Escherichia coli is frequently exploited for genetic manipulations and heterologous gene expression studies. We have evaluated the metabolic profile of E. coli strain BL21 (DE3) RIL CodonPlus after genetic modifications and subjecting to the production of recombinant protein. Three genetically variable E. coli cell types were studied, normal cells (susceptible to antibiotics) cultured in simple LB medium, cells harboring ampicillin-resistant plasmid pET21a (+), grown under antibiotic stress, and cells having recombinant plasmid pET21a (+) ligated with bacterial lactate dehydrogenase gene grown under ampicillin and standard isopropyl thiogalactoside (IPTG)-induced gene expression conditions. A total of 592 metabolites were identified through liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry analysis, feature and peak detection using XCMS and CAMERA followed by precursor identification by METLIN-based procedures. Overall, 107 metabolites were found differentially regulated among genetically modified cells. Quantitative analysis has shown a significant modulation in DHNA-CoA, p-aminobenzoic acid, and citrulline levels, indicating an alteration in vitamin K, folic acid biosynthesis, and urea cycle of E. coli cells during heterologous gene expression. Modulations in energy metabolites including NADH, AMP, ADP, ATP, carbohydrate, terpenoids, fatty acid metabolites, diadenosine tetraphosphate (Ap4A), and l -carnitine advocate major metabolic rearrangements. Our study provides a broader insight into the metabolic adaptations of bacterial cells during gene manipulation experiments that can be prolonged to improve the yield of heterologous gene products and concomitant production of valuable biomolecules. 相似文献

The mitochondrial matrix can be specifically labeled by loading cells with calcein and simultaneous quenching of the non-mitochondrial calcein fluorescence with cobalt (Co2+). Positive staining of mitochondria thus requires that the inner mitochondrial membrane functions as a barrier separating calcein (within the matrix) from Co2+ (outside of the matrix). Upon induction of apoptosis, such calcein/Co2+-labeled cells, demonstrate a decrease in the overall calcein fluorescence resulting from inner mitochondrial membrane permeabilization. This decrease can be quantified by cytofluorometry and can be dissociated from other apoptosis-associated mitochondrial perturbations such as the loss of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential (
m
), the local overproduction of reactive oxygen species, and the mitochondrial release of cytochrome c. In some paradigms of apoptosis the loss of calcein/Co2+ (CC) staining can be dissociated from the
m
loss, both of which may occur in a caspase-dependent or caspase-independent fashion, depending on the apoptosis inducer. Importantly, inner membrane permeabilization to CC may occur without a permanent
m
dissipation in apoptosis, suggesting that transient permeabilization events could participate at the apoptotic cascade. Altogether, our data demonstrate that inner mitochondrial membrane permeabilization constitutes an early event in the apoptotic cascade. 相似文献

Pharmacological targeting of inflammation through STAT3 and NF-κB signaling pathways is, among other inflammatory biomarkers, associated with cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibition and is believed to play a crucial role in prevention and therapy of cancer. Recently, inflammatory factors were found to impact on mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) contribution to tumor angiogenesis. Given MSC chemotaxis and cell survival are regulated, in part, by the membrane type-1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP), an MMP also involved in transducing NF-κB intracellular signaling pathways, we tested whether STAT3 regulation by MT1-MMP may also contribute to the expression balance of COX-2 in MSC. We demonstrate that STAT3 phosphorylation was triggered in MSC treated with the MT1-MMP inducer lectin Concanavalin-A (ConA), and that this phosphorylation was abrogated by the JAK2 inhibitor AG490. MT1-MMP gene silencing significantly inhibited ConA-induced STAT3 phosphorylation and this was correlated with reduced proMMP-2 activation and COX-2 expression. On the other hand, STAT3 gene silencing potentiated ConA-induced COX-2 expression, providing evidence for a new MT1-MMP/JAK/STAT3 signaling axis that may, in part, explain how MT1-MMP contributes to proinflammatory intracellular signaling. Given that MSC are avidly recruited within inflammatory microenvironments and within experimental vascularizing tumors, these mechanistic observations support a possible dual control of cell adaptation to inflammation by MT1-MMP and that may enable MSC to be active participants within inflamed tissues. 相似文献

As shown here, mitochondria purified from different organs (liver, brain, kidney, spleen and heart) contain both pro-caspase-9 and the processed, mature form of caspase-9. Purified liver mitochondria release mature caspase-9 upon induction of permeability transition in vitro. This is accompanied by a discrete increase in the enzymatic cleavage of pro-caspase-9 substrates. We found that SHEP neuroblastoma cells constitutively contain pre-processed caspase-9 in their mitochondria, using a combination of subcellular fractionation and immunofluorescence with an antibody specific for the processed caspase. This is a cell type-specific phenomenon since HeLa cells mitochondria mainly contain pro-caspase-9 and comparatively little processed caspase-9. Upon introduction of apoptosis, mitochondrial pro-caspase-9 translocates to the cytosol and to the nucleus. This phenomenon is inhibited by transfection with Bcl-2. In synthesis, we report the unexpected finding that mitochondria can contain a pre-processed caspase isoform in non-apoptotic cells. Bcl-2-mediated regulation of mitochondrial membrane permeabilization may contribute to apoptosis control by preventing mitochondrial, pre-processed caspase-9 from interacting with its cytosolic activators. 相似文献

Dominant cell death induction by extramitochondrially targeted apoptosis-inducing factor. 总被引:24,自引:0,他引:24

The complete AIF cDNA comprising the amino-terminal mitochondrial localization sequence (MLS) and the oxidoreductase domain has been fused in its carboxyl terminus to enhanced green fluorescent protein (GFP), thereby engineering an AIF-GFP fusion protein that is selectively targeted to the mitochondrial intermembrane space. Upon induction of apoptosis, the AIF-GFP protein translocates together with cytochrome c (Cyt-c) to the extramitochondrial compartment. Microinjection of recombinant AIF leads to the release of AIF-GFP and Cyt-c-GFP, indicating that ectopic AIF can favor permeabilization of the outer mitochondrial membrane. These mitochondrial effects of AIF are caspase independent, whereas the Cyt-c-microinjection induced translocation of AIF-GFP and Cyt-c-GFP is suppressed by the pan-caspase inhibitor Z-VAD.fmk. Upon prolonged culture, transfection-enforced overexpression of AIF results in spontaneous translocation of AIF-GFP from mitochondria, nuclear chromatin condensation, and cell death. These effects are caspase independent and do not rely on the oxidoreductase function of AIF. Spontaneous AIF-GFP translocation and subsequent nuclear apoptosis can be retarded by overexpression of a Bcl-2 protein selectively targeted to mitochondria, but not by a Bcl-2 protein targeted to the endoplasmic reticulum. Overexpression of a mutant AIF protein in which the MLS has been deleted (AIF Delta 1-100) results in the primary cytosolic accumulation of AIF. AIF Delta 1-100-induced cell death is suppressed by neither Z-VAD.fmk or by Bcl-2. Thus, extramitochondrially targeted AIF is a dominant cell death inducer. 相似文献

The mitochondrial genome of animals encodes a few subcomponents of the respiratory chain complexes I, III and IV, whereas
nuclear DNA encodes the overwhelming majority, both in quantitative and qualitative terms, of mitochondrial proteins. Complete
depletion of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can be achieved by culturing cells in the presence of inhibitors of mtDNA replication
or mitochondrial protein synthesis, giving rise to mutant cells (ϱ∘ cells) which carry morphological near-to-intact mitochondria
with respiratory defects. Such cells can be used to study the impact of mitochondrial respiration on apoptosis. ϱ∘ cells do
not undergo cell death in response to determined stimuli, yet they conserve their potential to undergo full-blown apoptosis
in many experimental systems. This indicates that mtDNA and associated functions (in particular mitochondrial respiration)
are irrelevant to apoptosis execution. However, the finding that mtDNA-deficient mitochondria can undergo apoptosis does not
argue against the involvement of mitochondria in the apoptotic process, since mitochondria from ϱ∘ cells conserve most of
their functions including those involved in the execution of the death programme: permeability transition and release of one
or several intermembrane proteins causing nuclear apoptosis.

Implication of mitochondria in apoptosis 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17

The induction phase of programmed cell death (PCD) or apoptosis is characterized by an extreme heterogeneity of potential PCD-triggering signal transduction pathways. During the subsequent effector phase, the numerous PCD-inducing stimuli converge into a few stereotypical pathways and cells pass a 'point of no return', thus becoming irreversibly committed to death. Evidence is accumulating that cytoplasmic structures, including mitochondria, participate in the critical effector stage and that alterations usually considered to define apoptosis, as nuclear chromatolysis and cytolysis, have to be ascribed to the late degradation phase. We and others have recently shown that nuclear features of apoptosis are preceded by alterations in mitochondrial function and structure. The importance of these alterations for the apoptotic process and also the possible link between, these observations, the permeability transition pore and the programmed cell death, are dicussed.

One critical step of apoptosis is the release of mitochondrial proteins through the outer mitochondrial membrane. Recent work shows that two pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins, Bax and Bid, as well as the mitochondrion-specific lipid cardiolipin may cooperate in chemically defined liposomes to generate a protein-permeable conduit, relaunching the debate on the identity of the pore responsible for mitochondrial membrane permeabilization during apoptosis. 相似文献
