Deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) forms a 1:1 complex with globular actin (G-actin) and also will depolymerize filamentous actin (F-actin) to form a 1:1 complex. The effect of DNase I on the exchange of the actin nucleotide has been investigated. When DNase I is added to G-actin, the rate of nucleotide exchange is decreased from 1.16 +/- 0.25 X 10(-4) s-1 to 0.28 +/- 0.09 X 10(-4) s-1 (0 degrees C). The presence of ATP or ADP in the actin has little effect on the rate of exchange of the nucleotide for ATP. This suggests that the weaker affinity of ADP than ATP for actin is due to a slower association rate of ADP. The rate of the nucleotide exchange in the actinDNase I complex is increased by the addition of NaCl or MgCl2. When DNase I is added to F-actin, the rate of nucleotide exchange (6.2 +/- 1.6 X 10(-4) x-1, 0 degrees C) is similar to the rate of depolymerization as measured by loss of viscosity. The actinDNase I complex formed by depolymerization of F-actin exchanges nucleotide at a 4-fold faster rate than the G-actinDNase I complex in the same ionic conditions. This and other experiments suggest that DNase I binds first to F-actin before dissociating the monomer from the filament. These results are discussed in terms of possible mechanisms of action depolymerization.  相似文献

In a previous study, we showed that isoproterenol induced actin depolymerization in human airway smooth muscle cells by both protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent and -independent signaling pathways. We now investigate the signaling pathway of PKA-independent actin depolymerization induced by isoproterenol in these cells. Cells were briefly exposed to isoproterenol or PGE(1) in the presence and absence of specific inhibitors of Src-family tyrosine kinases, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3 kinase), or MAP kinase, and actin depolymerization was measured by concomitant staining of filamentous actin with FITC-phalloidin and globular actin with Texas red DNase I. Isoproterenol, cholera toxin, and PGE(1) induced actin depolymerization, indicated by a decrease in the intensity of filamentous/globular fluorescent staining. Pretreatment with the Src kinase inhibitors 4-amino-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-7-(t-butyl)pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyriimidine (PP2) or geldanamycin or the PKA inhibitor Rp-cAMPS only partly inhibited isoproterenol- or PGE(1)-induced actin depolymerization. In contrast, PP2 and geldanamycin did not inhibit forskolin-induced actin depolymerization, and AG-213 (an EGF receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor) did not inhibit isoproterenol- or PGE(1)-induced actin depolymerization. PI3 kinase or MAP kinase inhibition did not inhibit isoproterenol-induced actin depolymerization. Moreover, isoproterenol but not forskolin induced tyrosine phosphorylation of an Src family member at position 416. These results further confirm that both PKA-dependent and PKA-independent pathways mediate actin depolymerization in human airway smooth muscle cells and that the PKA-independent pathway by which isoproterenol induces actin depolymerization in human airway smooth muscle cells involves Src protein tyrosine kinases and the G(s) protein.  相似文献

Isolation of low molecular weight actin-binding proteins from porcine brain   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
Three new actin-binding proteins having molecular weights of 26,000, 21,000, and 19,000 were isolated from porcine brain by DNase I affinity column chromatography. These proteins were released from the DNase I column by elution with a solution of high ionic strength. They were further purified by column chromatographies using hydroxyapatite, phosphocellulose, and Sephadex G-75. All of these actin-binding proteins behaved as monomeric particles in the gel filtration chromatography. After elution of the three actin-binding proteins, actin and profilin were recovered from the DNase I column with 2 M urea solution. The eluted was further purified by a cycle of polymerization and depolymerization and finally by gel filtration. Little difference in polymerizability was detected between the purified brain actin and muscle actin. After sedimentation of the polymerized brain actin, profilin was purified by DEAE-cellulose and gel filtration column chromatographies. In the assay of the action of these actin-binding proteins, the 26K protein was found to cause a large decrease in the rate of actin polymerization, while showing little effect on the extent of polymerization. The 21K protein decreased the steady-state viscosity of actin solution in a concentration-dependent manner irrespective of whether it was added before or after actin polymerization. It reacted with actin at a 1:1 molar ratio.  相似文献

The present study examined the formation of regional cerebral edema in adult rats subjected to lateral (parasagittal) experimental fluid-percussion brain injury. Animals receiving fluid-percussion brain injury of moderate severity over the left parietal cortex were assayed for brain water content at 6 h, 24 h, and 2, 3, 5, and 7 days post injury. Regional sodium and potassium concentrations were measured in a separate group of animals at 10 min, 1 h, 6 h, and 24 h following fluid-percussion injury. Injured parietal cortex demonstrated significant edema, beginning at 6 h post injury (p less than 0.05) and persisting up to 5 days post injury. In the hippocampus ipsilateral to the site of cortical injury, significant edema occurred as early as 1 h post injury (p less than 0.05), with resolution of water accumulation beginning at 3 days. Sodium concentrations significantly increased in both injured cortex (1 h post injury, p less than 0.05) and injured hippocampus (10 min post injury, p less than 0.05). Potassium concentrations fell significantly 1 h post injury within the injured cortex (p less than 0.05), whereas significant decreases were not observed until 24 h post injury within the injured hippocampus. Cation alterations persisted throughout the 24-h post injury period. These results demonstrate that regional brain edema and cation deregulation occur in rats subjected to lateral fluid-percussion brain injury and that these changes may persist for a prolonged period after brain injury.  相似文献

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection causes a rapid, progressive disruption of the host cell cytoskeleton that correlates with actin depolymerization. Whole-mount (3D) electron microscopy was used to analyze the cytoskeleton of uninfected and HCMV-infected human lung fibroblast cells. Within 2 min of HCMV infection, localized areas of cytoskeletal disruption were observed. Disruption extended throughout the cytoplasm during the ensuing 45 to 90 min of infection and resulted in generalized cytoskeletal disorganization. Actin depolymerization occurred, as indicated by an increase in DNase I inhibition and alteration in the fluorescence pattern with rhodamine-conjugated phalloidin. Thus, actin appears to be the primary cytoskeletal target involved during HCMV infection. Fractionation of the virus seed inoculum showed that development of DNase I inhibitory activity in infected cells was associated only with the virus-containing fractions. Cytochalasin B treatment at early times of HCMV infection stimulated progeny virus production. This study demonstrates that rapid cytoskeletal disruption occurs during early periods of HCMV infection and indicates that actin depolymerization facilitates viral infectivity.  相似文献

MICROHETEROGENEITY OF BRAIN CYTOPLASMIC AND SYNAPTOPLASMIC ACTINS   总被引:12,自引:9,他引:3  
Abstract— Actin present in whole rat brain cytoplasm and in synaptosomes was purified by DNase I affinity chromatography. By use of two-dimensional gels and one-dimensional isoelectric focusing gels, brain actin was shown to be composed of two isomeric forms. By comparison with muscle actins, brain actins were identified as the β and γ isomers. Muscle type α actin is not present in brain. Synaptosomal protein with high affinity for DNase I is primarily composed of β and γ actin, however, two minor synaptosomal proteins, S1 and S2, with similar DNase I affinity were also isolated. S11 and S2 have the same apparent molecular weight as whole brain actin, are more acidic than the major actin forms and are distinct from a actin. Relative to β and γ actin, the content of S1 and S2 is 3-fOld greater in synaptosomes when compared to similar non-synaptosomal species. The results demonstrate heterogeneity of brain actins and compartmentalization of brain proteins with high affinity for DNase I at the synapse. It was also shown that tubulin has selective affinity for the DNase I-actin complex.  相似文献

Abstract: Excitatory amino acid (EAA) neurotransmitters may play a role in the pathophysiology of traumatic injury to the CNS. Although NMDA receptor antagonists have been reported to have therapeutic efficacy in animal models of brain injury, these compounds may have unacceptable toxicity for clinical use. One alternative approach is to inhibit the release of EAAs following traumatic injury. The present study examined the effects of administration of a novel sodium channel blocker and EAA release inhibitor, BW1003C87, or the NMDA receptor-associated ion channel blocker magnesium chloride on cerebral edema formation following experimental brain injury in the rat. Animals (n = 33) were subjected to fluid percussion brain injury of moderate severity (2.3 atm) over the left parietal cortex. Fifteen minutes after injury, the animals received a constant infusion of BW1003C87 (10 mg/kg, i.v.), magnesium chloride (300 µmol/kg, i.v.), or saline over 15 min (2.75 ml/kg/15 min). In all animals, regional tissue water content in brain was assessed at 48 h after injury, using the wet weight/dry weight technique. In saline-treated control animals, fluid percussion brain injury produced significant regional brain edema in injured left parietal cortex ( p < 0.001), the cortical area adjacent to the site of maximal injury ( p < 0.001), left hippocampus ( p < 0.001), and left thalamus ( p = 0.02) at 48 h after brain injury. Administration of BW1003C87 15 min postinjury significantly reduced focal brain edema in the cortical area adjacent to the site of maximal injury ( p < 0.02) and left hippocampus ( p < 0.01), whereas magnesium chloride attenuated edema in left hippocampus ( p = 0.02). These results suggest that excitatory neurotransmission may play an important role in the pathogenesis of posttraumatic brain edema and that pre- or post-synaptic blockade of glutamate receptor systems may attenuate part of the deleterious sequelae of traumatic brain injury.  相似文献

The mouse has proven to be an advantageous animal model system in basic science research focused on aiding in development and evaluation of potential treatments; however, the small size of mouse tendons makes consistent and reproducible injury models and subsequent biomechanical evaluation challenging for studying tendon healing. In this study, we investigated the feasibility and reproducibility of multiple mouse tendon injury models. Our hypothesis was that incisional (using a blade) and excisional (using a biopsy punch) injuries would result in consistent differences in tendon material properties. At 16 weeks of age, 17 C57BL/6 mice underwent surgery to create defects in the flexor digitorum longus, Achilles, or patellar tendon. Each animal received 1-2 full-thickness, central-width incisional or excisional injuries per limb; at least one tendon per limb remained uninjured. The injuries were distributed such that each tendon type had comparable numbers of uninjured, incisionally injured, and excisionally injured specimens. Three weeks after injury, all animals were euthanized and tendons were harvested for mechanical testing. As hypothesized, differences were detected for all three different tendon types at three weeks post-injury. While all models created injuries that produced predictable outcomes, the patellar tendon model was the most consistent in terms of number and size of significant differences in injured tendons compared to native properties, as well as in the overall variance in the data. This finding provides support for its use in fundamental tendon healing studies; however, future work may use any of these models, based on their appropriateness for the specific question under study.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to isolate and to characterize actin from the carp liver cytosol and to examine its ability to polymerize and interact with bovine pancreatic DNase I. Carp liver actin was isolated by ion-exchange chromatography, followed by gel filtration and a polymerization/depolymerization cycle or by affinity chromatography using DNase I immobilized to agarose. The purified carp liver actin was a cytoplasmic beta-actin isoform as verified by immunoblotting using isotype specific antibodies. Its isoelectric point (pI) was slightly higher than the pI of rabbit skeletal muscle alpha-actin. Polymerization of purified carp liver actin by 2 mM MgCl(2) or CaCl(2) was only obtained after addition of phalloidin or in the presence of 1 M potassium phosphate. Carp liver actin interacted with DNase I leading to the formation of a stable complex with concomitant inhibition of the DNA degrading activity of DNase I and its ability to polymerize. The estimated binding constant (K(b)) of carp liver actin to DNase I was calculated to be 1.85x10(8) M(-1) which is about 5-fold lower than the affinity of rabbit skeletal muscle alpha-actin to DNase I.  相似文献

Corneal abrasion not only damages the epithelium but also induces stromal keratocyte death at the site of injury. While a coordinated cascade of inflammatory cell recruitment facilitates epithelial restoration, it is unclear if this cascade is necessary for keratocyte recovery. Since platelet and neutrophil (PMN) recruitment after corneal abrasion is beneficial to epithelial wound healing, we wanted to determine if these cells play a role in regulating keratocyte repopulation after epithelial abrasion. A 2 mm diameter central epithelial region was removed from the corneas of C57BL/6 wildtype (WT), P-selectin deficient (P-sel-/-), and CD18 hypomorphic (CD18hypo) mice using the Algerbrush II. Corneas were studied at 6h intervals out to 48h post-injury to evaluate platelet and PMN cell numbers; additional corneas were studied at 1, 4, 14, and 28 days post injury to evaluate keratocyte numbers. In WT mice, epithelial abrasion induced a loss of anterior central keratocytes and keratocyte recovery was rapid and incomplete, reaching ~70% of uninjured baseline values by 4 days post-injury but no further improvement at 28 days post-injury. Consistent with a beneficial role for platelets and PMNs in wound healing, keratocyte recovery was significantly depressed at 4 days post-injury (~30% of uninjured baseline) in P-sel-/- mice, which are known to have impaired platelet and PMN recruitment after corneal abrasion. Passive transfer of platelets from WT, but not P-sel-/-, into P-sel-/- mice prior to injury restored anterior central keratocyte numbers at 4 days post-injury to P-sel-/- uninjured baseline levels. While PMN infiltration in injured CD18hypo mice was similar to injured WT mice, platelet recruitment was markedly decreased and anterior central keratocyte recovery was significantly reduced (~50% of baseline) at 4–28 days post-injury. Collectively, the data suggest platelets and platelet P-selectin are critical for efficient keratocyte recovery after corneal epithelial abrasion.  相似文献

Actin is a majorfunctional and structural cytoskeletal protein that mediates suchdiverse processes as motility, cytokinesis, contraction, and control ofcell shape and polarity. While many extracellular signals are known tomediate actin filament polymerization, considerably less is known aboutsignals that mediate depolymerization of the actin cytoskeleton. Humanairway smooth muscle cells were briefly exposed to isoproterenol,forskolin, or the cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) agoniststimulatory diastereoisomer of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate(Sp-cAMPS). Actin polymerization was measured by concomitantstaining of filamentous actin with FITC-phalloidin and globular actinwith Texas red DNase I. Isoproterenol, forskolin, or Sp-cAMPS inducedactin depolymerization, indicated by a decrease in the intensity offilamentous/globular fluorescent staining. The PKA inhibitor Rpdiastereomer of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphothioate(Rp-cAMPS) completely inhibited forskolin-stimulated depolymerization, whereas it only partially inhibitedisoproterenol-induced depolymerization. The protein tyrosine kinaseinhibitors genistein or tyrphostin A23 also partially inhibitedisoproterenol-induced actin depolymerization. In contrast, thecombination of Rp-cAMPS and either tyrosine kinase inhibitor had anadditive effect at inhibiting isoproterenol-induced actindepolymerization. These results suggest that both PKA-dependent and-independent pathways mediate actin depolymerization in human airwaysmooth muscle cells.

While actin polymerization and depolymerization are both essential for cell movement, few studies have focused on actin depolymerization. In vivo, depolymerization can occur exceedingly rapidly and in a spatially defined manner: the F-actin in the lamellipodia depolymerizes in 30 s after chemoattractant removal (Cassimeris, L., H. McNeill, and S. H. Zigmond. 1990. J. Cell Biol. 110:1067-1075). To begin to understand the regulation of F-actin depolymerization, we have examined F-actin depolymerization in lysates of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs). Surprisingly, much of the cell F-actin, measured with a TRITC-phalloidin-binding assay, was stable after lysis in a physiological salt buffer (0.15 M KCl): approximately 50% of the F-actin did not depolymerize even after 18 h. This stable F-actin included lamellar F-actin which could still be visualized one hour after lysis by staining with TRITC-phalloidin and by EM. We investigated the basis for this stability. In lysates with cell concentrations greater than 10(7) cells/ml, sufficient globular actin (G-actin) was present to result in a net increase in F-actin. However, the F-actin stability was not solely because of the presence of free G-actin since addition of DNase I to the lysate did not increase the F-actin loss. Nor did it appear to be because of barbed end capping factors since cell lysates provided sites for barbed end polymerization of exogenous added actin. The stable F-actin existed in a macromolecular complex that pelleted at low gravitational forces. Increasing the salt concentration of the lysis buffer decreased the amount of F-actin that pelleted at low gravitational forces and increased the amount of F-actin that depolymerized. Various actin-binding and cross-linking proteins such as tropomyosin, alpha-actinin, and actin-binding protein pelleted with the stable F-actin. In addition, we found that alpha-actinin, a filament cross-linking protein, inhibited the rate of pyrenyl F-actin depolymerization. These results suggested that actin cross-linking proteins may contribute to the stability of cellular actin after lysis. The activity of crosslinkers may be regulated in vivo to allow rapid turnover of lamellipodia F-actin.  相似文献

The spectrin-4.1-actin complex isolated from the cytoskeleton of human erythrocyte [3] was found to be similar to muscle F-actin in several aspects: Both the complex and F-actin nucleate cytochalasin-sensitive actin polymerization; both bind dihydrocytochalasin B with similar binding constants; both can be depolymerized by DNase I with loss of cytochalasin binding activity. From these results, we conclude that the actin in the complex is in an oligomeric form. However, the presence of spectrin and band 4.1 in the complex not only stabilized the actin in the complex as evidenced by its resistance to depolymerization in low-ionic-strength conditions and to DNase I as compared with F-actin, but also altered the characteristics of the binding site(s) for cytochalasins believed to be located at the “barbed” (polymerizing) end of the oligomeric actin.  相似文献

The pathological sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI) include increased oxidative stress due to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Regulation of ROS levels following TBI is determined primarily by antioxidant enzyme activity that in turn can be influenced by nerve growth factor (NGF). Hypothermia is one of the current therapies designed to combat the deleterious effects of TBI. However, it has been shown to suppress post-trauma increases in NGF levels in rat brain. The present study sought to determine whether post-injury hypothermia also impairs the antioxidant response to injury, and if such an effect could be reversed by infusion of exogenous NGF. We employed a lateral controlled cortical impact injury model in rat, followed by moderate hypothermia treatment with supplemental intracerebroventricular infusion of NGF or vehicle. The time course of changes in post-injury/intervention levels of NGF and activity of three major enzymes responsible for ROS scavenging, catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), was determined in the hippocampus. Relative to levels in injured, normothermic animals, hypothermia treatment not only suppressed NGF levels, but also attenuated CAT and GPx activity, and increased SOD activity. Infusion of NGF in injured, hypothermia-treated animals was ineffective in restoring hippocampal antioxidant enzymes activity to levels produced after injury under normothermic conditions, although it was able to increase septal cholinergic (choline acetyltransferase) enzyme activity. These results have implications for clinical treatment of TBI, demonstrating that moderate hypothermia suppresses NGF and the antioxidant response after TBI; the latter cannot be countered by exogenous NGF administration.  相似文献

Isolation and characterization of actin from Entamoeba histolytica   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
Actin has been identified and purified partially from trophozoites of Entamoeba histolytica HMI-IMSS by a procedure that minimizes proteolysis. In cellular extracts, Entamoeba actin would copolymerize with muscle actin, but would not bind to DNase I or form microfilaments. Fractionation of the extracts by DEAE-cellulose and Sephadex G-150 chromatography yielded a purified actin that would copolymerize with rabbit skeletal muscle actin or polymerize alone into long filaments at 24 degrees C upon addition of 100 mM KC1 and 2 mM MgCl2. These filaments are not cold-stable and will depolymerize at 4 degrees C in 1 or 2 h. Entamoeba actin filaments bind phallotoxin with the same affinity as muscle actin and decorate with rabbit skeletal muscle heavy meromyosin. Entamoeba actin filaments activate the Mg2+ ATPase of heavy meromyosin to the same Vmax as muscle actin, but the Kapp is 2.8 times higher. Entamoeba actin is a single species with a slightly higher molecular weight than muscle actin (45,000) and a more acidic pI (5.4). The purified actin does not bind to DNase I, produce inhibition of the enzymatic activity, or block the binding of muscle actin. Comparison of the peptides obtained by limit digest with protease V8 from Staphylococcus aureus shows sequences with common mobility between alpha-actin and Entamoeba actin, but additional peptides are present which may account for the different properties of the Entamoeba actin. Finally, in vitro translation of mRNA from trophozoites produces a single polypeptide equivalent to the molecule purified from Entamoeba extracts.  相似文献

Coordinated regulation of cell migration, cytokine maturation and apoptosis is critical in inflammatory responses. Caspases, a family of cysteine proteases, are known to regulate cytokine maturation and apoptosis. Here, we show that caspase-11, a mammalian pro-inflammatory caspase, regulates cell migration during inflammation. Caspase-11-deficient lymphocytes exhibit a cell-autonomous migration defect in vitro and in vivo. We demonstrate that caspase-11 interacts physically and functionally with actin interacting protein 1 (Aip1), an activator of cofilin-mediated actin depolymerization. The caspase-recruitment domain (CARD) of caspase-11 interacts with the carboxy-terminal WD40 propeller domain of Aip1 to promote cofilin-mediated actin depolymerization. Cells with Aip1 or caspase-11 deficiency exhibit defects in actin dynamics. Using in vitro actin depolymerization assays, we found that caspase-11 and Aip1 work cooperatively to promote cofilin-mediated actin depolymerization. These data demonstrate a novel cell autonomous caspase-mediated mechanism that regulates actin dynamics and mammalian cell migration distinct from the receptor mediated Rho-Rac-Cdc42 pathway.  相似文献

Exposure of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli strains to a sublethal concentration (0.75 mg/liter) of copper for 3 days at 4 degrees C induced sensitivity to deoxycholate (0.1%). When placed in a complex (brain heart infusion) or a defined amino acid salt medium, the copper-injured cells recovered their tolerance to deoxycholate in 3 and 6 h, respectively, and commenced active growth. Growth and heat-stable enterotoxin production of uninjured and copper-injured cells were studied in brain heart infusion medium. A slightly altered growth curve and an initial slow rate of toxin production were observed in injured cells when compared with those corresponding uninjured controls. However, maximum heat-stable enterotoxin levels in injured cultures were comparable to those produced by uninjured cells, suggesting that the enterotoxigenic potential of copper-injured cells was fully retained.  相似文献

The rate of filamentous actin (F-actin) depolymerization is proportional to the number of filaments depolarizing and changes in the rate are proportional to changes in filament number. To determine the number and length of actin filaments in polymorphonuclear leukocytes and the change in filament number and length that occurs during the increase in F-actin upon chemoattractant stimulation, the time course of cellular F-actin depolymerization in lysates of control and peptide-stimulated cells was examined. F-actin was quantified by the TRITC-labeled phalloidin staining of pelletable actin. Lysis in 1.2 M KCl and 10 microM DNase I minimized the effects of F-actin binding proteins and G-actin, respectively, on the kinetics of depolymerization. To determine filament number and length from a depolymerization time course, depolymerization kinetics must be limited by the actin monomer dissociation rate. Comparison of time courses of depolymerization in the presence (pointed ends free) or absence (barbed and pointed ends free) of cytochalasin suggested depolymerization occurred from both ends of the filament and that monomer dissociation was rate limiting. Control cells had 1.7 +/- 0.4 x 10(5) filaments with an average length of 0.29 +/- 0.09 microns. Chemo-attractant stimulation for 90 s at room temperature with 0.02 microM N-formylnorleucylleucylphenylalanine caused a twofold increase in F-actin and about a two-fold increase in the total number of actin filaments to 4.0 +/- 0.5 x 10(5) filaments with an average length of 0.27 +/- 0.07 microns. In both cases, most (approximately 80%) of the filaments were quite short (less than or equal to 0.18 micron). The length distributions of actin filaments in stimulated and control cells were similar.  相似文献
