Glucocorticoids selectively decrease procollagen synthesis in animal and human skin fibroblasts. beta-Actin content and beta-actin mRNA are not affected by glucocorticoid treatment of chick skin fibroblasts. The inhibitory effect of glucocorticoids on procollagen synthesis is associated with a decrease in total cellular type I procollagen mRNAs in chick skin fibroblasts. These effects of dexamethasone are receptor mediated as determined by pretreatment with the glucocorticoid antagonists progesterone and RU-486 and with the agonist beta-dihydrocortisol. Dexamethasone has a small but significant inhibitory effect on cell growth of chick skin fibroblasts. The ability of this corticosteroid to decrease the steady-state levels of type I procollagen mRNAs in nuclei, cytoplasm, and polysomes varies. The largest decrease of type I procollagen mRNAs is observed in the nuclear and cytoplasmic subcellular fractions 24 h after dexamethasone treatment. Type I procollagen hnRNAs are also decreased as determined by Northern blot analysis of total nuclear RNA. The synthesis of total cellular type I procollagen mRNAs is reversibly decreased by dexamethasone treatment. In addition the synthesis of total nuclear type I procollagen mRNA sequences is decreased at 2, 4, and 24 h following the addition of radioactive nucleoside and dexamethasone to cell cultures. Although the synthesis of pro alpha 1(I) and pro alpha 2(I) mRNAs is decreased in dexamethasone-treated chick skin fibroblasts, the degradation of the total cellular procollagen mRNAs is not altered while the degradation of total cellular RNA is stabilized. These data indicate that the dexamethasone-mediated decrease of procollagen synthesis in embryonic chick skin fibroblasts results from the regulation of procollagen gene expression. 相似文献

Human hepatoma cell lines were shown for the first time to contain various types of procollagen mRNAs. The amounts and types of procollagen mRNAs differed depending on the cell lines. Pro alpha 1 (III) and pro alpha 1 (IV) collagen mRNAs were present in PLC/PRF/5, a hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, whereas pro alpha 1 (I), pro alpha 2 (I), pro alpha 1 (IV) and pro alpha 2 (V) collagen genes contrast, HepG2 cells derived from hepatoblastoma contained little, if any, mRNAs for these types of procollagens we had examined. 相似文献

Regulation of type I collagen synthesis by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in human osteosarcoma cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Synthesis of type I and III collagens has been examined in MG-63 human osteosarcoma cells after treatment with the steroid hormone, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2D3). Analysis of total [3H]proline-labeled proteins and pepsin-derived collagens revealed that 1,25-(OH)2D3 selectively stimulated synthesis of alpha 1I and alpha 2I components of type I collagen after 6-12 h. Consistent with previous reports (Franceschi, R. T., Linson, C. J., Peter, T. C., and Romano, P. R. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 4165-4171), parallel increases in fibronectin synthesis were also observed. Hormonal effects were maximal (2- to 2.5-fold versus controls) after 24 h and persisted for at least 48 h. In contrast, synthesis of the alpha 1III component of type III collagen was not appreciably affected by hormone treatment. Of several vitamin D metabolites (1,25-(OH)2D3, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, and 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3) tested for activity in stimulating type I collagen synthesis, 1,25-(OH)2D3 was found to be the most active. Analysis of collagen mRNA abundance by Northern blot hybridization indicated that both types I and III procollagen mRNAs were increased 4-fold after a 24-h exposure to 1,25-(OH)2D3. Pro alpha 1I mRNA remained elevated through the 48-h time point while pro alpha 2I and pro alpha 1III mRNAs returned to control values. These results indicate that the regulation of collagen synthesis by 1,25-(OH)2D3 is complex and may involve changes in translational efficiency as well as mRNA abundance. 1,25-(OH)2D3 also caused at least a 20-fold increase in levels of the bone-specific calcium-binding protein, osteocalcin. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that 1,25-(OH)2D3 is stimulating partial differentiation to the osteoblast phenotype in MG-63 cells. 相似文献

Bleomycin treatment of primary chick skin fibroblasts and chick lung fibroblasts resulted in a selective dose-dependent increase of cell layer procollagen synthesis. Solid support hybridization of total cellular RNA to 32P-labeled pro-alpha 1(I) and pro-alpha 2(I) cDNAs did not indicate an increase of total cellular procollagen type I mRNAs in bleomycin-treated cells. However, bleomycin treatment of chick skin fibroblasts causes a redistribution of procollagen type I mRNAs within the nuclear, cytoplasmic, and polysomal subcellular fractions. Both the nuclear and cytoplasmic procollagen type I mRNAs are significantly decreased in concentration after bleomycin administration. In contrast, the polysomal procollagen type I mRNAs are significantly increased in both chick skin and lung fibroblasts treated with bleomycin. Administration of dexamethasone to bleomycin-treated fibroblasts resulted in a reversal of the bleomycin-induced increase in cell layer procollagen synthesis. The increased amounts of polysomal procollagen type I mRNAs in bleomycin-treated cells were also reduced by subsequent administration of dexamethasone. These data indicate that bleomycin treatment of chick skin and chick lung fibroblasts results in a specific increase in procollagen synthesis in the cell layer which is mediated by elevated levels of polysomal type I procollagen mRNAs via a repartitioning of these mRNAs within the fibroblast. Furthermore, dexamethasone reverses the bleomycin-induced elevations of both cell layer procollagen synthesis and polysomal type I procollagen mRNAs. 相似文献

There is evidence that immobilization causes a decrease in total collagen synthesis in skeletal muscle within a few days. In this study, early immobilization effects on the expression of prolyl 4-hydroxylase (PH) and the main fibrillar collagens at mRNA and protein levels were investigated in rat skeletal muscle. The right hindlimb was immobilized in full plantar flexion for 1, 3, and 7 days. Steady-state mRNAs for alpha- and beta-subunits of PH and type I and III procollagen, PH activity, and collagen content were measured in gastrocnemius and plantaris muscles. Type I and III procollagen mRNAs were also measured in soleus and tibialis anterior muscles. The mRNA level for the PH alpha-subunit decreased by 49 and 55% (P < 0.01) in gastrocnemius muscle and by 41 and 39% (P < 0.05) in plantaris muscle after immobilization for 1 and 3 days, respectively. PH activity was decreased (P < 0.05-0.01) in both muscles at days 3 and 7. The mRNA levels for type I and III procollagen were decreased by 26-56% (P < 0.05-0.001) in soleus, tibialis anterior, and plantaris muscles at day 3. The present results thus suggest that pretranslational downregulation plays a key role in fibrillar collagen synthesis in the early phase of immobilization-induced muscle atrophy. 相似文献

Embryonic muscle development permits the study of contractile protein gene regulation during cellular differentiation. To distinguish the appearance of particular actin mRNAs during chicken myogenesis, we have constructed DNA probes from the transcribed 3' noncoding region of the single-copy alpha-skeletal, alpha-cardiac, and beta-cytoplasmic actin genes. Hybridization experiments showed that at day 10 in ovo (stage 36), embryonic hindlimbs contain low levels of actin mRNA, predominantly consisting of the alpha-cardiac and beta-actin isotypes. However, by day 17 in ovo (stage 43), the amount of alpha-skeletal actin mRNA/microgram total RNA increased more than 30-fold and represented approximately 90% of the assayed actin mRNA. Concomitantly, alpha-cardiac and beta-actin mRNAs decreased by 30% and 70%, respectively, from the levels observed at day 10. In primary myoblast cultures, beta-actin mRNA increased sharply during the proliferative phase before fusion and steadily declined thereafter. alpha-Cardiac actin mRNA increased to levels 15-fold greater than alpha-skeletal actin mRNA in prefusion myoblasts (36 h), and remained at elevated levels. In contrast, the alpha-skeletal actin mRNA remained low until fusion had begun (48 h), increased 25-fold over the prefusion level by the completion of fusion, and then decreased at later times in culture. Thus, the sequential accumulation of sarcomeric alpha-actin mRNAs in culture mimics some of the events observed in embryonic limb development. However, maintenance of high levels of alpha-cardiac actin mRNA as well as the transient accumulation of appreciable alpha-skeletal actin mRNA suggests that myoblast cultures lack one or more essential components for phenotypic maturation. 相似文献

Specific DNA fragments complementary to the 3' untranslated regions of the beta-, alpha-cardiac, and alpha-skeletal actin mRNAs were used as in situ hybridization probes to examine differential expression and distribution of these mRNAs in primary myogenic cultures. We demonstrated that prefusion bipolar-shaped cells derived from day 3 dissociated embryonic somites were equivalent to myoblasts derived from embryonic day 11-12 pectoral tissue with respect to the expression of the alpha-cardiac actin gene. Fibroblasts present in primary muscle cultures were not labeled by the alpha-cardiac actin gene probe. Since virtually all of the bipolar cells express alpha-cardiac actin mRNA before fusion, we suggest that the bipolar phenotype may distinguish a committed myogenic cell type. In contrast, alpha-skeletal actin mRNA accumulates only in multinucleated myotubes and appears to be regulated independently from the alpha-cardiac actin gene. Accumulation of alpha- skeletal but not alpha-cardiac actin mRNA can be blocked by growth in Ca2+-deficient medium which arrests myoblast fusion. Thus, the sequential appearance of alpha-cardiac and then alpha-skeletal actin mRNA may result from factors that arise during terminal differentiation. Finally, the beta-actin mRNA was located in both fibroblasts and myoblasts but diminished in content during myoblast fusion and was absent from differentiated myotubes. It appears that in primary myogenic cultures, an asynchronous stage-dependent induction of two different alpha-striated actin mRNA species occurs concomitant with the deinduction of the nonmuscle beta-actin gene. 相似文献

Type I collagen messenger RNA levels in experimental granulation tissue and silicosis in rats 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A complementary DNA (cDNA) clone was constructed for chick pro alpha 2(I) collagen mRNA. This and previously constructed cDNA clones for chick and human pro alpha 1(I) collagen mRNAs were used to measure levels of type I procollagen messenger RNAs in two experimental models: viscose cellulose sponge-induced experimental granulation tissue and silica-induced experimental lung fibrosis in rats. Both Northern RNA blot and RNA dot hybridizations were used to quantitate procollagen mRNAs during formation of granulation tissue. The period of rapid collagen synthesis was characterized by high levels of procollagen mRNAs, which were reduced when collagen production returned to a low basal level. The rate of collagen synthesis and the levels of procollagen mRNAs during the period of rapid reduction in collagen production did not, however, parallel with each other. This suggests that translational control mechanisms are important during this time in preventing overproduction of collagen. In silicotic lungs, the early stages of fibroblast activation follow a similar path but appear faster. At a later stage, however, the RNA levels increase again and permit collagen synthesis to continue at a high rate, resulting in massive collagen accumulation. 相似文献

Coordinate regulation of contractile protein synthesis during myoblast differentiation 总被引:41,自引:0,他引:41
The synthesis of contractile proteins has been studied during the differentiation of quail skeletal muscle myoblasts in culture. Myoblast differentiation was synchronized by transferring secondary cultures of rapidly dividing myoblasts into medium lacking cell division-promoting factors. Cultures at various stages of differentiation were then pulse-labeled with 35S-methionine, and cell extracts were resolved by electrophoresis on two-dimensional gels. Incorporation into specific proteins was quantitated by autoradiography and fluorography using a scanning densitometer. Contractile proteins synthesized by muscle cultures were identified by their co-electrophoresis on two-dimensional gels with contracile proteins purified from quail breast muscle. Our results show that the synthesis of myosin heavy chain, two myosin light chains, two subunits of troponin and two subunits of tropomyosin is first detected at the time of myoblast fusion and then rapidly increase at least 500 fold to maximum rates which remain constant in muscle fibers. Both the kinetics of activation and the molar rates of synthesis of these contractile proteins are virtually identical. Muscle-specific actin (alpha) synthesis also increases at the time of myoblast fusion, but this actin (alpha) is synthesized at 3 times the rate of other contractile proteins. The synthesis of 30 other muscle cell proteins was quantitated, and most of these are shown to follow different patterns of regulation. From these results, we conclude that the contractile proteins are regulated coordinately during myoblast differentiation. 相似文献

Subpopulations of rat lung fibroblasts with different amounts of type I and type III collagen mRNAs 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A fluorescence-based method using the cell sorter has been devised to separate rat lung fibroblasts into subpopulations. Type I or type III collagen antiserum was used as the primary antibody to react with parent rat lung fibroblasts. This was followed by a fluorescein-conjugated secondary antibody. Specificity of the primary collagen antibody was determined using a monoclonal beta-actin antibody and purified IgG as the primary antibodies. The fluorescent shift of parent rat lung fibroblasts was optimized for the amount of primary collagen antibody and secondary fluorescein-conjugated antibody. An increase in slot blot intensity was observed for pro-alpha 1(I), pro-alpha 2(I), and pro-alpha 1(III) mRNAs with increasing amounts of cellular RNA. When precipitating with type I collagen antibodies, the total cellular steady-state levels of type I procollagen mRNAs were increased in the high intensity cells as compared with the low intensity cells. Alternately, when the type III collagen antibodies were used to precipitate the rat lung fibroblasts, the low intensity cells had increased type I procollagen mRNAs while the high intensity cells had increased type III procollagen mRNA. The subpopulations of rat lung fibroblasts after isolation using the fluorescent cell sorter were readily propagated for at least four passages. 相似文献

Modulation of types I and III procollagen synthesis at various stages of arterial smooth muscle cell growth in vitro 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Collagen synthesis was monitored in cultures of rabbit arterial smooth muscle cells (SMC). Both the rate of collagen synthesis per cell and collagen synthesis as a percent of total protein synthesis were measured at specific intervals from 1 to 14 days after inoculation of smooth muscle cells. The proportions of types I and III collagen present in the conditioned incubation medium and in the cell layer were also examined. After inoculation the cells displayed population expansion typical of SMC in which growth slowed but did not cease after the cells attained confluence. Collagen synthesis rates, expressed as [14C]hydroxyproline per cell, were eight-fold higher in preconfluent cells. In these cultures collagen accounted for more than 20% of the newly synthesized, 14C-labeled protein present as trichloroacetic acid (TCA)-insoluble material in 24 h culture media. In post-confluent cultures, this percentage was reduced to about 7% of the total protein synthesized. Synthesis rates of both collagen and non-collagen protein decreased with increasing time after inoculation. However, the rate of decline of collagen synthesis was three times greater than that seen for non-collagen protein. Early cultures synthesized relatively more type I than type III procollagen. The type I to type III ratio was highest at day 3 and declined after that time to day 14. While the synthesis of both types decreased with increasing age, type I declined at a greater rate resulting in a predominance of type III procollagen secretion by older cultures. We conclude that protein synthesis in general and collagen synthesis in particular are quantitatively and qualitatively dependent upon the growth stage of SMC in vitro. 相似文献

The effect of 6-O-palmitoyl ascorbate on procollagen mRNA levels, collagen synthesis, and collagen secretion was investigated and compared with the effect of L-ascorbate in human intestinal smooth muscle (HISM) cells in vitro. Collagen synthesis, determined by the incorporation of 3H-proline into pepsin-resistant, salt-precipitated collagen, increased in a concentration-dependent manner in response to palmitoyl ascorbate. There was a twofold increase in collagen synthesis at 2.5 and 5 microM. By contrast, L-ascorbate was required at 4-5 times the concentration for the same response. However, at 20 microM, both palmitoyl and L-ascorbate induced similar 2.7-fold increases in collagen synthesis. Palmitoyl ascorbate induced a 1.6- and 3.5-fold increase in steady-state levels of procollagen I and III mRNA levels respectively, whereas L-ascorbate had no effect. Palmitoyl ascorbate and L-ascorbate induced similar increases in the amounts of newly synthesized procollagen secreted into the medium and in the amounts of collagen types I, III and V accumulating in the cell layer. There was no effect of either palmitoyl ascorbate or L-ascorbate on the activity of a procollagen alpha2 (I) promoter construct transiently transfected into HISM cells. Palmitoyl ascorbate augments HISM cell procollagen synthesis and mRNA levels more efficiently than L-ascorbate. This property may be due to the greater resistance of the ascorbate ester to oxidation and suggests that palmitoyl ascorbate could be an important agent for studies of collagen synthesis in vitro. 相似文献

Regulation of collagen VI expression in fibroblasts. Effects of cell density, cell-matrix interactions, and chemical transformation 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Collagen VI expression was studied in cultured human skin fibroblasts and mouse 3T3 cells using cDNA probes specific for alpha 1(VI), alpha 2(VI), and alpha 3(VI) chains. A 2-3-fold increase of these mRNAs was observed when fibroblasts were grown at increasing densities while only minimal changes occurred for the mRNA levels of collagens I and III, fibronectin, and beta-actin. Changes in mRNA correlated well with an increased production of corresponding proteins as determined by immunological assays. A comparable increase of alpha 1(VI) and alpha 2(VI) but not of alpha 3(VI) chain mRNAs was found for fibroblasts grown in a three-dimensional collagen gel after gel contraction. These conditions resulted, however, in a decrease of steady-state levels of collagens I and III and actin mRNAs. Transformation of 3T3 cells by phorbol ester did not change collagen VI mRNAs but caused a 3-5-fold reduction in mRNA levels for the other extracellular matrix proteins. These data strongly imply different regulatory mechanisms for the expression of collagen VI compared with collagens I and III and fibronectin. The differences may be correlated to changes in cell shape and reflect the requirement for collagen VI as a cell-binding protein. 相似文献

Rats were administered CCl4, a well-defined nephrotoxin, for 20 weeks to produce glomerular sclerosis. Tubular degeneration and necrosis with interstitial fibrosis was clearly evident by histological examination. Kidneys were homogenized in phosphate-buffered saline and a collagen synthesis-stimulating factor was isolated by Sephadex G-50 gel filtration. The 5 kDa component stimulated both type I and type IV procollagen synthesis by mesangial cells and type I procollagen synthesis by rat skin fibroblasts. In each cell type, 2-6-fold increases in procollagen protein production or cell proliferation was noted. The steady-state levels of mRNA encoding for procollagen alpha 1(I) and procollagen alpha 1(IV) chains in mesangial cells were determined by by hybridization to their corresponding cDNA clones. The type I procollagen mRNA was elevated 1.4-fold compared to a 1.6-fold increase in mRNA encoding for type IV procollagen. The similar properties and chemical characteristics of this fibrogenic factor with a factor from fibrotic liver suggests they are the same and that a common endogenous collagen synthesis stimulator may be present in fibrosing organs, thus providing a driving force for collagen over-production. 相似文献
