Vertical ascending electrophoresis of cells with a minimal stabilizing medium

Vertical fractionation of a mixture of fixed horse and human red blood cells layered over a stabilizing support medium was done to give a valid comparison with proposed space experiments. In particular, the effects of sample thickness and concentration on zone migration rate were investigated. Electrophoretic mobilities of horse and human cells calculated from zone migration rates were compatible with those obtained by microelectrophoresis. Complete cell separation was observed when low power and effective cooling were employed.

Gelsolin affects the migratory ability of human colon adenocarcinoma and melanoma cells

AimsFormation of different protrusive structures by migrating cells is driven by actin polymerization at the plasma membrane region. Gelsolin is an actin binding protein controlling the length of actin filaments by its severing and capping activity. The main goal of this study was to determine the effect of gelsolin expression on the migration of human colon adenocarcinoma LS180 and melanoma A375 cells.Main methodsColon adenocarcinoma cell line LS180 was stably transfected with plasmid containing human cytoplasmic gelsolin cDNA tagged to enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP). Melanoma A375 cells were transfected with siRNAs directed against gelsolin. Real-time PCR and Western blotting were used to determine the level of gelsolin. The ability of actin to inhibit DNase I activity was used to quantify monomeric and total actin level and calculate the state of actin polymerization. Fluorescence confocal microscopy was applied to observe gelsolin and vinculin distribution along with actin cytoskeleton organization.Key findingsIncreased level of gelsolin expression leads to its accumulation at the submembranous region of the cell accompanied by distinct changes in the state of actin polymerization and an increase in the migration of LS180 cells. In addition, LS180 cells overexpressing gelsolin form podosome-like structures as indicated by vinculin redistribution and its colocalization with gelsolin and actin. Downregulation of gelsolin expression in melanoma A375 cells significantly reduces their migratory potential.SignificanceOur experimental data indicate that alterations in the expression level of gelsolin and its subcellular distribution may be directly responsible for determining migration capacity of human cancer cells.     

钙通道蛋白Orai1在骨肉瘤细胞转移中的作用研究

目的:骨肉瘤是一种常见的恶性骨肿瘤,恶性程度高,往往在早期就会发生远隔器官的转移,从而导致骨肉瘤的预后非常差。Orai1是一类定位于细胞膜,介导钙离子内流的受体依赖性钙通道蛋白。大量研究发现钙通道蛋白Orai1过表达于多种肿瘤细胞,并对维持肿瘤细胞粘附、侵袭、迁移等恶性表型有非常重要的作用。然而,钙通道蛋白Orai1是否参与了骨肉瘤的转移过程,目前未见相关报道。本研究的目的是探究钙通道蛋白Orai1是否在骨肉瘤转移过程中的发挥作用。方法:利用合成的靶向Orai1的小干扰RNA(Orai1 si RNA)片段,转染至人骨肉瘤细胞系Saos-2细胞。在Saos-2细胞中抑制Orai1的表达。采用细胞黏附实验、细胞划痕实验和细胞Transwell实验检测骨肉瘤细胞的黏附、迁移及侵袭等肿瘤细胞转移能力;Western-blot实验检测Saos-2细胞的中黏着斑激酶(FAK)和桩蛋白(Paxillin)的表达水平和磷酸化水平。结果:靶向Orai1 si RNA瞬时转染至骨肉瘤细胞系Saos-2细胞后,Saos-2细胞中Orai1蛋白表达水平和m RNA转录水平均显著下降。并且,在Saos-2细胞中抑制Orai1表达后,Saos-2细胞的黏附能力、迁移能力、及侵袭能力均显著下降。进一步研究发现,在Saos-2细胞中抑制Orai1表达后,Saos-2细胞的FAK和Paxillin磷酸化水平明显下降。结论:Orai1可以促进骨肉瘤细胞的黏附、迁移和侵袭,增加黏着斑的形成,从而促进骨肉瘤的转移。因此,深入研究钙通道蛋白Orai1调控骨肉瘤转移的分子机制,可为骨肉瘤转移的治疗提供新的新方向和新策略。     

High-mobility group box 1 accelerates distraction osteogenesis healing via the recruitment of endogenous stem/progenitor cells

Background aimsWhile distraction osteogenesis (DO) achieves substantial bone regeneration, prolonged fixation may lead to infections. Existing stem cell and physical therapies have limitations, requiring the development of novel therapeutic approaches. Here, we evaluated high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) as a novel therapeutic target for DO treatment.MethodsMicro-computed tomography (Micro-CT) analysis and histological staining of samples obtained from tibial DO model mice was performed. Transwell migration, wound healing, and proliferation assays were also performed on cultured human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and human umbilival vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Tube formation assay was performed on HUVECs, whereas osteogenic differentiation assay was performed on hMSCs.ResultsMicro-CT analysis and histological staining of mouse samples revealed that HMGB1 promotes bone regeneration during DO via the recruitment of PDGFRα and Sca-1 positve (PαS⁺) cells and endothelial progenitor cells. Furthermore, HMGB1 accelerated angiogenesis during DO, promoted the migration and osteogenic differentiation of hMSCs as well as the proliferation, migration and angiogenesis of HUVECs in vitro.ConclusionsOur findings suggest that HMGB1 has a positive influence on endogenous stem/progenitor cells, representing a novel therapeutic target for the acceleration of DO-driven bone regeneration.     

Exploring Synchronicity in the Heart Rates of Familiar and Unfamiliar Pairs of Horses and Humans Undertaking an In-Hand Task

ABSTRACT

Physiological responses that occur in horses and humans during their interactions, on the ground and during ridden work, have been investigated in a number of studies with some conflicting results. These suggest that in some situations emotional state may be transferred from humans to horses and that there is the potential for the heart rates of horse–human pairs to become synchronized during ridden work. Here we explore the effect of familiarity on the physiological responses of horse–human pairs completing a task in-hand, using heart rate as an indicator for emotional state. We investigated differences in heart rate response between familiar and unfamiliar pairings and the possibility of heart rate synchronization within each pair. Complete sets of horse and human heart rate data were available for 17 horses. We found a significant order affect, with higher horse heart rates seen the first time around the course regardless of whether a familiar or unfamiliar handler was leading (Wilcoxon test: Z=–2.67, p<0.05). However, despite this, the horses’ mean heart rates for each course were significantly higher with the unfamiliar handler than with the familiar handler (Wilcoxon test: Z=–4.46, p<0.001). In contrast, human heart rates were higher when paired with a familiar horse compared with an unfamiliar horse (Mann-Whitney U test: Z=–5.08, p<0.001). Significant correlations between horse and human heart rates were seen in three familiar pairings and two unfamiliar pairings. Our findings indicate that the relationship between horse and human heart rates during interactions is not straightforward or consistent between horses and humans, and is likely to depend on a number of factors such as experience of the test situation. Although the lower heart rates seen in horses being led by their familiar handler suggest that they are more relaxed with someone they know, this could not be said for the human partner.     

基于JAK2/STAT3信号通路探讨白藜芦醇对骨肉瘤MG-63细胞凋亡及迁移的影响

摘要 目的：研究白藜芦醇(RES)通过蛋白酪氨酸激酶2/信号转导子与激活子3（JAK2/STAT3）信号通路对人骨肉瘤体外细胞株MG-63细胞凋亡、侵袭和迁移的影响。方法：体外培养MG-63细胞,以不同浓度的RES作用于MG-63细胞。Annexin V-FITC/PI双染流式细胞术检测不同时间和不同浓度的RES对MG-63细胞凋亡的影响。划痕实验和Transwell实验检测不同时间和不同浓度的RES对MG-63细胞侵袭和迁移能力的影响。免疫印迹实验检测不同时间和不同浓度的RES对MG-63细胞磷酸化蛋白酪氨酸激酶2（p-JAK2）、磷酸化信号转导子与激活子3（p-STAT3）、凋亡相关蛋白B淋巴细胞瘤-2（Bcl-2）、Bcl-2家族促凋亡蛋白（Bax）及基质金属蛋白酶（MMP）-2、MMP-9表达的影响。结果：RES浓度越高,时间越久,MG-63细胞凋亡率越高（P<0.05）。RES浓度越高,MG-63细胞迁移和侵袭能力越弱(P<0.05)。RES处理MG-63细胞后其p-JAK2、p-STAT3、Bcl-2以及MMP-2、MMP-9的表达明显降低,而Bax蛋白表达明显升高,且p-JAK2、p-STAT3、Bax、Bcl-2以及MMP-2、MMP-9的表达水平变化具有RES浓度依赖性（P<0.05）。结论：RES可能通过调控JAK2/STAT3信号通路促使人骨肉瘤MG-63细胞凋亡,并抑制MG-63细胞侵袭和迁移。     

Aspalathin-rich green Aspalathus linearis extract suppresses migration and invasion of human castration-resistant prostate cancer cells via inhibition of YAP signaling

BackgroundMore than 80% of advanced prostate cancer (PCa) cases have bone metastasis, with a 5-year survival rate of 25%. Previously, we reported that GRT, a standardized, pharmaceutical-grade aspalathin-rich extract (12.78 g aspalathin/100 g extract), prepared from green rooibos produced from the leaves and fine stems of Aspalathus linearis, inhibits the proliferation of PCa cells, meriting this investigation to determine if GRT can suppress the migration and invasion of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) cells.PurposeIn the present study, we investigated whether GRT extract can interfere with the migration and invasion of human CRPC cells.MethodsTranswell assays were used to explore the effects of GRT on the migration and invasion of CRPC cells. Micro-Western Array (MWA) and Western blot analysis were carried out to unravel the underlying molecular mechanism(s).ResultsTreatment with 25–100 μg/ml GRT suppressed the migration and invasion of LNCaP C4-2B and 22Rv1 CRPC cells. MWA and Western blot analysis indicated that GRT treatment suppressed the protein level of yes-associated protein (YAP), macrophage stimulating 1 protein (MST1), phospho-MST1/phospho-MST2 T183/T180, and paxillin, but increased the abundance of E-cadherin. Over-expression of YAP rescued the suppressive effects of GRT on migration and invasion of CRPC cells. Treatment with the major flavonoid of GRT — the C-glucosyl dihydrochalcone, aspalathin — at a concentration of 75–100 μg/ml also reduced the migration and invasion of CRPC cells, and the inhibition was partially rescued by YAP over-expression.ConclusionsGRT treatment suppresses the migration and invasion of CRPC cells via inhibition of YAP signaling and paxillin.     

Horse reactions to human attitudes and behavior

Abstract

To assess the effects of human confidence levels on horse behavior, 40 veterinary students led the same mare around a fixed course. Multivariate analysis of human attitudes and behavior and horse behavior showed that a positive attitude towards horses related to infrequent ear movement in that horse (accounting for 46% of variance); positive attitude, together with low lead tension, related to a horse's forward ear position (47%); loose lead tension related to both a horse's low resistance (66%) and low head position (11%). Human attitudes towards at least one horse is shown to be associated with changes in human behavior, which leads to altered behavior in that horse.

SLPI facilitates cell migration by regulating lamellipodia/ruffles and desmosomes,in which Galectin4 plays an important role

ABSTRACT

To elucidate the underlying mechanism of secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI)-induced cell migration, we compared SLPI-deleted human gingival carcinoma Ca9-22 (ΔSLPI) cells and original (wild-type: wt) Ca9-22 cells using several microscopic imaging methods and gene expression analysis. Our results indicated reduced migration of ΔSLPI cells compared to wtCa9-22 cells. The lamellipodia/dorsal ruffles were smaller and moved slower in ΔSLPI cells compared to wtCa9-22 cells. Furthermore, well-developed intermediate filament bundles were observed at the desmosome junction of ΔSLPI cells. In addition, Galectin4 was strongly expressed in ΔSLPI cells, and its forced expression suppressed migration of wtCa9-22 cells. Taken together, SLPI facilitates cell migration by regulating lamellipodia/ruffles and desmosomes, in which Galectin4 plays an important role.     

Intra-bone marrow transplantation of human CD34+ cells into NOD/LtSz-scid IL-2rγnull mice permits multilineage engraftment without previous irradiation

Background aimsNon-irradiated immunodeficient recipients provide the best physiologic setting for revealing hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) functions after xenotransplantion. An approach that efficiently permits the detection of human hematopoietic repopulating cells in non-irradiated recipients is therefore highly desired.MethodsWe compared side-by-side the ability to reconstitute hematopoiesis via intra-bone marrow transplantation (IBMT) in three commonly used mouse strains avoiding previous irradiation.ResultsNon-irradiated NOD/SCID and NOD/SCID (β2m?/? mouse strains prevent engraftment even after IBMT. In contrast, combining the robustness of the NOD/SCID IL-2Rγ?/? recipient with the sensitivity of IBMT facilitates the detection, without previous host irradiation, of human SCID-repopulating cells 10 weeks after transplantation. The level of chimerism averaged 14% and multilineage engraftment (lymphoid dominant) was observed consistently in all mice. Analysis of injected and non-injected bones, spleen and peripheral blood demonstrated that engrafting cells were capable of in vivo migration and expansion.ConclusionsCombining the robustness of the NOD/SCID IL-2Rγ?/? mouse strain with the sensitivity of IBMT strongly facilitates long-term multilineage engraftment and migration for human CD34⁺ cells without the need for previous irradiation.     

Claudin-2 knockdown decreases matrix metalloproteinase-9 activity and cell migration via suppression of nuclear Sp1 in A549 cells

AimsClaudin expression is altered in lung cancer, but the pathophysiological role of claudin is not well understood. We examined the effect of claudin-2 expression on cell migration using human adenocarcinoma A549 cells.Main methodsThe mRNA level was measured by real time polymerase chain reaction. To knockdown claudin-2 expression, we made the cells expressing doxycycline-inducible claudin-2 shRNA vector. The protein level was examined by Western blotting. Cell migration was measured by wound-healing assay. The enzymatic activity of MMP-9 was assessed by gelatin zymography.Key findingsIn A549 cells, claudin-2 expression was higher than in normal lung tissue. Claudin-2 knockdown did not affect the expression of other junctional proteins including claudin-1, occludin and E-cadherin. Claudin-2 knockdown decreased cell migration concomitant with a decrease in the mRNA level and enzymatic activity of MMP-9. The expression level of Sp1 in the nuclei was decreased by claudin-2 knockdown. In contrast, the expression levels of c-Fos, c-Jun and NF-kB p65 in the nuclei were not changed by claudin-2 knockdown. The knockdown of Sp1 expression by siRNA decreased cell migration, and the mRNA expression, enzymatic activity, and promoter activity of MMP-9.SignificanceClaudin-2 may increase the mRNA level and enzymatic activity of MMP-9 mediated by the elevation of nuclear distribution of Sp1, resulting in the up-regulation of A549 cell migration.
