鸟氨酸脱羧酶抗酶抑制因子-1高表达抑制黑素瘤细胞在小鼠体内的生长

鸟氨酸脱羧酶抗酶抑制因子-1(ornithine decarboxylase antienzyme inhibitor-1,OAZI-1)是细胞内调节多胺代谢的重要蛋白质因子。已有研究发现,OAZI-1高表达的黑素瘤细胞在体外能更有效地被抗原提呈细胞识别和吞噬,提示OAZI-1在肿瘤免疫治疗中具有潜在的应用价值。为进一步分析OAZI-1高表达对黑素瘤细胞在小鼠体内生长的影响,高表达OAZI-1的黑素瘤细胞(B16/OAZI-1)被接种到实验小鼠体内,结果发现,接种瘤出现先成瘤随后逐渐消退的现象,至第24 d时,接种瘤的平均体积为36±25 mm3~,而对照细胞接种瘤的平均体积为326±309 mm~3。为探索上述现象的机制,随后分析了B16/OAZI-1在小鼠体内诱导的抗肿瘤免疫效应,结果发现:1)B16/OAZI-1接种显著增加了小鼠脾脏细胞对B16-F1瘤细胞的杀伤活性;2)源于B16-F1的细胞抗原能更有效地促进B16/OAZI-1接种小鼠脾脏细胞的增殖;3)B16/OAZI-1接种小鼠的脾脏细胞具有更强的分泌IFN-γ的能力;4)当在预接种B16/OAZI-1 30 d后的小鼠体内再次接种B16-F1活细胞时,新接种瘤细胞的生长受到显著抑制,小鼠的存活率增加。上述研究结果提示,高表达OAZI-1的黑素瘤细胞在实验动物体内的生长受到显著抑制,其机制可能与OAZI-1能促进肿瘤抗原提呈和诱导抗肿瘤免疫效应相关。

Detection of Ornithine Decarboxylase Antizyme in Mouse Brain

Ornithine decarboxylase, the rate-limiting enzyme in polyamine synthesis, is known to be regulated by a macromolecular inhibitor, termed antizyme, in a number of cellular systems. The present results show that the antizyme is also a functional component of polyamine metabolism in the brain. It could be demonstrated both in normal randomly selected mice and in animals which had been subjected either to intracerebroventricular injection of saline, which is known to cause a transient activation of ornithine decarboxylase, or to 1,3-diamino-2-propanol, an antizyme-inducing agent. When compared to tissues or cell systems studied so far, the cytosol fraction from mouse brain homogenate appeared to contain an exceptionally high amount of antizyme, that was bound to some material other than active ornithine decarboxylase. This feature was seen in all the animal groups studied, being most prominent after saline injection, when the amount of dissociable antizyme exceeded 14-fold the corresponding released ornithine decarboxylase activity. In untreated animals the excess was about eightfold and after 1,3-diamino-2-propanol about fivefold.

Ornithine Decarboxylase Activity in Brain Regulated by a Specific Macromolecul, the Antizyme

Mouse brain ornithine decarboxylase activity is about 70-fold higher at the time of birth compared with that of adult mice. Enzyme activity declines rapidly after birth and reaches the adult level by 3 weeks. Immunoreactive enzyme concentration parallels very closely the decrease of enzyme activity during the first postnatal week, remaining constant thereafter. The content of brain antizyme, the macromolecular inhibitor to ornithine decarboxylase, in turn is very low during the first 7 days and starts then to increase and at the age of 3 weeks it is about six times the level of that in newborn mice. This may explain the decrease in enzyme activity during brain maturation, and suggests the regulation of polyamine biosynthesis by an antizyme-mediated mechanism in adult brain.     

Docking of Antizyme to Ornithine Decarboxylase and Antizyme Inhibitor using Experimental Mutant and Double-Mutant Cycle Data

Antizyme (Az) is a highly conserved key regulatory protein bearing a major role in regulating polyamine levels in the cell. It has the ability to bind and inhibit ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), targeting it for degradation. Az inhibitor (AzI) impairs the activity of Az. In this study, we mapped the binding sites of ODC and AzI on Az using Ala scan mutagenesis and generated models of the two complexes by constrained computational docking. In order to scan a large number of mutants in a short time, we developed a workflow combining high-throughput mutagenesis, small-scale parallel partial purification of His-tagged proteins and their immobilization on a tris-nitrilotriacetic-acid-coated surface plasmon resonance chip. This combination of techniques resulted in a significant reduction in time for production and measurement of large numbers of mutant proteins. The data-driven docking results suggest that both proteins occupy the same binding site on Az, with Az binding within a large groove in AzI and ODC. However, single-mutant data provide information concerning the location of the binding sites only, not on their relative orientations. Therefore, we generated a large number of double-mutant cycles between residues on Az and ODC and used the resulting interaction energies to restrict docking. The model of the complex is well defined and accounts for the mutant data generated here, and previously determined biochemical data for this system. Insights on the structure and function of the complexes, as well as general aspects of the method, are discussed.

Transcription-Dependent and -Independent Induction of Cerebral Ornithine Decarboxylase

Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC; EC 4.1.1.17) is a highly inducible, rate-limiting enzyme of the polyamine pathway. We have studied the mechanisms that lead to the induction of ODC activity in response to electrical stimulation in three brain regions. Hippocampal ODC activity was found to exhibit much larger elevations than that of the neocortex and the cerebellum. The levels of ODC gene expression were also followed to examine its relationship to the existing regional differences in ODC activity. In the neocortex, there was an elevation of both the ODC mRNA and enzyme activity. However, the hippocampal ODC mRNA level was not increased by electroconvulsive shock. Furthermore, the effects of hormonal changes and seizures on these regional differences in ODC induction were also examined. Adrenalectomy did not affect ODC activity, but pretreatment with the anticonvulsant MK-801 caused a depression of the induced levels of enzyme activity. Our data suggest that ODC activity in all the brain regions studied is directly elevated by electrically stimulated seizures. However, this induced ODC activity may or may not involve enhanced gene expression.     

Involvement of an "Antizyme'' in the Inactivation of Ornithine Decarboxylase

DL-Allylglycine causes a marked increase in mouse brain ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity. The amount of immunoreactive enzyme protein increases concomitantly with the activity, but the enzyme protein decreases more slowly than that of the activity. The amount of immunoreactive ODC in brain is many hundred times that of the catalytically active enzyme. The fact that mouse brain cytosol contains high amounts of dissociable antizyme (an inactivating protein) indicates the existence of an inactive, immunoreactive ODC-antizyme pool. The total antizyme content does not change markedly, but instead there are significant changes in different antizyme pools. Putrescine concentrations start to increase 8 h after treatment with allylglycine and concomitantly with this increase, antizyme is released to inhibit enzyme activity. These results indicate the involvement of antizyme in the inactivation process of ODC.
