Female middle age is characterized by a decline in skeletal muscle mass and performance, predisposing women to sarcopenia, functional limitations, and metabolic dysfunction as they age. Menopausal loss of ovarian function leading to low circulating level of 17β‐estradiol has been suggested as a contributing factor to aging‐related muscle deterioration. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown and thus far androgens have been considered as a major anabolic hormone for skeletal muscle. We utilized muscle samples from 24 pre‐ and postmenopausal women to establish proteome‐wide profiles, associated with the difference in age (30–34 years old vs. 54–62 years old), menopausal status (premenopausal vs. postmenopausal), and use of hormone replacement therapy (HRT; user vs. nonuser). None of the premenopausal women used hormonal medication while the postmenopausal women were monozygotic (MZ) cotwin pairs of whom the other sister was current HRT user or the other had never used HRT. Label‐free proteomic analyses resulted in the quantification of 797 muscle proteins of which 145 proteins were for the first time associated with female aging using proteomics. Furthermore, we identified 17β‐estradiol as a potential upstream regulator of the observed differences in muscle energy pathways. These findings pinpoint the underlying molecular mechanisms of the metabolic dysfunction accruing upon menopause, thus having implications for understanding the complex functional interactions between female reproductive hormones and health. 相似文献

The allelic variant of apolipoprotein (Apo) E4 is a known risk factor for the development of most common late onset form of
Alzheimer’s disease (AD). As aging is associated with reduced circulating level of gonadal steroid hormones, hormone replacement
therapies have been used for the possible treatment of AD. Both estrogen and testosterone have beneficial effects on brain
due to interaction with apoE, but the underlying mechanism is still not clear. In this article, we report the effects of gonadectomy
and hormone supplementation on apoE protein level in male and female mouse cerebral cortex during normal aging. We could not
get any effect of gonadectomy and estradiol or testosterone treatment in adult and old mice of either sex. This suggests that
during normal aging apoE protein level is not affected due to steroid hormone withdrawal or supplementation in the mouse cerebral
cortex. 相似文献

This study investigated the direct roles of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in kidney aging using transgenic mice overexpressing glutathione peroxidase‐1 (GPX1 TG). We demonstrated that kidneys in old mice recapitulated kidneys in elderly humans and were characterized by glomerulosclerosis, tubular atrophy, interstitial fibrosis, and loss of cortical mass. Scavenging H2O2 by GPX1 TG significantly reduced mitochondrial and total cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitigated oxidative damage, thus improving these pathologies. The potential mechanisms by which ROS are increased in the aged kidney include a decreased abundance of an anti‐aging hormone, Klotho, in kidney tissue, and decreased expression of nuclear respiratory factor 2 (Nrf2), a master regulator of the stress response. Decreased Klotho or Nrf2 was not improved in the kidneys of old GPX1 TG mice, even though mitochondrial morphology was better preserved. Using laser capture microdissection followed by label‐free shotgun proteomics analysis, we show that the glomerular proteome in old mice was characterized by decreased abundance of cytoskeletal proteins (critical for maintaining normal glomerular function) and heat shock proteins, leading to increased accumulation of apolipoprotein E and inflammatory molecules. Targeted proteomic analysis of kidney tubules from old mice showed decreased abundance of fatty acid oxidation enzymes and antioxidant proteins, as well as increased abundance of glycolytic enzymes and molecular chaperones. GPX1 TG partially attenuated the remodeling of glomerular and tubule proteomes in aged kidneys. In summary, mitochondria from GPX1 TG mice are protected and kidney aging is ameliorated via its antioxidant activities, independent and downstream of Nrf2 or Klotho signaling. 相似文献

Growth hormone (GH) secretion and serum insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) decline with aging. This study addresses the role played by the hypothalamic regulators in the aging GH decline and investigates the mechanisms through which growth hormone secretagogues (GHS) activate GH secretion in the aging rats. Two groups of male Wistar rats were studied: young-adult (3 mo) and old (24 mo). Hypothalamic growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) mRNA and immunoreactive (IR) GHRH dramatically decreased (P < 0.01 and P < 0.001) in the old rats, as did median eminence IR-GHRH. Decreases of hypothalamic IR-somatostatin (SS; P < 0.001) and SS mRNA (P < 0.01), and median eminence IR-SS were found in old rats as were GHS receptor and IGF-I mRNA (P < 0.01 and P < 0.05). Hypothalamic IGF-I receptor mRNA and protein were unmodified. Both young and old pituitary cells, cultured alone or cocultured with fetal hypothalamic cells, responded to ghrelin. Only in the presence of fetal hypothalamic cells did ghrelin elevate the age-related decrease of GH secretion to within normal adult range. In old rats, growth hormone-releasing peptide-6 returned the levels of GH and IGF-I secretion and liver IGF-I mRNA, and partially restored the lower pituitary IR-GH and GH mRNA levels to those of young untreated rats. These results suggest that the aging GH decline may result from decreased GHRH function rather than from increased SS action. The reduction of hypothalamic GHS-R gene expression might impair the action of ghrelin on GH release. The role of IGF-I is not altered. The aging GH/IGF-I axis decline could be rejuvenated by GHS treatment. 相似文献

During aging, the male Japanese quail exhibits a loss of fertility, increased morphological abnormalities in the testes, and a higher incidence of Sertoli cell tumors. Although there is a coincident loss of reproductive behavior, plasma androgen levels remain high until testicular regression occurs in association with senescence. The purpose of this study was to compare mean specific binding of chicken luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) as a measure of testicular receptors during identified stages during aging. Males were categorized according to age (young = 9 months, middle aged = 24 months, or old = 36+ months) and sexual behavior (active or inactive). Testicular samples were collected immediately after perfusion with 4% paraformaldehyde from the following groups: young active (n = 8), young photoregressed (n = 5), young photoregressed plus testosterone implant (n = 4), middle-aged active (n = 8), middle-aged inactive (n = 4), old inactive (n = 5), and old inactive plus testosterone implant (n = 6). A crude plasma membrane fraction was prepared from the testes of each bird and an aliquot deriving from 10 mg of testicular tissue was used for binding assay. Specific binding of labeled LH or FSH was expressed as percentage of total radioactive hormone. Results showed significant (P < 0.05) age-related decreases in both FSH and LH receptor numbers. The highest FSH binding was found in young and middle-aged active males, with low binding in old inactive males. Testicular LH binding decreased during aging, with a sharp decrease in middle-aged males, which was similar to old males. Testosterone implants weakly stimulated FSH and LH binding in old males. Both LH and FSH binding decreased in photoregressed young males. However, testosterone implants stimulated increased LH binding, but did not affect FSH binding in young photoregressed males. These results provide evidence for separate regulation of testicular LH and FSH receptors, with testosterone stimulation of LH receptor, but not FSH receptor number in young males. However, during aging there appears to be a loss of this response, potentially because of the reduced efficacy of testosterone stimulation, thereby implying a diminished capacity for response with aging. 相似文献

Middle-aged and old left ventricles (LVs) are structurally and functionally very similar. Compared to a young LV, both show increased wall thickness and increased cavity size, with preserved cardiac function. However, when a stressor such as myocardial infarction occurs, striking differences are revealed between young and old LVs and there is a marked reduction in survival rates for the old group. The objective of this study was to investigate the proteomic basis of age-related changes in the LV of male mice in order to identify proteins that are differentially expressed between middle-aged and old groups and to gain mechanistic insight into effects of aging on the unstressed heart. Young (3 months old; n = 6), middle-aged (MA; 15 months old; n = 6), and old (23 months old; n = 5) LVs were examined by echocardiography, homogenized, and separated into soluble and insoluble protein fractions using differential extraction. We found that the LV mass-to-tibia ratio increased from 6.4 +/- 0.2 mg/mm in young to 11.0 +/- 0.6 and 10.1 +/- 0.7 mg/mm in MA and old, respectively (both p < 0.05 vs young), which was caused by increases in both LV wall thickness and volume. Using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, we detected age-related alterations in the levels of 73 proteins (all p < 0.05). Among these proteins were mortalin, peroxiredoxin 3, epoxide hydrolase, and the superoxide dismutases SOD-1 (Cu/ZnSOD) and SOD-2 (MnSOD), which have been previously associated with aging and/or cardiovascular disease. Together, these results reveal proteomic changes that occur in the LV with age. The proteins identified here may be useful markers of cardiac aging and may help in deducing mechanisms to explain the inability of the old heart to withstand challenge. 相似文献

Using radioactively labelled cytosol proteins as substrates we were able to exclude the possible accumulation of any specific inhibitor for the lysosomal proteases in rat liver cytosol during the aging process. There were also no gross changes in the molecular weight patterns of these proteins during the aging process. The percentage of more hydrophobic proteins seems to be identical in both the "old" and "young" cytosol proteins. From immunological experiments we suppose a qualitative change in the composition of rat liver cytosol proteins or of their properties during the aging process. 相似文献

Evidence that Ames dwarf mice age differently from their normal siblings in behavioral and learning and memory parameters 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
There is strong evidence supporting the deleterious effects of aging on learning and memory and behavioral parameters in normal mice. However, little is known about the Ames dwarf mouse, which has a Prop-1 gene mutation resulting in deficiencies in growth hormone, thyroid-stimulating hormone, and prolactin. These mice are much smaller and live significantly longer than their normal siblings. Using the elevated plus-maze, locomotor activity meters, and an inhibitory avoidance learning task, the present study compared Ames dwarf mice to their normal siblings. Results showed that Ames dwarf mice did not experience an age-related decline in locomotor activity when compared to their young counterparts. Furthermore, old dwarf mice did not differ from the young groups in inhibitory avoidance retention, while old normal animals performed more poorly than both young groups on this test. Elevated plus-maze behavior did not differ in the old normal versus dwarf groups, but the old groups did differ from the young. Results indicate that both old groups experienced a significant decline in anxiety with age. Taken together, these results indicate that multiple hormone deficiencies resulting from a lack of primary pituitary function have beneficial effects on cognitive function and locomotor behavior in advanced age. In fact, the Ames dwarf mouse may provide a model for studies of delayed mental as well as physical aging. 相似文献

Energy storing tendons, such as the human Achilles and equine superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT), are highly prone to injury, the incidence of which increases with aging. The cellular and molecular mechanisms that result in increased injury in aged tendons are not well established but are thought to result in altered matrix turnover. However, little attempt has been made to fully characterize the tendon proteome nor determine how the abundance of specific tendon proteins changes with aging and/or injury. The aim of this study was, therefore, to assess the protein profile of normal SDFTs from young and old horses using label-free relative quantification to identify differentially abundant proteins and peptide fragments between age groups. The protein profile of injured SDFTs from young and old horses was also assessed. The results demonstrate distinct proteomic profiles in young and old tendon, with alterations in the levels of proteins involved in matrix organization and regulation of cell tension. Furthermore, we identified several new peptide fragments (neopeptides) present in aged tendons, suggesting that there are age-specific cleavage patterns within the SDFT. Proteomic profile also differed between young and old injured tendon, with a greater number of neopeptides identified in young injured tendon. This study has increased the knowledge of molecular events associated with tendon aging and injury, suggesting that maintenance and repair of tendon tissue may be reduced in aged individuals and may help to explain why the risk of injury increases with aging. 相似文献

Protein oxidation and proteolysis during aging and oxidative stress 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Previous studies in this laboratory have shown that glutamine synthetase (GS) and other key metabolic enzymes are inactivated by metal-catalyzed oxidation reactions in vitro. Oxidative inactivation renders these proteins highly susceptible to proteolysis, especially to a class of newly identified alkaline proteases which exhibit little or no activity against the native enzymes. These studies have suggested that oxidative inactivation may be an important marking step for intracellular protein degradation. Because many of the enzymes which have been shown to accumulate as inactive or less active forms during aging are readily inactivated by metal-catalyzed oxidation reactions in vitro, we have investigated the possible relationship between protein oxidation and proteolysis during aging and oxidative stress in vivo. Oxidized proteins accumulate in hepatocytes of rats exposed to 100% oxygen during the first 48 h of oxygen treatment. In the interval between 48 and 54 h the levels of oxidized proteins decline sharply. The specific activities of at least two liver enzymes, glutamine synthetase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH), decrease during the 54-h experiment. GS and G-6-PDH specific immunological cross-reactivity remains high during the first 48 h of oxygen treatment and then declines in the interval between 48 and 54 h. During this same interval the levels of alkaline proteases which degrade oxidized proteins increase, indicating that these activities are induced or activated in response to oxidative stress and subsequently degrade the proteins which have become oxidized during the initial phase of oxygen treatment. Oxidized proteins accumulate progressively during aging in hepatocytes from rats 3 to 26 months old, with the largest incremental increase between 20 and 26 months. The increase in protein oxidation is correlated with a loss of specific activity of GS and G-6-PDH without a concomitant loss of immunological cross-reactivity. The levels of alkaline proteases which degrade oxidized proteins in hepatocytes from 26-month-old rats is only 20% that of 3-month-old rats, suggesting that oxidized proteins accumulate in hepatocytes from old rats, in part, because the proteases which degrade them are deficient or defective. moreover, when old rats are subjected to treatment with 100% oxygen, the levels of oxidized proteins continue to increase and the alkaline protease activity remains low, indicating that these protease activities are not increased in response to oxidative stress in old rats. 相似文献

Aging: hypothalamic catecholamines, neuroendocrine-immune interactions, and dietary restriction 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The decline in hypothalamic catecholamine (CA) activity with age in rats leads to a reduction in hormone secretion by the neuroendocrine system, and results in decreased reproductive function, a reduction in protein synthesis, development of numerous mammary and pituitary tumors, and probably contributes to the decline in immune function. Some of these same effects can be produced in young rats by administration of drugs that lower hypothalamic CA activity. Administration of drugs to old rats that elevate hypothalamic CA activity can inhibit or reverse the reproductive decline, increase protein synthesis, induce regression of mammary and pituitary tumors, decrease disease incidence, probably elevate immune function, and significantly extend the life span. Therefore, hypothalamic CA have a critical role in the development of aging processes. When young or mature rats or mice are fed a caloric restricted diet, aging processes are inhibited and life span is significantly lengthened. These effects are believed to be mediated primarily via the neuroendocrine system, since calorie restriction results in decreased secretion of hypothalamic, pituitary, and target gland hormones. The decline in hormone secretion leads to a reduction in most body functions, lowers whole body metabolism, and reduces gene expression, and thereby results in a decreased rate of aging of body tissues and longer life. These effects of caloric restriction can be counteracted by administration of hormones, providing evidence that the favorable effects on aging are mediated by reducing hormone secretion. 相似文献

HMG proteins were extracted with 5% PCA or 0.35 M NaCl from whole tissue, nuclei or chromatin of the liver of young (19 weeks) and old (118 weeks) male rats. They were resolved on acetic acid-urea polyacrylamide gel. The electrophoretic patterns of the major HMG proteins 1, 2, 14 and 17 of both ages are similar. The in vitro synthesis of HMG 1 and 2 decreases, but that of HMG 14 and 17 increases considerably in the liver of old rats. The synthesis of different HMG proteins is modulated differentially by spermine, butyrate, dexamethasone and 3-aminobenzamide in the liver of young and old rats. These findings suggest that HMG proteins contribute to alterations in the organization of chromatin and expression of genes during aging. 相似文献

Robust growth hormone (GH) secretion in aged female rats co-administered GH-releasing hexapeptide (GHRP-6) and GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Aging is associated with a blunted growth hormone (GH) secretory response to GH-releasing hormone (GHRH), in vivo. The objective of the present study was to assess the effects of aging on the GH secretory response to GH-releasing hexapeptide (GHRP-6), a synthetic GH secretagogue. GHRP-6 (30 micrograms/kg) was administered alone or in combination with GHRH (2 micrograms/kg) to anesthetized female Fischer 344 rats, 3 or 19 months of age. The peptides were co-administered to determine the effect of aging upon the potentiating effect of GHRP-6 on GHRH activity. The increase in plasma GH as a function of time following administration of GHRP-6 was lower (p less than 0.001) in old rats than in young rats; whereas the increase in plasma GH secretion as a function of time following co-administration of GHRP-6 and GHRH was higher (p less than 0.001) in old rats than in young rats (mean Cmax = 8539 +/- 790.6 micrograms/l vs. 2970 +/- 866 micrograms/l, respectively; p less than 0.01). Since pituitary GH concentrations in old rats were lower than in young rats (257.0 +/- 59.8 micrograms/mg wet wt. vs. 639.7 +/- 149.2 micrograms/mg wet wt., respectively; p less than 0.03), the results suggested that GH functional reserve in old female rats was not linked to pituitary GH concentration. The differential responses of old rats to individually administered and co-administered GHRP-6 are important because they demonstrate that robust and immediate GH secretion can occur in old rats that are appropriately stimulated. The data further suggest that the cellular processes subserving GH secretion are intact in old rats, and that age-related decrements in GH secretion result from inadequate stimulation, rather than to maladaptive changes in the mechanism of GH release. 相似文献

The modern concept of causality of diseases emphasizes the study of natural defense functions of the organism and possibilities of influencing them, which will lead to effective prevention of these diseases. A great deal of information has been obtained on the system growth hormone (GH)/insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I, which is of quite fundamental importance for the integrity of the organism. An imbalance of the system may be the cause of diseases of the neonatal period, as well as diseases associated with aging. In old age, the synthesis of the crucial peptide system, IGF-I, declines as well as the sensitivity of tissues to this hormone. At the same time the changes in the expression of IGF-binding proteins (IGFBP) occur. Systemic growth factors are present in measurable concentrations in the circulation, they are, however, taken up or synthesized by some tissues, where they act as local cellular regulators. IGF-I is produced by many tissues, including bones under the control of estrogens, growth hormone and the parathyroid hormone. A decline of bone IGF-I in the cortical portion of bones is one of the many mechanisms leading to the development of involutional osteoporosis. Correlation studies, which have provided evidence of a relationship between the IGF system and the building of peak bone mass and its subsequent loss contributed to the understanding of the pathogenesis of this disease. It may be foreseen that the results of intervention studies focused on the effects of the recombinant IGF-I will also influence therapeutic and preventive approaches. Modern antiresorption pharmacotherapy stabilizes or enhances bone density and reduces the risk of fractures. The addition of effective anabolics might increase the effectiveness of treatment by shifting the remodeling equilibrium in favor of formative processes. Because both recombinant GH and IGF-I have certain therapeutic limitations, it is considered to utilize substances which either stimulate endogenous IGF-I production directly in the bone or modulate synthesis and distribution of binding proteins for the peptide. Further new findings related to physiology and pathophysiology of this peptide will contribute to designing new strategies in the prevention of osteoporosis and other serious diseases of old age, such as diabetes, neoplasias or cardiovascular diseases. 相似文献

Impact of reduced insulin-like growth factor-1/insulin signaling on aging in mammals: novel findings 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Bartke A 《Aging cell》2008,7(3):285-290
Growth hormone deficiency or resistance resulting from spontaneous or experimentally produced mutations in laboratory mice delay aging and increase lifespan. Alterations in insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and insulin signaling emerged as likely mechanisms linking growth hormone and aging, and increased longevity was reported in mice with selective deletion of IGF-1 receptor in all tissues or insulin receptor in fat. Recent studies in mice with reduced IGF-1 levels or deletion of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A, a protease that cleaves one of the IGF-1 binding proteins, strongly support the role of IGF-1 in the control of longevity. Reports of increased lifespan in mice with deletion of insulin receptor substrate (IRS) 1, reduced expression of IRS2, or selective deletion of IRS2 in the brain specifically implicate the IRS-PI3K-Akt-Foxo signaling pathway (which is shared by IGF-1 and insulin) in the control of aging. These important novel findings also strengthen the evidence for evolutionary conservation of mechanisms regulating lifespan in worms, insects and mammals. 相似文献

Growth hormone (GH) secretion is decreased during aging in humans and in rodents. This decrease may be due to increased hypothalamic somatostatin release, which is inhibited by cholinergic agonists, or to decreased secretion of GHRH. Alpha-glyceryl-phosphorylcholine (alpha-GFC) is a putative acetylcholine precursor used in the treatment of cognitive disorders in the elderly. In order to learn what effect alpha-GFC had on GH secretion, GH-release hormone (GHRH) was given to young and old human volunteers, with or without the addition of alpha-GFC. GH secretion was greater in the younger subjects than in the old individuals, and both groups had a greater GH response to the GHRH+alpha-GFC than to GHRH alone. The potentiating effect of alpha-GFC on GH secretion was more pronounced in the elderly subjects. These findings confirm the observation that aged individuals respond less well to GHRH than younger subjects, and provides further evidence that increased cholinergic tone enhances GH release. 相似文献

Chronic caloric restriction (CR) and rapamycin inhibit the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling, thereby regulating metabolism and suppressing protein synthesis. Caloric restriction or rapamycin extends murine lifespan and ameliorates many aging‐associated disorders; however, the beneficial effects of shorter treatment on cardiac aging are not as well understood. Using a recently developed deuterated‐leucine labeling method, we investigated the effect of short‐term (10 weeks) CR or rapamycin on the proteomics turnover and remodeling of the aging mouse heart. Functionally, we observed that short‐term CR and rapamycin both reversed the pre‐existing age‐dependent cardiac hypertrophy and diastolic dysfunction. There was no significant change in the cardiac global proteome (823 proteins) turnover with age, with a median half‐life 9.1 days in the 5‐month‐old hearts and 8.8 days in the 27‐month‐old hearts. However, proteome half‐lives of old hearts significantly increased after short‐term CR (30%) or rapamycin (12%). This was accompanied by attenuation of age‐dependent protein oxidative damage and ubiquitination. Quantitative proteomics and pathway analysis revealed an age‐dependent decreased abundance of proteins involved in mitochondrial function, electron transport chain, citric acid cycle, and fatty acid metabolism as well as increased abundance of proteins involved in glycolysis and oxidative stress response. This age‐dependent cardiac proteome remodeling was significantly reversed by short‐term CR or rapamycin, demonstrating a concordance with the beneficial effect on cardiac physiology. The metabolic shift induced by rapamycin was confirmed by metabolomic analysis. 相似文献

Selective alteration at the growth-hormone- releasing-hormone nerve terminals during aging in GHRH-green fluorescent protein mice 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Growth hormone (GH) secretion decreases spontaneously during lifespan, and the resulting GH deficiency participates in aging-related morbidity. This deficiency appears to involve a defect in the activity of hypothalamic GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) neurons. Here, we investigated this hypothesis, as well as the underlying mechanisms, in identified GHRH neurons from adult ( approximately 13 weeks old) and aged ( approximately 100 weeks old) transgenic GHRH-green fluorescent protein mice, using morphological, biochemical and electrophysiological methods. Surprisingly, the spontaneous action potential frequency was similar in adult and aged GHRH neurons studied in brain slices. This was explained by a lack of change in the intrinsic excitability, and simultaneous increases in both stimulatory glutamatergic- and inhibitory GABAergic-synaptic currents of aged GHRH neurons. Aging did not decrease GHRH and enhanced green fluorescent protein contents, GHRH neuronal number or GHRH-fibre distribution, but we found a striking enlargement of GHRH-positive axons, suggesting neuropeptide accumulation. Unlike in adults, autophagic vacuoles were evident in aged GHRH-axonal profiles using electron microscopy. Thus, GHRH neurons are involved in aging of the GH axis. Aging had a subtle effect at the nerve terminal level in GHRH neurons, contrasting with the view that neuronal aging is accompanied by more widespread damage. 相似文献

Aging of the human skin is a complex process that consists of chronological and extrinsic aging, the latter caused mainly by exposure to ultraviolet radiation (photoaging). Here we present studies in which we have used proteomic profiling technologies and two-dimensional (2D) PAGE database resources to identify proteins whose expression is deregulated in the epidermis of the elderly. Fresh punch biopsies from the forearm of 20 pairs of young and old donors (21-30 and 75-92 years old, respectively) were dissected to yield an epidermal fraction that consisted mainly of differentiated cells. One- to two-mm3 epidermal pieces were labeled with [35S]methionine for 18 h, lysed, and subjected to 2D PAGE (isoelectric focusing and non-equilibrium pH gradient electrophoresis) and phosphorimage autoradiography. Proteins were identified by matching the gels with the master 2D gel image of human keratinocytes (proteomics.cancer.dk). In selected cases 2D PAGE immunoblotting and/or mass spectrometry confirmed the identity. Quantitative analysis of 172 well focused and abundant polypeptides showed that the level of most proteins (148) remains unaffected by the aging process. Twenty-two proteins were consistently deregulated by a factor of 1.5 or more across the 20 sample pairs. Among these we identified a group of six polypeptides (Mx-A, manganese-superoxide dismutase, tryptophanyl-tRNA synthetase, the p85beta subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and proteasomal proteins PA28-alpha and SSP 0107) that is induced by interferon-gamma in primary human keratinocytes and that represents a specific protein signature for the effect of this cytokine. Changes in the expression of the eukaryotic initiation factor 5A, NM23 H2, cyclophilin A, HSP60, annexin I, and plasminogen activator inhibitor 2 were also observed. Two proteins exhibited irregular behavior from individual to individual. Besides arguing for a role of interferon-gamma in the aging process, the biological activities associated with the deregulated proteins support the contention that aging is linked with increased oxidative stress that could lead to apoptosis in vivo. 相似文献
