The potential of angiogenin (Ang) for clinical use has been highlighted in view of its important roles in inducing angiogenesis, facilitating cell proliferation, and inhibiting cell apoptosis. To produce soluble, correctly folded recombinant protein with a high yield, a DNA fragment encoding human Ang was inserted into eukaryotic expression vector pPIC9 and transformed into Pichia pastoris. The expression of recombinant human Ang (rhAng) accounted for about 70% of total secreted proteins. Purifying the Ang from the culture supernatant yielded 30 mg/L at 90% purity by chromatography with a SP Sepharose FF column. Biological assays indicated that rhAng can induce new blood-vessel formation, promote HeLa cell proliferation, increase Erk1/2 phosphorylation, and upregulate c-myc expression. Preparation of bioactive rhAng might lay the basis for further functional study, and might provide an effective strategy for large-scale production of soluble human Ang. 相似文献

Angiopoietin-2 (Ang2) is a complex regulator of vascular remodeling that plays a role in both blood vessel sprouting and blood vessel regression through its receptor Tie2. Recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (rCHO) cell lines expressing a high level (20 microg/mL) of recombinant human Ang2 protein (rhAng2) with an amino-terminal FLAG-tag was constructed by transfecting the expression vectors into dihydrofolate reductase (dhfr)-deficient CHO cells and the subsequent gene amplification in medium containing stepwise increments in methotrexate level such as 0.02, 0.08, and 0.32 microM. The rhAng2 secreted from rCHO cells was purified at a purification yield of 53.6% from the cultured medium using an anti-FLAG M2 agarose affinity gel. SDS-PAGE and Western blot analyses showed that rCHO cells secret rhAng2 as a homodimeric glycoprotein form. Furthermore, rhAng2 binds to the Tie2 receptor and phosphorylates Tie2 in a concentration-dependent manner. Therefore, our rhAng2 could be useful for clarifying biological effect of exogenous Ang2 in the future. 相似文献

Angiopoietin-1 (Ang1) is an essential molecule for blood vessel formation. In an effort to produce large quantities of Ang1,
recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (rCHO) cells expressing a high level of recombinant human Ang1 protein (rhAng1) with an
amino terminal FLAG-tag were constructed by transfecting the expression vector into dihydrofolate reductase-deficient CHO
cells and subsequent gene amplification in a medium containing step-wise increments of methotrexate, such as 0.02, 0.08, and
0.32 μM. The rhAng1 secreted from rCHO cells was purified at a purification yield of 18.4% from the cultured medium using
an anti-FLAG M2 agarose affinity gel. SDS-PAGE and Western blot analyses showed that rCHO cells secret rhAng1 as heterogeneous
multimers. Moreover, rhAng1 expressed in rCHO cells is biologically active in vitro as demonstrated by its ability to bind
to the Tie2 receptor and to phosphorylate Tie2. Therefore, the rhAng1 produced from CHO cells could be useful for clarifying
the biological effects of exogenous rhAng1 in the future. 相似文献

Angiopoietin-2 (Ang2) is a member of the Ang family. Its potential in clinical use has been highlighted for its important roles in angiogenesis during the individual development and the growth of tumors. Ang2 is difficult to be expressed in E. coli for its unique structure. The expressions of Ang2 in insect cells (Sf9) and Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line have been reported, however, the large-scale production of Ang2 for application is still pendent. In this study, the expression of Ang2 in Pichia pastoris expression system was described for the first time. The cDNA encoding Ang2 was cloned from the rat vascular tissue by RT-PCR, and inserted in the eukaryotic expression vector pPIZαA, and then transformed into P. pastoris KM71H cells. The expression of recombinant rat Ang2 (rrAng2) was induced by methanol and accounted for about 75% of the total secreted proteins. The recombinant protein was subsequently purified by HisTrap FF crude with a purity of 90%. Functional analysis of the purified rrAng2 demonstrated a specific activity in promoting the survival of ECV304 cells and binding to the Tie2 receptor. Preparation of bioactive rrAng2 not only lays the basis for further functional study but also provides a new strategy for soluble and large-scale production of human Ang2. 相似文献

Four and a half LIM domain protein 3 (FHL3) is a member of the family of LIM proteins and is involved in myogenesis, cytoskeleton
reconstruction, cell growth and differentiation. The full-length FHL3 cDNA was cloned from human spleen cDNA library and inserted
in a prokaryotic expression vector pBV220 and then the recombinant plasmid was transformed into E. coli JM109. The expression of the recombinant protein was induced at 42°C. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that recombinant human FHL3
(rhFHL3) was mainly expressed as an inclusion body. After purification by HisTrap FF crude, the rhFHL3 was renatured by dialysis
against renaturing buffer and identified by Western blot analysis using human FHL3 polyclonal antibody. The MTT assay showed
that the purified rhFHL3 could inhibit HepG2 cell growth but promote the proliferation of ECV304 cells. In addition, the expression
of angiogenin (Ang) gene was increased when ECV304 cells were pretreated with rhFHL3. 相似文献

Endostatin, a 20 kDa C-terminal fragment of collagen XVIII, is a specific inhibitor of endothelial cell proliferation and
angiogenesis. In the present study, we produced soluble and biologically active recombinant human endostatin (rhEndostatin)
in Escherichia coli by expressing via fusion with solubility-promoting peptides and optimizing the expression conditions. The rhEndostatin was expressed via fusion with glutathione S-transferase (GST) and NusA protein, respectively. It revealed that NusA protein enhanced the production
of soluble rhEndostatin; but GST didn’t. By optimizing the expression conditions, the production of soluble NusA-rhEndostatin
fusion protein was about 50% of total cellular proteins and about 90% of the products appeared in the cellular supernatant
fraction. The soluble NusA-rhEndostatin fusion protein was purified by one-step hydrophobic interaction chromatography and
NusA was removed by thrombin. Then rhEndostatin was purified by affinity chromatography and gel filtration chromatography.
As a result, a simple and economical purification procedure for rhEndostatin isolation was obtained. The biological activity
of the rhEndostatin was demonstrated in vitro using a human vascular endothelial cells (HuVECs) proliferation assay. Our study provides a feasible and convenient approach
to produce soluble and biologically active rhEndostatin. 相似文献

Angiogenin (Ang) is known to induce cell proliferation and inhibit apoptosis by cellular signaling pathways and its direct nuclear functions, but the mechanism of action for Ang in astrocytoma is not yet clear. Astrocytoma is the most frequent one among various neurogliomas, of which a subtype known as glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most malignant brain glioma and seriously influences the life quality of the patients. The expression of Ang and Bcl-xL were detected in 28 cases of various grades of astrocytoma and 6 cases of normal human tissues by quantitative real-time PCR. The results showed that the expression of Ang and Bcl-xL positively correlated with the malignant grades. Cytological experiments indicated that Ang facilitated human glioblastoma U87MG cell proliferation and knock-down of endogenous Ang promoted cell apoptosis. Furthermore, Ang activated NF-κB pathway and entered the U87MG cell nuclei, and blocking NF-κB pathway or inhibiting Ang nuclear translocation partially suppressed Ang-induced cell proliferation. The results suggested that Ang participated in the regulation of evolution process of astrocytoma by interfering NF-κB pathway and its nucleus function. In addition, four and a half LIM domains 3 (FHL3), a novel Ang binding partner, was required for Ang-mediated HeLa cell proliferation in our previous study. We also found that knockdown of FHL3 enhanced IκBα phosphorylation and overexpression of Ang inhibited FHL3 expression in U87MG cells. Together our findings suggested that Ang could activate NF-κB pathway by regulating the expression of FHL3. In conclusion, the present study established a link between Ang and FHL3 proteins and identifies a new pathway for regulating astrocytoma progression. 相似文献

To improve the accumulation of recombinant human epidermal growth factor (hEGF) in transgenic tobacco, a highly effective
vector was constructed and transformed via Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The hEGF content in transgenic tobacco was up to 0.3% of the total soluble protein. Using the Vero E6 cell expansion assay
and the MTT method for cell proliferation, hEGF produced by transgenic tobacco significantly stimulated Vero E6 cell expansion
and proliferation, the same as commercial hEGF products. 相似文献

Single chain Fv antibody against angiopoietin-2 inhibits VEGF-induced endothelial cell proliferation and migration in vitro 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Angiopoietin-2 (Ang2) promotes tumor growth and metastasis by specifically priming endothelial cells for angiogenesis. Multiple angiogenic factors up-regulate expression of Ang2, suggesting that Ang2 may be the common pathway in growth factor initiated-angiogenesis. Using phage display technology, we generated single chain Fv molecule against human Ang2 (scFv-Ang2) with high affinity (K(d)=0.01 microM) from a mouse phage antibody library. Compared with control scFv, the mouse scFv-Ang2 completely inhibited the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) treated with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF, 10 ng/ml), but not that of the cells treated with either basic fibroblast growth factor, or angiotensin II, or Ang2. Chemotaxis assay showed that scFv-Ang2 could block completely Ang2-induced (100%) and partially VEGF-induced (49%) migration of HUVECs. The results indicate that Ang2 takes part in the VEGF-induced angiogenesis and scFv-Ang2 might be a promising compound in blocking both VEGF and Ang2 induced angiogenesis. 相似文献

Krüppel-like factor (KLF) 5, which initiates vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation, also participates in Angiotensin (Ang) II-induced vascular remodeling. The protective effect of rosiglitazone on vascular remodeling may be due to their impact on VSMC proliferation. However, the underlying mechanisms involved remain unclear. This study was designed to investigate whether the antiproliferation effects of rosiglitazone are mediated by regulating Ang II/KLF5 response. We found that, in aortas of Ang II-infused rats, vascular remodeling and KLF5 expression were markedly increased, and its target gene cyclin D1 was overexpressed. Co-treatment with rosiglitazone diminished these changes. In growth-arrested VSMCs, PPAR-γ agonists (rosiglitazone and 15d-PGJ2) dose-dependently inhibited Ang II-induced cell proliferation and expression of KLF5 and cyclin D1. Moreover, these effects were attenuated by the PPAR-γ antagonists GW9662, bisphenol A diglycidyl ether and PPAR-γ specific siRNA. Furthermore, rosiglitazone inhibited Ang II-induced phosphorylation of protein kinase C (PKC) ζ and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 and activation of early growth response protein (Egr). In conclusion, in Ang II-stimulated VSMCs, rosiglitazone might have an antiproliferative effect through mechanisms that include reducing KLF5 expression, and a crosstalk between PPAR-γ and PKCζ/ERK1/2/Egr may be involved in. These findings not only provide a previously unrecognized mechanism by which PPAR-γ agonists inhibit VSMC proliferation, but also document a novel evidence for the beneficial vascular effect of PPAR-γ activation. 相似文献

Production of bioactive human hemangiopoietin in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Escherichia coli</Emphasis>
To devise an efficient approach for production of human hemangiopoietin (hHAPO), the gene of hHAPO was synthesized and subcloned
into the pSUMO vector with a SUMO tag at the N-terminus. The expression construct was then transformed into the expression
strain E. coli BL21(DE3). The fusion protein was expressed in soluble form and identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. The fusion protein
was purified to 90% purity by metal chelate chromatography with a yield of 45 mg per liter fermentation culture. The SUMO
tag was removed by cleavage with SUMO protease at room temperature for 1 h, and the hHAPO was then re-purified by the metal
chelate chromatography. Finally, about 21 mg hHAPO was obtained from 1 liter of fermentation culture with no less than 95%
purity. The recombinant hHAPO significantly stimulated the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells. 相似文献

血管平滑肌细胞增殖与Cdk抑制蛋白p27的表达 总被引:4,自引:1,他引:4
p27蛋白是细胞周期素依赖性激酶(Cdk)抑制蛋白家族中的一种,主要对外部促进或抑制细胞增殖的信号起反应。本研究应用流式细胞仪(FCM)双标记的方法观察血管紧张素Ⅱ(AngⅡ)、血管加压素(AVP)和血小板源生长因子(PDGF)对血管平滑肌细胞(VSMCs)细胞周期百分比和p27蛋白表达量的影响。静止状态培养的VSMCs加入AngⅡ,AVP,PDGFBB后,在不同时间收集细胞,用碘化丙啶(PI)标记细胞DNA,以确定细胞所处的周期。用p27蛋白的单抗和标记了FITC的二抗标记细胞,通过流式细胞仪测定被激发出的荧光量来确定细胞p27蛋白表达的相对量。结果显示,AngⅡ刺激VSMCs增生,其蛋白含量增加了436%(P<001),但不抑制p27蛋白的表达;AVP可轻度抑制p27的表达,有轻度促进VSMCs增殖和增生的作用(P<005);PDGF明显抑制p27的表达,引起细胞增殖。本研究结果提示,p27蛋白抑制VSMCs通过G1期进入S期,是抑制VSMCs增殖的重要调节因子。 相似文献

The Angiopoietin-2 (Ang2, Angpt2) growth factor is a context-dependent antagonist/agonist ligand of the endothelial Tie2 receptor tyrosine kinase and known to promote tumour angiogenesis and metastasis. Angiopoietin antagonists have been tested in clinical cancer trials in combination with VEGF-based anti-angiogenic therapy, including sunitinib, which is widely used as a first-line therapy for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). However, little is known about Ang2 protein expression in human tumours and the correlation of tumour Ang2 expression with tumour vascularization, tumour cell proliferation and response to anti-angiogenic therapies. Here, we evaluated, using immunohistochemistry, the expression of Ang2, CD31 and the cell proliferation marker Ki-67 in the primary kidney cancer from 136 mRCC patients, who received first-line sunitinib after nephrectomy. Ang2 protein expression was restrained to RCC tumour vessels, and correlated with tumour vascularization and response to sunitinib. High pre-therapeutic Ang2 expression, and more strongly, combined high expression of both Ang2 and CD31, were associated with a high clinical benefit rate (CBR). Low cancer Ki-67 expression, but not Ang2 or CD31 expression, was associated with favourable progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) as compared to patients with high Ki-67 expression (PFS 6.5 vs. 10.6 months, P = 0.009; OS, 15.7 vs. 28.5 months, P = 0.015). In summary, in this study to investigate endothelial Ang2 in mRCC patients treated with first-line sunitinib, high cancer Ang2 expression was associated with the CBR, but not PFS or OS, whereas low Ki-67 expression was significantly associated with long PFS and OS. 相似文献

Antibodies currently constitute the most rapidly growing class of human therapeutics; however, the high-yield production of
recombinant antibodies and antibody fragments is a real challenge. High expression of active single-chain antibody fragment
(scFv) in Escherichia coli has not been successful, as the protein contains three intramolecular disulfide bonds that are difficult to form correctly
in the bacterial intracellular environment. To solve this problem, we fused the scFv gene against VEGF165 with a small ubiquitin-related
modifier gene (SUMO) by synthesizing an artificial SUMO–scFv fusion gene that was highly expressed in the BL21(DE3) strain.
The optimal expression level of the soluble fusion protein, SUMO–scFv, was up to 28.5% of the total cellular protein. The
fusion protein was purified by Ni nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) affinity chromatography and cleaved by a SUMO-specific protease
to obtain the native scFv, which was further purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. The result of the high-performance
liquid chromatography showed that the purity of the recombinant cleaved scFv was greater than 98%. The primary structure of
the purified scFv was confirmed by N-terminal amino acid sequencing and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight
mass spectroscopy analysis. In vitro activity assay demonstrated that the recombinant scFv could dose-dependently inhibit
VEGF165-induced human umbilical vein-derived endothelial cell proliferation. The expression strategy presented in this study
allows convenient high yield and easy purification of recombinant scFv with native sequences. 相似文献

cDNA of human fibroblast growth factor 8 isoform b (FGF8b) was cloned for the first time into a plant expression vector with
or without endoplasmic reticulum retention signal (KDEL) and was transiently expressed as His tagged fusion protein in Nicotiana tabacum leaves through Agrobacterium mediated gene transfer by vacuum infiltration method. Expression of FGF8b was confirmed by ELISA and Western blot using anti-FGF8b
antibody and the expression level was measured as 4.1% of total soluble protein of tobacco leaves. The expressed recombinant
protein was purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography and its molecular weight was determined by MALDI-TOF-MS. Schiff’s test,
Concanavalin A (Con A) immunoblot and enzymatic deglycosylation indicated that the high molecular mass was due to glycosylation
of the FGF8b expressed in plant cells. Measurement of its biological activity in NIH3T3 cells by thymidine incorporation and
MTT assay showed induction of cell proliferation. These results indicate that biologically active recombinant FGF8b could
be expressed in tobacco plants.

Summary An automatic fed-batch procedure for the production of recombinant proteins in Escherichia coli was developed. Using glycerol as carbon source and by controlling the growth rate by using feed-forward algorithm, enabled high specific expression level (10–20 % of total cell protein) at high cell densities (20 g dry wt/l) to be achieved: rat and human soluble catechol-O-methyltransferase, calf prochymosin, and human troponin C were expressed with nearly 50-fold higher volumetric yield compared to the conventional (batch) procedures. 相似文献

Domain IV nucleotides of human 7SL RNA comprise an approximately 50-nucleotide region with a highly conserved secondary structure consisting of two internal loops. We inserted these into a modified 3’-untranslated region of the human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (hGM-CSF) gene. The expression vector, under the control of a tissue-specific promoter derived from the soybean α’ subunit of β-conglycinin, was introduced intoArabidopsis thaliana byAgrohacterium-mediated transformation. Expression of the recombinant hGM-CSF significantly improved, accounting for as much as 0.049% of the total soluble protein in theArabidopsis siliques. Western blots showed that the molecular weight of this recombinant hGM-CSF was approximately 21 kD. In addition, TF-1 cell proliferation data demonstrated that the recombinant hGM-CSF was biologically active. Our results provide evidence that aptamers can strongly enhance gene expression. 相似文献
