate Ags as immunogens to generate cross-reactive Abs capable of mediating apoptosis of tumor cells. In this study, we show that immunization with a mimotope selected based on its reactivity with Griffonia simplicifolia lectin I and wheat germ agglutinin induced serum IgM Abs in mice that mediated the apoptosis of murine 4T1 and human MCF7 cell lines in vitro, paralleling the apoptotic activity of the lectins. Vaccine-induced anti-carbohydrate Abs reduced the outgrowth of micrometastases in the 4T1 spontaneous tumor model, significantly increasing survival time of tumor-bearing animals. This finding parallels suggestions that carbohydrate-reactive IgM with apoptotic activity may have merit in the adjuvant setting if the right carbohydrate-associated targets are identified. 相似文献

3, 5, 6-Trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP) is a stable metabolite of two major pesticides, Chlopyrifos insecticide and Triclopyr herbicide, which are widely used in the world. The potential health hazard associated with TCP is identified due to its high affinity to the DNA molecule. Therefore, in this study, the interaction of native calf thymus DNA with TCP has been investigated using spectrophotometric, circular dichroism (CD), spectrofluorometric, viscometric and voltametric techniques. It was found that TCP molecules could interact with DNA via a groove-binding mode, as evidenced by hyperchromism, with no red shift in the UV absorption band of TCP, no changes in K(b) values in the presence of salt, no significant changes in the specific viscosity and CD spectra of DNA, and a decrease in peak currents with no shift in the voltamogram. In addition, TCP is able to release Hoechst 33258, a strong groove binder, in the DNA solutions. The results are indicative of the groove-binding mode of TCP to DNA. 相似文献

Whole-genome duplications (WGDs) and chromosome rearrangements (CRs) play the key role in driving the diversification and evolution of plant lineages. Although the direct link between WGDs and plant diversification is well documented, relatively few studies focus on the evolutionary significance of CRs. The cruciferous tribe Thlaspideae represents an ideal model system to address the role of large-scale chromosome alterations in genome evolution, as most Thlaspideae species share the same diploid chromosome number (2n = 2x = 14). Here we constructed the genome structure in 12 Thlaspideae species, including field pennycress (Thlaspi arvense) and garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata). We detected and precisely characterized genus- and species-specific CRs, mostly pericentric inversions, as the main genome-diversifying drivers in the tribe. We reconstructed the structure of seven chromosomes of an ancestral Thlaspideae genome, identified evolutionary stable chromosomes versus chromosomes prone to CRs, estimated the rate of CRs, and uncovered an allohexaploid origin of garlic mustard from diploid taxa closely related to A. petiolata and Parlatoria cakiloidea. Furthermore, we performed detailed bioinformatic analysis of the Thlaspideae repeatomes, and identified repetitive elements applicable as unique species- and genus-specific barcodes and chromosome landmarks. This study deepens our general understanding of the evolutionary role of CRs, particularly pericentric inversions, in plant genome diversification, and provides a robust base for follow-up whole-genome sequencing efforts. 相似文献

Low temperature during the reproductive stage causes sterility of pollen grains and reduces yield. Phenolic compounds function as stress indicators because they accumulate to high levels in many plant tissues in response to a wide range of biotic and abiotic signals. Branches with unopened flowers were collected from trees of three Citrus species (C. reticulata, C. sinensis and C. paradisi) and exposed to different temperatures (5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 °C) for six hours. The highest amount of polyphenol and flavonoids was observed at 5 °C and then their content reduced with increasing temperature in all species. Total phenols and flavonoids content in control temperature as well as all treatments showed that C. paradisi has lower amounts of these compounds than the two other species. HPLC analysis demonstrated that low temperatures, particularly 5 °C, induce flavonoids accumulation as both peak number and flavonoid levels for retention times in pollen grains of all species. The comparison of the HPLC patterns of the three species showed that flavonoid extracts in pollen of C. paradisi decrease in peak number and flavonoids levels for retention times in both control and treatments. Citrus reticulata showed an increase of eight- and two-fold in peaks of one and four, respectively, at 5 °C. Peaks of one and six in C. sinensis increased about four- and three-fold, respectively, at 5 °C compared to the control. In C. paradisi, the levels of peaks two to four were near to the baseline in control samples. With temperature reduction, peak two showed no significant increase but the levels of peaks one, three and four in samples exposed to 5 °C increased approximately three-, three- and four-fold, respectively. ? 相似文献
