In a comparative study of A/J (Gpi-1a) and C57BL/6J (Gpi-1b) mice, we observed that erythrocytes of A/J mice exhibited significantly higher glucose phosphate isomerase (GPI) activity compared to erythrocytes of C57BL/6J mice on a per cell, per gram of protein, or per gram of hemoglobin basis. Higher GPI activity per cell was detected for peripheral blood lymphocytes of A/J compared to C57BL/6J mice. (A/J X C57BL/6J)F1 mice expressed erythrocyte and peripheral blood lymphocyte GPI activities intermediate to those of the parental mouse strains. The GPI activities of spleen lymphocytes from A/J, C57BL/6J, or (A/J X C57BL/6J)F1 mice were not significantly different from each other. The higher activity in the A/J mice could be due to GPI of a higher catalytic rate or to the presence of more GPI molecules. In order to distinguish these two possibilities, GPI was purified to homogeneity from both strains of mice. The specific activities (activity per milligram of protein) of the purified enzymes from the two strains were found to be similar, indicating that GPI from the A/J strain was not a more active enzyme. Antibody to the purified enzymes was prepared and used in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to compare the relative amounts of enzyme molecules in cells of A/J and C57BL/6J mice. Results of the ELISA tests on peripheral blood lymphocytes indicated that A/J mice contain more molecules of GPI per cell and, therefore, have a higher GPI activity than C57BL/6J mice. 相似文献

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) was purified from rat small intestine with 19.2% yield and had a specific activity of 53.8 units per miligram protein. The pH optimum was determined to be 8.1. The purified rat small intestinal G6PD gave one activity, one protein band on native PAGE. The observation of one band on SDS/PAGE with an Mr of 48 kDa and a specific activity lower than expected may suggest the proteolytically affected enzyme or different form of G6PD in the rat small intestine. The activation energy, activation enthalpy, Q10, and optimum temperature from Arrhenius plot for the rat small intestinal G6PD were found to be 8.52 kcal/mol, 7.90 kcal/mol, 1.59, and 38 degrees C, respectively. The Km values for G6P and NADP+ were 70.1 +/- 20.8 and 23.2 +/- 7.6 microM, respectively. Double-reciprocal plots of 1/Vm versus 1/G6P (at constant [NADP+]) and of 1/Vm versus 1/NADP+ at constant [G6P]) intersected at the same point on the 1/Vm axis to give Vm = 53.8 U/mg protein. 相似文献

The fate of corticosterone and 11-deoxycorticosterone in C57BL/6 and BALB/c strains of mice: distribution and oxidative metabolism 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The distribution kinetics and oxidative metabolism of [4-C14] corticosterone (B) and 11-deoxy-[1,2-3H] corticosterone (DOC) were compared in C57BL/6 (B6) and BALB/c (C) mice. Statistically important differences in the distribution of [14C]B and [3H]DOC occurred that were independent of strain, while other differences were strain dependent. Intestinal excretion of metabolites of B and DOC was greater in B6 mice than in C mice, and kidney excretion was greater in C mice than B6 mice. In both C and B6 mice, 3H was cleared from liver faster than 14C, with no strain differences. DOC metabolite levels exceeded B metabolite levels in small intestine and gall bladder of both strains. In most other organs, B metabolites exceeded DOC metabolites. Time average strain differences in accumulation of B and its metabolites favoring B6 were found in pancreas, brain, lung, heart, muscles, adrenals, spleen, mesentery and small intestine. Except for the organs of excretion, no strain differences were found for [3H]DOC metabolites. Sixty minutes after steroid administration, 45% of B metabolites and a third of DOC metabolites were 20-hydroxy-21-oic acids. In the intestine, accumulation of acids derived from either B or DOC was greater for B6 than C strain mice, reflecting the greater proportion of total steroid excreted in the B6 strain. 相似文献

Arylsulfatase B was purified 4500-fold from liver and kidney of C57BL/6J mice. Hepatic and renal arysulfatase B are apparently determined by a single structural locus; however, posttranslational modification introduces inter- and intratissue microheterogeneity. Partially purified enzyme from C57BL/6J, A/J, C3H/HeJ, and SWR/J mice has similar catalytic properties. The 4500-fold-purified arylsulfatase B from SWR/J and C3H/HeJ mice was more thermostable than that from C57BL/6J and A/J mice, strongly suggesting that the thermostability difference reflects an alteration of the primary structure of the enzyme. Thermal stability of arylsulfatase B was pH dependent and markedly influenced by buffer anion. Variation of thermostability did not appear accountable for the observed activity variation among these strains; however, this possibility cannot be rigorously excluded by presently available data. Thirty-five murine strains were found to possess the As-1
a
allele (thermostable enzyme), while As-1
b
was largely restricted to A and C57 strains.This research was supported by PHS Biomedical Sciences Research Support Grant RR-07030. 相似文献

When mice of strains C57BL/6, C3H/He, and BALB/c were immunized with native dextran B512, only a small amount of IgM antibody was produced, but a substantial amount of anti-dextran antibody of IgG class was produced after immunization with a conjugate of dextran T10 and keyhole limpet hemocyanin regardless of the mouse strain used. Isoelectric focusing (IEF) spectra revealed limited heterogeneity of anti-dextran antibody of IgG class with strict consistency in all individual sera from C57BL/6 mice, even after secondary immunization, whereas antibodies from C3H/He and BALB/c mice showed more heterogeneous IEF spectra with some individual variations. Rabbit anti-idiotypic (Id) antibodies were raised by immunization with a subfraction of anti-dextran antibody of IgG class from C57BL/6 mice, which showed major bands focused at around pH 7.7 upon IEF. It was found by using the anti-Id antibodies that virtually all anti-dextran antibody molecules of both IgG and IgM classes from C57BL/6 mice possessed common Id determinants which can be classified into two specificities, one specific for antibody from C57BL/6 mice and the other cross-reactive with antibodies from BALB/c and C3H/He mice. About 80% of the antibody molecules from BALB/c and less than 20% of those from C3H/He mice were positive for the interstrain cross-reactive Id. Both Id determinants seemed to be closely related to the antigen binding sites, or at least to reside in the vicinity of the antigen binding sites of anti-dextran antibody. 相似文献

Elevated levels of erythrocyte hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase associated with allelic variation of murine Hprt 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Murine stocks with wild-derived hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) A alleles (Hprt a) have erythrocyte HPRT activity levels that are approximately 25-fold (Mus musculus castaneus) and 70-fold (Mus spretus) higher than those of laboratory strains of mice with the common Hprt b allele (Mus musculus: C3H/HeHa or C57B1/6). Since the purified HPRT A and B enzymes have substantially similar maximal specific activities (64 and 46 units/mg of protein, respectively), we infer that these HPRT activity levels closely approximate the relative levels of HPRT protein in these cells. Red blood cells of HPRT A and B mice have similar levels of adenine phosphoribosyltransferase activity (APRT; EC 2.4.2.7) and reticulocyte percentages, which suggests that the elevated levels of HPRT in erythrocytes of HPRT A mice are not secondary consequences of abnormal erythroid cell development. The HPRT activity levels in reticulocytes of HPRT B mice are approximately 35-fold higher than the levels in their erythrocytes and approach the HPRT activity levels in reticulocytes of HPRT A mice. Thus, the marked differences in the levels of HPRT protein in erythrocytes of HPRT A and B mice result from differences in the extent to which the HPRT A and B proteins are retained as reticulocytes mature to erythrocytes. The substantial and preferential loss of HPRT B activity from reticulocytes is paralleled by an equivalent loss of HPRT immunoreactive protein (i.e., CRM) from that cell, and we infer that the HPRT B protein is degraded or extruded as reticulocytes mature to erythrocytes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Purification and characterization of a microsomal cytochrome P-450 with high activity of coumarin 7-hydroxylase from mouse liver 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Phenobarbital-induced coumarin 7-hydroxylase is high in DBA/2J and low in C57BL/6N inbred mice; this genetic difference is encoded by the Coh locus on chromosome 7. The aim of this study was to develop an antibody specific for this cytochrome P-450 polymorphism. P-450 fractions, highly specific for phenobarbital-inducible coumarin 7-hydroxylase activity, were purified from DBA/2J and C57BL/6N mouse liver microsomes. Both proteins are 49 kDa, as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Soret peaks of the reduced cytochrome . CO complexes are 451 nm. Reconstituted DBA/2J coumarin 7-hydroxylase activity exhibits a V twice as high as, and a Km value 10-fold less than, the reconstituted C57BL/6N activity. Antibodies were raised in rabbit. By Ouchterlony immunodiffusion, both antibodies show 100% cross-reactivity with DBA/2J and C57BL/6N microsomes and purified antigens. Yet, DBA/2J but not C57BL/6N 7-hydroxylase activity is inhibited by the antibody to DBA/2J P-450. Both DBA/2J and C57BL/6N activities are blocked by the antibody to C57BL/6N P-450. Neither antibody has any effect on liver microsomal d-benzphetamine N-demethylase, ethylmorphine N-demethylase, aminopyrine N-demethylase, 7-ethoxycoumarin O-deethylase, acetanilide 4-hydroxylase, or aryl hydrocarbon (benzo[a]pyrene) hydroxylase activity. The DBA/2J protein most specific for phenobarbital-induced coumarin 7-hydroxylation is designated 'P-450Coh'. Anti-(P-450Coh) precipitates a relatively minor 49-kDa protein from detergent-solubilized microsomes and from in vitro translation of poly(A+)-enriched total RNA of phenobarbital-treated DBA/2J mouse liver, whereas the major phenobarbital-induced P-450 proteins exhibit a molecular mass of about 51 kDa. The immunoprecipitated translation products correspond to a messenger RNA of 2100 +/- 100 nucleotides. 相似文献

The small intestine is main site of exogenous lipid digestion and absorption, and it is important for lipid metabolic homeostasis. Cell death-inducing DNA fragmentation-factor like effector C (CIDEC) is active in lipid metabolism in tissues other than those in the intestine. We developed small intestine-specific CIDEC (SI-CIDEC-/-) knockout C57BL/6J mice by Cre/LoxP recombination to investigate the in vivo effects of intestinal CIDEC on lipid metabolism. Eight-week-old SI-CIDEC-/- mice fed a high-fat diet for 14 weeks had 15% lower body weight, 30% less body fat mass, and 79% lower liver triglycerides (TG) than wild-type (WT) mice. In addition, hepatic steatosis and fatty liver inflammation were less severe in knockout mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD) compared with wild-type mice fed an HFD. SI-CIDEC-/- mice fed an HFD diet had lower serum TG and higher fecal TG and intestinal lipase activity than wild-type mice. Mechanistic studies showed that CIDEC accelerated phosphatidic acid synthesis by interacting with 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate-O-acyltransferase to promote TG accumulation. This study identified a new interacting protein and previously unreported CIDEC mechanisms that revealed its activity in lipid metabolism of the small intestine. 相似文献

Adaptive differentiation of H-2- and Igh-restricted B lymphocyte in tetraparental bone marrow chimera 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Immunization of BALB/c mice with MOPC-104E myeloma protein induced idiotype-specific enhancing B cells that acted on anti-dextran antibody producing B cells. The enhancing cells have the surface phenotype of B cells. With the use of several H-2 or Igh congenic mice, it was found that the cooperation among B cells was controlled by both the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and Igh. The capability to generate enhancing B cell activity was analyzed by using tetraparental bone marrow chimeras. (C57BL/6 X BALB/c)F1 mice, for example, were lethally irradiated and were reconstituted with C57BL/6 and BALB/c bone marrow cells. Nine to 12 wk after the reconstitution, the chimeras were immunized with the myeloma protein and were tested for their enhancing B cell activity. After the removal of C57BL/6 origin cells by treatment with anti-H-2b + complement, residual cells exhibited enhancing B cell activity on BALB.B, as well as BALB/c antidextran antibody response. This indicates that the generation of H-2-restricted, idiotype-specific enhancing B cell activity differentiated adaptively so as to recognize foreign MHC as self under chimeric conditions. On the other hand, splenic B cells treated with anti-H-2d + complement did not enhance the responses of BALB/c or BALB.B. Even in a chimeric environment, the B cells of C57BL/6 origin could not obtain the ability to generate enhancing B cell activity upon immunization of the idiotype. The results described here, taken in conjunction with our previous studies, suggest that the Ig heavy chain gene(s) predominantly control the Igh restriction properties of enhancing B cells, and the capability of MHC recognition by B cells is selected under chimeric conditions. 相似文献

Host allelic variation controls the response to B. anthracis and the disease course of anthrax. Mouse strains with macrophages that are responsive to anthrax lethal toxin (LT) show resistance to infection while mouse strains with LT non-responsive macrophages succumb more readily. B6.CAST.11M mice have a region of chromosome 11 from the CAST/Ei strain (a LT responsive strain) introgressed onto a LT non-responsive C57BL/6J genetic background. Previously, B6.CAST.11M mice were found to exhibit a rapid inflammatory reaction to LT termed the early response phenotype (ERP), and displayed greater resistance to B. anthracis infection compared to C57BL/6J mice. Several ERP features (e.g., bloat, hypothermia, labored breathing, dilated pinnae vessels) suggested vascular involvement. To test this, Evan's blue was used to assess vessel leakage and intravital microscopy was used to monitor microvascular blood flow. Increased vascular leakage was observed in lungs of B6.CAST.11M mice compared to C57BL/6J mice 1 hour after systemic administration of LT. Capillary blood flow was reduced in the small intestine mesentery without concomitant leukocyte emigration following systemic or topical application of LT, the latter suggesting a localized tissue mechanism in this response. Since LT activates the Nlrp1b inflammasome in B6.CAST.11M mice, the roles of inflammasome products, IL-1β and IL-18, were examined. Topical application to the mesentery of IL-1β but not IL-18 revealed pronounced slowing of blood flow in B6.CAST.11M mice that was not present in C57BL/6J mice. A neutralizing anti-IL-1β antibody suppressed the slowing of blood flow induced by LT, indicating a role for IL-1β in the response. Besides allelic differences controlling Nlrp1b inflammasome activation by LT observed previously, evidence presented here suggests that an additional genetic determinant(s) could regulate the vascular response to IL-1β. These results demonstrate that vessel leakage and alterations to blood flow are part of the rapid response in mice resistant to B. anthracis infection. 相似文献

The role for IL-10 in the immunopathogenesis of acute toxoplasmosis following peroral infection was examined in both genetically susceptible C57BL/6 and resistant BALB/c mice. C57BL/6-background IL-10-targeted mutant (IL-10-/-) mice all died in 2 wk after infection with 20 cysts of the ME49 strain, whereas only 20% of control mice succumbed. Histological studies revealed necrosis in the small and large intestines and livers of infected IL-10-/- mice. The necrosis in the small intestine was the most severe pathologic response and was not observed in control mice. Treatment of infected IL-10-/- mice with either anti-CD4 or anti-IFN-gamma mAb prevented intestinal pathology and significantly prolonged time to death. Treatment of these animals with anti-IL-12 mAb also prevented the pathology. Significantly greater amounts of IFN-gamma mRNA were detected in the lamina propria lymphocytes obtained from the small intestine of infected IL-10-/- mice than those from infected control mice. In common with C57BL/6-background IL-10-/- mice, BALB/c-background IL-10-/- mice all died developing intestinal pathology after infection. Control BALB/c mice all survived even after infection with 100 cysts and did not develop the intestinal lesions. Treatment with anti-IFN-gamma mAb prevented the pathology and prolonged time to death of the infected IL-10-/- mice. These results strongly suggest that IL-10 plays a critical role in down-regulating IFN-gamma production in the small intestine following sublethal peroral infection with Toxoplasma gondii and that this down-regulatory effect of IL-10 is required for prevention of development of IFN-gamma-mediated intestinal pathology and mortality in both genetically resistant BALB/c and susceptible C57BL/6 mice. 相似文献

Susceptibility to infection with Brachylaima cribbi was studied in eight strains of inbred mice (AKR, C3H/HeJ, CBA/CaH, BALB/c, DBA/2J, SJL/J, A/J, C57BL/6J) and Swiss albino outbred mice by quantifying faecal egg excretion over the period of the infection. Preliminary experiments indicated that a combination of filtration/sedimentation/diethyl ether sedimentation was the most sensitive and reliable technique for quantification of eggs in faeces. Mice were infected with 13-15 wild-type B. cribbi metacercariae from naturally infected Cernuella virgata and in a second experiment with human-derived B. cribbi from laboratory-reared Helix aspersa. In both experiments C57BL/6J mice were the most susceptible having the highest egg excretion levels and the longest duration of infection. Worm burdens were assessed at 12 wpi for the wild-type and at 9 wpi for the human-derived infections, when the majority of mice were no longer excreting eggs. The numbers of worms recovered from the small intestine were few and there were no significant differences among the inbred or outbred groups of mice. We have found that C57BL/6J mice were the most susceptible to Brachylaima cribbi infection as assessed by excretion of eggs and provide a suitable model for a laboratory life-cycle. 相似文献

Reoviruses are encapsidated double-stranded RNA viruses that cause systemic disease in mice after peroral (p.o.) inoculation and primary replication in the intestine. In this study, we define components of the immune system involved in the clearing of reovirus from the proximal small intestine. The intestines of immunocompetent adult CB17, 129, and C57BL/6 mice were cleared of reovirus serotype 3 clone 9 (T3C9) within 7 days of p.o. inoculation. Antigen-specific lymphocytes were important for the clearance of intestinal infection, since severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice failed to clear T3C9 infection. To define specific immune components required for intestinal clearance, reovirus infection of mice with null mutations in the immunoglobulin M (IgM) transmembrane exon (MuMT; B cell and antibody deficient) or beta 2 microglobulin gene (beta 2-/-; CD8 deficient) was evaluated. beta 2-/- mice cleared reovirus infection with normal kinetics, while MuMT mice showed delayed clearance of T3C9 7 to 11 days after p.o. inoculation. Adoptive transfer of splenic lymphocytes from reovirus-immune CB17 mice inhibited growth of T3C9 in CB17 SCID mouse intestine 11 days after p.o. inoculation. The efficiency of viral clearance by adoptively transferred cells was significantly diminished by depletion of B cells prior to adoptive transfer. Results in SCID and MuMT mice demonstrate an important role for B cells or IgG in clearance of reovirus from the intestines. Polyclonal reovirus-immune rabbit serum, protein A-purified immune IgG, and murine monoclonal IgG2a antibody specific for reovirus outer capsid protein sigma 3 administered intraperitoneally all normalized clearance of reovirus from intestinal tissue in MuMT mice. This result demonstrates an IgA-independent role for IgG in the clearance of intestinal virus infection. Polyclonal reovirus-immune serum also significantly decreased reovirus titers in the intestines of SCID mice, demonstrating a T-cell-independent role for antibody in the clearance of intestinal reovirus infection. B cells and circulating IgG play an important role in the clearance of reovirus from intestines, suggesting that IgG may play a more prominent functional role at mucosal sites of primary viral replication than was previously supposed. 相似文献

Three electrophoretic variants of 3-phosphoglycerate kinase 2 (PGK-2A, PGK-2B, and PGK-2C) were purified from DBA/2J, C3H/HeJ, and C57L/J mice, respectively. PGK-2C exhibits only 2% of the specific activity of PGK-2A and PGK-2B in the reaction leading to the formation of 1,3-diphosphoglycerate. Compared to PGK-2A and PGK-2B, PGK-2C exhibits broader coenzyme specificity and lower Kms for substrate and coenzymes. Incubation at 45C revealed that PGK-2B is more heat stable than either PGK-2A or PGK-2C. Enzyme immunoinactivation and double immunodiffusion studies showed that mice carrying any one of these three PGK-2 alleles have similar amounts of proteins for PGK-1 and PGK-2 in testes. The results of these studies suggest that low PGK-2C activity in C57L/J mice is a result of a structural rather than a regulatory gene mutation. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to explore the role of classical, lectin, and alternative pathways of complement activation in laser-induced choroidal neovascularization (CNV). The classical and alternative pathways were blocked in C57BL/6 mice by small interfering RNAs (siRNA) directed against C1q and factor B, respectively. C4(-/-) mice developed CNV similar to their wild-type controls and inhibition of C1q by siRNA had no effect on the development of CNV. In contrast, CNV was significantly inhibited (p < 0.001) in C5(-/-) mice and C57BL/6 mice treated with factor B siRNA. Inhibition of the alternative pathway by factor B siRNA resulted in decreased levels of membrane attack complex and angiogenic factors-vascular endothelial growth factor and TGF-beta2. Furthermore, factor B was up-regulated in complement sufficient C57BL/6 mice at day 1 postlaser and remained elevated at day 7. Significantly reduced levels of factor H were observed at day 3 in these animals. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that activation of the factor B-dependent alternative pathway, but not the classical or lectin pathways, was essential for the development of CNV in mouse model of laser-induced CNV. Thus, specific blockade of the alternative pathway may represent a therapeutically relevant strategy for the inhibition of CNV. 相似文献

The activities of catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT), monoamine oxidase (MAO), and a methanol forming enzyme were studied in whole brain homogenates and in livers obtained from DBA/2J, C57B1/6J, and F1 hybrid mice. DBA/2J mice are extremely susceptible to audiogenic seizures, whereas C57B1/6J mice are resistant to sound-induced convulsions. C57B1/6J mice were found to have significantly higher brain levels of COMT, while MAO activities were not different in animals of these genotypes. No methanol forming activity was detected in animals of either strain. No differences were found in hepatic activities of either COMT or MAO. Pyrogallol was shown to protect DBA/2J animals against audiogenic seizures. 相似文献
