Lymphocyte-mediated cell lysis represents an important immunologic effector mechanism involved in defense against viral infections, allograft rejection, and tumor surveillance. Moreover, regulatory T cell interactions within the immune system are based, at least in part, on molecular events related to this function. The multiplicity of effector cell populations that can mediate cytotoxicity, the cell/cell interaction determinants which they require for execution of their activities, and molecular events underlying the lytic process itself, as elucidated recently, are the subjects of the present review article. 相似文献

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and natural killer (NK) cells use multiple mechanisms to destroy their target cells. Pore formation resulting in osmotic lysis of the target is one mechanism; the pore-forming protein (perforin) responsible for this activity has been purified. Antigenically and functionally it resembles proteins of the membrane attack complex of complement. The other known mediators of cytotoxicity appear to be closely interrelated. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF), lymphotoxin (LT), and leukalexin are the three members of this group that have been purified, although their mechanisms of action are still unknown. CTLs fragment the DNA of target cells, as do TNF, LT, and leukalexin; this may be one of the mechanisms of action of these mediators. CTLs and NK cells do not self lyse. The basis of this phenomenon is unclear, although recent advances have shed some light on the problem. 相似文献

Summary This paper describes experiments designed to explore interactions between human red blood cell membranes and melittin, the main component of bee venom. We found that melittin binds to human red cell membranes suspended in isotonic NaCl at room temperature, with an apparent dissociation constant of 3×10–8
m and maximum binding capacity of 1.8×107 molecules/cell. When about 1% of the melittin binding sites are occupied, cell lysis can be observed, and progressive, further increases in the fraction of the total sites occupied lead to progressively greater lysis in a graded manner. 50% lysis occurs when there are about 2×106 molecules bound to the cell membrane. For any particular extent of melittin binding, lysis proceeds rapidly during the first few minutes but then slows and stops so that no further lysis occurs after one hour of exposure of cells to melittin. The graded lysis of erythrocytes by melittin is due to complete lysis of some of the cells, since both the density and the hemoglobin content of surviving, intact cells in a suspension that has undergone graded melittin lysis are similar to the values observed in the same cells prior to the addition of melittin. The cells surviving graded melittin lysis have an increased Na and reduced K, proportional to the extent of occupation of the melittin binding sites. Like lysis, Na accumulation and K loss proceed rapidly during the first few minutes of exposure to melittin but then stops so that Na, K and hemoglobin content of the cells remain constant after the first hour. These kinetic characteristics of both lysis and cation movements suggest that melittin modifies the permeability of the red cell membrane only for the first few minutes after the start of the interaction. Direct observation of cells by Nomarsky optics revealed that they crenate, become swollen and lyse within 10 to 30 sec after these changes in morphology are first seen. Taken together, these results are consistent with the idea that melittin produces lysis of human red cells at room temperature by a colloid osmotic mechanism. 相似文献

Cell wall lytic enzymes are valuable tools for the biotechnologist, with many applications in medicine, the food industry,
and agriculture, and for recovering of intracellular products from yeast or bacteria. The diversity of potential applications
has conducted to the development of lytic enzyme systems with specific characteristics, suitable for satisfying the requirements
of each particular application. Since the first time the lytic enzyme of excellence, lysozyme, was discovered, many investigations
have contributed to the understanding of the action mechanisms and other basic aspects of these interesting enzymes. Today,
recombinant production and protein engineering have improved and expanded the area of potential applications. In this review,
some of the recent advances in specific enzyme systems for bacteria and yeast cells rupture and other applications are examined.
Emphasis is focused in biotechnological aspects of these enzymes. 相似文献

Self-disruptive Escherichia coli that produces foreign target protein was developed. E. coli was co-transformed with two vector plasmids, a target gene expression vector and a lysis gene expression vector. The lytic protein was produced after the expression of the target gene, resulting in simplification of the cell disruption process. In this study, the expression of cloned T4 phage gene e or t was used for the disruption of E. coli that produced beta-glucuronidase (GUS) as a model target protein. The expression of gene e did not lead to prompt cell disruption but weakened the cell wall. Resuspension with deionized water facilitated cell lysis, and GUS activity was observed in the resuspended liquid. Expression of gene e at mid logarithmic growth phase was the optimal induction period for GUS production and release. On the other hand, the expression of gene t induced immediate cell lysis, and intracellular GUS was released to the culture medium. Maximum GUS production was obtained when gene t was induced at late logarithmic growth phase. 相似文献

The principles relating the lysis times of fibrin clots to their contents of fibrin, plasminogen and plasminogen-activator were investigated. Mathematical considerations suggested that the square of the lysis time should correlate linearly with the fibrin content, and inversely with the activator and the plasminogen contents of the system. Experimental studies, during which these parameters were independently varied, showed that the predicted relationships were valid for concentrations that gave clot-lysis times in the range normally used for studies of fibrinolysis. 相似文献

Nearly 90 years after the discovery that certain African trypanosornes were killed by normal human serum, we still do not understand how this innate trypanocidal factor works. Biochemical studies have provided us with an unlikely candidate: human high-density lipoprotein (HDL). This trypanosome lytic factor (TLF) from human serum is important since its activity restricts the host range of Trypanosoma brucei brucei, and the expression of this natural killing factor in cattle would represent a novel approach to the control of bovine tryponosomiasis. Here, Steve Hajduk, Kristin Hager and Jeffrey Esko discuss evidence for the TLF being a minor subclass of serum HDL and propose a mechanism for lysis based on the binding, endocytosis and lysosomal targeting of TLF. 相似文献

Development of a simple cell lysis method for recombinant DNA using bacteriophage lambda lysis genes
In this study, we describe the development of a simple and efficient method for cell lysis via the insertion of a bacteriophage lambda lysis gene cluster into the pET22b expression vector in the following order; the T7 promoter, a gene for a target protein intended for production, Sam7 and R. This insertion of R and Sam7 into pET22b exerted no detrimental effects on cellular growth or the production of a target protein. The induction of the T7 promoter did not in itself result in the autolysis of cells in culture but the harvested cells were readily broken by freezing and thawing. We compared the efficiency of the cell lysis technique by freezing and thawing to that observed with sonication, and determined that both methods completely disintegrated the cells and released proteins into the solution. With our modification of pET22b, the lysis of cells became quite simple, efficient, and reliable. This strategy may prove useful for a broad variety of applications, particularly in experiments requiring extensive cell breakage, including library screening and culture condition exploration, in addition to protein purification. 相似文献

pH-dependent lysis of liposomes by adenovirus 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
Purified adenovirus induced a dose-dependent release of the water-soluble markers calcein and carboxyfluorescein from liposomes. Marker release was strongly dependent on pH, and at temperatures below 5 degrees C, the rate of release showed an optimum at a pH of about 6. This pH dependence parallels disruption of endocytic vesicles by adenovirus and the permeabilization that adenovirus induces on the cell surface. There did not seem to be a striking dependence on the lipid composition of the liposomes. Electron microscopy using a negative stain shows liposomes bound to adenovirus. In some cases, the liposomes were still intact, but many liposomes, which were attached to the vertices of the virus, appeared lysed. These data support the notion that adenovirus, which enters the host cell by receptor-mediated endocytosis, gains access to the cytoplasm by a subsequent pH-dependent disruption of the membrane of the endocytic vesicle. 相似文献

The evolution of phage lysis timing 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
Summary The effect of host quantity and host quality on the evolution of phage lysis timing is analysed using marginal value theorem of optimal foraging theory. Both factors have been shown to strongly influence the latent period. A high host density selects for short latent period, which is the same result as previous investigators have found. A good host quality also promotes a short latent period. However, elasticity analysis shows that these two factors exert their influences under different sets of conditions. When host density is low, the host density is more important in determining the length of latent period, whereas when host density is high, the host quality is more important. 相似文献
