Because of its crucial role in various cellular processes, the proteasome is the focus of intensive research for the development of proteasome inhibitors to treat cancer and autoimmune diseases. Here, we describe a new and easy assay to measure the different proteasome activities in vitro (chymotrypsin-like, caspase-like, and trypsin-like) based on proteasome capture on antibody-coated plates, namely the capture proteasome assay (CAPA). Applying the CAPA to lysates from cells expressing standard proteasome, immunoproteasome, or intermediate proteasomes β5i or β1i–β5i, we can monitor the activity of the four proteasome subtypes. The CAPA provided similar results as the standard whole-cell proteasome–Glo assay without the problem of contaminating proteases requiring inhibitors. However, the profile of trypsin-like activity differed between the two assays. This could be partly explained by the presence of MgSO4 in the proteasome–Glo buffer, which inhibits the trypsin-like activity of the proteasome. The CAPA does not need MgSO4 and, therefore, provides a more precise measurement of the trypsin-like activity. The CAPA provides a quick and accurate method to measure proteasome activity in vitro in a very specific manner and should be useful for the development of proteasome inhibitors. 相似文献

Skeletal myopathy is a hallmark of heart failure (HF) and has been associated with a poor prognosis. HF and other chronic degenerative diseases share a common feature of a stressed system: sympathetic hyperactivity. Although beneficial acutely, chronic sympathetic hyperactivity is one of the main triggers of skeletal myopathy in HF. Considering that β2‐adrenoceptors mediate the activity of sympathetic nervous system in skeletal muscle, we presently evaluated the contribution of β2‐adrenoceptors for the morphofunctional alterations in skeletal muscle and also for exercise intolerance induced by HF. Male WT and β2‐adrenoceptor knockout mice on a FVB genetic background (β2KO) were submitted to myocardial infarction (MI) or SHAM surgery. Ninety days after MI both WT and β2KO mice presented to cardiac dysfunction and remodelling accompanied by significantly increased norepinephrine and epinephrine plasma levels, exercise intolerance, changes towards more glycolytic fibres and vascular rarefaction in plantaris muscle. However, β2KO MI mice displayed more pronounced exercise intolerance and skeletal myopathy when compared to WT MI mice. Skeletal muscle atrophy of infarcted β2KO mice was paralleled by reduced levels of phosphorylated Akt at Ser 473 while increased levels of proteins related with the ubiquitin‐–proteasome system, and increased 26S proteasome activity. Taken together, our results suggest that lack of β2‐adrenoceptors worsen and/or anticipate the skeletal myopathy observed in HF. 相似文献

Mycobacterium tuberculosis possesses a proteasome system that is required for the microbe to resist elimination by the host immune system. Despite the importance of the proteasome in the pathogenesis of tuberculosis, the molecular mechanisms by which proteasome activity is controlled remain largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that the α-subunit (PrcA) of the M. tuberculosis proteasome is phosphorylated by the PknB kinase at three threonine residues (T84, T202, and T178) in a sequential manner. Furthermore, the proteasome with phosphorylated PrcA enhances the degradation of Ino1, a known proteasomal substrate, suggesting that PknB regulates the proteolytic activity of the proteasome. Previous studies showed that depletion of the proteasome and the proteasome-associated proteins decreases resistance to reactive nitrogen intermediates (RNIs) but increases resistance to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Here we show that PknA phosphorylation of unprocessed proteasome β-subunit (pre-PrcB) and α-subunit reduces the assembly of the proteasome complex and thereby enhances the mycobacterial resistance to H2O2 and that H2O2 stress diminishes the formation of the proteasome complex in a PknA-dependent manner. These findings indicate that phosphorylation of the M. tuberculosis proteasome not only modulates proteolytic activity of the proteasome, but also affects the proteasome complex formation contributing to the survival of M. tuberculosis under oxidative stress conditions. 相似文献

The development of specific inhibitors of the proteasome represents an important opportunity for new drug therapies. The central role of the multicatalytic complex in the intracellular proteolysis mediated by ubiquitin-proteasome pathway goes to discovery many molecules able to selectively inhibits enzymatic active subsites. Now, we report synthesis and activity of a new partial retro-inverso oligopseudopeptide derivatives bearing a trans,trans-muconic acid ethyl ester pharmacophoric unit at the C-terminal. Some analogues selectively inhibited in µM range the caspase-like (C-L) activity in the β1 subunit of the proteasome. 相似文献

Starting from a tripeptide screening hit, a series of dipeptide inhibitors of the proteasome with Thr as the P3 residue has been optimized with the aid of crystal structures in complex with the β-5/6 active site of y20S. Derivative 25, (β5 IC50 = 7.4 nM) inhibits only the chymotryptic activity of the proteasome, shows cellular activity against targets in the UPS, and inhibits proliferation. 相似文献

The Wnt/β-catenin pathway controls developmental processes and homeostasis; however, abnormal activation of this pathway has been linked to several human diseases. Recent reports have demonstrated regulation of platelet function by canonical and non-canonical Wnt signalling. Platelet aggregation plays a crucial role in haemostasis and thrombosis. Here we report for the first time that, induction of sustained aggregation of platelets by a strong agonist in the presence of calcium was associated with nearly complete proteolysis of β-catenin, which was abrogated upon depletion of calcium from platelet suspension. β-catenin cleavage was disallowed in absence of aggregation, thus implicating integrin αIIbβ3 engagement in β-catenin proteolysis. Degradation of β-catenin was blocked partially by inhibitors of either proteasome or calpain and completely when cells were exposed to both the inhibitors. Protein kinase C inhibition, too, abolished β-catenin degradation. Thus activities of proteasome, calpain and protein kinase C regulate stabilization of β-catenin in aggregated human platelets. 相似文献

The proteasome is a nuclear‐cytoplasmic proteolytic complex involved in nearly all regulatory pathways in plant cells. The three different catalytic activities of the proteasome can have different functions, but tools to monitor and control these subunits selectively are not yet available in plant science. Here, we introduce subunit‐selective inhibitors and dual‐color fluorescent activity‐based probes for studying two of the three active catalytic subunits of the plant proteasome. We validate these tools in two model plants and use this to study the proteasome during plant–microbe interactions. Our data reveal that Nicotiana benthamiana incorporates two different paralogs of each catalytic subunit into active proteasomes. Interestingly, both β1 and β5 activities are significantly increased upon infection with pathogenic Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 lacking hopQ1‐1 [PtoDC3000(ΔhQ)] whilst the activity profile of the β1 subunit changes. Infection with wild‐type PtoDC3000 causes proteasome activities that range from strongly induced β1 and β5 activities to strongly suppressed β5 activities, revealing that β1 and β5 activities can be uncoupled during bacterial infection. These selective probes and inhibitors are now available to the plant science community, and can be widely and easily applied to study the activity and role of the different catalytic subunits of the proteasome in different plant species. 相似文献

Thirty novel triaryl compounds were designed and synthesized based on the known proteasome inhibitor PI-1840. Most of them showed significant inhibition against the β5c subunit of human 20S proteasome, and five of them exhibited IC50 values at the sub-micromolar level, which were comparable to or even more potent than PI-1840. The most active two (1c and 1d) showed IC50 values of 0.12 and 0.18 μM against the β5c subunit, respectively, while they displayed no obvious inhibition against the β2c, β1c and β5i subunits. Molecular docking provided informative clues for the subunit selectivity. The potent and subunit selective proteasome inhibitors identified herein represent new chemical templates for further molecular optimization. 相似文献

Screening of the NCI Diversity Set-1 identified PI-083 (NSC-45382) a proteasome inhibitor selective for cancer over normal cells. Focused libraries of novel compounds based on PI-083 chloronaphthoquinone and sulfonamide moieties were synthesized to gain a better understanding of the structure–activity relationship responsible for chymotrypsin-like proteasome inhibitory activity. This led to the demonstration that the chloronaphthoquinone and the sulfonamide moieties are critical for inhibitory activity. The pyridyl group in PI-083 can be replaced with other heterocyclic groups without significant loss of activity. Molecular modeling studies were also performed to explore the detailed interactions of PI-083 and its derivatives with the β5 and β6 subunits of the 20S proteasome. The refined model showed an H-bond interaction between the Asp-114 and the sulfonamide moiety of the PI-083 in the β6 subunit. 相似文献

Proteasomes are the major enzyme complexes for non-lysosomal protein degradation in eukaryotic cells. Mammals express two sets of catalytic subunits: the constitutive subunits β1, β2 and β5 and the immunosubunits LMP2 (β1i), MECL-1 (β2i) and LMP7 (β5i). The LMP7-propeptide (proLMP7) is required for optimal maturation of LMP2/MECL-1-containing precursors to mature immunoproteasomes, but can also mediate efficient integration into mixed proteasomes containing β1 and β2. In contrast, the β5-propeptide (proβ5) has been suggested to promote preferential integration into β1/β2-containing precursors, consequently favouring the formation of constitutive proteasomes. Here, we show that proβ5 predominantly promotes integration into LMP2/MECL-1-containing precursors in IFNγ-stimulated, LMP7-deficient cells and infected LMP7-deficient mice. This demonstrates that proβ5 does not direct preferential integration into β1/β2-containing precursors, but instead promotes the formation of mixed LMP2/MECL-1/β5 proteasomes under inflammatory conditions. Moreover, the propeptides substantially differ in their capacity to promote proteasome maturation, with proLMP7 showing a significantly higher chaperone activity as compared to proβ5. Increased efficiency of proteasome maturation mediated by proLMP7 is required for optimal MHC class I cell surface expression and is equally important as the catalytic activity of immunoproteasomes. Intriguingly, induction of LMP7 by infection not only results in rapid exchange of constitutive by immunosubunits, as previously suggested, but also increases the total proteasome abundance within the infected tissue. Hence our data identify a novel LMP7-dependend mechanism to enhance the activity of the proteasome system in infection, which is based on the high chaperone activity of proLMP7 and relies on accelerated maturation of active proteasome complexes. 相似文献

A series of novel tripeptidyl epoxyketone derivatives constructed from β-amino acid were designed, synthesized and evaluated as proteasome inhibitors. All target compounds were tested for their proteasome inhibitory activities and selected compounds were tested for their anti-proliferation activities against two multiple myeloma (MM) cell lines RPMI 8226 and NCI-H929. Among them, eleven compounds exhibited proteasome inhibitory rates of more than 50% at the concentration of 1 μg/mL and nine compounds showed anti-proliferation activities with IC50 values at low micromolar level. Compound 20h displayed the most potent proteasome inhibitory activities (IC50: 0.11 ± 0.01 μM) and anti-proliferation activities with IC50 values at 0.23 ± 0.01 and 0.17 ± 0.02 μM against two tested cell lines. Additionally, the poly-ubiquitin accumulation in the western blot analysis supported that proteasome inhibition in a cellular system was induced by compound 20h. All these experimental results confirmed that β-amino acid can be introduced as a building block for the development of proteasome inhibitors. 相似文献

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterised by the accumulation of insoluble β-amyloid (Aβ) fibrils in the brain. Factors that promote Aβ fibrillogenesis may influence the pathogenesis of AD and represent targets for therapeutic intervention. Some Aβ deposited in AD may originate in the circulation and plasma factors could promote Aβ deposition, particularly in the cerebrovasculature. We investigated the effects of plasma low-density lipoprotein (LDL), in both its native and oxidised forms, on Aβ1–40 fibrillogenesis and vasoactivity. LDL enhanced Aβ fibrillogenesis in a process dependent on LDL concentration and the oxidative state of the lipoprotein, as indicated by measurements of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and conjugated dienes. LDL's actions were inhibited by the iAβ5 peptide, suggesting that LDL-induced Aβ polymerisation involved β-pleated sheet formation. Potentiated Aβ polymerisation was reflected by enhanced Aβ-mediated vascular responses. Human endothelial cells exposed to fibrillar Aβ generated with LDL, especially oxidised LDL, exhibited decreased 20S proteasome activity. Rat aortic ring constriction induced by noradrenaline was enhanced by Aβ fibrils generated with LDL, with oxidised LDL producing the more marked effects. Should plasma lipoproteins prove to play a role in cerebral Aβ deposition their modification with statins or antioxidants may offer therapeutic benefit. 相似文献

The capability for active movement in an extracellular matrix, wherein remodeling of the cytoskeleton by actin-binding proteins plays a significant role, may influence the metastatic potential of tumor cells. We studied the expression of actin-binding proteins and β-catenin in connection with proteasome and calpain functions in tissues of primary tumors and metastases of ovarian cancer. The chymotrypsin-like proteasome activity and calpain activity were shown to be significantly higher in ovarian cancer than in normal tissues. Furthermore, the activity of the proteasome and calpain were significantly higher in the peritoneal metastases in comparison with primary tumors. Correlation analysis showed the presence of a positive correlation between the activity of calpain and chymotrypsin-like proteasome activity (r = 0.82; p = 0.0005) in primary tumor tissue, whereas no such correlation was revealed in metastases. Contents of p45 Ser β-catenin and the actin-severing protein gelsolin were decreased in metastases relative to primary tumors. The level of the cofilin, functionally similar to gelsolin, was significantly higher in metastases compared to primary ovarian tumor tissue. In ovarian cancer, significant reduction in the number of an actin-monomer binder protein thymosin-β4 was observed in primary tumors and metastases as compared to normal tissues, but no significant differences between primary tumors and metastases were observed. In tissues of primary tumors, negative correlations were observed between the chymotrypsin-like activity of proteasomes and the amounts of p45 Ser β-catenin and protein Arp3, a member of the Arp2/3 complex. In metastasis, negative correlation was revealed between the activity of calpain and the content of Arp3, cofilin, and thymosin. The data obtained suggest that the mechanisms of proteolytic regulation of locomotor proteins in primary tumors and metastases in ovarian cancer are different. 相似文献

Many scorpion toxins that act on sodium channels (NaScTxs) have been characterized till date. These toxins may act modulating the inactivation or the activation of sodium channels and are named α- or β-types, respectively. Some venom toxins from Tityus obscurus (Buthidae), a scorpion widely distributed in the Brazilian Amazon, have been partially characterized in previous studies; however, little information about their electrophysiological role on sodium ion channels has been published. In the present study, we describe the purification, identification and electrophysiological characterization of a NaScTx, which was first described as Tc54 and further fully sequenced and renamed To4. This toxin shows a marked β-type effect on different sodium channel subtypes (hNav1.1–hNav1.7) at low concentrations, and has more pronounced activity on hNav1.1, hNav1.2 and hNav1.4. By comparing To4 primary structure with other Tityus β-toxins which have already been electrophysiologically tested, it is possible to establish some key amino acid residues for the sodium channel activity. Thus, To4 is the first toxin from T. obscurus fully electrophysiologically characterized on different human sodium channel isoforms. 相似文献

A series of β-carbolines possessing the aryl group at C-1 position has been synthesized from tryptophan. The newly synthesized compounds were screened for their in vitro anticancer activity against various human cancer cell lines by MTT assay. Some of them exhibited anticancer activity with IC50 values lower than 10 μM outdistanced the cisplatin level. Structure–activity relationship reveals that the alcohol substituents at C-3 position played an important role in inhibition activity. 相似文献

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) has been shown to attenuate muscle atrophy in cancer, starvation and hyperthermia by downregulating the increased expression of the ubiquitin-proteasome proteolytic pathway leading to a reduction in protein degradation. In the current study EPA (0.5 g/kg) administered to septic mice completely attenuated the increased protein degradation in skeletal muscle by preventing the increase in both gene expression and protein concentration of the α- and β-subunits of the 20S proteasome, as well as functional activity of the proteasome, as measured by the ‘chymotrypsin-like’ enzyme activity. These results suggest that muscle protein catabolism in sepsis is mediated by the same intracellular signalling pathways as found in other catabolic conditions. 相似文献

Glucose solutions incubated at low oxygen concentration gave rise to the appearance of an absorption band in the UVA-visible region after 10 days. Further characterization evidenced that this band was composed by a single chomophore with maximum absorption bands at 335 and 365 nm. HPLC/MS and UV spectroscopy assays indicated that this product is composed by five unities of furan. Importantly, the presence of a compound with identical spectral and chromatographic properties was observed in the water-soluble fraction of cataractous human eye lenses. The photo-biological effects of this glucose-derived chromophore (GDC) have been addressed using targets of biological relevance, such as water-soluble proteins from eye lens and the proteasome present in this protein mixture. Increased protein oxidation and protein crosslinking was observed when lens proteins were exposed to UVA-visible light in the presence of GDC under a 5% and 20% oxygen atmosphere. In addition, an increased proteasome peptidase activity was also observed. However, the use of D2O resulted in decreased proteasome activity, suggesting that singlet oxygen promotes the impairment of proteasome activity. Our results suggest that the species generated by Type I and Type II mechanisms have opposite effects on proteasome activity, being Type I a positive activator while Type II lead to impairment of proteasome function. 相似文献

AbstractUsing a variety of β-lactamases including those from Escherichia coli (TEM-1), Enterobacter cloacae P99 and Staphylococcus aureus the inhibition profiles (I50 values) were determined for various groups of compounds including penicillins, penicillanic acid derivatives (sulphone and β-halo substitutions), olivanic acids and clavulanic acid derivatives including substituted ethers and amines. Some of the latter compounds had higher activity than clavulanic acid with and without preincubation of enzyme with inhibitor but they still had poor activity against the P99 enzyme. Improvements in activity against Class I cephalosporinases were obtained with some derivatives of clavulanic acid but this was usually achieved at the expense of activity against clavulanate susceptible β-lactamases.The olivanic acids had the highest activity against the widest range of β-lactamases. 相似文献

The ubiquitin–proteasome pathway (UPP) influences essential cellular functions including cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis, signal transduction, antigen processing and inflammatory responses. The main proteolytic component of the UPP is the 26S proteasome, which is responsible for the turnover of many cellular proteins and represents an attractive target for the treatment of pathologies such as cancer, as well as inflammatory, immune and neurodegenerative diseases. Natural and synthetic proteasome inhibitors having different chemical structures and potency have been discovered. We report herein the synthesis, proteasome inhibition and modelling studies of novel C‐terminal isoxazoline vinyl ester pseudopeptides. Some new compounds that contain a C‐terminal extended conjugation inhibit β1 and especially β5 proteasomal catalytic subunits with IC50 values ranging from 10 to 100 µm . These results will permit further optimization based on these structural moieties to develop more active and selective molecules.

Thiazolidinediones are oral antidiabetic agents that activate peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) and exert potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It has also been shown that PPAR-gamma agonists induce G0/G1 arrest and apoptosis of malignant cells. Some of these effects have been suggested to result from inhibition of proteasome activity in target cells. The aim of our studies was to critically evaluate the cytostatic/cytotoxic effects of one of thiazolidinediones (pioglitazone) and its influence on proteasome activity. Pioglitazone exerted dose-dependent cytostatic/cytotoxic effects in MIA PaCa-2 cells. Incubation of tumor cells with pioglitazone resulted in increased levels of p53 and p27 and decreased levels of cyclin D1. Accumulation of polyubiquitinated proteins within cells incubated with pioglitazone suggested dysfunction of proteasome activity. However, we did not observe any influence of pioglitazone on the activity of isolated proteasome and on the proteolytic activity in lysates of pioglitazone-treated MIA PaCa-2 cells. Further, treatment with pioglitazone did not cause an accumulation of fluorescent proteasome substrates in transfected HeLa cells expressing unstable GFP variants. Our results indicate that pioglitazone does not act as a direct or indirect proteasome inhibitor. 相似文献
