Consensus DNA sequences from human, mouse and/or rat were used to design oligonucleotide primers for equine homologues of exons 16, 17 and 20-23 of potassium chloride co-transporter (SLC12A4) and exons 10, 11 and 3, 4, respectively, for two amino acid transporters (SLC7A10 and SLC7A9). DNA sequences of the PCR products showed high sequence identity to these regions. Equine BAC clones were obtained for SLC12A4 and SLC7A10 and mapped to equine chromosomes ECA3p13 and ECA10p15, respectively, by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) were found. Substitutions of A/G were found within exon 17 of SLC12A4, within intron 11 of SLC7A10 and within intron 3 of SLC7A9. The SNP associated with SLC7A10 and SLC7A9 were sufficiently polymorphic to investigate associations with erythrocyte fragility among a group of 20 thoroughbred horses. A non-parametric rank-sum test showed a weak association between erythrocyte fragility and the SNP associated with SLC7A10 (P < 0.05).  相似文献

Numerous studies have reported that CXCR4 and CXCR7 play an essential, but differential role in stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1)-inducing cell chemotaxis, viability and paracrine actions of BMSCs. Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) have been suggested to be potential seed cells for clinical application instead of bone marrow derived stroma cell (BMSCs). However, the function of SDF-1/CXCR4 and SDF-1/CXCR7 in ADSCs is not well understood. This study was designed to analyze the effect of SDF-1/CXCR4 and SDF-1/CXCR7 axis on ADSCs biological behaviors in vitro. Using Flow cytometry and Western blot methods, we found for the first time that CXCR4/CXCR7 expression was increased after treatment with SDF-1 in ADSCs. SDF-1 promoted ADSCs paracrine, proliferation and migration abilities. CXCR4 or CXCR7 antibody suppressed ADSCs paracrine action induced by SDF-1. The migration of ADSCs can be abolished by CXCR4 antibody, while the proliferation of ADSCs was only downregulated by CXCR7 antibody. Our study indicated that the angiogenesis of ADSCs is, at least partly, mediated by SDF-1/CXCR4 and SDF-1/CXCR7 axis. However, only binding of SDF-1/CXCR7 was required for proliferation of ADSCs, and CXCR7 was required for migration of ADSCs induced by SDF-1. Our studies provide evidence that the activation of either axis may be helpful to improve the effectiveness of ADSCs-based stem cell therapy.  相似文献

Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), accounting for approximately 85% cases of thyroid cancer, is a common endocrine tumour with a relatively low mortality but an alarmingly high rate of recurrence or persistence. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) is emerging as a critical player modulating diverse cellular mechanisms correlated with the progression of various cancers, including PTC. Herein, we aimed to investigate the role of lncRNA SLC26A4-AS1 in regulating autophagy and tumour growth during PTC progression. Initially, ITPR1 was identified by bioinformatics analysis as a differentially expressed gene. Then, Western blot and RT-qPCR were conducted to determine the expression of ITPR1 and SLC26A4-AS1 in PTC tissues and cells, both of which were found to be poorly expressed in PTC tissues and cells. Then, we constructed ITPR1-overexpressing cells and revealed that ITPR1 overexpression could trigger the autophagy of PTC cells. Further, we performed a series of gain- and loss-of function experiments. The results suggested that silencing of SLC26A4-AS1 led to declined ITPR1 level, up-regulation of ETS1 promoted ITPR1 expression, and either ETS1 knockdown or autophagy inhibitor Bafilomycin A1 could mitigate the promoting effects of SLC26A4-AS1 overexpression on PTC cell autophagy. In vivo experiments also revealed that SLC26A4-AS1 overexpression suppressed PTC tumour growth. In conclusion, our study elucidated that SLC26A4-AS1 overexpression promoted ITPR1 expression through recruiting ETS1 and thereby promotes autophagy, alleviating PTC progression. These finding provides insight into novel target therapy for the clinical treatment of PTC.  相似文献

ObjectivesEvidences demonstrate that sorafenib alleviates liver fibrosis via inhibiting HSC activation and ECM accumulation. The underlying mechanism remains unclear. Ferroptosis, a novel programmed cell death, regulates diverse physiological/pathological processes. In this study, we aim to investigate the functional role of HSC ferroptosis in the anti‐fibrotic effect of sorafenib.Materials and MethodsThe effects of sorafenib on HSC ferroptosis and ECM expression were assessed in mouse model of liver fibrosis induced by CCl4. In vitro, Fer‐1 and DFO were used to block ferroptosis and then explored the anti‐fibrotic effect of sorafenib by detecting α‐SMA, COL1α1 and fibronectin proteins. Finally, HIF‐1α siRNA, plasmid and stabilizers were applied to assess related signalling pathway.ResultsSorafenib attenuated liver injury and ECM accumulation in CCl4‐induced fibrotic livers, accompanied by reduction of SLC7A11 and GPX4 proteins. In sorafenib‐treated HSC‐T6 cells, ferroptotic events (depletion of SLC7A11, GPX4 and GSH; accumulation iron, ROS and MDA) were discovered. Intriguingly, these ferroptotic events were not appeared in hepatocytes or macrophages. Sorafenib‐elicited HSC ferroptosis and ECM reduction were abrogated by Fer‐1 and DFO. Additionally, both HIF‐1α and SLC7A11 proteins were reduced in sorafenib‐treated HSC‐T6 cells. SLC7A11 was positively regulated by HIF‐1α, inactivation of HIF‐1α/SLC7A11 pathway was required for sorafenib‐induced HSC ferroptosis, and elevation of HIF‐1α could inhibit ferroptosis, ultimately limited the anti‐fibrotic effect.ConclusionsSorafenib triggers HSC ferroptosis via HIF‐1α/SLC7A11 signalling, which in turn attenuates liver injury and fibrosis.  相似文献

Dysregulated long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) play key roles in the development of human cancers. The lncRNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) is reported to be an oncogene in a variety of cancers. However, the roles of PVT1-5 and its related miRNAs in lung cancer are poorly understood. In this study, we found that PVT1-5 expression was significantly increased in lung cancer tissues and cell lines. By using biotin-labeled lncRNA-PVT1-5 probe for miRNA in vivo precipitation (miRIP) in lung cancer cells and dual-luciferase reporterassays, we identified that miR-126 was associated with lncRNA-PVT1-5. Furthermore, knockdown of lncRNA-PVT1-5 in cells could down-regulate the expression of SLC7A5, the target of oncogenic miR-126, resulting in the cell proliferation. Conversely, inhibiting the expression of miR-126 markedly increased the expression of SLC7A5 and alleviated cell proliferation inhibition. Thus, our results indicated that lncRNA-PVT1-5 may function as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) for miR-126 to promote cell proliferation by regulating the miR-126/SLC7A5 pathway, suggesting that lncRNA-PVT1-5 plays a crucial role in lung cancer progression and lncRNA-PVT1-5/miR-126/SLC7A5 regulatory network may shed light on tumorigenesis in lung cancer.  相似文献

Three human cytochrome P450s, 3A4, 2C9 and 1A2, were each co-expressed with NADPH-P450 reductase in Escherichia coli and used in the preparative synthesis of drug metabolites. Low dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration (<1%) during expression was found to be critical for producing active P450s. Control of temperature, pH and glycerol supplementation in 10-L fermentations enhanced enzyme expression 31–86%. Additional improvements were obtained by altering media formulations, resulting in bicistronic expression levels of 890, 1,800 and 1,010 nmol/L for 3A4, 2C9 and 1A2, respectively. The P450 titers achieved in fermentors exceeded those in flask fermentations by 3- to 6-fold in this study and up to 10-fold when compared with previously reported literature [FEBS Lett (1996) 397:210–214, Arch Biochem Biophys (1996) 327:254–259, Biochem Pharmacol (1998) 55:1315–1325, Drug Metab Pharmacokinet (2003) 18:42–47, Nat Biotechnol (1997) 15:784–788; Metab Eng (2000) 2:115–125]. Intact cells and isolated membranes obtained from 10-L fermentations were used to establish an efficient bioconversion system for the generation of metabolites. To demonstrate the utility of this approach, known metabolites of the anabolic steroid testosterone, the anti-inflammatory agent diclofenac and the analgesic agent phenacetin, were generated using 3A4, 2C9 and 1A2, respectively. The reaction conditions were optimized for pH, temperature, DO concentration, use of co-solvent and glucose supplementation. Conversion yields of 29–93% were obtained from 1-L reactions, enabling isolation of 59 mg 6-hydroxytestosterone, 110 mg 4-hydroxydiclofenac and 88 mg acetaminophen.  相似文献

Target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) has a key role in cellular regulations in response to environmental conditions. In yeast, Tip41 downregulates TORC1 signaling via activation of PP2A phosphatase. We show here that overexpression of TIPRL, a mammalian Tip41, suppressed dephosphorylation of mechanistic TORC1 (mTORC1) substrates under amino acid withdrawal, and knockdown of TIPRL conversely attenuated phosphorylation of those substrates after amino acid refeeding. TIPRL associated with the catalytic subunit of PP2A (PP2Ac), which was required for the TIPRL action on mTORC1 signaling. Collectively, unlike yeast TIP41, TIPRL has a positive effect on mTORC1 signaling through the association with PP2Ac.  相似文献

The eukaryotic replisome is a crucial determinant of genome stability, but its structure is still poorly understood. We found previously that many regulatory proteins assemble around the MCM2‐7 helicase at yeast replication forks to form the replisome progression complex (RPC), which might link MCM2‐7 to other replisome components. Here, we show that the RPC associates with DNA polymerase α that primes each Okazaki fragment during lagging strand synthesis. Our data indicate that a complex of the GINS and Ctf4 components of the RPC is crucial to couple MCM2‐7 to DNA polymerase α. Others have found recently that the Mrc1 subunit of RPCs binds DNA polymerase epsilon, which synthesises the leading strand at DNA replication forks. We show that cells lacking both Ctf4 and Mrc1 experience chronic activation of the DNA damage checkpoint during chromosome replication and do not complete the cell cycle. These findings indicate that coupling MCM2‐7 to replicative polymerases is an important feature of the regulation of chromosome replication in eukaryotes, and highlight a key role for Ctf4 in this process.  相似文献
