There is a tight interaction of the bone and the immune system. However, little is known about the relevance of the complement system, an important part of innate immunity and a crucial trigger for inflammation. The aim of this study was, therefore, to investigate the presence and function of complement in bone cells including osteoblasts, mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), and osteoclasts. qRT-PCR and immunostaining revealed that the central complement receptors C3aR and C5aR, complement C3 and C5, and membrane-bound regulatory proteins CD46, CD55, and CD59 were expressed in human MSC, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts. Furthermore, osteoblasts and particularly osteoclasts were able to activate complement by cleaving C5 to its active form C5a as measured by ELISA. Both C3a and C5a alone were unable to trigger the release of inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8 from osteoblasts. However, co-stimulation with the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β significantly induced IL-6 and IL-8 expression as well as the expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) indicating that complement may modulate the inflammatory response of osteoblastic cells in a pro-inflammatory environment as well as osteoblast-osteoclast interaction. While C3a and C5a did not affect osteogenic differentiation, osteoclastogenesis was significantly induced even in the absence of RANKL and macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) suggesting that complement could directly regulate osteoclast formation. It can therefore be proposed that complement may enhance the inflammatory response of osteoblasts and increase osteoclast formation, particularly in a pro-inflammatory environment, for example, during bone healing or in inflammatory bone disorders. 相似文献

Rab GTPases control membrane traffic and receptor-mediated endocytosis. Within this context, Rab5a plays an important role in the spatial regulation of intracellular transport and signal transduction processes. Here, we report a previously uncharacterized role for Rab5a in the regulation of T-cell motility. We show that Rab5a physically associates with protein kinase Cϵ (PKCϵ) in migrating T-cells. After stimulation of T-cells through the integrin LFA-1 or the chemokine receptor CXCR4, Rab5a is phosphorylated on an N-terminal Thr-7 site by PKCϵ. Both Rab5a and PKCϵ dynamically interact at the centrosomal region of migrating cells, and PKCϵ-mediated phosphorylation on Thr-7 regulates Rab5a trafficking to the cell leading edge. Furthermore, we demonstrate that Rab5a Thr-7 phosphorylation is functionally necessary for Rac1 activation, actin rearrangement, and T-cell motility. We present a novel mechanism by which a PKCϵ-Rab5a-Rac1 axis regulates cytoskeleton remodeling and T-cell migration, both of which are central for the adaptive immune response. 相似文献

通过阐明C5a、calpain和Atg5相互作用,为开展新的研究寻找方向.中性粒细胞凋亡控制炎症反应及其强度,多种疾病和中性粒细胞凋亡失调有关,但其发生机制尚未阐明.C5a为补体片段,有多种功能,如诱导中性粒细胞趋化、呼吸爆发、增强吞噬、颗粒酶释放和延迟凋亡.已知calpain涉及中性粒细胞功能及凋亡调节并对该凋亡发生具有特异性.不同刺激因素可通过不同路径调节不同calpain亚型的活性. 已有报道C5a可以通过调节calpain亚型活性而调节中性粒细胞的趋化反应.另外,自噬是真核细胞中广泛存在的生物过程,具有细胞保护作用,Atg5对于自噬体形成必不可少.Calpain可裂解Atg5为24 ku tAtg5,使其失去形成自噬体的功能并介导凋亡.Atg5参与了自噬和凋亡的转换. 相似文献

Purpose
To investigate the use of liposomal irinotecan (Irinophore C™) plus or minus 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) for the treatment of colorectal cancer.Experimental Design
The effect of irinotecan (IRI) and/or 5-FU exposure times on cytotoxicity was assessed in vitro against HT-29 or LS174T human colon carcinoma cells. The pharmacokinetics and biodistribution of Irinophore C™ (IrC™) and 5-FU, administered alone or in combination, were compared in vivo. A subcutaneous model of HT-29 human colorectal cancer in Rag2-M mice was utilized to assess the efficacy of IrC™ alone, and in combination with 5-FU.Results
The cytotoxicity of IRI and 5-FU were strongly dependent on exposure time. Synergistic interactions were observed following prolonged exposure to IRI/5-FU combinations. Pharmacokinetics/biodistribution studies demonstrated that the 5-FU elimination rate was decreased significantly when 5-FU was co-administered intravenously with IrC™, versus alone. Significant decreases in 5-FU elimination were also observed in plasma, with an associated increase of 5-FU in some tissues when 5-FU was given by intraperitoneal injection and IrC™ was given intravenously. The elimination of IrC™ was not significantly different when administered alone or in combination with 5-FU. Therapeutic studies demonstrated that single agent IrC™ was significantly more effective than the combination of IRI/5-FU; surprisingly, IrC™/5-FU combinations were no more effective than IrC™ alone. The administration of combinations of 5-FU (16 mg/kg) and IrC™ (60 mg IRI/kg) showed increased toxicity when compared to IrC™ alone. Treatment with IrC™ alone (60 mg IRI/kg) delayed the time required for a 5-fold increase in initial tumor volume to day 49, compared to day 23 for controls. When IrC™ (40 mg IRI/kg) was used in combination with 5-FU (16 mg/kg), the time to increase tumor volume 5-fold was 43 days, which was comparable to that achieved when using IrC™ alone (40 mg IRI/kg).Conclusions
Single agent IrC™ was well tolerated and has significant therapeutic potential. IrC™ may be a suitable replacement for IRI treatment, but its use with free 5-FU is complicated by IrC™-engendered changes in 5-FU pharmacokinetics/biodistribution which are associated with increased toxicity when using the combination. 相似文献13.
Is salivary histatin 5 a metallopeptide? 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Histatins are small histidine-rich salivary polypeptides which exhibit antimicrobial activity against Candida albicans. This antimicrobial activity has been ascribed in part to a high content of basic amino acids. However, unlike most other antimicrobial proteins histatins have a high content of histidine, tyrosine and acidic amino acids known to participate in metal ion coordination. This study was conducted to test whether histatin 5 could bind zinc and copper which are metals present in salivary secretions and whole saliva. Physical binding parameters and spectral properties of zinc- and copper-histatin complexes were investigated in order to obtain direct evidence of these interactions. A spectrophotometric competition assay using the metallochromic indicator murexide showed that histatin 5 dissociates metal indicator complexes containing zinc or copper ions. Absorption spectra of histatin 5 at increasing copper chloride concentrations resulted in higher absorbance in the 230-280 nm wavelength range and this spectral change was saturated at a peptide:metal molar ratio of approx. 1:1. A corresponding band was observed in the visible range of the spectrum with a maximum and molar extinction coefficient corresponding to that of copper binding to an ATCUN motif. Quantitative assessment of zinc and copper binding to histatin 5 using isothermal titration calorimetry revealed at least one high affinity site for each metal, with binding constants of 1.2x10(5) and 2.6x10(7) M(-1), respectively. These results indicate that histatin 5 exhibits metallopeptide-like properties. The precise biological significance of this has not yet been established but histatins may contribute significantly to salivary metal binding capacity. 相似文献

Inflammation is a key factor in a number of neurodegenerative diseases including systemic lupus erythematosus. The complement system is an important mechanism in initiating and amplifying inflammation. Our recent studies demonstrate that C5a, a protein fragment generated during complement activation could alter the blood-brain barrier integrity, and thereby disturb the brain microenvironment. To understand the mechanism by which this occurs, we examined the effects of C5a on apoptosis, translocation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κb) and the expression of Iκbα, MAPK, CREB and TJ protein, zona occludens (ZO-1) in mouse brain endothelial cells. Apoptosis was examined by DNA laddering and caspase 3 activity and the distribution of the ZO-1 and the p65 subunit of NF-κB were determined by immunofluorescence. Inhibition of CD88 reduced translocation of NF-κb into the nucleus, altered ZO-1 at the interfaces of neighboring cells, decreased caspase 3 activity and prevented apoptosis in these cells. Our results indicate that signaling through CD88 regulates the blood-brain barrier in a NF-κb-dependent manner. These studies suggest that the C5a receptor, CD88 is a promising therapeutic target that will reduce NF-κb-signaling cascades in inflammatory settings. 相似文献

Variability of physiological parameters of unacclimatized males during a two—hour cold stress of 5°C
The metabolic and temperature responses of 11 male Caucasians to a 2-hr exposure to 5 ± 1°C, 70 ± 2% RH were compared with control data obtained in an ambient environment of 28 ± 1°C, 45 ± 2% RH. The heat production increased during the cold exposure attaining an approximately stable level during the final 30 min. The group variability in response to the cold was greatest during the first 30 min and declined for the remainder of the cold exposure. All skin temperatures approached a stable value during the final 30 min of cold exposure. The correlation between mean skin temperature and thigh temperature was significant (p < 0.001) and the use of thigh temperature as an approximate mean skin temperature was suggested. The calculation of tissue conductance with or without the inclusion of heat exchanges due to changes in body heat content and respiratory losses was in agreement only during the final 30 min of cold exposure, thus indicating a stage of physiological equilibrium. All measured parameters except the toe and finger temperatures approached minimum variability of response during the final 30 min of cold exposure.

Zusammenfassung Die Reaktionen des Stoffwechsels und der Hauttemperatur von 11 männlichen Angehörigen der weissen Rasse während einer 2-stündigen Exponierung bei 5 ± 1°C, 50–70 % RF wurden mit den Kontrollwerten bei 28 ± 1°C und 45 ± 2% RF verglichen. Während der Kälteexponierung stieg die Wärmebildung an und erreichte wie die Hauttemperatur in den letzten 30 Min ein ungefähr konstantes Niveau. Die Gruppenvariabilität war in den ersten 30 Min am grössten und liess dann nach. Die Korrelation zwischen mittlerer Hauttemperatur und Oberschenkeltemperatur war hochsignifikant (p < 0,001). Es wird vorgeschlagen letztere als mittlere Hauttemperatur zu verwenden. Die Berechnung der Gewebeleitfähigkeit mit oder ohne Einbeziehung des Wärmeaustausches als Folge von Änderungen des Wärmegehaltes des Körpers und Wärmeverlustes bei der Atmung stimmte nur während der letzten 30 Min. Alle gemessenen Parameter ausser der Zehen- und Fingertemperatur näherten sich während der letzten 30 Min der Kälteexponierung einer minimalen Variabilität. Dies weist auf ein physiologisches Gleichgewicht hin.
Resume On a comparé le métabolisme et la température cutanée de 11 personnes de la race blanche caucasienne exposées durant 2 heures à une température de 5 ± 1°C et à une humidité relative de 70 ± 2% aux mêmes valeurs obtenues par 28 ± 1°C et 45 ± 2%. La production de chaleur a augmenté durant l'exposition au froid pour atteindre un niveau relativement stable durant les 30 dernières minutes. La variabilité du groupe quant à la réaction au froid fut très importante durant les 30 premières minutes. Elle a notablement diminué le reste du temps. Toutes les températures cutanées se sont stabilisées durant les 30 dernières minutes de l'exposition au froid. La corrélation entre la température de la peau et celle de la cuisse fut hautement significative (p < 0,001) et l'on propose d'utiliser cette dernière température comme température cutanée moyenne. Le calcul de la conductibilité des tissus en y incluant ou excluant les échanges de chaleur dus aux variations thermiques du corps ou les pertes imputables à la respiration n'est exact que pour les 30 dernières minutes. Tous les paramètres mesurés, à l'exception des températures des doigts et des orteils tendent vers un minimum de variabilité durant ce même laps de temps. Ceci indique qu'un état d'équilibre physiologique est alors atteint.

Purpose
Inflammation may contribute to the pathogenesis of specific cardiovascular diseases, but it is uncertain if mediators released during the inflammatory process will affect the continued efficacy of drugs used to treat clinical signs of the cardiac disease. We investigated the role of the complement 5a receptor 1 (C5aR1/CD88) in the cardiac response to inflammation or atenolol, and the effect of C5aR1 deletion in control of baseline heart rate in an anesthetized mouse model.Methods
An initial study showed that PMX53, an antagonist of C5aR1 in normal C57BL6/J (wild type, WT) mice reduced heart rate (HR) and appeared to have a protective effect on the heart following induced sepsis. C5aR1 knockout (CD88-/-) mice had a lower HR than wild type mice, even during sham surgery. A model to assess heart rate variability (HRV) in anesthetized mice was developed to assess the effects of inhibiting the β1-adrenoreceptor (β1-AR) in a randomized crossover study design.Results
HR and LF Norm were constitutively lower and SDNN and HF Norm constitutively higher in the CD88-/- compared with WT mice (P< 0.001 for all outcomes). Administration of atenolol (2.5 mg/kg) reduced the HR and increased HRV (P< 0.05, respectively) in the wild type but not in the CD88-/- mice. There was no shift of the sympathovagal balance post-atenolol in either strains of mice (P> 0.05), except for the reduced LF/HF (Lower frequency/High frequency) ratio (P< 0.05) at 60 min post-atenolol, suggesting increased parasympathetic tone of the heart due to the effect of atenolol administration. The HR of the WT mice were lower post atenolol compared to the CD88-/- mice (P = 0.001) but the HRV of CD88-/- mice were significantly increased (P< 0.05), compared with WT mice.Conclusion
Knockout of the C5aR1 attenuated the effect of β1-AR in the heart, suggesting an association between the β1-AR and C5aR1, although further investigation is required to determine if this is a direct or causal association. 相似文献19.

水稻OsRab5a基因在根、茎、叶、根茎结合部和颖片及愈伤组织中均有表达;OsRab5a蛋白主要参与细胞内吞过程的早期膜泡运输,GFP—OsRab5a主要存在于细胞膜上和早期内吞小体中,而GFP—OsRab5aCA则大多存在于细胞膜上。OsRab5a RNA干涉载体转化水稻愈伤组织后,导致愈伤组织在分化过程中死亡,OsRab5a基因的表达略受细胞分裂素的诱导,在分化过程中表达增强,从而推测OsRab5a可能参与激素的信号转导而在愈伤分化过程中发挥重要作用。 相似文献

Complex chromosomal rearrangements are very rare chromosomal abnormalities. Individuals with a complex chromosomal rearrangement can be phenotypically normal or display a clinical abnormality. It is believed that these abnormalities are due to either microdeletions or microduplications at the translocation breakpoints or as a result of disruption of the genes located in the breakpoints. In this study we describe a 2-year-old child with mental retardation and developmental delay in whom a de novo apparently balanced exceptional complex chromosomal rearrangement was found through conventional cytogenetic analysis. Using both cytogenetic and FISH analysis, the patient's karyotype was found to be: 46,XY,der(5)t(5;7)(p15.1;7q34),t(5;8)(q13.1;8q24.1)dn. A large, clinically significant deletion which encompassed 887.69 kb was detected at the 5q12.1–5q12.3 (chr5:62.886.523–63.774.210) genomic region using array-CGH. This deleted region includes the HTR1A and RNF180 genes. This is the first report of an individual with an apparently balanced complex chromosomal rearrangement in conjunction with a microdeletion at 5q12.1–5q12.3 in which there are both mental-motor retardation and dysmorphia. 相似文献
