Abstract: Lactate dehydrogenase and aldolase activity were reduced in lateral gastrocnemius muscle from two mouse mutants, A2G- adr and 129Re- dy , with abnormal muscle function. The activities of both of these enzymes were significantly reduced in the lateral gastrocnemius muscle from the A2G- adr mice at ages varying from 2 weeks to 32 weeks, whereas the activities in the soleus, heart, liver, and brain were the same as in the control animals. The lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes in the lateral gastrocnemius and soleus muscles from the A2G mice were quantified, and although those of the soleus were comparable in mutant and control muscle, the lateral gastrocnemius from the adr mutant had reduced activity of LDH 5 and increased activities of the other four isoenzymes. The findings suggest that the adr mutation is expressed in the white (Type II) muscle fibres and not in the red (Type I) fibres or in any of the organs studied. It is suggested that the initiation of differentiation into Type II fibres from the embryonic form is absent or delayed in the A2G mutant. The reduced activities of lactate dehydrogenase and aldolase in 129Re- dy muscle confirm the findings of other workers. 相似文献

The lipids of gastrocnemius muscle from normal and dystrophic (dy) mice of the Bar Harbor, 129Re strain were studied. Animals were fed diets containing either 3.1% or 1.1% of total calories as linoleic acid. Lipid analyses were also done on muscle from a new mouse mutant, A2G-adr, which has abnormal muscle function, characterised by an arrested development of the righting response. These animals were fed the "high" linoleic acid diet only. Total lipid, triacylglycerol, and cholesterol were elevated in the 129Re-dy irrespective of the diet, whereas A2G-adr possessed significantly higher levels of cholesterol. Total phosphorus (micrograms P/g muscle) and cholesterol/phospholipid ratios were elevated in the dy strains only. Cardiolipin was raised in the dy ("low" linoleic diet) and adr muscle, whereas phosphatidylcholine was lower in the adr strain only. Linoleic acid esterified to phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylserine was elevated whereas arachidonic acid in phosphatidylserine was decreased in both mutants. Docosahexanoic acid (22:6) in all three dy phospholipids was decreased, independent of dietary treatment. The adr strain possessed normal levels of this fatty acid. The results specifically point to an abnormality in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism in gastrocnemius muscle in the 129Re-dy mutant; in the adr mutant they could reflect an abnormal increase in the number of muscle mitochondria. 相似文献

myo-Inositol is an essential biomolecule that is synthesized by myo-inositol monophosphatase (IMPase) from inositol monophosphate species. The enzymatic activity of IMPase is inhibited by lithium, a drug used for the treatment of mood swings seen in bipolar disorder. Therefore, myo-inositol is thought to have an important role in the mechanism of bipolar disorder, although the details remain elusive. We screened an ethyl nitrosourea mutant mouse library for IMPase gene (Impa) mutations and identified an Impa1 T95K missense mutation. The mutant protein possessed undetectable enzymatic activity. Homozygotes died perinatally, and E18.5 embryos exhibited striking developmental defects, including hypoplasia of the mandible and asymmetric fusion of ribs to the sternum. Perinatal lethality and morphological defects in homozygotes were rescued by dietary myo-inositol. Rescued homozygotes raised on normal drinking water after weaning exhibited a hyper-locomotive trait and prolonged circadian periods, as reported in rodents treated with lithium. Our mice should be advantageous, compared with those generated by the conventional gene knock-out strategy, because they carry minimal genomic damage, e.g. a point mutation. In conclusion, our results reveal critical roles for intracellular myo-inositol synthesis in craniofacial development and the maintenance of proper brain function. Furthermore, this mouse model for cellular inositol depletion could be beneficial for understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying the clinical effect of lithium and myo-inositol-mediated skeletal development. 相似文献

Cytochromes P450 (CYP) from the 2A subfamily are known for their roles in the metabolism of nicotine, the addictive agent in tobacco, and activation of the tobacco procarcinogen 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK). Although both the hepatic CYP2A6 and respiratory CYP2A13 enzymes metabolize these compounds, CYP2A13 does so with much higher catalytic efficiency, but the structural basis for this has been unclear. X-ray structures of nicotine complexes with CYP2A13 (2.5 Å) and CYP2A6 (2.3 Å) yield a structural rationale for the preferential binding of nicotine to CYP2A13. Additional structures of CYP2A13 with NNK reveal either a single NNK molecule in the active site with orientations corresponding to metabolites known to form DNA adducts and initiate lung cancer (2.35 Å) or with two molecules of NNK bound (2.1 Å): one in the active site and one in a more distal staging site. Finally, in contrast to prior CYP2A structures with enclosed active sites, CYP2A13 conformations were solved that adopt both open and intermediate conformations resulting from an ∼2.5 Å movement of the F to G helices. This channel occurs in the same region where the second, distal NNK molecule is bound, suggesting that the channel may be used for ligand entry and/or exit from the active site. Altogether these structures provide multiple new snapshots of CYP2A13 conformations that assist in understanding the binding and activation of an important human carcinogen, as well as critical comparisons in the binding of nicotine, one of the most widely used and highly addictive drugs in human use. 相似文献

Little is known on the cryopreservation of mouse pronuclear (PN) stage embryos. In the present experiment the mouse 2-PN stage embryos were cryopreserved by conventional freezing, straw, or open-pulled straw (OPS) vitrificaiton methods. The conventional freezing solution was 1.5 mol/L ethylene glycol (EG), and vitrification solutions were EFS30 (30% EG, Ficoll, and sucrose), EFS40 (40% EG, Ficoll, and sucrose), EDFS30 (15% EG, 15%dimethyl sulfoxide [DMSO], Ficoll, and sucrose), or EDFS40 (20% EG, 20%DMSO, Ficoll, and sucrose). The blastocyst rate of 2-PN stage embryos cryopreserved by conventional method (30.4%) was lower than those vitrified by straw method with EDFS (56.9% to 69.1%), by OPS method (66.0% to 85.7%), and that of control (80.8%) (P < 0.05). With a given vitrificaiton solution EFS30, EFS40, EDFS30, or EDFS40, the blastocyst rate of embryos vitrified by the OPS method (66.7%, 66.0%, 85.7%, or 76.9%) was higher than that of those vitrified by the straw method (46.8%, 43.8%, 69.1%, or 56.9%) (P < 0.05). When mouse 2-PN-stage embryos were vitrified with EDFS30 by straw or OPS method, the highest blastocyst rate was achieved (69.1% or 85.7%) and was similar to that of the control, respectively. The embryos transfer results revealed that the full-term development of blastocysts derived from 2-PN stage embryos vitrified by OPS method with EDFS30 (19.9%) was similar to that of the control (23.5%), and higher than that of those cryopreserved by conventional freezing (9.3%) (P < 0.05). The present research demonstrates that the OPS method, especially with EDFS30, is more effective in cryopreserving mouse 2-PN embryos. 相似文献

Abstract: Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity was measured in brains, livers, and hearts of 23–26-month-old and 3-month-old rats. A significant increase of ALDH activity was found in whole brain of old rats with both acetaldehyde (39%) and propionylaldehyde (15%) used as substrates. In different brain areas of old rats, with acetaldehyde used as substrate, a significant increase of ALDH activity was found in striatum (30–50%) and cerebral cortex (37%). However, no significant difference in ALDH activity was found in livers and hearts of young and old rats. Preliminary experiments showed a significant increase of aldehyde reductase activity (52%) with p -nitrobenzaldehyde used as substrate in whole brain of old rats compared with young rats. The present work indicates that an increase of ALDH activity in brain of old rats may be an adaptive phenomenon. 相似文献

Abstract: Using immunocytochemical localization, the distribution of the glycine transporters GLYT1 and GLYT2 in the developing mouse brain was studied. GLYT1 and GLYT2 immunoreactivity begins during the period of fiber outgrow and synaptogenesis. GLYT2 is first expressed in spinal and spinothalamic white matter and is followed by the expression of synaptophysin. In the postnatal stages, GLYT2 staining in the white matter disappears, and a punctuated pattern in the gray matter emerges. In contrast, in the fetal brain GLYT1 immunoreactivity coincides with gray matter neuropil and processes of radial glia. GLYT1 is distributed over a much wider area of the brain than GLYT2. However, the distribution of these two GLYTs implies that GLYT1 and GLYT2 operate in concert within the area where both are present. At the day 12 embryo stage, GLYT1 antibodies stain the liver, and later they also react with the pancreas and the gastroduodenal junction. No other organs exhibit significant GLYT1 immunoreactivity. We additionally observed the presence of GLYT1 in rat fetal cerebral cortex and hippocampus, which was not detected in fetal mouse brain. Moreover, GLYT1 immunoreactivity was found in the mouse floor plate and the ventral commissure but was not present in the same regions in rats. These findings suggest possible differences in the expression of GLYT1 between these two species. 相似文献

Pyroglutamate-modified Aβ (AβpE3-42) peptides are gaining considerable attention as potential key players in the pathology of Alzheimer disease (AD) due to their abundance in AD brain, high aggregation propensity, stability, and cellular toxicity. Overexpressing AβpE3-42 induced a severe neuron loss and neurological phenotype in TBA2 mice. In vitro and in vivo experiments have recently proven that the enzyme glutaminyl cyclase (QC) catalyzes the formation of AβpE3-42. The aim of the present work was to analyze the role of QC in an AD mouse model with abundant AβpE3-42 formation. 5XFAD mice were crossed with transgenic mice expressing human QC (hQC) under the control of the Thy1 promoter. 5XFAD/hQC bigenic mice showed significant elevation in TBS, SDS, and formic acid-soluble AβpE3-42 peptides and aggregation in plaques. In 6-month-old 5XFAD/hQC mice, a significant motor and working memory impairment developed compared with 5XFAD. The contribution of endogenous QC was studied by generating 5XFAD/QC-KO mice (mouse QC knock-out). 5XFAD/QC-KO mice showed a significant rescue of the wild-type mice behavioral phenotype, demonstrating the important contribution of endogenous mouse QC and transgenic overexpressed QC. These data clearly demonstrate that QC is crucial for modulating AβpE3-42 levels in vivo and prove on a genetic base the concept that reduction of QC activity is a promising new therapeutic approach for AD. 相似文献

Recently, an increasing number of studies have shown that Lake Van—the biggest soda lake in the world—is polluted due to an increasing population. Studies have shown abnormalities in the Lake Van fish (Chalcalburnus tarichi), the sole fish species that inhabits the lake. Unlike the vitellogenic and mature oocytes in normal gonads, abnormal gonads show large amounts of connective tissue and young oocytes. In this study, metal levels (nickel [Ni], copper [Cu], cobalt [Co], iron [Fe], zinc [Zn], cadmium [Cd], lead [Pb], and manganese [Mn]) in the muscle, liver, gill, intestine, and gonad of Lake Van fish with normal and abnormal gonads were assessed. Further, the metal contents in the wastewater from the wastewater treatment facility situated near Lake Van in Van City were assessed. All the metal levels, except that of Zn, were high in the Lake Van environment (P?<?0.05). The highest metal content in the tissues was for Fe, while the lowest level was for Co. The Pb level was found to be very high in both fish groups. Cd was not found in the tissues of both fish groups. The levels of Fe, Cu, Pb, and Mn were not significant in the tissues of both normal and abnormal fish groups. Zn level was significantly high in the livers and gonads of fish with abnormal gonads, and Co level was significantly high only in the livers (P?<?0.05). Consequently, high levels of Zn in the liver and gonads and high levels of Co in the liver may be factors causing the abnormal gonads in the Lake Van fish. 相似文献

The mouse neuroblastoma cell line NB2A produces cellular and secreted acetylcholinesterase (AChE). After incubation of the cells for 4 days the ratio between AChE secreted into the medium and AChE in the cells was 1:1. The cell-associated enzyme could be subdivided into soluble AChE (25%) and detergent-soluble AChE (75%). Both extracts contained predominantly monomeric AChE (4.6S) and minor amounts of tetrameric AChE (10.6S), whereas the secreted AChE in the culture supernatant contained only the tetrameric form. All forms were partially purified by affinity chromatography. It could be demonstrated that the secretory and the intracellular soluble tetramers were hydrophilic, whereas the detergent-soluble tetramer was an amphiphilic protein. On the other hand the soluble and the detergent-soluble monomeric forms were amphiphilic and their activity depended on the presence of detergent. By digestion with proteinase K amphiphilic monomeric and tetrameric AChE could be converted to a hydrophilic form that no longer required detergent for catalytic activity. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of [3H]diisopropylfluorophosphate-labelled AChE gave one band at 64 kilodaltons (kD) under reducing conditions and two additional bands at 120 kD and 140 kD under nonreducing conditions. 相似文献

Abstract: 5'Nucleotidase and Na+ ,K+ -ATPase are very probably myelin-associated enzymes, although not specific for this membrane. Thus, it is important to determine their activity in dysmyelinating mutants in either CNS (quaking, jimpy, shiverer, and mld) or PNS (Trembler). CNS: The activity of 5'nucleotidase was lower in mouse than in rat (10.5 and 28.0 nmol/min/mg protein in brain, respectively). In mouse myelin, the activity was 30 nmol/min/mg protein (and 72 in rat myelin). In mutants, the brain activity was very close to normal. In contrast, ATPase, the activity of which was higher in myelin as compared with forebrain homogenate, presented a reduced activity in various 21-day-old and adult mutants, except Trembler. It was normal in 8-day-old quaking and in cerebella from mutants. PNS: ATPase was lower than in brain and reduced in most mutants, this being expected for Trembler and quaking but not for shiverer and mld. 5'-Nucleotidase activity was higher compared with that in brain homogenate (relatively stable between 10-day postnatal and adult). It was affected in the mutants; in Trembler it was nearly normal in young animals but increased during development. Thus in Trembler, two different myelin-related enzymes and a myelin-specific enzyme (CNPase) presented different developmental patterns: ATPase was always reduced, 5'-nucleotidase was normal, and CNPase was slightly below normal in young (68% of the control value); CNPase activity declined during development but 5'-nucleotidase increased (42% and 190% of the control in 60-day-old animals). It is necessary to consider these results in parallel with alterations in the PNS because of Schwann cell abnormalities. Thus, determination of these two enzymes will provide a useful tool to study myelination and myelin assembly under both normal and pathological conditions. 相似文献
