肿瘤干细胞存在于多种类型肿瘤中,并与肿瘤的发生发展密切相关。肿瘤干细胞和胚胎干细胞在生物学特征上存在许多共同点,如自我更新,多潜能性分化等等。然而,肿瘤干细胞和胚胎干细胞又存在很大差异,主要表现在耐药性、致瘤力和转移活性上。肿瘤干细胞在临床研究中具有不可替代的重要性,然而其分子水平上的调节机制尚未被完整揭示。作为内源性非编码小RNA的一部分,miRNAs在细胞发生发展的调节过程中扮演着重要角色。大量研究表明,miRNAs参与肿瘤干细胞的调节,并参与肿瘤的发生与进展。探索miRNAs在肿瘤干细胞基因表达调控中的作用及作用机制,有助于肿瘤特异性生物学标志物及治疗靶点的确定。本文就miRNAs与肿瘤干细胞调节的相关研究进展进行综述。 相似文献

Immunofluorescent and immunochemical evidence for the expression of cytovillin in the microvilli of a wide range of cultured human cells 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

We have previously purified a Mr 75,000 protein, cytovillin, from cultured human choriocarcinoma cells (JEG-3) and shown that this protein was specifically confined to the microvillus membrane of these cells. I have now studied the expression and the subcellular distribution of cytovillin in eighteen normal and transformed human cell lines and strains by using immunoblotting and indirect immunofluorescence microscopy. In all cell types, cytovillin was highly enriched in cell surface protrusions. When cell types were ranked according to their staining intensity, choriocarcinoma was highest, then amniotic epithelial cells, other choriocarcinoma cells and tumor cells, and finally fibroblastoid cells. The latter only gave faint diffuse fluorescence on the plasma membrane and, occasionally, on the microvilli. However, detergent extracts of all cell types could be shown to contain cytovillin by the use of immunoblotting techniques. Metabolic pulse-chase labelling experiments with JEG-3 cells demonstrated synthesis of cytovillin as a single-chain polypeptide. No precursor forms or specific proteolytic cleavage products could be seen either by immunoblotting or immunoprecipitation. The protein was found to be very stable with a biologic half-life of about 25 hours. The pI determined by isoelectric focusing was 6.1. These results were consistent with cytovillin being an integral component of the microvilli and other surface extensions of all human cell types examined. 相似文献

Mechanical activity of cells and the stress imposed on them by extracellular environment is a constant source of injury to the plasma membrane (PM). In invasive tumor cells, increased motility together with the harsh environment of the tumor stroma further increases the risk of PM injury. The impact of these stresses on tumor cell plasma membrane and mechanism by which tumor cells repair the PM damage are poorly understood. Ca2+ entry through the injured PM initiates repair of the PM. Depending on the cell type, different organelles and proteins respond to this Ca2+ entry and facilitate repair of the damaged plasma membrane. We recently identified that proteins expressed in various metastatic cancers including Ca2+-binding EF hand protein S100A11 and its binding partner annexin A2 are used by tumor cells for plasma membrane repair (PMR). Here we will discuss the involvement of S100, annexin proteins and their regulation of actin cytoskeleton, leading to PMR. Additionally, we will show that another S100 member – S100A4 accumulates at the injured PM. These findings reveal a new role for the S100 and annexin protein up regulation in metastatic cancers and identify these proteins and PMR as targets for treating metastatic cancers. 相似文献

Membrane proteins play many critical roles in cells, mediating flow of material and information across cell membranes. They have evolved to perform these functions in the environment of a cell membrane, whose physicochemical properties are often different from those of common cell membrane mimetics used for structure determination. As a result, membrane proteins are difficult to study by traditional methods of structural biology, and they are significantly underrepresented in the protein structure databank. Solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (SSNMR) has long been considered as an attractive alternative because it allows for studies of membrane proteins in both native-like membranes composed of synthetic lipids and in cell membranes. Over the past decade, SSNMR has been rapidly developing into a major structural method, and a growing number of membrane protein structures obtained by this technique highlights its potential. Here we discuss membrane protein sample requirements, review recent progress in SSNMR methodologies, and describe recent advances in characterizing membrane proteins in the environment of a cellular membrane. 相似文献

The plasma membrane is considered to play a major role in the development and maintenance of the multidrug resistance (MDR)
phenotype, a role which may in part be mediated by an inducible 170 kD transmembrane protein (P-170). The present freeze-fracture
study of plasma membranes of daunorubicin-resistant Ehrlich ascites and P388 leukemia cells demonstrated a significant increase
in the density of intramembrane particles (IMP) in the P-face, but not the E-face, of resistant sublines compared with wild
type cells. Furthermore, a three-dimensional histogram plot of the diameters of P-face IMPs in Ehrlich ascites tumor cells
showed the emergence of a subpopulation of 9 × 11 nm IMPs not found in wild type cells. The size of these IMPs would be consistent
with a MW of approximately 340 kD, thus indicating that P-170, shown to be present in both resistant cell lines by Western
blot analysis and immunohistochemical staining, exists as a dimer in the plasma membrane. Incubation with the calcium channel
blocker verapamil, in concentrations known to inhibit daunorubicin efflux in resistant cells, showed evidence of membrane
disturbance in the form of IMP clustering in both wild type and resistant Ehrlich ascites tumor cells. However, incubation
with daunorubicin itself did not alter the freeze-fracture morphology of the plasma membranes. 相似文献

To study whether membrane fluidity of tumor cells have an influence on metastasis, MT3 breast cancer cells harvested during exponential growth and under confluent conditions were compared. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) data revealed that, in comparison to growing cells, confluent cells have a significant higher fluidity in their membrane related to a higher relative portion of disordered domains and a reduced portion of the most ordered domains. Further, sialyl Lewis X and/or A ligand-mediated adhesion of these cells was 2-fold enhanced. Confocal laser scanning microscopy further demonstrated a higher motility of ligands in the membrane of confluent cells, together with an accumulation of these ligands in distinct areas. Both facts are suggested to be responsible for an enhanced cell adhesion observed. Finally, an increased number of large distinct metastatic foci was registered in lungs of mice after i.v. inoculation of confluent cells. The results indicate that domain organization and fluidity of the cell membrane affect tumor cell adhesion and can have in this way also an impact on the malignancy of breast cancer cells. 相似文献

Summary We have analyzed the ability of the physical substratum to modulate both the ultrastructural and protein synthetic characteristics
of the Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) renal cell line. When MDCK cells were seeded on Millipore Millicell CM microporous
membrane cell culture inserts they demonstrated a more columnar organization with an increase in cell density sixfold greater
than the same cells seeded on conventional plastic substrata. After 1 wk postseeding on the microporous membrane a partial
basal lamina was noted, with a contiguous basement membrane being apparent after 2 wk. One-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate
gel electrophoresis was used to analyze detergent-solubilized proteins from MDCK cells maintained on plastic substrata vs.
microporous membranes. When proteins were pulse-labeled with [35S]methionine, a 55 kDa protein was evident in the cytosolic extract of cells grown on collagen, laminin, and nontreated plastic
substrata; but this labeled protein was not evident in similar extracts from cells grown on collagen and laminin-coated microporous
membranes. To test if the polarized, basement-membrane secreting phenotype of the MDCK cells could be generated on a microporous
membrane without pretreatment with any extracellular matrix (ECM) components, cells were seeded on the Millipore Millicell
HA (cellulosic) microporous membrane. This type of substrata does not need a coating of ECM components for cell attachment.
A partial basement membrane was formed below cells where the basal surface of the cell was planar, but not in areas where
the cell formed large cytoplasmic extensions into the filter. This led us to the conclusion that the microporous nature of
the substrata can dictate both ultrastructural and protein synthetic activities of MDCK cells. Furthermore, we suggest that
both the planar nature of the basal surface and the microporosity of the substrate are corequisites for the deposition of
the basement membrane. 相似文献

Tau Dephosphorylation at Tau-1 Site Correlates with its Association to Cell Membrane 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
It has been considered that tau protein is mainly a cytoplasmic protein since it is a microtubule associated protein. However, it has also been suggested that tau could be located in the cell nucleus and membrane. In our work, the cellular distribution of tau has been studied by immunofluorescence and western blot analysis, after subcellular fractionation in neuroblastoma cells and in tau-transfected non neural cells using, mainly, two types of tau antibodies; antibody 7.51 (that recognizes tau independent of its phosphorylation level); and antibody Tau-1 (that recognizes tau only in its dephosphorylated form). Also, tau was expressed in COS-1 cells to test for the features involved in the sorting of tau to different cell localizations. Our results show that tau associated to cell membrane has a lower phosphorylation level in its proline-rich region. Additionally, in differentiated neuroblastoma cells, tau phosphorylation, at that region, decreases and the amount of tau associated to cell membrane increases. 相似文献
