The presence and particle association of various hydrolytic enzymes in Naegleria fowleri has been studied in whole cell extracts of trophozoites in an effort to establish authentic markers for surface membrane and lysosomal components. Evidence from the experiments reported here indicates that in N. fowleri a) acid proteinase, N-acetylglucosaminidase, and acid phosphatase are associated with cytoplasmic granules closely resembling lysosomes; b) 5'-nucleotidase is associated with the surface membrane, probably on the external surface; c) aspartate aminotransferase is associated with mitochondria; d) a-D-glucosidase and an aminopeptidase have bimodal distributions, activity being associated with both the surface membrane and lysosomal particles. 相似文献

Caveolin is the principal component of caveolae in vivo. In addition to a structural role, it is believed to play a scaffolding function to organize and inactivate signaling molecules that are concentrated on the cytoplasmic surface of caveolar membranes. The large GTPase dynamin has been shown to mediate the scission of caveolae from the plasma membrane, although it is unclear if dynamin interacts directly with caveolin or via accessory proteins. Therefore, the goal of this study was to test whether dynamin associates with caveolae via a direct binding to the caveolin 1 (Cav1) protein. Immunoelectron microscopy of lung endothelium or a cultured hepatocyte cell line stained with antibodies for Dyn2 and Cav1 shows that these proteins co-localize to caveolae. To further define this interaction biochemically, in vitro experiments were performed using glutathione-S-transferase (GST)-Dyn2 and GST-Cav1 fusion proteins, which demonstrated a direct interaction between these proteins. This interaction appears to be mediated by the proline-arginine-rich domain (PRD) of Dyn2, as a GST-PRD fragment binds Cav1 while GST-Dyn2DeltaPRD does not. Further, in vitro binding studies using two Dyn2 spliced forms and Cav1 peptides immobilized on paper identify specific domains of Cav1 that bind Dyn2. Interestingly, these Cav1-binding domains differ markedly between two spliced variant forms of Dyn2. In support of these distinctive physical interactions, we find that the different Dyn2 forms, when expressed as GTPase-defective mutants, exert markedly different inhibitory effects on caveolae internalization, as assayed by cholera toxin uptake. These studies provide the first evidence for a direct interaction between dynamin and the caveolin coat, and demonstrate a selectivity of one Dyn2 form toward the caveolae-mediated endocytosis. 相似文献

Nitrate tolerance developed after persistent nitroglycerin (GTN) exposure limits its clinical utility. Previously, we have shown that the vasodilatory action of GTN is dependent on endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS/NOS3) activity. Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) is known to interact with NOS3 on the cytoplasmic side of cholesterol-enriched plasma membrane microdomains (caveolae) and to inhibit NOS3 activity. Loss of Cav-1 expression results in NOS3 hyperactivation and uncoupling, converting NOS3 into a source of superoxide radicals, peroxynitrite, and oxidative stress. Therefore, we hypothesized that nitrate tolerance induced by persistent GTN treatment results from NOS3 dysfunction and vascular toxicity. Exposure to GTN for 48–72 h resulted in nitrosation and depletion (>50%) of Cav-1, NOS3 uncoupling as measured by an increase in peroxynitrite production (>100%), and endothelial toxicity in cultured cells. In the Cav-1 deficient mice, NOS3 dysfunction was accompanied by GTN tolerance (>50% dilation inhibition at low GTN concentrations). In conclusion, GTN tolerance results from Cav-1 modification and depletion by GTN that causes persistent NOS3 activation and uncoupling, preventing it from participating in GTN-medicated vasodilation. 相似文献

Subcellular Distribution of UDP-Galactose:Ceramide Galactosyltransferase in Rat Brain Oligodendroglia 总被引:1,自引:3,他引:1
Oligodendrocytes isolated from 18-19-day-old rat brain were homogenized in 0.32 M sucrose. The homogenate was centrifuged at 100,000 g for 50 min in a gradient containing 0.8, 1.05, and 1.3 M sucrose. Three discrete bands were obtained at the interfaces 0.32-0.8 (F1), 0.8-1.05 (F2), and 1.05-1.3 M (F3). The distribution of UDP-galactose:ceramide galactosyltransferase (CgalT) activity in each fraction was measured using liposomes containing normal fatty acid-containing ceramides (NFA-CgalT activity) or 2-hydroxy fatty acid-containing ceramides (HFA-CgalT activity). Although detection of both CgalT activities was possible in all fractions, HFA-CgalT activity was enriched in F1 and F2 fractions, which also showed an enrichment of Golgi and endoplasmic reticulum markers, respectively. It is interesting that NFA-CgalT activity was significantly enriched in the F2 fraction. These results suggest that hydroxylated and nonhydroxylated galactocerebrosides may be synthesized at different intracellular locations. 相似文献

CD26 is a widely distributed 110-kDa cell surface glycoprotein with an important role in T-cell costimulation. We demonstrated previously that CD26 binds to caveolin-1 in antigen-presenting cells, and following exogenous CD26 stimulation, Tollip and IRAK-1 disengage from caveolin-1 in antigen-presenting cells. IRAK-1 is then subsequently phosphorylated to up-regulate CD86 expression, resulting in subsequent T-cell proliferation. However, it is unclear whether caveolin-1 is a costimulatory ligand for CD26 in T-cells. Using soluble caveolin-1-Fc fusion protein, we now show that caveolin-1 is the costimulatory ligand for CD26, and that ligation of CD26 by caveolin-1 induces T-cell proliferation and NF-kappaB activation in a T-cell receptor/CD3-dependent manner. We also demonstrated that the cytoplasmic tail of CD26 interacts with CARMA1 in T-cells, resulting in signaling events that lead to NF-kappaB activation. Ligation of CD26 by caveolin-1 recruits a complex consisting of CD26, CARMA1, Bcl10, and IkappaB kinase to lipid rafts. Taken together, our findings provide novel insights into the regulation of T-cell costimulation via the CD26 molecule. 相似文献

Caveolae are plasma membrane invaginations that function as important regulators of numerous cellular processes, including signal transduction, cholesterol trafficking, and endocytosis. Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) constitutes the main structural protein of caveolae membrane. Here, we report an in vivo increase in the number of apoptotic cells in the thymus and spleen of Cav-1 deficient mice, following whole-body γ-irradiation. We demonstrate that this increase in apoptotic cells is not due to increased apoptosis in lymphocytes per se, which normally do not express Cav-1, but rather to the decreased phagocytic clearance of apoptotic cells by macrophages, which do express Cav-1. Utilizing in vitro phagocytosis assays of both apoptotic thymocytes and Escherichia coli K-12 BioParticles, we demonstrate that the loss of Cav-1 decreases the phagocytic ability of thioglycollate-elicited peritoneal macrophages. We suggest that impaired macrophage phagocytosis in Cav-1 knockout mice could have implications for altered innate immunity against pathogens, the regulation of inflammatory responses, and the development of autoimmune disease. 相似文献

Caveolin-1 (cav-1), a 22-kDa transmembrane scaffolding protein, is the principal structural component of caveolae. Cav-1 regulates critical cell functions including proliferation, apoptosis, cell differentiation, and transcytosis via diverse signaling pathways. Abundant in almost every cell type in the lung, including type I epithelial cells, endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, fibroblasts, macrophages, and neutrophils, cav-1 plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury (ALI). ALI and its severe form, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), are responsible for significant morbidity and mortality in intensive care units, despite improvement in ventilation strategies. The pathogenesis of ARDS is still poorly understood, and therapeutic options remain limited. In this article, we summarize recent data regarding the regulation and function of cav-1 in lung biology and pathology, in particular as it relates to ALI. We further discuss the potential molecular and cellular mechanisms by which cav-1 expression contributes to ALI. Investigating the cellular functions of cav-1 may provide new insights for understanding the pathogenesis of ALI and provide novel targets for therapeutic interventions in the future. 相似文献

mCLCA1/2 are members of the CLCA protein family that are widely expressed in secretory epithelia, but their putative physiological role still awaits elucidation. mCLCA1/2 have 95% amino acid identity, but currently no specific antibody is available. We have generated a rabbit polyclonal antibody (pAb849) against aa 424–443 of mCLCA1/2. In HEK293 cells transfected with mCLCA1; pAb849 detected two specific protein bands at ∼125 kDa and 90 kDa, representing full-length precursor and N-terminal cleavage product, respectively. pAb849 also immunoprecipitated mCLCA1 and labeled the protein by immunostaining. But pAb849 crossreacted with mCLCA3/4/6 despite ≤80% amino acid identity of the antigenic epitope. We therefore investigated the cellular localization of mCLCA1/2 in epithelial tissues, which do not express mCLCA3/4/6 (salivary glands, pancreas, kidney) or express mCLCA3/6 with known localization (mucus cells of stomach and small intestine; villi of small intestine). mCLCA1/2 mRNA and protein expression were found in both parotid and submandibular gland, and immunohistochemistry revealed labeling in parotid acinar cells, in the luminal membrane of parotid duct cells, and in the duct cells of submandibular gland. In exocrine pancreas, mCLCA1/2 expression was restricted to acinar zymogen granule membranes, as assessed by immunoblotting, immunohistochemistry, and preembedding immunoperoxidase and immunogold electron microscopy. Moreover, mCLCA1/2 immunolabeling was present in luminal membranes of gastric parietal cells and small intestinal crypt enterocytes, whereas in the kidney, mCLCA1/2 protein was localized to proximal and distal tubules. The apical membrane localization and overall distribution pattern of mCLCA1/2 favor a transmembrane protein implicated in transepithelial ion transport and protein secretion.

SYNOPSIS. The activity and distribution of 7 enzymes in Ochromonas malhamensis were studied. Subcellular organelles were separated by centrifugation at 648,000 g min to precipitate the larger particles; the resulting supernatant was centrifuged at 5,560,000 g min to separate the microsomal fraction from the supernatant. Sixty-four percent of the cytochrome oxidase (1.9.3.1 ferrocytochrome c:oxygen oxidoreductase, 81% of the catalase (1.11.1.6 hydrogen-peroxide: hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase) and 70% of the urate oxidase (1.7.3.3 urate:oxygen oxidoreductase) activity was associated with the larger particles, altho only 20% of the total protein was found in this fraction. Three acid hydrolases, cathepsin (3.4.4.9 cathepsin C, acid phosphatase (3.1.3.2 orthophosphoric monoesterphosphohydrolase) and acid ribonuclease (2.7.7.17 ribonucleate nucleotido-2′-transferase) were found mostly in the supernate (50-60%, yet their latency and their similar subcellular distribution indicated the presence of lysosomes. After 2.5 hr centrifugation in a sucrose density gradient (ρ= 1.08–1.25, the acid hydrolases showed a broad distribution which differed greatly from cytochrome oxidase associated with mitochondria. Catalase, which could not be separated from cytochrome oxidase by centrifuging on this gradient, had a different distribution after centrifugation on a kinetic gradient. Urate oxidase had a similar distribution to catalase and both these enzymes were latent, indicating the presence of peroxisomes. 相似文献

Caveolin-1: an ambiguous partner in cell signalling and cancer 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Caveolae are small plasma membrane invaginations that have been implicated in a variety of functions including transcytosis, potocytosis and cholesterol transport and signal transduction. The major protein component of this compartment is a family of proteins called caveolins. Experimental data obtained in knockout mice have provided unequivocal evidence for a requirement of caveolins to generate morphologically detectable caveolae structures. However, expression of caveolins is not sufficient per seto assure the presence of these structures. With respect to other roles attributed to caveolins in the regulation of cellular function, insights are even less clear. Here we will consider, more specifically, the data concerning the ambiguous roles ascribed to caveolin-1 in signal transduction and cancer. In particular, evidence indicating that caveolin-1 function is cell context dependent will be discussed. 相似文献

Fas-mediated apoptosis is a crucial cellular event. Fas, the Fas-associated death domain, and caspase 8 form the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC). Activated caspase 8 mediates the extrinsic pathways and cleaves cytosolic BID. Truncated BID (tBID) translocates to the mitochondria, facilitates the release of cytochrome c, and activates the intrinsic pathways. However, the mechanism causing these DISC components to aggregate and form the complex remains unclear. We found that Cav-1 regulated Fas signaling and mediated the communication between extrinsic and intrinsic pathways. Shortly after hyperoxia (4 h), the colocalization and interaction of Cav-1 and Fas increased, followed by Fas multimer and DISC formation. Deletion of Cav-1 (Cav-1-/-) disrupted DISC formation. Further, Cav-1 interacted with BID. Mutation of Cav-1 Y14 tyrosine to phenylalanine (Y14F) disrupted the hyperoxia-induced interaction between BID and Cav-1 and subsequently yielded a decreased level of tBID and resistance to hyperoxia-induced apoptosis. The reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger N-acetylcysteine decreased the Cav-1-Fas interaction. Deletion of glutathione peroxidase-2 using siRNA aggravated the BID-Cav-1 interaction and tBID formation. Taken together, these results indicate that Cav-1 regulates hyperoxia/ROS-induced apoptosis through interactions with Fas and BID, probably via Fas palmitoylation and Cav-1 Y14 phosphorylation, respectively. 相似文献

Migration is a complex process in which cells move in a given direction either in response to changes in the extracellular environment or as a consequence of an intrinsic propensity for directional movement. Migration plays key roles in many physiological and pathological processes, including development, angiogenesis, tissue regeneration and metastasis. An important role in migration is played by caveolin-1 and caveolae. Caveolae compartmentalize intracellular signalling pathways to orchestrate cell migration. Caveolin-1 presents a polarized distribution in migrating cells and is linked to the cytoskeleton, and changes in its expression modulate migration. Although there are some discrepancies regarding the regulatory effect of caveolin-1, most studies show that it promotes cell movement and polarity. The importance of caveolin-1 has recently been reinforced by studies with Cav1(-/-) cells, which indicate that it establishes polarity during directional migration by coordinating Src kinase and Rho GTPase signalling. 相似文献

SorLA/LR11 regulates processing of amyloid precursor protein via interaction with adaptors GGA and PACS-1 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

SorLA has been recognized as a novel sorting receptor that regulates trafficking and processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) and that represents a significant risk factor for sporadic Alzheimer disease. Here, we investigated the cellular mechanisms that control intracellular trafficking of sorLA and their relevance for APP processing. We demonstrate that sorLA acts as a retention factor for APP in trans-Golgi compartments/trans-Golgi network, preventing release of the precursor into regular processing pathways. Proper localization and activity of sorLA are dependent on functional interaction with GGA and PACS-1, adaptor proteins involved in protein transport to and from the trans-Golgi network. Aberrant targeting of sorLA to the recycling compartment or the plasma membrane causes faulty APP trafficking and imbalance in non-amyloidogenic and amyloidogenic processing fates. Thus, our findings identified altered routing of sorLA as a major cellular mechanism contributing to abnormal APP processing and enhanced amyloid beta-peptide formation. 相似文献
