Retinoic acid (RA) is teratogenic in rodents and also induces the synthesis of stress proteins in fetal mouse limb buds. To determine if the RA induction of stress proteins is target tissue specific, pregnant CD-1 mice were gavaged with 100 mg/kg RA on day 11 of gestation, and nuclei isolated from tissues susceptible to RA-induced malformations (target tissues) as well as nuclei isolated from nontarget tissues were examined for stress protein synthesis and malformations. Forelimb and hindlimb (target tissues), as well as heart and tail (nontarget tissues), were removed from embryos 2.5 hours after RA treatment (1.5 hr after [3H]leucine labeling). Cell nuclei were isolated, stained with a DNA specific fluorochrome, propidium iodide, and sorted from the G0 + G1 and G2 + M phases of the cell cycle. Forelimb and hindlimb target tissues showed the synthesis in these embryonic nuclear proteins of an 84,000 relative molecular mass (Mr) protein and a 90,000 Mr protein following RA treatment. Two 20,000-25,000 Mr stress proteins were also labeled both in forelimb and hindlimb. Forelimb and hindlimb from untreated dams showed no stress protein labeling. Neither heart nor tail, nontarget tissues, showed any stress protein labeling following RA treatment. Classical teratological evaluation of embryos treated on GD 11 and sacrificed on GD 17 showed that 100% of the fetuses had forelimb and/or hindlimb malformations, while no malformations were observed in either the heart or tail. Based on the correlation of teratological anomalies with the identification of stress proteins in target tissue only, we postulate that stress proteins may be involved in the teratogenic process. Further work is necessary to establish whether a causal relationship exists. 相似文献

Accurate identification of drug targets is a crucial part of any drug development program. We mined the human proteome to discover properties of proteins that may be important in determining their suitability for pharmaceutical modulation. Data was gathered concerning each protein’s sequence, post-translational modifications, secondary structure, germline variants, expression profile and drug target status. The data was then analysed to determine features for which the target and non-target proteins had significantly different values. This analysis was repeated for subsets of the proteome consisting of all G-protein coupled receptors, ion channels, kinases and proteases, as well as proteins that are implicated in cancer. Machine learning was used to quantify the proteins in each dataset in terms of their potential to serve as a drug target. This was accomplished by first inducing a random forest that could distinguish between its targets and non-targets, and then using the random forest to quantify the drug target likeness of the non-targets. The properties that can best differentiate targets from non-targets were primarily those that are directly related to a protein’s sequence (e.g. secondary structure). Germline variants, expression levels and interactions between proteins had minimal discriminative power. Overall, the best indicators of drug target likeness were found to be the proteins’ hydrophobicities, in vivo half-lives, propensity for being membrane bound and the fraction of non-polar amino acids in their sequences. In terms of predicting potential targets, datasets of proteases, ion channels and cancer proteins were able to induce random forests that were highly capable of distinguishing between targets and non-targets. The non-target proteins predicted to be targets by these random forests comprise the set of the most suitable potential future drug targets, and should therefore be prioritised when building a drug development programme. 相似文献

trans-4-Acetylaminostilbene (trans-AAS) is acutely toxic in rats and lesions are produced specifically in the glandular stomach. Toxicity is slightly increased by pretreating the animals with phenobarbital (PB) and is completely prevented by pretreatment with methylcholanthrene (MC). The prostaglandin inhibitors, indomethacin and acetyl salicylic acid, do not reduce toxicity. The high efficiency of MC suggested that toxicity is caused by reactive metabolites. trans-[3H]-AAS was administered orally to untreated and to PB- or MC-pretreated female Wistar rats and target doses in different tissues were measured by means of covalent binding to proteins, RNA and DNA. Macromolecular binding in the target tissue of poisoned animals was significantly lower than in liver and kidney and comparable to other non-target tissues. Pretreatment with MC lowered macromolecular binding in all extrahepatic tissues but not in liver. These findings are not in line with tissue specific metabolic activation. The only unique property of the target tissue, glandular stomach, that we observed was a particular affinity for the systemically available parent compound. In the early phase of poisoning, tissue concentrations were exceedingly high and the stomach function was impaired. 相似文献

Trans-4-acetylaminostilbene (trans-AAS) is a potent carcinogen and quite specifically produces sebaceous gland tumors, predominantly in the Zymbal's gland of rats. It is also acutely toxic to the rat glandular stomach. Recent results have shown that these target tissues are not notably exposed to reactive metabolites after single administration of the compound. Therefore, experiments were designed to test whether multiple exposures cause changes in metabolic activation or repair of DNA-bound metabolites to the effect that target and non-target tissues accumulate macromolecular damage differently. Trans-[3H]AAS was orally administered to female Wistar rats in 12 doses over 6 weeks and binding of metabolites to proteins, RNA and DNA in several tissues as well as the pattern of adducts in liver nucleic acids were measured. In addition, the elimination of macromolecular-bound metabolites was determined at various intervals during the treatment. Metabolism and clearance of bound metabolites remained unaltered. As a consequence, DNA-bound metabolites accumulated in all tissues measured; to the greatest extent in the non-target tissues liver and kidney. Tissue exposure, as estimated by protein-binding, differed by a factor of 10 and decreased in the following order: liver, kidney, lung, Zymbal's gland, glandular stomach, mammary tissue. The results support the notion that neither the extent nor the persistence of DNA-binding correlate with the biological effects of trans-AAS. 相似文献

Increasing treatment specificity is one of the major aims of cancer research. Photodynamic therapy is a clinically proven treatment for some cancers and certain other diseases. Photosensitisers generally have little intrinsic selectivity for tumours and any accumulation is dependent upon the type of tumour involved. Increasing tumour selective accumulation could improve the efficacy of PDT and reduce any risk of side effects caused by photosensitiser accumulation in non-target tissue. In order to target photosensitisers to tumours, a cyclic peptide, cRGDfK (arginine-glycine-aspartic acid-phenylalanine-lysine) has been synthesised using solid phase peptide chemistry and conjugated to the porphyrin photosensitiser, protoporphyrin IX. The arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) motif has been shown to specifically bind alphavbeta3 integrins, heterodimeric glycoproteins upregulated on the surface of proliferating endothelial cells such as those in tumour neovasculature. This study reports the synthesis, in vitro and in vivo characterisation of this novel compound and compares its properties to the free photosensitiser. The individual components in our system, protoporphyrin IX and cRGDfK retain their respective photodynamic and integrin binding activity following the coupling step and produce a conjugate of high purity. The PpIX:cRGDfK conjugate is shown to be a good photosensitiser in vitro in the integrin positive human SiHa cell line and in vivo in a mouse CaNT tumour model. Moreover, pharmacokinetic analysis of PpIX:cRGDfK treated mice shows significant retention and accumulation of photosensitiser in tumour tissue with higher tumour : normal tissue ratios than the free photosensitiser. However, although the conjugate shows this higher accumulation and improved tumour : non-target tissue ratios, the overall in vivo PDT effect, between dose-light intervals of 0 and 6 h, is not significantly better than for free protoporphyrin IX This is possibly due to differences in the target environment or in the subcellular localisation of the compounds. 相似文献

Polycomb group (PcG) proteins bind and regulate hundreds of genes. Previous evidence has suggested that long-range chromatin interactions may contribute to the regulation of PcG target genes. Here, we adapted the Chromosome Conformation Capture on Chip (4C) assay to systematically map chromosomal interactions in Drosophila melanogaster larval brain tissue. Our results demonstrate that PcG target genes interact extensively with each other in nuclear space. These interactions are highly specific for PcG target genes, because non-target genes with either low or high expression show distinct interactions. Notably, interactions are mostly limited to genes on the same chromosome arm, and we demonstrate that a topological rather than a sequence-based mechanism is responsible for this constraint. Our results demonstrate that many interactions among PcG target genes exist and that these interactions are guided by overall chromosome architecture. 相似文献

Non-histone protein-DNA complexes with acceptor activity for estradiol-receptor complexes were reconstituted from fractionated calf uterine chromatin. Acceptor activity had tissue specificity with target tissue binding exceeding non-target tissue binding. The binding of estradiol-receptor complexes to acceptor sites was dependent on intact non-histone protein-DNA complexes, reconstituted select non-histone proteins, and protein equivalent: DNA reconstitution ratios. [3H]Estradiol-receptor complexes were bound to reconstituted non-histone protein-DNA complexes (i.e., nucleoacidic protein) with a high affinity and with a limited number of binding sites. Fractionation of uterine chromatin non-histone proteins identified two major sets of non-histone proteins which had acceptor activity when reconstituted with DNA. Thus, it seems possible to reconstitute nucleoacidic protein fractions with specific acceptor activity for the calf uterine estrogen receptor. 相似文献

Retinoic acid (RA) is teratogenic in rodent embryos. Several teratogens have been shown to induce the synthesis of a subset of heat shock proteins (stress proteins) in Drosophila. To determine if RA induces the synthesis of these proteins in rodent embryos, pregnant ICR mice were dosed with 100 mg/kg RA on Day 11 of gestation. Forelimb buds were removed from embryos 2.5 hr post-RA-treatment and nuclei were isolated, stained, and sorted from stages of the cell cycle. Nuclear proteins were extracted and analyzed by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Nuclear proteins with molecular weights of approximately 84 and 25 kDa were synthesized in embryos in the G0 + G1 phase after pregnant dams were treated with RA. Isoelectric points, molecular weights, immunochemical blotting, and polypeptide mapping demonstrated that these proteins are indistinguishable from stress proteins isolated under a variety of conditions from rat submaxillary glands and mouse lymphoma cells. These results suggest that treatment with RA induces the synthesis of a subset of stress proteins; the role of these proteins in the teratogenic effects of RA is not known. 相似文献

The purpose of this phospho-proteomics study was to demonstrate the broad analysis of cellular protein phosphorylation in cells and tissue as a means to monitor changes in cellular states. As a cancer model, human tumor-derived A431 cells known to express the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) were grown as cell cultures or xenograft tumors in mice. The cells and tumor-bearing animals were subjected to treatments including the EGFR-directed protein kinase inhibitor PK166 and/or EGF stimulation. Whole cell/tissue protein extracts were converted to peptides by using trypsin, and phosphorylated peptides were purified by an affinity capture method. Peptides and phosphorylation sites were characterized and quantified by using a combination of tandem mass spectroscopy (MS) and Fourier transform MS instrumentation (FTMS). By analyzing roughly 106 cell equivalents, 780 unique phosphopeptides from approx 450 different proteins were characterized. Only a small number of these phosphorylation sites have been described previously in literature. Although a targeted analysis of the EGFR pathway was not a specific aim of this study, 22 proteins known to be associated with EGFR signaling were identified. Fifty phosphopeptides were found changed in abundance as a function of growth factor or drug treatment including novel sites of phosphorylation on the EGFR itself. These findings demonstrate the feasibility of using phospho-proteomics to determine drug and disease mechanisms, and as a measure of drug target modulation in tissue. 相似文献

Cytochalasin D alters the rate of synthesis of some HEp-2 cytoskeletal proteins. Examination by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
J Tannenbaum 《European journal of biochemistry》1986,155(3):533-542
The most abundant proteins of HEp-2 cells were resolved by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The protein spots corresponding to several cytoskeletal proteins (vimentin, alpha-tubulin, beta-tubulin, alpha-actinin, tropomyosins, and cytokeratins) were identified by comigration with protein markers or by immunological techniques. After treatment of HEp-2 cells with 0.2 microM or 2.0 microM cytochalasin D for 20 h, radioautograms of two-dimensional gel patterns of lysates from cells pulse-labeled with [35S]methionine indicated that the drug altered the rate of synthesis of some proteins. The relative rate of synthesis of the identified cytoskeletal proteins was measured. Synthesis of alpha-actinin, the higher-molecular-mass pair of tropomyosins and actin were similarly increased with cytochalasin D treatment, suggesting coordinate induction. Vimentin and tubulin synthesis was depressed. One cytokeratin exhibited an increase in synthesis comparable to actin, another was increased to a lesser extent and one was decreased. 相似文献

The potential of photoaptamers as proteomic probes was investigated. Photoaptamers are defined as aptamers that bear photocross-linking functionality, in this report, 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine. A key question regarding the use of photoaptamer probes is the specificity of the cross-linking reaction. The specificity of three photoaptamers was explored by comparing their reactions with target proteins and non-target proteins. The range of target/non-target specificity varies from 100- to >10(6)-fold with most values >10(4)-fold. The contributions of the initial binding step and the photocross-linking step were evaluated for each reaction. Photocross-linking never degraded specificity and significantly increased aptamer specificity in some cases. The application of photoaptamer technology to proteomics was investigated in microarray format. Immobilized anti-human immunodeficiency virus-gp120 aptamer was able to detect subnanomolar concentrations of target protein in 5% human serum. The levels of sensitivity and specificity displayed by photoaptamers, combined with other advantageous properties of aptamers, should facilitate development of protein chip technology. 相似文献

Plant lectins as defense proteins against phytophagous insects 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
One of the most important direct defense responses in plants against the attack by phytophagous insects is the production of insecticidal peptides or proteins. One particular class of entomotoxic proteins present in many plant species is the group of carbohydrate-binding proteins or lectins. During the last decade a lot of progress was made in the study of a few lectins that are expressed in response to herbivory by phytophagous insects and the insecticidal properties of plant lectins in general. This review gives an overview of lectins with high potential for the use in pest control strategies based on their activity towards pest insects. In addition, potential target sites for lectins inside the insect and the mode of action are discussed. In addition, the effect of plant lectins on non-target organisms such as beneficial insects as well as on human/animal consumers is discussed. It can be concluded that some insecticidal lectins are useful tools that can contribute to the development of integrated pest management strategies with minimal effect(s) on non-target organisms. 相似文献

This study investigated the effect of clofibrate treatment on expression of target genes of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-alpha and various genes of the lipid metabolism in liver and adipose tissue of pigs. An experiment with 18 pigs was performed in which pigs were fed either a control diet or the same diet supplemented with 5 g clofibrate/kg for 28 days. Pigs treated with clofibrate had heavier livers, moderately increased mRNA concentrations of various PPAR-alpha target genes in liver and adipose tissue, a higher concentration of 3-hydroxybutyrate, and markedly lower concentrations of triglycerides and cholesterol in plasma and lipoproteins than control pigs (P < 0.05). mRNA concentrations of sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBP)-1 and -2, insulin-induced genes (Insig)-1 and Insig-2, and the SREBP target genes acetyl-CoA carboxylase, 3-methyl-3-hydroxyglutaryl-CoA reductase, and low-density lipoprotein receptor in liver and adipose tissue and mRNA concentrations of apolipoproteins A-I, A-II, and C-III in the liver were not different between both groups of pigs. In conclusion, this study shows that clofibrate treatment activates PPAR-alpha in liver and adipose tissue and has a strong hypotriglyceridemic and hypocholesterolemic effect in pigs. The finding that mRNA concentrations of some proteins responsible for the hypolipidemic action of fibrates in humans were not altered suggests that there were certain differences in the mode of action compared with humans. It is also shown that PPAR-alpha activation by clofibrate does not affect hepatic expression of SREBP target genes involved in synthesis of triglycerides and cholesterol homeostasis in liver and adipose tissue of pigs. 相似文献

任何转基因作物在进入商业化应用之前都必须经过严格的环境风险评价。评价转基因作物特别是抗虫作物对农田重要非靶标节肢动物的生态影响是其中一项重要内容。当前,全球种植的转基因抗虫作物大多表达对鳞翅目害虫具有活性的Cry1或Cry2类杀虫蛋白。由于非靶标鳞翅目昆虫如斑蝶、家蚕等与靶标害虫具有较近的亲缘关系,其幼虫可能同样对这类杀虫蛋白敏感。因此,这类转基因抗虫作物对非靶标鳞翅目害虫的潜在影响引起了研究者的广泛关注。在总结国内外相关研究数据的基础上,系统分析了转基因抗虫作物对非靶标蝶类和蚕类昆虫的潜在影响,获得以下结论:虽然蚕类和蝶类昆虫对Cry1或Cry2类杀虫蛋白敏感,但在自然条件下这类非靶标昆虫暴露于Cry杀虫蛋白的水平很低,抗鳞翅目害虫转基因作物的种植不可能显著影响田间蝶类昆虫的种群密度,也不会给我国的蚕丝产业带来负面影响。 相似文献

In these studies, we wished to determine the effect of teratogenic doses of retinoic acid on the expression of cellular retinoic acid binding protein I (CRABP-I) mRNA, cellular retinoic acid binding protein II (CRABP-II) mRNA, cellular retinol binding protein I (CRBP-I) mRNA, and cellular retinol binding protein II (CRBP-II) mRNA in mouse conceptuses. Levels of CRABP-II mRNA and CRBP-I mRNA were modestly elevated (2.5-fold and 1.5-fold, respectively) in 9-day gestation conceptuses following treatment of dams with 100 mg/kg b.w. of retinoic acid. These levels were elevated by 6 hr following treatment and remained elevated until 48 and 24 hr, respectively. Two other retinoids, etretinate and retinoyl beta-glucuronide, also moderately elevated CRABP-II mRNA and CRBP-I mRNA levels in conceptuses. In contrast, the levels of CRABP-I mRNA in the conceptuses remained unaffected by treatment with any of these three retinoids. These results demonstrate that conceptuses have a limited capacity to elevate the cellular retinoid binding proteins mRNA levels and presumably the synthesis of their respective proteins in response to high, teratogenic doses of retinoic acid. As a result, an excess of free retinoic acid becomes available to the nuclear retinoic acid receptors, which may lead to inappropriate gene expression and eventual maldevelopment. 相似文献

Sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins must quickly and reliably localize specific target sites on DNA. This search process has been well characterized for monomeric proteins, but it remains poorly understood for systems that require assembly into dimers or oligomers at the target site. We present a single-molecule study of the target-search mechanism of protelomerase TelK, a recombinase-like protein that is only active as a dimer. We show that TelK undergoes 1D diffusion on non-target DNA as a monomer, and it immobilizes upon dimerization even in the absence of a DNA target site. We further show that dimeric TelK condenses non-target DNA, forming a tightly bound nucleoprotein complex. Together with theoretical calculations and molecular dynamics simulations, we present a novel target-search model for TelK, which may be generalizable to other dimer and oligomer-active proteins. 相似文献

Biochemical mechanisms of cephaloridine nephrotoxicity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Large doses of the cephalosporin antibiotic, cephaloridine, produce acute proximal tubular necrosis in humans and in laboratory animals. Cephaloridine is actively transported into the proximal tubular cell by an organic anion transport system while transport across the lumenal membrane into tubular fluid appears restricted. High intracellular concentrations of cephaloridine are attained in the proximal tubular cell which are critical to the development of nephrotoxicity. There is substantial evidence indicating that oxidative stress plays a major role in cephaloridine nephrotoxicity. Cephaloridine depletes reduced glutathione, increases oxidized glutathione and induces lipid peroxidation in renal cortical tissue. The molecular mechanisms mediating cephaloridine-induced oxidative stress are not well understood. Inhibition in gluconeogenesis is a relatively early biochemical effect of cephaloridine and is independent of lipid peroxidation. Furthermore, cephaloridine inhibits gluconeogenesis in both target (kidney) and non-target (liver) organs of cephaloridine toxicity. Since glucose is not a major fuel of proximal tubular cells, it is unlikely that cephaloridine-induced tubular necrosis is mediated by the effects of this drug on glucose synthesis. 相似文献

The target reaction in the antiviral action of mouse interferon against vesicular stomatitis virus multiplication 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Treatment of mouse L929 cells with mouse interferon (IFN) lowered the yield of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) in a dose-dependent manner. Accumulation of viral proteins was severely inhibited in IFN-treated cells, whereas cellular protein synthesis was not, indicating that the virus-induced shutoff of cellular protein synthesis was prevented by IFN. In order to identify the major target of IFN action precisely, the effect of IFN treatment on the synthesis of viral RNAs and proteins at various stages during the course of viral replication was examined. Accumulation of viral RNAs late in infection was inhibited, as was the case with viral proteins, but the synthesis of leader RNA and mRNAs early in infection was not significantly inhibited by treatment with a moderate dose of IFN. On the other hand, viral protein synthesis at an early stage of infection was strongly inhibited by IFN. The results indicate that the major target reaction of antiviral action of IFN against VSV multiplication is the translation of viral mRNA. 相似文献

Genetic and biochemical approaches to studies of drug resistance mechanisms in Plasmodium falciparum have raised controversies and contradictions over the past several years. A different and novel chemical approach to this important problem is desirable at this point in time. Recently, the molecular basis of drug resistance in P. falciparum has been associated with mutations in the resistance genes, Chloroquine Resistance Transporter (PfCRT) and the P-glycoprotein homologue (Pgh1). Although not the determinant of chloroquine resistance in P. falciparum, mutations in Pgh1 have important implications for resistance to other antimalarial drugs. Because it is mutations in the aforementioned resistance genes rather than overexpression that has been associated with drug resistance in malaria, studies on mechanisms of drug resistance and its reversal by chemosensitisers should benefit from a chemical approach. Target-oriented organic synthesis of chemosensitisers against proteins implicated in drug resistance in malaria should shed light on mechanism of drug resistance and its reversal in this area. The effect of structurally diverse chemosensitisers should be examined on several putative resistance genes in P. falciparum to deal with antimalarial drug resistance in the broadest sense. Therefore, generating random mutations of these resistance proteins and subsequent screening in search of a specific phenotype followed by a search for mutations and/or chemosensitisers that affect a specific drug resistance pathway might be a viable strategy. This diversity-oriented organic synthesis approach should offer the means to simultaneously identify resistance proteins that can serve as targets for therapeutic intervention (therapeutic target validation) and chemosensitisers that modulate the functions of these proteins (chemical target validation). 相似文献

Monoiodoamphenicol inhibits protein synthesis in exponentially growing Escherichia coli without measurable delay. The inhibition follows first-order kinetics suggesting that one molecule of monoiodoamphenicol is sufficient to inhibit one ribosome. However, only 60% of the ribosomes were susceptible to irreversible inhibition by monoiodoamphenicol. The residual 40% of the rate of protein synthesis after monoiodoamphenicol treatment was not significantly different, when the time of treatment was increased up to six hours or the drug concentration was raised to 1000 μg/ml.Analysis of the monoiodoamphenicol-labeled cell proteins by various uni- and two-dimensional gel electrophoreses and by sucrose gradient centrifugation shows that the cell target of the covalent labeling reaction of monoiodoamphenicol is almost exclusively the ribosome. The amount of label incorporated into ribosomal protein is proportional to the degree of inhibition of protein synthesis by monoiodoamphenicol. However, more than one ribosomal protein reacted. The predominantly labeled proteins are S6, L16 and L24. It is proposed that all three proteins are associated with the receptor site of monoiodoamphenicol. 相似文献
