Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptors belong to G protein-coupled transmembrane receptors and mediate a variety of cellular responses through the binding of LPA. So far, six types of LPA receptors (LPA receptor-1 (LPA1) to LPA6) have been identified. Recently, it has been demonstrated that each LPA receptor has opposite effects on malignant property of cancer cells. In this study, to evaluate an involvement of LPA receptors on angiogenic process in mammary tumor cells, we generated Lpar1- and Lpar3-expressing (FM3A-a1 and FM3A-a3A9, respectively) cells from FM3A cells, and investigated the effects on cell proliferation and migration abilities of endothelial F-2 cells by those cells. In Vegf-A and Vegf-C genes, FM3A-a1 cells indicated high expression and FM3A-a3A9 cells showed low expression, compared with control cells. When F-2 cells were cultured with a supernatant from FM3A-a1 cells, the cell growth rate and migration ability of F-2 cells was significantly higher than control cells. By contrast, a supernatant from FM3A-a3A9 cells significantly inhibited those abilities of F-2 cells. These results suggest that LPA1 and LPA3 may play opposite roles on the regulation of endothelial cells in mouse mammary tumor FM3A cells. 相似文献

A new series of imidazopyridine CB2 agonists is described. Structural optimization improved CB2/CB1 selectivity in this series and conferred physical properties that facilitated high in vivo exposure, both centrally and peripherally. Administration of a highly selective CB2 agonist in a rat model of analgesia was ineffective despite substantial CNS exposure, while administration of a moderately selective CB2/CB1 agonist exhibited significant analgesic effects. 相似文献

MicroRNAs (miRNA) play important roles in neuroinflammation and neuropathic pain development; however, the underlying mechanism requires further investigation. The expression of miR-21-5p was remarkably upregulated in chronic constrictive injury (CCI) rat model. A significant alleviated neuropathic pain development and reduced the expression of cytokines was observed in CCI rat after exogenous injection of miR-21-5p mimic. The dual-luciferase analysis revealed that tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-3 (TIMP3) and chemokines C-C motif ligand 1 (CCL1) was direct downstream target of miR-21-5p. Moreover, silencing of TIMP3 and CCL1 could rescue mechanical allodynia, thermal hyperalgesia and cytokine release in CCI rat, suggesting that TIMP3 and CCL1 exert their function by mediating neuroinflammation in neuropathic pain development. Therefore, we have identified a novel miR-21-5p–CCL1/TIMP3-cytokine axis in regulation of neuropathic pain development in CCI rat model, which is valuable for enhancing our understanding of neuropathic pain and developing miRNAs as potential therapeutic options in the future. 相似文献

The effects of β-adrenergic agonists and antagonists on the pigmentary state of denervated melanophores in isolated, split, caudal fins of the goby Tridentiger obscurus were examined to investigate the function and the subtype of the β-adrenoceptors of the melanophores. Salbutamol, terbutaline, and dobutamine partially inhibited the pigment-aggregating response of melanophores to norepinephrine. The effects of these β-agonists were inhibited by propranolol. It was confirmed that the melanophores possess both α-and β-adrenoceptors, and that the activation of the β-adrenoceptors induces the dispersion of pigment in the melanophores. Norepinephrine, epinephrine, isoproterenol, dobutamine, salbutamol, and terbutaline evoked the dispersion of pigment in the melanophores in which pigment had previously been aggregated by treatment with verapamil in the presence of phentolamine. The pigment-dispersing effects of two β1-selective agonists, norepinephrine and dobutamine, were effectively inhibited by metoprolol, a selective antagonist of β1-receptors. By contrast, the pigment-dispersing effects of two β2-selective agonists, salbutamol and terbutaline, were not inhibited by metoprolol. Both the effects of nonselective agonists, epinephrine and isoproterenol, were partially inhibited by metoprolol. The actions of all of the β-agonists used were effectively inhibited by propranolol, and they were partially inhibited by butoxamine. These results suggest coexistence of β1- and β2-adrenoceptors in the melanophores. The relative numbers of β1- and β2-adrenoreceptors as a percentage of the total population of β-adrenoceptors were estimated to be 18.6% and 81.4%, respectively, from analyses of Hofstee plots of the effects of the β-agonists on the melanophores in the presence of butoxamine or metoprolol. 相似文献

We recently reported that CXCL8((3-73))K11R is a high affinity agonist of neutrophil activation and chemotactic responses. In this report we employed CXCL8((3-73))K11R as a template to generate CXCL8/IL-8 analogues with antagonist activities, using site-directed mutagenesis to introduce conservative amino acid substitutions into the first turn within the molecule's beta-pleated sheet region (G31P, P32G) and, in association with these, into the putative receptor-recognition site (T12S, H13F, F17S). We then examined their impact on the analogues' biological activities and found that a G31P substitution rendered CXCL8((3-73))K11R a high affinity antagonist of CXCL8/IL-8. The ranking (in the order of decreasing CXCL8/IL-8 antagonist activities) of the CXCL8((3-73))K11R analogues we generated was, G31P>T12S/G31P>H13F/G31P>T12S/H13F/G31P>P32G approximately T12S/P32G approximately H13F/P32G>T12S/H13F/P32G; CXCL8((3-73))K11R/F17S did not inhibit CXCL8/IL-8-dependent responses. CXCL8((3-73))K11R/G31P had no discernible agonist (beta-glucuronidase release, chemotactic) activity, but at 12.5 ng/ml it bound to purified neutrophils more avidly than did 1.25 microg/ml CXCL8/IL-8. Furthermore, CXCL8((3-73))K11R/G31P competitively antagonized the binding of CXCR1- and CXCR2-specific antibodies to these receptors. Taken together, these data thus provide further impetus to the study of the potential efficacy of CXCL8((3-73))K11R/G31P as a broad-spectrum antagonist of the ELR-CXC chemokines in experimental and clinical settings. 相似文献

Recently, increasing evidence has indicated lncRNAs are powerful regulators in the progression of multiple tumors. Dysregulation of lncRNA NEAT1 has been recognized in many cancer types. Meanwhile, the studies on NEAT1 function have suggested that NEAT1 can serve as a crucial oncogene. Nevertheless, the investigation of NEAT1 in colon cancer is still few. In our study, the function of NEAT1 was studied in colon cancer. As we observed, NEAT1 level was obviously elevated in colon cancer cells. Then, HCT-116 and SW620 cells were stably infected with shRNA-NEAT1 for 48 hr. As exhibited, silence of NEAT1 could greatly repress colon cancer cell progression. Apoptosis of colon cancer cells was triggered and the cell cycle progression was remarkably inhibited by downregulation of NEAT1. Interestingly, as exhibited, miR-495-3p was obviously decreased in colon cancer cells and it significantly suppressed colon cancer progression. Subsequently, miR-495-3p was predicted as a target of NEAT1. CDK6 was speculated as the target of miR-495-3p and miR-495-3p modulated its expression negatively. Finally, it was indicated that NEAT1 promoted colon cancer development through modulating miR-495-3p and CDK6 in vivo. Taken these together, we reported that NEAT1 could sponge miR-495-3p to contribute to colon cancer progression through activating CDK6. 相似文献

Chemokines and their receptors have been studied in several solid tumor models as mediators of inflammation. In turn, inflammation has been implicated in the promotion and progression of tumors, and as such, chemokines have been proposed as novel molecular targets for chemotherapy. While the expression of these molecules has been described in tumor cells, endothelial cells, macrophages and neutrophils, less attention has been paid to the expression profile of these molecules by T lymphocytes in the periphery or infiltrating the tumor. Using the D1-DMBA-3 murine mammary adenocarcinoma model, we aimed to better characterize the differential expression of chemokines and/or their receptors in the host and in the tumor microenvironment, and specifically, in the T cells of tumor-bearing mice compared to normal control animals. We found that T lymphocytes from tumor-bearing mice express the pro-inflammatory chemokines, CCL2, CCL5 and CXCL2, as well as the chemokine receptors, CCR1, CCR2, CCR3 and CXCR2. 相似文献

Obesity-related metabolic abnormalities, including chronic inflammation and oxidative stress, increase the risk of colorectal cancer. Dysregulation of the renin–angiotensin system (RAS) also plays a critical role in obesity-related metabolic disorders and in several types of carcinogenesis. In the present study, we examined the effects of an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor and angiotensin-II type 1 receptor blocker (ARB), both of which inhibit the RAS, on the development of azoxymethane (AOM)-initiated colonic premalignant lesions in C57BL/KsJ-db/db (db/db) obese mice. Male db/db mice were given 4 weekly subcutaneous injections of AOM (15 mg/kg body weight), and then, they received drinking water containing captopril (ACE inhibitor, 5 mg/kg/day) or telmisartan (ARB, 5 mg/kg/day) for 7 weeks. At sacrifice, administration of either captopril or telmisartan significantly reduced the total number of colonic premalignant lesions, i.e., aberrant crypt foci and β-catenin accumulated crypts, compared to that observed in the control group. The expression levels of TNF-α mRNA in the colonic mucosa of AOM-treated db/db mice were decreased by captopril and telmisartan. Captopril lowered the expression levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and PAI-1 mRNAs, while telmisartan lowered the expression levels of COX-2, IL-1β, IL-6, and PAI-1 mRNAs in the white adipose tissues of these mice. In addition, these agents significantly reduced the levels of urinary 8-OHdG, a surrogate marker of oxidative damage to DNA, in the experimental mice. These findings suggested that both ACE inhibitor and ARB suppress chemically-induced colon carcinogenesis by attenuating chronic inflammation and reducing oxidative stress in obese mice. Therefore, targeting dysregulation of the RAS might be an effective strategy for chemoprevention of colorectal carcinogenesis in obese individuals. 相似文献

Leptin regulates energy homeostasis primarily by binding and activating its long form receptor (LRb). Deficiency of either leptin or LRb causes morbid obesity. Leptin stimulates LRb-associated JAK2, thus initiating multiple pathways including the Stat3 and phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase pathways that mediate leptin biological actions. Here we report that SH2-B, a JAK2-interacting protein, promotes activation of the PI 3-kinase pathway by recruiting insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) and IRS2 in response to leptin. SH2-B directly bound, via its PH and SH2 domain, to both IRS1 and IRS2 both in vitro and in intact cells and mediated formation of a JAK2/SH2-B/IRS1 or IRS2 tertiary complex. Consequently, SH2-B dramatically enhanced leptin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS1 and IRS2 in HEK293 cells stably expressing LRb, thus promoting association of IRS1 and IRS2 with the p85 regulatory subunit of PI 3-kinase and phosphorylation and activation of Akt. SH2-B mutants with lower affinity for IRS1 and IRS2 exhibited reduced ability to promote association of JAK2 with IRS1, tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS1, and association of IRS1 with p85 in response to leptin. Moreover, deletion of the SH2-B gene impaired leptin-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of endogenous IRS1 in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF), which was reversed by reintroduction of SH2-B. Similarly, SH2-B promoted growth hormone-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS1 in both HEK293 and MEF cells. Our data suggest that SH2-B is a novel mediator of the PI 3-kinase pathway in response to leptin or other hormones and cytokines that activate JAK2. 相似文献

In recent studies performed in our laboratory we have shown that acute administration of (-)-linalool, the natural occurring enantiomer in essential oils, possesses anti-inflammatory, antihyperalgesic and antinociceptive effects in different animal models. The antihyperalgesic and antinociceptive effects of (-)-linalool have been ascribed to its capacity in stimulating the opioidergic, cholinergic and dopaminergic systems, as well as to its interaction with K+ channels, or to its local anaesthetic activity and/or to the negative modulation of glutamate transmission. Activation of A1 or A2A receptors has been shown to induce antinociceptive effects, and the possible involvement of adenosine in (-)-linalool antinociceptive effect, has not been elucidated yet. Therefore, in the present study, we have investigated the effects of 1,3-dipropyl-8-cyclopentylxanthine (DPCPX), a selective adenosine A1 receptor antagonist and the effects of 3,7-dimethyl-1-propargilxanthine (DMPX), a selective adenosine A2A receptor antagonist on the antinociception of (-)-linalool in mice, measured in the hot-plate test. Both DPCPX (0.1 mg/kg; i.p.) and DMPX (0.1 mg/kg; i.p.) pre-treatment significantly depressed the antinociceptive effect of (-)-linalool at the highest doses tested. These findings demonstrated that the effect of (-)-linalool on pain responses is, at least partially, mediated by the activity of adenosine A1 and A2A receptors. 相似文献

CD6 is a lymphocyte glycoprotein receptor that physically associates with the antigen-specific receptor complex at the center of the immunological synapse, where it interacts with its ligand CD166/ALCAM. The present work reports the carbohydrate-dependent interaction of CD6 and CD166/ALCAM with Galectin-1 and -3, two well-known soluble mammalian lectins. Both galectins interfered with superantigen-induced T cell proliferation and cell adhesion phenomena mediated by the CD6-CD166/ALCAM pair, while CD6 expression protected cells from galectin-induced apoptosis. The results suggest that interaction of Galectin-1 and -3 with CD6 and CD166/ALCAM might modulate some relevant aspects of T cell physiology. 相似文献

Nitrosamine 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) is formed by nitrosation of nicotine and has been identified as the most potent carcinogen contained in cigarette smoke. NNK significantly contributes to smoking-related lung cancer, but the molecular mechanism remains enigmatic. Bcl2 and c-Myc are two major oncogenic proteins that cooperatively promote tumor development. We report here that NNK simultaneously stimulates Bcl2 phosphorylation exclusively at Ser(70) and c-Myc at Thr(58) and Ser(62) through activation of both ERK1/2 and PKCalpha, which is required for NNK-induced survival and proliferation of human lung cancer cells. Treatment of cells with staurosporine or PD98059 blocks both Bcl2 and c-Myc phosphorylation and results in suppression of NNK-induced proliferation. Specific depletion of c-Myc expression by RNA interference retards G(1)/S cell cycle transition and blocks NNK-induced cell proliferation. Phosphorylation of Bcl2 at Ser(70) promotes a direct interaction between Bcl2 and c-Myc in the nucleus and on the outer mitochondrial membrane that significantly enhances the half-life of the c-Myc protein. Thus, NNK-induced functional cooperation of Bcl2 and c-Myc in promoting cell survival and proliferation may occur in a novel mechanism involving their phosphorylation, which may lead to development of human lung cancer and/or chemoresistance. 相似文献

We identified 4-fluoro-N-[4-[6-(isopropylamino)pyrimidin-4-yl]-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]-N-methylbenzamide 27 as a potent mGluR1 antagonist. The compound possessed excellent subtype selectivity and good PK profile in rats. It also demonstrated relatively potent antipsychotic-like effects in several animal models. Suitable for development as a PET tracer, compound 27 would have great potential for elucidation of mGluR1 functions in human. 相似文献
