SLD5 forms a GINS complex with PSF1, PSF2 and PSF3, which is essential for the initiation of DNA replication in lower eukaryotes. Although these components are conserved in mammals, their biological function is unclear. We show here that targeted disruption of SLD5 in mice causes a defect in cell proliferation in the inner cell mass, resulting in embryonic lethality at the peri-implantation stage, indicating that SLD5 is essential for embryogenesis. Moreover, this phenotype of SLD5 mutant mice is quite similar compared with that of PSF1 mutant mice. We have previously reported that haploinsufficiency of PSF1 resulted in failure of acute proliferation of bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) during reconstitution of bone marrow ablated by 5-FU treatment. Since SLD5 was highly expressed in bone marrow, we investigated its involvement in bone marrow reconstitution after bone marrow ablation as observed in PSF1 heterozygous mutant mice. However, heterozygous deletion of the SLD5 gene was found not to significantly affect bone marrow reconstitution. On the other hand, abundant SLD5 expression was observed in human cancer cell lines and heterozygous deletion of the gene attenuated tumor progression in a murine model of spontaneous gastric cancer. These indicated that requirement and dependency of SLD5 for cell proliferation is different in different cell types. 相似文献

SLD5 is a member of the GINS complex composed of PSF1, PSF2, PSF3 and SLD5, playing a critical role in the formation of the DNA replication fork with CDC45 in yeast. Previously, we had isolated a PSF1 orthologue from a murine hematopoietic stem cell DNA library and were then able to identify orthologues of all the other GINS members by the yeast two hybrid approach using PSF1 as the bait. These GINS orthologues may also function in DNA replication in mammalian cells because they form tetrameric complexes as observed in yeast, and gene deletion mutants of both PSF1 and SLD5 result in a lack of epiblast proliferation and early embryonic lethality. However, we found that PSF1 is also involved in chromosomal segregation in M phase, consistent with recent suggestions that homologues of genes associated with DNA replication in lower organisms also regulate cellular events other than DNA replication in mammalian cells. Here we analyzed the function of SLD5 other than DNA replication and found that it is active in DNA damage and repair. Attenuation of SLD5 expression results in marked DNA damage in both normal cells and cancer cells, suggesting that it protects against DNA damage. Attenuation of SLD5 delays the DNA repair response and cell cycle restoration in normal cells but not in cancer cells. These findings suggest that SLD5 might represent a therapeutic target molecule acting at the level of tumor stromal cells rather than the cancerous cells themselves, because development of the tumor microenvironment could be delayed or disrupted by the suppression of its expression in the normal cell types within the tumor. 相似文献

PSF3 (partner of Sld five 3) is a member of the tetrameric complex termed GINS, composed of SLD5, PSF1, PSF2, and PSF3, and well-conserved evolutionarily. Previous studies suggested that some GINS complex members are upregulated in cancer, but PSF3 expression in colon carcinoma has not been investigated. Here, we established a mouse anti-PSF3 antibody, and examined PSF3 expression in human colon carcinoma cell lines and colon carcinoma specimens. We found that PSF3 is expressed in the crypt region in normal colonic mucosa and that many PSF3-positive cells co-expressed Ki-67. This suggests that PSF3-positivity of normal mucosa is associated with cell proliferation. Expression of the PSF3 protein was greater in carcinoma compared with the adjacent normal mucosa, and even stronger in high-grade malignancies, suggesting that it may be associated with colon cancer progression. PSF3 gene knock-down in human colon carcinoma cell lines resulted in growth inhibition characterized by delayed S-phase progression. These results suggest that PSF3 is a potential biomarker for diagnosis of progression in colon cancer and could be a new target for cancer therapy. 相似文献

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) is a nuclear receptor that plays an essential role in cell proliferation, apoptosis, and inflammation. It is over-expressed in many types of cancer, including colon, stomach, breast, and lung cancer, suggesting that regulation of PPARγ might affect cancer pathogenesis. Here, using a proteomic approach, we identify PTB-associated splicing factor (PSF) as a novel PPARγ-interacting protein and demonstrate that PSF is involved in several important regulatory steps of colon cancer cell proliferation. To investigate the relationship between PSF and PPARγ in colon cancer, we evaluated the effects of PSF expression in DLD-1 and HT-29 colon cancer cell lines, which express low and high levels of PPARγ, respectively PSF affected the ability of PPARγ to bind, and expression of PSF siRNA significantly suppressed the proliferation of colon cancer cells. Furthermore, PSF knockdown induced apoptosis via activation of caspase-3. Interestingly, DLD-1 cells were more susceptible to PSF knockdown-induced cell death than HT-29 cells. Our data suggest that PSF is an important regulator of cell death that plays critical roles in the survival and growth of colon cancer cells. The PSF-PPARγ axis may play a role in the control of colorectal carcinogenesis. Taken together, this study is the first to describe the effects of PSF on cell proliferation, tumor growth, and cell signaling associated with PPARγ. 相似文献

Influenza virus matrix 1 protein (M1) is highly conserved and plays essential roles at many stages of virus life cycle. Here, we used a yeast two‐hybrid system to identify the host protein SLD5, a component of the GINS complex, which is essential for the initiation of DNA replication in eukaryotic cells, as a new M1 interacting protein. M1 from several different influenza virus strains all interacted with SLD5. Overexpression of SLD5 suppressed influenza virus replication. Transient, stable, or inducible expression of M1 induced host cell cycle blockade at G0/G1 phase. Moreover, SLD5 partially rescued M1 expression‐ or influenza virus infection‐induced G0/G1 phase accumulation in cell lines and primary mouse embryonic fibroblasts. Importantly, SLD5 transgenic mice exhibited higher resistance and improved lung epithelial regeneration after virus infection compared with wild‐type mice. Therefore, influenza virus M1 blocks host cell cycle process by interacting with SLD5. Our finding reveals the multifunctional nature of M1 and provides new insight for understanding influenza virus–host interaction. 相似文献

Using a forward genetic approach and phenotype-based complementation screening to search for factors that stimulate cell proliferation, we have isolated a novel secreted bone marrow stroma-derived growth factor, which we termed SF20/IL-25. This protein signals cells to proliferate via its receptor, which we have identified as mouse thymic shared Ag-1 (TSA-1). Enforced expression of TSA-1 in IL-3-dependent Ba/F3 cells that do not express endogenous TSA-1 rendered cells to proliferate in a dose-dependent manner when stimulated with SF20/IL-25. FDCP2, a factor-dependent hemopoietic cell line that expresses endogenous TSA-1, could also be stimulated to proliferate with SF20/IL-25. Binding of SF20 to TSA-1 was blocked by anti-TSA-1 Ab and SF20-induced proliferation of TSA-1-expressing cells was inhibited by anti-TSA-1. In vitro assay revealed that SF20/IL-25 has no detectable myelopoietic activity but supports proliferation of cells in the lymphoid lineage. 相似文献

Psf1 (partner of sld five 1) forms a novel heterotetramer complex, GINS (Go, Ichi, Nii, and San; five, one, two, and three, respectively, in Japanese), with Sld5, Psf2, and Psf3. The formation of this complex is essential for the initiation of DNA replication in yeast and Xenopus laevis egg extracts. Although all of the components are well conserved in higher eukaryotes, the biological function in vivo is largely unknown. We originally cloned the mouse ortholog of PSF1 from a hematopoietic stem cell cDNA library and found that PSF1 is expressed in blastocysts, adult bone marrow, and testis, in which the stem cell system is active. Here we used the gene-targeting technique to determine the physiological function of PSF1 in vivo. Mice homozygous for a nonfunctional mutant of PSF1 died in utero around the time of implantation. PSF1-/- blastocysts failed to show outgrowth in culture and exhibited a cell proliferation defect. Our data clearly indicate that PSF1 is required for early embryogenesis. 相似文献

Previously, we have shown that a protein designated p36 is synthesized at a high rate during interleukin 2-driven proliferation of a cloned T lymphocyte, L2. Biosynthesis of p36 increases 1000-fold during the initial mid-G1 phase of the cell cycle and remains high while the cells proliferate. In this report, we show that p36 has the same migration pattern by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis as proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)/cyclin and that antiserum to PCNA/cyclin selectively immunoprecipitates p36. In addition, by indirect immunofluorescence, PCNA/cyclin accumulates in the nucleus of interleukin 2-stimulated L2 cells during proliferation and is not detectable prior to the initial S phase or after proliferation ceases. These data indicate that PCNA/cyclin expression is induced by interleukin 2 and that PCNA/cyclin accumulation is closely associated with T lymphocyte proliferation. 相似文献

CsA interferes in a specific manner with the expansion of T cell clones in that it inhibits the antigen-driven component of the proliferative responses made by cloned helper T cells, cloned conventional cytolytic T cells, and cloned helper-independent cytolytic T cells. Cloned helper T cells and helper-independent cytolytic T cells, which share the ability to proliferate when cultured with specific alloantigen, fail to proliferate when cultured with specific alloantigen, fail to proliferate in response to this stimulus in the presence of CsA (10 to 100 ng/ml). In contrast, the proliferation observed when these cells are cultured with exogenous growth factors (but not alloantigen) is little influenced by as much as 1000 ng/ml CsA. When cloned helper T cells or helper-independent cytotoxic T cells are cultured with alloantigen plus exogenous growth factor, additive or synergistic proliferation occurs. However, CsA (10 to 1000 ng/ml) blocks only the component of proliferation induced by alloantigen, and leaves the lymphokine-driven component intact. CsA has similar effects on the proliferation of cloned conventional cytolytic T cells. Thus, CsA separates cloned T cell proliferation into two components: one driven by contact with alloantigens, the other driven by contact with mitogenic lymphokines. 相似文献

BReast tumor Kinase (BRK) also known as protein kinase 6 (PTK6) is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase overexpressed in the majority of human breast carcinoma. The expression of BRK is a known prognostic marker of breast carcinoma. BRK has been shown to lie downstream of epidermal growth factor (EGF) signaling and mediate effects on cell proliferation and migration. To identify BRK substrates and interacting proteins, we undertook a proteomic approach. BRK immune complexes were purified from the BT-20 breast cancer cell line and analyzed by mass spectrometry. Herein, we report the identification of PSF, the polypyrimidine tract-binding (PTB) protein-associated splicing factor, as a BRK-interacting protein and substrate. BRK and PSF co-eluted in a large protein complex that was regulated by EGF stimulation. Furthermore, BRK and PSF co-immunoprecipitated in BT-20 cells and we defined the interaction as being an SH3 domain–polyproline interaction. The C-terminal tyrosines of PSF were the site of phosphorylation by BRK. Moreover, tyrosine phosphorylation of PSF was also observed upon EGF stimulation, consistent with a role of PSF and BRK downstream of the EGF receptor. Interestingly, the tyrosine phosphorylation promoted the cytoplasmic relocalization of PSF, impaired its binding to polypyrimidine RNA, and led to cell cycle arrest. Our findings show that BRK targets the PSF RNA-binding protein during EGF stimulation. 相似文献

Adult Leydig cells originate within the testis postnatally. Their formation is a continuous process involving gradual transformation of progenitors into the mature cell type. Despite the gradual nature of these changes, studies of proliferation, differentiation and steroidogenic function in the rat Leydig cell led to the recognition of three distinct developmental stages in the adult Leydig cell lineage: Leydig cell progenitors, immature Leydig cells and adult Leydig cells. In the first stage, Leydig cell progenitors arise from active proliferation of mesenchymal-like stem cells in the testicular interstitium during the third week of postnatal life and are recognizable by the presence of Leydig cell markers such as histochemical staining for 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3β-HSD) and the present of luteinizing hormone (LH) receptors. They proliferate actively and by day 28 postpartum differentiate into immature Leydig cells. In the second stage, immature Leydig cells are morphologically recognizable as Leydig cells. They have an abundant smooth endoplasmic reticulum and are steroidogenically active, but primarily produce 5-reduced androgens rather than testosterone. Immature Leydig cells divide only once, giving rise to the total adult Leydig cell population. In the third and final stage, adult Leydig cells are fully differentiated, primarily produce testosterone and rarely divide. LH and androgen act together to stimulate differentiation of Leydig cell progenitors into immature Leydig cells. Preliminary data indicate that insulin like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) acts subsequently in the transformation of immature Leydig cells into adult Leydig cells. 相似文献

Inflammation elicits a splenic lymphopoiesis of unknown physiologic significance but one that juxtaposes developing B cells and exogenous Ag. We show that immature and transitional 1 (immature/T1) B cells constitutively express activation-induced cytidine deaminase and B lymphocyte-induced maturation protein 1 in amounts that support accelerated plasmacytic differentiation and limited class-switch recombination. In vivo, activation of immature/T1 B cells by TLR ligands or bacterial vaccine rapidly induces T1 cells to divide, proliferate, and secrete IgM, IgG, or IgA Ab; in vitro, proliferation and differentiation are substantially enhanced by B cell-activating factor. We propose that inflammation-induced extramedullary lymphopoiesis represents a specialized mechanism for innate Ab responses to microbial pathogens. 相似文献

In this study, we describe a new population of NK cells that reside in the normal, uninflamed peritoneal cavity. Phenotypically, they share some similarities with the small population of CD49b(-), CD27(+) immature splenic NK cells, as well as liver NK cells, but they differ in their expression of CD62L, TRAIL, and EOMES. Functionally, the peritoneal NK cells resemble the immature splenic NK cells in their production of IFN-γ, GM-CSF, and TNF-α and in the killing of YAC-1 target cells. We also found that the peritoneum induces different behavior in mature and immature splenic NK cells. When transferred i.v. into RAGγc knockout mice, both populations undergo homeostatic proliferation in the spleen, but only the immature splenic NK cells are able to reach the peritoneum. When transferred directly into the peritoneum, the mature NK cells survive but do not divide, whereas the immature NK cells proliferate profusely. These data suggest that the peritoneum is not only home to a new subset of tissue-resident NK cells, but that it differentially regulates the migration and homeostatic proliferation of immature versus mature NK cells. 相似文献

The S. pombe Rad60 protein is required for the repair of DNA double strand breaks, recovery from replication arrest, and is essential for cell viability. It has two SUMO-like domains (SLDs) at its C-terminus, an SXS motif and three sequences that have been proposed to be SUMO-binding motifs (SBMs). SMB1 is located in the middle of the protein, SBM2 is in SLD1 and SBM3 is at the C-terminus of SLD2. We have probed the functions of the two SUMO-like domains, SLD1 and SLD2, and the putative SBMs. SLD1 is essential for viability, while SLD2 is not. rad60-SLD2Δ cells are sensitive to DNA damaging agents and hydroxyurea. Neither ubiquitin nor SUMO can replace SLD1 or SLD2. Cells in which either SBM1 or SBM2 has been mutated are viable and are wild type for response to MMS and HU. In contrast mutation of SBM3 results in significant sensitivity to MMS and HU. These results indicate that the lethality resulting from deletion of SLD1 is not due to loss of SBM2, but that mutation of SBM3 produces a more severe phenotype than does deletion of SLD2. Using chemical denaturation studies, FPLC and dynamic light scattering we show this is likely due to the destabilisation of SLD2. Thus we propose that the region corresponding to the putative SBM3 forms part of the hydrophobic core of SLD2 and is not a SUMO-interacting motif. Over-expression of Hus5, which is the SUMO conjugating enzyme and known to interact with Rad60, does not rescue rad60-SLD2Δ, implying that as well as having a role in the sumoylation process as previously described, Rad60 has a Hus5-independent function. 相似文献

Studies of an EBV-transformed and TNP-specific human B cell line revealed that, unlike myeloma or hybridoma cell lines that consist mainly of fully differentiated cells, most of the cloned EBV-transformed cells were not fully differentiated, as judged by inability to bind TNP-SRBC and to secrete anti-TNP antibody. The minority of more differentiated cells were selected by TNP-SRBC rosetting. They were found to proliferate to a lesser extent than nonrosetting cells and to contain increased numbers of antibody-secreting cells. This inverse relationship between proliferation and differentiation was also shown to be cell cycle related in that the TNP-SRBC rosetting cells resided, to a greater extent than the nonrosetting cells, in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. The finding that the G1 phase of the cell cycle was associated with differentiation into anti-TNP secreting cells was confirmed by demonstrating that treatment with hydroxyurea, which arrests the cells in G1, resulted in decreased proliferation and an increased proportion of antibody-secreting cells. Similarly, addition of phorbol ester resulted in increased antibody secretion and decreased proliferation, suggesting a role for protein kinase C in this differentiation pathway. The strategy of increasing the number of antibody-producing cells in this human EBV line, by promoting differentiation of the cells in G1, may be relevant to the large scale production of specific human mAb for the treatment and diagnosis of human diseases. 相似文献

Biomolecular mechanisms of calvarial bone induction: immature versus mature dura mater 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The ability of newborns and immature animals to reossify calvarial defects has been well described. This capacity is generally lost in children greater than 2 years of age and in mature animals. The dura mater has been implicated as a regulator of calvarial reossification. To date, however, few studies have attempted to identify biomolecular differences in the dura mater that enable immature, but not mature, dura to induce osteogenesis. The purpose of these studies was to analyze metabolic characteristics, protein/gene expression, and capacity to form mineralized bone nodules of cells derived from immature and mature dura mater. Transforming growth factor beta-1, basic fibroblast growth factor, collagen type IalphaI, osteocalcin, and alkaline phosphatase are critical growth factors and extracellular matrix proteins essential for successful osteogenesis. In this study, we have characterized the proliferation rates of immature (6-day-old rats, n = 40) and mature (adult rats, n = 10) dura cell cultures. In addition, we analyzed the expression of transforming growth factor beta-1, basic fibroblast growth factor-2, proliferating cell nuclear antigen, and alkaline phosphatase. Our in vitro findings were corroborated with Northern blot analysis of mRNA expression in total cellular RNA isolated from snap-frozen age-matched dural tissues (6-day-old rats, n = 60; adult rats, n = 10). Finally, the capacity of cultured dural cells to form mineralized bone nodules was assessed. We demonstrated that immature dural cells proliferate significantly faster and produce significantly more proliferating cell nuclear antigen than mature dural cells (p < 0.01). Additionally, immature dural cells produce significantly greater amounts of transforming growth factor beta-1, basic fibroblast growth factor-2, and alkaline phosphatase (p < 0.01). Furthermore, Northern blot analysis of RNA isolated from immature and mature dural tissues demonstrated a greater than 9-fold, 8-fold, and 21-fold increase in transforming growth factor beta-1, osteocalcin, and collagen IalphaI gene expression, respectively, in immature as compared with mature dura mater. Finally, in keeping with their in vivo phenotype, immature dural cells formed large calcified bone nodules in vitro, whereas mature dural cells failed to form bone nodules even with extended culture. These studies suggest that differential expression of growth factors and extracellular matrix molecules may be a critical difference between the osteoinductive capacity of immature and mature dura mater. Finally, we believe that the biomolecular bone- and matrix-inducing phenotype of immature dura mater regulates the ability of young children and immature animals to heal calvarial defects. 相似文献

Antigen-driven T cell clones can proliferate in vivo, eradicate disseminated leukemia, and provide specific immunologic memory 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
J P Klarnet L A Matis D E Kern M T Mizuno D J Peace J A Thompson P D Greenberg M A Cheever 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》1987,138(11):4012-4017
The aim of the current study was to determine the ability of antigen-driven cloned helper cell independent cytotoxic T lymphocytes (HITc) to proliferate and to survive in vivo and to mediate tumor therapy. The HITc clone utilized (denoted 1.B6) was specifically cytolytic to FBL-3, a syngeneic Friend virus-induced murine leukemia. Activation in vitro (48 hr) with FBL-3 induced secretion of interleukin 2 (IL 2), expression of IL 2 receptors (IL 2R), and in vitro proliferation. These cells could be "rested" for several weeks without stimulation, which resulted in reduced expression of IL 2R; however, restimulation with antigen resulted in reinduction of IL 2R and proliferation. The ability of cloned HITc to proliferate and to survive in vivo was examined in cyclophosphamide (CY) pretreated donor mice congenic for the Thy-1 gene. Adoptively transferred cloned HITc could be found in large numbers, and were widely distributed in vivo 1 wk after transfer. In tumor therapy, 1.B6 cells when injected into a site of tumor (i.p.) and used as an adjunct to CY were effective against disseminated FBL-3. In this circumstance, cloned 1.B6 cells could be recovered from cured mice 125 days after transfer and were shown to specifically lyse tumor and proliferate in vitro in response to FBL-3. Thus as an adjunct to CY, tumor-specific cloned HITc are capable of eradicating disseminated leukemia, persisting long-term in vivo, and providing specific immunologic memory. 相似文献
