共同受体CCR5与HIV gp120的相互作用及相关肽类抑制剂   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
存在于巨嗜细胞、树突状细胞等胞膜上的G蛋白偶联受体CCR5作为R5嗜性的HIV-1病毒的主要共同受体,可以和病毒的表面糖蛋白gp120相互作用,并由此决定了病毒的另一表面糖蛋白gp41融合构象的形成以及随后的病毒与细胞的膜融合。CCR5在细胞膜上迅速移动,并与其他分子(如CD4和胆固醇)存在相互作用,加速了与gp120的作用。CCR5的这种中心作用已经使其成为抗HIV-1药物研究的很有吸引力的靶点。目前已发现一系列衍生于CCR5的胞外区的多肽、天然存在的蛋白质以及设计的多肽,可干扰CCR5与gp120之间的相互作用,从而抑制病毒复制。  相似文献

艾滋病已在世界范围内给人类健康和社会发展带来了严重影响.抑制HIV-1与细胞膜融合的多肽抑制剂由于其分子量小、结构简单、生物毒性低和作用效果明显等优点而受到研究者的重视.针对HIV-1与细胞的融合过程中涉及gp160的分裂、gp120与CD4受体及辅助受体的结合、gp41自身的折叠及与细胞膜的并列与融合等步骤,可以设计一些新的多肽药物靶点,以达到阻止HIV-1侵入的目的.目前针对上述三步骤已分别设计出了相应的多肽抑制剂,如M3、HRPs、CD4M、S肽、DAPTA及C22等,这些多肽抑制剂在体外实验、动物实验或临床实验中均表现出较好的抑制HIV-1与细胞融合的能力,具有十分巨大的潜在应用前景.  相似文献

前期研究发现热休克蛋白gp96作为分子伴侣,能特异结合乙肝病毒(HBV)表位肽,并将结合的多肽交叉呈递给MHCⅠ类分子,从而激活病毒特异性CD8+ T细胞(CTL).在此基础上,研究BALB/c小鼠模型联合低剂量环磷酰胺(cyclophosphamide,CTX)对热休克蛋白gp96免疫佐剂功能的影响.以gp96或其N端片段(N355)与H-2Kd限制的乙肝病毒核心蛋白表位HBcAg87-95作为佐剂联合低剂量CTX免疫BALB/c小鼠.联合使用低剂量CTX的试验组CD8+T细胞、IFN-γ+CD8+T细胞、乙肝抗原特异T细胞比例显著高于未使用CTX的对照组(P<0.05),且联合使用CTX的试验组CD4+CD25+调节性T细胞(T Regulatory Cells ,Treg)比例显著低于单独使用gp96和N355试验组(P<0.05),说明低剂量的CTX能特异性抑制Treg从而导致T细胞的增加.以上研究表明联合使用低剂量的环磷酰胺能有效增强gp96免疫佐剂功能,这为进一步优化gp96佐剂疫苗的使用提供了依据.  相似文献

Cationic lytic‐type peptides have been studied for clinical application in various infections and cancers, but their functional cellular mechanisms remain unclear. We generated anti‐cancer epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR)‐lytic hybrid peptide, a 32‐amino‐acid peptide composed of an EGFR‐binding sequence and lytic sequence. In this study, we investigated the distribution of EGFR‐lytic hybrid peptide in BxPC‐3 human pancreatic cancer cells by an immunocytochemical (ICC) method. Distribution of EGFR protein expression was unchanged after treatment with EGFR‐lytic peptide compared with non‐treated cells. In confocal laser scanning microscopy, immunostaining of EGFR‐lytic peptide was observed in the cytoplasm, mostly in the form of granules. Some staining was also localized on the mitochondrial membrane. At the ultrastructure level, cells treated with EGFR‐lytic peptide had a low electron density, disappearance of microvilli, and swollen mitochondria. Fragments of cell membrane were also observed in the proximity of the membrane. In immunoelectron microscopy, EGFR‐lytic peptide was observed in the cell membrane and cytoplasm. A number of granules were considered swollen mitochondria. Activation of the caspase pathway as a result of mitochondrial dysfunction was also examined to determine the cytotoxic activity of EGFR‐lytic peptide; however, no effect on cell death after EGFR‐lytic treatment was observed, and moreover, apoptosis was not found to play a critical role in the cell death mechanism. These results suggest that EGFR‐lytic peptide is localized on cell and mitochondrial membranes, with disintegration of the cell membrane contributing mainly to cell death.

Over‐expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) has been reported in a number of human malignancies. Strong expression of this receptor has been associated with poor survival in many such patients. Active immunizations that elicit antibodies of the desired type could be an appealing alternative to conventional passive immunization. In this regard, a novel recombinant peptide vaccine capable of prophylactic and therapeutic effects was constructed. A novel fusion recombinant peptide base vaccine consisting of L2 domain of murine extra‐cellular domain–EGFR and EGFR mimotope (EM‐L2) was constructed and its prophylactic and therapeutic effects in a Lewis lung carcinoma mouse (C57/BL6) model evaluated. Constructed recombinant peptide vaccine is capable of reacting with anti‐EGFR antibodies. Immunization of mice with EM‐L2 peptide resulted in antibody production against EM‐L2. The constructed recombinant peptide vaccine reduced tumor growth and increased the survival rate. Designing effective peptide vaccines could be an encouraging strategy in contemporary cancer immunotherapy. Investigating the efficacy of such cancer immunotherapy approaches may open exciting possibilities concerning hyperimmunization, leading to more promising effects on tumor regression and proliferation.

Breast cancer has a diverse aetiology characterized by the heterogeneous expression of hormone receptors and signalling molecules, resulting in varied sensitivity to chemotherapy. The adverse side effects of chemotherapy coupled with the development of drug resistance have prompted the exploration of natural products to combat cancer. Lactoferricin B (LfcinB) is a natural peptide derived from bovine lactoferrin that exhibits anticancer properties. LfcinB was evaluated in vitro for its inhibitory effects on cell lines representing different categories of breast cancer and in vivo for its suppressive effects on tumour xenografts in NOD-SCID mice. The different breast cancer cell lines exhibited varied levels of sensitivity to apoptosis induced by LfcinB in the order of SKBR3>MDA-MB-231>MDA-MB-468>MCF7, while the normal breast epithelial cells MCF-10A were not sensitive to LfcinB. The peptide also inhibited the invasion of the MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 cell lines. In the mouse xenograft model, intratumoural injections of LfcinB significantly reduced tumour growth rate and tumour size, as depicted by live imaging of the mice using in vivo imaging systems (IVIS). Harvested tumour volume and weight were significantly reduced by LfcinB treatment. LfcinB, therefore, is a promising and safe candidate that can be considered for the treatment of breast cancer.  相似文献

The endocytosis‐mediating performances of two types of peptide ligands, cell receptor binding peptide (CRBP) and cell membrane penetrating peptide (CMPP), were analyzed and compared using a common carrier of peptide ligands‐human ferritin heavy chain (hFTH) nanoparticle. Twenty‐four copies of a CMPP(human immunodeficiency virus‐derived TAT peptide) and/or a CRBP (peptide ligand with strong and specific affinity for either human integrin(αvβ3) or epidermal growth factor receptor I (EGFR) that is overexpressed on various cancer cells) were genetically presented on the surface of each hFTH nanopariticle. The quantitative level of endocytosis and intracellular localization of fluorescence dye‐labeled CRBP‐ and CMPP‐presenting nanoparticles were estimated in the in vitro cultures of integrin‐ and EGFR‐overexpressing cancer and human dermal fibroblast cells(control). From the cancer cell cultures treated with the CMPP‐ and CRBP‐presenting nanoparticles, it was notable that CRBPs resulted in quantitatively higher level of endocytosis than CMPP (TAT) and successfully transported the nanoparticles to the cytosol of cancer cells depending on concentration and treatment period of time, whereas TAT‐mediated endocytosis localized most of the nanoparticles within endosomal vesicles under the same conditions. These novel findings provide highly useful informations to many researchers both in academia and in industry who are interested in developing anticancer drug delivery systems/carriers.  相似文献

Dendritic cells are special and powerful antigen‐presenting cells that can induce primary immune responses against tumour‐associated antigens. They can present antigens via both MHC‐I and MHC‐II, so they have the ability to stimulate both cytotoxic T lymphocytes and T helper cells. Furthermore, CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes require activation by CD4+ T cells. This requires a CD4+T cell activator molecule, of which PADRE is one of the best. We chose an approach to use both of these important arms of the immune system. We prepared dendritic cells from mouse bone marrow, loaded them with our target peptides (P5 peptide alone or P5 + PADRE), and then injected these pulsed dendritic cells alone or in combination with CpG‐ODN (as adjuvant) into BALB/C mice. After the last boosting dose, mice were inoculated with TUBO cells, which overexpress HER2/neu. Two weeks after the tumour cell injection, immunological tests were performed on splenocyte suspensions, and the remaining mice were evaluated for tumour growth and survival. Our data indicate the formulation that contains PADRE plus P5 loaded onto DC in combination with CpG‐ODN was the most effective formulation at inducing immune responses. Interferon production in CD4+ and CD8+ gated cells, cytotoxicity rates of target cells and mice survival were all significantly greater in this group than in controls, and all the mice in this group were tumour‐free throughout the experiment. Based on our results and the role of HER2/neu as a candidate in human immunotherapy, this approach may be an effective cancer treatment.  相似文献

Cancer metastasis, including cell invasion, is a major cause of poor clinical outcomes and death in numerous cancer patients. In recent years, many efforts have been made to develop potent therapeutic molecules from naturally derived peptides. Sungsanpin is a naturally derived lasso peptide that inhibits A549 cell invasion. We aimed to evaluate the potential of sungsanpin derivatives as candidates for anti-invasion drugs. We synthesized an analog of sungsanpin (Sun A) using a solid-phase peptide synthesis strategy (SPPS) and further modified its structure to improve its anti-invasion activity. All peptides were tested for their proliferative inhibition and anti-invasion activities in the A549 cell lines. Octapeptide S3 and cyclooctapeptide S4 upregulated the expression of TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 mRNA effectively and thus improved the inhibitory effect on the invasion of A549 cells. The two peptides can inhibit the invasion of A549 cells by up to 60 %, suggesting that they have potential as lead molecules for the development of peptide inhibitors.  相似文献

Missense mutations in the DNA-binding core domain of the tumour suppressor protein p53 are frequent in cancer. Many of them result in loss of native structure. The mutation R249S is one of the six most common cancer-associated p53 mutations ("hot-spots"). As it is highly frequent in hepatocellular carcinoma, its rescue is an important therapeutic target. We have used NMR techniques to study the structural effects of the R249S mutation. The overall fold of the core domain is retained in R249S, and it does not take up a denatured "mutant conformation". However, the beta-sandwich had increased flexibility and, according to changes in chemical shift, there was local distortion throughout the DNA-binding interface. It is likely that the R249S mutation resulted in an ensemble of native and native-like conformations in a dynamic equilibrium. The peptide FL-CDB3 that was designed to rescue mutants of p53 by binding specifically to its native structure was found to revert the chemical shifts of R249S back towards the wild-type values and so reverse the structural effects of mutation. We discuss the implications for a rescue strategy and also for the analysis of antibody-binding data.  相似文献
